Man, space and tourism

Abstract

Modern tourism is based on numerous and diverse, direct, indirect, occasional and permanent, relations of man, society and space, i.e. the environment in which it takes place. Tourism is a pronounced spatial phenomenon. It takes place on land and sea, on almost all continents and in all countries. Where it is organized on the purposeful valorisation of space, tradition and good organization, it is the basis for achieving satisfactory economic and social effects. That is why local, regional, state and world organizations pay special attention to it. By valorising space, tourism, achieving economic effects, contributes to the enrichment of the balance of payments of receptive regions and countries. Tourism can valorise some objects, phenomena and environmental processes, which are not interesting for other activities, which is important for expanding the field of business.
