The aim of this article is the scientific mapping of Cittaslow-related publications in the Scopus database with the R Studio-Biblioshiny program. The bibliometric analysis method, which is a quantitative research method, was applied in the research. The research method was realized in two steps. In the first step, the Scopus database was searched for title-summary-keywords (TS=(cittaslow OR Cittaslow OR CittaSlow OR CittaSlow OR "slow city" OR "slow cities"). As a result of this search, 182 publications on the subject were accessed. In the second step, the data obtained were analyzed through the Biblioshiny program. These analyses consisted of the analysis of authors, institutions, documents, countries, citations, and words. According to the results of the analysis, there are 182 publications between 2003 and 2024. The number of documents in the Scopus database peaked in 2021. Among the authors, Pink and Jaszczak have the most publications. The countries with the highest number of publications on slow cities are Turkey, Poland, and the United Kingdom. According to Biblioshiny software data analysis, the most relevant sources are Sustainability, Sustainable Tourism, and Tourism Planning and Development. In addition, thematic maps and statistical data analysis of factorial analyses are visualized. The words with the highest frequency of keywords used in the publications are sustainable development, quality of life, urban development, urban planning, slow tourism, urban areas, and globalization. A word cloud of these words was created. In the word cloud, the word(s) with the highest frequency value are visualized as larger in font size and the other words are visualized as smaller according to the frequency value and a colorful word cloud is formed. As a result, by scientifically mapping the publications on cittaslow in recent years, the existing publications have been evaluated and a road map has been drawn for researchers to get an idea.
