Abstract

Romania has registered a steady increase in tourist arrivals in the last decade, benefiting from the online promotion, national and international events, but especially from low prices compared to other international destinations. Thus, most of the foreign tourists consider Romania a cheap tourist destination. The study analyzes and maps the evolution of tourism density in the last decade in the most visited tourist destinations in Romania, according to National Institute of Statistics in Bucharest and tripadvisor 2018 traveler's choice (top 10), in order to identify the effects of tourism pressure and to propose a series of measures to limit the negative effects of "overtourism" that could affect Romania in the future. The research was achieved using the data provided by the National Institute of Statistics, as well as the information present in a series of studies and websites mentioned in the references.
