Există chiar sub ochii noștri posibilități generoase de recuperare a banilor deturnați ori neimpozitați de la stat. Da, banii, ăia acoperiți prin contracte de sponsorizare politică. Da, banii aceia care au alunecat cu viteză prin tubulatura comisioanelor la afaceri în care unii oameni politici îmbârligați cu businessmani, nu au participat nici măcar cu 1 euro.\n\nConform unor studii de piață în România sunt scoase la vânzare circa 100 de hoteluri. Statul român ar putea să cumpere vreo 2-3, cu capacități corespunzătoare de 150-200 de camere -, pe care să le renoveze și să le transforme în domicilii forțate. De 4 și 5 stele. Unul la mare, unul la munte și altul într-o stațiune balneară. Astfel închisorile sufocate de atâta înghesuială, și-ar reduce costurile cu mâncarea și întreținerea acestor deținuți de lux, care culmea ironiei, halesc tot din banii statului.\n![\"Traveller](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Traveller-Magazin-133.jpg\")
\n\nCe să facă statul cu aceste hoteluri??? Păi să le transforme, să le amenajeze ca variantă pentru arest și arest la domiciliu. Asa s-ar introduce un nou termen: arestul la hotel! Spații păzite, dar plătite zilnic sub formă de cazare și masă. Desigur, dacă unii deținuți vor dori, se vor putea înscrie și la varianta... all inclusive. Acționarii hotelurilor ar putea fi ANI și DNA-ul cu câte 50% fiecare. ANI ar acoperi serviciile de transport și travel iar DNA partea de ”operare” hotelieră. Pentru a se recupera mai cu ritm din sumele furate, prețul unei camere cu serviciile incluse ar putea varia, în funcție de confort, între 500 și 1500 de euro pe...zi. Astfel, după scăderea TVA-ului, a costurilor de întreținere și salariilor angajaților, ar putea să rămână curați vreo 300.000 de euro de deținut pe an. Dacă ar executa pedepse cuprinse între 2 și 10 ani de exemplu, statul ar putea introduce în circuitul curat bani fiscalizați extrași din mâlul unei lumi murdare dar plină de aroganță și tupeu. Ar fi ceva, nu?\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_2843\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"225\"]![\"Marian](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Marian-Constantinescu2014.jpg\")
Marian ConstantinescuCEO Traveller Magazin[/caption]\n\nDar ar apărea și alte efecte cu impact major! Ar crește gradul de ocupare în industria turistică. Cu un grad de 100% DNA și ANI ar deveni cele mai premiate companii de turism. Institutul Național de Statistică ar raporta în sfârșit o majorare substanțială a încasărilor din turism la bugetul de stat, iar contribuția turismului la PIB-ul românesc ar trece ușor de 5-6%. Unități de cazare ar fi în permanență pline, căci ele vor funcționa indiferent de sezoane și anotimpuri. Iar deținuții nu vor mai avea motive să se plângă cum că n-au condiții să-și scrie cărțile vieții lor.\n\nDesigur, nu se putea să nu apară și o întrebare timidă, din rândul publicului! Și dacă nu au săracii posibilitatea să plătească??? Ei, ați înțeles, omul a vrut să facă o glumiță!

(carciofo) organizat în România. El a fost patronat de către primăria oraşului italian Niscemi, considerat “Capitala anghinarei”. Mai puţin cunoscută în ţara noastră anghinarea, denumit popular şi Carduccio”, este un aliment cunoscut încă din antichitate de către egipteni dar şi de către greci care o foloseau şi pentru proprietăţile sale medicinale. Cultivarea acestei legume a început în regiunea Niscemi în jurul anilor 1850.\n\nGovanni Di Martino, primarul localităţi apreciază că o vizită în Italia nu trebuie să ocolească gastronomia locală care “impresionează prin diversele feluri de mâncare având la bază delicioasa anghinare şi prin bucătăria tradiţională (piruni, sccaciata, împănate în ulei de măsline extravirgin), toate acompaniate de vinuri albe şi roşii de foarte bună calitate învechite la poalele Etnei. Şi un tur al oraşului ar fi binevenit pentru că ar completa savoarea călătoriei turistice. Nu trebuie să ocoliţi bisericile în stil baroc, Muzeul Civilta Contadina (vieţii rurale), Rezervaţia Sughereta sau piaţa Victor Emanuel al III-lea, una dintre cele mai frumoase din Sicilia.”\n\n![\"\"](\"../../foto/84/poze/Restauratie1.jpg\")
Alături de toate acestea punem şi precizarea lui Gheorghe Răcaru – directorul de strategii şi dezvoltare a grupului Romstrade-Blue Air – care administrează printr-o firmă subsidiară lanţul de restaurante Self, conform căreia, “Blue Air, companie aeriană care acoperă mai multe destinaţii italiene, continuă să susţină asemenea evenimente, gastronomia ambelor ţări oferind perspective variate asupra actului turistic”.\n\nMaeştri ai gastronomiei italiene au oferit spre testat în timpul Festivalului, mai multe mâncăruri tradiţionale ce au la bază anghinarea, combinându-le cu ingrediente mediteraneene, pe gustul gurmanzilor. Am remarcat varietatea de legume şi fructe, produse în Sicilia dar şi la ferma “La Moşie” (roşii Cherry, ardei gras, vinete, castraveţi, dovlecei, portocale, clementine, pepene galben, mere şi condimente proaspete), calitatea brânzeturilor şi preparatelor din carne, parte din ele furnizate de producători autohtoni, interesaţi de promovare, respectiv de schimburile de valori culturale şi materiale. Una peste alta, seara a marcat un festin culinar, apreciat de cunoscători (excelentă anghinarea umplută), de care au fost alături reprezentanţi ai Ambasadei Italiei la Bucureşti, travel agenţi, proprietari de restaurante şi, fireşte, jurnalişti specializaţi în gastronomie, vinuri şi călătorii.\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','SELF: PRIMUL FESTIVAL GASTRONOMIC AL ANGHINAREI','','inherit','open','open','','279-revision','','','2011-05-24 11:31:31','2011-05-24 09:31:31','',279,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/05/24/279-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(281,1,'2011-05-24 11:33:54','2011-05-24 09:33:54','MAPAMOND NR.84 (MARTIE 2011) \r\n\r\nSAUSALITO – BIJUTERIA GOLFULUI\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"../../foto/84/poze/Mapamond-Sausalito-2.jpg\")
E celebru deşi e mic. Poate nu aţi auzit de el, dar asta este problema dumneavoastră. E un orăşel de buzunar, de lux, al cărui locuitori spun cu mult umor că celebrul Golden Gate, care-i leagă de San Francisco, a fost construit special pentru ca Sausalito să poate fi vizitat.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nEste un mic tezaur urban, istoric şi arhitectural. Sausalito a fost fondat în urmă cu aproape două sute de ani. Localnicii contemporani nu scapă ocazia să se mândrească cu Princess Street, principala „marcă” turistică. Bulevardul datează din 1860, şi reuneşte numeroase clădiri coloniale ori moderne, conservate şi impecabil întreţinute. Parcă sunt bibelouri pe care le şterge de praf în fiecare zi o mână foarte pricepută. Mâna ar fi... primăria, care-şi ştie rolul foarte bine, pentru că dacă arăţi bine, turiştii te caută şi te iubesc. Adică îşi cheltuiesc banii pentru a consuma poveştile tale, mai vechi sau mai noi. ![\"\"](\"../../foto/84/poze/Mapamond-Sausalito-3.jpg\")
Magazine cochete „Did and Dad”, galerii de artă sau celebra cofetărie „Lappert’s Ice Cream”, care oferă gratuit îngheţată tuturor celor care poartă uniformă militară, parcuri ce par desenate cu pensule de iarbă, statui cu elefanţi, mult soare şi oameni politicoşi.\r\n\r\nCase de 1 milion de dolari\r\n\r\nRestaurantele şi hotelurile se întrec în oferte. Nu poţi ramâne indiferent când ajungi la Gaylor’s sau la Poggio, aflat în incinta hotelului Madrona. Localul e vestit şi nu întâmplător gastronomia italienească pe care o promovează l-a propulsat în “Top 100 Bay Area Restaurants”. La Sausalito trebuie să vizitaţi neapărat “Marinaship”, o zonă rezidenţială faimoasă prin pitorescul ei. Casele se află pe docuri plutitoare. De prisos să vă spunem, o facem totuşi, că preţul unei locuinţe “rustice” în acest loc poate atinge şi milionul de dolari. Cât despre statuile cu elefanţi, ne-a lămurit rapid cum stau lucrurile pe parcursul unei discuţii cu doamna Carol Ann, reprezentanta oamenilor de afaceri din localitate. Elefantul încoronat este chiar emblema Camerei de Comerţ şi Industrie din Sausalito.\r\n\r\nPortrete din Valhalla\r\n\r\nUn lucru binevenit este o cafea băută la Northpoint, un local mic ce impune printr-o atmosferă de familie şi multă căldură. Sau pur şi simplu poţi să te aşezi pe o bancă în grădină şi să admiri apele golfului cu un ziar în mână, ori să-ţi scrii liniştit reportajul sau cartea pe un laptop. Şi asta să nu miră pe nimeni. Cum de asemenea nu poţi pleca din acest loc fără a te opri la Gaylord India Restaurant, găzduit de o clădire istorică denumită “Valhalla”. Azi are valoare de patrimoniu, fiind clasificată ca monument istoric. O parte din istorie e plină de… discreţie. În secolul trecut casa a adăpostit un celebru local de şantan, unde vizitatorii degustau din… plăcerile trupului. Ca o pată de culoare, pe unul din pereţii restaurantului se află pus la loc de cinste portretul “matroanei”, care veghează şi azi cu exigenţă, dar la… standardele culinare indiene.\r\n\r\nCe gust are succesul lui Kripalani\r\n\r\nPanorama oferită în faţa ferestrelor localului ne duce privirile spre golf, oraşul San Francisco dar şi spre Angel Island, aflată în apropiere. Gaylord este sinonim cu autenticitate, calitate şi inovaţie culinară. Are specific indian. Primul restaurant Gaylord din Statele Unite s-a deschis la… San Francisco în 1976 pe celebra Ghirardelli Square. A făcut istorie promovând în rândul clienţilor săi bucătăria şi specificul indial, în special Tandori. Gaylord a impus un standard ridicat, greu de egalat de alte restaurante cu acelaşi specific. Oraşe ca Las Vegas, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, Sacramento ori Londra au în oferta culinară meniuri celebre ale bucătarilor de la Gaylord. În viitor proprietarii se vor extinde în întreaga Americă şi Canada. Filosofia care stă la baza succesului ne este rezumată de către Kishore Kripalani, preşedintele şi fondatorul Gaylord India Restaurants în SUA: “Dacă vrei să te reţină memoria timpului trebuie să faci calitate.![\"\"](\"../../foto/84/poze/Mapamond-Sausalito-Krishore-Kripalani.jpg\")
Să promovezi standarde exclusive aşa cum au făcut cu primul lor restaurant, deschis în 1946 la New Dehli, Iqbal Ghai şi Peshori Lal Lamba doi întreprinzători curajoşi şi vizionari. De atunci a început promovarea bucătăriei nord-indiene, tandori şi mughlay, influenţată de stilul împăraţilor moghuli, care au dominat peste 200 de ani destinele Indiei. Meniurile includ miel, pui, peşte, fructe de mare, legume şi fructe, totul combinat cu cele mai fine condimente. Anul 2005 marchează mutarea restaurantului din San Francisco în Sausalito. Acesta capătă denumirea de Subal Gaylord nume ce a fost recompensat prin includerea în Michelin Guide din 2007, dar şi cu celebrul “Zagat Guide Restaurant of Excelence”. Printre numeroasele premii se numără şi “Best of Citysearch 2006”, decernat pentru inovaţiile aduse bucătăriei indiene”.\r\n\r\nKrishore Kripalani s-a dovedit un spirit rafinat şi ospitalieră. Este un bărbat parcă coborât din filmele cu Omar Shariff. Spune simplu că a venit în Statele Unite în 1969. Aici a absolvit Universitatea din San Francisco şi a urmat un MBA în marketing. În 1976 a înregistrat marca Gaylord India Restaurant în SUA. Şi astfel a pornit pe un drum ce s-a dovedit unul de succes. În acelaşi timp el devine şi director la prestigiosul California Institut of Integral Studies. Este fondatorul şi directorul Asociaţiei Bucătarilor din Asia, joacă rolul de consultant apropiat al School of Hospitality Management al San Francisco State University şi, în acelaşi timp, este director la Camera de Comerţ Indo-Americană şi la Camera de Comerţ din Sausalito.\r\nParcă cu asta şi începusem. Drum bun.\r\n\r\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU \r\n\r\n____________________________\r\nDACA E PRIMĂVARĂ E ... NEW YORK\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"../../foto/84/poze/Mapamond-New-York.jpg\")
Metropola americană a primit în 2010 să aibă aproape 49 milioane vizitatori! New York nu se mulţumeşte însă cu atât. În lunile de primăvară, pentru a impulsiona mişcarea turistică, specialiştii au lansat o nouă campanie de promovare. Elementele forte sunt: organizarea în premieră a săptămânii Broadway, programele NYC Restaurant Week şi Get More NYC.\r\nÎn cadrul săptămânii în Broadway se pot viziona 18 spectacole la ofertă specială: două persoane pe un bilet. NYC Restaurant Week reuneşte peste 300 de locaţii în care clienţii se bucură de meniuri cu preţuri fixe: 24 de dolari pentru meniu cu două feluri sau 35 de dolari pentru trei feluri, oferta fiind valabilă în zilele lucrătoare ale săptămânii. Campania de promovare e susţinută şi American Airlines cu tarife reduse, dar şi de către zeci de hoteluri care oferă o a treia noapte de cazare gratuită după achitarea a două nopţi consecutive.\r\nŢinta noii campanii este atingerea cifrei de 50 milioane vizitatori pe an, până în 2012! Publicitatea programelor este asigurată de personalităţi precum actorul Harvey Fierstein ori maestrul în arta culinară David Burke. Alţi parteneri ai campaniei sunt American Express, AT&T, Travelocity, Nickelodeon, Time Out New York ori Renaissance New York Hotel din Times Square.\r\n\r\n____________________\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"../../foto/84/poze/Mapamond-Budapesta.jpg\")
BUDAPESTA: INDUSTRIA OSPITALITĂŢII SE REGRUPEAZĂ\r\n\r\nO tranzacţie turistică în valoare de 180 de milioane de euro atrage agenţia asupra concentrării resurselor turistice din industria de profil din ţara vecină. Fuziunea unei părţi a diviziei turistice a companiei de dezvoltare imobiliară maghiară SCD Group cu al doilea cel mai mare lanţ hotelier din Ungaria, Hunguest Hotels, a condus la formarea celui mai mare grup naţional din industria ospitalităţi - a anunţat Gellert Jaszai, acţionarul majoritar şi preşedintele SCD Group. Noua companie se numeşte Magyar Turisztikai (MTH), şi va mai controla Balatontourist, cel mai mare furnizor de servicii turistice din zona Lacului Balaton, Aeroportul Fly Balaton, dar şi portofoliul imobiliar din regiune al SCD. Hunguest Hotels deţine în prezent 18 hoteluri în Ungaria şi 3 în alte ţări. În total acestea au înregistrat anual peste 1,5 milioane de nopti de cazare şi aproape 400.000 de vizitatori.\r\n\r\nJaszai a achiziţionat 33,3% din Hunguest Hotels de la compania Arago Holding printr-o tranzacţie de schimb de acţiuni. Noul holding poate avea ca opţiune sporirea participaţiei în cadrul Hunguest până la 99,6%.\r\n___________________________\r\nUN AMERICAN PROVOACĂ TURIŞTII INACTIVI\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"../../foto/84/poze/Mapamond-Munchen-1.jpg\")
Oraşul Munchen s-a săturat de turişti plictisiţi şi inactivi. O companie fondată acum mai bine de 15 ani, de către un american mutat în Germania, oferă tururi ale capitalei pe... bicicletă. Turiştii primesc vehiculul, hărţi, şi sunt însoţiţi de un ghid local. Mişcarea în aer liber dar şi posibilitatea de a pătrunde în zone mai greu accesibile cu maşina asigură deja succesul acestor programe. Mike’s Bike Tours a achiziţionat de curând şi vehicule cu două roţi tip Segway (inventate în 2001) care facilitează accesul în orice colţ al oraşului, inclusiv pe străzile mai înguste. În Europa tururi organizate cu bicicleta se mai fac la Amsterdam, iar cu Segway la Viena, Paris, Berlin şi Budapesta.\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON','SAUSALITO – BIJUTERIA GOLFULUI, MAPAMOND NR.84 (MARTIE 2011) ','','publish','open','open','','sausalito-%e2%80%93-bijuteria-golfului-mapamond-nr-84-martie-2011','','','2011-05-24 11:45:13','2011-05-24 09:45:13','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=281',0,'post','',0),(64,1,'2011-03-11 12:37:27','2011-03-11 10:37:27','EDITORIAL NR.81 (NOIEMBRIE - DECEMBRIE 2010)\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_43\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"261\" caption=\"Marian Constantinescu\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nDe când nu v-aţi mai uitat la stele ?\r\n\r\nCă tot se apropie sfârşitul de an, cu sau fără zăpadă.

[/caption]\r\n\r\nNICOLAE DEMETRIADE: „Poţi să faci mulţi bani. Dar e trist să nu ajungi la un echilibru şi să te bucuri de ceea ce ai realizat!”\r\n\r\nE un tip. Are 63 de ani. A absolvit în 1970 Facultatea de contabilitate şi finanţe a Academiei de Ştiinţe Economice din Bucureşti. A lucrat în domeniul aviaţiei, la început cea utilitară, pentru tratamente aviochimice şi ulterior, din 1982, la TAROM. Impune prin ţinută. Lucru rar în turismul autohton. Zâmbeşte la fel de rar. Atunci când se exprimă dă greutate cuvintelor şi ideilor. Îi plac lucrurile durabile şi se poziţionează atent faţă de ele. Dincolo de... armură, omul de afaceri e dublat de unul care simte şi trăieşte româneşte. A făcut-o cu succes pe vremea când lucra la stat, o face şi acum în aceeaşi măsură, în domeniul privat.\r\n\r\n- Domnule Demetriade, în urmă cu 3 ani, vânzarea companiei Happy Tour, pe care o conduceaţi, a reprezentat a doua mare tranzacţie în lumea agenţiilor de turism, după cea realizată de Danubius Travel din Constanţa, care a vândut pachetul majoritar către TUI. Spre deosebire de prima, Happy a fost vândută în întregime fondului de investiţii spaniol GED. Ce v-a determinat să luaţi o asemenea decizie?\r\n\r\n- Am vândut Happy Tour într-o perioada când afacerile mergeau foarte bine în România iar agenţia se afla de 7 ani pe primul loc, ca volum de afaceri şi profit.\r\nAm realizat însa că totul este ciclic, atât perioadele de boom economic cât şi crizele\r\nfiind obligatoriu să reduci expunerea la eventuale riscuri. La decizia de vânzare a contribuit mult şi dezvoltarea businessului care la o cifră de afaceri de 54.000.000 euro pe an, cerea o implicare totală din partea managmentului -adica eu şi soţia, Carmen Demetriade. În 1997 am început cu trei persoane, ca o afacere de familie. Şi cu ce ştiam să facem cel mai bine – ticketing. Faţă de cei care existau în piaţă şi au au început de la zero, noi aveam deja experienţă şi cunoştinţe consistente. Asta ne-a permis să începem activitatea de la un anumit nivel profesional. S-a dovedit că ideea a fost câştigătoare. Am atras parteneri serioşi şi oameni profesionalizaţi, în parte veniţi de la Tarom. După ticketing, răspunzând la cerinţele clientelei, am dezvoltat şi aranjamente de travel, pachete de vacanţă, business-travel etc. Principalul atu cu care ne-am poziţionat a fost seriozitatea şi dorinţa de a prezenta produse noi. După 10 ani, când am vândut Happy Tour, aveam 100 de angajaţi. Dar nu numărul lor era important, ci valoarea profesională şi umană. Numele companiei a fost ales aşa, pentru că sugera asocierea turismului cu bucuria de a călătorii.\r\nEu cred că întotdeauna trebui să ajungi la un echilibru în viaţă. Şi să nu uiţi că, pentru un timp, poţi să câştigi mulţi bani, dar e posibil ca uneori să nu şti când trebuie să te opreşti şi să nu te poţi bucura de ce ai realizat. Decizia nu a fost uşoară, dar când am hotârat să vindem firma, am făcut toate demersurile într-un ritm alert, fără consultanţi, fără avocaţi.\r\n\r\n- Sunteţi un foarte bun cunoscător al aviaţiei româneşti. O perioadă aţi fost directorul general al Tarom, companie de a cărei istorie recentă, vă leagă o parte din viaţă. Au fost mai multe runde de negocieri de-a lungul ultimului deceniu, pentru a stabili o colaborare puternică între travel agenţii români şi compania aviatică naţională! Ce credeţi că a câştigat sau a pierdut industria de travel într-o posibilă alianţă cu Tarom?\r\n\r\n- A fost o şansă foarte bună atât pentru Tarom cât şi pentru travel să realizăm o colaborare benefică pentru ambele părţi, având în vedere că puteam să îmbin experienţa din cele două domenii. Am avut discuţii serioase cu reprezentanţii\r\nANAT din perioada 2001-2002. Au fost chiar perspective de încheiere a unui acord.\r\nAr fi fost un câştig important dar anumite orgolii au făcut să nu realizam decât o parte din intenţii. TAROM cât şi ANAT au pierdut atunci o bună şansă de a relansa industria de travel şi de transport aerian. Dacă am fi finalizat parteneriatul am fi generat numeroase avantaje financiare pentru agenţiile de turism şi pentru transportator. Un singur exemplu: dacă ne-am fi asumat în comun responsabilitatea şi riscurile financiare pe segmentul organizării curselor charter, am fi reuşit să relansăm multe programe turistice şi, simultan, să creştem şi profitabilitatea Tarom.\r\n\r\n- În prima decadă a existenţei Asociaţiei Naţionale a Agenţiilor de Turism din România (ANAT) - organizaţie care a aniversat de curând 20 de ani de existenţă -, aţi fost o personalitate vizibilă în conducerea acesteia. După aceea v-aţi retras, optând pentru dezvoltarea business-ului în defavoarea activităţilor asociative. De ce aţi luat o asemenea decizie?\r\n\r\n- Când te afli în plutonul fruntaş, nu poţi rămâne indiferent la ce se întâmplă cu organizaţia. Am avut o perioada destul de activă în ANAT, implicat afectiv dar şi financiar. Am susţinut de unul singur, pentru o bună perioadă de timp, o emisiune de promovare a agenţiilor de turism pe un important post TV, la care eu am plătit iar alţii şi-au promovat propriul business. Am reuşit să obţin de la TAROM includerea taxei de emitere, în biletul de avion, rezolvând favorabil agenţiilor de turism păstrarea comisionului şi acest lucru a fost făcut în ciuda adversităţii unei bune părţi din ANAT, care nu înţelegea bine situaţia. Am încercat să creem în cadrul ANAT o structură asociativă, care să se ocupe doar de problemele agenţiilor IATA. Şi acest demers s-a înţeles greşit de cei din conducerea ANAT de la acea dată, motiv pentru care am hotărat că este mai prudent să mă ocup de afacerile agenţiei, decât să mă bat pentru cauze care nu erau înţelese.\r\n\r\n- Un om de afaceri din turism afirma: ”Nici un guvern nu a susţinut capitalul şi comunitatea investitorilor autohtoni. De aceea nici un guvern postdecembrist nu a cunoscut succesul!”. Care este opinia dumneavoastră vis-à-vis de această declaraţie?\r\n\r\n- Din păcate, turismul a fost în toţi aceşti ani, cenuşăreasa economiei româneşti, pentru că nu prezenta o problema socială. Guvernele au făcut investiţii serioase în tot felul de industrii falimentare, care au fost finanţate de la buget doar pentru a păstra o linişte socială, fiindcă industriile respective ulterior au dispărut. Turismul ar fi creat o bună şansă pentru România ca din orice dolar investit să obţină minimum 3 dolari venituri. “Ajutorul” acordat de guvern pentru investitorii autohtoni, a fost unul distructiv. A privatizat ONT Carpaţi – un brand naţional valoros cu importante active, cu un investitor din Cipru, pe un preţ infim. În timp ce toate firmele româneşti private, care au început de la zero, au plătit impozite serioase la stat, noii investitori, după ce au vândut toate activele, au funcţionat numai pe pierderi. Nu e un caz singular. Este trist că şi brandul ONT CARPAŢI a rămas la noul investitor.\r\n\r\n- Azi conduceţi firma de turism World Travel împreună cu soţia dumneavoastră Carmen Demetriade. Deţineţi în portofoliu mai multe branduri de colecţie de la cele de croaziere până la cele ale unor companii aviatice internaţionale. În ce măsură vă preocupă acum dezvoltarea unui compartiment de incoming şi vânzarea României ca destinaţie turistică?\r\n\r\n- Afirm cu mare regret că incomingul este doar o speranţă. Nu poţi atrage turişti străini fără să deţii o infrastructură corespunzătoare, fără un sistem de asistenţă sanitară la exigenţe europene. Se fac eforturi serioase de promovare externă dar atâta timp cât nu rezolvăm problema drumurilor, cât sistemul sanitar este în derivă incomingul rămâne un vis îndepărtat. Categoric trebuie să stabilim ce lucruri, ce destinaţii vrem să promovăm, dar mai ales ce poveşti avem în spatele lor. Americanii fac bani grozavi din vânzarea unor stânci ori locuri aflate în deşert în jurul cărora spun poveşti frumoase. Turiştii sunt încântaţi de ele. Noi avem locuri extraordinare dar nu avem nici infrastructură şi nici poveştile care să ne permită să facem bani din ele. Vedeţi, prima dată poţi minţii turistul dar dacă l-ai minţit acela nu mai calcă a doua oară prin România. Apoi, chiar dacă pare şocant, ţara noastră este extrem de riscantă pentru turişti. În cazul în care se întâmplă ceva nu ai unde să le acorzi asistenţa medicală necesară.\r\nÎn ceea ce priveşte brandurile de colecţie, trebuie să fiu la fel de sincer. Reprezentăm mai multe companii aviatice sau de croaziere în România, cele mai importante fiind Emirates şi Royal Caribbean. Nu suntem colecţionari de branduri decât în măsura în care este pot să se transforme în afaceri profitabile. Sigur, este şi o chestiune de imagine dar şi o investiţie de seriozitate a ambilor parteneri. Ca să reuşeşti să le reprezinţi şi să le promovezi trebuie multă competenţă şi răbdare. Iată că Emirates, după ani de zile, devine o afacere profitabilă stabilă, iar compania internaţională de croaziere se apropie şi ea de această linie. Da, a reprezenta o marcă străină poate deveni un business profitabil. Dar el nu devine automat profitabil. Sub acest aspect piaţa românească este încă generoasă în oportunităţi. World Travel derulează negocieri şi cu alte companii internaţionale de top.\r\n\r\n- În viziunea dumneavoastră poate fi turismul cartea noastră cîştigătoare, cu care ne putem impune şi individualiza în Uniunea Europeană ?\r\n\r\n- Şi România poate deveni o destinaţie turistică dar nu trebuie să uităm că am rămas mult în urma vecinilor noştri, cu care nu ne putem compara nici din punct de vedere al sezonalităţii. Cred că nici nu ar trebui să ne comparăm. N-avem cu ce să impresionăm prea mult. Decât cu Delta Dunării, cu Bucovina, cu Maramureşul, care însă se alterează rapid arhitectonic şi din punct de vedere al tradiţiilor. Avem însă şansa să arătăm lucruri naturale în Munţii Carpaţi. Dar ca să le vinzi trebuie să fi foarte aproape de turist, pentru a-l feri de tot felul de evenimente ce i-ar putea altera vacanţa. Să o spunem cu sinceritate - lumea reală din ţara noastră, destul de agresivă, nu avantajează prea mult destinaţiile pe care pe promovăm. Iată şi câţiva factori de risc: oferim lucruri care nu se dovedesc atractive pentru vizitatorii străini; dorinţa unor ofertanţi de servicii de a câştiga cât mai mult pe o unitate scurtă de timp; sezonalitatea turistică redusă – 2-3 luni pe an, atât pe segmentul litoral cât şi pe cel montan. Mai amplu ar putea fi valorificate turismul balnear şi rural. În fine, micii întreprinzători din turism, căci ei formează baza serviciilor nu sunt orientaţi cu faţa spre client. Ei nu au forţa de a se promova şi, ca atare nici puterea de a rezista o perioadă îndelungată fără turişti. Involuţia segmentelor de turism mentionate, era previzibilă. Fără turişti, fără facilităţi fiscale, cu un sezon de litoral şi montan extrem de scurte, nu poate nimeni să reziste mult timp în business, decât dacă face rabat la calitate. Apoi am ratat şi şansa de a privatiza industria hotelieră cu mari lanţuri hoteliere internaţionale, şi de a le atrage spre staţiunile existente, în cadrul unui parteneriat profitabil. De a ne vinde unor investitori străini reali, care ar fi generat performanţă şi profit. În toata lumea, turismul aduce şi alte business-uri şi profituri considerabile. Ca urmare va trebui ca şi România să facă din turism o prioritate naţională.\r\n\r\n- Se spune că România a devenit o ţară a proiectelor fără sfârşit! E acoperită această afirmaţie ?\r\n\r\n- Problema nu e că avem proiecte, ci că rămânem la stadiu de proiect. Ştiţi cum au reuşit să ajungă turcii o superputere turistică în mai bine de un deceniu. Au generat şi au construit sute de hoteluri în cadrul unei viziuni economice naţionale. Ele au fost susţinute de către stat. Sigur, facilităţile fiscale în turism ar fi benefice, dar ele nu se sudează, nu pot genera dezvoltare decât dacă există un proiect, un program naţional clar şi de perspectivă. Pe 15-20 de ani. Partea proastă a lucrurilor este că fiecare guvern, vine mereu la putere cu ceva “original” şi în materie de turism. Şi o luăm de la capăt. Deci nu avem predictibilitate. Reinventăm lumea la fiecare patru ani şi acest proces este extrem de costisitor. Cred că la asta făceaţi referinţă.\r\n\r\n- Deşi este un proiect mai vechi el nu s-a materializat nici azi. Credeţi că este posibilă în România, crearea unei alianţe de travel pentru a forma un touroperator puternic, capabil să se impună pe pieţele internaţionale. Sau acesta este un model depăşit!\r\n\r\n- În 2005, am sperat că pot să materializez un astfel de proiect. Am reuşit pentru prima oara – şi singura dată, să aduc la masa discuţiilor alte două agenţii de turism din rândul primelor 3 din România, în intenţia de a forma un consolidator de travel. Am infiinţat şi o firmă, CONSOLIDATOR TRAVEL, care trebuia să unească forţa de vânzare a celor trei, astfel încât să obţină parteneriate favorabile cu marii touroperatori globali şi companiile aeriene, ceea ce ar fi adus avantaje nu numai agenţiilor în cauză, dar şi turiştilor care ar fi beneficiat de preţuri mai atractive şi servicii superioare. Discuţiile au avansat, am participat toţi trei în comun la Târgul de Turism al României. Dar, din păcate, au fost şi orgolii şi invidie care au făcut ca acest important proiect să eşueze. Am înteles atunci că nu avem şansa de a ne unii în această industrie, de a avea puncte de vedere comune şi am\r\nînceput să mă gândesc la vânzarea firmei noastre.\r\n\r\n- Se vorbeşte mult despre piaţa muncii calificate, profesionalizate. Travelul este probabil cel mai dinamic prin schimbările ce apar în fiecare an la nivel tehnologic şi organizatoric. Suntem pregătiţi să facem faţă ritmului schimbărilor? Nu numai la nivel de top-management, fireşte!\r\n\r\n- Agenţiile de turism româneşti au parcurs într-o perioadă foarte scurtă, etape importante în dezvoltarea tehnologiei. Atât managementul cât şi travel agenţii au demonstrat că sunt bine pregătiţi şi au o capacitate formidabilă de adaptare la cerinţele pieţei. În ceea ce ne priveşte pot spune că, în 2007, Happy Tour avea o echipă capabilă să organizeze orice tip de eveniment. Aveam oameni bine pregătiţi, avem acces la tehnologie şi la touroperatorii internaţionali. Nu eram cu nimic mai prejos decât alte agenţii de turism din străinătate cu un istoric mult mai bogat. În general s-a trecut de la stadiul incipient, foarte rapid la cel modern, avansat. Aş mai dori doar să precizez că sunt partizanul unor competiţii reale. Nu mă interesează cea în care concurenţa scade preţurile până se apropie de faliment. S-au văzut cazuri. Asta nu e concurenţă. Adevărata competiţie se duce pe planul calităţii, unde câştigă cel mai serios, cel care a oferit cel mai bun raport între calitate şi preţ. Şi eu sunt convins că am dovedit acest lucru. Cu Happy Tour şi, acum, cu World Travel.\r\n\r\n- În tot mai multe ţări se vorbeşte despre necesitatea unui naţionalismul economic! Cât de viabil e acest concept în contextul economiei globalizate?\r\n\r\n- Cred că este o cauză pierdută, atât timp cât investitorii strategici deţin cele mai profitabile activităţi din ţară.\r\n\r\n- Unii confraţi de breaslă afirmă că turistul român este unul dintre cei mai dificili dn lume. E o exagerare?\r\n\r\n- Nu suntem mai dificili decât alţii. Poate doar mai exigenţi şi cred că este normal atâta timp cât fiecare turist se asteaptă să primească servicii de calitate.\r\n\r\n- Care vi se pare a fi cel mai important lucru în viaţă ?\r\n\r\n- Dacă eşti sănătos, este foarte important să fi serios în tot ce faci. Aşa vei putea reuşi în viaţă.\r\n\r\n- Dacă ar fi să stabiliţi un top al preferinţelor care ar fi primele destinaţii, oraşe, zone din România?\r\n\r\n- Bucovina şi Delta Dunării sunt două zone extraordinare.\r\n\r\n- Dar în lume. Ce locuri de călătorie preferaţi. Şi de ce!\r\n\r\n- Preferinţele sunt generate de percepţii şi amintiri. Dubaiul -unde am trăit şi muncit zece ani, mi-a oferit momente de neuitat, St. Petersburg -pentru bogăţia patrimoniului arhitectural, Zona Caraibbelor – pentru peisajul marin şi viaţa plină de optimism.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Interviu Nicolae Demetriade','','publish','open','open','','interviu-nicolae-demetriade','','','2011-03-15 22:54:01','2011-03-15 20:54:01','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=69',0,'post','',2),(70,1,'2011-03-11 12:40:45','2011-03-11 10:40:45','NICOLAE DEMETRIADE: „Poţi să faci mulţi bani. Dar e trist să nu ajungi la un echilibru şi să te bucuri de ceea ce ai realizat!”\n\nE un tip. Are 63 de ani. A absolvit în 1970 Facultatea de contabilitate şi finanţe a Academiei de Ştiinţe Economice din Bucureşti. A lucrat în domeniul aviaţiei, la început cea utilitară, pentru tratamente aviochimice şi ulterior, din 1982, la TAROM. Impune prin ţinută. Lucru rar în turismul autohton. Zâmbeşte la fel de rar. Atunci când se exprimă dă greutate cuvintelor şi ideilor. Îi plac lucrurile durabile şi se poziţionează atent faţă de ele. Dincolo de... armură, omul de afaceri e dublat de unul care simte şi trăieşte româneşte. A făcut-o cu succes pe vremea când lucra la stat, o face şi acum în aceeaşi măsură, în domeniul privat.\n\n- Domnule Demetriade, în urmă cu 3 ani, vânzarea companiei Happy Tour, pe care o conduceaţi, a reprezentat a doua mare tranzacţie în lumea agenţiilor de turism, după cea realizată de Danubius Travel din Constanţa, care a vândut pachetul majoritar către TUI. Spre deosebire de prima, Happy a fost vândută în întregime fondului de investiţii spaniol GED. Ce v-a determinat să luaţi o asemenea decizie?\n\n- Am vândut Happy Tour într-o perioada când afacerile mergeau foarte bine în România iar agenţia se afla de 7 ani pe primul loc, ca volum de afaceri şi profit.\nAm realizat însa că totul este ciclic, atât perioadele de boom economic cât şi crizele\nfiind obligatoriu să reduci expunerea la eventuale riscuri. La decizia de vânzare a contribuit mult şi dezvoltarea businessului care la o cifră de afaceri de 54.000.000 euro pe an, cerea o implicare totală din partea managmentului -adica eu şi soţia, Carmen Demetriade. În 1997 am început cu trei persoane, ca o afacere de familie. Şi cu ce ştiam să facem cel mai bine – ticketing. Faţă de cei care existau în piaţă şi au au început de la zero, noi aveam deja experienţă şi cunoştinţe consistente. Asta ne-a permis să începem activitatea de la un anumit nivel profesional. S-a dovedit că ideea a fost câştigătoare. Am atras parteneri serioşi şi oameni profesionalizaţi, în parte veniţi de la Tarom. După ticketing, răspunzând la cerinţele clientelei, am dezvoltat şi aranjamente de travel, pachete de vacanţă, business-travel etc. Principalul atu cu care ne-am poziţionat a fost seriozitatea şi dorinţa de a prezenta produse noi. După 10 ani, când am vândut Happy Tour, aveam 100 de angajaţi. Dar nu numărul lor era important, ci valoarea profesională şi umană. Numele companiei a fost ales aşa, pentru că sugera asocierea turismului cu bucuria de a călătorii.\nEu cred că întotdeauna trebui să ajungi la un echilibru în viaţă. Şi să nu uiţi că, pentru un timp, poţi să câştigi mulţi bani, dar e posibil ca uneori să nu şti când trebuie să te opreşti şi să nu te poţi bucura de ce ai realizat. Decizia nu a fost uşoară, dar când am hotârat să vindem firma, am făcut toate demersurile într-un ritm alert, fără consultanţi, fără avocaţi.\n\n\n- Sunteţi un foarte bun cunoscător al aviaţiei româneşti. O perioadă aţi fost directorul general al Tarom, companie de a cărei istorie recentă, vă leagă o parte din viaţă. Au fost mai multe runde de negocieri de-a lungul ultimului deceniu, pentru a stabili o colaborare puternică între travel agenţii români şi compania aviatică naţională! Ce credeţi că a câştigat sau a pierdut industria de travel într-o posibilă alianţă cu Tarom?\n\n- A fost o şansă foarte bună atât pentru Tarom cât şi pentru travel să realizăm o colaborare benefică pentru ambele părţi, având în vedere că puteam să îmbin experienţa din cele două domenii. Am avut discuţii serioase cu reprezentanţii\nANAT din perioada 2001-2002. Au fost chiar perspective de încheiere a unui acord.\nAr fi fost un câştig important dar anumite orgolii au făcut să nu realizam decât o parte din intenţii. TAROM cât şi ANAT au pierdut atunci o bună şansă de a relansa industria de travel şi de transport aerian. Dacă am fi finalizat parteneriatul am fi generat numeroase avantaje financiare pentru agenţiile de turism şi pentru transportator. Un singur exemplu: dacă ne-am fi asumat în comun responsabilitatea şi riscurile financiare pe segmentul organizării curselor charter, am fi reuşit să relansăm multe programe turistice şi, simultan, să creştem şi profitabilitatea Tarom.\n\n- În prima decadă a existenţei Asociaţiei Naţionale a Agenţiilor de Turism din România (ANAT) - organizaţie care a aniversat de curând 20 de ani de existenţă -, aţi fost o personalitate vizibilă în conducerea acesteia. După aceea v-aţi retras, optând pentru dezvoltarea business-ului în defavoarea activităţilor asociative. De ce aţi luat o asemenea decizie?\n\n- Când te afli în plutonul fruntaş, nu poţi rămâne indiferent la ce se întâmplă cu organizaţia. Am avut o perioada destul de activă în ANAT, implicat afectiv dar şi financiar. Am susţinut de unul singur, pentru o bună perioadă de timp, o emisiune de promovare a agenţiilor de turism pe un important post TV, la care eu am plătit iar alţii şi-au promovat propriul business. Am reuşit să obţin de la TAROM includerea taxei de emitere, în biletul de avion, rezolvând favorabil agenţiilor de turism păstrarea comisionului şi acest lucru a fost făcut în ciuda adversităţii unei bune părţi din ANAT, care nu înţelegea bine situaţia. Am încercat să creem în cadrul ANAT o structură asociativă, care să se ocupe doar de problemele agenţiilor IATA. Şi acest demers s-a înţeles greşit de cei din conducerea ANAT de la acea dată, motiv pentru care am hotărat că este mai prudent să mă ocup de afacerile agenţiei, decât să mă bat pentru cauze care nu erau înţelese.\n\n- Un om de afaceri din turism afirma: ”Nici un guvern nu a susţinut capitalul şi comunitatea investitorilor autohtoni. De aceea nici un guvern postdecembrist nu a cunoscut succesul!”. Care este opinia dumneavoastră vis-à-vis de această declaraţie?\n\n\n- Din păcate, turismul a fost în toţi aceşti ani, cenuşăreasa economiei româneşti, pentru că nu prezenta o problema socială. Guvernele au făcut investiţii serioase în tot felul de industrii falimentare, care au fost finanţate de la buget doar pentru a păstra o linişte socială, fiindcă industriile respective ulterior au dispărut. Turismul ar fi creat o bună şansă pentru România ca din orice dolar investit să obţină minimum 3 dolari venituri. “Ajutorul” acordat de guvern pentru investitorii autohtoni, a fost unul distructiv. A privatizat ONT Carpaţi – un brand naţional valoros cu importante active, cu un investitor din Cipru, pe un preţ infim. În timp ce toate firmele româneşti private, care au început de la zero, au plătit impozite serioase la stat, noii investitori, după ce au vândut toate activele, au funcţionat numai pe pierderi. Nu e un caz singular. Este trist că şi brandul ONT CARPAŢI a rămas la noul investitor.\n\n- Azi conduceţi firma de turism World Travel împreună cu soţia dumneavoastră Carmen Demetriade. Deţineţi în portofoliu mai multe branduri de colecţie de la cele de croaziere până la cele ale unor companii aviatice internaţionale. În ce măsură vă preocupă acum dezvoltarea unui compartiment de incoming şi vânzarea României ca destinaţie turistică?\n\n- Afirm cu mare regret că incomingul este doar o speranţă. Nu poţi atrage turişti străini fără să deţii o infrastructură corespunzătoare, fără un sistem de asistenţă sanitară la exigenţe europene. Se fac eforturi serioase de promovare externă dar atâta timp cât nu rezolvăm problema drumurilor, cât sistemul sanitar este în derivă incomingul rămâne un vis îndepărtat. Categoric trebuie să stabilim ce lucruri, ce destinaţii vrem să promovăm, dar mai ales ce poveşti avem în spatele lor. Americanii fac bani grozavi din vânzarea unor stânci ori locuri aflate în deşert în jurul cărora spun poveşti frumoase. Turiştii sunt încântaţi de ele. Noi avem locuri extraordinare dar nu avem nici infrastructură şi nici poveştile care să ne permită să facem bani din ele. Vedeţi, prima dată poţi minţii turistul dar dacă l-ai minţit acela nu mai calcă a doua oară prin România. Apoi, chiar dacă pare şocant, ţara noastră este extrem de riscantă pentru turişti. În cazul în care se întâmplă ceva nu ai unde să le acorzi asistenţa medicală necesară.\nÎn ceea ce priveşte brandurile de colecţie, trebuie să fiu la fel de sincer. Reprezentăm mai multe companii aviatice sau de croaziere în România, cele mai importante fiind Emirates şi Royal Caribbean. Nu suntem colecţionari de branduri decât în măsura în care este pot să se transforme în afaceri profitabile. Sigur, este şi o chestiune de imagine dar şi o investiţie de seriozitate a ambilor parteneri. Ca să reuşeşti să le reprezinţi şi să le promovezi trebuie multă competenţă şi răbdare. Iată că Emirates, după ani de zile, devine o afacere profitabilă stabilă, iar compania internaţională de croaziere se apropie şi ea de această linie. Da, a reprezenta o marcă străină poate deveni un business profitabil. Dar el nu devine automat profitabil. Sub acest aspect piaţa românească este încă generoasă în oportunităţi. World Travel derulează negocieri şi cu alte companii internaţionale de top.\n\n- În viziunea dumneavoastră poate fi turismul cartea noastră cîştigătoare, cu care ne putem impune şi individualiza în Uniunea Europeană ?\n\n- Şi România poate deveni o destinaţie turistică dar nu trebuie să uităm că am rămas mult în urma vecinilor noştri, cu care nu ne putem compara nici din punct de vedere al sezonalităţii. Cred că nici nu ar trebui să ne comparăm. N-avem cu ce să impresionăm prea mult. Decât cu Delta Dunării, cu Bucovina, cu Maramureşul, care însă se alterează rapid arhitectonic şi din punct de vedere al tradiţiilor. Avem însă şansa să arătăm lucruri naturale în Munţii Carpaţi. Dar ca să le vinzi trebuie să fi foarte aproape de turist, pentru a-l feri de tot felul de evenimente ce i-ar putea altera vacanţa. Să o spunem cu sinceritate - lumea reală din ţara noastră, destul de agresivă, nu avantajează prea mult destinaţiile pe care pe promovăm. Iată şi câţiva factori de risc: oferim lucruri care nu se dovedesc atractive pentru vizitatorii străini; dorinţa unor ofertanţi de servicii de a câştiga cât mai mult pe o unitate scurtă de timp; sezonalitatea turistică redusă – 2-3 luni pe an, atât pe segmentul litoral cât şi pe cel montan. Mai amplu ar putea fi valorificate turismul balnear şi rural. În fine, micii întreprinzători din turism, căci ei formează baza serviciilor nu sunt orientaţi cu faţa spre client. Ei nu au forţa de a se promova şi, ca atare nici puterea de a rezista o perioadă îndelungată fără turişti. Involuţia segmentelor de turism mentionate, era previzibilă. Fără turişti, fără facilităţi fiscale, cu un sezon de litoral şi montan extrem de scurte, nu poate nimeni să reziste mult timp în business, decât dacă face rabat la calitate. Apoi am ratat şi şansa de a privatiza industria hotelieră cu mari lanţuri hoteliere internaţionale, şi de a le atrage spre staţiunile existente, în cadrul unui parteneriat profitabil. De a ne vinde unor investitori străini reali, care ar fi generat performanţă şi profit. În toata lumea, turismul aduce şi alte business-uri şi profituri considerabile. Ca urmare va trebui ca şi România să facă din turism o prioritate naţională.\n\n- Se spune că România a devenit o ţară a proiectelor fără sfârşit! E acoperită această afirmaţie ?\n\n- Problema nu e că avem proiecte, ci că rămânem la stadiu de proiect. Ştiţi cum au reuşit să ajungă turcii o superputere turistică în mai bine de un deceniu. Au generat şi au construit sute de hoteluri în cadrul unei viziuni economice naţionale. Ele au fost susţinute de către stat. Sigur, facilităţile fiscale în turism ar fi benefice, dar ele nu se sudează, nu pot genera dezvoltare decât dacă există un proiect, un program naţional clar şi de perspectivă. Pe 15-20 de ani. Partea proastă a lucrurilor este că fiecare guvern, vine mereu la putere cu ceva “original” şi în materie de turism. Şi o luăm de la capăt. Deci nu avem predictibilitate. Reinventăm lumea la fiecare patru ani şi acest proces este extrem de costisitor. Cred că la asta făceaţi referinţă.\n\n- Deşi este un proiect mai vechi el nu s-a materializat nici azi.

A privatizat ONT Carpaţi – un brand naţional valoros cu importante active, cu un investitor din Cipru, pe un preţ infim. În timp ce toate firmele româneşti private, care au început de la zero, au plătit impozite serioase la stat, noii investitori, după ce au vândut toate activele, au funcţionat numai pe pierderi. Nu e un caz singular. Este trist că şi brandul ONT CARPAŢI a rămas la noul investitor.\n\n- Azi conduceţi firma de turism World Travel împreună cu soţia dumneavoastră Carmen Demetriade. Deţineţi în portofoliu mai multe branduri de colecţie de la cele de croaziere până la cele ale unor companii aviatice internaţionale. În ce măsură vă preocupă acum dezvoltarea unui compartiment de incoming şi vânzarea României ca destinaţie turistică?\n\n- Afirm cu mare regret că incomingul este doar o speranţă. Nu poţi atrage turişti străini fără să deţii o infrastructură corespunzătoare, fără un sistem de asistenţă sanitară la exigenţe europene. Se fac eforturi serioase de promovare externă dar atâta timp cât nu rezolvăm problema drumurilor, cât sistemul sanitar este în derivă incomingul rămâne un vis îndepărtat. Categoric trebuie să stabilim ce lucruri, ce destinaţii vrem să promovăm, dar mai ales ce poveşti avem în spatele lor. Americanii fac bani grozavi din vânzarea unor stânci ori locuri aflate în deşert în jurul cărora spun poveşti frumoase. Turiştii sunt încântaţi de ele. Noi avem locuri extraordinare dar nu avem nici infrastructură şi nici poveştile care să ne permită să facem bani din ele. Vedeţi, prima dată poţi minţii turistul dar dacă l-ai minţit acela nu mai calcă a doua oară prin România. Apoi, chiar dacă pare şocant, ţara noastră este extrem de riscantă pentru turişti. În cazul în care se întâmplă ceva nu ai unde să le acorzi asistenţa medicală necesară.\nÎn ceea ce priveşte brandurile de colecţie, trebuie să fiu la fel de sincer. Reprezentăm mai multe companii aviatice sau de croaziere în România, cele mai importante fiind Emirates şi Royal Caribbean. Nu suntem colecţionari de branduri decât în măsura în care este pot să se transforme în afaceri profitabile. Sigur, este şi o chestiune de imagine dar şi o investiţie de seriozitate a ambilor parteneri. Ca să reuşeşti să le reprezinţi şi să le promovezi trebuie multă competenţă şi răbdare. Iată că Emirates, după ani de zile, devine o afacere profitabilă stabilă, iar compania internaţională de croaziere se apropie şi ea de această linie. Da, a reprezenta o marcă străină poate deveni un business profitabil. Dar el nu devine automat profitabil. Sub acest aspect piaţa românească este încă generoasă în oportunităţi. World Travel derulează negocieri şi cu alte companii internaţionale de top.\n\n- În viziunea dumneavoastră poate fi turismul cartea noastră cîştigătoare, cu care ne putem impune şi individualiza în Uniunea Europeană ?\n\n- Şi România poate deveni o destinaţie turistică dar nu trebuie să uităm că am rămas mult în urma vecinilor noştri, cu care nu ne putem compara nici din punct de vedere al sezonalităţii. Cred că nici nu ar trebui să ne comparăm. N-avem cu ce să impresionăm prea mult. Decât cu Delta Dunării, cu Bucovina, cu Maramureşul, care însă se alterează rapid arhitectonic şi din punct de vedere al tradiţiilor. Avem însă şansa să arătăm lucruri naturale în Munţii Carpaţi. Dar ca să le vinzi trebuie să fi foarte aproape de turist, pentru a-l feri de tot felul de evenimente ce i-ar putea altera vacanţa. Să o spunem cu sinceritate - lumea reală din ţara noastră, destul de agresivă, nu avantajează prea mult destinaţiile pe care pe promovăm. Iată şi câţiva factori de risc: oferim lucruri care nu se dovedesc atractive pentru vizitatorii străini; dorinţa unor ofertanţi de servicii de a câştiga cât mai mult pe o unitate scurtă de timp; sezonalitatea turistică redusă – 2-3 luni pe an, atât pe segmentul litoral cât şi pe cel montan. Mai amplu ar putea fi valorificate turismul balnear şi rural. În fine, micii întreprinzători din turism, căci ei formează baza serviciilor nu sunt orientaţi cu faţa spre client. Ei nu au forţa de a se promova şi, ca atare nici puterea de a rezista o perioadă îndelungată fără turişti. Involuţia segmentelor de turism mentionate, era previzibilă. Fără turişti, fără facilităţi fiscale, cu un sezon de litoral şi montan extrem de scurte, nu poate nimeni să reziste mult timp în business, decât dacă face rabat la calitate. Apoi am ratat şi şansa de a privatiza industria hotelieră cu mari lanţuri hoteliere internaţionale, şi de a le atrage spre staţiunile existente, în cadrul unui parteneriat profitabil. De a ne vinde unor investitori străini reali, care ar fi generat performanţă şi profit. În toata lumea, turismul aduce şi alte business-uri şi profituri considerabile. Ca urmare va trebui ca şi România să facă din turism o prioritate naţională.\n\n- Se spune că România a devenit o ţară a proiectelor fără sfârşit! E acoperită această afirmaţie ?\n\n- Problema nu e că avem proiecte, ci că rămânem la stadiu de proiect. Ştiţi cum au reuşit să ajungă turcii o superputere turistică în mai bine de un deceniu. Au generat şi au construit sute de hoteluri în cadrul unei viziuni economice naţionale. Ele au fost susţinute de către stat. Sigur, facilităţile fiscale în turism ar fi benefice, dar ele nu se sudează, nu pot genera dezvoltare decât dacă există un proiect, un program naţional clar şi de perspectivă. Pe 15-20 de ani. Partea proastă a lucrurilor este că fiecare guvern, vine mereu la putere cu ceva “original” şi în materie de turism. Şi o luăm de la capăt. Deci nu avem predictibilitate. Reinventăm lumea la fiecare patru ani şi acest proces este extrem de costisitor. Cred că la asta făceaţi referinţă.\n\n- Deşi este un proiect mai vechi el nu s-a materializat nici azi. Credeţi că este posibilă în România, crearea unei alianţe de travel pentru a forma un touroperator puternic, capabil să se impună pe pieţele internaţionale. Sau acesta este un model depăşit!\n\n- În 2005, am sperat că pot să materializez un astfel de proiect. Am reuşit pentru prima oara – şi singura dată, să aduc la masa discuţiilor alte două agenţii de turism din rândul primelor 3 din România, în intenţia de a forma un consolidator de travel. Am infiinţat şi o firmă, CONSOLIDATOR TRAVEL, care trebuia să unească forţa de vânzare a celor trei, astfel încât să obţină parteneriate favorabile cu marii touroperatori globali şi companiile aeriene, ceea ce ar fi adus avantaje nu numai agenţiilor în cauză, dar şi turiştilor care ar fi beneficiat de preţuri mai atractive şi servicii superioare. Discuţiile au avansat, am participat toţi trei în comun la Târgul de Turism al României. Dar, din păcate, au fost şi orgolii şi invidie care au făcut ca acest important proiect să eşueze. Am înteles atunci că nu avem şansa de a ne unii în această industrie, de a avea puncte de vedere comune şi am\nînceput să mă gândesc la vânzarea firmei noastre.\n\n- Se vorbeşte mult despre piaţa muncii calificate, profesionalizate. Travelul este probabil cel mai dinamic prin schimbările ce apar în fiecare an la nivel tehnologic şi organizatoric. Suntem pregătiţi să facem faţă ritmului schimbărilor? Nu numai la nivel de top-management, fireşte!\n\n- Agenţiile de turism româneşti au parcurs într-o perioadă foarte scurtă, etape importante în dezvoltarea tehnologiei. Atât managementul cât şi travel agenţii au demonstrat că sunt bine pregătiţi şi au o capacitate formidabilă de adaptare la cerinţele pieţei. În ceea ce ne priveşte pot spune că, în 2007, Happy Tour avea o echipă capabilă să organizeze orice tip de eveniment. Aveam oameni bine pregătiţi, avem acces la tehnologie şi la touroperatorii internaţionali. Nu eram cu nimic mai prejos decât alte agenţii de turism din străinătate cu un istoric mult mai bogat. În general s-a trecut de la stadiul incipient, foarte rapid la cel modern, avansat. Aş mai dori doar să precizez că sunt partizanul unor competiţii reale. Nu mă interesează cea în care concurenţa scade preţurile până se apropie de faliment. S-au văzut cazuri. Asta nu e concurenţă. Adevărata competiţie se duce pe planul calităţii, unde câştigă cel mai serios, cel care a oferit cel mai bun raport între calitate şi preţ. Şi eu sunt convins că am dovedit acest lucru. Cu Happy Tour şi, acum, cu World Travel.\n\n- În tot mai multe ţări se vorbeşte despre necesitatea unui naţionalismul economic! Cât de viabil e acest concept în contextul economiei globalizate?\n\n- Cred că este o cauză pierdută, atât timp cât investitorii strategici deţin cele mai profitabile activităţi din ţară.\n\n- Unii confraţi de breaslă afirmă că turistul român este unul dintre cei mai dificili dn lume. E o exagerare?\n\n- Nu suntem mai dificili decât alţii. Poate doar mai exigenţi şi cred că este normal atâta timp cât fiecare turist se asteaptă să primească servicii de calitate.\n\n- Care vi se pare a fi cel mai important lucru în viaţă ?\n\n- Dacă eşti sănătos, este foarte important să fi serios în tot ce faci. Aşa vei putea reuşi în viaţă.\n\n- Dacă ar fi să stabiliţi un top al preferinţelor care ar fi primele destinaţii, oraşe, zone din România?\n\n- Bucovina şi Delta Dunării sunt două zone extraordinare.\n\n- Dar în lume. Ce locuri de călătorie preferaţi. Şi de ce!\n\n- Preferinţele sunt generate de percepţii şi amintiri. Dubaiul -unde am trăit şi muncit zece ani, mi-a oferit momente de neuitat, St. Petersburg -pentru bogăţia patrimoniului arhitectural, Zona Caraibbelor – pentru peisajul marin şi viaţa plină de optimism.\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Interviu Nicolae Demetriade','','inherit','open','open','','69-autosave','','','2011-03-15 22:53:47','2011-03-15 20:53:47','',69,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/11/69-autosave/',0,'revision','',0),(72,1,'2011-03-11 12:46:37','2011-03-11 10:46:37','[caption id=\"attachment_23\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"213\" caption=\"Cine lasa usile deschise in turism!\"]![\"Cine](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/cine_lasa_usile_deschise_turism1.jpg\" "\\"Cine")

Toate vin la timpul lor ca şi întrebarea mea. De când nu v-aţi mai uitat la stele? Ce are asta cu turismul? Ştiu, unii dintre dumneavoatră au călătorit mai puţin în acest an. Alţii au făcut sacrificii până au strâns bani pentru o vacanţă cu buget moderat. Cu toate acestea eu cred că atitudinea turistului român s-a limpezit şi a crescut în demnitate şi verticalitate. E o observaţie. Mă încântă să constat că numeroşi români ştiu la detaliu ce vor de la o călătorie. Şi să cântărească un produs de mai multe ori până să-l cumpere. S-au tras ţepe de notorietate în acest an. Şi, în majoritatea cazurilor, vina a fost deplasată spre agenţiile de turism. Adevărul e undeva pe la mijloc, pentru că şi turiştii s-au calicit să cumpere ceva foarte ieftin. Ieftin au vrut, ieftin au avut. Au vrut chilipiruri de vacanţă. Sună frumos, dar e păgubos. Ca orice comerciant travel agenţi autohtoni au speculat aceste dorinţe. Aşa se întâmplă şi în lume. Vinovat nu e cel care vinde, fraier e cel care cumpără fiind aburit de un preţ mai mic cu 50-100 de euro. Bref, recomand călătorilor autohtoni să cumpere pachete de calitate, chiar dacă ele sunt sensibil mai scumpe.\r\n\r\nCa o paranteză. Am parcurs în aceste zile un studiu realizat de institutele naţionale de statistică din Europa de Est. Potrivit analizei angajaţii din turismul românesc, din hoteluri şi restaurante, au primit, de ce nu mă miră?, în luna septembrie cele mai mici salarii nete din estul Europei – echivalentul a 180 de euro. Informaţia ar fi una banală, pe plan intern, dacă nu am avea termeni de comparaţie. Bulgarii au ridicat 215 euro, în Ungaria salariul similar a fost de 470, iar în Polonia de aproximativ 600 de euro. Şocant nu?\r\n\r\nCu toate acestea există motive de optimism, chiar dacă aţi putea crede că am luat-o razna. România creşte turistic pe plan intern. Mulţi dintre dumneavoastră nu au descoperit încă noile atracţii, complexe hoteliere şi servicii. Dar acest lucru se va întâmpla cu siguranţă atunci când curiozitate va fi dublată şi de o putere de cumpărare mai mare. Deci merită să ne ridicăm capul şi să privim la stele. La cele de pe cer sau din bradul împodobit de sărbătoare. Şi pentru noi este o sărbătoare că ne citiţi, lună de lună, de aproape 15 ani. Povestea merge mai departe. Lumină înaltă în case şi suflete!

Dar e trist să nu ajungi la un echilibru şi să te bucuri de ceea ce ai realizat!”\r\n\r\nE un tip. Are 63 de ani. A absolvit în 1970 Facultatea de contabilitate şi finanţe a Academiei de Ştiinţe Economice din Bucureşti. A lucrat în domeniul aviaţiei, la început cea utilitară, pentru tratamente aviochimice şi ulterior, din 1982, la TAROM. Impune prin ţinută. Lucru rar în turismul autohton. Zâmbeşte la fel de rar. Atunci când se exprimă dă greutate cuvintelor şi ideilor. Îi plac lucrurile durabile şi se poziţionează atent faţă de ele. Dincolo de... armură, omul de afaceri e dublat de unul care simte şi trăieşte româneşte. A făcut-o cu succes pe vremea când lucra la stat, o face şi acum în aceeaşi măsură, în domeniul privat.\r\n\r\n- Domnule Demetriade, în urmă cu 3 ani, vânzarea companiei Happy Tour, pe care o conduceaţi, a reprezentat a doua mare tranzacţie în lumea agenţiilor de turism, după cea realizată de Danubius Travel din Constanţa, care a vândut pachetul majoritar către TUI. Spre deosebire de prima, Happy a fost vândută în întregime fondului de investiţii spaniol GED. Ce v-a determinat să luaţi o asemenea decizie?\r\n\r\n- Am vândut Happy Tour într-o perioada când afacerile mergeau foarte bine în România iar agenţia se afla de 7 ani pe primul loc, ca volum de afaceri şi profit.\r\nAm realizat însa că totul este ciclic, atât perioadele de boom economic cât şi crizele\r\nfiind obligatoriu să reduci expunerea la eventuale riscuri. La decizia de vânzare a contribuit mult şi dezvoltarea businessului care la o cifră de afaceri de 54.000.000 euro pe an, cerea o implicare totală din partea managmentului -adica eu şi soţia, Carmen Demetriade. În 1997 am început cu trei persoane, ca o afacere de familie. Şi cu ce ştiam să facem cel mai bine – ticketing. Faţă de cei care existau în piaţă şi au au început de la zero, noi aveam deja experienţă şi cunoştinţe consistente. Asta ne-a permis să începem activitatea de la un anumit nivel profesional. S-a dovedit că ideea a fost câştigătoare. Am atras parteneri serioşi şi oameni profesionalizaţi, în parte veniţi de la Tarom. După ticketing, răspunzând la cerinţele clientelei, am dezvoltat şi aranjamente de travel, pachete de vacanţă, business-travel etc. Principalul atu cu care ne-am poziţionat a fost seriozitatea şi dorinţa de a prezenta produse noi. După 10 ani, când am vândut Happy Tour, aveam 100 de angajaţi. Dar nu numărul lor era important, ci valoarea profesională şi umană. Numele companiei a fost ales aşa, pentru că sugera asocierea turismului cu bucuria de a călătorii.\r\nEu cred că întotdeauna trebui să ajungi la un echilibru în viaţă. Şi să nu uiţi că, pentru un timp, poţi să câştigi mulţi bani, dar e posibil ca uneori să nu şti când trebuie să te opreşti şi să nu te poţi bucura de ce ai realizat. Decizia nu a fost uşoară, dar când am hotârat să vindem firma, am făcut toate demersurile într-un ritm alert, fără consultanţi, fără avocaţi.\r\n\r\n\r\n- Sunteţi un foarte bun cunoscător al aviaţiei româneşti. O perioadă aţi fost directorul general al Tarom, companie de a cărei istorie recentă, vă leagă o parte din viaţă. Au fost mai multe runde de negocieri de-a lungul ultimului deceniu, pentru a stabili o colaborare puternică între travel agenţii români şi compania aviatică naţională! Ce credeţi că a câştigat sau a pierdut industria de travel într-o posibilă alianţă cu Tarom?\r\n\r\n- A fost o şansă foarte bună atât pentru Tarom cât şi pentru travel să realizăm o colaborare benefică pentru ambele părţi, având în vedere că puteam să îmbin experienţa din cele două domenii. Am avut discuţii serioase cu reprezentanţii\r\nANAT din perioada 2001-2002. Au fost chiar perspective de încheiere a unui acord.\r\nAr fi fost un câştig important dar anumite orgolii au făcut să nu realizam decât o parte din intenţii. TAROM cât şi ANAT au pierdut atunci o bună şansă de a relansa industria de travel şi de transport aerian. Dacă am fi finalizat parteneriatul am fi generat numeroase avantaje financiare pentru agenţiile de turism şi pentru transportator. Un singur exemplu: dacă ne-am fi asumat în comun responsabilitatea şi riscurile financiare pe segmentul organizării curselor charter, am fi reuşit să relansăm multe programe turistice şi, simultan, să creştem şi profitabilitatea Tarom.\r\n\r\n- În prima decadă a existenţei Asociaţiei Naţionale a Agenţiilor de Turism din România (ANAT) - organizaţie care a aniversat de curând 20 de ani de existenţă -, aţi fost o personalitate vizibilă în conducerea acesteia. După aceea v-aţi retras, optând pentru dezvoltarea business-ului în defavoarea activităţilor asociative. De ce aţi luat o asemenea decizie?\r\n\r\n- Când te afli în plutonul fruntaş, nu poţi rămâne indiferent la ce se întâmplă cu organizaţia. Am avut o perioada destul de activă în ANAT, implicat afectiv dar şi financiar. Am susţinut de unul singur, pentru o bună perioadă de timp, o emisiune de promovare a agenţiilor de turism pe un important post TV, la care eu am plătit iar alţii şi-au promovat propriul business. Am reuşit să obţin de la TAROM includerea taxei de emitere, în biletul de avion, rezolvând favorabil agenţiilor de turism păstrarea comisionului şi acest lucru a fost făcut în ciuda adversităţii unei bune părţi din ANAT, care nu înţelegea bine situaţia. Am încercat să creem în cadrul ANAT o structură asociativă, care să se ocupe doar de problemele agenţiilor IATA. Şi acest demers s-a înţeles greşit de cei din conducerea ANAT de la acea dată, motiv pentru care am hotărat că este mai prudent să mă ocup de afacerile agenţiei, decât să mă bat pentru cauze care nu erau înţelese.\r\n\r\n- Un om de afaceri din turism afirma: ”Nici un guvern nu a susţinut capitalul şi comunitatea investitorilor autohtoni. De aceea nici un guvern postdecembrist nu a cunoscut succesul!”. Care este opinia dumneavoastră vis-à-vis de această declaraţie?\r\n\r\n\r\n- Din păcate, turismul a fost în toţi aceşti ani, cenuşăreasa economiei româneşti, pentru că nu prezenta o problema socială. Guvernele au făcut investiţii serioase în tot felul de industrii falimentare, care au fost finanţate de la buget doar pentru a păstra o linişte socială, fiindcă industriile respective ulterior au dispărut. Turismul ar fi creat o bună şansă pentru România ca din orice dolar investit să obţină minimum 3 dolari venituri. “Ajutorul” acordat de guvern pentru investitorii autohtoni, a fost unul distructiv. A privatizat ONT Carpaţi – un brand naţional valoros cu importante active, cu un investitor din Cipru, pe un preţ infim. În timp ce toate firmele româneşti private, care au început de la zero, au plătit impozite serioase la stat, noii investitori, după ce au vândut toate activele, au funcţionat numai pe pierderi. Nu e un caz singular. Este trist că şi brandul ONT CARPAŢI a rămas la noul investitor.\r\n\r\n- Azi conduceţi firma de turism World Travel împreună cu soţia dumneavoastră Carmen Demetriade. Deţineţi în portofoliu mai multe branduri de colecţie de la cele de croaziere până la cele ale unor companii aviatice internaţionale. În ce măsură vă preocupă acum dezvoltarea unui compartiment de incoming şi vânzarea României ca destinaţie turistică?\r\n\r\n- Afirm cu mare regret că incomingul este doar o speranţă. Nu poţi atrage turişti străini fără să deţii o infrastructură corespunzătoare, fără un sistem de asistenţă sanitară la exigenţe europene. Se fac eforturi serioase de promovare externă dar atâta timp cât nu rezolvăm problema drumurilor, cât sistemul sanitar este în derivă incomingul rămâne un vis îndepărtat. Categoric trebuie să stabilim ce lucruri, ce destinaţii vrem să promovăm, dar mai ales ce poveşti avem în spatele lor. Americanii fac bani grozavi din vânzarea unor stânci ori locuri aflate în deşert în jurul cărora spun poveşti frumoase. Turiştii sunt încântaţi de ele. Noi avem locuri extraordinare dar nu avem nici infrastructură şi nici poveştile care să ne permită să facem bani din ele. Vedeţi, prima dată poţi minţii turistul dar dacă l-ai minţit acela nu mai calcă a doua oară prin România. Apoi, chiar dacă pare şocant, ţara noastră este extrem de riscantă pentru turişti. În cazul în care se întâmplă ceva nu ai unde să le acorzi asistenţa medicală necesară.\r\nÎn ceea ce priveşte brandurile de colecţie, trebuie să fiu la fel de sincer. Reprezentăm mai multe companii aviatice sau de croaziere în România, cele mai importante fiind Emirates şi Royal Caribbean. Nu suntem colecţionari de branduri decât în măsura în care este pot să se transforme în afaceri profitabile. Sigur, este şi o chestiune de imagine dar şi o investiţie de seriozitate a ambilor parteneri. Ca să reuşeşti să le reprezinţi şi să le promovezi trebuie multă competenţă şi răbdare. Iată că Emirates, după ani de zile, devine o afacere profitabilă stabilă, iar compania internaţională de croaziere se apropie şi ea de această linie. Da, a reprezenta o marcă străină poate deveni un business profitabil. Dar el nu devine automat profitabil. Sub acest aspect piaţa românească este încă generoasă în oportunităţi. World Travel derulează negocieri şi cu alte companii internaţionale de top.\r\n\r\n- În viziunea dumneavoastră poate fi turismul cartea noastră cîştigătoare, cu care ne putem impune şi individualiza în Uniunea Europeană ?\r\n\r\n- Şi România poate deveni o destinaţie turistică dar nu trebuie să uităm că am rămas mult în urma vecinilor noştri, cu care nu ne putem compara nici din punct de vedere al sezonalităţii. Cred că nici nu ar trebui să ne comparăm. N-avem cu ce să impresionăm prea mult. Decât cu Delta Dunării, cu Bucovina, cu Maramureşul, care însă se alterează rapid arhitectonic şi din punct de vedere al tradiţiilor. Avem însă şansa să arătăm lucruri naturale în Munţii Carpaţi. Dar ca să le vinzi trebuie să fi foarte aproape de turist, pentru a-l feri de tot felul de evenimente ce i-ar putea altera vacanţa. Să o spunem cu sinceritate - lumea reală din ţara noastră, destul de agresivă, nu avantajează prea mult destinaţiile pe care pe promovăm. Iată şi câţiva factori de risc: oferim lucruri care nu se dovedesc atractive pentru vizitatorii străini; dorinţa unor ofertanţi de servicii de a câştiga cât mai mult pe o unitate scurtă de timp; sezonalitatea turistică redusă – 2-3 luni pe an, atât pe segmentul litoral cât şi pe cel montan. Mai amplu ar putea fi valorificate turismul balnear şi rural. În fine, micii întreprinzători din turism, căci ei formează baza serviciilor nu sunt orientaţi cu faţa spre client. Ei nu au forţa de a se promova şi, ca atare nici puterea de a rezista o perioadă îndelungată fără turişti. Involuţia segmentelor de turism mentionate, era previzibilă. Fără turişti, fără facilităţi fiscale, cu un sezon de litoral şi montan extrem de scurte, nu poate nimeni să reziste mult timp în business, decât dacă face rabat la calitate. Apoi am ratat şi şansa de a privatiza industria hotelieră cu mari lanţuri hoteliere internaţionale, şi de a le atrage spre staţiunile existente, în cadrul unui parteneriat profitabil. De a ne vinde unor investitori străini reali, care ar fi generat performanţă şi profit. În toata lumea, turismul aduce şi alte business-uri şi profituri considerabile. Ca urmare va trebui ca şi România să facă din turism o prioritate naţională.\r\n\r\n- Se spune că România a devenit o ţară a proiectelor fără sfârşit! E acoperită această afirmaţie ?\r\n\r\n- Problema nu e că avem proiecte, ci că rămânem la stadiu de proiect. Ştiţi cum au reuşit să ajungă turcii o superputere turistică în mai bine de un deceniu. Au generat şi au construit sute de hoteluri în cadrul unei viziuni economice naţionale. Ele au fost susţinute de către stat. Sigur, facilităţile fiscale în turism ar fi benefice, dar ele nu se sudează, nu pot genera dezvoltare decât dacă există un proiect, un program naţional clar şi de perspectivă. Pe 15-20 de ani. Partea proastă a lucrurilor este că fiecare guvern, vine mereu la putere cu ceva “original” şi în materie de turism. Şi o luăm de la capăt. Deci nu avem predictibilitate. Reinventăm lumea la fiecare patru ani şi acest proces este extrem de costisitor. Cred că la asta făceaţi referinţă.\r\n\r\n- Deşi este un proiect mai vechi el nu s-a materializat nici azi. Credeţi că este posibilă în România, crearea unei alianţe de travel pentru a forma un touroperator puternic, capabil să se impună pe pieţele internaţionale. Sau acesta este un model depăşit!\r\n\r\n- În 2005, am sperat că pot să materializez un astfel de proiect. Am reuşit pentru prima oara – şi singura dată, să aduc la masa discuţiilor alte două agenţii de turism din rândul primelor 3 din România, în intenţia de a forma un consolidator de travel. Am infiinţat şi o firmă, CONSOLIDATOR TRAVEL, care trebuia să unească forţa de vânzare a celor trei, astfel încât să obţină parteneriate favorabile cu marii touroperatori globali şi companiile aeriene, ceea ce ar fi adus avantaje nu numai agenţiilor în cauză, dar şi turiştilor care ar fi beneficiat de preţuri mai atractive şi servicii superioare. Discuţiile au avansat, am participat toţi trei în comun la Târgul de Turism al României. Dar, din păcate, au fost şi orgolii şi invidie care au făcut ca acest important proiect să eşueze. Am înteles atunci că nu avem şansa de a ne unii în această industrie, de a avea puncte de vedere comune şi am\r\nînceput să mă gândesc la vânzarea firmei noastre.\r\n\r\n- Se vorbeşte mult despre piaţa muncii calificate, profesionalizate. Travelul este probabil cel mai dinamic prin schimbările ce apar în fiecare an la nivel tehnologic şi organizatoric. Suntem pregătiţi să facem faţă ritmului schimbărilor? Nu numai la nivel de top-management, fireşte!\r\n\r\n- Agenţiile de turism româneşti au parcurs într-o perioadă foarte scurtă, etape importante în dezvoltarea tehnologiei. Atât managementul cât şi travel agenţii au demonstrat că sunt bine pregătiţi şi au o capacitate formidabilă de adaptare la cerinţele pieţei. În ceea ce ne priveşte pot spune că, în 2007, Happy Tour avea o echipă capabilă să organizeze orice tip de eveniment. Aveam oameni bine pregătiţi, avem acces la tehnologie şi la touroperatorii internaţionali. Nu eram cu nimic mai prejos decât alte agenţii de turism din străinătate cu un istoric mult mai bogat. În general s-a trecut de la stadiul incipient, foarte rapid la cel modern, avansat. Aş mai dori doar să precizez că sunt partizanul unor competiţii reale. Nu mă interesează cea în care concurenţa scade preţurile până se apropie de faliment. S-au văzut cazuri. Asta nu e concurenţă. Adevărata competiţie se duce pe planul calităţii, unde câştigă cel mai serios, cel care a oferit cel mai bun raport între calitate şi preţ. Şi eu sunt convins că am dovedit acest lucru. Cu Happy Tour şi, acum, cu World Travel.\r\n\r\n- În tot mai multe ţări se vorbeşte despre necesitatea unui naţionalismul economic! Cât de viabil e acest concept în contextul economiei globalizate?\r\n\r\n- Cred că este o cauză pierdută, atât timp cât investitorii strategici deţin cele mai profitabile activităţi din ţară.\r\n\r\n- Unii confraţi de breaslă afirmă că turistul român este unul dintre cei mai dificili dn lume. E o exagerare?\r\n\r\n- Nu suntem mai dificili decât alţii. Poate doar mai exigenţi şi cred că este normal atâta timp cât fiecare turist se asteaptă să primească servicii de calitate.\r\n\r\n- Care vi se pare a fi cel mai important lucru în viaţă ?\r\n\r\n- Dacă eşti sănătos, este foarte important să fi serios în tot ce faci. Aşa vei putea reuşi în viaţă.\r\n\r\n- Dacă ar fi să stabiliţi un top al preferinţelor care ar fi primele destinaţii, oraşe, zone din România?\r\n\r\n- Bucovina şi Delta Dunării sunt două zone extraordinare.\r\n\r\n- Dar în lume. Ce locuri de călătorie preferaţi. Şi de ce!\r\n\r\n- Preferinţele sunt generate de percepţii şi amintiri. Dubaiul -unde am trăit şi muncit zece ani, mi-a oferit momente de neuitat, St. Petersburg -pentru bogăţia patrimoniului arhitectural, Zona Caraibbelor – pentru peisajul marin şi viaţa plină de optimism.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','INTERVIU NICOLAE DEMETRIADE','','inherit','open','open','','69-revision-2','','','2011-03-11 12:43:11','2011-03-11 10:43:11','',69,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/11/69-revision-2/',0,'revision','',0),(80,1,'2011-03-11 13:02:10','2011-03-11 11:02:10','INTALNIRE FIJET - BODRUM, TURCIA\r\nDin oraşul lui Herodot până la Efes (2)\r\nO luptă cu doi câştigători\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_82\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Bodrum oras\"]![\"Bodrum](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Bodrum-P10102791.jpg\" "\\"Bodrum")

Dar istoria şi negoţul febril, consumul excesiv al oamenilor veniţi în vacanţa de vis şi peisajul saturat de albastru al Coastelor Egeei? Citiţi răspunsurile în reportajul următor, dedicat atracţiilor turistice ale staţuinilor Bodrum şi Kuşadasi. Documentarea a fost prilejuită de cel de al 53-lea Congres al Federaţiei Internaţionale a Jurnaliştilor şi Scriitorilor de Turism (FIJET). Coasta de Vest a Turciei şi staţiunile sale diferă în multe aspecte faţă de zona de sud a ţării (Antalya - Alanya) cu care, poate, turistul român este mai obişnuit. Aici ţărmul se desfăşoară ondulat, cu mici peninsule, golfuri şi plaje înguste şi scurte. Multe dintre hoteluri sunt aşezate în trepte, pe dealuri ce coboară spre mare, arhitectură care aduce în faţa ochilor peisaje relaxante.Avantaje ale BodrumuluiBodrum, oraşul lui Herodot (cunoscut în antichitate ca şi Halicarnas), se află pe o mică peninsulă în Marea Egee. Viaţa sa se concentrează în zona Marinei, de-a lungul unui golf ce îmbie lumea cu restaurantele şi terasele sale aşezate pe nisip. Din oricare dintre ele se vede silueta masivă, crenelată, a Castelului. Construit de Cavalerii Ioaniţi pe la 1500 el adăposteşte în curţile sale interioare pline de leandru, turnuri medievale şi un excelent Muzeu de Arheologie Subacvatică. Instituţia a fost deschisă în 1960, dar modul de expunere este unul interactiv, modern. Expoziţiile aduc, pe lângă o multitudine de amfore şi vase greceşti, capturile de pe epave descoperite în zonă (miceniene, bizantine ori medievale). Obiectele din sticlă şi mormântul reconstituit al unei prinţese sunt câteva argumente pentru care ar trebui să vă alocaţi cel puţin trei ore acestei vizite.\r\n\r\nÎn mica piaţă din faţa castelului se află şi birourile de turism de unde se pot cumpăra bilete de croazieră spre câteva insule greceşti Kos şi Rhodos, situate la o oră depărtare de ţărmul turcesc. Străduţele comerciale încep tot aici şi se complică într-un labirint de alei acoperite cu crengi răsucite de leandru, magazinele oferind genţi de marcă, piele de bună calitate, cămăşi, artizanat. Nu trebuie însă să cădeţi în greşeala de a negocia marfa. Vânzătorii din Bodrum nu mai sunt dispuşi demult la această veche plăcere şi vă pot întoarce spatele, fără drept la replică! Negoţul s-a schimbat aici, dar în rău. E agresiv şi fără farmec.Hoteluri cu stilHotelul Marmara, o locaţie cu design postmodern (uşi transparente la toalete şi tablouri ce au ochi din leduri colarate!) e situat pe vârful unui deal, deasupra oraşului vechi. Vederea asupra golfului, mai ales la apus, e demnă de o seară romantică.\r\n\r\nBodrum Holiday Resort & Spa îţi oferă un restaurant aproape deasupra mării şi o combinaţie seducătoare de albastru mediteraneean, alb şi flori căţărătoare. Imaginea aceasta o reîntâlniţi şi ieşind din Bodrum, în direcţia Turgutreis, unde veţi traversa zeci de cartiere noi, de vile de vacanţă. Depăşind localitatea daţi de hotelul Kefaluka, o destinaţie excelentă pentru familii, cu o vedere splendidă din mai toate camerele, asupra insulei greceşti Kos.Avantaje pentru KuşadasiDe la Bodrum la Kuşadasi e un drum de cam trei ore cu maşina. Staţiunile seamănă mult între ele, ca şi aşezare, cea din urmă fiind însă mai aproape de două puncte de interes: Casa Fecioarei Maria (Meryemana) şi oraşul antic Efes. Complexele hoteliere sunt mari (Fantasia, Rixos etc.) şi pentru toate gusturile.\r\n\r\nLa distanţă de o oră Meryemana este un loc de pelerinaj, vizitat de oameni aparţinând tuturor credinţelor. Legenda spune că biserica din piatră care se vede astăzi a fost construită pe locul casei Feciorei Maria. Ea ar fi venit la Efes împreună cu Sf. Ioan. Se pot aprinde lumânări dar există şi un zid pe care cei doritori pot agăţa bilete cu dorinţele ori mulţumirile lor.\r\n\r\nDespre Efes (o intrare în complex este pe drumul ce coboară de la casa Fecioarei) Strabon spunea că ar fi fost întemeiat de amazoane. Grecii l-au transformat în secolul al VI-lea î. Hr. într-unul din cele mai prospere oraşe ale coastei. Fie că vă plac ori nu ruinele, fie că le vedeţi ca pe o grămadă de pietre inutile ori ca pe opere de artă... e greu să nu vă placă Efes! Oraşul antic are şi astăzi o întindere impresionantă, o zi nefiind de multe ori de ajuns pentru a îl vizita pe îndelete. Ruinele din perioada romană sunt cele mai vizibile. Templul lui Hadrian şi Biblioteca lui Celsus mai că te hipnotizează cu eleganţa şi bogăţia decoraţiunii sculpturale. Strada portului are 500 metri lungime. Pe vremea romanilor oraşul se bucura de aceleaşi privilegii ca şi Roma, strada aceasta fiind luminată noaptea. Teatrul de la unul dintre capetele sale avea o capacitate de 24.000 de spectatori iar în sezon se organizează spectacole variate. Mozaicurile geometrice pavează drumul oamenilor de vază, băile, toalete cu canalizare, bordelul şi ampla piaţă de mărfuri, explicate de un ghid atestat, pot deveni fascinante. Altfel o plimbare de la un capăt la altul al sitului durează cam o oră.\r\n\r\nCasa Fecioarei dar şi Efesul sunt călcate de... puhoaie de oameni, zilnic.Valurile de turişti pot face vizita înghesuită şi debusolantă.\r\n\r\nÎn Bodrum ca şi în Kuşadasi poţi sta o săptămână fără să te plictiseşti. Hotelurile din apropierea lor dar şi cele din localităţile alăturate au serviciu de transport. Autobuzele locale sunt foarte convenabile, sigure, rapide. Staţiunile în sine sunt uşor de străbătut cu piciorul. Vă recomandăm, pentru ambele destinaţii, perioadele de extrasezon.

[/caption]\r\n\r\nPETRA – Roz, Roz, Roz\r\nŞtiu! Când vă gândiţi la viaţa în roz imediat începeţi să fredonaţi cunoscutul şlagăr al artistei Edith Piaf şi vă ia un dor de ducă spre Paris. Există însă şi un alt loc care s-a transformat într-un magnet turistic în ultimul deceniu. Petra. Este, la propriu, un monument fabulos, legat sută la sută de culoarea roz. Se află în mijlocul deşertului iar imaginea de promovare turistică a Iordaniei este concentrată pe clădirea Tezaurului, primul loc care focalizează atenţia turistului.\r\n\r\nCând ţi-ai fixat în gând să pleci spre Petra – cunoscut şi ca oraşul roz sau oraşul trandafiriu -, nu uita să-ţi iei aparatul de fotografiat şi să te înarmezi cu cel puţin doi litri de apă. Doar 260 de kilometri, la sud, despart cel mai faimos site arheologic al Iordaniei de capitala Amman şi numai 133 kilometri la nord, de oraşul-port Aqaba. Petra se află lângă oraşelul Wadi Musa. Circulaţia turistică a fost bine stimulată de către declararea acestui vestigiu valoare de patrimoniu mondial UNESCO. În plus, de anul trecut Petra, a devenit una dintre cele 7 Noi Minuni ale Lumii. Înainte de a pleca la drum mai ar trebui să şti că oraşul antic asigură o mare parte din veniturile turistice ale Iordaniei care strânge la buget anual circa 1 miliard de dolari din buzunarul călătorilor. E ceva, raportat la populaţia ţări ce se ridică la circa 6 milioane de locuitori.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_40\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Iordania Petra camile\"]![\"Iordania](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/PETRA-176.jpg\" "\\"Iordania")
[/caption]\r\n\r\nSă nu vă credeţi la Viena!\r\nCe veţi găsi fascinant aici? Hai la drum! Moştenirea nabateenilor, un popor arab venit din sudul Iordaniei cu mai bine de circa 2.200 de ani în urmă se deschide generos în faţa ochilor turiştilor. E un loc de pelerinaj. Dar nu veţi aştepta prea mult la coadă. La intrare se află clădirea Centrului de Informare Turistică unde ţi se oferă gratuit un pliant tipărit în principalele limbi de circulaţie internaţională. Discret, ţi se atrage atenţia că dacă la sfârşitul vizitei nu mai ai nevoie de el îl poţi restitui în acelaşi loc. Chestiune de educaţie. Pentru că după tine vin alte zeci de mii de turişti care s-ar bucura să aibă un ghid de orientare. Zis şi făcut. Înainte de a intra în oraş comersanţii cu hainele lor colorate te îmbie cu tot felul de oferte. Dacă eşti tare la negocieri iată-te intrat în Petra îmbrăcat ca un localnic. Atenţie, de aici începe marele drum. Spun marele drum, pentru că el măsoară câţiva kilometri, dacă vrei să vezi cât mai multe. Eşti mai comod sau te deplasezi mai greu? Cu numai câţiva dolari, ai propria trăsură, sau o căruţă pe două roţi, cu umbrar. Ei, să nu vă credeţi la Viena! Sunteţi în deşert. Dar caii trag bine, şi în vreo 20 de minute ajungeţi în faţa clădirii Tezaurului. Dacă vă place să călăriţi vă aşteaptă, tot de închiriat, nişte cai pur sînge care în fuga lor îţi crează senzaţia unei răcoriri temporare. Poate doriţi cămile sau măgăruşi. Sunteţi servit.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_41\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"224\" caption=\"Iordania Petra vizita\"]![\"Iordania](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/PETRA-247.jpg\" "\\"Iordania")
[/caption]\r\n\r\nPe urmele lui Burkhardt\r\nAjuns în inima Petrei rămâi impresionat. Cum probabil a rămas şi cercetătorul elveţian Johann Ludwig Burkhardt care a redescoperit oraşul în 1812. Nimeni nu a crezut că se poate întâmpla o asemenea minune, mai ales că aşezarea antică a nabateenilor era considerată doar o legendă piedută în... nisipurile istoriei. Burckhardt, bun cunscător al limbii arabe s-a deghizat în musulman şi a câştigat încrederea localnicilor. Ei l-au condus până la intrarea în defileu pe valea Bab as-Sique. De aici se deschide cartea de piatră în ale cărei pagini poţi urmări urmele vieţii săpate în stânci. Fascinaţia locului. Civilizaţii şi culturi suprapuse. Monumentele amintesc de stilurile greco-roman, egiptean ori mesopotamian. Până în inima vechiului oraş trebuie să străbaţi circa 1.200 de metri prin As Siq, un culoar săpat printre stânci înalte de peste 80 de metri. Când ridici ochii te ia ameţeala. Pe stânga şi pe dreapta observi sute de sculpturi în piatră maronie şi bej, ce amintesc de figurile unor zei, de lăcaşuri tombale, de pietre votive. Pe marginile Siq-ului se mai pot vedea încă, şanţurile canalului de colectare, folosit de nabateeni pentru a aduce apa până in inima Petrei. Ploile cădeau cam de două ori pe an dar nabateenii cunoşteau tehnica extragerii apei de la mari adâncimi. Asta le-a permis să poată construi şi locui în oraşul din mijlocul deşertului.\r\n\r\nTezaurul regilor sau al piraţilor ?\r\nPoţi afla şi mai multe dacă cumperi o broşură de la unul dintre copii care te aşteaptă pe stânci. La Al-Khazneh (Sala Tezaurului), te întâlneşti cu geniul arhitectural al nabateenilor care au tăiat în stânci o clădire impresionantă cu o faţadă de 43 de metri înalţime şi 30 de metri lăţime, cea mai elaborată, a oraşului antic. Monumentul îmbina elementele orientale cu cele de sorginte romană. Este locul cel mai fotografiat din Iordania. Stânca este la fel de spectaculoasă atât dimineaţa cât şi după amiaza, interval în care nuanţele de culoare ale acesteia se schimbă în permanenţă. Scopul ridicării monumentului rămâne un mister. Locul adăposteşte morminte regale. Dar denumirea a fost dată de legende conform cărora aici şi-ar fi ascuns piraţii comorile jefuite. Misterul trebuie întreţinut şi apărat. Ca urmare clădirea Tezaurului, este păzită zi şi noapte de soldaţi iordanieni, înarmaţi până în dinţi. Au o privire dură, ce parcă sugerează turiştilor să nu lase mizerie în urma lor. În realitate au funcţie turistică şi fac parte din decor. Ei acceptă cu plăcere să se fotografieze cu toţi copii, tinerii, ori călătorii fără vârstă, care s-au încumetat până aici. Merită toţi o asemenea recompensă.\r\n\r\nReligia turistului –800 de scări\r\nPentru că locul este şi o lecţie vie de istorie aici vin numeroşi tineri iordanieni de la şcoli, colegii ori universităţi. Le-am luat urma pentru că au fost foarte prietenoşi, şi împreună cu ei am pornit spre mormintele şi camerele tombale unde sunt adăpostite rămăşiţele unor mari demnitari nabateeni. Toate sunt săpate în stâncă, asemenea şi Palatului morţilor ai cărui pereţi tociţi, parcă au fost lustruiţi de furtunile de nisip. Ca şi mormântul lui Sextius Florentinus, guvernatorul roman al Arabiei care a dorit să fie înmormântat la Petra. El datează din perioada 126-130.

Când vă gândiţi la viaţa în roz imediat începeţi să fredonaţi cunoscutul şlagăr al artistei Edith Piaf şi vă ia un dor de ducă spre Paris. Există însă şi un alt loc care s-a transformat într-un magnet turistic în ultimul deceniu. Petra. Este, la propriu, un monument fabulos, legat sută la sută de culoarea roz. Se află în mijlocul deşertului iar imaginea de promovare turistică a Iordaniei este concentrată pe clădirea Tezaurului, primul loc care focalizează atenţia turistului.\n\n\n\nCând ţi-ai fixat în gând să pleci spre Petra – cunoscut şi ca oraşul roz sau oraşul trandafiriu -, nu uita să-ţi iei aparatul de fotografiat şi să te înarmezi cu cel puţin doi litri de apă. Doar 260 de kilometri, la sud, despart cel mai faimos site arheologic al Iordaniei de capitala Amman şi numai 133 kilometri la nord, de oraşul-port Aqaba. Petra se află lângă oraşelul Wadi Musa. Circulaţia turistică a fost bine stimulată de către declararea acestui vestigiu valoare de patrimoniu mondial UNESCO. În plus, de anul trecut Petra, a devenit una dintre cele 7 Noi Minuni ale Lumii. Înainte de a pleca la drum mai ar trebui să şti că oraşul antic asigură o mare parte din veniturile turistice ale Iordaniei care strânge la buget anual circa 1 miliard de dolari din buzunarul călătorilor. E ceva, raportat la populaţia ţări ce se ridică la circa 6 milioane de locuitori.\n\nSă nu vă credeţi la Viena!\nCe veţi găsi fascinant aici? Hai la drum! Moştenirea nabateenilor, un popor arab venit din sudul Iordaniei cu mai bine de circa 2.200 de ani în urmă se deschide generos în faţa ochilor turiştilor. E un loc de pelerinaj.

Înainte de a intra în oraş comersanţii cu hainele lor colorate te îmbie cu tot felul de oferte. Dacă eşti tare la negocieri iată-te intrat în Petra îmbrăcat ca un localnic. Atenţie, de aici începe marele drum. Spun marele drum, pentru că el măsoară câţiva kilometri, dacă vrei să vezi cât mai multe. Eşti mai comod sau te deplasezi mai greu?

Nimeni nu a crezut că se poate întâmpla o asemenea minune, mai ales că aşezarea antică a nabateenilor era considerată doar o legendă piedută în... nisipurile istoriei. Burckhardt, bun cunscător al limbii arabe s-a deghizat în musulman şi a câştigat încrederea localnicilor. Ei l-au condus până la intrarea în defileu pe valea Bab as-Sique. De aici se deschide cartea de piatră în ale cărei pagini poţi urmări urmele vieţii săpate în stânci. Fascinaţia locului. Civilizaţii şi culturi suprapuse.

Până în inima vechiului oraş trebuie să străbaţi circa 1.200 de metri prin As Siq, un culoar săpat printre stânci înalte de peste 80 de metri. Când ridici ochii te ia ameţeala. Pe stânga şi pe dreapta observi sute de sculpturi în piatră maronie şi bej, ce amintesc de figurile unor zei, de lăcaşuri tombale, de pietre votive. Pe marginile Siq-ului se mai pot vedea încă, şanţurile canalului de colectare, folosit de nabateeni pentru a aduce apa până in inima Petrei.

Monumentul îmbina elementele orientale cu cele de sorginte romană. Este locul cel mai fotografiat din Iordania. Stânca este la fel de spectaculoasă atât dimineaţa cât şi după amiaza, interval în care nuanţele de culoare ale acesteia se schimbă în permanenţă. Scopul ridicării monumentului rămâne un mister.

Dar istoria şi negoţul febril, consumul excesiv al oamenilor veniţi în vacanţa de vis şi peisajul saturat de albastru al Coastelor Egeei? Citiţi răspunsurile în reportajul următor, dedicat atracţiilor turistice ale staţuinilor Bodrum şi Kuşadasi. Documentarea a fost prilejuită de cel de al 53-lea Congres al Federaţiei Internaţionale a Jurnaliştilor şi Scriitorilor de Turism (FIJET). Coasta de Vest a Turciei şi staţiunile sale diferă în multe aspecte faţă de zona de sud a ţării (Antalya - Alanya) cu care, poate, turistul român este mai obişnuit. Aici ţărmul se desfăşoară ondulat, cu mici peninsule, golfuri şi plaje înguste şi scurte. Multe dintre hoteluri sunt aşezate în trepte, pe dealuri ce coboară spre mare, arhitectură care aduce în faţa ochilor peisaje relaxante.Avantaje ale BodrumuluiBodrum, oraşul lui Herodot (cunoscut în antichitate ca şi Halicarnas), se află pe o mică peninsulă în Marea Egee. Viaţa sa se concentrează în zona Marinei, de-a lungul unui golf ce îmbie lumea cu restaurantele şi terasele sale aşezate pe nisip. Din oricare dintre ele se vede silueta masivă, crenelată, a Castelului. Construit de Cavalerii Ioaniţi pe la 1500 el adăposteşte în curţile sale interioare pline de leandru, turnuri medievale şi un excelent Muzeu de Arheologie Subacvatică. Instituţia a fost deschisă în 1960, dar modul de expunere este unul interactiv, modern. Expoziţiile aduc, pe lângă o multitudine de amfore şi vase greceşti, capturile de pe epave descoperite în zonă (miceniene, bizantine ori medievale). Obiectele din sticlă şi mormântul reconstituit al unei prinţese sunt câteva argumente pentru care ar trebui să vă alocaţi cel puţin trei ore acestei vizite.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_81\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Bodrum piata\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nÎn mica piaţă din faţa castelului se află şi birourile de turism de unde se pot cumpăra bilete de croazieră spre câteva insule greceşti Kos şi Rhodos, situate la o oră depărtare de ţărmul turcesc. Străduţele comerciale încep tot aici şi se complică într-un labirint de alei acoperite cu crengi răsucite de leandru, magazinele oferind genţi de marcă, piele de bună calitate, cămăşi, artizanat. Nu trebuie însă să cădeţi în greşeala de a negocia marfa. Vânzătorii din Bodrum nu mai sunt dispuşi demult la această veche plăcere şi vă pot întoarce spatele, fără drept la replică! Negoţul s-a schimbat aici, dar în rău. E agresiv şi fără farmec.Hoteluri cu stilHotelul Marmara, o locaţie cu design postmodern (uşi transparente la toalete şi tablouri ce au ochi din leduri colarate!) e situat pe vârful unui deal, deasupra oraşului vechi. Vederea asupra golfului, mai ales la apus, e demnă de o seară romantică.\r\n\r\nBodrum Holiday Resort & Spa îţi oferă un restaurant aproape deasupra mării şi o combinaţie seducătoare de albastru mediteraneean, alb şi flori căţărătoare. Imaginea aceasta o reîntâlniţi şi ieşind din Bodrum, în direcţia Turgutreis, unde veţi traversa zeci de cartiere noi, de vile de vacanţă. Depăşind localitatea daţi de hotelul Kefaluka, o destinaţie excelentă pentru familii, cu o vedere splendidă din mai toate camerele, asupra insulei greceşti Kos.Avantaje pentru KuşadasiDe la Bodrum la Kuşadasi e un drum de cam trei ore cu maşina. Staţiunile seamănă mult între ele, ca şi aşezare, cea din urmă fiind însă mai aproape de două puncte de interes: Casa Fecioarei Maria (Meryemana) şi oraşul antic Efes. Complexele hoteliere sunt mari (Fantasia, Rixos etc.) şi pentru toate gusturile.\r\n\r\nLa distanţă de o oră Meryemana este un loc de pelerinaj, vizitat de oameni aparţinând tuturor credinţelor. Legenda spune că biserica din piatră care se vede astăzi a fost construită pe locul casei Feciorei Maria. Ea ar fi venit la Efes împreună cu Sf. Ioan. Se pot aprinde lumânări dar există şi un zid pe care cei doritori pot agăţa bilete cu dorinţele ori mulţumirile lor.\r\n\r\nDespre Efes (o intrare în complex este pe drumul ce coboară de la casa Fecioarei) Strabon spunea că ar fi fost întemeiat de amazoane. Grecii l-au transformat în secolul al VI-lea î. Hr. într-unul din cele mai prospere oraşe ale coastei. Fie că vă plac ori nu ruinele, fie că le vedeţi ca pe o grămadă de pietre inutile ori ca pe opere de artă... e greu să nu vă placă Efes! Oraşul antic are şi astăzi o întindere impresionantă, o zi nefiind de multe ori de ajuns pentru a îl vizita pe îndelete. Ruinele din perioada romană sunt cele mai vizibile. Templul lui Hadrian şi Biblioteca lui Celsus mai că te hipnotizează cu eleganţa şi bogăţia decoraţiunii sculpturale. Strada portului are 500 metri lungime. Pe vremea romanilor oraşul se bucura de aceleaşi privilegii ca şi Roma, strada aceasta fiind luminată noaptea. Teatrul de la unul dintre capetele sale avea o capacitate de 24.000 de spectatori iar în sezon se organizează spectacole variate. Mozaicurile geometrice pavează drumul oamenilor de vază, băile, toalete cu canalizare, bordelul şi ampla piaţă de mărfuri, explicate de un ghid atestat, pot deveni fascinante. Altfel o plimbare de la un capăt la altul al sitului durează cam o oră.\r\n\r\nCasa Fecioarei dar şi Efesul sunt călcate de... puhoaie de oameni, zilnic.Valurile de turişti pot face vizita înghesuită şi debusolantă.\r\n\r\nÎn Bodrum ca şi în Kuşadasi poţi sta o săptămână fără să te plictiseşti. Hotelurile din apropierea lor dar şi cele din localităţile alăturate au serviciu de transport. Autobuzele locale sunt foarte convenabile, sigure, rapide. Staţiunile în sine sunt uşor de străbătut cu piciorul. Vă recomandăm, pentru ambele destinaţii, perioadele de extrasezon. Şi atunci sunt mulţi turişti dar aerul e respirabil şi vizitele mai plăcute.\r\n\r\nSÎNZIANA & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul logistic al companiei ACCENT TRAVEL & EVENTS','Intalnire Fijet, Bodrum-Turcia','','inherit','open','open','','80-revision-3','','','2011-03-11 13:04:25','2011-03-11 11:04:25','',80,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/11/80-revision-3/',0,'revision','',0),(95,1,'2011-03-11 13:50:56','2011-03-11 11:50:56','OLIMPIC INTERNATIONAL - 20 DE ANI!\r\n\r\nGEORGE SORIN NICOLESCU: “20 de ani sunt o felie de istorie!”\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_98\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"242\" caption=\"Olimpic International\"]![\"Olimpic](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Nicolescu-premiu-SUA1.jpg\" "\\"Nicolescu")

Numai aşa poţi face faţă creşterii şi descreşterii unui anumit domeniu. Au fost anumite perioade în care ticketingul a mers foarte bine, apoi incomingul, outgoingul ori turismul de evenimente pe care eu îl consider cel mai complex. Logic, ar urma întărirea activităţilor de incoming. Eu cred că legăturile între oameni consolidează relaţiile de afaceri şi zona corporate travel.

[/caption]\r\n\r\nLa Poiana Lungă s-a scris o poezie a istoriei\r\n\r\nÎntr-o sâmbătă frumoasă de noiembrie ruginiu, ne-am hotărât plecăm într-o excursie pe Valea Cernei, într-un cătun izolat de munte, Poiana Lungă. De Poiana Lungă am aflat din poezia întitulată astfel, scrisă de împărăteasa Elisabeta, legendara Sisi.\r\n\r\nStând de vorbă cu profesorul pensionar, Iancu Feneşan - păstrător al inelului împărătesei, dăruit străbunicului lui, Mihail Feneşan, inel pe care revista Traveller Magazin l-a prezentat în premieră -, am aflat că Poiana Lungă este un cătun al comunei Cornereva, din Munţii Cernei, la vreo 15 – 20 de kilometri de Bogâltin. Şi aşa am ajuns, după mai bine de trei ore de urcat, călăuzit de Ana Maria şi Ilie, doi fii ai muntelui, la poalele Muntelui Arjana, unde se află Poiana Lungă.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_32\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"224\" caption=\"Imparateasa Sisi\"]![\"Imparateasa](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/ELISABETA-3.jpg\" "\\"Imparateasa")
[/caption]\r\n\r\nAm tras la familia Novăcescu, în creierul munţilor, în zona numită Bedina. Localitatea se numeşte Poiana Lungă. Vârful Arjana (1512 m), se înalţă semeţ în stânga noastră, iar undeva mai jos, izvorăşte zglobiu pârâul Bedina ce se varsă în Cerna. Nicolae Novăcescu, gazda noastră, bun gospodar, ca orice om de munte, se pricepe la multe: să facă “toble” (scânduri) cu drujba, scaune din bardă, să zidească, să pună gresie şi faianţă, să producă energie electrică cu un generator acţionat de apa muntelui, să tragă apă în casă, într-un cuvânt să convieţuiască armonios cu natura. Asediaţi de mere roşii şi pere aurii, Novăcescu îmi prezintă familia: soţia sa, Maria, Daniel, un băieţel voinic de 4 ani, Ilie, băiatul cel mare, de 14 ani şi Ana–Maria, fata de 18 ani, elevă la Colegiul Hercules din Băile Herculane.\r\n\r\nIntru în vorbă cu Nicolae Novăcescu. Încerc să-i înţeleg resorturile intime prin care reuşeşte, din munca lui, să-şi întreţină o familie numeroasă şi să-şi facă o casă “care se învârte după soare”, după gusturile şi ideile pe care Ana–Maria ştie să le impună tuturor membrilor familiei. Mă uit la peisajul generos luminat de razele calde ale unei toamne târzii, adăpostit ca într-o căldare de către Vârful Arjana şi de Geanţurile Bedinei. În zare, dincolo de Valea Cernei, se zăresc pereţii de calcar ai Munţilor Mehedinţi. Mă gândesc ce aş mai putea să vorbesc cu acest om, care în două vorbe scurte m-a făcut să înţeleg filozofia lui de viaţă. Mi-a vorbit de vecinul cel mai apropiat, moşu Lazăr Rădoi, de 70 de ani, care stă cu baba lui la circa o jumate de oră de mers de la casa sa. Mi-a povestit cum, atunci când a montat generatorul de curent pe pârâul Bedina, i-a tras şi vecinului său un cablu ca să aibă curent şi lumină la bătrâneţe. Un fapt normal între doi vecini. Aici sus, în singurătatea munţilor, gesturile şi omenia au altă greutate.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_33\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Imparateasa Sisi\"]![\"Imparateasa](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/ELISABETA-4.jpg\" "\\"Imparateasa")
[/caption]\r\n\r\n- Aţi avut oaspeţi aici, în creierul munţilor? Îi cunoşteai sau au venit întâmplător?\r\n- Da, or venit din Oradea, Timişoara, Oţelu Roşu, Ploieşti, chiar Germania. Dar au venit şi excursionişti, cu motociclete, cu ATV-uri, pe drumul de la Bogâltin. Am avut acum o vreme, două persoane din Germania, unul cu o mototcicletă şi unul cu ATV–ul. Îmi aduc aminte, ploia, erau uzi bine. Le-am zis, mai mult prin semne: “Haidaţi, să dormiţi la mine!”. Le-am dat să mănânce. M-au filmat, aveau un aparat. Dimineaţa ar fi vrut să-mi dea un ban că au mâncat, au dormit, erau bucuroşi că au găsit un adăpost. Da eu nu am vrut să iau nimic, nu prea luăm noi.\r\n\r\n- Mai ştii vre-un traseu, de aici la Băile Herculane?- Păi ştiu că bunicul nevesti-mi cobora în fiecare an, primăvara de Paşti, cu mieii în Platoul Coronini. Aveam o rudă acolo unde veneau clienţii şi luau miei de acolo. Din Platoul Coronini se urca în culmea muntelui până la Iarba moale şi de acolo, imediat, se cobora în Poiana Lungă. Imediat după coasta aceea, după ce se urcă pe Cracu Împărătesei se ajunge la Poiana Lungă, cam în zece minute.\r\n\r\nCracu Împărătesei! Simt cum oboseala celor trei ore de urcuş se topeşte. Bucuria certitudinii îmi luminează dintr-o dată, faţa. Sentimentul pe care l-am trăit, la auzul acestor cuvinte a fost asemănător cu cel trăit la descoperirea versurilor scrise de împărăteasa Elisabeta despre Băile Herculane, la Viena. În sfârşit, aveam încă o dovadă a excursiilor împărătesei prin aceste locuri. Trecere care avea să fie observată de locuitorii zonei ce au dat numele de “Cracu Împărătesei” locului în care îi plăcea împărătesei să se plimbe şi care, probabil, i-a inspirat scrierea poeziei “Poiana Lungă”. A doua zi, m-am trezit de dimineaţă, cu gândul la “Poiana Lungă” şi la “Cracu Împărătesei”. Am coborât într-o vale, după care am început să urcăm printr-o pădure de conifere, însoţiţi de Nicolae, călăuza noastră de ocazie. Aici ne-am readus aminte de versurile împărătesei care descriu natura ce se trezeşte la viaţă:\r\n\r\nStejarii foşnesc misterios,\r\nLa fel ca fagii ei şoptesc.\r\nPăsările pădurii se trezesc,\r\nCiripesc vesele şi râd.\r\nDin pădure răsună vuietul\r\nApei, în care trăiesc nimfele.\r\n\r\nDupă urcuşul prin pădure, în faţa noastră se deschide Poiana Lungă, un platou înconjurat de păduri. În faţa ochilor luminat de soarele dimineţii, se ridică Vârful Arjana, pe care Sisi îl vede ca un templu:\r\n\r\nVulturii înconjoară înălţimile,\r\nCa să descopere soarele.\r\nAcolo sus, în fortăreaţa de piatră, pluteşte,\r\nAsemenea unui cuib de păsări răpitoare,\r\nÎnconjurat de pini şi brazi,\r\nUn templu, luminat de licăririle dimineţii.\r\n\r\nSus, în poiană o altă surpriză. Ajungând la conacul lui Nicolae, unde are o livadă de meri şi peri, privirile ne sunt atrase de rodul bogat al pomilor în jurul cărora erau covoare de un roşu sau auriu incredibil de adevărat şi natural. Nu puteam călca în jurul pomilor de atâta rod. Gândul mă duce din nou la împărăteasă care, inspirată de aceste imagini de vis, scria aceste versuri în jurnalul ei intim:\r\n\r\nAstfel trec minute, secunde,\r\nOrele, chiar, se grăbesc.\r\nSoarele îşi lasă razele strălucitoare\r\nSă cadă pe acoperişul templului.\r\nFagii îţi fac semne ademenitoare,\r\nSă cauţi la ei umbra răcoritoare.\r\nCât de puternici totuşi privesc,\r\nLa cerul albastru, ceresc.\r\nOcrotită de frunzişul îmbelşugat,\r\nNoaptea este verde-ntunecată doar aici.\r\nPrin aceste spaţii străvezii,\r\nPăzită de umbra copacilor,\r\nSe plimbă Titania-ndelung,\r\n\r\nÎnsoţită de cântecul păsărilor. Departe de eticheta curţii imperiale, Elisabeta trăieşte din plin armonia naturii. Întâlnirea cu un cioban cu oile, care-i dăruieşte lapte proaspăt muls, o trezeşte din starea de reverie:\r\nDar la venirea serii\r\nSe-apropie păstorul cu oile şi mieii.\r\nEi poposesc în Poiana Lungă;\r\nO aşteaptă aici, la adăpat, pe Titania.\r\nEa pune evantaiul în dreapta,\r\nPăstorul îi umple paharul\r\nPlin de lichid înspumat, parfumat\r\nDe tăria ierburilor, a rădăcinilor.\r\nEl mai goleşte-odată ugerul oilor,\r\nCât de bine e după căldura\r\nZilei, să te înviorezi cu băutura;\r\nEa mulţumeşte zâmbind băiatului.\r\nDrept mulţumire-i dă o monedă de aur,\r\nEl însă zice: „Mai zăboveşte dar\r\nPrin aste păduri şi munţi,\r\n\r\nDomnul să te conducă şi să te-ntărească.Umbrele serii o determină pe împărăteasă să părăsescă, cu regret acest loc de vis:Coboară iar în valea cea întunecată\r\nŞi Luna o-nsoţeşte iar;\r\nLumina ei de-argint, drept călăuză,\r\n\r\nO însoţeşte pe potecă.Părăsim Poiana Lungă. Trecem pe lângă o turmă de oi. Ne reîntoarcem acasă, la familia Nicolae Novăcescu. Ne pregătim bagajul pentru a ne reîntoarce la Herculane. Promitem gazdelor că vom reveni.

De Poiana Lungă am aflat din poezia întitulată astfel, scrisă de împărăteasa Elisabeta, legendara Sisi.\n\nStând de vorbă cu profesorul pensionar, Iancu Feneşan - păstrător al inelului împărătesei, dăruit străbunicului lui, Mihail Feneşan, inel pe care revista Traveller Magazin l-a prezentat în premieră -, am aflat că Poiana Lungă este un cătun al comunei Cornereva, din Munţii Cernei, la vreo 15 – 20 de kilometri de Bogâltin. Şi aşa am ajuns, după mai bine de trei ore de urcat, călăuzit de Ana Maria şi Ilie, doi fii ai muntelui, la poalele Muntelui Arjana, unde se află Poiana Lungă.\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_32\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"224\" caption=\"Imparateasa Sisi\"][/caption]\n\nAm tras la familia Novăcescu, în creierul munţilor, în zona numită Bedina. Localitatea se numeşte Poiana Lungă. Vârful Arjana (1512 m), se înalţă semeţ în stânga noastră, iar undeva mai jos, izvorăşte zglobiu pârâul Bedina ce se varsă în Cerna. Nicolae Novăcescu, gazda noastră, bun gospodar, ca orice om de munte, se pricepe la multe: să facă “toble” (scânduri) cu drujba, scaune din bardă, să zidească, să pună gresie şi faianţă, să producă energie electrică cu un generator acţionat de apa muntelui, să tragă apă în casă, într-un cuvânt să convieţuiască armonios cu natura. Asediaţi de mere roşii şi pere aurii, Novăcescu îmi prezintă familia: soţia sa, Maria, Daniel, un băieţel voinic de 4 ani, Ilie, băiatul cel mare, de 14 ani şi Ana–Maria, fata de 18 ani, elevă la Colegiul Hercules din Băile Herculane.\n\nIntru în vorbă cu Nicolae Novăcescu. Încerc să-i înţeleg resorturile intime prin care reuşeşte, din munca lui, să-şi întreţină o familie numeroasă şi să-şi facă o casă “care se învârte după soare”, după gusturile şi ideile pe care Ana–Maria ştie să le impună tuturor membrilor familiei. Mă uit la peisajul generos luminat de razele calde ale unei toamne târzii, adăpostit ca într-o căldare de către Vârful Arjana şi de Geanţurile Bedinei. În zare, dincolo de Valea Cernei, se zăresc pereţii de calcar ai Munţilor Mehedinţi. Mă gândesc ce aş mai putea să vorbesc cu acest om, care în două vorbe scurte m-a făcut să înţeleg filozofia lui de viaţă. Mi-a vorbit de vecinul cel mai apropiat, moşu Lazăr Rădoi, de 70 de ani, care stă cu baba lui la circa o jumate de oră de mers de la casa sa. Mi-a povestit cum, atunci când a montat generatorul de curent pe pârâul Bedina, i-a tras şi vecinului său un cablu ca să aibă curent şi lumină la bătrâneţe. Un fapt normal între doi vecini. Aici sus, în singurătatea munţilor, gesturile şi omenia au altă greutate.\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_33\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Imparateasa Sisi\"][/caption]\n\n- Aţi avut oaspeţi aici, în creierul munţilor?

Dar au venit şi excursionişti, cu motociclete, cu ATV-uri, pe drumul de la Bogâltin. Am avut acum o vreme, două persoane din Germania, unul cu o mototcicletă şi unul cu ATV–ul. Îmi aduc aminte, ploia, erau uzi bine. Le-am zis, mai mult prin semne: “Haidaţi, să dormiţi la mine!”. Le-am dat să mănânce. M-au filmat, aveau un aparat.

A doua zi, m-am trezit de dimineaţă, cu gândul la “Poiana Lungă” şi la “Cracu Împărătesei”. Am coborât într-o vale, după care am început să urcăm printr-o pădure de conifere, însoţiţi de Nicolae, călăuza noastră de ocazie. Aici ne-am readus aminte de versurile împărătesei care descriu natura ce se trezeşte la viaţă:\n\nStejarii foşnesc misterios,\nLa fel ca fagii ei şoptesc.\nPăsările pădurii se trezesc,\nCiripesc vesele şi râd.\nDin pădure răsună vuietul\nApei, în care trăiesc nimfele.\n\nDupă urcuşul prin pădure, în faţa noastră se deschide Poiana Lungă, un platou înconjurat de păduri. În faţa ochilor luminat de soarele dimineţii, se ridică Vârful Arjana, pe care Sisi îl vede ca un templu:\n\nVulturii înconjoară înălţimile,\nCa să descopere soarele.\nAcolo sus, în fortăreaţa de piatră, pluteşte,\nAsemenea unui cuib de păsări răpitoare,\nÎnconjurat de pini şi brazi,\nUn templu, luminat de licăririle dimineţii.\n\nSus, în poiană o altă surpriză. Ajungând la conacul lui Nicolae, unde are o livadă de meri şi peri, privirile ne sunt atrase de rodul bogat al pomilor în jurul cărora erau covoare de un roşu sau auriu incredibil de adevărat şi natural. Nu puteam călca în jurul pomilor de atâta rod. Gândul mă duce din nou la împărăteasă care, inspirată de aceste imagini de vis, scria aceste versuri în jurnalul ei intim:\n\nAstfel trec minute, secunde,\nOrele, chiar, se grăbesc.\nSoarele îşi lasă razele strălucitoare\nSă cadă pe acoperişul templului.\nFagii îţi fac semne ademenitoare,\nSă cauţi la ei umbra răcoritoare.\nCât de puternici totuşi privesc,\nLa cerul albastru, ceresc.\nOcrotită de frunzişul îmbelşugat,\nNoaptea este verde-ntunecată doar aici.\nPrin aceste spaţii străvezii,\nPăzită de umbra copacilor,\nSe plimbă Titania-ndelung,\n\nÎnsoţită de cântecul păsărilor. Departe de eticheta curţii imperiale, Elisabeta trăieşte din plin armonia naturii. Întâlnirea cu un cioban cu oile, care-i dăruieşte lapte proaspăt muls, o trezeşte din starea de reverie:\nDar la venirea serii\nSe-apropie păstorul cu oile şi mieii.\nEi poposesc în Poiana Lungă;\nO aşteaptă aici, la adăpat, pe Titania.\nEa pune evantaiul în dreapta,\nPăstorul îi umple paharul\nPlin de lichid înspumat, parfumat\nDe tăria ierburilor, a rădăcinilor.\nEl mai goleşte-odată ugerul oilor,\nCât de bine e după căldura\nZilei, să te înviorezi cu băutura;\nEa mulţumeşte zâmbind băiatului.\nDrept mulţumire-i dă o monedă de aur,\nEl însă zice: „Mai zăboveşte dar\nPrin aste păduri şi munţi,\n\nDomnul să te conducă şi să te-ntărească.Umbrele serii o determină pe împărăteasă să părăsescă, cu regret acest loc de vis:Coboară iar în valea cea întunecată\nŞi Luna o-nsoţeşte iar;\nLumina ei de-argint, drept călăuză,\n\nO însoţeşte pe potecă.Părăsim Poiana Lungă.

În faţa ochilor luminat de soarele dimineţii, se ridică Vârful Arjana, pe care Sisi îl vede ca un templu:\r\n\r\nVulturii înconjoară înălţimile,\r\nCa să descopere soarele.\r\nAcolo sus, în fortăreaţa de piatră, pluteşte,\r\nAsemenea unui cuib de păsări răpitoare,\r\nÎnconjurat de pini şi brazi,\r\nUn templu, luminat de licăririle dimineţii.\r\n\r\nSus, în poiană o altă surpriză. Ajungând la conacul lui Nicolae, unde are o livadă de meri şi peri, privirile ne sunt atrase de rodul bogat al pomilor în jurul cărora erau covoare de un roşu sau auriu incredibil de adevărat şi natural. Nu puteam călca în jurul pomilor de atâta rod. Gândul mă duce din nou la împărăteasă care, inspirată de aceste imagini de vis, scria aceste versuri în jurnalul ei intim:\r\n\r\nAstfel trec minute, secunde,\r\nOrele, chiar, se grăbesc.\r\nSoarele îşi lasă razele strălucitoare\r\nSă cadă pe acoperişul templului.\r\nFagii îţi fac semne ademenitoare,\r\nSă cauţi la ei umbra răcoritoare.\r\nCât de puternici totuşi privesc,\r\nLa cerul albastru, ceresc.\r\nOcrotită de frunzişul îmbelşugat,\r\nNoaptea este verde-ntunecată doar aici.\r\nPrin aceste spaţii străvezii,\r\nPăzită de umbra copacilor,\r\nSe plimbă Titania-ndelung,\r\n\r\nÎnsoţită de cântecul păsărilor. Departe de eticheta curţii imperiale, Elisabeta trăieşte din plin armonia naturii. Întâlnirea cu un cioban cu oile, care-i dăruieşte lapte proaspăt muls, o trezeşte din starea de reverie:\r\nDar la venirea serii\r\nSe-apropie păstorul cu oile şi mieii.\r\nEi poposesc în Poiana Lungă;\r\nO aşteaptă aici, la adăpat, pe Titania.\r\nEa pune evantaiul în dreapta,\r\nPăstorul îi umple paharul\r\nPlin de lichid înspumat, parfumat\r\nDe tăria ierburilor, a rădăcinilor.\r\nEl mai goleşte-odată ugerul oilor,\r\nCât de bine e după căldura\r\nZilei, să te înviorezi cu băutura;\r\nEa mulţumeşte zâmbind băiatului.\r\nDrept mulţumire-i dă o monedă de aur,\r\nEl însă zice: „Mai zăboveşte dar\r\nPrin aste păduri şi munţi,\r\n\r\nDomnul să te conducă şi să te-ntărească.Umbrele serii o determină pe împărăteasă să părăsescă, cu regret acest loc de vis:Coboară iar în valea cea întunecată\r\nŞi Luna o-nsoţeşte iar;\r\nLumina ei de-argint, drept călăuză,\r\n\r\nO însoţeşte pe potecă.Părăsim Poiana Lungă. Trecem pe lângă o turmă de oi. Ne reîntoarcem acasă, la familia Nicolae Novăcescu. Ne pregătim bagajul pentru a ne reîntoarce la Herculane. Promitem gazdelor că vom reveni. Plecăm din aceste locuri cu oameni minunaţi. În urma noastră parcă auzim foşnind pe covorul din frunze galbele şi roşii, paşii împărătesei Elisabeta. Auzim oare, poezia istoriei?\r\n\r\nDORIN BĂLTEANU','Pe urmele imparatesei Sisi','','inherit','open','open','','100-revision-3','','','2011-03-11 14:12:11','2011-03-11 12:12:11','',100,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/11/100-revision-3/',0,'revision','',0),(105,1,'2011-03-11 12:55:18','2011-03-11 10:55:18','Cine lasa usile deschise in turism!\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_23\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"213\" caption=\"Cine lasa usile deschise in turism!\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nO carte de 24 de carate despre viata secreta a hotelierilor. 180 de pagini, 35 de lei.\r\n\r\nComenzi la e-mail: editor@travellermagazin.ro\r\n\r\n ','Carti publicate de Covexus 2000','','inherit','open','open','','72-revision-5','','','2011-03-11 12:55:18','2011-03-11 10:55:18','',72,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/11/72-revision-5/',0,'revision','',0),(106,1,'2011-03-11 14:23:48','2011-03-11 12:23:48','Cine lasa usile deschise in turism!\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_23\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"213\" caption=\"Cine lasa usile deschise in turism!\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nO carte de 24 de carate despre viata secreta a hotelierilor. 180 de pagini, 35 de lei.\r\n\r\nComenzi la e-mail: editor@travellermagazin.ro\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n....................................................................................................\r\n\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_25\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"200\" caption=\"In cautarea lupilor tineri\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nIn cautarea lupilor tineri - dupa 10 ani\r\nCărţile lupilor tineri sunt o incursiune fascinantă în viaţa privată a agenţiilor de turism. 290 de pagini, 35 de lei.

S-a lansat într-o o cascadă de gafe, sancţionată cu indulgenţă de consultanţii, proprietarii de agenţii sau de hoteluri prezenţi în sală. Aflat la un simpozion cu tema „Viitorul Turismului Românesc. Strategia digitală de promovare a României” ministrul Elena Udrea a epatat prin afirmaţii şocante. Preocupată de viitorul promovării ţării noastre pe Facebook, şi nu e nimic rău în asta, doamna Udrea a anunţat mai întâi un mare succes. A desfiinţat 7 din cele 17 birouri de turism din străinătate pentru că nu s-au dovedit eficiente. „Am economisit un milion de euro pe an, prin închiderea lor”. După părerea domniei sale azi nu mai intră nimeni în aceste Oficii naţionale de promovare. După umila noastră părere nu birourile ci majoritatea celor care au fost angajaţi să ducă această muncă reprezentativă pentru o ţară, poartă vina că România nu creşte în vizibilitate. Iar cei câţiva profesionişti, fac ce pot în comparaţie cu omologii din alte ţări, pentru că nu au bugete pentru manifestări. S-au plafonat. Au devenit simpli funcţionari care aprind luminile doar când vine să participe la vreun Târg internaţional de turism, o oficialitate a ministerului. Apoi lumina se stinge până la următorul spectacol. Da, e o performanţă, ţara a economisit un milion de euro, dar o singură dată. Urmează să fie risipite zeci de milioane, pentru prezenţe turistice în străinătate organizate la preţul... cel mai mic. ![\"Coperta](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Coperta-82.jpg\" "\\"Coperta")
Doamna ministru a a anunţat că a găsit soluţia pentru a înlocui rolul acestor birouri, şi ca atare se gândeşte să le desfiinţeze şi pe celelalte 10. Facebook, va face minuni, şi va relansa cu costuri mici, interesul uriaş al străinilor pentru ţara noastră. Ne-ar mai rămâne doar să ne pregătim graniţele şi aeroporturile pentru a fluidiza intrările masive ale acestora.\r\n\r\nAbsolutizarea Facebook, care este doar un instrument de marketing, l-a făcut pe unul dintre invitaţi - Scott Gallacher -, managing director The Aston Group, să tempereze avântul declaraţiilor. Facebook nu este o soluţie universală, care le înlocuieşte pe celelalte, electronice ori tradiţionale. Sistemul oferă oportunităţi nelimitate şi pentru promovarea turistică. Este, într-adevăr, ceva fabulos să poţi trimite mesaje la peste 243 de milioane de clienţi care consumă lunar pe platforma de socializare circa 500 de bilioane de minute. Dar trebuie să fim sinceri şi realişti. Călătorii au nevoie de emoţie, de gust, de atmosfera pe care nu ţi-o poate oferi informaţia electronică. Românii au poveşti minunate, dar trebuie să ştiţi să le spuneţi.

Preocupată de viitorul promovării ţării noastre pe Facebook, şi nu e nimic rău în asta, doamna Udrea a anunţat mai întâi un mare succes. A desfiinţat 7 din cele 17 birouri de turism din străinătate pentru că nu s-au dovedit eficiente. „Am economisit un milion de euro pe an, prin închiderea lor”. După părerea domniei sale azi nu mai intră nimeni în aceste Oficii naţionale de promovare. După umila noastră părere nu birourile ci majoritatea celor care au fost angajaţi să ducă această muncă reprezentativă pentru o ţară, poartă vina că România nu creşte în vizibilitate. Iar cei câţiva profesionişti, fac ce pot în comparaţie cu omologii din alte ţări, pentru că nu au bugete pentru manifestări. S-au plafonat. Au devenit simpli funcţionari care aprind luminile doar când vine să participe la vreun Târg internaţional de turism, o oficialitate a ministerului. Apoi lumina se stinge până la următorul spectacol. Da, e o performanţă, ţara a economisit un milion de euro, dar o singură dată. Urmează să fie risipite zeci de milioane, pentru prezenţe turistice în străinătate organizate la preţul... cel mai mic. Doamna ministru a a anunţat că a găsit soluţia pentru a înlocui rolul acestor birouri, şi ca atare se gândeşte să le desfiinţeze şi pe celelalte 10. Facebook, va face minuni, şi va relansa cu costuri mici, interesul uriaş al străinilor pentru ţara noastră. Ne-ar mai rămâne doar să ne pregătim graniţele şi aeroporturile pentru a fluidiza intrările masive ale acestora.\n\nAbsolutizarea Facebook, care este doar un instrument de marketing, l-a făcut pe unul dintre invitaţi - Scott Gallacher -, managing director The Aston Group, să tempereze avântul declaraţiilor. Facebook nu este o soluţie universală, care le înlocuieşte pe celelalte, electronice ori tradiţionale. Sistemul oferă oportunităţi nelimitate şi pentru promovarea turistică. Este, într-adevăr, ceva fabulos să poţi trimite mesaje la peste 243 de milioane de clienţi care consumă lunar pe platforma de socializare circa 500 de bilioane de minute. Dar trebuie să fim sinceri şi realişti. Călătorii au nevoie de emoţie, de gust, de atmosfera pe care nu ţi-o poate oferi informaţia electronică. Românii au poveşti minunate, dar trebuie să ştiţi să le spuneţi. Pentru aceasta aveţi nevoie de scriitori de poveşti.\n\n(Nr. 82, Ianuarie 2010)\n\n \n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\n\n ','Facebook e doar un instrument ','','inherit','open','open','','121-revision','','','2011-03-15 16:22:07','2011-03-15 14:22:07','',121,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/121-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(115,2,'2011-03-11 14:43:39','2011-03-11 12:43:39','Holiday Market 2011','Holiday Market 2011','Holiday Market 2011','inherit','open','open','','holiday_market2011','','','2011-03-11 14:43:39','2011-03-11 12:43:39','',114,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/holiday_market2011.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(116,2,'2011-03-11 14:42:53','2011-03-11 12:42:53','Comunicat de presa\n\n \n\n \n\n \n\nA a doua editie a Targului International de Turism Holiday Market, organizat de A.N.A.T., isi va deschide portile in perioada 17 - 20 martie 2011, la Palatul Parlamentului, sub sloganul \"o 9atitudine in turism !\" si avand ca parteneri Primaria Generala Bucuresti si A.N.P.C.P.P.S.R.

Aflat la un simpozion cu tema „Viitorul Turismului Românesc. Strategia digitală de promovare a României” ministrul Elena Udrea a epatat prin afirmaţii şocante. Preocupată de viitorul promovării ţării noastre pe Facebook, şi nu e nimic rău în asta, doamna Udrea a anunţat mai întâi un mare succes. A desfiinţat 7 din cele 17 birouri de turism din străinătate pentru că nu s-au dovedit eficiente. „Am economisit un milion de euro pe an, prin închiderea lor”. După părerea domniei sale azi nu mai intră nimeni în aceste Oficii naţionale de promovare. După umila noastră părere nu birourile ci majoritatea celor care au fost angajaţi să ducă această muncă reprezentativă pentru o ţară, poartă vina că România nu creşte în vizibilitate. Iar cei câţiva profesionişti, fac ce pot în comparaţie cu omologii din alte ţări, pentru că nu au bugete pentru manifestări. S-au plafonat. Au devenit simpli funcţionari care aprind luminile doar când vine să participe la vreun Târg internaţional de turism, o oficialitate a ministerului. Apoi lumina se stinge până la următorul spectacol. Da, e o performanţă, ţara a economisit un milion de euro, dar o singură dată. Urmează să fie risipite zeci de milioane, pentru prezenţe turistice în străinătate organizate la preţul... cel mai mic. Doamna ministru a a anunţat că a găsit soluţia pentru a înlocui rolul acestor birouri, şi ca atare se gândeşte să le desfiinţeze şi pe celelalte 10. Facebook, va face minuni, şi va relansa cu costuri mici, interesul uriaş al străinilor pentru ţara noastră. Ne-ar mai rămâne doar să ne pregătim graniţele şi aeroporturile pentru a fluidiza intrările masive ale acestora.\n\nAbsolutizarea Facebook, care este doar un instrument de marketing, l-a făcut pe unul dintre invitaţi - Scott Gallacher -, managing director The Aston Group, să tempereze avântul declaraţiilor. Facebook nu este o soluţie universală, care le înlocuieşte pe celelalte, electronice ori tradiţionale. Sistemul oferă oportunităţi nelimitate şi pentru promovarea turistică. Este, într-adevăr, ceva fabulos să poţi trimite mesaje la peste 243 de milioane de clienţi care consumă lunar pe platforma de socializare circa 500 de bilioane de minute. Dar trebuie să fim sinceri şi realişti. Călătorii au nevoie de emoţie, de gust, de atmosfera pe care nu ţi-o poate oferi informaţia electronică. Românii au poveşti minunate, dar trebuie să ştiţi să le spuneţi. Pentru aceasta aveţi nevoie de scriitori de poveşti.\n\n(Nr. 82, Ianuarie 2010)\n\n \n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\n\n ','Facebook e doar un instrument ','','inherit','open','open','','121-autosave','','','2011-03-15 17:43:17','2011-03-15 15:43:17','',121,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/121-autosave/',0,'revision','',0),(124,1,'2011-03-15 16:23:40','2011-03-15 14:23:40','S-a lansat într-o o cascadă de gafe, sancţionată cu indulgenţă de consultanţii, proprietarii de agenţii sau de hoteluri prezenţi în sală.

După umila noastră părere nu birourile ci majoritatea celor care au fost angajaţi să ducă această muncă reprezentativă pentru o ţară, poartă vina că România nu creşte în vizibilitate. Iar cei câţiva profesionişti, fac ce pot în comparaţie cu omologii din alte ţări, pentru că nu au bugete pentru manifestări. S-au plafonat. Au devenit simpli funcţionari care aprind luminile doar când vine să participe la vreun Târg internaţional de turism, o oficialitate a ministerului. Apoi lumina se stinge până la următorul spectacol. Da, e o performanţă, ţara a economisit un milion de euro, dar o singură dată. Urmează să fie risipite zeci de milioane, pentru prezenţe turistice în străinătate organizate la preţul... cel mai mic. Doamna ministru a a anunţat că a găsit soluţia pentru a înlocui rolul acestor birouri, şi ca atare se gândeşte să le desfiinţeze şi pe celelalte 10. Facebook, va face minuni, şi va relansa cu costuri mici, interesul uriaş al străinilor pentru ţara noastră. Ne-ar mai rămâne doar să ne pregătim graniţele şi aeroporturile pentru a fluidiza intrările masive ale acestora.\r\n\r\nAbsolutizarea Facebook, care este doar un instrument de marketing, l-a făcut pe unul dintre invitaţi - Scott Gallacher -, managing director The Aston Group, să tempereze avântul declaraţiilor. Facebook nu este o soluţie universală, care le înlocuieşte pe celelalte, electronice ori tradiţionale. Sistemul oferă oportunităţi nelimitate şi pentru promovarea turistică. Este, într-adevăr, ceva fabulos să poţi trimite mesaje la peste 243 de milioane de clienţi care consumă lunar pe platforma de socializare circa 500 de bilioane de minute. Dar trebuie să fim sinceri şi realişti. Călătorii au nevoie de emoţie, de gust, de atmosfera pe care nu ţi-o poate oferi informaţia electronică. Românii au poveşti minunate, dar trebuie să ştiţi să le spuneţi. Pentru aceasta aveţi nevoie de scriitori de poveşti.\r\n\r\n(Nr. 82, Ianuarie 2010)\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n ','Facebook e doar un instrument ','','inherit','open','open','','121-revision-2','','','2011-03-15 16:23:40','2011-03-15 14:23:40','',121,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/121-revision-2/',0,'revision','',0),(125,1,'2011-03-11 14:15:08','2011-03-11 12:15:08','PE URMELE IMPARATESEI SISI\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_34\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Imparateasa Sisi\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nLa Poiana Lungă s-a scris o poezie a istoriei\r\n\r\nÎntr-o sâmbătă frumoasă de noiembrie ruginiu, ne-am hotărât plecăm într-o excursie pe Valea Cernei, într-un cătun izolat de munte, Poiana Lungă. De Poiana Lungă am aflat din poezia întitulată astfel, scrisă de împărăteasa Elisabeta, legendara Sisi.\r\n\r\nStând de vorbă cu profesorul pensionar, Iancu Feneşan - păstrător al inelului împărătesei, dăruit străbunicului lui, Mihail Feneşan, inel pe care revista Traveller Magazin l-a prezentat în premieră -, am aflat că Poiana Lungă este un cătun al comunei Cornereva, din Munţii Cernei, la vreo 15 – 20 de kilometri de Bogâltin. Şi aşa am ajuns, după mai bine de trei ore de urcat, călăuzit de Ana Maria şi Ilie, doi fii ai muntelui, la poalele Muntelui Arjana, unde se află Poiana Lungă.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_32\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"224\" caption=\"Imparateasa Sisi\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nAm tras la familia Novăcescu, în creierul munţilor, în zona numită Bedina. Localitatea se numeşte Poiana Lungă. Vârful Arjana (1512 m), se înalţă semeţ în stânga noastră, iar undeva mai jos, izvorăşte zglobiu pârâul Bedina ce se varsă în Cerna. Nicolae Novăcescu, gazda noastră, bun gospodar, ca orice om de munte, se pricepe la multe: să facă “toble” (scânduri) cu drujba, scaune din bardă, să zidească, să pună gresie şi faianţă, să producă energie electrică cu un generator acţionat de apa muntelui, să tragă apă în casă, într-un cuvânt să convieţuiască armonios cu natura. Asediaţi de mere roşii şi pere aurii, Novăcescu îmi prezintă familia: soţia sa, Maria, Daniel, un băieţel voinic de 4 ani, Ilie, băiatul cel mare, de 14 ani şi Ana–Maria, fata de 18 ani, elevă la Colegiul Hercules din Băile Herculane.\r\n\r\nIntru în vorbă cu Nicolae Novăcescu. Încerc să-i înţeleg resorturile intime prin care reuşeşte, din munca lui, să-şi întreţină o familie numeroasă şi să-şi facă o casă “care se învârte după soare”, după gusturile şi ideile pe care Ana–Maria ştie să le impună tuturor membrilor familiei. Mă uit la peisajul generos luminat de razele calde ale unei toamne târzii, adăpostit ca într-o căldare de către Vârful Arjana şi de Geanţurile Bedinei. În zare, dincolo de Valea Cernei, se zăresc pereţii de calcar ai Munţilor Mehedinţi. Mă gândesc ce aş mai putea să vorbesc cu acest om, care în două vorbe scurte m-a făcut să înţeleg filozofia lui de viaţă. Mi-a vorbit de vecinul cel mai apropiat, moşu Lazăr Rădoi, de 70 de ani, care stă cu baba lui la circa o jumate de oră de mers de la casa sa. Mi-a povestit cum, atunci când a montat generatorul de curent pe pârâul Bedina, i-a tras şi vecinului său un cablu ca să aibă curent şi lumină la bătrâneţe. Un fapt normal între doi vecini. Aici sus, în singurătatea munţilor, gesturile şi omenia au altă greutate.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_33\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Imparateasa Sisi\"][/caption]\r\n\r\n- Aţi avut oaspeţi aici, în creierul munţilor? Îi cunoşteai sau au venit întâmplător?\r\n- Da, or venit din Oradea, Timişoara, Oţelu Roşu, Ploieşti, chiar Germania. Dar au venit şi excursionişti, cu motociclete, cu ATV-uri, pe drumul de la Bogâltin. Am avut acum o vreme, două persoane din Germania, unul cu o mototcicletă şi unul cu ATV–ul. Îmi aduc aminte, ploia, erau uzi bine. Le-am zis, mai mult prin semne: “Haidaţi, să dormiţi la mine!”. Le-am dat să mănânce. M-au filmat, aveau un aparat. Dimineaţa ar fi vrut să-mi dea un ban că au mâncat, au dormit, erau bucuroşi că au găsit un adăpost. Da eu nu am vrut să iau nimic, nu prea luăm noi.\r\n\r\n- Mai ştii vre-un traseu, de aici la Băile Herculane?- Păi ştiu că bunicul nevesti-mi cobora în fiecare an, primăvara de Paşti, cu mieii în Platoul Coronini. Aveam o rudă acolo unde veneau clienţii şi luau miei de acolo. Din Platoul Coronini se urca în culmea muntelui până la Iarba moale şi de acolo, imediat, se cobora în Poiana Lungă. Imediat după coasta aceea, după ce se urcă pe Cracu Împărătesei se ajunge la Poiana Lungă, cam în zece minute.\r\n\r\nCracu Împărătesei! Simt cum oboseala celor trei ore de urcuş se topeşte. Bucuria certitudinii îmi luminează dintr-o dată, faţa. Sentimentul pe care l-am trăit, la auzul acestor cuvinte a fost asemănător cu cel trăit la descoperirea versurilor scrise de împărăteasa Elisabeta despre Băile Herculane, la Viena. În sfârşit, aveam încă o dovadă a excursiilor împărătesei prin aceste locuri. Trecere care avea să fie observată de locuitorii zonei ce au dat numele de “Cracu Împărătesei” locului în care îi plăcea împărătesei să se plimbe şi care, probabil, i-a inspirat scrierea poeziei “Poiana Lungă”. A doua zi, m-am trezit de dimineaţă, cu gândul la “Poiana Lungă” şi la “Cracu Împărătesei”. Am coborât într-o vale, după care am început să urcăm printr-o pădure de conifere, însoţiţi de Nicolae, călăuza noastră de ocazie. Aici ne-am readus aminte de versurile împărătesei care descriu natura ce se trezeşte la viaţă:\r\n\r\nStejarii foşnesc misterios,\r\nLa fel ca fagii ei şoptesc.\r\nPăsările pădurii se trezesc,\r\nCiripesc vesele şi râd.\r\nDin pădure răsună vuietul\r\nApei, în care trăiesc nimfele.\r\n\r\nDupă urcuşul prin pădure, în faţa noastră se deschide Poiana Lungă, un platou înconjurat de păduri. În faţa ochilor luminat de soarele dimineţii, se ridică Vârful Arjana, pe care Sisi îl vede ca un templu:\r\n\r\nVulturii înconjoară înălţimile,\r\nCa să descopere soarele.\r\nAcolo sus, în fortăreaţa de piatră, pluteşte,\r\nAsemenea unui cuib de păsări răpitoare,\r\nÎnconjurat de pini şi brazi,\r\nUn templu, luminat de licăririle dimineţii.\r\n\r\nSus, în poiană o altă surpriză. Ajungând la conacul lui Nicolae, unde are o livadă de meri şi peri, privirile ne sunt atrase de rodul bogat al pomilor în jurul cărora erau covoare de un roşu sau auriu incredibil de adevărat şi natural. Nu puteam călca în jurul pomilor de atâta rod. Gândul mă duce din nou la împărăteasă care, inspirată de aceste imagini de vis, scria aceste versuri în jurnalul ei intim:\r\n\r\nAstfel trec minute, secunde,\r\nOrele, chiar, se grăbesc.\r\nSoarele îşi lasă razele strălucitoare\r\nSă cadă pe acoperişul templului.\r\nFagii îţi fac semne ademenitoare,\r\nSă cauţi la ei umbra răcoritoare.\r\nCât de puternici totuşi privesc,\r\nLa cerul albastru, ceresc.\r\nOcrotită de frunzişul îmbelşugat,\r\nNoaptea este verde-ntunecată doar aici.\r\nPrin aceste spaţii străvezii,\r\nPăzită de umbra copacilor,\r\nSe plimbă Titania-ndelung,\r\n\r\nÎnsoţită de cântecul păsărilor. Departe de eticheta curţii imperiale, Elisabeta trăieşte din plin armonia naturii. Întâlnirea cu un cioban cu oile, care-i dăruieşte lapte proaspăt muls, o trezeşte din starea de reverie:\r\nDar la venirea serii\r\nSe-apropie păstorul cu oile şi mieii.\r\nEi poposesc în Poiana Lungă;\r\nO aşteaptă aici, la adăpat, pe Titania.\r\nEa pune evantaiul în dreapta,\r\nPăstorul îi umple paharul\r\nPlin de lichid înspumat, parfumat\r\nDe tăria ierburilor, a rădăcinilor.\r\nEl mai goleşte-odată ugerul oilor,\r\nCât de bine e după căldura\r\nZilei, să te înviorezi cu băutura;\r\nEa mulţumeşte zâmbind băiatului.\r\nDrept mulţumire-i dă o monedă de aur,\r\nEl însă zice: „Mai zăboveşte dar\r\nPrin aste păduri şi munţi,\r\n\r\nDomnul să te conducă şi să te-ntărească.Umbrele serii o determină pe împărăteasă să părăsescă, cu regret acest loc de vis:Coboară iar în valea cea întunecată\r\nŞi Luna o-nsoţeşte iar;\r\nLumina ei de-argint, drept călăuză,\r\n\r\nO însoţeşte pe potecă.Părăsim Poiana Lungă. Trecem pe lângă o turmă de oi. Ne reîntoarcem acasă, la familia Nicolae Novăcescu. Ne pregătim bagajul pentru a ne reîntoarce la Herculane. Promitem gazdelor că vom reveni. Plecăm din aceste locuri cu oameni minunaţi. În urma noastră parcă auzim foşnind pe covorul din frunze galbele şi roşii, paşii împărătesei Elisabeta. Auzim oare, poezia istoriei?\r\n\r\nDORIN BĂLTEANU','Pe urmele imparatesei Sisi','','inherit','open','open','','100-revision-4','','','2011-03-11 14:15:08','2011-03-11 12:15:08','',100,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/11/100-revision-4/',0,'revision','',0),(126,1,'2011-03-11 13:56:41','2011-03-11 11:56:41','OLIMPIC INTERNATIONAL - 20 DE ANI!\r\n\r\nGEORGE SORIN NICOLESCU: “20 de ani sunt o felie de istorie!”\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_98\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"242\" caption=\"Olimpic International\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nOlimpic International Turism, marchează două decenii de activitate. În 1990 firma a început cu 5 oameni şi cu programe de incoming. Din 2000 agenţia s-a poziţionat puternic pe turismul de evenimente. La Olimpic lucrează azi 35 de specialişti. Aceştia au oferit de-a lungul celor 20 de ani, servicii şi asistenţă pentru circa 2.500.000 de clienţi. Adică, aproximativ echivalentul populaţiei Bucureştiului.\r\n\r\n- Sorin Nicolescu, aţi construit firma ca o afacere de familie, împreună cu soţia Mihaela Nicolescu, director de vânzări. Sunteţi preşedintele firmei. Doresc să aflu ce atuuri vă individualizează pe piaţă?\r\n\r\n- Nu un anumit produs, ci mobilitatea. Apoi diversificarea serviciilor. Numai aşa poţi face faţă creşterii şi descreşterii unui anumit domeniu. Au fost anumite perioade în care ticketingul a mers foarte bine, apoi incomingul, outgoingul ori turismul de evenimente pe care eu îl consider cel mai complex. Logic, ar urma întărirea activităţilor de incoming. Eu cred că legăturile între oameni consolidează relaţiile de afaceri şi zona corporate travel. E o investiţie, care acum cu nebunia internetului şi a mailului, mulţi au pierdut-o din vedere. Am inovat tot timpul şi am căutat nişe noi de piaţă. E unul dintre secretele noastre.\r\n\r\n- Cât de atractivă este România ca piaţă de evenimente?\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_97\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Olimpic International\"][/caption]\r\n\r\n- Amintesc doar câteva dintre mega-manifestările pe care le-a organizat ori le-am consolidat: Congresul Uniunii Mondiale a Poştelor (2004), cel mai marcant eveniment din România ultimilor 20 de ani, ce a reunit la Bucureşti peste 2000 de participanţi; Conferinţele regionale Dunărene (2002-2005), fiecare cu participări de circa 200 de experţi; Conferinţele naţionale şi internaţionale de drumuri, poduri şi autostrăzi (2006-2008), ce au atras între 350-500 de persoane pe ediţie; Conferinţele pe teme medicale, cele cu profil de IT şi comunicaţii; Forumul oamenilor de afaceri francofoni (2006) etc.\r\n\r\n- Nu mi-am propus să vorbim despre cifre, ci despre oameni. Cât de performantă este echipa pe care o conduceţi?\r\n\r\n- Avem o echipă de succes. Asta nu o spunem noi ci rezultatele obţinute de-a lungul anilor. Am fost aproape întotdeauna în poziţii de top. Ca o idee Olimpic Internaţional s-a aflat din 1995 până în 2007 pe primele două locuri la secţiunea de travel, în Topul CCIR. Am fost premiaţi şi pe plan internaţional cu Premiul European de Excelenţă, cu Steaua Calităţii, dar şi de către aproape toate organizaţiile de specialitate (Ministerul Turismului, ANAT, RCB, AOAR, ANEIR) şi de firmele noastre partenere, agenţii, companii hoteliere şi aeriene. Cred că am primit peste o sută de distincţii şi trofee. Mă şi gândesc, până acum nu am avut răgazul, să le strângem pe toate într-un mic muzeu. Cred că ar fi util pentru cei noi, dar şi pentru cei “clasici” deja, să ne reamintim de unde am pornit şi unde am ajuns. Pentru că vorbim de echipă trebuie să amintesc de “cărăuşii” firmei: Ştefan Şandor Mihaela, Alina Gheorghiescu, Roxana Dincă, Anca Grigorescu, Mihaela Nicolescu, motorul nostru de vânzări, Anca Taşbac, Cornelia Duţoiu, care dau greutate departamentului financiar-contabil, Mihai Buciuleac şi Emil Enache, oamenii cu care am pus pe picioare segmentul de transporturi, Emilia Dulapciu, Viorica Ionescu, Liliana Bangală, Elena Filiuţă ori Cristina Cotea. Noile valuri îi aduce în prim plan pe Cristina Ilie, Oana Bera, Simona Mocanca, Mihaela Anghel, Mihaela Tudor, cărora li se alătură Vasile Uţa, Mihai Muller, Oprişor Dumitru, George Enache, Iuliana Petre, Diana Costea, Nedescu Lucian, Alexandru Safciu, Ciuică Marian etc.\r\n\r\n- Cum vedeţi viitorul pieţii de travel din România?\r\n\r\n-Trebuie să insistăm pe segmentul de conferinţe. Avem un potenţial clar, real, avem Palatul Parlamentului, avem capacităţi turistice moderne. Putem face faţă unor manifestări care să atragă până la 5.000 de participanţi. Avem şi agenţii care au capacitatea de a organiza congrese, simpozioane, reuniuni internaţionale. În ceea ce ne priveşte, am reuşit în acest an să organizăm 11 evenimente, de la prezentări de vinuri până la parade de modă, la EXPO 2010 de la Shanghai, unde am asigurat servicii pentru circa 1.100 de turişti. Fiţi convinşi că o putem face cel puţin cu acelaşi succes şi în România.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANINESCU','Olimpic International 20 de ani','','inherit','open','open','','95-revision-3','','','2011-03-11 13:56:41','2011-03-11 11:56:41','',95,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/11/95-revision-3/',0,'revision','',0),(127,1,'2011-03-11 13:33:15','2011-03-11 11:33:15','\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_39\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"224\" caption=\"Iordania Petra\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nPETRA – Roz, Roz, Roz\r\nŞtiu! Când vă gândiţi la viaţa în roz imediat începeţi să fredonaţi cunoscutul şlagăr al artistei Edith Piaf şi vă ia un dor de ducă spre Paris. Există însă şi un alt loc care s-a transformat într-un magnet turistic în ultimul deceniu. Petra. Este, la propriu, un monument fabulos, legat sută la sută de culoarea roz. Se află în mijlocul deşertului iar imaginea de promovare turistică a Iordaniei este concentrată pe clădirea Tezaurului, primul loc care focalizează atenţia turistului.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCând ţi-ai fixat în gând să pleci spre Petra – cunoscut şi ca oraşul roz sau oraşul trandafiriu -, nu uita să-ţi iei aparatul de fotografiat şi să te înarmezi cu cel puţin doi litri de apă. Doar 260 de kilometri, la sud, despart cel mai faimos site arheologic al Iordaniei de capitala Amman şi numai 133 kilometri la nord, de oraşul-port Aqaba. Petra se află lângă oraşelul Wadi Musa. Circulaţia turistică a fost bine stimulată de către declararea acestui vestigiu valoare de patrimoniu mondial UNESCO. În plus, de anul trecut Petra, a devenit una dintre cele 7 Noi Minuni ale Lumii. Înainte de a pleca la drum mai ar trebui să şti că oraşul antic asigură o mare parte din veniturile turistice ale Iordaniei care strânge la buget anual circa 1 miliard de dolari din buzunarul călătorilor. E ceva, raportat la populaţia ţări ce se ridică la circa 6 milioane de locuitori.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_40\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Iordania Petra camile\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nSă nu vă credeţi la Viena!\r\nCe veţi găsi fascinant aici? Hai la drum! Moştenirea nabateenilor, un popor arab venit din sudul Iordaniei cu mai bine de circa 2.200 de ani în urmă se deschide generos în faţa ochilor turiştilor. E un loc de pelerinaj. Dar nu veţi aştepta prea mult la coadă. La intrare se află clădirea Centrului de Informare Turistică unde ţi se oferă gratuit un pliant tipărit în principalele limbi de circulaţie internaţională. Discret, ţi se atrage atenţia că dacă la sfârşitul vizitei nu mai ai nevoie de el îl poţi restitui în acelaşi loc. Chestiune de educaţie. Pentru că după tine vin alte zeci de mii de turişti care s-ar bucura să aibă un ghid de orientare. Zis şi făcut. Înainte de a intra în oraş comersanţii cu hainele lor colorate te îmbie cu tot felul de oferte. Dacă eşti tare la negocieri iată-te intrat în Petra îmbrăcat ca un localnic. Atenţie, de aici începe marele drum. Spun marele drum, pentru că el măsoară câţiva kilometri, dacă vrei să vezi cât mai multe. Eşti mai comod sau te deplasezi mai greu? Cu numai câţiva dolari, ai propria trăsură, sau o căruţă pe două roţi, cu umbrar. Ei, să nu vă credeţi la Viena! Sunteţi în deşert. Dar caii trag bine, şi în vreo 20 de minute ajungeţi în faţa clădirii Tezaurului. Dacă vă place să călăriţi vă aşteaptă, tot de închiriat, nişte cai pur sînge care în fuga lor îţi crează senzaţia unei răcoriri temporare. Poate doriţi cămile sau măgăruşi. Sunteţi servit.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_41\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"224\" caption=\"Iordania Petra vizita\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nPe urmele lui Burkhardt\r\nAjuns în inima Petrei rămâi impresionat. Cum probabil a rămas şi cercetătorul elveţian Johann Ludwig Burkhardt care a redescoperit oraşul în 1812. Nimeni nu a crezut că se poate întâmpla o asemenea minune, mai ales că aşezarea antică a nabateenilor era considerată doar o legendă piedută în... nisipurile istoriei. Burckhardt, bun cunscător al limbii arabe s-a deghizat în musulman şi a câştigat încrederea localnicilor. Ei l-au condus până la intrarea în defileu pe valea Bab as-Sique. De aici se deschide cartea de piatră în ale cărei pagini poţi urmări urmele vieţii săpate în stânci. Fascinaţia locului. Civilizaţii şi culturi suprapuse. Monumentele amintesc de stilurile greco-roman, egiptean ori mesopotamian. Până în inima vechiului oraş trebuie să străbaţi circa 1.200 de metri prin As Siq, un culoar săpat printre stânci înalte de peste 80 de metri. Când ridici ochii te ia ameţeala. Pe stânga şi pe dreapta observi sute de sculpturi în piatră maronie şi bej, ce amintesc de figurile unor zei, de lăcaşuri tombale, de pietre votive. Pe marginile Siq-ului se mai pot vedea încă, şanţurile canalului de colectare, folosit de nabateeni pentru a aduce apa până in inima Petrei. Ploile cădeau cam de două ori pe an dar nabateenii cunoşteau tehnica extragerii apei de la mari adâncimi. Asta le-a permis să poată construi şi locui în oraşul din mijlocul deşertului.\r\n\r\nTezaurul regilor sau al piraţilor ?\r\nPoţi afla şi mai multe dacă cumperi o broşură de la unul dintre copii care te aşteaptă pe stânci. La Al-Khazneh (Sala Tezaurului), te întâlneşti cu geniul arhitectural al nabateenilor care au tăiat în stânci o clădire impresionantă cu o faţadă de 43 de metri înalţime şi 30 de metri lăţime, cea mai elaborată, a oraşului antic. Monumentul îmbina elementele orientale cu cele de sorginte romană. Este locul cel mai fotografiat din Iordania. Stânca este la fel de spectaculoasă atât dimineaţa cât şi după amiaza, interval în care nuanţele de culoare ale acesteia se schimbă în permanenţă. Scopul ridicării monumentului rămâne un mister. Locul adăposteşte morminte regale. Dar denumirea a fost dată de legende conform cărora aici şi-ar fi ascuns piraţii comorile jefuite. Misterul trebuie întreţinut şi apărat. Ca urmare clădirea Tezaurului, este păzită zi şi noapte de soldaţi iordanieni, înarmaţi până în dinţi. Au o privire dură, ce parcă sugerează turiştilor să nu lase mizerie în urma lor. În realitate au funcţie turistică şi fac parte din decor. Ei acceptă cu plăcere să se fotografieze cu toţi copii, tinerii, ori călătorii fără vârstă, care s-au încumetat până aici. Merită toţi o asemenea recompensă.\r\n\r\nReligia turistului –800 de scări\r\nPentru că locul este şi o lecţie vie de istorie aici vin numeroşi tineri iordanieni de la şcoli, colegii ori universităţi. Le-am luat urma pentru că au fost foarte prietenoşi, şi împreună cu ei am pornit spre mormintele şi camerele tombale unde sunt adăpostite rămăşiţele unor mari demnitari nabateeni. Toate sunt săpate în stâncă, asemenea şi Palatului morţilor ai cărui pereţi tociţi, parcă au fost lustruiţi de furtunile de nisip. Ca şi mormântul lui Sextius Florentinus, guvernatorul roman al Arabiei care a dorit să fie înmormântat la Petra. El datează din perioada 126-130. Cei mai mulţi turişti se încumetă, călare ori pe jos, să viziteze şi celelalte vestigii ale complexului. În partea dreaptă a Tezaurului se desfăşoară Aleea clădirilor şi pereţilor roşii care te conduce spre Teatrul Roman. Iniţial a avut 3.000 de locuri, dar după ce a fost lărgit a ajuns să găzduiască circa 7.000 de oameni. O construcţie care vorbeşte de la sine despre viaţa culturală a oraşului şi dimensiunile sale. Amfiteatrul este săpat în stâncă, iar treptele lui mai sunt şi astăzi martorii unor spectacole muzicale grandioase. Concertele se organizează doar de câteva ori pe an deoarece prioritatea o constituie conservarea şi restaurarea vestigiilor pentru generaţiile viitoare. De reţinut.

În 1990 firma a început cu 5 oameni şi cu programe de incoming. Din 2000 agenţia s-a poziţionat puternic pe turismul de evenimente. La Olimpic lucrează azi 35 de specialişti. Aceştia au oferit de-a lungul celor 20 de ani, servicii şi asistenţă pentru circa 2.500.000 de clienţi. Adică, aproximativ echivalentul populaţiei Bucureştiului.\n\n- Sorin Nicolescu, aţi construit firma ca o afacere de familie, împreună cu soţia Mihaela Nicolescu, director de vânzări. Sunteţi preşedintele firmei. Doresc să aflu ce atuuri vă individualizează pe piaţă?\n\n- Nu un anumit produs, ci mobilitatea. Apoi diversificarea serviciilor. Numai aşa poţi face faţă creşterii şi descreşterii unui anumit domeniu. Au fost anumite perioade în care ticketingul a mers foarte bine, apoi incomingul, outgoingul ori turismul de evenimente pe care eu îl consider cel mai complex. Logic, ar urma întărirea activităţilor de incoming. Eu cred că legăturile între oameni consolidează relaţiile de afaceri şi zona corporate travel. E o investiţie, care acum cu nebunia internetului şi a mailului, mulţi au pierdut-o din vedere. Am inovat tot timpul şi am căutat nişe noi de piaţă. E unul dintre secretele noastre.\n\n- Cât de atractivă este România ca piaţă de evenimente?\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_97\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Olimpic International\"][/caption]\n\n- Amintesc doar câteva dintre mega-manifestările pe care le-a organizat ori le-am consolidat: Congresul Uniunii Mondiale a Poştelor (2004), cel mai marcant eveniment din România ultimilor 20 de ani, ce a reunit la Bucureşti peste 2000 de participanţi; Conferinţele regionale Dunărene (2002-2005), fiecare cu participări de circa 200 de experţi; Conferinţele naţionale şi internaţionale de drumuri, poduri şi autostrăzi (2006-2008), ce au atras între 350-500 de persoane pe ediţie; Conferinţele pe teme medicale, cele cu profil de IT şi comunicaţii; Forumul oamenilor de afaceri francofoni (2006) etc.\n\n- Nu mi-am propus să vorbim despre cifre, ci despre oameni. Cât de performantă este echipa pe care o conduceţi?\n\n- Avem o echipă de succes. Asta nu o spunem noi ci rezultatele obţinute de-a lungul anilor. Am fost aproape întotdeauna în poziţii de top. Ca o idee Olimpic Internaţional s-a aflat din 1995 până în 2007 pe primele două locuri la secţiunea de travel, în Topul CCIR. Am fost premiaţi şi pe plan internaţional cu Premiul European de Excelenţă, cu Steaua Calităţii, dar şi de către aproape toate organizaţiile de specialitate (Ministerul Turismului, ANAT, RCB, AOAR, ANEIR) şi de firmele noastre partenere, agenţii, companii hoteliere şi aeriene. Cred că am primit peste o sută de distincţii şi trofee. Mă şi gândesc, până acum nu am avut răgazul, să le strângem pe toate într-un mic muzeu. Cred că ar fi util pentru cei noi, dar şi pentru cei “clasici” deja, să ne reamintim de unde am pornit şi unde am ajuns. Pentru că vorbim de echipă trebuie să amintesc de “cărăuşii” firmei: Ştefan Şandor Mihaela, Alina Gheorghiescu, Roxana Dincă, Anca Grigorescu, Mihaela Nicolescu, motorul nostru de vânzări, Anca Taşbac, Cornelia Duţoiu, care dau greutate departamentului financiar-contabil, Mihai Buciuleac şi Emil Enache, oamenii cu care am pus pe picioare segmentul de transporturi, Emilia Dulapciu, Viorica Ionescu, Liliana Bangală, Elena Filiuţă ori Cristina Cotea. Noile valuri îi aduce în prim plan pe Cristina Ilie, Oana Bera, Simona Mocanca, Mihaela Anghel, Mihaela Tudor, cărora li se alătură Vasile Uţa, Mihai Muller, Oprişor Dumitru, George Enache, Iuliana Petre, Diana Costea, Nedescu Lucian, Alexandru Safciu, Ciuică Marian etc.\n\n- Cum vedeţi viitorul pieţii de travel din România?\n\n-Trebuie să insistăm pe segmentul de conferinţe. Avem un potenţial clar, real, avem Palatul Parlamentului, avem capacităţi turistice moderne. Putem face faţă unor manifestări care să atragă până la 5.000 de participanţi. Avem şi agenţii care au capacitatea de a organiza congrese, simpozioane, reuniuni internaţionale. În ceea ce ne priveşte, am reuşit în acest an să organizăm 11 evenimente, de la prezentări de vinuri până la parade de modă, la EXPO 2010 de la Shanghai, unde am asigurat servicii pentru circa 1.100 de turişti. Fiţi convinşi că o putem face cel puţin cu acelaşi succes şi în România.\n\nMARIAN CONSTANINESCU','Olimpic International 20 de ani','','inherit','open','open','','95-autosave','','','2011-03-15 16:42:54','2011-03-15 14:42:54','',95,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/95-autosave/',0,'revision','',0),(129,1,'2011-03-11 13:18:25','2011-03-11 11:18:25','HOTEL\r\nPremii şi aniversări cu parfum de epocă\r\nRECUNOAŞTERE INTERNAŢIONALĂ\r\nPremiu pentru Hotelul Anului\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_35\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"200\" caption=\"Paul Marasoiu\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nLa Conferinţa Anuală Internaţionala Golden Tulip, desfăşurată la Casablanca, premiul pentru Hotelul Anului în Europa Centrală şi de Est a fost decernat complexului Golden Tulip Times din Bucureşti.

După cum am informat la vremea respectivă Residence Hotels a devenit primul membru din România al Asociaţiei europene Exclusive Hotels, fiind încadrat la categoriile Luxury şi Charm & Character. Începând din ianuarie 2010, Residence Hotels se numără printre primii membrii ai Boutique and Lifestyle Lodging Association, cu sediul la Los Angeles, singura asociaţie mondială cu acest profil. Residence Hotels se numără şi printre primele hoteluri româneşti ce figurează în topul preferinţelor publicului CNN.\r\n\r\nProprietarul grupului Residence, Cristi Penescu, a declarat că “Residence reprezintă o investiţie integral românească şi am satisfacţia personală că am putut oferi bucureştenilor dar şi vizitatorilor străini, o parte din frumuseţea şi atmosfera reconstituită a oraşului din perioada interbelică”.\r\n\r\nSHOPPING HOTELIER\r\nVlad îşi vinde bijuteria\r\n\r\nOmul care a construit două bijuterii hoteliere la malul Mării Negre, una pe când era directorul general al SC Mamaia SA, alta ca investitor privat, s-a hotărât să renunţe la a doua bijuterie – hotelul Bulevard din Constanţa. Decizia de a vinde unitatea, contra sumei de 15 milioane de euro, nu a fost explicată de omul de afaceri care se gândeşte la investiţii orientate spre alte domenii mai profitabile. Complexul Bulevard a fost poziţionat încă de la început spre clientela de leisure şi business. Clasificat la 4 stele el este alcătuit din două hoteluri, cu 100 de camere, dispuse pe trei niveluri. El s-a individualizat în ultimii ani prin servicii exclusiviste, de top. Unitatea mai dispune de un restaurant, cafe bar, două săli de conferinţe cu capacităţi de 170 respectiv de 150 de locuri, centru de fitness şi relaxare, piscină exterioară şi parcare.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU & ANGELA SIMION','Hotel - revista no 81','','inherit','open','open','','86-revision-3','','','2011-03-11 13:18:25','2011-03-11 11:18:25','',86,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/11/86-revision-3/',0,'revision','',0),(130,1,'2011-03-11 13:44:54','2011-03-11 11:44:54','INTALNIRE FIJET - BODRUM, TURCIA\r\nDin oraşul lui Herodot până la Efes (2)\r\nO luptă cu doi câştigători\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_82\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Bodrum oras\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nCât de bine se potrivesc ruinele antichităţii cu hotelurile luxoase pline de obiecte de artă postmodernă? Dar istoria şi negoţul febril, consumul excesiv al oamenilor veniţi în vacanţa de vis şi peisajul saturat de albastru al Coastelor Egeei? Citiţi răspunsurile în reportajul următor, dedicat atracţiilor turistice ale staţuinilor Bodrum şi Kuşadasi. Documentarea a fost prilejuită de cel de al 53-lea Congres al Federaţiei Internaţionale a Jurnaliştilor şi Scriitorilor de Turism (FIJET). Coasta de Vest a Turciei şi staţiunile sale diferă în multe aspecte faţă de zona de sud a ţării (Antalya - Alanya) cu care, poate, turistul român este mai obişnuit. Aici ţărmul se desfăşoară ondulat, cu mici peninsule, golfuri şi plaje înguste şi scurte. Multe dintre hoteluri sunt aşezate în trepte, pe dealuri ce coboară spre mare, arhitectură care aduce în faţa ochilor peisaje relaxante.Avantaje ale BodrumuluiBodrum, oraşul lui Herodot (cunoscut în antichitate ca şi Halicarnas), se află pe o mică peninsulă în Marea Egee. Viaţa sa se concentrează în zona Marinei, de-a lungul unui golf ce îmbie lumea cu restaurantele şi terasele sale aşezate pe nisip. Din oricare dintre ele se vede silueta masivă, crenelată, a Castelului. Construit de Cavalerii Ioaniţi pe la 1500 el adăposteşte în curţile sale interioare pline de leandru, turnuri medievale şi un excelent Muzeu de Arheologie Subacvatică. Instituţia a fost deschisă în 1960, dar modul de expunere este unul interactiv, modern. Expoziţiile aduc, pe lângă o multitudine de amfore şi vase greceşti, capturile de pe epave descoperite în zonă (miceniene, bizantine ori medievale). Obiectele din sticlă şi mormântul reconstituit al unei prinţese sunt câteva argumente pentru care ar trebui să vă alocaţi cel puţin trei ore acestei vizite.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_81\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Bodrum piata\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nÎn mica piaţă din faţa castelului se află şi birourile de turism de unde se pot cumpăra bilete de croazieră spre câteva insule greceşti Kos şi Rhodos, situate la o oră depărtare de ţărmul turcesc. Străduţele comerciale încep tot aici şi se complică într-un labirint de alei acoperite cu crengi răsucite de leandru, magazinele oferind genţi de marcă, piele de bună calitate, cămăşi, artizanat. Nu trebuie însă să cădeţi în greşeala de a negocia marfa. Vânzătorii din Bodrum nu mai sunt dispuşi demult la această veche plăcere şi vă pot întoarce spatele, fără drept la replică! Negoţul s-a schimbat aici, dar în rău. E agresiv şi fără farmec.Hoteluri cu stilHotelul Marmara, o locaţie cu design postmodern (uşi transparente la toalete şi tablouri ce au ochi din leduri colarate!) e situat pe vârful unui deal, deasupra oraşului vechi. Vederea asupra golfului, mai ales la apus, e demnă de o seară romantică.\r\n\r\nBodrum Holiday Resort & Spa îţi oferă un restaurant aproape deasupra mării şi o combinaţie seducătoare de albastru mediteraneean, alb şi flori căţărătoare. Imaginea aceasta o reîntâlniţi şi ieşind din Bodrum, în direcţia Turgutreis, unde veţi traversa zeci de cartiere noi, de vile de vacanţă. Depăşind localitatea daţi de hotelul Kefaluka, o destinaţie excelentă pentru familii, cu o vedere splendidă din mai toate camerele, asupra insulei greceşti Kos.Avantaje pentru KuşadasiDe la Bodrum la Kuşadasi e un drum de cam trei ore cu maşina. Staţiunile seamănă mult între ele, ca şi aşezare, cea din urmă fiind însă mai aproape de două puncte de interes: Casa Fecioarei Maria (Meryemana) şi oraşul antic Efes. Complexele hoteliere sunt mari (Fantasia, Rixos etc.) şi pentru toate gusturile.\r\n\r\nLa distanţă de o oră Meryemana este un loc de pelerinaj, vizitat de oameni aparţinând tuturor credinţelor. Legenda spune că biserica din piatră care se vede astăzi a fost construită pe locul casei Feciorei Maria. Ea ar fi venit la Efes împreună cu Sf. Ioan. Se pot aprinde lumânări dar există şi un zid pe care cei doritori pot agăţa bilete cu dorinţele ori mulţumirile lor.\r\n\r\nDespre Efes (o intrare în complex este pe drumul ce coboară de la casa Fecioarei) Strabon spunea că ar fi fost întemeiat de amazoane. Grecii l-au transformat în secolul al VI-lea î. Hr. într-unul din cele mai prospere oraşe ale coastei. Fie că vă plac ori nu ruinele, fie că le vedeţi ca pe o grămadă de pietre inutile ori ca pe opere de artă... e greu să nu vă placă Efes! Oraşul antic are şi astăzi o întindere impresionantă, o zi nefiind de multe ori de ajuns pentru a îl vizita pe îndelete. Ruinele din perioada romană sunt cele mai vizibile. Templul lui Hadrian şi Biblioteca lui Celsus mai că te hipnotizează cu eleganţa şi bogăţia decoraţiunii sculpturale. Strada portului are 500 metri lungime. Pe vremea romanilor oraşul se bucura de aceleaşi privilegii ca şi Roma, strada aceasta fiind luminată noaptea. Teatrul de la unul dintre capetele sale avea o capacitate de 24.000 de spectatori iar în sezon se organizează spectacole variate. Mozaicurile geometrice pavează drumul oamenilor de vază, băile, toalete cu canalizare, bordelul şi ampla piaţă de mărfuri, explicate de un ghid atestat, pot deveni fascinante. Altfel o plimbare de la un capăt la altul al sitului durează cam o oră.\r\n\r\nCasa Fecioarei dar şi Efesul sunt călcate de... puhoaie de oameni, zilnic.Valurile de turişti pot face vizita înghesuită şi debusolantă.\r\n\r\nÎn Bodrum ca şi în Kuşadasi poţi sta o săptămână fără să te plictiseşti. Hotelurile din apropierea lor dar şi cele din localităţile alăturate au serviciu de transport. Autobuzele locale sunt foarte convenabile, sigure, rapide. Staţiunile în sine sunt uşor de străbătut cu piciorul. Vă recomandăm, pentru ambele destinaţii, perioadele de extrasezon. Şi atunci sunt mulţi turişti dar aerul e respirabil şi vizitele mai plăcute.\r\n\r\nSÎNZIANA & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul logistic al companiei ACCENT TRAVEL & EVENTS','Intalnire Fijet, Bodrum-Turcia','','inherit','open','open','','80-revision-4','','','2011-03-11 13:44:54','2011-03-11 11:44:54','',80,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/11/80-revision-4/',0,'revision','',0),(131,1,'2011-03-11 12:57:30','2011-03-11 10:57:30','[caption id=\"attachment_31\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Demetriade Nicolae \"][/caption]\r\n\r\nNICOLAE DEMETRIADE: „Poţi să faci mulţi bani. Dar e trist să nu ajungi la un echilibru şi să te bucuri de ceea ce ai realizat!”\r\n\r\nE un tip. Are 63 de ani. A absolvit în 1970 Facultatea de contabilitate şi finanţe a Academiei de Ştiinţe Economice din Bucureşti. A lucrat în domeniul aviaţiei, la început cea utilitară, pentru tratamente aviochimice şi ulterior, din 1982, la TAROM. Impune prin ţinută. Lucru rar în turismul autohton. Zâmbeşte la fel de rar. Atunci când se exprimă dă greutate cuvintelor şi ideilor. Îi plac lucrurile durabile şi se poziţionează atent faţă de ele. Dincolo de... armură, omul de afaceri e dublat de unul care simte şi trăieşte româneşte. A făcut-o cu succes pe vremea când lucra la stat, o face şi acum în aceeaşi măsură, în domeniul privat.\r\n\r\n- Domnule Demetriade, în urmă cu 3 ani, vânzarea companiei Happy Tour, pe care o conduceaţi, a reprezentat a doua mare tranzacţie în lumea agenţiilor de turism, după cea realizată de Danubius Travel din Constanţa, care a vândut pachetul majoritar către TUI. Spre deosebire de prima, Happy a fost vândută în întregime fondului de investiţii spaniol GED. Ce v-a determinat să luaţi o asemenea decizie?\r\n\r\n- Am vândut Happy Tour într-o perioada când afacerile mergeau foarte bine în România iar agenţia se afla de 7 ani pe primul loc, ca volum de afaceri şi profit.\r\nAm realizat însa că totul este ciclic, atât perioadele de boom economic cât şi crizele\r\nfiind obligatoriu să reduci expunerea la eventuale riscuri. La decizia de vânzare a contribuit mult şi dezvoltarea businessului care la o cifră de afaceri de 54.000.000 euro pe an, cerea o implicare totală din partea managmentului -adica eu şi soţia, Carmen Demetriade. În 1997 am început cu trei persoane, ca o afacere de familie. Şi cu ce ştiam să facem cel mai bine – ticketing. Faţă de cei care existau în piaţă şi au au început de la zero, noi aveam deja experienţă şi cunoştinţe consistente. Asta ne-a permis să începem activitatea de la un anumit nivel profesional. S-a dovedit că ideea a fost câştigătoare. Am atras parteneri serioşi şi oameni profesionalizaţi, în parte veniţi de la Tarom. După ticketing, răspunzând la cerinţele clientelei, am dezvoltat şi aranjamente de travel, pachete de vacanţă, business-travel etc. Principalul atu cu care ne-am poziţionat a fost seriozitatea şi dorinţa de a prezenta produse noi. După 10 ani, când am vândut Happy Tour, aveam 100 de angajaţi. Dar nu numărul lor era important, ci valoarea profesională şi umană. Numele companiei a fost ales aşa, pentru că sugera asocierea turismului cu bucuria de a călătorii.\r\nEu cred că întotdeauna trebui să ajungi la un echilibru în viaţă. Şi să nu uiţi că, pentru un timp, poţi să câştigi mulţi bani, dar e posibil ca uneori să nu şti când trebuie să te opreşti şi să nu te poţi bucura de ce ai realizat. Decizia nu a fost uşoară, dar când am hotârat să vindem firma, am făcut toate demersurile într-un ritm alert, fără consultanţi, fără avocaţi.\r\n\r\n- Sunteţi un foarte bun cunoscător al aviaţiei româneşti. O perioadă aţi fost directorul general al Tarom, companie de a cărei istorie recentă, vă leagă o parte din viaţă. Au fost mai multe runde de negocieri de-a lungul ultimului deceniu, pentru a stabili o colaborare puternică între travel agenţii români şi compania aviatică naţională! Ce credeţi că a câştigat sau a pierdut industria de travel într-o posibilă alianţă cu Tarom?\r\n\r\n- A fost o şansă foarte bună atât pentru Tarom cât şi pentru travel să realizăm o colaborare benefică pentru ambele părţi, având în vedere că puteam să îmbin experienţa din cele două domenii. Am avut discuţii serioase cu reprezentanţii\r\nANAT din perioada 2001-2002. Au fost chiar perspective de încheiere a unui acord.\r\nAr fi fost un câştig important dar anumite orgolii au făcut să nu realizam decât o parte din intenţii. TAROM cât şi ANAT au pierdut atunci o bună şansă de a relansa industria de travel şi de transport aerian. Dacă am fi finalizat parteneriatul am fi generat numeroase avantaje financiare pentru agenţiile de turism şi pentru transportator. Un singur exemplu: dacă ne-am fi asumat în comun responsabilitatea şi riscurile financiare pe segmentul organizării curselor charter, am fi reuşit să relansăm multe programe turistice şi, simultan, să creştem şi profitabilitatea Tarom.\r\n\r\n- În prima decadă a existenţei Asociaţiei Naţionale a Agenţiilor de Turism din România (ANAT) - organizaţie care a aniversat de curând 20 de ani de existenţă -, aţi fost o personalitate vizibilă în conducerea acesteia. După aceea v-aţi retras, optând pentru dezvoltarea business-ului în defavoarea activităţilor asociative. De ce aţi luat o asemenea decizie?\r\n\r\n- Când te afli în plutonul fruntaş, nu poţi rămâne indiferent la ce se întâmplă cu organizaţia. Am avut o perioada destul de activă în ANAT, implicat afectiv dar şi financiar. Am susţinut de unul singur, pentru o bună perioadă de timp, o emisiune de promovare a agenţiilor de turism pe un important post TV, la care eu am plătit iar alţii şi-au promovat propriul business. Am reuşit să obţin de la TAROM includerea taxei de emitere, în biletul de avion, rezolvând favorabil agenţiilor de turism păstrarea comisionului şi acest lucru a fost făcut în ciuda adversităţii unei bune părţi din ANAT, care nu înţelegea bine situaţia. Am încercat să creem în cadrul ANAT o structură asociativă, care să se ocupe doar de problemele agenţiilor IATA. Şi acest demers s-a înţeles greşit de cei din conducerea ANAT de la acea dată, motiv pentru care am hotărat că este mai prudent să mă ocup de afacerile agenţiei, decât să mă bat pentru cauze care nu erau înţelese.\r\n\r\n- Un om de afaceri din turism afirma: ”Nici un guvern nu a susţinut capitalul şi comunitatea investitorilor autohtoni. De aceea nici un guvern postdecembrist nu a cunoscut succesul!”. Care este opinia dumneavoastră vis-à-vis de această declaraţie?\r\n\r\n- Din păcate, turismul a fost în toţi aceşti ani, cenuşăreasa economiei româneşti, pentru că nu prezenta o problema socială. Guvernele au făcut investiţii serioase în tot felul de industrii falimentare, care au fost finanţate de la buget doar pentru a păstra o linişte socială, fiindcă industriile respective ulterior au dispărut. Turismul ar fi creat o bună şansă pentru România ca din orice dolar investit să obţină minimum 3 dolari venituri. “Ajutorul” acordat de guvern pentru investitorii autohtoni, a fost unul distructiv. A privatizat ONT Carpaţi – un brand naţional valoros cu importante active, cu un investitor din Cipru, pe un preţ infim. În timp ce toate firmele româneşti private, care au început de la zero, au plătit impozite serioase la stat, noii investitori, după ce au vândut toate activele, au funcţionat numai pe pierderi. Nu e un caz singular. Este trist că şi brandul ONT CARPAŢI a rămas la noul investitor.\r\n\r\n- Azi conduceţi firma de turism World Travel împreună cu soţia dumneavoastră Carmen Demetriade. Deţineţi în portofoliu mai multe branduri de colecţie de la cele de croaziere până la cele ale unor companii aviatice internaţionale. În ce măsură vă preocupă acum dezvoltarea unui compartiment de incoming şi vânzarea României ca destinaţie turistică?\r\n\r\n- Afirm cu mare regret că incomingul este doar o speranţă. Nu poţi atrage turişti străini fără să deţii o infrastructură corespunzătoare, fără un sistem de asistenţă sanitară la exigenţe europene. Se fac eforturi serioase de promovare externă dar atâta timp cât nu rezolvăm problema drumurilor, cât sistemul sanitar este în derivă incomingul rămâne un vis îndepărtat. Categoric trebuie să stabilim ce lucruri, ce destinaţii vrem să promovăm, dar mai ales ce poveşti avem în spatele lor. Americanii fac bani grozavi din vânzarea unor stânci ori locuri aflate în deşert în jurul cărora spun poveşti frumoase. Turiştii sunt încântaţi de ele. Noi avem locuri extraordinare dar nu avem nici infrastructură şi nici poveştile care să ne permită să facem bani din ele. Vedeţi, prima dată poţi minţii turistul dar dacă l-ai minţit acela nu mai calcă a doua oară prin România. Apoi, chiar dacă pare şocant, ţara noastră este extrem de riscantă pentru turişti. În cazul în care se întâmplă ceva nu ai unde să le acorzi asistenţa medicală necesară.\r\nÎn ceea ce priveşte brandurile de colecţie, trebuie să fiu la fel de sincer. Reprezentăm mai multe companii aviatice sau de croaziere în România, cele mai importante fiind Emirates şi Royal Caribbean. Nu suntem colecţionari de branduri decât în măsura în care este pot să se transforme în afaceri profitabile. Sigur, este şi o chestiune de imagine dar şi o investiţie de seriozitate a ambilor parteneri. Ca să reuşeşti să le reprezinţi şi să le promovezi trebuie multă competenţă şi răbdare. Iată că Emirates, după ani de zile, devine o afacere profitabilă stabilă, iar compania internaţională de croaziere se apropie şi ea de această linie. Da, a reprezenta o marcă străină poate deveni un business profitabil. Dar el nu devine automat profitabil. Sub acest aspect piaţa românească este încă generoasă în oportunităţi. World Travel derulează negocieri şi cu alte companii internaţionale de top.\r\n\r\n- În viziunea dumneavoastră poate fi turismul cartea noastră cîştigătoare, cu care ne putem impune şi individualiza în Uniunea Europeană ?\r\n\r\n- Şi România poate deveni o destinaţie turistică dar nu trebuie să uităm că am rămas mult în urma vecinilor noştri, cu care nu ne putem compara nici din punct de vedere al sezonalităţii. Cred că nici nu ar trebui să ne comparăm. N-avem cu ce să impresionăm prea mult. Decât cu Delta Dunării, cu Bucovina, cu Maramureşul, care însă se alterează rapid arhitectonic şi din punct de vedere al tradiţiilor. Avem însă şansa să arătăm lucruri naturale în Munţii Carpaţi. Dar ca să le vinzi trebuie să fi foarte aproape de turist, pentru a-l feri de tot felul de evenimente ce i-ar putea altera vacanţa. Să o spunem cu sinceritate - lumea reală din ţara noastră, destul de agresivă, nu avantajează prea mult destinaţiile pe care pe promovăm. Iată şi câţiva factori de risc: oferim lucruri care nu se dovedesc atractive pentru vizitatorii străini; dorinţa unor ofertanţi de servicii de a câştiga cât mai mult pe o unitate scurtă de timp; sezonalitatea turistică redusă – 2-3 luni pe an, atât pe segmentul litoral cât şi pe cel montan. Mai amplu ar putea fi valorificate turismul balnear şi rural. În fine, micii întreprinzători din turism, căci ei formează baza serviciilor nu sunt orientaţi cu faţa spre client. Ei nu au forţa de a se promova şi, ca atare nici puterea de a rezista o perioadă îndelungată fără turişti. Involuţia segmentelor de turism mentionate, era previzibilă. Fără turişti, fără facilităţi fiscale, cu un sezon de litoral şi montan extrem de scurte, nu poate nimeni să reziste mult timp în business, decât dacă face rabat la calitate. Apoi am ratat şi şansa de a privatiza industria hotelieră cu mari lanţuri hoteliere internaţionale, şi de a le atrage spre staţiunile existente, în cadrul unui parteneriat profitabil. De a ne vinde unor investitori străini reali, care ar fi generat performanţă şi profit. În toata lumea, turismul aduce şi alte business-uri şi profituri considerabile. Ca urmare va trebui ca şi România să facă din turism o prioritate naţională.\r\n\r\n- Se spune că România a devenit o ţară a proiectelor fără sfârşit! E acoperită această afirmaţie ?\r\n\r\n- Problema nu e că avem proiecte, ci că rămânem la stadiu de proiect. Ştiţi cum au reuşit să ajungă turcii o superputere turistică în mai bine de un deceniu. Au generat şi au construit sute de hoteluri în cadrul unei viziuni economice naţionale. Ele au fost susţinute de către stat. Sigur, facilităţile fiscale în turism ar fi benefice, dar ele nu se sudează, nu pot genera dezvoltare decât dacă există un proiect, un program naţional clar şi de perspectivă. Pe 15-20 de ani. Partea proastă a lucrurilor este că fiecare guvern, vine mereu la putere cu ceva “original” şi în materie de turism. Şi o luăm de la capăt. Deci nu avem predictibilitate. Reinventăm lumea la fiecare patru ani şi acest proces este extrem de costisitor. Cred că la asta făceaţi referinţă.\r\n\r\n- Deşi este un proiect mai vechi el nu s-a materializat nici azi. Credeţi că este posibilă în România, crearea unei alianţe de travel pentru a forma un touroperator puternic, capabil să se impună pe pieţele internaţionale. Sau acesta este un model depăşit!\r\n\r\n- În 2005, am sperat că pot să materializez un astfel de proiect. Am reuşit pentru prima oara – şi singura dată, să aduc la masa discuţiilor alte două agenţii de turism din rândul primelor 3 din România, în intenţia de a forma un consolidator de travel. Am infiinţat şi o firmă, CONSOLIDATOR TRAVEL, care trebuia să unească forţa de vânzare a celor trei, astfel încât să obţină parteneriate favorabile cu marii touroperatori globali şi companiile aeriene, ceea ce ar fi adus avantaje nu numai agenţiilor în cauză, dar şi turiştilor care ar fi beneficiat de preţuri mai atractive şi servicii superioare. Discuţiile au avansat, am participat toţi trei în comun la Târgul de Turism al României. Dar, din păcate, au fost şi orgolii şi invidie care au făcut ca acest important proiect să eşueze. Am înteles atunci că nu avem şansa de a ne unii în această industrie, de a avea puncte de vedere comune şi am\r\nînceput să mă gândesc la vânzarea firmei noastre.\r\n\r\n- Se vorbeşte mult despre piaţa muncii calificate, profesionalizate. Travelul este probabil cel mai dinamic prin schimbările ce apar în fiecare an la nivel tehnologic şi organizatoric. Suntem pregătiţi să facem faţă ritmului schimbărilor? Nu numai la nivel de top-management, fireşte!\r\n\r\n- Agenţiile de turism româneşti au parcurs într-o perioadă foarte scurtă, etape importante în dezvoltarea tehnologiei. Atât managementul cât şi travel agenţii au demonstrat că sunt bine pregătiţi şi au o capacitate formidabilă de adaptare la cerinţele pieţei. În ceea ce ne priveşte pot spune că, în 2007, Happy Tour avea o echipă capabilă să organizeze orice tip de eveniment. Aveam oameni bine pregătiţi, avem acces la tehnologie şi la touroperatorii internaţionali. Nu eram cu nimic mai prejos decât alte agenţii de turism din străinătate cu un istoric mult mai bogat. În general s-a trecut de la stadiul incipient, foarte rapid la cel modern, avansat. Aş mai dori doar să precizez că sunt partizanul unor competiţii reale. Nu mă interesează cea în care concurenţa scade preţurile până se apropie de faliment. S-au văzut cazuri. Asta nu e concurenţă. Adevărata competiţie se duce pe planul calităţii, unde câştigă cel mai serios, cel care a oferit cel mai bun raport între calitate şi preţ. Şi eu sunt convins că am dovedit acest lucru. Cu Happy Tour şi, acum, cu World Travel.\r\n\r\n- În tot mai multe ţări se vorbeşte despre necesitatea unui naţionalismul economic! Cât de viabil e acest concept în contextul economiei globalizate?\r\n\r\n- Cred că este o cauză pierdută, atât timp cât investitorii strategici deţin cele mai profitabile activităţi din ţară.\r\n\r\n- Unii confraţi de breaslă afirmă că turistul român este unul dintre cei mai dificili dn lume. E o exagerare?\r\n\r\n- Nu suntem mai dificili decât alţii. Poate doar mai exigenţi şi cred că este normal atâta timp cât fiecare turist se asteaptă să primească servicii de calitate.\r\n\r\n- Care vi se pare a fi cel mai important lucru în viaţă ?\r\n\r\n- Dacă eşti sănătos, este foarte important să fi serios în tot ce faci. Aşa vei putea reuşi în viaţă.\r\n\r\n- Dacă ar fi să stabiliţi un top al preferinţelor care ar fi primele destinaţii, oraşe, zone din România?\r\n\r\n- Bucovina şi Delta Dunării sunt două zone extraordinare.\r\n\r\n- Dar în lume. Ce locuri de călătorie preferaţi. Şi de ce!\r\n\r\n- Preferinţele sunt generate de percepţii şi amintiri.

Toate vin la timpul lor ca şi întrebarea mea. De când nu v-aţi mai uitat la stele? Ce are asta cu turismul? Ştiu, unii dintre dumneavoatră au călătorit mai puţin în acest an. Alţii au făcut sacrificii până au strâns bani pentru o vacanţă cu buget moderat. Cu toate acestea eu cred că atitudinea turistului român s-a limpezit şi a crescut în demnitate şi verticalitate. E o observaţie. Mă încântă să constat că numeroşi români ştiu la detaliu ce vor de la o călătorie. Şi să cântărească un produs de mai multe ori până să-l cumpere. S-au tras ţepe de notorietate în acest an. Şi, în majoritatea cazurilor, vina a fost deplasată spre agenţiile de turism. Adevărul e undeva pe la mijloc, pentru că şi turiştii s-au calicit să cumpere ceva foarte ieftin. Ieftin au vrut, ieftin au avut. Au vrut chilipiruri de vacanţă. Sună frumos, dar e păgubos. Ca orice comerciant travel agenţi autohtoni au speculat aceste dorinţe. Aşa se întâmplă şi în lume. Vinovat nu e cel care vinde, fraier e cel care cumpără fiind aburit de un preţ mai mic cu 50-100 de euro. Bref, recomand călătorilor autohtoni să cumpere pachete de calitate, chiar dacă ele sunt sensibil mai scumpe.\r\n\r\nCa o paranteză. Am parcurs în aceste zile un studiu realizat de institutele naţionale de statistică din Europa de Est. Potrivit analizei angajaţii din turismul românesc, din hoteluri şi restaurante, au primit, de ce nu mă miră?, în luna septembrie cele mai mici salarii nete din estul Europei – echivalentul a 180 de euro. Informaţia ar fi una banală, pe plan intern, dacă nu am avea termeni de comparaţie. Bulgarii au ridicat 215 euro, în Ungaria salariul similar a fost de 470, iar în Polonia de aproximativ 600 de euro. Şocant nu?\r\n\r\nCu toate acestea există motive de optimism, chiar dacă aţi putea crede că am luat-o razna. România creşte turistic pe plan intern. Mulţi dintre dumneavoastră nu au descoperit încă noile atracţii, complexe hoteliere şi servicii. Dar acest lucru se va întâmpla cu siguranţă atunci când curiozitate va fi dublată şi de o putere de cumpărare mai mare. Deci merită să ne ridicăm capul şi să privim la stele. La cele de pe cer sau din bradul împodobit de sărbătoare. Şi pentru noi este o sărbătoare că ne citiţi, lună de lună, de aproape 15 ani. Povestea merge mai departe. Lumină înaltă în case şi suflete!

De Poiana Lungă am aflat din poezia întitulată astfel, scrisă de împărăteasa Elisabeta, legendara Sisi.\r\n\r\nStând de vorbă cu profesorul pensionar, Iancu Feneşan - păstrător al inelului împărătesei, dăruit străbunicului lui, Mihail Feneşan, inel pe care revista Traveller Magazin l-a prezentat în premieră -, am aflat că Poiana Lungă este un cătun al comunei Cornereva, din Munţii Cernei, la vreo 15 – 20 de kilometri de Bogâltin. Şi aşa am ajuns, după mai bine de trei ore de urcat, călăuzit de Ana Maria şi Ilie, doi fii ai muntelui, la poalele Muntelui Arjana, unde se află Poiana Lungă.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_32\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"224\" caption=\"Imparateasa Sisi\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nAm tras la familia Novăcescu, în creierul munţilor, în zona numită Bedina. Localitatea se numeşte Poiana Lungă. Vârful Arjana (1512 m), se înalţă semeţ în stânga noastră, iar undeva mai jos, izvorăşte zglobiu pârâul Bedina ce se varsă în Cerna. Nicolae Novăcescu, gazda noastră, bun gospodar, ca orice om de munte, se pricepe la multe: să facă “toble” (scânduri) cu drujba, scaune din bardă, să zidească, să pună gresie şi faianţă, să producă energie electrică cu un generator acţionat de apa muntelui, să tragă apă în casă, într-un cuvânt să convieţuiască armonios cu natura. Asediaţi de mere roşii şi pere aurii, Novăcescu îmi prezintă familia: soţia sa, Maria, Daniel, un băieţel voinic de 4 ani, Ilie, băiatul cel mare, de 14 ani şi Ana–Maria, fata de 18 ani, elevă la Colegiul Hercules din Băile Herculane.\r\n\r\nIntru în vorbă cu Nicolae Novăcescu. Încerc să-i înţeleg resorturile intime prin care reuşeşte, din munca lui, să-şi întreţină o familie numeroasă şi să-şi facă o casă “care se învârte după soare”, după gusturile şi ideile pe care Ana–Maria ştie să le impună tuturor membrilor familiei. Mă uit la peisajul generos luminat de razele calde ale unei toamne târzii, adăpostit ca într-o căldare de către Vârful Arjana şi de Geanţurile Bedinei. În zare, dincolo de Valea Cernei, se zăresc pereţii de calcar ai Munţilor Mehedinţi. Mă gândesc ce aş mai putea să vorbesc cu acest om, care în două vorbe scurte m-a făcut să înţeleg filozofia lui de viaţă. Mi-a vorbit de vecinul cel mai apropiat, moşu Lazăr Rădoi, de 70 de ani, care stă cu baba lui la circa o jumate de oră de mers de la casa sa. Mi-a povestit cum, atunci când a montat generatorul de curent pe pârâul Bedina, i-a tras şi vecinului său un cablu ca să aibă curent şi lumină la bătrâneţe. Un fapt normal între doi vecini. Aici sus, în singurătatea munţilor, gesturile şi omenia au altă greutate.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_33\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Imparateasa Sisi\"][/caption]\r\n\r\n- Aţi avut oaspeţi aici, în creierul munţilor? Îi cunoşteai sau au venit întâmplător?\r\n- Da, or venit din Oradea, Timişoara, Oţelu Roşu, Ploieşti, chiar Germania. Dar au venit şi excursionişti, cu motociclete, cu ATV-uri, pe drumul de la Bogâltin. Am avut acum o vreme, două persoane din Germania, unul cu o mototcicletă şi unul cu ATV–ul. Îmi aduc aminte, ploia, erau uzi bine. Le-am zis, mai mult prin semne: “Haidaţi, să dormiţi la mine!”. Le-am dat să mănânce. M-au filmat, aveau un aparat. Dimineaţa ar fi vrut să-mi dea un ban că au mâncat, au dormit, erau bucuroşi că au găsit un adăpost. Da eu nu am vrut să iau nimic, nu prea luăm noi.\r\n\r\n- Mai ştii vre-un traseu, de aici la Băile Herculane?- Păi ştiu că bunicul nevesti-mi cobora în fiecare an, primăvara de Paşti, cu mieii în Platoul Coronini. Aveam o rudă acolo unde veneau clienţii şi luau miei de acolo. Din Platoul Coronini se urca în culmea muntelui până la Iarba moale şi de acolo, imediat, se cobora în Poiana Lungă. Imediat după coasta aceea, după ce se urcă pe Cracu Împărătesei se ajunge la Poiana Lungă, cam în zece minute.\r\n\r\nCracu Împărătesei! Simt cum oboseala celor trei ore de urcuş se topeşte. Bucuria certitudinii îmi luminează dintr-o dată, faţa. Sentimentul pe care l-am trăit, la auzul acestor cuvinte a fost asemănător cu cel trăit la descoperirea versurilor scrise de împărăteasa Elisabeta despre Băile Herculane, la Viena. În sfârşit, aveam încă o dovadă a excursiilor împărătesei prin aceste locuri. Trecere care avea să fie observată de locuitorii zonei ce au dat numele de “Cracu Împărătesei” locului în care îi plăcea împărătesei să se plimbe şi care, probabil, i-a inspirat scrierea poeziei “Poiana Lungă”. A doua zi, m-am trezit de dimineaţă, cu gândul la “Poiana Lungă” şi la “Cracu Împărătesei”. Am coborât într-o vale, după care am început să urcăm printr-o pădure de conifere, însoţiţi de Nicolae, călăuza noastră de ocazie. Aici ne-am readus aminte de versurile împărătesei care descriu natura ce se trezeşte la viaţă:\r\n\r\nStejarii foşnesc misterios,\r\nLa fel ca fagii ei şoptesc.\r\nPăsările pădurii se trezesc,\r\nCiripesc vesele şi râd.\r\nDin pădure răsună vuietul\r\nApei, în care trăiesc nimfele.\r\n\r\nDupă urcuşul prin pădure, în faţa noastră se deschide Poiana Lungă, un platou înconjurat de păduri. În faţa ochilor luminat de soarele dimineţii, se ridică Vârful Arjana, pe care Sisi îl vede ca un templu:\r\n\r\nVulturii înconjoară înălţimile,\r\nCa să descopere soarele.\r\nAcolo sus, în fortăreaţa de piatră, pluteşte,\r\nAsemenea unui cuib de păsări răpitoare,\r\nÎnconjurat de pini şi brazi,\r\nUn templu, luminat de licăririle dimineţii.\r\n\r\nSus, în poiană o altă surpriză. Ajungând la conacul lui Nicolae, unde are o livadă de meri şi peri, privirile ne sunt atrase de rodul bogat al pomilor în jurul cărora erau covoare de un roşu sau auriu incredibil de adevărat şi natural. Nu puteam călca în jurul pomilor de atâta rod. Gândul mă duce din nou la împărăteasă care, inspirată de aceste imagini de vis, scria aceste versuri în jurnalul ei intim:\r\n\r\nAstfel trec minute, secunde,\r\nOrele, chiar, se grăbesc.\r\nSoarele îşi lasă razele strălucitoare\r\nSă cadă pe acoperişul templului.\r\nFagii îţi fac semne ademenitoare,\r\nSă cauţi la ei umbra răcoritoare.\r\nCât de puternici totuşi privesc,\r\nLa cerul albastru, ceresc.\r\nOcrotită de frunzişul îmbelşugat,\r\nNoaptea este verde-ntunecată doar aici.\r\nPrin aceste spaţii străvezii,\r\nPăzită de umbra copacilor,\r\nSe plimbă Titania-ndelung,\r\n\r\nÎnsoţită de cântecul păsărilor. Departe de eticheta curţii imperiale, Elisabeta trăieşte din plin armonia naturii. Întâlnirea cu un cioban cu oile, care-i dăruieşte lapte proaspăt muls, o trezeşte din starea de reverie:\r\nDar la venirea serii\r\nSe-apropie păstorul cu oile şi mieii.\r\nEi poposesc în Poiana Lungă;\r\nO aşteaptă aici, la adăpat, pe Titania.\r\nEa pune evantaiul în dreapta,\r\nPăstorul îi umple paharul\r\nPlin de lichid înspumat, parfumat\r\nDe tăria ierburilor, a rădăcinilor.\r\nEl mai goleşte-odată ugerul oilor,\r\nCât de bine e după căldura\r\nZilei, să te înviorezi cu băutura;\r\nEa mulţumeşte zâmbind băiatului.\r\nDrept mulţumire-i dă o monedă de aur,\r\nEl însă zice: „Mai zăboveşte dar\r\nPrin aste păduri şi munţi,\r\n\r\nDomnul să te conducă şi să te-ntărească.Umbrele serii o determină pe împărăteasă să părăsescă, cu regret acest loc de vis:Coboară iar în valea cea întunecată\r\nŞi Luna o-nsoţeşte iar;\r\nLumina ei de-argint, drept călăuză,\r\n\r\nO însoţeşte pe potecă.Părăsim Poiana Lungă. Trecem pe lângă o turmă de oi. Ne reîntoarcem acasă, la familia Nicolae Novăcescu. Ne pregătim bagajul pentru a ne reîntoarce la Herculane. Promitem gazdelor că vom reveni. Plecăm din aceste locuri cu oameni minunaţi. În urma noastră parcă auzim foşnind pe covorul din frunze galbele şi roşii, paşii împărătesei Elisabeta. Auzim oare, poezia istoriei?\r\n\r\nDORIN BĂLTEANU','Pe urmele imparatesei Sisi','','inherit','open','open','','100-revision-5','','','2011-03-15 16:40:01','2011-03-15 14:40:01','',100,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/100-revision-5/',0,'revision','',0),(134,1,'2011-03-15 16:29:10','2011-03-15 14:29:10','S-a lansat într-o o cascadă de gafe, sancţionată cu indulgenţă de consultanţii, proprietarii de agenţii sau de hoteluri prezenţi în sală.

S-a lansat într-o o cascadă de gafe, sancţionată cu indulgenţă de consultanţii, proprietarii de agenţii sau de hoteluri prezenţi în sală. Aflat la un simpozion cu tema „Viitorul Turismului Românesc. Strategia digitală de promovare a României” ministrul Elena Udrea a epatat prin afirmaţii şocante. Preocupată de viitorul promovării ţării noastre pe Facebook, şi nu e nimic rău în asta, doamna Udrea a anunţat mai întâi un mare succes. A desfiinţat 7 din cele 17 birouri de turism din străinătate pentru că nu s-au dovedit eficiente. „Am economisit un milion de euro pe an, prin închiderea lor”. După părerea domniei sale azi nu mai intră nimeni în aceste Oficii naţionale de promovare. După umila noastră părere nu birourile ci majoritatea celor care au fost angajaţi să ducă această muncă reprezentativă pentru o ţară, poartă vina că România nu creşte în vizibilitate. Iar cei câţiva profesionişti, fac ce pot în comparaţie cu omologii din alte ţări, pentru că nu au bugete pentru manifestări. S-au plafonat. Au devenit simpli funcţionari care aprind luminile doar când vine să participe la vreun Târg internaţional de turism, o oficialitate a ministerului. Apoi lumina se stinge până la următorul spectacol. Da, e o performanţă, ţara a economisit un milion de euro, dar o singură dată. Urmează să fie risipite zeci de milioane, pentru prezenţe turistice în străinătate organizate la preţul... cel mai mic. Doamna ministru a a anunţat că a găsit soluţia pentru a înlocui rolul acestor birouri, şi ca atare se gândeşte să le desfiinţeze şi pe celelalte 10. Facebook, va face minuni, şi va relansa cu costuri mici, interesul uriaş al străinilor pentru ţara noastră. Ne-ar mai rămâne doar să ne pregătim graniţele şi aeroporturile pentru a fluidiza intrările masive ale acestora.\r\n\r\nAbsolutizarea Facebook, care este doar un instrument de marketing, l-a făcut pe unul dintre invitaţi - Scott Gallacher -, managing director The Aston Group, să tempereze avântul declaraţiilor. Facebook nu este o soluţie universală, care le înlocuieşte pe celelalte, electronice ori tradiţionale. Sistemul oferă oportunităţi nelimitate şi pentru promovarea turistică. Este, într-adevăr, ceva fabulos să poţi trimite mesaje la peste 243 de milioane de clienţi care consumă lunar pe platforma de socializare circa 500 de bilioane de minute. Dar trebuie să fim sinceri şi realişti. Călătorii au nevoie de emoţie, de gust, de atmosfera pe care nu ţi-o poate oferi informaţia electronică. Românii au poveşti minunate, dar trebuie să ştiţi să le spuneţi. Pentru aceasta aveţi nevoie de scriitori de poveşti.\r\n\r\n(Nr. 82, Ianuarie 2010)\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n ','Facebook e doar un instrument ','','inherit','open','open','','121-revision-5','','','2011-03-15 17:21:08','2011-03-15 15:21:08','',121,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/121-revision-5/',0,'revision','',0),(140,1,'2011-03-15 17:25:56','2011-03-15 15:25:56','INTRARE ÎN PIAŢĂ\r\nEpoque, boutique de Bucureşti

La sfârşitul anului trecut a intrat în circuitul bucureştean cel mai nou hotel botique. Epoque este amplasat în vecinătatea Parcului Cişmigiu şi reprezintă o investiţie de circa 9 milioane de euro. Construcţia a început în 2007 şi aparţine firmei D&M Perfect Real Estate, al cărui acţionar este Dan Claudiu Pârâu. Hotelul oferă 45 de apartamente cu suprafeţe cuprinse între 35 şi 110 metri pătraţi.\r\n\r\nÎncă de la deschidere hotelul Epoque, a cărui management este asigurat de Trend Hospitality - companie condusă de Tinu Sebeşanu -, a fost afiliat la grupul internaţional de hoteluri independente Worldhotels. Complexul este primul din România care implementează acest sistem, beneficiind astfel de expunere în peste 100 de sisteme active în industria ospitalităţii. Worldhotels este un sistem de rezervări complet integrat şi are acces la toate sistemele de rezervări şi GDS. Proprietăţile membre Worldhotels se adresează unui segment turistic distinct, acela al călătorilor individuali. Grupul deţine la această oră 450 de unităţi afiliate în 65 de ţări dintre care doar 30 sunt localizate în Europa de Est. Heike Hoerdemann, Director Business Development Worldhotels pentru Europa Centrală, a declarat că există intenţia de a mai afilia încă 4 hoteluri din ţara noastră dar că discuţiile se află în stadiu de negocieri. “Pentru un hotel independent este imposibil să supravieţuiască fără să se afilieze unui grup mai mare de hoteluri, care să îi ofere expertiză şi vizibilitate pe pieţele internaţionale” – a precizat, la rândul său Antony Kuhnen, directorul general al hotelului. Conform acestuia Epoque a fost targetat pentru turişti din ţările nordice, Germania, Italia dar şi din ţările vecine. El va fi promovat în rândul clientelei de afaceri şi al vizitatorilor care văd în Bucureşti o destinaţie atractivă de weekend.\r\nPROIECTE

Construcţia a început în 2007 şi aparţine firmei D&M Perfect Real Estate, al cărui acţionar este Dan Claudiu Pârâu. Hotelul oferă 45 de apartamente cu suprafeţe cuprinse între 35 şi 110 metri pătraţi.\r\n\r\nÎncă de la deschidere hotelul Epoque, a cărui management este asigurat de Trend Hospitality - companie condusă de Tinu Sebeşanu -, a fost afiliat la grupul internaţional de hoteluri independente Worldhotels. Complexul este primul din România care implementează acest sistem, beneficiind astfel de expunere în peste 100 de sisteme active în industria ospitalităţii. Worldhotels este un sistem de rezervări complet integrat şi are acces la toate sistemele de rezervări şi GDS. Proprietăţile membre Worldhotels se adresează unui segment turistic distinct, acela al călătorilor individuali. Grupul deţine la această oră 450 de unităţi afiliate în 65 de ţări dintre care doar 30 sunt localizate în Europa de Est. Heike Hoerdemann, Director Business Development Worldhotels pentru Europa Centrală, a declarat că există intenţia de a mai afilia încă 4 hoteluri din ţara noastră dar că discuţiile se află în stadiu de negocieri. “Pentru un hotel independent este imposibil să supravieţuiască fără să se afilieze unui grup mai mare de hoteluri, care să îi ofere expertiză şi vizibilitate pe pieţele internaţionale” – a precizat, la rândul său Antony Kuhnen, directorul general al hotelului. Conform acestuia Epoque a fost targetat pentru turişti din ţările nordice, Germania, Italia dar şi din ţările vecine. El va fi promovat în rândul clientelei de afaceri şi al vizitatorilor care văd în Bucureşti o destinaţie atractivă de weekend.\r\nPROIECTE
\r\nPalace - o provocare la Băile Govora
\r\nCelebru cândva, fief al protipendadei din prima jumătate a secolului trecut Hotelul Palace din Govora va renaşte din propriile sale ruine. Cu o sută de ani în urmă arhitectul francez E. Doneaud, începea construirea complexului, care urma să devină unul dintre cele mai frumoase şi atractive locuri de vacanţă din România. Lucrările au durat patru ani (1911-1914) iar „bijuteria” a costat 5 milioane de lei, bani grei la acea vreme. Palace oferea 240 de camere, un Cazinou şi un Pavilion Central de Băi. De-a lungul timpului s-a impus ca monument de arhitectură emblematic pentru judeţul Vâlcea, şi loc de referinţă pentru turismul balnear românesc. Aici au activat medici şi savanţi renumiţi, din ţară dar şi din întreaga Europă. În ultimele decenii clădirea s-a deteriorat iar hotelul a fost închis.\r\n\r\nDeşi în perioada de tranziţie s-a confruntat cu dificultăţi financiare şi de patrimoniu societatea Băile Govora SA a reuşit în ultimii ani să le depăşească. Compania a retrezit interesul pentru turismul balnear şi de întreţinere cu hotelurile Parc şi Belvedere, baze care oferă condiţii moderne de cazare şi tratament. Acum a sosit timpul ca şi hotelul Palace să revină la viaţă. El va intra în circuitul turistic în 2012 cu dotări şi facilităţi de 4 stele. Nu este un scenariu ficţionar, ne asigură Mihai Handolescu, directorul general al SC Băile Govora SA. După cum afirmă acesta „Palace Govora Spa, cum va fi promovat pe piaţă, va redeveni hotelul fanion al staţiunii. Lucrările se află în curs de derulare. Ele sunt prevăzute în proiectul accesat şi aprobat în cadrul Programului Operaţional Regional (POR), axa prioritară 5 ce se referă la Dezvoltarea durabilă şi promovarea turismului, domeniul de intervenţie 5.2. După cum se ştie el vizează crearea, dezvoltarea, modernizarea infrastructurii de turism pentru valorificarea resurselor naturale şi creşterea calităţii serviciilor turistice. Proiectul este cofinanţat de către Uniunea Europeană prin Fondul de Dezvoltare Regională (REGIO) în cazul de faţă Agenţia de ADR Sud-Vest Oltenia şi Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului (MDRT). Costurile eligible se ridică la aproximativ 12,127 milioane lei, din care 59% o reprezintă contribuţia nerambursabilă”.\r\n\r\nPotrivit interlocutorului nostru Hotelul Palace se va schimba în întregime la faţă. Şi nu numai. Vor fi oferite 93 de camere (cu standard de 4 stele), respectiv 39 de camere ( de 3 stele), iar capacitatea de cazare va creşte cu 57 de locuri. Faţada va fi refăcută conform aspectului iniţial. Serviciile turistice vor fi diversificate prin crearea unui Business Club unde vom organiza întâlniri de afaceri, prin realizarea a 2 săli de conferinţe la parterul hotelului, prin asigurarea conexiunii de internet în toate camerele. În ceea ce priveşte dezvoltarea bazei de agrement ea va încorpora sală de fitness, cabine de masaj, saune, solar. Complexul de tratament va fi amenajat, la rândul său, conform standardelor moderne întâlnite în centrele balneare internaţionale. Dotările vor fi şi ele făcute cu echipamente specifice - aparate de terapie cu laser, magnetoterapie, unde scurte, electroterapie, ultrasunete etc. Şi izvorul de apă termală va fi reabilitat.\r\n\r\nCe impact social şi economic va avea proiectul? Directorul Mihai Handolescu apreciază că „intrarea pe piaţă a complexului Palace Govora Spa va permite crearea de noi locuri de muncă (circa 180, temporare şi permanente) şi menţinerea celor existente. Estimăm că anual se vor caza aici peste 3.000 de turişti. E o cifră însemnată dacă ne gândim că pentru anul următor finalizării proiectului Băile Govora aşteaptă să primească în jur de 24.600 de turişti. Sunt aspecte stimulatoare pentru comunitatea locală de afaceri, formată din peste 200 de agenţi economici, dar şi pentru populaţia oraşului (circa 3.000 de locuitori) ce va avea noi oportunităţi de dezvoltare în turism. În plus, ne aşteptăm şi la o creştere a interesului investitorilor străini pentru staţiunea Băile Govora”.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n(Nr. 82, Ianuarie 2011)\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nANGELA SIMION & ALEX BARBU\r\n\r\n ','Epoque, boutique de Bucureşti ','','inherit','open','open','','140-revision-3','','','2011-03-15 17:29:14','2011-03-15 15:29:14','',140,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/140-revision-3/',0,'revision','',0),(148,1,'2011-03-15 17:41:45','2011-03-15 15:41:45','Coperta 82','Coperta 82','','inherit','open','open','','coperta-82','','','2011-03-15 17:41:45','2011-03-15 15:41:45','',121,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Coperta-82.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(149,1,'2011-03-15 17:23:40','2011-03-15 15:23:40','S-a lansat într-o o cascadă de gafe, sancţionată cu indulgenţă de consultanţii, proprietarii de agenţii sau de hoteluri prezenţi în sală. Aflat la un simpozion cu tema „Viitorul Turismului Românesc. Strategia digitală de promovare a României” ministrul Elena Udrea a epatat prin afirmaţii şocante. Preocupată de viitorul promovării ţării noastre pe Facebook, şi nu e nimic rău în asta, doamna Udrea a anunţat mai întâi un mare succes. A desfiinţat 7 din cele 17 birouri de turism din străinătate pentru că nu s-au dovedit eficiente. „Am economisit un milion de euro pe an, prin închiderea lor”. După părerea domniei sale azi nu mai intră nimeni în aceste Oficii naţionale de promovare. După umila noastră părere nu birourile ci majoritatea celor care au fost angajaţi să ducă această muncă reprezentativă pentru o ţară, poartă vina că România nu creşte în vizibilitate. Iar cei câţiva profesionişti, fac ce pot în comparaţie cu omologii din alte ţări, pentru că nu au bugete pentru manifestări. S-au plafonat. Au devenit simpli funcţionari care aprind luminile doar când vine să participe la vreun Târg internaţional de turism, o oficialitate a ministerului. Apoi lumina se stinge până la următorul spectacol. Da, e o performanţă, ţara a economisit un milion de euro, dar o singură dată. Urmează să fie risipite zeci de milioane, pentru prezenţe turistice în străinătate organizate la preţul... cel mai mic. Doamna ministru a a anunţat că a găsit soluţia pentru a înlocui rolul acestor birouri, şi ca atare se gândeşte să le desfiinţeze şi pe celelalte 10. Facebook, va face minuni, şi va relansa cu costuri mici, interesul uriaş al străinilor pentru ţara noastră. Ne-ar mai rămâne doar să ne pregătim graniţele şi aeroporturile pentru a fluidiza intrările masive ale acestora.\r\n\r\nAbsolutizarea Facebook, care este doar un instrument de marketing, l-a făcut pe unul dintre invitaţi - Scott Gallacher -, managing director The Aston Group, să tempereze avântul declaraţiilor. Facebook nu este o soluţie universală, care le înlocuieşte pe celelalte, electronice ori tradiţionale. Sistemul oferă oportunităţi nelimitate şi pentru promovarea turistică. Este, într-adevăr, ceva fabulos să poţi trimite mesaje la peste 243 de milioane de clienţi care consumă lunar pe platforma de socializare circa 500 de bilioane de minute. Dar trebuie să fim sinceri şi realişti. Călătorii au nevoie de emoţie, de gust, de atmosfera pe care nu ţi-o poate oferi informaţia electronică. Românii au poveşti minunate, dar trebuie să ştiţi să le spuneţi. Pentru aceasta aveţi nevoie de scriitori de poveşti.\r\n\r\n(Nr. 82, Ianuarie 2010)\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n ','Facebook e doar un instrument ','','inherit','open','open','','121-revision-6','','','2011-03-15 17:23:40','2011-03-15 15:23:40','',121,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/121-revision-6/',0,'revision','',0),(150,1,'2011-03-15 17:46:43','2011-03-15 15:46:43','![\"Corina](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/presedinti_corina_martin01.jpg\" "\\"Corina")

Maestrul cofetar Silvian Miron, a obţinut la individual 2 medalii de argint cu 2 sculpturi în ciocolată, reprezentând pe Vlad Ţepes, respectiv pe Regina Maria. Dar cea mai preţioasă medalie – cea de aur - a răsplătit piesa festivă din zahăr – “Frumoasa şi Bestia”, creată de maestrul cofetar Carmela Dragomir, care şi-a mai adjudecat şi o medalie de argint pentru piesa „Alice în Ţara minunilor”. Dragomir a făcut parte din singura echipă de femei prezentă la Luxemburg. “Performanţa este mai mult decât notabilă pentru reprezentanţii României. Ne aflăm pe un drum bun, cu atât mai mult cu cât rezultatele au fost obţinute de tineri ce nu depăşesc vârsta de 24 de ani. Ca manager al echipei trebuie să fiu însă realistă! Chiar dacă am făcut performanţă ne aflăm încă departe de “masa bogaţilor”.

Ramada Parc, Wynand Vogel (Olanda), Joseph Vella (Malta), Gordon Amato (Malta) şi Antonio Passarelli (România) au decis, după mai multe ore de evaluări, că Orlando Zaharia merită să câştige a doua ediţie a concursului „Bucătarul de Aur”. Astfel, unul dintre cei mai talentaţi tineri ai metropolei ( în 2006, la numai 25 de ani, a devenit Maestru în Arta Culinară), a intrat în posesia statuetei aurite pe care o va păstra, conform regulamentului, timp de un an. „Orlando poate fi numit un bucătar complet pentru că este pasionat de descoperirea de noi şi noi preparate, de modalităţi de lucru moderne ducând gastronomia la rang de artă” – a apreciat Passarelli. Câştigătorul a fost recompensat de Asociaţia „Chefmalta” cu un training de 5 zile la un restaurant de cinci stele din Malta.

Allure of the Seas este cea mai nouă navă a companiei de croaziere Royal Caribbean International.

Cu cât este mai lungă? Cu... 5 centimetri, adică are 360 de metri. Allure şi-a început drumul pe ocean, în ultima lună a anului trecut. Deţine multe performanţe tehnice dar este şi promotorul unor concepte unice de loisir, enterteiment, restauraţie, sport, spa etc. Cu o parte dintre acestea ne-am familiarizat la faţa locului, împreună cu câteva mii de travel agenţi şi câteva sute de jurnalişti şi editori de turism invitaţi la Fort Laudertale, din întreaga lume.\r\n\r\n“Royal Caribbean International Ltd. a fost fondată în 1969. Circa 75% din clienţi provin din America de Nord. Anul trecut cele 22 de nave pe care le deţinem în patrimoniu au frecventat 261 de porturi în 72 de ţări de pe 6 continente” – a declarat la conferinţa de presă Richard D. Fain, preşedinte şi CEO al Royal Caribbean Cruises LTD. O descriere a intimităţilor tehnice aparţine lui Adam Goldstein, preşedinte la Royal Caribbean Cruises: “Allure a fost construit la Turku în Finlanda, şi are o greutate de 225. 282 tone ca şi Oasis of the Seas. Nava a fost asamblată din 500 de părţi individuale. Lungimea conductelor în interiorul vasului depăşeşte 150 de mile iar cea a cablurilor electrice este de 3.300 de mile. Nava are 64 metri lăţime şi 65 înălţime de la linia apei. În interior funcţionează 24 de lifturi. Din cele 2.700 de camere, 1.959 au balcon. Capacitatea totală de cazare este de 6.318 de turişti, la care se adaugă 2.413 de membrii ai echipajului. Provin din peste 70 de ţări ale lumii”.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Allure-328-300x225.jpg\" "\\"Allure")
\r\n\r\nPrin ce diferă Allure, în ceea ce priveşte adresabilitatea, faţă de generaţiile anterioare de nave? Un răspuns l-a oferit Lisa Bauer, Senior Vice President – International: “Suntem încântaţi că am lansat servicii unice de la bordul navei Allure. Ele asigură suportul pentru o vacanţă memorabilă!

În fiecare an are loc o asemenea reuniune profesională, în care fiecare travel agent reprezentativ sau exclusiv al lui Royal Caribbean Internaţional, îşi promovează atracţiile turistice ale ţării de unde vine.

miniaturile magicului Vlad Ţepeş, toate s-au bucurat de succes. Eforturile private au fost coordonate de Raluca Alexandrescu, reprezentanta firmei World Travel. Toate fetele noastre au venit de peste ocean cu costume populare autentice. Printre personalităţile care ne-au vizitat standul s-au numărat Helen Beck, directorul regional pentru Europa Centrala şi de Est, directori, români angajaţi pe vas etc. O altă întâlnire deosebită am avut-o cu Betsy O’Rourke, Senior Vice President – Marketing, al Royal Caribbean, o bună cunoştinţă a revistei noastre de pe vremea când ocupa aceeaşi poziţie la Travel Industry Association of America (TIA), devenită azi US Travel Association.\r\n\r\nAventuri montane şi acvatice\r\n\r\nAmatorii de sport şi aventură vor fi complet satisfăcuţi cu oferta existentă pe ultimele două punţi. De la terenul de minigolf cu un “aer britanic”, ne îndreptăm spre cel unde se practică sporturi de echipă. Încercăm să găsim un loc la tiroliană, dar n-avem noroc să alunecăm şi noi pe cablul de oţel de-a lungul a mai bine de o sută de metri, prin faţa balcoanelor, unde se află turiştii curioşi să vadă... zburătorii. Totul e safe, cu instructori foarte severi. Un loc tare de tot sunt cele două bazine cu jeturi care imită valurile mării, pe care aluneci cu placa. Cum viteza apei este mult mai mare decât cea întâlnită în mediul natural, mulţi dintre amatori de surfing sunt aruncaţi şi răsturnaţi înapoi la punctul de pornire. Instructorii îi încurajează să mai încerce până reuşesc. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Allure-160-225x300.jpg\" "\\"Allure")
Dar poţi trăi şi o aventură... montană. Între etajele 15 şi 16 se află doi pereţi abrupţi pregătiţi pentru căţărători. Climbing-ul este la putere. Aşa că poţi să-ţi savurezi liniştit hamburger-ul ori hotdog-ul, la restaurantul Johnny Rockets, sau meniul de la Rita’s Catina - iute, condimentat, mexican -, şi să-i urmăreşti pe temerari, cum abordează la câţiva zeci de metri deasupra capului tău, suprafeţele dificile.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nÎmbrăţişări de la Fiona şi Shrek\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nNe aflăm pe Boardwalk. O punte în aer liber unde eşti întâmpinat de o expoziţie de sculptură, înconjurată de o colonie de pescăruşi de metal, o impresionantă creaţie artistică. Spaţiul reproduce atmosfera unui parc de distracţii, iar americanii apreciază acest loc. Aici există amfiteatrul de la Aqua Theater, ce deţine cel mai mare bazin acvatic existent pe vasele de croazieră. Seara au loc spectacole de lumini iar în timpul zilei demonstraţii acvatice ale animatorilor profesionişti. A meritat să facem câteva ture cu caruselul care ne-a amintit de farmecul copilăriei. Şi pentru că ne aflăm şi pe o planetă a copiilor trebuie să spunem că parada cu personajele din filme şi desene animate în vogă, a fost fascinantă. Copiii s-au întâlnit pe Royal Promenade celebrii Shrek, Fiona, care de altfel a devenit mascota lui Allure, Alex, Pinguinul şi Mort din “Madagascar”, Po din “Kung Fu Panda, Hiccup din “How to Train Your Dragon”, prinţi şi prinţese, motanul încălţat etc.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCe spune Molly Brandt ?\r\n\r\nDar şi aventura gastronomică e memorabilă. Pe vas există 26 de restaurante, cazinou, cinematografe, cafenele etc. Poţi intra la Sorrento, care aminteşte de pizza şi soarele Toscanei, la Central Park 150, unde poţi comanda meniul pe... Ipod. Chiar dacă nu cunoşti limba sau o anumită reţetă, ai posibilitatea să vizualizezi electronic ceea ce ai dori să mănânci. Giovanni, este un alt loc al pierzaniei gastronomice. Aici concurează o parte dintre cei mai cunoscuţi bucătari de pe Royal Caribbean Internaţional. Lider este Molly Brandt, absolventă a Culinary Institute of America şi câştigătoare a premiului “Allure of the Seas Culinari Challenge”. Amabilă, în timpul lansării Albumului cu cele mai celebre reţete ale echipei, Molly ne-a acordat un autograf pe un exemplar proaspăt tipărit. Despre experienţe gastronomice ne-a vorbit şi Cătălin Buta, Maître’D, unul dintre cei mai importanţi şefi de pe vas. Românul are în subordine mai bine de 200 de bucătari şi lucrători. A ajuns în această poziţie prin tenacitate şi dorinţa de a cunoaşte cât mai mult. De altfel cei peste 30 de români (plecaţi din Galaţi, Brăila, Braşov, Bucureşti, Arad, Ploieşti etc) care lucrează pe vas sunt bine văzuţi. Au ţinută, atitudine. Ce satisfacţii poţi să trăieşti pe un asemenea vas? Financiare şi profesionale. Apoi, nu dai nas în nas în fiecare zi cu Al Pacino, de exemplu, care tocmai terminase de filmat câteva scene. Cum să nu te simţi cineva, când numai la Restaurantul Adagio, dispus pe trei nivele, pot servi masa instantaneu 3.000 de persoane. Mai precis 3065. Poate e interesant să mai aflaţi că zilnic pe vas se folosesc 50.000 de litri de apă, doar pentru gheaţa din băuturi.\r\n\r\nExperienţe gastronomice de 5 stele puteţi să trăiţi şi la Samba Grill Brazilian Steakhouse. O cafea bună se întâlneşte la Starbucks, marcă prezentă în premieră pe un vas al Royal Caribbean.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nO plimbare prin...

Poate doriţi să renunţaţi în vacanţă la tabieturile electronice. Aveţi alternative extraordinare. Vă puteţi plimba prin... Central Park. O zonă verde pusă la punct de specialişti britanici, pe aproape o jumătate din suprafaţa punţii 8, de dimensiunea unui teren de fotbal. Central Park, denumit \"plămânul verde\" al oraşului plutitor, găzduieşte 12.175 de plante, 56 de bambuşi, o mare parte dintre aceştia cu o înălţime de circa 8 metri şi zeci de plante căţărătoare care decorează un perete înalt de 15 metri. Grădini luxuriante cu plante subtropicale din întreaga lume. Flori de iris, cale, ficuşi regali, măslini negri, îmbrăcând înălţimea echivalentă a aproximativ 5 punţi, crează un spaţiu relaxant. Conceptul aparţine firmei Atkins Global of Surrex din Marea Britanie, iar peisagistica specialiştilor de la The Waterfield Design Group din Winchester, respectiv Wilson Butler Associates din Boston. Aceştia au creat şi sistemele de drenaj, evaculare a apei de ploaie, de irigare şi control al micro-climatului din Central Park.\r\n\r\nTot în zona de agrement şi întreţinere aveţi ocazia de a face plajă ca la Miami Beach. În jurul unuia dintre bazine se află amenajată o plajă cu nisip natural. Dar aveţi la dispoziţie şi un complex de sănătate. Însoţitoarea noastră este chiar directorul Vitality Spa at Sea Spa. Irlandeza Aishling McCarthy ne spune că “centrul include 29 de camere şi suite de tratament, individuale şi pentru cupluri, pentru terapii antiîmbătrânire, şi ultimele generaţii de echipamente de întreţinere. Toate alcătuiesc cea mai mare colecţie de Spa de pe mare. Alături se află un Fitness Center ce oferă posibilitatea practicării 158 de programe de exerciţii. La final vă puteţi purifica bând una dintre licorile naturale la Vitality Cafe.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nBritto – un cavaler al culorilor\r\n\r\nSă facem şi o cură de cultură. La bordul vasului se află o colecţie formată din peste 7.000 de lucrări originale. Vedeta este Romero Britto. Un tip încântător. Este considerat a fi unul dintre cei mai valoroşi artişti pop contemporani. El a revoluţionat un spaţiu rezultat din fuziunea curentelor cubiste, suprarealiste, impresioniste. Are rădăcini adânc înfipte în stilurile lui Picasso şi Chagall şi în cultura tradiţională braziliană. Parteneriatul cu compania americană de croaziere a început în 2003, când artistul a decorat etajul cu piscinele de pe vasul Mariner of the Seas. Pe Allure a creat piese exclusive, printre care grădina cu fluturi din Central Park. Britto şi-a extins parteneriatul prin deschiderea primului magazin-galerie de artă cu vânzare. Operele sale sunt întâlnite în peste 100 de galerii de pe 5 continente. Romero Britto ne-a declarat în exclusivitate: “Apreciez arta europeană care ţine de o veche tradiţie şi istorie. Iubesc foarte mult America, unde am avut şansa să-mi descopăr talentul. Este un spaţiu tânăr şi tocmai de aceea inovaţia în artă este mult mai bine primită aici. Crezul meu artistic se rezumă la următoarele cuvinte: arta trebuie să fie accesibilă şi plăcută oamenilor de toate vârstele”.\r\n\r\nArtă? Să nu rataţi nici spectacolele. Blue Planet, un regal de acrobaţie şi jocuri de lumini; Ice Show, pe arii de operă şi operetă, unde apare chiar şi spiritul lui Dracula, al naibi prinţul ăsta român; How To Train Your Dragon, care îi va fascina pe copii; sau “Chicago”, care se joacă în versiunea originală.

Operele sale sunt întâlnite în peste 100 de galerii de pe 5 continente. Romero Britto ne-a declarat în exclusivitate: “Apreciez arta europeană care ţine de o veche tradiţie şi istorie. Iubesc foarte mult America, unde am avut şansa să-mi descopăr talentul. Este un spaţiu tânăr şi tocmai de aceea inovaţia în artă este mult mai bine primită aici.

Allure of the Seas este cea mai nouă navă a companiei de croaziere Royal Caribbean International. Este şi cea mai mare din lume, pentru că depăşeşte în lungime pe sora sau fratele ei, depinde cum priviţi lucrurile - Oasis of the Seas -, lansată la apă, în decembrie 2009.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCu cât este mai lungă? Cu... 5 centimetri, adică are 360 de metri. Allure şi-a început drumul pe ocean, în ultima lună a anului trecut. Deţine multe performanţe tehnice dar este şi promotorul unor concepte unice de loisir, enterteiment, restauraţie, sport, spa etc. Cu o parte dintre acestea ne-am familiarizat la faţa locului, împreună cu câteva mii de travel agenţi şi câteva sute de jurnalişti şi editori de turism invitaţi la Fort Laudertale, din întreaga lume.\r\n\r\n“Royal Caribbean International Ltd. a fost fondată în 1969. Circa 75% din clienţi provin din America de Nord. Anul trecut cele 22 de nave pe care le deţinem în patrimoniu au frecventat 261 de porturi în 72 de ţări de pe 6 continente” – a declarat la conferinţa de presă Richard D. Fain, preşedinte şi CEO al Royal Caribbean Cruises LTD. O descriere a intimităţilor tehnice aparţine lui Adam Goldstein, preşedinte la Royal Caribbean Cruises: “Allure a fost construit la Turku în Finlanda, şi are o greutate de 225. 282 tone ca şi Oasis of the Seas. Nava a fost asamblată din 500 de părţi individuale. Lungimea conductelor în interiorul vasului depăşeşte 150 de mile iar cea a cablurilor electrice este de 3.300 de mile. Nava are 64 metri lăţime şi 65 înălţime de la linia apei. În interior funcţionează 24 de lifturi. Din cele 2.700 de camere, 1.959 au balcon. Capacitatea totală de cazare este de 6.318 de turişti, la care se adaugă 2.413 de membrii ai echipajului. Provin din peste 70 de ţări ale lumii”.\r\n\r\nPrin ce diferă Allure, în ceea ce priveşte adresabilitatea, faţă de generaţiile anterioare de nave? Un răspuns l-a oferit Lisa Bauer, Senior Vice President – International: “Suntem încântaţi că am lansat servicii unice de la bordul navei Allure. Ele asigură suportul pentru o vacanţă memorabilă! Promovăm concepte distincte iar oaspeţii beneficiază din plin de varietatea programelor ce se adresează tuturor vârstelor şi stilurilor de viaţă”.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nUn eveniment original: World Exhibition ?\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCu o parte dintre aceste concepte ne-am familiarizat cu ocazia Word Exhibition, sau pe româneşte spus, Expoziţia Naţiunilor. În fiecare an are loc o asemenea reuniune profesională, în care fiecare travel agent reprezentativ sau exclusiv al lui Royal Caribbean Internaţional, îşi promovează atracţiile turistice ale ţării de unde vine. World Travel, companie condusă de familia Nicolae şi Carmen Demetriade, a apelat la o formă inspirată. De la micile suveniruri textile, până la piesele din ceramică, miniaturile magicului Vlad Ţepeş, toate s-au bucurat de succes. Eforturile private au fost coordonate de Raluca Alexandrescu, reprezentanta firmei World Travel. Toate fetele noastre au venit de peste ocean cu costume populare autentice. Printre personalităţile care ne-au vizitat standul s-au numărat Helen Beck, directorul regional pentru Europa Centrala şi de Est, directori, români angajaţi pe vas etc. O altă întâlnire deosebită am avut-o cu Betsy O’Rourke, Senior Vice President – Marketing, al Royal Caribbean, o bună cunoştinţă a revistei noastre de pe vremea când ocupa aceeaşi poziţie la Travel Industry Association of America (TIA), devenită azi US Travel Association.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nAventuri montane şi acvatice\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nAmatorii de sport şi aventură vor fi complet satisfăcuţi cu oferta existentă pe ultimele două punţi. De la terenul de minigolf cu un “aer britanic”, ne îndreptăm spre cel unde se practică sporturi de echipă. Încercăm să găsim un loc la tiroliană, dar n-avem noroc să alunecăm şi noi pe cablul de oţel de-a lungul a mai bine de o sută de metri, prin faţa balcoanelor, unde se află turiştii curioşi să vadă... zburătorii. Totul e safe, cu instructori foarte severi. Un loc tare de tot sunt cele două bazine cu jeturi care imită valurile mării, pe care aluneci cu placa. Cum viteza apei este mult mai mare decât cea întâlnită în mediul natural, mulţi dintre amatori de surfing sunt aruncaţi şi răsturnaţi înapoi la punctul de pornire. Instructorii îi încurajează să mai încerce până reuşesc. Dar poţi trăi şi o aventură... montană. Între etajele 15 şi 16 se află doi pereţi abrupţi pregătiţi pentru căţărători. Climbing-ul este la putere. Aşa că poţi să-ţi savurezi liniştit hamburger-ul ori hotdog-ul, la restaurantul Johnny Rockets, sau meniul de la Rita’s Catina - iute, condimentat, mexican -, şi să-i urmăreşti pe temerari, cum abordează la câţiva zeci de metri deasupra capului tău, suprafeţele dificile.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nÎmbrăţişări de la Fiona şi Shrek\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nNe aflăm pe Boardwalk. O punte în aer liber unde eşti întâmpinat de o expoziţie de sculptură, înconjurată de o colonie de pescăruşi de metal, o impresionantă creaţie artistică. Spaţiul reproduce atmosfera unui parc de distracţii, iar americanii apreciază acest loc. Aici există amfiteatrul de la Aqua Theater, ce deţine cel mai mare bazin acvatic existent pe vasele de croazieră. Seara au loc spectacole de lumini iar în timpul zilei demonstraţii acvatice ale animatorilor profesionişti. A meritat să facem câteva ture cu caruselul care ne-a amintit de farmecul copilăriei. Şi pentru că ne aflăm şi pe o planetă a copiilor trebuie să spunem că parada cu personajele din filme şi desene animate în vogă, a fost fascinantă. Copiii s-au întâlnit pe Royal Promenade celebrii Shrek, Fiona, care de altfel a devenit mascota lui Allure, Alex, Pinguinul şi Mort din “Madagascar”, Po din “Kung Fu Panda, Hiccup din “How to Train Your Dragon”, prinţi şi prinţese, motanul încălţat etc.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCe spune Molly Brandt ?\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nDar şi aventura gastronomică e memorabilă. Pe vas există 26 de restaurante, cazinou, cinematografe, cafenele etc. Poţi intra la Sorrento, care aminteşte de pizza şi soarele Toscanei, la Central Park 150, unde poţi comanda meniul pe... Ipod. Chiar dacă nu cunoşti limba sau o anumită reţetă, ai posibilitatea să vizualizezi electronic ceea ce ai dori să mănânci. Giovanni, este un alt loc al pierzaniei gastronomice. Aici concurează o parte dintre cei mai cunoscuţi bucătari de pe Royal Caribbean Internaţional. Lider este Molly Brandt, absolventă a Culinary Institute of America şi câştigătoare a premiului “Allure of the Seas Culinari Challenge”. Amabilă, în timpul lansării Albumului cu cele mai celebre reţete ale echipei, Molly ne-a acordat un autograf pe un exemplar proaspăt tipărit. Despre experienţe gastronomice ne-a vorbit şi Cătălin Buta, Maître’D, unul dintre cei mai importanţi şefi de pe vas. Românul are în subordine mai bine de 200 de bucătari şi lucrători. A ajuns în această poziţie prin tenacitate şi dorinţa de a cunoaşte cât mai mult. De altfel cei peste 30 de români (plecaţi din Galaţi, Brăila, Braşov, Bucureşti, Arad, Ploieşti etc) care lucrează pe vas sunt bine văzuţi. Au ţinută, atitudine. Ce satisfacţii poţi să trăieşti pe un asemenea vas? Financiare şi profesionale. Apoi, nu dai nas în nas în fiecare zi cu Al Pacino, de exemplu, care tocmai terminase de filmat câteva scene. Cum să nu te simţi cineva, când numai la Restaurantul Adagio, dispus pe trei nivele, pot servi masa instantaneu 3.000 de persoane. Mai precis 3065. Poate e interesant să mai aflaţi că zilnic pe vas se folosesc 50.000 de litri de apă, doar pentru gheaţa din băuturi.\r\n\r\nExperienţe gastronomice de 5 stele puteţi să trăiţi şi la Samba Grill Brazilian Steakhouse. O cafea bună se întâlneşte la Starbucks, marcă prezentă în premieră pe un vas al Royal Caribbean.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nO plimbare prin... Central Park\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nPoate doriţi să renunţaţi în vacanţă la tabieturile electronice. Aveţi alternative extraordinare. Vă puteţi plimba prin... Central Park. O zonă verde pusă la punct de specialişti britanici, pe aproape o jumătate din suprafaţa punţii 8, de dimensiunea unui teren de fotbal. Central Park, denumit \"plămânul verde\" al oraşului plutitor, găzduieşte 12.175 de plante, 56 de bambuşi, o mare parte dintre aceştia cu o înălţime de circa 8 metri şi zeci de plante căţărătoare care decorează un perete înalt de 15 metri. Grădini luxuriante cu plante subtropicale din întreaga lume. Flori de iris, cale, ficuşi regali, măslini negri, îmbrăcând înălţimea echivalentă a aproximativ 5 punţi, crează un spaţiu relaxant. Conceptul aparţine firmei Atkins Global of Surrex din Marea Britanie, iar peisagistica specialiştilor de la The Waterfield Design Group din Winchester, respectiv Wilson Butler Associates din Boston. Aceştia au creat şi sistemele de drenaj, evaculare a apei de ploaie, de irigare şi control al micro-climatului din Central Park.\r\n\r\nTot în zona de agrement şi întreţinere aveţi ocazia de a face plajă ca la Miami Beach. În jurul unuia dintre bazine se află amenajată o plajă cu nisip natural. Dar aveţi la dispoziţie şi un complex de sănătate. Însoţitoarea noastră este chiar directorul Vitality Spa at Sea Spa. Irlandeza Aishling McCarthy ne spune că “centrul include 29 de camere şi suite de tratament, individuale şi pentru cupluri, pentru terapii antiîmbătrânire, şi ultimele generaţii de echipamente de întreţinere. Toate alcătuiesc cea mai mare colecţie de Spa de pe mare. Alături se află un Fitness Center ce oferă posibilitatea practicării 158 de programe de exerciţii. La final vă puteţi purifica bând una dintre licorile naturale la Vitality Cafe.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nBritto – un cavaler al culorilor\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nSă facem şi o cură de cultură. La bordul vasului se află o colecţie formată din peste 7.000 de lucrări originale. Vedeta este Romero Britto. Un tip încântător. Este considerat a fi unul dintre cei mai valoroşi artişti pop contemporani. El a revoluţionat un spaţiu rezultat din fuziunea curentelor cubiste, suprarealiste, impresioniste. Are rădăcini adânc înfipte în stilurile lui Picasso şi Chagall şi în cultura tradiţională braziliană. Parteneriatul cu compania americană de croaziere a început în 2003, când artistul a decorat etajul cu piscinele de pe vasul Mariner of the Seas.

Allure of the Seas este cea mai nouă navă a companiei de croaziere Royal Caribbean International. Este şi cea mai mare din lume, pentru că depăşeşte în lungime pe sora sau fratele ei, depinde cum priviţi lucrurile - Oasis of the Seas -, lansată la apă, în decembrie 2009.\r\n\r\nCu cât este mai lungă? Cu... 5 centimetri, adică are 360 de metri. Allure şi-a început drumul pe ocean, în ultima lună a anului trecut. Deţine multe performanţe tehnice dar este şi promotorul unor concepte unice de loisir, enterteiment, restauraţie, sport, spa etc. Cu o parte dintre acestea ne-am familiarizat la faţa locului, împreună cu câteva mii de travel agenţi şi câteva sute de jurnalişti şi editori de turism invitaţi la Fort Laudertale, din întreaga lume.\r\n\r\n“Royal Caribbean International Ltd. a fost fondată în 1969. Circa 75% din clienţi provin din America de Nord. Anul trecut cele 22 de nave pe care le deţinem în patrimoniu au frecventat 261 de porturi în 72 de ţări de pe 6 continente” – a declarat la conferinţa de presă Richard D. Fain, preşedinte şi CEO al Royal Caribbean Cruises LTD. O descriere a intimităţilor tehnice aparţine lui Adam Goldstein, preşedinte la Royal Caribbean Cruises: “Allure a fost construit la Turku în Finlanda, şi are o greutate de 225. 282 tone ca şi Oasis of the Seas. Nava a fost asamblată din 500 de părţi individuale. Lungimea conductelor în interiorul vasului depăşeşte 150 de mile iar cea a cablurilor electrice este de 3.300 de mile. Nava are 64 metri lăţime şi 65 înălţime de la linia apei. În interior funcţionează 24 de lifturi. Din cele 2.700 de camere, 1.959 au balcon. Capacitatea totală de cazare este de 6.318 de turişti, la care se adaugă 2.413 de membrii ai echipajului. Provin din peste 70 de ţări ale lumii”.\r\n\r\nPrin ce diferă Allure, în ceea ce priveşte adresabilitatea, faţă de generaţiile anterioare de nave? Un răspuns l-a oferit Lisa Bauer, Senior Vice President – International: “Suntem încântaţi că am lansat servicii unice de la bordul navei Allure. Ele asigură suportul pentru o vacanţă memorabilă! Promovăm concepte distincte iar oaspeţii beneficiază din plin de varietatea programelor ce se adresează tuturor vârstelor şi stilurilor de viaţă”.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nUn eveniment original: World Exhibition ?\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCu o parte dintre aceste concepte ne-am familiarizat cu ocazia Word Exhibition, sau pe româneşte spus, Expoziţia Naţiunilor. În fiecare an are loc o asemenea reuniune profesională, în care fiecare travel agent reprezentativ sau exclusiv al lui Royal Caribbean Internaţional, îşi promovează atracţiile turistice ale ţării de unde vine. World Travel, companie condusă de familia Nicolae şi Carmen Demetriade, a apelat la o formă inspirată. De la micile suveniruri textile, până la piesele din ceramică, miniaturile magicului Vlad Ţepeş, toate s-au bucurat de succes. Eforturile private au fost coordonate de Raluca Alexandrescu, reprezentanta firmei World Travel. Toate fetele noastre au venit de peste ocean cu costume populare autentice. Printre personalităţile care ne-au vizitat standul s-au numărat Helen Beck, directorul regional pentru Europa Centrala şi de Est, directori, români angajaţi pe vas etc. O altă întâlnire deosebită am avut-o cu Betsy O’Rourke, Senior Vice President – Marketing, al Royal Caribbean, o bună cunoştinţă a revistei noastre de pe vremea când ocupa aceeaşi poziţie la Travel Industry Association of America (TIA), devenită azi US Travel Association.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nAventuri montane şi acvatice\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nAmatorii de sport şi aventură vor fi complet satisfăcuţi cu oferta existentă pe ultimele două punţi. De la terenul de minigolf cu un “aer britanic”, ne îndreptăm spre cel unde se practică sporturi de echipă. Încercăm să găsim un loc la tiroliană, dar n-avem noroc să alunecăm şi noi pe cablul de oţel de-a lungul a mai bine de o sută de metri, prin faţa balcoanelor, unde se află turiştii curioşi să vadă... zburătorii. Totul e safe, cu instructori foarte severi. Un loc tare de tot sunt cele două bazine cu jeturi care imită valurile mării, pe care aluneci cu placa. Cum viteza apei este mult mai mare decât cea întâlnită în mediul natural, mulţi dintre amatori de surfing sunt aruncaţi şi răsturnaţi înapoi la punctul de pornire. Instructorii îi încurajează să mai încerce până reuşesc. Dar poţi trăi şi o aventură... montană. Între etajele 15 şi 16 se află doi pereţi abrupţi pregătiţi pentru căţărători. Climbing-ul este la putere. Aşa că poţi să-ţi savurezi liniştit hamburger-ul ori hotdog-ul, la restaurantul Johnny Rockets, sau meniul de la Rita’s Catina - iute, condimentat, mexican -, şi să-i urmăreşti pe temerari, cum abordează la câţiva zeci de metri deasupra capului tău, suprafeţele dificile.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nÎmbrăţişări de la Fiona şi Shrek\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nNe aflăm pe Boardwalk. O punte în aer liber unde eşti întâmpinat de o expoziţie de sculptură, înconjurată de o colonie de pescăruşi de metal, o impresionantă creaţie artistică. Spaţiul reproduce atmosfera unui parc de distracţii, iar americanii apreciază acest loc. Aici există amfiteatrul de la Aqua Theater, ce deţine cel mai mare bazin acvatic existent pe vasele de croazieră. Seara au loc spectacole de lumini iar în timpul zilei demonstraţii acvatice ale animatorilor profesionişti. A meritat să facem câteva ture cu caruselul care ne-a amintit de farmecul copilăriei. Şi pentru că ne aflăm şi pe o planetă a copiilor trebuie să spunem că parada cu personajele din filme şi desene animate în vogă, a fost fascinantă. Copiii s-au întâlnit pe Royal Promenade celebrii Shrek, Fiona, care de altfel a devenit mascota lui Allure, Alex, Pinguinul şi Mort din “Madagascar”, Po din “Kung Fu Panda, Hiccup din “How to Train Your Dragon”, prinţi şi prinţese, motanul încălţat etc.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCe spune Molly Brandt ?\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nDar şi aventura gastronomică e memorabilă. Pe vas există 26 de restaurante, cazinou, cinematografe, cafenele etc. Poţi intra la Sorrento, care aminteşte de pizza şi soarele Toscanei, la Central Park 150, unde poţi comanda meniul pe... Ipod. Chiar dacă nu cunoşti limba sau o anumită reţetă, ai posibilitatea să vizualizezi electronic ceea ce ai dori să mănânci. Giovanni, este un alt loc al pierzaniei gastronomice. Aici concurează o parte dintre cei mai cunoscuţi bucătari de pe Royal Caribbean Internaţional. Lider este Molly Brandt, absolventă a Culinary Institute of America şi câştigătoare a premiului “Allure of the Seas Culinari Challenge”. Amabilă, în timpul lansării Albumului cu cele mai celebre reţete ale echipei, Molly ne-a acordat un autograf pe un exemplar proaspăt tipărit. Despre experienţe gastronomice ne-a vorbit şi Cătălin Buta, Maître’D, unul dintre cei mai importanţi şefi de pe vas. Românul are în subordine mai bine de 200 de bucătari şi lucrători. A ajuns în această poziţie prin tenacitate şi dorinţa de a cunoaşte cât mai mult. De altfel cei peste 30 de români (plecaţi din Galaţi, Brăila, Braşov, Bucureşti, Arad, Ploieşti etc) care lucrează pe vas sunt bine văzuţi. Au ţinută, atitudine. Ce satisfacţii poţi să trăieşti pe un asemenea vas? Financiare şi profesionale. Apoi, nu dai nas în nas în fiecare zi cu Al Pacino, de exemplu, care tocmai terminase de filmat câteva scene. Cum să nu te simţi cineva, când numai la Restaurantul Adagio, dispus pe trei nivele, pot servi masa instantaneu 3.000 de persoane. Mai precis 3065. Poate e interesant să mai aflaţi că zilnic pe vas se folosesc 50.000 de litri de apă, doar pentru gheaţa din băuturi.\r\n\r\nExperienţe gastronomice de 5 stele puteţi să trăiţi şi la Samba Grill Brazilian Steakhouse. O cafea bună se întâlneşte la Starbucks, marcă prezentă în premieră pe un vas al Royal Caribbean.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nO plimbare prin... Central Park\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nPoate doriţi să renunţaţi în vacanţă la tabieturile electronice. Aveţi alternative extraordinare. Vă puteţi plimba prin... Central Park. O zonă verde pusă la punct de specialişti britanici, pe aproape o jumătate din suprafaţa punţii 8, de dimensiunea unui teren de fotbal. Central Park, denumit \"plămânul verde\" al oraşului plutitor, găzduieşte 12.175 de plante, 56 de bambuşi, o mare parte dintre aceştia cu o înălţime de circa 8 metri şi zeci de plante căţărătoare care decorează un perete înalt de 15 metri. Grădini luxuriante cu plante subtropicale din întreaga lume. Flori de iris, cale, ficuşi regali, măslini negri, îmbrăcând înălţimea echivalentă a aproximativ 5 punţi, crează un spaţiu relaxant. Conceptul aparţine firmei Atkins Global of Surrex din Marea Britanie, iar peisagistica specialiştilor de la The Waterfield Design Group din Winchester, respectiv Wilson Butler Associates din Boston. Aceştia au creat şi sistemele de drenaj, evaculare a apei de ploaie, de irigare şi control al micro-climatului din Central Park.\r\n\r\nTot în zona de agrement şi întreţinere aveţi ocazia de a face plajă ca la Miami Beach. În jurul unuia dintre bazine se află amenajată o plajă cu nisip natural. Dar aveţi la dispoziţie şi un complex de sănătate. Însoţitoarea noastră este chiar directorul Vitality Spa at Sea Spa. Irlandeza Aishling McCarthy ne spune că “centrul include 29 de camere şi suite de tratament, individuale şi pentru cupluri, pentru terapii antiîmbătrânire, şi ultimele generaţii de echipamente de întreţinere. Toate alcătuiesc cea mai mare colecţie de Spa de pe mare. Alături se află un Fitness Center ce oferă posibilitatea practicării 158 de programe de exerciţii. La final vă puteţi purifica bând una dintre licorile naturale la Vitality Cafe.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nBritto – un cavaler al culorilor\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nSă facem şi o cură de cultură. La bordul vasului se află o colecţie formată din peste 7.000 de lucrări originale. Vedeta este Romero Britto. Un tip încântător. Este considerat a fi unul dintre cei mai valoroşi artişti pop contemporani. El a revoluţionat un spaţiu rezultat din fuziunea curentelor cubiste, suprarealiste, impresioniste. Are rădăcini adânc înfipte în stilurile lui Picasso şi Chagall şi în cultura tradiţională braziliană. Parteneriatul cu compania americană de croaziere a început în 2003, când artistul a decorat etajul cu piscinele de pe vasul Mariner of the Seas. Pe Allure a creat piese exclusive, printre care grădina cu fluturi din Central Park. Britto şi-a extins parteneriatul prin deschiderea primului magazin-galerie de artă cu vânzare. Operele sale sunt întâlnite în peste 100 de galerii de pe 5 continente. Romero Britto ne-a declarat în exclusivitate: “Apreciez arta europeană care ţine de o veche tradiţie şi istorie. Iubesc foarte mult America, unde am avut şansa să-mi descopăr talentul. Este un spaţiu tânăr şi tocmai de aceea inovaţia în artă este mult mai bine primită aici.

Anul trecut cele 22 de nave pe care le deţinem în patrimoniu au frecventat 261 de porturi în 72 de ţări de pe 6 continente” – a declarat la conferinţa de presă Richard D. Fain, preşedinte şi CEO al Royal Caribbean Cruises LTD. O descriere a intimităţilor tehnice aparţine lui Adam Goldstein, preşedinte la Royal Caribbean Cruises: “Allure a fost construit la Turku în Finlanda, şi are o greutate de 225. 282 tone ca şi Oasis of the Seas. Nava a fost asamblată din 500 de părţi individuale. Lungimea conductelor în interiorul vasului depăşeşte 150 de mile iar cea a cablurilor electrice este de 3.300 de mile. Nava are 64 metri lăţime şi 65 înălţime de la linia apei. În interior funcţionează 24 de lifturi. Din cele 2.700 de camere, 1.959 au balcon. Capacitatea totală de cazare este de 6.318 de turişti, la care se adaugă 2.413 de membrii ai echipajului. Provin din peste 70 de ţări ale lumii”.\r\n\r\nPrin ce diferă Allure, în ceea ce priveşte adresabilitatea, faţă de generaţiile anterioare de nave? Un răspuns l-a oferit Lisa Bauer, Senior Vice President – International: “Suntem încântaţi că am lansat servicii unice de la bordul navei Allure. Ele asigură suportul pentru o vacanţă memorabilă! Promovăm concepte distincte iar oaspeţii beneficiază din plin de varietatea programelor ce se adresează tuturor vârstelor şi stilurilor de viaţă”.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nUn eveniment original: World Exhibition ?\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCu o parte dintre aceste concepte ne-am familiarizat cu ocazia Word Exhibition, sau pe româneşte spus, Expoziţia Naţiunilor. În fiecare an are loc o asemenea reuniune profesională, în care fiecare travel agent reprezentativ sau exclusiv al lui Royal Caribbean Internaţional, îşi promovează atracţiile turistice ale ţării de unde vine. World Travel, companie condusă de familia Nicolae şi Carmen Demetriade, a apelat la o formă inspirată. De la micile suveniruri textile, până la piesele din ceramică, miniaturile magicului Vlad Ţepeş, toate s-au bucurat de succes. Eforturile private au fost coordonate de Raluca Alexandrescu, reprezentanta firmei World Travel. Toate fetele noastre au venit de peste ocean cu costume populare autentice. Printre personalităţile care ne-au vizitat standul s-au numărat Helen Beck, directorul regional pentru Europa Centrala şi de Est, directori, români angajaţi pe vas etc. O altă întâlnire deosebită am avut-o cu Betsy O’Rourke, Senior Vice President – Marketing, al Royal Caribbean, o bună cunoştinţă a revistei noastre de pe vremea când ocupa aceeaşi poziţie la Travel Industry Association of America (TIA), devenită azi US Travel Association.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nAventuri montane şi acvatice\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nAmatorii de sport şi aventură vor fi complet satisfăcuţi cu oferta existentă pe ultimele două punţi. De la terenul de minigolf cu un “aer britanic”, ne îndreptăm spre cel unde se practică sporturi de echipă. Încercăm să găsim un loc la tiroliană, dar n-avem noroc să alunecăm şi noi pe cablul de oţel de-a lungul a mai bine de o sută de metri, prin faţa balcoanelor, unde se află turiştii curioşi să vadă... zburătorii. Totul e safe, cu instructori foarte severi. Un loc tare de tot sunt cele două bazine cu jeturi care imită valurile mării, pe care aluneci cu placa. Cum viteza apei este mult mai mare decât cea întâlnită în mediul natural, mulţi dintre amatori de surfing sunt aruncaţi şi răsturnaţi înapoi la punctul de pornire. Instructorii îi încurajează să mai încerce până reuşesc. Dar poţi trăi şi o aventură... montană. Între etajele 15 şi 16 se află doi pereţi abrupţi pregătiţi pentru căţărători. Climbing-ul este la putere. Aşa că poţi să-ţi savurezi liniştit hamburger-ul ori hotdog-ul, la restaurantul Johnny Rockets, sau meniul de la Rita’s Catina - iute, condimentat, mexican -, şi să-i urmăreşti pe temerari, cum abordează la câţiva zeci de metri deasupra capului tău, suprafeţele dificile.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nÎmbrăţişări de la Fiona şi Shrek\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nNe aflăm pe Boardwalk. O punte în aer liber unde eşti întâmpinat de o expoziţie de sculptură, înconjurată de o colonie de pescăruşi de metal, o impresionantă creaţie artistică. Spaţiul reproduce atmosfera unui parc de distracţii, iar americanii apreciază acest loc. Aici există amfiteatrul de la Aqua Theater, ce deţine cel mai mare bazin acvatic existent pe vasele de croazieră. Seara au loc spectacole de lumini iar în timpul zilei demonstraţii acvatice ale animatorilor profesionişti. A meritat să facem câteva ture cu caruselul care ne-a amintit de farmecul copilăriei. Şi pentru că ne aflăm şi pe o planetă a copiilor trebuie să spunem că parada cu personajele din filme şi desene animate în vogă, a fost fascinantă. Copiii s-au întâlnit pe Royal Promenade celebrii Shrek, Fiona, care de altfel a devenit mascota lui Allure, Alex, Pinguinul şi Mort din “Madagascar”, Po din “Kung Fu Panda, Hiccup din “How to Train Your Dragon”, prinţi şi prinţese, motanul încălţat etc.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCe spune Molly Brandt ?\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nDar şi aventura gastronomică e memorabilă. Pe vas există 26 de restaurante, cazinou, cinematografe, cafenele etc. Poţi intra la Sorrento, care aminteşte de pizza şi soarele Toscanei, la Central Park 150, unde poţi comanda meniul pe... Ipod. Chiar dacă nu cunoşti limba sau o anumită reţetă, ai posibilitatea să vizualizezi electronic ceea ce ai dori să mănânci. Giovanni, este un alt loc al pierzaniei gastronomice. Aici concurează o parte dintre cei mai cunoscuţi bucătari de pe Royal Caribbean Internaţional. Lider este Molly Brandt, absolventă a Culinary Institute of America şi câştigătoare a premiului “Allure of the Seas Culinari Challenge”. Amabilă, în timpul lansării Albumului cu cele mai celebre reţete ale echipei, Molly ne-a acordat un autograf pe un exemplar proaspăt tipărit. Despre experienţe gastronomice ne-a vorbit şi Cătălin Buta, Maître’D, unul dintre cei mai importanţi şefi de pe vas. Românul are în subordine mai bine de 200 de bucătari şi lucrători. A ajuns în această poziţie prin tenacitate şi dorinţa de a cunoaşte cât mai mult. De altfel cei peste 30 de români (plecaţi din Galaţi, Brăila, Braşov, Bucureşti, Arad, Ploieşti etc) care lucrează pe vas sunt bine văzuţi. Au ţinută, atitudine. Ce satisfacţii poţi să trăieşti pe un asemenea vas? Financiare şi profesionale. Apoi, nu dai nas în nas în fiecare zi cu Al Pacino, de exemplu, care tocmai terminase de filmat câteva scene. Cum să nu te simţi cineva, când numai la Restaurantul Adagio, dispus pe trei nivele, pot servi masa instantaneu 3.000 de persoane. Mai precis 3065. Poate e interesant să mai aflaţi că zilnic pe vas se folosesc 50.000 de litri de apă, doar pentru gheaţa din băuturi.\r\n\r\nExperienţe gastronomice de 5 stele puteţi să trăiţi şi la Samba Grill Brazilian Steakhouse. O cafea bună se întâlneşte la Starbucks, marcă prezentă în premieră pe un vas al Royal Caribbean.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nO plimbare prin... Central Park\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nPoate doriţi să renunţaţi în vacanţă la tabieturile electronice. Aveţi alternative extraordinare. Vă puteţi plimba prin... Central Park. O zonă verde pusă la punct de specialişti britanici, pe aproape o jumătate din suprafaţa punţii 8, de dimensiunea unui teren de fotbal. Central Park, denumit \"plămânul verde\" al oraşului plutitor, găzduieşte 12.175 de plante, 56 de bambuşi, o mare parte dintre aceştia cu o înălţime de circa 8 metri şi zeci de plante căţărătoare care decorează un perete înalt de 15 metri. Grădini luxuriante cu plante subtropicale din întreaga lume. Flori de iris, cale, ficuşi regali, măslini negri, îmbrăcând înălţimea echivalentă a aproximativ 5 punţi, crează un spaţiu relaxant. Conceptul aparţine firmei Atkins Global of Surrex din Marea Britanie, iar peisagistica specialiştilor de la The Waterfield Design Group din Winchester, respectiv Wilson Butler Associates din Boston. Aceştia au creat şi sistemele de drenaj, evaculare a apei de ploaie, de irigare şi control al micro-climatului din Central Park.\r\n\r\nTot în zona de agrement şi întreţinere aveţi ocazia de a face plajă ca la Miami Beach. În jurul unuia dintre bazine se află amenajată o plajă cu nisip natural. Dar aveţi la dispoziţie şi un complex de sănătate. Însoţitoarea noastră este chiar directorul Vitality Spa at Sea Spa. Irlandeza Aishling McCarthy ne spune că “centrul include 29 de camere şi suite de tratament, individuale şi pentru cupluri, pentru terapii antiîmbătrânire, şi ultimele generaţii de echipamente de întreţinere. Toate alcătuiesc cea mai mare colecţie de Spa de pe mare. Alături se află un Fitness Center ce oferă posibilitatea practicării 158 de programe de exerciţii. La final vă puteţi purifica bând una dintre licorile naturale la Vitality Cafe.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nBritto – un cavaler al culorilor\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nSă facem şi o cură de cultură. La bordul vasului se află o colecţie formată din peste 7.000 de lucrări originale. Vedeta este Romero Britto. Un tip încântător. Este considerat a fi unul dintre cei mai valoroşi artişti pop contemporani. El a revoluţionat un spaţiu rezultat din fuziunea curentelor cubiste, suprarealiste, impresioniste. Are rădăcini adânc înfipte în stilurile lui Picasso şi Chagall şi în cultura tradiţională braziliană. Parteneriatul cu compania americană de croaziere a început în 2003, când artistul a decorat etajul cu piscinele de pe vasul Mariner of the Seas. Pe Allure a creat piese exclusive, printre care grădina cu fluturi din Central Park. Britto şi-a extins parteneriatul prin deschiderea primului magazin-galerie de artă cu vânzare. Operele sale sunt întâlnite în peste 100 de galerii de pe 5 continente. Romero Britto ne-a declarat în exclusivitate: “Apreciez arta europeană care ţine de o veche tradiţie şi istorie. Iubesc foarte mult America, unde am avut şansa să-mi descopăr talentul. Este un spaţiu tânăr şi tocmai de aceea inovaţia în artă este mult mai bine primită aici. Crezul meu artistic se rezumă la următoarele cuvinte: arta trebuie să fie accesibilă şi plăcută oamenilor de toate vârstele”.\r\n\r\nArtă? Să nu rataţi nici spectacolele. Blue Planet, un regal de acrobaţie şi jocuri de lumini; Ice Show, pe arii de operă şi operetă, unde apare chiar şi spiritul lui Dracula, al naibi prinţul ăsta român; How To Train Your Dragon, care îi va fascina pe copii; sau “Chicago”, care se joacă în versiunea originală. Călătorie plăcută.\r\n\r\nNr.82, Ianuarie 2011)\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nMulţumiri pentru sprijinul acordat ROYAL CARIBBEAN INTERNATIONAL şi WORLD TRAVEL\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','ALLURE OF THE SEAS – Un vas revoluţionar !','','inherit','open','open','','167-revision-6','','','2011-03-15 18:18:30','2011-03-15 16:18:30','',167,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/167-revision-6/',0,'revision','',0),(181,1,'2011-03-15 18:21:39','2011-03-15 16:21:39','','Allure 160','','inherit','open','open','','allure-160','','','2011-03-15 18:21:39','2011-03-15 16:21:39','',167,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Allure-160.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(182,1,'2011-03-15 18:20:27','2011-03-15 16:20:27','Absolut, este vorba de o revoluţie în lumea croazierelor.

Capacitatea totală de cazare este de 6.318 de turişti, la care se adaugă 2.413 de membrii ai echipajului.

Un răspuns l-a oferit Lisa Bauer, Senior Vice President – International: “Suntem încântaţi că am lansat servicii unice de la bordul navei Allure. Ele asigură suportul pentru o vacanţă memorabilă! Promovăm concepte distincte iar oaspeţii beneficiază din plin de varietatea programelor ce se adresează tuturor vârstelor şi stilurilor de viaţă”.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nUn eveniment original: World Exhibition ?\r\n\r\nCu o parte dintre aceste concepte ne-am familiarizat cu ocazia Word Exhibition, sau pe româneşte spus, Expoziţia Naţiunilor. În fiecare an are loc o asemenea reuniune profesională, în care fiecare travel agent reprezentativ sau exclusiv al lui Royal Caribbean Internaţional, îşi promovează atracţiile turistice ale ţării de unde vine. World Travel, companie condusă de familia Nicolae şi Carmen Demetriade, a apelat la o formă inspirată. De la micile suveniruri textile, până la piesele din ceramică, miniaturile magicului Vlad Ţepeş, toate s-au bucurat de succes. Eforturile private au fost coordonate de Raluca Alexandrescu, reprezentanta firmei World Travel. Toate fetele noastre au venit de peste ocean cu costume populare autentice. Printre personalităţile care ne-au vizitat standul s-au numărat Helen Beck, directorul regional pentru Europa Centrala şi de Est, directori, români angajaţi pe vas etc. O altă întâlnire deosebită am avut-o cu Betsy O’Rourke, Senior Vice President – Marketing, al Royal Caribbean, o bună cunoştinţă a revistei noastre de pe vremea când ocupa aceeaşi poziţie la Travel Industry Association of America (TIA), devenită azi US Travel Association.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nAventuri montane şi acvatice\r\n\r\nAmatorii de sport şi aventură vor fi complet satisfăcuţi cu oferta existentă pe ultimele două punţi. De la terenul de minigolf cu un “aer britanic”, ne îndreptăm spre cel unde se practică sporturi de echipă. Încercăm să găsim un loc la tiroliană, dar n-avem noroc să alunecăm şi noi pe cablul de oţel de-a lungul a mai bine de o sută de metri, prin faţa balcoanelor, unde se află turiştii curioşi să vadă... zburătorii. Totul e safe, cu instructori foarte severi. Un loc tare de tot sunt cele două bazine cu jeturi care imită valurile mării, pe care aluneci cu placa. Cum viteza apei este mult mai mare decât cea întâlnită în mediul natural, mulţi dintre amatori de surfing sunt aruncaţi şi răsturnaţi înapoi la punctul de pornire. Instructorii îi încurajează să mai încerce până reuşesc. Dar poţi trăi şi o aventură... montană. Între etajele 15 şi 16 se află doi pereţi abrupţi pregătiţi pentru căţărători. Climbing-ul este la putere. Aşa că poţi să-ţi savurezi liniştit hamburger-ul ori hotdog-ul, la restaurantul Johnny Rockets, sau meniul de la Rita’s Catina - iute, condimentat, mexican -, şi să-i urmăreşti pe temerari, cum abordează la câţiva zeci de metri deasupra capului tău, suprafeţele dificile.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nÎmbrăţişări de la Fiona şi Shrek\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nNe aflăm pe Boardwalk. O punte în aer liber unde eşti întâmpinat de o expoziţie de sculptură, înconjurată de o colonie de pescăruşi de metal, o impresionantă creaţie artistică. Spaţiul reproduce atmosfera unui parc de distracţii, iar americanii apreciază acest loc. Aici există amfiteatrul de la Aqua Theater, ce deţine cel mai mare bazin acvatic existent pe vasele de croazieră. Seara au loc spectacole de lumini iar în timpul zilei demonstraţii acvatice ale animatorilor profesionişti. A meritat să facem câteva ture cu caruselul care ne-a amintit de farmecul copilăriei. Şi pentru că ne aflăm şi pe o planetă a copiilor trebuie să spunem că parada cu personajele din filme şi desene animate în vogă, a fost fascinantă. Copiii s-au întâlnit pe Royal Promenade celebrii Shrek, Fiona, care de altfel a devenit mascota lui Allure, Alex, Pinguinul şi Mort din “Madagascar”, Po din “Kung Fu Panda, Hiccup din “How to Train Your Dragon”, prinţi şi prinţese, motanul încălţat etc.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCe spune Molly Brandt ?\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nDar şi aventura gastronomică e memorabilă. Pe vas există 26 de restaurante, cazinou, cinematografe, cafenele etc. Poţi intra la Sorrento, care aminteşte de pizza şi soarele Toscanei, la Central Park 150, unde poţi comanda meniul pe... Ipod. Chiar dacă nu cunoşti limba sau o anumită reţetă, ai posibilitatea să vizualizezi electronic ceea ce ai dori să mănânci. Giovanni, este un alt loc al pierzaniei gastronomice. Aici concurează o parte dintre cei mai cunoscuţi bucătari de pe Royal Caribbean Internaţional. Lider este Molly Brandt, absolventă a Culinary Institute of America şi câştigătoare a premiului “Allure of the Seas Culinari Challenge”. Amabilă, în timpul lansării Albumului cu cele mai celebre reţete ale echipei, Molly ne-a acordat un autograf pe un exemplar proaspăt tipărit. Despre experienţe gastronomice ne-a vorbit şi Cătălin Buta, Maître’D, unul dintre cei mai importanţi şefi de pe vas. Românul are în subordine mai bine de 200 de bucătari şi lucrători. A ajuns în această poziţie prin tenacitate şi dorinţa de a cunoaşte cât mai mult. De altfel cei peste 30 de români (plecaţi din Galaţi, Brăila, Braşov, Bucureşti, Arad, Ploieşti etc) care lucrează pe vas sunt bine văzuţi. Au ţinută, atitudine. Ce satisfacţii poţi să trăieşti pe un asemenea vas? Financiare şi profesionale. Apoi, nu dai nas în nas în fiecare zi cu Al Pacino, de exemplu, care tocmai terminase de filmat câteva scene. Cum să nu te simţi cineva, când numai la Restaurantul Adagio, dispus pe trei nivele, pot servi masa instantaneu 3.000 de persoane. Mai precis 3065. Poate e interesant să mai aflaţi că zilnic pe vas se folosesc 50.000 de litri de apă, doar pentru gheaţa din băuturi.\r\n\r\nExperienţe gastronomice de 5 stele puteţi să trăiţi şi la Samba Grill Brazilian Steakhouse. O cafea bună se întâlneşte la Starbucks, marcă prezentă în premieră pe un vas al Royal Caribbean.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nO plimbare prin... Central Park\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nPoate doriţi să renunţaţi în vacanţă la tabieturile electronice. Aveţi alternative extraordinare. Vă puteţi plimba prin... Central Park. O zonă verde pusă la punct de specialişti britanici, pe aproape o jumătate din suprafaţa punţii 8, de dimensiunea unui teren de fotbal. Central Park, denumit \"plămânul verde\" al oraşului plutitor, găzduieşte 12.175 de plante, 56 de bambuşi, o mare parte dintre aceştia cu o înălţime de circa 8 metri şi zeci de plante căţărătoare care decorează un perete înalt de 15 metri. Grădini luxuriante cu plante subtropicale din întreaga lume. Flori de iris, cale, ficuşi regali, măslini negri, îmbrăcând înălţimea echivalentă a aproximativ 5 punţi, crează un spaţiu relaxant. Conceptul aparţine firmei Atkins Global of Surrex din Marea Britanie, iar peisagistica specialiştilor de la The Waterfield Design Group din Winchester, respectiv Wilson Butler Associates din Boston. Aceştia au creat şi sistemele de drenaj, evaculare a apei de ploaie, de irigare şi control al micro-climatului din Central Park.\r\n\r\nTot în zona de agrement şi întreţinere aveţi ocazia de a face plajă ca la Miami Beach. În jurul unuia dintre bazine se află amenajată o plajă cu nisip natural. Dar aveţi la dispoziţie şi un complex de sănătate. Însoţitoarea noastră este chiar directorul Vitality Spa at Sea Spa. Irlandeza Aishling McCarthy ne spune că “centrul include 29 de camere şi suite de tratament, individuale şi pentru cupluri, pentru terapii antiîmbătrânire, şi ultimele generaţii de echipamente de întreţinere. Toate alcătuiesc cea mai mare colecţie de Spa de pe mare. Alături se află un Fitness Center ce oferă posibilitatea practicării 158 de programe de exerciţii. La final vă puteţi purifica bând una dintre licorile naturale la Vitality Cafe.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nBritto – un cavaler al culorilor\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nSă facem şi o cură de cultură. La bordul vasului se află o colecţie formată din peste 7.000 de lucrări originale. Vedeta este Romero Britto. Un tip încântător. Este considerat a fi unul dintre cei mai valoroşi artişti pop contemporani. El a revoluţionat un spaţiu rezultat din fuziunea curentelor cubiste, suprarealiste, impresioniste. Are rădăcini adânc înfipte în stilurile lui Picasso şi Chagall şi în cultura tradiţională braziliană. Parteneriatul cu compania americană de croaziere a început în 2003, când artistul a decorat etajul cu piscinele de pe vasul Mariner of the Seas. Pe Allure a creat piese exclusive, printre care grădina cu fluturi din Central Park. Britto şi-a extins parteneriatul prin deschiderea primului magazin-galerie de artă cu vânzare. Operele sale sunt întâlnite în peste 100 de galerii de pe 5 continente. Romero Britto ne-a declarat în exclusivitate: “Apreciez arta europeană care ţine de o veche tradiţie şi istorie. Iubesc foarte mult America, unde am avut şansa să-mi descopăr talentul. Este un spaţiu tânăr şi tocmai de aceea inovaţia în artă este mult mai bine primită aici. Crezul meu artistic se rezumă la următoarele cuvinte: arta trebuie să fie accesibilă şi plăcută oamenilor de toate vârstele”.\r\n\r\nArtă? Să nu rataţi nici spectacolele. Blue Planet, un regal de acrobaţie şi jocuri de lumini; Ice Show, pe arii de operă şi operetă, unde apare chiar şi spiritul lui Dracula, al naibi prinţul ăsta român; How To Train Your Dragon, care îi va fascina pe copii; sau “Chicago”, care se joacă în versiunea originală.

Încercăm să găsim un loc la tiroliană, dar n-avem noroc să alunecăm şi noi pe cablul de oţel de-a lungul a mai bine de o sută de metri, prin faţa balcoanelor, unde se află turiştii curioşi să vadă... zburătorii. Totul e safe, cu instructori foarte severi. Un loc tare de tot sunt cele două bazine cu jeturi care imită valurile mării, pe care aluneci cu placa. Cum viteza apei este mult mai mare decât cea întâlnită în mediul natural, mulţi dintre amatori de surfing sunt aruncaţi şi răsturnaţi înapoi la punctul de pornire. Instructorii îi încurajează să mai încerce până reuşesc. Dar poţi trăi şi o aventură... montană. Între etajele 15 şi 16 se află doi pereţi abrupţi pregătiţi pentru căţărători. Climbing-ul este la putere. Aşa că poţi să-ţi savurezi liniştit hamburger-ul ori hotdog-ul, la restaurantul Johnny Rockets, sau meniul de la Rita’s Catina - iute, condimentat, mexican -, şi să-i urmăreşti pe temerari, cum abordează la câţiva zeci de metri deasupra capului tău, suprafeţele dificile.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nÎmbrăţişări de la Fiona şi Shrek\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nNe aflăm pe Boardwalk. O punte în aer liber unde eşti întâmpinat de o expoziţie de sculptură, înconjurată de o colonie de pescăruşi de metal, o impresionantă creaţie artistică. Spaţiul reproduce atmosfera unui parc de distracţii, iar americanii apreciază acest loc. Aici există amfiteatrul de la Aqua Theater, ce deţine cel mai mare bazin acvatic existent pe vasele de croazieră. Seara au loc spectacole de lumini iar în timpul zilei demonstraţii acvatice ale animatorilor profesionişti. A meritat să facem câteva ture cu caruselul care ne-a amintit de farmecul copilăriei. Şi pentru că ne aflăm şi pe o planetă a copiilor trebuie să spunem că parada cu personajele din filme şi desene animate în vogă, a fost fascinantă. Copiii s-au întâlnit pe Royal Promenade celebrii Shrek, Fiona, care de altfel a devenit mascota lui Allure, Alex, Pinguinul şi Mort din “Madagascar”, Po din “Kung Fu Panda, Hiccup din “How to Train Your Dragon”, prinţi şi prinţese, motanul încălţat etc.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCe spune Molly Brandt ?\r\n\r\nDar şi aventura gastronomică e memorabilă. Pe vas există 26 de restaurante, cazinou, cinematografe, cafenele etc. Poţi intra la Sorrento, care aminteşte de pizza şi soarele Toscanei, la Central Park 150, unde poţi comanda meniul pe... Ipod. Chiar dacă nu cunoşti limba sau o anumită reţetă, ai posibilitatea să vizualizezi electronic ceea ce ai dori să mănânci. Giovanni, este un alt loc al pierzaniei gastronomice. Aici concurează o parte dintre cei mai cunoscuţi bucătari de pe Royal Caribbean Internaţional. Lider este Molly Brandt, absolventă a Culinary Institute of America şi câştigătoare a premiului “Allure of the Seas Culinari Challenge”. Amabilă, în timpul lansării Albumului cu cele mai celebre reţete ale echipei, Molly ne-a acordat un autograf pe un exemplar proaspăt tipărit. Despre experienţe gastronomice ne-a vorbit şi Cătălin Buta, Maître’D, unul dintre cei mai importanţi şefi de pe vas. Românul are în subordine mai bine de 200 de bucătari şi lucrători. A ajuns în această poziţie prin tenacitate şi dorinţa de a cunoaşte cât mai mult. De altfel cei peste 30 de români (plecaţi din Galaţi, Brăila, Braşov, Bucureşti, Arad, Ploieşti etc) care lucrează pe vas sunt bine văzuţi. Au ţinută, atitudine. Ce satisfacţii poţi să trăieşti pe un asemenea vas? Financiare şi profesionale. Apoi, nu dai nas în nas în fiecare zi cu Al Pacino, de exemplu, care tocmai terminase de filmat câteva scene. Cum să nu te simţi cineva, când numai la Restaurantul Adagio, dispus pe trei nivele, pot servi masa instantaneu 3.000 de persoane. Mai precis 3065. Poate e interesant să mai aflaţi că zilnic pe vas se folosesc 50.000 de litri de apă, doar pentru gheaţa din băuturi.\r\n\r\nExperienţe gastronomice de 5 stele puteţi să trăiţi şi la Samba Grill Brazilian Steakhouse. O cafea bună se întâlneşte la Starbucks, marcă prezentă în premieră pe un vas al Royal Caribbean.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nO plimbare prin... Central Park\r\n\r\nPoate doriţi să renunţaţi în vacanţă la tabieturile electronice. Aveţi alternative extraordinare. Vă puteţi plimba prin... Central Park. O zonă verde pusă la punct de specialişti britanici, pe aproape o jumătate din suprafaţa punţii 8, de dimensiunea unui teren de fotbal. Central Park, denumit \"plămânul verde\" al oraşului plutitor, găzduieşte 12.175 de plante, 56 de bambuşi, o mare parte dintre aceştia cu o înălţime de circa 8 metri şi zeci de plante căţărătoare care decorează un perete înalt de 15 metri. Grădini luxuriante cu plante subtropicale din întreaga lume. Flori de iris, cale, ficuşi regali, măslini negri, îmbrăcând înălţimea echivalentă a aproximativ 5 punţi, crează un spaţiu relaxant. Conceptul aparţine firmei Atkins Global of Surrex din Marea Britanie, iar peisagistica specialiştilor de la The Waterfield Design Group din Winchester, respectiv Wilson Butler Associates din Boston. Aceştia au creat şi sistemele de drenaj, evaculare a apei de ploaie, de irigare şi control al micro-climatului din Central Park.\r\n\r\nTot în zona de agrement şi întreţinere aveţi ocazia de a face plajă ca la Miami Beach. În jurul unuia dintre bazine se află amenajată o plajă cu nisip natural. Dar aveţi la dispoziţie şi un complex de sănătate. Însoţitoarea noastră este chiar directorul Vitality Spa at Sea Spa. Irlandeza Aishling McCarthy ne spune că “centrul include 29 de camere şi suite de tratament, individuale şi pentru cupluri, pentru terapii antiîmbătrânire, şi ultimele generaţii de echipamente de întreţinere. Toate alcătuiesc cea mai mare colecţie de Spa de pe mare. Alături se află un Fitness Center ce oferă posibilitatea practicării 158 de programe de exerciţii. La final vă puteţi purifica bând una dintre licorile naturale la Vitality Cafe.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nBritto – un cavaler al culorilor\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nSă facem şi o cură de cultură. La bordul vasului se află o colecţie formată din peste 7.000 de lucrări originale. Vedeta este Romero Britto. Un tip încântător. Este considerat a fi unul dintre cei mai valoroşi artişti pop contemporani. El a revoluţionat un spaţiu rezultat din fuziunea curentelor cubiste, suprarealiste, impresioniste. Are rădăcini adânc înfipte în stilurile lui Picasso şi Chagall şi în cultura tradiţională braziliană. Parteneriatul cu compania americană de croaziere a început în 2003, când artistul a decorat etajul cu piscinele de pe vasul Mariner of the Seas. Pe Allure a creat piese exclusive, printre care grădina cu fluturi din Central Park. Britto şi-a extins parteneriatul prin deschiderea primului magazin-galerie de artă cu vânzare. Operele sale sunt întâlnite în peste 100 de galerii de pe 5 continente. Romero Britto ne-a declarat în exclusivitate: “Apreciez arta europeană care ţine de o veche tradiţie şi istorie. Iubesc foarte mult America, unde am avut şansa să-mi descopăr talentul. Este un spaţiu tânăr şi tocmai de aceea inovaţia în artă este mult mai bine primită aici. Crezul meu artistic se rezumă la următoarele cuvinte: arta trebuie să fie accesibilă şi plăcută oamenilor de toate vârstele”.\r\n\r\nArtă? Să nu rataţi nici spectacolele. Blue Planet, un regal de acrobaţie şi jocuri de lumini; Ice Show, pe arii de operă şi operetă, unde apare chiar şi spiritul lui Dracula, al naibi prinţul ăsta român; How To Train Your Dragon, care îi va fascina pe copii; sau “Chicago”, care se joacă în versiunea originală. Călătorie plăcută.\r\n\r\nNr.82, Ianuarie 2011)\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nMulţumiri pentru sprijinul acordat ROYAL CARIBBEAN INTERNATIONAL şi WORLD TRAVEL\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','ALLURE OF THE SEAS – Un vas revoluţionar !','','inherit','open','open','','167-revision-10','','','2011-03-15 18:24:09','2011-03-15 16:24:09','',167,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/167-revision-10/',0,'revision','',0),(187,1,'2011-03-15 18:26:13','2011-03-15 16:26:13','![\"Budapesta\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/P1010138-300x225.jpg\" "\\"Budapesta\\"")
Ce poţi face dimineaţa la ora 7 ? Nimic mai simplu. Te urci în cursa Bucureşti-Budapesta şi într-o oră ajungi la destinaţie. Un zbor scurt, plăcut cu Malev, linie aeriană desemnată de către specialiştii internaţionali drept Best Airlines 2010, pentru Europa de Est. În aceeaşi măsură transportatorul este şi partenerul oficial al campaniei de promovare Budapest Winter Invitation (BWI).\r\n\r\nOdată ajuns la unul dintre hotelurile partenere ale BWI, în cazul nostru hotelul Hilton amplasat în vechea cetate a oraşului, scăpat de bagaje, te poţi dedica programului oferit de către gazde: Oficiul Naţional de Turism al Ungariei (HNTO). Un prilej unic de a cunoaşte o altfel de Budapestă, o faţă mult mult mai profundă a oraşului, plină de substanţă culturală. 2011 este anul Liszt în Ungaria şi nici un efort nu este precupeţit pentru a-l transforma într-o nouă victorie… turistică. Aşa că la… drum. Cicuitele pietonale “Pe urmele lui Liszt” sunt puse în operă cu mare succes de către “Unique Budapest” şi de către ghizi tineri dedicaţi subiectului. Ele cuprind repere ca Academia de muzică Franz Liszt, Muzeul memorial Franz Liszt, Strada Vaci, Teatrul din Pesta etc. Iar dacă se întâmplă să bată un vânt ca-n pustă şi-ţi taie respiraţia nu-ţi rămâne decât să te îndrepţi spre „Essencia Cooking School” şi să te delectezi cu preparatele gastronomice preferate de Franz Liszt şi pregătite de Andreea, un tânăr Chef, deja o personalitate a gastronomiei ungare. Într-o atmosferă modernă şi relaxată, înconjuraţi de o colecţie impresionantă de cărţi de bucate, care mai de care mai importante, gazdele ne oferă din „program”: ouă umplute cu icre roşii şi negre, o supă limpede de pui, un desert delicios, celebrul „lapte de pasăre”, evident totul stropit cu un vin de Tokay, de 5 putoni.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCu NOBU şi Roger Moore la 38 de grade![\"Budapesta](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/P1010109-300x225.jpg\" "\\"Budapesta")
\r\n\r\nDupă un asemenea festin vizitarea Clădirii Parlamentului pare mai lesnicioasă căci e urmată de un brunch – conferinţă de presă - la NOBU, cel mai nou restaurant al celebrului lanţ japonez. Situat lângă hotelul Kempinski Corvinus restaurantul cu 80 de locuri, singurul cu acest brand din Europa Centrală, a devenit un punct de atracţie turistică şi se comportă ca atare.\r\n\r\nIar dacă nu petreci măcar câteva ore la cel mai mare complex termal din Europa, situat în Pesta, nu poţi să spune că ai pătruns în esenţa oraşului. Toate limbile continentului se aud în jurul tău, apa fierbinte la 38 de grade Celsius, în plină iarnă, piscinele exterioare, masaje profesioniste cu tot felul de ingrediente, o cafea, un ceai cald. Un duş scoţian şi zăpada căzând din cer totul îţi creează sentimentul unei lumi fantastice şi o stare de bine absolut meritată. Complexul Szechenyi Bath & Spa situat în vecinătatea Muzeului de artă, este recunoscut, pe bună dreptate, drept una dintre comorile oraşului. Şi pentru că după o baie bună o masă gustoasă este şi mai bună, restaurantul Kogart s-a dovedit a fi o variantă câştigătoare. Atmosfera specială este creată de pereţii decoraţi cu opere de artă contemporană foarte valoroase, provenind din întreaga Europă. Evident, nu lipsesc nici lucrări ale tinerilor artişti români. Vizitele şi fotografiile celebrului actor Roger Moore, un obişnuit al casei, amplifică puterea de seducţie a localului.\r\n\r\nGodollo – un palat funcţional\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_191\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Budapesta Godollo\"]![\"Budapesta](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Castel-Godöllö-300x240.jpg\" "\\"Budapesta\\"")
[/caption]\r\n\r\nLa ora la care muzeele îşi închid porţile prinde contur viaţa de noapte a oraşului. Şi pentru că budapestanii nu uită şi nici nu strică, paleta de opţiuni este extrem de generoasă: restaurante clasice, crame sau de ce nu aşanumitele „ruin pub”-uri al căror succes în rândul turiştilor şi localnicilor a fost fulgerător. Baruri de noapte în blocuri dărăpănate destinate demolării precum Szimpla, Mumus, Kert, Anonimus, sau Instant au creat o asemenea afluenţă turistică că au salvat de la dispariţie zona respectivă.\r\n\r\nExperienţa budapestană nu poate fi completă fără un mic dejun atipic la faimosul bistro Deryne, urmat de o vizită la WAMP, târgul tinerilor creatori, aflat în plină dezvoltare. Gazdele nu uită că au preşedenţia UE pentru şase luni şi ne pregătesc o vizită la Godollo, castelul preferat al reginei Eilsabeta, celebra Sissy. Acum e Centru muzeal-cultural, una dintre reşedinţele oficiale ale preşedenţiei UE şi, de asemenea, gazdă a Festivalului Liszt 2011.\r\n\r\n3.000 de evenimente muzicale într-un an\r\n\r\nImpactul prilejuit de audierea unui concert Chopin oferit de către marele pianist maghiar Gergely Boganyi este major. Artistul de 36 de ani, interpretează fără partitură, piese selectate din repertoriul său de către public, cu numai zece minute înainte de a începe concertul, transportându-ne în sferele înalte ale unei geniale performanţe artistice: Om-pian-operă. Şi dacă veţi asista pentru prima dată la un concert în Ungaria veţi fi copleşit de atmosfera creată de publicul local. Felul în care îşi aplaudă artiştii este unic şi nu poate fi redat în cuvinte. Întâlnirea cu artistul Gergely Boganyi, care este şi directorul artistic al Festivalului Liszt 2011, constituie un nou prilej de elevaţie culturală, conferinţa de presă transformându-se într-o lecţie de ţinută artistică şi morală a acestui mare, tânăr pianist, aflat în permanentă ardere, deplin conştient de harul său dar şi de rolul său în lumea artei. Veţi iubi Ungaria după ce veţi asista la un asemenea concert. Iar dacă nu sunteţi convinşi vă puteţi rezerva o seară pentru Opera din Budapesta. Construită cu orgoliul de a concura ca replică Opera din Viena, deşi mai puţin cunoscută, mă refer la arhitectură, ea pare mai strălucitoare. Am avut şansa de a trăi o seară specială – Mozart, oferită de către Orchestra Filarmonică din Budapesta, sub bagheta magică a dirijorului Adam Fisher. Magici au fost şi corul, şi solistele şi Recviemul de Mozart. Alături de acestea şi paharul de Tokay, savurat la pauză, şi aplauzele de la finalul concertului.\r\n\r\nNu fugiţi cu ştrudelul!\r\n\r\nSunt lucruri care trebuie „gustate”, la faţa locului. Şi pentru că celebrul poet Pablo Neruda obişnuia să frecventeze localul ne-am încheiat şi noi periplul la renumita cramă Mathias: savori şi culoare locală. Nu poţi pleca din Budapesta fără să te opreşti pentru o cafea cu poveştile de rigoare la New York Cafe. Este atât de cunoscută şi renumită încât o conferinţă de presă despre oferta turistică a Budapestei în domeniul muzucal devine absolut memorabilă. Să nu uităm că oraşul găzduieşte anul circa 3.000 de evenimente muzicale. E ceva, nu ?\r\n\r\nDar poate nu doriţi ceva atât de sofisticat ci o experienţă mai „poporeană”! Atunci asiguraţi-vă o rezervare la „Reteshaz”, o cafenea restaurant de o factură aparte. Aici poţi participa direct la prepararea unei cunoscute plăcinte... naţionale – reteşul, replică a ştrudelului austriac. Faptul că vezi pe viu cum un boţ de aluat se transformă într-o foaie de aproximativ 1,60 metri pătraţi, subţire şi transparentă ca un celofan iar apoi devine o plăcintă cu mere, brânză etc, adică Reteş, te face să-ţi savurezi porţia cu evlavie şi cu mult respect şi admiraţie pentru cel ce ţi-a pus-o în farfurie.\r\n\r\nDă o raită cu autobuzul pe Dunăre\r\n\r\nA, şi, mai este ceva! Dacă vedeţi cumva un autobuz plutind pe apele Dunării nu vă speriaţi şi nu alertaţi poliţia. Vă aflaţi în faţa celui mai nou produs turistic: plimbări pe Dunăre cu autobuzul plutitor. Turiştii au bucuria de a „sări” cu acesta în apă fără frică şi fără niciun risc. La început a şocat, acum este o atracţie preferată de turişti, de tineri, dar mai ales de copii. O experienţă similară am trăit în urmă cu câţiva ani la New York. Acum Budapesta este primul oraş din zona continentală a Europei care a adoptat River Ride, produs turistic, fireşte, de sorginte americană. Iar dacă Budapesta vi se pare prea aglomerată rezervaţi-vă o zi pentru a vizita Muzeul etnografic în aer liber de la Skanzen, creat prin anii ’80 ce deţine în patrimoniu case ţărăneşti din secolele XVIII- XX, este organizat cu panotaje moderne, oferă programe educaţionale variate, toate vorbind despre respectul acordat trecutului istoric.\r\n\r\nNu uita de „Lingura de lemn”\r\n\r\nDacă vă mai rămâne timp nu uitaţi să va opriţi apoi în orăşelul turistic Szentendre, o oază de calm din apropierea Budapestei, cu un aer surprinzător, mediteraneean, datorat mixtului cultural. Şi, reţineţi, nu puteţi părăsi Budapesta fără a face o vizită în piaţa mare a oraşului Nagy Vassar (Great Market Hall), abundenţa de produse locale este suprinzătoare şi mai ales tentantă: a pleca fără celebrul pateu de gâscă unguresc este o lipsă de neiertat de către papilele gustative. Şi, că tot veni vorba, vă puteţi opri pentru un prânz gustos la reputatul birt „Lingura de lemn” (Fakanal), aflat la etaj în incinta pieţei. Veţi rememora mult timp gustul mâncărurilor gătite ca la orice mamă... unguroaică, acasă.\r\n\r\nPe tot parcursul acestui periplu muzicalo-gastronomic au fost alături de noi, gazde amabile, reprezentanţii HNTO, Mark Kincses, un excelent orator şi Emese Tomka, director de evenimente. Dorinţa de a reveni este puternică. Budapesta are ce oferi –non-stop – în orice anotimp. La întoarcere, în avion, îmi dă târcoale o întrebare (fără răspuns): oare ce preferinţe culinare avea Ciprian Porumbescu, contemporanul lui Franz Liszt?\r\n\r\n(Nr. 82, Ianuarie 201\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU','La BUDAPESTA în căutarea lui FRANZ LISZT','','publish','open','open','','la-budapesta-in-cautarea-lui-franz-liszt','','','2011-03-15 23:05:56','2011-03-15 21:05:56','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=187',0,'post','',0),(188,1,'2011-03-15 18:25:36','2011-03-15 16:25:36','','La BUDAPESTA în căutarea lui FRANZ LISZT','','inherit','open','open','','187-revision','','','2011-03-15 18:25:36','2011-03-15 16:25:36','',187,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/187-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(189,1,'2011-03-15 18:28:03','2011-03-15 16:28:03','Budapesta placinta','Budapesta placinta','','inherit','open','open','','p1010109','','','2011-03-15 18:28:03','2011-03-15 16:28:03','',187,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/P1010109.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(190,1,'2011-03-15 18:28:07','2011-03-15 16:28:07','Budapesta','Budapesta','','inherit','open','open','','p1010138','','','2011-03-15 18:28:07','2011-03-15 16:28:07','',187,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/P1010138.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(191,1,'2011-03-15 18:28:38','2011-03-15 16:28:38','Budapesta','Budapesta','Budapesta Godollo','inherit','open','open','','ty%c2%b9','','','2011-03-15 18:28:38','2011-03-15 16:28:38','',187,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Castel-Godöllö.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(192,1,'2011-03-15 23:05:42','2011-03-15 21:05:42','Ce poţi face dimineaţa la ora 7 ?

