Propuesta recorrido turístico en torno a historias, mitos y leyendas urbanas de La Candelaria

Abstract

The proposal of a tour around stories, myths and urban legends in the town of La Candelaria, aims to publicize and take advantage of tourism and heritage resources with the account of the area. Based on the surveys that were conducted, it was found that there is a lack of knowledge on the part of residents and tourists about the stories, myths and legends that encompass the locality, for this reason, they chose to work on this project to publicize these places that, in turn, are patrimonial interests that, throughout history, have forgotten and that have lost their cultural value. Likewise, the results show that most of the respondents are interested in knowing the area with this type of route. The solution to this problem is to design a tourist route with strategic points different from those that are already exploited in this sector, in order to make known another part of La Candelaria that has remained in the past and to relive its history through an activity with guided accompaniment. According to the check list, an inventory of the possible places was made and it was found with these, it fulfills the conditions of structure for the entrance and the pedestrian access that allows to make a guided tour of said area. Finally, the tourist route was designed, delimiting the strategic points through a cartographic map, to transmit the geographic information in a visual way, and also, to measure the duration time of a point to point and of the route in general.
