Abstract (150 Words)
The purpose of this study was to contribute to the improvement of the potential of tourist destination from the perspective of "coherence with the future plan of the region" and "coordination with sustainable development of tourist spots".
We analyzed the structure of organic solidarity of tourism resources. As a result, the following was pointed out.
Many tourists recognize history and tradition as important tourist resources. But more important for modern tourists is not only “seeing” history and traditions, but also experiencing them as “at present”. For that purpose, the public and private sectors have to cooperate and develop a system that can utilize the local characteristics as tourist attractions. As one of them, we pointed out the importance of interpretation programs. The interpretation programs provide a point of contact between tourists and residents. This is a basis that promotes mutual understanding between residents and tourists.
