including some in-depth interviews of the selected stakeholders. In the investigation of current and future
realities of tourism system, the study was based on a robust conceptual framework „FSSD‟- Framework for
Strategic Sustainable Development. With the framework, a generic vision of success had been defined in
the tourism industry along with exploring the sustainability integration mechanism in tourism development in
