Abstract


Nowadays, inter religious dialogue is not a regional or national necessity. But it is necessary globally. Human being is social creature and needs dialogue. Directly and indirectly they have fulfilled all scientific and cultural accomplishment by dialogue. Undoubtedly, the growth of dialogue appreciates a important notion, grasping dialogue as one of the arts and skills for culture exchanging firmly. Religions are the most important factor in forming and diversity of culture. When religions agree with dialogue and the culture of dialogue is stabled among them, it eases dialogue in all aspects of cultures and civilizations, communication among societies will be possible. Tourism industry is one of the accomplishment of cultural dialogue which not only is a kind of industry but also it is a science, art and knowledge.

The interpretation of tourism as the acknowledgement of the global culture, having critic outlook toward oneself and others, paying attention to heritage makes everybody get new experience. Religious dialogue not only can have cultural perceptual and moral outcomes but also it requires challenge in the aspects of economy among different societies. Along with globalization, economy which play a major role in relations among nations and tribes, becomes stronger and creates some new ideas to make the economy not as a fixed power but as an issue which is growing daily that represents the growth and improvement of cultural tourism and uniting different nations as a result. This is achievable by shaping and reshaping the issue of inter religious dialogue. Tourism extends our knowledge and information in two way : we can know ourselves and others better.
