The Online Travel Booking Services is the modern way of attracting people for the tourism industry. The tourism has become so easy because of this service and there are lots of improvements needed for this industry as whole. There are OTBS functions even for middle class people or salaried person who cannot afford costlier services. So there are few online tourist websites which provide quality service at a cheaper cost which is a great advantage for middle class people. This would increase the revenue of the tourism industry which is in turn an advantage for the government. The more detailed and beautiful websites attracts more tourists as they have a glimpse of what is available in the place and all the details about their travel. So our government should take keen action on developing more services regarding to OTBS which is the future of tourism industry.

Thomas Ubbesen reviews Tourism and Travel during the Cold War: Negotiating Tourist Experiences across the Iron Curtain, edited by Sune Bechmann Pedersen and Christian Noack.

The Iron Curtain was not an impenetrable divide, and contacts between East and West took place regularly and on various levels throughout the Cold War. This book explores how the European tourist industry transcended the ideological fault lines and the communist states attracted an ever-increasing number of Western tourists. Based on extensive original research, it examines the ramifications of tourism, from sun-and-sea package tours to human rights travels, in key Eastern European locations including East Berlin, the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, and Albania. The book's analysis of the politics, culture, and history of tourism to the East offers important new perspectives on European tourism in the twentieth century.
