description In this article, I review proposed guidelines for the touristic management of micro-territories, to establish the foundation for new neighborhood-oriented planning methodologies (micro-territories). I proposed an exploratory methodology upon which I built the baseline for organizing micro-territories considering three main axes. The first axis is a diagnosis, subdivided into components: tourism, social, and environmental, each with its indicators and evaluations. The information for its construction was gathered through direct observation and information compilation. The second axis corresponds to satellite localization and categorization of micro spaces. These were constructed on Google Earth, based on diagnostic information, and are integral parts of a micro-territory; The third axis consists of strategies for strengthening the micro-territory; in this section, I provide ideas to assist decision-makers in the studied neighborhood. The micro-territory of San Juan, located in Quito’s Oldtown was selected for this study. The results indicate that San Juan’s neighborhood has the potential to develop tourism activities, along with an important social base and good natural diversity. These aspects were reflected in four micro-spaces and the development of various strategies, ranging from public lighting to tree planting in the area. In conclusion, it is reaffirmed that the proposal is feasible; however, aspects such as its scope need to be adjusted, certain evaluation indicators need to be changed, or additional micro-spaces need to be included.

Para ello se propuso una metodología exploratoria, en la cual se fueron construyendo las bases para el ordenamiento de microterritorios a través de tres ejes principales. Un diagnóstico subdividido en componentes: turístico, social y ambiental, cada uno con sus propios indicadores y evaluaciones. La información para su construcción se recopiló a través de observación directa y compilación de información. El segundo eje es la localización satelital y categorización de microespacios. Los microespacios se obtienen en base a la información del diagnóstico y son partes integrales de un microterritorio, para su construcción se usó Google Earth. El tercer eje son estrategias para el fortalecimiento del microterritorio; en este apartado se brindan ideas que sirvan a los tomadores de decisiones del barrio estudiado. El microterritorio San Juan, ubicado en el Centro Histórico de Quito, fue seleccionado para el desarrollo de la propuesta. Los resultados obtenidos señalan que el barrio San Juan cuenta con potencial para desarrollar la actividad turística, una base social importante y una buena diversidad natural. Estos aspectos fueron traducidos en la creación de cuatro microespacios y la elaboración de estrategias variadas que van desde alumbrado público hasta arborización de la zona. En conclusión, se reafirma que la propuesta es factible; sin embargo, se deben corregir aspectos como la extensión de la misma, cambiar ciertos indicadores de evaluación o aumentar otros microespacios.Universidad Central del Ecuador2024-09-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdftext/htmlapplication/ziptext/xmlhttps://revistadigital.uce.edu.ec/index.php/SIEMBRA/article/view/664010.29166/siembra.v11i2.6640Siembra; Vol. 11 No. 2 (2024); e6640Siembra; Vol. 11 Núm. 2 (2024); e66402477-88501390-892810.29166/siembra.v11i2reponame:Revista Siembrainstname:Universidad Central del Ecuadorinstacron:UCEspaenghttps://revistadigital.uce.edu.ec/index.php/SIEMBRA/article/view/6640/8779https://revistadigital.uce.edu.ec/index.php/SIEMBRA/article/view/6640/10123https://revistadigital.uce.edu.ec/index.php/SIEMBRA/article/view/6640/8950https://revistadigital.uce.edu.ec/index.php/SIEMBRA/article/view/6640/8949https://revistadigital.uce.edu.ec/index.php/SIEMBRA/article/view/6640/8948Derechos de autor 2024 David Alexander Ojeda Chiribogahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2025-05-20T18:35:15Zoai:revistadigital.uce.edu.ec:article/6640Portal de revistashttps://revistadigital.uce.edu.ec/Universidad públicahttps://uce.edu.ec/**Ecuador*2477-88501390-8928opendoar:*2025-05-20T18:35:15Revista Siembra - Universidad Central del Ecuadorfalse
