THE CORRELATION BETWEEN ALMAJULUI VALLEY WATER MILLS AND TOURISM DEVELOPMENT
Abstract
Valea Almajului started to be known as a tourist destination due to the water mills from Rudaria. Although the entire area is studded with water mills, only Rudaria managed to become a nationally known destination. The purpose of this article is to identify the correlations between the existence of water mills, tourism promotion, and the development of HoReCa businesses in the area. In the article the authors used the method of documentary analysis, structuring the information obtained from the bibliography at the end of the paper. Following the research, it was confirmed that the tourist development of the Valea Almajului area depends on the existence of water mills correlated with tourism promotion.
