They only refer to "Palestine" when discussing the borders of the geographic region of Palestine, not the proposed nation, and any connection would be when referencing the occupied Palestinian territories' borders, since some parts of the border are on the edge of the geographic region (ex. the Jordan River) so the report uses it interchangeably.

water park and you go you are not a tourist. I have been to a ton of "tourist" sites in
Chicago like the museums or the lakefront or the Sears tower or a number of other places. I was still just a local boy, not a tourist. But this is all personal interpretation (on my part and yours) and the solution for this is to actually find sources discussing tourism in Gaza.
494:
If anyone has sources about tourism to the Gaza Strip, by all means include content on this. I noted that there's no tourism due to Hamas' restrictions as that's what was said in the sources I found, but this doesn't preclude using other sources. Why does every article on Israel/Palestine have to get
963:
Hey, I just read this article and I saw some of the terminology is contradictory to UN standards, so to be more factual and accurate given the current situation I think we should make these changes: First, change the title, "Tourism in the state of
Palestine," to "Tourism in the Occupied Palestinian

The picture currently being used is one that was created during the
British Mandate. That is what it means when it says "Visit Palestine". To use that picture for an article about the Palestinian territories is misleading and confusing. Additionally, the picture shows Jerusalem, both west and East.
473:
Sure, they very well might. But like all things on
Knowledge, we need a source saying so. And the Gaza Strip at its widest point is 10 km from the sea. I personally would not call somebody who travels 10 km a "tourist". I lived about 10 miles from Lake Michigan. I went there quite often. At no time
546:
I am not disagreeing just for the sake of disagreeing, nor am I doing so because "to make sure that Israel looks bad" whatever that means. I disagree because "tourism" requires travel. Yes, the person flying to the city that has a water park is a tourist, but if you live down the block from that
404:, "Tourism is travel for recreational, leisure or business purposes." Just because there is tourism in Gaza, doesn't mean the siege is any less devastating. Including information to compare Gaza's tourism industry prior to and since the siege would be enlightening, if such information exists.--
893:
Change the title, "Tourism in the state of
Palestine," to "Tourism in the Occupied Palestinian Territories." Also change in the 2nd paragraph, "has not proven successful in Palestine," to "has not proven successful in the Occupied Palestinian Territories." Finally change in the 3rd paragraph,
894:"encourage international visits to Palestine," to, "encourage international visits to the Occupied Palestinian Territories." To keep this list in line with edit request guidelines, these requests do have a reliable source, as the official UN report on the area involving human rights (

It is silly to even be arguing whether tourism exists in Gaza or not. Gaza is mostly closed, yes, but inside of Gaza there is freedom of movement. Logically, someone from Rafah going to Gaza City is indeed tourism. Moreover,

Nableezy, internal tourism is tourism. If I go to a water park or if someone flies in from out of town and goes to the same park, it is still tourism. Please check out these pictures of tourism in Gaza:

You mean if somebody lives by the beach and goes to the beach they are a "tourist"? Or if the visit a relative a few towns down, they are a "tourist"? Maybe, but I dont see it.
