A typology of dark tourism destinations in City of Sarajevo
Tourist visits to places related to death and human suffering, war, genocide, various tragic events, etc. are referred to as dark tourism, ie, tanaturism. Morbidity and even bizarreness (as opposed to experiencing tourist travel as a source of pleasure, pleasant emotions, carefree mood, and enjoyment) are perceived by many as the main determinant of dark tourism because it focuses tourists on misery, suffering, and death. Such a visit is, first and foremost, an informative (educational) character. This means that the concept of "dark tourism" is fluid and implies different shades, whether it is the motivation of visitors, whether it is attraction, which is one of the problems in conceptually shaping this phenomenon. This paper aims to identify potential resources for the development of dark tourism in the City of Sarajevo. The destinations will be grouped according to the categories of dark tourism destinations and the spectrum of dark tourism set by Stone (2006) with some adjustments to our area. The area of research is the City of Sarajevo with its municipalities: Center, Novi Grad, Novo Sarajevo, and Stari Grad. Creating a typology will enable a better understanding of the dark tourist offer, locating and exploring the tourist demand, its motives, and experiences.
