Applying Inclusive Design and Digital Storytelling to Facilitate Cultural Tourism: A Review and Initial Framework

: This article aims to review and identify key challenges and opportunities in the interrelationship between cultural tourism, inclusive design, and digital storytelling ﬁelds. The literature review included searching Scopus , ScienceDirect , and Google Scholar for three main ﬁeld keywords, drawing 421 articles between 1990 and 2022. Content analysis was applied to literature ﬁndings and ﬁve categories with twenty-three themes emerged accordingly: (1) issues in cultural tourism; (2) diversity in museums; (3) inclusive design in museums; (4) motivation in museums; and (5) digital storytelling in museums. The article further discusses the nuanced relationship between these three ﬁelds and proposes an initial framework to help future growth of cultural tourism through increasing visitors’ motivation and diversity. As such, the work aims to facilitate cultural tourism as an activity that better reﬂects the diversity of its potential audiences and proactively addresses their needs, requirements and interests.


Introduction
Cultural tourism refers to "movements of persons for essentially cultural motivations such as study tours, performing arts and cultural tours, travel to festivals and other cultural events, visits to sites and monuments" [1].However, cultural tourism is often considered a niche part of the tourism market, and is given less attention drawing fewer local and foreign tourists compared to mass tourism [2][3][4].Between 1990 to the 2022, cultural tourism has faced several issues.This review article focuses on two significant issues that impact cultural tourism i.e., poor visitor diversity and motivation.
To connect with a broader diversity of visitors, this study draws on inclusive design and its principles.Inclusive design is defined as "a general approach to designing in which designers ensure that their products and services address the needs of the widest possible audience, irrespective of age or ability" [5].Adopting inclusive design principles helps make cultural tourism accessible to the widest range of users possible.These principles are also used to research, comprehend, and focus on different ages, abilities, interests, and backgrounds of people, as well as their psychosocial inclusion needs [6][7][8].
To increase motivation, this paper explores the potential of digital storytelling-a digital presentation technique incorporating narratives, plot points, and characters-rather than hard-sell advertising [9,10].It has been used successfully by many cultural and heritage sites and has been integrated with other digitalization approaches, such as virtual museums and applications.Moreover, digital storytelling can deliver engaging interpretations for a range of settings and subjects and helps to increase visitor motivation [7,[9][10][11][12].
This article aims to review the interrelationship between cultural tourism, inclusive design, and digital storytelling, and identifies certain challenges and opportunities.Moreover, it makes two contributions to the field: (1) it presents an initial framework for cultural

Systematic Searches in Different Databases
At this stage, researchers looked for studies from two major databases: Scopus, Sci-enceDirect, and Google Scholar as a secondary database.(When the information was not available on Scopus or ScienceDirect, Google Scholar was used.)This combination of three databases covered academic literature from journals, conference proceedings, and organization websites.The search keywords were "cultural tourism and inclusive design," "cultural tourism and digital storytelling," and "inclusive design and digital storytelling" from 1990 to 2022 in order to gather information from the past for comparison with the existing state of the industry.Next, the search terms were used for titles, abstracts, and keywords from the databases mentioned.Additionally, the results from searching keywords are illustrated in Table 2. Table 2. Results of studies from the keywords "cultural tourism" (CT), "inclusive design" (ID), and "digital storytelling" (DST) in the databases.The search results from all databases (from Table 2, Scopus totaled 106, and there were 313 from ScienceDirect) were imported into Endnote20, a bibliographic software.Researchers imported by selecting from the menu, "Import into duplicate library" to exclude duplicated articles into another folder.As a result, 48 out of the 419 articles were found to be duplicates and were removed from the software.So, the remaining articles totaled 371.

Organization of Relevant and Irrelevant Articles
This stage was composed of three main steps: reading all 371 titles and abstracts, and browsing through full articles.Researchers then grouped the articles into themes by applying content analysis and thematic analysis (grouping from the same meaning), then categorizing them based on topics such as problems, opportunities, trends, technologies, and the relationships between CT and ID, CT and DST, and ID and DST.

