Abstract
DOMINGUEZ MARTINEZ, David Mauricio and SANCHEZ CRISPIN, Álvaro. Regionalisation of Tourism in the State of Oaxaca. Invest. Geog [online]. 2019, n.98, 00007. ISSN 2448-7279. https://doi.org/10.14350/rig.59699.
This paper proposes a regionalisation of tourism in the state of Oaxaca, Mexico. This is done by weighing up the functional ranking of the main state tourist hubs, the geographical distribution of natural and cultural resources for tourism in this part of Mexico and the regional accessibility of these places assessed by the analysis of the state road network. This procedure led us to establish two major research findings: first, a hierarchical set of tourist regions within the state and, second, a cognitive platform on to which support a proposal for planning and rationalizing the tourism space in Oaxaca.
Keywords : Functional regionalization; regional center; tourism; accessibility.
