Abstract: The concept of rural tourism has become important round the globe at present. It is thought that rural tourism can revitalise the conventional concepts and views on tourism, and bring in a new dimension in the sustainable development of tourism. It has been realised that society based tourism can play a fundamental role in poverty alleviation in countries like Romania In a sense the village landscape, wildlife, community and cultural life, natural heritage are key assets that attract visitors -- and visitor revenue. Tourism is about welcoming visitors to attractive and stimulating places where they would like to spend their leisure time. The countryside, market towns and villages have much to offer the visitors, and are major factors in generating trips from within the country and from over.
