Literary tourism happens when authors or their works of literature become so well-known that visitors are drawn to either the places where the authors were born, lived, or died, or the places where their works have been based (Busby & Klug, 2001). The practice of visiting locations linked to authors, characters, or works of literature is known as literary tourism.
This could involve going to an author’s tomb, a place where they currently live or once lived, the setting of a book, or even the path travelled by a fictitious character. Insofar as they may see or touch items or memorabilia connected with the authors (or their writings), visiting such locations enables literary admirers to interact with the authors they respect.
England is the most popular location for book tourists, and London and Stratford are well-known because of world-renowned Shakespeare. Shakespeare’s Globe is a contemporary recreation of the Elizabeth Globe Theater in Southward, London, which was the setting for several of William Shakespeare’s plays.

Impact of COVID-19
The tourism industry was one of the best-performing industries in many different parts of the world. The rise of the tourism industry was crucial for many nations’ economic progress. Many nations locked their borders and went into lockdown as soon as the COVID-19 pandemic was declared in order to stop the virus from spreading. Travel restrictions were in place, and only necessities like food and medical care were available during the pandemic.
The epidemic caused a great deal of damage to the tourism industry. There were no tourists at tourist attractions because everyone was in lockdown in their homes and transportation was suspended. The marketing industry for these places went out of business along with the tourism industry.
Following the pandemic’s halt, tour operations in the literary tourism industry increased. The consumer demand increased gradually before skyrocketing once the restrictions were completely abolished. Due to the repressed demand for travel, the businesses received a large number of customers right once, which helped the market’s condition and put it on a growth trajectory.
