Abstract
The tourism sector holds great importance in the economies of nations as it significantly contributes to national economies by creating new employment opportunities. One of the most valuable employment opportunities in the tourism industry is entrepreneurship, which is essentially a process of value creation. To become a successful tourism entrepreneur, it is crucial to know the region’s tourism resources and where the tourism activities will be carried out. With this in mind, this study aims to compare the tourism resources potential of Cordoba, Eskişehir, and Treviso for young entrepreneurs. In the first stage of the study, a database was created for the tourist attractions of the cities within the scope of the Erasmus+ project named "Anti-Fragile Young Entrepreneurs for Sustainable Rural Tourism: Yes for Rural Tourism" project and the number of tourists visiting the regions was determined. Using this database, the labels that attract attention in tourism in Cordoba, Eskişehir, and Treviso were identified with the help of "Word Cloud" analysis. Thus, this analysis helped to identify the strong and weak tourism areas of the provinces. This study serves as a guide for young tourism entrepreneurs and supports researchers.
