Over the last decade, practically no other branch of the cultural field, nor the tourism sector, has developed and specialized as much or as rapidly as cultural tourism. It is one of the few growth areas that reflects an important "megatrend": culture-oriented travel is mainly about visiting cultural sites and cultural events so that the visitor can get acquainted with the culture of their own country, as well as with the cultures of foreign countries. The motivations that lead a person to plan and undertake a trip, a vacation is a complex function with variables ranging from the natural characteristics of the destination to infrastructure and facilities, from historical and cultural value to financial considerations. Cultural tourism is closely related to the historical past of the locations chosen as tourist destinations. Aspects of the past are elements used intensively in the construction of tourism products for an increasing and varied number of target markets.
