Architectural Tourism

Site-Seeing, Itineraries and Cultural Heritage

Beschreibung

This book charts the relationship between architecture and tourism. It asks why monuments and buildings attract and compel us to visit, why we feel the need to understand cities through architectural sites such as museums, historic sites and monuments, and how national identity is galvanised through its architecture and tourism.
