“…The results show that professional travelers are more oriented to the use of private cars, but they prefer collective transports when the length of stay is higher and combined with other trip motivations. This study puts forward policy implications and suggestions for future research directions, in particular regarding the utilization of non-motorized forms of transportation cities [8].…”

The tourism industry, especially in its urban dimension, has a special place in the economies of countries and its effects and consequences are evident in all dimensions. Cities are considered as tourist places due to their structure, texture and identity, and one of the components of economic development of cities and its result in countries is tourism. Methodology: To do this, in addition to library studies, interviews with experts and professors in the field of tourism and economics have been conducted in order to identify the components affecting tourism. Based on the research findings from statistical analysis based on SPSS and Mini Tab software, different scenarios for the development of tourism in Tabriz have been designed in accordance with Micmac software and based on them, the necessary solutions have been provided. To do this, by designing a questionnaire to collect data, by analyzing the information obtained, input factors in four areas of strategic planning, tourism potentials, regional conditions and infrastructure facilities and effective consequences on the problem in two economic areas. And tourism consequences are categorized.Findings: Using the results, probable, plausible and possible scenarios are identified and finally suggestions for economic development of tourism in Tabriz based on these scenarios are expressed. The results show that despite the many conditions and capabilities in the city of Tabriz, programs and infrastructure facilities are still not suitable for tourism development and, consequently, the prosperity of the urban economy in this area. Originality/Value:The main purpose of this study is to explain the impact and importance of the tourism industry in the flourishing of the urban economy and the purpose of its implementation in the metropolis of Tabriz is to study tourism scenarios in the future of Tabriz urban economy.

“…Romo, J. et al analyzed the environmental problems caused by transportation during the development of urban tourism in Barcelona as an example. The results showed that tourists' travel satisfaction during urban tourism is affected by transportation services in addition to the city's own culture [11]. Zhou, C. et al argued that ICT is driving digital reform in all industries worldwide, and this phenomenon can also be reflected in cultural tourism and made a comparative analysis from the perspective of industrial economics.…”

This paper firstly analyzes the basic composition of intercultural communication ability, discusses the specific function of cultural promotion of urban tourism, and gives the promotion effect of intercultural communication on urban tourism. Secondly, the connotation of multimodal discourse analysis is given, and the technical analysis of text, audio, and visual features is carried out for the analysis of urban tourism discourse. Then, the TF-IDF algorithm is used to realize the feature extraction of tourism culture text, the MFCC algorithm is used to extract the audio features of tourism culture, and the modal classification network is used to realize the recognition of the visual features of urban tourism culture video. Finally, to verify the effectiveness of the application of multimodal discourse analysis in urban cross-cultural communication, three aspects were tested and analyzed respectively. The results show that the F1 value of the TF-IDF algorithm is 0.912, which is 17.07% higher than that of the CTF-TF-IDF algorithm. When the amount of audio recognition is 5GB, the recognition time of the MFCC audio recognition method is 10.4 s. When the weight value of the visual feature extraction network is set to 1.0, the highest visual feature extraction error rate is only 3.96%. Using multimodal discourse analysis to carry out urban tourism discourse analysis can realize more comprehensive urban tourism feature extraction, help tourists strengthen their tourism perception, and then promote the enhancement of urban cross-cultural communication ability.

“…Given these aspects of the interplay between transportation and tourism, the urban tourism literature has focused on research topics such as the role of transportation as the interface of tourists and local communities (Hall, 1999), the relationship between transportation experience and tourist satisfaction (Thompson & Schofield, 2007;Romão & Bi, 2021), the mismatch between the supply and demand of public transportation (Albalate & Bel, 2010), strategies for a modal shift to public transportation by tourists (Le-Klähn & Hall, 2015), and the spatial dynamics of tour bus operations (Daniels et al, 2018). Recently, new modes of transportation, such as e-scooters and e-bikes, particularly in the context of the sharing economy, have gained attention in urban tourism studies (Davies et al, 2020).…”

Sustainable Urban Tourism with Green-Slow Mobility: A Case of Ikebukuro, Japan

This study investigates how green-slow mobility services can contribute to sustainable urban tourism development. It first reviews the literature related to green-slow mobility and sustainable urban tourism to identify a research gap. It then discusses how green-slow mobility services can nurture the atmosphere of slow tourism in urban areas based on the case of the Ikebus, a green-slow mobility service in Ikebukuro, Japan. The case of the Ikebus is described based on secondary data, mainly from Toshima City in Tokyo, Japan. Based on the Ikebus case, this study proposes that green-slow mobility can enhance the slow tourism atmosphere in a destination through the destination’s residents and workers. The case demonstrates that, with strategic planning and implementation, green-slow mobility can lead local residents and workers to feel a greater attachment to the city. As the symbol of Ikebukuro, the Ikebus will signal to tourists and visitors that residents and workers in Toshima City are supportive of providing tourists and visitors with local tourism experiences. This study proposes a preliminary new idea that green-slow mobility can serve as a catalyst to realize slow tourism in urban destinations.
