“…Through empirical analysis, this research provides evidence that tourism development can promote the process of URI. An increasing amount of research has shown that improving the efficiency of how tourism components are distributed can help urban-rural development, create employment opportunities, and promote economic and cultural exchanges between urban and rural regions [59,60]. Therefore, it is crucial to recognize that tourism development has emerged as one of the main forces in URI.…”

A viable pathway towards achieving shared prosperity is made possible by the growth of tourism, which encourages the movement of urban and rural elements. This harmonious alignment of tourism development and urban–rural integration also helps to narrow the gap between urban and rural areas. This study uses a set of panel regression models to investigate whether tourism growth promotes urban–rural integration within 41 cities in the Yangtze River Delta Region of China from 2010 to 2020. The findings show that the effect of tourism development on urban–rural integration is significantly positive, displaying significant heterogeneity across various times and city sizes. Furthermore, tourism development exhibits a threshold effect and city-type heterogeneity concerning urban–rural integration. The effect demonstrates significant continuous growth along with the expansion of economic growth. However, the impact of tourism development on urban–rural integration demonstrates a distinct promotional threshold effect, and its positive effect appears to be weakened.

“…Thirdly, common themes and emerging trends in marine tourism research were identified, considering recurring topics, theoretical frameworks, and research methodologies. A gap analysis was then performed to identify areas where further research is needed, such as underexplored topics or methodological limitations (Agrawal et al, 2022;Page & Duignan, 2023). Based on the identified themes, trends, and gaps, a future research agenda for marine tourism was developed, proposing potential research directions and priorities (Norton et al, 2015;Tasnia et al, 2021).…”

This systematic literature review investigates marine tourism within the scope of business management areas, shedding light on diverse industry dimensions, from environmental impacts to economic valuations. Utilizing the Scopus database and spanning a decade (2012-2022), this research meticulously sifts through an initial bulk of identified articles, ultimately honing in on 37 pertinent papers through a criterion that ensured relevance via aspects like authorship, title, publication year, journal, and citation count. With a structured mapping approach, the research categorizes marine tourism in business management into basic, emerging, motor, and niche themes, revealing critical insights and articulating states of the art in several key facets of marine tourism. Among these are Limited Focus on Sustainable Practices, Under-Explored Technology Utilization, Insufficient Market Segmentation Studies, and Minimal Research on Crisis Management. The study further crafts a future research agenda, considering pivotal domains such as sustainability, technology, market dynamics, crisis management, and community engagement. Serving as a potential cornerstone for forthcoming studies, this research not only maps out future investigations in marine tourism within business management but also highlights themes ripe for deeper, more detailed exploration, thereby enriching the academic vista in marine tourism within the realm of business management.

“…A tourist attraction's brand image encourages visitors and DMOs to participate in developing new tourist products (Martı ´nez-L opez et al, 2021). Urban tourism is an important activity worldwide, where the interrelationship between urbanism, tourist attractions and tourist has a direct and indirect impact economic at cities (Page & Duignan, 2023). Debates on whether tourist attractions attract visitors or not are relatively new on tourism and marketing literature.…”

Purpose The nuclear purpose of this research paper is to analyse representative bridges around the world as a tourist attraction and iconic element through destination marketing organisations’ (DMOs’) tourism official websites where these are localised and three online travel agencies’ (OTAs’) websites. Design/methodology/approach This research used a mixed method. The author carried out Google research (13 March 2023) that included the following search word string “iconic bridges around the world” and “the most famous bridges worldwide” to select the most relevant bridges around the globe. Moreover, this research used a content analysis to examine how Expedia, Booking and Orbitz OTAs promote the bridges through their websites in terms of a tourist attraction, iconic element, tourist package, images and information. Findings Findings suggest that the most representative bridges analysed in this study are promoted as iconic element and tourist attraction through DMOs’ websites. Nevertheless, Booking, Expedia and Orbitz OTAs promote and sell products and services related to bridges selected, except in the case of the Millau Viaduct in France, the Si-O-Se-Pol bridge in Iran, the Danyang Kunshan Grand bridge in China and the Royal Gorge in the USA. Furthermore, results support that OTAs need to enhance the quality and variety of products and services that are linked to iconic bridges sightseeing tours because at the moment, there is a great uniformity in the promotion of products and services provided. Originality/value This paper contributes to broader debates in the importance of bridges as a tourist attraction and iconic element to attract tourists through tourism promotion websites.