Searching for Additional Articles, Books, and Policies Using Other Forms of Searching
However, due to the limitation of articles on some topics, especially in digital storytelling, there are a few articles from both databases illustrated in Table 3, notably from 1996 to 2013.This was a research opportunity in terms of the digital storytelling topic matching inclusive design or cultural tourism.Therefore, researchers investigated, using Google Scholar as a gray area (not indexed in main databases but potentially related to the topic) to find information about the background of digital storytelling, as well as case studies on digital storytelling in cultural tourism from 1990 to present from books, conferences, and journal papers.Next, researchers searched Google Scholar for the top 500 articles out of 20,000 hits by reading only topics and abstracts and selecting 50 related articles.

Keyword Co-Occurrence Analysis
The systematic analysis of keywords illustrates the development of trends and research differences, as shown in Figure 1.Applying this technique, researchers could clearly understand the trends and relationships between all selected studies.A total of 371 remaining articles from Section 2 were based on the relationships between CT and DST, CT and ID, and ID and DST, which was recognized by the VOSviewer software.First, researchers imported all 371 articles into the program and set up the keywords so that a frequency of more than two appearances could be recognized by the program.The result of the screening was 115 qualified keywords from a total of 1,101 keywords, as presented in Table 4 and Figure 1 below.Through the co-occurrence of all keywords from 371 articles (Table 4 it could be recognized that most keywords in this area are about cultural h occurrences), which appeared the most, followed by virtual reality (ten occ gamification, digital storytelling, and culture (six occurrences each), resp ever, there are a few keywords in the areas of inclusive design and cultura diversity, universal design, user experience design, and accessibility) that score of around 2-3 occurrences.Therefore, this is an opportunity to fill that most studies overlook, which is to apply inclusive design with digital support cultural tourism.A framework for implementing this can be see which supports the use of inclusive design and digital storytelling as tools diversity and motivation for cultural tourism.Through the co-occurrence of all keywords from 371 articles (Table 4 and Figure 1), it could be recognized that most keywords in this area are about cultural heritage (eleven occurrences), which appeared the most, followed by virtual reality (ten occurrences), and gamification, digital storytelling, and culture (six occurrences each), respectively.However, there are a few keywords in the areas of inclusive design and cultural tourism (e.g., diversity, universal design, user experience design, and accessibility) that received a low score of around 2-3 occurrences.Therefore, this is an opportunity to fill a research gap that most studies overlook, which is to apply inclusive design with digital storytelling to support cultural tourism.A framework for implementing this can be seen in Figure 2, which supports the use of inclusive design and digital storytelling as tools for increasing diversity and motivation for cultural tourism.

Content analysis
All studies were examined using content analysis, which involves thematic coding achieved by grouping the meaning of the whole sentence or paragraph rather than the text.For the reliability test, results were rechecked and grouped by three researchers who worked together to discuss the final coding.In short, there are five groups with twentythree themes, as follows: Issues in cultural tourism: five themes presented in Table 5 Diversity in museums: four themes Inclusive design in museums: five themes Motivation in museums: two themes Digital storytelling in museums: seven themes

Areas Details and Research
Theme 2: Motivation

•
The fundamental nature of museums, as being educational, does not focus on the commercial promotion of or motivation for their products or services [30].

•
Some museums focus on the quality of collections and ignore motivational plans for audiences [30].

•
Museums aim to attract new and repeat visitors, but due to the lack of promotion and marketing, visitors do not gain motivation to visit [30,31].

•
Many visitors are not motivated to read stories in museums or visit cultural places [2,18,32].

•
If more consideration is given to tourists' interests, it may increase visitation, understanding, and appreciation of cultural sites and museums [33][34][35] • It can be challenging to seek out the motivations of disabled tourists [9,36].

•
There is not enough knowledge about how best to encourage disabled tourists to visit heritage sites [3,24].

•
Tourists that do not understand cultural tourism tend to have little motivation to travel [2,25].
Theme 3: Management and funding

•
A lack of investment in historical site conservation [26,40] • A lack of funding for heritage sites contributes to insufficient visitor management and site protection [40].

•
There is not enough cooperation between political bodies and cultural sites [41].

•
The government should improve the cultural environment of heritage sites, increase accessibility, and upgrade the amenities offered to tourists [46][47][48].

Theme 4: Marketing and branding
• Tourists are not invested in cultural sites and are unwilling to visit [49].

•
A lack of brand loyalty in the cultural tourism sector [50].

•
Museums lack marketing plans to communicate or attract and develop activities with visitors [52].

