Abstract: Abstract The attractiveness of a tourist destination sums up a combination of subjective factors (needs, opinions, expectations, impressions, personal experiences) and objective factors (the existence of natural and man-made tourist attractions, the range of tourist services) which influence the tourist’s option for leisure. Establishing the elements which determine the attractiveness of a tourist activity represents the constant interest of the involved parties (stakeholders) in carrying out tourist activities. This chapter proposes a study meant to illustrate the contribution of tourist destination management to the growth of tourism attractiveness in the case of the city of Oradea (Romania). The objectives of this research are establishing the factors which influence the tourist attractiveness for the studied tourist destination and analysing the role of the tourist destination management in the growth of the attractiveness of the city of Oradea. The research methodology consisted of data processing and analysis (from 2007 until November 2019) provided by the National Institute of Statistics from Romania regarding tourist movement in the city of Oradea. The selected quantitative indicators for measuring tourist attractiveness indicate the high degree of attractiveness of the city of Oradea as a result of the tourism development activities undertaken by the local authorities.
