The potential rural religious tourism of South Crisana region from Romania and the economic implications of rural tourism

Abstract

In this paper we will present an analysis on the potential of rural tourism in the south region Crisana.From an administrative stand point, the South part of the Crisana region is bordered by Bihor in the north, the Alba, county in the East, the Timis county and the county of Hunedoara in the south and the border with Hungary in the West. Impact or implications of rural tourism refers to tourist industry effects on the local community, the area and the tourists. The impact of tourism can be positive or negative, depending on the effect they induce on the community or area. To study the impact of rural tourism, as emphasized in the literature, we have to analyze all government and local administration, entrepreneurs, residents and tourists. We want to present the main economic implications of rural tourism on the government and local administration, entrepreneurs, residents and tourists.
