ABSTRACT
The relationship between urban change and the production and consumption of neighbourhood-based urban tourism and leisure has become increasingly evident in recent decades. As Huning and Novy (2006: 2) argue, ‘while academic interest with regard to urban tourism in the past has concentrated primarily on the inner city – the areas commonly “hit hardest” by tourism – it is only recently that scholars [have] focus[ed] on the development of tourism in urban neighborhoods “beyond the beaten path” ’.
