Description :
Urban tourism has become a mass phenomenon and is not restricted to highly educated tourists any more. Therefore, the way the city is gazed upon is changing. the article discusses theses changes with reference to Urry's concept of the tourist gaze using florence/Italy as an example. It is shown that urban tourism in postmodern times is characterised by a diversity of different gazes. Finally, the chances and limitations of Urry's concept are discussed. the article is based on results of an ongoing project which is concerned with the experience of tourists in cities.
