A UN Tourism observance focused on travel, culture, local economies, and hospitality.
A day for the rain people hope for, prepare for, complain about, celebrate, and remember.
The day is observed in Nigeria with events promoting the country's tourist attractions, and the focus is on the natural beauty of Nigeria (the Yankari Game Reserve, the Obudu Mountain Resort, the Zuma Rock, the Olumo Rock, and the Nike Art Gallery). The tourism industry in Nigeria is underdeveloped (the country receives only 1.5 million tourists per year), and the day is a reminder of the potential that has not yet been realized.
You discover Sri Lanka's unique leopards, Asian elephants, and colorful Sri Lankan junglefowl throughout the island's forests and parks. You observe that Sri Lankan families typically keep chickens, water buffalo, and domestic dogs as their most common household animals. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
