摘要:As a consequence of the rapid growth of the tourism sector, special
emphasis is placed on destinations and tourism products connected to or based on certain physical and environmental factors. However, the
negative environmental consequences of tourism are, in many cases,
overemphasised to the social and/or economic elements of sustainable
development. Thus, it is important to find an adequate balance of the
elements mentioned above within tourism development in order to
achieve an optimal way of fulfilling all requirements of sustainable
development. In order to this, a potential method is introduced by
applying the Sustainability Value Map, developed originally for
buildings and urban development projects, to the evaluation of
sustainable tourism products. This method implies further questions
arisen concerning the selection of the right set of indicators and the
importance of local or regional issues. Using it as a tool, it may
promote the process of holistic tourism planning and development
