Abstract

Literary Tourism (Literature Tourism / Literature Journey) concept is no stranger to travel organizations in the world. In Asia alone, forms of literary travel are often incorporated into tour programs such as visiting a writer’s homeland, visiting the place where the author was buried, visiting the places referred to in a work, dressing up as a character in a work, enjoying an extract from a work, shopping souvenirs related to a work, etc. In Asia, many countries such as China, Japan, South Korea, India, Arabia, Egypt, Turkey, etc all use cultural and literary strength to develop literary tourism.
