Gaochang is like Machu Picchu in that at one time it was a great city, but no one lives there any longer. The city lies in ruins. However it becomes a tourist attaction, showing the past prosperity.
2. Should tourism be stopped in places

like Machu Picchu Why or why not
Others think that tourism in such places shouldn’t be stopped because it allows us to enjoy the scenery, learn about culture and develop economy.
