Nowadays the
heritage has got an increasing importance, since the conquest of its
protection, passing by the addition of the imaterial heritage, and now the
trend of the local heritage. The valorization of the traditions, of the simple
habits has gained support of the population, and mainly has coming from the population. The own
community has understanding the wealth
of her values and assigned a key role in
her personal histories.
While I´m
researching the wine tourism in Portugal, I see how much that´s true e and how
much this trend is growing, while I visit
the places of my research I
observe the behavior of tourists. It is
evident the fascination that the local heritage has on visitors, and I'm
thrilled to see the satisfaction from people which lives in this places to explain and tell the stories of their
families, of their properties and of
their jobs, which I call of personal heritage: a typical characteristic of the
experience tourism in the search of the human being for the small story
Key words:
personal heritage, tourism, experience