Un zbor scurt, plăcut cu Malev, linie aeriană desemnată de către specialiştii internaţionali drept Best Airlines 2010, pentru Europa de Est. În aceeaşi măsură transportatorul este şi partenerul oficial al campaniei de promovare Budapest Winter Invitation (BWI).\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nOdată ajuns la unul dintre hotelurile partenere ale BWI, în cazul nostru hotelul Hilton amplasat în vechea cetate a oraşului, scăpat de bagaje, te poţi dedica programului oferit de către gazde: Oficiul Naţional de Turism al Ungariei (HNTO). Un prilej unic de a cunoaşte o altfel de Budapestă, o faţă mult mult mai profundă a oraşului, plină de substanţă culturală. 2011 este anul Liszt în Ungaria şi nici un efort nu este precupeţit pentru a-l transforma într-o nouă victorie… turistică. Aşa că la… drum. Cicuitele pietonale “Pe urmele lui Liszt” sunt puse în operă cu mare succes de către “Unique Budapest” şi de către ghizi tineri dedicaţi subiectului. Ele cuprind repere ca Academia de muzică Franz Liszt, Muzeul memorial Franz Liszt, Strada Vaci, Teatrul din Pesta etc. Iar dacă se întâmplă să bată un vânt ca-n pustă şi-ţi taie respiraţia nu-ţi rămâne decât să te îndrepţi spre „Essencia Cooking School” şi să te delectezi cu preparatele gastronomice preferate de Franz Liszt şi pregătite de Andreea, un tânăr Chef, deja o personalitate a gastronomiei ungare. Într-o atmosferă modernă şi relaxată, înconjuraţi de o colecţie impresionantă de cărţi de bucate, care mai de care mai importante, gazdele ne oferă din „program”: ouă umplute cu icre roşii şi negre, o supă limpede de pui, un desert delicios, celebrul „lapte de pasăre”, evident totul stropit cu un vin de Tokay, de 5 putoni.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCu NOBU şi Roger Moore la 38 de grade\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nDupă un asemenea festin vizitarea Clădirii Parlamentului pare mai lesnicioasă căci e urmată de un brunch – conferinţă de presă - la NOBU, cel mai nou restaurant al celebrului lanţ japonez.

Toate limbile continentului se aud în jurul tău, apa fierbinte la 38 de grade Celsius, în plină iarnă, piscinele exterioare, masaje profesioniste cu tot felul de ingrediente, o cafea, un ceai cald. Un duş scoţian şi zăpada căzând din cer totul îţi creează sentimentul unei lumi fantastice şi o stare de bine absolut meritată. Complexul Szechenyi Bath & Spa situat în vecinătatea Muzeului de artă, este recunoscut, pe bună dreptate, drept una dintre comorile oraşului. Şi pentru că după o baie bună o masă gustoasă este şi mai bună, restaurantul Kogart s-a dovedit a fi o variantă câştigătoare. Atmosfera specială este creată de pereţii decoraţi cu opere de artă contemporană foarte valoroase, provenind din întreaga Europă. Evident, nu lipsesc nici lucrări ale tinerilor artişti români.

Baruri de noapte în blocuri dărăpănate destinate demolării precum Szimpla, Mumus, Kert, Anonimus, sau Instant au creat o asemenea afluenţă turistică că au salvat de la dispariţie zona respectivă.\r\n\r\nExperienţa budapestană nu poate fi completă fără un mic dejun atipic la faimosul bistro Deryne, urmat de o vizită la WAMP, târgul tinerilor creatori, aflat în plină dezvoltare.

De Poiana Lungă am aflat din poezia întitulată astfel, scrisă de împărăteasa Elisabeta, legendara Sisi.\r\n\r\nStând de vorbă cu profesorul pensionar, Iancu Feneşan - păstrător al inelului împărătesei, dăruit străbunicului lui, Mihail Feneşan, inel pe care revista Traveller Magazin l-a prezentat în premieră -, am aflat că Poiana Lungă este un cătun al comunei Cornereva, din Munţii Cernei, la vreo 15 – 20 de kilometri de Bogâltin. Şi aşa am ajuns, după mai bine de trei ore de urcat, călăuzit de Ana Maria şi Ilie, doi fii ai muntelui, la poalele Muntelui Arjana, unde se află Poiana Lungă.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_32\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"224\" caption=\"Imparateasa Sisi\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nAm tras la familia Novăcescu, în creierul munţilor, în zona numită Bedina. Localitatea se numeşte Poiana Lungă. Vârful Arjana (1512 m), se înalţă semeţ în stânga noastră, iar undeva mai jos, izvorăşte zglobiu pârâul Bedina ce se varsă în Cerna. Nicolae Novăcescu, gazda noastră, bun gospodar, ca orice om de munte, se pricepe la multe: să facă “toble” (scânduri) cu drujba, scaune din bardă, să zidească, să pună gresie şi faianţă, să producă energie electrică cu un generator acţionat de apa muntelui, să tragă apă în casă, într-un cuvânt să convieţuiască armonios cu natura. Asediaţi de mere roşii şi pere aurii, Novăcescu îmi prezintă familia: soţia sa, Maria, Daniel, un băieţel voinic de 4 ani, Ilie, băiatul cel mare, de 14 ani şi Ana–Maria, fata de 18 ani, elevă la Colegiul Hercules din Băile Herculane.\r\n\r\nIntru în vorbă cu Nicolae Novăcescu. Încerc să-i înţeleg resorturile intime prin care reuşeşte, din munca lui, să-şi întreţină o familie numeroasă şi să-şi facă o casă “care se învârte după soare”, după gusturile şi ideile pe care Ana–Maria ştie să le impună tuturor membrilor familiei. Mă uit la peisajul generos luminat de razele calde ale unei toamne târzii, adăpostit ca într-o căldare de către Vârful Arjana şi de Geanţurile Bedinei. În zare, dincolo de Valea Cernei, se zăresc pereţii de calcar ai Munţilor Mehedinţi. Mă gândesc ce aş mai putea să vorbesc cu acest om, care în două vorbe scurte m-a făcut să înţeleg filozofia lui de viaţă. Mi-a vorbit de vecinul cel mai apropiat, moşu Lazăr Rădoi, de 70 de ani, care stă cu baba lui la circa o jumate de oră de mers de la casa sa. Mi-a povestit cum, atunci când a montat generatorul de curent pe pârâul Bedina, i-a tras şi vecinului său un cablu ca să aibă curent şi lumină la bătrâneţe. Un fapt normal între doi vecini. Aici sus, în singurătatea munţilor, gesturile şi omenia au altă greutate.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_33\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Imparateasa Sisi\"][/caption]\r\n\r\n- Aţi avut oaspeţi aici, în creierul munţilor? Îi cunoşteai sau au venit întâmplător?\r\n- Da, or venit din Oradea, Timişoara, Oţelu Roşu, Ploieşti, chiar Germania. Dar au venit şi excursionişti, cu motociclete, cu ATV-uri, pe drumul de la Bogâltin. Am avut acum o vreme, două persoane din Germania, unul cu o mototcicletă şi unul cu ATV–ul. Îmi aduc aminte, ploia, erau uzi bine. Le-am zis, mai mult prin semne: “Haidaţi, să dormiţi la mine!”. Le-am dat să mănânce. M-au filmat, aveau un aparat. Dimineaţa ar fi vrut să-mi dea un ban că au mâncat, au dormit, erau bucuroşi că au găsit un adăpost. Da eu nu am vrut să iau nimic, nu prea luăm noi.\r\n\r\n- Mai ştii vre-un traseu, de aici la Băile Herculane?- Păi ştiu că bunicul nevesti-mi cobora în fiecare an, primăvara de Paşti, cu mieii în Platoul Coronini. Aveam o rudă acolo unde veneau clienţii şi luau miei de acolo. Din Platoul Coronini se urca în culmea muntelui până la Iarba moale şi de acolo, imediat, se cobora în Poiana Lungă. Imediat după coasta aceea, după ce se urcă pe Cracu Împărătesei se ajunge la Poiana Lungă, cam în zece minute.\r\n\r\nCracu Împărătesei! Simt cum oboseala celor trei ore de urcuş se topeşte. Bucuria certitudinii îmi luminează dintr-o dată, faţa. Sentimentul pe care l-am trăit, la auzul acestor cuvinte a fost asemănător cu cel trăit la descoperirea versurilor scrise de împărăteasa Elisabeta despre Băile Herculane, la Viena. În sfârşit, aveam încă o dovadă a excursiilor împărătesei prin aceste locuri. Trecere care avea să fie observată de locuitorii zonei ce au dat numele de “Cracu Împărătesei” locului în care îi plăcea împărătesei să se plimbe şi care, probabil, i-a inspirat scrierea poeziei “Poiana Lungă”. A doua zi, m-am trezit de dimineaţă, cu gândul la “Poiana Lungă” şi la “Cracu Împărătesei”. Am coborât într-o vale, după care am început să urcăm printr-o pădure de conifere, însoţiţi de Nicolae, călăuza noastră de ocazie. Aici ne-am readus aminte de versurile împărătesei care descriu natura ce se trezeşte la viaţă:\r\n\r\nStejarii foşnesc misterios,\r\nLa fel ca fagii ei şoptesc.\r\nPăsările pădurii se trezesc,\r\nCiripesc vesele şi râd.\r\nDin pădure răsună vuietul\r\nApei, în care trăiesc nimfele.\r\n\r\nDupă urcuşul prin pădure, în faţa noastră se deschide Poiana Lungă, un platou înconjurat de păduri. În faţa ochilor luminat de soarele dimineţii, se ridică Vârful Arjana, pe care Sisi îl vede ca un templu:\r\n\r\nVulturii înconjoară înălţimile,\r\nCa să descopere soarele.\r\nAcolo sus, în fortăreaţa de piatră, pluteşte,\r\nAsemenea unui cuib de păsări răpitoare,\r\nÎnconjurat de pini şi brazi,\r\nUn templu, luminat de licăririle dimineţii.\r\n\r\nSus, în poiană o altă surpriză. Ajungând la conacul lui Nicolae, unde are o livadă de meri şi peri, privirile ne sunt atrase de rodul bogat al pomilor în jurul cărora erau covoare de un roşu sau auriu incredibil de adevărat şi natural. Nu puteam călca în jurul pomilor de atâta rod. Gândul mă duce din nou la împărăteasă care, inspirată de aceste imagini de vis, scria aceste versuri în jurnalul ei intim:\r\n\r\nAstfel trec minute, secunde,\r\nOrele, chiar, se grăbesc.\r\nSoarele îşi lasă razele strălucitoare\r\nSă cadă pe acoperişul templului.\r\nFagii îţi fac semne ademenitoare,\r\nSă cauţi la ei umbra răcoritoare.\r\nCât de puternici totuşi privesc,\r\nLa cerul albastru, ceresc.\r\nOcrotită de frunzişul îmbelşugat,\r\nNoaptea este verde-ntunecată doar aici.\r\nPrin aceste spaţii străvezii,\r\nPăzită de umbra copacilor,\r\nSe plimbă Titania-ndelung,\r\n\r\nÎnsoţită de cântecul păsărilor. Departe de eticheta curţii imperiale, Elisabeta trăieşte din plin armonia naturii. Întâlnirea cu un cioban cu oile, care-i dăruieşte lapte proaspăt muls, o trezeşte din starea de reverie:\r\nDar la venirea serii\r\nSe-apropie păstorul cu oile şi mieii.\r\nEi poposesc în Poiana Lungă;\r\nO aşteaptă aici, la adăpat, pe Titania.\r\nEa pune evantaiul în dreapta,\r\nPăstorul îi umple paharul\r\nPlin de lichid înspumat, parfumat\r\nDe tăria ierburilor, a rădăcinilor.\r\nEl mai goleşte-odată ugerul oilor,\r\nCât de bine e după căldura\r\nZilei, să te înviorezi cu băutura;\r\nEa mulţumeşte zâmbind băiatului.\r\nDrept mulţumire-i dă o monedă de aur,\r\nEl însă zice: „Mai zăboveşte dar\r\nPrin aste păduri şi munţi,\r\n\r\nDomnul să te conducă şi să te-ntărească.Umbrele serii o determină pe împărăteasă să părăsescă, cu regret acest loc de vis:Coboară iar în valea cea întunecată\r\nŞi Luna o-nsoţeşte iar;\r\nLumina ei de-argint, drept călăuză,\r\n\r\nO însoţeşte pe potecă.Părăsim Poiana Lungă. Trecem pe lângă o turmă de oi. Ne reîntoarcem acasă, la familia Nicolae Novăcescu. Ne pregătim bagajul pentru a ne reîntoarce la Herculane. Promitem gazdelor că vom reveni. Plecăm din aceste locuri cu oameni minunaţi. În urma noastră parcă auzim foşnind pe covorul din frunze galbele şi roşii, paşii împărătesei Elisabeta. Auzim oare, poezia istoriei?\r\n\r\nDORIN BĂLTEANU','Pe urmele imparatesei Sisi','','inherit','open','open','','100-revision-6','','','2011-03-15 16:47:53','2011-03-15 14:47:53','',100,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/100-revision-6/',0,'revision','',0),(216,1,'2011-03-15 16:41:51','2011-03-15 14:41:51','OLIMPIC INTERNATIONAL - 20 DE ANI!\r\n\r\nGEORGE SORIN NICOLESCU: “20 de ani sunt o felie de istorie!”\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_98\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"242\" caption=\"Olimpic International\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nOlimpic International Turism, marchează două decenii de activitate. În 1990 firma a început cu 5 oameni şi cu programe de incoming. Din 2000 agenţia s-a poziţionat puternic pe turismul de evenimente. La Olimpic lucrează azi 35 de specialişti. Aceştia au oferit de-a lungul celor 20 de ani, servicii şi asistenţă pentru circa 2.500.000 de clienţi. Adică, aproximativ echivalentul populaţiei Bucureştiului.\r\n\r\n- Sorin Nicolescu, aţi construit firma ca o afacere de familie, împreună cu soţia Mihaela Nicolescu, director de vânzări. Sunteţi preşedintele firmei. Doresc să aflu ce atuuri vă individualizează pe piaţă?\r\n\r\n- Nu un anumit produs, ci mobilitatea. Apoi diversificarea serviciilor. Numai aşa poţi face faţă creşterii şi descreşterii unui anumit domeniu. Au fost anumite perioade în care ticketingul a mers foarte bine, apoi incomingul, outgoingul ori turismul de evenimente pe care eu îl consider cel mai complex. Logic, ar urma întărirea activităţilor de incoming. Eu cred că legăturile între oameni consolidează relaţiile de afaceri şi zona corporate travel. E o investiţie, care acum cu nebunia internetului şi a mailului, mulţi au pierdut-o din vedere. Am inovat tot timpul şi am căutat nişe noi de piaţă. E unul dintre secretele noastre.\r\n\r\n- Cât de atractivă este România ca piaţă de evenimente?\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_97\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Olimpic International\"][/caption]\r\n\r\n- Amintesc doar câteva dintre mega-manifestările pe care le-a organizat ori le-am consolidat: Congresul Uniunii Mondiale a Poştelor (2004), cel mai marcant eveniment din România ultimilor 20 de ani, ce a reunit la Bucureşti peste 2000 de participanţi; Conferinţele regionale Dunărene (2002-2005), fiecare cu participări de circa 200 de experţi; Conferinţele naţionale şi internaţionale de drumuri, poduri şi autostrăzi (2006-2008), ce au atras între 350-500 de persoane pe ediţie; Conferinţele pe teme medicale, cele cu profil de IT şi comunicaţii; Forumul oamenilor de afaceri francofoni (2006) etc.\r\n\r\n- Nu mi-am propus să vorbim despre cifre, ci despre oameni. Cât de performantă este echipa pe care o conduceţi?\r\n\r\n- Avem o echipă de succes. Asta nu o spunem noi ci rezultatele obţinute de-a lungul anilor. Am fost aproape întotdeauna în poziţii de top. Ca o idee Olimpic Internaţional s-a aflat din 1995 până în 2007 pe primele două locuri la secţiunea de travel, în Topul CCIR. Am fost premiaţi şi pe plan internaţional cu Premiul European de Excelenţă, cu Steaua Calităţii, dar şi de către aproape toate organizaţiile de specialitate (Ministerul Turismului, ANAT, RCB, AOAR, ANEIR) şi de firmele noastre partenere, agenţii, companii hoteliere şi aeriene. Cred că am primit peste o sută de distincţii şi trofee. Mă şi gândesc, până acum nu am avut răgazul, să le strângem pe toate într-un mic muzeu. Cred că ar fi util pentru cei noi, dar şi pentru cei “clasici” deja, să ne reamintim de unde am pornit şi unde am ajuns. Pentru că vorbim de echipă trebuie să amintesc de “cărăuşii” firmei: Ştefan Şandor Mihaela, Alina Gheorghiescu, Roxana Dincă, Anca Grigorescu, Mihaela Nicolescu, motorul nostru de vânzări, Anca Taşbac, Cornelia Duţoiu, care dau greutate departamentului financiar-contabil, Mihai Buciuleac şi Emil Enache, oamenii cu care am pus pe picioare segmentul de transporturi, Emilia Dulapciu, Viorica Ionescu, Liliana Bangală, Elena Filiuţă ori Cristina Cotea. Noile valuri îi aduce în prim plan pe Cristina Ilie, Oana Bera, Simona Mocanca, Mihaela Anghel, Mihaela Tudor, cărora li se alătură Vasile Uţa, Mihai Muller, Oprişor Dumitru, George Enache, Iuliana Petre, Diana Costea, Nedescu Lucian, Alexandru Safciu, Ciuică Marian etc.\r\n\r\n- Cum vedeţi viitorul pieţii de travel din România?\r\n\r\n-Trebuie să insistăm pe segmentul de conferinţe. Avem un potenţial clar, real, avem Palatul Parlamentului, avem capacităţi turistice moderne. Putem face faţă unor manifestări care să atragă până la 5.000 de participanţi. Avem şi agenţii care au capacitatea de a organiza congrese, simpozioane, reuniuni internaţionale. În ceea ce ne priveşte, am reuşit în acest an să organizăm 11 evenimente, de la prezentări de vinuri până la parade de modă, la EXPO 2010 de la Shanghai, unde am asigurat servicii pentru circa 1.100 de turişti. Fiţi convinşi că o putem face cel puţin cu acelaşi succes şi în România.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANINESCU','Olimpic International 20 de ani','','inherit','open','open','','95-revision-4','','','2011-03-15 16:41:51','2011-03-15 14:41:51','',95,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/95-revision-4/',0,'revision','',0),(217,1,'2011-03-15 16:42:50','2011-03-15 14:42:50',' \r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_39\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"224\" caption=\"Iordania Petra\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nPETRA – Roz, Roz, Roz\r\nŞtiu! Când vă gândiţi la viaţa în roz imediat începeţi să fredonaţi cunoscutul şlagăr al artistei Edith Piaf şi vă ia un dor de ducă spre Paris. Există însă şi un alt loc care s-a transformat într-un magnet turistic în ultimul deceniu. Petra. Este, la propriu, un monument fabulos, legat sută la sută de culoarea roz. Se află în mijlocul deşertului iar imaginea de promovare turistică a Iordaniei este concentrată pe clădirea Tezaurului, primul loc care focalizează atenţia turistului.\r\n\r\nCând ţi-ai fixat în gând să pleci spre Petra – cunoscut şi ca oraşul roz sau oraşul trandafiriu -, nu uita să-ţi iei aparatul de fotografiat şi să te înarmezi cu cel puţin doi litri de apă. Doar 260 de kilometri, la sud, despart cel mai faimos site arheologic al Iordaniei de capitala Amman şi numai 133 kilometri la nord, de oraşul-port Aqaba. Petra se află lângă oraşelul Wadi Musa. Circulaţia turistică a fost bine stimulată de către declararea acestui vestigiu valoare de patrimoniu mondial UNESCO. În plus, de anul trecut Petra, a devenit una dintre cele 7 Noi Minuni ale Lumii. Înainte de a pleca la drum mai ar trebui să şti că oraşul antic asigură o mare parte din veniturile turistice ale Iordaniei care strânge la buget anual circa 1 miliard de dolari din buzunarul călătorilor. E ceva, raportat la populaţia ţări ce se ridică la circa 6 milioane de locuitori.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_40\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Iordania Petra camile\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nSă nu vă credeţi la Viena!\r\nCe veţi găsi fascinant aici? Hai la drum! Moştenirea nabateenilor, un popor arab venit din sudul Iordaniei cu mai bine de circa 2.200 de ani în urmă se deschide generos în faţa ochilor turiştilor. E un loc de pelerinaj. Dar nu veţi aştepta prea mult la coadă. La intrare se află clădirea Centrului de Informare Turistică unde ţi se oferă gratuit un pliant tipărit în principalele limbi de circulaţie internaţională. Discret, ţi se atrage atenţia că dacă la sfârşitul vizitei nu mai ai nevoie de el îl poţi restitui în acelaşi loc. Chestiune de educaţie. Pentru că după tine vin alte zeci de mii de turişti care s-ar bucura să aibă un ghid de orientare. Zis şi făcut. Înainte de a intra în oraş comersanţii cu hainele lor colorate te îmbie cu tot felul de oferte. Dacă eşti tare la negocieri iată-te intrat în Petra îmbrăcat ca un localnic. Atenţie, de aici începe marele drum. Spun marele drum, pentru că el măsoară câţiva kilometri, dacă vrei să vezi cât mai multe. Eşti mai comod sau te deplasezi mai greu? Cu numai câţiva dolari, ai propria trăsură, sau o căruţă pe două roţi, cu umbrar. Ei, să nu vă credeţi la Viena! Sunteţi în deşert. Dar caii trag bine, şi în vreo 20 de minute ajungeţi în faţa clădirii Tezaurului. Dacă vă place să călăriţi vă aşteaptă, tot de închiriat, nişte cai pur sînge care în fuga lor îţi crează senzaţia unei răcoriri temporare. Poate doriţi cămile sau măgăruşi. Sunteţi servit.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_41\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"224\" caption=\"Iordania Petra vizita\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nPe urmele lui Burkhardt\r\nAjuns în inima Petrei rămâi impresionat. Cum probabil a rămas şi cercetătorul elveţian Johann Ludwig Burkhardt care a redescoperit oraşul în 1812. Nimeni nu a crezut că se poate întâmpla o asemenea minune, mai ales că aşezarea antică a nabateenilor era considerată doar o legendă piedută în... nisipurile istoriei. Burckhardt, bun cunscător al limbii arabe s-a deghizat în musulman şi a câştigat încrederea localnicilor. Ei l-au condus până la intrarea în defileu pe valea Bab as-Sique. De aici se deschide cartea de piatră în ale cărei pagini poţi urmări urmele vieţii săpate în stânci. Fascinaţia locului. Civilizaţii şi culturi suprapuse. Monumentele amintesc de stilurile greco-roman, egiptean ori mesopotamian. Până în inima vechiului oraş trebuie să străbaţi circa 1.200 de metri prin As Siq, un culoar săpat printre stânci înalte de peste 80 de metri. Când ridici ochii te ia ameţeala. Pe stânga şi pe dreapta observi sute de sculpturi în piatră maronie şi bej, ce amintesc de figurile unor zei, de lăcaşuri tombale, de pietre votive. Pe marginile Siq-ului se mai pot vedea încă, şanţurile canalului de colectare, folosit de nabateeni pentru a aduce apa până in inima Petrei. Ploile cădeau cam de două ori pe an dar nabateenii cunoşteau tehnica extragerii apei de la mari adâncimi. Asta le-a permis să poată construi şi locui în oraşul din mijlocul deşertului.\r\n\r\nTezaurul regilor sau al piraţilor ?\r\nPoţi afla şi mai multe dacă cumperi o broşură de la unul dintre copii care te aşteaptă pe stânci. La Al-Khazneh (Sala Tezaurului), te întâlneşti cu geniul arhitectural al nabateenilor care au tăiat în stânci o clădire impresionantă cu o faţadă de 43 de metri înalţime şi 30 de metri lăţime, cea mai elaborată, a oraşului antic. Monumentul îmbina elementele orientale cu cele de sorginte romană. Este locul cel mai fotografiat din Iordania. Stânca este la fel de spectaculoasă atât dimineaţa cât şi după amiaza, interval în care nuanţele de culoare ale acesteia se schimbă în permanenţă. Scopul ridicării monumentului rămâne un mister. Locul adăposteşte morminte regale. Dar denumirea a fost dată de legende conform cărora aici şi-ar fi ascuns piraţii comorile jefuite. Misterul trebuie întreţinut şi apărat. Ca urmare clădirea Tezaurului, este păzită zi şi noapte de soldaţi iordanieni, înarmaţi până în dinţi. Au o privire dură, ce parcă sugerează turiştilor să nu lase mizerie în urma lor. În realitate au funcţie turistică şi fac parte din decor. Ei acceptă cu plăcere să se fotografieze cu toţi copii, tinerii, ori călătorii fără vârstă, care s-au încumetat până aici. Merită toţi o asemenea recompensă.\r\n\r\nReligia turistului –800 de scări\r\nPentru că locul este şi o lecţie vie de istorie aici vin numeroşi tineri iordanieni de la şcoli, colegii ori universităţi. Le-am luat urma pentru că au fost foarte prietenoşi, şi împreună cu ei am pornit spre mormintele şi camerele tombale unde sunt adăpostite rămăşiţele unor mari demnitari nabateeni. Toate sunt săpate în stâncă, asemenea şi Palatului morţilor ai cărui pereţi tociţi, parcă au fost lustruiţi de furtunile de nisip. Ca şi mormântul lui Sextius Florentinus, guvernatorul roman al Arabiei care a dorit să fie înmormântat la Petra. El datează din perioada 126-130. Cei mai mulţi turişti se încumetă, călare ori pe jos, să viziteze şi celelalte vestigii ale complexului. În partea dreaptă a Tezaurului se desfăşoară Aleea clădirilor şi pereţilor roşii care te conduce spre Teatrul Roman. Iniţial a avut 3.000 de locuri, dar după ce a fost lărgit a ajuns să găzduiască circa 7.000 de oameni. O construcţie care vorbeşte de la sine despre viaţa culturală a oraşului şi dimensiunile sale. Amfiteatrul este săpat în stâncă, iar treptele lui mai sunt şi astăzi martorii unor spectacole muzicale grandioase. Concertele se organizează doar de câteva ori pe an deoarece prioritatea o constituie conservarea şi restaurarea vestigiilor pentru generaţiile viitoare. De reţinut. Nu trebui să rataţi nici vizitarea mănăstirii Ad-Deir, spre care te împinge nu numai credinţa ci şi ambiţia ta de turist neaoş, de a urca cele 800 de scări săpate în piatră.

După cum am informat la vremea respectivă Residence Hotels a devenit primul membru din România al Asociaţiei europene Exclusive Hotels, fiind încadrat la categoriile Luxury şi Charm & Character. Începând din ianuarie 2010, Residence Hotels se numără printre primii membrii ai Boutique and Lifestyle Lodging Association, cu sediul la Los Angeles, singura asociaţie mondială cu acest profil. Residence Hotels se numără şi printre primele hoteluri româneşti ce figurează în topul preferinţelor publicului CNN.\r\n\r\nProprietarul grupului Residence, Cristi Penescu, a declarat că “Residence reprezintă o investiţie integral românească şi am satisfacţia personală că am putut oferi bucureştenilor dar şi vizitatorilor străini, o parte din frumuseţea şi atmosfera reconstituită a oraşului din perioada interbelică”.\r\n\r\nSHOPPING HOTELIER\r\nVlad îşi vinde bijuteria\r\n\r\nOmul care a construit două bijuterii hoteliere la malul Mării Negre, una pe când era directorul general al SC Mamaia SA, alta ca investitor privat, s-a hotărât să renunţe la a doua bijuterie – hotelul Bulevard din Constanţa. Decizia de a vinde unitatea, contra sumei de 15 milioane de euro, nu a fost explicată de omul de afaceri care se gândeşte la investiţii orientate spre alte domenii mai profitabile. Complexul Bulevard a fost poziţionat încă de la început spre clientela de leisure şi business. Clasificat la 4 stele el este alcătuit din două hoteluri, cu 100 de camere, dispuse pe trei niveluri. El s-a individualizat în ultimii ani prin servicii exclusiviste, de top. Unitatea mai dispune de un restaurant, cafe bar, două săli de conferinţe cu capacităţi de 170 respectiv de 150 de locuri, centru de fitness şi relaxare, piscină exterioară şi parcare.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU & ANGELA SIMION','Hotel - revista no 81','','inherit','open','open','','86-revision-4','','','2011-03-15 16:44:23','2011-03-15 14:44:23','',86,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/86-revision-4/',0,'revision','',0),(219,1,'2011-03-15 16:44:57','2011-03-15 14:44:57','INTALNIRE FIJET - BODRUM, TURCIA\r\nDin oraşul lui Herodot până la Efes (2)\r\nO luptă cu doi câştigători\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_82\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Bodrum oras\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nCât de bine se potrivesc ruinele antichităţii cu hotelurile luxoase pline de obiecte de artă postmodernă? Dar istoria şi negoţul febril, consumul excesiv al oamenilor veniţi în vacanţa de vis şi peisajul saturat de albastru al Coastelor Egeei? Citiţi răspunsurile în reportajul următor, dedicat atracţiilor turistice ale staţuinilor Bodrum şi Kuşadasi. Documentarea a fost prilejuită de cel de al 53-lea Congres al Federaţiei Internaţionale a Jurnaliştilor şi Scriitorilor de Turism (FIJET). Coasta de Vest a Turciei şi staţiunile sale diferă în multe aspecte faţă de zona de sud a ţării (Antalya - Alanya) cu care, poate, turistul român este mai obişnuit. Aici ţărmul se desfăşoară ondulat, cu mici peninsule, golfuri şi plaje înguste şi scurte. Multe dintre hoteluri sunt aşezate în trepte, pe dealuri ce coboară spre mare, arhitectură care aduce în faţa ochilor peisaje relaxante.Avantaje ale BodrumuluiBodrum, oraşul lui Herodot (cunoscut în antichitate ca şi Halicarnas), se află pe o mică peninsulă în Marea Egee. Viaţa sa se concentrează în zona Marinei, de-a lungul unui golf ce îmbie lumea cu restaurantele şi terasele sale aşezate pe nisip. Din oricare dintre ele se vede silueta masivă, crenelată, a Castelului. Construit de Cavalerii Ioaniţi pe la 1500 el adăposteşte în curţile sale interioare pline de leandru, turnuri medievale şi un excelent Muzeu de Arheologie Subacvatică. Instituţia a fost deschisă în 1960, dar modul de expunere este unul interactiv, modern. Expoziţiile aduc, pe lângă o multitudine de amfore şi vase greceşti, capturile de pe epave descoperite în zonă (miceniene, bizantine ori medievale). Obiectele din sticlă şi mormântul reconstituit al unei prinţese sunt câteva argumente pentru care ar trebui să vă alocaţi cel puţin trei ore acestei vizite.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_81\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Bodrum piata\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nÎn mica piaţă din faţa castelului se află şi birourile de turism de unde se pot cumpăra bilete de croazieră spre câteva insule greceşti Kos şi Rhodos, situate la o oră depărtare de ţărmul turcesc. Străduţele comerciale încep tot aici şi se complică într-un labirint de alei acoperite cu crengi răsucite de leandru, magazinele oferind genţi de marcă, piele de bună calitate, cămăşi, artizanat. Nu trebuie însă să cădeţi în greşeala de a negocia marfa. Vânzătorii din Bodrum nu mai sunt dispuşi demult la această veche plăcere şi vă pot întoarce spatele, fără drept la replică! Negoţul s-a schimbat aici, dar în rău. E agresiv şi fără farmec.Hoteluri cu stilHotelul Marmara, o locaţie cu design postmodern (uşi transparente la toalete şi tablouri ce au ochi din leduri colarate!) e situat pe vârful unui deal, deasupra oraşului vechi. Vederea asupra golfului, mai ales la apus, e demnă de o seară romantică.\r\n\r\nBodrum Holiday Resort & Spa îţi oferă un restaurant aproape deasupra mării şi o combinaţie seducătoare de albastru mediteraneean, alb şi flori căţărătoare. Imaginea aceasta o reîntâlniţi şi ieşind din Bodrum, în direcţia Turgutreis, unde veţi traversa zeci de cartiere noi, de vile de vacanţă. Depăşind localitatea daţi de hotelul Kefaluka, o destinaţie excelentă pentru familii, cu o vedere splendidă din mai toate camerele, asupra insulei greceşti Kos.Avantaje pentru KuşadasiDe la Bodrum la Kuşadasi e un drum de cam trei ore cu maşina. Staţiunile seamănă mult între ele, ca şi aşezare, cea din urmă fiind însă mai aproape de două puncte de interes: Casa Fecioarei Maria (Meryemana) şi oraşul antic Efes. Complexele hoteliere sunt mari (Fantasia, Rixos etc.) şi pentru toate gusturile.\r\n\r\nLa distanţă de o oră Meryemana este un loc de pelerinaj, vizitat de oameni aparţinând tuturor credinţelor. Legenda spune că biserica din piatră care se vede astăzi a fost construită pe locul casei Feciorei Maria. Ea ar fi venit la Efes împreună cu Sf. Ioan. Se pot aprinde lumânări dar există şi un zid pe care cei doritori pot agăţa bilete cu dorinţele ori mulţumirile lor.\r\n\r\nDespre Efes (o intrare în complex este pe drumul ce coboară de la casa Fecioarei) Strabon spunea că ar fi fost întemeiat de amazoane. Grecii l-au transformat în secolul al VI-lea î. Hr. într-unul din cele mai prospere oraşe ale coastei. Fie că vă plac ori nu ruinele, fie că le vedeţi ca pe o grămadă de pietre inutile ori ca pe opere de artă... e greu să nu vă placă Efes! Oraşul antic are şi astăzi o întindere impresionantă, o zi nefiind de multe ori de ajuns pentru a îl vizita pe îndelete. Ruinele din perioada romană sunt cele mai vizibile. Templul lui Hadrian şi Biblioteca lui Celsus mai că te hipnotizează cu eleganţa şi bogăţia decoraţiunii sculpturale. Strada portului are 500 metri lungime. Pe vremea romanilor oraşul se bucura de aceleaşi privilegii ca şi Roma, strada aceasta fiind luminată noaptea. Teatrul de la unul dintre capetele sale avea o capacitate de 24.000 de spectatori iar în sezon se organizează spectacole variate. Mozaicurile geometrice pavează drumul oamenilor de vază, băile, toalete cu canalizare, bordelul şi ampla piaţă de mărfuri, explicate de un ghid atestat, pot deveni fascinante. Altfel o plimbare de la un capăt la altul al sitului durează cam o oră.\r\n\r\nCasa Fecioarei dar şi Efesul sunt călcate de... puhoaie de oameni, zilnic.Valurile de turişti pot face vizita înghesuită şi debusolantă.\r\n\r\nÎn Bodrum ca şi în Kuşadasi poţi sta o săptămână fără să te plictiseşti. Hotelurile din apropierea lor dar şi cele din localităţile alăturate au serviciu de transport. Autobuzele locale sunt foarte convenabile, sigure, rapide. Staţiunile în sine sunt uşor de străbătut cu piciorul. Vă recomandăm, pentru ambele destinaţii, perioadele de extrasezon. Şi atunci sunt mulţi turişti dar aerul e respirabil şi vizitele mai plăcute.\r\n\r\nSÎNZIANA & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul logistic al companiei ACCENT TRAVEL & EVENTS','Intalnire Fijet, Bodrum-Turcia','','inherit','open','open','','80-revision-5','','','2011-03-15 16:44:57','2011-03-15 14:44:57','',80,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/80-revision-5/',0,'revision','',0),(220,1,'2011-03-15 16:45:24','2011-03-15 14:45:24','[caption id=\"attachment_31\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Demetriade Nicolae \"][/caption]\r\n\r\nNICOLAE DEMETRIADE: „Poţi să faci mulţi bani. Dar e trist să nu ajungi la un echilibru şi să te bucuri de ceea ce ai realizat!”\r\n\r\nE un tip. Are 63 de ani. A absolvit în 1970 Facultatea de contabilitate şi finanţe a Academiei de Ştiinţe Economice din Bucureşti. A lucrat în domeniul aviaţiei, la început cea utilitară, pentru tratamente aviochimice şi ulterior, din 1982, la TAROM. Impune prin ţinută. Lucru rar în turismul autohton. Zâmbeşte la fel de rar. Atunci când se exprimă dă greutate cuvintelor şi ideilor. Îi plac lucrurile durabile şi se poziţionează atent faţă de ele. Dincolo de... armură, omul de afaceri e dublat de unul care simte şi trăieşte româneşte. A făcut-o cu succes pe vremea când lucra la stat, o face şi acum în aceeaşi măsură, în domeniul privat.\r\n\r\n- Domnule Demetriade, în urmă cu 3 ani, vânzarea companiei Happy Tour, pe care o conduceaţi, a reprezentat a doua mare tranzacţie în lumea agenţiilor de turism, după cea realizată de Danubius Travel din Constanţa, care a vândut pachetul majoritar către TUI. Spre deosebire de prima, Happy a fost vândută în întregime fondului de investiţii spaniol GED. Ce v-a determinat să luaţi o asemenea decizie?\r\n\r\n- Am vândut Happy Tour într-o perioada când afacerile mergeau foarte bine în România iar agenţia se afla de 7 ani pe primul loc, ca volum de afaceri şi profit.\r\nAm realizat însa că totul este ciclic, atât perioadele de boom economic cât şi crizele\r\nfiind obligatoriu să reduci expunerea la eventuale riscuri. La decizia de vânzare a contribuit mult şi dezvoltarea businessului care la o cifră de afaceri de 54.000.000 euro pe an, cerea o implicare totală din partea managmentului -adica eu şi soţia, Carmen Demetriade. În 1997 am început cu trei persoane, ca o afacere de familie. Şi cu ce ştiam să facem cel mai bine – ticketing. Faţă de cei care existau în piaţă şi au au început de la zero, noi aveam deja experienţă şi cunoştinţe consistente. Asta ne-a permis să începem activitatea de la un anumit nivel profesional. S-a dovedit că ideea a fost câştigătoare. Am atras parteneri serioşi şi oameni profesionalizaţi, în parte veniţi de la Tarom. După ticketing, răspunzând la cerinţele clientelei, am dezvoltat şi aranjamente de travel, pachete de vacanţă, business-travel etc. Principalul atu cu care ne-am poziţionat a fost seriozitatea şi dorinţa de a prezenta produse noi. După 10 ani, când am vândut Happy Tour, aveam 100 de angajaţi. Dar nu numărul lor era important, ci valoarea profesională şi umană. Numele companiei a fost ales aşa, pentru că sugera asocierea turismului cu bucuria de a călătorii.\r\nEu cred că întotdeauna trebui să ajungi la un echilibru în viaţă. Şi să nu uiţi că, pentru un timp, poţi să câştigi mulţi bani, dar e posibil ca uneori să nu şti când trebuie să te opreşti şi să nu te poţi bucura de ce ai realizat. Decizia nu a fost uşoară, dar când am hotârat să vindem firma, am făcut toate demersurile într-un ritm alert, fără consultanţi, fără avocaţi.\r\n\r\n- Sunteţi un foarte bun cunoscător al aviaţiei româneşti. O perioadă aţi fost directorul general al Tarom, companie de a cărei istorie recentă, vă leagă o parte din viaţă. Au fost mai multe runde de negocieri de-a lungul ultimului deceniu, pentru a stabili o colaborare puternică între travel agenţii români şi compania aviatică naţională! Ce credeţi că a câştigat sau a pierdut industria de travel într-o posibilă alianţă cu Tarom?\r\n\r\n- A fost o şansă foarte bună atât pentru Tarom cât şi pentru travel să realizăm o colaborare benefică pentru ambele părţi, având în vedere că puteam să îmbin experienţa din cele două domenii. Am avut discuţii serioase cu reprezentanţii\r\nANAT din perioada 2001-2002. Au fost chiar perspective de încheiere a unui acord.\r\nAr fi fost un câştig important dar anumite orgolii au făcut să nu realizam decât o parte din intenţii. TAROM cât şi ANAT au pierdut atunci o bună şansă de a relansa industria de travel şi de transport aerian. Dacă am fi finalizat parteneriatul am fi generat numeroase avantaje financiare pentru agenţiile de turism şi pentru transportator. Un singur exemplu: dacă ne-am fi asumat în comun responsabilitatea şi riscurile financiare pe segmentul organizării curselor charter, am fi reuşit să relansăm multe programe turistice şi, simultan, să creştem şi profitabilitatea Tarom.\r\n\r\n- În prima decadă a existenţei Asociaţiei Naţionale a Agenţiilor de Turism din România (ANAT) - organizaţie care a aniversat de curând 20 de ani de existenţă -, aţi fost o personalitate vizibilă în conducerea acesteia. După aceea v-aţi retras, optând pentru dezvoltarea business-ului în defavoarea activităţilor asociative. De ce aţi luat o asemenea decizie?\r\n\r\n- Când te afli în plutonul fruntaş, nu poţi rămâne indiferent la ce se întâmplă cu organizaţia. Am avut o perioada destul de activă în ANAT, implicat afectiv dar şi financiar. Am susţinut de unul singur, pentru o bună perioadă de timp, o emisiune de promovare a agenţiilor de turism pe un important post TV, la care eu am plătit iar alţii şi-au promovat propriul business. Am reuşit să obţin de la TAROM includerea taxei de emitere, în biletul de avion, rezolvând favorabil agenţiilor de turism păstrarea comisionului şi acest lucru a fost făcut în ciuda adversităţii unei bune părţi din ANAT, care nu înţelegea bine situaţia. Am încercat să creem în cadrul ANAT o structură asociativă, care să se ocupe doar de problemele agenţiilor IATA. Şi acest demers s-a înţeles greşit de cei din conducerea ANAT de la acea dată, motiv pentru care am hotărat că este mai prudent să mă ocup de afacerile agenţiei, decât să mă bat pentru cauze care nu erau înţelese.\r\n\r\n- Un om de afaceri din turism afirma: ”Nici un guvern nu a susţinut capitalul şi comunitatea investitorilor autohtoni. De aceea nici un guvern postdecembrist nu a cunoscut succesul!”. Care este opinia dumneavoastră vis-à-vis de această declaraţie?\r\n\r\n- Din păcate, turismul a fost în toţi aceşti ani, cenuşăreasa economiei româneşti, pentru că nu prezenta o problema socială. Guvernele au făcut investiţii serioase în tot felul de industrii falimentare, care au fost finanţate de la buget doar pentru a păstra o linişte socială, fiindcă industriile respective ulterior au dispărut. Turismul ar fi creat o bună şansă pentru România ca din orice dolar investit să obţină minimum 3 dolari venituri. “Ajutorul” acordat de guvern pentru investitorii autohtoni, a fost unul distructiv. A privatizat ONT Carpaţi – un brand naţional valoros cu importante active, cu un investitor din Cipru, pe un preţ infim. În timp ce toate firmele româneşti private, care au început de la zero, au plătit impozite serioase la stat, noii investitori, după ce au vândut toate activele, au funcţionat numai pe pierderi. Nu e un caz singular. Este trist că şi brandul ONT CARPAŢI a rămas la noul investitor.\r\n\r\n- Azi conduceţi firma de turism World Travel împreună cu soţia dumneavoastră Carmen Demetriade. Deţineţi în portofoliu mai multe branduri de colecţie de la cele de croaziere până la cele ale unor companii aviatice internaţionale. În ce măsură vă preocupă acum dezvoltarea unui compartiment de incoming şi vânzarea României ca destinaţie turistică?\r\n\r\n- Afirm cu mare regret că incomingul este doar o speranţă. Nu poţi atrage turişti străini fără să deţii o infrastructură corespunzătoare, fără un sistem de asistenţă sanitară la exigenţe europene. Se fac eforturi serioase de promovare externă dar atâta timp cât nu rezolvăm problema drumurilor, cât sistemul sanitar este în derivă incomingul rămâne un vis îndepărtat. Categoric trebuie să stabilim ce lucruri, ce destinaţii vrem să promovăm, dar mai ales ce poveşti avem în spatele lor. Americanii fac bani grozavi din vânzarea unor stânci ori locuri aflate în deşert în jurul cărora spun poveşti frumoase. Turiştii sunt încântaţi de ele. Noi avem locuri extraordinare dar nu avem nici infrastructură şi nici poveştile care să ne permită să facem bani din ele. Vedeţi, prima dată poţi minţii turistul dar dacă l-ai minţit acela nu mai calcă a doua oară prin România. Apoi, chiar dacă pare şocant, ţara noastră este extrem de riscantă pentru turişti. În cazul în care se întâmplă ceva nu ai unde să le acorzi asistenţa medicală necesară.\r\nÎn ceea ce priveşte brandurile de colecţie, trebuie să fiu la fel de sincer. Reprezentăm mai multe companii aviatice sau de croaziere în România, cele mai importante fiind Emirates şi Royal Caribbean. Nu suntem colecţionari de branduri decât în măsura în care este pot să se transforme în afaceri profitabile. Sigur, este şi o chestiune de imagine dar şi o investiţie de seriozitate a ambilor parteneri. Ca să reuşeşti să le reprezinţi şi să le promovezi trebuie multă competenţă şi răbdare. Iată că Emirates, după ani de zile, devine o afacere profitabilă stabilă, iar compania internaţională de croaziere se apropie şi ea de această linie. Da, a reprezenta o marcă străină poate deveni un business profitabil. Dar el nu devine automat profitabil. Sub acest aspect piaţa românească este încă generoasă în oportunităţi. World Travel derulează negocieri şi cu alte companii internaţionale de top.\r\n\r\n- În viziunea dumneavoastră poate fi turismul cartea noastră cîştigătoare, cu care ne putem impune şi individualiza în Uniunea Europeană ?\r\n\r\n- Şi România poate deveni o destinaţie turistică dar nu trebuie să uităm că am rămas mult în urma vecinilor noştri, cu care nu ne putem compara nici din punct de vedere al sezonalităţii. Cred că nici nu ar trebui să ne comparăm. N-avem cu ce să impresionăm prea mult. Decât cu Delta Dunării, cu Bucovina, cu Maramureşul, care însă se alterează rapid arhitectonic şi din punct de vedere al tradiţiilor. Avem însă şansa să arătăm lucruri naturale în Munţii Carpaţi. Dar ca să le vinzi trebuie să fi foarte aproape de turist, pentru a-l feri de tot felul de evenimente ce i-ar putea altera vacanţa. Să o spunem cu sinceritate - lumea reală din ţara noastră, destul de agresivă, nu avantajează prea mult destinaţiile pe care pe promovăm. Iată şi câţiva factori de risc: oferim lucruri care nu se dovedesc atractive pentru vizitatorii străini; dorinţa unor ofertanţi de servicii de a câştiga cât mai mult pe o unitate scurtă de timp; sezonalitatea turistică redusă – 2-3 luni pe an, atât pe segmentul litoral cât şi pe cel montan. Mai amplu ar putea fi valorificate turismul balnear şi rural. În fine, micii întreprinzători din turism, căci ei formează baza serviciilor nu sunt orientaţi cu faţa spre client. Ei nu au forţa de a se promova şi, ca atare nici puterea de a rezista o perioadă îndelungată fără turişti. Involuţia segmentelor de turism mentionate, era previzibilă. Fără turişti, fără facilităţi fiscale, cu un sezon de litoral şi montan extrem de scurte, nu poate nimeni să reziste mult timp în business, decât dacă face rabat la calitate. Apoi am ratat şi şansa de a privatiza industria hotelieră cu mari lanţuri hoteliere internaţionale, şi de a le atrage spre staţiunile existente, în cadrul unui parteneriat profitabil. De a ne vinde unor investitori străini reali, care ar fi generat performanţă şi profit. În toata lumea, turismul aduce şi alte business-uri şi profituri considerabile. Ca urmare va trebui ca şi România să facă din turism o prioritate naţională.\r\n\r\n- Se spune că România a devenit o ţară a proiectelor fără sfârşit! E acoperită această afirmaţie ?\r\n\r\n- Problema nu e că avem proiecte, ci că rămânem la stadiu de proiect. Ştiţi cum au reuşit să ajungă turcii o superputere turistică în mai bine de un deceniu. Au generat şi au construit sute de hoteluri în cadrul unei viziuni economice naţionale. Ele au fost susţinute de către stat. Sigur, facilităţile fiscale în turism ar fi benefice, dar ele nu se sudează, nu pot genera dezvoltare decât dacă există un proiect, un program naţional clar şi de perspectivă. Pe 15-20 de ani. Partea proastă a lucrurilor este că fiecare guvern, vine mereu la putere cu ceva “original” şi în materie de turism. Şi o luăm de la capăt. Deci nu avem predictibilitate. Reinventăm lumea la fiecare patru ani şi acest proces este extrem de costisitor. Cred că la asta făceaţi referinţă.\r\n\r\n- Deşi este un proiect mai vechi el nu s-a materializat nici azi. Credeţi că este posibilă în România, crearea unei alianţe de travel pentru a forma un touroperator puternic, capabil să se impună pe pieţele internaţionale. Sau acesta este un model depăşit!\r\n\r\n- În 2005, am sperat că pot să materializez un astfel de proiect. Am reuşit pentru prima oara – şi singura dată, să aduc la masa discuţiilor alte două agenţii de turism din rândul primelor 3 din România, în intenţia de a forma un consolidator de travel. Am infiinţat şi o firmă, CONSOLIDATOR TRAVEL, care trebuia să unească forţa de vânzare a celor trei, astfel încât să obţină parteneriate favorabile cu marii touroperatori globali şi companiile aeriene, ceea ce ar fi adus avantaje nu numai agenţiilor în cauză, dar şi turiştilor care ar fi beneficiat de preţuri mai atractive şi servicii superioare. Discuţiile au avansat, am participat toţi trei în comun la Târgul de Turism al României. Dar, din păcate, au fost şi orgolii şi invidie care au făcut ca acest important proiect să eşueze. Am înteles atunci că nu avem şansa de a ne unii în această industrie, de a avea puncte de vedere comune şi am\r\nînceput să mă gândesc la vânzarea firmei noastre.\r\n\r\n- Se vorbeşte mult despre piaţa muncii calificate, profesionalizate. Travelul este probabil cel mai dinamic prin schimbările ce apar în fiecare an la nivel tehnologic şi organizatoric. Suntem pregătiţi să facem faţă ritmului schimbărilor? Nu numai la nivel de top-management, fireşte!\r\n\r\n- Agenţiile de turism româneşti au parcurs într-o perioadă foarte scurtă, etape importante în dezvoltarea tehnologiei. Atât managementul cât şi travel agenţii au demonstrat că sunt bine pregătiţi şi au o capacitate formidabilă de adaptare la cerinţele pieţei. În ceea ce ne priveşte pot spune că, în 2007, Happy Tour avea o echipă capabilă să organizeze orice tip de eveniment. Aveam oameni bine pregătiţi, avem acces la tehnologie şi la touroperatorii internaţionali. Nu eram cu nimic mai prejos decât alte agenţii de turism din străinătate cu un istoric mult mai bogat. În general s-a trecut de la stadiul incipient, foarte rapid la cel modern, avansat. Aş mai dori doar să precizez că sunt partizanul unor competiţii reale. Nu mă interesează cea în care concurenţa scade preţurile până se apropie de faliment. S-au văzut cazuri. Asta nu e concurenţă. Adevărata competiţie se duce pe planul calităţii, unde câştigă cel mai serios, cel care a oferit cel mai bun raport între calitate şi preţ. Şi eu sunt convins că am dovedit acest lucru. Cu Happy Tour şi, acum, cu World Travel.\r\n\r\n- În tot mai multe ţări se vorbeşte despre necesitatea unui naţionalismul economic! Cât de viabil e acest concept în contextul economiei globalizate?\r\n\r\n- Cred că este o cauză pierdută, atât timp cât investitorii strategici deţin cele mai profitabile activităţi din ţară.\r\n\r\n- Unii confraţi de breaslă afirmă că turistul român este unul dintre cei mai dificili dn lume. E o exagerare?\r\n\r\n- Nu suntem mai dificili decât alţii. Poate doar mai exigenţi şi cred că este normal atâta timp cât fiecare turist se asteaptă să primească servicii de calitate.\r\n\r\n- Care vi se pare a fi cel mai important lucru în viaţă ?\r\n\r\n- Dacă eşti sănătos, este foarte important să fi serios în tot ce faci. Aşa vei putea reuşi în viaţă.\r\n\r\n- Dacă ar fi să stabiliţi un top al preferinţelor care ar fi primele destinaţii, oraşe, zone din România?\r\n\r\n- Bucovina şi Delta Dunării sunt două zone extraordinare.\r\n\r\n- Dar în lume. Ce locuri de călătorie preferaţi. Şi de ce!\r\n\r\n- Preferinţele sunt generate de percepţii şi amintiri. Dubaiul -unde am trăit şi muncit zece ani, mi-a oferit momente de neuitat, St. Petersburg -pentru bogăţia patrimoniului arhitectural, Zona Caraibbelor – pentru peisajul marin şi viaţa plină de optimism.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Interviu Nicolae Demetriade','','inherit','open','open','','69-revision-4','','','2011-03-15 16:45:24','2011-03-15 14:45:24','',69,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/69-revision-4/',0,'revision','',0),(221,1,'2011-03-15 16:46:18','2011-03-15 14:46:18','EDITORIAL NR.81 (NOIEMBRIE - DECEMBRIE 2010)\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_43\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"261\" caption=\"Marian Constantinescu\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nDe când nu v-aţi mai uitat la stele ?\r\n\r\nCă tot se apropie sfârşitul de an, cu sau fără zăpadă. Toate vin la timpul lor ca şi întrebarea mea. De când nu v-aţi mai uitat la stele? Ce are asta cu turismul? Ştiu, unii dintre dumneavoatră au călătorit mai puţin în acest an. Alţii au făcut sacrificii până au strâns bani pentru o vacanţă cu buget moderat. Cu toate acestea eu cred că atitudinea turistului român s-a limpezit şi a crescut în demnitate şi verticalitate. E o observaţie. Mă încântă să constat că numeroşi români ştiu la detaliu ce vor de la o călătorie. Şi să cântărească un produs de mai multe ori până să-l cumpere. S-au tras ţepe de notorietate în acest an. Şi, în majoritatea cazurilor, vina a fost deplasată spre agenţiile de turism. Adevărul e undeva pe la mijloc, pentru că şi turiştii s-au calicit să cumpere ceva foarte ieftin. Ieftin au vrut, ieftin au avut. Au vrut chilipiruri de vacanţă. Sună frumos, dar e păgubos. Ca orice comerciant travel agenţi autohtoni au speculat aceste dorinţe. Aşa se întâmplă şi în lume. Vinovat nu e cel care vinde, fraier e cel care cumpără fiind aburit de un preţ mai mic cu 50-100 de euro. Bref, recomand călătorilor autohtoni să cumpere pachete de calitate, chiar dacă ele sunt sensibil mai scumpe.\r\n\r\nCa o paranteză. Am parcurs în aceste zile un studiu realizat de institutele naţionale de statistică din Europa de Est. Potrivit analizei angajaţii din turismul românesc, din hoteluri şi restaurante, au primit, de ce nu mă miră?, în luna septembrie cele mai mici salarii nete din estul Europei – echivalentul a 180 de euro. Informaţia ar fi una banală, pe plan intern, dacă nu am avea termeni de comparaţie. Bulgarii au ridicat 215 euro, în Ungaria salariul similar a fost de 470, iar în Polonia de aproximativ 600 de euro. Şocant nu?\r\n\r\nCu toate acestea există motive de optimism, chiar dacă aţi putea crede că am luat-o razna. România creşte turistic pe plan intern. Mulţi dintre dumneavoastră nu au descoperit încă noile atracţii, complexe hoteliere şi servicii. Dar acest lucru se va întâmpla cu siguranţă atunci când curiozitate va fi dublată şi de o putere de cumpărare mai mare. Deci merită să ne ridicăm capul şi să privim la stele. La cele de pe cer sau din bradul împodobit de sărbătoare. Şi pentru noi este o sărbătoare că ne citiţi, lună de lună, de aproape 15 ani. Povestea merge mai departe. Lumină înaltă în case şi suflete!

La cea de-a XI-a ediţie a Campionatului Mondial de Gastronomie de la Luxemburg, reprezentanţii bucătăriei şi cofetăriei româneşti (4 echipe şi 2 concurenţi individuali) au obţinut rezultate remarcabile. Ca o idee acest campionat – acreditat de Federaţia Mondială a Asociaţiilor Bucătarilor Şefi (WACS) - se organizează din 4 în 4 ani. În ciuda crizei globale şi a dificultăţilor financiare la recenta ediţie s-au întrecut 53 de naţiuni cu 2.400 de participanţi (echipe naţionale de seniori şi juniori, echipe regionale, participanţi individuali).\r\n\r\nÎn această competiţie selectă trei echipe româneşti au obţinut Medalia de bronz: Echipa naţională de juniori a ANBCT-România, la categoria Bufet rece – artă culinară; Echipa regională Transilvania a ANBCT la categoria Bufet rece – artă culinară, respectiv Echipa regională ASPROGAST-România, la categoria Bufet rece – artă culinară. Maestrul cofetar Silvian Miron, a obţinut la individual 2 medalii de argint cu 2 sculpturi în ciocolată, reprezentând pe Vlad Ţepes, respectiv pe Regina Maria. Dar cea mai preţioasă medalie – cea de aur - a răsplătit piesa festivă din zahăr – “Frumoasa şi Bestia”, creată de maestrul cofetar Carmela Dragomir, care şi-a mai adjudecat şi o medalie de argint pentru piesa „Alice în Ţara minunilor”. Dragomir a făcut parte din singura echipă de femei prezentă la Luxemburg. “Performanţa este mai mult decât notabilă pentru reprezentanţii României. Ne aflăm pe un drum bun, cu atât mai mult cu cât rezultatele au fost obţinute de tineri ce nu depăşesc vârsta de 24 de ani. Ca manager al echipei trebuie să fiu însă realistă! Chiar dacă am făcut performanţă ne aflăm încă departe de “masa bogaţilor”. Ne trebuie mai multă experienţă, exprimare culinară, mai multă abilitate şi flexibilitate în utilizarea tehnicilor noi de preparare... iar acest lucru s-a simţit şi a fost penalizat în concurs” - ne-a declarat Gabriela Berechet, directorul general al Companiei de Investiţii în Turism (CIT).\r\n\r\n(Nr. 82, Ianuarie 2011)\r\nALEX BARBU\r\n.............................................................................................................\r\n\r\nOrlando Zaharia este „Cheful” Bucureştiului\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_162\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Orlando Zaharia \"][/caption]\r\n\r\nŞase bucătari s-au bătut la propriu şi la figurat pe farfurii, multe dintre ele considerate veritabile opere de artă.

\r\n \r\n\r\nLa sfârşitul anului trecut a intrat în circuitul bucureştean cel mai nou hotel botique. Epoque este amplasat în vecinătatea Parcului Cişmigiu şi reprezintă o investiţie de circa 9 milioane de euro. Construcţia a început în 2007 şi aparţine firmei D&M Perfect Real Estate, al cărui acţionar este Dan Claudiu Pârâu. Hotelul oferă 45 de apartamente cu suprafeţe cuprinse între 35 şi 110 metri pătraţi.\r\n\r\nÎncă de la deschidere hotelul Epoque, a cărui management este asigurat de Trend Hospitality - companie condusă de Tinu Sebeşanu -, a fost afiliat la grupul internaţional de hoteluri independente Worldhotels. Complexul este primul din România care implementează acest sistem, beneficiind astfel de expunere în peste 100 de sisteme active în industria ospitalităţii. Worldhotels este un sistem de rezervări complet integrat şi are acces la toate sistemele de rezervări şi GDS. Proprietăţile membre Worldhotels se adresează unui segment turistic distinct, acela al călătorilor individuali. Grupul deţine la această oră 450 de unităţi afiliate în 65 de ţări dintre care doar 30 sunt localizate în Europa de Est. Heike Hoerdemann, Director Business Development Worldhotels pentru Europa Centrală, a declarat că există intenţia de a mai afilia încă 4 hoteluri din ţara noastră dar că discuţiile se află în stadiu de negocieri. “Pentru un hotel independent este imposibil să supravieţuiască fără să se afilieze unui grup mai mare de hoteluri, care să îi ofere expertiză şi vizibilitate pe pieţele internaţionale” – a precizat, la rândul său Antony Kuhnen, directorul general al hotelului. Conform acestuia Epoque a fost targetat pentru turişti din ţările nordice, Germania, Italia dar şi din ţările vecine. El va fi promovat în rândul clientelei de afaceri şi al vizitatorilor care văd în Bucureşti o destinaţie atractivă de weekend.\r\nPROIECTE
\r\nPalace - o provocare la Băile Govora
\r\nCelebru cândva, fief al protipendadei din prima jumătate a secolului trecut Hotelul\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_144\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"225\" caption=\"Mihai Handolescu\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nPalace din Govora va renaşte din propriile sale ruine. Cu o sută de ani în urmă arhitectul francez E. Doneaud, începea construirea complexului, care urma să devină unul dintre cele mai frumoase şi atractive locuri de vacanţă din România. Lucrările au durat patru ani (1911-1914) iar „bijuteria” a costat 5 milioane de lei, bani grei la acea vreme. Palace oferea 240 de camere, un Cazinou şi un Pavilion Central de Băi. De-a lungul timpului s-a impus ca monument de arhitectură emblematic pentru judeţul Vâlcea, şi loc de referinţă pentru turismul balnear românesc. Aici au activat medici şi savanţi renumiţi, din ţară dar şi din întreaga Europă. În ultimele decenii clădirea s-a deteriorat iar hotelul a fost închis.\r\n\r\nDeşi în perioada de tranziţie s-a confruntat cu dificultăţi financiare şi de patrimoniu societatea Băile Govora SA a reuşit în ultimii ani să le depăşească. Compania a retrezit interesul pentru turismul balnear şi de întreţinere cu hotelurile Parc şi Belvedere, baze care oferă condiţii moderne de cazare şi tratament. Acum a sosit timpul ca şi hotelul Palace să revină la viaţă. El va intra în circuitul turistic în 2012 cu dotări şi facilităţi de 4 stele. Nu este un scenariu ficţionar, ne asigură Mihai Handolescu, directorul general al SC Băile Govora SA. După cum afirmă acesta „Palace Govora Spa, cum va fi promovat pe piaţă, va redeveni hotelul fanion al staţiunii. Lucrările se află în curs de derulare. Ele sunt prevăzute în proiectul accesat şi aprobat în cadrul Programului Operaţional Regional (POR), axa prioritară 5 ce se referă la Dezvoltarea durabilă şi promovarea turismului, domeniul de intervenţie 5.2. După cum se ştie el vizează crearea, dezvoltarea, modernizarea infrastructurii de turism pentru valorificarea resurselor naturale şi creşterea calităţii serviciilor turistice. Proiectul este cofinanţat de către Uniunea Europeană prin Fondul de Dezvoltare Regională (REGIO) în cazul de faţă Agenţia de ADR Sud-Vest Oltenia şi Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului (MDRT). Costurile eligible se ridică la aproximativ 12,127 milioane lei, din care 59% o reprezintă contribuţia nerambursabilă”.\r\n\r\nPotrivit interlocutorului nostru Hotelul Palace se va schimba în întregime la faţă. Şi nu numai. Vor fi oferite 93 de camere (cu standard de 4 stele), respectiv 39 de camere ( de 3 stele), iar capacitatea de cazare va creşte cu 57 de locuri. Faţada va fi refăcută conform aspectului iniţial. Serviciile turistice vor fi diversificate prin crearea unui Business Club unde vom organiza întâlniri de afaceri, prin realizarea a 2 săli de conferinţe la parterul hotelului, prin asigurarea conexiunii de internet în toate camerele. În ceea ce priveşte dezvoltarea bazei de agrement ea va încorpora sală de fitness, cabine de masaj, saune, solar. Complexul de tratament va fi amenajat, la rândul său, conform standardelor moderne întâlnite în centrele balneare internaţionale. Dotările vor fi şi ele făcute cu echipamente specifice - aparate de terapie cu laser, magnetoterapie, unde scurte, electroterapie, ultrasunete etc. Şi izvorul de apă termală va fi reabilitat.\r\n\r\nCe impact social şi economic va avea proiectul? Directorul Mihai Handolescu apreciază că „intrarea pe piaţă a complexului Palace Govora Spa va permite crearea de noi locuri de muncă (circa 180, temporare şi permanente) şi menţinerea celor existente. Estimăm că anual se vor caza aici peste 3.000 de turişti. E o cifră însemnată dacă ne gândim că pentru anul următor finalizării proiectului Băile Govora aşteaptă să primească în jur de 24.600 de turişti. Sunt aspecte stimulatoare pentru comunitatea locală de afaceri, formată din peste 200 de agenţi economici, dar şi pentru populaţia oraşului (circa 3.000 de locuitori) ce va avea noi oportunităţi de dezvoltare în turism. În plus, ne aşteptăm şi la o creştere a interesului investitorilor străini pentru staţiunea Băile Govora”.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n(Nr. 82, Ianuarie 2011)\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nANGELA SIMION & ALEX BARBU\r\n\r\n ','Epoque, boutique de Bucureşti ','','inherit','open','open','','140-revision-4','','','2011-03-15 17:37:06','2011-03-15 15:37:06','',140,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/140-revision-4/',0,'revision','',0),(230,1,'2011-03-15 18:32:39','2011-03-15 16:32:39','Ce poţi face dimineaţa la ora 7 ? Nimic mai simplu. Te urci în cursa Bucureşti-Budapesta şi într-o oră ajungi la destinaţie. Un zbor scurt, plăcut cu Malev, linie aeriană desemnată de către specialiştii internaţionali drept Best Airlines 2010, pentru Europa de Est. În aceeaşi măsură transportatorul este şi partenerul oficial al campaniei de promovare Budapest Winter Invitation (BWI).\r\n\r\nOdată ajuns la unul dintre hotelurile partenere ale BWI, în cazul nostru hotelul Hilton amplasat în vechea cetate a oraşului, scăpat de bagaje, te poţi dedica programului oferit de către gazde: Oficiul Naţional de Turism al Ungariei (HNTO). Un prilej unic de a cunoaşte o altfel de Budapestă, o faţă mult mult mai profundă a oraşului, plină de substanţă culturală. 2011 este anul Liszt în Ungaria şi nici un efort nu este precupeţit pentru a-l transforma într-o nouă victorie… turistică. Aşa că la… drum. Cicuitele pietonale “Pe urmele lui Liszt” sunt puse în operă cu mare succes de către “Unique Budapest” şi de către ghizi tineri dedicaţi subiectului. Ele cuprind repere ca Academia de muzică Franz Liszt, Muzeul memorial Franz Liszt, Strada Vaci, Teatrul din Pesta etc. Iar dacă se întâmplă să bată un vânt ca-n pustă şi-ţi taie respiraţia nu-ţi rămâne decât să te îndrepţi spre „Essencia Cooking School” şi să te delectezi cu preparatele gastronomice preferate de Franz Liszt şi pregătite de Andreea, un tânăr Chef, deja o personalitate a gastronomiei ungare. Într-o atmosferă modernă şi relaxată, înconjuraţi de o colecţie impresionantă de cărţi de bucate, care mai de care mai importante, gazdele ne oferă din „program”: ouă umplute cu icre roşii şi negre, o supă limpede de pui, un desert delicios, celebrul „lapte de pasăre”, evident totul stropit cu un vin de Tokay, de 5 putoni.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCu NOBU şi Roger Moore la 38 de grade\r\n\r\nDupă un asemenea festin vizitarea Clădirii Parlamentului pare mai lesnicioasă căci e urmată de un brunch – conferinţă de presă - la NOBU, cel mai nou restaurant al celebrului lanţ japonez. Situat lângă hotelul Kempinski Corvinus restaurantul cu 80 de locuri, singurul cu acest brand din Europa Centrală, a devenit un punct de atracţie turistică şi se comportă ca atare.\r\n\r\nIar dacă nu petreci măcar câteva ore la cel mai mare complex termal din Europa, situat în Pesta, nu poţi să spune că ai pătruns în esenţa oraşului. Toate limbile continentului se aud în jurul tău, apa fierbinte la 38 de grade Celsius, în plină iarnă, piscinele exterioare, masaje profesioniste cu tot felul de ingrediente, o cafea, un ceai cald. Un duş scoţian şi zăpada căzând din cer totul îţi creează sentimentul unei lumi fantastice şi o stare de bine absolut meritată. Complexul Szechenyi Bath & Spa situat în vecinătatea Muzeului de artă, este recunoscut, pe bună dreptate, drept una dintre comorile oraşului. Şi pentru că după o baie bună o masă gustoasă este şi mai bună, restaurantul Kogart s-a dovedit a fi o variantă câştigătoare. Atmosfera specială este creată de pereţii decoraţi cu opere de artă contemporană foarte valoroase, provenind din întreaga Europă. Evident, nu lipsesc nici lucrări ale tinerilor artişti români. Vizitele şi fotografiile celebrului actor Roger Moore, un obişnuit al casei, amplifică puterea de seducţie a localului.\r\n\r\nGodollo – un palat funcţional\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_191\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Budapesta Godollo\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nLa ora la care muzeele îşi închid porţile prinde contur viaţa de noapte a oraşului. Şi pentru că budapestanii nu uită şi nici nu strică, paleta de opţiuni este extrem de generoasă: restaurante clasice, crame sau de ce nu aşanumitele „ruin pub”-uri al căror succes în rândul turiştilor şi localnicilor a fost fulgerător. Baruri de noapte în blocuri dărăpănate destinate demolării precum Szimpla, Mumus, Kert, Anonimus, sau Instant au creat o asemenea afluenţă turistică că au salvat de la dispariţie zona respectivă.\r\n\r\nExperienţa budapestană nu poate fi completă fără un mic dejun atipic la faimosul bistro Deryne, urmat de o vizită la WAMP, târgul tinerilor creatori, aflat în plină dezvoltare. Gazdele nu uită că au preşedenţia UE pentru şase luni şi ne pregătesc o vizită la Godollo, castelul preferat al reginei Eilsabeta, celebra Sissy. Acum e Centru muzeal-cultural, una dintre reşedinţele oficiale ale preşedenţiei UE şi, de asemenea, gazdă a Festivalului Liszt 2011.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n3.000 de evenimente muzicale într-un an\r\n\r\nImpactul prilejuit de audierea unui concert Chopin oferit de către marele pianist maghiar Gergely Boganyi este major. Artistul de 36 de ani, interpretează fără partitură, piese selectate din repertoriul său de către public, cu numai zece minute înainte de a începe concertul, transportându-ne în sferele înalte ale unei geniale performanţe artistice: Om-pian-operă. Şi dacă veţi asista pentru prima dată la un concert în Ungaria veţi fi copleşit de atmosfera creată de publicul local. Felul în care îşi aplaudă artiştii este unic şi nu poate fi redat în cuvinte. Întâlnirea cu artistul Gergely Boganyi, care este şi directorul artistic al Festivalului Liszt 2011, constituie un nou prilej de elevaţie culturală, conferinţa de presă transformându-se într-o lecţie de ţinută artistică şi morală a acestui mare, tânăr pianist, aflat în permanentă ardere, deplin conştient de harul său dar şi de rolul său în lumea artei. Veţi iubi Ungaria după ce veţi asista la un asemenea concert. Iar dacă nu sunteţi convinşi vă puteţi rezerva o seară pentru Opera din Budapesta. Construită cu orgoliul de a concura ca replică Opera din Viena, deşi mai puţin cunoscută, mă refer la arhitectură, ea pare mai strălucitoare. Am avut şansa de a trăi o seară specială – Mozart, oferită de către Orchestra Filarmonică din Budapesta, sub bagheta magică a dirijorului Adam Fisher. Magici au fost şi corul, şi solistele şi Recviemul de Mozart. Alături de acestea şi paharul de Tokay, savurat la pauză, şi aplauzele de la finalul concertului.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nNu fugiţi cu ştrudelul!\r\n\r\nSunt lucruri care trebuie „gustate”, la faţa locului. Şi pentru că celebrul poet Pablo Neruda obişnuia să frecventeze localul ne-am încheiat şi noi periplul la renumita cramă Mathias: savori şi culoare locală. Nu poţi pleca din Budapesta fără să te opreşti pentru o cafea cu poveştile de rigoare la New York Cafe. Este atât de cunoscută şi renumită încât o conferinţă de presă despre oferta turistică a Budapestei în domeniul muzucal devine absolut memorabilă. Să nu uităm că oraşul găzduieşte anul circa 3.000 de evenimente muzicale. E ceva, nu ?\r\n\r\nDar poate nu doriţi ceva atât de sofisticat ci o experienţă mai „poporeană”! Atunci asiguraţi-vă o rezervare la „Reteshaz”, o cafenea restaurant de o factură aparte. Aici poţi participa direct la prepararea unei cunoscute plăcinte... naţionale – reteşul, replică a ştrudelului austriac. Faptul că vezi pe viu cum un boţ de aluat se transformă într-o foaie de aproximativ 1,60 metri pătraţi, subţire şi transparentă ca un celofan iar apoi devine o plăcintă cu mere, brânză etc, adică Reteş, te face să-ţi savurezi porţia cu evlavie şi cu mult respect şi admiraţie pentru cel ce ţi-a pus-o în farfurie.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nDă o raită cu autobuzul pe Dunăre\r\n\r\nA, şi, mai este ceva! Dacă vedeţi cumva un autobuz plutind pe apele Dunării nu vă speriaţi şi nu alertaţi poliţia. Vă aflaţi în faţa celui mai nou produs turistic: plimbări pe Dunăre cu autobuzul plutitor. Turiştii au bucuria de a „sări” cu acesta în apă fără frică şi fără niciun risc. La început a şocat, acum este o atracţie preferată de turişti, de tineri, dar mai ales de copii. O experienţă similară am trăit în urmă cu câţiva ani la New York. Acum Budapesta este primul oraş din zona continentală a Europei care a adoptat River Ride, produs turistic, fireşte, de sorginte americană. Iar dacă Budapesta vi se pare prea aglomerată rezervaţi-vă o zi pentru a vizita Muzeul etnografic în aer liber de la Skanzen, creat prin anii ’80 ce deţine în patrimoniu case ţărăneşti din secolele XVIII- XX, este organizat cu panotaje moderne, oferă programe educaţionale variate, toate vorbind despre respectul acordat trecutului istoric.\r\n\r\nNu uita de „Lingura de lemn”\r\n\r\nDacă vă mai rămâne timp nu uitaţi să va opriţi apoi în orăşelul turistic Szentendre, o oază de calm din apropierea Budapestei, cu un aer surprinzător, mediteraneean, datorat mixtului cultural. Şi, reţineţi, nu puteţi părăsi Budapesta fără a face o vizită în piaţa mare a oraşului Nagy Vassar (Great Market Hall), abundenţa de produse locale este suprinzătoare şi mai ales tentantă: a pleca fără celebrul pateu de gâscă unguresc este o lipsă de neiertat de către papilele gustative. Şi, că tot veni vorba, vă puteţi opri pentru un prânz gustos la reputatul birt „Lingura de lemn” (Fakanal), aflat la etaj în incinta pieţei. Veţi rememora mult timp gustul mâncărurilor gătite ca la orice mamă... unguroaică, acasă.\r\n\r\nPe tot parcursul acestui periplu muzicalo-gastronomic au fost alături de noi, gazde amabile, reprezentanţii HNTO, Mark Kincses, un excelent orator şi Emese Tomka, director de evenimente. Dorinţa de a reveni este puternică. Budapesta are ce oferi –non-stop – în orice anotimp. La întoarcere, în avion, îmi dă târcoale o întrebare (fără răspuns): oare ce preferinţe culinare avea Ciprian Porumbescu, contemporanul lui Franz Liszt?\r\n\r\n(Nr. 82, Ianuarie 2011)\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU','La BUDAPESTA în căutarea lui FRANZ LISZT','','inherit','open','open','','187-revision-4','','','2011-03-15 18:32:39','2011-03-15 16:32:39','',187,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/187-revision-4/',0,'revision','',0),(231,1,'2011-03-15 23:07:28','2011-03-15 21:07:28','La Constanţa a fost lansat proiectul strategic “Califică-te!

Aflat la un simpozion cu tema „Viitorul Turismului Românesc. Strategia digitală de promovare a României” ministrul Elena Udrea a epatat prin afirmaţii şocante. Preocupată de viitorul promovării ţării noastre pe Facebook, şi nu e nimic rău în asta, doamna Udrea a anunţat mai întâi un mare succes. A desfiinţat 7 din cele 17 birouri de turism din străinătate pentru că nu s-au dovedit eficiente. „Am economisit un milion de euro pe an, prin închiderea lor”. După părerea domniei sale azi nu mai intră nimeni în aceste Oficii naţionale de promovare. După umila noastră părere nu birourile ci majoritatea celor care au fost angajaţi să ducă această muncă reprezentativă pentru o ţară, poartă vina că România nu creşte în vizibilitate. Iar cei câţiva profesionişti, fac ce pot în comparaţie cu omologii din alte ţări, pentru că nu au bugete pentru manifestări. S-au plafonat. Au devenit simpli funcţionari care aprind luminile doar când vine să participe la vreun Târg internaţional de turism, o oficialitate a ministerului. Apoi lumina se stinge până la următorul spectacol. Da, e o performanţă, ţara a economisit un milion de euro, dar o singură dată. Urmează să fie risipite zeci de milioane, pentru prezenţe turistice în străinătate organizate la preţul... cel mai mic. Doamna ministru a a anunţat că a găsit soluţia pentru a înlocui rolul acestor birouri, şi ca atare se gândeşte să le desfiinţeze şi pe celelalte 10. Facebook, va face minuni, şi va relansa cu costuri mici, interesul uriaş al străinilor pentru ţara noastră. Ne-ar mai rămâne doar să ne pregătim graniţele şi aeroporturile pentru a fluidiza intrările masive ale acestora.\r\n\r\nAbsolutizarea Facebook, care este doar un instrument de marketing, l-a făcut pe unul dintre invitaţi - Scott Gallacher -, managing director The Aston Group, să tempereze avântul declaraţiilor. Facebook nu este o soluţie universală, care le înlocuieşte pe celelalte, electronice ori tradiţionale. Sistemul oferă oportunităţi nelimitate şi pentru promovarea turistică. Este, într-adevăr, ceva fabulos să poţi trimite mesaje la peste 243 de milioane de clienţi care consumă lunar pe platforma de socializare circa 500 de bilioane de minute. Dar trebuie să fim sinceri şi realişti. Călătorii au nevoie de emoţie, de gust, de atmosfera pe care nu ţi-o poate oferi informaţia electronică. Românii au poveşti minunate, dar trebuie să ştiţi să le spuneţi. Pentru aceasta aveţi nevoie de scriitori de poveşti.\r\n\r\n(Nr. 82, Ianuarie 2010)\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n ','Facebook e doar un instrument ','','inherit','open','open','','121-revision-7','','','2011-03-15 17:42:13','2011-03-15 15:42:13','',121,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/15/121-revision-7/',0,'revision','',0),(238,1,'2011-03-16 00:08:41','2011-03-15 22:08:41','EDITORIAL NR.83 (FEBRUARIE 2011)\r\n\r\nPrezentul ne râde în nas\r\n\r\nTrist dar adevărat.

El a fost patronat de către primăria oraşului italian Niscemi, considerat “Capitala anghinarei”. Mai puţin cunoscută în ţara noastră anghinarea, denumit popular şi Carduccio”, este un aliment cunoscut încă din antichitate de către egipteni dar şi de către greci care o foloseau şi pentru proprietăţile sale medicinale. Cultivarea acestei legume a început în regiunea Niscemi în jurul anilor 1850.\r\n\r\nGovanni Di Martino, primarul localităţi apreciază că o vizită în Italia nu trebuie să ocolească gastronomia locală care “impresionează prin diversele feluri de mâncare având la bază delicioasa anghinare şi prin bucătăria tradiţională (piruni, sccaciata, împănate în ulei de măsline extravirgin), toate acompaniate de vinuri albe şi roşii de foarte bună calitate învechite la poalele Etnei. Şi un tur al oraşului ar fi binevenit pentru că ar completa savoarea călătoriei turistice. Nu trebuie să ocoliţi bisericile în stil baroc, Muzeul Civilta Contadina (vieţii rurale), Rezervaţia Sughereta sau piaţa Victor Emanuel al III-lea, una dintre cele mai frumoase din Sicilia.”\r\n\r\nAlături de toate acestea punem şi precizarea lui Gheorghe Răcaru – directorul de strategii şi dezvoltare a grupului Romstrade-Blue Air – care administrează printr-o firmă subsidiară lanţul de restaurante Self, conform căreia, “Blue Air, companie aeriană care acoperă mai multe destinaţii italiene, continuă să susţină asemenea evenimente, gastronomia ambelor ţări oferind perspective variate asupra actului turistic”.\r\n\r\nMaeştri ai gastronomiei italiene au oferit spre testat în timpul Festivalului, mai multe mâncăruri tradiţionale ce au la bază anghinarea, combinându-le cu ingrediente mediteraneene, pe gustul gurmanzilor. Am remarcat varietatea de legume şi fructe, produse în Sicilia dar şi la ferma “La Moşie” (roşii Cherry, ardei gras, vinete, castraveţi, dovlecei, portocale, clementine, pepene galben, mere şi condimente proaspete), calitatea brânzeturilor şi preparatelor din carne, parte din ele furnizate de producători autohtoni, interesaţi de promovare, respectiv de schimburile de valori culturale şi materiale. Una peste alta, seara a marcat un festin culinar, apreciat de cunoscători (excelentă anghinarea umplută), de care au fost alături reprezentanţi ai Ambasadei Italiei la Bucureşti, travel agenţi, proprietari de restaurante şi, fireşte, jurnalişti specializaţi în gastronomie, vinuri şi călătorii.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','SELF: PRIMUL FESTIVAL GASTRONOMIC AL ANGHINAREI','','publish','open','open','','self-primul-festival-gastronomic-al-anghinarei','','','2011-05-24 11:41:47','2011-05-24 09:41:47','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=279',0,'post','',0),(240,1,'2011-03-16 00:14:48','2011-03-15 22:14:48','TRAVELLER MAGAZIN NO.83 (FEBRUARY 2011) \r\n\r\nHOLIDAY MARKET – the second fair of ANAT\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_115\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"196\" caption=\"Holiday Market 2011\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nThe International Conference Centre in the Palace of Parliament will receive over 20.000 visitors between March 17- 20.

Procedura se face pe propria răspundere pe baza unei declaraţii standardinzate.\r\nAcest lucru este prevăzut într-o Hotărâre de Guvern adoptată în luna decembrie 2010 care are ca obiect eliberarea certificatelor de clasificare, a licenţelor şi brevetelor de turism de către MDRT. Normele de aplicare au fost aprobate prin Ordinul ministrului nr. 899/2011 şi sunt disponibile pe pagina electronică a ministerului la adresa www.mdrt.ro/turism/legislatie. O primă noutate - timpul de eliberare a Certificatului aferent s-a redus, el urmând să fie eliberat în maximum 30 de zile.\r\n\r\n“Datorită acestei hotărâri, clasificarea devine mult mai rapidă, iar numărul de angajaţi folosit în prezent de minister cu atribuţii în domeniul autorizării se va reduce considerabil, urmând să efectueze acţiuni de control” – arată specialiştii Ministerului. O altă noutate adusă de aceste norme este că pensiunile din mediul rural nou înfiinţate trebuie să fie amplasate pe o suprafaţă de minimum 1000 metri pătraţi, exclusiv spaţii verzi şi spaţii de parcare. De asemenea, pentru pensiunile agroturistice nou înfiinţate este necesară amplasarea pe o suprafaţă de minimum 2000 metri pătraţi, exclusiv spaţii verzi şi spaţii de parcare, în locuri ferite de surse de poluare.\r\n\r\nAtenţie! Demersul presupune şi asumarea unor responsabilităţi din partea proprietarilor de structuri turistice. Conformitatea realităţii cu declaraţia se va constata în urma controalelor ce vor fi efectuate ulterior depunerii declaraţiei. Nerespectarea condiţiilor declarate se va sancţiona contravenţional. Actul normativ mai prevede că proprietarii sau administratorii unităţilor de primire turistică vor asigura conectarea la sistemul integrat de evidenţă a turiştilor în 60 de zile de la implementarea şi operaţionalizarea acestuia.\r\n\r\nINTRARE ÎN PIAŢĂ\r\nLa Sinaia s-au aprins 5 stele\r\nÎn urma unei investiţii de peste 2,5 milioane de euro compania NDI Grup Expert SRL, a inaugurat la Sinaia complexul Ioana Hotels. Acesta este promovat ca primul hotel de 5 stele din staţiunea montană. El aduce în circuitul turistic 18 de camere, 1 junior suite şi 5 apartamente, un restaurant, o sală de conferinţe, bar, un centru Spa şi o parcare modernă.

Procedura se face pe propria răspundere pe baza unei declaraţii standardinzate.\nAcest lucru este prevăzut într-o Hotărâre de Guvern adoptată în luna decembrie 2010 care are ca obiect eliberarea certificatelor de clasificare, a licenţelor şi brevetelor de turism de către MDRT. Normele de aplicare au fost aprobate prin Ordinul ministrului nr. 899/2011 şi sunt disponibile pe pagina electronică a ministerului la adresa www.mdrt.ro/turism/legislatie. O primă noutate - timpul de eliberare a Certificatului aferent s-a redus, el urmând să fie eliberat în maximum 30 de zile.\n\n“Datorită acestei hotărâri, clasificarea devine mult mai rapidă, iar numărul de angajaţi folosit în prezent de minister cu atribuţii în domeniul autorizării se va reduce considerabil, urmând să efectueze acţiuni de control” – arată specialiştii Ministerului. O altă noutate adusă de aceste norme este că pensiunile din mediul rural nou înfiinţate trebuie să fie amplasate pe o suprafaţă de minimum 1000 metri pătraţi, exclusiv spaţii verzi şi spaţii de parcare. De asemenea, pentru pensiunile agroturistice nou înfiinţate este necesară amplasarea pe o suprafaţă de minimum 2000 metri pătraţi, exclusiv spaţii verzi şi spaţii de parcare, în locuri ferite de surse de poluare.\n\nAtenţie! Demersul presupune şi asumarea unor responsabilităţi din partea proprietarilor de structuri turistice. Conformitatea realităţii cu declaraţia se va constata în urma controalelor ce vor fi efectuate ulterior depunerii declaraţiei. Nerespectarea condiţiilor declarate se va sancţiona contravenţional. Actul normativ mai prevede că proprietarii sau administratorii unităţilor de primire turistică vor asigura conectarea la sistemul integrat de evidenţă a turiştilor în 60 de zile de la implementarea şi operaţionalizarea acestuia.\n\nINTRARE ÎN PIAŢĂ\nLa Sinaia s-au aprins 5 stele\nÎn urma unei investiţii de peste 2,5 milioane de euro compania NDI Grup Expert SRL, a inaugurat la Sinaia complexul Ioana Hotels. Acesta este promovat ca primul hotel de 5 stele din staţiunea montană. El aduce în circuitul turistic 18 de camere, 1 junior suite şi 5 apartamente, un restaurant, o sală de conferinţe, bar, un centru Spa şi o parcare modernă. De asemenea există amenajate un loc de joacă pentru copii şi un snow-park la Poiana Stâna Regală. Prin deschiderea Ioana Hotels, au fost create 40 de locuri de muncă permanente.

Europa îşi revine încet, fiind la coada clasamentului pe continente. Cu un total de 471 milioane sosiri s-a marcat un plus de 3%. Conform specialiştilor ritmul de creştere a fost „dereglat” de erupţiile vulcanice din Islanda, dar şi de instabilitatea zonei euro. Din a doua jumătate a lui 2010 unele ţări au înregistrat creşteri sănătoase, dar media europeană nu a trecut de pragul anului 2008. Unul din exemplele de recuperare este Spania, ţară în care companiile aeriene low cost s-au impus în faţa celor clasice. Ele au servit 31,77 milioane de persoane, cu 5,9% mai mult decât în 2009, în comparaţie cu 25,74 milioane transportate de celelalte companii (o creştere de doar 2,1%).\r\n\r\nOrientul a suflat caimacul\r\n\r\nDintre toate continentele Asia şi-a revenit cel mai repede în 2010, cu un plus de 13%.

Europa de Sud, Centrală şi de Est au crescut încet, doar ţările nordice se află încă sub nivelul anului 2008.\r\nÎn ceea ce priveşte cheltuielile făcute cu vacanţele, în străinătate, tot economiile emergente au asigurat creşterea: China (+17%), Rusia (+26%), Arabia Saudită (+28%) şi Brazilia (+52%). Veniturile superioare pe acest segment au fost generate de vizitatori din Australia (+9%), Canada (+8%), Japonia (+7%), Franţa (+4%) - în timp ce creşteri modeste de +2% au venit dinspre SUA, Germania ori Italia. Britanicii s-au strâns la pungă anul trecut. Ei au ajuns în coada listei făcând cu 4% mai puţine cheltuieli turistice în comparaţie cu 2009.\r\n\r\nDiagnosticul a 300 de „doctori” \r\n\r\n„Recuperarea turismului internaţional este o veste bună, mai ales pentru ţările care se bazează pe acest sector în crearea de noi locuri de muncă şi a unor noi surse de venit. Provocarea însă o constituie păstrarea ritmului pe viitor, în condiţiile unei mişcări economice incerte” - a spus secretarul general al OMT, Taleb Rifai. El a indicat necesitatea unei cooperări mult mai strânse între autorităţi, mai ales în spaţiul european, şi crearea de noi produse atractive. La rândul lor, realizând analiza anului 2010, cei 300 de experţi ai OMT au calificat revenirea turistică drept o „performanţă” şi se menţin cu o atitudine pozitivă pentru anul în curs.\r\n\r\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU','Cât de rău a dus-o turismul în 2010?','','inherit','open','open','','247-revision-5','','','2011-03-16 01:32:13','2011-03-15 23:32:13','',247,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/16/247-revision-5/',0,'revision','',0);

Wellness, Spa şi alte delicatese pentru sănătate (1)\r\nRomânii nu mai ştiu aproape nimic despre ce se întâmplă în staţiunile balneare şi de... tratament. Singura percepţie este că majoritatea au fost jefuite şi distruse de privatizări făcute fără cap, prin procese de proprietate şi revendicări, de interese locale, mai bine zis de dezinterese locale.

investiţional. N-o fac nici Ministerul nici Organizaţia Patronatului Balnear din România. N-o fac nu pentru că nu ar avea bani ci pentru că pur şi simplu nu ştiu cum. Fără prea multe vorbe un travel agent român - Accent Travel & Events - a organizat un info-trip pentru reprezentanţii agenţiilor care fac incoming ori turism intern şi doresc să vândă în cunoştinţă de cauză, mai mult turism balnear. Directorul general Lucian Boronea explică: “Nu poţi convinge un client să cumpere ceva ce tu nu ai văzut. Turismul balnear va continua să crească în vânzările naţionale. Şi aici este rolul agenţiilor de turism. E vorba de mulţi bani cheltuiţi şi ne aşteptăm ca şi hotelierii din zonele balneare să adere la asemenea iniţiative de promovare. Ne confruntăm cu o inerţie. Ea trebuie spartă repede, pentru că altfel pierdem nu numai bani ci şi poziţii în faţa competitorilor internaţionali. Stăm pe un bulgăre de aur dar unii n-au aflat nici azi. A fost o provocare, şi mă bucură că Traveller Magazin este alături de acest proiect. El merită continuat şi de alte instituţii şi organizaţii”.\r\n\r\nPREDEAL: A apărut noul ORIZONT\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Redescopera1.jpg\" "\\"Redescopera1\\"")
Infotripul a început cu o surpriză la altitudine. Hotelul Orizont a rămas istorie. Acum a apărut noul Orizont care şochează încă de la intrare prin designul promovat la nivel de 4 stele. Atmosfera este concentrată pe natural, montan, combinaţiile de verde, crem şi maro fiind dominante. Parterul ca şi mezaninul au fost revoluminate aici apărând spaţii exclusiviste pentru discuţii şi întâlniri, printre care şi o cigar-room, mobilată cu canapele confortabile din piele – ne precizează tânărul Dan Maria, specialist în probleme de marketing al complexului. Loc de leneveală şi idei. Hotelul este poziţionat pe segmentul conferinţe şi Spa, iar dotările rezonează la un asemenea target. Spaţiile de cazare sunt de top, zona de întreţinere şi piscina de asemenea, ca şi centrul Spa unde vă veţi putea relaxa înconjurat de susurul unor izvoare, arome energizante, saune uscate, umede sau cu infraroşu. Hotelul este pregătit pentru a primii 260 de turişti. Amosfera cu lumini filtrate a holurilor şi echiparea camerelor arată că banii au fost investiţi cu folos. Partea de business este fortificată cu un nou corp de clădire unde s-a amenajat o mare sală de reuniuni. La parterul acesteia se amenajează o Cramă cu specific românesc, semn că nici gurmanzii nu au fost uitaţi. Mai ceva ca la Palm Beach. Nu e o metaforă. O spunem în cunoştinţă de cauză.\r\n\r\nCOVASNA: Investeşte în inima ta!\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Redescopera4.jpg\" "\\"Redescopera4\\"")
Credeţi sau nu, vă puteţi simţi ca în Elveţia şi la Covasna. Poate chiar mai bine, susţine Ovidiu Olariu, directorul de marketing al hotelului Clermont (4 stele), deoarece aici veţi avea cu ce să vă îngrijiţi inima, rănită de dragoste sau paradită de stresul vieţii. Dacă n-aţi auzit de viagra românească, asta ca să-l citez pe Herman Rosner – preşedintele Camerei de Comerţ a Covasnei -, luaţi-o din loc şi trageţi în această staţiune. E bine, e dovedit, mofetele sunt binefăcătoare pentru inimă iar proprietăţile naturale de aici au funcţii curative magice. Am fugit de la Clermont, o oază hotelieră şi medicală, că altfel ne pierdeam printre masaje cu pietre vulcanice, printre împachetările cu ciocolată şi mentă. Ne-am dus să vedem cum mai arată bătrânele doamne – Covasna, Montana, Cerbul, Hefaistos. Totul este în regulă şi aici. Investiţiile se văd bine de tot în baza balneară şi au crescut în zona de modernizări şi amenajări ale camerelor. Curat şi ospitalier.\r\n\r\nSLĂNIC MOLDOVA: Caută perla coroanei!\r\n\r\nLa Slănic Moldova am rămas şocaţi de mai multe ori. În bine şi în rău. În bine – celebrul Parc de promenadă şi-a recăpătat strălucirea, e funcţional, e primitor iar clădirea cazinoului e restaurată în stilul ei original. Păcat că nu este accesibilă pentru diverse activităţi turistice şi de faptul că la exterior a fost „perforată” cu nişte urâţenii parabolice. Într-o oază de noroi, a apărut o bijuterie de 4 stele care se numeşte „Coroana Moldovei”. Hotelul e înconjurat de tot felul de clădiri catastrofale. Se pare că investitorii au avut gustul riscului şi au pariat pe această zonă. Merită dacă treceţi pe acolo să trageţi la acest hotel boutique, cu camere tematice ce emană atmosferă de epocă. Puteţi fi vedetă, măcar o noapte, dacă alegeţi, spre exemplu, camera Marlin Monroe – ale cărei secrete au fost dezvăluite de managerul Adrian Durdunescu. Clădirea Centrului de tratament este bine întreţinută şi a trecut printr-o restaurare reuşită. Catastrofală pentru arhitectura Slănicului a fost decizia amplasării unei săli de sport chiar în centrul economic al staţiunii ca şi libertatea de a folosi ce culori vor... muşchii patronilor, la zugrăvirea unor unităţi de cazare. Aşa-zisul complex Pufu, bate recordul la... galben.\r\n\r\nBALVANYOS: O investiţie superbă, dar dezechilibrată\r\n\r\nAm fost curioşi să vedem cum arată noua investiţie făcută de actualii proprietari ai Grand Hotel Balvanyos. Jos pălăria. 4 stele curate. 112 camere. Finisaje foarte bune, spaţii luminoase, impecabil organizate, restaurant pus în valoare de suporturile decorative. Există însă un paradox. „Seamănă mai mult cu un spital, un sanatoriu decât cu un hotel. A dispărut însă baza de tratament!” – a rezumat un travel agent cele inspectate.\r\nNici despre turismul de conferinţe nu prea poate fi vorba, sala de evenimente fiind destul de modestă. În plus ea este amenajată într-o cădire din afara hotelului. Rămâne de văzut unde şi cum va fi revalorificată partea de turism balnear. Aerul şi peisajul sunt extraordinare, ideale pentru turism activ, dar numai atât nu ajunge pentru a petrece aici un sejur măcar de o săptănână.\r\n\r\nBĂILE TUŞNAD: Mişcarea e sufletul sănătăţii\r\n\r\nDupă mai mulţi ani de abandon la Tuşnad se simte bătaia peştelui, adică a investiţiilor. „Perla Transilvaniei” mai are până să-şi recapete strălucirea. Locul e încă „fracturat” de spaţii şi clădiri degradate dar sunt şanse ca principala zonă de promenadă să fie refăcută de către primărie. În partea de tratament hotelul Ciucaş îşi caută o nouă identitate şi clientelă, cu cele 3 stele. Este în curs de dezvoltare a unor de săli de conferinţe, pe care ni le-a prezentat Ileana Colcer, directorul hotelului. Şi complexul Tuşnad, care merge pe programe de tip antistress „Departe de lumea dezlănţuită”, antiobezitate „Adio kilogramelor în plus”, sau de repunere în formă prin „Terapie pentru trup şi suflet” arată că lucrurile s-au mişcat destul de bine în zona de întreţinere. Există piscină cu apă minerală, duş subacval, saună, fitnes precum şi sală de forţă. Dacă nu vreţi să trageţi la fiare, mergeţi la schi, pe o pârtie cochetă, ideală pentru începători şi pentru copii – ne informează Kalamar Andor, preşedintele Asociaţiei de Turism Băile Tuşnad. E amplasată lângă hotelul Fortuna de 3 stele, promovat ca bio-hotel. Dacă sunteţi curioşi, că aşa-i stă bine călătorului, merită să descoperiţi această oază plină de verdeaţă şi căldură. În numărul viitor ne vom întâlni cu alte 5 staţiuni.\r\n\r\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nSIBIU: cu forţă şi determinare, înainte!\r\nVă gândiţi probabil că Sibiul nu prea mai are ce inventa în turism. Regiunea e deja iubită de turiştii germani, oraşul a fost Capitală a culturii europene... În reportajul de faţă veţi citi despre noutăţile din zonă, despre acea realitate care ne contrazice în permanenţă, şi ne arată că lucrurile se schimbă, cu pasiune şi răbdare, în bine.\r\n\r\nFOTO SIBIU | FILME SIBIU\r\nSă te tot duci cu... pluta\r\nLeit-motivul „nu s-a făcut nimic” nu este aplicabil în Sibiu, căci nu este invocat. Sub ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Sibiu-Hotel-Roberts-Sibiu-4.jpg\" "\\"Sibiu")
aspectul ofertei de cazare noutăţile sunt evidente. Hotelul Roberts surprinde prin eleganţă şi bun simţ. Propietarii, ea româncă, el american, fac ceea ce ştiu: oferă servicii hoteliere de calitate şi mai ales îşi iubesc oraşul şi ţara. Ianina e o ardeleancă domoală, iar Sean e un newyorkez get-beget. Au ales România pentru a-şi creşte copii „într-un mediu sănătos, cu aer curat şi mâncare bună”- părerea lui sinceră.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Sibiu-Hotel-Roberts-3.jpg\" "\\"Sibiu")
Vizitarea Academiei şi Bisericii Evanghelice din Sibiu oferă o surpriză de anvergură: Muzeul Landlerilor şi povestea lor. Aici aflăm că zicala „venit cu pluta pe Dunăre” are un dureros fundament istoric şi exprimă tragedia unei populaţii strămutate din ţara natală, Austria, pe atunci în imperiul Austro-Ungar, din motive ce ţineau de libertatea religioasă, la marginea de est a imperiului, în zona Sibiului. Alungarea landlerilor din imperiu s-a făcut cu ... plutele pe Dunăre.\r\n\r\nStiaţi că Muzeul Naţional Brukental, fanionul cultural al oraşului este printre primele muzee private din Europa secolului al XVIII-lea şi că în anul 2010 a primit, din partea Uniunii Europene, ca o recunoaştere a valorii sale, premiul Europa Nostra?\r\n\r\nTrecut istoric şi... termal\r\n\r\nNu trebuie uitat faptul că prin muzeele sale Sibiul oferă o imagine bine conturată a multiculturalităţii zonei în toate epocile istorice. În acest context se înscrie şi vizitarea Muzeului Municipal din Mediaş, posesor al unei impresionante colecţii de costume şi vestimentaţii specifice locului.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Sibiu-academia-2.jpg\" "\\"Sibiu")
\r\n\r\nOraşul s-a dezvoltat în jurul cetăţii, inima sa istorică, iar acum bate în ritmurile prezentului: lanţul hotelier Binder Bubi -modern şi rafinat, Hotelul Traube un hotel boutique a cărui atmosferă de început de secol XX, cu mobilier autentic te cucereşte pe loc.\r\nComplexul balnear de la Ocna Sibiului, o staţiune mai veche decât amintirile noastre, atestată documentar pe la 1263, este o altă surpriză. Efortul depus de Corina – Simona Drăcea şi soţul ei stabilit aici din Austria, s-a materializat prin restaurarea cu succes a bazei hoteliere, respectîndu-se stilul original, cu ajutorul unor specialişti ungari. În prezent se termină şi lucrările de modernizare a bazei de tratament. Stiaţi că şi aici există piscine cu apă termală şi că funcţionează non stop? Fuga la băi!\r\n\r\nÎn ceea ce priveşte restauraţia, nu vă faceţi probleme! Există o competiţie a gustului şi fiecare pensiune oferă ceva deosebit, căci în zonă s-a păstrat specificul local, nu doar în construcţii, ci şi la mâncare. Răspîndite în Sălişte, Gura Râului, Răşinari, Albota, pensiunile surprind prin programele şi surprizele oferite turiştilor, astfel încât au ajuns locaţii repetitive.\r\n\r\nLocaţii pentru „trai pe vătrai”\r\nCum să nu revii la pensiunea Rudi & Ella propietatea unei familii deosebite... el olandez, ea româncă şi doi copii minunaţi. Aceeaşi referire a lui Groot Koerkamp cu privire la alegerea sa: calmul şi frumuseţea zonei, oamenii, siguranţa creşterii copiilor şi evident, mâncarea românească. Deşi nouă, se revine şi la pensiunea La Taifas (nici o legătură cu localul din Bucureşti) căci a devenit locul ce-i cheamă pe pasionaţii de caricatură. Propietarii au părăsit Bucureştiul cu inima uşoară. Mădălina Apostol spune că şi-au regăsit viaţa şi bucuria de a trăi.\r\n\r\nCă vorbim de mâncare: prăjituri de casă ca în zona Sibiului, mai rar! Femeile care le prepară, fie că se numesc tanti Maria, Ileana sau Maricica, pot oferi lecţii celor mai exigenţi cofetari şi patiseri. Nu mă credeţi? Opriţi-vă la pensiunea Sânziana şi gazdele vă vor copleşi cu atenţia lor. Sentimentul dominant este că eşti acasă. Dacă tot nu v-am convins, cereti găzduire la Pensiunea Domnescu. Expresia „trai pe vătrai” descrie ambientul, spune Maria Domnescu. Ajută să ştiţi că cel care prepară mâncarea este un reputat chef, Costel Domnescu. El a dat strălucire bucătăriei de la Athenee Palace dar şi unor localuri din Germania. Sătul de fiţele hotelurilor de lanţ s-a retras la vatra sa cu tot arsenalul profesional. Avantaj net pentru turişti.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Sibiu-pastravarie-albota-6.jpg\" "\\"Sibiu")
Nu vă agitaţi! Ştiu că orăşeni fiind nu prea le aveţi cu viaţa la ţară. Există alternative. Păstrăvăria Albota este una din ele. Amplasată la poalele Arăpaşului se integrează perfect în peisaj.Tot ceea ce serviţi aici, de la afinată la păstrăv şi lapte proaspăt muls este obţinut din producţia proprie. Datorită calităţii serviciilor există o clientelă fidelă iar Martin Mueller, patronul german, continuă să planifice noi investiţii. Da, în mod categoric îi place în România!\r\n\r\nCrochiu de călătorie\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Sibiu-muzeu-rasinari-5.jpg\" "\\"Sibiu")
Tot mai ezitaţi? Schimbaţi direcţia spre staţiunea Păltiniş. Popas obligatoriu la Curmătura Stezii, un loc îmblînzit pentru seri romantice în inima naturii. Dacă insistaţi, atunci Păltinişul vă aşteaptă cu peisajul şi hoteluri larg deschise. Iar la Casa Turiştilor veţi întâlni un manager şcolit în Ungaria, Csaba Gyarmati, îndrăgostit de zonă şi dornic să aducă în staţiune cât mai mulţi turişti. Să nu uităm că Paltinişul este prima staţiune turistică a ţării, atestată ca atare în 1894. În plus este staţiunea românească aflată la cea mai mare altitudine – 1442 metri. În mod cert aerul inspirat va fi la fel de pur precum cel respirat de Constantin Noica, filosoful emblematic al Şcolii de la Păltiniş.\r\n\r\nCeea ce v-am arătat în acest reportaj reprezintă doar un crochiu de călătorie, căci zona Sibiului este un sac turistic fără fund. Documentarea a fost prilejuită de un eveniment turistico-promoţional puţin remarcat de presă. Lansarea revistei-catalog Force Tourism, ediţia dedicată judeţului Sibiu. Redacţia revistei are o bogată experienţă, cele peste 24 de ediţii anterioare fiind mărturia unui profesionalism dedicat şi onest. Până aici nimic deosebit, deosebit a fost efortul, parteneriatul privat, realizat cu FPTR, de a face o ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Sibiu-1.jpg\" "\\"Sibiu")
documentare concentrată asupra ofertei turistice a zonei. Deci ceea ce nu fac ministerul de resort sau ANAT pentru promovarea ofertelor interne face, face după o muncă grea dar dedicată, un editor privat de presă turism.\r\n\r\nEfortul organizatoric depus de Force Turism şi FPTR, singura organizaţie profesională care a pus umărul în proiect, a determinat autorităţile locale să se implice şi să dea consistenţă evenimentului. Ne-au fost alături primarii localităţilor vizitate, Consiliul Judeţean Sibiu, Asociaţia Judeţeană de Turism Sibiu şi opitalierii proprietari ai hotelurilor şi pensiunilor amintite.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU','Redescopera Romania','','publish','open','open','','redescopera-romania','','','2011-03-16 02:36:56','2011-03-16 00:36:56','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=262',0,'post','',0),(263,1,'2011-03-16 02:22:57','2011-03-16 00:22:57','Wellness, Spa şi alte delicatese pentru sănătate (1)\nRomânii nu mai ştiu aproape nimic despre ce se întâmplă în staţiunile balneare şi de... tratament.

A dispărut însă baza de tratament!” – a rezumat un travel agent cele inspectate.\nNici despre turismul de conferinţe nu prea poate fi vorba, sala de evenimente fiind destul de modestă. În plus ea este amenajată într-o cădire din afara hotelului. Rămâne de văzut unde şi cum va fi revalorificată partea de turism balnear. Aerul şi peisajul sunt extraordinare, ideale pentru turism activ, dar numai atât nu ajunge pentru a petrece aici un sejur măcar de o săptănână.\n\nBĂILE TUŞNAD: Mişcarea e sufletul sănătăţii\n\nDupă mai mulţi ani de abandon la Tuşnad se simte bătaia peştelui, adică a investiţiilor. „Perla Transilvaniei” mai are până să-şi recapete strălucirea. Locul e încă „fracturat” de spaţii şi clădiri degradate dar sunt şanse ca principala zonă de promenadă să fie refăcută de către primărie. În partea de tratament hotelul Ciucaş îşi caută o nouă identitate şi clientelă, cu cele 3 stele. Este în curs de dezvoltare a unor de săli de conferinţe, pe care ni le-a prezentat Ileana Colcer, directorul hotelului. Şi complexul Tuşnad, care merge pe programe de tip antistress „Departe de lumea dezlănţuită”, antiobezitate „Adio kilogramelor în plus”, sau de repunere în formă prin „Terapie pentru trup şi suflet” arată că lucrurile s-au mişcat destul de bine în zona de întreţinere. Există piscină cu apă minerală, duş subacval, saună, fitnes precum şi sală de forţă. Dacă nu vreţi să trageţi la fiare, mergeţi la schi, pe o pârtie cochetă, ideală pentru începători şi pentru copii – ne informează Kalamar Andor, preşedintele Asociaţiei de Turism Băile Tuşnad. E amplasată lângă hotelul Fortuna de 3 stele, promovat ca bio-hotel. Dacă sunteţi curioşi, că aşa-i stă bine călătorului, merită să descoperiţi această oază plină de verdeaţă şi căldură. În numărul viitor ne vom întâlni cu alte 5 staţiuni.\n\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU\n\nSIBIU: cu forţă şi determinare, înainte!\nVă gândiţi probabil că Sibiul nu prea mai are ce inventa în turism. Regiunea e deja iubită de turiştii germani, oraşul a fost Capitală a culturii europene... În reportajul de faţă veţi citi despre noutăţile din zonă, despre acea realitate care ne contrazice în permanenţă, şi ne arată că lucrurile se schimbă, cu pasiune şi răbdare, în bine.\n\nSă te tot duci cu... pluta\nLeit-motivul „nu s-a făcut nimic” nu este aplicabil în Sibiu, căci nu este invocat. Sub aspectul ofertei de cazare noutăţile sunt evidente. Hotelul Roberts surprinde prin eleganţă şi bun simţ. Propietarii, ea româncă, el american, fac ceea ce ştiu: oferă servicii hoteliere de calitate şi mai ales îşi iubesc oraşul şi ţara. Ianina e o ardeleancă domoală, iar Sean e un newyorkez get-beget. Au ales România pentru a-şi creşte copii „într-un mediu sănătos, cu aer curat şi mâncare bună”- părerea lui sinceră.\n\nVizitarea Academiei şi Bisericii Evanghelice din Sibiu oferă o surpriză de anvergură: Muzeul Landlerilor şi povestea lor. Aici aflăm că zicala „venit cu pluta pe Dunăre” are un dureros fundament istoric şi exprimă tragedia unei populaţii strămutate din ţara natală, Austria, pe atunci în imperiul Austro-Ungar, din motive ce ţineau de libertatea religioasă, la marginea de est a imperiului, în zona Sibiului. Alungarea landlerilor din imperiu s-a făcut cu ... plutele pe Dunăre.\n\nStiaţi că Muzeul Naţional Brukental, fanionul cultural al oraşului este printre primele muzee private din Europa secolului al XVIII-lea şi că în anul 2010 a primit, din partea Uniunii Europene, ca o recunoaştere a valorii sale, premiul Europa Nostra?\n\nTrecut istoric şi... termal\n\nNu trebuie uitat faptul că prin muzeele sale Sibiul oferă o imagine bine conturată a multiculturalităţii zonei în toate epocile istorice. În acest context se înscrie şi vizitarea Muzeului Municipal din Mediaş, posesor al unei impresionante colecţii de costume şi vestimentaţii specifice locului.\n\nOraşul s-a dezvoltat în jurul cetăţii, inima sa istorică, iar acum bate în ritmurile prezentului: lanţul hotelier Binder Bubi -modern şi rafinat, Hotelul Traube un hotel boutique a cărui atmosferă de început de secol XX, cu mobilier autentic te cucereşte pe loc.\nComplexul balnear de la Ocna Sibiului, o staţiune mai veche decât amintirile noastre, atestată documentar pe la 1263, este o altă surpriză. Efortul depus de Corina – Simona Drăcea şi soţul ei stabilit aici din Austria, s-a materializat prin restaurarea cu succes a bazei hoteliere, respectîndu-se stilul original, cu ajutorul unor specialişti ungari. În prezent se termină şi lucrările de modernizare a bazei de tratament. Stiaţi că şi aici există piscine cu apă termală şi că funcţionează non stop? Fuga la băi!\n\nÎn ceea ce priveşte restauraţia, nu vă faceţi probleme! Există o competiţie a gustului şi fiecare pensiune oferă ceva deosebit, căci în zonă s-a păstrat specificul local, nu doar în construcţii, ci şi la mâncare. Răspîndite în Sălişte, Gura Râului, Răşinari, Albota, pensiunile surprind prin programele şi surprizele oferite turiştilor, astfel încât au ajuns locaţii repetitive.\n\nLocaţii pentru „trai pe vătrai”\nCum să nu revii la pensiunea Rudi & Ella propietatea unei familii deosebite... el olandez, ea româncă şi doi copii minunaţi. Aceeaşi referire a lui Groot Koerkamp cu privire la alegerea sa: calmul şi frumuseţea zonei, oamenii, siguranţa creşterii copiilor şi evident, mâncarea românească. Deşi nouă, se revine şi la pensiunea La Taifas (nici o legătură cu localul din Bucureşti) căci a devenit locul ce-i cheamă pe pasionaţii de caricatură. Propietarii au părăsit Bucureştiul cu inima uşoară. Mădălina Apostol spune că şi-au regăsit viaţa şi bucuria de a trăi.\n\nCă vorbim de mâncare: prăjituri de casă ca în zona Sibiului, mai rar! Femeile care le prepară, fie că se numesc tanti Maria, Ileana sau Maricica, pot oferi lecţii celor mai exigenţi cofetari şi patiseri. Nu mă credeţi? Opriţi-vă la pensiunea Sânziana şi gazdele vă vor copleşi cu atenţia lor. Sentimentul dominant este că eşti acasă. Dacă tot nu v-am convins, cereti găzduire la Pensiunea Domnescu. Expresia „trai pe vătrai” descrie ambientul, spune Maria Domnescu. Ajută să ştiţi că cel care prepară mâncarea este un reputat chef, Costel Domnescu. El a dat strălucire bucătăriei de la Athenee Palace dar şi unor localuri din Germania. Sătul de fiţele hotelurilor de lanţ s-a retras la vatra sa cu tot arsenalul profesional. Avantaj net pentru turişti.\n\nNu vă agitaţi! Ştiu că orăşeni fiind nu prea le aveţi cu viaţa la ţară. Există alternative. Păstrăvăria Albota este una din ele. Amplasată la poalele Arăpaşului se integrează perfect în peisaj.Tot ceea ce serviţi aici, de la afinată la păstrăv şi lapte proaspăt muls este obţinut din producţia proprie. Datorită calităţii serviciilor există o clientelă fidelă iar Martin Mueller, patronul german, continuă să planifice noi investiţii. Da, în mod categoric îi place în România!\n\nCrochiu de călătorie\n\nTot mai ezitaţi? Schimbaţi direcţia spre staţiunea Păltiniş. Popas obligatoriu la Curmătura Stezii, un loc îmblînzit pentru seri romantice în inima naturii. Dacă insistaţi, atunci Păltinişul vă aşteaptă cu peisajul şi hoteluri larg deschise. Iar la Casa Turiştilor veţi întâlni un manager şcolit în Ungaria, Csaba Gyarmati, îndrăgostit de zonă şi dornic să aducă în staţiune cât mai mulţi turişti. Să nu uităm că Paltinişul este prima staţiune turistică a ţării, atestată ca atare în 1894. În plus este staţiunea românească aflată la cea mai mare altitudine – 1442 metri. În mod cert aerul inspirat va fi la fel de pur precum cel respirat de Constantin Noica, filosoful emblematic al Şcolii de la Păltiniş.\n\nCeea ce v-am arătat în acest reportaj reprezintă doar un crochiu de călătorie, căci zona Sibiului este un sac turistic fără fund. Documentarea a fost prilejuită de un eveniment turistico-promoţional puţin remarcat de presă. Lansarea revistei-catalog Force Tourism, ediţia dedicată judeţului Sibiu. Redacţia revistei are o bogată experienţă, cele peste 24 de ediţii anterioare fiind mărturia unui profesionalism dedicat şi onest. Până aici nimic deosebit, deosebit a fost efortul, parteneriatul privat, realizat cu FPTR, de a face o documentare concentrată asupra ofertei turistice a zonei. Deci ceea ce nu fac ministerul de resort sau ANAT pentru promovarea ofertelor interne face, face după o muncă grea dar dedicată, un editor privat de presă turism.\n\nEfortul organizatoric depus de Force Turism şi FPTR, singura organizaţie profesională care a pus umărul în proiect, a determinat autorităţile locale să se implice şi să dea consistenţă evenimentului. Ne-au fost alături primarii localităţilor vizitate, Consiliul Judeţean Sibiu, Asociaţia Judeţeană de Turism Sibiu şi opitalierii proprietari ai hotelurilor şi pensiunilor amintite.\n\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU','Redescopera Romania','','inherit','open','open','','262-revision','','','2011-03-16 02:22:57','2011-03-16 00:22:57','',262,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/16/262-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(264,1,'2011-03-16 02:35:40','2011-03-16 00:35:40','Wellness, Spa şi alte delicatese pentru sănătate (1)\nRomânii nu mai ştiu aproape nimic despre ce se întâmplă în staţiunile balneare şi de... tratament. Singura percepţie este că majoritatea au fost jefuite şi distruse de privatizări făcute fără cap, prin procese de proprietate şi revendicări, de interese locale, mai bine zis de dezinterese locale. Dar asta e o jumătate de realitate.\n\nAşa a decăzut celui mai important segment al turismului românesc. Balnearul e important, pentru că are resurse naturale inepuizabile, afirmă specialiştii. Important, pentru că funcţionează pe tot parcursul anului şi pentru că, odată cu îmbătrânirea populaţiei, clientela creşte în mod natural. Dar turismul de tratament autohton nu este singur pe lume. Avem în Europa competitori mari. Chiar dacă ne credem buricul pământului nu mai contăm de o vreme pentru că ne-am pierdut pieţele internaţionale furnizoare. Numeroase hoteluri au fost pur şi simplu distruse de... investitori nepricepuţi în paralel cu conceptul unitar de staţiune balneară. Nu facem atingere la bazele de tratament. Multe dintre ele au supravieţuit graţie unor oameni cu viziune şi unui minim de circulaţie turistică asigurată prin Ministerul Muncii. Majoritatea staţiunilor trăiau din deverul turiştilor trecuţi de 55 de ani. Cam acesta era tabloul anilor 2000.\n\nCe e de făcut ?\nAr fi nevoie de promovare spun specialiştii la unison. De promovarea noului potenţial investiţional. N-o fac nici Ministerul nici Organizaţia Patronatului Balnear din România. N-o fac nu pentru că nu ar avea bani ci pentru că pur şi simplu nu ştiu cum. Fără prea multe vorbe un travel agent român - Accent Travel & Events - a organizat un info-trip pentru reprezentanţii agenţiilor care fac incoming ori turism intern şi doresc să vândă în cunoştinţă de cauză, mai mult turism balnear. Directorul general Lucian Boronea explică: “Nu poţi convinge un client să cumpere ceva ce tu nu ai văzut. Turismul balnear va continua să crească în vânzările naţionale. Şi aici este rolul agenţiilor de turism. E vorba de mulţi bani cheltuiţi şi ne aşteptăm ca şi hotelierii din zonele balneare să adere la asemenea iniţiative de promovare. Ne confruntăm cu o inerţie. Ea trebuie spartă repede, pentru că altfel pierdem nu numai bani ci şi poziţii în faţa competitorilor internaţionali. Stăm pe un bulgăre de aur dar unii n-au aflat nici azi. A fost o provocare, şi mă bucură că Traveller Magazin este alături de acest proiect. El merită continuat şi de alte instituţii şi organizaţii”.\n\nPREDEAL: A apărut noul ORIZONT\n\nInfotripul a început cu o surpriză la altitudine. Hotelul Orizont a rămas istorie. Acum a apărut noul Orizont care şochează încă de la intrare prin designul promovat la nivel de 4 stele. Atmosfera este concentrată pe natural, montan, combinaţiile de verde, crem şi maro fiind dominante. Parterul ca şi mezaninul au fost revoluminate aici apărând spaţii exclusiviste pentru discuţii şi întâlniri, printre care şi o cigar-room, mobilată cu canapele confortabile din piele – ne precizează tânărul Dan Maria, specialist în probleme de marketing al complexului. Loc de leneveală şi idei. Hotelul este poziţionat pe segmentul conferinţe şi Spa, iar dotările rezonează la un asemenea target. Spaţiile de cazare sunt de top, zona de întreţinere şi piscina de asemenea, ca şi centrul Spa unde vă veţi putea relaxa înconjurat de susurul unor izvoare, arome energizante, saune uscate, umede sau cu infraroşu. Hotelul este pregătit pentru a primii 260 de turişti. Amosfera cu lumini filtrate a holurilor şi echiparea camerelor arată că banii au fost investiţi cu folos. Partea de business este fortificată cu un nou corp de clădire unde s-a amenajat o mare sală de reuniuni. La parterul acesteia se amenajează o Cramă cu specific românesc, semn că nici gurmanzii nu au fost uitaţi. Mai ceva ca la Palm Beach. Nu e o metaforă. O spunem în cunoştinţă de cauză.\n\nCOVASNA: Investeşte în inima ta!\n\nCredeţi sau nu, vă puteţi simţi ca în Elveţia şi la Covasna. Poate chiar mai bine, susţine Ovidiu Olariu, directorul de marketing al hotelului Clermont (4 stele), deoarece aici veţi avea cu ce să vă îngrijiţi inima, rănită de dragoste sau paradită de stresul vieţii. Dacă n-aţi auzit de viagra românească, asta ca să-l citez pe Herman Rosner – preşedintele Camerei de Comerţ a Covasnei -, luaţi-o din loc şi trageţi în această staţiune. E bine, e dovedit, mofetele sunt binefăcătoare pentru inimă iar proprietăţile naturale de aici au funcţii curative magice. Am fugit de la Clermont, o oază hotelieră şi medicală, că altfel ne pierdeam printre masaje cu pietre vulcanice, printre împachetările cu ciocolată şi mentă. Ne-am dus să vedem cum mai arată bătrânele doamne – Covasna, Montana, Cerbul, Hefaistos. Totul este în regulă şi aici. Investiţiile se văd bine de tot în baza balneară şi au crescut în zona de modernizări şi amenajări ale camerelor. Curat şi ospitalier.\n\nSLĂNIC MOLDOVA: Caută perla coroanei!\n\nLa Slănic Moldova am rămas şocaţi de mai multe ori. În bine şi în rău. În bine – celebrul Parc de promenadă şi-a recăpătat strălucirea, e funcţional, e primitor iar clădirea cazinoului e restaurată în stilul ei original. Păcat că nu este accesibilă pentru diverse activităţi turistice şi de faptul că la exterior a fost „perforată” cu nişte urâţenii parabolice. Într-o oază de noroi, a apărut o bijuterie de 4 stele care se numeşte „Coroana Moldovei”. Hotelul e înconjurat de tot felul de clădiri catastrofale. Se pare că investitorii au avut gustul riscului şi au pariat pe această zonă. Merită dacă treceţi pe acolo să trageţi la acest hotel boutique, cu camere tematice ce emană atmosferă de epocă. Puteţi fi vedetă, măcar o noapte, dacă alegeţi, spre exemplu, camera Marlin Monroe – ale cărei secrete au fost dezvăluite de managerul Adrian Durdunescu. Clădirea Centrului de tratament este bine întreţinută şi a trecut printr-o restaurare reuşită. Catastrofală pentru arhitectura Slănicului a fost decizia amplasării unei săli de sport chiar în centrul economic al staţiunii ca şi libertatea de a folosi ce culori vor... muşchii patronilor, la zugrăvirea unor unităţi de cazare. Aşa-zisul complex Pufu, bate recordul la... galben.\n\nBALVANYOS: O investiţie superbă, dar dezechilibrată\n\nAm fost curioşi să vedem cum arată noua investiţie făcută de actualii proprietari ai Grand Hotel Balvanyos. Jos pălăria. 4 stele curate. 112 camere. Finisaje foarte bune, spaţii luminoase, impecabil organizate, restaurant pus în valoare de suporturile decorative.

Majoritatea staţiunilor trăiau din deverul turiştilor trecuţi de 55 de ani. Cam acesta era tabloul anilor 2000.\r\n\r\nCe e de făcut ?\r\nAr fi nevoie de promovare spun specialiştii la unison. De promovarea noului potenţial investiţional. N-o fac nici Ministerul nici Organizaţia Patronatului Balnear din România. N-o fac nu pentru că nu ar avea bani ci pentru că pur şi simplu nu ştiu cum. Fără prea multe vorbe un travel agent român - Accent Travel & Events - a organizat un info-trip pentru reprezentanţii agenţiilor care fac incoming ori turism intern şi doresc să vândă în cunoştinţă de cauză, mai mult turism balnear. Directorul general Lucian Boronea explică: “Nu poţi convinge un client să cumpere ceva ce tu nu ai văzut. Turismul balnear va continua să crească în vânzările naţionale. Şi aici este rolul agenţiilor de turism. E vorba de mulţi bani cheltuiţi şi ne aşteptăm ca şi hotelierii din zonele balneare să adere la asemenea iniţiative de promovare. Ne confruntăm cu o inerţie. Ea trebuie spartă repede, pentru că altfel pierdem nu numai bani ci şi poziţii în faţa competitorilor internaţionali. Stăm pe un bulgăre de aur dar unii n-au aflat nici azi. A fost o provocare, şi mă bucură că Traveller Magazin este alături de acest proiect. El merită continuat şi de alte instituţii şi organizaţii”.\r\n\r\nPREDEAL: A apărut noul ORIZONT\r\n\r\nInfotripul a început cu o surpriză la altitudine. Hotelul Orizont a rămas istorie. Acum a apărut noul Orizont care şochează încă de la intrare prin designul promovat la nivel de 4 stele. Atmosfera este concentrată pe natural, montan, combinaţiile de verde, crem şi maro fiind dominante. Parterul ca şi mezaninul au fost revoluminate aici apărând spaţii exclusiviste pentru discuţii şi întâlniri, printre care şi o cigar-room, mobilată cu canapele confortabile din piele – ne precizează tânărul Dan Maria, specialist în probleme de marketing al complexului. Loc de leneveală şi idei. Hotelul este poziţionat pe segmentul conferinţe şi Spa, iar dotările rezonează la un asemenea target. Spaţiile de cazare sunt de top, zona de întreţinere şi piscina de asemenea, ca şi centrul Spa unde vă veţi putea relaxa înconjurat de susurul unor izvoare, arome energizante, saune uscate, umede sau cu infraroşu. Hotelul este pregătit pentru a primii 260 de turişti. Amosfera cu lumini filtrate a holurilor şi echiparea camerelor arată că banii au fost investiţi cu folos. Partea de business este fortificată cu un nou corp de clădire unde s-a amenajat o mare sală de reuniuni. La parterul acesteia se amenajează o Cramă cu specific românesc, semn că nici gurmanzii nu au fost uitaţi. Mai ceva ca la Palm Beach. Nu e o metaforă. O spunem în cunoştinţă de cauză.\r\n\r\nCOVASNA: Investeşte în inima ta!\r\n\r\nCredeţi sau nu, vă puteţi simţi ca în Elveţia şi la Covasna. Poate chiar mai bine, susţine Ovidiu Olariu, directorul de marketing al hotelului Clermont (4 stele), deoarece aici veţi avea cu ce să vă îngrijiţi inima, rănită de dragoste sau paradită de stresul vieţii. Dacă n-aţi auzit de viagra românească, asta ca să-l citez pe Herman Rosner – preşedintele Camerei de Comerţ a Covasnei -, luaţi-o din loc şi trageţi în această staţiune. E bine, e dovedit, mofetele sunt binefăcătoare pentru inimă iar proprietăţile naturale de aici au funcţii curative magice. Am fugit de la Clermont, o oază hotelieră şi medicală, că altfel ne pierdeam printre masaje cu pietre vulcanice, printre împachetările cu ciocolată şi mentă. Ne-am dus să vedem cum mai arată bătrânele doamne – Covasna, Montana, Cerbul, Hefaistos. Totul este în regulă şi aici. Investiţiile se văd bine de tot în baza balneară şi au crescut în zona de modernizări şi amenajări ale camerelor. Curat şi ospitalier.\r\n\r\nSLĂNIC MOLDOVA: Caută perla coroanei!\r\n\r\nLa Slănic Moldova am rămas şocaţi de mai multe ori. În bine şi în rău. În bine – celebrul Parc de promenadă şi-a recăpătat strălucirea, e funcţional, e primitor iar clădirea cazinoului e restaurată în stilul ei original. Păcat că nu este accesibilă pentru diverse activităţi turistice şi de faptul că la exterior a fost „perforată” cu nişte urâţenii parabolice. Într-o oază de noroi, a apărut o bijuterie de 4 stele care se numeşte „Coroana Moldovei”. Hotelul e înconjurat de tot felul de clădiri catastrofale. Se pare că investitorii au avut gustul riscului şi au pariat pe această zonă. Merită dacă treceţi pe acolo să trageţi la acest hotel boutique, cu camere tematice ce emană atmosferă de epocă. Puteţi fi vedetă, măcar o noapte, dacă alegeţi, spre exemplu, camera Marlin Monroe – ale cărei secrete au fost dezvăluite de managerul Adrian Durdunescu. Clădirea Centrului de tratament este bine întreţinută şi a trecut printr-o restaurare reuşită. Catastrofală pentru arhitectura Slănicului a fost decizia amplasării unei săli de sport chiar în centrul economic al staţiunii ca şi libertatea de a folosi ce culori vor... muşchii patronilor, la zugrăvirea unor unităţi de cazare. Aşa-zisul complex Pufu, bate recordul la... galben.\r\n\r\nBALVANYOS: O investiţie superbă, dar dezechilibrată\r\n\r\nAm fost curioşi să vedem cum arată noua investiţie făcută de actualii proprietari ai Grand Hotel Balvanyos. Jos pălăria. 4 stele curate. 112 camere. Finisaje foarte bune, spaţii luminoase, impecabil organizate, restaurant pus în valoare de suporturile decorative. Există însă un paradox. „Seamănă mai mult cu un spital, un sanatoriu decât cu un hotel. A dispărut însă baza de tratament!” – a rezumat un travel agent cele inspectate.\r\nNici despre turismul de conferinţe nu prea poate fi vorba, sala de evenimente fiind destul de modestă. În plus ea este amenajată într-o cădire din afara hotelului. Rămâne de văzut unde şi cum va fi revalorificată partea de turism balnear. Aerul şi peisajul sunt extraordinare, ideale pentru turism activ, dar numai atât nu ajunge pentru a petrece aici un sejur măcar de o săptănână.\r\n\r\nBĂILE TUŞNAD: Mişcarea e sufletul sănătăţii\r\n\r\nDupă mai mulţi ani de abandon la Tuşnad se simte bătaia peştelui, adică a investiţiilor. „Perla Transilvaniei” mai are până să-şi recapete strălucirea. Locul e încă „fracturat” de spaţii şi clădiri degradate dar sunt şanse ca principala zonă de promenadă să fie refăcută de către primărie. În partea de tratament hotelul Ciucaş îşi caută o nouă identitate şi clientelă, cu cele 3 stele. Este în curs de dezvoltare a unor de săli de conferinţe, pe care ni le-a prezentat Ileana Colcer, directorul hotelului. Şi complexul Tuşnad, care merge pe programe de tip antistress „Departe de lumea dezlănţuită”, antiobezitate „Adio kilogramelor în plus”, sau de repunere în formă prin „Terapie pentru trup şi suflet” arată că lucrurile s-au mişcat destul de bine în zona de întreţinere. Există piscină cu apă minerală, duş subacval, saună, fitnes precum şi sală de forţă. Dacă nu vreţi să trageţi la fiare, mergeţi la schi, pe o pârtie cochetă, ideală pentru începători şi pentru copii – ne informează Kalamar Andor, preşedintele Asociaţiei de Turism Băile Tuşnad. E amplasată lângă hotelul Fortuna de 3 stele, promovat ca bio-hotel. Dacă sunteţi curioşi, că aşa-i stă bine călătorului, merită să descoperiţi această oază plină de verdeaţă şi căldură. În numărul viitor ne vom întâlni cu alte 5 staţiuni.\r\n\r\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nSIBIU: cu forţă şi determinare, înainte!\r\nVă gândiţi probabil că Sibiul nu prea mai are ce inventa în turism. Regiunea e deja iubită de turiştii germani, oraşul a fost Capitală a culturii europene... În reportajul de faţă veţi citi despre noutăţile din zonă, despre acea realitate care ne contrazice în permanenţă, şi ne arată că lucrurile se schimbă, cu pasiune şi răbdare, în bine.\r\n\r\nSă te tot duci cu... pluta\r\nLeit-motivul „nu s-a făcut nimic” nu este aplicabil în Sibiu, căci nu este invocat. Sub aspectul ofertei de cazare noutăţile sunt evidente. Hotelul Roberts surprinde prin eleganţă şi bun simţ. Propietarii, ea româncă, el american, fac ceea ce ştiu: oferă servicii hoteliere de calitate şi mai ales îşi iubesc oraşul şi ţara. Ianina e o ardeleancă domoală, iar Sean e un newyorkez get-beget. Au ales România pentru a-şi creşte copii „într-un mediu sănătos, cu aer curat şi mâncare bună”- părerea lui sinceră.\r\n\r\nVizitarea Academiei şi Bisericii Evanghelice din Sibiu oferă o surpriză de anvergură: Muzeul Landlerilor şi povestea lor. Aici aflăm că zicala „venit cu pluta pe Dunăre” are un dureros fundament istoric şi exprimă tragedia unei populaţii strămutate din ţara natală, Austria, pe atunci în imperiul Austro-Ungar, din motive ce ţineau de libertatea religioasă, la marginea de est a imperiului, în zona Sibiului. Alungarea landlerilor din imperiu s-a făcut cu ... plutele pe Dunăre.\r\n\r\nStiaţi că Muzeul Naţional Brukental, fanionul cultural al oraşului este printre primele muzee private din Europa secolului al XVIII-lea şi că în anul 2010 a primit, din partea Uniunii Europene, ca o recunoaştere a valorii sale, premiul Europa Nostra?\r\n\r\nTrecut istoric şi... termal\r\n\r\nNu trebuie uitat faptul că prin muzeele sale Sibiul oferă o imagine bine conturată a multiculturalităţii zonei în toate epocile istorice. În acest context se înscrie şi vizitarea Muzeului Municipal din Mediaş, posesor al unei impresionante colecţii de costume şi vestimentaţii specifice locului.\r\n\r\nOraşul s-a dezvoltat în jurul cetăţii, inima sa istorică, iar acum bate în ritmurile prezentului: lanţul hotelier Binder Bubi -modern şi rafinat, Hotelul Traube un hotel boutique a cărui atmosferă de început de secol XX, cu mobilier autentic te cucereşte pe loc.\r\nComplexul balnear de la Ocna Sibiului, o staţiune mai veche decât amintirile noastre, atestată documentar pe la 1263, este o altă surpriză. Efortul depus de Corina – Simona Drăcea şi soţul ei stabilit aici din Austria, s-a materializat prin restaurarea cu succes a bazei hoteliere, respectîndu-se stilul original, cu ajutorul unor specialişti ungari. În prezent se termină şi lucrările de modernizare a bazei de tratament. Stiaţi că şi aici există piscine cu apă termală şi că funcţionează non stop? Fuga la băi!\r\n\r\nÎn ceea ce priveşte restauraţia, nu vă faceţi probleme! Există o competiţie a gustului şi fiecare pensiune oferă ceva deosebit, căci în zonă s-a păstrat specificul local, nu doar în construcţii, ci şi la mâncare. Răspîndite în Sălişte, Gura Râului, Răşinari, Albota, pensiunile surprind prin programele şi surprizele oferite turiştilor, astfel încât au ajuns locaţii repetitive.\r\n\r\nLocaţii pentru „trai pe vătrai”\r\nCum să nu revii la pensiunea Rudi & Ella propietatea unei familii deosebite... el olandez, ea româncă şi doi copii minunaţi. Aceeaşi referire a lui Groot Koerkamp cu privire la alegerea sa: calmul şi frumuseţea zonei, oamenii, siguranţa creşterii copiilor şi evident, mâncarea românească. Deşi nouă, se revine şi la pensiunea La Taifas (nici o legătură cu localul din Bucureşti) căci a devenit locul ce-i cheamă pe pasionaţii de caricatură. Propietarii au părăsit Bucureştiul cu inima uşoară. Mădălina Apostol spune că şi-au regăsit viaţa şi bucuria de a trăi.\r\n\r\nCă vorbim de mâncare: prăjituri de casă ca în zona Sibiului, mai rar! Femeile care le prepară, fie că se numesc tanti Maria, Ileana sau Maricica, pot oferi lecţii celor mai exigenţi cofetari şi patiseri. Nu mă credeţi? Opriţi-vă la pensiunea Sânziana şi gazdele vă vor copleşi cu atenţia lor. Sentimentul dominant este că eşti acasă. Dacă tot nu v-am convins, cereti găzduire la Pensiunea Domnescu. Expresia „trai pe vătrai” descrie ambientul, spune Maria Domnescu. Ajută să ştiţi că cel care prepară mâncarea este un reputat chef, Costel Domnescu. El a dat strălucire bucătăriei de la Athenee Palace dar şi unor localuri din Germania. Sătul de fiţele hotelurilor de lanţ s-a retras la vatra sa cu tot arsenalul profesional. Avantaj net pentru turişti.\r\n\r\nNu vă agitaţi! Ştiu că orăşeni fiind nu prea le aveţi cu viaţa la ţară. Există alternative. Păstrăvăria Albota este una din ele. Amplasată la poalele Arăpaşului se integrează perfect în peisaj.Tot ceea ce serviţi aici, de la afinată la păstrăv şi lapte proaspăt muls este obţinut din producţia proprie. Datorită calităţii serviciilor există o clientelă fidelă iar Martin Mueller, patronul german, continuă să planifice noi investiţii. Da, în mod categoric îi place în România!\r\n\r\nCrochiu de călătorie\r\n\r\nTot mai ezitaţi? Schimbaţi direcţia spre staţiunea Păltiniş. Popas obligatoriu la Curmătura Stezii, un loc îmblînzit pentru seri romantice în inima naturii. Dacă insistaţi, atunci Păltinişul vă aşteaptă cu peisajul şi hoteluri larg deschise. Iar la Casa Turiştilor veţi întâlni un manager şcolit în Ungaria, Csaba Gyarmati, îndrăgostit de zonă şi dornic să aducă în staţiune cât mai mulţi turişti. Să nu uităm că Paltinişul este prima staţiune turistică a ţării, atestată ca atare în 1894. În plus este staţiunea românească aflată la cea mai mare altitudine – 1442 metri. În mod cert aerul inspirat va fi la fel de pur precum cel respirat de Constantin Noica, filosoful emblematic al Şcolii de la Păltiniş.\r\n\r\nCeea ce v-am arătat în acest reportaj reprezintă doar un crochiu de călătorie, căci zona Sibiului este un sac turistic fără fund. Documentarea a fost prilejuită de un eveniment turistico-promoţional puţin remarcat de presă. Lansarea revistei-catalog Force Tourism, ediţia dedicată judeţului Sibiu. Redacţia revistei are o bogată experienţă, cele peste 24 de ediţii anterioare fiind mărturia unui profesionalism dedicat şi onest. Până aici nimic deosebit, deosebit a fost efortul, parteneriatul privat, realizat cu FPTR, de a face o documentare concentrată asupra ofertei turistice a zonei. Deci ceea ce nu fac ministerul de resort sau ANAT pentru promovarea ofertelor interne face, face după o muncă grea dar dedicată, un editor privat de presă turism.\r\n\r\nEfortul organizatoric depus de Force Turism şi FPTR, singura organizaţie profesională care a pus umărul în proiect, a determinat autorităţile locale să se implice şi să dea consistenţă evenimentului. Ne-au fost alături primarii localităţilor vizitate, Consiliul Judeţean Sibiu, Asociaţia Judeţeană de Turism Sibiu şi opitalierii proprietari ai hotelurilor şi pensiunilor amintite.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU','Redescopera Romania','','inherit','open','open','','262-revision-2','','','2011-03-16 02:23:14','2011-03-16 00:23:14','',262,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/16/262-revision-2/',0,'revision','',0),(266,1,'2011-03-16 02:28:24','2011-03-16 00:28:24','','Sibiu 1','','inherit','open','open','','sibiu-1','','','2011-03-16 02:28:24','2011-03-16 00:28:24','',262,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Sibiu-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(267,1,'2011-03-16 02:28:27','2011-03-16 00:28:27','','Sibiu academia 2','','inherit','open','open','','sibiu-academia-2','','','2011-03-16 02:28:27','2011-03-16 00:28:27','',262,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Sibiu-academia-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(268,1,'2011-03-16 02:28:31','2011-03-16 00:28:31','','Sibiu Hotel Roberts 3','','inherit','open','open','','sibiu-hotel-roberts-3','','','2011-03-16 02:28:31','2011-03-16 00:28:31','',262,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Sibiu-Hotel-Roberts-3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(269,1,'2011-03-16 02:28:34','2011-03-16 00:28:34','','Sibiu Hotel Roberts Sibiu 4','','inherit','open','open','','sibiu-hotel-roberts-sibiu-4','','','2011-03-16 02:28:34','2011-03-16 00:28:34','',262,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Sibiu-Hotel-Roberts-Sibiu-4.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(270,1,'2011-03-16 02:28:37','2011-03-16 00:28:37','','Sibiu muzeu rasinari 5','','inherit','open','open','','sibiu-muzeu-rasinari-5','','','2011-03-16 02:28:37','2011-03-16 00:28:37','',262,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Sibiu-muzeu-rasinari-5.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(271,1,'2011-03-16 02:28:41','2011-03-16 00:28:41','','Sibiu pastravarie albota 6','','inherit','open','open','','sibiu-pastravarie-albota-6','','','2011-03-16 02:28:41','2011-03-16 00:28:41','',262,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Sibiu-pastravarie-albota-6.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(272,1,'2011-03-16 02:29:23','2011-03-16 00:29:23','','Redescopera1','','inherit','open','open','','redescopera1','','','2011-03-16 02:29:23','2011-03-16 00:29:23','',262,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Redescopera1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(273,1,'2011-03-16 02:29:31','2011-03-16 00:29:31','','Redescopera2','','inherit','open','open','','redescopera2','','','2011-03-16 02:29:31','2011-03-16 00:29:31','',262,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Redescopera2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(274,1,'2011-03-16 02:29:41','2011-03-16 00:29:41','','Redescopera3','','inherit','open','open','','redescopera3','','','2011-03-16 02:29:41','2011-03-16 00:29:41','',262,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Redescopera3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(275,1,'2011-03-16 02:29:51','2011-03-16 00:29:51','','Redescopera4','','inherit','open','open','','redescopera4','','','2011-03-16 02:29:51','2011-03-16 00:29:51','',262,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Redescopera4.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(276,1,'2011-03-16 02:27:35','2011-03-16 00:27:35','Wellness, Spa şi alte delicatese pentru sănătate (1)\r\nRomânii nu mai ştiu aproape nimic despre ce se întâmplă în staţiunile balneare şi de... tratament. Singura percepţie este că majoritatea au fost jefuite şi distruse de privatizări făcute fără cap, prin procese de proprietate şi revendicări, de interese locale, mai bine zis de dezinterese locale. Dar asta e o jumătate de realitate.\r\n\r\nAşa a decăzut celui mai important segment al turismului românesc. Balnearul e important, pentru că are resurse naturale inepuizabile, afirmă specialiştii. Important, pentru că funcţionează pe tot parcursul anului şi pentru că, odată cu îmbătrânirea populaţiei, clientela creşte în mod natural. Dar turismul de tratament autohton nu este singur pe lume. Avem în Europa competitori mari. Chiar dacă ne credem buricul pământului nu mai contăm de o vreme pentru că ne-am pierdut pieţele internaţionale furnizoare. Numeroase hoteluri au fost pur şi simplu distruse de... investitori nepricepuţi în paralel cu conceptul unitar de staţiune balneară. Nu facem atingere la bazele de tratament.

Catastrofală pentru arhitectura Slănicului a fost decizia amplasării unei săli de sport chiar în centrul economic al staţiunii ca şi libertatea de a folosi ce culori vor... muşchii patronilor, la zugrăvirea unor unităţi de cazare. Aşa-zisul complex Pufu, bate recordul la... galben.\r\n\r\nBALVANYOS: O investiţie superbă, dar dezechilibrată\r\n\r\nAm fost curioşi să vedem cum arată noua investiţie făcută de actualii proprietari ai Grand Hotel Balvanyos. Jos pălăria. 4 stele curate. 112 camere. Finisaje foarte bune, spaţii luminoase, impecabil organizate, restaurant pus în valoare de suporturile decorative. Există însă un paradox. „Seamănă mai mult cu un spital, un sanatoriu decât cu un hotel. A dispărut însă baza de tratament!” – a rezumat un travel agent cele inspectate.\r\nNici despre turismul de conferinţe nu prea poate fi vorba, sala de evenimente fiind destul de modestă. În plus ea este amenajată într-o cădire din afara hotelului. Rămâne de văzut unde şi cum va fi revalorificată partea de turism balnear. Aerul şi peisajul sunt extraordinare, ideale pentru turism activ, dar numai atât nu ajunge pentru a petrece aici un sejur măcar de o săptănână.\r\n\r\nBĂILE TUŞNAD: Mişcarea e sufletul sănătăţii\r\n\r\nDupă mai mulţi ani de abandon la Tuşnad se simte bătaia peştelui, adică a investiţiilor. „Perla Transilvaniei” mai are până să-şi recapete strălucirea. Locul e încă „fracturat” de spaţii şi clădiri degradate dar sunt şanse ca principala zonă de promenadă să fie refăcută de către primărie. În partea de tratament hotelul Ciucaş îşi caută o nouă identitate şi clientelă, cu cele 3 stele. Este în curs de dezvoltare a unor de săli de conferinţe, pe care ni le-a prezentat Ileana Colcer, directorul hotelului. Şi complexul Tuşnad, care merge pe programe de tip antistress „Departe de lumea dezlănţuită”, antiobezitate „Adio kilogramelor în plus”, sau de repunere în formă prin „Terapie pentru trup şi suflet” arată că lucrurile s-au mişcat destul de bine în zona de întreţinere. Există piscină cu apă minerală, duş subacval, saună, fitnes precum şi sală de forţă. Dacă nu vreţi să trageţi la fiare, mergeţi la schi, pe o pârtie cochetă, ideală pentru începători şi pentru copii – ne informează Kalamar Andor, preşedintele Asociaţiei de Turism Băile Tuşnad. E amplasată lângă hotelul Fortuna de 3 stele, promovat ca bio-hotel. Dacă sunteţi curioşi, că aşa-i stă bine călătorului, merită să descoperiţi această oază plină de verdeaţă şi căldură. În numărul viitor ne vom întâlni cu alte 5 staţiuni.\r\n\r\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nSIBIU: cu forţă şi determinare, înainte!\r\nVă gândiţi probabil că Sibiul nu prea mai are ce inventa în turism. Regiunea e deja iubită de turiştii germani, oraşul a fost Capitală a culturii europene... În reportajul de faţă veţi citi despre noutăţile din zonă, despre acea realitate care ne contrazice în permanenţă, şi ne arată că lucrurile se schimbă, cu pasiune şi răbdare, în bine.\r\n\r\nFOTO SIBIU | FILME SIBIU\r\nSă te tot duci cu... pluta\r\nLeit-motivul „nu s-a făcut nimic” nu este aplicabil în Sibiu, căci nu este invocat. Sub aspectul ofertei de cazare noutăţile sunt evidente. Hotelul Roberts surprinde prin eleganţă şi bun simţ. Propietarii, ea româncă, el american, fac ceea ce ştiu: oferă servicii hoteliere de calitate şi mai ales îşi iubesc oraşul şi ţara. Ianina e o ardeleancă domoală, iar Sean e un newyorkez get-beget. Au ales România pentru a-şi creşte copii „într-un mediu sănătos, cu aer curat şi mâncare bună”- părerea lui sinceră.\r\n\r\nVizitarea Academiei şi Bisericii Evanghelice din Sibiu oferă o surpriză de anvergură: Muzeul Landlerilor şi povestea lor. Aici aflăm că zicala „venit cu pluta pe Dunăre” are un dureros fundament istoric şi exprimă tragedia unei populaţii strămutate din ţara natală, Austria, pe atunci în imperiul Austro-Ungar, din motive ce ţineau de libertatea religioasă, la marginea de est a imperiului, în zona Sibiului. Alungarea landlerilor din imperiu s-a făcut cu ... plutele pe Dunăre.\r\n\r\nStiaţi că Muzeul Naţional Brukental, fanionul cultural al oraşului este printre primele muzee private din Europa secolului al XVIII-lea şi că în anul 2010 a primit, din partea Uniunii Europene, ca o recunoaştere a valorii sale, premiul Europa Nostra?\r\n\r\nTrecut istoric şi... termal\r\n\r\nNu trebuie uitat faptul că prin muzeele sale Sibiul oferă o imagine bine conturată a multiculturalităţii zonei în toate epocile istorice. În acest context se înscrie şi vizitarea Muzeului Municipal din Mediaş, posesor al unei impresionante colecţii de costume şi vestimentaţii specifice locului.\r\n\r\nOraşul s-a dezvoltat în jurul cetăţii, inima sa istorică, iar acum bate în ritmurile prezentului: lanţul hotelier Binder Bubi -modern şi rafinat, Hotelul Traube un hotel boutique a cărui atmosferă de început de secol XX, cu mobilier autentic te cucereşte pe loc.\r\nComplexul balnear de la Ocna Sibiului, o staţiune mai veche decât amintirile noastre, atestată documentar pe la 1263, este o altă surpriză. Efortul depus de Corina – Simona Drăcea şi soţul ei stabilit aici din Austria, s-a materializat prin restaurarea cu succes a bazei hoteliere, respectîndu-se stilul original, cu ajutorul unor specialişti ungari. În prezent se termină şi lucrările de modernizare a bazei de tratament. Stiaţi că şi aici există piscine cu apă termală şi că funcţionează non stop? Fuga la băi!\r\n\r\nÎn ceea ce priveşte restauraţia, nu vă faceţi probleme! Există o competiţie a gustului şi fiecare pensiune oferă ceva deosebit, căci în zonă s-a păstrat specificul local, nu doar în construcţii, ci şi la mâncare. Răspîndite în Sălişte, Gura Râului, Răşinari, Albota, pensiunile surprind prin programele şi surprizele oferite turiştilor, astfel încât au ajuns locaţii repetitive.\r\n\r\nLocaţii pentru „trai pe vătrai”\r\nCum să nu revii la pensiunea Rudi & Ella propietatea unei familii deosebite... el olandez, ea româncă şi doi copii minunaţi. Aceeaşi referire a lui Groot Koerkamp cu privire la alegerea sa: calmul şi frumuseţea zonei, oamenii, siguranţa creşterii copiilor şi evident, mâncarea românească. Deşi nouă, se revine şi la pensiunea La Taifas (nici o legătură cu localul din Bucureşti) căci a devenit locul ce-i cheamă pe pasionaţii de caricatură. Propietarii au părăsit Bucureştiul cu inima uşoară. Mădălina Apostol spune că şi-au regăsit viaţa şi bucuria de a trăi.\r\n\r\nCă vorbim de mâncare: prăjituri de casă ca în zona Sibiului, mai rar! Femeile care le prepară, fie că se numesc tanti Maria, Ileana sau Maricica, pot oferi lecţii celor mai exigenţi cofetari şi patiseri. Nu mă credeţi? Opriţi-vă la pensiunea Sânziana şi gazdele vă vor copleşi cu atenţia lor. Sentimentul dominant este că eşti acasă. Dacă tot nu v-am convins, cereti găzduire la Pensiunea Domnescu. Expresia „trai pe vătrai” descrie ambientul, spune Maria Domnescu. Ajută să ştiţi că cel care prepară mâncarea este un reputat chef, Costel Domnescu. El a dat strălucire bucătăriei de la Athenee Palace dar şi unor localuri din Germania. Sătul de fiţele hotelurilor de lanţ s-a retras la vatra sa cu tot arsenalul profesional. Avantaj net pentru turişti.\r\n\r\nNu vă agitaţi! Ştiu că orăşeni fiind nu prea le aveţi cu viaţa la ţară. Există alternative. Păstrăvăria Albota este una din ele. Amplasată la poalele Arăpaşului se integrează perfect în peisaj.Tot ceea ce serviţi aici, de la afinată la păstrăv şi lapte proaspăt muls este obţinut din producţia proprie. Datorită calităţii serviciilor există o clientelă fidelă iar Martin Mueller, patronul german, continuă să planifice noi investiţii. Da, în mod categoric îi place în România!\r\n\r\nCrochiu de călătorie\r\n\r\nTot mai ezitaţi? Schimbaţi direcţia spre staţiunea Păltiniş. Popas obligatoriu la Curmătura Stezii, un loc îmblînzit pentru seri romantice în inima naturii. Dacă insistaţi, atunci Păltinişul vă aşteaptă cu peisajul şi hoteluri larg deschise. Iar la Casa Turiştilor veţi întâlni un manager şcolit în Ungaria, Csaba Gyarmati, îndrăgostit de zonă şi dornic să aducă în staţiune cât mai mulţi turişti. Să nu uităm că Paltinişul este prima staţiune turistică a ţării, atestată ca atare în 1894. În plus este staţiunea românească aflată la cea mai mare altitudine – 1442 metri. În mod cert aerul inspirat va fi la fel de pur precum cel respirat de Constantin Noica, filosoful emblematic al Şcolii de la Păltiniş.\r\n\r\nCeea ce v-am arătat în acest reportaj reprezintă doar un crochiu de călătorie, căci zona Sibiului este un sac turistic fără fund. Documentarea a fost prilejuită de un eveniment turistico-promoţional puţin remarcat de presă. Lansarea revistei-catalog Force Tourism, ediţia dedicată judeţului Sibiu. Redacţia revistei are o bogată experienţă, cele peste 24 de ediţii anterioare fiind mărturia unui profesionalism dedicat şi onest. Până aici nimic deosebit, deosebit a fost efortul, parteneriatul privat, realizat cu FPTR, de a face o documentare concentrată asupra ofertei turistice a zonei. Deci ceea ce nu fac ministerul de resort sau ANAT pentru promovarea ofertelor interne face, face după o muncă grea dar dedicată, un editor privat de presă turism.\r\n\r\nEfortul organizatoric depus de Force Turism şi FPTR, singura organizaţie profesională care a pus umărul în proiect, a determinat autorităţile locale să se implice şi să dea consistenţă evenimentului. Ne-au fost alături primarii localităţilor vizitate, Consiliul Judeţean Sibiu, Asociaţia Judeţeană de Turism Sibiu şi opitalierii proprietari ai hotelurilor şi pensiunilor amintite.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU','Redescopera Romania','','inherit','open','open','','262-revision-3','','','2011-03-16 02:27:35','2011-03-16 00:27:35','',262,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/03/16/262-revision-3/',0,'revision','',0),(277,1,'2011-03-16 12:24:53','2011-03-16 10:24:53','Catacuzino goes for 5 \r\nThe Cantacuzino Castle (known as Zamora Estate) in Buşteni (Prahova Valley) is under restoration.

Poate nu aţi auzit de el, dar asta este problema dumneavoastră. E un orăşel de buzunar, de lux, al cărui locuitori spun cu mult umor că celebrul Golden Gate, care-i leagă de San Francisco, a fost construit special pentru ca Sausalito să poate fi vizitat.\n\n \n\nEste un mic tezaur urban, istoric şi arhitectural. Sausalito a fost fondat în urmă cu aproape două sute de ani. Localnicii contemporani nu scapă ocazia să se mândrească cu Princess Street, principala „marcă” turistică. Bulevardul datează din 1860, şi reuneşte numeroase clădiri coloniale ori moderne, conservate şi impecabil întreţinute. Parcă sunt bibelouri pe care le şterge de praf în fiecare zi o mână foarte pricepută. Mâna ar fi... primăria, care-şi ştie rolul foarte bine, pentru că dacă arăţi bine, turiştii te caută şi te iubesc. Adică îşi cheltuiesc banii pentru a consuma poveştile tale, mai vechi sau mai noi. Magazine cochete „Did and Dad”, galerii de artă sau celebra cofetărie „Lappert’s Ice Cream”, care oferă gratuit îngheţată tuturor celor care poartă uniformă militară, parcuri ce par desenate cu pensule de iarbă, statui cu elefanţi, mult soare şi oameni politicoşi.\n\nCase de 1 milion de dolari\n\nRestaurantele şi hotelurile se întrec în oferte. Nu poţi ramâne indiferent când ajungi la Gaylor’s sau la Poggio, aflat în incinta hotelului Madrona. Localul e vestit şi nu întâmplător gastronomia italienească pe care o promovează l-a propulsat în “Top 100 Bay Area Restaurants”. La Sausalito trebuie să vizitaţi neapărat “Marinaship”, o zonă rezidenţială faimoasă prin pitorescul ei. Casele se află pe docuri plutitoare. De prisos să vă spunem, o facem totuşi, că preţul unei locuinţe “rustice” în acest loc poate atinge şi milionul de dolari. Cât despre statuile cu elefanţi, ne-a lămurit rapid cum stau lucrurile pe parcursul unei discuţii cu doamna Carol Ann, reprezentanta oamenilor de afaceri din localitate. Elefantul încoronat este chiar emblema Camerei de Comerţ şi Industrie din Sausalito.\n\nPortrete din Valhalla\n\nUn lucru binevenit este o cafea băută la Northpoint, un local mic ce impune printr-o atmosferă de familie şi multă căldură. Sau pur şi simplu poţi să te aşezi pe o bancă în grădină şi să admiri apele golfului cu un ziar în mână, ori să-ţi scrii liniştit reportajul sau cartea pe un laptop. Şi asta să nu miră pe nimeni. Cum de asemenea nu poţi pleca din acest loc fără a te opri la Gaylord India Restaurant, găzduit de o clădire istorică denumită “Valhalla”. Azi are valoare de patrimoniu, fiind clasificată ca monument istoric. O parte din istorie e plină de… discreţie. În secolul trecut casa a adăpostit un celebru local de şantan, unde vizitatorii degustau din… plăcerile trupului. Ca o pată de culoare, pe unul din pereţii restaurantului se află pus la loc de cinste portretul “matroanei”, care veghează şi azi cu exigenţă, dar la… standardele culinare indiene.\n\nCe gust are succesul lui Kripalani\n\nPanorama oferită în faţa ferestrelor localului ne duce privirile spre golf, oraşul San Francisco dar şi spre Angel Island, aflată în apropiere. Gaylord este sinonim cu autenticitate, calitate şi inovaţie culinară. Are specific indian. Primul restaurant Gaylord din Statele Unite s-a deschis la… San Francisco în 1976 pe celebra Ghirardelli Square. A făcut istorie promovând în rândul clienţilor săi bucătăria şi specificul indial, în special Tandori. Gaylord a impus un standard ridicat, greu de egalat de alte restaurante cu acelaşi specific. Oraşe ca Las Vegas, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, Sacramento ori Londra au în oferta culinară meniuri celebre ale bucătarilor de la Gaylord. În viitor proprietarii se vor extinde în întreaga Americă şi Canada. Filosofia care stă la baza succesului ne este rezumată de către Kishore Kripalani, preşedintele şi fondatorul Gaylord India Restaurants în SUA: “Dacă vrei să te reţină memoria timpului trebuie să faci calitate. Să promovezi standarde exclusive aşa cum au făcut cu primul lor restaurant, deschis în 1946 la New Dehli, Iqbal Ghai şi Peshori Lal Lamba doi întreprinzători curajoşi şi vizionari. De atunci a început promovarea bucătăriei nord-indiene, tandori şi mughlay, influenţată de stilul împăraţilor moghuli, care au dominat peste 200 de ani destinele Indiei.

Drum bun.\n\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU \n\n____________________________\nDACA E PRIMĂVARĂ E ... NEW YORK\n\nMetropola americană a primit în 2010 să aibă aproape 49 milioane vizitatori! New York nu se mulţumeşte însă cu atât. În lunile de primăvară, pentru a impulsiona mişcarea turistică, specialiştii au lansat o nouă campanie de promovare. Elementele forte sunt: organizarea în premieră a săptămânii Broadway, programele NYC Restaurant Week şi Get More NYC.\nÎn cadrul săptămânii în Broadway se pot viziona 18 spectacole la ofertă specială: două persoane pe un bilet. NYC Restaurant Week reuneşte peste 300 de locaţii în care clienţii se bucură de meniuri cu preţuri fixe: 24 de dolari pentru meniu cu două feluri sau 35 de dolari pentru trei feluri, oferta fiind valabilă în zilele lucrătoare ale săptămânii. Campania de promovare e susţinută şi American Airlines cu tarife reduse, dar şi de către zeci de hoteluri care oferă o a treia noapte de cazare gratuită după achitarea a două nopţi consecutive.\nŢinta noii campanii este atingerea cifrei de 50 milioane vizitatori pe an, până în 2012! Publicitatea programelor este asigurată de personalităţi precum actorul Harvey Fierstein ori maestrul în arta culinară David Burke. Alţi parteneri ai campaniei sunt American Express, AT&T, Travelocity, Nickelodeon, Time Out New York ori Renaissance New York Hotel din Times Square.\n\n____________________\n\nBUDAPESTA: INDUSTRIA OSPITALITĂŢII SE REGRUPEAZĂ\n\nO tranzacţie turistică în valoare de 180 de milioane de euro atrage agenţia asupra concentrării resurselor turistice din industria de profil din ţara vecină. Fuziunea unei părţi a diviziei turistice a companiei de dezvoltare imobiliară maghiară SCD Group cu al doilea cel mai mare lanţ hotelier din Ungaria, Hunguest Hotels, a condus la formarea celui mai mare grup naţional din industria ospitalităţi - a anunţat Gellert Jaszai, acţionarul majoritar şi preşedintele SCD Group. Noua companie se numeşte Magyar Turisztikai (MTH), şi va mai controla Balatontourist, cel mai mare furnizor de servicii turistice din zona Lacului Balaton, Aeroportul Fly Balaton, dar şi portofoliul imobiliar din regiune al SCD. Hunguest Hotels deţine în prezent 18 hoteluri în Ungaria şi 3 în alte ţări. În total acestea au înregistrat anual peste 1,5 milioane de nopti de cazare şi aproape 400.000 de vizitatori.\n\nJaszai a achiziţionat 33,3% din Hunguest Hotels de la compania Arago Holding printr-o tranzacţie de schimb de acţiuni. Noul holding poate avea ca opţiune sporirea participaţiei în cadrul Hunguest până la 99,6%.\n___________________________\nUN AMERICAN PROVOACĂ TURIŞTII INACTIVI\n\nOraşul Munchen s-a săturat de turişti plictisiţi şi inactivi. O companie fondată acum mai bine de 15 ani, de către un american mutat în Germania, oferă tururi ale capitalei pe... bicicletă. Turiştii primesc vehiculul, hărţi, şi sunt însoţiţi de un ghid local. Mişcarea în aer liber dar şi posibilitatea de a pătrunde în zone mai greu accesibile cu maşina asigură deja succesul acestor programe. Mike’s Bike Tours a achiziţionat de curând şi vehicule cu două roţi tip Segway (inventate în 2001) care facilitează accesul în orice colţ al oraşului, inclusiv pe străzile mai înguste. În Europa tururi organizate cu bicicleta se mai fac la Amsterdam, iar cu Segway la Viena, Paris, Berlin şi Budapesta.\n\nMARA ANTON','SAUSALITO – BIJUTERIA GOLFULUI, MAPAMOND NR.84 (MARTIE 2011) ','','inherit','open','open','','281-revision','','','2011-05-24 11:33:50','2011-05-24 09:33:50','',281,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/05/24/281-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(283,1,'2011-05-24 11:32:03','2011-05-24 09:32:03','RESTAURATIE NR.84 (MARTIE 2011)\r\n\r\nSELF: PRIMUL FESTIVAL GASTRONOMIC AL ANGHINAREI\r\n\r\nElegantul restaurant Self din Bucureşti a găzduit primul Festival gastronomic al anghinarei (carciofo) organizat în România.

NYC Restaurant Week reuneşte peste 300 de locaţii în care clienţii se bucură de meniuri cu preţuri fixe: 24 de dolari pentru meniu cu două feluri sau 35 de dolari pentru trei feluri, oferta fiind valabilă în zilele lucrătoare ale săptămânii. Campania de promovare e susţinută şi American Airlines cu tarife reduse, dar şi de către zeci de hoteluri care oferă o a treia noapte de cazare gratuită după achitarea a două nopţi consecutive.\r\nŢinta noii campanii este atingerea cifrei de 50 milioane vizitatori pe an, până în 2012! Publicitatea programelor este asigurată de personalităţi precum actorul Harvey Fierstein ori maestrul în arta culinară David Burke. Alţi parteneri ai campaniei sunt American Express, AT&T, Travelocity, Nickelodeon, Time Out New York ori Renaissance New York Hotel din Times Square.\r\n\r\n____________________\r\n\r\nBUDAPESTA: INDUSTRIA OSPITALITĂŢII SE REGRUPEAZĂ\r\n\r\nO tranzacţie turistică în valoare de 180 de milioane de euro atrage agenţia asupra concentrării resurselor turistice din industria de profil din ţara vecină. Fuziunea unei părţi a diviziei turistice a companiei de dezvoltare imobiliară maghiară SCD Group cu al doilea cel mai mare lanţ hotelier din Ungaria, Hunguest Hotels, a condus la formarea celui mai mare grup naţional din industria ospitalităţi - a anunţat Gellert Jaszai, acţionarul majoritar şi preşedintele SCD Group. Noua companie se numeşte Magyar Turisztikai (MTH), şi va mai controla Balatontourist, cel mai mare furnizor de servicii turistice din zona Lacului Balaton, Aeroportul Fly Balaton, dar şi portofoliul imobiliar din regiune al SCD. Hunguest Hotels deţine în prezent 18 hoteluri în Ungaria şi 3 în alte ţări. În total acestea au înregistrat anual peste 1,5 milioane de nopti de cazare şi aproape 400.000 de vizitatori.\r\n\r\nJaszai a achiziţionat 33,3% din Hunguest Hotels de la compania Arago Holding printr-o tranzacţie de schimb de acţiuni. Noul holding poate avea ca opţiune sporirea participaţiei în cadrul Hunguest până la 99,6%.\r\n___________________________\r\nUN AMERICAN PROVOACĂ TURIŞTII INACTIVI\r\n\r\nOraşul Munchen s-a săturat de turişti plictisiţi şi inactivi. O companie fondată acum mai bine de 15 ani, de către un american mutat în Germania, oferă tururi ale capitalei pe... bicicletă. Turiştii primesc vehiculul, hărţi, şi sunt însoţiţi de un ghid local. Mişcarea în aer liber dar şi posibilitatea de a pătrunde în zone mai greu accesibile cu maşina asigură deja succesul acestor programe. Mike’s Bike Tours a achiziţionat de curând şi vehicule cu două roţi tip Segway (inventate în 2001) care facilitează accesul în orice colţ al oraşului, inclusiv pe străzile mai înguste. În Europa tururi organizate cu bicicleta se mai fac la Amsterdam, iar cu Segway la Viena, Paris, Berlin şi Budapesta.\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON','SAUSALITO – BIJUTERIA GOLFULUI, MAPAMOND NR.84 (MARTIE 2011) ','','inherit','open','open','','281-revision-2','','','2011-05-24 11:33:54','2011-05-24 09:33:54','',281,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/05/24/281-revision-2/',0,'revision','',0),(303,1,'2011-06-20 16:21:14','2011-06-20 14:21:14','![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Sorin-Dencescu.jpg\" "\\"Sorin-Dencescu\\"")
Interlocutorul meu este un tip aparte. Am sentimentul că în fiecare zi îşi propune să smulgă timpului cât mai mult. Din acest punct de vedere seamănă cu un neamţ. Fără îndoială că mentalitatea lui a fost „iradiată” de Braşov. Vorbeşte concentrat, sintetic. Sorin Dencescu pare, din această cauză un tip incomod. Dar nu este aşa. Este sociabil atunci când are cu cine. În rest, business-ul îi domină toată ziua cu aceeaşi intensitate. Bref, s-a născut la 6 noiembrie 1960. Kron-Tour este o afacere de familie ce a debutat în 1990. Soţia este administratorul firmei, Răzvan, unul dintre copii, are masterat în turism şi este “Postgraduate diploma în hospitality management”, la Lausanne si este director în firmă iar Vanessa, sora sa, studiază tot domeniul turismului, la Universitatea din Viena.\r\n\r\n- În ultimii ani Kron-Tour, care a aniversat 21 de ani de existenţă, şi-a reorganizat activităţile pe etape. Începutul a fost făcut ca agenţie clasică, cu vânzări la stradă. Ulterior, după o dură evaluare şi selecţie aţi devenit LCCI. Care au fost etapele determinante ale transformărilor ? \r\n\r\n- Puţini îşi mai aduc aminte azi că firma Kron-Tour a fost este prima agenţie de turism cu capital integral privat din Braşov. În 1990 a devenit Membru al Asociaţiei Naţionale a Agenţiilor de Turism din România (ANAT) iar mai târziu a fost acreditată IATA şi ISO 9001:2000 pentru segmentul Turism. Aş vrea să reamintesc alte două etape importante: din aprilie 2002, Kron-Tour a devenit membru al Lufthansa City Center International, cel mai mare lanţ de agenţii de turism din lume în sistem de franciză. El operează cu peste 600 de agenţii amplasate în 80 de ţări. Apoi 2008 a avut o semnificaţie aparte, deoarece Kron-Tour Lufthansa City Center a devenit Partener de Travel al Casei Majestăţii Sale Regelui Mihai I. Compania noastră s-a impus în ultimii 15 ani ca un lider al pieţei de servicii turistice şi totodată partener de încredere al celor mai importanţi clienţi corporate din zonă. În momentul de faţă activitatea se desfăşoară în 3 locaţii, respectiv Head Office/Travel Shop (vânzări directe), Corporate Office (vânzări către clienţii corporate/firme) şi Kron-Tour Expo Fairs & Exhibitions (evenimente). De asemenea exista divizia Travel. Online (comerţ electronic), care administreaza site-ul de vânzări bilete avion rezerva.ro.\r\n\r\n- Ce modificări a cunoscut piaţa braşoveană a consumatorilor de turism? Care sunt cele mai solicitate pachete şi produse turistice? \r\n\r\n- Este greu de dat un răspuns. Au fost momente de stagnare şi momente de reorientare pe piaţa locală. Acum avem în faţă un moment de asemenea particular afectat de criza economică dar stimulat cei care au capacitatea de a crea... turism. Se simte o “boare” de revigorare a activităţii turistice care la nivel zonal se manifestă printr-un număr mai mare de turişti iar la nivel de agenţie de turism printr-un volum mai mare de încasări faţă de ultimii doi ani. În opinia mea acesta e efectul preţurilor “de excepţie” pe care criza le-a adus (iata şi partea bună a crizei !!), produsul turistic fiind regândit din temeli pentru a fi cât mai vandabil. Este foarte bine că există interes la nivel naţional pentru promovarea obiectivelor turistice interne, însă este prematur să punem creşterea firavă a numărului de turişti pe baza acestei campanii. Efectele consistente, sunt convins, nu vor întârzia să apară! Programele sociale, în schimb, campaniile “early booking” (“înscrieri timpurii”), iniţiate de ANAT şi partenerii săi pot fi considerate catalizatori ai turismului intern.\r\n\r\n- Judeţul Braşov este una dintre cele mai importante zone turistice ale României. Anul trecut nu s-a mai organizat Târgul de turism. Cum explicaţi acest lucru şi din perspectiva de preşedinte regional al Asociaţiei Naţionale a Agenţiilor de Turism (ANAT) ?\r\n\r\n- Vă mărturisesc, cu o strângere de inimă, m-a durut că nu am putut organiza târgul anul trecut. Nu am reuşit să realizăm bugetul minimal propus pentru a nu face rabat de la calitate. Mă refer la un program de marketing corespunzător, la manifestările din zilele de târg etc. Adevărul este că un târg de turism organizat la Braşov va genera în timp efecte nebănuite. Parteneriatele ANAT şi longevitatea mea în board-ul patronatului, unde în două mandate am fost şi primvicepreşedinte, au contribuit la crearea unor asocieri oneste, solide, cu administraţia locală. De altfel Primăria Braşov este co-organizator al târgului. În ceea ce priveşte mişcarea asociativă mă mândresc cu cel puţin două iniţiative: Corporate Identitiy ANAT, respectiv Travel Industry Card, singurul card dedicat celor din industria turismului şi care oferă multiple facilităţi posesorilor.\r\n\r\n- E de aşteptat ca a patra ediţie a Transylvania Tourism Fair să promoveze mai multe noutăţi. Cât de atractive sunt ele? \r\n\r\n- Noutatea absolută! Evenimentul va fi găzduit de o locaţie de excepţie, respectiv Braşov Business Park (BBP). Complexul deţine o suprafaţă de expunere de peste 5.000 metri pătraţi (interior +exterior) şi de o parcare (supra şi subterană) de 500 de locuri, atuuri pe care nici o altă structură de evenimente din oraş nu le oferă. Proiectul clădirii a fost premiat la Barcelona în 2009. La momentul la care vom inaugura această locaţie va fi operaţional un restaurant cu o capacitate de 140 locuri, iar după 1 iunie se va adăuga şi o cafenea. Cele 6 săli de conferinţe de la mezanin vor găzdui în perioada evenimentelor prezentări/mese rotunde specifice. Proiectul BBP apartine Ravensdale Investments SRL, membră a Vlerick Group deţinut de o familie belgiană. La nivel mondial,Vlerick Group desfăşoară o gamă variată de activităţi în domeniile textil, financiar, imobiliar. La parterul clădirii, Kron-Tour Lufthansa City Center, în calitate de Contractant Exclusiv pentru toate evenimentele care se vor organiza în această locaţie, este prezent cu un nou birou. Acesta va oferi toate serviciile specifice unei agenţii de turism, iar prin divizia Kron-Tour Fairs & Exhibitions, suport permanent pentru toate evenimentele. Participarea la târgul de turism va fi “la vârf”. Firmele prezente vor lansa oferte “last minut” dar şi “oferte speciale”, ce vor fi valabile doar pe perioada evenimentului. Din acest an, TTF devine internaţional , având în vedere societăţile înscrise până în momentul de faţă. Drumul de la târg “regional”, la târg \"internaţional \", a fost parcurs rapid (suntem doar la ediţia a-IV-a !). Le recomand braşovenilor, şi nu numai lor, să nu scape Târgul de turism din 13-15 mai de la Braşov Business Park. Aici vor putea da valoare cu adevărat timpului liber pe care-l au la dispoziţie!\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','INTERVIU NR.85 (APRILIE 2011) SORIN DENCESCU: „Turismul e o investiţie care dă valoare timpului liber !”','','publish','open','open','','interviu-nr-85-aprilie-2011-sorin-dencescu-%e2%80%9eturismul-e-o-investitie-care-da-valoare-timpului-liber-%e2%80%9d','','','2011-06-20 16:29:31','2011-06-20 14:29:31','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=303',0,'post','',0),(288,1,'2011-05-24 11:46:40','2011-05-24 09:46:40',' ','','','publish','open','closed','','288','','','2017-04-02 22:25:07','2017-04-02 20:25:07','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=288',60,'nav_menu_item','',0),(289,1,'2011-05-24 11:49:44','2011-05-24 09:49:44','TRAVEL NR.84 (MARTIE 2011)\r\n2010 – ANUL INVESTIŢIILOR ÎN ÎNCREDERE\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"../../foto/84/poze/Travel.jpg\")
Demersurile din ultimul an ale Asociaţiei Naţionale a Agenţiilor de Turism (ANAT) pentru consolidarea imaginii agenţiilor de turism au început să genereze efectele aşteptate. Acestea se “conjugă” şi cu ţepele trase de către agenţii de turism fantomă, care au încasat banii românilor amatori de preţuri chilipir şi au dispărut rapid de pe piaţă, sau chiar de către unele agenţii acreditate ANAT. O mare parte din consumatorii de vacanţe nu mai sunt dispuşi să se lase “păcăliţi”. Ca urmare au perceput pozitiv mesajele transmise de către organizaţia amintită dar şi adevarata valoare a consultanţei oferită de agenţiile de turism, mai ales în această perioadă de criză economică. Toate acestea au condus, conform estimărilor, la creşterea cu circa 10% a încrederii în agenţiile de turism în România – spune Corina Martin, liderul ANAT.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nSetea de consultanţă\r\n\r\nCreşterea s-a regăsit în special în turismul intern, mai mulţi români alegând agenţiile pentru turismul montan, rural sau de litoral. În plus, din ce în ce mai multe agenţii au creat site-uri profesioniste, prin care se pot face rezervări şi la care apelează din ce în ce mai mulţi turişti. Sistemele de rezervări ale agenţiilor de turism oferă avantajul încrederii, al unei persoane de contact şi faptul că turistul poate să solicite şi consultanţă înainte de a efectua rezervarea. Pe de altă parte, agenţiile de turism sunt cele care promovează programe de early booking, pe cele ce include diferite promoţii ori discounturi, şi tot ele organizează chartere cu avionul sau autocarul pe diverse destinaţii.\r\n\r\nDragoş Anastasiu, preşedintele Eurolines, spune că „rolul consultanţei va fi decisiv în selectarea unei agenţii de către consumatorii de vacanţe. Sunt lucruri pe care internetul nu le poate explica, chiar dacă oferă informaţii, conexiuni şi trimiteri spre diverse site-uri de vacanţă. Apoi mai este vorba de calitatea consultanţei, profesie modernă pentru care trebuie să ai vocaţie şi aptitudini. E vorba de convingerea clientului că i-ai oferit un produs bun. Dacă va fi mulţumit se va întoarce la agenţia ta. Pentru aceasta este nevoie de multă persuasiune. Tot mai mulţi români descoperă că Eurolines nu mai este doar o firma de transport, ci a devenit cea mai mare reţea de agenţii de turism din România. Anul trecut am investit în traininguri, în dezvoltarea sistemelor IT şi în popularizarea conceptului de “travel hypermarket”. În acest scop am deschis noi agenţii: în Bucureşti (Băneasa Mall – Feeria, Complexul Cora Pantelimon şi în Bulevardul Obregia), Ploieşti şi Oradea (a doua agenţie în acest oraş), respectiv în Sinaia şi Câmpina.

\r\n\r\nFenomenul de reîntoarcere a publicului la serviciile agenţiilor de turism a început în Statele Unite. Un studiu al Forrester Research, relevă faptul că, în 2010, procentul de turişti leisure interesaţi să apeleze la agenţiile de turism în defavoarea site-urilor web a crescut la 28%, comparativ cu 23%, cu doi ani în urmă. Această evoluţie în favoarea agenţiilor de turism este extraordinară, ţinând cont că SUA reprezintă prima ţară care a descoperit internetul, iar turiştii americani practică de foarte mult timp rezervările online. Potrivit aceluiaşi studiu 28% dintre turiştii de leisure din SUA care îşi făceau singuri rezervări online au declarat, că ar fi interesaţi să meargă din nou la o agenţie de turism tradiţională, procentul fiind în creştere cu 5% mai mare în 2010, faţă de 2008. Mai mult, un studiu similar punctează faptul că numărul turiştilor de leisure - care s-au folosit de Web pentru planificarea călătoriei şi rezervări-, a coborât la 46% în 2009, de la 53% în 2007. Unii analişti americani sunt de părere că respectivele constatări reflectă un grad crescut de frustrare faţă de site-urile care în loc să simplifice procesul de travel îl îngreunează. Potrivit unui studiu realizat de Societatea Americană a Agenţilor de Turism (ASTA) privind importanţa agenţiilor de turism, la ora actuală, acestea vând în toată lumea 51% din biletele de avion, 87% din toate croazierele, 81% din circuite şi pachetele turistice, 45% din închirierile de maşini şi 47% din hoteluri.\r\n\r\nUn computer nu face acest lucru\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"../../foto/84/poze/Travel-6.jpg\")

După mai mulţi ani de somnolenţă şi aşteptare investitorii au început să-şi concentreze atenţia spre fostele staţiuni balneare. Hotelurile nu mai activează azi într-o strategie unitară şi asta se resimte puternic în modul de administrare şi operare. Sunt multe situaţii în care administraţia locală continuă să fie ostilă unui parteneriat public-privat, ca şi cum taxele locale ar pica numai din cerul... guvernamental.\r\n\r\nTotuşi, situaţia a început să se schimbe în ultimii 2-3 ani, în anumite zone radical, prin apariţia hotelurilor noi sau refăcute complet şi sub aspectul bazelor de tratament. Cel mai mare investitor în această zonă este pe departe SIF Transilvania. Ele s-au concentrat pe organizarea unor Centre de Wellness şi Spa, care au atras noi clienţi, interesaţi azi de noi concepte active. O altă ţintă clară o reprezintă familiile cu copii pentru care zonele de piscine, aqua land-urile, evenimentele culturale sau excursiile, oferă o altă perspectivă asupra sănătăţii. Cu ce se mai confruntă turismul balnear ? Răspunsul experţilor: lipsă de infrastructură de transport, hotelieră şi de agrement; calificarea forţei de muncă care prezintă semne clare de îmbătrânire; lipsă de promovare la nivel unitar dar şi dezinteresul la nivel local etc.\r\nCum stau lucrurile la faţa locului? Noi răspunsuri aflaţi în al doilea reportaj realizat în cadrul proiectului derulat de compania Accent Travel & Events în parteneriat cu Traveller Magazin.\r\n\r\nVATRA DORNEI- Dacă ar fi şi cazinoul gata \r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"../../foto/84/poze/Redesccopera-Vatra-Dornei.jpg\")
În ultimul an în staţiunea Vatra Dornei numărul locurilor de cazare a crescut cu 20%, la pensiunile de 3 şi 4 stele, potenţialul de primire în staţiune apropiindu-se azi de 2.500 de locuri. Ofertele sunt concentrate pe complexul de 3 stele Bradul – Călimani, administrate de compania Dorna Turism. Cei care vin la odihnă şi tratament beneficiază de serviciile unei baze modernizate – kinetoterapie, duş subacval, jacuzzi, duş scoţian, aerosoli, băi de plante, curenţi diadinamici etc. Inima este şi ea băgată în seamă de diverse proceduri efectuate prin serviciile de electroardiografie, oscilometrie, oscilotensiometrie etc. Starea lucrurilor este foarte bună aici amenajându-se şi un Beautyland, un Centru unde nu-ţi lipsesc nici împachetările cu nămol, nici şedinţele de frumuseţe, la care se adaugă piscina cu apă caldă. Ofertele societăţii hoteliere sunt mult mai complexe. Turismul local se adresează unei categorii active formată din copii şi tineri, care vin aici în tabere sau excursii în diferite perioade ale anului. Iarna se conjugă cu schi-ul, ce se practica pe pârtiile de fond, Dealu Negru şi Schi Parc. În restul anotimpurilor e la putere turismul activ, de la circuite culturale prin atracţiile oraşului - Muzeele cinegetic şi de Etnografie şi Parcul central refăcut în spiritul tradiţional fiind doar trei dintre ele -, până la programele de cicloturism, cu circuite de 85 de kilometri prin comunele şi satele dornene. Nici amatorii de alpinism nu au fost uitaţi. La capitolul cazare stau bine şi hotelurile Maestro, Alpin, Cabana Schiorilor, unde oferta gastronomică face diferenţa memorabilă. Tradiţia nu a ajuns încă un produs de lux. Deci bucuraţi-vă acum. Punctul vulnerabil ar oraşului-staţiune rămâne în continuare Cazinoul, cândva emblema vilegiaturiştilor.

SIF Transilvania, care controlează societatea Băile Felix, administrează aici mai multe hoteluri şi restaurante. Modernizate, refăcute sau reconstruite la standarde superioare complexele Nufărul, Termal şi Internaţional dau speranţe că Băile Felix vor redeveni o destinaţie de buluceală şi pentru turiştii străini. Ar fi şi timpul căci puţine staţiuni din Europa se pot mândri cu o istorie atestată din 1221, ca Termae Varadiensis, iar între 1700-1721, ca Felix Heldres. Celebrele sale izvoare cu proprietăţi terapeutice unice, lacul cu nuferi, acva-landul, îmbogăţesc şi diversifică ofertele turistice. Puteţi fredona melodia cu amorul şi la hotelul Anthimos, de 4 stele, promovat ca pensiune. Unii travel-agenţi îl vând cu succes, el fiind o oază de linişte şi design. El este amplasată la doar un kilometru de Spitalul de Recuperare din Băile Felix – ne precizează Tudor Bugnar, reprezentantul complexului. La momentul documentării noastre era promovat un pachet de 11 zile, cu tratament gratuit, la numai 675 de lei de persoană. Dar locul e bun nu numai pentru amor în dormitor, tratament ci şi pentru business-tourism ori evenimente. Stau la dispoziţia amatorilor 2 săli de conferinţe cu o capacitate maximă de 70 de persoane.\r\n\r\nGEOAGIU BĂI – Întreabă de Germisara\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"../../foto/84/poze/Redescopera-geoagiu-1.jpg\")
Minuni a făcut investitorul SIF Transilvania şi la Geoagiu Băi. Hotelul Germisara, care arată ca în pliantele complexelor de sănătate europene, străluceşte ca un diamant într-o groapă de gunoi. Nu spunem că staţiunea arată astfel, dar aerul de cârpeală şi abandon domină încă peisajul de ansamblu. Proiectanţii au refăcut o parte din atmosfera termelor romane, statuile lui Decebal şi Traian încadrând la exterior intrarea hotelului. Ce puteţi face aici? Multe! De la înotat în ape termale, recuperare subacvatică până la bălăceala totală în piscinele care arată foarte bine, ori la tratamente complexe cu aerosoli (efect salină), electroterapie, magnetoterapie, laserterapie, ultrasunete, aplicaţii cu parafină. Turismul se vinde aici la pachet şi cu pensiune completă şi ăsta-i un lucru bun. Serviciile în restaurant sunt ceva mai slăbuţe. La investiţia făcută e loc şi pentru...”renovarea” forţei de muncă. Merită să trageţi aici.\r\n\r\nOLĂNEŞTI – Asta iese unde nu-i cap\r\n\r\nSe vede treaba că tradiţia a continuat la Olăneşti. N-am mai fost demult aici şi am fost curioşi cum au evoluat lucrurile.

Sigur, nu ne aşteptam să dăm de Hilton ori Intercontinental la Băile Olăneşti, aşa că am inspectat hoteluri de 3 stele, curate, asamblate pentru un anumit tip de turist. „Bitu”, proprietate a unui maestru în arta culinară ce a lucrat chiar la Intercontinental, „Alice” şi „President”, trag spre clientelă... sentimentală şi de business. „Centralul”, care este o „capodoperă” arhitecturală ce merită văzută, e pregătit pentru evenimente, nunţi şi botezuri, iar „Parângul” rămâne devotat clientelei tradiţionale, vârstnici veniţi la tratament şi recuperare. Sentimentul nostru este că dacă vor continua construcţiile amplasate haotic, staţiunea se va sufoca curând. În amalgamul de culori şi arhitectură neoimprovizată, domină înghesuială urbană, lipsa spaţiilor de parcare şi, probabil, că în curând şi a spaţiilor verzi.\r\n\r\nGOVORA – Nu rata Belvedere\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"../../foto/84/poze/Redescopera-Govora-1.jpg\")
\r\n\r\nBăile Govora arată mult mai bine la capitolul impresie artistică. Şi, în mod cert, vor arăta şi mai bine.

După mai mulţi ani de somnolenţă şi aşteptare investitorii au început să-şi concentreze atenţia spre fostele staţiuni balneare. Hotelurile nu mai activează azi într-o strategie unitară şi asta se resimte puternic în modul de administrare şi operare. Sunt multe situaţii în care administraţia locală continuă să fie ostilă unui parteneriat public-privat, ca şi cum taxele locale ar pica numai din cerul... guvernamental.\n\nTotuşi, situaţia a început să se schimbe în ultimii 2-3 ani, în anumite zone radical, prin apariţia hotelurilor noi sau refăcute complet şi sub aspectul bazelor de tratament. Cel mai mare investitor în această zonă este pe departe SIF Transilvania. Ele s-au concentrat pe organizarea unor Centre de Wellness şi Spa, care au atras noi clienţi, interesaţi azi de noi concepte active. O altă ţintă clară o reprezintă familiile cu copii pentru care zonele de piscine, aqua land-urile, evenimentele culturale sau excursiile, oferă o altă perspectivă asupra sănătăţii. Cu ce se mai confruntă turismul balnear ? Răspunsul experţilor: lipsă de infrastructură de transport, hotelieră şi de agrement; calificarea forţei de muncă care prezintă semne clare de îmbătrânire; lipsă de promovare la nivel unitar dar şi dezinteresul la nivel local etc.\nCum stau lucrurile la faţa locului? Noi răspunsuri aflaţi în al doilea reportaj realizat în cadrul proiectului derulat de compania Accent Travel & Events în parteneriat cu Traveller Magazin.\n\nVATRA DORNEI- Dacă ar fi şi cazinoul gata \n\nÎn ultimul an în staţiunea Vatra Dornei numărul locurilor de cazare a crescut cu 20%, la pensiunile de 3 şi 4 stele, potenţialul de primire în staţiune apropiindu-se azi de 2.500 de locuri. Ofertele sunt concentrate pe complexul de 3 stele Bradul – Călimani, administrate de compania Dorna Turism. Cei care vin la odihnă şi tratament beneficiază de serviciile unei baze modernizate – kinetoterapie, duş subacval, jacuzzi, duş scoţian, aerosoli, băi de plante, curenţi diadinamici etc. Inima este şi ea băgată în seamă de diverse proceduri efectuate prin serviciile de electroardiografie, oscilometrie, oscilotensiometrie etc. Starea lucrurilor este foarte bună aici amenajându-se şi un Beautyland, un Centru unde nu-ţi lipsesc nici împachetările cu nămol, nici şedinţele de frumuseţe, la care se adaugă piscina cu apă caldă. Ofertele societăţii hoteliere sunt mult mai complexe. Turismul local se adresează unei categorii active formată din copii şi tineri, care vin aici în tabere sau excursii în diferite perioade ale anului. Iarna se conjugă cu schi-ul, ce se practica pe pârtiile de fond, Dealu Negru şi Schi Parc. În restul anotimpurilor e la putere turismul activ, de la circuite culturale prin atracţiile oraşului - Muzeele cinegetic şi de Etnografie şi Parcul central refăcut în spiritul tradiţional fiind doar trei dintre ele -, până la programele de cicloturism, cu circuite de 85 de kilometri prin comunele şi satele dornene. Nici amatorii de alpinism nu au fost uitaţi. La capitolul cazare stau bine şi hotelurile Maestro, Alpin, Cabana Schiorilor, unde oferta gastronomică face diferenţa memorabilă. Tradiţia nu a ajuns încă un produs de lux. Deci bucuraţi-vă acum. Punctul vulnerabil ar oraşului-staţiune rămâne în continuare Cazinoul, cândva emblema vilegiaturiştilor. Există speranţa că în sfârşit clădirea va fi readusă la strălucirea de odinioară, aflându-se în stadiu avansat de restaurare.\n\nBĂILE FELIX – Amor termal\n\nVă mai aduceţi aminte de melodia „Amor, amor, amor, la tine-n dormitor”.

Principalele atracţii vor fi două montagnes russes, un turn unde vizitatorii vor putea experimenta căderea liberă, un planetarium şi studiouri de simulare spaţială, un parc acvatic, atracţii pentru sezonul cald etc. Parcul va cuprinde şi o sală multifuncţională de spectacole, o zonă de shopping, un hotel luxos, un centru de tip outlet etc. Va fi un veritabil Disneyland, care va atrage circa 0,8 milioane de vizitatori anual”.\r\nCât se poate de frumos şi util. Treaba este că după cum sunt descrise facilităţile pentru distracţii avem de-a face cu un amalgam nefericic, vecin cu kitsch-ul. El mixează tematici din domenii care se află în... coliziune. El s-ar adresa mai mult pieţii interne pentru că, lesne de înţeles francezii, americanii, germanii, spaniolii, nu se vor da în vânt să vină în România pentru ca să viziteze ceea ce au şi acasă.\r\n\r\n![\"Revista](\"../../foto/arhiva/coperta%20nr.%2084%20Martie.jpg\")
Sunt convins că proiectul va fi un succes imobliar. Dar în acelaşi timp va fi şi un eşec anunţat pentru industria turistică de loisir şi divertisment. El va tenta în principal locuitorii Capitalei ori din zonele apropiate în scopul petrecerii sfârşitului de săptămână. Rău e că nu venim cu o marcă individualizată, prin care să atragem străinii spre Bucureşti. Ci cu un copy-paste. Ceva deosebit ar fi un Parc tematic. Iar subiectul cel mai atractiv este, fără îndoială... Dracula. Dacă dăm timpul înapoi vom descoperi că un asemenea parc urma să se deschidă prin 2004. El promova toate atracţiile legate de prinţul romantic şi sângeros, mă rog, depinde ce cărţi ai citit ori ce filme ai văzut! Dracula Park venea cu atracţii de genul Academie de Vampirologie, amfiteatru cu spectacole tematice, hoteluri şi restaurante cu meniuri... sângeroase şi vinuri roşii pe măsură, cinematografe cu pelicule de referinţă cu Dracula, biblioteci, simulatoare, animaţii personalizate, suveniruri, gablonţuri, briz-brizuri, magneţi, haine-marcă care ar fi atras cu siguranţă atenţia străinilor. Pentru că pe ei îi vânăm în principal cu Dracula. O reţetă de succes. Şi turistic şi comercial. E greu de crezut că Bucureştiul va atrage printr-un Parc de distracţii, mai mult decât brandul Dracula, cunoscut şi promovat de mai bine de jumătate de secol în conştiinţa globală a călătoriilor. România nu a cheltuit mai nimic pe... promotorul Dracula, dar a avut talentul prin oamenii politici ai vremii să-şi autosaboteze cel mai interesant proiect tematic pentru distracţie – Dracula Park.

The distinction <Very Clean Hotel> has been given according to the appreciations and the feedback of the tourists that have used this hotel”.\r\nNicu Ţone, manager of ApartHotel Iosefin Residence, says that this confirms the work of a young and dynamic team: “it shows our devotion for the tourists that have visited Timişoara. The prize comes little time after the opening of the multifunctional <Iosefin> Center. This new facility was designed for the business segment.

The Romanian stand attracted the public and the travel specialists „due to the elegance of the design and the visual expressivity. In the same context, the BR TV channel (Bavarian television) presented a generous documentary about the attractiveness of Romanian tourist destinations.” The campaign for promoting the national brand continued at the beginning of March at IT Berlin, one of the most important European travel fairs\r\n........................................................................\r\nPARADOX\r\nMore hotel projects in 2010 \r\nLast year was not a good year for hotel investments. But, according to IBC Focus, the number of projects for lodging facilities was three times higher than in 2009, reaching 905. Out of these projects 464 have a plan, 384 are under construction and only 57 are still in the auction phase. Most of the projects, 23%, regard the central part of Romania, 17% are in north-east, and 13% in each of the south-east and north-west areas. Only 4% of the total number of projects regards the capital city. The majority of the investments announced on this lodging and hosting segment require less than 1 million RON, being small hotels, pensions, hostels and tourist villas\r\n.........................................................................\r\nRomania and Bulgaria make plans\r\nOver 50 tourist sights in Dobrogea (Romania) and Dobrich (Bulgaria) regions will be promoted in a common European project, totalizing 420.000 euro investment. The plan states the creation of five tourist routes that will focus on history and culture, crafts, ecology, gastronomy and event-festivals. Eight experts (four out of each country) will create the products that will be promoted through brochures - said Ion Dănuţ Jugănaru, general director of The Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Navigation and Agriculture of Constanţa.

Known in Italy as carciofo the plant has been used in cooking since antiquity. Its capital city is considered to be the Sicilian Niscemi, where the cultivation of the plant started somewhere around 1850. Govanni Di Martino, mayor of Niscemi believes that “a visit in the region must include, above historical sights, an experience of local gastronomy, quality food and the great wines made near Etna”. Gheorghe Răcaru – development director of Romstrade-Blue Air Group (that administrate through a branch the Self chain of restaurants) said: “Blue Air, company that covers several destinations in Italy, keeps sustaining such events, the gastronomy of the two countries opening great perspectives to the tourism product”.\r\n\r\nThe central point of the evening was the excellent stuffed artichoke, a specialty appreciated alike by the travel agents, diplomats, business people and journalists presents at the event.','ENGLISH VERSION TRAVELLER MAGAZIN NO.84 (MARCH 2011)','','publish','open','open','','english-version-traveller-magazin-no-84-march-2011','','','2011-05-24 13:28:39','2011-05-24 11:28:39','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=301',0,'post','',0),(302,1,'2011-05-24 13:27:59','2011-05-24 11:27:59','','ENGLISH VERSION TRAVELLER MAGAZIN NO.84 (MARCH 2011)','','inherit','open','open','','301-revision','','','2011-05-24 13:27:59','2011-05-24 11:27:59','',301,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/05/24/301-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(304,1,'2011-06-20 16:20:54','2011-06-20 14:20:54','','Sorin-Dencescu','','inherit','open','open','','sorin-dencescu','','','2011-06-20 16:20:54','2011-06-20 14:20:54','',303,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Sorin-Dencescu.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(305,1,'2011-06-20 16:19:49','2011-06-20 14:19:49','Interlocutorul meu este un tip aparte.

Aş vrea să reamintesc alte două etape importante: din aprilie 2002, Kron-Tour a devenit membru al Lufthansa City Center International, cel mai mare lanţ de agenţii de turism din lume în sistem de franciză. El operează cu peste 600 de agenţii amplasate în 80 de ţări. Apoi 2008 a avut o semnificaţie aparte, deoarece Kron-Tour Lufthansa City Center a devenit Partener de Travel al Casei Majestăţii Sale Regelui Mihai I. Compania noastră s-a impus în ultimii 15 ani ca un lider al pieţei de servicii turistice şi totodată partener de încredere al celor mai importanţi clienţi corporate din zonă. În momentul de faţă activitatea se desfăşoară în 3 locaţii, respectiv Head Office/Travel Shop (vânzări directe), Corporate Office (vânzări către clienţii corporate/firme) şi Kron-Tour Expo Fairs & Exhibitions (evenimente). De asemenea exista divizia Travel. Online (comerţ electronic), care administreaza site-ul de vânzări bilete avion rezerva.ro.\r\n\r\n- Ce modificări a cunoscut piaţa braşoveană a consumatorilor de turism? Care sunt cele mai solicitate pachete şi produse turistice? \r\n\r\n- Este greu de dat un răspuns. Au fost momente de stagnare şi momente de reorientare pe piaţa locală. Acum avem în faţă un moment de asemenea particular afectat de criza economică dar stimulat cei care au capacitatea de a crea... turism. Se simte o “boare” de revigorare a activităţii turistice care la nivel zonal se manifestă printr-un număr mai mare de turişti iar la nivel de agenţie de turism printr-un volum mai mare de încasări faţă de ultimii doi ani. În opinia mea acesta e efectul preţurilor “de excepţie” pe care criza le-a adus (iata şi partea bună a crizei !!), produsul turistic fiind regândit din temeli pentru a fi cât mai vandabil. Este foarte bine că există interes la nivel naţional pentru promovarea obiectivelor turistice interne, însă este prematur să punem creşterea firavă a numărului de turişti pe baza acestei campanii. Efectele consistente, sunt convins, nu vor întârzia să apară! Programele sociale, în schimb, campaniile “early booking” (“înscrieri timpurii”), iniţiate de ANAT şi partenerii săi pot fi considerate catalizatori ai turismului intern.\r\n\r\n- Judeţul Braşov este una dintre cele mai importante zone turistice ale României. Anul trecut nu s-a mai organizat Târgul de turism. Cum explicaţi acest lucru şi din perspectiva de preşedinte regional al Asociaţiei Naţionale a Agenţiilor de Turism (ANAT) ?\r\n\r\n- Vă mărturisesc, cu o strângere de inimă, m-a durut că nu am putut organiza târgul anul trecut. Nu am reuşit să realizăm bugetul minimal propus pentru a nu face rabat de la calitate. Mă refer la un program de marketing corespunzător, la manifestările din zilele de târg etc. Adevărul este că un târg de turism organizat la Braşov va genera în timp efecte nebănuite. Parteneriatele ANAT şi longevitatea mea în board-ul patronatului, unde în două mandate am fost şi primvicepreşedinte, au contribuit la crearea unor asocieri oneste, solide, cu administraţia locală. De altfel Primăria Braşov este co-organizator al târgului. În ceea ce priveşte mişcarea asociativă mă mândresc cu cel puţin două iniţiative: Corporate Identitiy ANAT, respectiv Travel Industry Card, singurul card dedicat celor din industria turismului şi care oferă multiple facilităţi posesorilor.\r\n\r\n- E de aşteptat ca a patra ediţie a Transylvania Tourism Fair să promoveze mai multe noutăţi. Cât de atractive sunt ele? \r\n\r\n- Noutatea absolută! Evenimentul va fi găzduit de o locaţie de excepţie, respectiv Braşov Business Park (BBP). Complexul deţine o suprafaţă de expunere de peste 5.000 metri pătraţi (interior +exterior) şi de o parcare (supra şi subterană) de 500 de locuri, atuuri pe care nici o altă structură de evenimente din oraş nu le oferă. Proiectul clădirii a fost premiat la Barcelona în 2009. La momentul la care vom inaugura această locaţie va fi operaţional un restaurant cu o capacitate de 140 locuri, iar după 1 iunie se va adăuga şi o cafenea. Cele 6 săli de conferinţe de la mezanin vor găzdui în perioada evenimentelor prezentări/mese rotunde specifice. Proiectul BBP apartine Ravensdale Investments SRL, membră a Vlerick Group deţinut de o familie belgiană. La nivel mondial,Vlerick Group desfăşoară o gamă variată de activităţi în domeniile textil, financiar, imobiliar. La parterul clădirii, Kron-Tour Lufthansa City Center, în calitate de Contractant Exclusiv pentru toate evenimentele care se vor organiza în această locaţie, este prezent cu un nou birou. Acesta va oferi toate serviciile specifice unei agenţii de turism, iar prin divizia Kron-Tour Fairs & Exhibitions, suport permanent pentru toate evenimentele. Participarea la târgul de turism va fi “la vârf”. Firmele prezente vor lansa oferte “last minut” dar şi “oferte speciale”, ce vor fi valabile doar pe perioada evenimentului. Din acest an, TTF devine internaţional , având în vedere societăţile înscrise până în momentul de faţă. Drumul de la târg “regional”, la târg \"internaţional \", a fost parcurs rapid (suntem doar la ediţia a-IV-a !). Le recomand braşovenilor, şi nu numai lor, să nu scape Târgul de turism din 13-15 mai de la Braşov Business Park. Aici vor putea da valoare cu adevărat timpului liber pe care-l au la dispoziţie!\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','INTERVIU NR.85 (APRILIE 2011) SORIN DENCESCU: „Turismul e o investiţie care dă valoare timpului liber !”','','inherit','open','open','','303-revision-2','','','2011-06-20 16:21:14','2011-06-20 14:21:14','',303,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/06/20/303-revision-2/',0,'revision','',0),(358,1,'2011-07-10 22:56:31','2011-07-10 20:56:31','Lalique, Porto sau Fatima ?\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/biblioteca/nr.86/mici/Carte-portugalia.jpg\")
S-ar putea ca Portugalia să vă placă mai mult decât Spania ori altă ţară din Europa cu deschidere la mare. Melancolia peisajelor, satele pierdute în munţi, străzile Lisabonei, pe alocuri murdare dar strălucitoare în acelaşi timp, pline de oameni şi cofetării, trotuarele decorate minuţios cu pietricele albe şi negre, ciorba de peşte “caldeirada”, sunt câteva dintre detaliile care v-ar putea atrage.\r\nCitiţi ghidul dedicat Portugaliei, din colecţia Key Guide, editat de Ad Libri. Primele 40 de pagini sintetizează istoria, tradiţiile, dar şi cultura modernă a ţării. Atracţiile sunt prezentate pe regiuni iar finalul cuprinde şi câteva trasee pe care le puteţi face cu maşina. Să beţi un vin bun, pe malul râului, la Porto, să mergeţi pe ruta credincioşilor către sanctuarul de la Fatima sau să admiraţi colecţia de bijuterii Lalique din Muzeul Gulbenkian din Lisabona – toate sunt idei bune. Nu uitaţi de Cabo da Roca, cel mai vestic punct al continentului european, farul navigatorilor ce se întorceau dinspre Americi. Dacă v-aţi hotărât să vă îndreptaţi în această vară într-acolo nu uitaţi să luaţi ghidul cu dumneavoastră.\r\n\r\n..................................................................................................................\r\nCotroceniul deschide poarta istorisirilor\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/biblioteca/nr.86/mici/Carte-Cotroceni.jpg\")
Palatul Cotroceni, în forma sa de astăzi, ca muzeu, este una dintre bijuteriile culturale ale capitalei. Bine ascunsă de ochiul curios locaţia are o istorie lungă, de mai bine de 300 de ani, care şi-a găsit povestitorul în Mihail Ipate.\r\n“Istoria Cotrocenilor. De la Şerban Cantacuzino la Barbu Ştirbei” este prima monografie a Cotrocenilor, fiind editată sub egida Muzeului Naţional Cotroceni. Pe lângă istoricul bisericii ori al reşedinţei domneşti autorul introduce elemente inedite de coloratură, vorbind despre transformarea mlaştinilor în parc ori despre egumenii greci care furau din banii lăcaşului spre supărarea boierilor pământeni. Uimirea călătorilor străini în vizită la reşedinţa domnească sau transformarea locului în cartierul general al lui Tudor Vladimirescu în 1821 sunt tot atâtea poveşti necunoscute pe care vă invităm să le savuraţi. Primul volum duce istoria până la jumătatea secolului al XIX-lea şi conţine în anexe reproduceri după documente şi hărţi de epocă, precum şi fotografii detaliate ale ansamblului medieval al reşedinţei domneşti de la Cotroceni.\r\n..................................................................................................................\r\nTurism în jurul ceştii de cafea\r\n\r\n ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/biblioteca/nr.86/mici/carte-cafea.jpg\")

Cafenele” a francezului Michel Braudeau, apărută la Editura Art. E o lectură excelentă, care vă poartă prin lume, pe urmele cafelei.\r\nLa Veneţia intraţi din Piaţa San Marco la foarte preţioasa Florian, la Viena savuraţi cafeaua în compania unor proprietari amabili. Staţi pe scaunul lui Casanova sau la mesele artiştilor din secolele trecute.

Alte asemenea anecdote întâlniţi frecventând, fie chiar numai literar, celebre cafenele europene din Madrid, Paris, Praga, ori Lisabona.

Ei bine, aflaţi că a intrat pe piaţa cărţilor lucrarea „Turism Rural-Tratat” tipărită de editura C.H. BECK.

Autorii sugerează că vremea romantismului rural a trecut. Nu mai merge doar cu horă-n bătătură, cu friptură şi cârnaţi, mămăliguţă, brânză şi lapte. Acum noile generaţii trebuie să creeze plus-valoare unui spaţiu natural. Şi chiar dacă unora nu le plac aceste cuvinte, asta-i viaţa, cu ele vom defila: marketing aplicat pe destinaţie, proiectarea muncii într-o structură de management, stabilirea priorităţilor micilor întreprinzători în perspectiva dezvoltării rurale.

Între 21 şi 25 mai US Travel Association va organiza în oraşul podului de aur a 43-a ediţie a celui mai mare târg de turism din Statele Unite dedicat specialiştilor. La International POW WOW 2011 vor participa în jur de 1000 de organizaţii şi companii americane, peste 1100 touroperatori din State şi alte 70 de ţări ale lumii. În Centrul de conferinţe Moscone vor avea loc peste 70.000 de întâlniri de afaceri, deja stabilite între participanţi vânzători, cumpărători, editori de turism etc.\r\n\r\nSan Francisco a găzduit acest târg, ultima dată acum 19 ani, în 1992. “Pentru industria turistică locală acesta este cel mai valoros eveniment pe care l-am fi putut organiza” a spus Joe D’Alessandro, preşedintele asociaţiei San Francisco Travel. “Nu este vorba de un număr mare de participanţi pentru capacităţile oraşului – peste 5.000 de oameni – dar rolul jucat de ei e semnificativ pentru turism – industria cea mai profitabilă a oraşului” a adăugat el. Având în vedere că peste 30% din vizitatorii anuali sunt din afara Americii, şi cheltuiesc mai mult decât turiştii locali, profesioniştii oraşului şi organizatorii au creat pentru participanţii la POW WOW evenimente unice. Programul de întâlniri de afaceri este mereu dublat de tururi oferite în cele mai interesante locaţii, pentru a prezenta oferta turistică într-un mod cât mai convingător. Vizite la Golden Gate Bridge sau Union Square, un tur cu trenul turistic la renumita Napa Valley, vizionarea oraşului din elicopter sunt doar câteva din programele oferite. Deschiderea de gală a târgului se va face pe PIER 39, o locaţie de top a oraşului, iar Muzeul de Young va fi surpriza uneia dintre serile culturale. O seară momorabilă anunţă organizatorii va fi cea organizată în interiorul fostei închisori de maximă securitate de la Alcatraz, devenită azi una dintre mărcile turistice ale oraşului.\r\n\r\nÎn mod tradiţional International POW WOW va fi urmat de tururi de familiarizare, de câteva zile, oferite participanţilor în 2011 de către California Travel and Tourism ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/san-francisco-21.jpg\" "\\"san-francisco-2\\"")

Roatanul e o insulă mică, undeva în Caraibe, spre coasta Americii Latine şi aparţine de Honduras. Vasele de croazieră opresc aici în fiecare săptămână de câteva ori iar clienţii se bucură timp de patru-cinci ore, de atracţii la mare căutare, catalogate ca exotice. În port un ansamblu local întâmpină nava cu dansuri tradiţionale iar turiştii se împart pe micile autobuze, în funcţie de turul ales. Variante nu sunt prea multe şi toate conţin, într-o formă sau alta, posibilitatea de a admira recifele de corali. În zona acestei insule se găsesc 95 % din coralii din Caraibe. Scufundările sau plimbarea cu un vaporaş cu fundul de sticlă sunt urmate de vizita la o fabrică de camee. Locaţia e faimoasă bineânţeles, preţurile pe măsură, iar bijuteriile sunt dăruite cu o frumuseţe modernă, graseiată, trasată cu polizorul. Până aici nimic nou sub soare pentru cel ce caută prin lume ineditul.\r\nRoatanul însă are un farmec discret, care se lasă respirat, dacă ştii unde şi mai ales prin ochii cui să priveşti. Urmeaz-o pe Sheila, unul dintre ghizii locali din Roatan, şi mai ales ascult-o. Insula pare că şerpuieşte, în golfuri rotunde care alternează cu dealuri pline de copaci mari, nemaivăzuţi, ca de basm. Zilele în aprilie, mai, sunt înnorate (e sezonul ploilor), umiditatea e mare dar se compensează cu respiraţia junglei, care ţine de răcoare. Iar ochii Sheilei sunt superbi. Un fel de albastru verzui care se acordează perfect cu luciul închis al frunzelor, cu veselia nesimulată de a povesti despre o mică insulă, casa sa, pe care nu a părăsit-o niciodată. Sheila încă nu a trecut de 30 de ani dar are patru copii, pe care i-a adus pe lume foarte simplu, cu moaşă, după moda locului. Sunt făcuţi cu doi bărbaţi diferiţi, care au părăsit-o pe rând, căci locuitorii nu prea se iau cu acte dar... iubesc intens. Râde şi dinţii perfect albi, eleganţi te intrigă. Te uiţi unde se uită Sheila, simţi ce simte ea, şi te întrebi dacă lumea e într-adevăr atât de mică încât să o mai revezi pe această doamnă, cândva. E simplă, cu părul prins la spate, cu o fustă roşie până în pământ. E splendidă cu gesturile dansante, uşor reţinute şi cu plăcerea sa înnăscută de a povesti. Îţi merge la casa sufletului. Pe strada cleioasă, paralelă cu marea, plină de copaci cu frunze de poveste şi adolescenţi ce vând cochilii roz, lucioase, localnicii usucă nuci de caju iar Sheila îţi atrage atenţia. Afli că de fapt caju-ul este coada unui fruct galben, care creşte într-un ditamai pomul şi în Roatan, o insulă uitată prin lume, ce aparţine de Honduras.

Ah! Iarăşi Istanbul? Iar să ne oprim în Marele Bazar? Da, e adevărat, e o clădire istorică, de pe la 1700, cu zeci de alei şi arcade elegante, decorate cu bucăţi de ceramică albastră, poate de Iznik. Dar a devenit bazarul în ultimele decenii, un fel de mall cu faimă romantică. Vânzătorii sunt tineri, marea majoritate preluând afacerile părinţilor. Sunt amabili dar nu negociază mai deloc şi se arată şi deranjaţi la tăieri de preţ. Sunt poligloţi, te văd de la distanţă şi mai toţi pricep limba română, că doar au magazine în Bucureşti! Ajungi la hotel cu cutia în care ţi-au ambalat frumosul glob multicolor de sticlă şi constaţi, cu amuzament, că piesa e făcută în China. Se întâmplă şi aşa pentru că turcii sunt comercianţi mondiali.\r\n\r\nŞi totuşi există o străduţă îngustă, cotitoare, în partea mai puţin umblată a bazarului, aşa zisa parte de vechituri, pe care trebuie să o găseşti. Atelierele de meşteşugari au cam dispărut, iar zona e căutată pentru anticariate. Meşteşugarii însă mai există, adaptaţi, ce-i drept, la cerinţele zilei. Printre ei Ahmet Aglamiş seamănă cu un bunic înalt. Înfofolit din cauza zilei reci, ploioase, mi-a părut la început un om trist. Privirea îi era în pământ şi se gândea probabil că sunt încă unul dintre sutele de străini care trec pe la micul să magazin, zilnic, căutând doar chilipiruri. Pe un coridor de vreo trei metri lungime avea înşirate mulţimi colorate de haine vechi din mătase, cu broderii şi mărgele. M-a privit şi ochii i s-au luminat abea când am ales să probez o rochie pătată şi l-am întrebat de unde e haina, căci nu părea turcească. Şi Ahmet a fost numai un zâmbet: „e din Uzbekistan, eu sunt uzbek, familia mea a venit de acolo cu mărfuri. Şi ce mărfuri.” Cu ochii minţii am văzut drumuri prăfuite, pământuri îndepărtate, am ghicit oameni dragi acestui om. Am plecat într-un final de la Ahmet căci se cobora seara. Nu vroia să mai îmi lase mâna pe care o strângea cald şi dădea să o sărute cu recunoştinţă. Avea lacrimi în ochi. Cumpărasem fără să negociez, ba chiar i-am dat în plus faţă de cât ceruse. Important în toată povestea noastră e însă faptul că am ales o rochie din Uzbekistan, ţara unui om pe care merită să îl cauţi. Ahmet Aglamiş e povestitorul la care mă gândesc de fiecare dată când iarăşi, ei asta e, trebuie să merg în Marele Bazar.\r\n\r\nDrag de Târpeşti\r\n\r\nDar istorii precum bunicii de acasă, din România, puţini mai ştiu să spună. De aceea o să închei acest reportaj cu un drum de făcut, acum cât mai avem la cine.\r\nÎncă înainte să ajung la locul căutat, satul m-a cucerit. Casele sunt bine legate de pământ, înfrăţite pe marginea uliţei cu garduri scunde de lemn. Ele arată oricui prispe sculptate, vopsite în culori vesele, pline de glastre cu flori. Târpeştiul, căci despre el vorbim, e un sat aşezat pe drumul ce leagă Târgu Neamţ de Roman. Iar acolo trăieşte familia Popa. Neculai Popa (1919-2010) a fost dăruit de Dumnezeu cu glas îmbietor şi cu bucurie de viaţă. Oamenii l-au ştiut prin sat şi prin lumea mare drept cântăreţ bisericesc, colecţionar pasionat de artă populară dar şi de creator popular. Muzeul pe care l-a deschis la Târpeşti, în curtea casei, în anii ’70, are peste 3.000 de piese, şi aduce împreună valori arheologice şi creaţie populară autentică, rânduite cu drag şi dăruire.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/mapamond-oameni-3.jpg\" "\\"mapamond-oameni-3\\"")
Astăzi în prispa casei de la Târpeşti ne întâmpină Elena Popa, soţia meşterului. Slăbuţă şi adusă de spate, primeşte cu atâta plăcere orice om ce-i calcă pragul, de parcă ar fi exact omul pe care-l aştepta. Uşile caselor se deschid iar timpul începe să-şi piardă sensul. Fiecare mască de Anul Nou, creaţie a soţului, are o poveste cu tâlc. La fel chipurile cioplite, de oameni. Unii sunt strâmbi, urâţi, haini, zgârciţi şi se aşează cu imaginaţie pe băncuţe: bătrân, babă, urât, drac, cucoană, doctor, ofiţer, evreu, negustor, ţigan, ţigancă, harap etc. Elena descrie orice sculptură, fiecare bucată aurie de lemn, de parcă ar avea suflet, de parcă s-ar cunoaşte de pe uliţa satului: “Uite, aicea e bogatul: gura strânsă, barba deasă ce-i acoperă pântecele şi ţine strâns în mână sacul cu bani.” – se amuză bunica, de găselniţa soţului. Apoi se apleacă şi bate uşor statuia pe cap. Nici una, nici două, găseşte apoi costumele de Anul Nou şi se îmbracă în capră cu panglici colorate. Arată dansul, aşa cum era obiceiul în sat, iar obrajii i se fac ca de purpură. O urmezi amuzat, captivat, şi vezi în ochii ei, la fiecare cuvânt, ceva magic, de poveste. E plăcerea, dublată de dragoste şi bunăvoinţă, de a vorbi despre o lume care mai există în frânturi ori în basmele copilăriei. Amiaza se pierde în ziua de primăvară şi, în ultima fotografie cu care te desparţi de loc, prinzi imaginea unei statui din grădină, deja plină de muşchi: doi oameni se ţin strâns, cu drag, în braţe. “Să mai veniţi pe la noi!” – Elena Popa ne face cu mâna din mijlocul curţii şi ne petrece cu privirea până în uliţa satului.\r\n\r\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU','MAPAMOND NR.85 (APRILIE 2011) ','','publish','open','open','','mapamond-nr-85-aprilie-2011','','','2011-06-20 16:43:15','2011-06-20 14:43:15','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=310',0,'post','',0),(311,1,'2011-06-20 16:37:10','2011-06-20 14:37:10','','san-francisco-3','','inherit','open','open','','san-francisco-3','','','2011-06-20 16:37:10','2011-06-20 14:37:10','',310,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/san-francisco-3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(312,1,'2011-06-20 16:37:36','2011-06-20 14:37:36','','san-francisco-2','','inherit','open','open','','san-francisco-2','','','2011-06-20 16:37:36','2011-06-20 14:37:36','',310,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/san-francisco-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(313,1,'2011-06-20 16:38:16','2011-06-20 14:38:16','','san-francisco-2','','inherit','open','open','','san-francisco-2-2','','','2011-06-20 16:38:16','2011-06-20 14:38:16','',310,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/san-francisco-21.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(314,1,'2011-06-20 16:39:35','2011-06-20 14:39:35','','Mapamond-oameni1','','inherit','open','open','','mapamond-oameni1','','','2011-06-20 16:39:35','2011-06-20 14:39:35','',310,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Mapamond-oameni1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(315,1,'2011-06-20 16:40:10','2011-06-20 14:40:10','','mapamond-oameni-istanbul2','','inherit','open','open','','mapamond-oameni-istanbul2','','','2011-06-20 16:40:10','2011-06-20 14:40:10','',310,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/mapamond-oameni-istanbul2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(316,1,'2011-06-20 16:40:42','2011-06-20 14:40:42','','mapamond-oameni-3','','inherit','open','open','','mapamond-oameni-3','','','2011-06-20 16:40:42','2011-06-20 14:40:42','',310,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/mapamond-oameni-3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(317,1,'2011-06-20 16:40:20','2011-06-20 14:40:20','SAN FRANCISCO E GATA DE SPECTACOL\nÎntre 21 şi 25 mai US Travel Association va organiza în oraşul podului de aur a 43-a ediţie a celui mai mare târg de turism din Statele Unite dedicat specialiştilor. La International POW WOW 2011 vor participa în jur de 1000 de organizaţii şi companii americane, peste 1100 touroperatori din State şi alte 70 de ţări ale lumii. În Centrul de conferinţe Moscone vor avea loc peste 70.000 de întâlniri de afaceri, deja stabilite între participanţi vânzători, cumpărători, editori de turism etc.\n\nSan Francisco a găzduit acest târg, ultima dată acum 19 ani, în 1992. “Pentru industria turistică locală acesta este cel mai valoros eveniment pe care l-am fi putut organiza” a spus Joe D’Alessandro, preşedintele asociaţiei San Francisco Travel. “Nu este vorba de un număr mare de participanţi pentru capacităţile oraşului – peste 5.000 de oameni – dar rolul jucat de ei e semnificativ pentru turism – industria cea mai profitabilă a oraşului” a adăugat el. Având în vedere că peste 30% din vizitatorii anuali sunt din afara Americii, şi cheltuiesc mai mult decât turiştii locali, profesioniştii oraşului şi organizatorii au creat pentru participanţii la POW WOW evenimente unice. Programul de întâlniri de afaceri este mereu dublat de tururi oferite în cele mai interesante locaţii, pentru a prezenta oferta turistică într-un mod cât mai convingător. Vizite la Golden Gate Bridge sau Union Square, un tur cu trenul turistic la renumita Napa Valley, vizionarea oraşului din elicopter sunt doar câteva din programele oferite. Deschiderea de gală a târgului se va face pe PIER 39, o locaţie de top a oraşului, iar Muzeul de Young va fi surpriza uneia dintre serile culturale. O seară momorabilă anunţă organizatorii va fi cea organizată în interiorul fostei închisori de maximă securitate de la Alcatraz, devenită azi una dintre mărcile turistice ale oraşului.\n\nÎn mod tradiţional International POW WOW va fi urmat de tururi de familiarizare, de câteva zile, oferite participanţilor în 2011 de către California Travel and Tourism Commission. International POW WOW 2011 din San Francisco va fi “câmpul de lucru” şi de documentare a peste 400 de jurnalişti din toată lumea printre care şi corespondenţii speciali ai revistei noastre. Echipa TRAVELLER MAGAZIN este invitată, pentru a 12-a oară consecutiv la această manifestare care include şi Media Market, un târg de turism dedicat editorilor de turism din întreaga lume.

Rezonăm din ce în ce mai puţin şi căutăm acel ceva care să facă experienţa noastră unică, memorabilă. Iar întâmplarea de care avem nevoie este întâlnirea cu un om deosebit, cu omul care ne face să ne îndrăgostim iremediabil de un anumit loc, omul care ştie să ne spună o poveste.\n\n\nSheila din Roatan\n\nRoatanul e o insulă mică, undeva în Caraibe, spre coasta Americii Latine şi aparţine de Honduras. Vasele de croazieră opresc aici în fiecare săptămână de câteva ori iar clienţii se bucură timp de patru-cinci ore, de atracţii la mare căutare, catalogate ca exotice. În port un ansamblu local întâmpină nava cu dansuri tradiţionale iar turiştii se împart pe micile autobuze, în funcţie de turul ales. Variante nu sunt prea multe şi toate conţin, într-o formă sau alta, posibilitatea de a admira recifele de corali. În zona acestei insule se găsesc 95 % din coralii din Caraibe. Scufundările sau plimbarea cu un vaporaş cu fundul de sticlă sunt urmate de vizita la o fabrică de camee. Locaţia e faimoasă bineânţeles, preţurile pe măsură, iar bijuteriile sunt dăruite cu o frumuseţe modernă, graseiată, trasată cu polizorul. Până aici nimic nou sub soare pentru cel ce caută prin lume ineditul.\nRoatanul însă are un farmec discret, care se lasă respirat, dacă ştii unde şi mai ales prin ochii cui să priveşti. Urmeaz-o pe Sheila, unul dintre ghizii locali din Roatan, şi mai ales ascult-o. Insula pare că şerpuieşte, în golfuri rotunde care alternează cu dealuri pline de copaci mari, nemaivăzuţi, ca de basm. Zilele în aprilie, mai, sunt înnorate (e sezonul ploilor), umiditatea e mare dar se compensează cu respiraţia junglei, care ţine de răcoare. Iar ochii Sheilei sunt superbi. Un fel de albastru verzui care se acordează perfect cu luciul închis al frunzelor, cu veselia nesimulată de a povesti despre o mică insulă, casa sa, pe care nu a părăsit-o niciodată. Sheila încă nu a trecut de 30 de ani dar are patru copii, pe care i-a adus pe lume foarte simplu, cu moaşă, după moda locului. Sunt făcuţi cu doi bărbaţi diferiţi, care au părăsit-o pe rând, căci locuitorii nu prea se iau cu acte dar... iubesc intens. Râde şi dinţii perfect albi, eleganţi te intrigă. Te uiţi unde se uită Sheila, simţi ce simte ea, şi te întrebi dacă lumea e într-adevăr atât de mică încât să o mai revezi pe această doamnă, cândva. E simplă, cu părul prins la spate, cu o fustă roşie până în pământ. E splendidă cu gesturile dansante, uşor reţinute şi cu plăcerea sa înnăscută de a povesti. Îţi merge la casa sufletului. Pe strada cleioasă, paralelă cu marea, plină de copaci cu frunze de poveste şi adolescenţi ce vând cochilii roz, lucioase, localnicii usucă nuci de caju iar Sheila îţi atrage atenţia. Afli că de fapt caju-ul este coada unui fruct galben, care creşte într-un ditamai pomul şi în Roatan, o insulă uitată prin lume, ce aparţine de Honduras. Mulţumim Sheila Henry!\n\nNegustorul Ahmet\n\nAh! Iarăşi Istanbul? Iar să ne oprim în Marele Bazar? Da, e adevărat, e o clădire istorică, de pe la 1700, cu zeci de alei şi arcade elegante, decorate cu bucăţi de ceramică albastră, poate de Iznik. Dar a devenit bazarul în ultimele decenii, un fel de mall cu faimă romantică. Vânzătorii sunt tineri, marea majoritate preluând afacerile părinţilor. Sunt amabili dar nu negociază mai deloc şi se arată şi deranjaţi la tăieri de preţ. Sunt poligloţi, te văd de la distanţă şi mai toţi pricep limba română, că doar au magazine în Bucureşti! Ajungi la hotel cu cutia în care ţi-au ambalat frumosul glob multicolor de sticlă şi constaţi, cu amuzament, că piesa e făcută în China. Se întâmplă şi aşa pentru că turcii sunt comercianţi mondiali.\n\nŞi totuşi există o străduţă îngustă, cotitoare, în partea mai puţin umblată a bazarului, aşa zisa parte de vechituri, pe care trebuie să o găseşti. Atelierele de meşteşugari au cam dispărut, iar zona e căutată pentru anticariate. Meşteşugarii însă mai există, adaptaţi, ce-i drept, la cerinţele zilei. Printre ei Ahmet Aglamiş seamănă cu un bunic înalt. Înfofolit din cauza zilei reci, ploioase, mi-a părut la început un om trist. Privirea îi era în pământ şi se gândea probabil că sunt încă unul dintre sutele de străini care trec pe la micul să magazin, zilnic, căutând doar chilipiruri. Pe un coridor de vreo trei metri lungime avea înşirate mulţimi colorate de haine vechi din mătase, cu broderii şi mărgele. M-a privit şi ochii i s-au luminat abea când am ales să probez o rochie pătată şi l-am întrebat de unde e haina, căci nu părea turcească. Şi Ahmet a fost numai un zâmbet: „e din Uzbekistan, eu sunt uzbek, familia mea a venit de acolo cu mărfuri. Şi ce mărfuri.” Cu ochii minţii am văzut drumuri prăfuite, pământuri îndepărtate, am ghicit oameni dragi acestui om. Am plecat într-un final de la Ahmet căci se cobora seara. Nu vroia să mai îmi lase mâna pe care o strângea cald şi dădea să o sărute cu recunoştinţă. Avea lacrimi în ochi. Cumpărasem fără să negociez, ba chiar i-am dat în plus faţă de cât ceruse. Important în toată povestea noastră e însă faptul că am ales o rochie din Uzbekistan, ţara unui om pe care merită să îl cauţi. Ahmet Aglamiş e povestitorul la care mă gândesc de fiecare dată când iarăşi, ei asta e, trebuie să merg în Marele Bazar.\n\nDrag de Târpeşti\n\nDar istorii precum bunicii de acasă, din România, puţini mai ştiu să spună. De aceea o să închei acest reportaj cu un drum de făcut, acum cât mai avem la cine.\nÎncă înainte să ajung la locul căutat, satul m-a cucerit. Casele sunt bine legate de pământ, înfrăţite pe marginea uliţei cu garduri scunde de lemn. Ele arată oricui prispe sculptate, vopsite în culori vesele, pline de glastre cu flori. Târpeştiul, căci despre el vorbim, e un sat aşezat pe drumul ce leagă Târgu Neamţ de Roman. Iar acolo trăieşte familia Popa. Neculai Popa (1919-2010) a fost dăruit de Dumnezeu cu glas îmbietor şi cu bucurie de viaţă. Oamenii l-au ştiut prin sat şi prin lumea mare drept cântăreţ bisericesc, colecţionar pasionat de artă populară dar şi de creator popular. Muzeul pe care l-a deschis la Târpeşti, în curtea casei, în anii ’70, are peste 3.000 de piese, şi aduce împreună valori arheologice şi creaţie populară autentică, rânduite cu drag şi dăruire.\n\nAstăzi în prispa casei de la Târpeşti ne întâmpină Elena Popa, soţia meşterului. Slăbuţă şi adusă de spate, primeşte cu atâta plăcere orice om ce-i calcă pragul, de parcă ar fi exact omul pe care-l aştepta. Uşile caselor se deschid iar timpul începe să-şi piardă sensul. Fiecare mască de Anul Nou, creaţie a soţului, are o poveste cu tâlc. La fel chipurile cioplite, de oameni. Unii sunt strâmbi, urâţi, haini, zgârciţi şi se aşează cu imaginaţie pe băncuţe: bătrân, babă, urât, drac, cucoană, doctor, ofiţer, evreu, negustor, ţigan, ţigancă, harap etc. Elena descrie orice sculptură, fiecare bucată aurie de lemn, de parcă ar avea suflet, de parcă s-ar cunoaşte de pe uliţa satului: “Uite, aicea e bogatul: gura strânsă, barba deasă ce-i acoperă pântecele şi ţine strâns în mână sacul cu bani.” – se amuză bunica, de găselniţa soţului. Apoi se apleacă şi bate uşor statuia pe cap. Nici una, nici două, găseşte apoi costumele de Anul Nou şi se îmbracă în capră cu panglici colorate. Arată dansul, aşa cum era obiceiul în sat, iar obrajii i se fac ca de purpură. O urmezi amuzat, captivat, şi vezi în ochii ei, la fiecare cuvânt, ceva magic, de poveste. E plăcerea, dublată de dragoste şi bunăvoinţă, de a vorbi despre o lume care mai există în frânturi ori în basmele copilăriei.

Unii sunt strâmbi, urâţi, haini, zgârciţi şi se aşează cu imaginaţie pe băncuţe: bătrân, babă, urât, drac, cucoană, doctor, ofiţer, evreu, negustor, ţigan, ţigancă, harap etc. Elena descrie orice sculptură, fiecare bucată aurie de lemn, de parcă ar avea suflet, de parcă s-ar cunoaşte de pe uliţa satului: “Uite, aicea e bogatul: gura strânsă, barba deasă ce-i acoperă pântecele şi ţine strâns în mână sacul cu bani.” – se amuză bunica, de găselniţa soţului. Apoi se apleacă şi bate uşor statuia pe cap. Nici una, nici două, găseşte apoi costumele de Anul Nou şi se îmbracă în capră cu panglici colorate. Arată dansul, aşa cum era obiceiul în sat, iar obrajii i se fac ca de purpură. O urmezi amuzat, captivat, şi vezi în ochii ei, la fiecare cuvânt, ceva magic, de poveste. E plăcerea, dublată de dragoste şi bunăvoinţă, de a vorbi despre o lume care mai există în frânturi ori în basmele copilăriei. Amiaza se pierde în ziua de primăvară şi, în ultima fotografie cu care te desparţi de loc, prinzi imaginea unei statui din grădină, deja plină de muşchi: doi oameni se ţin strâns, cu drag, în braţe. “Să mai veniţi pe la noi!” – Elena Popa ne face cu mâna din mijlocul curţii şi ne petrece cu privirea până în uliţa satului.\n\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU','MAPAMOND NR.85 (APRILIE 2011) ','','inherit','open','open','','310-autosave','','','2011-06-20 16:42:24','2011-06-20 14:42:24','',310,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/06/20/310-autosave/',0,'revision','',0),(319,1,'2011-06-20 16:40:54','2011-06-20 14:40:54','SAN FRANCISCO E GATA DE SPECTACOL\r\nÎntre 21 şi 25 mai US Travel Association va organiza în oraşul podului de aur a 43-a ediţie a celui mai mare târg de turism din Statele Unite dedicat specialiştilor. La International POW WOW 2011 vor participa în jur de 1000 de organizaţii şi companii americane, peste 1100 touroperatori din State şi alte 70 de ţări ale lumii. În Centrul de conferinţe Moscone vor avea loc peste 70.000 de întâlniri de afaceri, deja stabilite între participanţi vânzători, cumpărători, editori de turism etc.\r\n\r\nSan Francisco a găzduit acest târg, ultima dată acum 19 ani, în 1992. “Pentru industria turistică locală acesta este cel mai valoros eveniment pe care l-am fi putut organiza” a spus Joe D’Alessandro, preşedintele asociaţiei San Francisco Travel. “Nu este vorba de un număr mare de participanţi pentru capacităţile oraşului – peste 5.000 de oameni – dar rolul jucat de ei e semnificativ pentru turism – industria cea mai profitabilă a oraşului” a adăugat el. Având în vedere că peste 30% din vizitatorii anuali sunt din afara Americii, şi cheltuiesc mai mult decât turiştii locali, profesioniştii oraşului şi organizatorii au creat pentru participanţii la POW WOW evenimente unice. Programul de întâlniri de afaceri este mereu dublat de tururi oferite în cele mai interesante locaţii, pentru a prezenta oferta turistică într-un mod cât mai convingător. Vizite la Golden Gate Bridge sau Union Square, un tur cu trenul turistic la renumita Napa Valley, vizionarea oraşului din elicopter sunt doar câteva din programele oferite. Deschiderea de gală a târgului se va face pe PIER 39, o locaţie de top a oraşului, iar Muzeul de Young va fi surpriza uneia dintre serile culturale. O seară momorabilă anunţă organizatorii va fi cea organizată în interiorul fostei închisori de maximă securitate de la Alcatraz, devenită azi una dintre mărcile turistice ale oraşului.\r\n\r\nÎn mod tradiţional International POW WOW va fi urmat de tururi de familiarizare, de câteva zile, oferite participanţilor în 2011 de către California Travel and Tourism Commission. International POW WOW 2011 din San Francisco va fi “câmpul de lucru” şi de documentare a peste 400 de jurnalişti din toată lumea printre care şi corespondenţii speciali ai revistei noastre. Echipa TRAVELLER MAGAZIN este invitată, pentru a 12-a oară consecutiv la această manifestare care include şi Media Market, un târg de turism dedicat editorilor de turism din întreaga lume. OLIMPIC INTERNATIONAL, este compania de turism românească cu cea mai bună vizibilitate pe piaţa din SUA şi, în acelaşi timp, cea mai longevivă sub aspectul participării la POW WOW\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n..............................................................................\r\n\r\n\r\nOAMENI DE CĂUTAT ÎN LUMEA LARGĂ\r\n\r\nDe multe ori călătorim în locuri splendide dar care ne par, după un timp, repetitive: tot plaje cu soare, tot restaurante stilate, tot magazine peste magazine, tot peisaje frumoase, tradiţii şi dansuri locale. Rezonăm din ce în ce mai puţin şi căutăm acel ceva care să facă experienţa noastră unică, memorabilă. Iar întâmplarea de care avem nevoie este întâlnirea cu un om deosebit, cu omul care ne face să ne îndrăgostim iremediabil de un anumit loc, omul care ştie să ne spună o poveste.\r\n\r\n\r\nSheila din Roatan\r\n\r\nRoatanul e o insulă mică, undeva în Caraibe, spre coasta Americii Latine şi aparţine de Honduras. Vasele de croazieră opresc aici în fiecare săptămână de câteva ori iar clienţii se bucură timp de patru-cinci ore, de atracţii la mare căutare, catalogate ca exotice. În port un ansamblu local întâmpină nava cu dansuri tradiţionale iar turiştii se împart pe micile autobuze, în funcţie de turul ales. Variante nu sunt prea multe şi toate conţin, într-o formă sau alta, posibilitatea de a admira recifele de corali. În zona acestei insule se găsesc 95 % din coralii din Caraibe. Scufundările sau plimbarea cu un vaporaş cu fundul de sticlă sunt urmate de vizita la o fabrică de camee. Locaţia e faimoasă bineânţeles, preţurile pe măsură, iar bijuteriile sunt dăruite cu o frumuseţe modernă, graseiată, trasată cu polizorul. Până aici nimic nou sub soare pentru cel ce caută prin lume ineditul.\r\nRoatanul însă are un farmec discret, care se lasă respirat, dacă ştii unde şi mai ales prin ochii cui să priveşti. Urmeaz-o pe Sheila, unul dintre ghizii locali din Roatan, şi mai ales ascult-o. Insula pare că şerpuieşte, în golfuri rotunde care alternează cu dealuri pline de copaci mari, nemaivăzuţi, ca de basm. Zilele în aprilie, mai, sunt înnorate (e sezonul ploilor), umiditatea e mare dar se compensează cu respiraţia junglei, care ţine de răcoare. Iar ochii Sheilei sunt superbi. Un fel de albastru verzui care se acordează perfect cu luciul închis al frunzelor, cu veselia nesimulată de a povesti despre o mică insulă, casa sa, pe care nu a părăsit-o niciodată. Sheila încă nu a trecut de 30 de ani dar are patru copii, pe care i-a adus pe lume foarte simplu, cu moaşă, după moda locului. Sunt făcuţi cu doi bărbaţi diferiţi, care au părăsit-o pe rând, căci locuitorii nu prea se iau cu acte dar... iubesc intens. Râde şi dinţii perfect albi, eleganţi te intrigă. Te uiţi unde se uită Sheila, simţi ce simte ea, şi te întrebi dacă lumea e într-adevăr atât de mică încât să o mai revezi pe această doamnă, cândva. E simplă, cu părul prins la spate, cu o fustă roşie până în pământ. E splendidă cu gesturile dansante, uşor reţinute şi cu plăcerea sa înnăscută de a povesti. Îţi merge la casa sufletului. Pe strada cleioasă, paralelă cu marea, plină de copaci cu frunze de poveste şi adolescenţi ce vând cochilii roz, lucioase, localnicii usucă nuci de caju iar Sheila îţi atrage atenţia. Afli că de fapt caju-ul este coada unui fruct galben, care creşte într-un ditamai pomul şi în Roatan, o insulă uitată prin lume, ce aparţine de Honduras. Mulţumim Sheila Henry!\r\n\r\nNegustorul Ahmet\r\n\r\nAh! Iarăşi Istanbul? Iar să ne oprim în Marele Bazar? Da, e adevărat, e o clădire istorică, de pe la 1700, cu zeci de alei şi arcade elegante, decorate cu bucăţi de ceramică albastră, poate de Iznik. Dar a devenit bazarul în ultimele decenii, un fel de mall cu faimă romantică. Vânzătorii sunt tineri, marea majoritate preluând afacerile părinţilor. Sunt amabili dar nu negociază mai deloc şi se arată şi deranjaţi la tăieri de preţ. Sunt poligloţi, te văd de la distanţă şi mai toţi pricep limba română, că doar au magazine în Bucureşti! Ajungi la hotel cu cutia în care ţi-au ambalat frumosul glob multicolor de sticlă şi constaţi, cu amuzament, că piesa e făcută în China. Se întâmplă şi aşa pentru că turcii sunt comercianţi mondiali.\r\n\r\nŞi totuşi există o străduţă îngustă, cotitoare, în partea mai puţin umblată a bazarului, aşa zisa parte de vechituri, pe care trebuie să o găseşti. Atelierele de meşteşugari au cam dispărut, iar zona e căutată pentru anticariate. Meşteşugarii însă mai există, adaptaţi, ce-i drept, la cerinţele zilei. Printre ei Ahmet Aglamiş seamănă cu un bunic înalt. Înfofolit din cauza zilei reci, ploioase, mi-a părut la început un om trist. Privirea îi era în pământ şi se gândea probabil că sunt încă unul dintre sutele de străini care trec pe la micul să magazin, zilnic, căutând doar chilipiruri. Pe un coridor de vreo trei metri lungime avea înşirate mulţimi colorate de haine vechi din mătase, cu broderii şi mărgele. M-a privit şi ochii i s-au luminat abea când am ales să probez o rochie pătată şi l-am întrebat de unde e haina, căci nu părea turcească. Şi Ahmet a fost numai un zâmbet: „e din Uzbekistan, eu sunt uzbek, familia mea a venit de acolo cu mărfuri. Şi ce mărfuri.” Cu ochii minţii am văzut drumuri prăfuite, pământuri îndepărtate, am ghicit oameni dragi acestui om. Am plecat într-un final de la Ahmet căci se cobora seara. Nu vroia să mai îmi lase mâna pe care o strângea cald şi dădea să o sărute cu recunoştinţă. Avea lacrimi în ochi. Cumpărasem fără să negociez, ba chiar i-am dat în plus faţă de cât ceruse. Important în toată povestea noastră e însă faptul că am ales o rochie din Uzbekistan, ţara unui om pe care merită să îl cauţi. Ahmet Aglamiş e povestitorul la care mă gândesc de fiecare dată când iarăşi, ei asta e, trebuie să merg în Marele Bazar.\r\n\r\nDrag de Târpeşti\r\n\r\nDar istorii precum bunicii de acasă, din România, puţini mai ştiu să spună. De aceea o să închei acest reportaj cu un drum de făcut, acum cât mai avem la cine.\r\nÎncă înainte să ajung la locul căutat, satul m-a cucerit. Casele sunt bine legate de pământ, înfrăţite pe marginea uliţei cu garduri scunde de lemn. Ele arată oricui prispe sculptate, vopsite în culori vesele, pline de glastre cu flori. Târpeştiul, căci despre el vorbim, e un sat aşezat pe drumul ce leagă Târgu Neamţ de Roman. Iar acolo trăieşte familia Popa. Neculai Popa (1919-2010) a fost dăruit de Dumnezeu cu glas îmbietor şi cu bucurie de viaţă. Oamenii l-au ştiut prin sat şi prin lumea mare drept cântăreţ bisericesc, colecţionar pasionat de artă populară dar şi de creator popular. Muzeul pe care l-a deschis la Târpeşti, în curtea casei, în anii ’70, are peste 3.000 de piese, şi aduce împreună valori arheologice şi creaţie populară autentică, rânduite cu drag şi dăruire.\r\n\r\nAstăzi în prispa casei de la Târpeşti ne întâmpină Elena Popa, soţia meşterului. Slăbuţă şi adusă de spate, primeşte cu atâta plăcere orice om ce-i calcă pragul, de parcă ar fi exact omul pe care-l aştepta. Uşile caselor se deschid iar timpul începe să-şi piardă sensul. Fiecare mască de Anul Nou, creaţie a soţului, are o poveste cu tâlc. La fel chipurile cioplite, de oameni. Unii sunt strâmbi, urâţi, haini, zgârciţi şi se aşează cu imaginaţie pe băncuţe: bătrân, babă, urât, drac, cucoană, doctor, ofiţer, evreu, negustor, ţigan, ţigancă, harap etc. Elena descrie orice sculptură, fiecare bucată aurie de lemn, de parcă ar avea suflet, de parcă s-ar cunoaşte de pe uliţa satului: “Uite, aicea e bogatul: gura strânsă, barba deasă ce-i acoperă pântecele şi ţine strâns în mână sacul cu bani.” – se amuză bunica, de găselniţa soţului.

De ce se bulucesc românii spre staţiunile bulgare, în cazul de faţă spre Albena? Pentru că oamenii de aici ştiu să-şi condimenteze produsele turistice cu noutăţi, oferte speciale, pachete all-inclusive reduceri early booking (20% până la 30 aprilie, respectiv 10% până la 31 mai), şi un preţ corect în care se regăseşte respectul comercial faţă de clienţi.

Finalizarea acestuia face parte din Faza a III-a a programului de dezvoltare, demarat în august 2009. Valoarea investiţiei se ridică la 60 de milioane de euro.\r\n\r\nNoul terminal a fost proiectat pentru a răspunde şi cerinţelor impuse de aderarea României la spaţiul Schengen. Numărul porţilor de îmbarcare/debarcare a crescut de la 5 la 14. În prezent terminalul dispune de 24 de puncte de îmbarcare, faţă de 9 câte erau înainte. Pe o suprafaţă nou construită de 16.600 mp, pasagerii au la dispoziţie facilităţi performante, circa 1.500 de locuri în sălile de aşteptare, servicii superioare, susţinute de tehnologii de vârf integrate într-un design modern şi expresiv. Suprafaţa utilă totală a aeroportului internaţional este de 24.000 de metri pătraţi. La finalizarea Fazei a III-a a programului „Dezvoltarea şi Modernizarea Aeroportului Internaţional Henri Coandă Bucureşti”, operaţiuni ce se vor încheia anul viitor, capacitatea de prelucrare va fi de 6 milioane pasageri pe an, faţă de 4,5 milioane în prezent.\r\n\r\nMinistrul Anca Boagiu sublinia cu prilejul inaugurării terminalului: “Dacă în anul 2005 s-a înregistrat un trafic de 3.000.0000 de pasageri, în 2010 am avut aproape 5.000.000 de pasageri. Pentru anul 2011 (care includ şi traficul de pasageri de pe aeroportul Băneasa – circa 2.000.000 de pasageri) estimăm un trafic de aproximativ 7.250.000 de pasageri, iar pentru 2015, aproape 12.000.000 de pasageri. Aeroportul Henri Coandă va deveni, într-un viitor apropiat un veritabil hub regional”.\r\nInaugurarea noului terminal a fost marcată şi de primul zbor al companiei naţionale TAROM, cu o aeronavă Boeing 737-700, decorată cu insemnele SkyTeam, alianţă la care a aderat în iunie 2010.\r\n\r\nS-a schimbat garda la TAROM şi ROMATSA \r\nGabriela Bordea a preluat funcţia de director general al companiei naţionale TAROM. Aceasta a înlocuit-o pe Ruxandra Brutaru, care a demisionat în luna martie. Bordea şi-a început activitatea la TAROM în anul 1973. \"De-a lungul carierei sale el a lucrat în sectoare ale Direcţiei de marketing şi vânzări. Între anii 1982 şi 1985 a fost reprezentantă al companiei Tarom la Paris, iar 1990 şi 1996 la Bruxelles, iar în perioada 1999-2004 la biroul de la Tel Aviv. Până în 2009 Bordea a ocupat funcţia de şef al Departamentului de vânzări, iar din 2009 a ocupat pe cea de director de marketing şi vânzări al Tarom”, se arată într-un comunicat al companiei naţionale.\r\n\r\nDe la începutul acestei luni şi ROMATSA are un nou lider. În funcţia de director general al fost numit Adrian Remus Şerban. El îl înlocuieşte pe Bogdan Donciu ce a fost numit consilier personal al ministrului Transporturilor, Anca Boagiu, pe probleme de aviaţie. ROMATSA, a fost infiinţată în 1991 şi activeaza în domeniul serviciilor de trafic aerian, furnizate atât aeronavelor civile cât şi aeronavelor care aterizează sau decolează de pe aeroporturile din România.

Dar doar pe perioada unei mini-vacanţe all inclusive pentru 18 colegi de birou. Acesta este doar premiul cel mare al Concursului GET RID OF YOUR BOSS lansat de Blue Air, prima companie de smart flying din România. Conceptul s-a născut din dorinţa de a relaxa atmosfera la serviciu, la birou! Este vorba de un original concurs pentru… subalterni. Şeful are inclus doar biletul de avion dus, nu are cazare, masă şi nici retur! Concursul se desfăşoară în perioada 1 - 30 aprilie.\r\n\r\nDupă cum ne-a precizat Florentina Tatu, directorul de promovare al companiei Blue Air “angajaţii vor trebui să intre pe pagina de internet www.getridofyourboss.ro, să îşi creeze şi denumească un avion virtual, să îşi aleagă una dintre destinaţiile Blue Air unde doresc sa călătorească cu echipa de la birou şi să invite colegii să urce la bord. E importantă înscrierea şefilor, pentru că Blue Air le va da vestea cea mare. Pentru mai multe şanse în obţinerea celor 3 premii puse-n joc, participanţii sunt invitaţi să posteze un film cât mai original, cu mesajul lor pentru şef, pe www.peteava.ro/getrid. Apoi, ei trebuie să distribuie link-ul filmului pe pagina de Facebook Get Rid of Your Boss ca să-i voteze cunoscuţii (voturile de pe site-ul www.getridofyourboss.ro se vor cumula cu cele din contul de Facebook)”. În final vor fi desemnate câştigătoare trei echipe. Premiul cel mare va fi ales prin tragere la sorţi. Pentru celelalte două premii, concurează echipele cu cele mai multe voturi. Blue Air va asigura transportul spre destinaţia aleasă, Garanti Bank achită cazarea şi masa iar Vodafone premiază cu smartphone-uri!\r\n\r\n………………………………………..\r\n\r\nSNAGOV: CENTRU AERONAUTIC DE EXCELENŢĂ\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/centru-aeronautic-Snagov.jpg\" "\\"centru-aeronautic-Snagov\\"")
Anca Boagiu, Ministrul Transporturilor şi Infrastructurii a anunţat înfiinţarea unui Centru de excelenţă regional pentru pregătirea şi perfecţionarea personalului aeronautic civil. Decizia survine într-un moment în care aviaţia civilă din România apelează tot mai mult la cursuri de specializare pentru personalul propriu la centre similare din Europa sau din lume, cu costurile aferente extrem de ridicate. În acelaşi timp, înfiinţarea unui Centru regional de excelenţă întăreşte poziţia aviaţiei civile din România în regiune.\r\n\r\n“Noua instituţie profesională este capabilă să asigure specializarea şi perfecţionarea personalului aeronautic civil, să acorde consultanţă de specialitate pe domenii diverse, dar şi să permită implicarea specialiştilor români în activităţi internaţionale de susţinere a unor programe de anvergură. Noua instituţie este consolidată de Autoritatea Aeronautică Civilă Română (AACR), Administraţia Română a Serviciilor de Trafic Aerian (ROMATSA), TAROM, Compania Naţională Aeroporturi Bucureşti (CNAB). La dezvoltarea facilităţilor centrului vor colabora şi Şcoala Superioară de Aviaţie Civilă şi Aeroclubul României” - a precizat ministrul Boagiu.\r\n\r\nSediul centrului va fi amplasat la Snagov şi va beneficia de infrastructura complexului deţinut de Societatea Feroviară de Turism, se precizează într-un comunicat al Ministerului Transporturilor.\r\n...................................................................................\r\n\r\nSE NAŞTE O NOUĂ LUME\r\nTarom şi Airbus se concentrează pe biocombustibili\r\nUn proiect al cărui centru va fi amplasat în România prevede că ţara noastră va dezvolta o reţea de producţie şi comercializarea a biocombustibililor pentru transportul aerian. Bio-kerosenul va fi produs în cadrul unui parteneriat consolidat de către compania naţională TAROM şi constructorul de aeronave AIRBUS împreună cu un consorţiu de investitori. “Acesta este primul proiect european care va reuni fermierii, rafinăriile şi o companie aeriana pentru susţinerea comercializarii biocombustibililor produşi” - precizează, într-un comunicat, Paul Nash, directorul diviziei de energii alternative al Airbus. Oficialii Airbus nu au dat detalii privitoare la valoarea investiţiei şi nici despre zona în care va fi amplasat viitorul centru de producţie.\r\n\r\nDin informaţiile disponibile proiectul are în vedere utilizarea unei varietăţi de surse de biomasă pentru materia primă. El va pune accent pe camelină un suport cu un potenţial energetic ridicat. Camelina se cultivă în România şi este folosită de fermieri în egală măsură ca hrană de calitate pentru animale. În cadrul proiectului managementul va fi asigurat de către o organizaţie non-guvernamentală românească. Consorţiul de proiect va colabora cu Facultatea de Agronomie Bucureşti şi cu Centrul de Biotehnologie al Facultăţii de Medicină Veterinară (BIOTEHGEN) în etapa de amenajare a culturilor de camelină, de recoltare şi de producţie.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU','TRANSPORTURI NR.85 (APRILIE 2011) LA OTOPENI: Terminal de 60 de milioane de euro','','publish','open','open','','transporturi-nr-85-aprilie-2011-la-otopeni-terminal-de-60-de-milioane-de-euro','','','2011-06-20 17:02:21','2011-06-20 15:02:21','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=328',0,'post','',0),(329,1,'2011-06-20 17:00:21','2011-06-20 15:00:21','','Blue-Air-2','','inherit','open','open','','blue-air-2','','','2011-06-20 17:00:21','2011-06-20 15:00:21','',328,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Blue-Air-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(330,1,'2011-06-20 17:01:03','2011-06-20 15:01:03','','centru-aeronautic-Snagov','','inherit','open','open','','centru-aeronautic-snagov','','','2011-06-20 17:01:03','2011-06-20 15:01:03','',328,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/centru-aeronautic-Snagov.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(331,1,'2011-06-20 17:01:28','2011-06-20 15:01:28','LA OTOPENI: Terminal de 60 de milioane de euro\n\nDe la sfârşitul lunii trecute Aeroportului Internaţional Henri Coandă de la Bucureşti şi-a completat capacitatea de operare a pasagerilor prin deschiderea unui nou terminal.

Deşi se confruntă cu o criză fără precedent, grecii au anunţat o decizie de pe urma căreia speră să atragă mai mulţi turişti şi, fireşte, mai multe încasări la buget. Ministerul elen al Transporturilor a hotărât eliminarea taxelor de aterizare, decolare şi staţionare de pe toate aeroporturile, cu excepţia celui din Atena (A.I.A. Eleftherios Venizelos), pentru perioada 1 aprilie–31 decembrie. Prin aceasta se speră accelerarea circulaţiei turistice şi creşterea numărul de zboruri spre Grecia.

Bine ascunsă de ochiul curios locaţia are o istorie lungă, de mai bine de 300 de ani, care şi-a găsit povestitorul în Mihail Ipate.\n“Istoria Cotrocenilor. De la Şerban Cantacuzino la Barbu Ştirbei” este prima monografie a Cotrocenilor, fiind editată sub egida Muzeului Naţional Cotroceni. Pe lângă istoricul bisericii ori al reşedinţei domneşti autorul introduce elemente inedite de coloratură, vorbind despre transformarea mlaştinilor în parc ori despre egumenii greci care furau din banii lăcaşului spre supărarea boierilor pământeni.

Uimirea călătorilor străini în vizită la reşedinţa domnească sau transformarea locului în cartierul general al lui Tudor Vladimirescu în 1821 sunt tot atâtea poveşti necunoscute pe care vă invităm să le savuraţi. Primul volum duce istoria până la jumătatea secolului al XIX-lea şi conţine în anexe reproduceri după documente şi hărţi de epocă, precum şi fotografii detaliate ale ansamblului medieval al reşedinţei domneşti de la Cotroceni.\r\n..................................................................................................................\r\nTurism în jurul ceştii de cafea\r\n\r\n Există pasionaţi de gastronomie, ciocolată, modă sau de muzee.

E o ţară bogată cu o natură copleşitoare, dar cu pământuri care par părăsite. Oameni sunt săraci, suspendaţi în timp dar iubesc voia bună, muzica, închinatul, mesele în familie. O ţară fără mall-uri, supermarketuri şi, aparent, fără prea mai frustrări. Găsiţi în paginile următoare motivaţia pentru care să alegeţi drumul mai puţin bătut al Georgiei pentru o vacanţă aventuroasă.\r\n\r\nRâul Mtkvari deschide o vale întinsă în centrul ţării fiind flancat de-a lungul său de masivele seducătoare ale Caucazului de Sud şi de Nord. Valea, plină de pomi fructiferi în floare în luna mai, este punctul de pornire spre munţi, spre principalele atracţii ale anticei Colhide (pământul lânii de aur) ori ale Gruziei (denumirea sovietică a ţării). Deşi în Georgia se măreşte pe an ce trece o autostradă excelentă, cea mai bună variantă de călătorie este 4X4, adică în caravană, cu jeep-urile. Asta pentru a putea experimenta căi neumblate, sate uitate de lume, peisaje silenţioase şi, că aşa e la modă acum, cât mai mult specific local. Programele special concepute pentru asemenea destinaţie au 7 zile şi combină într-un mod relaxant condusul pe drum forestier (off-road ca să folosim un cod internaţional) cu vizite inedite şi cu căţăratul pe coclauri.\r\n\r\nIstoria lasă urme\r\n\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/86/mapamond/mici/georgia-112.jpg\")
Plecăm din Tbilisi. Drumul conduce către culmile verzi şi blânde ale Caucazului de Sud. Pădurile alternează cu pajişti şi zone cu o rocă aurie, prăfoasă. Cam la 20 de kilometri de oraş se lasă un drum ce ajunge la muntele Didgori. Aici s-au bătut cândva în secolul al XII-lea georgienii, conduşi de un legendar rege David Întemeietorul, şi turcii selgiucizi. Fostul câmp de război a fost transformat în 1973 într-o culme-monument. Dealul este plin de statui şi săbii mitice, întoarse, înfipte în pământ, lucitoare, ca nişte cruci. Drumul către munte este marcat încă din şosea prin şoimi de fier, care îşi întind aripa în direcţia de urmat. Vântul sună clopotele mici agăţate printre statui, culmile Caucazului îşi schimbă culorile, iar de jur împrejur, pe kilometri întregi nu e nici ţipenie de om.\r\nÎntorşi în drumul principal un obiectiv clasic este Mtskheta – prima capitală a Georgiei medievale. Centrul localităţii e refăcut pe de-antregul cu fonduri guvernamentale (casele din piatră de râu cu balcoane de lemn ca la catalog). Aici se găseşte Svetitskhoveli, cea mai mare şi mai veche biserică ortodoxă a Georgiei. Frescele în stil bizantin îi împodobesc pereţii amintind şi de faptul că locul este plin de mormintele regilor georgieni. De-a lungul văii un popas interesant este şi Gori, oraşul lui Stalin. Există bulevardul cu numele său, un muzeu care îi este dedicat. Deşi, pentru amuzament unii localnici îi păstrează un portret în bucătărie ori pe hol, statuia din centrul oraşului a fost dată jos acum 2 ani.\r\n\r\nSă închinăm pentru Georgia\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/86/mapamond/mici/georgia-072.jpg\")
Din Bakuriani, o staţiune de ski faimoasă pe vremea ruşilor dar cu aer de abandon acum, se merge pe un drum forestier către două sate, opuse ca şi înfăţişare. Andeziti arată ca după război. Fabrica e în paragină (ca mai toate celelalte), în drumul noroios stau încleiate camioane verzi şi case placate cu carton, vaci şi porci. O baracă de lemn e crâşma, cu firmă colorată, intitulată cu haz dar şi subânţeles „La lacrima nevesti-mi”. Mai sus Tori e un sat tipic de munte, cu case în întregime de lemn. Pământul se ară cu plugul iar plăcinta se face la cuptor cu lemne. Moşul Valiko lasă treaba, scoate pahare şi cornul de băutură şi pune repede masa pentru oaspeţi. Tradiţia spune că un georgian adevărat e mereu bucuros de oaspeţi şi, mai ales, trebuie să ştie „tamada” – arta închinatului. Se bea cha-cha (distilat din struguri) şi se închină cu emfază, cu fraze cât mai artistic alcătuite: „pentru Georgia, ţara mea. Pentru casa mea şi cel mai frumos peisaj din lume” (din balconul de lemn, peste pajiştea udă şi pădure se întind crestele încă înzăpezite ale Caucazului).\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/86/mapamond/mici/georgia-144.jpg\")
În Georgia se poate închina ore întregi, o masă în familie, chiar şi la restaurant, ţinând mult. Inevitabil se bea în cinstea oaspeţilor, a soţiilor îngăduitoare etc. Mâncarea este extraordinar de gustoasă. Carnea carne, cartofii cartofi! Se mănâncă mult miel, tot felul de frigărui înfăşate în lipie fină, un fel de supă cu carne într-o punguţă de aluat, totul se condimentează iar coriandrul nu lipseşte din preparate. „Phali” e încă ceva delicios: o tocătură făcută bulete în care se amestecă tot felul de verdeţuri (spanac, vinete) şi se asezonează cu suc de rodie.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/86/mapamond/mici/georgia-178.jpg\")
Argument pentru aventură\r\nSpecificul programelor 4X4, pe lângă faptul că ai acces la locuri izolate, este dat de un grad ridicat de aventură şi libertate de mişcare asezonată cu imprevizibil. În fiecare zi se petrec cam două – trei ore în maşină, conducând. Drumurile forestiere, pline de noroi sau drumurile naţionale, pline de gropi, te obligă să-ţi exersezi aptitudini în ale şofatului. Jeep-urile sunt dotate cu busolă electronică (încorporată în oglinda retrovizoare), cu încălzire pentru scaune, staţii de emisie recepţie etc. Ghidul care însoţeşte caravana întotdeauna este cel care avertizează asupra specificului drumului ales. Imprevizibil e la tot pasul: mai cade un copac şi trebuie mutat din drum, se mai împotmoleşte roata şi afară plouă, se blochează o şosea şi trebuie să intri într-un bar să te încălzeşti şi aici cunoşti armeni, ruşi, turci şi te pui la masă cu ei. Restul orelor te lasă să experimentezi: vizite în casele oamenilor, opriri la stână, în piaţa oraşului, plimbări relaxate prin localităţi sau câteva ore de mers pe munte, pe trasee de dificultate scăzută.\r\n\r\nDe la Kazbegi la cascada şarpelui\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/86/mapamond/mici/georgia-212.jpg\")
Una din cele mai frumoase zile în Georgia am prins-o în drum spre Caucazul de Nord. În Valea Argavi se conduce pe lângă lacul de baraj Zhinvali, în Gudauri (o staţiune de ski aerisită) încă se poate skia. De aici drumul trece muntele prin pasul Jvari (2379 m) iar continuarea, înspre graniţa cu Rusia, te lasă fără cuvinte. Vârfurile Caucazului, de la 3.000 la 5.000 de metri, acaparează privirile. Albul zăpezii este amestecat cu nisipul adus din Sahara de o furtună recentă. Ploile au colorat muntele în fâşii galbene!\r\nDin Stepantsminda se intră în Parcul Natural Kazbegi şi se face off road pentru a ajunge la cascada Gveleti (a şarpelui) - cam 30 minute de urcat pe jos. Gveleti este ultima localitate până la graniţa cu Rusia. Tot în Stepantsminda vedeţi şi imaginea comercială cea mai cunoscută în turismul georgian: deasupra localităţii, pe un platou flancat de nori şi zăpadă, este Mânăstirea Gergeti (Chminda Sameba). Femei ale locului pe nume Mariami, Kesaria, Tekla, Elene, Irina, Ketevani, Anuka ori Natia urcă drumul noroios în fiecare zi de slujbă ca să primească binecuvântarea ortodoxă. Soţii lor, fie că sunt Giorgi, David, Vakhtangi, Sandro, Nikolozi, Levani ori Tengo, le urmează. Copii călăresc fără şa iar un ultim element de specific local pe care-l amintesc: ochii mari, rotunzi, albastru-cenuşiu câteodată.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/86/mapamond/mici/georgia-303.jpg\")

Nordul european îşi desface vălul fascinaţiei turistice: în 2011 oraşele Turku (Finlanda) şi Tallinn (capitala Estoniei) au devenit Capitale ale culturii europene.\r\nSub brandul “poveşti ale ţărmului” specialiştii estoni au realizat o campanie de promovare rafinată, de o eleganţă silenţioasă, ca şi ţara însăşi. Estonia are o populaţie care depăşeşte puţin milionul de locuitori, dar Tallinn este una din cele mai frumoase capitale ale nordului. Cetatea sa medievală, cu bastioane solide şi case vechi de sute de ani concentrează activităţile turistice şi culturale ale anului. Printre cele mai interesante se numără: Festivalul filmului mut, Festivalul de muzică barocă sau Festivalul sculpturilor de gheaţă (cu o secţiune specială de statui... în flăcări!). Înainte să vă planificaţi deci vizita pe anul acesta, dacă alegeţi Estonia, informaţi-vă şi de pe www.tallinn2011.ee/eng.\r\nDin Tallinn puteţi lua feribotul şi traversa Baltica pentru a ajunge în Finlanda (Helsinki). De acolo vă îndreptaţi spre Turku, cel mai vechi oraş al ţării. Destinaţia este cunoscută călătorilor precum oraşul oficial al Crăciunului. Printre atracţiile special gândite pentru 2011 se numără cea mai mare expoziţie de fotografie contemporană organizată vreodată în Finlanda, spectacole neconvenţionale (precum “Istoria absurdă a operei”) sau seri de dans finlandez-japonez. Oraşul implică în cele peste 4000 de evenimente ale anului în jur de 12.000 artişti locali. Pentru mai multe idei căutaţi şi pe www.turku2011.fi/en.\r\nCapitala europeană a culturii este cel mai cunoscut eveniment cultural în UE. Locaţiile sunt selectate anual, ajungându-se deja la 40 de oraşe ce au deţinut acest titlu. Printre ele s-a numărat şi oraşul Sibiu.\r\nSINZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n.............................................................................................................................\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/86/mapamond/mici/Londra-Oscar.jpg\")
Oscarul a mers la Londra\r\nLondra şi Emiratele Arabe Unite au fost stelele anului 2010 în cadrul galei turismului mondial, la ceremonia World Travel Awards (WTA). Capitala Marii Britanii a învins, cu 27 milioane vizitatori, oraşe precum New York, Cape Town, Rio de Janeiro sau Sydney la categoria “World’s Leading Destination”. Emiratele Arabe Unite (UAE) au înregistrat mai multe premii pentru companii de tursim din Dubai şi pentru Etihad Airways (operatorul aerian al anului). În acelaşi timp prinţul Khalid Al Faisal al Arabiei Saudite a fost distins ca personalitatea anului pentru programele de dezvoltare a turismului religios la Meca. Premiul “Femeia Anului” a revenit preşedintei companiei Sixt, Regine Sixt.\r\nWTA 2010 a decis premiile anului trecut după ce a urmărit evoluţia a 5000 de companii din domeniul turismului, din 162 de ţări.

Ce defineşte un hotel avangardist, clasic sau trendy? Pornind de la aceste întrebări Asociaţia hotelurilor boutique (BLLA), pregăteşte un statut clar şi reguli de departajare pentru membri săi.\r\nFondatorul BLLA, Frances Kiradjian, crede că noua clasificare va diferenţia segmentul specific al hotelurilor boutique în cadrul marii industrii a ospitalităţii. “O clasificare specială pentru acest sector va ajuta hotelurile la capitolul marketing, să îşi creeze o imagine puternică. De asemenea va fi de folos clienţilor care vor găsi şi selecta proprietăţi cu trăsături inedite, aspecte care i-au determinat să se orienteze iniţial către hotelurile boutique” a adăugat Kiradjian.\r\nBLLA este prima şi singura asociaţie care şi-a propus să reunească hotelurile boutique şi design din lume, în dorinţa de a promova alternative de cazare unice şi pline de personalitate.\r\n\r\n.............................................................................................................................\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/86/mapamond/mici/hong-kong.jpg\")

Oameni sunt săraci, suspendaţi în timp dar iubesc voia bună, muzica, închinatul, mesele în familie. O ţară fără mall-uri, supermarketuri şi, aparent, fără prea mai frustrări. Găsiţi în paginile următoare motivaţia pentru care să alegeţi drumul mai puţin bătut al Georgiei pentru o vacanţă aventuroasă.\n\nRâul Mtkvari deschide o vale întinsă în centrul ţării fiind flancat de-a lungul său de masivele seducătoare ale Caucazului de Sud şi de Nord. Valea, plină de pomi fructiferi în floare în luna mai, este punctul de pornire spre munţi, spre principalele atracţii ale anticei Colhide (pământul lânii de aur) ori ale Gruziei (denumirea sovietică a ţării). Deşi în Georgia se măreşte pe an ce trece o autostradă excelentă, cea mai bună variantă de călătorie este 4X4, adică în caravană, cu jeep-urile. Asta pentru a putea experimenta căi neumblate, sate uitate de lume, peisaje silenţioase şi, că aşa e la modă acum, cât mai mult specific local. Programele special concepute pentru asemenea destinaţie au 7 zile şi combină într-un mod relaxant condusul pe drum forestier (off-road ca să folosim un cod internaţional) cu vizite inedite şi cu căţăratul pe coclauri.\n\nIstoria lasă urme\n\n\nPlecăm din Tbilisi. Drumul conduce către culmile verzi şi blânde ale Caucazului de Sud. Pădurile alternează cu pajişti şi zone cu o rocă aurie, prăfoasă. Cam la 20 de kilometri de oraş se lasă un drum ce ajunge la muntele Didgori. Aici s-au bătut cândva în secolul al XII-lea georgienii, conduşi de un legendar rege David Întemeietorul, şi turcii selgiucizi. Fostul câmp de război a fost transformat în 1973 într-o culme-monument. Dealul este plin de statui şi săbii mitice, întoarse, înfipte în pământ, lucitoare, ca nişte cruci. Drumul către munte este marcat încă din şosea prin şoimi de fier, care îşi întind aripa în direcţia de urmat. Vântul sună clopotele mici agăţate printre statui, culmile Caucazului îşi schimbă culorile, iar de jur împrejur, pe kilometri întregi nu e nici ţipenie de om.\nÎntorşi în drumul principal un obiectiv clasic este Mtskheta – prima capitală a Georgiei medievale. Centrul localităţii e refăcut pe de-antregul cu fonduri guvernamentale (casele din piatră de râu cu balcoane de lemn ca la catalog). Aici se găseşte Svetitskhoveli, cea mai mare şi mai veche biserică ortodoxă a Georgiei. Frescele în stil bizantin îi împodobesc pereţii amintind şi de faptul că locul este plin de mormintele regilor georgieni. De-a lungul văii un popas interesant este şi Gori, oraşul lui Stalin. Există bulevardul cu numele său, un muzeu care îi este dedicat. Deşi, pentru amuzament unii localnici îi păstrează un portret în bucătărie ori pe hol, statuia din centrul oraşului a fost dată jos acum 2 ani.\n\nSă închinăm pentru Georgia\nDin Bakuriani, o staţiune de ski faimoasă pe vremea ruşilor dar cu aer de abandon acum, se merge pe un drum forestier către două sate, opuse ca şi înfăţişare. Andeziti arată ca după război. Fabrica e în paragină (ca mai toate celelalte), în drumul noroios stau încleiate camioane verzi şi case placate cu carton, vaci şi porci. O baracă de lemn e crâşma, cu firmă colorată, intitulată cu haz dar şi subânţeles „La lacrima nevesti-mi”. Mai sus Tori e un sat tipic de munte, cu case în întregime de lemn. Pământul se ară cu plugul iar plăcinta se face la cuptor cu lemne. Moşul Valiko lasă treaba, scoate pahare şi cornul de băutură şi pune repede masa pentru oaspeţi. Tradiţia spune că un georgian adevărat e mereu bucuros de oaspeţi şi, mai ales, trebuie să ştie „tamada” – arta închinatului. Se bea cha-cha (distilat din struguri) şi se închină cu emfază, cu fraze cât mai artistic alcătuite: „pentru Georgia, ţara mea. Pentru casa mea şi cel mai frumos peisaj din lume” (din balconul de lemn, peste pajiştea udă şi pădure se întind crestele încă înzăpezite ale Caucazului).\n\nÎn Georgia se poate închina ore întregi, o masă în familie, chiar şi la restaurant, ţinând mult. Inevitabil se bea în cinstea oaspeţilor, a soţiilor îngăduitoare etc. Mâncarea este extraordinar de gustoasă. Carnea carne, cartofii cartofi! Se mănâncă mult miel, tot felul de frigărui înfăşate în lipie fină, un fel de supă cu carne într-o punguţă de aluat, totul se condimentează iar coriandrul nu lipseşte din preparate. „Phali” e încă ceva delicios: o tocătură făcută bulete în care se amestecă tot felul de verdeţuri (spanac, vinete) şi se asezonează cu suc de rodie.\n\nArgument pentru aventură\nSpecificul programelor 4X4, pe lângă faptul că ai acces la locuri izolate, este dat de un grad ridicat de aventură şi libertate de mişcare asezonată cu imprevizibil. În fiecare zi se petrec cam două – trei ore în maşină, conducând. Drumurile forestiere, pline de noroi sau drumurile naţionale, pline de gropi, te obligă să-ţi exersezi aptitudini în ale şofatului. Jeep-urile sunt dotate cu busolă electronică (încorporată în oglinda retrovizoare), cu încălzire pentru scaune, staţii de emisie recepţie etc. Ghidul care însoţeşte caravana întotdeauna este cel care avertizează asupra specificului drumului ales. Imprevizibil e la tot pasul: mai cade un copac şi trebuie mutat din drum, se mai împotmoleşte roata şi afară plouă, se blochează o şosea şi trebuie să intri într-un bar să te încălzeşti şi aici cunoşti armeni, ruşi, turci şi te pui la masă cu ei. Restul orelor te lasă să experimentezi: vizite în casele oamenilor, opriri la stână, în piaţa oraşului, plimbări relaxate prin localităţi sau câteva ore de mers pe munte, pe trasee de dificultate scăzută.\n\nDe la Kazbegi la cascada şarpelui\n\nUna din cele mai frumoase zile în Georgia am prins-o în drum spre Caucazul de Nord. În Valea Argavi se conduce pe lângă lacul de baraj Zhinvali, în Gudauri (o staţiune de ski aerisită) încă se poate skia. De aici drumul trece muntele prin pasul Jvari (2379 m) iar continuarea, înspre graniţa cu Rusia, te lasă fără cuvinte. Vârfurile Caucazului, de la 3.000 la 5.000 de metri, acaparează privirile. Albul zăpezii este amestecat cu nisipul adus din Sahara de o furtună recentă. Ploile au colorat muntele în fâşii galbene!\nDin Stepantsminda se intră în Parcul Natural Kazbegi şi se face off road pentru a ajunge la cascada Gveleti (a şarpelui) - cam 30 minute de urcat pe jos. Gveleti este ultima localitate până la graniţa cu Rusia. Tot în Stepantsminda vedeţi şi imaginea comercială cea mai cunoscută în turismul georgian: deasupra localităţii, pe un platou flancat de nori şi zăpadă, este Mânăstirea Gergeti (Chminda Sameba). Femei ale locului pe nume Mariami, Kesaria, Tekla, Elene, Irina, Ketevani, Anuka ori Natia urcă drumul noroios în fiecare zi de slujbă ca să primească binecuvântarea ortodoxă. Soţii lor, fie că sunt Giorgi, David, Vakhtangi, Sandro, Nikolozi, Levani ori Tengo, le urmează.

