Religious Sensitivity and Regenerative Tourism: Protecting the Spiritual Integrity of Sacred Spaces
Religious tourism is one of the fastest-growing forms of mobility, increasing pressure on sacred spaces and religious communities and raising questions about the preservation of their spiritual integrity. While sustainable tourism frameworks address environmental and socio-cultural impacts, they remain insufficient in capturing the relational and spiritual dimensions of sacred places. This study aims to conceptualize “religious sensitivity” as an…
The Brand Personality of World Heritage Sites: Text Mining the Perceptions of Unesco Experts and Visitors
World Heritage (WH) is acknowledged as a prominent tourism brand. However, research on the intangible relationship between World Heritage sites (WHSs) and outstanding universal values (OUVs) is lacking. This study employed advances in text mining, using digital textual data, and Brand Personality (BP) lexical methods to explore descriptions of WHSs. Although existing BP dictionaries are useful for measuring the personalities of destinations and a…

Brand personality positioning of world heritage sites: A text mining approach
World Heritage Sites (WHSs) are perceived as significant tourism brands. However, there is no in-depth analysis of the intangible meaning of World Heritage (WH) cultural attraction types from the visitor’s lens. This study employed text mining and a Brand Personality (BP) lexical approach using WH personality categories to identify types of cultural attractions with intangible meanings in WHSs located in seven countries in Asia and the Pacific an…
Participatory governance of intangible heritage to develop sustainable rural tourism: The timber-raftsmen of La Pobla de Segur, Spain
Rural areas face the challenge of managing intangible heritage in ways that avoid problems such as the loss of authenticity linked to over-tourism, or living heritage becoming disconnected from the local community due to overprotection. This study explores an innovative method for promoting a participatory governance process for intangible heritage currently managed on a non-participatory basis, in that the local community establishes a consensua…
Food and religion
Eating is essential to sustain life, but beyond satisfying physiological needs, food has close connections to other aspects of life. People’s alimentary behaviours are influenced by many sociocultural and economic factors, including religion and nationality. This chapter examines food as heritage and religious practice within the context of religious and spiritual tourism. It is divided into three sections, namely food and heritage as cultural pr…
Community-Based Tourism and Stakeholder’s Collaboration: Lessons between Mexico and Spain
Community-based tourism is widely advocated by academics and professionals as a potential contributor to the conservation and development of a tourism destination. However, other practitioners have questioned whether sustainability goals can be achieved through this form of tourism. Of the various factors reported in the literature that hinder the success of sustainable tourism, the lack of effective collaboration among stakeholders is prominent.…
Tourism and religion: Sacred spaces as transmitters of heritage values
Religious heritage can act as a transmitter of the age-old values linked to the identity of a territory, while reflecting on the relationship between the religious value and the monumental value of a place. This reflection is based on the initial premise that at present there are elements related to the architectural heritage of the church that have wholly or in part lost their use value as places of worship. After introducing the relationship be…
Monasteries and tourism: Interpreting Sacred Landscape Through Gastronomy
This article analyses the role of monasteries as a sacred space and how their relationship with tourism depicts a landscape of 'good taste'. Monasteries are examples of both tangible and intangible heritage, and are highly symbolic built spaces that have often become the guardians of tradition. They are strongly embedded within a local cultural landscape, which has determined their historical evolution. Monasteries used to be self-sufficient comm…
Structuration and branding of a religious tourism product: Catalonia Sacra
This article aims to provide an overview of the products Catalonia has to offer in terms of religious tourism. The growing interest in this kind of tourism worldwide, and in Catalonia itself, along with the region's wealth of religious heritage (particularly connected to the Christian Church) contrast with the lack of religion-based tourism products available, which results in its absence from the region's image as a tourism destination. In view …
