receptive tourism is showing progress in the various countries of Latin America. Grows the number of visitors, and with them the income they leave behind. So the figures reveal that the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) recently published in one of his Statistical Papers.

Given the importance of the activity, not only as a generator of foreign exchange but also employment (because thanks to it's business energize airlines, travel agencies, car rentals, restaurants, centers lodging, sale of handicrafts, and many more) it is logical that governments work to promote it. Obviously, results are different in each country, depending on the particular conditions existing in them. Some have the advantage of being close to major tourist source, others the appeal of its history and culture, and others the beauty of its beaches and landscapes, and has also, of course, who can boast all these advantages.

According to ECLAC, the country with more inbound tourism revenue in 2009 was Mexico, which received more than $ 12 billion. Undoubtedly, the wide variety of attractions and the proximity to the world's leading economic power, which annually sends a large contingent of visitors, is crucial for this excellent performance. A great distance

followed Brazil, which had revenues of over U.S. $ 5.600 million. There is no doubt that the South American giant has a very good reputation as a travel destination.

In the third place was Argentina (another country with strong appeal and receiving a massive influx of Brazilian visitors) and fourth in a very small country, but much sought by the beauty of its landscapes and beaches : Dominican Republic.

Our country, seventh in this ranking, earned revenues of U.S. $ 2.440 million (according to data Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism). By comparing this figure to U.S. $ 837 million in 2002 can properly appraise experienced great improvement. In 2010, the figure has risen considerably, to $ 2.741 million, contributed by 2.3 million people. Of that total, Chileans and Americans, in that order, are our most frequent visitors.

While the larger countries of the region's tourism income is not too large a contribution in respect of its GDP (in Brazil represents 0.3% and 1.4% in Mexico) in the smaller countries do have a weight relevant. An example is Uruguay, where the tourist income is equivalent to no less than 4.5% of their product.
