The relationship between disaster tourism and earthquake museums is complex. While disaster tourism can provide a powerful firsthand experience of the impact of earthquakes, earthquake museums offer a more comprehensive understanding of the science and history of these events, as well as the steps that can be taken to prepare for and mitigate their effects. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to propose an earthquake memorial museum for dark tourism in Kahramanmaras, Turkey. Findings from literature review and recent Kahramanmaras earthquakes have shown that the earthquake sites have the potential to be developed as dark tourism sites. By developing these sites, countries can not only help to preserve the memory of the victims of these disasters, but also raise awareness about the importance of preparedness and disaster response. Moreover, visitors can gain a deeper appreciation for the impact of earthquakes. The findings were discussed and suggestions were presented.

Hüzün Turizmi ve Doğal Afetler: Kahramanmaraş’ta Bir Deprem Anıt Müzesi Önerisi

Öz

Felaket turizmi ile deprem anıt müzeleri arasındaki ilişki karmaşıktır. Felaket turizmi, depremlerin etkisine ilişkin ilk elden güçlü deneyimler sunabilirken, deprem anıt müzeleri bu olayların bilimselliği ve tarihi aracılığıyla depremin etkilerine hazırlanmak ve etkilerini azaltmak için atılabilecek adımlar hakkında kapsamlı bir anlayış sunmaktadır. Bu nedenle yapılan çalışmanın amacı, Kahramanmaraş’ta hüzün turizmi açısından bir deprem anıt müzesi önerisi sunmaktır. Yapılan literatür taraması ve son Kahramanmaraş depremlerinden elde edilen bulgular, deprem alanlarının hüzün turizmi alanları olma potansiyeline sahip olduğunu göstermiştir. Ülkeler, bu felaket alanlarını geliştirerek yalnızca bu felaketlerin kurbanlarının anılarının korunmasına yardımcı olmakla kalmamakta, aynı zamanda depremlere hazırlıklı olma ve afet müdahalesinin önemi konusunda farkındalık yaratmaktadır. Ayrıca, ziyaretçiler depremlerin etkisi konusunda daha içsel bir minnet duygusu kazanabilirler. Elde edilen bulgular literatürle tartışılmış ve öneriler sunulmuştur.
