Greetings again, fellow city builders! I have great news today. As a part of free Parklife update Cities: Skylines will expand more into Tourism. In a nutshell this means that we want to give you a better understanding why and how tourists are coming to the City and which locations they visit. All this to help you make your City the number one tourist attraction!
New Tourism Info View
Tourism finally gets its own Info View and it replaces the Tourism subpanel under the Outside Connections. The new Tourism Info View provides more valuable information on tourist activity than before, as well as more detailed information of the various attractions in your City. The new panel is unlocked at Milestone Worthy Village and shows the tourist presence in the city more precisely and the Attractiveness of various buildings and areas with an Attractiveness value. This means you can now have quick and easy visualization of both where your tourists are visiting and which buildings and locations attract tourists. This helps you plan your road layout, public transportation lines and give a general idea which areas in your City are drawing in the visitors. The budget panel has also been updated with more details of money spent by tourists.

Tourists have arrived!
We have added 10 new tourist models as a variation your citizens and to bring more ethnicity to the City streets. And the best part? New Tourists models are free content and arrive to every City that has tourists automatically! Are you ready?

New vehicles
With this update we are also improving how the tourists arrive to your cities. As a part of industry boom the car factories have created Vans and Trailers for Campers and they seem to be quite popular among some, more wealthier tourists. This marks a new dawn for those tourists who come to your city by motor vehicles.
And for those who (will purchase / have purchased) the Parklife DLC (Thank you by the way) we have the awesome Hot Air Balloon, Double Decker Sightseeing Bus vehicles and the Park Staff personnel jeep on top of those Camper Vans & Trailers for the pleasure of your tourists and citizens alike. We can't wait to see what you guys make out of those in the asset editor and in in-game.
Camper Vans and Trailers are a regular sight in a City with focus on tourism. You can find them usually near different attractions.
Mascot Madness
Last but not least, someone might've already noticed little alligator and chirper mascots occasionally appearing in our screenshots. Well, that's because we have mascot models appearing with Amusement Park and Zoo buildings as a part of paid content. The mascots are there to take care of your buildings and entertaining visitors and you can also find them in Asset Editor along with Park Staff. All these new workers are there to ensure your Park Areas are kept in top notch condition!
