INTRUDUCTION THE ROLE OF ATTRACTIONS IN TOURISM:
- Attractions are the most important component in the tourism system. Attractions are the main motivators for tourist trips and are the core of the tourism product. Without attractions there would be no need for other tourism services.
5
DEFINITION, TYPOLOGY A tourist attraction is a place of interest where tourists visit Typology of tourist attractions or visitors attractions
8
THE VISITOR ATTRACTION AS A PRODUCT (SERVICE PRODUCT)
The staff involved in producing and delivering the product are part of the product itself. Their attitudes, behaviour and appearance are crucial to the way the product is perceived by the customer. Customers are directly exposed to the strengths and weaknesses of the staff in services, whereas they never see the people who produce manufactured products generally.This is clearly true for attractions such as events, and for purpose-built attractions, hence the emphasis placed on staff recruitment, training and performance by Disney at its theme parks. The same phenomenon exists for most natural attractions but it may be harder to see as customers may not come into contact with the service deliverers, for example, the people who maintain footpaths and those who clean the beaches.
9
THE VISITOR ATTRACTION AS A PRODUCT (SERVICE PRODUCT)
The customers themselves are involved in the production process. Their use of the product will reflect their own attitudes, expectations and experiences; in other words, they will customize the product to some degree. Therefore, for an elderly person a heritage centre which looks at the period when they were a child will be a very different product than it will be for a child growing up today for whom the heritage centre tells stories about things which are totally outside their own experience, and about which they have no strong feelings. The product is therefore different for every customer and to some extent they shape the product in their own image. This is true for all types of attractions from cathedrals to forests to theme parks.
10
THE VISITOR ATTRACTION AS A PRODUCT (SERVICE PRODUCT)
Service products are not standardized. The production process is a continuous one with the customer directly involved and the product changing all the time to reflect the changing relationship between the service, the deliverer, the customer and the resources on which the product is based. This is very important when it comes to the development of quality management systems and is in direct contrast to manufactured goods where the production process generally guarantees standardization, except in the case of malfunctions. In this respect attractions are clearly services and their product is never standardized. For example, the product of a theme park is constantly changing, depending on factors such as the attitude of the staff, and the weather.
11
THE VISITOR ATTRACTION AS A PRODUCT (SERVICE PRODUCT)
The product is perishable and cannot be stored. It is produced and consumed at one and the same time.
12
Factors of development of tourist attraction sector
16
FREE TIME Currently, free time resources are 1200 hours larger than at the end of the last century. The process of increasing the amount of free time concerns changes on the labor market and is manifested in the following forms: Shortening working hours during the day, Shortening work days during the week, Introducing and gradually extending paid holidays, Shortening working years (pension legislation) Extending the period of compulsory education)
19
Target markets HOW can we divide clients on the tourist attractions market (market segmentation criteria)?
21
THE DEVELOPMENT OF TOURIST ATTRACTIONS – External conditions and internal conditions
The development of tourism is both a consequence of external and internal factors (conditions)
22
External and internal conditions
External conditions are characterized by the fact that local authorities in the area/ travel agencies / hotels can not directly be affected, but the way they use them or adjust their activity to their impact can affect a number of important areas of local development, including the development of tourism and tourism businesses Internal conditions are under direct or indirect influence of the local / regional and national authorities/ tourism businesses, who can shape and direct their development.

External conditions
24
Tourism and Globalization
Globalization has played a major role in the second half of the 20th century and its importance has been increasing even more in the 21st century. The opinions about globalization are controversial. There are many individuals, organizations and countries that support globalization wholeheartedly and others that are totally against it and want to go back to the “good old days when there was no globalization”.
25
GLOBALIZATION The main factors influencing the processes of globalization in tourism : information revolution and the development of mass media, technical progress in transport, integration processes and the introduction of liberal conditions for the development of trade , large size of tourism demand , international competition
26
Tourism and Globalization
Globalization is international integration that is a result of exchange of ideas from all parts of the world. One of the most important results of globalization is the rapid growth of international tourism. The number of international flights and for shorter distances, buses and trains has been increasing worldwide and transportation has become faster, more secure and more comfortable. Moreover, you can plan better your trip using Internet… or even by calling your landlord or the hotel receptionist on their cell phone – something that was not possible even 20 years ago.

29
The role and importance of the internet in selling and promotion of tourism services and tourism services booking and sales The trend of online participants records growth from 10% in 2000 to 70% in 2012. In France, the percentage of online users was 77.2% in In Germany, the percentage of online users was even greater – 87% in This huge interest that has doubled in the past decade supports the fact that population recognized the importance and benefits of innovative tools.