Oameni sunt săraci, suspendaţi în timp dar iubesc voia bună, muzica, închinatul, mesele în familie. O ţară fără mall-uri, supermarketuri şi, aparent, fără prea mai frustrări. Găsiţi în paginile următoare motivaţia pentru care să alegeţi drumul mai puţin bătut al Georgiei pentru o vacanţă aventuroasă.\r\n\r\nRâul Mtkvari deschide o vale întinsă în centrul ţării fiind flancat de-a lungul său de masivele seducătoare ale Caucazului de Sud şi de Nord. Valea, plină de pomi fructiferi în floare în luna mai, este punctul de pornire spre munţi, spre principalele atracţii ale anticei Colhide (pământul lânii de aur) ori ale Gruziei (denumirea sovietică a ţării). Deşi în Georgia se măreşte pe an ce trece o autostradă excelentă, cea mai bună variantă de călătorie este 4X4, adică în caravană, cu jeep-urile. Asta pentru a putea experimenta căi neumblate, sate uitate de lume, peisaje silenţioase şi, că aşa e la modă acum, cât mai mult specific local. Programele special concepute pentru asemenea destinaţie au 7 zile şi combină într-un mod relaxant condusul pe drum forestier (off-road ca să folosim un cod internaţional) cu vizite inedite şi cu căţăratul pe coclauri.\r\n\r\nIstoria lasă urme\r\n\r\n\r\nPlecăm din Tbilisi. Drumul conduce către culmile verzi şi blânde ale Caucazului de Sud. Pădurile alternează cu pajişti şi zone cu o rocă aurie, prăfoasă. Cam la 20 de kilometri de oraş se lasă un drum ce ajunge la muntele Didgori. Aici s-au bătut cândva în secolul al XII-lea georgienii, conduşi de un legendar rege David Întemeietorul, şi turcii selgiucizi. Fostul câmp de război a fost transformat în 1973 într-o culme-monument. Dealul este plin de statui şi săbii mitice, întoarse, înfipte în pământ, lucitoare, ca nişte cruci. Drumul către munte este marcat încă din şosea prin şoimi de fier, care îşi întind aripa în direcţia de urmat. Vântul sună clopotele mici agăţate printre statui, culmile Caucazului îşi schimbă culorile, iar de jur împrejur, pe kilometri întregi nu e nici ţipenie de om.\r\nÎntorşi în drumul principal un obiectiv clasic este Mtskheta – prima capitală a Georgiei medievale. Centrul localităţii e refăcut pe de-antregul cu fonduri guvernamentale (casele din piatră de râu cu balcoane de lemn ca la catalog). Aici se găseşte Svetitskhoveli, cea mai mare şi mai veche biserică ortodoxă a Georgiei. Frescele în stil bizantin îi împodobesc pereţii amintind şi de faptul că locul este plin de mormintele regilor georgieni. De-a lungul văii un popas interesant este şi Gori, oraşul lui Stalin. Există bulevardul cu numele său, un muzeu care îi este dedicat. Deşi, pentru amuzament unii localnici îi păstrează un portret în bucătărie ori pe hol, statuia din centrul oraşului a fost dată jos acum 2 ani.\r\n\r\nSă închinăm pentru Georgia\r\nDin Bakuriani, o staţiune de ski faimoasă pe vremea ruşilor dar cu aer de abandon acum, se merge pe un drum forestier către două sate, opuse ca şi înfăţişare. Andeziti arată ca după război. Fabrica e în paragină (ca mai toate celelalte), în drumul noroios stau încleiate camioane verzi şi case placate cu carton, vaci şi porci. O baracă de lemn e crâşma, cu firmă colorată, intitulată cu haz dar şi subânţeles „La lacrima nevesti-mi”. Mai sus Tori e un sat tipic de munte, cu case în întregime de lemn. Pământul se ară cu plugul iar plăcinta se face la cuptor cu lemne. Moşul Valiko lasă treaba, scoate pahare şi cornul de băutură şi pune repede masa pentru oaspeţi. Tradiţia spune că un georgian adevărat e mereu bucuros de oaspeţi şi, mai ales, trebuie să ştie „tamada” – arta închinatului. Se bea cha-cha (distilat din struguri) şi se închină cu emfază, cu fraze cât mai artistic alcătuite: „pentru Georgia, ţara mea. Pentru casa mea şi cel mai frumos peisaj din lume” (din balconul de lemn, peste pajiştea udă şi pădure se întind crestele încă înzăpezite ale Caucazului).\r\n\r\nÎn Georgia se poate închina ore întregi, o masă în familie, chiar şi la restaurant, ţinând mult. Inevitabil se bea în cinstea oaspeţilor, a soţiilor îngăduitoare etc. Mâncarea este extraordinar de gustoasă. Carnea carne, cartofii cartofi! Se mănâncă mult miel, tot felul de frigărui înfăşate în lipie fină, un fel de supă cu carne într-o punguţă de aluat, totul se condimentează iar coriandrul nu lipseşte din preparate. „Phali” e încă ceva delicios: o tocătură făcută bulete în care se amestecă tot felul de verdeţuri (spanac, vinete) şi se asezonează cu suc de rodie.\r\n\r\nArgument pentru aventură\r\nSpecificul programelor 4X4, pe lângă faptul că ai acces la locuri izolate, este dat de un grad ridicat de aventură şi libertate de mişcare asezonată cu imprevizibil. În fiecare zi se petrec cam două – trei ore în maşină, conducând. Drumurile forestiere, pline de noroi sau drumurile naţionale, pline de gropi, te obligă să-ţi exersezi aptitudini în ale şofatului. Jeep-urile sunt dotate cu busolă electronică (încorporată în oglinda retrovizoare), cu încălzire pentru scaune, staţii de emisie recepţie etc. Ghidul care însoţeşte caravana întotdeauna este cel care avertizează asupra specificului drumului ales. Imprevizibil e la tot pasul: mai cade un copac şi trebuie mutat din drum, se mai împotmoleşte roata şi afară plouă, se blochează o şosea şi trebuie să intri într-un bar să te încălzeşti şi aici cunoşti armeni, ruşi, turci şi te pui la masă cu ei. Restul orelor te lasă să experimentezi: vizite în casele oamenilor, opriri la stână, în piaţa oraşului, plimbări relaxate prin localităţi sau câteva ore de mers pe munte, pe trasee de dificultate scăzută.\r\n\r\nDe la Kazbegi la cascada şarpelui\r\n\r\nUna din cele mai frumoase zile în Georgia am prins-o în drum spre Caucazul de Nord. În Valea Argavi se conduce pe lângă lacul de baraj Zhinvali, în Gudauri (o staţiune de ski aerisită) încă se poate skia. De aici drumul trece muntele prin pasul Jvari (2379 m) iar continuarea, înspre graniţa cu Rusia, te lasă fără cuvinte. Vârfurile Caucazului, de la 3.000 la 5.000 de metri, acaparează privirile. Albul zăpezii este amestecat cu nisipul adus din Sahara de o furtună recentă. Ploile au colorat muntele în fâşii galbene!\r\nDin Stepantsminda se intră în Parcul Natural Kazbegi şi se face off road pentru a ajunge la cascada Gveleti (a şarpelui) - cam 30 minute de urcat pe jos. Gveleti este ultima localitate până la graniţa cu Rusia. Tot în Stepantsminda vedeţi şi imaginea comercială cea mai cunoscută în turismul georgian: deasupra localităţii, pe un platou flancat de nori şi zăpadă, este Mânăstirea Gergeti (Chminda Sameba). Femei ale locului pe nume Mariami, Kesaria, Tekla, Elene, Irina, Ketevani, Anuka ori Natia urcă drumul noroios în fiecare zi de slujbă ca să primească binecuvântarea ortodoxă. Soţii lor, fie că sunt Giorgi, David, Vakhtangi, Sandro, Nikolozi, Levani ori Tengo, le urmează. Copii călăresc fără şa iar un ultim element de specific local pe care-l amintesc: ochii mari, rotunzi, albastru-cenuşiu câteodată.\r\n\r\nINFO:\r\n\r\n- Momentan Georgia produce apă minerală, cha-cha, exportă vin.\r\n-Ţara are în jur de 5 milioane locuitori iar noul brand al capitalei, vizibil în aeroport şi centrele de informare turistică este „Tbilisi – the city that loves you”.\r\n- Autorităţile aşteaptă în 2012 un trafic turistic de aproape 3 milioane persoane.\r\n\r\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul RINA ADVENTURES\r\n.............................................................................................................................\r\nCAPITALE CULTURALE EUROPENE\r\nUE ne trimite la Tallinn şi Turku\r\n\r\nNordul european îşi desface vălul fascinaţiei turistice: în 2011 oraşele Turku (Finlanda) şi Tallinn (capitala Estoniei) au devenit Capitale ale culturii europene.\r\nSub brandul “poveşti ale ţărmului” specialiştii estoni au realizat o campanie de promovare rafinată, de o eleganţă silenţioasă, ca şi ţara însăşi. Estonia are o populaţie care depăşeşte puţin milionul de locuitori, dar Tallinn este una din cele mai frumoase capitale ale nordului. Cetatea sa medievală, cu bastioane solide şi case vechi de sute de ani concentrează activităţile turistice şi culturale ale anului. Printre cele mai interesante se numără: Festivalul filmului mut, Festivalul de muzică barocă sau Festivalul sculpturilor de gheaţă (cu o secţiune specială de statui... în flăcări!). Înainte să vă planificaţi deci vizita pe anul acesta, dacă alegeţi Estonia, informaţi-vă şi de pe www.tallinn2011.ee/eng.\r\nDin Tallinn puteţi lua feribotul şi traversa Baltica pentru a ajunge în Finlanda (Helsinki). De acolo vă îndreptaţi spre Turku, cel mai vechi oraş al ţării. Destinaţia este cunoscută călătorilor precum oraşul oficial al Crăciunului. Printre atracţiile special gândite pentru 2011 se numără cea mai mare expoziţie de fotografie contemporană organizată vreodată în Finlanda, spectacole neconvenţionale (precum “Istoria absurdă a operei”) sau seri de dans finlandez-japonez. Oraşul implică în cele peste 4000 de evenimente ale anului în jur de 12.000 artişti locali. Pentru mai multe idei căutaţi şi pe www.turku2011.fi/en.\r\nCapitala europeană a culturii este cel mai cunoscut eveniment cultural în UE. Locaţiile sunt selectate anual, ajungându-se deja la 40 de oraşe ce au deţinut acest titlu. Printre ele s-a numărat şi oraşul Sibiu.\r\nSINZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n.............................................................................................................................\r\nOscarul a mers la Londra\r\nLondra şi Emiratele Arabe Unite au fost stelele anului 2010 în cadrul galei turismului mondial, la ceremonia World Travel Awards (WTA).

Emiratele Arabe Unite (UAE) au înregistrat mai multe premii pentru companii de tursim din Dubai şi pentru Etihad Airways (operatorul aerian al anului). În acelaşi timp prinţul Khalid Al Faisal al Arabiei Saudite a fost distins ca personalitatea anului pentru programele de dezvoltare a turismului religios la Meca.

De asemenea va fi de folos clienţilor care vor găsi şi selecta proprietăţi cu trăsături inedite, aspecte care i-au determinat să se orienteze iniţial către hotelurile boutique” a adăugat Kiradjian.\r\nBLLA este prima şi singura asociaţie care şi-a propus să reunească hotelurile boutique şi design din lume, în dorinţa de a promova alternative de cazare unice şi pline de personalitate.\r\n\r\n.............................................................................................................................\r\nHong Kong şi-a cucerit vizitatorii Fostă colonie britanică, teritoriu ce aparţine acum Chinei, Hong Kong figurează pe lista preferinţelor turistice, la mai multe capitole.

September 17 – 25 Romania will be the host of a unique event: the 53rd World Congress of the International Federation of Journalists and Tourism Editors (FIJET), its theme being „Cultural patrimony reflected by the travel media”. 250 international guests are expected. The road will start with the Palace of Parliament, Cotroceni Museum and will continue in the country, over 1000 kilometers, with Bacău, famous Cotnari cellars, Suceava, Moldoviţa (FIJET Golden Apple distinction in 1975), Suceviţa, Voroneţ and Gura Humorului Monasteries. Ciocăneşti, the village of the area promoted as a living icon of local traditions, will be followed by the Dracula Castle and Hotel in Tihuţa (Bistriţa County). Sighişoara will host a special medieval evening; Sibiu will show a traditional wedding. Bran Castle, the palaces of Sinaia (Peles and Pelişor) as well as new landmarks of Romanian tourism as Cantacuzino palace in Buşteni are to be seen.\r\n\r\nThe FIJET Romania Press Club and The Ministry of Development and Tourism are the organizers of the event. Two years ago the Romanian press club convinced FIJET to give the Golden Apple distinction to three Romanian concepts: Mărginimea Sibiului, The Danube Delta and Blue Air carrier. It has been a unique moment in the history of the organization as well as in the history of the Romanian tourism.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Sighisoara-engl.jpg\" "\\"Sighisoara")

This is the idea that a delegation of the ministry proposed in Mombasa (Kenya), where the works of the 90th session of the Executive Council of the World Tourism Organization took place. The new code will complete the existing similar document. The idea generated favorable opinions, due to the fact that the practical point of view will lead to better position of OMT in the world travel industry. On the event agenda other themes concerning tourism development until 2030 where listed as well.

Oameni sunt săraci, suspendaţi în timp dar iubesc voia bună, muzica, închinatul, mesele în familie. O ţară fără mall-uri, supermarketuri şi, aparent, fără prea mai frustrări. Găsiţi în paginile următoare motivaţia pentru care să alegeţi drumul mai puţin bătut al Georgiei pentru o vacanţă aventuroasă.\r\n\r\nRâul Mtkvari deschide o vale întinsă în centrul ţării fiind flancat de-a lungul său de masivele seducătoare ale Caucazului de Sud şi de Nord. Valea, plină de pomi fructiferi în floare în luna mai, este punctul de pornire spre munţi, spre principalele atracţii ale anticei Colhide (pământul lânii de aur) ori ale Gruziei (denumirea sovietică a ţării). Deşi în Georgia se măreşte pe an ce trece o autostradă excelentă, cea mai bună variantă de călătorie este 4X4, adică în caravană, cu jeep-urile. Asta pentru a putea experimenta căi neumblate, sate uitate de lume, peisaje silenţioase şi, că aşa e la modă acum, cât mai mult specific local. Programele special concepute pentru asemenea destinaţie au 7 zile şi combină într-un mod relaxant condusul pe drum forestier (off-road ca să folosim un cod internaţional) cu vizite inedite şi cu căţăratul pe coclauri.\r\n\r\nIstoria lasă urme\r\n\r\n\r\nPlecăm din Tbilisi. Drumul conduce către culmile verzi şi blânde ale Caucazului de Sud. Pădurile alternează cu pajişti şi zone cu o rocă aurie, prăfoasă. Cam la 20 de kilometri de oraş se lasă un drum ce ajunge la muntele Didgori. Aici s-au bătut cândva în secolul al XII-lea georgienii, conduşi de un legendar rege David Întemeietorul, şi turcii selgiucizi. Fostul câmp de război a fost transformat în 1973 într-o culme-monument. Dealul este plin de statui şi săbii mitice, întoarse, înfipte în pământ, lucitoare, ca nişte cruci. Drumul către munte este marcat încă din şosea prin şoimi de fier, care îşi întind aripa în direcţia de urmat. Vântul sună clopotele mici agăţate printre statui, culmile Caucazului îşi schimbă culorile, iar de jur împrejur, pe kilometri întregi nu e nici ţipenie de om.\r\nÎntorşi în drumul principal un obiectiv clasic este Mtskheta – prima capitală a Georgiei medievale. Centrul localităţii e refăcut pe de-antregul cu fonduri guvernamentale (casele din piatră de râu cu balcoane de lemn ca la catalog). Aici se găseşte Svetitskhoveli, cea mai mare şi mai veche biserică ortodoxă a Georgiei. Frescele în stil bizantin îi împodobesc pereţii amintind şi de faptul că locul este plin de mormintele regilor georgieni. De-a lungul văii un popas interesant este şi Gori, oraşul lui Stalin. Există bulevardul cu numele său, un muzeu care îi este dedicat. Deşi, pentru amuzament unii localnici îi păstrează un portret în bucătărie ori pe hol, statuia din centrul oraşului a fost dată jos acum 2 ani.\r\n\r\nSă închinăm pentru Georgia\r\nDin Bakuriani, o staţiune de ski faimoasă pe vremea ruşilor dar cu aer de abandon acum, se merge pe un drum forestier către două sate, opuse ca şi înfăţişare. Andeziti arată ca după război. Fabrica e în paragină (ca mai toate celelalte), în drumul noroios stau încleiate camioane verzi şi case placate cu carton, vaci şi porci. O baracă de lemn e crâşma, cu firmă colorată, intitulată cu haz dar şi subânţeles „La lacrima nevesti-mi”. Mai sus Tori e un sat tipic de munte, cu case în întregime de lemn. Pământul se ară cu plugul iar plăcinta se face la cuptor cu lemne. Moşul Valiko lasă treaba, scoate pahare şi cornul de băutură şi pune repede masa pentru oaspeţi. Tradiţia spune că un georgian adevărat e mereu bucuros de oaspeţi şi, mai ales, trebuie să ştie „tamada” – arta închinatului. Se bea cha-cha (distilat din struguri) şi se închină cu emfază, cu fraze cât mai artistic alcătuite: „pentru Georgia, ţara mea. Pentru casa mea şi cel mai frumos peisaj din lume” (din balconul de lemn, peste pajiştea udă şi pădure se întind crestele încă înzăpezite ale Caucazului).\r\n\r\nÎn Georgia se poate închina ore întregi, o masă în familie, chiar şi la restaurant, ţinând mult. Inevitabil se bea în cinstea oaspeţilor, a soţiilor îngăduitoare etc. Mâncarea este extraordinar de gustoasă. Carnea carne, cartofii cartofi! Se mănâncă mult miel, tot felul de frigărui înfăşate în lipie fină, un fel de supă cu carne într-o punguţă de aluat, totul se condimentează iar coriandrul nu lipseşte din preparate. „Phali” e încă ceva delicios: o tocătură făcută bulete în care se amestecă tot felul de verdeţuri (spanac, vinete) şi se asezonează cu suc de rodie.\r\n\r\nArgument pentru aventură\r\nSpecificul programelor 4X4, pe lângă faptul că ai acces la locuri izolate, este dat de un grad ridicat de aventură şi libertate de mişcare asezonată cu imprevizibil. În fiecare zi se petrec cam două – trei ore în maşină, conducând. Drumurile forestiere, pline de noroi sau drumurile naţionale, pline de gropi, te obligă să-ţi exersezi aptitudini în ale şofatului. Jeep-urile sunt dotate cu busolă electronică (încorporată în oglinda retrovizoare), cu încălzire pentru scaune, staţii de emisie recepţie etc. Ghidul care însoţeşte caravana întotdeauna este cel care avertizează asupra specificului drumului ales. Imprevizibil e la tot pasul: mai cade un copac şi trebuie mutat din drum, se mai împotmoleşte roata şi afară plouă, se blochează o şosea şi trebuie să intri într-un bar să te încălzeşti şi aici cunoşti armeni, ruşi, turci şi te pui la masă cu ei. Restul orelor te lasă să experimentezi: vizite în casele oamenilor, opriri la stână, în piaţa oraşului, plimbări relaxate prin localităţi sau câteva ore de mers pe munte, pe trasee de dificultate scăzută.\r\n\r\nDe la Kazbegi la cascada şarpelui\r\n\r\nUna din cele mai frumoase zile în Georgia am prins-o în drum spre Caucazul de Nord. În Valea Argavi se conduce pe lângă lacul de baraj Zhinvali, în Gudauri (o staţiune de ski aerisită) încă se poate skia. De aici drumul trece muntele prin pasul Jvari (2379 m) iar continuarea, înspre graniţa cu Rusia, te lasă fără cuvinte. Vârfurile Caucazului, de la 3.000 la 5.000 de metri, acaparează privirile. Albul zăpezii este amestecat cu nisipul adus din Sahara de o furtună recentă. Ploile au colorat muntele în fâşii galbene!\r\nDin Stepantsminda se intră în Parcul Natural Kazbegi şi se face off road pentru a ajunge la cascada Gveleti (a şarpelui) - cam 30 minute de urcat pe jos. Gveleti este ultima localitate până la graniţa cu Rusia. Tot în Stepantsminda vedeţi şi imaginea comercială cea mai cunoscută în turismul georgian: deasupra localităţii, pe un platou flancat de nori şi zăpadă, este Mânăstirea Gergeti (Chminda Sameba). Femei ale locului pe nume Mariami, Kesaria, Tekla, Elene, Irina, Ketevani, Anuka ori Natia urcă drumul noroios în fiecare zi de slujbă ca să primească binecuvântarea ortodoxă. Soţii lor, fie că sunt Giorgi, David, Vakhtangi, Sandro, Nikolozi, Levani ori Tengo, le urmează. Copii călăresc fără şa iar un ultim element de specific local pe care-l amintesc: ochii mari, rotunzi, albastru-cenuşiu câteodată.\r\n\r\nINFO:\r\n\r\n- Momentan Georgia produce apă minerală, cha-cha, exportă vin.\r\n-Ţara are în jur de 5 milioane locuitori iar noul brand al capitalei, vizibil în aeroport şi centrele de informare turistică este „Tbilisi – the city that loves you”.\r\n- Autorităţile aşteaptă în 2012 un trafic turistic de aproape 3 milioane persoane.\r\n\r\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul RINA ADVENTURES\r\n.............................................................................................................................\r\nCAPITALE CULTURALE EUROPENE\r\nUE ne trimite la Tallinn şi Turku\r\n\r\n Nordul european îşi desface vălul fascinaţiei turistice: în 2011 oraşele Turku (Finlanda) şi Tallinn (capitala Estoniei) au devenit Capitale ale culturii europene.\r\nSub brandul “poveşti ale ţărmului” specialiştii estoni au realizat o campanie de promovare rafinată, de o eleganţă silenţioasă, ca şi ţara însăşi. Estonia are o populaţie care depăşeşte puţin milionul de locuitori, dar Tallinn este una din cele mai frumoase capitale ale nordului. Cetatea sa medievală, cu bastioane solide şi case vechi de sute de ani concentrează activităţile turistice şi culturale ale anului. Printre cele mai interesante se numără: Festivalul filmului mut, Festivalul de muzică barocă sau Festivalul sculpturilor de gheaţă (cu o secţiune specială de statui... în flăcări!). Înainte să vă planificaţi deci vizita pe anul acesta, dacă alegeţi Estonia, informaţi-vă şi de pe www.tallinn2011.ee/eng.\r\nDin Tallinn puteţi lua feribotul şi traversa Baltica pentru a ajunge în Finlanda (Helsinki). De acolo vă îndreptaţi spre Turku, cel mai vechi oraş al ţării. Destinaţia este cunoscută călătorilor precum oraşul oficial al Crăciunului. Printre atracţiile special gândite pentru 2011 se numără cea mai mare expoziţie de fotografie contemporană organizată vreodată în Finlanda, spectacole neconvenţionale (precum “Istoria absurdă a operei”) sau seri de dans finlandez-japonez. Oraşul implică în cele peste 4000 de evenimente ale anului în jur de 12.000 artişti locali. Pentru mai multe idei căutaţi şi pe www.turku2011.fi/en.\r\nCapitala europeană a culturii este cel mai cunoscut eveniment cultural în UE. Locaţiile sunt selectate anual, ajungându-se deja la 40 de oraşe ce au deţinut acest titlu. Printre ele s-a numărat şi oraşul Sibiu.\r\nSINZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n.............................................................................................................................\r\nOscarul a mers la Londra\r\nLondra şi Emiratele Arabe Unite au fost stelele anului 2010 în cadrul galei turismului mondial, la ceremonia World Travel Awards (WTA). Capitala Marii Britanii a învins, cu 27 milioane vizitatori, oraşe precum New York, Cape Town, Rio de Janeiro sau Sydney la categoria “World’s Leading Destination”. Emiratele Arabe Unite (UAE) au înregistrat mai multe premii pentru companii de tursim din Dubai şi pentru Etihad Airways (operatorul aerian al anului). În acelaşi timp prinţul Khalid Al Faisal al Arabiei Saudite a fost distins ca personalitatea anului pentru programele de dezvoltare a turismului religios la Meca. Premiul “Femeia Anului” a revenit preşedintei companiei Sixt, Regine Sixt.\r\nWTA 2010 a decis premiile anului trecut după ce a urmărit evoluţia a 5000 de companii din domeniul turismului, din 162 de ţări. Câştigătorii au reieşit în urma voturilor exprimate on-line. WTA este o gală care se organizează anual, de 17 ani, iar premiile sunt considerate Oscarul industriei turistice mondiale.\r\n\r\n.............................................................................................................................\r\n\r\nCe are unic fiecare boutique!\r\n\r\nCum putem decide standardul unei locaţii a cărei descriere este în fapt o apreciere de gust? Ce defineşte un hotel avangardist, clasic sau trendy? Pornind de la aceste întrebări Asociaţia hotelurilor boutique (BLLA), pregăteşte un statut clar şi reguli de departajare pentru membri săi.\r\nFondatorul BLLA, Frances Kiradjian, crede că noua clasificare va diferenţia segmentul specific al hotelurilor boutique în cadrul marii industrii a ospitalităţii. “O clasificare specială pentru acest sector va ajuta hotelurile la capitolul marketing, să îşi creeze o imagine puternică. De asemenea va fi de folos clienţilor care vor găsi şi selecta proprietăţi cu trăsături inedite, aspecte care i-au determinat să se orienteze iniţial către hotelurile boutique” a adăugat Kiradjian.\r\nBLLA este prima şi singura asociaţie care şi-a propus să reunească hotelurile boutique şi design din lume, în dorinţa de a promova alternative de cazare unice şi pline de personalitate.\r\n\r\n.............................................................................................................................\r\nHong Kong şi-a cucerit vizitatorii Fostă colonie britanică, teritoriu ce aparţine acum Chinei, Hong Kong figurează pe lista preferinţelor turistice, la mai multe capitole. Este insula favorită, ocupă locul trei la capitolul oraşe ale globului, primul loc la secţiunea Linii aeriene pentru business şi are trei hoteluri incluse în Top 100! Clasamentul a fost întocmit de revista Conde Nast Traveller iar destinaţiile preferate au fost premiate în cadrul trofeelor Readers Travel Awards, la Londra.\r\nHong Kong (94,77 de puncte din 100) a fost urmat la capitolul insule de: Sicilia, Maldive, arhipelagul Cicladelor, Baleare, Corsica, Cuba, Seychelles, Santa Lucia, Creta şi Mauritius. Favorita anului trecut, insula Bali, s-a clasat abia pe locul 16.\r\n .....................................................................................\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n ','MAPAMOND NR.86 (MAI 2011) ','','inherit','open','open','','368-revision-4','','','2011-07-10 23:31:07','2011-07-10 21:31:07','',368,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/07/10/368-revision-4/',0,'revision','',0),(378,1,'2011-07-10 23:59:50','2011-07-10 21:59:50','TURISMUL MEDICAL -o şansă pentru incoming\nUn studiu al Insight Market Research Solutions, estimează că valoarea pieţei de turism medical din România se ridică la 250 de milioane de dolari şi are un potenţial de dublare până în 2014.

Domnia sa a precizat că investiţie se află de abia la jumătate de drum, în viitorul apropiat urmând să se alăture celor două turnuri încă două. În final complexul de expoziţii şi spaţii pentru birouri, va contribui, şi asta deja se simte de pe acum, la remodelarea întregii zone de afaceri de aici.\r\n\r\nSorin Dencescu, preşedintele companiei Kron Tour, contractorul general al spaţiilor de expoziţii de aici şi liderul reprezentativ al ANAT pentru Regiunea Centru, a precizat la deschidere că altă premieră este marcată de faptul că odată cu această ediţie Târgul de turism, care a reunit peste 60 de participanţi, are şi reprezentativitate internaţională. Aici şi-au expus ofertele şi proiectele de investiţii, direct sau prin reprezentanţe ori birouri Malta, Turcia, Ungaria, Grecia, Germania, Franţa etc.\r\n\r\nÎn ceea ce priveşte placa turnantă a vacanţelor ea s-a învârtit destul de bine la această ediţie. Chiar şi în condiţiile de criză, datorită unor preţuri atractive şi a ofertelor cu discount, românii vor continua să călătorească. Travel agenţii se arată optimişti pentru acest an, dar afirmaţiile sunt responsabile şi temperate. Multe agenţii şi-au deplasat echipe din Capitală, interesate să ia pulsul pieţii din afara Bucureştiului. Julian Andrei, directorul general al Blue Line International, crede că vom asista la o creştere pe destinaţii ca Turcia, Spania şi Grecia, tendinţele exprimându-se încă de pe acum. Dan Goicea, unul dintre liderii agenţiei Cocktail Holidays, ne-a declarat că testările publicului braşovean arată un apetit în creştere pentru cumpărarea de vacanţe. Interesantă este opţiunea pentru tururi culturale, de una sau două săptămână în Europa. La rândul ei Cosmina Vladu, reprezentanta agenţiei Presige Tours, crede că în această vară charterele vor fi la putere, şi ele vor reveni ca număr şi perioadă de zbor, la situaţie din vremurile bune. Adică avem deja chartere care merg bine, din luna martie - Spania se conturează ca o destinaţie de succes la acest capitol, fiind ajudată şi de pachetele Senioren Travel +55. În aceeaşi poziţie favorabilă se află şi Turcia, care ar putea să fie frecventată până în luna noiembrie. Corina Martin, preşedintele ANAT, prezent la inagurare a subliniat că şi destinaţiile turistice interne vor fi la mare căutare în acest an. Programe speciale ca Litoralul pentru toţi, O săptămână la munte ori Vacanţe la ţară, au stimulat prin preţuri avantajoase interesul pentru vacanţe al turistului român.\r\n\r\nCă aşa este s-a văzut şi la ştandul Hotelului Alpin din Poiana Braşov care s-a redeschis cu doar câteva zile înainte. Aici au avut loc demonstraţii de pe segmentul Spa, asta deoarece noul Alpin Resort Hotel deţine un centru complex de punere în formă, beauty şi întreţinere. După cum ne-a precizat Monica Danzer, directorul de marketing şi vânzări, complexul a fost modernizat şi adus la standardul de 5 stele în urma unei investiţii de 15 milioane de euro. În centrul Vitarium Spa, asta e denumirea sa, s-au investit peste 700.000 de euro. De la acesta se aşteaptă o creştere a veniturilor complexului turistic cu peste 20%. La rândul să Alina Dominte, managerul Spa-ului, a mai adăugat că el este amenajat pe o suprafaţă de 800 de metri pătraţi. Aici puteţi să vă răsfăţaţi apelând la unul dintre cele 12 pachete de relaxare şi întreţinere, de la ritualuri senzoriale până la alchimii rafinate care îţi vor reda echilibrul psiho-fizic, energia şi pofta de viaţă.\r\n\r\nTot despre pofta de viaţă, privită dintr-o perspectivă administrativă, a vorbit şi George Scripcaru, primarul municipiului Braşov. Instituţia a fost şi este alături de ANAT, “principalul promotor al înscrierii Târgului pe harta turismului de evenimente. Mai mult, ne propunem ca Braşovul să devină liderul acestei pieţe în scurt timp!”. La acelaşi lucru se gândeşte şi Christian Macedonschi, preşedintele Asociaţiei pentru Promovarea şi Dezvoltarea Turismului din Judeţul Braşov, care ne-a vorbit despre programul de evenimente ce va fi derulat în acest an. Impresionant. Primul, după acest Târg, va fi Conferinţa hotelieră şi de turism din Transilvania, care se va întâmpla între 8 şi 9 iunie la Braşov. Au fost invitaţi speakeri din Austria, Germania Spania şi România. Aici vor fi abordate tematici de interes din domeniul turistic şi al ospitalităţii, privitoare la formarea profesională pe segmentul HoReCa, a Clusterelor turistice ce vor aduce o plus valoare industriei turistice autohtone, a rolului cardurilor turistice, la rolul managementului de destinaţie. De asemenea, va avea loc şi lansarea oficială a cursului de gătit în aer liber – Mobile cooking.\r\n\r\nMai adăugăm că în agenda de evenimente a Târgului de turism a fost lansat volumul “Cine lasă uşile deschise în turism!”, ce-a de-a 10-a carte a scriitorului Marian Constantinescu, au avut loc demonstraţii gastronomice şi prezentări ale somelierilor, consolidate de Dumitru Burtea, preşedintele Euro-Toques Romania, respectiv Doru Dumitrescu, o figură marcantă a mişcării someleriei din ţara noastră. Traveller Magazin a fost unul dintre partenerii media importanţi ai Transylvania Tourism Fair şi este unul dintre partenerii media care consolidează, pe tot parcursul acestui an evenimentele organizate de către Asociaţia de Promovare şi Dezvoltare a Turismului din judeţul Braşov (APDTB).\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU','REDESCOPERA ROMANIA NR.86 (MAI 2011) ','','inherit','open','open','','380-revision-3','','','2011-07-11 00:08:47','2011-07-10 22:08:47','',380,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/07/11/380-revision-3/',0,'revision','',0),(385,1,'2011-07-11 00:12:59','2011-07-10 22:12:59','TRANSPORTURI NR.86 (MAI 2011) \r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/86/transporturi/mici/Blue-Air-Sherif-Ussama-si-Eduard-Irimia.jpg\")

Specialiştii Asociaţiei Internationale a Transportatorilor Aerieni (IATA) se arată deosebit de încrezători în prognozele făcute pentru intervalul ce se va încheia în 2014. Ei estimează că numărul pasagerilor companiilor aeriene va ajunge la 3,3 miliarde pe an, în 2014, cifra cu 32% mai mare faţă de nivelul de 2,5 miliarde înregistrat în 2009). Această evoluţie este consolidată în principal de expansiunea economică foarte puternică a Chinei, care va aduce în acest interval un plus de 214 milioane de pasageri. Potrivit aceleiaşi surse companiile de transport aerian se redresează semnificativ după recesiunea din 2009, însă anumite segmente din industria de profil rămân încă afectate de efectele recesiunii globale.\r\nO altă veste bună constă în modificarea pozitivă ce a intervenit la sfârşitul anului trecut în estimările IATA.

Cel mai dinamic şi coerent lanţ hotelier românesc a marcat trecerea a două decenii de la constituirea sa. Continental Hotels a fost fondat în 1991 pe fundamentul unor hoteluri de stat existente în ţară care purtau acest nume. Artizanul acestui concept de perspectivă a fost Nicolae Fertig, pe atunci directorul general al societăţii care s-a privatizat. În cadrul unor tranzacţii determinate de dezvoltarea lanţului Continental Hotels a renunţat la o serie de unităţi din Bucureşti, Timişoara şi Cluj. În acelaşi timp în cadrul unui parteneriat hotelier strategic cu grupul internaţional Accor, investitorii români au atras brandul Ibis. Primul care a funcţionat sub această marcă a devenit în 2001, după un amplu program de modernizare, fostul hotel „Nord” din Zona ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/86/industrie-hoteliera/mici/H.-Conti-retro.jpg\")
Gării centrale din Bucureşti. Alte două s-au deschis în 2005, Ibis Parlament în Capitală, respectiv Ibis Constanţa. În 2009 fostul hotel Continental din Sibiu s-a redeschis ca Ibis.\r\n\r\nUnde prognozau investitorii români că vor fi după 20 de ani? Mai precis sunt în staţia în care doreau să ajungă în 2011? Radu Enache, preşedinte şi CEO al lanţului Continental Hotels ne-a declarat că „desigur aşteptările au fost mai mari, dar un mediu de afaceri nematurizat a stopat sau a încetinit o serie de investiţii. Cu toate acestea sunt foarte mândru de ceea ce am realizat, noi echipa de la Continental împreună cu colaboratorii noştri care am servit în această perioadă 4 milioane de clienţi.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/86/industrie-hoteliera/mici/H.-Conti--Radu-Enache.jpg\")
Acum operăm peste 1860 de camere, 13 restaurante, 19 cafenele, 54 de săli de conferinţe, 4 zone de Spa, toate in-house. Am dezvoltat şi promovat 9 branduri proprii şi-mi face plăcere să le reamintesc pe toate: în hotelărie Continental Forum (4 stele), Continental (3 stele), Grand Hotel Continental (5 stele), Hello Hotels (2 stele), în restauraţie Balkan Bistro, Mondo, Concerto, Tekaffe şi Victoria Club. Dacă mă întrebaţi care este cel mai profitabil voi spune fără ezitare Hello Hotels. Ne-am fi dorit ca azi să oferim o sută de hoteluri cu acest brand care a fost foarte bine primit de toate segmentele de turişti. Deoacamdată însă deţinem doar unu. Deţinem o echipă tânără cu o medie de vârstă de aproape 37 de ani, iar sloganul nostru „Mai mult decât profesie, pasiune!”, se regăseşte în întreaga ţară în cele 24 de unităţi hoteliere. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/86/industrie-hoteliera/mici/H.Conti-apartament.jpg\")
Deocamdată nu vor mai avea loc investiţii spectaculoase, cu excepţia hotelului Continental de la Târgu Mureş, care se va transforma în Continental Forum. Condiţiile fiscale, climatul economic nefavorabil ne-au determinat să ne regândim strategia de investiţii. La urma urmei nimeni nu vine în România să-şi investească banii într-o gaură neagră. De ce am face-o tocmai noi?”\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nHOTELURI TEMATICE\r\n

De ce e ARSENAL PARK... unitate militară de vacanţă!\r\nProprietarii grupului de firme Bega din Timişoara fraţii Marius si Emil Cristescu doresc să dezvolte şi mai mult oferta primului complex de cazare, profilat pe turismul de aventură, amplasat la Orăştie (judeţul Hunedoara). Ei au anunţat că vor achiziţiona în acest an pentru Arsenal Park două avioane vechi (probabil Boeing-uri cu dimensiuni medii de circa 150 de locuri) în care intenţionează să amenajeze un hotel inedit şi o discotecă. “Am vizitat un astfel de hotel în Olanda, amenajat într-un avion cu elice. Dar o discotecă nu am văzut nicăieri. Tocmai de aceea cred că o astfel de investiţie se va bucura de succes” – declară Marius Cristescu. El mai spune că până acum în acest complex de vacanţă de 4 stele, care a fost inaugurat în urmă cu doi ani, au fost investite 10 milioane de euro. Aici sunt oferite 150 de locuri în apartamente şi vile. Arsenal Park este amplasat în perimetrul unei fabrici de armament, pe o suprafaţă de 88 de hectare şi include un muzeu militar în aer liber, terenuri de joacă, o tabără de antrenament şi bază de expediţii turistice culturale şi istorice. Turiştii care aleg acest complex turistic pot dormi, printre altele pe afetul unui tun, în TAB sau chiar în subteran, în tunelurile preluate de la armată ce au fost transformate în luxoase camere de hotel. “Avem ambiţia să transformăm Arsenal Park în cel mai mare muzeu militar în aer liber din Europa, ce va avea în final peste 500 de piese. Va fi ceva extraordinar pentru ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/86/industrie-hoteliera/mici/Hotel-Arsenal-director-Petre-Racovita.jpg\")
contemporani dar şi pentru generaţiile care ne vor urma” – anunţă Radu Cristescu. Aceasta ar fi prima etapă de dezvoltare care va absorbi în final 20 de milioane de euro. În a doua fază de dezvoltare se preconizează să fie amenajate un helioport, pentru 9 elicoptere, un teren de golf pe o suprafaţă de 30 de hectare, bazine de înot etc.\r\n\r\nPetre Racoviţă, directorul general al Arsenal Park, denumită şi unitate militară de vacanţă, ne precizează că “în ultima perioadă noi am achiziţionat deja 50 de piese de muzeu – mitraliere, tunuri antitanc, aeriene, tanc de 55, maşini de luptă MLI 55, MLI 76, lansatoare de rachete etc. În acest moment deţinem peste 120 de piese. Toate sunt recondiţionate şi pot fi vizitate unde e cazul şi în interior.

Deşi unii încearcă.\n\nANIVERSARE BRAND\nContinental Hotels are… 20 de ani\n\nCel mai dinamic şi coerent lanţ hotelier românesc a marcat trecerea a două decenii de la constituirea sa. Continental Hotels a fost fondat în 1991 pe fundamentul unor hoteluri de stat existente în ţară care purtau acest nume. Artizanul acestui concept de perspectivă a fost Nicolae Fertig, pe atunci directorul general al societăţii care s-a privatizat. În cadrul unor tranzacţii determinate de dezvoltarea lanţului Continental Hotels a renunţat la o serie de unităţi din Bucureşti, Timişoara şi Cluj. În acelaşi timp în cadrul unui parteneriat hotelier strategic cu grupul internaţional Accor, investitorii români au atras brandul Ibis. Primul care a funcţionat sub această marcă a devenit în 2001, după un amplu program de modernizare, fostul hotel „Nord” din Zona Gării centrale din Bucureşti. Alte două s-au deschis în 2005, Ibis Parlament în Capitală, respectiv Ibis Constanţa. În 2009 fostul hotel Continental din Sibiu s-a redeschis ca Ibis.\n\nUnde prognozau investitorii români că vor fi după 20 de ani? Mai precis sunt în staţia în care doreau să ajungă în 2011? Radu Enache, preşedinte şi CEO al lanţului Continental Hotels ne-a declarat că „desigur aşteptările au fost mai mari, dar un mediu de afaceri nematurizat a stopat sau a încetinit o serie de investiţii. Cu toate acestea sunt foarte mândru de ceea ce am realizat, noi echipa de la Continental împreună cu colaboratorii noştri care am servit în această perioadă 4 milioane de clienţi.\n\nAcum operăm peste 1860 de camere, 13 restaurante, 19 cafenele, 54 de săli de conferinţe, 4 zone de Spa, toate in-house. Am dezvoltat şi promovat 9 branduri proprii şi-mi face plăcere să le reamintesc pe toate: în hotelărie Continental Forum (4 stele), Continental (3 stele), Grand Hotel Continental (5 stele), Hello Hotels (2 stele), în restauraţie Balkan Bistro, Mondo, Concerto, Tekaffe şi Victoria Club. Dacă mă întrebaţi care este cel mai profitabil voi spune fără ezitare Hello Hotels. Ne-am fi dorit ca azi să oferim o sută de hoteluri cu acest brand care a fost foarte bine primit de toate segmentele de turişti. Deoacamdată însă deţinem doar unu. Deţinem o echipă tânără cu o medie de vârstă de aproape 37 de ani, iar sloganul nostru „Mai mult decât profesie, pasiune!”, se regăseşte în întreaga ţară în cele 24 de unităţi hoteliere. Deocamdată nu vor mai avea loc investiţii spectaculoase, cu excepţia hotelului Continental de la Târgu Mureş, care se va transforma în Continental Forum. Condiţiile fiscale, climatul economic nefavorabil ne-au determinat să ne regândim strategia de investiţii. La urma urmei nimeni nu vine în România să-şi investească banii într-o gaură neagră. De ce am face-o tocmai noi?”\n\n\n\nHOTELURI TEMATICE\n
De ce e ARSENAL PARK... unitate militară de vacanţă!\nProprietarii grupului de firme Bega din Timişoara fraţii Marius si Emil Cristescu doresc să dezvolte şi mai mult oferta primului complex de cazare, profilat pe turismul de aventură, amplasat la Orăştie (judeţul Hunedoara). Ei au anunţat că vor achiziţiona în acest an pentru Arsenal Park două avioane vechi (probabil Boeing-uri cu dimensiuni medii de circa 150 de locuri) în care intenţionează să amenajeze un hotel inedit şi o discotecă. “Am vizitat un astfel de hotel în Olanda, amenajat într-un avion cu elice. Dar o discotecă nu am văzut nicăieri. Tocmai de aceea cred că o astfel de investiţie se va bucura de succes” – declară Marius Cristescu. El mai spune că până acum în acest complex de vacanţă de 4 stele, care a fost inaugurat în urmă cu doi ani, au fost investite 10 milioane de euro. Aici sunt oferite 150 de locuri în apartamente şi vile. Arsenal Park este amplasat în perimetrul unei fabrici de armament, pe o suprafaţă de 88 de hectare şi include un muzeu militar în aer liber, terenuri de joacă, o tabără de antrenament şi bază de expediţii turistice culturale şi istorice. Turiştii care aleg acest complex turistic pot dormi, printre altele pe afetul unui tun, în TAB sau chiar în subteran, în tunelurile preluate de la armată ce au fost transformate în luxoase camere de hotel. “Avem ambiţia să transformăm Arsenal Park în cel mai mare muzeu militar în aer liber din Europa, ce va avea în final peste 500 de piese. Va fi ceva extraordinar pentru contemporani dar şi pentru generaţiile care ne vor urma” – anunţă Radu Cristescu. Aceasta ar fi prima etapă de dezvoltare care va absorbi în final 20 de milioane de euro. În a doua fază de dezvoltare se preconizează să fie amenajate un helioport, pentru 9 elicoptere, un teren de golf pe o suprafaţă de 30 de hectare, bazine de înot etc.\n\nPetre Racoviţă, directorul general al Arsenal Park, denumită şi unitate militară de vacanţă, ne precizează că “în ultima perioadă noi am achiziţionat deja 50 de piese de muzeu – mitraliere, tunuri antitanc, aeriene, tanc de 55, maşini de luptă MLI 55, MLI 76, lansatoare de rachete etc. În acest moment deţinem peste 120 de piese. Toate sunt recondiţionate şi pot fi vizitate unde e cazul şi în interior. În spaţiile de la restaurant şi de la comandament, prezentăm colecţii de fotografii şi documente ce ne reamintesc de imaginea şi contribuţia armatei române. Care a fost una semnificativă.\n\nPentru întreţinerea acestor piese vom crea o echipă specializată. Pot să vă spun că avem mai multe programe de dezvoltare depuse pentru finanţare şi aşteptăm ca ele să fie avizate. Vă voi aminti doar de cele ce prevăd construirea aici a unui stadion de fotbal, a unui centru Spa, a unei săli polivalente, a unui centru ce echitaţie şi a unei reţele de piste pentru ciclism ce va avea o lungime de 16 kilometri”. Racoviţă a mai subliniat că în cei 2 ani de activitate Arsenal Park a artras peste 10.000 de vizitatori, dintre care 20-25% au fost străini. Principala clientelă este formată din segmentul corporate, care organizează aici numeroase întâlniri, reuniuni, team-building-uri, lupte de gherilă urbană, instrucţie militar, lupte de airsoft etc. Programele sunt extrem de complexe de la cele de aventură, până la tururile culturale şi istorice efectuate la cetăţile dacice din Munţii Orăştiei, cu mijloace de transport de...epocă, servicii de ghidaj, dar si servicii de catering, adică un prânz de campanie la... gamelă, o experienţă de neuitat.\nFraţii Cristescu mai deţin, prin intermediul grupului de firme Bega, hotelurile Timişoara şi Nord din Timişoara (cu 140, respectiv 36 de camere) şi hotelul Timişoara din Sânnicolau Mare (cu 40 de camere).\n\n\n\nTENDINŢE\nTarifele în scădere, satisfacţii în creştere\n\nUn raport recent al Comisiei Europene de Turism (ETC), ce se referă la scăderea tarifelor hoteliere de anul trecut la nivel european (26 de pieţe), consemnează că România a ocupat locul al 2-lea, cu o scădere medie de 9,8%.

![\"\"](\"../../foto/86/industrie-hoteliera/Hotel-Arsenal-5.jpg\")
Proprietarii grupului de firme Bega din Timişoara fraţii Marius si Emil Cristescu doresc să dezvolte şi mai mult oferta primului complex de cazare, profilat pe turismul de aventură, amplasat la Orăştie (judeţul Hunedoara). Ei au anunţat că vor achiziţiona în acest an pentru Arsenal Park două avioane vechi (probabil Boeing-uri cu dimensiuni medii de circa 150 de locuri) în care intenţionează să amenajeze un hotel inedit şi o discotecă. “Am vizitat un astfel de hotel în Olanda, amenajat într-un avion cu elice. Dar o discotecă nu am văzut nicăieri. Tocmai de aceea cred că o astfel de investiţie se va bucura de succes” – declară Marius Cristescu. El mai spune că până acum în acest complex de vacanţă de 4 stele, care a fost inaugurat în urmă cu doi ani, au fost investite 10 milioane de euro. Aici sunt oferite 150 de locuri în apartamente şi vile. Arsenal Park este amplasat în perimetrul unei fabrici de armament, pe o suprafaţă de 88 de hectare şi include un muzeu militar în aer liber, terenuri de joacă, o tabără de antrenament şi bază de expediţii turistice culturale şi istorice. ![\"\"](\"../../foto/86/industrie-hoteliera/Hotel-Arsenal-director-Petre-Racovita.jpg\")
Turiştii care aleg acest complex turistic pot dormi, printre altele pe afetul unui tun, în TAB sau chiar în subteran, în tunelurile preluate de la armată ce au fost transformate în luxoase camere de hotel. “Avem ambiţia să transformăm Arsenal Park în cel mai mare muzeu militar în aer liber din Europa, ce va avea în final peste 500 de piese. Va fi ceva extraordinar pentru contemporani dar şi pentru generaţiile care ne vor urma” – anunţă Radu Cristescu. Aceasta ar fi prima etapă de dezvoltare care va absorbi în final 20 de milioane de euro. În a doua fază de dezvoltare se preconizează să fie amenajate un helioport, pentru 9 elicoptere, un teren de golf pe o suprafaţă de 30 de hectare, bazine de înot etc.\n\nPetre Racoviţă, directorul general al Arsenal Park, denumită şi unitate militară de vacanţă, ne precizează că “în ultima perioadă noi am achiziţionat deja 50 de piese de muzeu – mitraliere, tunuri antitanc, aeriene, tanc de 55, maşini de luptă MLI 55, MLI 76, lansatoare de rachete etc. În acest moment deţinem peste 120 de piese. Toate sunt recondiţionate şi pot fi vizitate unde e cazul şi în interior. În spaţiile de la restaurant şi de la comandament, prezentăm colecţii de fotografii şi documente ce ne reamintesc de imaginea şi contribuţia armatei române. Care a fost una semnificativă.\n![\"\"](\"../../foto/86/industrie-hoteliera/Hotel-Arsenal-8.jpg\")
Pentru întreţinerea acestor piese vom crea o echipă specializată. Pot să vă spun că avem mai multe programe de dezvoltare depuse pentru finanţare şi aşteptăm ca ele să fie avizate. Vă voi aminti doar de cele ce prevăd construirea aici a unui stadion de fotbal, a unui centru Spa, a unei săli polivalente, a unui centru ce echitaţie şi a unei reţele de piste pentru ciclism ce va avea o lungime de 16 kilometri”. Racoviţă a mai subliniat că în cei 2 ani de activitate Arsenal Park a artras peste 10.000 de vizitatori, dintre care 20-25% au fost străini. Principala clientelă este formată din segmentul corporate, care organizează aici numeroase întâlniri, reuniuni, team-building-uri, lupte de gherilă urbană, instrucţie militar, lupte de airsoft etc. ![\"\"](\"../../foto/86/industrie-hoteliera/Hotel-Arsenal-6.jpg\")

Prima poziţie a fost deţinută de Slovacia, care a cunoscut un regres de 13,4%, în timp ce Cehia, locul 3, a înregistrat o diminuare cu 9,5%.

Una dintre cele mai importante atracţii turistice, mozaicul roman din oraşul Constanţa are toate şansele să-şi recapete strălucirea de odinioară. Şi asta nu datorită unui program de restaurare iniţiat de stat ori de instituţiile locale ci a unui parteneriat privat.

Consiliul Local al comunei Istria a lansat proiectul „Pe urmele argonauţilor – promovarea traseului turistic Constanţa, Istria, Cheile Dobrogei”. Proiectul are menirea de a pune în valoare biodiversitatea şi patrimoniul cultural-istoric al zonei Istria-Cheile Dobrogei, în cadrul traseului tematic “Pe urmele argonauţilor”, printr-o campanie de promovare unitară. Traseul tematic se adresează turiştilor-excursionişti, interesaţi să trăiască o experienţă culturală inedită, tendinţă manifestată din ce în ce mai mult la nivel global şi naţional. Prin acesta se urmăreşte crearea unei identităţi culturale a zonei Istria – Cheile Dobrogei, creşterea competitivităţii ofertei turistice locale prin implementarea unui sistem eficient de promovare şi exploatare a ecoturismului şi turismului cultural, respectiv atragerea unui număr cât mai mare de turişti printr-o informare turistică constantă şi concentrată. În acest scop vor fi tipărite circa 2,4 milioane de pliante, 6.000 de broşuri turistice -, vor fi produse filme de promovare şi animaţie 3D a Cetăţii Histria dar şi 22 de panouri amplasate în punctele de interes turistic de pe traseul “Pe urmele argonauţilor”. Acestea vor pune accent pe valorificarea şi promovarea resurselor turistice naturale şi antropice din zona Istria – Cheile Dobrogei.

Traseul tematic se adresează turiştilor-excursionişti, interesaţi să trăiască o experienţă culturală inedită, tendinţă manifestată din ce în ce mai mult la nivel global şi naţional. Prin acesta se urmăreşte crearea unei identităţi culturale a zonei Istria – Cheile Dobrogei, creşterea competitivităţii ofertei turistice locale prin implementarea unui sistem eficient de promovare şi exploatare a ecoturismului şi turismului cultural, respectiv atragerea unui număr cât mai mare de turişti printr-o informare turistică constantă şi concentrată. În acest scop vor fi tipărite circa 2,4 milioane de pliante, 6.000 de broşuri turistice -, vor fi produse filme de promovare şi animaţie 3D a Cetăţii Histria dar şi 22 de panouri amplasate în punctele de interes turistic de pe traseul “Pe urmele argonauţilor”. Acestea vor pune accent pe valorificarea şi promovarea resurselor turistice naturale şi antropice din zona Istria – Cheile Dobrogei.

Prima, care presupune consolidarea Cetăţii istorice, este susţinută financiar de la bugetul local cu suma de 9 milioane de lei, iar a doua etapă va beneficia de investiţii susţinute prin fonduri europene, în valoare de 5 milioane de euro. Muntean a mai precizat că lucrările de repunere în valoare a monumentului istoric, considerate de către constructor (compania Castrum Tim), deosebit de dificile şi complexe, reprezintă o premieră în România. La nivel mondial asemenea lucrări de conservare, consolidare şi repunere în valoare a unui monument istoric, au mai fost realizate în Grecia şi SUA.

Şi asta nu datorită unui program de restaurare iniţiat de stat ori de instituţiile locale ci a unui parteneriat privat. El a fost iniţiat de către firma Groove Hour din Constanţa în urma semnalelor de alarma trase de mass media şi de către importanţi reprezentanţi ai culturii româneşti. Pentru restaurarea şi conservarea componentei artistice au fost realizate din fonduri proprii Studiile de impact, de fezabilitate şi expertiza tehnică a construcţiei de protecţie. Proiectul de restaurare şi conservare a mozaicului roman deţine avizul favorabil de la Ministerul Culturii şi Cultelor.\n\nConform estimărilor preliminare costurile primei etape a lucrărilor depăşesc 300.000 de euro, preţul final al acestui program urmând să se ridice la peste 1 milion de euro. Restaurarea va dura circa 4 ani. “Pentru finanţarea proiectului a fost încheiat un parteneriat cu compania de panificaţie Dobrogea SA din Constanţa, care va lansa “Pâinea Antică Romană”, un produs original, din făină speltă (grâu nemodificat genetic de circa 8.000 de ani), realizat după o veche reţetă romană. Din comercializarea produsului 10% va fi direcţionat spre finanţarea restaurării şi conservării mozaicului roman. În vederea sensibilizării consumatorilor pentru a sprijini acest demers Groove Hour a realizat un spot video ce va fi difuzat pe diverse canale media, ca produs de promovare noncomercial” – ne-a precizat Dragoş Paiu, directorul de marketing al Groove Hour. Revista noastră este unul dintre partenerii media ce susţin acest demers privat, de restaurare a unui monument cu valoare naţională şi internaţională.\n\nMozaicul roman a fost descoperit în perioada 1958-1960. Edificiul a fost construit în secolele 3-4, iar mozaicul se situează printre primele realizări romane de acest gen din lume, atât din punct de vedere al dimensiunii (peste 100 de metri lungime şi 20 de metri lăţime), al tehnicii execuţiei cât şi al valorii artistice.\nTraveller Magazin e partener media a acestei iniţiative.\n\nC.

Şi asta nu datorită unui program de restaurare iniţiat de stat ori de instituţiile locale ci a unui parteneriat privat. El a fost iniţiat de către firma Groove Hour din Constanţa în urma semnalelor de alarma trase de mass media şi de către importanţi reprezentanţi ai culturii româneşti. Pentru restaurarea şi conservarea componentei artistice au fost realizate din fonduri proprii Studiile de impact, de fezabilitate şi expertiza tehnică a construcţiei de protecţie. Proiectul de restaurare şi conservare a mozaicului roman deţine avizul favorabil de la Ministerul Culturii şi Cultelor.\r\n\r\nConform estimărilor preliminare costurile primei etape a lucrărilor depăşesc 300.000 de euro, preţul final al acestui program urmând să se ridice la peste 1 milion de euro. Restaurarea va dura circa 4 ani. “Pentru finanţarea proiectului a fost încheiat un parteneriat cu compania de panificaţie Dobrogea SA din Constanţa, care va lansa “Pâinea Antică Romană”, un produs original, din făină speltă (grâu nemodificat genetic de circa 8.000 de ani), realizat după o veche reţetă romană. Din comercializarea produsului 10% va fi direcţionat spre finanţarea restaurării şi conservării mozaicului roman. În vederea sensibilizării consumatorilor pentru a sprijini acest demers Groove Hour a realizat un spot video ce va fi difuzat pe diverse canale media, ca produs de promovare noncomercial” – ne-a precizat Dragoş Paiu, directorul de marketing al Groove Hour. Revista noastră este unul dintre partenerii media ce susţin acest demers privat, de restaurare a unui monument cu valoare naţională şi internaţională.\r\n\r\nMozaicul roman a fost descoperit în perioada 1958-1960. Edificiul a fost construit în secolele 3-4, iar mozaicul se situează printre primele realizări romane de acest gen din lume, atât din punct de vedere al dimensiunii (peste 100 de metri lungime şi 20 de metri lăţime), al tehnicii execuţiei cât şi al valorii artistice.\r\nTraveller Magazin e partener media a acestei iniţiative.\r\n\r\nC.

Numai anul trecut au apărut zeci de noi locuri de comercializare a acestor mijloace de... transport şi au fost vândute peste 500.000 de biciclete. Conform lui Mircea Olaru (foto), directorul agenţiei de turism Enjoy Transylvania, una dintre puţinele specializate în România în domeniul „cycling holiday”, înregistrăm „un trend pozitiv pe acest segment. În acest an se vor organiza peste 45 de evenimente pentru cicliştii amatori sau profesionişti, majoritatea cu sute de participanţi. Spre deosebire de piaţa din străinătate, românilor le lipsesc încă serviciile de ciclism recreaţional. Mai exact, dacă nu am bicicleta mea, dacă nu fac faţă drumurilor accidentate din cadrul concursurilor, dar vreau să fac o plimbare departe de zarva oraşului şi vreau să mă relaxez, la cine apelez? În ţări precum Franţa sau Anglia, răspunsul e simplu şi la îndemână. La o agenţie de turism specializată în acest domeniu.\r\n\r\nOlaru, care este şi ghid de turism, mai spune că de la o asemenea companie de travel poţi primi consultanţă în alegerea traseului, bicicletă şi asistenţă din partea unui ghid specializat pe toată durata vacanţei. Agenţia se ocupă de toată logistica: transportul cu maşina până la locul de unde începe traseul pe bicicletă, tranferul bagajelor la locul de cazare, organizarea evenimentelor în cadrul pensiunilor agroturistice, asistenţă tehnică permanentă.

Proiectul are menirea de a pune în valoare biodiversitatea şi patrimoniul cultural-istoric al zonei Istria-Cheile Dobrogei, în cadrul traseului tematic “Pe urmele argonauţilor”, printr-o campanie de promovare unitară. Traseul tematic se adresează turiştilor-excursionişti, interesaţi să trăiască o experienţă culturală inedită, tendinţă manifestată din ce în ce mai mult la nivel global şi naţional. Prin acesta se urmăreşte crearea unei identităţi culturale a zonei Istria – Cheile Dobrogei, creşterea competitivităţii ofertei turistice locale prin implementarea unui sistem eficient de promovare şi exploatare a ecoturismului şi turismului cultural, respectiv atragerea unui număr cât mai mare de turişti printr-o informare turistică constantă şi concentrată. În acest scop vor fi tipărite circa 2,4 milioane de pliante, 6.000 de broşuri turistice -, vor fi produse filme de promovare şi animaţie 3D a Cetăţii Histria dar şi 22 de panouri amplasate în punctele de interes turistic de pe traseul “Pe urmele argonauţilor”. Acestea vor pune accent pe valorificarea şi promovarea resurselor turistice naturale şi antropice din zona Istria – Cheile Dobrogei. Proiectul are o durată de implementare de 24 de luni şi un buget total de peste 858.000 de lei.

![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/86/english/mici/Conti-Enache-engl.jpg\")
The most dynamic Romanian hotel chain is 20 years old. Continental Hotels was founded in 1991 having Nicolae Fertig (general director of the society at that time) as a craftsman of its concept. In order to develop the chain the specialists of Continental Hotels renounced at some properties in Bucharest, Timişoara and Cluj but, in a strategic partnership with Accor, they have attracted the Ibis brand. The first hotel that came with this name in 2001 the former „Nord” in Bucharest, located nearby the North Train Station. Two other followed in 2005: Ibis Parlament (in the Capital city) and Ibis Constanţa. In 2009 the former Continental in Sibiu reopened as Ibis as well.\r\n\r\nRadu Enache, president of the chain Continental Hotels, said: „I am very proud of what the Continental team accomplished. We now have more than 1860 rooms, 13 restaurants, 19 coffee shops, 54 conference rooms, and 4 Spa areas, all of them being in-house.\r\nWe have developed nine brands of our own regarding the hotels and Horeca segment: Continental Forum (4 stars, Continental (3 stars), Grand Hotel Continental (five stars), Hello Hotels (2 stars), Balkan Bistro, Mondo, Concerto, Tekaffe and Victoria Club”.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCONSTANŢA – good news for the mosaic\r\n\r\nOne of the most important attractions at the Black Sea, the Roman mosaic in Constanţa, has got all the chances to shine again. The restoration works where started in a private partnership by Groove Hour in Constanţa, following the poor conservation of the site. It is estimated that they will take four years.\r\nAccording to some preliminary studies the starting costs go as much as 300.000 euro, the final price of all the needed works reaching a one million euro budget. “It order to be able to finance the project there has been signed a partnership with the company Dobrogea SA in Constanţa. They will launch the “Antique Roman Bread”, an original product made out of wheat after an old Roman recipe. 10% of the selling price of each bread will be directed in order to finance the restoration and conservation of the roman mosaic” – said Dragoş Paiu, marketing director of Groove Hour. Traveller Magazin is one of the media partners sustaining this private initiative for the salvation of world valuable monument.\r\nThe Roman mosaic dates back to the 4th century, and is a unique work of art due to its dimensions (100 meters long and 20 meters wide) and execution technique. It has been uncovered and exposed in the period 1958-1960.\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nRomânia will be in 24 international tourism fairs\r\nThe tourism offers of Romania will be presented this year by the Ministry of Regional Development and Tourism (MDRT) in no more than 24 international profile fairs.

\n\n20 years of Continental Hotels\n\nThe most dynamic Romanian hotel chain is 20 years old. Continental Hotels was founded in 1991 having Nicolae Fertig (general director of the society at that time) as a craftsman of its concept. In order to develop the chain the specialists of Continental Hotels renounced at some properties in Bucharest, Timişoara and Cluj but, in a strategic partnership with Accor, they have attracted the Ibis brand. The first hotel that came with this name in 2001 the former „Nord” in Bucharest, located nearby the North Train Station. Two other followed in 2005: Ibis Parlament (in the Capital city) and Ibis Constanţa. In 2009 the former Continental in Sibiu reopened as Ibis as well.\n\n\nRadu Enache, president of the chain Continental Hotels, said: „I am very proud of what the Continental team accomplished.

\n\nCONSTANŢA – good news for the mosaic\n\nOne of the most important attractions at the Black Sea, the Roman mosaic in Constanţa, has got all the chances to shine again. The restoration works where started in a private partnership by Groove Hour in Constanţa, following the poor conservation of the site. It is estimated that they will take four years.\nAccording to some preliminary studies the starting costs go as much as 300.000 euro, the final price of all the needed works reaching a one million euro budget. “It order to be able to finance the project there has been signed a partnership with the company Dobrogea SA in Constanţa. They will launch the “Antique Roman Bread”, an original product made out of wheat after an old Roman recipe. 10% of the selling price of each bread will be directed in order to finance the restoration and conservation of the roman mosaic” – said Dragoş Paiu, marketing director of Groove Hour. Traveller Magazin is one of the media partners sustaining this private initiative for the salvation of world valuable monument.

Feriţi-vă de... mutanţi\r\n\r\nAm asistat la o declaraţie monumentală. În timpul unui simpozion ce dezbătea protejarea mediului un mutant, cu aere de specialist, a concluzionat astfel: în dezvoltarea societăţii noastre trebuie să alegem, între verdeaţă, păduri, spaţii verzi, ori civilizaţie (adică amenajări asfaltate, betonate, trotuare, drumuri, parcări). Afirmaţia a fost şocantă. Dacă mai punem la socoteală că lucra într-un minister de profil emanaţia lui devine... pericol public.\r\n\r\nPeste tot unde am fost în lume, am băgat la cap şi am văzut, problema se pune tocmai invers. Respectul faţă de natură înseamnă civilizaţie. Exemple?\r\n\r\nÎn Tunisia, în plin deşert, ni s-a prezentat un mare succes. În câţiva ani o plantaţie de câteva hectare a prins viaţă, iar localnicii erau mândri. După zeci de ani, plouase de două ori câteva picături, într-un interval foarte scurt. În Turcia, de-a lungul litoralului de la Mediterană toate complexele de cazare au reinventat natura. Acolo unde nu a fost nimic au apărut grădini luxuriante, vegetaţie abundentă, care au schimbat condiţiile climatice. Pe ici pe colo, pe unde există o pădure de pini, clădirile au fost integrate ţinând cont de aceştia. Nimeni nu se miră azi când în mijlocul unui restaurant, spa, hol ţâşneşte victorioasă vegetaţia naturală. Dacă tai cumva un copac, fără aprobări solide, puşcăria te mănâncă. În fine, să nu uităm de Europa noastră. După ce au asfaltat la greu, şosele, trotuare, străduţe, edilii oraşului Munchen au fost informaţii că se întâmplă un lucru dramatic. Oraşul nu mai respira. Aproape 80% din ploaia care cădea asupra urbei nu mai era absorbită de pământ. Şi acum, cu mic, cu mare, într-o primă fază au început să „desfacă” trotuarele betonate ţais şi să le acopere cu piatră cubică printre care să se poată scurge apa.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Traveller-Coperta-nr-86.jpg\" "\\"Traveller")
N-am auzit pe nimeni vorbind în ultimele decenii cum că una dintre priorităţile României este investiţia în natură. E la fel de importantă ca şi construirea de autostrăzi care va simplifica şi o va ajuta, paradoxal, pe prima. Asistăm pasivi la o agresiune asupra mediului natural ori urban, care este ciuntit, mutilat, distrus de asfaltări şi betonări făcute fără cap şi logică. Dacă vom continua aşa, atractivitatea noastră turistică va scădea. Ce străin s-ar da în vânt să vină în România ca să vadă ce are şi acasă? Beton şi asfalt, şi pe ici pe colo câte o floricică amărâtă. De aceea apariţia mutantul de care aminteam e un pericol public.

În timpul unui simpozion ce dezbătea protejarea mediului un mutant, cu aere de specialist, a concluzionat astfel: în dezvoltarea societăţii noastre trebuie să alegem, între verdeaţă, păduri, spaţii verzi, ori civilizaţie (adică amenajări asfaltate, betonate, trotuare, drumuri, parcări). Afirmaţia a fost şocantă. Dacă mai punem la socoteală că lucra într-un minister de profil emanaţia lui devine... pericol public.\r\n\r\nPeste tot unde am fost în lume, am băgat la cap şi am văzut, problema se pune tocmai invers. Respectul faţă de natură înseamnă civilizaţie. Exemple?\r\n\r\nÎn Tunisia, în plin deşert, ni s-a prezentat un mare succes. În câţiva ani o plantaţie de câteva hectare a prins viaţă, iar localnicii erau mândri. După zeci de ani, plouase de două ori câteva picături, într-un interval foarte scurt. În Turcia, de-a lungul litoralului de la Mediterană toate complexele de cazare au reinventat natura. Acolo unde nu a fost nimic au apărut grădini luxuriante, vegetaţie abundentă, care au schimbat condiţiile climatice. Pe ici pe colo, pe unde există o pădure de pini, clădirile au fost integrate ţinând cont de aceştia. Nimeni nu se miră azi când în mijlocul unui restaurant, spa, hol ţâşneşte victorioasă vegetaţia naturală. Dacă tai cumva un copac, fără aprobări solide, puşcăria te mănâncă. În fine, să nu uităm de Europa noastră. După ce au asfaltat la greu, şosele, trotuare, străduţe, edilii oraşului Munchen au fost informaţii că se întâmplă un lucru dramatic. Oraşul nu mai respira. Aproape 80% din ploaia care cădea asupra urbei nu mai era absorbită de pământ. Şi acum, cu mic, cu mare, într-o primă fază au început să „desfacă” trotuarele betonate ţais şi să le acopere cu piatră cubică printre care să se poată scurge apa.\r\n\r\nN-am auzit pe nimeni vorbind în ultimele decenii cum că una dintre priorităţile României este investiţia în natură. E la fel de importantă ca şi construirea de autostrăzi care va simplifica şi o va ajuta, paradoxal, pe prima. Asistăm pasivi la o agresiune asupra mediului natural ori urban, care este ciuntit, mutilat, distrus de asfaltări şi betonări făcute fără cap şi logică. Dacă vom continua aşa, atractivitatea noastră turistică va scădea. Ce străin s-ar da în vânt să vină în România ca să vadă ce are şi acasă? Beton şi asfalt, şi pe ici pe colo câte o floricică amărâtă. De aceea apariţia mutantul de care aminteam e un pericol public. E posibil ca, împins în faţă de interese de partid şi de stat el să fie clonat şi multiplicat rapid. Dacă va fi încurajat de indiferenţa socială atunci nu te invididez turism românesc. După câteva decenii vom admira flori în fotografii, înrămate în muzeele de ştiinţe ale naturii. Fără grădinari nu va mai exista... grădina Carpaţilor.

The certification, worldwide recognized, offers the smart-flying company the possibility of instructing the pilots that wish to specialize on flying the Boeing 737 or of those that whish to convert on this type of plane. During instruction, flight simulators brought from Brussels, Berlin or Amsterdam, are being used. Blue Air has been constantly investing in professional development and it has a technical base in Bucharest that assures the maintenance of its own aircraft or of planes belonging to other companies.\r\n\r\nPromotion on 3 international channels\r\nCNN, Euronews and Eurosport are the three international TV channels that the Ministry of Regional Development and Tourism selected for its campaign of promoting the beauties and values of Romania as a tourist destination. The campaign will cover 12 months and will show different trailers of 20 up to 30 seconds. Their concept underlines the Romanian values and cultural heritage, natural resources, a rich mix of historical influences, the Romanian authentic traditions. The international TV channels have been selected according the audience, the reference dates for 2010 being offered by the European Media and Marketing Survey (EMS).\r\n\r\nRadu Enache is the new leader of FIHR\r\nIn the General Assembly of the Federation of the Hotel Industry in Romania (FIHR) a new president has been elected. Radu Enache is the main shareholder of Continental Hotels, the most important Romanian hotel chain. He manages a team of professionals that took the mission of repositioning from the economic point of view the interests of the local hotel industry. As a release of FIHR says: „for the moment FIHR confronts a multitude of problems that can be solved only by uniting the forces of all the patronages. There is a lack of coherence and perspective, a dramatic diminish of investments and a disastrous infrastructure. One of our priority subjects is the excessive financial taxes that this economic sector has to face”.\r\n\r\nThe green MICHELIN in Romanian\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_410\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"The green Michelin \"][/caption]\r\n\r\nMichelin and Meteor Press launched the Romanian version of the Green Michelin guide for Romania. The work completes the prestigious Michelin collection. Eight sites received the highest distinction, the three stars (meaning a must see): the monasteries in Bucovina, Maramureş, Dragomirna church, Sibiu, the Transfăgărăşan route, Horezu monastery, Prejmer citadel and the Danube Delta. Besides Bucharest several other cities or villages, monuments or museums received two stars (deserve a stop) or one (are interesting).\r\n„Our editors where keen to offer the readers this collection with the most interesting things to see and do in Romania” – said Eric Faidy, Michelin president for Romania and the Balkans. The Green Michelin guide for Romania has 368 pages, includes 22 maps, almost 600 addresses (out of which 400 of places to sleep and eat) and 160 photos.\r\n\r\nInterContinental is 40\r\nInterContinental hotel opened in 1971. It has been projected by the Romanian architects Dinu Hariton, Gheorghe Nădrag, Ion Moscu and Romeo Ştefan Belea. The construction, made by Romanian constructors, engineers and workers, took only three years, being a performance of those times. This building has been the first InterContinental in Central and Eastern Europe and, for 25 years, the highest building in Bucharest. For about 30 years it used to be the only international brand five stars hotel in the country.\r\n“The ’66 offered good political conditions in order the InterContinental to come to Bucharest. Together with the chief architect of the capital, prof. Horia Maicu, we have started the studies for the future locations. Initially the hotel was projected as well with three wings but shorter. The Americans appreciated that the University Square is the city centre so then we built it there, on the spot of the <La Zisu> restaurant” – remembers Romeo Belea, one of the architects. “The InterContinentalul in Bucharest opened in a favorable political moment. At the inauguration Pan Am brought a plane full with American tourists. In this way the hotels started full from the beginning” – recalls George Opriş, former Rooms Division Manager (1971 –1996).\r\nInitially the hotel had 423 rooms and apartments. Today it showcases 257. Along the years famous politicians, singers or VIPs used the InterContinental in Bucharest: Bill Gates, Harlem Globe Trotters team, Robert Gates – the Pentagon leader, Zucchero, Demis Roussos, Jose Carreras, Jacques Yves Cousteau, Luciano Pavarotti, Richard Claydermann, Bjorg Borg, Billy Idol, the Kessler sisters, Yehudi Menuhin, etc.\r\n\r\nOUR INTERVIEW\r\nLUCIAN BORONEA: „The decisions you take in a business have a limited value!”\r\nLucian Boronea is the general director of the tourism agency Accent Travel & Events. He has been holding this position since 1999 when the company started. Born in 1970 in Topliţa (Harghita county) he majored the “Ovidiu Tăslăuanu” College. In 1994 he became a graduate of the Commerce faculty of the Academy of Economic Studies (ASE) in Bucharest.\r\nDuring his very dynamic career he acquired studies and preparation stages in aviation, hotel industry, travel and organizations. He is a part of the new wave in Romanian tourism industry and, from this position, he observes that “Romanian tourism has a huge potential but is very little used by the local agencies. I believe that the events tourism, made in a professional manner, will always be a winning card”.\r\n\r\nTRANSILVANIA FEST will be in BLAJ\r\nThe no. 7 edition of the Transilvania Fest culture and gastronomy festival will take place, July 29-31, in Alba County, on Câmpia Libertăţii in Blaj. „After the last editions in Cluj and Sibiu, we have now chosen Alba. We are glad that Blaj will host us this year as the city is full of hospitality and offers good cultural, economic and logistic value. This year you will meet in Transilvania Fest: traditional craftsmen, regional food products, the alleys of flowers, cheese, wine and honey, events dedicated to children (ateliers of „Educating your senses”), theatre shows, ethno-blues, folk-jazz, open air cinema, cooking shows” – said the organizers.\r\nTurda Fest, nowadays named Transilvania Fest, was first organized in 2005. In 2008 it started changing its location. The event is organiyed under the patronage of Her Royal Majesty Princess Margareta of Romania and His Highness Prince Charles of Wales. Traveller Magazin is one of the media partners of this event.\r\n\r\nRomanian hoteliers for United Way\r\nConcept Hotels Company and United Way Romania foundation have started the campaign “Romanian hoteliers helping United Way”. As Dragoş Popescu said: “our financial target is obtaining 10.000 euro in one year, by allotting a percent of all the money obtained from selling our Aloe Vera products. This is the first line of hotel cosmetics especially created to help humanitarian projects. The products have been specifically marked as such. I am sure that the initiative will be of great success”.\r\nOpened in 2001 Concept Hotels has over 700 HoReCa clients.

La Bucureşti şi Constanţa unde s-a încercat implementarea şi promovarea unor City Pass-uri turistice, sub formă de carnete cu discounturi. Iniţiativele au murit natural, după primele tentative. Unul dintre motive – iniţiatorii nu au fost consecvenţi şi au renunţat după primul eşec. Ultimul intrat în această ruletă de interese este Braşovul. Care este şi cel mai apropiat de o premieră naţională. Lansarea unui Card turistic ce va include discounturi atractive - comerciale, culturale şi turistice -, pentru cei care vor vizita respectiva zonă.\n\nDe altfel, vedeta şi subiectul principal al celei de-a III-a ediţii a Conferinţei hoteliere şi de turism din Transilvania a fost de departe Cardul Turistic Braşov. Organizată în oraşul de la poalele Tâmpei, care are ambiţia de a deveni o placă turnantă a turismului românesc, evenimentul a beneficiat de toată logistica pusă la punct de către Asociaţia pentru Promovarea şi Dezvoltarea Turismului (APDT), din judeţul Braşov. Pentru a stimula interesul şi a oferi clarificări izvorâte din experienţe practice la conferinţă au fost invitaţi mai mulţi specialişti ori producători internaţionali de carduri turistice, cărora li s-au alăturat consultanţi de specialitate din Austria, Spania şi Germania. Amfitrionii au fost Christian Macedonschi, preşedintele APDT Braşov care a coordonat prezentările legate de promovarea Cardului Turistic, respectiv Tiberiu Foriş, prorectorul Universităţii Transilvania, unul dintre cei mai importanţi lideri în domeniul formării manageriale în turism. Ambii au antrenat în dialoguri consistente pe cei prezenţi, peste o sută de specialişti din industria ospitalităţii.\n\nCum se configurează un Card Turistic? \n\nDepinde de cât de activă şi interesată este comunitatea de afaceri dintr-o anumită zonă. Macedonschi a arătat că Braşovul este pregătit să lanseze un asemenea produs deoarece majoritatea elementelor de conexe sunt finalizate. Zona are pusă la punct o infrastructură turistică de evenimente, parteneriate strategice cu instituţiile importante şi cu mediul privat, are o agendă de evenimente definitivată şi, ceea ce este foarte important, o colaborare strânsă cu asociaţii similiare din Germania şi Spania. Turnirul Cetăţilor (care se produce la Râşnov, Făgăraş, Braşov şi Feldioara), Octoberfest la Braşov, care la prima ediţie a înregistrat 80.000 de vizitatori şi Mobile Cooking (un festival gastronomic în aer liber, itinerant) sunt doar câteva dintre manifestările de succes. „Am invitat specialişti străini, pentru că e mai ieftin să învăţăm din greşelile altora. Este foarte clar că nimeni nu a avut succes de la început cu Cardul Turistic. E vorba de o construcţie economică în care trebuie armonizate permanent interesele. Cardul trebuie legat de transportul public şi de cel turisti. De aceea trebuie să punem la punct inclusiv un sistem de transport turistic zonal care să acopere şi atracţiile din alte localităţi. După cum au precizat şi partenerii noştri, trebuie să apelăm la un marketing direct pentru promovare, să ne adresăm direct turiştilor străini în cadrul unor evenimente internaţionale. Ne-am prezentat ofertele la Târgul de la Berlin, în primăvară, o vom face şi la Nurenberg, oraş vizitat anual de circa 2 milioane de turişti. Intenţionăm să organizăm o manifestare şi în centrul oraşului Praga, oraş prin care trec zilnic circa 200.000 de vizitatori internaţionali. Un moment cheie, foarte important în va constitui în această toamnă, aniversarea la Braşov a 800 de ani de la venirea cavalerilor teutoni. Va fi un festival de impact. El este sprijinit de Clubului Economic German din Braşov, condus de preşedintele Werner Braun”.\n\nMarketing cu ochii deschişi\n\nHans Wallner, a prezentat în calitate de lider al organizaţiei Austria Incoming, mai multe particularităţi ale adaptării pieţei în zona Zell am See-Kaprun, la noile tipuri de turişti în special a celor veniţi din ţările arabe şi Rusia care au obiţnuinţe gastronomice diferite. Gero Weidlich, project management Carduri Turistice, a explicat cât de importante sunt evaluările destinaţiilor. “În funcţie de particularităţile zonei pot fi implementate City-cards, All Inclusive Cards sau cele Prepaind. Pentru unele carduri se plăteşte, pentru altele nu, în funcţie de perioadă şi adresabilitate. Scopul acestora este să atragă noi grupuri şi familii de turişti. Care vor contribui, cu singuranţă la creşterea consumului local”. Klaus Schon, şef de proiect al AVS GmbH, a relatat despre experienţa recentă a implementării Cardului turistic în Zona metropolitană Nurnberg. “Cardul este un instrument extraordinar pentru consolidarea managementului destinaţiilor. Oferta trebuie să fie simplă şi clară. Să aibă un preţ atractiv. Produsul poate fi acceptat sau primit cu ostilitate de către membrii din regiune. Acest aspect este foarte important. La fel de important pentru succesul Cardului este marketingul practicat şi vânzarea acestuia. Un card nu poate funcţional fără o reţea de distribuţie bine pusă la punct. Noi îl comercializăm în 85 de centre de vânzare. La Nurnberg, am promovat un suport pe care l-am denumit “Cardul Descoperitorului” cu o valabilitate de un an. Acesta conţine 100 de oferte culturale, muzee, biserici, cetăţi, băi termale, aqua parcuri şi include discounturi. Pentru a fi atractiv cardul trebuie să aibă şi un sponsor principal, în cazul nostru vorbim de o Bancă de stat, care beneficiază de vizualizare publicitară”.\n\nAtacul gastronomic al lui Hausmann şi Franz\n\nO altă experienţă a fost adusă din Spania de către Evencio Suoto Rodriguez, reprezentantul Grupului Pic. El a arătat că pentru a înregistra succes într-o zonă e nevoie să fie introduse şi respectate bunele practici în turism. “Spre exemplu doi dintre cei mai buni agenţi de promovare sunt taximetriştii şi poliţiştii. Dacă ei oferă servicii şi informaţii căutate de turişti atunci primul contact reprezintă un succes pentru viitoarea vacanţă. Dacă turiştii sunt dezinformaţi ori înşelaţi atunci apar multe semne de întrebare despre o anumită destinaţie”. La rândul său Alberto Martinez Villa, reprezentantul Clusterului Turistic din Gijon (Spania) a vorbit despre impactul formidabil pe care îl au sistemele de calitate în desfăşurarea activităţilor turistice. “Sistemele integrate de calitate, rolul “clientului misterios” în evaluările unor servicii, pot determina numeroase opţiuni în achiziţionarea unui Card Turistic. Preţul unui card la Gijon este de 5 euro şi el conţine discounturi până la 10%. Putem vorbi deja despre un succes turistic în zona noastră”.\nŞi pentru că tot am amintit de Cluster, o iniţiativă românească similară s-a dat în spectacol şi la Terasa cu Vie din curtea vechii cetăţi a Braşovului. Mobile Cooking Romania, a pus la lucru doi maeştri bucătari Jakob Hausmann şi Marko Franz. Ei au preparat o mâncare delicioasă într-un show gastronomic, în acompaniamentul formaţiei de muzica clasică “Collegium Musicum Kronstadt”, a unor vinuri armonizate cu tema conferinţei, ca şi mezelurile oferite de Sergiana, un producător zonal special, a demonstraţiilor unui sticlar plin de talent şi al cavalerilor care au apărat cetatea.

LA SAN FRANCISCO S-A BĂTUT TOBA... TURISMULUI CU MARE FOLOS \r\nDupă 19 ani San Francisco a redevenit pentru câteva zile capitala specialiştilor în turismul american. A fost mare înghesuială pe metru pătrat la a 43-a ediţie a Târgului International POW WOW. Cam 5.000 de delegaţi, cumpărători şi vânzători, peste 400 de editori de travel. Cei din urmă au de câţiva ani buni International Market Place, un târg propriu în care dacă şti să-ţi strângi informaţiile poţi să scrii despre lumea turismului mult şi bine. Şi echipa noastră a fost de faţă, invitată la POW WOW pentru al 12 an consecutiv.\r\nAtât Joe D Alessandro, preşedintele Asociaţiei de Turism a oraşului cât şi Caroline Beteta, ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Francisco-151.jpg\" "\\"Francisco")
preşedinta Comisiei de Turism a Californiei, au provocat invitaţii cu o destinaţie „unică şi completă”. În 2010 statul California a primit 5,6 milioane de vizitatori străini (cu 16% mai mult decât în anul anterior) iar San Francisco a fost declarat, pentru al 18-lea an consecutiv, de către cititorii Conde Nast Traveler, drept oraşul american preferat. Roger Dow, preşedintele Asociaţiei de Turism a Statelor Unite (U.S Travel Association), a apreciat varietatea atracţiilor regiunii - „dacă ai fost într-un loc în California, atunci ai văzut doar un loc”-, anunţând pentru 2012 un alt oraş fabulos al statului ce va găzdui POW WOW: Los Angeles. Cea mai importantă noutate a fost înfiinţarea Corporaţiei pentru Promovare Turistică (Corporation for Travel Promotion). CTP este primul parteneriat public-privat din SUA care coordonează la nivel naţional un program de promovare a întregii SUA, ca o unică destinaţie, cu un unic concept, pentru piaţa internaţională. „Este extraordinar pentru întreaga industrie. Un lucru care, în primul rând va îmbunătăţi cunoştinţele călătorilor despre Statele Unite”- a spus Roger Dow.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Francisco-187.jpg\" "\\"Francisco")
Cum s-a născut Universul\r\nOrganizatorii au valorificat orice moment pentru a prezenta noi destinaţii ori idei. Prânzul oferit de Parcurile Naţionale ale Americii a promovat natura şi cele patru elemente ale sale (apa, aeru, pământul, focul) prin dansul unei trupe de indigeni. Statul Texas a magnetizat delegaţii cu o demonstraţie muzicală, plină de virtuozitate, susţinută de formaţia de cowboy a Universităţii Hardin-Simmons din Abilene. Serile în San Francisco au confirmat excelenta capacitate de planificare a evenimentelor. Celebrul Pier 39 a fost închis pentru public şi a ţinut toate restaurantele şi magazinele deschise pentru delegaţi. Între timp vasele au făcut minicroaziere către Alcatraz unde, pe lângă vizită, curioşii au putut degusta celebre vinuri de Napa Valley şi pune întrebări foştilor deţinuţi ori gardieni.\r\n\r\nCulture Club, un eveniment pregătit de California Academy of Sciences, a atras mii de delegaţi în muzeul Academiei. Invitaţii au făcut plimbări într-o pădure amazoniană, cu un microclimat recreat artificial sub un clopot de sticlă, cu o înălţime de patru etaje, unde au admirat sute de fluturi şi plante tropicale. Acvariul, expoziţia de reptile vii ori dioramele au încântat privirile. Atracţia serii a constituit-o Filmul despre Univers. Proiectat în cel mai mare Planetarium Dom digitalizat din lume, el a prilejuit o plimbare virtuală, din celula frunzei până în galaxiile spaţiului. Şi petrecerea de închidere a târgului a fost fantastică. Primăria din San Francisco a fost, pentru câteva ore „ecranul” unor proiecţii promoţionale şi locul unde au răsunat concerte de muzică clasică, rock, hip-hop etc. Piaţa din faţa edificiului a fost ocupată cu standuri şi corturi pline cu bunătăţuri şi vinuri oferite de producători celebri din Napa ori Sonoma.\r\n\r\nZâmbiţi, vă rog !\r\nDistracţia a fost una. Munca a fost alta. Adică prima. Din caruselul conferinţelor de presă, circa şase pe zi, am remarcat-o pe cea a zonei turistice Orlando. Cei doi primari ai Orange County şi ai oraşului, Orlando Teresa Jacobs şi Buddy Dyer, au anunţat că în 2010, datorită celor peste 51 de milioane de vizitatori, zona turistică Orlando a devenit destinaţia numărul 1 a SUA. Creşterea faţă de 2009, a fost de peste 11%. Dyer a spus că industria turismului din Orlando se exprimă prin peste 400.000 de locuri muncă care generează venituri peste 13,6 miliarde de dolari. În topul furnizorilor internaţionali se numără Canada, Marea Britanie şi Brazilia. Noua campanie de promovare şi marketing iniţiată pe principalele pieţe include conferinţe, simpozioane şi participări la târguri internaţionale. Ea se desfăşoară sub pălăria sloganurilor – „Orlando Makes Me Smile” şi „Where Inspiration Meets”.\r\n\r\nCe a mai inventat DoubleTree\r\nUn vechi prieten an revistei noastre Thomas Wingham, directorul de PR şi Marketing al DoubleTree by Hilton, ne-a adus o noutate absolută. Marea familie hotelieră şi-a propus să continue inovaţia pe segmentul de brand, pentru a apropia şi mai mult mărcile sale de turişti. Rebrandingul se desfăşoară pe parcursul întregului an. Investiţia în campania globală (ce acoperă 250 de hoteluri amplasate în 17 ţări), se ridică la 3 miliarde de dolari. Thomas a subliniat că „la DoubleTree desenul a fost schimbat cu o imagine mai atractivă. Aceasta se regăseşte tipărită deja pe cadoul tradiţional oferit clienţilor, celebrii biscuiţi marca... DoubleTree”. Conform sloganului aici e locul unde lucrurile mici înseamnă totul („Where the little things mean everything”).\r\n\r\nRon Kuhlman, vicepreşedintele biroului de promovare Virginia Beach (Coasta de Est) ne-a relatat despre noutăţile din regiunea sa. Parcul şi plaja Grommet au devenit o atracţie unică în State, creată special pentru persoanele cu handicap. Turiştii de toate vârstele sunt supravegheaţi medical şi pot învăţa să facă, printre altele, şi surfing. Virginia Legends Walks sunt nişte tururi ghidate care merg pe urmele unori personalităţi culturale americane, care s-au născut sau au trăit în Virginia: Edgar Allen Poe, Ella Fitzgerald, Thomas Jefferson ori căpitanul John Smith.\r\n\r\nCu Ford, printre piraţi şi brânzeturi\r\nÎn Kansas – Oklahoma, turiştii pot participa la sute de evenimente de tip rodeo, acesta fiind sportul preferat al cowboy-lor din regiune. Sezonul începe în aprilie şi se termină în noiembrie, iar spectacolele au loc la sfârşitul săptămânii. Intrarea şi masa la un rodeo organizat la fermă costă în jur de 10 dolari – ne-a precizat Sandy Patlick, reprezentantul Departamentului de turism Oklahoma. La un alt stand ne-am întâlnit cu unul dintre cei mai vestiţi cowboy din Texas care Jay B. Brewer, care este “marca” de referinţă a Wildcatter Ranch, manageriat de Anne Street Skipper. Pentru prima dată la International POW WOW a fost prezent... Ford. Şi nu orice Ford, ne spune Charles Lundquist, directorul general al comaniei Mr. Toad’s Tours. Ci una dintre primele maşini produse de compania Ford care are venerabila vârstă de 100 de ani. Şi încă mai merge, degrabă ce încă mai e folosită pentru tururi exclusiviste. Tot asemenea tururi oferă şi Philp Ferentinos, directorul StarLine Tours. Ele acoperă însă zona celebrităţilor şi marilor personalităţi care sunt parte din legendarul Hollywood Boulevard din Los Angeles. Nici St. Augustine, cea mai veche localitate din Statele Unite, fondată de amiralul spaniol Pedro Menendez în 1565 nu se lasă mai prejos. Muzeul Piraţilor şi Comorilor este cea mai nouă atracţie turistică din oraş, deschisă cu şase luni în urmă, vis-a-vis de Castelul San Marcos, în centrul istoric – au subliniat directorii de comunicare Barbara Golden şi Jay Humphreys.\r\n\r\nCentral Valley a fost reprezentată la târg şi de directorul de PR şi Media, Susan Wilson. Aceasta e cea mai fertilă regiune a Californiei, faimoasă pentru produsele locale, de la vinuri şi brânzeturi, până la ferme de piersici. Despre ele şi alte atracţii, într-un reportaj viitor.\r\n\r\nDOINA, SÎNZIANA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul US TRAVEL ASSOCIATION şi TRAVELPORT ROMANIA\r\n\r\n\r\nMUNTENEGRU – LOCUL UNDE TE CHEAMĂ NATURA\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/muntenegru-2.jpg\" "\\"muntenegru")
Frumuseţea este greu de explicat, poate mai ales atunci când e vorba de natură. Ea ţine de lumină, culoare, un spirit al locului, un sentiment al zilei. În Muntenegru frumuseţea are ape de munte turcoaz, creste dramatice, un verde crud al pădurilor care te face să suspini aparent fără motiv. Lasă prejudecăţile şi riscă o destinaţie despre care nu ştii încă nimic!\r\n\r\nMuntenegru şi-a declarat independenţa faţă de Serbia în 2006. Deşi nu este un stat membru al UE a adoptat moneda euro, lucru care a facilitat viaţa celor aproximativ 600.000 de locuitori ai săi, care practică cu multă aplecare agricultura şi turismul. Ţara şi-a luat evoluţia foarte în serios şi, prin constituţie, se declară... “stat ecologic”. După o săptămână în Muntenegru, s-ar putea să aşezi destinaţia, în faţa Austriei ori Elveţiei, la multe capitole.\r\n\r\nPe valea Pivei\r\n\r\nPodgorica (Podgoriţa) este o capitală cochetă, străbătută de o apă. Câteva străzi paralele cu ea constituie un centru refăcut şi dichisit, de la felinare până la zona pietonală. Oraşul are un aer uşor provincial, foarte liniştit şi plăcut, fără blocuri, cu cartiere de case şi spaţii vezi pline de cedrii, magnolii, palmieri şi iasomie. O zi e de ajuns în zonă iar de aici începe aventura. Drumurile sunt excelente. Din cauza traficului redus, de multe ori nu este nevoie decât de o bandă pe sens. Varianta 4X4 este din nou cea recomandată pentru că majoritatea obiectivelor naturale se ating off-road, pe drumuri forestiere pavate cu piatră.\r\nDe la Podgoriţa spre nord, direcţia Nicsic, şoselele încep să urce către munte. Se unduiesc şi se pierd într-o mare de dealuri verzi, pline de flori, şi de mireasmă de grădină proaspăt cosită. Localităţile sunt foarte rare şi mai niciodată la marginea drumului, ceea ce îţi dă într-adevăr senzaţia că eşti mereu numai în natură. Râul Piva dar şi lacul artificial cu acelaşi nume te însoţesc cu trupul lor turcoaz, şepuitor, în paralel cu drumul, pentru aproape o oră de urcat. Nu sunt panouri cu reclame, nu sunt inscripţii, indicatoarele apar suficiente şi discrete, iar drumul taie în munte, trecând prin tunelele săpate în stâncă şi lăsate cu piatra lor, naturală, albiciosă.\r\n\r\nCâteva ore de condus pe crestele Munţilor Dormitor te lasă fără suflu, fără cuvinte, fără posibilitatea de a-ţi mai exprima încântarea.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/muntenegru-7.jpg\" "\\"muntenegru")
\r\nCanionul Suşiţa văzut de sus, de pe creste, îşi arată un fir de apă strălucitoare într-un hău zimţat, plin de pini negri pe marginile pietroase ale muntelui, cu pajişti alpine şi căsuţe răsfirate pe ambele părţi ale platoului. E greu de exprimat ori de surprins într-o imagine. Canionul are o adâncime maximă de 1300 de metri iar priveliştea este electrizantă, la fel ca şi jocul vulturilor care se lasă duşi de curenţii puternici de aer ai înălţimilor.\r\n\r\nSimfonie cu lacuri\r\n\r\nÎn fiecare zi se poate vedea câte un lac. Plimbările ţin ceva mai mult de o oră şi nu sunt de loc solicitante. Iar lacurile sunt unul şi unul, atât de diferite şi de frumoase. Cerno Iezero (Lacul negru) oglindeşte un fundal cu pădure şi munţii cu crestele înzăpezite. Lacul Suşiţa devine locul preferat al zilei în care îl vezi. E un ochi de apă într-o palmă protectoare a muntelui, cu o pajişte, o vilă discretă cu terasă. Ecou, linişte, miros, reflexie perfectă în apă. Şi poţi fi acolo singur, ori cu prietenii, izolat de grupurile gălăgioase de turişti de autocar, căci nu poţi ajunge decât pe drum forestier.\r\n\r\nMusai de văzut este lacul Biogradsko din rezervaţia naturală Biogradska Gora. Locul e uşor accesibil oricui fiind o zonă amenajată după toate regulile artei. De altfel în Muntenegru multe proiecte turistice sunt realizate în colaborare cu companii ori organizaţii italiene ori austriece. Casa de supraveghere a pădurarului e şi oficiu poştal şi magazinaş al rezervaţiei. În spatele său se lungeşte un mic ponton romantic, cu câteva bărci. Verdele crud luminează totul. Drumul marcat care dă ocol lacului e plin de plante, arţari, mesteceni cu frunze pufoase, pajişti întregi de leurdă, cu miros de usturoi. Locuitorii o culeg şi fac din ea ceea ce numesc “salata ursului”. În zona mlăştinoasă a rezervaţiei (o mică deltă pe râul Bjelasica) drumul este construit din scânduri de lemn şi suspendat pe piloni. Fost domeniu de vânătoare pădurea este protejată ca şi virgină. Are 2000 de specii de plante, copaci de câteva sute de ani şi, fiind rezervaţie naturală, totul se lasă la voia naturii - trunchiurile cad singure, putrezesc. Ele sunt tăiate sau mutate doar dacă blochează drumul de acces!!!\r\n\r\nCeva ce îţi lasă gura apă!\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/muntenegru-12.jpg\" "\\"muntenegru")
Kolasin e o staţiune de ski plăcută, unde găsiţi şi un hotel excelent încadrat în specificul locului (Lipka are ca temă de design lemnul). De aici eşti foarte aproape de râului Tara (canionul său de 86 de kilometri deţine statutul de cel mai lung din Europa) unde o zi e tocmai bună de petrecut făcând rafting. Dar nu numai aventura şi natura sunt de apreciat în Muntenegru. Mâncarea poate deveni scopul în sine al unei zile reuşite. Lăsaţi hotelurile şi restaurantele. Servirea mesei în bucătăria ori sufrageria unei familii este o experienţă de neegalat. Tăvile încinse, abia scoase de la cuptor, îţi lasă gura apă: plăcintă cu spanac, plăcintă cu brânză, cartofi fierţi, urzici fierte amestecate cu un fel de mălai fiert (arăta ca un piure), o pâine nemaipomenită, brânză de casă, o cană cu iaurt! Salatele sunt şi ele simple (varză murată, salata de leurdă din pădure) dar totul este incredibil de bun, mai ales după o dimineaţă în aer curat. Totul se serveşte ca la cazarmă, din ligheane de plastic şi se stropeşte cu tărie, vinul casei ori apă din fântână. Casele sunt răsfirate pe dealuri şi sunt în general construcţii noi, proprietarii însă nu exgerează cu culori ţipătoare, garduri de beton ori cu prea multe briz-briz-uri. Ţăranii sunt foarte dornici de a-şi arăta produsele gospodăriei, brânza şi şunca afumată tip prosciutto fiind un deliciu zilnic.\r\n\r\nFinal spre rivieră\r\nZona cea mai cunoscută şi mai vizitată din Muntenegru, plină de turişti dornici de plajă şi eternă distracţie, este litoralul Mării Adriatice. Cu un peisaj la fel de impresionant te aşteaptă fiordul Kotor, cu cele şase golfuri încâlcite ale sale şi cu localităţile cu aer italienesc. Drumurile coboară înguste, în serpentine foarte strânse spre mare iar Budva e o staţiune cu hoteluri şi cluburi, restaurante şi terase pentru toate gusturile. Prea turistic, îţi vine să spui după ce ai petrecut câteva zile în munţi. Cetatea Budvei e restaurată în întregime, plină de magazine pe străzile-i înguste, medievale doar în istoric, cu terase şi plasme enorme pentru urmărit seara meciuri ori emisiuni TV. Portul de yahturi private este o plăcere, ca în oricare alt colţ al Mediteranei iar o cină pe marginea apei, cu peşte şi fructe de mare, poate încheia cu brio vacanţa de povestit iubitorilor de călătorii frumoase.\r\n\r\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\nDOCUMENTARE REALIZATĂ CU SPRIJINUL RINA ADVENTURES','MAPAMOND NR.87 (IUNIE 2011)','','publish','open','open','','mapamond-nr-87-iunie-2011','','','2011-07-13 00:41:40','2011-07-12 22:41:40','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=428',0,'post','',0),(429,1,'2011-07-13 00:37:17','2011-07-12 22:37:17','Corespondenţă de la INTERNATIONAL POW WOW (I)\nLA SAN FRANCISCO S-A BĂTUT TOBA... TURISMULUI CU MARE FOLOS \nDupă 19 ani San Francisco a redevenit pentru câteva zile capitala specialiştilor în turismul american. A fost mare înghesuială pe metru pătrat la a 43-a ediţie a Târgului International POW WOW. Cam 5.000 de delegaţi, cumpărători şi vânzători, peste 400 de editori de travel. Cei din urmă au de câţiva ani buni International Market Place, un târg propriu în care dacă şti să-ţi strângi informaţiile poţi să scrii despre lumea turismului mult şi bine. Şi echipa noastră a fost de faţă, invitată la POW WOW pentru al 12 an consecutiv.\nAtât Joe D Alessandro, preşedintele Asociaţiei de Turism a oraşului cât şi Caroline Beteta, preşedinta Comisiei de Turism a Californiei, au provocat invitaţii cu o destinaţie „unică şi completă”. În 2010 statul California a primit 5,6 milioane de vizitatori străini (cu 16% mai mult decât în anul anterior) iar San Francisco a fost declarat, pentru al 18-lea an consecutiv, de către cititorii Conde Nast Traveler, drept oraşul american preferat. Roger Dow, preşedintele Asociaţiei de Turism a Statelor Unite (U.S Travel Association), a apreciat varietatea atracţiilor regiunii - „dacă ai fost într-un loc în California, atunci ai văzut doar un loc”-, anunţând pentru 2012 un alt oraş fabulos al statului ce va găzdui POW WOW: Los Angeles. Cea mai importantă noutate a fost înfiinţarea Corporaţiei pentru Promovare Turistică (Corporation for Travel Promotion). CTP este primul parteneriat public-privat din SUA care coordonează la nivel naţional un program de promovare a întregii SUA, ca o unică destinaţie, cu un unic concept, pentru piaţa internaţională. „Este extraordinar pentru întreaga industrie. Un lucru care, în primul rând va îmbunătăţi cunoştinţele călătorilor despre Statele Unite”- a spus Roger Dow.\n\n\nCum s-a născut Universul\nOrganizatorii au valorificat orice moment pentru a prezenta noi destinaţii ori idei. Prânzul oferit de Parcurile Naţionale ale Americii a promovat natura şi cele patru elemente ale sale (apa, aeru, pământul, focul) prin dansul unei trupe de indigeni. Statul Texas a magnetizat delegaţii cu o demonstraţie muzicală, plină de virtuozitate, susţinută de formaţia de cowboy a Universităţii Hardin-Simmons din Abilene. Serile în San Francisco au confirmat excelenta capacitate de planificare a evenimentelor. Celebrul Pier 39 a fost închis pentru public şi a ţinut toate restaurantele şi magazinele deschise pentru delegaţi. Între timp vasele au făcut minicroaziere către Alcatraz unde, pe lângă vizită, curioşii au putut degusta celebre vinuri de Napa Valley şi pune întrebări foştilor deţinuţi ori gardieni.\n\nCulture Club, un eveniment pregătit de California Academy of Sciences, a atras mii de delegaţi în muzeul Academiei. Invitaţii au făcut plimbări într-o pădure amazoniană, cu un microclimat recreat artificial sub un clopot de sticlă, cu o înălţime de patru etaje, unde au admirat sute de fluturi şi plante tropicale. Acvariul, expoziţia de reptile vii ori dioramele au încântat privirile. Atracţia serii a constituit-o Filmul despre Univers. Proiectat în cel mai mare Planetarium Dom digitalizat din lume, el a prilejuit o plimbare virtuală, din celula frunzei până în galaxiile spaţiului. Şi petrecerea de închidere a târgului a fost fantastică. Primăria din San Francisco a fost, pentru câteva ore „ecranul” unor proiecţii promoţionale şi locul unde au răsunat concerte de muzică clasică, rock, hip-hop etc. Piaţa din faţa edificiului a fost ocupată cu standuri şi corturi pline cu bunătăţuri şi vinuri oferite de producători celebri din Napa ori Sonoma.\n\n\nZâmbiţi, vă rog !\nDistracţia a fost una. Munca a fost alta. Adică prima. Din caruselul conferinţelor de presă, circa şase pe zi, am remarcat-o pe cea a zonei turistice Orlando. Cei doi primari ai Orange County şi ai oraşului, Orlando Teresa Jacobs şi Buddy Dyer, au anunţat că în 2010, datorită celor peste 51 de milioane de vizitatori, zona turistică Orlando a devenit destinaţia numărul 1 a SUA. Creşterea faţă de 2009, a fost de peste 11%. Dyer a spus că industria turismului din Orlando se exprimă prin peste 400.000 de locuri muncă care generează venituri peste 13,6 miliarde de dolari. În topul furnizorilor internaţionali se numără Canada, Marea Britanie şi Brazilia. Noua campanie de promovare şi marketing iniţiată pe principalele pieţe include conferinţe, simpozioane şi participări la târguri internaţionale. Ea se desfăşoară sub pălăria sloganurilor – „Orlando Makes Me Smile” şi „Where Inspiration Meets”.\n\nCe a mai inventat DoubleTree\nUn vechi prieten an revistei noastre Thomas Wingham, directorul de PR şi Marketing al DoubleTree by Hilton, ne-a adus o noutate absolută. Marea familie hotelieră şi-a propus să continue inovaţia pe segmentul de brand, pentru a apropia şi mai mult mărcile sale de turişti. Rebrandingul se desfăşoară pe parcursul întregului an. Investiţia în campania globală (ce acoperă 250 de hoteluri amplasate în 17 ţări), se ridică la 3 miliarde de dolari. Thomas a subliniat că „la DoubleTree desenul a fost schimbat cu o imagine mai atractivă. Aceasta se regăseşte tipărită deja pe cadoul tradiţional oferit clienţilor, celebrii biscuiţi marca... DoubleTree”. Conform sloganului aici e locul unde lucrurile mici înseamnă totul („Where the little things mean everything”).\n\nRon Kuhlman, vicepreşedintele biroului de promovare Virginia Beach (Coasta de Est) ne-a relatat despre noutăţile din regiunea sa. Parcul şi plaja Grommet au devenit o atracţie unică în State, creată special pentru persoanele cu handicap. Turiştii de toate vârstele sunt supravegheaţi medical şi pot învăţa să facă, printre altele, şi surfing. Virginia Legends Walks sunt nişte tururi ghidate care merg pe urmele unori personalităţi culturale americane, care s-au născut sau au trăit în Virginia: Edgar Allen Poe, Ella Fitzgerald, Thomas Jefferson ori căpitanul John Smith.\n\n\nCu Ford, printre piraţi şi brânzeturi\nÎn Kansas – Oklahoma, turiştii pot participa la sute de evenimente de tip rodeo, acesta fiind sportul preferat al cowboy-lor din regiune. Sezonul începe în aprilie şi se termină în noiembrie, iar spectacolele au loc la sfârşitul săptămânii. Intrarea şi masa la un rodeo organizat la fermă costă în jur de 10 dolari – ne-a precizat Sandy Patlick, reprezentantul Departamentului de turism Oklahoma. La un alt stand ne-am întâlnit cu unul dintre cei mai vestiţi cowboy din Texas care Jay B. Brewer, care este “marca” de referinţă a Wildcatter Ranch, manageriat de Anne Street Skipper. Pentru prima dată la International POW WOW a fost prezent... Ford. Şi nu orice Ford, ne spune Charles Lundquist, directorul general al comaniei Mr. Toad’s Tours. Ci una dintre primele maşini produse de compania Ford care are venerabila vârstă de 100 de ani. Şi încă mai merge, degrabă ce încă mai e folosită pentru tururi exclusiviste. Tot asemenea tururi oferă şi Philp Ferentinos, directorul StarLine Tours. Ele acoperă însă zona celebrităţilor şi marilor personalităţi care sunt parte din legendarul Hollywood Boulevard din Los Angeles. Nici St. Augustine, cea mai veche localitate din Statele Unite, fondată de amiralul spaniol Pedro Menendez în 1565 nu se lasă mai prejos. Muzeul Piraţilor şi Comorilor este cea mai nouă atracţie turistică din oraş, deschisă cu şase luni în urmă, vis-a-vis de Castelul San Marcos, în centrul istoric – au subliniat directorii de comunicare Barbara Golden şi Jay Humphreys.\n\nCentral Valley a fost reprezentată la târg şi de directorul de PR şi Media, Susan Wilson. Aceasta e cea mai fertilă regiune a Californiei, faimoasă pentru produsele locale, de la vinuri şi brânzeturi, până la ferme de piersici. Despre ele şi alte atracţii, într-un reportaj viitor.\n\nDOINA, SÎNZIANA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul US TRAVEL ASSOCIATION şi TRAVELPORT ROMANIA\n\n\n\nMUNTENEGRU – LOCUL UNDE TE CHEAMĂ NATURA\n\n\nFrumuseţea este greu de explicat, poate mai ales atunci când e vorba de natură. Ea ţine de lumină, culoare, un spirit al locului, un sentiment al zilei. În Muntenegru frumuseţea are ape de munte turcoaz, creste dramatice, un verde crud al pădurilor care te face să suspini aparent fără motiv. Lasă prejudecăţile şi riscă o destinaţie despre care nu ştii încă nimic!\n\nMuntenegru şi-a declarat independenţa faţă de Serbia în 2006. Deşi nu este un stat membru al UE a adoptat moneda euro, lucru care a facilitat viaţa celor aproximativ 600.000 de locuitori ai săi, care practică cu multă aplecare agricultura şi turismul. Ţara şi-a luat evoluţia foarte în serios şi, prin constituţie, se declară... “stat ecologic”. După o săptămână în Muntenegru, s-ar putea să aşezi destinaţia, în faţa Austriei ori Elveţiei, la multe capitole.\n\nPe valea Pivei\n\nPodgorica (Podgoriţa) este o capitală cochetă, străbătută de o apă. Câteva străzi paralele cu ea constituie un centru refăcut şi dichisit, de la felinare până la zona pietonală. Oraşul are un aer uşor provincial, foarte liniştit şi plăcut, fără blocuri, cu cartiere de case şi spaţii vezi pline de cedrii, magnolii, palmieri şi iasomie. O zi e de ajuns în zonă iar de aici începe aventura. Drumurile sunt excelente. Din cauza traficului redus, de multe ori nu este nevoie decât de o bandă pe sens. Varianta 4X4 este din nou cea recomandată pentru că majoritatea obiectivelor naturale se ating off-road, pe drumuri forestiere pavate cu piatră.\nDe la Podgoriţa spre nord, direcţia Nicsic, şoselele încep să urce către munte.

Invitaţii au făcut plimbări într-o pădure amazoniană, cu un microclimat recreat artificial sub un clopot de sticlă, cu o înălţime de patru etaje, unde au admirat sute de fluturi şi plante tropicale. Acvariul, expoziţia de reptile vii ori dioramele au încântat privirile. Atracţia serii a constituit-o Filmul despre Univers. Proiectat în cel mai mare Planetarium Dom digitalizat din lume, el a prilejuit o plimbare virtuală, din celula frunzei până în galaxiile spaţiului. Şi petrecerea de închidere a târgului a fost fantastică. Primăria din San Francisco a fost, pentru câteva ore „ecranul” unor proiecţii promoţionale şi locul unde au răsunat concerte de muzică clasică, rock, hip-hop etc. Piaţa din faţa edificiului a fost ocupată cu standuri şi corturi pline cu bunătăţuri şi vinuri oferite de producători celebri din Napa ori Sonoma.\n\nZâmbiţi, vă rog !\nDistracţia a fost una. Munca a fost alta. Adică prima. Din caruselul conferinţelor de presă, circa şase pe zi, am remarcat-o pe cea a zonei turistice Orlando. Cei doi primari ai Orange County şi ai oraşului, Orlando Teresa Jacobs şi Buddy Dyer, au anunţat că în 2010, datorită celor peste 51 de milioane de vizitatori, zona turistică Orlando a devenit destinaţia numărul 1 a SUA. Creşterea faţă de 2009, a fost de peste 11%. Dyer a spus că industria turismului din Orlando se exprimă prin peste 400.000 de locuri muncă care generează venituri peste 13,6 miliarde de dolari. În topul furnizorilor internaţionali se numără Canada, Marea Britanie şi Brazilia. Noua campanie de promovare şi marketing iniţiată pe principalele pieţe include conferinţe, simpozioane şi participări la târguri internaţionale. Ea se desfăşoară sub pălăria sloganurilor – „Orlando Makes Me Smile” şi „Where Inspiration Meets”.\n\nCe a mai inventat DoubleTree\nUn vechi prieten an revistei noastre Thomas Wingham, directorul de PR şi Marketing al DoubleTree by Hilton, ne-a adus o noutate absolută. Marea familie hotelieră şi-a propus să continue inovaţia pe segmentul de brand, pentru a apropia şi mai mult mărcile sale de turişti. Rebrandingul se desfăşoară pe parcursul întregului an. Investiţia în campania globală (ce acoperă 250 de hoteluri amplasate în 17 ţări), se ridică la 3 miliarde de dolari. Thomas a subliniat că „la DoubleTree desenul a fost schimbat cu o imagine mai atractivă. Aceasta se regăseşte tipărită deja pe cadoul tradiţional oferit clienţilor, celebrii biscuiţi marca... DoubleTree”. Conform sloganului aici e locul unde lucrurile mici înseamnă totul („Where the little things mean everything”).\n\nRon Kuhlman, vicepreşedintele biroului de promovare Virginia Beach (Coasta de Est) ne-a relatat despre noutăţile din regiunea sa. Parcul şi plaja Grommet au devenit o atracţie unică în State, creată special pentru persoanele cu handicap. Turiştii de toate vârstele sunt supravegheaţi medical şi pot învăţa să facă, printre altele, şi surfing. Virginia Legends Walks sunt nişte tururi ghidate care merg pe urmele unori personalităţi culturale americane, care s-au născut sau au trăit în Virginia: Edgar Allen Poe, Ella Fitzgerald, Thomas Jefferson ori căpitanul John Smith.\n\nCu Ford, printre piraţi şi brânzeturi\nÎn Kansas – Oklahoma, turiştii pot participa la sute de evenimente de tip rodeo, acesta fiind sportul preferat al cowboy-lor din regiune. Sezonul începe în aprilie şi se termină în noiembrie, iar spectacolele au loc la sfârşitul săptămânii. Intrarea şi masa la un rodeo organizat la fermă costă în jur de 10 dolari – ne-a precizat Sandy Patlick, reprezentantul Departamentului de turism Oklahoma. La un alt stand ne-am întâlnit cu unul dintre cei mai vestiţi cowboy din Texas care Jay B. Brewer, care este “marca” de referinţă a Wildcatter Ranch, manageriat de Anne Street Skipper. Pentru prima dată la International POW WOW a fost prezent... Ford. Şi nu orice Ford, ne spune Charles Lundquist, directorul general al comaniei Mr. Toad’s Tours. Ci una dintre primele maşini produse de compania Ford care are venerabila vârstă de 100 de ani. Şi încă mai merge, degrabă ce încă mai e folosită pentru tururi exclusiviste. Tot asemenea tururi oferă şi Philp Ferentinos, directorul StarLine Tours. Ele acoperă însă zona celebrităţilor şi marilor personalităţi care sunt parte din legendarul Hollywood Boulevard din Los Angeles. Nici St. Augustine, cea mai veche localitate din Statele Unite, fondată de amiralul spaniol Pedro Menendez în 1565 nu se lasă mai prejos. Muzeul Piraţilor şi Comorilor este cea mai nouă atracţie turistică din oraş, deschisă cu şase luni în urmă, vis-a-vis de Castelul San Marcos, în centrul istoric – au subliniat directorii de comunicare Barbara Golden şi Jay Humphreys.\n\nCentral Valley a fost reprezentată la târg şi de directorul de PR şi Media, Susan Wilson. Aceasta e cea mai fertilă regiune a Californiei, faimoasă pentru produsele locale, de la vinuri şi brânzeturi, până la ferme de piersici. Despre ele şi alte atracţii, într-un reportaj viitor.\n\nDOINA, SÎNZIANA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul US TRAVEL ASSOCIATION şi TRAVELPORT ROMANIA\n\n\nMUNTENEGRU – LOCUL UNDE TE CHEAMĂ NATURA\nFrumuseţea este greu de explicat, poate mai ales atunci când e vorba de natură. Ea ţine de lumină, culoare, un spirit al locului, un sentiment al zilei. În Muntenegru frumuseţea are ape de munte turcoaz, creste dramatice, un verde crud al pădurilor care te face să suspini aparent fără motiv. Lasă prejudecăţile şi riscă o destinaţie despre care nu ştii încă nimic!\n\nMuntenegru şi-a declarat independenţa faţă de Serbia în 2006. Deşi nu este un stat membru al UE a adoptat moneda euro, lucru care a facilitat viaţa celor aproximativ 600.000 de locuitori ai săi, care practică cu multă aplecare agricultura şi turismul. Ţara şi-a luat evoluţia foarte în serios şi, prin constituţie, se declară... “stat ecologic”. După o săptămână în Muntenegru, s-ar putea să aşezi destinaţia, în faţa Austriei ori Elveţiei, la multe capitole.\n\nPe valea Pivei\n\nPodgorica (Podgoriţa) este o capitală cochetă, străbătută de o apă. Câteva străzi paralele cu ea constituie un centru refăcut şi dichisit, de la felinare până la zona pietonală. Oraşul are un aer uşor provincial, foarte liniştit şi plăcut, fără blocuri, cu cartiere de case şi spaţii vezi pline de cedrii, magnolii, palmieri şi iasomie. O zi e de ajuns în zonă iar de aici începe aventura. Drumurile sunt excelente. Din cauza traficului redus, de multe ori nu este nevoie decât de o bandă pe sens. Varianta 4X4 este din nou cea recomandată pentru că majoritatea obiectivelor naturale se ating off-road, pe drumuri forestiere pavate cu piatră.\nDe la Podgoriţa spre nord, direcţia Nicsic, şoselele încep să urce către munte. Se unduiesc şi se pierd într-o mare de dealuri verzi, pline de flori, şi de mireasmă de grădină proaspăt cosită. Localităţile sunt foarte rare şi mai niciodată la marginea drumului, ceea ce îţi dă într-adevăr senzaţia că eşti mereu numai în natură. Râul Piva dar şi lacul artificial cu acelaşi nume te însoţesc cu trupul lor turcoaz, şepuitor, în paralel cu drumul, pentru aproape o oră de urcat. Nu sunt panouri cu reclame, nu sunt inscripţii, indicatoarele apar suficiente şi discrete, iar drumul taie în munte, trecând prin tunelele săpate în stâncă şi lăsate cu piatra lor, naturală, albiciosă.\n\nCâteva ore de condus pe crestele Munţilor Dormitor te lasă fără suflu, fără cuvinte, fără posibilitatea de a-ţi mai exprima încântarea.\nCanionul Suşiţa văzut de sus, de pe creste, îşi arată un fir de apă strălucitoare într-un hău zimţat, plin de pini negri pe marginile pietroase ale muntelui, cu pajişti alpine şi căsuţe răsfirate pe ambele părţi ale platoului. E greu de exprimat ori de surprins într-o imagine. Canionul are o adâncime maximă de 1300 de metri iar priveliştea este electrizantă, la fel ca şi jocul vulturilor care se lasă duşi de curenţii puternici de aer ai înălţimilor.\n\nSimfonie cu lacuri\n\nÎn fiecare zi se poate vedea câte un lac. Plimbările ţin ceva mai mult de o oră şi nu sunt de loc solicitante. Iar lacurile sunt unul şi unul, atât de diferite şi de frumoase. Cerno Iezero (Lacul negru) oglindeşte un fundal cu pădure şi munţii cu crestele înzăpezite. Lacul Suşiţa devine locul preferat al zilei în care îl vezi. E un ochi de apă într-o palmă protectoare a muntelui, cu o pajişte, o vilă discretă cu terasă. Ecou, linişte, miros, reflexie perfectă în apă. Şi poţi fi acolo singur, ori cu prietenii, izolat de grupurile gălăgioase de turişti de autocar, căci nu poţi ajunge decât pe drum forestier.\n\nMusai de văzut este lacul Biogradsko din rezervaţia naturală Biogradska Gora. Locul e uşor accesibil oricui fiind o zonă amenajată după toate regulile artei. De altfel în Muntenegru multe proiecte turistice sunt realizate în colaborare cu companii ori organizaţii italiene ori austriece. Casa de supraveghere a pădurarului e şi oficiu poştal şi magazinaş al rezervaţiei. În spatele său se lungeşte un mic ponton romantic, cu câteva bărci. Verdele crud luminează totul. Drumul marcat care dă ocol lacului e plin de plante, arţari, mesteceni cu frunze pufoase, pajişti întregi de leurdă, cu miros de usturoi. Locuitorii o culeg şi fac din ea ceea ce numesc “salata ursului”. În zona mlăştinoasă a rezervaţiei (o mică deltă pe râul Bjelasica) drumul este construit din scânduri de lemn şi suspendat pe piloni. Fost domeniu de vânătoare pădurea este protejată ca şi virgină. Are 2000 de specii de plante, copaci de câteva sute de ani şi, fiind rezervaţie naturală, totul se lasă la voia naturii - trunchiurile cad singure, putrezesc. Ele sunt tăiate sau mutate doar dacă blochează drumul de acces!!!\n\nCeva ce îţi lasă gura apă!\nKolasin e o staţiune de ski plăcută, unde găsiţi şi un hotel excelent încadrat în specificul locului (Lipka are ca temă de design lemnul). De aici eşti foarte aproape de râului Tara (canionul său de 86 de kilometri deţine statutul de cel mai lung din Europa) unde o zi e tocmai bună de petrecut făcând rafting. Dar nu numai aventura şi natura sunt de apreciat în Muntenegru. Mâncarea poate deveni scopul în sine al unei zile reuşite. Lăsaţi hotelurile şi restaurantele. Servirea mesei în bucătăria ori sufrageria unei familii este o experienţă de neegalat. Tăvile încinse, abia scoase de la cuptor, îţi lasă gura apă: plăcintă cu spanac, plăcintă cu brânză, cartofi fierţi, urzici fierte amestecate cu un fel de mălai fiert (arăta ca un piure), o pâine nemaipomenită, brânză de casă, o cană cu iaurt! Salatele sunt şi ele simple (varză murată, salata de leurdă din pădure) dar totul este incredibil de bun, mai ales după o dimineaţă în aer curat. Totul se serveşte ca la cazarmă, din ligheane de plastic şi se stropeşte cu tărie, vinul casei ori apă din fântână. Casele sunt răsfirate pe dealuri şi sunt în general construcţii noi, proprietarii însă nu exgerează cu culori ţipătoare, garduri de beton ori cu prea multe briz-briz-uri. Ţăranii sunt foarte dornici de a-şi arăta produsele gospodăriei, brânza şi şunca afumată tip prosciutto fiind un deliciu zilnic.\n\nFinal spre rivieră\nZona cea mai cunoscută şi mai vizitată din Muntenegru, plină de turişti dornici de plajă şi eternă distracţie, este litoralul Mării Adriatice. Cu un peisaj la fel de impresionant te aşteaptă fiordul Kotor, cu cele şase golfuri încâlcite ale sale şi cu localităţile cu aer italienesc. Drumurile coboară înguste, în serpentine foarte strânse spre mare iar Budva e o staţiune cu hoteluri şi cluburi, restaurante şi terase pentru toate gusturile. Prea turistic, îţi vine să spui după ce ai petrecut câteva zile în munţi. Cetatea Budvei e restaurată în întregime, plină de magazine pe străzile-i înguste, medievale doar în istoric, cu terase şi plasme enorme pentru urmărit seara meciuri ori emisiuni TV. Portul de yahturi private este o plăcere, ca în oricare alt colţ al Mediteranei iar o cină pe marginea apei, cu peşte şi fructe de mare, poate încheia cu brio vacanţa de povestit iubitorilor de călătorii frumoase.\n\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\nDOCUMENTARE REALIZATĂ CU SPRIJINUL RINA ADVENTURES','MAPAMOND NR.87 (IUNIE 2011)','','inherit','open','open','','428-autosave','','','2011-07-13 00:40:22','2011-07-12 22:40:22','',428,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/07/13/428-autosave/',0,'revision','',0),(434,1,'2011-07-13 00:40:39','2011-07-12 22:40:39','','muntenegru 2','','inherit','open','open','','muntenegru-2','','','2011-07-13 00:40:39','2011-07-12 22:40:39','',428,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/muntenegru-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(435,1,'2011-07-13 00:41:04','2011-07-12 22:41:04','','muntenegru 7','','inherit','open','open','','muntenegru-7','','','2011-07-13 00:41:04','2011-07-12 22:41:04','',428,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/muntenegru-7.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(436,1,'2011-07-13 00:41:23','2011-07-12 22:41:23','','muntenegru 12','','inherit','open','open','','muntenegru-12','','','2011-07-13 00:41:23','2011-07-12 22:41:23','',428,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/muntenegru-12.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(437,1,'2011-07-13 00:37:19','2011-07-12 22:37:19','Corespondenţă de la INTERNATIONAL POW WOW (I)\r\nLA SAN FRANCISCO S-A BĂTUT TOBA... TURISMULUI CU MARE FOLOS \r\nDupă 19 ani San Francisco a redevenit pentru câteva zile capitala specialiştilor în turismul american. A fost mare înghesuială pe metru pătrat la a 43-a ediţie a Târgului International POW WOW. Cam 5.000 de delegaţi, cumpărători şi vânzători, peste 400 de editori de travel. Cei din urmă au de câţiva ani buni International Market Place, un târg propriu în care dacă şti să-ţi strângi informaţiile poţi să scrii despre lumea turismului mult şi bine. Şi echipa noastră a fost de faţă, invitată la POW WOW pentru al 12 an consecutiv.\r\nAtât Joe D Alessandro, preşedintele Asociaţiei de Turism a oraşului cât şi Caroline Beteta, preşedinta Comisiei de Turism a Californiei, au provocat invitaţii cu o destinaţie „unică şi completă”. În 2010 statul California a primit 5,6 milioane de vizitatori străini (cu 16% mai mult decât în anul anterior) iar San Francisco a fost declarat, pentru al 18-lea an consecutiv, de către cititorii Conde Nast Traveler, drept oraşul american preferat. Roger Dow, preşedintele Asociaţiei de Turism a Statelor Unite (U.S Travel Association), a apreciat varietatea atracţiilor regiunii - „dacă ai fost într-un loc în California, atunci ai văzut doar un loc”-, anunţând pentru 2012 un alt oraş fabulos al statului ce va găzdui POW WOW: Los Angeles. Cea mai importantă noutate a fost înfiinţarea Corporaţiei pentru Promovare Turistică (Corporation for Travel Promotion). CTP este primul parteneriat public-privat din SUA care coordonează la nivel naţional un program de promovare a întregii SUA, ca o unică destinaţie, cu un unic concept, pentru piaţa internaţională. „Este extraordinar pentru întreaga industrie. Un lucru care, în primul rând va îmbunătăţi cunoştinţele călătorilor despre Statele Unite”- a spus Roger Dow.\r\n\r\n\r\nCum s-a născut Universul\r\nOrganizatorii au valorificat orice moment pentru a prezenta noi destinaţii ori idei. Prânzul oferit de Parcurile Naţionale ale Americii a promovat natura şi cele patru elemente ale sale (apa, aeru, pământul, focul) prin dansul unei trupe de indigeni. Statul Texas a magnetizat delegaţii cu o demonstraţie muzicală, plină de virtuozitate, susţinută de formaţia de cowboy a Universităţii Hardin-Simmons din Abilene. Serile în San Francisco au confirmat excelenta capacitate de planificare a evenimentelor. Celebrul Pier 39 a fost închis pentru public şi a ţinut toate restaurantele şi magazinele deschise pentru delegaţi. Între timp vasele au făcut minicroaziere către Alcatraz unde, pe lângă vizită, curioşii au putut degusta celebre vinuri de Napa Valley şi pune întrebări foştilor deţinuţi ori gardieni.\r\n\r\nCulture Club, un eveniment pregătit de California Academy of Sciences, a atras mii de delegaţi în muzeul Academiei.

Locuitorii o culeg şi fac din ea ceea ce numesc “salata ursului”. În zona mlăştinoasă a rezervaţiei (o mică deltă pe râul Bjelasica) drumul este construit din scânduri de lemn şi suspendat pe piloni. Fost domeniu de vânătoare pădurea este protejată ca şi virgină. Are 2000 de specii de plante, copaci de câteva sute de ani şi, fiind rezervaţie naturală, totul se lasă la voia naturii - trunchiurile cad singure, putrezesc. Ele sunt tăiate sau mutate doar dacă blochează drumul de acces!!!\r\n\r\nCeva ce îţi lasă gura apă!\r\n\r\nKolasin e o staţiune de ski plăcută, unde găsiţi şi un hotel excelent încadrat în specificul locului (Lipka are ca temă de design lemnul). De aici eşti foarte aproape de râului Tara (canionul său de 86 de kilometri deţine statutul de cel mai lung din Europa) unde o zi e tocmai bună de petrecut făcând rafting. Dar nu numai aventura şi natura sunt de apreciat în Muntenegru. Mâncarea poate deveni scopul în sine al unei zile reuşite. Lăsaţi hotelurile şi restaurantele. Servirea mesei în bucătăria ori sufrageria unei familii este o experienţă de neegalat. Tăvile încinse, abia scoase de la cuptor, îţi lasă gura apă: plăcintă cu spanac, plăcintă cu brânză, cartofi fierţi, urzici fierte amestecate cu un fel de mălai fiert (arăta ca un piure), o pâine nemaipomenită, brânză de casă, o cană cu iaurt! Salatele sunt şi ele simple (varză murată, salata de leurdă din pădure) dar totul este incredibil de bun, mai ales după o dimineaţă în aer curat. Totul se serveşte ca la cazarmă, din ligheane de plastic şi se stropeşte cu tărie, vinul casei ori apă din fântână. Casele sunt răsfirate pe dealuri şi sunt în general construcţii noi, proprietarii însă nu exgerează cu culori ţipătoare, garduri de beton ori cu prea multe briz-briz-uri. Ţăranii sunt foarte dornici de a-şi arăta produsele gospodăriei, brânza şi şunca afumată tip prosciutto fiind un deliciu zilnic.\r\n\r\nFinal spre rivieră\r\n\r\nZona cea mai cunoscută şi mai vizitată din Muntenegru, plină de turişti dornici de plajă şi eternă distracţie, este litoralul Mării Adriatice. Cu un peisaj la fel de impresionant te aşteaptă fiordul Kotor, cu cele şase golfuri încâlcite ale sale şi cu localităţile cu aer italienesc. Drumurile coboară înguste, în serpentine foarte strânse spre mare iar Budva e o staţiune cu hoteluri şi cluburi, restaurante şi terase pentru toate gusturile. Prea turistic, îţi vine să spui după ce ai petrecut câteva zile în munţi. Cetatea Budvei e restaurată în întregime, plină de magazine pe străzile-i înguste, medievale doar în istoric, cu terase şi plasme enorme pentru urmărit seara meciuri ori emisiuni TV. Portul de yahturi private este o plăcere, ca în oricare alt colţ al Mediteranei iar o cină pe marginea apei, cu peşte şi fructe de mare, poate încheia cu brio vacanţa de povestit iubitorilor de călătorii frumoase.\r\n\r\n\r\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDOCUMENTARE REALIZATĂ CU SPRIJINUL RINA ADVENTURES','MAPAMOND NR.87 (IUNIE 2011)','','inherit','open','open','','428-revision-2','','','2011-07-13 00:37:19','2011-07-12 22:37:19','',428,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/07/13/428-revision-2/',0,'revision','',0),(438,1,'2011-07-13 00:49:46','2011-07-12 22:49:46','LUCIAN BORONEA: „Deciziile luate într-un business au viaţa lor.

E un ardelean atipic. Conduce compania de turism Accent Travel & Events poziţie pe care a ocupat-o din 1999, când s-a şi înfiinţat agenţia. S-a născut în 1970 la Topliţa şi în acelaşi oraş harghitean a absolvit şi colegiul “Ovidiu Tăslăuanu”. În 1994 a terminat Facultatea de Comerţ a Academiei de Studii Economice din Bucureşti, specializarea Relatii Economice Internationale.\r\nStudiile au fost una, dar pasiunea pentru aviaţie s-a infiltrat rapid în cariera sa. Până la începutul anului 1995, a absolvit cursuri de marketing şi vânzări organizate de către Air France. A urmat mai multe cursuri de management aviatic, precum si pe cele de ticketing organizate de Tarom şi ANAT. De Tarom, companie la care şi soţia sa Corina a lucrat mulţi ani îl leagă mai multe experienţe de carieră. Aici a lucrat ca Assistant route manager, unde a evaluat şi analizat strategiile de zbor şi marketingul practicat ale competitorilor pe rute ca Israel, India şi Thailanda. Tot atunci a început să se sudeze primele relaţii cu lumea agenţiilor de turism şi s-a întâlnit cu lideri reprezentativi la New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami , Toronto, Montreal.\r\nÎntr-o lume grăbită el a devenit membru al „clubului” oamenilor de afaceri tineri, care ascultă şi evaluează cu rapiditate o relaţie. Pe Lucian Boronea l-am cunoscut cu mai bine de 10 ani în urmă. Pe atunci punctul lui forte nu era în niciun caz comunicarea. Acum e total schimbat. Poate şi pentru că are foarte multe idei interesante de transmis.\r\n\r\n\r\n- Comerţ, aviaţie, turism, management corporativ. Sunt etape ale unei cariere programate sau schimbările au fost determinate de oportunităţile apărute?\r\n\r\n- Facultatea de Comerţ a fost singura etapă cu adevarat programată, în urma deciziei de a mă înscrie la examenul de admitere! La Tarom am ajuns în urma unui proces de selecţie complex, iar anunţul privind recrutarea organizată de Tarom l-am citit la avizierul facultăţii. Am intrat în contact cu lumea agenţiilor de turism pe perioada angajării la compania naţională, după care am înfiinţat agenţia Accent Travel & Events în 1999. La început am făcut mult ticketing (asta ştiam să fac) şi turism, după care opţiunea a fost spre business travel, odată cu venirea companiilor multinaţionale începând, mai ales, cu 2002-2004. A urmat apoi în 2009 câştigarea licenţei Egencia (parte a grupului Expedia) pentru România şi transformarea agenţiei în ceea ce se numeşte „travel management company”. Aş putea spune că există un mixt între opţiuni programate, întâmplări şi oportunităţi !\r\n\r\n- Relativ puţini tineri din generaţia ta au abordat ulterior mediul economic privat ? Cum explici acest lucru? \r\n\r\n- Dupa cinci ani petrecuţi la Tarom, obiectivele stabilite şi planurile propuse la angajare de către respectiva conducere – şi care a făcut prima infuzie de tineri dupa 20 de ani -, erau tot mai departe de a putea fi realizate. Am făcut parte dintr-un grup de vreo 60 de studenţi selectaţi din ultimul an de facultate şi din care am fost angajaţi, după, cam 40 . Am urmat un an de training în toate departamentele companiei, de la financiar şi comercial, la ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Boronea-grup.jpg\" "\\"Boronea")
ticketing, cargo, operaţional, tarife şi strategii. A fost cel mai complex program de pregătire pe care l-am urmat până în prezent! Eram foarte pasionaţi, dar inerţia sistemului era foarte mare. Aşa că decizia de a pleca în mediul privat a venit într-un mod firesc.\r\n\r\n- Eşti „presat” de două generaţii. Una care îşi conservă teritorialitatea şi valorile câştigate, îţi sugerează că eşti prea tânăr şi mai poţi aştepta în business. Cealaltă, agitată şi căutătoare de noi forme de exprimare economică, parcă îţi spune cu discreţie că... a venit timpul să înveţi ritmurile noi ale celor care vin. Cum percepi presiunea celor două lumi? \r\n\r\n- Cu prima generaţie lupta a fost mai uşoară. O simţeam, îi studiasem obiceiurile, veneam cu idei noi şi echipă puternică. Am purtat multe “bătălii” şi mi-am câştigat, zic eu, locul şi respectul lor. Generaţia nouă este însă total diferită de cea veche, chiar şi faţă de generaţia mea. Este agresivă şi cu un arsenal nou. Trebuie să reinventezi businessul şi să ţi pasul cu ea, altfel eşti rapid depăşit. Dar cred că este firesc să se întâmple aşa. Fiecare generaţie are frumuseţea ei şi, categoric, este diferită de cealaltă. În business şi în viaţa de zi cu zi.\r\n\r\n- În 2008 ai absolvit cursurile The Royal Institute of Hospitality Management, organizate la Bucureşti în cooperare cu Ecole Hoteliere de Lausanne. Atipic pentru un travel agent. Ce plus-valoare a generat această Şcoală în abordările de business ulterioare?\r\n\r\n- Cred în pregătirea continuă. A fost una dintre cele mai puternice experienţe de “învăţare”. Cel mai interesant pentru mine nu a fost că am învăţat lucruri noi, ci faptul că anumite procese, situaţii, modele de business pe care le aplicam la agenţie din instinct am realizat că există şi în cărţi şi au un “nume”. Mi-am cumpărat un carneţel în care îmi notam toate ideile care îmi veneau în minte în timpul cursurilor şi pe care aş fi putut să le aplic la agenţie. Unele s-au dovedit fanteziste, altele le-am implemenat ulterior! Şcoala de la Lausanne a făcut pasul de la şcoala hotelieră la şcoala din industria ospitalităţii.\r\n\r\n\r\n- Ai fost un promotor important al pieţelor de nişă. Apoi al celor de incoming. După o vreme aproape că ai abandonat segmentul şi te-ai orientat aproape exclusiv spre turismul de afaceri. Azi te preocupă din nou piaţa turistică internă. Au crescut în atractivitate produsele turistice autohtone în ultimul deceniu? \r\n\r\n- Unele au reuşit sa-şi menţină sau chiar să-şi crească valoarea: circuitele culturale, Delta Dunării, Bucovina, Cetăţile medievale din Transilvania. Altele şi-au redus importanţa, în special Litoralul, turismul şcolar sau circuitele generale. Dar cel mai mult Litoralul. Este un produs care a expirat. Asta reiese şi din planurile de dezvoltare conturate pentru România de către experţi internaţionali. Dacă vrem să-l readucem pe piaţa concurenţială va trebuie o repoziţionare a lui cu un puternic sprijin al statului, o subvenţie generată indirect prin reducerea unor taxe care sufocă un turism ce se exercită doar 2-3 luni pe an. Cea mai acută problemă este forţa de muncă unde trebuie pusă la punct o strategie pe termen lung. Nu poţi face calitate cu stagiari şi lucrători sezonieri. În plus, unii dintre ei n-au nicio chemare pentru turism. Câteva staţiuni balneare şi-au „revenit”- şi aici aş menţiona în special Băile Felix şi Covasna. Altele au suferit nemeritat – mă refer la Herculane şi Borsec, unde din fericire observ că încep să fie implementate proiecte pentru viitor. Incomingul ofera cifre derizorii în ceea ce priveşte numărul de turişti atraşi. Cauzele sunt multiple, explicaţiile diverse, cifrele sunt însă seci şi triste.\r\n\r\n\r\n- Cei mai mulţi confraţi de breaslă afirmă că profitul cel mai însemnat este obţinut din activităţile de outgoing şi ca atare acestea merită dezvoltate! Are o explicaţie această tendinţă!\r\n\r\n- Turismul de outgoing este mai uşor de făcut (fără supărare) decât incomingul sau turismul de afaceri. Şi mai profitabil. Riscurile sunt mai mici, cel puţin cele legate de calitatea produselor. Cele financiare trebuie cu grijă evident, calculate.\r\n\r\n- Ne promovăm ca o ţară cu oameni ospitalieri. Crezi că turiştii străini sunt pregătiţi şi încântaţi să guste o... ospitalitate românească, zgomotoasă şi colorată ?\r\n\r\n- Este foarte important să creezi aşteptarea şi să îi setezi parametrii. Dacă prin ceea ce promovezi la târguri (către clienţii finali) sau agenţiile partenere, prin pliante, broşuri etc, setezi bine nivelul aşteptărilor, nu ai probleme. Am observat că străinii au o părere bună despre România (în general), iar cei care vin aici ştiu ce vor găsi. Trebuie să ai pasiune pentru a oferi excelenţa în servicii. Personal cred că opţionalele sunt sarea şi piperul unei vacanţe. Alături de programele clasice poţi oferi tururi de neuitat şi deci şi atracţii... exotice cu le numeşti tu. De exemplu pe mine m-a încântat să merg cu cămila în Egipt şi elefanţii în Thailanda. Cred că pentru cine nu a călărit vreodată un cal sau un măgar, experienţa e similară. Noi rămânem încântaţi, când mergem în străinitate, de dansurile din buric, flamenco, fado, berbere, provensale etc. În aceaşi măsură sunt şi străinii când văd fabulosul dans al căluşarilor, de exemplu. În fiecare lucru descoperit se ascunde o mare doză de frumuseţe unică.\r\n\r\n- Cu ce proiect viabil de turism am putea performa pe piaţa internaţională!\r\n\r\n- Turismul balnear – avem resursa naturală, de cură. Nu există asemenea concentrări în altă parte. Soarele „a fost confiscat” deja de rivierele turcă, greacă, spaniolă, italiană sau bulgară. Am pierdut bătălia. Golful l-au luat alţii. Domeniile schiabile din ţări precum Franţa, Austria sau Italia nu cred că le vom putea concura curând. Să fim realişti. Acest tip de produs ar putea oferi şi volume, deci mulţi turişti, multe încasări, business 365 de zile pe an.\r\n\r\n- Ai pasiuni sportive de genul tenis de câmp, karate care se îmbină cu cele muzicale, din zona Rhythm & Blues şi rock progresiv. Cu tradiţiile româneşti cum stai?\r\n\r\n- M-am născut la sat, iar mama m-a învăţat dansurile şi obiceiurile zonei. Şi acum merg cu mare plăcere la colindat cu ocazia Crăciunului, cu prietenii mei din Topliţa sau Târgu Mureş. În ajun, ne strângem cu toţii, repetăm cântecele, ne acordăm chitările, şi abia aşteptăm să plecăm la colindat la fiecare casă.\r\n\r\n- La 41 de ani te consideri un tip realizat? Pot fi îmbinate viaţa şi afacerile, în acelaşi film de succes? \r\n\r\n- Categoric. Dacă tu eşti regizorul ! Dacă eşti suficient de bun, îţi iese un film de Oscar. Daca nu, nu. Firul care leagă şi ţine echilibrul între afacere şi familie este foarte fragil. Atunci când construieşti afacerea îi dedici mai mult timp decât familiei. Este firesc până la un punct. Când afacerea devine matură, echipa de management sudată, începi să ai mai mult timp. Din fericire pentru mine, la momentul “maturizarii” agenţiei au venit şi copii, în 2008.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_441\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Lucian Boronea \"]![\"Lucian](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Botronea-5.jpg\" "\\"Lucian")

Mă relaxează mai mult decât orice loc din lume. Mănăstirile pictate din Moldova. Cetăţile săseşti din Transilvania.\r\n\r\n- Dar în lume. Care sunt cele trei locurile de călătorie pe care le preferi. Şi de ce!\r\n\r\n- Grecia, în special insulele Creta şi Santorini - pentru ca oamenii locului ştiu să se distreze şi sunt mândri de originile lor. Orientul îndepartat: Japonia, China, Thailanda, Cambogia sau Vietnam. Africa de Sud – unde nu am fost încă, care mi-o planific să o vizitez de mulţi ani şi mi-o redefinesc pe măsură ce citesc sau aud experienţe de călătorie.\r\n\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','INTERVIU LUCIAN BORONEA NR.87 (IUNIE 2011)','','publish','open','open','','interviu-lucian-boronea-nr-87-iunie-2011','','','2011-07-13 00:49:46','2011-07-12 22:49:46','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=438',0,'post','',0),(439,1,'2011-07-13 00:47:26','2011-07-12 22:47:26','','Boronea 2','','inherit','open','open','','boronea-2','','','2011-07-13 00:47:26','2011-07-12 22:47:26','',438,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Boronea-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(440,1,'2011-07-13 00:48:11','2011-07-12 22:48:11','','Boronea grup','','inherit','open','open','','boronea-grup','','','2011-07-13 00:48:11','2011-07-12 22:48:11','',438,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Boronea-grup.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(441,1,'2011-07-13 00:48:55','2011-07-12 22:48:55','Lucian Boronea ','Lucian Boronea ','Lucian Boronea ','inherit','open','open','','botronea-5','','','2011-07-13 00:48:55','2011-07-12 22:48:55','',438,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Botronea-5.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(442,1,'2011-07-13 00:48:26','2011-07-12 22:48:26','LUCIAN BORONEA: „Deciziile luate într-un business au viaţa lor.

În fiecare lucru descoperit se ascunde o mare doză de frumuseţe unică.\n\n- Cu ce proiect viabil de turism am putea performa pe piaţa internaţională!\n\n- Turismul balnear – avem resursa naturală, de cură. Nu există asemenea concentrări în altă parte. Soarele „a fost confiscat” deja de rivierele turcă, greacă, spaniolă, italiană sau bulgară. Am pierdut bătălia. Golful l-au luat alţii. Domeniile schiabile din ţări precum Franţa, Austria sau Italia nu cred că le vom putea concura curând. Să fim realişti. Acest tip de produs ar putea oferi şi volume, deci mulţi turişti, multe încasări, business 365 de zile pe an.\n\n- Ai pasiuni sportive de genul tenis de câmp, karate care se îmbină cu cele muzicale, din zona Rhythm & Blues şi rock progresiv. Cu tradiţiile româneşti cum stai?\n\n- M-am născut la sat, iar mama m-a învăţat dansurile şi obiceiurile zonei. Şi acum merg cu mare plăcere la colindat cu ocazia Crăciunului, cu prietenii mei din Topliţa sau Târgu Mureş. În ajun, ne strângem cu toţii, repetăm cântecele, ne acordăm chitările, şi abia aşteptăm să plecăm la colindat la fiecare casă.\n\n- La 41 de ani te consideri un tip realizat? Pot fi îmbinate viaţa şi afacerile, în acelaşi film de succes? \n\n- Categoric. Dacă tu eşti regizorul ! Dacă eşti suficient de bun, îţi iese un film de Oscar. Daca nu, nu. Firul care leagă şi ţine echilibrul între afacere şi familie este foarte fragil. Atunci când construieşti afacerea îi dedici mai mult timp decât familiei. Este firesc până la un punct. Când afacerea devine matură, echipa de management sudată, începi să ai mai mult timp. Din fericire pentru mine, la momentul “maturizarii” agenţiei au venit şi copii, în 2008. Doi băieţi gemeni, Petru şi George, care au readus echilibrul. Soţia mea Corina are o experienţă similară şi asta m-a ajutat. M-a înţeles atunci când businessul era presant. În această ecuaţie afaceri-familie, aş adăuga şi prietenii pe care îi ai. Business-familie-prieteni. Vin apoi activităţile sociale şi cele ale comunităţii din care faci parte şi cercul se închide.\n\n- Lucian, dacă ar fi să stabileşti un top al preferinţelor care ar fi primele trei destinaţii, oraşe, zone din România?\n\n- Sărmaş, locul în care am copilărit şi unde iarba este mai verde şi cerul mai înstelat (soţia mea glumeşte întotdeauna pe această temă). Mă relaxează mai mult decât orice loc din lume. Mănăstirile pictate din Moldova. Cetăţile săseşti din Transilvania.\n\n- Dar în lume. Care sunt cele trei locurile de călătorie pe care le preferi. Şi de ce!\n\n- Grecia, în special insulele Creta şi Santorini - pentru ca oamenii locului ştiu să se distreze şi sunt mândri de originile lor. Orientul îndepartat: Japonia, China, Thailanda, Cambogia sau Vietnam. Africa de Sud – unde nu am fost încă, care mi-o planific să o vizitez de mulţi ani şi mi-o redefinesc pe măsură ce citesc sau aud experienţe de călătorie.\n\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','INTERVIU LUCIAN BORONEA NR.87 (IUNIE 2011)','','inherit','open','open','','438-revision','','','2011-07-13 00:48:26','2011-07-12 22:48:26','',438,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/07/13/438-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(443,1,'2011-07-13 00:52:43','2011-07-12 22:52:43','BANII VORBESC !

Evenimentul, cu o încărcătură foarte bună, nu a fost marcat până acum decât printr-o promoţie comercială (40% reducere pentru o perioadă de weekend, pentru clienţii şi oaspeţii hotelului), respectiv prin lansarea InterContinental Meetings un program nou dedicat segmentului MICE şi oamenilor de afaceri. InterContinentalul din Bucureşti merită mai mult deoarece hotelul a fost şi rămâne emblematic pentru primul lanţ internaţional promovat pe piaţa românească. Deşi a fost inaugurat în 1971, istoria acestuia a început prin anii ‘60 când sosea la Bucureşti un reprezentant al companiei Cyrus Eaton Group. Cyrus Eaton a avut ideea construirii unui hotel InterContinental la Bucureşti pentru că a observat că locurile de cazare erau relativ limitate. Hotelul a fost proiectat de arhitecţii români Dinu Hariton, Gheorghe Nădrag, Ion Moscu şi Romeo Ştefan Belea. Proiectul - executat de către constructori, ingineri şi muncitori români -, a fost finalizat în numai 3 ani, o performanţă a vremurilor. Puţini ştiu că acesta a fost primul InterContinental construit în Europa Centrală şi de Est. Inter-ul a fost timp de 25 de ani cea mai înaltă clădire din România şi aproape 30 de ani singurul hotel de 5 stele din ţară, care opera sub un brand internaţional.\r\n\r\nCe spun cei care au scris istorie\r\n\r\n“Prin anii ’66 au fost condiţii propice din punct de vedere politic ca lanţul InterContinental să apară la Bucureşti. Împreuna cu arhitectul şef al Bucureştiului, prof. Horia Maicu, am început studiile pentru viitoarele amplasamente. Iniţial am proiectat hotelul aproape similar cu cel de acum, tot cu trei aripi, ca trei banane, dar mult mai lunguieţe şi mai scund. Printre locaţiile propuse se numărau Parcul Kiseleff şi Piaţa Unirii, pe care le numesc acum drept nefericite. Americanii au apreciat însă că Piaţa Universităţii este centrul oraşului şi atunci l-am construit acolo, pe locul fostei zahanale – “La Zisu” – îşi aminteşte spune Romeo Belea, unul dintre arhitecţii hotelului. Imediat după deschidere, pe aeroportul Otopeni ateriza şi prima cursa PanAm, operatorul aerian american care era pe acea vreme şi proprietarul mărcii InterContinental.\r\n\r\n“InterContinentalul din Bucureşti s-a deschis într-un moment politic favorabil, în care Nicolae Ceauşescu încerca să se delimiteze de politica sovietică. Cu ocazia deschiderii hotelului, în mai 1971 s-au inaugurat şi cursele Pan Am către capitala ţării noastre. Chiar din ziua deschiderii oficiale, Pan Am a adus un avion plin de turişti americani, care s-au distrat toată noaptea. Hotelul a fost în acest fel plin încă din ziua deschiderii şi pentru multă vreme dupa aceea. La început, camera single costa 18 dolari, iar camera dublă 23 de dolari” - spune George Opriş, fost Rooms Division Manager între anii 1971 –1996, una dintre figurile legendare ale hotelului alături de Gheorghe Bodolan, Nicolae Stancu, Gheorghe Vătafu, Viorica Calinici etc. Opriş, care a promovat standardele de lanţ în acest hotel, mai spune că “Inter-ul a fost o şcoală de înaltă clasă pentru industria ospitalităţii din România. Primele echipe de angajaţi au fost formate în cadrul lanţului. Ei au învăţat să lucreze după standarde înalte şi i-au învăţat ulterior pe cei mai tineri ce înseamnă să fi profesionist într-un hotel de cinci stele.” La rândul său Elena Burghelea, fost Housekeeping Manager rememorează că “hotelul era o oază occidentală într-o lume comunistă şi de aceea te simţeai deosebit că lucrezi aici.

Imediat după deschidere, pe aeroportul Otopeni ateriza şi prima cursa PanAm, operatorul aerian american care era pe acea vreme şi proprietarul mărcii InterContinental.\n\n“InterContinentalul din Bucureşti s-a deschis într-un moment politic favorabil, în care Nicolae Ceauşescu încerca să se delimiteze de politica sovietică. Cu ocazia deschiderii hotelului, în mai 1971 s-au inaugurat şi cursele Pan Am către capitala ţării noastre. Chiar din ziua deschiderii oficiale, Pan Am a adus un avion plin de turişti americani, care s-au distrat toată noaptea. Hotelul a fost în acest fel plin încă din ziua deschiderii şi pentru multă vreme dupa aceea. La început, camera single costa 18 dolari, iar camera dublă 23 de dolari” - spune George Opriş, fost Rooms Division Manager între anii 1971 –1996, una dintre figurile legendare ale hotelului alături de Gheorghe Bodolan, Nicolae Stancu, Gheorghe Vătafu, Viorica Calinici etc. Opriş, care a promovat standardele de lanţ în acest hotel, mai spune că “Inter-ul a fost o şcoală de înaltă clasă pentru industria ospitalităţii din România. Primele echipe de angajaţi au fost formate în cadrul lanţului. Ei au învăţat să lucreze după standarde înalte şi i-au învăţat ulterior pe cei mai tineri ce înseamnă să fi profesionist într-un hotel de cinci stele.” La rândul său Elena Burghelea, fost Housekeeping Manager rememorează că “hotelul era o oază occidentală într-o lume comunistă şi de aceea te simţeai deosebit că lucrezi aici. Când veneam la serviciu, parcă intram dintr-o dată într-o altă lume. Nu mai eram în România comunistă.”\n\nIniţial hotelul a intrat pe piaţă cu 423 de camere şi apartamente, centru de sănătate la etajul 22, Restaurantul Balada, cu specific românesc şi Luna Bar, la etajul 21, Belvedere Bar la etajul 2, Sala Rondă la etajul 1, Picolo Bar şi cazino la etajul 1, Braseria Corso, Restaurantul Madrigal şi Self la parterul hotelului. La InterContinental a fost introdus pentru prima oară într-un hotel din România sistemul de mic dejun tip “buffet suedez’’, dar şi conceptul de ‘‘room service”. “Oaspeţii străini erau foarte încântaţi de gustul mâncării româneşti. Parţial, acest lucru se datora şi faptului că noi achiziţionam legumele, fructele, carnea, brânza din producţia locală. Pe vremea aceea nu pătrunseseră încă aditivii alimentari ori alte substanţe chimice folosite în Occident. Era foarte apreciat un cocktail din cozi de raci cu salată de crudităţi şi sos Calypso, care costa 17 lei vechi” – subliniază bucătarul Iulian Stanciu.\n\nFieful vedetelor internaţionale\n\n40 de ani în serviciul a zeci de mii de oaspeţi.

DAR NU ÎNTOTDEAUNA!\r\n\r\nBreasla hotelieră este preocupată, chiar în condiţiile dificile de acum, şi de alte subiecte decât cele generatoare de bani.

Bref, dacă nu deschizi o uşă, nu te implici într-un parteneriat, nici alţii nu o vor face. În plus e nevoie de mai mult lobby organizaţional. La asta pare să se gândească noua conducere a FIHR.\r\n\r\nANIVERSARE BRAND\r\nInterContinental Bucureşti trece de... 40 de ani\r\n\r\nEvenimentul, cu o încărcătură foarte bună, nu a fost marcat până acum decât printr-o promoţie comercială (40% reducere pentru o perioadă de weekend, pentru clienţii şi oaspeţii hotelului), respectiv prin lansarea InterContinental Meetings un program nou dedicat segmentului MICE şi oamenilor de afaceri. InterContinentalul din Bucureşti merită mai mult deoarece hotelul a fost şi rămâne emblematic pentru primul lanţ internaţional promovat pe piaţa românească. Deşi a fost inaugurat în 1971, istoria acestuia a început prin anii ‘60 când sosea la Bucureşti un reprezentant al companiei Cyrus Eaton Group. Cyrus Eaton a avut ideea construirii unui hotel InterContinental la Bucureşti pentru că a observat că locurile de cazare erau relativ limitate. Hotelul a fost proiectat de arhitecţii români Dinu Hariton, Gheorghe Nădrag, Ion Moscu şi Romeo Ştefan Belea. Proiectul - executat de către constructori, ingineri şi muncitori români -, a fost finalizat în numai 3 ani, o performanţă a vremurilor. Puţini ştiu că acesta a fost primul InterContinental construit în Europa Centrală şi de Est. Inter-ul a fost timp de 25 de ani cea mai înaltă clădire din România şi aproape 30 de ani singurul hotel de 5 stele din ţară, care opera sub un brand internaţional.\r\n\r\nCe spun cei care au scris istorie\r\n\r\n“Prin anii ’66 au fost condiţii propice din punct de vedere politic ca lanţul InterContinental să apară la Bucureşti. Împreuna cu arhitectul şef al Bucureştiului, prof. Horia Maicu, am început studiile pentru viitoarele amplasamente. Iniţial am proiectat hotelul aproape similar cu cel de acum, tot cu trei aripi, ca trei banane, dar mult mai lunguieţe şi mai scund. Printre locaţiile propuse se numărau Parcul Kiseleff şi Piaţa Unirii, pe care le numesc acum drept nefericite. Americanii au apreciat însă că Piaţa Universităţii este centrul oraşului şi atunci l-am construit acolo, pe locul fostei zahanale – “La Zisu” – îşi aminteşte spune Romeo Belea, unul dintre arhitecţii hotelului.

Ediţia a VII-a a festivalului itinerant de cultură şi gastronomie Transilvania Fest se va desfăşura între 29 şi 31 iulie, în judeţul Alba. După o cercetare de durată, organizatorii au ales ca loc de desfăşurare a ostilităţilor culinare din 2011, Câmpia Libertăţii din Blaj. „După ce ultimele ediţii ale festivalului s-au desfăşurat în judeţele Cluj şi Sibiu, am ales acum judeţul Alba. Ne bucurăm că Blajul este gazda ediţiei din acest an. Oraşul este plin de ospitalitate şi ofertant din punct de vedere cultural, economic şi logistic. Festivalul se doreşte a fi doar „vârful aisbergului”: promovarea unor manifestări specifice şi atragerea de turişti şi cumpărători. O componentă definitorie a manifestării o constituie implicarea unor parteneri şi colaboratori, a unor experţi naţionali şi internaţionali pe diverse domenii cum ar fi turism cultural, gastronomie, marketing, ospitalitate sau educaţie. Publicul ţintă ale festivalului acoperă o paletă largă: turişti din România cu vârste cuprinse între 25 şi 45 ani, de obicei provenind din oraşele mari şi medii şi turişti din străinătate cu vârste între 30 şi 50 ani, interesaţi de tradiţii locale. Amintim câteva secţiuni cu care vă veţi întâlni la Transilvania Fest: standurile de meşteşuguri şi de produse agro-regionale, aleile florilor, brânzei, vinului şi mierii, evenimente dedicate copiilor (degustări de brânză, ateliere „Educaţia simţurilor”, spectacole de teatru, tradiţionale de etno-blues, folk-jazz, cinema în aer liber, tururi gastronomice sau de turism cultural şi demonstraţii de gătit” – ne-au informat organizatorii.\r\n\r\nTurda Fest, acum Transilvania Fest, a fost lansat în 2005 în scopul de a restabili tradiţia festivalurilor pline de culoare, atât de importante pentru viaţa din Transilvania înainte de anii 1940. Manifestarea încurajează dezvoltarea durabilă a meştesugurilor şi producţiei locale la scară mică, celebrând în acelaşi timp multiculturalitatea din Transilvania. Din 2008 festivalul a devenit itinerant, pentru a putea astfel să promoveze Transilvania din diverse perspective regionale.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Transilvania-fest-5.jpg\" "\\"Transilvania"){kind=spacer}

Motivul? Lipsa de finanţare ulterioară. Cu toate acestea MDRT a lansat un nou apel pentru depunerea de asemenea proiecte, în calitate de autoritate de management pentru Programul Operaţional Regional 2007 – 2013. Alocarea financiară orientativă pentru această etapă se ridică la 17.000.000 de euro.Valoarea totală a fiecărui proiect variază între minim 170.000 de lei şi maxim 630.000 de lei.\r\n---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\r\n\r\nNOUTĂŢI ÎN LEGISLAŢIA TURISTICĂ\r\n\r\nLa propunerea MDRT Guvernul a aprobat Hotărârea pentru modificarea H.G. nr. 1267/2010 privind eliberarea certificatelor de clasificare, a licenţelor şi brevetelor de turism. Prin noile prevederi se clarifică aspecte referitoare la corelarea cuantumului amenzilor cu gradul de pericol social al faptei contravenţionale. De exemplu, desfăşurarea activităţii în structuri de primire turistică neclasificate va fi sancţionată contravenţional cu amendă între 40.000 şi 50.000 de lei, iar activitatea în structuri de primire turistică cu certificate de clasificare expirate va fi sancţionată contravenţional cu amendă între 20.000 şi 40.000 de lei.

Ne bucurăm că Blajul este gazda ediţiei din acest an. Oraşul este plin de ospitalitate şi ofertant din punct de vedere cultural, economic şi logistic. Festivalul se doreşte a fi doar „vârful aisbergului”: promovarea unor manifestări specifice şi atragerea de turişti şi cumpărători. O componentă definitorie a manifestării o constituie implicarea unor parteneri şi colaboratori, a unor experţi naţionali şi internaţionali pe diverse domenii cum ar fi turism cultural, gastronomie, marketing, ospitalitate sau educaţie. Publicul ţintă ale festivalului acoperă o paletă largă: turişti din România cu vârste cuprinse între 25 şi 45 ani, de obicei provenind din oraşele mari şi medii şi turişti din străinătate cu vârste între 30 şi 50 ani, interesaţi de tradiţii locale. Amintim câteva secţiuni cu care vă veţi întâlni la Transilvania Fest: standurile de meşteşuguri şi de produse agro-regionale, aleile florilor, brânzei, vinului şi mierii, evenimente dedicate copiilor (degustări de brânză, ateliere „Educaţia simţurilor”, spectacole de teatru, tradiţionale de etno-blues, folk-jazz, cinema în aer liber, tururi gastronomice sau de turism cultural şi demonstraţii de gătit” – ne-au informat organizatorii.\n\nTurda Fest, acum Transilvania Fest, a fost lansat în 2005 în scopul de a restabili tradiţia festivalurilor pline de culoare, atât de importante pentru viaţa din Transilvania înainte de anii 1940. Manifestarea încurajează dezvoltarea durabilă a meştesugurilor şi producţiei locale la scară mică, celebrând în acelaşi timp multiculturalitatea din Transilvania. Din 2008 festivalul a devenit itinerant, pentru a putea astfel să promoveze Transilvania din diverse perspective regionale.\n\nTransilvania Fest se desfăşoară sub înaltul patronaj al Alteţei Sale Regale Principesa Margareta a României şi al Alteţei Sale Regale Prinţul Charles de Wales.

După o cercetare de durată, organizatorii au ales ca loc de desfăşurare a ostilităţilor culinare din 2011, Câmpia Libertăţii din Blaj. „După ce ultimele ediţii ale festivalului s-au desfăşurat în judeţele Cluj şi Sibiu, am ales acum judeţul Alba. Ne bucurăm că Blajul este gazda ediţiei din acest an. Oraşul este plin de ospitalitate şi ofertant din punct de vedere cultural, economic şi logistic. Festivalul se doreşte a fi doar „vârful aisbergului”: promovarea unor manifestări specifice şi atragerea de turişti şi cumpărători. O componentă definitorie a manifestării o constituie implicarea unor parteneri şi colaboratori, a unor experţi naţionali şi internaţionali pe diverse domenii cum ar fi turism cultural, gastronomie, marketing, ospitalitate sau educaţie. Publicul ţintă ale festivalului acoperă o paletă largă: turişti din România cu vârste cuprinse între 25 şi 45 ani, de obicei provenind din oraşele mari şi medii şi turişti din străinătate cu vârste între 30 şi 50 ani, interesaţi de tradiţii locale. Amintim câteva secţiuni cu care vă veţi întâlni la Transilvania Fest: standurile de meşteşuguri şi de produse agro-regionale, aleile florilor, brânzei, vinului şi mierii, evenimente dedicate copiilor (degustări de brânză, ateliere „Educaţia simţurilor”, spectacole de teatru, tradiţionale de etno-blues, folk-jazz, cinema în aer liber, tururi gastronomice sau de turism cultural şi demonstraţii de gătit” – ne-au informat organizatorii.\r\n\r\nTurda Fest, acum Transilvania Fest, a fost lansat în 2005 în scopul de a restabili tradiţia festivalurilor pline de culoare, atât de importante pentru viaţa din Transilvania înainte de anii 1940. Manifestarea încurajează dezvoltarea durabilă a meştesugurilor şi producţiei locale la scară mică, celebrând în acelaşi timp multiculturalitatea din Transilvania. Din 2008 festivalul a devenit itinerant, pentru a putea astfel să promoveze Transilvania din diverse perspective regionale.\r\n\r\nTransilvania Fest se desfăşoară sub înaltul patronaj al Alteţei Sale Regale Principesa Margareta a României şi al Alteţei Sale Regale Prinţul Charles de Wales.

Traveller Magazin este unul dintre principalii parteneri media ai manifestării.\r\n_______________________________________________________________\r\nMICHELIN VERDE şi în limba ROMÂNĂ\r\n\r\nEditurile Michelin şi Meteor Press au lansat versiunea în limba română a Ghidului Verde Michelin pentru România. Lucrarea completează prestigioasa colecţie Michelin. Opt situri româneşti au fost desemnate cu cea mai înaltă distincţie a Ghidului Verde Michelin – trei stele (de vizitat neapărat): mănăstirile din Bucovina, Maramureşul, Dragomirna, Sibiul, Transfăgărăşanul, Horezu, Prejmerul şi Delta Dunării. În afară de Bucureşti, numeroase oraşe şi sate, dar şi monumente şi muzee, au fost desemnate cu două stele (merită o oprire) sau cu o stea (sunt interesante).\r\nLa evenimentul de lansare al ghidului au participat Eric Faidy, Preşedintele Michelin România şi Balcani, Gigi Alecu şi Iolanda Chioaru, reprezentanţii Meteor Press, Roxana Manoliu reprezentant comunicare Apa Nova etc. „După ce au petrecut mult timp învăţând şi documentându-se despre România, scriitorii noştri au fost dornici de a le oferi cititorilor această colecţie cu cele mai interesante lucruri de văzut şi făcut în România. Ne dorim ca Ghidul să-i ajute pe români să-şi redescopere ţara” - a declarat Eric Faidy, Preşedinte Michelin pentru România şi Balcani.\r\n\r\nGhidul Verde Michelin pentru România are 368 de pagini şi include 22 de hărţi, aproximativ 600 de adrese (din care 400 cu locuri de cazare şi restaurante) şi 160 de fotografii. El a fost creat cu sprijinul Departamentului de Cartografie al Michelin România şi apoi a fost tradus şi publicat de editura Meteor Press.O variantă în limba franceză a fost lansată şi prezentată în revista noastră în septembrie 2008. Compania Michelin a fost înfiinţatã în anul 1889 de cãtre fraţii André şi Edouard Michelin. Michelin a creat primul ghid de călătorie cu peste 100 de ani în urmă pentru a promova călătoriile rutiere. Astăzi, divizia Michelin Travel & Lifestyle oferă călătorilor o gamă largă de ghiduri turistice, hărţi, resurse on-line de călătorie etc.\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON \r\n_______________________________________________________________\r\n\r\nCICLOTURISM PRINTRE STICLE ŞI… TRUFE \r\n\r\nCarpathian Tourism Cluster a iniţiat în România două proiecte pilot care se adresează unor segmente de nişă. Ele sunt menite să atragă turişti străini dar şi autohtoni spre programe inedite. Primul – „Traseul Cicloturistic Dealu Mare” e conceput în colaborare cu Cycling Romania, Asociaţia de Dezvoltare în Turism Monteoru Renaissance şi mai multe municipalităţi din zonă. Traseul are o lungime de 140 de kilometri şi prilejuieşte, pe parcursul a 5 zile, vizitarea unor obiective culturale, istorice şi oenologice (Ceptura, Seciu, Urlaţi, Tohani, Săhăteni, Pietroasele şi Merei). Şi al doilea proiect are un farmec aparte. Lansat recent „Mobile Cooking Romania” care a deschis sezonul de trufe cu un eveniment axat pe prepararea acestor diamante negre ale gastronomiei. Spectacolul a fost pus la cale într-o cabană luxoasă din mijlocul pădurii buzoiene de maeştrii Horia Vîrlan şi Jakob Hausmann. Manifestarea a fost susţinută de profesionişti reuniţi în Asociaţia Căutătorilor de Trufe din România (ACTRU), ne-a precizat Thorsten Kirschner, Cluster Manager.\r\nCarpathian Tourism Cluster Romania este o organizaţie non-profit şi non-guvernamentală, o reţea inovativă de parteneri regionali şi naţionali, formată din asociaţii de dezvoltare, lanţuri hoteliere, tour-operatori, universităţi şi furnizori de servicii etc.\r\n\r\nC.MARIAN\r\n_______________________________________________________________\r\n\r\nBRONZAŢI-VĂ ONLINE! \r\nMamaia, a devenit prima staţiune românească cu sistem de rezervări online. Administratorul site-ului oficial al staţiunii – IPIX România -, a realizat recent primul infotrip virtual din România în care a fost prezentat şi noul sistem. Evenimentul s-a desfăşurat exclusiv pe Internet. Noutatea pe care o aduce sistemul de rezervări al staţiunii Mamaia este cumpărarea de sejururi direct de la hoteluri. Cine ştie, poate în curând nici nu va mai fi nevoie să mergeţi la mare, vă veţi bronza online pe balcon. Mai glumim şi noi!

Sunt reunite în cadrul ei instrumente de scris, celebre, ce au aparţinut fie unor personalităţi importante din viaţa politică, socială şi culturală (pana de scris din aur a lui George Bariţiu, tocul pentru scris atribuit lui C.A. Rosetti, călimară de la Divanul Ad-hoc, trusa pentru desen a domnitorului Al. I. Cuza, pana de scris din aur a regelui Carol I, tocul folosit de Ion C. Brătianu la Congresul de la Berlin în 1878, creionul din aur al mareşalului Alexandru Averescu, biroul de lucru al lui Nicolae Iorga etc), dar şi ale unor remarcabili scriitori ca Mihail Sadoveanu, Calistrat Hogaş, Al. Macedonski, George Coşbuc, Liviu Rebreanu, Tudor Arghezi, Camil Petrescu, George Călinescu etc. Expoziţia e organizată în parteneriat cu Muzeul Naţional al Literaturii Române şi în colaborare cu mai multe muzee ori lăcaşuri de cult din Bucureşti, Iaşi, Târgovişte etc. Traveller Magazin este unul dintre partenerii media al manifestării.\r\n\r\n\r\n_______________________________________________________________\r\n\r\nTINERETUL ŞI MUZEELE\r\nA III-a ediţie a Conferinţei Internaţionale “Tineretul şi Muzeele”, organizată de Muzeul Cotroceni în parteneriat cu UNESCO a marcat, printre altele, împlinirea a două decenii de la înfiinţarea instituţiei culturale. Printre subiectele dezbătute s-au numărat geme de genul: Muzeele de istorie şi artă: misiune, obiective, strategii; Proiecte culturale în politica de management şi marketing cultural; Noi tendinţe în activitatea de restaurare-conservare. Dintre personalităţile prezente amintim de dr. Jean Pierre Titz – Head of History Education Division, Consiliul Europei; prof. dr. Francis Conte – Director of the Master CIMER Sorbonne University, Franţa; Ulrike Renate Kretzschmar – Director of the History Museum, Berlin, Germania; Maria Serlupi Crescenzi – Office for Educational Activities Vatican Museum – Vatican, dr.

Motivul? Lipsa de finanţare ulterioară. Cu toate acestea MDRT a lansat un nou apel pentru depunerea de asemenea proiecte, în calitate de autoritate de management pentru Programul Operaţional Regional 2007 – 2013. Alocarea financiară orientativă pentru această etapă se ridică la 17.000.000 de euro.Valoarea totală a fiecărui proiect variază între minim 170.000 de lei şi maxim 630.000 de lei.\r\n---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\r\n\r\nNOUTĂŢI ÎN LEGISLAŢIA TURISTICĂ\r\n\r\nLa propunerea MDRT Guvernul a aprobat Hotărârea pentru modificarea H.G. nr. 1267/2010 privind eliberarea certificatelor de clasificare, a licenţelor şi brevetelor de turism. Prin noile prevederi se clarifică aspecte referitoare la corelarea cuantumului amenzilor cu gradul de pericol social al faptei contravenţionale. De exemplu, desfăşurarea activităţii în structuri de primire turistică neclasificate va fi sancţionată contravenţional cu amendă între 40.000 şi 50.000 de lei, iar activitatea în structuri de primire turistică cu certificate de clasificare expirate va fi sancţionată contravenţional cu amendă între 20.000 şi 40.000 de lei. Până în prezent amenzile aplicate pentru ambele situaţii erau cuprinse între 10.000 şi 20.000 de lei.\r\n---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\r\n\r\nDOUĂ INVESTIŢII AU...

The road will start with the Palace of Parliament, Cotroceni Museum and will continue in the country, over 1000 kilometers, with Bacău, famous Cotnari cellars, Suceava, Moldoviţa (FIJET Golden Apple distinction in 1975), Suceviţa, Voroneţ and Gura Humorului Monasteries. Ciocăneşti, the village of the area promoted as a living icon of local traditions, will be followed by the Dracula Castle and Hotel in Tihuţa (Bistriţa County). Sighişoara will host a special medieval evening; Sibiu will show a traditional wedding. Bran Castle, the palaces of Sinaia (Peles and Pelişor) as well as new landmarks of Romanian tourism as Cantacuzino palace in Buşteni are to be seen.\n\nThe FIJET Romania Press Club and The Ministry of Development and Tourism are the organizers of the event. Two years ago the Romanian press club convinced FIJET to give the Golden Apple distinction to three Romanian concepts: Mărginimea Sibiului, The Danube Delta and Blue Air carrier.

This is the idea that a delegation of the ministry proposed in Mombasa (Kenya), where the works of the 90th session of the Executive Council of the World Tourism Organization took place. The new code will complete the existing similar document. The idea generated favorable opinions, due to the fact that the practical point of view will lead to better position of OMT in the world travel industry. On the event agenda other themes concerning tourism development until 2030 where listed as well. In 2011 the presidency of the Executive Council of WTO is held by Italy and the vice-presidency by Kenya and Romania.\n\n\nNEWCOMER: Braşov Business Park\n\nThe Belgians from Ravensdale Investments officially opened Braşov Business Park (BBP), the largest business and events facility in the Transilvanian city.

The group knows international industrial, financial and real estate development, in countries of Europe, as well as in India and USA. Ignacio Gheysens, CEO Vlerick Real Estate, trusts the potential of the area: “The positioning is excellent, exactly in the heart of the country.

The hotel and its owners, Cătălin Adrian Petre and Sylvia Schlie Petre, received from the Union of Architects in Romanian the prize “Best Restoration and Design Project”.\n\nTULCEA: Festival of paddling boats!\n\n“Ivan Patzaichin-Mila 23” Association will organize in Tulcea, September 2-4, The Festival of paddling boats. A part of the Rowmania program, the initiative belongs to the multiple national and world champion Ivan Patzaichin: “We created Rowmania in order to make people in the Danube Delta regain their pleasure to row and to have a feast dedicated to this pleasure and to water”.

The place became the third hosting facility in Romania to have such a certification, after Saturn Hotel at the Black Sea (Saturn resort) and Crowne Plaza hotel in Bucharest. According to Romanian Green Building Council, RoGBC, “The idea of asking for the certification came from the interest of the owners in a durable development, following in the same time our recommendation”. The villa is now facing modernization and will soon offer 15 new rooms, a 100 seats restaurant and a 1.200 sqm park.\n\nFPTR has a new president \n\nThe businessman Mohammad Murad has been chosen president of the organization at the national conference of the Federation of Patronages in Romanian Tourism (FPTR). The former leader, Daniel Vasilescu, became honorific president, due to its contributions. As Murad said the development of FPTR will face an accelerated rejuvenation and change: “We now need a practical, credible and efficient alternative. An alternative that only implied people can promote, in order to stop the degradation process that is happening in the Romanian tourism. FPTR will fight to protect the interests of the investors and will take care of a coherent development in tourism.” Mohammad Murad is a graduate of the Medicine University in Bucharest. He is the founder of two hotel chains: Perla Majestic and Phoenicia Hotels & Resorts.','ENGLISH VERSION TRAVELLER MAGAZIN NO.88-89 (JULY-AUGUST 2011)','','inherit','open','open','','478-revision','','','2011-08-03 22:11:16','2011-08-03 20:11:16','',478,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/08/03/478-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(487,1,'2012-03-09 04:22:24','2012-03-09 02:22:24','IN SEPTEMBER - Romania will host the 53rd FIJET Congress \n\nSeptember 17 – 25 Romania will be the host of a unique event: the 53rd World Congress of the International Federation of Journalists and Tourism Editors (FIJET), its theme being „Cultural patrimony reflected by the travel media”. 250 international guests are expected.

The new code will complete the existing similar document. The idea generated favorable opinions, due to the fact that the practical point of view will lead to better position of OMT in the world travel industry. On the event agenda other themes concerning tourism development until 2030 where listed as well.

Wine and cakes attack Constanţa
\r\nThe companies Domeniile Ostrov, Dobrogea Grup and Groove Hour launched a new campaign to support the restoration of the mosaic in Constanta. The two promoted products are Labyrinthum wine and the ecologic pastry Augusta, which follow the success idea of the initial brand The Antique Roman Bread Labyrinthum. „Every month Domeniile Ostrov and Dobrogea Grup, after selling these products, will send a fix amount of money in order to restore, protect and promote, the mosaic in Constanţa” – said Dragoş Paiu, marketing director of Groove Hour.

Astfel, prin alăturare şi asociere cu o tradiţie recunoscută este introdusă cercetarea asupra apariţiei vinului din regiunea Tokaj, prin secolul al XVII-lea. Accentul cade pe ideea specialiştilor contemporani, care spun că unicitatea unui vin este dată de pământul pe care e sădită via. Între texte se intercalează editoriale ce aduc laudă vinului şi oamenilor ce-l iubesc, alături de figuri şi nume ale unor cunoscuţi vinificatori maghiari. „Un moment petrecut în liniştea viei înflorite îţi poate revela eternitatea, în lumina caldă a razei aurii ce atinge frunzişul crud” – susţin cei de la APV. Merită să ridicăm paharul în cinstea unor pasionaţi, care văd vinul bun ca pe o culme culturală şi îl povestesc cu dragoste şi talent! Lucrarea se încheie, cu o abordare originală. Ea conţine o clasificare a podgoriilor şi descrierea caracteristicilor vinului în funcţie de rocile şi pământurile zonei.\r\n\r\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU

Între texte se intercalează editoriale ce aduc laudă vinului şi oamenilor ce-l iubesc, alături de figuri şi nume ale unor cunoscuţi vinificatori maghiari. „Un moment petrecut în liniştea viei înflorite îţi poate revela eternitatea, în lumina caldă a razei aurii ce atinge frunzişul crud” – susţin cei de la APV. Merită să ridicăm paharul în cinstea unor pasionaţi, care văd vinul bun ca pe o culme culturală şi îl povestesc cu dragoste şi talent! Lucrarea se încheie, cu o abordare originală. Ea conţine o clasificare a podgoriilor şi descrierea caracteristicilor vinului în funcţie de rocile şi pământurile zonei.\n\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU
TUNISIA – exotismul Mediteranei
\r\nCarte TunisiaEditura Ad Libri propune căutătorilor de frumos un nou ghid de destinaţie: Tunisia. Cu hărţi, recomandări de restaurante, cafenele ori hoteluri, cartea e uşor de aşezat în buzunar şi foarte plăcut de luat pe post de ajutor în călătorie.
\r\nAutoarea (britanică) recomandă Tunisia pentru litoralul superb dar mai ales pentru originalitatea şi permanenţa tradiţionalului, a savorii locale. Ne trimite în deşertul Sahara, care acoperă sudul ţării, la apusul soarelui, ori pe străzile aglomerate ale pieţelor în aer liber. Pe lista primelor 10 locuri de văzut ea indică ruinele romane de la Dougga, amfiteatrul de la El Jem ori insulele Kerkennak apreciate ca “Ultimul Paradis” – fostul loc de exil al generalului cartaginez Hannibal. Oraşul Kairouan concurează în frumuseţe cu satul Sidi Bou Said, cu clădirile sale albe ce privesc marea, lăsându-se cuprinse uşor de valuri de flori. Ghidul prezintă apoi o descriere a tuturor regiunilor Tunisiei. Lucrarea face parte din colecţia “Călător de mapamond”.

În ultimii cinci ani Aeroportul Internaţional din Iaşi a cunoscut o creştere a fluxului de pasageri. Ca urmare Consiliul Judeţean a luat decizia ca pentru a face faţă actualelor tendinţe să construiască un nou terminal de pasageri care va avea o suprafaţă de peste 1.200 metri pătraţi. Investiţia, care va fi finalizată până la sfârşitul anului, se va ridica la aproximativ 1,8 milioane de euro.\r\nPotrivit directorului aeroportului ieşean, Gheorghe Corjăuţeanu, realizarea terminalului reprezintă o “fază de tranziţie în dezvoltarea aeroportului.

Ceilalţi au preferat să se implice. Cele două atitudini au grupat mediul de afaceri la două mese de joc. Deşi gândesc în viteze diferite, oamenii de afaceri descoperă interese comune.

Murad e noul lider al FPTR \r\nOmul de afaceri Mohammad Murad, proprietarul lanţului hotelier Phoenicia, care include mai multe mărci, a fost ales la recenta Conferinţă Naţională a Federaţiei Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR), preşedintele organizaţiei. El e secondat de un Prim Vicepreşedinte şi 8 vicepreşedinţi regionali. Fostul lider Daniel Vasilescu, a fost desemnat pentru contribuţiile sale Preşedinte de Onoare.\r\nDupă cum a declarat Murad, dezvoltarea FPTR va cunoaşte un proces acelerat de geriatrie economică şi asociativă. Platforma program, lansată sub sloganul “Implică-te! Schimbarea începe acum!” va fi susţinută de mediul de afaceri pe care a acceptat să-l reprezinte. “Este nevoie acum de o alternativă pragmatică, credibilă şi eficientă. O alternativă pe care o pot promova numai oamenii faptelor, în stare să pună capăt procesului de degradare a turismului în România. FPTR trebuie să reprezinte forţa federativă a celor care doresc schimbări esenţiale şi care vor o cale europeană pentru turismul din România. FPTR va lupta pentru protejarea intereselor micilor şi marilor întreprinzători din turism, pentru dezvoltarea turismului în România şi pentru atragerea turiştilor români ori străini să-şi petreacă vacanţele în ţara noastră”. Printre obiectivele noii echipe se numără: unificarea patronală în turism, modernizarea structurii FPTR, schimbarea mentalităţii actuale în relaţiile cu instituţiile de resort, concentrarea eforturilor pentru ca FPTR să devină lider de imagine al industriei turismului autohton şi o prezenţă mai activă în toate mediile de promovare, în special în mass media. Accesarea de fonduri europene în beneficiul membrilor şi al mediului de afaceri este o altă prioritate enunţată.\r\nMohammad Murad este cetăţean român de origine libaneză. El a absolvit Facultatea de Medicină din Bucureşti. După mai multe afaceri devenite amintire el a fondat lanţul de fast-food Spring Time şi un trust de construcţii. Ulterior s-a implicat în industria turismului cea care i-a adus apreciere.

Aceştia sunt belgienii de la compania Ravensdale Investments. După cum a declarat baronul Philippe Vlerick pentru construirea clădirii au fost alocate pînă acum 30 de milioane de euro. Ea a fost proiectată pentru a găzdui birouri, iar în partea inferioară este amenajat un Centru de afaceri, cu o suprafaţă de 24.000 de metri pătraţi ce include spaţii pentru expoziţii şi săli pentru simpozioane, conferinţe, reuniuni de afaceri, work-shopuri etc. În momentul de faţă gradul de închiriere a clădirii este circa 70%. Proiectul final prevede construirea a încă două turnuri de sticlă în oglindă cu cele existente dar următoarele investiţii vor depinde de succesul pe care îl va avea actuala clădire. La finalizarea celei de-a doua etape ansamblul va avea o suprafaţă construită de 62.000 de metri pătraţi. În prezent, în Braşov Business Park lucrează deja 500 de persoane.\r\nRavensdale Investments este filiala Vlerick Group, condusă de baronul belgian Philippe Vlerick. “Este singura clădire din Braşov care oferă spaţii de birouri de clasa A. Preţurile de închiriere sunt mai mici decât în Bucureşti, chiar dacă nivelul investiţiei este cam acelaşi ca şi în Capitală”- a declarat Vlerick. La nivel internaţional, grupul belgian derulează activităţi industriale şi financiare, în ţări din Europa de Est şi de Vest, India şi SUA. Ele acoperă o gamă diversă de lucrări, de la domeniul industrial (BIC Carpets, UCO Ţesătura, UCO Sprinning, UCO Raymond Denim, Spector Photo Group), cel de administrare a întreprinderilor (BMT, LVD Company, Concordia Textiles Group) până la cel imobiliar. În România, grupul este prezent prin UCO Ţesătura în Giurgiu, prim BMT la Iaşi, respectiv prin companii de dezvoltare imobiliară, Royal Land şi Ravensdale Investments fiind două dintre acestea.\r\nLa rândul său Ignacio Gheysens, CEO Vlerick Real Estate, s-a arătat extrem de încrezator în potenţialul de dezvoltare al oraşului şi judeţului Braşov. “Este foarte bine poziţionat, în centrul ţării. În plus aici activează şi Universitatea Transilvania, redutabilă în domeniul tehnic”.\r\n\r\nCONFIRMĂRI INTERNAŢIONALE\r\nCarol Parc e Furnizor al Casei Regale\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/hotel-carol-13.jpg\" "\\"hotel")

Alţii au investit în hoteluri sau clădiri destinate afacerilor şi evenimentelor. Primii n-au vrut să rişte. Poate nici n-au avut capitalul cu care să se aşeze la masă. Ceilalţi au preferat să se implice. Cele două atitudini au grupat mediul de afaceri la două mese de joc. Deşi gândesc în viteze diferite, oamenii de afaceri descoperă interese comune. Să facă bani din turism. Sună frumos nu ?\n\n\nNOI ATITUDINI\nMurad e noul lider al FPTR \nOmul de afaceri Mohammad Murad, proprietarul lanţului hotelier Phoenicia, care include mai multe mărci, a fost ales la recenta Conferinţă Naţională a Federaţiei Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR), preşedintele organizaţiei. El e secondat de un Prim Vicepreşedinte şi 8 vicepreşedinţi regionali. Fostul lider Daniel Vasilescu, a fost desemnat pentru contribuţiile sale Preşedinte de Onoare.\nDupă cum a declarat Murad, dezvoltarea FPTR va cunoaşte un proces acelerat de geriatrie economică şi asociativă. Platforma program, lansată sub sloganul “Implică-te! Schimbarea începe acum!” va fi susţinută de mediul de afaceri pe care a acceptat să-l reprezinte. “Este nevoie acum de o alternativă pragmatică, credibilă şi eficientă. O alternativă pe care o pot promova numai oamenii faptelor, în stare să pună capăt procesului de degradare a turismului în România. FPTR trebuie să reprezinte forţa federativă a celor care doresc schimbări esenţiale şi care vor o cale europeană pentru turismul din România. FPTR va lupta pentru protejarea intereselor micilor şi marilor întreprinzători din turism, pentru dezvoltarea turismului în România şi pentru atragerea turiştilor români ori străini să-şi petreacă vacanţele în ţara noastră”. Printre obiectivele noii echipe se numără: unificarea patronală în turism, modernizarea structurii FPTR, schimbarea mentalităţii actuale în relaţiile cu instituţiile de resort, concentrarea eforturilor pentru ca FPTR să devină lider de imagine al industriei turismului autohton şi o prezenţă mai activă în toate mediile de promovare, în special în mass media. Accesarea de fonduri europene în beneficiul membrilor şi al mediului de afaceri este o altă prioritate enunţată.\nMohammad Murad este cetăţean român de origine libaneză. El a absolvit Facultatea de Medicină din Bucureşti. După mai multe afaceri devenite amintire el a fondat lanţul de fast-food Spring Time şi un trust de construcţii. Ulterior s-a implicat în industria turismului cea care i-a adus apreciere. El a creat şi continuă să dezvolte lanţurile hoteliere Perla Majestic şi Phoenicia Hotels & Resorts, ce activează în Bucureşti şi pe litoral.\n\nINTRARE PE PIAŢĂ\nBelgienii cred în potenţialul Braşovului\n\nDupă ce a fost lansată în circuitul evenimentelor expoziţionale clădirea Braşov Business Park (BBP) a cunoscut şi o deschidere oficială organizată ca la carte în prezenţa investitorilor.

Aceştia sunt belgienii de la compania Ravensdale Investments. După cum a declarat baronul Philippe Vlerick pentru construirea clădirii au fost alocate pînă acum 30 de milioane de euro. Ea a fost proiectată pentru a găzdui birouri, iar în partea inferioară este amenajat un Centru de afaceri, cu o suprafaţă de 24.000 de metri pătraţi ce include spaţii pentru expoziţii şi săli pentru simpozioane, conferinţe, reuniuni de afaceri, work-shopuri etc. În momentul de faţă gradul de închiriere a clădirii este circa 70%. Proiectul final prevede construirea a încă două turnuri de sticlă în oglindă cu cele existente dar următoarele investiţii vor depinde de succesul pe care îl va avea actuala clădire. La finalizarea celei de-a doua etape ansamblul va avea o suprafaţă construită de 62.000 de metri pătraţi. În prezent, în Braşov Business Park lucrează deja 500 de persoane.\nRavensdale Investments este filiala Vlerick Group, condusă de baronul belgian Philippe Vlerick. “Este singura clădire din Braşov care oferă spaţii de birouri de clasa A. Preţurile de închiriere sunt mai mici decât în Bucureşti, chiar dacă nivelul investiţiei este cam acelaşi ca şi în Capitală”- a declarat Vlerick. La nivel internaţional, grupul belgian derulează activităţi industriale şi financiare, în ţări din Europa de Est şi de Vest, India şi SUA. Ele acoperă o gamă diversă de lucrări, de la domeniul industrial (BIC Carpets, UCO Ţesătura, UCO Sprinning, UCO Raymond Denim, Spector Photo Group), cel de administrare a întreprinderilor (BMT, LVD Company, Concordia Textiles Group) până la cel imobiliar.

El a primit titlul de Furnizor Oficial al Casei Regale a României, în cadrul unei ceremonii organizate de Majestatea Sa Regele Mihai I şi Alteţele Regale Principesa Margareta şi Principele Radu ai României. Timp de un an, Carol Parc Hotel a fost Locaţie Recomandată de Casa Regală a României, găzduind oaspeţi ai acestei Familii. De asemenea, hotelul a fost deseori gazda Familiei Regale. Înalta distincţie oferită este încă un semn de apreciere a consecvenţei, seriozităţii specialiştilor de la Carol Parc Hotel. Titlul de Furnizor al Casei Regale a României se acordă pentru o perioadă de trei ani.\nHotelul a fost amenajat în clădirea fostului Palat Suter, construit în 1906. El este singura unitate de 5 stele din România inclusă de publicaţia de turism Conde Nast Traveler în celebrul său 130 Best Hotels of the World şi a fost desemnat în anul deschiderii sale drept Hotelul Anului. De asemenea hotelul şi proprietarii acestuia, Cătălin Adrian Petre şi Sylvia Schlie Petre au fost distinşi de către Uniunea Arhitecţilor din România cu premiul “Cel mai bun proiect de Restaurare şi Design”. “Suntem onoraţi să ne oferim serviciile şi priceperea Familiei Regale.\n\nE o mândrie să servim Casa Regală şi să sprijinim acţiunile acesteia, căruia îi purtăm un profund respect. Ne încântă să vedem că eforturile şi devotamentul cu care am readus la viaţă o părticică valoroasă a istoriei oraşului - Palatul Suter - sunt apreciate. Suntem mândri, impliniţi si responsabilizaţi!

Conform unui comunicat al organizaţiei Romanian Green Building Council, RoGBC, aceasta este şi prima capacitate turistică de pe Valea Prahovei, ce a primit eticheta... green. “Ideea solicitării etichetei a pornit din preocuparea gazdelor pentru o dezvoltare durabilă şi în acelaşi timp la recomandarea organizaţiei noastre”. În acest moment unitatea cunoaşte un amplu proces de modernizare.

Ştiţi în mod sigur. Din cei 2.850 de kilometri pe care-i parcurge Dunărea, din Germania până la vărsare în Marea Neagră, 1.075 străbate teritoriul ţării noastre. E al doilea fluviu ca lungime din Europa. Cu toate acestea românii nu sunt atraşi nici azi să valorifice uriaşul potenţial turistic al fluviului.\r\n\r\nDincolo de poezie şi declaraţii oficiale toate ţările riverane fac bani grei din turismul dunărean, Austria, Germania şi Ungaria sunt campioane, în timp ce noi ne mulţumim cu… mărunţişul cheltuit de cei care coboară pe uscat, o zi, două în cazul cel mai fericit, sau doar câteva ore pentru o excursie rapidă.\r\n\r\n\r\nGERHARD SKOFF: „Nu suntem singuri. Avem concurenţi!”\r\n\r\nNe place s-au nu, istoria arată că în 1970, 7 din cele 8 state riverane (Germania, Austria, Slovacia, Ungaria, Croaţia, România şi Serbia) s-au reunit pentru a forma Comisia ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Dunare-Gheorghe-Marginean-si-Gerhard-Skoff002.jpg\" "\\"Dunare")
Internaţională de Turism a Dunării, cunoscută ca Die Donau. În 1998 organizaţia şi-a extins activitatea incluzând şi Canalul Main – Dunăre inagurat în 1992. Dunărea reprezintă Coridorul 7 de transport, considerat de experţi “sufletul Europei”. “În prezent există circumstanţe favorabile pentru potenţialul de dezvoltare al ţărilor riverane deoarece, odată cu intrarea României şi Bulgariei în UE, a devenit coridor intern de transport al UE. Comisia Europeană are pregătită o strategie armonizată pentru regiune Dunării” – declară Gerhard Skoff, preşedintele organizaţiei Die Donau.\r\n\r\nOrganizaţia pe care o coordonează a investit circa 40 de ani în marketarea Croazierelor pe Dunăre. Momente de criză au existat şi vor mai exista. Skoff spune că trebuie să fim realişti: “Dunărea nu mai are de 20 de ani, o poziţie unică. Există deja o concurenţă şi trebuie să ne poziţionăm inteligent faţă de competitori. La nivel mondial Dunărea are cea mai mare cotă de piaţă - 33%, dar trebuie să ţinem seama de provocări. Peste 310.000 de oameni trăiesc direct sau indirect din turismul dunărean. Avem şi alţi concurenţi redutabili - Nilul, apoi avem şi rutele exotice pe Gange, Amazon, Missisippi, Yangtze”.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/dunarea-004.jpg\" "\\"dunarea")
O altă provocare o constituie prelungirea sezonului de croaziere la 240 de zile pe an. Cu ceva vreme în urmă vapoarele navigau de la jumătatea lunii mai până la sfârşitul lui octombrie. Acum primul vapor a plecat în croazieră în martie iar ultimul va porni în ianuarie anul următor. În ceea ce priveşte tematica de promovare regională, deşi în ţara noastră nu s-a prea auzit, Die Donau a dezvoltat de-a lungul anilor mai multe programe comune. Temele au fost: în 2002 „Dunărea şi Europa”, în 2003 „Oameni, mituri, basme”, în 2004 „Dunărea muzicală”, în 2007 „Dunărea – Fluviu regal”, în 2008 „Dunărea te animă” iar pentru 2009-2010, „Romanii la Dunăre”. Anul trecut chiar Bucureştiul a găzduit Conferinţa Înternaţională Die Donau. Peste 130 de specialişti au tăiat firul în patru, iar organizaţia au premiat două personalităţi, mai mult prima decât a doua, cu „Pro Danubio”, importantă distincţie înfiinţată în 2004. Gheorghe Mărginean liderul agenţiei Karpaten Turism, respectiv Carmen Moraru, actualmente şeful Direcţiei de turism din cadrul MDRT. Dincolo de politeţuri politice românii nu au stors mai nimic din oportunitatea programului “Romanii la Dunăre”.\r\n\r\nÎntrebat de reprezentantul revistei noastre dacă proiectul impune obligativitate partenerilor, preşedintele Die Donau, a răspuns elegant că el “ are un caracter de ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Orsova-070.jpg\" "\\"Orsova")
recomandare. Fiecare ţară îşi selectează priorităţile în funcţie de planul propriu de turism”. România, care deţine importante vestigii romane, mult mai numeroase în comparaţie cu alte ţări danubiene, nu s-a arătat interesată de subiect (noi am rămas îngheţaţi în timp tot la litoral, munte, circuite culturale, turism rural etc). Ca urmare banii s-au dus în alte ţări. Slovacia de exemplu, a lustruit câteva relicve romane de la Gerulata, Boldog şi Iza şi a le-a pus în vânzare în cadrul unor trasee şi pachete turistice. Nemţii şi austriecii au tras-o tare cu “experienţe unice în natură” şi cu programe de căţărat ori de ciclism, pe rute special amenajate din vecinătatea Dunării.\r\n\r\n\r\nSIMION GIURCĂ: „E nevoie de produse care să creeze emoţii unice!”\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Dunare-Simion-Giurca.jpg\" "\\"Dunare")
Că am trecut pe lângă o oportunitate o confirmă şi Simion Giurcă, directorul Biroului de Turism al României la Viena, care deţine şi funcţia de vicepreşedinte al organizaţiei Die Donau. Ce a aşteptat România? Probabil să se termine anul 2010 şi programul “Romanii la Dunăre”. „Am fi putut scoate la lumină vestigii romane aflate sau nu în patrimoniul UNESCO. Castrul roman din apropiere de Drobeta Turnu-Severin, Muzeul regional Porţile de Fier, piciorul podului lui Traian construit de Apolodor din Damasc, monumentul de la Adamclisi, cetăţile din zona Dobrogei, vestigiile mozaicului de la Constanţa, Muzeul de arheologie, statuia poetului Ovidiu, exilat la Pontul Euxin. Apoi Termele romane de la Herculane, Tabulele romane de la Cazane şi, de ce nu, statuia lui Decebal, construită cu finanţarea regretatului Iosif Constantin Drăgan. Aurul, sarea, apeductele romane etc. Am fi putut atrage turiştii străini şi în interiorul ţării spre cetăţile din zona Orăştie şi minele de aur din Apuseni.

Din cei 2.850 de kilometri pe care-i parcurge Dunărea, din Germania până la vărsare în Marea Neagră, 1.075 străbate teritoriul ţării noastre. E al doilea fluviu ca lungime din Europa. Cu toate acestea românii nu sunt atraşi nici azi să valorifice uriaşul potenţial turistic al fluviului.\n\nDincolo de poezie şi declaraţii oficiale toate ţările riverane fac bani grei din turismul dunărean, Austria, Germania şi Ungaria sunt campioane, în timp ce noi ne mulţumim cu… mărunţişul cheltuit de cei care coboară pe uscat, o zi, două în cazul cel mai fericit, sau doar câteva ore pentru o excursie rapidă.\n\n\nGERHARD SKOFF: „Nu suntem singuri. Avem concurenţi!”\n\nNe place s-au nu, istoria arată că în 1970, 7 din cele 8 state riverane (Germania, Austria, Slovacia, Ungaria, Croaţia, România şi Serbia) s-au reunit pentru a forma Comisia Internaţională de Turism a Dunării, cunoscută ca Die Donau. În 1998 organizaţia şi-a extins activitatea incluzând şi Canalul Main – Dunăre inagurat în 1992. Dunărea reprezintă Coridorul 7 de transport, considerat de experţi “sufletul Europei”. “În prezent există circumstanţe favorabile pentru potenţialul de dezvoltare al ţărilor riverane deoarece, odată cu intrarea României şi Bulgariei în UE, a devenit coridor intern de transport al UE. Comisia Europeană are pregătită o strategie armonizată pentru regiune Dunării” – declară Gerhard Skoff, preşedintele organizaţiei Die Donau.\n\nOrganizaţia pe care o coordonează a investit circa 40 de ani în marketarea Croazierelor pe Dunăre. Momente de criză au existat şi vor mai exista. Skoff spune că trebuie să fim realişti: “Dunărea nu mai are de 20 de ani, o poziţie unică. Există deja o concurenţă şi trebuie să ne poziţionăm inteligent faţă de competitori. La nivel mondial Dunărea are cea mai mare cotă de piaţă - 33%, dar trebuie să ţinem seama de provocări. Peste 310.000 de oameni trăiesc direct sau indirect din turismul dunărean. Avem şi alţi concurenţi redutabili - Nilul, apoi avem şi rutele exotice pe Gange, Amazon, Missisippi, Yangtze”.\n\nO altă provocare o constituie prelungirea sezonului de croaziere la 240 de zile pe an. Cu ceva vreme în urmă vapoarele navigau de la jumătatea lunii mai până la sfârşitul lui octombrie. Acum primul vapor a plecat în croazieră în martie iar ultimul va porni în ianuarie anul următor. În ceea ce priveşte tematica de promovare regională, deşi în ţara noastră nu s-a prea auzit, Die Donau a dezvoltat de-a lungul anilor mai multe programe comune. Temele au fost: în 2002 „Dunărea şi Europa”, în 2003 „Oameni, mituri, basme”, în 2004 „Dunărea muzicală”, în 2007 „Dunărea – Fluviu regal”, în 2008 „Dunărea te animă” iar pentru 2009-2010, „Romanii la Dunăre”. Anul trecut chiar Bucureştiul a găzduit Conferinţa Înternaţională Die Donau. Peste 130 de specialişti au tăiat firul în patru, iar organizaţia au premiat două personalităţi, mai mult prima decât a doua, cu „Pro Danubio”, importantă distincţie înfiinţată în 2004. Gheorghe Mărginean liderul agenţiei Karpaten Turism, respectiv Carmen Moraru, actualmente şeful Direcţiei de turism din cadrul MDRT. Dincolo de politeţuri politice românii nu au stors mai nimic din oportunitatea programului “Romanii la Dunăre”.\n\nÎntrebat de reprezentantul revistei noastre dacă proiectul impune obligativitate partenerilor, preşedintele Die Donau, a răspuns elegant că el “ are un caracter de recomandare. Fiecare ţară îşi selectează priorităţile în funcţie de planul propriu de turism”. România, care deţine importante vestigii romane, mult mai numeroase în comparaţie cu alte ţări danubiene, nu s-a arătat interesată de subiect (noi am rămas îngheţaţi în timp tot la litoral, munte, circuite culturale, turism rural etc). Ca urmare banii s-au dus în alte ţări. Slovacia de exemplu, a lustruit câteva relicve romane de la Gerulata, Boldog şi Iza şi a le-a pus în vânzare în cadrul unor trasee şi pachete turistice. Nemţii şi austriecii au tras-o tare cu “experienţe unice în natură” şi cu programe de căţărat ori de ciclism, pe rute special amenajate din vecinătatea Dunării.\n\n\nSIMION GIURCĂ: „E nevoie de produse care să creeze emoţii unice!”\n\nCă am trecut pe lângă o oportunitate o confirmă şi Simion Giurcă, directorul Biroului de Turism al României la Viena, care deţine şi funcţia de vicepreşedinte al organizaţiei Die Donau. Ce a aşteptat România? Probabil să se termine anul 2010 şi programul “Romanii la Dunăre”. „Am fi putut scoate la lumină vestigii romane aflate sau nu în patrimoniul UNESCO. Castrul roman din apropiere de Drobeta Turnu-Severin, Muzeul regional Porţile de Fier, piciorul podului lui Traian construit de Apolodor din Damasc, monumentul de la Adamclisi, cetăţile din zona Dobrogei, vestigiile mozaicului de la Constanţa, Muzeul de arheologie, statuia poetului Ovidiu, exilat la Pontul Euxin. Apoi Termele romane de la Herculane, Tabulele romane de la Cazane şi, de ce nu, statuia lui Decebal, construită cu finanţarea regretatului Iosif Constantin Drăgan. Aurul, sarea, apeductele romane etc. Am fi putut atrage turiştii străini şi în interiorul ţării spre cetăţile din zona Orăştie şi minele de aur din Apuseni. Din nefericire travel agenţii român nu au cuplat la o asemenea generoasă ofertă. Dunărea e creatoarea unei culturi şi a unei istorii comune. Încă nu avem abilităţi să abordăm asemenea proiecte.

Dacă v-aţi săturat de destinaţiile clasice, ei bine merită să încercaţi o experienţă neconvenţinală. Ca şi Andora ori San Marino, Gibraltarul este o destinaţie de „buzunar”. E o limbă de pământ disputată pentru poziţia ei în istorie de arabi, spanioli şi britanici, cei din urmă fiind administratorii, printr-un guvernator ce reprezintă monarhia britanică.\r\n\r\nCum poţi ajunge în Gibraltar (numele provine de la Jabal Tariq, ce înseamnă Muntele Cărării)? Nu e complicat. Cumpără o vacanţă pe unele din Costele spaniole. Apoi ia o excursie opţională de o zi. Să aveţi în vedere că Gibraltarul este zonă liberă de taxe iar băuturile şi ţigările pot fi achiziţionate la preţuri mai mult decât onorabile. Atenţie, nu puteţi cumpăra cumpăra decât o sticlă de alcool şi un cartuş de ţigări de persoană. Dar controlul vamal este mai mult o... invitaţie turistică. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Gibraltar-2401.jpg\" "\\"Gibraltar")
Puteţi schimba bani în lire sterline... gibralteze. Dar euro e suveran ca şi lira engleză, aşa că mergeţi la cumpărături relaxaţi. Bani să aveţi. Legenda, căruia i s-a dus buhu, shopping-ul, atrage o mare parte din cei peste 4 milioane de turişti internaţionali care vin anual pe acest petic peninsular. Are doar 6,5 kilometri pătraţi şi circa 30.000 de locuitori. E ceva nu? Sunt britanici, spanioli, arabi, evrei etc. Se simt bine în această colonie a Marii Britanii adjudecată de englezi în 1704 în timpul războiului de succesiune din Spania.\r\n\r\nMai tari decât Turnul Eiffel\r\n\r\nGibraltarul e faimos pentru istoria veche (de aici au pornit spaniolii în secolele XVI şi XVII ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Gibraltar-2551.jpg\" "\\"Gibraltar")
spre America), dar şi pentru cea relativ recentă (în timpul celor două războaie mondiale a servit ca bază pentru vasele de război engleze şi americane). „Sita” militară din Oceanul Atlantic a jucat un rol strategic. Vremurile au apus rămânând în urma lor multe repere ale unei istorii dure ori romantice. Majoritatea clădirilor militare sunt funcţionale şi azi, o parte fiind convertite cu succes în... atracţii turistice. Ofertele sunt la înălţime şi acest aspect este speculat din abundenţă din perspectiva promovării Gibraltarului. Inclusiv pe mărcile poştale. Pe biletul Cable Car, sunt tipărite exemple care pun în valoare cei 412 metri înălţime cât are cel mai înalt vârf al stâncii. El e comparat cu Empire State Building, una dintre cele mai înalte clădiri din New York (381 metri), Turnul Eiffel (324), hotelul Burj al Arab din Emirate (321) ori piramida lui Keops din Egipt (321 metri). O călătorie cu sistemul pe cablu, până în acest punct, este o experienţă unică. Durează 6 minute, intervalele sunt de 15 minute iar pentru a folosi Cable Car-ul nu e nevoie de rezervare. Localnicii fac la greu turism. Sunt bine organizaţi şi sub aspectul trasportului (aeroport propriu, port şi pentru vase de croazieră, ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Gibraltar-2711.jpg\" "\\"Gibraltar")
autocare, microbuze şi taxiuri turistice). Ei scot de fiecare dată în faţă povestea maimuţelor magot sau macac, ce trăiesc pe crestele înalte. Sunt grupate într-o colonie de circa 80-100 de exemplare, fiind singura specie de acest fel din Europa care trăieşte în libertate. Conştiente de importanţa lor - soldaţii britanici au în sarcină hrănirea lor în contul unor amintiri frumoase din perioada războaielor -, macacii exersează roluri prietenoase. Pozează zilnic pe umărul miilor de turişti. Atenţie la mişcările bruşte. Vă pot crea situaţii neplăcute. Dacă vă încearcă vreo dorinţă să fugăriţi simpaticele creaturi, gândiţi-vă bine, riscaţi să fiţi amendaţi cu... 500 de lire gibralteze. Nu vă iartă nimeni. Nu vă plac maimuţele? Luaţi o croazieră de câteva ore pentru a căuta familii graţioase de delfinii din apele oceanului. O altă experienţă de top: turul tunelelor săpate în stâncă. Datează din timpul asediului dintre anii 1779-1783 şi erau folosite pentru păstrarea prafului de puşcă. În al II-lea Război mondial au fost extinse şi perfecţionate de armată, fiind folosite ca sistem de comunicare şi refugiu pentru populaţia civilă.\r\n\r\nNeanderthal, concerte şi nunţi\r\n\r\nDin topul obiectivelor nu lipseşte peştera Sf. Mihai. A fost folosită iniţial ca spital în perioada celei de-a doua conflagraţii mondiale. Azi este loc de pelerinaj speologic şi arhelogic. Într-o grotă adâncă o să descoperiţi rămăşiţele unui om de Neanderthal, căruia i-a plăcut nespus aici în urmă cu vreo 30.000-70.000 de ani. Arheologii încă nu s-au pus de acord. Peştera reamenajată cu sprijinul Reginei Elizabeta, este frecventată azi de melomani pentru că aici sunt găzduite numeroase concerte, de tinerii care doresc să-şi unească vieţile într-o ceremonie la Capela dintre stânci, dar şi de către oamenii de afaceri care o utilizează ca sală de conferinţe. Nu-i nevoie de amplificare pentru că peştera prezintă o acustică de excepţie.\r\n\r\nNu rataţi Castelul Maur (construit prin 1160 de către Abu Hassan); tunul victorian (de o sută de tone, instalat în secolul XIX să apere insula. Perechea lui se află în Malta.); Farul insulei (construit la 1841, la 49 de metri deasupra mării); satul Catalan Bay (mărturie a trecerii genovezilor în secolul XVIII); Europa Point ( cel mai sudic punct al insulei. În vecinătate se află o moschee modernă construită, în secolul trecut, după tot tipicul musulman). Cum orice călătorie începe şi se termină în Piaţa Casemates (Casemates Square), intraţi în magazinele amenajate în fosta garnizoană. În unul, amenajat ca atelier de sticlărie-muzeu, îţi poţi comanda piese create pe gustul tău. Costă, dar face.\r\n\r\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n...................................................\r\nCorespondenţă de la INTERNATIONAL POW WOW\r\nSAN FRANCISCO - Magie, mister, jazz în Harlemul Vestului (2)\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Francisco-0102.jpg\" "\\"Francisco")
\r\n\r\nExistă mai multe feluri de a explora oraş. Iar jurnaliştii de turism, circa 400, care au participat la International POW WOW găzduit de Moscone Convention Center din San Francisco, şi-au exprimat preferinţele în funcţie de profilul publicaţiilor pe care le-au reprezentat.\r\n\r\nToate drumurile care duc spre atracţiile din San Francisco pornesc sau trec prin Union Square. Aici poţi savura atmosfera hotelurilor de altă dată intrând la St. Francis. A fost construit în 1904. Master Chef-ul Victor Hirtzler, a întocmit prima carte de bucate pentru uzul intern iar James Wood a fost primul dintre vestiţii manageri care au dat strălucire serviciilor de lux. Nu se uită nimeni urât la tine când intri să admiri muzeul aflat la parter în vecinătatea recepţiei şi a cafenelei. Obiecte, cărţi, fotografii cu celebrităţi care au trecut pe aici. Shirley Temple, copilul artist-minune al cinematografiei mondiale deschide galeria. Alte imagini redau efectele cutremurul devastator din 1906. Personalul te bombardează cu cât mai multe date. Aşa că ai şansa să ieşi din St. Francis doctor în istoria hotelăriei locale. Mi s-a părut relevantă şi această informaţie. În 1909 lua fiinţă San Francisco Visitors Promotion Agency care va funcţiona în cadrul San Francisco Convention & Tourist League. Deci făcătorii de turism din acest oraş se pot mândri că organizaţia lor a depăşit un secol de existenţă. Din ianuarie 2011 ea şi-a adaptat numele devenind San Francisco Travel Association.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Francisco-0202.jpg\" "\\"Francisco")
\r\n\r\nCe-am citit în „Biblioteca ţesăturilor”\r\n\r\nUnii jurnalişti au ales programe efectuate cu tramvaiul turistic, Cable Car fiind zilnic asaltat de mii de persoane. Alţii s-au folosit fie de Bus-urile turistice, asigurate de 4 companii de transport, de tranvaiele de linie, albastre, roşii, verzi, galbene, datând de la jumătatea secolului trecut. Vapoarele de croazieră au fost de asemenea căutate de amatorii de a vizita într-un tur exclusiv legendara Insulă Alcatraz, azi transformată într-un loc de pelerinaj turistic şi în Parc tematic natural.\r\nTestasem anterior o parte din aceste atracţii. Am fost curioşi să vedem ce mai pot inventa organizatorii de turism din San Francisco? A fost foarte greu să ne decidem şi atunci am împărţit echipa în două. Un prim tur s-a concentrat pe tema „Biblioteca ţesăturilor”. A fost o veritabilă trecere în revistă a unor magazine celebre, care păstrează atmosfera eleganţei manufacturilor de altădată. Ne-am familiarizat cu modul în care se produceau pălăriile domnilor. Cum şi unde se păstrau circa 50.000 de modele de nasturi proveniţi din întreaga lume. Cum se aranjau pe rafturi, şi asta era o veritabilă artă, valurile de materiale, de la mătase până la dantele. Spectacolul cu uşile deschise se produce zilnic la magazinul Britex Fabrics, fondat în 1952 de către comercianţii Martin and Lucy Spector. Cum altfel, doar este una dintre mărcile oraşului apreciată de artişi şi creatori precum Diane Von Furstenberg, Christian Louboutin, Colleen Atwood, David Bromstad ori Cher. Am reuşit să aflăm câteva secrete despre producerea celebrilor jeansi Levis într-un magazin specializat. Aici, printre altele, ţi se poate determina mărimea şi forma jeansi-lor care se potrivesc siluetei tale, într-o cabină de probă echipată cu computer specializat în... măsurători.\r\n\r\nÎn căutarea lui Hendrix, Parker şi Armstrong\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Francisco-0882.jpg\" "\\"Francisco")
Ca şi tururile pentru iubitorii artei culinare şi ai degustătorilor de vinuri, circuitul muzical se adresează cunoscătorilor. Şi se realizează autobuzul muzical – Magic Mystery Tour sau Magic Bus. E o minune retro realizată în interiorul unui mijloc de transport salvat de la fiare vechi. E decorat cu flori de margarete, asta pentru ca să-ţi aduci aminte de generaţiile flower-power ale anilor ’60. Nu întâmplător. În interior beneficiezi de filme. Prin cele 16 proiectoare cu ecrane ce se suprapun pe ferestrele autobuzului sunt reconstituite, timp de 90 de minute, momente importante ale istoriei muzicale a mişcării hippy. De la The Beatles citire. Un veritabil cinematograf pe roţi. Programul a fost creat şi iniţiat de către domnul Chris Hordman. Ghidul nostru nu este o persoană oarecare. Joel Selvin este titularul rubricii muzicale la San Francisco Chronicle. Lui i s-a alăturat Lewis Watts, scriitor, co-autor al volumului de referinţă „Harlem of the West”: În acesta sunt reconstituite o mare parte din momentele magice ale muzicii din San Francisco.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Francisco-2192.jpg\" "\\"Francisco")
\r\n\r\n„Magic Bus” străbate Haight Ashbury (cu spectaculoasele case victoriene, zugrăvite în culori pastelate, denumite de către localnici „the old painted ladies”, Golden Gate şi North Beach, China Town, Haight Street şi Civic Center, ale căror case sunt pictate cu figuri ce amintesc de figuri celebre ale rock and roll-ului. The Fillmore este inima spectacolelor, cartierul muzicii live din vechiul San Francisco. Localnicii îl consideră drept Harlemul Vestului, şi-l promovează în acest fel în agenda de evenimente. Momentul de vârf a fost atins în perioada 1960-‘65. Atunciîn Fillmore Auditorium au explodat spectacole legendare cu Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix, B.B King şi Jefferson Airplane, Herbie Hancock. Datorită lui Bill Graham cel mai cunoscut organizator de concerte din epocă, Sala Auditorium posedă o impresionantă colecţie cu afişele înrămate ale respectivelor evenimente. Ele reflectă evoluţia graficii şi design-ului înfluenţate de curentele muzicale pop, rock şi jazz. Turul nostru a continuat împreună cu Claudia A. Polley, directorul Jazz Heritage Center de pe Fillmore Street. În cartierul muzicii am frecventat muzee, săli de spectacole azi dezafectate, săli care atrag sute de îndrăgostiţi ai dansului - cha-cha-cha alături de tangou fiind unul dintre cele mai iubite -, magazine care expun la loc de glorie afişe originale cu legendari muzicieni precum Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Chet Baker, Duke Ellington ori John Coltrane.\r\n\r\nCa între cunoscători![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Francisco-2342.jpg\" "\\"Francisco")
\r\n\r\nEi bine Fillmore Street nu trăieşte numai din amintiri. Aici se regăsesc o parte din renumitele restaurante, vechi sau mai noi, unde te poţi delecta cu muzică tradiţională de calitate. La „The Boom Boom Room”, specializat în blues, boogie şi soul, dansurile se îmbină armonios cu coctailurile asortate; la Sheba Piano Lounge, spectacole de noapte acoperă o varietate de expresii muzicale, de la latino-jazz pînă afro-funk; iar Yoshi’s Jazz Club, un local cu 400 de locuri la care foarte rar găseşti locuri libere, oferă în fiecare seară un repertoriu bogat din jazzului mondial. Cel mai cotat este fără îndoială Restaurantul design 1300 on Fillmore. În fiecare weekend puteţi audia spectacole live de gospel. Ne-am nimerit la momentul oportun acolo, pentru a savura împreună cu clienţii localului o partidă de muzică. Ca între cunoscători. O atmosferă specială. Majoritatea mesenilor dublau ca nişte profesionişti, evoluţia soliştilor. La intrare se află un salon-expoziţie în care sunt depozitate imagini cu vechi localuri, unele dintre ele dispărute, unde cîndva se mînca jazz pe... pâine. 1300 on Fillmore este căutat şi pentru gastronomia sa selectă pusă în operă sub privirea exigentă a Chefului David Lawrence şi a managerului Monetta White.\r\n\r\nDiscul de vinilin nu a murit\r\n\r\nAr fi păcat să nu relatăm încă o experienţă memorabilă. Am trăit-o intrând în magazinul Amoeba Music. Mi-ar place să avem în România aşa ceva. Mai ales că nu ar fi imposibil. Vă vine sau nu să credeţi a arunca un disc de vinilin la gunoi reprezintă un act de vandalism cultural. Amoeba Music are un rol extraordinar în San Francisco. Este o bursă a muzicii înregistrate pe plăci în principal, este locul unde poţi să vinzi dar şi să cumperi discuri cu muzicieni celebri, afişe originale sau copii, şi multe alte obiecte vechi ce fac parte din generaţia Pick-up-ului. Există o puternică mişcare retro, în rândul tinerilor americani, o mare parte dintre ei saturaţi de CD ori Ipod etc. Sute de tineri vin şi caută zilnic aici, bijuterii muzicale, înregistrate pe sigle, LP ori dublu LP. Costă de la 5 până la 100-120 de dolari un disc de vinilin. Ca şi un afiş original de la concertele Beatles, Rolling Stones, ABBA, Michael Jackson etc. Vestea bună este că discul clasic n-a murit. Vestea proastă este că la noi încă nu s-a auzit de ea. Pe curând.\r\n\r\nDOINA, MARIAN & SÂNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul \r\nU.S. TRAVEL ASSOCIATION & TRAVELPORT ROMANIA','Mapamond nr. 88-89(iulie-august 2011)','','publish','open','open','','mapamond-nr-88-89iulie-august-2011','','','2011-08-03 23:32:31','2011-08-03 21:32:31','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=531',0,'post','',0),(532,1,'2011-08-03 23:17:54','2011-08-03 21:17:54','','Gibraltar 234','','inherit','open','open','','gibraltar-234','','','2011-08-03 23:17:54','2011-08-03 21:17:54','',531,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Gibraltar-234.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(533,1,'2011-08-03 23:18:06','2011-08-03 21:18:06','','Gibraltar 240','','inherit','open','open','','gibraltar-240','','','2011-08-03 23:18:06','2011-08-03 21:18:06','',531,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Gibraltar-240.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(534,1,'2011-08-03 23:18:17','2011-08-03 21:18:17','','Gibraltar 255','','inherit','open','open','','gibraltar-255','','','2011-08-03 23:18:17','2011-08-03 21:18:17','',531,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Gibraltar-255.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(535,1,'2011-08-03 23:18:27','2011-08-03 21:18:27','','Gibraltar 271','','inherit','open','open','','gibraltar-271','','','2011-08-03 23:18:27','2011-08-03 21:18:27','',531,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Gibraltar-271.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(536,1,'2011-08-03 23:18:47','2011-08-03 21:18:47','GIBRALTAR – liber la maimuţe\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\"]\n\nDacă v-aţi săturat de destinaţiile clasice, ei bine merită să încercaţi o experienţă neconvenţinală. Ca şi Andora ori San Marino, Gibraltarul este o destinaţie de „buzunar”. E o limbă de pământ disputată pentru poziţia ei în istorie de arabi, spanioli şi britanici, cei din urmă fiind administratorii, printr-un guvernator ce reprezintă monarhia britanică.\n\nCum poţi ajunge în Gibraltar (numele provine de la Jabal Tariq, ce înseamnă Muntele Cărării)? Nu e complicat. Cumpără o vacanţă pe unele din Costele spaniole. Apoi ia o excursie opţională de o zi. Să aveţi în vedere că Gibraltarul este zonă liberă de taxe iar băuturile şi ţigările pot fi achiziţionate la preţuri mai mult decât onorabile. Atenţie, nu puteţi cumpăra cumpăra decât o sticlă de alcool şi un cartuş de ţigări de persoană. Dar controlul vamal este mai mult o... invitaţie turistică. Puteţi schimba bani în lire sterline... gibralteze. Dar euro e suveran ca şi lira engleză, aşa că mergeţi la cumpărături relaxaţi. Bani să aveţi. Legenda, căruia i s-a dus buhu, shopping-ul, atrage o mare parte din cei peste 4 milioane de turişti internaţionali care vin anual pe acest petic peninsular. Are doar 6,5 kilometri pătraţi şi circa 30.000 de locuitori. E ceva nu? Sunt britanici, spanioli, arabi, evrei etc. Se simt bine în această colonie a Marii Britanii adjudecată de englezi în 1704 în timpul războiului de succesiune din Spania.\n\nMai tari decât Turnul Eiffel\n\nGibraltarul e faimos pentru istoria veche (de aici au pornit spaniolii în secolele XVI şi XVII spre America), dar şi pentru cea relativ recentă (în timpul celor două războaie mondiale a servit ca bază pentru vasele de război engleze şi americane). „Sita” militară din Oceanul Atlantic a jucat un rol strategic. Vremurile au apus rămânând în urma lor multe repere ale unei istorii dure ori romantice. Majoritatea clădirilor militare sunt funcţionale şi azi, o parte fiind convertite cu succes în... atracţii turistice. Ofertele sunt la înălţime şi acest aspect este speculat din abundenţă din perspectiva promovării Gibraltarului. Inclusiv pe mărcile poştale. Pe biletul Cable Car, sunt tipărite exemple care pun în valoare cei 412 metri înălţime cât are cel mai înalt vârf al stâncii. El e comparat cu Empire State Building, una dintre cele mai înalte clădiri din New York (381 metri), Turnul Eiffel (324), hotelul Burj al Arab din Emirate (321) ori piramida lui Keops din Egipt (321 metri). O călătorie cu sistemul pe cablu, până în acest punct, este o experienţă unică. Durează 6 minute, intervalele sunt de 15 minute iar pentru a folosi Cable Car-ul nu e nevoie de rezervare. Localnicii fac la greu turism. Sunt bine organizaţi şi sub aspectul trasportului (aeroport propriu, port şi pentru vase de croazieră, autocare, microbuze şi taxiuri turistice). Ei scot de fiecare dată în faţă povestea maimuţelor magot sau macac, ce trăiesc pe crestele înalte. Sunt grupate într-o colonie de circa 80-100 de exemplare, fiind singura specie de acest fel din Europa care trăieşte în libertate. Conştiente de importanţa lor - soldaţii britanici au în sarcină hrănirea lor în contul unor amintiri frumoase din perioada războaielor -, macacii exersează roluri prietenoase. Pozează zilnic pe umărul miilor de turişti. Atenţie la mişcările bruşte. Vă pot crea situaţii neplăcute. Dacă vă încearcă vreo dorinţă să fugăriţi simpaticele creaturi, gândiţi-vă bine, riscaţi să fiţi amendaţi cu... 500 de lire gibralteze. Nu vă iartă nimeni. Nu vă plac maimuţele? Luaţi o croazieră de câteva ore pentru a căuta familii graţioase de delfinii din apele oceanului. O altă experienţă de top: turul tunelelor săpate în stâncă. Datează din timpul asediului dintre anii 1779-1783 şi erau folosite pentru păstrarea prafului de puşcă. În al II-lea Război mondial au fost extinse şi perfecţionate de armată, fiind folosite ca sistem de comunicare şi refugiu pentru populaţia civilă.\n\nNeanderthal, concerte şi nunţi\n\nDin topul obiectivelor nu lipseşte peştera Sf. Mihai. A fost folosită iniţial ca spital în perioada celei de-a doua conflagraţii mondiale. Azi este loc de pelerinaj speologic şi arhelogic. Într-o grotă adâncă o să descoperiţi rămăşiţele unui om de Neanderthal, căruia i-a plăcut nespus aici în urmă cu vreo 30.000-70.000 de ani. Arheologii încă nu s-au pus de acord. Peştera reamenajată cu sprijinul Reginei Elizabeta, este frecventată azi de melomani pentru că aici sunt găzduite numeroase concerte, de tinerii care doresc să-şi unească vieţile într-o ceremonie la Capela dintre stânci, dar şi de către oamenii de afaceri care o utilizează ca sală de conferinţe. Nu-i nevoie de amplificare pentru că peştera prezintă o acustică de excepţie.\n\nNu rataţi Castelul Maur (construit prin 1160 de către Abu Hassan); tunul victorian (de o sută de tone, instalat în secolul XIX să apere insula. Perechea lui se află în Malta.); Farul insulei (construit la 1841, la 49 de metri deasupra mării); satul Catalan Bay (mărturie a trecerii genovezilor în secolul XVIII); Europa Point ( cel mai sudic punct al insulei. În vecinătate se află o moschee modernă construită, în secolul trecut, după tot tipicul musulman). Cum orice călătorie începe şi se termină în Piaţa Casemates (Casemates Square), intraţi în magazinele amenajate în fosta garnizoană. În unul, amenajat ca atelier de sticlărie-muzeu, îţi poţi comanda piese create pe gustul tău. Costă, dar face.\n\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU\n...................................................\nCorespondenţă de la INTERNATIONAL POW WOW\nSAN FRANCISCO - Magie, mister, jazz în Harlemul Vestului (2)\n\nExistă mai multe feluri de a explora oraş. Iar jurnaliştii de turism, circa 400, care au participat la International POW WOW găzduit de Moscone Convention Center din San Francisco, şi-au exprimat preferinţele în funcţie de profilul publicaţiilor pe care le-au reprezentat.\n\nToate drumurile care duc spre atracţiile din San Francisco pornesc sau trec prin Union Square. Aici poţi savura atmosfera hotelurilor de altă dată intrând la St. Francis. A fost construit în 1904. Master Chef-ul Victor Hirtzler, a întocmit prima carte de bucate pentru uzul intern iar James Wood a fost primul dintre vestiţii manageri care au dat strălucire serviciilor de lux. Nu se uită nimeni urât la tine când intri să admiri muzeul aflat la parter în vecinătatea recepţiei şi a cafenelei. Obiecte, cărţi, fotografii cu celebrităţi care au trecut pe aici. Shirley Temple, copilul artist-minune al cinematografiei mondiale deschide galeria. Alte imagini redau efectele cutremurul devastator din 1906. Personalul te bombardează cu cât mai multe date. Aşa că ai şansa să ieşi din St. Francis doctor în istoria hotelăriei locale. Mi s-a părut relevantă şi această informaţie. În 1909 lua fiinţă San Francisco Visitors Promotion Agency care va funcţiona în cadrul San Francisco Convention & Tourist League. Deci făcătorii de turism din acest oraş se pot mândri că organizaţia lor a depăşit un secol de existenţă. Din ianuarie 2011 ea şi-a adaptat numele devenind San Francisco Travel Association.\n\n\nCe-am citit în „Biblioteca ţesăturilor”\n\nUnii jurnalişti au ales programe efectuate cu tramvaiul turistic, Cable Car fiind zilnic asaltat de mii de persoane. Alţii s-au folosit fie de Bus-urile turistice, asigurate de 4 companii de transport, de tranvaiele de linie, albastre, roşii, verzi, galbene, datând de la jumătatea secolului trecut. Vapoarele de croazieră au fost de asemenea căutate de amatorii de a vizita într-un tur exclusiv legendara Insulă Alcatraz, azi transformată într-un loc de pelerinaj turistic şi în Parc tematic natural.\nTestasem anterior o parte din aceste atracţii. Am fost curioşi să vedem ce mai pot inventa organizatorii de turism din San Francisco? A fost foarte greu să ne decidem şi atunci am împărţit echipa în două. Un prim tur s-a concentrat pe tema „Biblioteca ţesăturilor”. A fost o veritabilă trecere în revistă a unor magazine celebre, care păstrează atmosfera eleganţei manufacturilor de altădată. Ne-am familiarizat cu modul în care se produceau pălăriile domnilor. Cum şi unde se păstrau circa 50.000 de modele de nasturi proveniţi din întreaga lume. Cum se aranjau pe rafturi, şi asta era o veritabilă artă, valurile de materiale, de la mătase până la dantele. Spectacolul cu uşile deschise se produce zilnic la magazinul Britex Fabrics, fondat în 1952 de către comercianţii Martin and Lucy Spector. Cum altfel, doar este una dintre mărcile oraşului apreciată de artişi şi creatori precum Diane Von Furstenberg, Christian Louboutin, Colleen Atwood, David Bromstad ori Cher. Am reuşit să aflăm câteva secrete despre producerea celebrilor jeansi Levis într-un magazin specializat. Aici, printre altele, ţi se poate determina mărimea şi forma jeansi-lor care se potrivesc siluetei tale, într-o cabină de probă echipată cu computer specializat în... măsurători.\n\nÎn căutarea lui Hendrix, Parker şi Armstrong\n\nCa şi tururile pentru iubitorii artei culinare şi ai degustătorilor de vinuri, circuitul muzical se adresează cunoscătorilor. Şi se realizează autobuzul muzical – Magic Mystery Tour sau Magic Bus. E o minune retro realizată în interiorul unui mijloc de transport salvat de la fiare vechi.

Cel mai cotat este fără îndoială Restaurantul design 1300 on Fillmore. În fiecare weekend puteţi audia spectacole live de gospel. Ne-am nimerit la momentul oportun acolo, pentru a savura împreună cu clienţii localului o partidă de muzică. Ca între cunoscători. O atmosferă specială. Majoritatea mesenilor dublau ca nişte profesionişti, evoluţia soliştilor.

liber la maimuţe\n\nDacă v-aţi săturat de destinaţiile clasice, ei bine merită să încercaţi o experienţă neconvenţinală. Ca şi Andora ori San Marino, Gibraltarul este o destinaţie de „buzunar”. E o limbă de pământ disputată pentru poziţia ei în istorie de arabi, spanioli şi britanici, cei din urmă fiind administratorii, printr-un guvernator ce reprezintă monarhia britanică.\n\nCum poţi ajunge în Gibraltar (numele provine de la Jabal Tariq, ce înseamnă Muntele Cărării)? Nu e complicat. Cumpără o vacanţă pe unele din Costele spaniole. Apoi ia o excursie opţională de o zi. Să aveţi în vedere că Gibraltarul este zonă liberă de taxe iar băuturile şi ţigările pot fi achiziţionate la preţuri mai mult decât onorabile. Atenţie, nu puteţi cumpăra cumpăra decât o sticlă de alcool şi un cartuş de ţigări de persoană. Dar controlul vamal este mai mult o... invitaţie turistică.

Sunt britanici, spanioli, arabi, evrei etc. Se simt bine în această colonie a Marii Britanii adjudecată de englezi în 1704 în timpul războiului de succesiune din Spania.\n\nMai tari decât Turnul Eiffel\n\nGibraltarul e faimos pentru istoria veche (de aici au pornit spaniolii în secolele XVI şi XVII spre America), dar şi pentru cea relativ recentă (în timpul celor două războaie mondiale a servit ca bază pentru vasele de război engleze şi americane). „Sita” militară din Oceanul Atlantic a jucat un rol strategic. Vremurile au apus rămânând în urma lor multe repere ale unei istorii dure ori romantice. Majoritatea clădirilor militare sunt funcţionale şi azi, o parte fiind convertite cu succes în... atracţii turistice. Ofertele sunt la înălţime şi acest aspect este speculat din abundenţă din perspectiva promovării Gibraltarului. Inclusiv pe mărcile poştale. Pe biletul Cable Car, sunt tipărite exemple care pun în valoare cei 412 metri înălţime cât are cel mai înalt vârf al stâncii. El e comparat cu Empire State Building, una dintre cele mai înalte clădiri din New York (381 metri), Turnul Eiffel (324), hotelul Burj al Arab din Emirate (321) ori piramida lui Keops din Egipt (321 metri). O călătorie cu sistemul pe cablu, până în acest punct, este o experienţă unică. Durează 6 minute, intervalele sunt de 15 minute iar pentru a folosi Cable Car-ul nu e nevoie de rezervare. Localnicii fac la greu turism. Sunt bine organizaţi şi sub aspectul trasportului (aeroport propriu, port şi pentru vase de croazieră, autocare, microbuze şi taxiuri turistice).

Luaţi o croazieră de câteva ore pentru a căuta familii graţioase de delfinii din apele oceanului. O altă experienţă de top: turul tunelelor săpate în stâncă. Datează din timpul asediului dintre anii 1779-1783 şi erau folosite pentru păstrarea prafului de puşcă.

Peştera reamenajată cu sprijinul Reginei Elizabeta, este frecventată azi de melomani pentru că aici sunt găzduite numeroase concerte, de tinerii care doresc să-şi unească vieţile într-o ceremonie la Capela dintre stânci, dar şi de către oamenii de afaceri care o utilizează ca sală de conferinţe.

Costă, dar face.\n\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU\n...................................................\nCorespondenţă de la INTERNATIONAL POW WOW\nSAN FRANCISCO - Magie, mister, jazz în Harlemul Vestului (2)\n\n\nExistă mai multe feluri de a explora oraş. Iar jurnaliştii de turism, circa 400, care au participat la International POW WOW găzduit de Moscone Convention Center din San Francisco, şi-au exprimat preferinţele în funcţie de profilul publicaţiilor pe care le-au reprezentat.\n\nToate drumurile care duc spre atracţiile din San Francisco pornesc sau trec prin Union Square. Aici poţi savura atmosfera hotelurilor de altă dată intrând la St. Francis. A fost construit în 1904. Master Chef-ul Victor Hirtzler, a întocmit prima carte de bucate pentru uzul intern iar James Wood a fost primul dintre vestiţii manageri care au dat strălucire serviciilor de lux. Nu se uită nimeni urât la tine când intri să admiri muzeul aflat la parter în vecinătatea recepţiei şi a cafenelei. Obiecte, cărţi, fotografii cu celebrităţi care au trecut pe aici. Shirley Temple, copilul artist-minune al cinematografiei mondiale deschide galeria. Alte imagini redau efectele cutremurul devastator din 1906. Personalul te bombardează cu cât mai multe date. Aşa că ai şansa să ieşi din St. Francis doctor în istoria hotelăriei locale. Mi s-a părut relevantă şi această informaţie. În 1909 lua fiinţă San Francisco Visitors Promotion Agency care va funcţiona în cadrul San Francisco Convention & Tourist League. Deci făcătorii de turism din acest oraş se pot mândri că organizaţia lor a depăşit un secol de existenţă. Din ianuarie 2011 ea şi-a adaptat numele devenind San Francisco Travel Association.\n\nCe-am citit în „Biblioteca ţesăturilor”\n\nUnii jurnalişti au ales programe efectuate cu tramvaiul turistic, Cable Car fiind zilnic asaltat de mii de persoane. Alţii s-au folosit fie de Bus-urile turistice, asigurate de 4 companii de transport, de tranvaiele de linie, albastre, roşii, verzi, galbene, datând de la jumătatea secolului trecut. Vapoarele de croazieră au fost de asemenea căutate de amatorii de a vizita într-un tur exclusiv legendara Insulă Alcatraz, azi transformată într-un loc de pelerinaj turistic şi în Parc tematic natural.\nTestasem anterior o parte din aceste atracţii. Am fost curioşi să vedem ce mai pot inventa organizatorii de turism din San Francisco? A fost foarte greu să ne decidem şi atunci am împărţit echipa în două. Un prim tur s-a concentrat pe tema „Biblioteca ţesăturilor”. A fost o veritabilă trecere în revistă a unor magazine celebre, care păstrează atmosfera eleganţei manufacturilor de altădată. Ne-am familiarizat cu modul în care se produceau pălăriile domnilor. Cum şi unde se păstrau circa 50.000 de modele de nasturi proveniţi din întreaga lume. Cum se aranjau pe rafturi, şi asta era o veritabilă artă, valurile de materiale, de la mătase până la dantele. Spectacolul cu uşile deschise se produce zilnic la magazinul Britex Fabrics, fondat în 1952 de către comercianţii Martin and Lucy Spector. Cum altfel, doar este una dintre mărcile oraşului apreciată de artişi şi creatori precum Diane Von Furstenberg, Christian Louboutin, Colleen Atwood, David Bromstad ori Cher. Am reuşit să aflăm câteva secrete despre producerea celebrilor jeansi Levis într-un magazin specializat. Aici, printre altele, ţi se poate determina mărimea şi forma jeansi-lor care se potrivesc siluetei tale, într-o cabină de probă echipată cu computer specializat în... măsurători.\n\nÎn căutarea lui Hendrix, Parker şi Armstrong\n\nCa şi tururile pentru iubitorii artei culinare şi ai degustătorilor de vinuri, circuitul muzical se adresează cunoscătorilor. Şi se realizează autobuzul muzical – Magic Mystery Tour sau Magic Bus. E o minune retro realizată în interiorul unui mijloc de transport salvat de la fiare vechi. E decorat cu flori de margarete, asta pentru ca să-ţi aduci aminte de generaţiile flower-power ale anilor ’60. Nu întâmplător. În interior beneficiezi de filme. Prin cele 16 proiectoare cu ecrane ce se suprapun pe ferestrele autobuzului sunt reconstituite, timp de 90 de minute, momente importante ale istoriei muzicale a mişcării hippy. De la The Beatles citire. Un veritabil cinematograf pe roţi. Programul a fost creat şi iniţiat de către domnul Chris Hordman. Ghidul nostru nu este o persoană oarecare. Joel Selvin este titularul rubricii muzicale la San Francisco Chronicle. Lui i s-a alăturat Lewis Watts, scriitor, co-autor al volumului de referinţă „Harlem of the West”: În acesta sunt reconstituite o mare parte din momentele magice ale muzicii din San Francisco.\n\n„Magic Bus” străbate Haight Ashbury (cu spectaculoasele case victoriene, zugrăvite în culori pastelate, denumite de către localnici „the old painted ladies”, Golden Gate şi North Beach, China Town, Haight Street şi Civic Center, ale căror case sunt pictate cu figuri ce amintesc de figuri celebre ale rock and roll-ului. The Fillmore este inima spectacolelor, cartierul muzicii live din vechiul San Francisco. Localnicii îl consideră drept Harlemul Vestului, şi-l promovează în acest fel în agenda de evenimente. Momentul de vârf a fost atins în perioada 1960-‘65. Atunciîn Fillmore Auditorium au explodat spectacole legendare cu Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix, B.B King şi Jefferson Airplane, Herbie Hancock. Datorită lui Bill Graham cel mai cunoscut organizator de concerte din epocă, Sala Auditorium posedă o impresionantă colecţie cu afişele înrămate ale respectivelor evenimente. Ele reflectă evoluţia graficii şi design-ului înfluenţate de curentele muzicale pop, rock şi jazz. Turul nostru a continuat împreună cu Claudia A. Polley, directorul Jazz Heritage Center de pe Fillmore Street. În cartierul muzicii am frecventat muzee, săli de spectacole azi dezafectate, săli care atrag sute de îndrăgostiţi ai dansului - cha-cha-cha alături de tangou fiind unul dintre cele mai iubite -, magazine care expun la loc de glorie afişe originale cu legendari muzicieni precum Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Chet Baker, Duke Ellington ori John Coltrane.\n\nCa între cunoscători\n\nEi bine Fillmore Street nu trăieşte numai din amintiri. Aici se regăsesc o parte din renumitele restaurante, vechi sau mai noi, unde te poţi delecta cu muzică tradiţională de calitate. La „The Boom Boom Room”, specializat în blues, boogie şi soul, dansurile se îmbină armonios cu coctailurile asortate; la Sheba Piano Lounge, spectacole de noapte acoperă o varietate de expresii muzicale, de la latino-jazz pînă afro-funk; iar Yoshi’s Jazz Club, un local cu 400 de locuri la care foarte rar găseşti locuri libere, oferă în fiecare seară un repertoriu bogat din jazzului mondial. Cel mai cotat este fără îndoială Restaurantul design 1300 on Fillmore. În fiecare weekend puteţi audia spectacole live de gospel. Ne-am nimerit la momentul oportun acolo, pentru a savura împreună cu clienţii localului o partidă de muzică. Ca între cunoscători. O atmosferă specială. Majoritatea mesenilor dublau ca nişte profesionişti, evoluţia soliştilor. La intrare se află un salon-expoziţie în care sunt depozitate imagini cu vechi localuri, unele dintre ele dispărute, unde cîndva se mînca jazz pe... pâine. 1300 on Fillmore este căutat şi pentru gastronomia sa selectă pusă în operă sub privirea exigentă a Chefului David Lawrence şi a managerului Monetta White.\n\nDiscul de vinilin nu a murit\n\nAr fi păcat să nu relatăm încă o experienţă memorabilă. Am trăit-o intrând în magazinul Amoeba Music. Mi-ar place să avem în România aşa ceva. Mai ales că nu ar fi imposibil. Vă vine sau nu să credeţi a arunca un disc de vinilin la gunoi reprezintă un act de vandalism cultural. Amoeba Music are un rol extraordinar în San Francisco. Este o bursă a muzicii înregistrate pe plăci în principal, este locul unde poţi să vinzi dar şi să cumperi discuri cu muzicieni celebri, afişe originale sau copii, şi multe alte obiecte vechi ce fac parte din generaţia Pick-up-ului. Există o puternică mişcare retro, în rândul tinerilor americani, o mare parte dintre ei saturaţi de CD ori Ipod etc. Sute de tineri vin şi caută zilnic aici, bijuterii muzicale, înregistrate pe sigle, LP ori dublu LP. Costă de la 5 până la 100-120 de dolari un disc de vinilin. Ca şi un afiş original de la concertele Beatles, Rolling Stones, ABBA, Michael Jackson etc. Vestea bună este că discul clasic n-a murit. Vestea proastă este că la noi încă nu s-a auzit de ea. Pe curând.\n\nDOINA, MARIAN & SÂNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\n\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul \nU.S. TRAVEL ASSOCIATION & TRAVELPORT ROMANIA','Mapamond nr. 88-89(iulie-august 2011)','','inherit','open','open','','531-autosave','','','2011-08-03 23:33:34','2011-08-03 21:33:34','',531,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/08/03/531-autosave/',0,'revision','',0),(555,1,'2011-08-03 23:18:54','2011-08-03 21:18:54','GIBRALTAR – liber la maimuţe\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\"]\r\n\r\nDacă v-aţi săturat de destinaţiile clasice, ei bine merită să încercaţi o experienţă neconvenţinală.

Din ianuarie 2011 ea şi-a adaptat numele devenind San Francisco Travel Association.\r\n\r\n\r\nCe-am citit în „Biblioteca ţesăturilor”\r\n\r\nUnii jurnalişti au ales programe efectuate cu tramvaiul turistic, Cable Car fiind zilnic asaltat de mii de persoane. Alţii s-au folosit fie de Bus-urile turistice, asigurate de 4 companii de transport, de tranvaiele de linie, albastre, roşii, verzi, galbene, datând de la jumătatea secolului trecut. Vapoarele de croazieră au fost de asemenea căutate de amatorii de a vizita într-un tur exclusiv legendara Insulă Alcatraz, azi transformată într-un loc de pelerinaj turistic şi în Parc tematic natural.\r\nTestasem anterior o parte din aceste atracţii. Am fost curioşi să vedem ce mai pot inventa organizatorii de turism din San Francisco? A fost foarte greu să ne decidem şi atunci am împărţit echipa în două. Un prim tur s-a concentrat pe tema „Biblioteca ţesăturilor”. A fost o veritabilă trecere în revistă a unor magazine celebre, care păstrează atmosfera eleganţei manufacturilor de altădată. Ne-am familiarizat cu modul în care se produceau pălăriile domnilor. Cum şi unde se păstrau circa 50.000 de modele de nasturi proveniţi din întreaga lume. Cum se aranjau pe rafturi, şi asta era o veritabilă artă, valurile de materiale, de la mătase până la dantele. Spectacolul cu uşile deschise se produce zilnic la magazinul Britex Fabrics, fondat în 1952 de către comercianţii Martin and Lucy Spector. Cum altfel, doar este una dintre mărcile oraşului apreciată de artişi şi creatori precum Diane Von Furstenberg, Christian Louboutin, Colleen Atwood, David Bromstad ori Cher. Am reuşit să aflăm câteva secrete despre producerea celebrilor jeansi Levis într-un magazin specializat. Aici, printre altele, ţi se poate determina mărimea şi forma jeansi-lor care se potrivesc siluetei tale, într-o cabină de probă echipată cu computer specializat în... măsurători.\r\n\r\nÎn căutarea lui Hendrix, Parker şi Armstrong\r\n\r\nCa şi tururile pentru iubitorii artei culinare şi ai degustătorilor de vinuri, circuitul muzical se adresează cunoscătorilor. Şi se realizează autobuzul muzical – Magic Mystery Tour sau Magic Bus. E o minune retro realizată în interiorul unui mijloc de transport salvat de la fiare vechi. E decorat cu flori de margarete, asta pentru ca să-ţi aduci aminte de generaţiile flower-power ale anilor ’60. Nu întâmplător. În interior beneficiezi de filme. Prin cele 16 proiectoare cu ecrane ce se suprapun pe ferestrele autobuzului sunt reconstituite, timp de 90 de minute, momente importante ale istoriei muzicale a mişcării hippy. De la The Beatles citire. Un veritabil cinematograf pe roţi. Programul a fost creat şi iniţiat de către domnul Chris Hordman. Ghidul nostru nu este o persoană oarecare. Joel Selvin este titularul rubricii muzicale la San Francisco Chronicle. Lui i s-a alăturat Lewis Watts, scriitor, co-autor al volumului de referinţă „Harlem of the West”: În acesta sunt reconstituite o mare parte din momentele magice ale muzicii din San Francisco.\r\n\r\n„Magic Bus” străbate Haight Ashbury (cu spectaculoasele case victoriene, zugrăvite în culori pastelate, denumite de către localnici „the old painted ladies”, Golden Gate şi North Beach, China Town, Haight Street şi Civic Center, ale căror case sunt pictate cu figuri ce amintesc de figuri celebre ale rock and roll-ului. The Fillmore este inima spectacolelor, cartierul muzicii live din vechiul San Francisco. Localnicii îl consideră drept Harlemul Vestului, şi-l promovează în acest fel în agenda de evenimente. Momentul de vârf a fost atins în perioada 1960-‘65. Atunciîn Fillmore Auditorium au explodat spectacole legendare cu Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix, B.B King şi Jefferson Airplane, Herbie Hancock. Datorită lui Bill Graham cel mai cunoscut organizator de concerte din epocă, Sala Auditorium posedă o impresionantă colecţie cu afişele înrămate ale respectivelor evenimente. Ele reflectă evoluţia graficii şi design-ului înfluenţate de curentele muzicale pop, rock şi jazz. Turul nostru a continuat împreună cu Claudia A. Polley, directorul Jazz Heritage Center de pe Fillmore Street. În cartierul muzicii am frecventat muzee, săli de spectacole azi dezafectate, săli care atrag sute de îndrăgostiţi ai dansului - cha-cha-cha alături de tangou fiind unul dintre cele mai iubite -, magazine care expun la loc de glorie afişe originale cu legendari muzicieni precum Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Chet Baker, Duke Ellington ori John Coltrane.\r\n\r\nCa între cunoscători\r\n\r\nEi bine Fillmore Street nu trăieşte numai din amintiri. Aici se regăsesc o parte din renumitele restaurante, vechi sau mai noi, unde te poţi delecta cu muzică tradiţională de calitate. La „The Boom Boom Room”, specializat în blues, boogie şi soul, dansurile se îmbină armonios cu coctailurile asortate; la Sheba Piano Lounge, spectacole de noapte acoperă o varietate de expresii muzicale, de la latino-jazz pînă afro-funk; iar Yoshi’s Jazz Club, un local cu 400 de locuri la care foarte rar găseşti locuri libere, oferă în fiecare seară un repertoriu bogat din jazzului mondial. Cel mai cotat este fără îndoială Restaurantul design 1300 on Fillmore. În fiecare weekend puteţi audia spectacole live de gospel. Ne-am nimerit la momentul oportun acolo, pentru a savura împreună cu clienţii localului o partidă de muzică. Ca între cunoscători. O atmosferă specială. Majoritatea mesenilor dublau ca nişte profesionişti, evoluţia soliştilor. La intrare se află un salon-expoziţie în care sunt depozitate imagini cu vechi localuri, unele dintre ele dispărute, unde cîndva se mînca jazz pe... pâine. 1300 on Fillmore este căutat şi pentru gastronomia sa selectă pusă în operă sub privirea exigentă a Chefului David Lawrence şi a managerului Monetta White.\r\n\r\nDiscul de vinilin nu a murit\r\n\r\nAr fi păcat să nu relatăm încă o experienţă memorabilă. Am trăit-o intrând în magazinul Amoeba Music. Mi-ar place să avem în România aşa ceva. Mai ales că nu ar fi imposibil. Vă vine sau nu să credeţi a arunca un disc de vinilin la gunoi reprezintă un act de vandalism cultural. Amoeba Music are un rol extraordinar în San Francisco. Este o bursă a muzicii înregistrate pe plăci în principal, este locul unde poţi să vinzi dar şi să cumperi discuri cu muzicieni celebri, afişe originale sau copii, şi multe alte obiecte vechi ce fac parte din generaţia Pick-up-ului. Există o puternică mişcare retro, în rândul tinerilor americani, o mare parte dintre ei saturaţi de CD ori Ipod etc. Sute de tineri vin şi caută zilnic aici, bijuterii muzicale, înregistrate pe sigle, LP ori dublu LP. Costă de la 5 până la 100-120 de dolari un disc de vinilin. Ca şi un afiş original de la concertele Beatles, Rolling Stones, ABBA, Michael Jackson etc. Vestea bună este că discul clasic n-a murit. Vestea proastă este că la noi încă nu s-a auzit de ea. Pe curând.\r\n\r\nDOINA, MARIAN & SÂNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul \r\nU.S. TRAVEL ASSOCIATION & TRAVELPORT ROMANIA','Mapamond nr. 88-89(iulie-august 2011)','','inherit','open','open','','531-revision-2','','','2011-08-03 23:18:54','2011-08-03 21:18:54','',531,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/08/03/531-revision-2/',0,'revision','',0),(556,1,'2011-08-03 23:30:24','2011-08-03 21:30:24','','Gibraltar 234','','inherit','open','open','','gibraltar-234-2','','','2011-08-03 23:30:24','2011-08-03 21:30:24','',531,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Gibraltar-2341.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(557,1,'2011-08-03 23:30:55','2011-08-03 21:30:55','','Gibraltar 240','','inherit','open','open','','gibraltar-240-2','','','2011-08-03 23:30:55','2011-08-03 21:30:55','',531,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Gibraltar-2401.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(558,1,'2011-08-03 23:31:33','2011-08-03 21:31:33','','Gibraltar 255','','inherit','open','open','','gibraltar-255-2','','','2011-08-03 23:31:33','2011-08-03 21:31:33','',531,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Gibraltar-2551.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(559,1,'2011-08-03 23:32:04','2011-08-03 21:32:04','','Gibraltar 271','','inherit','open','open','','gibraltar-271-2','','','2011-08-03 23:32:04','2011-08-03 21:32:04','',531,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Gibraltar-2711.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(560,1,'2011-08-03 23:27:33','2011-08-03 21:27:33','GIBRALTAR – liber la maimuţe\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\"]\r\n\r\nDacă v-aţi săturat de destinaţiile clasice, ei bine merită să încercaţi o experienţă neconvenţinală. Ca şi Andora ori San Marino, Gibraltarul este o destinaţie de „buzunar”. E o limbă de pământ disputată pentru poziţia ei în istorie de arabi, spanioli şi britanici, cei din urmă fiind administratorii, printr-un guvernator ce reprezintă monarhia britanică.\r\n\r\nCum poţi ajunge în Gibraltar (numele provine de la Jabal Tariq, ce înseamnă Muntele Cărării)? Nu e complicat. Cumpără o vacanţă pe unele din Costele spaniole. Apoi ia o excursie opţională de o zi. Să aveţi în vedere că Gibraltarul este zonă liberă de taxe iar băuturile şi ţigările pot fi achiziţionate la preţuri mai mult decât onorabile. Atenţie, nu puteţi cumpăra cumpăra decât o sticlă de alcool şi un cartuş de ţigări de persoană. Dar controlul vamal este mai mult o... invitaţie turistică. Puteţi schimba bani în lire sterline... gibralteze. Dar euro e suveran ca şi lira engleză, aşa că mergeţi la cumpărături relaxaţi. Bani să aveţi. Legenda, căruia i s-a dus buhu, shopping-ul, atrage o mare parte din cei peste 4 milioane de turişti internaţionali care vin anual pe acest petic peninsular. Are doar 6,5 kilometri pătraţi şi circa 30.000 de locuitori. E ceva nu? Sunt britanici, spanioli, arabi, evrei etc. Se simt bine în această colonie a Marii Britanii adjudecată de englezi în 1704 în timpul războiului de succesiune din Spania.\r\n\r\nMai tari decât Turnul Eiffel\r\n\r\nGibraltarul e faimos pentru istoria veche (de aici au pornit spaniolii în secolele XVI şi XVII spre America), dar şi pentru cea relativ recentă (în timpul celor două războaie mondiale a servit ca bază pentru vasele de război engleze şi americane). „Sita” militară din Oceanul Atlantic a jucat un rol strategic. Vremurile au apus rămânând în urma lor multe repere ale unei istorii dure ori romantice. Majoritatea clădirilor militare sunt funcţionale şi azi, o parte fiind convertite cu succes în... atracţii turistice. Ofertele sunt la înălţime şi acest aspect este speculat din abundenţă din perspectiva promovării Gibraltarului. Inclusiv pe mărcile poştale. Pe biletul Cable Car, sunt tipărite exemple care pun în valoare cei 412 metri înălţime cât are cel mai înalt vârf al stâncii. El e comparat cu Empire State Building, una dintre cele mai înalte clădiri din New York (381 metri), Turnul Eiffel (324), hotelul Burj al Arab din Emirate (321) ori piramida lui Keops din Egipt (321 metri). O călătorie cu sistemul pe cablu, până în acest punct, este o experienţă unică. Durează 6 minute, intervalele sunt de 15 minute iar pentru a folosi Cable Car-ul nu e nevoie de rezervare. Localnicii fac la greu turism. Sunt bine organizaţi şi sub aspectul trasportului (aeroport propriu, port şi pentru vase de croazieră, autocare, microbuze şi taxiuri turistice). Ei scot de fiecare dată în faţă povestea maimuţelor magot sau macac, ce trăiesc pe crestele înalte. Sunt grupate într-o colonie de circa 80-100 de exemplare, fiind singura specie de acest fel din Europa care trăieşte în libertate. Conştiente de importanţa lor - soldaţii britanici au în sarcină hrănirea lor în contul unor amintiri frumoase din perioada războaielor -, macacii exersează roluri prietenoase. Pozează zilnic pe umărul miilor de turişti. Atenţie la mişcările bruşte. Vă pot crea situaţii neplăcute. Dacă vă încearcă vreo dorinţă să fugăriţi simpaticele creaturi, gândiţi-vă bine, riscaţi să fiţi amendaţi cu... 500 de lire gibralteze. Nu vă iartă nimeni. Nu vă plac maimuţele? Luaţi o croazieră de câteva ore pentru a căuta familii graţioase de delfinii din apele oceanului. O altă experienţă de top: turul tunelelor săpate în stâncă. Datează din timpul asediului dintre anii 1779-1783 şi erau folosite pentru păstrarea prafului de puşcă. În al II-lea Război mondial au fost extinse şi perfecţionate de armată, fiind folosite ca sistem de comunicare şi refugiu pentru populaţia civilă.\r\n\r\nNeanderthal, concerte şi nunţi\r\n\r\nDin topul obiectivelor nu lipseşte peştera Sf. Mihai. A fost folosită iniţial ca spital în perioada celei de-a doua conflagraţii mondiale. Azi este loc de pelerinaj speologic şi arhelogic. Într-o grotă adâncă o să descoperiţi rămăşiţele unui om de Neanderthal, căruia i-a plăcut nespus aici în urmă cu vreo 30.000-70.000 de ani. Arheologii încă nu s-au pus de acord. Peştera reamenajată cu sprijinul Reginei Elizabeta, este frecventată azi de melomani pentru că aici sunt găzduite numeroase concerte, de tinerii care doresc să-şi unească vieţile într-o ceremonie la Capela dintre stânci, dar şi de către oamenii de afaceri care o utilizează ca sală de conferinţe. Nu-i nevoie de amplificare pentru că peştera prezintă o acustică de excepţie.\r\n\r\nNu rataţi Castelul Maur (construit prin 1160 de către Abu Hassan); tunul victorian (de o sută de tone, instalat în secolul XIX să apere insula. Perechea lui se află în Malta.); Farul insulei (construit la 1841, la 49 de metri deasupra mării); satul Catalan Bay (mărturie a trecerii genovezilor în secolul XVIII); Europa Point ( cel mai sudic punct al insulei. În vecinătate se află o moschee modernă construită, în secolul trecut, după tot tipicul musulman). Cum orice călătorie începe şi se termină în Piaţa Casemates (Casemates Square), intraţi în magazinele amenajate în fosta garnizoană. În unul, amenajat ca atelier de sticlărie-muzeu, îţi poţi comanda piese create pe gustul tău. Costă, dar face.\r\n\r\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n...................................................\r\nCorespondenţă de la INTERNATIONAL POW WOW\r\nSAN FRANCISCO - Magie, mister, jazz în Harlemul Vestului (2)\r\n\r\n\r\nExistă mai multe feluri de a explora oraş. Iar jurnaliştii de turism, circa 400, care au participat la International POW WOW găzduit de Moscone Convention Center din San Francisco, şi-au exprimat preferinţele în funcţie de profilul publicaţiilor pe care le-au reprezentat.\r\n\r\nToate drumurile care duc spre atracţiile din San Francisco pornesc sau trec prin Union Square. Aici poţi savura atmosfera hotelurilor de altă dată intrând la St. Francis. A fost construit în 1904. Master Chef-ul Victor Hirtzler, a întocmit prima carte de bucate pentru uzul intern iar James Wood a fost primul dintre vestiţii manageri care au dat strălucire serviciilor de lux. Nu se uită nimeni urât la tine când intri să admiri muzeul aflat la parter în vecinătatea recepţiei şi a cafenelei. Obiecte, cărţi, fotografii cu celebrităţi care au trecut pe aici. Shirley Temple, copilul artist-minune al cinematografiei mondiale deschide galeria. Alte imagini redau efectele cutremurul devastator din 1906. Personalul te bombardează cu cât mai multe date. Aşa că ai şansa să ieşi din St. Francis doctor în istoria hotelăriei locale. Mi s-a părut relevantă şi această informaţie. În 1909 lua fiinţă San Francisco Visitors Promotion Agency care va funcţiona în cadrul San Francisco Convention & Tourist League. Deci făcătorii de turism din acest oraş se pot mândri că organizaţia lor a depăşit un secol de existenţă.

Peste 250 de ziarişti şi scriitori internaţionali de travel se vor întâlni în România pentru a descoperi o parte din cele mai cotate atracţii pe care le deţine ţara noastră. Startul la maratonul promovării va fi dat la Palatul Parlamentului din Bucureşti ce va găzdui un eveniment unic: al 53-lea Congres mondial al Federaţiei Internaţionale a Jurnaliştilor şi Editorilor din Turism (FIJET). El se va desfăşura între 17 şi 25 septembrie şi va avea ca temă centrală „Patrimoniul cultural mondial reflectat în presa de turism”. Vizitele de documentare vor începe la Palatul Parlamentului şi vor continua la Muzeul Naţional Cotroceni. După aceea va urma un circuit de peste 1.200 de kilometri, ce va include zona Bacăului (cu vestitele podgorii de la Cotnari), Suceava (Fălticeni, Marginea cu renumitele sale ateliere de ceramică neagră, ce au o vechime de peste 500 de ani; mănăstirile Moldoviţa (distinsă de FIJET în 1975 cu trofeul Mărul de Aur (Golden Apple); Suceviţa, Voroneţ şi Gura Humorului). În această zonă invitaţii vor călătorii cu Mocăniţa şi caii huţuli de la o herghelie istorică şi se vor opri în Ciocăneşti, sat promovat ca muzeul viu al tradiţiilor bucovinene. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Fijet-oaspeti.jpg\" "\\"Fijet")

României. Aceasta se va derula pe parcursul a 12 luni şi va include distribuţia în diferite intervale orare, a unor spoturi publicitare cu o mărime cuprinsă între 20 şi 30 de secunde. Conceptul spoturilor subliniază valorile României, resursele naturale incontestabile, valorile moştenirii culturale, un mix bogat în influenţe istorice, autenticitate românească şi tradiţional. Posturile de televiziune internaţionale au fost selectate în funcţie de audienţa în rândul persoanelor cu venituri peste medie care călătoresc (în interes de afaceri şi de plăcere, de cel puţin 6 ori pe an), conform datelor pe anul 2010, furnizate de European Media and Marketing Survey (EMS).

\r\nPotrivit ultimului Eurobarometru pentru turism al Comisiei Europene ne aflăm pe locul 10 în topul ţărilor pentru care optează cetăţenii Uniunii Europene ca destinaţie de vacanţă în acest an. România este preferată de 1,8% din totalul cetăţenilor UE. Potrivit studiului în acest procent se regăsesc numeroase categorii, de la turiştii individuali până la cei care preferă tururile organizate sau deplasările pentru afaceri şi conferinţe.\r\n\r\nPrimele 5 cele mai căutate ţări sunt Italia 11,5%, Spania 8,6%, Franţa 8,2%, Germania 5,2% şi Marea Britanie 3,9%. Surprinzător. Turcia este preferată de numai 1,6%, iar Bulgaria şi Croaţia de către 1,2% dintre cetăţenii celor 27 de state membre ale Uniunii Europene. În topul preferinţelor turiştilor comunitari care îşi vor petrece vacanţa în altă ţară decât cea de origine se află Spania 6,6%, Italia 5,8%, Franţa 4,4%, SUA 3,5% şi Grecia 3,1%. Citiţi cu atenţie, domnilor travel-agenţi!\r\n___________________________________________________
\r\nPE ASTA O ŞTIAŢI ?
\r\nRomânii se bat pentru un Cod mondial de etică în turism. Asta a promovat o delegaţie a ministerului de resort la Mombasa (Kenya) unde s-au derulat lucrările celei de-a 90-a sesiuni a Consiliului Executiv al Organizaţiei Mondiale a Turismului. Noul Cod va avea un caracter voluntar şi complementar faţă de documentul similar existent. Lansarea propunerii a generat comentarii favorabile, mai ales că abordarea pragmatică va conduce la creşterea rolului OMT în cadrul industriei mondiale de turism. Pe agenda evenimentului s-au regăsit teme de interes precum dezvoltare a turismului pe plan mondial, dar şi perspectivele ce ţintesc anii 2030. Pentru anul 2011, preşedinţia Consiliului Executiv al OMT este deţinută de Italia, iar vicepreşedinţia de către Kenya şi România.

\r\n“HAI LA BĂI” PÂNĂ PE 15 SEPTEMBRIE\r\n\r\nPână la această data se va derula a doua ediţie a programului social balnear cu acest slogan-invitaţie. El conţine preţuri accesibile oferite de o serie de complexe din staţiunile climaterice – precizează liderii Asociaţiei Naţionale a Agenţiilor de Turism (ANAT) şi ai Organizaţiei Patronale din Turismul Balnear (OPTBR). În afară de valorificarea mai bună a capacităţilor de cazare şi tratament, programul doreşte să încurajeze familiile cu copii pentru a-şi petrece vacanţele în scopul refacerii şi întreţinerii sănătăţii. Ca urmare se acordă gratuitate la cazarea copiilor cu vârste de până la 12 ani, ce locuiesc în aceeaşi cameră cu părinţii. “Tariful pentru un pachet de 6 nopţi (pensiune completă, minim 5 zile de tratament cu 2 proceduri pe zi şi o consultaţie medicală) este de 575 de lei per persoană (hotel de 2 stele) respectiv de 690 de lei ( hotel de 3 stele). Tarifele includ şi comisionul agenţiilor de turism” - a declarat Nicu Rădulescu, preşedintele OPTBR.\r\n\r\n___________________________________________________\r\nPÂINEA ANTICA ROMANA A ÎNCEPUT SĂ SE COACĂ

Ar fi păcat să rataţi întâlnirea cu lucrările lui Rudolf Schweitzer-Cumpăna, mai ales că evenimentul marchează împlinirea a 125 de ani de la naştere, aniversare inclusă şi calendarul UNESCO – ne precizează Mihai Ipate, directorul de PR al Muzeului. În Spaţiile Medievale vă veţi delecta cu 120 de lucrări ale artistului născut la Piteşti, pe 7 mai 1886, într-o familie de origine germană. Operele au fost oferite cu generozitate atât de membri Societăţii Colecţionarilor de Artă din România, dar şi de către muzeele partenere. Cu acest prilej a fost editat şi un catalog color, care poate fi achiziţionat, de la shop-ul muzeului.

\r\nMDRT A BĂTUT PALMA CU IBM\r\n\r\nMinisterul de profil a finalizat contractul pentru realizarea Sistemului Informatic de Evidenţă a Turiştilor. Firma care va proiecta şi implementa acest produs este IBM, ce va asigura şi componentele hardware şi software necesare. Ulterior, unităţile de cazare clasificate de pe tot teritoriul României se vor putea înscrie în Sistem şi îl vor accesa zilnic, pentru a înregistra datele cu privire la evidenţa ocupării în propria unitate. Prin intermediul acestuia se va raporta zilnic, de către fiecare unitate de cazare, numărul de turişti înregistraţi în fiecare hotel. În acest fel, MDRT va avea la dispoziţie, pentru prima dată, informaţii reale şi actualizate din acest domeniu. \r\n\r\n ','Evenimente nr. 88-89(iulie-august 2011)','','publish','open','open','','evenimente-nr-88-89iulie-august-2011','','','2011-08-03 23:49:10','2011-08-03 21:49:10','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=561',0,'post','',1),(562,1,'2011-08-03 23:40:56','2011-08-03 21:40:56','','Fijet Sigla','','inherit','open','open','','fijet-sigla','','','2011-08-03 23:40:56','2011-08-03 21:40:56','',561,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Fijet-Sigla.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(563,1,'2011-08-03 23:41:23','2011-08-03 21:41:23','','Fijet oaspeti','','inherit','open','open','','fijet-oaspeti','','','2011-08-03 23:41:23','2011-08-03 21:41:23','',561,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Fijet-oaspeti.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(564,1,'2011-08-03 23:42:15','2011-08-03 21:42:15','','fijet 2','','inherit','open','open','','fijet-2','','','2011-08-03 23:42:15','2011-08-03 21:42:15','',561,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/fijet-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(565,1,'2011-08-03 23:42:45','2011-08-03 21:42:45','','Turnir Brasov 1','','inherit','open','open','','turnir-brasov-1','','','2011-08-03 23:42:45','2011-08-03 21:42:45','',561,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Turnir-Brasov-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(566,1,'2011-08-03 23:43:02','2011-08-03 21:43:02','','Turnir Brasov 1','','inherit','open','open','','turnir-brasov-1-2','','','2011-08-03 23:43:02','2011-08-03 21:43:02','',561,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Turnir-Brasov-11.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(567,1,'2011-08-03 23:44:16','2011-08-03 21:44:16','','image description','','inherit','open','open','','image-description','','','2011-08-03 23:44:16','2011-08-03 21:44:16','',561,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Turnir-Brasov-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(568,1,'2011-08-03 23:45:10','2011-08-03 21:45:10','','Tulcea festival vasle','','inherit','open','open','','tulcea-festival-vasle','','','2011-08-03 23:45:10','2011-08-03 21:45:10','',561,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Tulcea-festival-vasle.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(569,1,'2011-08-03 23:45:48','2011-08-03 21:45:48','','Campionat CNN Romania','','inherit','open','open','','campionat-cnn-romania','','','2011-08-03 23:45:48','2011-08-03 21:45:48','',561,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Campionat-CNN-Romania.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(570,1,'2011-08-03 23:47:33','2011-08-03 21:47:33','','Event Piinea Dacica','','inherit','open','open','','event-piinea-dacica','','','2011-08-03 23:47:33','2011-08-03 21:47:33','',561,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Event-Piinea-Dacica.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(571,1,'2011-08-03 23:48:19','2011-08-03 21:48:19','IN SEPTEMBRIE\nAl 53 Congres FIJET va fi găzduit de ROMÂNIA\n\nPeste 250 de ziarişti şi scriitori internaţionali de travel se vor întâlni în România pentru a descoperi o parte din cele mai cotate atracţii pe care le deţine ţara noastră.

Potrivit studiului în acest procent se regăsesc numeroase categorii, de la turiştii individuali până la cei care preferă tururile organizate sau deplasările pentru afaceri şi conferinţe.\n\nPrimele 5 cele mai căutate ţări sunt Italia 11,5%, Spania 8,6%, Franţa 8,2%, Germania 5,2% şi Marea Britanie 3,9%. Surprinzător. Turcia este preferată de numai 1,6%, iar Bulgaria şi Croaţia de către 1,2% dintre cetăţenii celor 27 de state membre ale Uniunii Europene. În topul preferinţelor turiştilor comunitari care îşi vor petrece vacanţa în altă ţară decât cea de origine se află Spania 6,6%, Italia 5,8%, Franţa 4,4%, SUA 3,5% şi Grecia 3,1%. Citiţi cu atenţie, domnilor travel-agenţi!\n___________________________________________________
\nPE ASTA O ŞTIAŢI ?
\nRomânii se bat pentru un Cod mondial de etică în turism. Asta a promovat o delegaţie a ministerului de resort la Mombasa (Kenya) unde s-au derulat lucrările celei de-a 90-a sesiuni a Consiliului Executiv al Organizaţiei Mondiale a Turismului. Noul Cod va avea un caracter voluntar şi complementar faţă de documentul similar existent. Lansarea propunerii a generat comentarii favorabile, mai ales că abordarea pragmatică va conduce la creşterea rolului OMT în cadrul industriei mondiale de turism. Pe agenda evenimentului s-au regăsit teme de interes precum dezvoltare a turismului pe plan mondial, dar şi perspectivele ce ţintesc anii 2030. Pentru anul 2011, preşedinţia Consiliului Executiv al OMT este deţinută de Italia, iar vicepreşedinţia de către Kenya şi România.

\n“HAI LA BĂI” PÂNĂ PE 15 SEPTEMBRIE\n\nPână la această data se va derula a doua ediţie a programului social balnear cu acest slogan-invitaţie. El conţine preţuri accesibile oferite de o serie de complexe din staţiunile climaterice – precizează liderii Asociaţiei Naţionale a Agenţiilor de Turism (ANAT) şi ai Organizaţiei Patronale din Turismul Balnear (OPTBR). În afară de valorificarea mai bună a capacităţilor de cazare şi tratament, programul doreşte să încurajeze familiile cu copii pentru a-şi petrece vacanţele în scopul refacerii şi întreţinerii sănătăţii. Ca urmare se acordă gratuitate la cazarea copiilor cu vârste de până la 12 ani, ce locuiesc în aceeaşi cameră cu părinţii. “Tariful pentru un pachet de 6 nopţi (pensiune completă, minim 5 zile de tratament cu 2 proceduri pe zi şi o consultaţie medicală) este de 575 de lei per persoană (hotel de 2 stele) respectiv de 690 de lei ( hotel de 3 stele). Tarifele includ şi comisionul agenţiilor de turism” - a declarat Nicu Rădulescu, preşedintele OPTBR.\n\n___________________________________________________\nPÂINEA ANTICA ROMANA A ÎNCEPUT SĂ SE COACĂ
\nRecent, la Constanţa a fost lansat produsul “Pâinea Antica Romana Labyrinthum”, o campanie proiectată de către Groove Hour în parteneriat cu Grupul de panificaţie Dobrogea. Printre partenerii media ce susţin campania se numără şi Traveller Magazin. Programul, pe care l-am descris într-un număr anterior, este realizat în favoarea restaurării, reabilitării şi punerii în valoare a Edificiului Roman cu Mozaic Tomis, ce aparţine Muzeului de Istorie Naţională şi Arheologie din Constanţa. După cum ne-a precizat Dragoş Paiu, reprezentantul de marketing al Groove Hour, conceptul este promovat deja în librăriile Cărtureşti din întreaga ţară iar spotul video rulează la fiecare început de film în reţeaua de cinematografe Cityplex. Alte amănunte puteţi afla la adresa www. labyrinthum.ro.\n___________________________________________________
\nCUMPĂNA S-A INSTALAT LA COTROCENI\n\nTrebuie să vă faceţi timp pentru că expoziţia este deschisă până pe 31 august. Ar fi păcat să rataţi întâlnirea cu lucrările lui Rudolf Schweitzer-Cumpăna, mai ales că evenimentul marchează împlinirea a 125 de ani de la naştere, aniversare inclusă şi calendarul UNESCO – ne precizează Mihai Ipate, directorul de PR al Muzeului. În Spaţiile Medievale vă veţi delecta cu 120 de lucrări ale artistului născut la Piteşti, pe 7 mai 1886, într-o familie de origine germană. Operele au fost oferite cu generozitate atât de membri Societăţii Colecţionarilor de Artă din România, dar şi de către muzeele partenere. Cu acest prilej a fost editat şi un catalog color, care poate fi achiziţionat, de la shop-ul muzeului. Sponsor principal al evenimentului este BRD Groupe Societe Generale, partenerul principal: Apa Nova, iar unul dintre partenerii media este Traveller Magazin.\n___________________________________________________
\nMDRT A BĂTUT PALMA CU IBM\n\nMinisterul de profil a finalizat contractul pentru realizarea Sistemului Informatic de Evidenţă a Turiştilor. Firma care va proiecta şi implementa acest produs este IBM, ce va asigura şi componentele hardware şi software necesare. Ulterior, unităţile de cazare clasificate de pe tot teritoriul României se vor putea înscrie în Sistem şi îl vor accesa zilnic, pentru a înregistra datele cu privire la evidenţa ocupării în propria unitate. Prin intermediul acestuia se va raporta zilnic, de către fiecare unitate de cazare, numărul de turişti înregistraţi în fiecare hotel. În acest fel, MDRT va avea la dispoziţie, pentru prima dată, informaţii reale şi actualizate din acest domeniu. \n\n ','Evenimente nr. 88-89(iulie-august 2011)','','inherit','open','open','','561-revision','','','2011-08-03 23:48:19','2011-08-03 21:48:19','',561,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/08/03/561-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(572,1,'2011-08-04 00:00:59','2011-08-03 22:00:59','CHRISTIAN TOUR PLEACĂ DUPĂ BUSINESS ÎN EUROPA\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Travel-Cristian-Tour008.jpg\" "\\"Travel")

Scopul principal al acestor Gale este, după cum afirmă amfitrionii, de a reuni periodic valori ori promotori de proiecte valororase.\r\n\r\nOrganizatorii au adus în prim plan lideri (proprietari ori manageri) ai unor agenţii, hoteluri, societăţi de asigurări, instituţii mass-media etc. Cea mai dinamică agenţie de incoming a fost desemnată Karpaten Turism, condusă de Gheorghe Mărginean;\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Premii-Bucurestilor-Adrian-Voican.jpg\" "\\"Premii")

Fiecare premiant a fost recompensat cu câte 3.000 de euro, echivalentul unui pachet de publicitate pe site-urile reţelei Besttourism.

Prin aceste birouri ne-am propus şi să promovăm atracţiile din ţara noastră. După 14 ani de cînd activăm pe piaţă am acumulat o experienţă care merită dezvoltată. Este doar o chestiune de timp deoarece căutăm parteneri serioşi în ţările respective.\n\nFirma Pegas Holidays este condusă de fratele meu Marius Pandel. Vom opera cu un sistem de rezervări britanic implementat de noi la începutul acestui an. O noutate absolută pentru cititorii dumneavoastră este că ne aflăm într-o fază avansată de a consolida, prin asociere cu alţi touroperatori internaţionali, un grup de incoming care să obţină la contractări preţuri extrem de avantajoase. Numele acestuia este “Memento Holidays” şi va avea o expunere internaţională” – ne-a precizat Cristian Pandel, directorul general al agenţiei Christian Tour.\n\nFirma pe care o conduce s-a impus în ultimii ani drept cel mai important operator de chartere din România. Estimările arată că în jur de 80.000 de turişti vor apela în acest an la serviciile companiei, cu 15.000 mai mulţi decât în 2010.\n\nM. CONSTANTINESCU\n....................................................................\nPIESĂ NETERMINATĂ PENTRU …INCOMING\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_576\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Gheorghe Fodoreanu\"][/caption]\n\nNu e niciun secret. Numărul agenţiilor care aduc turişti străini în România este în scădere. Drept urmare şi străinii care se îndreaptă spre ţara noastră s-au rărit vizibil în ultimele două decenii. Politica, lucru cert, nu se pupă decât declarativ, cu sprijinirea incoming-ului iar rezultatele se văd în statistici. La Conferinţa “Profesionişti pentru incoming”organizată la restaurantul Alhambra din Bucureşti (patronat de Marian Sîrbu), de către firma Media Travel Advisor, mai mulţi touroperatori au confirmat aceste tendinţe. O parte au încercat să formuleze şi soluţii de relansare dar procesul de e posibil numai dacă statul se va implica ca partener major prin politici coerente şi durabile.\n\nGheorghe Fodoreanu, preşedintele agenţiei Invitation România, a abordat tematica sezonului estival “care va cunoaşte o nouă scădere. Lumea e liberă să plece oriunde găseşte calitate iar la ora aceasta puţine hoteluri de pe Litoral au oferta orientată spre atragerea turiştilor. În plus ei nu sunt susţinuţi printr-o promovare constantă. Ministerul a desfiinţat birouri de turism tocmai în ţări care erau furnizoare de turişti şi pentru staţiunile noastre de la Marea Neagră. De exemplu din Belgia veneau în vremurile bune circa 10.000 de turişti prin AB Tour şi Maxitour. Acum ne mulţumim cu câteva sute”.\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_575\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"188\" caption=\"Romulus Craciun \"][/caption]\n\nRomulus Crăciun, care deţine o experienţă solidă în domeniu aviatic, director la firma Eximtur, a spus că oricâtă promovare se va face incomingul nu va creşte semnificativ dacă transportatorii aerieni români nu sunt motivaţi să se implice. “Trebuie început de undeva. Aeroporturile ar trebui să adere la acest proiect prin desfiinţarea unor taxe. Vindem România iar dacă imaginea ţării e una favorabilă atunci toţi vom avea de câştigat. Doar un exemplu: în perioada ’70-’76 aveam peste 20 de curse charter pe săptămână din RFG şi RDG, Polonia, Cehia, Franţa, Belgia, Ţările Scandinave. După ’90 am aşteptat minuni. Nu s-au întâmplat. Pentru a relansa incoming-ul e nevoie de susţinere naţională. Şi nu de politici de genul Meşterul Manole, practicate de toate guvernele de până acum”.\n\nLa rândul său Julian Andrei, directorul general al companiei Blue Line International, care lucrează cu ITS, unul dintre cei mai mari touroperatori mondiali, a încercat să răspundă la întrebarea “De ce nu mai vin străinii în România?”. “Nici eu nu ştiu cum reuşim să-i convingem să mai vină! Marea Neagră nu poate concura Marea Mediterană, nici ca staţiuni nici ca sezonalitate. Să ne fie clar. Arma secretă a Litoralului şi în general a ţării noastre trebuie să devină tratamentele balneare şi de întreţinere. Doresc să subliniez că hotelierii de pe litoral s-au bătut în ultimii ani numai pe turiştii interni. Mai puţin pretenţioşi decât străinii, exigenţi prin natura lucrurilor. Ei bine, acum culeg roadele. Nici programele sociale nu se mai bucură de succes. In ultimii trei ani turismul de pe litoral a regresat în trepte de la 10 până la 30%”. Referindu-se la promovare şi la sumele fabuloase derulate în viitorii ani – în total circa 73 de milioane de euro -, liderul Blue Line a conchis “Nimic nu merge dacă nu există o sincronizare cu mediul de afaceri privat!” Relevant.\n\nTotuşi, cum să atragem mai mulţi călători străini. Sorin Văduvoiu, director la Perfect Tour, este de părere că până va face statul ceva tot mediul privat trebuie să investească şi să rişte. “Am deschis birouri de turism în Republica Modova, SUA şi ne gândim şi la alte ţări. Ne promovăm ofertele, căutăm să fim cât mai atractivi. Ne aşteptăm să avem succes”. În mod sigur asemenea conferinţe tematice trebuie continuate. Ele au măcar rolul de a limpezi lucrurile şi, cine ştie, de a le pune în mişcare.\n\nC.

Romanian tourism in figures
\r\nIf we compare the first seven months of the year with the similar period of 2010 records show a slight revival of tourism in Romania. A report of the National Statistics Institute (INS) on accommodation shows a 14% increase in arrivals and a 9,9% increase in room occupancy. The arrivals in accommodation structures totalized a bit more than 3,7 millions (out of which 77,8% being Romanians and, similar to last year, 22,2% foreigners). Arrivals in hotels represent 76,9% of the total, which means 15,4% more than in 2010. The number of nights went up 9,9%, slightly passing 9.1 million. The number of foreign tourists went up 1,1%, reaching 4.259 million visitors. Most of them (94,3%) come from Europe as the figures show: Hungary (35,8%), Bulgaria (17,9%), Germany (8,6), Italy (8,1%), Poland 5,7% and Austria (4,2%).

Wine and cakes attack Constanţa
\r\nThe companies Domeniile Ostrov, Dobrogea Grup and Groove Hour launched a new campaign to support the restoration of the mosaic in Constanta. The two promoted products are Labyrinthum wine and the ecologic pastry Augusta, which follow the success idea of the initial brand The Antique Roman Bread Labyrinthum. „Every month Domeniile Ostrov and Dobrogea Grup, after selling these products, will send a fix amount of money in order to restore, protect and promote, the mosaic in Constanţa” – said Dragoş Paiu, marketing director of Groove Hour. The event was marked by the first modern visit of the Dacian and Roman soldiers at the Black Sea side city. United in the Terra Dacica Aeterna Association in Cluj they presented a thematic show. The soldiers wore the signs of XIII Gemina Legion, the most longevive legion in Roman Dacia, having its headquarters, 1900 years ago, in Apulum (today Alba Iulia, in Transylvania). The soldiers became like brothers, tasting a dry, full of aroma Labyrinhtum wine, and feasted with the ecologic pastry Augusta, a desert prepared after an ancient recipe. Launched by Groove Hour the project brigs in a partnership The National History and Archeology Museum in Constanţa and The County Council. Traveller Magazin is one of the media partners

Deţine cinci etaje, 121 de camere, 24 de suite, 9 saloane pentru recepţii şi coctailuri, dar şi o celebră galerie unde au fost armonizate cu succes cinci secole de artă de către familia Jeanne şi Paul Augier, proprietarii hotelului.

După două tentative nereuşite, derulate de către două companii private, MDRT şi RATB au lansat un parteneriat ce are ca subiect gestionarea autobuzelor turistice supraetajate. Ele efectuează deja curse speciale pe o rută ce conectează numeroase atracţii din Capitala României. Autobuzele sunt inscripţionate cu însemnele brandului naţional de turism. Linia turistică funcţionează zilnic între orele 10.00-22.00, pe traseul Piaţa Presei Libere, Muzeul Satului, Arcul de Triumf, Piaţa Victoriei, Calea Victoriei, Palatul Parlamentului, Piaţa Unirii, Universitate, Piaţa Romană, Piaţa Victoriei, Piaţa Charles de Gaulle, Şoseaua Kiseleff, Piaţa Presei Libere. Printre obiectivele turistice aflate de-a lungul traseului se află: Parcul Herăstrău, Muzeul Satului, Arcul de Triumf, Muzeul Antipa, Muzeul Ţăranului Român, Ateneul Român, Muzeul Naţional de Artă, Biserica Creţulescu, Muzeul Naţional de Istorie, Palatul Parlamentului, Patriarhia Română, Hanul lui Manuc, Curtea Veche, Muzeul Municipiului Bucureşti, Teatrul Naţional. Ministrul Elena Udrea a apreciat la lansare că proiectul va avea succes şi va contribui la „creşterea atractivităţii Capitalei noastre, iar Bucureştiul îşi va recâştiga locul pe care îl merită în rândul celor mai vizitate capitale europene”.\r\nTarifele de transport sunt de: 25 lei/bilet pentru adulţi şi 10 lei/bilet pentru copiii cu vârste între 7 şi 14 ani. Copiii sub 7 ani, însoţiţi de adulţi, vor beneficia de transport gratuit. Cardul de călătorie este valabil 24 de ore de la prima validare şi se procură din autobuzele turistice.\r\n\r\nCabrini are o reţetă de succes pentru România\r\nTurism balnear + rural\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Cabrini.jpg\" "\\"Cabrini\\"")
Preşedintele pe Europa al Organizaţiei Mondiale a Turismului (OMT), este de părere că România are mai multe atuuri turistice pe care ar trebui să le susţină printr-un efort de promovare constant. Luigi Cabrini a venit de mai multe ori în ţara noastră şi a avut ocazia să se familiarizeze cu potenţialul pe care-l deţinem. Conform declaraţiei sale turismul rural şi cel de spa ar trebui să fie două dintre priorităţile guvernului.\r\n\r\n“În urmă cu trei ani am organizat la Moeciu un Forum de specialitate. Împreună cu Francesco Frangiali, secretarul general al OMT dar şi cu specialiştii noştri care lucrează la strategia de dezvoltare sectorială, am putut observa că deţineţi un puternic potenţial natural şi mineral. Turismul rural este sigur unul dintre domeniile pe care vă puteţi baza. Aveţi natură neexploatată. Turismul rural se dezvoltă în întreaga lume. Este o idee forte să combinaţi turismul rural cu cel balnear, de spa, în special în regiunile în care se practică ambele forme. Asta pentru că zona balneo spa-ul cunoaşte o dezvoltare semnificativă în Europa şi în lume. În prezent, şi tendinţa va continua, din ce în ce mai mulţi turişti se îndreaptă nu către tratamentul medical, ci spre activităţile de prevenire, de întreţinere, de welness.\r\n\r\nUn alt trend turistic cu succes garantat îl reprezintă tururile de oraşe, city-break-urile. Oamenii se urcă în avion şi vizitează, timp de 2-3 zile, oraşe cu potenţial istoric şi turistic. Este o modă de durată pe care acum o susţin şi tarifele practicate în anumite perioade de către companiile aeriene şi mai ales de companiile low-cost.”\r\n\r\nÎn ultimii zece ani industria de welness a cunoscut o creştere foarte puternică. Specialiştii apreciază că sumele cheltuite pentru acest tip de turism vor depăşi pe cele alocate domeniului medical. Ei arată că la ora actuală concediile europenilor orientate spre menţinerea sănătăţii reprezintă 15% din totalul industriei turistice. Asociaţia Europeană a Staţiunilor Balneare (ESPA) a evaluat că potenţialul european depăşeşte 1.200 de centre de spa şi de sănătate apreciate în întreaga lume. Ponderea structurilor tip spa creşte anual cu 20%. Organizaţia atrage atenţia că segmentul de welness nu este un caz particular pentru câteva ţări europene ci el se dezvoltă în multe zone, cunoscând unul dintre cele mai dinamice ritmuri din industria turistică.\r\n\r\nTriunghi de agrement\r\n\r\nMangalia-Venus-Saturn se vor poziţiona distinct pe segmentul de turism balnear şi de agrement. Reformularea economică este susţinută prin noile investiţii finalizate în ultimul sezon estival în cadrul mai multor proiecte ce au beneficiat de finanţări europene. La Mangalia au fost orientaţi în consolidarea turismului balnear, de agrement şi infrastructură regională circa 4.446 milioane lei, fără TVA.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Agrement.jpg\" "\\"Sunset\\"")
\r\n\r\nÎn cadrul proiectului a fost amenajat şi ecologizat drumul de legătură dintre staţiunile Saturn şi Venus, au fost amenajate cinci bazine de ape mezotermale sulfuroase şi parcul de distracţii cu o suprafaţă de 1,3 hectare. Amenajarea acestora marchează un prim pas spre valorificarea potenţialului balnear al zonei care să impună, în perioada următoare, Saturn şi Venus ca staţiuni balneare reprezentative. Totodată, au fost făcute investiţii pentru îmbunătăţirea sistemului de iluminat public, ambiental etc.','EVENIMENTE NR.90 (SEPTEMBRIE 2011) ','','publish','open','open','','evenimente-nr-90-septembrie-2011','','','2011-10-05 14:44:58','2011-10-05 12:44:58','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=597',0,'post','',0),(598,1,'2011-10-05 14:42:08','2011-10-05 12:42:08','','City Tour1','','inherit','open','open','','city-tour1','','','2011-10-05 14:42:08','2011-10-05 12:42:08','',597,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/City-Tour1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(599,1,'2011-10-05 14:42:48','2011-10-05 12:42:48','','Octoberfest brasov 3','','inherit','open','open','','octoberfest-brasov-3','','','2011-10-05 14:42:48','2011-10-05 12:42:48','',597,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Octoberfest-brasov-3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(600,1,'2011-10-05 14:43:25','2011-10-05 12:43:25','','Nisa 001','','inherit','open','open','','nisa-001','','','2011-10-05 14:43:25','2011-10-05 12:43:25','',597,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Nisa-001.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(601,1,'2011-10-05 14:44:04','2011-10-05 12:44:04','','Cabrini','','inherit','open','open','','cabrini','','','2011-10-05 14:44:04','2011-10-05 12:44:04','',597,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Cabrini.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(602,1,'2011-10-05 14:44:37','2011-10-05 12:44:37','Sunsets are celebrated throughout Florida\'s Beach and a sailboat cruise is the perfect way to say goodbye to another day in paradise.

