Document Summary

Attractions and events are the central aspect of tourism: they draw visitors to the destination. Facilities, infrastructure, transportation, and hospitality resources are needed in a supportive role to attractions and events. Some facilities have a dual role as attractions and facilities (ex: parks) Primary: one that is attractive enough to be the primary motivation for tourism visits and aimed at satisfying visitors for several days. Secondary or stopover: an interesting or necessary place to visit on the way to a primary destination and aimed at satisfying visitors for one or two days. Event attractions (short duration, location can be changed) The dp is the distance from which an attraction can attract attendance. To unite and give a feeling of pride to a particular community. Necessary to serve visitors while they are away from their homes. Need to be developed at the same or after the attractions are developed. The mere presence of facilities will not bring visitors.
