Architecture and urbanity of tourism

Abstract

Tourism today reflects the limits of urban planning: sedentary and nomadic lifestyles. There is an overlap between different city users and geographical environments - sedentary and nomadic - which define a dynamic space that works with the existing historic fabric, comes face to face with the seasonal trends of tourist arrivals and are is to bring together those outstanding facets that defy the rules of the physical city. Tourism can be planned, not only by defining accommodation and hotel structures, but by focusing on identifying the main elements of urban transformation and areas where planning can emphasize the elements of the territory destined for "reception" along interconnecting chains. We can speak of "tourist urbanity" as a large floating urban mosaic, capable of maintaining the links between episodes that belong to the cultural fabric of cities and the territory.
