Description
Rising rents, the loss of lifelong businesses, the displacement of residents and the loss of traditions are worrying more and more Barcelonians. The issue is forcing the city to rethink a tourism model that seems to be killing the essence of the city that attracts an average of 170,000 people every day. "We have to look for different tourism management strategies, but at the same time try to grow and develop other economic activities," states Jordi Valls, the City Council's Deputy Mayor for Tourism.
