The aim of the present paper is to investigate some features of tourism discourse found
in tourist brochures from Castellón de la Plana targeted at an English-speaker visitor.
Five brochures published by the Patronato Municipal de Turismo de Castellón de la
Plana and available at Tourist Info in Castellón have been gathered for the present
study. In the first section of the paper, a descriptive analysis of the macrostructure of the
brochures is presented regarding the general structure and organization of the text.
Then, a visual analysis and a study on the use of advertising were conducted. This paper
ends with an analysis of linguistic aspects, particularly translation strategies used when
translating touristic material from English into Spanish. [-]
