Description
Summary:In the last two decades, almost any place has become a tourist destination, reflecting the value of their resources, whatever they are (nature, rural, mountain, cultural, gastronomic, industrial, etc.). Yet, neither all of them were prepared for such purpose, nor the results that were expected have been achieved, with regard to developers and administration prospects. The aim of this paper is to analyze the evolution of tourism in La Rioja (Spain), a region which joined this sector very late, specifically, from the second half of the 1990s. To carry out this paper, secondary sources have been used. The literature on this subject is really sparse so, we have based the research on statistical sources, as well as, on the policy of institutional agencies and the actions taken by tourism stakeholders.
