Abstract: The study focuses on highlighting the current status of rural tourism and of the tendencies in its development in terms of some tourist indicators and the relationship between them and the tourist potential of the parishes, even from the disadvantaged areas. The inquiry of the statistics data and of the different situations at the level of county and parish / parishes, their analysis and interpretation outlines spaces of Romania characterized through emphasised dynamics or through a weakly developed one of tourism, probably also as a direct answer to the various actions of implementation of the documents connected with the policy of rural space at the level of counties or even within the same county. There are rural areas where entrepreneurship (farmers / owners of agroturist boarding houses) plays an important role in the development and diversification of tourist activities through cultural and economic convergence.
