“…However, it is seen in the literature that there are many studies to identify the challenges encountered in the tourism focused development process. These challenges confessed in the literature can be expressed as a lack of cooperation and coordination, insufficient incentives, concentration of the tourism sector in a single region, lack of infrastructure, accessibility problem, lack of local people's tourism awareness, insufficiency in investment, promotion and marketing (Neves, 2006;Dana et al, 2014;Petrevska and Matlieska, 2012;Niewiadomski, 2011;Brenner ve Aguilar, 2002;Lama, 2012;Zeng et al, 2005;Homlong and Springler, 2016;Durgun, 2006;Tuncbilekli, 2006). It can be stated that these challenges prevent the success of tourism focused development objective.…”

Bu çalışmada turizm odaklı kalkınma sürecinde Kayseri ilinde karşılaşılan başlıca sorunlar tespit edilmekte ve bu sorunlara yönelik çeşitli çözüm önerileri ortaya konulmaktadır. Çalışmada nitel araştırma yaklaşımı benimsenmiş ve araştırma verileri Kayseri ilinde bulunan 20 turizm sektörü paydaşı ile yarı yapılandırılmış mülakat yöntemi kullanılarak elde edilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda ise turizm odaklı kalkınma sürecinde yatırım, tanıtım ve pazarlama faaliyetlerinin yetersizliği, destinasyon yönetim örgütü ve genel bir turizm master planı olmaması, güçlü bir marka ve imaj geliştirememe, turizm faaliyetlerinin tek bir sezona ve bölgeye yoğunlaşması, turizm işletmelerinin nicelik ve niteliklerinin yetersiz olması, nitelikli işgücü eksikliği, yerel halkın turizme katılımının sağlanamaması, teşvikler ve finansman konusunda sorunların yaşanması ve paydaşlar arasında işbirliğinin yetersiz olması gibi birçok sorunla karşılaşıldığı tespit edilmiş ve bu sorunlarla mücadeleye yönelik çeşitli çözüm önerileri (genel bir turizm master planı hazırlanması, entegre destinasyon yönetim örgütü oluşturulması, işbirliğinin sağlanması vb.) ortaya konulmuştur. Ayrıca, araştırma sonucunda gelecekte yapılacak çalışmalara yönelik olarak önemli önerilerde bulunulmuştur.

This an investigation of older tourists and street life. The purpose is to include this group in accounts of tourist practices, and to invite recognition of the value of such places to this demographic. Distinct tourist zones in popular tourist cities attract patrons of all ages and nationalities. Streets of cafés, bars, and restaurants provide a warm welcome, "local color," sustenance, relaxation, and companionship. Pub Street, Siem Reap, Cambodia is one such street. The region is home of the famous Angkor Watt temple complex. After sightseeing, here people relax, eager for conversation with anyone happy to sit and chat. Many are retirees or elderly visitors, welcome as consumers in this entertainment precinct. This article extends my exploration of Western retirees in Southeast Asia. A key aim is to note the significance to older tourists of a particular visitor space. In a street they perceived as safe and welcoming they happily defy the stereotypical expectations of their behavior as "old people" back home. But what was the practicable and ethical way to collect material from the visitors as they socialized? It was quickly found that participants were readily accessed. Mobile subjects need mobile methods; immersion in the activities of the subjects under study dissolved the barriers between researcher and participant. An approach for a formal interview later would not work, as many departed from Seim Reap early the next day. Ephemeral events and behaviors could only be captured in this way, even though it challenged institutionalized protocols about what appropriately constitutes research. This article contributes a new strand to spatial studies, locating older tourist as enthusiastic patrons of entertainment precincts. The scope of this project has been limited to just the small precinct of Seim Reap.
