Ways to Capitalize on the Tourist Potential of Region 2 South-East

Abstract

This article presents a study on the development of tourism activities in Region 2 South East, especially in protected areas from the perspective of the national strategy for ecotourism development and with interferences of cultural tourism well supported by ethnic and cultural diversity, both in Dobrogea and in areas mountains located at the edge of the Carpathian arc. The fundamental arguments of this approach are provided by the large number of protected areas existing in the coastal area and the delta, as well as in Vrancea and Buzău counties where the maintenance of cultural traditions offers the possibility of a better capitalization of local resources. The main actors in these areas are also active factors in identifying the main lines of tourism development in the current particularly complex conditions,.
