Description
Ishwar Book Creative Tourism by Choudhary
Tourists all over the world welcome unique creative experiences that enrich and inspire them when they travel. This is called "Creative Tourism," and it is different from other types of tourism. The Creative Tourism is considered a new generation of tourism by involving the tourists themselves and the locals in the creation of the tourist products (co-creation). Until five years ago the tourist was a creative person who practiced an artistic activity in the country of residence and wanted to improve it during the holidays (painting courses, dance, guitar, etc.), now there is a new trend, so tourists generally add to their traditional program of visits more creative and participatory activities, with the aim of living cultural and human experiences. The growing demand for Creative Tourism arouses the interest of the destination managers and local governments, seduced by the opportunity to attract a high value tourism by simply fostering their intangible heritage (workshops) and optimizing the use of existing infrastructures. The present book should be required reading for students, all tourism and community/economic/cultural development professionals, artists, and tourists who are seeking destinations that offer customized, creative, experiential, authentic, and meaningful experiences that are tied to the uniqueness and "spirit" of a place