Numai turiştii veniţi din ţara noastră au consumat 10.000 de nopţi de cazare, dar o mare parte preferă să locuiască la prieteni şi familie. Lucru firesc, în condiţiile în care pe Coasta de Azur locuiesc circa 2.000 de rezidenţi români.\n\nOrice român este încântat să afle, iar dacă bugetul îi permite, să locuiască la Negresco, unul dintre complexele de referinţă ale Nisei. A fost construit în 1913 pe celebra Promenade des Anglais şi este legat numele lui Henri Negresco (născut în 1868, la Bucureşti). Deţine cinci etaje, 121 de camere, 24 de suite, 9 saloane pentru recepţii şi coctailuri, dar şi o celebră galerie unde au fost armonizate cu succes cinci secole de artă de către familia Jeanne şi Paul Augier, proprietarii hotelului. Acesta a trecut printr-un program de modernizare şi restaurare fiind pregătit pentru apropiatul centenar.\n\nMARA ANTON\n\nCapitala are autobuze turistice\n\nDupă două tentative nereuşite, derulate de către două companii private, MDRT şi RATB au lansat un parteneriat ce are ca subiect gestionarea autobuzelor turistice supraetajate. Ele efectuează deja curse speciale pe o rută ce conectează numeroase atracţii din Capitala României. Autobuzele sunt inscripţionate cu însemnele brandului naţional de turism. Linia turistică funcţionează zilnic între orele 10.00-22.00, pe traseul Piaţa Presei Libere, Muzeul Satului, Arcul de Triumf, Piaţa Victoriei, Calea Victoriei, Palatul Parlamentului, Piaţa Unirii, Universitate, Piaţa Romană, Piaţa Victoriei, Piaţa Charles de Gaulle, Şoseaua Kiseleff, Piaţa Presei Libere. Printre obiectivele turistice aflate de-a lungul traseului se află: Parcul Herăstrău, Muzeul Satului, Arcul de Triumf, Muzeul Antipa, Muzeul Ţăranului Român, Ateneul Român, Muzeul Naţional de Artă, Biserica Creţulescu, Muzeul Naţional de Istorie, Palatul Parlamentului, Patriarhia Română, Hanul lui Manuc, Curtea Veche, Muzeul Municipiului Bucureşti, Teatrul Naţional. Ministrul Elena Udrea a apreciat la lansare că proiectul va avea succes şi va contribui la „creşterea atractivităţii Capitalei noastre, iar Bucureştiul îşi va recâştiga locul pe care îl merită în rândul celor mai vizitate capitale europene”.\nTarifele de transport sunt de: 25 lei/bilet pentru adulţi şi 10 lei/bilet pentru copiii cu vârste între 7 şi 14 ani. Copiii sub 7 ani, însoţiţi de adulţi, vor beneficia de transport gratuit. Cardul de călătorie este valabil 24 de ore de la prima validare şi se procură din autobuzele turistice.\n\nCabrini are o reţetă de succes pentru România\nTurism balnear + rural\n\nPreşedintele pe Europa al Organizaţiei Mondiale a Turismului (OMT), este de părere că România are mai multe atuuri turistice pe care ar trebui să le susţină printr-un efort de promovare constant. Luigi Cabrini a venit de mai multe ori în ţara noastră şi a avut ocazia să se familiarizeze cu potenţialul pe care-l deţinem. Conform declaraţiei sale turismul rural şi cel de spa ar trebui să fie două dintre priorităţile guvernului.\n\n“În urmă cu trei ani am organizat la Moeciu un Forum de specialitate. Împreună cu Francesco Frangiali, secretarul general al OMT dar şi cu specialiştii noştri care lucrează la strategia de dezvoltare sectorială, am putut observa că deţineţi un puternic potenţial natural şi mineral. Turismul rural este sigur unul dintre domeniile pe care vă puteţi baza. Aveţi natură neexploatată. Turismul rural se dezvoltă în întreaga lume. Este o idee forte să combinaţi turismul rural cu cel balnear, de spa, în special în regiunile în care se practică ambele forme. Asta pentru că zona balneo spa-ul cunoaşte o dezvoltare semnificativă în Europa şi în lume. În prezent, şi tendinţa va continua, din ce în ce mai mulţi turişti se îndreaptă nu către tratamentul medical, ci spre activităţile de prevenire, de întreţinere, de welness.\n\nUn alt trend turistic cu succes garantat îl reprezintă tururile de oraşe, city-break-urile. Oamenii se urcă în avion şi vizitează, timp de 2-3 zile, oraşe cu potenţial istoric şi turistic. Este o modă de durată pe care acum o susţin şi tarifele practicate în anumite perioade de către companiile aeriene şi mai ales de companiile low-cost.”\n\nÎn ultimii zece ani industria de welness a cunoscut o creştere foarte puternică. Specialiştii apreciază că sumele cheltuite pentru acest tip de turism vor depăşi pe cele alocate domeniului medical. Ei arată că la ora actuală concediile europenilor orientate spre menţinerea sănătăţii reprezintă 15% din totalul industriei turistice. Asociaţia Europeană a Staţiunilor Balneare (ESPA) a evaluat că potenţialul european depăşeşte 1.200 de centre de spa şi de sănătate apreciate în întreaga lume. Ponderea structurilor tip spa creşte anual cu 20%. Organizaţia atrage atenţia că segmentul de welness nu este un caz particular pentru câteva ţări europene ci el se dezvoltă în multe zone, cunoscând unul dintre cele mai dinamice ritmuri din industria turistică.\n\nTriunghi de agrement\n\nMangalia-Venus-Saturn se vor poziţiona distinct pe segmentul de turism balnear şi de agrement. Reformularea economică este susţinută prin noile investiţii finalizate în ultimul sezon estival în cadrul mai multor proiecte ce au beneficiat de finanţări europene. La Mangalia au fost orientaţi în consolidarea turismului balnear, de agrement şi infrastructură regională circa 4.446 milioane lei, fără TVA.\n\nÎn cadrul proiectului a fost amenajat şi ecologizat drumul de legătură dintre staţiunile Saturn şi Venus, au fost amenajate cinci bazine de ape mezotermale sulfuroase şi parcul de distracţii cu o suprafaţă de 1,3 hectare. Amenajarea acestora marchează un prim pas spre valorificarea potenţialului balnear al zonei care să impună, în perioada următoare, Saturn şi Venus ca staţiuni balneare reprezentative. Totodată, au fost făcute investiţii pentru îmbunătăţirea sistemului de iluminat public, ambiental etc.','EVENIMENTE NR.90 (SEPTEMBRIE 2011) ','','inherit','open','open','','597-autosave','','','2011-10-05 14:46:04','2011-10-05 12:46:04','',597,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/10/05/597-autosave/',0,'revision','',0),(606,1,'2011-10-05 14:48:58','2011-10-05 12:48:58','http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Agrement1.jpg','Agrement1.jpg','','inherit','open','open','','agrement1-jpg','','','2011-10-05 14:48:58','2011-10-05 12:48:58','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Agrement1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(607,1,'2011-10-05 14:58:32','2011-10-05 12:58:32','Cel mai elegant hotel design din Transilvania\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Director-H-Plaza-Dacian-Vlas.jpg\" "\\"Director")
Clădirea unui hotel de două stele, Transilvania, al cărui ultim proprietar a fost compania Unita Turism a făcut obiectul unei tranzacţii din care a ieşit câştigătoare familia omului de afaceri Florin Vlas. La momentul în care a anunţat că pe structura acesteia va fi reconstruit un hotel de 5 stele chiar şi specialiştii în hotelărie au avut reţineri în a se pronunţa. Dar realitatea recentă a dovedit că investitorul, susţinut logistic de o companie belgiană de design, a reuşit un proiect unic.

Filosofia noastră a fost încă de la început că în viaţă trebuie să ştii când să câştigi, mai puţin sau chiar deloc. Noi am gândit hotelăria ca pe o investiţie pe termen lung.

El se alătură hotelului Plaza Business & Spa (4 stele), amplasat la una din intrările în oraş, respectiv hotelului Ciao (3 stele, un rebranding al hotelului Voiajor). Plaza deţine 17 camere de 5 stele, 4 apartamente şi un luxury penthouse suite. Fiecare beneficiază de decorări, culori şi un design unice.\r\n\r\nDupă cum ne-a declarat directorul general Dacian Vlas “deşi s-a deschis relativ recent hotelul nostru este foarte căutat de străini. Ei au apreciat nu numai serviciile oferite, ci şi facilităţile - Plaza Society Café, restaurantul, Centrul de conferinţe cu o capacitate totală de 220 de persoane şi Centru Spa, fiind o parte dintre acestea. Filosofia noastră a fost încă de la început că în viaţă trebuie să ştii când să câştigi, mai puţin sau chiar deloc. Noi am gândit hotelăria ca pe o investiţie pe termen lung. Şi acest principiu se regăseşte şi în operarea hotelului Plaza.

\"Turismul în Soweto a înregistrat o dezvoltare fără precedent\", a declarat preşedintele Asociaţiei regionale de turism Dumisani Ntshangase, subliniind că, în prezent, oraşul, prin istoria sa unică, atrage zilnic câteva mii de turişti provenind din toate colţurile lumii, inclusiv sud-africani albi, care nu ar fi îndrăznit niciodată să calce în zonă, în trecut. Una dintre marile atracţii culturale ale oraşului este, fără îndoială, Muzeul “Familiei Mandela”.\r\n\r\nVizitatorii se pot familiariza aici cu cele mai importante momente istorice care au marcat nu numai dezvoltarea oraşului ci şi a Africii de Sud. În 1976, revoltele declanşate în Soweto împotriva fostului regim de segregare rasială a atras atenţia întregii lumi asupra Africii de Sud. În 1994 la primele alegeri democrate, Nelson Mandela a ocupat funcţia supremă în stat. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Africa-4.jpg\" "\\"Africa")
\r\n\r\nAcesta a fost primul om de culoare care a devenit preşedintele Africii de Sud. El a început şi susţinut ulterior, un amplu proces de reforme politice şi economice ce a permis deschiderea socială a unor regiuni şi comunităţi, printre care şi locul său preferat de viaţă – Soweto. În interiorul muzeului, a cărui clădire face parte din Soweto Heritage Trust, se găseşte o colecţie de lucrări de doctorat dedicate lui Mandela, obiecte de îmbrăcăminte din perioada detenţiei, dar şi o centură de box ce a aparţinut sportivului Sugar Ray Leonard, picturi şi fotografii cu familia Mandela.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Africa-3.jpg\" "\\"Africa")
Anul trecut oraşul a cunoscut un boom turistic, datorat găzduirii fazei finale a meciurilor Campionatului Mondial de Fotbal. Alături de hoteluri şi alte locuri de recreere au apărut sedii de bănci, noi şi moderne magazine şi super-marketuri, care atrag consumatorii de culoare din clasa medie. \"Investitorii nu vin în Soweto pentru că aşa este corect ci pentru că fac afaceri bune aici\", a declarat proprietarul unei companii de travel.

HEMINGWAY, agentul turistic al HAVANEI
\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/cuba-2.jpg\" "\\"cuba")
Câteva “mărci” durabile fac din Cuba un loc dorit în fiecare an de circa 2,5 milioane de străini. Staţiunile de vacanţă de la malul oceanului, ţigările de foi, celebrul rom, dansurile latine, mai ales salsa, figura lui Fidel Castro şi, fireşte, a scriitorului de premiu Nobel, Ernest Hemingway.\r\n\r\nTendinţa este în creştere şi a fost generată şi de investiţiile făcute în cadrul unor societăţi mixte de turism (ce au ca acţionari armata şi afacerişti atraşi de miza riscului). Pragul de 2 milioane de vizitatori a fost depăşit în 2005, şi el a urcat treptat şi constant în ultimii cinci ani. Cum arată azi oferta hotelieră a Cubei? Investiţiile din ultimul deceniu au crescut capacitatea de cazare la peste 46.000 de camere, grupate în peste 310 hoteluri. Complexele de 5 stele au o pondere de circa 25 %, cele de 4 stele – circa 40%, iar de 3 stele – peste 20%.\r\n\r\nAnual, Cuba încasează din turism peste 2 miliarde de dolari, aproximativ 75% din Produsului Intern Brut. Şi românii sunt atraşi de această destinaţie, numărul lor ajungând la circa 2.000.\r\n\r\nPentru ce ai merge în Cuba? Ca să vezi “Parisul din Antile”, cum a fost denumită în vremurile de strălucire capitala Cubei. Havana a fost înfiinţat de spanioli în anul 1519. Majoritatea atracţiilor sunt concentrate aici. Centrul colonial al oraşului – Habana Vieja - face parte din patrimoniul universal UNESCO din 1982. Poţi alege ca punct de plecare Plaza de Armas, cea mai veche piaţă din Havana. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/cuba-4.jpg\" "\\"cuba")
\r\n\r\nDe aici te poţi îndrepta spre Palatul guvernatorilor ce datează din secolul al XVIII-lea. Apoi merită să vizitezi Hotel Santa Isabel (fosta Casa del Conde de Santovenia). În 1872 palatul a devenit primul hotel al oraşului. Pentru a te răcori poţi intra după ce ai ajuns la Plaza de la Catedral, la Bodega del Medio, loc unde poposeau din când în când la un pahar cu mojitos Errol Flynn ori Ernest Hemingway.\r\n\r\nDacă ai noroc poţi savura “Cina sub cerul înstelat”, un spectacol folcloric care se ţine o dată pe lună la lumina romantică a felinarelor din Plaza de la Catedral ori în Plaza de San Francisco. Alte “picanterii” turistice: Casa del Orfebreria, Deposito del Automovil, unde sunt expuse automobile de epocă, Casa del Conde de la Mortera (găzduieşte Muzeul Romului), fireşte, Muzeul tutunului, aflat lângă Casa del Tabaco, unde se află expuse obiecte legate de istoria preparării ţigărilor de foi.

Străzile Havanei te impresionează prin “straturi” istorice de viaţă suprapuse. Merită să te opreşti şi la Hotel Nacional (construit în 1930 în stil neorenascentist), locul unde celebrul consiliu mafiot (alcătuit din Frank Costello, Vito Genovese, Santo Trafficante jr., Moe Dalitz şi Meyer Lansky, numele adevărat al lui Fulgencio Batista, viitor preşedinte al Cubei), l-a ales ca lider al mafiei americane pe Lucy Luciano şi a decis eliminarea lui Bugsy Siegel, datorită eşecului complexului Flamingo din Las Vegas.

Casa care este vizitată azi a fost cumpărată în 1939. Scriitorul a iubit foarte mult Havana, ţigările de foi şi lichiorul cubanez. Considera oraşul atât de frumos, încât credea că doar Veneţia sau Parisul s-ar afla înaintea lui. Hemingway a fost unul dintre apropiaţii lui Fidel Castro. Legendele create pentru turişti arată că el a lăsat casa statului cubanez. \"E linişte. Havana mă ajută să mă odihnesc\", scria unui prieten, după ce suferise două accidente de aviaţie. Acesta se mira că scriitorul, care a câştigat Premiile Nobel pentru Literatură (în 1954) şi Pulitzer (în 1953), se mulţumeşte să locuiască acolo, într-o casă modestă.

\r\nTAJ HOTELS – RAIUL INDIAN PE PĂMÂNT
\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/taj-mahal-hotels-1.jpg\" "\\"taj")
Poate aţi vizitat Taj Mahalul, unul dintre monumentele minune ale lumii din toate timpurile. Milioane de vizitatori au făcut din acest palat legendar una dintre cele mai cunoscute imagini de promovare a turismului indian. Toţi ştim că o destinaţie de vacanţă este aleasă pentru povestea sa culturală, pentru obiectivele turistice faimoase dar, din ce în ce mai des, şi pentru locaţiile inedite, originale, oferite de hoteluri.\r\n\r\nAveţi, din copilărie, fantezia de a dormi într-un palat? Vreţi o insulă care să vă aparţină timp de o săptămână? India poate fi ţara spre care să vă îndreptaţi cu gândul de a încerca, după ce aţi vizitat Taj Mahalul şi alte zeci de monumente unice, să vă răsfăţaţi în câteva dintre proprietăţile grupul hotelier Taj, apreciat a fi cea mai luxoasă marcă a ospitalităţii tradiţionale indiene. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/taj-mahal-hotels-4.jpg\" "\\"taj")
\r\n\r\nTaj Hotels Resorts and Palaces reprezintă un concept care a apărut în 1903, atunci când industriaşul Jamsetji N. Tata a inaugurat hotelul Taj Mahal Palace din Mumbai (Bombay). Locaţia s-a transformat într-un fel de a doua curte princiară indiană. De-a lungul timpului i-au călcat pragul toţi magnaţii clipei, de la Rockefeller până la Onassis. În momentul de faţă grupul hotelier este unul dintre cele mai mari din Asia. El deţine 93 hoteluri în India şi în destinaţii precum: insulele Maldive, Mauritius, Malaezia, Australia, Bhutan, Sri Lanka, Africa de Sud, Zambia, Emiratele Arabe Unite dar şi Statele Unite ori Marea Britanie. Din portofoliul de locaţii 59 se găsesc în India.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/taj-mahal-hotels.jpg\" "\\"taj-mahal-hotels.jpg\\"")
Dar Taj Hotels surprinde prin diversitatea spaţiilor de cazare. Alături de hotelurile clasice, sub aspectul arhitecturii şi confortului, se află cele amenajate în palate de patrimoniu, 7 la număr, dar şi cele amplasate pe 7 insule private. Călătorii care au locuit într-unul dintre ele, sau pur şi simplu le-au vizitat, susţin că îţi poţi imagina fără să faci prea mult efort că aşa ar putea arăta raiul pe pământ.\r\nÎn contextul creşterii numărului de vizitatori internaţionali grupul Taj şi-a anunţat intenţia de a se extinde pe piaţa locală, cu mai multe branduri, atât de lux cât şi pentru consumatorii cu bugete medii. “Este posibil să mizăm pe mai multe branduri. Este o tendinţă a pieţei hoteliere internaţionale” - spune Ajoy K. Misra, vicepreşedinte de vânzări şi marketing al Indian Hotels Company Limited (IHCL) - promotorii lanţului.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/taj-mahal-TATA.jpg\" "\\"taj")
Restructurarea grupului indian a început în 2008, la câţiva ani după aniversarea centenarului pentru hotelul fanion Taj Mahal Palace. În prezent Taj Hotels Resorts and Palaces operează cu patru branduri: Taj Luxury, Vivanta by Taj (categoria premium), Gateway Hotels (poziţionat pentru consumatori cu venit mediu) şi Ginger Hotels (segmentul economic). Taj Hotels Resorts and Palaces face parte din concernul internaţional Tata Group.

În 1976, revoltele declanşate în Soweto împotriva fostului regim de segregare rasială a atras atenţia întregii lumi asupra Africii de Sud.

HEMINGWAY, agentul turistic al HAVANEI
\nCâteva “mărci” durabile fac din Cuba un loc dorit în fiecare an de circa 2,5 milioane de străini. Staţiunile de vacanţă de la malul oceanului, ţigările de foi, celebrul rom, dansurile latine, mai ales salsa, figura lui Fidel Castro şi, fireşte, a scriitorului de premiu Nobel, Ernest Hemingway.\n\nTendinţa este în creştere şi a fost generată şi de investiţiile făcute în cadrul unor societăţi mixte de turism (ce au ca acţionari armata şi afacerişti atraşi de miza riscului). Pragul de 2 milioane de vizitatori a fost depăşit în 2005, şi el a urcat treptat şi constant în ultimii cinci ani. Cum arată azi oferta hotelieră a Cubei? Investiţiile din ultimul deceniu au crescut capacitatea de cazare la peste 46.000 de camere, grupate în peste 310 hoteluri. Complexele de 5 stele au o pondere de circa 25 %, cele de 4 stele – circa 40%, iar de 3 stele – peste 20%.\n\nAnual, Cuba încasează din turism peste 2 miliarde de dolari, aproximativ 75% din Produsului Intern Brut. Şi românii sunt atraşi de această destinaţie, numărul lor ajungând la circa 2.000.\n\nPentru ce ai merge în Cuba? Ca să vezi “Parisul din Antile”, cum a fost denumită în vremurile de strălucire capitala Cubei. Havana a fost înfiinţat de spanioli în anul 1519. Majoritatea atracţiilor sunt concentrate aici. Centrul colonial al oraşului – Habana Vieja - face parte din patrimoniul universal UNESCO din 1982. Poţi alege ca punct de plecare Plaza de Armas, cea mai veche piaţă din Havana. \n\nDe aici te poţi îndrepta spre Palatul guvernatorilor ce datează din secolul al XVIII-lea. Apoi merită să vizitezi Hotel Santa Isabel (fosta Casa del Conde de Santovenia). În 1872 palatul a devenit primul hotel al oraşului. Pentru a te răcori poţi intra după ce ai ajuns la Plaza de la Catedral, la Bodega del Medio, loc unde poposeau din când în când la un pahar cu mojitos Errol Flynn ori Ernest Hemingway.\n\nDacă ai noroc poţi savura “Cina sub cerul înstelat”, un spectacol folcloric care se ţine o dată pe lună la lumina romantică a felinarelor din Plaza de la Catedral ori în Plaza de San Francisco. Alte “picanterii” turistice: Casa del Orfebreria, Deposito del Automovil, unde sunt expuse automobile de epocă, Casa del Conde de la Mortera (găzduieşte Muzeul Romului), fireşte, Muzeul tutunului, aflat lângă Casa del Tabaco, unde se află expuse obiecte legate de istoria preparării ţigărilor de foi. Cohiba, Montecristo, Romeo y Julieta vă spune ceva?
Străzile Havanei te impresionează prin “straturi” istorice de viaţă suprapuse. Merită să te opreşti şi la Hotel Nacional (construit în 1930 în stil neorenascentist), locul unde celebrul consiliu mafiot (alcătuit din Frank Costello, Vito Genovese, Santo Trafficante jr., Moe Dalitz şi Meyer Lansky, numele adevărat al lui Fulgencio Batista, viitor preşedinte al Cubei), l-a ales ca lider al mafiei americane pe Lucy Luciano şi a decis eliminarea lui Bugsy Siegel, datorită eşecului complexului Flamingo din Las Vegas.

Considera oraşul atât de frumos, încât credea că doar Veneţia sau Parisul s-ar afla înaintea lui. Hemingway a fost unul dintre apropiaţii lui Fidel Castro. Legendele create pentru turişti arată că el a lăsat casa statului cubanez. \"E linişte. Havana mă ajută să mă odihnesc\", scria unui prieten, după ce suferise două accidente de aviaţie. Acesta se mira că scriitorul, care a câştigat Premiile Nobel pentru Literatură (în 1954) şi Pulitzer (în 1953), se mulţumeşte să locuiască acolo, într-o casă modestă.\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU

TAJ HOTELS – RAIUL INDIAN PE PĂMÂNT
\nPoate aţi vizitat Taj Mahalul, unul dintre monumentele minune ale lumii din toate timpurile. Milioane de vizitatori au făcut din acest palat legendar una dintre cele mai cunoscute imagini de promovare a turismului indian. Toţi ştim că o destinaţie de vacanţă este aleasă pentru povestea sa culturală, pentru obiectivele turistice faimoase dar, din ce în ce mai des, şi pentru locaţiile inedite, originale, oferite de hoteluri.
\n\nTaj Hotels Resorts and Palaces reprezintă un concept care a apărut în 1903, atunci când industriaşul Jamsetji N. Tata a inaugurat hotelul Taj Mahal Palace din Mumbai (Bombay). Locaţia s-a transformat într-un fel de a doua curte princiară indiană. De-a lungul timpului i-au călcat pragul toţi magnaţii clipei, de la Rockefeller până la Onassis. În momentul de faţă grupul hotelier este unul dintre cele mai mari din Asia. El deţine 93 hoteluri în India şi în destinaţii precum: insulele Maldive, Mauritius, Malaezia, Australia, Bhutan, Sri Lanka, Africa de Sud, Zambia, Emiratele Arabe Unite dar şi Statele Unite ori Marea Britanie. Din portofoliul de locaţii 59 se găsesc în India.\n\nDar Taj Hotels surprinde prin diversitatea spaţiilor de cazare. Alături de hotelurile clasice, sub aspectul arhitecturii şi confortului, se află cele amenajate în palate de patrimoniu, 7 la număr, dar şi cele amplasate pe 7 insule private. Călătorii care au locuit într-unul dintre ele, sau pur şi simplu le-au vizitat, susţin că îţi poţi imagina fără să faci prea mult efort că aşa ar putea arăta raiul pe pământ.\nÎn contextul creşterii numărului de vizitatori internaţionali grupul Taj şi-a anunţat intenţia de a se extinde pe piaţa locală, cu mai multe branduri, atât de lux cât şi pentru consumatorii cu bugete medii. “Este posibil să mizăm pe mai multe branduri. Este o tendinţă a pieţei hoteliere internaţionale” - spune Ajoy K. Misra, vicepreşedinte de vânzări şi marketing al Indian Hotels Company Limited (IHCL) - promotorii lanţului.\n\nRestructurarea grupului indian a început în 2008, la câţiva ani după aniversarea centenarului pentru hotelul fanion Taj Mahal Palace. În prezent Taj Hotels Resorts and Palaces operează cu patru branduri: Taj Luxury, Vivanta by Taj (categoria premium), Gateway Hotels (poziţionat pentru consumatori cu venit mediu) şi Ginger Hotels (segmentul economic). Taj Hotels Resorts and Palaces face parte din concernul internaţional Tata Group.\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU

Ei au deschis poarta spre trei zile pline de vâslit, plimbări cu canotca, seri cu concerte şi spectacole speciale (trupelor Toulouse Lautrec şi Travka, li s-au alăturat ulterior Radu Captari, Christian Becker & Avenue Band), dezbateri despre viitorul zonei, duplex video Tulcea – Viena, dar şi un târg al proiectelor de dezvoltare cu tema „Antreprenoriatul rural în Delta Dunării: oportunităţi şi ameninţări”.\r\nMusai să mai adăugăm - Festivalul Rowmania a prilejuit reluarea, după 2 ani, a competiţiei viteză (a cincea ediţie), recompensată cu trofeul Ivan Patzaichin şi că la sosirea participanţilor la maratonul din Tour International Danube organizatorii au numărat peste 100 de bărci care au tras în portul Tulcea, după un voiaj de două luni.

Reunite în a doua ediţie - din iulie până la finele lui august - Râşnov, Braşov, Bran, Făgăraş au format o axă pe care iubitorii de istorie şi legendă au urmat-o cu devotament. Ce i-a chemat? Poveştile, ideea de cavalerism, întrecerile făcute ca la carte, după imagini descrise în cărţi dar fixate prin filme. Toate se străduiesc să renască în inimile noastre ideea de onoare, cinste şi vitejie.
Aşa că nu e de mirare că toate întâlnirile puse la cale de Asociaţia pentru Promovare şi Dezvoltarea Turismului din judeţul Braşov au atras vreo 250.000 pasionaţi. Impresionant nu? Şi nu e de mirare nici când numai la luptele cavalerilor nu a fost loc să arunci un ac. Cum să nu te fascineze, ca adult ori copil, luptele ecvestre sau pedestre între soldaţi, unii dintre ei încinşi de pasiunea de a câştiga năframa celei mai frumoase prinţese sau regine.

De altfel fundaţia a contribuit decisiv la organizarea ediţiilor Transilvania Fest. Au mai fost acordate şi 2 menţiuni speciale în valoare de câte 1.000 de euro fiecare.\r\nŢărani tradiţionali şi ecologici
\r\nAl doilea obiectiv al Transilvania Fest l-a reprezentat festivalul desfăşurat pe Câmpia Libertăţii. El a avut menirea de a susţine promovarea tradiţiilor şi obiceiurilor din Transilvania. Organizatorii ne-a subliniat câteva idei importante: „Până acum am fost în Turda, la Cluj, în Biertan în judeţul Sibiu. Acum am ajuns în judeţul Alba. Suntem bucuroşi că producătorii noştri, mai noi sau mai vechi, sunt din toată Transilvania şi ne urmează. Am avut 89 de standuri, producători şi mesteşugari.
\r\nMultă varietate. Păcat că vremea nu ne-a ajutat mai mult. Am avut şi brânză şi vin şi miere. Am avut şi program la scenă, concerte şi spectacole folclorice.

Am mai aminti şi de vinurile de Jidvei, unul dintre partenerii care au dat savoare preparatelor pregătite pe scenele Festivalului.
\r\nHai la... Şcoala şi la Oxford
\r\nNu întâmplător alte ateliere au fost ţinute pentru tineri şi profesori. Pentru că Blajul este recunoscut ca oraşul şcolilor. Întradevăr, în anul 1754 la Blaj şi-au deschis porţile Şcoala de obşte, Şcoala de latinie şi Şcoala de preoţie datorită episcopului greco-catolic Ion-Inocenţiu Micu-Klein. Aceste instituţii au fost primele şcoli sistematice superioare din spaţiul românesc în care s-a predat în limba română şi în care, pe lângă scris, citit şi studii teologice, se învăţau limbile străine şi ştiinţele.
\r\nPrin ce se distinge această manifestare? Oana Ioniţă, cea care s-a ocupat cu PR şi Comunicare precizează: „Nu este un simplu festival, este un proiect de dezvoltare comunitară, e doar vârful aisbergului acest festival de 3 zile. Schimbând comunităţile din Transilvania în fiecare an, încercăm de fapt să punem un accent pe tradiţiile şi obiceiurile din zona respectivă. De peste 4 ani avem un program cu Universitatea Oxford Brookes. Ei au un departament de management ospitalier şi a petrecerii timpului liber.
\r\nAmintesc aici de Annabel Charlotte Gunner, Frances Reilly şi Harriet Kinsbrook care ne-au sprijit foarte mult. Un alt susţinător al proiectelor de gastronomie, partizan al mişcării Slow Food, este Paul Bloomfield, consultant gastronomic, chef şi un îndrăgostit de România. Studenţii vin în locaţie cu 6-8 săptămâni înainte şi lucrează pe proiecte specifice, de la dezvoltare comunitară până la harta gastronomică a zonei sau site-uri de dezvoltare turistică exact pe locaţia respectivă. De asemenea rămânem în legătură cu producătorii şi meşteşugarii din locaţia unde s-a desfăşurat festivalul. O contribuţie specială au avut şi cei peste 40 de voluntari, români, britanici şi americani”.

Dacii şi romanii au atacat Constanţa cu... vin şi prăjituri
\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Daci-1.jpg\" "\\"Daci")
Firmele Domeniile Ostrov, Dobrogea Grup Constanţa şi Groove Hour au lansat o nouă campanie care aduce în prim plan două produse originale - “Vinul Labyrinthum” şi “Prăjitura ecologică Augusta”. Ele se alătură “Pâinii Antice Romane Labyrinthum”, şi vor contribui la susţinerea proiectul de restaurare, reabilitare şi punere în valoare a Edificiului Roman cu Mozaic Tomis, proiect iniţiat de Groove Hour în parteneriat cu Muzeul de Istorie Naţională şi Arheologie şi Consiliul Judeţean Constanţa.\r\nEvenimentul de lansare a fost marcat de o prezenţă inedită. Pentru prima dată soldaţii daci şi romani, ce formează Asociaţia Terra Dacica Aeterna din Cluj, au venit să prezinte un spectacol istoric la Constanţa. Echipamentul militar roman al soldaţilor poartă însemnele Legiunii XIII Gemina, legiunea cea mai longevivă pe teritoriul Daciei romane, care a staţionat în decursul secolelor II şi III d. Chr. la Apulum (Alba Iulia de azi).![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Daci-2.jpg\" "\\"Daci")
\r\n\r\nCu această ocazie istoricile rivalităţi dintre daci şi romani s-au manifestat din plin dar paşnic încântânt publicul prezent. Ostilităţile s-au încheiat în faţa sticlelor de “Vin Labyrinhtum”, un sec aromat, cu o savoare remarcabilă, catifelat, amplu ºi robust, respectiv al “Prăjiturii ecologice Augusta”, un desert BIO. El este preparat din făină integrală de grâu Spelta ecologic, după o reţetă veche de peste 2000 de ani, care are în compoziţie miere, unt, oua, stafide şi scorţişoară, toate certificate ecologic.\r\n„Din valoarea obţinută prin comercializarea produselor, Domeniile Ostrov şi Dobrogea Grup vor direcţiona lunar o sumă fixă ce va contribui la restaurarea, şi reabilitarea Mozaicului din Constanţa. Produsele Labyrinthum susţin proiectul de refacere a Edificiului Roman cu Mozaic din Constanţa în cadrul Centrului Cultural Labyrinthum - \"Labyrinthum\" - marcă înregistrată la OSIM România.

Simţeam nevoia unui „traseu de biciclete“ prin Deltă, mai bine zis a unei „biciclete a apelor“, şi aşa s-a născut ideea unei bărci care să îmbine ce e mai bun de la lotcă (barca noastră tradiţională), cu viteza şi flexibilitatea canoei.

Schimbând comunităţile din Transilvania în fiecare an, încercăm de fapt să punem un accent pe tradiţiile şi obiceiurile din zona respectivă. De peste 4 ani avem un program cu Universitatea Oxford Brookes. Ei au un departament de management ospitalier şi a petrecerii timpului liber.
\nAmintesc aici de Annabel Charlotte Gunner, Frances Reilly şi Harriet Kinsbrook care ne-au sprijit foarte mult. Un alt susţinător al proiectelor de gastronomie, partizan al mişcării Slow Food, este Paul Bloomfield, consultant gastronomic, chef şi un îndrăgostit de România. Studenţii vin în locaţie cu 6-8 săptămâni înainte şi lucrează pe proiecte specifice, de la dezvoltare comunitară până la harta gastronomică a zonei sau site-uri de dezvoltare turistică exact pe locaţia respectivă. De asemenea rămânem în legătură cu producătorii şi meşteşugarii din locaţia unde s-a desfăşurat festivalul. O contribuţie specială au avut şi cei peste 40 de voluntari, români, britanici şi americani”.
\n\nManifestare care s-a desfăşurat şi sub înaltul patronaj al Alteţei Sale Regale Principesa Margareta a României şi înaltul patronaj internaţional al Alteţei Sale Regale Prinţul Charles de Wales. Traveller Magazin a susţinut manifestarea în calitate de partener media.

Dacii şi romanii au atacat Constanţa cu... vin şi prăjituri
\nFirmele Domeniile Ostrov, Dobrogea Grup Constanţa şi Groove Hour au lansat o nouă campanie care aduce în prim plan două produse originale - “Vinul Labyrinthum” şi “Prăjitura ecologică Augusta”. Ele se alătură “Pâinii Antice Romane Labyrinthum”, şi vor contribui la susţinerea proiectul de restaurare, reabilitare şi punere în valoare a Edificiului Roman cu Mozaic Tomis, proiect iniţiat de Groove Hour în parteneriat cu Muzeul de Istorie Naţională şi Arheologie şi Consiliul Judeţean Constanţa.\nEvenimentul de lansare a fost marcat de o prezenţă inedită. Pentru prima dată soldaţii daci şi romani, ce formează Asociaţia Terra Dacica Aeterna din Cluj, au venit să prezinte un spectacol istoric la Constanţa. Echipamentul militar roman al soldaţilor poartă însemnele Legiunii XIII Gemina, legiunea cea mai longevivă pe teritoriul Daciei romane, care a staţionat în decursul secolelor II şi III d. Chr. la Apulum (Alba Iulia de azi).\n\nCu această ocazie istoricile rivalităţi dintre daci şi romani s-au manifestat din plin dar paşnic încântânt publicul prezent. Ostilităţile s-au încheiat în faţa sticlelor de “Vin Labyrinhtum”, un sec aromat, cu o savoare remarcabilă, catifelat, amplu ºi robust, respectiv al “Prăjiturii ecologice Augusta”, un desert BIO. El este preparat din făină integrală de grâu Spelta ecologic, după o reţetă veche de peste 2000 de ani, care are în compoziţie miere, unt, oua, stafide şi scorţişoară, toate certificate ecologic.\n„Din valoarea obţinută prin comercializarea produselor, Domeniile Ostrov şi Dobrogea Grup vor direcţiona lunar o sumă fixă ce va contribui la restaurarea, şi reabilitarea Mozaicului din Constanţa. Produsele Labyrinthum susţin proiectul de refacere a Edificiului Roman cu Mozaic din Constanţa în cadrul Centrului Cultural Labyrinthum - \"Labyrinthum\" - marcă înregistrată la OSIM România. Centrul este gândit ca o infrastructură cultural-istorică, ce integrează vestigiile şi expoziţia muzeală existentă într-un spaţiu dedicat evenimentelor inter-culturale, artistice, de media şi de afaceri” – ne-a precizat Dragoş Paiu, director de marketing Groove Hour. Traveller Magazin susţine ca partener media această campanie culturală.\nMARA ANTON\nFOTO: Groove Hour','REDESCOPERA ROMANIA NR.90 (SEPTEMBRIE 2011)','','inherit','open','open','','635-revision','','','2011-10-05 15:31:52','2011-10-05 13:31:52','',635,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/10/05/635-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(637,1,'2011-10-05 15:33:51','2011-10-05 13:33:51','','Visle 1','','inherit','open','open','','visle-1','','','2011-10-05 15:33:51','2011-10-05 13:33:51','',635,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Visle-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(638,1,'2011-10-05 15:35:11','2011-10-05 13:35:11','','Visle 2','','inherit','open','open','','visle-2','','','2011-10-05 15:35:11','2011-10-05 13:35:11','',635,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Visle-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(639,1,'2011-10-05 15:37:12','2011-10-05 13:37:12','','Turnir 1','','inherit','open','open','','turnir-1','','','2011-10-05 15:37:12','2011-10-05 13:37:12','',635,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Turnir-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(640,1,'2011-10-05 15:39:30','2011-10-05 13:39:30','','Turnir 2','','inherit','open','open','','turnir-2','','','2011-10-05 15:39:30','2011-10-05 13:39:30','',635,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Turnir-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(641,1,'2011-10-05 15:42:21','2011-10-05 13:42:21','','Turnir 2','','inherit','open','open','','turnir-2-2','','','2011-10-05 15:42:21','2011-10-05 13:42:21','',635,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Turnir-21.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(642,1,'2011-10-05 15:43:14','2011-10-05 13:43:14','','Blaj iulie 016','','inherit','open','open','','blaj-iulie-016','','','2011-10-05 15:43:14','2011-10-05 13:43:14','',635,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Blaj-iulie-016.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(643,1,'2011-10-05 15:43:42','2011-10-05 13:43:42','','Blaj iulie 039','','inherit','open','open','','blaj-iulie-039','','','2011-10-05 15:43:42','2011-10-05 13:43:42','',635,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Blaj-iulie-039.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(644,1,'2011-10-05 15:44:14','2011-10-05 13:44:14','','Blaj iulie 221','','inherit','open','open','','blaj-iulie-221','','','2011-10-05 15:44:14','2011-10-05 13:44:14','',635,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Blaj-iulie-221.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(645,1,'2011-10-05 15:44:54','2011-10-05 13:44:54','','Blaj iulie 267','','inherit','open','open','','blaj-iulie-267','','','2011-10-05 15:44:54','2011-10-05 13:44:54','',635,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Blaj-iulie-267.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(646,1,'2011-10-05 15:45:07','2011-10-05 13:45:07','Patzaichin şi-a lansat la apă... canotca
\nDacă ar fi să le adunăm pe toate ce au fost la prima ediţie a Festivalului Internaţional al Bărcilor cu Vâsle Rowmania ne-ar trebui mai mult de-o revistă. Aşa ca vom da la vâsle, ca să ne păstrăm în tonul manifestării ce s-a desfăşurat între 2 şi 4 septembrie la Tulcea, printre informaţii şi întâmplări.

Ei au deschis poarta spre trei zile pline de vâslit, plimbări cu canotca, seri cu concerte şi spectacole speciale (trupelor Toulouse Lautrec şi Travka, li s-au alăturat ulterior Radu Captari, Christian Becker & Avenue Band), dezbateri despre viitorul zonei, duplex video Tulcea – Viena, dar şi un târg al proiectelor de dezvoltare cu tema „Antreprenoriatul rural în Delta Dunării: oportunităţi şi ameninţări”.\nMusai să mai adăugăm - Festivalul Rowmania a prilejuit reluarea, după 2 ani, a competiţiei viteză (a cincea ediţie), recompensată cu trofeul Ivan Patzaichin şi că la sosirea participanţilor la maratonul din Tour International Danube organizatorii au numărat peste 100 de bărci care au tras în portul Tulcea, după un voiaj de două luni.

Turniruri medievale – povestea merge mai departe
\nCine n-a fost nu are ce povesti despre o vară fierbinte în Transilvania la festivalurile “Turnirul Cetăţilor”. Reunite în a doua ediţie - din iulie până la finele lui august - Râşnov, Braşov, Bran, Făgăraş au format o axă pe care iubitorii de istorie şi legendă au urmat-o cu devotament. Ce i-a chemat? Poveştile, ideea de cavalerism, întrecerile făcute ca la carte, după imagini descrise în cărţi dar fixate prin filme. Toate se străduiesc să renască în inimile noastre ideea de onoare, cinste şi vitejie.
Aşa că nu e de mirare că toate întâlnirile puse la cale de Asociaţia pentru Promovare şi Dezvoltarea Turismului din judeţul Braşov au atras vreo 250.000 pasionaţi. Impresionant nu? Şi nu e de mirare nici când numai la luptele cavalerilor nu a fost loc să arunci un ac. Cum să nu te fascineze, ca adult ori copil, luptele ecvestre sau pedestre între soldaţi, unii dintre ei încinşi de pasiunea de a câştiga năframa celei mai frumoase prinţese sau regine. Apoi muzicile, dansurile, jocurile medievale au atras ca un magnet pe tineri şi pe copii, care astfel au trăit cu ochii deschişi o lume care a existat şi mai poate fi redăruită prin astfel de manifestări contemporane.

BLAJ – mai mult decât haina istoriei
\nArhitectură, cultură, gastronomie, lecţii de voluntariat şi implicare şi nu în ultimul rând concursuri care arată că Transilvania Fest, este nu numai un festival anual ci şi un eveniment creator de valori.
refacere sunt implicaţi organizatorii Transilvania Fest împreună cu Primăria municipiului Blaj şi Consiliul Judeţean Alba.\n\nConcursul naţional „Reabilitarea corectă a Palatului Cultural din Blaj” a atras 11 soluţii arhitecturale. Câştigătorii au fost anunţaţi în incinta Palatului Cultural. Juriul format din arhitecţii Şerban Sturdza, Radu Mihăilescu, Adrian Soare şi Gabriel Roşca a recomandat ca soluţia câştigătoare să fie implementată de către Primăria Blaj şi Consiliul Judeţean Alba pentru ca acest spaţiu să găzduiască din nou manifestări culturale. Premiul I a revenit soluţiei SC Enclava, reprezentată de arhitecţii Radu Ursoiu şi Iulian Ungureanu. Proiectul oferă sustenabilitate şi se integrează armonios contextului urban şi cultural. Clădirea va reveni în circuitul cultural în august 2013, a anunţat Gheorghe Valentin Rotar, primarul Blajului.\n\nLa premiul I, în valoare de 3.000 de euro, au contribuit British Council România şi Fundaţia Caritabilă a Familiei Raţiu din Marea Britanie. Aceasta a fost înfiinţată în 1979 la Londra, de către Ion şi Elisabeta Raţiu, pentru a promova şi susţine învăţământul şi cercetarea în domeniul culturii şi istoriei poporului român. De altfel fundaţia a contribuit decisiv la organizarea ediţiilor Transilvania Fest. Au mai fost acordate şi 2 menţiuni speciale în valoare de câte 1.000 de euro fiecare.\nŢărani tradiţionali şi ecologici
\nAl doilea obiectiv al Transilvania Fest l-a reprezentat festivalul desfăşurat pe Câmpia Libertăţii. El a avut menirea de a susţine promovarea tradiţiilor şi obiceiurilor din Transilvania. Organizatorii ne-a subliniat câteva idei importante: „Până acum am fost în Turda, la Cluj, în Biertan în judeţul Sibiu. Acum am ajuns în judeţul Alba. Suntem bucuroşi că producătorii noştri, mai noi sau mai vechi, sunt din toată Transilvania şi ne urmează. Am avut 89 de standuri, producători şi mesteşugari.
\nMultă varietate. Păcat că vremea nu ne-a ajutat mai mult. Am avut şi brânză şi vin şi miere. Am avut şi program la scenă, concerte şi spectacole folclorice. Am avut ateliere dedicate tinerilor, meşteşugarilor şi producătorilor, organizaţiilor non-profit etc”.\nPrintre meşteşugari s-au numărat Mircea Sin, artist popular sticlar, Nicolae Banciu, Tulea Dorin, Piltiu Nicoleta şi Popa Maria, Bogdan Bretoiu, Călin Bănea, Ioan Szekely, care a atras cu cojoacele sale pline de culoare, Popa Gheorghe, Jozsa Csaba, cu ceramica de Corund, ori Willy Schuster, care sprijină „ţăranii ecologici şi tradiţionali”.
Am mai aminti şi de vinurile de Jidvei, unul dintre partenerii care au dat savoare preparatelor pregătite pe scenele Festivalului.
\nHai la... Şcoala şi la Oxford
\nNu întâmplător alte ateliere au fost ţinute pentru tineri şi profesori. Pentru că Blajul este recunoscut ca oraşul şcolilor. Întradevăr, în anul 1754 la Blaj şi-au deschis porţile Şcoala de obşte, Şcoala de latinie şi Şcoala de preoţie datorită episcopului greco-catolic Ion-Inocenţiu Micu-Klein. Aceste instituţii au fost primele şcoli sistematice superioare din spaţiul românesc în care s-a predat în limba română şi în care, pe lângă scris, citit şi studii teologice, se învăţau limbile străine şi ştiinţele.
\nPrin ce se distinge această manifestare? Oana Ioniţă, cea care s-a ocupat cu PR şi Comunicare precizează: „Nu este un simplu festival, este un proiect de dezvoltare comunitară, e doar vârful aisbergului acest festival de 3 zile.

Cuvântul „lent“ n-a fost niciodată preferatul meu, dar „turismul lent“ este un model la care mă gândeam demult, de când traficul prin Deltă a ajuns să semene cu cel din oraşele aglomerate, cu prea mult zgomot de motoare turate şi miros de motorină. Simţeam nevoia unui „traseu de biciclete“ prin Deltă, mai bine zis a unei „biciclete a apelor“, şi aşa s-a născut ideea unei bărci care să îmbine ce e mai bun de la lotcă (barca noastră tradiţională), cu viteza şi flexibilitatea canoei.

Turniruri medievale – povestea merge mai departe
\r\nCine n-a fost nu are ce povesti despre o vară fierbinte în Transilvania la festivalurile “Turnirul Cetăţilor”. Reunite în a doua ediţie - din iulie până la finele lui august - Râşnov, Braşov, Bran, Făgăraş au format o axă pe care iubitorii de istorie şi legendă au urmat-o cu devotament. Ce i-a chemat? Poveştile, ideea de cavalerism, întrecerile făcute ca la carte, după imagini descrise în cărţi dar fixate prin filme. Toate se străduiesc să renască în inimile noastre ideea de onoare, cinste şi vitejie.
\r\nAşa că nu e de mirare că toate întâlnirile puse la cale de Asociaţia pentru Promovare şi Dezvoltarea Turismului din judeţul Braşov au atras vreo 250.000 pasionaţi. Impresionant nu? Şi nu e de mirare nici când numai la luptele cavalerilor nu a fost loc să arunci un ac. Cum să nu te fascineze, ca adult ori copil, luptele ecvestre sau pedestre între soldaţi, unii dintre ei încinşi de pasiunea de a câştiga năframa celei mai frumoase prinţese sau regine. Apoi muzicile, dansurile, jocurile medievale au atras ca un magnet pe tineri şi pe copii, care astfel au trăit cu ochii deschişi o lume care a existat şi mai poate fi redăruită prin astfel de manifestări contemporane.\r\n\r\n“Turnirul cetăţilor” merită un calendar propriu, integrat în circuitele turistice. Este convingerea unui profesionist. Christian Macedonschi, liderul APDT Braşov, vorbeşte chiar de un program turistic, ce speră că va fi realizat împreună cu mai multe consilii judeţene, municipalităţi dar şi cu Biserica Evanghelică. Organizaţia a configurat ruta circuitului medieval – Braşov, Sighişoara, Mediaş şi Sibiu. Cetăţi şi biserici fortificate, o parte refăcute altele în curs de restaurare, ar putea fi prezentate turiştilor pe parcursul a şapte zile. Produsul va fi promovat pe plan internaţional.

BLAJ – mai mult decât haina istoriei
\r\nArhitectură, cultură, gastronomie, lecţii de voluntariat şi implicare şi nu în ultimul rând concursuri care arată că Transilvania Fest, este nu numai un festival anual ci şi un eveniment creator de valori.\r\n\r\nMunicipiul Blaj, judeţul Alba, a fost gazda celei de a 7-a ediţii a Festivalului itinerant de cultură şi mâncare Transilvania Fest. Înainte de a relata despre acestea va trebui să spunem că evenimentul primei zile a fost decernarea premiului pentru cea mai bună soluţie arhitecturală pentru restaurarea Palatului Cultural din Blaj distrus în anii 1990 în proporţie de 40% în urma unui incendiu. Palatul Cultural a fost inaugurat în 1936, de către regele Carol al II-lea. În proiectul de refacere sunt implicaţi organizatorii Transilvania Fest împreună cu Primăria municipiului Blaj şi Consiliul Judeţean Alba.\r\n\r\nConcursul naţional „Reabilitarea corectă a Palatului Cultural din Blaj” a atras 11 soluţii arhitecturale. Câştigătorii au fost anunţaţi în incinta Palatului Cultural. Juriul format din arhitecţii Şerban Sturdza, Radu Mihăilescu, Adrian Soare şi Gabriel Roşca a recomandat ca soluţia câştigătoare să fie implementată de către Primăria Blaj şi Consiliul Judeţean Alba pentru ca acest spaţiu să găzduiască din nou manifestări culturale. Premiul I a revenit soluţiei SC Enclava, reprezentată de arhitecţii Radu Ursoiu şi Iulian Ungureanu. Proiectul oferă sustenabilitate şi se integrează armonios contextului urban şi cultural. Clădirea va reveni în circuitul cultural în august 2013, a anunţat Gheorghe Valentin Rotar, primarul Blajului.\r\n\r\nLa premiul I, în valoare de 3.000 de euro, au contribuit British Council România şi Fundaţia Caritabilă a Familiei Raţiu din Marea Britanie. Aceasta a fost înfiinţată în 1979 la Londra, de către Ion şi Elisabeta Raţiu, pentru a promova şi susţine învăţământul şi cercetarea în domeniul culturii şi istoriei poporului român. De altfel fundaţia a contribuit decisiv la organizarea ediţiilor Transilvania Fest. Au mai fost acordate şi 2 menţiuni speciale în valoare de câte 1.000 de euro fiecare.
\r\nŢărani tradiţionali şi ecologici
\r\nAl doilea obiectiv al Transilvania Fest l-a reprezentat festivalul desfăşurat pe Câmpia Libertăţii. El a avut menirea de a susţine promovarea tradiţiilor şi obiceiurilor din Transilvania. Organizatorii ne-a subliniat câteva idei importante: „Până acum am fost în Turda, la Cluj, în Biertan în judeţul Sibiu. Acum am ajuns în judeţul Alba. Suntem bucuroşi că producătorii noştri, mai noi sau mai vechi, sunt din toată Transilvania şi ne urmează. Am avut 89 de standuri, producători şi mesteşugari.
\r\nMultă varietate. Păcat că vremea nu ne-a ajutat mai mult. Am avut şi brânză şi vin şi miere. Am avut şi program la scenă, concerte şi spectacole folclorice. Am avut ateliere dedicate tinerilor, meşteşugarilor şi producătorilor, organizaţiilor non-profit etc”. Printre meşteşugari s-au numărat Mircea Sin, artist popular sticlar, Nicolae Banciu, Tulea Dorin, Piltiu Nicoleta şi Popa Maria, Bogdan Bretoiu, Călin Bănea, Ioan Szekely, care a atras cu cojoacele sale pline de culoare, Popa Gheorghe, Jozsa Csaba, cu ceramica de Corund, ori Willy Schuster, care sprijină „ţăranii ecologici şi tradiţionali”.
\r\nAm mai aminti şi de vinurile de Jidvei, unul dintre partenerii care au dat savoare preparatelor pregătite pe scenele Festivalului.
\r\nHai la... Şcoala şi la Oxford
\r\nNu întâmplător alte ateliere au fost ţinute pentru tineri şi profesori. Pentru că Blajul este recunoscut ca oraşul şcolilor. Întradevăr, în anul 1754 la Blaj şi-au deschis porţile Şcoala de obşte, Şcoala de latinie şi Şcoala de preoţie datorită episcopului greco-catolic Ion-Inocenţiu Micu-Klein. Aceste instituţii au fost primele şcoli sistematice superioare din spaţiul românesc în care s-a predat în limba română şi în care, pe lângă scris, citit şi studii teologice, se învăţau limbile străine şi ştiinţele.
\r\nPrin ce se distinge această manifestare? Oana Ioniţă, cea care s-a ocupat cu PR şi Comunicare precizează: „Nu este un simplu festival, este un proiect de dezvoltare comunitară, e doar vârful aisbergului acest festival de 3 zile. Schimbând comunităţile din Transilvania în fiecare an, încercăm de fapt să punem un accent pe tradiţiile şi obiceiurile din zona respectivă. De peste 4 ani avem un program cu Universitatea Oxford Brookes. Ei au un departament de management ospitalier şi a petrecerii timpului liber.
\r\nAmintesc aici de Annabel Charlotte Gunner, Frances Reilly şi Harriet Kinsbrook care ne-au sprijit foarte mult. Un alt susţinător al proiectelor de gastronomie, partizan al mişcării Slow Food, este Paul Bloomfield, consultant gastronomic, chef şi un îndrăgostit de România. Studenţii vin în locaţie cu 6-8 săptămâni înainte şi lucrează pe proiecte specifice, de la dezvoltare comunitară până la harta gastronomică a zonei sau site-uri de dezvoltare turistică exact pe locaţia respectivă. De asemenea rămânem în legătură cu producătorii şi meşteşugarii din locaţia unde s-a desfăşurat festivalul. O contribuţie specială au avut şi cei peste 40 de voluntari, români, britanici şi americani”.
\r\n\r\nManifestare care s-a desfăşurat şi sub înaltul patronaj al Alteţei Sale Regale Principesa Margareta a României şi înaltul patronaj internaţional al Alteţei Sale Regale Prinţul Charles de Wales. Traveller Magazin a susţinut manifestarea în calitate de partener media.

Dacii şi romanii au atacat Constanţa cu... vin şi prăjituri
\r\nFirmele Domeniile Ostrov, Dobrogea Grup Constanţa şi Groove Hour au lansat o nouă campanie care aduce în prim plan două produse originale - “Vinul Labyrinthum” şi “Prăjitura ecologică Augusta”. Ele se alătură “Pâinii Antice Romane Labyrinthum”, şi vor contribui la susţinerea proiectul de restaurare, reabilitare şi punere în valoare a Edificiului Roman cu Mozaic Tomis, proiect iniţiat de Groove Hour în parteneriat cu Muzeul de Istorie Naţională şi Arheologie şi Consiliul Judeţean Constanţa.\r\nEvenimentul de lansare a fost marcat de o prezenţă inedită. Pentru prima dată soldaţii daci şi romani, ce formează Asociaţia Terra Dacica Aeterna din Cluj, au venit să prezinte un spectacol istoric la Constanţa. Echipamentul militar roman al soldaţilor poartă însemnele Legiunii XIII Gemina, legiunea cea mai longevivă pe teritoriul Daciei romane, care a staţionat în decursul secolelor II şi III d. Chr. la Apulum (Alba Iulia de azi).\r\n\r\nCu această ocazie istoricile rivalităţi dintre daci şi romani s-au manifestat din plin dar paşnic încântânt publicul prezent. Ostilităţile s-au încheiat în faţa sticlelor de “Vin Labyrinhtum”, un sec aromat, cu o savoare remarcabilă, catifelat, amplu ºi robust, respectiv al “Prăjiturii ecologice Augusta”, un desert BIO. El este preparat din făină integrală de grâu Spelta ecologic, după o reţetă veche de peste 2000 de ani, care are în compoziţie miere, unt, oua, stafide şi scorţişoară, toate certificate ecologic.\r\n„Din valoarea obţinută prin comercializarea produselor, Domeniile Ostrov şi Dobrogea Grup vor direcţiona lunar o sumă fixă ce va contribui la restaurarea, şi reabilitarea Mozaicului din Constanţa. Produsele Labyrinthum susţin proiectul de refacere a Edificiului Roman cu Mozaic din Constanţa în cadrul Centrului Cultural Labyrinthum - \"Labyrinthum\" - marcă înregistrată la OSIM România. Centrul este gândit ca o infrastructură cultural-istorică, ce integrează vestigiile şi expoziţia muzeală existentă într-un spaţiu dedicat evenimentelor inter-culturale, artistice, de media şi de afaceri” – ne-a precizat Dragoş Paiu, director de marketing Groove Hour.

\r\nDacă ar fi să le adunăm pe toate ce au fost la prima ediţie a Festivalului Internaţional al Bărcilor cu Vâsle Rowmania ne-ar trebui mai mult de-o revistă. Aşa ca vom da la vâsle, ca să ne păstrăm în tonul manifestării ce s-a desfăşurat între 2 şi 4 septembrie la Tulcea, printre informaţii şi întâmplări.

\r\n\r\nLumea s-a delectat, şi cuvântul e corect, cu o paradă a canotorilor, unde alături de Ivan s-au aflat Vasile Dîba şi Toma Simionov, doi parteneri, dar şi alţi medaliaţi în competiţii internaţionale. Ei au deschis poarta spre trei zile pline de vâslit, plimbări cu canotca, seri cu concerte şi spectacole speciale (trupelor Toulouse Lautrec şi Travka, li s-au alăturat ulterior Radu Captari, Christian Becker & Avenue Band), dezbateri despre viitorul zonei, duplex video Tulcea – Viena, dar şi un târg al proiectelor de dezvoltare cu tema „Antreprenoriatul rural în Delta Dunării: oportunităţi şi ameninţări”.\r\nMusai să mai adăugăm - Festivalul Rowmania a prilejuit reluarea, după 2 ani, a competiţiei viteză (a cincea ediţie), recompensată cu trofeul Ivan Patzaichin şi că la sosirea participanţilor la maratonul din Tour International Danube organizatorii au numărat peste 100 de bărci care au tras în portul Tulcea, după un voiaj de două luni.

Turniruri medievale – povestea merge mai departe
\r\nCine n-a fost nu are ce povesti despre o vară fierbinte în Transilvania la festivalurile “Turnirul Cetăţilor”. Reunite în a doua ediţie - din iulie până la finele lui august - Râşnov, Braşov, Bran, Făgăraş au format o axă pe care iubitorii de istorie şi legendă au urmat-o cu devotament. Ce i-a chemat? Poveştile, ideea de cavalerism, întrecerile făcute ca la carte, după imagini descrise în cărţi dar fixate prin filme. Toate se străduiesc să renască în inimile noastre ideea de onoare, cinste şi vitejie.
Aşa că nu e de mirare că toate întâlnirile puse la cale de Asociaţia pentru Promovare şi Dezvoltarea Turismului din judeţul Braşov au atras vreo 250.000 pasionaţi. Impresionant nu? Şi nu e de mirare nici când numai la luptele cavalerilor nu a fost loc să arunci un ac. Cum să nu te fascineze, ca adult ori copil, luptele ecvestre sau pedestre între soldaţi, unii dintre ei încinşi de pasiunea de a câştiga năframa celei mai frumoase prinţese sau regine. Apoi muzicile, dansurile, jocurile medievale au atras ca un magnet pe tineri şi pe copii, care astfel au trăit cu ochii deschişi o lume care a existat şi mai poate fi redăruită prin astfel de manifestări contemporane.
Circuitul medieval propune, numai în judeţul Braşov, vizite la Herghelia şi Mânastirea Sâmbata, Cetăţile Făgăraş şi Râşnov, Castelul Bran, Bisericile Fortificate săseşti din Hărman, Prejmer, Ghimbav, Codlea, Sânpetru, Halchiu, Holbav, Viscri, Buneşti, Roadeş, Feldioara şi Rupea.

Suntem bucuroşi că producătorii noştri, mai noi sau mai vechi, sunt din toată Transilvania şi ne urmează. Am avut 89 de standuri, producători şi mesteşugari.
\r\nMultă varietate. Păcat că vremea nu ne-a ajutat mai mult. Am avut şi brânză şi vin şi miere. Am avut şi program la scenă, concerte şi spectacole folclorice. Am avut ateliere dedicate tinerilor, meşteşugarilor şi producătorilor, organizaţiilor non-profit etc”.\r\nPrintre meşteşugari s-au numărat Mircea Sin, artist popular sticlar, Nicolae Banciu, Tulea Dorin, Piltiu Nicoleta şi Popa Maria, Bogdan Bretoiu, Călin Bănea, Ioan Szekely, care a atras cu cojoacele sale pline de culoare, Popa Gheorghe, Jozsa Csaba, cu ceramica de Corund, ori Willy Schuster, care sprijină „ţăranii ecologici şi tradiţionali”.
Am mai aminti şi de vinurile de Jidvei, unul dintre partenerii care au dat savoare preparatelor pregătite pe scenele Festivalului.
\r\nHai la... Şcoala şi la Oxford
\r\nNu întâmplător alte ateliere au fost ţinute pentru tineri şi profesori. Pentru că Blajul este recunoscut ca oraşul şcolilor. Întradevăr, în anul 1754 la Blaj şi-au deschis porţile Şcoala de obşte, Şcoala de latinie şi Şcoala de preoţie datorită episcopului greco-catolic Ion-Inocenţiu Micu-Klein. Aceste instituţii au fost primele şcoli sistematice superioare din spaţiul românesc în care s-a predat în limba română şi în care, pe lângă scris, citit şi studii teologice, se învăţau limbile străine şi ştiinţele.
\r\nPrin ce se distinge această manifestare? Oana Ioniţă, cea care s-a ocupat cu PR şi Comunicare precizează: „Nu este un simplu festival, este un proiect de dezvoltare comunitară, e doar vârful aisbergului acest festival de 3 zile. Schimbând comunităţile din Transilvania în fiecare an, încercăm de fapt să punem un accent pe tradiţiile şi obiceiurile din zona respectivă. De peste 4 ani avem un program cu Universitatea Oxford Brookes. Ei au un departament de management ospitalier şi a petrecerii timpului liber.
\r\nAmintesc aici de Annabel Charlotte Gunner, Frances Reilly şi Harriet Kinsbrook care ne-au sprijit foarte mult. Un alt susţinător al proiectelor de gastronomie, partizan al mişcării Slow Food, este Paul Bloomfield, consultant gastronomic, chef şi un îndrăgostit de România. Studenţii vin în locaţie cu 6-8 săptămâni înainte şi lucrează pe proiecte specifice, de la dezvoltare comunitară până la harta gastronomică a zonei sau site-uri de dezvoltare turistică exact pe locaţia respectivă. De asemenea rămânem în legătură cu producătorii şi meşteşugarii din locaţia unde s-a desfăşurat festivalul. O contribuţie specială au avut şi cei peste 40 de voluntari, români, britanici şi americani”.
\r\nManifestare care s-a desfăşurat şi sub înaltul patronaj al Alteţei Sale Regale Principesa Margareta a României şi înaltul patronaj internaţional al Alteţei Sale Regale Prinţul Charles de Wales. Traveller Magazin a susţinut manifestarea în calitate de partener media.

Dacii şi romanii au atacat Constanţa cu... vin şi prăjituri
\r\nFirmele Domeniile Ostrov, Dobrogea Grup Constanţa şi Groove Hour au lansat o nouă campanie care aduce în prim plan două produse originale - “Vinul Labyrinthum” şi “Prăjitura ecologică Augusta”. Ele se alătură “Pâinii Antice Romane Labyrinthum”, şi vor contribui la susţinerea proiectul de restaurare, reabilitare şi punere în valoare a Edificiului Roman cu Mozaic Tomis, proiect iniţiat de Groove Hour în parteneriat cu Muzeul de Istorie Naţională şi Arheologie şi Consiliul Judeţean Constanţa.\r\nEvenimentul de lansare a fost marcat de o prezenţă inedită. Pentru prima dată soldaţii daci şi romani, ce formează Asociaţia Terra Dacica Aeterna din Cluj, au venit să prezinte un spectacol istoric la Constanţa. Echipamentul militar roman al soldaţilor poartă însemnele Legiunii XIII Gemina, legiunea cea mai longevivă pe teritoriul Daciei romane, care a staţionat în decursul secolelor II şi III d. Chr. la Apulum (Alba Iulia de azi).\r\n\r\nCu această ocazie istoricile rivalităţi dintre daci şi romani s-au manifestat din plin dar paşnic încântânt publicul prezent. Ostilităţile s-au încheiat în faţa sticlelor de “Vin Labyrinhtum”, un sec aromat, cu o savoare remarcabilă, catifelat, amplu ºi robust, respectiv al “Prăjiturii ecologice Augusta”, un desert BIO. El este preparat din făină integrală de grâu Spelta ecologic, după o reţetă veche de peste 2000 de ani, care are în compoziţie miere, unt, oua, stafide şi scorţişoară, toate certificate ecologic.\r\n„Din valoarea obţinută prin comercializarea produselor, Domeniile Ostrov şi Dobrogea Grup vor direcţiona lunar o sumă fixă ce va contribui la restaurarea, şi reabilitarea Mozaicului din Constanţa. Produsele Labyrinthum susţin proiectul de refacere a Edificiului Roman cu Mozaic din Constanţa în cadrul Centrului Cultural Labyrinthum - \"Labyrinthum\" - marcă înregistrată la OSIM România. Centrul este gândit ca o infrastructură cultural-istorică, ce integrează vestigiile şi expoziţia muzeală existentă într-un spaţiu dedicat evenimentelor inter-culturale, artistice, de media şi de afaceri” – ne-a precizat Dragoş Paiu, director de marketing Groove Hour.

A fost măcinat de propriile interese. Între societăţile comerciale care au cumpărat şi investit în diverse staţiuni, între interesele corpului medical ce lucrează în regim de angajat al statului, peste care s-au depus sedimentele politice ale administraţiilor dar şi interminabilele revendicări şi moşteniri.\r\n\r\nTurismul balnear, care reprezintă circa 20.000 de locuri de cazare, vrea acum, prin liderii săi, să aibă un discurs nou şi eficient. O sinteză, mai mult de idei, decât de lucruri care pot deveni rapid realitate, a fost derulată şi în cadrul Mesei Rotunde ce s-a desfăşurat la Bucureşti. Specialiştii din industria de sănătate, profesori şi experţi, numeroşi ziarişti – care dovedesc că subiectul e are vână şi e vandabil – şi-au expus argumentele şi proiectele. Au venit la “masa” dezbaterilor lideri ai Organizaţiei Patronale a Turismului Balnear din România (OPTBR), ai agenţiilor de turism (ANAT), ai Asociaţiei Naţionale a Staţiunilor Turistice din România, ai Institutului de Recuperare, Medicină Fizică şi Balneologie, respectiv ai Camerei de Comerţ şi Industrie Covasna şi ai unor sindicate care deţin şi operează complexe balneare.\r\n\r\nŢinta e anul 2012. Există un plan în 11 puncte. Scopul? Dezvoltarea. El a fost conceput în parteneriat de organizaţiile amintite şi prevede, printre altele, elaborarea şi promovarea în procedură de urgenţă a unei... legi a turismului balnear; certificarea şi atestarea factorilor naturali şi a procedurilor de tratament din staţiunile balneare de interes naţional şi ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Balnear-3.jpg\" "\\"Balnear")
internaţional. Primii paşi au fost făcuţi. Dar specialiştii se lovesc în multe locuri de lipsa de receptivitate a administraţiei locale.\r\n\r\nUn aspect important dar spinos, îl reprezintă atragerea medicilor de familie de a oferi în contra balans, la prescrierea de medicamente, variante terapeutice şi tratament în staţiunile balneare. Mai ieftine şi mai eficiente. Nu au lipsit apelurile pentru acordarea facilităţilor fiscale investitorilor strategici din staţiunile balenare atestate. Alte facilităţi fiscale ar trebui acordate agenţiilor de turism care vând pachete turistice în staţiunile balneare certificate, un TVA redus cu 5% la pachetele de servicii balneo şi de sănătate, neimpozitarea profitului reinvestit – a subliniat Nicu Rădulescu, preşedintele OPTBR.\r\n\r\nO proiecţie de completare a fost susţinută de reprezentantul ANAT, Lucia Morariu, om de afaceri şi fost secretar de stat pe probleme de turism. Domnia sa a abordat problema Tichetelor de vacanţă, “pentru care solicităm eliminarea impozitului de 16%. Ar fi necesară, de asemenea, aplicarea în sistemul bugetar a prevederii legale – primele de ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Balnear-5.jpg\" "\\"Balnear")
vacanţă se dau NUMAI sub formă de tichete de vacanţă. Este până la urmă şi o formă de sanitate economică, deoarece aşa am putea reduce substanţial turismul la negru, bugetul statului având numai de câştigat.

Între societăţile comerciale care au cumpărat şi investit în diverse staţiuni, între interesele corpului medical ce lucrează în regim de angajat al statului, peste care s-au depus sedimentele politice ale administraţiilor dar şi interminabilele revendicări şi moşteniri.\n\nTurismul balnear, care reprezintă circa 20.000 de locuri de cazare, vrea acum, prin liderii săi, să aibă un discurs nou şi eficient. O sinteză, mai mult de idei, decât de lucruri care pot deveni rapid realitate, a fost derulată şi în cadrul Mesei Rotunde ce s-a desfăşurat la Bucureşti. Specialiştii din industria de sănătate, profesori şi experţi, numeroşi ziarişti – care dovedesc că subiectul e are vână şi e vandabil – şi-au expus argumentele şi proiectele. Au venit la “masa” dezbaterilor lideri ai Organizaţiei Patronale a Turismului Balnear din România (OPTBR), ai agenţiilor de turism (ANAT), ai Asociaţiei Naţionale a Staţiunilor Turistice din România, ai Institutului de Recuperare, Medicină Fizică şi Balneologie, respectiv ai Camerei de Comerţ şi Industrie Covasna şi ai unor sindicate care deţin şi operează complexe balneare.\n\nŢinta e anul 2012. Există un plan în 11 puncte. Scopul? Dezvoltarea. El a fost conceput în parteneriat de organizaţiile amintite şi prevede, printre altele, elaborarea şi promovarea în procedură de urgenţă a unei... legi a turismului balnear; certificarea şi atestarea factorilor naturali şi a procedurilor de tratament din staţiunile balneare de interes naţional şi internaţional. Primii paşi au fost făcuţi. Dar specialiştii se lovesc în multe locuri de lipsa de receptivitate a administraţiei locale.\n\nUn aspect important dar spinos, îl reprezintă atragerea medicilor de familie de a oferi în contra balans, la prescrierea de medicamente, variante terapeutice şi tratament în staţiunile balneare. Mai ieftine şi mai eficiente. Nu au lipsit apelurile pentru acordarea facilităţilor fiscale investitorilor strategici din staţiunile balenare atestate. Alte facilităţi fiscale ar trebui acordate agenţiilor de turism care vând pachete turistice în staţiunile balneare certificate, un TVA redus cu 5% la pachetele de servicii balneo şi de sănătate, neimpozitarea profitului reinvestit – a subliniat Nicu Rădulescu, preşedintele OPTBR.\n\nO proiecţie de completare a fost susţinută de reprezentantul ANAT, Lucia Morariu, om de afaceri şi fost secretar de stat pe probleme de turism. Domnia sa a abordat problema Tichetelor de vacanţă, “pentru care solicităm eliminarea impozitului de 16%. Ar fi necesară, de asemenea, aplicarea în sistemul bugetar a prevederii legale – primele de vacanţă se dau NUMAI sub formă de tichete de vacanţă. Este până la urmă şi o formă de sanitate economică, deoarece aşa am putea reduce substanţial turismul la negru, bugetul statului având numai de câştigat. În plus e nevoie de realizarea unui program informatic care să permită externalizarea serviciului de difuzare a biletelor de odihnă şi tratament de la CNAPS, pentru pensionari şi bugetari, prin agenţiile de turism care lucrează deja cu sisteme performate şi au o distribuţie teritorială corespunzătoare”.\n\nHerman Rosner, iniţiatorul proiectului Tichete de Vacanţă, preşedinte al Camerei de Comerţ şi Industrie Covasna, a arătat că în condiţiile scăderii circulaţiei interne acest instrument modern de planificare a sănătăţii, este menit să contribuie la creşterea numărului de turişti interni, benefică pentru industrie.

Grupul Eurolines România a încheiat un parteneriat strategic cu TUI Travel PLC, liderul mondial în domeniul turismului. Acesta marchează finalizarea unei tranzacţii ce nu a presupus cumpărare de acţiuni, care extinde operaţiunile Grupului Eurolines şi debutul colaborării pentru piaţa din România şi Moldova. Reţeaua de distribuţie Eurolines alcătuită din 52 de agenţii, va funcţiona sub numele TUI Travel Center. Într-o primă fază 25 dintre acestea vor căpăta această denumire. O cotă importantă din totalitatea ofertelor turistice din agenţii va fi reprezentată de produsele World of TUI.\r\n\r\nÎn perioada imediat următoare, o parte însemnată din agenţiile reţelei va fi personalizată cu identităţile vizuale ale celor doi lideri de piaţă – TUI şi Eurolines. \"Căutam de câţiva ani cele mai bune soluţii pentru a pătrunde pe piaţa de distribuţie a turismului din România şi suntem fericiţi că am găsit în Eurolines partenerul potrivit pentru o colaborare strategică şi pe termen lung.\" – declară dr. Klaus Pümpel, CEO TUI Austria Holding.\r\n\r\nPe de altă parte Harald Kraus, director de distribuţie şi strategii al TUI a subliniat: “Calitatea serviciilor Eurolines din România este şi în prezent foarte ridicată, dar ne dorim ca în următorii ani acest standard să crească, să extindem reţeaua de distribuţie la o sută de birouri şi să creştem considerabil cota TUI în distribuţia produselor turistice. Ţelul nostru este să devenim şi în România numărul 1 cu TUI Travel Center”. TUI Travel PLC reprezintă cea mai mare companie de turism din lume.

Compania de turism TravelMaker a lansat în România Triplanet.ro, unul dintre cele mai importante sisteme de rezervări online de pachete turistice de tip City Break. Aflat de peste 4 ani în topul site-urilor de turism din Ungaria şi având peste 30.000 utilizatori activi în această ţară, Triplanet.ro integrează un sistem automat de monitorizare şi afişare a celor mai bune oferte turistice şi îşi propune să devina unul dintre site-urile româneşti de referinţă.\r\n\r\nCe strategie este abordată pentru maximizare vânzărilor? Dan Penciu, director General al Agenţiei TravelMaker ne oferă detalii lămuritoare şi apreciază că: “Triplanet se bazează pe o tehnologie de ultimă generaţie. Website-ul analizează în timp real ofertele hotelurilor şi companiilor aeriene. Fiind un sistem care lucrează 100% pe Internet, site-ul funcţionează fără intervenţia agentului de turism, preţurile sunt reale, actualizate şi - cel mai important - convenabile. Deţinem la TravelMaker o experienţa de şase ani. Ne-am dezvoltat în comunitatea ANAT şi ne-am calificat pentru acreditarea IATA. Avem numeroase motive să credem că viitorul turismului aparţine on-line-ului. Eu cred că este cea mai prietenoasă aplicaţie de acest gen din turismul on-line românesc. Ofertele obţinute sunt absolut reale şi, pentru confirmarea opţiunilor alese şi a rezervării, se completează un singur formular. Plata se face on-line, cu cardul, fără nici un comision suplimentar. În plus, Triplanet.ro crează în timp real Pachete Dinamice – având astfel capacitatea de a oferi un produs turistic personalizat. Sistemul caută în ofertele a 20.000 hoteluri, din peste 100 de destinaţii şi verifică tarife pentru aproximativ 250 companii aeriene de linie şi low cost. Rezultatul final este un pachet de cazare şi transport care răspunde tuturor cerinţelor clientului.”\r\nION BADEA\r\n\r\n\r\n

Sosirile au însumat 3721,9 mii de turişti, din care cele ale românilor au reprezentat în perioada de referinţă 77,8%, din numărul total de sosiri, în timp ce străinii au reprezentat 22,2%, valoarea apropiată cu cea înregistrată în intervalul similar al anului trecut. Sosirile în hoteluri deţin o pondere de 76,9% din total înregistrat în structurile de primire turistică, ceea ce marchează o creştere cu 15,4% faţă de aceeaşi perioadă. Şi înnoptările au consemnat o dinamică favorabilă în structurile de primire turistică ajungând la 9187,3 mii ceea ce exprimă o creştere de 9,9%.
\nDupă Ungaria, Slovacia, Cehia, Slovenia, Croaţia, Serbia şi Bulgaria, TUI Reise Center îşi extinde reţeaua de distribuţie şi în România. Grupul Eurolines România a încheiat un parteneriat strategic cu TUI Travel PLC, liderul mondial în domeniul turismului. Acesta marchează finalizarea unei tranzacţii ce nu a presupus cumpărare de acţiuni, care extinde operaţiunile Grupului Eurolines şi debutul colaborării pentru piaţa din România şi Moldova. Reţeaua de distribuţie Eurolines alcătuită din 52 de agenţii, va funcţiona sub numele TUI Travel Center. Într-o primă fază 25 dintre acestea vor căpăta această denumire. O cotă importantă din totalitatea ofertelor turistice din agenţii va fi reprezentată de produsele World of TUI.\n\nÎn perioada imediat următoare, o parte însemnată din agenţiile reţelei va fi personalizată cu identităţile vizuale ale celor doi lideri de piaţă – TUI şi Eurolines. \"Căutam de câţiva ani cele mai bune soluţii pentru a pătrunde pe piaţa de distribuţie a turismului din România şi suntem fericiţi că am găsit în Eurolines partenerul potrivit pentru o colaborare strategică şi pe termen lung.\" – declară dr. Klaus Pümpel, CEO TUI Austria Holding.\n\nPe de altă parte Harald Kraus, director de distribuţie şi strategii al TUI a subliniat: “Calitatea serviciilor Eurolines din România este şi în prezent foarte ridicată, dar ne dorim ca în următorii ani acest standard să crească, să extindem reţeaua de distribuţie la o sută de birouri şi să creştem considerabil cota TUI în distribuţia produselor turistice. Ţelul nostru este să devenim şi în România numărul 1 cu TUI Travel Center”. TUI Travel PLC reprezintă cea mai mare companie de turism din lume. Ea operează în 180 de ţări, are în jur de 30 de milioane de clienţi anual şi peste 71.000 angajati.\n\nLa nivel mondial este organizată în 3 grupuri distincte: TUI Travel, TUI Hotels and Resorts şi TUI Cruises.\n\nLa rândul său Dragoş Anastasiu, liderul grupului Eurolines, alcătuit din 9 societăţi cu 400 de angajaţi, a precizat că “Noţiuni ca “siguranţă” şi “calitate” vor primi o nouă dimensiune cu TUI în România. Prin TUI Travel Center turistului din ţara noastră i se va comunica explicit că Eurolines însumează un portofoliu de servicii de primă mână, adăugând acum activităţilor cunoscute şi pe aceea de distribuţie a produselor TUI”.\n\nPrin tranzacţia încheiată, Eurolines a preluat şi societatea Danubius Travel. Aceasta era deţinută, într-un procent majoritar de către TUI Travel PLC. Danubius Travel a fost fondată la Constanţa în 1990 de către Ciprian Popescu şi Camelia Dinu, fiind una dintre primele companii de turism infiinţate în 1990 în România. “Danubius Travel devine parte integrantă a Grupului Eurolines, dar îşi va administra ariile sale de expertiză - turismul de incoming, croaziere şi business travel” – ne-a declarat Ciprian Popescu, care îşi păstrează poziţia în cadrul noului management al companiei.\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\n\n\n

O întrebare banală!Chiar, cine ar trebui să promoveze România turistică? Am asistat la mii de ore de discuţii sterile despre cum o asociaţie sau alta ştie foarte bine cum să promoveze atracţiile turistice ale ţării. Unii dintre liderii lor chiar dacă îşi dau seama că spun lucruri penibile, o ţin langa înainte. Dacă îi întrebi concret, ce trebuie făcut, pun în operă o limbă de lemn mai rea decât cea de pe vremea lui Ceauşescu. Frazele încep deseori cu … să prioritizăm priorităţile.
În unele cazuri în aceeaşi zonă mai se derulează un program aproape identic, tot cu finanţări europene dar cu alt titular. Veţi spune că e bine să existe diversitate. Dar cel mai mare defect este că majoritatea programelor nu se conectează cu politicile turistice ale statului ori ale administraţiei locale. De aceea nu creează plus valoarea aşteptată de comunitate.

Promovarea turistică poate fi comparată cu o autostradă de simboluri, imagini, concepte publicitare care interconectate conduc la efectele estimate. Dacă proiectanţii au greşit măsurătorile atunci cu singuranţă constructorii vor realiza drumuri care nu se vor întâlni niciodată. Pentru a nu se întâmpla asta trebuie să răspundem la întrebarea iniţială. Cine ar trebui să promoveze România? Fireşte că statul, bun-rău nu contează, pe care-l avem.

Am asistat la mii de ore de discuţii sterile despre cum o asociaţie sau alta ştie foarte bine cum să promoveze atracţiile turistice ale ţării. Unii dintre liderii lor chiar dacă îşi dau seama că spun lucruri penibile, o ţin langa înainte. Dacă îi întrebi concret, ce trebuie făcut, pun în operă o limbă de lemn mai rea decât cea de pe vremea lui Ceauşescu. Frazele încep deseori cu … să prioritizăm priorităţile.
În unele cazuri în aceeaşi zonă mai se derulează un program aproape identic, tot cu finanţări europene dar cu alt titular. Veţi spune că e bine să existe diversitate. Dar cel mai mare defect este că majoritatea programelor nu se conectează cu politicile turistice ale statului ori ale administraţiei locale. De aceea nu creează plus valoarea aşteptată de comunitate.
\r\nPromovarea turistică poate fi comparată cu o autostradă de simboluri, imagini, concepte publicitare care interconectate conduc la efectele estimate. Dacă proiectanţii au greşit măsurătorile atunci cu singuranţă constructorii vor realiza drumuri care nu se vor întâlni niciodată. Pentru a nu se întâmpla asta trebuie să răspundem la întrebarea iniţială. Cine ar trebui să promoveze România? Fireşte că statul, bun-rău nu contează, pe care-l avem.

\r\n@ S-A EXTINS SERVICIUL GRATUIT DE CHECK-IN ONLINE. Compania Blue Air a introdus sistemul gratuit de check-in online şi pentru zborurile cu plecare din Barcelona, Nisa, Larnaca, Malaga, Valencia, urmând ca în cel mai scurt timp să fie disponibil pentru majoritatea destinaţiilor. Serviciul poate fi folosit cu maxim 14 zile înainte de data plecării şi până la trei ore înainte de ora decolării. La finalul procesului de check-in online pasagerii trebuie să tipărească documentul cu care se vor prezenta la aeroport pentru îmbarcare. Astfel se reduce timpul de aşteptare în aeroport, iar persoanele care călătoresc doar cu bagaj de mână se vor prezenta direct la poarta de îmbarcare, cu 60 de minute înaintea decolării. Pasagerii cu bagaje de cală se vor prezenta cu 90 de minute înainte de zbor la biroul de înregistrare bagaje – ne-a precizat Florentina Tatu, directorul de PR & Advertising al Blue Air.
\r\n@ BACĂU-CATANIA ÎNCĂ O DESTINAŢIE ÎN ORARUL DE VARĂ 2012. Prima companie de smart flying din România, a lansat o nouă destinaţie directă cu plecare din Bacău, respectiv Catania. Cursa Bacău – Catania şi retur se va opera în perioada 25 martie - 27 octombrie 2012. Zborurile sunt disponibile în zilele de marţi, joi şi sâmbătă. Până în prezent au fost introduse în orarul de vară 2012 următoarele destinaţii cu plecare din: Bucureşti către Barcelona, Madrid, Stuttgart, Bologna, Milano(Bergamo), Lisabona, Roma şi retur; Bacău către Bruxelles, Dublin, Londra şi retur; Sibiu către Stuttgart şi retur. Rezervă acum bilete cu preţuri începând de la 14.99 euro/segment (ofertă limitată) pe www.blueairweb.com, prin Call Center la 1499 sau la agenţiile partenere.

SkyTeam a lansat Round The World Planner\r\n\r\nAlianţa aeriană internaţională SkyTeam, din care face parte şi compania Tarom, a promovat pe piaţă o nouă aplicaţie automată Round the World Planner. Ea a fost proiectată pentru a permite pasagerilor să îşi creeze propriile itinerarii SkyTeam Round the World, folosind reţelele celor 14 companii aeriene membre.\r\n\r\n„Având la alegere sute de destinaţii, SkyTeam îşi poate transporta pasagerii oriunde şi oricând, în scop de afaceri sau relaxare. Noua aplicaţie a fost dezvoltată pentru a maximiza oportunităţile de călătorie în planificarea unui itinerariu Round the World” - a declarat Mauro Oretti, vicepreşedintele de vânzări şi marketing al SkyTeam.\r\n\r\nCele două versiuni ale aplicaţiei permit pasagerilor să-şi configureze programele de vacanţă personalizate în funcţie de ofertele de bilete, termenii şi condiţiile SkyTeam Round the World. Pasagerii pot accesa aplicaţia de pe pagina de internet skyteam.com, actualizată recent, iar o versiune dedicată agenţiilor de turism poate fi vizualizată pe pagina de internet nou creată skyteam.biz. Următoarele etape ale aplicaţiei vor dezvolta posibilitatea de a verifica disponibilitatea zborurilor în timp real şi preţurile, precum şi pe cea de a rezerva online via SkyTeam.com.

Interlocutorul nostru e cunoscut în toată lumea pentru agenţia de turism online Ebookers.com (una dintre cele mai de succes din Europa). El a vândut afacerea în 2004 către grupul american Cendant. Figurează printre cei mai bogaţi 20 de antreprenori din Marea Britanie care şi-au clădit averea pe internet. Dinesh Dhamija dezvoltă diverse portofolii de proprietăţi, terenuri, e implicat pe piaţa serviciilor medicale şi de educaţie, în India şi Marea Britanie. Are o avere estimată la 100 de milioane de lire sterline (114 milioane de euro). O parte din ea a fost investită în 600 de hectare din România, cumpărate în perioada 2005-2008. În afară de afacerile imobiliare Dhamija este implicat şi în industria turistică autohtonă. Când a fost atras de oportunităţile româneşti? După numirea cumnatului său, Excelenţa Sa Ajai Malhotra, în funcţia de ambasador al Indiei la Bucureşti.\r\n- Aţi preluat Delta Nature Resort în urmă cu 4 ani. Complexul de 5 stele a fost şi rămâne o premieră în zona Deltei Dunării. Ce v-a determinat să vă implicaţi în dezvoltarea şi operarea unui concept hotelier eco turistic de lux ?
\r\n- Ceea ce m-a determinat să aleg locaţia este faptul că Delta Nature Resorts este un complex frumos, cu o privelişte fantastică. Are o panoramă de... 1 milion de dolari! Majoritatea oamenilor care vin aici au senzaţia că se află în savana africană, sau în America de Sud. Ceea ce noi încercăm să facem acum este să deschidem ochii publicului român, să îl atragem către această destinaţie. Să îl facem să înţeleagă că nu are nevoie să meargă până în Bulgaria, Turcia sau în cine ştie în ce altă ţară, când în România poate găsi tot ceea ce nici nu visează încă.
\r\n- În urma unei repoziţionări şi a unui proces de renovare de peste o jumătate de milion de euro ce s-a derulat anul trecut, Complexul dumneavoastră a revenit pe piaţa în primăvara lui 2011, cu o nouă imagine de confort. Un complex premium. Ce clientelă aşteptaţi?
\r\n- În principal vorbim de o nouă abordare. Anul trecut ne-am decis să deschidem complexul pentru sezonul de iarnă 2011. De aceea am izolat termic vilele premium, având în minte clienţii care practică vânătoarea şi pescuit. Dar în 15 august guvernul a intezis vânătoarea. Pescuitul încă este permis. Dar noi am făcut o investiţie de 250.000 euro numai pentru a îmbunătăţi confortul vilelor, o investiţie care astfel s-a dovedit inutilă. Am închis complexul în octombrie şi-l vom redeschide în aprilie. Să faci profit la cinci stele e foarte greu. Patru luni am fost zero pe zero, în perioada aprilie-mai am pierdut. Mai clar pierd bani în 8 luni şi câştig în 4. Am ajuns la un grad de ocupare de 33% dar până acum pot afirma că nu am făcut niciun profit. Investiţia am făcut-o însă gândindu-mă la viitor. În ceea de priveşte clientela, nu ne-am mai concentrat pe un anumit tip de turist. Organizăm nunţi, conferinţe, felurite întruniri. Oricine îşi poate permite, poate veni. Care ar fi motivul pentru a ţine la un preţ mare şi a avea o ocupare de 15%? Preţul trebuie gândit în aşa fel încât să îţi atragă cât mai multă clientelă şi să menţină un grad ridicat de ocupare. De exemplu, pentru anul viitor, lunile aprilie, octombrie şi noiembrie vom oferi un preţ de 40 euro de personă pe noapte, cu mic dejun inclus. Mai bine de atât chiar nu se poate.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Dhines-Dhamija-040.jpg\" "\\"Dhines")
- În urma cu 31 de ani deschideaţi prima agenţie de turism. Aţi construit un imperiu electronic prin agenţia de turism online ebookers (una dintre cele mai de succes din Europa). Vă tentează să vă implicaţi în acest domeniu şi în România, o piaţă foarte dinamică în ultimii ani?
\r\n- Obişnuiam să călătoresc mult către SUA. Iar acolo internetul era cam cu trei ani înainte faţă de Europa. Am cunoscut pe cineva care avea o asemenea agenţie de turism, la San Francisco, am văzut cum lucrează. Era interesant să nu trebuiască să ai agenţie la stradă, să nu trebuiască să răspunzi la telefon şi să vină rezervările peste noapte, în timp ce tu dormi. E nevoie de noroc. Eu am fost doar primul care a pus ideile cap la cap în Europa iar ceea ce s-a întâmplat.... Am deschis agenţia în 1980, împreună cu soţia mea, Tani, fostă stewardesă. Vânzările noastre au crescut de la 23 milioane dolari în 1999 la 1 miliard în 2004. Pur şi simplu. Nimeni nu se aştepta la asta. După cum ştiţi mi-am vândut agenţia în 2005. Nu cred că aş putea apărea pe piaţa competiţională a agenţiilor de turism mai repede de 10 ani. Iar eu, după 2015, nu voi mai avea nicio dorinţă de a mă lua la întrecere cu nimeni.
\r\n- Sunteţi cunoscut ca un important investitor în terenuri în România şi un dezvoltator imobiliar prin compania Copper Beech. După ce aţi explorat mai multe posibilităţi, în ce zone aţi dori să vă implicaţi în postura de investitor în turism?
\r\n- Am un teren de 12,5 hectare în Suceviţa, cu vedere către mănăstire. Deţin vechiul hotel Speranţa din Borsec, iar un alt vis este că creez un complex de golf în Puchenii Mari, cu ieşire din DN 1. Da, în toate aceste locuri vreau să fac câte un hotel. Dar asta depinde de cât de viabile din punct de vedere financiar vor fi planurile la care lucrăm.
\r\n- Consideraţi că România ar putea devenii interesantă şi ca destinaţie turistică pentru jucătorii de golf?
\r\n- Aici, cred, că nu s-a văzut oportunitatea. Cum vă explicaţi că într-o ţară de 22 milioane de locuitori nu există un teren de golf adevărat, pentru competiţii, cu 18 găuri? Bucureştiul e capitală şi nu are un teren de golf.
\r\n- Ce credeţi că lipseşte României actuale pentru a deveni o destinaţie mai atractivă din punct de vedere economic şi, fireşte, turistic ?
\r\n- În mod sigur golful. Cei mai bogaţi oameni din lume cheltuiesc cei mai mulţi bani făcând turism pentru a juca golf. Şi românii pleacă vinerea din Bucureşti şi se duc să joace golf la Varna, unde există trei asemenea terenuri, la Paris sau cine mai ştie pe unde. De ce să nu rămână aici? Am investit 7 milioane de euro într-o bucată de pământ de 150 hectare, în Puchenii Mari. În ultimii ani piaţa financiară, bancară, a fost destul de nesigură. Vom începe atunci când piaţa se va calma, se va stabiliza.
\r\n\r\n- Aţi afirmat de mai multe ori că în afaceri trebuie sa te mişti repede. În investiţiile hoteliere nimeni nu e un lup singuratic. Vă preocupă să atrageţi spre România, branduri străine prestigioase, spre exemplu din Marea Britanie, şi de ce nu, din India?
\r\n- Nu am nicio problemă în a le aduce dar asta depinde de contracte, de ambele părţi. Nu sunt un hotelier dar ştiu că proprietăţile conduse adecvat aduc bani.
\r\n- Sunteţi interesat de zone româneşti ce figurează în patrimoniul UNESCO. Credeţi că acesta ar putea fi un drum profitabil pentru investitori ?
\r\n- Da, sunt interesat de acest subiect. Ştiu că turiştii sunt mai degrabă tentaţi să viziteze un obiectiv din patrimoniul UNESCO decât unul care nu figurează pe listă. E o idee bună să te poziţionezi în asemenea zone. Dar nu e vorba de o oportunitate extraordinară, ci doar de o oportunitate. Sunt şi alţii care au construit hoteluri în astfel de locaţii, dar nu o duc prea bine. Cred că e vorba în general de un marketing nepotrivit. Nu spun că eu sunt un mare specialist în asta, dar voi încerca ceva mai bun.

Suntem întotdeauna suporterii oricăror idei şi acţiuni, care aduc o valoare în plus promovării turistice. Cu atât mai mult cu cât ele sunt iniţiate de asociaţii ori companii private. Una dintre acestea a fost pusă în operă de Asociaţia Force Turism cu ocazia lansării revistei-catalog Force Turism – ediţia Tulcea. La vizita de documentare, ce a avut ca partener pe InfoTravelRomania, au fost invitaţi travel agenţi, reprezentanţi ai media de specialitate şi ai unor ministere implicate în noul proiect dezvoltat de Beatrice Chiriac, director general al Asociaţiei.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Delta-force-048.jpg\" "\\"Delta")
Revista, promovată în versiunile româno-engleză lansează în cele 120 de pagini full color, format A4, noi proiecţii despre majoritatea atracţiilor, cunoscute sau mai puţin cunoscute ale judeţului, atipice şi unice. Câteva secvenţe ale acestui infotrip, în rândurile de mai jos.
O NOUĂ SIGLĂ ŞI O NOUĂ VIZIUNE. O primă şarjă de informaţii a fost oferită la complexul Delta Nature Resort în cadrul întâlnirii cu presa. Nicolae Chichi, vicepreşedinte la Consiliul Judeţean Tulcea a punctat câteva repere din noua identitate culturală a Deltei, care beneficiază şi de o siglă distinctă de promovare. Un prim pas care a fost urmat de proiectele de dezvoltare din cadrul strategiei Dunării, un program ce include 14 state dunărene, România şi Austria fiind doi promotori ai acestuia. Oficialul tulcean a arătat, printre altele, că Ţările Dunărene şi-au propus să deruleze proiecte comune care să creeze valoare adăugată actului turistic. În plus, se află în mişcare programe transfrontaliere semnate între România şi Bulgaria.
\r\nCa urmare Tulcea s-a mişcat rapid progresând în domeniu infrastructurii navale, a![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Delta-force-059.jpg\" "\\"Delta")
miniporturilor turistice şi a infrastructurii rutiere, care să permită un mai bun acces către atracţiile culturale, naturale şi istorice. Deja, primul mini-port a fost inaugurat la Sfântu Gheorghe, celelalte urmând să fie deschise la Sulina şi Murighiol. Deci nu e de mirare că Tulcea ca zonă, este din ce în ce mai căutată de către navele de croaziere fluviale, dar şi de tuorperatori din Turcia, Georgia, Bulgaria etc.\r\nCEASURILE SE REGLEAZĂ DUPĂ PULSUL HOTELIERILOR. Trebuie să spunem că oraşul ca atare a ieşit din amorţire şi acest lucru este vizibil dacă urmăreşti investiţiile hoteliere.

Aici Maria Apolon, administratorul locaţiei, ne-a prezentat noile investiţii şi strategia cu care vor fi abordaţi anul viitor clienţii ce vor veni în vacanţe aici.

Primul deţine 234 de locuri, celălalt 188 în camere single, duble, deluxe şi apartamente. Omul este optimist din fire pentru că: „Anul trecut a fost atât de prost încât ne-am gândit la un moment dat să vindem. Cui, nu prea ştiam!

În acest sezon ne-am scos pârleala pentru 2010 care a fost un dezastru. Gradul de ocupare de peste 90%, ne este asigurat de agenţiile de turism, operatorii de croaziere, de afacerile din portul oraşului, evenimente etc. Mai avem avantajul că asigurăm direct, cu mijloace proprii, excursii în Delta Dunării, cu vase de capacitate mare, elegante, dotate cu restaurant şi bar”.\r\n\r\nAcum e mai relaxat, aşa că are timp şi să ne spună gluma despre cel mai plăcut coşmar al hotelierului. El este... „să audă în fiecare zi cum se ciocnesc valizele turiştilor care vin cu ale celor care pleacă!” Asta îşi doreşte şi familia Gheorghe şi Mihai Puflene. Primul deţine hotelul Esplanada (de 4 stele) şi ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Delta-force-236.jpg\" "\\"Delta")
complexul Esplanada Parc (săli de conferinţe, spaţii de cazare la etajul 1 şi o bucătărie impecabil dotată), o bijuterile de construcţie care se bucură de mare succes. Şi la el 2011 a urcat în încasări şi anunţă un an viitor cel puţin rezonabil în evenimente sociale şi turistice. La rândul său Mihai, directorul hotelului Rex din Tulcea, a fost încântat să ne prezinte viitorul Puflene Resort, aflat în fază de şantier. Acesta va schimba fundamental înfăţişarea localităţii Murighiol nu numai sub aspectul locurilor de muncă. Va fi gata anul viitor, dacă şi timpul şi finanţarea vor lucra favorabil. Atunci va promova pe piaţa locală 300 de locuri de cazare, 5 săli de conferinţă, un casinou, Centre Spa şi de Fitness, piscină la dimensiuni olimpice, terenuri de tenis şi fotbal, resturante şi baruri.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/delta-force-sef-barci-cu-motor.jpg\" "\\"delta")
CARE E BĂTAIA PEŞTELUI ÎN DELTA DUNĂRII! O croazieră pe canalele Deltei cu mai multe stopuri şi cazări ne-a arătat cât de greu este să navigezi în ape foarte scăzute dar cât de plăcut este să faci turism atunci când te pricepi la acest lucru. „Ghidul” nostru ocazional este chiar inginer piscicol. Dar Cristina Dinu, directorul Institutului de Cercetări Eco-Muzeale Tulcea (ICEM) s-a dovedit a fi mai mult decât o gazdă colocvială. Mai întâi trebuie să vă spunem că nu aţi înţeles nimic din Tulcea dacă nu aţi vizitat Centrul muzeal eco-turistic. S-a construit pe baza unui proiect transfrontalier, finanţat din bani europeni şi s-a deschis în urmă cu doi ani. Conceptul muzeal reuneşte o colecţie fabuloasă şi un Acvariu, unul dintre cele mai moderne din Europa. Deţine peste 69.000 de bunuri ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/delta-force-fata.jpg\" "\\"delta")
culturale, cele mai vechi piese datând din 1950, de la bogata floră şi faună pînă la speciile care trăiesc în zona deltaică şi a Mării Negre. „Mesajul suprem este Descoperă, iubeşte şi protejează Delta Dunării!” Chiar la intrarea în muzeu se află expus trofeul Mărul de aur (Golden Apple), decernat în urmă cu doi ani Rezervaţiei Delta Dunării, de către FIJET, pe baza propunerilor Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET România. Este una dintre cele 4 distincţii adjudecate de ţara noastră.\r\n\r\nÎn maratonul nostru am vizitat şi inspectat Complexul turistic Mila 35 – modernizat - construit stil eco cu foarte multe structuri de lemn -, piscină, terenuri de tenis, restaurant cu 120 de locuri, sală de conferinţe cu 60 de locuri, iaz pentru pescuit etc. Pensiunea Cherhana din satul Crişan, aşezată la intersecţia Canalului Sulina cu Canalul Caraorman, e promovată ca singura existentă din Crişan şi una dintre puţinele din Delta Dunării cu clasificare de 5 stele. Complex tip resort, cu vile independente şi un corp central pentru activităţi recreative şi conferinţe. Mai lipsesc facilităţile pentru agrement în aer liber, terenurile de sport, de joacă pentru copii etc.\r\n\r\nO notă maximă pentru ospitalitate am dat pensiunii Eden de la Crişan. Pe deplin meritate cele 4 stele pentru dotările de cazare (10 camere şi 2 apartamente, în total 24 de locuri) dar şi pentru gastronomia locală, pe bază, cum altfel decât de peşte, „administrată” de către Ileana Vasilief. Aceeaşi menţiune şi pentru pensiunea Lotus din Nufăru, o zonă ca la începutul lumii, cu oameni încă timizi în a primi turişti. Investiţia făcută din fonduri europene ca şi bucătăria casei arată că banii au meritat alocaţi iar acum merită cheltuiţi de turişti. Aveţi pe ce! Progrese s-au făcut şi în transportul pe apă. Mucalit de felul său Nicu Bulea, cel care administrează parcul de nave rapide prin firma Prodcon Antreprenor General, e mândru că poate oferi servicii de calitate turiştilor care vin şi vor veni, are el certitudinea, ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Delta-Tulcea-3.jpg\" "\\"Delta")

Ce reprezintă FIJET ? Federaţia Internaţională a Jurnaliştilor şi Editorilor de Turism (World Federation of Tourism Journalists and Writers)., cea mai veche asociaţie din această breaslă. A luat fiinţă în 1954, la Paris ca organizaţie non-profit, şi aşa a rămas până azi când din ea fac parte peste 800 de membrii, ce activează în 40 de ţări, prin asociaţii de sine stătătoare, ce reprezintă filiale ale FIJET.\r\n\r\nUN CONGRES NUMIT DORINŢĂ. România a dispărut de pe această piaţă în urmă cu aproape 15 ani, datorită şi faptului că asociaţia care o reprezenta s-a uzat moral şi fizic. Cu mai bine de 3 ani în urmă s-a înfiinţat la Bucureşti, prin voinţa liberă a peste 20 de ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Fijet-Suc-0301.jpg\" "\\"Fijet")
membrii fondatori Clubul Presei de Turism. Acesta a reuşit, în foarte scurt timp, să readucă preocupările de breaslă în atenţia unor organizaţii internaţionale. În 2008 se reînoadă o tradiţia. Clubul devine membru cu drepturi depline al FIJET, reprezentând România. Foarte, activi, editorii şi scriitorii români - conduşi de Victor Rădulescu -, au reuşit să aducă la Bucureşti trei evenimente: O sesiune de lucrări a Consiliului Director, prilej cu care au fost inspectate mai multe destinaţii turistice de top; Stabilirea şi decernarea a 3 trofee Golden Apple (Pomme D’or), ce au revenit Zonei Mărginimea Sibiului, Rezervaţiei Biosferei Delta Dunării şi companiei aeriene Blue Air (2009) şi, în septembrie, Organizarea celui de-al 53-lea Congres Internaţional FIJET, la Palatul Parlamentului.\r\n\r\nPrecizările sunt necesare pentru că presa generalistă a amestecat rău de tot borcanele speculând din diverse unghiuri politice, dar mai ales dintr-o crasă necunoaştere, faptul că ministerul a cheltuit bani pe tot felul de bazaconii. Nu Ministerul Turismului a creat aceste evenimente ci Clubul Presei de Turism – FIJET România care a propus Ministerului Turismului un parteneriat agreat de finanţare şi promovare. În aceste activităţi s-au implicat administraţii regionale şi locale, organizaţii de promovare turistică şi, fireşte, o serie de firme private.\r\n\r\nLICITAŢII CA LA OLIMPIADE. Într-un asemenea montaj s-a desfăşurat pentru prima dată în România, a Congresul Internaţional al FIJET, a 53-a ediţie, congres care uzual cuprinde o scurtă sesiune de prezentări şi comunicări de profil de două zile. După care urmează circa 6-7 zile în care se realizează vizite de documentare şi familiarizare cu o serie de atracţii turistice (istorie, cultură, gastronomie, natură, tradiţii), reprezentative pentru ţara organizatoare. Tiparul e păstrat de decenii. Iar manifestarea este un foarte bun prilej de promovare şi publicitare a ţării gazdă. De aceea ţara unde urmează să fie organizat Congresul FIJET este licitată cu ani înainte, ca în cazul olimpiadelor ori campionatelor mondiale de fotbal. În ultimii 3 ani evenimentul a fost găzduit de Slovenia, China şi Turcia.\r\n\r\n30 DE ŢĂRI BAT FIERUL CÂT E CALD. Împărţit în două de vizitarea Palatului Parlamentului, al 53-lea Congres internaţional al FIJET a atras la Bucureşti reprezentanţi ai mass-media din 30 de ţări ale lumii. Tema principală sub care s-au desfăşurat lucrările a fost “Patrimoniul cultural mondial în presa de turism” (Explorează grădina Carpaţilor).\r\n\r\nPeste 200 de jurnalişti, editori şi invitaţi, din mai toate ţările Uniunii Europene inclusiv, fireşte din Romania, dar şi din Rusia, Ucraina, Turcia, Liban, Egipt, Tunisia, SUA, Canada, Panama, Mexic şi Venezuela, Liban, Bulgaria, Croaţia, Polonia, Italia, Belgia, Olanda, Spania, Slovacia au ascultat mai multe prezentări, cele ale ţării noastre fiind susţinute de profesorii Gabriela Ţigu (Scurtă istorie a presei de turism din România şi Puiu Nistoreanu (Cum îşi văd tinerii ţara în fotografii), de la catedra de turism a Academiei de Ştiinţe Economice din Bucureşti, membrii ai Clubului Presei de Turism din România. Interesante, cu elemente inedite, care au creat unghiuri noi de percepţie cele două comunicări au fost aplaudate ca la un spectacol de teatru. Aceleaşi aplauze de care s-au bucurat reprezentanţii Egiptului şi Republicii Panama, gazde ale următoarelor două congrese, s-au cuvenit şi Ministerului Turismului, care nu a valorificat ocazia de a-şi promova spoturile de promovare turistică a brandului de ţară.

\r\n\r\nBUCOVINA – CA UN MĂR DE AUR. Dacă ar fi să definesc într-un singur cuvânt ce m-a impresionat cel mai mult în Bucovina este – Tradiţia. Mai precis păstrarea într-o formă vie a tradiţiilor ne spunea un jurnalist din Rusia. Ea sintetizează toate cele 3 zile cât a durat „raliul” de documentare în judeţul Suceava. Pilotul şef şi ghidul-gazdă a fost Gheorghe Flutur, preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean. După ce a epuizat secvenţele oficiale, schimb de cadouri (de promovare, fireşte) cu Tijanni Hadad, preşedintele FIJET s-a trecut la lucruri grele care au dat savoarea de unicat a acestei fabuloase destinaţii. „Cred că Bucovina este România adevărată. Pentru că aceasta este ceea ce turiştii vor să vadă. Vor să vadă tradiţiile, locuri străvechi şi moştenirea culturală. Această parte a României ar trebui explorată, ar trebui promovată ca o nouă piaţă. Le voi spune prietenilor mei să vină aici, dar şi celorlalţi prin ceea ce vom scrie după această vizită. Vor fi foarte multe articole despre Bucovina” - spunea Tijani. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Fijet-Suc-0822.jpg\" "\\"Fijet")
\r\n\r\nGheorghe Flutur, care i-a declarat pe toţi participanţii la Congres „pelerini în Bucovina”, oferindu-le diploma aferentă, a primit la rândul său o plachetă specială din partea FIJET. El şi-a făcut o imagine interesantă în timpul întâlnirilor fireşti cu presa străină. „Unii mi-au spus că Bucovina se diferenţiază de celelalte zone prin tradiţii, cu totul şi cu totul aparte, prin gastronomia extraordinară, căldura oamenilor şi monumentele UNESCO care sunt unice. Alţi jurnalişti au declarat că această zonă a ţării seamănă foarte mult cu ceea ce şi-au imaginat a fi „Grădina din Carpaţi”. Au fost observaţii remarcabile cum că România înseamnă Bucovina şi Bucovina înseamnă România. Când au vorbit despre brandul de ţară, au spus că l-au identificat aici în judeţul Suceava, şi nu am decât să mă bucur.\r\n\r\nSunt mulţumit de impactul vizitei ziariştilor de turism, şi am convingerea că articolele publicate de aceştia vor fi un mare câştig pentru judeţul Suceava”. Flutur a mai declarat că efectele acestei vizite de documentare se vor regăsi în timp în creşterea numărului de turişti străini care vor vizita Bucovina. “Facem în permanenţă investiţii în promovare, dar acesta a fost un moment unic, în ultimele decenii. Nu primim în fiecare zi 200 de jurnalişti străini de turism. A fost un eveniment care ne-a onorat şi pe care l-am onorat ca atare” – a mai precizat preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean Suceava.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Fijet-Suc-1221.jpg\" "\\"Fijet")
PARCĂ NE-AM AFLAT ÎN ALTĂ LUME. Georges Younes şi Amale Gorra, doi reprezentanţi ai delegaţiei Libanului au rămas şi ei încântaţi: “Este un succes iar ceea ce am vizitat a fost minunat. Fiecare oraş, fiecare sat, fiecare loc ne-a transmis căldura oamenilor. Pâinea cu sare şi produsele tradiţionale ne-au vorbit despre talentul bucovinenilor de a-şi păstra naturaleţea. Mulţumirile noastre se adresează muncii membrilor FIJET România şi organismelor locale care au dorit să ne ofere cât mai mult într-un timp relativ scurt. Voi recomanda ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Fijet-Suc-1951.jpg\" "\\"Fijet")
tuturor prietenilor mei din Liban să viziteze România dacă doresc să trăiască o experienţă excepţională, unică, pe care n-au întâlnit-o niciodată”. Amale Gorra spune: “Peste tot am fost primiţi cu muzică şi dans. Realmente am avut senzaţia că ne aflăm în altă lume, lipsită de tensiuni. Recomandarea mea este să ajungi aici pentru că o să adori această ţară. Moldova şi Transilvania sunt nişte regiuni în care timpul parcă s-a oprit în loc şi sper că părţi din ele vor rămâne aşa. A fost un excepţional congres prin oamenii pe care i-am întâlnit!”\r\n\r\nO PORŢIE DE AVENTURĂ, DURĂ, DURĂ. Despre asta vor vorbi mai bine sutele de ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Fijet-Suc-2261.jpg\" "\\"Fijet")
mii de fotografii care au fost făcute la faţa locului. Două felii mari de aventură ne-au fost oferite cu aceeaşi generozitate tot din platoul cu „bucăţi turistice din Bucovina”. Prima a fost pusă la cale de plimbarea cu mocăniţa, tren pe linie îngustă, pe o lungime de peste 18 kilometri. Se mai numeşte şi Huţulca de la Moldoviţa iar investiţiile făcute de români şi austrieci, aduc beneficii turistice. Proiectul de reabilitare a acestei atracţii, de la locomotive şi vagoane, până la linia ferată care prin 2009 nu era funcţională decât cam un kilometru, a fost susţinut de Asociaţia „Calea Ferată Îngustă.” La întoarcere invitaţii au fost „transferaţi” în 30 de căruţe cu care au mers circa 10 kilometri spre Mănăstire Moldoviţa din ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Fijet-Suc-2291.jpg\" "\\"Fijet")
comuna Vatra Moldoviţei, unde au fost aşteptaţi de primarul Virgil Şaghin. \r\n\r\nDar cea mai dură aventură a fost cea trăită cu plutaşii pe Bistriţa aurie. Am plecat din Ciocăneşti cu mai multe plute. Cum apa era foarte scăzută, cu toate eforturile localnicilor de a amenaja un stăvilar temporar am rămas blocaţi de mai multe ori în diverse praguri ale râului. Salvarea a venit din partea tractoarelor, cândva fabricate în România, marca Universal 650, care după ce se opinteau la greu, de am crezut că o să se dezmembreze în zeci de bucăţi, au reuşit cu succes să ne scoată de fiecare dată din blocaje. Ce industria constructoare de maşini aveam cândva? În final, am legat toate plutele, şi am fost remorcaţi, dacă se poate spune aşa, până la staţia de... sosire. Colegii noştri străini au crezut că toate întâmplările au fost calculate. Când le-am relatat că nimic din ce au trăit nu face parte din program au savurat şi mai mult aventura pe care tocmai o terminaseră.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Fijet-Suc-2531.jpg\" "\\"Fijet")
CULTURĂ ŞI ISTORIE, ÎNPĂNATE.... CU GASTRONOMIE. Cum arată alte secvenţe ale vizitei în Bucovina? Tradiţii, care surprinzător nu au plictisit pe nimeni. E şi normal. Au fost atât de diverse încât de abia ai putut să le absorbi pe toate. Să amintim de triunghiul mănăstirilor, catedrale sprijinite în cer de pictori de frumos. Sub lumina superbă a zilelor de toamnă o parte din patrimoniul UNESCO ce-l deţine România – ne referim la Voroneţ, Moldoviţa şi Suceviţa -, au strălucit în faţa invitaţilor. Se vede că sunt locuri cu mare circulaţie turistică, maicile fiind nu numai păstrătoare a tradiţiei ci şi foarte buni vectori de comunicare şi gazde în ale gastronomiei. La Moldoviţa a avut loc o întâlnire de gradul zero între Alexandru Crăiuţ, cel care era primarul comunei în 1975, şi Miguel Angel Brera (preşedinte de onoare al FIJET), cel care i-a înmânat atunci primul “Măr de aur”, decernat Mănăstirilor din ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Fijet-Suc-2571.jpg\" "\\"Fijet")
Bucovina. Oamenii locului cunosc valoarea trofeului. Ca urmare ei l-au închis într-un perete, sub un grilaj, ferecat cu lacăte trainice. Amuzantă a fost prezentarea măicuţei de la Mănăstirea Moldoviţa, care ne-a terorizat cu interdicţiile de a ne fotografia cu “Trofeul pe care ni l-a adus un jurnalist spaniol care conducea organizaţia FIJET, pe acea vreme parte din UNESCO”. Acel domn se afla chiar în faţa ei.\r\n\r\nPeste măsură de buni sunt membrii ansambului “Ciprian Porumbescu”. La fel de talentaţi la muzică şi la dans. Dacă nu aţi ajuns să îi ascultaţi live atunci căutaţi CD-urile lor pentru a va familiariza cât de cât. Două sesiuni artistice – La Capu Câmpului şi la Popasul Turistic Bucovina – ne-au convins că locurile îşi caută generaţiile tinere care să transmită mai departe o multiculturalitate fantastică. Dansurile tradiţionale moldoveneşti s-au îmbinat cu tradiţii austriece, poloneze, evreieşti, ruseşti, ucrainene etc. De altfel, rapsozii bucovineni i-au impresionat pe musafiri, artiştii din Suceava ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Fijet-Suc-2621.jpg\" "\\"Fijet")
primind deja invitaţii să cânte în ţări precum Tunisia sau Liban.Un regal. Ca şi cel gastronomic care s-a produs de cel puţin două ori pe zi ad-hoc, vorba vine, sau în locuri special amenajate la Capu Câmpului, Moldoviţa ori Ciocăneşti ultima noastră oprire în Bucovina.\r\n\r\nSatul viu, cum are ambiţia de a-l promova Gheorghe Tomoioagă, primarul comunei şi în acelaşi timp un poet profund, a fost prezent într-o “Poiană a meşteşugarilor”, prin ştanduri cu produse tradiţionale, de la brânzeturi până la cârnaţi şi viţei puşi la proţap, slănină afumată ad-hoc şi udată cu ceva ţuică, trainic păzită de... ciobăneştii româneşti. De aici ne îndreptăm spre Transilvania.

\nSuntem întotdeauna suporterii oricăror idei şi acţiuni, care aduc o valoare în plus promovării turistice. Cu atât mai mult cu cât ele sunt iniţiate de asociaţii ori companii private. Una dintre acestea a fost pusă în operă de Asociaţia Force Turism cu ocazia lansării revistei-catalog Force Turism – ediţia Tulcea. La vizita de documentare, ce a avut ca partener pe InfoTravelRomania, au fost invitaţi travel agenţi, reprezentanţi ai media de specialitate şi ai unor ministere implicate în noul proiect dezvoltat de Beatrice Chiriac, director general al Asociaţiei. Revista, promovată în versiunile româno-engleză lansează în cele 120 de pagini full color, format A4, noi proiecţii despre majoritatea atracţiilor, cunoscute sau mai puţin cunoscute ale judeţului, atipice şi unice. Câteva secvenţe ale acestui infotrip, în rândurile de mai jos.
O NOUĂ SIGLĂ ŞI O NOUĂ VIZIUNE. O primă şarjă de informaţii a fost oferită la complexul Delta Nature Resort în cadrul întâlnirii cu presa. Nicolae Chichi, vicepreşedinte la Consiliul Judeţean Tulcea a punctat câteva repere din noua identitate culturală a Deltei, care beneficiază şi de o siglă distinctă de promovare. Un prim pas care a fost urmat de proiectele de dezvoltare din cadrul strategiei Dunării, un program ce include 14 state dunărene, România şi Austria fiind doi promotori ai acestuia. Oficialul tulcean a arătat, printre altele, că Ţările Dunărene şi-au propus să deruleze proiecte comune care să creeze valoare adăugată actului turistic. În plus, se află în mişcare programe transfrontaliere semnate între România şi Bulgaria.
\nCa urmare Tulcea s-a mişcat rapid progresând în domeniu infrastructurii navale, aminiporturilor turistice şi a infrastructurii rutiere, care să permită un mai bun acces către atracţiile culturale, naturale şi istorice. Deja, primul mini-port a fost inaugurat la Sfântu Gheorghe, celelalte urmând să fie deschise la Sulina şi Murighiol. Deci nu e de mirare că Tulcea ca zonă, este din ce în ce mai căutată de către navele de croaziere fluviale, dar şi de tuorperatori din Turcia, Georgia, Bulgaria etc.\nCEASURILE SE REGLEAZĂ DUPĂ PULSUL HOTELIERILOR. Trebuie să spunem că oraşul ca atare a ieşit din amorţire şi acest lucru este vizibil dacă urmăreşti investiţiile hoteliere. Prima oprire a fost la Delta Nature Resort, primul complex de 5 stele apărut în Delta Dunării. Se află în apropierea Tulcei. Aici Maria Apolon, administratorul locaţiei, ne-a prezentat noile investiţii şi strategia cu care vor fi abordaţi anul viitor clienţii ce vor veni în vacanţe aici. O degustare de vinuri de Măcin, ne-a adus aminte de savuroasele arome din podgoria Sarica Niculiţel.\nChiar dacă anul trecut a fost horor pentru hotelierii din Tulcea investiţiile nu au stagnat. Şi bine au făcut oamenii de afaceri pentru că pe vremuri de criză trebuie să rişti. Hristu Caraman, o legendă vie a acestor locuri patronează Complexul Delta, cu două hoteluri de 3 şi respectiv 4 stele. Primul deţine 234 de locuri, celălalt 188 în camere single, duble, deluxe şi apartamente. Omul este optimist din fire pentru că: „Anul trecut a fost atât de prost încât ne-am gândit la un moment dat să vindem. Cui, nu prea ştiam!
În acest sezon ne-am scos pârleala pentru 2010 care a fost un dezastru. Gradul de ocupare de peste 90%, ne este asigurat de agenţiile de turism, operatorii de croaziere, de afacerile din portul oraşului, evenimente etc. Mai avem avantajul că asigurăm direct, cu mijloace proprii, excursii în Delta Dunării, cu vase de capacitate mare, elegante, dotate cu restaurant şi bar”.\n\nAcum e mai relaxat, aşa că are timp şi să ne spună gluma despre cel mai plăcut coşmar al hotelierului. El este... „să audă în fiecare zi cum se ciocnesc valizele turiştilor care vin cu ale celor care pleacă!” Asta îşi doreşte şi familia Gheorghe şi Mihai Puflene. Primul deţine hotelul Esplanada (de 4 stele) şi complexul Esplanada Parc (săli de conferinţe, spaţii de cazare la etajul 1 şi o bucătărie impecabil dotată), o bijuterile de construcţie care se bucură de mare succes. Şi la el 2011 a urcat în încasări şi anunţă un an viitor cel puţin rezonabil în evenimente sociale şi turistice. La rândul său Mihai, directorul hotelului Rex din Tulcea, a fost încântat să ne prezinte viitorul Puflene Resort, aflat în fază de şantier. Acesta va schimba fundamental înfăţişarea localităţii Murighiol nu numai sub aspectul locurilor de muncă. Va fi gata anul viitor, dacă şi timpul şi finanţarea vor lucra favorabil. Atunci va promova pe piaţa locală 300 de locuri de cazare, 5 săli de conferinţă, un casinou, Centre Spa şi de Fitness, piscină la dimensiuni olimpice, terenuri de tenis şi fotbal, resturante şi baruri.\n\nCARE E BĂTAIA PEŞTELUI ÎN DELTA DUNĂRII! O croazieră pe canalele Deltei cu mai multe stopuri şi cazări ne-a arătat cât de greu este să navigezi în ape foarte scăzute dar cât de plăcut este să faci turism atunci când te pricepi la acest lucru. „Ghidul” nostru ocazional este chiar inginer piscicol. Dar Cristina Dinu, directorul Institutului de Cercetări Eco-Muzeale Tulcea (ICEM) s-a dovedit a fi mai mult decât o gazdă colocvială. Mai întâi trebuie să vă spunem că nu aţi înţeles nimic din Tulcea dacă nu aţi vizitat Centrul muzeal eco-turistic. S-a construit pe baza unui proiect transfrontalier, finanţat din bani europeni şi s-a deschis în urmă cu doi ani. Conceptul muzeal reuneşte o colecţie fabuloasă şi un Acvariu, unul dintre cele mai moderne din Europa. Deţine peste 69.000 de bunuri culturale, cele mai vechi piese datând din 1950, de la bogata floră şi faună pînă la speciile care trăiesc în zona deltaică şi a Mării Negre. „Mesajul suprem este Descoperă, iubeşte şi protejează Delta Dunării!” Chiar la intrarea în muzeu se află expus trofeul Mărul de aur (Golden Apple), decernat în urmă cu doi ani Rezervaţiei Delta Dunării, de către FIJET, pe baza propunerilor Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET România. Este una dintre cele 4 distincţii adjudecate de ţara noastră.\n\nÎn maratonul nostru am vizitat şi inspectat Complexul turistic Mila 35 – modernizat - construit stil eco cu foarte multe structuri de lemn -, piscină, terenuri de tenis, restaurant cu 120 de locuri, sală de conferinţe cu 60 de locuri, iaz pentru pescuit etc. Pensiunea Cherhana din satul Crişan, aşezată la intersecţia Canalului Sulina cu Canalul Caraorman, e promovată ca singura existentă din Crişan şi una dintre puţinele din Delta Dunării cu clasificare de 5 stele. Complex tip resort, cu vile independente şi un corp central pentru activităţi recreative şi conferinţe. Mai lipsesc facilităţile pentru agrement în aer liber, terenurile de sport, de joacă pentru copii etc.\n\nO notă maximă pentru ospitalitate am dat pensiunii Eden de la Crişan. Pe deplin meritate cele 4 stele pentru dotările de cazare (10 camere şi 2 apartamente, în total 24 de locuri) dar şi pentru gastronomia locală, pe bază, cum altfel decât de peşte, „administrată” de către Ileana Vasilief. Aceeaşi menţiune şi pentru pensiunea Lotus din Nufăru, o zonă ca la începutul lumii, cu oameni încă timizi în a primi turişti. Investiţia făcută din fonduri europene ca şi bucătăria casei arată că banii au meritat alocaţi iar acum merită cheltuiţi de turişti. Aveţi pe ce! Progrese s-au făcut şi în transportul pe apă. Mucalit de felul său Nicu Bulea, cel care administrează parcul de nave rapide prin firma Prodcon Antreprenor General, e mândru că poate oferi servicii de calitate turiştilor care vin şi vor veni, are el certitudinea, din ce în ce mai mulţi în Delta Dunării „Operăm cu 6 nave rapide cu o capacitate cuprinsă între 54 şi 71 de locuri. Avem curse permanente între Tulcea şi Sulina, Sf. Gheorghe şi Chilia. Plus curse de sezon la cerere pe canalele navigabile ale Deltei”.\nDespre Sulina, fantoma turismului românesc care se va trezi foarte curând la viaţă şi alte noutăţi din Delta Dunării, în numărul viitor.\n\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\n.....................................................................................\n\nFIJET: Bucovina şi Transilvania şi-au pus ofertele pe masă (I) \n\nCe reprezintă FIJET ? Federaţia Internaţională a Jurnaliştilor şi Editorilor de Turism (World Federation of Tourism Journalists and Writers)., cea mai veche asociaţie din această breaslă. A luat fiinţă în 1954, la Paris ca organizaţie non-profit, şi aşa a rămas până azi când din ea fac parte peste 800 de membrii, ce activează în 40 de ţări, prin asociaţii de sine stătătoare, ce reprezintă filiale ale FIJET.\n\nUN CONGRES NUMIT DORINŢĂ. România a dispărut de pe această piaţă în urmă cu aproape 15 ani, datorită şi faptului că asociaţia care o reprezenta s-a uzat moral şi fizic. Cu mai bine de 3 ani în urmă s-a înfiinţat la Bucureşti, prin voinţa liberă a peste 20 de membrii fondatori Clubul Presei de Turism. Acesta a reuşit, în foarte scurt timp, să readucă preocupările de breaslă în atenţia unor organizaţii internaţionale. În 2008 se reînoadă o tradiţia. Clubul devine membru cu drepturi depline al FIJET, reprezentând România. Foarte, activi, editorii şi scriitorii români - conduşi de Victor Rădulescu -, au reuşit să aducă la Bucureşti trei evenimente: O sesiune de lucrări a Consiliului Director, prilej cu care au fost inspectate mai multe destinaţii turistice de top; Stabilirea şi decernarea a 3 trofee Golden Apple (Pomme D’or), ce au revenit Zonei Mărginimea Sibiului, Rezervaţiei Biosferei Delta Dunării şi companiei aeriene Blue Air (2009) şi, în septembrie, Organizarea celui de-al 53-lea Congres Internaţional FIJET, la Palatul Parlamentului.\n\nPrecizările sunt necesare pentru că presa generalistă a amestecat rău de tot borcanele speculând din diverse unghiuri politice, dar mai ales dintr-o crasă necunoaştere, faptul că ministerul a cheltuit bani pe tot felul de bazaconii. Nu Ministerul Turismului a creat aceste evenimente ci Clubul Presei de Turism – FIJET România care a propus Ministerului Turismului un parteneriat agreat de finanţare şi promovare. În aceste activităţi s-au implicat administraţii regionale şi locale, organizaţii de promovare turistică şi, fireşte, o serie de firme private.\n\nLICITAŢII CA LA OLIMPIADE. Într-un asemenea montaj s-a desfăşurat pentru prima dată în România, a Congresul Internaţional al FIJET, a 53-a ediţie, congres care uzual cuprinde o scurtă sesiune de prezentări şi comunicări de profil de două zile. După care urmează circa 6-7 zile în care se realizează vizite de documentare şi familiarizare cu o serie de atracţii turistice (istorie, cultură, gastronomie, natură, tradiţii), reprezentative pentru ţara organizatoare. Tiparul e păstrat de decenii. Iar manifestarea este un foarte bun prilej de promovare şi publicitare a ţării gazdă. De aceea ţara unde urmează să fie organizat Congresul FIJET este licitată cu ani înainte, ca în cazul olimpiadelor ori campionatelor mondiale de fotbal. În ultimii 3 ani evenimentul a fost găzduit de Slovenia, China şi Turcia.\n\n30 DE ŢĂRI BAT FIERUL CÂT E CALD. Împărţit în două de vizitarea Palatului Parlamentului, al 53-lea Congres internaţional al FIJET a atras la Bucureşti reprezentanţi ai mass-media din 30 de ţări ale lumii. Tema principală sub care s-au desfăşurat lucrările a fost “Patrimoniul cultural mondial în presa de turism” (Explorează grădina Carpaţilor).\n\nPeste 200 de jurnalişti, editori şi invitaţi, din mai toate ţările Uniunii Europene inclusiv, fireşte din Romania, dar şi din Rusia, Ucraina, Turcia, Liban, Egipt, Tunisia, SUA, Canada, Panama, Mexic şi Venezuela, Liban, Bulgaria, Croaţia, Polonia, Italia, Belgia, Olanda, Spania, Slovacia au ascultat mai multe prezentări, cele ale ţării noastre fiind susţinute de profesorii Gabriela Ţigu (Scurtă istorie a presei de turism din România şi Puiu Nistoreanu (Cum îşi văd tinerii ţara în fotografii), de la catedra de turism a Academiei de Ştiinţe Economice din Bucureşti, membrii ai Clubului Presei de Turism din România. Interesante, cu elemente inedite, care au creat unghiuri noi de percepţie cele două comunicări au fost aplaudate ca la un spectacol de teatru. Aceleaşi aplauze de care s-au bucurat reprezentanţii Egiptului şi Republicii Panama, gazde ale următoarelor două congrese, s-au cuvenit şi Ministerului Turismului, care nu a valorificat ocazia de a-şi promova spoturile de promovare turistică a brandului de ţară. Ei asta e. Nu poţi să le ai pe toate.\n\n\nBUCOVINA – CA UN MĂR DE AUR. Dacă ar fi să definesc într-un singur cuvânt ce m-a impresionat cel mai mult în Bucovina este – Tradiţia. Mai precis păstrarea într-o formă vie a tradiţiilor ne spunea un jurnalist din Rusia. Ea sintetizează toate cele 3 zile cât a durat „raliul” de documentare în judeţul Suceava. Pilotul şef şi ghidul-gazdă a fost Gheorghe Flutur, preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean. După ce a epuizat secvenţele oficiale, schimb de cadouri (de promovare, fireşte) cu Tijanni Hadad, preşedintele FIJET s-a trecut la lucruri grele care au dat savoarea de unicat a acestei fabuloase destinaţii. „Cred că Bucovina este România adevărată. Pentru că aceasta este ceea ce turiştii vor să vadă. Vor să vadă tradiţiile, locuri străvechi şi moştenirea culturală. Această parte a României ar trebui explorată, ar trebui promovată ca o nouă piaţă. Le voi spune prietenilor mei să vină aici, dar şi celorlalţi prin ceea ce vom scrie după această vizită. Vor fi foarte multe articole despre Bucovina” - spunea Tijani. \n\nGheorghe Flutur, care i-a declarat pe toţi participanţii la Congres „pelerini în Bucovina”, oferindu-le diploma aferentă, a primit la rândul său o plachetă specială din partea FIJET. El şi-a făcut o imagine interesantă în timpul întâlnirilor fireşti cu presa străină. „Unii mi-au spus că Bucovina se diferenţiază de celelalte zone prin tradiţii, cu totul şi cu totul aparte, prin gastronomia extraordinară, căldura oamenilor şi monumentele UNESCO care sunt unice. Alţi jurnalişti au declarat că această zonă a ţării seamănă foarte mult cu ceea ce şi-au imaginat a fi „Grădina din Carpaţi”. Au fost observaţii remarcabile cum că România înseamnă Bucovina şi Bucovina înseamnă România. Când au vorbit despre brandul de ţară, au spus că l-au identificat aici în judeţul Suceava, şi nu am decât să mă bucur.\n\nSunt mulţumit de impactul vizitei ziariştilor de turism, şi am convingerea că articolele publicate de aceştia vor fi un mare câştig pentru judeţul Suceava”. Flutur a mai declarat că efectele acestei vizite de documentare se vor regăsi în timp în creşterea numărului de turişti străini care vor vizita Bucovina. “Facem în permanenţă investiţii în promovare, dar acesta a fost un moment unic, în ultimele decenii. Nu primim în fiecare zi 200 de jurnalişti străini de turism. A fost un eveniment care ne-a onorat şi pe care l-am onorat ca atare” – a mai precizat preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean Suceava.\n\nPARCĂ NE-AM AFLAT ÎN ALTĂ LUME. Georges Younes şi Amale Gorra, doi reprezentanţi ai delegaţiei Libanului au rămas şi ei încântaţi: “Este un succes iar ceea ce am vizitat a fost minunat. Fiecare oraş, fiecare sat, fiecare loc ne-a transmis căldura oamenilor. Pâinea cu sare şi produsele tradiţionale ne-au vorbit despre talentul bucovinenilor de a-şi păstra naturaleţea. Mulţumirile noastre se adresează muncii membrilor FIJET România şi organismelor locale care au dorit să ne ofere cât mai mult într-un timp relativ scurt. Voi recomanda tuturor prietenilor mei din Liban să viziteze România dacă doresc să trăiască o experienţă excepţională, unică, pe care n-au întâlnit-o niciodată”. Amale Gorra spune: “Peste tot am fost primiţi cu muzică şi dans. Realmente am avut senzaţia că ne aflăm în altă lume, lipsită de tensiuni. Recomandarea mea este să ajungi aici pentru că o să adori această ţară. Moldova şi Transilvania sunt nişte regiuni în care timpul parcă s-a oprit în loc şi sper că părţi din ele vor rămâne aşa. A fost un excepţional congres prin oamenii pe care i-am întâlnit!”\n\nO PORŢIE DE AVENTURĂ, DURĂ, DURĂ. Despre asta vor vorbi mai bine sutele de mii de fotografii care au fost făcute la faţa locului. Două felii mari de aventură ne-au fost oferite cu aceeaşi generozitate tot din platoul cu „bucăţi turistice din Bucovina”. Prima a fost pusă la cale de plimbarea cu mocăniţa, tren pe linie îngustă, pe o lungime de peste 18 kilometri. Se mai numeşte şi Huţulca de la Moldoviţa iar investiţiile făcute de români şi austrieci, aduc beneficii turistice. Proiectul de reabilitare a acestei atracţii, de la locomotive şi vagoane, până la linia ferată care prin 2009 nu era funcţională decât cam un kilometru, a fost susţinut de Asociaţia „Calea Ferată Îngustă.” La întoarcere invitaţii au fost „transferaţi” în 30 de căruţe cu care au mers circa 10 kilometri spre Mănăstire Moldoviţa din comuna Vatra Moldoviţei, unde au fost aşteptaţi de primarul Virgil Şaghin. \n\nDar cea mai dură aventură a fost cea trăită cu plutaşii pe Bistriţa aurie. Am plecat din Ciocăneşti cu mai multe plute. Cum apa era foarte scăzută, cu toate eforturile localnicilor de a amenaja un stăvilar temporar am rămas blocaţi de mai multe ori în diverse praguri ale râului. Salvarea a venit din partea tractoarelor, cândva fabricate în România, marca Universal 650, care după ce se opinteau la greu, de am crezut că o să se dezmembreze în zeci de bucăţi, au reuşit cu succes să ne scoată de fiecare dată din blocaje. Ce industria constructoare de maşini aveam cândva? În final, am legat toate plutele, şi am fost remorcaţi, dacă se poate spune aşa, până la staţia de... sosire. Colegii noştri străini au crezut că toate întâmplările au fost calculate. Când le-am relatat că nimic din ce au trăit nu face parte din program au savurat şi mai mult aventura pe care tocmai o terminaseră.\n\nCULTURĂ ŞI ISTORIE, ÎNPĂNATE.... CU GASTRONOMIE. Cum arată alte secvenţe ale vizitei în Bucovina? Tradiţii, care surprinzător nu au plictisit pe nimeni. E şi normal. Au fost atât de diverse încât de abia ai putut să le absorbi pe toate. Să amintim de triunghiul mănăstirilor, catedrale sprijinite în cer de pictori de frumos. Sub lumina superbă a zilelor de toamnă o parte din patrimoniul UNESCO ce-l deţine România – ne referim la Voroneţ, Moldoviţa şi Suceviţa -, au strălucit în faţa invitaţilor. Se vede că sunt locuri cu mare circulaţie turistică, maicile fiind nu numai păstrătoare a tradiţiei ci şi foarte buni vectori de comunicare şi gazde în ale gastronomiei. La Moldoviţa a avut loc o întâlnire de gradul zero între Alexandru Crăiuţ, cel care era primarul comunei în 1975, şi Miguel Angel Brera (preşedinte de onoare al FIJET), cel care i-a înmânat atunci primul “Măr de aur”, decernat Mănăstirilor din Bucovina. Oamenii locului cunosc valoarea trofeului. Ca urmare ei l-au închis într-un perete, sub un grilaj, ferecat cu lacăte trainice. Amuzantă a fost prezentarea măicuţei de la Mănăstirea Moldoviţa, care ne-a terorizat cu interdicţiile de a ne fotografia cu “Trofeul pe care ni l-a adus un jurnalist spaniol care conducea organizaţia FIJET, pe acea vreme parte din UNESCO”. Acel domn se afla chiar în faţa ei.\n\nPeste măsură de buni sunt membrii ansambului “Ciprian Porumbescu”. La fel de talentaţi la muzică şi la dans. Dacă nu aţi ajuns să îi ascultaţi live atunci căutaţi CD-urile lor pentru a va familiariza cât de cât. Două sesiuni artistice – La Capu Câmpului şi la Popasul Turistic Bucovina – ne-au convins că locurile îşi caută generaţiile tinere care să transmită mai departe o multiculturalitate fantastică. Dansurile tradiţionale moldoveneşti s-au îmbinat cu tradiţii austriece, poloneze, evreieşti, ruseşti, ucrainene etc. De altfel, rapsozii bucovineni i-au impresionat pe musafiri, artiştii din Suceava primind deja invitaţii să cânte în ţări precum Tunisia sau Liban.Un regal. Ca şi cel gastronomic care s-a produs de cel puţin două ori pe zi ad-hoc, vorba vine, sau în locuri special amenajate la Capu Câmpului, Moldoviţa ori Ciocăneşti ultima noastră oprire în Bucovina.\n\nSatul viu, cum are ambiţia de a-l promova Gheorghe Tomoioagă, primarul comunei şi în acelaşi timp un poet profund, a fost prezent într-o “Poiană a meşteşugarilor”, prin ştanduri cu produse tradiţionale, de la brânzeturi până la cârnaţi şi viţei puşi la proţap, slănină afumată ad-hoc şi udată cu ceva ţuică, trainic păzită de... ciobăneştii româneşti. De aici ne îndreptăm spre Transilvania. Pe numărul viitor.\n\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU','Redescopera Delta Dunarii - rubrica Redescopera Romania octombrie 2011','','inherit','open','open','','716-autosave','','','2011-10-31 22:30:27','2011-10-31 20:30:27','',716,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/10/31/716-autosave/',0,'revision','',0),(719,1,'2011-10-31 22:05:50','2011-10-31 20:05:50','','Delta force 003','','inherit','open','open','','delta-force-003','','','2011-10-31 22:05:50','2011-10-31 20:05:50','',716,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Delta-force-003.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(720,1,'2011-10-31 22:06:01','2011-10-31 20:06:01','','Delta force 048','','inherit','open','open','','delta-force-048','','','2011-10-31 22:06:01','2011-10-31 20:06:01','',716,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Delta-force-048.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(721,1,'2011-10-31 22:06:13','2011-10-31 20:06:13','','Delta force 059','','inherit','open','open','','delta-force-059','','','2011-10-31 22:06:13','2011-10-31 20:06:13','',716,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Delta-force-059.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(722,1,'2011-10-31 22:06:25','2011-10-31 20:06:25','','Delta force 085','','inherit','open','open','','delta-force-085','','','2011-10-31 22:06:25','2011-10-31 20:06:25','',716,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Delta-force-085.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(723,1,'2011-10-31 22:06:39','2011-10-31 20:06:39','','Delta force 143','','inherit','open','open','','delta-force-143','','','2011-10-31 22:06:39','2011-10-31 20:06:39','',716,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Delta-force-143.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(724,1,'2011-10-31 22:06:52','2011-10-31 20:06:52','','Delta force 236','','inherit','open','open','','delta-force-236','','','2011-10-31 22:06:52','2011-10-31 20:06:52','',716,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Delta-force-236.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(725,1,'2011-10-31 22:07:02','2011-10-31 20:07:02','','delta force fata','','inherit','open','open','','delta-force-fata','','','2011-10-31 22:07:02','2011-10-31 20:07:02','',716,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/delta-force-fata.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(726,1,'2011-10-31 22:07:12','2011-10-31 20:07:12','','delta force sef barci cu motor','','inherit','open','open','','delta-force-sef-barci-cu-motor','','','2011-10-31 22:07:12','2011-10-31 20:07:12','',716,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/delta-force-sef-barci-cu-motor.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(727,1,'2011-10-31 22:07:25','2011-10-31 20:07:25','','Delta Tulcea 3','','inherit','open','open','','delta-tulcea-3','','','2011-10-31 22:07:25','2011-10-31 20:07:25','',716,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Delta-Tulcea-3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(728,1,'2011-10-31 22:07:35','2011-10-31 20:07:35','','deltaforce caraman','','inherit','open','open','','deltaforce-caraman','','','2011-10-31 22:07:35','2011-10-31 20:07:35','',716,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/deltaforce-caraman.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(729,1,'2011-10-31 22:04:07','2011-10-31 20:04:07','TULCEA – Toate pânzele sus ! (I)
\r\nSuntem întotdeauna suporterii oricăror idei şi acţiuni, care aduc o valoare în plus promovării turistice. Cu atât mai mult cu cât ele sunt iniţiate de asociaţii ori companii private. Una dintre acestea a fost pusă în operă de Asociaţia Force Turism cu ocazia lansării revistei-catalog Force Turism – ediţia Tulcea. La vizita de documentare, ce a avut ca partener pe InfoTravelRomania, au fost invitaţi travel agenţi, reprezentanţi ai media de specialitate şi ai unor ministere implicate în noul proiect dezvoltat de Beatrice Chiriac, director general al Asociaţiei. Revista, promovată în versiunile româno-engleză lansează în cele 120 de pagini full color, format A4, noi proiecţii despre majoritatea atracţiilor, cunoscute sau mai puţin cunoscute ale judeţului, atipice şi unice. Câteva secvenţe ale acestui infotrip, în rândurile de mai jos.
\r\n\r\nO NOUĂ SIGLĂ ŞI O NOUĂ VIZIUNE. O primă şarjă de informaţii a fost oferită la complexul Delta Nature Resort în cadrul întâlnirii cu presa. Nicolae Chichi, vicepreşedinte la Consiliul Judeţean Tulcea a punctat câteva repere din noua identitate culturală a Deltei, care beneficiază şi de o siglă distinctă de promovare. Un prim pas care a fost urmat de proiectele de dezvoltare din cadrul strategiei Dunării, un program ce include 14 state dunărene, România şi Austria fiind doi promotori ai acestuia. Oficialul tulcean a arătat, printre altele, că Ţările Dunărene şi-au propus să deruleze proiecte comune care să creeze valoare adăugată actului turistic. În plus, se află în mişcare programe transfrontaliere semnate între România şi Bulgaria.\r\n\r\nCa urmare Tulcea s-a mişcat rapid progresând în domeniu infrastructurii navale, a miniporturilor turistice şi a infrastructurii rutiere, care să permită un mai bun acces către atracţiile culturale, naturale şi istorice. Deja, primul mini-port a fost inaugurat la Sfântu Gheorghe, celelalte urmând să fie deschise la Sulina şi Murighiol. Deci nu e de mirare că Tulcea ca zonă, este din ce în ce mai căutată de către navele de croaziere fluviale, dar şi de tuorperatori din Turcia, Georgia, Bulgaria etc.
\r\nCEASURILE SE REGLEAZĂ DUPĂ PULSUL HOTELIERILOR. Trebuie să spunem că oraşul ca atare a ieşit din amorţire şi acest lucru este vizibil dacă urmăreşti investiţiile hoteliere. Prima oprire a fost la Delta Nature Resort, primul complex de 5 stele apărut în Delta Dunării. Se află în apropierea Tulcei. Aici Maria Apolon, administratorul locaţiei, ne-a prezentat noile investiţii şi strategia cu care vor fi abordaţi anul viitor clienţii ce vor veni în vacanţe aici. O degustare de vinuri de Măcin, ne-a adus aminte de savuroasele arome din podgoria Sarica Niculiţel.\r\nChiar dacă anul trecut a fost horor pentru hotelierii din Tulcea investiţiile nu au stagnat. Şi bine au făcut oamenii de afaceri pentru că pe vremuri de criză trebuie să rişti. Hristu Caraman, o legendă vie a acestor locuri patronează Complexul Delta, cu două hoteluri de 3 şi respectiv 4 stele. Primul deţine 234 de locuri, celălalt 188 în camere single, duble, deluxe şi apartamente. Omul este optimist din fire pentru că: „Anul trecut a fost atât de prost încât ne-am gândit la un moment dat să vindem. Cui, nu prea ştiam! În acest sezon ne-am scos pârleala pentru 2010 care a fost un dezastru. Gradul de ocupare de peste 90%, ne este asigurat de agenţiile de turism, operatorii de croaziere, de afacerile din portul oraşului, evenimente etc. Mai avem avantajul că asigurăm direct, cu mijloace proprii, excursii în Delta Dunării, cu vase de capacitate mare, elegante, dotate cu restaurant şi bar”.\r\n\r\nAcum e mai relaxat, aşa că are timp şi să ne spună gluma despre cel mai plăcut coşmar al hotelierului. El este... „să audă în fiecare zi cum se ciocnesc valizele turiştilor care vin cu ale celor care pleacă!” Asta îşi doreşte şi familia Gheorghe şi Mihai Puflene. Primul deţine hotelul Esplanada (de 4 stele) şi complexul Esplanada Parc (săli de conferinţe, spaţii de cazare la etajul 1 şi o bucătărie impecabil dotată), o bijuterile de construcţie care se bucură de mare succes. Şi la el 2011 a urcat în încasări şi anunţă un an viitor cel puţin rezonabil în evenimente sociale şi turistice. La rândul său Mihai, directorul hotelului Rex din Tulcea, a fost încântat să ne prezinte viitorul Puflene Resort, aflat în fază de şantier. Acesta va schimba fundamental înfăţişarea localităţii Murighiol nu numai sub aspectul locurilor de muncă. Va fi gata anul viitor, dacă şi timpul şi finanţarea vor lucra favorabil. Atunci va promova pe piaţa locală 300 de locuri de cazare, 5 săli de conferinţă, un casinou, Centre Spa şi de Fitness, piscină la dimensiuni olimpice, terenuri de tenis şi fotbal, resturante şi baruri.
\r\n\r\nCARE E BĂTAIA PEŞTELUI ÎN DELTA DUNĂRII! O croazieră pe canalele Deltei cu mai multe stopuri şi cazări ne-a arătat cât de greu este să navigezi în ape foarte scăzute dar cât de plăcut este să faci turism atunci când te pricepi la acest lucru. „Ghidul” nostru ocazional este chiar inginer piscicol. Dar Cristina Dinu, directorul Institutului de Cercetări Eco-Muzeale Tulcea (ICEM) s-a dovedit a fi mai mult decât o gazdă colocvială. Mai întâi trebuie să vă spunem că nu aţi înţeles nimic din Tulcea dacă nu aţi vizitat Centrul muzeal eco-turistic. S-a construit pe baza unui proiect transfrontalier, finanţat din bani europeni şi s-a deschis în urmă cu doi ani. Conceptul muzeal reuneşte o colecţie fabuloasă şi un Acvariu, unul dintre cele mai moderne din Europa. Deţine peste 69.000 de bunuri culturale, cele mai vechi piese datând din 1950, de la bogata floră şi faună pînă la speciile care trăiesc în zona deltaică şi a Mării Negre. „Mesajul suprem este Descoperă, iubeşte şi protejează Delta Dunării!” Chiar la intrarea în muzeu se află expus trofeul Mărul de aur (Golden Apple), decernat în urmă cu doi ani Rezervaţiei Delta Dunării, de către FIJET, pe baza propunerilor Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET România. Este una dintre cele 4 distincţii adjudecate de ţara noastră.\r\n\r\nÎn maratonul nostru am vizitat şi inspectat Complexul turistic Mila 35 – modernizat - construit stil eco cu foarte multe structuri de lemn -, piscină, terenuri de tenis, restaurant cu 120 de locuri, sală de conferinţe cu 60 de locuri, iaz pentru pescuit etc. Pensiunea Cherhana din satul Crişan, aşezată la intersecţia Canalului Sulina cu Canalul Caraorman, e promovată ca singura existentă din Crişan şi una dintre puţinele din Delta Dunării cu clasificare de 5 stele. Complex tip resort, cu vile independente şi un corp central pentru activităţi recreative şi conferinţe. Mai lipsesc facilităţile pentru agrement în aer liber, terenurile de sport, de joacă pentru copii etc.\r\n\r\nO notă maximă pentru ospitalitate am dat pensiunii Eden de la Crişan. Pe deplin meritate cele 4 stele pentru dotările de cazare (10 camere şi 2 apartamente, în total 24 de locuri) dar şi pentru gastronomia locală, pe bază, cum altfel decât de peşte, „administrată” de către Ileana Vasilief. Aceeaşi menţiune şi pentru pensiunea Lotus din Nufăru, o zonă ca la începutul lumii, cu oameni încă timizi în a primi turişti. Investiţia făcută din fonduri europene ca şi bucătăria casei arată că banii au meritat alocaţi iar acum merită cheltuiţi de turişti. Aveţi pe ce! Progrese s-au făcut şi în transportul pe apă. Mucalit de felul său Nicu Bulea, cel care administrează parcul de nave rapide prin firma Prodcon Antreprenor General, e mândru că poate oferi servicii de calitate turiştilor care vin şi vor veni, are el certitudinea, din ce în ce mai mulţi în Delta Dunării „Operăm cu 6 nave rapide cu o capacitate cuprinsă între 54 şi 71 de locuri. Avem curse permanente între Tulcea şi Sulina, Sf. Gheorghe şi Chilia. Plus curse de sezon la cerere pe canalele navigabile ale Deltei”.\r\nDespre Sulina, fantoma turismului românesc care se va trezi foarte curând la viaţă şi alte noutăţi din Delta Dunării, în numărul viitor.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n.....................................................................................\r\n\r\nFIJET: Bucovina şi Transilvania şi-au pus ofertele pe masă (I) \r\n\r\nCe reprezintă FIJET ? Federaţia Internaţională a Jurnaliştilor şi Editorilor de Turism (World Federation of Tourism Journalists and Writers)., cea mai veche asociaţie din această breaslă. A luat fiinţă în 1954, la Paris ca organizaţie non-profit, şi aşa a rămas până azi când din ea fac parte peste 800 de membrii, ce activează în 40 de ţări, prin asociaţii de sine stătătoare, ce reprezintă filiale ale FIJET.\r\n\r\nUN CONGRES NUMIT DORINŢĂ. România a dispărut de pe această piaţă în urmă cu aproape 15 ani, datorită şi faptului că asociaţia care o reprezenta s-a uzat moral şi fizic. Cu mai bine de 3 ani în urmă s-a înfiinţat la Bucureşti, prin voinţa liberă a peste 20 de membrii fondatori Clubul Presei de Turism. Acesta a reuşit, în foarte scurt timp, să readucă preocupările de breaslă în atenţia unor organizaţii internaţionale. În 2008 se reînoadă o tradiţia. Clubul devine membru cu drepturi depline al FIJET, reprezentând România. Foarte, activi, editorii şi scriitorii români - conduşi de Victor Rădulescu -, au reuşit să aducă la Bucureşti trei evenimente: O sesiune de lucrări a Consiliului Director, prilej cu care au fost inspectate mai multe destinaţii turistice de top; Stabilirea şi decernarea a 3 trofee Golden Apple (Pomme D’or), ce au revenit Zonei Mărginimea Sibiului, Rezervaţiei Biosferei Delta Dunării şi companiei aeriene Blue Air (2009) şi, în septembrie, Organizarea celui de-al 53-lea Congres Internaţional FIJET, la Palatul Parlamentului.\r\n\r\nPrecizările sunt necesare pentru că presa generalistă a amestecat rău de tot borcanele speculând din diverse unghiuri politice, dar mai ales dintr-o crasă necunoaştere, faptul că ministerul a cheltuit bani pe tot felul de bazaconii. Nu Ministerul Turismului a creat aceste evenimente ci Clubul Presei de Turism – FIJET România care a propus Ministerului Turismului un parteneriat agreat de finanţare şi promovare. În aceste activităţi s-au implicat administraţii regionale şi locale, organizaţii de promovare turistică şi, fireşte, o serie de firme private.\r\n\r\nLICITAŢII CA LA OLIMPIADE. Într-un asemenea montaj s-a desfăşurat pentru prima dată în România, a Congresul Internaţional al FIJET, a 53-a ediţie, congres care uzual cuprinde o scurtă sesiune de prezentări şi comunicări de profil de două zile. După care urmează circa 6-7 zile în care se realizează vizite de documentare şi familiarizare cu o serie de atracţii turistice (istorie, cultură, gastronomie, natură, tradiţii), reprezentative pentru ţara organizatoare. Tiparul e păstrat de decenii. Iar manifestarea este un foarte bun prilej de promovare şi publicitare a ţării gazdă. De aceea ţara unde urmează să fie organizat Congresul FIJET este licitată cu ani înainte, ca în cazul olimpiadelor ori campionatelor mondiale de fotbal. În ultimii 3 ani evenimentul a fost găzduit de Slovenia, China şi Turcia.\r\n\r\n30 DE ŢĂRI BAT FIERUL CÂT E CALD. Împărţit în două de vizitarea Palatului Parlamentului, al 53-lea Congres internaţional al FIJET a atras la Bucureşti reprezentanţi ai mass-media din 30 de ţări ale lumii. Tema principală sub care s-au desfăşurat lucrările a fost “Patrimoniul cultural mondial în presa de turism” (Explorează grădina Carpaţilor).\r\n\r\nPeste 200 de jurnalişti, editori şi invitaţi, din mai toate ţările Uniunii Europene inclusiv, fireşte din Romania, dar şi din Rusia, Ucraina, Turcia, Liban, Egipt, Tunisia, SUA, Canada, Panama, Mexic şi Venezuela, Liban, Bulgaria, Croaţia, Polonia, Italia, Belgia, Olanda, Spania, Slovacia au ascultat mai multe prezentări, cele ale ţării noastre fiind susţinute de profesorii Gabriela Ţigu (Scurtă istorie a presei de turism din România şi Puiu Nistoreanu (Cum îşi văd tinerii ţara în fotografii), de la catedra de turism a Academiei de Ştiinţe Economice din Bucureşti, membrii ai Clubului Presei de Turism din România. Interesante, cu elemente inedite, care au creat unghiuri noi de percepţie cele două comunicări au fost aplaudate ca la un spectacol de teatru. Aceleaşi aplauze de care s-au bucurat reprezentanţii Egiptului şi Republicii Panama, gazde ale următoarelor două congrese, s-au cuvenit şi Ministerului Turismului, care nu a valorificat ocazia de a-şi promova spoturile de promovare turistică a brandului de ţară. Ei asta e. Nu poţi să le ai pe toate.\r\n\r\nBUCOVINA – CA UN MĂR DE AUR. Dacă ar fi să definesc într-un singur cuvânt ce m-a impresionat cel mai mult în Bucovina este – Tradiţia. Mai precis păstrarea într-o formă vie a tradiţiilor ne spunea un jurnalist din Rusia. Ea sintetizează toate cele 3 zile cât a durat „raliul” de documentare în judeţul Suceava. Pilotul şef şi ghidul-gazdă a fost Gheorghe Flutur, preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean. După ce a epuizat secvenţele oficiale, schimb de cadouri (de promovare, fireşte) cu Tijanni Hadad, preşedintele FIJET s-a trecut la lucruri grele care au dat savoarea de unicat a acestei fabuloase destinaţii. „Cred că Bucovina este România adevărată. Pentru că aceasta este ceea ce turiştii vor să vadă. Vor să vadă tradiţiile, locuri străvechi şi moştenirea culturală. Această parte a României ar trebui explorată, ar trebui promovată ca o nouă piaţă. Le voi spune prietenilor mei să vină aici, dar şi celorlalţi prin ceea ce vom scrie după această vizită. Vor fi foarte multe articole despre Bucovina” - spunea Tijani. \r\n\r\nGheorghe Flutur, care i-a declarat pe toţi participanţii la Congres „pelerini în Bucovina”, oferindu-le diploma aferentă, a primit la rândul său o plachetă specială din partea FIJET. El şi-a făcut o imagine interesantă în timpul întâlnirilor fireşti cu presa străină. „Unii mi-au spus că Bucovina se diferenţiază de celelalte zone prin tradiţii, cu totul şi cu totul aparte, prin gastronomia extraordinară, căldura oamenilor şi monumentele UNESCO care sunt unice. Alţi jurnalişti au declarat că această zonă a ţării seamănă foarte mult cu ceea ce şi-au imaginat a fi „Grădina din Carpaţi”. Au fost observaţii remarcabile cum că România înseamnă Bucovina şi Bucovina înseamnă România. Când au vorbit despre brandul de ţară, au spus că l-au identificat aici în judeţul Suceava, şi nu am decât să mă bucur.\r\n\r\nSunt mulţumit de impactul vizitei ziariştilor de turism, şi am convingerea că articolele publicate de aceştia vor fi un mare câştig pentru judeţul Suceava”. Flutur a mai declarat că efectele acestei vizite de documentare se vor regăsi în timp în creşterea numărului de turişti străini care vor vizita Bucovina. “Facem în permanenţă investiţii în promovare, dar acesta a fost un moment unic, în ultimele decenii. Nu primim în fiecare zi 200 de jurnalişti străini de turism. A fost un eveniment care ne-a onorat şi pe care l-am onorat ca atare” – a mai precizat preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean Suceava.\r\n\r\nPARCĂ NE-AM AFLAT ÎN ALTĂ LUME. Georges Younes şi Amale Gorra, doi reprezentanţi ai delegaţiei Libanului au rămas şi ei încântaţi: “Este un succes iar ceea ce am vizitat a fost minunat. Fiecare oraş, fiecare sat, fiecare loc ne-a transmis căldura oamenilor. Pâinea cu sare şi produsele tradiţionale ne-au vorbit despre talentul bucovinenilor de a-şi păstra naturaleţea. Mulţumirile noastre se adresează muncii membrilor FIJET România şi organismelor locale care au dorit să ne ofere cât mai mult într-un timp relativ scurt. Voi recomanda tuturor prietenilor mei din Liban să viziteze România dacă doresc să trăiască o experienţă excepţională, unică, pe care n-au întâlnit-o niciodată”. Amale Gorra spune: “Peste tot am fost primiţi cu muzică şi dans. Realmente am avut senzaţia că ne aflăm în altă lume, lipsită de tensiuni. Recomandarea mea este să ajungi aici pentru că o să adori această ţară. Moldova şi Transilvania sunt nişte regiuni în care timpul parcă s-a oprit în loc şi sper că părţi din ele vor rămâne aşa. A fost un excepţional congres prin oamenii pe care i-am întâlnit!”\r\n\r\nO PORŢIE DE AVENTURĂ, DURĂ, DURĂ. Despre asta vor vorbi mai bine sutele de mii de fotografii care au fost făcute la faţa locului. Două felii mari de aventură ne-au fost oferite cu aceeaşi generozitate tot din platoul cu „bucăţi turistice din Bucovina”. Prima a fost pusă la cale de plimbarea cu mocăniţa, tren pe linie îngustă, pe o lungime de peste 18 kilometri. Se mai numeşte şi Huţulca de la Moldoviţa iar investiţiile făcute de români şi austrieci, aduc beneficii turistice. Proiectul de reabilitare a acestei atracţii, de la locomotive şi vagoane, până la linia ferată care prin 2009 nu era funcţională decât cam un kilometru, a fost susţinut de Asociaţia „Calea Ferată Îngustă.” La întoarcere invitaţii au fost „transferaţi” în 30 de căruţe cu care au mers circa 10 kilometri spre Mănăstire Moldoviţa din comuna Vatra Moldoviţei, unde au fost aşteptaţi de primarul Virgil Şaghin. \r\n\r\nDar cea mai dură aventură a fost cea trăită cu plutaşii pe Bistriţa aurie. Am plecat din Ciocăneşti cu mai multe plute. Cum apa era foarte scăzută, cu toate eforturile localnicilor de a amenaja un stăvilar temporar am rămas blocaţi de mai multe ori în diverse praguri ale râului. Salvarea a venit din partea tractoarelor, cândva fabricate în România, marca Universal 650, care după ce se opinteau la greu, de am crezut că o să se dezmembreze în zeci de bucăţi, au reuşit cu succes să ne scoată de fiecare dată din blocaje. Ce industria constructoare de maşini aveam cândva? În final, am legat toate plutele, şi am fost remorcaţi, dacă se poate spune aşa, până la staţia de... sosire. Colegii noştri străini au crezut că toate întâmplările au fost calculate. Când le-am relatat că nimic din ce au trăit nu face parte din program au savurat şi mai mult aventura pe care tocmai o terminaseră.\r\n\r\nCULTURĂ ŞI ISTORIE, ÎNPĂNATE.... CU GASTRONOMIE. Cum arată alte secvenţe ale vizitei în Bucovina? Tradiţii, care surprinzător nu au plictisit pe nimeni. E şi normal. Au fost atât de diverse încât de abia ai putut să le absorbi pe toate. Să amintim de triunghiul mănăstirilor, catedrale sprijinite în cer de pictori de frumos. Sub lumina superbă a zilelor de toamnă o parte din patrimoniul UNESCO ce-l deţine România – ne referim la Voroneţ, Moldoviţa şi Suceviţa -, au strălucit în faţa invitaţilor. Se vede că sunt locuri cu mare circulaţie turistică, maicile fiind nu numai păstrătoare a tradiţiei ci şi foarte buni vectori de comunicare şi gazde în ale gastronomiei. La Moldoviţa a avut loc o întâlnire de gradul zero între Alexandru Crăiuţ, cel care era primarul comunei în 1975, şi Miguel Angel Brera (preşedinte de onoare al FIJET), cel care i-a înmânat atunci primul “Măr de aur”, decernat Mănăstirilor din Bucovina. Oamenii locului cunosc valoarea trofeului. Ca urmare ei l-au închis într-un perete, sub un grilaj, ferecat cu lacăte trainice. Amuzantă a fost prezentarea măicuţei de la Mănăstirea Moldoviţa, care ne-a terorizat cu interdicţiile de a ne fotografia cu “Trofeul pe care ni l-a adus un jurnalist spaniol care conducea organizaţia FIJET, pe acea vreme parte din UNESCO”. Acel domn se afla chiar în faţa ei.\r\n\r\nPeste măsură de buni sunt membrii ansambului “Ciprian Porumbescu”. La fel de talentaţi la muzică şi la dans. Dacă nu aţi ajuns să îi ascultaţi live atunci căutaţi CD-urile lor pentru a va familiariza cât de cât. Două sesiuni artistice – La Capu Câmpului şi la Popasul Turistic Bucovina – ne-au convins că locurile îşi caută generaţiile tinere care să transmită mai departe o multiculturalitate fantastică. Dansurile tradiţionale moldoveneşti s-au îmbinat cu tradiţii austriece, poloneze, evreieşti, ruseşti, ucrainene etc. De altfel, rapsozii bucovineni i-au impresionat pe musafiri, artiştii din Suceava primind deja invitaţii să cânte în ţări precum Tunisia sau Liban.Un regal. Ca şi cel gastronomic care s-a produs de cel puţin două ori pe zi ad-hoc, vorba vine, sau în locuri special amenajate la Capu Câmpului, Moldoviţa ori Ciocăneşti ultima noastră oprire în Bucovina.\r\n\r\nSatul viu, cum are ambiţia de a-l promova Gheorghe Tomoioagă, primarul comunei şi în acelaşi timp un poet profund, a fost prezent într-o “Poiană a meşteşugarilor”, prin ştanduri cu produse tradiţionale, de la brânzeturi până la cârnaţi şi viţei puşi la proţap, slănină afumată ad-hoc şi udată cu ceva ţuică, trainic păzită de... ciobăneştii româneşti. De aici ne îndreptăm spre Transilvania. Pe numărul viitor.\r\n\r\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU','Redescopera Delta Dunarii - rubrica Redescopera Romania octombrie 2011','','inherit','open','open','','716-revision-2','','','2011-10-31 22:04:07','2011-10-31 20:04:07','',716,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/10/31/716-revision-2/',0,'revision','',0),(730,1,'2011-10-31 22:09:37','2011-10-31 20:09:37','TULCEA – Toate pânzele sus !

\r\nSuntem întotdeauna suporterii oricăror idei şi acţiuni, care aduc o valoare în plus promovării turistice. Cu atât mai mult cu cât ele sunt iniţiate de asociaţii ori companii private. Una dintre acestea a fost pusă în operă de Asociaţia Force Turism cu ocazia lansării revistei-catalog Force Turism – ediţia Tulcea. La vizita de documentare, ce a avut ca partener pe InfoTravelRomania, au fost invitaţi travel agenţi, reprezentanţi ai media de specialitate şi ai unor ministere implicate în noul proiect dezvoltat de Beatrice Chiriac, director general al Asociaţiei. Revista, promovată în versiunile româno-engleză lansează în cele 120 de pagini full color, format A4, noi proiecţii despre majoritatea atracţiilor, cunoscute sau mai puţin cunoscute ale judeţului, atipice şi unice. Câteva secvenţe ale acestui infotrip, în rândurile de mai jos.\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"rand\"]\r\n\r\n
O NOUĂ SIGLĂ ŞI O NOUĂ VIZIUNE. O primă şarjă de informaţii a fost oferită la complexul Delta Nature Resort în cadrul întâlnirii cu presa. Nicolae Chichi, vicepreşedinte la Consiliul Judeţean Tulcea a punctat câteva repere din noua identitate culturală a Deltei, care beneficiază şi de o siglă distinctă de promovare. Un prim pas care a fost urmat de proiectele de dezvoltare din cadrul strategiei Dunării, un program ce include 14 state dunărene, România şi Austria fiind doi promotori ai acestuia. Oficialul tulcean a arătat, printre altele, că Ţările Dunărene şi-au propus să deruleze proiecte comune care să creeze valoare adăugată actului turistic. În plus, se află în mişcare programe transfrontaliere semnate între România şi Bulgaria.
\r\nCa urmare Tulcea s-a mişcat rapid progresând în domeniu infrastructurii navale, a miniporturilor turistice şi a infrastructurii rutiere, care să permită un mai bun acces către atracţiile culturale, naturale şi istorice. Deja, primul mini-port a fost inaugurat la Sfântu Gheorghe, celelalte urmând să fie deschise la Sulina şi Murighiol. Deci nu e de mirare că Tulcea ca zonă, este din ce în ce mai căutată de către navele de croaziere fluviale, dar şi de tuorperatori din Turcia, Georgia, Bulgaria etc.\r\nCEASURILE SE REGLEAZĂ DUPĂ PULSUL HOTELIERILOR. Trebuie să spunem că oraşul ca atare a ieşit din amorţire şi acest lucru este vizibil dacă urmăreşti investiţiile hoteliere. Prima oprire a fost la Delta Nature Resort, primul complex de 5 stele apărut în Delta Dunării. Se află în apropierea Tulcei. Aici Maria Apolon, administratorul locaţiei, ne-a prezentat noile investiţii şi strategia cu care vor fi abordaţi anul viitor clienţii ce vor veni în vacanţe aici. O degustare de vinuri de Măcin, ne-a adus aminte de savuroasele arome din podgoria Sarica Niculiţel.\r\nChiar dacă anul trecut a fost horor pentru hotelierii din Tulcea investiţiile nu au stagnat. Şi bine au făcut oamenii de afaceri pentru că pe vremuri de criză trebuie să rişti. Hristu Caraman, o legendă vie a acestor locuri patronează Complexul Delta, cu două hoteluri de 3 şi respectiv 4 stele. Primul deţine 234 de locuri, celălalt 188 în camere single, duble, deluxe şi apartamente. Omul este optimist din fire pentru că: „Anul trecut a fost atât de prost încât ne-am gândit la un moment dat să vindem. Cui, nu prea ştiam! În acest sezon ne-am scos pârleala pentru 2010 care a fost un dezastru. Gradul de ocupare de peste 90%, ne este asigurat de agenţiile de turism, operatorii de croaziere, de afacerile din portul oraşului, evenimente etc. Mai avem avantajul că asigurăm direct, cu mijloace proprii, excursii în Delta Dunării, cu vase de capacitate mare, elegante, dotate cu restaurant şi bar”.
\r\nAcum e mai relaxat, aşa că are timp şi să ne spună gluma despre cel mai plăcut coşmar al hotelierului. El este... „să audă în fiecare zi cum se ciocnesc valizele turiştilor care vin cu ale celor care pleacă!” Asta îşi doreşte şi familia Gheorghe şi Mihai Puflene. Primul deţine hotelul Esplanada (de 4 stele) şi complexul Esplanada Parc (săli de conferinţe, spaţii de cazare la etajul 1 şi o bucătărie impecabil dotată), o bijuterile de construcţie care se bucură de mare succes. Şi la el 2011 a urcat în încasări şi anunţă un an viitor cel puţin rezonabil în evenimente sociale şi turistice. La rândul său Mihai, directorul hotelului Rex din Tulcea, a fost încântat să ne prezinte viitorul Puflene Resort, aflat în fază de şantier. Acesta va schimba fundamental înfăţişarea localităţii Murighiol nu numai sub aspectul locurilor de muncă. Va fi gata anul viitor, dacă şi timpul şi finanţarea vor lucra favorabil. Atunci va promova pe piaţa locală 300 de locuri de cazare, 5 săli de conferinţă, un casinou, Centre Spa şi de Fitness, piscină la dimensiuni olimpice, terenuri de tenis şi fotbal, resturante şi baruri.\r\n\r\nCARE E BĂTAIA PEŞTELUI ÎN DELTA DUNĂRII!

Deţine peste 69.000 de bunuri culturale, cele mai vechi piese datând din 1950, de la bogata floră şi faună pînă la speciile care trăiesc în zona deltaică şi a Mării Negre. „Mesajul suprem este Descoperă, iubeşte şi protejează Delta Dunării!” Chiar la intrarea în muzeu se află expus trofeul Mărul de aur (Golden Apple), decernat în urmă cu doi ani Rezervaţiei Delta Dunării, de către FIJET, pe baza propunerilor Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET România.

Mai lipsesc facilităţile pentru agrement în aer liber, terenurile de sport, de joacă pentru copii etc.\r\n\r\nO notă maximă pentru ospitalitate am dat pensiunii Eden de la Crişan.

Aceeaşi menţiune şi pentru pensiunea Lotus din Nufăru, o zonă ca la începutul lumii, cu oameni încă timizi în a primi turişti.

Foarte, activi, editorii şi scriitorii români - conduşi de Victor Rădulescu -, au reuşit să aducă la Bucureşti trei evenimente: O sesiune de lucrări a Consiliului Director, prilej cu care au fost inspectate mai multe destinaţii turistice de top; Stabilirea şi decernarea a 3 trofee Golden Apple (Pomme D’or), ce au revenit Zonei Mărginimea Sibiului, Rezervaţiei Biosferei Delta Dunării şi companiei aeriene Blue Air (2009) şi, în septembrie, Organizarea celui de-al 53-lea Congres Internaţional FIJET, la Palatul Parlamentului.\r\n\r\nPrecizările sunt necesare pentru că presa generalistă a amestecat rău de tot borcanele speculând din diverse unghiuri politice, dar mai ales dintr-o crasă necunoaştere, faptul că ministerul a cheltuit bani pe tot felul de bazaconii. Nu Ministerul Turismului a creat aceste evenimente ci Clubul Presei de Turism – FIJET România care a propus Ministerului Turismului un parteneriat agreat de finanţare şi promovare. În aceste activităţi s-au implicat administraţii regionale şi locale, organizaţii de promovare turistică şi, fireşte, o serie de firme private.\r\n\r\nLICITAŢII CA LA OLIMPIADE. Într-un asemenea montaj s-a desfăşurat pentru prima dată în România, a Congresul Internaţional al FIJET, a 53-a ediţie, congres care uzual cuprinde o scurtă sesiune de prezentări şi comunicări de profil de două zile. După care urmează circa 6-7 zile în care se realizează vizite de documentare şi familiarizare cu o serie de atracţii turistice (istorie, cultură, gastronomie, natură, tradiţii), reprezentative pentru ţara organizatoare. Tiparul e păstrat de decenii. Iar manifestarea este un foarte bun prilej de promovare şi publicitare a ţării gazdă. De aceea ţara unde urmează să fie organizat Congresul FIJET este licitată cu ani înainte, ca în cazul olimpiadelor ori campionatelor mondiale de fotbal. În ultimii 3 ani evenimentul a fost găzduit de Slovenia, China şi Turcia.\r\n\r\n30 DE ŢĂRI BAT FIERUL CÂT E CALD. Împărţit în două de vizitarea Palatului Parlamentului, al 53-lea Congres internaţional al FIJET a atras la Bucureşti reprezentanţi ai mass-media din 30 de ţări ale lumii. Tema principală sub care s-au desfăşurat lucrările a fost “Patrimoniul cultural mondial în presa de turism” (Explorează grădina Carpaţilor).\r\n\r\nPeste 200 de jurnalişti, editori şi invitaţi, din mai toate ţările Uniunii Europene inclusiv, fireşte din Romania, dar şi din Rusia, Ucraina, Turcia, Liban, Egipt, Tunisia, SUA, Canada, Panama, Mexic şi Venezuela, Liban, Bulgaria, Croaţia, Polonia, Italia, Belgia, Olanda, Spania, Slovacia au ascultat mai multe prezentări, cele ale ţării noastre fiind susţinute de profesorii Gabriela Ţigu (Scurtă istorie a presei de turism din România şi Puiu Nistoreanu (Cum îşi văd tinerii ţara în fotografii), de la catedra de turism a Academiei de Ştiinţe Economice din Bucureşti, membrii ai Clubului Presei de Turism din România. Interesante, cu elemente inedite, care au creat unghiuri noi de percepţie cele două comunicări au fost aplaudate ca la un spectacol de teatru. Aceleaşi aplauze de care s-au bucurat reprezentanţii Egiptului şi Republicii Panama, gazde ale următoarelor două congrese, s-au cuvenit şi Ministerului Turismului, care nu a valorificat ocazia de a-şi promova spoturile de promovare turistică a brandului de ţară. Ei asta e. Nu poţi să le ai pe toate.\r\n\r\nBUCOVINA – CA UN MĂR DE AUR. Dacă ar fi să definesc într-un singur cuvânt ce m-a impresionat cel mai mult în Bucovina este – Tradiţia. Mai precis păstrarea într-o formă vie a tradiţiilor ne spunea un jurnalist din Rusia. Ea sintetizează toate cele 3 zile cât a durat „raliul” de documentare în judeţul Suceava. Pilotul şef şi ghidul-gazdă a fost Gheorghe Flutur, preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean. După ce a epuizat secvenţele oficiale, schimb de cadouri (de promovare, fireşte) cu Tijanni Hadad, preşedintele FIJET s-a trecut la lucruri grele care au dat savoarea de unicat a acestei fabuloase destinaţii. „Cred că Bucovina este România adevărată. Pentru că aceasta este ceea ce turiştii vor să vadă. Vor să vadă tradiţiile, locuri străvechi şi moştenirea culturală. Această parte a României ar trebui explorată, ar trebui promovată ca o nouă piaţă. Le voi spune prietenilor mei să vină aici, dar şi celorlalţi prin ceea ce vom scrie după această vizită. Vor fi foarte multe articole despre Bucovina” - spunea Tijani. \r\n\r\nGheorghe Flutur, care i-a declarat pe toţi participanţii la Congres „pelerini în Bucovina”, oferindu-le diploma aferentă, a primit la rândul său o plachetă specială din partea FIJET. El şi-a făcut o imagine interesantă în timpul întâlnirilor fireşti cu presa străină. „Unii mi-au spus că Bucovina se diferenţiază de celelalte zone prin tradiţii, cu totul şi cu totul aparte, prin gastronomia extraordinară, căldura oamenilor şi monumentele UNESCO care sunt unice. Alţi jurnalişti au declarat că această zonă a ţării seamănă foarte mult cu ceea ce şi-au imaginat a fi „Grădina din Carpaţi”. Au fost observaţii remarcabile cum că România înseamnă Bucovina şi Bucovina înseamnă România. Când au vorbit despre brandul de ţară, au spus că l-au identificat aici în judeţul Suceava, şi nu am decât să mă bucur.\r\n\r\nSunt mulţumit de impactul vizitei ziariştilor de turism, şi am convingerea că articolele publicate de aceştia vor fi un mare câştig pentru judeţul Suceava”. Flutur a mai declarat că efectele acestei vizite de documentare se vor regăsi în timp în creşterea numărului de turişti străini care vor vizita Bucovina. “Facem în permanenţă investiţii în promovare, dar acesta a fost un moment unic, în ultimele decenii. Nu primim în fiecare zi 200 de jurnalişti străini de turism. A fost un eveniment care ne-a onorat şi pe care l-am onorat ca atare” – a mai precizat preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean Suceava.\r\n\r\nPARCĂ NE-AM AFLAT ÎN ALTĂ LUME. Georges Younes şi Amale Gorra, doi reprezentanţi ai delegaţiei Libanului au rămas şi ei încântaţi: “Este un succes iar ceea ce am vizitat a fost minunat. Fiecare oraş, fiecare sat, fiecare loc ne-a transmis căldura oamenilor. Pâinea cu sare şi produsele tradiţionale ne-au vorbit despre talentul bucovinenilor de a-şi păstra naturaleţea. Mulţumirile noastre se adresează muncii membrilor FIJET România şi organismelor locale care au dorit să ne ofere cât mai mult într-un timp relativ scurt. Voi recomanda tuturor prietenilor mei din Liban să viziteze România dacă doresc să trăiască o experienţă excepţională, unică, pe care n-au întâlnit-o niciodată”. Amale Gorra spune: “Peste tot am fost primiţi cu muzică şi dans. Realmente am avut senzaţia că ne aflăm în altă lume, lipsită de tensiuni. Recomandarea mea este să ajungi aici pentru că o să adori această ţară. Moldova şi Transilvania sunt nişte regiuni în care timpul parcă s-a oprit în loc şi sper că părţi din ele vor rămâne aşa. A fost un excepţional congres prin oamenii pe care i-am întâlnit!”\r\n\r\nO PORŢIE DE AVENTURĂ, DURĂ, DURĂ. Despre asta vor vorbi mai bine sutele de mii de fotografii care au fost făcute la faţa locului. Două felii mari de aventură ne-au fost oferite cu aceeaşi generozitate tot din platoul cu „bucăţi turistice din Bucovina”. Prima a fost pusă la cale de plimbarea cu mocăniţa, tren pe linie îngustă, pe o lungime de peste 18 kilometri. Se mai numeşte şi Huţulca de la Moldoviţa iar investiţiile făcute de români şi austrieci, aduc beneficii turistice. Proiectul de reabilitare a acestei atracţii, de la locomotive şi vagoane, până la linia ferată care prin 2009 nu era funcţională decât cam un kilometru, a fost susţinut de Asociaţia „Calea Ferată Îngustă.” La întoarcere invitaţii au fost „transferaţi” în 30 de căruţe cu care au mers circa 10 kilometri spre Mănăstire Moldoviţa din comuna Vatra Moldoviţei, unde au fost aşteptaţi de primarul Virgil Şaghin. \r\n\r\nDar cea mai dură aventură a fost cea trăită cu plutaşii pe Bistriţa aurie. Am plecat din Ciocăneşti cu mai multe plute. Cum apa era foarte scăzută, cu toate eforturile localnicilor de a amenaja un stăvilar temporar am rămas blocaţi de mai multe ori în diverse praguri ale râului. Salvarea a venit din partea tractoarelor, cândva fabricate în România, marca Universal 650, care după ce se opinteau la greu, de am crezut că o să se dezmembreze în zeci de bucăţi, au reuşit cu succes să ne scoată de fiecare dată din blocaje. Ce industria constructoare de maşini aveam cândva? În final, am legat toate plutele, şi am fost remorcaţi, dacă se poate spune aşa, până la staţia de... sosire. Colegii noştri străini au crezut că toate întâmplările au fost calculate. Când le-am relatat că nimic din ce au trăit nu face parte din program au savurat şi mai mult aventura pe care tocmai o terminaseră.\r\n\r\nCULTURĂ ŞI ISTORIE, ÎNPĂNATE.... CU GASTRONOMIE. Cum arată alte secvenţe ale vizitei în Bucovina? Tradiţii, care surprinzător nu au plictisit pe nimeni. E şi normal. Au fost atât de diverse încât de abia ai putut să le absorbi pe toate. Să amintim de triunghiul mănăstirilor, catedrale sprijinite în cer de pictori de frumos. Sub lumina superbă a zilelor de toamnă o parte din patrimoniul UNESCO ce-l deţine România – ne referim la Voroneţ, Moldoviţa şi Suceviţa -, au strălucit în faţa invitaţilor. Se vede că sunt locuri cu mare circulaţie turistică, maicile fiind nu numai păstrătoare a tradiţiei ci şi foarte buni vectori de comunicare şi gazde în ale gastronomiei. La Moldoviţa a avut loc o întâlnire de gradul zero între Alexandru Crăiuţ, cel care era primarul comunei în 1975, şi Miguel Angel Brera (preşedinte de onoare al FIJET), cel care i-a înmânat atunci primul “Măr de aur”, decernat Mănăstirilor din Bucovina. Oamenii locului cunosc valoarea trofeului. Ca urmare ei l-au închis într-un perete, sub un grilaj, ferecat cu lacăte trainice. Amuzantă a fost prezentarea măicuţei de la Mănăstirea Moldoviţa, care ne-a terorizat cu interdicţiile de a ne fotografia cu “Trofeul pe care ni l-a adus un jurnalist spaniol care conducea organizaţia FIJET, pe acea vreme parte din UNESCO”. Acel domn se afla chiar în faţa ei.\r\n\r\nPeste măsură de buni sunt membrii ansambului “Ciprian Porumbescu”. La fel de talentaţi la muzică şi la dans. Dacă nu aţi ajuns să îi ascultaţi live atunci căutaţi CD-urile lor pentru a va familiariza cât de cât. Două sesiuni artistice – La Capu Câmpului şi la Popasul Turistic Bucovina – ne-au convins că locurile îşi caută generaţiile tinere care să transmită mai departe o multiculturalitate fantastică. Dansurile tradiţionale moldoveneşti s-au îmbinat cu tradiţii austriece, poloneze, evreieşti, ruseşti, ucrainene etc. De altfel, rapsozii bucovineni i-au impresionat pe musafiri, artiştii din Suceava primind deja invitaţii să cânte în ţări precum Tunisia sau Liban.Un regal. Ca şi cel gastronomic care s-a produs de cel puţin două ori pe zi ad-hoc, vorba vine, sau în locuri special amenajate la Capu Câmpului, Moldoviţa ori Ciocăneşti ultima noastră oprire în Bucovina.\r\n\r\nSatul viu, cum are ambiţia de a-l promova Gheorghe Tomoioagă, primarul comunei şi în acelaşi timp un poet profund, a fost prezent într-o “Poiană a meşteşugarilor”, prin ştanduri cu produse tradiţionale, de la brânzeturi până la cârnaţi şi viţei puşi la proţap, slănină afumată ad-hoc şi udată cu ceva ţuică, trainic păzită de... ciobăneştii româneşti. De aici ne îndreptăm spre Transilvania. Pe numărul viitor.\r\n\r\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU','Redescopera Delta Dunarii - rubrica Redescopera Romania octombrie 2011','','inherit','open','open','','716-revision-3','','','2011-10-31

\r\nSuntem întotdeauna suporterii oricăror idei şi acţiuni, care aduc o valoare în plus promovării turistice. Cu atât mai mult cu cât ele sunt iniţiate de asociaţii ori companii private. Una dintre acestea a fost pusă în operă de Asociaţia Force Turism cu ocazia lansării revistei-catalog Force Turism – ediţia Tulcea. La vizita de documentare, ce a avut ca partener pe InfoTravelRomania, au fost invitaţi travel agenţi, reprezentanţi ai media de specialitate şi ai unor ministere implicate în noul proiect dezvoltat de Beatrice Chiriac, director general al Asociaţiei. Revista, promovată în versiunile româno-engleză lansează în cele 120 de pagini full color, format A4, noi proiecţii despre majoritatea atracţiilor, cunoscute sau mai puţin cunoscute ale judeţului, atipice şi unice. Câteva secvenţe ale acestui infotrip, în rândurile de mai jos.\r\n[gallery orderby=\"rand\"]\r\n\r\n
O NOUĂ SIGLĂ ŞI O NOUĂ VIZIUNE. O primă şarjă de informaţii a fost oferită la complexul Delta Nature Resort în cadrul întâlnirii cu presa. Nicolae Chichi, vicepreşedinte la Consiliul Judeţean Tulcea a punctat câteva repere din noua identitate culturală a Deltei, care beneficiază şi de o siglă distinctă de promovare. Un prim pas care a fost urmat de proiectele de dezvoltare din cadrul strategiei Dunării, un program ce include 14 state dunărene, România şi Austria fiind doi promotori ai acestuia. Oficialul tulcean a arătat, printre altele, că Ţările Dunărene şi-au propus să deruleze proiecte comune care să creeze valoare adăugată actului turistic. În plus, se află în mişcare programe transfrontaliere semnate între România şi Bulgaria.
\r\nCa urmare Tulcea s-a mişcat rapid progresând în domeniu infrastructurii navale, a miniporturilor turistice şi a infrastructurii rutiere, care să permită un mai bun acces către atracţiile culturale, naturale şi istorice. Deja, primul mini-port a fost inaugurat la Sfântu Gheorghe, celelalte urmând să fie deschise la Sulina şi Murighiol. Deci nu e de mirare că Tulcea ca zonă, este din ce în ce mai căutată de către navele de croaziere fluviale, dar şi de tuorperatori din Turcia, Georgia, Bulgaria etc.\r\nCEASURILE SE REGLEAZĂ DUPĂ PULSUL HOTELIERILOR. Trebuie să spunem că oraşul ca atare a ieşit din amorţire şi acest lucru este vizibil dacă urmăreşti investiţiile hoteliere. Prima oprire a fost la Delta Nature Resort, primul complex de 5 stele apărut în Delta Dunării. Se află în apropierea Tulcei. Aici Maria Apolon, administratorul locaţiei, ne-a prezentat noile investiţii şi strategia cu care vor fi abordaţi anul viitor clienţii ce vor veni în vacanţe aici. O degustare de vinuri de Măcin, ne-a adus aminte de savuroasele arome din podgoria Sarica Niculiţel.\r\nChiar dacă anul trecut a fost horor pentru hotelierii din Tulcea investiţiile nu au stagnat. Şi bine au făcut oamenii de afaceri pentru că pe vremuri de criză trebuie să rişti. Hristu Caraman, o legendă vie a acestor locuri patronează Complexul Delta, cu două hoteluri de 3 şi respectiv 4 stele. Primul deţine 234 de locuri, celălalt 188 în camere single, duble, deluxe şi apartamente. Omul este optimist din fire pentru că: „Anul trecut a fost atât de prost încât ne-am gândit la un moment dat să vindem. Cui, nu prea ştiam! În acest sezon ne-am scos pârleala pentru 2010 care a fost un dezastru. Gradul de ocupare de peste 90%, ne este asigurat de agenţiile de turism, operatorii de croaziere, de afacerile din portul oraşului, evenimente etc. Mai avem avantajul că asigurăm direct, cu mijloace proprii, excursii în Delta Dunării, cu vase de capacitate mare, elegante, dotate cu restaurant şi bar”.
\r\nAcum e mai relaxat, aşa că are timp şi să ne spună gluma despre cel mai plăcut coşmar al hotelierului. El este... „să audă în fiecare zi cum se ciocnesc valizele turiştilor care vin cu ale celor care pleacă!” Asta îşi doreşte şi familia Gheorghe şi Mihai Puflene. Primul deţine hotelul Esplanada (de 4 stele) şi complexul Esplanada Parc (săli de conferinţe, spaţii de cazare la etajul 1 şi o bucătărie impecabil dotată), o bijuterile de construcţie care se bucură de mare succes. Şi la el 2011 a urcat în încasări şi anunţă un an viitor cel puţin rezonabil în evenimente sociale şi turistice. La rândul său Mihai, directorul hotelului Rex din Tulcea, a fost încântat să ne prezinte viitorul Puflene Resort, aflat în fază de şantier. Acesta va schimba fundamental înfăţişarea localităţii Murighiol nu numai sub aspectul locurilor de muncă. Va fi gata anul viitor, dacă şi timpul şi finanţarea vor lucra favorabil. Atunci va promova pe piaţa locală 300 de locuri de cazare, 5 săli de conferinţă, un casinou, Centre Spa şi de Fitness, piscină la dimensiuni olimpice, terenuri de tenis şi fotbal, resturante şi baruri.\r\n\r\nCARE E BĂTAIA PEŞTELUI ÎN DELTA DUNĂRII! O croazieră pe canalele Deltei cu mai multe stopuri şi cazări ne-a arătat cât de greu este să navigezi în ape foarte scăzute dar cât de plăcut este să faci turism atunci când te pricepi la acest lucru. „Ghidul” nostru ocazional este chiar inginer piscicol. Dar Cristina Dinu, directorul Institutului de Cercetări Eco-Muzeale Tulcea (ICEM) s-a dovedit a fi mai mult decât o gazdă colocvială. Mai întâi trebuie să vă spunem că nu aţi înţeles nimic din Tulcea dacă nu aţi vizitat Centrul muzeal eco-turistic. S-a construit pe baza unui proiect transfrontalier, finanţat din bani europeni şi s-a deschis în urmă cu doi ani. Conceptul muzeal reuneşte o colecţie fabuloasă şi un Acvariu, unul dintre cele mai moderne din Europa. Deţine peste 69.000 de bunuri culturale, cele mai vechi piese datând din 1950, de la bogata floră şi faună pînă la speciile care trăiesc în zona deltaică şi a Mării Negre. „Mesajul suprem este Descoperă, iubeşte şi protejează Delta Dunării!” Chiar la intrarea în muzeu se află expus trofeul Mărul de aur (Golden Apple), decernat în urmă cu doi ani Rezervaţiei Delta Dunării, de către FIJET, pe baza propunerilor Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET România. Este una dintre cele 4 distincţii adjudecate de ţara noastră.\r\n\r\nÎn maratonul nostru am vizitat şi inspectat Complexul turistic Mila 35 – modernizat - construit stil eco cu foarte multe structuri de lemn -, piscină, terenuri de tenis, restaurant cu 120 de locuri, sală de conferinţe cu 60 de locuri, iaz pentru pescuit etc. Pensiunea Cherhana din satul Crişan, aşezată la intersecţia Canalului Sulina cu Canalul Caraorman, e promovată ca singura existentă din Crişan şi una dintre puţinele din Delta Dunării cu clasificare de 5 stele. Complex tip resort, cu vile independente şi un corp central pentru activităţi recreative şi conferinţe. Mai lipsesc facilităţile pentru agrement în aer liber, terenurile de sport, de joacă pentru copii etc.\r\n\r\nO notă maximă pentru ospitalitate am dat pensiunii Eden de la Crişan. Pe deplin meritate cele 4 stele pentru dotările de cazare (10 camere şi 2 apartamente, în total 24 de locuri) dar şi pentru gastronomia locală, pe bază, cum altfel decât de peşte, „administrată” de către Ileana Vasilief. Aceeaşi menţiune şi pentru pensiunea Lotus din Nufăru, o zonă ca la începutul lumii, cu oameni încă timizi în a primi turişti. Investiţia făcută din fonduri europene ca şi bucătăria casei arată că banii au meritat alocaţi iar acum merită cheltuiţi de turişti. Aveţi pe ce! Progrese s-au făcut şi în transportul pe apă. Mucalit de felul său Nicu Bulea, cel care administrează parcul de nave rapide prin firma Prodcon Antreprenor General, e mândru că poate oferi servicii de calitate turiştilor care vin şi vor veni, are el certitudinea, din ce în ce mai mulţi în Delta Dunării „Operăm cu 6 nave rapide cu o capacitate cuprinsă între 54 şi 71 de locuri. Avem curse permanente între Tulcea şi Sulina, Sf. Gheorghe şi Chilia. Plus curse de sezon la cerere pe canalele navigabile ale Deltei”.\r\nDespre Sulina, fantoma turismului românesc care se va trezi foarte curând la viaţă şi alte noutăţi din Delta Dunării, în numărul viitor.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n.....................................................................................\r\n\r\nFIJET: Bucovina şi Transilvania şi-au pus ofertele pe masă (I) \r\n\r\nCe reprezintă FIJET ? Federaţia Internaţională a Jurnaliştilor şi Editorilor de Turism (World Federation of Tourism Journalists and Writers)., cea mai veche asociaţie din această breaslă. A luat fiinţă în 1954, la Paris ca organizaţie non-profit, şi aşa a rămas până azi când din ea fac parte peste 800 de membrii, ce activează în 40 de ţări, prin asociaţii de sine stătătoare, ce reprezintă filiale ale FIJET.\r\n\r\nUN CONGRES NUMIT DORINŢĂ. România a dispărut de pe această piaţă în urmă cu aproape 15 ani, datorită şi faptului că asociaţia care o reprezenta s-a uzat moral şi fizic. Cu mai bine de 3 ani în urmă s-a înfiinţat la Bucureşti, prin voinţa liberă a peste 20 de membrii fondatori Clubul Presei de Turism. Acesta a reuşit, în foarte scurt timp, să readucă preocupările de breaslă în atenţia unor organizaţii internaţionale. În 2008 se reînoadă o tradiţia. Clubul devine membru cu drepturi depline al FIJET, reprezentând România. Foarte, activi, editorii şi scriitorii români - conduşi de Victor Rădulescu -, au reuşit să aducă la Bucureşti trei evenimente: O sesiune de lucrări a Consiliului Director, prilej cu care au fost inspectate mai multe destinaţii turistice de top; Stabilirea şi decernarea a 3 trofee Golden Apple (Pomme D’or), ce au revenit Zonei Mărginimea Sibiului, Rezervaţiei Biosferei Delta Dunării şi companiei aeriene Blue Air (2009) şi, în septembrie, Organizarea celui de-al 53-lea Congres Internaţional FIJET, la Palatul Parlamentului.\r\n\r\nPrecizările sunt necesare pentru că presa generalistă a amestecat rău de tot borcanele speculând din diverse unghiuri politice, dar mai ales dintr-o crasă necunoaştere, faptul că ministerul a cheltuit bani pe tot felul de bazaconii. Nu Ministerul Turismului a creat aceste evenimente ci Clubul Presei de Turism – FIJET România care a propus Ministerului Turismului un parteneriat agreat de finanţare şi promovare. În aceste activităţi s-au implicat administraţii regionale şi locale, organizaţii de promovare turistică şi, fireşte, o serie de firme private.\r\n\r\nLICITAŢII CA LA OLIMPIADE. Într-un asemenea montaj s-a desfăşurat pentru prima dată în România, a Congresul Internaţional al FIJET, a 53-a ediţie, congres care uzual cuprinde o scurtă sesiune de prezentări şi comunicări de profil de două zile. După care urmează circa 6-7 zile în care se realizează vizite de documentare şi familiarizare cu o serie de atracţii turistice (istorie, cultură, gastronomie, natură, tradiţii), reprezentative pentru ţara organizatoare. Tiparul e păstrat de decenii. Iar manifestarea este un foarte bun prilej de promovare şi publicitare a ţării gazdă. De aceea ţara unde urmează să fie organizat Congresul FIJET este licitată cu ani înainte, ca în cazul olimpiadelor ori campionatelor mondiale de fotbal. În ultimii 3 ani evenimentul a fost găzduit de Slovenia, China şi Turcia.\r\n\r\n30 DE ŢĂRI BAT FIERUL CÂT E CALD. Împărţit în două de vizitarea Palatului Parlamentului, al 53-lea Congres internaţional al FIJET a atras la Bucureşti reprezentanţi ai mass-media din 30 de ţări ale lumii. Tema principală sub care s-au desfăşurat lucrările a fost “Patrimoniul cultural mondial în presa de turism” (Explorează grădina Carpaţilor).\r\n\r\nPeste 200 de jurnalişti, editori şi invitaţi, din mai toate ţările Uniunii Europene inclusiv, fireşte din Romania, dar şi din Rusia, Ucraina, Turcia, Liban, Egipt, Tunisia, SUA, Canada, Panama, Mexic şi Venezuela, Liban, Bulgaria, Croaţia, Polonia, Italia, Belgia, Olanda, Spania, Slovacia au ascultat mai multe prezentări, cele ale ţării noastre fiind susţinute de profesorii Gabriela Ţigu (Scurtă istorie a presei de turism din România şi Puiu Nistoreanu (Cum îşi văd tinerii ţara în fotografii), de la catedra de turism a Academiei de Ştiinţe Economice din Bucureşti, membrii ai Clubului Presei de Turism din România. Interesante, cu elemente inedite, care au creat unghiuri noi de percepţie cele două comunicări au fost aplaudate ca la un spectacol de teatru. Aceleaşi aplauze de care s-au bucurat reprezentanţii Egiptului şi Republicii Panama, gazde ale următoarelor două congrese, s-au cuvenit şi Ministerului Turismului, care nu a valorificat ocazia de a-şi promova spoturile de promovare turistică a brandului de ţară. Ei asta e. Nu poţi să le ai pe toate.\r\n\r\nBUCOVINA – CA UN MĂR DE AUR. Dacă ar fi să definesc într-un singur cuvânt ce m-a impresionat cel mai mult în Bucovina este – Tradiţia. Mai precis păstrarea într-o formă vie a tradiţiilor ne spunea un jurnalist din Rusia. Ea sintetizează toate cele 3 zile cât a durat „raliul” de documentare în judeţul Suceava. Pilotul şef şi ghidul-gazdă a fost Gheorghe Flutur, preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean. După ce a epuizat secvenţele oficiale, schimb de cadouri (de promovare, fireşte) cu Tijanni Hadad, preşedintele FIJET s-a trecut la lucruri grele care au dat savoarea de unicat a acestei fabuloase destinaţii. „Cred că Bucovina este România adevărată. Pentru că aceasta este ceea ce turiştii vor să vadă. Vor să vadă tradiţiile, locuri străvechi şi moştenirea culturală. Această parte a României ar trebui explorată, ar trebui promovată ca o nouă piaţă. Le voi spune prietenilor mei să vină aici, dar şi celorlalţi prin ceea ce vom scrie după această vizită. Vor fi foarte multe articole despre Bucovina” - spunea Tijani. \r\n\r\nGheorghe Flutur, care i-a declarat pe toţi participanţii la Congres „pelerini în Bucovina”, oferindu-le diploma aferentă, a primit la rândul său o plachetă specială din partea FIJET. El şi-a făcut o imagine interesantă în timpul întâlnirilor fireşti cu presa străină. „Unii mi-au spus că Bucovina se diferenţiază de celelalte zone prin tradiţii, cu totul şi cu totul aparte, prin gastronomia extraordinară, căldura oamenilor şi monumentele UNESCO care sunt unice. Alţi jurnalişti au declarat că această zonă a ţării seamănă foarte mult cu ceea ce şi-au imaginat a fi „Grădina din Carpaţi”. Au fost observaţii remarcabile cum că România înseamnă Bucovina şi Bucovina înseamnă România. Când au vorbit despre brandul de ţară, au spus că l-au identificat aici în judeţul Suceava, şi nu am decât să mă bucur.\r\n\r\nSunt mulţumit de impactul vizitei ziariştilor de turism, şi am convingerea că articolele publicate de aceştia vor fi un mare câştig pentru judeţul Suceava”. Flutur a mai declarat că efectele acestei vizite de documentare se vor regăsi în timp în creşterea numărului de turişti străini care vor vizita Bucovina. “Facem în permanenţă investiţii în promovare, dar acesta a fost un moment unic, în ultimele decenii. Nu primim în fiecare zi 200 de jurnalişti străini de turism. A fost un eveniment care ne-a onorat şi pe care l-am onorat ca atare” – a mai precizat preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean Suceava.\r\n\r\nPARCĂ NE-AM AFLAT ÎN ALTĂ LUME. Georges Younes şi Amale Gorra, doi reprezentanţi ai delegaţiei Libanului au rămas şi ei încântaţi: “Este un succes iar ceea ce am vizitat a fost minunat. Fiecare oraş, fiecare sat, fiecare loc ne-a transmis căldura oamenilor. Pâinea cu sare şi produsele tradiţionale ne-au vorbit despre talentul bucovinenilor de a-şi păstra naturaleţea. Mulţumirile noastre se adresează muncii membrilor FIJET România şi organismelor locale care au dorit să ne ofere cât mai mult într-un timp relativ scurt. Voi recomanda tuturor prietenilor mei din Liban să viziteze România dacă doresc să trăiască o experienţă excepţională, unică, pe care n-au întâlnit-o niciodată”. Amale Gorra spune: “Peste tot am fost primiţi cu muzică şi dans. Realmente am avut senzaţia că ne aflăm în altă lume, lipsită de tensiuni. Recomandarea mea este să ajungi aici pentru că o să adori această ţară. Moldova şi Transilvania sunt nişte regiuni în care timpul parcă s-a oprit în loc şi sper că părţi din ele vor rămâne aşa. A fost un excepţional congres prin oamenii pe care i-am întâlnit!”\r\n\r\nO PORŢIE DE AVENTURĂ, DURĂ, DURĂ. Despre asta vor vorbi mai bine sutele de mii de fotografii care au fost făcute la faţa locului. Două felii mari de aventură ne-au fost oferite cu aceeaşi generozitate tot din platoul cu „bucăţi turistice din Bucovina”. Prima a fost pusă la cale de plimbarea cu mocăniţa, tren pe linie îngustă, pe o lungime de peste 18 kilometri. Se mai numeşte şi Huţulca de la Moldoviţa iar investiţiile făcute de români şi austrieci, aduc beneficii turistice. Proiectul de reabilitare a acestei atracţii, de la locomotive şi vagoane, până la linia ferată care prin 2009 nu era funcţională decât cam un kilometru, a fost susţinut de Asociaţia „Calea Ferată Îngustă.” La întoarcere invitaţii au fost „transferaţi” în 30 de căruţe cu care au mers circa 10 kilometri spre Mănăstire Moldoviţa din comuna Vatra Moldoviţei, unde au fost aşteptaţi de primarul Virgil Şaghin. \r\n\r\nDar cea mai dură aventură a fost cea trăită cu plutaşii pe Bistriţa aurie. Am plecat din Ciocăneşti cu mai multe plute. Cum apa era foarte scăzută, cu toate eforturile localnicilor de a amenaja un stăvilar temporar am rămas blocaţi de mai multe ori în diverse praguri ale râului. Salvarea a venit din partea tractoarelor, cândva fabricate în România, marca Universal 650, care după ce se opinteau la greu, de am crezut că o să se dezmembreze în zeci de bucăţi, au reuşit cu succes să ne scoată de fiecare dată din blocaje. Ce industria constructoare de maşini aveam cândva? În final, am legat toate plutele, şi am fost remorcaţi, dacă se poate spune aşa, până la staţia de... sosire. Colegii noştri străini au crezut că toate întâmplările au fost calculate. Când le-am relatat că nimic din ce au trăit nu face parte din program au savurat şi mai mult aventura pe care tocmai o terminaseră.\r\n\r\nCULTURĂ ŞI ISTORIE, ÎNPĂNATE.... CU GASTRONOMIE. Cum arată alte secvenţe ale vizitei în Bucovina? Tradiţii, care surprinzător nu au plictisit pe nimeni. E şi normal. Au fost atât de diverse încât de abia ai putut să le absorbi pe toate. Să amintim de triunghiul mănăstirilor, catedrale sprijinite în cer de pictori de frumos. Sub lumina superbă a zilelor de toamnă o parte din patrimoniul UNESCO ce-l deţine România – ne referim la Voroneţ, Moldoviţa şi Suceviţa -, au strălucit în faţa invitaţilor. Se vede că sunt locuri cu mare circulaţie turistică, maicile fiind nu numai păstrătoare a tradiţiei ci şi foarte buni vectori de comunicare şi gazde în ale gastronomiei. La Moldoviţa a avut loc o întâlnire de gradul zero între Alexandru Crăiuţ, cel care era primarul comunei în 1975, şi Miguel Angel Brera (preşedinte de onoare al FIJET), cel care i-a înmânat atunci primul “Măr de aur”, decernat Mănăstirilor din Bucovina. Oamenii locului cunosc valoarea trofeului. Ca urmare ei l-au închis într-un perete, sub un grilaj, ferecat cu lacăte trainice. Amuzantă a fost prezentarea măicuţei de la Mănăstirea Moldoviţa, care ne-a terorizat cu interdicţiile de a ne fotografia cu “Trofeul pe care ni l-a adus un jurnalist spaniol care conducea organizaţia FIJET, pe acea vreme parte din UNESCO”. Acel domn se afla chiar în faţa ei.\r\n\r\nPeste măsură de buni sunt membrii ansambului “Ciprian Porumbescu”. La fel de talentaţi la muzică şi la dans. Dacă nu aţi ajuns să îi ascultaţi live atunci căutaţi CD-urile lor pentru a va familiariza cât de cât. Două sesiuni artistice – La Capu Câmpului şi la Popasul Turistic Bucovina – ne-au convins că locurile îşi caută generaţiile tinere care să transmită mai departe o multiculturalitate fantastică. Dansurile tradiţionale moldoveneşti s-au îmbinat cu tradiţii austriece, poloneze, evreieşti, ruseşti, ucrainene etc. De altfel, rapsozii bucovineni i-au impresionat pe musafiri, artiştii din Suceava primind deja invitaţii să cânte în ţări precum Tunisia sau Liban.Un regal. Ca şi cel gastronomic care s-a produs de cel puţin două ori pe zi ad-hoc, vorba vine, sau în locuri special amenajate la Capu Câmpului, Moldoviţa ori Ciocăneşti ultima noastră oprire în Bucovina.\r\n\r\nSatul viu, cum are ambiţia de a-l promova Gheorghe Tomoioagă, primarul comunei şi în acelaşi timp un poet profund, a fost prezent într-o “Poiană a meşteşugarilor”, prin ştanduri cu produse tradiţionale, de la brânzeturi până la cârnaţi şi viţei puşi la proţap, slănină afumată ad-hoc şi udată cu ceva ţuică, trainic păzită de... ciobăneştii româneşti. De aici ne îndreptăm spre Transilvania. Pe numărul viitor.\r\n\r\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU','Redescopera Delta Dunarii - rubrica Redescopera Romania octombrie 2011','','inherit','open','open','','716-revision-4','','','2011-10-31 22:10:04','2011-10-31 20:10:04','',716,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/10/31/716-revision-4/',0,'revision','',0),(755,1,'2011-10-31 22:21:52','2011-10-31 20:21:52','TULCEA – Toate pânzele sus !

\r\nSuntem întotdeauna suporterii oricăror idei şi acţiuni, care aduc o valoare în plus promovării turistice. Cu atât mai mult cu cât ele sunt iniţiate de asociaţii ori companii private. Una dintre acestea a fost pusă în operă de Asociaţia Force Turism cu ocazia lansării revistei-catalog Force Turism – ediţia Tulcea. La vizita de documentare, ce a avut ca partener pe InfoTravelRomania, au fost invitaţi travel agenţi, reprezentanţi ai media de specialitate şi ai unor ministere implicate în noul proiect dezvoltat de Beatrice Chiriac, director general al Asociaţiei. Revista, promovată în versiunile româno-engleză lansează în cele 120 de pagini full color, format A4, noi proiecţii despre majoritatea atracţiilor, cunoscute sau mai puţin cunoscute ale judeţului, atipice şi unice. Câteva secvenţe ale acestui infotrip, în rândurile de mai jos.\r\n[gallery orderby=\"rand\"]\r\n\r\n

Este una dintre cele 4 distincţii adjudecate de ţara noastră.\r\n\r\nÎn maratonul nostru am vizitat şi inspectat Complexul turistic Mila 35 – modernizat - construit stil eco cu foarte multe structuri de lemn -, piscină, terenuri de tenis, restaurant cu 120 de locuri, sală de conferinţe cu 60 de locuri, iaz pentru pescuit etc. Pensiunea Cherhana din satul Crişan, aşezată la intersecţia Canalului Sulina cu Canalul Caraorman, e promovată ca singura existentă din Crişan şi una dintre puţinele din Delta Dunării cu clasificare de 5 stele. Complex tip resort, cu vile independente şi un corp central pentru activităţi recreative şi conferinţe. Mai lipsesc facilităţile pentru agrement în aer liber, terenurile de sport, de joacă pentru copii etc.\r\n\r\nO notă maximă pentru ospitalitate am dat pensiunii Eden de la Crişan. Pe deplin meritate cele 4 stele pentru dotările de cazare (10 camere şi 2 apartamente, în total 24 de locuri) dar şi pentru gastronomia locală, pe bază, cum altfel decât de peşte, „administrată” de către Ileana Vasilief. Aceeaşi menţiune şi pentru pensiunea Lotus din Nufăru, o zonă ca la începutul lumii, cu oameni încă timizi în a primi turişti. Investiţia făcută din fonduri europene ca şi bucătăria casei arată că banii au meritat alocaţi iar acum merită cheltuiţi de turişti. Aveţi pe ce! Progrese s-au făcut şi în transportul pe apă. Mucalit de felul său Nicu Bulea, cel care administrează parcul de nave rapide prin firma Prodcon Antreprenor General, e mândru că poate oferi servicii de calitate turiştilor care vin şi vor veni, are el certitudinea, din ce în ce mai mulţi în Delta Dunării „Operăm cu 6 nave rapide cu o capacitate cuprinsă între 54 şi 71 de locuri. Avem curse permanente între Tulcea şi Sulina, Sf. Gheorghe şi Chilia. Plus curse de sezon la cerere pe canalele navigabile ale Deltei”.\r\nDespre Sulina, fantoma turismului românesc care se va trezi foarte curând la viaţă şi alte noutăţi din Delta Dunării, în numărul viitor.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n.....................................................................................\r\n\r\nFIJET: Bucovina şi Transilvania şi-au pus ofertele pe masă (I) \r\n\r\nCe reprezintă FIJET ? Federaţia Internaţională a Jurnaliştilor şi Editorilor de Turism (World Federation of Tourism Journalists and Writers)., cea mai veche asociaţie din această breaslă. A luat fiinţă în 1954, la Paris ca organizaţie non-profit, şi aşa a rămas până azi când din ea fac parte peste 800 de membrii, ce activează în 40 de ţări, prin asociaţii de sine stătătoare, ce reprezintă filiale ale FIJET.\r\n\r\nUN CONGRES NUMIT DORINŢĂ. România a dispărut de pe această piaţă în urmă cu aproape 15 ani, datorită şi faptului că asociaţia care o reprezenta s-a uzat moral şi fizic. Cu mai bine de 3 ani în urmă s-a înfiinţat la Bucureşti, prin voinţa liberă a peste 20 de membrii fondatori Clubul Presei de Turism. Acesta a reuşit, în foarte scurt timp, să readucă preocupările de breaslă în atenţia unor organizaţii internaţionale. În 2008 se reînoadă o tradiţia. Clubul devine membru cu drepturi depline al FIJET, reprezentând România. Foarte, activi, editorii şi scriitorii români - conduşi de Victor Rădulescu -, au reuşit să aducă la Bucureşti trei evenimente: O sesiune de lucrări a Consiliului Director, prilej cu care au fost inspectate mai multe destinaţii turistice de top; Stabilirea şi decernarea a 3 trofee Golden Apple (Pomme D’or), ce au revenit Zonei Mărginimea Sibiului, Rezervaţiei Biosferei Delta Dunării şi companiei aeriene Blue Air (2009) şi, în septembrie, Organizarea celui de-al 53-lea Congres Internaţional FIJET, la Palatul Parlamentului.\r\n\r\nPrecizările sunt necesare pentru că presa generalistă a amestecat rău de tot borcanele speculând din diverse unghiuri politice, dar mai ales dintr-o crasă necunoaştere, faptul că ministerul a cheltuit bani pe tot felul de bazaconii. Nu Ministerul Turismului a creat aceste evenimente ci Clubul Presei de Turism – FIJET România care a propus Ministerului Turismului un parteneriat agreat de finanţare şi promovare. În aceste activităţi s-au implicat administraţii regionale şi locale, organizaţii de promovare turistică şi, fireşte, o serie de firme private.\r\n\r\nLICITAŢII CA LA OLIMPIADE. Într-un asemenea montaj s-a desfăşurat pentru prima dată în România, a Congresul Internaţional al FIJET, a 53-a ediţie, congres care uzual cuprinde o scurtă sesiune de prezentări şi comunicări de profil de două zile. După care urmează circa 6-7 zile în care se realizează vizite de documentare şi familiarizare cu o serie de atracţii turistice (istorie, cultură, gastronomie, natură, tradiţii), reprezentative pentru ţara organizatoare. Tiparul e păstrat de decenii. Iar manifestarea este un foarte bun prilej de promovare şi publicitare a ţării gazdă. De aceea ţara unde urmează să fie organizat Congresul FIJET este licitată cu ani înainte, ca în cazul olimpiadelor ori campionatelor mondiale de fotbal. În ultimii 3 ani evenimentul a fost găzduit de Slovenia, China şi Turcia.\r\n\r\n30 DE ŢĂRI BAT FIERUL CÂT E CALD. Împărţit în două de vizitarea Palatului Parlamentului, al 53-lea Congres internaţional al FIJET a atras la Bucureşti reprezentanţi ai mass-media din 30 de ţări ale lumii. Tema principală sub care s-au desfăşurat lucrările a fost “Patrimoniul cultural mondial în presa de turism” (Explorează grădina Carpaţilor).\r\n\r\nPeste 200 de jurnalişti, editori şi invitaţi, din mai toate ţările Uniunii Europene inclusiv, fireşte din Romania, dar şi din Rusia, Ucraina, Turcia, Liban, Egipt, Tunisia, SUA, Canada, Panama, Mexic şi Venezuela, Liban, Bulgaria, Croaţia, Polonia, Italia, Belgia, Olanda, Spania, Slovacia au ascultat mai multe prezentări, cele ale ţării noastre fiind susţinute de profesorii Gabriela Ţigu (Scurtă istorie a presei de turism din România şi Puiu Nistoreanu (Cum îşi văd tinerii ţara în fotografii), de la catedra de turism a Academiei de Ştiinţe Economice din Bucureşti, membrii ai Clubului Presei de Turism din România. Interesante, cu elemente inedite, care au creat unghiuri noi de percepţie cele două comunicări au fost aplaudate ca la un spectacol de teatru. Aceleaşi aplauze de care s-au bucurat reprezentanţii Egiptului şi Republicii Panama, gazde ale următoarelor două congrese, s-au cuvenit şi Ministerului Turismului, care nu a valorificat ocazia de a-şi promova spoturile de promovare turistică a brandului de ţară. Ei asta e. Nu poţi să le ai pe toate.\r\n\r\n\r\nBUCOVINA – CA UN MĂR DE AUR. Dacă ar fi să definesc într-un singur cuvânt ce m-a impresionat cel mai mult în Bucovina este – Tradiţia. Mai precis păstrarea într-o formă vie a tradiţiilor ne spunea un jurnalist din Rusia. Ea sintetizează toate cele 3 zile cât a durat „raliul” de documentare în judeţul Suceava. Pilotul şef şi ghidul-gazdă a fost Gheorghe Flutur, preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean. După ce a epuizat secvenţele oficiale, schimb de cadouri (de promovare, fireşte) cu Tijanni Hadad, preşedintele FIJET s-a trecut la lucruri grele care au dat savoarea de unicat a acestei fabuloase destinaţii. „Cred că Bucovina este România adevărată. Pentru că aceasta este ceea ce turiştii vor să vadă. Vor să vadă tradiţiile, locuri străvechi şi moştenirea culturală. Această parte a României ar trebui explorată, ar trebui promovată ca o nouă piaţă. Le voi spune prietenilor mei să vină aici, dar şi celorlalţi prin ceea ce vom scrie după această vizită. Vor fi foarte multe articole despre Bucovina” - spunea Tijani. \r\n\r\nGheorghe Flutur, care i-a declarat pe toţi participanţii la Congres „pelerini în Bucovina”, oferindu-le diploma aferentă, a primit la rândul său o plachetă specială din partea FIJET. El şi-a făcut o imagine interesantă în timpul întâlnirilor fireşti cu presa străină. „Unii mi-au spus că Bucovina se diferenţiază de celelalte zone prin tradiţii, cu totul şi cu totul aparte, prin gastronomia extraordinară, căldura oamenilor şi monumentele UNESCO care sunt unice. Alţi jurnalişti au declarat că această zonă a ţării seamănă foarte mult cu ceea ce şi-au imaginat a fi „Grădina din Carpaţi”. Au fost observaţii remarcabile cum că România înseamnă Bucovina şi Bucovina înseamnă România. Când au vorbit despre brandul de ţară, au spus că l-au identificat aici în judeţul Suceava, şi nu am decât să mă bucur.\r\n\r\nSunt mulţumit de impactul vizitei ziariştilor de turism, şi am convingerea că articolele publicate de aceştia vor fi un mare câştig pentru judeţul Suceava”. Flutur a mai declarat că efectele acestei vizite de documentare se vor regăsi în timp în creşterea numărului de turişti străini care vor vizita Bucovina. “Facem în permanenţă investiţii în promovare, dar acesta a fost un moment unic, în ultimele decenii. Nu primim în fiecare zi 200 de jurnalişti străini de turism. A fost un eveniment care ne-a onorat şi pe care l-am onorat ca atare” – a mai precizat preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean Suceava.\r\n\r\nPARCĂ NE-AM AFLAT ÎN ALTĂ LUME. Georges Younes şi Amale Gorra, doi reprezentanţi ai delegaţiei Libanului au rămas şi ei încântaţi: “Este un succes iar ceea ce am vizitat a fost minunat. Fiecare oraş, fiecare sat, fiecare loc ne-a transmis căldura oamenilor. Pâinea cu sare şi produsele tradiţionale ne-au vorbit despre talentul bucovinenilor de a-şi păstra naturaleţea. Mulţumirile noastre se adresează muncii membrilor FIJET România şi organismelor locale care au dorit să ne ofere cât mai mult într-un timp relativ scurt. Voi recomanda tuturor prietenilor mei din Liban să viziteze România dacă doresc să trăiască o experienţă excepţională, unică, pe care n-au întâlnit-o niciodată”. Amale Gorra spune: “Peste tot am fost primiţi cu muzică şi dans. Realmente am avut senzaţia că ne aflăm în altă lume, lipsită de tensiuni. Recomandarea mea este să ajungi aici pentru că o să adori această ţară. Moldova şi Transilvania sunt nişte regiuni în care timpul parcă s-a oprit în loc şi sper că părţi din ele vor rămâne aşa. A fost un excepţional congres prin oamenii pe care i-am întâlnit!”\r\n\r\nO PORŢIE DE AVENTURĂ, DURĂ, DURĂ. Despre asta vor vorbi mai bine sutele de mii de fotografii care au fost făcute la faţa locului. Două felii mari de aventură ne-au fost oferite cu aceeaşi generozitate tot din platoul cu „bucăţi turistice din Bucovina”. Prima a fost pusă la cale de plimbarea cu mocăniţa, tren pe linie îngustă, pe o lungime de peste 18 kilometri. Se mai numeşte şi Huţulca de la Moldoviţa iar investiţiile făcute de români şi austrieci, aduc beneficii turistice. Proiectul de reabilitare a acestei atracţii, de la locomotive şi vagoane, până la linia ferată care prin 2009 nu era funcţională decât cam un kilometru, a fost susţinut de Asociaţia „Calea Ferată Îngustă.” La întoarcere invitaţii au fost „transferaţi” în 30 de căruţe cu care au mers circa 10 kilometri spre Mănăstire Moldoviţa din comuna Vatra Moldoviţei, unde au fost aşteptaţi de primarul Virgil Şaghin. \r\n\r\nDar cea mai dură aventură a fost cea trăită cu plutaşii pe Bistriţa aurie. Am plecat din Ciocăneşti cu mai multe plute. Cum apa era foarte scăzută, cu toate eforturile localnicilor de a amenaja un stăvilar temporar am rămas blocaţi de mai multe ori în diverse praguri ale râului. Salvarea a venit din partea tractoarelor, cândva fabricate în România, marca Universal 650, care după ce se opinteau la greu, de am crezut că o să se dezmembreze în zeci de bucăţi, au reuşit cu succes să ne scoată de fiecare dată din blocaje. Ce industria constructoare de maşini aveam cândva? În final, am legat toate plutele, şi am fost remorcaţi, dacă se poate spune aşa, până la staţia de... sosire. Colegii noştri străini au crezut că toate întâmplările au fost calculate. Când le-am relatat că nimic din ce au trăit nu face parte din program au savurat şi mai mult aventura pe care tocmai o terminaseră.\r\n\r\nCULTURĂ ŞI ISTORIE, ÎNPĂNATE.... CU GASTRONOMIE. Cum arată alte secvenţe ale vizitei în Bucovina? Tradiţii, care surprinzător nu au plictisit pe nimeni. E şi normal. Au fost atât de diverse încât de abia ai putut să le absorbi pe toate. Să amintim de triunghiul mănăstirilor, catedrale sprijinite în cer de pictori de frumos. Sub lumina superbă a zilelor de toamnă o parte din patrimoniul UNESCO ce-l deţine România – ne referim la Voroneţ, Moldoviţa şi Suceviţa -, au strălucit în faţa invitaţilor. Se vede că sunt locuri cu mare circulaţie turistică, maicile fiind nu numai păstrătoare a tradiţiei ci şi foarte buni vectori de comunicare şi gazde în ale gastronomiei. La Moldoviţa a avut loc o întâlnire de gradul zero între Alexandru Crăiuţ, cel care era primarul comunei în 1975, şi Miguel Angel Brera (preşedinte de onoare al FIJET), cel care i-a înmânat atunci primul “Măr de aur”, decernat Mănăstirilor din Bucovina. Oamenii locului cunosc valoarea trofeului. Ca urmare ei l-au închis într-un perete, sub un grilaj, ferecat cu lacăte trainice. Amuzantă a fost prezentarea măicuţei de la Mănăstirea Moldoviţa, care ne-a terorizat cu interdicţiile de a ne fotografia cu “Trofeul pe care ni l-a adus un jurnalist spaniol care conducea organizaţia FIJET, pe acea vreme parte din UNESCO”. Acel domn se afla chiar în faţa ei.\r\n\r\nPeste măsură de buni sunt membrii ansambului “Ciprian Porumbescu”. La fel de talentaţi la muzică şi la dans. Dacă nu aţi ajuns să îi ascultaţi live atunci căutaţi CD-urile lor pentru a va familiariza cât de cât. Două sesiuni artistice – La Capu Câmpului şi la Popasul Turistic Bucovina – ne-au convins că locurile îşi caută generaţiile tinere care să transmită mai departe o multiculturalitate fantastică. Dansurile tradiţionale moldoveneşti s-au îmbinat cu tradiţii austriece, poloneze, evreieşti, ruseşti, ucrainene etc. De altfel, rapsozii bucovineni i-au impresionat pe musafiri, artiştii din Suceava primind deja invitaţii să cânte în ţări precum Tunisia sau Liban.Un regal. Ca şi cel gastronomic care s-a produs de cel puţin două ori pe zi ad-hoc, vorba vine, sau în locuri special amenajate la Capu Câmpului, Moldoviţa ori Ciocăneşti ultima noastră oprire în Bucovina.\r\n\r\nSatul viu, cum are ambiţia de a-l promova Gheorghe Tomoioagă, primarul comunei şi în acelaşi timp un poet profund, a fost prezent într-o “Poiană a meşteşugarilor”, prin ştanduri cu produse tradiţionale, de la brânzeturi până la cârnaţi şi viţei puşi la proţap, slănină afumată ad-hoc şi udată cu ceva ţuică, trainic păzită de... ciobăneştii româneşti. De aici ne îndreptăm spre Transilvania. Pe numărul viitor.\r\n\r\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU','Redescopera Delta Dunarii - rubrica Redescopera Romania octombrie 2011','','inherit','open','open','','716-revision-5','','','2011-10-31 22:21:52','2011-10-31 20:21:52','',716,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/10/31/716-revision-5/',0,'revision','',0),(756,1,'2011-10-31 22:28:08','2011-10-31 20:28:08','TULCEA – Toate pânzele sus ! (I)
\r\nSuntem întotdeauna suporterii oricăror idei şi acţiuni, care aduc o valoare în plus promovării turistice. Cu atât mai mult cu cât ele sunt iniţiate de asociaţii ori companii private. Una dintre acestea a fost pusă în operă de Asociaţia Force Turism cu ocazia lansării revistei-catalog Force Turism – ediţia Tulcea. La vizita de documentare, ce a avut ca partener pe InfoTravelRomania, au fost invitaţi travel agenţi, reprezentanţi ai media de specialitate şi ai unor ministere implicate în noul proiect dezvoltat de Beatrice Chiriac, director general al Asociaţiei. Revista, promovată în versiunile româno-engleză lansează în cele 120 de pagini full color, format A4, noi proiecţii despre majoritatea atracţiilor, cunoscute sau mai puţin cunoscute ale judeţului, atipice şi unice. Câteva secvenţe ale acestui infotrip, în rândurile de mai jos.
O NOUĂ SIGLĂ ŞI O NOUĂ VIZIUNE. O primă şarjă de informaţii a fost oferită la complexul Delta Nature Resort în cadrul întâlnirii cu presa. Nicolae Chichi, vicepreşedinte la Consiliul Judeţean Tulcea a punctat câteva repere din noua identitate culturală a Deltei, care beneficiază şi de o siglă distinctă de promovare. Un prim pas care a fost urmat de proiectele de dezvoltare din cadrul strategiei Dunării, un program ce include 14 state dunărene, România şi Austria fiind doi promotori ai acestuia. Oficialul tulcean a arătat, printre altele, că Ţările Dunărene şi-au propus să deruleze proiecte comune care să creeze valoare adăugată actului turistic. În plus, se află în mişcare programe transfrontaliere semnate între România şi Bulgaria.
\r\nCa urmare Tulcea s-a mişcat rapid progresând în domeniu infrastructurii navale, aminiporturilor turistice şi a infrastructurii rutiere, care să permită un mai bun acces către atracţiile culturale, naturale şi istorice. Deja, primul mini-port a fost inaugurat la Sfântu Gheorghe, celelalte urmând să fie deschise la Sulina şi Murighiol. Deci nu e de mirare că Tulcea ca zonă, este din ce în ce mai căutată de către navele de croaziere fluviale, dar şi de tuorperatori din Turcia, Georgia, Bulgaria etc.\r\nCEASURILE SE REGLEAZĂ DUPĂ PULSUL HOTELIERILOR. Trebuie să spunem că oraşul ca atare a ieşit din amorţire şi acest lucru este vizibil dacă urmăreşti investiţiile hoteliere. Prima oprire a fost la Delta Nature Resort, primul complex de 5 stele apărut în Delta Dunării. Se află în apropierea Tulcei. Aici Maria Apolon, administratorul locaţiei, ne-a prezentat noile investiţii şi strategia cu care vor fi abordaţi anul viitor clienţii ce vor veni în vacanţe aici. O degustare de vinuri de Măcin, ne-a adus aminte de savuroasele arome din podgoria Sarica Niculiţel.\r\nChiar dacă anul trecut a fost horor pentru hotelierii din Tulcea investiţiile nu au stagnat. Şi bine au făcut oamenii de afaceri pentru că pe vremuri de criză trebuie să rişti. Hristu Caraman, o legendă vie a acestor locuri patronează Complexul Delta, cu două hoteluri de 3 şi respectiv 4 stele. Primul deţine 234 de locuri, celălalt 188 în camere single, duble, deluxe şi apartamente. Omul este optimist din fire pentru că: „Anul trecut a fost atât de prost încât ne-am gândit la un moment dat să vindem. Cui, nu prea ştiam!\r\n\r\nÎn acest sezon ne-am scos pârleala pentru 2010 care a fost un dezastru. Gradul de ocupare de peste 90%, ne este asigurat de agenţiile de turism, operatorii de croaziere, de afacerile din portul oraşului, evenimente etc. Mai avem avantajul că asigurăm direct, cu mijloace proprii, excursii în Delta Dunării, cu vase de capacitate mare, elegante, dotate cu restaurant şi bar”.
complexul Esplanada Parc (săli de conferinţe, spaţii de cazare la etajul 1 şi o bucătărie impecabil dotată), o bijuterile de construcţie care se bucură de mare succes. Şi la el 2011 a urcat în încasări şi anunţă un an viitor cel puţin rezonabil în evenimente sociale şi turistice. La rândul său Mihai, directorul hotelului Rex din Tulcea, a fost încântat să ne prezinte viitorul Puflene Resort, aflat în fază de şantier. Acesta va schimba fundamental înfăţişarea localităţii Murighiol nu numai sub aspectul locurilor de muncă. Va fi gata anul viitor, dacă şi timpul şi finanţarea vor lucra favorabil. Atunci va promova pe piaţa locală 300 de locuri de cazare, 5 săli de conferinţă, un casinou, Centre Spa şi de Fitness, piscină la dimensiuni olimpice, terenuri de tenis şi fotbal, resturante şi baruri.\r\n\r\nCARE E BĂTAIA PEŞTELUI ÎN DELTA DUNĂRII! O croazieră pe canalele Deltei cu mai multe stopuri şi cazări ne-a arătat cât de greu este să navigezi în ape foarte scăzute dar cât de plăcut este să faci turism atunci când te pricepi la acest lucru. „Ghidul” nostru ocazional este chiar inginer piscicol. Dar Cristina Dinu, directorul Institutului de Cercetări Eco-Muzeale Tulcea (ICEM) s-a dovedit a fi mai mult decât o gazdă colocvială. Mai întâi trebuie să vă spunem că nu aţi înţeles nimic din Tulcea dacă nu aţi vizitat Centrul muzeal eco-turistic. S-a construit pe baza unui proiect transfrontalier, finanţat din bani europeni şi s-a deschis în urmă cu doi ani. Conceptul muzeal reuneşte o colecţie fabuloasă şi un Acvariu, unul dintre cele mai moderne din Europa. Deţine peste 69.000 de bunuri culturale, cele mai vechi piese datând din 1950, de la bogata floră şi faună pînă la speciile care trăiesc în zona deltaică şi a Mării Negre. „Mesajul suprem este Descoperă, iubeşte şi protejează Delta Dunării!” Chiar la intrarea în muzeu se află expus trofeul Mărul de aur (Golden Apple), decernat în urmă cu doi ani Rezervaţiei Delta Dunării, de către FIJET, pe baza propunerilor Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET România. Este una dintre cele 4 distincţii adjudecate de ţara noastră.\r\n\r\nÎn maratonul nostru am vizitat şi inspectat Complexul turistic Mila 35 – modernizat - construit stil eco cu foarte multe structuri de lemn -, piscină, terenuri de tenis, restaurant cu 120 de locuri, sală de conferinţe cu 60 de locuri, iaz pentru pescuit etc. Pensiunea Cherhana din satul Crişan, aşezată la intersecţia Canalului Sulina cu Canalul Caraorman, e promovată ca singura existentă din Crişan şi una dintre puţinele din Delta Dunării cu clasificare de 5 stele. Complex tip resort, cu vile independente şi un corp central pentru activităţi recreative şi conferinţe. Mai lipsesc facilităţile pentru agrement în aer liber, terenurile de sport, de joacă pentru copii etc.\r\n\r\nO notă maximă pentru ospitalitate am dat pensiunii Eden de la Crişan. Pe deplin meritate cele 4 stele pentru dotările de cazare (10 camere şi 2 apartamente, în total 24 de locuri) dar şi pentru gastronomia locală, pe bază, cum altfel decât de peşte, „administrată” de către Ileana Vasilief. Aceeaşi menţiune şi pentru pensiunea Lotus din Nufăru, o zonă ca la începutul lumii, cu oameni încă timizi în a primi turişti. Investiţia făcută din fonduri europene ca şi bucătăria casei arată că banii au meritat alocaţi iar acum merită cheltuiţi de turişti. Aveţi pe ce! Progrese s-au făcut şi în transportul pe apă. Mucalit de felul său Nicu Bulea, cel care administrează parcul de nave rapide prin firma Prodcon Antreprenor General, e mândru că poate oferi servicii de calitate turiştilor care vin şi vor veni, are el certitudinea, din ce în ce mai mulţi în Delta Dunării „Operăm cu 6 nave rapide cu o capacitate cuprinsă între 54 şi 71 de locuri.

Tema principală sub care s-au desfăşurat lucrările a fost “Patrimoniul cultural mondial în presa de turism” (Explorează grădina Carpaţilor).\r\n\r\nPeste 200 de jurnalişti, editori şi invitaţi, din mai toate ţările Uniunii Europene inclusiv, fireşte din Romania, dar şi din Rusia, Ucraina, Turcia, Liban, Egipt, Tunisia, SUA, Canada, Panama, Mexic şi Venezuela, Liban, Bulgaria, Croaţia, Polonia, Italia, Belgia, Olanda, Spania, Slovacia au ascultat mai multe prezentări, cele ale ţării noastre fiind susţinute de profesorii Gabriela Ţigu (Scurtă istorie a presei de turism din România şi Puiu Nistoreanu (Cum îşi văd tinerii ţara în fotografii), de la catedra de turism a Academiei de Ştiinţe Economice din Bucureşti, membrii ai Clubului Presei de Turism din România. Interesante, cu elemente inedite, care au creat unghiuri noi de percepţie cele două comunicări au fost aplaudate ca la un spectacol de teatru. Aceleaşi aplauze de care s-au bucurat reprezentanţii Egiptului şi Republicii Panama, gazde ale următoarelor două congrese, s-au cuvenit şi Ministerului Turismului, care nu a valorificat ocazia de a-şi promova spoturile de promovare turistică a brandului de ţară. Ei asta e. Nu poţi să le ai pe toate.\r\n\r\n\r\nBUCOVINA – CA UN MĂR DE AUR. Dacă ar fi să definesc într-un singur cuvânt ce m-a impresionat cel mai mult în Bucovina este – Tradiţia. Mai precis păstrarea într-o formă vie a tradiţiilor ne spunea un jurnalist din Rusia. Ea sintetizează toate cele 3 zile cât a durat „raliul” de documentare în judeţul Suceava. Pilotul şef şi ghidul-gazdă a fost Gheorghe Flutur, preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean. După ce a epuizat secvenţele oficiale, schimb de cadouri (de promovare, fireşte) cu Tijanni Hadad, preşedintele FIJET s-a trecut la lucruri grele care au dat savoarea de unicat a acestei fabuloase destinaţii. „Cred că Bucovina este România adevărată. Pentru că aceasta este ceea ce turiştii vor să vadă. Vor să vadă tradiţiile, locuri străvechi şi moştenirea culturală. Această parte a României ar trebui explorată, ar trebui promovată ca o nouă piaţă. Le voi spune prietenilor mei să vină aici, dar şi celorlalţi prin ceea ce vom scrie după această vizită. Vor fi foarte multe articole despre Bucovina” - spunea Tijani. \r\n\r\nGheorghe Flutur, care i-a declarat pe toţi participanţii la Congres „pelerini în Bucovina”, oferindu-le diploma aferentă, a primit la rândul său o plachetă specială din partea FIJET. El şi-a făcut o imagine interesantă în timpul întâlnirilor fireşti cu presa străină. „Unii mi-au spus că Bucovina se diferenţiază de celelalte zone prin tradiţii, cu totul şi cu totul aparte, prin gastronomia extraordinară, căldura oamenilor şi monumentele UNESCO care sunt unice. Alţi jurnalişti au declarat că această zonă a ţării seamănă foarte mult cu ceea ce şi-au imaginat a fi „Grădina din Carpaţi”. Au fost observaţii remarcabile cum că România înseamnă Bucovina şi Bucovina înseamnă România. Când au vorbit despre brandul de ţară, au spus că l-au identificat aici în judeţul Suceava, şi nu am decât să mă bucur.\r\n\r\nSunt mulţumit de impactul vizitei ziariştilor de turism, şi am convingerea că articolele publicate de aceştia vor fi un mare câştig pentru judeţul Suceava”. Flutur a mai declarat că efectele acestei vizite de documentare se vor regăsi în timp în creşterea numărului de turişti străini care vor vizita Bucovina. “Facem în permanenţă investiţii în promovare, dar acesta a fost un moment unic, în ultimele decenii. Nu primim în fiecare zi 200 de jurnalişti străini de turism. A fost un eveniment care ne-a onorat şi pe care l-am onorat ca atare” – a mai precizat preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean Suceava.\r\n\r\nPARCĂ NE-AM AFLAT ÎN ALTĂ LUME. Georges Younes şi Amale Gorra, doi reprezentanţi ai delegaţiei Libanului au rămas şi ei încântaţi: “Este un succes iar ceea ce am vizitat a fost minunat. Fiecare oraş, fiecare sat, fiecare loc ne-a transmis căldura oamenilor. Pâinea cu sare şi produsele tradiţionale ne-au vorbit despre talentul bucovinenilor de a-şi păstra naturaleţea. Mulţumirile noastre se adresează muncii membrilor FIJET România şi organismelor locale care au dorit să ne ofere cât mai mult într-un timp relativ scurt. Voi recomanda tuturor prietenilor mei din Liban să viziteze România dacă doresc să trăiască o experienţă excepţională, unică, pe care n-au întâlnit-o niciodată”. Amale Gorra spune: “Peste tot am fost primiţi cu muzică şi dans. Realmente am avut senzaţia că ne aflăm în altă lume, lipsită de tensiuni. Recomandarea mea este să ajungi aici pentru că o să adori această ţară. Moldova şi Transilvania sunt nişte regiuni în care timpul parcă s-a oprit în loc şi sper că părţi din ele vor rămâne aşa. A fost un excepţional congres prin oamenii pe care i-am întâlnit!”\r\n\r\nO PORŢIE DE AVENTURĂ, DURĂ, DURĂ. Despre asta vor vorbi mai bine sutele de mii de fotografii care au fost făcute la faţa locului. Două felii mari de aventură ne-au fost oferite cu aceeaşi generozitate tot din platoul cu „bucăţi turistice din Bucovina”. Prima a fost pusă la cale de plimbarea cu mocăniţa, tren pe linie îngustă, pe o lungime de peste 18 kilometri. Se mai numeşte şi Huţulca de la Moldoviţa iar investiţiile făcute de români şi austrieci, aduc beneficii turistice. Proiectul de reabilitare a acestei atracţii, de la locomotive şi vagoane, până la linia ferată care prin 2009 nu era funcţională decât cam un kilometru, a fost susţinut de Asociaţia „Calea Ferată Îngustă.” La întoarcere invitaţii au fost „transferaţi” în 30 de căruţe cu care au mers circa 10 kilometri spre Mănăstire Moldoviţa din comuna Vatra Moldoviţei, unde au fost aşteptaţi de primarul Virgil Şaghin. \r\n\r\nDar cea mai dură aventură a fost cea trăită cu plutaşii pe Bistriţa aurie. Am plecat din Ciocăneşti cu mai multe plute. Cum apa era foarte scăzută, cu toate eforturile localnicilor de a amenaja un stăvilar temporar am rămas blocaţi de mai multe ori în diverse praguri ale râului. Salvarea a venit din partea tractoarelor, cândva fabricate în România, marca Universal 650, care după ce se opinteau la greu, de am crezut că o să se dezmembreze în zeci de bucăţi, au reuşit cu succes să ne scoată de fiecare dată din blocaje. Ce industria constructoare de maşini aveam cândva? În final, am legat toate plutele, şi am fost remorcaţi, dacă se poate spune aşa, până la staţia de... sosire. Colegii noştri străini au crezut că toate întâmplările au fost calculate. Când le-am relatat că nimic din ce au trăit nu face parte din program au savurat şi mai mult aventura pe care tocmai o terminaseră.\r\n\r\nCULTURĂ ŞI ISTORIE, ÎNPĂNATE.... CU GASTRONOMIE. Cum arată alte secvenţe ale vizitei în Bucovina? Tradiţii, care surprinzător nu au plictisit pe nimeni. E şi normal. Au fost atât de diverse încât de abia ai putut să le absorbi pe toate. Să amintim de triunghiul mănăstirilor, catedrale sprijinite în cer de pictori de frumos. Sub lumina superbă a zilelor de toamnă o parte din patrimoniul UNESCO ce-l deţine România – ne referim la Voroneţ, Moldoviţa şi Suceviţa -, au strălucit în faţa invitaţilor. Se vede că sunt locuri cu mare circulaţie turistică, maicile fiind nu numai păstrătoare a tradiţiei ci şi foarte buni vectori de comunicare şi gazde în ale gastronomiei. La Moldoviţa a avut loc o întâlnire de gradul zero între Alexandru Crăiuţ, cel care era primarul comunei în 1975, şi Miguel Angel Brera (preşedinte de onoare al FIJET), cel care i-a înmânat atunci primul “Măr de aur”, decernat Mănăstirilor din Bucovina. Oamenii locului cunosc valoarea trofeului. Ca urmare ei l-au închis într-un perete, sub un grilaj, ferecat cu lacăte trainice. Amuzantă a fost prezentarea măicuţei de la Mănăstirea Moldoviţa, care ne-a terorizat cu interdicţiile de a ne fotografia cu “Trofeul pe care ni l-a adus un jurnalist spaniol care conducea organizaţia FIJET, pe acea vreme parte din UNESCO”. Acel domn se afla chiar în faţa ei.\r\n\r\nPeste măsură de buni sunt membrii ansambului “Ciprian Porumbescu”. La fel de talentaţi la muzică şi la dans. Dacă nu aţi ajuns să îi ascultaţi live atunci căutaţi CD-urile lor pentru a va familiariza cât de cât. Două sesiuni artistice – La Capu Câmpului şi la Popasul Turistic Bucovina – ne-au convins că locurile îşi caută generaţiile tinere care să transmită mai departe o multiculturalitate fantastică. Dansurile tradiţionale moldoveneşti s-au îmbinat cu tradiţii austriece, poloneze, evreieşti, ruseşti, ucrainene etc. De altfel, rapsozii bucovineni i-au impresionat pe musafiri, artiştii din Suceava primind deja invitaţii să cânte în ţări precum Tunisia sau Liban.Un regal. Ca şi cel gastronomic care s-a produs de cel puţin două ori pe zi ad-hoc, vorba vine, sau în locuri special amenajate la Capu Câmpului, Moldoviţa ori Ciocăneşti ultima noastră oprire în Bucovina.\r\n\r\nSatul viu, cum are ambiţia de a-l promova Gheorghe Tomoioagă, primarul comunei şi în acelaşi timp un poet profund, a fost prezent într-o “Poiană a meşteşugarilor”, prin ştanduri cu produse tradiţionale, de la brânzeturi până la cârnaţi şi viţei puşi la proţap, slănină afumată ad-hoc şi udată cu ceva ţuică, trainic păzită de... ciobăneştii româneşti. De aici ne îndreptăm spre Transilvania. Pe numărul viitor.\r\n\r\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU','Redescopera Delta Dunarii - rubrica Redescopera Romania octombrie 2011','','inherit','open','open','','716-revision-6','','','2011-10-31 22:28:08','2011-10-31 20:28:08','',716,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/10/31/716-revision-6/',0,'revision','',0),(757,1,'2011-10-31 22:54:58','2011-10-31 20:54:58','CIPRU – Ce poţi vinde în 10.000 de ani !\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Cipru-026.jpg\" "\\"Cipru")

\r\nCă vor sau nu, hotelierii trebuie să facă faţă unei noi specii. Negociatorii duri de tarife. Ei au în faţă un tablou cu oferte din ce în ce mai complexe, cu tarife care sunt comprimate de criza turiştilor. Indiferent că sunt agenţii, companii de turism sau călători individuali concurenţa şi rezervările on-line au înblânzit preţurile la cazare.

Comisia Europeană şi-a propus să dezvolte un proiect-pilot cu perspective turistice la care a fost invitată să participe şi România. După cum a anunţat Antonio Tajani, vicepreşedintele Comisiei, responsabil pentru Industrie şi Antreprenoriat, iniţiativa vizează asocierea unor companii aeriene cu importanţi tour-operatori în scopul de a atrage spre Europa cât mai mulţi turişti din America de Sud. Cel mai important segment, vizează creşterea circulaţiei în afara sezoanelor, pentru care vor fi oferite pachete cu preţuri extrem de atractive. Până în prezent, au fost semnate acorduri cu Bazilia, Chile şi Argentina.\r\nDintre membrii UE au aderat deja la acest acord Spania, Franţa, Italia şi Lituania, urmând ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/europa-2.jpg\" "\\"europa")
să li se alăture curând Portugalia şi Polonia. România este şi ea interesată de acest proiect european. Mai mult, ministrul Elena Udrea a subliniat în cadrul unei discuţii cu vicepreşedintele Tajani că “în viitorul buget european, pentru perioada 2014-2020, este necesară o puternică susţinere financiară a turismului iar în acest scop va fi nevoie de realizarea unui brand comun de turism pentru Europa. Alte două pieţe care vor trebui abordate cu pachete atractive sunt Rusia şi China”.\r\nALEX BARBU\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nRomânia a revenit în elita OMT\r\n\r\nRomânia a fost aleasă, în Coreea de Sud, să ocupe funcţia de prim-vicepreşedinte în Consiliul Executiv al OMT. Evenimentul s-a consumat la jumătatea lunii octombrie la cea de-a XIX-a Adunare Generală a Organizaţiei Mondiale a Turismului (OMT). Poziţia va fi deţinută timp de un an pe parcursul căruia ţara noastră se va implica în promovarea unor proiecte de anvergură europeană şi globală. „Este o reuşită de care suntem foarte mândri, întrucât acordarea funcţiei de prim-vicepreşedinte al OMT reprezintă un vot de încredere,

dar şi o recunoaştere din partea ţărilor membre ale organizaţiei faţă de evoluţia pozitivă a turismului din România. Deţinerea unui loc în Consiliul Executiv, şi cu atât mai mult a unei funcţii de conducere, constituie un avantaj pentru noi, atât în ceea ce priveşte dezvoltarea domeniului turismului, cât şi din punctul de vedere al promovării imaginii ţării” - a declarat Elena Udrea, după momentul votului. Ministrul turismului i-a mulţumit secretarului general al OMT, Taleb RIFAI, pentru susţinerea acordată României, susţinere exprimată încă din luna iulie a acestui an, când acesta a făcut o vizită de documentare în România.\r\n\r\nOMT, organizaţie specializată a Naţiunilor Unite, constituie cel mai important for internaţional în domeniul călătoriilor şi al turismului. A fost înfiinţată la Haga, în 1925, ca Uniune a Organizaţiilor Oficiale de Publicitate Turistică. Actuala denumire datează din 1975 iar România este membru fondator. Ea a mai ocupat, în 2009, un post în Consiliul Executiv, iar anul trecut, funcţia de vicepreşedinte al OMT.

Variante de diversificare şi îmbunătăţire a serviciilor oferite de hotelierii români, principalele trenduri pe piaţa germană, dar şi specificul turistului german au fost câteva dintre subiectele abordate.\r\n\r\n PATRONATELE VĂ CHEAMĂ LA MUNTE\r\n\r\nFederaţia Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc împreună cu Asociaţia Naţională a Agenţiilor de Turism, au relansat programul \"O săptămână la munte\" – ajunsă la cea de-a VII-a ediţie.

Comisia Europeană şi-a propus să dezvolte un proiect-pilot cu perspective turistice la care a fost invitată să participe şi România. După cum a anunţat Antonio Tajani, vicepreşedintele Comisiei, responsabil pentru Industrie şi Antreprenoriat, iniţiativa vizează asocierea unor companii aeriene cu importanţi tour-operatori în scopul de a atrage spre Europa cât mai mulţi turişti din America de Sud. Cel mai important segment, vizează creşterea circulaţiei în afara sezoanelor, pentru care vor fi oferite pachete cu preţuri extrem de atractive. Până în prezent, au fost semnate acorduri cu Bazilia, Chile şi Argentina.\nDintre membrii UE au aderat deja la acest acord Spania, Franţa, Italia şi Lituania, urmând să li se alăture curând Portugalia şi Polonia. România este şi ea interesată de acest proiect european. Mai mult, ministrul Elena Udrea a subliniat în cadrul unei discuţii cu vicepreşedintele Tajani că “în viitorul buget european, pentru perioada 2014-2020, este necesară o puternică susţinere financiară a turismului iar în acest scop va fi nevoie de realizarea unui brand comun de turism pentru Europa.

“Europe is younger in Bucharest”
\r\nThis is the phrase that resumes the positioning of Bucharest on the tourism market, the idea being proposed by the consultant contracted by MDRT in order to conceive the Tourism marketing plan for Bucharest 2011-2015. The analysis of Détente Consultants shows the actual situation of the tourism in the capital city, related to aspects of the evolution of urban tourism in other European countries.
\r\nAccording to it the tourism development of Bucharest must be aimed on business and city-break tourism (that include other products such as cultural tourism or events). The specialists believe that promoting the city must think about the future perspective not only about the past. In their opinion the city must recommend itself different from other capitals, in continuous changing, with more cultural, artistic and sportive events. The slogan that concentrates all these ideas would be “Europe is younger in Bucharest”. The main aimed targets are: business people, young, city-breakers, senior groups and themed groups (medical and health tourism for example).\r\n\r\n\r\n

Asociaţia profesioniştilor de Turism din România a lansat şi promovat în această lună proiectul „Traseu turistic în zonele istorice, naturale de recreere şi agrement din Maramureş şi Bucovina”. El este finanţat prin Programul operaţional Regional 2007-2013. După cum a precizat Cristian Petrescu, preşedintele APTR „proiectul are ca scop creşterea circulaţiei turistice, precum şi a gradului de cunoaştere a unei părţi din istoria României, îmbinată armonios cu potenţialul turistic natural, prin promovarea traseului „Satu Mare – Baia Mare – Sighetu Marmaţiei – Vişeul de Sus – Borşa – Iacobeni – Câmpulung Moldovenesc – Suceava – Rădăuţi”.\r\n\r\nEl se cuprinde un traseu de circa 450 de kilometri.

Pilotul de Formula 2 Mihai Marinescu va continua să promoveze turismul românesc în cadrul unor competiţii internaţionale. Marinescu este partenerul MDRT în campaniile de promovare a României turistice încă din 2009. În anul 2011, pilotul român poartă pe echipament insemnele brandului naţional de turism pe care le are afişate şi pe monopostul cu care concurează. În urma victoriei înregistrată în circuitul de la Monza (Italia), Marinescu a urcat în clasamentul general de Formula 2 pe locul 5.\r\nBrandul turistic al României a mai fost promovat recent în cadrul Finalei GP2 Series de la Abu Dhabi, desfăşurată între 10 şi 13 noiembrie. Evoluţia spectaculoasă a lui Marinescu, a făcut ca acesta să se regăsească în prim-planul camerelor de luat vederi în peste 10 % din timpul total al transmisiunilor live. Participarea la “Finala GP2 Series” a fost urmărită de aproximativ 200.000 de spectatori în tribune. Evenimentul transmis în aproximativ 179 de ţări, a cunoscut o audienţă de aproximativ 150 de milioane de telespectatori.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/event-Marinescu.jpg\" "\\"event")
\r\n\r\nElena Udrea a declarat că această colaborare va continua şi în 2012. „L-am ales pe Mihai ca promotor al turismului nostru prin competiţia F2 deoarece, din analiza indicatorilor de audienţă din sport, a rezultat că, la nivel mondial, competiţiile automobilistice sunt pe locul doi în topul audienţei.\r\nÎn plus, ţările în care se desfăşoară etapele de campionat sunt pieţe importante pentru turismul românesc: Austria, Germania, Marea Britanie, Franţa, Spania, Ungaria.”, a declarat ministrul român. „Este o onoare pentru mine să reprezint sportul românesc la acest nivel. Mă bucur că am adus în ţară un trofeu dar nu vreau să mă opresc aici, ci doresc să reprezint România şi în F1”- a adăugat Marinescu.\r\nION BADEA\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nS-a închis sezonul la... rafting\r\n\r\n
![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/rafting-1.jpg\" "\\"rafting")
Daca nu ştiţi v-o spunem noi. Sezonul de rafting în judeţul Suceava s-a închis cu competiţia “Tradiţii şi adrenalină pe Bistriţa”. Evenimentul a atras aproximativ 50 de practicanţi de sporturi nautice – de la cei înnebuniţi după ambarcaţiuni clasice până la localnicii care s-au dat cu... pluta. A fost primul concurs în care s-a dorit împletirea “aventurii cu istoria, Bistriţa aurie, fiind folosită încă de pe vremea lui Ştefan cel mare pentru transportul buştenilor. Am dorit să închidem sezonul într-un context inedit, într-o zonă turistică recunoscută pe plan internaţional” – ne-a spus Ana Maria Biela, reprezentantul organizatorilor.\r\n\r\nStartul s-a dat din comuna Satu Mare, iar participanţii şi-au testat abilităţile pe o distanţa ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Rafting-2.jpg\" "\\"Rafting")
de 11 kilometri folosind patru categorii de ambarcaţiuni: caiac white water, caiac de tură, canoe şi raft. Concurenţii s-au întrecut la două probe: “Duşi pe val”, respectiv “Slalom”. Toată lumea prezentă a avut de câştigat. Spectatorii au urmărit şi o demostraţie de plutărit iar localnicii le-au arătat cum se construia o ambarcaţiune de acest gen, folosită de-a lungul a sute de ani pentru transportul lemnului. Evenimentul a fost organizat de către asociaţia “Bărci şi Bagaje” şi a fost încurajat de către Consiliul Judeţean Suceava.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n- SUNTEM ŞI NOI PE LOCUL 1 ÎN TOP. Conform Eurostat (Oficiul European de Statistică) cei mai mulţi membrii ai Uniunii Europene care şi-au petrecut vacanţa şi concediile în ţara lor de origine sunt cei din... România (94%). Suntem urmaţi de Spania (92%), Bulgaria şi Grecia (ambele cu 91%). O altă observaţie este că în toate statele UE ponderea vacanţelor scurte a crescut în detrimentul concediilor lungi, excepţie făcând de la acest raport, Grecia.\r\n\r\n- TURIŞTII DIN EMIRATELE ARABE UNITE ar putea fi interesaţi de potenţialul şi diversitatea atracţiilor din România. Cel puţin aşa a reieşit din dialogul purtat de ministrul Elena Udrea cu ambasadorul Emiratelor Arabe Unite la Bucureşti, Yacub Yousif Alhosani. Cei doi oficiali au ajuns la concluzia că pentru a deveni realitate acest aspect trebuie corelat cu simplificarea procedurii de acordare a vizelor pentru cei interesaţi să vină în România. Ministrul român al turismului a subliniat şi ideea atragerii unor investitori din regiunea Golfului, dispuşi să se implice în dezvoltarea acestei industrii. În acest scop ambasadorul Alhosani i-a înmânat Elenei Udrea invitaţia adresată de către E.S. Şeic Lubna Bint Khalid Al Qasimi, ministrul Comerţului Exterior din EAU, de a participa la cea de-a doua ediţie a Întâlnirii Anuale pentru Investiţii, în luna mai a anului viitor în Dubai.\r\n\r\n- O ANIVERSARE INEDITĂ. Societatea Română de Radiodifuziune şi Compania Naţională Aeroporturi Bucureşti au organizat, în parteneriat evenimentul aniversar „Radio România – 83 de ani”. Astfel pe Aeroportul Internaţional Henri Coandă Bucureşti pasagerii care au tranzitat aeroportul au asistat la o serie de surprize printre care: transmisia live a emisiunii „Matinal”, din incinta Terminalului Plecări Internaţionale a AIHCB, recitaluri de jazz ale Big Band-ului Radiodifuziunii, Orchestrei Populare Radio şi Corului Radio de Copii.\r\n\r\n- O ŞCOALĂ CU 200 DE ABSOLVENŢI. În primii doi ani de funcţionare Şcoala de Turism organizată de către agenţia Eximtur a oferit pentru 200 de tineri ocazia de a se pregăti şi progresa în carieră pentru meserii ca: Agent de turism-ghid, ghid naţional de turism-touroperator, tehnician în hotelarie şi manager în activitatea de turism. Durata cursurilor variază între 5 şi 30 de săptămâni, cu predare în regim de weekend. “Şcoala de Turism Eximtur este un proiect de suflet prin care încercăm să împărtăşim câte ceva din experienţa dobândită de noi. Nevoia de a lucra cu personal calificat a fost motorul principal al Şcolii. Ce am adus noi în plus? Legătura între partea teoretică şi practică, studii de caz, prezentare softuri specifice de rezervări, practica realizată în agenţii şi hoteluri, argumente care atrag din ce în ce mai mulţi cursanţi” – ne-a precizat Lucia Morariu, directorul general al companiei Eximtur.\r\n\r\n- 80 DE ARTIŞTI VĂ INVITĂ LA UN SALON SPECIAL. Până pe 23 ianuarie 2012, Muzeul Naţional Cotroceni vă invită în Spaţiile Cantacuzine la cea de-a XII-a ediţie a Salonului Naţional de Artă Decorativă, manifestare intrată în tradiţia instituţiei. Actuala manifestare reuneşte peste 80 de artişti plastici, care expun în tehnici mixte, lucrări de tapiserie, imprimeuri textile, porţelan, sticlă, metal. Printre expozanţi se numără Cela Neamţu, Daniela Frumuşanu, Daniela Făiniş, Gherghina Costea, Cristina Bolborea, Mihai Ţopescu, Gheorghe Gogescu, Nicolae Zîmbroianu, dar şi reprezentanţi ai tinerei generaţii ca Roxana Elena Pitz, Nicoleta Buzea, Adela Bonaţ, Teodora Chiroşcă, Mihaela Diaconu etc. Traveller Magazin este unul dintre partenerii media ai manifestării.\r\n\r\n- CĂ TOT VINE IARNA. E bine să ne gândim şi la o cămară, aprovizionată pe măsură. Mai multe sugestii au fost strânse într-un eveniment organizat de către hotelul Aro Palace împreună cu Asociaţia pentru Promovarea şi Dezvoltarea Turismului din judeţul Braşov. El s-a numit chiar „Cămara de iarnă’’. Vizitatorii au fost invitaţi să deguste şi să admire expoziţia de murături dar şi să petreacă pe terasa de pe Cetate cu vin fiert, pastramă la gratar şi muzică bună. Nu au lipsit nici comercianţii de artizanat, miere, turtă dulce, migdale trase în zahăr, brânzeturi, zacuscă, gemuri ca la bunica, decoraţiuni etc.\r\n\r\n - UNDE VA PRINDE VIAŢĂ JULES VERNE? Un proiect mai vechi capătă contur. În Pasul Vâlcan va fi construită încă o telegondolă, noi instalaţii de teleschi, cabane şi un... castel. Şi nu este vorba de orice castel. De aceea autorităţile locale sunt interesate să atragă investitori capabili să se implice în construirea Castelului din Carpaţi aşa cum este el descris în romanul celebrului Jules Verne. Noua telegondolă care va face legătura cu staţiunea Straja ar urma să aibă o staţie chiar în acel loc. Angela Stoica, viceprimarul municipiului Vulcan, a arătat că în prima etapă a proiectului, unde investiţia a fost de aproximativ 33 de milioane de lei, a fost construită telegondola între cotele 770-1310 metri din Pasul Vâlcan, s-a amenajat partia de schi, o parcare, drumul de acces la staţiile superioară şi inferioară ale telegondolei. Valoarea finală a proiectului se ridică la 28 milioane de euro.\r\n\r\n

- POATE N-O SĂ CREDEŢI DAR... Castelul Huniazilor, sau Castelul Corvinilor cum mai este cunoscut, se află într-un top foarte select. Construcţia reprezentativă pentru perioada Evului Mediu şi unul dintre cele mai importante edificii cu arhitectură gotică din România, a fost inclusă de lonelyplanet.com în topul celor mai frumoase castele din Europa. După cum se ştie el a fost construit pe la jumătatea secolului al XV-lea de principele Iancu de Hunedoara şi a fost extins de fiul său, regele Matei Corvin (Mathyas Corvin), rămaşi în istorie pentru apărarea Transilvaniei în faţa expansiunii Imperiului Otoman.

Evenimentul a atras aproximativ 50 de practicanţi de sporturi nautice – de la cei înnebuniţi după ambarcaţiuni clasice până la localnicii care s-au dat cu... pluta. A fost primul concurs în care s-a dorit împletirea “aventurii cu istoria, Bistriţa aurie, fiind folosită încă de pe vremea lui Ştefan cel mare pentru transportul buştenilor. Am dorit să închidem sezonul într-un context inedit, într-o zonă turistică recunoscută pe plan internaţional” – ne-a spus Ana Maria Biela, reprezentantul organizatorilor.\n\nStartul s-a dat din comuna Satu Mare, iar participanţii şi-au testat abilităţile pe o distanţa de 11 kilometri folosind patru categorii de ambarcaţiuni: caiac white water, caiac de tură, canoe şi raft. Concurenţii s-au întrecut la două probe: “Duşi pe val”, respectiv “Slalom”. Toată lumea prezentă a avut de câştigat. Spectatorii au urmărit şi o demostraţie de plutărit iar localnicii le-au arătat cum se construia o ambarcaţiune de acest gen, folosită de-a lungul a sute de ani pentru transportul lemnului. Evenimentul a fost organizat de către asociaţia “Bărci şi Bagaje” şi a fost încurajat de către Consiliul Judeţean Suceava.\n\n
\n\n- SUNTEM ŞI NOI PE LOCUL 1 ÎN TOP. Conform Eurostat (Oficiul European de Statistică) cei mai mulţi membrii ai Uniunii Europene care şi-au petrecut vacanţa şi concediile în ţara lor de origine sunt cei din... România (94%). Suntem urmaţi de Spania (92%), Bulgaria şi Grecia (ambele cu 91%). O altă observaţie este că în toate statele UE ponderea vacanţelor scurte a crescut în detrimentul concediilor lungi, excepţie făcând de la acest raport, Grecia.\n\n- TURIŞTII DIN EMIRATELE ARABE UNITE ar putea fi interesaţi de potenţialul şi diversitatea atracţiilor din România. Cel puţin aşa a reieşit din dialogul purtat de ministrul Elena Udrea cu ambasadorul Emiratelor Arabe Unite la Bucureşti, Yacub Yousif Alhosani. Cei doi oficiali au ajuns la concluzia că pentru a deveni realitate acest aspect trebuie corelat cu simplificarea procedurii de acordare a vizelor pentru cei interesaţi să vină în România. Ministrul român al turismului a subliniat şi ideea atragerii unor investitori din regiunea Golfului, dispuşi să se implice în dezvoltarea acestei industrii. În acest scop ambasadorul Alhosani i-a înmânat Elenei Udrea invitaţia adresată de către E.S. Şeic Lubna Bint Khalid Al Qasimi, ministrul Comerţului Exterior din EAU, de a participa la cea de-a doua ediţie a Întâlnirii Anuale pentru Investiţii, în luna mai a anului viitor în Dubai.\n\n- O ANIVERSARE INEDITĂ.

Durata cursurilor variază între 5 şi 30 de săptămâni, cu predare în regim de weekend. “Şcoala de Turism Eximtur este un proiect de suflet prin care încercăm să împărtăşim câte ceva din experienţa dobândită de noi. Nevoia de a lucra cu personal calificat a fost motorul principal al Şcolii. Ce am adus noi în plus? Legătura între partea teoretică şi practică, studii de caz, prezentare softuri specifice de rezervări, practica realizată în agenţii şi hoteluri, argumente care atrag din ce în ce mai mulţi cursanţi” – ne-a precizat Lucia Morariu, directorul general al companiei Eximtur.\n\n- 80 DE ARTIŞTI VĂ INVITĂ LA UN SALON SPECIAL.

E bine să ne gândim şi la o cămară, aprovizionată pe măsură. Mai multe sugestii au fost strânse într-un eveniment organizat de către hotelul Aro Palace împreună cu Asociaţia pentru Promovarea şi Dezvoltarea Turismului din judeţul Braşov. El s-a numit chiar „Cămara de iarnă’’. Vizitatorii au fost invitaţi să deguste şi să admire expoziţia de murături dar şi să petreacă pe terasa de pe Cetate cu vin fiert, pastramă la gratar şi muzică bună. Nu au lipsit nici comercianţii de artizanat, miere, turtă dulce, migdale trase în zahăr, brânzeturi, zacuscă, gemuri ca la bunica, decoraţiuni etc.\n\n - UNDE VA PRINDE VIAŢĂ JULES VERNE? Un proiect mai vechi capătă contur. În Pasul Vâlcan va fi construită încă o telegondolă, noi instalaţii de teleschi, cabane şi un... castel. Şi nu este vorba de orice castel. De aceea autorităţile locale sunt interesate să atragă investitori capabili să se implice în construirea Castelului din Carpaţi aşa cum este el descris în romanul celebrului Jules Verne. Noua telegondolă care va face legătura cu staţiunea Straja ar urma să aibă o staţie chiar în acel loc. Angela Stoica, viceprimarul municipiului Vulcan, a arătat că în prima etapă a proiectului, unde investiţia a fost de aproximativ 33 de milioane de lei, a fost construită telegondola între cotele 770-1310 metri din Pasul Vâlcan, s-a amenajat partia de schi, o parcare, drumul de acces la staţiile superioară şi inferioară ale telegondolei. Valoarea finală a proiectului se ridică la 28 milioane de euro.\n\n

Estimations on the 3 and 4 stars market
\r\nBucharest Benchmarking Report, made by hotel consultancy company Fivestar Hospitality, estimates that this year the occupancy rate of the 3 and 4 stars hotels in Bucharest will raise with 10%.

“Europe is younger in Bucharest”
\r\nThis is the phrase that resumes the positioning of Bucharest on the tourism market, the idea being proposed by the consultant contracted by MDRT in order to conceive the Tourism marketing plan for Bucharest 2011-2015. The analysis of Détente Consultants shows the actual situation of the tourism in the capital city, related to aspects of the evolution of urban tourism in other European countries.\r\n\r\nAccording to it the tourism development of Bucharest must be aimed on business and city-break tourism (that include other products such as cultural tourism or events). The specialists believe that promoting the city must think about the future perspective not only about the past. In their opinion the city must recommend itself different from other capitals, in continuous changing, with more cultural, artistic and sportive events. The slogan that concentrates all these ideas would be “Europe is younger in Bucharest”. The main aimed targets are: business people, young, city-breakers, senior groups and themed groups (medical and health tourism for example).

Udrea promotes Romania on... 4 wheels
\r\nMihai Marinescu, the Romanian Formula 2 pilot, will continue to promote Romanian tourism. In 2012 he will keep wearing the signs of the national brand.\r\nFollowing the victory in the La Monza circuit (Italy), Marinescu is the number five in the Formula 2 contest rating. The Romanian tourism brand has been recently promoted in the GP2 Series Final in Abu Dhabi, November 10-13th.

După cum a precizat Cristian Petrescu, preşedintele APTR „proiectul are ca scop creşterea circulaţiei turistice, precum şi a gradului de cunoaştere a unei părţi din istoria României, îmbinată armonios cu potenţialul turistic natural, prin promovarea traseului „Satu Mare – Baia Mare – Sighetu Marmaţiei – Vişeul de Sus – Borşa – Iacobeni – Câmpulung Moldovenesc – Suceava – Rădăuţi”.\r\n\r\nEl se cuprinde un traseu de circa 450 de kilometri.

“Europe is younger in Bucharest”
\r\nAceasta este fraza care rezumă poziţionarea turistică a Bucureştiului propusă deconsultantul contractat de MDRT pentru realizarea Planului de marketing turistic pentru municipiul Bucureşti 2011-2015. Documentul elaborat de către firma Détente Consultants prezintă o analiză a situaţiei actuale a turismului din Capitală în interdependenţă cu tendinţele de evoluţie a turismului urban în alte ţări europene. Conform acestuia dezvoltarea turistică a Bucureştiului trebuie centrată pe turismul de business şi pe turismul de tip city-break (care înglobează şi alte produse turistice precum turismul cultural sau turismul de evenimente).\r\n\r\nSpecialiştii susţin că promovarea Capitalei trebuie abordată şi din perspectiva viitorului oraşului, nu doar din cea a trecutului. În opinia lor, Bucureştiul trebuie să se recomande ca un oraş în plină dezvoltare, diferit de alte capitale, care propune din ce în ce mai multe evenimente culturale, artistice şi sportive. Sloganul care concentrează poziţionarea, propusă de consultant este “Europe is younger in Bucharest”.\r\n\r\nPrincipalele categorii de public stabilite pentru Bucureşti sunt: oamenii de afaceri, tinerii, city-breakers, grupurile de seniori şi publicuri tematice (consumatorii de turism medical sau de întreţinere, de exemplu). Aceste categorii se încadrează în tiparul turistului-explorator, dispus să experimenteze şi să descopere destinaţii noi. Analiza Detente Consultants a avut la bază cercetări cu privire la potenţialul Bucureştiului, studii realizate la nivel european, date disponibile pentru România, precum Studiul de brand realizat în 2010 sau Planul de maketing turistic al României pentru perioada 2011-2015.\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCONSTANŢA: S-a deschis Centrul European de Gastronomie\r\n\r\nCeea ce am anunţat în urmă cu câteva luni a prins viaţă. În această toamnă la Constanţa s-a inaugurat, în cadrul unui proiect finanţat de Uniunea Europeană, prima bază de practică în gastronomie.\r\nCentrul European de Gastronomie şi Turism este amenajat la standarde occidentale fiind prevăzut cu un laborator de gastronomie cu 6 secţiuni de bucătărie, un amfiteatru pentru demonstraţii gastronomice, laboratoare de tehnica servirii şi audio-media, o sală pentru cursuri teoretice etc. Evenimentul este parte dintr-un proiect strategic cofinanţat prin Programul Operaţional Sectorial pentru Dezvoltarea Resurselor Umane 2007-2013. El este dezvoltat în cadrul unui parteneriat transnaţional de Fundaţia „Ing. Nejloveanu Niculae – Maestru în arta culinară”, Centrul European de Profesii Culinare – Paris etc.\r\n\r\n“Obiectivul nostru principal este de a revitaliza tradiţia existentă în urmă cu câteva decenii, în care practica era principala creatoare de competenţe iar şcoala nu scotea pe bandă elevi şi studenţi buni la teorie, ci meseriaşi şi profesionişti pregătiţi să abordeze viitoare cariere. Scopul nostru este să îmbunătăţim competenţele celor care vor să facă performanţă în hotelărie şi restauraţie. Pentru început este un centru regional dar sunt convins că în scurt timp vom atrage aici tineri din întreaga lume. Avem ce să le arătăm şi transmite” – ne-a declarat Niculae Nejloveanu.\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nUdrea fortifică formula... Marinescu\r\n\r\n
Pilotul de Formula 2 Mihai Marinescu va continua să promoveze turismul românesc în cadrul unor competiţii internaţionale. Marinescu este partenerul MDRT în campaniile de promovare a României turistice încă din 2009. În anul 2011, pilotul român poartă pe echipament insemnele brandului naţional de turism pe care le are afişate şi pe monopostul cu care concurează. În urma victoriei înregistrată în circuitul de la Monza (Italia), Marinescu a urcat în clasamentul general de Formula 2 pe locul 5.\r\nBrandul turistic al României a mai fost promovat recent în cadrul Finalei GP2 Series de la Abu Dhabi, desfăşurată între 10 şi 13 noiembrie. Evoluţia spectaculoasă a lui Marinescu, a făcut ca acesta să se regăsească în prim-planul camerelor de luat vederi în peste 10 % din timpul total al transmisiunilor live. Participarea la “Finala GP2 Series” a fost urmărită de aproximativ 200.000 de spectatori în tribune. Evenimentul transmis în aproximativ 179 de ţări, a cunoscut o audienţă de aproximativ 150 de milioane de telespectatori.\r\n\r\nElena Udrea a declarat că această colaborare va continua şi în 2012. „L-am ales pe Mihai ca promotor al turismului nostru prin competiţia F2 deoarece, din analiza indicatorilor de audienţă din sport, a rezultat că, la nivel mondial, competiţiile automobilistice sunt pe locul doi în topul audienţei.\r\nÎn plus, ţările în care se desfăşoară etapele de campionat sunt pieţe importante pentru turismul românesc: Austria, Germania, Marea Britanie, Franţa, Spania, Ungaria.”, a declarat ministrul român. „Este o onoare pentru mine să reprezint sportul românesc la acest nivel. Mă bucur că am adus în ţară un trofeu dar nu vreau să mă opresc aici, ci doresc să reprezint România şi în F1”- a adăugat Marinescu.\r\nION BADEA\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nS-a închis sezonul la... rafting\r\n\r\n

Printre expozanţi se numără Cela Neamţu, Daniela Frumuşanu, Daniela Făiniş, Gherghina Costea, Cristina Bolborea, Mihai Ţopescu, Gheorghe Gogescu, Nicolae Zîmbroianu, dar şi reprezentanţi ai tinerei generaţii ca Roxana Elena Pitz, Nicoleta Buzea, Adela Bonaţ, Teodora Chiroşcă, Mihaela Diaconu etc. Traveller Magazin este unul dintre partenerii media ai manifestării.\r\n\r\n- CĂ TOT VINE IARNA. E bine să ne gândim şi la o cămară, aprovizionată pe măsură. Mai multe sugestii au fost strânse într-un eveniment organizat de către hotelul Aro Palace împreună cu Asociaţia pentru Promovarea şi Dezvoltarea Turismului din judeţul Braşov. El s-a numit chiar „Cămara de iarnă’’. Vizitatorii au fost invitaţi să deguste şi să admire expoziţia de murături dar şi să petreacă pe terasa de pe Cetate cu vin fiert, pastramă la gratar şi muzică bună. Nu au lipsit nici comercianţii de artizanat, miere, turtă dulce, migdale trase în zahăr, brânzeturi, zacuscă, gemuri ca la bunica, decoraţiuni etc.\r\n\r\n - UNDE VA PRINDE VIAŢĂ JULES VERNE? Un proiect mai vechi capătă contur. În Pasul Vâlcan va fi construită încă o telegondolă, noi instalaţii de teleschi, cabane şi un... castel. Şi nu este vorba de orice castel. De aceea autorităţile locale sunt interesate să atragă investitori capabili să se implice în construirea Castelului din Carpaţi aşa cum este el descris în romanul celebrului Jules Verne. Noua telegondolă care va face legătura cu staţiunea Straja ar urma să aibă o staţie chiar în acel loc. Angela Stoica, viceprimarul municipiului Vulcan, a arătat că în prima etapă a proiectului, unde investiţia a fost de aproximativ 33 de milioane de lei, a fost construită telegondola între cotele 770-1310 metri din Pasul Vâlcan, s-a amenajat partia de schi, o parcare, drumul de acces la staţiile superioară şi inferioară ale telegondolei. Valoarea finală a proiectului se ridică la 28 milioane de euro.\r\n\r\n
- POATE N-O SĂ CREDEŢI DAR... Castelul Huniazilor, sau Castelul Corvinilor cum mai este cunoscut, se află într-un top foarte select. Construcţia reprezentativă pentru perioada Evului Mediu şi unul dintre cele mai importante edificii cu arhitectură gotică din România, a fost inclusă de lonelyplanet.com în topul celor mai frumoase castele din Europa. După cum se ştie el a fost construit pe la jumătatea secolului al XV-lea de principele Iancu de Hunedoara şi a fost extins de fiul său, regele Matei Corvin (Mathyas Corvin), rămaşi în istorie pentru apărarea Transilvaniei în faţa expansiunii Imperiului Otoman. Alături de Castelul Huniazilor sunt incluse în top Prazsky Hrad din Praga, Schloss Neuschwanstein din Bavaria, Castelul de Pubolv din Catalonia, Chateau de Peyrepertuse din Languedoc-Roussillon, Franţa etc.','Un pod de promovare - evenimente noiembrie 2011','','inherit','open','open','','792-revision-2','','','2011-12-05 16:10:07','2011-12-05 14:10:07','',792,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/12/05/792-revision-2/',0,'revision','',0),(805,1,'2011-12-05 16:14:07','2011-12-05 14:14:07','','Centru Constanta','','inherit','open','open','','centru-constanta','','','2011-12-05 16:14:07','2011-12-05 14:14:07','',790,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Centru-Constanta.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(806,1,'2012-03-09 04:12:46','2012-03-09 02:12:46','A hotel that cares about... social culture

Estimations on the 3 and 4 stars market
\nBucharest Benchmarking Report, made by hotel consultancy company Fivestar Hospitality, estimates that this year the occupancy rate of the 3 and 4 stars hotels in Bucharest will raise with 10%. In 2010 it went up from 39% to 42%. According to this study the 4 stars hotel market registered a raise in the occupancy rate 42% to 46%, and the medium tariff a drop, from 63 to 51 euro.
\nThe occupancy rate of 3 stars hotels in Bucharest went up, from 37% to 39%, and the medium tariff reduced from 50 to 42 euro. Sorin Ionescu, managing partner Fivestar Hospitality, says that “the difference in between the medium prices of the 4 and 3 stars hotels continues its decrease, a phenomenon that indicates more negotiation power of the clients, which orientated towards better hotel products.” At the beginning of 2011 there where 52 hotels rated 4 stars and 63 of 3 stars, meaning 75% of the total of 153 hotels.\n\n\n
“Europe is younger in Bucharest”

The analysis of Détente Consultants shows the actual situation of the tourism in the capital city, related to aspects of the evolution of urban tourism in other European countries.
\nAccording to it the tourism development of Bucharest must be aimed on business and city-break tourism (that include other products such as cultural tourism or events). The specialists believe that promoting the city must think about the future perspective not only about the past. In their opinion the city must recommend itself different from other capitals, in continuous changing, with more cultural, artistic and sportive events. The slogan that concentrates all these ideas would be “Europe is younger in Bucharest”. The main aimed targets are: business people, young, city-breakers, senior groups and themed groups (medical and health tourism for example).\n\n\n

Un album cu… colindători
Că tot bat la uşă sărbătorile de iarnă. O lucrare de promovare a Consiliului Judeţean Suceava, editată cu finanţare europeană, ne readuce aminte că avem tradiţii vii, care concurează cu cele păstrate în muzee occidentale ce stochează urmele unor culturi populare apuse demult. „Crăciun în Bucovina”, apărut în versiunile română şi engleză, este un album păstrător de viaţă. Prin el sunt promovate datinile şi obiceiurile zonei, preluate de la strămoşi, păstrate intacte şi transferate mai departe înaintaşilor. Ele fac din Bucovina, la fiecare sfârşit de an un loc unic pe planetă. Parcurgând paginile bogat ilustrate cu fotografii actuale, avem în faţă parcă o mare scenă pe care se desfăşoară un spectacol rarisim de măşti şi ceremonialuri, ce constituie atracţii de top pentru călătorii români şi străini.

Sir Sitwell sub umbrela României frumoase
După ce am parcurs volumul „Călătorie în România”, apărut în colecţia Vintage a editurii Humanitas mi-am pus întrebarea dacă Sir Sacheverell Sitwell nu este un autor contemporan. Întrebare retorică deoarece călătorul englez - poet, critic, istoric de artă, memorialist cu studii la Oxford -, a redactat această carte tradusă de Maria Berza, în anul... 1937. El a făcut o scurtă călătorie în România, la invitaţia prinţesei Anne-Marie Callimachi, cu puţină vreme înainte de izbucnirea celui de-al doilea Război Mondial. Astfel a devenit unul dintre ultimii martori culturali ai unei Românii aflată atunci în plină înflorire. Ne-au impresionat observaţiile profunde, dublate de referinţe estetice, făcute de la Hurezi până în Delta Dunării, de la comunităţile de ţigani căldărari până la bisericile pictate din Bucovina, de la Bucureşti până la Braşov, Sighişoara, Cozia ori Borsec. În peste 250 de pagini, cu reproduceri după ilustraţiile originale, autorul face observaţii demne de invidiat. Un exemplu:”Ajunseserăm în Oltenia, locul unde se ţes cele mai frumoase covoare româneşti. E cazul să recunoaştem că, după covoarele persane şi turceşti, cele olteneşti sunt într-adevăr cele mai frumoase”. Se vede că scriitorul de turism este un promotor de cultură. Aspect pe cale de uitare în România de azi.

Un vagabond de lux prin lume

Ne-a parvenit de ceva vreme la redacţie un volum concentrat şi prin de experienţe bogate de călătorie. „Jurnalul unui vagabond prin lume” este semnat de un român pe nume Costin Ştefan, care crede că e bine să rămână în urma noastră drumuri de hârtie tipărită cu experienţe personalizate. Reportajele sunt însoţite de fotografii neconvenţionale făcute în periplurile efectuate în India, Thailanda, Indonezia, Malaezia, Vietnam, Birmania, Cambodgia, Kenia, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania etc. Costin Ştefan nu trebuie să convingă pe nimeni că este un călător scriitor talentat. Asta este. Şi o dovedeşte din plin în acest al doilea volum de autor pe care vi-l semnalăm. Dacă viaţa „se măsoară în vise trăite şi nu în ani”, atunci cu prisosinţă merită să-l căutaţi în librării şi să-i cumpăraţi un exemplar. Nu veţi avea în faţă o carte ci 250 de pagini de vise, tipărite la Editura Lumina Tipo din Bucureşti. Volumul poate fi comandat şi la adresa: comanda@costinstefan.ro.

Prin volumul al doilea al scriitorului Dorin Bălteanu, avem o nouă oglindă a fabuloaselor legende în majoritatea lor cu rădăcini reale. „Herculane – Arc peste timp” strânge în aproape 300 de pagini noi descoperiri făcute de autor în legătură cu trecerile unor personalităţi prin această staţiune, considerată cândva una dintre cele mai valoroase din lume. Împărăteasa Elisabeta a Austro-Ungariei, fascinanta Sisi, care ne-a lăsat şi o serie de poeme despre această zonă, regina Elisabeta a României, împăraţii Iosif al II-lea, Francisc I, Franz Iosef ori Regele Carol al II-lea, au lăsat urme ale gloriei lor la Herculane. Bălteanu excelează în acest volum prin interviuri şi declaraţii ale unor oameni mai puţin cunoscuţi, dar care au meritat cu prisosinţă să fie aduşi în prim plan. Prin ei istoria recentă a locurilor, capătă alte valenţe istorice prin investiţiile făcute de industria turistică în ultima jumătate de secol. Volumul, apărut la Editura Info din Craiova, îşi va găsi sigur un loc în biblioteca dumneavoastră.

TTR – La un ceai cu... margarete Fără îndoială ediţia de toamnă (a XXVI-a) a Târgului de Turism al României – 2011, a fost bine primită de un public curios de noutăţi din travel dar şi din domenii conexe turismului. TTR a reunit peste 110 de participanti din 19 ţari.\r\nStandurile cele mai căutate au fost cele ale Japoniei, Indiei şi Emiratelor Arabe Unite. Japonezii au dat spectacole în fiecare zi, cu ceremonia ceaiului, într-o manieră interactivă. O echipă dedicată acestui ritual tradiţional a atras şi vizitatori pe care i-a iniţiat în arta de a pregăti şi a servi ceaiul. O idee frumoasă, dublată de oferta gastronomică, care s-a bucurat de apreciere. Indienii au impresionat cu broşurile şi suporturile de promovare ale ţării lor iar “emirii” cu noutăţile lansate de compania aviatică “Emirates”. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/TTR-Gala-Margarete.jpg\" "\\"TTR")
\r\n\r\nLa un alt nivel, în cadrul galei ANTREC, s-a vorbit tot despre natură. “Margareta de Aur 2011”, e un trofeu care a răsplătit efortul unor membrii din cea mai consecventă asociaţie din turismul românesc. Marele premiu al turismului rural a revenit pensiunii Domnescu, din Sălişte (Sibiu). Secţiunile au avut următorii câştigători: “Tradiţie locală” –“Case cu stil” (marele premiu Pensiunea “Căsuţa Bunicii” din Bran - Braşov) , “Gastronomie” (Pensiunea”Sub Piatră”-Sălciua - Alba), “Agrement” (Pensiunea”Carol”-Oglinzi – Neamţ), şi, în premieră, Marele premiu pentru organizare de evenimente – (“Casa Matei” din Berca -Buzău) pentru organizarea Festivalului Cărnaţilor de Pleşcoi. Atmosfera a fost întreţinută de Ansamblul “Ciuleandra” şi tineri în costume populare din Pogoanele (Buzău) şi de Maria Gligor, ce a interpretat la tulnic fragmente muzicale din Apuseni. Alte două evenimente de top au fost reprezentate de două lansări de carte. Prima - “Brandul Ospitalităţii” – a făcut intrarea lui Cristian Cărămidă, în lumea turistică. El a fost sprijinit de Travel Bank şi Romexpo. Printre parteneri s-a numărat şi revista noastră. O provocare, aşa a descris a patra carte a autorului, prestigiosul editor Constantin Dumitru.

volumul 2 al scriitorului Dorin Bălteanu din ciclul “Herculane – Arc peste timp”. Noua abordare istorică este susţinut de o călătorie jurnalistică, alături de personaje ce au dat strălucire acestei staţiuni, aflată în faţa unei renaşteri investiţionale. Invitatul de onoare, Constantin Bălăceanu Stolnici, a relatat momente captivante din documentarea autorului. Voi mai aminti şi de două conferinţe care au încercat să repoziţioneze priorităţi naţionale şi locale.

