Resumo: Cities and metropolises compete with each other to attract tourists from other parts of the world. The image they project plays an important role in tourists’ decision-making and in the development of effective competition strategies. There is a clear preponderance use of structured techniques on tourism destination image and very few studies use unstructured methods as the main technique. Some authors claim for more pluralistic approaches to improve the knowledge of tourism destination image. The aim of this study is to propose a new image research approach through the PIE Method exploring the image of six European capitals.
