2. Master Introduction
The sustainable tourism is that tourism which can be sustainable and at the same time it will be long-lasting for the betterment of the country and tourists’ interests. Sustainable tourism leads to the engagement of management to all the essential resources which can be economical, cultural, social, historical and aesthetic (Bunakov, Zaitseva, Larionova, Chudnovskiy, Zhukova & Zhukov, 2015). These things can fulfil the need of the tourists’ interests. At the same time, the sustainable tourism maintains cultural integrity, important ecological process and movement, biological diversity and life support system of the environment. Tourism is a material of the economical growth for any country and it has majority in this.
Sustainable tourism is referred to a kind of tourism where economical, social, historical, environmental impacts are analysed thoroughly and carefully in order to improve the mutual respect between the tourists and the local communities (Edgell Sr, 2016). There are different kinds of characteristics from where it can be seen what sustainable tourism is. Tourism is to promote a country’s best place in order to make it famous among other countries. The place can be historical or aesthetic. The place can be in coastal areas, landscape areas or hilly regions. These places are becoming famous because the government developed the places and maintains the places to do business there. Sustainable tourism a type of tourism that focuses more on sustainable means to improve the tourist experience. It is originally a tourism business where a country and its tourists pay attention for the betterment of those attractive old beautiful places which give them pleasure.
The area of a country whether it is coastal area or hilly region, if there is any particular spot or many spots which can attract tourists then there may be sustainable tourism development. Tourism need to enhance the growth of the country’s economy and improve GDP (Hall, 2019). The tourism business companies need to extract the influence on becoming tourist places whether it is coastal area, ecosystem, landscape, hilly region and cultural heritage.
Before starting to know what the negative impacts on the sustainable tourism are, it is important to know the essence of sustainable tourism. Sustainable tourism is that which can improve the wellbeing and prosperity of the communities and the environment of the Earth. Sustainable eco tourism development always appreciates and supports the economical, social, cultural, political, financial improvement and well being of the communities in which the tourism takes part and ensures the economical growth of that particular country.

The management is here the two stakeholders who can take decisions for the tourism business. The power of making decisions of the stakeholders is very much important for the sustainability of tourism development. The main managerial approach for the sustainable tourism development is a systematic approach (Sardianou, Kostakis, Mitoula, Gkaragkani, Lalioti & Theodoropoulou, 2016). This systematic approach integrates government plans for tourism, natural resources management, cultural, economic and social development, infrastructure and the risk management. The systematic approach defines how tourism in certain will be built up. Here it conveys the tasks of the government and the plans and infrastructure system of a business. The systems will show how a tourism business will set up. In order to achieve the competitive tendency in the approach the government will implement some strategies to develop those places of interests.

The destination management organization (DMO) can build a managerial approach to make it sure about the development of the systems of local resources for lasting longer.
