摘要:In the influence area of a big city, the weekend tourism remains a dominantfeature, from the touristic point of view. Economical activities from an urban influence aremainly connected to the dynamic process and structure of other activities from “the bigcity” by a stream of matter, substance, energy and information propelled in different waysand with different intensities. Due to the dimension and different consequences of the cityon its surroundings, inside the influence area appear certain territorial disparities. In orderto diminish these and to empower them, the tourism generally, but the weekend tourism aswell, both can be an instrument of local, areal and even regional development policies. Thetouristic phenomenon turned itself into a true industry, building by itself an importantbranch of the tertiary sector. The nature of its complexity develops from the powerfulimplications that it has in the social, political, cultural and economic environment.Although the tourism industry distinguishes itself as a unique element, its future evolutionand development is determined by and is always connected to the development level of theother economical branches, at a national and local scale. At the same time, it has anoverwhelming part in developing these other branches, like the development of industry,agriculture, constructions, infrastructure, commerce, of the space culture, etc.