32
Tourism and Globalization
Tourism provides economic growth, improves infrastructure and creates more jobs but, at the same time, causes pollution and has a negative impact on environment. Sustainable tourism and ecotourism are just a few of the solutions offered to solve these issues and they will be covered during the conference, as well. Other topics covered include tendencies in international tourism, future of globalization, hidden globalization effects, being a global citizen and others.
33
The characteristics of globalization in tourism
34
The impact of globalization on tourism
Clearly noticeable aspect of globalization, which significantly affects the directions of development of tourism at the local level is the phenomenon of homogenization of demand (more broadly, the homogenization of culture ), and the standardization and unification of life. These phenomena help global companies to expand the area of operations.
35
The impact of globalization on tourism
At the same globalization may lead to loss of cultural diversity of tourist areas, as well as traditional social ties, customs, local traditions. Seeing the negative consequences of these processes , local authorities are trying to limit their effects by enhancing the process of regionalization.
36
Opportunities • Access to the global market • The shrinking of the world through the facilitation of the transport and medium (mainly thanks to the Internet). • The influx of modern technologies. • The growing burden of work and live in large urban areas, need for rest, contact with nature.
37
Threats • Enhanced competition. • The inflow of foreign capital, crowding out local businesses. • Dissemination of global culture, the disappearance of traditional values, ties and regional identities. • spatial transformations, the development of large urban centers without respect for the natural environment and cultural heritage.
38
Demographic change and particularly the rising number of older groups within the population
39
The rising number of aging societies
The growth in the number of pensioners (retirees) could affect the tourist market in 3 ways 1) seasonal trips to Europe will lose their importance as this part of population is not limited to holidays; 2) the prices will be more flexible as pensioners can adapt to the trip duration; 3) increased importance of tourist trips at the expense of business ones (because most Europeans older than 60 are no longer employed full-time).
40
demographic change The growing importance of single travelers
1) leads to more cross-border and overseas trips by the population aged between 16 and 35. Since younger people have busy work schedule, and they are under pressure due to strong competition in the labour market, they have less free time, therefore short holiday trips with organized offseason events are appealing to that market segment.
41
Responding to the growth in tourism from emerging markets
The impact can already be seen in patterns of overseas travel into the United States. In 2014, more than half of all overseas travelers (excluding Canada and Mexico) to the US come from emerging markets – versus in 2000 only a third of overseas travelers coming into the US came from emerging countries. Within the next decade the number of households making at least US$100,000 annually will increase by 30 million, with one out of three of these households located in emerging markets. And just as affluence in these markets continues to rapidly grow, so does their spending on travel. Since 2012 Chinese tourists (have overtaken their American and German counterparts) are the highest spenders when vacationing and sightseeing overseas. In 1998 only 8 milion Chinese took trips abroad; in 2012 it was about 100 milion.

43
How are tourist destinations responding to the visitors from emerging markets?
Organizations such as state tourism departments, hoteliers and tour guides are exploring ways to reach consumers from emerging markets 1) from promoting their brand to foreign tour operators (tourist fair); 2) training their staff in language and cultural skills; 3) adaptation of food in hotels and restaurants to the eating habits of tourists coming, providing home comforts such as rice porridge on its breakfast menu and familiar teas in the rooms In the UK, Harrods has installed special China Union pay terminals and trained staff the right way to handle credit card (reverently, and with both hands outstretched).

Key elements in the product creation process
Graph shows the key elements in which the tourism product creation process is divided. There are 5 different areas and the result is the stimulation of tourist consumption in a destination: 1) Initial stage: existence of a motivation to travel. 2) Basis: resources and attractions are the basis of a destination. 3) Creation process: it requires not only the existence or creation of infrastructures, facilities and services but also the development of specific activities or experiences. The result of the process can be seen as the tourism supply of a destination and development of travel agencies. 4) Communication: once tourism supply is created, there will be functional and emotional benefits that can be communicated to markets and target audiences through the creation of an image and the correct positioning. The values provided by the product should also be communicated and promoted to stimulate consumption. 5) Result: the consumption of tourism products in a destination.
54
Key elements in the product creation process
The process to create products is complex and it requires the existence of a management organization that should lead, coordinate, structure, develop and implement the process. It will also be necessary that all the different issues related to the process of product creation are coordinated to be able to guarantee its success, always taking into account the economic perspective, social development and protection of the environment.
