摘要：Romania has a remarkable industrial heritage, the salt mines being tourist destinations that record upward inbound tourist flows in recent decades. Starting from this hypothesis, validated by the rising number of visitors in the last decade, the objectives of the study were: identifying the size of tourist circulation, the dynamics of the number of accommodation units and accommodation capacity situated in the surroundings of the salt mines in the last three decades; their correlation with the investments made and the forms of tourism practiced; a comparative analysis of the salt mines opened to tourists and highlighting the gaps in capitalizing on the tourist potential. The research is based on the statistical information provided by: INS, Bucharest, Tempo-Online database; the companies that manage the salt mines, as well as on the international literature. An important conclusion of the study is that tourist facilities of the salt mines, are focused mainly on leisure and medical tourism, not on industrial tourism.