•
Museums have no purchasable physical products.Therefore, they need to create branding and corporate identity [30].
Theme 5: Personal experience

•
A lack of knowledge or personal experience [2].

•
Many tourists have not had a personal experience of visiting cultural sites [53,54].

Issues in Cultural Tourism: Five Themes
In the case of diversity, as the main issue, several studies have stated that less diversity among cultural tourists leads to less tourism in cultural places in general, which causes lower financial support from the government, consequently leading to other issues regarding management and funding.In terms of motivation, these problems diminish interest in cultural sites, leading to other problems with factors such as personal experience (tourists' lack of involvement and understanding at cultural sites) and marketing and branding issues (tourists' lack of brand royalty toward a cultural place and no advertising budget to attract the target audience) [3,4,19,22-24,26,29,42].

Diversity in Museums: Four Themes
Identifying the diversity of tourists in museums is the most challenging task for designers since there is no one universal classification for tourists.The most famous method for characterizing diversity was proposed by Loden et al. [55] and called the diversity wheel.This wheel is divided into four dimensions, comprising personality (general behavior when interacting with others), internal dimension (age, gender, physical ability, etc.), external dimension-affecting decision-making (education, marital status, place of residence, etc.), and organizational dimension (positioning of working) [55,56].Museum designers should understand the diversity of tourists, starting with their demographic profiles, and how they can establish a deeper level of exhibition connection with the visitors.However, demographic information alone is not enough.For example, tourists from various racial groups, who may originate from different countries and cultures, could have different lifestyles.
Therefore, museum designers should focus on the "why" question regarding visits because different tourists have different needs, purposes, motivations, and experiences.Theme 1: Demographic aspects Some studies have categorized tourists according to demographic aspects [55-57].Kasemsarn and Nickpour [58] studied five groups of tourists (youths, people uninterested in cultural tourism [noncultural tourists], older adults, people with disabilities, and cultural tourists) using a questionnaire to identify barriers to and drivers of cultural tourism.Theme 2: Learning aspects Regarding learning aspects, Levasseur and Veron [59] proposed four different types of museum visitors based on metaphors involving animals' movements.The resulting pattern is quite apparent, but some studies have suggested this method does not provide enough information because the walking pattern depends on the museum's exhibition layout design.Some studies have suggested focusing on tourists' learning behaviors [60,61].This suggestion illustrates that tourists have different learning styles: some prefer writing things down, others reading diagrams, maps, or using other visual or interactive media.This classification is appropriate and matches the aim of the museum as a learning place; however, it is not connected to tourists' identities.
Theme 3: Purposive aspects In the case of purpose for visiting, Falk and Dierking [62] proposed that tourists' needs and their purpose for visiting are crucial for museum designers.They argued that focusing only on demographic profiles does not allow for insight into tourist needs, expectations, etc.The focus should be on why tourists go to museums, instead of on which tourists go to museums.Their studies categorized tourists into seven personas, as presented in Table 6.Theme 4: Motivational aspects Stein, Garibay, and Wilson [63] suggest that ethnic background, age, and social group are insufficient to understand motivations.Their study aims to understand non-traditional audiences and, specifically, identify different groups of immigrant visitors to museums and their motivations for visiting as follows: (1) Home country values-immigrants who enjoy the familiarity and comfort of an exhibition related to their home country (e.g., an Indian immigrant regularly took her child to the Cincinnati museum).
(2) Community's cultural values-immigrants who spend their leisure time or quality time with their family, community members, or engage in social interactions.
(3) Educational values-immigrants who try to educate their children and identify museums as appropriate places for this.
(4) Cultural identity values-immigrants who feel strong personal connections with their cultural identity at a museum exhibition.
Han [64] refers to an exhibition about Chinese people in America titled "Where is Home?" at the Museum of Chinese America, New York.This exhibition aimed to present Chinese immigrant identity by dividing audiences into three target groups, telling each about their homeland: (1) The community-Chinese living in a small area, such as Chinatown, who want to know about the area's origins.
(2) The national-Chinese nationals who want to know about Chinese immigrant history in the US.
(3) The global-a worldwide Chinese audience who want to know about the Chinese immigrant journey to America, Africa, and Southeast Asia.The tourism industry tends to ignore this demographic and treats them as general tourists [3,66,67].However, the average age of the global population continues to increase; and people are living longer, healthier lives due to advances in medical care.As such, older adults have become a powerful consumer group with large amounts of free time and the capacity to pay for some of the support services and facilities they need, such as wheelchair ramps or medical staff [66].
Theme 2: understanding people with disabilities Currently, around 10% of the global population is made up of people with disabilities [67].Research indicates that this demographic comprises very loyal customers who will return to places that offer suitable accessibility options for their needs.Providing for this market can drive significant revenue for the wider tourism industry, including cultural tourism [3, 24,68,69].This is supported by Shaw-Lawrence's statement, "It is essential that countries that wish to expand their incoming travel markets should have the necessary facilities in place and an understanding of how to service the special needs of tourists with disabilities" [67] (p.8).
Theme 3: understanding youth Cultural sites sometimes assume that only older people are interested in cultural tourism and so ignore the youth demographic.However, the Scottish Executive has identified young people as a key target group for cultural tourism now, and in the future when they are adults.To prepare for future trends in cultural tourism, government and industry must develop a more detailed understanding of the range of demographic profiles, lifestyles, barriers, drivers, and behaviors among youth cohorts [29,70].Theme 4: understanding barriers and drivers of visitors Different tourist groups (e.g., older adults, people with disabilities, and young people) have varying characteristics and needs, including those that relate to the barriers and drivers of cultural tourism engagement [7,29].Dong, Keates, and Clarkson [71] illustrate that inclusive design enables the examination of drivers and barriers so that drivers can be supported and barriers erased.
Kasemsarn and Nickpour [2] (p.409) studied five groups of tourists (youth, people uninterested in cultural tourism [noncultural tourists], older adults, people with disabilities, and cultural tourists) using a questionnaire to identify barriers to remove and drivers to support cultural tourism.The results showed that the top barriers were "lack of time to attend" (youth, non-cultural tourists, and cultural tourists), "difficult to access via public transport" (older adults), and "physical well-being" (disabled people).Regarding drivers that should be promoted, the following were most important: "outstanding scenery" (youth); "visiting a place that I have not visited before" (older adults); "prestige, pride, and patriotism" (disabled people); "spending time with family/friends" (non-cultural tourists); and "increasing knowledge about foreign destinations, people, and things" (cultural tourists).

