THE TOURISTIC POTENTIAL OF WATER RESOURCES IN SUCEAVA DISTRICT

Andrei-Emil BRICIU, Dinu OPREA-GANCEVICI

Abstract


It was realised a map of the touristic potential of the water resources in Suceava District and various aspects of this potential are discussed. Rivers, lakes, swamps, springs and other forms of water which represents a touristic resource are detailed by functional domains; from these, the mineral springs and the presence of the snow are the most important elements of touristic potential that can generate touristic flows. The evolution, in the county, of the water resources-related tourism is assumed to be similar to that observed for other countries in Central-Eastern Europe.
