abstract = {This paper presents the results of a bibliometric analysis of academic research dealing with COVID-19 in the area 
of city destination development from 1 December 2019 to 31 March 2021. Particularly, by means of SciMAT 
software, it identifies, quantifies, and visually displays the main research clusters, thematic structure and 
emerging trends that city and tourism planners will face in the new normal. The search revealed that social media 
and smart tourism are the themes with the greatest potential; sustainable cities, local destination development, 
changes in tourist behavior, and tourists’ risk perception are underdeveloped streams with enormous relevance 
and growth in the new normal. Research on the effects of COVID-19 on citizen health and its economic impact on 
the tourism industry and cities are intersectional and highly developed topics, although of little relevance. The 
current study also identifies the challenges of destination research for planners and proposes future research 
directions. Consequently, this paper contributes to the existing literature on COVID-19 and sustainable cities, as 
it develops a critical examination of the extant research and points out the research gaps that must be filled by 
future studies.},
