PREMISES FOR TOURISM DEVELOPMENT ON THE BISTRIŢA AURIE VALLEY
Journal Title: Present Environment and Sustainable Development - Year 2008, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
The Romanian rural space includes old boroughs that lost their function and importance and in many cases, the number of their inhabitants decreased too. In this period, many of them obtained the status of town. In the context of the development of bathing tourism, from the end of the 19th century until the Second World War, many of these places were bathing, climatic or bathing-climatic resorts. In the situation of the European economic integration, the sustainable rural development of these areas can be supported by tourism development. On the Bistriţa Aurie Valley, a traditional area, rural tourism could be reinforced by rebuilding the bathing capacity of Iacobeni, by reacquiring the status of bathingclimatic resort and by intensifying the tourist activity in Ciocăneşti. For the whole region, given the fact that the mining activity stopped, tourism could be an option for future development.
