Discovering the tourist attractions of the Gbeke region Ibrahima Sagnon

Located in the center of Côte d'Ivoire, the Gbêkê region has many tourist attractions. We distinguish on the one hand the derived offer which contains all the secondary resources favorable to tourism and on the other hand the original offer which constitutes the whole of the curiosities called to attract the tourists. Apart from the business tourism hotels, the twenty-eight leisure tourist attractions in the region are characterized by a diversity giving rise to five types of tourism. However, they are not all attractive. Only five of them are visited (18%). The reasons for this low attractiveness lie in the lack of development (48%) and especially promotion (18%) of tourist attractions. As a contribution to the tourist attractiveness of the Gbêkê region, this work aims to popularize its potential.
