Destinazione turistica e networks interni ed esterni: il turismo relazionale

In this context, the tourism of the roots or return tourism is motivated by a need to rediscover their origins, discover them, or trace them in places related to the history of travellers or their families.

No full textThe results of scientific research confirm that the condition of insularity is an issue that still needs broad sharing and specific policies. The issues to be addressed are widespread in all territorial contexts, large or small. Insularity is a permanent structural constraint.

The Impact of Architecture in the Hospitality Industry: The Decision Choice in the Case of Cyprus Island
Full text linkIn an increasingly competitive market, hospitality architecture design can be significant for tourism and destinations. This article addresses the role of hotel architecture in tourism destinations and the case of Cyprus Island. The tourist market is dominated by international groups and brands, which develop modern architecture and design for the hotels industry creating a new attraction based on architectural design. This paper examines the role of architecture in hospitality accommodation by considering the demand side. The survey was based on a questionnaire and applied multinomial regression models. The results show that hotel architecture impact can influence the selection of the destination for a visit in a way, but it is not the decisive criterion. A tourist destination choice depends on a bundle of factors, such as the location, budget, and facilities. Therefore, hotel architecture in Cyprus does not seem to influence the visitor's choice significantly. The building facilities and proximity to attractions are more critical factors for tourism on the island
