THE STRATEGIC DESIGN OF EUROCITY CHAVES-VERIN AS A TOURIST DESTINATION

Abstract

The creation and expansion of the European Union allows the development of tourism to benefit from cross-border cooperation between individual cities. In the given case, the cities of Chávez and Verín belong to different countries, Portugal and Spain respectively, but they have common historical ties, exchange and cooperation and experience in social relations. They are part of the Atlantic and are the first Eurocities in the Northwest of the Iberian Peninsula. Tourism can play an important role in building this new territorial development model.
