Question

Where? and what media?

This will help me with my tourism assignment "How media affects tourism".

Answer 1

Do music videos count?

if so J.Holiday's video "Suffocate" influenced me to visit paris.

The book "Masquerade" By Melissa de la Cruz influenced me to visit Venice. The way she described the surroundings of her main character made Venice seem like a beautiful place.

Answer 2

Yes, I was interested in Oxford from the Inspector Morse books. When I was in the UK the first time, I made it a point to take one of the tours that included the town.

Part of the reason I first went to Prague was because I knew it was the location where several historical movies set in Europe in the 1700s had been filmed (e.g., Amadeus). and had also seen it in other films (e.g., Mission: Impossible)