\r\nTrandafiri roz, albi... apoi un şir se termina cu un buchet roşu, vibrând sub soarele unei după-amieze californiene.

E doar la o oră de San Francisco. O staţie de tren placată cu lemn, modestă, simplu recondiţionată, în localitatea Napa Valley. Păşind înăuntru începe lecţia: o sală mare împărţită într-o zonă de bar şi degustare şi o alta cu un mare magazin de vinuri şi suveniruri. În sală se face o prezentare de 15 minute a zonei vinicole Napa Valley. Ea are o formă de triunghi şi se îngustează spre munte, iar în acest spaţiu, de câteva sute de kilometri pătraţi se găsesc în jur de 300 vinării. Turiştii pot face pe parcursul introducerii o degustare de 4 vinuri, cu 10 dolari. Apoi se îmbarcă în trenul tras la peron, pentru o plimbare simplă. Experienţa deosebită însă, pe care unii îşi zic că şi-o pot permite odată în viaţă, dacă tot au ajuns aici, este a lua masa, dejun sau cină, în tren. Cumpărăturile la sfârşit!
\r\n-CUM ARATĂ PRODUSUL ?\r\nWine Train pleacă de două ori pe zi, cu pornire şi întoarcere din şi în localitatea Napa Valley. “Avem 9 vagoane recondiţionate, de la începutul secolului 20, mişcate de 2 locomotive. Toate produsele pe care le servim, se gătesc proaspăt, în timpul mersului, în cele trei bucătării. Pachetul turistic costă în jur de 100 de dolari şi include masa şi plimbarea cu trenul. Vinurile recomandate de specialişti se plătesc separat, în funcţie de dorinţa şi gustul clientului”- spune Savannah Mattfield, responsabilă cu marketingul.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Bucatarul-sef-Kelly-Macdonald.jpg\" "\\"Bucatarul")
\r\nLa rândul său Trenton McManus, managerul care se ocupă de turiştii internaţionali, ne-a relatat că timpul de călătorie este de aproximativ 3 ore. La dus te aşezi comod în scaun, la bar sau la masă, cu un pahar de vin în mână, şi priveşti pe geam. Trenul se mişcă destul de încet ca să pătrunzi în atmosfera locului, să-ţi bucuri ochii cu dungile verzi, simetrice, ale viilor ce se înşiră lângă drum. Domeniile sunt elegante, fără a epata cu nimic, fără lux ostentativ în exterior. Case coloniale de lemn sau piatră, cu doar un etaj dar cu grădini sălbatice, aparent crescute fără regulă, pline de trandafiri. Zona respiră verde, lipsită de înghesuială ori agitaţie. Din tren se văd cam 50 de vinării, unele din depărtare, pe lângă altele trecem atât de aproape încât vedem oamenii aşezaţi la masă în curte. Numele lor sunt înscrise elegant, lângă intrare, şi sună graţios ori legendar: Tra Vigne, St. Supery, V. Sattui, Clos Du Val etc.
- ROBERT MONDAVI – ORICE LEGENDĂ ARE UN PREŢ.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/meniu-napa-valley.jpg\" "\\"meniu")
În timpul călătoriei poţi beneficia de cunoştinţele unui „wine educator”, un specialist din partea locului, cunoscător al vinurilor şi bun povestitor al domeniilor din vale. Astfel aflăm că primele vii au apărut în zonă la jumătatea secolului al 19-lea. Regiunea a devenit însă faimoasă prin anii 1960, când Robert Mondavi s-a apucat serios de comerţ. La legendarul Mondavi e loc pentru toată lumea. Există diverse tipuri de programe, de la 15 la 100 de dolari, prin care, în principal se urmăreşte educarea publicului. Printre cele mai interesante produse ni s-a părut acela în care, testând vinuri, va trebui să găseşti muzica ce li se potriveşte, care le exprimă şi le potenţează valoarea. Dar la podgoriile din Napa Valley se vine nu numai pentru licoarea lui Bachus. Poţi face o nuntă, o conferinţă, un tur educaţional, o testare de vinuri în limuzină (după care fireşte, te întorci şi cumperi ce ţi-a plăcut cel mai mult), te poţi logodi sau transforma într-un călător romantic prin plantaţiile de viţă de vie, desfăşurate ca nişte covoare verzi pe mii de hectare. Dacă nu v-am convins ce-aţi spune de o aniversare într-o pivniţă cu vinuri vechi? Nu e nevoie să vă urcaţi în acea zi la volan. Pentru că aceste proprietăţi exclusiviste deţin camere de închiriat.
- KELLY MACDONALD E ÎNDRĂGOSTIT DE... VANILIE.\r\nDar cu ce te mai delectezi în tren! O probă la fel de grea şi de plăcută trebuie trecută pe traseul de întoarcere, la servirea mesei. Meniul făcut de bucătarul şef al trenului este, spunem solemn, cu mâna pe inimă, cea mai bună selecţie încercată în 20 de zile pe coasta de Vest. Kelly Macdonald e un tip simplu, roşcovan, cu un discurs entuziast. Dacă vrei să nu se mai oprească din vorbit, întreabă-l despre ce ţi-a gătit. Noi am încercat pentru început salata verde cu nuci trase în zahăr, brânză de capră şi sos acrişor de miere. Dacă un file de vită e uşor de asortat cu un sos de vin, cam pentru orice bucătar, somonul cu morcovi şi coajă de portocală trasă la tigaie în unt deja ni s-a părut de un rafinament aparte. Piureul de ţelină asortat cu roşii uscate şi gem de caise ne-a lăsat însă fără replică! Desertul vă poate părea banal: cremă de zahăr ars cu vanilie. “Secretul e simplu: dacă ai să te concentrezi puţin vei descoperi pe fundul cupei, ceva ca nişte seminţe fine de mac. Asta e vanilia care schimbă totul” – a explicat Kelly reţeta sa specială.\r\n Kelly nu a ratat ocazia să ne mai spună că dragostea ca şi gastronomia nu au vârstă şi ca urmare el rămâne un căutător permanent de noi expresii. De aceea vrea să meargă cât mai des posibil pe continentul european unde sunt extrem de multe lucruri de învăţat. Dacă prima ieşire a fost în Georgia, unde a rămas fascinat de gustul mâncărurilor, el speră ca în viitorii ani se va întâlni şi cu culturile culinare din România, Bulgaria ori Serbia despre care a auzit că sunt la fel de diverse ca cea din State. Chef-ul american spune că experimentează orice reţetă învăţată adaptând-o la cerinţele clienţilor săi. Este, se înţelege, un partizan al stilului fusion. Şi a încheiat prin a oferi un autograf cititorilor noştri.
\r\n- UN DETALIU SECRET – „WINE EDUCATOR”-UL.\r\nNapa Valley Wine Train transportă între 80 şi 100.000 turişti pe an. Vagoanele de epocă sunt inscripţionate cu numele celor mai bune soiuri cultivate în vale: Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Merlot, Zinfandel. Favoritul nostru a fost şi ramâne în California, cel din urmă. Coborând din tren, dacă ai avut o întâlnire romantică, îţi poţi lăsa un lacăt în formă de inimă, prins de gardul de pe pasarela gării. Magazinul de suveniruri este oprirea ultimă. Găseşti o mulţime de nimicuri care îţi fac cu ochiul, legate de vin: de la dopuri de plută, până la sticle reciclate, înfrumuseţate cu pietre decorative şi transformate în untiere. Vinurile sunt şi ele pentru toate buzunarele, de la 9 dolari la 160 dolari sticla. E greu să te hotărăşti ce ţi-a plăcut cel mai mult: Benessere Sangiovese 2007 de la preparatul de bază, Swanson Pinot Grigio 2009 de la desert... Şi, în timp ce încercam să ne decidem, ne-am dat seama că Napa Valley e o poveste bine spusă, cum s-ar zice tehnic, un produs excelent valorificat. Secretul constă în grija pentru detaliu. Iar răspunsul pe care l-am primit de la Richard Miami - „wine educator” la ferma Robert Mondavi -, este că ... trandafirii sunt puşi, aşa, de frumuseţe!

Ea are o formă de triunghi şi se îngustează spre munte, iar în acest spaţiu, de câteva sute de kilometri pătraţi se găsesc în jur de 300 vinării. Turiştii pot face pe parcursul introducerii o degustare de 4 vinuri, cu 10 dolari. Apoi se îmbarcă în trenul tras la peron, pentru o plimbare simplă. Experienţa deosebită însă, pe care unii îşi zic că şi-o pot permite odată în viaţă, dacă tot au ajuns aici, este a lua masa, dejun sau cină, în tren. Cumpărăturile la sfârşit!
\n-CUM ARATĂ PRODUSUL ?\nWine Train pleacă de două ori pe zi, cu pornire şi întoarcere din şi în localitatea Napa Valley. “Avem 9 vagoane recondiţionate, de la începutul secolului 20, mişcate de 2 locomotive. Toate produsele pe care le servim, se gătesc proaspăt, în timpul mersului, în cele trei bucătării. Pachetul turistic costă în jur de 100 de dolari şi include masa şi plimbarea cu trenul. Vinurile recomandate de specialişti se plătesc separat, în funcţie de dorinţa şi gustul clientului”- spune Savannah Mattfield, responsabilă cu marketingul.\nLa rândul său Trenton McManus, managerul care se ocupă de turiştii internaţionali, ne-a relatat că timpul de călătorie este de aproximativ 3 ore. La dus te aşezi comod în scaun, la bar sau la masă, cu un pahar de vin în mână, şi priveşti pe geam. Trenul se mişcă destul de încet ca să pătrunzi în atmosfera locului, să-ţi bucuri ochii cu dungile verzi, simetrice, ale viilor ce se înşiră lângă drum. Domeniile sunt elegante, fără a epata cu nimic, fără lux ostentativ în exterior. Case coloniale de lemn sau piatră, cu doar un etaj dar cu grădini sălbatice, aparent crescute fără regulă, pline de trandafiri. Zona respiră verde, lipsită de înghesuială ori agitaţie. Din tren se văd cam 50 de vinării, unele din depărtare, pe lângă altele trecem atât de aproape încât vedem oamenii aşezaţi la masă în curte. Numele lor sunt înscrise elegant, lângă intrare, şi sună graţios ori legendar: Tra Vigne, St. Supery, V. Sattui, Clos Du Val etc.
- ROBERT MONDAVI – ORICE LEGENDĂ ARE UN PREŢ.\nÎn timpul călătoriei poţi beneficia de cunoştinţele unui „wine educator”, un specialist din partea locului, cunoscător al vinurilor şi bun povestitor al domeniilor din vale. Astfel aflăm că primele vii au apărut în zonă la jumătatea secolului al 19-lea. Regiunea a devenit însă faimoasă prin anii 1960, când Robert Mondavi s-a apucat serios de comerţ. La legendarul Mondavi e loc pentru toată lumea. Există diverse tipuri de programe, de la 15 la 100 de dolari, prin care, în principal se urmăreşte educarea publicului. Printre cele mai interesante produse ni s-a părut acela în care, testând vinuri, va trebui să găseşti muzica ce li se potriveşte, care le exprimă şi le potenţează valoarea. Dar la podgoriile din Napa Valley se vine nu numai pentru licoarea lui Bachus. Poţi face o nuntă, o conferinţă, un tur educaţional, o testare de vinuri în limuzină (după care fireşte, te întorci şi cumperi ce ţi-a plăcut cel mai mult), te poţi logodi sau transforma într-un călător romantic prin plantaţiile de viţă de vie, desfăşurate ca nişte covoare verzi pe mii de hectare. Dacă nu v-am convins ce-aţi spune de o aniversare într-o pivniţă cu vinuri vechi? Nu e nevoie să vă urcaţi în acea zi la volan. Pentru că aceste proprietăţi exclusiviste deţin camere de închiriat.
\n- KELLY MACDONALD E ÎNDRĂGOSTIT DE... VANILIE.\nDar cu ce te mai delectezi în tren! O probă la fel de grea şi de plăcută trebuie trecută pe traseul de întoarcere, la servirea mesei. Meniul făcut de bucătarul şef al trenului este, spunem solemn, cu mâna pe inimă, cea mai bună selecţie încercată în 20 de zile pe coasta de Vest. Kelly Macdonald e un tip simplu, roşcovan, cu un discurs entuziast. Dacă vrei să nu se mai oprească din vorbit, întreabă-l despre ce ţi-a gătit. Noi am încercat pentru început salata verde cu nuci trase în zahăr, brânză de capră şi sos acrişor de miere. Dacă un file de vită e uşor de asortat cu un sos de vin, cam pentru orice bucătar, somonul cu morcovi şi coajă de portocală trasă la tigaie în unt deja ni s-a părut de un rafinament aparte. Piureul de ţelină asortat cu roşii uscate şi gem de caise ne-a lăsat însă fără replică! Desertul vă poate părea banal: cremă de zahăr ars cu vanilie. “Secretul e simplu: dacă ai să te concentrezi puţin vei descoperi pe fundul cupei, ceva ca nişte seminţe fine de mac. Asta e vanilia care schimbă totul” – a explicat Kelly reţeta sa specială.\n Kelly nu a ratat ocazia să ne mai spună că dragostea ca şi gastronomia nu au vârstă şi ca urmare el rămâne un căutător permanent de noi expresii. De aceea vrea să meargă cât mai des posibil pe continentul european unde sunt extrem de multe lucruri de învăţat. Dacă prima ieşire a fost în Georgia, unde a rămas fascinat de gustul mâncărurilor, el speră ca în viitorii ani se va întâlni şi cu culturile culinare din România, Bulgaria ori Serbia despre care a auzit că sunt la fel de diverse ca cea din State. Chef-ul american spune că experimentează orice reţetă învăţată adaptând-o la cerinţele clienţilor săi. Este, se înţelege, un partizan al stilului fusion. Şi a încheiat prin a oferi un autograf cititorilor noştri.
\n- UN DETALIU SECRET – „WINE EDUCATOR”-UL.\nNapa Valley Wine Train transportă între 80 şi 100.000 turişti pe an. Vagoanele de epocă sunt inscripţionate cu numele celor mai bune soiuri cultivate în vale: Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Merlot, Zinfandel. Favoritul nostru a fost şi ramâne în California, cel din urmă. Coborând din tren, dacă ai avut o întâlnire romantică, îţi poţi lăsa un lacăt în formă de inimă, prins de gardul de pe pasarela gării. Magazinul de suveniruri este oprirea ultimă. Găseşti o mulţime de nimicuri care îţi fac cu ochiul, legate de vin: de la dopuri de plută, până la sticle reciclate, înfrumuseţate cu pietre decorative şi transformate în untiere. Vinurile sunt şi ele pentru toate buzunarele, de la 9 dolari la 160 dolari sticla. E greu să te hotărăşti ce ţi-a plăcut cel mai mult: Benessere Sangiovese 2007 de la preparatul de bază, Swanson Pinot Grigio 2009 de la desert... Şi, în timp ce încercam să ne decidem, ne-am dat seama că Napa Valley e o poveste bine spusă, cum s-ar zice tehnic, un produs excelent valorificat. Secretul constă în grija pentru detaliu. Iar răspunsul pe care l-am primit de la Richard Miami - „wine educator” la ferma Robert Mondavi -, este că ... trandafirii sunt puşi, aşa, de frumuseţe!

Privind pe fereastra trenului, prima noastră experienţă în valea celebră a început cu întrebarea: de ce se plantează trandafiri la capetele şirurilor de viţă de vie? Apoi mi-am zis, e oare greu să creezi un produs turistic precum “trenul vinului”? Căutaţi răspunsuri? Atunci parcurgeţi cu noi Napa Valley, probabil cea mai cunoscută zonă de podgorii a Statelor Unite.

Pe Valea Doftanei a apărut un hotel premiat de Ordinul Arhitecţilor. La Continental a fost bătaie mare pe cratiţe şi pahare iar orădenii pun la cale un complex de wellness. Acestor veşti li se alătură mutările – expaţi contra expaţi - din top managementul hotelurilor Hilton şi Epoque din Bucureşti.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
NOI EXPRESII PE PIAŢĂ\r\nOrdinul Arhitecţilor a premiat... ATRA
\r\nUnul dintre cele mai rafinate design-hoteluri din România a devenit operaţional pe Valea Doftanei. Atra Doftana, reprezintă materializarea unui proiect premiat recent de către Ordinului Arhitecţilor pentru arhitectură social-culturală, în cadrul ediţiei Anuale de Arhitectură Bucureşti 2011. Atra Doftana a fost selectat din 160 de proiecte înscrise în competiţie. Situat chiar pe malul Lacului Paltinu din judeţul Prahova, într-o ambianţă deopotrivă naturală şi sofisticată, hotelul este promovat ca un spaţiu exclusivist. Iniţiatorii sunt patru antreprenori români.\r\n\r\n“Valea Doftanei oferă un peisaj nepoluat comercial şi merită un tratament excepţional. Din respect pentru natură, ne-am dorit o prezenţă armonioasă cu peisajul seren de pe malul lacului Paltinu. Dacă primul demers, cel al proiectării şi al construcţiei Atra Doftana, s-a încheiat cu recunoaşterea sa în cadrul secţiunii socio-culturale a Anualei de Arhitectură, următorul demers, pe care îl considerăm poiecţia de viitor, este să însufleţim acest loc, să oferim oaspeţilor o alternativă de relaxare şi un rafinament special” - a declarat Emil Munteanu, unul dintre acţionarii Top Resorts, proprietara Atra Doftana. Munteanu a mai arătat la inaugurare că “filozofia de la baza proiectului Atra Doftana este să ne tratăm clienţii aşa cum ne-ar plăcea nouă să fim trataţi. Avem o vastă experienţă în calitate de consumatori de turism şi am devenit extrem de exigenţi în ceea ce priveşte calitatea serviciilor. Ne propunem aşadar să promovăm şi să vindem tot ceea ce dă unicitate confortului şi relaxării”. În ceea ce priveşte poziţionarea faţă de clientelă Munteanu estimează că anul viitor circa 60% din cifra de afaceri va fi asigurată de turismul corporate ce se va întâlni aici cu numeroase oferte de business turism. În acest scop vor fi dezvoltate mai multe programe de fidelizare.\r\n\r\nAtra Doftana oferă facilităţile necesare pentru un sejur perfect adaptat fiecărei preferinţe, fie că e vorba despre un weekend de relaxare, o vacanţă activă sau o reuniune de afaceri. Gândit ca un resort exclusivist care poate găzdui peste 20 de persoane, design-hotelul beneficiază de 8 camere elegante, dispuse astfel încât să protejeze intimitatea oaspeţilor. El deţine numeroase facilităţi – de la zona de wellness cu vedere panoramică spre lac, incluzând saună şi fitness, terasă exterioară pentru barbecue, un living spaţios cu şemineu, un restaurant-gourmet cu o capacitate de 50 de locuri, unde sunt promovate produsele organice. Toate preparatele sunt urmărite de ochiul atent al unui Chef cu expertiză în gastronomia internaţională. Alte detalii puteţi afla pe www.atradoftana.ro.

CONCURSURI PROFESIONALE\r\nCel mai bun la… 20 de ani\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Concurs-Conti-1.jpg\" "\\"Concurs")
\r\nTradiţia merge mai departe. Continental Hotels a ajuns să organizeze ce-a de X-a ediţie a concursurilor profesionale chiar în anul în care a aniversat două decenii de existenţă. Evenimentul a avut o încărcătură emoţională pe măsură şi asta s-a văzut şi la concurenţii care au intrat în competiţiile: Cel mai bun bucătar, respectiv Cea mai bună echipă de servire din lanţul Continental. Aşa stând lucrurile la Grand Hotel Continental s-au bătut în tigăi, cratiţe, cuţite şi mirodenii cei care visează să ajungă Chefi. După ce au trecut un test de cunoştinţe cei 8 bucătari au trecut prin probe practice care le-au pus la încercare îndemânarea, creativitatea şi originalitatea. Tema centrală a fost: un preparat vintage în stilul anilor ’20 şi un desert regal. Cel mai convingător a fost George Baciu, un “junior”, cu numai un an vechime în echipa de la Grand Hotel Continental din Bucureşti. Reţetele prezentate au fost: scoici Saint Jacques servite cu sparanghel alb, sos de vin alb cu şofran şi caviar roşu; piept de raţă servit cu varză roşie cu nuci, piure de păstârnac şi sos de vin roşu; tartă de mere cu cremă de vanilie servită cu sos caramel şi încheţată de fistic. Locurile 2 şi 3 au revenit lui Iulian Chivu, de la acelaşi hotel, respectiv lui Alin Burada (Continental Forum Arad). ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Concurs-Conti-2.jpg\" "\\"Concurs")
\r\nCel de-al doilea concurs a atras la Ibis-Gara de Nord, 7 echipe formate din câte 2 concurenţi. După ce şi-au arătat îndemânarea la decantarea şi servirea vinului roşu, la flambarea fructelor, un preparat cu tema vintage cocktail şi o reţetă de cafea… retro café, juriul patronat de Radu Enache a decis că echipa cea mai tare a fost în 2011, cea a Continental Forum Arad (Cosmin Stiop şi Nicu Stan). Ea a fost secondată de sibieni (Vasilica şi Felix Frăţilă), şi orădeni (Andreea Puşcaş şi Iosif Pop). Ca să nu rămână ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Concurs-conti-4.jpg\" "\\"Concurs")
lucrurile neterminate câştigătorii i-au invitat pe experţi să testeze deliciosul cocktail “Cantalup” pe bază de gin, Cointreau şi aromă de pepene şi i-a omenit în final cu o “Café Marseille” parfumată cu lichior de portocale şi cognac.
\r\n
PROIECTE\r\nBihorenii o dau pe welness\r\nLa Oradea va fi construit în zona actualului ştrand municipal, un complex termal care va atrage prin facilităţile de wellness. El se va numi Nymphaea, şi va fi finanţat într-o proporţie importantă de către Uniunea Europeană, prin Programul Operational Regional 2007-2013. Proiectul prevede construirea a trei noi clădiri, a unui complex multifuncţional prevăzut şi cu spaţii de cazare, o zonă acoperită dotată cu 14 bazine şi 12 aquatobogane, respectiv a unui complex comercial. Reprezentanţii primăriei au declarat că după finalizarea lucrărilor capacitatea infrastructurii de cazare va creşte cu 500 de locuri. Aceştia mai se aşteaptă la o creştere cu 30% a numărului de turişti, după primii 3 ani de la implementarea proiectului. Valoarea totală a investiţiei va fi de circa 88,3 milioane de lei.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
TENDINŢE\r\nCreştem la 3 şi la 4\r\nBucharest Benchmarking Report, realizat de compania de consultanţă hotelieră Fivestar Hospitality estimează că în acest an gradul de ocupare al hotelurilor de 3 si 4 stele din Bucureşti va creşte cu aproximativ 10%, dupa ce în 2010 a urcat de la 39% la 42%. Conform studiului, piaţa hotelurilor de 4 stele a înregistrat o creştere a gradului de ocupare de la 42% la 46%, iar tariful mediu o scădere, de la 63 la 51 de euro. Gradul de ocupare al hotelurilor de 3 stele din Bucureşti, a crescut de la 37% la 39%, iar tariful mediu s-a redus de la 50 la 42 de euro. Sorin Ionescu, managing partner Fivestar Hospitality, apreciază ca “diferenţa dintre tariful mediu la 4 stele şi cel de la 3 stele a continuat să scadă, fenomen ce indică o creştere a puterii de negociere a clienţilor, care s-au orientat spre produse hoteliere mai bune, forţând tarife proprii unor produse clasificate pe treapta imediat inferioară. Anul 2011 marchează o stabilizare a tarifelor medii şi o creştere a gradului de ocupare al pieţei cu aproximativ 10%”.\r\nLa începutul acestui an pe piaţa bucureşteană activau 52 de hoteluri de 4 stele şi 63 de 3 stele, reprezentând peste 75% din totalul celor 153 de unităţi.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSCHIMBĂRI ÎN TOP MANAGEMENT\r\nAu venit Yann şi Jean\r\nAthenee Palace Hilton din Bucureşti, clasificat la 5 stele, are un nou director de dezvoltare. Yann Marteau a aterizat în România din Indonezia, unde a fost director de vânzări şi marketing într-un hotel de lux. El deţine o experienţă în top management de mai bine de 11 ani. Cariera lui Yann a început în Dubai, în cadrul grupului Jumeirah, în Emirates Towers Hotel şi ulterior la Burj Al Arab.

DESIGN, CONCURSURI ŞI SCHIMBĂRI DE GĂRZI
\n
Pe Valea Doftanei a apărut un hotel premiat de Ordinul Arhitecţilor. La Continental a fost bătaie mare pe cratiţe şi pahare iar orădenii pun la cale un complex de wellness. Acestor veşti li se alătură mutările – expaţi contra expaţi - din top managementul hotelurilor Hilton şi Epoque din Bucureşti.
\n\n\n\n
NOI EXPRESII PE PIAŢĂ\nOrdinul Arhitecţilor a premiat... ATRA
\nUnul dintre cele mai rafinate design-hoteluri din România a devenit operaţional pe Valea Doftanei. Atra Doftana, reprezintă materializarea unui proiect premiat recent de către Ordinului Arhitecţilor pentru arhitectură social-culturală, în cadrul ediţiei Anuale de Arhitectură Bucureşti 2011. Atra Doftana a fost selectat din 160 de proiecte înscrise în competiţie. Situat chiar pe malul Lacului Paltinu din judeţul Prahova, într-o ambianţă deopotrivă naturală şi sofisticată, hotelul este promovat ca un spaţiu exclusivist. Iniţiatorii sunt patru antreprenori români.\n\n“Valea Doftanei oferă un peisaj nepoluat comercial şi merită un tratament excepţional. Din respect pentru natură, ne-am dorit o prezenţă armonioasă cu peisajul seren de pe malul lacului Paltinu. Dacă primul demers, cel al proiectării şi al construcţiei Atra Doftana, s-a încheiat cu recunoaşterea sa în cadrul secţiunii socio-culturale a Anualei de Arhitectură, următorul demers, pe care îl considerăm poiecţia de viitor, este să însufleţim acest loc, să oferim oaspeţilor o alternativă de relaxare şi un rafinament special” - a declarat Emil Munteanu, unul dintre acţionarii Top Resorts, proprietara Atra Doftana. Munteanu a mai arătat la inaugurare că “filozofia de la baza proiectului Atra Doftana este să ne tratăm clienţii aşa cum ne-ar plăcea nouă să fim trataţi. Avem o vastă experienţă în calitate de consumatori de turism şi am devenit extrem de exigenţi în ceea ce priveşte calitatea serviciilor. Ne propunem aşadar să promovăm şi să vindem tot ceea ce dă unicitate confortului şi relaxării”. În ceea ce priveşte poziţionarea faţă de clientelă Munteanu estimează că anul viitor circa 60% din cifra de afaceri va fi asigurată de turismul corporate ce se va întâlni aici cu numeroase oferte de business turism. În acest scop vor fi dezvoltate mai multe programe de fidelizare.\n\nAtra Doftana oferă facilităţile necesare pentru un sejur perfect adaptat fiecărei preferinţe, fie că e vorba despre un weekend de relaxare, o vacanţă activă sau o reuniune de afaceri. Gândit ca un resort exclusivist care poate găzdui peste 20 de persoane, design-hotelul beneficiază de 8 camere elegante, dispuse astfel încât să protejeze intimitatea oaspeţilor. El deţine numeroase facilităţi – de la zona de wellness cu vedere panoramică spre lac, incluzând saună şi fitness, terasă exterioară pentru barbecue, un living spaţios cu şemineu, un restaurant-gourmet cu o capacitate de 50 de locuri, unde sunt promovate produsele organice. Toate preparatele sunt urmărite de ochiul atent al unui Chef cu expertiză în gastronomia internaţională. Alte detalii puteţi afla pe www.atradoftana.ro.
\n\n\n\n
CONCURSURI PROFESIONALE\nCel mai bun la… 20 de ani\n\nTradiţia merge mai departe. Continental Hotels a ajuns să organizeze ce-a de X-a ediţie a concursurilor profesionale chiar în anul în care a aniversat două decenii de existenţă. Evenimentul a avut o încărcătură emoţională pe măsură şi asta s-a văzut şi la concurenţii care au intrat în competiţiile: Cel mai bun bucătar, respectiv Cea mai bună echipă de servire din lanţul Continental. Aşa stând lucrurile la Grand Hotel Continental s-au bătut în tigăi, cratiţe, cuţite şi mirodenii cei care visează să ajungă Chefi. După ce au trecut un test de cunoştinţe cei 8 bucătari au trecut prin probe practice care le-au pus la încercare îndemânarea, creativitatea şi originalitatea. Tema centrală a fost: un preparat vintage în stilul anilor ’20 şi un desert regal. Cel mai convingător a fost George Baciu, un “junior”, cu numai un an vechime în echipa de la Grand Hotel Continental din Bucureşti. Reţetele prezentate au fost: scoici Saint Jacques servite cu sparanghel alb, sos de vin alb cu şofran şi caviar roşu; piept de raţă servit cu varză roşie cu nuci, piure de păstârnac şi sos de vin roşu; tartă de mere cu cremă de vanilie servită cu sos caramel şi încheţată de fistic. Locurile 2 şi 3 au revenit lui Iulian Chivu, de la acelaşi hotel, respectiv lui Alin Burada (Continental Forum Arad).\nCel de-al doilea concurs a atras la Ibis-Gara de Nord, 7 echipe formate din câte 2 concurenţi. După ce şi-au arătat îndemânarea la decantarea şi servirea vinului roşu, la flambarea fructelor, un preparat cu tema vintage cocktail şi o reţetă de cafea… retro café, juriul patronat de Radu Enache a decis că echipa cea mai tare a fost în 2011, cea a Continental Forum Arad (Cosmin Stiop şi Nicu Stan). Ea a fost secondată de sibieni (Vasilica şi Felix Frăţilă), şi orădeni (Andreea Puşcaş şi Iosif Pop). Ca să nu rămână lucrurile neterminate câştigătorii i-au invitat pe experţi să testeze deliciosul cocktail “Cantalup” pe bază de gin, Cointreau şi aromă de pepene şi i-a omenit în final cu o “Café Marseille” parfumată cu lichior de portocale şi cognac.
\n\n\n\n
PROIECTE\nBihorenii o dau pe welness\nLa Oradea va fi construit în zona actualului ştrand municipal, un complex termal care va atrage prin facilităţile de wellness. El se va numi Nymphaea, şi va fi finanţat într-o proporţie importantă de către Uniunea Europeană, prin Programul Operational Regional 2007-2013. Proiectul prevede construirea a trei noi clădiri, a unui complex multifuncţional prevăzut şi cu spaţii de cazare, o zonă acoperită dotată cu 14 bazine şi 12 aquatobogane, respectiv a unui complex comercial. Reprezentanţii primăriei au declarat că după finalizarea lucrărilor capacitatea infrastructurii de cazare va creşte cu 500 de locuri. Aceştia mai se aşteaptă la o creştere cu 30% a numărului de turişti, după primii 3 ani de la implementarea proiectului. Valoarea totală a investiţiei va fi de circa 88,3 milioane de lei.
\n\n\n\n
TENDINŢE\nCreştem la 3 şi la 4\nBucharest Benchmarking Report, realizat de compania de consultanţă hotelieră Fivestar Hospitality estimează că în acest an gradul de ocupare al hotelurilor de 3 si 4 stele din Bucureşti va creşte cu aproximativ 10%, dupa ce în 2010 a urcat de la 39% la 42%. Conform studiului, piaţa hotelurilor de 4 stele a înregistrat o creştere a gradului de ocupare de la 42% la 46%, iar tariful mediu o scădere, de la 63 la 51 de euro. Gradul de ocupare al hotelurilor de 3 stele din Bucureşti, a crescut de la 37% la 39%, iar tariful mediu s-a redus de la 50 la 42 de euro. Sorin Ionescu, managing partner Fivestar Hospitality, apreciază ca “diferenţa dintre tariful mediu la 4 stele şi cel de la 3 stele a continuat să scadă, fenomen ce indică o creştere a puterii de negociere a clienţilor, care s-au orientat spre produse hoteliere mai bune, forţând tarife proprii unor produse clasificate pe treapta imediat inferioară. Anul 2011 marchează o stabilizare a tarifelor medii şi o creştere a gradului de ocupare al pieţei cu aproximativ 10%”.\nLa începutul acestui an pe piaţa bucureşteană activau 52 de hoteluri de 4 stele şi 63 de 3 stele, reprezentând peste 75% din totalul celor 153 de unităţi.
\n\n\n\n\nSCHIMBĂRI ÎN TOP MANAGEMENT\nAu venit Yann şi Jean\nAthenee Palace Hilton din Bucureşti, clasificat la 5 stele, are un nou director de dezvoltare. Yann Marteau a aterizat în România din Indonezia, unde a fost director de vânzări şi marketing într-un hotel de lux. El deţine o experienţă în top management de mai bine de 11 ani. Cariera lui Yann a început în Dubai, în cadrul grupului Jumeirah, în Emirates Towers Hotel şi ulterior la Burj Al Arab. El şi-a dezvoltat cariera în Asia, unde a lucrat în echipa Mandarin Oriental Group.\nO altă schimbare de gardă, printre expaţi, a fost marcată de terminarea mandatului lui Antoni Kuhnen la hotelul Epoque. Poziţia de director general a fost preluată de Jean Pascal. El vine din Ucraina unde a ocupat o funcţie similară în cadrul unui hotel de 5 stele.\nANGELA SIMION & ION BADEA\n','INDUSTRIE HOTELIERA NR.92 NOIEMBRIE 2011','','inherit','open','open','','835-revision','','','2011-12-05 18:14:53','2011-12-05 16:14:53','',835,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2011/12/05/835-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(843,1,'2011-12-05 18:20:23','2011-12-05 16:20:23','

CONGRES FIJET: Transilvania, mai mult decât te aştepţi ! (2) \r\nVizita de documentare a celor 200 de jurnalişti şi editori de travel din întreaga lume a continuat, după Bucovina, cu un periplu în Transilvania. Cel de-al 53-lea Congres al Federaţiei Internaţionale a Jurnaliştilor şi Scriitorilor din Turism (FIJET), organizat pe baza unui proiect al Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET ROMÂNIA, în parteneriat şi cu sprijinul logistic al Ministerului Dezvoltării regionale şi Turismului (MDRT), a inclus alte experienţe memorabile.\r\n\r\nAM DEVENIT CAVALERI AI ORDINULUI LUP.\r\nPrimul popas al vizitei de documentare a fost la Pasul Tihuţei. Aici ne-am întâlnit cu statuia scriitorului Bram Stoker şi amintirile Contelui Dracula. Un pahar de ţuică roşie, ne-a transmis ceva din misterul locului şi mai puţin despre obiceiurile unui vampir născut în scutecele de celuloid. De acolo ne-am îndreptat spre Cetatea Medievală a Sighişoarei unde am avut parte de două nopţi magice şi misterioase. Primirea la porţile vechiului burg a fost încărcată de istorie şi de punerea în scenă a unui ritual în care toţi invitaţii prezenţi au fost înnobilaţi cu diploma „Ordinul cavalerilor lup”.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Fijet-SALVATORE-Cifalino.jpg\" "\\"Fijet")
\r\nÎmbrăcaţi în costume de epocă, tineri entuziaşti ne-a dăruit două coliere – cu capul lupului dacic (Dacus Lupus), respectiv cu o potocoavă şi o căpăţână de usturoi -, menite să ne poarte noroc şi, fireşte, să ne păzească de spiritele rele. Atmosfera i-a pătruns pe toţi invitaţii care a doua după-amiază au fost martorii unui spectacol unic. El a fost promovat de aceeaşi trupă a artistică a Asociaţiei „Ordinului cavalerilor lup”, condusă de Liviu Pancu. Regizor şi actor la Teatrul Naţional din Târgu Mureş, loc de unde-şi trage seva şi inimoasa echipă, Pancu este în acelaşi timp şi iniţiatorul teatrului particular “Scena”. Spectacolul a adus în faţa jurnaliştilor de travel, copiii de la Ansamblul local “Plaiurile Ardealului”, condus de Viorel Răduţ. Lor li s-au alăturat cu recitaluri excepţionale maeştrii Dumitru Fărcaş, Gheorghe Turda, Ion Lăceanu, Leontina Pop, dar şi interpreţii Aurel Tamaş şi Ionuţ Fulea. Invitaţii au savurat, într-un mod aparte, melodiile interpretate de Ion Lăceanu la... frunză. Nu cea din campania turistică, ci frunze naturale din... Grădina Carpaţilor. “Ordinul cavalerilor lupi” a învins în finalul spectacolului atât dragonul cât şi spiritele malefice, iar Dracula s-a retras în lumea poveştilor recreate de noile generaţii de artişti... medievali. Evenimentele au avut sare, piper şi toate ingredientele necesare unui succes artistic.

\r\n\r\n- ÎN MĂRGINIME PE URMELE UNUI MĂR DE AUR.\r\nImaginile evenimentului sighişorean ne-au urmărit în celelalte etape ale vizitei noastre. Am coborât spre un alt oraş medieval - Sibiu, apoi în Mărginimea Sibiului, zonă distinsă cu un Golden Apple, cu doi ani în urmă. Muzeul icoanelor pe sticlă de la Sibiel şi un scurt program cu “Nunta la români” au fost la fel de bine primite. În timpul vizitării unor gospodării ţărăneşti, nu muzee ci spaţii locuite, un vechi prieteni al nostru Oleksii Soloviov, membru al FIJET Ucraina, care a publicat numeroase articole despre România, făcea o interesantă observaţie: “Peste 4-5 ani aceste zone pline de tradiţii, ţara dumneavoastră în ansamblu, vor deveni la la fel de căutate cum este Cehia astăzi. Turiştii vă vor invada şi atunci s-ar putea să regretaţi multe dintre aceste lucruri naturale care se vor comercializa, se vor altera. Depinde de cei care fac turism rural în această zonă, să păstreze un echilibru pe termen lung, în care să nu fie pierdută omenia, ospitalitatea, natura în stare pură.” De reflectat.\r\n\r\nSalvatore Cifalino, jurnalist şi profesor la Universitatea “Giuseppe Cristaldi” din Sicilia, a fost şi el de părere că “România are resurse naturale profunde, iar locuitorii ei au o incredibilă forţă de a socialibiliza într-un mod spontan , cu aceeaşi profunzime pe care o avem noi, italienii. Nu doresc ca aceasta să fie o concluzie, dar trebuie să o spun - România este o ţară fascinantă cu viitor în turism”.\r\nDupă aceea am ajuns la Castelul Bran, la Castelul Peleş, unde am vizitat, ce-i drept, numai grădinile (aici a fost o problemă de organizare şi comunicare), la Cazinoul din Sinaia, unde primăria localităţii a ştiut să trateze cum se cuvine un asemenea eveniment. În Sala Oglinzilor, dincolo de delicatesele gastronomice s-au ţinut speachuri, s-au făcut promisiuni şi s-au legat noi prietenii, care vor dura cu siguranţă peste ani. Acolo, dar şi pe tot parcursul drumurilor bucovinene ori transilvane câştigătoare a fost şi rămas România.
- PROFESIONIŞTII DIN FRUMOASA ŞI CULTA ROMÂNIE.\r\n“După ce am ajuns la Madrid am realizat dimensiunea eforturilor pe care le-aţi depus pentru organizarea Congresului FIJET. A fost un eveniment complet în diversitatea lui şi asta exprimă că România este foarte impresionantă prin tradiţiile ei vii, prin vestigiile istorice şi culturale, mare parte figurând în patrimoniul mondial al UNESCO. Vă transmit un salut afectuos şi mii de mulţumiri pentru aportul la Congres al profesioniştilor din frumoasa şi culta Românie”. Aşa a simţit Miguel Angel Brera, preşedintele de onoare al FIJET, după reîntoarcerea acasă. Şi a dorit să ne transmită acest lucru.\r\n\r\n- PE URMELE ANEI ASLAN.\r\nAnais de Melo, preşedintele FIJET Mexic, a fost impresionată de vestigiile medievale întâlnite la Sighişoara, Bran şi Sinaia dar în acelaşi măsură “de cremele Anei Aslan, o adevărată legendă în ţara mea. Se ştiu multe lucruri despre efectele miraculoase ale Gerovitalului dar mai puţin despre atracţiile turistice ale dumneavoastră. Acum am descoperit că că avem afinităţi culturale comune şi că atracţiile naturale din România au un potenţial uriaş. Mai mulţi prieteni m-au rugat să le aduc măcar o cutie cu un produs Aslan şi de aceea am căutat să le îndeplinesc dorinţa. A fost o manifestare frumoasă cu oameni optimişti, contemporani cu o lume umbrită de tristeţe şi grijile cotidiane”.\r\n\r\n- A FOST O ORGANIZARE EXCELENTĂ.\r\nCare a fost părerea lui Jim Thompson, directorul de congrese şi evenimente al FIJET, despre evenimentul găzduit de ţara noastră? Jim a apreciat “minunata ospitalitate cu care am fost primiţi. Organizarea a fost excelentă şi pentru asta mulţumim foarte mult colegilor noştri de la FIJET România şi, în aceeaşi măsură, conducerii Ministerului. Locurile arătate au fost superbe, iar gazdele profesioniste care au îmbinat informaţiile cu un umor de bună calitate. Evenimentul găzduit de ţara dumneavoastră va rămâne în memoria noastră. A fost o adevărată plăcere să lucrăm cu un grup atât de talentat, format din membrii Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET România. Bineînţeles că vorbesc şi în numele membrilor FIJET International. Mulţi dintre ei şi-au exprimat o puternică dorinţă de a reveni în ţara dumneavoastră. Alături de reportajele şi producţiile care vor apărea despre locurile vizitate vă vom trimite şi un CD, cu cele mai reuşite colecţii de imagini realizate de fotograful oficial, colegul nostru din State, Riker Lomas. Sperăm că toate vor fi de folos la promovarea turismului românesc”.\r\n\r\n- INVESTIŢIA ÎN IMAGINE ESTE O LUPTĂ PERMANENTĂ.\r\nElena Udrea scria la începutul manifestării pe un suport electronic: “Timp de nouă zile, România este gazda celui de-al 53-lea Congres Mondial al Federaţiei Internaţionale a Jurnaliştilor şi Scriitorilor din Turism (FIJET). Între 17 şi 25 septembrie, 200 de jurnalişti de la prestigioase publicaţii de turism au evaluat şi promovat potenţialul turistic. Simplul fapt că evenimentul are loc în România este o recunoaştere a progreselor făcute în ultimii ani. De altfel, decizia organizării Congresului în ţara noastră a fost luată în 2009, când România a primit nu mai puţin de trei „Mere de Aur” (Pommes d’or), una dintre cele mai prestigioase distincţii din domeniul turismului la nivel internaţional. Anterior, România primise un singur Măr de Aur, în anul 1975. Într-un alt mesaj, distribuit participanţilor la Sighişoara, ministrul Udrea mai sublinia că: “În general, ţările se luptă pentru organizarea acestui congres, iar locaţia aleasă este întotdeauna o destinaţie la modă în perioada respectivă. Pentru cele nouă zile petrecute în România, organizatorii au pus în valoare potenţialul natural, dar şi destinaţii turistice culturale de primă mână. Evident, întregul Congres stă sub semnul brandului naţional de turism: Explore the Carpathian Garden. În acest context, mi-ar plăcea foarte mult dacă şi jurnaliştii români care scriu despre turismul naţional ar adopta mai mult din modul de raportare al străinilor la ţara noastră”.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU

Cel de-al 53-lea Congres al Federaţiei Internaţionale a Jurnaliştilor şi Scriitorilor din Turism (FIJET), organizat pe baza unui proiect al Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET ROMÂNIA, în parteneriat şi cu sprijinul logistic al Ministerului Dezvoltării regionale şi Turismului (MDRT), a inclus alte experienţe memorabile.\n\nAM DEVENIT CAVALERI AI ORDINULUI LUP.\nPrimul popas al vizitei de documentare a fost la Pasul Tihuţei. Aici ne-am întâlnit cu statuia scriitorului Bram Stoker şi amintirile Contelui Dracula. Un pahar de ţuică roşie, ne-a transmis ceva din misterul locului şi mai puţin despre obiceiurile unui vampir născut în scutecele de celuloid. De acolo ne-am îndreptat spre Cetatea Medievală a Sighişoarei unde am avut parte de două nopţi magice şi misterioase. Primirea la porţile vechiului burg a fost încărcată de istorie şi de punerea în scenă a unui ritual în care toţi invitaţii prezenţi au fost înnobilaţi cu diploma „Ordinul cavalerilor lup”.\nÎmbrăcaţi în costume de epocă, tineri entuziaşti ne-a dăruit două coliere – cu capul lupului dacic (Dacus Lupus), respectiv cu o potocoavă şi o căpăţână de usturoi -, menite să ne poarte noroc şi, fireşte, să ne păzească de spiritele rele. Atmosfera i-a pătruns pe toţi invitaţii care a doua după-amiază au fost martorii unui spectacol unic. El a fost promovat de aceeaşi trupă a artistică a Asociaţiei „Ordinului cavalerilor lup”, condusă de Liviu Pancu. Regizor şi actor la Teatrul Naţional din Târgu Mureş, loc de unde-şi trage seva şi inimoasa echipă, Pancu este în acelaşi timp şi iniţiatorul teatrului particular “Scena”. Spectacolul a adus în faţa jurnaliştilor de travel, copiii de la Ansamblul local “Plaiurile Ardealului”, condus de Viorel Răduţ. Lor li s-au alăturat cu recitaluri excepţionale maeştrii Dumitru Fărcaş, Gheorghe Turda, Ion Lăceanu, Leontina Pop, dar şi interpreţii Aurel Tamaş şi Ionuţ Fulea. Invitaţii au savurat, într-un mod aparte, melodiile interpretate de Ion Lăceanu la... frunză. Nu cea din campania turistică, ci frunze naturale din... Grădina Carpaţilor. “Ordinul cavalerilor lupi” a învins în finalul spectacolului atât dragonul cât şi spiritele malefice, iar Dracula s-a retras în lumea poveştilor recreate de noile generaţii de artişti... medievali. Evenimentele au avut sare, piper şi toate ingredientele necesare unui succes artistic.\n\n- ÎN MĂRGINIME PE URMELE UNUI MĂR DE AUR.\nImaginile evenimentului sighişorean ne-au urmărit în celelalte etape ale vizitei noastre. Am coborât spre un alt oraş medieval - Sibiu, apoi în Mărginimea Sibiului, zonă distinsă cu un Golden Apple, cu doi ani în urmă. Muzeul icoanelor pe sticlă de la Sibiel şi un scurt program cu “Nunta la români” au fost la fel de bine primite. În timpul vizitării unor gospodării ţărăneşti, nu muzee ci spaţii locuite, un vechi prieteni al nostru Oleksii Soloviov, membru al FIJET Ucraina, care a publicat numeroase articole despre România, făcea o interesantă observaţie: “Peste 4-5 ani aceste zone pline de tradiţii, ţara dumneavoastră în ansamblu, vor deveni la la fel de căutate cum este Cehia astăzi. Turiştii vă vor invada şi atunci s-ar putea să regretaţi multe dintre aceste lucruri naturale care se vor comercializa, se vor altera. Depinde de cei care fac turism rural în această zonă, să păstreze un echilibru pe termen lung, în care să nu fie pierdută omenia, ospitalitatea, natura în stare pură.” De reflectat.\n\nSalvatore Cifalino, jurnalist şi profesor la Universitatea “Giuseppe Cristaldi” din Sicilia, a fost şi el de părere că “România are resurse naturale profunde, iar locuitorii ei au o incredibilă forţă de a socialibiliza într-un mod spontan , cu aceeaşi profunzime pe care o avem noi, italienii. Nu doresc ca aceasta să fie o concluzie, dar trebuie să o spun - România este o ţară fascinantă cu viitor în turism”.\nDupă aceea am ajuns la Castelul Bran, la Castelul Peleş, unde am vizitat, ce-i drept, numai grădinile (aici a fost o problemă de organizare şi comunicare), la Cazinoul din Sinaia, unde primăria localităţii a ştiut să trateze cum se cuvine un asemenea eveniment. În Sala Oglinzilor, dincolo de delicatesele gastronomice s-au ţinut speachuri, s-au făcut promisiuni şi s-au legat noi prietenii, care vor dura cu siguranţă peste ani. Acolo, dar şi pe tot parcursul drumurilor bucovinene ori transilvane câştigătoare a fost şi rămas România.
- PROFESIONIŞTII DIN FRUMOASA ŞI CULTA ROMÂNIE.\n“După ce am ajuns la Madrid am realizat dimensiunea eforturilor pe care le-aţi depus pentru organizarea Congresului FIJET. A fost un eveniment complet în diversitatea lui şi asta exprimă că România este foarte impresionantă prin tradiţiile ei vii, prin vestigiile istorice şi culturale, mare parte figurând în patrimoniul mondial al UNESCO. Vă transmit un salut afectuos şi mii de mulţumiri pentru aportul la Congres al profesioniştilor din frumoasa şi culta Românie”. Aşa a simţit Miguel Angel Brera, preşedintele de onoare al FIJET, după reîntoarcerea acasă. Şi a dorit să ne transmită acest lucru.\n\n- PE URMELE ANEI ASLAN.\nAnais de Melo, preşedintele FIJET Mexic, a fost impresionată de vestigiile medievale întâlnite la Sighişoara, Bran şi Sinaia dar în acelaşi măsură “de cremele Anei Aslan, o adevărată legendă în ţara mea. Se ştiu multe lucruri despre efectele miraculoase ale Gerovitalului dar mai puţin despre atracţiile turistice ale dumneavoastră. Acum am descoperit că că avem afinităţi culturale comune şi că atracţiile naturale din România au un potenţial uriaş. Mai mulţi prieteni m-au rugat să le aduc măcar o cutie cu un produs Aslan şi de aceea am căutat să le îndeplinesc dorinţa. A fost o manifestare frumoasă cu oameni optimişti, contemporani cu o lume umbrită de tristeţe şi grijile cotidiane”.\n\n- A FOST O ORGANIZARE EXCELENTĂ.\nCare a fost părerea lui Jim Thompson, directorul de congrese şi evenimente al FIJET, despre evenimentul găzduit de ţara noastră? Jim a apreciat “minunata ospitalitate cu care am fost primiţi. Organizarea a fost excelentă şi pentru asta mulţumim foarte mult colegilor noştri de la FIJET România şi, în aceeaşi măsură, conducerii Ministerului. Locurile arătate au fost superbe, iar gazdele profesioniste care au îmbinat informaţiile cu un umor de bună calitate. Evenimentul găzduit de ţara dumneavoastră va rămâne în memoria noastră. A fost o adevărată plăcere să lucrăm cu un grup atât de talentat, format din membrii Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET România. Bineînţeles că vorbesc şi în numele membrilor FIJET International. Mulţi dintre ei şi-au exprimat o puternică dorinţă de a reveni în ţara dumneavoastră. Alături de reportajele şi producţiile care vor apărea despre locurile vizitate vă vom trimite şi un CD, cu cele mai reuşite colecţii de imagini realizate de fotograful oficial, colegul nostru din State, Riker Lomas. Sperăm că toate vor fi de folos la promovarea turismului românesc”.\n\n- INVESTIŢIA ÎN IMAGINE ESTE O LUPTĂ PERMANENTĂ.\nElena Udrea scria la începutul manifestării pe un suport electronic: “Timp de nouă zile, România este gazda celui de-al 53-lea Congres Mondial al Federaţiei Internaţionale a Jurnaliştilor şi Scriitorilor din Turism (FIJET). Între 17 şi 25 septembrie, 200 de jurnalişti de la prestigioase publicaţii de turism au evaluat şi promovat potenţialul turistic. Simplul fapt că evenimentul are loc în România este o recunoaştere a progreselor făcute în ultimii ani. De altfel, decizia organizării Congresului în ţara noastră a fost luată în 2009, când România a primit nu mai puţin de trei „Mere de Aur” (Pommes d’or), una dintre cele mai prestigioase distincţii din domeniul turismului la nivel internaţional. Anterior, România primise un singur Măr de Aur, în anul 1975. Într-un alt mesaj, distribuit participanţilor la Sighişoara, ministrul Udrea mai sublinia că: “În general, ţările se luptă pentru organizarea acestui congres, iar locaţia aleasă este întotdeauna o destinaţie la modă în perioada respectivă. Pentru cele nouă zile petrecute în România, organizatorii au pus în valoare potenţialul natural, dar şi destinaţii turistice culturale de primă mână. Evident, întregul Congres stă sub semnul brandului naţional de turism: Explore the Carpathian Garden. În acest context, mi-ar plăcea foarte mult dacă şi jurnaliştii români care scriu despre turismul naţional ar adopta mai mult din modul de raportare al străinilor la ţara noastră”.\n\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU

Poate nu vă aşteptaţi. Dar acest subiect a constituit tematica unui original infotrip, organizat cu resurse private pentru travel agenţi preocupaţi să vândă... România, şi câţiva editori de turism devotaţi redescoperirii unor atracţii autohtone.
„Centre Spa şi cetăţi transilvane” a fost un maraton conceput şi derulat pe parcursul a 5 zile de către o echipă de la agenţia Accent Travel & Events, condusă de Lucian Boronea, care derulează de ceva timp asemenea proiecte turistico-culturale. Impactul lor. O mai bună cunoaştere a ofertelor şi o mai bună poziţionare a lor pe piaţa comercială de incoming.
\r\n- UN LOC MISTERIOR PENTRU PELERINAJE CULTURALE.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Spa-Accent-102.jpg\" "\\"Spa")
\r\nŞi acum la drum. Prima oprire am făcut-o la Castelul Iulia Haşdeu din Câmpina, în fapt Muzeul Memorial „B.P. Haşdeu”, un loc plin de mister care se bucură şi de un ghidaj profesionist asigurat de către muzeograful Dragoş Stanciu Costin. Domnia sa ne-a introdus în istoria familiei Haşdeu şi a vieţii Iuliei Haşdeu. Pe aici, conform spuselor lui, trec anual 25.000 de vizitatori, dintre care circa 5% sunt străini. O mare parte dintre aceştia vin din Israel şi rămân fascinaţi de colecţiile de tablouri, poveşti, cărţi dar şi de arhitectura deosebită a clădirii, concepută şi ridicată de tată, între anii 1893 şi 1896, în amintirea ficei sale care s-a stins la frageda vârstă de 19 ani. Muzeul este nu numai un loc de pelerinaj cultural ci şi un spaţiu care găzduieşte periodic evenimente artistice, de la concerte până la serate muzicale.\r\nDe aici ne-am îndreptat spre Predeal unde am vizitat Hotelul Orizont, care ne-a relevat o nouă investiţie într-un complex de restaurante şi o bază de Spa. Ambele sunt căutată de cunoscători şi clienţii fideli. Complexul, care marchează în decembrie 35 de ani de la inaugurare, se va poziţiona curând, mult mai pregnant, cu o sală mare de conferinţe.

- DE LA PREJMER ÎN CĂUTAREA VIAGREI DIN COVASNA.\r\n Cetatea de la Prejmer este şi ea un magnet istoric al judeţului Braşov. Este bine întreţinută şi are viaţă turistică. Este una dintre cetăţile cu biserică fortificată, care au trecut prin mai multe etape de restaurare între anii 1960 şi 1970, iar lăcaşul de cult din interior a fost construit în stilul gotic burgund introdus de cirstericieni la Cârţa. Lăcaşul constituie cea mai bine păstrată şi cea mai puternică biserică-cetate medievală din Estul Europei. În 1999, biserica a fost înscrisă pe lista patrimoniului mondial UNESCO. Aveţi de vedea dacă o vizitaţi.\r\nO noapte de cazare la Hotelul Clermont din oraşul Covasna ne-a prilejuit şi întâlnirea cu un om-ilegendă al locurilor. Herman Rosner, preşedintele Camerei de Comerţ şi Industrie e în acelaşi timp un cunoscut om de afaceri. Lupta sa principală este să dovedească, dacă mai era nevoie, că terapiile şi tratamentele naturale, cu „Viagra” de Covasna - am numit proprietăţile fabuloase a mofetelor şi izvoarelor minerale de aici -, sunt cu mult mai eficiente şi mai ieftine decât tratamentele medicamentoase.
- DU-MĂ MAMĂ DE LA SOVATA SĂ-L CUNOSC ŞI PE... APOLLO! ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Spa-Accent-458.jpg\" "\\"Spa")
\r\nUn alt obiectiv vizitat a fost Castelul Miko, care trece printr-un amplu program de restaurare finanţat din resurse europene. Aici veţi întâlni elemente ce amintesc de bastioanele italieneşti, ridicate în stilul Renaşterii târzii. Oraşul Miercurea Ciuc, va beneficia din plin de activităţile muzeale dar şi de programele artistice care se vor organiza aici. Unul dintre ele, devenit deja tradiţie, este Festivalul de Jazz. De aici ne-am îndreptat către Praid, unde am vizitat Salina, loc de pelerinaj încă de pe vremea romanilor. Mina de la Praid este atestată documentar pe la 1200 iar exploatarea intensivă se face din 1700. În 1980 în salină s-a deschis şi o bază de tratament. Cum era de aşteptat şi turismul rural a percutat la aceată oportunitate. Aşa au apărut Hotelul Praid de 2 stele, respectiv Pensiunea Praid de 4 stele, care încorporează în structura lor şi zone de Spa.\r\nDe aici drumul ne-a dus spre staţiunea Sovata, unde am evaluat oportunităţile de tratament şi de conferinţe oferite de hotelurile Danubius şi Brădet, care au ca investitori oameni de afaceri din Ungaria. Înainte de a intra în oraşul Târgu Mureş, vom spune că am inspectat Complexul Apollo din Sângeorgiu de Mureş, reconstruit în întregime de investitori români. Doamna Maria Benţa, directoarea hotelului, ne-a relatat despre eforturile de a creea un spaţiu pentru tratament şi prevenţie, sănătatea oamenilor şi refacerea puterii de muncă, fiind cuvinte pe ordinea de zi a specialiştilor de aici.
- TÂRGU MUREŞ, ALBA IULIA ŞI DRUMUL SPRE TURDA.\r\n Ei bine oraşul Târgu Mureş ne-a procurat două suprize de proporţii. Business Plaza şi Plaza Hotel sunt două complexe în care familia Florin Vlas a investit cu pricepere. Şi asta se vede din spaţiile de spa, Business Plaza deţinând cea mai mare şi una dintre cele mai moderne baze de întreţinere din România. Dacă nu credeţi, mergeţi acolo şi vă veţi lămuri. Cetatea din Târgu Mureş este însă în acest prag de iarnă, un spaţiu de depozitare. După cum am aflat din primăvară ea va cunoaşte un program de investiţii care îi va reda strălucirea de odinioară. Adică de prin secolul al XV-lea când a fost construită în actuala formă fortificată de către voievodul Transilvaniei, Bathori Istvan.\r\n\r\nDeoarece spaţiul nu ne permite vom aminti de încă două locuri pe care nu trebuie să le rataţi. De Cetatea bastionară de la Alba Iulia, pe care n-o veţi mai recunoaşte. A trecut prin mai multe etape de restaurare, porţile ei strălucesc ca pe vremurile Marii Unirii. Catedrala Reîntregirii Neamului de asemenea. Să nu rataţi schimbarea gărzii, un adevărat spectacol istoric care se produce pentru turişti în fiecare sâmbătăt şi duminică. Despre Salina de la Turda, care a beneficiat în amenajarea sa de un proiect cu finanţare europeană, vă vom relata lucruri fabuloase. Ce au în comun salinele, cu cetăţile şi centrele Spa? Veţi afla în numărul viitor.

Dacă aici Dunărea se varsă în mare atunci, ei bine, împreună cu Asociaţia Force Turism, condusă de Beatrice Chiriac, şi noi ne-am vărsat la… Sulina. Cu tot cu revista dedicată judeţului Tulcea. Un alt prilej de familiarizare cu atracţiile mai vechi şi mai noi ale oraşului misterios. Proiectul de documentare a fost susţinut şi prin parteneriatul cu InfoTravelRomania.
- UNDE E... EUROPOLISUL ?\r\nEste greu să dai un răspuns. E şi mai greu pentru primarul Aurel Dimitriu. Nu este un tip pesimist pentru că proiectele finalizate recent arată că Sulina are, cu certitudine, un viitor turistic. Dar asta-i doar o parte din adevăr. „S-a distrus tot în Sulina. Şi dacă era război, şi tot mai rămâneau câteva întreprinderi în picioare. E frumos, sună extraordinar, dar e foarte greu să faci reconversia forţei de muncă industriale în alte domenii, ca de exemplu servicii şi turism. Nu poţi trăi permanent numai din asta la Sulina”. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Delta-force-1461.jpg\" "\\"Delta")
\r\nMai multe investiţii arată ora exactă din acest oraş. Două au pus în valoare un complex de agrement dar şi plaja cu cel mai fin nisip din Europa. E o zonă fantastică iar apa mării are o adâncime de circa 30 de centimetri pe o lungime de circa 800 de metri. La Sulina activează 30 de pensiuni, cu circa 300 de locuri. Vila Alga este una dintre cele în care am locuit. Cristian Mozăceanu a investit în 14 camere supraetajate, încadrate de terase, ideale pentru a servi masa şi a admira panoramele învecinate. La începutul drumului către plajă te întâmpină Casa Sibiană construită şi administrată chiar de către un sibian. După ce a făcut ceva bani din construcţii şi turism în Occident a fost convins de soţie să investească acasă la ea, la Sulina. Olariu Gigi Dumitru a pus în mişcare un concept interesant pentru clienţii săi. Face parte dintr-un grup de proprietari de pensiuni care se recomandă reciproc turiştilor. Astfel, unii contribuie la prosperitatea celorlalţi, şi viceversa. Muntele vine la mare, marea se duce la deal şi la munte şi povestea merge mai departe. Vin aici pentru vacanţe pescari, familii, iar pensiunea este full tot sezonul. Gazdele organizează partide de pescuit, vânătoare, de birdwatching şi fotohunting, excursii în Delta Dunării, la Pădurea Letea, închiriază ambarcaţiuni cu capacităţi de la 2 până la 10 persoane. Oferă în plus programe de călărie de agrement, iar pescarii amatori pot închiria profesori... de crap sau ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Delta-force-194.jpg\" "\\"Delta")
ştiucă. Contribuie din plin şi agenţiile de turism care au văzut această oportunitate. Când am vizitat Casa Sibiană un producător german tocmai turna secvenţe la o versiune nouă a filmului Huckleberry Finn.
- MAI E CEVA PÂNĂ LA NEW YORK. \r\nCele 2 hoteluri ale oraşului, fanion cândva, sunt abandonate. Speranţa, care nu moare niciodată, este într-un investitor care va reface în întregime unul dintre ele. Să punem la socoteală ceea ce este de văzut acum în acest oraş legendar. Mai întâi, dacă nu ştiaţi, Sulina este singurul oraş din România, ale cărei străzi principale sunt numerotate pe sistem newyorkez de la 1 la 6, cu 13 străzi perpendiculare pe fluviu. Istoria certifică documentar aşezarea în anul 950, iar prima menţionare e făcută în hărţile medievale din 1327, de Pietro Visconti, localitatea fiind menţionată ulterior ca Selina, Sunne, Solina şi, în final, ca Sulina. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Delta-Primarul-Aurel-Dumitru.jpg\" "\\"Delta")
\r\nAdevărul e că două clădiri fac diferenţa. Ele ar trebui să fie renovate şi reamenajate cum se cuvine - Farul şi edificiul Comisiei europene a Dunării. Farul Vechi datează din 1869-1870, şi era amplasat pe acea vreme în apropierea punctului de vărsare a Dunării în Marea Neagră. Acum edificiu se află la 1,5 kilometri de ţărmul mării, ceea ce înseamnă că suprafaţa oraşului a crescut. Farul are o înălţime de 17,34 de metri, după 1989 a fost restaurat şi apoi în 2003 a fost transformat în Muzeu „Farul Vechi”. Cu un aer de spaţiu abandonat acesta ar trebui să fie primul reper de referinţă al turiştilor. Se simte nevoia unui nou concept. E împărţit în două săli, una dedicată comandorului Eugeniu P. Botez, cel care a îndeplinit o vreme funcţia de comisar maritim al portului. Este autorul, printre altele, sub pseudonimul Jean Bart, al romanului Europolis. Cealaltă revine amintirii dirijorului George Georgescu, care s-a născut la Sulina. Farul a fost - vă mai amintiţi nu? - şi „personaj principal” în filmul românesc de mare succes „Toate pânzele sus”. La rîndul lui Palatul fostei Comisiuni Europene a Dunării, în stilul neoclasic, e cam prăpădit la faţadă. În mod normal el ar trebui să devină cu timpul un Centru cultural şi expoziţional menit să găzduiască proiecte internaţionale susţinute, fireşte, de administraţia locală.
- CINE SPUNE POVESTEA CU PIRAŢI, HAMALI ŞI PRINŢESE?\r\nUltima găselniţă, care stă în picioare, este crearea unui circuit al monumentelor funerare aflate în Cimitirul oraşului. E o treabă serioasă mai ales că aici dorm somnul de veci, unii alături de alţii, personalităţi care au lucrat la Comisia Dunăreană, români, britanici, greci, italieni, ruşi, armeni, turci, austro-ungari, evrei, bulgari, tătari, muntenegreni, sîrbi, germani etc. Prinţese, contese, nepoate de voievozi, ingineri, pescari, consuli, hamali, chiar şi piraţi, spune legenda. Este un loc multicultural, un conglomerat de religii, credinţe şi confesiuni. După cum am aflat aceste două posibile atracţii sunt în vizorul Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului care şi-a propus să finanţeze viitoare proiecte. Demersul face parte din strategia de dezvoltare a oraşului Sulina, ce a inclus şi modernizarea drumului de acces din intravilanul oraşului către plaja Sulina, o lucrare în valoare de 7.898.002 de lei. Reabilitarea oraşului prin turism mai are în obiectiv sistematizarea şi amenajarea falezei şi a cimitirului maritim şi realizarea unui centru multifuncţional, prin reconversia actualei biblioteci orăşeneşti. După cum se ştie, Ministerul condus de Elena Udrea, derulează şi un proiect pilot în parteneriat cu ONU, Sulina beneficiind, alături de alte două destinaţii româneşti, şi de asistenţă din partea Programului Naţiunilor Unite pentru Dezvoltare, pentru realizarea unui plan de dezvoltare urbană integrată, ce va avea un efect revigorant asupra activităţilor de turism. Va fi lozul câştigător? Dacă ne luăm după exemplul dat de autorităţile locale se pare că da. În luna august au fost înregistraţi 8200 de turişti la o populaţie de 4.600 de locuitori. Numărul lor s-a triplat faţă de de cel consemnat în aceeaşi perioadă, în 2009.
\r\n- 52 DE INVESTIŢII SE AFLĂ ÎN FAZĂ DE DERULARE. Asta a reieşit din întâlnirea finală pe care am avut-o cu Victor Tarhon – preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean Tulcea. Omul este un fan al administraţiei publice în care s-a format şi îşi doreşte să performeze în slujba cetăţeanului. Poate vi se pare că sună a demagogie, dar normalitatea pare să se instaureze, dincolo de frecuşurile politice care nu ne privesc, în judeţul Tulcea. Majoritatea investiţiilor beneficiază de fonduri europene şi vizează lucrări în infrastructură de acces, reabilitări zonale, dezvoltări turistice, rurale şi culturale (cel mai recent fiind triunghiul rutier care valorifică Mănăstirile Celic Dere, Cocoş şi Saon, precum şi punerea în valoare a Bazilicii paleocreştine de la Niculiţel), proiecte ocupaţionale de reconversie a forţei de muncă, reabilitare a clădirilor de patrimoniu din Tulcea. Şi, desigur, construirea şi amenajarea unor zone unde vor fi gestionate deşeurile din localităţile din Delta Dunării. Pentru că odată cu creşterea circulaţiei turistice vor apărea şi efecte neplăcute ce vor trebui atenuate prin politici locale.\r\nMarele off al tulcenilor rămâne însă aeroportul „Delta Dunării”. Lipsit de rentabilitate el ar fi trebuit închis de mult timp. Deşi e o gaură neagră în bugetul administraţiei judeţene – lucru subliniat de către Tarhon -, se fac studii şi se caută soluţii pentru a fi măcar reorientat spre piaţa turistică. De aici ar putea veni salvarea dar asta va depinde foarte mult de motivaţia pe care ar avea-o unii touroperatori internaţionali şi companii aeriene de a... ateriza aici. După cum v-aţi edificat şi în numărul trecut, atracţii turistice sunt dar mai rămâne să fie ambalate frumos şi scoase la vânzare prin promovare. Şi pentru asta trebuiesc nu numai bani ci şi minţi ceva mai iuţi.

Se întâmplă ceva, o vrăjitorie a banilor turnaţi în betoane, sticlă şi mobilier. Se termină fix înainte să comanzi materiale de prezentare şi să cumperi serviciile unui... povestitor.\r\n\r\nParcă îmi sună un ecou în urechi, care se propagă de ani de zile – de asta ne arde nouă acum, de poveşti, de evenimente, de PR. Noi suntem investitori, nu avem timp să ne ocupăm de... mizilicuri. Oamenii sunt de bună credinţă. Majoritatea vin din zona construcţiilor. Hotelurile, restaurantele, vilele de vacanţă sunt deseori investiţii „gablonz”. Mai târziu îşi dau seama că turismul, naiba să-l ia, presupune o lume aparte. Aici banul investit generează profit după ani, dacă oamenii aleşi creează plus-valoare. E o industrie care serveşte oameni şi de aceea investiţia principală a ospitalităţii este în oameni. Unde s-a întâmplat aşa se vede cu ochiul liber. Unde nu, investitorul este şi patron, şi director, şi manager, şi administrator, este atotştiutorul, iar toţi execută ordinul transmis de jupân.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_685\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"209\" caption=\"Revista Traveller Magazin nr. 90\"][/caption]\r\n\r\nAm avut ocazia să-i admir, şi o spun cu sinceritate, în două recente vizite de documentare prin ţară (în Dobrogea şi în Transilvania) pe o parte din ei. I-am urmărit ca pe copiii care se bucură ce jucării frumoase au. Dar vremea copilăriei în turism trece repede. Mai ales când vezi că hotelul tău nu are luminile aprinse în camere, restaurantul e gol, ori la uşa agenţiei - fie fizic, fie online -, nu „bate” nimeni.\r\n\r\nE tot atât de clar unde bat şi eu. Tocmai în momentul în care trebuie să investeşti în ambalajul mărfii - şi aici vorbim de PR, publicitate şi relaţii cu presa de specialitate -, tocmai atunci investitorul spune pas. Nu în întregime, pentru că angajează o specie cu picioare lungi care ar ţine loc de... imagine. Ţine, dar la lipsa de idei din căpşoare şi la prunele din gură, care nu le permite să rostească decât cu greu câteva cuvinte de prezentare, nu e mare scofală. Am întâlnit asemenea exemplare care n-au nici în clin nici în mânecă cu meseria de... prezentatori. În afară de numele hotelului, câte camere are, altceva nu poţi să le rupi de la gură. Dragi investitori în turism, când terminaţi o frumuseţe de investiţie gândiţi-vă că ea trebuie… povestită cu talent, iar o poveste bună ştie să vândă. E drept va trebui să cheltuiţi ceva şi cu povestitorul. Gândiţi-vă ce-ar fi fost Curtea de Argeş fără povestitorul lui Negru Vodă sau al meşterului Manole?

Că tot bat la uşă sărbătorile de iarnă. O lucrare de promovare a Consiliului Judeţean Suceava, editată cu finanţare europeană, ne readuce aminte că avem tradiţii vii, care concurează cu cele păstrate în muzee occidentale ce stochează urmele unor culturi populare apuse demult. „Crăciun în Bucovina”, apărut în versiunile română şi engleză, este un album păstrător de viaţă. Prin el sunt promovate datinile şi obiceiurile zonei, preluate de la strămoşi, păstrate intacte şi transferate mai departe înaintaşilor. Ele fac din Bucovina, la fiecare sfârşit de an un loc unic pe planetă. Parcurgând paginile bogat ilustrate cu fotografii actuale, avem în faţă parcă o mare scenă pe care se desfăşoară un spectacol rarisim de măşti şi ceremonialuri, ce constituie atracţii de top pentru călătorii români şi străini.

Sir Sitwell sub umbrela României frumoase
După ce am parcurs volumul „Călător în România”, apărut în colecţia Vintage a editurii Humanitas mi-am pus întrebarea dacă Sir Sacheverell Sitwell nu este un autor contemporan. Întrebare retorică deoarece călătorul englez - poet, critic, istoric de artă, memorialist cu studii la Oxford -, a redactat această carte tradusă de Maria Berza, în anul... 1937. El a făcut o scurtă călătorie în România, la invitaţia prinţesei Anne-Marie Callimachi, cu puţină vreme înainte de izbucnirea celui de-al doilea Război Mondial. Astfel a devenit unul dintre ultimii martori culturali ai unei Românii aflată atunci în plină înflorire. Ne-au impresionat observaţiile profunde, dublate de referinţe estetice, făcute de la Hurezi până în Delta Dunării, de la comunităţile de ţigani căldărari până la bisericile pictate din Bucovina, de la Bucureşti până la Braşov, Sighişoara, Cozia ori Borsec. În peste 250 de pagini, cu reproduceri după ilustraţiile originale, autorul face observaţii demne de invidiat. Un exemplu:”Ajunseserăm în Oltenia, locul unde se ţes cele mai frumoase covoare româneşti. E cazul să recunoaştem că, după covoarele persane şi turceşti, cele olteneşti sunt într-adevăr cele mai frumoase”. Se vede că scriitorul de turism este un promotor de cultură. Aspect pe cale de uitare în România de azi.
\n\n\n\n
Un vagabond de lux prin lume
\nNe-a parvenit de ceva vreme la redacţie un volum concentrat şi prin de experienţe bogate de călătorie. „Jurnalul unui vagabond prin lume” este semnat de un român pe nume Costin Ştefan, care crede că e bine să rămână în urma noastră drumuri de hârtie tipărită cu experienţe personalizate. Reportajele sunt însoţite de fotografii neconvenţionale făcute în periplurile efectuate în India, Thailanda, Indonezia, Malaezia, Vietnam, Birmania, Cambodgia, Kenia, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania etc. Costin Ştefan nu trebuie să convingă pe nimeni că este un călător scriitor talentat. Asta este. Şi o dovedeşte din plin în acest al doilea volum de autor pe care vi-l semnalăm. Dacă viaţa „se măsoară în vise trăite şi nu în ani”, atunci cu prisosinţă merită să-l căutaţi în librării şi să-i cumpăraţi un exemplar. Nu veţi avea în faţă o carte ci 250 de pagini de vise, tipărite la Editura Lumina Tipo din Bucureşti. Volumul poate fi comandat şi la adresa: comanda@costinstefan.ro.

Elisabeta redescoperită la Herculane
\nPrin volumul al doilea al scriitorului Dorin Bălteanu, avem o nouă oglindă a fabuloaselor legende în majoritatea lor cu rădăcini reale. „Herculane – Arc peste timp” strânge în aproape 300 de pagini noi descoperiri făcute de autor în legătură cu trecerile unor personalităţi prin această staţiune, considerată cândva una dintre cele mai valoroase din lume. Împărăteasa Elisabeta a Austro-Ungariei, fascinanta Sisi, care ne-a lăsat şi o serie de poeme despre această zonă, regina Elisabeta a României, împăraţii Iosif al II-lea, Francisc I, Franz Iosef ori Regele Carol al II-lea, au lăsat urme ale gloriei lor la Herculane. Bălteanu excelează în acest volum prin interviuri şi declaraţii ale unor oameni mai puţin cunoscuţi, dar care au meritat cu prisosinţă să fie aduşi în prim plan. Prin ei istoria recentă a locurilor, capătă alte valenţe istorice prin investiţiile făcute de industria turistică în ultima jumătate de secol. Volumul, apărut la Editura Info din Craiova, îşi va găsi sigur un loc în biblioteca dumneavoastră.

EU looks for a brand
\r\nCarlo Fidanza, member of the European Parliament, believes that Europe must create a global brand in order to be able to compete with worldwide tourism markets. The European Parliament adopted a resolution that proposes the creation of a unique brand-label in order to promote Europe as the first tourism destination of the world. According to this document tourism must be supported by European subventions in order to innovate in the field and assure quality products.
\r\nThe Parliament thinks about a progressive leveling of qualification systems of the hotels in Europe and a reduced VAT to be applied to travel products. These measures are considered a step forward in reviving European economy, tourism being the third most important industry of the Union, covering 12% of the total labor force.','English version Traveller Magazin no 93-94','','publish','open','open','','english-version-traveller-magazin-no-93-94','','','2012-03-09 04:10:46','2012-03-09 02:10:46','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=882',0,'post','',0),(883,1,'2012-01-06 09:25:32','2012-01-06 07:25:32','','English version Traveller Magazin no 93-94 ','','inherit','open','open','','882-revision','','','2012-01-06 09:25:32','2012-01-06 07:25:32','',882,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2012/01/06/882-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(884,1,'2012-01-06 09:27:25','2012-01-06 07:27:25','','ceproc engl','','inherit','open','open','','ceproc-engl','','','2012-01-06 09:27:25','2012-01-06 07:27:25','',882,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/ceproc-engl.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(885,1,'2012-01-06 09:27:44','2012-01-06 07:27:44','','Fasion engl','','inherit','open','open','','fasion-engl','','','2012-01-06 09:27:44','2012-01-06 07:27:44','',882,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Fasion-engl.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(886,1,'2012-01-06 09:28:06','2012-01-06 07:28:06','','Hamtpon engl','','inherit','open','open','','hamtpon-engl','','','2012-01-06 09:28:06','2012-01-06 07:28:06','',882,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Hamtpon-engl.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(887,1,'2012-01-06 09:28:24','2012-01-06 07:28:24','','OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA','','inherit','open','open','','olympus-digital-camera-8','','','2012-01-06 09:28:24','2012-01-06 07:28:24','',882,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Rest-eurotoque-engl-3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(888,1,'2012-01-06 09:28:47','2012-01-06 07:28:47','','Trend 036','','inherit','open','open','','trend-036','','','2012-01-06 09:28:47','2012-01-06 07:28:47','',882,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Trend-036.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(889,1,'2012-01-06 09:26:22','2012-01-06 07:26:22','![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Coperta-93-94-site.jpg\" "\\"Coperta")

EU looks for a brand
\r\nCarlo Fidanza, member of the European Parliament, believes that Europe must create a global brand in order to be able to compete with worldwide tourism markets. The European Parliament adopted a resolution that proposes the creation of a unique brand-label in order to promote Europe as the first tourism destination of the world. According to this document tourism must be supported by European subventions in order to innovate in the field and assure quality products.\r\n\r\nThe Parliament thinks about a progressive leveling of qualification systems of the hotels in Europe and a reduced VAT to be applied to travel products. These measures are considered a step forward in reviving European economy, tourism being the third most important industry of the Union, covering 12% of the total labor force.

Peste 2,5 milioane de beculeţe ecologice au fost montate, cu prilejul Sărbătorilor de iarnă în centrul Bucureştiului. La începutul lunii decembrie Primăria Capitalei a promovat acest concept de campanie eco în parteneriat cu Luxten care a oferit gratuit sistemele de iluminat. Ca în marile capitale europene şi în cea a României atmosfera feerică este întreţinută şi decorată exclusiv cu beculeţe tip LED, care sunt şi mai spectaculoase decât cele tradiţionale dar şi de zece ori mai economicoase.\r\nLungimea traseelor iluminate festiv depăşeşte 21 de kilometri. “Startul” a fost dat pe 4 decembrie. Elementul surpriză al sfârşitului de an 2011 constă în faptul că, în premieră, mai multe clădiri de referinţă ale Bucureştiului de interes turistic, arhitectural ori cultural sunt “decorate” cu holograme cinetice a căror tematică este inspirată de sărbătorile de iarnă. Printre ele se numără Universitatea de Arhitectură şi Urbanism, Cercul Militar Naţional, Academia de Studii Economice, vechiul sediu al Primăriei de lângă Parcul Cişmigiu, dar şi alte locuri precum intrările spre Centrul Istoric.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSenioren 55+ s-a scumpit\r\n\r\n

Circa 10% din turiştii care au plecat în vacanţe în Spania prin programul Senioren 55+ în perioada 2009-2011, provin din România. Adică 10.646 din cei 98.653 de turişti internaţionali ce au folosit serviciile oferite în zona Andaluziei, Insulelor Baleare şi Valencia. Ele sunt finanţate şi susţinute de către guvernul spaniol, prin Turespana, şi administraţia locală fiecare într-o proporţie de 50%. Investiţia iniţială pentru acest program a fost de circa 12,38 milioane de euro iar la fiecare euro investit s-a întors în turismul spaniol 1,30 de euro. În urma chestionarului de satifacţie 94,2% dintre românii care au apelat la program au declarat că vor reveni în una din destinaţiile spaniole în următorii ani – precizează Segitur, firma care se ocupă cu marketingul acestei campanii. |\r\nEa are ca menire să acopere perioada de extrasezon şi se adresează călătorilor activi cu vârste de peste 55 de ani. Românii a consumat, în 2010, 794.383 de nopţi de cazare, ceea ce reprezintă o creştere cu 14% faţă de 2009. Senioren 55+, pe Spania asigură în mod curent 1.700 de joburi directe pe tot parcursul derulării lui. Dacă până anul trecut programul era operat în România de firma Christian Tour, din 2011 el e derulat de Happy Tour.\r\n\r\nÎn comparaţie cu anul trecut când preţul maxim atingea 395 de euro (7 zile, all inclusive) în acest an el a fost ajustat în sus la 485, dar în regim de demi-pensiune. Există însă numeroase oferte promoţionale sub acest preţ. Operatorul român aerian cu care sunt derulate aceste programe pe rutele Malaga, Valencia şi Majorca este Blue Air, care va asigura noi zboruri spre Valencia şi Majorca, în perioada 1 februarie-18 aprilie.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nO INIŢIATIVĂ A CLUBULUI ECONOMIC GERMAN\r\n\r\nBraşovul găzduieşte un minunat Târg de Crăciun organizat în curtea Bisericii Negre. Inspirat din Târgul de Craciun de la Nurmberg - Christkindlesmarkt Braşov 2011, el s-a transformat într-un loc de poveste căzut sub ocupaţia tăvilor cu plăcinte calde, ceaiului, ciocolatei cu scorţişoară, vinului fiert, ori a decoraţiunilor specifice sărbătorilor de iarnă realizate manual de către meşteri talentaţi. Aici vă mai întâlniţi cu prăjiturele şi biscuiţii cu unt, turta dulce, migdale şi nuci trase în zahăr şi produse tradiţionale.\r\nCa şi anii trecuţi continuă campania “Un cadou pentru fiecare copil”. În incinta târgului de Crăciun veţi găsi căsuţa fundaţiei Salvaţi Copiii. Aici puteţi dona orice obiect care va aduce bucurie în sufletul unui copil sărac. În 2009 copiii din 7 sate braşovene şi câteva centre de plasament au primit daruri prin această campanie iar anul trecut au fost donate jucării, haine, rechizite copiiilor săraci din Măieruş. Poţi fi şi tu Moş Crăciun pentru un copil nevoiaş! Evenimentul e susţinut prin parteneriat media şi de revista Traveller Magazin.\r\n\r\nRĂZVAN PÎRJOL ESTE NOUL LIDER AL SKAL\r\n\r\nCu ocazia Adunării general a Clubului Skal România, membrii săi au ales un nou Comitet Executiv care va conduce organizaţia în următorii doi ani. În poziţia de preşedinte a fost ales Răzvan Pîrjol, CEO THR – Consulting Group. Vicepreşedinţia a revenit lui Lucian Boronea, Director General Accent Travel & Events, iar poziţia de secretar este ocupată de Călin ILE, director general al hotelului IBIS. Pentru funcţia de trezorier a fost ales Mihai Râjniţă, secretar general al FIHR. După cum se ştie domnul Anthoni Kuhnen, este preşedintele de onoare al Skal România. Clubul reuneşte toate sectoarele industriei turistice de la lanţuri hoteliere şi touroperatori până la companii aeriene.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nSE GÂNDESC KUWEITIENII LA TURISMUL MEDICAL DIN ŢARA NOASTRĂ? \r\n\r\nRăspunsul pare a fi pozitiv cel puţin la nivel oficial. Elena Udrea, ministrul turismului şi Ladislau Ritli, ministrul sănătăţii, au anunţat că reprezentanţii unui spital privat din Kuweit dezvoltă un proiect de turism de sănătate în România. El a demarat în cursul acestui an şi presupune tratament de recuperare pentru pacienţii kuweitieni ai Spitalului Alorf în unităţi turistice specializate din staţiunea Băile Felix. Ţinta economică este estimată la circa 2.000 de turişti pe an în România. Udrea le-a vorbit reprezentanţilor Spitalului Alorf despre aspecte legate de dezvoltarea staţiunilor baneare româneşti, iar Directorul spitalului, doctorul Mansour Alorf, s-a declarat extrem de mulţumit de colaborare. El a subliniat că”gradul înalt de satisfacţie al pacienţilor care s-au recuperat deja în România oferă perspectiva extinderii parteneriatului”. Încă de la demararea proiectului, Spitalul Alorf a derulat o campanie de promovare în Kuweit a „tratamentelor miraculoase” de la Băile Felix, tipărind 500.000 de pliante de prezentare a staţiunii româneşti, distribuite împreună cu principalele ziare de limbă arabă din Kuweit.\r\n\r\nEXPOZIŢIE DE CARTE VECHE \r\n\r\nPână pe 23 ianuarie 2012 puteţi vizita expoziţia de carte veche şi obiecte liturgice din secolele XVII-XVIII: „Întru folosul creştinescului norod” - cultură şi spiritualitate în Ţara Românească (a doua jumătate a secolului al XVII-lea - secolul al XVIII-lea). Aceasta este organizată de Muzeul Naţional Cotroceni în colaborare cu Patriarhia Ortodoxă Română - Biblioteca Sfântului Sinod, în Spaţiile Cantacuzine ale muzeului. Dintre exemplarele rare, în expoziţie se regăsesc: Pravoslavnica Mărturisire (1691), Evanghelie greco-română (1693), Antologhion (1697), Acatistul către Preasfânta Născătoare de Dumnezeu (1698, carte unicat), Mineiul (1698), etc. Seria tipăriturilor din perioada care face obiectul expoziţiei, se încheie cu Istoria Sfântă a lui Alexandru Mavrocordat, tipărită în 1716, la iniţiativa fiului său, Nicolae Mavrocordat. Evenimentul încheie proiectul cultural ”Cotroceni XX”, dedicat aniversării a 20 de ani (1991-2011), de la înfiinţarea Muzeului Naţional Cotroceni.

\n\n \n\nO INIŢIATIVĂ A CLUBULUI ECONOMIC GERMAN\n\nBraşovul găzduieşte un minunat Târg de Crăciun organizat în curtea Bisericii Negre. Inspirat din Târgul de Craciun de la Nurmberg - Christkindlesmarkt Braşov 2011, el s-a transformat într-un loc de poveste căzut sub ocupaţia tăvilor cu plăcinte calde, ceaiului, ciocolatei cu scorţişoară, vinului fiert, ori a decoraţiunilor specifice sărbătorilor de iarnă realizate manual de către meşteri talentaţi. Aici vă mai întâlniţi cu prăjiturele şi biscuiţii cu unt, turta dulce, migdale şi nuci trase în zahăr şi produse tradiţionale.\nCa şi anii trecuţi continuă campania “Un cadou pentru fiecare copil”. În incinta târgului de Crăciun veţi găsi căsuţa fundaţiei Salvaţi Copiii. Aici puteţi dona orice obiect care va aduce bucurie în sufletul unui copil sărac. În 2009 copiii din 7 sate braşovene şi câteva centre de plasament au primit daruri prin această campanie iar anul trecut au fost donate jucării, haine, rechizite copiiilor săraci din Măieruş. Poţi fi şi tu Moş Crăciun pentru un copil nevoiaş!

Elena Udrea, ministrul turismului şi Ladislau Ritli, ministrul sănătăţii, au anunţat că reprezentanţii unui spital privat din Kuweit dezvoltă un proiect de turism de sănătate în România. El a demarat în cursul acestui an şi presupune tratament de recuperare pentru pacienţii kuweitieni ai Spitalului Alorf în unităţi turistice specializate din staţiunea Băile Felix. Ţinta economică este estimată la circa 2.000 de turişti pe an în România. Udrea le-a vorbit reprezentanţilor Spitalului Alorf despre aspecte legate de dezvoltarea staţiunilor baneare româneşti, iar Directorul spitalului, doctorul Mansour Alorf, s-a declarat extrem de mulţumit de colaborare. El a subliniat că”gradul înalt de satisfacţie al pacienţilor care s-au recuperat deja în România oferă perspectiva extinderii parteneriatului”. Încă de la demararea proiectului, Spitalul Alorf a derulat o campanie de promovare în Kuweit a „tratamentelor miraculoase” de la Băile Felix, tipărind 500.000 de pliante de prezentare a staţiunii româneşti, distribuite împreună cu principalele ziare de limbă arabă din Kuweit.\n\nEXPOZIŢIE DE CARTE VECHE \n\nPână pe 23 ianuarie 2012 puteţi vizita expoziţia de carte veche şi obiecte liturgice din secolele XVII-XVIII: „Întru folosul creştinescului norod” - cultură şi spiritualitate în Ţara Românească (a doua jumătate a secolului al XVII-lea - secolul al XVIII-lea). Aceasta este organizată de Muzeul Naţional Cotroceni în colaborare cu Patriarhia Ortodoxă Română - Biblioteca Sfântului Sinod, în Spaţiile Cantacuzine ale muzeului. Dintre exemplarele rare, în expoziţie se regăsesc: Pravoslavnica Mărturisire (1691), Evanghelie greco-română (1693), Antologhion (1697), Acatistul către Preasfânta Născătoare de Dumnezeu (1698, carte unicat), Mineiul (1698), etc. Seria tipăriturilor din perioada care face obiectul expoziţiei, se încheie cu Istoria Sfântă a lui Alexandru Mavrocordat, tipărită în 1716, la iniţiativa fiului său, Nicolae Mavrocordat. Evenimentul încheie proiectul cultural ”Cotroceni XX”, dedicat aniversării a 20 de ani (1991-2011), de la înfiinţarea Muzeului Naţional Cotroceni.

ŞI ÎN 2012 UŞILE SE VOR DESCHIDE CU BANI
Se va dezgheţa piaţa investiţiilor în industria ospitalităţii ? Cei de la Continental fac un pas înainte, lanţul Hilton nu renunţă la cadenţă şi anunţă un nou botez, germanii testează piaţa, iar banii SIF Transilvania urcă pe conducta societăţii Turism Felix spre o investiţie cu profil balnear.
\r\nBRANDURI ÎN MIŞCARE\r\nDupă DoubleTree vine şi Hampton \r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Hotel-Adela-Cristea-Hampton.jpg\" "\\"Hotel")
Brandul Hampton va fi vedeta lanţului Hilton Worldwide pe anul 2012 în România. Anul viitor sunt anunţate două intrări pe piaţă la Braşov, respectiv Cluj – a declarat Adela Cristea, director de dezvoltare a grupului pentru Europa şi Africa. Conform datelor disponibile hotelul Hampton din Cluj se află în clădirea Akros, proiectată iniţial pentru birouri şi locuinţe. El va avea o capacitate de 109 camere. Investiţia depăşeşte 10 milioane de euro şi include hotelul cât şi componenta rezidenţială pe care o va avea complexul Akros, un imobil cu 20 de apartamente de lux. Hilton Worldwide negociaza în prezent lansarea încă a unui brand al companiei în Cluj. Anunţul confirmă planurile de expansiune anunţate de către Hilton Worldwide în România. În acest an vedeta a fost brandul DoubleTree, care s-a poziţionat în trei localităţi – Bucureşti, Ploieşti şi Oradea.\r\n\r\nConform aceleiaşi surse expansiunea investitorilor de la Hilton va continua şi în România. Într-un interval cuprins între 5 până la 10 ani, vor fi deschise în ţara noastră între 20 şi 30 de hoteluri cu branduri din familia Hilton Worldwide. Didier Martin, vicepreşedinte la Hilton Worldwide pentru Europa de Est, Turcia, Rusia şi Israel, a declarat că se poartă discuţii avansate cu mai mulţi investitori pentru hoteluri din Timişoara, Iaşi şi Constanţa.

Ce se mai aude de la Continental ?\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Hotel-Conti-Radu-Enache.jpg\" "\\"Hotel")
În primul rând vedeta lanţului, Hello Hotels, brandul de 2 stele, va face revoluţie. Conform declaraţiei Mihaelei Staicu, purtător de cuvânt la Continental Hotels, se vor deschide în următorii ani, pe segmentul economic, 10 noi hoteluri cu acest brand, unul dintre cele 9 deţinute şi operate de lanţul românesc. În momentul de faţă sunt analizate cele mai bune opţiuni şi locaţii. De asemenea, după mai mulţi ani de stat în expectativă, Radu Enache, preşedintele Continental Hotels a declarat că în 2012 va fi investită suma de 3,5 milioane de euro în modernizarea hotelului Continental din Suceava. La final acesta va reveni pe piaţă cu o clasificare de 4 stele.\r\n\r\nPe partea de tranzacţii grupul spaniol GED a anunţat că a achiziţionat de la fondul de capital de risc PPF Partners participaţia de 30% deţinută în cadrul lanţului hotelier Continental Hotels, controlat de omul de afaceri Radu Enache. Aceasta este considerată cea mai mare investiţie făcută în Europa de Est de fondul spaniol. Continentalul este a cincea companie din sectorul turistic în care se implică investitorii de la GED, dar singura hotelieră, celelalte fiind realizate în sectorul de travel unde au fost achiziţionate agenţiile Happy Tour, Travel House, Paravion şi Prestige Tour.

Peste 2,5 milioane de beculeţe ecologice au fost montate, cu prilejul Sărbătorilor de iarnă în centrul Bucureştiului. La începutul lunii decembrie Primăria Capitalei a promovat acest concept de campanie eco în parteneriat cu Luxten care a oferit gratuit sistemele de iluminat. Ca în marile capitale europene şi în cea a României atmosfera feerică este întreţinută şi decorată exclusiv cu beculeţe tip LED, care sunt şi mai spectaculoase decât cele tradiţionale dar şi de zece ori mai economicoase.\nLungimea traseelor iluminate festiv depăşeşte 21 de kilometri. “Startul” a fost dat pe 4 decembrie. Elementul surpriză al sfârşitului de an 2011 constă în faptul că, în premieră, mai multe clădiri de referinţă ale Bucureştiului de interes turistic, arhitectural ori cultural sunt “decorate” cu holograme cinetice a căror tematică este inspirată de sărbătorile de iarnă. Printre ele se numără Universitatea de Arhitectură şi Urbanism, Cercul Militar Naţional, Academia de Studii Economice, vechiul sediu al Primăriei de lângă Parcul Cişmigiu, dar şi alte locuri precum intrările spre Centrul Istoric.\n\n\n\nSenioren 55+ s-a scumpit\n\n

După cum a precizat în deschidere Mohammad Murad, preşedintele FPTR “manifestarea şi-a propus să recompenseze o parte dintre cele mai reuşite investiţii în turism menite să contribuie la dezvoltarea industriei turistice din România la standarde internationale, precum şi personalităţi preocupate de promovarea ţării noastre ca destinaţie turistică atractivă”.\r\n\r\nPremiul pentru cel mai fashion hotel din Delta Dunării, a revenit Hotelului Plutitor Camelia; Cel mai fashion hotel montan a fost desemnat Hotelul Valea cu Peşti. Pe segmentul balnear au fost recompensate complexul Internaţional din Băile Herculane respectiv Staţiunea Sovata, cunoscută drept perla staţiunilor balneoclimaterice din Transilvania. Premiul pentru cel mai fashion Centru de evenimente – a revenit Ambasad’Or, iar cel mai fashion multiplex a fost desemnat Grand Cinema Digiplex. \r\n\r\nPremiul pentru agenţia de turism cu cele mai fashion şi exclusiviste destinaţii din lume a fost acordat agenţiei Mareea; la secţiunea Boutique-hotel distincţia a revenit Grand Hotel Continental din Bucureşti; cea mai mare investiţie din turismul românesc pe segmentul loisir a avut ca nominalizare câştigătoare hotelurile Phoenicia Holiday Resort, iar premiul pentru Cel mai fashion restaurant cu specific a fost acordat restaurantului Trattoria Verdi. Premiul de Excelenţă a fost decernat “pentru contribuiţia de o viaţă la dezvoltarea turismului românesc”, domnului Viorel Păunescu.\r\nMARA ANTON\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nEco-sărbători la Bucureşti\r\n
Peste 2,5 milioane de beculeţe ecologice au fost montate, cu prilejul Sărbătorilor de iarnă în centrul Bucureştiului. La începutul lunii decembrie Primăria Capitalei a promovat acest concept de campanie eco în parteneriat cu Luxten care a oferit gratuit sistemele de iluminat. Ca în marile capitale europene şi în cea a României atmosfera feerică este întreţinută şi decorată exclusiv cu beculeţe tip LED, care sunt şi mai spectaculoase decât cele tradiţionale dar şi de zece ori mai economicoase.\r\nLungimea traseelor iluminate festiv depăşeşte 21 de kilometri. “Startul” a fost dat pe 4 decembrie. Elementul surpriză al sfârşitului de an 2011 constă în faptul că, în premieră, mai multe clădiri de referinţă ale Bucureştiului de interes turistic, arhitectural ori cultural sunt “decorate” cu holograme cinetice a căror tematică este inspirată de sărbătorile de iarnă. Printre ele se numără Universitatea de Arhitectură şi Urbanism, Cercul Militar Naţional, Academia de Studii Economice, vechiul sediu al Primăriei de lângă Parcul Cişmigiu, dar şi alte locuri precum intrările spre Centrul Istoric.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nSenioren 55+ s-a scumpit\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n
Circa 10% din turiştii care au plecat în vacanţe în Spania prin programul Senioren 55+ în perioada 2009-2011, provin din România. Adică 10.646 din cei 98.653 de turişti internaţionali ce au folosit serviciile oferite în zona Andaluziei, Insulelor Baleare şi Valencia. Ele sunt finanţate şi susţinute de către guvernul spaniol, prin Turespana, şi administraţia locală fiecare într-o proporţie de 50%. Investiţia iniţială pentru acest program a fost de circa 12,38 milioane de euro iar la fiecare euro investit s-a întors în turismul spaniol 1,30 de euro. În urma chestionarului de satifacţie 94,2% dintre românii care au apelat la program au declarat că vor reveni în una din destinaţiile spaniole în următorii ani – precizează Segitur, firma care se ocupă cu marketingul acestei campanii. |\r\nEa are ca menire să acopere perioada de extrasezon şi se adresează călătorilor activi cu vârste de peste 55 de ani. Românii a consumat, în 2010, 794.383 de nopţi de cazare, ceea ce reprezintă o creştere cu 14% faţă de 2009. Senioren 55+, pe Spania asigură în mod curent 1.700 de joburi directe pe tot parcursul derulării lui. Dacă până anul trecut programul era operat în România de firma Christian Tour, din 2011 el e derulat de Happy Tour.\r\n\r\nÎn comparaţie cu anul trecut când preţul maxim atingea 395 de euro (7 zile, all inclusive) în acest an el a fost ajustat în sus la 485, dar în regim de demi-pensiune. Există însă numeroase oferte promoţionale sub acest preţ. Operatorul român aerian cu care sunt derulate aceste programe pe rutele Malaga, Valencia şi Majorca este Blue Air, care va asigura noi zboruri spre Valencia şi Majorca, în perioada 1 februarie-18 aprilie.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nO INIŢIATIVĂ A CLUBULUI ECONOMIC GERMAN\r\n\r\nBraşovul găzduieşte un minunat Târg de Crăciun organizat în curtea Bisericii Negre. Inspirat din Târgul de Craciun de la Nurmberg - Christkindlesmarkt Braşov 2011, el s-a transformat într-un loc de poveste căzut sub ocupaţia tăvilor cu plăcinte calde, ceaiului, ciocolatei cu scorţişoară, vinului fiert, ori a decoraţiunilor specifice sărbătorilor de iarnă realizate manual de către meşteri talentaţi. Aici vă mai întâlniţi cu prăjiturele şi biscuiţii cu unt, turta dulce, migdale şi nuci trase în zahăr şi produse tradiţionale.\r\nCa şi anii trecuţi continuă campania “Un cadou pentru fiecare copil”. În incinta târgului de Crăciun veţi găsi căsuţa fundaţiei Salvaţi Copiii. Aici puteţi dona orice obiect care va aduce bucurie în sufletul unui copil sărac. În 2009 copiii din 7 sate braşovene şi câteva centre de plasament au primit daruri prin această campanie iar anul trecut au fost donate jucării, haine, rechizite copiiilor săraci din Măieruş. Poţi fi şi tu Moş Crăciun pentru un copil nevoiaş! Evenimentul e susţinut prin parteneriat media şi de revista Traveller Magazin.\r\n\r\nRĂZVAN PÎRJOL ESTE NOUL LIDER AL SKAL\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCu ocazia Adunării general a Clubului Skal România, membrii săi au ales un nou Comitet Executiv care va conduce organizaţia în următorii doi ani. În poziţia de preşedinte a fost ales Răzvan Pîrjol, CEO THR – Consulting Group. Vicepreşedinţia a revenit lui Lucian Boronea, Director General Accent Travel & Events, iar poziţia de secretar este ocupată de Călin ILE, director general al hotelului IBIS. Pentru funcţia de trezorier a fost ales Mihai Râjniţă, secretar general al FIHR. După cum se ştie domnul Anthoni Kuhnen, este preşedintele de onoare al Skal România. Clubul reuneşte toate sectoarele industriei turistice de la lanţuri hoteliere şi touroperatori până la companii aeriene.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nSE GÂNDESC KUWEITIENII LA TURISMUL MEDICAL DIN ŢARA NOASTRĂ? \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nRăspunsul pare a fi pozitiv cel puţin la nivel oficial. Elena Udrea, ministrul turismului şi Ladislau Ritli, ministrul sănătăţii, au anunţat că reprezentanţii unui spital privat din Kuweit dezvoltă un proiect de turism de sănătate în România. El a demarat în cursul acestui an şi presupune tratament de recuperare pentru pacienţii kuweitieni ai Spitalului Alorf în unităţi turistice specializate din staţiunea Băile Felix. Ţinta economică este estimată la circa 2.000 de turişti pe an în România. Udrea le-a vorbit reprezentanţilor Spitalului Alorf despre aspecte legate de dezvoltarea staţiunilor baneare româneşti, iar Directorul spitalului, doctorul Mansour Alorf, s-a declarat extrem de mulţumit de colaborare. El a subliniat că”gradul înalt de satisfacţie al pacienţilor care s-au recuperat deja în România oferă perspectiva extinderii parteneriatului”. Încă de la demararea proiectului, Spitalul Alorf a derulat o campanie de promovare în Kuweit a „tratamentelor miraculoase” de la Băile Felix, tipărind 500.000 de pliante de prezentare a staţiunii româneşti, distribuite împreună cu principalele ziare de limbă arabă din Kuweit.\r\n\r\nEXPOZIŢIE DE CARTE VECHE \r\n\r\nPână pe 23 ianuarie 2012 puteţi vizita expoziţia de carte veche şi obiecte liturgice din secolele XVII-XVIII: „Întru folosul creştinescului norod” - cultură şi spiritualitate în Ţara Românească (a doua jumătate a secolului al XVII-lea - secolul al XVIII-lea). Aceasta este organizată de Muzeul Naţional Cotroceni în colaborare cu Patriarhia Ortodoxă Română - Biblioteca Sfântului Sinod, în Spaţiile Cantacuzine ale muzeului. Dintre exemplarele rare, în expoziţie se regăsesc: Pravoslavnica Mărturisire (1691), Evanghelie greco-română (1693), Antologhion (1697), Acatistul către Preasfânta Născătoare de Dumnezeu (1698, carte unicat), Mineiul (1698), etc. Seria tipăriturilor din perioada care face obiectul expoziţiei, se încheie cu Istoria Sfântă a lui Alexandru Mavrocordat, tipărită în 1716, la iniţiativa fiului său, Nicolae Mavrocordat. Evenimentul încheie proiectul cultural ”Cotroceni XX”, dedicat aniversării a 20 de ani (1991-2011), de la înfiinţarea Muzeului Naţional Cotroceni.

ŞI ÎN 2012 UŞILE SE VOR DESCHIDE CU BANI
Se va dezgheţa piaţa investiţiilor în industria ospitalităţii ? Cei de la Continental fac un pas înainte, lanţul Hilton nu renunţă la cadenţă şi anunţă un nou botez, germanii testează piaţa, iar banii SIF Transilvania urcă pe conducta societăţii Turism Felix spre o investiţie cu profil balnear.
\nBRANDURI ÎN MIŞCARE\nDupă DoubleTree vine şi Hampton \n\nBrandul Hampton va fi vedeta lanţului Hilton Worldwide pe anul 2012 în România. Anul viitor sunt anunţate două intrări pe piaţă la Braşov, respectiv Cluj – a declarat Adela Cristea, director de dezvoltare a grupului pentru Europa şi Africa. Conform datelor disponibile hotelul Hampton din Cluj se află în clădirea Akros, proiectată iniţial pentru birouri şi locuinţe. El va avea o capacitate de 109 camere. Investiţia depăşeşte 10 milioane de euro şi include hotelul cât şi componenta rezidenţială pe care o va avea complexul Akros, un imobil cu 20 de apartamente de lux. Hilton Worldwide negociaza în prezent lansarea încă a unui brand al companiei în Cluj. Anunţul confirmă planurile de expansiune anunţate de către Hilton Worldwide în România. În acest an vedeta a fost brandul DoubleTree, care s-a poziţionat în trei localităţi – Bucureşti, Ploieşti şi Oradea.\n\nConform aceleiaşi surse expansiunea investitorilor de la Hilton va continua şi în România. Într-un interval cuprins între 5 până la 10 ani, vor fi deschise în ţara noastră între 20 şi 30 de hoteluri cu branduri din familia Hilton Worldwide. Didier Martin, vicepreşedinte la Hilton Worldwide pentru Europa de Est, Turcia, Rusia şi Israel, a declarat că se poartă discuţii avansate cu mai mulţi investitori pentru hoteluri din Timişoara, Iaşi şi Constanţa.
INVESTIŢII \nFelixul va avea şi un... Lotus\n \nFlorin Serac, directorul general al companiei Turism Felix din staţiunea balneoclimaterică Felix a anunţat o investiţie de circa 20 de milioane de euro care se vor transforma în Lotus - primul hotel cu profil balnear integrat din România. Conform planurilor el va intra pe piaţă la sfârşitul anului viitor cu un standard de 5 stele. Iniţial unitatea urma să fie promovată la un nivel de 4 stele. Hotelul Lotus va completa oferta superioară de cazare formată din complexele Nufărul, Termal şi Internaţional, ce se află în portofoliul SC Turism Felix SA. Conform proiectului el va oferi 220 de camere şi va beneficia de o baza de tratament pentru afecţiuni reumatismale şi post-traumatice.
Ce se mai aude de la Continental ?\nÎn primul rând vedeta lanţului, Hello Hotels, brandul de 2 stele, va face revoluţie. Conform declaraţiei Mihaelei Staicu, purtător de cuvânt la Continental Hotels, se vor deschide în următorii ani, pe segmentul economic, 10 noi hoteluri cu acest brand, unul dintre cele 9 deţinute şi operate de lanţul românesc. În momentul de faţă sunt analizate cele mai bune opţiuni şi locaţii. De asemenea, după mai mulţi ani de stat în expectativă, Radu Enache, preşedintele Continental Hotels a declarat că în 2012 va fi investită suma de 3,5 milioane de euro în modernizarea hotelului Continental din Suceava. La final acesta va reveni pe piaţă cu o clasificare de 4 stele.\n\nPe partea de tranzacţii grupul spaniol GED a anunţat că a achiziţionat de la fondul de capital de risc PPF Partners participaţia de 30% deţinută în cadrul lanţului hotelier Continental Hotels, controlat de omul de afaceri Radu Enache. Aceasta este considerată cea mai mare investiţie făcută în Europa de Est de fondul spaniol. Continentalul este a cincea companie din sectorul turistic în care se implică investitorii de la GED, dar singura hotelieră, celelalte fiind realizate în sectorul de travel unde au fost achiziţionate agenţiile Happy Tour, Travel House, Paravion şi Prestige Tour.

\r\nMIGUEL ANGEL BRERA: „Aş fi fost felicitat daca scriam ca Ceauşescu era o canalie, iar România o porcarie !”
![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Brera-3-mere-de-aur.jpg\" "\\"Brera")
Pentru cine nu ştie România deţine azi patru „Pomme D’Or” (Mărul de aur), recunoscute ca fiind echivalentul premiilor Oscar în turism. Ele sunt decernate periodic de către FIJET. Primul a recompensat Bucovina în 1975 şi e păzit cu străşnicie la Mănăstirea Moldoviţa. Celelalte 3, primite în 2009, au premiat zona Mărginimea Sibiului, Rezervaţia Biosferei „Delta Dunării”, respectiv compania aeriană „Blue Air”. Miguel Angel Brera este o legendă vie. În calitate de jurnalist de turism a fost martorul acestor evenimente, şi chiar cel care a adus primul „Măr de Aur” în România. Spaniol get-beget, a fost o lungă perioadă preşedintele FIJET (Federaţia Internaţională a Jurnaliştilor şi Editorilor de Turism) iar azi e preşedintele de onoare al organizaţiei. Profesor de turism la o universitate din Madrid el a publicat numeroase articole şi reportaje despre ţara noastră. De ce iubeşte România de o viaţă ? Aflaţi din acest interviu.
-Domnule Miguel Brera nu vă aflaţi pentru prima dată în România, nu-i aşa ?![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Brera-cu-Driectorul-Gheorghe-Racaru-Blue-Air.jpg\" "\\"Brera")
-Nu, acum ma aflu la al 53-lea congres internaţional al jurnaliştilor de turism. La o întâlnire, unul dintre organizatorii români de la Clubul Presei de Turism – FIJET România, a rugat sa ridice mâna cine se afla în România pentru prima data şi cine a fost de mai multe ori. Eu eram cel care a fost în ţara dumneavoastră de cele mai multe ori. Nu am o memorie a cifrelor dar prima dată se întâmpla prin 1958-1960, apoi am revenit în epoca lui Ceauşescu. România era pe atunci o minunaţie şi înca este. Era o ţara vesela, avea - ca şi acum - un peisaj foarte variat, pitoresc, monumental, plin de savoare culturala şi istorica. În acei ani, problema era ca viaţa era puţin clandestina, oamenii trebuiau sa-şi fereasca intimitatea. Cum nu aveau multa încredere în tine, nu ţi se dezvaluiau prea mult. În acea epoca, dupa prima mea calatorie, am fost invitat de Guvernul lui Ceauşescu de mai multe ori. De fapt, de fiecare data când doream sa vin în România, eram invitat. Iar asta se întâmpla cel puţin o data pe an. Atunci când ajungeam, la aeroport ma aştepta o maşina, un şofer şi un ghid.
\r\n-Era dificil pentru un jurnalist spaniol de turism sa ajunga în România?
\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Brera-cu-primar-Sibiel1.jpg\" "\\"Brera")
-Nu, nu era dificil. În general, nu existau probleme. Prima data am venit în interes turistic, cu un grup de turişti spanioli. Nu mă cunoştea nimeni. Existau puţine informaţii despre realitatea politica şi sociala româneasca. Aproape niciuna adevarata şi niciuna importanta. Însa informaţiile turistice erau mai multe şi consistente decât acum. Pentru Spania, România era atunci un loc în care veneam şi despre care existau informaţii minunate. Îmi amintesc un nume: Filipescu. A fost mult timp Ataşat pe Turism al Ambasadei României la Madrid şi a atras atât de multe persoane, încât a umplut România de spanioli. Îmi pare rau că acum spun asta. Dar turismul funcţiona mult mai bine în perioada dictaturii. După Revoluţie am vorbit cu mai mulţi miniştrii de turism, dar ce spun, cu toţi. Discuţiile cu ei mi-au dat impresia ca turismul nu era principala lor preocupare. Cred ca asta a facut ca turismul sa scada.
-Dar în ceea ce priveşte munca de jurnalist, va simţeaţi controlat în perioada Ceauşescu ?\r\n-Restricţia principala exista în privinţa fotografiilor. Erau locuri în care ghidul îmi spunea ca este interzis fotografiatul. În ceea ce priveşte scrisul, eu veneam din Spania, o ţara în care aveam libertatea de a scrie despre orice alta ţara. Nu puteam scrie despre politica spaniola, pentru ca la putere era Franco, însa puteam scrie despre alte ţari. Aş fi fost inclusiv felicitat daca scriam ca Ceauşescu era o canalie, iar România o porcarie. Asta pentru ca Spania era anticomunista, iar relaţiile cu Ceauşescu nu erau bune. Însa, conform statutului FIJET, nu ne este permis sa intervenim în probleme politice. Ci să scriem numai despre turism. Aici e puterea şi valoarea noastră. Aveam obligaţia de a vorbi despre turism, despre peisaje, ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Brera-si-Primarul-Alexandru-Craiut-Moldovita-1975.jpg\" "\\"Brera")
despre istorie... Asta e minunat, pentru ca dacă ai talent şi cultură mereu vei descoperi o atracţie despre care merită scris. Puteam sa aduc critici de genul unor observaţii care să conducă la creşterea sau modernizarea actului turistic din ţara dumneavoastră. Eram deseori sunat de la ambasada şi ma felicitau pentru cum am scris despre România. Sigur, erau alte timpuri, când oamenii erau mai atenţi şi preţuiau cum se cuvine munca celor din jur. Oriunde sunt întrebat ce loc din Europa îmi place cel mai mult, mereu spun ca după Spania, prima ţară este România, iar din Americi, mereu spun Guatemala.
- Suntem europeni şi ne-am aliniat la preţurile europene! Cum era înainte de anii 1989, era România o destinaţie ieftină ?
\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Mar-de-aur-Moldovita.jpg\" "\\"Mar")
-Da, era şi foarte accesibilă. Deşi era ieftin, nu te simţeai în largul tau mai ales în acel ultim deceniu, apăruseră probleme cu mâncarea. Aveaţi hoteluri foarte bune în zona litoralului, pe care le-am revazut dupa mulţi ani căzute în paragina. Da, era ieftin sa vii în România. Şi calatoria cu TAROM-ul era ieftina. Era o companie buna cu preţuri bune. Prima data am venit cu un pachet de 15 zile, foarte ieftin, care includea România, Bulgaria şi Turcia. Cred ca ar trebui sa se reia o asemenea colaborare. Mai ales că acum Turcia are mult succes, iar pentru voi ar fi foarte interesant sa formaţi pachete turistice împreuna. Eu am spus asta miniştrilor, dar...
- În opinia dumneavoastră, ca jurnalist de turism, care era zona cea mai promovata în acea perioadă? \r\n-Cred ca turiştii se lasau convinşi de ceea ce era mai promovat, iar zonele cele mai promovate erau Marea Neagra şi manastririle din Bucovina. Alte zone dragi mie, cum ar fi Maramureşul, Sapânţa, nu erau cunoscute. Nici zona legata de legenda lui Dracula nu era promovata.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Brera-cu-mine1.jpg\" "\\"Brera")
-Aveţi o relaţie îndelungată cu România. Cum vi se pare că a evoluat ţara noastra pe parcursul ultimelor două decenii ?
\r\n- În regimul anterior aveaţi o ţara de oameni minunaţi şi veseli, dar întristaţi din cauza clandestinitaţii vieţii şi a problemelor cu care se confruntau. Apoi a venit democraţia, care a adus multa bucurie ţarii, a adus libertate. Înainte nu existau atâtea terase, cafenele, restaurante... Toate acestea au aparut odata cu democraţia, însa au aparut lent. Evoluţia ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Mar-de-aur-Tulcea.jpg\" "\\"Mar")
nu a fost imediata, ci lenta. Din punct de vedere economic, exista progres, însa nu atât cât ar fi trebuit. De aceea mulţi români emigreaza. Situaţia românilor din Spania nu este atât de buna pe cât au crezut ei, pentru ca acum Spania nu se afla într-o situaţie economica buna. Am români în jurul meu şi îi ajut, pentru ca, de 2-3 ani, acolo a crescut şomajul. Ţara aceasta are nevoie de un impuls. Eu cred sincer ca turismul ar putea reprezenta acel impuls. Daca autoritaţile din turism s-ar gândi ca turismul poate reprezenta o industrie mai importanta ca oricare alta, România ar putea avansa. În alte ţari, turismul este prima industrie. În România nu cred ca exista încă aceasta mentalitate. Aveţi o ministra foarte frumoasa, însa, deşi ea sprijina turismul, pe noi ne-a sprijinit întotdeauna, cred ca şi ea urmeaza puţin filozofia miniştrilor pe care i-am cunoscut anterior. Toţi au fost puţin decişi sa ia taurul de coarne. Trebuie înţeles că micile detalii conteaza pentru un turist. Apoi, s-au îmbunataţit condiţiile de cazare, ofertele turistice, serviciile. Ar trebui facute mai multe cursuri de personal, nu pentru a servi mai bine, pentru ca românii au o atitudine corectă, ci pentru a servi într-un mod profesionist. Apoi mai cred ca România e pregatita sa concureze cu ţari precum Ungaria, Bulgaria, inclusiv Franţa. Însa eu aş insista mult pe aspectul pregatirii personalului. Aveţi ghizi foarte buni, iar acesta este un capitol foarte important. În Spania nu exista ghizi atât de buni.
MONICA TARĂU
\r\nALEXANDRU CRĂIUŢ: „Am avut o satisfacţie unică atunci când ni s-a înmânat „Mărul de Aur” !
\r\nLa Moldoviţa a avut loc o întâlnire de gradul Zero. N-au aterizat acolo extratereştrii. Ci în jur de 200 de jurnalişti de turism din aproape 40 de ţări. Un eveniment l-a constituit întâlnirea întâmplătoare a lui Miguel Angel Brera cu Alexandru Crăiuţ. În vârstă de 71 de ani, pensionar azi, Crăiuţ a fost cel care a primit în numele comunei Moldoviţa, primul “Măr de Aur”, acordat în 1975 atracţiilor turistice bucovinene.

- Cum a fost revederea cu Miguel Brera?
- După mai bine de 35 de ani, cuvintele rămân sărace. Sunt emoţionat, dar am o satisfacţie nemaipomenită. Mă leagă multe de aceste meleaguri, de mănăstirea Moldoviţa. În perioada în care am fost primar am primit numeroase capete încoronate ori demnitari politici, de la regina Iuliana a Olandei până la Jacques Chirac, preşedintele Franţei din acea vreme, scriitori, artişti etc. Pe toţi i-am plimbat să le arătăm frumuseţi unice. Am avut şansa de a fi singurul din familia mea care am trecut prin asemenea fericire.
\r\n- De ce este păzit cu străşnicie “Mărul de Aur” de la Mănăstirea Molodoviţa ?
\r\n- Pentru noi este cel mai important trofeu turistic primit de Bucovina şi de către România. Atunci a fost un moment uriaş. Cîţiva jurnalişti de la Asociaţia internaţională FIJET, care atunci era partener al UNESCO, au venit să aleagă un loc unde să fie decernat şi găzduit acesta. Eu, fiind primar am avut obligaţia să organizez în primul rând locaţia, un podium, brazi, un grup mare de tineri îmbrăcaţi în port popular şi am participat efectiv, la manifestarea susţinută de către primul secretar din acea vreme Miu Dobrescu. Era un om de cultură deosebit, e bine sau nu acum, eu tot spun cum au stat treburile atunci. Ţinea foarte mult la protocol. Printre altele a rămas în istorie şi pentru că a fost singurul demnitar despre care presa a scris că a avut convingeri culturale şi nu comuniste. După decernarea “Mărului de Aur” am avut ceva probleme cu miliţia. Trebuia să asigurăm securitatea trofeului. Se vede treaba că era ceva foarte, foarte important. Pe vremea aceea nu existau mijloacele sofisticate de protecţie ca acum, nici camere de luat vederi, nici altele. De aceea am pus la punct o încuietoare cu lacăt şi un grilaj. De atunci, şi asta ne încântă foarte mult, zeci de mii de turişti interni sau străini, trec anual şi-l admiră. Există o plăcere mai mare decât să vezi “Mărul de Aur” şi mănăstirea Moldoviţa? Pentru noi, cu singuranţă nu!

INTERVIU NR. 93-94 (DECEMBRIE 2011- IANUARIE 2012)
\nMIGUEL ANGEL BRERA: „Aş fi fost felicitat daca scriam ca Ceauşescu era o canalie, iar România o porcarie !”
Pentru cine nu ştie România deţine azi patru „Pomme D’Or” (Mărul de aur), recunoscute ca fiind echivalentul premiilor Oscar în turism. Ele sunt decernate periodic de către FIJET. Primul a recompensat Bucovina în 1975 şi e păzit cu străşnicie la Mănăstirea Moldoviţa. Celelalte 3, primite în 2009, au premiat zona Mărginimea Sibiului, Rezervaţia Biosferei „Delta Dunării”, respectiv compania aeriană „Blue Air”. Miguel Angel Brera este o legendă vie. În calitate de jurnalist de turism a fost martorul acestor evenimente, şi chiar cel care a adus primul „Măr de Aur” în România. Spaniol get-beget, a fost o lungă perioadă preşedintele FIJET (Federaţia Internaţională a Jurnaliştilor şi Editorilor de Turism) iar azi e preşedintele de onoare al organizaţiei. Profesor de turism la o universitate din Madrid el a publicat numeroase articole şi reportaje despre ţara noastră. De ce iubeşte România de o viaţă ? Aflaţi din acest interviu.
-Domnule Miguel Brera nu vă aflaţi pentru prima dată în România, nu-i aşa ?
-Nu, acum ma aflu la al 53-lea congres internaţional al jurnaliştilor de turism. La o întâlnire, unul dintre organizatorii români de la Clubul Presei de Turism – FIJET România, a rugat sa ridice mâna cine se afla în România pentru prima data şi cine a fost de mai multe ori. Eu eram cel care a fost în ţara dumneavoastră de cele mai multe ori. Nu am o memorie a cifrelor dar prima dată se întâmpla prin 1958-1960, apoi am revenit în epoca lui Ceauşescu. România era pe atunci o minunaţie şi înca este. Era o ţara vesela, avea - ca şi acum - un peisaj foarte variat, pitoresc, monumental, plin de savoare culturala şi istorica. În acei ani, problema era ca viaţa era puţin clandestina, oamenii trebuiau sa-şi fereasca intimitatea. Cum nu aveau multa încredere în tine, nu ţi se dezvaluiau prea mult. În acea epoca, dupa prima mea calatorie, am fost invitat de Guvernul lui Ceauşescu de mai multe ori. De fapt, de fiecare data când doream sa vin în România, eram invitat. Iar asta se întâmpla cel puţin o data pe an. Atunci când ajungeam, la aeroport ma aştepta o maşina, un şofer şi un ghid.
\n-Era dificil pentru un jurnalist spaniol de turism sa ajunga în România?
\n-Nu, nu era dificil. În general, nu existau probleme. Prima data am venit în interes turistic, cu un grup de turişti spanioli. Nu mă cunoştea nimeni. Existau puţine informaţii despre realitatea politica şi sociala româneasca. Aproape niciuna adevarata şi niciuna importanta. Însa informaţiile turistice erau mai multe şi consistente decât acum. Pentru Spania, România era atunci un loc în care veneam şi despre care existau informaţii minunate. Îmi amintesc un nume: Filipescu. A fost mult timp Ataşat pe Turism al Ambasadei României la Madrid şi a atras atât de multe persoane, încât a umplut România de spanioli. Îmi pare rau că acum spun asta. Dar turismul funcţiona mult mai bine în perioada dictaturii. După Revoluţie am vorbit cu mai mulţi miniştrii de turism, dar ce spun, cu toţi. Discuţiile cu ei mi-au dat impresia ca turismul nu era principala lor preocupare. Cred ca asta a facut ca turismul sa scada.
-Dar în ceea ce priveşte munca de jurnalist, va simţeaţi controlat în perioada Ceauşescu ?\n-Restricţia principala exista în privinţa fotografiilor. Erau locuri în care ghidul îmi spunea ca este interzis fotografiatul. În ceea ce priveşte scrisul, eu veneam din Spania, o ţara în care aveam libertatea de a scrie despre orice alta ţara. Nu puteam scrie despre politica spaniola, pentru ca la putere era Franco, însa puteam scrie despre alte ţari. Aş fi fost inclusiv felicitat daca scriam ca Ceauşescu era o canalie, iar România o porcarie. Asta pentru ca Spania era anticomunista, iar relaţiile cu Ceauşescu nu erau bune. Însa, conform statutului FIJET, nu ne este permis sa intervenim în probleme politice. Ci să scriem numai despre turism. Aici e puterea şi valoarea noastră. Aveam obligaţia de a vorbi despre turism, despre peisaje, despre istorie... Asta e minunat, pentru ca dacă ai talent şi cultură mereu vei descoperi o atracţie despre care merită scris. Puteam sa aduc critici de genul unor observaţii care să conducă la creşterea sau modernizarea actului turistic din ţara dumneavoastră. Eram deseori sunat de la ambasada şi ma felicitau pentru cum am scris despre România. Sigur, erau alte timpuri, când oamenii erau mai atenţi şi preţuiau cum se cuvine munca celor din jur. Oriunde sunt întrebat ce loc din Europa îmi place cel mai mult, mereu spun ca după Spania, prima ţară este România, iar din Americi, mereu spun Guatemala.
- Suntem europeni şi ne-am aliniat la preţurile europene! Cum era înainte de anii 1989, era România o destinaţie ieftină ?
\n-Da, era şi foarte accesibilă. Deşi era ieftin, nu te simţeai în largul tau mai ales în acel ultim deceniu, apăruseră probleme cu mâncarea. Aveaţi hoteluri foarte bune în zona litoralului, pe care le-am revazut dupa mulţi ani căzute în paragina. Da, era ieftin sa vii în România. Şi calatoria cu TAROM-ul era ieftina. Era o companie buna cu preţuri bune. Prima data am venit cu un pachet de 15 zile, foarte ieftin, care includea România, Bulgaria şi Turcia. Cred ca ar trebui sa se reia o asemenea colaborare. Mai ales că acum Turcia are mult succes, iar pentru voi ar fi foarte interesant sa formaţi pachete turistice împreuna. Eu am spus asta miniştrilor, dar...
- În opinia dumneavoastră, ca jurnalist de turism, care era zona cea mai promovata în acea perioadă? \n-Cred ca turiştii se lasau convinşi de ceea ce era mai promovat, iar zonele cele mai promovate erau Marea Neagra şi manastririle din Bucovina. Alte zone dragi mie, cum ar fi Maramureşul, Sapânţa, nu erau cunoscute. Nici zona legata de legenda lui Dracula nu era promovata.
\n-Aveţi o relaţie îndelungată cu România. Cum vi se pare că a evoluat ţara noastra pe parcursul ultimelor două decenii ?
\n- În regimul anterior aveaţi o ţara de oameni minunaţi şi veseli, dar întristaţi din cauza clandestinitaţii vieţii şi a problemelor cu care se confruntau. Apoi a venit democraţia, care a adus multa bucurie ţarii, a adus libertate. Înainte nu existau atâtea terase, cafenele, restaurante... Toate acestea au aparut odata cu democraţia, însa au aparut lent. Evoluţia nu a fost imediata, ci lenta. Din punct de vedere economic, exista progres, însa nu atât cât ar fi trebuit. De aceea mulţi români emigreaza. Situaţia românilor din Spania nu este atât de buna pe cât au crezut ei, pentru ca acum Spania nu se afla într-o situaţie economica buna. Am români în jurul meu şi îi ajut, pentru ca, de 2-3 ani, acolo a crescut şomajul. Ţara aceasta are nevoie de un impuls. Eu cred sincer ca turismul ar putea reprezenta acel impuls. Daca autoritaţile din turism s-ar gândi ca turismul poate reprezenta o industrie mai importanta ca oricare alta, România ar putea avansa. În alte ţari, turismul este prima industrie. În România nu cred ca exista încă aceasta mentalitate. Aveţi o ministra foarte frumoasa, însa, deşi ea sprijina turismul, pe noi ne-a sprijinit întotdeauna, cred ca şi ea urmeaza puţin filozofia miniştrilor pe care i-am cunoscut anterior. Toţi au fost puţin decişi sa ia taurul de coarne. Trebuie înţeles că micile detalii conteaza pentru un turist. Apoi, s-au îmbunataţit condiţiile de cazare, ofertele turistice, serviciile. Ar trebui facute mai multe cursuri de personal, nu pentru a servi mai bine, pentru ca românii au o atitudine corectă, ci pentru a servi într-un mod profesionist. Apoi mai cred ca România e pregatita sa concureze cu ţari precum Ungaria, Bulgaria, inclusiv Franţa. Însa eu aş insista mult pe aspectul pregatirii personalului. Aveţi ghizi foarte buni, iar acesta este un capitol foarte important. În Spania nu exista ghizi atât de buni.
MONICA TARĂU
\nALEXANDRU CRĂIUŢ: „Am avut o satisfacţie unică atunci când ni s-a înmânat „Mărul de Aur” !
\nLa Moldoviţa a avut loc o întâlnire de gradul Zero. N-au aterizat acolo extratereştrii. Ci în jur de 200 de jurnalişti de turism din aproape 40 de ţări. Un eveniment l-a constituit întâlnirea întâmplătoare a lui Miguel Angel Brera cu Alexandru Crăiuţ. În vârstă de 71 de ani, pensionar azi, Crăiuţ a fost cel care a primit în numele comunei Moldoviţa, primul “Măr de Aur”, acordat în 1975 atracţiilor turistice bucovinene.
\n- Cum a fost revederea cu Miguel Brera?
\n- După mai bine de 35 de ani, cuvintele rămân sărace. Sunt emoţionat, dar am o satisfacţie nemaipomenită. Mă leagă multe de aceste meleaguri, de mănăstirea Moldoviţa. În perioada în care am fost primar am primit numeroase capete încoronate ori demnitari politici, de la regina Iuliana a Olandei până la Jacques Chirac, preşedintele Franţei din acea vreme, scriitori, artişti etc. Pe toţi i-am plimbat să le arătăm frumuseţi unice. Am avut şansa de a fi singurul din familia mea care am trecut prin asemenea fericire.
\n- De ce este păzit cu străşnicie “Mărul de Aur” de la Mănăstirea Molodoviţa ?

SUA – Cu braţele deschise

America este o mare destinaţie turistică dar în ultimii ani a pierdut clienţi! Orice călător visează la o vacanţă undeva în State, dar nu are o imagine clară a complexităţii destinaţiilor oferite! Discutând de-a lungul ultimilor ani aceste aspecte, specialiştii americani au hotărât că Statele Unite au nevoie de o campanie de marketing turistic. Au constatat că, pentru prima dată în istorie, SUA are nevoie de un brand. Aşa a apărut Brand USA, un grup strategic de lucru, cunoscut iniţial sub denumirea de Corporation for Travel Promotion, care a produs şi va avea grijă de brandul global adresat consumatorilor.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/brand-USA.jpg\" "\\"brand")

Luna aceasta a fost anunţat noul brand al Republicii Maldive. Sub sloganul “Always natural” imaginea creată de către specialiştii în comunicare este cea a unei destinaţii care îşi bazează creşterea, viitorul şi dezvoltarea pe natură şi produse cât mai naturale.

Europa continuă să fie o destinaţie atractivă pentru turişti americani. De ce vin aceştia pe vechiul continent şi care sunt ratele lor de aşteptare au încercat să afle specialiştii de la TripAdvisor.\r\nConform unui studiu anual de călătorii în Europa - la care au participat 1.200 de persoane -, 60% dintre turişti plănuiesc să sosească aici în viitoarele 12 luni. Aceasta marchează o creştere a interesului cu circa 10% în comparaţie cu anul 2009. 54% din cei intervievaţi au declarat că intenţionează să călătorească în perioada septembrie-octombrie şi doar 38% că vor vizita Europa în perioada mai-iunie.\r\n\r\nCele mai căutate destinaţii sunt Londra, Paris, Roma, Barcelona şi Madrid, iar oraşele care înregistrează creşteri sunt Istanbul, Zurich, Sevilla, Atena şi Copenhaga. Un punct forte al europenilor îl constituie gastronomia, 58% dintre respondenţi apreciind că bucătăria vechiului continent este mai bună. Despre transportul public european, 90% din turiştii americani au spus că este superior celui american.\r\n\r\nÎn privinţa serviciilor, 30% consideră că sunt mai proaste în Europa. Referindu-se la atracţiile turistice, 57% dintre călători au subliniat că în Europa sunt mult mai multe lucruri de vizitat. În ceea ce priveşte standardele de cazare 36% dintre intervievaţi consideră că hotelurile prezintă în Europa un nivel inferior, comparativ cu cele din Statele Unite.\r\nGrupaj de SÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n\r\n

Americanii s-au asigurat cel puţin un sezon că au cel mai mare hotel din lume: Venetian din Las Vegas. Renovarea acestuia s-a încheiat recent. Cu cele 7.000 de camere el deţine supremaţia mondială, surclasând hotelul Asia Asia, cu 6.500 de camere din Dubailand. Venetian operează cu două dintre cele mai renumite francize de restaurante din lume şi oferă peste 50 de restaurante, baruri, cafenele, săli de evenimente şi un teatru. În acelaşi timp singaporezii au detronat Emirates Palace Hotel din Abu Dhabi, din topului celor mai scumpe hoteluri. Ei au inaugurat anul trecut Marina Bay Sands Hotel. Acesta a presupus o investiţie de aproape 6 miliarde de dolari. Preţul celei mai ieftine camere (din cele 2.500) porneşte de la 520 de dolari şi trece de 15.000 de dolari pentru un apartament, pe noapte. Printre principalele atracţii ale hotelului se numără piscina de la etajul 55, lungă de 200 metri, considerată a fi cea mai mare piscină descoperită din lume aflată la această înălţime. Circa 10.000 de angajaţi asigură serviciile oferite de hotel.

\r\n
@ NIMIC DESPRE... TORTUL DE NUNTĂ RUSESC. Pregătirile pentru eveniment au început de mult timp, fiind vizibile pentru cei care au vizitat în cursul acestui an capitala Poloniei. Un banner imens care anunţă evenimentul sportiv se află pe o clădire-simbol a Varşoviei din perioada comunistă, Palatul Culturii şi Ştiinţei. Copie, ca şi Casa Presei din Bucureşti, a Universităţii de stat din Moscova, clădirea a fost ridicată între 1952 - 1955, fiind un dar din partea Uniunii Sovietice. Cu 231 de metri, 3288 de camere şi 42 de etaje, rămâne cea mai înaltă construcţie din Polonia şi a 8-a în topul celor mai înalte din Uniunea Europeană. De la ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Polonia00231.jpg\" "\\"Polonia0023\\"")
terasa etajului 30 a clădirii care îndeplineşte rolul de centru de expoziţii, spaţii de birouri şi centru cultural, având muzee, cinematografe, teatre şi săli de concerte, ba chiar şi o universitate, se poate admira o panoramă unică a Varşoviei. Polonezii au urât-o pentru că o considerau un simbol al dominaţiei sovietice. Clădirea a fost botezată „Pekin” cu referire la capitala Chinei, de la acronimul PkiN (Palac Kultury I Nauki), dar i s-a mai spus „seringa lui Stalin” sau “tortul de nuntă rusesc”.
![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Polonia00581.jpg\" "\\"Polonia0058\\"")
@ SUS INIMILE CU... CHOPIN. Dacă aţi ajuns în această zonă rezervaţi-vă trei, patru ore pentru a vizita centrul istoric al capitalei Poloniei. Într-un sfert de oră puteţi ajunge pe „Krakowskie Przedmiescie”, strada care ne duce spre centrul istoric al Varşoviei, căreia i se spune şi „Drumul Regal”. Dacă ai la îndemână o hartă a capitalei, este imposibil să te rătăceşti. În faţa clădirii Academiei de Ştiinţe a Poloniei, se poate observa statuia astronomului şi matematicianului Nicolaus Copernicus 1473-1543), cel care susţinea că soarele este în centrul Universului şi că Pământul se roteşte în jurul lui. Pe pavajul din jurul statuii sunt trasate orbitele planetelor din sistemul nostru solar. Nu le-am putut admira în ansamblu pentru că tocmai atunci o orchestră alcătuită din tineri, studenţi la conservator, se pregăteau de un concert. Nu am avut niciun regret ascultându-i!\r\nDe fapt, muzica clasică şi spiritul lui Frederic Chopin se simt peste tot. La mică distanţă de statuia lui Copernic se află Biserica Sfintei Cruci, unde este depusă inima celebrului compozitor polonez. Pe frontispiciul din faţa bisericii întâlnim inscripţia „SVRSVM CORDA” (Sus inimile), un pasaj din liturghia catolică, la care credincioşii răspund „Habemus ad Dominum” (Le avem la Domnul). Acesta este un fapt care evidenţiază locul special în care a fost depusă inima marelui muzician înmormântat la Paris. Dacă mergeţi pe strada ce duce spre centrul istoric, să nu credeţi că doar vi se pare că auziţi muzica lui Chopin. Băncile aflate pe această stradă au nu numai rolul de a vă informa unde vă aflaţi şi ce obiective sunt în jur. Ele încorporează boxe care difuzează discret acorduri din creaţiile lui Chopin.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Polonia00901.jpg\" "\\"Polonia0090\\"")

@ SĂ DAI MÂNA CU O STATUIE. Pe aceeaşi parte cu Biserica Sfintei Cruci, e amplasat Palatul Czapski care adăposteşte astăzi Academia de Arte Frumoase, o clădire unde Chopin şi-a petrecut ultimii ani înainte de a pleca din Polonia şi de a se stabili în Franţa. Pe partea opusă se află poarta de intrare în Universitatea din Varşovia, cu clădiri frumoase, cu spaţii largi şi cu o statuie aflată pe o bancă, cu mâna dreaptă întinsă şi uşor tocită. Este în această stare de la multe generaţii de studenţi ce au dat mână cu... statuia. Superstiţia spune că e bine să faci acest lucru pentru că vei avea şanse mai mari la examene. Cine a fost student înţelege rostul unei mâini întinse înainte de întâlnirea cu profesorii încruntaţi.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Polonia0173.jpg\" "\\"Polonia0173\\"")
@ SE PUTEA FĂRĂ MARLENE DIETRICH ! Mergem pe „Drumul Regal” şi ne oprim pentru a admira arhitectura Art Nouveau a hotelului Le Meridien Bristol, inaugurat în noiembrie 1901 şi considerat cel mai bun hotel din Varşovia, poate chiar din Polonia. Are o istorie tumultoasă, care se împleteşte cu cea a Varşoviei. Aici au stat compozitorii Edward Grieg şi Richard Strauss, au înnoptat Pablo Picasso, Artur Rubinstein, Marlene Dietrich. În timpul Insurecţiei poloneze din vara anului 1944, din ordinul lui Hitler, hotelul trebuia pus la pământ aşa cum s-a întâmplat cu aproape toate clădirile din centrul istoric, însă, în mod norocos, a rămas în picioare. Reparat după război, în 1952 a fost preluat de Orbis, Agenţia turistică de stat şi a devenit un loc destinat în exclusivitate turiştilor străini. În timp s-a degradat, iar în 1981 chiar a fost închis, pentru ca peste doar 10 ani să ajungă o ruină. Renovat, în aprilie 1993 hotelul a fost redeschis oficial, aici fiind cazaţi şefii de stat şi de guverne aflaţi în vizită în Polonia, dar şi alte personalităţi. În apartamentul prezidenţial de astăzi a locuit Ignac Paderewski, pianistul genial care a devenit şi primul premier al Poloniei de după primul război mondial. Aici au stat locuit şi Jacques Chirac, Helmut Kohl, Richard Nixon, Regina Elisabeta a II-a sau George Bush, nu întâmplător deoarece clădirea vecină, Palatul Radziwill, este sediul Preşedinţiei Poloniei. Chiar dacă nu am fost un oaspete de înalt nivel, am fost bine tratat la „Bristol” unde, imediat ce m-am prezentat la recepţie pentru formalităţile de cazare, am primit un plic consistent cu ghiduri şi hărţi ale Varşoviei şi împrejurimilor. Să te tot documentezi şi orientezi printre atracţiile turistice.
\r\n@ LOCUL UNDE PESCARII AU LĂSAT SIRENA. Mai sunt multe clădirile importante pe „Drumul Regal”. Vă lăsăm plăcerea să le descoperiţi singuri până a ajunge în Piaţa Zamkowy, unde se află columna regelui Zygmunt al III-lea Waza, rege al Poloniei şi Mare Duce al Lituaniei între 1587 şi 1632, dar şi rege al Suediei. Aici se află Castelul regal, reşedinţa regilor Poloniei începând din 1596, ca urmare a deciziei regelui Zygmunt al II-lea de a muta aici capitala după incendiul reşedinţei din Cracovia. Oraşul vechi şi acest castel distrus în al doilea război mondial şi reconstruit în 1971 sunt incluse, începând din 1980, în patrimoniul cultural mondial UNESCO. Castelul regal este amenajat ca muzeu de artă, dar tinde să devină un spaţiu pentru concerte de muzică de cameră. Tot în Piaţa Zamkowy, kilometrul zero al Varşoviei, este un punct de belvedere de unde puteţi admira silueta stadionului care, în iunie 2012, va găzdui una dintre semifinalele lui Euro 2012. În perioada verii, un minicar vă poate purta prin centrul vechi într-un tur de jumătate de oră. Străbătând străzile înguste din centrul istoric, ajungeţi în piaţa unde se află „Sirena” - simbolul oraşului Varşovia. Există multe locuri cu încărcătură istorică şi multe legende, însă cea despre Sirena din Varşovia mi se pare importantă.Potrivit legendei, o sirenă care înota în mare s-a oprit pe malul Vistulei, lângă oraşul vechi, ca să se odihnească. I-a plăcut locul şi s-a hotărât să rămână aici. Pescari au observat ceva care le încurca plasele de pescuit şi elibera peştii prinşi. Deşi intenţia lor iniţială a fost de a o prinde, pescarii s-au îndrăgostit de ea şi de muzica pe care o cânta. Mai târziu, un negustor bogat a reuşit să prindă sirena şi să o închidă într-o colibă de lemn. Auzind plânsul sirenei, un tânăr pescar a eliberat-o. Atunci sirena le-a promis pescarilor că-i va ajuta şi-i va ocroti ori de câte ori vor avea nevoie. De atunci, sirena, înarmată cu sabie şi scut e gata să apere Varşovia atât de greu încercată şi pe locuitorii săi.\r\nDe reţinut: toate clădirile din centrul vechi sunt refăcute. Aici sunt o mulţime de magazine cu suveniruri, dar vă puteţi orienta şi spre specialităţi precum turta dulce trasă în ciocolată sau prune trase în ciocolată. Polonezii au tradiţie în fabricarea de dulciuri, iar o dovadă este clădirea fabricii de ciocolată, care a funcţionat începând de la mijlocul secolului al 19-lea. Dacă aţi obosit după acest tur de oraş, vă puteţi aşeza la o terasă pentru o cafea sau o bere. Zlotul are aceeaşi paritate cu leul, doar că preţurile sunt puţin mai mari. O halbă de bere vă poate costa, de exemplu, 9 zloţi, însă în locul în care am intrat, şi pentru a mânca ceva, începând cu a doua bere plăteai doar 7 zloţi. O idee bună, un truc turistic care umple localul în fiecare zi!

UNESCO – de la arheologie la fotbal
\r\nSuntem obişnuiţi să găsim simbolul patrimoniului UNESCO afişat pe clădiri, la intrarea în situri arheologice sau alături de descrierea unor obective turistice, în ghiduri şi chiar pe tricourile echipelor de fotbal. A devenit o marcă, un garant al calităţii. Organizaţia selectează însă, anual, şi minuni naturale ale globului. Anul trecut a adus în atenţia publicului 8 destinaţii pentru aventură, din Tanzania, China, Rusia ori Pacific.\r\n\r\nÎn peşterile preistorice ale lui Yagul şi Mitla (Oaxaca, la 550 km de Mexico City), sunt picturi rupestre, dar s-au găsit seminţe de cucurbitacee, vechi de peste 10.000 de ani. Regiunea Danxia din China are particularitatea de a afişa un peisaj selenar, colorat în zeci de nuanţe. Insulele Phoenix reprezintă cea mai mare regiune marină protejată din lume (10.000 km NV de Insulele Fiji din Pacificul de Sud). Insulele Reunion (Oceanul Indian) oferă peisajul conurilor vulcanice iar zona Papahanaumokuakea (NV de Hawaii) adaposteşte recifuri de corali cu specii rare de vieţuitoare marine.\r\n\r\nDacă vreţi mai mult de atât puteţi încerca Zona de conservare Ngorongoro din Tanzania. Inclusă în patrimoniul UNESCO în 1979 - este considerată locul în care au fost descoperiţi pentru prima dată stramoşii omului. Lista se încheie cu Rezervaţia Naturala de Stat Putoransky din Rusia (100 km Nord de Cercul Arctic) şi Podişurile Centrale din Sri Lanka, regiuni ce adăpostesc animale pe cale de dispariţie. În ultimii 28 de ani UNESCO a identificat în jur de 180 de minuni naturale ale lumii, în 77 de ţări.','SUA cu bratele deschise','','publish','open','open','','sua-cu-bratele-deschise','','','2012-01-06 10:37:49','2012-01-06 08:37:49','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=918',0,'post','',0),(919,1,'2012-01-06 09:49:22','2012-01-06 07:49:22','','Brand USA 2','','inherit','open','open','','brand-usa-2','','','2012-01-06 09:49:22','2012-01-06 07:49:22','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Brand-USA-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(920,1,'2012-01-06 09:49:49','2012-01-06 07:49:49','','Louvre1','','inherit','open','open','','louvre1','','','2012-01-06 09:49:49','2012-01-06 07:49:49','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Louvre1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(921,1,'2012-01-06 09:50:10','2012-01-06 07:50:10','','maldive 3','','inherit','open','open','','maldive-3','','','2012-01-06 09:50:10','2012-01-06 07:50:10','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/maldive-3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(922,1,'2012-01-06 09:50:25','2012-01-06 07:50:25','','Tripadvisor 1','','inherit','open','open','','tripadvisor-1','','','2012-01-06 09:50:25','2012-01-06 07:50:25','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Tripadvisor-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(923,1,'2012-01-06 09:50:44','2012-01-06 07:50:44','','Cele mai tari hoteluri 1','','inherit','open','open','','cele-mai-tari-hoteluri-1','','','2012-01-06 09:50:44','2012-01-06 07:50:44','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Cele-mai-tari-hoteluri-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(924,1,'2012-01-06 09:51:10','2012-01-06 07:51:10','','Polonia0022','','inherit','open','open','','polonia0022','','','2012-01-06 09:51:10','2012-01-06 07:51:10','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Polonia0022.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(925,1,'2012-01-06 09:51:13','2012-01-06 07:51:13','','Polonia0023','','inherit','open','open','','polonia0023','','','2012-01-06 09:51:13','2012-01-06 07:51:13','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Polonia0023.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(926,1,'2012-01-06 09:51:16','2012-01-06 07:51:16','','Polonia0058','','inherit','open','open','','polonia0058','','','2012-01-06 09:51:16','2012-01-06 07:51:16','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Polonia0058.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(927,1,'2012-01-06 09:51:19','2012-01-06 07:51:19','','Polonia0069','','inherit','open','open','','polonia0069','','','2012-01-06 09:51:19','2012-01-06 07:51:19','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Polonia0069.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(928,1,'2012-01-06 09:51:22','2012-01-06 07:51:22','','Polonia0090','','inherit','open','open','','polonia0090','','','2012-01-06 09:51:22','2012-01-06 07:51:22','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Polonia0090.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(929,1,'2012-01-06 09:51:25','2012-01-06 07:51:25','','Polonia0108','','inherit','open','open','','polonia0108','','','2012-01-06 09:51:25','2012-01-06 07:51:25','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Polonia0108.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(930,1,'2012-01-06 09:49:59','2012-01-06 07:49:59','SUA – Cu braţele deschise
\nAmerica este o mare destinaţie turistică dar în ultimii ani a pierdut clienţi! Orice călător visează la o vacanţă undeva în State, dar nu are o imagine clară a complexităţii destinaţiilor oferite! Discutând de-a lungul ultimilor ani aceste aspecte, specialiştii americani au hotărât că Statele Unite au nevoie de o campanie de marketing turistic. Au constatat că, pentru prima dată în istorie, SUA are nevoie de un brand. Aşa a apărut Brand USA, un grup strategic de lucru, cunoscut iniţial sub denumirea de Corporation for Travel Promotion, care a produs şi va avea grijă de brandul global adresat consumatorilor.\n\nLogo-ul Brand USA este format din buline verzi şi “vrea să reamintească lumii de Statele Unite ale unor posibilităţi extraordinare, care aşteaptă cu braţele deschise pe toată lumea” – după cum a explicat Jim Evans, ofiţer executiv al Brand USA. Specialiştii au ajuns la concluzia că, deşi în ultimii 10 ani piaţa mondială de turism a crescut, piaţa americană a rămas la acelaşi nivel la capaitolul sosiri turistice. Strategia de brand a fost anunţată la Las Vegas, iar în Europa, în cadrul World Travel Market de la Londra. Campania va începe în primăvara lui 2012. Bugetul anual alocat activităţilor de marketing se ridică la 200 de milioane dolari.

LOUVRE HOTELS – în pas de defilare spre pieţele ţintă
\nDupă unirea Louvre Hotels cu Golden Tulip în aprilie 2011, specialiştii noului grup hotelier Louvre plănuiesc o campanie de noutăţi, demnă de o strategie militară: cucerirea pieţelor din Europa Centrală şi de Est.\n\nÎn anul 2011 grupul a deschis 42 de noi hoteluri cu o capacitate totală de peste 4.000 de camere şi doreşte să crească gradual numărul inaugurărilor până la 100 de noi unităţi pe an în 2016! Pieţele ţintă sunt reprezentate de zone mai puţin frecventate din estul european: Polonia are 10 noi hoteluri; Ucraina atrage investiţiile companiei către două oraşe iar Serbia poate avea primul hotel de brand în 2013. Louvre este unul dintre cele mai mari jucători la nivel mondial: peste 1.000 de unităţi în 40 de ţări, de la 1 la 5 stele. Se clasează pe locul 10 în lume şi pe locul 2 în Europa. Grupul operează şase branduri diferite: Première Classe, Campanile, Kyriad, Tulip Inn, Golden Tulip şi Royal Tulip. În Europa de Est deţine 20 de unităţi, din care 10 numai în Polonia. Hotelurile din grupul Louvre sunt deja o prezenţă cunoscută în ţări precum Franţa, Olanda, Belgia sau Italia. România deţine cinci hoteluri Golden Tulip şi Tulip Inn.

MALDIVE – Caracterul minunat al oamenilor\n\nLuna aceasta a fost anunţat noul brand al Republicii Maldive. Sub sloganul “Always natural” imaginea creată de către specialiştii în comunicare este cea a unei destinaţii care îşi bazează creşterea, viitorul şi dezvoltarea pe natură şi produse cât mai naturale. Noul brand înglobează toate domeniile, nu numai turismul, iar emblema sa este o amprentă în nuanţe de verde, formată din siluete de animale.\"\n\nAtât sloganul cât şi logo-ul au fost create în aşa fel încât să sublinieze extraordinara frumuseţe a naturii din Maldive, frumuseţe pe care toate tipurile de turişti o consideră principalul motiv pentru a ne vizita ţara\" – a spus Thoyyib Mohamed, ministru al turismului, artelor şi culturii. David Keen, preşedintele companiei QUO Keen, creatoarea brandului, a subliniat că “am creat un brand care vorbeşte atât despre caracterul minunat al oamenilor din Maldive dar şi despre eforturile continue pentru o dezvoltare susţinută în toate industriile.”

Ce spune TripAdvisor ? \n\nEuropa continuă să fie o destinaţie atractivă pentru turişti americani. De ce vin aceştia pe vechiul continent şi care sunt ratele lor de aşteptare au încercat să afle specialiştii de la TripAdvisor.\nConform unui studiu anual de călătorii în Europa - la care au participat 1.200 de persoane -, 60% dintre turişti plănuiesc să sosească aici în viitoarele 12 luni. Aceasta marchează o creştere a interesului cu circa 10% în comparaţie cu anul 2009. 54% din cei intervievaţi au declarat că intenţionează să călătorească în perioada septembrie-octombrie şi doar 38% că vor vizita Europa în perioada mai-iunie.\n\nCele mai căutate destinaţii sunt Londra, Paris, Roma, Barcelona şi Madrid, iar oraşele care înregistrează creşteri sunt Istanbul, Zurich, Sevilla, Atena şi Copenhaga. Un punct forte al europenilor îl constituie gastronomia, 58% dintre respondenţi apreciind că bucătăria vechiului continent este mai bună. Despre transportul public european, 90% din turiştii americani au spus că este superior celui american.\n\nÎn privinţa serviciilor, 30% consideră că sunt mai proaste în Europa. Referindu-se la atracţiile turistice, 57% dintre călători au subliniat că în Europa sunt mult mai multe lucruri de vizitat. În ceea ce priveşte standardele de cazare 36% dintre intervievaţi consideră că hotelurile prezintă în Europa un nivel inferior, comparativ cu cele din Statele Unite.\nGrupaj de SÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU

Cele mai tari hoteluri\n\nAmericanii s-au asigurat cel puţin un sezon că au cel mai mare hotel din lume: Venetian din Las Vegas. Renovarea acestuia s-a încheiat recent. Cu cele 7.000 de camere el deţine supremaţia mondială, surclasând hotelul Asia Asia, cu 6.500 de camere din Dubailand. Venetian operează cu două dintre cele mai renumite francize de restaurante din lume şi oferă peste 50 de restaurante, baruri, cafenele, săli de evenimente şi un teatru. În acelaşi timp singaporezii au detronat Emirates Palace Hotel din Abu Dhabi, din topului celor mai scumpe hoteluri. Ei au inaugurat anul trecut Marina Bay Sands Hotel. Acesta a presupus o investiţie de aproape 6 miliarde de dolari. Preţul celei mai ieftine camere (din cele 2.500) porneşte de la 520 de dolari şi trece de 15.000 de dolari pentru un apartament, pe noapte. Printre principalele atracţii ale hotelului se numără piscina de la etajul 55, lungă de 200 metri, considerată a fi cea mai mare piscină descoperită din lume aflată la această înălţime. Circa 10.000 de angajaţi asigură serviciile oferite de hotel.\n\nLa rândul lor asiaticii se bat pentru cel mai înalt hotel din lume. Hong Kong a anunţat că va deschide un asemenea complex. Dar specialiştii din Shanghai au anunţat că performanţa va fi depăşită cu un hotel ce urmează să fie inaugurat în 2014. Shanghai Tower J-Hotel va fi cea mai înaltă clădire din China, a doua cea mai înaltă din lume şi, în acelaşi timp, cel mai înalt hotel din lume. Clădirea va avea 121 de etaje, cu 258 de camere, iar înălţimea se va situa la aproximativ 632 de metri. Brandul e proprietate a grupului hotelier Jin Jiang iar proiectul va fi dezvoltat de către Interstate Hotels & Resorts Company Limited.

VARŞOVIA - un posibil vis fotbalistic de vară
\nÎn iunie anul viitor, Polonia şi Ucraina vor găzdui turneul final al Campionatului European de Fotbal, care va atrage şi spectatori din România. Pentru cei care vor ajunge la EURO 2012, dar nu numai pentru ei, vă sugerăm o posibilă destinaţie de vacanţă – Varşovia.
\n\n
@ NIMIC DESPRE... TORTUL DE NUNTĂ RUSESC. Pregătirile pentru eveniment au început de mult timp, fiind vizibile pentru cei care au vizitat în cursul acestui an capitala Poloniei. Un banner imens care anunţă evenimentul sportiv se află pe o clădire-simbol a Varşoviei din perioada comunistă, Palatul Culturii şi Ştiinţei. Copie, ca şi Casa Presei din Bucureşti, a Universităţii de stat din Moscova, clădirea a fost ridicată între 1952 - 1955, fiind un dar din partea Uniunii Sovietice. Cu 231 de metri, 3288 de camere şi 42 de etaje, rămâne cea mai înaltă construcţie din Polonia şi a 8-a în topul celor mai înalte din Uniunea Europeană. De la terasa etajului 30 a clădirii care îndeplineşte rolul de centru de expoziţii, spaţii de birouri şi centru cultural, având muzee, cinematografe, teatre şi săli de concerte, ba chiar şi o universitate, se poate admira o panoramă unică a Varşoviei. Polonezii au urât-o pentru că o considerau un simbol al dominaţiei sovietice. Clădirea a fost botezată „Pekin” cu referire la capitala Chinei, de la acronimul PkiN (Palac Kultury I Nauki), dar i s-a mai spus „seringa lui Stalin” sau “tortul de nuntă rusesc”.
\n@ SUS INIMILE CU... CHOPIN. Dacă aţi ajuns în această zonă rezervaţi-vă trei, patru ore pentru a vizita centrul istoric al capitalei Poloniei. Într-un sfert de oră puteţi ajunge pe „Krakowskie Przedmiescie”, strada care ne duce spre centrul istoric al Varşoviei, căreia i se spune şi „Drumul Regal”. Dacă ai la îndemână o hartă a capitalei, este imposibil să te rătăceşti. În faţa clădirii Academiei de Ştiinţe a Poloniei, se poate observa statuia astronomului şi matematicianului Nicolaus Copernicus 1473-1543), cel care susţinea că soarele este în centrul Universului şi că Pământul se roteşte în jurul lui. Pe pavajul din jurul statuii sunt trasate orbitele planetelor din sistemul nostru solar. Nu le-am putut admira în ansamblu pentru că tocmai atunci o orchestră alcătuită din tineri, studenţi la conservator, se pregăteau de un concert. Nu am avut niciun regret ascultându-i!\nDe fapt, muzica clasică şi spiritul lui Frederic Chopin se simt peste tot. La mică distanţă de statuia lui Copernic se află Biserica Sfintei Cruci, unde este depusă inima celebrului compozitor polonez. Pe frontispiciul din faţa bisericii întâlnim inscripţia „SVRSVM CORDA” (Sus inimile), un pasaj din liturghia catolică, la care credincioşii răspund „Habemus ad Dominum” (Le avem la Domnul). Acesta este un fapt care evidenţiază locul special în care a fost depusă inima marelui muzician înmormântat la Paris. Dacă mergeţi pe strada ce duce spre centrul istoric, să nu credeţi că doar vi se pare că auziţi muzica lui Chopin. Băncile aflate pe această stradă au nu numai rolul de a vă informa unde vă aflaţi şi ce obiective sunt în jur. Ele încorporează boxe care difuzează discret acorduri din creaţiile lui Chopin.
\n@ SĂ DAI MÂNA CU O STATUIE. Pe aceeaşi parte cu Biserica Sfintei Cruci, e amplasat Palatul Czapski care adăposteşte astăzi Academia de Arte Frumoase, o clădire unde Chopin şi-a petrecut ultimii ani înainte de a pleca din Polonia şi de a se stabili în Franţa. Pe partea opusă se află poarta de intrare în Universitatea din Varşovia, cu clădiri frumoase, cu spaţii largi şi cu o statuie aflată pe o bancă, cu mâna dreaptă întinsă şi uşor tocită. Este în această stare de la multe generaţii de studenţi ce au dat mână cu... statuia. Superstiţia spune că e bine să faci acest lucru pentru că vei avea şanse mai mari la examene. Cine a fost student înţelege rostul unei mâini întinse înainte de întâlnirea cu profesorii încruntaţi.
\n@ SE PUTEA FĂRĂ MARLENE DIETRICH ! Mergem pe „Drumul Regal” şi ne oprim pentru a admira arhitectura Art Nouveau a hotelului Le Meridien Bristol, inaugurat în noiembrie 1901 şi considerat cel mai bun hotel din Varşovia, poate chiar din Polonia. Are o istorie tumultoasă, care se împleteşte cu cea a Varşoviei. Aici au stat compozitorii Edward Grieg şi Richard Strauss, au înnoptat Pablo Picasso, Artur Rubinstein, Marlene Dietrich. În timpul Insurecţiei poloneze din vara anului 1944, din ordinul lui Hitler, hotelul trebuia pus la pământ aşa cum s-a întâmplat cu aproape toate clădirile din centrul istoric, însă, în mod norocos, a rămas în picioare. Reparat după război, în 1952 a fost preluat de Orbis, Agenţia turistică de stat şi a devenit un loc destinat în exclusivitate turiştilor străini. În timp s-a degradat, iar în 1981 chiar a fost închis, pentru ca peste doar 10 ani să ajungă o ruină. Renovat, în aprilie 1993 hotelul a fost redeschis oficial, aici fiind cazaţi şefii de stat şi de guverne aflaţi în vizită în Polonia, dar şi alte personalităţi. În apartamentul prezidenţial de astăzi a locuit Ignac Paderewski, pianistul genial care a devenit şi primul premier al Poloniei de după primul război mondial. Aici au stat locuit şi Jacques Chirac, Helmut Kohl, Richard Nixon, Regina Elisabeta a II-a sau George Bush, nu întâmplător deoarece clădirea vecină, Palatul Radziwill, este sediul Preşedinţiei Poloniei. Chiar dacă nu am fost un oaspete de înalt nivel, am fost bine tratat la „Bristol” unde, imediat ce m-am prezentat la recepţie pentru formalităţile de cazare, am primit un plic consistent cu ghiduri şi hărţi ale Varşoviei şi împrejurimilor. Să te tot documentezi şi orientezi printre atracţiile turistice.
\n@ LOCUL UNDE PESCARII AU LĂSAT SIRENA. Mai sunt multe clădirile importante pe „Drumul Regal”. Vă lăsăm plăcerea să le descoperiţi singuri până a ajunge în Piaţa Zamkowy, unde se află columna regelui Zygmunt al III-lea Waza, rege al Poloniei şi Mare Duce al Lituaniei între 1587 şi 1632, dar şi rege al Suediei. Aici se află Castelul regal, reşedinţa regilor Poloniei începând din 1596, ca urmare a deciziei regelui Zygmunt al II-lea de a muta aici capitala după incendiul reşedinţei din Cracovia. Oraşul vechi şi acest castel distrus în al doilea război mondial şi reconstruit în 1971 sunt incluse, începând din 1980, în patrimoniul cultural mondial UNESCO. Castelul regal este amenajat ca muzeu de artă, dar tinde să devină un spaţiu pentru concerte de muzică de cameră. Tot în Piaţa Zamkowy, kilometrul zero al Varşoviei, este un punct de belvedere de unde puteţi admira silueta stadionului care, în iunie 2012, va găzdui una dintre semifinalele lui Euro 2012. În perioada verii, un minicar vă poate purta prin centrul vechi într-un tur de jumătate de oră. Străbătând străzile înguste din centrul istoric, ajungeţi în piaţa unde se află „Sirena” - simbolul oraşului Varşovia. Există multe locuri cu încărcătură istorică şi multe legende, însă cea despre Sirena din Varşovia mi se pare importantă.Potrivit legendei, o sirenă care înota în mare s-a oprit pe malul Vistulei, lângă oraşul vechi, ca să se odihnească. I-a plăcut locul şi s-a hotărât să rămână aici. Pescari au observat ceva care le încurca plasele de pescuit şi elibera peştii prinşi. Deşi intenţia lor iniţială a fost de a o prinde, pescarii s-au îndrăgostit de ea şi de muzica pe care o cânta. Mai târziu, un negustor bogat a reuşit să prindă sirena şi să o închidă într-o colibă de lemn. Auzind plânsul sirenei, un tânăr pescar a eliberat-o. Atunci sirena le-a promis pescarilor că-i va ajuta şi-i va ocroti ori de câte ori vor avea nevoie. De atunci, sirena, înarmată cu sabie şi scut e gata să apere Varşovia atât de greu încercată şi pe locuitorii săi.\nDe reţinut: toate clădirile din centrul vechi sunt refăcute. Aici sunt o mulţime de magazine cu suveniruri, dar vă puteţi orienta şi spre specialităţi precum turta dulce trasă în ciocolată sau prune trase în ciocolată. Polonezii au tradiţie în fabricarea de dulciuri, iar o dovadă este clădirea fabricii de ciocolată, care a funcţionat începând de la mijlocul secolului al 19-lea. Dacă aţi obosit după acest tur de oraş, vă puteţi aşeza la o terasă pentru o cafea sau o bere. Zlotul are aceeaşi paritate cu leul, doar că preţurile sunt puţin mai mari. O halbă de bere vă poate costa, de exemplu, 9 zloţi, însă în locul în care am intrat, şi pentru a mânca ceva, începând cu a doua bere plăteai doar 7 zloţi. O idee bună, un truc turistic care umple localul în fiecare zi!

MALDIVE – Caracterul minunat al oamenilor
\nLuna aceasta a fost anunţat noul brand al Republicii Maldive. Sub sloganul “Always natural” imaginea creată de către specialiştii în comunicare este cea a unei destinaţii care îşi bazează creşterea, viitorul şi dezvoltarea pe natură şi produse cât mai naturale. Noul brand înglobează toate domeniile, nu numai turismul, iar emblema sa este o amprentă în nuanţe de verde, formată din siluete de animale.\"\n\nAtât sloganul cât şi logo-ul au fost create în aşa fel încât să sublinieze extraordinara frumuseţe a naturii din Maldive, frumuseţe pe care toate tipurile de turişti o consideră principalul motiv pentru a ne vizita ţara\" – a spus Thoyyib Mohamed, ministru al turismului, artelor şi culturii. David Keen, preşedintele companiei QUO Keen, creatoarea brandului, a subliniat că “am creat un brand care vorbeşte atât despre caracterul minunat al oamenilor din Maldive dar şi despre eforturile continue pentru o dezvoltare susţinută în toate industriile.”\n\n\n
Ce spune TripAdvisor ?
\nEuropa continuă să fie o destinaţie atractivă pentru turişti americani. De ce vin aceştia pe vechiul continent şi care sunt ratele lor de aşteptare au încercat să afle specialiştii de la TripAdvisor.\nConform unui studiu anual de călătorii în Europa - la care au participat 1.200 de persoane -, 60% dintre turişti plănuiesc să sosească aici în viitoarele 12 luni. Aceasta marchează o creştere a interesului cu circa 10% în comparaţie cu anul 2009. 54% din cei intervievaţi au declarat că intenţionează să călătorească în perioada septembrie-octombrie şi doar 38% că vor vizita Europa în perioada mai-iunie.\n\nCele mai căutate destinaţii sunt Londra, Paris, Roma, Barcelona şi Madrid, iar oraşele care înregistrează creşteri sunt Istanbul, Zurich, Sevilla, Atena şi Copenhaga. Un punct forte al europenilor îl constituie gastronomia, 58% dintre respondenţi apreciind că bucătăria vechiului continent este mai bună. Despre transportul public european, 90% din turiştii americani au spus că este superior celui american.\n\nÎn privinţa serviciilor, 30% consideră că sunt mai proaste în Europa. Referindu-se la atracţiile turistice, 57% dintre călători au subliniat că în Europa sunt mult mai multe lucruri de vizitat. În ceea ce priveşte standardele de cazare 36% dintre intervievaţi consideră că hotelurile prezintă în Europa un nivel inferior, comparativ cu cele din Statele Unite.\nGrupaj de SÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\n\n\n
Cele mai tari hoteluri\n\nAmericanii s-au asigurat cel puţin un sezon că au cel mai mare hotel din lume: Venetian din Las Vegas. Renovarea acestuia s-a încheiat recent. Cu cele 7.000 de camere el deţine supremaţia mondială, surclasând hotelul Asia Asia, cu 6.500 de camere din Dubailand. Venetian operează cu două dintre cele mai renumite francize de restaurante din lume şi oferă peste 50 de restaurante, baruri, cafenele, săli de evenimente şi un teatru. În acelaşi timp singaporezii au detronat Emirates Palace Hotel din Abu Dhabi, din topului celor mai scumpe hoteluri. Ei au inaugurat anul trecut Marina Bay Sands Hotel. Acesta a presupus o investiţie de aproape 6 miliarde de dolari. Preţul celei mai ieftine camere (din cele 2.500) porneşte de la 520 de dolari şi trece de 15.000 de dolari pentru un apartament, pe noapte. Printre principalele atracţii ale hotelului se numără piscina de la etajul 55, lungă de 200 metri, considerată a fi cea mai mare piscină descoperită din lume aflată la această înălţime. Circa 10.000 de angajaţi asigură serviciile oferite de hotel.

VARŞOVIA - un posibil vis fotbalistic de vară\nÎn iunie anul viitor, Polonia şi Ucraina vor găzdui turneul final al Campionatului European de Fotbal, care va atrage şi spectatori din România. Pentru cei care vor ajunge la EURO 2012, dar nu numai pentru ei, vă sugerăm o posibilă destinaţie de vacanţă – Varşovia.
\n
@ NIMIC DESPRE... TORTUL DE NUNTĂ RUSESC. Pregătirile pentru eveniment au început de mult timp, fiind vizibile pentru cei care au vizitat în cursul acestui an capitala Poloniei. Un banner imens care anunţă evenimentul sportiv se află pe o clădire-simbol a Varşoviei din perioada comunistă, Palatul Culturii şi Ştiinţei. Copie, ca şi Casa Presei din Bucureşti, a Universităţii de stat din Moscova, clădirea a fost ridicată între 1952 - 1955, fiind un dar din partea Uniunii Sovietice. Cu 231 de metri, 3288 de camere şi 42 de etaje, rămâne cea mai înaltă construcţie din Polonia şi a 8-a în topul celor mai înalte din Uniunea Europeană. De la terasa etajului 30 a clădirii care îndeplineşte rolul de centru de expoziţii, spaţii de birouri şi centru cultural, având muzee, cinematografe, teatre şi săli de concerte, ba chiar şi o universitate, se poate admira o panoramă unică a Varşoviei. Polonezii au urât-o pentru că o considerau un simbol al dominaţiei sovietice. Clădirea a fost botezată „Pekin” cu referire la capitala Chinei, de la acronimul PkiN (Palac Kultury I Nauki), dar i s-a mai spus „seringa lui Stalin” sau “tortul de nuntă rusesc”.
@ SUS INIMILE CU... CHOPIN. Dacă aţi ajuns în această zonă rezervaţi-vă trei, patru ore pentru a vizita centrul istoric al capitalei Poloniei. Într-un sfert de oră puteţi ajunge pe „Krakowskie Przedmiescie”, strada care ne duce spre centrul istoric al Varşoviei, căreia i se spune şi „Drumul Regal”. Dacă ai la îndemână o hartă a capitalei, este imposibil să te rătăceşti. În faţa clădirii Academiei de Ştiinţe a Poloniei, se poate observa statuia astronomului şi matematicianului Nicolaus Copernicus 1473-1543), cel care susţinea că soarele este în centrul Universului şi că Pământul se roteşte în jurul lui. Pe pavajul din jurul statuii sunt trasate orbitele planetelor din sistemul nostru solar. Nu le-am putut admira în ansamblu pentru că tocmai atunci o orchestră alcătuită din tineri, studenţi la conservator, se pregăteau de un concert. Nu am avut niciun regret ascultându-i!\nDe fapt, muzica clasică şi spiritul lui Frederic Chopin se simt peste tot. La mică distanţă de statuia lui Copernic se află Biserica Sfintei Cruci, unde este depusă inima celebrului compozitor polonez. Pe frontispiciul din faţa bisericii întâlnim inscripţia „SVRSVM CORDA” (Sus inimile), un pasaj din liturghia catolică, la care credincioşii răspund „Habemus ad Dominum” (Le avem la Domnul). Acesta este un fapt care evidenţiază locul special în care a fost depusă inima marelui muzician înmormântat la Paris. Dacă mergeţi pe strada ce duce spre centrul istoric, să nu credeţi că doar vi se pare că auziţi muzica lui Chopin. Băncile aflate pe această stradă au nu numai rolul de a vă informa unde vă aflaţi şi ce obiective sunt în jur. Ele încorporează boxe care difuzează discret acorduri din creaţiile lui Chopin.\n
@ SĂ DAI MÂNA CU O STATUIE. Pe aceeaşi parte cu Biserica Sfintei Cruci, e amplasat Palatul Czapski care adăposteşte astăzi Academia de Arte Frumoase, o clădire unde Chopin şi-a petrecut ultimii ani înainte de a pleca din Polonia şi de a se stabili în Franţa. Pe partea opusă se află poarta de intrare în Universitatea din Varşovia, cu clădiri frumoase, cu spaţii largi şi cu o statuie aflată pe o bancă, cu mâna dreaptă întinsă şi uşor tocită. Este în această stare de la multe generaţii de studenţi ce au dat mână cu... statuia. Superstiţia spune că e bine să faci acest lucru pentru că vei avea şanse mai mari la examene. Cine a fost student înţelege rostul unei mâini întinse înainte de întâlnirea cu profesorii încruntaţi.
\n@ SE PUTEA FĂRĂ MARLENE DIETRICH ! Mergem pe „Drumul Regal” şi ne oprim pentru a admira arhitectura Art Nouveau a hotelului Le Meridien Bristol, inaugurat în noiembrie 1901 şi considerat cel mai bun hotel din Varşovia, poate chiar din Polonia. Are o istorie tumultoasă, care se împleteşte cu cea a Varşoviei. Aici au stat compozitorii Edward Grieg şi Richard Strauss, au înnoptat Pablo Picasso, Artur Rubinstein, Marlene Dietrich. În timpul Insurecţiei poloneze din vara anului 1944, din ordinul lui Hitler, hotelul trebuia pus la pământ aşa cum s-a întâmplat cu aproape toate clădirile din centrul istoric, însă, în mod norocos, a rămas în picioare. Reparat după război, în 1952 a fost preluat de Orbis, Agenţia turistică de stat şi a devenit un loc destinat în exclusivitate turiştilor străini. În timp s-a degradat, iar în 1981 chiar a fost închis, pentru ca peste doar 10 ani să ajungă o ruină. Renovat, în aprilie 1993 hotelul a fost redeschis oficial, aici fiind cazaţi şefii de stat şi de guverne aflaţi în vizită în Polonia, dar şi alte personalităţi. În apartamentul prezidenţial de astăzi a locuit Ignac Paderewski, pianistul genial care a devenit şi primul premier al Poloniei de după primul război mondial. Aici au stat locuit şi Jacques Chirac, Helmut Kohl, Richard Nixon, Regina Elisabeta a II-a sau George Bush, nu întâmplător deoarece clădirea vecină, Palatul Radziwill, este sediul Preşedinţiei Poloniei. Chiar dacă nu am fost un oaspete de înalt nivel, am fost bine tratat la „Bristol” unde, imediat ce m-am prezentat la recepţie pentru formalităţile de cazare, am primit un plic consistent cu ghiduri şi hărţi ale Varşoviei şi împrejurimilor. Să te tot documentezi şi orientezi printre atracţiile turistice.
\n@ LOCUL UNDE PESCARII AU LĂSAT SIRENA. Mai sunt multe clădirile importante pe „Drumul Regal”. Vă lăsăm plăcerea să le descoperiţi singuri până a ajunge în Piaţa Zamkowy, unde se află columna regelui Zygmunt al III-lea Waza, rege al Poloniei şi Mare Duce al Lituaniei între 1587 şi 1632, dar şi rege al Suediei. Aici se află Castelul regal, reşedinţa regilor Poloniei începând din 1596, ca urmare a deciziei regelui Zygmunt al II-lea de a muta aici capitala după incendiul reşedinţei din Cracovia. Oraşul vechi şi acest castel distrus în al doilea război mondial şi reconstruit în 1971 sunt incluse, începând din 1980, în patrimoniul cultural mondial UNESCO. Castelul regal este amenajat ca muzeu de artă, dar tinde să devină un spaţiu pentru concerte de muzică de cameră. Tot în Piaţa Zamkowy, kilometrul zero al Varşoviei, este un punct de belvedere de unde puteţi admira silueta stadionului care, în iunie 2012, va găzdui una dintre semifinalele lui Euro 2012. În perioada verii, un minicar vă poate purta prin centrul vechi într-un tur de jumătate de oră. Străbătând străzile înguste din centrul istoric, ajungeţi în piaţa unde se află „Sirena” - simbolul oraşului Varşovia. Există multe locuri cu încărcătură istorică şi multe legende, însă cea despre Sirena din Varşovia mi se pare importantă.Potrivit legendei, o sirenă care înota în mare s-a oprit pe malul Vistulei, lângă oraşul vechi, ca să se odihnească. I-a plăcut locul şi s-a hotărât să rămână aici. Pescari au observat ceva care le încurca plasele de pescuit şi elibera peştii prinşi. Deşi intenţia lor iniţială a fost de a o prinde, pescarii s-au îndrăgostit de ea şi de muzica pe care o cânta. Mai târziu, un negustor bogat a reuşit să prindă sirena şi să o închidă într-o colibă de lemn. Auzind plânsul sirenei, un tânăr pescar a eliberat-o. Atunci sirena le-a promis pescarilor că-i va ajuta şi-i va ocroti ori de câte ori vor avea nevoie. De atunci, sirena, înarmată cu sabie şi scut e gata să apere Varşovia atât de greu încercată şi pe locuitorii săi.\nDe reţinut: toate clădirile din centrul vechi sunt refăcute. Aici sunt o mulţime de magazine cu suveniruri, dar vă puteţi orienta şi spre specialităţi precum turta dulce trasă în ciocolată sau prune trase în ciocolată. Polonezii au tradiţie în fabricarea de dulciuri, iar o dovadă este clădirea fabricii de ciocolată, care a funcţionat începând de la mijlocul secolului al 19-lea. Dacă aţi obosit după acest tur de oraş, vă puteţi aşeza la o terasă pentru o cafea sau o bere. Zlotul are aceeaşi paritate cu leul, doar că preţurile sunt puţin mai mari. O halbă de bere vă poate costa, de exemplu, 9 zloţi, însă în locul în care am intrat, şi pentru a mânca ceva, începând cu a doua bere plăteai doar 7 zloţi. O idee bună, un truc turistic care umple localul în fiecare zi!

Specialiştii au ajuns la concluzia că, deşi în ultimii 10 ani piaţa mondială de turism a crescut, piaţa americană a rămas la acelaşi nivel la capaitolul sosiri turistice.

Pieţele ţintă sunt reprezentate de zone mai puţin frecventate din estul european: Polonia are 10 noi hoteluri; Ucraina atrage investiţiile companiei către două oraşe iar Serbia poate avea primul hotel de brand în 2013. Louvre este unul dintre cele mai mari jucători la nivel mondial: peste 1.000 de unităţi în 40 de ţări, de la 1 la 5 stele. Se clasează pe locul 10 în lume şi pe locul 2 în Europa. Grupul operează şase branduri diferite: Première Classe, Campanile, Kyriad, Tulip Inn, Golden Tulip şi Royal Tulip. În Europa de Est deţine 20 de unităţi, din care 10 numai în Polonia. Hotelurile din grupul Louvre sunt deja o prezenţă cunoscută în ţări precum Franţa, Olanda, Belgia sau Italia. România deţine cinci hoteluri Golden Tulip şi Tulip Inn.

Dar specialiştii din Shanghai au anunţat că performanţa va fi depăşită cu un hotel ce urmează să fie inaugurat în 2014. Shanghai Tower J-Hotel va fi cea mai înaltă clădire din China, a doua cea mai înaltă din lume şi, în acelaşi timp, cel mai înalt hotel din lume. Clădirea va avea 121 de etaje, cu 258 de camere, iar înălţimea se va situa la aproximativ 632 de metri. Brandul e proprietate a grupului hotelier Jin Jiang iar proiectul va fi dezvoltat de către Interstate Hotels & Resorts Company Limited.

VARŞOVIA - un posibil vis fotbalistic de vară\r\n[gallery orderby=\"rand\"]\r\n\r\n\r\n
În iunie anul viitor, Polonia şi Ucraina vor găzdui turneul final al Campionatului European de Fotbal, care va atrage şi spectatori din România. Pentru cei care vor ajunge la EURO 2012, dar nu numai pentru ei, vă sugerăm o posibilă destinaţie de vacanţă – Varşovia.
\r\n\r\n
@ NIMIC DESPRE... TORTUL DE NUNTĂ RUSESC. Pregătirile pentru eveniment au început de mult timp, fiind vizibile pentru cei care au vizitat în cursul acestui an capitala Poloniei. Un banner imens care anunţă evenimentul sportiv se află pe o clădire-simbol a Varşoviei din perioada comunistă, Palatul Culturii şi Ştiinţei. Copie, ca şi Casa Presei din Bucureşti, a Universităţii de stat din Moscova, clădirea a fost ridicată între 1952 - 1955, fiind un dar din partea Uniunii Sovietice. Cu 231 de metri, 3288 de camere şi 42 de etaje, rămâne cea mai înaltă construcţie din Polonia şi a 8-a în topul celor mai înalte din Uniunea Europeană. De la terasa etajului 30 a clădirii care îndeplineşte rolul de centru de expoziţii, spaţii de birouri şi centru cultural, având muzee, cinematografe, teatre şi săli de concerte, ba chiar şi o universitate, se poate admira o panoramă unică a Varşoviei. Polonezii au urât-o pentru că o considerau un simbol al dominaţiei sovietice. Clădirea a fost botezată „Pekin” cu referire la capitala Chinei, de la acronimul PkiN (Palac Kultury I Nauki), dar i s-a mai spus „seringa lui Stalin” sau “tortul de nuntă rusesc”.
\r\n@ SUS INIMILE CU... CHOPIN. Dacă aţi ajuns în această zonă rezervaţi-vă trei, patru ore pentru a vizita centrul istoric al capitalei Poloniei. Într-un sfert de oră puteţi ajunge pe „Krakowskie Przedmiescie”, strada care ne duce spre centrul istoric al Varşoviei, căreia i se spune şi „Drumul Regal”. Dacă ai la îndemână o hartă a capitalei, este imposibil să te rătăceşti. În faţa clădirii Academiei de Ştiinţe a Poloniei, se poate observa statuia astronomului şi matematicianului Nicolaus Copernicus 1473-1543), cel care susţinea că soarele este în centrul Universului şi că Pământul se roteşte în jurul lui. Pe pavajul din jurul statuii sunt trasate orbitele planetelor din sistemul nostru solar. Nu le-am putut admira în ansamblu pentru că tocmai atunci o orchestră alcătuită din tineri, studenţi la conservator, se pregăteau de un concert. Nu am avut niciun regret ascultându-i!\r\nDe fapt, muzica clasică şi spiritul lui Frederic Chopin se simt peste tot. La mică distanţă de statuia lui Copernic se află Biserica Sfintei Cruci, unde este depusă inima celebrului compozitor polonez. Pe frontispiciul din faţa bisericii întâlnim inscripţia „SVRSVM CORDA” (Sus inimile), un pasaj din liturghia catolică, la care credincioşii răspund „Habemus ad Dominum” (Le avem la Domnul). Acesta este un fapt care evidenţiază locul special în care a fost depusă inima marelui muzician înmormântat la Paris. Dacă mergeţi pe strada ce duce spre centrul istoric, să nu credeţi că doar vi se pare că auziţi muzica lui Chopin. Băncile aflate pe această stradă au nu numai rolul de a vă informa unde vă aflaţi şi ce obiective sunt în jur. Ele încorporează boxe care difuzează discret acorduri din creaţiile lui Chopin.
\r\n@ SĂ DAI MÂNA CU O STATUIE. Pe aceeaşi parte cu Biserica Sfintei Cruci, e amplasat Palatul Czapski care adăposteşte astăzi Academia de Arte Frumoase, o clădire unde Chopin şi-a petrecut ultimii ani înainte de a pleca din Polonia şi de a se stabili în Franţa. Pe partea opusă se află poarta de intrare în Universitatea din Varşovia, cu clădiri frumoase, cu spaţii largi şi cu o statuie aflată pe o bancă, cu mâna dreaptă întinsă şi uşor tocită. Este în această stare de la multe generaţii de studenţi ce au dat mână cu... statuia. Superstiţia spune că e bine să faci acest lucru pentru că vei avea şanse mai mari la examene. Cine a fost student înţelege rostul unei mâini întinse înainte de întâlnirea cu profesorii încruntaţi.
\r\n@ SE PUTEA FĂRĂ MARLENE DIETRICH ! Mergem pe „Drumul Regal” şi ne oprim pentru a admira arhitectura Art Nouveau a hotelului Le Meridien Bristol, inaugurat în noiembrie 1901 şi considerat cel mai bun hotel din Varşovia, poate chiar din Polonia. Are o istorie tumultoasă, care se împleteşte cu cea a Varşoviei. Aici au stat compozitorii Edward Grieg şi Richard Strauss, au înnoptat Pablo Picasso, Artur Rubinstein, Marlene Dietrich. În timpul Insurecţiei poloneze din vara anului 1944, din ordinul lui Hitler, hotelul trebuia pus la pământ aşa cum s-a întâmplat cu aproape toate clădirile din centrul istoric, însă, în mod norocos, a rămas în picioare. Reparat după război, în 1952 a fost preluat de Orbis, Agenţia turistică de stat şi a devenit un loc destinat în exclusivitate turiştilor străini. În timp s-a degradat, iar în 1981 chiar a fost închis, pentru ca peste doar 10 ani să ajungă o ruină. Renovat, în aprilie 1993 hotelul a fost redeschis oficial, aici fiind cazaţi şefii de stat şi de guverne aflaţi în vizită în Polonia, dar şi alte personalităţi. În apartamentul prezidenţial de astăzi a locuit Ignac Paderewski, pianistul genial care a devenit şi primul premier al Poloniei de după primul război mondial. Aici au stat locuit şi Jacques Chirac, Helmut Kohl, Richard Nixon, Regina Elisabeta a II-a sau George Bush, nu întâmplător deoarece clădirea vecină, Palatul Radziwill, este sediul Preşedinţiei Poloniei. Chiar dacă nu am fost un oaspete de înalt nivel, am fost bine tratat la „Bristol” unde, imediat ce m-am prezentat la recepţie pentru formalităţile de cazare, am primit un plic consistent cu ghiduri şi hărţi ale Varşoviei şi împrejurimilor. Să te tot documentezi şi orientezi printre atracţiile turistice.
\r\n@ LOCUL UNDE PESCARII AU LĂSAT SIRENA. Mai sunt multe clădirile importante pe „Drumul Regal”. Vă lăsăm plăcerea să le descoperiţi singuri până a ajunge în Piaţa Zamkowy, unde se află columna regelui Zygmunt al III-lea Waza, rege al Poloniei şi Mare Duce al Lituaniei între 1587 şi 1632, dar şi rege al Suediei. Aici se află Castelul regal, reşedinţa regilor Poloniei începând din 1596, ca urmare a deciziei regelui Zygmunt al II-lea de a muta aici capitala după incendiul reşedinţei din Cracovia. Oraşul vechi şi acest castel distrus în al doilea război mondial şi reconstruit în 1971 sunt incluse, începând din 1980, în patrimoniul cultural mondial UNESCO. Castelul regal este amenajat ca muzeu de artă, dar tinde să devină un spaţiu pentru concerte de muzică de cameră. Tot în Piaţa Zamkowy, kilometrul zero al Varşoviei, este un punct de belvedere de unde puteţi admira silueta stadionului care, în iunie 2012, va găzdui una dintre semifinalele lui Euro 2012. În perioada verii, un minicar vă poate purta prin centrul vechi într-un tur de jumătate de oră. Străbătând străzile înguste din centrul istoric, ajungeţi în piaţa unde se află „Sirena” - simbolul oraşului Varşovia. Există multe locuri cu încărcătură istorică şi multe legende, însă cea despre Sirena din Varşovia mi se pare importantă.Potrivit legendei, o sirenă care înota în mare s-a oprit pe malul Vistulei, lângă oraşul vechi, ca să se odihnească. I-a plăcut locul şi s-a hotărât să rămână aici. Pescari au observat ceva care le încurca plasele de pescuit şi elibera peştii prinşi. Deşi intenţia lor iniţială a fost de a o prinde, pescarii s-au îndrăgostit de ea şi de muzica pe care o cânta. Mai târziu, un negustor bogat a reuşit să prindă sirena şi să o închidă într-o colibă de lemn. Auzind plânsul sirenei, un tânăr pescar a eliberat-o. Atunci sirena le-a promis pescarilor că-i va ajuta şi-i va ocroti ori de câte ori vor avea nevoie. De atunci, sirena, înarmată cu sabie şi scut e gata să apere Varşovia atât de greu încercată şi pe locuitorii săi.\r\nDe reţinut: toate clădirile din centrul vechi sunt refăcute. Aici sunt o mulţime de magazine cu suveniruri, dar vă puteţi orienta şi spre specialităţi precum turta dulce trasă în ciocolată sau prune trase în ciocolată. Polonezii au tradiţie în fabricarea de dulciuri, iar o dovadă este clădirea fabricii de ciocolată, care a funcţionat începând de la mijlocul secolului al 19-lea. Dacă aţi obosit după acest tur de oraş, vă puteţi aşeza la o terasă pentru o cafea sau o bere. Zlotul are aceeaşi paritate cu leul, doar că preţurile sunt puţin mai mari. O halbă de bere vă poate costa, de exemplu, 9 zloţi, însă în locul în care am intrat, şi pentru a mânca ceva, începând cu a doua bere plăteai doar 7 zloţi. O idee bună, un truc turistic care umple localul în fiecare zi!

UNESCO – de la arheologie la fotbal\r\n\r\nSuntem obişnuiţi să găsim simbolul patrimoniului UNESCO afişat pe clădiri, la intrarea în situri arheologice sau alături de descrierea unor obective turistice, în ghiduri şi chiar pe tricourile echipelor de fotbal. A devenit o marcă, un garant al calităţii. Organizaţia selectează însă, anual, şi minuni naturale ale globului. Anul trecut a adus în atenţia publicului 8 destinaţii pentru aventură, din Tanzania, China, Rusia ori Pacific.\r\n\r\nÎn peşterile preistorice ale lui Yagul şi Mitla (Oaxaca, la 550 km de Mexico City), sunt picturi rupestre, dar s-au găsit seminţe de cucurbitacee, vechi de peste 10.000 de ani. Regiunea Danxia din China are particularitatea de a afişa un peisaj selenar, colorat în zeci de nuanţe. Insulele Phoenix reprezintă cea mai mare regiune marină protejată din lume (10.000 km NV de Insulele Fiji din Pacificul de Sud). Insulele Reunion (Oceanul Indian) oferă peisajul conurilor vulcanice iar zona Papahanaumokuakea (NV de Hawaii) adaposteşte recifuri de corali cu specii rare de vieţuitoare marine.\r\n\r\nDacă vreţi mai mult de atât puteţi încerca Zona de conservare Ngorongoro din Tanzania. Inclusă în patrimoniul UNESCO în 1979 - este considerată locul în care au fost descoperiţi pentru prima dată stramoşii omului. Lista se încheie cu Rezervaţia Naturala de Stat Putoransky din Rusia (100 km Nord de Cercul Arctic) şi Podişurile Centrale din Sri Lanka, regiuni ce adăpostesc animale pe cale de dispariţie. În ultimii 28 de ani UNESCO a identificat în jur de 180 de minuni naturale ale lumii, în 77 de ţări.

[/caption]\r\n\r\nPREA MODEŞTI CÂND NU TREBUIE\r\nAsta este concluzia noastră după ce, în ultimele luni, am avut prilejul de a constata că numeroase unităţi de cazare europene una vând pe net şi alta găseşti la faţa locului. La Madrid, Paris, Milano, Florenţa, Roma am observat că sub acest aspect pe afară e vopsit gardul dar când îţi iei camera în primire confortul este sub nivelul preţului plătit. Că hoteluri de 3 şi 4 stele îţi oferă în majoritatea cazurilor condiţii inferioare de cazare. Asta ca să ne păstrăm în termeni... eleganţi.\r\n\r\nDacă privim din cealaltă perspectivă în România - şi ea tot o ţară europeană, s-au construit sute de hoteluri noi, s-au modernizat cele vechi, multe intrate în lanţuri internaţionale. Preţul oferit este inferior în dese situaţii calităţii spaţiilor de cazare şi serviciilor puse la dispoziţie. Exemple la îndemână! Bucureştiul a crescut foarte mult. Oraşe ca Braşov, Sibiu, Târgu Mureş, Cluj, Timişoara, Oradea, Constanţa ori Iaşi, unde de abia aşteptăm să găsim timp să inspectăm noul complex Palas, sunt beneficiarele unor investiţii de top.\r\n\r\nCu toate acestea cei care ne vizitează mai strâmbă din nas la ceea ce oferim deşi în comparaţie cu oraşe europene, suntem într-o poziţie favorabilă. Drept urmare, afirmăm în cunoştinţă de cauză, că ne exprimăm prea modest exact acolo unde nu trebuie. Unele site-uri de prezentare sunt sărăcăcioase, chiar zgârcite cu informaţii vizuale, când ar trebui să fie mai agresive prin ceea ce oferă turistului. Mai ales că realitatea ne ajută. Modestie managerială sau lipsă de inspiraţie în promovarea hotelurilor? Nepricepere sau lipsă de experienţă?\r\n\r\nToate acestea demobilizează business-ul tocmai în momentul în care ar trebui să fie insistent publicitat. Modestia, reluăm, nu face casă bună cu un mediu concurenţial unde proprietarii din alte ţări îşi strigă marfa cu mai mult talent şi devotament. Pentru că din asta trăiesc. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Coperta-nr-95.jpg\" "\\"Coperta")
\r\n\r\nApoi vedem o neconcordanţă - şi asta spune multe despre mediul de afaceri din turism -, între prestaţiile unor organizaţii ca FPTR, FIHR, ANAT ori ANTREC, care ar trebui să cânte împreună în spectacolul promovării. Scenariu este de bună calitate. Mai trebuie şi actori îndrăzneţi care să pună în operă... piesa. Presa de profil este unul dintre ei. Căutaţi-ne!\r\n\r\nCă nu greşim, ne-o confirmă şi o informaţie recentă. Ea arată că Bucureştiul se află - într-un top întocmit de site-ul www.hotel.info-, pe locul 18 în ceea ce priveşte gradul de satisfacţie al clienţilor hotelurilor dar şi al raportului calitate-preţ. Prima poziţie este ocupată de câţiva ani de Varşovia secondată de Tokio şi Helsinki. Vă spune ceva?\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nDoriţi să citiţi toată revista?

O tură de aventură printre... trifoi şi tigăi
Nu mai e nicio îndoială. Din ce în ce mai mulţi turişti români, individuali ori companii, devin „dependenţi” de turismul de aventură. Nu e obligatoriu să fie tineri. Categoria care aleargă după asemenea programe are următoarea tipologie: dinamici, căutători de pachete alternative turismului clasic, consumatori de experienţe noi. Frumoasă dependenţă.
\r\n@ PIONIERI ÎN JUNGLA MONTANĂ. La una dintre aventuri am participat şi noi ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Aventura-099.jpg\" "\\"Aventura")
într-un program organizat în zona Azuga de către firma Global Events Production, prin subsidiara sa specializată JW Escapade. Am pornit din Azuga cu o caravană de maşini echipate special pentru a intra în inima unei naturi neatinse, plină de capcane şi de drumuri pe care nu a mai trecut cineva înainte noastră. Unul dintre echipaje este condus chiar de Petruţ Pătrăşcoiu, directorul general al grupului de travel amintit, camaradul nostru de suspans şi de schimbat viteze în pantă, la vale sau la deal. Peisajul, mirific pentru necunoscători, furnizează suficiente capcane pentru cei dornici să trăiască la maxim o experienţă în care stomacul ţi se urcă în gât, adrenalina creşte peste nivelul la care te aşteptai iar partenerii de drum se dovedesc a fi prieteni de... suferinţă. Nu e vorba de o suferinţă medicală ci turistică. După câţiva kilometri ne întâlnim cu un copac prăbuşit chiar pe mijlocul drumului. Aventura îşi arată colţii. Acum descoperim ce înseamnă să fim o echipă. Punem mână de la mână şi cu forţă şi opinteli reuşim să îndepărtăm obstacolul. N-a fost nimic programat. Evenimentul este trecut la obiective realizate din mers. Jeepul Wrangler ne poartă pe Valea Azugii, drum dumnezeiesc, măturat de razele soarelui de iarnă. Urcăm spre Cabana Trifoiului, apoi ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Aventura-161.jpg\" "\\"Aventura")
spre Vârful Tigăile, la peste 1500 de metri. Ajungem la Cabana Susai, cândva un loc de tabere sportive şi popas al montaniarzilor. Azi lucrurile s-au schimbat. Un investitor român a făcut ca acest obiectiv să-şi schimbe faţa. S-au băgat bani şi se vede. Cabana Susai arată ca un hotel confortabil, dublat de facilităţi pe care nu le bănuieşti în vârf de munte. Restaurant şi terase primitoare, complex de agrement cu piscină şi jacuzzi. Un singur lucru a rămas neschimbat. Anunţul de la uşa de intrare. El semnalează să nu vă îndepărtaţi de hotel noaptea pentru că e posibil să vă întâlniţi cu familii de urşi, plecate şi ele probabil într-un program turistic eco. Dacă o faceţi e pe riscul dumneavoastră. De aici timp de câteva ore tăiem crestele munţilor care ne furnizează panorame fabuloase, inedite.
@ NICIO SURPRIZĂ NU VINE SINGURĂ. Când nu mai aveam vreo speranţă şi ne ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Aventura-177.jpg\" "\\"Aventura")
gândeam la reîntoarcere, într-o poiană în care am avut senzaţia că putem să atingem cerul cu mâna, cade ca din întâmplare o altă supriză. Un cort special amenajat şi un grătar pe care sfârâiau la greu friptane, mititei, cărnăciori. Alături s-a potrivit o tocăniţă de cartofi şi murături pe cinste. Pentru vegetarieni, dar cine a rezistat tentaţiilor, legumele la grătar, s-au dovedit la fel de gustoase. Despre lăsarea la lichide – adică ţuică, vodcă şi vin fiert – se întelege cum au stat lucrurile. Toate au fost preparate de personalul firmei JW Escapade, care are sediul operaţional chiar in Azuga. Nu sunt maeştri bucătari galonaţi dar ceea ce fac, fac bine şi cu respectul faţă de dorinţele turistului captivat de aventură, dispus să trăiască în vârf de munte şi o supriză gastronomică tradiţională. În fapt este vorba de o caravană care porneşte înainte turiştilor, campează, şi asigură la cerere toate produsele preparate ca la mama acasă. Să nu vă imaginaţi că rămâne mizerie în urma acestor oameni, adevăraţi ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Aventura-314.jpg\" "\\"Aventura")
profesionişti ai muntelui. Totul se strânge după plecarea turiştilor spre bază, adică la Azuga, iar poiana respectivă rămâne curată ca la începutul lumii. Din natură am venit şi în natură ne vom întoarce. Pare să fie prima regulă a celor care fac turism de aventură – dacă respecţi natura şi ea te respectă pe tine.
@ STAŢI, ÎNCĂ N-AŢI SCĂPAT. Totul s-a terminat cu bine. Când credeam că am scăpat cu viaţă am fost chemaţi la o partidă de vopsit. Nu, să nu credeţi că e vorba de cosmetică. Pur şi simplu, am fost chemaţi, cu mic cu mare la Escapade Fun Park, zona de aventură amenajată între pârtia de la Azuga şi hotelul de cinci stele Lux Garden. Un hotel rafinat pe care merită să-l testaţi. Merită să vă încumetaţi într-o partidă de paintball în care, oricâte deprinderi aţi avea, nu veţi scăpa cu... faţa curată. Şi la propriu şi la figurat. Şi această aventură are toate datele să satisfacă turiştii doritori de războaie imaginare. Cum majoritatea tinerilor n-au pus mâna pe o puşcă în viaţa lor, partidele colorate de vânătoare, sunt precedate de un instructaj sever şi serios. Asta ca să fie clar. Când tragi sau vin spre tine cam 100 de bile colorate, pe post de gloanţe, trebuie să şti cum să le faci faţă. Am luat-o şi noi în plin, dar alţii au ieşit şi mai pictaţi. Dacă asta e o satisfacţie. O parte din însoţitori au fost mai prudenţi. S-au apucat de tras cu arcul dar nici acolo nu le-a fost mai uşor. Încă o tură de aventură demnă de trăit.
\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Aventura-3361.jpg\" "\\"Aventura")
@ POATE FI ACESTA UN BUSINESS DE TURISM? În mod sigur da – este de părere managerul Pătruţ Pătrăşcoiu. „Timp de ani de zile ne-am ocupat prin Global Events Production, de programe şi pachete turistice clasice. Am dezvoltat foarte mult segmentul de evenimente şi, în urma unor studii de piaţă, am constatat că relaţia travel agent-hotelier, este încă departe de a se baza pe respect şi seriozitate. În domeniu evenimentelor au aparut treptat cereri de programe tematice. Cum era de aşteptat, din zona corporate pentru început. Atunci ne-am gândit să dezvoltăm petrecerile şi programele tematice. După ce au loc conferinţe ori simpozioane oamenii doresc să iasă la aer liber, să trăiască şi experienţe memorabile. Turismul de aventură le procura asemenea satisfacţii. Firma pe care o conduc furnizează toată logistica necesară cu care ne deplasăm pe toată Valea Prahovei, la Poiana Braşov, în vecinătăţile Bucureştiului, oriunde doreşte clientul şi este posibil să derulăm şi programe tematice. Petrecerile au denumiri diverse care corespund cu tematicile aferente. De la Western Party, Vampire Party, French Cabaret până la Medieval Party, Blue Deep Party sau Brazilian Fiesta”.\r\nDeseori pachetele turistice oferite includ o masă la Cramele Halewood de la Azuga unde poţi trăi o nouă aventură, de data aceasta gastronomică printre sticle pline cu un vin ori un spumant de calitate.

10 elevi şi studenţi au reprezentat România în Franţa în cadrul Schimburilor de Experienţă şi Bune Practici la Centrul European de Profesii Culinare Paris. Documentarea face parte dintr-un amplu proiect ce beneficiază de finanţare europeană. El este derulat în cadrul unui parteneriat transnaţional de Fundaţia “Nicolae Nejloveanu” din Constanţa, CIT SA, Centrul European de Profesii Culinare din Paris etc.\r\n\r\nElevii şi studenţii români au fost selectaţi dintre cei mai buni participanţi la proiect. Stagiul de la Paris s-a desfăşurat sub deviza “Găteşte pentru oameni cărora nu le este foame”. Ei au descoperit alături de elevii CEPROC Paris, specificitatea bucătăriei franceze şi ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Ceproc-2.jpg\" "\\"Ceproc")
atuurile turismului ţării gazdă. Pe parcursul a 5 zile aceştia au participat la seminarul “Bufet de Prestigiu – Tendinţe 2012” susţinut de Jean François Deport (Meilleur Ouvrier de France), bucătarul şef al faimosului restaurant Jules Verne de la Turnul Eiffel.\r\n\r\nTendinţele gastronomiei pentru anul 2012 au fost transpuse în preparate de catering inovative precum: foie gras, sushi St. Jacques, amestec de mere şi pere cu condimente dulci, tartar de sfeclă, terină de somon fumé, piept de pui Paris cu caju, ananas cu aroma de ghimbir etc. Ulterior participanţii au avut oportunitatea de a cunoaşte gastronomia franceză ridicată la grad de artă în localuri de renume: restaurantele Le Florimond şi Le Nôtre, magazinul gastronomic La Grande Epicerie de Paris şi luxosul hotel Shangri. Tinerii români au mai vizitat cea mai mare piaţă de alimente din Europa – Rungis care a fost fondată în 1969. Aceasta este o veritabilă bursă cotidiană de achiziţii de produse de calitate pentru distribuitorii din Europa Centrală şi de Vest.

„Gala Dinner Euro-Toques 2011 » de la Luxemburg a fost unul dintre evenimentele onorate de către Euro-Toques România, organizaţie condusă de către Dumitru Burtea, fondator şi preşedinte de onoare al Asociaţiei Naţionale a Bucătarilor şi Cofetarilor din România (ANBCT). După cum ne-a precizat acesta „Gala a reprezentat un rendez-vous special, organizat de Euro-Toques Luxembourg pe vasul M.S. Princesse Marie-Astrid, unde s-au întâlnit mari personalităţi ale gastronomiei şi somelăriei internaţionale. Pentru eveniment au fost selectionate cele mai bune produse si vinuri, a fost pus în operă un meniu exceptional, iar contravaloarea meniului, 115 euro de persoană -, a fost donat restauratorilor sinistraţi din Japonia”. Printre cei 240 de invitaţi s-au numărat reprezentanţii Euro-Toques România: Burtea Dumitru, Urs Nicolae şi Turean Nicolae, împreuna cu un fost coleg de branşă, azi![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Rest-Eurotoque.jpg\" "\\"Rest")
cetăţean luxemburghez, domnul Damian Ion - ce promovează în restaurantul său « ProArte Sibiu » din Remich (Luxembourg), preparate tradiţionale românesti din zona Sibiului şi vinuri din Transilvania.\r\nCel de-al doilea eveniment la care a participat Euro-Toques România a fost « Open Days » - Săptămâna europeană a regiunilor şi oraşelor. El a fost organizat pentru al 9-lea an consecutiv la Bruxelles, de către Comitetul Regiunilor, sub sloganul « Investim în viitorul Europei ». 14 bucătari din cele 18 ţări membre Euro-Toques International au preparat şi prezentat specialităţi regionale destinate recepţiei « Open Days » Ei au permis invitaţilor să descopere diversitatea culinara a regiunilor europene. Fiecare ţară a beneficiat de un stand pe care şi-a expus, într-un decor rustic cât mai autentic, obiceiurile şi tradiţiile, promovând un «mic colţisor din ţara sa». «Open Days » a reunit peste 1400 de invitaţi. Delegaţia României a fost formată din 4 bucătari - Burtea Dumitru, Urs Nicolae, Man Robert şi Ghişoi Cornelia -, şi 4 specialişti, colaboratori ai Asociaţiei Euro-Toques România:Urs Rodica, Achimescu Luminiţa, Albu Ioana şi Baboi Constantin. Meniul conceput de români a constat în trei servicii: « Simfonia Dunării » - preparate pe bază de peşte din Delta Dunării (şalău, sturioni, icre de ştiucă, raci) - 200 porţii; « Duet de mistreţ şi căprioară cu ciuperci de pădure şi aromă de trufe de Carpaţi» - 200 porţii; desert tradiţional : papanaşi cu dulceaţă şi smântână şi gomboti cu prune – 100 porţii.\r\n\r\n«Prin acţiunile de anvergură în care suntem implicaţi cu Asociaţia Euro-Toques România, dorim să promovăm tradiţiile fiecărei ţări europene, să sensibilizăm parlamentarii europeni cu privire la preparatele şi ingredientele proaspete » – ne-a mai precizat preşedintele Dumitru Burtea.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nEUGEN GROSU e BUCĂTARUL DE AUR 2011 \r\n\r\n
![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Buc-de-aur-0031.jpg\" "\\"Buc")
Şalău, anghilă afumată, hrişcă cu aromă de brad şi germeni de schinduf la gustare. Fel de bază: Piure de cartofi şi trufe, muguri de pin pudră, castane cu aromă de rom negru şi melasă. Desert: plăcintă de pere, jeleu de pere şi îngheţată de pere. Cu aceste piesele de rezistenţă Eugen Grosu şi-a adujudecat în luna decembrie Trofeul şi premiul „Bucătarul de Aur al Bucureştiului”. El este bucătar şef al Restaurantului Casa Doina „La Şosea”. Selecţia vinurilor realizată de Marius Bratu, somelier la Cramele Halewood, a fost Chardonnay (Sebeş-Apold), Pinot Noir (Dealu Mare), respectiv Tămâioasă Românească (Dealu Mare, Prahova Valley).\r\n\r\nEl a şi fost premiat pentru cea mai bună asociere a vinului cu un preparat. A III-a ediţie a concursului a fost organizată de Compania de Investiţii pentru Turism, condusă de ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Buc-de-Aur-063.jpg\" "\\"Buc")
Gabriela Berechet şi Federaţia Bucătarilor din România, cu sprijinul Centrului de Excelenţă în Gastronomie Aroma etc.\r\n\r\nSpre deosebire de competiţiile anterioare în faza finală din acest an s-au calificat 5 bucătari. Juriul a reunit maeştrii titraţi ca David Contant (câştigătorul Trofeului la prima ediţie), Cornelia Ghişoi (prima Lady Chef din România, confirmată de către WACS), Henrik Sebock şi soemlierul Marian Timofti. El a avut greaua misiune de a departaja prin punctaj şi preparatele create de Ashlie Dias Thomas (Crowne Plaza), Cristian Văduva (bucătar independent), Petre Vartolomei (Cautis), Maria Ungureanu (Restaurant Maxim). Eugen Grosu, care păstrează, conform tradiţiei, timp de un an trofeul „Bucătarul de Aur al Bucureştiului” a primit un training de specializare la Centrul Angelo Po în Italia. Pe locul 2 s-a clasat Ashlie Dias de la Crowne Plaza, fiind urmat, de Petre Vartolomei, respectiv de ajutorii de bucătar - Cristian Văduva şi Maria Ungureanu (locurile 4 şi 5). Ca şi la ediţiile anterioare concursul s-a desfăşurat sub deviza „Gastronomie românească modernă--„Regândim Tradiţia!”.\r\n\r\nEl a avut şi un scop social, fondurile strânse fiind donate Asociaţiei “Sfântul Arhidiacon Ştefan”.

Cele 5 personalităţi care au completat galeria premiaţilor galelor Conferinţei Hospitality Trends Bucharest au fost recompensate cu aplauzele cuvenite la recenta ediţie, IV-a a evenimentului.
@ CĂLIN ILE, PRIMUL ROMÂN CARE PRIMEŞTE DISTINCŢIA HOTELIERUL ANULUI. Organizatorii Galei, găzduită de hotelul Radisson BLU, au decernat următoarele distincţii:Hotelierul anului (Călin Ile, directorul hotelului Ibis-Gara de Nord), Deschiderea anului (hotelul Ramada din Piteşti, reprezentat de Virgil Dumitru), Excelenţă în ospitalitate şi educaţie ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Trend-Calin-Ile-Ibis11.jpg\" "\\"Trend")

@ O CONFERINŢĂ LA NIVEL... AMERICAN. Manifestarea a fost organizată de Trend Hospitality Consulting & Management în parteneriat cu INTEHL – Institute of Innovation and Entrepreneurship of Ecole hôtelière de Lausanne, sub patronajul Ministerului Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului. Ea a fost dedicată industriei ospitalităţii din Europa de Sud Est cu accent pe România. Tema evenimentului a fost “The World is Changing, Are We ?”. Agenda dezbaterilor a cuprins subiecte importante de marketing turistic, distribuţie, branduri, investiţii, educaţie şi formare profesională. În fiecare an conferinţa, a cărui organizare a ajuns la un nivel profesionist, echivalent cu cele ce se desfăşoară în Occident ori în Statele Unite, a atras lideri de calibru din domeniile dezvoltării şi finanţării industriei mondiale a ospitalităţii. Lanţuri ca Marriott, Hilton, Rezidor Intercontinental etc, au fost reprezentate la nivel de top.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Trend-Dumitru-Burtea-Buc2.jpg\" "\\"Trend")

hotelexperts, Joel Goldman – Director/Small Luxury Hotels of the World, Lucian Marinescu – Senior Associate/Trend Hospitality etc.\r\n\r\n@ DE UNDE BATE VÂNTUL ÎN TENDINŢE ! Fără îndoială că Tinu Sebeşanu, liderul Trend Hospitality, avea dreptate când afirma că actuala criză mondială a adus în faţa industriei ospitalităţii provocări nebănuite. În faţa lor profesioniştii şi tehnologiile au trebuit să ofere răspunsuri. Ele au fost aşteptate de consumatori care au rămas fideli ori s-au reorientat spre concepte de cazare inovative şi flexibile. Nu numai la capitolul preţuri şi tarife. Acesta e doar vârful aisbergului. Jeffrey Scott a conferenţiat despre adevărata natură a businessului turistic în timp ce Konstanze Auernheimer a prezentat 10 tendinţe ale ospitalităţii. S-a vorbit despre provocările turismului virtual dar şi despre ale celui online aspecte care au atras opinii pro şi contra.\r\n\r\nAceasta a prezentat evaluări asupra unor tendinţe conform cărora gradul mai mare de ocupare nu se regăseşte obligatoriu şi în încasări (grad mare, preţ mic, încasări modeste). O tendinţă aparte se înregistrează în Europa unde s-au dezvoltat foarte multe hoteluri neafiliate. Multe dintre acestea, datorită flexibilităţii marketingului au înregistrat câştiguri în ciuda crizei economice. Ca tendinţe în 2012 industria hotelieră din oraşe ca Londra, Dublin, Frankfurt, Milano, Praga, Hong Kong ori Viena vor înregistra creşteri în timp ce Oslo, Zurich, Budapesta dar şi Dubai se vor confrunta cu scăderi catastrofale – sunt de părere experţii internaţionali. Conform opiniei lui Lukas Hochedlinger investitorii în turism rămân prudenţi faţă de poziţionarea în Estul Europei în timp ce apetitul pentru contracte se manifestă mai vizibil la cele de francisă. Bechy Fisher – Global Client Relations Manager/Bare International a vorbit, da, despre adrenalină şi turism, despre modul în care trebuie să se poziţioneze hotelierul faţă de oaspeţi. El trebuie să-i întreţină gradul de satisfacţie şi să-i conserve loialitatea.\r\n@ SĂ REÎNVĂŢĂM ARTA DE A ZÂMBI ! Este o minciună periculoasă că tehnologia poate înlocui sistemul de relaţii. În ultimii ani s-a văzut că absolutizarea acesteia a adus daune mari unor hoteluri cu pretenţii. Acum ele s-au întors la reîncălzirea relaţiilor personale, a celor de parteneriat care privesc cu foarte multă atenţie poziţionarea consumatorului faţă de un tarif, faţă de un serviciu plătit ori gratuit. Fără această abordare nu există perspectivă şi cei care vor pierde competiţia zâmbetului o vor face pe termen lung - afirma Bechy. Cei care vor reuşi să te convingă să revi în acelaşi loc pentru o viitoare vacanţă vor câştiga la… ruleta hotelieră.

@ CĂLIN ILE, PRIMUL ROMÂN CARE PRIMEŞTE DISTINCŢIA HOTELIERUL ANULUI. Organizatorii Galei, găzduită de hotelul Radisson BLU, au decernat următoarele distincţii:Hotelierul anului (Călin Ile, directorul hotelului Ibis-Gara de Nord), Deschiderea anului (hotelul Ramada din Piteşti, reprezentat de Virgil Dumitru), Excelenţă în ospitalitate şi educaţie (prof. Gabriela Ţigu, ASE), Pentru întreaga carieră (Dumitru Burtea, membru de onoare WACS, preşedinte al Eurotoque România), repectiv Cel mai bun proiect hotelier al anului (complexul Palas Iaşi, reprezentat de Ioana Muşat).\n\nÎn ceea ce priveşte distincţia de Hotelierul Anului este pentru prima dată când ea revine unui manager român, nu expat. Premiul confirmă creşterea în carieră a directorului Călin Ile unul dintre puţinii lideri români care au beneficiat de o bursă internaţională de pregătire acordată în urmă cu ani de zile de către FIHR. Ile este implicat în activitatea mai multor organizaţii profesionale. El ocupă poziţia de vice-preşedinte al Federaţiei Industriei Hoteliere din România din luna mai 2011, şi este un promotor activ al turismului autohton. El a reprezentat FIHR în Consiliul consultativ privind stabilirea brandului de ţară al României şi la Consiliul consultativ privind strategia de promovare a turismului în Municipiul Bucureşti.\n\n@ O CONFERINŢĂ LA NIVEL... AMERICAN. Manifestarea a fost organizată de Trend Hospitality Consulting & Management în parteneriat cu INTEHL – Institute of Innovation and Entrepreneurship of Ecole hôtelière de Lausanne, sub patronajul Ministerului Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului. Ea a fost dedicată industriei ospitalităţii din Europa de Sud Est cu accent pe România. Tema evenimentului a fost “The World is Changing, Are We ?”. Agenda dezbaterilor a cuprins subiecte importante de marketing turistic, distribuţie, branduri, investiţii, educaţie şi formare profesională. În fiecare an conferinţa, a cărui organizare a ajuns la un nivel profesionist, echivalent cu cele ce se desfăşoară în Occident ori în Statele Unite, a atras lideri de calibru din domeniile dezvoltării şi finanţării industriei mondiale a ospitalităţii.

Fără îndoială că Tinu Sebeşanu, liderul Trend Hospitality, avea dreptate când afirma că actuala criză mondială a adus în faţa industriei ospitalităţii provocări nebănuite. În faţa lor profesioniştii şi tehnologiile au trebuit să ofere răspunsuri. Ele au fost aşteptate de consumatori care au rămas fideli ori s-au reorientat spre concepte de cazare inovative şi flexibile. Nu numai la capitolul preţuri şi tarife. Acesta e doar vârful aisbergului. Jeffrey Scott a conferenţiat despre adevărata natură a businessului turistic în timp ce Konstanze Auernheimer a prezentat 10 tendinţe ale ospitalităţii. S-a vorbit despre provocările turismului virtual dar şi despre ale celui online aspecte care au atras opinii pro şi contra.\n\nAceasta a prezentat evaluări asupra unor tendinţe conform cărora gradul mai mare de ocupare nu se regăseşte obligatoriu şi în încasări (grad mare, preţ mic, încasări modeste). O tendinţă aparte se înregistrează în Europa unde s-au dezvoltat foarte multe hoteluri neafiliate. Multe dintre acestea, datorită flexibilităţii marketingului au înregistrat câştiguri în ciuda crizei economice. Ca tendinţe în 2012 industria hotelieră din oraşe ca Londra, Dublin, Frankfurt, Milano, Praga, Hong Kong ori Viena vor înregistra creşteri în timp ce Oslo, Zurich, Budapesta dar şi Dubai se vor confrunta cu scăderi catastrofale – sunt de părere experţii internaţionali. Conform opiniei lui Lukas Hochedlinger investitorii în turism rămân prudenţi faţă de poziţionarea în Estul Europei în timp ce apetitul pentru contracte se manifestă mai vizibil la cele de francisă. Bechy Fisher – Global Client Relations Manager/Bare International a vorbit, da, despre adrenalină şi turism, despre modul în care trebuie să se poziţioneze hotelierul faţă de oaspeţi. El trebuie să-i întreţină gradul de satisfacţie şi să-i conserve loialitatea.
\n@ SĂ REÎNVĂŢĂM ARTA DE A ZÂMBI ! Este o minciună periculoasă că tehnologia poate înlocui sistemul de relaţii. În ultimii ani s-a văzut că absolutizarea acesteia a adus daune mari unor hoteluri cu pretenţii. Acum ele s-au întors la reîncălzirea relaţiilor personale, a celor de parteneriat care privesc cu foarte multă atenţie poziţionarea consumatorului faţă de un tarif, faţă de un serviciu plătit ori gratuit. Fără această abordare nu există perspectivă şi cei care vor pierde competiţia zâmbetului o vor face pe termen lung - afirma Bechy.

Check-in automat şi gratuit\r\nCompania Naţională Aeroporturi Bucureşti a introdus 12 dispozitive automate de efectuare a formalităţilor de check-in la Aeroportul Internaţional Henri Coandă Bucureşti (AIHCB). Facilitatea de «self-service chek-in» este pusă de către CNAB la dispoziţia pasagerilor care tranzitează aeroportul şi a companiilor aeriene care operează aici, în mod gratuit, fără tarife suplimentare.\r\nPrin intermediul sistemului performant, operaţiunea de check-in s-a simplificat la ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Otopeni-11.jpg\" "\\"Otopeni")
minimum, pasagerii nemaifiind nevoiţi să aştepte la eventualele cozi formate la ghişee pentru a realiza formalităţile de îmbarcare şi îşi pot alege singuri locurile în aeronavă. Sistemul funcţionează în limba română pentru compania TAROM şi în limba engleza pentru ceilalţi transportatori aerieni. O altă variantă rapidă de obţinere a talonului de îmbarcare este check-in-ul on line.

\r\nSurprize, surprize la acest sfârşit de an. După asocierea cu protagoniştii Avatar în primăvara lui 2010, a venit rândul omuleţilor albaştrii, Strumpfii, să călătorească alături de pasagerii Blue Air. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Blue-AirStrumpf-4.jpg\" "\\"Blue")

Unii joacă la ruleta cuvintelor miliarde de euro, fără habar să n-aibă cum se face 1. Aşa că am plecat în pribegie să aducem bani la Românica. Ne-au împins foamea, criza, furia, nervii, prostia şi crahul mondial, care îţi taie plăcerea să mai călătoreşti pe meridiane. Duşi am fost, din Insulele Cayman până în Honduras, din Gibraltar până prin Mexic, din Spania până-n Turcia, din Germania până în Italia, din Ungaria până în Statele Unite.\r\n\r\nAm atacat Wall Street-ul, dar bancherii ne-au râs în nas arătându-ne buzunarele goale, am aruncat în aer seifurile băncilor unde am găsit scrisori emoţionante care începeau cu... Reveniţi... etc. După aia am aruncat în sac ce ne-a căzut în mână - avioane, vase de croazieră, trenuri, autocare, submarine, rachete turistice. Unde n-a ţinut am scos puşca şi am tras. Ei au scos digitalele şi ne-au tras în fotografie, unde se cam vede că ne-a ajuns cuţitul la os. \r\nAm dat-o pe glumă, că asta ne-a am rămas, noi căpşunarii presei de turism. Cum să ne întoarcem acasă cu mâna goală. S-ar fi rupt de râs Moş Crăciun. Mai călare mai pe jos am înfulecat un sac cu dolăraşi tocmai în oraşul Columbia din SUA. După care am ieşit la drumul mare şi am strigat „Fraţilor, am înviiins!”. Iar americanii ne-au întrebat... pe cine? Le-am răspuns cu mândrie, plini de fudulie, întrebaţi-l pe Mircea Dinescu, el ştie!\r\nHai Sărbători Fericite!

\r\nAmerica este o mare destinaţie turistică dar în ultimii ani a pierdut clienţi! Orice călător visează la o vacanţă undeva în State, dar nu are o imagine clară a complexităţii destinaţiilor oferite! Discutând de-a lungul ultimilor ani aceste aspecte, specialiştii americani au hotărât că Statele Unite au nevoie de o campanie de marketing turistic. Au constatat că, pentru prima dată în istorie, SUA are nevoie de un brand. Aşa a apărut Brand USA, un grup strategic de lucru, cunoscut iniţial sub denumirea de Corporation for Travel Promotion, care a produs şi va avea grijă de brandul global adresat consumatorilor.

LOUVRE HOTELS – în pas de defilare spre pieţele ţintă
\r\nDupă unirea Louvre Hotels cu Golden Tulip în aprilie 2011, specialiştii noului grup hotelier Louvre plănuiesc o campanie de noutăţi, demnă de o strategie militară: cucerirea pieţelor din Europa Centrală şi de Est.

MALDIVE – Caracterul minunat al oamenilor
\r\nLuna aceasta a fost anunţat noul brand al Republicii Maldive. Sub sloganul “Always natural” imaginea creată de către specialiştii în comunicare este cea a unei destinaţii care îşi bazează creşterea, viitorul şi dezvoltarea pe natură şi produse cât mai naturale. Noul brand înglobează toate domeniile, nu numai turismul, iar emblema sa este o amprentă în nuanţe de verde, formată din siluete de animale.\"\r\n\r\nAtât sloganul cât şi logo-ul au fost create în aşa fel încât să sublinieze extraordinara frumuseţe a naturii din Maldive, frumuseţe pe care toate tipurile de turişti o consideră principalul motiv pentru a ne vizita ţara\" – a spus Thoyyib Mohamed, ministru al turismului, artelor şi culturii. David Keen, preşedintele companiei QUO Keen, creatoarea brandului, a subliniat că “am creat un brand care vorbeşte atât despre caracterul minunat al oamenilor din Maldive dar şi despre eforturile continue pentru o dezvoltare susţinută în toate industriile.”\r\n\r\n\r\n
Ce spune TripAdvisor ?
\r\nEuropa continuă să fie o destinaţie atractivă pentru turişti americani. De ce vin aceştia pe vechiul continent şi care sunt ratele lor de aşteptare au încercat să afle specialiştii de la TripAdvisor.\r\nConform unui studiu anual de călătorii în Europa - la care au participat 1.200 de persoane -, 60% dintre turişti plănuiesc să sosească aici în viitoarele 12 luni. Aceasta marchează o creştere a interesului cu circa 10% în comparaţie cu anul 2009. 54% din cei intervievaţi au declarat că intenţionează să călătorească în perioada septembrie-octombrie şi doar 38% că vor vizita Europa în perioada mai-iunie.\r\n\r\nCele mai căutate destinaţii sunt Londra, Paris, Roma, Barcelona şi Madrid, iar oraşele care înregistrează creşteri sunt Istanbul, Zurich, Sevilla, Atena şi Copenhaga. Un punct forte al europenilor îl constituie gastronomia, 58% dintre respondenţi apreciind că bucătăria vechiului continent este mai bună. Despre transportul public european, 90% din turiştii americani au spus că este superior celui american.\r\n\r\nÎn privinţa serviciilor, 30% consideră că sunt mai proaste în Europa. Referindu-se la atracţiile turistice, 57% dintre călători au subliniat că în Europa sunt mult mai multe lucruri de vizitat. În ceea ce priveşte standardele de cazare 36% dintre intervievaţi consideră că hotelurile prezintă în Europa un nivel inferior, comparativ cu cele din Statele Unite.\r\nGrupaj de SÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n\r\n
Cele mai tari hoteluri\r\n\r\nAmericanii s-au asigurat cel puţin un sezon că au cel mai mare hotel din lume: Venetian din Las Vegas. Renovarea acestuia s-a încheiat recent. Cu cele 7.000 de camere el deţine supremaţia mondială, surclasând hotelul Asia Asia, cu 6.500 de camere din Dubailand. Venetian operează cu două dintre cele mai renumite francize de restaurante din lume şi oferă peste 50 de restaurante, baruri, cafenele, săli de evenimente şi un teatru. În acelaşi timp singaporezii au detronat Emirates Palace Hotel din Abu Dhabi, din topului celor mai scumpe hoteluri. Ei au inaugurat anul trecut Marina Bay Sands Hotel. Acesta a presupus o investiţie de aproape 6 miliarde de dolari. Preţul celei mai ieftine camere (din cele 2.500) porneşte de la 520 de dolari şi trece de 15.000 de dolari pentru un apartament, pe noapte. Printre principalele atracţii ale hotelului se numără piscina de la etajul 55, lungă de 200 metri, considerată a fi cea mai mare piscină descoperită din lume aflată la această înălţime. Circa 10.000 de angajaţi asigură serviciile oferite de hotel.

VARŞOVIA - un posibil vis fotbalistic de vară\r\nÎn iunie anul viitor, Polonia şi Ucraina vor găzdui turneul final al Campionatului European de Fotbal, care va atrage şi spectatori din România. Pentru cei care vor ajunge la EURO 2012, dar nu numai pentru ei, vă sugerăm o posibilă destinaţie de vacanţă – Varşovia.
\r\n
@ NIMIC DESPRE... TORTUL DE NUNTĂ RUSESC. Pregătirile pentru eveniment au început de mult timp, fiind vizibile pentru cei care au vizitat în cursul acestui an capitala Poloniei. Un banner imens care anunţă evenimentul sportiv se află pe o clădire-simbol a Varşoviei din perioada comunistă, Palatul Culturii şi Ştiinţei. Copie, ca şi Casa Presei din Bucureşti, a Universităţii de stat din Moscova, clădirea a fost ridicată între 1952 - 1955, fiind un dar din partea Uniunii Sovietice. Cu 231 de metri, 3288 de camere şi 42 de etaje, rămâne cea mai înaltă construcţie din Polonia şi a 8-a în topul celor mai înalte din Uniunea Europeană. De la terasa etajului 30 a clădirii care îndeplineşte rolul de centru de expoziţii, spaţii de birouri şi centru cultural, având muzee, cinematografe, teatre şi săli de concerte, ba chiar şi o universitate, se poate admira o panoramă unică a Varşoviei. Polonezii au urât-o pentru că o considerau un simbol al dominaţiei sovietice. Clădirea a fost botezată „Pekin” cu referire la capitala Chinei, de la acronimul PkiN (Palac Kultury I Nauki), dar i s-a mai spus „seringa lui Stalin” sau “tortul de nuntă rusesc”.
@ SUS INIMILE CU... CHOPIN. Dacă aţi ajuns în această zonă rezervaţi-vă trei, patru ore pentru a vizita centrul istoric al capitalei Poloniei. Într-un sfert de oră puteţi ajunge pe „Krakowskie Przedmiescie”, strada care ne duce spre centrul istoric al Varşoviei, căreia i se spune şi „Drumul Regal”. Dacă ai la îndemână o hartă a capitalei, este imposibil să te rătăceşti. În faţa clădirii Academiei de Ştiinţe a Poloniei, se poate observa statuia astronomului şi matematicianului Nicolaus Copernicus 1473-1543), cel care susţinea că soarele este în centrul Universului şi că Pământul se roteşte în jurul lui. Pe pavajul din jurul statuii sunt trasate orbitele planetelor din sistemul nostru solar. Nu le-am putut admira în ansamblu pentru că tocmai atunci o orchestră alcătuită din tineri, studenţi la conservator, se pregăteau de un concert. Nu am avut niciun regret ascultându-i!\r\nDe fapt, muzica clasică şi spiritul lui Frederic Chopin se simt peste tot. La mică distanţă de statuia lui Copernic se află Biserica Sfintei Cruci, unde este depusă inima celebrului compozitor polonez. Pe frontispiciul din faţa bisericii întâlnim inscripţia „SVRSVM CORDA” (Sus inimile), un pasaj din liturghia catolică, la care credincioşii răspund „Habemus ad Dominum” (Le avem la Domnul). Acesta este un fapt care evidenţiază locul special în care a fost depusă inima marelui muzician înmormântat la Paris. Dacă mergeţi pe strada ce duce spre centrul istoric, să nu credeţi că doar vi se pare că auziţi muzica lui Chopin. Băncile aflate pe această stradă au nu numai rolul de a vă informa unde vă aflaţi şi ce obiective sunt în jur. Ele încorporează boxe care difuzează discret acorduri din creaţiile lui Chopin.\r\n
@ SĂ DAI MÂNA CU O STATUIE. Pe aceeaşi parte cu Biserica Sfintei Cruci, e amplasat Palatul Czapski care adăposteşte astăzi Academia de Arte Frumoase, o clădire unde Chopin şi-a petrecut ultimii ani înainte de a pleca din Polonia şi de a se stabili în Franţa. Pe partea opusă se află poarta de intrare în Universitatea din Varşovia, cu clădiri frumoase, cu spaţii largi şi cu o statuie aflată pe o bancă, cu mâna dreaptă întinsă şi uşor tocită. Este în această stare de la multe generaţii de studenţi ce au dat mână cu... statuia. Superstiţia spune că e bine să faci acest lucru pentru că vei avea şanse mai mari la examene. Cine a fost student înţelege rostul unei mâini întinse înainte de întâlnirea cu profesorii încruntaţi.
\r\n@ SE PUTEA FĂRĂ MARLENE DIETRICH ! Mergem pe „Drumul Regal” şi ne oprim pentru a admira arhitectura Art Nouveau a hotelului Le Meridien Bristol, inaugurat în noiembrie 1901 şi considerat cel mai bun hotel din Varşovia, poate chiar din Polonia. Are o istorie tumultoasă, care se împleteşte cu cea a Varşoviei. Aici au stat compozitorii Edward Grieg şi Richard Strauss, au înnoptat Pablo Picasso, Artur Rubinstein, Marlene Dietrich. În timpul Insurecţiei poloneze din vara anului 1944, din ordinul lui Hitler, hotelul trebuia pus la pământ aşa cum s-a întâmplat cu aproape toate clădirile din centrul istoric, însă, în mod norocos, a rămas în picioare. Reparat după război, în 1952 a fost preluat de Orbis, Agenţia turistică de stat şi a devenit un loc destinat în exclusivitate turiştilor străini. În timp s-a degradat, iar în 1981 chiar a fost închis, pentru ca peste doar 10 ani să ajungă o ruină. Renovat, în aprilie 1993 hotelul a fost redeschis oficial, aici fiind cazaţi şefii de stat şi de guverne aflaţi în vizită în Polonia, dar şi alte personalităţi. În apartamentul prezidenţial de astăzi a locuit Ignac Paderewski, pianistul genial care a devenit şi primul premier al Poloniei de după primul război mondial. Aici au stat locuit şi Jacques Chirac, Helmut Kohl, Richard Nixon, Regina Elisabeta a II-a sau George Bush, nu întâmplător deoarece clădirea vecină, Palatul Radziwill, este sediul Preşedinţiei Poloniei. Chiar dacă nu am fost un oaspete de înalt nivel, am fost bine tratat la „Bristol” unde, imediat ce m-am prezentat la recepţie pentru formalităţile de cazare, am primit un plic consistent cu ghiduri şi hărţi ale Varşoviei şi împrejurimilor. Să te tot documentezi şi orientezi printre atracţiile turistice.
\r\n@ LOCUL UNDE PESCARII AU LĂSAT SIRENA. Mai sunt multe clădirile importante pe „Drumul Regal”. Vă lăsăm plăcerea să le descoperiţi singuri până a ajunge în Piaţa Zamkowy, unde se află columna regelui Zygmunt al III-lea Waza, rege al Poloniei şi Mare Duce al Lituaniei între 1587 şi 1632, dar şi rege al Suediei. Aici se află Castelul regal, reşedinţa regilor Poloniei începând din 1596, ca urmare a deciziei regelui Zygmunt al II-lea de a muta aici capitala după incendiul reşedinţei din Cracovia. Oraşul vechi şi acest castel distrus în al doilea război mondial şi reconstruit în 1971 sunt incluse, începând din 1980, în patrimoniul cultural mondial UNESCO. Castelul regal este amenajat ca muzeu de artă, dar tinde să devină un spaţiu pentru concerte de muzică de cameră. Tot în Piaţa Zamkowy, kilometrul zero al Varşoviei, este un punct de belvedere de unde puteţi admira silueta stadionului care, în iunie 2012, va găzdui una dintre semifinalele lui Euro 2012. În perioada verii, un minicar vă poate purta prin centrul vechi într-un tur de jumătate de oră. Străbătând străzile înguste din centrul istoric, ajungeţi în piaţa unde se află „Sirena” - simbolul oraşului Varşovia. Există multe locuri cu încărcătură istorică şi multe legende, însă cea despre Sirena din Varşovia mi se pare importantă.Potrivit legendei, o sirenă care înota în mare s-a oprit pe malul Vistulei, lângă oraşul vechi, ca să se odihnească. I-a plăcut locul şi s-a hotărât să rămână aici. Pescari au observat ceva care le încurca plasele de pescuit şi elibera peştii prinşi. Deşi intenţia lor iniţială a fost de a o prinde, pescarii s-au îndrăgostit de ea şi de muzica pe care o cânta. Mai târziu, un negustor bogat a reuşit să prindă sirena şi să o închidă într-o colibă de lemn. Auzind plânsul sirenei, un tânăr pescar a eliberat-o. Atunci sirena le-a promis pescarilor că-i va ajuta şi-i va ocroti ori de câte ori vor avea nevoie. De atunci, sirena, înarmată cu sabie şi scut e gata să apere Varşovia atât de greu încercată şi pe locuitorii săi.\r\nDe reţinut: toate clădirile din centrul vechi sunt refăcute. Aici sunt o mulţime de magazine cu suveniruri, dar vă puteţi orienta şi spre specialităţi precum turta dulce trasă în ciocolată sau prune trase în ciocolată. Polonezii au tradiţie în fabricarea de dulciuri, iar o dovadă este clădirea fabricii de ciocolată, care a funcţionat începând de la mijlocul secolului al 19-lea. Dacă aţi obosit după acest tur de oraş, vă puteţi aşeza la o terasă pentru o cafea sau o bere. Zlotul are aceeaşi paritate cu leul, doar că preţurile sunt puţin mai mari. O halbă de bere vă poate costa, de exemplu, 9 zloţi, însă în locul în care am intrat, şi pentru a mânca ceva, începând cu a doua bere plăteai doar 7 zloţi. O idee bună, un truc turistic care umple localul în fiecare zi!

UNESCO – de la arheologie la fotbal
\r\nSuntem obişnuiţi să găsim simbolul patrimoniului UNESCO afişat pe clădiri, la intrarea în situri arheologice sau alături de descrierea unor obective turistice, în ghiduri şi chiar pe tricourile echipelor de fotbal. A devenit o marcă, un garant al calităţii. Organizaţia selectează însă, anual, şi minuni naturale ale globului. Anul trecut a adus în atenţia publicului 8 destinaţii pentru aventură, din Tanzania, China, Rusia ori Pacific.\r\n\r\nÎn peşterile preistorice ale lui Yagul şi Mitla (Oaxaca, la 550 km de Mexico City), sunt picturi rupestre, dar s-au găsit seminţe de cucurbitacee, vechi de peste 10.000 de ani. Regiunea Danxia din China are particularitatea de a afişa un peisaj selenar, colorat în zeci de nuanţe. Insulele Phoenix reprezintă cea mai mare regiune marină protejată din lume (10.000 km NV de Insulele Fiji din Pacificul de Sud). Insulele Reunion (Oceanul Indian) oferă peisajul conurilor vulcanice iar zona Papahanaumokuakea (NV de Hawaii) adaposteşte recifuri de corali cu specii rare de vieţuitoare marine.\r\n\r\nDacă vreţi mai mult de atât puteţi încerca Zona de conservare Ngorongoro din Tanzania. Inclusă în patrimoniul UNESCO în 1979 - este considerată locul în care au fost descoperiţi pentru prima dată stramoşii omului. Lista se încheie cu Rezervaţia Naturala de Stat Putoransky din Rusia (100 km Nord de Cercul Arctic) şi Podişurile Centrale din Sri Lanka, regiuni ce adăpostesc animale pe cale de dispariţie. În ultimii 28 de ani UNESCO a identificat în jur de 180 de minuni naturale ale lumii, în 77 de ţări.','SUA cu bratele deschise','','inherit','open','open','','918-revision-3','','','2012-01-06 09:54:43','2012-01-06 07:54:43','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2012/01/06/918-revision-3/',0,'revision','',0),(981,1,'2012-01-06 10:21:41','2012-01-06 08:21:41','','Aventura 019','','inherit','open','open','','aventura-019','','','2012-01-06 10:21:41','2012-01-06 08:21:41','',940,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Aventura-019.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(982,1,'2012-01-06 10:21:43','2012-01-06 08:21:43','','Aventura 047','','inherit','open','open','','aventura-047','','','2012-01-06 10:21:43','2012-01-06 08:21:43','',940,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Aventura-047.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(983,1,'2012-01-06 10:21:45','2012-01-06 08:21:45','','Aventura 115','','inherit','open','open','','aventura-115','','','2012-01-06 10:21:45','2012-01-06 08:21:45','',940,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Aventura-115.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(984,1,'2012-01-06 10:21:47','2012-01-06 08:21:47','','Aventura 190','','inherit','open','open','','aventura-190','','','2012-01-06 10:21:47','2012-01-06 08:21:47','',940,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Aventura-190.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(985,1,'2012-01-06 10:21:49','2012-01-06 08:21:49','','Aventura 211','','inherit','open','open','','aventura-211','','','2012-01-06 10:21:49','2012-01-06 08:21:49','',940,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Aventura-211.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(986,1,'2012-01-06 10:21:51','2012-01-06 08:21:51','','Aventura 309','','inherit','open','open','','aventura-309','','','2012-01-06 10:21:51','2012-01-06 08:21:51','',940,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Aventura-309.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(987,1,'2012-01-06 10:21:53','2012-01-06 08:21:53','','Aventura 326','','inherit','open','open','','aventura-326','','','2012-01-06 10:21:53','2012-01-06 08:21:53','',940,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Aventura-326.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(988,1,'2012-01-06 09:58:54','2012-01-06 07:58:54','O tură de aventură printre... trifoi şi tigăi
Nu mai e nicio îndoială. Din ce în ce mai mulţi turişti români, individuali ori companii, devin „dependenţi” de turismul de aventură. Nu e obligatoriu să fie tineri. Categoria care aleargă după asemenea programe are următoarea tipologie: dinamici, căutători de pachete alternative turismului clasic, consumatori de experienţe noi. Frumoasă dependenţă.
\r\n@ PIONIERI ÎN JUNGLA MONTANĂ. La una dintre aventuri am participat şi noi într-un program organizat în zona Azuga de către firma Global Events Production, prin subsidiara sa specializată JW Escapade. Am pornit din Azuga cu o caravană de maşini echipate special pentru a intra în inima unei naturi neatinse, plină de capcane şi de drumuri pe care nu a mai trecut cineva înainte noastră. Unul dintre echipaje este condus chiar de Petruţ Pătrăşcoiu, directorul general al grupului de travel amintit, camaradul nostru de suspans şi de schimbat viteze în pantă, la vale sau la deal. Peisajul, mirific pentru necunoscători, furnizează suficiente capcane pentru cei dornici să trăiască la maxim o experienţă în care stomacul ţi se urcă în gât, adrenalina creşte peste nivelul la care te aşteptai iar partenerii de drum se dovedesc a fi prieteni de... suferinţă. Nu e vorba de o suferinţă medicală ci turistică. După câţiva kilometri ne întâlnim cu un copac prăbuşit chiar pe mijlocul drumului. Aventura îşi arată colţii. Acum descoperim ce înseamnă să fim o echipă. Punem mână de la mână şi cu forţă şi opinteli reuşim să îndepărtăm obstacolul. N-a fost nimic programat. Evenimentul este trecut la obiective realizate din mers. Jeepul Wrangler ne poartă pe Valea Azugii, drum dumnezeiesc, măturat de razele soarelui de iarnă. Urcăm spre Cabana Trifoiului, apoi spre Vârful Tigăile, la peste 1500 de metri. Ajungem la Cabana Susai, cândva un loc de tabere sportive şi popas al montaniarzilor. Azi lucrurile s-au schimbat. Un investitor român a făcut ca acest obiectiv să-şi schimbe faţa. S-au băgat bani şi se vede. Cabana Susai arată ca un hotel confortabil, dublat de facilităţi pe care nu le bănuieşti în vârf de munte. Restaurant şi terase primitoare, complex de agrement cu piscină şi jacuzzi. Un singur lucru a rămas neschimbat. Anunţul de la uşa de intrare. El semnalează să nu vă îndepărtaţi de hotel noaptea pentru că e posibil să vă întâlniţi cu familii de urşi, plecate şi ele probabil într-un program turistic eco. Dacă o faceţi e pe riscul dumneavoastră. De aici timp de câteva ore tăiem crestele munţilor care ne furnizează panorame fabuloase, inedite.
@ NICIO SURPRIZĂ NU VINE SINGURĂ. Când nu mai aveam vreo speranţă şi ne gândeam la reîntoarcere, într-o poiană în care am avut senzaţia că putem să atingem cerul cu mâna, cade ca din întâmplare o altă supriză. Un cort special amenajat şi un grătar pe care sfârâiau la greu friptane, mititei, cărnăciori. Alături s-a potrivit o tocăniţă de cartofi şi murături pe cinste. Pentru vegetarieni, dar cine a rezistat tentaţiilor, legumele la grătar, s-au dovedit la fel de gustoase. Despre lăsarea la lichide – adică ţuică, vodcă şi vin fiert – se întelege cum au stat lucrurile. Toate au fost preparate de personalul firmei JW Escapade, care are sediul operaţional chiar in Azuga. Nu sunt maeştri bucătari galonaţi dar ceea ce fac, fac bine şi cu respectul faţă de dorinţele turistului captivat de aventură, dispus să trăiască în vârf de munte şi o supriză gastronomică tradiţională. În fapt este vorba de o caravană care porneşte înainte turiştilor, campează, şi asigură la cerere toate produsele preparate ca la mama acasă. Să nu vă imaginaţi că rămâne mizerie în urma acestor oameni, adevăraţi profesionişti ai muntelui. Totul se strânge după plecarea turiştilor spre bază, adică la Azuga, iar poiana respectivă rămâne curată ca la începutul lumii. Din natură am venit şi în natură ne vom întoarce. Pare să fie prima regulă a celor care fac turism de aventură – dacă respecţi natura şi ea te respectă pe tine.
@ STAŢI, ÎNCĂ N-AŢI SCĂPAT. Totul s-a terminat cu bine. Când credeam că am scăpat cu viaţă am fost chemaţi la o partidă de vopsit. Nu, să nu credeţi că e vorba de cosmetică. Pur şi simplu, am fost chemaţi, cu mic cu mare la Escapade Fun Park, zona de aventură amenajată între pârtia de la Azuga şi hotelul de cinci stele Lux Garden. Un hotel rafinat pe care merită să-l testaţi. Merită să vă încumetaţi într-o partidă de paintball în care, oricâte deprinderi aţi avea, nu veţi scăpa cu... faţa curată. Şi la propriu şi la figurat. Şi această aventură are toate datele să satisfacă turiştii doritori de războaie imaginare. Cum majoritatea tinerilor n-au pus mâna pe o puşcă în viaţa lor, partidele colorate de vânătoare, sunt precedate de un instructaj sever şi serios. Asta ca să fie clar. Când tragi sau vin spre tine cam 100 de bile colorate, pe post de gloanţe, trebuie să şti cum să le faci faţă. Am luat-o şi noi în plin, dar alţii au ieşit şi mai pictaţi. Dacă asta e o satisfacţie. O parte din însoţitori au fost mai prudenţi. S-au apucat de tras cu arcul dar nici acolo nu le-a fost mai uşor. Încă o tură de aventură demnă de trăit.
\r\n@ POATE FI ACESTA UN BUSINESS DE TURISM? În mod sigur da – este de părere managerul Pătruţ Pătrăşcoiu. „Timp de ani de zile ne-am ocupat prin Global Events Production, de programe şi pachete turistice clasice. Am dezvoltat foarte mult segmentul de evenimente şi, în urma unor studii de piaţă, am constatat că relaţia travel agent-hotelier, este încă departe de a se baza pe respect şi seriozitate. În domeniu evenimentelor au aparut treptat cereri de programe tematice. Cum era de aşteptat, din zona corporate pentru început. Atunci ne-am gândit să dezvoltăm petrecerile şi programele tematice. După ce au loc conferinţe ori simpozioane oamenii doresc să iasă la aer liber, să trăiască şi experienţe memorabile. Turismul de aventură le procura asemenea satisfacţii. Firma pe care o conduc furnizează toată logistica necesară cu care ne deplasăm pe toată Valea Prahovei, la Poiana Braşov, în vecinătăţile Bucureştiului, oriunde doreşte clientul şi este posibil să derulăm şi programe tematice. Petrecerile au denumiri diverse care corespund cu tematicile aferente. De la Western Party, Vampire Party, French Cabaret până la Medieval Party, Blue Deep Party sau Brazilian Fiesta”.\r\nDeseori pachetele turistice oferite includ o masă la Cramele Halewood de la Azuga unde poţi trăi o nouă aventură, de data aceasta gastronomică printre sticle pline cu un vin ori un spumant de calitate. Nu rataţi nici această ocazie.

După care am ieşit la drumul mare şi am strigat „Fraţilor, am înviiins!”. Iar americanii ne-au întrebat... pe cine?

\r\nAmerica este o mare destinaţie turistică dar în ultimii ani a pierdut clienţi! Orice călător visează la o vacanţă undeva în State, dar nu are o imagine clară a complexităţii destinaţiilor oferite! Discutând de-a lungul ultimilor ani aceste aspecte, specialiştii americani au hotărât că Statele Unite au nevoie de o campanie de marketing turistic. Au constatat că, pentru prima dată în istorie, SUA are nevoie de un brand. Aşa a apărut Brand USA, un grup strategic de lucru, cunoscut iniţial sub denumirea de Corporation for Travel Promotion, care a produs şi va avea grijă de brandul global adresat consumatorilor.

MALDIVE – Caracterul minunat al oamenilor
\r\nLuna aceasta a fost anunţat noul brand al Republicii Maldive. Sub sloganul “Always natural” imaginea creată de către specialiştii în comunicare este cea a unei destinaţii care îşi bazează creşterea, viitorul şi dezvoltarea pe natură şi produse cât mai naturale. Noul brand înglobează toate domeniile, nu numai turismul, iar emblema sa este o amprentă în nuanţe de verde, formată din siluete de animale.\"\r\n\r\nAtât sloganul cât şi logo-ul au fost create în aşa fel încât să sublinieze extraordinara frumuseţe a naturii din Maldive, frumuseţe pe care toate tipurile de turişti o consideră principalul motiv pentru a ne vizita ţara\" – a spus Thoyyib Mohamed, ministru al turismului, artelor şi culturii. David Keen, preşedintele companiei QUO Keen, creatoarea brandului, a subliniat că “am creat un brand care vorbeşte atât despre caracterul minunat al oamenilor din Maldive dar şi despre eforturile continue pentru o dezvoltare susţinută în toate industriile.”\r\n\r\n\r\n
Ce spune TripAdvisor ?
\r\nEuropa continuă să fie o destinaţie atractivă pentru turişti americani. De ce vin aceştia pe vechiul continent şi care sunt ratele lor de aşteptare au încercat să afle specialiştii de la TripAdvisor.\r\nConform unui studiu anual de călătorii în Europa - la care au participat 1.200 de persoane -, 60% dintre turişti plănuiesc să sosească aici în viitoarele 12 luni. Aceasta marchează o creştere a interesului cu circa 10% în comparaţie cu anul 2009. 54% din cei intervievaţi au declarat că intenţionează să călătorească în perioada septembrie-octombrie şi doar 38% că vor vizita Europa în perioada mai-iunie.\r\n\r\nCele mai căutate destinaţii sunt Londra, Paris, Roma, Barcelona şi Madrid, iar oraşele care înregistrează creşteri sunt Istanbul, Zurich, Sevilla, Atena şi Copenhaga. Un punct forte al europenilor îl constituie gastronomia, 58% dintre respondenţi apreciind că bucătăria vechiului continent este mai bună. Despre transportul public european, 90% din turiştii americani au spus că este superior celui american.\r\n\r\nÎn privinţa serviciilor, 30% consideră că sunt mai proaste în Europa. Referindu-se la atracţiile turistice, 57% dintre călători au subliniat că în Europa sunt mult mai multe lucruri de vizitat. În ceea ce priveşte standardele de cazare 36% dintre intervievaţi consideră că hotelurile prezintă în Europa un nivel inferior, comparativ cu cele din Statele Unite.\r\nGrupaj de SÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n\r\n
Cele mai tari hoteluri\r\n\r\nAmericanii s-au asigurat cel puţin un sezon că au cel mai mare hotel din lume: Venetian din Las Vegas. Renovarea acestuia s-a încheiat recent. Cu cele 7.000 de camere el deţine supremaţia mondială, surclasând hotelul Asia Asia, cu 6.500 de camere din Dubailand. Venetian operează cu două dintre cele mai renumite francize de restaurante din lume şi oferă peste 50 de restaurante, baruri, cafenele, săli de evenimente şi un teatru. În acelaşi timp singaporezii au detronat Emirates Palace Hotel din Abu Dhabi, din topului celor mai scumpe hoteluri. Ei au inaugurat anul trecut Marina Bay Sands Hotel. Acesta a presupus o investiţie de aproape 6 miliarde de dolari. Preţul celei mai ieftine camere (din cele 2.500) porneşte de la 520 de dolari şi trece de 15.000 de dolari pentru un apartament, pe noapte. Printre principalele atracţii ale hotelului se numără piscina de la etajul 55, lungă de 200 metri, considerată a fi cea mai mare piscină descoperită din lume aflată la această înălţime. Circa 10.000 de angajaţi asigură serviciile oferite de hotel.

VARŞOVIA - un posibil vis fotbalistic de vară\r\nÎn iunie anul viitor, Polonia şi Ucraina vor găzdui turneul final al Campionatului European de Fotbal, care va atrage şi spectatori din România. Pentru cei care vor ajunge la EURO 2012, dar nu numai pentru ei, vă sugerăm o posibilă destinaţie de vacanţă – Varşovia.
\r\n
@ NIMIC DESPRE... TORTUL DE NUNTĂ RUSESC. Pregătirile pentru eveniment au început de mult timp, fiind vizibile pentru cei care au vizitat în cursul acestui an capitala Poloniei. Un banner imens care anunţă evenimentul sportiv se află pe o clădire-simbol a Varşoviei din perioada comunistă, Palatul Culturii şi Ştiinţei. Copie, ca şi Casa Presei din Bucureşti, a Universităţii de stat din Moscova, clădirea a fost ridicată între 1952 - 1955, fiind un dar din partea Uniunii Sovietice. Cu 231 de metri, 3288 de camere şi 42 de etaje, rămâne cea mai înaltă construcţie din Polonia şi a 8-a în topul celor mai înalte din Uniunea Europeană. De la terasa etajului 30 a clădirii care îndeplineşte rolul de centru de expoziţii, spaţii de birouri şi centru cultural, având muzee, cinematografe, teatre şi săli de concerte, ba chiar şi o universitate, se poate admira o panoramă unică a Varşoviei. Polonezii au urât-o pentru că o considerau un simbol al dominaţiei sovietice. Clădirea a fost botezată „Pekin” cu referire la capitala Chinei, de la acronimul PkiN (Palac Kultury I Nauki), dar i s-a mai spus „seringa lui Stalin” sau “tortul de nuntă rusesc”.
@ SUS INIMILE CU... CHOPIN. Dacă aţi ajuns în această zonă rezervaţi-vă trei, patru ore pentru a vizita centrul istoric al capitalei Poloniei. Într-un sfert de oră puteţi ajunge pe „Krakowskie Przedmiescie”, strada care ne duce spre centrul istoric al Varşoviei, căreia i se spune şi „Drumul Regal”. Dacă ai la îndemână o hartă a capitalei, este imposibil să te rătăceşti. În faţa clădirii Academiei de Ştiinţe a Poloniei, se poate observa statuia astronomului şi matematicianului Nicolaus Copernicus 1473-1543), cel care susţinea că soarele este în centrul Universului şi că Pământul se roteşte în jurul lui. Pe pavajul din jurul statuii sunt trasate orbitele planetelor din sistemul nostru solar. Nu le-am putut admira în ansamblu pentru că tocmai atunci o orchestră alcătuită din tineri, studenţi la conservator, se pregăteau de un concert. Nu am avut niciun regret ascultându-i!\r\nDe fapt, muzica clasică şi spiritul lui Frederic Chopin se simt peste tot. La mică distanţă de statuia lui Copernic se află Biserica Sfintei Cruci, unde este depusă inima celebrului compozitor polonez. Pe frontispiciul din faţa bisericii întâlnim inscripţia „SVRSVM CORDA” (Sus inimile), un pasaj din liturghia catolică, la care credincioşii răspund „Habemus ad Dominum” (Le avem la Domnul). Acesta este un fapt care evidenţiază locul special în care a fost depusă inima marelui muzician înmormântat la Paris. Dacă mergeţi pe strada ce duce spre centrul istoric, să nu credeţi că doar vi se pare că auziţi muzica lui Chopin. Băncile aflate pe această stradă au nu numai rolul de a vă informa unde vă aflaţi şi ce obiective sunt în jur. Ele încorporează boxe care difuzează discret acorduri din creaţiile lui Chopin.\r\n \r\n
@ SĂ DAI MÂNA CU O STATUIE. Pe aceeaşi parte cu Biserica Sfintei Cruci, e amplasat Palatul Czapski care adăposteşte astăzi Academia de Arte Frumoase, o clădire unde Chopin şi-a petrecut ultimii ani înainte de a pleca din Polonia şi de a se stabili în Franţa. Pe partea opusă se află poarta de intrare în Universitatea din Varşovia, cu clădiri frumoase, cu spaţii largi şi cu o statuie aflată pe o bancă, cu mâna dreaptă întinsă şi uşor tocită. Este în această stare de la multe generaţii de studenţi ce au dat mână cu... statuia. Superstiţia spune că e bine să faci acest lucru pentru că vei avea şanse mai mari la examene. Cine a fost student înţelege rostul unei mâini întinse înainte de întâlnirea cu profesorii încruntaţi.
@ SE PUTEA FĂRĂ MARLENE DIETRICH ! Mergem pe „Drumul Regal” şi ne oprim pentru a admira arhitectura Art Nouveau a hotelului Le Meridien Bristol, inaugurat în noiembrie 1901 şi considerat cel mai bun hotel din Varşovia, poate chiar din Polonia. Are o istorie tumultoasă, care se împleteşte cu cea a Varşoviei. Aici au stat compozitorii Edward Grieg şi Richard Strauss, au înnoptat Pablo Picasso, Artur Rubinstein, Marlene Dietrich. În timpul Insurecţiei poloneze din vara anului 1944, din ordinul lui Hitler, hotelul trebuia pus la pământ aşa cum s-a întâmplat cu aproape toate clădirile din centrul istoric, însă, în mod norocos, a rămas în picioare. Reparat după război, în 1952 a fost preluat de Orbis, Agenţia turistică de stat şi a devenit un loc destinat în exclusivitate turiştilor străini. În timp s-a degradat, iar în 1981 chiar a fost închis, pentru ca peste doar 10 ani să ajungă o ruină. Renovat, în aprilie 1993 hotelul a fost redeschis oficial, aici fiind cazaţi şefii de stat şi de guverne aflaţi în vizită în Polonia, dar şi alte personalităţi. În apartamentul prezidenţial de astăzi a locuit Ignac Paderewski, pianistul genial care a devenit şi primul premier al Poloniei de după primul război mondial. Aici au stat locuit şi Jacques Chirac, Helmut Kohl, Richard Nixon, Regina Elisabeta a II-a sau George Bush, nu întâmplător deoarece clădirea vecină, Palatul Radziwill, este sediul Preşedinţiei Poloniei. Chiar dacă nu am fost un oaspete de înalt nivel, am fost bine tratat la „Bristol” unde, imediat ce m-am prezentat la recepţie pentru formalităţile de cazare, am primit un plic consistent cu ghiduri şi hărţi ale Varşoviei şi împrejurimilor. Să te tot documentezi şi orientezi printre atracţiile turistice.
\r\n@ LOCUL UNDE PESCARII AU LĂSAT SIRENA. Mai sunt multe clădirile importante pe „Drumul Regal”. Vă lăsăm plăcerea să le descoperiţi singuri până a ajunge în Piaţa Zamkowy, unde se află columna regelui Zygmunt al III-lea Waza, rege al Poloniei şi Mare Duce al Lituaniei între 1587 şi 1632, dar şi rege al Suediei. Aici se află Castelul regal, reşedinţa regilor Poloniei începând din 1596, ca urmare a deciziei regelui Zygmunt al II-lea de a muta aici capitala după incendiul reşedinţei din Cracovia. Oraşul vechi şi acest castel distrus în al doilea război mondial şi reconstruit în 1971 sunt incluse, începând din 1980, în patrimoniul cultural mondial UNESCO. Castelul regal este amenajat ca muzeu de artă, dar tinde să devină un spaţiu pentru concerte de muzică de cameră. Tot în Piaţa Zamkowy, kilometrul zero al Varşoviei, este un punct de belvedere de unde puteţi admira silueta stadionului care, în iunie 2012, va găzdui una dintre semifinalele lui Euro 2012. În perioada verii, un minicar vă poate purta prin centrul vechi într-un tur de jumătate de oră. Străbătând străzile înguste din centrul istoric, ajungeţi în piaţa unde se află „Sirena” - simbolul oraşului Varşovia. Există multe locuri cu încărcătură istorică şi multe legende, însă cea despre Sirena din Varşovia mi se pare importantă.Potrivit legendei, o sirenă care înota în mare s-a oprit pe malul Vistulei, lângă oraşul vechi, ca să se odihnească. I-a plăcut locul şi s-a hotărât să rămână aici. Pescari au observat ceva care le încurca plasele de pescuit şi elibera peştii prinşi. Deşi intenţia lor iniţială a fost de a o prinde, pescarii s-au îndrăgostit de ea şi de muzica pe care o cânta. Mai târziu, un negustor bogat a reuşit să prindă sirena şi să o închidă într-o colibă de lemn. Auzind plânsul sirenei, un tânăr pescar a eliberat-o. Atunci sirena le-a promis pescarilor că-i va ajuta şi-i va ocroti ori de câte ori vor avea nevoie. De atunci, sirena, înarmată cu sabie şi scut e gata să apere Varşovia atât de greu încercată şi pe locuitorii săi.\r\nDe reţinut: toate clădirile din centrul vechi sunt refăcute. Aici sunt o mulţime de magazine cu suveniruri, dar vă puteţi orienta şi spre specialităţi precum turta dulce trasă în ciocolată sau prune trase în ciocolată. Polonezii au tradiţie în fabricarea de dulciuri, iar o dovadă este clădirea fabricii de ciocolată, care a funcţionat începând de la mijlocul secolului al 19-lea. Dacă aţi obosit după acest tur de oraş, vă puteţi aşeza la o terasă pentru o cafea sau o bere. Zlotul are aceeaşi paritate cu leul, doar că preţurile sunt puţin mai mari. O halbă de bere vă poate costa, de exemplu, 9 zloţi, însă în locul în care am intrat, şi pentru a mânca ceva, începând cu a doua bere plăteai doar 7 zloţi. O idee bună, un truc turistic care umple localul în fiecare zi!

UNESCO – de la arheologie la fotbal
\r\nSuntem obişnuiţi să găsim simbolul patrimoniului UNESCO afişat pe clădiri, la intrarea în situri arheologice sau alături de descrierea unor obective turistice, în ghiduri şi chiar pe tricourile echipelor de fotbal. A devenit o marcă, un garant al calităţii. Organizaţia selectează însă, anual, şi minuni naturale ale globului. Anul trecut a adus în atenţia publicului 8 destinaţii pentru aventură, din Tanzania, China, Rusia ori Pacific.\r\n\r\nÎn peşterile preistorice ale lui Yagul şi Mitla (Oaxaca, la 550 km de Mexico City), sunt picturi rupestre, dar s-au găsit seminţe de cucurbitacee, vechi de peste 10.000 de ani. Regiunea Danxia din China are particularitatea de a afişa un peisaj selenar, colorat în zeci de nuanţe. Insulele Phoenix reprezintă cea mai mare regiune marină protejată din lume (10.000 km NV de Insulele Fiji din Pacificul de Sud). Insulele Reunion (Oceanul Indian) oferă peisajul conurilor vulcanice iar zona Papahanaumokuakea (NV de Hawaii) adaposteşte recifuri de corali cu specii rare de vieţuitoare marine.\r\n\r\nDacă vreţi mai mult de atât puteţi încerca Zona de conservare Ngorongoro din Tanzania. Inclusă în patrimoniul UNESCO în 1979 - este considerată locul în care au fost descoperiţi pentru prima dată stramoşii omului. Lista se încheie cu Rezervaţia Naturala de Stat Putoransky din Rusia (100 km Nord de Cercul Arctic) şi Podişurile Centrale din Sri Lanka, regiuni ce adăpostesc animale pe cale de dispariţie. În ultimii 28 de ani UNESCO a identificat în jur de 180 de minuni naturale ale lumii, în 77 de ţări.','SUA cu bratele deschise','','inherit','open','open','','918-revision-4','','','2012-01-06 10:20:25','2012-01-06 08:20:25','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2012/01/06/918-revision-4/',0,'revision','',0),(998,1,'2012-01-06 10:32:45','2012-01-06 08:32:45','','Brera cu mine1','','inherit','open','open','','brera-cu-mine1','','','2012-01-06 10:32:45','2012-01-06 08:32:45','',908,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Brera-cu-mine1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(999,1,'2012-01-06 10:33:10','2012-01-06 08:33:10','','Brera Suc 016','','inherit','open','open','','brera-suc-016','','','2012-01-06 10:33:10','2012-01-06 08:33:10','',908,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Brera-Suc-016.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1000,1,'2012-01-06 09:47:02','2012-01-06 07:47:02','INTERVIU NR. 93-94 (DECEMBRIE 2011- IANUARIE 2012)
\r\nMIGUEL ANGEL BRERA: „Aş fi fost felicitat daca scriam ca Ceauşescu era o canalie, iar România o porcarie !”
Pentru cine nu ştie România deţine azi patru „Pomme D’Or” (Mărul de aur), recunoscute ca fiind echivalentul premiilor Oscar în turism. Ele sunt decernate periodic de către FIJET. Primul a recompensat Bucovina în 1975 şi e păzit cu străşnicie la Mănăstirea Moldoviţa. Celelalte 3, primite în 2009, au premiat zona Mărginimea Sibiului, Rezervaţia Biosferei „Delta Dunării”, respectiv compania aeriană „Blue Air”. Miguel Angel Brera este o legendă vie. În calitate de jurnalist de turism a fost martorul acestor evenimente, şi chiar cel care a adus primul „Măr de Aur” în România. Spaniol get-beget, a fost o lungă perioadă preşedintele FIJET (Federaţia Internaţională a Jurnaliştilor şi Editorilor de Turism) iar azi e preşedintele de onoare al organizaţiei. Profesor de turism la o universitate din Madrid el a publicat numeroase articole şi reportaje despre ţara noastră. De ce iubeşte România de o viaţă ? Aflaţi din acest interviu.
-Domnule Miguel Brera nu vă aflaţi pentru prima dată în România, nu-i aşa ?
-Nu, acum ma aflu la al 53-lea congres internaţional al jurnaliştilor de turism. La o întâlnire, unul dintre organizatorii români de la Clubul Presei de Turism – FIJET România, a rugat sa ridice mâna cine se afla în România pentru prima data şi cine a fost de mai multe ori. Eu eram cel care a fost în ţara dumneavoastră de cele mai multe ori. Nu am o memorie a cifrelor dar prima dată se întâmpla prin 1958-1960, apoi am revenit în epoca lui Ceauşescu. România era pe atunci o minunaţie şi înca este. Era o ţara vesela, avea - ca şi acum - un peisaj foarte variat, pitoresc, monumental, plin de savoare culturala şi istorica. În acei ani, problema era ca viaţa era puţin clandestina, oamenii trebuiau sa-şi fereasca intimitatea. Cum nu aveau multa încredere în tine, nu ţi se dezvaluiau prea mult. În acea epoca, dupa prima mea calatorie, am fost invitat de Guvernul lui Ceauşescu de mai multe ori. De fapt, de fiecare data când doream sa vin în România, eram invitat. Iar asta se întâmpla cel puţin o data pe an. Atunci când ajungeam, la aeroport ma aştepta o maşina, un şofer şi un ghid.
\r\n-Era dificil pentru un jurnalist spaniol de turism sa ajunga în România?
\r\n-Nu, nu era dificil. În general, nu existau probleme. Prima data am venit în interes turistic, cu un grup de turişti spanioli. Nu mă cunoştea nimeni. Existau puţine informaţii despre realitatea politica şi sociala româneasca. Aproape niciuna adevarata şi niciuna importanta. Însa informaţiile turistice erau mai multe şi consistente decât acum. Pentru Spania, România era atunci un loc în care veneam şi despre care existau informaţii minunate. Îmi amintesc un nume: Filipescu. A fost mult timp Ataşat pe Turism al Ambasadei României la Madrid şi a atras atât de multe persoane, încât a umplut România de spanioli. Îmi pare rau că acum spun asta. Dar turismul funcţiona mult mai bine în perioada dictaturii. După Revoluţie am vorbit cu mai mulţi miniştrii de turism, dar ce spun, cu toţi. Discuţiile cu ei mi-au dat impresia ca turismul nu era principala lor preocupare. Cred ca asta a facut ca turismul sa scada.
-Dar în ceea ce priveşte munca de jurnalist, va simţeaţi controlat în perioada Ceauşescu ?\r\n-Restricţia principala exista în privinţa fotografiilor. Erau locuri în care ghidul îmi spunea ca este interzis fotografiatul. În ceea ce priveşte scrisul, eu veneam din Spania, o ţara în care aveam libertatea de a scrie despre orice alta ţara. Nu puteam scrie despre politica spaniola, pentru ca la putere era Franco, însa puteam scrie despre alte ţari. Aş fi fost inclusiv felicitat daca scriam ca Ceauşescu era o canalie, iar România o porcarie. Asta pentru ca Spania era anticomunista, iar relaţiile cu Ceauşescu nu erau bune. Însa, conform statutului FIJET, nu ne este permis sa intervenim în probleme politice. Ci să scriem numai despre turism. Aici e puterea şi valoarea noastră. Aveam obligaţia de a vorbi despre turism, despre peisaje, despre istorie... Asta e minunat, pentru ca dacă ai talent şi cultură mereu vei descoperi o atracţie despre care merită scris. Puteam sa aduc critici de genul unor observaţii care să conducă la creşterea sau modernizarea actului turistic din ţara dumneavoastră. Eram deseori sunat de la ambasada şi ma felicitau pentru cum am scris despre România. Sigur, erau alte timpuri, când oamenii erau mai atenţi şi preţuiau cum se cuvine munca celor din jur. Oriunde sunt întrebat ce loc din Europa îmi place cel mai mult, mereu spun ca după Spania, prima ţară este România, iar din Americi, mereu spun Guatemala.
- Suntem europeni şi ne-am aliniat la preţurile europene! Cum era înainte de anii 1989, era România o destinaţie ieftină ?
\r\n-Da, era şi foarte accesibilă. Deşi era ieftin, nu te simţeai în largul tau mai ales în acel ultim deceniu, apăruseră probleme cu mâncarea. Aveaţi hoteluri foarte bune în zona litoralului, pe care le-am revazut dupa mulţi ani căzute în paragina. Da, era ieftin sa vii în România. Şi calatoria cu TAROM-ul era ieftina. Era o companie buna cu preţuri bune. Prima data am venit cu un pachet de 15 zile, foarte ieftin, care includea România, Bulgaria şi Turcia. Cred ca ar trebui sa se reia o asemenea colaborare. Mai ales că acum Turcia are mult succes, iar pentru voi ar fi foarte interesant sa formaţi pachete turistice împreuna. Eu am spus asta miniştrilor, dar...
- În opinia dumneavoastră, ca jurnalist de turism, care era zona cea mai promovata în acea perioadă? \r\n-Cred ca turiştii se lasau convinşi de ceea ce era mai promovat, iar zonele cele mai promovate erau Marea Neagra şi manastririle din Bucovina. Alte zone dragi mie, cum ar fi Maramureşul, Sapânţa, nu erau cunoscute. Nici zona legata de legenda lui Dracula nu era promovata.
\r\n-Aveţi o relaţie îndelungată cu România. Cum vi se pare că a evoluat ţara noastra pe parcursul ultimelor două decenii ?
\r\n- În regimul anterior aveaţi o ţara de oameni minunaţi şi veseli, dar întristaţi din cauza clandestinitaţii vieţii şi a problemelor cu care se confruntau. Apoi a venit democraţia, care a adus multa bucurie ţarii, a adus libertate. Înainte nu existau atâtea terase, cafenele, restaurante... Toate acestea au aparut odata cu democraţia, însa au aparut lent. Evoluţia nu a fost imediata, ci lenta. Din punct de vedere economic, exista progres, însa nu atât cât ar fi trebuit. De aceea mulţi români emigreaza. Situaţia românilor din Spania nu este atât de buna pe cât au crezut ei, pentru ca acum Spania nu se afla într-o situaţie economica buna. Am români în jurul meu şi îi ajut, pentru ca, de 2-3 ani, acolo a crescut şomajul. Ţara aceasta are nevoie de un impuls. Eu cred sincer ca turismul ar putea reprezenta acel impuls. Daca autoritaţile din turism s-ar gândi ca turismul poate reprezenta o industrie mai importanta ca oricare alta, România ar putea avansa. În alte ţari, turismul este prima industrie. În România nu cred ca exista încă aceasta mentalitate. Aveţi o ministra foarte frumoasa, însa, deşi ea sprijina turismul, pe noi ne-a sprijinit întotdeauna, cred ca şi ea urmeaza puţin filozofia miniştrilor pe care i-am cunoscut anterior. Toţi au fost puţin decişi sa ia taurul de coarne. Trebuie înţeles că micile detalii conteaza pentru un turist. Apoi, s-au îmbunataţit condiţiile de cazare, ofertele turistice, serviciile. Ar trebui facute mai multe cursuri de personal, nu pentru a servi mai bine, pentru ca românii au o atitudine corectă, ci pentru a servi într-un mod profesionist. Apoi mai cred ca România e pregatita sa concureze cu ţari precum Ungaria, Bulgaria, inclusiv Franţa. Însa eu aş insista mult pe aspectul pregatirii personalului. Aveţi ghizi foarte buni, iar acesta este un capitol foarte important. În Spania nu exista ghizi atât de buni.
MONICA TARĂU
\r\nALEXANDRU CRĂIUŢ: „Am avut o satisfacţie unică atunci când ni s-a înmânat „Mărul de Aur” !
\r\nLa Moldoviţa a avut loc o întâlnire de gradul Zero. N-au aterizat acolo extratereştrii. Ci în jur de 200 de jurnalişti de turism din aproape 40 de ţări. Un eveniment l-a constituit întâlnirea întâmplătoare a lui Miguel Angel Brera cu Alexandru Crăiuţ. În vârstă de 71 de ani, pensionar azi, Crăiuţ a fost cel care a primit în numele comunei Moldoviţa, primul “Măr de Aur”, acordat în 1975 atracţiilor turistice bucovinene.
\r\n- Cum a fost revederea cu Miguel Brera?
\r\n- După mai bine de 35 de ani, cuvintele rămân sărace. Sunt emoţionat, dar am o satisfacţie nemaipomenită. Mă leagă multe de aceste meleaguri, de mănăstirea Moldoviţa. În perioada în care am fost primar am primit numeroase capete încoronate ori demnitari politici, de la regina Iuliana a Olandei până la Jacques Chirac, preşedintele Franţei din acea vreme, scriitori, artişti etc. Pe toţi i-am plimbat să le arătăm frumuseţi unice. Am avut şansa de a fi singurul din familia mea care am trecut prin asemenea fericire.
\r\n- De ce este păzit cu străşnicie “Mărul de Aur” de la Mănăstirea Molodoviţa ?
\r\n- Pentru noi este cel mai important trofeu turistic primit de Bucovina şi de către România. Atunci a fost un moment uriaş. Cîţiva jurnalişti de la Asociaţia internaţională FIJET, care atunci era partener al UNESCO, au venit să aleagă un loc unde să fie decernat şi găzduit acesta. Eu, fiind primar am avut obligaţia să organizez în primul rând locaţia, un podium, brazi, un grup mare de tineri îmbrăcaţi în port popular şi am participat efectiv, la manifestarea susţinută de către primul secretar din acea vreme Miu Dobrescu. Era un om de cultură deosebit, e bine sau nu acum, eu tot spun cum au stat treburile atunci. Ţinea foarte mult la protocol. Printre altele a rămas în istorie şi pentru că a fost singurul demnitar despre care presa a scris că a avut convingeri culturale şi nu comuniste. După decernarea “Mărului de Aur” am avut ceva probleme cu miliţia. Trebuia să asigurăm securitatea trofeului. Se vede treaba că era ceva foarte, foarte important. Pe vremea aceea nu existau mijloacele sofisticate de protecţie ca acum, nici camere de luat vederi, nici altele. De aceea am pus la punct o încuietoare cu lacăt şi un grilaj. De atunci, şi asta ne încântă foarte mult, zeci de mii de turişti interni sau străini, trec anual şi-l admiră. Există o plăcere mai mare decât să vezi “Mărul de Aur” şi mănăstirea Moldoviţa? Pentru noi, cu singuranţă nu!

Strumpfii s-au urcat în avioanele Blue Air
\r\nSurprize, surprize la acest sfârşit de an. După asocierea cu protagoniştii Avatar în primăvara lui 2010, a venit rândul omuleţilor albaştrii, Strumpfii, să călătorească alături de pasagerii Blue Air. \r\nNominalizată la Premiile Oscar, animaţia Strumpfii readuce în atenţia publicului personajele albastre într-o nouă aventură amuzantă, disponibilă din 2 decembrie, în format BLU-RAY 3D, BLU-RAY şi DVD.
Aceasta e oferita de Blue Air şi agenţia de turism Blue Travel – ne-a precizat Florentina Tatu, directorul de PR şi publicitate al companiei aeriene. În baza parteneriatului cu Pro Video, Sony Home Entertainment a acordat dreptul Blue Air de a surprinde pasagerii săi cu „O poveste de Crăciun”, un EXTRA DVD plin de mini-aventuri. Dvd-ul „Strumfii – O poveste de Crăciun” va fi oferit cadou celor care achiziţionează la bordul aeronavelor Blue Air, până la 31 ianuarie 2012, noul personaj de pluş pentru copii, avionaşul BLU. Mascota a fost realizată la cererea pasagerilor Blue Air.\r\n\r\n\r\n

Biletele pentru noua frecvenţă pe ruta Bucureşti-Londra-Bucureşti au fost deja puse în vânzare şi pornesc de la 172 euro (oferta este valabila pentru perioada de călătorie 25 martie-25 aprilie 2012, locuri limitate, taxe incluse).
\r\nDupă cum informează un comunicat al Tarom „zborurile de dimineaţă operate de către compania TAROM atât în sezonul de iarnă 2011-2012 cât şi în sezonul de vară 2012 sunt special concepute astfel încât pasagerii să poată călători mai departe către şi din oraşele: Timişoara, Oradea, Sibiu, Cluj-Napoca, Baia Mare, Târgu Mureş, Suceava şi Iaşi”.','Check-in automat şi gratuit pentru compania Tarom','','inherit','open','open','','968-revision-3','','','2012-01-06 10:24:44','2012-01-06 08:24:44','',968,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2012/01/06/968-revision-3/',0,'revision','',0),(1003,1,'2012-01-06 10:35:12','2012-01-06 08:35:12','','Madive sigla','','inherit','open','open','','madive-sigla','','','2012-01-06 10:35:12','2012-01-06 08:35:12','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Madive-sigla.tif',0,'attachment','image/tiff',0),(1004,1,'2012-01-06 10:36:10','2012-01-06 08:36:10','','Madive sigla','','inherit','open','open','','madive-sigla-2','','','2012-01-06 10:36:10','2012-01-06 08:36:10','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Madive-sigla.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1005,1,'2012-01-06 10:36:27','2012-01-06 08:36:27','','maldive2','','inherit','open','open','','maldive2','','','2012-01-06 10:36:27','2012-01-06 08:36:27','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/maldive2.tif',0,'attachment','image/tiff',0),(1006,1,'2012-01-06 10:31:59','2012-01-06 08:31:59','SUA – Cu braţele deschise
\r\nAmerica este o mare destinaţie turistică dar în ultimii ani a pierdut clienţi! Orice călător visează la o vacanţă undeva în State, dar nu are o imagine clară a complexităţii destinaţiilor oferite! Discutând de-a lungul ultimilor ani aceste aspecte, specialiştii americani au hotărât că Statele Unite au nevoie de o campanie de marketing turistic. Au constatat că, pentru prima dată în istorie, SUA are nevoie de un brand. Aşa a apărut Brand USA, un grup strategic de lucru, cunoscut iniţial sub denumirea de Corporation for Travel Promotion, care a produs şi va avea grijă de brandul global adresat consumatorilor.

MALDIVE – Caracterul minunat al oamenilor
\r\nLuna aceasta a fost anunţat noul brand al Republicii Maldive. Sub sloganul “Always natural” imaginea creată de către specialiştii în comunicare este cea a unei destinaţii care îşi bazează creşterea, viitorul şi dezvoltarea pe natură şi produse cât mai naturale. Noul brand înglobează toate domeniile, nu numai turismul, iar emblema sa este o amprentă în nuanţe de verde, formată din siluete de animale.\"\r\n\r\nAtât sloganul cât şi logo-ul au fost create în aşa fel încât să sublinieze extraordinara frumuseţe a naturii din Maldive, frumuseţe pe care toate tipurile de turişti o consideră principalul motiv pentru a ne vizita ţara\" – a spus Thoyyib Mohamed, ministru al turismului, artelor şi culturii. David Keen, preşedintele companiei QUO Keen, creatoarea brandului, a subliniat că “am creat un brand care vorbeşte atât despre caracterul minunat al oamenilor din Maldive dar şi despre eforturile continue pentru o dezvoltare susţinută în toate industriile.”\r\n\r\n\r\n
Ce spune TripAdvisor ?
\r\nEuropa continuă să fie o destinaţie atractivă pentru turişti americani. De ce vin aceştia pe vechiul continent şi care sunt ratele lor de aşteptare au încercat să afle specialiştii de la TripAdvisor.\r\nConform unui studiu anual de călătorii în Europa - la care au participat 1.200 de persoane -, 60% dintre turişti plănuiesc să sosească aici în viitoarele 12 luni. Aceasta marchează o creştere a interesului cu circa 10% în comparaţie cu anul 2009. 54% din cei intervievaţi au declarat că intenţionează să călătorească în perioada septembrie-octombrie şi doar 38% că vor vizita Europa în perioada mai-iunie.\r\n\r\nCele mai căutate destinaţii sunt Londra, Paris, Roma, Barcelona şi Madrid, iar oraşele care înregistrează creşteri sunt Istanbul, Zurich, Sevilla, Atena şi Copenhaga. Un punct forte al europenilor îl constituie gastronomia, 58% dintre respondenţi apreciind că bucătăria vechiului continent este mai bună. Despre transportul public european, 90% din turiştii americani au spus că este superior celui american.\r\n\r\nÎn privinţa serviciilor, 30% consideră că sunt mai proaste în Europa. Referindu-se la atracţiile turistice, 57% dintre călători au subliniat că în Europa sunt mult mai multe lucruri de vizitat. În ceea ce priveşte standardele de cazare 36% dintre intervievaţi consideră că hotelurile prezintă în Europa un nivel inferior, comparativ cu cele din Statele Unite.\r\nGrupaj de SÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n\r\n
Cele mai tari hoteluri\r\n\r\nAmericanii s-au asigurat cel puţin un sezon că au cel mai mare hotel din lume: Venetian din Las Vegas. Renovarea acestuia s-a încheiat recent. Cu cele 7.000 de camere el deţine supremaţia mondială, surclasând hotelul Asia Asia, cu 6.500 de camere din Dubailand. Venetian operează cu două dintre cele mai renumite francize de restaurante din lume şi oferă peste 50 de restaurante, baruri, cafenele, săli de evenimente şi un teatru. În acelaşi timp singaporezii au detronat Emirates Palace Hotel din Abu Dhabi, din topului celor mai scumpe hoteluri. Ei au inaugurat anul trecut Marina Bay Sands Hotel. Acesta a presupus o investiţie de aproape 6 miliarde de dolari. Preţul celei mai ieftine camere (din cele 2.500) porneşte de la 520 de dolari şi trece de 15.000 de dolari pentru un apartament, pe noapte. Printre principalele atracţii ale hotelului se numără piscina de la etajul 55, lungă de 200 metri, considerată a fi cea mai mare piscină descoperită din lume aflată la această înălţime. Circa 10.000 de angajaţi asigură serviciile oferite de hotel.