Theme 5: understanding the lifestyles and behaviors of visitors
To encourage more non-cultural tourists, the focus should be on cultural organizations learning more about the lifestyles and motivations of groups who make up a smaller percentage of their visitor numbers [19].For example, young people may not participate in cultural tourism because they do not adequately understand the relevance of a heritage site.By learning more about the interests and behaviors of youth tourists, cultural sites can develop more personalized ways to encourage them to visit, engage with, and appreciate cultural sites and museums [18,29,72]

Motivation in Museums: Two Themes
When tourists go to heritage sites, many avoid reading or only read a limited amount of the information provided [2,18,32].This can be due to a lack of understanding about, or enjoyment of, a cultural site and the stories presented there [37,38,72].This problem offers an opportunity to facilitate greater engagement with cultural tourism.Digital storytelling can deliver engaging interpretations for a range of settings and subjects and helps to increase visitor motivation [7,[9][10][11][12].
Theme 1: push and pull motivation Generally, motivation drives individuals and directs them to act in certain ways [73].Researchers have suggested that two core drivers motivate travel: push and pull.Push motivation relates to the desire or inspiration that induces an individual to travel, the socio-psychological motive, whereas pull motivation relates to the desire to visit a destination based on the attributes of that place [11,73,74].Within tourism research, push and pull theory is generally considered to be a helpful framework for understanding travel motivation and identifying destination attributes.
The concept of push and pull motivation has also been incorporated into marketing strategies and informs advertising and presentations.Push strategies use promotion to generate demand and drive customer purchases, whereas pull strategies use marketing research and branding to motivate customers to seek out a product [75,76] Theme 2: push and pull strategies applied with digital storytelling Push and pull marketing strategies can also be applied to the use of digital storytelling.Push marketing techniques are used in digital media presentations for applications, websites, interactive museum kiosks, and games; and storytelling techniques are employed to directly motivate visitors to visit or stay longer at museums or heritage sites.For example, digital storytelling techniques can be used to inform customers of interesting activities or new destinations, highlighting the value of being a cultural tourist who explores the latest exhibition or festival, and encouraging customers to "find themselves" by traveling [7,10,77] In pull marketing, digital storytelling can be applied to create a brand for the museum or heritage site and uses that brand to increase travelers' motivation to visit cultural sites.Using stories to convey the experience or history of a cultural place can make tourists feel proud or interested, which then attracts them to visit from the "inside" [75,76].
Digital storytelling presentations that use both the push and pull strategies can also encourage users to focus on a story in either the virtual or physical museum space, and increase motivation to visit the actual locations [9, 78,79].Overall, digital storytelling can strengthen connections between people and places, and deliver push and pull storytelling methods that present cultural experiences.Thus, it represents a valuable tool for increasing the motivation of people to engage in cultural tourism.

