Modelo - guía de valoración turística del patrimonio religioso: los templos de jerez de la frontera

Abstract

This article presents the outcomes of a research that Tecnotur Foundation and the University of Cadiz have developed to serve as a reference to open up to the tourists the main churches of Jerez de la Frontera (Cádiz, Spain). The results of the study have been documented in a manual that describes the ten basic requirements for the tourist development of a temple and provides an overview of bestpractices for their compliance. When selecting the requirements, we have considered not only the factors that enable the simple opening of the temples, but also the factors that contribute to create a full tourist experience, and to attract visitors and ensure their satisfaction.