55
Determinants of the Attraction Market
56
Determinants of the Attraction Market
Political Factors (e.g. changes in Europe, continental integration, terrorism and travel security risks). These factors influence the geography of travel and visitor attendance at attractions located in safe tourism regions. Problems of a political tenor have a significant influence on tourist traffic in a given country. In the eyes of tourists, places in the grip of conflict or natural disasters lose their positive image as safe and attractive destinations. This results in a drop in the number of tourist arrivals and income. Tourism development plans are postponed to a later date (e.g. in Israel, Pakistan and Sudan). But a new tourist attraction might arise precisely because of this kind of situation. For a new type of tourist is appearing – so-called “conflict” or “war” tourists – i.e. tourists travelling to places in the grip of war or conflicts. These people are notable for their willingness to participate in, or rather observe, unsettling events and to be part of them.
57
Determinants of the Attraction Market
Economic Factors (common currencies in Europe and the world, the situation in developing countries, the accumulation of capital, globalization). Dubai is an excellent example. The wealthy sheik of this emirate saw an opportunity for the country’s economic development (following the exhaustion of crude oil reserves) in tourism. In order to attract tourists, he invested millions of petrodollars in the creation of new tourist attractions designed to shock the whole world (the tallest building, the most expensive hotel, the Ski Dubai skiing station, artificial islands shaped like palms or maps of the world, a replica of the terracotta army, and so on). Tourist attractions generate profits from admission tickets and the provision of catering, accommodation, transport, cultural and recreational services. Taxes paid by tourism managers replenish local budgets. Attractions create a huge employment market in tourism services6. Visitor expenditure exerts a multiplier effect in local and regional economies (food production, catering, souvenir production).
58
Determinants of the Attraction Market
Sociocultural factors (including changing family models, aging communities, the issue of the disabled and nature conservation). These factors have an impact on the creation and adjustment of attractions to meet ecological requirements and make them accessible to the disabled and elderly. Technological factors (advances in communication and telecommunication, virtual reality, the home cinema, computer technology). Engineering and technology have been drawn into the process of creating new attractions, for example the construction of the tallest buildings, the most astonishing structures or means of transport which become attractions simply by being used. The most exclusive attraction is currently space flight, although the number of clients is limited in this case by the high cost, but in the not too distant future, as flying costs are reduced, we will certainly be able to speak of space tourism.

CONTEMPORARY TRENDS IN THE CREATION OF TOURIST ATTRACTIONS
61
Contemporary trends in the creation of tourist attractions
Dynamically developing modern tourism has a continual need for new attractions, i.e. destinations for millions of customers who have already visited the recognized attractions. As these tourists have been everywhere, it takes a lot to impress them. A rich and versatile tourism offer (only these have any chance of standing out from thousands of others) should be based on a search for original attractions and when these are found wanting, the creation of new ones. By necessity, the creation of these primarily involves culture and technology, for the number of natural attractions is limited and those that exist have already been identify ed. The attractions emerging these days are tied into a new model for the evolution of tourism, the three E’s (Entertainment, Excitement, Education), which has supplanted the traditional three S’s model (Sun, Sea, Sand). The emerging new attractions are meant to entertain, excite (in a sense to frighten), to raise adrenaline levels and to educate by provoking thought and reflection. Such entertainment and educational ends are served by the theme and amusement parks that have developed as a result, the most important example being Disneyland.
62
Contemporary trends in the creation of tourist attractions
The first Disneyland was created in California, and the next ones in Florida, Japan, Hong Kong and Paris (Euro Disneyland). Other important attractions that appeared in the second half of the 20th century include the Pompidou Centre, the Arctic Center located by the Arctic Circle in Rovaniemi, the Greenwich Waterfront, the Oxford Story and the Smurf Park in Belgium. The magic date of 2000 induced the residents of our globe to prepare “something special”. One of the forms this initiative took was the erection of new buildings. The excitement accompanying the New Millennium celebrations most strongly affected the inhabitants of Great Britain. One of these buildings was the Millennium Dome. Besides the buildings erected to mark the approach of the New Millennium, architectural complexes of international importance appeared with predefined roles. One example would be the Olympic complex in Sydney or the grandly designed exhibition halls for Expo 2000 in Hannover. Another method for introducing architectural transformations to mark the year 2000 was the conversion of already existing buildings.
