Turismul negru, fenomen în creștere. Locurile marcate de tragedii devin atracții turistice

A drug trafficker in Galicia organized a controversial drug trafficking tour, sparking discussions on dark tourism, which turns sites of violence into attractions. The regional government banned the tour for violating tourism laws. Dark tourism encompasses various forms, including visits to historical tragedies and urban crime areas. Spain has become a destination for this type of tourism, with itineraries linked to the Spanish Civil War and other historical events. However, ethical concerns arise as many sites are meant for remembrance, not tourism, risking the trivialization of their original purpose. Experts emphasize the need for ethical practices in dark tourism to foster reflection on traumatic events.
