travel journalism
Writing about places
Travel journalism is reporting that covers destinations, cultures, and the experience of traveling.
It ranges from service pieces recommending hotels and restaurants to immersive narratives about remote places.

Critics sometimes note tension between honest reporting and the free trips journalists accept from tourism boards.
