Abstract | Heritage tourism is becoming an increasingly significant component of the global tourism industry. The growth in popularity of recreated and reinterpreted past has had profound influences on the presentation and representation of both tangible and intangible heritage within the tourism context. Heritage is both a complex and multi-faceted concept. It continues to evolve with fast changing political, economic and socio-cultural surroundings. Therefore, it is essential that heritage tourism needs to engage with the new forms of globalised communities and societies, which have become more assimilated to each other but yet strive to sustain their own distinctive locality. |