VARŞOVIA - un posibil vis fotbalistic de vară\r\nÎn iunie anul viitor, Polonia şi Ucraina vor găzdui turneul final al Campionatului European de Fotbal, care va atrage şi spectatori din România. Pentru cei care vor ajunge la EURO 2012, dar nu numai pentru ei, vă sugerăm o posibilă destinaţie de vacanţă – Varşovia.
\r\n
@ NIMIC DESPRE... TORTUL DE NUNTĂ RUSESC. Pregătirile pentru eveniment au început de mult timp, fiind vizibile pentru cei care au vizitat în cursul acestui an capitala Poloniei. Un banner imens care anunţă evenimentul sportiv se află pe o clădire-simbol a Varşoviei din perioada comunistă, Palatul Culturii şi Ştiinţei. Copie, ca şi Casa Presei din Bucureşti, a Universităţii de stat din Moscova, clădirea a fost ridicată între 1952 - 1955, fiind un dar din partea Uniunii Sovietice. Cu 231 de metri, 3288 de camere şi 42 de etaje, rămâne cea mai înaltă construcţie din Polonia şi a 8-a în topul celor mai înalte din Uniunea Europeană. De la terasa etajului 30 a clădirii care îndeplineşte rolul de centru de expoziţii, spaţii de birouri şi centru cultural, având muzee, cinematografe, teatre şi săli de concerte, ba chiar şi o universitate, se poate admira o panoramă unică a Varşoviei. Polonezii au urât-o pentru că o considerau un simbol al dominaţiei sovietice. Clădirea a fost botezată „Pekin” cu referire la capitala Chinei, de la acronimul PkiN (Palac Kultury I Nauki), dar i s-a mai spus „seringa lui Stalin” sau “tortul de nuntă rusesc”.
@ SUS INIMILE CU... CHOPIN. Dacă aţi ajuns în această zonă rezervaţi-vă trei, patru ore pentru a vizita centrul istoric al capitalei Poloniei. Într-un sfert de oră puteţi ajunge pe „Krakowskie Przedmiescie”, strada care ne duce spre centrul istoric al Varşoviei, căreia i se spune şi „Drumul Regal”. Dacă ai la îndemână o hartă a capitalei, este imposibil să te rătăceşti. În faţa clădirii Academiei de Ştiinţe a Poloniei, se poate observa statuia astronomului şi matematicianului Nicolaus Copernicus 1473-1543), cel care susţinea că soarele este în centrul Universului şi că Pământul se roteşte în jurul lui. Pe pavajul din jurul statuii sunt trasate orbitele planetelor din sistemul nostru solar. Nu le-am putut admira în ansamblu pentru că tocmai atunci o orchestră alcătuită din tineri, studenţi la conservator, se pregăteau de un concert. Nu am avut niciun regret ascultându-i!\r\nDe fapt, muzica clasică şi spiritul lui Frederic Chopin se simt peste tot. La mică distanţă de statuia lui Copernic se află Biserica Sfintei Cruci, unde este depusă inima celebrului compozitor polonez. Pe frontispiciul din faţa bisericii întâlnim inscripţia „SVRSVM CORDA” (Sus inimile), un pasaj din liturghia catolică, la care credincioşii răspund „Habemus ad Dominum” (Le avem la Domnul). Acesta este un fapt care evidenţiază locul special în care a fost depusă inima marelui muzician înmormântat la Paris. Dacă mergeţi pe strada ce duce spre centrul istoric, să nu credeţi că doar vi se pare că auziţi muzica lui Chopin. Băncile aflate pe această stradă au nu numai rolul de a vă informa unde vă aflaţi şi ce obiective sunt în jur. Ele încorporează boxe care difuzează discret acorduri din creaţiile lui Chopin.\r\n \r\n
@ SĂ DAI MÂNA CU O STATUIE. Pe aceeaşi parte cu Biserica Sfintei Cruci, e amplasat Palatul Czapski care adăposteşte astăzi Academia de Arte Frumoase, o clădire unde Chopin şi-a petrecut ultimii ani înainte de a pleca din Polonia şi de a se stabili în Franţa. Pe partea opusă se află poarta de intrare în Universitatea din Varşovia, cu clădiri frumoase, cu spaţii largi şi cu o statuie aflată pe o bancă, cu mâna dreaptă întinsă şi uşor tocită. Este în această stare de la multe generaţii de studenţi ce au dat mână cu... statuia. Superstiţia spune că e bine să faci acest lucru pentru că vei avea şanse mai mari la examene. Cine a fost student înţelege rostul unei mâini întinse înainte de întâlnirea cu profesorii încruntaţi.
@ SE PUTEA FĂRĂ MARLENE DIETRICH ! Mergem pe „Drumul Regal” şi ne oprim pentru a admira arhitectura Art Nouveau a hotelului Le Meridien Bristol, inaugurat în noiembrie 1901 şi considerat cel mai bun hotel din Varşovia, poate chiar din Polonia. Are o istorie tumultoasă, care se împleteşte cu cea a Varşoviei. Aici au stat compozitorii Edward Grieg şi Richard Strauss, au înnoptat Pablo Picasso, Artur Rubinstein, Marlene Dietrich. În timpul Insurecţiei poloneze din vara anului 1944, din ordinul lui Hitler, hotelul trebuia pus la pământ aşa cum s-a întâmplat cu aproape toate clădirile din centrul istoric, însă, în mod norocos, a rămas în picioare. Reparat după război, în 1952 a fost preluat de Orbis, Agenţia turistică de stat şi a devenit un loc destinat în exclusivitate turiştilor străini. În timp s-a degradat, iar în 1981 chiar a fost închis, pentru ca peste doar 10 ani să ajungă o ruină. Renovat, în aprilie 1993 hotelul a fost redeschis oficial, aici fiind cazaţi şefii de stat şi de guverne aflaţi în vizită în Polonia, dar şi alte personalităţi. În apartamentul prezidenţial de astăzi a locuit Ignac Paderewski, pianistul genial care a devenit şi primul premier al Poloniei de după primul război mondial. Aici au stat locuit şi Jacques Chirac, Helmut Kohl, Richard Nixon, Regina Elisabeta a II-a sau George Bush, nu întâmplător deoarece clădirea vecină, Palatul Radziwill, este sediul Preşedinţiei Poloniei. Chiar dacă nu am fost un oaspete de înalt nivel, am fost bine tratat la „Bristol” unde, imediat ce m-am prezentat la recepţie pentru formalităţile de cazare, am primit un plic consistent cu ghiduri şi hărţi ale Varşoviei şi împrejurimilor. Să te tot documentezi şi orientezi printre atracţiile turistice.
\r\n@ LOCUL UNDE PESCARII AU LĂSAT SIRENA. Mai sunt multe clădirile importante pe „Drumul Regal”. Vă lăsăm plăcerea să le descoperiţi singuri până a ajunge în Piaţa Zamkowy, unde se află columna regelui Zygmunt al III-lea Waza, rege al Poloniei şi Mare Duce al Lituaniei între 1587 şi 1632, dar şi rege al Suediei. Aici se află Castelul regal, reşedinţa regilor Poloniei începând din 1596, ca urmare a deciziei regelui Zygmunt al II-lea de a muta aici capitala după incendiul reşedinţei din Cracovia. Oraşul vechi şi acest castel distrus în al doilea război mondial şi reconstruit în 1971 sunt incluse, începând din 1980, în patrimoniul cultural mondial UNESCO. Castelul regal este amenajat ca muzeu de artă, dar tinde să devină un spaţiu pentru concerte de muzică de cameră. Tot în Piaţa Zamkowy, kilometrul zero al Varşoviei, este un punct de belvedere de unde puteţi admira silueta stadionului care, în iunie 2012, va găzdui una dintre semifinalele lui Euro 2012. În perioada verii, un minicar vă poate purta prin centrul vechi într-un tur de jumătate de oră. Străbătând străzile înguste din centrul istoric, ajungeţi în piaţa unde se află „Sirena” - simbolul oraşului Varşovia. Există multe locuri cu încărcătură istorică şi multe legende, însă cea despre Sirena din Varşovia mi se pare importantă.Potrivit legendei, o sirenă care înota în mare s-a oprit pe malul Vistulei, lângă oraşul vechi, ca să se odihnească. I-a plăcut locul şi s-a hotărât să rămână aici. Pescari au observat ceva care le încurca plasele de pescuit şi elibera peştii prinşi. Deşi intenţia lor iniţială a fost de a o prinde, pescarii s-au îndrăgostit de ea şi de muzica pe care o cânta. Mai târziu, un negustor bogat a reuşit să prindă sirena şi să o închidă într-o colibă de lemn. Auzind plânsul sirenei, un tânăr pescar a eliberat-o. Atunci sirena le-a promis pescarilor că-i va ajuta şi-i va ocroti ori de câte ori vor avea nevoie. De atunci, sirena, înarmată cu sabie şi scut e gata să apere Varşovia atât de greu încercată şi pe locuitorii săi.\r\nDe reţinut: toate clădirile din centrul vechi sunt refăcute. Aici sunt o mulţime de magazine cu suveniruri, dar vă puteţi orienta şi spre specialităţi precum turta dulce trasă în ciocolată sau prune trase în ciocolată. Polonezii au tradiţie în fabricarea de dulciuri, iar o dovadă este clădirea fabricii de ciocolată, care a funcţionat începând de la mijlocul secolului al 19-lea. Dacă aţi obosit după acest tur de oraş, vă puteţi aşeza la o terasă pentru o cafea sau o bere. Zlotul are aceeaşi paritate cu leul, doar că preţurile sunt puţin mai mari. O halbă de bere vă poate costa, de exemplu, 9 zloţi, însă în locul în care am intrat, şi pentru a mânca ceva, începând cu a doua bere plăteai doar 7 zloţi. O idee bună, un truc turistic care umple localul în fiecare zi!

UNESCO – de la arheologie la fotbal
\r\nSuntem obişnuiţi să găsim simbolul patrimoniului UNESCO afişat pe clădiri, la intrarea în situri arheologice sau alături de descrierea unor obective turistice, în ghiduri şi chiar pe tricourile echipelor de fotbal. A devenit o marcă, un garant al calităţii. Organizaţia selectează însă, anual, şi minuni naturale ale globului. Anul trecut a adus în atenţia publicului 8 destinaţii pentru aventură, din Tanzania, China, Rusia ori Pacific.\r\n\r\nÎn peşterile preistorice ale lui Yagul şi Mitla (Oaxaca, la 550 km de Mexico City), sunt picturi rupestre, dar s-au găsit seminţe de cucurbitacee, vechi de peste 10.000 de ani. Regiunea Danxia din China are particularitatea de a afişa un peisaj selenar, colorat în zeci de nuanţe. Insulele Phoenix reprezintă cea mai mare regiune marină protejată din lume (10.000 km NV de Insulele Fiji din Pacificul de Sud). Insulele Reunion (Oceanul Indian) oferă peisajul conurilor vulcanice iar zona Papahanaumokuakea (NV de Hawaii) adaposteşte recifuri de corali cu specii rare de vieţuitoare marine.\r\n\r\nDacă vreţi mai mult de atât puteţi încerca Zona de conservare Ngorongoro din Tanzania. Inclusă în patrimoniul UNESCO în 1979 - este considerată locul în care au fost descoperiţi pentru prima dată stramoşii omului. Lista se încheie cu Rezervaţia Naturala de Stat Putoransky din Rusia (100 km Nord de Cercul Arctic) şi Podişurile Centrale din Sri Lanka, regiuni ce adăpostesc animale pe cale de dispariţie. În ultimii 28 de ani UNESCO a identificat în jur de 180 de minuni naturale ale lumii, în 77 de ţări.','SUA cu bratele deschise','','inherit','open','open','','918-revision-5','','','2012-01-06 10:31:59','2012-01-06 08:31:59','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2012/01/06/918-revision-5/',0,'revision','',0),(1007,1,'2012-01-06 10:37:38','2012-01-06 08:37:38','','maldive2','','inherit','open','open','','maldive2-2','','','2012-01-06 10:37:38','2012-01-06 08:37:38','',918,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/maldive2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1008,1,'2012-01-06 10:36:40','2012-01-06 08:36:40','SUA – Cu braţele deschise
\r\nAmerica este o mare destinaţie turistică dar în ultimii ani a pierdut clienţi! Orice călător visează la o vacanţă undeva în State, dar nu are o imagine clară a complexităţii destinaţiilor oferite! Discutând de-a lungul ultimilor ani aceste aspecte, specialiştii americani au hotărât că Statele Unite au nevoie de o campanie de marketing turistic. Au constatat că, pentru prima dată în istorie, SUA are nevoie de un brand. Aşa a apărut Brand USA, un grup strategic de lucru, cunoscut iniţial sub denumirea de Corporation for Travel Promotion, care a produs şi va avea grijă de brandul global adresat consumatorilor.

LOUVRE HOTELS – în pas de defilare spre pieţele ţintă
\r\nDupă unirea Louvre Hotels cu Golden Tulip în aprilie 2011, specialiştii noului grup hotelier Louvre plănuiesc o campanie de noutăţi, demnă de o strategie militară: cucerirea pieţelor din Europa Centrală şi de Est.

MALDIVE – Caracterul minunat al oamenilor
\r\nLuna aceasta a fost anunţat noul brand al Republicii Maldive. Sub sloganul “Always natural” imaginea creată de către specialiştii în comunicare este cea a unei destinaţii care îşi bazează creşterea, viitorul şi dezvoltarea pe natură şi produse cât mai naturale. Noul brand înglobează toate domeniile, nu numai turismul, iar emblema sa este o amprentă în nuanţe de verde, formată din siluete de animale.\"\r\n\r\nAtât sloganul cât şi logo-ul au fost create în aşa fel încât să sublinieze extraordinara frumuseţe a naturii din Maldive, frumuseţe pe care toate tipurile de turişti o consideră principalul motiv pentru a ne vizita ţara\" – a spus Thoyyib Mohamed, ministru al turismului, artelor şi culturii. David Keen, preşedintele companiei QUO Keen, creatoarea brandului, a subliniat că “am creat un brand care vorbeşte atât despre caracterul minunat al oamenilor din Maldive dar şi despre eforturile continue pentru o dezvoltare susţinută în toate industriile.”\r\n\r\n\r\n
Ce spune TripAdvisor ?
\r\nEuropa continuă să fie o destinaţie atractivă pentru turişti americani. De ce vin aceştia pe vechiul continent şi care sunt ratele lor de aşteptare au încercat să afle specialiştii de la TripAdvisor.\r\nConform unui studiu anual de călătorii în Europa - la care au participat 1.200 de persoane -, 60% dintre turişti plănuiesc să sosească aici în viitoarele 12 luni. Aceasta marchează o creştere a interesului cu circa 10% în comparaţie cu anul 2009. 54% din cei intervievaţi au declarat că intenţionează să călătorească în perioada septembrie-octombrie şi doar 38% că vor vizita Europa în perioada mai-iunie.\r\n\r\nCele mai căutate destinaţii sunt Londra, Paris, Roma, Barcelona şi Madrid, iar oraşele care înregistrează creşteri sunt Istanbul, Zurich, Sevilla, Atena şi Copenhaga. Un punct forte al europenilor îl constituie gastronomia, 58% dintre respondenţi apreciind că bucătăria vechiului continent este mai bună. Despre transportul public european, 90% din turiştii americani au spus că este superior celui american.\r\n\r\nÎn privinţa serviciilor, 30% consideră că sunt mai proaste în Europa. Referindu-se la atracţiile turistice, 57% dintre călători au subliniat că în Europa sunt mult mai multe lucruri de vizitat. În ceea ce priveşte standardele de cazare 36% dintre intervievaţi consideră că hotelurile prezintă în Europa un nivel inferior, comparativ cu cele din Statele Unite.\r\nGrupaj de SÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n\r\n
Cele mai tari hoteluri\r\n\r\nAmericanii s-au asigurat cel puţin un sezon că au cel mai mare hotel din lume: Venetian din Las Vegas. Renovarea acestuia s-a încheiat recent. Cu cele 7.000 de camere el deţine supremaţia mondială, surclasând hotelul Asia Asia, cu 6.500 de camere din Dubailand. Venetian operează cu două dintre cele mai renumite francize de restaurante din lume şi oferă peste 50 de restaurante, baruri, cafenele, săli de evenimente şi un teatru. În acelaşi timp singaporezii au detronat Emirates Palace Hotel din Abu Dhabi, din topului celor mai scumpe hoteluri. Ei au inaugurat anul trecut Marina Bay Sands Hotel. Acesta a presupus o investiţie de aproape 6 miliarde de dolari. Preţul celei mai ieftine camere (din cele 2.500) porneşte de la 520 de dolari şi trece de 15.000 de dolari pentru un apartament, pe noapte. Printre principalele atracţii ale hotelului se numără piscina de la etajul 55, lungă de 200 metri, considerată a fi cea mai mare piscină descoperită din lume aflată la această înălţime. Circa 10.000 de angajaţi asigură serviciile oferite de hotel.

\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Cet-7.jpg\" "\\"Cet")
Deşi toată lumea se plânge de criza financiară, sau o ia pe post de scuză în business, în domeniul turismului statisticile înregistează creştere... pe toată linia! Comisia Europeană de Travel (CET) indică procente peste anul 2008 iar analizele World Travel Market de anul trecut vorbesc despre noile trenduri: moda de a alege călătorii cu destinaţie necunoscută sau plata serviciilor cu telefonul mobil.
Publicat în luna ianuarie de către Comisia Europeană de Travel raportul „European Tourism in 2011 – Trends &Prospects” arată că anul trecut a marcat un record pentru industria călătoriilor din Europa. Vizitele internaţionale în Europa au crescut cu 6%, depăşind astfel vârful înregistrat în 2008. Companiile aeriene au servit cu 5% mai mulţi pasageri ca în 2010, iar hotelurile au indicat o creştere de 3,2% a gradului de ocupare. Numărul de turişti a crescut în 22 din 23 de ţări raportoare, creşterea variind de la 3% în Marea Britanie, la peste 20% în Letonia şi Lituania. În timp ce pieţele tradiţionale vestice ale turismului european stagnează sau cresc foarte puţin, Europa de Est pare a recupera teren în plin sezon: gradul de ocupare al hotelurilor a crescut cu 10,4% in luna august a anului trecut, faţă de aceeaşi perioadă din 2010.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Cet-1.jpg\" "\\"Cet")
\r\n
Mai mulţi şi buni!
\r\nPe acest fond specialiştii par să se fi pus de acord că cei mai buni turişti vor proveni din SUA şi China. Un studiu cerut de Hilton Hotels&Resorts arată că în 2010 Europa a fost vizitată de circa 3 milioane de turişti chinezi. Ei s-au îndreptat cu precădere spre ţări bine promovate şi cunoscute, precum Italia, Franţa şi Germania.
\r\nÎn continuare analizele spun că piaţa asiatică va fi un furnizor constant pentru Europa, în creştere cu câteva sute de mii de călători în fiecare an. Pentru anul 2020 ar trebui să ne pregătim să vedem în jur de 8,6 milioane clienţi chinezi! Se estimează că în perioada 2010-2015 ei vor fi o sursă extraordinară de venit, aducând cei mai mulţi bani după turiştii americani. Deja cu un pas înainte, companiile hoteliere au început să-şi reorienteze campaniile de promovare a brandurilor către piaţa asiatică, mai ales către clienţii corporate, şi să se gândească la a produce servicii speciale.\r\n\r\nDeşi americanii călătoresc mai aproape de casă ei rămân clienţi bănoşi, cu o medie de 4% creştere a cheltuielilor efectuate în străinătate. În 2010 călătoriile peste oceane ale americanilor au scăzut cu 6%, în timp Mexicul şi Canada au crescut cu 3, respectiv 1%. În![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/cet-las-vegas.jpg\" "\\"cet")
top 5 destinaţii favorite găsim: Mexicul (20 milioane), Canada (11.7 milioane), Marea Britanie (2.4 milioane), Republica Dominicană (1.8 milioane), Franţa şi Italia (fiecare cu câte 1.8 milioane).\r\n\r\n\r\n
Unde se vând “pachete misterioase”!
\r\nÎn urma Târgului de turism desfăşurat în toamnă, la Londra, World Travel Market 2011, au rezultat câteva observaţii interesante cu privire la profilul noilor consumatori de turism. În SUA pare a fi venit moda pachetelor turistice “misterioase”. Clienţii între 20 şi 34 ani licitează online pe pachete anunţate de către agenţi ca fiind cu 50% mai ieftine la momentul respectiv. Turistul cumpără dar nu ştie ce. Coordonatele călătoriei (destinaţie, hoteluri, condiţii) sunt necunoscute la momentul achiziţiei, urmând a le fi transmise ulterior. Pentru cei aventuroşi există o variantă în care detaliile fiecărei zile sunt transmise pe telefon sau ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Cet-4.jpg\" "\\"Cet")
mail! Tot cu mobilul se descurcă şi continentul african, unde plata cu telefonul (M-commerce) este la ordinea zilei. 60% din utilizatorii de telefoane cu servicii internet plătesc astfel. Serviciul de transfer bani prin telefonul mobil, M-PESA, facilitează kenyenilor fără conturi bancare achiziţia de călătorii sau bilete de avion. În 2010 Kenya Airways şi Uganda Airlines au intrat în sistemul M-PESA. Anul trecut creşterea PIB pe continentul african a fost de 5%.
\r\n
Orientul Mijlociu – în scădere
\r\nDupă creşterea de 11,5 % din 2010 a pieţelor din Orientul Mijlociu, anul trecut instabilitatea zonei a dus la o cădere de 6,2 % a incomingului. Mai multe ţări anunţă noi campanii de promovare şi se estimează o revenire cu 1,3% în 2012.\r\nTurismul european se va menţine probabil, fără surprize pe parcursul acestui an, într-un echilibru tradiţional. O nouă orientare, interesantă, este cea a hotelierilor care încep promovarea produselor locale. Multe unităţi îşi atrag chiar clienţii prin meniurile restaurantelor în care apar legume cultivate în grădinile proprii! Şi că tot veni vorba de grădini, în Marea Britanie, turiştii activi, mobili, au găsit o nouă variantă de cazare: închiriază o grădină în care să-şi pună rulota! Soluţia ingenioasă a fost găsită ca o alternativă la cazările tradiţonale, din cauza Jocurilor Olimpice preţurile la hoteluri înregistrând o creştere de până la cinci ori. Una dintre concluziile specialiştilor care s-au întâlnit la WTM 2011 a fost că, pentru toate pieţele, bătălia pe termen lung va fi câştigată de campanile de marketing online, în timp ce aplicaţiile pentru noile suporturi media vor avea de câştigat pe termen mediu.

Un album cu… colindători
Că tot bat la uşă sărbătorile de iarnă. O lucrare de promovare a Consiliului Judeţean Suceava, editată cu finanţare europeană, ne readuce aminte că avem tradiţii vii, care concurează cu cele păstrate în muzee occidentale ce stochează urmele unor culturi populare apuse demult. „Crăciun în Bucovina”, apărut în versiunile română şi engleză, este un album păstrător de viaţă. Prin el sunt promovate datinile şi obiceiurile zonei, preluate de la strămoşi, păstrate intacte şi transferate mai departe înaintaşilor. Ele fac din Bucovina, la fiecare sfârşit de an un loc unic pe planetă. Parcurgând paginile bogat ilustrate cu fotografii actuale, avem în faţă parcă o mare scenă pe care se desfăşoară un spectacol rarisim de măşti şi ceremonialuri, ce constituie atracţii de top pentru călătorii români şi străini.

Sir Sitwell sub umbrela României frumoase
După ce am parcurs volumul „Călătorie în România”, apărut în colecţia Vintage a editurii Humanitas mi-am pus întrebarea dacă Sir Sacheverell Sitwell nu este un autor contemporan. Întrebare retorică deoarece călătorul englez - poet, critic, istoric de artă, memorialist cu studii la Oxford -, a redactat această carte tradusă de Maria Berza, în anul... 1937. El a făcut o scurtă călătorie în România, la invitaţia prinţesei Anne-Marie Callimachi, cu puţină vreme înainte de izbucnirea celui de-al doilea Război Mondial. Astfel a devenit unul dintre ultimii martori culturali ai unei Românii aflată atunci în plină înflorire. Ne-au impresionat observaţiile profunde, dublate de referinţe estetice, făcute de la Hurezi până în Delta Dunării, de la comunităţile de ţigani căldărari până la bisericile pictate din Bucovina, de la Bucureşti până la Braşov, Sighişoara, Cozia ori Borsec. În peste 250 de pagini, cu reproduceri după ilustraţiile originale, autorul face observaţii demne de invidiat. Un exemplu:”Ajunseserăm în Oltenia, locul unde se ţes cele mai frumoase covoare româneşti. E cazul să recunoaştem că, după covoarele persane şi turceşti, cele olteneşti sunt într-adevăr cele mai frumoase”. Se vede că scriitorul de turism este un promotor de cultură. Aspect pe cale de uitare în România de azi.

Ne-au impresionat observaţiile profunde, dublate de referinţe estetice, făcute de la Hurezi până în Delta Dunării, de la comunităţile de ţigani căldărari până la bisericile pictate din Bucovina, de la Bucureşti până la Braşov, Sighişoara, Cozia ori Borsec. În peste 250 de pagini, cu reproduceri după ilustraţiile originale, autorul face observaţii demne de invidiat. Un exemplu:”Ajunseserăm în Oltenia, locul unde se ţes cele mai frumoase covoare româneşti. E cazul să recunoaştem că, după covoarele persane şi turceşti, cele olteneşti sunt într-adevăr cele mai frumoase”. Se vede că scriitorul de turism este un promotor de cultură. Aspect pe cale de uitare în România de azi.

Un vagabond de lux prin lume
\r\nNe-a parvenit de ceva vreme la redacţie un volum concentrat şi prin de experienţe bogate de călătorie. „Jurnalul unui vagabond prin lume” este semnat de un român pe nume Costin Ştefan, care crede că e bine să rămână în urma noastră drumuri de hârtie tipărită cu experienţe personalizate. Reportajele sunt însoţite de fotografii neconvenţionale făcute în periplurile efectuate în India, Thailanda, Indonezia, Malaezia, Vietnam, Birmania, Cambodgia, Kenia, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania etc. Costin Ştefan nu trebuie să convingă pe nimeni că este un călător scriitor talentat. Asta este. Şi o dovedeşte din plin în acest al doilea volum de autor pe care vi-l semnalăm. Dacă viaţa „se măsoară în vise trăite şi nu în ani”, atunci cu prisosinţă merită să-l căutaţi în librării şi să-i cumpăraţi un exemplar. Nu veţi avea în faţă o carte ci 250 de pagini de vise, tipărite la Editura Lumina Tipo din Bucureşti. Volumul poate fi comandat şi la adresa: comanda@costinstefan.ro.

Elisabeta redescoperită la Herculane
\r\nPrin volumul al doilea al scriitorului Dorin Bălteanu, avem o nouă oglindă a fabuloaselor legende în majoritatea lor cu rădăcini reale. „Herculane – Arc peste timp” strânge în aproape 300 de pagini noi descoperiri făcute de autor în legătură cu trecerile unor personalităţi prin această staţiune, considerată cândva una dintre cele mai valoroase din lume. Împărăteasa Elisabeta a Austro-Ungariei, fascinanta Sisi, care ne-a lăsat şi o serie de poeme despre această zonă, regina Elisabeta a României, împăraţii Iosif al II-lea, Francisc I, Franz Iosef ori Regele Carol al II-lea, au lăsat urme ale gloriei lor la Herculane. Bălteanu excelează în acest volum prin interviuri şi declaraţii ale unor oameni mai puţin cunoscuţi, dar care au meritat cu prisosinţă să fie aduşi în prim plan. Prin ei istoria recentă a locurilor, capătă alte valenţe istorice prin investiţiile făcute de industria turistică în ultima jumătate de secol. Volumul, apărut la Editura Info din Craiova, îşi va găsi sigur un loc în biblioteca dumneavoastră.

Unii joacă la ruleta cuvintelor miliarde de euro, fără habar să n-aibă cum se face 1. Aşa că am plecat în pribegie să aducem bani la Românica.

Reveniţi... etc. După aia am aruncat în sac ce ne-a căzut în mână - avioane, vase de croazieră, trenuri, autocare, submarine, rachete turistice. Unde n-a ţinut am scos puşca şi am tras. Ei au scos digitalele şi ne-au tras în fotografie, unde se cam vede că ne-a ajuns cuţitul la os.\r\nAm dat-o pe glumă, că asta ne-a am rămas, noi căpşunarii presei de turism. Cum să ne întoarcem acasă cu mâna goală. S-ar fi rupt de râs Moş Crăciun. Mai călare mai pe jos am înfulecat un sac cu dolăraşi tocmai în oraşul Columbia din SUA. După care am ieşit la drumul mare şi am strigat „Fraţilor, am înviiins!”. Iar americanii ne-au întrebat... pe cine? Le-am răspuns cu mândrie, plini de fudulie, întrebaţi-l pe Mircea Dinescu, el ştie!\r\nHai Sărbători Fericite!

La Madrid, Paris, Milano, Florenţa, Roma am observat că sub acest aspect pe afară e vopsit gardul dar când îţi iei camera în primire confortul este sub nivelul preţului plătit. Că hoteluri de 3 şi 4 stele îţi oferă în majoritatea cazurilor condiţii inferioare de cazare. Asta ca să ne păstrăm în termeni... eleganţi.\n\nDacă privim din cealaltă perspectivă în România - şi ea tot o ţară europeană, s-au construit sute de hoteluri noi, s-au modernizat cele vechi, multe intrate în lanţuri internaţionale. Preţul oferit este inferior în dese situaţii calităţii spaţiilor de cazare şi serviciilor puse la dispoziţie. Exemple la îndemână! Bucureştiul a crescut foarte mult. Oraşe ca Braşov, Sibiu, Târgu Mureş, Cluj, Timişoara, Oradea, Constanţa ori Iaşi, unde de abia aşteptăm să găsim timp să inspectăm noul complex Palas, sunt beneficiarele unor investiţii de top.\n\nCu toate acestea cei care ne vizitează mai strâmbă din nas la ceea ce oferim deşi în comparaţie cu oraşe europene, suntem într-o poziţie favorabilă. Drept urmare, afirmăm în cunoştinţă de cauză, că ne exprimăm prea modest exact acolo unde nu trebuie. Unele site-uri de prezentare sunt sărăcăcioase, chiar zgârcite cu informaţii vizuale, când ar trebui să fie mai agresive prin ceea ce oferă turistului. Mai ales că realitatea ne ajută. Modestie managerială sau lipsă de inspiraţie în promovarea hotelurilor? Nepricepere sau lipsă de experienţă?\n\nToate acestea demobilizează business-ul tocmai în momentul în care ar trebui să fie insistent publicitat. Modestia, reluăm, nu face casă bună cu un mediu concurenţial unde proprietarii din alte ţări îşi strigă marfa cu mai mult talent şi devotament. Pentru că din asta trăiesc. \n\nApoi vedem o neconcordanţă - şi asta spune multe despre mediul de afaceri din turism -, între prestaţiile unor organizaţii ca FPTR, FIHR, ANAT ori ANTREC, care ar trebui să cânte împreună în spectacolul promovării. Scenariu este de bună calitate. Mai trebuie şi actori îndrăzneţi care să pună în operă... piesa. Presa de profil este unul dintre ei. Căutaţi-ne!\n\nCă nu greşim, ne-o confirmă şi o informaţie recentă. Ea arată că Bucureştiul se află - într-un top întocmit de site-ul www.hotel.info-, pe locul 18 în ceea ce priveşte gradul de satisfacţie al clienţilor hotelurilor dar şi al raportului calitate-preţ. Prima poziţie este ocupată de câţiva ani de Varşovia secondată de Tokio şi Helsinki. Vă spune ceva?\n\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU\nDoriţi să citiţi toată revista?

\nSunteţi agenţi de turism profesionişti? Atunci căutaţi ghizi pe măsură! Sunteţi ghizi atestaţi? Atunci aveţi nevoie de Asociaţia Naţională a Ghizilor din România (A.N.G.R).\n\nA.N.G.R. a fost înfiinţată în 2009 şi este activă din anul 2011. Ea numără în prezent 78 membri. “Estimările noastre arată că, în România, activează, având continuitate, în jur de 350 ghizi. De aceea suntem bucuroşi că un sfert dintre ei sunt membri ai A.N.G.R, prima asociaţie cu activitate susţinută în acest domeniu” – spune Tiberiu Munteanu, ghid de turism şi preşedinte A.N.G.R.\n\nMembri asociaţiei sunt ghizi atestaţi de către Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului din Romania (M.D.R.T.). Ei asigură desfăşurarea activităţilor turistice (circuite şi sejururi) organizate de către agenţiile de turism, atât în ţară (incoming) cât şi în străinătate (outgoing). Serviciile prestate acoperă o paletă largă de activităţi: de la transferuri aeroport ori la porturile de la Dunăre, de ghizi şoferi, ghizi de muzeu, până la conducători de grup în toate destinaţiile din lume.\n\nGhizii A.N.G.R, prin experienţa dobândită în circuite, vin mereu cu informaţii de folos agenţilor de turism. Împreună ei pot alcătui produse turistice de calitate, care să îmbine în mod echilibrat atât oferta culturală cât şi componenta de relaxare.\n\nConsiliul Director al A.N.G.R. organizează periodic întâlniri tematice profesionale. În ultimul an s-au purtat discuţii pe baza unor prezentări cu subiecte diverse precum: “Turism şi Roşia Montană” (Adrian Lucaci), “Metode profesionale de documentare” (Eugenia Kalisz), “Turism oenologic” (Tiberiu Munteanu), etc. Întâlnirile au ca scop schimburi de calitate de experienţă şi îmbogătirea cunoştinţelor membrilor asociaţiei.\n\nUna dintre marile reuşite ale A.N.G.R. este invitaţia primită de la M.D.R.T. de a participa la modificarea legislaţiei cu privire la activitatea de ghid de turism. Toate propunerile se găsesc pe site-ul asociaţiei www.angr.ro.\n\n“Consider că asociaţia ne reprezintă, luptă pentru protejarea intereselor noastre profesionale şi sociale, iar afilierea la A.N.G.R oferă prestigiu membrilor şi, în acelaşi timp, dă forţă asociaţiei în ansamblu” – spune Mircea Savu, ghid de turism şi membru al Consiliului Director.\nPartenerii A.N.G.R. vin atât din domeniul media (Traveller Magazin şi Travel Mix Channel) cât şi din domeniul formării profesionale (THR-CG) ori al agenţiilor de turism (A.N.A.T şi Invitation Romania Travel).
2011 – Turismul creşte şi nu se predă
\r\nDeşi toată lumea se plânge de criza financiară, sau o ia pe post de scuză în business, în domeniul turismului statisticile înregistează creştere... pe toată linia! Comisia Europeană de Travel (CET) indică procente peste anul 2008 iar analizele World Travel Market de anul trecut vorbesc despre noile trenduri: moda de a alege călătorii cu destinaţie necunoscută sau plata serviciilor cu telefonul mobil.
Publicat în luna ianuarie de către Comisia Europeană de Travel raportul „European Tourism in 2011 – Trends &Prospects” arată că anul trecut a marcat un record pentru industria călătoriilor din Europa. Vizitele internaţionale în Europa au crescut cu 6%, depăşind astfel vârful înregistrat în 2008. Companiile aeriene au servit cu 5% mai mulţi pasageri ca în 2010, iar hotelurile au indicat o creştere de 3,2% a gradului de ocupare. Numărul de turişti a crescut în 22 din 23 de ţări raportoare, creşterea variind de la 3% în Marea Britanie, la peste 20% în Letonia şi Lituania. În timp ce pieţele tradiţionale vestice ale turismului european stagnează sau cresc foarte puţin, Europa de Est pare a recupera teren în plin sezon: gradul de ocupare al hotelurilor a crescut cu 10,4% in luna august a anului trecut, faţă de aceeaşi perioadă din 2010.
\r\n
Mai mulţi şi buni!
\r\nPe acest fond specialiştii par să se fi pus de acord că cei mai buni turişti vor proveni din SUA şi China. Un studiu cerut de Hilton Hotels&Resorts arată că în 2010 Europa a fost vizitată de circa 3 milioane de turişti chinezi. Ei s-au îndreptat cu precădere spre ţări bine promovate şi cunoscute, precum Italia, Franţa şi Germania.
\r\nÎn continuare analizele spun că piaţa asiatică va fi un furnizor constant pentru Europa, în creştere cu câteva sute de mii de călători în fiecare an. Pentru anul 2020 ar trebui să ne pregătim să vedem în jur de 8,6 milioane clienţi chinezi! Se estimează că în perioada 2010-2015 ei vor fi o sursă extraordinară de venit, aducând cei mai mulţi bani după turiştii americani. Deja cu un pas înainte, companiile hoteliere au început să-şi reorienteze campaniile de promovare a brandurilor către piaţa asiatică, mai ales către clienţii corporate, şi să se gândească la a produce servicii speciale.\r\n\r\nDeşi americanii călătoresc mai aproape de casă ei rămân clienţi bănoşi, cu o medie de 4% creştere a cheltuielilor efectuate în străinătate. În 2010 călătoriile peste oceane ale americanilor au scăzut cu 6%, în timp Mexicul şi Canada au crescut cu 3, respectiv 1%. Întop 5 destinaţii favorite găsim: Mexicul (20 milioane), Canada (11.7 milioane), Marea Britanie (2.4 milioane), Republica Dominicană (1.8 milioane), Franţa şi Italia (fiecare cu câte 1.8 milioane).\r\n\r\n\r\n
Unde se vând “pachete misterioase”!
\r\nÎn urma Târgului de turism desfăşurat în toamnă, la Londra, World Travel Market 2011, au rezultat câteva observaţii interesante cu privire la profilul noilor consumatori de turism. În SUA pare a fi venit moda pachetelor turistice “misterioase”. Clienţii între 20 şi 34 ani licitează online pe pachete anunţate de către agenţi ca fiind cu 50% mai ieftine la momentul respectiv. Turistul cumpără dar nu ştie ce. Coordonatele călătoriei (destinaţie, hoteluri, condiţii) sunt necunoscute la momentul achiziţiei, urmând a le fi transmise ulterior. Pentru cei aventuroşi există o variantă în care detaliile fiecărei zile sunt transmise pe telefon sau mail! Tot cu mobilul se descurcă şi continentul african, unde plata cu telefonul (M-commerce) este la ordinea zilei. 60% din utilizatorii de telefoane cu servicii internet plătesc astfel. Serviciul de transfer bani prin telefonul mobil, M-PESA, facilitează kenyenilor fără conturi bancare achiziţia de călătorii sau bilete de avion. În 2010 Kenya Airways şi Uganda Airlines au intrat în sistemul M-PESA. Anul trecut creşterea PIB pe continentul african a fost de 5%.
\r\n
Orientul Mijlociu – în scădere
\r\nDupă creşterea de 11,5 % din 2010 a pieţelor din Orientul Mijlociu, anul trecut instabilitatea zonei a dus la o cădere de 6,2 % a incomingului. Mai multe ţări anunţă noi campanii de promovare şi se estimează o revenire cu 1,3% în 2012.\r\nTurismul european se va menţine probabil, fără surprize pe parcursul acestui an, într-un echilibru tradiţional. O nouă orientare, interesantă, este cea a hotelierilor care încep promovarea produselor locale. Multe unităţi îşi atrag chiar clienţii prin meniurile restaurantelor în care apar legume cultivate în grădinile proprii! Şi că tot veni vorba de grădini, în Marea Britanie, turiştii activi, mobili, au găsit o nouă variantă de cazare: închiriază o grădină în care să-şi pună rulota! Soluţia ingenioasă a fost găsită ca o alternativă la cazările tradiţonale, din cauza Jocurilor Olimpice preţurile la hoteluri înregistrând o creştere de până la cinci ori. Una dintre concluziile specialiştilor care s-au întâlnit la WTM 2011 a fost că, pentru toate pieţele, bătălia pe termen lung va fi câştigată de campanile de marketing online, în timp ce aplicaţiile pentru noile suporturi media vor avea de câştigat pe termen mediu.

Conform analizei gradul de ocupare pe piaţa hotelieră ar fi de 60% în 2011. Cu toţi aceşti indicatori optimişti Comisia Europeană de Travel anunţă pentru 2012 o scădere de 1% a vizitelor internaţionale în Europa şi o creştere de doar 0,8% pentru 2013.

\n\nPNUD se implică într-un triunghi turistic românesc

Un Proiect-pilot ce prevede dezvoltare urbană integrată pentru reabilitarea şi modernizarea destinaţiilor turistice Borsec, Băile Herculane şi Sulina. Adoptat de Guvern la sfârşitul anului trecut, el se află în derulare, cei doi „dezvoltatori” fiind Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului şi Programul Naţiunilor Unite pentru Dezvoltare (PNUD). Cofinanţarea va fi asigurată, pe baza unui Acord ce prevede “Dezvoltarea urbană integrată în vederea reabilitării şi modernizării destinaţiilor turistice Borsec, Băile Herculane şi Sulina ca suport al activităţilor de turism durabil”. Cooperarea dintre Guvernul României şi PNUD se realizează în cadrul Programului de Ţară 2010 – 2012 şi face parte din Planului strategic naţional.\r\nO echipă de experţi pe Valea Cernei
\r\nCe a fost? Din primele întâlniri avute cu reprezentanţii comunităţii locale a reieşit că există o motivaţie clară pentru proiect. Pe parcursul a trei vizite făcute la Băile Herculane, reprezentanţii Primăriei, condusă de Nicuşor Vasilescu, ai MDRT, ai specialiştilor în politici de integrare europeană şi de urbanism şi a celor din partea PNUD, au fost purtate discuţii edificatoare privind aşteptările participanţilor faţă de acest proiect. Au avut loc circa 30 de întâlniri individuale cu membri ai comunităţii locale, conducători de instituţii publice, administratori de pensiuni şi hoteluri. Echipa de experţi PNUD şi-a cristalizat o viziune asupra problemelor majore ale oraşului, asupra modului de percepţie a locuitorilor şi a gradului de implicare a acestora. La întâlniri a participat şi reprezentantul Organizaţiei

\r\nUn plan viabil pentru resurse naturale
\r\nCe urmează? După identificarea soluţiilor, în cursul lunii februarie şi în următoarele vizite va avea loc o consultare publică în care vor fi prezentate membrilor comunităţii concluziile şi propunerile echipei PNUD. La Bucureşti va avea loc o întrunire a board-ului format din reprezentanţi ai MDRT, PNUD, OMT şi primarii celor trei localităţi care vor dezbate şi aproba documentul cu concluziile echipei de experţi.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Pnud-Primar-Nicusor-Vasilescu-1.jpg\" "\\"Pnud")
Referindu-se la impact Nic Ţarălungă, coordonatorul naţional de proiect, ne-a declarat: „Efectele vor fi finanţările pe care trebuie să le atragem şi prin care proiectele propuse vor deveni viabile. Spre sfârşitul lui martie se va realizarea un plan de acţiune pe proiecte prioritare, o evaluare a necesarului de bani pentru aceste proiecte. În etapa de implementare este necesară dezvoltarea unei activităţi de marketing a staţiunilor şi a ”produselor turistice” proprii. Al doilea element esenţial în dezvoltarea lor este implicarea proprietarilor în reabilitarea clădirilor cu funcţiuni turistice, cu precădere a celor cu valoarea de patrimoniu. Al treilea nivel de exprimare se referă la formarea resurselor umane. Am în vedere sectorul medical, fără de care valorificarea resurselor naturale existente nu se poate face, formarea personalului implicat în furnizarea de servicii turistice, respectiv implicarea administraţiei locale în managementul implementării acestor proiecte de interes public.”
Două ţinte prioritare – istoria şi patrimoniul
\r\n „Pot să spun cu mâna pe inimă că atunci când se vorbeşte de dezvoltare în turism, mulţi nu deţin această bază fenomenală care se găseşte la Băile Herculane. Când se vorbeşte de turism la Băile Herculane abordăm un lucru foarte serios. Chiar există perspective ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Pnud-Herculane469.jpg\" "\\"Pnud")
optimiste pentru ca proiectele să devină realitate. Ţinta principală: cum putem dezvolta acest oraş prin intermediul turismului?”- sublinia Simona Pascariu, specialistă în urbanism. La rândul său Cătălina Preda, specialist pe patrimoniu spunea că: „Mă ocup în cadrul proiectului de punerea în valoare a patriomoniului şi de depistarea proiectelor prioritare din punct de vedere al memoriei locului, al clădirilor importante din toate cele trei localităţi. Sunt convinsă că pentru Băile Herculane, centrul istoric va fi chiar o piatră de încercare pentru că oraşul, fără valorificarea zonei istorice cu greu se va reechilibra. Deci sunt necesare investiţii majore şi întrebarea care se pune dacă proprietarii care au cumpărat pentru a doua sau a treia oară după prima privatizare, deţin resursele necesare acestui program.” Cât despre rolul său Mihai Lupu, specialist în mobilizare comunitară, arăta „În cadrul proiectului ne vom concentra pe sintetizarea informaţiilor disponibile la nivel de comunitate. Împreună cu asistentul local voi asigura legătura între comunitatea locală şi echipa de experţi”.

NICUŞOR VASILESCU: “Proiectele vor avea efecte considerabile asupra comunităţilor locale!”
- Domnule Vasilescu, în calitate de primar al staţiunii, care credeţi că au fost raţiunile ce au stat la baza alegerii Băilor Herculane printre cele trei localităţi beneficiare ale programului?
\r\n– Potenţialul turistic existent în acestă zonă, resursele naturale şi patrimoniul cultural istoric de excepţie cu care este înzestrată una din cele mai vechi staţiuni balneare ale lumii - Băile Herculane -, constituie considerente demne de luat în seamă pentru a selecta staţiunea de pe Valea Cernei în orice proiect important de reabilitare a turismului naţional. Nu multe locuri din lume se pot lăuda cu concentrarea unor asemenea valori care fac parte din patrimoniul universal.
\r\n- Ce impact va avea acest proiect !
\r\n– Avem în vedere o investiţie importantă pentru viitorul bimilenarei staţiuni de pe Valea Cernei. Prin acest proiect, Băile Herculane va avea avantajul unui plan de dezvoltare stimulat de comunitate, cu ţinte măsurabile, şi cu un sistem de monitorizare care va măsura realizările şi zonele unde mai sunt necesare intervenţii. Documentul final al proiectului va sintetiza concluziile echipei de experţi ce se vor concretiza într-un plan de acţiuni imediate, până la un an, pe termen scurt, între unu şi cinci ani şi pe termen mediu şi lung. Aceste acţiuni vor constitui teme de proiecte grupate pe priorităţi pentru care vom căuta să identificăm surse de finanţare. Implicarea Programului Naţiunilor Unite pentru Dezvoltare printr-o echipă multinaţională, conferă o notă de profesionalism proiectului iniţiat de MDRT. Am speranţa că Băile Herculane vor putea rivaliza din nou cu cele mai frumoase staţiuni de pe continent aşa cum se întâmpla pe vremea împăratului Franz Iosef.
\r\n– Care vor fi beneficiile comunităţii pe care o conduceţi ?
\r\n– Fără îndoială că turismul a fost şi va rămâne principalul motor al dezvoltării staţiunii Băile Herculane. Pornind de la ideea că o dezvoltare turistică durabilă nu poate fi generată decât de o comunitate locală prosperă, acest proiect urmăreşte ca, pe baza vizitelor în teren şi a consultării comunităţii locale de către echipa de experţi a PNUD, să genereze propuneri de iniţiative concrete în vederea dezvoltării integrate a zonei.
\r\n– Primăria a participat la ediţia din toamnă a Târgului de Turism al României cu un stand care a avut drept slogan “Staţiunea renaşte!”. Este acest proiect–pilot semnalul renaşterii staţiunii?
\r\n– Să fiţi convins de asta. Impactul proiectului despre care discutăm va fi unul major. Trebuie să menţionăm că Primăria Băile Herculane are deja, în curs de implementare o serie de proiecte care, cu siguranţă vor schimba faţa staţiunii de pe Valea Cernei. O mare parte au fost prezentate în paginile acestei reviste profesioniste. Aş dori să menţionez în primul rând acele proiecte care urmăresc reabilitarea tuturor străzilor, a podurilor, amenajarea peisagistică, modernizarea Parcului Central. În fază avansată de execuţie, se află reabilitarea infrastructurii fizice a Străzii romane, proiect realizat în cadrul unui program de cooperare trasfrontalieră cu Veliko Gradişte, oraş din Serbia, înfrăţit cu Băile Herculane.\r\nAmintesc apoi de proiectul cel mai spectaculos al staţiunii - construirea unui Aquapark de 1.600 locuri care va constitui o premiză importantă pentru dezvoltarea ofertei de agrement a staţiunii ce va atrage un număr sporit de turişti, în special din rândul populaţiei de vârstă activă. Din numeroasele proiecte aflate pe masa de lucru, care vizează dezvoltarea turistică a staţiunii, mai amintesc de: reabilitarea izvoarelor publice din staţiune, lucrările fiind deja terminate la Izvorul de ochi şi Izvorul de cură internă Diana III; reabilitarea traseelor turistice din zona montana a staţiunii; “Băile Herculane – emblemă turistică a Banatului montan” - proiect care are ca scop promovarea obiectivelor turistice, naturale şi antropice, din staţiune şi din împrejurimi; reabilitarea Vilei Elisabeta, care sperăm să se finalizeze anul acesta, mutarea şi amenajarea la standarde actuale a Muzeului de istorie „General Nicolae Cena” în cadrul Vilei Elisabeta după terminarea lucrărilor, transformarea cinematografului într-un centru multicultural, cu săli funcţionale de conferinţe, de spectacol, bibliotecă etc.
\r\nCa de obicei adresăm cititorilor salutul roman „SALUTI ET LAETITIAE!” („Sănătate şi bucurii!”) şi invitaţia de a veni la Băile Herculane pentru a ne redescoperi ospitalitatea.\r\nJIM FLANNERY: „Marketingul este cu siguranţă, o investiţie nu o cheltuială !”
\r\n- Domule Jim Flannery sunteţi reprezentantul Organizaţiei Mondiale a Turismului, în cadrul echipei de experţi ai PNUD. V-aţi născut într-un hotel, aţi crescut într-un hotel, primul loc de muncă a fost într-un hotel. Aţi lucrat în diferite organizaţii naţionale din Irlanda sau în programe internaţionale. Interesant este unul din primele mesaje transmise în cadrul întâlnirii de la Băile Herculane cu reprezentanţii sectorului turistic: “costurile legate de activităţile de marketing turistic nu trebuie privită ca nişte cheltuieli neproductive ci ca nişte investiţii!” De ce aţi considerat prioritar acest mesaj?
\r\n- Marketingul este o activitate importantă în dezvoltarea turismului care trebuie luată în calcul chiar de la începutul afacerii. A construi ceva în credinţa că vizitatorii vor veni de la sine ar putea fi caracterizat ca fiind o sinucidere economică. Costurile activităţii de marketing pot fi caracterizate în mod corespunzător mai degrabă ca o investiţie, decât ca o cheltuială, deoarece aceste costuri implicate aduc bani. Costurile caracterizate ca fiind cheltuieli nu produc neapărat bani.
\r\n- Participaţi, în calitate de specialist în domeniul turistic la un proiect important. Ce impresii v-a lăsat staţiunea Băile Herculane ?\r\n- Băile Herculane a fost odată un oraş foarte frumos, un important centru balnear cu proprietăţi curative. Desigur că staţiunea mai are încă aceste proprietăţi curative, dar frumusetea oraşului este subminată de către starea de degradare ale clădirilor vechi, altă dată frumoase. Nucleul de frumuseţe este încă acolo. E nevoie de muncă pentru a se restaura tot ceea ce a fost frumos odată. Staţiunea de acum ar putea fi descrisă ca fiind foarte „obosită”.
\r\n- Cu ce elemente consideraţi că ar trebui să vină oferta turistică a staţiunii pentru a fi competitivă pe piaţa turistică internaţională?
\r\n- Pentru a răspunde aşteptărilor turismului internaţional, staţiunea va trebui să fie reabilitată la un standard foarte ridicat de calitate cu hoteluri şi pensiuni modernizate care să furnizeze servicii de wellness, servicii curative cât şi atracţii turistice în aer liber în zonele înconjurătoare şi o gamă largă de restaurante. De asemenea va fi nevoie de mici centre de divertisment pentru vizitatori în special pentru a oferi vizitatorilor posibilitatea de a–şi petrece serile într-un mod cât mai plăcut şi atractiv.
\r\n- Puteţi oferi un prognoză turistică pentru cititorii revistei noastre !
\r\n- Turismul se află într-o etapă de mari schimbări în ceea ce priveşte modul în care comercializăm serviciile pe piaţa turistică şi modul în care vizitatorii noştri găsesc sursa de informaţii şi fac rezervări. Gama de opţiuni, acum disponibilă pentru turiştii din întreaga lume care au posibilitatea de a selecta unde să meargă şi ce să facă, este de o mie de ori mai mare decât a fost, sa zicem acum treizeci de ani. Aş dori să închei cu o notă pozitivă. Turismul este acum printre primele trei cele mai mari industrii din lume şi una dintre puţinele cu un trend crescător al veniturilor şi al ocupării forţei de muncă. Este o industrie pe val în care este bine să fii implicat! Şi România face parte din acest val.

Adoptat de Guvern la sfârşitul anului trecut, el se află în derulare, cei doi „dezvoltatori” fiind Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului şi Programul Naţiunilor Unite pentru Dezvoltare (PNUD). Cofinanţarea va fi asigurată, pe baza unui Acord ce prevede “Dezvoltarea urbană integrată în vederea reabilitării şi modernizării destinaţiilor turistice Borsec, Băile Herculane şi Sulina ca suport al activităţilor de turism durabil”. Cooperarea dintre Guvernul României şi PNUD se realizează în cadrul Programului de Ţară 2010 – 2012 şi face parte din Planului strategic naţional.
O echipă de experţi pe Valea Cernei
\nCe a fost? Din primele întâlniri avute cu reprezentanţii comunităţii locale a reieşit că există o motivaţie clară pentru proiect. Pe parcursul a trei vizite făcute la Băile Herculane, reprezentanţii Primăriei, condusă de Nicuşor Vasilescu, ai MDRT, ai specialiştilor în politici de integrare europeană şi de urbanism şi a celor din partea PNUD, au fost purtate discuţii edificatoare privind aşteptările participanţilor faţă de acest proiect. Au avut loc circa 30 de întâlniri individuale cu membri ai comunităţii locale, conducători de instituţii publice, administratori de pensiuni şi hoteluri. Echipa de experţi PNUD şi-a cristalizat o viziune asupra problemelor majore ale oraşului, asupra modului de percepţie a locuitorilor şi a gradului de implicare a acestora. La întâlniri a participat şi reprezentantul Organizaţiei
\n\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_1059\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"300\" caption=\"Jim Flanelly\"][/caption]\nMondiale a Turismului (OMT), Jim Flannery, specialist în domeniul turismului, în cadrul echipei de experţi PNUD.
\nUn plan viabil pentru resurse naturale
\nCe urmează? După identificarea soluţiilor, în cursul lunii februarie şi în următoarele vizite va avea loc o consultare publică în care vor fi prezentate membrilor comunităţii concluziile şi propunerile echipei PNUD. La Bucureşti va avea loc o întrunire a board-ului format din reprezentanţi ai MDRT, PNUD, OMT şi primarii celor trei localităţi care vor dezbate şi aproba documentul cu concluziile echipei de experţi.\nReferindu-se la impact Nic Ţarălungă, coordonatorul naţional de proiect, ne-a declarat: „Efectele vor fi finanţările pe care trebuie să le atragem şi prin care proiectele propuse vor deveni viabile. Spre sfârşitul lui martie se va realizarea un plan de acţiune pe proiecte prioritare, o evaluare a necesarului de bani pentru aceste proiecte. În etapa de implementare este necesară dezvoltarea unei activităţi de marketing a staţiunilor şi a ”produselor turistice” proprii. Al doilea element esenţial în dezvoltarea lor este implicarea proprietarilor în reabilitarea clădirilor cu funcţiuni turistice, cu precădere a celor cu valoarea de patrimoniu. Al treilea nivel de exprimare se referă la formarea resurselor umane. Am în vedere sectorul medical, fără de care valorificarea resurselor naturale existente nu se poate face, formarea personalului implicat în furnizarea de servicii turistice, respectiv implicarea administraţiei locale în managementul implementării acestor proiecte de interes public.”
Două ţinte prioritare – istoria şi patrimoniul
\n „Pot să spun cu mâna pe inimă că atunci când se vorbeşte de dezvoltare în turism, mulţi nu deţin această bază fenomenală care se găseşte la Băile Herculane. Când se vorbeşte de turism la Băile Herculane abordăm un lucru foarte serios. Chiar există perspective optimiste pentru ca proiectele să devină realitate. Ţinta principală: cum putem dezvolta acest oraş prin intermediul turismului?”- sublinia Simona Pascariu, specialistă în urbanism. La rândul său Cătălina Preda, specialist pe patrimoniu spunea că: „Mă ocup în cadrul proiectului de punerea în valoare a patriomoniului şi de depistarea proiectelor prioritare din punct de vedere al memoriei locului, al clădirilor importante din toate cele trei localităţi. Sunt convinsă că pentru Băile Herculane, centrul istoric va fi chiar o piatră de încercare pentru că oraşul, fără valorificarea zonei istorice cu greu se va reechilibra. Deci sunt necesare investiţii majore şi întrebarea care se pune dacă proprietarii care au cumpărat pentru a doua sau a treia oară după prima privatizare, deţin resursele necesare acestui program.” Cât despre rolul său Mihai Lupu, specialist în mobilizare comunitară, arăta „În cadrul proiectului ne vom concentra pe sintetizarea informaţiilor disponibile la nivel de comunitate. Împreună cu asistentul local voi asigura legătura între comunitatea locală şi echipa de experţi”.
NICUŞOR VASILESCU: “Proiectele vor avea efecte considerabile asupra comunităţilor locale!”
- Domnule Vasilescu, în calitate de primar al staţiunii, care credeţi că au fost raţiunile ce au stat la baza alegerii Băilor Herculane printre cele trei localităţi beneficiare ale programului?
\n– Potenţialul turistic existent în acestă zonă, resursele naturale şi patrimoniul cultural istoric de excepţie cu care este înzestrată una din cele mai vechi staţiuni balneare ale lumii - Băile Herculane -, constituie considerente demne de luat în seamă pentru a selecta staţiunea de pe Valea Cernei în orice proiect important de reabilitare a turismului naţional. Nu multe locuri din lume se pot lăuda cu concentrarea unor asemenea valori care fac parte din patrimoniul universal.
\n- Ce impact va avea acest proiect !
\n– Avem în vedere o investiţie importantă pentru viitorul bimilenarei staţiuni de pe Valea Cernei. Prin acest proiect, Băile Herculane va avea avantajul unui plan de dezvoltare stimulat de comunitate, cu ţinte măsurabile, şi cu un sistem de monitorizare care va măsura realizările şi zonele unde mai sunt necesare intervenţii. Documentul final al proiectului va sintetiza concluziile echipei de experţi ce se vor concretiza într-un plan de acţiuni imediate, până la un an, pe termen scurt, între unu şi cinci ani şi pe termen mediu şi lung. Aceste acţiuni vor constitui teme de proiecte grupate pe priorităţi pentru care vom căuta să identificăm surse de finanţare. Implicarea Programului Naţiunilor Unite pentru Dezvoltare printr-o echipă multinaţională, conferă o notă de profesionalism proiectului iniţiat de MDRT. Am speranţa că Băile Herculane vor putea rivaliza din nou cu cele mai frumoase staţiuni de pe continent aşa cum se întâmpla pe vremea împăratului Franz Iosef.
\n– Care vor fi beneficiile comunităţii pe care o conduceţi ?
\n– Fără îndoială că turismul a fost şi va rămâne principalul motor al dezvoltării staţiunii Băile Herculane. Pornind de la ideea că o dezvoltare turistică durabilă nu poate fi generată decât de o comunitate locală prosperă, acest proiect urmăreşte ca, pe baza vizitelor în teren şi a consultării comunităţii locale de către echipa de experţi a PNUD, să genereze propuneri de iniţiative concrete în vederea dezvoltării integrate a zonei.
\n– Primăria a participat la ediţia din toamnă a Târgului de Turism al României cu un stand care a avut drept slogan “Staţiunea renaşte!”. Este acest proiect–pilot semnalul renaşterii staţiunii?
\n– Să fiţi convins de asta. Impactul proiectului despre care discutăm va fi unul major. Trebuie să menţionăm că Primăria Băile Herculane are deja, în curs de implementare o serie de proiecte care, cu siguranţă vor schimba faţa staţiunii de pe Valea Cernei. O mare parte au fost prezentate în paginile acestei reviste profesioniste. Aş dori să menţionez în primul rând acele proiecte care urmăresc reabilitarea tuturor străzilor, a podurilor, amenajarea peisagistică, modernizarea Parcului Central. În fază avansată de execuţie, se află reabilitarea infrastructurii fizice a Străzii romane, proiect realizat în cadrul unui program de cooperare trasfrontalieră cu Veliko Gradişte, oraş din Serbia, înfrăţit cu Băile Herculane.\nAmintesc apoi de proiectul cel mai spectaculos al staţiunii - construirea unui Aquapark de 1.600 locuri care va constitui o premiză importantă pentru dezvoltarea ofertei de agrement a staţiunii ce va atrage un număr sporit de turişti, în special din rândul populaţiei de vârstă activă. Din numeroasele proiecte aflate pe masa de lucru, care vizează dezvoltarea turistică a staţiunii, mai amintesc de: reabilitarea izvoarelor publice din staţiune, lucrările fiind deja terminate la Izvorul de ochi şi Izvorul de cură internă Diana III; reabilitarea traseelor turistice din zona montana a staţiunii; “Băile Herculane – emblemă turistică a Banatului montan” - proiect care are ca scop promovarea obiectivelor turistice, naturale şi antropice, din staţiune şi din împrejurimi; reabilitarea Vilei Elisabeta, care sperăm să se finalizeze anul acesta, mutarea şi amenajarea la standarde actuale a Muzeului de istorie „General Nicolae Cena” în cadrul Vilei Elisabeta după terminarea lucrărilor, transformarea cinematografului într-un centru multicultural, cu săli funcţionale de conferinţe, de spectacol, bibliotecă etc.\n\nCa de obicei adresăm cititorilor salutul roman „SALUTI ET LAETITIAE!” („Sănătate şi bucurii!”) şi invitaţia de a veni la Băile Herculane pentru a ne redescoperi ospitalitatea.
\n\nJIM FLANNERY: „Marketingul este cu siguranţă, o investiţie nu o cheltuială !”
\n- Domule Jim Flannery sunteţi reprezentantul Organizaţiei Mondiale a Turismului, în cadrul echipei de experţi ai PNUD. V-aţi născut într-un hotel, aţi crescut într-un hotel, primul loc de muncă a fost într-un hotel. Aţi lucrat în diferite organizaţii naţionale din Irlanda sau în programe internaţionale. Interesant este unul din primele mesaje transmise în cadrul întâlnirii de la Băile Herculane cu reprezentanţii sectorului turistic: “costurile legate de activităţile de marketing turistic nu trebuie privită ca nişte cheltuieli neproductive ci ca nişte investiţii!” De ce aţi considerat prioritar acest mesaj?
\n- Marketingul este o activitate importantă în dezvoltarea turismului care trebuie luată în calcul chiar de la începutul afacerii. A construi ceva în credinţa că vizitatorii vor veni de la sine ar putea fi caracterizat ca fiind o sinucidere economică. Costurile activităţii de marketing pot fi caracterizate în mod corespunzător mai degrabă ca o investiţie, decât ca o cheltuială, deoarece aceste costuri implicate aduc bani. Costurile caracterizate ca fiind cheltuieli nu produc neapărat bani.\n\n- Participaţi, în calitate de specialist în domeniul turistic la un proiect important. Ce impresii v-a lăsat staţiunea Băile Herculane ?
\n- Băile Herculane a fost odată un oraş foarte frumos, un important centru balnear cu proprietăţi curative. Desigur că staţiunea mai are încă aceste proprietăţi curative, dar frumusetea oraşului este subminată de către starea de degradare ale clădirilor vechi, altă dată frumoase. Nucleul de frumuseţe este încă acolo. E nevoie de muncă pentru a se restaura tot ceea ce a fost frumos odată. Staţiunea de acum ar putea fi descrisă ca fiind foarte „obosită”.
\n- Cu ce elemente consideraţi că ar trebui să vină oferta turistică a staţiunii pentru a fi competitivă pe piaţa turistică internaţională?
\n- Pentru a răspunde aşteptărilor turismului internaţional, staţiunea va trebui să fie reabilitată la un standard foarte ridicat de calitate cu hoteluri şi pensiuni modernizate care să furnizeze servicii de wellness, servicii curative cât şi atracţii turistice în aer liber în zonele înconjurătoare şi o gamă largă de restaurante. De asemenea va fi nevoie de mici centre de divertisment pentru vizitatori în special pentru a oferi vizitatorilor posibilitatea de a–şi petrece serile într-un mod cât mai plăcut şi atractiv.
\n- Puteţi oferi un prognoză turistică pentru cititorii revistei noastre !
\n- Turismul se află într-o etapă de mari schimbări în ceea ce priveşte modul în care comercializăm serviciile pe piaţa turistică şi modul în care vizitatorii noştri găsesc sursa de informaţii şi fac rezervări. Gama de opţiuni, acum disponibilă pentru turiştii din întreaga lume care au posibilitatea de a selecta unde să meargă şi ce să facă, este de o mie de ori mai mare decât a fost, sa zicem acum treizeci de ani. Aş dori să închei cu o notă pozitivă. Turismul este acum printre primele trei cele mai mari industrii din lume şi una dintre puţinele cu un trend crescător al veniturilor şi al ocupării forţei de muncă. Este o industrie pe val în care este bine să fii implicat! Şi România face parte din acest val.

\r\nDeşi toată lumea se plânge de criza financiară, sau o ia pe post de scuză în business, în domeniul turismului statisticile înregistează creştere... pe toată linia! Comisia Europeană de Travel (CET) indică procente peste anul 2008 iar analizele World Travel Market de anul trecut vorbesc despre noile trenduri: moda de a alege călătorii cu destinaţie necunoscută sau plata serviciilor cu telefonul mobil.
Publicat în luna ianuarie de către Comisia Europeană de Travel raportul „European Tourism in 2011 – Trends &Prospects” arată că anul trecut a marcat un record pentru industria călătoriilor din Europa. Vizitele internaţionale în Europa au crescut cu 6%, depăşind astfel vârful înregistrat în 2008. Companiile aeriene au servit cu 5% mai mulţi pasageri ca în 2010, iar hotelurile au indicat o creştere de 3,2% a gradului de ocupare. Numărul de turişti a crescut în 22 din 23 de ţări raportoare, creşterea variind de la 3% în Marea Britanie, la peste 20% în Letonia şi Lituania. În timp ce pieţele tradiţionale vestice ale turismului european stagnează sau cresc foarte puţin, Europa de Est pare a recupera teren în plin sezon: gradul de ocupare al hotelurilor a crescut cu 10,4% in luna august a anului trecut, faţă de aceeaşi perioadă din 2010.\r\n\r\nRomânia se încadrează în topul ţărilor cu indicatori ascedenţi, înregistrând 12,4% mai multe sosiri, şi o mărire cu 8,5% la gradul de ocupare. Conform analizei gradul de ocupare pe piaţa hotelieră ar fi de 60% în 2011. Cu toţi aceşti indicatori optimişti Comisia Europeană de Travel anunţă pentru 2012 o scădere de 1% a vizitelor internaţionale în Europa şi o creştere de doar 0,8% pentru 2013.
\r\n
Mai mulţi şi buni!
\r\nPe acest fond specialiştii par să se fi pus de acord că cei mai buni turişti vor proveni din SUA şi China. Un studiu cerut de Hilton Hotels&Resorts arată că în 2010 Europa a fost vizitată de circa 3 milioane de turişti chinezi. Ei s-au îndreptat cu precădere spre ţări bine promovate şi cunoscute, precum Italia, Franţa şi Germania.\r\n\r\nÎn continuare analizele spun că piaţa asiatică va fi un furnizor constant pentru Europa, în creştere cu câteva sute de mii de călători în fiecare an. Pentru anul 2020 ar trebui să ne pregătim să vedem în jur de 8,6 milioane clienţi chinezi! Se estimează că în perioada 2010-2015 ei vor fi o sursă extraordinară de venit, aducând cei mai mulţi bani după turiştii americani. Deja cu un pas înainte, companiile hoteliere au început să-şi reorienteze campaniile de promovare a brandurilor către piaţa asiatică, mai ales către clienţii corporate, şi să se gândească la a produce servicii speciale.\r\n\r\nDeşi americanii călătoresc mai aproape de casă ei rămân clienţi bănoşi, cu o medie de 4% creştere a cheltuielilor efectuate în străinătate. În 2010 călătoriile peste oceane ale americanilor au scăzut cu 6%, în timp Mexicul şi Canada au crescut cu 3, respectiv 1%. În top 5 destinaţii favorite găsim: Mexicul (20 milioane), Canada (11.7 milioane), Marea Britanie (2.4 milioane), Republica Dominicană (1.8 milioane), Franţa şi Italia (fiecare cu câte 1.8 milioane).
\r\n
Unde se vând “pachete misterioase”!
\r\nÎn urma Târgului de turism desfăşurat în toamnă, la Londra, World Travel Market 2011, au rezultat câteva observaţii interesante cu privire la profilul noilor consumatori de turism. În SUA pare a fi venit moda pachetelor turistice “misterioase”. Clienţii între 20 şi 34 ani licitează online pe pachete anunţate de către agenţi ca fiind cu 50% mai ieftine la momentul respectiv. Turistul cumpără dar nu ştie ce. Coordonatele călătoriei (destinaţie, hoteluri, condiţii) sunt necunoscute la momentul achiziţiei, urmând a le fi transmise ulterior. Pentru cei aventuroşi există o variantă în care detaliile fiecărei zile sunt transmise pe telefon sau mail! Tot cu mobilul se descurcă şi continentul african, unde plata cu telefonul (M-commerce) este la ordinea zilei. 60% din utilizatorii de telefoane cu servicii internet plătesc astfel. Serviciul de transfer bani prin telefonul mobil, M-PESA, facilitează kenyenilor fără conturi bancare achiziţia de călătorii sau bilete de avion. În 2010 Kenya Airways şi Uganda Airlines au intrat în sistemul M-PESA. Anul trecut creşterea PIB pe continentul african a fost de 5%.
\r\n
Orientul Mijlociu – în scădere
\r\nDupă creşterea de 11,5 % din 2010 a pieţelor din Orientul Mijlociu, anul trecut instabilitatea zonei a dus la o cădere de 6,2 % a incomingului. Mai multe ţări anunţă noi campanii de promovare şi se estimează o revenire cu 1,3% în 2012.\r\nTurismul european se va menţine probabil, fără surprize pe parcursul acestui an, într-un echilibru tradiţional. O nouă orientare, interesantă, este cea a hotelierilor care încep promovarea produselor locale. Multe unităţi îşi atrag chiar clienţii prin meniurile restaurantelor în care apar legume cultivate în grădinile proprii! Şi că tot veni vorba de grădini, în Marea Britanie, turiştii activi, mobili, au găsit o nouă variantă de cazare: închiriază o grădină în care să-şi pună rulota! Soluţia ingenioasă a fost găsită ca o alternativă la cazările tradiţonale, din cauza Jocurilor Olimpice preţurile la hoteluri înregistrând o creştere de până la cinci ori. Una dintre concluziile specialiştilor care s-au întâlnit la WTM 2011 a fost că, pentru toate pieţele, bătălia pe termen lung va fi câştigată de campanile de marketing online, în timp ce aplicaţiile pentru noile suporturi media vor avea de câştigat pe termen mediu.

Poţi să nu înţelegi arta, să nu ai o pasiune pentru istorie sau să ţi se pară toate statuile cam la fel. Însă de Florenţa te vei îndrăgosti, primavara, aşa cum se întâmplă de puţine ori în viaţă: cu un sentiment strălucitor de bine, frumos şi lăsându-te cucerit de un cer albastru fără limite.
Santa Maria Novella, staţia centrală de tren, este la cam 15 minute de mers spre orice obiectiv central ai vrea să atingi în Florenţa. Ai însemnat cu roşu pe hartă: Domul, Piaţa Signoriei, Academia cu statuia originală David, a lui Michelangelo, şi muzeul Uffizi, la care se înghesuie toate naţiile, de multe ori neştiind pentru ce. Însă, până să ajungi la ce ţi-ai propus, primăvara Florenţei te-a întâlnit şi te ia de mână.
\r\nOcru pe fond albastru![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/florenta-5.jpg\" "\\"OLYMPUS")
Oraşul vechi pare că te respinge şi te cheamă în acelaşi timp. Străzile înguste, cu clădiri de maxim trei caturi, strâng între ele trotuare pline de motorete. La toate colţurile sunt restaurante şi băruleţe, cu vitrine ce expun dulciuri languroase sau nelipsitele sanvişuri cu şuncă crudă (panini con prosciuto) ori tăvi de pizza feliată.\r\nCu ochii la delicatese treci fără să vrei pe lângă palatele renascentiste, cu piatra ocru tăiată în piramide. Masive, cu porţi ghintuite, enorme, cetăţi în sine, ele ascund capele, muzee, fresce celebre, oprind timpul dar şi trecătorul ca să-i arate că încă respiră: Medici Riccardi, Corsi, Strozi etc. Curţile interioare te uimesc prin sobrietate dar şi prin eleganţa fină a bolţilor, coloanelor, ferestrelor. Cerul apare albastru, strâns între ziduri, vibrant şi te îmbie zburdalnic să mergi mai departe.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/florenta-3.jpg\" "\\"OLYMPUS")
În piaţa mare se pierde timpul cu ochii la mărfuri diverse, la fel şi pe străzile dimprejurul Capelei Medici, unde emigranţi de toate naţiile vând universalele şaluri de pashmina, genţi de piele, mărci „originale”contrafăcute cu talent etc. Te rupi de tentaţie şi intri la Capele ca să vezi cum a înţeles să arate Michelangelo „Ziua” şi „Noaptea”, „Amurgul” şi „Răsăritul”, în valuri de marmură albă, neagră, gri parcă stropit ori verde malachit.
Ape de marmură verde
\r\nOdată ieşit culoarea începe să te însoţească ca o umbră peste tot, să te domine cu existenţa ei aievea dar imposibil de palpat. Şi nimic nu te poate pregăti pentru întâlnirea cu buchetul de nuanţe şi sclipiri ale Domului. Din orice parte a oraşului ai intra în piaţa San Giovanni, imaginea apare brusc, şi îţi taie respiraţia. Apele de marmură verde, roz, gri, răspândite în sute de nişe, vibrează sub cerul primăverii, de parcă ar vrea să fie un cântec. Frumuseţea nebănuită îţi dă atâta energie încât să poţi urca cele peste 400 de scări ale turnului construit de Giotto (Campanile). De acolo nu vrei să mai cobori. Florenţa Renaşterii se întinde, aproape de tine, primindu-te între dealurile cu păduri, aliniamentul străzilor şi caselor cu terase-grădini cu portocali. Turle şi turnuri par că vor să atingă norii. Bargello, fostă închisoare, muzeu azi, marchează aria străzilor legate de o altă primăvară a frumuseţii, povestea lui Dante şi Beatrice.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/florenta-9.jpg\" "\\"OLYMPUS")
Alb voluptos
\r\nDe la Dom mergi către Piazza della Signoria, împins de mulţimile de vizitatori de magazine de marcă, localnici ieşiţi fără grabă la plimbare şi la o cafea excelentă de un euro. Piaţa aceasta, apropiată de râul Arno, surprinde prin spaţiul pe care-l creează, ca o desfacere cu largheţe a unei mantale pământii. Terasele te îmbie să stai şi să priveşti spectacolul artei, la un pahar. Turiştii pozează în faţa statuilor celebre, voluptos de albe, impasibile, splendide. David în copie nu impresionează nici pe departe la fel ca originalul de la Academie, însă sabinele dramatic şi gentil răpite alături, în lojă, Loggia dei Lanzi, te prind în dansul lor spiralat. De multe ori aici, amiezile sunt umplute de cer albastru şi melodii celebre cântate cu patimă la chitară.\r\nPrimăvara fuge din tablou, trece pe străzi, pe lângă cozile silenţioase de vizitatori de la Galeriile Uffizi, pe lângă chipurile celebre ale renaşcentiştilor reprezentaţi în nişele palatului.

COSTA DEL SOL - Ferestre spre vacanţe
\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Spania-costa-032.jpg\" "\\"Spania")
Februarie. În România crivăţul ne-a îmbrăcat în cristale de gheaţă. Este atât de frig, încât simţi nevoia să te protejezi şi să pleci spre o destinaţie mai caldă. Dacă n-ai timp de o insulă exotică, Fuengirola, pe Costa del Sol spaniolă, pare soluţia optimă.\r\n\r\nE o staţiune recunoscută pentru climatul blând, cu 365 de zile însorite. 6 kilomentri de plajă cu nisip fin şi o faleză turistică amenajată cu sute de baruri, cafenele, restaurante şi magazine pentru toate gusturile. Nu lipseşte nici trenuleţul turistic, care pentru 5 euro, te plimbă cât e ziua de mare prin localitate. Staţiunea, bine sistematizată, îţi oferă o privelişte spectaculoasă asupra ţărmului. Bulevarde largi o străbat, în spatele acestora ascunzându-se străzile tradiţionale, cu căsuţe cochete, restaurante familiale, cafenele şi magazine cu tot felul de chilipiruri. Sigur, nu poţi scăpa ocazia să-ţi oferi plăcerea unei cafele aromate, stropită, discret cu un pahar licoros de Torres, faimosul coniac spaniol. Tot aşa, de la masa de prânz nu poate să lipsească un pahar de vin de Malaga.\r\n\r\nÎncearcă măgăruşul-taxi![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Spania-costa-077.jpg\" "\\"Spania")
\r\nExcursiile de o zi, pe diverse trasee, sunt o modalitate excelentă de relaxare. Mijas, sătucul cocoţat pe un deal, îţi oferă spectacolul măgăruşilor taxi, o armată disciplinată care se află la... dispoziţia turiştilor. Produsele din piele, faima artizanatului local, atrag turiştii la fel ca micul schit datînd din sec XVII, închinat Fecioarei Maria, Virgen de la Pena. Localitatea e foarte curtată de către artiştii plastici din întreaga lume, aşa că mulţi dintre ei au proprietăţi cumpărate ori închiriate aici. Un Centru de informare se dovedeşte cât se poate de util prin cantitatea de materiale turistice care ţi se pun la dispoziţie.\r\n\r\nCu Banderas la El Pimpi\r\nPoţi pleca şi spre Malaga. Oraşul cu dulci arome, oferă prilejul unei zile de neuitat, mai ales că se află la nici 50 de kilometri de Fuengirola. Muzeul Picasso, mândria oraşului, deschis în 2003, este adăpostit în Palacio de Buenavista, un elegant edificiu renascentist unde poţi trăi un adevărat spectacol cultural. Nici o cafea nu este mai savuroasă decât cea servită in răcorosul patio al muzeului. Aici e locul de taină al scriitorilor şi artiştilor conteporani. Vizita la Malaga nu este completă fără catedrala La Manquita, poreclită şi... bătrâna cu un braţ, construită în secolul al XVI-lea şi castelul Gibralfaro care domină centrul vechi. Tot aici, pe străduţele înguste aproape de catedrală, dă colţul şi intră la „El Pimpi”, pentru o cină şi admiră autografele date pe capacele butoaielor de către prinţi, scriitori, toreadori, artişti, ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Spania-costa-303.jpg\" "\\"Spania")
actori - Paloma Picasso şi Antonio Banderas, fiind doar doi dintre ei. Bine, pentru Banderas există un cult extraordinar în rândul localnicilor.\r\n\r\nCu mic cu mare spre Granada \r\nOdată apetitul deschis, drumul tău trebuie să treacă neapărat, prin inima Andaluziei, pînă la Granada, oraşul cu cel mai minunat complex muzeal, moştenire culturală strălucitoare a civilizaţiei maure. Drumul cu autocarul curge domol printre coline blînde şi livezi de măslini. Pe măsură ce te apropii de Granada peisajul este dominat de Sacromonte, Alhambra şi Albaicino, colinele ce definesc aşezarea. Oraşul te înghite imediat şi te pierzi în fluxul turiştilor. Acesta te poartă pe străzi încărcate de istorie, astfel că, în mod firesc, ajungi în cel mai vechi cartier al oraşului, Albaicin. N-ai cum să te rătăceşti. Pentru că în toată zona eşti ghidat de indicatoare ce-ţi semalează atracţiile ce merită vizitate. Poţi aborda chiar şi un circuit vini-viticol. Doar suntem în zona unor faimoase vinuri. Pe cele mai multe clădiri istorice se află fixate plăci metalice pe care sunt înscrise cele mai importante informaţii. Şi după un tur de câţiva kilometri, pe care nici nu-i simţi decât după ce ţi s-au înmuiat picioarele, constaţi cu surprindere că ai ajuns la poalele Alhambrei. Zidurile înalte şi crenelurile acestora par greu de atins. Aşa că o cafea servită la Passeo de los Tristes, una dintre bodegile... clasice, te ţintuieşte în scaun cu capul înălţat spre minunea din deal. Darro, rîul ce curge în faţa ta, pare şi el un obstacol între tine şi palat. De fapt, drumul spre monument se face cu autocarul, pe o şosea modernă, oferindu-ţi o panoramă spectaculoasă asupra oraşului. Dar nimic din ceea ce ai văzut pînă aici, nici o documentare prealabilă, nu te pregăteşte îndejuns pentru ceea ce urmează. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Spaniacosta-088.jpg\" "\\"Spaniacosta")
Când, în sfârşit ajuns sus, cobori din autocar, şi privirea îţi fuge spre ferestrele ce dau spre metereze. Simţi nevoia să te uiţi în jos şi vezi piaţeta unde ai băut cea mai bună cafea şi parcă ai vrea să o iei de la început.\r\n\r\nNe reîntoarcem la hotel, unde cea mai bună alegere este o seara tradiţională de flamenco, dansul specific Andaluziei, esenţa sufletului său. Fie este un cadou oferit de hotel, fie e subiectul unui program opţional. Apoi ieşi pe terasa hotelului şi admiri iarna, în februarie, luminată de reflexele albastre ale Mediteranei şi florile albe ale alunilor sălbatici care îmbracă din plin colinele andaluze. Gândul ţi se reîntoarce la Alhambra. Locul e fabulos. Şi merită o poveste separată.

Însă de Florenţa te vei îndrăgosti, primavara, aşa cum se întâmplă de puţine ori în viaţă: cu un sentiment strălucitor de bine, frumos şi lăsându-te cucerit de un cer albastru fără limite.
\nSanta Maria Novella, staţia centrală de tren, este la cam 15 minute de mers spre orice obiectiv central ai vrea să atingi în Florenţa. Ai însemnat cu roşu pe hartă: Domul, Piaţa Signoriei, Academia cu statuia originală David, a lui Michelangelo, şi muzeul Uffizi, la care se înghesuie toate naţiile, de multe ori neştiind pentru ce. Însă, până să ajungi la ce ţi-ai propus, primăvara Florenţei te-a întâlnit şi te ia de mână.
\nOcru pe fond albastru
\nOraşul vechi pare că te respinge şi te cheamă în acelaşi timp. Străzile înguste, cu clădiri de maxim trei caturi, strâng între ele trotuare pline de motorete. La toate colţurile sunt restaurante şi băruleţe, cu vitrine ce expun dulciuri languroase sau nelipsitele sanvişuri cu şuncă crudă (panini con prosciuto) ori tăvi de pizza feliată.\nCu ochii la delicatese treci fără să vrei pe lângă palatele renascentiste, cu piatra ocru tăiată în piramide. Masive, cu porţi ghintuite, enorme, cetăţi în sine, ele ascund capele, muzee, fresce celebre, oprind timpul dar şi trecătorul ca să-i arate că încă respiră: Medici Riccardi, Corsi, Strozi etc. Curţile interioare te uimesc prin sobrietate dar şi prin eleganţa fină a bolţilor, coloanelor, ferestrelor. Cerul apare albastru, strâns între ziduri, vibrant şi te îmbie zburdalnic să mergi mai departe.\nÎn piaţa mare se pierde timpul cu ochii la mărfuri diverse, la fel şi pe străzile dimprejurul Capelei Medici, unde emigranţi de toate naţiile vând universalele şaluri de pashmina, genţi de piele, mărci „originale”contrafăcute cu talent etc. Te rupi de tentaţie şi intri la Capele ca să vezi cum a înţeles să arate Michelangelo „Ziua” şi „Noaptea”, „Amurgul” şi „Răsăritul”, în valuri de marmură albă, neagră, gri parcă stropit ori verde malachit.
\nApe de marmură verde
\nOdată ieşit culoarea începe să te însoţească ca o umbră peste tot, să te domine cu existenţa ei aievea dar imposibil de palpat. Şi nimic nu te poate pregăti pentru întâlnirea cu buchetul de nuanţe şi sclipiri ale Domului. Din orice parte a oraşului ai intra în piaţa San Giovanni, imaginea apare brusc, şi îţi taie respiraţia. Apele de marmură verde, roz, gri, răspândite în sute de nişe, vibrează sub cerul primăverii, de parcă ar vrea să fie un cântec. Frumuseţea nebănuită îţi dă atâta energie încât să poţi urca cele peste 400 de scări ale turnului construit de Giotto (Campanile). De acolo nu vrei să mai cobori. Florenţa Renaşterii se întinde, aproape de tine, primindu-te între dealurile cu păduri, aliniamentul străzilor şi caselor cu terase-grădini cu portocali. Turle şi turnuri par că vor să atingă norii. Bargello, fostă închisoare, muzeu azi, marchează aria străzilor legate de o altă primăvară a frumuseţii, povestea lui Dante şi Beatrice.
\nAlb voluptos
\nDe la Dom mergi către Piazza della Signoria, împins de mulţimile de vizitatori de magazine de marcă, localnici ieşiţi fără grabă la plimbare şi la o cafea excelentă de un euro. Piaţa aceasta, apropiată de râul Arno, surprinde prin spaţiul pe care-l creează, ca o desfacere cu largheţe a unei mantale pământii. Terasele te îmbie să stai şi să priveşti spectacolul artei, la un pahar. Turiştii pozează în faţa statuilor celebre, voluptos de albe, impasibile, splendide. David în copie nu impresionează nici pe departe la fel ca originalul de la Academie, însă sabinele dramatic şi gentil răpite alături, în lojă, Loggia dei Lanzi, te prind în dansul lor spiralat. De multe ori aici, amiezile sunt umplute de cer albastru şi melodii celebre cântate cu patimă la chitară.\nPrimăvara fuge din tablou, trece pe străzi, pe lângă cozile silenţioase de vizitatori de la Galeriile Uffizi, pe lângă chipurile celebre ale renaşcentiştilor reprezentaţi în nişele palatului. Întâlneşte râul Arno cu podul său greoi, plin acum de magazine de bijuterii cu briliante. Cellini, un orfevru celebru, azi e înconjurat de garduri pe care iubiţii moderni închid lacăte cu numele lor scrise cu carioca. Şi chiar şi detaliul acesta pare a se potrivi, la fel ca magazinul cu obiecte de design interior care, în bolţile sale vechi, are tapetat un colaj cu o statuie pe care deja o cunoşti.\nÎn des citatul oraş toscan, arta, frumuseţea, nu au rămas o medalie a renaşterii, înghesuită într-un muzeu. În Florenţa arta e ca o primăvară. Ea respiră peste tot, pe străzi, în muzee, în magazine, restaurante.

Lanţurile internaţionale încep să exporte la Bucureşti “racheţi operaţionali” care să le reformuleze şi maximizeze profitul. Criza circulaţiei turistice dar şi concurenţa neloială în materie de tarife îi determină pe manageri să privească altfel viitorul. Investiţiile în hoteluri nu mai sunt suficiente. Cine vrea, vede clar cum tinerii neliniştiţi urcă cu noi discursuri scările din turism. Interesant este de urmărit spectacolul lumii, adică dacă tinereţea îşi va găsi drumul spre cariere.
TOP MANAGEMENT\r\nNou manager la Novotel Bucarest
\r\nLuc Gesvret, directorul regional al lanţului Accor pentru Cehia şi România l-a prezentat pe noul director general al Hotelul Novotel Bucarest City Centre în persoana lui Stéphane Barbazan. Acesta deţine o mare experienţă, acumulată pe parcursul a 22 de ani de când activează în industria hotelieră. El a ocupat funcţii de conducere în diferite unităţi din Europa, Oceanul Indian, Africa de Nord, America de Nord şi Caraibe. Barbazan a venit la Bucureşti din oraşul Shenzhen (China) unde a condus hotelul de 5 stele, Grand ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Novotel-barzavan.jpg\" "\\"Novotel")
Mercure Oriental Ginza. După cum a declarat acesta “piaţa românească are un potenţial foarte ridicat iar misiunea mea este ca, alături de o echipă tânără şi foarte motivată, să poziţionăm noi servicii de calitate, să creem plusvaloare acestui brand foarte respectat în lanţul Accor”.
Sind Tour l-a adus pe Paul Mărăşoiu\r\nRadomir Stoicovici, directorul Sind Tour Trading pentru sucursala Herculane a anunţat o investiţie de 1,5 milioane de euro în modernizarea hotelului Domogled din staţiunea Băile Herculane. El are o capacitate de 138 de camere, dispune de un restaurant şi o bază de tratament, în prezent închise. După ce lucrările vor fi finalizate complexul Domogled va fi clasificat la un nivel superior, de 3 stele, iar baza de tratament va fi dotată cu facilităţi moderne şi aparatură competitivă. De asemenea la sfârşitul anului Sind Tour Trading a anunţat o schimbare în managementul companiei pe segmentul coordonării activităţii hoteliere. El a fost preluat de către Paul Mărăşoiu, care l-a înlocuit pe Michele Meoni (care a mai manageriat în România strategia lanţului ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Notovel-noaptea-031.jpg\" "\\"Notovel")

vecine. Chiar şi în condiţiile majorării taxelor şi impozitelor, dublării costurilor pentru utilităţi, şi a taxelor supradimensionate privind forţa de muncă, hotelierii români au reuşit în 2011 să scadă tarifele cu 30 de procente comparativ cu 2010, şi să rămână jucători competitivi pe piaţa europeană. Cel puţin aşa arată un studiu efectuat de Federaţia Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR), ce a sintetizat rezultatele unei analize comparative între România şi ţări ca Ungaria, Austria şi Bulgaria, în ceea ce priveşte tarifele de cazare din capitalele acestor ţări pe perioada Sărbătorilor de Iarnă, precum şi ofertele restaurantelor pentru Crăciun şi Revelion.\r\n\r\nTarifele din România în 2011 au înregistrat o scădere cu 30% faţă de anul anterior, chiar şi în condiţiile majorării taxelor şi impozitelor şi a creşterii costurilor la utilităţi cu 50%. În ce priveşte taxele aferente salariilor, plătite către stat, se afirmă că România se situeaza între ţările « fruntaşe » în ceea ce priveşte costul cu forţa de muncă, acesta fiind considerabil mai mare, cu aproape 30%, comparativ cu Bulgaria, cu 11% faţă de Austria şi comparabil cu Ungaria. De asemenea, România ocupă primul loc în topul ţărilor în ceea ce priveşte numărul contribuţiilor la stat, 10 la număr, urmată de Ungaria şi Bulgaria, unde angajatorii plătesc doar 8 asemenea taxe. « Din păcate, turismul românesc nu beneficiază de aceeaşi promovare externă ca ţările cu care ne comparăm, iar acesta constituie un motiv în plus pentru a considera eforturile foarte mari făcute de patronii din turism. Este ca şi cum am trăi în două ţări diferite. Pe de o parte, patronii sunt obligaţi să ofere servicii la preţuri competitive, însă pe plan economic, ei se confruntă cu taxe şi cheltuieli exagerate » – subliniază Mohammad Murad, preşedintele FPTR.\r\nTRANZACŢII\r\nUnita vrea să vândă
\r\nCompania Unita Turism, controlată de Josef Goshy a anunţat scoaterea la vânzare a Complexulului hotelier Amfiteatru, Belvedere şi Panoramic din staţiunea Olimp. Suma anunţată pentru eventualii cumpărători este de 60 de milioane de euro. Complexul a fost achiziţionat la începtul anului 2008 cu 30 de milioane de euro. Goschy a declarat că decizia a fost luată deoarece e nevoie de bani pentru realizarea un amplu program de investiţii în celelalte hoteluri care fac parte din lanţul Unita. Printre acestea se numără Belvedere din Cluj, Moldova din Iaşi şi două hoteluri din Orşova şi Suceava. Unita Turism operează 25 de hoteluri care cumulează peste 3.500 de camere şi 7.000 de locuri în restaurante.
\r\nINVESTIŢII\r\nSolarex se orientează spre Aquastar
\r\nCompania Solarex (care îi are ca acţionari pe Karoly Marton Nagy - 40%, Erzsebet Nagy - 40% şi Noemi Baranyai - 20%, deţine hotelul Astoria şi agenţia de turism Solarex Tour din Satu Mare), a anunţat accesarea unei finanţări de peste 6 milioane de euro de la Eximbank. Suma va fi investită în realizarea unui complex de sănătate, care va valorifica apa geotermală din zonă. El beneficiază şi de o finanţare nerambursabilă în valoare de 5,5 milioane de euro, sumă obţinută prin Programul Operaţional Regional 2007-2013. Lucrările de construcţie a Parcului Acvatic Aquastar sunt efectuate de către compania constănţeană Tehnoclima General Construct iar finalizarea lor e prevăzută pentru toamna acestui an. Proiectul, care va genera circa 60 de locuri de muncă permanente, prevede clădiri cu 4 piscine interioare, cu o suprafaţă de 650 metri pătraţi, care vor fi funcţionale şi iarna, 5 piscine exterioare, cu o suprafaţă totală de 955 metri pătraţi şi un Centru de sănătate şi tratament dotat cu 7 tipuri de saună, hidroterapie, kinetoterapie şi electroterapie. Capacitatea de primire a Parcului acvatic va fi de circa 1.700 de persoane pe zi.\r\n20 de milioane pentru sănătate.\r\n\r\nCompania Romaqua Group a anunţat că se va implica în turismul balnear din staţiunea Borsec. Nicolae Palfi, vicepreşedintele companiei a declarat că un hotel vechi, achiziţionat anul trecut, va fi dezafectat. Pe locul acestuia va fi construit un complex nou. Decizia a fost luată deoarece investiţia în renovarea hotelului existent ar fi fost mai mare decât în cazul construirii altuia modern. Noua unitate va avea specific balnear, va deservi interesele companiei dar va fi deschis şi pentru circuitul public. Investiţia finală s-ar putea ridica la circa 20 de milioane de euro, a mai anunţat Palfi.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU & ANGELA SIMION','În hotelărie vine timpul tinerilor… neliniştiţi-INDUSTRIE HOTELIERA nr 95','','publish','open','open','','in-hotelarie-vine-timpul-tinerilor%e2%80%a6-nelinistiti-industrie-hoteliera-nr-95','','','2012-03-12 23:48:10','2012-03-12 21:48:10','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=1074',0,'post','',1),(1075,1,'2012-03-12 14:28:58','2012-03-12 12:28:58','','Hotel inalt','','inherit','open','open','','hotel-inalt','','','2012-03-12 14:28:58','2012-03-12 12:28:58','',1074,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Hotel-inalt.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1076,1,'2012-03-12 14:29:31','2012-03-12 12:29:31','','Novotel barzavan','','inherit','open','open','','novotel-barzavan','','','2012-03-12 14:29:31','2012-03-12 12:29:31','',1074,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Novotel-barzavan.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1077,1,'2012-03-12 14:29:53','2012-03-12 12:29:53','','Notovel noaptea 031','','inherit','open','open','','notovel-noaptea-031','','','2012-03-12 14:29:53','2012-03-12 12:29:53','',1074,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Notovel-noaptea-031.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1078,1,'2012-03-12 14:30:07','2012-03-12 12:30:07','','Hotel lat','','inherit','open','open','','hotel-lat','','','2012-03-12 14:30:07','2012-03-12 12:30:07','',1074,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Hotel-lat.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1079,1,'2012-03-12 14:28:38','2012-03-12 12:28:38','În hotelărie vine timpul tinerilor… neliniştiţi
\nLanţurile internaţionale încep să exporte la Bucureşti “racheţi operaţionali” care să le reformuleze şi maximizeze profitul. Criza circulaţiei turistice dar şi concurenţa neloială în materie de tarife îi determină pe manageri să privească altfel viitorul. Investiţiile în hoteluri nu mai sunt suficiente. Cine vrea, vede clar cum tinerii neliniştiţi urcă cu noi discursuri scările din turism. Interesant este de urmărit spectacolul lumii, adică dacă tinereţea îşi va găsi drumul spre cariere.
\n\nTOP MANAGEMENT\nNou manager la Novotel Bucarest
\nLuc Gesvret, directorul regional al lanţului Accor pentru Cehia şi România l-a prezentat pe noul director general al Hotelul Novotel Bucarest City Centre în persoana lui Stéphane Barbazan. Acesta deţine o mare experienţă, acumulată pe parcursul a 22 de ani de când activează în industria hotelieră. El a ocupat funcţii de conducere în diferite unităţi din Europa, Oceanul Indian, Africa de Nord, America de Nord şi Caraibe. Barbazan a venit la Bucureşti din oraşul Shenzhen (China) unde a condus hotelul de 5 stele, Grand Mercure Oriental Ginza. După cum a declarat acesta “piaţa românească are un potenţial foarte ridicat iar misiunea mea este ca, alături de o echipă tânără şi foarte motivată, să poziţionăm noi servicii de calitate, să creem plusvaloare acestui brand foarte respectat în lanţul Accor”.
\n\nSind Tour l-a adus pe Paul Mărăşoiu\nRadomir Stoicovici, directorul Sind Tour Trading pentru sucursala Herculane a anunţat o investiţie de 1,5 milioane de euro în modernizarea hotelului Domogled din staţiunea Băile Herculane. El are o capacitate de 138 de camere, dispune de un restaurant şi o bază de tratament, în prezent închise. După ce lucrările vor fi finalizate complexul Domogled va fi clasificat la un nivel superior, de 3 stele, iar baza de tratament va fi dotată cu facilităţi moderne şi aparatură competitivă. De asemenea la sfârşitul anului Sind Tour Trading a anunţat o schimbare în managementul companiei pe segmentul coordonării activităţii hoteliere. El a fost preluat de către Paul Mărăşoiu, care l-a înlocuit pe Michele Meoni (care a mai manageriat în România strategia lanţului Continental). Sind Tour Trading deţine 7 complexe şi 11 vile primite în administrare din portofoliul Sind România în 6 locaţii: hotelurile Muncel din Băile Felix, Dacia şi Domogled din Băile Herculane, Montana în Covasna, Someşul în Sângeorz Băi, Brădişor şi Vidruţa din Voineasa, respectiv mai multe vile şi apartamente la Vidra şi Voineasa.\n\nTENDINŢE\nScade taxa hotelieră\n\nDin luna ianuarie taxa hotelieră a scăzut la 1%, şi va fi aceeaşi în toată ţara ca urmare a noilor reglementări privind Codul Fiscal, care uniformizeaza valorarea taxei hoteliere la nivel naţional. Taxa hotelieră reprezintă un procent din valoarea totală a cazării pentru fiecare zi de sejur a turistului. De asemenea, potrivit noului Cod fiscal, aprobat în luna august 2011, cota de impozit pe clădirile cu destinaţie turistică care nu funcţionează în decursul unui an calendaristic va fi de minimum 5% din valoarea de inventar a clădirii. O alta decizie, de la care se aşteaptă prelungirea sezonului turistic pe litoral, constă în reducerea cu 50% a impozitului pe clădirile şi terenurile situate pe litoralul Mării Negre, deţinute de persoane juridice şi folosite în scop turistic pentru o perioadă de minimum 6 luni dintr-un an an calendaristic.\n\nSuntem pe locul 1 la birurile fiscale \nHotelurile din România practică tarife comparabile sau chiar mai scăzute faţă de ţările vecine.

Însă de Florenţa te vei îndrăgosti, primavara, aşa cum se întâmplă de puţine ori în viaţă: cu un sentiment strălucitor de bine, frumos şi lăsându-te cucerit de un cer albastru fără limite.
Santa Maria Novella, staţia centrală de tren, este la cam 15 minute de mers spre orice obiectiv central ai vrea să atingi în Florenţa. Ai însemnat cu roşu pe hartă: Domul, Piaţa Signoriei, Academia cu statuia originală David, a lui Michelangelo, şi muzeul Uffizi, la care se înghesuie toate naţiile, de multe ori neştiind pentru ce. Însă, până să ajungi la ce ţi-ai propus, primăvara Florenţei te-a întâlnit şi te ia de mână.
\r\nOcru pe fond albastru
Oraşul vechi pare că te respinge şi te cheamă în acelaşi timp. Străzile înguste, cu clădiri de maxim trei caturi, strâng între ele trotuare pline de motorete. La toate colţurile sunt restaurante şi băruleţe, cu vitrine ce expun dulciuri languroase sau nelipsitele sanvişuri cu şuncă crudă (panini con prosciuto) ori tăvi de pizza feliată.\r\nCu ochii la delicatese treci fără să vrei pe lângă palatele renascentiste, cu piatra ocru tăiată în piramide. Masive, cu porţi ghintuite, enorme, cetăţi în sine, ele ascund capele, muzee, fresce celebre, oprind timpul dar şi trecătorul ca să-i arate că încă respiră: Medici Riccardi, Corsi, Strozi etc. Curţile interioare te uimesc prin sobrietate dar şi prin eleganţa fină a bolţilor, coloanelor, ferestrelor. Cerul apare albastru, strâns între ziduri, vibrant şi te îmbie zburdalnic să mergi mai departe.\r\nÎn piaţa mare se pierde timpul cu ochii la mărfuri diverse, la fel şi pe străzile dimprejurul Capelei Medici, unde emigranţi de toate naţiile vând universalele şaluri de pashmina, genţi de piele, mărci „originale”contrafăcute cu talent etc. Te rupi de tentaţie şi intri la Capele ca să vezi cum a înţeles să arate Michelangelo „Ziua” şi „Noaptea”, „Amurgul” şi „Răsăritul”, în valuri de marmură albă, neagră, gri parcă stropit ori verde malachit.
Ape de marmură verde
\r\nOdată ieşit culoarea începe să te însoţească ca o umbră peste tot, să te domine cu existenţa ei aievea dar imposibil de palpat. Şi nimic nu te poate pregăti pentru întâlnirea cu buchetul de nuanţe şi sclipiri ale Domului. Din orice parte a oraşului ai intra în piaţa San Giovanni, imaginea apare brusc, şi îţi taie respiraţia. Apele de marmură verde, roz, gri, răspândite în sute de nişe, vibrează sub cerul primăverii, de parcă ar vrea să fie un cântec. Frumuseţea nebănuită îţi dă atâta energie încât să poţi urca cele peste 400 de scări ale turnului construit de Giotto (Campanile). De acolo nu vrei să mai cobori. Florenţa Renaşterii se întinde, aproape de tine, primindu-te între dealurile cu păduri, aliniamentul străzilor şi caselor cu terase-grădini cu portocali. Turle şi turnuri par că vor să atingă norii. Bargello, fostă închisoare, muzeu azi, marchează aria străzilor legate de o altă primăvară a frumuseţii, povestea lui Dante şi Beatrice.
Alb voluptos
\r\nDe la Dom mergi către Piazza della Signoria, împins de mulţimile de vizitatori de magazine de marcă, localnici ieşiţi fără grabă la plimbare şi la o cafea excelentă de un euro. Piaţa aceasta, apropiată de râul Arno, surprinde prin spaţiul pe care-l creează, ca o desfacere cu largheţe a unei mantale pământii. Terasele te îmbie să stai şi să priveşti spectacolul artei, la un pahar. Turiştii pozează în faţa statuilor celebre, voluptos de albe, impasibile, splendide. David în copie nu impresionează nici pe departe la fel ca originalul de la Academie, însă sabinele dramatic şi gentil răpite alături, în lojă, Loggia dei Lanzi, te prind în dansul lor spiralat. De multe ori aici, amiezile sunt umplute de cer albastru şi melodii celebre cântate cu patimă la chitară.\r\nPrimăvara fuge din tablou, trece pe străzi, pe lângă cozile silenţioase de vizitatori de la Galeriile Uffizi, pe lângă chipurile celebre ale renaşcentiştilor reprezentaţi în nişele palatului. Întâlneşte râul Arno cu podul său greoi, plin acum de magazine de bijuterii cu briliante. Cellini, un orfevru celebru, azi e înconjurat de garduri pe care iubiţii moderni închid lacăte cu numele lor scrise cu carioca. Şi chiar şi detaliul acesta pare a se potrivi, la fel ca magazinul cu obiecte de design interior care, în bolţile sale vechi, are tapetat un colaj cu o statuie pe care deja o cunoşti.\r\nÎn des citatul oraş toscan, arta, frumuseţea, nu au rămas o medalie a renaşterii, înghesuită într-un muzeu. În Florenţa arta e ca o primăvară. Ea respiră peste tot, pe străzi, în muzee, în magazine, restaurante. Îţi surâde, te ia de mână, îţi lasă în palmă un bileţel pe care-l vei reciti odată ajuns acasă şi vei vrea să te întorci.

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
COSTA DEL SOL - Ferestre spre vacanţe\r\n\r\nFebruarie. În România crivăţul ne-a îmbrăcat în cristale de gheaţă. Este atât de frig, încât simţi nevoia să te protejezi şi să pleci spre o destinaţie mai caldă. Dacă n-ai timp de o insulă exotică, Fuengirola, pe Costa del Sol spaniolă, pare soluţia optimă.\r\n\r\nE o staţiune recunoscută pentru climatul blând, cu 365 de zile însorite. 6 kilomentri de plajă cu nisip fin şi o faleză turistică amenajată cu sute de baruri, cafenele, restaurante şi magazine pentru toate gusturile. Nu lipseşte nici trenuleţul turistic, care pentru 5 euro, te plimbă cât e ziua de mare prin localitate. Staţiunea, bine sistematizată, îţi oferă o privelişte spectaculoasă asupra ţărmului. Bulevarde largi o străbat, în spatele acestora ascunzându-se străzile tradiţionale, cu căsuţe cochete, restaurante familiale, cafenele şi magazine cu tot felul de chilipiruri. Sigur, nu poţi scăpa ocazia să-ţi oferi plăcerea unei cafele aromate, stropită, discret cu un pahar licoros de Torres, faimosul coniac spaniol. Tot aşa, de la masa de prânz nu poate să lipsească un pahar de vin de Malaga.\r\n\r\nÎncearcă măgăruşul-taxi\r\nExcursiile de o zi, pe diverse trasee, sunt o modalitate excelentă de relaxare. Mijas, sătucul cocoţat pe un deal, îţi oferă spectacolul măgăruşilor taxi, o armată disciplinată care se află la... dispoziţia turiştilor. Produsele din piele, faima artizanatului local, atrag turiştii la fel ca micul schit datînd din sec XVII, închinat Fecioarei Maria, Virgen de la Pena. Localitatea e foarte curtată de către artiştii plastici din întreaga lume, aşa că mulţi dintre ei au proprietăţi cumpărate ori închiriate aici. Un Centru de informare se dovedeşte cât se poate de util prin cantitatea de materiale turistice care ţi se pun la dispoziţie.\r\n\r\nCu Banderas la El Pimpi\r\nPoţi pleca şi spre Malaga. Oraşul cu dulci arome, oferă prilejul unei zile de neuitat, mai ales că se află la nici 50 de kilometri de Fuengirola. Muzeul Picasso, mândria oraşului, deschis în 2003, este adăpostit în Palacio de Buenavista, un elegant edificiu renascentist unde poţi trăi un adevărat spectacol cultural. Nici o cafea nu este mai savuroasă decât cea servită in răcorosul patio al muzeului. Aici e locul de taină al scriitorilor şi artiştilor conteporani. Vizita la Malaga nu este completă fără catedrala La Manquita, poreclită şi... bătrâna cu un braţ, construită în secolul al XVI-lea şi castelul Gibralfaro care domină centrul vechi. Tot aici, pe străduţele înguste aproape de catedrală, dă colţul şi intră la „El Pimpi”, pentru o cină şi admiră autografele date pe capacele butoaielor de către prinţi, scriitori, toreadori, artişti, actori - Paloma Picasso şi Antonio Banderas, fiind doar doi dintre ei. Bine, pentru Banderas există un cult extraordinar în rândul localnicilor.\r\n\r\n\r\nCu mic cu mare spre Granada \r\nOdată apetitul deschis, drumul tău trebuie să treacă neapărat, prin inima Andaluziei, pînă la Granada, oraşul cu cel mai minunat complex muzeal, moştenire culturală strălucitoare a civilizaţiei maure. Drumul cu autocarul curge domol printre coline blînde şi livezi de măslini. Pe măsură ce te apropii de Granada peisajul este dominat de Sacromonte, Alhambra şi Albaicino, colinele ce definesc aşezarea. Oraşul te înghite imediat şi te pierzi în fluxul turiştilor. Acesta te poartă pe străzi încărcate de istorie, astfel că, în mod firesc, ajungi în cel mai vechi cartier al oraşului, Albaicin. N-ai cum să te rătăceşti. Pentru că în toată zona eşti ghidat de indicatoare ce-ţi semalează atracţiile ce merită vizitate. Poţi aborda chiar şi un circuit vini-viticol. Doar suntem în zona unor faimoase vinuri. Pe cele mai multe clădiri istorice se află fixate plăci metalice pe care sunt înscrise cele mai importante informaţii. Şi după un tur de câţiva kilometri, pe care nici nu-i simţi decât după ce ţi s-au înmuiat picioarele, constaţi cu surprindere că ai ajuns la poalele Alhambrei. Zidurile înalte şi crenelurile acestora par greu de atins. Aşa că o cafea servită la Passeo de los Tristes, una dintre bodegile... clasice, te ţintuieşte în scaun cu capul înălţat spre minunea din deal. Darro, rîul ce curge în faţa ta, pare şi el un obstacol între tine şi palat. De fapt, drumul spre monument se face cu autocarul, pe o şosea modernă, oferindu-ţi o panoramă spectaculoasă asupra oraşului. Dar nimic din ceea ce ai văzut pînă aici, nici o documentare prealabilă, nu te pregăteşte îndejuns pentru ceea ce urmează. Când, în sfârşit ajuns sus, cobori din autocar, şi privirea îţi fuge spre ferestrele ce dau spre metereze. Simţi nevoia să te uiţi în jos şi vezi piaţeta unde ai băut cea mai bună cafea şi parcă ai vrea să o iei de la început.\r\n\r\nNe reîntoarcem la hotel, unde cea mai bună alegere este o seara tradiţională de flamenco, dansul specific Andaluziei, esenţa sufletului său. Fie este un cadou oferit de hotel, fie e subiectul unui program opţional. Apoi ieşi pe terasa hotelului şi admiri iarna, în februarie, luminată de reflexele albastre ale Mediteranei şi florile albe ale alunilor sălbatici care îmbracă din plin colinele andaluze. Gândul ţi se reîntoarce la Alhambra. Locul e fabulos. Şi merită o poveste separată. O vom publica într-un număr viitor.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU

După cum ne-a declarat Sorin Dencescu, preşedintele Krontur Expo, “TTF a parcurs etapele de la târg zonal la târg naţional, devenind de la ediţia trecută, târg cu participare internaţională! La târgul din acest an şi-au anunţat deja participarea peste 70 dintre cele mai mari agenţii de turism din ţară, ţări ca Ungaria şi Bulgaria, prezente în premieră cu standuri naţionale, Republica Moldova, Cipru etc, numeroase asociaţii regionale de promovare, unităţi de consultanţă şi învăţământ şi, nu în ultimul rând, Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului şi\r\nAsociaţia Naţională a Agenţiilor de Turism (ANAT).\r\n\r\nUn spaţiu distinct va fi dedicat Primăriei Braşovului care a fost încă de la prima ediţie susţinătorul acestei manifestări.

Apropiata ediţie va fi susţinută de: Dertour România (sponsor principal), Austrian, Lufthansa, Swiss şi Tess (sponsori). Agenda manifestărilor se anunţă extrem de interesantă incluzând mese rotunde şi simpozioane susţinute de: Oficiul de Turism al Ungariei la Cluj ce va prezenta o parte dintre cele mai interesante destinaţii naţionale în cadrul unui workshop; Dertour va reuni specialiştii săi într-un seminar de specialitate; Asociaţia Metropolitană Braşov va patrona Conferinţa Regională a ONG-urilor din Transilvania care activeaza în domeniul turismului, iar Asociaţia de Promovare şi Dezvoltare Turistică Braşov(APDTB) va organiza o masă rotundă cu tema “Circuite turistic in Transilvania”.

Considerat a fi un fenomen specific civilizaţiei moderne, turismul este puternic ancorat în viaţa societăţii, fiind influenţat, la rândul său, în evoluţia comunităţilor. Manifestarea expoziţională se află la ediţia a VI-a, fiind un eveniment promoţional cu impact asupra mediului de afaceri din Regiune de nord-est. Printre expozanţi se vor număra agenţii de turism şi tour-operatori, complexe hoteliere, alte unităţi de cazare, companii ce derulează programe pentru turism de afaceri şi turism cultural, turism rural şi turism ecologic. Vor fi expuse echipamente pentru hoteluri şi restaurante, programe IT aplicabile în această industrie, sisteme de rezervări, produse ale unor edituri şi publicaţii turistice – ne-a informat managerul de proiect Adrian Nechita. Revista noastră este partener media al acestui eveniment.\r\n\r\n@ A FOST LANSATĂ A IV-A EDIŢIE DE “ÎNSCRIERI TIMPURII DE VARĂ”. În cadrul campaniei sunt acordate reduceri de până la 30% pentru turiştii care vor achiziţiona de la agenţiile membre ANAT un pachet de servicii turistice cu plata integrală, în perioada 1 februarie - 31 martie 2012. Pot fi cumpărate pachete turistice pentru petrecerea concediului de vară în intervalul mai - septembrie 2011. Oferta cuprinde unităţi de cazare de la 2 la 5 stele pe Litoral, din staţiunile montane, balneare şi agroturistice şi în Delta Dunării. Programul “Înscrieri Timpurii” a fost iniţiat şi dezvoltat de ANAT în parteneriat cu patronatele şi mediul organizaţional. Marea noutate a ediţiei 2012 este faptul că tarifele vor fi valabile şi pentru agenţiile ANAT Moldova. “În acest fel, vom atrage un număr mai mare de turişti de Republica Moldova şi în acelaşi timp vom avea şi o mai bună promovare a ofertei noastre de vacanţe”– a precizat Marius Usturoiu, preşedintele Comisia de Turism Intern a ANAT.\r\n\r\n@ ARTĂ ŞI VIN. Cunoscutul editor Constantin Dumitru a lansat primul număr al revistei „Piaţa de artă”, o iniţiativă susţinută de artiştii plastici, proprietari de galerii, colecţionari ori oameni de afaceri, printre care se numără Sergio Faleschini, proprietarul Vinarte. Evenimentul s-a consumat cu prilejul vernisării expoziţiei „Dar din har” semnată de artistul Mihail Gavril. Ideea convergentă a acestor manifestări pereche, găzduite de sala „Constantin Brâncuşi” de la Palatul Parlamentului, este că arta se armonizează perfect cu vinul şi turismul iar o revistă de profil poate constitui un suport de promovare a unor produse, comerciale ori artistice, de calitate superioară. În ceea ce priveşte creaţiile pictorului Mihai Gavril, am remarcat colecţia de tablouri inspirate de insula grecească Santorini, una dintre cele mai frumoase din lume.\r\n\r\n@ AUSTRIA ÎNCEPE SĂ-ŞI REVINĂ. După doi ani de scădere, austriecii au înregistrat în 2011 un record cu privire la numărul de oaspeţi: 34,6 de milioane de sosiri, care a marcat o creştere de 3,6% respectiv 1,2 milioane faţă de anul precedent. Şi la înnoptări s-a înregistrat o creştere de 0,8% respectiv 1,1 milioane în cifre absolute. În ceea ce priveşte piaţa românească şi aici s-a înregistrat un reviriment. După scăderile din anii 2009 (-13,6%) şi 2010 (-4,4%) în Austria au călătorit anul trecut 275.800 de români, ceea ce marchează o creştere de 5,5%. Românii au consumat de asemenea 853.800 nopţi, în creştere cu 3,8%. În 2008, anul recordului absolut, Austria a înregistrat un număr de 898.000 înnoptări provenite din România. Ei da, dar în 2008 Austria îşi promova atracţiile în România cu bugete consistente spre deosebire de ultimii ani în care s-a rezumat doar la campanii…gratuite. Şi pentru asemenea “campanii” specialiştii de la Biroul care se ocupă cu promovarea Austriei în ţara noastră, au găsit câţiva figuranţi în mass media. Atât au investit, atât au obţinut.\r\n\r\n@ SUS LA VIDRA, SUS ! În sfârşit s-a gândit cineva şi la Vidra, din staţiunea Voineasa (judeţul Vâlcea). Investitorul nu este unul privat ci Ministerul de resort care sprijină o investiţie ce prevede dezvoltarea domeniului schiabil de la Vidra. Proiectul are o valoare totală de 140 de milioane de lei şi a demarat în vara acestui an. Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului asigură finanţarea proiectului, în timp ce beneficiarul, Consiliul Local Voineasa, gestionează atribuirea şi urmărirea contractelor aferente. Stadiul actual de execuţie este de circa 70%. Proiectul include realizarea a 4 pârtii de schi cu o lungime totală de 9 kilometri, prevăzute cu sistem de înzăpezire şi instalaţii de transport pe cablu care totalizează peste 5 kilometri (telescaun – 1.800 metri, teleschi - 733 metri şi o telegondolă de 3 kilometri cu staţie intermediară).\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Ev-schi.jpg\" "\\"Ev")
@ O SĂ SCHIAŢI ŞI LA... POARTA RAIULUI. În următorii ani va fi dezvoltat un nou domeniu schiabil în Munţii Sebeşului, la Poarta Raiului. Proiectul prevede amenajarea a şapte pârtii care vor avea o lungime totală de 16 kilometri. Punctul de pornire va fi pe Vârful lui Pătru, iar cel de sosire în Poarta Raiului, respectiv în Luncile Prigoanei. Conform Consiliului Judeţean Alba terenul pe care se amenajează “Domeniul schiabil Valea Sebeşului”, are o suprafaţă totală de 73 de hectare şi se află în proprietatea comunelor Săsciori şi Şugag. Investiţia este estimată la 35 de milioane de euro iar finalizarea lucrărilor este prevăzută pentru anul 2015. Dezvoltarea pe Valea Sebeşului a unei zone turistice destinată schiului este prevăzută în Programul Naţional de Dezvoltare a Turismului “Schi în România” şi în Strategia judeţului Alba în domeniul turismului.\r\n\r\n4 decenii în bucătăria… românească\r\n\r\nCea mai veche Asociaţie profesională din România – ANBCT – a împlinit patru decenii de existenţă. La sfârşitul anului 1971 lua fiinţă Asociaţia Bucătarilor şi Cofetarilor din România (ABC), a cărui primă structură de conducere era formată din Berbece ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/EvAnbct-008.jpg\" "\\"EvAnbct")
Constantin (preşedinte), Burtea Dumitru, Cotan Vasilica şi Mihai Constantin (vicepreşedinţi), Ceară Cornelia (secretar). Scopul declarat al organizaţiei a fost de a contribui la dezvoltarea meseriilor din domeniul producţiei culinare, organizarea de acţiuni profesionale şi participarea la evenimente internaţionale. În acelaşi an asociaţia a aderat la FIC (Federaţia Internaţională a Bucătarilor) ce va deveni ulterior WACS (World Association of Chefs Societies – Asociaţia Mondială a Societăţilor de Bucătari).\r\n\r\nDupă 1995, ABC s-a reorganizat sub denumirea de Asociaţia Naţională a Bucătarilor şi Cofetarilor din Turism din România (ANBCT). „Deşi au existat numeroase dificultăţi am participat la evenimente mondiale de top, unde am obţinut peste 50 de diplome, medalii şi trofee. Ele au recompensat în primul rând şcoala de gastronomie românească, şi sublinez acest lucru în pofida unor afirmaţii făcute de amatori care vor să acrediteze ideea că românii nu excelează în acest domeniu. Am dovedit contrariul la concursurile internaţionale, congrese mondiale, expoziţii, târguri şi cursuri profesionale pentru specializarea bucătarilor, pregătindu-i pentru obţinerea titlului de « Maestru în Arta Culinară». România a fost în prim planul unor mari competiţii internaţionale de prestigiu: Budapesta (1962), Praga (1968), la toate cele 10 olimpiadele gastronomice şi la 12 Congrese mondiale. Prima participare a ţării noastre la Concursul Mondial al Tinerilor Bucătari şi Cofetari s-a produs la Maastricht – Olanda (2000), organizat cu ocazia Congresului WACS. Anul 2008 a marcat aderarea elitei maeştrilor români la asociaţia europeană de bucătari Euro-Toques International (ETI), prin Asociaţia Euro-Toques România, care în prezent are peste 50 membri » - rememorează Dumitru Burtea, membru de Onoare al WACS, azi Preşedintele Euro-Toques România şi Preşedinte de Onoare ANBCT.\r\n\r\nÎn opinia domniei sale ţara noastră are nevoie de un «Institut de gastronomie sau o şcoală de formare profesională, care să promoveze în rândul tinerilor apetitul pentru asemenea cariere. Astfel gastronomia românească va putea fi promovată la nivel de artă aşa cum se întâmplă azi în majoritatea ţărilor cu tradiţie turistică».\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON\r\n\r\nArcul de Triumf va intra în circuitele turistice\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Ev-Arc-de-triumf.jpg\" "\\"Ev")
Primarul capitalei Sorin Oprescu a anunţat că Arcul de Triumf, va fi consolidat, restaurant şi conservat pe baza unui proiect aprobat şi finanţat prin Programul Operaţional Regional. Obiectivul va cunoaşte o serie de reamenajări care îi vor permite să fie integrat în circuitele turistice. Lucrările constau în amenajarea în interiorul monumentului istoric a mai multor spaţii expoziţionale pentru lucrări de artă şi a unor căi de acces pentru pietoni. Proiectul, coordonat de către Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului, urmăreşte atragerea unui număr de aproximativ 25.000 de vizitatori în primul an după deschiderea publică. Prin implementarea lui vor fi create 12 locuri de muncă permanente. Valoarea totală a proiectului, care se va derula pe parcursul a 37 de luni, este de peste 30 de milioane de lei, din care 22 de milioane reprezintă finanţarea nerambursabilă.\r\n\r\nAcesta este unul dintre cele mai recente proiecte din cele peste 2.600 finanţate de către MDRT, în calitate de Autoritate de Management a POR. Valoarea totală a lor se ridică la 5 miliarde de euro. Până acum ministerul a efectuat plăţi de aproape 1,1 miliarde de euro.\r\n\r\nO provocare pentru schiori – pârtii online\r\n\r\n114 pârtii de schi din 14 judete din România sunt promovate online şi prin pliante turistice gratuite. Ele au fost lansate la Braşov în cadrul unei campanii derulată de Groove Hour, în parteneriat cu Federaţia Asociaţiilor de Promovare Turistică din România şi Asociaţia ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Ev-schi1.jpg\" "\\"Ev")
pentru Promovarea şi Dezvoltarea Turismului din judeţul amintit. Această a doua ediţie a celui mai amplu proiect de informare turistică dedicat sporturilor de iarnă, cunoscut ca “i-Tour Schi-2012” este consolidată de Ciuc Premium.\r\n\r\nConceptul aduce o noutate în cadrul proiectului, prin gruparea domeniilor schiabile pe regiuni geografice, ceea ce permite promovarea lor încrucişată. Astfel turiştii sunt mai bine informaţi despre ofertele pentru schi din14 judeţe din Ardeal, Banat şi Valea Jiului, Covasna şi Harghita, Maramureş, Moldova şi Valea Prahovei. Cele 6 seturi de materiale, tipărite în peste 220.000 de exemplare au fost deja distribuite către 254 de hoteluri, pensiuni, vile şi centre infoturistice din ţară amplasate în 40 de localităţi.\r\n\r\nDe asemenea pliantele pot fi descărcate online şi de pe www.i-tour.ro. “Ciuc Premium s-a asociat şi în acest an campaniei “i-Tour Schi”, pentru că este un proiect ce pune în valoare patrimoniul turistic naţional. Continuăm, astfel, să susţinem tradiţia şi turismul montan activ din România” - a declarat Gabriela Gălăţanu, Group Brand Manager.\r\n\r\nBucureştiul e şi cool şi în Top 100\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Ev-Arc-de-triumf1.jpg\" "\\"Ev")
De reţinut, pentru tineri. Conform unui studiu efectuat de site-ul slate.fr, Capitala României se află pe locul 2, în Top 25 al celor mai cool oraşe în care merită să mergi la studii. Printre segmentele evaluate se numără preţurile la cazare, masă, băuturi şi transport, dar şi ponderea pe care o au studenţii (circa 24%) în totalul populaţiei. Acestea sunt doar o parte din cele 11 repere care au fost luate în consideraţie în realizarea indexului. Primul loc a fost adjudecat de către Lisabona.\r\n\r\nPe de altă parte conform unui clasament recent, realizat de Euromonitor International, Bucureştiul ocupă locul 55 în topul celor mai vizitate 100 de oraşe din lume de către turiştii internaţionali. În 2010 oraşul a primit 2,1 milioane de vizitatori, cu 5,4% mai mare comparativ cu 2009. Cei mai mulţi vizitatori, din ţările aflate în Europa Centrală, de Est şi Sud-Est au înregistrat Praga şi Moscova, câte 3,7 milioane de vizitatori, urmate de Viena - 3,5 milioane, Kiev - 3,3 milioane şi Budapesta - 2,6 milioane.','Marian Constantinescu a primit al doilea TOSCAR - EVENIMENTE NR.95','','publish','open','open','','marian-constantinescu-a-primit-al-doilea-toscar-evenimente-nr-95','','','2012-03-12 23:47:49','2012-03-12 21:47:49','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=1080',0,'post','',0),(1081,1,'2012-03-12 16:53:07','2012-03-12 14:53:07','','EvToscar1','','inherit','open','open','','evtoscar1','','','2012-03-12 16:53:07','2012-03-12 14:53:07','',1080,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/EvToscar1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1082,1,'2012-03-12 16:53:35','2012-03-12 14:53:35','','EvToscar1','','inherit','open','open','','evtoscar1-2','','','2012-03-12 16:53:35','2012-03-12 14:53:35','',1080,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/EvToscar11.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1083,1,'2012-03-12 16:54:19','2012-03-12 14:54:19','','Ev Brasov 1','','inherit','open','open','','ev-brasov-1','','','2012-03-12 16:54:19','2012-03-12 14:54:19','',1080,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Ev-Brasov-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1084,1,'2012-03-12 16:55:01','2012-03-12 14:55:01','','Ev Brasov dencescu 2','','inherit','open','open','','ev-brasov-dencescu-2','','','2012-03-12 16:55:01','2012-03-12 14:55:01','',1080,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Ev-Brasov-dencescu-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1085,1,'2012-03-12 16:56:47','2012-03-12 14:56:47','','Ev schi','','inherit','open','open','','ev-schi','','','2012-03-12 16:56:47','2012-03-12 14:56:47','',1080,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Ev-schi.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1086,1,'2012-03-12 16:58:06','2012-03-12 14:58:06','','EvAnbct 008','','inherit','open','open','','evanbct-008','','','2012-03-12 16:58:06','2012-03-12 14:58:06','',1080,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/EvAnbct-008.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1087,1,'2012-03-12 16:58:32','2012-03-12 14:58:32','','Ev Arc de triumf','','inherit','open','open','','ev-arc-de-triumf','','','2012-03-12 16:58:32','2012-03-12 14:58:32','',1080,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Ev-Arc-de-triumf.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1088,1,'2012-03-12 16:59:14','2012-03-12 14:59:14','','Ev Arc de triumf','','inherit','open','open','','ev-arc-de-triumf-2','','','2012-03-12 16:59:14','2012-03-12 14:59:14','',1080,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Ev-Arc-de-triumf1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1089,1,'2012-03-12 16:59:36','2012-03-12 14:59:36','','Ev schi','','inherit','open','open','','ev-schi-2','','','2012-03-12 16:59:36','2012-03-12 14:59:36','',1080,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Ev-schi1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1090,1,'2012-03-12 17:00:03','2012-03-12 15:00:03','Marian Constantinescu a primit al doilea TOSCAR\n\nLa Gala Travelport desfăşurată la Bucureşti scriitorul şi editorul Marian Constantinescu a primit premiu şi statuetă TOSCAR, pentru Best Media Partner 2011.

În ceea ce priveşte creaţiile pictorului Mihai Gavril, am remarcat colecţia de tablouri inspirate de insula grecească Santorini, una dintre cele mai frumoase din lume.\n\n@ AUSTRIA ÎNCEPE SĂ-ŞI REVINĂ. După doi ani de scădere, austriecii au înregistrat în 2011 un record cu privire la numărul de oaspeţi: 34,6 de milioane de sosiri, care a marcat o creştere de 3,6% respectiv 1,2 milioane faţă de anul precedent. Şi la înnoptări s-a înregistrat o creştere de 0,8% respectiv 1,1 milioane în cifre absolute. În ceea ce priveşte piaţa românească şi aici s-a înregistrat un reviriment. După scăderile din anii 2009 (-13,6%) şi 2010 (-4,4%) în Austria au călătorit anul trecut 275.800 de români, ceea ce marchează o creştere de 5,5%. Românii au consumat de asemenea 853.800 nopţi, în creştere cu 3,8%. În 2008, anul recordului absolut, Austria a înregistrat un număr de 898.000 înnoptări provenite din România. Ei da, dar în 2008 Austria îşi promova atracţiile în România cu bugete consistente spre deosebire de ultimii ani în care s-a rezumat doar la campanii…gratuite. Şi pentru asemenea “campanii” specialiştii de la Biroul care se ocupă cu promovarea Austriei în ţara noastră, au găsit câţiva figuranţi în mass media. Atât au investit, atât au obţinut.\n\n@ SUS LA VIDRA, SUS ! În sfârşit s-a gândit cineva şi la Vidra, din staţiunea Voineasa (judeţul Vâlcea). Investitorul nu este unul privat ci Ministerul de resort care sprijină o investiţie ce prevede dezvoltarea domeniului schiabil de la Vidra. Proiectul are o valoare totală de 140 de milioane de lei şi a demarat în vara acestui an. Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului asigură finanţarea proiectului, în timp ce beneficiarul, Consiliul Local Voineasa, gestionează atribuirea şi urmărirea contractelor aferente. Stadiul actual de execuţie este de circa 70%. Proiectul include realizarea a 4 pârtii de schi cu o lungime totală de 9 kilometri, prevăzute cu sistem de înzăpezire şi instalaţii de transport pe cablu care totalizează peste 5 kilometri (telescaun – 1.800 metri, teleschi - 733 metri şi o telegondolă de 3 kilometri cu staţie intermediară).\n\n\n@ O SĂ SCHIAŢI ŞI LA... POARTA RAIULUI. În următorii ani va fi dezvoltat un nou domeniu schiabil în Munţii Sebeşului, la Poarta Raiului. Proiectul prevede amenajarea a şapte pârtii care vor avea o lungime totală de 16 kilometri. Punctul de pornire va fi pe Vârful lui Pătru, iar cel de sosire în Poarta Raiului, respectiv în Luncile Prigoanei. Conform Consiliului Judeţean Alba terenul pe care se amenajează “Domeniul schiabil Valea Sebeşului”, are o suprafaţă totală de 73 de hectare şi se află în proprietatea comunelor Săsciori şi Şugag. Investiţia este estimată la 35 de milioane de euro iar finalizarea lucrărilor este prevăzută pentru anul 2015. Dezvoltarea pe Valea Sebeşului a unei zone turistice destinată schiului este prevăzută în Programul Naţional de Dezvoltare a Turismului “Schi în România” şi în Strategia judeţului Alba în domeniul turismului.\n\n4 decenii în bucătăria… românească\n\nCea mai veche Asociaţie profesională din România – ANBCT – a împlinit patru decenii de existenţă. La sfârşitul anului 1971 lua fiinţă Asociaţia Bucătarilor şi Cofetarilor din România (ABC), a cărui primă structură de conducere era formată din Berbece Constantin (preşedinte), Burtea Dumitru, Cotan Vasilica şi Mihai Constantin (vicepreşedinţi), Ceară Cornelia (secretar). Scopul declarat al organizaţiei a fost de a contribui la dezvoltarea meseriilor din domeniul producţiei culinare, organizarea de acţiuni profesionale şi participarea la evenimente internaţionale. În acelaşi an asociaţia a aderat la FIC (Federaţia Internaţională a Bucătarilor) ce va deveni ulterior WACS (World Association of Chefs Societies – Asociaţia Mondială a Societăţilor de Bucătari).\n\nDupă 1995, ABC s-a reorganizat sub denumirea de Asociaţia Naţională a Bucătarilor şi Cofetarilor din Turism din România (ANBCT). „Deşi au existat numeroase dificultăţi am participat la evenimente mondiale de top, unde am obţinut peste 50 de diplome, medalii şi trofee. Ele au recompensat în primul rând şcoala de gastronomie românească, şi sublinez acest lucru în pofida unor afirmaţii făcute de amatori care vor să acrediteze ideea că românii nu excelează în acest domeniu. Am dovedit contrariul la concursurile internaţionale, congrese mondiale, expoziţii, târguri şi cursuri profesionale pentru specializarea bucătarilor, pregătindu-i pentru obţinerea titlului de « Maestru în Arta Culinară». România a fost în prim planul unor mari competiţii internaţionale de prestigiu: Budapesta (1962), Praga (1968), la toate cele 10 olimpiadele gastronomice şi la 12 Congrese mondiale. Prima participare a ţării noastre la Concursul Mondial al Tinerilor Bucătari şi Cofetari s-a produs la Maastricht – Olanda (2000), organizat cu ocazia Congresului WACS. Anul 2008 a marcat aderarea elitei maeştrilor români la asociaţia europeană de bucătari Euro-Toques International (ETI), prin Asociaţia Euro-Toques România, care în prezent are peste 50 membri » - rememorează Dumitru Burtea, membru de Onoare al WACS, azi Preşedintele Euro-Toques România şi Preşedinte de Onoare ANBCT.\n\nÎn opinia domniei sale ţara noastră are nevoie de un «Institut de gastronomie sau o şcoală de formare profesională, care să promoveze în rândul tinerilor apetitul pentru asemenea cariere. Astfel gastronomia românească va putea fi promovată la nivel de artă aşa cum se întâmplă azi în majoritatea ţărilor cu tradiţie turistică».\n\nMARA ANTON\n\nArcul de Triumf va intra în circuitele turistice\n\nPrimarul capitalei Sorin Oprescu a anunţat că Arcul de Triumf, va fi consolidat, restaurant şi conservat pe baza unui proiect aprobat şi finanţat prin Programul Operaţional Regional. Obiectivul va cunoaşte o serie de reamenajări care îi vor permite să fie integrat în circuitele turistice. Lucrările constau în amenajarea în interiorul monumentului istoric a mai multor spaţii expoziţionale pentru lucrări de artă şi a unor căi de acces pentru pietoni. Proiectul, coordonat de către Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului, urmăreşte atragerea unui număr de aproximativ 25.000 de vizitatori în primul an după deschiderea publică. Prin implementarea lui vor fi create 12 locuri de muncă permanente. Valoarea totală a proiectului, care se va derula pe parcursul a 37 de luni, este de peste 30 de milioane de lei, din care 22 de milioane reprezintă finanţarea nerambursabilă.\n\nAcesta este unul dintre cele mai recente proiecte din cele peste 2.600 finanţate de către MDRT, în calitate de Autoritate de Management a POR. Valoarea totală a lor se ridică la 5 miliarde de euro. Până acum ministerul a efectuat plăţi de aproape 1,1 miliarde de euro.\n\nO provocare pentru schiori – pârtii online\n\n114 pârtii de schi din 14 judete din România sunt promovate online şi prin pliante turistice gratuite. Ele au fost lansate la Braşov în cadrul unei campanii derulată de Groove Hour, în parteneriat cu Federaţia Asociaţiilor de Promovare Turistică din România şi Asociaţia pentru Promovarea şi Dezvoltarea Turismului din judeţul amintit. Această a doua ediţie a celui mai amplu proiect de informare turistică dedicat sporturilor de iarnă, cunoscut ca “i-Tour Schi-2012” este consolidată de Ciuc Premium.\n\nConceptul aduce o noutate în cadrul proiectului, prin gruparea domeniilor schiabile pe regiuni geografice, ceea ce permite promovarea lor încrucişată. Astfel turiştii sunt mai bine informaţi despre ofertele pentru schi din14 judeţe din Ardeal, Banat şi Valea Jiului, Covasna şi Harghita, Maramureş, Moldova şi Valea Prahovei. Cele 6 seturi de materiale, tipărite în peste 220.000 de exemplare au fost deja distribuite către 254 de hoteluri, pensiuni, vile şi centre infoturistice din ţară amplasate în 40 de localităţi.\n\nDe asemenea pliantele pot fi descărcate online şi de pe www.i-tour.ro. “Ciuc Premium s-a asociat şi în acest an campaniei “i-Tour Schi”, pentru că este un proiect ce pune în valoare patrimoniul turistic naţional. Continuăm, astfel, să susţinem tradiţia şi turismul montan activ din România” - a declarat Gabriela Gălăţanu, Group Brand Manager.\n\nBucureştiul e şi cool şi în Top 100\n\nDe reţinut, pentru tineri. Conform unui studiu efectuat de site-ul slate.fr, Capitala României se află pe locul 2, în Top 25 al celor mai cool oraşe în care merită să mergi la studii. Printre segmentele evaluate se numără preţurile la cazare, masă, băuturi şi transport, dar şi ponderea pe care o au studenţii (circa 24%) în totalul populaţiei. Acestea sunt doar o parte din cele 11 repere care au fost luate în consideraţie în realizarea indexului. Primul loc a fost adjudecat de către Lisabona.\n\nPe de altă parte conform unui clasament recent, realizat de Euromonitor International, Bucureştiul ocupă locul 55 în topul celor mai vizitate 100 de oraşe din lume de către turiştii internaţionali. În 2010 oraşul a primit 2,1 milioane de vizitatori, cu 5,4% mai mare comparativ cu 2009. Cei mai mulţi vizitatori, din ţările aflate în Europa Centrală, de Est şi Sud-Est au înregistrat Praga şi Moscova, câte 3,7 milioane de vizitatori, urmate de Viena - 3,5 milioane, Kiev - 3,3 milioane şi Budapesta - 2,6 milioane.','Marian Constantinescu a primit al doilea TOSCAR - EVENIMENTE NR.95','','inherit','open','open','','1080-revision','','','2012-03-12 17:00:03','2012-03-12 15:00:03','',1080,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2012/03/12/1080-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(1118,1,'2012-04-12 00:18:58','2012-04-11 22:18:58','Premieră\r\nChristian Tour promovează Senior Voyage
\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/senior-Cristian-Pandel.jpg\" "\\"senior")
Christian Tour a lansat Senior Voyage. Acesta este primul brand românesc de vacanţe, adresat persoanelor trecute de 55 de ani, care doresc să-şi petreacă vacanţele în Europa.
Pasul făcut de Christian Tour pare surprinzător pentru mediul românesc de turism, confruntat în ultimii ani cu destule dificultaţi. Cristian Pandel, managerul agenţiei, consideră, însă, că extinderea pe pieţele externe consolidează în primul rând poziţia companiei din România: „De câţiva ani am devenit cea mai mare agenţie din ţară pe cursele charter. Ne-am dezvoltat urmând principiul: volumul mare de turişti atrage dupa sine un volum şi mai mare. Cu cât operezi mai multe locuri, cu atât obţii reduceri mai mari de la hoteluri, companii aeriene, operatori locali etc. Anul trecut am înregistrat un total de 100.000 de turişti şi vânzări de aproape 30.000.000 de euro. Astfel am ajuns să oferim preţuri foarte bune pe toate destinaţiile operate de noi ceea ce ne-a determinat să ne extindem agenţia în Europa, prin intermediul Pegas Holidays. Astfel, în 2011 am deschis 4 sedii noi, în Bulgaria şi Turcia.” |\r\n\r\nPe primul loc, în preferinţele turiştilor din aceste ţări, care au achiziţionat vacanţe pentru seniori derulate de turoperatorul român, s-au situat destinaţii din ţări precum Israel, Spania sau Italia.\r\nÎn sezonul 2010–2011, Christian Tour a fost singurul turoperator român acreditat sa comercializeze vacanţele pentru seniori dezvoltate de Uniunea Europeana şi Guvernul spaniol.\r\n\r\nDe aici până la crearea unui produs propriu n-a mai fost decât un pas. Pentru sezonul următor s-a simţit nevoia creării unui brand mai puternic, extins la nivelul mai multor ţari, care să ofere turistului posibilitatea unui program de fidelizare avantajos. Aşa a apărut Senior Voyage.\r\n\r\nCei care pleacă în vacanţă primesc mai mult decât un simplu serviciu turistic. Ei au certitudinea unui raport foarte bun sub aspectul calitate-preţ. Turiştii sunt recompensaţi şi cu un card de fidelitate Christian Tour, în baza căruia se bucură de mai multe facilităţi (excursii opţionale gratuite, prioritate la îmbarcare, discount-uri) etc. Aceste facilitaţi sunt posibile deoarece în proprietatea Christian Tour se află 20 de mijloace de transport proprii care lucrează tot timpul anului. În perioada ianuarie – aprilie, autocarele activează pe destinaţii precum Costa Brava, Costa Dorada, Costa del Sol etc. De la sfârşitul primăverii şi pâna la începutul toamnei, cu ajutorul autocarelor se realizează circuite în toata Europa şi sejururi pe mai multe destinaţii de la Marea Mediterană, Marea Neagră sau Marea Adriatică.\r\n\r\n„Ne concentrăm pe pieţele internaţionale. Dar România se dovedeşte o piaţă cu un mare potenţial de creştere. De aceea, oferim celor peste 1.200 de parteneri din întreaga ţară suportul nostru logistic, în aşa fel încât produsele noastre să poată fi accesibile în întreaga ţară în condiţii foarte bune. Din acest an, dezvoltăm puternic departamentul care va dezvolta produse turistice pentru România. Avem deja contractate grupuri de români şi străini pentru care am organizat vacanţe pe destinaţii autohtone” – a mai declarat Cristian Pandel.

Aeroportul “Aurel Vlaicu” de la Băneasa, a doua poartă aeriană a României va deveni, după 25 martie 2012 o bază exclusiv dedicată zborurilor de business. Ca urmare toate cursele low-cost vor fi mutate pe Aeroportul Internaţional Henri Coandă – Otopeni. Acest moment corespunde şi cu mărirea tarifelor de operare care intră în vigoare cu sezonul de vară astfel că “operarea pe Aeroportul din Băneasa va deveni mai scumpă decât pe Otopeni”, a declarat Tudor Jidav, directorul general al Companiei Naţionale Aeroporturi Bucureşti (CNAB). Pentru a răspunde noului tip de activităţi şi de clientelă pe aeroportul Băneasa s-a finalizat o investiţie în valoare de 2,5 milioane de euro, pentru amenajarea terminalului de business. Noul terminal, care este prevăzut cu două porţi de îmbarcare, prezintă o capacitate de 30.000 de pasageri pe an. “Celelalte două terminale ale Aeroportului Băneasa urmează să fie şi ele modernizate, iar licitaţia pentru studiile de fezabilitate a fost organizată în decembrie 2011” – au precizat reprezentanţii CNAB.\r\n\r\nLufthansa are un nou director general în România\r\n\r\nBelgianul Patrick Artiel este noul manager pentru România şi Moldova al operatorul aerian ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Lufthansa-3.jpg\" "\\"Lufthansa")
Lufthansa. El l-a înlocuit luna trecut pe germanul Stefan Versemann, care a ocupat această poziţie în ultimii patru ani. Patrick vine din Olanda unde a fost director general al grupului Lufthansa pe o perioadă de aproape doi ani. El a mai deţinut funcţii de conducere pentru Lufthansa şi Swiss în Olanda, respectiv pentru Swiss în Belgia.\r\n\r\nDupă cum a anunţat biroul din România, Lufthansa a atins o cotă de piaţă de 23% iar din vara acestui an va asigura din Bucureşti, Timişoara, Cluj-Napoca şi Sibiu, conexiuni prin 110 zboruri săptămânale. Cele mai utilizate rute sunt către Munchen şi Frankfurt.

Compania italiană “low fares” Air Vallee care operează şi de pe aeroportul Otopeni din Bucureşti, a anunţat că începând cu 25 martie va introduce o nouă rută în programul său de zbor. De la această dată vor avea loc 3 curse pe săptămână către Florenţa în zilele de marţi, joi şi duminică. Biletele au fost puse în vânzare de pe data de 13 ianuarie cu tarife începând de la 29 de euro per segment, cu taxe incluse. Preţul include şi un bagaj de cală de până la 20 de kilograme. Davide Strinna, contry manager al companiei, ne-a declarat că: “Decizia noastră vine în întâmpinarea solicitărilor. Florenţa este o destinaţie căutată de turiştii români dar şi de comunitatea românească din Toscana. Orarul de zbor permite şi călătorii de weekend de tip “city break”. Această rută era una dintre marile absenţe pe lista curselor ce pleacă din capitala României către Italia, iar noi am decis să o rezolvăm.” Zborurile vor fi operate cu aeronave Fokker 100.\r\n\r\n2012 va fi un an bun pentru Blue Air\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Blue-025.jpg\" "\\"Blue")
Trei dintre liderii Blue Air, o companie aviatică cu capital integral românesc - Sherif Ussama, director general, Adrian Ionaşcu, director adjunct şi Cristian Buciu, director operaţional -, au afirmat că acest an se conturează ca unul favorabil creşterii afacerilor. Mutarea pe aeroportul internaţional „Henri Coandă” de la Otopeni, a bazei operaţionale a Blue Air presupune costuri serioase dar în mod singur taxele de aeroport vor fi modice în comparaţie cu cele care vor intra în vigoare din 25 martie 2012 la Băneasa, odată cu lansarea orarului de vară, când va avea loc acest... transfer.\r\n\r\n“Dorim să îmbunătăţim serviciile oferite pasagerilor noştri. Vom mări capacitatea flotei cu înca o aeronavă tip Boeing 737-400, destinată operării noilor rute şi frecvenţe. Anul acesta vom aduce încă 3 aeronave, numărul acestora urmând să ajungă la 10. Pasagerii ce au achiziţionat bilete pentru călătorii începând cu 25 martie 2012 vor fi informaţi prin: sms, e-mail, newsletter şi anunţ pe website-ul Blue Air. La fel vom face şi pentru toate agenţiile colaboratoare din ţară şi străinătate” - declara Sherif Ussama, în cadrul unei conferinţe de presă. Cum arată planurile de dezvoltare? În 2012 au fost introduse noi destinaţii de zbor cum ar fi Veneţia cu plecare din Bucureşti (zboruri diponibile începând cu 25 martie) şi din Bacău (zboruri diponibile începând cu 2 iunie).\r\n\r\nAcestora li se alătură în programul de vară şi destinaţii cu plecare din Bucureşti către Barcelona, Madrid, Stuttgart, Bologna, Milano(Bergamo), Lisabona, Roma şi retur; respectiv din Bacău către Bruxelles, Dublin, Londra şi retur; din Sibiu către Stuttgart şi retur - a anunţat Adrian Ionaşcu. Acesta a mai subliniat că Blue Air este una dintre puţinele companii aeriene care chiar dacă a avut întârzieri în această perioadă cu condiţii climaterice dificile, “nu a anulat nicio cursă”.\r\n\r\nPe de altă parte Cristian Buciu a arătat că este normal ca Băneasa să se transforme într-un ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Ev-Turkish-179.jpg\" "\\"Ev")
City Aeroport, dedicat în principal zborurilor de business. Referindu-se la aeroportul din Bacău el a mai spus că “Bacăul este o un suport important în dezvoltarea companiei noastre. Avem aici 3 aeronave cu care susţinem 36 de zboruri săptămânale. Gradul de ocupare a fost de circa 95%, un aspect foarte bun pentru afaceri”. În ceea ce priveşte construcţia aeroportului de la Adunaţii Copăceni, “proiectul este gata iar lucrările vor începe în anul 2013” a mai adăugat directorul general Sherif Ussama.

\r\n\r\nCei doi au subliniat contribuţia companiei turceşti la dezvoltarea acestei rute foarte frecventată de turişti. Ei au prezentat Aeroportul Changi şi oraşul Singapore, ofertele culturale şi tradiţiile locale. Changi este unul dintre cele mai premiate porţi aeriene din lume nu numai pentru performanţele economice ci şi pentru conceptul arhitectural şi funcţionalitatea unică a acestui oraş în oraş, plin de spaţii naturale care se îmbină cu cele mai inovatoare tehnologii. El deţine, printre altele, peste 300 de magazine şi restaurante, conectează peste 200 de destinaţii, asigură peste 5.000 de sosiri şi plecări săptămânale, operate de către 80 de companii aeriene.\r\n\r\nLa rândul său Narcisa Creţu, Regional Marketing Manager al Turkish Airlines în România a înmânat premiile acordate prin tragere la sorţi, unor travel agenţi prezenţi la eveniment.

După cum ne-a declarat Sorin Dencescu, preşedintele Krontur Expo, “TTF a parcurs etapele de la târg zonal la târg naţional, devenind de la ediţia trecută, târg cu participare internaţională! La târgul din acest an şi-au anunţat deja participarea peste 70 dintre cele mai mari agenţii de turism din ţară, ţări ca Ungaria şi Bulgaria, prezente în premieră cu standuri naţionale, Republica Moldova, Cipru etc, numeroase asociaţii regionale de promovare, unităţi de consultanţă şi învăţământ şi, nu în ultimul rând, Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului şi\r\nAsociaţia Naţională a Agenţiilor de Turism (ANAT).\r\n\r\nUn spaţiu distinct va fi dedicat Primăriei Braşovului care a fost încă de la prima ediţie susţinătorul acestei manifestări. Investiţia în imagine şi promovare se vede azi când Braşovul ca oraş şi judeţ s-au impus, prin evenimentele organizate, drept una dintre cele mai importante capitale turistice ale României.”\r\n\r\nŞi interesul sponsorilor este în creştere. Apropiata ediţie va fi susţinută de: Dertour România (sponsor principal), Austrian, Lufthansa, Swiss şi Tess (sponsori). Agenda manifestărilor se anunţă extrem de interesantă incluzând mese rotunde şi simpozioane susţinute de: Oficiul de Turism al Ungariei la Cluj ce va prezenta o parte dintre cele mai interesante destinaţii naţionale în cadrul unui workshop; Dertour va reuni specialiştii săi într-un seminar de specialitate; Asociaţia Metropolitană Braşov va patrona Conferinţa Regională a ONG-urilor din Transilvania care activeaza în domeniul turismului, iar Asociaţia de Promovare şi Dezvoltare Turistică Braşov(APDTB) va organiza o masă rotundă cu tema “Circuite turistic in Transilvania”. De asemenea o serie de asociaţii profesionale vor realiza mai multe sesiuni de promovare a artei culinare autohtone. Pentru mai multe informaţii puteti accesa site-ul www.ttf.ro.\r\n\r\n\r\n@ A VI-A EDIŢIE LA BACĂU. Între 16 şi 18 martie se va desfăşura la Central Plaza Bacău Târgul de turism. Considerat a fi un fenomen specific civilizaţiei moderne, turismul este puternic ancorat în viaţa societăţii, fiind influenţat, la rândul său, în evoluţia comunităţilor. Manifestarea expoziţională se află la ediţia a VI-a, fiind un eveniment promoţional cu impact asupra mediului de afaceri din Regiune de nord-est. Printre expozanţi se vor număra agenţii de turism şi tour-operatori, complexe hoteliere, alte unităţi de cazare, companii ce derulează programe pentru turism de afaceri şi turism cultural, turism rural şi turism ecologic. Vor fi expuse echipamente pentru hoteluri şi restaurante, programe IT aplicabile în această industrie, sisteme de rezervări, produse ale unor edituri şi publicaţii turistice – ne-a informat managerul de proiect Adrian Nechita. Revista noastră este partener media al acestui eveniment.\r\n\r\n@ A FOST LANSATĂ A IV-A EDIŢIE DE “ÎNSCRIERI TIMPURII DE VARĂ”. În cadrul campaniei sunt acordate reduceri de până la 30% pentru turiştii care vor achiziţiona de la agenţiile membre ANAT un pachet de servicii turistice cu plata integrală, în perioada 1 februarie - 31 martie 2012. Pot fi cumpărate pachete turistice pentru petrecerea concediului de vară în intervalul mai - septembrie 2011. Oferta cuprinde unităţi de cazare de la 2 la 5 stele pe Litoral, din staţiunile montane, balneare şi agroturistice şi în Delta Dunării. Programul “Înscrieri Timpurii” a fost iniţiat şi dezvoltat de ANAT în parteneriat cu patronatele şi mediul organizaţional. Marea noutate a ediţiei 2012 este faptul că tarifele vor fi valabile şi pentru agenţiile ANAT Moldova. “În acest fel, vom atrage un număr mai mare de turişti de Republica Moldova şi în acelaşi timp vom avea şi o mai bună promovare a ofertei noastre de vacanţe”– a precizat Marius Usturoiu, preşedintele Comisia de Turism Intern a ANAT.\r\n\r\n@ ARTĂ ŞI VIN. Cunoscutul editor Constantin Dumitru a lansat primul număr al revistei „Piaţa de artă”, o iniţiativă susţinută de artiştii plastici, proprietari de galerii, colecţionari ori oameni de afaceri, printre care se numără Sergio Faleschini, proprietarul Vinarte. Evenimentul s-a consumat cu prilejul vernisării expoziţiei „Dar din har” semnată de artistul Mihail Gavril. Ideea convergentă a acestor manifestări pereche, găzduite de sala „Constantin Brâncuşi” de la Palatul Parlamentului, este că arta se armonizează perfect cu vinul şi turismul iar o revistă de profil poate constitui un suport de promovare a unor produse, comerciale ori artistice, de calitate superioară. În ceea ce priveşte creaţiile pictorului Mihai Gavril, am remarcat colecţia de tablouri inspirate de insula grecească Santorini, una dintre cele mai frumoase din lume.\r\n\r\n@ AUSTRIA ÎNCEPE SĂ-ŞI REVINĂ. După doi ani de scădere, austriecii au înregistrat în 2011 un record cu privire la numărul de oaspeţi: 34,6 de milioane de sosiri, care a marcat o creştere de 3,6% respectiv 1,2 milioane faţă de anul precedent. Şi la înnoptări s-a înregistrat o creştere de 0,8% respectiv 1,1 milioane în cifre absolute. În ceea ce priveşte piaţa românească şi aici s-a înregistrat un reviriment. După scăderile din anii 2009 (-13,6%) şi 2010 (-4,4%) în Austria au călătorit anul trecut 275.800 de români, ceea ce marchează o creştere de 5,5%. Românii au consumat de asemenea 853.800 nopţi, în creştere cu 3,8%. În 2008, anul recordului absolut, Austria a înregistrat un număr de 898.000 înnoptări provenite din România. Ei da, dar în 2008 Austria îşi promova atracţiile în România cu bugete consistente spre deosebire de ultimii ani în care s-a rezumat doar la campanii…gratuite. Şi pentru asemenea “campanii” specialiştii de la Biroul care se ocupă cu promovarea Austriei în ţara noastră, au găsit câţiva figuranţi în mass media. Atât au investit, atât au obţinut.\r\n\r\n@ SUS LA VIDRA, SUS ! În sfârşit s-a gândit cineva şi la Vidra, din staţiunea Voineasa (judeţul Vâlcea). Investitorul nu este unul privat ci Ministerul de resort care sprijină o investiţie ce prevede dezvoltarea domeniului schiabil de la Vidra. Proiectul are o valoare totală de 140 de milioane de lei şi a demarat în vara acestui an. Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului asigură finanţarea proiectului, în timp ce beneficiarul, Consiliul Local Voineasa, gestionează atribuirea şi urmărirea contractelor aferente. Stadiul actual de execuţie este de circa 70%. Proiectul include realizarea a 4 pârtii de schi cu o lungime totală de 9 kilometri, prevăzute cu sistem de înzăpezire şi instalaţii de transport pe cablu care totalizează peste 5 kilometri (telescaun – 1.800 metri, teleschi - 733 metri şi o telegondolă de 3 kilometri cu staţie intermediară).\r\n\r\n\r\n@ O SĂ SCHIAŢI ŞI LA... POARTA RAIULUI. În următorii ani va fi dezvoltat un nou domeniu schiabil în Munţii Sebeşului, la Poarta Raiului. Proiectul prevede amenajarea a şapte pârtii care vor avea o lungime totală de 16 kilometri. Punctul de pornire va fi pe Vârful lui Pătru, iar cel de sosire în Poarta Raiului, respectiv în Luncile Prigoanei. Conform Consiliului Judeţean Alba terenul pe care se amenajează “Domeniul schiabil Valea Sebeşului”, are o suprafaţă totală de 73 de hectare şi se află în proprietatea comunelor Săsciori şi Şugag. Investiţia este estimată la 35 de milioane de euro iar finalizarea lucrărilor este prevăzută pentru anul 2015. Dezvoltarea pe Valea Sebeşului a unei zone turistice destinată schiului este prevăzută în Programul Naţional de Dezvoltare a Turismului “Schi în România” şi în Strategia judeţului Alba în domeniul turismului.\r\n\r\n4 decenii în bucătăria… românească\r\n\r\nCea mai veche Asociaţie profesională din România – ANBCT – a împlinit patru decenii de existenţă. La sfârşitul anului 1971 lua fiinţă Asociaţia Bucătarilor şi Cofetarilor din România (ABC), a cărui primă structură de conducere era formată din Berbece Constantin (preşedinte), Burtea Dumitru, Cotan Vasilica şi Mihai Constantin (vicepreşedinţi), Ceară Cornelia (secretar). Scopul declarat al organizaţiei a fost de a contribui la dezvoltarea meseriilor din domeniul producţiei culinare, organizarea de acţiuni profesionale şi participarea la evenimente internaţionale. În acelaşi an asociaţia a aderat la FIC (Federaţia Internaţională a Bucătarilor) ce va deveni ulterior WACS (World Association of Chefs Societies – Asociaţia Mondială a Societăţilor de Bucătari).\r\n\r\nDupă 1995, ABC s-a reorganizat sub denumirea de Asociaţia Naţională a Bucătarilor şi Cofetarilor din Turism din România (ANBCT). „Deşi au existat numeroase dificultăţi am participat la evenimente mondiale de top, unde am obţinut peste 50 de diplome, medalii şi trofee. Ele au recompensat în primul rând şcoala de gastronomie românească, şi sublinez acest lucru în pofida unor afirmaţii făcute de amatori care vor să acrediteze ideea că românii nu excelează în acest domeniu. Am dovedit contrariul la concursurile internaţionale, congrese mondiale, expoziţii, târguri şi cursuri profesionale pentru specializarea bucătarilor, pregătindu-i pentru obţinerea titlului de « Maestru în Arta Culinară». România a fost în prim planul unor mari competiţii internaţionale de prestigiu: Budapesta (1962), Praga (1968), la toate cele 10 olimpiadele gastronomice şi la 12 Congrese mondiale. Prima participare a ţării noastre la Concursul Mondial al Tinerilor Bucătari şi Cofetari s-a produs la Maastricht – Olanda (2000), organizat cu ocazia Congresului WACS. Anul 2008 a marcat aderarea elitei maeştrilor români la asociaţia europeană de bucătari Euro-Toques International (ETI), prin Asociaţia Euro-Toques România, care în prezent are peste 50 membri » - rememorează Dumitru Burtea, membru de Onoare al WACS, azi Preşedintele Euro-Toques România şi Preşedinte de Onoare ANBCT.\r\n\r\nÎn opinia domniei sale ţara noastră are nevoie de un «Institut de gastronomie sau o şcoală de formare profesională, care să promoveze în rândul tinerilor apetitul pentru asemenea cariere. Astfel gastronomia românească va putea fi promovată la nivel de artă aşa cum se întâmplă azi în majoritatea ţărilor cu tradiţie turistică».\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON\r\n\r\nArcul de Triumf va intra în circuitele turistice\r\n\r\nPrimarul capitalei Sorin Oprescu a anunţat că Arcul de Triumf, va fi consolidat, restaurant şi conservat pe baza unui proiect aprobat şi finanţat prin Programul Operaţional Regional. Obiectivul va cunoaşte o serie de reamenajări care îi vor permite să fie integrat în circuitele turistice. Lucrările constau în amenajarea în interiorul monumentului istoric a mai multor spaţii expoziţionale pentru lucrări de artă şi a unor căi de acces pentru pietoni. Proiectul, coordonat de către Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului, urmăreşte atragerea unui număr de aproximativ 25.000 de vizitatori în primul an după deschiderea publică. Prin implementarea lui vor fi create 12 locuri de muncă permanente. Valoarea totală a proiectului, care se va derula pe parcursul a 37 de luni, este de peste 30 de milioane de lei, din care 22 de milioane reprezintă finanţarea nerambursabilă.\r\n\r\nAcesta este unul dintre cele mai recente proiecte din cele peste 2.600 finanţate de către MDRT, în calitate de Autoritate de Management a POR. Valoarea totală a lor se ridică la 5 miliarde de euro. Până acum ministerul a efectuat plăţi de aproape 1,1 miliarde de euro.\r\n\r\nO provocare pentru schiori – pârtii online\r\n\r\n114 pârtii de schi din 14 judete din România sunt promovate online şi prin pliante turistice gratuite. Ele au fost lansate la Braşov în cadrul unei campanii derulată de Groove Hour, în parteneriat cu Federaţia Asociaţiilor de Promovare Turistică din România şi Asociaţia pentru Promovarea şi Dezvoltarea Turismului din judeţul amintit. Această a doua ediţie a celui mai amplu proiect de informare turistică dedicat sporturilor de iarnă, cunoscut ca “i-Tour Schi-2012” este consolidată de Ciuc Premium.\r\n\r\nConceptul aduce o noutate în cadrul proiectului, prin gruparea domeniilor schiabile pe regiuni geografice, ceea ce permite promovarea lor încrucişată. Astfel turiştii sunt mai bine informaţi despre ofertele pentru schi din14 judeţe din Ardeal, Banat şi Valea Jiului, Covasna şi Harghita, Maramureş, Moldova şi Valea Prahovei. Cele 6 seturi de materiale, tipărite în peste 220.000 de exemplare au fost deja distribuite către 254 de hoteluri, pensiuni, vile şi centre infoturistice din ţară amplasate în 40 de localităţi.\r\n\r\nDe asemenea pliantele pot fi descărcate online şi de pe www.i-tour.ro. “Ciuc Premium s-a asociat şi în acest an campaniei “i-Tour Schi”, pentru că este un proiect ce pune în valoare patrimoniul turistic naţional. Continuăm, astfel, să susţinem tradiţia şi turismul montan activ din România” - a declarat Gabriela Gălăţanu, Group Brand Manager.\r\n\r\nBucureştiul e şi cool şi în Top 100\r\n\r\nDe reţinut, pentru tineri. Conform unui studiu efectuat de site-ul slate.fr, Capitala României se află pe locul 2, în Top 25 al celor mai cool oraşe în care merită să mergi la studii. Printre segmentele evaluate se numără preţurile la cazare, masă, băuturi şi transport, dar şi ponderea pe care o au studenţii (circa 24%) în totalul populaţiei. Acestea sunt doar o parte din cele 11 repere care au fost luate în consideraţie în realizarea indexului. Primul loc a fost adjudecat de către Lisabona.\r\n\r\nPe de altă parte conform unui clasament recent, realizat de Euromonitor International, Bucureştiul ocupă locul 55 în topul celor mai vizitate 100 de oraşe din lume de către turiştii internaţionali. În 2010 oraşul a primit 2,1 milioane de vizitatori, cu 5,4% mai mare comparativ cu 2009. Cei mai mulţi vizitatori, din ţările aflate în Europa Centrală, de Est şi Sud-Est au înregistrat Praga şi Moscova, câte 3,7 milioane de vizitatori, urmate de Viena - 3,5 milioane, Kiev - 3,3 milioane şi Budapesta - 2,6 milioane.','Marian Constantinescu a primit al doilea TOSCAR - EVENIMENTE NR.95','','inherit','open','open','','1080-revision-2','','','2012-03-12 17:00:29','2012-03-12 15:00:29','',1080,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2012/03/12/1080-revision-2/',0,'revision','',0),(1105,1,'2012-03-12 14:30:14','2012-03-12 12:30:14','În hotelărie vine timpul tinerilor… neliniştiţi
\r\nLanţurile internaţionale încep să exporte la Bucureşti “racheţi operaţionali” care să le reformuleze şi maximizeze profitul. Criza circulaţiei turistice dar şi concurenţa neloială în materie de tarife îi determină pe manageri să privească altfel viitorul. Investiţiile în hoteluri nu mai sunt suficiente. Cine vrea, vede clar cum tinerii neliniştiţi urcă cu noi discursuri scările din turism. Interesant este de urmărit spectacolul lumii, adică dacă tinereţea îşi va găsi drumul spre cariere.
TOP MANAGEMENT\r\nNou manager la Novotel Bucarest
\r\nLuc Gesvret, directorul regional al lanţului Accor pentru Cehia şi România l-a prezentat pe noul director general al Hotelul Novotel Bucarest City Centre în persoana lui Stéphane Barbazan. Acesta deţine o mare experienţă, acumulată pe parcursul a 22 de ani de când activează în industria hotelieră. El a ocupat funcţii de conducere în diferite unităţi din Europa, Oceanul Indian, Africa de Nord, America de Nord şi Caraibe. Barbazan a venit la Bucureşti din oraşul Shenzhen (China) unde a condus hotelul de 5 stele, Grand Mercure Oriental Ginza. După cum a declarat acesta “piaţa românească are un potenţial foarte ridicat iar misiunea mea este ca, alături de o echipă tânără şi foarte motivată, să poziţionăm noi servicii de calitate, să creem plusvaloare acestui brand foarte respectat în lanţul Accor”.
Sind Tour l-a adus pe Paul Mărăşoiu\r\nRadomir Stoicovici, directorul Sind Tour Trading pentru sucursala Herculane a anunţat o investiţie de 1,5 milioane de euro în modernizarea hotelului Domogled din staţiunea Băile Herculane. El are o capacitate de 138 de camere, dispune de un restaurant şi o bază de tratament, în prezent închise. După ce lucrările vor fi finalizate complexul Domogled va fi clasificat la un nivel superior, de 3 stele, iar baza de tratament va fi dotată cu facilităţi moderne şi aparatură competitivă. De asemenea la sfârşitul anului Sind Tour Trading a anunţat o schimbare în managementul companiei pe segmentul coordonării activităţii hoteliere. El a fost preluat de către Paul Mărăşoiu, care l-a înlocuit pe Michele Meoni (care a mai manageriat în România strategia lanţului Continental). Sind Tour Trading deţine 7 complexe şi 11 vile primite în administrare din portofoliul Sind România în 6 locaţii: hotelurile Muncel din Băile Felix, Dacia şi Domogled din Băile Herculane, Montana în Covasna, Someşul în Sângeorz Băi, Brădişor şi Vidruţa din Voineasa, respectiv mai multe vile şi apartamente la Vidra şi Voineasa.\r\n\r\nTENDINŢE\r\nScade taxa hotelieră\r\n\r\nDin luna ianuarie taxa hotelieră a scăzut la 1%, şi va fi aceeaşi în toată ţara ca urmare a noilor reglementări privind Codul Fiscal, care uniformizeaza valorarea taxei hoteliere la nivel naţional. Taxa hotelieră reprezintă un procent din valoarea totală a cazării pentru fiecare zi de sejur a turistului. De asemenea, potrivit noului Cod fiscal, aprobat în luna august 2011, cota de impozit pe clădirile cu destinaţie turistică care nu funcţionează în decursul unui an calendaristic va fi de minimum 5% din valoarea de inventar a clădirii. O alta decizie, de la care se aşteaptă prelungirea sezonului turistic pe litoral, constă în reducerea cu 50% a impozitului pe clădirile şi terenurile situate pe litoralul Mării Negre, deţinute de persoane juridice şi folosite în scop turistic pentru o perioadă de minimum 6 luni dintr-un an an calendaristic.\r\n\r\nSuntem pe locul 1 la birurile fiscale \r\nHotelurile din România practică tarife comparabile sau chiar mai scăzute faţă de ţările vecine. Chiar şi în condiţiile majorării taxelor şi impozitelor, dublării costurilor pentru utilităţi, şi a taxelor supradimensionate privind forţa de muncă, hotelierii români au reuşit în 2011 să scadă tarifele cu 30 de procente comparativ cu 2010, şi să rămână jucători competitivi pe piaţa europeană. Cel puţin aşa arată un studiu efectuat de Federaţia Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR), ce a sintetizat rezultatele unei analize comparative între România şi ţări ca Ungaria, Austria şi Bulgaria, în ceea ce priveşte tarifele de cazare din capitalele acestor ţări pe perioada Sărbătorilor de Iarnă, precum şi ofertele restaurantelor pentru Crăciun şi Revelion.\r\n\r\nTarifele din România în 2011 au înregistrat o scădere cu 30% faţă de anul anterior, chiar şi în condiţiile majorării taxelor şi impozitelor şi a creşterii costurilor la utilităţi cu 50%. În ce priveşte taxele aferente salariilor, plătite către stat, se afirmă că România se situeaza între ţările « fruntaşe » în ceea ce priveşte costul cu forţa de muncă, acesta fiind considerabil mai mare, cu aproape 30%, comparativ cu Bulgaria, cu 11% faţă de Austria şi comparabil cu Ungaria. De asemenea, România ocupă primul loc în topul ţărilor în ceea ce priveşte numărul contribuţiilor la stat, 10 la număr, urmată de Ungaria şi Bulgaria, unde angajatorii plătesc doar 8 asemenea taxe. « Din păcate, turismul românesc nu beneficiază de aceeaşi promovare externă ca ţările cu care ne comparăm, iar acesta constituie un motiv în plus pentru a considera eforturile foarte mari făcute de patronii din turism. Este ca şi cum am trăi în două ţări diferite. Pe de o parte, patronii sunt obligaţi să ofere servicii la preţuri competitive, însă pe plan economic, ei se confruntă cu taxe şi cheltuieli exagerate » – subliniază Mohammad Murad, preşedintele FPTR.
TRANZACŢII\r\nUnita vrea să vândă
\r\nCompania Unita Turism, controlată de Josef Goshy a anunţat scoaterea la vânzare a Complexulului hotelier Amfiteatru, Belvedere şi Panoramic din staţiunea Olimp. Suma anunţată pentru eventualii cumpărători este de 60 de milioane de euro. Complexul a fost achiziţionat la începtul anului 2008 cu 30 de milioane de euro. Goschy a declarat că decizia a fost luată deoarece e nevoie de bani pentru realizarea un amplu program de investiţii în celelalte hoteluri care fac parte din lanţul Unita. Printre acestea se numără Belvedere din Cluj, Moldova din Iaşi şi două hoteluri din Orşova şi Suceava. Unita Turism operează 25 de hoteluri care cumulează peste 3.500 de camere şi 7.000 de locuri în restaurante.
\r\nINVESTIŢII\r\nSolarex se orientează spre Aquastar
\r\nCompania Solarex (care îi are ca acţionari pe Karoly Marton Nagy - 40%, Erzsebet Nagy - 40% şi Noemi Baranyai - 20%, deţine hotelul Astoria şi agenţia de turism Solarex Tour din Satu Mare), a anunţat accesarea unei finanţări de peste 6 milioane de euro de la Eximbank. Suma va fi investită în realizarea unui complex de sănătate, care va valorifica apa geotermală din zonă. El beneficiază şi de o finanţare nerambursabilă în valoare de 5,5 milioane de euro, sumă obţinută prin Programul Operaţional Regional 2007-2013. Lucrările de construcţie a Parcului Acvatic Aquastar sunt efectuate de către compania constănţeană Tehnoclima General Construct iar finalizarea lor e prevăzută pentru toamna acestui an. Proiectul, care va genera circa 60 de locuri de muncă permanente, prevede clădiri cu 4 piscine interioare, cu o suprafaţă de 650 metri pătraţi, care vor fi funcţionale şi iarna, 5 piscine exterioare, cu o suprafaţă totală de 955 metri pătraţi şi un Centru de sănătate şi tratament dotat cu 7 tipuri de saună, hidroterapie, kinetoterapie şi electroterapie. Capacitatea de primire a Parcului acvatic va fi de circa 1.700 de persoane pe zi.\r\n20 de milioane pentru sănătate.\r\n\r\nCompania Romaqua Group a anunţat că se va implica în turismul balnear din staţiunea Borsec. Nicolae Palfi, vicepreşedintele companiei a declarat că un hotel vechi, achiziţionat anul trecut, va fi dezafectat. Pe locul acestuia va fi construit un complex nou. Decizia a fost luată deoarece investiţia în renovarea hotelului existent ar fi fost mai mare decât în cazul construirii altuia modern. Noua unitate va avea specific balnear, va deservi interesele companiei dar va fi deschis şi pentru circuitul public. Investiţia finală s-ar putea ridica la circa 20 de milioane de euro, a mai anunţat Palfi.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU & ANGELA SIMION','În hotelărie vine timpul tinerilor… neliniştiţi-INDUSTRIE HOTELIERA nr 95','','inherit','open','open','','1074-revision-2','','','2012-03-12 14:30:14','2012-03-12 12:30:14','',1074,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2012/03/12/1074-revision-2/',0,'revision','',0),(1107,1,'2012-03-12 14:08:53','2012-03-12 12:08:53','PNUD se implică într-un triunghi turistic românesc \r\n\r\nUn Proiect-pilot ce prevede dezvoltare urbană integrată pentru reabilitarea şi modernizarea destinaţiilor turistice Borsec, Băile Herculane şi Sulina.

O echipă de experţi pe Valea Cernei
\r\nCe a fost? Din primele întâlniri avute cu reprezentanţii comunităţii locale a reieşit că există o motivaţie clară pentru proiect. Pe parcursul a trei vizite făcute la Băile Herculane, reprezentanţii Primăriei, condusă de Nicuşor Vasilescu, ai MDRT, ai specialiştilor în politici de integrare europeană şi de urbanism şi a celor din partea PNUD, au fost purtate discuţii edificatoare privind aşteptările participanţilor faţă de acest proiect. Au avut loc circa 30 de întâlniri individuale cu membri ai comunităţii locale, conducători de instituţii publice, administratori de pensiuni şi hoteluri. Echipa de experţi PNUD şi-a cristalizat o viziune asupra problemelor majore ale oraşului, asupra modului de percepţie a locuitorilor şi a gradului de implicare a acestora. La întâlniri a participat şi reprezentantul Organizaţiei

\r\nUn plan viabil pentru resurse naturale
\r\nCe urmează? După identificarea soluţiilor, în cursul lunii februarie şi în următoarele vizite va avea loc o consultare publică în care vor fi prezentate membrilor comunităţii concluziile şi propunerile echipei PNUD. La Bucureşti va avea loc o întrunire a board-ului format din reprezentanţi ai MDRT, PNUD, OMT şi primarii celor trei localităţi care vor dezbate şi aproba documentul cu concluziile echipei de experţi.\r\nReferindu-se la impact Nic Ţarălungă, coordonatorul naţional de proiect, ne-a declarat: „Efectele vor fi finanţările pe care trebuie să le atragem şi prin care proiectele propuse vor deveni viabile. Spre sfârşitul lui martie se va realizarea un plan de acţiune pe proiecte prioritare, o evaluare a necesarului de bani pentru aceste proiecte. În etapa de implementare este necesară dezvoltarea unei activităţi de marketing a staţiunilor şi a ”produselor turistice” proprii. Al doilea element esenţial în dezvoltarea lor este implicarea proprietarilor în reabilitarea clădirilor cu funcţiuni turistice, cu precădere a celor cu valoarea de patrimoniu. Al treilea nivel de exprimare se referă la formarea resurselor umane. Am în vedere sectorul medical, fără de care valorificarea resurselor naturale existente nu se poate face, formarea personalului implicat în furnizarea de servicii turistice, respectiv implicarea administraţiei locale în managementul implementării acestor proiecte de interes public.”
Două ţinte prioritare – istoria şi patrimoniul
\r\n „Pot să spun cu mâna pe inimă că atunci când se vorbeşte de dezvoltare în turism, mulţi nu deţin această bază fenomenală care se găseşte la Băile Herculane. Când se vorbeşte de turism la Băile Herculane abordăm un lucru foarte serios. Chiar există perspective optimiste pentru ca proiectele să devină realitate. Ţinta principală: cum putem dezvolta acest oraş prin intermediul turismului?”- sublinia Simona Pascariu, specialistă în urbanism. La rândul său Cătălina Preda, specialist pe patrimoniu spunea că: „Mă ocup în cadrul proiectului de punerea în valoare a patriomoniului şi de depistarea proiectelor prioritare din punct de vedere al memoriei locului, al clădirilor importante din toate cele trei localităţi. Sunt convinsă că pentru Băile Herculane, centrul istoric va fi chiar o piatră de încercare pentru că oraşul, fără valorificarea zonei istorice cu greu se va reechilibra. Deci sunt necesare investiţii majore şi întrebarea care se pune dacă proprietarii care au cumpărat pentru a doua sau a treia oară după prima privatizare, deţin resursele necesare acestui program.” Cât despre rolul său Mihai Lupu, specialist în mobilizare comunitară, arăta „În cadrul proiectului ne vom concentra pe sintetizarea informaţiilor disponibile la nivel de comunitate. Împreună cu asistentul local voi asigura legătura între comunitatea locală şi echipa de experţi”.
NICUŞOR VASILESCU: “Proiectele vor avea efecte considerabile asupra comunităţilor locale!”
- Domnule Vasilescu, în calitate de primar al staţiunii, care credeţi că au fost raţiunile ce au stat la baza alegerii Băilor Herculane printre cele trei localităţi beneficiare ale programului?
\r\n– Potenţialul turistic existent în acestă zonă, resursele naturale şi patrimoniul cultural istoric de excepţie cu care este înzestrată una din cele mai vechi staţiuni balneare ale lumii - Băile Herculane -, constituie considerente demne de luat în seamă pentru a selecta staţiunea de pe Valea Cernei în orice proiect important de reabilitare a turismului naţional. Nu multe locuri din lume se pot lăuda cu concentrarea unor asemenea valori care fac parte din patrimoniul universal.
\r\n- Ce impact va avea acest proiect !
\r\n– Avem în vedere o investiţie importantă pentru viitorul bimilenarei staţiuni de pe Valea Cernei. Prin acest proiect, Băile Herculane va avea avantajul unui plan de dezvoltare stimulat de comunitate, cu ţinte măsurabile, şi cu un sistem de monitorizare care va măsura realizările şi zonele unde mai sunt necesare intervenţii. Documentul final al proiectului va sintetiza concluziile echipei de experţi ce se vor concretiza într-un plan de acţiuni imediate, până la un an, pe termen scurt, între unu şi cinci ani şi pe termen mediu şi lung. Aceste acţiuni vor constitui teme de proiecte grupate pe priorităţi pentru care vom căuta să identificăm surse de finanţare. Implicarea Programului Naţiunilor Unite pentru Dezvoltare printr-o echipă multinaţională, conferă o notă de profesionalism proiectului iniţiat de MDRT. Am speranţa că Băile Herculane vor putea rivaliza din nou cu cele mai frumoase staţiuni de pe continent aşa cum se întâmpla pe vremea împăratului Franz Iosef.
\r\n– Care vor fi beneficiile comunităţii pe care o conduceţi ?
\r\n– Fără îndoială că turismul a fost şi va rămâne principalul motor al dezvoltării staţiunii Băile Herculane. Pornind de la ideea că o dezvoltare turistică durabilă nu poate fi generată decât de o comunitate locală prosperă, acest proiect urmăreşte ca, pe baza vizitelor în teren şi a consultării comunităţii locale de către echipa de experţi a PNUD, să genereze propuneri de iniţiative concrete în vederea dezvoltării integrate a zonei.
\r\n– Primăria a participat la ediţia din toamnă a Târgului de Turism al României cu un stand care a avut drept slogan “Staţiunea renaşte!”. Este acest proiect–pilot semnalul renaşterii staţiunii?
\r\n– Să fiţi convins de asta. Impactul proiectului despre care discutăm va fi unul major. Trebuie să menţionăm că Primăria Băile Herculane are deja, în curs de implementare o serie de proiecte care, cu siguranţă vor schimba faţa staţiunii de pe Valea Cernei. O mare parte au fost prezentate în paginile acestei reviste profesioniste. Aş dori să menţionez în primul rând acele proiecte care urmăresc reabilitarea tuturor străzilor, a podurilor, amenajarea peisagistică, modernizarea Parcului Central. În fază avansată de execuţie, se află reabilitarea infrastructurii fizice a Străzii romane, proiect realizat în cadrul unui program de cooperare trasfrontalieră cu Veliko Gradişte, oraş din Serbia, înfrăţit cu Băile Herculane.\r\nAmintesc apoi de proiectul cel mai spectaculos al staţiunii - construirea unui Aquapark de 1.600 locuri care va constitui o premiză importantă pentru dezvoltarea ofertei de agrement a staţiunii ce va atrage un număr sporit de turişti, în special din rândul populaţiei de vârstă activă. Din numeroasele proiecte aflate pe masa de lucru, care vizează dezvoltarea turistică a staţiunii, mai amintesc de: reabilitarea izvoarelor publice din staţiune, lucrările fiind deja terminate la Izvorul de ochi şi Izvorul de cură internă Diana III; reabilitarea traseelor turistice din zona montana a staţiunii; “Băile Herculane – emblemă turistică a Banatului montan” - proiect care are ca scop promovarea obiectivelor turistice, naturale şi antropice, din staţiune şi din împrejurimi; reabilitarea Vilei Elisabeta, care sperăm să se finalizeze anul acesta, mutarea şi amenajarea la standarde actuale a Muzeului de istorie „General Nicolae Cena” în cadrul Vilei Elisabeta după terminarea lucrărilor, transformarea cinematografului într-un centru multicultural, cu săli funcţionale de conferinţe, de spectacol, bibliotecă etc.\r\n\r\nCa de obicei adresăm cititorilor salutul roman „SALUTI ET LAETITIAE!” („Sănătate şi bucurii!”) şi invitaţia de a veni la Băile Herculane pentru a ne redescoperi ospitalitatea.
\r\n\r\nJIM FLANNERY: „Marketingul este cu siguranţă, o investiţie nu o cheltuială !”
\r\n- Domule Jim Flannery sunteţi reprezentantul Organizaţiei Mondiale a Turismului, în cadrul echipei de experţi ai PNUD. V-aţi născut într-un hotel, aţi crescut într-un hotel, primul loc de muncă a fost într-un hotel. Aţi lucrat în diferite organizaţii naţionale din Irlanda sau în programe internaţionale. Interesant este unul din primele mesaje transmise în cadrul întâlnirii de la Băile Herculane cu reprezentanţii sectorului turistic: “costurile legate de activităţile de marketing turistic nu trebuie privită ca nişte cheltuieli neproductive ci ca nişte investiţii!” De ce aţi considerat prioritar acest mesaj?
\r\n- Marketingul este o activitate importantă în dezvoltarea turismului care trebuie luată în calcul chiar de la începutul afacerii. A construi ceva în credinţa că vizitatorii vor veni de la sine ar putea fi caracterizat ca fiind o sinucidere economică. Costurile activităţii de marketing pot fi caracterizate în mod corespunzător mai degrabă ca o investiţie, decât ca o cheltuială, deoarece aceste costuri implicate aduc bani. Costurile caracterizate ca fiind cheltuieli nu produc neapărat bani.\r\n\r\n- Participaţi, în calitate de specialist în domeniul turistic la un proiect important. Ce impresii v-a lăsat staţiunea Băile Herculane ?
\r\n- Băile Herculane a fost odată un oraş foarte frumos, un important centru balnear cu proprietăţi curative. Desigur că staţiunea mai are încă aceste proprietăţi curative, dar frumusetea oraşului este subminată de către starea de degradare ale clădirilor vechi, altă dată frumoase. Nucleul de frumuseţe este încă acolo. E nevoie de muncă pentru a se restaura tot ceea ce a fost frumos odată. Staţiunea de acum ar putea fi descrisă ca fiind foarte „obosită”.
\r\n- Cu ce elemente consideraţi că ar trebui să vină oferta turistică a staţiunii pentru a fi competitivă pe piaţa turistică internaţională?
\r\n- Pentru a răspunde aşteptărilor turismului internaţional, staţiunea va trebui să fie reabilitată la un standard foarte ridicat de calitate cu hoteluri şi pensiuni modernizate care să furnizeze servicii de wellness, servicii curative cât şi atracţii turistice în aer liber în zonele înconjurătoare şi o gamă largă de restaurante. De asemenea va fi nevoie de mici centre de divertisment pentru vizitatori în special pentru a oferi vizitatorilor posibilitatea de a–şi petrece serile într-un mod cât mai plăcut şi atractiv.
\r\n- Puteţi oferi un prognoză turistică pentru cititorii revistei noastre !
\r\n- Turismul se află într-o etapă de mari schimbări în ceea ce priveşte modul în care comercializăm serviciile pe piaţa turistică şi modul în care vizitatorii noştri găsesc sursa de informaţii şi fac rezervări. Gama de opţiuni, acum disponibilă pentru turiştii din întreaga lume care au posibilitatea de a selecta unde să meargă şi ce să facă, este de o mie de ori mai mare decât a fost, sa zicem acum treizeci de ani. Aş dori să închei cu o notă pozitivă. Turismul este acum printre primele trei cele mai mari industrii din lume şi una dintre puţinele cu un trend crescător al veniturilor şi al ocupării forţei de muncă. Este o industrie pe val în care este bine să fii implicat! Şi România face parte din acest val.

TUI România intră în afaceri cu TUI Turcia\r\nAgenţia Nova Travel componentă a grupului Eurolines şi a brandului TUI Travel Center România, a anunţat la Bucureşti că va lansa în luna iunie, primul charter spre spre staţiunile de vacanţă din Antalia (Turcia). Aceasta va fi operată în parteneriat cu TUI Turcia şi compania turcă Pegasus Airlines.\r\n\r\nNicolae Lech, directorul Nova Travel, se aşteaptă ca „în acest an să avem un număr de aproximativ 3.500 de turişti care vor achiziţiona produsul Charter TUI Turcia. El este disponibil atât în reţeaua de distribuţie Eurolines-TUI Travel Center, cât şi în reţeaua de parteneri NOVA Travel. Din 2012 TUI va contribui la ridicarea gradului de satisfacţie a turistului din România. Facem un nou pas către universul “World of TUI” al cărui obiectiv – acela de a aşterne un zâmbet pe faţa fiecărui client - vine mai aproape de turiştii români. În perspectiva anilor 2015 ne aşteptăm ca numărul acestora să crească până la 15.000”.\r\n\r\nTurcia s-a impus în primul rând ca o destinaţie turistică de familie. Produsul se caracterizează printr-o selecţie a celor mai apreciate hoteluri din staţiunile Kemer, Antalya, Lara şi Belek, începând cu hoteluri de 3 stele plus, până la cele de 5 stele plus, de la pachete cu mic dejun inclus până la cele de all inclusive, ultra all inclusive, magnum inclusive etc. Hotelurile – printre care se numără Calista, Adam & Eve, Susesi, Rixos Tekirova, Mardan Palace, Maxx Royal, Fantasia, Hilside Su, Delphin, Cornelia, Venezia etc, au obţinut în sezoanele anterioare calificative superioare din partea turiştilor români şi germani, atât pentru confort cât şi pentru facilităţile oferite – sublinia Mustafa Cencay, director de vânzări şi marketing la Calista Luxury Resort.\r\n\r\nTeoman Obadaş, managing director la Tantur Turizm–TUI Travel, a arătat în cadrul evenimentului că „Siguranţa primului charter marca TUI este dată de numele celor trei companii care au creat acest produs, parteneri care pun pe primul plan respectarea programului prezentat. Orice pachet achiziţionat în perioada de Înscrieri Timpurii sau în afara acesteia se bucură de aceleaşi atribute - siguranţă şi calitate. Avantajul achiziţiei din timp a pachetului turistic îl reprezintă preţul modic. Un avantaj mai puţin vizibil, dar la fel de important, este că turistul are siguranţa hotelului preferat şi poate beneficia de atuurileunei planificări timpurii. Toate avantajele prezentate sunt 100% valabile doar atunci când pachetele turistice sunt cumpărate de la agenţii de turism solide, recunoscute pentru seriozitatea lor pe piaţa turistică.\r\n\r\nDomnul Metin Girgin, director comercial la TUI Turcia a subliniat că „turiştii români vor avea de acum încolo pachete şi aranjamente de vacanţă cu preţuri reale, oferite în peste 45 de hoteluri, de parteneri serioşi şi solizi financiar.\r\n\r\nMomentul în care este lansat produsul charter marca TUI, cu destinaţia Turcia, este cel mai bun pentru a oferi clientului exigent, obişnuit cu vacanţe de calitate, un pachet sigur şi garantat.”\r\nNOVA Travel a mai anunţat că a încheiat anul cu o creştere de peste 21%, în timp ce Grupul Eurolines, din care fac parte 14 companii din România, Germania si Republica Moldova, a prognozat pentru 2011 o creştere de circa 22%, ajungând astfel la o cifră de afaceri de 200 de milioane de lei. 67% din cifra de afaceri a grupului o constituie activitatea companiei Touring Europabus. TUI Travel PLC operează în 180 de ţări, are aproximativ 30 de milioane de clienţi anual şi o cifră totală de afaceri de circa 19 miliarde de euro. La nivel mondial compania deţine trei departamente principale: TUI Travel, TUI Hotels & Resorts, şi Cruises.

A.N.G.R susţine profesionalismul
\r\nSunteţi agenţi de turism profesionişti? Atunci căutaţi ghizi pe măsură! Sunteţi ghizi atestaţi? Atunci aveţi nevoie de Asociaţia Naţională a Ghizilor din România (A.N.G.R).\r\n\r\nA.N.G.R. a fost înfiinţată în 2009 şi este activă din anul 2011. Ea numără în prezent 78 membri. “Estimările noastre arată că, în România, activează, având continuitate, în jur de 350 ghizi. De aceea suntem bucuroşi că un sfert dintre ei sunt membri ai A.N.G.R, prima asociaţie cu activitate susţinută în acest domeniu” – spune Tiberiu Munteanu, ghid de turism şi preşedinte A.N.G.R.\r\n\r\nMembri asociaţiei sunt ghizi atestaţi de către Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului din Romania (M.D.R.T.). Ei asigură desfăşurarea activităţilor turistice (circuite şi sejururi) organizate de către agenţiile de turism, atât în ţară (incoming) cât şi în străinătate (outgoing). Serviciile prestate acoperă o paletă largă de activităţi: de la transferuri aeroport ori la porturile de la Dunăre, de ghizi şoferi, ghizi de muzeu, până la conducători de grup în toate destinaţiile din lume.\r\n\r\nGhizii A.N.G.R, prin experienţa dobândită în circuite, vin mereu cu informaţii de folos agenţilor de turism. Împreună ei pot alcătui produse turistice de calitate, care să îmbine în mod echilibrat atât oferta culturală cât şi componenta de relaxare.\r\n\r\nConsiliul Director al A.N.G.R. organizează periodic întâlniri tematice profesionale. În ultimul an s-au purtat discuţii pe baza unor prezentări cu subiecte diverse precum: “Turism şi Roşia Montană” (Adrian Lucaci), “Metode profesionale de documentare” (Eugenia Kalisz), “Turism oenologic” (Tiberiu Munteanu), etc. Întâlnirile au ca scop schimburi de calitate de experienţă şi îmbogătirea cunoştinţelor membrilor asociaţiei.\r\n\r\nUna dintre marile reuşite ale A.N.G.R. este invitaţia primită de la M.D.R.T. de a participa la modificarea legislaţiei cu privire la activitatea de ghid de turism. Toate propunerile se găsesc pe site-ul asociaţiei www.angr.ro.\r\n\r\n“Consider că asociaţia ne reprezintă, luptă pentru protejarea intereselor noastre profesionale şi sociale, iar afilierea la A.N.G.R oferă prestigiu membrilor şi, în acelaşi timp, dă forţă asociaţiei în ansamblu” – spune Mircea Savu, ghid de turism şi membru al Consiliului Director.\r\nPartenerii A.N.G.R. vin atât din domeniul media (Traveller Magazin şi Travel Mix Channel) cât şi din domeniul formării profesionale (THR-CG) ori al agenţiilor de turism (A.N.A.T şi Invitation Romania Travel).
[/caption]\r\n\r\nPREA MODEŞTI CÂND NU TREBUIE\r\nAsta este concluzia noastră după ce, în ultimele luni, am avut prilejul de a constata că numeroase unităţi de cazare europene una vând pe net şi alta găseşti la faţa locului. La Madrid, Paris, Milano, Florenţa, Roma am observat că sub acest aspect pe afară e vopsit gardul dar când îţi iei camera în primire confortul este sub nivelul preţului plătit. Că hoteluri de 3 şi 4 stele îţi oferă în majoritatea cazurilor condiţii inferioare de cazare. Asta ca să ne păstrăm în termeni... eleganţi.\r\n\r\nDacă privim din cealaltă perspectivă în România - şi ea tot o ţară europeană, s-au construit sute de hoteluri noi, s-au modernizat cele vechi, multe intrate în lanţuri internaţionale. Preţul oferit este inferior în dese situaţii calităţii spaţiilor de cazare şi serviciilor puse la dispoziţie. Exemple la îndemână! Bucureştiul a crescut foarte mult. Oraşe ca Braşov, Sibiu, Târgu Mureş, Cluj, Timişoara, Oradea, Constanţa ori Iaşi, unde de abia aşteptăm să găsim timp să inspectăm noul complex Palas, sunt beneficiarele unor investiţii de top.\r\n\r\nCu toate acestea cei care ne vizitează mai strâmbă din nas la ceea ce oferim deşi în comparaţie cu oraşe europene, suntem într-o poziţie favorabilă. Drept urmare, afirmăm în cunoştinţă de cauză, că ne exprimăm prea modest exact acolo unde nu trebuie. Unele site-uri de prezentare sunt sărăcăcioase, chiar zgârcite cu informaţii vizuale, când ar trebui să fie mai agresive prin ceea ce oferă turistului. Mai ales că realitatea ne ajută. Modestie managerială sau lipsă de inspiraţie în promovarea hotelurilor? Nepricepere sau lipsă de experienţă?\r\n\r\nToate acestea demobilizează business-ul tocmai în momentul în care ar trebui să fie insistent publicitat. Modestia, reluăm, nu face casă bună cu un mediu concurenţial unde proprietarii din alte ţări îşi strigă marfa cu mai mult talent şi devotament. Pentru că din asta trăiesc. \r\n\r\nApoi vedem o neconcordanţă - şi asta spune multe despre mediul de afaceri din turism -, între prestaţiile unor organizaţii ca FPTR, FIHR, ANAT ori ANTREC, care ar trebui să cânte împreună în spectacolul promovării. Scenariu este de bună calitate. Mai trebuie şi actori îndrăzneţi care să pună în operă... piesa. Presa de profil este unul dintre ei. Căutaţi-ne!\r\n\r\nCă nu greşim, ne-o confirmă şi o informaţie recentă. Ea arată că Bucureştiul se află - într-un top întocmit de site-ul www.hotel.info-, pe locul 18 în ceea ce priveşte gradul de satisfacţie al clienţilor hotelurilor dar şi al raportului calitate-preţ. Prima poziţie este ocupată de câţiva ani de Varşovia secondată de Tokio şi Helsinki. Vă spune ceva?\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nDoriţi să citiţi toată revista?

Preţul oferit este inferior în dese situaţii calităţii spaţiilor de cazare şi serviciilor puse la dispoziţie. Exemple la îndemână! Bucureştiul a crescut foarte mult. Oraşe ca Braşov, Sibiu, Târgu Mureş, Cluj, Timişoara, Oradea, Constanţa ori Iaşi, unde de abia aşteptăm să găsim timp să inspectăm noul complex Palas, sunt beneficiarele unor investiţii de top.\r\n\r\nCu toate acestea cei care ne vizitează mai strâmbă din nas la ceea ce oferim deşi în comparaţie cu oraşe europene, suntem într-o poziţie favorabilă. Drept urmare, afirmăm în cunoştinţă de cauză, că ne exprimăm prea modest exact acolo unde nu trebuie. Unele site-uri de prezentare sunt sărăcăcioase, chiar zgârcite cu informaţii vizuale, când ar trebui să fie mai agresive prin ceea ce oferă turistului. Mai ales că realitatea ne ajută. Modestie managerială sau lipsă de inspiraţie în promovarea hotelurilor? Nepricepere sau lipsă de experienţă?\r\n\r\nToate acestea demobilizează business-ul tocmai în momentul în care ar trebui să fie insistent publicitat. Modestia, reluăm, nu face casă bună cu un mediu concurenţial unde proprietarii din alte ţări îşi strigă marfa cu mai mult talent şi devotament. Pentru că din asta trăiesc. \r\n\r\nApoi vedem o neconcordanţă - şi asta spune multe despre mediul de afaceri din turism -, între prestaţiile unor organizaţii ca FPTR, FIHR, ANAT ori ANTREC, care ar trebui să cânte împreună în spectacolul promovării. Scenariu este de bună calitate. Mai trebuie şi actori îndrăzneţi care să pună în operă... piesa. Presa de profil este unul dintre ei. Căutaţi-ne!\r\n\r\nCă nu greşim, ne-o confirmă şi o informaţie recentă. Ea arată că Bucureştiul se află - într-un top întocmit de site-ul www.hotel.info-, pe locul 18 în ceea ce priveşte gradul de satisfacţie al clienţilor hotelurilor dar şi al raportului calitate-preţ. Prima poziţie este ocupată de câţiva ani de Varşovia secondată de Tokio şi Helsinki. Vă spune ceva?\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nDoriţi să citiţi toată revista?

\nDeşi toată lumea se plânge de criza financiară, sau o ia pe post de scuză în business, în domeniul turismului statisticile înregistează creştere... pe toată linia! Comisia Europeană de Travel (CET) indică procente peste anul 2008 iar analizele World Travel Market de anul trecut vorbesc despre noile trenduri: moda de a alege călătorii cu destinaţie necunoscută sau plata serviciilor cu telefonul mobil.
Publicat în luna ianuarie de către Comisia Europeană de Travel raportul „European Tourism in 2011 – Trends &Prospects” arată că anul trecut a marcat un record pentru industria călătoriilor din Europa. Vizitele internaţionale în Europa au crescut cu 6%, depăşind astfel vârful înregistrat în 2008. Companiile aeriene au servit cu 5% mai mulţi pasageri ca în 2010, iar hotelurile au indicat o creştere de 3,2% a gradului de ocupare. Numărul de turişti a crescut în 22 din 23 de ţări raportoare, creşterea variind de la 3% în Marea Britanie, la peste 20% în Letonia şi Lituania. În timp ce pieţele tradiţionale vestice ale turismului european stagnează sau cresc foarte puţin, Europa de Est pare a recupera teren în plin sezon: gradul de ocupare al hotelurilor a crescut cu 10,4% in luna august a anului trecut, faţă de aceeaşi perioadă din 2010.
\n
Mai mulţi şi buni!
\nPe acest fond specialiştii par să se fi pus de acord că cei mai buni turişti vor proveni din SUA şi China. Un studiu cerut de Hilton Hotels&Resorts arată că în 2010 Europa a fost vizitată de circa 3 milioane de turişti chinezi. Ei s-au îndreptat cu precădere spre ţări bine promovate şi cunoscute, precum Italia, Franţa şi Germania.
\nÎn continuare analizele spun că piaţa asiatică va fi un furnizor constant pentru Europa, în creştere cu câteva sute de mii de călători în fiecare an. Pentru anul 2020 ar trebui să ne pregătim să vedem în jur de 8,6 milioane clienţi chinezi! Se estimează că în perioada 2010-2015 ei vor fi o sursă extraordinară de venit, aducând cei mai mulţi bani după turiştii americani. Deja cu un pas înainte, companiile hoteliere au început să-şi reorienteze campaniile de promovare a brandurilor către piaţa asiatică, mai ales către clienţii corporate, şi să se gândească la a produce servicii speciale.\n\nDeşi americanii călătoresc mai aproape de casă ei rămân clienţi bănoşi, cu o medie de 4% creştere a cheltuielilor efectuate în străinătate. În 2010 călătoriile peste oceane ale americanilor au scăzut cu 6%, în timp Mexicul şi Canada au crescut cu 3, respectiv 1%. Întop 5 destinaţii favorite găsim: Mexicul (20 milioane), Canada (11.7 milioane), Marea Britanie (2.4 milioane), Republica Dominicană (1.8 milioane), Franţa şi Italia (fiecare cu câte 1.8 milioane).\n\n\n
Unde se vând “pachete misterioase”!
\nÎn urma Târgului de turism desfăşurat în toamnă, la Londra, World Travel Market 2011, au rezultat câteva observaţii interesante cu privire la profilul noilor consumatori de turism. În SUA pare a fi venit moda pachetelor turistice “misterioase”. Clienţii între 20 şi 34 ani licitează online pe pachete anunţate de către agenţi ca fiind cu 50% mai ieftine la momentul respectiv. Turistul cumpără dar nu ştie ce. Coordonatele călătoriei (destinaţie, hoteluri, condiţii) sunt necunoscute la momentul achiziţiei, urmând a le fi transmise ulterior. Pentru cei aventuroşi există o variantă în care detaliile fiecărei zile sunt transmise pe telefon sau mail! Tot cu mobilul se descurcă şi continentul african, unde plata cu telefonul (M-commerce) este la ordinea zilei. 60% din utilizatorii de telefoane cu servicii internet plătesc astfel. Serviciul de transfer bani prin telefonul mobil, M-PESA, facilitează kenyenilor fără conturi bancare achiziţia de călătorii sau bilete de avion. În 2010 Kenya Airways şi Uganda Airlines au intrat în sistemul M-PESA. Anul trecut creşterea PIB pe continentul african a fost de 5%.
\n
Orientul Mijlociu – în scădere
\nDupă creşterea de 11,5 % din 2010 a pieţelor din Orientul Mijlociu, anul trecut instabilitatea zonei a dus la o cădere de 6,2 % a incomingului. Mai multe ţări anunţă noi campanii de promovare şi se estimează o revenire cu 1,3% în 2012.\nTurismul european se va menţine probabil, fără surprize pe parcursul acestui an, într-un echilibru tradiţional. O nouă orientare, interesantă, este cea a hotelierilor care încep promovarea produselor locale. Multe unităţi îşi atrag chiar clienţii prin meniurile restaurantelor în care apar legume cultivate în grădinile proprii! Şi că tot veni vorba de grădini, în Marea Britanie, turiştii activi, mobili, au găsit o nouă variantă de cazare: închiriază o grădină în care să-şi pună rulota! Soluţia ingenioasă a fost găsită ca o alternativă la cazările tradiţonale, din cauza Jocurilor Olimpice preţurile la hoteluri înregistrând o creştere de până la cinci ori. Una dintre concluziile specialiştilor care s-au întâlnit la WTM 2011 a fost că, pentru toate pieţele, bătălia pe termen lung va fi câştigată de campanile de marketing online, în timp ce aplicaţiile pentru noile suporturi media vor avea de câştigat pe termen mediu.

Pare simplu, dar nu e! A recomanda, a testa, a prezenta o băutură, înseamnă a cunoaşte. Cunoaşterea este o investiţie. Iar somelierul modern pare a fi magicianul care scoate dintr-un pahar rezultatul acestei investiţii. Nu este chiar aşa de uşor să ajungi în vârful topului. S-a văzut la concursul marcat de cea de-a XII-a ediţie a Trofeului Someleriei 2012. Semifinalele s-au consumat la Pivniţele Rhein 1892 Azuga, unde s-au întâlnit 20 de somelieri veniţi cu mari speranţe din toată ţara. Dintre aceştia doar trei au ajuns în finală şi s-au întrecut pentru ocuparea locului I ori pentru adjudecarea Trofeului, care din acest an poartă numele celui care a fost John E. Halewood – fondatorul grupului Halewood Romania. Halewood a fost şi proprietarul cele mai mari case independente producătoare de vinuri şi băuturi alcoolice din Marea Britanie – Halewood International.\r\n\r\nDecizia a fost luată de comun acord de către organizatori şi sponsor, adică de către Asociatia Somelierilor din România (A.S.R.), organizaţie profesională afiliată la Asociaţia Someleriei Internaţionale (ASI) şi Halewood România, un grup care promovează vinurile de calitate prin companiile Cramele Halewood (care este şi Furnizorul oficial al Casei Regale a României), Halewood Romania, Domeniile Halewood şi Halewood International Premium Imports, provenite din proprietăţi, crame şi plantaţii de viţă de vie din regiunile Dealu Mare, Podişul Transilvaniei şi Murfatlar.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Somelier-067.jpg\" "\\"Somelier")
\r\n\r\nJuriul sferturilor şi semifinalei Trofeului Someleriei 2012 - John Halewood -, a fost format din Doru Dumitrescu (liderul Asociaţiei Somelierilor din România, dublu semifinalist european, semifinalist mondial), Virgil Dumitraşcu (vicepreşedinte ASR, semifinalist mondial), Florin Ivan (secretar general, campion naţional) şi Marius Bratu (Business Development Manager Cramele Halewood, semifinalist european). Juriul finalei compus din 3 comisii, fiecare reunind câte 3 specialişti recunoscuţi în domeniu: servirea şi decantarea au fost evaluate de Toma Cornelia, Florin Voica şi Marius Bratu; degustarea vinului şi a băuturilor spirtoase a fost notată de Daniel Zottu, Dan Ghejan şi Mircea Niculescu, iar cei care au evaluat cunoştintele despre asocieri culinare şi meniuri au fost Florin Ivan, Dan Alexandru şi Cristian Başchir.\r\n\r\nÎn urma unui punctaj foarte strâns Eduard Jakab a fost desemnat cel mai bun somelier al anului în România, ocupând locul 1. Trofeul John E. Halewood a fost câştigat de către Mihai Vasiloiu, ocupantul pe locul 2. Poziţia a 3-a a revenit lui Adrian Dinu. De asemenea Mihaela Tyrel de POIX, fosta soţie a contelui de Guy, regretatul fondator al companiei Serve, a oferit în amintirea acestuia un premiu de suflet Magdalenei Şuleapă, care va urma un stagiu de iniţiere la Londra.\r\nDupă cum au precizat Mihai Chitic, directorul comercial al Cramelor Halewood şi Doru Dumitrescu, preşedintele ASR, e de remarcat faptul că “Trofeul Someleriei a fost organizat, pentru a şasea oară consecutiv, în această asociere. Ea se dovedeşte de bun augur atât pentru competiţie cât şi pentru participanţi.

A recomanda, a testa, a prezenta o băutură, înseamnă a cunoaşte. Cunoaşterea este o investiţie. Iar somelierul modern pare a fi magicianul care scoate dintr-un pahar rezultatul acestei investiţii. Nu este chiar aşa de uşor să ajungi în vârful topului. S-a văzut la concursul marcat de cea de-a XII-a ediţie a Trofeului Someleriei 2012. Semifinalele s-au consumat la Pivniţele Rhein 1892 Azuga, unde s-au întâlnit 20 de somelieri veniţi cu mari speranţe din toată ţara. Dintre aceştia doar trei au ajuns în finală şi s-au întrecut pentru ocuparea locului I ori pentru adjudecarea Trofeului, care din acest an poartă numele celui care a fost John E. Halewood – fondatorul grupului Halewood Romania. Halewood a fost şi proprietarul cele mai mari case independente producătoare de vinuri şi băuturi alcoolice din Marea Britanie – Halewood International.\n\nDecizia a fost luată de comun acord de către organizatori şi sponsor, adică de către Asociatia Somelierilor din România (A.S.R.), organizaţie profesională afiliată la Asociaţia Someleriei Internaţionale (ASI) şi Halewood România, un grup care promovează vinurile de calitate prin companiile Cramele Halewood (care este şi Furnizorul oficial al Casei Regale a României), Halewood Romania, Domeniile Halewood şi Halewood International Premium Imports, provenite din proprietăţi, crame şi plantaţii de viţă de vie din regiunile Dealu Mare, Podişul Transilvaniei şi Murfatlar.\n\nJuriul sferturilor şi semifinalei Trofeului Someleriei 2012 - John Halewood -, a fost format din Doru Dumitrescu (liderul Asociaţiei Somelierilor din România, dublu semifinalist european, semifinalist mondial), Virgil Dumitraşcu (vicepreşedinte ASR, semifinalist mondial), Florin Ivan (secretar general, campion naţional) şi Marius Bratu (Business Development Manager Cramele Halewood, semifinalist european). Juriul finalei compus din 3 comisii, fiecare reunind câte 3 specialişti recunoscuţi în domeniu: servirea şi decantarea au fost evaluate de Toma Cornelia, Florin Voica şi Marius Bratu; degustarea vinului şi a băuturilor spirtoase a fost notată de Daniel Zottu, Dan Ghejan şi Mircea Niculescu, iar cei care au evaluat cunoştintele despre asocieri culinare şi meniuri au fost Florin Ivan, Dan Alexandru şi Cristian Başchir.\n\nÎn urma unui punctaj foarte strâns Eduard Jakab a fost desemnat cel mai bun somelier al anului în România, ocupând locul 1. Trofeul John E. Halewood a fost câştigat de către Mihai Vasiloiu, ocupantul pe locul 2. Poziţia a 3-a a revenit lui Adrian Dinu. De asemenea Mihaela Tyrel de POIX, fosta soţie a contelui de Guy, regretatul fondator al companiei Serve, a oferit în amintirea acestuia un premiu de suflet Magdalenei Şuleapă, care va urma un stagiu de iniţiere la Londra.\nDupă cum au precizat Mihai Chitic, directorul comercial al Cramelor Halewood şi Doru Dumitrescu, preşedintele ASR, e de remarcat faptul că “Trofeul Someleriei a fost organizat, pentru a şasea oară consecutiv, în această asociere. Ea se dovedeşte de bun augur atât pentru competiţie cât şi pentru participanţi. Desigur sunt aşteptaţi şi alţi sponsori care să contribuie la creşterea valorii premiilor şi a calităţii concursului care a devenit un eveniment profesional foarte apreciat nu numai de către reprezentanţii industriei turistice.” Cei doi lideri au convingerea că “numărul tinerilor care vor veni spre această profesie va fi din ce în ce mai mare. Aici însă patronii de hoteluri şi restaurante vor juca un rol foarte important.” Finala a fost găzduită de hotelul Ramada Majestic din Bucureşti.

ROMEXPO TTR – Turişti, puneţi geamantanul la picior ! \r\nNumărul participanţilor dar mai ales calitatea evenimentului de la Romexpo, ne referim la Târgul de Turism al României, a 27-ea ediţie, au atras peste 25.000 de fani ai vacanţelor, doritori să intre în acest club deschis tot timpul anului. Dacă punem la socoteală că lupta orgoliilor s-a încheiat într-o variantă înţeleaptă (adică decât să pierdem ANAT şi ROMEXPO, mai bine să câştigăm împreună), se înţelege de ce ediţia de la Romexpo (15-18 martie), a marcat un progres clar. Ea poate emite pretenţii comparative.\r\n\r\nAcest lucru a fost apreciat de vizitatori, care s-au afluit încă de la primele ore ale ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Tirg-2012-084.jpg\" "\\"Tirg")
deschiderii TTR. Oficial ea a fost marcată de speach-urile lui Cristian Petrescu, ministrul turismului, care a militat pentru turismul activ, respectiv al Marianei Suciu, directorul general al Romexpo, care a imprimat partenerilor de dialog o linie discretă de respect. Care parteneri au fost Camerele de Comerţ şi Industrie din România, Asociaţia Naţională a Agenţiilor de Turism – ANAT, Federaţia Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc – FPTR, Asociaţia Naţionala de Turism Rural, Ecologic şi Cultural – ANTREC şi Organizaţia Patronala a Turismului Balnear – OPTBR. Centrul Expoziţional Romexpo din Bucureşti a atras circa 220 de participanţi din 25 de ţări ce şi-au expus ofertele pe o suprafaţă de peste 15.000 de metri pătraţi.O creştere a interesului în comparaţie cu ediţia din toamna lui 2011, cânt au fost 110 participanţi din 19 ţări ce au acoperit o suprafaţă de doar 8.500 de metri pătraţi.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Tirg-Zikos-Konstantinos.jpg\" "\\"Tirg")
La vacanţe înainte, dar….\r\nOrientaţi-vă în piaţă. Prima recomandare – atenţie de unde cumpăraţi! Ştiţi sigur că produsele ieftine ascund o serie de… capcane. Deseori la sfârşitul vacanţei aţi cheltuit mai mult pe ceva modest, decât dacă aţi fi cumpărat de la început o vacanţă de calitate. Pe outgoing, ne-au atras atenţia standurile agenţiilor Christian Tour şi Paralela 45, bine articulate şi organizate la capitolul comunicare şi promovare de oferte. Christian Tour a lansat, printre altele, marca Memento Holidays, a doua din bugetul creativ al companiei. Ea se adresează în principal familiilor cu copii şi marchează împreună cu Senior Voyage, 15 ani de activitate a travel agentului. Acest tip de programe oferă pe anumite destinaţii transportul gratuit pentru copii, gratuităţi la cazare, masă, excursii opţionale etc. Tot în premieră pentru România, Christian Tour a lansat conceptul de family club. În curând ofertele se vor regăsi pe sistemul mementoholidays.com. Paralela 45 a fost campioană, se pare, la oferte de discount şi înscrieri timpurii, oferind peste 25 de destinaţii încadrate în această categorie. O altă noutate a fost anunţată de către Mircea Vladu, liderul Prestige Tour, parte a grupului Happy Tour. Începând cu 25 aprilie va fi lansată prima cursă charter ce va lega Bucureştiul de staţiunea Eilat (Israel). Ea e operată în parteneriat cu Tarom. De asemenea World Travel, companie manageriată de Carmen ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Tirg-2012-062.jpg\" "\\"Tirg")
Demetriade, a arătat vizitatorilor ce înseamnă să călătoreşti cu cele mai noi nave de croazieră, devenite veritabile oraşe plutitoare. “Allure of the Sea” şi “Ocean of the Sea” sunt două dintre ele.\r\n\r\nMai nasol stăm la capitolul turism intern şi incoming. Agenţia Accent Travel & Events este unul dintre puţinii operatori care au investit consistent în promovarea destinaţiilor naţionale, segmentul balnear fiind favoritul viitorului, şi acest demers se regăseşte deja în cifrele de afaceri. Nu chiar pe măsura aşteptărilor, dar timpul va arăta ora exactă a succesului pentru compania condusă de Lucian Boronea. La fel şi la agenţiile Mareea şi Eximtur, care vor trebui să crească şi în investiţiile de imagine de firmă nu numai în cele comerciale. La capitolul standuri-brand, am remarcat prezenţa Ungariei, care s-a promovat cu conceptul integrat - ape termale, wellness şi spa, vectorii principali ai campaniei de promovare şi pentru anul acesta – ne spunea Julia Soos, directorul Biroului de turism de la Cluj al acestei ţări. Apoi standul Greciei unde Konstantinos Zikos, preşedintele Organizaţiei Naţionale de Turism, ne-a prezentat noile tendinţe ofertate de această ţară cu bogate tradiţii folclorice şi gastronomice. Dintre destinaţiile străine, vedeta veri ar putea fi Muntenegru. De studiat. În rest vizitatorii au avut de ales între vacanţe cu preţuri cuprinse între 150 şi peste 5.000 de euro.\r\n....................................................................\r\nTravel Mix a împlinit 1 an

Şi ne pare bine. Deşi nu avem încă o industrie turistică matură, care să fie preocupată de investiţiile în publicitate şi imagine, prima televiziune de turism autohtonă – Travel Mix a aniversat 1 an de emisie. E o performanţă. Evenimentul la care am participat ne-a făcut să credem că peste câţiva ani o echipă tânără, ce va creşte cu singuranţă în expresie şi diversitate, va performa în domeniu. În calitate de parteneri vom fi alături de ei, pentru că facem parte din acelaşi partid – cel al turismului. Laurenţiu Megelea – Directorul general al Travel Mix a mulţumit tuturor care au fost alături de proiect încă de la început şi a promis, că va contribui în continuare la dezvoltarea României, printr-o promovare cât mai bună a obiectivelor turistice româneşti şi atragerea unui număr cât mai mare de turişti. Televiziunea Naţională de Turism Travel Mix s-a lansat anul trecut, în luna martie şi de atunci oferă posibilitatea telespectatorilor să descopere noi concepte şi destinaţii turistice. Travel Mix este recepţionată de abonaţii UPC Digital Naţional - canalul 309, abonaţii NextGen Digital Naţional, Ines IPTV, AdNet Telecom şi pe internet, la adresa www.travelmix.ro.\r\nMai subliniem că revista noastră a marcat 15 ani de presă de turism, iar în calitate de partener media al TTR, a acordat 2 premii la Tombola Târgului.

BALUL VIENEZ – fineţuri muzicale şi gastronomice
\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Bal-Martie-089.jpg\" "\\"Bal")
În fiecare primăvară, de şapte ani încoace, şarmul artistic al austriecilor se etalează cu eleganţă la Palatul Parlamentului din Bucureşti. Balul Vienez este un eveniment montat de către managerii hotelului J.W. Marriott din Bucureşti.
Când li s-a terminat mandatul, unii au plecat, alţii au rămas să-şi dezvolte afaceri proprii, dar în urma lor a rămas această manifestare care exprimă valoarea şi potenţa mediului de afaceri austriac în România. La începutul lunii martie el şi-a etalat din nou disponibilitatea de a susţinte o manifestare caritabilă în esenţă, plină de eleganţă şi unicitate dacă este să ne referim la partea artistică, inclusiv gastronomică. Cea de-a VII-a ediţie a rămas consecventă aceluiaşi crez, de sumele strânse prin donaţii, participaţii şi sponsorizări beneficiind filiala românească a fundaţia americane United Way. Banii sunt direcţionaţi în programe de asistenţă socială dar şi de pregătire şi învăţământ. Tot ca de obicei Balul Vienez, devenit o marcă de referinţă în peisajul autohton, a avut loc sub auspiciile oraşului![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Bal-Martie-106.jpg\" "\\"Bal")
Viena, sub înaltul patronaj al Primarului şi Guvernatorului său, Dr. Michael Häupl, cu sprijinul unor sponsori importanţi. Haupl este, de ani buni, un susţinător al dezvoltării relaţiilor culturale cu Bucureştiul el fiind în numeroase ocazii, după cum spunea un bun cunoscător “cel mai român dintre austrieci şi cel mai austriac dintre români”.
1.000 pentru tradiţie\r\nIgael Porecki, actualul director deneral al J.W. Marriott, descria astfel manifestarea: “Balul Vienez, organizat de J.W. Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel, este un eveniment artistic care ne onorează şi ne reprezintă în acelaşi timp. Este o mare plăcere să aducem eleganţa balurilor vieneze în Bucureşti, Vienna Ball fiind singurul din România care reconstruieşte această atmosferă. Echipa hotelului J.W. Marriott şi partenerii noştri au pregătit cu multă pasiune şi minuţiozitate această seară de gală. Ca în fiecare an, am aşteptat circa 1.000 de oaspeţi, parteneri şi sponsori, cărora cred că le-am oferit o seară într-adevar unică. Le mulţumim tuturor pentru sprijin, pentru că ne sunt alături în eforturile noastre de a ajuta organizaţia United Way Romania, beneficiarul tradiţional al balului!”
\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Bal-Martie-014.jpg\" "\\"Bal")
McGregor şi Dansul Florilor\r\nSeara balului a fost deschisă de prestigioasa orchestră a Palatului Schönbrunn, avându-l ca dirijor pe elegantul maestru Russel McGregor, care s-a dovedit un dansator magic printre instrumentişti. Fireşte, cum altfel, punctul culminant al balului, devenit tradiţie, a fost asigurat de defilarea celor 80 de debutanţi, tinere în rochii albe, tinerii în smockinguri de gală. Au fost aplaudaţi la... scenă deschisă, pe tot parcursul defilării lor – pe creaţia “Feuerfest” de Joseph Strauss, în cele trei săli ale Palatului Parlamentului. Coregrafia a aparţinut lui Martin Ground şi Virgil Grigore. La fel de emoţionant a fost momentul marcat de Dansul Florilor prezentat de copiii de la Şcoala de Balet a Operei Române de Stat, coordonat de pasionata şi riguroasa Magda Rovinescu. Dar atmosfera serii, care s-a prelungit până a doua zi dimineaţă, a fost completată de duetul austriac Elisabeth Bauer şi Sebastian Huppmann, interpreţii unor arii cunoscute din operete, şi revigorată la momente oportune de către Horia Brenciu - care a prestat şi pe post de prezentator alături de Raluca Fişer. Orchestra sa are alură şi repertoriu de greutate internaţională. Distinctă şi particularizată evoluţia tinerei interprete Juliana Puşchilă.
Din Porto spre Madagascar\r\nTot în ritm de vals s-au desfăşurat şi delicatesele gastronomice puse în operă de către echipa lui Nicolae Lică, Cheful executiv al J.W.Marriott Grand Hotel. Din “partiturile” sale gastronomice am selectat... Pieptul de raţă afumat cu aromă de piper, servit cu pară fiartă în vin rose, jeleu din fruncte de pădure, crocant de migdale, un Amuse Bouche, rafinat; Duetul din terină de ficat de gâscă, aromată cu trufe negre, smochine, brioşă de unt şi mousse de morun afumat cu caviar negru, respectiv muşchiuleţul de vită de lapte la grătar servit cu momiţe pane, arpagic brezat şi legume proaspete în sos de vin de Porto. Finalul a aparţinut unui tort tradiţional făcut după rigorile artei austriece, o ciocolată savuroasă acompaniată cu vişine, nucă şi sos de vanilie de Madagascar.

Dacă punem la socoteală că lupta orgoliilor s-a încheiat într-o variantă înţeleaptă (adică decât să pierdem ANAT şi ROMEXPO, mai bine să câştigăm împreună), se înţelege de ce ediţia de la Romexpo (15-18 martie), a marcat un progres clar. Ea poate emite pretenţii comparative.\n\nAcest lucru a fost apreciat de vizitatori, care s-au afluit încă de la primele ore ale deschiderii TTR. Oficial ea a fost marcată de speach-urile lui Cristian Petrescu, ministrul turismului, care a militat pentru turismul activ, respectiv al Marianei Suciu, directorul general al Romexpo, care a imprimat partenerilor de dialog o linie discretă de respect. Care parteneri au fost Camerele de Comerţ şi Industrie din România, Asociaţia Naţională a Agenţiilor de Turism – ANAT, Federaţia Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc – FPTR, Asociaţia Naţionala de Turism Rural, Ecologic şi Cultural – ANTREC şi Organizaţia Patronala a Turismului Balnear – OPTBR. Centrul Expoziţional Romexpo din Bucureşti a atras circa 220 de participanţi din 25 de ţări ce şi-au expus ofertele pe o suprafaţă de peste 15.000 de metri pătraţi.O creştere a interesului în comparaţie cu ediţia din toamna lui 2011, cânt au fost 110 participanţi din 19 ţări ce au acoperit o suprafaţă de doar 8.500 de metri pătraţi.\n\nLa vacanţe înainte, dar….\nOrientaţi-vă în piaţă. Prima recomandare – atenţie de unde cumpăraţi! Ştiţi sigur că produsele ieftine ascund o serie de… capcane. Deseori la sfârşitul vacanţei aţi cheltuit mai mult pe ceva modest, decât dacă aţi fi cumpărat de la început o vacanţă de calitate. Pe outgoing, ne-au atras atenţia standurile agenţiilor Christian Tour şi Paralela 45, bine articulate şi organizate la capitolul comunicare şi promovare de oferte. Christian Tour a lansat, printre altele, marca Memento Holidays, a doua din bugetul creativ al companiei. Ea se adresează în principal familiilor cu copii şi marchează împreună cu Senior Voyage, 15 ani de activitate a travel agentului. Acest tip de programe oferă pe anumite destinaţii transportul gratuit pentru copii, gratuităţi la cazare, masă, excursii opţionale etc. Tot în premieră pentru România, Christian Tour a lansat conceptul de family club. În curând ofertele se vor regăsi pe sistemul mementoholidays.com. Paralela 45 a fost campioană, se pare, la oferte de discount şi înscrieri timpurii, oferind peste 25 de destinaţii încadrate în această categorie. O altă noutate a fost anunţată de către Mircea Vladu, liderul Prestige Tour, parte a grupului Happy Tour. Începând cu 25 aprilie va fi lansată prima cursă charter ce va lega Bucureştiul de staţiunea Eilat (Israel). Ea e operată în parteneriat cu Tarom. De asemenea World Travel, companie manageriată de Carmen Demetriade, a arătat vizitatorilor ce înseamnă să călătoreşti cu cele mai noi nave de croazieră, devenite veritabile oraşe plutitoare. “Allure of the Sea” şi “Ocean of the Sea” sunt două dintre ele.\n\nMai nasol stăm la capitolul turism intern şi incoming. Agenţia Accent Travel & Events este unul dintre puţinii operatori care au investit consistent în promovarea destinaţiilor naţionale, segmentul balnear fiind favoritul viitorului, şi acest demers se regăseşte deja în cifrele de afaceri. Nu chiar pe măsura aşteptărilor, dar timpul va arăta ora exactă a succesului pentru compania condusă de Lucian Boronea. La fel şi la agenţiile Mareea şi Eximtur, care vor trebui să crească şi în investiţiile de imagine de firmă nu numai în cele comerciale. La capitolul standuri-brand, am remarcat prezenţa Ungariei, care s-a promovat cu conceptul integrat - ape termale, wellness şi spa, vectorii principali ai campaniei de promovare şi pentru anul acesta – ne spunea Julia Soos, directorul Biroului de turism de la Cluj al acestei ţări. Apoi standul Greciei unde Konstantinos Zikos, preşedintele Organizaţiei Naţionale de Turism, ne-a prezentat noile tendinţe ofertate de această ţară cu bogate tradiţii folclorice şi gastronomice. Dintre destinaţiile străine, vedeta veri ar putea fi Muntenegru. De studiat. În rest vizitatorii au avut de ales între vacanţe cu preţuri cuprinse între 150 şi peste 5.000 de euro.\n....................................................................\nTravel Mix a împlinit 1 an
\nŞi ne pare bine. Deşi nu avem încă o industrie turistică matură, care să fie preocupată de investiţiile în publicitate şi imagine, prima televiziune de turism autohtonă – Travel Mix a aniversat 1 an de emisie. E o performanţă. Evenimentul la care am participat ne-a făcut să credem că peste câţiva ani o echipă tânără, ce va creşte cu singuranţă în expresie şi diversitate, va performa în domeniu. În calitate de parteneri vom fi alături de ei, pentru că facem parte din acelaşi partid – cel al turismului. Laurenţiu Megelea – Directorul general al Travel Mix a mulţumit tuturor care au fost alături de proiect încă de la început şi a promis, că va contribui în continuare la dezvoltarea României, printr-o promovare cât mai bună a obiectivelor turistice româneşti şi atragerea unui număr cât mai mare de turişti. Televiziunea Naţională de Turism Travel Mix s-a lansat anul trecut, în luna martie şi de atunci oferă posibilitatea telespectatorilor să descopere noi concepte şi destinaţii turistice. Travel Mix este recepţionată de abonaţii UPC Digital Naţional - canalul 309, abonaţii NextGen Digital Naţional, Ines IPTV, AdNet Telecom şi pe internet, la adresa www.travelmix.ro.\nMai subliniem că revista noastră a marcat 15 ani de presă de turism, iar în calitate de partener media al TTR, a acordat 2 premii la Tombola Târgului.

BALUL VIENEZ – fineţuri muzicale şi gastronomice
\nÎn fiecare primăvară, de şapte ani încoace, şarmul artistic al austriecilor se etalează cu eleganţă la Palatul Parlamentului din Bucureşti. Balul Vienez este un eveniment montat de către managerii hotelului J.W. Marriott din Bucureşti.
Când li s-a terminat mandatul, unii au plecat, alţii au rămas să-şi dezvolte afaceri proprii, dar în urma lor a rămas această manifestare care exprimă valoarea şi potenţa mediului de afaceri austriac în România. La începutul lunii martie el şi-a etalat din nou disponibilitatea de a susţinte o manifestare caritabilă în esenţă, plină de eleganţă şi unicitate dacă este să ne referim la partea artistică, inclusiv gastronomică. Cea de-a VII-a ediţie a rămas consecventă aceluiaşi crez, de sumele strânse prin donaţii, participaţii şi sponsorizări beneficiind filiala românească a fundaţia americane United Way. Banii sunt direcţionaţi în programe de asistenţă socială dar şi de pregătire şi învăţământ. Tot ca de obicei Balul Vienez, devenit o marcă de referinţă în peisajul autohton, a avut loc sub auspiciile oraşului Viena, sub înaltul patronaj al Primarului şi Guvernatorului său, Dr. Michael Häupl, cu sprijinul unor sponsori importanţi. Haupl este, de ani buni, un susţinător al dezvoltării relaţiilor culturale cu Bucureştiul el fiind în numeroase ocazii, după cum spunea un bun cunoscător “cel mai român dintre austrieci şi cel mai austriac dintre români”.
\n1.000 pentru tradiţie\nIgael Porecki, actualul director deneral al J.W. Marriott, descria astfel manifestarea: “Balul Vienez, organizat de J.W. Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel, este un eveniment artistic care ne onorează şi ne reprezintă în acelaşi timp. Este o mare plăcere să aducem eleganţa balurilor vieneze în Bucureşti, Vienna Ball fiind singurul din România care reconstruieşte această atmosferă. Echipa hotelului J.W. Marriott şi partenerii noştri au pregătit cu multă pasiune şi minuţiozitate această seară de gală. Ca în fiecare an, am aşteptat circa 1.000 de oaspeţi, parteneri şi sponsori, cărora cred că le-am oferit o seară într-adevar unică. Le mulţumim tuturor pentru sprijin, pentru că ne sunt alături în eforturile noastre de a ajuta organizaţia United Way Romania, beneficiarul tradiţional al balului!”
\nMcGregor şi Dansul Florilor\nSeara balului a fost deschisă de prestigioasa orchestră a Palatului Schönbrunn, avându-l ca dirijor pe elegantul maestru Russel McGregor, care s-a dovedit un dansator magic printre instrumentişti. Fireşte, cum altfel, punctul culminant al balului, devenit tradiţie, a fost asigurat de defilarea celor 80 de debutanţi, tinere în rochii albe, tinerii în smockinguri de gală. Au fost aplaudaţi la... scenă deschisă, pe tot parcursul defilării lor – pe creaţia “Feuerfest” de Joseph Strauss, în cele trei săli ale Palatului Parlamentului. Coregrafia a aparţinut lui Martin Ground şi Virgil Grigore. La fel de emoţionant a fost momentul marcat de Dansul Florilor prezentat de copiii de la Şcoala de Balet a Operei Române de Stat, coordonat de pasionata şi riguroasa Magda Rovinescu. Dar atmosfera serii, care s-a prelungit până a doua zi dimineaţă, a fost completată de duetul austriac Elisabeth Bauer şi Sebastian Huppmann, interpreţii unor arii cunoscute din operete, şi revigorată la momente oportune de către Horia Brenciu - care a prestat şi pe post de prezentator alături de Raluca Fişer. Orchestra sa are alură şi repertoriu de greutate internaţională. Distinctă şi particularizată evoluţia tinerei interprete Juliana Puşchilă.
\nDin Porto spre Madagascar\nTot în ritm de vals s-au desfăşurat şi delicatesele gastronomice puse în operă de către echipa lui Nicolae Lică, Cheful executiv al J.W.Marriott Grand Hotel. Din “partiturile” sale gastronomice am selectat... Pieptul de raţă afumat cu aromă de piper, servit cu pară fiartă în vin rose, jeleu din fruncte de pădure, crocant de migdale, un Amuse Bouche, rafinat; Duetul din terină de ficat de gâscă, aromată cu trufe negre, smochine, brioşă de unt şi mousse de morun afumat cu caviar negru, respectiv muşchiuleţul de vită de lapte la grătar servit cu momiţe pane, arpagic brezat şi legume proaspete în sos de vin de Porto. Finalul a aparţinut unui tort tradiţional făcut după rigorile artei austriece, o ciocolată savuroasă acompaniată cu vişine, nucă şi sos de vanilie de Madagascar. Alte trei accente punem pe vinurile cramei LacertA, pe aranjamentele florale de la Iris şi atmosfera de spectacol asigurată de cei de la Sobranie. Dansaţi?

În ultima decadă a lunii aprilie, mai precis între 21 şi 25 aprilie, californienii vor face o fiestă de business turistic în sălile Convention Center din Los Angeles. Aici se va derula a 44-a ediţie a International Pow Wow, care reprezintă cel mai mare târg de business turistic din lume. Organizatorul, U.S. Travel Association, a anunţat că evenimentul se va exprima prin peste 70.000 de întâlniri prestabilite între peste 1.000 de organizaţii de travel din toate regiunile Statelor Unite, cu peste 1.200 de companii vânzătoare din peste 70 de ţări. Se aşteaptă ca toate acestea să genereze în viitor peste 3,5 bilioane de dolari pentru industria de călătorii americană.\r\n\r\nRoger Dow, preşedintele organizaţiei, a arătat că recent înfiinţata Corporaţie pentru Promovarea Turismului (Corporation for Travel Promotion), o alianţă naţională foarte puternică, va lansa la târg noul concept - Brand USA ce şi-a propus să stimuleze şi să încurajeze călătorii din toate părţile lumii pentru a vizita SUA. “Cu acest prilej vom inaugura campania globală de marketing.

Foarte multe informaţii în premieră sunt oferite pe www.TheBrandUSA.com.” Chiar în aceste zile Marriott International, Walt Disney Company şi Best Western International au anunţat că vor investi fiecare câte 1 milion de dolari, în această campanie, rezultat al parteneriatului public-privat. Întreaga campanie pentru Brand USA, beneficiază de un buget de peste 21 de milioane de dolari, dar acesta va creşte prin contribuţiile companiilor turistice.\r\n\r\nInternational Pow Wow de la Los Angeles are invitaţi jurnalişti şi editori de turism, peste 250, dar numărul lor va creşte în următoarele saptamâni. Ei se reunesc sub aceeaşi cupolă a Convention Center, la un târgul Media Market Place. Fireşte, Los Angeles-ul va pune la bătaie Universal Studios Hollywood, Cirque du Soleil cu un spectacol de zile mari, Kodak Theatre, locul unde se decernează anual premiile Oscar, Bulevardul starurilor cu peste 2.000 de stele, Filarmonica Walt Disney, o clădire futuristă etc. Printre românii prezenţi aici se numără şi grupul nostru editorial, pentru a 13 oară consecutiv la International Pow Wow, dar şi Olimpic International Turism, condus de George şi Mihaela Nicolescu (companie românească de travel prezentă pentru a 17 oară), lider al vânzărilor pe piaţa americană.

CAPPADOCIA – dincolo de imaginaţie\r\nPământ al frumoşilor cai, spune o legendă, pământ al mândrelor case au interpretat alţii... Toate superlativele s-ar potrivi pentru Cappadocia – centrul podişului Anatoliei. O destinaţie completă, un pol al turismului religios ortodox, un ţinut dur dar suav, inegal, spectaculos, greu de exprimat. În fine, pământul din care turcii scot azi bani din piatră seacă! Şi la propriu, şi la figurat!\r\n\r\nNu e o poveste sau o expresie de efect. Turcii chiar scot bani din piatră seacă! Turistul abia picat în podişul arid, la peste 600 km distanţă de coloratul Istanbul, se crede, cumva neliniştit, prea departe de Ankara ca să mai simtă în spate suflul civilizaţiei cu care este obişnuit. Oftează însă uşurat odată ce intră în hotel. Camerele şi restaurantele săpate în stânca albicioasă şi mai ales terasele panoramice, dichisite cu flori fac din orăşele de provincie ca Urgup sau Nevsehir locaţii perfecte pentru cel puţin o vacanţă de o săptămână în Cappadocia. 7 zile care trec prea repede, pline ca o lună, în împletirea înşelătoare a imaginaţiei cu timpul.\r\n\r\nOraşele de sub pământ\r\nRegiunea are 36 de localităţi subterane, săpate în timpul legendar al Imperiului Hitit. Şase dintre ele se pot vizita fiind amenajate ca atare. Kaymacli pare a fi cel mai mare, având 8 niveluri. Patru dintre ele sunt curăţate şi vizitabile, însă orice aventurare necesită o bună ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Capadocia-10.jpg\" "\\"OLYMPUS")
stăpânire de sine. Camerele joase, miile de uşi, ferestre rotunde, nişe, sutele de coridoare şi trepte, formează un labirint. Traseul de urmat este marcat cu săgeţi dar orice schimbare de direcţie sau abatere te poate confuza uşor. Atmosfera închisă, apăsătoare, protectoare în acelaşi timp, îţi pune imaginaţia la încercare cu gândul la sutele de ani în care oraşul a fost locuit de numeroasele populaţii ce s-au perindat prin Anatolia, ori de creştinii prigoniţi de romani. Hambare, capele, grajduri, bucătării, fântână, ventilaţie nat\r\n\r\nCu ochii vulturului\r\nCentrul regiunii este Uchisar, poate nu întâmplător cel mai înalt punct panoramic. Din „castel” – un con vulcanic brodat de locuinţe, se lansau porumbei cu mesaje către toate văile Cappadociei. Astăzi aici merită să stai mai mult de o oră. Lasă deoparte negoţurile de covoare, de ceramică, vânzătorii de suc de rodie care te îmbie cu „viagra turcească” şi priveşte... Podişul e la picioarele tale, cu ai săi dervişi zburători sau cadâne, înveşmântaţi în alb, galben şofran, nisipiu – ei sunt conurile împietrite care dau magia ţinutului. Vântul e sec în lunile reci, umed şi parfumat spre primăvară. Imaginaţia zburdă fără bariere şi fiecare se lansează în jocul interpretării: unii văd tichii de pitici, alţii ciuperci gigantice ori turnuri solitare. Ca şi Kaymacli ori Uchisar, Goreme este un punct atacat în sezon de vizitatori. Peste 30 de biserici, construite în secolele X-XII, au fost delimitate în cadrul Muzeului în aer liber Goreme. Aleile pietruite, băncile de piatră, micile terase cu vedere spre unghiuri ascunse ale sitului fac o vizită plăcută în interiorul acestui spaţiu asemănător ca şi aspect liniştit, cu interiorul unei mânăstiri. Bisericile sunt modeste ca dimensiuni, viu decorate cu fresce, iar numitorul comun al creştinismului creează sentimentul de cunoscut, de apropiere.\r\n\r\nVăile rămase fără timp\r\nÎmprejmuită dar neamenajată Valea Zelve este o sălbăticie de roşu vulcanic. În fapt sunt trei văi săpate în tuf, care se împletesc cu ascunzători, biserici, grote, şi mici chei de basm, ca într-un joc pentru cavalerii aflaţi în căutarea secretului vieţii fără de moarte. Sutele de case au fost locuite până în 1924, când erodarea accentuată i-a determinat pe localnici să se mute din cuibul de piatră. Unora li se pare stranie aşezarea, altora ca având un magnetism special. De pe vârfurile sale, privirea zboară către întinsul vărgat în culorile amiezii anatoliene, cu vinele sale albăstrii, cu unduirile uneori mătăsoase, înşelătoare, ca o fată Morgana a ţinuturilor reci.\r\n\r\nCu totul diferită este Valea Ihlara, care trebuie vizitată de dimineaţă. Canionul săpat de râul Melendiz are peste 150 metri adâncime şi din abisul său, munţii acoperiţi cu zăpadă, par mai degrabă tablouri care decorează peretele unui living generos. Există mai multe puncte de acces, amenajate cu parcări şi restaurante, coborârea dar şi urcarea fiind destul de solicitante. Sutele de trepte necesită cel puţin 30 de minute. Valea fertilă a folosit drept loc de adăpost al primilor creştini izgoniţi de romani. Pe aproape 10 kilometri bisericile cu arcade alternează cu pajişti perfecte pentru grădini şi case... săpate în piatră. Liniştea, susurul râului, copacii care aici abundă de parcă ai fi în alt pământ şi nu în Cappadocia deja cunoscută, cu toate te atrag într-o drumeţie care dureză fără a putea spune cât – căci spaţiul pare a fi rămas fără timp.\r\n\r\nÎn fiecare seară care se coboară peste podişul anatolian, arid parese doar în cărţile de geografie, revii la hotel. Exerciţiul zilei te-a epuizat dar găseşti destulă energie pentru un spectacol de dans tradiţional, o cină simplă dar gustoasă la restaurantul cu scaune şi mese de piatră. Tarabele pline de mărfuri îmbietoare te cheamă în stradă şi pui în geamantan şi o statuetă de... piatră. Cappadocia e ţinutul dincolo de imaginaţie.\r\n\r\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n\r\n

Muzeul Gucci - linia artiştilor florentini\r\n\r\nModa atrage, pasionează, inspiră, subjugă. Moda produce ambiţii, nebunii, manii. Atunci însă când un creator celebru deschide un muzeu, ceva se schimbă. Vă invităm deci la o vizită în recent deschisul Gucci Museo, de la Florenţa.\r\n\r\nLocaţia muzeului este una grăitoare, chiar în Piaţa Signoriei, într-o clădire impunătoare dar discretă, lângă muzee şi statui celebre. La parter aflăm povestea din spatele unui nume răsunător în lumea modei: Guccio Gucci, uşier la Hotelul Savoy din Londra, se întoarce, fascinat de lumea elegantă şi rafinată a Angliei, la Florenţa.

CAPPADOCIA – dincolo de imaginaţie\nPământ al frumoşilor cai, spune o legendă, pământ al mândrelor case au interpretat alţii... Toate superlativele s-ar potrivi pentru Cappadocia – centrul podişului Anatoliei. O destinaţie completă, un pol al turismului religios ortodox, un ţinut dur dar suav, inegal, spectaculos, greu de exprimat. În fine, pământul din care turcii scot azi bani din piatră seacă! Şi la propriu, şi la figurat!\n\nNu e o poveste sau o expresie de efect. Turcii chiar scot bani din piatră seacă! Turistul abia picat în podişul arid, la peste 600 km distanţă de coloratul Istanbul, se crede, cumva neliniştit, prea departe de Ankara ca să mai simtă în spate suflul civilizaţiei cu care este obişnuit. Oftează însă uşurat odată ce intră în hotel. Camerele şi restaurantele săpate în stânca albicioasă şi mai ales terasele panoramice, dichisite cu flori fac din orăşele de provincie ca Urgup sau Nevsehir locaţii perfecte pentru cel puţin o vacanţă de o săptămână în Cappadocia. 7 zile care trec prea repede, pline ca o lună, în împletirea înşelătoare a imaginaţiei cu timpul.\n\nOraşele de sub pământ\nRegiunea are 36 de localităţi subterane, săpate în timpul legendar al Imperiului Hitit. Şase dintre ele se pot vizita fiind amenajate ca atare. Kaymacli pare a fi cel mai mare, având 8 niveluri. Patru dintre ele sunt curăţate şi vizitabile, însă orice aventurare necesită o bună stăpânire de sine. Camerele joase, miile de uşi, ferestre rotunde, nişe, sutele de coridoare şi trepte, formează un labirint. Traseul de urmat este marcat cu săgeţi dar orice schimbare de direcţie sau abatere te poate confuza uşor. Atmosfera închisă, apăsătoare, protectoare în acelaşi timp, îţi pune imaginaţia la încercare cu gândul la sutele de ani în care oraşul a fost locuit de numeroasele populaţii ce s-au perindat prin Anatolia, ori de creştinii prigoniţi de romani. Hambare, capele, grajduri, bucătării, fântână, ventilaţie nat\n\nCu ochii vulturului\nCentrul regiunii este Uchisar, poate nu întâmplător cel mai înalt punct panoramic. Din „castel” – un con vulcanic brodat de locuinţe, se lansau porumbei cu mesaje către toate văile Cappadociei. Astăzi aici merită să stai mai mult de o oră. Lasă deoparte negoţurile de covoare, de ceramică, vânzătorii de suc de rodie care te îmbie cu „viagra turcească” şi priveşte... Podişul e la picioarele tale, cu ai săi dervişi zburători sau cadâne, înveşmântaţi în alb, galben şofran, nisipiu – ei sunt conurile împietrite care dau magia ţinutului. Vântul e sec în lunile reci, umed şi parfumat spre primăvară. Imaginaţia zburdă fără bariere şi fiecare se lansează în jocul interpretării: unii văd tichii de pitici, alţii ciuperci gigantice ori turnuri solitare. Ca şi Kaymacli ori Uchisar, Goreme este un punct atacat în sezon de vizitatori. Peste 30 de biserici, construite în secolele X-XII, au fost delimitate în cadrul Muzeului în aer liber Goreme. Aleile pietruite, băncile de piatră, micile terase cu vedere spre unghiuri ascunse ale sitului fac o vizită plăcută în interiorul acestui spaţiu asemănător ca şi aspect liniştit, cu interiorul unei mânăstiri. Bisericile sunt modeste ca dimensiuni, viu decorate cu fresce, iar numitorul comun al creştinismului creează sentimentul de cunoscut, de apropiere.\n\nVăile rămase fără timp\nÎmprejmuită dar neamenajată Valea Zelve este o sălbăticie de roşu vulcanic. În fapt sunt trei văi săpate în tuf, care se împletesc cu ascunzători, biserici, grote, şi mici chei de basm, ca într-un joc pentru cavalerii aflaţi în căutarea secretului vieţii fără de moarte. Sutele de case au fost locuite până în 1924, când erodarea accentuată i-a determinat pe localnici să se mute din cuibul de piatră. Unora li se pare stranie aşezarea, altora ca având un magnetism special. De pe vârfurile sale, privirea zboară către întinsul vărgat în culorile amiezii anatoliene, cu vinele sale albăstrii, cu unduirile uneori mătăsoase, înşelătoare, ca o fată Morgana a ţinuturilor reci.\n\nCu totul diferită este Valea Ihlara, care trebuie vizitată de dimineaţă. Canionul săpat de râul Melendiz are peste 150 metri adâncime şi din abisul său, munţii acoperiţi cu zăpadă, par mai degrabă tablouri care decorează peretele unui living generos. Există mai multe puncte de acces, amenajate cu parcări şi restaurante, coborârea dar şi urcarea fiind destul de solicitante. Sutele de trepte necesită cel puţin 30 de minute. Valea fertilă a folosit drept loc de adăpost al primilor creştini izgoniţi de romani. Pe aproape 10 kilometri bisericile cu arcade alternează cu pajişti perfecte pentru grădini şi case... săpate în piatră. Liniştea, susurul râului, copacii care aici abundă de parcă ai fi în alt pământ şi nu în Cappadocia deja cunoscută, cu toate te atrag într-o drumeţie care dureză fără a putea spune cât – căci spaţiul pare a fi rămas fără timp.\n\nÎn fiecare seară care se coboară peste podişul anatolian, arid parese doar în cărţile de geografie, revii la hotel. Exerciţiul zilei te-a epuizat dar găseşti destulă energie pentru un spectacol de dans tradiţional, o cină simplă dar gustoasă la restaurantul cu scaune şi mese de piatră.

Linz\r\n\r\nUna dintre cele mai importante capitale turistice ale României, Braşovul s-a înfrăţit cu oraşul Linz din Austria. Decizia a fost luată deoarece „cele două aşezări moderne sunt asemănătoare, cu o dezvoltare economică şi culturală deosebită. În urma vizitelor efectuate în Braşov am observat existenţa a numeroase puncte comune între localităţi, precum industria, proiectele culturale, educaţionale şi sociale” - a declarat viceprimarul oraşului Linz, Christiana Dolezal. Domnia sa a mai spus că parteneriatul va duce la dezvoltarea ambelor oraşe în sectoare legate de turism, sport, învăţământ universitar şi economie. Braşovul este înfrăţit cu încă 10 oraşe din întreaga lume şi are semnate protocoale de colaborare cu alte 7 aşezări urbane. De asemenea, pentru Linz, Braşovul reprezinta al 17-lea oraş cu care s-a înfrăţit.\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nAeroportul Băneasa e monument istoric\r\n\r\nClădirea principală a Aeroportului Internaţional “Aurel Vlaicu” a devenit monument istoric de categoria A (de interes naţional) potrivit unui ordin publicat în Monitorul Oficial. Aerogara a fost construită între 1947 şi 1952. Ea a fost proiectată ca o elice cu trei pale, de către arhitecţii: Cleopatra Alifanti, Mircea Alifanti, N. Bădescu, Ascanio Damian, T. Iconomu, Pompiliu Macovei şi Al. Şerbescu.\r\n\r\nPrima atestare documentară în presa vremii a Aeroportului Băneasa datează din 7 iunie 1910, când, pe “câmpul de la Băneasa” (fostul hipodrom de la Băneasa după 1920), pionierul aviaţiei româneşti Aurel Vlaicu avea primele evoluţii la mitingul aviatic organizat la acea vreme, cu avionul construit după o concepţie proprie. Însă primele zboruri în zona Băneasa au fost efectuate de Louis Bleriot, în 1909, pe terenul hipodromului particular de la Băneasa (în prezent cartierul Băneasa) - o porţiune din vechea moşie a contesei de Montesquiou. Pe 1 august 1912, Liga Aeriană Română, condusă de principele George Valentin Bibescu, înfiinţează la Băneasa o şcoală militară de pilotaj. Mai târziu, aerodromul devine aeroport, se adaugă o şcoală de pilotaj pentru civili şi Aeroclubul Regal Român. Pe 12 noiembrie 1922 a fost inaugurată prima linie aeriană intercontinentală între Europa şi Asia, pe ruta Paris - Strasbourg - Praga - Viena - Bucureşti (Băneasa)-Constantinopol. În 1930 au fost semnate convenţii cu Polonia şi Cehoslovacia, care au contribuit la dezvoltarea Aeroportului Băneasa ca aeroport internaţional.\r\n\r\nAeroportul este considerat unitate de aviaţie pe actuala pozitie geografica începând din 1921. În 1942, la Băneasa s-a construit prima pista betonată din România. Până la înfiinţarea Aeroportului Otopeni, în 1970, cel din Băneasa a fost primul şi singurul aeroport internaţional din România.\r\nMARA ANTON\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nDunărea vrea un brand propriu\r\n\r\nSpecialiştii Ministerului Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului sunt de părere că Dunărea ar avea nevoie de un brand turistic propriu, care să fie promovată distinct. El ar urma să fie realizat cu sprijin financiar european. Prioritatea a fost formulată la prima reuniune a Consiliului Director al Forumului Naţional pentru Implementarea Strategiei UE pentru Regiunea Dunării. Esenţială pentru succesul Strategiei Dunării este implicarea autorităţilor locale din vecinatatea Dunării şi încurajarea lor să depună proiecte pentru dezvoltarea infrastructurii de transport, a celei de de turism, a unor proiecte culturale şi de mediu. Strategia Dunării se dezvoltă pe patru axe prioritare, respectiv conectivitatea, protecţia mediului, creşterea prosperităţii regiunii Dunării şi îmbunătăţirea sistemului de guvernare.\r\n\r\nDupă cum se ştie, anul trecut, în luna iunie, Consiliul European a adoptat Strategia UE pentru Regiunea Dunării (SUERD), moment care a corespuns cu debutul procesului de implementare. Următorul forum va avea loc în această primăvară.\r\n\r\n

Anul trecut Spania a primit circa 56,7 milioane de turisti, în creştere cu 7,6%. Doar în ianuarie s-au îndreptat spre această ţară 2,7 milioane de străini, cu 4,6% mai mult decât în perioada similară a anului trecut. În topul preferinţelor se află Insulele Canare, Catalunia şi Madridul. “Dintre aceştia potrivit datelor oficiale, anul trecut au ajuns în vacanţe în Spania peste 112.000 de turişti români, ceea ce a marcat o creştere de 6,2%. După părerea mea cifra, desigur nu e oficială, numărul românilor care vin în ţara noastră, poate fi cel puţin dublu, pentru că o mare parte dintre aceştia sosesc şi se cazează la rude.\r\n\r\nDupă cum ştiţi există o comunitate foarte mare de români, apreciată şi respectată, care locuiesc şi lucrează în Spania, în principal în zona Valenciană şi Andaluzia” - a declarat, la Bucureşti, în timpul unei conferinţe de presă, Javier Rodriguez Manas, directorul Biroului spaniol de turism la Viena. El a mai subliniat că 10.000 dintre turiştii români au venit prin programul Senioren Travel, care se adresează turiştilor cu vârsta de peste 55 de ani. Programul s-a bucurat de succes anul trecut, dar în acest sezon el cunoaşte un regres pe piaţa românească, şi datorită renunţării statului spaniol la unele destinaţii oferite, a apreciat reprezentantul agenţiei spaniole care comercializează acest produs în ţara noastră. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Event-Spania-4.jpg\" "\\"Event")

\n\nBraşovul este frate cu... Linz\n\nUna dintre cele mai importante capitale turistice ale României, Braşovul s-a înfrăţit cu oraşul Linz din Austria. Decizia a fost luată deoarece „cele două aşezări moderne sunt asemănătoare, cu o dezvoltare economică şi culturală deosebită. În urma vizitelor efectuate în Braşov am observat existenţa a numeroase puncte comune între localităţi, precum industria, proiectele culturale, educaţionale şi sociale” - a declarat viceprimarul oraşului Linz, Christiana Dolezal. Domnia sa a mai spus că parteneriatul va duce la dezvoltarea ambelor oraşe în sectoare legate de turism, sport, învăţământ universitar şi economie. Braşovul este înfrăţit cu încă 10 oraşe din întreaga lume şi are semnate protocoale de colaborare cu alte 7 aşezări urbane.

\n\nAeroportul Băneasa e monument istoric\n\nClădirea principală a Aeroportului Internaţional “Aurel Vlaicu” a devenit monument istoric de categoria A (de interes naţional) potrivit unui ordin publicat în Monitorul Oficial. Aerogara a fost construită între 1947 şi 1952. Ea a fost proiectată ca o elice cu trei pale, de către arhitecţii: Cleopatra Alifanti, Mircea Alifanti, N. Bădescu, Ascanio Damian, T. Iconomu, Pompiliu Macovei şi Al. Şerbescu.\n\nPrima atestare documentară în presa vremii a Aeroportului Băneasa datează din 7 iunie 1910, când, pe “câmpul de la Băneasa” (fostul hipodrom de la Băneasa după 1920), pionierul aviaţiei româneşti Aurel Vlaicu avea primele evoluţii la mitingul aviatic organizat la acea vreme, cu avionul construit după o concepţie proprie. Însă primele zboruri în zona Băneasa au fost efectuate de Louis Bleriot, în 1909, pe terenul hipodromului particular de la Băneasa (în prezent cartierul Băneasa) - o porţiune din vechea moşie a contesei de Montesquiou. Pe 1 august 1912, Liga Aeriană Română, condusă de principele George Valentin Bibescu, înfiinţează la Băneasa o şcoală militară de pilotaj. Mai târziu, aerodromul devine aeroport, se adaugă o şcoală de pilotaj pentru civili şi Aeroclubul Regal Român. Pe 12 noiembrie 1922 a fost inaugurată prima linie aeriană intercontinentală între Europa şi Asia, pe ruta Paris - Strasbourg - Praga - Viena - Bucureşti (Băneasa)-Constantinopol. În 1930 au fost semnate convenţii cu Polonia şi Cehoslovacia, care au contribuit la dezvoltarea Aeroportului Băneasa ca aeroport internaţional.\n\nAeroportul este considerat unitate de aviaţie pe actuala pozitie geografica începând din 1921. În 1942, la Băneasa s-a construit prima pista betonată din România. Până la înfiinţarea Aeroportului Otopeni, în 1970, cel din Băneasa a fost primul şi singurul aeroport internaţional din România.\nMARA ANTON\n\n
\n\nDunărea vrea un brand propriu\n\nSpecialiştii Ministerului Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului sunt de părere că Dunărea ar avea nevoie de un brand turistic propriu, care să fie promovată distinct. El ar urma să fie realizat cu sprijin financiar european. Prioritatea a fost formulată la prima reuniune a Consiliului Director al Forumului Naţional pentru Implementarea Strategiei UE pentru Regiunea Dunării. Esenţială pentru succesul Strategiei Dunării este implicarea autorităţilor locale din vecinatatea Dunării şi încurajarea lor să depună proiecte pentru dezvoltarea infrastructurii de transport, a celei de de turism, a unor proiecte culturale şi de mediu. Strategia Dunării se dezvoltă pe patru axe prioritare, respectiv conectivitatea, protecţia mediului, creşterea prosperităţii regiunii Dunării şi îmbunătăţirea sistemului de guvernare.\n\nDupă cum se ştie, anul trecut, în luna iunie, Consiliul European a adoptat Strategia UE pentru Regiunea Dunării (SUERD), moment care a corespuns cu debutul procesului de implementare. Următorul forum va avea loc în această primăvară.\n\n

\r\n\r\nBraşovul este frate cu... Linz\r\n\r\nUna dintre cele mai importante capitale turistice ale României, Braşovul s-a înfrăţit cu oraşul Linz din Austria. Decizia a fost luată deoarece „cele două aşezări moderne sunt asemănătoare, cu o dezvoltare economică şi culturală deosebită. În urma vizitelor efectuate în Braşov am observat existenţa a numeroase puncte comune între localităţi, precum industria, proiectele culturale, educaţionale şi sociale” - a declarat viceprimarul oraşului Linz, Christiana Dolezal. Domnia sa a mai spus că parteneriatul va duce la dezvoltarea ambelor oraşe în sectoare legate de turism, sport, învăţământ universitar şi economie. Braşovul este înfrăţit cu încă 10 oraşe din întreaga lume şi are semnate protocoale de colaborare cu alte 7 aşezări urbane. De asemenea, pentru Linz, Braşovul reprezinta al 17-lea oraş cu care s-a înfrăţit.\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nAeroportul Băneasa e monument istoric\r\n\r\nClădirea principală a Aeroportului Internaţional “Aurel Vlaicu” a devenit monument istoric de categoria A (de interes naţional) potrivit unui ordin publicat în Monitorul Oficial. Aerogara a fost construită între 1947 şi 1952. Ea a fost proiectată ca o elice cu trei pale, de către arhitecţii: Cleopatra Alifanti, Mircea Alifanti, N. Bădescu, Ascanio Damian, T. Iconomu, Pompiliu Macovei şi Al. Şerbescu.\r\n\r\nPrima atestare documentară în presa vremii a Aeroportului Băneasa datează din 7 iunie 1910, când, pe “câmpul de la Băneasa” (fostul hipodrom de la Băneasa după 1920), pionierul aviaţiei româneşti Aurel Vlaicu avea primele evoluţii la mitingul aviatic organizat la acea vreme, cu avionul construit după o concepţie proprie. Însă primele zboruri în zona Băneasa au fost efectuate de Louis Bleriot, în 1909, pe terenul hipodromului particular de la Băneasa (în prezent cartierul Băneasa) - o porţiune din vechea moşie a contesei de Montesquiou. Pe 1 august 1912, Liga Aeriană Română, condusă de principele George Valentin Bibescu, înfiinţează la Băneasa o şcoală militară de pilotaj. Mai târziu, aerodromul devine aeroport, se adaugă o şcoală de pilotaj pentru civili şi Aeroclubul Regal Român. Pe 12 noiembrie 1922 a fost inaugurată prima linie aeriană intercontinentală între Europa şi Asia, pe ruta Paris - Strasbourg - Praga - Viena - Bucureşti (Băneasa)-Constantinopol. În 1930 au fost semnate convenţii cu Polonia şi Cehoslovacia, care au contribuit la dezvoltarea Aeroportului Băneasa ca aeroport internaţional.\r\n\r\nAeroportul este considerat unitate de aviaţie pe actuala pozitie geografica începând din 1921. În 1942, la Băneasa s-a construit prima pista betonată din România. Până la înfiinţarea Aeroportului Otopeni, în 1970, cel din Băneasa a fost primul şi singurul aeroport internaţional din România.\r\nMARA ANTON\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nDunărea vrea un brand propriu\r\n\r\nSpecialiştii Ministerului Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului sunt de părere că Dunărea ar avea nevoie de un brand turistic propriu, care să fie promovată distinct. El ar urma să fie realizat cu sprijin financiar european. Prioritatea a fost formulată la prima reuniune a Consiliului Director al Forumului Naţional pentru Implementarea Strategiei UE pentru Regiunea Dunării. Esenţială pentru succesul Strategiei Dunării este implicarea autorităţilor locale din vecinatatea Dunării şi încurajarea lor să depună proiecte pentru dezvoltarea infrastructurii de transport, a celei de de turism, a unor proiecte culturale şi de mediu. Strategia Dunării se dezvoltă pe patru axe prioritare, respectiv conectivitatea, protecţia mediului, creşterea prosperităţii regiunii Dunării şi îmbunătăţirea sistemului de guvernare.\r\n\r\nDupă cum se ştie, anul trecut, în luna iunie, Consiliul European a adoptat Strategia UE pentru Regiunea Dunării (SUERD), moment care a corespuns cu debutul procesului de implementare. Următorul forum va avea loc în această primăvară.\r\n\r\n

Standul CNAB a produs un impact deosebit atrăgând atenţia asupra noii oferte a Aeroportului din Băneasa pentru aviaţia de business.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nÎn Spania statistica dansează... Flamenco \r\n\r\n

Restaurarea Hotelului Cişmigiu a intrat în linie dreaptă. Conform proprietarilor – compania Hercesa -, lucrările vor fi finalizate în 2012, când se vor împlini şi o sută de ani de la ridicarea construcţiei. Hotelul s-a degradat de-a lungul ultimelor decenii, iar demararea refacerii şi restaurării clădirii a avut loc în 2009, după ce a fost achiziţionată de către dezvoltatorul spaniol.

BRANDURI ÎN MIŞCARE
\r\nIBIS face... pachete\r\nExasperaţi, probabil, de inerţia agenţiilor de turism pe segmentul atragerii vizitatorilor străini spre Bucureşti, reprezentanţii reţelei Ibis România (brand al grupului Accor) au lansat propriile produse tip city-break în Capitală. Conform lui Călin Ile, directorul hotelului Ibis - Gara de Nord, primul pachet - Ibis Bucharest Nightlife -, e oferit la un tarif de 76 de euro de persoană. El include două nopţi de cazare în timpul weekend-ului, cu mic dejun, şi un tur al barurilor şi cluburilor din Bucureşti, cu băuturi incluse în patru dintre localurile vizitate. Al doilea pachet - Ibis Promenadă pe Calea Victoriei -, este oferit la acelaşi preţ şi include două nopţi de cazare şi un tur, cu ghid însoţitor, pe Calea Victoriei, în care sunt prezentate clădirile istorice. Ultimul pachet - Ibis Redescoperă Muzeul Antipa - costă 62 de euro de persoană. Copiii au reduceri considerabile. El include două nopţi de cazare cu mic dejun, welcome drink şi o vizită la muzeul Grigore Antipa, redeschis de curând într-o nouă concepţie expoziţională.
\r\nTENDINŢE
\r\nMICE – o piaţă de peste 520 de milioane de euro
\r\n2011 a consemnat creşteri în sectorul MICE de peste 10%, comparativ cu anul precedent. Motorul business-turismului l-a reprezentat Bucureştiul şi câteva mari oraşe ale ţării. Referindu-se la aceste tendinţe Paul Mărăşoiu, liderul companiei de consultanţă hotelieră Peacock Hotels, spune că gradul de ocupare a hotelurilor de 4 stele din Bucureşti va ajunge la 60% în acest an, apropiat de nivelul de 63% consemnat în 2008. Dar tarifele medii au fost cu aproximativ 20% mai mici în 2011 faţă de 2008, când erau de 90 de euro. Un alt lucru important: 63% din totalul sosirilor înregistrate în hotelurile din ţară sunt pentru turismul de business, procent care a urcat la 75% din total în centrele urbane mari şi la 93% în Bucureşti ( faţă de 92% în 2008). Mărăşoiu mai estimează că nivelul încasărilor din turismul de afaceri şi evenimente va atinge în acest an o valoare de circa 520 de milioane de euro, ponderea cea mai importantă aparţinând clienţilor corporate. Nivelul este însă cu aproximativ 9% sub cel al anului 2008 ca urmare a scăderii bugetelor disponibile şi a tarifului mediu net, mai redus. Evoluţia segmentului de business travel este superioară celui de leisure, unde piaţa s-a comprimat pe fondul crizei cu peste 20%. La rândul său Lucian Boronea, directorul general al Accent Travel&Events, speră ca vânzarile pe segmentul MICE ale companiei să se majoreze cu peste 15% în acest an. Segmentul MICE reprezintă aproximativ 18% din totalul cifrei de afaceri a Accent Travel&Events.
\r\nMai mulţi turişti, mai puţine încasări\r\n\r\nMohammad Murad, preşedintele Federaţiei Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc, (FPTR) apreciază că jumătate dintre hotelurile de pe litoral sunt scoase la vânzare de către proprietari, iar peste 25% dintre ele au probleme cu rambursarea creditelor către bănci. Peste 10 se află deja în executare. Investiţia într-un hotel pe litoral se recuperează în 15-20 de ani, datorită perioadei mari de amortizare şi a pierderilor pe care le au investitorii care au construit doar cu credite bancare. Totodată, preşedintele FPTR a adăugat că hotelurile româneşti plătesc printre cele mai multe taxe din Europa, care ajung la circa 50% din totalul veniturilor. El a mai afirmat că anul trecut numărul turiştilor pe litoral a crescut cu 10%, însă durata sejurului a fost mai mică iar aceştia au cheltuit mai puţin, încasările hotelierilor scăzând cu 10-15%. Potrivit datelor Ministerului Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului în judetul Constanţa există 994 de structuri de cazare clasificate, dintre care 352 sunt hoteluri.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU & ANGELA SIMION','Hotel Tourism & Leisure Investment Conference 24-26 aprilie 2012 Bucuresti-Industrie hoteliera nr.96','','publish','open','open','','hotel-tourism-leisure-investment-conference-24-26-aprilie-2012-bucuresti','','','2012-04-12 01:31:17','2012-04-11 23:31:17','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=1164',0,'post','',0),(1165,1,'2012-04-12 01:26:06','2012-04-11 23:26:06','','Hotel Tourism & Leisure Investment Conference 24-26 aprilie 2012 Bucuresti','','inherit','open','open','','1164-revision','','','2012-04-12 01:26:06','2012-04-11 23:26:06','',1164,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2012/04/12/1164-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(1166,1,'2012-04-12 01:28:25','2012-04-11 23:28:25','','Banner 170x70 Conferinta hotel','','inherit','open','open','','banner-170x70-conferinta-hotel','','','2012-04-12 01:28:25','2012-04-11 23:28:25','',1164,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Banner-170x70-Conferinta-hotel.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1167,1,'2012-04-12 01:30:41','2012-04-11 23:30:41','Numeroase personalităţi se vor întâlni la\nHotel Tourism & Leisure Investment Conference \n\nÎntre 24 – 26 aprilie, la JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel, va avea loc cea de-a V-a editie a Hotel Tourism & Leisure Investment Conference, unul dintre cele mai importante evenimente dedicat industriei hoteliere si de turism din Romania.

Potrivit datelor Ministerului Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului în judetul Constanţa există 994 de structuri de cazare clasificate, dintre care 352 sunt hoteluri.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU & ANGELA SIMION','Hotel Tourism & Leisure Investment Conference 24-26 aprilie 2012 Bucuresti','','inherit','open','open','','1164-revision-2','','','2012-04-12 01:27:22','2012-04-11 23:27:22','',1164,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2012/04/12/1164-revision-2/',0,'revision','',0),(1173,1,'2012-04-12 01:30:42','2012-04-11 23:30:42','Numeroase personalităţi se vor întâlni la\r\nHotel Tourism & Leisure Investment Conference \r\n\r\nÎntre 24 – 26 aprilie, la JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel, va avea loc cea de-a V-a editie a Hotel Tourism & Leisure Investment Conference, unul dintre cele mai importante evenimente dedicat industriei hoteliere si de turism din Romania.

Băile Felix dau în continuare semnale pozitive pentru turismul balnear. Asul din mânecă pare să aparţină turismului de afaceri şi evenimente. Cum va răspunde piaţa turistică? Vom urmări!\r\n
INVESTIŢII
\r\n“Cişmigiu” va fi gata în 2012
\r\nRestaurarea Hotelului Cişmigiu a intrat în linie dreaptă. Conform proprietarilor – compania Hercesa -, lucrările vor fi finalizate în 2012, când se vor împlini şi o sută de ani de la ridicarea construcţiei. Hotelul s-a degradat de-a lungul ultimelor decenii, iar demararea refacerii şi restaurării clădirii a avut loc în 2009, după ce a fost achiziţionată de către dezvoltatorul spaniol. Lucrările au fost amânate pentru o perioadă din cauza structurii ce a necesitat o demolare parţială şi nu o renovare, cum se calculase iniţial. Celebra Berărie Gambrinus, care era situată în vecinătatea intrării în hotel, nu va mai fi redeschisă, iar în locul ei vor fi amenajate câteva spaţii comerciale pentru mărci de lux. Păcat. Mai dispare un loc de tradiţie din istoria vechiului Bucureşti. La mezanin şi primul etaj vor fi spaţii pentru birouri. De asemenea, o parte a imobilului va fi cedată Institutului Cervantes.
BRANDURI ÎN MIŞCARE
\r\nIBIS face... pachete\r\nExasperaţi, probabil, de inerţia agenţiilor de turism pe segmentul atragerii vizitatorilor străini spre Bucureşti, reprezentanţii reţelei Ibis România (brand al grupului Accor) au lansat propriile produse tip city-break în Capitală. Conform lui Călin Ile, directorul hotelului Ibis - Gara de Nord, primul pachet - Ibis Bucharest Nightlife -, e oferit la un tarif de 76 de euro de persoană. El include două nopţi de cazare în timpul weekend-ului, cu mic dejun, şi un tur al barurilor şi cluburilor din Bucureşti, cu băuturi incluse în patru dintre localurile vizitate. Al doilea pachet - Ibis Promenadă pe Calea Victoriei -, este oferit la acelaşi preţ şi include două nopţi de cazare şi un tur, cu ghid însoţitor, pe Calea Victoriei, în care sunt prezentate clădirile istorice. Ultimul pachet - Ibis Redescoperă Muzeul Antipa - costă 62 de euro de persoană. Copiii au reduceri considerabile. El include două nopţi de cazare cu mic dejun, welcome drink şi o vizită la muzeul Grigore Antipa, redeschis de curând într-o nouă concepţie expoziţională.
\r\nTENDINŢE
\r\nMICE – o piaţă de peste 520 de milioane de euro
\r\n2011 a consemnat creşteri în sectorul MICE de peste 10%, comparativ cu anul precedent. Motorul business-turismului l-a reprezentat Bucureştiul şi câteva mari oraşe ale ţării. Referindu-se la aceste tendinţe Paul Mărăşoiu, liderul companiei de consultanţă hotelieră Peacock Hotels, spune că gradul de ocupare a hotelurilor de 4 stele din Bucureşti va ajunge la 60% în acest an, apropiat de nivelul de 63% consemnat în 2008. Dar tarifele medii au fost cu aproximativ 20% mai mici în 2011 faţă de 2008, când erau de 90 de euro. Un alt lucru important: 63% din totalul sosirilor înregistrate în hotelurile din ţară sunt pentru turismul de business, procent care a urcat la 75% din total în centrele urbane mari şi la 93% în Bucureşti ( faţă de 92% în 2008). Mărăşoiu mai estimează că nivelul încasărilor din turismul de afaceri şi evenimente va atinge în acest an o valoare de circa 520 de milioane de euro, ponderea cea mai importantă aparţinând clienţilor corporate. Nivelul este însă cu aproximativ 9% sub cel al anului 2008 ca urmare a scăderii bugetelor disponibile şi a tarifului mediu net, mai redus. Evoluţia segmentului de business travel este superioară celui de leisure, unde piaţa s-a comprimat pe fondul crizei cu peste 20%. La rândul său Lucian Boronea, directorul general al Accent Travel&Events, speră ca vânzarile pe segmentul MICE ale companiei să se majoreze cu peste 15% în acest an. Segmentul MICE reprezintă aproximativ 18% din totalul cifrei de afaceri a Accent Travel&Events.
\r\nMai mulţi turişti, mai puţine încasări\r\n\r\nMohammad Murad, preşedintele Federaţiei Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc, (FPTR) apreciază că jumătate dintre hotelurile de pe litoral sunt scoase la vânzare de către proprietari, iar peste 25% dintre ele au probleme cu rambursarea creditelor către bănci. Peste 10 se află deja în executare. Investiţia într-un hotel pe litoral se recuperează în 15-20 de ani, datorită perioadei mari de amortizare şi a pierderilor pe care le au investitorii care au construit doar cu credite bancare. Totodată, preşedintele FPTR a adăugat că hotelurile româneşti plătesc printre cele mai multe taxe din Europa, care ajung la circa 50% din totalul veniturilor. El a mai afirmat că anul trecut numărul turiştilor pe litoral a crescut cu 10%, însă durata sejurului a fost mai mică iar aceştia au cheltuit mai puţin, încasările hotelierilor scăzând cu 10-15%.

At the beginning of March took place, in the Palace of Parliament, the 8th edition of the Viennese Ball. The event, organized by JW Marriott, had as a patron Dr. Michael Häupl, the mayor of Vienna. The ball has been once again a charitable action for the benefit of United Way Romania.\r\nXXX Porecki, general director of JW Marriott said: “Vienna Ball, organized by Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel, is an event that honors us and represents us in the same time. It is a pleasure to bring the elegance of famous Viennese balls in Bucharest, Vienna Ball being the only event in Romania that reconstructs this atmosphere. As in previous years we had about 950 guests that have enjoyed this unique evening.” The Schönbrunn Palace Orchestra, led by Russel McGregor, opened the evening. One of the exquisite moments was marked by the elegant presentation of the 80 beginners dace couples. They were followed by young dancers of The Ballet School of the Romanian State Opera, coordinated by Magda Rovinescu. The Austrians Elisabeth Bauer and Sebastian Huppmann enchanted with opera interpretations, while Horia Brenciu and his jazz band added some modern rhythms to the floor.

Băneasa Airport is historical monument\r\n\r\nThe main building of the International “Aurel Vlaicu” Airport in Bucharest was declared historical monument of national interest. The place had been built between 1947 – 1952, having an airscrew shape, by the architects Cleopatra Alifanti, Mircea Alifanti, N. Bădescu, Ascanio Damian, T. Iconomu, Pompiliu Macovei and Al. Şerbescu.\r\n\r\nThe first stories about the place appear in 1910, when, on the “Băneasa fields” the pioneer of Romanian aviation, Aurel Vlaicu, was making demonstrations with a plane that he had conceived. The first flights in the area where carried by Louis Bleriot, in 1909, using for landing and takeoff lands belonging to the domains of the Montesquieu countess. November 12, 1922, the first intercontinental flight, Europe-Asia, was operated, having stops in Paris - Strasbourg - Prague -Vienna - Bucharest (Băneasa) – Constantinople. Baneasa has been the first and only international airport in Romania until the opening, in 1970, of the Otopeni Airport in Bucharest.

Christian Tour launched Senior Voyage
Christian Tour, the largest Romanian charter tour operator created Senior Voyage. This is the first Romanian brand dedicated to passengers over 55, which wish to spend their holiday time in Europe. Cristian Pandel, manager of the agency, considers that the expansion on the external markets is firstly supporting its position in Romania: „We have developed following the principle: a large volume of tourists brings after it an even larger one. You buy more and more rooms, tickets; you get greater discounts from hotels, carriers, local suppliers, etc. Last year we have registered a total of 100.000 tourists and a sales volume of 30.000.000 euro. We can offer great prices on all destinations that we operate and we were determined to expand our agency in Europe, through Pegas Holidays. In 2011 we have opened four new offices, in Bulgaria and Turkey.”

Braşovul and Linz in brotherhood
\r\nThe city of Braşov, one of the capitals of Romanian tourism, is now one of the 17 „brother” cities of Linz (Austria). The decizion came due to the fact that „the two cities are very much alike, modern, facing an interesting economic and cultural development” – said vicemayor of Linz, Christiana Dolezal. He also commented to have noticed, during his visits, several common aspects such as industry, cultural, educational and social projects. The partnership will make the two cities collaborate in sectors such as tourism, sports, university. Brasov has other 10 “brother” cities in the whole world, and also seven other similar collaboration projects.

De mai bine de două decenii o parte din lumea turismului se zbate să facă export turistic. Unanim recunoscut de către specialişti ori nespecialişti, exportul turistic, adică incomingul, că despre el este vorba, continuă să fie tratat cu un dezinteres amnezic de către guvernările stabile ori perisabile.\r\n\r\nDin când în când aspectul e recunoscut declarativ, mai ales când Banca Naţională arată că şi raportul existent în turism între import şi export, dezavantajează încasările din turismul autohton. În fapt turismul nu vinde la export nici cherestea, nici petrol, nici produse chimice ori automobile.\r\n\r\nCi o resursă inepuizabilă, visele! Am putea afirma că... voinţa politică ar trebui să se exprime net în favoarea industriei, mai ales că dă bine şi sub aspectul conceptelor ecologice, naturale, a serviciilor curate, îmbibate de cultură şi istorie. Unul dintre liderii incomingului românesc, reaminesc cu plăcere de Gheorghe Fodoreanu, bate la timpanul ministerelor, de ani de zile, de-a surda, pentru a convinge că prin exportul turistic se asigură locuri de muncă, salarii, taxe, servicii plătite, impozite cu duiumul, care rămân în ţară şi umflă burta bugetului naţional.\r\n\r\nDeşi nu e greu de înţeles mecanismul economic, politicienii se fac că plouă atunci când vine vorba de taxarea cu 0% TVA a exportului turistic. E şocant să treci de la 24% la 0. Nu e vorba de o subvenţie de stat, nici de o facilitate specială ci de reîntoarcere la o... normalitate. De care beneficiază toţi ceilalţi exportatori români. Aflu că noul ministru al turismului, Cristian Petrescu, vrea să propună Ministerului Finanţelor ca România să aplice 0 TVA cel puţin pentru cazarea turiştilor străini, măsură care va duce, fără îndoială, la scăderea tarifelor şi la creşterea numărului de turişti.\r\n\r\nDesigur ar fi ideal să nu mai existe TVA la incoming, pentru că, spune demnitarul este o neîntelegere legislativa la mijloc, care durează de mult timp şi trebuie reparată. În prezent, TVA pentru serviciile de incoming este de 9% pentru hoteluri şi 24% pentru agenţiile de turism. Iar aici se vede clar o altă discriminare economică şi fiscală. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Coperta-96.jpg\" "\\"Coperta")
\r\n\r\nCu foamea în gât după strâns taxe cât mai multe şi mari, ăsta-i statul fiscal, este greu de crezut că legislativul va accepta propunerea, aşa dintr-o dată.

\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/business-3.jpg\" "\\"business")
Aşa cum observăm la orice târg internaţional de turism, zona ocupată de tehnologia online devine din ce în ce mai mare. Apar tot mai multe agenţii online, tehnologii care optimizează marketingul şi vânzările online, platforme de distribuţie. Printre acestea se regăsesc şi sisteme de tip “Channel Manager” care integreaza sistemele de inventory ale hotelului cu agenţii de vânzari online, sincronizând preţurile şi disponibilitatea hotelurilor pe cele mai mari sisteme de rezervări online. De curând în România, s-a lansat primul channel manager: YieldPlanet. YieldPlanet este un produs al GTH Solutions, care activează în piaţă de două decenii, cu experienţe combinate în hotelărie şi IT, oferind soluţii globale de călătorie şi de hotel foarte atractive. Astfel compania a urcat în topul celor mai performante şi rapide creşteri din lume în domeniul tehnologiilor hoteliere de furnizare şi rezervare de camere.
- Cum s-a poziţionat YieldPlanet în România?
\r\n- YieldPlanet se adresează hotelierilor deschişi spre distribuţia online a produsului lor – adică acelor hoteluri care au încheiate contracte cu agenţi de vânzări online (OTA – online travel agents). Principiul pe care se bazează acest channel manager este cât se poate de simplu: în loc să actualizezi planuri tarifare, oferte speciale, alocări de cameră şi disponibilităţi în extranetul fiecărui OTA cu care lucrezi, faci această muncă o singură dată, în interfaţa oferită de YP şi cu un singur click informaţiile se transmit tuturor partenerilor tăi online. YP este un produs pe care hotelurile şi-l pot permite, şi oferă condiţii contractuale atractive potenţialilor clienţi – (testare live gratuită, posibilitatea de a implementa gratuit un motor de rezervare pe site-ul hotelului, suport tehnic 24/24 în limba română etc). Prin implementarea propriului sistem de rezervări online pe website-ul hotelului clienţii pot rezerva o cameră fără să părăsească site-ul hotelului, iar hotelul îşi poate gestiona mai eficient baza de clienţi fideli.
\r\n- Ce îşi propune să aducă nou, prin soluţiile integratoare, acest portal de rezervări?
\r\n- As vrea să precizez că noi oferim soluţiii de optimizare a distribuţiei către partenerii online. YP nu înlocuieşte contractele bilaterale ale părţilor (hotel/agenţie) şi nu este un portal de rezervări ci optimizează distribuţia către aceştia (OTA). Pentru o mai uşoară înţelegere, voi da exemplul unui hotel care are doar 4 revânzători online. Cu siguranţă, cineva de la vânzări, revenue management sau front office (în funcţie de organizarea fiecăruia) va trebui să intre zilnic în extranetul fiecărui OTA pentru a actualiza disponibilităţile de cameră şi/sau să modifice, să coreleze planurile tarifare cu gradul de ocupare al hotelului la un anumit moment.
\r\nPresupunând că hotelul are 5 tipuri de camere, 4 tipuri de planuri tarifare şi doreşte să încarce şi două oferte speciale, vă puteţi imagina câte operaţiuni trebuie făcute în fiecare din cele 4 sisteme cu care lucrează. Utilizând YP totul se simplifică, la munca într-un extranet care apoi sincronizează preţurile şi disponibilitatea hotelului în toate sistemele partenere. Persoana care lucrează e degrevată de o sarcină monotonă şi dacă e vorba de un tip creativ, ea se poate implica şi poate face o muncă de calitate, îndreptându-se spre vânzări proactive.\r\n- Ce noi aspecte de management comercial şi relaţional promovează YieldPlanet şi ce aduce nou un “channel manager” (CM) ?
\r\n- Un CM dă posibilitatea unui hotel să se “deschidă” şi să exploreze pieţe noi. Încheind contracte cu tot mai mulţi OTA expunerea pe care o câştigă hotelul este evidentă. YP ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Corina-Boronea.jpg\" "\\"Corina")
optimizează distribuţia şi hotelul poate să acţioneze diferenţiat. Distribuţia în general e ca o stradă cu două sensuri – unul de la hotel spre client, iar altul de la client la hotel (când clientul vine singur la hotel); distribuţia este simplă ca şi principiu, dar realizarea unui management al distribuţiei presupune alocarea de resurse umane şi material în aşa fel încât să nu cazi în capcana unui mare distribuitor iar apoi să fii obligat să joci după regulile lui. Lucrând cu un număr tot mai mare de distribuitori hotelul îşi reduce riscul dependenţei de un partener sau altul. Prin integrarea unui CM în distribuţie hotelul are acces la nenumărate pieţe şi are mijloace reale de negociere cu fiecare din parteneri. În plus, YP e pe punctul să finalizeze integrarea cu PMS-ul Medalion care în România are aproximativ 200 de clienţi – ceea ce va duce la o şi mai bună optimizare a comunicării de la hotel către client (prin OTA) şi înapoi către hotel direct în PMS.
- După cum s-a anunţat YieldPlanet.com a semnat un parteneriat cu Agoda.com, un important site de rezervări hoteliere din Asia, membru al priceline.com Inc. Ce oportunităţi de afaceri se deschid prin aceast mariaj electronic şi tehnologic?
\r\n- YP ofera hotelurilor (prin includerea AGODA în lista de OTA care sunt integraţi) acces la o piaţă cu o dinamică uluitoare. Oportunităţile sunt de ambele părţi – pentru hoteluri se lărgeşte încă odată aria de distribuţie, iar YP are un produs mai bun. La nivel de integrare de OTA, lista suportată de YP creşte de la lună la lună, în prezent s-a ajuns la 82 de sisteme.
\r\n- Puteţi cuantifica aderenţa industriei hoteliere româneşti la noul produs integrat pe care-l promovaţi?
\r\n- Industria hotelieră trebuie abordată cu răbdare. Mai întâi vom explica hotelierilor că trebuie să se deschidă pe cât mai multe pieţe, prin încheierea de cât mai multe contracte cu agenţii online de pe mapamond. Abia atunci vor avea acces la clienţi pe care nu ar fi avut cum să îi “prindă”. Şi care le vor aduce venituri ce vor permite diferenţa între a fi profitabil şi a trăi la limita de break-even. Există o rezistenţă la nou… ca în orice domeniu. Ne-am întâlnit cu diverse opinii – am contracte destule (online si offline) şi nu mai am nevoie de altceva – deşi istoricul gradului de ocupare arată că mai este loc, dar am întâlnit şi persoane la nivel de top, care şi-au convocat specialiştii din sales şi revenue management şi le-au urmat recomandările (atunci când au înţeles beneficiile YP). YP permite integrarea nu doar cu portalurile celebre Expedia, Agoda, hotel.de, HRS Booking.com etc, dar şi cu tour-operatorii români sau locali care au portaluri on-line. Prin biroul din Bucureşti, Yield Planet RO, produsul se distribuie pe pieţele din România, Moldova şi Bulgaria. Faţă de produsele concurente, YieldPlanet este singurul care şi-a deschis birou propriu de vânzări în RO, dublat de un birou care se ocupă exclusiv de implementări/setări şi help desk în limba română. Cum nu putem să ne opunem trendului internaţional, online-ul va deveni tot mai important în ţara noastră aşa cum s-a întâmplat peste tot în lume. Clienţii (şi tot mai mult şi în Romania) caută informaţii online, cumpără online, fac review-uri şi recomandări online… Hotelurile vor avea nevoie de un CM pentru a fi prezente pe pieţe internaţionale şi pentru a nu refuza un anumit segment de cerere – online. În prezent, Yield Planet are peste 400 de hoteluri partenere printre care se numără Accor, Intercontinental Hotels, Choice/Quality Hotels, pe lângă alte lanţuri sau unităţi locale în Austria, Germania, Spania, Marea Britanie, Polonia, Canada, ceea ce demonstrează aprecierea de care se bucură acest produs.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n| Pentru alte informaţii contactaţi-ne!\r\nCorina Boronea + 40 744 318907; Daniel Dobriţa +40 723 245843\r\nwww.yieldplanet.com, info@yieldplanet.ro | \r\n

Andaluzia călătoriilor de suflet
\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/carte-andaluzia.jpg\" "\\"carte")
Plăcută, informativă şi utilă, „Andaluzia” Gabrielei Căluţiu Sonnenberg este o lucrare care se situează undeva între un ghid turistic şi o carte de călătorii. Autoarea a rămas surprinsă, şi ca turist, de frumuseţea complexă a sudului Spaniei, revenind în vacanţe şi terminând prin a se şi stabili aici. În secţiunea „Paso a paso” ea îşi notează uimirea şi sentimentele vizitând Sevilla, Cordoba, Granada, faimoasele sate albe („pueblos blancos”) ale Andaluziei dar şi Costa del Sol ori Gibraltarul.\r\nPartea a doua a cărţii „Poco a poco” vine cu sintezele unor aspecte care i s-au părut de amintit, pentru a înţelege mai bine destinaţia ca atare şi povestea din spatele imaginilor. Obişnuinţa spaniolilor de a lua un fel de mic dejun târziu dar şi plăcerea siestei, stau laolaltă cu descrierea pieţelor ambulante sau a obiceiurilor locale de Paşte. Poveştile culturilor de măslini, a sherry-ului (de fapt vinul Jerez) dar şi a cântăreţilor şi dansatorilor de flamenco, a toreadorilor şi imigranţilor, conturează o Andaluzie originală, calmă, profundă, care se dezvăluie celui ce are timp şi dorinţă de a o cunoaşte. Cartea a fost apărut la Editura Anamarol.
\r\n\r\n
![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/ghid-Delta.jpg\" "\\"ghid")
Prima parte a ghidului este dedicată geografiei şi ecosistemului Deltei, un pământ în formare de 16.000 de ani. Consistentă şi cu date folositoare atât vizitatorului cât şi agenţiilor este însă secţiunea generoasă dedicată turismului în rezervaţie. Obiective puţin cunoscute în general precum cetăţile (Enisala, Dinogeţia, Argamum etc.) ori muzeele din zonă (Muzeul de artă orientală din Babadag sau Casa pescarului din Mahmudia) sunt descrise, la fel ca şi cele 24 de trasee turistice alcătuite şi permise de către Administraţia rezervaţiei. Dintre acestea 15 se referă la croaziere asigurate de serviciile navale ale Deltei iar 9 se pot efectua pe jos, cu bicicletele, cu căruţele sau cu maşini de teren. Ghidul publicat - de Administraţia Rezervaţiei Biosferei Delta Dunării - a fost finanţat în cadrul proiectului european Danube Parks, Delta fiind una din cele 12 arii de interes de pe întregul curs al fluviului.\r\n\r\n\r\n

Se întâmplă rar ca în lumea agitată a agenţiilor de turism directorii sau managerii să îşi găsească timpul necesar pentru a scrie o carte. Mihai Pastiea a simţit că a munci în acest domeniu aduce cantităţi mari de experienţe variate, pe care oamenii din afara industriei, rareori le percep. Astfel s-a hotărât să aştearnă în scris câteva din experienţele sale de ghid şi în acelaşi timp director de agenţie.

