The Lacustric Landscape - The Factor Of Tourism Potential In The Upper Basin Of Ialomi.A

The paper presents the results of a study that aimed at identifying the satisfaction of tourists in relation to the presence of the lacustric landscape in the Ialomita River's upper course. The researches, based on the field reality and the bibliographic sources, emphasize the importance of the lacustric landscape, in close interdependence with the natural mountain landscape of Bucegi and the anthropic, reservoir lakes, in the choice of these places by tourists. Beyond that, the satisfaction of tourists depends, according to the analysis of the data obtained from the research based on the questionnaire, on a complex set of factors reflecting the intellectual profile of the tourist and the type of chosen tourism (recreational, scientific, adventure tourism). At the same time, the negative aspects of these landscapes (e.g. the deterioration of vegetation communities close to aquatic areas) are highlighted in their involvement in the tourism process.
