Résumé anglais For nearly a century. Palma has been at the centre of tourist development in Majorca. It houses the island's major resort, Terreno, and as tourism has grown new resorts have been developed, providing a large and coherent structure. Over recent decades and especially during the last ten years, the different districts of Palma have experienced contrasting forms of development - the town of Palma, the western districts and the east of the island. What is the role of tourism today, and what does Palma represent ? Is it a resort or a tourist town. This example is used to analyse the development of a tourist destination and the relationships between tourism and town.
