In Colombia, mainly in the city of Medellín, travel agencies and tour guides promote a tourist route called narcotour which includes a visit to the properties and grave of Pablo Escobar, a famous Colombian drug trafficker who died in the 90s. As this is a controversial tour that makes reference to such a complex figure in the history and memory of the Colombian people and to a period of high violence in Colombia, the present research aimed to investigate if and how the realization of narcotour comes inducing a process of re-functionalization of the objects inserted in the tour making them suitable for tourist consumption. The methodology was based on bibliographic research and structured observation of objects in loco. The results show that tourism was not an important vector for the re-functionalization of all objects appropriated by the tour, despite giving them a new value and a new meaning, it was not able to officially choose these spaces as cultural and historical heritage of the city of Medellin. The official tourism policy of the city and the country against the tourist valuation of Pablo Escobar's memory promotes a series of actions in an attempt to make invisible or even to destroy the attractions of narcotour in an attempt to erase a period in the history of the which the country is not proud of. In this way, the study on narcotour reveals profound socio-spatial contradictions in the production of Medellín's urban space En Colombia, sobre todo en la ciudad de Medellín, las agencias de viaje y las guías de turismo promueven un itinerario turístico denominado narcotour que incluye la visita a residencias, propiedades y la tumba de Pablo Escobar, un famoso narcotraficante colombiano, muerto en la década de 1990. Por tratarse de un itinerario polémico que hace referencia a una figura tan compleja en la historia y en la memoria del pueblo colombiano y a un período de alto índice de violencia en Colombia, la presente investigación tuvo por objetivo investigar cómo la realización del narcotour ha inducido un proceso de refuncionalización de los elementos incluidos en el itinerario, tornándolos aptos para el consumo turístico. Para alcanzar el objetivo trazado, la metodología se basó en una investigación bibliográfica y una observación de los elementos estructurada in loco. Los resultados indican que el turismo no resulta un importante vector de refuncionalización de todos los elementos apropiados para el itinerario, pues a pesar de atribuirles un nuevo valor y un nuevo significado, no fue capaz de elegir oficialmente esos espacios como patrimonio histórico cultural de la ciudad de Medellín. La política oficial de turismo de la ciudad y del país, a contramano de la valoración turística de la memoria de Pablo Escobar, promueve una serie de acciones que intentan invisibilizar e incluso destruir los atractivos del narcotour, para borrar un período de la historia del cual el país no se enorgullece. De esta forma, el estudio sobre el narcotour revela contradicciones socio-espaciales profundas en la producción del espacio urbano de Medellín 2021-07-12T11:34:46Z 2021-07-12T11:34:46Z 2020 article TODESCO, Carolina; SILVA JÚNIOR, Francisco Xavier da.
