The Impact of Culture on Tourism examines the growing relationship between tourism
and culture, and the way in which they have together become major drivers of destination
attractiveness and competitiveness. Based on recent case studies that illustrate the
different facets of the relationship between tourism, culture and regional attractiveness,
and the policy interventions which can be taken to enhance the relationship, this
publication shows how a strong link between tourism and culture can be fostered to
help places become more attractive to tourists, as well as increasing their competitiveness
as locations which to live, visit, work and invest.