Digital Storytelling in Museums: Seven Themes
Theme 1: digital storytelling for both online and on-site museums Many studies have tried to identify the best methods for attracting on-site and online visitors to museums and heritage sites without boring an audience [7,77,80].The findings can be applied in tandem with digital storytelling to increase visitor awareness of the context of a site or object and motivate visitors to explore the site or object as an entertainment activity.
With advances in technology, digital storytelling has become a method for delivering engaging content on online platforms [7,9,10,80,81].When embedded in an organization's website or application, digital storytelling can connect physical and virtual visitors with a range of collections, histories, and stories.
The question has also been raised as to how the latest technology can be used to support tourists to travel online (e.g., through virtual museums).Virtual reality and augmented reality technologies can mean a visitor is not required to leave home.There is concern that such technology may further decrease the motivation of visitors to travel to actual historical places or museums.However, research has indicated that it increases motivation to visit virtual or online museums and motivates them to visit the actual museums in the future [7,9,10,80,81].
Pescarin et al. [82] presented an on-site virtual tour of the museum on Palatine Hill, which is different from other virtual museum experiences as it applies immersive technology through digital storytelling in a physical space.They argue that virtual museums are not only online platforms but also can be included in traditional exhibitions (e.g., the virtual museum of the Scrovegni Chapel).However, building on-site virtual museums is highly challenging due to associated limitations and complications (e.g., technical and communication issues).Theme 2: digital storytelling at museums from 2000 to 2010 In the early age (from 2000 to 2010) of digital storytelling for museums and heritage sites, a technique was used that presented on-site exhibitions to visitors through 360-degree or high-resolution images, 3-D animation, graphics, and movies to create realistic experiences from just assembling collectibles to foster the visitor experience [32,78,79].Three dimensional technology has been used to provide more striking interactive presentations than one-way communication can deliver.Online visitors can view 3D objects and rotate them to any angle, and these 3D presentations can increase user interest and experience [83].
Digital storytelling can provide visitors with various language options to deliver a truly universal communication opportunity [79,80].However, at that time, bandwidth internet connections required high-speed internet.As a result, some online museums offered both low-and high-resolution presentations and required plug-ins and up-to-date web browsers.Therefore, not everyone was able to access the presentations.
From 2000-2010, strong examples of digital storytelling included the virtual Smithsonian tour and the Virtual Museum of Iraq.The virtual Smithsonian tour presented stories on the history of humans and nature by allowing online visitors to walk through the virtual museum (in the same format as today's Google Street View).Online visitors could access high-resolution images, videos, audio, and artifacts that could be viewed and rotated in 3D.Different versions of the tour were provided to be mobile compatible and to cater to low-and high-speed broadband connections [83].The Virtual Museum of Iraq presented 3D models that users could rotate, which were accompanied by short video presentations telling stories related to the objects.The films, animations, and reconstructions were offered in Italian, English, and Arabic [84].
The key trends, techniques, and issues for museums in this period (2000-2010) can be summarized as follows: (1) creating a visitor experience from on-view exhibitions [32,79]; (2) using 3D images to deliver a new museum experience to online users [83,84]; (3) providing virtual access to inaccessible objects and places [79,80]; (4) offering universal forms of communication, e.g., different languages [79,80]; and (5) requirements for high-speed internet bandwidth [79,83].Theme 3: digital storytelling at museums from 2010 to the present From 2010 onwards, rapid technology developments, including mobile technologies, enabled advances in the delivery of digital storytelling.For example, a GPS enabled users to be located and shown maps with augmented reality displayed via smart devices for engaging site-specific storytelling Online museums offer users a range of ways to provide feedback, rate their experience, or answer questions about their interests, which enables them to be matched with information that aligns with their interests.This provides users with a customized and personalized experience [7,81,[85][86][87][88].
