This study aimed to understand the tourist attractions, major tourism products and their assessment in Manaslu Conservation Area of Nepal MCA). MCA is a place well known both, nationally and internationally, for its scenic beauty, unique ecology, and rich cultural heritage, given by its geographic position and unique topography. The number of tourists visiting this area has been increasing every year. In 2001 the tourist flow was only 798 whereas in 2019 it was 7655. Such tourism growth has several socio-economic and cultural consequences. Along with the increased number of tourists, tourism focused facilities and infrastructures like hotels and tea shops are also increasing in the area. There are 127 hotels with 1328 rooms and 2827 beds (as of 2019) providing food and accommodation services for the visitors. However, even though there are many potential areas for tourism development in the Manaslu Conservation Area, because of less promotional practices, there is very little tourism activity in the region. With the area's diverse physiography, unique landscape, biodiversity and the social-cultural dimension of the villages, the area could provide plenty of attractions for tourism.

Mobilising the economic potential of the intangible cultural heritage, using it as the tourist attractions is in modern conditions the basis for sustainable development of historical settlements and historic areas. Bolgar Historical and Archaeological complex has passed a period of its formation and now is one of the largest and interesting conservation areas in the Russian Federation. Every year the tourist flow here is growing. Theatrical meeting in national traditions give a unique local flavor and are very popular among tourists. However, museum tourism product experiences a lack of ethnic component; and local population, irritated by mass tourist arrivals, is isolated from its formation.

Os lugares sagrados são espaços delimitados por indivíduos que lhe conferem significado diferenciado. Mesmo assim, esta característica não impede que tais espaços sejam apropriados como atrativos turísticos. O Centro Bom Jesus de Nazaré é um exemplo de como esses dois fenômenos estão relacionados. Localizado no Sítio da Jacuba, em Natividade (TO), o espaço é composto por monumentos escultóricos a céu aberto construídos por Mãe Romana a partir de suas visões místicas. Pela singularidade do seu trabalho, o sítio atrai visitantes ao longo do ano. Este artigo analisou a dinâmica neste lugar que é sagrado e turístico ao mesmo tempo, por meio de uma revisão histórica sobre os seguintes conceitos: sagrado, turismo e legado cultural; partindo também da percepção dos sujeitos que nele habitam. A pesquisa, de caráter qualitativo, foi construída a partir de revisão bibliográfica e entrevista semiestruturada in situ com a entrevistada 01, irmã de Mãe Romana. Por meio delas, foi possível perceber uma relação ambivalente a respeito da prática turística que ali acontece, em que ela contribui para a valorização do lugar e de seus moradores, ao mesmo tempo em que é promotora de instabilidades. Este trabalho se apresenta como um passo inicial na análise da atividade turística como vetor de valorização deste patrimônio, ao mesmo tempo em que propõe uma análise crítica sobre seus impactos.Palavras-chave: Turismo; Legado Cultural; Mãe Romana de Natividade; Sagrado.  MOTHER ROMANA'S SACRED LABYRINTH: TOURISM AND CULTURAL HERITAGE IN BOM JESUS DE NAZARÉ CENTER IN NATIVIDADE, TOCANTINS, BRAZIL Abstract: Sacred places are spaces delimited by certain individuals that give it a differentiated meaning. Even so, this feature does not prevent such spaces from being used as tourist attractions. Bom Jesus de Nazaré Center is an example of how these two phenomena are related. Located on the site of Jacuba, in Natividade (state of Tocantins, Brazil), the space is composed of open air sculptural monuments built by Mãe Romana according to her mystical visions. Due to the unique characteristics of her work and monuments, the site attracts many visitors throughout the year. This article analyzed the dynamics in this place that is sacred and touristic at the same time, through a historical review on the following concepts: sacred, tourism and cultural heritage; and from the perception of the individuals who inhabit it. The research, of an exploratory nature, was built from bibliographic review and semi-structured interview in situ in Natividade. Through them, it was possible to perceive an ambivalent relation regarding the tourist practice that happens there, in which it contributes to the valorization of the place and of its inhabitants, at the same time that tourism can produce conflicts due to the flow of people. This work is presented as an initial step in the analysis of tourism activity as a vector for valuing this heritage, while proposing a critical analysis of its impacts.Keywords: Tourism; Cultural Legacy; Romana Mother of Natividade; Sacred.

