Is tourism exploiting the identities of other cultures? Or do you think it's actually bringing back folk cultural aspects in some ways? Share your standpoint.

Why not both? I'd say that it's exploiting it. Obviously, where foreigners go, there will be people to represent what their culture is, and was, and sometimes what is to come.
