Abstract

The case of Rosia Montana Mining Museum underlines the importance of promoting tourism in mining on a national basis, to ensure where possible those new employment opportunities are created in tourism in mining and that municipalities are aware of the possibilities for tourism in mining and that these are integrated into their tourism promotional activities. This paper emphasizes that our country’s tourism attractiveness lay in its diversity, including tourism in mining. It is important to perceive the opportunities for tourism related to mining and identify any possible linkages between the country’s major economic sector and the potential to use the mining industry as part of the expansion plans for the tourist sector. That’s the case of Rosia Montana Mining Museum.
