Journal Title: Studia Universitatis "Vasile Goldis" Arad - Seria Stiinte Ingineresti si agro-turism - Year 2009, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Rural tourism is an actual and old phenomenon at the same time. The interest for the recovery of the rural environment started to grow beginning with the 19th century, as a response to the stress owned to urbanism and the expanding industrialization. The important aspect is that the rural tourism from our period is different if we refer only to the number of tourists involved which has grown significantly and the tourism which has developed in all types of rural settlements, without being limited to areas of an exceptional beauty. According to a broader tradition, "rural tourism includes a range of activities, services, arrangements offered by farmers, peasants and local villagers, to attract tourists into their area, action which generates supplementary incomes for their businesses."
