THE IMPORTANCE OFTRAVELLING
OR, PLEASURES OFTRAVELLING
OR, TRAVELLING AND ITS EDUCATIONALVALUE
OR, TRAVELLING
Home keeping youths have homely wits"', says a man of learning. This
means that unless people travel, they cannot enlarge the experiences oftheir life
Variety is the spice oflife and travelling provides this variety. Thatis, travelling
serves two primary purposes: knowledge and entertainment.
While travelling a man comes across strange people, He exchanges views
with them. He learns something new. He has to adapt himselfto new situations.
He has to practise tolerance. That is, travelling teaches a man how he should
exercise control over his emotions.
Awareness of human life is widened by travelling. People travel from one
place to another. They meet people of different castes, creeds and religions.
They meet people of different customs and superstitions. What he have learnt
through books is verified. When people visit the places ofhistorical importance
theirhistorical curiosity is satisfied. A visitto Kashmir orto a valley of mountains,
rivers and rivulets enriches the knowledge of geography. A travel to vou
h orto Gangotri makes the traveller conversant with the religíous past of
the country.
while travelling educates the sensibility of the traveller, it also fills him
with delight. Woods and rills, snow-capped mountains and gurglingrivers bring
to him sweet delight. It is thus evident that travelling is both edifying and
amusing. Bacon has rightly pointed out Travelling in younger sort is a part of
education; in youth a part of experience.