63
Contemporary trends in the creation of tourist attractions
On the magic day (all the sevens – ) at a grand gala in Lisbon the Seven New Wonders of the world were announced. The jury’s verdict aroused very strong emotions. The Egyptians were outraged by the Pyramids’ exclusion from the list, while many experts lamented the absence of Angkor Wat and were surprised by the qualification of the mediocre statue of Christ the Redeemer. UNESCO officially dissociated itself from the ranking. It was stated that… the list of seven new wonders of the world is the product of a private initiative and the outcome of votes and quizzes; it has nothing in common with the preservation of unique objects of international heritage, either cultural or natural. In 2010, a campaign was launched to select the Seven Natural Wonders. For the first time, natural objects in Poland competed to be named a natural wonder, in this case the Białowieża Forest and Masurian Lake District. Masuria, splendidly promoted by the Polish Tourist Organization and local organizations (using the apt slogan “Masuria, Wonder of Nature”), reached the actual final.

65
Tourist investments - how tourist attractions are created
Investments, due to the sources of financing, can be divided into: private investments, public investments, public-private investments COOPERATION! Hight cost! In order to build a tourist product adapted to market needs and consolidate its brand, cooperation between various public and private sector entities is needed.
66
COOPERATION Implementation of public-interest tasks can be based on the concept of public-private partnership (PPP) on established principles. The literature indicates various possible types of cooperation between the public and private sectors. The most popular forms of PPP include: contract for services, joint ventures, concessions, systems based on contracts BOT (Build - Operate - Transfer), leasing, funding systems based on funds local communities. In tourism, the most common is the contract for services and BOT-based systems (e.g. Water Park in Toruń, Center of Sport and Recreation in Gdańsk, Center of Sport, Recreation and Rehabilitation in Słupsk)
67
Selected sources of financing business activity in tourism
Own capital, This is capital that owners of a business (shareholders and partners, for example) provide: 1) self-financing: own savings, earned profits structural transformation of the property, change of land use from arable land to construction land 2) Shares or stocks preference shares / hybrid source of finance ordinary preference shares participating preference shares ordinary shares shares bonus founders' shares Borrowed capital, This is capital which the business borrows from institutions or people, and includes debentures: redeemable debentures (commercial papers) irredeemable debentures debentures to bearer ordinary debentures Bonds (issuing corporate bonds) deposits loans bank loans
68
FINANCING OF TOURISM ATTRACTIONS – EU FOUNDS!
Tourism is a sector that significantly contributes to the dynamic economic country development. An essential factor of the tourism development is a source of financing. Among many possible sources of financing OF TOURISM ATTRACTIONS very important role play support from the European Union. Accession to the EU structures allowed more dynamic economic development, including tourism. However, that source should not be the main and only source of capital, but rather support for capital-intensive investment projects. Tourists enterprises that want to build a strong competitive market position should reasonably create capital structure.
72
EUROPEAN REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT FUND
The European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) is one of the five "European Structural and Investment Funds„ The most relevant for the tourism sector probably are: Research and innovation (N°1) Information and Communication Technologies (N°2) Competitiveness of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (N°3) Shift to a low-carbon economy (N°4) Environmental protection and resource efficiency (N°6) Employment and support for labour mobility (N°8) Education, skills and lifelong learning
73
EUROPEAN REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT FUND
Type of tourism-related actions eligible for funding.These programmes may for instance support: tourism-related research, technological development and innovation, including service innovation and clusters (tourism service incubators, living labs, demonstration projects, …) the development of innovative tourism services, in particular in less favoured and peripheral regions with underdeveloped industrial structures and strongly dependent on tourism (new business models, exploitation of new ideas, …) the development of high value added products and services in niche markets (health tourism, tourism for seniors, cultural and ecotourism, gastronomy tourism, sports tourism, etc.) by mobilising specific local resources and therefore contributing to smart regional specialisation
74
EUROPEAN REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT FUND
measures to improve energy efficiency and renewable energy use among tourism SMEs the protection, promotion and development of natural and cultural tourism assets and related services small-scale cultural and sustainable tourism infrastructure measures in favour of entrepreneurship, self-employment and business creation as well as the internationalisation of tourism SMEs and clusters Vocational training, skills upgrading
75
EUROPEAN REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT FUND
Who can apply within the tourism sector? All legal persons (any public body, company and in particular SMEs, research organisations, universities, non-governmental organisations, tourism clusters ...) Type and level of funding The type and level of funding vary across Programmes, depending on the needs and choices of each Member State. The ERDF allocation may be disbursed through grants to individual recipients and consortia; loans, venture capital and credit guarantees through Financial Instruments12; or public procurement (for support services, feasibility studies, etc.). For grants, the maximum co-financing rate is 50% for the most developed regions, 60% for transition regions (and in exceptional cases 80%) and 85 % for the less developed regions.
