- Abstract
Public relations play a significant role in promoting tourism in low-travel zones. The low travel zones are largely characterized by low tourism activities. The conference paper examined the diverse public relations strategies that can be used to promote a destination. The techniques discussed are campaigns on social media platforms, destination branding, and media relations. The public relations strategies help promote tourism in low travel zones thereby enhancing the economic development of such places. The paper highlights the significance of aligning public relations efforts with destination branding to create a compelling narrative and image of the destination which can attract potential tourists to that place. Challenges that counter the efforts of promoting low travel zones such as sustainability issues, limited resources, and competition from urban centers with iconic features are equally discussed in the paper. Integrating effective public relations strategies can enhance the appeal of Hong Kong’s low-travel zones. This drives tourism in the low travel zones thereby fostering economic growth and development of Hong Kong’s low travel zones.
