The term "gift shop" refers to a retail store that primarily sells items such as souvenirs, decorative objects, and small gifts. These types of stores are often found in tourist attractions, museums, hotels or other places where visitors may be inclined to purchase memorabilia or trinkets related to the location they're visiting. Gift shops can also carry a variety of items such as clothing, jewelry, books and stationery, snacks and drinks, and other miscellaneous items that make for popular souvenirs or gifts. The primary goal of gift shops is to provide visitors with convenient and affordable options for taking home memories from their trip or experience.
