Intervention of public space of the foundational center of the municipality of Circasia, Quindío, within the framework of the coffee cultural landscape

Abstract

This research includes the urban architectural analysis of the intervention of the public space in the main park of the municipality of Circasia, where different urban actions that respond mainly to tourism are evidenced. However, the results show intentions of heritage conservation in terms of preserving the dynamics of public space and the identity of the municipality. It is framed in the context of the Coffee Cultural Landscape, not only because of the territorial delimitation but also because of the impact of the patrimonialization in the urban context, considering the highlighted values, but also the great use as a tourist project by the departmental development plan. In this aspect, some of the municipalities have taken as an approach the improvement of their public spaces as conservation and economic development strategies.
