Journal Title: GeoJournal of Tourism and Geosites - Year 2015, Vol 15, Issue 1
Abstract
The natural attractions of the territorial system Albac – Arieşeni are important due to their beauty and originality. These were all analysed in other articles and in the PhD thesis, therefore, we consider that a detailed overview is not necessary. This study aims to present aspects of leisure tourism within the territorial system Albac – Arieşeni. Through its content and its role, tourism represents today a distinct field of activity, a component of primary importance of the economic and social life. Due to the fact that the touristic resources are practically inexhaustible, tourism is one of the economic sectors with real prospects of long-term development. Tourism has major implications on the economic and social dynamics, on the national and international relationships, by means of its extent and complex content, because it implies the natural and material potential, as well as the human potential.
