touristic
Designed for travelers
Touristic describes things relating to or designed for tourists: touristic attractions, touristic areas of the city.
The word often carries a faintly dismissive tone, suggesting something commercialized or inauthentic—places that cater to visitors rather than reflecting genuine local character.
We avoided the touristic restaurants near the cathedral.
