Višja zavest o skrbno urejenem okolju kot enem od dejavnikov povečanega turističnega obiska se je v sedemdesetih letih 19. stoletja kazala v ustanavljanju olepševalnih društev, ki so v mnogih primerih poleg okolja skrbela še za hitrejši turistični razvoj krajev in mest, kjer so delovala. Olepševalno društvo je v tem času nastalo tudi v Mariboru. Večino svoje dejavnosti je posvetilo urejanju in širjenju mestnega parka, ki je tako postal ena od poglavitnih mestnih turističnih znamenitosti. Vzporedno z naraščajočim tujskim prometom se je v Mariboru širila gostinska ponudba, prav tako pa so se večale prenočitvene možnosti.

Nina Hriberšek Vuk: The Maribor Euphemistic Society and the City's Tourist Ofter in the last Decades before the World War I. Review for History and Ethnography, Maribor 81=46(2010),2-3, pp. 71-94

The higher consciousness in carefully designed environment as one of the factors for higher numbers of tourists visiting was in the 70ies of the 19th century shown in the form establishing euphemistic societies, which in many cases took care not only of the environment but also of a quicker tourist development of towns and cities they were active in. The euphemistic society was in that time established also in Maribor. its major activity was the care for and expansion of the city park that became one of the central city sights. In Maribor the gastronomic and the overnight accommodation offer grew paralle to the growing number of tourists.
