The main objective of this research is to highlight the impact of tourism on cultural heritage, in addition to analyzing factors that derive from this phenomenon such as the transformation of land use due to gentrification, without forgetting other problems that may develop when having high tourist demand. As a result, we find that there is an absence of policies oriented towards a city project and that citizen participation is key to strengthening urban strategies to drive its continuous improvement. This way, the areas of sustainable development can be influenced: political, economic, social, cultural and environmental, making known how tourism currently works and impacts on this historic city in relation to the risk of depopulation and loss of identity. This concludes with recommendations oriented towards a harmonious relationship between tourism and cultural heritage for which it is necessary to implement environmental, social, economic and cultural policies for the conservation of historical-cultural heritage, which stops the gentrification process thus ensuring its protection along with its culture and identity values ??of its neighborhoods, which are increasingly attractive and important for the tourist and economic development policies of this city.
