A systematic review 2023 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted Battlefield tourism is an increasingly popular form of travel, where visitors seek to connect with history and cultural heritage by exploring locations famous for their battles. Battle tourism is found in different places, specifically, those involved in ancient world battles. Research has shown that battle tourism has a significant impact on local economies as visitors spend money in hotels, restaurants, and shops. It has also proven to be an effective tool for education, allowing visitors to learn about history in an interactive and exciting manner. However, there are also concerns about the impact of battle tourism on historic sites and how cultural sensitivity is managed. Our research discusses battle tourism, including its economic and educational impacts, as well as the challenges and opportunities in managing tourism at these historic sites. In addition, it discusses how battlefield tourism relates to other types of historical tourism and how visitors’ experiences in these places can be enhanced. With these objectives, the main success stories referenced in the academic bibliography have been analyzed from a systematic review conducted using the PRISMA methodology. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 3.0 2023 info:eu-repo/semantics/review info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Grilló-Méndez, Ana-Julia Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-6272-5811 4012 650 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
