Mass tourism hits tourism hotspots very strongly. It creates the following issues:

an increase in the cost of living

a decrease of the quality of life (people blocking entire areas, leaving trashes…)

the disappearance of the job opportunities outside of the cheap tourism industry

the disappearance of the local shops catering to the locals

the disappearance of a unique culture and of unique know hows

development of a monoculture of tourism of low quality

a high level of air pollution

the destruction of the environment

the endangering of the architectural heritage of the city

and more

All of this can result in local populations leaving their city, in mass. In Venice, Italy, for example 70% of the residents left in the past 70 years.

hope this answer helpful u

Answer:

Tourist behaviour can lead to locals feeling that their culture and beliefs are minimised. Tourists bring money which can breathe new life into neglected areas. Local languages might be lost as people prefer to use international languages such as English. Local crafts might be revived to be sold to the tourist market.
