ABSTRACTThis study investigates how tourists engage with heritage at contemporary experiential sites that have become popular amongst visitors and vital ambassadors of a destination’s heritage. Grounded in the theoretical concept of engagement from an andragogical standpoint, the study utilizes and critically examines reviews from a specific interactive and technologically- advanced whisky experience in Edinburgh, Scotland, namely the Scotch Whisky Experience. Findings expose strong heritage appreciation among visitors, yet challenges exist in engagement despite the optimization of sine qua non human and technologically advanced means. A conceptual diagram of heritage engagement for academic and tourism stakeholders’ consideration is provided, re-enforcing its applicability in contexts beyond the heritage sphere. Theoretical understandings of heritage engagement that ought to be extended beyond visitors’ personal experiential gain and value are also discoursed.HighlightsAdopts a unique theoretical engagement approach that enables deep visitor engagement.Exposes andragogy (method of adult learning) as a form of engagement and knowledge acquisition.Elucidates outcomes of engagement at contemporary experiential heritage attractions.Highlights the constructs of immersion, relation, creation and donation in engagement.KEYWORDS: Engagementheritagenetnographytourist experienceplace Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsProkopis A.

摘要本研究调查了游客如何在当代体验场所与遗产互动,这些体验场所在游客和目的地遗产的重要大使中变得很受欢迎。从人类学的角度出发,以参与的理论概念为基础,该研究利用并批判性地审查了来自苏格兰爱丁堡特定互动和技术先进的威士忌体验的评论,即苏格兰威士忌体验。调查结果显示,游客对遗产的欣赏程度很高,然而,尽管优化了必要条件和技术先进的手段,但在参与方面仍存在挑战。为学术和旅游利益相关者提供了遗产参与的概念图,加强了其在遗产领域以外的背景下的适用性。对遗产参与的理论理解应该延伸到游客的个人体验收益和价值之外。采用独特的理论参与方法,实现深度访客参与。揭示成人学习(成人学习方法)作为一种参与和知识获取的形式。阐明参与当代体验式遗产景点的结果。强调沉浸、关系、创造和捐赠的概念。关键词:参与,环境,地理,旅游体验,地方披露声明作者未发现潜在的利益冲突。作者简介prokopis A.

Small-scale heritage towns usually face fierce competition from surrounding destinations, particularly in peripheral rural areas where tourism holds important possibilities for regional development. This study examines on-site smart tourism technology as a tool to increase attractiveness and differentiation of heritage destinations using examples of Hungarian destinations. The research seeks to answer the question whether a small-scale heritage destination can become a more attractive destination due to technology from the perspective of potential tourists. The paper analyzes quantitative data collected from 537 potential tourists. Principal component analysis was used to identify the factors considering attractive and differential on-site technologies. A regression model was created to examine how these factors affect the potential tourist's decision-making: whether heritage towns with smart on-site tools are too similar to towns that do not use such technologies. Three factors of on-site technologies have been identified: digital sightseeing, smart attractions, and smart infrastructure. According to the regression model, digital sightseeing is the key pull factor, but smart attractions and smart infrastructure also have a positive effect in small towns. The study presents the first empirical research on the effect of smart technology on positioning small-size heritage towns based on demand-side research.
