Download or read book Visitor Attractions and Events written by Adi Weidenfeld and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-28 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Both visitor attractions and events play pivotal roles in the appeal of tourism destination regions to visitors by virtue of being the main motivator of tourist trips and determining consumers’ choices. However, more recently visitor attractions have become more multifaceted, have proliferated and fragmented in terms of form, location, scale and style, and their role is undergoing major changes in a post-modern world as a result of consumer demands and competitive innovations. Visitor Attractions and Events for the first time theoretically and empirically explores the relations between events and attractions to offer new thinking of the role of space and place in shaping development, management practices and strategies in the sector as well as future implications. The book reveals how location is pivotal in the development, planning, and management of visitor attractions and events. Whereas the location of natural attractions is relatively fixed in space and their locations cannot be predetermined or relocated, human-made or contrived attractions are more influenced by the planning process in the context of the locational decision-making process. Competition and cooperation between visitor attractions and the aspects which shape these relations, including complementarities, compatibility, knowledge spill overs and diffusion of innovations, product similarities and spatial proximity remain largely ignored in the visitor attraction sector and thus are major elements in the focus of this book. Comparative examples ranging from small to major attractions in a wide variety of locations are included. This significant volume will appeal widely to all those interested in the visitor sector, such as tourism, events, leisure studies, destination management and sociology.

Now he's stuck slinging reindeer dogs to an endless parade of resort visitors who couldn't interest him less. Not even the sweet, enthusiastic tourist in the corner who blushes every time he looks her way... Two weeks in Alaska isn't just the top item on Zoey Caldwell's bucket list. It's the whole bucket. One look at the mountain town of Moose Springs and she's smitten. But when an act of kindness brings Zoey into Graham's world, she may just find there's more to the grumpy local than meets the eye...and more to love in Moose Springs than just the Alaskan wilderness. This story of Alaska marries together all the things you didn't realize you needed: a whirlwind vacation, a friendly moose, a grumpy diner owner, a quirky tourist, plenty of restaurant humor, and a happy ending that'll take you away from it all.

India is a developing nation, and tourism provides emerging and developing nations with excellent opportunities to strengthen their economies, contribute to local infrastructure, preserve the environment and cultural treasures and traditions, and lessen poverty and inequality. The government is emphasising in developing and promoting tourism. It has also introduced various policies and schemes to boost the tourism industry by providing more job opportunities in the society. It has also started several short-term vocational courses related to the travel and tourism sector. With these courses, individuals can quickly acquire the necessary skills to join the travel industry. In addition, CBSE has introduced Tourism as a vocational course at the school level. In the previous class, you learned some basics of travel and tourism, and this book will extend your knowledge of those topics. This book will teach you about different types of tourism, tourism's social, economic, and cultural impact, tourism organisations, tourism businesses, and tourism products, as well as requirement of soft skills in tourism.