From 2010 to the present, the use of digital storytelling in museums has focused on (1) applying user experience methods [36,81,86,89,90]; (2) presenting personalized information that matches a user's interests and enabling users to customize, personalize, and share their interests on social media [36,81,87,89,90]; and (3) using mobile device technology (e.g., GPS/AR) [81,[86][87][88]91].Theme 4: increasing accessibility Sundstedt et al. [92] see virtual technology as providing a new opportunity for heritage sites and museums as a form of virtual recreation.Additionally, digital technology can provide precise data on an object or place, deliver digital storytelling to attract visitors, and increase access for researchers and tourists.Some historical sites cannot be visited due to the expense, an inhospitable or remote location, site fragility, security issues or conflict, or if the site no longer exists [77,93].Combining virtual models with digital storytelling can enable visitors to interact with fragile objects that cannot be handled or historical sites that cannot be visited in the real world [9, 77,93].
Theme 5: re-create no longer existing places Rizvić and Skalonjić [94] applied digital storytelling to reconstruct the Sultan Murat's Fortress in Sjenica, Serbia, which had been destroyed.In this project, visitors can explore the original appearance and study the history of this site by using a 3D VR system that recreates tombs and artifacts.The creators believe that technology alone is not enough and that applying digital storytelling as well can create life and feeling for visitors.
The Westwood Experience used mixed reality, including images, audio, and AR, to link a real location to the past.The digital storytelling approach allowed the user to follow the mayor of Westwood on a guided tour of the town in 1949.Interestingly, users had to walk 1.1 miles for the presentation, with all the interactions and narratives of the story presented along the way.In addition, the CHESS (cultural heritage experiences through socio-personal interactions and storytelling) experience [95] allowed visitors to complete a short quiz that identified their preferences and interests.They were then provided with a personalized interactive storytelling experience.Theme 6: creating a city's digital memories Beijing Memory Project, which started in 2013, is a good example of applying digital storytelling to become broader.This project aims to collect and transfer all cultural musings of Beijing, such as those related to nostalgia, identity, basic resources, literary works, and cultural activities, into digital preservation.Work is presented through digital, archival, personal narratives of audiences, pictures, 3D models, news, books, articles, videos, games, and websites [96].These collectively represent the whole city via digital storytelling as digital memory.
Theme 7: Digital storytelling with the latest technology Garzotto et al. [97] recommended that VR technology and 360 • educational video presentation be used in heritage places and museums.VR is appropriate for the younger generation, who are interested in the latest technology that brings to life extinct historical or far-away places.Park et al. [98] proposed a video-based virtual tour called film-induced tourism, using VR.Digital storytelling is applied to explore cultural heritage sites.This project aimed to improve visitors' attitudes and encourage motivation toward visiting the real site.It was developed in 2017 and released for the Android system with a VR function.
Next, augmented reality (AR) is multimedia content that mixes computer-generated images with footage shot at a real location using a video camera (e.g., animation, video, websites, or 3D).AR represents a hybrid of the real and virtual worlds.Nowadays, due to advances in mobile phone technology, it is both effective and widely used [99].
Guimarães et al. [100] suggest that a digital storytelling approach could be used with AR in several categories: (1) natural heritage-e.g., the San Antonio Zoo and Aquarium, the Garden by the Bay, Singapore, Kew Gardens, England; (2) historical and archaeological places-e.g., Talking Heritage Parques de Sintra, Portugal, New York Botanic Garden; and (3) garden maintenance-e.g., Seedmat, LeafSnap, and Bioplanet.
In brief, AR is a convenient technology because it requires only a mobile phone with an application; no external equipment is needed.Furthermore, it allows for gamification, en-hances entertainment, and deepens the narratives of digital storytelling through animation, video, audio, and 3D.
Mixed reality (MR) refers to locations which feature a combination of real and virtual objects within real and virtual environments.MR merges physical and digital space (e.g., a physical room with virtual objects).Nowadays, MR installations are deployed worldwide in heritage sites and museums to present visualizations, interactions, and interactive digital storytelling to improve visitors' experiences and cultural learning.Techniques used include fact/fantasy storytelling, multi-view 3D reconstruction, holographic technology, and diminished reality [101].
One example is eShadow, an MR digital storytelling platform inspired by traditional shadow theatre, which presents digital media (movies, games, and interactive animations) [102].Another example is Pleistocene Crete, an exhibition with MR and an interactive installation, which informs about life during the Pleistocene era (800,000 years ago) and aims to enhance visitors' experience through multi-sensory interactions.It creates a reconstruction of animals who lived in the past [101].

