2 The resources in a destination can be classified into primary and secondary resources. Primary resources are natural resources (such as climate, scenery and ecosystems) and cultural resources (such as historical and religious buildings). They are what people go to see and form the basis for a place's tourist potential. Secondary resources include accommodation, eating places, entertainment, infrastructure (such as airports, motorways, railways), and guiding and information services. They are the facilities provided by governments, companies and individuals, without which mass tourism cannot take place. These determine the extent to which a place s tourist potential is realised.

16 The impact of tourism in Peru The increase of international tourism to Peru because of globalisation has aided in the development of Peru and the Peruvian people. As Peru industrialises by adding more infrastructure such as hotels or transportation methods, the economy and especially the environment are affected.