76
Example(s) of successful projects in the past
Krimml Waterfalls used to develop health tourism initiative (Austria) Tourism in the Oberpinzgau region of the Hohe Tauern National Park was stagnating. The regional authorities therefore set out to develop new tourism products exploiting scientific evidence about the health benefits of a notable local feature: the highest waterfalls in Europe with a drop of 380 m. In 2006, a Salzburg University had indeed set up a scientific laboratory near the Krimml Waterfalls to study the finely dispersed highly concentrated aerosol produced by the water hitting the floor. It demonstrated the benefits of this natural aerosol for people suffering from asthma and allergies: a daily stroll around the waterfalls can reduce the symptoms with positive effects lasting over a few months. Together with other local features (low pollution, low levels of fungal spores, and a short flowering season), this made this part of the National Park an ideal place for treatment or cure.
77
C-Mine – turning a former coal-mining site into a creative hotspot (Belgium)
Through C-Mine, the industrial city of Genk aimed to re-invent itself as an entrepreneurial city. The project helped transforming a former coal-mining site into a place where creative economic activities can thrive: gaming industry, cultural centre, tourism attractions (including an underground 'experience centre' in the air shaft of the former mine) but also space for the "Media and Design Academy", the Design Innovation Laboratory for innovative SMEs, etc.
78
EUROPEAN SOCIAL FUND The European Social Fund (ESF) is one of the five "European Structural and Investment Funds Type of tourism-related actions eligible for funding Eligible actions are listed in the "Operational Programmes" prepared by the Member States. Depending on their choices, funding from the European Social Fund may be used, among other things, for: training workers to help companies having to cope with restructuring or a lack of qualified workers training people in difficulty and those from disadvantaged groups to get better skills and jobs supporting mutual learning, establishing networks, and disseminating and promoting good practices and methodologies in the domain of social innovation Most actions are regional or national, but the ESF can also support transnational and inter-regional co-operation, depending on the approach defined in Operational Programmes.
79
EUROPEAN SOCIAL FUND 3. Who can apply within the tourism sector?
All legal persons active in the labour market or in the fields of education & training (e.g. SMEs, chamber of commerce, trade union, foundation, NGO, …). 4. Type and level of funding ESF is providing grants. All projects have to be co-financed, with a maximum EU contribution of 50% to 85% (95% in exceptional cases) of the total project costs depending on the relative wealth of the region ("More developed regions", "Transitions regions" or "Less developed regions"). The level of funding varies widely, depending of the project and the Operational Programme. Examples listed below range from EUR to EUR 3 million.
80
EUROPEAN SOCIAL FUND Example(s) of successful projects in the past
Training programme for tourism managers and supervisors in Malta In 2011 the Malta Tourism Authority received EUR 3 million from the Maltese government and the ESF (25%-75% co-financing) for its training programme "Advance: Training Tourism Leaders". The programme was organised around two platforms: one for 450 senior managers and a second for 300 middle management and supervisors in the tourism sector. Teaching was provided by 12 foreign experts. Training sessions were held in leading tourism establishments and one-to-one mentoring was offered.
81
EUROPEAN SOCIAL FUND Example(s) of successful projects in the past
Developing an alternative way of presenting Slovenia's capital city to tourists The Bosnian Cultural Association of Slovenia has received ESF funding for its "Alternative Ljubljana" project to include 'alternative sights' into Ljubljana's tourist offering. The intention is to offer visitors of Slovenia's capital city a 'multicultural path' combining traditional Slovenian culture with the culture of immigrants, such as German, Italian and Jewish communities, and minorities coming from other parts of the former Yugoslavia. The project also aims to reduce youth unemployment through training (how to make videos helping visitors and residents explore the rich history, architecture and culinary delights of the city …).
82
EUROPEAN SOCIAL FUND Example(s) of successful projects in the past
Stimulating rural tourism by cooking with local products The ESF supported the "Cooking with local produce" training programme organised in the Vercors district (France) by AFRAT, the association for training rural people in tourism activities (EUR , 50% co-financing). The training drew on the practices and history of the countryside. It combined theory and practice, introducing students to local producers and arranging work experience (hostels, country restaurants, rural hotel businesses, gîtes and tourist activity centres). All participants (apprentice cooks) found work at the end of the programme. Cooking with local products proved to stimulate tourism business in the area.
83