\r\nPlăcută, informativă şi utilă, „Andaluzia” Gabrielei Căluţiu Sonnenberg este o lucrare care se situează undeva între un ghid turistic şi o carte de călătorii. Autoarea a rămas surprinsă, şi ca turist, de frumuseţea complexă a sudului Spaniei, revenind în vacanţe şi terminând prin a se şi stabili aici. În secţiunea „Paso a paso” ea îşi notează uimirea şi sentimentele vizitând Sevilla, Cordoba, Granada, faimoasele sate albe („pueblos blancos”) ale Andaluziei dar şi Costa del Sol ori Gibraltarul.\r\nPartea a doua a cărţii „Poco a poco” vine cu sintezele unor aspecte care i s-au părut de amintit, pentru a înţelege mai bine destinaţia ca atare şi povestea din spatele imaginilor. Obişnuinţa spaniolilor de a lua un fel de mic dejun târziu dar şi plăcerea siestei, stau laolaltă cu descrierea pieţelor ambulante sau a obiceiurilor locale de Paşte. Poveştile culturilor de măslini, a sherry-ului (de fapt vinul Jerez) dar şi a cântăreţilor şi dansatorilor de flamenco, a toreadorilor şi imigranţilor, conturează o Andaluzie originală, calmă, profundă, care se dezvăluie celui ce are timp şi dorinţă de a o cunoaşte. Cartea a fost apărut la Editura Anamarol.
\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nPrima parte a ghidului este dedicată geografiei şi ecosistemului Deltei, un pământ în formare de 16.000 de ani. Consistentă şi cu date folositoare atât vizitatorului cât şi agenţiilor este însă secţiunea generoasă dedicată turismului în rezervaţie. Obiective puţin cunoscute în general precum cetăţile (Enisala, Dinogeţia, Argamum etc.) ori muzeele din zonă (Muzeul de artă orientală din Babadag sau Casa pescarului din Mahmudia) sunt descrise, la fel ca şi cele 24 de trasee turistice alcătuite şi permise de către Administraţia rezervaţiei. Dintre acestea 15 se referă la croaziere asigurate de serviciile navale ale Deltei iar 9 se pot efectua pe jos, cu bicicletele, cu căruţele sau cu maşini de teren. Ghidul publicat - de Administraţia Rezervaţiei Biosferei Delta Dunării - a fost finanţat în cadrul proiectului european Danube Parks, Delta fiind una din cele 12 arii de interes de pe întregul curs al fluviului.\r\n
„Pe aripile gândului” unui ghid
\r\nSe întâmplă rar ca în lumea agitată a agenţiilor de turism directorii sau managerii să îşi găsească timpul necesar pentru a scrie o carte. Mihai Pastiea a simţit că a munci în acest domeniu aduce cantităţi mari de experienţe variate, pe care oamenii din afara industriei, rareori le percep. Astfel s-a hotărât să aştearnă în scris câteva din experienţele sale de ghid şi în acelaşi timp director de agenţie.\r\n\r\nCele două volume apărute la Editura Sigma se numesc „Pe aripile gândului” şi „Gânduri haihui”. Ele preumblă cititorul prin lumea ţărilor scandinave, prin centrul Europei sau prin sudul pasional al Italiei ori Spaniei. Se descriu lejer şi cu note de amuzament circuite, tipologii de turişti dar şi probleme legate de programe foarte încărcate. Deşi autorul exagerează uneori latura senzuală a personajului principal, ghidul Matei Paşca, volumele merită cu siguranţă parcurse, fiind o lectură relaxantă de vacanţă ori de pregătire în unele dintre tainele meseriei de ghid. O experienţă editorială plină de inedit.

Parteneriat pentru medalii olimpice
\r\nTAROM şi Comitetul Olimpic Sportiv Român (COSR) au semnat un parteneriat în perspectiva Jocurilor Olimpice 2012, care se vor desfăşura la Londra, în perioada 27 iulie - 12 august.

Ca o recunoaştere în plus a perfomanţelor sportivilor români, în perioada 15 aprilie - 31 august 2012, Clasa Business a companiei Tarom se va numi Clasă Olimpică, pe toate cursele companiei Tarom. Toţi pasagerii Clasei Olimpice vor beneficia de tarife speciale, cu reduceri cuprinse între 5% şi 30% faţă de cele standard. În acelaşi timp, fiecare client al Clasei Olimpice care călătoreşte pe orice rută externă, va primi din partea companiei TAROM o medalie olimpică simbolică, devenind astfel împreună cu TAROM susţinător oficial al lotului olimpic român pentru susţinerea performanţei olimpice.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Tarom-olimpiada1.jpg\" "\\"Tarom")

Ca o recunoaştere în plus a perfomanţelor sportivilor români, în perioada 15 aprilie - 31 august 2012, Clasa Business a companiei Tarom se va numi Clasă Olimpică, pe toate cursele companiei Tarom. Toţi pasagerii Clasei Olimpice vor beneficia de tarife speciale, cu reduceri cuprinse între 5% şi 30% faţă de cele standard. În acelaşi timp, fiecare client al Clasei Olimpice care călătoreşte pe orice rută externă, va primi din partea companiei TAROM o medalie olimpică simbolică, devenind astfel împreună cu TAROM susţinător oficial al lotului olimpic român pentru susţinerea performanţei olimpice.\r\n\r\n„Suntem mândri că suntem transportatorul lotului olimpic român şi că participăm la susţinerea performanţelor internaţionale. Parteneriatul este o dovadă a recunoaşterii şi aprecierii TAROM pentru performanţa sportivilor români şi îl vom onora cu deosebită bucurie şi mândrie” - a declarat Gabriela Bordea, director general TAROM. La rândul său Octavian Morariu, preşedintele COSR a salutat „iniţiativa TAROM de a introduce, pe o perioadă de câteva luni, Clasa Olimpică pe rutele sale, pentru ca astfel călătoriile efectuate cu compania naţională de transport aerian să capete valenţe olimpice.”\r\n\r\nMai în glumă mai în serios Nicu Vlad, vicepreşedintele COSR, a spus că probabil va fi nevoie de la Tarom şi de o aeronavă cargo, cu care să fie transportate medaliile pe care sportivii români le vor cîştiga la olimpiada de la Londra. Aşteptăm evenimentul.

Peste patru ani China va deveni a doua putere turistică din lume, după Statele Unite, în ceea ce priveşte volumul investiţiilor făcute în acest domeniu. Conform unui raport al Consiliului Mondial al Turismului şi Călătorilor (WTTC) - care reevaluează potenţialul zonei China, Hong Kong şi Macao -, industria chineză de profil se dezvoltă “cu viteza luminii”. Unul dintre liderii organizaţiei Jean Claude Baumgarten subliniază că fondurile alocate sectorului turistic în China, care înglobează consumul, investiţiile, cheltuielile guvernamentale şi exporturile, se vor majora anual în intervalul 2007-2016 cu 8,7%. WTTC a încurajat statul chinez să introducă concedii plătite pentru angajaţi, pentru a promova călătoriile în străinătate în rândul cetăţenilor chinezi şi învăţarea limbii engleze. Deşi industria turismului în China cunoaşte o creştere accelerată, mulţi vizitatori străini încă evită această regiune, din cauza infrastructurii deficitare şi a posibilităţii reduse de a relaţiona cu localnicii, care nu vorbesc limbi străine. Prognozele pe acest an ale WTTC la numărul de turişti străini atraşi, arată că e posibil ca Statele Unite să fie surclasate de China care ar putea urca pe locul 2 după Franţa, locul 4 revenind Spaniei. La sfârşitul lui 2018 Franţa ar urma să fie detronată de China ce va ocupa poziţia de lider internaţional.
![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/China-2-558.jpg\" "\\"China")
La rândul său Organizaţia Mondială a Turismului (OMT) prognozează că până în 2017, China va deveni principala destinaţie turistică pe plan mondial, cu trei ani mai devreme decât termenul estimat anterior de către experţii organizaţiei. Aceştia prevăzuseră că în 2020 China va primi 137 de milioane de turişti, însa, conform unui oficial al Administraţiei Naţionale a Turismului, ţinta va fi atinsă mai repede. 2010 a fost un moment de vârf pentru circulaţia turistică spre Asia, stimulată în principal de organizarea la Shanghai, a World Expo 2010. Referindu-se la explozia turistică Taleb Rifai, preşedintele OMT, releva: \"China a decis în urmă cu câţiva ani că turismul trebuie să devină unul dintre pilonii economiei şi acest lucru a funcţionat. În 2000 această ţară primea doar 8 milioane de turişti străini, de şase ori mai puţini decât în 2009. Anul trecut spre spre această mare destinaţie asiatică s-au îndreptat 56 de milioane de turişti iar prognozele pentru 2011 sunt şi mai optimiste. Centrul de gravitaţie este în curs să se deplaseze spre China, dar şi spre Asia în general”. Rifai a susţinut afirmaţiile oficialului chinez, conform cărora e posibil ca mai devreme de 2020, China să ajungă destinaţia mondială numărul 1 în ceea ce priveşte exportul turistic dar şi la numărul de turişti care vor călători în străinătate.
Tot anul trecut China a alocat 17 miliarde de dolari pentru dezvoltarea infrastructurii de transport aerian pentru a face faţă ritmului alert de creştere a circulaţiei turistice. Au ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/china-3.jpg\" "\\"OLYMPUS")
apărut 44 de aeroporturi noi China deţinând la această oră peste 175 de unităţi în care aterizează peste 1.500 de aeronave, un număr dublu faţă de anii 2007. Boom-ul se datorează şi faptului că în urmă cu patru ani China a început să practice o politică de deschidere pentru investiţiile dezvoltate de companii străine în infrastructura de transport aerian. Dar cea mai importantă ştire din acest domeniu a fost lansată la finele anului trecut. Producătorul Airbus a încheiat negocierile cu autorităţile de la Beijing pentru o comandă fabuloasă, care se ridică la 16 miliarde de dolari. Ea prevede cumpărarea a 150 de aeronave, respectiv 120 de aparate A320, 20 de A330 şi 10 A350. Numărul aparatelor ar putea să ajungă chiar la 200 conform acordului agreat de către preşedintele chinez Hu Jintao, cu ocazia vizitei sale în Franţa. Să tot zbori spre China !

Emiratele Arabe Unite vor pe locul 1\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/dubai-049.jpg\" "\\"OLYMPUS")
\r\nDubaiul va deveni una dintre cele mai mari atracţii ale lumii turistice. Estimarea aparţine lui Khalid A bin Sulayem, directorul general al Departamentului de Turism şi Comert al metropolei. El a declarat că în următorii 5 ani, numărul turiştilor din Dubai va ajunge până la 15 milioane, ceea va consemna o creştere de peste 100%, în comparaţie cu 2006. În prezent Dubaiul se apropie de 70.000 de camere de hotel. Până în 2015 numărul acestora va ajunge la 124.000.

ultimii ani. Cel mai luxos şi înalt hotel al planetei este încă Burj Al Arab, a cărui “naştere” a costat aproape un miliard de dolari. Are 60 de etaje şi 202 duplexuri, de care se îngrijesc 1.100 de angajaţi. Cel mai mic apartament are 169 de metri pătraţi, iar cele mai luxoase au o suprafaţă de 789 de metri pătraţi. Burj are 321 de metri înălţime. Pentru construcţia lui au fost necesari 70.000 de metri cubi de beton şi 9.000 de tone de oţel, iar pentru decorurile interioare au fost folosiţi 8.000 de metri pătraţi de foiţă de aur de 22 de carate. Cea mai mare şi mai luxoasă insulă artificială construită de om este Complexul Palmira (Palmier), plus alte două „surori gemene”, iar tot aici funcţionează cel mai mare mall din lume. Un loc fantastic este giganticul Turn Dubai, cea mai înaltă clădire din lume şi „perla coroanei” Emiratului. Burj Dubaiva va trece de cota 600 de metri în forma finală, cu 164 de etaje. Un alt proiect fabulos, care va contribui la creşterea circulaţiei turistice dar şi a transporturilor cargo, este Aeroportul Internaţional Al-Maktoum, de zece ori mai mare decat actualul aeroport internaţional şi Dubai Cargo City la un loc. Ca o idee noul aeroportul, în a cărui construcţie se investesc în jur de 82 de miliarde de dolari, va fi tranzitat anual de circa 120 de milioane de persoane, cu peste 30% mai mult decât Atlanta, cel mai aglomerat aeroport din lume. În paralel, se lucrează la cel mai mare Parc de distracţii din lume - „Dubailand” - ale cărui lucrări se vor încheia în întregime în 2018. Aici funcţionează un hotel colosal, cotat drept unul dintre cele mai mari din lume. Complexul Asia Asia plusează pe piaţa naţională cu încă 6.500 de camere. Cum arată? Merită să vă încumetaţi să le vedeţi.\r\n\r\nEmiratele Arabe Unite împreună cu Dubai-ul au devenit un magnet turistic nu numai datorită investiţiilor. Ci şi promovării orientate spre marii furnizori turistici. Cele mai importante pieţe europene pentru Dubai sunt: Marea Britanie, Germania, Franţa şi Italia, iar cele mai noi sunt SUA, Brazilia şi China. În ansamblu turismul contribuie direct cu 20% la Produsul intern brut al Emiratelor Arabe Unite şi are o pondere indirectă de 30%.\r\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU

\r\nUnul dintre cele mai profitabile cluburi de fotbal din lume - Real Madrid – a anunţat că va investi 1 miliard de dolari (peste 750 de milioane de euro) în construirea unui parc tematic, a cărei inaugrare este prevăzută peste trei ani. El va fi amplasat în Emirate, pe o insula artificială şi va purta numele Real Madrid Resort Island.
![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Real-madrid-1.jpg\" "\\"Real")
Football Investment. Real Madrid Resort Island va fi “una dintre porţile de intrare în Emirate, în condiţiile în care azi peste jumătate din cei 300 de milioane de fani ai clubului madrilean provin din Asia” – a afirmat la întâlnirea cu media Louis Armand de Rouge, unul dintre responsabilii proiectului.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Travelodge se gândeşte la 2020
\r\nLanţul hotelier britanic Travelodge şi-a anunţat intenţia de a investi în Spania, până în 2020 peste 976 de milioane de euro. Aceasta va contribui la construirea ori achiziţionarea a o sută de unităţi hoteliere. Într-o primă etapă sunt vizate oraşele Madrid, Barcelona şi Valencia.

Conform unui raport al Consiliului Mondial al Turismului şi Călătorilor (WTTC) - care reevaluează potenţialul zonei China, Hong Kong şi Macao -, industria chineză de profil se dezvoltă “cu viteza luminii”. Unul dintre liderii organizaţiei Jean Claude Baumgarten subliniază că fondurile alocate sectorului turistic în China, care înglobează consumul, investiţiile, cheltuielile guvernamentale şi exporturile, se vor majora anual în intervalul 2007-2016 cu 8,7%. WTTC a încurajat statul chinez să introducă concedii plătite pentru angajaţi, pentru a promova călătoriile în străinătate în rândul cetăţenilor chinezi şi învăţarea limbii engleze. Deşi industria turismului în China cunoaşte o creştere accelerată, mulţi vizitatori străini încă evită această regiune, din cauza infrastructurii deficitare şi a posibilităţii reduse de a relaţiona cu localnicii, care nu vorbesc limbi străine. Prognozele pe acest an ale WTTC la numărul de turişti străini atraşi, arată că e posibil ca Statele Unite să fie surclasate de China care ar putea urca pe locul 2 după Franţa, locul 4 revenind Spaniei. La sfârşitul lui 2018 Franţa ar urma să fie detronată de China ce va ocupa poziţia de lider internaţional.\n\nMai devreme de 2020
La rândul său Organizaţia Mondială a Turismului (OMT) prognozează că până în 2017, China va deveni principala destinaţie turistică pe plan mondial, cu trei ani mai devreme decât termenul estimat anterior de către experţii organizaţiei. Aceştia prevăzuseră că în 2020 China va primi 137 de milioane de turişti, însa, conform unui oficial al Administraţiei Naţionale a Turismului, ţinta va fi atinsă mai repede. 2010 a fost un moment de vârf pentru circulaţia turistică spre Asia, stimulată în principal de organizarea la Shanghai, a World Expo 2010. Referindu-se la explozia turistică Taleb Rifai, preşedintele OMT, releva: \"China a decis în urmă cu câţiva ani că turismul trebuie să devină unul dintre pilonii economiei şi acest lucru a funcţionat. În 2000 această ţară primea doar 8 milioane de turişti străini, de şase ori mai puţini decât în 2009. Anul trecut spre spre această mare destinaţie asiatică s-au îndreptat 56 de milioane de turişti iar prognozele pentru 2011 sunt şi mai optimiste. Centrul de gravitaţie este în curs să se deplaseze spre China, dar şi spre Asia în general”.

Tot anul trecut China a alocat 17 miliarde de dolari pentru dezvoltarea infrastructurii de transport aerian pentru a face faţă ritmului alert de creştere a circulaţiei turistice. Au apărut 44 de aeroporturi noi China deţinând la această oră peste 175 de unităţi în care aterizează peste 1.500 de aeronave, un număr dublu faţă de anii 2007. Boom-ul se datorează şi faptului că în urmă cu patru ani China a început să practice o politică de deschidere pentru investiţiile dezvoltate de companii străine în infrastructura de transport aerian. Dar cea mai importantă ştire din acest domeniu a fost lansată la finele anului trecut. Producătorul Airbus a încheiat negocierile cu autorităţile de la Beijing pentru o comandă fabuloasă, care se ridică la 16 miliarde de dolari. Ea prevede cumpărarea a 150 de aeronave, respectiv 120 de aparate A320, 20 de A330 şi 10 A350. Numărul aparatelor ar putea să ajungă chiar la 200 conform acordului agreat de către preşedintele chinez Hu Jintao, cu ocazia vizitei sale în Franţa. Să tot zbori spre China !

Estimarea aparţine lui Khalid A bin Sulayem, directorul general al Departamentului de Turism şi Comert al metropolei. El a declarat că în următorii 5 ani, numărul turiştilor din Dubai va ajunge până la 15 milioane, ceea va consemna o creştere de peste 100%, în comparaţie cu 2006.

Dacă sunteţi amatori să colecţionaţi informaţii şi evenimente hoteliere vă putem oferi câteva dintre cele care domină topul în ultimii ani. Cel mai luxos şi înalt hotel al planetei este încă Burj Al Arab, a cărui “naştere” a costat aproape un miliard de dolari. Are 60 de etaje şi 202 duplexuri, de care se îngrijesc 1.100 de angajaţi. Cel mai mic apartament are 169 de metri pătraţi, iar cele mai luxoase au o suprafaţă de 789 de metri pătraţi. Burj are 321 de metri înălţime. Pentru construcţia lui au fost necesari 70.000 de metri cubi de beton şi 9.000 de tone de oţel, iar pentru decorurile interioare au fost folosiţi 8.000 de metri pătraţi de foiţă de aur de 22 de carate. Cea mai mare şi mai luxoasă insulă artificială construită de om este Complexul Palmira (Palmier), plus alte două „surori gemene”, iar tot aici funcţionează cel mai mare mall din lume. Un loc fantastic este giganticul Turn Dubai, cea mai înaltă clădire din lume şi „perla coroanei” Emiratului. Burj Dubaiva va trece de cota 600 de metri în forma finală, cu 164 de etaje. Un alt proiect fabulos, care va contribui la creşterea circulaţiei turistice dar şi a transporturilor cargo, este Aeroportul Internaţional Al-Maktoum, de zece ori mai mare decat actualul aeroport internaţional şi Dubai Cargo City la un loc. Ca o idee noul aeroportul, în a cărui construcţie se investesc în jur de 82 de miliarde de dolari, va fi tranzitat anual de circa 120 de milioane de persoane, cu peste 30% mai mult decât Atlanta, cel mai aglomerat aeroport din lume. În paralel, se lucrează la cel mai mare Parc de distracţii din lume - „Dubailand” - ale cărui lucrări se vor încheia în întregime în 2018. Aici funcţionează un hotel colosal, cotat drept unul dintre cele mai mari din lume. Complexul Asia Asia plusează pe piaţa naţională cu încă 6.500 de camere. Cum arată? Merită să vă încumetaţi să le vedeţi.\n\nEmiratele Arabe Unite împreună cu Dubai-ul au devenit un magnet turistic nu numai datorită investiţiilor. Ci şi promovării orientate spre marii furnizori turistici. Cele mai importante pieţe europene pentru Dubai sunt: Marea Britanie, Germania, Franţa şi Italia, iar cele mai noi sunt SUA, Brazilia şi China. În ansamblu turismul contribuie direct cu 20% la Produsul intern brut al Emiratelor Arabe Unite şi are o pondere indirectă de 30%.

Care este capitala mondiala a cailor?
\nUn cal albastru! La fel de ciudată imagine şi la fel de uşor de reţinut ca şi o văcuţă elveţiană mov! Calul albastru este simbolul comercial, turistic, al unui oraş din statul Kentucky, SUA. Lexington are în jur de 300.000 de locuitori şi se consideră capitala mondială a… cailor.\n\nCine alege un circuit turistic în zonă, se poate plimba, lejer, chiar şi o săptămână, învăţând o mulţime de lucruri interesante despre istoria cailor din Lexington. La începutul secolului 18 au fost aduşi în SUA primii cai pur sânge din Anglia. În Lexington se creşte o rasă specială, denumită “toroughbred”, un pur sânge nărăvaş şi foarte rezistent. Pajiştile din celebra, pe plan local, regiune Bluegrass, au o iarbă cu conţinut ridicat de minerale, ceea ce asigură cailor o creştere sănătoasă şi o foarte bună asimilare a calciului în oase. Probabil că de la numele pajiştilor a apărut şi ideea de a picta calul-simbol al zonei, cu albastru.\n\nLexingtonul oferă două centre hipice de renume, Keenland şi Red Mile, iar turiştii pot vizita ferme speciale pentru creşterea cailor pentru competiţii, dar şi locaţii în care sunt îngrijiţi foştii campioni sau caii foarte bătrâni. În Kentucky Horse Park se fac lecţii interactive cu micuţii atraşi de lumea elegantelor animale, iar de anul trecut a fost pus în scenă un prim spectacol dedicat în exclusivitate etalării calităţilor şi frumuseţii cailor. Lexington a atras atenţia iubitorilor de competiţii ecvestre din toată lumea acum doi ani, prin organizarea primului concurs hipic modial din istorie care s-a ţinut în afara Europei (2010 FEI World Equestrian Games).

Real Madrid îşi construireşte o... insulă tematică
\n\nUnul dintre cele mai profitabile cluburi de fotbal din lume - Real Madrid – a anunţat că va investi 1 miliard de dolari (peste 750 de milioane de euro) în construirea unui parc tematic, a cărei inaugrare este prevăzută peste trei ani. El va fi amplasat în Emirate, pe o insula artificială şi va purta numele Real Madrid Resort Island.\n\nAvantgardistul proiect a fost prezentat în cadrul unei conferinţe de presă convocată pe stadionul Santiago Bernabeu. „Este un pas decisiv şi strategic. Complexul va atrage milioane de persoane în căutarea unor condiţii de odihnă de calitate. Decizia a fost luat pentru a spori prestigiul mărci noastre în Orientul Mijlociu şi Asia” - a declarat Florentino Perez, liderul clubului spaniol. La prezentare au participat antrenorul Jose Mourinho, secondat de Zinedine Zidane, Karim Benzema, Iker Casillas, Sergio Ramos etc.\n\nCum va arăta complexul ? Amplasat în emiratul Ras al-Khaimah el va beneficia de un stadion cu 10.000 de locuri. Cei mai buni jucatori ai clubului se vor recrea pe un teren de fotbal situat in interiorul unui parc tematic unde suporterii Real Madrid îşi vor pune la încercare curajul călătorind cu într-un montagne russe. Complexul va oferi, de asemenea, un hotel de lux, numeroase vile proiectate de-a lungul falezei şi terenuri de antrenament.\n\nInvestitorii care consolidează proiectul sunt reprezentaţi de fondul RAK Marjan Island Football Investment. Real Madrid Resort Island va fi “una dintre porţile de intrare în Emirate, în condiţiile în care azi peste jumătate din cei 300 de milioane de fani ai clubului madrilean provin din Asia” – a afirmat la întâlnirea cu media Louis Armand de Rouge, unul dintre responsabilii proiectului.

La prezentare au participat antrenorul Jose Mourinho, secondat de Zinedine Zidane, Karim Benzema, Iker Casillas, Sergio Ramos etc.\r\n\r\nCum va arăta complexul ? Amplasat în emiratul Ras al-Khaimah el va beneficia de un stadion cu 10.000 de locuri. Cei mai buni jucatori ai clubului se vor recrea pe un teren de fotbal situat in interiorul unui parc tematic unde suporterii Real Madrid îşi vor pune la încercare curajul călătorind cu într-un montagne russe. Complexul va oferi, de asemenea, un hotel de lux, numeroase vile proiectate de-a lungul falezei şi terenuri de antrenament.\r\n\r\nInvestitorii care consolidează proiectul sunt reprezentaţi de fondul RAK Marjan Island Football Investment. Real Madrid Resort Island va fi “una dintre porţile de intrare în Emirate, în condiţiile în care azi peste jumătate din cei 300 de milioane de fani ai clubului madrilean provin din Asia” – a afirmat la întâlnirea cu media Louis Armand de Rouge, unul dintre responsabilii proiectului.

Travelodge se gândeşte la 2020
\r\nLanţul hotelier britanic Travelodge şi-a anunţat intenţia de a investi în Spania, până în 2020 peste 976 de milioane de euro. Aceasta va contribui la construirea ori achiziţionarea a o sută de unităţi hoteliere. Într-o primă etapă sunt vizate oraşele Madrid, Barcelona şi Valencia. Grant Hearn, directorul executiv al Travelodge, a declarat că decizia a fost determinată de creşterea popularităţii Spaniei în topurile turistice internaţionale.\r\n\r\nDe asemenea şi cererea pentru hoteluri low-budget cunoaşte o creştere importantă la nivelul pieţei spaniole. Strategia de extindere a companiei a fost cristalizată după finalizarea un program pilot ce a constat în deschiderea în această ţară a 3 hoteluri, 2 în Madrid, respectiv unul în Barcelona.

INVESTIŢII ŞI EXPRESII\r\nJW Marriott a finalizat două proiecte
\r\nJW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel a anunţat finalizarea lucrărilor şi redeschiderea Ballroom-ului Constanţa şi a sălilor de conferinţe. În urma modernizărilor au fost instalate echipamente de ultima generaţie. Investiţia din 2012 pentru renovarea Constanţa Ballroom şi a sălilor mici s-a ridicat la o valoare de circa 730.000 de euro.\r\n\r\nProcesul a început în 2010 când complexul a marcat 10 ani de existenţă cu renovarea tuturor sălilor de conferinţe şi a spaţiilor publice din hotel. Primul pas a fost renovarea Grand Ballroom şi a zonei de la etajul 1, inclusiv Vienna Lounge. El a continuat în 2011 cu deschiderea JW Steakhouse şi s-a încheiat recent cu reamenajarea Ballroom-ului Constanţa şi a sălilor mici de conferinţă. Spaţiile de evenimente au fost dotate cu echipamente de ultimă generaţie, printre care sisteme audio şi video performante, echipamente încorporate în tavan, sistem de lumini inteligente, controlate prin iPod. “Avem deja o tradiţie pe piaţa evenimentelor din Bucureşti şi am vrut să oferim şi cea mai modernă tehnologie pentru ca oaspeţii să beneficieze de condiţii perfecte. Ne bucurăm că am încheiat procesul de modernizare a sălilor şi a spaţiilor publice, ce formează un centru de conferinţe dotat conform standardelor de ultima oră”- a precizat Igael Porecki, directorul general al hotelului JW Marriott Bucharest.\r\n\r\n De asemenea conducerea JW Marriott a anunţat şi încheierea campaniei „You eat, we give!”, parte a iniţiativei lansate pe plan global de către Marriott International - “A World of Opportunity”. Scopul acesteia este de a susţine programele de instruire şi dezvoltare a tinerilor din mediile defavorizate. Campania a însemnat donarea unui euro pentru fiecare persoană care a luat prânzul sau cina în cadrul restaurantului Champions în cursul lunii februarie. Fondurile strânse şi donate de complexul hotelier, în valoarea totală de 4.645 de euro, s-au îndreptat către organizaţia SOS Satele Copiilor România şi vor fi folosite pentru finanţarea unor programe şi cursuri de pregătire pentru tineret.

\r\nJaponia s-a confruntat cu o serie de evenimente tragice în ultimii ani. Cu toate acestea locuitorii ei se luptă pentru refacerea ţării dar şi a imaginii turistice, care atrage milioane de călători în fiecare an. Pentru ce ai pleca spre Japonia? La această întrebare au oferit argumente concludente 3 “pasionaţi” de această ţară. Primii doi sunt diplomaţi (Excelenţa Sa Natsuo Amemiya, ambasadorul Japoniei în România şi Yoshihiro Katayama, Consilier şi Şef Adjunct al ambasadei), cel de-al treilea fiind Clive Buckingham, unul dintre managerii Companiei Japan Travel Bureau UK. Domniile lor au vorbit despre frumuseţea şi unicitatea destinaţiei în cadrul Seminarului “Modalităţi de dezvoltare a turismului extern către ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/japonia-3.jpg\" "\\"japonia")
Japonia”, organizat la Grand Hotel Continental din Bucureşti. Cele mai frecvente cuvinte au fost Muntele Fuji, cireşii înfloriţi, Sapporo Snow Festival, sumo, Rail Pass, sushi, sake şi ceai japonez. Cu ultimele trei cei de faţă au avut ocazia să se delecteze la finalul manifestării. Cu aceeaşi ocazie Ministerul Român al Afacerilor Externe a distribuit un pliant cu reomandări utile pentru călătoriile în Japonia. Trebuie să ştiţi de exemplu, că puteţi rămâne în Japonia, fără viză, pentru o perioadă de 90 de zile, într-un interval de 6 luni de la data primei intrări în ţară. Asta dacă sunteţi posesorul unui paşaport valabil.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nTRADIŢIE: Ziua turismului rural\r\n\r\n
![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/ev-rural.jpg\" "\\"ev")
Asociaţia naţională a Turismului Rural şi Ecologic (ANTREC), a marcat în Duminica Floriilor Ziua Naţională a Turismului Rural. Intrată în tradiţie, manifestarea a fost marcată anul acesta la Fundăţica (localitate aflată la cea mai mare altitudine din România), comună ce aparţine de comuna Fundata, din judeţul Braşov. Filiala din acest judeţ a organizat împreună cu Consiliul Local din Fundata un festival încărcat de valenţe culturale, un adevărat catalizator al valorilor autentice româneşti.\r\n\r\nPe parcursul întregii zile la Căminului cultural din Fundăţica vizitatorii au fost întâmpinaţi cu prezentări de tradiţii şi meşteşuguri din Bran, Moieciu şi Râşnov, cu expoziţii de artă populară şi ouă încondeiate, sculpturi în lemn, ţesături, costume populare din zone precum Ţinutul Argeşului şi-al îndepărtatului Neamţ, precum şi multe alte exponate. Acestora li s-a alăturat şi o expoziţie gastronomică cu degustări de brânzeturi, vinuri din Vrancea, cozonanci, alături de multe preparate de post, specifice Sărbătorii Floriilor – ne-a precizat Marilena Stoian, preşedintele de onoare al ANTREC.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nÎmpăraţii romani sunt strânşi pe drumuri... istorice \r\n\r\nTimp de mai bine de doi ani, organizaţia Die Donau a recumandat ţărilor ce deţin vestigii din epoca romană, să realizeze programe şi rute turistice. Iată că acum, cînd nu mai spera aproape nimeni, mai multe ţări dunărene se arată interesate de valorificarea acestui
![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Ev-Imparati.jpg\" "\\"Ev")
patrimoniu fabulos. Dezvoltarea de rute culturale reprezintă o prioritate la nivel european. Ea răspunde preocupărilor pentru prezervarea şi promovarea patrimoniului cultural european.\r\n\r\nRomânia a decis, în anul 2010, să participe, alături de Serbia, Bulgaria şi Croaţia, la iniţiativa de înfiinţare a traseului turistic “Drumurile împăraţilor romani”, care include obiective cu rezonanţă istorică, situate de-a lungul unor foste rute ale Imperiului Roman, inclusiv în ţara noastră, până la Constanţa, unde sunt concentrate cele mai importante obiective. Nu s-au întîmplat însă prea multe lucruri concrete. Pe masa agenţiilor de turism nu există niciun program de acest fel. Din punct de vedere descriptiv itinerariile ar cuprinde drumuri romane, apeducte şi amfiteatre din Serbia, Croaţia, Bulgaria şi România. Două informaţii recente ne-au atras atenţia că ceva s-ar putea mişca în viitorul apropiat. Eugen Curteanu, secretar de stat în Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului, a semnat la Belgrad (Serbia), un Memorandumul de Înţelegere cu privire la proiectul “Ruta Culturală Turistică a Împăraţilor Romani”. Respectiv, la Băile Herculane a avut loc un simpozion menit să pună în evidenţă implicarea staţiunii în investiţii şi promovarea unei părţi din patrimoniul termal roman conservat în această zonă.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nPREMIERĂ: CEFA la Bucureşti \r\n \r\n
![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/ev-cefa.jpg\" "\\"ev")
ROMEXPO şi Camerele de Comerţ din România au găzduit, pentru prima dată în România, Reuniunea anuală a Comitetului Director al Alianţei Organizatorilor de Târguri din Europa Centrală - CEFA. Din delegaţii au făcut parte lideri ai Messe Munchen - Germania, Reed Exhibitions, Messe Wien – Austria, Messe Bozen - Germania, ai Novi Sad Fair şi ICM - Serbia, Inter Expo & Congress Center şi International Fair Plovdiv – Bulgaria etc. Specialiştii internaţionali au convenit asupra consolidării şi extinderii parteneriatelor de colaborare şi a realizării unei conexiuni la nivel european între reprezentanţii industriei de târguri şi expoziţii. CEFA a fost fondată în 1995. Alianţa numără 22 dintre cei mai importanţi organizatori de evenimente din Europa Centrala şi de Sud-Est: Belgrad, Bolzano, Bucureşti, Budapesta, Chişinău, Graz, Klagenfurt, Munchen, Novi Sad, Plovdiv, Sofia, Viena, Zagreb etc.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nPiloţi pentru „fluxuri” europene \r\nBătrânul continent este preocupat de găsirea unor soluţii în scopul realizării unei “geriatrii economice”. Una dintre ele este cu siguranţă turismul. Drept urmare Comisia Europeană va derula un Memorandul de Înţelegere privind Proiectul Pilot - „50.000 de turişti”.\r\n\r\nDocumentul a fost semnat la Bruxelles, din partea României, care a aderat la acest concept de perspectivă, de către Cristian Petrescu, ministrul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului şi Antonio Tajani, vicepreşedintele Comisiei Europene şi comisar pentru industrie şi antreprenoriat. Proiectul pilot vizează creşterea fluxului turistic dinspre America Latina către ţările Uniunii Europene. El a mai fost semnat de Franţa, Spania, Italia, Lituania, Polonia, Grecia, Argentina, Brazilia şi Chile.\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\n@ CURSE SUPLIMENTARE SPRE AEROPORTUL INTERNAŢIONAL de la Otopeni.

\nJaponia s-a confruntat cu o serie de evenimente tragice în ultimii ani. Cu toate acestea locuitorii ei se luptă pentru refacerea ţării dar şi a imaginii turistice, care atrage milioane de călători în fiecare an. Pentru ce ai pleca spre Japonia? La această întrebare au oferit argumente concludente 3 “pasionaţi” de această ţară. Primii doi sunt diplomaţi (Excelenţa Sa Natsuo Amemiya, ambasadorul Japoniei în România şi Yoshihiro Katayama, Consilier şi Şef Adjunct al ambasadei), cel de-al treilea fiind Clive Buckingham, unul dintre managerii Companiei Japan Travel Bureau UK. Domniile lor au vorbit despre frumuseţea şi unicitatea destinaţiei în cadrul Seminarului “Modalităţi de dezvoltare a turismului extern către Japonia”, organizat la Grand Hotel Continental din Bucureşti. Cele mai frecvente cuvinte au fost Muntele Fuji, cireşii înfloriţi, Sapporo Snow Festival, sumo, Rail Pass, sushi, sake şi ceai japonez. Cu ultimele trei cei de faţă au avut ocazia să se delecteze la finalul manifestării. Cu aceeaşi ocazie Ministerul Român al Afacerilor Externe a distribuit un pliant cu reomandări utile pentru călătoriile în Japonia. Trebuie să ştiţi de exemplu, că puteţi rămâne în Japonia, fără viză, pentru o perioadă de 90 de zile, într-un interval de 6 luni de la data primei intrări în ţară. Asta dacă sunteţi posesorul unui paşaport valabil.\n\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU \n\n\n\nTRADIŢIE: Ziua turismului rural\n\n
Asociaţia naţională a Turismului Rural şi Ecologic (ANTREC), a marcat în Duminica Floriilor Ziua Naţională a Turismului Rural. Intrată în tradiţie, manifestarea a fost marcată anul acesta la Fundăţica (localitate aflată la cea mai mare altitudine din România), comună ce aparţine de comuna Fundata, din judeţul Braşov. Filiala din acest judeţ a organizat împreună cu Consiliul Local din Fundata un festival încărcat de valenţe culturale, un adevărat catalizator al valorilor autentice româneşti.\n\nPe parcursul întregii zile la Căminului cultural din Fundăţica vizitatorii au fost întâmpinaţi cu prezentări de tradiţii şi meşteşuguri din Bran, Moieciu şi Râşnov, cu expoziţii de artă populară şi ouă încondeiate, sculpturi în lemn, ţesături, costume populare din zone precum Ţinutul Argeşului şi-al îndepărtatului Neamţ, precum şi multe alte exponate. Acestora li s-a alăturat şi o expoziţie gastronomică cu degustări de brânzeturi, vinuri din Vrancea, cozonanci, alături de multe preparate de post, specifice Sărbătorii Floriilor – ne-a precizat Marilena Stoian, preşedintele de onoare al ANTREC.\n\n\n\nÎmpăraţii romani sunt strânşi pe drumuri... istorice \n\nTimp de mai bine de doi ani, organizaţia Die Donau a recumandat ţărilor ce deţin vestigii din epoca romană, să realizeze programe şi rute turistice. Iată că acum, cînd nu mai spera aproape nimeni, mai multe ţări dunărene se arată interesate de valorificarea acestui
patrimoniu fabulos. Dezvoltarea de rute culturale reprezintă o prioritate la nivel european. Ea răspunde preocupărilor pentru prezervarea şi promovarea patrimoniului cultural european.\n\nRomânia a decis, în anul 2010, să participe, alături de Serbia, Bulgaria şi Croaţia, la iniţiativa de înfiinţare a traseului turistic “Drumurile împăraţilor romani”, care include obiective cu rezonanţă istorică, situate de-a lungul unor foste rute ale Imperiului Roman, inclusiv în ţara noastră, până la Constanţa, unde sunt concentrate cele mai importante obiective. Nu s-au întîmplat însă prea multe lucruri concrete. Pe masa agenţiilor de turism nu există niciun program de acest fel. Din punct de vedere descriptiv itinerariile ar cuprinde drumuri romane, apeducte şi amfiteatre din Serbia, Croaţia, Bulgaria şi România. Două informaţii recente ne-au atras atenţia că ceva s-ar putea mişca în viitorul apropiat. Eugen Curteanu, secretar de stat în Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului, a semnat la Belgrad (Serbia), un Memorandumul de Înţelegere cu privire la proiectul “Ruta Culturală Turistică a Împăraţilor Romani”. Respectiv, la Băile Herculane a avut loc un simpozion menit să pună în evidenţă implicarea staţiunii în investiţii şi promovarea unei părţi din patrimoniul termal roman conservat în această zonă.\n\n\n\nPREMIERĂ: CEFA la Bucureşti \n \nROMEXPO şi Camerele de Comerţ din România au găzduit, pentru prima dată în România, Reuniunea anuală a Comitetului Director al Alianţei Organizatorilor de Târguri din Europa Centrală - CEFA. Din delegaţii au făcut parte lideri ai Messe Munchen - Germania, Reed Exhibitions, Messe Wien – Austria, Messe Bozen - Germania, ai Novi Sad Fair şi ICM - Serbia, Inter Expo & Congress Center şi International Fair Plovdiv – Bulgaria etc. Specialiştii internaţionali au convenit asupra consolidării şi extinderii parteneriatelor de colaborare şi a realizării unei conexiuni la nivel european între reprezentanţii industriei de târguri şi expoziţii. CEFA a fost fondată în 1995. Alianţa numără 22 dintre cei mai importanţi organizatori de evenimente din Europa Centrala şi de Sud-Est: Belgrad, Bolzano, Bucureşti, Budapesta, Chişinău, Graz, Klagenfurt, Munchen, Novi Sad, Plovdiv, Sofia, Viena, Zagreb etc.\n\n
\n\nPiloţi pentru „fluxuri” europene \nBătrânul continent este preocupat de găsirea unor soluţii în scopul realizării unei “geriatrii economice”. Una dintre ele este cu siguranţă turismul. Drept urmare Comisia Europeană va derula un Memorandul de Înţelegere privind Proiectul Pilot - „50.000 de turişti”.\n\nDocumentul a fost semnat la Bruxelles, din partea României, care a aderat la acest concept de perspectivă, de către Cristian Petrescu, ministrul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului şi Antonio Tajani, vicepreşedintele Comisiei Europene şi comisar pentru industrie şi antreprenoriat. Proiectul pilot vizează creşterea fluxului turistic dinspre America Latina către ţările Uniunii Europene. El a mai fost semnat de Franţa, Spania, Italia, Lituania, Polonia, Grecia, Argentina, Brazilia şi Chile.\n\n

![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Int.-Herman-Rosner-178.jpg\" "\\"Int.")
Interlocutorul meu este un om ambiţios. E om de afaceri. E preşedintele Camerei de Comerţ şi Industrie Covasna, iar din această împletire de calităţi şi funcţii a reieşit o dorinţă consecventă de a readuce în prim planul atenţiei o staţiune cu calităţi terapeutice unice. Herman Rosner este promotorul mărcii înregistrate la OSIM „Covasna – Staţiunea celor 1.000 de izvoare de sănătate”, şi proprietarul ei din 2002, sub numărul 49656.
- Domnule Rosner, ne-am mai întâlnit în paginile acestei reviste. Revenim pentru că, iată, au apărut destule noutăţi !
\r\n- În fapt ne luptăm amândoi, şi vă mulţumesc pentru sprijin, ca să reconştientizăm pentru populaţia României, deci implicit pentru lumea politică, importanţa valorilor naturale pe care le deţine staţiunea Covasna. Nu vorbim de o resursă care se epuizează, ca petrolul, lemnul, mineralele, ci de factori naturali care contribuie la sănătatea oamenilor. Cititorii dumneavoastră trebuie să afle câteva date esenţiale pentru prezentul şi viitorul lor. De-a lungul ultimilor ani am militat la toate simpozioanele naţionale şi internaţionale, ca om de afaceri sau ca reprezentant al Camerei de Comerţ Covasna, pentru redescoperirea acestui potenţial unic. În 2009, la a III-a Bienală Europeană a Regiunilor Montane, am prezentat comunicarea „Challanges for healt tourism of the mineral waters from Carpathian mountains – eastern part of Transylvania”. Acolo ca şi la mesele rotunde naţionale am expus câteva date statistice alarmante.
\r\n- Chiar stăm atât de prost ?
\r\n- La potenţial natural stăm bine. Degrabă ce rezervele de apă minerală carbogazoasă terapeutică din judeţul Covasna sunt de 2,4 milioane de litri pe zi, ceea ce reprezintă aproape 20% din rezerva naţională estimată în 2008. Anual se îmbuteliază în judeţ peste 110 milioane de litri de apă minerală, care reprezintă circa 10% din cantitatea distribuită la nivelul ţării. În Covasna avem 14 mofete, unele dintre ele cu concentraţii de CO2 de până la 93% alături de elemente radioactive (RA şi RN) în concentraţii benefice curativ. Pot afirma că staţiunea despre care vorbim are, prin mofete, cele mai bogate şi puternice resurse de CO2 din Europa.
\r\n- Aţi militat şi promovat în ultimii ani ideea de „Mofetta – LNTV” (Long Term Natural Viagra), ca pe o alternativă la tratamentele medicamentoase. S-au schimbat lucrurile ?
\r\n- Într-o anumită măsură da. Principala problemă cu care ne confruntăm este că medicii ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Interviu-rosner-2.jpg\" "\\"Interviu")
recomandă în majoritatea bolilor coronariene şi de inimă, tratamente medicamentoase, în condiţiile în care există la numai câteva sute de kilometri, soluţii naturale de tratament şi prevenţie. Industria farmaceutică este mai puternică decât cea balneară în care s-au făcut şi se fac investiţii majore. A apărut o gravă ruptură. Iată o serie de elemente de referinţă: În 2010 un studiu al AHA (American Heart Association), consemna că România ocupa locul 4 la rata deceselor de cauză cardiovasculară la bărbaţi şi locul 3 la femei. 40 de români mor zilnic din cauza infarctului miocardic, conform studiilor prezentate în 2010 la cel de-al 49-lea Congres de Cardiologie. OMS estimează că bolile cardiovasculare vor rămâne principala cauză de deces la nivel mondial şi în următorii 20 de ani. Infarctul miocardic este responsabil de 12% din totalul deceselor, mai mult decât cancerul, accidentele, bolile infecţioase sau digestive. 1 din 3 pacienţi cu boală coronariană prezintă un risc de deces de 3 ori mai mare decât bolnavii de cancer. Încă un aspect de reţinut - Eurostat arăta că în ţara noastră, rata de mortalitate standardizată prin boli cardiovasculare este de circa 200 la 100.000 de locuitori, faţă de media europeană de 87,4. Şi asta în condiţiile în care în România avem o bază performantă de tratament preventiv, cu specialişti bine pregătiţi, în condiţiile în care numai la Covasna avem un Spital de Recuperare Cardiovasculară care a împlinit 50 de ani de activitate de succes în domeniu.
- Ce trebuie să ne mai dea de gândit?
\r\n- Dependenţa de comoditate. Companiile farmaceutice îşi fac foarte bine treaba astfel că ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Interviu-rosner.jpg\" "\\"Interviu")
numai în 2010 vânzările de medicamente au crescut până la 2,28 de miliarde de euro. O sumă fabuloasă. Pacienţii ar trebui să ştie că bolile cardiovasculare, în stadii incipiente, pot fi tratate cu concepte naturale, iar Covasna este campioană la acest capitol. Turiştii străini, vin într-un număr din ce în ce mai mare în această staţiune, iar ultimul an ne-a arătat că şi românii au început să conştientizeze acest lucru. Anul trecut în judeţul Covasna am înregistrat o creştere de 33% a numărului de înnoptări în structuri de primire turistică, iar hotelurile balneare au avut un indice de ocupare de aproape 100% în perioada iulie-septembrie 2011. Mulţi alţii sunt pe cale să descopere motto-ul după care mă călăuzesc de mulţi ani „Timpul înseamnă bani, sănătatea înseamnă aur!”.
- Dincolo de aspectele comerciale nu credeţi că aceste concepte ar trebui promovate la nivel naţional ?
\r\n- Fără îndoială că ar trebui o campanie naţională care să fie susţinut în principal de Ministerele Muncii, Sănătăţii şi al Turismului. Se simte o rezistenţă foarte puternică iar presiunile sunt de natură comercială. Până la urmă consumatorul instruit va decide dacă doreşte să se îndoape în continuare cu medicamente, unele dintre ele nu contest necesare, sau să se întreţină şi să se pună în formă într-o staţiune, în cazul nostru Covasna. Dacă am văzut că aşa stau lucrurile ne-am concentrat pe plan local pentru a susţine campanie ce se adresează şi pieţei internaţionale, unde am pierdut mulţi turişti în ultimele două decenii şi jumătate. Vedeţi, nu mai suntem o ţară închisă. Facem parte din Uniunea Europeană şi ca atare suntem vânători, la concurenţă cu alte ţări, dar vânători de turişti pentru sănătatea lor. În acest context se înscrie şi proiectul aflat în derulare cu Televiziunea Română, prin TVR Internaţional, care a realizat şi transmis deja trei producţii dedicate exclusiv Covasnei – „Staţiunea celor 1.000 de izvoare de sănătate”.

E om de afaceri. E preşedintele Camerei de Comerţ şi Industrie Covasna, iar din această împletire de calităţi şi funcţii a reieşit o dorinţă consecventă de a readuce în prim planul atenţiei o staţiune cu calităţi terapeutice unice. Herman Rosner este promotorul mărcii înregistrate la OSIM „Covasna – Staţiunea celor 1.000 de izvoare de sănătate”, şi proprietarul ei din 2002, sub numărul 49656.
- Domnule Rosner, ne-am mai întâlnit în paginile acestei reviste. Revenim pentru că, iată, au apărut destule noutăţi !
\n- În fapt ne luptăm amândoi, şi vă mulţumesc pentru sprijin, ca să reconştientizăm pentru populaţia României, deci implicit pentru lumea politică, importanţa valorilor naturale pe care le deţine staţiunea Covasna. Nu vorbim de o resursă care se epuizează, ca petrolul, lemnul, mineralele, ci de factori naturali care contribuie la sănătatea oamenilor. Cititorii dumneavoastră trebuie să afle câteva date esenţiale pentru prezentul şi viitorul lor. De-a lungul ultimilor ani am militat la toate simpozioanele naţionale şi internaţionale, ca om de afaceri sau ca reprezentant al Camerei de Comerţ Covasna, pentru redescoperirea acestui potenţial unic. În 2009, la a III-a Bienală Europeană a Regiunilor Montane, am prezentat comunicarea „Challanges for healt tourism of the mineral waters from Carpathian mountains – eastern part of Transylvania”. Acolo ca şi la mesele rotunde naţionale am expus câteva date statistice alarmante.
\n- Chiar stăm atât de prost ?
\n- La potenţial natural stăm bine. Degrabă ce rezervele de apă minerală carbogazoasă terapeutică din judeţul Covasna sunt de 2,4 milioane de litri pe zi, ceea ce reprezintă aproape 20% din rezerva naţională estimată în 2008. Anual se îmbuteliază în judeţ peste 110 milioane de litri de apă minerală, care reprezintă circa 10% din cantitatea distribuită la nivelul ţării. În Covasna avem 14 mofete, unele dintre ele cu concentraţii de CO2 de până la 93% alături de elemente radioactive (RA şi RN) în concentraţii benefice curativ. Pot afirma că staţiunea despre care vorbim are, prin mofete, cele mai bogate şi puternice resurse de CO2 din Europa.
\n- Aţi militat şi promovat în ultimii ani ideea de „Mofetta – LNTV” (Long Term Natural Viagra), ca pe o alternativă la tratamentele medicamentoase. S-au schimbat lucrurile ?
\n- Într-o anumită măsură da. Principala problemă cu care ne confruntăm este că medicii recomandă în majoritatea bolilor coronariene şi de inimă, tratamente medicamentoase, în condiţiile în care există la numai câteva sute de kilometri, soluţii naturale de tratament şi prevenţie. Industria farmaceutică este mai puternică decât cea balneară în care s-au făcut şi se fac investiţii majore. A apărut o gravă ruptură. Iată o serie de elemente de referinţă: În 2010 un studiu al AHA (American Heart Association), consemna că România ocupa locul 4 la rata deceselor de cauză cardiovasculară la bărbaţi şi locul 3 la femei. 40 de români mor zilnic din cauza infarctului miocardic, conform studiilor prezentate în 2010 la cel de-al 49-lea Congres de Cardiologie. OMS estimează că bolile cardiovasculare vor rămâne principala cauză de deces la nivel mondial şi în următorii 20 de ani. Infarctul miocardic este responsabil de 12% din totalul deceselor, mai mult decât cancerul, accidentele, bolile infecţioase sau digestive. 1 din 3 pacienţi cu boală coronariană prezintă un risc de deces de 3 ori mai mare decât bolnavii de cancer. Încă un aspect de reţinut - Eurostat arăta că în ţara noastră, rata de mortalitate standardizată prin boli cardiovasculare este de circa 200 la 100.000 de locuitori, faţă de media europeană de 87,4. Şi asta în condiţiile în care în România avem o bază performantă de tratament preventiv, cu specialişti bine pregătiţi, în condiţiile în care numai la Covasna avem un Spital de Recuperare Cardiovasculară care a împlinit 50 de ani de activitate de succes în domeniu.
- Ce trebuie să ne mai dea de gândit?
\n- Dependenţa de comoditate. Companiile farmaceutice îşi fac foarte bine treaba astfel că numai în 2010 vânzările de medicamente au crescut până la 2,28 de miliarde de euro. O sumă fabuloasă. Pacienţii ar trebui să ştie că bolile cardiovasculare, în stadii incipiente, pot fi tratate cu concepte naturale, iar Covasna este campioană la acest capitol. Turiştii străini, vin într-un număr din ce în ce mai mare în această staţiune, iar ultimul an ne-a arătat că şi românii au început să conştientizeze acest lucru. Anul trecut în judeţul Covasna am înregistrat o creştere de 33% a numărului de înnoptări în structuri de primire turistică, iar hotelurile balneare au avut un indice de ocupare de aproape 100% în perioada iulie-septembrie 2011. Mulţi alţii sunt pe cale să descopere motto-ul după care mă călăuzesc de mulţi ani „Timpul înseamnă bani, sănătatea înseamnă aur!”.
\n- Dincolo de aspectele comerciale nu credeţi că aceste concepte ar trebui promovate la nivel naţional ?
\n- Fără îndoială că ar trebui o campanie naţională care să fie susţinut în principal de Ministerele Muncii, Sănătăţii şi al Turismului. Se simte o rezistenţă foarte puternică iar presiunile sunt de natură comercială. Până la urmă consumatorul instruit va decide dacă doreşte să se îndoape în continuare cu medicamente, unele dintre ele nu contest necesare, sau să se întreţină şi să se pună în formă într-o staţiune, în cazul nostru Covasna. Dacă am văzut că aşa stau lucrurile ne-am concentrat pe plan local pentru a susţine campanie ce se adresează şi pieţei internaţionale, unde am pierdut mulţi turişti în ultimele două decenii şi jumătate. Vedeţi, nu mai suntem o ţară închisă. Facem parte din Uniunea Europeană şi ca atare suntem vânători, la concurenţă cu alte ţări, dar vânători de turişti pentru sănătatea lor. În acest context se înscrie şi proiectul aflat în derulare cu Televiziunea Română, prin TVR Internaţional, care a realizat şi transmis deja trei producţii dedicate exclusiv Covasnei – „Staţiunea celor 1.000 de izvoare de sănătate”. Desigur avem în vedere şi o diversificare a mesajelor pentru că publicul are acum preferinţe din ce în ce mai variate. Trebuie să ajungem cât mai rapid la el, să-l motivăm să ţină la sănătatea lui.
\n- Ce ar trebui să reprezinte fie Covasna, în plus, în percepţia consumatorilor ?
\n- O bibliotecă deschisă a naturii. Un tratament reuşit este ca o carte bună, care îţi creează o încărcătură pozitivă, îţi realimentează bateriile, astfel ca a doua zi când pleci la muncă, să poţi zâmbi vieţii în ochi.

Frumos şi realist. Ascultam la un eveniment în care era prezentat un produs turistic o demostraţie extraordinară a liderului unui touroperator român. Cu o capacitate de comunicare puternică acesta transmitea mesaje serioase despre felul cum va evolua sau va involua piaţa de travel din România.

Apoi semnala că lupta din jungla banilor dintre agenţiile de turism, adică oferirea unui preţ cât mai scăzut pentru a pune mâna pe client cu orice preţ, a deplasat business-ul din această industrie spre zona canibalizării şi a condus, după cum s-a văzut anul trecut, spre intrări în insolvenţă şi faliment a unor agenţii de turism.

Observaţia este corectă.

Ascultam la un eveniment în care era prezentat un produs turistic o demostraţie extraordinară a liderului unui touroperator român. Cu o capacitate de comunicare puternică acesta transmitea mesaje serioase despre felul cum va evolua sau va involua piaţa de travel din România. Domnia sa considera că turistul adevărat care aparţine viitorului va fi cel care îşi va alege o ofertă nu după preţ ci după calitatea pe care o conţine acel produs. Apoi semnala că lupta din jungla banilor dintre agenţiile de turism, adică oferirea unui preţ cât mai scăzut pentru a pune mâna pe client cu orice preţ, a deplasat business-ul din această industrie spre zona canibalizării şi a condus, după cum s-a văzut anul trecut, spre intrări în insolvenţă şi faliment a unor agenţii de turism. Cum s-ar spune au preferat să se înjunghie singure pe la spate.\n\nÎn plus speacher-ul se arăta nemulţumit de faptul că pe piaţa românească a apărut o inflaţie de oferte speciale, de early booking, de pachete cu preţ redus, astfel că în aceste condiţii consumatorul este înclinat să creadă, atunci când se intră în sezonul plin cu preţuri ajustate în sus, că i se umblă la buzunar, că este furat. Observaţia este corectă. Ceea ce nu s-a spus însă este că în mediul de afaceri din turism informaţia reală circulă greu, aiurea şi dezordonat, aşa că fiecare consumator se raportează la un preţ emoţional şi subiectiv. În fine, liderul în cauză arăta că odată cu trecerea timpului şi creşterea educaţiei în turism, clientul se va orienta spre produsele mai scumpe, dar garantate, căutând programe superioare, de calitate. \n\nRecomandarea făcută celor de faţă a fost să lucreze cu agenţiile serioase, care pot oferi asemenea garanţii. Altfel vor dispărea. Când toate lucrurile păreau aşezate nemţeşte în rafturi, din sală s-a ridicat un revânzător, un agent mai mic, care şi-a expus opinia. Demnă de luat în seamă. Spunea acesta: Ceea ce am auzit exprimă o realitate. Dar mai există şi o altă realitate. Cum le îmbinăm? În fiecare zi căutăm să satisfacem dorinţele clientului. Deci în fiecare zi creăm momeli pentru peştişorii coloraţi din acvariul turismului. Fiecare specie preferă o anumită momeală, şi muşcă din ea doar dacă îi place. Ca urmare încercăm să montăm oferte care să se potrivească gustului fiecăruia. Turiştii sunt ca peştişorii din acvariu. Cum îl scapi din undiţă fug imediat la un concurent de-al tău. Trebuie să-l cointeresăm prin preţ, prin bonus, prin alte facilităţi care ţin de marketing.\n\nNu pot spune că mă pricem la pescuit. Dar mi-a plăcut foarte mult chestia asta cu peştişorii coloraţi. Exotici sau nu, cu bani mai mulţi sau mai puţini în buzunar şi ei sunt o realitate.\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\nDoriţi să citiţi toată revista?

Oamenii locului susţin că lăcaşul de cult ar fi fost terminat cu banii ţiganilor ursari şi de aceea apare şi inedita frescă dedicată lor. Trimiterile istorice, etnografice dar şi fotografiile de epocă, alături de eseurile autorilor, captivează prin detalierea acestei ocupaţii pierdute. Ursul este când animalul sacru al locului, când un om blestemat să fie animal, când un instrument de amuzament, jocul cu ursul fiind atestat ultima dată în anii 1930.

10 atracţii pentru THAILANDA

„Călător pe mapamond” de către editura Ad Libri, condusă se artistul fotograf Florin Andreescu. Lucrarea reprezintă o traducere a ghidului scris de Andrew Forbes şi David Henley, care au sintetizat experienţele trăite pe parcursul a mai bine de zece ani. Dacă vreţi să aflaţi esenţa acetei ţări fascinante, unde sunt oazele de linişte, cum stau treburile cu gastronomia, magazinele, atracţiile pentru copii, ei bine trebuie să parcurgeţi acest ghid. Are cu puţin peste 140 de pagini, conţine informaţii actualizate şi hărţi care vă facilitează orientarea în această ţară în care zâmbetul e mai mult decât o stare de fapt.

A devenit o tradiţie. În fiecare an Comisia Afaceri Sociale, Sănătate şi Dezvoltare Durabilă a Adunării Parlamentare a Consiliului Europei (APCE) recompensează o serie de localităţi cu mai multe categorii de distincţii: Premiul Europa, Placheta de onoare, Steagurile de onoare ori Diplomele europene. În acest an, cel mai premiat oraş din ţara noastră - Sighişoara – a fost distins cu Premiul Europa. Acesta recompensează eforturile pentru promovarea unităţii europene ale municipalităţilor din cele 47 de state membre ale Consiliului Europei. Ceremonia de decernare a Premiului urmează să aibă loc în timpul Festivalului medieval de la Sighişoara (20-29 iulie). Ministerul român al Afacerilor Externe a mai anunţat că printre câştigătorii din anul acesta ai Diplomei de onoare, decernată tot de APCE, se numără încă un oraş din ţara noastră – Mioveni.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCLUJUL VREA SĂ FIE CAPITALĂ EUROPEANĂ\r\n\r\nŞi nu de orice fel, ci a Tineretului.

Titlul este acordat de Forumul European al Tinerilor şi experţi ai Comisiei Europene. Documentaţia a fost depusă în această lună la Bruxelles, iar la toamnă va fi anunţat oraşul câştigător. Unul dintre motivele prioritare îl constituie atragerea de finanţări europene pentru programele de tineret şi creşterea implicării tinerilor în viaţa economică şi socială a comunităţii. Proiectul va fi derulat de Primăria Cluj-Napoca în colaborare cu o organizaţie neguvernamentală, specializată în derularea unor asemenea programe.\r\n

GICĂ POPESCU se antrenează în liga… americană
După aproape trei ani de studii, tatonări şi negocieri americanii de la Marriott s-au hotârât să semneze pentru venirea brandului Courtyard. La Cluj se coace de o de o manifestare în premieră, de care chiar aveam nevoie. Şi pentru că tot e primăvară au început transferurile de la un hotel la altul. Ca şi în fotbal patronii speră ca noii antrenori-manageri, să le umple buzunarele. Lucru care nu se va întâmpla decât la cei care vor avea încredere şi răbdare.
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
INVESTIŢII\r\nCourtyard a intrat în Bucureşti
\r\nPeste aproximativ un an şi jumătate la Bucureşti se va deschide al doilea hotel din lanţul Marriott International Inc. şi primul sub brandul Courtyard Marriott. Parteneriatul pentru construirea, dezvoltarea şi operarea acestui hotel a fost semnat la sfârşitul lunii aprilie între compania Gică Popescu Hotels, al cărui preşedintele este fostul fotbalist Gheorghe Popescu ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Courtyard-Gica-Popescu1.jpg\" "\\"Courtyard")
şi John Litzenberger, vicepreşedinte la Marriott International Lodging Development Europe. Hotelul va fi amplasat în sectorul 1, pe un teren din apropierea vechii clădiri a Primăriei. El va beneficia de o foarte bună poziţionare faţă de centrul oraşului şi de porţile feroviare şi aeriene ale Capitalei. Courtyard Marriott Bucharest Hotel va fi operat pe baza unui contract de management direct, au anunţat oficialii companiei Trend Hospitality, care au asigurat consultanţa pentru acest parteneriat. Investiţia e cotată la circa 20 de milioane de euro. Lucrările de construcţie vor începe în luna iulie. Proiectul aparţine biroului Architect Service. Hotelul va activa la categoria de 4 stele. El va oferi 146 de camere, 4 săli de conferinţă, bar, spa şi spaţii comerciale.\r\n“Avem deja o poveste de succes în România, cu JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel, şi sunt sigur că o putem repeta şi pentru noul Courtyard Marriott. Suntem încântaţi de iniţiativa lui Gică Popescu de a dezvolta acest proiect şi aşteptăm cu nerabdare deschiderea ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Courtyard-John-Litzenberger-2.jpg\" "\\"Courtyard")

Gheorghe Popescu s-a arătat mulţumit că “după negocieri de lungă durată, managementul Marriott International a considerat că un nou proiect marca Marriott în România este oportun şi de viitor. Este un semn de încredere că putem realiza proiecte de lungă durată. Sunt încântat de parteneriatul cu Marriott International dar şi de faptul că vom dezvolta investiţia aici, în România”. Primul hotel al brandului Courtyard Marriott a fost deschis în 1983. Azi în întreaga lume activează 900 de astfel de complexe.

\nDupă aproape trei ani de studii, tatonări şi negocieri americanii de la Marriott s-au hotârât să semneze pentru venirea brandului Courtyard. La Cluj se coace de o de o manifestare în premieră, de care chiar aveam nevoie. Şi pentru că tot e primăvară au început transferurile de la un hotel la altul. Ca şi în fotbal patronii speră ca noii antrenori-manageri, să le umple buzunarele. Lucru care nu se va întâmpla decât la cei care vor avea încredere şi răbdare.
\n\n\n\n
INVESTIŢII\nCourtyard a intrat în Bucureşti
\nPeste aproximativ un an şi jumătate la Bucureşti se va deschide al doilea hotel din lanţul Marriott International Inc. şi primul sub brandul Courtyard Marriott. Parteneriatul pentru construirea, dezvoltarea şi operarea acestui hotel a fost semnat la sfârşitul lunii aprilie între compania Gică Popescu Hotels, al cărui preşedintele este fostul fotbalist Gheorghe Popescu şi John Litzenberger, vicepreşedinte la Marriott International Lodging Development Europe. Hotelul va fi amplasat în sectorul 1, pe un teren din apropierea vechii clădiri a Primăriei. El va beneficia de o foarte bună poziţionare faţă de centrul oraşului şi de porţile feroviare şi aeriene ale Capitalei. Courtyard Marriott Bucharest Hotel va fi operat pe baza unui contract de management direct, au anunţat oficialii companiei Trend Hospitality, care au asigurat consultanţa pentru acest parteneriat. Investiţia e cotată la circa 20 de milioane de euro. Lucrările de construcţie vor începe în luna iulie. Proiectul aparţine biroului Architect Service. Hotelul va activa la categoria de 4 stele. El va oferi 146 de camere, 4 săli de conferinţă, bar, spa şi spaţii comerciale.\n“Avem deja o poveste de succes în România, cu JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel, şi sunt sigur că o putem repeta şi pentru noul Courtyard Marriott. Suntem încântaţi de iniţiativa lui Gică Popescu de a dezvolta acest proiect şi aşteptăm cu nerabdare deschiderea oficială”- a precizat vicepreşedintele John Litzenberger. Gheorghe Popescu s-a arătat mulţumit că “după negocieri de lungă durată, managementul Marriott International a considerat că un nou proiect marca Marriott în România este oportun şi de viitor. Este un semn de încredere că putem realiza proiecte de lungă durată. Sunt încântat de parteneriatul cu Marriott International dar şi de faptul că vom dezvolta investiţia aici, în România”. Primul hotel al brandului Courtyard Marriott a fost deschis în 1983. Azi în întreaga lume activează 900 de astfel de complexe.

Tunya, spre marea mea surpriză, mi-a trecut prin faţă o antilopă de talie mare - un bushbuck. După o fracţiune de secundă a dispărut înapoi în pădure. În aceeaşi zi, seara, am mers în croazieră pe râul Zambezi şi am avut norocul să vedem o mare familie de hipopotami jucându-se în apă. Ajunşi înapoi la hotel, ne-am întâlnit cu o doamna din Marea Britanie, care ne-a povestit că a fost în programul cu leii în ziua precedentă şi că a trăit o experienţă unică. Atunci tata m-a întrebat dacă îmi mai surâde ideea şi am stabilit să mergem cu leii a doua zi, înainte de a pleca din Zimbabwe.\r\n\r\nNe-am sculat la 5. Excursia a început la 6 dimineaţa. Treaba e cu schepsis. E bine să faci lucrul acesta dimineaţa. Turiştii se întâlnesc cu leii după ce aceştia au vânat şi sunt mai obosiţi. Ne-am îndreptat spre parcul naţional unde se desfăşura plimbarea sau aventura. Aş rămâne la ultimul termen. Acolo am fost întâmpinaţi de organizatori. Timp de o oră ne-au dat toate instrucţiunile necesare: ce trebuie să facem şi cum să ne comportăm atunci când suntem în preajma leilor. În plus, a trebuit să semnăm că, dacă ni se întâmplă ceva, va fi pe propria răspundere. La sfârşit, ne-am împărţit în două grupuri şi am pornit. \r\n\r\nDupa ce am mers prin pădure vreo 10 minute, ne-am întalnit cu o pereche de lei superbi în vârstă de 14 luni. În acel moment ne-am oprit cu toţii şi am aşteptat sfaturi noi. Eram insoţiţi de 5 instructori. A trebuit să aşteptăm ca leii să se ridice pentru a-i urma. Trebuia să mergem întotdeauna în spatele leului, să vorbim tot timpul cu el ca să ştie că suntem acolo, să îl mângâiem pe spate înspre coadă, NICIODATA pe cap, şi să îl însoţim pe unde mergea el. Ni s-a pus şi un băţ în mână – ca si cum ar fi contat prea mult -, pe principiul ghemotocului de lână – ca să îi putem distrage atenţia în caz că animalul întorcea privirea înapoi. Dacă leul întorcea capul sau mârâia un pic, însemna că trebuia schimbată persoana care-l însoţea, pentru că leul nu o mai plăcea. Erau o leoaica şi un leu. Se mergea pe rând când cu unul, când cu altul şi unul dintre instructori îţi făcea poze pe măsură ce avansai. Pe unde mergea leul, era musai să fim şi noi. Astfel a trebuit să trecem prin noroi, bălţi, tufişuri, câte şi mai câte...
\r\n
Eşti cea mai curajoasă persoană din lume ?
\r\nUită şi de acest lucru. Chiar dacă îţi imaginezi aşa ceva. Destul de des, leii se aşezau iar noi trebuia să îi aşteptăm să se ridice ca să continuăm plimbarea. După vreo jumătate de oră de urmărit leii, aceştia s-au aşezat, iar instructorii ne-au spus că putem să facem poze. Dar trebuia să mergem în semicerc spre ei - niciodata direct, pentru că astfel s-ar fi considerat atacaţi. Important era să nu uiţi să „socializezi” în permanenţă cu leul care te-a adoptat, sau pe care tu l-ai adoptat. Greu de spus la cald cine este... şeful. După ce toată lumea şi-a făcut poze cu leoaica - eram un grup de 8 persoane de pe toate continentele -, leii s-au ridicat şi s-au deplasat mai departe până la o baltă, unde a fost punctul nostru de despărţire. Apoi am mai străbătut porţiuni de pădure unde ne-am întâlnit cu 3 pui de lei mici şi jucăuşi, de numai 7 luni. Remarcabile la leuţi erau labele mari pe care le aveau şi dorinţa şi mai mare de a se juca. Erau foarte pufoşi, blana lor asemănându-se cu cea a unei pisici siameze. Cu puii a fost mai simplu. Nu trebuia să ţinem cont de foarte multe reguli - doar să nu mergem înaintea lor şi să „conversăm” permanent cu ei.\r\n\r\nDupa o excursie de o oră pe urmele leilor prin junglă, am fost invitaţi să luăm micul dejun şi să schimbăm impresii cu ceilalţi participanţi. Majoritatea au fost foarte speriaţi de experienţa pe timpul desfăşurării sale, dar extrem de încântaţi că au avut curajul de a merge până la capăt. Recunosc, nu sunt cea mai curajoasă persoană din lume, dar după ce am mers câteva minute alături de un leu şi am văzut că sunt calmi, obişnuiţi cu oamenii, am prins încredere în mine şi mi-am făcut cu succes plimbarea turistică. Majoritatea însoţitorilor mei - mai de frică, mai de griji - au mers, au făcut câteva fotografii în fiecare loc, după care se retrăgeau. La final, am aflat de la ghizi că aceste excursii se organizează cu un scop foarte clar. Localnicii sunt preocupaţi să strângă fonduri pentru a derula un program de repopulare cu lei, a parcurilor naţionale din Africa. O leoaică nu poate avea grija de mai mult de doi pui şi din această cauză, mulţi lei mor în primele luni de naştere.\r\n\r\nDe asemenea, odată cu creşterea nevoii de terenuri pentru agricultura sau locuinţe, zonele în care leii trăiau s-au redus şi populaţia de lei este într-o continuu declin început din anii ‘50. Prin acest program, oamenii iau leii de care leoaicele nu pot avea grija - de obicei la vârsta de 7 zile - şi îi cresc, îi învaţă să vâneze, să trăiască în libertate, dar, cel mai important, să fie obişnuiţi cu ideea că oamenii nu le fac rău. În 2009, primii doi astfel de lei au fost lăsaţi în liberatate şi s-au integrat foarte bine în sălbăticie.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Zimbabwe1.jpg\" "\\"Zimbabwe1\\"")

O declaraţie de fericire
\r\nSenzaţia complexa pe care o ai atunci când mergi alături de regele junglei este destul de greu de redat în cuvinte. Trăieşti un soi de entuziasm amestecat cu frică, ba chiar cu iubire, atunci când îi vezi cât de elegant se mişcă în vecinătatea ta. Aici este necesara o precizare: leii cu care am mers nu erau sedaţi! După o astfel de excursie, nu poţi decât să te declari fericit că ai încercat. Este imposibil de descris cum această experienţă îţi pune zâmbetul pe buze şi cum acest zâmbet reapare ca din senin în viitoarele luni. E ceva magic. Este de ajuns să îţi aminteşti cât de frumos a fost şi să priveşti la pozele făcute, pentru a-ţi reveni rapid entuziasmul. Nu-ţi rămâne decât să începi, plin de nerăbdare, să proiectezi o nouă călătorie spre parcurile şi savanele africane.

Prin acest program, oamenii iau leii de care leoaicele nu pot avea grija - de obicei la vârsta de 7 zile - şi îi cresc, îi învaţă să vâneze, să trăiască în libertate, dar, cel mai important, să fie obişnuiţi cu ideea că oamenii nu le fac rău. În 2009, primii doi astfel de lei au fost lăsaţi în liberatate şi s-au integrat foarte bine în sălbăticie.

O declaraţie de fericire
\nSenzaţia complexa pe care o ai atunci când mergi alături de regele junglei este destul de greu de redat în cuvinte. Trăieşti un soi de entuziasm amestecat cu frică, ba chiar cu iubire, atunci când îi vezi cât de elegant se mişcă în vecinătatea ta. Aici este necesara o precizare: leii cu care am mers nu erau sedaţi! După o astfel de excursie, nu poţi decât să te declari fericit că ai încercat. Este imposibil de descris cum această experienţă îţi pune zâmbetul pe buze şi cum acest zâmbet reapare ca din senin în viitoarele luni. E ceva magic. Este de ajuns să îţi aminteşti cât de frumos a fost şi să priveşti la pozele făcute, pentru a-ţi reveni rapid entuziasmul. Nu-ţi rămâne decât să începi, plin de nerăbdare, să proiectezi o nouă călătorie spre parcurile şi savanele africane.

\r\n\r\n\r\nEric Faidy, Preşedintele Michelin pentru zona România şi Balcani, a oferit Sibiului, fostă Capitală culturală europeană în 2007, placheta care confirmă statutul de unic oraş din România care a primit 3 stele în Ghidul verde Michelin. Ceremonia, care l-a readus în prim plan pe primarul Klaus Johannis, a marcat sărbătorirea unui an de la lansarea Ghidului Verde Michelin România. Cu acest prilej Faidy a spus: “După ce au petrecut o mulţime de timp învăţând şi scriind despre România, descoperind că aceasta este într-adevăr o destinaţie minunată, scriitorii noştri au dorit să ofere cititorilor un instrument util de orientare, prin această colecţie cu cele mai interesante lucruri de văzut şi făcut în România. Sibiu este singurul oraş din România cotat de specialiştii Michelin la 3 stele, ceea ce înseamnă că «Mica Vienă» trebuie vizitată neapărat”. După cum se ştie o altă atracţie din zonă, cotată tot cu 3 stele, este Muzeul din Dumbrava Sibiului. Destinaţiile notate cu trei stele în Ghidul amintit trebuie ”vizitate neapărat”.\r\n\r\nPotrivit preşedintelui Michelin România, printre criteriile luate în considerare de specialişti s-au numărat prima impresie a vizitatorului, renumele şi popularitatea oraşului, valoarea artistică şi istorică a zonei, ori ospitalitatea locuitorilor.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nWIRELESS GRATUIT PE CITY TOUR\r\nS-a a relansat linia de transport Bucharest City Tour.

\r\n\r\nDupă şase ani de evaluări şi tatonări touroperatorul german Thomas Cook-Neckermann a revenit cu grupuri de turişti în staţiunile de pe Litoralul românesc. Potrivit reprezentanţilor companiei, cursele charter vor fi săptămânale, pentru perioada 29 mai – 2 octombrie 2012 şi vor ateriza la Constanţa. Conform estimărilor sunt aşteptaţi circa 5.000 de turişti din Germania, Austria, Polonia şi Cehia. Hotelurile solicitate de turiştii ce apelează la serviciile Thomas Cook-Neckermann oferă servicii superioare iar circa 1.000 dintre aceştia au optat pentru complexe ce practică sistemul all-inclusive. Printre hotelurile cu care colaborează pe litoralul românesc Thomas Cook-Nechemermann se numără Amiral, Comandor, Iaki şi Richmond din Mamaia, Europa din Eforie Nord, Cleopatra, Balada, Hora şi Saturn din staţiunea cu acelaşi nume, Doina din Neptun etc. Partenerul de travel din ţara noastră este agenţia Karpaten Turism condusă de Gheorghe Mărginean.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nANAT E ÎN TOP 10\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Airshow-Afis1.jpg\" "\\"Airshow")

Măsura va afecta într-un mod major industria turistică locală. Blagoy Ragin, preşedintele Asociaţiei bulgare a patronilor de hoteluri şi restaurante, a estimat că se vor înregistra pierderi de circa 300 de milioane de leva (circa 150 de milioane de euro) şi că se aşteaptă ca în jur de 20% din restaurante, cazinouri şi cluburi de noapte din Bulgaria să intre în faliment până în martie 2013.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n”DĂ CALITATE VIEŢII TALE!\r\n\r\nSolicită bonul fiscal!”. E sloganul unei noi campanii de educare fiscală a cetăţenilor iniţiată de Patronatul Român din Industria de Morărit, Panificaţie şi Produse Făinoase ROMPAN. “În fiecare an România pierde peste 15.000 miliarde de lei din cauza evaziunii fiscale la TVA, bani ce ar putea fi utilizaţi pentru creşterea calităţii serviciilor publice, a asigurărilor sociale, asistenţei medicale, a unor pensii decente pentru seniori etc. Mai bine de 60% din pâinea produsă şi comercializată în România este fără acte! Valoarea evaziunii fiscale este în jur de un miliard de euro pe an” – a arătat Aurel Popescu, preşedintele ROMPAN. Dragoş Paiu, Director Marketing la Groove Hour - agenţia de publicitate parteneră este convins că “aceasta campanie va conduce în primul rând la o educaţie fiscală a cetăţenilor, în folosul lor, la un sistem legislativ viabil şi eficient”.

Chiar dacă pare imposibil avem această convingere. „Echipajul” care a aterizat aici a adus sigur o mână de arhitecţi talentaţi. Ce a rămas, în urma lor ţine de un proiect SF.
Cum au accesat ei Fonduri europene asta ne scapă, dar cert este că autorităţile locale au pus în operă pe parcursul a doi ani – între 2009 şi 2010 peste 6 milioane de euro. Cea mai mare parte au provenit din fonduri structurale. Inaugurarea în forma actuală a avut loc în ianuarie 2010 iar noi putem spune cu mâna pe inimă, că nicăieri în altă parte din ţară nu se vede mai bine că banii au fost investiţi mai bine, mai folositor, pe un proiect unicat. Dincolo de elementele clasice în parte reamenajate la Salina Turda – amintim de cele 5 ocne subterane: Mina Tereza, Mina Anton, Mina Cojocneană, Mina Rudolf şi Mina Ghisela, care au trecut prin mai multe etape de modernizare -, amintim că romanii şi-au lăsat şi aici urmele semn că sarea era extrasă anterior anilor 274, după care s-au retras legiunile de aici. Alte urme: Pe peretele stâng al galeriei de coastă Franz Josef, înainte de pătrunderea galeriei în sare puteţi vedea următorul acrostih K.F.J Fu.Sb, care a fost descifrat astfel - „Regele Franz Josef, prinţ al Transilvaniei”.

Din compartimentele clasice puteţi vizita fostele mine Iosif, Tereza şi Rudolf, unde sunt foarte bine conservate utilaje medievale unice în Europa, cum ar fi fierăria, crivacul şi moara de sare. De asemenea, Altarul, cioplit în peretele de sare, Scara Bogaţilor (o scară lucrată filigranat în lemn), şi nu în ultimul rând Sala Ecourilor, unde efectele vocale sunt multiplicate de 20 ori. Noi nu le-am numărat dar le credem pe gazde pe cuvânt.\r\n\r\nŞocul viitorului vă întâmpină însă în marele palat subteran, unde puteţi călători cu două lifturi moderne ce fac şi ele parte din scenariul SF. Aici Salina Turda are amenajate săli de tratament, un amfiteatru pentru spectacole – cele ale unor formaţii simfonice ori vocale rămân memorabile -, săli de sport, dar surpriză şi o roată panoramică cu gondole, produsă în Ungaria, de unde puteţi admira stalactitele din sare. Este singura roată de acest gen montată în subteran. La fel de trendy este şi o... plimbare cu barca din fibră de sticlă, la 150 de metri în subteran, pe lacul cu o salinitate suprasaturată, a cărui apă s-a dovedit la fel de valoroasă pentru tratament. Ca să treceţi prin această aventură trebuie să urmaţi instrucţiunile necesare şi să vă protejaţi capul cu o cască „inginerească”. Este obligatoriu să te echipezi ca să poţi evita eventuale căderi de stalactite şi... de droburi de sare. Ei, nu-i chiar aşa de periculos ! Dar paza bună trece primejdia rea. Ca să fim sinceri, cele mai căutate de vizitatori sunt cele două lifturi, unicate probabil în Europa şi în lume, care îţi oferă panorame şi unghiuri senzaţionale pentru a efectua fotografii inedite. Au fost comandate şi produse în Spania. Salina Turda este un loc care pare că ţi se oferă firesc, natural. Această atmosferă au dorit cu siguranţă să creeze promotorii proiectului ambiental. După cum ne spunea însoţitorul nostru în 2010 Salina a primit circa 400.000 de vizitatori, iar anul trecut numărul lor s-a apropiat de 350.000.

Slovenia şi Portugalia sunt cei doi “actori” care promovează pe scena bătrânului continent, două oraşe - Maribor respectiv Guimaraes -, ce au fost desemnate de Uniunea Europeană să funcţioneze în acest an la rangul de „Capitale Culturale Europeane”.\r\n\r\nMaribor este al doilea oraş ca mărime din Slovenia şi se face remarcat prin viile cele mai vechi din lume, care cresc de-a lungul râului Drava de mai mult de patru secole. Maribor este, de asemenea, un centru cultural şi universitar de prestigiu, cu operă, teatru, muzee şi galerii de artă. În fiecare an ele sunt gazda mai multor evenimente artistice şi sunt destinaţii turistice din ce în ce mai frecventate. Printre atracţii se mai numără Primăria Veche (sec. XV), Catedrala Sf. Ioan Botezătorul (sec. XII), Biserica Sf. Magdalena (sec. XIII), etc. Guimaraes a fost prima capitala a Portugaliei. De aceea oraşul este recunoscut drept „Locul de naştere al naţiunii portugheze”, întrucat a fost aşezarea natală a primului rege al Portugaliei, Don Afonso Henrique.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Capitala-Guimaraes-2.jpg\" "\\"Capitala")
\r\nMulte evenimente importante ce au condus la dobândirea independenţei ţării au avut loc aici. Statutul istoric, gastronomia, biserica şi un pic de vervă contemporană se combină în acest oraş cu aer medieval care se situează, prin valorile sale arhitecturale şi culturale, pe lista Patrimoniului Universal. Fie că se numesc Muzeul Artei Naive Moderne, Muzeul Alberto Sampaio, Paqo dos Duques de Braganca ori Sao Miguel do Castelo, toate vorbesc despre zestrea istorică a unui oraş fermecător.\r\n\r\nDupă cum se ştie titlul de Capitală Culturală Europeană este acordat unui oraş din UE pe o perioadă de un an în timpul căreia acesta organizează o serie de festivalul şi manifestări culturale cu anvergură europeană şi reprezintă un adevărat catalizator pentru turismul din regiune şi pentru dezvoltarea socio-economică a respectivului oraş. În 2011 Capitalele culturale europene au fost oraşele Turku din Finlanda şi Tallin din Estonia, iar în 2013 nominalizările au fost făcute în contul oraşelor Marseille-Provence din Franţa şi Kosice din Slovacia. De la noi din ţară singura localitate care a deţinut titlul de Capitală Culturală Europeană, în 2007, a fost Sibiul.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Nu ştim cum ar reacţiona jurnaliştii noştri dacă un ministru român al turismului ar apărea la o conferinţă de presă însoţit de un... dinozaur. Ar curge probabil întrebări de genul - cât a costat dinozaurul, dacă a fost plătit din banii de la buget, adică din banii poporului, la ce foloseşte etc.
Astfel a apărut Roger Dow, preşedintele US Travel Association, la conferinţa de presă de la Natural History Museum din Los Angeles. Iar momentul de PR a fost unul de mare impact. Mii de fotografii, sute de filme şi de corespondenţe de la faţa locului. Doar ne aflăm în capitala mondială a filmului unde Hollywood este demult o marcă iar spectacolul face parte din realitatea cotidiană. Circa 500 de jurnalişti internaţionali invitaţi din peste 70 de ţări - ceea ce marchează o participare record -, au savurat momentul ce a constituit un fel de antecamera pentru alte evenimente de calibru. Aşa a debutat a 44-a ediţie a International POW WOW, aici la Los Angeles, iar spectacolul cu dinozaurul a creat un moment de relaxare, urmat de un bombardament informaţional foarte bine pus la punct. Mesajul principal cu care s-au întâlnit pe parcursul a patru zile circa 5.000 de profesionişti din industrie, care lucrează la circa 1.000 firme americane, a fost perceput la dimensiunile lui reale şi de către peste 1.200 de reprezentanţi ai lumii internaţionale a călătoriilor, printre care şi travel agenţi români.![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Los-Angeles-2.jpg\" "\\"Los")
Cum s-a născut o strategie
\r\nUn raport al US Travel Association pune în evidenţă impactul negativ asupra turismului american al lipsei promovării SUA în lume. Intitulat „The Lost Decade”, el relevă că în primul deceniu al secolului industria turistică americană a pierdut anual mai multe miliarde de dolari. Consecinţa cea mai dramatică – au dispărut zeci de mii de locuri de muncă. SUA este singura ţară puternic industrializată din lume care nu a avut până acum nici un program naţional de promovare turistică. Nu are nici un minister al turismului. Cu atât mai mult demersul US Travel Association de susţine o strategie pentru BRAND USA, se conturează ca un succes economic. BRAND USA s-a lansat oficial pe 1 mai, prin campanii agresive pe televiziuni, social media, internet, outdoor şi print.
\r\nCe a făcut Barack Obama ?
\r\nLa conferinţa de presă Roger Dow, liderul US Travel Association a subliniat faptul că preşedintele Barack Obama a aprobat documentul ce confinţeşte susţinerea totală din partea preşedinţiei şi guvernului pentru relansarea industriei turistice. Într-un mesaj video, transmis cu acest prilej participanţilor Obama spunea următoarele: „Vreau ca America să fie destinaţia turistică numărul 1 a lumii. Tocmai acesta a fost scopul întâlnirii ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Los-Angeles-3.jpg\" "\\"Los")
mele cu oamenii de afaceri, lideri în domeniul turismului. De a identifica mijloace mai eficiente pentru a ne vinde mai bine destinaţiile turistice şi pentru a fi siguri că vizitatorii străini vor primi toate informaţiile de care au nevoie. Suntem hotărâţi să accelerăm procesarea şi acordarea vizelor pentru ţări ca Brazilia şi China, pentru ca tot mai mulţi oameni să vină şi să-şi cheltuiască banii la noi. În ceea ce mă priveşte voi face tot ce ţine de mine pentru ca acest proces să fie mai sigur pentru cei care ne vizitează şi ca împreună să putem spune lumii, că Statele Unite sunt deschise pentru business”. Desigur pieţele ţintă anunţate China şi Brazilia, unde serviciile de procesare a vizelor s-au extins cu 40%, sunt secondate de alţi frunizori cu tradiţie cum sunt Marea Britanie, Germania, Franţa, Mexic, Japonia şi mai nou India.
Vote Travel, mai mult decât o caravană
\r\nRoger Dow a anunţat că prima campanie de brand din istoria Statelor Unite se numeşte chiar BRAND USA. Ea e susţinută printr-un parteneriat public-privat, de o entitate de marketing ce va promova circulaţia internaţională spre SUA. International Pow Wow (IPW) de la Los Angeles a fost locul şi momentul ideal pentru lansarea şi prezentarea strategiei ce se ascunde în spatele Brand USA. „În timp ce alte ţări şi-au promovat de-a lungul anilor produsele turistice, cu perseverenţă şi agresivitate, SUA au tăcut. Este momentul să îndepărtăm barierele, să facilităm accesul la călătorii şi să convingem lumea să vină în SUA.

Vrem să o implicăm şi mai mult în deciziile de dezvoltare a turismului american. Pentru aceasta am creat o nouă structură - Vote Travel, dublat de site-ul Vote Travel org. Conceptul include o caravană de autobuze ce se deplasează în ţară pentru a cere sprijinul politicienilor şi candidaţilor pentru creşterea industriei în care lucrăm. Dezvoltarea rapidă a turismului este soluţia clară la combaterea şomajului cu care ne confruntăm. Turismul este un business pentru oameni iar POW WOW a demonstrat că nimic nu este mai puternic decât interacţiunea directă”.
Un efort unit
\r\nLa rândul său Jim Evans, preşedintele şi CEO al BRAND USA, a subliniat că substanţa campaniei este concentrată în jurul mesajului „50 de state, 5 teritorii! Un efort unit!”. Întreaga echipă de la BRAND USA ţinteşte prin eforturile făcute să redea lumii SUA ca destinaţia turistică nr. 1. „Ştim că nu putem face acest lucru fără sprijinul tuturor participanţilor la POW WOW. Vom căuta în continuare să unim eforturile noastre de marketing ca niciodată până acum, pentru a încuraja vizitatorii internaţionali să transmită mai departe mesajele despre oportunităţile nesfârşite pe care le oferim. Vrem să reanimăm relaţia lor de dragoste cu ţara noastră. Fireşte, e nevoie de o nouă poveste de dragoste. Trebuie să învăţăm să spunem din nou - Bună ziua, hello, veniţi şi la noi!”
\r\nAşterne covorul la picioarele lumii
\r\nLa o altă conferinţă de presă John Bryson, secretar al Departamentului de Comerţ, şi Ken Salazar, secretar la Departamentul Afacerilor Interne au arătat că Strategia guvernamentală de promovare a turismului SUA se implementează sub directa coordonare prezindenţială. „Noi ştim că turismul este vital pentru economia americană”. Cât de vital? „Datele din luna aprilie 2012, arată că turismul intern a crescut cu 8,1% în 2011 faţă de 2010, creîndu-se în plus peste 100.000 de locuri de muncă. Aproape 62 de milioane de turişti internaţionali au contribuit cu peste 153 de miliarde de dolari la încasările economiei americane, făcând ca turismul să devină activitatea de export numărul 1 a Americii. Dacă ne referim la anul în curs putem arăta că, de exemplu, în luna februarie a anului 2012 am încasat peste 13 miliarde de dolari, cu 14% mai mult decât în luna similară a anului trecut”.\r\n\r\nCei doi au comunicat şi rezultatele sintetizate într-o cercetare efectuată de către prestigiosul McKinsey Global Institute. Conform specialiştilor acestuia sectoarele leisure şi hospitality, sunt componentele cheie ale călătoriilor spre State. Industria de profil este la această oră al cincilea angajator în SUA. Şi lucrurile nu se opresc aici. În această decadă vor apărea aproape 3 milioane de noi locuri de muncă generate de industria turistică, ceea ce va clasa turismul pe locul 3 în privinţa absorţiei de forţă de muncă. „Mesajul american este foarte simplu: „Aşterne covorul de bun venit la picioarele lumii!”, pentru că vrem ca America să fie destinaţie numărul 1 a lumii” – au conchis Bryson şi Salazar.

Maribor este, de asemenea, un centru cultural şi universitar de prestigiu, cu operă, teatru, muzee şi galerii de artă. În fiecare an ele sunt gazda mai multor evenimente artistice şi sunt destinaţii turistice din ce în ce mai frecventate. Printre atracţii se mai numără Primăria Veche (sec. XV), Catedrala Sf. Ioan Botezătorul (sec. XII), Biserica Sf. Magdalena (sec. XIII), etc. Guimaraes a fost prima capitala a Portugaliei. De aceea oraşul este recunoscut drept „Locul de naştere al naţiunii portugheze”, întrucat a fost aşezarea natală a primului rege al Portugaliei, Don Afonso Henrique.\n\nMulte evenimente importante ce au condus la dobândirea independenţei ţării au avut loc aici. Statutul istoric, gastronomia, biserica şi un pic de vervă contemporană se combină în acest oraş cu aer medieval care se situează, prin valorile sale arhitecturale şi culturale, pe lista Patrimoniului Universal. Fie că se numesc Muzeul Artei Naive Moderne, Muzeul Alberto Sampaio, Paqo dos Duques de Braganca ori Sao Miguel do Castelo, toate vorbesc despre zestrea istorică a unui oraş fermecător.\n\nDupă cum se ştie titlul de Capitală Culturală Europeană este acordat unui oraş din UE pe o perioadă de un an în timpul căreia acesta organizează o serie de festivalul şi manifestări culturale cu anvergură europeană şi reprezintă un adevărat catalizator pentru turismul din regiune şi pentru dezvoltarea socio-economică a respectivului oraş. În 2011 Capitalele culturale europene au fost oraşele Turku din Finlanda şi Tallin din Estonia, iar în 2013 nominalizările au fost făcute în contul oraşelor Marseille-Provence din Franţa şi Kosice din Slovacia. De la noi din ţară singura localitate care a deţinut titlul de Capitală Culturală Europeană, în 2007, a fost Sibiul.\n\nALEX BARBU\n\n\n\n

În 2015 vom avea Aeroport internaţional la Adunaţii Copăceni\r\n\r\nUn proiect mai vechi, reformulat şi dimensionat la standardele moderne de azi, a fost anunţat de către Infra Group, companie având ca asociaţi Romstrade şi Blue Air. Aceasta va construi un aeroport privat pe o suprafaţă de peste 255 de hectare, la Adunaţii Copăceni (judeţul Giurgiu), la 20 de kilometri Sud de Bucureşti. Consultanţa financiară este asigurată de către Lufthansa Consulting, una dintre cele mai mari companii de specialitate în domeniul aviaţiei la nivel mondial. Înfiinţată în anul 1998, ca filială independentă a Lufthansa Aviation Group aceasta ofera servicii şi soluţii la nivel mondial în industria transportului aerian. Prezent la Bucureşti Marnix Groot, directorul Lufthansa Consulting, a subliniat că „proiectul este fezabil iar un aeroport în zona de sud a metropolei, va contribui pozitiv la redimensionarea economică a zonei. Construcţia aeroportului va dura 30 de luni de la momentul obţinerii autorizaţiei de construcţie. În faza finală investiţia se va ridica la circa 200-220 de milioane de euro”.\r\nLa rândul său, Ion Tache, primarul comunei Adunaţii Copăceni a arătat că prin construirea “Aeroportului Internaţional Bucureşti Sud” (desenat iniţial prin anii 1980), cel de-al doilea aeroport de anvergură al Capitalei, „va exista un impact economic nu numai în localitate ci şi în Giurgiu cel mai mic judeţ şi unul dintre cele mai sărace din ţara noastră. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Airport-Adunatii-007.jpg\" "\\"Airport")
Vorbim de un proiect privat susţinut de companiile investitorului român Nelu Iordache, dar încă de pe acum există investitori străini atraşi de oportunităţile de afaceri din zonă. Estimăm că vor fi create circa 2.000 de locuri de muncă. Vorbim de o infrastructură de conexiuni, cu canalul fluvial de pe Argeş la care se vor relua lucrările, cu linii rutiere şi de metrou, toate urmând să ofere o altă proiecţie zonei”.\r\nGheorghe Răcaru, directorul de Dezvoltare al Grupului de companii implicate în proiect, spune că „noul aeroport va fi construit în mai multe etape. El e proiectat cu o singură pistă şi pentru a găzdui în general aeronave de categoria C, destinate pentru zboruri pe distanţe scurte şi medii în spaţiul european cât şi ţările vecine acestuia. Vorbim în general de Boeing B737 şi Airbus A320, cu capacităţi între 120 şi 180 pasageri, dar va fi posibilă şi operarea unor aeronave de capacităţi mai mari, atat de pasageri cât şi cargo. Construcţia va beneficia de 10-14 burdufe iar în prima fază terminalul va putea primi anual circa 2 milioane de pasageri. Este primul proiect aeroportuar din România care beneficiază de expertiza Lufthansa Consulting. Obiectivul beneficiază de o poziţionare foarte bună, la numai 14 kilometri de Centura Bucureştiului, la 22 de kilometri de Bucureşti, la 40 de oraşul Giurgiu şi, lucru deloc de neglijat, la 50 de kilometri de oraşul Russe din Bulgaria. Investiţia se va dezvolta în 3-4 etape, iar media de amortizare pentru un asemenea tip de aranjament este estimată pentru 15-17 ani.” De asemenea directorul Răcaru a mai precizat că prin construirea acestui aeroport internaţional vor apărea şi alte investiţii.

Aceasta va construi un aeroport privat pe o suprafaţă de peste 255 de hectare, la Adunaţii Copăceni (judeţul Giurgiu), la 20 de kilometri Sud de Bucureşti. Consultanţa financiară este asigurată de către Lufthansa Consulting, una dintre cele mai mari companii de specialitate în domeniul aviaţiei la nivel mondial. Înfiinţată în anul 1998, ca filială independentă a Lufthansa Aviation Group aceasta ofera servicii şi soluţii la nivel mondial în industria transportului aerian. Prezent la Bucureşti Marnix Groot, directorul Lufthansa Consulting, a subliniat că „proiectul este fezabil iar un aeroport în zona de sud a metropolei, va contribui pozitiv la redimensionarea economică a zonei. Construcţia aeroportului va dura 30 de luni de la momentul obţinerii autorizaţiei de construcţie. În faza finală investiţia se va ridica la circa 200-220 de milioane de euro”.\nLa rândul său, Ion Tache, primarul comunei Adunaţii Copăceni a arătat că prin construirea “Aeroportului Internaţional Bucureşti Sud” (desenat iniţial prin anii 1980), cel de-al doilea aeroport de anvergură al Capitalei, „va exista un impact economic nu numai în localitate ci şi în Giurgiu cel mai mic judeţ şi unul dintre cele mai sărace din ţara noastră. Vorbim de un proiect privat susţinut de companiile investitorului român Nelu Iordache, dar încă de pe acum există investitori străini atraşi de oportunităţile de afaceri din zonă. Estimăm că vor fi create circa 2.000 de locuri de muncă. Vorbim de o infrastructură de conexiuni, cu canalul fluvial de pe Argeş la care se vor relua lucrările, cu linii rutiere şi de metrou, toate urmând să ofere o altă proiecţie zonei”.\nGheorghe Răcaru, directorul de Dezvoltare al Grupului de companii implicate în proiect, spune că „noul aeroport va fi construit în mai multe etape. El e proiectat cu o singură pistă şi pentru a găzdui în general aeronave de categoria C, destinate pentru zboruri pe distanţe scurte şi medii în spaţiul european cât şi ţările vecine acestuia. Vorbim în general de Boeing B737 şi Airbus A320, cu capacităţi între 120 şi 180 pasageri, dar va fi posibilă şi operarea unor aeronave de capacităţi mai mari, atat de pasageri cât şi cargo. Construcţia va beneficia de 10-14 burdufe iar în prima fază terminalul va putea primi anual circa 2 milioane de pasageri. Este primul proiect aeroportuar din România care beneficiază de expertiza Lufthansa Consulting. Obiectivul beneficiază de o poziţionare foarte bună, la numai 14 kilometri de Centura Bucureştiului, la 22 de kilometri de Bucureşti, la 40 de oraşul Giurgiu şi, lucru deloc de neglijat, la 50 de kilometri de oraşul Russe din Bulgaria. Investiţia se va dezvolta în 3-4 etape, iar media de amortizare pentru un asemenea tip de aranjament este estimată pentru 15-17 ani.” De asemenea directorul Răcaru a mai precizat că prin construirea acestui aeroport internaţional vor apărea şi alte investiţii. Două dintre ele este staţia de alimentare cu combustibil, respectiv un hotel care se află în stadiu avansat de finalizare. Cel din urmă va avea 60 de locuri, un restaurant self, şi va activa la un standard de 4 stele. El va fi destinat turiştilor dar şi angajaţilor companiei.

Valoarea celor două loturi este fabuloasă: în timp jucătorii lui Atletico Madrid pregătiţi de Diego Simeone valorează 179.500.000 de euro, elevii lui Bielsa sunt cotaţi \"la pachet\" la circa 141.700.000 de euro. Dincolo de spectacolul sportiv de pe stadion, unde au au fost de faţă numeroase personalităţi publice şi ale sportului, zilele de 8-10 mai au marcat şi un boom turistic care s-a regăsit în încasările transportatorilor, hotelierilor, restaurantelor, barurilor, cafenelelor agenţiilor de turism şi comercianţilor. 9 mai a fost cea mai aglomerată zi din istoria Aeroportului Internaţional Henri Coandă Bucureşti unde au aterizat 63 de curse charter, de la Bilbao şi Madrid, care au adus circa 13.000 de suporteri ai echipelor finaliste. Ele au fost “parcate” pe o lungime pe 2 kilometri. Cifra este cu 16% mai mare decât a celor veniţi pe curse regulate.

Nişte funcţionăraşi europeni, care nu prea aveau de lucru, s-au gândit că ar fi bine să promoveze o idee... genială. Din lipsă de altceva, după ce au pritocit la statistici şi analize ar fi constatat că sistemul All Inclusive reprezintă un mare pericol pentru bătrânul continent. Cică, drept urmare, nu ar fi sănătos pentru natură dar nici pentru turist care se îmbuibă şi bea până plesneşte atunci când pleacă în asemenea resorturi de vacanţă. Nemaipomeniţii funcţionăraşi au sugerat Comisiei Europene să interzică hotelurilor practicarea sistemului de cazare... all inclusive. Chipurile, prin această măsură s-ar reduce şi... deşeurile organice.\r\n\r\nBăieţii ăştia vorbesc ca să se afle în treabă. Majoritatea sistemelor all- inclusive nu se regăsesc în Europa ci în ţări din Africa, Asia, prin Americi, respectiv, în ultimii ani pe companiile de croaziere. Turismul de familie s-a deplasat masiv spre complexele hoteliere cu sisteme... all-inclusive. Hai să spunem lucrurilor pe nume: all-inclusive este un complex de servicii iar alimentaţia şi băuturile sunt „floarea pusă la urechea turismului”. Atractivitatea pachetului este dată de entertainment (spectacole pe tot parcursul zilei de exemplu), de programele de relaxare, de sport (piscine, terenuri, spa, tratamente, bowling, tenis, tir etc) de facilităţile pentru familii şi copii, de surprizele oferite la cameră. Cică pentru ca să-l practici trebuie să investeşti masiv în toate acestea. Incapabili, în mare parte, să facă faţă unui asemenea sistem, europenii se ascund şi azi după uşa turismului de... lux, unde se oferă ... fiţe scumpe, pe care le regăsiţi deseori la un nivel strălucitor şi accesibil în complexele de tip all-inclusive.\r\n\r\nCică am prins şi noi din zbor chestia asta. Deşi nu ne-a întrebat nimeni, ne dăm cu părerea că ar fi bine să se interzică. N-am avea niciun deranj. Doar în cîteva hoteluri de pe litoral patronii români s-au „chinuit” să-l introducă. Un lider de organizaţie a sărit deunăzi, sus şi tare că all-inclusiv-ul nu e sănătos, produce dezechilibre alimentare, duce la obezitate (ei aş!), limitează posibilitatea de mişcare a celor care vin la distracţie şi odihnă. Ce mai, e toxic! Bazaconiile au fost amplificate şi purtate mai departe un mercenar de la o agenţie de presă. Să renunţăm la all-inclusive? Păi, nicio pierdere, că nici nu l-am introdus! Cică, all- inclusiv-ul are şi un secret. Se bucură de succes dacă se practică în complexe cu grad de ocupare înalt. Care cunosc o circulaţie permanentă, nu două luni pe an, sau în weekend. Drept urmare, gafa liderului a fost de proporţii. Mai ales că Mohammad Murad, este medic la bază şi unul dintre marii investitori în turismul românesc.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nDoriţi să citiţi toată revista?

FINALA UEFA: Fiesta fotbalului la Bucureşti\r\n\r\nCirca 30.000 de suporteri străini au participat pe 9 mai la Finala UEFA Europa League care s-a desfăşurat pentru prima dată la Bucureşti. Atletico Madrid şi-a adjudecat trofeul cu scorul de 3-0 în faţa echipei Athletico Bilbao. Valoarea celor două loturi este fabuloasă: în timp jucătorii lui Atletico Madrid pregătiţi de Diego Simeone valorează 179.500.000 de euro, elevii lui Bielsa sunt cotaţi \"la pachet\" la circa 141.700.000 de euro. Dincolo de spectacolul sportiv de pe stadion, unde au au fost de faţă numeroase personalităţi publice şi ale sportului, zilele de 8-10 mai au marcat şi un boom turistic care s-a regăsit în încasările transportatorilor, hotelierilor, restaurantelor, barurilor, cafenelelor agenţiilor de turism şi comercianţilor. 9 mai a fost cea mai aglomerată zi din istoria Aeroportului Internaţional Henri Coandă Bucureşti unde au aterizat 63 de curse charter, de la Bilbao şi Madrid, care au adus circa 13.000 de suporteri ai echipelor finaliste. Ele au fost “parcate” pe o lungime pe 2 kilometri. Cifra este cu 16% mai mare decât a celor veniţi pe curse regulate. Conform Companiei Naţionale a Aeroporturilor Bucureşti (CNAB), alte sute de suporteri au aterizat pe aeroportul Bucureşti Băneasa – Aurel Vlaicu. Cifra totală acreditată se ridică la peste 25.000 de suporteri. Alte câteva mii au apelat la transportul rutier.\r\n\r\nDespre importanţa finalei cel mai titrat antrenor român, Mircea Lucescu, spunea:“Am asistat la un spectacol de înaltă ţinută din toate punctele de vedere. Este succesul federaţiilor din estul Europei, care au decis să-l susţină pe Michel Platini. Este meritul lui Mircea Sandu de a fi reuşit să ajungă printre oamenii importanţi din UEFA şi să obţină ceva. Este extraordinar de important pentru fotbalul şi pentru turismul românesc. Şi celebrul sportiv, Gheorghe Hagi, consideră Finala UEFA a fost un prilej de bună propagandă pentru fotbalul-spectacol: \"Trebuie să fim fericiţi că am găzduit această finală, că am putut admira două echipe din ţara cu cel mai elegant fotbal”. În ceea ce priveşte încasările conform datelor preliminare (furnizate de membrii săi) Federaţia Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc, apreciază că gradul de ocupare a hotelurilor din capitală, care au înregistrat cel mai mare număr de turişti străini, într-un sejur mediu de 2,5 zile, a atins 95%. Încasările din cazare s-au ridicat la aproximativ 3 milioane de euro iar cele revenite din mâncare, băutură şi cumpărături au fost aproximativ de 6 milioane de euro. Excelentă a fost organizarea evenimentului de către primăria Capitalei, condusă de Sorin Oprescu dar şi Federaţia Română de Fotbal, condusă de Mircea Sandu. Ambele instituţii au realizat că manifestarea este o oportunitate unică pentru promovarea României şi a Bucureştiului.\r\n\r\nOrganizatorii au oferit suporterilor spanioli, care nu au mai avut cum să-şi procure biletele de intrare, două locuri de întâlnire “personalizate”. Astfel în Piaţa \"George Enescu\" au vizionat meciul de stadionul Naţional Arena, fanii echipei Atletico Madrid, iar in Piaţa Constituţiei s-au aflat fanii lui Athletico Bilbao. Cei mai mulţi suporteri s-au întâlnit însă în Centrul Istoric al Bucureştiului, unde au luat cu asalt cele peste 150 de restaurante, baruri şi cafenele. Au curs fluvii de bere şi s-au pus în operă zeci de mii de platouri cu mâncare. Ca o picanterie, vreo 400 de suporteri iberici, susţinători ai echipei Bilbao, s-au rătăcit în Europa. Ei şi-au făcut rezervări de bilete spre Budapesta în loc de Bucureşti. Drept urmare fost nevoiţi să se descurce pentru a ajunge la Bucureşti, unde au fost însă recompensaţi de o atmosferă incendiară. S-a întâmplat şi la case mai mari.\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON
\n\n\nEric Faidy, Preşedintele Michelin pentru zona România şi Balcani, a oferit Sibiului, fostă Capitală culturală europeană în 2007, placheta care confirmă statutul de unic oraş din România care a primit 3 stele în Ghidul verde Michelin. Ceremonia, care l-a readus în prim plan pe primarul Klaus Johannis, a marcat sărbătorirea unui an de la lansarea Ghidului Verde Michelin România. Cu acest prilej Faidy a spus: “După ce au petrecut o mulţime de timp învăţând şi scriind despre România, descoperind că aceasta este într-adevăr o destinaţie minunată, scriitorii noştri au dorit să ofere cititorilor un instrument util de orientare, prin această colecţie cu cele mai interesante lucruri de văzut şi făcut în România. Sibiu este singurul oraş din România cotat de specialiştii Michelin la 3 stele, ceea ce înseamnă că «Mica Vienă» trebuie vizitată neapărat”. După cum se ştie o altă atracţie din zonă, cotată tot cu 3 stele, este Muzeul din Dumbrava Sibiului. Destinaţiile notate cu trei stele în Ghidul amintit trebuie ”vizitate neapărat”.\n\nPotrivit preşedintelui Michelin România, printre criteriile luate în considerare de specialişti s-au numărat prima impresie a vizitatorului, renumele şi popularitatea oraşului, valoarea artistică şi istorică a zonei, ori ospitalitatea locuitorilor.\n\n \n\nWIRELESS GRATUIT PE CITY TOUR\n\nS-a a relansat linia de transport Bucharest City Tour.

Ceremonia, care l-a readus în prim plan pe primarul Klaus Johannis, a marcat sărbătorirea unui an de la lansarea Ghidului Verde Michelin România. Cu acest prilej Faidy a spus: “După ce au petrecut o mulţime de timp învăţând şi scriind despre România, descoperind că aceasta este într-adevăr o destinaţie minunată, scriitorii noştri au dorit să ofere cititorilor un instrument util de orientare, prin această colecţie cu cele mai interesante lucruri de văzut şi făcut în România. Sibiu este singurul oraş din România cotat de specialiştii Michelin la 3 stele, ceea ce înseamnă că «Mica Vienă» trebuie vizitată neapărat”. După cum se ştie o altă atracţie din zonă, cotată tot cu 3 stele, este Muzeul din Dumbrava Sibiului. Destinaţiile notate cu trei stele în Ghidul amintit trebuie ”vizitate neapărat”.\r\n\r\nPotrivit preşedintelui Michelin România, printre criteriile luate în considerare de specialişti s-au numărat prima impresie a vizitatorului, renumele şi popularitatea oraşului, valoarea artistică şi istorică a zonei, ori ospitalitatea locuitorilor.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nWIRELESS GRATUIT PE CITY TOUR\r\nS-a a relansat linia de transport Bucharest City Tour.

BULGARIA SPUNE STOP FUMATULUI\r\n\r\nDe la începutul acestei luni în Bulgaria a fost interzis fumatul în spaţiile publice, inclusiv în restaurante, baruri, cafenele şi hoteluri. Măsura va afecta într-un mod major industria turistică locală. Blagoy Ragin, preşedintele Asociaţiei bulgare a patronilor de hoteluri şi restaurante, a estimat că se vor înregistra pierderi de circa 300 de milioane de leva (circa 150 de milioane de euro) şi că se aşteaptă ca în jur de 20% din restaurante, cazinouri şi cluburi de noapte din Bulgaria să intre în faliment până în martie 2013.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n”DĂ CALITATE VIEŢII TALE!\r\n\r\nSolicită bonul fiscal!”. E sloganul unei noi campanii de educare fiscală a cetăţenilor iniţiată de Patronatul Român din Industria de Morărit, Panificaţie şi Produse Făinoase ROMPAN. “În fiecare an România pierde peste 15.000 miliarde de lei din cauza evaziunii fiscale la TVA, bani ce ar putea fi utilizaţi pentru creşterea calităţii serviciilor publice, a asigurărilor sociale, asistenţei medicale, a unor pensii decente pentru seniori etc. Mai bine de 60% din pâinea produsă şi comercializată în România este fără acte! Valoarea evaziunii fiscale este în jur de un miliard de euro pe an” – a arătat Aurel Popescu, preşedintele ROMPAN. Dragoş Paiu, Director Marketing la Groove Hour - agenţia de publicitate parteneră este convins că “aceasta campanie va conduce în primul rând la o educaţie fiscală a cetăţenilor, în folosul lor, la un sistem legislativ viabil şi eficient”.

\r\n\r\nLesne de înţeles că Marshal Garden este proprietatea omului de afaceri Ion Antonescu, fondatorul uneia dintre primele agenţii de turism private – Marshal Turism. După ce a fost secretar de stat la Ministerul Culturii Antonescu, căruia i se spune Mareşalul (de aici şi denumirea companiei sale), a rămas devotat lumii artistice, dedicându-se unor proiecte care i-a readus în prim plan pe marii artişti ai scenelor româneşti. Ce are asta de-a face cu industria turistică în general? Păi are? În cazul de faţă s-a produs o fuziune culturală şi comercială. În deceniul trecut aceasta se întâmpla la primul hotel Marshal ce intra în operare după o amplă operaţiune de modernizare. Amplasat cum nu se poate mai bine, în spatele Teatrului Naţional, el a devenit fieful actorilor. Antonescu declara atunci că a dorit să refacă o parte din atmosfera boemă a Bucureştilor de altădată, iar fotografiile pe care le puteţi vedea pe pereţii restauratului şi cafenelei, pline de autografe şi dedicaţii dovedesc din plin că a reuşit.\r\n\r\nPovestea continuă, cum era de aşteptat, şi la noul hotel amplasat în zona Dorobanţi în vecinătatea blocului Prager şi a ASE. Marshal Garden sugerează ideea unui spaţiu aerisit rezolvat prin soluţii de design neconvenţional, sugerând în mod direct, la parter şi la etajele dedicate sălilor de restaurant şi de conferinţe, conturul unei scene deschise. Sentimentul este accentuat şi de pereţii de sticlă al sălilor care se glisează oferind pe perioada sezonului cald un excelent spaţiu de terase. Hotelul are o capacitate medie cu 63 de camere, dintre care 4 duble Standard, 55 duble Superior şi 4 camere duble DeLuxe. Printr-un aranjament de conectare, la cerere se pot obţine şi Family Suite. Marshal Garden este bine echipat cu săli de conferinţe, Panoramic, la etaj, cu o capacitate totală de 400 de locuri, respectiv Safir, la parter cu 70 de locuri, ideală pentru întâlniri de afaceri ori training-uri. De testat, Ristorante Danieli (numele este inspirat de cel al fiului lui Ion Antonescu). Show-ul gastronomic este asigurat de „actorii” – Baby calamari şi muşchi de vită Argentina, servit pe piatră de rocă încinsă, ori de Tagliatelle cu sos cremos de ciuperci şi strufe negre. Spectacolul vizual este completat de vitraliile unice, fiecare redând tematica unei poveşti. Loc al relaxării este şi Ceainăria, un spaţiu dedicat amatorilor de asemenea licori, unde serviciul este disponibil gratuit tot timpul zilei. La propunerea Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET ROMÂNIA, acest loc, particularizat şi prin colecţie de 50 de ceainice, ar putea să se numească în viitor Prinţul Charles.\r\n\r\n\r\nCe mai trebuie de ştiut? Dacă iniţial investiţia era cotată la circa 3 milioane de euro, în final ea a depăşit 10 milioane. Construcţia hotelului a durat mai mult, cu circa 4 ani, dificultăţile fiind accentuate de către criza economică. Pe parcursul timpului Ion Antonescu a căutat să identifice cele mai noi concepte şi să le „toarne” în acest hotel. „Am circulat peste tot şi mi-am notat cele mai bune idei pe care le-am văzut în marile hoteluri din lume. La ele am adăugat ideile mele şi pot să spun că acest hotel are elemente unice, care nu se mai regăsesc îmbinate astfel nicăieri în lume” – arată Ion Antonescu.\r\n\r\n\r\nŞi artiştii? N-aveţi nicio grijă. Şi acest hotel – unde puteţi admira lobby-ul cu o cascadă de culori răcoroase -, a păstrat tradiţia şi facilităţile oferite de primul Hotel Marshal. De aceea să nu vă miraţi dacă trecând pe la Marshal Garden vă veţi intersecta cu Marin Moraru, Mircea Albulescu, Vladimir Găitan, Ion Dichiseanu, Ilinca Tomoroveanu, Florina Cercel etc. Mai mult decât o plăcere unică.\r\n\r\nANGELA SIMION & ALEX BARBU','MARSHAL GARDEN UN HOTEL CA O SCENA DE TEATRU, INDUSTRIE HOTELIERA NR.99','','inherit','open','open','','1342-revision-2','','','2012-07-19 16:35:15','2012-07-19 14:35:15','',1342,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2012/07/19/1342-revision-2/',0,'revision','',0),(1348,1,'2012-07-19 16:42:20','2012-07-19 14:42:20','ADINA RENŢEA: „Cultura este ca un copil care creşte sub ochii părinţilor, iar aceştia sunt vizitatorii şi turiştii !”\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Director-Adina-Retea.jpg\" "\\"Director")
\r\n\r\nUn interviu, o expoziţie, o călătorie. Provocări. Împreună cu Adina Renţea, directorul general al Muzeului Naţional Cotroceni ne întoarcem prin tunelul timpului în urmă cu 200 de ani.

O istorie fascinantă fixată pe pânză, hârtie, fotografii, de un artist unic. Expoziţia o puteţi vizita până pe 10 august. Interviul îl parcurgeţi acum.
\r\n- Carol Popp de Szathmari este cunoscut la noi mai mult ca pictor. Dacă ne-am opri în călătoria noastră printre culori, în faţa a doar cinci lucrări, care ar fi selecţia dumneavoastră?\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Carol-Popp-de-Szatmary-autopotret.jpg\" "\\"Carol")
- E o misiune dificilă. Sentimental vorbind mă simt ataşată de portretele domnitorului Alexandru Ioan Cuza şi ale doamnei Elena Cuza, de cele ale domnitorului Carol I şi principesei Elisabeta, de lucrările ce redau Palatul Cotroceni, de tabloul „Cuplu călare pe fundal montan (Rucăr)”, de acuarela „Taraful Ochi Albi” ori de seria fotografică „Costumes de la Roumanie”, deţinută de Biblioteca Academiei Române.
\r\n - Aţi simţit nevoia de a recupera şi repune în valoare activitatea sa fotografică? E îndeajuns de cunoscută şi apreciată de contemporani?\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Szatmary-foto-Rezbel.jpg\" "\\"Szatmary")
- Activitatea sa fotografică a fost una de pionierat, şi în expoziţie figurează atât prima fotografie realizată de artist, cât şi fotografii pe care Szathmari le-a făcut în diferitele etape ale creaţiei sale, prezentând diverse tipologii umane (domni şi doamne din înalta societate, negustori, ofiţeri, soldaţi etc.), fotografii tip carte de vizită, specifice acelei perioade de început a fotografiei. Carol Popp de Szathmari a fost primul care a realizat imagini panoramice ale oraşului Bucureşti, ne referim la anii 1870, gândiţi-vă, şi a căutat unghiuri care să îi permită o vedere de ansamblu, fapt pentru care mergea adesea în Turnul Colţei, pe Dealul Mitropoliei, pe Dealul Spirii sau pe Dealul Filaret. Însă, dincolo de importanţa documentară a imaginilor, Szathmari a reuşit să facă nişte fotografii valoroase în sine, care transmit atmosfera din Ţara Românească a secolului al XIX-lea. De altfel, în istoria mondială, la capitolul fotografie de război, România se află pe primul loc, şi acest lucru i se datorează tot lui Carol Popp de Szathmari. În România, în anul 2010, în semn de recunoaştere a meritelor, ziua sa de naştere - 11 ianuarie - a fost declarată, prin Hotărâre de Guvern, Ziua Artei Fotografice în România. Iar cu ocazia bicentenarului naşterii sale în ianuarie 2012, Banca Naţională a Românei a emis o monedă aniversară, de argint cu chipul lui.
\r\n- Mobilitatea fotografului stârneşte chiar invidia călătorului modern! Cât de importantă a fost contribuţia lui la dezvoltarea mişcării fotografice a secolului XIX ?
\r\n- Carol Popp de Szathmari şi-a început activitatea ca pictor şi grafician, pentru ca după aceea să descopere fotografia şi să devină astfel, primul fotograf de artă şi documentarist din România. După stabilirea în Bucureşti a lucrat în atelierul lui Carol Wahlstein din mahalaua Sfânta Vineri; între 1850-1858 şi-a amenajat atelierul în Hanul Bossel din centrul oraşului; între 1858-1864 a locuit şi a lucrat la mansarda Hanului Verde de pe uliţa Curtea Veche, iar din 1867 şi până la sfârşitul vieţii a avut un atelier de pictură şi fotografie în locuinţa sa de pe strada Enei. Deşi a fost pictor şi al Curţii domnitorilor D. Ghica, Gh. Bibescu şi B. Ştirbei, abia la data de 16 octombrie 1863, domnitorul Alexandru Ioan Cuza i-a acordat titlurile oficiale de pictor şi fotograf al Curţii, pe care le-a păstrat şi după venirea domnitorului Carol I. Şi tot datorită activităţii sale, domnitorul Cuza avea să recunoască oficial fotografia ca artă, punând-o alături de genurile artistice consacrate ale vremii. Contribuţia lui Carol Popp de Szathmari în mişcarea fotografică a secolului al XIX-lea a fost una decisivă, devenind unul dintre primii 10 fotografi din Europa secolului al XIX-lea.
\r\n- Puţini ştiu că acest clujean a fost şi unul dintre pionierii foto-reportajului de război. Îi recunoaşte istoria această contribuţie?\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Circazieni-Szatmary.jpg\" "\\"Circazieni")
- Istoria îl indică pe Szathmari drept primul reporter de război din lume, înaintea englezului Roger Fenton şi a americanului S. Robertson. Astfel el a lăsat mărturii fotografice despre Războiul Crimeei (1853-1856) şi Războiul de Independenţă (1877-1878). Fotografiile din Războiul Crimeei le-a multiplicat şi le-a adunat în câteva albume, oferite ulterior capetelor încoronate ale Europei, iar un exemplar a fost prezentat la Expoziţia Universală de la Paris din 1855, care i-a adus una dintre medalii: clasa a II-a. Ziarele vieneze au anunţat cu acel prilej că pictorul Szathmari a adus cu el două rare şi preţioase albume de fotografii. „În faţa seriei de fotografii colorate, ce înfăţişau imagini din Războiul Crimeii, vizitatorii se strângeau buluc”. Astfel că numele lui figurează în toate istoriile, compendiile, volumele, lucrările ştiinţifice etc. Toate vorbesc de Szathmari, adică de România.....
\r\n- A fost un “răsfăţat al timpului”?
\r\n- Se poate spune. Dacă ne gândim că a fost laureat şi al Expoziţiilor Universale de la Londra (1851), Paris (1867), Viena (1873), precum şi al \"Expoziţiilor artiştilor în viaţă\" organizate la Bucureşti în 1865 şi 1868. Din 1864 a devenit membru al Societăţii Franceze de Fotografie, iar din 1870 a fost ales şi membru al Societăţii Fotografice din Viena. Carol Popp de Szathmari a primit o serie de medalii acordate de: împăraţii Napoleon al III-lea şi Franz Josef (1855), regina Victoria a Marii Britanii (1860), regina Cristina a Suediei (1875). În 1864, aflat în suita domnitorului Alexandru Ioan Cuza, în vizita pe care acesta a făcut-o la Constantinopol, sultanul Abdul Aziz i-a conferit Ordinul Medjidie - clasa a IV-a, Szathmari fiind unul dintre puţinii civili onoraţi astfel. În 1884, regele Carol I i-a conferit Ordinul Steaua României - în grad de cavaler, încununând astfel o carieră de excepţie.
\r\n- Aţi afirmat de mai multe ori că instituţiile culturale ar trebui să fie mai active, “să iasă în stradă”, să-l tragă de mânecă pe vizitator, să-l captiveze cu formule mai atractive, mai vii!
\r\n- Cu siguranţă, aşa e. Muzeele ar trebui să colaboreze mai mult în privinţa circulaţiei patrimoniului şi a schimburilor intermuzeale, să se implice în proiecte comune. Binevenite sunt şi expoziţiile itinerante, care înlesnesc cunoaşterea patrimoniului diverselor muzee din ţară şi pun în circulaţie opere care altfel, nu sunt la îndemâna iubitorilor de istorie şi artă. Muzeul National Cotroceni are foarte mulţi parteneri ceea ce denotă, pe de o parte, bunele relaţii pe care le-a dezvoltat de-a lungul timpului cu majoritatea muzeelor de istorie şi artă din România, iar pe de altă parte, acel “activism” cultural care este vital şi necesar.
\r\n- Instituţiile muzeale sunt parte din industria turistică. Peste tot în lume, vestigiile istorice, religioase etc, strigă după vizitatori iar organizatorii de călătorii îşi hrănesc turiştii în aceste oaze ale patrimoniului naţional ori universal. Vă preocupă creşterea circulaţiei turistice spre Muzeul Naţional Cotroceni?
\r\n- Cultura este ca un copil care creşte sub ochii părinţilor, iar aceştia sunt vizitatorii şi turiştii. Îmi place să spun asta. Drept urmare suntem preocupaţi de atragerea unui număr cât mai mare de români şi străini. Încercăm să găsim cele mai flexibile modalităţi de promovare: încheierea de parteneriate media şi educaţionale, publicarea de pliante, broşuri, cărţi poştale, ghiduri şi cataloage de expoziţie, site-ul muzelui, tradus în limba engleză, prezenţa în cadrul unor emisiuni Radio şi TV, itinerarea unor expoziţii în ţară şi străinătate, seminarii şi conferinţe internaţionale. Vizibilitatea Muzeului Naţional Cotroceni este în continuă creştere. De aceea preocuparea noastră permanentă rămâne aceea de a ne poziţiona în prim planul vieţii culturale din Capitală prin evenimente de excepţie.

\r\n\r\nGhidul nostru o cunoştinţă mai veche a fost Philip Ferentinos, chiar directorul companiei. Cu el am plecat pe acest traseu şi - pentru o zi – am trăit pe bune, pe planeta celor frumoşi, faimoşi, talentaţi şi vânaţi de paparazi ori marele public. Grammy Museum, situat în noua zonă civică a oraşului denumită Live LA, este prima oprire. Deschis publicului în 2008, cu ocazia celei de-a 50-a aniversări a premiilor Grammy muzeul este o lecţie vie despre istoria muzicii americane şi mai ales despre cea a sunetelor. Poţi păşi în timpurile de început ale jazz-ului, ale radioului, poţi admira hainele purtate de vedete la diverse ceremonii şi concerte şi poţi asculta şi vocea lui Lenin, dacă vrei, căci şi cuvântările lui fac parte din istoria... înregistrărilor. Muzica merge mână în mână cu filmul aşa că ne-am oprit la fascinantul Hollywood Museum situat în clădirea Max Factor, locul magic unde actriţele se transformau în dive şi făceau femeile să creadă că şi ele pot fi la fel. Cabinele de machiaj – pentru blonde, brune sau roşcate -, sunt adevărate sanctuare, expunând articole de make-up, folosite de actriţe şi actori, iar sălile de expoziţie oferă incursiuni neaşteptate în platourile de filmare prin costumele originale purtate de protagonişti şi decorurile unor filme celebre precum „Moulin Rouge” ori „Tăcerea mieilor”.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/sua-8.jpg\" "\\"sua")
\r\n\r\nCa o mănuşă s-a potrivit şi vizita la Muzeul Madamme Tussauds Hollywood şi la singularul Grauman’s Chinese Theatre. Ne vom opri asupra acestui faimos cinema-teatru situat în inima Hollywood-ului. Informaţiile oferite pe tichetul VIP sunt mai mult decât îndestulătoare. Primul film care a rulat aici a fost „Regele regilor”, în regia lui Cecil & DeMills, la inaugurarea din 1927 iar biletul costa 25 de cenţi. Ce tare era dolarul pe vrea aceea. Anual au loc aici peste 40 de premiere cinematografice incluzând şi cele mai „bănoase” filme din toate timpurile – „Avatar” şi „Titanic”. Aşa că pare logic ca o parte din ceremoniile Oscar să fi avut loc aici în perioada celui de-al doilea Război Mondial (1944-1947). Ca atracţie turistică ce să mai spunem ? Anual vizitează teatrul peste 5 milioane de turişti. Colecţiile muzeului sunt evaluate la peste 10 milioane de dolari. Cum să nu te atraga rochia lui Scarlet din „Pe aripile vântului” sau cea a lui Marilyn Monroe din „Domnii preferă blondele”. Sau Liz Taylor în „Cleopatra”.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/sua-3.jpg\" "\\"sua")
\r\n\r\nCea mai mare atracţie o reprezintă însă Bulevardul Stelelor căci el se află chiar la picioarele teatrului. Ni se aminteşte că prima stea aparţine actriţei Norma Talmadge iar cea mai tânără vedetă a fost Shirley Temple „ înstelată” la vârsta de 6 ani. Şi desigur, cele mai fotografiate stele sunt cele ale lui Marilyn Monroe şi John Wayne. Să nu-l uităm pe George Clooney... Stiaţi că şi obiectele au stele? Pipa lui Groucho Marx, mănuşa lui Michael Jackson sau „bagheta magică” a lui Hary Potter sunt doar o parte dintre acestea. Ficţiunea şi realitatea devin, în acest fel, una şi aceeaşi poveste. Aceasta faimoasă alee a stelelor se intersectează cu nu mai puţin de 15 străzi, „blindate” cu terase, baruri, restaurante... şi sunt vreo 2500! În acest context, întâlnirea cu Ana Martinez este una VIP. Caci Ana Martinez este producătorul a peste 600 de ceremonii de”stea” în calitate de VIP Media Relations şi Producător al Hollywood Walk of Fame cu o activitate de 25 de ani. Oare stelele or avea regină? În acest caz pare că da!\r\n\r\nIar povestea noastră trăită însă în realitate, nu ar fi fost deplină fără întâlnirea, absolut întâmplătoare, cu Harvey Levin, creatorul TMZ şi TMZ.com, devenit la rândul lui vânat de către fani. Acestea sunt de fapt deliciile turului: hoinărind cu autobuzul VIP prin LA ai ocazia să te întâlneşti cu vedete în carne şi oase. Ele nu se feresc când văd apropiindu-se bus-ul cu marca amintită, dimpotrivă, căci publicitatea rămâne regine din umbră a păstrării popularităţii.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/sua-16.jpg\" "\\"sua")
\r\n...Hm! Nu este deloc rău să fii VIP. Turul se termină cu o sesiune de shopping la Beverly Center, ce începe într-un salon luxos (cafea, sucuri, diferite delicatese, oferite gratuit, că deh, e altceva cînd pleci la cumpărături şi bine alimentat şi cu sfaturile lui Carlos E.Montenegro, marketing specialist al celebrului magazin.După prezentarea aferentă unui cocktail de bun venit ne-a dat şi ne-a spus ceva. Ce? Ghiciţi!Locul este deosebit nu doar prin lux şi abundenţă de mărci şi produse ci şi prin aceea că este şi platou de filmare pentru seriale celebre precum CSI-LA.Prezenţa la cumpărături a vedetelor este ca un bonus. Este lumea lor şi visul nostru… atât de scump că pentru majoritatea care trec pe aici rămâne doar un… vis. Dar visul nostru de jurnalişti de turism - iar la INTERNATIONAL POW WOW au fost acreditaţi peste 400 -, de a fi VIP în L.A s-a transformat într-o experienţă culturală de neuitat căci, la final, am putut spune că ceea ce ni s-a oferit a fost un tur de forţă şi eleganţă, prin cultura contemporană a metropolei. Oare, nu cumva, aceasta este marea stea care luminează oraşul, transformându-l într-o destinaţie VIP?

UN « MĂR DE AUR » PENTRU ORAŞUL LUI BRÂNCUŞI\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Braincusi-162.jpg\" "\\"Braincusi")
\r\n
Pare incredibil dar este adevărat. Deşi ansamblul “Calea Eroilor”, creaţie lui Constantin Brâncuşi ce se exprimă prin trei repere – Masa Tăcerii, Poarta Sărutului şi Coloana Infinitului -, este o unul dintre cele mai valoroase monumente în aer liber din lume, acesta nu figurează în patrimoniul UNESCO, ci doar în cel european.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Braincusi-144.jpg\" "\\"Braincusi")
\r\nSurprinzător nu? Un oficial al UNESCO România, răspundea în timpul unui interviu recent ceva de genul acesta: Organizaţia internaţională nu ne va băga nimic în traistă dacă ţara noastră nu e preocupată să propună şi să ceară cu argumente includerea creaţiei unicat a lui Brâncuşi, artist de valoare mondială, în patrimoniul UNESCO. După câte am aflat demersurile pentru acest proces au demarat dar procedurile de aprobare vor dura ceva ani. Este o nedreptate care trebuie corectată de vremurile moderne. Fără îndoială, românii, implicit Brâncuşi, merită acest lucru.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Braincusi-218.jpg\" "\\"Braincusi")
O DUBLĂ PREMIERĂ \r\nLa acest aspect s-au gândit şi membrii Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET România, care sunt de părere că Ansamblul monumental creat de Brâncuşi la Târgu Jiu ar trebui să constituie un loc de pelerinaj turistic internaţional şi, mai mult o imagine-brand a turismului cultural mondial. Î n urmă cu 3 ani această asociaţie de profesionişti a adus României 3 “Golden Apple”, sau “Pomme d’Or”, trofee care echivalează cu premiile Oscar din industria filmului. Ele au fost decernate, după o muncă asiduă de promovare - cât de epuizantă a fost numai echipa FIJET România care a lucrat la acest proiect o ştie ? -, Zonei Mărginimea Sibiului, Rezervaţiei Biosferei Delta Dunării, respectiv companiei Blue Air. A fost o dublă premieră în istoricul FIJET, organizaţie ce reuneşte circa 800 de jurnalişti din 40 de ţări. Cele 3 Mere de Aur reînoadă o istorie începută în 1975 când România primea de la FIJET prima asemenea distincţie pentru Mănăstirea Moldoviţa şi Bucovina.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Braincusi-377.jpg\" "\\"Braincusi")
15 JURNALISTI FAC AL DOILEA PAS \r\nAcest scurt apel la istoria recentă este necesar pentru a înţelege că respectivele distincţii internaţionale nu se acordă cu carul şi în fiecare an unor atracţii din aceleaşi ţări. Nu există un asemenea precedent. Revenim la realitate. Din dragoste pentru Brâncuşi şi turismul cultural Românesc FIJET România, organizaţie condusă de Victor Rădulescu, în parteneriat cu, Asociaţia Profesională Patronală de Turism Gorjul (APPT), condusă de Laura Dragu, au demarat procedurile pentru acordarea unui viitor „Măr de Aur” pentru oraşul lui Brâncuşi. În luna martie a fost susţinută la Praga, la întâlnirea Comitetului Director al FIJET (Federaţia Internaţională a Jurnaliştilor şi Editorilor de Turism), candidatura FIJET România, pentru Ansamblul monumental Brâncuşi şi oraşul Târgu Jiu, inaugurat pe 27 octombrie 1938.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Brincusi-baloane.jpg\" "\\"Brincusi")
\r\n\r\nAl doilea pas l-a constituit organizarea unui Infotrip de documentare a unei echipe de 15 jurnalişti de turism de la FIJET România, la Târgu Jiu. Cu acest prilej Laura Dragu a afirmat că Asociaţia pe care o conduce împreună cu Primăria oraşului şi Consiliul Judeţean vor depune toate eforturile materiale şi profesionale pentru a convinge că „această inimă arhitecturală a lui Brâncuşi şi Târgu Jiu merită să primească cea mai valoroasă distincţie a organizaţiei internaţionale a jurnaliştilor de turism. Am realizat că nicăieri nu este atât de bine şi de frumos, de liniştitor ca acasă la Brâncuşi. Am observat minunile de lângă noi, oraşul care are un aer interesant, de ce nu?, misterios sau aparte care, an de an, atrage tot mai mulţi turişţi. E o bucurie şi o încântare să vezi autocare ce parchează zilnic, în număr din ce în ce mai mare, în zona centrală a oraşului, aproape de Grădina Publică, unde turiştii vin să vadă operele lui Constantin Brâncuşi: Masa Tăcerii, Aleea Scaunelor, Poarta Sărutului, apoi merg spre Coloana Infinitului, poposesc la Muzeul Judeţean Alexandru Ştefulescu, la Muzeul de Artă, la Casa memorială Ecaterina Teodoroiu în Târgu Jiu. Putem spune cu mândrie că Târgu Jiu este un oraş turistic. În Târgu Jiu sunt foarte multe locaţii noi apărute după 1990, de 3 stele. Gastronomia locului este interesantă şi apreciată iar unul dintre evenimentele de referinţă este Festivalul Răciturilor care se desfăşoară deja de 3 ediţii.”
TG. JIU - INTERESANT SI MISTERIOS
\r\nÎn timpul întâlnirilor informale cu oficialităţile locale s-au făcut schimburi de idei, din care fiecare le-a selectat pe cele mai fezabile şi realizabile în perspectiva apropiată. În timpul primirii la intrarea în judeţ a delegaţiei FIJET ROMÂNIA, - în care au fost etalate mai multe elemente specifice ospitalităţii gorjeneşti, inclusiv o pâine împletită pe care scria “Mărul de aur pentru Brâncuşi” -, Ion Călinoiu, preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean Gorj îşi arăta susţinerea pentru dezvoltarea regională: „Gorjul este, iată, luat în vizor ca un judeţ cu potenţial turistic important. Am intrat într-o competiţie şi, desigur, dorim să câştigăm „Mărul de Aur”. Deschiderea noastră ca unitate administrativ-teritorială este mare”. După o altă reuniune interesantă avută la sediul Primăriei Tg. Jiu primarul Florin Cârciumaru aprecia propunerile făcute de de jurnaliştii Clubului Presei de Turism şi sublinia: “Vă asigur că autorităţile locale se implică pe cât de mult este posibil pentru ca, în timp, municipiul să devină o ţintă şi mai atractivă nu numai pentru români ci şi pentru străini. Susţinem la această oră demersurile făcute pentru a include operele lui Brâncuşi, în patrimoniul UNESCO. Observaţiile dumneavoastră referitoare la marcaje şi semnalizări, la crearea unor rute turistice în oraş şi în afara lui, la valorificarea superioară a Centrului de Informare Turistică, la o promovare mai flexibilă şi modernă a obiectivelor “Brâncuşi”, sunt subiecte pe care le vom analiza şi vor deveni realitate în funcţie şi de resursele financiare pe care le vom deţine. Avem o serie de probleme în domeniu promovării creaţiilor lui Brâncuşi. Ele sunt legate de faptul că drepturile de autor pentru aceste opere nu aparţin statului român, ci unui cetăţean român stabilit în Canada. Avem însă negocieri cu perspective optimiste. Pentru că fără urme de tăgadă Brâncuşi este unul dintre cei mai valoroşi ambasadori ai României în lume.”\r\n \r\nMESAJE ALBASTRE CĂTRE CER
\r\nDeoarece spaţiul nu ne permite mai mult vom aminti de evenimentul care a marcat devotamentul urbei pentru a obţine “Mărul de aur”. Ceremonia, în care Gabriel Sanda viceprimarul municipiului Târgu-Jiu a anunţat că au început demersurile în acest scop -, a fost marcată de trimiterea către cer – de către un grup de elevi ai Liceului economic Virgil Madgearu - a sute de baloane albastre inscripţionate cu mesajul „Mărul de aur pentru oraşul lui Brâncuşi”. Documentarea noastră a inclus şi alte atracţii turistice şi culturale din oraş dar şi din judeţ, printre care Mănăstirea şi Peştera Polovragi, Muzeul din Curtişoara, Casa memorială Ecaterina Teodoroiu, Mănăstirea Tismana şi Casa Memorială „Constantin Brâncuşi” din Hobiţa etc. “Povestitorii” au fost personalităţi ale locului transformaţi ad-hoc în ghizi culturali printre care ªtefan Stăiculescu, Nichifor Gheorghe şi Radu Ciobanu.

Pare incredibil dar este adevărat. Deşi ansamblul “Calea Eroilor”, creaţie lui Constantin Brâncuşi ce se exprimă prin trei repere – Masa Tăcerii, Poarta Sărutului şi Coloana Infinitului -, este o unul dintre cele mai valoroase monumente în aer liber din lume, acesta nu figurează în patrimoniul UNESCO, ci doar în cel european.\n\nSurprinzător nu? Un oficial al UNESCO România, răspundea în timpul unui interviu recent ceva de genul acesta: Organizaţia internaţională nu ne va băga nimic în traistă dacă ţara noastră nu e preocupată să propună şi să ceară cu argumente includerea creaţiei unicat a lui Brâncuşi, artist de valoare mondială, în patrimoniul UNESCO. După câte am aflat demersurile pentru acest proces au demarat dar procedurile de aprobare vor dura ceva ani. Este o nedreptate care trebuie corectată de vremurile moderne. Fără îndoială, românii, implicit Brâncuşi, merită acest lucru.\n
O DUBLĂ PREMIERĂ \nLa acest aspect s-au gândit şi membrii Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET România, care sunt de părere că Ansamblul monumental creat de Brâncuşi la Târgu Jiu ar trebui să constituie un loc de pelerinaj turistic internaţional şi, mai mult o imagine-brand a turismului cultural mondial. Î n urmă cu 3 ani această asociaţie de profesionişti a adus României 3 “Golden Apple”, sau “Pomme d’Or”, trofee care echivalează cu premiile Oscar din industria filmului. Ele au fost decernate, după o muncă asiduă de promovare - cât de epuizantă a fost numai echipa FIJET România care a lucrat la acest proiect o ştie ? -, Zonei Mărginimea Sibiului, Rezervaţiei Biosferei Delta Dunării, respectiv companiei Blue Air. A fost o dublă premieră în istoricul FIJET, organizaţie ce reuneşte circa 800 de jurnalişti din 40 de ţări. Cele 3 Mere de Aur reînoadă o istorie începută în 1975 când România primea de la FIJET prima asemenea distincţie pentru Mănăstirea Moldoviţa şi Bucovina.
\n15 JURNALIªTI FAC AL DOILEA PAS \nAcest scurt apel la istoria recentă este necesar pentru a înţelege că respectivele distincţii internaţionale nu se acordă cu carul şi în fiecare an unor atracţii din aceleaşi ţări. Nu există un asemenea precedent. Revenim la realitate. Din dragoste pentru Brâncuşi şi turismul cultural Românesc FIJET România, organizaţie condusă de Victor Rădulescu, în parteneriat cu, Asociaţia Profesională Patronală de Turism Gorjul (APPT), condusă de Laura Dragu, au demarat procedurile pentru acordarea unui viitor „Măr de Aur” pentru oraşul lui Brâncuşi. În luna martie a fost susţinută la Praga, la întâlnirea Comitetului Director al FIJET (Federaţia Internaţională a Jurnaliştilor şi Editorilor de Turism), candidatura FIJET România, pentru Ansamblul monumental Brâncuşi şi oraşul Târgu Jiu, inaugurat pe 27 octombrie 1938.\n\nAl doilea pas l-a constituit organizarea unui Infotrip de documentare a unei echipe de 15 jurnalişti de turism de la FIJET România, la Târgu Jiu. Cu acest prilej Laura Dragu a afirmat că Asociaţia pe care o conduce împreună cu Primăria oraşului şi Consiliul Judeţean vor depune toate eforturile materiale şi profesionale pentru a convinge că „această inimă arhitecturală a lui Brâncuşi şi Târgu Jiu merită să primească cea mai valoroasă distincţie a organizaţiei internaţionale a jurnaliştilor de turism. Am realizat că nicăieri nu este atât de bine şi de frumos, de liniştitor ca acasă la Brâncuşi. Am observat minunile de lângă noi, oraşul care are un aer interesant, de ce nu?, misterios sau aparte care, an de an, atrage tot mai mulţi turişţi. E o bucurie şi o încântare să vezi autocare ce parchează zilnic, în număr din ce în ce mai mare, în zona centrală a oraşului, aproape de Grădina Publică, unde turiştii vin să vadă operele lui Constantin Brâncuşi: Masa Tăcerii, Aleea Scaunelor, Poarta Sărutului, apoi merg spre Coloana Infinitului, poposesc la Muzeul Judeţean Alexandru Ştefulescu, la Muzeul de Artă, la Casa memorială Ecaterina Teodoroiu în Târgu Jiu. Putem spune cu mândrie că Târgu Jiu este un oraş turistic. În Târgu Jiu sunt foarte multe locaţii noi apărute după 1990, de 3 stele. Gastronomia locului este interesantă şi apreciată iar unul dintre evenimentele de referinţă este Festivalul Răciturilor care se desfăşoară deja de 3 ediţii.”
\nTG. JIU - INTERESANT SI MISTERIOS
\nÎn timpul întâlnirilor informale cu oficialităţile locale s-au făcut schimburi de idei, din care fiecare le-a selectat pe cele mai fezabile şi realizabile în perspectiva apropiată. În timpul primirii la intrarea în judeţ a delegaţiei FIJET ROMÂNIA, - în care au fost etalate mai multe elemente specifice ospitalităţii gorjeneşti, inclusiv o pâine împletită pe care scria “Mărul de aur pentru Brâncuşi” -, Ion Călinoiu, preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean Gorj îşi arăta susţinerea pentru dezvoltarea regională: „Gorjul este, iată, luat în vizor ca un judeţ cu potenţial turistic important. Am intrat într-o competiţie şi, desigur, dorim să câştigăm „Mărul de Aur”. Deschiderea noastră ca unitate administrativ-teritorială este mare”. După o altă reuniune interesantă avută la sediul Primăriei Tg. Jiu primarul Florin Cârciumaru aprecia propunerile făcute de de jurnaliştii Clubului Presei de Turism şi sublinia: “Vă asigur că autorităţile locale se implică pe cât de mult este posibil pentru ca, în timp, municipiul să devină o ţintă şi mai atractivă nu numai pentru români ci şi pentru străini. Susţinem la această oră demersurile făcute pentru a include operele lui Brâncuşi, în patrimoniul UNESCO. Observaţiile dumneavoastră referitoare la marcaje şi semnalizări, la crearea unor rute turistice în oraş şi în afara lui, la valorificarea superioară a Centrului de Informare Turistică, la o promovare mai flexibilă şi modernă a obiectivelor “Brâncuşi”, sunt subiecte pe care le vom analiza şi vor deveni realitate în funcţie şi de resursele financiare pe care le vom deţine. Avem o serie de probleme în domeniu promovării creaţiilor lui Brâncuşi. Ele sunt legate de faptul că drepturile de autor pentru aceste opere nu aparţin statului român, ci unui cetăţean român stabilit în Canada. Avem însă negocieri cu perspective optimiste. Pentru că fără urme de tăgadă Brâncuşi este unul dintre cei mai valoroşi ambasadori ai României în lume.”\n \nMESAJE ALBASTRE CĂTRE CER
\nDeoarece spaţiul nu ne permite mai mult vom aminti de evenimentul care a marcat devotamentul urbei pentru a obţine “Mărul de aur”. Ceremonia, în care Gabriel Sanda viceprimarul municipiului Târgu-Jiu a anunţat că au început demersurile în acest scop -, a fost marcată de trimiterea către cer – de către un grup de elevi ai Liceului economic Virgil Madgearu - a sute de baloane albastre inscripţionate cu mesajul „Mărul de aur pentru oraşul lui Brâncuşi”. Documentarea noastră a inclus şi alte atracţii turistice şi culturale din oraş dar şi din judeţ, printre care Mănăstirea şi Peştera Polovragi, Muzeul din Curtişoara, Casa memorială Ecaterina Teodoroiu, Mănăstirea Tismana şi Casa Memorială „Constantin Brâncuşi” din Hobiţa etc. “Povestitorii” au fost personalităţi ale locului transformaţi ad-hoc în ghizi culturali printre care ªtefan Stăiculescu, Nichifor Gheorghe şi Radu Ciobanu.

\r\n\r\nPhoenicia Holiday Resorts unul dintre complexele hoteliere pe care investitorul Mohammad Murad le-a construit pe Litoral, s-a poziţionat cu o ofertă care se bucură de succes. După cum am aflat el se adresează în principal familiilor cu copii şi drept urmare toate investiţiile au fost pe acest concept tematic. „Ne bazăm pe simplitate, modestie şi bun simţ. Miza noastră în toate hotelurile pe care le deţinem pe litoral - în Mamaia, Olimp şi Jupiter -, nu este să obţinem un profit cât mai mare ci să facem cât mai mulţi turişti fericiţi. Fiecare zâmbet de pe buzele unui copil ne împinge înainte.

\r\nDe ce am zîmbi împreună? Păi avem de ce! Complexul are o deschidere spre plaja privată de circa 100.000 de metri pătraţi. Spaţiul ultramodern de vacanţă oferă peste 1.500 de locuri de cazare în peste 420 de garsoniere şi de apartamente, cu 2, 3 şi 4 camere, deţine 5 restaurante – dintre care am remarcat Kasttane, restaurant-terasă cu specific românesc cu 1.000 de locuri, şi Sapore Di Mare, cu specific italian ce deţine 150 de locuri, baruri, terase, locuri de joacă pentru copii, club de biliard, centru de jocuri, bază sportivă, chiar şi un amfiteatru pentru spectacole, amplasat în vecinătatea unei parcări de 400 de locuri. În spaţiul interior al complexului vă veţi întâlni cu o imagine spectaculoasă – piscine în diferite variante, un râu interior, centru Spa şi multe alte surprize. Murat spune că în 2013-2014 se va ajunge la circa 5.000 de locuri. Investiţia de peste 20 de milioane de euro, cea mai mare din turismul românesc, va consolida poate cel mai mare complex turistic, în fapt o mică staţiune cu toate facilităţile, din Europa de Est. Dacă mai adăugăm că aici aveţi în fiecare zi şi seară animaţie şi spectacole artistice, tentativa de a vă petrece vacanţele aici rămâne ca o invitaţie deschisă la... 4 stele.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Phoenicia-Navodari-207.jpg\" "\\"Phoenicia")
\r\nMarina Regia – amabilitatea a fugit de acasă\r\nDespre acestă locaţie, tot din Năvodari, nu vă putem spune prea multe. La momentul vizitei noastre o domnişoară director – numele chiar că nu merită amintit - care s-a născut sigur într-o zi în care amabilitatea era fugită de acasă, n-a putut să ne arată nicio cameră şi nici măcar o facilitate a complexului. Pentru că, vezi doamne, complexul era full. În mod sigur ne-a luat drept fraieri. O durea în cot, şi nici acolo, de travel agenţii care ar fi dorit să includă Resortul în ofertele lor de vânzare. Asta pentru că la prima vedere când am ieşit de la recepţie în faţa clădirii se aflau doar vreo... 5 maşini. Ale angajaţilor. Asta da ospitalitate românească în complexul de lux Marina Regia Residence.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Costinesti-173.jpg\" "\\"Costinesti")
\r\n\r\nCostineşti – amintirile mă urmăresc\r\n Dacă este să fim la fel de sinceri cu cititorii noştri trebuie să spunem că Staţiunea Costineşti nu mai e la ea acasă. Vremurile când elevii şi studenţii se bucurau de viaţă la preţuri mici şi tinereşti au trecut. Probabil că o parte din ei se cazează prin pensiunile şi motelurile din afara staţiunii, care au înflorit ca urmare a cererii. Staţiunea ar trebui să se numească mai degrabă Vox Maris, pentru că mai mult de jumătate din perimetrul de vacanţă este acum ocupat de către Clubul Vox Maris. Este deranjat doar de silueta învechită ca să nu spunem buşită a hotelului Forum, cândva emblema staţiunii. Fără îndoială vilele cuprinse în acest Resort tip Club, se adresează familiilor, clienţilor corporate şi celor cu o situaţie materială peste medie. Aproape nimic nu mai aminteşte în această oază de verdeaţă de vechile vile, ale căror pereţi se scorojesc la soare. Camerele – garsoniere, apartamente cu 2 şi 3 camere - sunt decorate cu bun gust iar tot spaţiul amenajat creează o atmosferă confortabilă pentru cei veniţi în vacanţă. În total 303. Clubul Vox Maris, se desfăşoară pe o suprafaţă de 7 hectare, funcţionează la un standard de 4 stele, deţine numeroase facilităţi printre care 2 restaurante, cu specific românesc şi internaţional 3 baruri, un club disco cu 1500 de locuri care este folosit deseori pentru găzduirea unor evenimente, săli de conferinţe toate permiţând complexului să funcţioneze o perioadă mai lungă din an.

La momentul vizitei noastre o domnişoară director – numele chiar că nu merită amintit - care s-a născut sigur într-o zi în care amabilitatea era fugită de acasă, n-a putut să ne arată nicio cameră şi nici măcar o facilitate a complexului. Pentru că, vezi doamne, complexul era full. În mod sigur ne-a luat drept fraieri. O durea în cot, şi nici acolo, de travel agenţii care ar fi dorit să includă Resortul în ofertele lor de vânzare. Asta pentru că la prima vedere când am ieşit de la recepţie în faţa clădirii se aflau doar vreo... 5 maşini. Ale angajaţilor. Asta da ospitalitate românească în complexul de lux Marina Regia Residence.\n\n\nCostineşti – amintirile mă urmăresc\n Dacă este să fim la fel de sinceri cu cititorii noştri trebuie să spunem că Staţiunea Costineşti nu mai e la ea acasă. Vremurile când elevii şi studenţii se bucurau de viaţă la preţuri mici şi tinereşti au trecut. Probabil că o parte din ei se cazează prin pensiunile şi motelurile din afara staţiunii, care au înflorit ca urmare a cererii. Staţiunea ar trebui să se numească mai degrabă Vox Maris, pentru că mai mult de jumătate din perimetrul de vacanţă este acum ocupat de către Clubul Vox Maris. Este deranjat doar de silueta învechită ca să nu spunem buşită a hotelului Forum, cândva emblema staţiunii. Fără îndoială vilele cuprinse în acest Resort tip Club, se adresează familiilor, clienţilor corporate şi celor cu o situaţie materială peste medie. Aproape nimic nu mai aminteşte în această oază de verdeaţă de vechile vile, ale căror pereţi se scorojesc la soare. Camerele – garsoniere, apartamente cu 2 şi 3 camere - sunt decorate cu bun gust iar tot spaţiul amenajat creează o atmosferă confortabilă pentru cei veniţi în vacanţă. În total 303. Clubul Vox Maris, se desfăşoară pe o suprafaţă de 7 hectare, funcţionează la un standard de 4 stele, deţine numeroase facilităţi printre care 2 restaurante, cu specific românesc şi internaţional 3 baruri, un club disco cu 1500 de locuri care este folosit deseori pentru găzduirea unor evenimente, săli de conferinţe toate permiţând complexului să funcţioneze o perioadă mai lungă din an.

\r\nLa un sfârşit de săptămână torid ne-am întâlnit cu Ioan Ciuru, care a ajuns la al patrulea mandat de când conduce comuna Eşelniţa. La Centrul Internaţional România-Serbia, unde se află şi Centrul de Perfecţionare Eşelniţa, primarul şi-a exprimat convingerea că urbea pe care o conduce va avea un cuvânt de spus pe piaţa turistică naţională. În faţa operatorilor şi ai presei de turism el a prezentat esenţa unui program „Weekend la Eşelniţa”, ce beneficiază de finanţare europeană. Prin acesta se urmăreşte creşterea cu 25% a circulaţiei turistice în zonă. Desigur, este mare nevoie de promovarea obiectivelor turistice, majoritatea cu valoare de unicat prin metode de marketing specific. Sună frumos şi chiar periculos dacă ne gândim că o parte din programele turistice sunt tangente cu aventura ce se consumă uneori timp de o zi pe apele Dunării. Să vă fie clar – Dunărea la Cazane este o altă Dunăre, iar atracţiile existente aici au majoritatea o strălucire unică. Primarul Ciuru priveşte cu optimism atingerea acestei ţinte, dar adevărul adevărat este că greul l-au dus şi continuă să-l ducă investitorii privaţi din zonă. Mulţi dintre ei lucreză bine cu instituţiile locale pentru că, oricum am lua-o, scopul este comun şi toată lumea vrea să câştige din turism. Ioan Ciuru zice că „viitorul va fi de partea noastră. Investitorii au construit aici iar noi derulăm fonduri europene în valoare de circa 14 milioane de euro”. Ar fi de dorit ca o sumă mai consistentă să fie alocată pentru publicitarea destinaţiei. Că numai cu o floare nu face primăvară în turism.

\r\nDoru Oniga – un om cu vână de pioner
\r\nEşelniţa se promovează pe piaţă cu 21 de pensiuni cu circa 300 de camere, majoritatea muc şi sfârc, dotate ca la carte, cu oferte gastronomice pe măsură dar şi cu programe opţionale bine închegate. Lesne de înţeles, ele au ca mijloc de transport ambarcaţiunile locale iar Dunărea albastră este vedeta incontestabilă şi fără vârstă. Ba chiar se pare că a întinerit. Cu ajutorul unor activităţi de PR, care au avut în centrul ei pe Zâna Dunării şi Piraţii din Clisură, cam tot atât de periculoşi ca aceia din Caraibe. Cu diferenţa că ei au jucat rolul de apărători ai Zânei în faţa eventualilor răufăcători. În total însă pe Clisura Dunării sunt circa 40 de pensiuni şi mici hoteluri. O parte fie sunt proprietăţi de familie, fie fac un fel de turism negro-spiritual. Majoritatea le îmbina cu succes pe amândouă. Cei care au avut vână pe pioneri ai locului au simţit că turismul va merge cândva. Aici poţi să te amăgeşti că e locul ideal pentru turismul individual, dar vei constata că reţeta cea mai profitabilă este asigurată de turismul de masă, de grup. Doru Oniga a venit în urmă cu mai bine de 15 ani să găsească aurul turistic la Eşelniţa. La început a dat numai de apă şi piatră. A costat mult prima construcţie care a fost o casă de vacanţă. Cu 11 ani în urmă şi-a deschis uşile pentru turişti. Văzând că apare cererea, a investit în mai multe etape, unele dintre ele fiind dublate şi de fonduri europene. „Până în 1989, în zona Clisurii nu se putea intra decât cu buletinul. Când am făcut prima investiţie, oamenii mă credeau nebun, probabil că şi arătam aşa pentru că toţi investitorii când încep să-şi pună banii şi pielea la saramură în turism, oricât s-ar zice, au o privire ciudată pentru că îşi dau seama că riscă enorm. Aici, eu dar şi soţia mea, am simţit-o din plin. Pentru că turismul este o fiinţă sensibilă”. Doru priveşte spre pensiunea „Steaua Dunării” care oferă azi 18 camere duble, 2 triple, 3 apartamente, sală de conferinţă cu 60 de locuri, un restaurant cu 90 de locuri, terasă acoperită cu 60 de locuri, un loc de plajă cu şezlonguri. Nu se va opri aici. A cumpărat un teren în imediata vecinătate unde va dezvolta un alt proiect. „Concurenţa nu te lasă să te culci pe o ureche. Am proiectat deja un mic Centru sportiv şi de întreţinere care va diversifica oferta noastră şi pentru perioada de primăvară-toamnă. Pot spune că în ultimii 2-3 ani lucrurile s-au aşezat bine. Lucrăm armonios cu operatori de turism interesaţi de programe interne. Avem contracte cu agenţii din Timişoara, Cluj şi din Ungaria. Avem turişti străini care vin în principal pe programe de seniori.

Un loc dăruit de Doina şi Teodor Grigore
\r\nDacă vă întrebaţi cu ce vă puteţi umple timpul într-un mod cât mai relaxant aici la Eşelniţa, aveţi destule opţiuni. Un loc dăruit pe pământ este Muzeul de etnografie, de fapt un muzeu privat, amenajat în casa în care locuiesc Doina şi Teodor Grigore, proprietarii lui. Teodor, un tip comunicativ ne spune că „totul a crescut aici natural, de la sine. De 4 decenii ne ocupăm de acest loc. Cele 4 nepoţele ale noastre au crescut într-o căsuţă de poveşti. Avem colecţii foarte diferite, de la obiecte utile la treburile casnice până la cele necesare la muncile câmpului. Obiectele pentru meşteşuguri, colecţii de chei ori de forme pentru prăjituri - bănăţencele fiind renumite pentru pasiunea de a face dulciuri în casă”. Fiecare obiect are povestea lui, dar cele mai multe sunt grupate în jurul costumelor populare şi a picturilor. Ele sunt zise şi rotunjite cu talent de către Doina, o femeie în care pasiunea pentru frumos n-are vârstă.

O provocare: WEEKEND LA EŞELNIŢA\nV-aţi săturat până-n gât de aceleaşi drumuri spre litoral sau staţiunile montane? Atunci aflaţi că puteţi petrece un weekend absolut domnesc pe malul Dunării, la Eşelniţa. Adică în inima Clisurii Dunării. Ce să căutaţi acolo? Să vedem!\n\n\nLa un sfârşit de săptămână torid ne-am întâlnit cu Ioan Ciuru, care a ajuns la al patrulea mandat de când conduce comuna Eşelniţa. La Centrul Internaţional România-Serbia, unde se află şi Centrul de Perfecţionare Eşelniţa, primarul şi-a exprimat convingerea că urbea pe care o conduce va avea un cuvânt de spus pe piaţa turistică naţională. În faţa operatorilor şi ai presei de turism el a prezentat esenţa unui program „Weekend la Eşelniţa”, ce beneficiază de finanţare europeană. Prin acesta se urmăreşte creşterea cu 25% a circulaţiei turistice în zonă. Desigur, este mare nevoie de promovarea obiectivelor turistice, majoritatea cu valoare de unicat prin metode de marketing specific.

\r\nSofi Oksanen, s-a născut în 1977. Cărţile ei au fost traduse în 38 de limbi. A studiat dramaturgia la Academia de Teatru din Helsinki şi literatura la universitatea din oraşul natal, Jyväskylä. Prima ei carte, „Vacile lui Stalin” a scris-o în 2003, nuvelă care a propulsat-o pe scena literară naţională. De asemenea este autoarea romanului „Purificare”, ce va fi transpus pe scenă de către Teatrul Naţional Finlandez. Volumul, care rememorează timpuri dramatice, a apărut în circa 40 de ţări. Fiind jumătate finlandeză şi jumătate estonă, ea s-a poziţionat la graniţa culoturală dintre Vest şi Est. În anul 2009 a fost declarată „Personalitatea anului” în Estonia. Sofi Oksanen este, probabil, singura scriitoare din vestică care subliniază faptul că Europa de Vest nu înţelege istoria Europei de Est pentru că nu a experimentat anii de guvernare totalitară. Sofi a avut amabilitatea să răspundă, la câteva întrebări puse de colaboratorul nostru din Phoenix (Arizona).\r\n\r\n- În momentul de faţă te afli în mai multe topuri cu romane bestseller întocmite din ţările nordice ale Europei, dar cărţile au fost remarcate de mass-media internaţională. Ai dobândit mai multe premii de anvergură, cum ar fi „The Finlandia Award” şi „Premiul Comitetului de Literatură” din ţările nordice, în 2012. Eşti cel mai tânăr autor care obţine aceste distincţii. Ce presupune să devii un scriitor de succes?\r\n\r\n- Să scrie. Nu există nicio reţetă pentru succes. Toţi autorii sunt diferiţi.\r\n\r\n- Ce limbă se vorbea în familia ta, tatăl tău fiind finlandez, iar mama estonă? Apropo, câte limbi cunoşti?\r\n\r\n- Finlandeza şi estona. Vorbesc engleză, de asemenea, puţină franceză şi suedeză şi pot să citesc ziarul în limba germană. Engleza, franceza şi germana le-am învăţat la şcoală.\r\n\r\n- Care este atitudinea finlandezilor faţă de educaţie? Prin ce se diferenţiază ţările scandinave de celelalte ţări din Europa? Ce similarităţi şi diferenţe există între acestea?\r\n\r\n- Să o luăm pe rând. Dacă nu provine de la şcolile finlandeze, educaţia nu este apreciată, în general. Prin urmare, pentru un emigrant este destul de dificil să obţină un job mai bun, chiar dacă vine din Statele Unite, Anglia sau alte ţări vest-europene. În Scandinavia avem mare libertate de exprimare, conştientizare a nevoii de protecţie a mediului înconjurător, iar nivelul de „egalitate” este mai mare decât în multe alte ţări. Suedia, Norvegia şi Danemarca aparţin aceluiaşi grup lingvistic. Finlanda este ca o fiică vitregă a ţărilor nordice. Finlandeza este o limbă foarte diferită faţă de suedeză, norvegiană şi daneză. Cu toate acestea, împărtăşim aceleaşi valori: nivel înalt de libertate de exprimare, egalitate etc.\r\n\r\n- Ce are unic în Finlanda? Ce locuri merită vizitate în ţara ta? Ce cărţi citesc de obicei conaţionalii tăi?\r\n\r\n- Îmi place Helsinki, capitala ţării. Turiştii, de obicei aleg Lapland. De asemenea, unii vizitatori se bucură de faptul că avem patru anotimpuri. Cel mai mult sunt căutate romanele istorice, mai mult de ficţiune decât non-fiction, şi mai mult scrise de autori indigeni decât de autori traduşi. Finlandezii citesc. Finlandezii vizitează bibliotecile, cred, mai mult decât orice altă naţionalitate din lume.\r\n\r\n- Ce locuri ai vizitat în Statele Unite?\r\n\r\n- Arizona este un loc pe tabla de joc a copiilor. Este foarte popular în Finlanda sau cel puţin a fost, când eram copil. Am vizitat New York City, Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Washington D. C. şi alte câteva oraşe.\r\n\r\n- Recent, ai călătorit în România. Ce te-a impresionat ?\r\n\r\n- Românii sunt oameni ca toţi oamenii din lume. Mi-a dat de gândit situaţia politică din România, o ţară cu tradiţie în corupţie. Lumea politică este coruptă „la greu”. Oamenii nu votează într-un procent însemnat, pentru că găsesc inutil să voteze. Votul pare că nu are nicio însemnătate. Există locuri interesante de vizitat.

INVESTIŢII\r\nUn nou hotel în Centrul Istoric\r\nDupă un îndelungat proces de renovare a unei vechi clădiri din Centrul istoric al Capitalei, amplasată în vecinătatea Hanului lui Manuc, a intrat în circuitul turistic hotelul Europa Royale. El aduce pe piaţă 92 de camere, 2 săli de conferinţă un lounge bar şi un restaurant cu o capacitate de 85 de persoane. Complexul face parte din lanţul Europa Group Hotels, care deţine în portofoliu 622 de camere operate în 6 oraşe din Europa. Conceptul global promovat de către investitori este dezvoltat şi la Bucureşti în sensul că toate hotelurile din grup au fost deschise în clădiri localizate în centrele vechi ale oraşelor, în clădiri istorice restaurate şi recondiţionate. Noul hotel care activează la un standard de 4 stele este condus de o echipă tânără cu o experienţă bogată, acumulată în hoteluri similare din Lituania şi Letonia.
\r\nBuzău – Gata încă un proiect\r\nComplexul hotelier Pietroasa din Buzău a cunoscut o nouă extindere. Proiectul ce a stat la baza acesteia a fost finanţat din fonduri europene nerambursabile în cadrul POR - Regio, având o valoare totală de 13.154.779 de lei. În cadrul acestuia au fost prevăzută dezvoltarea unei noi structuri de cazare cu 30 de camere şi 60 de locuri. Dintre acestea 24 sunt duble şi 6 apartamente, toate fiind dotate la un standard de 4 stele. Investiţiile s-au derulat pe parcursul a doi ani.
\r\nREPOZIŢIONARE\r\nDe la 5 la 4 stele\r\nCrowne Plaza din Bucureşti, hotel deţinut de George Copos, a anunţat că doreşte o declasificare de la 5 stele la 4 stele pentru o mai bună repoziţionare pe piaţa turistică. În acest sens managementul a solicitat Ministerului Turismului acordarea unui certificat de clasificare de 4 stele ca nivel de confort pentru toate camerele tip standard. Crowne Plaza operează 164 de camere. Directorul general al complexului Franz Rattenstetter, a declarat că repoziţionarea este marcată nu numai de o mai bună vizibilitate pe piaţa românească ci şi din dorinţa de a se alinia la standardul InterContinental Hotels Group, care plaseaza brandul Crowne Plaza la nivel upscale, el activând în alte ţări la nivel de 4 stele.

INTRARE ÎN PIAŢĂ MELODIA – o atracţie de vacanţă\nCel mai elegant hotel design intrat în circuitul turistic pe litoralul românesc al Mării Negre este Melodia. Amplasat în staţiunea Venus el propune consumatorilor de vacanţă o altă perspectivă de a-şi petrece timpul liber. Amplasat pe un domeniu de circa 10.000 de metri pătraţi el dispune de 8 apartamente, 30 de camere matrimoniale şi 73 de camere duble. Toate beneficiază de balcoane protejate de sisteme parasolare, sunt modelate pe baza unor concepte de design confortabil, de finisaje şi accesorii de calitate superioară, toate contribuind la crearea unei atmosfere plăcute şi relaxante.\nÎncă din zona de primire şi recepţie veţi fi suprinşi de atmosfera creată prin mobilierul şi articolele decorative futuriste. Deşi este vândut pe piaţă ca un complex de 3 stele Hotelul Melodia oferă facilităţi de 4 şi 5 stele printre care se numără sistemele de climatizare independente, televiziune, internet wireless, minibar, seif iar pentru turiştii preocupaţi de întreţinerea fizică un complex de fitness echipat cu aparatură profesională, aer climatizat şi purificat automat, saună, spaţii pentru relaxare şi şedinţe de masaj. Cele două piscine descoperite – pentru adulţi şi copii – sunt cu apă încălzită, iar barul, terasa şi cafeneaua sunt „decorate” pe perioada nopţii de o fântână arteziană cu orgă de lumini al cărui spectacol va contribui la o petrecerea unei vacanţe de neuitat. Reţineţi acest hotel. E mai mult decât atât.

După mai mulţi ani în care fostul complex „Steaua de Mare”, a fost destructurat fără pricepere, i s-a schimbat numele în „Britannia”- ce are aia cu prefectura nu a aflat nimeni -, după care a intrat în insolvenţă, în conservare şi autodistrugere, iată că a apărut o tranzacţie salvatoare. „Revoluţionarul” pare să fie omul de afaceri Nicolae Bucovală, care a achiziţionat complexul, cândva fanion din Eforie Nord, contra sumei de 4 milioane de euro. Cum turismul este plin de bârfe, noi am prefera să fie la fel de populat şi de turişti, se vehiculează că Bucovală este doar umbrela în spatele căruia sunt grupaţi mai mulţi investitori potenţi care nu sunt interesaţi de publicitate mondenă şi facilă. Sincer vorbind după atâta distrugere în masă, la foc automat, a complexelor de pe litoralul românesc, nici nu contează numele lor. Ci ce vor reuşi să facă aceştia, după epoca familiei Triţă Făniţă, Dumnezeu să-l odihnească. La ora când am inspectat complexul Nicolae Bucovală ne-a arătat finisajele primului hotel şi a restaurantului aferent. El spunea că investiţia se va ridica la circa 8 milioane de euro. Complexul Steaua de Mare cuprinde trei hoteluri, care cumulează 700 de camere, trei restaurante, o sală de conferinţe, braserie, cofetărie şi piscină, având o suprafaţă totală construită de aproape 30.000 de metri pătraţi. Delfinul şi Meduza din cadrul complexului vor activa la 4 stele şi, respectiv, 3 stele. Cea de-a treia unitate, Steaua de Mare, va fi clasificată la 2 stele. Se va merge pe un concept all-inclusive dar şi pe demipensiune, în funcţie de cerere. Marea problemă rămâne însă baza de tratament legată ombilical de hotel şi care aparţine Ministerului Sănătăţii. Aici este mărul otrăvit. Omul de afaceri a investit în modernizarea acesteia cu speranţa că şi-o va putea adjudeca.

După mai mulţi ani în care fostul complex „Steaua de Mare”, a fost destructurat fără pricepere, i s-a schimbat numele în „Britannia”- ce are aia cu prefectura nu a aflat nimeni -, după care a intrat în insolvenţă, în conservare şi autodistrugere, iată că a apărut o tranzacţie salvatoare. „Revoluţionarul” pare să fie omul de afaceri Nicolae Bucovală, care a achiziţionat complexul, cândva fanion din Eforie Nord, contra sumei de 4 milioane de euro. Cum turismul este plin de bârfe, noi am prefera să fie la fel de populat şi de turişti, se vehiculează că Bucovală este doar umbrela în spatele căruia sunt grupaţi mai mulţi investitori potenţi care nu sunt interesaţi de publicitate mondenă şi facilă.

La ora când am inspectat complexul Nicolae Bucovală ne-a arătat finisajele primului hotel şi a restaurantului aferent. El spunea că investiţia se va ridica la circa 8 milioane de euro. Complexul Steaua de Mare cuprinde trei hoteluri, care cumulează 700 de camere, trei restaurante, o sală de conferinţe, braserie, cofetărie şi piscină, având o suprafaţă totală construită de aproape 30.000 de metri pătraţi.

\r\nDupă Sfântul Munte Athos, Meteora este cel de al doilea centru monastic ortodox al Greciei, ca mărime şi importanţă şi atrage ca un magnet turiştii, cu relieful şi cu spiritualitatea sa extraordinară. Stâncile cu pereţi abrupţi şi înălţimi ameţitoare, care se înalţă în nord-vestul Tessaliei, între crestele Koziakas şi Antichassia, constituie unul din cele mai impresionante minuni ale planetei. Pe vârfurile cele mai greu accesibile, fără vegetaţie, s-a înfiripat viaţa monahală încă din secolul al IX-lea. Piscurile aflate deasupra oraşului Kalambaka şi satului Kastraki, au fost numite “Meteora”, în secolul al XIV-lea, de către cuviosul Atanasie ctitorul Mânăstirii Marele Meteor. De atunci, au luat fiinţă: 24 de mânăstiri, alături de altele preexistente, numeroase mânăstiri mici, locuri ascetice, chilii, sălaşuri de rugăciune, locuri de sihăstrie, peşteri, locuri de claustrare, stâlpnicii, împrăştiate pe toate stâncile meteorice. Pentru valoarea sa creştină, istorică, arhitectonică, artistică şi geografică, Meteora este recunoscută şi ocrotită de UNESCO şi de alte organizaţii internaţionale. Teritoriul Sfintei Meteora a fost proclamat, din octombrie 1995, “loc sfânt, imuabil şi inviolabil”, ceea ce-i asigură protecţia şi-i garantează autenticitatea.

\r\nNu ai căutat până acum ofertele agenţiilor de turism pentru Bora Bora? Destinaţia e denumită, pe bună dreptate, insula visurilor. Peisajele psihedelice, apele limpezi care udă poalele insulei din arhipelagul Polineziei Franceze şi varietatea impresionantă de activităţi satisfac cei mai pretenţioşi vizitatori. Supranumită şi Perla Pacificului, Bora Bora te cucereşte cu un amalgam de nuanţe de bleu, cu lagune de culoarea turcoazului şi vegetaţia abundentă din jurul vulcanului Otemanu.\r\nVrei să pleci în Luna de miere sau în vacanţă cu familia? Ai ales locul potrivit! Privită de sus Bora Bora a fost comparată cu „un mic smarald într-o mare de turcoaz, înconjurat de un şirag de perle sclipitoare”. Vederea insulei de pe aeroport, aflat la 20 de minute cu barca de satul principal, Vaitape, îţi va tăia răsuflarea. În sud-estul insulei poţi vizita, Grădina de Corali, un parc subacvatic natural, în largul Pont Matira îţi vei putea bucura privirea cu graţioasele pisici şi vulpi de mare, pe care, cu puţin curaj, le poţi mângâia în timp ce sunt hrănite. La intrarea în strâmtoare vei putea admira şi spectacolul inedit oferit de rechini cenuşii şi baracude.\r\nDar poate vrei adrenalină şi distracţie. În Bora Bora, nu ai cum să ratezi măcar o şedinţă de snorkeling. Sunt recomandate excursiile cu jet ski-ul sau şedinţele de scuba diving care se încheie cu obţinerea unui brevet de scufundător. Vrei mai multă aventură? Ia-ţi inima în dinţi şi mergi să hrăneşti rechinii din Pacific, bifând o activitate foarte căutată de turiştii care ajung în Bora Bora, Shark Feeding. Poţi înota printre rechinii flămânzi, sau te poţi distra în timpul unui Aqua Safari, unde ai ocazia să te plimbi pe lângă peretele de coral, la sub 35 de metri, cu o cască de scafandru. Ai posibilitatea să vezi Bora Bora de la înălţime, într-un tur cu elicopterul sau practicând parasailingul. Alege să descoperi mai multe din interiorul absolut fascinant, vulcanic al insulei, într-o excursie cu o maşină 4X4. Nu e de ratat nici vizita la ferma de perle, situată pe insula principală, pentru a admira simbolul Polineziei Franceze. \r\n\r\n\r\n
BUNĂ ZIUA TUNISIA !\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Tunisia5716.jpg\" "\\"Tunisia5716\\"")

\r\nCum se va ajunge la acest obiectiv? Este o întrebare la care răspunde domnul Farid Fetui, director de promovare în cadrul Oficiului National de Turism din Tunisia. Una dintre amabilele gazde cu care ne-am întâlnit în Infotripul tematic la care am dat curs. Farid ne spune într-o convorbire relaxată că “Vom pune la punct o strategie de comunicare, o strategie comercială, vom invita în Tunisia mai mulţi agenţi de turism, care se vor convinge ei înşişi de frumuseţea ţării noastre. Turismul reprezintă 8% din produsul intern brut al Tunisiei. Se înţelege că pentru economia ţării noastre, sectorul turistic este vital, aş putea spune. În turism lucrează, fie direct, fie indirect, mai bine de un milion de oameni, în condiţiile în care întreaga populaţie a ţării noastre este de 10 milioane. Turismul este, de fapt, coloana vertebrală a economiei tunisiene. De la nord la sud, avem mai bine de 8 regiuni turistice ».\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Tunisia5830.jpg\" "\\"Tunisia5830\\"")
![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Tunisia6086.jpg\" "\\"Tunisia6086\\"")
\r\nAceastă piaţă este susţinută de o infrastructură turistică bine… setată. Există multe hoteluri de 5 şi 4 stele... În total, 850 de hoteluri cu 250.000 de locuri care sunt puse în valoare de peste 500 de agenţii de turism. În Tunisia există 8 aeroporturi, câte unul în fiecare dintre cele 8 regiuni turisice, şi mai multe companii aeriene. Pe lângă cea naţională, TunisAir, există şi transporatori privaţi (Syphax, Nouvelair, TunisAir Express) care efectuează, în special, zboruri charter.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Tunisia6090.jpg\" "\\"Tunisia6090\\"")
\r\nŞi acum la drum !\r\nDacă eşti la prima călătorie în Tunsia, vei rămane cu siguranţă fascinat. Încă înainte de a pune piciorul pe pământ tunisian, eşti impresionat de albastrul aprins al Mediteranei, al uşilor şi ferestrelor caselor. Această ţară a culorilor şi contrastelor, a parfumurilor şi aromelor, te invită să te bucuri de o frumuseţe naturală. Pentru un turist sofisticat, Tunisia oferă o veritabilă colecţie de situri antice impresionante. Romanii au întemeiat mai mult de 200 de oraşe în Tunisia, fiind prima colonie la sud de Mediterana. Moştenirea acestei civilizaţii numără în prezent peste 26.000 de situri arheologice, multe încă aşteptând să fie excavate şi amenajate.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Farid-Fetui-presedinte-ONT-Tunisia.jpg\" "\\"Farid")
De la Ksar Ezzit la El Jem\r\nDacă vrei să scapi de tumultul mării şi de forfota oraşelor, poţi merge până la Ksar Ezzit, un domeniu 100% ecologic, un paradis natural cu privelişti extraordinare. Ksar Ezzit este la 60 de km de Tunis, în inima ţării, în parcul Zagouan. Aici găsiţi una dintre cele mai mari ferme de ulei organic de măsline. Şapte vile de lux de diferite mărimi sunt împrăşitate de-a lungul domeniului. Fiecare are o arhitectură aparte reprezentând câte o zonă a Tunisiei. Plimbările, înotul sau călăritul pot completa câteva zile în natură pe care le puteţi petrece mai ales toamna când se prelucrează măslinele.\r\nDacă veţi ajunge la El Jem veţi constata că Colosseumul din Roma nu este unic. Aici există un amfiteatru mult mai complet. Şi mai bine păstrat. Cândva sângeros astăzi este locul de desfăsurare al unuia dintre cele mai renumite festivaluri internaţionale de muzică clasică. Amfiteatrul El Jem e al doilea amfiteatru ca mărime din lume din perioada romană ce s-a păstrat până în zilele noastre. Vestitul Colosseum a fost construit în 230 d. Ch. ca să rivalizeze cu cel de la Roma. Lungimea totală a elipsei amfiteatrului este de 149 de metri. Edificiul face parte din Patrimoniul Mondial UNESCO.
\r\nDe la Djerba în căutarea lui Ulise\r\nExotică, pentru că e africană, mai puţin cunoscută, paradis al celor care se topesc după plaje întinse şi cu nisipuri fine, insulă a păsărilor flamingo şi oazelor cu mii de palmieri. Se spune chiar că ar fi tărâmul consumatorilor de lotus, descris de Homer în “Odiseea” lui Ulise. Oriunde te uiţi dai peste fericiţi veniţi să stea la soare, să se relaxeze şi să mănânce fructe de mare sau să colinde oazele. Djerba fascinează prin arhitectura caselor albe şi pătrăţoase, pentru aspectul enigmatic, dar şi pentru castelul piraţilor sau grădinile umbroase. Muzica tamburinelor te învăluie, dansatorii Gougou de la Midoun te vrăjesc.\r\nDacă n-aţi fost trebuie să ajungeţi şi pe Planeta Tatooine. E un loc fictiv, care există doar în imaginaţia lui George Lucas, regizorul “Războiului stelelor”. Totuşi, cei care doresc să trăiască experienţa unei călătorii interstelare până pe planeta lui Luke Skywalker pot opta pentru un drum ceva mai scurt: o excursie în Tataoine, unde decorurile filmelor au rămas intacte. Numele planetei Tatooine provine de fapt de la o regiune cât se poate de reală, situată în sudul Tunisiei şi numită Tataoine. În limba berberă, numele provinciei înseamnă izvor.
\r\nNu uitaţi nici de Cartagina
\r\nNe oprim pentru o vreme şi la lacul sărat Chott el Djérid, una dintre principalele atracţii pe drumul Douz -Tozeur. A apărut în urma mişcărilor tectonice ale pământului acum 1,5 milioane de ani şi este cel mai mare lac sărat nord-african şi se situează între Golful Gabes şi frontiera algeriană. Oprirea oferă turiştilor posibilitatea de a cumpără trandafiri de deşert, cel mai ieftin suvenir din sudul Tunisiei. De aici vă puteţi îndrepta spre Cartagina, un alt loc loc care trebuie neapărat explorat pentru Ruinele sale, cu o puternică încărcătură istorică. Niciunul din Tunisia nu are o rezonanţă mai mare decât Cartagina, unde multe vestigii au fost scoase la iveală de UNESCO. În fine nu trebuie să rataţi Sidi Bou Said, o aşezare plasată în vârful stâncilor, ce oferă o privelişte spectaculoasă asupra Golfului Tunis. Oraşul a fost numit după Sidi Bou Said, un sfânt sufist, care s-a asezat aici la întoarcerea din pelerinajul său la Mecca. La începutul secolului al XVIII-lea, Hassan ibn Ali Bey a ordonat construirea unei moschei. Astăzi scările şi intrarea la Cafe des Nattes stau pe exact acelaşi loc. Café des Nattes este locul fierbinte al oraşului şi era punctul favorit de întâlnire al artiştilor avangardişti care veneau aici. A rămas la fel de popular şi azi ca pe vremurile când Simone de Beauvoir, Andre Gide, Jean-Paul Sartre, Guy de Maupassant sau Gustave Flaubert frecventau localul. Şi câte lucruri fascinante veţi mai putea afla ! Inclusiv despre moştenirea lăsată aici de George Sebastian, un român considerat drept un iniţiator al turismului tunisian. Asta o să aflaţi de la Fued Frini, probabil cel mai bun ghid de limbă română din Tunisia. Merită să-l cunoaşteţi.

În funcţie de buget, de preferinţe, de timp…\nMETEORA - între lumesc şi divin\n\nDupă Sfântul Munte Athos, Meteora este cel de al doilea centru monastic ortodox al Greciei, ca mărime şi importanţă şi atrage ca un magnet turiştii, cu relieful şi cu spiritualitatea sa extraordinară. Stâncile cu pereţi abrupţi şi înălţimi ameţitoare, care se înalţă în nord-vestul Tessaliei, între crestele Koziakas şi Antichassia, constituie unul din cele mai impresionante minuni ale planetei. Pe vârfurile cele mai greu accesibile, fără vegetaţie, s-a înfiripat viaţa monahală încă din secolul al IX-lea. Piscurile aflate deasupra oraşului Kalambaka şi satului Kastraki, au fost numite “Meteora”, în secolul al XIV-lea, de către cuviosul Atanasie ctitorul Mânăstirii Marele Meteor. De atunci, au luat fiinţă: 24 de mânăstiri, alături de altele preexistente, numeroase mânăstiri mici, locuri ascetice, chilii, sălaşuri de rugăciune, locuri de sihăstrie, peşteri, locuri de claustrare, stâlpnicii, împrăştiate pe toate stâncile meteorice. Pentru valoarea sa creştină, istorică, arhitectonică, artistică şi geografică, Meteora este recunoscută şi ocrotită de UNESCO şi de alte organizaţii internaţionale. Teritoriul Sfintei Meteora a fost proclamat, din octombrie 1995, “loc sfânt, imuabil şi inviolabil”, ceea ce-i asigură protecţia şi-i garantează autenticitatea.\n\nBORA BORA - Relaxare în Perla Pacificului\n\nNu ai căutat până acum ofertele agenţiilor de turism pentru Bora Bora? Destinaţia e denumită, pe bună dreptate, insula visurilor. Peisajele psihedelice, apele limpezi care udă poalele insulei din arhipelagul Polineziei Franceze şi varietatea impresionantă de activităţi satisfac cei mai pretenţioşi vizitatori. Supranumită şi Perla Pacificului, Bora Bora te cucereşte cu un amalgam de nuanţe de bleu, cu lagune de culoarea turcoazului şi vegetaţia abundentă din jurul vulcanului Otemanu.\nVrei să pleci în Luna de miere sau în vacanţă cu familia? Ai ales locul potrivit! Privită de sus Bora Bora a fost comparată cu „un mic smarald într-o mare de turcoaz, înconjurat de un şirag de perle sclipitoare”. Vederea insulei de pe aeroport, aflat la 20 de minute cu barca de satul principal, Vaitape, îţi va tăia răsuflarea. În sud-estul insulei poţi vizita, Grădina de Corali, un parc subacvatic natural, în largul Pont Matira îţi vei putea bucura privirea cu graţioasele pisici şi vulpi de mare, pe care, cu puţin curaj, le poţi mângâia în timp ce sunt hrănite. La intrarea în strâmtoare vei putea admira şi spectacolul inedit oferit de rechini cenuşii şi baracude.\nDar poate vrei adrenalină şi distracţie. În Bora Bora, nu ai cum să ratezi măcar o şedinţă de snorkeling. Sunt recomandate excursiile cu jet ski-ul sau şedinţele de scuba diving care se încheie cu obţinerea unui brevet de scufundător. Vrei mai multă aventură? Ia-ţi inima în dinţi şi mergi să hrăneşti rechinii din Pacific, bifând o activitate foarte căutată de turiştii care ajung în Bora Bora, Shark Feeding. Poţi înota printre rechinii flămânzi, sau te poţi distra în timpul unui Aqua Safari, unde ai ocazia să te plimbi pe lângă peretele de coral, la sub 35 de metri, cu o cască de scafandru. Ai posibilitatea să vezi Bora Bora de la înălţime, într-un tur cu elicopterul sau practicând parasailingul. Alege să descoperi mai multe din interiorul absolut fascinant, vulcanic al insulei, într-o excursie cu o maşină 4X4. Nu e de ratat nici vizita la ferma de perle, situată pe insula principală, pentru a admira simbolul Polineziei Franceze.
\n
BUNĂ ZIUA TUNISIA !\n\n\n“Ne bucurăm că sunteţi la noi acasă. Sper că v-aţi convins că suntem o ţară foarte frumoasă. Tunisia nu este o ţară mare, dar este foarte variată. Iar românii formează, pentru noi, o clientelă căreia dorim să-i stârnim interesul, pentru că românii ştiu să cheltuie. În 2009, Tunisia a fost vizitată de 35.000 de români. Însă anul trecut, abia dacă au fost 6.000 de români. Obiectivul nostru, pentru următorii 3 ani, este să aducem 100.000 de români ».\n
Cum se va ajunge la acest obiectiv? Este o întrebare la care răspunde domnul Farid Fetui, director de promovare în cadrul Oficiului National de Turism din Tunisia. Una dintre amabilele gazde cu care ne-am întâlnit în Infotripul tematic la care am dat curs. Farid ne spune într-o convorbire relaxată că “Vom pune la punct o strategie de comunicare, o strategie comercială, vom invita în Tunisia mai mulţi agenţi de turism, care se vor convinge ei înşişi de frumuseţea ţării noastre. Turismul reprezintă 8% din produsul intern brut al Tunisiei. Se înţelege că pentru economia ţării noastre, sectorul turistic este vital, aş putea spune. În turism lucrează, fie direct, fie indirect, mai bine de un milion de oameni, în condiţiile în care întreaga populaţie a ţării noastre este de 10 milioane. Turismul este, de fapt, coloana vertebrală a economiei tunisiene. De la nord la sud, avem mai bine de 8 regiuni turistice ».\n\n\nCare este cântecul sirenei ?\nPentru ce v-aţi îndrepta spre Tunisia ? Poate pentru superbul deşert din sud. În sud-est se află celebra insulă Djerba. Nu uitaţi de Hammamet, Sousse, Tunis, Monastir, Mahdia sau Tabarka, în nord, un oraş foarte frumos. Iar Kairouan este al patrulea oraş sfânt al islamului, un oraş cu o impresionantă dimensiune culturală. Anual, Tunisia este vizitată de 7 milioane de turişti. Dintre aceştia, 70% sunt europeni, iar cei mai mulţi sunt francezi. 1.400.000 de francezi vizitează Tunisia, în fiecare an. Urmează cei germani, englezi, italieni, ruşi. Gazda noastră speră că, în curând, şi românii vor urca în acest top. “Lumea ne caută, în special, pentru marea foarte frumoasă. Soarele străluceşte pe litoral 6 luni pe an. Ne caută, însă, şi pentru… talasoterapie. Suntem din ce în ce mai căutaţi de către organizatorii de conferinţe, seminarii, evenimente, congrese. Este o piaţă în plină dezvoltare ».\n\nAceastă piaţă este susţinută de o infrastructură turistică bine… setată. Există multe hoteluri de 5 şi 4 stele... În total, 850 de hoteluri cu 250.000 de locuri care sunt puse în valoare de peste 500 de agenţii de turism. În Tunisia există 8 aeroporturi, câte unul în fiecare dintre cele 8 regiuni turisice, şi mai multe companii aeriene. Pe lângă cea naţională, TunisAir, există şi transporatori privaţi (Syphax, Nouvelair, TunisAir Express) care efectuează, în special, zboruri charter.\n
Şi acum la drum !\nDacă eşti la prima călătorie în Tunsia, vei rămane cu siguranţă fascinat. Încă înainte de a pune piciorul pe pământ tunisian, eşti impresionat de albastrul aprins al Mediteranei, al uşilor şi ferestrelor caselor. Această ţară a culorilor şi contrastelor, a parfumurilor şi aromelor, te invită să te bucuri de o frumuseţe naturală. Pentru un turist sofisticat, Tunisia oferă o veritabilă colecţie de situri antice impresionante. Romanii au întemeiat mai mult de 200 de oraşe în Tunisia, fiind prima colonie la sud de Mediterana. Moştenirea acestei civilizaţii numără în prezent peste 26.000 de situri arheologice, multe încă aşteptând să fie excavate şi amenajate.\n\n
\nDe la Ksar Ezzit la El Jem\nDacă vrei să scapi de tumultul mării şi de forfota oraşelor, poţi merge până la Ksar Ezzit, un domeniu 100% ecologic, un paradis natural cu privelişti extraordinare. Ksar Ezzit este la 60 de km de Tunis, în inima ţării, în parcul Zagouan. Aici găsiţi una dintre cele mai mari ferme de ulei organic de măsline. Şapte vile de lux de diferite mărimi sunt împrăşitate de-a lungul domeniului. Fiecare are o arhitectură aparte reprezentând câte o zonă a Tunisiei. Plimbările, înotul sau călăritul pot completa câteva zile în natură pe care le puteţi petrece mai ales toamna când se prelucrează măslinele.\nDacă veţi ajunge la El Jem veţi constata că Colosseumul din Roma nu este unic. Aici există un amfiteatru mult mai complet. Şi mai bine păstrat. Cândva sângeros astăzi este locul de desfăsurare al unuia dintre cele mai renumite festivaluri internaţionale de muzică clasică. Amfiteatrul El Jem e al doilea amfiteatru ca mărime din lume din perioada romană ce s-a păstrat până în zilele noastre. Vestitul Colosseum a fost construit în 230 d. Ch. ca să rivalizeze cu cel de la Roma. Lungimea totală a elipsei amfiteatrului este de 149 de metri. Edificiul face parte din Patrimoniul Mondial UNESCO.
\nDe la Djerba în căutarea lui Ulise\nExotică, pentru că e africană, mai puţin cunoscută, paradis al celor care se topesc după plaje întinse şi cu nisipuri fine, insulă a păsărilor flamingo şi oazelor cu mii de palmieri. Se spune chiar că ar fi tărâmul consumatorilor de lotus, descris de Homer în “Odiseea” lui Ulise. Oriunde te uiţi dai peste fericiţi veniţi să stea la soare, să se relaxeze şi să mănânce fructe de mare sau să colinde oazele. Djerba fascinează prin arhitectura caselor albe şi pătrăţoase, pentru aspectul enigmatic, dar şi pentru castelul piraţilor sau grădinile umbroase. Muzica tamburinelor te învăluie, dansatorii Gougou de la Midoun te vrăjesc.\nDacă n-aţi fost trebuie să ajungeţi şi pe Planeta Tatooine. E un loc fictiv, care există doar în imaginaţia lui George Lucas, regizorul “Războiului stelelor”. Totuşi, cei care doresc să trăiască experienţa unei călătorii interstelare până pe planeta lui Luke Skywalker pot opta pentru un drum ceva mai scurt: o excursie în Tataoine, unde decorurile filmelor au rămas intacte. Numele planetei Tatooine provine de fapt de la o regiune cât se poate de reală, situată în sudul Tunisiei şi numită Tataoine. În limba berberă, numele provinciei înseamnă izvor.
\nNu uitaţi nici de Cartagina
\nNe oprim pentru o vreme şi la lacul sărat Chott el Djérid, una dintre principalele atracţii pe drumul Douz -Tozeur. A apărut în urma mişcărilor tectonice ale pământului acum 1,5 milioane de ani şi este cel mai mare lac sărat nord-african şi se situează între Golful Gabes şi frontiera algeriană. Oprirea oferă turiştilor posibilitatea de a cumpără trandafiri de deşert, cel mai ieftin suvenir din sudul Tunisiei. De aici vă puteţi îndrepta spre Cartagina, un alt loc loc care trebuie neapărat explorat pentru Ruinele sale, cu o puternică încărcătură istorică. Niciunul din Tunisia nu are o rezonanţă mai mare decât Cartagina, unde multe vestigii au fost scoase la iveală de UNESCO. În fine nu trebuie să rataţi Sidi Bou Said, o aşezare plasată în vârful stâncilor, ce oferă o privelişte spectaculoasă asupra Golfului Tunis. Oraşul a fost numit după Sidi Bou Said, un sfânt sufist, care s-a asezat aici la întoarcerea din pelerinajul său la Mecca. La începutul secolului al XVIII-lea, Hassan ibn Ali Bey a ordonat construirea unei moschei. Astăzi scările şi intrarea la Cafe des Nattes stau pe exact acelaşi loc. Café des Nattes este locul fierbinte al oraşului şi era punctul favorit de întâlnire al artiştilor avangardişti care veneau aici. A rămas la fel de popular şi azi ca pe vremurile când Simone de Beauvoir, Andre Gide, Jean-Paul Sartre, Guy de Maupassant sau Gustave Flaubert frecventau localul. Şi câte lucruri fascinante veţi mai putea afla ! Inclusiv despre moştenirea lăsată aici de George Sebastian, un român considerat drept un iniţiator al turismului tunisian. Asta o să aflaţi de la Fued Frini, probabil cel mai bun ghid de limbă română din Tunisia. Merită să-l cunoaşteţi.

Între 9 iunie şi 20 septembrie, Capitala găzduieşte Festivalul “Bucureştii lui Caragiale” cel mai important dramaturg al literaturii româneşti. Organizat sub egida Primăriei Municipiului Bucureşti el marchează 100 de ani de la dispariţia scriitorului Ion Luca Caragiale prin 100 de spectacole care aduc în prim plan 100 de personalităţi autohtone care joacă pe scenele teatrelor Naţional, Nottara, de Comedie, Masca, Metropolis, a Operei Naţionale sau a Circului Globus.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Festival-Caragiale2.jpg\" "\\"Festival")
\r\nSpectacolele, veritabile puneri în scenă a unor fragmente din piesele dramaturgului, se desfăşoară în aer liber şi include numeroase schiţe şi momente întâlnite în proza lui Caragiale. Ele sunt prezentate în versiunea unor regizori ca Mihai Mălaimare, Diana Lupescu, Gelu Colceag etc. Mai mult, în anumite seri au loc proiecţii cu filme făcute în urmă cu zeci de ani, după creaţiile sale. Locurile de desfăşurare au fost alese special pentru a crea atmosfera necesară înţelegerii farmecului vremurilor de altădată – Centrul Istoric al oraşului, pe scena aflată la intersecţia străzilor Franceză cu Poştei, respectiv în vecinătatea Halei Traian, pe terasa unui nou restaurant ce se numeşte chiar “La Conu’ Iancu”, proprietate a lui Mircea Poenaru, om de afaceri în turism. El şi-a propus să reconstituie o parte din atmosfera boemei din perioada interbelică, cu tot dichisul cuvenit ofertei gastronomice stropită cu bere la halbă, în şpriţ rece, mititei şi cârnăciori, dulciuri, îngheţate şi alte delicatese.

\r\nCea de-a treia ediţie a Festivalului „Turnirul Cetăţilor”, se va desfăşura în acest an în 5 oraşe transilvane. Întrecerile cavalereşti, demostraţiile de vitejie, dansul şi masa, cum s-ar spune Calendarul manifestărilor pus la punct de către organizatori arată astfel. Prima s-a produs deja în Cetatea de la Râşnov, între 20 şi 22 iulie. Ea este urmată de reuniunile medievale din luna august, de la Cetăţuia Braşovului (pe 5 august), de pe platoul Inima Reginei Maria de la Castelul Bran (10-12 august), de la Cetatea Făgăraşului (16-19 august). Ceremoniile se vor încheia pe 31 august la Biserica Fortificată de la Feldioara.\r\n\r\n“Turnirul Cetăţilor” va fi şi anul acesta gazda Grădiniţei Medievale. Acolo se vor derula activităţi specifice copiilor de toate vârstele. Aceştia vor trăi cu ochii deschişi fragmente din poveştile medievale. Ca noutate organizatorii au pregătit ateliere meştesugăreşti unde copii vor învăţa cum să modeleze ceramica, să realizeze păpuşi tradiţionale sau să picteze pe lemn şi pe sticlă. Conceptul a fost îmbunătăţit cu programe artistice diversificate şi ca efecte şi ca animaţie. Vor fi prezenţi în funcţie de dimensiunea locaţiilor istorice între 30-80 de cavaleri şi domniţe care vor da culoare pieţei medievale şi vor prezenta aspecte cotidiene ale vieţii din Evul Mediu, vor dansa se vor lupta şi vor interacţiona cu publicul. Un punct de atracţie-fascinaţie îl constituie turnirul cu cai şi show-urile cu foc de la finalul fiecărui festival prezentate de trupa Hypnosiss. Fiecare eveniment va debuta cu parada personajelor pe muzica Cimpoierilor din Transilvania. În cadrul “Turnirului Cetăţilor” vor fi prezentate meşteşugurile româneşti, tradiţionale, iar artizani profesionişti vor dezvălui o parte din secretele lor. Vor fi de faţă fierari, sticlari, ceramişti, ţesătoare de broderii, pictori pe lemn şi sticlă, creatori de păpuşi tradiţionale create din materiale... ecologice, cum ar fi pănuşea de porumb, rachita etc. “Turnirul Cetăţilor” a devenit o atracţie turistică tradiţională prin ineditul ei. Numai anul trecut această serie de evenimente a contribuit la creşterea fluxului de turişti către judeţul Braşov, care a fost mai mare cu 18% faţă de 2010, conform Institutului Naţional de Statistică. Ne aşteptăm ca de cele 5 evenimente să fie atraşi circa 155.000 de turişti” – ne-a precizat Anemona Hermeneanu, directorul de PR al Asociaţiei de Promovare şi Dezvoltare Turistică Braşov. Revista noastră este unul dintre principalii Parteneri Media ai festivalului.\r\n\r\nAltfel spus, reamintim frazele cu care începe în fiecare an acest eveniment. Ele sunt în acelaşi timp şi o invitaţie: “La vremea când onoarea era cea mai de preţ virtute, bravi cavaleri au pornit la drum pentru a cere mâna preafrumoasei domniţe a principelui Transilvaniei şi pentru a primi Ţara Bârsei ca zestre cuvenită. Astfel s-au întâlnit şi, cum se cade între cavaleri, au hotărat să se întreacă în probe cavalereşti. A început „Turnirul Cetăţilor”! Fie ca cel mai bun să câştige!”\r\nMARA ANTON\r\n(Foto text & copertă BOGDAN GRĂDINARU)\r\n\r\nPROFESIONIŞTII RECUNOSC PROFESIONIŞTII\r\n\r\nÎntr-o atmosferă culturală foarte călduroasă, la propriu dar şi la figurat, cu ocazia vernisării unei noi ediţii a expoziţiei „Pictori la Balcic”, revista noastră a fost distinsă cu Diploma de excelenţă pentru promovarea evenimentelor culturale ale Muzeului Naţional Cotroceni, şi susţinerea parteneriatului cultural. Distincţia a fost înmânată Doinei Constantinescu, directorul general al companiei Convexus 2000, editorul publicaţiei „Traveller Magazin” de către Adina Renţea, directorul Muzeului.\r\n\r\n\r\nAceastă recunoaştere a susţinerii turismului cultural, se alătură celor peste 20 de premii, trofee şi diplome, primite de către grupul amintit în cei 15 ani de când dezvoltă piaţa presei româneşti de turism. O distincţie similară a revenit şi revistei „Vacanţe la Ţară”, condusă de Maria Stoian, preşedintele de onoare al ANTREC. Acestea sunt de altfel singurele publicaţii de turism care mai apar lunar în România.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Premiu-Traveller-Magazin.jpg\" "\\"Premiu")
\r\n\r\nSEMNĂTURI PENTRU „STORY & GLORY”\r\nPeste o sută de ambasadori acreditaţi la Bucureşti, personalităţi şi reprezentanţi ai presei de turism – printre care şi noi -, şi-au pus semnătura pe cele 3 canotci lansate la Târgul Internaţional Dunărea & Delta de către Asociaţia “Ivan Patzaichin – Mila 23”. Momentul inedit s-a produs la Complexul Romexpo cu ocazia lansării proiectului “Danube Connection. Story & Glory” a cărui misiune principală este de a promova activităţile recreative, a turismului ecologic şi al multiculturalităţii oferite de ţări riverane Dunării. Cele 3 ambarcaţiuni (canotci) – poartă numele braţelor Dunării - Chilia, Sulina, Sf. Gheorghe. Ele au fost produse într-un un atelier finanţat de către multiplu campion mondial Ivan Patzaichin şi vor forma o caravană ce va trece, cu tot cu autografele inscripţionate, prin 4 ţări dunărene riverane. Patzaichin a declarat că „Infrastructura publică poate consolida dezvoltarea activităţilor de turism. Dunărea este un spaţiu natural care este locuit de oameni. Pentru ei trebuie găsit un echilibru între natură şi activităţile economice. În acest scop am creat un circuit cu 10 amenajări turistice prin care vor trece canotcile. Primul se va deschide la Crişan cu susţinere financiară americană. Ne-am dori o puternică implicare a administraţiei locale care are numai de câştigat”. Prin această manifestare s-a dorit crearea unui simbol al cooperării dunărene.\r\n\r\nPARCUL CIŞMIGIU ESTE ÎN TOP\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Cismigiu.jpg\" "\\"Cismigiu\\"")

Organizat sub egida Primăriei Municipiului Bucureşti el marchează 100 de ani de la dispariţia scriitorului Ion Luca Caragiale prin 100 de spectacole care aduc în prim plan 100 de personalităţi autohtone care joacă pe scenele teatrelor Naţional, Nottara, de Comedie, Masca, Metropolis, a Operei Naţionale sau a Circului Globus.\n\nSpectacolele, veritabile puneri în scenă a unor fragmente din piesele dramaturgului, se desfăşoară în aer liber şi include numeroase schiţe şi momente întâlnite în proza lui Caragiale. Ele sunt prezentate în versiunea unor regizori ca Mihai Mălaimare, Diana Lupescu, Gelu Colceag etc. Mai mult, în anumite seri au loc proiecţii cu filme făcute în urmă cu zeci de ani, după creaţiile sale. Locurile de desfăşurare au fost alese special pentru a crea atmosfera necesară înţelegerii farmecului vremurilor de altădată – Centrul Istoric al oraşului, pe scena aflată la intersecţia străzilor Franceză cu Poştei, respectiv în vecinătatea Halei Traian, pe terasa unui nou restaurant ce se numeşte chiar “La Conu’ Iancu”, proprietate a lui Mircea Poenaru, om de afaceri în turism. El şi-a propus să reconstituie o parte din atmosfera boemei din perioada interbelică, cu tot dichisul cuvenit ofertei gastronomice stropită cu bere la halbă, în şpriţ rece, mititei şi cârnăciori, dulciuri, îngheţate şi alte delicatese. Mai multe amănunte despre programul spectacolelor aflaţi la adresa www.festivalcaragiale.ro.\n\nTURNIRUL CETĂŢILOR – ÎNTÂLNIRI CU CAVALERII AMINTIRILOR\n\nCea de-a treia ediţie a Festivalului „Turnirul Cetăţilor”, se va desfăşura în acest an în 5 oraşe transilvane. Întrecerile cavalereşti, demostraţiile de vitejie, dansul şi masa, cum s-ar spune Calendarul manifestărilor pus la punct de către organizatori arată astfel. Prima s-a produs deja în Cetatea de la Râşnov, între 20 şi 22 iulie. Ea este urmată de reuniunile medievale din luna august, de la Cetăţuia Braşovului (pe 5 august), de pe platoul Inima Reginei Maria de la Castelul Bran (10-12 august), de la Cetatea Făgăraşului (16-19 august). Ceremoniile se vor încheia pe 31 august la Biserica Fortificată de la Feldioara.\n\n“Turnirul Cetăţilor” va fi şi anul acesta gazda Grădiniţei Medievale. Acolo se vor derula activităţi specifice copiilor de toate vârstele. Aceştia vor trăi cu ochii deschişi fragmente din poveştile medievale. Ca noutate organizatorii au pregătit ateliere meştesugăreşti unde copii vor învăţa cum să modeleze ceramica, să realizeze păpuşi tradiţionale sau să picteze pe lemn şi pe sticlă. Conceptul a fost îmbunătăţit cu programe artistice diversificate şi ca efecte şi ca animaţie. Vor fi prezenţi în funcţie de dimensiunea locaţiilor istorice între 30-80 de cavaleri şi domniţe care vor da culoare pieţei medievale şi vor prezenta aspecte cotidiene ale vieţii din Evul Mediu, vor dansa se vor lupta şi vor interacţiona cu publicul. Un punct de atracţie-fascinaţie îl constituie turnirul cu cai şi show-urile cu foc de la finalul fiecărui festival prezentate de trupa Hypnosiss. Fiecare eveniment va debuta cu parada personajelor pe muzica Cimpoierilor din Transilvania. În cadrul “Turnirului Cetăţilor” vor fi prezentate meşteşugurile româneşti, tradiţionale, iar artizani profesionişti vor dezvălui o parte din secretele lor. Vor fi de faţă fierari, sticlari, ceramişti, ţesătoare de broderii, pictori pe lemn şi sticlă, creatori de păpuşi tradiţionale create din materiale... ecologice, cum ar fi pănuşea de porumb, rachita etc. “Turnirul Cetăţilor” a devenit o atracţie turistică tradiţională prin ineditul ei. Numai anul trecut această serie de evenimente a contribuit la creşterea fluxului de turişti către judeţul Braşov, care a fost mai mare cu 18% faţă de 2010, conform Institutului Naţional de Statistică. Ne aşteptăm ca de cele 5 evenimente să fie atraşi circa 155.000 de turişti” – ne-a precizat Anemona Hermeneanu, directorul de PR al Asociaţiei de Promovare şi Dezvoltare Turistică Braşov. Revista noastră este unul dintre principalii Parteneri Media ai festivalului.\n\nAltfel spus, reamintim frazele cu care începe în fiecare an acest eveniment. Ele sunt în acelaşi timp şi o invitaţie: “La vremea când onoarea era cea mai de preţ virtute, bravi cavaleri au pornit la drum pentru a cere mâna preafrumoasei domniţe a principelui Transilvaniei şi pentru a primi Ţara Bârsei ca zestre cuvenită. Astfel s-au întâlnit şi, cum se cade între cavaleri, au hotărat să se întreacă în probe cavalereşti. A început „Turnirul Cetăţilor”! Fie ca cel mai bun să câştige!”\nMARA ANTON\n(Foto text & copertă BOGDAN GRĂDINARU)\n\nPROFESIONIŞTII RECUNOSC PROFESIONIŞTII\n\nÎntr-o atmosferă culturală foarte călduroasă, la propriu dar şi la figurat, cu ocazia vernisării unei noi ediţii a expoziţiei „Pictori la Balcic”, revista noastră a fost distinsă cu Diploma de excelenţă pentru promovarea evenimentelor culturale ale Muzeului Naţional Cotroceni, şi susţinerea parteneriatului cultural. Distincţia a fost înmânată Doinei Constantinescu, directorul general al companiei Convexus 2000, editorul publicaţiei „Traveller Magazin” de către Adina Renţea, directorul Muzeului.\n\n\nAceastă recunoaştere a susţinerii turismului cultural, se alătură celor peste 20 de premii, trofee şi diplome, primite de către grupul amintit în cei 15 ani de când dezvoltă piaţa presei româneşti de turism. O distincţie similară a revenit şi revistei „Vacanţe la Ţară”, condusă de Maria Stoian, preşedintele de onoare al ANTREC. Acestea sunt de altfel singurele publicaţii de turism care mai apar lunar în România.\n\n\nSEMNĂTURI PENTRU „STORY & GLORY”\nPeste o sută de ambasadori acreditaţi la Bucureşti, personalităţi şi reprezentanţi ai presei de turism – printre care şi noi -, şi-au pus semnătura pe cele 3 canotci lansate la Târgul Internaţional Dunărea & Delta de către Asociaţia “Ivan Patzaichin – Mila 23”. Momentul inedit s-a produs la Complexul Romexpo cu ocazia lansării proiectului “Danube Connection. Story & Glory” a cărui misiune principală este de a promova activităţile recreative, a turismului ecologic şi al multiculturalităţii oferite de ţări riverane Dunării. Cele 3 ambarcaţiuni (canotci) – poartă numele braţelor Dunării - Chilia, Sulina, Sf. Gheorghe. Ele au fost produse într-un un atelier finanţat de către multiplu campion mondial Ivan Patzaichin şi vor forma o caravană ce va trece, cu tot cu autografele inscripţionate, prin 4 ţări dunărene riverane. Patzaichin a declarat că „Infrastructura publică poate consolida dezvoltarea activităţilor de turism. Dunărea este un spaţiu natural care este locuit de oameni. Pentru ei trebuie găsit un echilibru între natură şi activităţile economice. În acest scop am creat un circuit cu 10 amenajări turistice prin care vor trece canotcile. Primul se va deschide la Crişan cu susţinere financiară americană. Ne-am dori o puternică implicare a administraţiei locale care are numai de câştigat”. Prin această manifestare s-a dorit crearea unui simbol al cooperării dunărene.\n\nPARCUL CIŞMIGIU ESTE ÎN TOP\nPortalul Infoniac a afişat recent un Top al celor mai apreciate parcuri din Europa.

Wyacheslav Lozhko, Ukrainian journalist and writer, author of over 30 books, published a unique travel volume: “Discovery of Romania”. The documentation for this book has been made in 2011, during the 53rd World Federation of Travel Journalists & Writers (FIJET) Congres, organized by Romania. The 160 pages offer about 80 fotos showing images of Bucharest, Bucovina, Sibiu, Sighişoara, but also people and traditions that give uniqueness to these places. In one of the chapters Lozhko writes: “I have been simpli astonished by the beauty of the villages in Bucovina. Each house is a work of art in itself. It seems obvious that people have build them from the heart, giving spirit from theyr spirit. Each decoration is unique. I couldn’t take my eyes of all these beauty. I have been impressed by the excellent infrastructure that this Corner of Heaven in România has”. The book was published in Ukrainian and English.
Cismigiu is beautiful!\r\nWhy only visit museums or palaces? Parks are a treasure as well - and following this idea the Infoniac made an on-line top of the most appreciated parks all over Europe. The Cişmigiu public gardens in Bucharest are ranked number seven out of 10 selected destinations. Opened in 1854 this park follows the elegant project of the Viennese garden designer Carl Friederich Wilhelm Meyer.

The genuine „canotca” boats have been baptised by the Association “Ivan Patzaichin – Mila 23” at the International fair The Danube & Delta, held at Romexpo. The event is a part of the “Danube Connection. Story & Glory” project that aims to promote leisure activities, eco tourism and multicultural values in the countries that share the Danube waters. The three boats have been produced in a workshop financed by the multiple Romanian world champion Ivan Patzaichin. The “flowing” signature caravan will pass by four countries sharing the Danube.

Organizat sub egida Primăriei Municipiului Bucureşti el marchează 100 de ani de la dispariţia scriitorului Ion Luca Caragiale prin 100 de spectacole care aduc în prim plan 100 de personalităţi autohtone care joacă pe scenele teatrelor Naţional, Nottara, de Comedie, Masca, Metropolis, a Operei Naţionale sau a Circului Globus.\r\n\r\nSpectacolele, veritabile puneri în scenă a unor fragmente din piesele dramaturgului, se desfăşoară în aer liber şi include numeroase schiţe şi momente întâlnite în proza lui Caragiale. Ele sunt prezentate în versiunea unor regizori ca Mihai Mălaimare, Diana Lupescu, Gelu Colceag etc. Mai mult, în anumite seri au loc proiecţii cu filme făcute în urmă cu zeci de ani, după creaţiile sale. Locurile de desfăşurare au fost alese special pentru a crea atmosfera necesară înţelegerii farmecului vremurilor de altădată – Centrul Istoric al oraşului, pe scena aflată la intersecţia străzilor Franceză cu Poştei, respectiv în vecinătatea Halei Traian, pe terasa unui nou restaurant ce se numeşte chiar “La Conu’ Iancu”, proprietate a lui Mircea Poenaru, om de afaceri în turism. El şi-a propus să reconstituie o parte din atmosfera boemei din perioada interbelică, cu tot dichisul cuvenit ofertei gastronomice stropită cu bere la halbă, în şpriţ rece, mititei şi cârnăciori, dulciuri, îngheţate şi alte delicatese. Mai multe amănunte despre programul spectacolelor aflaţi la adresa www.festivalcaragiale.ro.\r\n\r\nTURNIRUL CETĂŢILOR – ÎNTÂLNIRI CU CAVALERII AMINTIRILOR\r\n\r\nCea de-a treia ediţie a Festivalului „Turnirul Cetăţilor”, se va desfăşura în acest an în 5 oraşe transilvane. Întrecerile cavalereşti, demostraţiile de vitejie, dansul şi masa, cum s-ar spune Calendarul manifestărilor pus la punct de către organizatori arată astfel. Prima s-a produs deja în Cetatea de la Râşnov, între 20 şi 22 iulie. Ea este urmată de reuniunile medievale din luna august, de la Cetăţuia Braşovului (pe 5 august), de pe platoul Inima Reginei Maria de la Castelul Bran (10-12 august), de la Cetatea Făgăraşului (16-19 august). Ceremoniile se vor încheia pe 31 august la Biserica Fortificată de la Feldioara.\r\n\r\n“Turnirul Cetăţilor” va fi şi anul acesta gazda Grădiniţei Medievale. Acolo se vor derula activităţi specifice copiilor de toate vârstele. Aceştia vor trăi cu ochii deschişi fragmente din poveştile medievale. Ca noutate organizatorii au pregătit ateliere meştesugăreşti unde copii vor învăţa cum să modeleze ceramica, să realizeze păpuşi tradiţionale sau să picteze pe lemn şi pe sticlă. Conceptul a fost îmbunătăţit cu programe artistice diversificate şi ca efecte şi ca animaţie. Vor fi prezenţi în funcţie de dimensiunea locaţiilor istorice între 30-80 de cavaleri şi domniţe care vor da culoare pieţei medievale şi vor prezenta aspecte cotidiene ale vieţii din Evul Mediu, vor dansa se vor lupta şi vor interacţiona cu publicul. Un punct de atracţie-fascinaţie îl constituie turnirul cu cai şi show-urile cu foc de la finalul fiecărui festival prezentate de trupa Hypnosiss. Fiecare eveniment va debuta cu parada personajelor pe muzica Cimpoierilor din Transilvania. În cadrul “Turnirului Cetăţilor” vor fi prezentate meşteşugurile româneşti, tradiţionale, iar artizani profesionişti vor dezvălui o parte din secretele lor. Vor fi de faţă fierari, sticlari, ceramişti, ţesătoare de broderii, pictori pe lemn şi sticlă, creatori de păpuşi tradiţionale create din materiale... ecologice, cum ar fi pănuşea de porumb, rachita etc. “Turnirul Cetăţilor” a devenit o atracţie turistică tradiţională prin ineditul ei. Numai anul trecut această serie de evenimente a contribuit la creşterea fluxului de turişti către judeţul Braşov, care a fost mai mare cu 18% faţă de 2010, conform Institutului Naţional de Statistică. Ne aşteptăm ca de cele 5 evenimente să fie atraşi circa 155.000 de turişti” – ne-a precizat Anemona Hermeneanu, directorul de PR al Asociaţiei de Promovare şi Dezvoltare Turistică Braşov. Revista noastră este unul dintre principalii Parteneri Media ai festivalului.\r\n\r\nAltfel spus, reamintim frazele cu care începe în fiecare an acest eveniment. Ele sunt în acelaşi timp şi o invitaţie: “La vremea când onoarea era cea mai de preţ virtute, bravi cavaleri au pornit la drum pentru a cere mâna preafrumoasei domniţe a principelui Transilvaniei şi pentru a primi Ţara Bârsei ca zestre cuvenită. Astfel s-au întâlnit şi, cum se cade între cavaleri, au hotărat să se întreacă în probe cavalereşti. A început „Turnirul Cetăţilor”! Fie ca cel mai bun să câştige!”\r\nMARA ANTON\r\n(Foto text & copertă BOGDAN GRĂDINARU)\r\n\r\nPROFESIONIŞTII RECUNOSC PROFESIONIŞTII\r\n\r\nÎntr-o atmosferă culturală foarte călduroasă, la propriu dar şi la figurat, cu ocazia vernisării unei noi ediţii a expoziţiei „Pictori la Balcic”, revista noastră a fost distinsă cu Diploma de excelenţă pentru promovarea evenimentelor culturale ale Muzeului Naţional Cotroceni, şi susţinerea parteneriatului cultural. Distincţia a fost înmânată Doinei Constantinescu, directorul general al companiei Convexus 2000, editorul publicaţiei „Traveller Magazin” de către Adina Renţea, directorul Muzeului.\r\n\r\n\r\nAceastă recunoaştere a susţinerii turismului cultural, se alătură celor peste 20 de premii, trofee şi diplome, primite de către grupul amintit în cei 15 ani de când dezvoltă piaţa presei româneşti de turism. O distincţie similară a revenit şi revistei „Vacanţe la Ţară”, condusă de Maria Stoian, preşedintele de onoare al ANTREC. Acestea sunt de altfel singurele publicaţii de turism care mai apar lunar în România.\r\n\r\n\r\nSEMNĂTURI PENTRU „STORY & GLORY”\r\nPeste o sută de ambasadori acreditaţi la Bucureşti, personalităţi şi reprezentanţi ai presei de turism – printre care şi noi -, şi-au pus semnătura pe cele 3 canotci lansate la Târgul Internaţional Dunărea & Delta de către Asociaţia “Ivan Patzaichin – Mila 23”. Momentul inedit s-a produs la Complexul Romexpo cu ocazia lansării proiectului “Danube Connection. Story & Glory” a cărui misiune principală este de a promova activităţile recreative, a turismului ecologic şi al multiculturalităţii oferite de ţări riverane Dunării. Cele 3 ambarcaţiuni (canotci) – poartă numele braţelor Dunării - Chilia, Sulina, Sf. Gheorghe. Ele au fost produse într-un un atelier finanţat de către multiplu campion mondial Ivan Patzaichin şi vor forma o caravană ce va trece, cu tot cu autografele inscripţionate, prin 4 ţări dunărene riverane. Patzaichin a declarat că „Infrastructura publică poate consolida dezvoltarea activităţilor de turism. Dunărea este un spaţiu natural care este locuit de oameni. Pentru ei trebuie găsit un echilibru între natură şi activităţile economice. În acest scop am creat un circuit cu 10 amenajări turistice prin care vor trece canotcile. Primul se va deschide la Crişan cu susţinere financiară americană. Ne-am dori o puternică implicare a administraţiei locale care are numai de câştigat”. Prin această manifestare s-a dorit crearea unui simbol al cooperării dunărene.\r\n\r\nPARCUL CIŞMIGIU ESTE ÎN TOP\r\n\r\nPortalul Infoniac a afişat recent un Top al celor mai apreciate parcuri din Europa. Parcul Cişmigiu din Bucureşti figurează pe poziţia 7 din 10. Inaugurat în 1854 el a fost realizat de către arhitectul pesiagist vienez Carl Friederich Wilhelm Meyer. Este apreciat a fi cea mai romantică şi veche grădină publică a Capitalei României. Împreună cu acesta figurează în clasament: Parcurile ori grădinile Sofiero - Helsingborg (Suedia), Keukenhof - Lisse (Olanda), renumit şi pentru cele 7 milioane de lalele care se culeg anual de aici, Luxemburg - Paris (Franţa), Villa Borghese - Roma (Italia), Hyde Park - Londra şi Parade Gardens - Bath (Marea Britanie), Berg Park - Kassel (Germania), Grădina de vară din Sankt Petersburg (Rusia) respectiv Varoshliget din Budapesta (Ungaria).\r\n\r\n20 DE ANI CU ŞTEFAN CEL MARE ŞI SFÂNT\r\n\r\nLa Restaurantul-Muzeu Vatra Neamului , amplasat în apropiere de Bucureşti, Uniunea Culturală a Românilor Basarabeni a marcat împlinirea a „20 de ani de la Canonizarea Domnitorului Ştefan cel Mare şi Sfânt”. Manifestarea, ce a avut ca tematică “Moştenirea lăsată de Ştefan cel Mare şi Sfânt - libertatea neamului românesc şi credinţa ortodoxă”, a adus în prim plan mai multe momente artistice memorabile susţinute de Corul Preoţilor Protopopiatului Ilfov Nord “Macarie Protopsaltul”, dirijor Dumitrescu Constantin, de tenorul Mihai Muntean artist laureat al premiului de stat din Republica Moldova, ansamblul Lăutarii, naista Cornelia Tihon, Maria Crăciun - Galaţi, Gheorghe Iovu – Timişoara şi de către alţi artişti de pe ambele maluri ale Prutului.\r\n\r\nPARTENERIAT ÎNTRE 2 ŢĂRI TURISTICE\r\nAsociaţia Naţională a Agenţiilor de Turism (ANAT) şi Organizaţia Elenă de Turism (EOT), prin biroul său de promovare turistică de la Bucureşti, au semnat un parteneriat care prevede susţinerea reciprocă pentru creşterea circulaţiei turistice în ambele sensuri. Conform declaraţiei Christinei Efthimiou, directorul biroului Greciei în ţara noastră “România are locuri frumoase ce merită vizitate. Bucureşti şi Constanţa pentru citybreak-uri, Sinaia şi Braşov pentru zona montană, alături de mănăstirile din Bucovina, Sibiu, Sighişoara, sunt locuri care îi vor atrage cu siguranţă pe turiştii greci”. În baza parteneriatului, conform declaraţiei Corinei Martin, preşedintele ANAT, atracţiile Greciei vor fi la rândul lor mai bine susţinute în rândul consumatorilor români de vacanţe.\r\n\r\nATLASUL DIGITAL – ROAD 2012\r\nSpecialiştii companiilor Sheba Distribution şi România Digitală au creat cea mai complexă hartă GPS pentru România - Atlasul Digital al României, ROAD 2012. Conceperea Atlasului a însumat o muncă de 3 ani. Marea noutate este că, pe baza unor studii fundamentate istoric şi arheologic, au fost reconstituite în format 3D mai multe monumente ce fac parte din patrimoniul UNESCO, precum cetăţile dacice din Munţii Orăştiei, clădirile Palatului Augustaliilor şi Amfiteatrul Roman de la Sarmizegetusa, castrele de la Drobeta, Buciumi şi Bologa, cetăţi medievale etc. ROAD 2012 acoperă peste 250.000 kilometri de căi de comunicaţii, drumuri secundare, intrări în centre comerciale etc.\r\n\r\nAVEM ŞI UN SECRETAR DE STAT PENTRU TURISM\r\nEl este un profesionist care vine din lumea travelului. Cristian Gheorghe Bărhălescu, a activat la Constanţa unde este proprietarul agenţiei de turism Icar Tours. El ocupă de asemenea şi funcţia reprezentativă de preşedinte al ANAT pentru regiunea Sud-Est. Deşi acest post nu exista el a fost înfiinţat prin Hotărâre de guvern la solicitarea mediului de afaceri din industria turistică.\r\n\r\nIRANUL ŞI-A PREZENTAT TRADIŢIILE\r\nTimp de şapte zile la Muzeul Ţăranului Român din Capitală s-a desfăşurat „Săptămâna culturii iraniene”. Pe parcursul acestor zile au fost prezentate expoziţii de meşteşuguri tradiţionale, de la covoare până la bijuterii, spectacole artistice şi folclorice ce i-au avut ca invitaţi pe Asgar Saed, reprezentant al muzicii vechi azere, ansamblul iranian The Soor condus de către Majid Molania şi Jamshid Safarzadeh etc. Am remarcat de asemenea expoziţia care a vorbit prin fotografii, despre atracţii turistice şi preocupări ale oamenilor din această ţară încărcată de istorie.\r\n\r\nPLATFORMĂ PENTRU ÎNVĂŢĂMÂNT LA DISTANŢĂ\r\nCompania de Investiţii pentru Turism şi THR GROUP au lansat o Platformă de teleprezenţă prin care vine în întâmpinarea dezvoltării învăţământului de specialitate la distanţă. Sistemul inovator de training raspunde astfel nevoilor stringente ale industriei.

În funcţie de buget, de preferinţe, de timp…\r\nMETEORA - între lumesc şi divin\r\n\r\nDupă Sfântul Munte Athos, Meteora este cel de al doilea centru monastic ortodox al Greciei, ca mărime şi importanţă şi atrage ca un magnet turiştii, cu relieful şi cu spiritualitatea sa extraordinară. Stâncile cu pereţi abrupţi şi înălţimi ameţitoare, care se înalţă în nord-vestul Tessaliei, între crestele Koziakas şi Antichassia, constituie unul din cele mai impresionante minuni ale planetei. Pe vârfurile cele mai greu accesibile, fără vegetaţie, s-a înfiripat viaţa monahală încă din secolul al IX-lea. Piscurile aflate deasupra oraşului Kalambaka şi satului Kastraki, au fost numite “Meteora”, în secolul al XIV-lea, de către cuviosul Atanasie ctitorul Mânăstirii Marele Meteor. De atunci, au luat fiinţă: 24 de mânăstiri, alături de altele preexistente, numeroase mânăstiri mici, locuri ascetice, chilii, sălaşuri de rugăciune, locuri de sihăstrie, peşteri, locuri de claustrare, stâlpnicii, împrăştiate pe toate stâncile meteorice. Pentru valoarea sa creştină, istorică, arhitectonică, artistică şi geografică, Meteora este recunoscută şi ocrotită de UNESCO şi de alte organizaţii internaţionale. Teritoriul Sfintei Meteora a fost proclamat, din octombrie 1995, “loc sfânt, imuabil şi inviolabil”, ceea ce-i asigură protecţia şi-i garantează autenticitatea.\r\n\r\nBORA BORA - Relaxare în Perla Pacificului\r\n\r\nNu ai căutat până acum ofertele agenţiilor de turism pentru Bora Bora? Destinaţia e denumită, pe bună dreptate, insula visurilor. Peisajele psihedelice, apele limpezi care udă poalele insulei din arhipelagul Polineziei Franceze şi varietatea impresionantă de activităţi satisfac cei mai pretenţioşi vizitatori. Supranumită şi Perla Pacificului, Bora Bora te cucereşte cu un amalgam de nuanţe de bleu, cu lagune de culoarea turcoazului şi vegetaţia abundentă din jurul vulcanului Otemanu.\r\nVrei să pleci în Luna de miere sau în vacanţă cu familia? Ai ales locul potrivit! Privită de sus Bora Bora a fost comparată cu „un mic smarald într-o mare de turcoaz, înconjurat de un şirag de perle sclipitoare”. Vederea insulei de pe aeroport, aflat la 20 de minute cu barca de satul principal, Vaitape, îţi va tăia răsuflarea. În sud-estul insulei poţi vizita, Grădina de Corali, un parc subacvatic natural, în largul Pont Matira îţi vei putea bucura privirea cu graţioasele pisici şi vulpi de mare, pe care, cu puţin curaj, le poţi mângâia în timp ce sunt hrănite. La intrarea în strâmtoare vei putea admira şi spectacolul inedit oferit de rechini cenuşii şi baracude.\r\nDar poate vrei adrenalină şi distracţie. În Bora Bora, nu ai cum să ratezi măcar o şedinţă de snorkeling. Sunt recomandate excursiile cu jet ski-ul sau şedinţele de scuba diving care se încheie cu obţinerea unui brevet de scufundător. Vrei mai multă aventură? Ia-ţi inima în dinţi şi mergi să hrăneşti rechinii din Pacific, bifând o activitate foarte căutată de turiştii care ajung în Bora Bora, Shark Feeding. Poţi înota printre rechinii flămânzi, sau te poţi distra în timpul unui Aqua Safari, unde ai ocazia să te plimbi pe lângă peretele de coral, la sub 35 de metri, cu o cască de scafandru. Ai posibilitatea să vezi Bora Bora de la înălţime, într-un tur cu elicopterul sau practicând parasailingul. Alege să descoperi mai multe din interiorul absolut fascinant, vulcanic al insulei, într-o excursie cu o maşină 4X4. Nu e de ratat nici vizita la ferma de perle, situată pe insula principală, pentru a admira simbolul Polineziei Franceze.

BUNĂ ZIUA TUNISIA !\r\n\r\n\r\n“Ne bucurăm că sunteţi la noi acasă. Sper că v-aţi convins că suntem o ţară foarte frumoasă. Tunisia nu este o ţară mare, dar este foarte variată. Iar românii formează, pentru noi, o clientelă căreia dorim să-i stârnim interesul, pentru că românii ştiu să cheltuie. În 2009, Tunisia a fost vizitată de 35.000 de români. Însă anul trecut, abia dacă au fost 6.000 de români. Obiectivul nostru, pentru următorii 3 ani, este să aducem 100.000 de români ».\r\n
Cum se va ajunge la acest obiectiv? Este o întrebare la care răspunde domnul Farid Fetui, director de promovare în cadrul Oficiului National de Turism din Tunisia. Una dintre amabilele gazde cu care ne-am întâlnit în Infotripul tematic la care am dat curs. Farid ne spune într-o convorbire relaxată că “Vom pune la punct o strategie de comunicare, o strategie comercială, vom invita în Tunisia mai mulţi agenţi de turism, care se vor convinge ei înşişi de frumuseţea ţării noastre. Turismul reprezintă 8% din produsul intern brut al Tunisiei. Se înţelege că pentru economia ţării noastre, sectorul turistic este vital, aş putea spune. În turism lucrează, fie direct, fie indirect, mai bine de un milion de oameni, în condiţiile în care întreaga populaţie a ţării noastre este de 10 milioane. Turismul este, de fapt, coloana vertebrală a economiei tunisiene. De la nord la sud, avem mai bine de 8 regiuni turistice ».\r\n\r\n\r\nCare este cântecul sirenei ?\r\nPentru ce v-aţi îndrepta spre Tunisia ? Poate pentru superbul deşert din sud. În sud-est se află celebra insulă Djerba. Nu uitaţi de Hammamet, Sousse, Tunis, Monastir, Mahdia sau Tabarka, în nord, un oraş foarte frumos. Iar Kairouan este al patrulea oraş sfânt al islamului, un oraş cu o impresionantă dimensiune culturală. Anual, Tunisia este vizitată de 7 milioane de turişti. Dintre aceştia, 70% sunt europeni, iar cei mai mulţi sunt francezi. 1.400.000 de francezi vizitează Tunisia, în fiecare an. Urmează cei germani, englezi, italieni, ruşi. Gazda noastră speră că, în curând, şi românii vor urca în acest top. “Lumea ne caută, în special, pentru marea foarte frumoasă. Soarele străluceşte pe litoral 6 luni pe an. Ne caută, însă, şi pentru… talasoterapie. Suntem din ce în ce mai căutaţi de către organizatorii de conferinţe, seminarii, evenimente, congrese. Este o piaţă în plină dezvoltare ».\r\n\r\nAceastă piaţă este susţinută de o infrastructură turistică bine… setată. Există multe hoteluri de 5 şi 4 stele... În total, 850 de hoteluri cu 250.000 de locuri care sunt puse în valoare de peste 500 de agenţii de turism. În Tunisia există 8 aeroporturi, câte unul în fiecare dintre cele 8 regiuni turisice, şi mai multe companii aeriene. Pe lângă cea naţională, TunisAir, există şi transporatori privaţi (Syphax, Nouvelair, TunisAir Express) care efectuează, în special, zboruri charter.\r\n
Şi acum la drum !\r\nDacă eşti la prima călătorie în Tunsia, vei rămane cu siguranţă fascinat. Încă înainte de a pune piciorul pe pământ tunisian, eşti impresionat de albastrul aprins al Mediteranei, al uşilor şi ferestrelor caselor. Această ţară a culorilor şi contrastelor, a parfumurilor şi aromelor, te invită să te bucuri de o frumuseţe naturală. Pentru un turist sofisticat, Tunisia oferă o veritabilă colecţie de situri antice impresionante. Romanii au întemeiat mai mult de 200 de oraşe în Tunisia, fiind prima colonie la sud de Mediterana. Moştenirea acestei civilizaţii numără în prezent peste 26.000 de situri arheologice, multe încă aşteptând să fie excavate şi amenajate.\r\n
De la Ksar Ezzit la El Jem\r\nDacă vrei să scapi de tumultul mării şi de forfota oraşelor, poţi merge până la Ksar Ezzit, un domeniu 100% ecologic, un paradis natural cu privelişti extraordinare. Ksar Ezzit este la 60 de km de Tunis, în inima ţării, în parcul Zagouan. Aici găsiţi una dintre cele mai mari ferme de ulei organic de măsline. Şapte vile de lux de diferite mărimi sunt împrăşitate de-a lungul domeniului. Fiecare are o arhitectură aparte reprezentând câte o zonă a Tunisiei. Plimbările, înotul sau călăritul pot completa câteva zile în natură pe care le puteţi petrece mai ales toamna când se prelucrează măslinele.\r\nDacă veţi ajunge la El Jem veţi constata că Colosseumul din Roma nu este unic. Aici există un amfiteatru mult mai complet. Şi mai bine păstrat. Cândva sângeros astăzi este locul de desfăsurare al unuia dintre cele mai renumite festivaluri internaţionale de muzică clasică. Amfiteatrul El Jem e al doilea amfiteatru ca mărime din lume din perioada romană ce s-a păstrat până în zilele noastre. Vestitul Colosseum a fost construit în 230 d. Ch. ca să rivalizeze cu cel de la Roma. Lungimea totală a elipsei amfiteatrului este de 149 de metri. Edificiul face parte din Patrimoniul Mondial UNESCO.
\r\nDe la Djerba în căutarea lui Ulise\r\nExotică, pentru că e africană, mai puţin cunoscută, paradis al celor care se topesc după plaje întinse şi cu nisipuri fine, insulă a păsărilor flamingo şi oazelor cu mii de palmieri. Se spune chiar că ar fi tărâmul consumatorilor de lotus, descris de Homer în “Odiseea” lui Ulise. Oriunde te uiţi dai peste fericiţi veniţi să stea la soare, să se relaxeze şi să mănânce fructe de mare sau să colinde oazele. Djerba fascinează prin arhitectura caselor albe şi pătrăţoase, pentru aspectul enigmatic, dar şi pentru castelul piraţilor sau grădinile umbroase. Muzica tamburinelor te învăluie, dansatorii Gougou de la Midoun te vrăjesc.\r\nDacă n-aţi fost trebuie să ajungeţi şi pe Planeta Tatooine. E un loc fictiv, care există doar în imaginaţia lui George Lucas, regizorul “Războiului stelelor”. Totuşi, cei care doresc să trăiască experienţa unei călătorii interstelare până pe planeta lui Luke Skywalker pot opta pentru un drum ceva mai scurt: o excursie în Tataoine, unde decorurile filmelor au rămas intacte. Numele planetei Tatooine provine de fapt de la o regiune cât se poate de reală, situată în sudul Tunisiei şi numită Tataoine. În limba berberă, numele provinciei înseamnă izvor.
\r\nNu uitaţi nici de Cartagina
\r\nNe oprim pentru o vreme şi la lacul sărat Chott el Djérid, una dintre principalele atracţii pe drumul Douz -Tozeur. A apărut în urma mişcărilor tectonice ale pământului acum 1,5 milioane de ani şi este cel mai mare lac sărat nord-african şi se situează între Golful Gabes şi frontiera algeriană. Oprirea oferă turiştilor posibilitatea de a cumpără trandafiri de deşert, cel mai ieftin suvenir din sudul Tunisiei. De aici vă puteţi îndrepta spre Cartagina, un alt loc loc care trebuie neapărat explorat pentru Ruinele sale, cu o puternică încărcătură istorică. Niciunul din Tunisia nu are o rezonanţă mai mare decât Cartagina, unde multe vestigii au fost scoase la iveală de UNESCO. În fine nu trebuie să rataţi Sidi Bou Said, o aşezare plasată în vârful stâncilor, ce oferă o privelişte spectaculoasă asupra Golfului Tunis. Oraşul a fost numit după Sidi Bou Said, un sfânt sufist, care s-a asezat aici la întoarcerea din pelerinajul său la Mecca. La începutul secolului al XVIII-lea, Hassan ibn Ali Bey a ordonat construirea unei moschei. Astăzi scările şi intrarea la Cafe des Nattes stau pe exact acelaşi loc. Café des Nattes este locul fierbinte al oraşului şi era punctul favorit de întâlnire al artiştilor avangardişti care veneau aici. A rămas la fel de popular şi azi ca pe vremurile când Simone de Beauvoir, Andre Gide, Jean-Paul Sartre, Guy de Maupassant sau Gustave Flaubert frecventau localul. Şi câte lucruri fascinante veţi mai putea afla ! Inclusiv despre moştenirea lăsată aici de George Sebastian, un român considerat drept un iniţiator al turismului tunisian. Asta o să aflaţi de la Fued Frini, probabil cel mai bun ghid de limbă română din Tunisia. Merită să-l cunoaşteţi.

NU, LITORALUL ROMÂNESC ! (2)\r\nFără îndoială bătaia peştelui a fost şi a rămas pe litoralul autohton turismul de familie. Când ai unu sau doi copii, ţi-e mai confortabil să pleci pe lângă casă şi cu atât mai mult eşti motivat să o faci dacă există diverse gratuităţi pentru prichindei.\r\n
Ciprian Constantinescu este cel mai vizibil investitor pe acest segment în zona Cap Aurora şi Jupiter. Dacă în urmă cu vreo opt ani se tot freca de iluzia turismului de conferinţe, care iluzie a rămas, acum el joacă în liga mare a turismului de familie. Reunite sub acelaşi brand COHotels, complexele California şi Delta au tot tacâmul pus pe masa distracţiilor asigurate pentru copii şi părinţi. Pe partea de loisir vă veţi întâlni cu Kidsclub-ul, promovat ca singurul club pentru copii de pe Litoral. Dacă mai adăugăm că până la 12 ani se beneficiază de cazare şi masă gratuite, atunci veţi înţelege de ce Plaja copiilor, Casa cu poveşti, Centru de balet şi de dans ori Şcoala de Teatru, sunt în fiecare zi arhipline. Şi California şi Delta merg pe 3 stele dar ofertele de servicii sunt superioare - ne-au asigurat directorii complexelor. Dacă Delta oferă peste 300 de camere dar şi 5 apartamente, 400 de locuri în restaurantul de bază şi patru săli de conferinţe, California îşi păstrează în acest sezon oferta de 110 camere. Punctele forte rămân zonele de agrement şi serviciile gratuite ori cu plată.
\r\nJUPITER – în căutarea a 3 flori\r\n\r\n
Bine arată în vecinătatea acestuia şi hotelul Opal, renovat la nivel de 3 stele. El pune la dispoziţie 239 de camere duble dintre care 150 cu vedere la mare. Un alt atuu – deţine şi 9 apartamente, cu aceeaşi poziţionare, ideale pentru familiile cu mai mulţi copii. Jegărite, abandonate şi deplorabile arată hotelurile din apropiere, care sunt proprietate ale armatei. Măcar o bidinea tot ar fi meritat să primească în ultimii ani. Dar nu ne-am mâhnit, pentru că documentarea noastră a ajuns în Jupiter la Complexul hotelier Iris, Nalba şi Mimoza.\r\n
EFORIE NORD – Revoluţia a început\r\n\r\n
După mai mulţi ani în care fostul complex „Steaua de Mare”, a fost destructurat fără pricepere, i s-a schimbat numele în „Britannia”- ce are aia cu prefectura nu a aflat nimeni -, după care a intrat în insolvenţă, în conservare şi autodistrugere, iată că a apărut o tranzacţie salvatoare. „Revoluţionarul” pare să fie omul de afaceri Nicolae Bucovală, care a achiziţionat complexul, cândva fanion din Eforie Nord, contra sumei de 4 milioane de euro. Cum turismul este plin de bârfe, noi am prefera să fie la fel de populat şi de turişti, se vehiculează că Bucovală este doar umbrela în spatele căruia sunt grupaţi mai mulţi investitori potenţi care nu sunt interesaţi de publicitate mondenă şi facilă. Sincer vorbind după atâta distrugere în masă, la foc automat, a complexelor de pe litoralul românesc, nici nu contează numele lor. Ci ce vor reuşi să facă aceştia, după epoca familiei Triţă Făniţă, Dumnezeu să-l odihnească. La ora când am inspectat complexul Nicolae Bucovală ne-a arătat finisajele primului hotel şi a restaurantului aferent. El spunea că investiţia se va ridica la circa 8 milioane de euro. Complexul Steaua de Mare cuprinde trei hoteluri, care cumulează 700 de camere, trei restaurante, o sală de conferinţe, braserie, cofetărie şi piscină, având o suprafaţă totală construită de aproape 30.000 de metri pătraţi. Delfinul şi Meduza din cadrul complexului vor activa la 4 stele şi, respectiv, 3 stele. Cea de-a treia unitate, Steaua de Mare, va fi clasificată la 2 stele. Se va merge pe un concept all-inclusive dar şi pe demipensiune, în funcţie de cerere. Marea problemă rămâne însă baza de tratament legată ombilical de hotel şi care aparţine Ministerului Sănătăţii. Aici este mărul otrăvit. Omul de afaceri a investit în modernizarea acesteia cu speranţa că şi-o va putea adjudeca. Pentru că tratamentul rămâne elementul vital ce va permite hotelurilor să funcţioneze poate tot timpul anului. Lupta durează de vreo două decenii, iar turismul nu câştigat până acum nicio repriză.\r\n\r\nÎn rest, la Eforie Nord, puteţi merge la Hotelul Europa, unde George Copos, este pe bună dreptate nemulţumit că investiţia sa este încercuită şi în acest sezon, de bazaruri, ţigănie, chinezărie şi manele. “Europa” rămâne în aceeaşi poziţie fanion de complex Spa de foarte bună calitate. Ce am mai descoperit pentru dumneavoastră? Un hotel Miraj, altul Sirius, Vera, cu o modernizare potrivită, un hoteluţ cu 30 de camere - Dynes -, mai pentru petreceri şi festivaluri şi, cum era să uităm să vă invităm, “Nunta Zamfirei”, restaurantul cu programul folcloric cu specifici de nuntă. E unul dintre ultimii supravieţuitori ai divertismentului folcloric. Secretul? Sutele de mii de turişti străini care n-au obosit să treacă pe aici. Tradiţia nu are vârstă.

INTRARE ÎN PIAŢĂ MELODIA – o atracţie de vacanţă\r\nCel mai elegant hotel design intrat în circuitul turistic pe litoralul românesc al Mării Negre este Melodia. Amplasat în staţiunea Venus el propune consumatorilor de vacanţă o altă perspectivă de a-şi petrece timpul liber. Amplasat pe un domeniu de circa 10.000 de metri pătraţi el dispune de 8 apartamente, 30 de camere matrimoniale şi 73 de camere duble. Toate beneficiază de balcoane protejate de sisteme parasolare, sunt modelate pe baza unor concepte de design confortabil, de finisaje şi accesorii de calitate superioară, toate contribuind la crearea unei atmosfere plăcute şi relaxante.\r\n\r\nÎncă din zona de primire şi recepţie veţi fi suprinşi de atmosfera creată prin mobilierul şi articolele decorative futuriste. Deşi este vândut pe piaţă ca un complex de 3 stele Hotelul Melodia oferă facilităţi de 4 şi 5 stele printre care se numără sistemele de climatizare independente, televiziune, internet wireless, minibar, seif iar pentru turiştii preocupaţi de întreţinerea fizică un complex de fitness echipat cu aparatură profesională, aer climatizat şi purificat automat, saună, spaţii pentru relaxare şi şedinţe de masaj. Cele două piscine descoperite – pentru adulţi şi copii – sunt cu apă încălzită, iar barul, terasa şi cafeneaua sunt „decorate” pe perioada nopţii de o fântână arteziană cu orgă de lumini al cărui spectacol va contribui la o petrecerea unei vacanţe de neuitat. Reţineţi acest hotel. E mai mult decât atât.\r\n
DISTINCŢII Grand Continental premiat de TripAdvisor\r\nCunoscutul site de turism Trip Adviser a acordat Premiul de Excelenţă pentru anul 2012, Grand Hotel Continental din Bucureşti, care a reintrat în circuit complet refăcut în urmă cu doi ani. “Acesta este un superb hotel de tip boutique care încearcă să restabilească fosta glorie”, „Mobilierul şi accesoriile sunt elegante şi confortabile”, „Personalul este prietenos şi extrem de amabil”, „Am trăit un sentiment de a fi foarte binevenit şi foarte bine îngrijit şi aştept cu nerăbdare să mă întorc şi anul viitor”....Sunt numai câteva din comentariile oaspeţilor care au trecut pragul complexului hotelier românesc.\r\nVizitatorii paginii TripAdvisor for Business au cotat Grand Hotel Continental la cele mai bune rating-uri, astfel încât media pe 2012 de 4.5 puncte aduce hotelului recunoaşterea de către TripAdvisor a unei realizări excepţionale. TripAdvisor a acordat hotelui Grand Hotel Continental premiul de excelenţă pentru anul 2012, cu următorul mesaj: „numai cei mai buni în domeniu sunt răsplătiţi cu acest premiu”. TripAdvisor.com este un site de turism care asistă clienţii în selectarea de informaţii de călătorie, comentarii şi opinii legate de călătorie.\r\n
INVESTIŢII\r\nUn nou hotel în Centrul Istoric\r\nDupă un îndelungat proces de renovare a unei vechi clădiri din Centrul istoric al Capitalei, amplasată în vecinătatea Hanului lui Manuc, a intrat în circuitul turistic hotelul Europa Royale. El aduce pe piaţă 92 de camere, 2 săli de conferinţă un lounge bar şi un restaurant cu o capacitate de 85 de persoane. Complexul face parte din lanţul Europa Group Hotels, care deţine în portofoliu 622 de camere operate în 6 oraşe din Europa. Conceptul global promovat de către investitori este dezvoltat şi la Bucureşti în sensul că toate hotelurile din grup au fost deschise în clădiri localizate în centrele vechi ale oraşelor, în clădiri istorice restaurate şi recondiţionate. Noul hotel care activează la un standard de 4 stele este condus de o echipă tânără cu o experienţă bogată, acumulată în hoteluri similare din Lituania şi Letonia.
\r\nBuzău – Gata încă un proiect\r\nComplexul hotelier Pietroasa din Buzău a cunoscut o nouă extindere. Proiectul ce a stat la baza acesteia a fost finanţat din fonduri europene nerambursabile în cadrul POR - Regio, având o valoare totală de 13.154.779 de lei. În cadrul acestuia au fost prevăzută dezvoltarea unei noi structuri de cazare cu 30 de camere şi 60 de locuri. Dintre acestea 24 sunt duble şi 6 apartamente, toate fiind dotate la un standard de 4 stele. Investiţiile s-au derulat pe parcursul a doi ani.
\r\nREPOZIŢIONARE\r\nDe la 5 la 4 stele\r\nCrowne Plaza din Bucureşti, hotel deţinut de George Copos, a anunţat că doreşte o declasificare de la 5 stele la 4 stele pentru o mai bună repoziţionare pe piaţa turistică. În acest sens managementul a solicitat Ministerului Turismului acordarea unui certificat de clasificare de 4 stele ca nivel de confort pentru toate camerele tip standard. Crowne Plaza operează 164 de camere. Directorul general al complexului Franz Rattenstetter, a declarat că repoziţionarea este marcată nu numai de o mai bună vizibilitate pe piaţa românească ci şi din dorinţa de a se alinia la standardul InterContinental Hotels Group, care plaseaza brandul Crowne Plaza la nivel upscale, el activând în alte ţări la nivel de 4 stele.

Cărţile ei au fost traduse în 38 de limbi. A studiat dramaturgia la Academia de Teatru din Helsinki şi literatura la universitatea din oraşul natal, Jyväskylä. Prima ei carte, „Vacile lui Stalin” a scris-o în 2003, nuvelă care a propulsat-o pe scena literară naţională. De asemenea este autoarea romanului „Purificare”, ce va fi transpus pe scenă de către Teatrul Naţional Finlandez. Volumul, care rememorează timpuri dramatice, a apărut în circa 40 de ţări. Fiind jumătate finlandeză şi jumătate estonă, ea s-a poziţionat la graniţa culoturală dintre Vest şi Est. În anul 2009 a fost declarată „Personalitatea anului” în Estonia. Sofi Oksanen este, probabil, singura scriitoare din vestică care subliniază faptul că Europa de Vest nu înţelege istoria Europei de Est pentru că nu a experimentat anii de guvernare totalitară. Sofi a avut amabilitatea să răspundă, la câteva întrebări puse de colaboratorul nostru din Phoenix (Arizona).\r\n\r\n- În momentul de faţă te afli în mai multe topuri cu romane bestseller întocmite din ţările nordice ale Europei, dar cărţile au fost remarcate de mass-media internaţională. Ai dobândit mai multe premii de anvergură, cum ar fi „The Finlandia Award” şi „Premiul Comitetului de Literatură” din ţările nordice, în 2012. Eşti cel mai tânăr autor care obţine aceste distincţii. Ce presupune să devii un scriitor de succes?\r\n\r\n- Să scrie. Nu există nicio reţetă pentru succes. Toţi autorii sunt diferiţi.\r\n\r\n- Ce limbă se vorbea în familia ta, tatăl tău fiind finlandez, iar mama estonă? Apropo, câte limbi cunoşti?\r\n\r\n- Finlandeza şi estona. Vorbesc engleză, de asemenea, puţină franceză şi suedeză şi pot să citesc ziarul în limba germană. Engleza, franceza şi germana le-am învăţat la şcoală.\r\n\r\n- Care este atitudinea finlandezilor faţă de educaţie? Prin ce se diferenţiază ţările scandinave de celelalte ţări din Europa? Ce similarităţi şi diferenţe există între acestea?\r\n\r\n- Să o luăm pe rând. Dacă nu provine de la şcolile finlandeze, educaţia nu este apreciată, în general. Prin urmare, pentru un emigrant este destul de dificil să obţină un job mai bun, chiar dacă vine din Statele Unite, Anglia sau alte ţări vest-europene. În Scandinavia avem mare libertate de exprimare, conştientizare a nevoii de protecţie a mediului înconjurător, iar nivelul de „egalitate” este mai mare decât în multe alte ţări. Suedia, Norvegia şi Danemarca aparţin aceluiaşi grup lingvistic. Finlanda este ca o fiică vitregă a ţărilor nordice. Finlandeza este o limbă foarte diferită faţă de suedeză, norvegiană şi daneză. Cu toate acestea, împărtăşim aceleaşi valori: nivel înalt de libertate de exprimare, egalitate etc.\r\n\r\n- Ce are unic în Finlanda? Ce locuri merită vizitate în ţara ta? Ce cărţi citesc de obicei conaţionalii tăi?\r\n\r\n- Îmi place Helsinki, capitala ţării. Turiştii, de obicei aleg Lapland. De asemenea, unii vizitatori se bucură de faptul că avem patru anotimpuri. Cel mai mult sunt căutate romanele istorice, mai mult de ficţiune decât non-fiction, şi mai mult scrise de autori indigeni decât de autori traduşi. Finlandezii citesc. Finlandezii vizitează bibliotecile, cred, mai mult decât orice altă naţionalitate din lume.\r\n\r\n- Ce locuri ai vizitat în Statele Unite?\r\n\r\n- Arizona este un loc pe tabla de joc a copiilor. Este foarte popular în Finlanda sau cel puţin a fost, când eram copil. Am vizitat New York City, Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Washington D. C. şi alte câteva oraşe.\r\n\r\n- Recent, ai călătorit în România. Ce te-a impresionat ?\r\n\r\n- Românii sunt oameni ca toţi oamenii din lume. Mi-a dat de gândit situaţia politică din România, o ţară cu tradiţie în corupţie. Lumea politică este coruptă „la greu”. Oamenii nu votează într-un procent însemnat, pentru că găsesc inutil să voteze. Votul pare că nu are nicio însemnătate. Există locuri interesante de vizitat. Probabil o să mă întorc cu primul prilej ce mi se va oferi pentru a vedea o parte din ele.\r\n\r\nOCTAVIAN D.

Atunci aflaţi că puteţi petrece un weekend absolut domnesc pe malul Dunării, la Eşelniţa. Adică în inima Clisurii Dunării. Ce să căutaţi acolo? Să vedem!\r\n\r\n\r\nLa un sfârşit de săptămână torid ne-am întâlnit cu Ioan Ciuru, care a ajuns la al patrulea mandat de când conduce comuna Eşelniţa. La Centrul Internaţional România-Serbia, unde se află şi Centrul de Perfecţionare Eşelniţa, primarul şi-a exprimat convingerea că urbea pe care o conduce va avea un cuvânt de spus pe piaţa turistică naţională. În faţa operatorilor şi ai presei de turism el a prezentat esenţa unui program „Weekend la Eşelniţa”, ce beneficiază de finanţare europeană. Prin acesta se urmăreşte creşterea cu 25% a circulaţiei turistice în zonă. Desigur, este mare nevoie de promovarea obiectivelor turistice, majoritatea cu valoare de unicat prin metode de marketing specific. Sună frumos şi chiar periculos dacă ne gândim că o parte din programele turistice sunt tangente cu aventura ce se consumă uneori timp de o zi pe apele Dunării. Să vă fie clar – Dunărea la Cazane este o altă Dunăre, iar atracţiile existente aici au majoritatea o strălucire unică. Primarul Ciuru priveşte cu optimism atingerea acestei ţinte, dar adevărul adevărat este că greul l-au dus şi continuă să-l ducă investitorii privaţi din zonă. Mulţi dintre ei lucreză bine cu instituţiile locale pentru că, oricum am lua-o, scopul este comun şi toată lumea vrea să câştige din turism. Ioan Ciuru zice că „viitorul va fi de partea noastră. Investitorii au construit aici iar noi derulăm fonduri europene în valoare de circa 14 milioane de euro”. Ar fi de dorit ca o sumă mai consistentă să fie alocată pentru publicitarea destinaţiei. Că numai cu o floare nu face primăvară în turism. Au simţit-o şi alţii pe pielea lor.\r\n
Doru Oniga – un om cu vână de pioner
\r\nEşelniţa se promovează pe piaţă cu 21 de pensiuni cu circa 300 de camere, majoritatea muc şi sfârc, dotate ca la carte, cu oferte gastronomice pe măsură dar şi cu programe opţionale bine închegate. Lesne de înţeles, ele au ca mijloc de transport ambarcaţiunile locale iar Dunărea albastră este vedeta incontestabilă şi fără vârstă. Ba chiar se pare că a întinerit. Cu ajutorul unor activităţi de PR, care au avut în centrul ei pe Zâna Dunării şi Piraţii din Clisură, cam tot atât de periculoşi ca aceia din Caraibe. Cu diferenţa că ei au jucat rolul de apărători ai Zânei în faţa eventualilor răufăcători. În total însă pe Clisura Dunării sunt circa 40 de pensiuni şi mici hoteluri. O parte fie sunt proprietăţi de familie, fie fac un fel de turism negro-spiritual. Majoritatea le îmbina cu succes pe amândouă. Cei care au avut vână pe pioneri ai locului au simţit că turismul va merge cândva. Aici poţi să te amăgeşti că e locul ideal pentru turismul individual, dar vei constata că reţeta cea mai profitabilă este asigurată de turismul de masă, de grup. Doru Oniga a venit în urmă cu mai bine de 15 ani să găsească aurul turistic la Eşelniţa. La început a dat numai de apă şi piatră. A costat mult prima construcţie care a fost o casă de vacanţă. Cu 11 ani în urmă şi-a deschis uşile pentru turişti. Văzând că apare cererea, a investit în mai multe etape, unele dintre ele fiind dublate şi de fonduri europene. „Până în 1989, în zona Clisurii nu se putea intra decât cu buletinul. Când am făcut prima investiţie, oamenii mă credeau nebun, probabil că şi arătam aşa pentru că toţi investitorii când încep să-şi pună banii şi pielea la saramură în turism, oricât s-ar zice, au o privire ciudată pentru că îşi dau seama că riscă enorm. Aici, eu dar şi soţia mea, am simţit-o din plin. Pentru că turismul este o fiinţă sensibilă”. Doru priveşte spre pensiunea „Steaua Dunării” care oferă azi 18 camere duble, 2 triple, 3 apartamente, sală de conferinţă cu 60 de locuri, un restaurant cu 90 de locuri, terasă acoperită cu 60 de locuri, un loc de plajă cu şezlonguri. Nu se va opri aici. A cumpărat un teren în imediata vecinătate unde va dezvolta un alt proiect. „Concurenţa nu te lasă să te culci pe o ureche. Am proiectat deja un mic Centru sportiv şi de întreţinere care va diversifica oferta noastră şi pentru perioada de primăvară-toamnă. Pot spune că în ultimii 2-3 ani lucrurile s-au aşezat bine. Lucrăm armonios cu operatori de turism interesaţi de programe interne. Avem contracte cu agenţii din Timişoara, Cluj şi din Ungaria. Avem turişti străini care vin în principal pe programe de seniori. Satisfacţia este că o parte revin cel puţin odată şi acest lucru spune ceva. Un alt segment interesant este cel care vine şi organizează conferinţe, simpozioane şi team-building-uri” – mai arată Oniga.\r\n
Un loc dăruit de Doina şi Teodor Grigore
\r\nDacă vă întrebaţi cu ce vă puteţi umple timpul într-un mod cât mai relaxant aici la Eşelniţa, aveţi destule opţiuni. Un loc dăruit pe pământ este Muzeul de etnografie, de fapt un muzeu privat, amenajat în casa în care locuiesc Doina şi Teodor Grigore, proprietarii lui. Teodor, un tip comunicativ ne spune că „totul a crescut aici natural, de la sine. De 4 decenii ne ocupăm de acest loc. Cele 4 nepoţele ale noastre au crescut într-o căsuţă de poveşti. Avem colecţii foarte diferite, de la obiecte utile la treburile casnice până la cele necesare la muncile câmpului. Obiectele pentru meşteşuguri, colecţii de chei ori de forme pentru prăjituri - bănăţencele fiind renumite pentru pasiunea de a face dulciuri în casă”. Fiecare obiect are povestea lui, dar cele mai multe sunt grupate în jurul costumelor populare şi a picturilor. Ele sunt zise şi rotunjite cu talent de către Doina, o femeie în care pasiunea pentru frumos n-are vârstă.
\r\nPriveşte-l pe Decebal în ochi\r\n\r\n
Dacă doriţi să puneţi cap la cap aventura şi cultura, cel mai potrivit program este cel de croazieră cu şalupa. Astfel veţi putea ajunge la impresionanta Statuie a lui Decebal, sculptată în stâncă de către o echipă de salvamontişti şi alpinişti, finanţată de regretatul Iosif Constantin Drăgan, apoi la Tabula Traiana, Mănăstirea Mraconia, Peşterile Ponicova şi Veteranii – da aţi citit bine. Să nu rataţi Mănăstirea Sf. Ana, loc unde se odihneşte celebrul ziarist Pamfil Şeicaru, care a şi finanţat construirea acestui loc de credinţă în amintirea soţiei sale. Poate nu v-am convins pe deplin cu cele relatate. Atunci merită să veniţi până aici, măcar pentru a înţelege cum au contribuit investitorii din turism de pe Clisura Dunării, la creşterea suprafeţei teritoriului României, cu câţiva zeci de kilometri pătraţi. Dar asta-i altă altă poveste.\r\n

\r\n\r\n\r\nProducătorul TV Petru Frăsilă a invitat staff-ul revistei noastre şi conducerea Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET România la emisiunea marcă a Prima TV Iaşi şi TLM. Îm prima parte a dezbaterii “La un ceai cu Petru Frăsilă” dialogul s-a concentrat pe promovarea turistică a României dar şi asupra condiţiei din ce în ce mai ingrate a jurnalistului de turism. Doina Constantinescu, directorul publicaţiei Traveller Magazin, a spus că “după 15 ani de presă de travel şi peste 360 de ediţii, avem un tablou al eşecurilor în promovarea turistică naţională. Una dintre explicaţii - promovarea şi publicitarea destinaţiei a fost făcută doar pe plan extern, neglijându-se consumatorul intern. La rândul său Marian Constantinescu, redactorul şef al revistei a arătat că deşi există fonduri europene consistente de promovare regională, programele instituţiilor care le-au accesat nu au fost promovate şi sub formă de print, lucru care a afectat publicaţiile de turism. Victor Rădulescu, preşedintele FIJET România, a sublinait că asociaţia pe care o conduce a derulat proiecte care au condus şi la acordarea, în urmă cu doi ani, a 3 Golden Apple, pentru destinaţii şi companii de top din România.\r\n\r\nION BADEA\r\n.....................................................................................\r\n\r\nO NOUĂ EDIŢIE A PAGITUR\r\n\r\nPagini Aurii a lansat la Mamaia, o nouă ediţie a ghidulului naţional de călătorii PagiTur. Editat în format atractiv, policromie, el sitetizează informaţii şi servicii turistice la nivel naţional despre: hoteluri, restaurante, pensiuni, închirieri auto, saloane de înfrumuseţare, saloane, policlinici, servicii de asistenţă sanitară etc. PagiTur ajută turiştii să se orienteze şi prin hărţiile detaliate ale judeţelor (însoţite de repere turistice); municipiilor şi ale zonelor turistice. Ghidul se distribuie gratuit.\r\n......................................................................................\r\n\r\n\r\nPELEŞUL DIN CE ÎN CE MAI CĂUTAT\r\n\r\nÎn primul semestru al acestui an Muzeul Naţional Peleş din Sinaia a fost vizitat de 107.283 de turişti. Cifra consemnează o creştere cu peste 24.300 comparativ cu aceeaşi perioadă a anului trecut. Castelul Peleş a primit 89.776 persoane, în timp ce frecventarea Castelului Pelişor a înregistrat o scădere uşoară a vizitatorilor, de la 17.570 la 17.507.\r\n.....................................................................................\r\n\r\nPENALITĂŢI, INFORMAŢII ŞI TELVERDE\r\n\r\nMinisterul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului (MDRT) a primit în acest an, numeroase reclamaţii privind servicii de transport sau cazare neonorate. Pentru soluţionarea sesizărilor inspectorii au verificat şi identificat 177 de agenţii de turism cu nereguli, care au fost sancţionate, după caz, cu suspendarea sau retragerea licenţei de funcţionare. Pentru siguranţa turiştilor şi informare publică MDRT actualizează permanent lista agenţiilor de turism licenţiate şi a agenţiilor cu licenţa retrasă de pe teritoriul României la adresa www.mdrt.ro/turism/unitati-clasificate. Din această listă reiese însă că într-o proporţie de peste 90%, licenţele au fost retrase ori suspendate cu ocazia desfiinţării ori schimbării unor puncte de lucru ale agenţiilor de turism. Şi nu datorită unor servicii proaste ori neprestate către consumatori. Tot pe site-ul MDRT pot fi consultate unităţile de cazare clasificate, centrele de informare turistică şi lista ghizilor care deţin atestat. Cea din urmă este din păcate incompletă – ne semnalează Asociaţia Naţională a Ghizilor de Turism din România (ANGR). MDRT recomandă în continuare turiştilor să apeleze, în cazul în care constată nereguli în privinţa serviciilor primite, linia telefonică gratuită TelVerde 0800.868.282 (http://mdrt.ro/telverde)\r\n......................................................................................\r\n\r\n\r\nFILM, ISTORIE ŞI AMINTIRI\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Fest-Risnov1.jpg\" "\\"Fest")

\r\nÎntre 15 şi 19 august la Natura Parc s-a desfăşurat prima ediţie a unui inedit festival: cel al racilor. Pe parcursul manifestării s-au întâmplat tot felul de... minuni care au făcut deliciul – şi la propriu şi la figurat -, curioşilor şi consumatorilor prezenţi. Fierţi, prăjiţi sau asezonaţi cu diferite sosuri şi condimente, racii au fost vedetele apetisante. La Natura Parc de la Chinchiş s-au întâmplat tot felul de concursuri, printre care cea mai mare captura a zilei dar şi cel mai gustos preparat. Foarte urmărit a fost “Raliul Racilor” asezonat cu muzică, pronosticuri, premii etc. În luna iulie două bălţi din arealul Natura Parc au fost populate cu raci. Astfel aici a apărut cea mai mare crescătorie de crustacee din România. Popularea s-a făcut cu specia Astacus Leptodactylus, cunoscută pentru gust, pentru combinaţia unică de proteine, Omega 3 şi amino-acizi. Pentru gurmanzii de pe întreg mapamondul organizatorii descriu un platou de raci pentru două persoane, de un kilogram. Racii sunt fierţi cu buchete mari de mărar proaspăt şi presărat cu sare.

Apoi de un “Muschiuleţ de viţel de lapte cu ierburi aromate, în crustă de nuci, terină de momiţe cu spată de viţel marmorată, în crustă de ardei kapia şi jeleu fierbinte de păstârnac, servite cu muffins din cartofi cu trufe, verdeţuri şi gălbiori, servit cu sos brun şi sos de gălbiori”. Dar de un desert cu “Prăjitură cu mousse de gutuie şi ciocolată albă, pe blat de turtă dulce şi jeleu de iaurt, servită cu sorbet de gutuie pe crumble alături de o variaţie de texturi de ciocolată şi cremă Prosecco de Mango”.\n\nEi bine acestea sunt doar o parte din “probele” cu care Echipele de Bucătari ale României, se va confrunta la ce-a de-a XXIII-a Olimpiadă de Gastronomie –IKA 2012 ce se va desfăşura la Messe Erfurt, între 6 şi 9 octombrie 2012. Competiţia se organizează odată la patru ani în Germania. La IKA 2012 vor fi prezenţi peste 1.600 de profesionişti, bucătari şi cofetari, din peste 50 de ţări, peste 300 de participanţi individuali şi mai bine de 350 de reprezentanţi media de profil. Olimpiada de Gastronomie de la Erfurt se va derula într-un spaţiu expoziţional de peste 46.000 de metri pătraţi.\n\nPână atunci, după cum ne spune Gabriela Berechet, Preşedintele Federaţiei Bucătarilor din România (FBR), membrii echipei se antrenează pe plan local şi naţional. Startul s-a dat la Centrul AROMA, de lângă Bucureşti, patronat de către compania Bilancia. Următorul antrenament va fi la Constanţa, între 21 şi 23 septembrie, la Concursul internaţional pentru elevi ”Trofeul Balada Nej” – ”Bucătar European – Gust tradiţional”. Team-ul este alcătuit din profesionişti ce aparţin mai multor generaţii ceea ce-i conferă un nivel foarte ridicat de exprimare: Căpitan este Ioan Florescu ( Bucătar şef la Hotelul Belvedere din Braşov, multiplu campion naţional şi internaţional). El e secondat de Cornelia Ghişoi (Bucătar şef la complexul Aro Palace din acelaşi oraş, multiplă campioană naţională şi internaţională, singura femeie bucătar din România membru al juriului WACS – Categoria de jurizare B); Orlando Laurenţiu Zaharia (Bucătar şef, Câştigătorul ediţiei a II-a a Trofeului “Bucătarul de Aur al Bucureştiului”), Mihai Neacşu – (Bucătar şef la restaurantul David’s din Bacău), Samuel Rus – (Bucătar şef şi patron al restaurantului “To Chefs” din Oradea), Carmela Dragomir – (Cofetar, membră în lotul olimpic IKA 2008, multiplă medaliată cu aur, argint şi bronz la Campionatul mondial de la Luxemburg, la competiţii din Turcia, Cipru, Erfurt etc), respectiv subsemnata în calitate de preşedinte al FBR şi de manager al echipei”.\n\nGabriela Berechet a subliniat că la IKA 2012, vom fi prezenţi cu două echipe de bucătari, cea Naţională de juniori, ce-l va avea ca Teamchef pe Silviu Scornea, respectiv cea Regională Bucureşti - FBR, condusă de Henrik Sebok ( un profesionist de clasă internaţională, Executive Chef, la Restaurant Avalon de la Howard Johnson Grand Plaza Bucharest”.\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\n_______________________________________________________________\n\nCE ZICEŢI DE UN... FESTIVAL AL RACILOR? \n\nÎntre 15 şi 19 august la Natura Parc s-a desfăşurat prima ediţie a unui inedit festival: cel al racilor. Pe parcursul manifestării s-au întâmplat tot felul de... minuni care au făcut deliciul – şi la propriu şi la figurat -, curioşilor şi consumatorilor prezenţi. Fierţi, prăjiţi sau asezonaţi cu diferite sosuri şi condimente, racii au fost vedetele apetisante. La Natura Parc de la Chinchiş s-au întâmplat tot felul de concursuri, printre care cea mai mare captura a zilei dar şi cel mai gustos preparat. Foarte urmărit a fost “Raliul Racilor” asezonat cu muzică, pronosticuri, premii etc. În luna iulie două bălţi din arealul Natura Parc au fost populate cu raci. Astfel aici a apărut cea mai mare crescătorie de crustacee din România. Popularea s-a făcut cu specia Astacus Leptodactylus, cunoscută pentru gust, pentru combinaţia unică de proteine, Omega 3 şi amino-acizi. Pentru gurmanzii de pe întreg mapamondul organizatorii descriu un platou de raci pentru două persoane, de un kilogram. Racii sunt fierţi cu buchete mari de mărar proaspăt şi presărat cu sare. Reţeta merge perfect cu bere. Preţul este de 35 de lei. Alte amănunte despre acest loc ideal pentru divertisment şi vacanţe pe site-ul www.naturaparc.ro. Natura Parc s-a deschis în 2010. Cu o suprafaţă de peste 160 de hectare el este considerat cel mai mare parc de activităţi sportive şi recreative din sud-estul Europei.','CE ZICEŢI DE UN...

Delta Nature Resort din apropiere de Tulcea şi Complexul Cormoran de la Uzlina sunt două dintre recomandările pe care le-am făcut la timpul lor. De curând am descoperit o nouă oază de ospitalitate şi bun simţ, elemente esenţiale ale unui produs turistic reuşit. Hotelul Wels (în limba germană desemnează peştele somn) este amplasat la Băltenii de Sus, pe malul drept al braţului Sf. Gheorghe.

Proprietarii sunt un arădean, care a lucrat în Germania, Eliade Popescu şi soţia sa Brigitte, de origine din Vatra Dornei. Tiparul poveştii de succes pare simplu. Dar în realitate n-a fost aşa. S-au cunoscut în Germania. Au dorit să-şi construiască o casă de vacanţă. Apoi şi-au dat seama că ar putea face o afacere în turism. Au accesat fonduri PHARE, dar birocraţia şi condiţionările financiare i-au determinat să renunţe. La începutul anilor 2001 au demarat proiectul cu o investiţie pe cont propriu. În materie de construcţii aveau ceva experienţă. Nu şi în turism. Cu toate acestea în 2006 au reuşit să inaugureze hotelul. După aceea a început marketingul şi atragerea de clienţi. Azi hotelul Wels, clasificat la 4 stele, este căutat de numeroşi turişti. „Majoritatea sunt familii cu sau fără copii, dar vin şi individuali.

Manifestarea se organizează odată la… 10 ani iar prezenţa la el este şi o chestiune de promovare a fiecărui expozant.\r\nAici, într-un mare parc, multe ţări şi-au adus la standuri fructele, esenţele parfumate, vinurile, sau orice alte exponate de arătat unui public iubitor de natură, plante şi noile tehnologii de îmbunătăţire a calităţii vieţii. Floriade 2012 s-a deschis la începutul lunii aprilie în Olanda, regiunea Venlo, în apropierea graniţei cu Germania. Încă de la începutul vizitei îţi dai seama de efortul făcut dar şi de management: o parcare pentru 200 de autocare, covoare de lalele şi plante ornamentale care înfrumuseţează zona caselor de bilete. Tot de aici se pot închiria motorete cu scaune confortabile pentru cei care nu cred că se pot plimba pe jos prin toată expoziţia. Urmează un pod de sticlă peste autostradă, o alee cu statui şi muzică, o clădire-turn pentru vedere panoramică şi intrarea.
Cine dă lecţii de promovare?\r\nParcul are 66 de hectare care cuprind lacuri şi zone de pădure, din mărimea totală peste 40 de hectare fiind amenajate. Întrucât sloganul expoziţiei este “ia parte la piesa de teatru a naturii, apropie-te de o viaţă de calitate!” cele cinci secţiuni ale parcului sunt: Relaxare şi sănătate, Motorul verde, Educaţie şi inovaţie, Mediu, Scena lumii. Aici îşi expun produsele reprezentative circa 100 de companii şi ţări. Spania, cu o clădire din lemn, vorbeşte despre calităţile nutritive ale uleiului de măsline dar şi ale vinului roşu. Bulgaria, cu o căsuţă modestă înconjurată de flori prezintă produse cosmetice pe bază de ulei de trandafiri. În aceeaşi zonă, ţări precum Peru ori Kenya, amintesc de industria materialelor naturale: lâna de alpaca, pielea, etc. Turcia cheamă la un ceai în curtea cu plăci de ceramică în culorile mării, Indonezia fascinează prin locuinţele tradiţionale din lemn.

Chiar dacă este un oraş mic Vatra Dornei are ambiţii mari. De-a lungul anilor imaginea turistică a fost concentrată în jurul Cazinoului, cândva celebru, dar mai ales a hotelurilor dedicate curelor de întreţinere şi tratament. Azi este o staţiune balneară cotată dar făcătorii de turism de aici pariază pe atragerea unui nou segment de public. Tânăr, dinamic, dornic de aventură şi de experienţe inedite în natură.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Vatra-dornei-055.jpg\" "\\"Vatra")

Vatra Dornei Petru Ariciuc[/caption]\r\nÎn urmă cu vreo zece ani, germanii de la IBD-GTZ, veneau aici ca să implementeze un program de consultanţă pentru relansarea turismului prin proiecte şi noi forme alternative. Eforturile de atunci se văd acum când la Vatra Dornei, tineri devotaţi, sprijiniţi de administraţia locală, pun în practică şi dezvoltă experienţe conturate anterior. Ambiţia este la ea acasă chiar dacă resursele materiale au fost relativ modeste. Încotro se îndreaptă promovarea? Am avut ocazia să testăm pe viu, la faţa locului, în cadrul unui infotrip dedicat mediatizării unui proiect aflat în derulare. E vorba de produsul turistic „Ţara Dornelor”, care are ca punct de plecare Vatra Dornei, dar vizează dezvoltarea întregii zone prin activităţi turistice şi culturale, concentrate în cadrul unor programe ce beneficiază de fonduri europene.\r\n\r\nIlie Boncheş, bun cunoscător al zonei, ales în acest an primar al localităţii, ne spune încă de la început că reconversia prin turism a zonei presupune multă muncă şi este un proces de durată. El e de părere că potenţialul natural permite o proiecţie pentru generaţiile viitoare şi aici intervine o responsabilitate pe care instituţia pe care o conduce şi-o asumă. „Vatra Dornei era cunoscută mai ales pentru potenţialul său curativ şi de tratament. Bazinul Dornelor a devenit renumit ca staţiune balneară încă din a doua jumătate a secolului al XVIII-lea când apele minerale din Vatra Dornei, Candreni, Şaru Dornei, erau studiate de Hacquette de Nurnberg. La 1812, de exemplu, la Poiana Negrii se îmbuteliau circa 50.000 de sticle cu ape minerale. Începând cu anii 1935 la Vatra Dornei a luat naştere o puternică mişcare turistică axată pe dezvoltarea turismului activ. Un an mai târziu era editat un mic ghid al Dornei unde se specificau oportunităţile turistice – de la Parcul central până la terenuri de sport şi o serie de trasee turistice din masivele Giumalău, Rarău, Suhard şi Călimani, dar şi adresele unor ghizi montani din zonă. În ultimele două decenii, cu toate greutăţile economice cu care se confruntă zona, s-a dezvoltat baza de cazare nu numai la nivel urban ci şi în zonele rurale unde au apărut sute de pensiuni şi mici hoteluri. Deci din punct de vedere logistic avem toate argumentele să ţintim spre atragerea unui public divers şi să depăşim mitul conform căruia Vatra Dornei este o staţiune căutată numai de oameni de vârsta a treia”.

Vatra Dornei primar Ilie Bonches[/caption]\r\n\r\nCum va fi schimbată această percepţie? Vestea bună este că din ce în ce mai mulţi tineri se implică în industria turistică locală, o parte dintre ei crescând şi concentrându-se pe dezvoltarea de programe susţinute de secţia de turism susţinută de către Primărie. Petru Ariciuc, liderul Direcţiei de Turism, Cultură şi Sport ne-a arătat pe parcursul a trei zile că turistul care vine la Vatra Dornei nu are timp să se plictisească. „În cadrul programului „Ţara Dornelor”, sunt descrise numeroase oportunităţi. Amatorii de schi au la dispoziţie pe timpul iernii, pârtiile Telescaun (cu o lungime de 3.200 de metri), Parc (900 de metri), respectiv Veveriţa (850 de metri lungime), ce beneficiază de instalaţie de zăpadă artificială şi de iluminat nocturn. Şi în restul sezoanelor turismul activ este la el acasă. Cei dornici de natură şi aventură pot face river rafting pe Bistriţa aurie, o distracţie de top putem spune, foarte căutată în ultima vreme, pot face Nordic Walking, pe trasee scurte de drumeţie, ciclism montan - avem şi un festival dedicat acestei activităţi -, dar şi de escaladă şi alpinism în Munţii Giumalău, Rarău ori Munţii Bistriţei. Cei veniţi aici trebuie să testeze zonele ecoturistice şi activităţi outdoor de genul Via Ferrata, în centrul staţiunii Vatra Dornei, să urce la Vârful Diecilor (1301 metri), cu telescaunul. Aici pot desfăşura activităţi de tubing, paintball, şi pot servi o cină tradiţională la stâna turistică de lângă Cabana Telescaun”.\r\nTuriştii tineri, individuali sau în grup, pot urca pe platoul Runc unde au posibilitatea să facă plimbări ecvestre prin pădure, însoţiţi fireşte de ghizi experimentaţi, dar pot cocheta şi cu creşterea... adrenalinei, cu ajutorul tirolienei.

VATRA DORNEI – Mai mult decât te aştepţi\n\n
Chiar dacă este un oraş mic Vatra Dornei are ambiţii mari. De-a lungul anilor imaginea turistică a fost concentrată în jurul Cazinoului, cândva celebru, dar mai ales a hotelurilor dedicate curelor de întreţinere şi tratament. Azi este o staţiune balneară cotată dar făcătorii de turism de aici pariază pe atragerea unui nou segment de public. Tânăr, dinamic, dornic de aventură şi de experienţe inedite în natură.\n
Vatra Dornei Petru Ariciuc[/caption]\nÎn urmă cu vreo zece ani, germanii de la IBD-GTZ, veneau aici ca să implementeze un program de consultanţă pentru relansarea turismului prin proiecte şi noi forme alternative. Eforturile de atunci se văd acum când la Vatra Dornei, tineri devotaţi, sprijiniţi de administraţia locală, pun în practică şi dezvoltă experienţe conturate anterior. Ambiţia este la ea acasă chiar dacă resursele materiale au fost relativ modeste. Încotro se îndreaptă promovarea? Am avut ocazia să testăm pe viu, la faţa locului, în cadrul unui infotrip dedicat mediatizării unui proiect aflat în derulare. E vorba de produsul turistic „Ţara Dornelor”, care are ca punct de plecare Vatra Dornei, dar vizează dezvoltarea întregii zone prin activităţi turistice şi culturale, concentrate în cadrul unor programe ce beneficiază de fonduri europene.\n\nIlie Boncheş, bun cunoscător al zonei, ales în acest an primar al localităţii, ne spune încă de la început că reconversia prin turism a zonei presupune multă muncă şi este un proces de durată. El e de părere că potenţialul natural permite o proiecţie pentru generaţiile viitoare şi aici intervine o responsabilitate pe care instituţia pe care o conduce şi-o asumă. „Vatra Dornei era cunoscută mai ales pentru potenţialul său curativ şi de tratament. Bazinul Dornelor a devenit renumit ca staţiune balneară încă din a doua jumătate a secolului al XVIII-lea când apele minerale din Vatra Dornei, Candreni, Şaru Dornei, erau studiate de Hacquette de Nurnberg. La 1812, de exemplu, la Poiana Negrii se îmbuteliau circa 50.000 de sticle cu ape minerale. Începând cu anii 1935 la Vatra Dornei a luat naştere o puternică mişcare turistică axată pe dezvoltarea turismului activ. Un an mai târziu era editat un mic ghid al Dornei unde se specificau oportunităţile turistice – de la Parcul central până la terenuri de sport şi o serie de trasee turistice din masivele Giumalău, Rarău, Suhard şi Călimani, dar şi adresele unor ghizi montani din zonă. În ultimele două decenii, cu toate greutăţile economice cu care se confruntă zona, s-a dezvoltat baza de cazare nu numai la nivel urban ci şi în zonele rurale unde au apărut sute de pensiuni şi mici hoteluri. Deci din punct de vedere logistic avem toate argumentele să ţintim spre atragerea unui public divers şi să depăşim mitul conform căruia Vatra Dornei este o staţiune căutată numai de oameni de vârsta a treia”.
\n\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_1515\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"1536\"] Vatra Dornei primar Ilie Bonches[/caption]\n\nCum va fi schimbată această percepţie? Vestea bună este că din ce în ce mai mulţi tineri se implică în industria turistică locală, o parte dintre ei crescând şi concentrându-se pe dezvoltarea de programe susţinute de secţia de turism susţinută de către Primărie. Petru Ariciuc, liderul Direcţiei de Turism, Cultură şi Sport ne-a arătat pe parcursul a trei zile că turistul care vine la Vatra Dornei nu are timp să se plictisească. „În cadrul programului „Ţara Dornelor”, sunt descrise numeroase oportunităţi. Amatorii de schi au la dispoziţie pe timpul iernii, pârtiile Telescaun (cu o lungime de 3.200 de metri), Parc (900 de metri), respectiv Veveriţa (850 de metri lungime), ce beneficiază de instalaţie de zăpadă artificială şi de iluminat nocturn. Şi în restul sezoanelor turismul activ este la el acasă. Cei dornici de natură şi aventură pot face river rafting pe Bistriţa aurie, o distracţie de top putem spune, foarte căutată în ultima vreme, pot face Nordic Walking, pe trasee scurte de drumeţie, ciclism montan - avem şi un festival dedicat acestei activităţi -, dar şi de escaladă şi alpinism în Munţii Giumalău, Rarău ori Munţii Bistriţei. Cei veniţi aici trebuie să testeze zonele ecoturistice şi activităţi outdoor de genul Via Ferrata, în centrul staţiunii Vatra Dornei, să urce la Vârful Diecilor (1301 metri), cu telescaunul. Aici pot desfăşura activităţi de tubing, paintball, şi pot servi o cină tradiţională la stâna turistică de lângă Cabana Telescaun”.\nTuriştii tineri, individuali sau în grup, pot urca pe platoul Runc unde au posibilitatea să facă plimbări ecvestre prin pădure, însoţiţi fireşte de ghizi experimentaţi, dar pot cocheta şi cu creşterea... adrenalinei, cu ajutorul tirolienei. Garantăm, sunt experienţe de neuitat.\n\nCum sunt promovate aceste atracţii? Petru Ariciuc ne spune că în cadrul proiectului „Ţara Dornelor” au fost editate peste 5.000 de ghiduri turistice, în română şi engleză, 15.000 de flyere, 12.000 de DVD-uri în patru limbi străine, ce descriu ofertele sistematizate pe trei segmente: Turism balnear, Turism activ respectiv Cultură şi Tradiţii.

De asemenea au fost promovate câteva dintre atracţiile turistice ale zonei Friuli-Venezia Giulia, unde activează aceasta. Gazdele - Agenţia Regională pentru Turism în colaborare cu Institutul Naţional Italian de Turism (ENIT) – au precizat că “Patrula aeriană, are la activ o tradiţie colectivă italiană, născută exact pe aeroportul din Campoformido şi Gorizia la începutul anilor ’20. Programul de zbor al echipei noastre cuprinde circa douăzeci de acrobaţii”.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Airshow.jpg\" "\\"Airshow\\"")
\r\nAlături de italianii de la Frecce Tricolori, care au evoluat cu 10 aeronave, au mai participat alte prestigioase formaţii de acrobaţie din lume şi din ţară: Turkish Stars (Turcia), Flying Bulls, Jurgis Kairys, artişti naţionali, circa 100 de piloţi şi paraşutişti de elită. Iacării Acrobaţi, Hawks of Romania, peste 100 de avioane şi elicoptere, au tăiat răsuflarea publicului (peste 50.000 estimează organizatori), în timpul evoluţiilor lor.\r\nAeroportul International Bucuresti Baneasa a găzduit cu acelaşi prilej prima Expoziţie de aviaţie generală din România, unde au fost expuse zeci de aeronave, de la cele ultrauşoare la business jet-uri, în prezenţa unor producatori de aeronave, proprietari de aparate de zbor - de la parapanta la businessjet-uri, ori a unor furnizori de servicii de aviaţie generală, şcoli de zbor, aerocluburi, furnizori de echipamente şi articole cu tematică de aviaţie, din ţară şi din străinătate. Organizatorii şi specialiştii au afirmat că Bucharest International Air Show & General Aviation Exhibition (BIAS 2012), a fost cel mai are spectacol aerian organizat vreodată în România. Evenimentul a fost patronat de Ministerul Transporturilor şi Infrastructurii, de Compania Naţională Aeroporturi Bucureşti, în parteneriat cu Primăria Generală a Municipiului Bucureşti.

