Abstract
Yahuarcocha se ubica en Ibarra, capital de Imbabura, conocida como la provincia de los lagos y reconocida por la Organización de las Naciones Unidas como geoparque mundial, el sitio cuenta con potencialidades como valor paisajístico, social, histórico y cultural, cada uno de estos aspectos son los que le dan vida y le permiten ser una parte importante del cantón Ibarra. Es evidente que Yahuarcocha posee muchas cualidades significativas, sin embargo, al analizar los espacios existentes evidenciamos problemáticas importantes como es la carencia de área pública planificada que funcione de forma óptima y con propuestas de actividades para fortalecer el territorio en el ámbito turístico, así como el tiempo de permanencia de los usuarios en el mismo. Es por esto que surge el planteamiento de un centro turístico y recreativo que optimiza los recursos medioambientales y visualiza como principal protagonista a la laguna de Yahuarcocha, con el fin de contribuir al interés de los ciudadanos por visitar este sitio, proponiendo espacios sociales, culturales, de hospedaje, contemplación y recreación que se integren a un medio natural y principalmente que se enfocan en ofrecer diferentes actividades para los distintos tipos de visitantes y sus requerimientos. Además, se contempla el diseño de una nueva vía arborizada como eje conector entre el proyecto y la vía José Tobar y Tobar, fortaleciendo de esta manera el ecosistema y equilibrando el impacto del espacio construido. La propuesta tiene como objetivo aprovechar los diferentes tipos de recursos que nos brinda Yahuarcocha basados en las particularidades existentes, mediante un planteamiento arquitectónico, urbano y paisajístico, el cual nace de la búsqueda por responder a las necesidades actuales, así como mejorar la interacción de los usuarios en una propuesta de espacio público con área natural, acondicionado con actividades para los usuarios que prefieren la experiencia de un turismo sustentable, para de esta manera potenciar la conservación y la apropiación del entorno natural, proporcionando un desarrollo colectivo.
Yahuarcocha is located in Ibarra, capital of Imbabura, known as the Lakes Province” and recognized by the United Nations Organization as a global geopark, the site has potentialities like landscape, social, historical and cultural value, each of these aspects give life and allow it to be an important part of Ibarra. It is evident that Yahuarcocha has many significant qualities, however, when analyzing the existing spaces, we can notice important problems such as the lack of a planned public area that could work properly and proposals for activities to strengthen the territory in the tourism field, as well as the length of stay in it. This is why my purpose is the creation of a tourist and recreation center that optimizes environmental resources and visualizes the Yahuarcocha lagoon as the main protagonist in order to contribute to the interest of citizens in visiting this site, proposing social, cultural, lodging, contemplation and recreational spaces to be integrated into a natural environment and mainly that they focus on offering different activities for each types of visitors and their requirements. In addition, the design of a new tree-lined road is contemplated as a connecting axis between the project and the José Tobar y Tobar” road, thus strengthening the ecosystem and balancing the impact of the built space. The proposal has the objective to take advantage of the different types of resources that Yahuarcocha offers us based on the existing characteristics, which is born from the search to respond to current needs, in order to improve the interaction of users in a proposal for a public space with a natural area, conditioned with activities for users who prefer the experience of a sustainable tourism, in order to enhance the conservation and appropriation of the natural environment, providing a collective development.
