Tourism also produces heri-tage. The paper considers the empirical domain of slum tourism, where bottom-up processes of attraction making are dominant. Such attraction making contributes to the recognition of Kibera as part of the urban heritage of Nairobi. Tourists are seeking elements of local culture to which guides respond creatively and spontaneously, creating the potential for the touristic 'discovery' of heritage. Guides are also taking a more active role in re-producing relatively es-tablished notions or imaginaries of slum life, at times evoking heritage in notions of history, culture and locality. We advance people-centered approaches to understanding heritage, by showing the potential of tourist-guide interactions to create place attachment. (c) 2021 Elsevier Ltd.
