What is a Souvenir?

Souvenirs are typically small, inexpensive items that remind the owner of special places or memories associated with the object. They are often given as spontaneous gifts and are usually some kind of collectible or whimsical bauble like a keychain, magnet, or other such decorative keepsakes. For most countries, the souvenir industry is an important part of the local economy, with many vendors making their livelihood by manufacturing and selling commemorative merchandise for tourists to enjoy and take home.
