EVENT TOURISM AND ITS IMPACT ON RURAL TOURISM DEVELOPMENT IN THE REPUBLIC OF MOLDOVA

Abstract

The 21st century is a time of high technology, hectic urban living, skyscrapers covering the skyline, perpetual motion and noise. All of this tires one out, and there is a growing need for a quiet and peaceful place, without the usual hustle and bustle, where one can feel relaxed. Rural tourism is a great way to meet these needs. Today, rural tourism is a fast-growing branch of tourism on account of the fad for environmentalism, care for nature and digital detox.