Aun así, esta característica no impide que se conviertan también en atractivos turísticos. El Centro Bom Jesus de Nazaré es un ejemplo de cómo estos dos fenómenos están relacionados.

Esta investigación, de carácter cualitativo, se constituyó a partir de un trabajo de revisión bibliográfica y una entrevista semiestructurada in situ. A partir de estos procedimientos, se pudo percibir una relación ambivalente acerca de la práctica turística que allí se desarrolla, que contribuye a la valorización del lugar y a sus habitantes, al mismo tiempo que promueve inestabilidades. Este trabajo se presenta como un paso inicial en el análisis de la actividad turística como una vía de valorización de este patrimonio, al mismo tiempo que propone un análisis crítico acerca de sus respectivos impactos.Palabras Clave: Turismo; Legado cultural; Madre Romana de la Natividade; Sagrado.

This chapter aims at understanding the Rooster of Barcelos (Galo de Barcelos) as local intangible cultural heritage, being the case study of a research leading to the proposal of this explanatory model for developing and implementing tourism creative destinations. The Barcelos Rooster is the result of two ancestral customs of this territory, namely handicrafts and the Jacobin legend of the miracle of the rooster. These two customs, eternalized in time, were associated by the intervention of tourism. In addition, handicrafts, the Camino de Santiago, gastronomy (roast rooster from this legend), wine (vinho verde) and the traditional market, and heritage associated with the Rooster of Barcelos emerge as the main tourist attractions of this territory. It might be concluded that the Rooster of Barcelos, as one of the main symbols of Portuguese tourism, local heritage, and tourism product honey pot has the potential to leverage the sustainable development of this territory as a creative tourist destination.

Currently, many states face the threat to lose the national identity, and all progressive mankind should be worried about it. Therefore, the issues related to the preservation of cultural heritage today are quite topical. This primarily applies to intangible cultural heritage, which includes such elements as oral traditions, performing arts, ritual and game culture, methods and technology, in other words the certain cultural spaces. Russia also pays a lot of attention to the identification and preservation of the national intangible cultural heritage. If only two objects are included in the List of UNESCO intangible cultural heritage, so the similar lists of objects of federal importance comprise about a hundred. It’s only the beginning. This article examines the cultural space that is worthy to be included in the List of intangible cultural heritage of humanity. It is based on the culture of the East Slavic tribe of Vyatichi, who settled in the VIII–XII centuries the South-Eastern part of present-day Central Federal District. During the later centuries, this cultural space was developed by the residents of Moscow, Ryazan, Kaluga, Tula, Orel and other Russian provinces (oblasts). To date, cultural space, formed by the descendants of the Vyatichi, represents a unique tourism product that has a sufficiently high attractiveness. The article also discusses the possibility of the implementation of this tourism product in certain entities of the Russian Federation

