Summary
A significant decline in visitor numbers to UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the Czech Republic, including Český Krumlov, was observed post-pandemic, with recovery remaining uneven. The study, based on a 2023 survey of 361 visitors, reveals that while some sites have rebounded, others face persistent challenges due to altered tourist behavior and economic constraints. Key factors affecting visitation include perceived safety concerns, changes in travel preferences, and the limited appeal of cultural heritage attractions post-pandemic. The research highlights the need for targeted strategies, such as enhanced digital marketing, improved visitor experiences, and sustainable tourism practices, to restore and boost attendance at these sites.
