We talked with Manuel Miroglio, General Director of PiCaSo Tours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5><strong>Laura: &nbsp;RutaPiCaSo was created to shine a light on the world of leather shoes and sombreros in central Mexico.

I was giving them an example of how in France there is a form of cultural tourism that explores artisanal and industrial activities in a particular region, also known as economic discovery tourism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the city of Leon is known as the world capital of leather and footwear, and the neighboring municipality of San Francisco del Rincon has a long-standing tradition of sombrero crafting, we came up with the idea of creating a tourist route that would allow the discovery of the history and production chain in the leather industry. We began to explore the idea of personalized visits to tanneries, factories, and specialized workshops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Laura: What kind of sustainability strategies have been implemented in the PiCaSo Tours?<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Manuel: <\/strong>I can think of several examples. One of our sustainable tourism products is&nbsp;the creation of the <strong>Leon Bike Tour<\/strong>, the very first cultural tour of the city without CO2 emissions allowing you to appreciate on bicycle 16 emblematic sights in Le\u00f3n, its traditional trade and its typical gastronomy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also have the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rutapicaso.mx\/sitio\/ruta-de-la-sustentabilidad.jsp\" rel=\"nofollow\"><strong>Sustainability Route<\/strong>,<\/a>&nbsp;a one-of-a-kind experience in Latin America in which we explore best practices in public institutions, natural parks, and private companies in the field of sustainability in the city of Le\u00f3n, Gto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, we have developed a dynamic evaluation tool for tourism providers based on the&nbsp;Global Sustainable Tourism Council criteria (GSTC),&nbsp;which was presented at the 2017 Mexican Congress of Applied Research in Tourism titled \u201cSustainable Tourism for Development\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/travindy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Ruta-Picaso-4.jpg\" alt=\"Can economic discovery tourism be regenerative?

Be amazed, for example, at the sight of the amount of steps required to create a unique pair of shoes, can raise awareness about the meticulous work involved, giving added value to the product and the shoemaker for his skills. This personal reflection will certainly influence the visitor\u2019s shopping behavior in the future.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Relationship with others<\/strong>: creating collective learning spaces through manual and\/or physical exercises will allow all group members to shine. For example, learning how to craft a leather wallet allows you to put yourself in the artisan\u2019s shoes, appreciating not only his know-how, but also his role in the production chain required for the complete elaboration of the article. <br><br><strong>Relationship with nature (or the place visited)<\/strong>: to sense a place\u2019s unique essence through sight, touch, smell and hearing will allow the visitor to identify the characteristics of an immersive experience. This sensorial discovery leads to a deeper connection with the spirit of the place or territory visited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Laura: Without a doubt, regenerative tourism offers many possibilities.

This can be listening to the Angelus Prayer during the lunch break in a hat factory, or learning the shoemaker\u2019s prayer, or discovering the tanners\u2019 and shoemakers\u2019 patron saints. Experiencing a community\u2019s sacred moments, or an individual\u2019s spirituality creates spaces of communion to better understand the local idiosyncrasy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Laura: How has the local population reacted to others valuing their knowledge and culture?<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Manuel:<\/strong> The pride of sharing traditional trades with both national and international visitors is an intrinsic part of the city of Le\u00f3n\u2019s history and identity. It is the satisfaction of seeing the value that visitors place in their craft, when they see the amount of work involved in making a leather article, from the tanning of skins to the finished product.
