Abstract: The Spa Phenomenon in the Lazio Region Between Cultural Traditions and Natural Heriatge. A Case Study: the Baths of Viterbo

After an introduction exploring the geohistory of the region, the research focusses on the town of Viterbo and examines how, in recent years, the Spa-related tourism has been integrated with the local economy and population.
Keywords: Spa Phenomenon, Geohistory, Integrated Tourism.