Conclusions
This article employed a systematic literature review and reviewed the interrelationship between cultural tourism, inclusive design, and digital storytelling.Certain challenges and opportunities were identified as presented in Section 4. 371 studies from Scopus and ScienceDirect were firstly reviewed, added by50 studies from Google Scholar.No literature was found focusing on the relationship between these three areas, indicating a research gap.Next, researchers took the content analysis approach to group all 421 papers which led to five categories and twenty-three themes accordingly.

Issues in cultural tourism
Between1990 and 2022, cultural tourism has faced issues ranging from diversity, motivation, management, and funding, to marketing, branding, and personal experience.However, this article focuses on two significant issues that mainly impact cultural tourism: poor visitor diversity and motivation, which can lead to other issues.

Diversity in museums
This is a highly challenging issue because there is no one universal classification for tourists.However, as per the literature review, diversity can be grouped as follows: (1) demographic aspects (age, gender, ethnicity, education, marital status, place of residence, and behavior), (2) learning aspects (focusing on visitors' learning behaviors, matched to the aim of the museum, as a learning place), (3) purposive aspects (emphasizing the visitors' needs and why they go to museums), and (4) motivational aspects (motivations for visiting museums).

Inclusive design in museums
Inclusive design literature review identified three overlooked cultural tourist groups: (1) older adults (over 60 years)-people are living longer and healthier due to the advancement of medical care, and this group has much free time, (2) those with disabilities-people in this group are loyal customers to places that support accessibility, and (3) youth (15-24 years)-this group comprises future adults, and the tourism industry should understand their barriers and drivers to predict and prepare future trends.Additionally, inclusive designers should understand that different groups have different characteristics and seek to identify the various barriers (to why they do not visit), drivers (for why they visit), and lifestyles.

Motivation in museums
This category is composed of mainly two themes, i.e.,push and pull motivations and how to apply them to digital storytelling.First, push and pull theory aims to understand visitors' motivation in terms of push, inspiration for the visitor to travel (e.g., promotion), and pull, related to attributes of the location (e.g., branding).In the case of push, digital storytelling can be used in media presentations to motivate visitors to visit museums, presenting interesting activities and exhibitions (from the outside).Regarding pull, digital storytelling can be applied to create branding; for instance, telling stories of museums can make visitors feel proud or interested (from the inside).

With the advancement of digital technology, digital storytelling has become a popular medium that can be applied both online and on-site, connecting with both physical and virtual visitors.During the early age of digital storytelling, 3D technology, virtual accessibility, offering different languages, and creating new visitor experiences were the main foci.However, there was an issue regarding high-speed internet bandwidth requirements.Therefore, after 2010, the advancement of mobile technology (e.g., GPS and AR), user experience approach, customization and personalization, and sharing on social media became significant aspects.Moreover, digital storytelling is increasing visitor accessibility (e.g., to remote, insecure, or fragile areas) and recreating extinct locations using MR, VR, or AR.
Prior to the framework in Figure 2, previous studies have identified the role of inclusive design in delivering accessible tourism based only on one group (e.g., older adults or people with disabilities).In relation to digital storytelling, the majority of studies have emphasized one specific group and often excluded certain groups.This initial framework can be applied broadly in both online and on-site digital storytelling presentations.However, if designers need to specifically design for certain tourist group segments or on-site/online media, it is recommended that they further research the details in-depth by applying inclusive design principles and digital storytelling techniques.
However, the limitations of this article include the scope of the databases, excluding WOS, and other aspects of categories excluded in business, management, and accounting, such as engineering, agriculture, economics, econometrics, and finance.This is due to the aim of this review article focusing on art and design research areas that facilitate cultural tourism.Furthermore, this review covers only the English language since it aims to explore universal problems in cultural tourism and illustrate worldwide trends.Therefore, future studies may extend this line by covering different dialects and foreign language journals from other countries to receive more specific information on the trends of each culture.
