Tourist POV: Fast Food Chains

Perspective

From a tourist's point of view, it is convenient to have fast food restaurants located at a lot of different places, because it allows them to take a break from having to try authentic local cuisine and just have something they know they will enjoy, and something they would have in their home country. This way, they know that they will enjoy the food served as they have had it before and it isn't something that is new or that doesn't suit their taste in food. Also, these fast food restaurants provide tourists a place to sit and relax and enjoy the usually air conditioned restaurant, and take a break from sight seeing or touring.

From a citizen's point of view:
mixed reactions.

The older generations might dislike it because it is causing the historical site to lose some value. Also, they might think that because of the fast food restaurants, the younger generations may be distracted by it and would not be able to learn much about that heritage site. On the other hand, the younger generation might agree to having these fast food restaurants because they can take a rest in an air conditioned place when the historical site is too big (eg. a palace) or they can just shield themselves from the heat (esp during the summer season).
