Resumo: Manchester structures and promotes its central area through nine urban tourism precincts, within a broader strategy to create a new economic basis, turning it into a post-industrial centre of leisure and tourism, shopping and financial services. The aim was to understand the genesis of these precincts, as well as its use to attract tourists and in order to structure their experience in the city. It was evaluated that these precincts are a very useful way to promote Manchester, contributing to having transformed it in one of the main tourist destinations of the country.
