Las ciudades situadas a lo largo del río Yangtze han sido testigo de cambios significativos desde los inicios de la construcción de la Presa hidroeléctrica de las Tres Gargantas. La autoridad portuaria de Chongqing tuvo la oportunidad de alternar la estrategia turística del río, pasando de ser una parada de la ruta dorada en lo alto del río a crear una ruta navegable particular de cara a la visualización del panorama de la ciudad montañosa, promoviendo, a su vez, la renovación del diseño urbanístico para revivir la vista típica del paisaje de río y montaña. Este artículo se basa en la investigación panorámica de la península de Chongqing; trata los aspectos característicos de las tres dimensiones del turismo de la ciudad montañosa en la ruta navegable, que existe también en la región de las Tres gargantas. Este método es diferente del acercamiento bidimensional de análisis del skyline, más propicio para el área topográfica. El trabajo conseguido puede ofrecer a los sectores relacionados con el turismo asistencia sostenible para lidiar con los temas de “tourbanism” en el proceso de regeneración urbana las regiones de las Tres Gargantas.

The silhouette of a city can be described as its image or as its face, which tends to change over time, and it is very important to incorporate it into urban planning to build a recognisable image of the city. The purpose of the study is to create development proposals and recommendations for building the silhouette of a city, while preserving and highlighting the valuable elements already present. In order to achieve this, the study examines the factors forming the silhouette of a city and their role in the human perception of urban spaces. A methodology was developed for analysing silhouettes, and was used in the towns of Tukums, Talsi, Kuldīga, and Saldus. The spatial and architectural structure of the towns, their history, factors forming their silhouette were studied, with general recommendations for the development of the silhouette from a specific kind of viewing location in the towns – their gates.
