A visitor center may be:
A visitor 
center
 at a specific attraction or place of interest, such as a 
landmark
, 
national park
, 
national 
forest
, or 
state park
, providing information (such as trail maps, and about camp sites, staff contact, 
restrooms, etc.) and in-depth educational exhibits and artifact displays (for example, about natural or 
cultural history). Often a film or other media display is used. If the site has permit requirements or 
guided tours, the visitor center is often the place where these are coordinated.
A 
tourist information center
, providing visitors to a location with information on the area's 
attractions, 
lodgings
, 
maps
, and other items relevant to tourism. Often, these centers are operated at 
the 
airport
 or other 
port of entry
, by the local 
government
 or 
chamber of commerce

center is called simply an 
information center
.
A corporate visitor center, provides visitors with an easily accessible window into the 
corporation.Visitor centers used to provide fairly basic information about the place, corporation or 
event they are celebrating, acting more as the entry way to a place. The role of the visitor center has 
been rapidly evolving over the past 10 years to become more of an experience and to tell the story of 
the place or brand it represents. Many have become destinations and experiences in their own right.
