Abstract
Tourism geography and tourism studies have for a long time been interested in tourist destinations, their identity, representations and the changes occurring in them. In the view of the 'spatialisation of social theory', this article discusses the nature of tourist destinations and their representations. Tourist destinations are seen as dynamic, historical units with specific identities, which produce a notion of what the destination is and what it represents at the time.