ABSTRAKIndonesia adalah Negara yang dibentuk oleh banyak kerajaan lokal yang kemudian bergabung menjadi sebuah republik yang sekarang dikenal sebagai Republik Indonesia. Setelah bergabung dengan republik, kerajaan-kerajaan ini kehilangan kekuasaan dan legitimasi mereka terhadap masyarakat dan tanah diberikan kepada pemerintah. Kondisi ini menyebabkan kerajaan tidak lagi memiliki pendapatan untuk mendukung warisan budaya mereka. Beberapa dari kerajaan diambil alih oleh pemerintah untuk dijadikan museum. Meskipun banyak memiliki warisan budaya tetapi kerajaan tidak menarik untuk dikunjungi oleh wisatawan karena banyak warisan budaya yang tidak dipelihara dengan baik dan dilindungi sehingga membuat warisan budaya yang ada mulai dilupakan. Puri Anyar Kerambitan, Bali adalah salah satu dari beberapa kerajaan yang dapat bertahan hidup dengan mengembangkan wisata budaya dan menjual kebiasaan dan warisan keluarga kerajaan seperti makan malam kerajaan, tarian kerajaan dan pernikahan kerajaan. Aktivitas pariwisata tidak hanya menghidupkan kembali kerajaan tetapi juga masyarakat sekitar dan kekaisaran sebagai pusat budaya yang kembali muncul. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan metode deskriptif dan wawancara dilakukan kepada pemangku kepentingan pariwisata untuk mengetahui persepsi mereka terhadap pengembangan wisata kerajaan di Puri Anyar Kerambitan. Hasil dari penelitian yang dilakukan ditemukan bahwa kegiatan pariwisata yang dikembangkan oleh keluarga kerajaan memiliki dampak positif pada kesejahteraan masyarakat dan mendirikan tempat wisata baru yang belum dikenal oleh masyarakat luas, terutama wisatawan karena mereka dapat lebih mengetahui bagaimana kehidupan keluarga kerajaan di zaman kuno. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui bagaimana suatu kerajaan dapat menghidupkan kembali kekayaan budayanya setelah adanya kegiatan pariwisata sehingga dapat menjadi contoh bagi kerajaan lain yang memiliki masalah yang sama. Kata Kunci: Kerajaan, Pariwisata, Bali  REVIVING THE ROYAL KINGDOM THROUGH TOURISM(Case Study Of The Puri Anyar Kerambitan, Bali, Indonesia) ABSTRACTIndonesia is a State that is  formed by many local kingdoms which later merged into a republic now known as the Republic of Indonesia.

Purpose In 2011, UNESCO recommended the application of a value-based landscape approach to cultural heritage conservation. In this framework, culture in its manifold expressions is considered as an embrace for the social, economic, and environmental pillars of sustainable development. There is a need to unveil the different cultural values generated from the interaction between people and their environment since these values will help cities maintain their unique identity and integrity. Accordingly, the purpose of this paper is to present the results of a survey method intended to assess the range of cultural values attributed by people to the historic urban landscape (HUL). Design/methodology/approach This paper is an experimental enquiry that combines a qualitative and a quantitative approach. It is designed to distinguish the different interpretations and outlooks of people to the HUL. It integrates landscape preference studies with investigation on representative images of the city and assesses these in relation to activities, feelings, and valued aspects of landscapes. Findings The main finding is that the most preferred scenes of the city are not the ones that best represent the city. Results exposed two sides of the HUL and related heritage values. The first is associated with the scenic beauty of the landscape and its aesthetic values, while the second is reflected in ordinary landscapes and everyday practices. Originality/value This paper provides an insight into the different interpretations and meanings of the HUL throughout the city. It provides an empirical evidence that ordinary landscapes are of great heritage value as they surpass all aspects of human environmental interaction to contribute to the image that societies make of themselves.

Scholarship negotiating African folktales and the entire folkloric tradition in Africa has always been constituted as harbouring fundamental lacks. One of these lacks is the supposed incapacity of oral cultures to produce high literature. However, it is true that folktales and other oral forms in Africa can participate actively in the social, political and cultural process. In this paper, we engage folktales told by the Tiv of central Nigeria and situate them within the dynamic of history, culture, modernity and national construction in Nigeria. The paper adopts a historicist and culturalist perspective in its interpretation of the folktales which were collected in particular Tiv communities. This methodological approach helps to crystallize the historical and cultural lineaments embedded in the people’s experiences, values and worldviews. It also constitutes a contextual background for the understanding of the folktales as they offer informed commentaries on social currents and political contingencies in Nigeria. It argues that though folktales belong to a pre-scientific and pre-industrial dispensation, they are part of the people’s intangible cultural heritage and are capable of distilling powerful statements which negotiate Nigerian modernity and postcolonial condition. The paper underscores the dynamism and functionality of folktales even in an increasingly globalised ethos.
