Strategy for sustainable urban revitalization in a heritage tourist city with a Sub-humid Temperate climate

The environmental quality of urban public and tourist spaces affect the development of the activities of the large number of users in heritage cities, where the concept of sustainability continues to be one of the main interests for researchers around the world. Nowadays, numerous indices have been developed to determine the liveability of urban spaces; however, there are localities that, due to their topographical characteristics, tourist and social activities require methods to generate revitalisation strategies according to their characteristics. In this study, an exploratory longitudinal method was used in a central street of a world heritage city with a temperate sub-humid climate as a case study, with the objective of favouring, by passive means, thermal habitability conditions in a heritage urban space focused on promoting pedestrian mobility. As a result, an urban revitalisation strategy for the benefit of society and tourists in heritage cities was obtained to strengthen sustainable urban mobility strategies.
