    The Hong Kong Polytechnic University School of Hotel and Tourism Management Marketing Cultural and Heritage Resources for Optimal Cultural Tourism Development: The Case of Hong Kong HO Sau Ying Pamela A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2006 To Mom and Felix Abstract Tourism is often criticised for undermining both the intangible and tangible values of cultural heritage. While cultural heritage site managers work hard to conserve these assets, tourism operators and marketers keep bringing in coach loads of tourists every day, placing immense pressure on such sites from tourists’ misbehaviour. This study explores the underlying causes for unsustainable cultural tourism products and aims to verify if sustainable cultural tourism products can be achieved through the adoption of a marketing approach. The major challenge for successful cultural tourism products was found to be the transformation between a heritage asset with no intention to serve the tourist market and a heritage asset developed and marketed as a tourism product. While a heritage asset is managed primarily for its intrinsic value and from a supply-side approach, cultural tourist attractions are operated and marketed with tourists in mind, necessitating a more market-oriented approach. A bottom-up product approach is found to be an essential, viable tool in solving the sustainability issue in cultural tourism. Using marketing principles to guide the development of cultural tourism products from original heritage assets, the tourism potential of these assets can be assessed, core values of the assets can been found which will then be realised by transforming the assets into attractions catering to tourists’ needs, and compatible tourist expectations can be managed effectively.
