Abstract

ABSTRACT Since remote times, people have flocked to the mountain of Montserrat, located in the north-east corner of the Iberian Peninsula. They are drawn by the whimsical shapes of its peaks and a deeply rooted religious tradition. The confluence of these factors led developers to apply the new Swiss mountain resort business model in an effort to exploit the landscape for its tourist value. The project started with a proposal to build a rack railway that climbed to the top of the mountain.

蒙特塞拉特齿条铁路的起源，以及西班牙首次尝试建造瑞士风格的山脉（1877-1889）

自古以来，人们就成群结队地来到位于伊比利亚半岛东北角的蒙特塞拉特山。他们被山峰异想天开的形状和根深蒂固的宗教传统所吸引。这些因素的共同作用导致开发商采用新的瑞士山地度假商业模式，努力开发景观的旅游价值。该项目开始于建造一条爬到山顶的轨道铁路的提议。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Tourism History is the primary venue for peer-reviewed scholarship covering all aspects of the evolution of tourism from earliest times to the postwar world. Articles address all regions of the globe and often adopt interdisciplinary approaches for exploring the past. The Journal of Tourism History is particularly (though not exclusively) interested in promoting the study of areas and subjects underrepresented in current scholarship, work for example examining the history of tourism in Asia and Africa, as well as developments that took place before the nineteenth century. In addition to peer-reviewed articles, Journal of Tourism History also features short articles about particularly useful archival collections, book reviews, review essays, and round table discussions that explore developing areas of tourism scholarship. The Editorial Board hopes that these additions will prompt further exploration of issues such as the vectors along which tourism spread, the evolution of specific types of ‘niche’ tourism, and the intersections of tourism history with the environment, medicine, politics, and more.
