“…In order to achieve the sustainable development of the ZGC, DMO need to strengthen publicity efforts in addition to the traditional scenic spots. For sustainable cultural heritage sites, cultural heritage sites need to be reactivated by addressing people's current experiences and interests [56].…”

The Zhenjiang section of the Grand Canal (ZGC) is an important part of the Grand Canal, which was listed on the World Heritage List in 2014. The purpose of this study is to analyze the projected image of the ZGC constructed by destination marketing organizations (DMO) in the WeChat official account (WOA) by using the network content analysis method to condense the image features of the ZGC on the Internet and to provide support for the brand image construction of the ZGC from the supply side. The results show that: (1) DMO pay more attention to the shipping traffic and generate less publicity regarding the literature and art of the ZGC; (2) the cognitive images that are widely promoted are river course and water transport; the emotional images in high-frequency words are less involved but are positive as a whole; (3) the brand image of the ZGC has a strong nostalgic characteristic; (4) more attention should be paid to the heritage sites in the Song Dynasty and near the river course and river outlet.

“…These differences are often reflected in behaviors, attitudes, and preferences that vary between younger and older generations (Monaco, 2018;Dolot, 2018;Liu et al, 2020). These generational differences have formed across the decades due to the economic, social, and political differences experienced by each generation during a specific time period and in certain countries (Guerra et al, 2015;Youn, & Uzzell, 2016;Monaco, 2018). Therefore, the literature that has referred to generational differences does not have a fixed and uniform division of generations…”

Travel decision-making is a very complex process. The reason why it is complex is that there are several considerations that travelers must make before travelling. Since travelers cannot see the tourism product before the purchase process, they are highly interested in their travel planning and decision-making. Therefore, they need trusted information sources like travel agencies, social media platforms, and social media influencers to provide them with information and help them to make the optimal decision. Travelers have many tendencies and preferences that differ in the travel decision-making process according to their ages. So, the current study aims to understand the major characteristics of generation X, Generation Y and Generation Z and to identify the main factors that influence the travel decision-making process. To achieve the main objective of this study, a quantitative approach was carried out in order to study generational differences in the travel decision-making process. This research has been based on a survey method through distributing a set of questionnaires

“…In general, cultural tourism became an important topic of discussion in academic research studied from different perspectives (Torre and Scarborough, 2017; Loukaitou-Sideris and Soureil, 2012; Richards, 2010; Volo, 2009; Christou, 2005; McKercher, 2002; Hughes, 2002). Various academic studies (Jovicic, 2016; Mottiar et al , 2016; Youn and Uzzell, 2016) indicate that people are motivated by culture because they explore the unique characteristics of a destination (Silberberg, 1995). Concurrently, incorporating cultural elements in the business environment, that is the tourism industry, has direct impacts on the improvement of standards of living and creates pride to the people (Di Pietro et al , 2014).…”

Purpose Culture is an important motivation force to people within the context of tourism. It provides new opportunities for destinations to promote cultural elements and attract more travellers. This study aims to investigate how the cultural heritage of Cyprus is promoted online and to identify whether the needs of travellers who focus on experiential aspects and prioritise culture can be fulfilled. Design/methodology/approach The research aim is fulfilled through a critical discourse analysis of selected WebPages concerning representation of the culture of Cyprus within the tourism context. Findings Eighteen websites were included, and the results suggest that Cyprus has Web exposure specifically promoting its cultural heritage. However, the websites have been established with different tourism scopes, with culture comprising just one part of the content. Thus, the development of specialised websites is dedicated exclusively to culture and tourism, and it seems appropriate to attract travellers interested in more educational activities with cultural and historical value. This approach would bring many benefits because this cohort of travellers is in an upper-scale tourist market. Originality/value This study is original in nature because it brings together the case of Cyprus, an island destination highly depended on tourism in relation to cultural tourism Web discourse. The promotion of cultural parameters will provide more opportunities for the island and escape from the 3S’s (sea, sun and sand) image to be positioned as a culturally sustainable destination.
