Examining the connection between handicrafts and tourism, the challenges facing the growth of handicrafts in the tourism industry, and providing practical solutions to enhance the role of handicrafts in tourism
Abstract
Handicrafts and tourism, as two important economic and cultural sectors, are closely interconnected. Tourism, as one of the most important industries in the global economy, has wide-ranging impacts on the culture, society, and economy of countries. In this context, handicrafts, as an inseparable part of the cultural heritage of every nation, can play a key role in attracting tourists. Handicrafts not only reflect the culture, history, and identity of a country but also, due to their artistic and aesthetic values, have always attracted both domestic and international tourists. Iran, as one of the richest countries in the world in terms of handicraft diversity, has enormous potential to use this industry for attracting tourists.
