The Socialist Party councilor, Andrea Garries regrets Murcia year after year continue to offer the image of 'ghost town' in August and miss its tourism potential.
"Heat can not be an excuse but an opportunity and should be done once serious planning for tourism"
Garries argues "that a person comes to Murcia and you are with everything closed and no alternatives generates a bad picture just taking its toll on the economy of the whole municipality. We have thousands of tourists on the beaches within 60 miles and neither comes nor sleeps in our city. "
The PSOE mayor believes that "in a time of crisis the imagination is the best ally" and proposed the Consistory that promotes "the implementation of night tours, taking advantage of these hours down Murcia suffering intense heat in summer, following the example of other Spanish cities ".
"It's a different way to enjoy the city, either through itineraries with tour guides or through theatrical visits," says Garries.
Socialist Councillor also proposes that museums dependent city of Murcia (Ramon Gaya Museum, City Museum, and Museum of Science and Water) open at night during the summer months to become a tourist attraction more.
"Now it seems that the government team will take tourism seriously after 16 years without a strategy we believe that these initiatives can be positive," concluded the mayor of the socialist group who argues that "by far the majority of shares present Councilman Tourism, Miguel Cascales, seem pure political and personal marketing.
