Edinburgh has been named one of the world’s most serious ‘over-tourism hotspots’(Ferguson, 2019). There is no denying that tourism has boosted Edinburgh’s economy, but it has also caused problems, such as overcrowding in the city centre, damage to the environmental heritage, a poor tourist experience, and a negative impact on the lives of residents. This project addresses how to reduce the negative impact on the environment, society, and economy from over-tourism through transition design and explores the pathway of sustainable tourism.
