Památky a kultura v Uherském Hradišti z pohledu vozíčkáře

Abstract

This thesis seeks to provide a detailed description of a specific form of tourism, namely that carried out by wheelchair users in the town of Uherské Hradiště. Expanding on the progress of the definition of tourism, its sort and form, the theoretical part also defines the basic terminology as used in the thesis. The disabilities, needs and approaches to wheelchairs users are also introduced in the theoretical part. The next part of the thesis deals with the routes, histories and characteristics of particular buildings, with an emphasis on their accessibility. Based on the findings - including the fact that that there is not enough information or sources for handicaped people - I decided to introduce the town of Uherské Hradiště as one that adapts to disabled people's needs. The goal is to present Uherské Hradiště as a suitable destination for disabled visitors and supply them with basic information about the accessibility of each building.
