B&B is a small accommodation for tourists by using local houses near the scenic spot, and the host participates in the reception work. Living in B&B can help you understand the local customs. B&B is different from hotels or restaurants. B&B is different from traditional hotels. It may not have high-end luxury facilities, but it can make people feel the local customs, the enthusiasm and service of the owners, and experience a life different from the past.

There are many theories about the origin of B&B. Some studies say that B&B comes from Japan, while others say that it comes from France. The word Discovery B&B is more from Britain.

In the early1960s, in order to increase income, host families began to appear in sparsely populated farmhouses in southwest and central England. At that time, there were not many homestays, b&; B's mode of operation, which belongs to family reception, is the earliest homestay in Britain.

Tourist homestays are divided into two grades, golden cabins and silver cabins. Jinsu grade is high grade, and Yin Shu grade is ordinary grade. The higher the grade, the higher the reception facilities and service quality.

B&B has a long history in Taiwan Province. The earliest large-scale B&B development zone was Kenting National Park, which lasted about 198 1 year. It was originally intended to solve the problem of insufficient accommodation. It's just a simple type of accommodation, without tour guides and catering services. Due to the lack of hotel accommodation or services in the recreation area, or the reasons of borrowing houses and jobs in mountain areas for mountaineering travel, people who have vacant houses are interested in hanging hotel signs, or go directly to hotel gates, stations and other places to attract tourists, and this industry has emerged.