\r\n______________________________________________________________\r\nIMPERIO ECO a făcut... parada modei\r\nEra şi timpul. La Bucureşti a fost prezentat prototipul tramvaiului Imperio Eco, produs de Astra Vagoane Călători Arad în colaborare cu Regia Autonomă de Transport Bucureşti (RATB) şi Siemens. “Parada” a fost făcută în spaţiile de producţie ale Uzinei de Reparaţii Atelierele Centrale (URAC Bucureşti) a RATB. Potrivit producătorilor, tramvaiul Imperio Eco asigură standardele de confort necesare călătorilor, fiind dotat cu instalaţie de climatizare, podea joasă, care facilitează accesul persoanelor cu mobilitate redusă, scaune tapiţate şi echipamente care asigură costuri reduse de exploatare şi mentenanţă. Vehicolul – ce oferă o capacitate de 200 de călători şi un preţ de circa 1,7 milioane de euro -, este dotat cu un sistem de recuperare a energiei, care asigură funcţionarea aerului condiţionat fără costuri suplimentare. „În marile centre urbane, care se confruntă cu creşterea numărului de autovehicule, tramvaiul are un rol important în descongestionarea traficului. În acest caz, nu întelegem decizia unor oraşe româneşti care dispun de linii de tramvai, dar intenţionează să renunţe la acest mijloc de transport ecologic” - a declarat Valer Blidar, preşedintele Astra Vagoane Călători. Prototipul Imperio Eco va putea fi văzut circulând în octombrie, la Zilele Feroviare 2012 - Summitul Feroviar de Investiţii în Spatiul Extins al Mării Negre, când Bucureştiul va atrage peste 300 de specialişti din peste 50 de ţări.\r\nALEX BARBU

\r\nO cafenea marca… Boeing 737 \r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Avion-cafenea-11.jpg\" "\\"Avion")
\r\nRomânii au trăit un moment unic când s-au întâlnit pe şoseaua ce duce spre oraşul Ploieşti (judeţul Prahova), cu un autovehicul de mare tonaj care transporta un Boeing 737-300. Avea doar… 49 de tone, 37 de metri lungime şi o înălţime de 5,5 metri. După ce a parcurs ruta Bacău, Buzău, Mizil el a fost… parcat la Ploieşti West Park, cel mai mare parc industrial şi logistic din sud-estul Europei. Fireşte, după ce va fi reasamblat, nu va fi folosit la transportul de călători ci va fi va deveni un inedit spaţiu pentru o cafenea, accesibilă din Autostrada 3. De aici, turiştii dar şi vizitatorii ocazionali vor avea o perspectivă de 360 de grade asupra întregului parc industrial. Cafeneaua este integrată în zona de business a parcului unde vor fi finalizate o clădire de birouri, un restaurant şi alte facilităţi - a declarat purtătorul de cuvânt al Alinso Group, Nicole Pulpea. În doi ani şi jumătate de la înfiinţare, Ploieşti West Park a atras numeroase companii de talie mondială precum Unilever, Lufkin Industries, Honeywell, Schlumberger, Halliburton, Lubbers, Odfjell Well Services etc. Aici se află primul depozit frigorific “verde” din România ce generează cu 25% mai puţine emisii de carbon, comparativ cu alte construcţii de acelaşi gen. De asemenea se află în stadiu avansat de montaj cel mai mare proiect de instalări pe acoperişuri cu panouri fotovoltaice. El vizează o suprafaţă totală de 10 hectare şi va genera 5,4 megawaţi.
ZBOARĂ CU... BICICLETA SPRE GULAŞ\r\nPe 1 septembrie se va desfăşura cu plecare din Capitală “Turul Bucureştiului cu Bicicleta - TBB, – primul eveniment Aero-Ciclistic din România. El este organizat de Asociaţia Piloţilor de Aeronave Uşoare Motorizate împreuna cu grupul TBB, la aerodromul de la Şirna. Organizatorii doresc să genereze un spaţiu de socializare între pasionaţi şi curioşi într-ale zborului şi activităţilor sportive outdoor, mai exact ciclismul. Astfel, pe ruta Bucureşti (Piaţa Presei Libere) – Periş – Şirna, amatorii pedalelor vor porni în zorii zilei (ora 8.00), urmând ca în jurul orelor prânzului să sosească pe aerodromul prahovean. Aici vor servi gulaş la ceaun, vor practica diverse sporturi (ping-pong, darts), vor participa la o tombola ce va premia pe 10 dintre ei cu un zbor cu avionul ultrauşor, oferit cadou de Aventura Card.\r\n__________________________________________________________

Gazdele - Agenţia Regională pentru Turism în colaborare cu Institutul Naţional Italian de Turism (ENIT) – au precizat că “Patrula aeriană, are la activ o tradiţie colectivă italiană, născută exact pe aeroportul din Campoformido şi Gorizia la începutul anilor ’20. Programul de zbor al echipei noastre cuprinde circa douăzeci de acrobaţii”.\n\nAlături de italianii de la Frecce Tricolori, care au evoluat cu 10 aeronave, au mai participat alte prestigioase formaţii de acrobaţie din lume şi din ţară: Turkish Stars (Turcia), Flying Bulls, Jurgis Kairys, artişti naţionali, circa 100 de piloţi şi paraşutişti de elită. Iacării Acrobaţi, Hawks of Romania, peste 100 de avioane şi elicoptere, au tăiat răsuflarea publicului (peste 50.000 estimează organizatori), în timpul evoluţiilor lor.\nAeroportul International Bucuresti Baneasa a găzduit cu acelaşi prilej prima Expoziţie de aviaţie generală din România, unde au fost expuse zeci de aeronave, de la cele ultrauşoare la business jet-uri, în prezenţa unor producatori de aeronave, proprietari de aparate de zbor - de la parapanta la businessjet-uri, ori a unor furnizori de servicii de aviaţie generală, şcoli de zbor, aerocluburi, furnizori de echipamente şi articole cu tematică de aviaţie, din ţară şi din străinătate. Organizatorii şi specialiştii au afirmat că Bucharest International Air Show & General Aviation Exhibition (BIAS 2012), a fost cel mai are spectacol aerian organizat vreodată în România. Evenimentul a fost patronat de Ministerul Transporturilor şi Infrastructurii, de Compania Naţională Aeroporturi Bucureşti, în parteneriat cu Primăria Generală a Municipiului Bucureşti.

\n______________________________________________________________\nIMPERIO ECO a făcut... parada modei\nEra şi timpul. La Bucureşti a fost prezentat prototipul tramvaiului Imperio Eco, produs de Astra Vagoane Călători Arad în colaborare cu Regia Autonomă de Transport Bucureşti (RATB) şi Siemens. “Parada” a fost făcută în spaţiile de producţie ale Uzinei de Reparaţii Atelierele Centrale (URAC Bucureşti) a RATB. Potrivit producătorilor, tramvaiul Imperio Eco asigură standardele de confort necesare călătorilor, fiind dotat cu instalaţie de climatizare, podea joasă, care facilitează accesul persoanelor cu mobilitate redusă, scaune tapiţate şi echipamente care asigură costuri reduse de exploatare şi mentenanţă. Vehicolul – ce oferă o capacitate de 200 de călători şi un preţ de circa 1,7 milioane de euro -, este dotat cu un sistem de recuperare a energiei, care asigură funcţionarea aerului condiţionat fără costuri suplimentare. „În marile centre urbane, care se confruntă cu creşterea numărului de autovehicule, tramvaiul are un rol important în descongestionarea traficului. În acest caz, nu întelegem decizia unor oraşe româneşti care dispun de linii de tramvai, dar intenţionează să renunţe la acest mijloc de transport ecologic” - a declarat Valer Blidar, preşedintele Astra Vagoane Călători. Prototipul Imperio Eco va putea fi văzut circulând în octombrie, la Zilele Feroviare 2012 - Summitul Feroviar de Investiţii în Spatiul Extins al Mării Negre, când Bucureştiul va atrage peste 300 de specialişti din peste 50 de ţări.\nALEX BARBU

\nO cafenea marca… Boeing 737 \n\nRomânii au trăit un moment unic când s-au întâlnit pe şoseaua ce duce spre oraşul Ploieşti (judeţul Prahova), cu un autovehicul de mare tonaj care transporta un Boeing 737-300. Avea doar… 49 de tone, 37 de metri lungime şi o înălţime de 5,5 metri. După ce a parcurs ruta Bacău, Buzău, Mizil el a fost… parcat la Ploieşti West Park, cel mai mare parc industrial şi logistic din sud-estul Europei. Fireşte, după ce va fi reasamblat, nu va fi folosit la transportul de călători ci va fi va deveni un inedit spaţiu pentru o cafenea, accesibilă din Autostrada 3. De aici, turiştii dar şi vizitatorii ocazionali vor avea o perspectivă de 360 de grade asupra întregului parc industrial. Cafeneaua este integrată în zona de business a parcului unde vor fi finalizate o clădire de birouri, un restaurant şi alte facilităţi - a declarat purtătorul de cuvânt al Alinso Group, Nicole Pulpea. În doi ani şi jumătate de la înfiinţare, Ploieşti West Park a atras numeroase companii de talie mondială precum Unilever, Lufkin Industries, Honeywell, Schlumberger, Halliburton, Lubbers, Odfjell Well Services etc. Aici se află primul depozit frigorific “verde” din România ce generează cu 25% mai puţine emisii de carbon, comparativ cu alte construcţii de acelaşi gen. De asemenea se află în stadiu avansat de montaj cel mai mare proiect de instalări pe acoperişuri cu panouri fotovoltaice. El vizează o suprafaţă totală de 10 hectare şi va genera 5,4 megawaţi.
ZBOARĂ CU... BICICLETA SPRE GULAŞ\nPe 1 septembrie se va desfăşura cu plecare din Capitală “Turul Bucureştiului cu Bicicleta - TBB, – primul eveniment Aero-Ciclistic din România. El este organizat de Asociaţia Piloţilor de Aeronave Uşoare Motorizate împreuna cu grupul TBB, la aerodromul de la Şirna. Organizatorii doresc să genereze un spaţiu de socializare între pasionaţi şi curioşi într-ale zborului şi activităţilor sportive outdoor, mai exact ciclismul. Astfel, pe ruta Bucureşti (Piaţa Presei Libere) – Periş – Şirna, amatorii pedalelor vor porni în zorii zilei (ora 8.00), urmând ca în jurul orelor prânzului să sosească pe aerodromul prahovean. Aici vor servi gulaş la ceaun, vor practica diverse sporturi (ping-pong, darts), vor participa la o tombola ce va premia pe 10 dintre ei cu un zbor cu avionul ultrauşor, oferit cadou de Aventura Card.\n__________________________________________________________

Surprinzător de bine este că banii s-au pus în mişcare în beneficiul turiştilor care se reorientează spre litoralul românesc.

\r\ncea a ofertelor şi serviciilor de 5 stele. Turiştii au la dispoziţie 68 de camere dintre care 4 apartamente. Deşi se află la circa o sută de metri distanţă de plajă, amenajările exterioare cu piscine şi jacuzzi compensează micul disconfort. Hotelul este pregătit pentru turismul de familie, de business, pentru evenimente punând la dispoziţie o sală de conferinţe cu 80 de locuri, excelent echipată. Complexul a fost inaugurat în urmă cu 5 ani. Pe parcurs a devenit primul hotel care a obţinut Eticheta ecologică pentru servicii de cazare. În plus este una dintre unităţile care operează cu sisteme de management de mediu, respectiv de calitate. Nu am putut pleca de aici decât după ce am vizitat baza de tratament (bucuraţi-vă de curele antistress, solar, baie turcească şi odihniţi-vă pe scaunele ceramice de relaxare şi masaj), care îi permite să funcţioneze pe o segment mai mare de sezon. Dacă mai adăugăm şi piscinele exterioare, bine organizate şi dotate, avem un tablou şi mai atractiv.\r\n\r\nPutem spune că staţiunea stă din ce în ce mai bine sub aspectul hotelier. Aici au fost concentrate cele mai mari investiţii turistice ale SIF Transilvania, prin firma THR Marea Neagră, condusă de Linica Stan, unul dintre puţinii „supravieţuitori” ai vremurilor când litoralul cunoştea o viaţă prosperă. Balada, Cerna, Hora, Sirena de 3 stele, respectiv Cleopatra, care este promovat la 4 stele, reflectă un demers. În staţiune se află şi un hotel cu nume romantic – „Cupidon”. Investiţiile l-au consacrat drept cel mai căutat hotel de 3 stele de pe litoral. Oferă 187 de camere. Ai unde să-ţi cheltuieşti banii - pe plaje, într-un restaurant complet renovat, care are şi funcţionalitate de sală de conferinţe. Aici – străbătând o grădină plină de şarm puteţi admira o plajă sălbatică cu ape... turcoaz. Amatorii de piscină au acces, costra cost, la cea a hotelului Cleopatra. Privitor la alimentaţie, aici se practică sistemul Self, care este apreciat pentru diversitate şi preţuri onorabile.

\r\nDe când a reapărut pe piaţă, în noua formulă complexul Dana din Venus, a dorit să se diferenţieze de hotelurile standard care oferă doar masă şi casă. Sunt aproape 15 ani de atunci. Investitorul era un sportiv iar pasiunea lui declarată a fost grădina interioară. Timpurile şi proprietarii s-au mai schimbat dar grădina botanică din interior a fost îmbogăţită ajungând la peste 200 de specii de plante. Aici poţi să-ţi procuri o amintiri unice de vacanţă. Desfăşurarea camerelor, vilele au doar un etaj, arată 39 de duble, dintre care 35 matrimoniale. Dacă intenţionaţi să ajungeţi aici, aflaţi că aveţi la dispoziţie un Centru de fitness dar şi o sală pentru evenimente, cu o capacitate cuprinsă 45 şi 180 de locuri.
NEPTUN – Cu Doina pe Insulă
\r\nLa data inspectării noastre staţiunea avea finisate toate echipamentele stradale ceea ce o recomandă drept cea mai bine sistematizată din acest punct de vedere, cu zone pietonale foarte bine remodelate. Despre „Cocor” ştiţi sigur că se promovează ca un complex pentru întreţinere şi tratament. Şi-a format cum era de aşteptat o clientelă proprie. O parte din celebrul cândva complex Amfiteatru-Belvedere-Panoramic, se află în paragină datorită „contribuţiei” firmei Unita, care n-a mai găsit resurse să o termine. Poate sezonul viitor. Jalnică imagine, Noroc că o mai atenuează plaja din faţa complexului, bine administrată. Să nu credeţi că suntem cârcotaşi. Am redescoperit pentru dumneavoastră două puncte forte ale staţiunii Neptun – Complexul de tratament Doina şi Complexul Insula. Primul e de nerecunoscut, în sensul pozitiv al cuvântului. Dotările îl arată la nivel superior celor 3 stele cu care este clasificat. Nimic din ceea ce ştiţi nu veţi mai găsi în interior. 320 de camere, dotate complet, restaurant cu 630 de locuri, o policlinică în care îţi face plăcere să îţi îngrijeşti sănătatea. Impresionant este Centrul de conferinţe – unul dintre cele mai bine dotate tehnic de pe litoral -, care are o suprafaţă totală de 2.000 de metri pătraţi. Deţine mai multe săli cu capacităţi cuprinse între 50 şi 300 de locuri. Cum era de aşteptat s-a schimbat şi structura clientelei. Locul pensionarilor cu resurse modeste a fost luat de cei cu venituri medii. Ei se bucură la preţuri mai mari, de beneficiile terapiilor marca Ana Aslan. Drept urmare, şi aceasta este o chestiune de marketing, baza de tratament ca şi hotelul nu mai funcţionează pe tot parcursul anului. S-a schimbat clientela, dar şi conceptul.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Litoral-161.jpg\" "\\"Litoral")
\r\nAl doilea complex este Insula, al cărui hotel de 4 stele a remodelat cererea din vecinătatea lacului Neptun. Nu deţine o capacitate mare - doar 25 de camere, dintre care 14 duble şi 4 apartamente -, dar terasa, crama, barul, camerele, toate arată că s-a investit cu cap iar consultantul a recomandat echipamente de calitate superioară. Proprietarii deţin şi celebrul restaurant pescăresc cu acelaşi nume. Ne-a reţinut atenţia politica de facilităţi pentru familiile cu copii care în funcţie de vârstă, între 4, 8 şi 12 ani, beneficiază de cazare şi masă gratuite sau la jumătate de preţ.
MAMAIA – toată lumea iese în stradă\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Litoral-247.jpg\" "\\"Litoral")
\r\n
E clar. Staţiunea a devenit deja cartier de vacanţă al oraşul Constanţa. Aici a erupt şi în acest sezon un vulcan de evenimente. Hotelul Yaki a trecut printr-un amplu program de modernizare. N-am fost încântaţi, de nuanţele de negru care decorează barul, restaurantul,lobby-ul etc. Trimite spre un anumit tip de clientelă şi în mod sigur nu asta şi-a dorit investitorul Gheorghe Hagi. Programele promovate de management ţintesc spre copii - Party Kids, turiştii activi cu „Seawolves Bike Fest”, spre cei dornici de refacere şi punere în formă - „Exotic relax & beauty” etc. Ele exprimă preocuparea de a „ieşi în stradă” şi aţi striga marfa de bună calitate. În interiorul complexului se află cele 122 de camere clasificate la 4 stele, restaurantele şi cazinoul, Centrul cu cele 5 săli de conferinţe şi mai ales – că doar veniţi în vacanţă -, Centrul Spa care vă oferă soluţii pentru recâştigarea... bunăstării fizice.\r\nAlte trei hoteluri şi-au continuat campania de diferenţiere. Savoy, se orientează spre turismul de familie; Hotel Del Mar se impune la clasa lui, drept cel mai bun hotel de business. Nu numai prin echiparea camerelor, a holurilor şi a sălilor de conferinţe, ci şi prin gastronomia promovată la un nivel internaţional; Picadilly s-a impus prin programele de aventură şi agrement pe care le-a diversificat, cea mai căutată – după cum ni se spune -, fiind Şcoala de windsurfing.
\r\nDe reflectat
\r\n- Majoritatea hotelurilor refăcute sau construite şi-au echipat camerele cu mobilier de culoare închisă. Greu de înţeles. Ar fi fost de preferat utilizarea unor nuanţe deschise chiar şi la decoraţii care ar contribui, fără îndoială, la crearea unei bune dispoziţii în rândul turiştilor. Doar sunt locuri de vacanţă.
\r\n- În multe hoteluri modernizate se observă o „invazie” de tablouri kitsch, atât sub aspectul tematicii cât şi a materialelor din care au fost realizate. Agresează ochiul şi prin aglomerările fără nicio noimă (pe holuri, la recepţie şi lobby bar). Adăugăm „pasiunea” pentru veioze şi aplice chinezeşti, care se „armonizează” excelent cu... peisaje montane, cascade şi portrete triste. Aspectele merită corectate.
\r\n- Discuţia pro şi contra despre All Inclusive pe litoralul românesc, adaptat în diferite forme originale, vezi doamne un gen de Romanian Style, va continua în mod sigur în rândul specialiştilor. Noi am observat că sistemul Self (restaurant tip autoservire), practicat de hoteluri de 1, 2 şi 3 stele, se potriveşte momentului actual. Bonurile valorice ori tichetele de masă, deşi aparţin unui timp „expirat”, se dovedesc încă utile acestui sistem. Ţin turistul aproape de restaurantele hotelului, dar îi lasă şi libertatea pentru alte opţiuni de vacanţă.

Nu deţine o capacitate mare - doar 25 de camere, dintre care 14 duble şi 4 apartamente -, dar terasa, crama, barul, camerele, toate arată că s-a investit cu cap iar consultantul a recomandat echipamente de calitate superioară. Proprietarii deţin şi celebrul restaurant pescăresc cu acelaşi nume. Ne-a reţinut atenţia politica de facilităţi pentru familiile cu copii care în funcţie de vârstă, între 4, 8 şi 12 ani, beneficiază de cazare şi masă gratuite sau la jumătate de preţ.
\nMAMAIA – toată lumea iese în stradă
\nE clar. Staţiunea a devenit deja cartier de vacanţă al oraşul Constanţa. Aici a erupt şi în acest sezon un vulcan de evenimente. Hotelul Yaki a trecut printr-un amplu program de modernizare. N-am fost încântaţi, de nuanţele de negru care decorează barul, restaurantul,lobby-ul etc. Trimite spre un anumit tip de clientelă şi în mod sigur nu asta şi-a dorit investitorul Gheorghe Hagi. Programele promovate de management ţintesc spre copii - Party Kids, turiştii activi cu „Seawolves Bike Fest”, spre cei dornici de refacere şi punere în formă - „Exotic relax & beauty” etc. Ele exprimă preocuparea de a „ieşi în stradă” şi aţi striga marfa de bună calitate. În interiorul complexului se află cele 122 de camere clasificate la 4 stele, restaurantele şi cazinoul, Centrul cu cele 5 săli de conferinţe şi mai ales – că doar veniţi în vacanţă -, Centrul Spa care vă oferă soluţii pentru recâştigarea... bunăstării fizice.\nAlte trei hoteluri şi-au continuat campania de diferenţiere. Savoy, se orientează spre turismul de familie; Hotel Del Mar se impune la clasa lui, drept cel mai bun hotel de business. Nu numai prin echiparea camerelor, a holurilor şi a sălilor de conferinţe, ci şi prin gastronomia promovată la un nivel internaţional; Picadilly s-a impus prin programele de aventură şi agrement pe care le-a diversificat, cea mai căutată – după cum ni se spune -, fiind Şcoala de windsurfing.
\nDe reflectat
\n- Majoritatea hotelurilor refăcute sau construite şi-au echipat camerele cu mobilier de culoare închisă. Greu de înţeles. Ar fi fost de preferat utilizarea unor nuanţe deschise chiar şi la decoraţii care ar contribui, fără îndoială, la crearea unei bune dispoziţii în rândul turiştilor. Doar sunt locuri de vacanţă.
\n- În multe hoteluri modernizate se observă o „invazie” de tablouri kitsch, atât sub aspectul tematicii cât şi a materialelor din care au fost realizate. Agresează ochiul şi prin aglomerările fără nicio noimă (pe holuri, la recepţie şi lobby bar). Adăugăm „pasiunea” pentru veioze şi aplice chinezeşti, care se „armonizează” excelent cu... peisaje montane, cascade şi portrete triste. Aspectele merită corectate.
\n- Discuţia pro şi contra despre All Inclusive pe litoralul românesc, adaptat în diferite forme originale, vezi doamne un gen de Romanian Style, va continua în mod sigur în rândul specialiştilor. Noi am observat că sistemul Self (restaurant tip autoservire), practicat de hoteluri de 1, 2 şi 3 stele, se potriveşte momentului actual. Bonurile valorice ori tichetele de masă, deşi aparţin unui timp „expirat”, se dovedesc încă utile acestui sistem. Ţin turistul aproape de restaurantele hotelului, dar îi lasă şi libertatea pentru alte opţiuni de vacanţă.

În cele peste 160 de pagini însoţite de circa 80 de fotografii sunt prezentate obiective din Bucureşti, Bucovina, Sibiu, Sighişoara etc, dar şi tradiţii din locuri unice. Într-un capitol Losko – un apreciat membru al FIJET -, scrie despre Bucovina astfel: “Am rămas uluit de frumuseţea satelor bucovinene. Fiecare casă este o operă de artă în sine. Este evident că oamenii şi-au dăruit şi şi-au pus tot sufletul atunci când le-au construit. Fiecare motiv decorativ este unic.\n\nN-am putut să-mi dezlipesc ochii de pe aceste frumuseţi arhitectonice. Am fost impresionat şi de infrastructura excelentă de care beneficiază acest colţ de Rai din România”. Cartea a apărut în versiunile ucraineană şi engleză.
O premieră - Dicţionarul croat-român
\nPentru cei care optează pentru o vacanţă pe coastele însorite ale Croaţiei C.H. Beck - editură cu peste 12 ani de activitate şi aproape 1.150 de titluri tipărite ,- a lansat primul Dicţionar croat-român. Lucrarea are la bază o concepţie lexicografică modernă. Au fost utilizate dicţionarele fundamentale explicative ale limbilor croată şi română, precum şi cele bilingve, redactate de R. Flora, H. Gămulescu, M. Jivcovici, M. Tomici, V. Putanec, J. Jernej şi alţii.

\r\n\r\nCu ani în urmă The Guardian recomanda turiştilor străini mănăstirile din Bucovina şi staţiunea Poiana Braşov. Anul trecut cotidianul britanic recomanda pentru vacanţe mai multe destinaţii româneşti, printre care Munţii Carpaţi, oraşele din Transilvania, Bucureşti şi Delta Dunării.\r\nÎntr-un articol recent publicaţia face noi recomandări turiştilor britanici dornici de o vacanţă activă, din care nu lipseşte România. Editorul prezintă un top cu destinaţii unde pot fi practicate diverse sporturi. Astfel amatorii de aventură şi drumeţii care caută noi provocări se pot îndrepta spre Munţii Făgăraş despre care publicaţia scrie că “ofera privelişti uimitoare ale lacurilor glaciare şi ale văilor abrupte”. Preţurile sunt considerate accesibile. Spre exemplu, o călătorie de 8 zile şi cazare în cabane montane, pensiune completă, cu 2 zile de trekking în Parcul Naţional Piatra Craiului, transfer şi ghid montan, costă de la 655 de lire sterline/persoană. Marele tur al Carpaţilor - un circuit de 15 zile costă de la 1.695 de lire sterline, Maramureşul Mitic – un program de 8 zile este recomandat la peste 1.000 de lire sterline, iar Transilvania - Tărâmul lui Dracula – cu o durată tot de 8 zile, porneşte de la 845 de lire sterline.\r\nRomânia figurează în topul The Guardian alături de Portugalia, Italia, Franţa, Austria, Spania etc. Portugalia e recomandată pentru surf şi yoga, Italia - pentru călărie, Sardinia – pentru activitaţi multiple, Suedia pentru canoe, Franţa pentru ciclism, Austria pentru mountain-biking. Azorele – ceva mai exotice, pentru înot cu delfinii, Spania – pentru kitesurfing iar Finlanda, pentru a admira aurora boreală.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nOKTOBERFEST BRAŞOV - Un râu de bere\r\n

\r\n\r\nCel mai mare Festival al berii din România şi-a consumat o nouă ediţie. Între 6 şi 9 septembrie, Oktoberfest Braşov a tras cortina de spumă albă peste ce-a de-a IV-a ediţie. Conform tradiţiei organizatorul - Clubul Economic German a beneficiat de susţinerea mărcii Ciucaş, în calitate de partener principal. Tot conform tradiţiei Traveller Magazin a fost unul dintre partenerii media ai manifestării. Ea a atras în inima cetăţii Braşovului peste 150.000 de vizitatori, printre care grupuri de australieni, japonezi, austrieci, nemţi, elveţieni, italieni, americani, care savurat tradiţiile bavareze care s-au împletit de minune cu cele româneşti.\r\nPerimetrul Arenei Sportive „Ion Ţiriac”, a atras braşoveni dar şi turişti ce au avut de ales între a se distra în cortul cu peste 4.000 de locuri sau la teresa bavareză cu circa 800 de locuri. S-au dat în spectacol formaţiile tipice Oktoberfest, deja celebrii Wirbelwind şi – Trupa 6, foarte îndrăgită aici. Printre halbele de bere s-a consumat şi concursul Miss Oktoberfest. N-a contat greutatea sau aspectul fiecărei concurente şi mai ales creativitatea şi spontaneitatea. Publicul a fost desigur un juriu ideal. Premiul 1, oferit de Ciucaş, a constat într-un dozator de bere montat şi aprovizionat în casa câştigătoarei, pe parcursul unei luni. Vizitatorii au avut parte şi de dueluri cu wurşti supradimensionaţi din... burete, de aruncări la ţintă cu covrigi uriaşi şi de partide de pescuit... doze de bere dintr-un heleşteu cu apă rece. Distracţia a continuat şi în zonele de jocuri dar şi în cele ale standurilor cu delicatese locale şi din Bayern, cu suveniruri, articole şi accesorii de îmbrăcăminte, artizanale etc. Nici gurmanzii n-au fost uitaţi. Alături de sortimente de bere autohtonă şi germană, ei s-au delectat cu mâncăruri tradiţionale, cârnăciori autohtoni şi cu renumiţii türingeri. Alte detalii găsiţi la adresa www.oktoberfestromania.ro.\r\nOktoberfest, cea mai renumită sărbătoare a berii din lume care se desfăşoară în oraşul german München de 202 ani. Succesul Oktoberfest Braşov i-a determinat pe membrii Clubului Economic German, o comunitate de afaceri foarte puternică, să îmbunătăţească an de an conceptul festivalului care deşi poartă numele Oktoberfest, se organizează la Braşov în luna septembrie.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nTULCEA: S-A TRAS TARE LA VÂSLE\r\nLa începutul lunii septembrie s-a consumat la Tulcea a doua ediţie a Rowmania Fest - Festivalul Internaţional al Bărcilor cu Vâsle. El a inclus Concursul internaţional de vâslit în canotci de 10+1 locuri - Danube Connection. În paralel s-a desfăşurat şi târgul proiectelor de investiţii sociale în Delta Dunării, continuat de o masă rotundă concentrată pe două teme – asocierea în mediul rural şi turismul responsabil dezvoltat de mişcarea Rowmania. Un moment important l-a constituit întâmpinarea caiaciştilor şi canoiştilor participanţi la Tour International Danubien, o flotilă de peste 100 de bărci, conduse în port de către lotca lui Paul Condrat de la Jurilovca, ce a arborat marele pavoaz. Echipajele au pornit de la izvoarele Dunării ajungând la Tulcea după un voiaj de două luni. Alte evenimente ce au dat consistenţă manifestării au fost Competiţia pescărească Ivan Patzaichin, show-ul culinar Slow Fish, proiecţiile de film şi spectacolul tradiţional oferit de comunităţilor locale, concertele Rock and Row etc.\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nLA IERUSALIM CU AURELIA MĂRGINEAN\r\n\r\n83 de lucrări semnate de artista Aurelia Stoie Mărginean, pot fi admirate până la sfârşitul lunii septembrie la Muzeul Naţional al Satului „Dimitrie Gusti”.

\r\n\r\n“DINO PARC” LA RÂŞNOV\r\n\r\nE posibil. În mod sigur în acest oraş va apărea un asemenea parc tematic. Proiectul beneficiază deja de finanţare asigurată prin ADR Centru din Alba Iulia. Valoarea investiţiei se ridică la peste 22 milioane de lei. Parcul recreativ va fi prevăzut cu foişoare de observaţie şi studiu, amplasate în… arbori. Ele vor fi dotate cu biblioteci în care vizitatorii vor găsi informaţii despre animalele preistorice. Într-o sală de cinema special dotată, vor avea loc prezentări video dar şi sesiuni de laser-shooting despre fauna presitorică. Copiii vor beneficia de locuri de joacă special amenajate, iar turiştii vor putea să se relaxeze urmărind spectacole despre istoria şi evoluţia dinozaurilor. În zona amenajată în aer liber, pe un traseu delimitat, vizitatorii se vor putea întâlni cu o inedită colecţie de exponate cu creaturi realizate la dimensiuni reale. Lângă fiecare exponat vor fi amplasate panouri informative caracteristicile şi perioada în care a trăit fiecare specie. Organizatorii estimează că în primul an de funcţionare “Dino Parc” va atrage cel puţin 200.000 de vizitatori.\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nTRADIŢIILE DEVIN ATRACŢII TURISTICE\r\n\r\nFundaţia Karitas, a organizat „Ziua lacului Şiriu” un eveniment ce face parte dintr-un program cu finanţare europeană. El sprijină o iniţiativă de promovare a valorilor româneşti şi a obiectivelor turistice cu mare potenţial. Spectatorii au admirat o paradă a costumelor populare buzoiene, au ascultat o parte din cele mai frumoase cântece şi dansuri populare munteneşti iar copiii au fost atraşi de concursuri şi activităţi interactive pe luciul apei lacului Şiriu. Cu o lungime de 10 kilometri, o suprafaţă de 500 de hectare şi un volum de 155 milioane metri cubi Şiriu este un lac de acumulare imens. El a apărut în urma construirii celui mai mare baraj de pământ (rocă, steril şi miez de argilă — volumul total al umpluturilor fiind de 8,3 milioane metri cubi) din România, dar şi din sud-estul Europei.\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nCONCERTE PRINTRE CRISTALE\r\n\r\nAmatorii de vizite subterane au acum la dispoziţie o peşteră amenajată chiar în inima minei Farcu, unică în ţară. Turiştii pot admira minunatele cristale, chiar şi de un metru lungime, o rezervaţie naturală, au la dispoziţie un muzeu minier dar şi o sală pentru concerte. Traseul din peşteră este străbătut cu un trenuleţ electric iar ieşirea se face cu liftul pe plan înclinat. Deschiderea peşterii face parte din proiectul „Metode inovative de valorificare a capitalului natural în situl Natura 2000 Defileul Crişului Repede – Pădurea Craiului”. El a beneficiat de finanţarea GEF Small Grants Programme, Programme Assistant şi Primăria Roşia. Paul Iacobaş, reprezentantul Centrului de Arii Protejate şi de Dezvoltare Durabilă - Bihor, a apreciat că valoarea lucrărilor de amenajare se ridică la circa 60.000 de euro.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU & MARA ANTON\r\n\r\n ','Pagini aurii si-a decernat premiile pe 2012, EVENIMENTE nr. 102','','publish','open','open','','pagini-aurii-si-a-decernat-premiile-pe-2012-evenimente-nr-102','','','2012-11-05 14:33:45','2012-11-05 12:33:45','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=1559',0,'post','',0),(1560,1,'2012-11-05 14:32:42','2012-11-05 12:32:42','','Congres turism rural','','inherit','open','open','','congres-turism-rural','','','2012-11-05 14:32:42','2012-11-05 12:32:42','',1559,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Congres-turism-rural.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1561,1,'2012-11-05 14:33:02','2012-11-05 12:33:02','','Ev The Guardian','','inherit','open','open','','ev-the-guardian','','','2012-11-05 14:33:02','2012-11-05 12:33:02','',1559,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Ev-The-Guardian.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1562,1,'2012-11-05 14:33:15','2012-11-05 12:33:15','','Octoberfest Brasov1','','inherit','open','open','','octoberfest-brasov1','','','2012-11-05 14:33:15','2012-11-05 12:33:15','',1559,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Octoberfest-Brasov1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1563,1,'2012-11-05 14:33:23','2012-11-05 12:33:23','PAGINI AURII ŞI-A DECERNAT PREMIILE PE 2012\nPe 11 octombrie a avut loc Gala Business Awards Pagini Aurii 2012.

Alte evenimente ce au dat consistenţă manifestării au fost Competiţia pescărească Ivan Patzaichin, show-ul culinar Slow Fish, proiecţiile de film şi spectacolul tradiţional oferit de comunităţilor locale, concertele Rock and Row etc.\n\n
\n\nLA IERUSALIM CU AURELIA MĂRGINEAN\n\n83 de lucrări semnate de artista Aurelia Stoie Mărginean, pot fi admirate până la sfârşitul lunii septembrie la Muzeul Naţional al Satului „Dimitrie Gusti”. Ele sunt reunite în expoziţia de acuarelă-grafică-pictură cu tematica „Ierusalim”. Este cea de-a 48-a expoziţie personală a artistei, absolventă a Academiei de Arte Vizuale „Ion Andreescu”, promoţia 1966. Aurelia este de asemenea membră Uniunii Artiştilor Plastici din România şi a Asociaţiei Internaţionale de Artă Plastică -UNESCO. Am remarcat în mod special lucrările „Lacrima lui Christos”, „Ierusalimul pe vânt de nisip”, „Vedere spre Muntele Măslinilor”, „Poarta Zionului” sau „Zidurile Ierusalimului în primăvară”. De vizitat.\n\n

\n\n“DINO PARC” LA RÂŞNOV\n\nE posibil. În mod sigur în acest oraş va apărea un asemenea parc tematic. Proiectul beneficiază deja de finanţare asigurată prin ADR Centru din Alba Iulia. Valoarea investiţiei se ridică la peste 22 milioane de lei. Parcul recreativ va fi prevăzut cu foişoare de observaţie şi studiu, amplasate în… arbori. Ele vor fi dotate cu biblioteci în care vizitatorii vor găsi informaţii despre animalele preistorice. Într-o sală de cinema special dotată, vor avea loc prezentări video dar şi sesiuni de laser-shooting despre fauna presitorică. Copiii vor beneficia de locuri de joacă special amenajate, iar turiştii vor putea să se relaxeze urmărind spectacole despre istoria şi evoluţia dinozaurilor. În zona amenajată în aer liber, pe un traseu delimitat, vizitatorii se vor putea întâlni cu o inedită colecţie de exponate cu creaturi realizate la dimensiuni reale. Lângă fiecare exponat vor fi amplasate panouri informative caracteristicile şi perioada în care a trăit fiecare specie. Organizatorii estimează că în primul an de funcţionare “Dino Parc” va atrage cel puţin 200.000 de vizitatori.\n\n
\n\nTRADIŢIILE DEVIN ATRACŢII TURISTICE\n\nFundaţia Karitas, a organizat „Ziua lacului Şiriu” un eveniment ce face parte dintr-un program cu finanţare europeană. El sprijină o iniţiativă de promovare a valorilor româneşti şi a obiectivelor turistice cu mare potenţial. Spectatorii au admirat o paradă a costumelor populare buzoiene, au ascultat o parte din cele mai frumoase cântece şi dansuri populare munteneşti iar copiii au fost atraşi de concursuri şi activităţi interactive pe luciul apei lacului Şiriu. Cu o lungime de 10 kilometri, o suprafaţă de 500 de hectare şi un volum de 155 milioane metri cubi Şiriu este un lac de acumulare imens. El a apărut în urma construirii celui mai mare baraj de pământ (rocă, steril şi miez de argilă — volumul total al umpluturilor fiind de 8,3 milioane metri cubi) din România, dar şi din sud-estul Europei.\n\n
\n\nCONCERTE PRINTRE CRISTALE\n\nAmatorii de vizite subterane au acum la dispoziţie o peşteră amenajată chiar în inima minei Farcu, unică în ţară. Turiştii pot admira minunatele cristale, chiar şi de un metru lungime, o rezervaţie naturală, au la dispoziţie un muzeu minier dar şi o sală pentru concerte. Traseul din peşteră este străbătut cu un trenuleţ electric iar ieşirea se face cu liftul pe plan înclinat. Deschiderea peşterii face parte din proiectul „Metode inovative de valorificare a capitalului natural în situl Natura 2000 Defileul Crişului Repede – Pădurea Craiului”. El a beneficiat de finanţarea GEF Small Grants Programme, Programme Assistant şi Primăria Roşia. Paul Iacobaş, reprezentantul Centrului de Arii Protejate şi de Dezvoltare Durabilă - Bihor, a apreciat că valoarea lucrărilor de amenajare se ridică la circa 60.000 de euro.\n\nALEX BARBU & MARA ANTON\n\n ','Pagini aurii si-a decernat premiile pe 2012, EVENIMENTE nr. 102','','inherit','open','open','','1559-revision','','','2012-11-05 14:33:23','2012-11-05 12:33:23','',1559,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2012/11/05/1559-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(1564,1,'2012-11-05 14:37:22','2012-11-05 12:37:22','BRUXELLES: 3 distincţii ECO\r\n\r\nFirma Sonimpex Serv Com, producătorul magiunului de prune şi al dulceţurilor de Topoloveni, a fost distins cu 3 noi premii la a treia participare consecutivă la competiţia anuală organizată de Institutul Internaţional de Gust şi Calitate (International Taste & Quality Institute) de la Burxelles.

\r\nANAT ŞI FPTR sunt doi noi parteneri ai „Travel Tech Conf & Expo - New Tech, Social Media and Marketing in 2012’s Tourism” care se va desfăşura la Grand Hotel Italia din Cluj Napoca pe 10 octombrie. Aceasta este prima conferinţă dedicată domeniului, organizată în Europa de Est. Proiectul manifestării este marcă Global-Conf.ro. Despre implicare asociaţiei Corina Martin, preşedintele ANAT sublinia că „Trendurile se schimbă de la an la an. Ne face plăcere să dezvoltăm acest parteneriat. Specialiştii trebuie să fie la curent cu ultimele soluţii şi tehnologii în materie de management, vânzare şi promovare a serviciilor turistice, să se alinieze la ultimele standarde cu care se operează în lume”. La rândul său Dragoş Răducan, vicepreşedintele FPTR spune că „Implicarea în parteneriat a venit din dorinţa de a susţine şi a găsi noi metode de a stăpâni evoluţia tehnologiei, care inevitabil îşi pune amprenta pe activitatea noastră. Pentru a dinamiza industria hotelieră este necesar să oferim membrilor şansa unei pregătiri continue. Vom avea ocazia să prelucrăm multe informaţii de specialitate ce vor fi furnizate de profesionişti de talie internaţională”, La Travel Tech şi-au anunţat participarea peste 300 de angajaţi, manageri ori acţionari din sfera turismului. Evenimentul include prezentări ale unor specialişti de la companii ca: Amadeus, MerlinX, Neckermann, Travelport, Zoover etc – ne-a precizat Florin Dradiciu, directorul Global-Conf.ro.

\r\nWorld Class – încă 3 centre de fitness“Până în 2014 avem ca obiectiv să intrăm cu conceptul nostru în 15-20 de cluburi şi locaţii. Avem semnate şi confirmate, noi locaţii care includ World Class Titan,în cadrul Iris Shopping Center, ce se va deschide în cursul acestui an, precum şi începutul construcţiei clubului pilot cu o suprafaţă de 4.000 de metri pătraţi, în Floreasca” – a anunţat Mikael Fredholm, CEO al World Class International.
Floreasca este unui dintre cele 3 centre de fitness în care World Class a anunţat că investeşte 5 milioane de euro. Celelalte 2 sunt poziţionate în zonele Asmita Gardens şi Aviatorilor. Anunţul a survenit după ce World Class a deschis al nouălea Centru de fitness din România în clădirea de birouri America House, în urma unei investiţii de 900.000 de euro.\r\nREGLEMENTĂRI

Deşi a fost contestat de către hotelieri, prin două dintre cele mai importante organizaţii profesionale – Federaţia Industriei Hoteliere (FIHR), respectiv Federaţia Patronatelor din Turism (FPTR) - Sistemul Integrat de Evidenţă a Turiştilor (SIET) va fi introdus în complexele de cazare din România. \"SIET este o aplicaţie informatică implementată de Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului, care cuprinde informaţii cu privire la structurile de primire turistice cu funcţiuni de cazare, clasificate şi care înregistrează în timp real turiştii cazaţi. Operatorii economici, proprietari sau administratori ai structurilor de primire turistice cu funcţiuni de cazare au obligaţia să respecte şi să aplice integral prevederile prezente” - se scrie în documentul elaborat de MDRT.\r\nHotelierii sunt de părere că introducerea acestui sistem va încălca intimitatea turiştilor. Unităţile de cazare vor fi obligate să se înscrie într-un sistem de evidenţă prin care se va putea afla în orice moment cine şi unde este cazat. MDRT a explicat că sistemul va ajuta atât la acumularea de date statistice, cât şi la combaterea evaziunii fiscale. În plus, prin corelarea informaţiilor furnizate de SIET, persoanele care au săvârşit infracţiuni şi sunt urmărite naţional sau internaţional vor putea fi reperate mai uşor. MDRT va avea acces la date anonime, respectiv număr de înnoptări, de persoane cazate, pe care le va pune la dispoziţie Institutului Naţional de Statistică, iar Ministerul Administraţiei şi Internelor va avea acces şi la datele personale. În nota de fundamentare se menţionează că pe termen mediu şi lung sistemul va avea un impact pozitiv. Structurile de cazare vor fi obligate să asigure la sosirea turiştilor completarea formularului “Fişa de anunţare a sosirii şi plecării turiştilor”. Fişele se vor întocmi într-un exemplar, vor fi grupate în ordine alfabetică şi vor fi arhivate pe un termen de 3 ani, cu respectarea prevederilor legale referitoare la protecţia datelor cu caracter personal. Obligaţia asigurării formularelor revine proprietarilor sau administratorilor structurilor de primire turistice. Hotelierii vor fi, de asemenea, obligaţi ca în termen de 60 de zile lucrătoare de la intrarea în vigoare a ordonanţei să-şi înscrie structura de cazare în SIET.\r\n\r\nPROPUNERI\r\nFPTS propune 10 Reguli de Aur
\r\nLitoralul românesc deţine 44% din structurile de cazare ale României şi reprezinta principala zonă de atracţie turistică în perioada estivală. Potenţialul merită valorificat la un nivel superior. În acest sens Federaţia Patronatelor din Turism şi Servicii consideră că este necesară implementarea a 10 Reguli de Aur, care, se speră, că vor conduce la acest rezultat. Iată propunerile organizaţiei:\r\n1. Înfiinţarea consiliilor de administraţie a staţiunilor după modelul bulgăresc din care să facă parte autorităţile locale, serviciile de urgenţă şi hotelierii; 2. Demararea cât mai rapidă a procedurilor de îndiguire astfel încât plajele litoralului românesc să nu piardă în continuare teren; 3. Reintroducerea poliţiei plajelor, astfel încat turiştii să se simtă protejaţi şi pentru a reduce la zero apariţia vânzătorilor ambulanţi; 4. Aplicarea unor reguli foarte stricte cu privire la hotelurile aflate în construcţie sau în demolare. Preluând modelul ţărilor cu tradiţie în turism, prin reglementări locale stricte, trebuie interzisă cu desăvârşire orice construcţie sau demolare a hotelurilor/teraselor/barurilor în timpul sezonului; 5. Puncte de prim ajutor/salvamar - astfel de puncte există deja, însa numărul lor este mic în comparaţie cu suprafaţa plajelor; 6. Stoparea imediată a unităţilor de cazare neclasificate, neînregistrate şi nefiscalizate, precum si vânzătorilor ocazionali de camere de pe marginea drumului; 7. Continuarea eforturilor de eliminare a invaziei algelor. Eforturile şi-au produs efectul în acest an, când algele au fost curăţate spre satisfacţia tuturor turiştilor; 8. Instalarea unui număr mult mai mare de pubele stradale; 9. Construcţia de toalete publice pe plajă şi în apropierea teraselor şi amplasarea de cabine de schimb pe plajă; 10. Găsirea şi implementarea unor soluţii pentru amenajarea unor noi spaţii de parcare.

\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Londra02-004.jpg\" "\\"Londra02")
Primul contact cu Londra este cel din aeroportul Heathrow, pe care aveam să-l\r\nrevăd de la distanţă de fiecare dată când plecam spre Eton Dorney, locul întrecerilor de canotaj şi caiac-canoe, comparabil ca amplasare cu lacul Snagov. O mulţime de voluntari mobilizaţi la Jocurile Olimpice din capitala Marii Britanii îi întâmpinau pe pasagerii chiar la check out, indicându-le cu extrem de multă amabilitate cum să ajungă la destinaţia dorită.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Londra02-042.jpg\" "\\"Londra02")
Dacă vi se întâmplă să ajungeţi în Londra şi să nu întelegeţi ce vi se spune, nu intraţi în panică! Nu aţi uitat limba engleză învăţată în şcoală sau în particular, pur şi simplu, unii londonezi vorbesc o altfel de engleză, numită cockney, în care au tendinţa de a pune accentul altfel decât ştiţi şi cu fraze din care uneori se mai întâmplă să lipsească silabe sau chiar prepoziţii. Uneori mi-a fost mai uşor să mă înţeleg cu londonezi de origine indiană sau pakistaneză decât cu vorbitori de cockney – o engleză care provine dintr-o zonă a Londrei numită East End. Pentru a ajunge de la aeroport la hotel ai două variante, fie cu celebrul taxi londonez pentru care plăteşti în jur de 100 de lire, fie cu trenul, la care biletul costă 17,5 lire. Bref, Londra are o reţea publică de transport fantastică, cu metrouri, autobuze şi trenuri urbane, reţea care face faţă unui oraş cu 12 milioane de locuitori.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Londra05-141.jpg\" "\\"Londra05")
\r\nDupă validarea legitimaţiilor de presă care mi-a permis accesul în bazele olimpice şi la Centrul Internaţional de Presă am ajuns la hotelul situat în apropiere de Tower Bridge şi, până la indeplinirea formalităţilor de cazare, am fost servit cu o prăjitură umplută cu cremă de cacao conform sloganului „Our warm welcome starts with a cookie / Urarea noastră de bun venit începe cu o prăjitură” pe care l-am întâlnit şi pe taxiurile care făceau reclamă hotelului. Am constatat că hotelul este amplasat în imediata apropiere a Turnului Londrei şi a celebrului pod Tower Bridge. Ceva mai în amonte, pe Tamisa, se află un alt pod celebru „London Bridge”. În zilele următoare, aveam să mă conving că, din punct de vedere arhitectural, Londra este un amestec de clădiri vechi, tradiţionale şi de clădiri hipremoderniste, precum turnul “30 St Mary Axe” sau Gherkin, aflat, de asemenea, în apropierea hotelului. Gherkin este a doua clădire ca înălţime din Londra, are 180 de metri, a fost construită în anul 2004, este deschisă publicului şi adăposteşte săli de conferinţe, baruri şi restaurante. Din păcate, din cauza programului încărcat nu am reuşit să o vizitez, ca de altfel multe alte locuri celebre din Londra.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Londra07-107.jpg\" "\\"Londra07")
\r\nÎn timpul Jocurilor Olimpice pentru transportul oficialilor, sportivilor, arbitrilor şi jurnaliştilor au fost create aşa-numitele „culoare olimpice” pe care puteau circula numai autoturismele şi autobuzele cu însemnele Olimpiadei. Aceste curse speciale, cu un orar respectat cu o stricteţe tipic britanică, au asigurat legătura dintre hoteluri şi Parcul Olimpic, unde se aflau clădirile Centrului Internaţional de Presă sau dintre Parcul Olimpic şi bazele sportive unde se desfăşurau competiţiile. Legitimaţia de acreditare trebuia prezentată la fiecare urcare în cursa specială sau la intrarea în arenele sportive unde jurnaliştii erau verificaţi ca în aeroport.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Londra08-027.jpg\" "\\"Londra08")
\r\nStricteţea a fost aşa de mare încât nu aveai voie să intri cu lichide, sticlele de apă trebuind golite sau lăsate în tomberoane. Acest fapt a determinat şi protestul jurnaliştilor cărora, după ce îşi abandonau sticlele cu apă la control, li se oferea posibilitatea de a-şi cumpăra în interior apă la jumătate de litru cu 1,6 lire. Şi preţul berii era destul de ridicat, spre 5 lire pentru un pahar, în timp ce la unele pub-uri de lângă Hyde Park puteam obţine o bere roşie, amăruie, tipic britanică, pentru 2 lire şi un pic. Atenţie, în Londra pub-urile se închid exact la ora 23. Nu trebuie să insistaţi, nu veţi primi nimic după ora închiderii, iar dacă zăboviţi cu paharul de bere după ora 23.15 riscaţi să fiţi amendaţi.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Londra10-068.jpg\" "\\"Londra10")
\r\nLegat de circulaţia în Londra, prima regulă care trebuie reţinută este ca, atunci când traversezi strada, să te uiţi nu în dreapta, ci în stânga! Apoi, dacă iei un mijloc de transport în comun, trebuie să ţii cont că în Anglia se circulă pe partea stângă, regula fiind valabilă şi la metrou. În ceea ce priveşte transportul cu metroul, costul tichetelor şi abonamentelor depinde de zonele în care doriţi să ajungeţi. Înainte de a merge la casă, puteţi lua de la intrare un pliant cu reţeaua metroului londonez, cu linii specifice şi împărţită pe zone.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Londra10-168.jpg\" "\\"Londra10")
\r\nÎn ceea ce priveşte mâncarea, micul dejun servit în hoteluri este extrem de consistent. Puteţi lua omletă sau puteţi comanda ochiuri, la care puteţi adăuga şuncă sau cârnaţi asemănători ca aspect cu cârnaţii proaspeţi de la noi. Există, totuşi, diferenţe la gust, cei londonezi fiind necondimentaţi şi mai dietetici. Tot la micul dejun puteţi servi o iahnie de fasole, cu un sos ceva mai dulce decât suntem obişnuiţi noi, românii. Adăugaţi ciuperci întregi sau roşii la cuptor, diverse sortimente de caşcaval, şuncă şi salam, porridge, produse de patiserie, sucuri, ceai şi cafea pentru a avea imaginea unui copios mic dejun englezesc.\r\nÎn categoria întâmplărilor deosebite din timpul olimpiadei, aş putea menţiona ziua în care celebrul turn cu ceas Big Ben a sunat atipic, la ora 08.12 pentru a marca începerea Jocurilor. Tot în această categorie aş menţiona ceremonia de înălţare a drapelelor naţionale, „împachetată” într-un adevărat spectacol, cu studenţi la actorie care au dansat şi cântat pe ritmurile unor piese celebre semnate Beatles sau Queen. Cu totul speciale au fost însă spectacolele şi ceremoniile de deschidere şi de închidere a Jocurilor Olimpice.\r\nAm asistat la un eveniment deosebit în Parcul Victoria, lansarea unei cărţi de benzi desenate, în care este prezentată povestea unui copil din Delta Dunării, de fapt povestea vieţii lui Ivan Patzaichin. Lansarea a avut loc în parcul Victoria, în dreptul unui panou cu imaginea marelui campion, în faţa căruia Ivan Patzaichin a oferit copiilor cărţi cu autograf. Indiferent dacă au fost celebrele arene Wembley sau Wimbledon, acolo unde se află un veritabil muzeu al tenisului, cu fotografii ale câştigătorilor, de unde Ilie Năstase nu avea cum să lipsească, ExCel Arena sau O2, terenurile de volei pe plajă, arenele pentru concursurile hipice sau pentru tir, s-a putut vedea interesul pentru sport al britanicilor şi vizitatorilor din întreaga lume. La baza de canotaj de la Eton Dorney au fost amenajate parcări atât pentru autovehicule, cât şi pentru biciclete. Am văzut o parcare de biciclete arhiplină, iar apoi în tribune circa 10 mii de spectatori veniţi să vadă calificările, spectatori care plătiseră 50 de lire pentru un bilet.\r\nPeste tot puteam găsi suveniruri cu însemnele Jocurilor Olimpice, mai scumpe în mall-ul de la intrarea în Parcul Olimpic şi de lângă gara Stradford International sau mai ieftine la mallul de dincolo de staţia de autobuze. Oxford Street este însă locul unde puteţi face cumpărături ieftine şi în care puteţi schimba la un curs bun, nu neapărat cu chitanţă, euro în lire, în case de schimb valutar amplasate chiar în magazine... Cât despre performanţele sportive ale românilor şi ale altor naţiuni, sigur le ştiţi. Căci peste cele cinci inelele care au decorat Londra, amintind de spiritul olimpismului, s-a tras cortina în urmă cu câteva săptămâni.

PARIS: RITZ S-A ÎNCHIS ! TRĂIASCĂ RITZ !\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Ritz-1.jpg\" "\\"Photographies")
Legendarul hotel Ritz din Paris, simbolul eleganţei pariziene şi al perfecţiunii, cunoscut pentru decorul clasic şi farmecul său unic, s-a închis. Nu de tot, ci numai pentru doi ani, perioadă în care va cunoaşte un amplu proces de geriatrie hotelieră. Directorul general Christian A. Boyens, a precizat că « este vorba de o renovare fără precedent a unei clădiri ale cărei dotării au rămas neschimbate de peste trei decenii.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Ritz-2.jpg\" "\\"Ritz")
\r\nCamerele, suitele, restaurantele, barurile, spa-ul, şi să nu uităm celebra şcoală de gastronomie condusă de Ritz Escoffier care activează în hotel, toate vor căpăta o strălucire nouă sub impulsul creativ al Cabinetului de arhitectură interioară de reunume internaţională Thierry W. Despont ». La rândul său preşedintele Frank J. Klein, a subliniat că “Ne-am angajat ca în acelaşi timp să conservăm şi să păstrăm farmecul atemporal ce pluteşte în aer la Ritz Paris. Evoluţia proiectului şi expresiile noii atmosfere cu care vor fi primiţi turiştii din 2014, pot fi urmărite pe site-ul nostru www.ritzparis.com. » Specialiştii în hotelărie consideră că printre motivele reale ale intrării în renovare se numără faptul că hotelul nu a reuşit să obţină parca « Palace », respectiv acerba concurenţă a hotelurilor de lux care s-au deschis la Paris şi concurează pe piaţa de 5 stele plus, cu dotări tehnologice de ultimă oră.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Ritz-regina-Maria.jpg\" "\\"Ritz")
\r\nRitz Paris a fost de-a lungul timpului locul preferat de artişti şi vedete, politicieni, oameni de afaceri, de familii princiare şi multe capete încoronate. Printre ele s-a numărat şi Regina Maria. Proprietar este miliardarul egiptean Mohammed Al Fayed. Camerele complexului au gazduit de-a lungul timpului pe Marcel Proust, (care a scris aici o parte din “În căutarea timpului pierdut”, şi s-a stins din viaţă tot aici), pe Prinţesa Diana (a fost şi ultimul loc unde aceasta a luat masa înaintea tragicei sale morţi), au fost gazda unor filme precum \"Love în the Afternoon\" sau \"The Devil Wears Prada\". A fost şi locul unde s-a format unul dintre marii maeştri ai artei culinare, August Escoffier. Bucătar la Ritz, Escoffier este astăzi considerat o figură legendară a gastronomiei mondiale. Pasionaţii de vinuri au petrecut seri memorabile în crama hotelului dar şi în baruri ca Vendome sau Hemingway, cel din urmă purtând numele scriitorului american pentru că acesta l-a eliberat de nazişti. Ce vremuri eroice ! Sophia Loren l-a considerat “cel mai romantic hotel din lume” iar Coco Chanel l-a ales drept reşedinţă. În ceea ce priveşte structura rafinatei şi bogatei clientele a hotelului ce-i mai mulţi oaspeţi care i-au trecut pragul au fost americani (27%), urmaţi de ruşi (10%), şi britanici (8%).\r\nANGELA SIMION \r\n_____________________________________________________________
MEMPHIS: O VACANŢĂ CU REGELE ROCKULUI\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Memphis-elvis-1.jpg\" "\\"Memphis")
\r\nEşti un fan Elvis Presley şi încă nu i-ai trecut pragul casei, la Graceland? Anul acesta, al 35-lea an comemorativ, aşteaptă, la Memphis, peste 75.000 de oaspeţi din toată lumea.\r\nPorţile se deschid şi microbuzul intră pe aleea umbroasă a domeniului. Ghidul audio îţi călăuzeşte paşii prin casa lui Elvis iar vocea sa şi cea a fiicei sale, Lisa Marie, îţi povestesc ceea ce vezi. Pardoselile albe, uşile cu vitralii, draperiile aurii sau albastru electric uimesc în suita de camere în stilul anilor 50, 60 şi 70. Se pot vedea cele 22 de maşini ale starului dar şi unul dintre avioanele sale private, botezat Lisa Marie; zeci de costume de scenă, sute de discuri de aur... Graceland a deschis deja trei noi expoziţii pentru ca turiştii care revin aici de zeci de ori să fie surprinşi în continuare.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Memphis-Elvis.jpg\" "\\"Memphis")
\r\nUna este “Elvis on Tour” – ce marchează 40 de ani de la primirea premiului Golden Globe. Pe lângă fotografii şi filme de arhivă, pot fi văute costumele şi bijuteriile purtate de rege în turneul din aprilie 1972, dar şi premiul în sine. Turul VIP de la Graceland are o nouă componentă, o expoziţie concepută de Lisa Marie Presley: “Elvis…Through His Daughter’s Eyes”. Sunt arătate publicului câteva cadouri făcute de Elvis fiicei sale dar şi fotografii inedite din viaţa de familie. Cea mai mare nouă expunere, “Icon”, este însă dedicată influenţei artistice pe care Elvis a avut-o asupra carierelor dar şi destinelor muzicale ale unor cunoscuţi artişti precum James Brown, Elton John, Wanda Jackson, Bruce Springsteen, Billy Joel sau Ringo Star. Un sejur autentic Elvis înseamnă cazare la hotelul de peste drum de Graceland, Heartbreak dar şi vizite în magazinele de suveniruri Elvis, restaurante şi cafenele dedicate acestuia. Dacă însă vă săturaţi de atâta agitaţie şi strălucire puteţi da o raită de câteva ore şi la casa modestă de lemn din Tupelo, Mississipi, locul în care s-a născut Elvis.\r\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n______________________________________________________
SUA: O NOUĂ PROVOCARE MARCA BRANSON\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Virgin-branson.jpg\" "\\"Virgin")
Fondatorul companiei Virgin Airwais a anunţat că se va implica în investiţii hoteliere. El va crea lanţul Virgin Hotels în parteneriat cu cu antreprenorul Alberto Beeck, acţionar al lanţulului hotelier Diego Lowenstein. Richard Branson a anunţat pentru viitorii trei ani o sumă de circa 500 de milioane de dolari. Într-o primă fază hotelurile vor fi poziţionate în oraşele americane New York, San Francisco, Miami, Los Angeles, Boston şi Washington. Capacitatea de cazare a fiecărei unităţi va fi cuprinsă între 150 şi 400 de locuri iar serviciile oferite vor avea standarde de 4 stele. Clienţii acestora vor fi “populaţii urbane, instruite şi creative, cu un nivel ridicat de pregătire”.\r\nNoua abordare confirmă interesul lui Richard Branson pentru domenii care prezintă perspective profitabile. Afacerile în care s-a implicat Virgin au avut profiluri foarte diferite. Branson deţine un adevarăt imperiu format din 300 de companii cu profiluri de transport aerian, media, telefonie mobilă, muzică, cluburi de sport, dezvoltări rezidenţiale, călătorii şi turism spaţial. Grupul Virgin oferă anual servicii pentru milioane de clienţi prin firme ca Virgin Hollidays, Virgin Mobile, Virgin Megastore, Virgin Cola, Virgin Trains etc. În cadrul grupului lucrează peste 50.000 de persoane din 30 de ţări.

Gherkin este a doua clădire ca înălţime din Londra, are 180 de metri, a fost construită în anul 2004, este deschisă publicului şi adăposteşte săli de conferinţe, baruri şi restaurante. Din păcate, din cauza programului încărcat nu am reuşit să o vizitez, ca de altfel multe alte locuri celebre din Londra.\n\nÎn timpul Jocurilor Olimpice pentru transportul oficialilor, sportivilor, arbitrilor şi jurnaliştilor au fost create aşa-numitele „culoare olimpice” pe care puteau circula numai autoturismele şi autobuzele cu însemnele Olimpiadei. Aceste curse speciale, cu un orar respectat cu o stricteţe tipic britanică, au asigurat legătura dintre hoteluri şi Parcul Olimpic, unde se aflau clădirile Centrului Internaţional de Presă sau dintre Parcul Olimpic şi bazele sportive unde se desfăşurau competiţiile. Legitimaţia de acreditare trebuia prezentată la fiecare urcare în cursa specială sau la intrarea în arenele sportive unde jurnaliştii erau verificaţi ca în aeroport.\n\nStricteţea a fost aşa de mare încât nu aveai voie să intri cu lichide, sticlele de apă trebuind golite sau lăsate în tomberoane. Acest fapt a determinat şi protestul jurnaliştilor cărora, după ce îşi abandonau sticlele cu apă la control, li se oferea posibilitatea de a-şi cumpăra în interior apă la jumătate de litru cu 1,6 lire. Şi preţul berii era destul de ridicat, spre 5 lire pentru un pahar, în timp ce la unele pub-uri de lângă Hyde Park puteam obţine o bere roşie, amăruie, tipic britanică, pentru 2 lire şi un pic. Atenţie, în Londra pub-urile se închid exact la ora 23. Nu trebuie să insistaţi, nu veţi primi nimic după ora închiderii, iar dacă zăboviţi cu paharul de bere după ora 23.15 riscaţi să fiţi amendaţi.\nLegat de circulaţia în Londra, prima regulă care trebuie reţinută este ca, atunci când traversezi strada, să te uiţi nu în dreapta, ci în stânga! Apoi, dacă iei un mijloc de transport în comun, trebuie să ţii cont că în Anglia se circulă pe partea stângă, regula fiind valabilă şi la metrou. În ceea ce priveşte transportul cu metroul, costul tichetelor şi abonamentelor depinde de zonele în care doriţi să ajungeţi. Înainte de a merge la casă, puteţi lua de la intrare un pliant cu reţeaua metroului londonez, cu linii specifice şi împărţită pe zone.\nÎn ceea ce priveşte mâncarea, micul dejun servit în hoteluri este extrem de consistent. Puteţi lua omletă sau puteţi comanda ochiuri, la care puteţi adăuga şuncă sau cârnaţi asemănători ca aspect cu cârnaţii proaspeţi de la noi. Există, totuşi, diferenţe la gust, cei londonezi fiind necondimentaţi şi mai dietetici. Tot la micul dejun puteţi servi o iahnie de fasole, cu un sos ceva mai dulce decât suntem obişnuiţi noi, românii. Adăugaţi ciuperci întregi sau roşii la cuptor, diverse sortimente de caşcaval, şuncă şi salam, porridge, produse de patiserie, sucuri, ceai şi cafea pentru a avea imaginea unui copios mic dejun englezesc.\nÎn categoria întâmplărilor deosebite din timpul olimpiadei, aş putea menţiona ziua în care celebrul turn cu ceas Big Ben a sunat atipic, la ora 08.12 pentru a marca începerea Jocurilor. Tot în această categorie aş menţiona ceremonia de înălţare a drapelelor naţionale, „împachetată” într-un adevărat spectacol, cu studenţi la actorie care au dansat şi cântat pe ritmurile unor piese celebre semnate Beatles sau Queen. Cu totul speciale au fost însă spectacolele şi ceremoniile de deschidere şi de închidere a Jocurilor Olimpice.\nAm asistat la un eveniment deosebit în Parcul Victoria, lansarea unei cărţi de benzi desenate, în care este prezentată povestea unui copil din Delta Dunării, de fapt povestea vieţii lui Ivan Patzaichin. Lansarea a avut loc în parcul Victoria, în dreptul unui panou cu imaginea marelui campion, în faţa căruia Ivan Patzaichin a oferit copiilor cărţi cu autograf. Indiferent dacă au fost celebrele arene Wembley sau Wimbledon, acolo unde se află un veritabil muzeu al tenisului, cu fotografii ale câştigătorilor, de unde Ilie Năstase nu avea cum să lipsească, ExCel Arena sau O2, terenurile de volei pe plajă, arenele pentru concursurile hipice sau pentru tir, s-a putut vedea interesul pentru sport al britanicilor şi vizitatorilor din întreaga lume. La baza de canotaj de la Eton Dorney au fost amenajate parcări atât pentru autovehicule, cât şi pentru biciclete. Am văzut o parcare de biciclete arhiplină, iar apoi în tribune circa 10 mii de spectatori veniţi să vadă calificările, spectatori care plătiseră 50 de lire pentru un bilet.\nPeste tot puteam găsi suveniruri cu însemnele Jocurilor Olimpice, mai scumpe în mall-ul de la intrarea în Parcul Olimpic şi de lângă gara Stradford International sau mai ieftine la mallul de dincolo de staţia de autobuze. Oxford Street este însă locul unde puteţi face cumpărături ieftine şi în care puteţi schimba la un curs bun, nu neapărat cu chitanţă, euro în lire, în case de schimb valutar amplasate chiar în magazine... Cât despre performanţele sportive ale românilor şi ale altor naţiuni, sigur le ştiţi. Căci peste cele cinci inelele care au decorat Londra, amintind de spiritul olimpismului, s-a tras cortina în urmă cu câteva săptămâni.

PARIS: RITZ S-A ÎNCHIS ! TRĂIASCĂ RITZ !
\nLegendarul hotel Ritz din Paris, simbolul eleganţei pariziene şi al perfecţiunii, cunoscut pentru decorul clasic şi farmecul său unic, s-a închis. Nu de tot, ci numai pentru doi ani, perioadă în care va cunoaşte un amplu proces de geriatrie hotelieră. Directorul general Christian A. Boyens, a precizat că « este vorba de o renovare fără precedent a unei clădiri ale cărei dotării au rămas neschimbate de peste trei decenii. Camerele, suitele, restaurantele, barurile, spa-ul, şi să nu uităm celebra şcoală de gastronomie condusă de Ritz Escoffier care activează în hotel, toate vor căpăta o strălucire nouă sub impulsul creativ al Cabinetului de arhitectură interioară de reunume internaţională Thierry W. Despont ». La rândul său preşedintele Frank J. Klein, a subliniat că “Ne-am angajat ca în acelaşi timp să conservăm şi să păstrăm farmecul atemporal ce pluteşte în aer la Ritz Paris. Evoluţia proiectului şi expresiile noii atmosfere cu care vor fi primiţi turiştii din 2014, pot fi urmărite pe site-ul nostru www.ritzparis.com. » Specialiştii în hotelărie consideră că printre motivele reale ale intrării în renovare se numără faptul că hotelul nu a reuşit să obţină parca « Palace », respectiv acerba concurenţă a hotelurilor de lux care s-au deschis la Paris şi concurează pe piaţa de 5 stele plus, cu dotări tehnologice de ultimă oră.\nRitz Paris a fost de-a lungul timpului locul preferat de artişti şi vedete, politicieni, oameni de afaceri, de familii princiare şi multe capete încoronate. Printre ele s-a numărat şi Regina Maria. Proprietar este miliardarul egiptean Mohammed Al Fayed. Camerele complexului au gazduit de-a lungul timpului pe Marcel Proust, (care a scris aici o parte din “În căutarea timpului pierdut”, şi s-a stins din viaţă tot aici), pe Prinţesa Diana (a fost şi ultimul loc unde aceasta a luat masa înaintea tragicei sale morţi), au fost gazda unor filme precum \"Love în the Afternoon\" sau \"The Devil Wears Prada\". A fost şi locul unde s-a format unul dintre marii maeştri ai artei culinare, August Escoffier. Bucătar la Ritz, Escoffier este astăzi considerat o figură legendară a gastronomiei mondiale. Pasionaţii de vinuri au petrecut seri memorabile în crama hotelului dar şi în baruri ca Vendome sau Hemingway, cel din urmă purtând numele scriitorului american pentru că acesta l-a eliberat de nazişti. Ce vremuri eroice ! Sophia Loren l-a considerat “cel mai romantic hotel din lume” iar Coco Chanel l-a ales drept reşedinţă. În ceea ce priveşte structura rafinatei şi bogatei clientele a hotelului ce-i mai mulţi oaspeţi care i-au trecut pragul au fost americani (27%), urmaţi de ruşi (10%), şi britanici (8%).\nANGELA SIMION \n_____________________________________________________________
\nMEMPHIS: O VACANŢĂ CU REGELE ROCKULUI \nEşti un fan Elvis Presley şi încă nu i-ai trecut pragul casei, la Graceland? Anul acesta, al 35-lea an comemorativ, aşteaptă, la Memphis, peste 75.000 de oaspeţi din toată lumea.\nPorţile se deschid şi microbuzul intră pe aleea umbroasă a domeniului. Ghidul audio îţi călăuzeşte paşii prin casa lui Elvis iar vocea sa şi cea a fiicei sale, Lisa Marie, îţi povestesc ceea ce vezi. Pardoselile albe, uşile cu vitralii, draperiile aurii sau albastru electric uimesc în suita de camere în stilul anilor 50, 60 şi 70. Se pot vedea cele 22 de maşini ale starului dar şi unul dintre avioanele sale private, botezat Lisa Marie; zeci de costume de scenă, sute de discuri de aur... Graceland a deschis deja trei noi expoziţii pentru ca turiştii care revin aici de zeci de ori să fie surprinşi în continuare. Una este “Elvis on Tour” – ce marchează 40 de ani de la primirea premiului Golden Globe. Pe lângă fotografii şi filme de arhivă, pot fi văute costumele şi bijuteriile purtate de rege în turneul din aprilie 1972, dar şi premiul în sine. Turul VIP de la Graceland are o nouă componentă, o expoziţie concepută de Lisa Marie Presley: “Elvis…Through His Daughter’s Eyes”. Sunt arătate publicului câteva cadouri făcute de Elvis fiicei sale dar şi fotografii inedite din viaţa de familie. Cea mai mare nouă expunere, “Icon”, este însă dedicată influenţei artistice pe care Elvis a avut-o asupra carierelor dar şi destinelor muzicale ale unor cunoscuţi artişti precum James Brown, Elton John, Wanda Jackson, Bruce Springsteen, Billy Joel sau Ringo Star. Un sejur autentic Elvis înseamnă cazare la hotelul de peste drum de Graceland, Heartbreak dar şi vizite în magazinele de suveniruri Elvis, restaurante şi cafenele dedicate acestuia. Dacă însă vă săturaţi de atâta agitaţie şi strălucire puteţi da o raită de câteva ore şi la casa modestă de lemn din Tupelo, Mississipi, locul în care s-a născut Elvis.\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\n______________________________________________________
\nSUA: O NOUĂ PROVOCARE MARCA BRANSON
\nFondatorul companiei Virgin Airwais a anunţat că se va implica în investiţii hoteliere. El va crea lanţul Virgin Hotels în parteneriat cu cu antreprenorul Alberto Beeck, acţionar al lanţulului hotelier Diego Lowenstein. Richard Branson a anunţat pentru viitorii trei ani o sumă de circa 500 de milioane de dolari. Într-o primă fază hotelurile vor fi poziţionate în oraşele americane New York, San Francisco, Miami, Los Angeles, Boston şi Washington. Capacitatea de cazare a fiecărei unităţi va fi cuprinsă între 150 şi 400 de locuri iar serviciile oferite vor avea standarde de 4 stele. Clienţii acestora vor fi “populaţii urbane, instruite şi creative, cu un nivel ridicat de pregătire”.\nNoua abordare confirmă interesul lui Richard Branson pentru domenii care prezintă perspective profitabile. Afacerile în care s-a implicat Virgin au avut profiluri foarte diferite. Branson deţine un adevarăt imperiu format din 300 de companii cu profiluri de transport aerian, media, telefonie mobilă, muzică, cluburi de sport, dezvoltări rezidenţiale, călătorii şi turism spaţial. Grupul Virgin oferă anual servicii pentru milioane de clienţi prin firme ca Virgin Hollidays, Virgin Mobile, Virgin Megastore, Virgin Cola, Virgin Trains etc. În cadrul grupului lucrează peste 50.000 de persoane din 30 de ţări.

\r\nPe 12 august s-a tras cortina peste Expoziţia Mondială 2012, găzduită de oraşul Yeosu din Coreea de Sud. Evenimentul se deschidea pe 12 mai, şi strângea sub acoperişul pavilioanelor sale nu mai puţin de 60 de ţări din întreaga lume. Tema centrală a fost „Viaţa marină şi de coastă: diversitatea resurselor şi activităţi de susţinere”.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Yeosu-expo-2.jpg\" "\\"Yeosu")
\r\nExpo Yeoshu 2012 s-a remarcat printr-un remember al invenţiilor prezentate de expoziţiile mondiale de-a lungul anilor, invenţii precum liftul (Dublin, 1853), roata din parcurile de distracţii (Chicago, 1893), televizorul (New York, 1939), dar şi prin monumente rămase în urma unor expoziţii cum ar fi Turnul Eiffel din Paris, Atomul din Bruxelles, Piaţa Spaniei din Sevillia. Expoziţia a fost organizată pentru prima dată sub denumirea de expoziţie universală, la Londra în 1851 şi a avut tematica ,,Marile expoziţii ale realizărilor industriale ale tuturor naţiunilor”. Scopul reuniunilor internaţionale a fost şi a rămas să unească tot mai multe naţiuni la un loc, fiecare individualizandu-se prin prezentarea în cadrul unui pavilion a ultimelor realizări industriale. În decursul anilor, tematica principală a expoziţiilor a trecut prin 3 etape: dezvoltarea industrială, culturală şi branding.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Yeosu-expo-3.jpg\" "\\"Yeosu")
\r\nAflată în etapă de branding naţional, Expo Yeosu 2012, a oferit naţiunilor un spaţiu armonios în care să-şi promoveze turismul, cultura prin intermediul tehnologiei de ultimă oră. S-au remarcat Japonia, Spania, Elveţia, Rusia, Germania şi China. Japonia a prezentat un film despre povestea unui copil afectat de tsunami-ul din 2011, tsunami în urma căruia şi-a pierdut casa şi familia. Deşi povestea era foarte tristă, modul de realizare a filmului a fost impresionantă. Spectatorii erau aşezaţi într-un teatru iar pe fundal rula un film de desene animate combinat cu holograme, astfel personajele din film erau când hologramă, când în desenul animat sugerând tragedia în tridimensional. Spania a abordat tematica expoziţiei cu un concept total diferit. În cadrul unui proiect aflat în derulare în această ţară, oceanografii au colectat mostre de apă din toate mările şi oceanele lumii de la mai multe adâncimi. Vizitatorul intra în pavilion şi se simţea ca şi cum se plimba pe fundul oceanului, algele sau coralii fiind reprezentaţi de vasele cu mostre de apă din toată lumea ce peste 10 ani vor fi folosite pentru elaborarea de medicamente de mare eficienţă. Elveţia a dorit să prezinte care sunt întrebuinţările apei şi cât este aceasta de importantă pentru dezvoltarea umanităţii, dar şi ce înseamnă apa de gheţar. Drept urmare aceştia au adus la Yeosu o secţiune dintr-un gheţar cu peste 10.000 de ani vechime.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Yeosu-expo-4.jpg\" "\\"Yeosu")
\r\nRomânia a „jucat” la... verde. Tema pavilionului nostru a fost Delta Dunării, reprezentată prin 3 zone: zona apei, a pământului şi a aerului. Primul segment a fost reflectat de un simbol unic, farul, care marcheaza prezenta omului în apropierea apei, a deltei şi a mării. În zona Pământ, vizitatorii au putut descoperi fauna şi flora din Delta Dunării, simbolul zonei fiind copacul vieţii. Aici s-au regăsit elemente simbolistice care ajută la descoperirea celor mai interesante specii deltaice. Copacul vieţii se continua la mezanin, unde vizitatorii au aflat despre etnodiversitatea Deltei şi a spaţiului dobrogean. Zona Aer era simbolizată de o sferă transparentă, amplasată chiar lângă copacul vieţii. Vizitatorii internaţionali au descoperit o gamă variată de specii de păsări rare, unele chiar unice, găzduite de Delta Dunării.\r\n\r\nImportanţa şi unicitatea Deltei Dunării a fost foarte bine comunicate. Şi îmbinarea de elemente ultramoderne KINECT pe ecrane LCD a fost fericită. Aici au putut fi urmărite imagini peisagistice, personajele - în realitate vizitatori ai expoziţiei -, toate fiind integrate ambiental printr-o muzică interactivă amintind de jocuri populare româneşti şi tradiţiile specifice Deltei. De asemenea am observat interesul deosebit faţă de expoziţia de vinuri românesti, reprezentative pentru numeroase regiuni viticole ale ţării noastre, pentru degustari şi prezentări de mărci de calitate. La acelaşi nivel s-au clasat şi băuturile tradiţionale naturale, dintre care amintim sortimente de rachiuri şi palinca. Logistica evenimentului a fost asigurată de către specialiştii touroperatorului român Olimpic International Turism, firmă condusă de George Sorin Nicolescu. Ea este foarte bine apreciată pentru experienţa acumulată şi exprimată la alte expoziţii, congrese şi manifestări internaţionale. Directorul Nicolescu ne-a declarat: „Pavilionul nostru s-a bucurat de aprecieri deosebite din partea vizitatorilor. Afluenţa a fost foarte mare. Schimbul de experienţă cu oameni de cultură, de artă, de afaceri şi specialişti din cercetare prezenţi la Pavilionul nostru precum şi cu reprezentanţii celorlalte Pavilioane naţionale a fost caracterizat de o cunoaştere dinamică cu certe beneficii ulterioare în comunicare şi parteneriate economice din domeniile respective”.\r\n\r\nExpoziţiile mondiale la care am mai participat în ultimii ani Aichi-Japonia, Shanghai – China, ca şi cea de la Yeosu-Coreea au, după cum observat, un numitor comun: contribuie la cunoaşterea interumană, promovarea imaginii României în lume din toate punctele de vedere: sociologic, cultural artistic, tehnic, potenţial de export. Din punctul nostru de vedere aş putea aprecia că toate au fost rampe de lansare pentru dezvoltarea turismului de incoming.

\r\n\r\nLa târg vor expune cele mai importante firme de profil, agenţii de turism şi tour-operatori, hoteluri şi pensiuni, agenţii de asigurări şi banci, organizatori de congrese şi turism de afaceri, organizaţii patronale şi asociaţii profesionale,organizaţii de promovare a turismului din strainătate, oficii, organizaţii şi instituţii de promovare a regiunilor turistice din România, dar şi prestatori de servicii de transport, de cazare şi de agrement. În acelaţi timp, vor fi prezente edituri şi instituţii culturale, dar şi reprezentanţi ai presei din domeniu: televiziuni, reviste, site-uri şi blog-uri consacrate. TRAVELLER MAGAZIN este unul dintre Partenerii Media ai Târgului. \r\n\r\nCu această ocazie, vor fi prezentate oferte de turism pentru sezonul de iarnă / primavară atât în România, cît şi în străinătate: turism cultural, rural şi de business, turism de tratament, destinaţii exotice, croaziere, turism de aventură etc. Pentru un plus de impact, companiile participante vor prezenta sub conceptul “instant booking” oferte şi discount-uri atractive, valabile doar pe perioada desfăşurării evenimentului. Organizatorii vor prezenta, şi în acest an, special pentru publicul interesat, un bogat program de evenimente conexe – conferinţe, seminarii, programe artistice, lansări de carte, prezentări de documentare, expoziţii de fotografie.Referitor la segmentul business-to-business, târgul reprezintă, pentru firmele expozante, o importantă platformă de reînnoire a relaţiilor existente, de fidelizare a partenerilor tradiţionali, dar şi de stabilire de noi contacte şi contracte. Astfel, Târgul de Turism al României îşi propune să contribuie la consolidarea industriei turismului din România, atât prin promovarea zonelor de atracţie turistică şi a serviciilor din ţara noastră, cât şi prin organizarea de seminarii menite să aducă în atenţia autorităţilor dificultăţile din acest domeniu.\r\n\r\nTârgul de Turism al României este un eveniment organizat de către Romexpo şi Camerele de Comerţ şi Industrie din România, în parteneriat cu ANAT – Asociaţia Naţională a Agenţiilor de Turism din România, FPTR – Federaţia Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc, ANTREC – Asociaţia Naţională de Turism Rural Ecologic şi Cultural şi OPTBR – Organizaţia Patronală a Turismului Balnear din România. “Întrucât vacanţele reprezintă întotdeauna motiv de veselie şi optimism, Târgul de Turism al României este un eveniment mult aşteptat, fiind totodată unul dintre cele mai frumoase târguri din portofoliul Romexpo. Atmosfera generală este foarte placută, iar publicul s-a obişnuit să aştepte cu interes acest târg pentru a beneficia de cele mai bune oferte de preţ. În acelaşi timp, este un eveniment la care firmele expozante ştiu să se implice cu adevărat pentru a atrage cât mai mulţi vizitatori la stand: se promovează intens, stabilesc oferte avantajoase şi îşi instruiesc cu atenţie sporită personalul. Suntem siguri că orice vizitator va trece pragul acestui eveniment va avea de unde să aleagă: fie un Revelion deosebit, fie un sejur la schi sau un week-end getaway şi, de ce nu, chiar un sejur exotic.”- a declarat Mariana Suciu - Directorul General al Romexpo.\r\n\r\nProgramul de vizitare este joi-sâmbătă 10-18, duminică 10-16.

La mai bine de trei ani de la înfiinţare compania flydubai va debuta de la 1 octombrie cu primele zborurile pe piaţa românească. Operatorul aerian arab diversifică ofertele de pe aeroportul Otopeni către cel din Dubai, oferite până acum de Emirates (cu conexiune însă din Istanbul), Qatar Airways (intrată de anul trecut cu patru zboruri la Dubai), respectiv Tarom (cu cursă directă, dar de noapte). flydubai va opera la rândul său patru zboruri săptămânale de le Aeroportul internaţional Henri Coandă din Bucureşti. Oficialii companiei au anunţat că tarifele vor porni de la 440 de euro cu toate taxele incluse. Tarifele permit un bagaj de cabina de maximum 7 kilograme, o geantă de mână sau pentru laptop şi un bagaj de cală de 20 kilograme. Un loc mai spaţios în avion presupune un cost suplimentar de 21 euro. La bord, pasagerii au la dispoziţie mai multe servicii opţionale, pachete de divertisment (oferind peste 150 filme, o parte în rezoluţie HD, 160 programe TV şi 280 de albume muzicale), selecţie de meniuri, băuturi şi produse Duty Free.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Fly-dubai-3.jpg\" "\\"Fly")
\r\nFlydubai, care este considerată cea mai mare companie aeriană din Orientul Mijlociu, deţine 23 avioane Boeing 737-800NGs. În următorii doi ani va mai achiziţiona înca 30 de avioane. Proprietarul flydubai este şeicul Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, conducătorul Emiratului Dubai, în acelaşi timp vicepreşedinte şi prim-ministru al EAU. Nicolae Demetriade, managerul World Travel, care reprezintă Emirates dar şi flydubai în Romania, ne-a declarat că prin intrarea pe piaţa noastră, compania va completa serviciile prestate de Emirates pentru zborurile de conexiune: “Turiştii vor avea posibilitatea să ajungă în 4,30 ore la Dubai şi să se bucure în întregime de nopţile de cazare pe care le plătesc la hoteluri. Se economisesc astfel cel puţin 2,30 de ore, un alt beneficiu pentru călătorii. Cred că, după intrarea pe piaţă a flydubai, circulaţia turistică va creşte atât pe segmentul de business cât şi pe cel de leisure în ambele sensuri. Mă aştept ca promovarea relaţiilor dintre noi şi EAU să fie mai consistentă, mai vizibilă Cetăţenii din Emirate, printre care mulţi investitori, apreciază serviciile turistice din ţara noastră. Sper că ei vor fi mai tentaţi să călătorească spre România, ce are şanse reale de a deveni o destinaţie de vacanţă. Flydubai şi-a propus să genereze o valoare în plus prin serviciile oferite. Tarifele companiei sunt competitive, iar serviciile excelente. Practic, pe segmentul opţional, plăteşti la bord numai ceea ce doreşti să consumi. Aşa e corect. Flota flydubai este avansată din punct de vedere tehnologic, având modificate motoarele şi aripile pentru a reduce emisia de noxe şi de zgomot, asigurând, astfel, protecţia mediului înconjurator. Modificare contribuie la reducerea consumului de combustibil, care se reflectă în costuri. Avioanele sunt noi şi de ultimă generaţie, iar echipajele vor avea şi membri care vorbesc limba română”.\r\n\r\nDemetriade ne-a mai relevat încă un avantaj: Puternicele conexiuni oferite din Dubai. “Transportatorul şi-a extins operarea în Europa de Est şi Centrală, acoperind 15 destinaţii în 10 ţări. Pasagerii vor putea călători în Dubai sau mai departe, către una dintre cele 45 de destinaţii operate de companie în zona Golfului, Orientul Mijlociu, Africa, Oceanul Indian şi Asia”. În primul trimestru al anului, conform statisticilor, aeroportul din Dubai a consemnat o creştere de peste 35% a vizitatorilor din această regiune, comparativ cu perioada similară a anului trecut. Referindu-se la tarifele de zbor managerul World Travel ne-a mai spus că “preţul de pornire de 440 Euro, nu este unul promoţional, de intrare. El reflectă costurile companiei. Acum lucrăm pe o piaţă atipică dominată de preţul cel mai mic. În funcţie de cum va convinge piaţa e posibil ca acesta să şi scadă. Mai e posibil ca în viitor să apară şi un Code Share, cu o companie românească”. \r\n\r\nM.

„Touroperatorii germani TUI şi ITS se retrag de pe piaţa românească”. Mamă, ce bombă! Anunţată cu surle şi trâmbiţe de ştiriştii obsedaţi de evenimente şoc ştirea e un balon de săpun de proastă calitate. Mai întâi pentru că cei doi operatori nu au revenit cu adevărat pe piaţa autohtonă. S-ar putea spune acest lucru dacă am avea măcar peste 50.000 de turişti străini aduşi anual în staţiunile ori oraşele turistice româneşti. Nu este cazul.
\r\nDin informaţiile pe care le deţinem, în realitate TUI şi ITS au anunţat că vor scoate ofertele româneşti din Cataloagele pe care le pregătesc pentru sezonul 2013. Motivul? Nu au ceva cu staţiunile româneşti, ci pentru că Ministerul... şi al Turismului, nu şi-a respectat angajamentele şi obligaţiile contractuale semnate de Elena Udrea. E vorba de un „mizilic”, o plată restantă în valoare de 287.500 de euro. Suma acoperă diverse prestaţii ale germanilor, printre altele, publicarea unor reclame de promovare a turismului românesc în Cataloagele ofertate pentru acest an. Scurt şi la obiect.\r\nCiprian Popescu, reprezentantul TUI Incoming România spune că există o serie de tensiuni în viaţa economică românească care au condus la deteriorarea imaginii noastre în străinătate. El explică situaţia astfel: “E adevărat că touroperatorii germani şi-au exprimat nemulţumirea faţă de neseriozitatea Ministerului. E vorba de un şir de promisiuni făcute în ultimii ani. În toamna anului trecut s-au promis investiţii în promovarea României în Germania în valoarea de 3 milioane de euro pentru următorii doi ani. Nu s-a făcut încă nimic. Asta nu marchează însă o retragere de pe piaţa românească aşa cum a anunţat o agenţie de ştiri autohtonă. Trebuie să mai precizeze că prin TUI şi ITS, au sosit pe litoralul românesc în această vară ceva mai mult de 2.000 de turişti străini, iar pe toate destinaţiile circa 20.000. Deci nu e vorba de 2.000 în întreaga Românie, cifră manipulată jurnalistic. Observ că frunza Carpaţilor a fost mult mai atragătoare decât plaja Mării Negre. TUI nu se retrage din România, dimpotrivă, îşi extinde prezenţa prin asocierea cu grupul Eurolines din care acum şi Danubius face parte; Dertour, parte din grupul REWE, rămâne în continuare prezent şi pe incoming. La fel şi FTI. Acestea sunt certitudini, care pot căpăta mai mult sau mai puţină substanţă, funcţie de strategia adoptată de MDRT privind promovarea externă, la care se lucrează acum”.\r\nÎn toată această poveste, cu dus şi întors, cel căzut la mijloc este secretarul de stat pentru turism, Cristian Bărhălescu. Recent instalat el a încercat să scoată din foc castanele aruncate de Elena Udrea. El s-a deplasat la Berlin pentru a atenua tensiunile dar mai ales să dea asigurări că angajamentele contractuale MDTR vor fi respectate. Un comunicat al Ministerului încerca să pună batista pe ţambal, dar se pare că turoperatorii germani care vând destinaţii româneşti de turism nu prea agreează acest instrument. „Discuţiile s-au axat, în mod special, pe analiza situaţiei din anii precedenţi cu privire la turiştii germani care au vizitat România. Până la finalul acestui an se va elabora o analiză ce vizează atât numărul vizitatorilor germani cât şi gradul de satisfacţie a acestora. Analiza va sta la baza unor decizii viitoare pentru eficientizarea colaborării cu turoperatorii străini” – se spune în comunicat. Un alt subiect important a fost negocierea modalităţilor de promovare a destinaţiilor turistice din România de către turoperatorii germani în 2013. „Turoperatorii germani nu se vor retrage anul viitor de pe piaţa românească. Am discutat acolo strategiile de marketing şi comunicare pe care le pregătim la nivel de piaţă, dar şi la nivel de agenţi de turism din Germania”, declara Cristian Bărhălescu. În ceea ce priveşte plăţile restante MDRT preciza că „în acest moment se fac demersurile necesare pentru achitarea unor plăţi restante”\r\nPoate se înţelege în sfârşit un lucru la nivel de minister. Germanii nu sunt operatorii români care aşteaptă cu anii, pentru a le face „marea onoare” de a le plăti prestaţiile angajate. Ai comandat, plăteşti! Restul e o chestiune de nuanţe! La închiderea ediţiei aflăm că plata respectivă a fost efectuată, cu scuzele de rigoare. Aşa că balonul de săpun s-a spart definitiv.

\r\nDupă cum anunţa anul trecut Sorin Văduvoiu, unul dintre liderii operatorului Perfect Tour, agenţia şi-a proiectat deschiderea unor birouri în afara României.

ASTA SE DISCUTĂ !\nTUI ŞI ITS reclamă neseriozitatea MDRT\n
„Touroperatorii germani TUI şi ITS se retrag de pe piaţa românească”. Mamă, ce bombă! Anunţată cu surle şi trâmbiţe de ştiriştii obsedaţi de evenimente şoc ştirea e un balon de săpun de proastă calitate. Mai întâi pentru că cei doi operatori nu au revenit cu adevărat pe piaţa autohtonă. S-ar putea spune acest lucru dacă am avea măcar peste 50.000 de turişti străini aduşi anual în staţiunile ori oraşele turistice româneşti. Nu este cazul.
\nDin informaţiile pe care le deţinem, în realitate TUI şi ITS au anunţat că vor scoate ofertele româneşti din Cataloagele pe care le pregătesc pentru sezonul 2013. Motivul? Nu au ceva cu staţiunile româneşti, ci pentru că Ministerul... şi al Turismului, nu şi-a respectat angajamentele şi obligaţiile contractuale semnate de Elena Udrea. E vorba de un „mizilic”, o plată restantă în valoare de 287.500 de euro. Suma acoperă diverse prestaţii ale germanilor, printre altele, publicarea unor reclame de promovare a turismului românesc în Cataloagele ofertate pentru acest an. Scurt şi la obiect.\nCiprian Popescu, reprezentantul TUI Incoming România spune că există o serie de tensiuni în viaţa economică românească care au condus la deteriorarea imaginii noastre în străinătate. El explică situaţia astfel: “E adevărat că touroperatorii germani şi-au exprimat nemulţumirea faţă de neseriozitatea Ministerului. E vorba de un şir de promisiuni făcute în ultimii ani. În toamna anului trecut s-au promis investiţii în promovarea României în Germania în valoarea de 3 milioane de euro pentru următorii doi ani. Nu s-a făcut încă nimic. Asta nu marchează însă o retragere de pe piaţa românească aşa cum a anunţat o agenţie de ştiri autohtonă. Trebuie să mai precizeze că prin TUI şi ITS, au sosit pe litoralul românesc în această vară ceva mai mult de 2.000 de turişti străini, iar pe toate destinaţiile circa 20.000. Deci nu e vorba de 2.000 în întreaga Românie, cifră manipulată jurnalistic. Observ că frunza Carpaţilor a fost mult mai atragătoare decât plaja Mării Negre. TUI nu se retrage din România, dimpotrivă, îşi extinde prezenţa prin asocierea cu grupul Eurolines din care acum şi Danubius face parte; Dertour, parte din grupul REWE, rămâne în continuare prezent şi pe incoming. La fel şi FTI. Acestea sunt certitudini, care pot căpăta mai mult sau mai puţină substanţă, funcţie de strategia adoptată de MDRT privind promovarea externă, la care se lucrează acum”.\nÎn toată această poveste, cu dus şi întors, cel căzut la mijloc este secretarul de stat pentru turism, Cristian Bărhălescu. Recent instalat el a încercat să scoată din foc castanele aruncate de Elena Udrea. El s-a deplasat la Berlin pentru a atenua tensiunile dar mai ales să dea asigurări că angajamentele contractuale MDTR vor fi respectate. Un comunicat al Ministerului încerca să pună batista pe ţambal, dar se pare că turoperatorii germani care vând destinaţii româneşti de turism nu prea agreează acest instrument. „Discuţiile s-au axat, în mod special, pe analiza situaţiei din anii precedenţi cu privire la turiştii germani care au vizitat România. Până la finalul acestui an se va elabora o analiză ce vizează atât numărul vizitatorilor germani cât şi gradul de satisfacţie a acestora. Analiza va sta la baza unor decizii viitoare pentru eficientizarea colaborării cu turoperatorii străini” – se spune în comunicat. Un alt subiect important a fost negocierea modalităţilor de promovare a destinaţiilor turistice din România de către turoperatorii germani în 2013. „Turoperatorii germani nu se vor retrage anul viitor de pe piaţa românească. Am discutat acolo strategiile de marketing şi comunicare pe care le pregătim la nivel de piaţă, dar şi la nivel de agenţi de turism din Germania”, declara Cristian Bărhălescu. În ceea ce priveşte plăţile restante MDRT preciza că „în acest moment se fac demersurile necesare pentru achitarea unor plăţi restante”\nPoate se înţelege în sfârşit un lucru la nivel de minister. Germanii nu sunt operatorii români care aşteaptă cu anii, pentru a le face „marea onoare” de a le plăti prestaţiile angajate. Ai comandat, plăteşti! Restul e o chestiune de nuanţe! La închiderea ediţiei aflăm că plata respectivă a fost efectuată, cu scuzele de rigoare. Aşa că balonul de săpun s-a spart definitiv.

„Maşinile Regelui” pe rutele istoriei\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Carte-rege-1.jpg\" "\\"Carte")
\r\n
Automobilul – o pasiune de peste opt decenii a Majestăţii Sale Regelui Mihai I al României. Pentru a fi conservată în lumea pasionaţilor Curtea Veche Publishing a lansat la Muzeul Naţional de Istorie din Bucureşti volumul „Maşinile Regelui” scris şi întocmit de ASR Principele Radu al României. Lucrarea conţine numeroase imagini inedite din arhiva personală a Casei Regale, însoţite de explicaţii ce depăşesc simplele detalii tehnice. Volumul este unul de colecţie şi un deliciu pentru cunoscători. Apărut în condiţii grafice de excepţie, el prezintă vehiculele de epocă pe care Majestatea Sa le-a condus de-a lungul timpului, dar şi o pasiune mai putin cunoscută, cea pentru avioane.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Carte-rege-2.jpg\" "\\"Carte")
\r\n„Legătura dintre Rege şi maşini este unul dintre cele mai spectaculoase aspecte din biografia Majestăţii Sale. Peste opt decenii de performanţă la volan, de fidelitate şi admiraţie faţă de motoare, de extraordinară dexteritate în domeniul tehnologiei auto. Şi astăzi Regele se urcă la volan cu aceeaşi siguranţă discretă, cu o plăcere sfioasă, cu o robusteţe uşor de remarcat. La 25 octombrie 2011, Regele a inaugurat Muzeul Regal a Automobilului de la Săvârşin.

\r\n\r\nAlbumul de faţă este o… pleaşcă pentru Ministerul… şi al Turismului din ţara noastră. “România” văzută de fotograful Ryker Lomas şi editorul Jim Thompson, ambii membrii marcanţi ai FIJET, din spaţiul canandiano-american, este o lucrare ce resuscitează interesul pentru o ţară care-şi promovează prea puţin patrimoniile spirituale şi arhitecturale pe care le deţine. Prezentat într-o ediţie de lux, albumul de o sută de pagini a fost realizat cu ocazia celei de-a 53-a ediţie a Congresului Internaţional al FIJET, găzduit în 2011, pentru prima dată, de către Bucureşti. Logistica a fost asigurată de mai mulţi membrii al Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET România, care a reuşit să câştige pentru atracţiile turistice naţionale 3 Golden Apple, veritabile Oscaruri pentru promovarea turistică. Ryker, cu o experienţă de peste 30 de ani în domeniul fotografiei comerciale, reinventează cu camera foto, imagini ale unor destinaţii din Bucureşti, până la Suceava, de la Sibiu până la Bacău, de la Tihuţa până la Tulcea. Jim, cu o experienţă similară în industria printului (travel, sport şi tehnologie), se arată entuziasmat de tradiţiile descoperite în Bucovina, Mărginimea Sibiului ori de stilurile arhitectonice întânite de la Muzeul Cotroceni, până la Cetăţile Medievale ori Mănăstirile din Moldova. Cartea este mai mult decât o invitaţie pentru a călători spre ţara noastră. Este o pledoarie pentru a descoperi ceea ce există în viaţa reală. Nu în muzee.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/carte-romania-1.jpg\" "\\"carte")
Ce-ar face Sherlock Holmes într-o călătorie?
\r\nUnii zâmbesc cu superioritate când văd un client, mai modest îmbrăcat, trecând pragul unui hotel, restaurant, cafenea ori bar. Ei bine cel mai sănătos lucru este să vă temperaţi atitudinea. Deseori suntem martorii unor grimase „tehnice” exprimate de exponenţi ai zonei HORECA, numai că în spatele lor lucrează evaluatorii care nu sunt alţii decât… clienţi sub acoperire ori misterioşi. Cum era şi normal s-a construit şi o bibliografie demnă de un Sherlok Holmes, travestit în călător. Din cărţile ce o alcătuiesc aflăm până la detaliu tot ce trebuie să înveţi pentru a fi un bun client sub acoperire. Este o meserie? Cu siguranţă! De evaluările acestora depind de foarte multe ori repoziţionările resurselor umane şi mai ales recalibrarea calităţii serviciilor în structura de management. Despre aceste activităţi puteţi afla din Ghidul de Instruire „Mystery Sopper” coordonată de Cosmina Voichiţa Meseşan, care la rândul său este general manager la VBS şi specialist în acest domeniu. Prima ediţie a lucrării, de circa 50 de pagini, reuneşte mai multe sinteze şi cercetări de marketing internaţionale. Ele sunt inspirate de lucrarea „The Mystery Shopper’s Manual” scrisă de Cathy Stucker, şi continuă cu mai multe scenarii concrete dezvoltate pe mapamond în hoteluri de 4 şi 5 stele. Această lume discretă în comportamentul ei, contribuie şi dă savoare vacanţelor noastre. De consumat, pe post de... marketing-aspirină, de către managerii din industria turistică.

Automobilul – o pasiune de peste opt decenii a Majestăţii Sale Regelui Mihai I al României. Pentru a fi conservată în lumea pasionaţilor Curtea Veche Publishing a lansat la Muzeul Naţional de Istorie din Bucureşti volumul „Maşinile Regelui” scris şi întocmit de ASR Principele Radu al României. Lucrarea conţine numeroase imagini inedite din arhiva personală a Casei Regale, însoţite de explicaţii ce depăşesc simplele detalii tehnice. Volumul este unul de colecţie şi un deliciu pentru cunoscători. Apărut în condiţii grafice de excepţie, el prezintă vehiculele de epocă pe care Majestatea Sa le-a condus de-a lungul timpului, dar şi o pasiune mai putin cunoscută, cea pentru avioane.\n\n„Legătura dintre Rege şi maşini este unul dintre cele mai spectaculoase aspecte din biografia Majestăţii Sale. Peste opt decenii de performanţă la volan, de fidelitate şi admiraţie faţă de motoare, de extraordinară dexteritate în domeniul tehnologiei auto. Şi astăzi Regele se urcă la volan cu aceeaşi siguranţă discretă, cu o plăcere sfioasă, cu o robusteţe uşor de remarcat. La 25 octombrie 2011, Regele a inaugurat Muzeul Regal a Automobilului de la Săvârşin. Dacă garajul regal de la Săvârşin este o ctitorie a dragostei Majestăţii Sale pentru maşini, acest volum doreşte să fie o ilustrare a relaţiei dintre Rege şi automobile şi avioane” – sublinia, printre altele, în momentul lansării albumului Principele Radu de România.\n\nDoi americani asediaţi de… tradiţii
\nAlbumul de faţă este o… pleaşcă pentru Ministerul… şi al Turismului din ţara noastră. “România” văzută de fotograful Ryker Lomas şi editorul Jim Thompson, ambii membrii marcanţi ai FIJET, din spaţiul canandiano-american, este o lucrare ce resuscitează interesul pentru o ţară care-şi promovează prea puţin patrimoniile spirituale şi arhitecturale pe care le deţine. Prezentat într-o ediţie de lux, albumul de o sută de pagini a fost realizat cu ocazia celei de-a 53-a ediţie a Congresului Internaţional al FIJET, găzduit în 2011, pentru prima dată, de către Bucureşti. Logistica a fost asigurată de mai mulţi membrii al Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET România, care a reuşit să câştige pentru atracţiile turistice naţionale 3 Golden Apple, veritabile Oscaruri pentru promovarea turistică. Ryker, cu o experienţă de peste 30 de ani în domeniul fotografiei comerciale, reinventează cu camera foto, imagini ale unor destinaţii din Bucureşti, până la Suceava, de la Sibiu până la Bacău, de la Tihuţa până la Tulcea. Jim, cu o experienţă similară în industria printului (travel, sport şi tehnologie), se arată entuziasmat de tradiţiile descoperite în Bucovina, Mărginimea Sibiului ori de stilurile arhitectonice întânite de la Muzeul Cotroceni, până la Cetăţile Medievale ori Mănăstirile din Moldova. Cartea este mai mult decât o invitaţie pentru a călători spre ţara noastră. Este o pledoarie pentru a descoperi ceea ce există în viaţa reală. Nu în muzee.
\n \nCe-ar face Sherlock Holmes într-o călătorie?
\nUnii zâmbesc cu superioritate când văd un client, mai modest îmbrăcat, trecând pragul unui hotel, restaurant, cafenea ori bar. Ei bine cel mai sănătos lucru este să vă temperaţi atitudinea.

Din cărţile ce o alcătuiesc aflăm până la detaliu tot ce trebuie să înveţi pentru a fi un bun client sub acoperire. Este o meserie? Cu siguranţă!

Prima ediţie a lucrării, de circa 50 de pagini, reuneşte mai multe sinteze şi cercetări de marketing internaţionale. Ele sunt inspirate de lucrarea „The Mystery Shopper’s Manual” scrisă de Cathy Stucker, şi continuă cu mai multe scenarii concrete dezvoltate pe mapamond în hoteluri de 4 şi 5 stele. Această lume discretă în comportamentul ei, contribuie şi dă savoare vacanţelor noastre. De consumat, pe post de... marketing-aspirină, de către managerii din industria turistică.

Despre el se scrie că este organizat într-o clădire ce datează de la începutul secolului al XX-lea ce poartă semnătura arhitectului Nicolae Ghica-Budeşti. Muzeul expune colecţii organizate de mobilier, ustensile agricole, costume populare, crucifixe, tapiserii, textile şi o colecţie de icoane foarte frumoase. Majoritatea ilustrează stilul de viaţă al comunităţii rurale româneşti.

Astfel somelierii de pe mapamond ar urma să studieze în ţara noastră, la final urmând să obţină certificarea de specialitate. Întreaga infrastructură a proiectului este finalizată la nivelul A.S.I., iar la nivel naţional, vor fi armonizate detaliile de organizare. În urma obţinerii, prin examen, a titlului de „Somelier certificat A.S.I.“, profesioniştii atestaţi vor putea practica această meserie oriunde în cele 54 de ţări membre ale ASI dar şi în ţări ne-membre, dar afiliate la program.\r\n\r\n_____________________________________________________________\r\n\r\n MEŞTERUL MANOLE A AJUNS LA REGIO\r\n\r\nPrimăria municipiului Curtea de Argeş a implementat pe parcursul unui an un proiect interesant.

În cadrul programului au fost promovate mai multe monumente cultural-istorice din oraş, a fost creat un website turistic, s-a elaborat o harta interactivă cu o descriere a obiectivelor, a traseelor turistice etc. Monumentele, parte din acest proiect, sunt Mănăstirea Argeşului, Fântăna lui Manole, Curtea şi Biserica Domnească, pictura interioară din cadrul Bisericii Domneşti, Biserica Sân Nicoară, Muzeul Municipal şi Casa Norocea.\r\n\r\n_____________________________________________________________\r\n\r\n CIOCOLATA MEA\r\n\r\nMastermind Communications organizează în perioada 27 septembrie – 23 noiembrie 2012 concursul ”Cum vreau să fie ciocolata mea?”.

Proiectul include competiţia de desene, colaje, sculpturi şi compuneri şi are ca scop promovarea creativităţii şi dezvoltarea imaginaţiei copiilor cu privire la crearea unei ciocolate ideale. Premiul principal constă în vizitarea Fabricii de ciocolată Kandia Dulce S.A. din Bucureşti pentru elevii din 10 clase câştigătoare.

La Conacul Lipatti de la Fundăţeanca se desfăşoară între 2 octombrie-14 noiembrie “Serile Lipatti”. Programul include 14 concerte camerale. Evenimentul, finanţat de Administraţia Fondului Cultural Naţional are ca partener principal C.J. Argeş. Desfăşurarea concertelor este săptămânală, în serile de marţi şi miercuri: octombrie 2-3; 9-10; 16-17; 23-24; 30-31 iar noiembrie 6-7; 13-14. Printre artiştii care au evoluat sau vor evolua la acest eveniment se numără pianiştii Remus Manoleanu, Mădălina Paşol Andrei Licareţ, violonişti ca Florin Croitoru şi Florin Ionescu-Galaţi, soprana Bianca Manoleanu etc. Asociaţia Art à la carte şi-a propus să promoveze un management cultural performant pentru stimularea competiţiei în domeniul artistic.\r\n_____________________________________________________________\r\n\r\n„E DREPTUL TĂU! ACŢIONEAZĂ!” \r\n\r\nJohn Dalli, Comisarul european pentru Sănătate şi Consumatori, a lansat Campania Uniunii Europene pentru informarea consumatorilor – „E dreptul tău! Acţionează!”, pentru a informa consumatorii din România cu privire la drepturile lor în ţară dar şi în statele membre. “Legislaţia comunitară stabileşte drepturi pentru consumatori, dar crearea cadrului legal este doar primul pas spre împuternicirea consumatorilor” – a transmis într-un mesaj video Dalli. Eurobarometrul realizat de Uniunea Europeană în România arată că, dintre consumatorii români cu vârste cuprinse între 24 şi 39 de ani, 79% doresc să afle mai multe informaţii despre drepturile lor în situaţia în care nu le place un produs comandat online, 78% dintre ei, atunci când plăţile pentru creditul contractat pentru a-şi achiziţiona un autoturism sau un computer ascunde taxe şi costuri suplimentare, iar 75% reclamă cazuri în care pachetul de călătorie se deosebeşte de cel descris în broşură. Agenţiile de turism, furnizorii de Internet şi companiile de teleshopping nu stau nici ele mai bine: 34% dintre cei chestionaţi au afirmat că ele nu respecta drepturile consumatorilor, iar 27% dintre ei împărtaşesc aceeaşi opinie şi în legătură cu telefonia fixă şi mobilă.\r\nCampania e susţinută în ţara noastră de un parteneriat între Asociaţia Naţională pentru Protecţia Consumatorilor şi Promovarea Programelor şi Strategiilor, respectiv Asociaţia pentru Protecţia Consumatorilor din România. Activităţile de informare sunt promovate prin o campanie de publicitate TV, print şi online, pe website-ul official - www.consumatoreuropean.ro, prin programe de dezbateri comunitare etc.','TRASFĂGĂRĂŞANUL e pe primul în top, EVENIMENTE nr.103','','publish','open','open','','trasfagarasanul-e-pe-primul-in-top-evenimente-nr-103','','','2012-12-03 22:25:24','2012-12-03 20:25:24','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=1637',0,'post','',0),(1638,1,'2012-12-03 22:22:49','2012-12-03 20:22:49','','Ev New York times 1','','inherit','open','open','','ev-new-york-times-1','','','2012-12-03 22:22:49','2012-12-03 20:22:49','',1637,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Ev-New-York-times-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1639,1,'2012-12-03 22:23:48','2012-12-03 20:23:48','','ASI Somelier 1','','inherit','open','open','','asi-somelier-1','','','2012-12-03 22:23:48','2012-12-03 20:23:48','',1637,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/ASI-Somelier-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(1640,1,'2012-12-03 22:24:13','2012-12-03 20:24:13','TRASFĂGĂRĂŞANUL e pe primul în top\n\nŞtiţi care sunt cele mai frumoase şosele din lume?

ACŢIONEAZĂ!” \n\nJohn Dalli, Comisarul european pentru Sănătate şi Consumatori, a lansat Campania Uniunii Europene pentru informarea consumatorilor – „E dreptul tău! Acţionează!”, pentru a informa consumatorii din România cu privire la drepturile lor în ţară dar şi în statele membre. “Legislaţia comunitară stabileşte drepturi pentru consumatori, dar crearea cadrului legal este doar primul pas spre împuternicirea consumatorilor” – a transmis într-un mesaj video Dalli. Eurobarometrul realizat de Uniunea Europeană în România arată că, dintre consumatorii români cu vârste cuprinse între 24 şi 39 de ani, 79% doresc să afle mai multe informaţii despre drepturile lor în situaţia în care nu le place un produs comandat online, 78% dintre ei, atunci când plăţile pentru creditul contractat pentru a-şi achiziţiona un autoturism sau un computer ascunde taxe şi costuri suplimentare, iar 75% reclamă cazuri în care pachetul de călătorie se deosebeşte de cel descris în broşură. Agenţiile de turism, furnizorii de Internet şi companiile de teleshopping nu stau nici ele mai bine: 34% dintre cei chestionaţi au afirmat că ele nu respecta drepturile consumatorilor, iar 27% dintre ei împărtaşesc aceeaşi opinie şi în legătură cu telefonia fixă şi mobilă.\nCampania e susţinută în ţara noastră de un parteneriat între Asociaţia Naţională pentru Protecţia Consumatorilor şi Promovarea Programelor şi Strategiilor, respectiv Asociaţia pentru Protecţia Consumatorilor din România. Activităţile de informare sunt promovate prin o campanie de publicitate TV, print şi online, pe website-ul official - www.consumatoreuropean.ro, prin programe de dezbateri comunitare etc.','TRASFĂGĂRĂŞANUL e pe primul în top, EVENIMENTE nr.103','','inherit','open','open','','1637-revision','','','2012-12-03 22:24:13','2012-12-03 20:24:13','',1637,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2012/12/03/1637-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(1642,1,'2012-12-03 22:33:02','2012-12-03 20:33:02','AMERICANII PLANTEAZĂ INVESTIŢII LA ORADEA

Luna trecută Hotelul Radisson Blu, ce face parte din Rezidor Group, a desfăşurat mai multe acţiuni de responsabilitate socială, printre care şi plantarea de copaci. Pentru anul acesta, s-a optat pentru plantarea de tei (Tilia), acţiune ce s-a desfăşurat în Parcul Izvor din Capitală. Proiectul ecologic “Responsible Business”, a câştigat în această rundă un nou partener. E vorba de compania Concept Hotels. Afacerea responsabilă constă în creşterea eforturilor companiei faţă de mediul înconjurător. În fiecare an, în septembrie, hotelurile Rezidor din întreaga Europă, Orientul Mijlociu şi Africa organizează activităţi sociale şi de mediu pentru a strânge fonduri în sprijinul organizaţiei de caritate Rezidor “World Childhood Foundation”, precum şi în susţinerea unor proiecte de caritate.\r\nDe asemenea Radisson Blu din Bucureşti a anunţat şi lansarea în colaborare cu Bit-Soft Group a conceptului Radisson Blu Lifestyle, un nou program ce combină avantajele unei platforme de social media cu cele ale programului de fidelizare. Radisson Blu Lifestyle este noua platformă de comunicare pentru conceptele de Food & Beverages ale complexului. În plus a fost promovată şi o aplicatie smartphone a platformei, disponibila pe iOS si Android.

Până unde îţi permite muntele!”
\r\nÎn urmă cu un deceniu şi jumătate pe stâlpii dintre Piaţa Romană şi Piaţa Universităţii, unii trecători se opreau şi citeau, oferta unor tineri care îi invitau să călătorească prin ţară cu “Christian Adventure”. Pe foile A4, erau descrise diverse programe montane, iar sigla mesajului publicitar era Sfinxul din Bucegi. Pe atunci numele lui Cristian Pandel era cunoscut doar într-un cerc de prieteni. Interlocutorul meu rememorează vremurile astfel: “Ceea ce aminteşti se întâmpla prin 1997 când împreuna cu alţi entuziaşti am descoperit muntele. Am început prin înfiinţarea unui Club Montan. Am devenit, ca să spun aşa, montaniarzi care trăiau sentimentul de libertate pe care ţi-l dă fiecare loc nou în care ajungi şi bucuria evadării din agitaţia urbană. Trei ani mai târziu am înfiinţat Şcoala de ghizi “Christian Adventure” . Pot spune că Şcoala a avut succes iar noi speram că am reuşit să promovăm un concept. Ne gândeam, nu încă la nivel de business, să facem pasul următor. Să înfiinţăm o agenţie care să ne lege de începuturi. Aşa s-a născut în 1997 agenţia de turism Christian Tour.” Logo-ul noului brand a rămas Sfinxul din Bucegi.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Cristian-pandel.jpg\" "\\"Cristian")
![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Christian-tour-stand.jpg\" "\\"Christian")
\r\n-Sincer să vă spun când am început visam poate să atingem o ţintă a performanţei. Dar nicidecum nu ne gândeam că voi ajunge la nivelul la care suntem în 2012. La această oră avem vânzări de peste 33,5 milioane de euro iar la sfârşitul anului ne aşteptăm să depăşim 35 de milioane. Dacă mă gândesc că în 2006, aveam un rulaj de circa 2 milioane de euro, iar în 2012, am înregistrat 19 milioane de euro, atunci veţi înţelege în ce staţie am ajuns. Noi am muncit foarte mult. Creşterea a fost organică de când am început. În fiecare an am crescut. Un salt mare a fost simţit de abia după 10 ani. 2007 a fost primul nostru an de boom turistic. Pe piaţa românească sunt în jur de 100 de agenţii de turism medii (cu cifra de afaceri cuprinsă între 3 şi 7-8 milioane de euro) care cresc şi doresc să devină mari, iar altele doresc să rămână pe poziţiile lor de acum, fără a dori o dezvoltare, ci doar o consolidare. Noi ne-am poziţionat în Topul primei categorii. Iar la ora actuală estimez că am urcat în clasamentul primilor 3 ca vânzări de vacanţe şi pe primul loc la numărul turiştilor pe care îi serveşte Christian Tour.
\r\n- Fără îndoială că noul venit nu a fost primit cu aplauze. Acum, după 15 ani de turism cum apreciezi că a fost climatul în care te-ai dezvoltat? Prietenos, favorabil, ostil, vitreg ?
\r\n- La început nimeni nu ne-a luat în serios. Acum când privesc în urmă gândesc că a fost un avantaj. Christian Tour nu a reprezentat pentru nimeni o ameninţare, pe piaţa de travel, până în urmă cu 10 ani. Nu eram membrii ANAT, nu participam la târguri de turism, eram o agenţie foarte mică. Totuşi începeam să avem vizibilitate, prin afişele trase la xerox pe care le lipeam pe stâlpii din zona centrală a Bucureştiului. Eu luam de la alte agenţi şi vindeam bilete pe litoralul românesc. Cum să mă considere pe atunci, altfel decât un aliat?
\r\n- A fost stimulator climatul economic în care ţi-ai construit afacerea?\r\n- După 2007, a apărut un vid în turism. De ce spun asta? Pentru că o parte din agenţiile cu vechime şi patronii lor au fost cuprinşi de febra imobiliarelor. Aveau bani şi au făcut şi mai mulţi bani. Dar au neglijat turismul unde, este drept, profitul era infim comparativ cu investiţiile imobiliare. Eu nu aveam bani. N-am câştigat cine ştie ce pâna în 2008-2009. A fost o febră foarte mare. Terenuri, construcţii, hoteluri etc. Şi atunci au lăsat locul liber pe piaţa turismului. Puţini mai făceau turism pe genunchi, cum s-ar spune. Grupuri, autocare, înscrieri, produse, pachete, într-un cuvânt multă muncă, după care mulţumeai dacă obţineai un mic profit de 3-5%. Gândiţi-vă că dacă aveam noroc scoteam un profit la sfârşitul anului de circa 100.000 de euro, în timp ce în imobiliare se scoteau 2-3 milioane pe an. Unii au câştigat, alţii au pierdut, că aşa e în afaceri. Atunci a apărut un culoar pentru noi. În 2008 am făcut primele zboruri charter. Mi-am asumat un mare risc, pentru că în spatele meu nu era nimeni, iar dacă ar fi mers prost nu aş fi avut cu ce să plătesc. Nu aveam ce să vând decât viaţa mea. E drept între 2007-2008 am riscat foarte mult. Dar în 2008 am cumpărat primele 4 autocare, care au reprezentat prima gură de oxigen la Christian Tour. E o poveste mai veche asta cu riscul. În mod sigur, în genele mele s-a imprimat experienţa câştigată pe munte pe vremea când făceam alpinism şi programe pline de adrenalină. Am crescut cu spiritul muntelui, cu aceleaşi principii. Urci, respiri, creezi, vinzi, încasezi, urci, uneori te sufoci, nu ai mască de oxigen la îndemână, te adaptezi concurenţei, creezi, vinzi, încasezi, urci! Până unde îţi permite muntele. Întrebarea este până unde poţi să urci? Climat ostil, bariere, au fost destule, dar au apărut în momentul în care am început să contăm pe piaţa turistică românească.
\r\n- Ai început cu activităţi de turism intern, care înţeleg ţi-au procurat mari satisfacţii la acea vreme. Mi se pare firesc să te întreb de ce Christian Tour este un operator de outgoing şi nu de turism intern ori incoming. S-a dovedit mai profitabil turismul extern?
\r\n- Da! Întotdeauna se câştigă mai mulţi bani din turismul extern. Dacă îl faci cu pricepere şi aplicaţie. În momentul în care lucram turism intern, cu ani în urmă, era foarte greu de făcut. Nu vorbesc de litoral că acolo au rămas destul de mulţi profesionişti. Ci de staţiunile montane şi balneare. E drept că în ultimii ani lucrurile s-au mai schimbat. în bine vorbesc. De aceea noi la Christian Tour vom dezvolta în 2013 o Divizie proprie de turism intern. Şi, aşa cum suntem ambiţioşi, vom încerca să ajungem în Top 3.\r\n- Ai declarat de mai multe ori că în topul preferinţelor tale locul 1 este ocupat pe viaţă de Grecia, în special de Insulele greceşti. De cele mai multe ori ai nominalizat Rhodos, Mikonos, Creta, Santorini ori, după cum înţeleg, vedeta ultimilor ani Zakynthos. Cum şi când a început povestea de dragoste cu Elada?
\r\n- În 2003 am început să facem Grecia. Aveam 11 camere pe un hotel din Paralia Katerini. În scurt timp am ajuns să vindem un autocar pe săptămână, împreună cu alte agenţii partenere. Tot atunci am întâlnit un grec care avea să devină cel mai bun prieten al meu, naşul de cununie şi al copiilor mei. Stratos Halkidis, deţinea un hotel în Olimpic Beach şi tot ce am dezvoltat pe Grecia am învăţat de la el. Are 46 de ani şi 25 de ani experienţă în turism. Stratos m-a sprijinit şi acoperit de multe ori. Aşa am reuşit să merg înainte. Acum vă pot spune şi un secret. E mult mai uşor să lucrezi cu grecii. Dacă eşti serios, relaţia umană este foarte importantă, iar afacerile se fac faţă în faţă, stai la masă vorbeşti, bei Uzo, mănânci, dansezi, te simţi bine, şi faci afaceri. Sunt discreţi, umani, calzi, iar relaţia sufletească se construieşte mai uşor atunci când faci afaceri cu grecii. Eu aşa i-am simţit pe cei cu care lucrez.
\r\n- În urmă cu un an ai lansat un brand sută la sută românesc Senior Voyage cu care ai vizat segmentul turistic de vârstă +55 de ani !
\r\n- După câte ştiţi aveam o experienţă anterioară cu Senioren +55. Era un program spaniol susţinut de UE şi guvernul Catalan. La început, să fiu tot sincer, nu am avut încredere că putem vinde aşa ceva. Dar în primul an am trimis circa 7-8.000 de seniori români în Spania. Piaţa a crescut, ulterior, până pe la 10.000 pe an. Programul ne-a ajutat foarte mult pe perioada iernii, când nu intră aproape nimeni în agenţiile de turism. Lucram cu un preţ bun, cu hoteluri de 4 stele, pensiune completă şi toată lumea avea de lucru. Un aspect important. Asta ne-a inspirat să ne facem propriile programe Senior Voyage, ce se adresează aceluiaşi segment. Însă sunt mai bine construite, acoperă o arie mai mare de ţări, şi oferă turiştilor români mai multe satisfacţii. Senior Voyage ne ajută, pe lângă comisionul încasat, să facem volum, şi asta e una dintre ţintele importante la Christian Tour.
\r\n- Fireşte, clienţii Christian Tour au în faţă doar spectacolul vacanţelor, şi aplaudă sau nu actorii din rolurile principale. Care sunt specialiştii, “maşiniştii”, tehnicienii din spatele cortinei, care contribuie la fel de mult la succesul programelor turistice pe care le oferiţi? Au şi un nume?
\r\n- Nu suntem FC Barcelona. Suntem o echipă fără vedete, dar capabilă de performanţă. O echipă fără stranieri. Cam 90% din cei cu care lucrez au crescut şi s-au format aici.
\r\n- În toţi aceşti ani v-a preocupat să inovaţi în permanenţă. Ultima noutate lansată este Travel Concept Store, un magazin de vacanţe. De asemenea cu câteva săptămâni în urmă aţi anunţat un parteneriat de travel care va schimba datele pe piaţa jucătorilor din turism...\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Christian-Tour-Group.jpg\" "\\"Christian")

Avem o gândire mai complexă. În ceea ce priveşte parteneriatul anunţat ne-am pus pe lucru deja. Am creat un touroperator prin „sudarea” a patru agenţii de turism.

Fiecare touroperator îşi păstrează identitatea comercială dar se va specializa pe următoarele segmente – turism de 5 stele şi lux, turism de 4 stele, turism low cost (2 şi 3 stele), respectiv turism intern.

Până unde îţi permite muntele!”
\nÎn urmă cu un deceniu şi jumătate pe stâlpii dintre Piaţa Romană şi Piaţa Universităţii, unii trecători se opreau şi citeau, oferta unor tineri care îi invitau să călătorească prin ţară cu “Christian Adventure”. Pe foile A4, erau descrise diverse programe montane, iar sigla mesajului publicitar era Sfinxul din Bucegi. Pe atunci numele lui Cristian Pandel era cunoscut doar într-un cerc de prieteni. Interlocutorul meu rememorează vremurile astfel: “Ceea ce aminteşti se întâmpla prin 1997 când împreuna cu alţi entuziaşti am descoperit muntele. Am început prin înfiinţarea unui Club Montan. Am devenit, ca să spun aşa, montaniarzi care trăiau sentimentul de libertate pe care ţi-l dă fiecare loc nou în care ajungi şi bucuria evadării din agitaţia urbană. Trei ani mai târziu am înfiinţat Şcoala de ghizi “Christian Adventure” . Pot spune că Şcoala a avut succes iar noi speram că am reuşit să promovăm un concept. Ne gândeam, nu încă la nivel de business, să facem pasul următor. Să înfiinţăm o agenţie care să ne lege de începuturi. Aşa s-a născut în 1997 agenţia de turism Christian Tour.” Logo-ul noului brand a rămas Sfinxul din Bucegi.\n\n\nPrimul sediu al firmei (o investiţie de 300 de euro) a fost într-un demisol de lângă Facultatea de Drept. O locaţie sentimentală, deoarece el este absolvent al acestei instituţii de învăţământ. De atunci Christian Tour, se va confunda cu numele managerului său Cristian Pandel. Mesajele de vacanţă s-au schimbat rapid atât sub aspectul conţinutului cât şi al ariei geografice pe care o acopereau. Atracţiile montane din România au fost înlocuite cu cele din Grecia, Spania, Turcia, Bulgaria, Italia, Cipru, Franţa şi, mai recent China. Rucsacul din aventurile montane a rămas într-un colţ fiind înlocuit de planuri de afaceri şi mai ales de dorinţa de a construi un business original şi durabil. La început a oferit servicii pentru câteva sute de turişti. Azi prin Christian Tour circulă, în Europa în principal, peste 100.000 de români.\nLa 36 de ani Pandel e propietarul agenţiei Christian Tour.\n\n- Cum s-ar spune ai trecut din grupa mică, în care jucai ca student şi ca tânăr absolvent, în liga mare unde stai la masa touroperatorilor care contează pe piaţa românească. Te aşteptai să ajungi mai devreme la această performanţă ?\n
-Sincer să vă spun când am început visam poate să atingem o ţintă a performanţei. Dar nicidecum nu ne gândeam că voi ajunge la nivelul la care suntem în 2012. La această oră avem vânzări de peste 33,5 milioane de euro iar la sfârşitul anului ne aşteptăm să depăşim 35 de milioane. Dacă mă gândesc că în 2006, aveam un rulaj de circa 2 milioane de euro, iar în 2012, am înregistrat 19 milioane de euro, atunci veţi înţelege în ce staţie am ajuns. Noi am muncit foarte mult. Creşterea a fost organică de când am început. În fiecare an am crescut. Un salt mare a fost simţit de abia după 10 ani. 2007 a fost primul nostru an de boom turistic. Pe piaţa românească sunt în jur de 100 de agenţii de turism medii (cu cifra de afaceri cuprinsă între 3 şi 7-8 milioane de euro) care cresc şi doresc să devină mari, iar altele doresc să rămână pe poziţiile lor de acum, fără a dori o dezvoltare, ci doar o consolidare. Noi ne-am poziţionat în Topul primei categorii. Iar la ora actuală estimez că am urcat în clasamentul primilor 3 ca vânzări de vacanţe şi pe primul loc la numărul turiştilor pe care îi serveşte Christian Tour.
\n- Fără îndoială că noul venit nu a fost primit cu aplauze. Acum, după 15 ani de turism cum apreciezi că a fost climatul în care te-ai dezvoltat? Prietenos, favorabil, ostil, vitreg ?
\n- La început nimeni nu ne-a luat în serios. Acum când privesc în urmă gândesc că a fost un avantaj. Christian Tour nu a reprezentat pentru nimeni o ameninţare, pe piaţa de travel, până în urmă cu 10 ani. Nu eram membrii ANAT, nu participam la târguri de turism, eram o agenţie foarte mică. Totuşi începeam să avem vizibilitate, prin afişele trase la xerox pe care le lipeam pe stâlpii din zona centrală a Bucureştiului. Eu luam de la alte agenţi şi vindeam bilete pe litoralul românesc. Cum să mă considere pe atunci, altfel decât un aliat?
\n- A fost stimulator climatul economic în care ţi-ai construit afacerea?\n- După 2007, a apărut un vid în turism. De ce spun asta? Pentru că o parte din agenţiile cu vechime şi patronii lor au fost cuprinşi de febra imobiliarelor. Aveau bani şi au făcut şi mai mulţi bani. Dar au neglijat turismul unde, este drept, profitul era infim comparativ cu investiţiile imobiliare. Eu nu aveam bani. N-am câştigat cine ştie ce pâna în 2008-2009. A fost o febră foarte mare. Terenuri, construcţii, hoteluri etc. Şi atunci au lăsat locul liber pe piaţa turismului. Puţini mai făceau turism pe genunchi, cum s-ar spune. Grupuri, autocare, înscrieri, produse, pachete, într-un cuvânt multă muncă, după care mulţumeai dacă obţineai un mic profit de 3-5%. Gândiţi-vă că dacă aveam noroc scoteam un profit la sfârşitul anului de circa 100.000 de euro, în timp ce în imobiliare se scoteau 2-3 milioane pe an. Unii au câştigat, alţii au pierdut, că aşa e în afaceri. Atunci a apărut un culoar pentru noi. În 2008 am făcut primele zboruri charter. Mi-am asumat un mare risc, pentru că în spatele meu nu era nimeni, iar dacă ar fi mers prost nu aş fi avut cu ce să plătesc. Nu aveam ce să vând decât viaţa mea. E drept între 2007-2008 am riscat foarte mult. Dar în 2008 am cumpărat primele 4 autocare, care au reprezentat prima gură de oxigen la Christian Tour. E o poveste mai veche asta cu riscul. În mod sigur, în genele mele s-a imprimat experienţa câştigată pe munte pe vremea când făceam alpinism şi programe pline de adrenalină. Am crescut cu spiritul muntelui, cu aceleaşi principii. Urci, respiri, creezi, vinzi, încasezi, urci, uneori te sufoci, nu ai mască de oxigen la îndemână, te adaptezi concurenţei, creezi, vinzi, încasezi, urci! Până unde îţi permite muntele. Întrebarea este până unde poţi să urci? Climat ostil, bariere, au fost destule, dar au apărut în momentul în care am început să contăm pe piaţa turistică românească.
\n- Ai început cu activităţi de turism intern, care înţeleg ţi-au procurat mari satisfacţii la acea vreme. Mi se pare firesc să te întreb de ce Christian Tour este un operator de outgoing şi nu de turism intern ori incoming. S-a dovedit mai profitabil turismul extern?\n\n- Da!

Dacă eşti serios, relaţia umană este foarte importantă, iar afacerile se fac faţă în faţă, stai la masă vorbeşti, bei Uzo, mănânci, dansezi, te simţi bine, şi faci afaceri.

\n- În urmă cu un an ai lansat un brand sută la sută românesc Senior Voyage cu care ai vizat segmentul turistic de vârstă +55 de ani !
\n- După câte ştiţi aveam o experienţă anterioară cu Senioren +55. Era un program spaniol susţinut de UE şi guvernul Catalan. La început, să fiu tot sincer, nu am avut încredere că putem vinde aşa ceva. Dar în primul an am trimis circa 7-8.000 de seniori români în Spania. Piaţa a crescut, ulterior, până pe la 10.000 pe an. Programul ne-a ajutat foarte mult pe perioada iernii, când nu intră aproape nimeni în agenţiile de turism. Lucram cu un preţ bun, cu hoteluri de 4 stele, pensiune completă şi toată lumea avea de lucru. Un aspect important. Asta ne-a inspirat să ne facem propriile programe Senior Voyage, ce se adresează aceluiaşi segment. Însă sunt mai bine construite, acoperă o arie mai mare de ţări, şi oferă turiştilor români mai multe satisfacţii. Senior Voyage ne ajută, pe lângă comisionul încasat, să facem volum, şi asta e una dintre ţintele importante la Christian Tour.
\n- Fireşte, clienţii Christian Tour au în faţă doar spectacolul vacanţelor, şi aplaudă sau nu actorii din rolurile principale. Care sunt specialiştii, “maşiniştii”, tehnicienii din spatele cortinei, care contribuie la fel de mult la succesul programelor turistice pe care le oferiţi? Au şi un nume?
\n- Nu suntem FC Barcelona. Suntem o echipă fără vedete, dar capabilă de performanţă. O echipă fără stranieri. Cam 90% din cei cu care lucrez au crescut şi s-au format aici.
\n- În toţi aceşti ani v-a preocupat să inovaţi în permanenţă. Ultima noutate lansată este Travel Concept Store, un magazin de vacanţe. De asemenea cu câteva săptămâni în urmă aţi anunţat un parteneriat de travel care va schimba datele pe piaţa jucătorilor din turism...\n

Avem o gândire mai complexă. În ceea ce priveşte parteneriatul anunţat ne-am pus pe lucru deja. Am creat un touroperator prin „sudarea” a patru agenţii de turism. S-a spus că e vorba de evenimentul anului. Poate o fi aşa. Cred că pe o piaţă dominată de criză, dacă vrei să creşti trebuie să stabileşti alianţe profitabile. În esenţă, Christian Tour, firmă condusă de mine, Europa Travel condusă de Teodor Călimănescu, Bibi Touring, al cărui lider este Adrian Voican, şi Pegas Holiday, manageriată de fratele meu, Marius Pandel, am format Christian Tour Group, într-un montaj nou de acţionariat. Fiecare touroperator îşi păstrează identitatea comercială dar se va specializa pe următoarele segmente – turism de 5 stele şi lux, turism de 4 stele, turism low cost (2 şi 3 stele), respectiv turism intern.

Până unde îţi permite muntele!”
\r\nÎn urmă cu un deceniu şi jumătate pe stâlpii dintre Piaţa Romană şi Piaţa Universităţii, unii trecători se opreau şi citeau, oferta unor tineri care îi invitau să călătorească prin ţară cu “Christian Adventure”. Pe foile A4, erau descrise diverse programe montane, iar sigla mesajului publicitar era Sfinxul din Bucegi. Pe atunci numele lui Cristian Pandel era cunoscut doar într-un cerc de prieteni. Interlocutorul meu rememorează vremurile astfel: “Ceea ce aminteşti se întâmpla prin 1997 când împreuna cu alţi entuziaşti am descoperit muntele. Am început prin înfiinţarea unui Club Montan. Am devenit, ca să spun aşa, montaniarzi care trăiau sentimentul de libertate pe care ţi-l dă fiecare loc nou în care ajungi şi bucuria evadării din agitaţia urbană. Trei ani mai târziu am înfiinţat Şcoala de ghizi “Christian Adventure” . Pot spune că Şcoala a avut succes iar noi speram că am reuşit să promovăm un concept. Ne gândeam, nu încă la nivel de business, să facem pasul următor. Să înfiinţăm o agenţie care să ne lege de începuturi. Aşa s-a născut în 1997 agenţia de turism Christian Tour.” Logo-ul noului brand a rămas Sfinxul din Bucegi.\r\n\r\n\r\nPrimul sediu al firmei (o investiţie de 300 de euro) a fost într-un demisol de lângă Facultatea de Drept. O locaţie sentimentală, deoarece el este absolvent al acestei instituţii de învăţământ. De atunci Christian Tour, se va confunda cu numele managerului său Cristian Pandel. Mesajele de vacanţă s-au schimbat rapid atât sub aspectul conţinutului cât şi al ariei geografice pe care o acopereau. Atracţiile montane din România au fost înlocuite cu cele din Grecia, Spania, Turcia, Bulgaria, Italia, Cipru, Franţa şi, mai recent China. Rucsacul din aventurile montane a rămas într-un colţ fiind înlocuit de planuri de afaceri şi mai ales de dorinţa de a construi un business original şi durabil. La început a oferit servicii pentru câteva sute de turişti. Azi prin Christian Tour circulă, în Europa în principal, peste 100.000 de români.\r\nLa 36 de ani Pandel e propietarul agenţiei Christian Tour.\r\n\r\n- Cum s-ar spune ai trecut din grupa mică, în care jucai ca student şi ca tânăr absolvent, în liga mare unde stai la masa touroperatorilor care contează pe piaţa românească. Te aşteptai să ajungi mai devreme la această performanţă ?\r\n
-Sincer să vă spun când am început visam poate să atingem o ţintă a performanţei. Dar nicidecum nu ne gândeam că voi ajunge la nivelul la care suntem în 2012. La această oră avem vânzări de peste 33,5 milioane de euro iar la sfârşitul anului ne aşteptăm să depăşim 35 de milioane. Dacă mă gândesc că în 2006, aveam un rulaj de circa 2 milioane de euro, iar în 2012, am înregistrat 19 milioane de euro, atunci veţi înţelege în ce staţie am ajuns. Noi am muncit foarte mult. Creşterea a fost organică de când am început. În fiecare an am crescut. Un salt mare a fost simţit de abia după 10 ani. 2007 a fost primul nostru an de boom turistic. Pe piaţa românească sunt în jur de 100 de agenţii de turism medii (cu cifra de afaceri cuprinsă între 3 şi 7-8 milioane de euro) care cresc şi doresc să devină mari, iar altele doresc să rămână pe poziţiile lor de acum, fără a dori o dezvoltare, ci doar o consolidare. Noi ne-am poziţionat în Topul primei categorii. Iar la ora actuală estimez că am urcat în clasamentul primilor 3 ca vânzări de vacanţe şi pe primul loc la numărul turiştilor pe care îi serveşte Christian Tour.
\r\n- Fără îndoială că noul venit nu a fost primit cu aplauze. Acum, după 15 ani de turism cum apreciezi că a fost climatul în care te-ai dezvoltat? Prietenos, favorabil, ostil, vitreg ?
\r\n- La început nimeni nu ne-a luat în serios. Acum când privesc în urmă gândesc că a fost un avantaj. Christian Tour nu a reprezentat pentru nimeni o ameninţare, pe piaţa de travel, până în urmă cu 10 ani. Nu eram membrii ANAT, nu participam la târguri de turism, eram o agenţie foarte mică. Totuşi începeam să avem vizibilitate, prin afişele trase la xerox pe care le lipeam pe stâlpii din zona centrală a Bucureştiului. Eu luam de la alte agenţi şi vindeam bilete pe litoralul românesc. Cum să mă considere pe atunci, altfel decât un aliat?
\r\n- A fost stimulator climatul economic în care ţi-ai construit afacerea?\r\n- După 2007, a apărut un vid în turism. De ce spun asta? Pentru că o parte din agenţiile cu vechime şi patronii lor au fost cuprinşi de febra imobiliarelor. Aveau bani şi au făcut şi mai mulţi bani. Dar au neglijat turismul unde, este drept, profitul era infim comparativ cu investiţiile imobiliare. Eu nu aveam bani. N-am câştigat cine ştie ce pâna în 2008-2009. A fost o febră foarte mare. Terenuri, construcţii, hoteluri etc. Şi atunci au lăsat locul liber pe piaţa turismului. Puţini mai făceau turism pe genunchi, cum s-ar spune. Grupuri, autocare, înscrieri, produse, pachete, într-un cuvânt multă muncă, după care mulţumeai dacă obţineai un mic profit de 3-5%. Gândiţi-vă că dacă aveam noroc scoteam un profit la sfârşitul anului de circa 100.000 de euro, în timp ce în imobiliare se scoteau 2-3 milioane pe an. Unii au câştigat, alţii au pierdut, că aşa e în afaceri. Atunci a apărut un culoar pentru noi. În 2008 am făcut primele zboruri charter. Mi-am asumat un mare risc, pentru că în spatele meu nu era nimeni, iar dacă ar fi mers prost nu aş fi avut cu ce să plătesc. Nu aveam ce să vând decât viaţa mea. E drept între 2007-2008 am riscat foarte mult. Dar în 2008 am cumpărat primele 4 autocare, care au reprezentat prima gură de oxigen la Christian Tour. E o poveste mai veche asta cu riscul. În mod sigur, în genele mele s-a imprimat experienţa câştigată pe munte pe vremea când făceam alpinism şi programe pline de adrenalină. Am crescut cu spiritul muntelui, cu aceleaşi principii. Urci, respiri, creezi, vinzi, încasezi, urci, uneori te sufoci, nu ai mască de oxigen la îndemână, te adaptezi concurenţei, creezi, vinzi, încasezi, urci! Până unde îţi permite muntele. Întrebarea este până unde poţi să urci? Climat ostil, bariere, au fost destule, dar au apărut în momentul în care am început să contăm pe piaţa turistică românească.
\r\n- Ai început cu activităţi de turism intern, care înţeleg ţi-au procurat mari satisfacţii la acea vreme. Mi se pare firesc să te întreb de ce Christian Tour este un operator de outgoing şi nu de turism intern ori incoming. S-a dovedit mai profitabil turismul extern?\r\n\r\n- Da! Întotdeauna se câştigă mai mulţi bani din turismul extern. Dacă îl faci cu pricepere şi aplicaţie. În momentul în care lucram turism intern, cu ani în urmă, era foarte greu de făcut. Nu vorbesc de litoral că acolo au rămas destul de mulţi profesionişti. Ci de staţiunile montane şi balneare. E drept că în ultimii ani lucrurile s-au mai schimbat. în bine vorbesc. De aceea noi la Christian Tour vom dezvolta în 2013 o Divizie proprie de turism intern. Şi, aşa cum suntem ambiţioşi, vom încerca să ajungem în Top 3.
\r\n- Ai declarat de mai multe ori că în topul preferinţelor tale locul 1 este ocupat pe viaţă de Grecia, în special de Insulele greceşti. De cele mai multe ori ai nominalizat Rhodos, Mikonos, Creta, Santorini ori, după cum înţeleg, vedeta ultimilor ani Zakynthos. Cum şi când a început povestea de dragoste cu Elada?
\r\n- În 2003 am început să facem Grecia. Aveam 11 camere pe un hotel din Paralia Katerini. În scurt timp am ajuns să vindem un autocar pe săptămână, împreună cu alte agenţii partenere. Tot atunci am întâlnit un grec care avea să devină cel mai bun prieten al meu, naşul de cununie şi al copiilor mei. Stratos Halkidis, deţinea un hotel în Olimpic Beach şi tot ce am dezvoltat pe Grecia am învăţat de la el. Are 46 de ani şi 25 de ani experienţă în turism. Stratos m-a sprijinit şi acoperit de multe ori. Aşa am reuşit să merg înainte. Acum vă pot spune şi un secret. E mult mai uşor să lucrezi cu grecii.

Nu este nici aspirina pe care o înghiţi atunci când te ia durerea de cap şi vrei să fugi într-un spaţiu verde, nepoluat.

\r\n\r\nAşezate faţă în faţă avantajele acestor activităţi, care presupun fireşte şi investiţii, ies clar în faţă, pentru că ele permit unei naţiuni să-şi pună în valoare potenţialul agricol, să-şi conserve tradiţiile şi să reformuleze spaţiul social şi cultural în care se manifestă. Bref, nu ne-am propus să dăm definiţia turismului rural. Nu stă în căderea noastră. Cele de mai sus sunt doar câteva idei exprimate la Piatra Neamţ, unde s-a desfăşurat între 7 şi 10 octombrie un megaeveniment continental: A IV-a ediţie a Congresului European de Turism Rural (ECRT). Nemţenii s-au întrebuinţat serios pentru că au fost gazde şi organizatori împreună cu EuroGîtes, UNWTO, Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului, ANTREC România etc.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Congres-european-de-turism-rural-307.jpg\" "\\"Congres")
\r\n\r\nSă udăm rădăcinile tradiţiilor\r\nPână unde se poate dezvolta însă turismul rural? E o întrebare firească, la care circa 250 de participanţi din 26 de ţări, au oferit ori au ascultat pledoariile cercetătorilor europeni, printre care şi cei români. Tema generică a Congresului răspundea chiar la aceste tendinţe: „Turismul inovativ – O nouă viaţă pentru zonele rurale”. La inaugurarea oficială onorată de Dacian Cioloş, Comisarul european pentru agricultură s-a arătat optimist în ceea ce priveşte agricultura şi turismul rural. El a subliniat că aceste activităţi vor contribui la renaşterea satului românesc, la crearea de noi locuri de muncă, la o producţie locală curată. „Toate acestea vor oferi noi perspective pentru conservarea tradiţiilor culturale adevăratele rădăcini identitare ale unui popor. Uniunea Europeană este preocupată să susţină asemenea demersuri prin programe care să dea consistenţă specificului local”.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Congres-european-de-turism-rural-320.jpg\" "\\"Congres")
\r\n\r\nLa rândul său Cristian Bărhălescu, secretar de stat pentru turism în Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului considera că „Oamenii secolului al XXI-lea caută tot mai mult un colţ de natură unde să-şi petreacă vacanţele. Satele româneşti - bogate în tradiţii, istorie şi natură - oferă experienţe variate celor care încearcă să-şi regăsească rădăcinile, celor în căutare de relaxare sau odihnă activă, ori de cultură locală şi de experimentarea stilului de viaţă rural. În aceste condiţii, conservarea mediului şi a identităţii etnografice sunt esenţiale pentru turismul rural”. Am mai selecta şi afirmaţia Preşedintelului Consiliului Judeţean Neamţ, Culiţă Tărâţă, care readucea aminte participanţilor că turismul rural „este o şansă pentru dezvoltarea economică locală şi regională, în condiţiile în care circa 40% din populaţia României trăieşte în mediul rural. Încă la nivel de Uniune Europeană ne sufocă birocraţia atunci când accesăm fonduri pentru programe de dezvoltare. Vom milita pentru simplificarea procedurilor de obţinere a finanţărilor. Agricultura românească are încă un potenţial neexprimat. Noi putem da de mâncare nu la 19 milioane de români ci la peste 100 de milioane de oameni.”\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Congres-european-de-turism-rural-323.jpg\" "\\"Congres")
Şi prostia naşte monştrii\r\nCum era şi normal obiectivul principal al congresului a fost de a prezenta participanţilor bune practici şi exemple de succes înregistrate în domeniul turismului rural, care au contribuit la dezvoltarea rapidă a industriei turistice în ţări din Europa şi din lume, precum şi modalităţi prin care turismul rural s-a integrat şi adaptat rapid cerinţelor pieţei turistice mondiale. Poţi supravieţui prin turismul rural? Vittoria Brancaccio, preşedintele Eurogîtes (Federaţia Europeană a Turismului Rural), este de părere că da! „Creşterea ratei demografice la ţară, duce la creşterea serviciilor, care vor deveni mai ieftine, comparativ cu cele de la oraş. Este o provocare reală mai ales că din ce în ce mai mulţi oameni vor căuta soluţii de alimentaţie curate, ecologice. Apoi sunt convinsă că asistăm de ani buni la o reîntoarcere la natură, iar generaţiile tinere trebuie încurajate să facă acest lucru”. Referindu-se la valorificarea resurselor locale şi a dinamicii sociale Klaus Ehrlich, secretar general al EuroGîtes, a ţinut să sublineze cîteva aspecte foarte importante. „Turismul rural nu e numai cazare. Este un concept prezent care trebuie pregătit pentru viitor. În trecut organizaţia noastră era susţinută de către guverne. Acum ea trebuie susţinută prin politici globale de către Uniunea Europeană. Lucrurile s-au schimbat inclusiv sub aspectul comunicării. Noile tehnologii şi Internetul influenţează deja masiv exprimarea turismului rural. Migraţia spre oraş a schimbat raportul valorilor consumatorilor. Nu mai sunt suficiente doar investiţiile în amenjarea ori construirea de pensiuni rurale. Va trebui investit în cultural culinară, pescuit, industria prelucrării lemnului ori în cea a evenimentelor. Asistăm şi la apariţia unor interese conflictuale – spre exemplu dezvoltarea agriculturii intensive o afectează pe cea a turismului rural”.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Congres-european-de-turism-rural-343.jpg\" "\\"Congres")
\r\n\r\nMarilena Stoian, preşedintele de Onoare al ANTREC România, a vorbit despre evoluţia din ultimii 20 de ani a turismului rural şi ecologic din România. „De la câteva pensiuni care funcţionau disparat la începutul anilor ‘90 am ajuns la peste 5.000 de pensiuni înregistrate oficial în prezent. Majoritatea lor au ales să se asocieze, începând din anul 1994, odată cu înfiinţarea ANTREC România, iar în anul imediar următor s-au afiliat Federaţiei Europene de Turism Rural (EuroGîtes). La ora actuală , e nevoie la nivel european de o politică globală. De aceea este nevoie de un lobby permanent făcut la Bruxelles pentru a creşte fondurile alocate acestui domeniu. Soluţia dezvoltării turismului, în particular a turismului rural este inovaţia şi creaţia permanentă”. Ne-a plăcut foarte mult modul în care preşedintele ANTREC, a amendat o gafă, de fapt o prostie de proporţii, pronunţată pe scenă de o prezentatoare, al cărui nume nu merită reţinut. Plină de aere ea a afirmat că „turismul rural din România, e ca şi inexistent”. Poate mai pune şi ea mâna pe o carte! Tot în contul ANTREC, trecem şi „Diploma de Excelenţă”, acordată organizaţiei, de către Casa Regală a României.\r\n\r\nE nevoie de un brand-umbrelă\r\nÎn secţiunile de specialitate au fost dezbătute numeroase tendinţe specifice domeniului. De la dezvoltarea reţelelor locale în beneficiul turismului rural (o abordare este aceea ca un număr cât mai mare de producători locali să fie, practic, furnizori de produse/servicii pentru turişti) – Philippe Francois, Preşedinte ECORISMO, şi Petri Rinne, Preşedinte ELARD, organizaţie care lucrează proiecte în 23 de ţări -, până la valoarea experienţei şi exploatarea ei (de exemplu, prin solicitarea, de la clienţi, a unei minime evaluări a perioadei de şedere a acestora în unităţi de primire agroturistice, în ideea că, numai cunoscând aşteptările vizitatorilor, poate fi îmbunătăţită oferta turistică) – Katia Sidali, de la Universitatea din Gottingen ori Fouli \r\n\r\nPapageorgiou de la Euroacademy.\r\nO atenţie specială a revenit marketingului şi promovării. Linas Zabaliunas, reprezentantă a Eurogites, a arătat că se simte nevoia unui concept comun, la nivel european, de etichetare a produselor provenite din zona agroturistică, astfel încât ele să se individualizeze puternic în opţiunile consumatorilor. „Deci vom avea nevoie de un brand-umbrelă care să fie susţinut de sub-brandurile naţionale. La asta lucrăm acum. Un logo comun va fi practicat într-o primă etapă de 9 ţări urmând apoi să fie extins. „Qualitool” este o marcă cu mai multă vizibilitate şi ea va genera profit şi încredere”. În fine printre atâtea lucruri deosebite am reţinut excelentele prezentări ale potenţialului turistic rural din Estonia (apropo, ştiaţi că este cunoscută şi ca ţara cu 1.500 de insule?) respectiv Irlanda (cu un concept B&B, care generează anual 20 de milioane de euro), susţinute de către Raili Mengel-Sunt şi Margaret Cahil.\r\nDespre segmentele tematice şi vizitele la obiectivele turistice reprezentative ale judeţului Neamţ - Moştenire culturală, Natură, Gastronomie şi Aventură -, în numerele viitoare.

Tema generică a Congresului răspundea chiar la aceste tendinţe: „Turismul inovativ – O nouă viaţă pentru zonele rurale”. La inaugurarea oficială onorată de Dacian Cioloş, Comisarul european pentru agricultură s-a arătat optimist în ceea ce priveşte agricultura şi turismul rural. El a subliniat că aceste activităţi vor contribui la renaşterea satului românesc, la crearea de noi locuri de muncă, la o producţie locală curată. „Toate acestea vor oferi noi perspective pentru conservarea tradiţiilor culturale adevăratele rădăcini identitare ale unui popor. Uniunea Europeană este preocupată să susţină asemenea demersuri prin programe care să dea consistenţă specificului local”.\n\n\nLa rândul său Cristian Bărhălescu, secretar de stat pentru turism în Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului considera că „Oamenii secolului al XXI-lea caută tot mai mult un colţ de natură unde să-şi petreacă vacanţele. Satele româneşti - bogate în tradiţii, istorie şi natură - oferă experienţe variate celor care încearcă să-şi regăsească rădăcinile, celor în căutare de relaxare sau odihnă activă, ori de cultură locală şi de experimentarea stilului de viaţă rural. În aceste condiţii, conservarea mediului şi a identităţii etnografice sunt esenţiale pentru turismul rural”. Am mai selecta şi afirmaţia Preşedintelului Consiliului Judeţean Neamţ, Culiţă Tărâţă, care readucea aminte participanţilor că turismul rural „este o şansă pentru dezvoltarea economică locală şi regională, în condiţiile în care circa 40% din populaţia României trăieşte în mediul rural. Încă la nivel de Uniune Europeană ne sufocă birocraţia atunci când accesăm fonduri pentru programe de dezvoltare. Vom milita pentru simplificarea procedurilor de obţinere a finanţărilor. Agricultura românească are încă un potenţial neexprimat. Noi putem da de mâncare nu la 19 milioane de români ci la peste 100 de milioane de oameni.”\n
Şi prostia naşte monştrii\nCum era şi normal obiectivul principal al congresului a fost de a prezenta participanţilor bune practici şi exemple de succes înregistrate în domeniul turismului rural, care au contribuit la dezvoltarea rapidă a industriei turistice în ţări din Europa şi din lume, precum şi modalităţi prin care turismul rural s-a integrat şi adaptat rapid cerinţelor pieţei turistice mondiale. Poţi supravieţui prin turismul rural? Vittoria Brancaccio, preşedintele Eurogîtes (Federaţia Europeană a Turismului Rural), este de părere că da! „Creşterea ratei demografice la ţară, duce la creşterea serviciilor, care vor deveni mai ieftine, comparativ cu cele de la oraş. Este o provocare reală mai ales că din ce în ce mai mulţi oameni vor căuta soluţii de alimentaţie curate, ecologice. Apoi sunt convinsă că asistăm de ani buni la o reîntoarcere la natură, iar generaţiile tinere trebuie încurajate să facă acest lucru”. Referindu-se la valorificarea resurselor locale şi a dinamicii sociale Klaus Ehrlich, secretar general al EuroGîtes, a ţinut să sublineze cîteva aspecte foarte importante. „Turismul rural nu e numai cazare. Este un concept prezent care trebuie pregătit pentru viitor. În trecut organizaţia noastră era susţinută de către guverne. Acum ea trebuie susţinută prin politici globale de către Uniunea Europeană. Lucrurile s-au schimbat inclusiv sub aspectul comunicării. Noile tehnologii şi Internetul influenţează deja masiv exprimarea turismului rural. Migraţia spre oraş a schimbat raportul valorilor consumatorilor. Nu mai sunt suficiente doar investiţiile în amenjarea ori construirea de pensiuni rurale. Va trebui investit în cultural culinară, pescuit, industria prelucrării lemnului ori în cea a evenimentelor. Asistăm şi la apariţia unor interese conflictuale – spre exemplu dezvoltarea agriculturii intensive o afectează pe cea a turismului rural”.\n\n\nMarilena Stoian, preşedintele de Onoare al ANTREC România, a vorbit despre evoluţia din ultimii 20 de ani a turismului rural şi ecologic din România. „De la câteva pensiuni care funcţionau disparat la începutul anilor ‘90 am ajuns la peste 5.000 de pensiuni înregistrate oficial în prezent. Majoritatea lor au ales să se asocieze, începând din anul 1994, odată cu înfiinţarea ANTREC România, iar în anul imediar următor s-au afiliat Federaţiei Europene de Turism Rural (EuroGîtes). La ora actuală , e nevoie la nivel european de o politică globală. De aceea este nevoie de un lobby permanent făcut la Bruxelles pentru a creşte fondurile alocate acestui domeniu. Soluţia dezvoltării turismului, în particular a turismului rural este inovaţia şi creaţia permanentă”. Ne-a plăcut foarte mult modul în care preşedintele ANTREC, a amendat o gafă, de fapt o prostie de proporţii, pronunţată pe scenă de o prezentatoare, al cărui nume nu merită reţinut. Plină de aere ea a afirmat că „turismul rural din România, e ca şi inexistent”. Poate mai pune şi ea mâna pe o carte! Tot în contul ANTREC, trecem şi „Diploma de Excelenţă”, acordată organizaţiei, de către Casa Regală a României.\n\nE nevoie de un brand-umbrelă\nÎn secţiunile de specialitate au fost dezbătute numeroase tendinţe specifice domeniului. De la dezvoltarea reţelelor locale în beneficiul turismului rural (o abordare este aceea ca un număr cât mai mare de producători locali să fie, practic, furnizori de produse/servicii pentru turişti) – Philippe Francois, Preşedinte ECORISMO, şi Petri Rinne, Preşedinte ELARD, organizaţie care lucrează proiecte în 23 de ţări -, până la valoarea experienţei şi exploatarea ei (de exemplu, prin solicitarea, de la clienţi, a unei minime evaluări a perioadei de şedere a acestora în unităţi de primire agroturistice, în ideea că, numai cunoscând aşteptările vizitatorilor, poate fi îmbunătăţită oferta turistică) – Katia Sidali, de la Universitatea din Gottingen ori Fouli \n\nPapageorgiou de la Euroacademy.\nO atenţie specială a revenit marketingului şi promovării. Linas Zabaliunas, reprezentantă a Eurogites, a arătat că se simte nevoia unui concept comun, la nivel european, de etichetare a produselor provenite din zona agroturistică, astfel încât ele să se individualizeze puternic în opţiunile consumatorilor. „Deci vom avea nevoie de un brand-umbrelă care să fie susţinut de sub-brandurile naţionale. La asta lucrăm acum. Un logo comun va fi practicat într-o primă etapă de 9 ţări urmând apoi să fie extins. „Qualitool” este o marcă cu mai multă vizibilitate şi ea va genera profit şi încredere”. În fine printre atâtea lucruri deosebite am reţinut excelentele prezentări ale potenţialului turistic rural din Estonia (apropo, ştiaţi că este cunoscută şi ca ţara cu 1.500 de insule?) respectiv Irlanda (cu un concept B&B, care generează anual 20 de milioane de euro), susţinute de către Raili Mengel-Sunt şi Margaret Cahil.\nDespre segmentele tematice şi vizitele la obiectivele turistice reprezentative ale judeţului Neamţ - Moştenire culturală, Natură, Gastronomie şi Aventură -, în numerele viitoare.

Pe planeta asta sunt mulţi oameni care iubesc caii. Unii pentru beneficiile aduse la muncă. Alţii pentru că reamintesc mereu de lumea fascinantă a luptelor cavalereşti. Desigur, sunt şi foarte mulţi care îi iubesc, pentru frumuseţea şi inteligenţa lor, ori pentru simplul fapt că este cel mai devotat prieten al omului. De aceea cresc herghelii şi îi promovează drept... vedete turistice. La asta s-a gândit prin anii 2006 familia Bodor Mark, care conduce ferma de cabaline Bodor Major. Se află pe malul Dunării, în vecinătatea oraşului-muzeu Szentendre, la numai 30 de kilometri de Budapesta. E locul unde fluviul întâlneşte munţii şi trece leneş prin Pusta Tahi, parte a celebrei puste ungare. Ferma e specializată pe creşterea şi dresajul cabalin al cailor Lipiţani. O afacere de familie aflăm. Membrii ei acoperă activităţile tematice ale vieţii de fermier – bărbaţii sunt vizitii şi buni companioni, iar doamnele sunt specializate în spectacole de călărie fină şi... gastronomie. Toţi, cu mic cu mare, sunt membri activi ai Comitetului Ecvestru Ungar. \r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/bodor-major-budapesta2.jpg\" "\\"bodor-major-budapesta2\\"")
\r\n\r\nIntrăm în ferma Bodor Major aşa cum se cuvine. Transportaţi de căruţe, fireşte trase de cai, cu care ne îndreptăm spre restaurantul şi tribuna de unde vom urmări spectacolul ecvestru. Înainte facem un tur al proprietăţii care se întinde pe o suprafaţă de 50 de hectare. Aflăm de la Mark că aici sunt oferite turiştilor, programe de echitaţie, plimbări cu trăsura prin Parcul naţional. Familiile îşi pot însoţi sau lăsa singuri copiii, totul e safe, să străbată rute de iniţiere ori educaţionale. Ei sunt familiarizaţi cu arta călăritului dar şi cu ceea ce trebuie să ştii pentru a reuşi să-ţi face prieteni armăsarii nervoşi.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/bodor-major-budapesta3.jpg\" "\\"bodor-major-budapesta3\\"")
\r\n\r\nNe reintoarcem. Începe spectacolul. E momentul cel mai căutat de miile de turişti locali ori străini. Are şi un nume - „Csikos”. Cuprinde dresură, numere acrobatice indepedendente sau în grup, curse de cai, toate dovedind că acest animal nobil a fost şi este parte din istoria profundă a Ungariei. Nu rataţi momentul comic cu măgăruşii dar mai ales senzaţionalul număr „să baţi sticla şi femeia”. Nu este ce pare la prima vedere ci un număr de măiestrie. E drept se foloseşte biciul, cu care însă e prinsă o sticlă aşezată pe capul unei femei. Voluntarii sunt din rândul publicului, iar turistele care acceptă... invitaţia, trăiesc câteva minute de suspans şi adrenalină. Episodul, gustat din plin, lasă urme emoţionale, în funcţie de cât de tare se arată persoana aleasă. Şi, cum în mod sigur, vi s-a făcut foame sunteţi aşteptaţi la restaurant cu o masă câmpenească cu mâncăruri specifice, consumaţie nelimitată inclusiv la băuturi. Programul de o zi costă cam 30 - 35 de euro de persoană. Gazdele ne mai spun că proprietatea găzduieşte numeroase alte activităţi. Spre exemplu seri tematice - de la nunţi, botezuri, cine folclorice la seri de operetă, wine dinner, grill party etc. În sezonul de iarnă foarte căutate pentru savoarea lor tradiţională sunt serile de Ignat, unde turiştii îşi pun şorţul, participă la sacrificarea, prepararea - şi ştiţi cum se întâmplă de obicei -, se înghesuie mai ales la „degustarea” produse naturale pe bază de carne - jumări, cârnaţi, friptane, gulaş, frigărui asezonate cu cartofi copţi la cuptor, cu pâine aburindă, şi murături cât cuprinde -, preparate după picante reţete ungureşti. Delicioase, e puţin spus. Fireşte, deschiderea se face cu palinkă, iar un vin roşu sîngeriu, merge după unul alb, rece şi sec. Cum vă place.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/bodor-major-budapesta4.jpg\" "\\"bodor-major-budapesta4\\"")

E locul unde fluviul întâlneşte munţii şi trece leneş prin Pusta Tahi, parte a celebrei puste ungare. Ferma e specializată pe creşterea şi dresajul cabalin al cailor Lipiţani. O afacere de familie aflăm. Membrii ei acoperă activităţile tematice ale vieţii de fermier – bărbaţii sunt vizitii şi buni companioni, iar doamnele sunt specializate în spectacole de călărie fină şi... gastronomie. Toţi, cu mic cu mare, sunt membri activi ai Comitetului Ecvestru Ungar. \n\n\nIntrăm în ferma Bodor Major aşa cum se cuvine. Transportaţi de căruţe, fireşte trase de cai, cu care ne îndreptăm spre restaurantul şi tribuna de unde vom urmări spectacolul ecvestru. Înainte facem un tur al proprietăţii care se întinde pe o suprafaţă de 50 de hectare. Aflăm de la Mark că aici sunt oferite turiştilor, programe de echitaţie, plimbări cu trăsura prin Parcul naţional. Familiile îşi pot însoţi sau lăsa singuri copiii, totul e safe, să străbată rute de iniţiere ori educaţionale. Ei sunt familiarizaţi cu arta călăritului dar şi cu ceea ce trebuie să ştii pentru a reuşi să-ţi face prieteni armăsarii nervoşi.\n\nNe reintoarcem. Începe spectacolul. E momentul cel mai căutat de miile de turişti locali ori străini. Are şi un nume - „Csikos”. Cuprinde dresură, numere acrobatice indepedendente sau în grup, curse de cai, toate dovedind că acest animal nobil a fost şi este parte din istoria profundă a Ungariei. Nu rataţi momentul comic cu măgăruşii dar mai ales senzaţionalul număr „să baţi sticla şi femeia”. Nu este ce pare la prima vedere ci un număr de măiestrie. E drept se foloseşte biciul, cu care însă e prinsă o sticlă aşezată pe capul unei femei. Voluntarii sunt din rândul publicului, iar turistele care acceptă... invitaţia, trăiesc câteva minute de suspans şi adrenalină. Episodul, gustat din plin, lasă urme emoţionale, în funcţie de cât de tare se arată persoana aleasă. Şi, cum în mod sigur, vi s-a făcut foame sunteţi aşteptaţi la restaurant cu o masă câmpenească cu mâncăruri specifice, consumaţie nelimitată inclusiv la băuturi. Programul de o zi costă cam 30 - 35 de euro de persoană. Gazdele ne mai spun că proprietatea găzduieşte numeroase alte activităţi. Spre exemplu seri tematice - de la nunţi, botezuri, cine folclorice la seri de operetă, wine dinner, grill party etc. În sezonul de iarnă foarte căutate pentru savoarea lor tradiţională sunt serile de Ignat, unde turiştii îşi pun şorţul, participă la sacrificarea, prepararea - şi ştiţi cum se întâmplă de obicei -, se înghesuie mai ales la „degustarea” produse naturale pe bază de carne - jumări, cârnaţi, friptane, gulaş, frigărui asezonate cu cartofi copţi la cuptor, cu pâine aburindă, şi murături cât cuprinde -, preparate după picante reţete ungureşti. Delicioase, e puţin spus. Fireşte, deschiderea se face cu palinkă, iar un vin roşu sîngeriu, merge după unul alb, rece şi sec. Cum vă place.\n\nAţi venit la Budapesta? Vreţi să vă convingeţi cu ochii dumneavoastră cum stau lucrurile la ferma Bodor Major? Vă rămâne doar să accesaţi adresa www. imolatours.com şi să apelaţi la serviciile agenţiei Imola Tours.

Liderul Asociaţiei Naţionale a Ghizilor din România, domnul Tiberiu Munteanu, ne semnalează un studiu epocal pe care l-a realizat un “specialist” englez la Bruxelles. Citiţi şi vă minunaţi. Iată cum sună comentariul în cauză: “95% dintre români înţeleg spontan limba moldovenească”. Un studiu iniţiat de Comitetul pe probleme de lingvism al Uniunii Europene a relevat, în mod absolut surprinzător, că 95,26% dintre români înţeleg spontan limba oficială a Republicii Moldova, respectiv, limba moldovenească. Fenomenul este cu atât mai teribil, cu cât limba în cauza este, după cum probabil se cunoaşte, una dintre cele mai noi limbi indo-europene, apărută pe planetă de abia două decenii, mai exact, în anul 1989. Cercetatorii britanici afirmă că singura explicaţie plauzibilă este că românii sunt înzestraţi genetic cu inteligenţă deosebită, talent în comunicare şi o profundă înclinaţie spre limbi străine. Un argument invocat în sprijinul acestei teorii este şi acela că procentul de 4,74% din populaţie care nu manifestă o asemenea înţelegere spontană este reprezentat de minorităţi naţionale, în special, maghiare, care de asemenea, nu înţeleg nici limba română. Studiul a fost demarat de autorităţile europene, în încercarea de a cuantifica necesarul de traducători autorizaţi din limba română, în “limba moldovenească”. ![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/foto/coperta/103/Traveller%20Magazin%20coperta%20103.jpg\")

Citiţi şi vă minunaţi. Iată cum sună comentariul în cauză: “95% dintre români înţeleg spontan limba moldovenească”. Un studiu iniţiat de Comitetul pe probleme de lingvism al Uniunii Europene a relevat, în mod absolut surprinzător, că 95,26% dintre români înţeleg spontan limba oficială a Republicii Moldova, respectiv, limba moldovenească. Fenomenul este cu atât mai teribil, cu cât limba în cauza este, după cum probabil se cunoaşte, una dintre cele mai noi limbi indo-europene, apărută pe planetă de abia două decenii, mai exact, în anul 1989. Cercetatorii britanici afirmă că singura explicaţie plauzibilă este că românii sunt înzestraţi genetic cu inteligenţă deosebită, talent în comunicare şi o profundă înclinaţie spre limbi străine. Un argument invocat în sprijinul acestei teorii este şi acela că procentul de 4,74% din populaţie care nu manifestă o asemenea înţelegere spontană este reprezentat de minorităţi naţionale, în special, maghiare, care de asemenea, nu înţeleg nici limba română. Studiul a fost demarat de autorităţile europene, în încercarea de a cuantifica necesarul de traducători autorizaţi din limba română, în “limba moldovenească”. Nu-i banc, dar e bun! Reţineţi este vorba de un studiu comandat de Uniuniea Europeană. Îţi stă mintea în loc – conchide Tiberiu Munteanu.\r\n\r\nCe-ar mai fi de adăugat? Că studiul a fost finanţat de Uniunea Europeană, care Uniune ar fi trebuit să-i dea în cap englezului cu... concluziile halucinante la care a ajuns. Dacă omul nu e debil în mod sigur a fost beat când a studiat... nimic.

cunoscător al vinurilor îmi spunea că dacă europenii şi-ar vărsa tot vinul pe care-l produce anual, ar da naştere unui lac imens. Nu ştiu dacă acesta ar avea dimensiunea Balatonului, dar pe noi, o mână de blogări şi editori de turism, ne-a dus gândul într-acolo. Pentru că am mers într-un infotrip, deh, alte ţări turistice ştiu să valorifice sezonul de iarnă pregătind promovarea celui de primăvară-vară, în care s-a promovat Nordul Ungariei.\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\n\nLudovic şi... patrimoniul UNESCO\n\nTematica a fost „Vinuri şi ape termale”. Aşa că fiţi indulgenţi cu noi. După ce ne veţi însoţi pe ruta Tokaj, ei sigur că aţi auzit de această zonă, Miskolc şi Eger. Despre Tokaj vă vom spune că produce o furtună în zona papilelor gustative, cu vinul Aszu, cuprinsă între 2,3 şi 6 buttoni, care marchează, printre altele, concentraţia de zahăr. Sunt vinuri aurii, dulci. Reţineţi pentru testat unicul Szamorodni, Furmintul parfumat şi vinurile muscat. Poveşti despre mucegaiul nobil, care lucrează în favoarea regiunii viniviticole, veţi auzi la tot pasul. Dar eu vă recomand un scurt sejur la Castelul Degenfeld. E o proprietate care a fost un fel de sediu al CAP-ului din zonă, înainte de ’89. Deşi familia Degenfeld, locuieşte în Germania, ea a investit şi a readus strălucirea acestei proprietăţi devenită membră a Tokaj Renaissance, Asociaţie a producătorilor de vinuri clasificate din zonă. După 1994 aici s-a produs o adevărată revoluţie de proiecte arhitectonice. Acum puteţi să vă delectaţi într-o cramă istorică dar echipată cu tehnologii moderne de vinificaţie dar şi într-un mic hotel istoric, care crează apetitul pentru organizarea de evenimente. Dacă ajungeţi aici nu rataţi Tojak Furmint şi Fortissimo. Părerea mea. O altă locaţie excelentă este Andrassy Rezidencia, promovat ca un hotel boutique... Wine & Spa, în care puteţi face chiar împachetări cu ciocolată. Cât despre zona de Spa, este fascinant de frumoasă şi bine amenjată. Eszter Balint, Guest Relation Manager, ne-a arătat şi alte elemente forte ale hotelului. Gastronomia de top e încă unul. Nu uităm nici crama Fuleky, care vine pe piaţă cu vinuri noi prelucrate de Brezovcsik Gyorgy, nici oraşul care arată din ce în ce mai bine. Oriunde întorci ochii dai de crame, biserici şi statui. Una dintre ele e tare... bahică. Un fel de cetăţean turmentat, cam golaş călărind un butoi. Despre vinurile de Tokaj nu întâmplător Ludovic al XIV-lea spunea că este „vinul regilor şi regele vinurilor”. Ei, aşa că ne-am umflat şi noi pieptul ca nişte regi străbătând centrul localităţii ce face parte din Patrimoniul Mondial al UNESCO.\n\nAm privit stelele din Eger\n\nCredeţi că aţi aflat câte ceva despre vinurile din Ungaria. Cu singuranţă, vă înşelaţi. La Eger n-am ştiut de unde să prindem mai întâi povestea oraşului. Tradiţional merge cu... romanul „Stelele din Eger”, care povesteşte despre faptele de vitejie a câtorva sute de unguri în faţa turcilor care au asediat cetatea pe care n-au reuşit să o ocupe decât după multe decenii. Faptele de vitejie au în spate secretul vinului. Şi cum s-ar numi decât Sânge de taur? Vinul are o poveste, cetatea a fost renovată, tinerii fac aici regie şi istorie pentru turiştii ce vizitează obiectivul. Turcii au lăsat o Baie Turcească, altfel ce farmec ar avea apele termale, şi nu s-au atins de viţa de vie. Despre soiurile nobile aflaţi că la Eger performează vreo 200 de producători de vinuri, mijlocii şi medii, fiecare încercând să-şi apropie mărcile de vinuri de medaliile de aur, argint şi bronz din competiţiile internaţionale. Gal Tibor este unul dintre ei. E un tânăr tare bine documentat, coborât dintr-o familie de vinificatori, iar dinspre mamă descendent al compozitorului Bela Bartok. Eger-ul excelează prin vinurile roşii, dar merită să testaţi noile generaţii de vinuri albe seci ori demi-seci. La Gal Tibor am mers pe un Cabernet Franc de 2008 şi pe o Kadarka de 2009. O altă opţiune ar fi Cramele Bolyki, dublate tot de o poveste de familie, tata şi fiul. Fiul e cam „zombi”, scuze, e un tip cu aplicaţii de a dărâma şi reamenaja dealuri, pe dinafară dar şi pe dinăuntru. Acum, cramele subterane se întind pe câţiva kilometri, avem şi săli de evenimente acoperite şi descoperite, printre are şi una care aminteşte de stilul gotic. Jani, spune că povestea lui a început în 1974. A cramei e mult mai veche. Încercaţi un 100% Bikaver (adică, ştiţi, Sânge de Taur), dar nu ocoliţi nici Cabernet Franc ori un Rose de clasă. Merge şi un Indian Summer.\nCa să rămâneţi în picioare după un eventual maraton al testărilor de vinuri din zona Eger, trebuie să vă ranforsaţi în apele termale. Ca şi vinul şi ele ţâşnesc aici din abundenţă. O experienţă de nopţi şi zile merită să trăiţi la Saliris Resort – Spa & Conference Hotel, ideal pentru familii şi punere în formă. Vă oferă vreo 200 de camere, dar punctul forte sunt piscinele termale şi micul Pamukale din faţa ferestrelor dumneavoastră – ne spune directorul de marketing Bodnar Erika.\n\nOţelul, broscuţa şi... piftia\n\nMiskolc a fost tare cândva. Un oraş metalurgic în care se bătea fierul cât era cald, în trei schimburi. Locuri de muncă, salarii atractive. Export. Prosperitatea acelor ani. Nu se mai întâmplă azi. Ca şi la noi industria grea a fost pusă pe chituci, iar locuri de muncă alternative nu au apărut în compensare. Aşezarea, dacă nu ştiaţi este a treia ca mărime din Ungaria. Ajuns aici nu uita să-ţi introduci în agendă cetatea din Diosgyor una dintre cele mai vechi vestigii ale oraşului. Datează din perioada Renaşterii şi a fost un dar de nuntă primit de regină. La puţin timp a devenit un loc de tristă faimă, pentru că aici erau executate... vrăjitoarele. Această atmosferă amestecată, de fast şi furie, este evocată în fiecare an, vară de vară, în cinstea regelui Nagy Lajos, îndrăgostit de muzică şi foarte puţin belicos. După aceea fugiţi până la Muzeul Herman Otto, unde e cea mai completă colecţie de minerale din ţară. Cea mai tare din parcare este însă experienţa pe care o puteţi trăi făcând baie într-o peşteră. Da, aţi citit bine, e vorba de cea de la Miskolctapolca, unde apa şi aerul din peşteră sunt doi factori naturali curativi, benefici în tratarea bolilor de inimă, a celor respiratorii, a afecţiunilor aparatului locomotor. În proximitate se mai află şi cel mai mare Parc de aventură din Ungaria de Nord.\nDar toate acestea nu ajung să compenseze locurile de muncă dispărute. Pentru a fi create altele tinerii au fost încurajaţi să lanseze proiecte culturale care azi stau la baza renaşterii oraşului. Cel mai sonor ca marcă, şi veţi vedea şi de ce, este Festivalul Piftiei care spun organizatorii a ajuns să se impună ca o marcă de excelenţă a Ungariei. Mascota acesteia este o broscuţă mică dar cu ochi sclipitori. Nu întâmplător. Legenda spune că în vremuri de demult o faţă luminată a avut supriza atunci când se pregătea să abordeze o piftie, să fie suprinsă de privirile strălucitoare ale unei broscuţe care se cam... rătăcise prin gelatina sa. Rozsa Edit, unul dintre liderii Festival Internaţional, ne precizează că anul acesta, spre exemplu, manifestarea culturală a atras numeroşi artişti români şi ne relatează despre buna cooperare avută cu Institutul Cultural Român din Budapesta. Un model, spune gazda noastră, de schimburi de valori. Pe acelaşi format între 21 şi 24 februarie 2013, invitatul de onoare al Festivalului Piftiei este oraşul slovac Kosice, care va fi anul viitor şi Capitală Culturală Europeană. Dincolo de schimburi de tradiţii, preparate inedite din ale piftiei, mai trebuie să ştiţi că aici sunt prezenţi peste 900 de producători de vinuri şi alte licori. Unii dintre ei, privesc cu nostalgie spre fumul care iese dintr-un furnal al vechii oţelării. Este utilizat doar atunci cînd la Miskolc au loc manifestări ce atrag mii de turişti. O parte dintre ei se îndreaptă acolo pentru a vedea demonstraţii live. Ceilalţi, tineri şi dinamici, se bucură de festivalul Piftiei care este un spaţiu atractiv şi pentru sport, sănătate, ecologie, turism de aventură ori gastronomie. Apropo de arta culinară. Dacă ajungeţi aici la viitoarea ediţie nu ocoliţi Restaurantul Kortyolda. Chiar în centru. Este foarte cunoscut pentru berea originală servită aici. Un mixt între vinul Azsu şi bere de culoare roze. Merită să o testaţi. Despre gust, vorbim după aceea, la o porţie de piftie.\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU ','UNGARIA: CAP COMPAS NORDUL','','inherit','open','open','','1704-revision','','','2013-01-08 14:41:16','2013-01-08 12:41:16','',1704,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2013/01/08/1704-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(1730,1,'2013-01-14 03:31:44','2013-01-14 01:31:44','ÎNCĂ UN TERMINAL PE AEROPORTUL OTOPENI

Alte investiţii particulare realizate în această perioadă au avut ca obiectiv pensiuni şi hoteluri particulare de mici dimensiuni. Al doilea deceniu al mileniului trei a început cu proiecte de investiţii importante pentru staţiune, atât particulare dar şi ale administraţiei publice locale condusă de primarul Nicuşor Vasilescu care ne sublinia că: “Anul 2012 a însemnat pentru Băile Herculane continuarea proiectelor finanţate, precum şi continuarea eforturilor depuse în anii anteriori de către administraţia locală pentru obţinerea finanţărilor proiectelor în cadrul programului de reabilitare a staţiunii desfăşurat sub deviza ‘Staţiunea renaşte!’. Reabilitarea infrastructurii fizice a Străzii Romane este un proiect finalizat. El oferă deja oaspeţilor veniţi în staţiune, condiţii plăcute pentru a vizita, chiar şi după lăsarea întunericului, vestigii romane ale uneia dintre cele mai vechi staţiuni din lume, ale cărei baze au fost puse de către împăratul Traian. Strada Romană integrează staţiunea Băile Herculane în proiectul MDRT „Drumul Împăraţilor Romani”. Memorandumul a fost semnat în 24 februarie 2012 între România, Serbia, Bulgaria şi Croaţia şi prevede cooperare turistică între ţările menţionate prin programe turistice culturale tematice, cu vizitarea obiectivelor istorice situate de-a lungul unor rute care au aparţinut cândva Imperiului Roman. Este un proiect simbol pentru staţiune dacă ne gândim că în 2013, Băile Herculane vom aniversa 1860 de ani de atestare documentară”.\r\nRuta de la Biserica Romano – Catolică şi până dincolo de Hotelul Roman, la podul de la Uzina electrică, Strada Romană s-a transformat într-un adevărat loc de promenadă, oferind un plăcut cadru ambiental roman turiştilor care vizitează staţiunea. Lucrările de refacere a infrastructurii străzii, pavarea trotuarului cu piatră cubică, refacerea balustradei, montarea unor coloane romane la cele două intrări ale străzii şi a unor statui romane şi basoreliefuri de-a lungul străzii te introduc în atmosferă vremurilor demult apuse când împăratul roman Marcus Aurelius (Caracalla) venea în anul 214 d. Ch., împreună cu mama sa Iulia Domna la tratament la AD AQUAS HERCULI SACRAS AD MEDIAM („La Apele Sfinte ale lui Hercules de lângă Mehadia”).\r\nCe se întâmplă cu sectorul privat? O întrebare firească, având în vedere că renaşterea staţiunii nu poate fi realizată fără investiţiile private care să relanseze economia locală.\r\nPrimarul Vasilescu apreciază că „Noii proprietari ai clădirilor din Centrul Imperial Istoric au înţeles care este intenţia noastră cu privire la viitorul staţiunii şi derulează lucrări de reabilitare la Hotelul Decebal, Hotelul Traian, iar Pavilionul 5 este aproape gata. Băile Imperiale Austriece (Băile Neptun) cunoşteau un stadiu avansat de degradare. După numeroase negocieri cu fostul proprietar am reuşit sa le preluăm în urma unei tranzacţii. Intenţionăm să găsim o soluţie pentru a face din acest edificiu balnear, altădată unul dintre cele mai frumoase ale Europei, un „Centru de tratament” complex care sa includă pe lângă tratamentul balnear clasic care se practică prin tradiţie în staţiune şi tratamentul geriatric marca Ana Aslan, care atrăgea, în anii 70 – 80, la Băile Herculane, un flux important de străini. Privitor la sectorul privat mai subliniez că investiţii semnificative s-au derulat în 2010, 2011, 2012 când noii proprietari ai marilor hoteluri Diana şi Afrodita au reuşit să reabiliteze şi să repună în funcţiune aceste complexe hoteliere. De asemenea, Hotelul Roman face obiectul unui proiect de reabilitare iniţiat de noul proprietar, fiind reintrodus în circuitul turistic din anul 2010”.
\r\nCe se întâmplă cu proiectul „Planul Integrat de Dezvoltare Urbană al oraşului Băile Herculane” iniţiat de Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Turismului (MDRT) în parteneriat cu Programul Naţiunilor Unite pentru Dezvoltare (PNUD), proiect prezentat pe larg în paginile revistei Traveller Magazin? „Proiectul a fost încheiat de către echipa de experţi PNUD în vara acestui an, printr-un document final care se constituie într-un adevărat program strategic de dezvoltare a staţiunii până în anul 2020, când se prefigurează o revenire a staţiunii de pe Valea Cernei în familia europeană a staţiunilor balneare. Consiliul local a luat în discuţie acest important document, adoptându-l în şedinţa de la începutul lunii septembrie 2012. Urmează găsirea surselor de finanţare pentru toate proiectele incluse în documentul final, aici, un important cuvânt având MDRT” – ne-a mai declarat primarul staţiunii Băile Herculane. Referitor la urmările aceluiaşi „Plan Integrat de Dezvoltare Urbană” pentru cele trei locaţii – pilot beneficiare ale acestui important proiect: Băile Herculane, Borsec şi Sulina, am stat de vorbă şi cu şeful Departamentului Socio-economic de la PNUD. Mircea Mocanu ne-a precizat că „intenţia PNUD –ului este de a urmări implementarea acestui proiect şi de a pregăti o scrisoare oficială adresată Primului Ministru, semnată de Secretarul General al Organizaţiei Mondiale a Turismului şi Ambasadorul PNUD la Bucureşti, prin care se va prezenta o notă de informare cu privire la proiectul iniţiat în 2011, de MDRT în parteneriat cu PNUD şi primăriile din Băile Herculane, Borsec şi Sulina şi încheiat în vara anului 2012, cu rugămintea de a derula în continuare investiţiile în cele trei localităţi”
\r\nAlte proiecte aflate în portofoliul administraţiei publice locale, printre care şi implementarea Planului Integrat de Dezvoltare Urbană pentru Băile Herculane, vor constitui premize importante pentru renaşterea staţiunii de pe Valea Cernei şi pentru revenirea în marea familie a staţiunilor balneare europene acolo unde strălucea în veacul al XIX-lea.

TURIŞTI LA HERCULANE SE COACE CEVA !

Oraşul de pe coasta de vest a Americii continuă să se bucure de aceeaşi faimă… comercială dar şi promoţională. Nu întâmplător Las Vegas este cunoscut ca “oraşul care nu doarme niciodată”. Pentru că dacă ar “aţipi” doar câteva ore şi-ar ieşi din ritm şi nu ar mai putea primi anual circa 37 de milioane de turişti. Nu ar fi putut să-şi construiască hoteluri-cazinou luxoase cu oferta “umilitoare” pentru orice european – circa 150.000 de camere. Credeţi-ne cifra este corectă, fiind vizată de Las Vegas Convention & Visitors Authority. Aceeaşi sursă mai precizează că oraşul din inima deşertul Mojave (statul Nevada) înregistrează cea mai rapidă creştere din America de Nord, cu aproximativ 80 ari de pământ construiţi la fiecare 24 de ore. Cei mai mulţi turişti sosesc aici fascinaţi de câştigurile posibile la jocurile de noroc sau pentru a se căsători, locul fiind renumit pentru cele mai rapide şi numeroase cununii civile. Oficiale ori doar simbolice, toate fac parte din spectacolul fără sfârşit al turismului. Dar lucrurile s-au schimbat cu o viteză ameţitoare în ultimul deceniu.

El se alătură, în aceeaşi galerie, metropolei Chicago, considerat cel mai mare oraş fondat în secolul XIX. Jocurile de noroc sunt legalizate de abia în 1931. Şi de atunci spectacolul care are ca pornire zona istorică a oraşului – Freemont Street – continuă reamintind de mari artişti care au dat strălucire locului – de la Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley până la formaţiile de rock, pop, metal, tehno şi country, ori super-spectacolele de balet, cabaret şi circ de azi.

Dan Penciu, directorul general al companiei TravelMaker spune că produsul lansat a prins foarte repede mai ales datorită deschiderii spre colaborare manifestată de către o mare parte din managerii a peste 20 de hoteluri din Capitală.

Studiile prezentate au adus în prim plan tineri captivaţi de acest domeniu care nu se supune niciunei mode, din Spania (FAEY), Ungaria (CTRDA), România (INCDT) etc. Bugetul proiectului a fost de 177.561 de euro, dintre care 133.171 de euro contribuţia CE.','„TWO CASTLES IN ONE DAY” - un succes, EVENIMENTE nr. 105','','publish','open','open','','two-castles-in-one-day-un-succes-evenimente-nr-105','','','2013-02-06 03:05:38','2013-02-06 01:05:38','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=1804',0,'post','',0),(1766,1,'2013-01-14 04:12:06','2013-01-14 02:12:06','CASTELUL BRAN e vecin cu Triunghiul Bermudelor \r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Bran3.jpg\" "\\"Bran3\\"")
\r\n\r\nÎntr-un Top 10 al celor mai înspăimântătoare destinaţii de Halloween (sărbătoare de origine celtică) dat publicităţii de site-ul Hotwire.com şi preluat de cotidianul DailyMail, Castelul Bran ocupă poziţia 9, alături de zone şi oraşe care au acumulat un asemenea capital de imagine de-a lungul secolelor. Realizatorii topului scriu despre reputaţia lui Vlad Ţepes astfel: “Deşi nu se credea despre el că este un vampir, inumana lui sete de sânge a fost elementul declanşator pentru romanul lui Bram Stoker “Dracula”. Poate nu ai nevoie de usturoi şi ţepuşe când vizitezi Castelul Bran din Transilvania (România), dar adevărul terifiant despre groaznicul prinţ Vlad te va face cu siguranţă să te uiţi în spatele tău când vizitezi castelul”.

El ar fi bântuit, printre altele de stafiile lui Marilyn Monroe şi Montgomery Clift care au fost zărite la Roosevelt Hotel, dar şi de alte fantome ce \"locuiesc\" în Grauman\'s Chinese Theatre.

La Murighiol, în Delta Dunării (judeţul Tulcea), a intrat în circuitul turistic „Puflene Resort”, un complex turistic de 4 stele, care oferă însă servicii superioare acestei clasificări. El a fost edificat de omul de afaceri Mihai Puflene, proprietar şi al altor structuri de primire. Investiţia se întinde pe 7,5 hectare şi are o suprafaţă construită de 12.000 de metri pătraţi. Prin finalizarea ei au intrat în circuit 300 de locuri de cazare, în hotel şi 16 vile, un restaurant, bar, Trattoria şi zonă Barbeque, 5 săli de conferinţă, o sală multifuncţională pentru biliard, tenis de masă, un centru Spa (cu salon de înfrumuseţare, saună, masaj, jacuzzi, dar şi cu o salină unicat), o sală de fitness, piscine interioară (olimpică) şi exterioară, terenuri de tenis, fotbal, baschet, volei, prevăzute cu instalaţie noctură etc. „Complexul pe care l-am construit redimensionează oferta turistică din Delta Dunării.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Puflene-Resort-112.jpg\" "\\"Puflene")
\r\n\r\nAm dorit să-l specializăm de la început în oferirea de servicii pentru vizitatorii aflaţi în vacanţe sau în zile libere la sfârşit de săptămână, care vin la noi pentru recreere şi relaxare, distracţie şi divertisment, întâlniri şi conferinţe de afaceri. Serviciile noastre sunt destinate în special turiştilor care doresc să evadeze din spaţiul cotidian, să descopere natura Deltei Dunării, să practice sporturi precum înotul şi pescuitul -, dar şi companiilor interesate să organizeze team-building-uri, seminari de pregătire, întâlniri ale echipelor de afaceri ori sportive. Cum aici ne situăm într-un un nod turistic, de la Puflene Resort avem posibilitatea de a oferi turiştilor plimbări cu ambarcaţiunile în diverse locuri mirifice ale Deltei, printre care se numără Sfântu Gheorghe, lacurile Uzlina ori Razelm. După primele două luni de operare putem spune că am constatat un grad ridicat de satisfacţie în rândul clienţilor noştri. Atât individuali cât şi corporate. Au apărut şi primii turişti străini.

\r\n
În urmă cu şapte ani puţini au crezut că acest proiect va sta în picioare. Că va rezista. Este vorba de infotrip-ul intern, pe tematică balneară, organizat ediţii la rând, în postură de „solist”, de către agenţia Accent Travel & Events, pentru partenerii de business şi revânzătorii săi. Pe atunci bătaia peştelui era la outgoing.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Buzias-Hotel-phoenix-conference-hall.jpg\" "\\"Buzias")
Cum români au început să se mai uite şi după atracţiile interne, agenţiile de turism au devenit mai interesate de acest segment care s-a dovedit a fi din ce în ce mai vandabil. Lucian Boronea, liderul echipei Accent a crezut în proiect. Faptul că el este viabil este marcat şi de aderenţa la grup a unor editori şi jurnalişti de travel, printre care şi revista Traveller Magazin, iar la ediţia recent încheiată de apariţia în ecuaţia evenimentului a încă doi parteneri grei: Transilvania Travel şi Paralela 45.
\r\nE ceva de văzut în staţiunile balneare? În mod sigur. Dacă auziţi pe unii bătând apa în piuă pe la televizor cum că sunt toate în paragină, daţi pe alt canal că e depăşit de realitate. Am fost martorii, şi suntem în continuare, al unei revoluţii a investiţiilor în multe din aceste staţiuni. Suntem odată cu ele şi martorii schimbării opticii şi a percepţiei în ceea ce priveşte clientela bazelor balneare. Ponderea celor vârstnici începe să scadă în favoarea celor cu vârste medii şi a tinerilor. Aceste categorii selectează un alt tip de servicii care le permite să se păstreze în formă, să se întreţină, într-un cuvânt să se menţină apţi de viaţă şi muncă. A, că am fi dorit, ca lucrurile să se întâmple mai repede şi mai vizibil, asta-i altă poveste.\r\n\r\nSe întâmplă asta în România? Hai să vedem! Am pornit în documentare înfometaţi de noutăţi. În staţiunea Buziaş (Judeţul Timiş) am găsit una de proporţii. Până la sfârşitul anului va intra în circuitul turistic local, primul hotel de 4 stele. Unul nou, nouţ. Complexul Phoenix Conference & Spa, care este amenajat pe o structură de 3 etaje, va oferi 43 de camere duble, 2 apartamente, restaurant cu specific internaţional cu o capacitate de 65 de locuri, bar, wireless. Punctele forte ale noii investiţii ce aparţine Societăţii balneare Buziaş SA, a cărui principal acţionar este Societatea de Investiţii Financiare – SIF Transilvania, sunt un mare Centru de conferinţe cu 300 de locuri, dotat instalaţii moderne şi parcare proprie, precum şi Centrul Spa (în care pot fi urmate şedinţe de hidromasaj, drenaj limfatic, masaj anticelulitic, saună, fitness, piscină acoperită). „Investiţia este o provocare pentru cei care vin să se întreţină la Buziaş. Ea a demarat în 2008. În total s-au alocat aici peste 6 milioane de euro, proveniţi din resurse proprii, credite bancare şi profitul reinvestit de către SIF Transilvania. Hotelul este amplasat la liziera parcului central şi beneficiază de o privelişte deosebită, de linişte şi aer curat. Pot spune încă de pe acum că el va contribui la diversificarea ofertei de întreţinere nu numai pe sementul cardiovascular şi de punere în formă. Segmentul care va creşte va fi fără îndoială cel al turismului de evenimente şi conferinţe” - ne-a precizat Sorin Munteanu, directorul companiei balneare.\r\n\r\nInterlocutorul nostru n-a scăpat ocazia de a ne prezenta şi celelalte schimbări. Hotelul Parc, în urmă cu câţiva ani de zile un complex obosit, activează azi la un nivel de 3 stele. Un alt hotel, dedicat în întregime celor care vin la tratament prin CNPAS, este Timiş, cu un confort satisfăcător la nivelul de 2 stele. Baza de tratament e strălucitoare ca un patinoar, iar pacienţii se bucură se serviciile unei echipe tinere care se individualizează în peisajul medical balnear. Directorul medical Cristian Bodescu nu scapă ocazia de a sublinia că toate echipamentele sunt moderne şi performante dar şi de a ne reaminti câteva repere istorice care individualizează staţiunea. Prima atestare documentară a locului datează din 1805. În 1811 a fost consemnat primul sezon balnear. În 1819 Buziaşul a fost declarată localitate balneară iar în 1903 se făceau cure externe pentru bolile cardiovasculare. Prin anii ‘70- ’80, veneau la tratament, pe serie, circa 2-3.000. Acum vin de ordinul sutelor. Iar sejururile s-au redus. Optimismul vine dinspre turismul de business şi conferinţe, care se desfăşoară deja în noua sală de evenimente. Astfel se încearcă a se instaura ideea că în turismul balnear nu există sezon şi extrasezon. Lucru perfect adevărat. Din 2005 se lucrează la promovarea acestei noi imagini. Un sprijin important îl constituie şi Ştrandul Termal despre ale cărui calităţi naturale se mai spune că „poţi intra cu paharul de vin în mână şi când ieşi şpriţul e făcut!”.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Buzias-hotel-parc.jpg\" "\\"Buzias")
\r\nApoi mai trebuie să spunem că la Buziaş se află singura mofetă din Vestul României. Se bucură de mare căutare nu numai din partea celor cu afecţiuni cardiace ci şi din a celor care sunt în căutarea Viagrei naturale româneşti. S-a dus vorba că se găseşte şi aici. Bref! Punctele forte ale staţiunii sunt: apa minerală (poate nu ştiaţi că zăcământul de apă carbogazoasă este unic în Europa), mofeta, respectiv bioclimatul specific. Doctorul Bodescu nu a scăpat ocazia să ne vorbească despre rostul Arteriograph-ului, unul dintre cele două aparate care se află în zona Banatului, foarte exact şi util, în analiza vârstei reale a organismului şi arterelor noastre. Important, doar ni se vorbeşte în „Buziaş – staţiunea inimi tale!”.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Buzias-Director-Sorin-Munteanu.jpg\" "\\"Buzias")
TOP MANAGEMENT\r\nAlte două schimbări de gardă
\r\nLa Hotelul InterContinental din Bucureşti a apărut un nou general manager, în persoana lui Ştefan Frank, care l-a înlocuit pe Marten Schoenrock. Frank are o experienţă vastă în industria ospitalităţii şi 21 de ani de experienţă în lanţul InterContinental Hotels Group. A activat ca Resident Manager la InterContinental Frankfurt, conducând hotelul şi din punct de vedere operational.\r\n\r\nDe asemenea, de luna trecută Le Boutique Hotel Moxa a făcut o achiziţie importantă. Noul său manager este Graţiela Bădicu. După o experienţă de peste 15 ani acumulată în hoteluri de brand internaţional de 4 şi 5 stele din Bucureşti (Sofitel, Centre Ville Aparthotel ori Howard Johnson Grand Plaza), ea s-a hotărât să îşi asume o nouă provocare încărcată cu alte valori.
\r\nPROIECTE ÎN MIŞCARE\r\nVolumetric schimbă macazul
\r\nSpaniolii de la compania Volumetric, controlată de familia catalană Sans-Domenech, au anunţat că îşi vor reorienta investiţiile rezidenţiale. Ca urmare ei au oprit un proiect programat la Piteşti după ce un lanţ hotelier internaţional s-a arătat interesat de construcţia unui hotel de patru stele. Surse din piaţă spun că ar fi vorba de un DoubleTree by Marriott. Ibericii au în proprietate un teren în suprafaţă de 4.000 de metri pătraţi lângă Parcul Găvana din Piteşti, pe care intenţionau să construiască un ansamblu rezidenţial cu 110 apartamente. “Discuţiile sunt pentru un parteneriat de dezvoltare urmat de un contract de administrare din partea operatorului hotelier” - a anunţat Dan Fleşariu, directorul general al Volumetric România.
\r\nCourtyard mai aşteaptă
\r\nFostul fotbalist Gica Popescu a declarat că lucrările de construcţie la hotelul de 4 stele Courtyard by Marriott, programate iniţial să înceapă în luna iulie, au fost amânate până în primăvara lui 2013. Motivul îl reprezintă finanţarea. Deocamdată nu a fost semnat un contract pentru un credit bancar, care ar fi trebuit să asigure jumătate din investiţie. Popescu a mai precizat că sunt în curs de derulare negocieri cu trei instituţii bancare.\r\nCourtyard Marriott Bucharest Hotel va fi amplasat în sectorul 1, pe un teren din apropierea vechii clădiri a Primăriei. El va beneficia de o bună poziţionare faţă de centrul oraşului şi va fi operat pe baza unui contract de management direct, anunţat de oficialii companiei Trend Hospitality. Investiţia e cotată la circa 20 de milioane de euro. Hotelul va activa la categoria de 4 stele şi va pune la dispoziţie 146 de camere, 4 săli de conferinţă, bar, spa şi spaţii comerciale.
\r\nDISTINCŢII\r\nIosefin – premiu de la Booked.net
\r\nEchipa ApartHotel Iosefin Residence Timişoara, a primit o nouă recunoaştere internaţională. Ea a fost oferită cu ocazia decernării Hotel Awards 2012 Booked.net. Nicu Ţone, managerul complexului ne-a declarat că acesta a fost desemnat drept “Romania Hotel Awards 2012 Best Family”. Distincţia confirmă calitatea serviciilor prestate de acest hotel şi se alătură nominalizărilor din ultimii doi ani, printre care “Very Clean Hotel by Venere.com the world” (2011),”Rising star manager al anului într-un hotel (2012) etc.
\r\nDIFICULTĂŢI\r\nUnita n-o duce prea bine
\r\nJosef Goschy, proprietarul Unita Turism, încearcă fără succes de câţiva ani să vândă 10 din cele 25 de hoteluri pe care le deţine în ţară. Până acum nu au apărut ofertanţi interesaţi. Acum omul de afaceri român îşi pune speranţele în vânzarea pe piaţa internaţională, gândindu-se la China, Rusia ori Ţările arabe. Un exemplu al eşecului în tranzacţii îl reprezintă Complexul Amfiteatru-Belvedere-Panoramic din staţiunea Neptun-Olimp, pentru care s-a cerut iniţial 60 de milioane de euro. Cândva fanion al litoralului românesc şi al staţiunii Neptun, el a fost declasificat la 2 stele, iar o parte a construcţiei se află în paragină. Goschy a declarat că de pe urma acestor vânzări speră să obţină resurse financiare pentru a renova complexele pe care le va păstra în portofoliu. Firma Unita Turism are în operare 25 de hoteluri cu peste 3.500 de camere.

La Inter şi Moxa s-a schimbat managementul. Gică Popescu se gândeşte la primăvara lui 2013 în timp ce la Buziaş se naşte un... Phoenix de 4 stele.
\nINTRARE PE PIAŢĂ\n„Puflene Resort” - un complex de superclasă\n\n
La Murighiol, în Delta Dunării (judeţul Tulcea), a intrat în circuitul turistic „Puflene Resort”, un complex turistic de 4 stele, care oferă însă servicii superioare acestei clasificări. El a fost edificat de omul de afaceri Mihai Puflene, proprietar şi al altor structuri de primire. Investiţia se întinde pe 7,5 hectare şi are o suprafaţă construită de 12.000 de metri pătraţi. Prin finalizarea ei au intrat în circuit 300 de locuri de cazare, în hotel şi 16 vile, un restaurant, bar, Trattoria şi zonă Barbeque, 5 săli de conferinţă, o sală multifuncţională pentru biliard, tenis de masă, un centru Spa (cu salon de înfrumuseţare, saună, masaj, jacuzzi, dar şi cu o salină unicat), o sală de fitness, piscine interioară (olimpică) şi exterioară, terenuri de tenis, fotbal, baschet, volei, prevăzute cu instalaţie noctură etc. „Complexul pe care l-am construit redimensionează oferta turistică din Delta Dunării.\n\n\nAm dorit să-l specializăm de la început în oferirea de servicii pentru vizitatorii aflaţi în vacanţe sau în zile libere la sfârşit de săptămână, care vin la noi pentru recreere şi relaxare, distracţie şi divertisment, întâlniri şi conferinţe de afaceri. Serviciile noastre sunt destinate în special turiştilor care doresc să evadeze din spaţiul cotidian, să descopere natura Deltei Dunării, să practice sporturi precum înotul şi pescuitul -, dar şi companiilor interesate să organizeze team-building-uri, seminari de pregătire, întâlniri ale echipelor de afaceri ori sportive. Cum aici ne situăm într-un un nod turistic, de la Puflene Resort avem posibilitatea de a oferi turiştilor plimbări cu ambarcaţiunile în diverse locuri mirifice ale Deltei, printre care se numără Sfântu Gheorghe, lacurile Uzlina ori Razelm. După primele două luni de operare putem spune că am constatat un grad ridicat de satisfacţie în rândul clienţilor noştri. Atât individuali cât şi corporate. Au apărut şi primii turişti străini. Este foarte clar că ne adresăm unei clientele exigente care va căuta şi aprecia ca atare serviciile de clasă înaltă”- ne-a declarat Mihai Puflene.
BUZIAŞ va avea un... Phoenix de 4 stele
\nÎn urmă cu şapte ani puţini au crezut că acest proiect va sta în picioare. Că va rezista. Este vorba de infotrip-ul intern, pe tematică balneară, organizat ediţii la rând, în postură de „solist”, de către agenţia Accent Travel & Events, pentru partenerii de business şi revânzătorii săi. Pe atunci bătaia peştelui era la outgoing.
\nCum români au început să se mai uite şi după atracţiile interne, agenţiile de turism au devenit mai interesate de acest segment care s-a dovedit a fi din ce în ce mai vandabil. Lucian Boronea, liderul echipei Accent a crezut în proiect. Faptul că el este viabil este marcat şi de aderenţa la grup a unor editori şi jurnalişti de travel, printre care şi revista Traveller Magazin, iar la ediţia recent încheiată de apariţia în ecuaţia evenimentului a încă doi parteneri grei: Transilvania Travel şi Paralela 45.
\nE ceva de văzut în staţiunile balneare? În mod sigur. Dacă auziţi pe unii bătând apa în piuă pe la televizor cum că sunt toate în paragină, daţi pe alt canal că e depăşit de realitate. Am fost martorii, şi suntem în continuare, al unei revoluţii a investiţiilor în multe din aceste staţiuni. Suntem odată cu ele şi martorii schimbării opticii şi a percepţiei în ceea ce priveşte clientela bazelor balneare. Ponderea celor vârstnici începe să scadă în favoarea celor cu vârste medii şi a tinerilor. Aceste categorii selectează un alt tip de servicii care le permite să se păstreze în formă, să se întreţină, într-un cuvânt să se menţină apţi de viaţă şi muncă. A, că am fi dorit, ca lucrurile să se întâmple mai repede şi mai vizibil, asta-i altă poveste.\n\nSe întâmplă asta în România? Hai să vedem! Am pornit în documentare înfometaţi de noutăţi. În staţiunea Buziaş (Judeţul Timiş) am găsit una de proporţii. Până la sfârşitul anului va intra în circuitul turistic local, primul hotel de 4 stele. Unul nou, nouţ. Complexul Phoenix Conference & Spa, care este amenajat pe o structură de 3 etaje, va oferi 43 de camere duble, 2 apartamente, restaurant cu specific internaţional cu o capacitate de 65 de locuri, bar, wireless. Punctele forte ale noii investiţii ce aparţine Societăţii balneare Buziaş SA, a cărui principal acţionar este Societatea de Investiţii Financiare – SIF Transilvania, sunt un mare Centru de conferinţe cu 300 de locuri, dotat instalaţii moderne şi parcare proprie, precum şi Centrul Spa (în care pot fi urmate şedinţe de hidromasaj, drenaj limfatic, masaj anticelulitic, saună, fitness, piscină acoperită). „Investiţia este o provocare pentru cei care vin să se întreţină la Buziaş.

\nTOP MANAGEMENT\nAlte două schimbări de gardă
\nLa Hotelul InterContinental din Bucureşti a apărut un nou general manager, în persoana lui Ştefan Frank, care l-a înlocuit pe Marten Schoenrock. Frank are o experienţă vastă în industria ospitalităţii şi 21 de ani de experienţă în lanţul InterContinental Hotels Group. A activat ca Resident Manager la InterContinental Frankfurt, conducând hotelul şi din punct de vedere operational.\nDe asemenea, de luna trecută Le Boutique Hotel Moxa a făcut o achiziţie importantă.

\nPROIECTE ÎN MIŞCARE\nVolumetric schimbă macazul
\nSpaniolii de la compania Volumetric, controlată de familia catalană Sans-Domenech, au anunţat că îşi vor reorienta investiţiile rezidenţiale. Ca urmare ei au oprit un proiect programat la Piteşti după ce un lanţ hotelier internaţional s-a arătat interesat de construcţia unui hotel de patru stele.

Motivul îl reprezintă finanţarea. Deocamdată nu a fost semnat un contract pentru un credit bancar, care ar fi trebuit să asigure jumătate din investiţie. Popescu a mai precizat că sunt în curs de derulare negocieri cu trei instituţii bancare.\nCourtyard Marriott Bucharest Hotel va fi amplasat în sectorul 1, pe un teren din apropierea vechii clădiri a Primăriei. El va beneficia de o bună poziţionare faţă de centrul oraşului şi va fi operat pe baza unui contract de management direct, anunţat de oficialii companiei Trend Hospitality. Investiţia e cotată la circa 20 de milioane de euro. Hotelul va activa la categoria de 4 stele şi va pune la dispoziţie 146 de camere, 4 săli de conferinţă, bar, spa şi spaţii comerciale.
\nDISTINCŢII\nIosefin – premiu de la Booked.net
\nEchipa ApartHotel Iosefin Residence Timişoara, a primit o nouă recunoaştere internaţională. Ea a fost oferită cu ocazia decernării Hotel Awards 2012 Booked.net. Nicu Ţone, managerul complexului ne-a declarat că acesta a fost desemnat drept “Romania Hotel Awards 2012 Best Family”. Distincţia confirmă calitatea serviciilor prestate de acest hotel şi se alătură nominalizărilor din ultimii doi ani, printre care “Very Clean Hotel by Venere.com the world” (2011),”Rising star manager al anului într-un hotel (2012) etc.
\nDIFICULTĂŢI\nUnita n-o duce prea bine
\nJosef Goschy, proprietarul Unita Turism, încearcă fără succes de câţiva ani să vândă 10 din cele 25 de hoteluri pe care le deţine în ţară. Până acum nu au apărut ofertanţi interesaţi. Acum omul de afaceri român îşi pune speranţele în vânzarea pe piaţa internaţională, gândindu-se la China, Rusia ori Ţările arabe. Un exemplu al eşecului în tranzacţii îl reprezintă Complexul Amfiteatru-Belvedere-Panoramic din staţiunea Neptun-Olimp, pentru care s-a cerut iniţial 60 de milioane de euro. Cândva fanion al litoralului românesc şi al staţiunii Neptun, el a fost declasificat la 2 stele, iar o parte a construcţiei se află în paragină. Goschy a declarat că de pe urma acestor vânzări speră să obţină resurse financiare pentru a renova complexele pe care le va păstra în portofoliu. Firma Unita Turism are în operare 25 de hoteluri cu peste 3.500 de camere.

Turişti nu prea sunt în zonă dar preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean Cluj, Horea Vioreanu, pledează pentru Cluj cu mult respect şi convingere. El a prezentat, în conferinţa de presă, proiectele privind dezvoltarea viitoare a judeţului: ambiţia cea mai mare a Clujului este ca oraşul să devină capitală Culturală europeană în 2020.\r\n\r\n\r\nUnde stăm şi ce gustăm?\r\nS-o luăm uşor, ardeleneşte!

La acest capitol oraşul este competitiv, având hoteluri şi pensiuni care aşteaptă cu porţile deschise. „Grand Hotel Napoca a trecut printr-un program de modernizare de 7,5 milioane de euro” - ne-a spus proprietarul său Petre Ghiran. În prezent hotelul, cel mai mare din Cluj, cu 166 de camere, deţine şi cel mai mare centru de conferinţe din Transilvania, cu o capacitate maximă de 4000 locuri! La fel de bine se prezintă, la alte dimensiuni, hotelul Univers T. „El a fost redat circuitului turistic anul acesta, după o renovare ce a necesitat 3,5 milioane euro” a spus Brânduşa Mândru, directoarea complexului. Lista poate continua cu Golden Tulip Ana Dome, Hotel ARY, Hotel Opera Plaza.\r\n\r\nCe mai vrea orice turist? Păi, să mănânce cât mai bine! Aici lista pare nesfârşită dar am selectat trei locaţii absolut deosebite. Pentru cină încercaţi localul tradiţional din hotelul Restaurant Agape: bucate alese, un mix gastronomic specific ardelenesc şi oameni primitori. Un prânz ales trebuie servit la restaurantul Via, în inima oraşului, ascuns pe o străduţă în spatele clădirii fostului hotel Continental (azi din păcate în paragină!). Via este un local intim, foarte simplu şi elegant, cu o bucătărie de excepţie. Rezultatul? Mănânci ca un prinţ! „Confit din pulpe de raţă” şi un desert „Decadence” fac furori printre gurmanzi! Iar dacă vreţi să ascultaţi nişte lăutari autentici, al căror nume a devenit renume, mergeţi seara la... Sinaia. Restaurantul Sinaia. Pentru o cafea cu poveste vă recomand să vă suiţi în dealul Clujului la restaurantul Da Vinci. Amplasat într-o oază de verdeaţă cu căsuţe pentru păsări în copaci, oferă o vedere relaxantă către dealurile ce împrejmuiesc oraşul. Cafeaua, prăjitura şi paharul de şampanie servite aici vor avea gustul echilibrat, perfect, al lucrului bine făcut.\r\n\r\nSe bucură ochii şi sufletul\r\nCe poate face un turist în afara Clujului? Obligatoriu se începe cu un sejur în zona montană Beliş, în Apuseni, o drumeţie la Cascada Vălul Miresei, sau la Cheile Turzii. Cele din urmă sunt vizitate anual de peste 100.000 de turişti. Pensiunile din zonă sunt numeroase şi ţinând cont că oferă facilităţi moderne de cazare, nu le evitaţi. Încercaţi, la Beliş, un gulaş cu afumătură de mistreţ! Sau, la micul dejun, un balmoş cu bureţi! Pensiunea Meridian vă poate potoli pofta, la fel şi pensiunile Doru sau Georgiana.\r\n\r\nNu vreţi la munte? Atunci alegeţi complexul muzeal de la Ciucea, Castelul şi casa memorială Octavian Goga.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Cluj-7.jpg\" "\\"Cluj")
\r\nEste un loc legat în eternitate de memoria a doi mari poeţi şi prieteni: Octavian Goga şi Ady Endre. Octavian Goga a achiziţionat domeniul (cu un parc imens) de la văduva poetului, în anii 1920 şi i-a dat o viaţă aparte. Soţia sa, Veturia, a avut în grijă proprietatea (transformată în muzeu în anii 60) şi i-a păstrat aerul de eleganţă familială. Încărcătura spirituală este benefică, veţi pleca mai buni şi mai frumoşi din acest loc. La îndemână vă este Castelul Banffy de la Bonţida, aflat în plin proces de resurscitare prin grija fundaţiei Transilvania Trust. Te aşteaptă o atmosferă romantică în cel mai frumos ansamblu castelar din Transilvania – o ruină care se va transforma într-un centru cultural.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Cluj8.jpg\" "\\"Cluj8\\"")
\r\nNu degeaba locul a fost comparat cu Versailles, complexul apărând cu o structură impresionantă, de la curtea de onoare până la parc, grajduri şi turle. Merită apoi să faceţi o pauză de masă la cabana Leghia ca să vă răsfăţaţi cerul gurii cu aroma bucatelor locale.\r\n\r\nUnii spun că perla coroanei în turismul clujean este Salina Turda, pe care deja am prezentat-o în revista noastră. Alţii sunt de părere că nu poţi pleca din judeţ fără să te închini la icoana făcătoare de minuni de la Mănăstirea Nicula. Legenda ţesută în jurul ei spune o frumoasă poveste despre românism, credinţă, supravieţuire şi speranţă. Pictată de un ţăran în secolul al XVII-lea ea ar fi lăcrimat zile în şir, venind să i se închine credincioşi de toate riturile.\r\n\r\nCât despre cumpărături vă recomand să achiziţionaţi mărfuri cu eticheta „Produs de Cluj”: pantofi Clujana, cartofi de Râşca, brânză Năsal, ceapa roşie de Turda. Acestea sunt, după cum ne-a declarat Ramona Moldovan, preşedinta Asociaţiei „Produs de Cluj” cele mai cunoscute branduri locale ce vor fi promovate în ţară dar şi afară. Dacă v-am trezit interesul, găsiţi-vă pentru o minivacanţă în zona Clujului. Este o şansă în plus să constataţi cât de frumoasă este România şi cât de neştiutori suntem. Ca să iubeşti trebuie să cunoşti! Faceţi efortul! Merită!\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\nFoto: FLORIN ARJOCU (drumliber.ro)

TULCEA – TURISMUL SE NAŞTE ÎN FIECARE ZI
\r\nChiar dacă n-o să credeţi în ultimele două decenii Tulcea, cât o fi el de cunoscut ca oraş cu un mare potenţial natural, nu a avut un album de promovare turistică. Cineva trebuia să vină cu o asemenea iniţiativă, care să îmbine aportul financiar public cu cel privat.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Tulcea-acvariu-318.jpg\" "\\"Tulcea")
\r\nŞi evenimentul s-a întâmplat. În urmă cu o lună Asociaţia Force Tourism, cu o experienţă consistentă în promovarea unor cataloage de destinaţie, am numit publicaţia Force Tourism, a lansat albumul „Tulcea în imagini”. După cum spunea Beatrice Chiriac, preşedintele Asociaţiei „pentru noi a fost o provocare. Nu am mai editat şi produs un asemenea suport până acum. Lucrarea conţine peste o sută de fotografii retro şi prezente, care pun în valoare atracţiile naturale, culturale şi turistice ale oraşului. Într-o primă fază am tipărit în condiţii foarte bune 3.000 de exemplare. Albumul este un bun vector de promovare iar ţinta de informare a acestuia este atât turistul român cât şi cel străin. De aceea textul cunoaşte alături de versiunea română şi pe cele engleză şi germană. Albumul este însoţit şi de un mini ghid al oraşului în care sunt listate opoturnităţile de cazare, de turism cultural şi istoric. Cel de-al doilea se distribuie gratuit.”\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Tulcea-primar-Constantin-Hogea-060.jpg\" "\\"Tulcea")
\r\nLa evenimentul care a marcat lansarea albumului Constantin Hogea, primarul municipiului a subliniat că proiectul care s-a materializat este o dorinţă mai veche a domniei sale. „Am privit mulţi ani la rând cu mare invidie la oraşe mai mici cu un potenţial turistic sub cel al Tulcei, care au găsit resurse şi parteneri în editarea unor materiale de promovare turistică, pe care noi nu le-am avut până de curând. Mai ales că în Tulcea sunt investiţii serioase pe acest segment. Aş putea spune că municipiul nostru nu este doar un oraş turistic de tranzit, ci şi un loc de care poţi să îţi aminteşti cu plăcere, unde poţi înopta într-unul dintre cele 8 hoteluri elegante sau în una dintre cele 15 pensiuni şi poţi admira ceea ce poate oferi un oraş cu o istorie veche, cu o aşezare geografică interesantă, aflat într-una dintre cele mai frumoase provincii româneşti aşa cum este de altfel întreaga Dobroge”.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Tulcea-Retro0021.jpg\" "\\"Tulcea")
\r\nPe bună dreptate Tulcea nu este doar o fascinantă poartă spre Delta Dunării. Sau doar unul dintre cele mai vechi oraşe atestate de pe teritoriul românesc. În două zile am realizat un slalom printre noile atracţii ale oraşului. Nu ai timp să te plictiseşti. Dacă vrei să trăieşti istoria şi prezentul atracţiilor deltaice mergi neapărat la Muzeul Ecoturistic Delta Dunării. Este unul dintre cele mai frumoase de acest gen din Europa. A fost deschis în urmă cu câţiva ani dar colecţiile sale au fost organizate cu susţinerea financiară provenită dintr-un proiect transfrontalier româno-ucrainean. El sintetizează munca a generaţii de muzeografi care şi-au pus priceperea la dispoziţie pe parcursul a peste 50 de ani. Diorame, pelicani, peşti, căprioare, mistreţi împăiaţi, tradiţii locale concentrate într-o cherhana pescărească, toate vorbesc despre o luma care a fost şi...încă mai este. Nu rata vizitarea Acvariului care este o atracţie de top nu numai prin speciile de peşti ci şi datorită colecţiilor de corali. De acolo te poţi îndrepta spre Muzeul de Artă, recent reorganizat în Conacul Paşei, palat construit între 1863-1865. El a fost complet renovat în cadrul proiectului „Restaurarea şi reabilitarea a două clădirii de patrimoniu din municipiul Tulcea incluse în circuitele turistice regionale”, derulat de Consiliul Judeţean Tulcea. Muzeul valorifică o serie de colecţii de pictură, sculptură, icoane, artă orientală - cum altfel, doar ne aflăm într-un spaţiu multicultural -, grafică şi artă decorativă. De acolo puteţi continua încărcarea bateriile prin cultură frecventând o altă clădire cu valoare istorică. E vorba de Casa Avramide, ce a aparţinut unui prosper întreprinzător local, armatorul Alexe Avramide.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Tulcea-Retroscan0008.jpg\" "\\"Tulcea")
\r\nConstruită în secolul al XIX-lea ea găzduieşte azi Casa Colecţiilor. După un amplu program de reconstruire şi recuperare a elementelor de arhitectură interioară aparţinând unor meşteri italieni, ea s-a transformat într-un spaţiu activ ce găzduieşte evenimente culturale, concerte, lansări de carte etc. Merită să ascultaţi fascinanta poveste a propietarului şi a moştenitorilor lui. Cultură este însă şi gastronomia, şi pentru că am vrut să testăm unul dintre hotelurile de care amintea primarul Constantin Hogea, am optat pentru o masă pescărească la Hotelul Esplanada. Merită să treceţi şi pe aici pentru a înţelege ceva din farmecul investiţiei făcute de Gheorghe Puflene, în acest complex de 4 stele. Patronul e mai tot timpul acolo dar prezenţa lui este extrem de discretă. Face parte dintr-o familie de investitori în turism, pionieri care trăiesc cu speranţa că această industrie va deveni din ce în ce mai profitabilă. Speranţa nu moare niciodată. După cum se vede nici la Tulcea.

Finala, dublată de o excelentă Seara de Gală, a fost organizată, conform tradiţiei de Federaţia Bucătarilor din România, şi a înglobat într-un singur eveniment arta culinară, caritatea, muzica, dansul şi arta fotografică.\n\nCele patru echipe calificate din semifinală au încântat invitaţii cu bucate inspirate din bucătăria românească, pregatite însă într-o manieră modernă. Bran Arpad de la Buffalo Steak House, Ivan Florin Marian de la Casa Mediterana, Dobre Alexandru de la Casa Doina şi Lazăr Cristian de la Grand Hotel Continental au demonstrat că arta culinară autohtonă este versatilă, gustoasă şi încântă privirile. Au mai pregătit câte 8 meniuri reprezentanţii gazdelor, bucătarii de la Casa Doina “La Parc”, echipa naţională olimpică de juniori a României, condusă de Dragos Bercea şi câştigatorul ediţiei anterioare, Eugen Grosu. Juriul a fost format din chefi şi gastronomi de talie: Wynand Vogel, Henrik Sebok, Cornelia Ghişoi, David Contant, Maria Popa şi Ion Toma. Dupa cinci ore de muncă şi analiză comparată juriul a stabilit următoarea ierarhie. Marele Trofeu “Bucătarul de Aur al Bucureştiului” a revenit lui Lazăr Cristian (cu ajutorul său Iulian Chivu) de la Grand Hotel Continental. Ivan Florin Marian şi Milosi Alexandru s-au clasat pe locul 2 fiind urmaţi Dobre Alexandru şi Ionuţ Brăteanu - locul 3, respectiv Brad Arpad şi Daniela Zgimbău, locul 4.\n\nSeara a fost „colorată” cu momente artistice susţinute de formaţia Five O’clock, de reprezentaţii de dans, dar şi de o licitaţie de fotografii realizate pentru a omagia munca ţăranului român. Iniţiatorul proiectului, Chef-ul francez David Contant, doreşte prin acest proiect să scoată în evidenţă bogăţia şi diversitatea artei culinare româneşti cu puternice rădăcini în tradiţie. Momente au fost prezentate de Romana Rista, o pasionată a gastronomiei. Întregul spectacol realizat la concursul “Bucătarul de Aur al Bucureştiului” i-a avut beneficiari pe copiii de la Asociaţia Sfântul Stelian. Toti banii colectaţi din vânzarea meniurilor au fost donaţi acestei organizaţii care luptă pentru binele celor mici.

\r\n\r\nSă ne lămurim de la început. E greu să gestionezi sărăcia, căci asta facem acum, în timp ce am fi preferat, cui nu i-ar place, să administrăm bogăţia. Pe această linie s-au poziţionat speach-urile şi dezbaterile deschise de Sorin Oprescu, Primarul General al Bucureştiului. El s-a arătat onorat de susţinerea industriei hoteliere şi turistice în realizarea proiectelor administraţiei locale de a poziţiona cât mai rapid Capitala pe harta destinaţiilor demne de vizitat de călători din întreaga lume. De asemenea el a subliniat că în calitatea pe care o are de “Cel mai bun primar dintre doctori şi cel mai bun doctor dintre primari”, va răspunde prezent la orice parteneriat ori invitaţie formulate de către industrie. Oprescu a mai spus că una dintre priorităţile sale este repararea oraşului, a clădirilor de patrimoniu, a străzilor cartierelor istorice. În proiecţia sa Bucureştiul va deveni un oraş „destinat tinerilor din toată lumea”, făcând referire la transformările pline de culoare şi atmosferă ale Centrului Vechi.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Trend-Sorin-Oprescu.jpg\" "\\"Trend")

Thomas Emanuel, Director of Business Development la STR Global a arătat că , în septembrie 2012, o parte a segmentului hotelier a revenit la nivelul din 2008, vânzându-se 97 milioane de camere.

\r\n\r\nTrebuie mai mulţi bani lichizi\r\nLa capitolul tranzacţii realizate în 2012 Arlett Oehmichen, director al HVS Londra, a prezentat o analiză a situaţiei în Uniunea Europeană. Parisul şi Londra par a fi singurele oraşe „interesante pentru investitori”, cumpărându-se proprietăţi hoteliere de către firme din Asia şi Emiratele Arabe Unite. Anul curent arată „ o piaţă segmentată, nu europeană”, întrucât nu se poate discuta de tendinţe generale de achiziţii sau de tranzacţii similare în tot spaţiul UE. La rândul său Lukas Hochedlinger , Development manager la Christie+Co, a spus: „ nu văd nimic nou pentru încă 12 luni, dar după acerastă periodă ne aşteptăm la o creştere în tranzacţii”. În ce priveşte investiţiile hoteliere un studiu al KPMG Advisory Ltd. arată că, în majoritatea ţărilor est europene, piaţa stagnează. Dacă Polonia şi Cehia par a fi economii performante, România, Bulgaria, Ungaria, Slovenia şi Ţările Baltice fluctuează. Se discută chiar despre o nouă recesiune băncile nefiind dispuse să finanţeze noi proprietăţi iar dobânzile creditelor crescând uşor din 2010. „Există oportunităţi dar trebuie 100% cash” concluzionează situaţia Lukas Hochedlinger, Development manager la Christie+Co. Panos Paleologos, Development Director la Luxury Hotel Partners Ltd, mizează pe proprietăţile mici, pe hotelurile boutique. El a spus că o asemenea afacere poate fi de mare succes atâta timp cât „hotelul este văzut ca un teatru. Trebuie operare cu suflet deoarece până la urmă experienţa pe care o trăieşte clientul este importantă.” Thomas Emanuel, Director of Business Development la STR Global , mizează pe tururile de week-end pentru Bucureşti.

\r\nBusiness-ul se aseamănă cu valsul\r\nDincolo de cifre şi rapoarte business-ul are o latură emoţională care poate afecta pozitiv ori negativ o tanzacţie. Jeffrey F. Scott, managing consultant la PKF hotelexperts a apreciat printre tendinţele actuale în industria ospitalităţii se numără reamenajarea unor imobile de birouri în hoteluri şi concentrarea achiziţiilor în zona hotelurilor mici. O altă veste bună este că proprietarii tind să se instaleze într-un model de afacere în care tind să angajeze un management profesionist. Hotelurile boutique şi design sunt concepte diferite dar ambele fac parte din segmentul unităţilor mici, cu care este mai uşor de operat. Muntenegru este o piaţă interesantă sub acest aspect. Sub aspectul finanţărilor băncile ar trebui să-şi schimbe strategia. Ele vor fi nevoite să părăsească formatul practicat până acum şi să se implice în proiectul unui hotel de la fazele primare, chiar de la cea de planificare. Lucian Marinescu, Senior Associate Trend Hospitality, a arătat la rândul său, că insituţiile bancare văd în afiliere o garanţie pentru operarea hotelurilor. În studiul său despre piaţa românească 2013 va fi martorul a 32 de proiecte hoteliere, cererea va creşte cu 8% dar tranzacţiile vor rămâne la nivelul zero.\r\n\r\n5 pentru viitor \r\nÎn partea a doua a manifestării s-a desfăşurat Gala Hospitality Trends 2012.

ION GRUIA: „Fizioterapia Integrativă de la Herculane e un proiect ambiţios !”
\r\nPoate fi relansat turismul medical în staţiunile balneare? Profesorul Ion Gruia, care a revenit la Băile Herculane la 59 de ani oferă un răspuns concret şi pozitiv prin crearea Centrului de Tratament şi Institutul de Fizioterapie Integrativă din acest oraş. Domnia sa, un specialist de renume european în domeniul kinetoterapiei, colaborează de ani de zile cu instituţii medicale renumite din Europa şi SUA.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/aspecte-din-timpul-cursului-de-pregatire-teoretica.jpg\" "\\"aspecte")
\r\n\r\nLa una din întâlnirile cu comunitatea locală din staţiunea Băile Herculane, Nic Ţarălungă, Coordonatorul Naţional al echipei internaţionale de experţi PNUD care a lucrat la Planului Integrat de Dezvoltare Urbană, sublinia că unul din elementele esenţiale ale dezvoltării turistice a staţiunii este formarea resurselor umane şi în special a acelora implicate în sectorul medical. Un adevărat „proiect ancoră”, este „Centru de tratament şi Institut de Fizioterpie Integrativă la Băile Herculane”, dezvoltat de profesorul de kinetoterapie, Ion Gruia.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/aspecte-din-timpul-pregatirii-practice-a-cursantilor.jpg\" "\\"aspecte")
\r\n\r\nProfesorul Gruia a revenit la 59 de ani, la Băile Herculane, unde s-a confruntat, de-a lungul celor 12 ani în care a activat după terminarea facultăţii, cu o cazuistică diversă şi complexă. În staţiunea de pe Valea Cernei, de care se simte foarte legat, a început să-şi pună în aplicare cunoştinţele de specialitate şi experienţa acumulate în marile şcoli şi clinici europene. Ion Gruia ne expune succint proiectul său estimat la o valoare finală de 1,5 milioane de euro: „Principalele componente sunt cea terapeutică şi didactică. Proiectul se va derula pe etape. Am început deja partea didactică prin susţinerea cursurilor de perfecţionare pentru fizioterapeuţi şi formarea de specialişti în domeniul Fizioterapiei Integrative. În următoarea etapă, proiectul prevede construirea unui sediu propriu pentru funcţionarea unui Centru de tratament cu terapii balneo-fizio-integrative, artistice etc. În continuare, se vor desfăşura cursuri de formare şi se vor organiza tabere artistice. Se va amenaja un parc de relaxare, se va deschide un restaurant cu produse alimentare de la ferme bio, stimulând apariţia de ferme ecologice în zonă. Prin atragerea în acest proiect şi a altor hoteluri sau pensiuni din staţiune care să ofere produse alimentare bio-dinamice, această activitate poate deveni profitabilă, de sine stătătoare şi cu influenţe pozitive asupra viaţa locuitorilor din zonă. Prin implementarea noului concept terapeutic de Fizioterapie Integrativă la Băile Herculane avem în vedere înţelegerea şi tratarea fiinţei umane în integralitatea sa: Trup, Suflet şi Spirit. Valorile lui conduc la o nouă abordare a stării de sănătate şi boală. Doar astfel privind fiinţa umană, ca o unitate biologică dinamică şi complexă, putem înţelege, că starea sa de sănătate depinde de fiecare dintre aceste părţi componente şi de raporturile funcţionale dintre ele.

\nPoate fi relansat turismul medical în staţiunile balneare? Profesorul Ion Gruia, care a revenit la Băile Herculane la 59 de ani oferă un răspuns concret şi pozitiv prin crearea Centrului de Tratament şi Institutul de Fizioterapie Integrativă din acest oraş. Domnia sa, un specialist de renume european în domeniul kinetoterapiei, colaborează de ani de zile cu instituţii medicale renumite din Europa şi SUA.\n\n\nLa una din întâlnirile cu comunitatea locală din staţiunea Băile Herculane, Nic Ţarălungă, Coordonatorul Naţional al echipei internaţionale de experţi PNUD care a lucrat la Planului Integrat de Dezvoltare Urbană, sublinia că unul din elementele esenţiale ale dezvoltării turistice a staţiunii este formarea resurselor umane şi în special a acelora implicate în sectorul medical. Un adevărat „proiect ancoră”, este „Centru de tratament şi Institut de Fizioterpie Integrativă la Băile Herculane”, dezvoltat de profesorul de kinetoterapie, Ion Gruia.\n\n\nProfesorul Gruia a revenit la 59 de ani, la Băile Herculane, unde s-a confruntat, de-a lungul celor 12 ani în care a activat după terminarea facultăţii, cu o cazuistică diversă şi complexă. În staţiunea de pe Valea Cernei, de care se simte foarte legat, a început să-şi pună în aplicare cunoştinţele de specialitate şi experienţa acumulate în marile şcoli şi clinici europene. Ion Gruia ne expune succint proiectul său estimat la o valoare finală de 1,5 milioane de euro: „Principalele componente sunt cea terapeutică şi didactică. Proiectul se va derula pe etape. Am început deja partea didactică prin susţinerea cursurilor de perfecţionare pentru fizioterapeuţi şi formarea de specialişti în domeniul Fizioterapiei Integrative. În următoarea etapă, proiectul prevede construirea unui sediu propriu pentru funcţionarea unui Centru de tratament cu terapii balneo-fizio-integrative, artistice etc. În continuare, se vor desfăşura cursuri de formare şi se vor organiza tabere artistice. Se va amenaja un parc de relaxare, se va deschide un restaurant cu produse alimentare de la ferme bio, stimulând apariţia de ferme ecologice în zonă. Prin atragerea în acest proiect şi a altor hoteluri sau pensiuni din staţiune care să ofere produse alimentare bio-dinamice, această activitate poate deveni profitabilă, de sine stătătoare şi cu influenţe pozitive asupra viaţa locuitorilor din zonă. Prin implementarea noului concept terapeutic de Fizioterapie Integrativă la Băile Herculane avem în vedere înţelegerea şi tratarea fiinţei umane în integralitatea sa: Trup, Suflet şi Spirit. Valorile lui conduc la o nouă abordare a stării de sănătate şi boală. Doar astfel privind fiinţa umană, ca o unitate biologică dinamică şi complexă, putem înţelege, că starea sa de sănătate depinde de fiecare dintre aceste părţi componente şi de raporturile funcţionale dintre ele. Conceptul fizioterapeutic integrativ reprezintă viitorul fizioterapiei şi corespunde unei conştiinţe umane moderne, în raport cu starea de sănătate şi boală” - ne preciza Ion Gruia.\n\n\nMă gândesc la anii 70 – 80 când Băile Herculane devenise un centru pilot de cercetări ştiinţifice cu o adevărată şcoală de medicină creată aici care atrăgea turişti din toate colţurile Europei la tratament, odihnă şi relaxare. „Prin noile terapii, în Băile Herculane va fi tratată o cazuistică mult mai diversă decât în prezent iar factorii curativi vor fi folosiţi în tratarea unor afecţiuni care n-au mai fost tratate până acum în staţiune.

Remember Henri Coandă
\r\nAbout 40 years ago died a great Romanian scientist, Henri Coandă. Bucharest Airports (CNAB) decided to pay a tribute and organize an event in order to remind to the public the work and life of Coandă, all dedicated to aeronautics.\r\nHenri Coandă (1886 – 1972) was an aerodynamics pioneer. He built an experimental aircraft, the Coandă-1910, described in the mid-1950s as the world\'s first jet. He invented a great number of devices, designed a \"flying saucer\" and discovered the Coandă Effect of fluid dynamics. Some of his inventions where used for landing „Apollo 11” and „Apollo 12”. Coandă was buried in Bellu historical cementery in Bucharest – Romania and the International Airport of the city, Otopeni, also wears his name.

90 since the 1st flight
\r\nAir France and TAROM celebrated 90 years since the first flight being operated on the following route: Prague – Warsaw – Vienna – Budapest – Belgrade – Bucharest (Băneasa) – Istanbul. The flight had been made by The French-Romanian Navigation Company, the predecessor of TAROM and Air France.
\r\nIn 1920 the Romanian diplomat Nicolae Titulescu and the French general Maurice Duval came with the idea of opening a flight from Paris to Bucharest. April 23rd, same year, the French count Pierre Claret de Fleurieu and the Romaian banker Aristide Blank founded The French-Romanian Aerial Navigation Company – the first passengers, cargo and mail, transcontinental carrier. CFRNA opened November 12th, 1922 the first passenger transcontinental aerial route: Paris -Strasbourg – Prague – Warsaw – Vienna – Budapest – Belgrade – Bucharest (Băneasa) – Istanbul. One year later, September 10th, 1923, the first regular international flight for passengers, operated during night time, came on. The CFRNA tradition is maintained today through Air France and TAROM, partners in SkyTeam Alliance.','„WILD CARPATHIA” will go on..

În comparaţie cu deceniile anterioare când manifestările din zonele de travel ori hoteliere duduiau, acum se mai întâmplă câte o Gală ori o conferinţă tematică care are în coadă decernarea unor diplome de onoare ori de excelenţă. Turismul iese rareori la rampă prin concursurile profesionale, iar motivul cel mai comod şi cel mai des invocat este Măria Sa Criza. Să fie oare numai criza de vină?

Făcătorii de turism dau vina pe public, cum că acesta nu ar mai fi interesat de piese, programe, produse de calitate.

\r\n\r\nOUR INTERVIEW: CEZAR MUNTEANU: „I believe that we should modernize, regarding the mentality, to grow as a nation, in order to really gastronomy!”\r\nThe quote belongs to Chef Cezar, widely appreciated in Romania for his initiatives in gastronomy. Though only 39 Cezar Munteanu is backed by a complex biography. He started at 14 on the Romanian seaside and became a cook. He gaindes his name and fame abroad, working for the Embassy of Romania in Italy, then in USA, the for OSCE and UN missions in Vienna. He has been chef of the Embassy of Romania in USA (Washington DC) for over five years, being one of the highly praised Romanian chefs of the diplomatic world. Colin Powell personally congratulated him for a special recipe.l-a felicitat personal după un dineu pentru care bucătarul român pregătise o reţetă specială. Cezar cooked for various presidents, politicians, but also champions such as Nadia Comăneci. He also participates in several teaching and consultancy projects in Romania, Russia, Bulgaria etc. Cezar is Chef-Rotisseur of Baillage de Roumanie -Chaîne de Rotisseurs.
\r\n\r\n90 since the 1st flight
\r\nAir France and TAROM celebrated 90 years since the first flight being operated on the following route: Prague – Warsaw – Vienna – Budapest – Belgrade – Bucharest (Băneasa) – Istanbul. The flight had been made by The French-Romanian Navigation Company, the predecessor of TAROM and Air France.\r\n\r\nIn 1920 the Romanian diplomat Nicolae Titulescu and the French general Maurice Duval came with the idea of opening a flight from Paris to Bucharest. April 23rd, same year, the French count Pierre Claret de Fleurieu and the Romaian banker Aristide Blank founded The French-Romanian Aerial Navigation Company – the first passengers, cargo and mail, transcontinental carrier. CFRNA opened November 12th, 1922 the first passenger transcontinental aerial route: Paris -Strasbourg – Prague – Warsaw – Vienna – Budapest – Belgrade – Bucharest (Băneasa) – Istanbul. One year later, September 10th, 1923, the first regular international flight for passengers, operated during night time, came on. The CFRNA tradition is maintained today through Air France and TAROM, partners in SkyTeam Alliance.

\r\n\r\n\r\nPeste 150 de trupe renumite din Europa, Asia şi America s-au întâlnit la Monte Carlo pentru a-şi etala programele la Festivalul Internaţional al Cluburilor. Evenimentul a fost transmis live în aproape 200 de ţări. România a intrat în competiţie cu 5 localuri de 5 stele: Ego, Crush, Fratelli, Crema şi Bellagio din staţiunea Mamaia, care au impresionat prin spectacolele pline de strălucire susţinute de cele peste 50 de animatoare şi dansatoare. În urma evoluţiilor în faţa a peste 3.000 de invitaţi Mamaia a fost recompensată cu distincţia de “cea mai dinamică şi fashion staţiune de distracţie estivală din Europa”. Premiul i-a fost înmânat primarului Constanţei Radu Mazăre, care a cucerit publicul cu ţinuta sa dar şi cu evenimentele organizate la Mamaia, printre care Festivalul Internaţional de Modă transmis de Fashion TV în toată lumea. Acelaşi trofeu a revenit la ediţii anterioare unor staţiuni ca Ibiza ori Saint-Tropez. La rândul Mazăre i-a oferit primarului din Monte Carlo, George Marsan, o icoană din argint făcută cadou de arhiepiscopia Tomisului. Printre invitaţii Galei de la Monte Carlo s-a numărat şi fosta glorie a tenisului mondial Ilie Năstase care a declarat că pe el Mamaia l-a convins şi abia aşteaptă să petreacă în cluburile de la malul mării. Programul a fost savurat de milionarii care au venit special pentru a viziona cea de-a treia ediţie a Festivalului găzduit de Principatul Monaco. Premiul obţinut îi face pe proprietarii de cluburi să spere că în sezonul următor vor avea şi mai mulţi clienţi străini dornici de distracţie. Cluburile amintite au reuşit să facă un lobby extrem de puternic staţiunii Mamaia, căreia îi va creşte cu singuranţă cota de piaţă. Mai mult, Radu Mazăre a anunţat că ediţia din 2013 a Festivalului ar putea fi găzduită de staţiunea Mamaia.\r\n\r\nREGIO - Viaţa în roz\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Regio-012.jpg\" "\\"Regio")
\r\n\r\n\r\nDeşi reprezentanţii autorităţilor centrale se arată destul de optimiste în ceea ce priveşte implementarea, finanţarea şi finalizarea proiectelor susţinute financiar de către Uniunea Europeană realitatea românească nu degajă acelaşi optimism. Cel puţin în domeniul dezvoltării turismului şi infrastructurii sale. Conform unui raport prezentat despre Stadiul implementării Programului Operaţional Regional (2007-2013), pe Axa Turism, Marcel Boloş, secretar de stat în MDRT, a anunţat că sunt alocaţi 663,3 milioane de euro pentru care au fost depuse 1.163 de proiecte. Din acestea erau aprobate până la 1 octombrie 2012, 535 de proiecte, cu o valoare de 598 de milioane de euro. Au fost contractate 518, cu un buget de 569 de milioane de euro. Duşul rece, ca să spunem aşa, îl reprezintă proiectele finalizate, doar 36, care au absorbit 42 de milioane de euro, ceea ce reprezintă 6,3% din total.\r\nCătălin Surdeanu, Director General Adjunct, al Autorităţii de Management pentru POR, a arătat în cadrul aceleaşi întâlniri că ar fi necesară o schimbare de viziune strategică prin care să fie simplificate procedurile dar în acelaşi timp şi de un management performant la nivelul beneficiarilor. Până atunci, participanţii au reclamat un circuit birocratic supradimensionat, corecţiile financiare care la unele proiecte POR au fost de peste 70%, şi “politica otrăvită” a celui mai mic preţ, după care se orientează licitaţiile.\r\n\r\nÎNCĂ UN CÂŞTIGĂTOR\r\n\r\n„Cross border Istro-Pontic Destination for Cultural Tourism” a fost declarat câştigător în ultima etapă a concursului de proiecte organizat la nivelul Programului de Cooperare Transfrontalieră România-Bulgaria 2007-2013. De implementarea acestuia s-a ocupat EUREKA, în cadrul unui parteneriat cu Muzeul Naţional de Istorie şi Arheologie Constanţa şi cu Asociaţia Europartners Dobrich. Proiectul a fost selectat din primele zece cele mai apreciate, prezentate în cadrul Conferinţei Anuale privind stadiul implementării Programului de Cooperare Transfrontalieră România-Bulgaria 2007-2013 ce s-a desfăşurat la Călăraşi.\r\n\r\nDELTA DUNĂRII ESTE PE LOCUL 1\r\n\r\nSite-ul Ziare.com a realizat un sondaj de opinie menit să stabilească “cea mai frumoasă destinaţie turistică din România”. În urma răspunsurilor, pe primul loc s-a clasat Delta Dunării, cu 45,49% de voturi. Rezervaţia biosferei Delta Dunării, se întinde pe aproape 3.500 de kilometri pătraţi şi se află în continuă extindere.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Delta-Dunarii-5.jpg\" "\\"Delta")
\r\n\r\nAceastă atracţie a fost secondată, cu 13,70% de răspunsuri, de Mănăstirea Voroneţ. Ctitorită de Ştefan cel Mare în 1488 ea a devenit celebră în lumea întreaga pentru albastrul unic al frescelor sale. Locul trei a revenit Lacului Bâlea, cu 13,42%. În continuare au mai fost votate următoarele atracţii:Cazanele Dunării, Pasul Tihuţa, Crucea Caraiman, Sfinxul din Bucegi, Vulcanii noroioşi, Peştera Focul viu şi Cascada Cailor. Sondajul a fost realizat pe un eşantion de 5.431 de persoane.\r\n\r\nCAZINOUL DIN CONSTANŢA NU SE MAI VINDE\r\n\r\nRadu Mazăre, primarul municipiului Constanţa a declarat că în ceea ce priveşte acest obiectiv de patrimoniu, a intervenit o schimbare de strategie. Cazinoul nu va mai fi scos la vânzare ci va deveni subiectul de dezvoltare al unui parteneriat public-privat. Investitori din Rusia ar dori să se implice ca asociaţi, în amenajarea unui hotel de 5 stele în apropierea Cazinoului, unde ar urma să fie cazaţi jucătorii. Primarul a mai spus că se aşteaptă ca de viitorul proiect să fie interesaţi şi alţi investitori internaţionali.\r\n\r\nCUM TRECE TIMPUL !\r\n\r\nHenri Coandă, marele savant român în domeniul aeronautic şi spaţial a fost comemorat printr-un eveniment special de către Compania Naţională Aeroporturi Bucureşti (CNAB). El a fost dedicat împlinirii a 40 de ani de la trecerea în nefiinţă a acestui mare inventator, printre altele, creatorul „primului aeroplan cu reacţie din lume”, efectului care-i poartă numele, al „epoleţilor zburători” care au fost folosiţi pentru frânarea modulelor lunare „Apollo 11” şi „Apollo 12” la aselenizare, al puştii fără recul, caselor prefabricate, instalaţiei solară pentru desalinizarea apei de mare etc. Mormântul lui Coandă se află la cimitirul Bellu. Cea mai importantă poartă aeriană a României, Aeroportul Internaţional Otopeni, este legată de numele acestei personalităţi.\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON & ALEX BARBU','MONTE CARLO vine la Mamaia? De ce nu?

\r\nTTR (Târgul de Turism al României) îşi va deschide porţile între 14 şi 17 martie. A XXIX-a ediţie a manifestării este organizată de Romexpo în parteneriat cu Camerele de Comert şi Industrie teritoriale, ANAT, FPTR, ANTREC şi OPTBR la Centrul Expoziţional din Bucureşti. TRAVELLER MAGAZIN este unul dintre tradiţionalii PARTENERI MEDIA. La standul publicaţiei noastre SCRIITORUL SI EDITORUL MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU, va acorda pe toată perioada Târgului autografe pe ultimele sale CĂRTI DE TURISM.\r\n\r\nEdiţia din aceasta primavara a Targului de Turism se anunta, inca de pe acum, mai interesantă ca niciodata: in cele 6 pavilioane vor participa peste 250 firme, din peste 25 de tari si peste 50 de zone turistice din Romania. “Târgul de Turism al României îşi propune să contribuie la consolidarea acestei industrii, atât prin promovarea atracţiilor turistice şi a serviciilor aferente, cât şi prin organizarea de seminarii menite să aducă în atenţia autorităţilor dificultăţile din acest domeniu” – a declarat Mariana Suciu, directorul general al Romexpo. Cu aceasta ocazie vor fi lansate si noi programe: de la „city break in Romania”, la pachete pentru seniori, tabere pentru copii, pana la circuite exclusiviste. In plus, pentru toti vizitatorii, firmele participante vor pregati concursuri cu premii importante, materiale de prezentare, astfel incat, toti participantii sa se simta deja mai aproape de vacanta visata. Pentru toti cei care au ratat ofertele “early-booking” din luna ianuarie, mai exista o sansa: Targul de Turism al Romaniei, desfasurat la Romexpo in perioada 14-17 martie, va prezenta tuturor persoanelor aflate in cautarea vacantei perfecte o gama variata de oferte pentru turism de aventura, croaziere, sejururi exotice, propuneri de „city break”, vacante la tara, circuite culturale, dar si bilete de avion sau asigurari de calatorie. Intrucat in acest an ziua de 1 Mai va coincide cu saptamana Sarbatorilor Pascale, patronatele hoteliere impreuna cu agentiile de turism au pregatit deja pachete speciale. Astfel, pentru perioada 30 aprilie - 07 mai, preturile pornesc de la 60 de lei de persoana/noapte la hotelurile de 3 stele, de la 100 de lei de persoana/noapte la hotelurile de 4 stele si de la 229 de lei/persoana pe noapte la hotelurile de 5 stele, in functie de serviciile pe care le ofera fiecare unitate de cazare.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Imagine-tirg1.jpg\" "\\"IMPHOTO.ro")

\r\n\r\nE mult mai cunoscut sub numele marcă Chef Cezar. Probabil, asta a şi dorit. În România este apreciat în lumea profesională a artei culinare, pentru contribuţiile sale la dezvoltarea a numeroase manifestări gastronomice. În străinătate este identificat în mod aparte prin activităţile sale complexe ce acoperă domenii largi, de la consultanţă de profil până la proiecte de voluntariat ce sprijină categorii defavorizate. Chef Cezar este Cezar Munteanu. La 39 de ani are în spate o biografie care a comprimat timpul nu în ani ci în luni. A crescut în Mangalia. La 14 ani, făcea practică pe litoral iar mai târziu devenea ajutor de bucătar la un restaurant din staţiunea Venus. Aşa a început povestea unui viitor bucătar român care şi-a câştigat prestigiul dar mai ales recunoaşterea în străinătate, unde a lucrat prin Ministerul de Externe, la ambasadele României din Italia şi SUA, apoi cu misiunile OSCE şi ONU de la Viena. 5 ani şi jumătate a lucrat în SUA, ca bucătar şef la Ambasada României din Statele Unite (în Washington DC). Cam pe atunci i-a apărut renumele ca este cel mai bun bucătar “al diplomaţilor români” şi unul dintre cei mai respectaţi în aceste cercuri. Colin Powell l-a felicitat personal după un dineu pentru care bucătarul român pregătise o reţetă specială cu muşchi de vită, ficat de gâscă, icre negre şi roşii, sos de ciocolată şi miere. A gătit însă şi pentru mari campioni printre care Nadia Comăneci, pentru preşedinţi de stat, politicieni, artişti şi alte figuri publice. Este căsătorit şi are doi copii.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Cezar-Munteanu-22.jpg\" "\\"Cezar")

\r\n\r\n“Într-adevăr, sunt destul de mult timp plecat din România. Am multe proiecte alături de partenerii mei de drum lung ca şi consultant de specialitate sau brand chef. A fost anul acesta, de multe ori Rusia, au fost Italia, Germania, Franţa… Aş vrea să pomenesc şi despre proiectele mele Slow Food. De curând am fost desemnat Ambasador Slow Food International şi am devenit unul dintre coordonatorii zonali ai mişcării. Militez ca ideile Slow Food să se transforme cât de curând în mod de viaţă şi pentru români, pentru că trebuie să luptăm impotriva globalizării şi din punct de vedere alimentar. Am în pregatire şi proiecte în zona republicilor CSI. Multe proiecte, timp şi sănătate să fie !”\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Cezar-Munteanu10.jpg\" "\\"Cezar")
\r\n\r\n- Sincer vorbind la experienţa pe care ai acumulat-o nu înţeleg de ce ai revenit în ţară unde mediul de afaceri în turism, deci şi cel din gastronomie, este minat invidie şi fracturat de orgolii !\r\n- Despre întoarcerea mea… am fost peste 14 ani în slujba României în mediul diplomatic. Au fost ani foarte frumoşi, cu multe succese. Întors pe «plaiurile mioritice» am decis să mă implic mult mai mult în ceea ce înseamna modernizarea unei industrii care este înca în dezvoltare: industria turismului.\r\n\r\nNu sunt singurul care militează pentru schimbare, suntem însă prea puţini…încă. Din păcate, politicul fracturează aceasta modernizare. Faptul că sunt orgolii multe cred că este mai degrabă o chestiune de percepţie a ceea ce înseamna business în acest domeniu. Speranţa mea este ca odată înţelese mizele şi importanţa acestei industrii, ceva se va schimba!\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Czar-Munteanu-5.jpg\" "\\"Czar")
\r\n\r\n- Ne-am întâlnit în ultimii ani la mai multe evenimente reprezentând mai multe instituţii fie de învăţământ fie companii de profil. Pentru unele ai devenit chiar imagine de marcă. Ai fost lector la THR CG, apoi la American Hospitality Academy (AHA din Braşov). Eşti unul dintre liderii ANBCT. Ai renunţat la o mare parte dintre colaborări. Au fost aşteptările mai mari decât răspunsurile primite ?\r\n\r\n- Ne-am întâlnit la multe evenimente, aşa este… Peste tot pe unde am fost mi-am lăsat « amprenta », marcată de devotament şi cu rezultate. Au fost şi premii cu studenţii, cei pe care i-am avut în formare, vezi THR CG (atunci când ne-am întâlnit pentru prima dată). În ceea ce priveşte AHA Braşov, cred că este una din instituţiile menite să schimbe în bine atitudinea managerului român. A propos de colaborări, aş vrea să menţionez şi titulatura mea ca lector la Academia « Exclusive » din Moscova… si, surprizele nu se opresc aici… Despre ANBCT? Sunt multe de făcut aici, eu sper într-o conducere mult mai tehnocrată managerial. De asemeni, salut iniţiativa formării unor noi asociaţii, vezi ANG-ul din Banat şi altele… Cu cât sunt mai mulţi profesionişti uniţi în jurul unor idei sau al unui crez comun, cu atât ne putem face mai bine auziţi. Despre aşteptări… sunt realist, niciodată nu m-am dus la pomul lăudat cu sacul, cu toate că mi-aş fi dorit!\r\n\r\n- În calitate de bucătar ai pus umărul, din spatele scenei la integrarea Nord-Atlantică a României dar şi la alte evenimente din viaţa politică externă românească în perioada în care ai servit… OSCE-ul. Face casă bună gastronomia cu politica ?\r\n\r\n- Protocolul şi riturile mesei, care ţin de cultura gastronomică, sunt foarte importante în diplomaţie. Evocând surse istorice, un exemplu al atenţiei ce se acorda, şi la noi, încă din Evul Mediu, problemelor de protocol îl constituie faptul că Neagoe Basarab, domn al Ţării Româneşti între anii 1512–1521, în binecunoscuta sa operă “Învăţăturile lui Neagoe Basarab către fiul său Teodosie”, găseşte de cuviinţă să-i dea sfaturi urmaşului său şi în ce priveşte protocolul în capitole anume consacrate recrutării boierilor şi cinstirii lor, primirii solilor, modului de... aşezare la mesele domneşti. Putem evoca şi “Descriptio Moldaviae” a lui Cantemir, şi, ca să ne apropiem de zilele noastre, prima instituţionalizare modernă a protocolului în România are loc în anii domniei lui Carol I. Misiunea i-a revenit generalului Theodor Văcărescu, în calitatea sa de Mareşal al Curţii Domneşti şi, ulterior, al Casei Regale. Documentul elaborat de acesta, intitulat „Ceremonialul Curţii Domneşti“, a fost tipărit în limba română, în anul 1876. Înapoi la mine…M-am bucurat de faptul că am fost în « teatrele operative » diplomatice ale României atunci când a fost nevoie. Într-adevar, consider că am pornit cu dreptul, încă de când România a deţinut Preşedenţia F.A.O., în Italia cu E.S. Ambasadorul Constantin Grigorie, în Viena, cu E.S. Ambasadorul Liviu Bota, pe perioada Preşedenţiei O.S.C.E., şi în S.U.A., cu E.S. Ambasadorul Sorin Ducaru. Nu sunt singurii, am lucrat cu mulţi oameni excepţionali. Gastronomia ar trebui să facă şi mai mult lobby pentru România. În jurul mesei se finalizează multe etape de negociere, mai ales în politica externă. Este cunoscută alianţa dintre diplomatul francez Talleyrand şi celebrul bucătar Antonin Carême, ca să ne întoarcem la istorie.
- De o vreme eşti Chef-Rotisseur, în cadrul Baillage de Roumanie al Confreriei internaţionale a gurmanzilor \"Chaîne de Rotisseurs\" (Lanţul Rotiserilor). Care e cel mai important lucru pe care ar trebui să-l ştim despre această reprezentare ?\r\n\r\n- Chaîne des Rôtisseurs, una dintre cele mai prestigioase organizaţii de cultură gastronomică din lume, şi-a făcut simţită prezenţa pentru prima dată în România în februarie 2007. Abia dupa doi ani iniţiativa a prins contur, reuşindu-se atragerea numărului minim de membri necesar pentru înfiinţarea asociaţiei naţionale. Să nu îţi imaginezi că primii paşi au fost uşori. Dr. Octavian Făgăraş este cel care a avut iniţiativa de a introduce şi în România valorile acestei organizaţii de renume mondial. Cine e cu adevărat profesionist ştie ce înseamnă Chaîne des Rôtisseurs în lume. Restaurantele recomandate de Chaîne des Rôtisseurs au un anumit standard, răspund anumitor aşteptări. Fiecare nominalizare pentru restaurant Chaîne des Rôtisseurs se reînnoieşte în fiecare an, după criterii riguroase, iar pentru profesionişti este o mândrie să faca parte din această asociaţie.\r\n\r\n- Sincer vorbind m-a interesat în mod deosebit implicarea ta într-o serie de proiecte. Te-ai “calibrat” mai întâi în timpul colaborării cu St. Andrew Foundation of Romania, în Washington DC. Cât de important este să lucrezi cu tinerii mai ales când şi tu eşti aproape la fel de tânăr ca ei??? Mai precis ce poate transmite un formator, el însuşi avid de formare profesională?\r\n- Sunt implicat în foarte multe proiecte social-educative. Acum, spre exemplu, rulez împreună cu Selgros Cash and Carry un proiect de suflet - “Sănătatea începe din farfurie”, un program destinat copiilor. De fapt, este un proiect derulat prin Asociaţia “Chef Cezar-Stil de viaţă sănătos”. Am lucrat şi cu copii de romi... copii din medii defavorizate, multe proiecte....Ce poate transmite un formator? Siguranţă, stăpânire de sine, informaţii şi demnitate. Să lucrezi cu copii şi tineri, şi nu numai, este o provocare. Informaţia se întipăreşte în mintea lor şi ea va fi transmisă mai departe. Ei sunt ambasadorii formatorilor. Cât de bun eşti, aşa de buni vor fi şi ei!\r\n- Ai avut o experienţă de 24 de carate în Africa unde ai făcut parte din cele două echipe de bucătari români ce s-au alăturat unei iniţiative caritabile ce a avut ca scop strângerea de fonduri pentru copii săraci din Africa de Sud. Ce ai câştigat profesional şi sufleteşte din această experienţă?\r\n- Experienţa din Africa m-a marcat profund... S-au produs multe schimbări.... Am văzut ce înseamnă cu adevărat sărăcie, foamete şi moarte. Ştii, am realizat că în România nu avem sărăcie... Avem doar o altă viziune despre resurse! Ce am câştigat profesional? Multă vizibilitate în exterior, colaborarea cu Rusia. Sufleteşte? Am înţeles ce înseamnă sărăcia, viaţa cu adevarat, am câştigat mulţi prieteni şi respect!\r\n- Prin firma ta de consultanţă eşti implicat în mai multe proiecte. O parte din ele se desfăşoară în Rusia unde am înţeles că deţii şi un birou propriu. Cât de generoasă este această piaţă pentru sectorul HORECA?\r\n- Piata HoReCa din Rusia este în continuă modernizare. Doresc tuturor să se îndrepte spre această zonă. Nu de mult, după un an de colaborare, am devenit Brand Chef pentru “Zaseka” – din Penza, un lanţ de restaurante în plină dezvoltare. Vrem să transformăm acest oraş într-o “Mecca” a gastronomiei ruseşti, prin calitatea serviciilor. De altfel, ”Zaseka” se va extinde şi internaţional.\r\nÎn continuare cursurile mele la Academie, ”Mr.Cezarus” din Yaroslavl... proiecte de inimă, care îmi aduc maximă satisfacţie! A propos de Academia “Exclusive” din Moscova, la Erfurt, cursanţii antrenaţi la noi au obţinut 4 medalii de aur!\r\n- Dacă ar fi să identifici trei elemente care gripează industria culinară românească, care ar fi acestea ?\r\n- Fără menajamente: 1. Lipsa înţelegerii a ceea ce înseamnă discurs tehnic gastronomic, despre ce şi cum trebuie să vorbească un profesionist din domeniul gastronomiei; 2. Orgoliile nejustificate; 3. Şcolile de profil din sectorul de stat, din ce în ce mai slabe ca şi calitate a învăţământului!\r\nAr mai fi şi şcolile de 3 sau nu ştiu câte zile sau luni, şcolile de “formare profesională” din apartamente.

Urez să fiţi buni, suntem o naţie de oameni excepţionali! Am un prieten bun, Uica Mihai, un bănăţean get beget, ce încheie de fiecare dată cu excepţionala urare: “Fereşte-ne Doamne de rău, că de bine ne-ai ferit pâna acum!”\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU

De ce nu ?\n\n\n\nPeste 150 de trupe renumite din Europa, Asia şi America s-au întâlnit la Monte Carlo pentru a-şi etala programele la Festivalul Internaţional al Cluburilor. Evenimentul a fost transmis live în aproape 200 de ţări. România a intrat în competiţie cu 5 localuri de 5 stele: Ego, Crush, Fratelli, Crema şi Bellagio din staţiunea Mamaia, care au impresionat prin spectacolele pline de strălucire susţinute de cele peste 50 de animatoare şi dansatoare. În urma evoluţiilor în faţa a peste 3.000 de invitaţi Mamaia a fost recompensată cu distincţia de “cea mai dinamică şi fashion staţiune de distracţie estivală din Europa”. Premiul i-a fost înmânat primarului Constanţei Radu Mazăre, care a cucerit publicul cu ţinuta sa dar şi cu evenimentele organizate la Mamaia, printre care Festivalul Internaţional de Modă transmis de Fashion TV în toată lumea. Acelaşi trofeu a revenit la ediţii anterioare unor staţiuni ca Ibiza ori Saint-Tropez. La rândul Mazăre i-a oferit primarului din Monte Carlo, George Marsan, o icoană din argint făcută cadou de arhiepiscopia Tomisului. Printre invitaţii Galei de la Monte Carlo s-a numărat şi fosta glorie a tenisului mondial Ilie Năstase care a declarat că pe el Mamaia l-a convins şi abia aşteaptă să petreacă în cluburile de la malul mării. Programul a fost savurat de milionarii care au venit special pentru a viziona cea de-a treia ediţie a Festivalului găzduit de Principatul Monaco. Premiul obţinut îi face pe proprietarii de cluburi să spere că în sezonul următor vor avea şi mai mulţi clienţi străini dornici de distracţie. Cluburile amintite au reuşit să facă un lobby extrem de puternic staţiunii Mamaia, căreia îi va creşte cu singuranţă cota de piaţă. Mai mult, Radu Mazăre a anunţat că ediţia din 2013 a Festivalului ar putea fi găzduită de staţiunea Mamaia.\n\nREGIO - Viaţa în roz\n\n\n\nDeşi reprezentanţii autorităţilor centrale se arată destul de optimiste în ceea ce priveşte implementarea, finanţarea şi finalizarea proiectelor susţinute financiar de către Uniunea Europeană realitatea românească nu degajă acelaşi optimism. Cel puţin în domeniul dezvoltării turismului şi infrastructurii sale. Conform unui raport prezentat despre Stadiul implementării Programului Operaţional Regional (2007-2013), pe Axa Turism, Marcel Boloş, secretar de stat în MDRT, a anunţat că sunt alocaţi 663,3 milioane de euro pentru care au fost depuse 1.163 de proiecte. Din acestea erau aprobate până la 1 octombrie 2012, 535 de proiecte, cu o valoare de 598 de milioane de euro. Au fost contractate 518, cu un buget de 569 de milioane de euro. Duşul rece, ca să spunem aşa, îl reprezintă proiectele finalizate, doar 36, care au absorbit 42 de milioane de euro, ceea ce reprezintă 6,3% din total.\nCătălin Surdeanu, Director General Adjunct, al Autorităţii de Management pentru POR, a arătat în cadrul aceleaşi întâlniri că ar fi necesară o schimbare de viziune strategică prin care să fie simplificate procedurile dar în acelaşi timp şi de un management performant la nivelul beneficiarilor. Până atunci, participanţii au reclamat un circuit birocratic supradimensionat, corecţiile financiare care la unele proiecte POR au fost de peste 70%, şi “politica otrăvită” a celui mai mic preţ, după care se orientează licitaţiile.\n\nÎNCĂ UN CÂŞTIGĂTOR\n\n„Cross border Istro-Pontic Destination for Cultural Tourism” a fost declarat câştigător în ultima etapă a concursului de proiecte organizat la nivelul Programului de Cooperare Transfrontalieră România-Bulgaria 2007-2013. De implementarea acestuia s-a ocupat EUREKA, în cadrul unui parteneriat cu Muzeul Naţional de Istorie şi Arheologie Constanţa şi cu Asociaţia Europartners Dobrich. Proiectul a fost selectat din primele zece cele mai apreciate, prezentate în cadrul Conferinţei Anuale privind stadiul implementării Programului de Cooperare Transfrontalieră România-Bulgaria 2007-2013 ce s-a desfăşurat la Călăraşi.\n\nDELTA DUNĂRII ESTE PE LOCUL 1\n\nSite-ul Ziare.com a realizat un sondaj de opinie menit să stabilească “cea mai frumoasă destinaţie turistică din România”. În urma răspunsurilor, pe primul loc s-a clasat Delta Dunării, cu 45,49% de voturi. Rezervaţia biosferei Delta Dunării, se întinde pe aproape 3.500 de kilometri pătraţi şi se află în continuă extindere.\n\n\nAceastă atracţie a fost secondată, cu 13,70% de răspunsuri, de Mănăstirea Voroneţ. Ctitorită de Ştefan cel Mare în 1488 ea a devenit celebră în lumea întreaga pentru albastrul unic al frescelor sale. Locul trei a revenit Lacului Bâlea, cu 13,42%. În continuare au mai fost votate următoarele atracţii:Cazanele Dunării, Pasul Tihuţa, Crucea Caraiman, Sfinxul din Bucegi, Vulcanii noroioşi, Peştera Focul viu şi Cascada Cailor. Sondajul a fost realizat pe un eşantion de 5.431 de persoane.\n\nCAZINOUL DIN CONSTANŢA NU SE MAI VINDE\n\nRadu Mazăre, primarul municipiului Constanţa a declarat că în ceea ce priveşte acest obiectiv de patrimoniu, a intervenit o schimbare de strategie. Cazinoul nu va mai fi scos la vânzare ci va deveni subiectul de dezvoltare al unui parteneriat public-privat. Investitori din Rusia ar dori să se implice ca asociaţi, în amenajarea unui hotel de 5 stele în apropierea Cazinoului, unde ar urma să fie cazaţi jucătorii. Primarul a mai spus că se aşteaptă ca de viitorul proiect să fie interesaţi şi alţi investitori internaţionali.\n\nCUM TRECE TIMPUL !\n\nHenri Coandă, marele savant român în domeniul aeronautic şi spaţial a fost comemorat printr-un eveniment special de către Compania Naţională Aeroporturi Bucureşti (CNAB). El a fost dedicat împlinirii a 40 de ani de la trecerea în nefiinţă a acestui mare inventator, printre altele, creatorul „primului aeroplan cu reacţie din lume”, efectului care-i poartă numele, al „epoleţilor zburători” care au fost folosiţi pentru frânarea modulelor lunare „Apollo 11” şi „Apollo 12” la aselenizare, al puştii fără recul, caselor prefabricate, instalaţiei solară pentru desalinizarea apei de mare etc. Mormântul lui Coandă se află la cimitirul Bellu. Cea mai importantă poartă aeriană a României, Aeroportul Internaţional Otopeni, este legată de numele acestei personalităţi.\n\nMARA ANTON & ALEX BARBU','MONTE CARLO vine la Mamaia? De ce nu?

Probabil, asta a şi dorit. În România este apreciat în lumea profesională a artei culinare, pentru contribuţiile sale la dezvoltarea a numeroase manifestări gastronomice. În străinătate este identificat în mod aparte prin activităţile sale complexe ce acoperă domenii largi, de la consultanţă de profil până la proiecte de voluntariat ce sprijină categorii defavorizate. Chef Cezar este Cezar Munteanu. La 39 de ani are în spate o biografie care a comprimat timpul nu în ani ci în luni. A crescut în Mangalia. La 14 ani, făcea practică pe litoral iar mai târziu devenea ajutor de bucătar la un restaurant din staţiunea Venus. Aşa a început povestea unui viitor bucătar român care şi-a câştigat prestigiul dar mai ales recunoaşterea în străinătate, unde a lucrat prin Ministerul de Externe, la ambasadele României din Italia şi SUA, apoi cu misiunile OSCE şi ONU de la Viena. 5 ani şi jumătate a lucrat în SUA, ca bucătar şef la Ambasada României din Statele Unite (în Washington DC). Cam pe atunci i-a apărut renumele ca este cel mai bun bucătar “al diplomaţilor români” şi unul dintre cei mai respectaţi în aceste cercuri. Colin Powell l-a felicitat personal după un dineu pentru care bucătarul român pregătise o reţetă specială cu muşchi de vită, ficat de gâscă, icre negre şi roşii, sos de ciocolată şi miere. A gătit însă şi pentru mari campioni printre care Nadia Comăneci, pentru preşedinţi de stat, politicieni, artişti şi alte figuri publice. Este căsătorit şi are doi copii.\n\n\nÎntre turneele gastronomice, proiectele şi activităţile internaţionale de voluntariat am reuşit să ne intersectăm pentru acest interviu.\n\n\n“Într-adevăr, sunt destul de mult timp plecat din România. Am multe proiecte alături de partenerii mei de drum lung ca şi consultant de specialitate sau brand chef. A fost anul acesta, de multe ori Rusia, au fost Italia, Germania, Franţa… Aş vrea să pomenesc şi despre proiectele mele Slow Food. De curând am fost desemnat Ambasador Slow Food International şi am devenit unul dintre coordonatorii zonali ai mişcării. Militez ca ideile Slow Food să se transforme cât de curând în mod de viaţă şi pentru români, pentru că trebuie să luptăm impotriva globalizării şi din punct de vedere alimentar. Am în pregatire şi proiecte în zona republicilor CSI. Multe proiecte, timp şi sănătate să fie !”\n\n\n- Sincer vorbind la experienţa pe care ai acumulat-o nu înţeleg de ce ai revenit în ţară unde mediul de afaceri în turism, deci şi cel din gastronomie, este minat invidie şi fracturat de orgolii !\n- Despre întoarcerea mea… am fost peste 14 ani în slujba României în mediul diplomatic. Au fost ani foarte frumoşi, cu multe succese. Întors pe «plaiurile mioritice» am decis să mă implic mult mai mult în ceea ce înseamna modernizarea unei industrii care este înca în dezvoltare: industria turismului.\n\nNu sunt singurul care militează pentru schimbare, suntem însă prea puţini…încă. Din păcate, politicul fracturează aceasta modernizare. Faptul că sunt orgolii multe cred că este mai degrabă o chestiune de percepţie a ceea ce înseamna business în acest domeniu. Speranţa mea este ca odată înţelese mizele şi importanţa acestei industrii, ceva se va schimba!\n\n\n- Ne-am întâlnit în ultimii ani la mai multe evenimente reprezentând mai multe instituţii fie de învăţământ fie companii de profil. Pentru unele ai devenit chiar imagine de marcă. Ai fost lector la THR CG, apoi la American Hospitality Academy (AHA din Braşov). Eşti unul dintre liderii ANBCT. Ai renunţat la o mare parte dintre colaborări. Au fost aşteptările mai mari decât răspunsurile primite ?\n\n- Ne-am întâlnit la multe evenimente, aşa este… Peste tot pe unde am fost mi-am lăsat « amprenta », marcată de devotament şi cu rezultate. Au fost şi premii cu studenţii, cei pe care i-am avut în formare, vezi THR CG (atunci când ne-am întâlnit pentru prima dată). În ceea ce priveşte AHA Braşov, cred că este una din instituţiile menite să schimbe în bine atitudinea managerului român. A propos de colaborări, aş vrea să menţionez şi titulatura mea ca lector la Academia « Exclusive » din Moscova… si, surprizele nu se opresc aici… Despre ANBCT? Sunt multe de făcut aici, eu sper într-o conducere mult mai tehnocrată managerial. De asemeni, salut iniţiativa formării unor noi asociaţii, vezi ANG-ul din Banat şi altele… Cu cât sunt mai mulţi profesionişti uniţi în jurul unor idei sau al unui crez comun, cu atât ne putem face mai bine auziţi. Despre aşteptări… sunt realist, niciodată nu m-am dus la pomul lăudat cu sacul, cu toate că mi-aş fi dorit!\n\n- În calitate de bucătar ai pus umărul, din spatele scenei la integrarea Nord-Atlantică a României dar şi la alte evenimente din viaţa politică externă românească în perioada în care ai servit… OSCE-ul. Face casă bună gastronomia cu politica ?\n\n- Protocolul şi riturile mesei, care ţin de cultura gastronomică, sunt foarte importante în diplomaţie. Evocând surse istorice, un exemplu al atenţiei ce se acorda, şi la noi, încă din Evul Mediu, problemelor de protocol îl constituie faptul că Neagoe Basarab, domn al Ţării Româneşti între anii 1512–1521, în binecunoscuta sa operă “Învăţăturile lui Neagoe Basarab către fiul său Teodosie”, găseşte de cuviinţă să-i dea sfaturi urmaşului său şi în ce priveşte protocolul în capitole anume consacrate recrutării boierilor şi cinstirii lor, primirii solilor, modului de... aşezare la mesele domneşti. Putem evoca şi “Descriptio Moldaviae” a lui Cantemir, şi, ca să ne apropiem de zilele noastre, prima instituţionalizare modernă a protocolului în România are loc în anii domniei lui Carol I. Misiunea i-a revenit generalului Theodor Văcărescu, în calitatea sa de Mareşal al Curţii Domneşti şi, ulterior, al Casei Regale. Documentul elaborat de acesta, intitulat „Ceremonialul Curţii Domneşti“, a fost tipărit în limba română, în anul 1876. Înapoi la mine…M-am bucurat de faptul că am fost în « teatrele operative » diplomatice ale României atunci când a fost nevoie. Într-adevar, consider că am pornit cu dreptul, încă de când România a deţinut Preşedenţia F.A.O., în Italia cu E.S. Ambasadorul Constantin Grigorie, în Viena, cu E.S. Ambasadorul Liviu Bota, pe perioada Preşedenţiei O.S.C.E., şi în S.U.A., cu E.S. Ambasadorul Sorin Ducaru. Nu sunt singurii, am lucrat cu mulţi oameni excepţionali. Gastronomia ar trebui să facă şi mai mult lobby pentru România. În jurul mesei se finalizează multe etape de negociere, mai ales în politica externă. Este cunoscută alianţa dintre diplomatul francez Talleyrand şi celebrul bucătar Antonin Carême, ca să ne întoarcem la istorie.
- De o vreme eşti Chef-Rotisseur, în cadrul Baillage de Roumanie al Confreriei internaţionale a gurmanzilor \"Chaîne de Rotisseurs\" (Lanţul Rotiserilor). Care e cel mai important lucru pe care ar trebui să-l ştim despre această reprezentare ?\n\n- Chaîne des Rôtisseurs, una dintre cele mai prestigioase organizaţii de cultură gastronomică din lume, şi-a făcut simţită prezenţa pentru prima dată în România în februarie 2007. Abia dupa doi ani iniţiativa a prins contur, reuşindu-se atragerea numărului minim de membri necesar pentru înfiinţarea asociaţiei naţionale. Să nu îţi imaginezi că primii paşi au fost uşori. Dr. Octavian Făgăraş este cel care a avut iniţiativa de a introduce şi în România valorile acestei organizaţii de renume mondial. Cine e cu adevărat profesionist ştie ce înseamnă Chaîne des Rôtisseurs în lume. Restaurantele recomandate de Chaîne des Rôtisseurs au un anumit standard, răspund anumitor aşteptări. Fiecare nominalizare pentru restaurant Chaîne des Rôtisseurs se reînnoieşte în fiecare an, după criterii riguroase, iar pentru profesionişti este o mândrie să faca parte din această asociaţie.\n\n- Sincer vorbind m-a interesat în mod deosebit implicarea ta într-o serie de proiecte. Te-ai “calibrat” mai întâi în timpul colaborării cu St. Andrew Foundation of Romania, în Washington DC. Cât de important este să lucrezi cu tinerii mai ales când şi tu eşti aproape la fel de tânăr ca ei??? Mai precis ce poate transmite un formator, el însuşi avid de formare profesională?\n- Sunt implicat în foarte multe proiecte social-educative. Acum, spre exemplu, rulez împreună cu Selgros Cash and Carry un proiect de suflet - “Sănătatea începe din farfurie”, un program destinat copiilor. De fapt, este un proiect derulat prin Asociaţia “Chef Cezar-Stil de viaţă sănătos”. Am lucrat şi cu copii de romi... copii din medii defavorizate, multe proiecte....Ce poate transmite un formator? Siguranţă, stăpânire de sine, informaţii şi demnitate. Să lucrezi cu copii şi tineri, şi nu numai, este o provocare. Informaţia se întipăreşte în mintea lor şi ea va fi transmisă mai departe. Ei sunt ambasadorii formatorilor. Cât de bun eşti, aşa de buni vor fi şi ei!\n- Ai avut o experienţă de 24 de carate în Africa unde ai făcut parte din cele două echipe de bucătari români ce s-au alăturat unei iniţiative caritabile ce a avut ca scop strângerea de fonduri pentru copii săraci din Africa de Sud. Ce ai câştigat profesional şi sufleteşte din această experienţă?\n- Experienţa din Africa m-a marcat profund... S-au produs multe schimbări.... Am văzut ce înseamnă cu adevărat sărăcie, foamete şi moarte. Ştii, am realizat că în România nu avem sărăcie... Avem doar o altă viziune despre resurse! Ce am câştigat profesional? Multă vizibilitate în exterior, colaborarea cu Rusia. Sufleteşte? Am înţeles ce înseamnă sărăcia, viaţa cu adevarat, am câştigat mulţi prieteni şi respect!\n- Prin firma ta de consultanţă eşti implicat în mai multe proiecte. O parte din ele se desfăşoară în Rusia unde am înţeles că deţii şi un birou propriu. Cât de generoasă este această piaţă pentru sectorul HORECA?\n- Piata HoReCa din Rusia este în continuă modernizare. Doresc tuturor să se îndrepte spre această zonă. Nu de mult, după un an de colaborare, am devenit Brand Chef pentru “Zaseka” – din Penza, un lanţ de restaurante în plină dezvoltare. Vrem să transformăm acest oraş într-o “Mecca” a gastronomiei ruseşti, prin calitatea serviciilor. De altfel, ”Zaseka” se va extinde şi internaţional.\nÎn continuare cursurile mele la Academie, ”Mr.Cezarus” din Yaroslavl... proiecte de inimă, care îmi aduc maximă satisfacţie! A propos de Academia “Exclusive” din Moscova, la Erfurt, cursanţii antrenaţi la noi au obţinut 4 medalii de aur!\n- Dacă ar fi să identifici trei elemente care gripează industria culinară românească, care ar fi acestea ?\n- Fără menajamente: 1. Lipsa înţelegerii a ceea ce înseamnă discurs tehnic gastronomic, despre ce şi cum trebuie să vorbească un profesionist din domeniul gastronomiei; 2. Orgoliile nejustificate; 3. Şcolile de profil din sectorul de stat, din ce în ce mai slabe ca şi calitate a învăţământului!\nAr mai fi şi şcolile de 3 sau nu ştiu câte zile sau luni, şcolile de “formare profesională” din apartamente. Aici statul ar trebui să intervină în mod direct în dizolvarea lor. Ce aş mai face daca aş fi în locul reprezentanţilor statului? I-aş verifica pe cei ce au accesat fonduri europene prin programele POSDRU şi au şcolit doar cu buletinul... Ce au devenit cursanţii acestora?\n- La ce crezi că suntem deficitari în gastronomie. La capitolul profesionişti sau la cel tehnologic?\n- Aici e aici... Avem de a face cu un complex destul de nefericit... Stăm prost la tehnologie, suntem deficitari la profesionişti! Cei buni nu sunt suficienţi şi, din păcate sunt foarte concentraţi doar pe dezvoltarea brand-ului personal. S-au creat aşa-zise “vedete” care nu au nimic din comportamentul unui adevărat model profesional. Avem profesionişti în afară, sunt buni, dar, din păcate, sunt doar afară... Cred că ar trebui să ne modernizam şi ca mentalitate, noi ca naţie, să înţelegem ce este cu adevărat gastronomia... Ne lipseşte de multe ori managementul... Nu mă dezic de tradiţie, din contră, ar trebui să redescoperim tradiţiile, pentru a avea un agroturism sustenabil, care ar crea cu adevărat zone de interes turistic, adevărate “patrimonii naţionale de bunăstare”. Acestea ar atrage turişti, turiştii ar aduce cash, cash-ul ar fi reinvestit etc. Asta înseamnă dezvoltare durabilă....\n- Că tot suntem în pragul unui An Nou. Când uiţi de Chef Cezar, dacă te-ai afla în faţa unei expoziţii a... vieţii, după ce ai întinde în primul rând mâna ca să-ţi pui în farfurie ?\n- Expoziţie a vieţii... ce frumos sună! Îmi doresc să fim sănătoşi, să ne bucurăm de tot ceea ce ne înconjoară şi, chiar şi cele mai mici bucurii să se transforme în mari succese. Să încercăm să redescoperim simplitatea. Că tot vin sărbătorile de iarnă, să ne aşezăm în jurul mesei şi să ne aducem aminte ce eram noi şi cum eram odinioară. Dacă mă întrebaţi şi ce aş vrea să mănânc, am să vă spun că gust cu plăcere, sarmale şi tot ce înseamnă mâncare specifică sărbătorilor de iarnă la români! Pentru 2013 ? Urez să fiţi buni, suntem o naţie de oameni excepţionali! Am un prieten bun, Uica Mihai, un bănăţean get beget, ce încheie de fiecare dată cu excepţionala urare: “Fereşte-ne Doamne de rău, că de bine ne-ai ferit pâna acum!”\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU

În Europa, continentul civilizaţiilor antice, 2012 a marcat împlinirea a 20 de ani de la deschiderea parcului Disneyland Paris, ocazie cu care celebra paradă de care alegorice a fost înlocuită cu un spectacol de sunet, lumini şi fântâni realizat în faţa palatului Cenuşăresei. Gazda ,,Disney Dreams\" este nimeni altul decât îndrăgitul Petre Pan, care ajutat de către Tinkerbell reuşeşte să spună povestea lui Disney ce a strâns la un loc toate personajele create.

\r\n\r\nMereu în schimbare şi tot timpul în pas cu moda, Disneyland oferă vizitatorilor săi două noi premiere minunate pe două continente, atât de diferite dar care împart aceeaşi iubire pentru basme şi poveşti magice - Europa şi America.

Basme de trezit părinţii
\r\nA fost odată ca niciodată un tărâm magic, unde un prinţ şi o prinţesă se luptau cu bestii, vrăjitori răi sau piraţi necruţători. De-a lungul deceniilor acest tărâm a devenit din ce în ce mai iubit de copii, adolescenţi, părinţi şi bunici.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/DisneyLAX-2012-412.jpg\" "\\"DisneyLAX")
\r\n\r\nÎncepând din 1955, spaţiul magic al ,,binelui ce învinge răul\" reprezentat prin parcuri de distracţie, a cucerit întreaga Terră, creând un mit în jurul poveştilor sale.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/DisneyLAX-2012-445.jpg\" "\\"DisneyLAX")
\r\n\r\nAdunaţi la un foc de tabără, organizat de către gazdele noastre de la Hilton Huntington Anaheim, cu o ţepuşă în mână, 2 biscuiţi, o tabletă de ciocolată şi un marshmallow, cu contururile unor desene animate îndrăgite de copii, stăteam pe plajă, sub clar de lună şi ne aduceam aminte de aventurile unei zile întregi în ţara lui Mickey Mouse. Deşi în mod tradiţional la un astfel de foc de tabără se povesteau istorioare de groază, în cazul de faţă ne-am împărtăşit impresiile trăite în aventuri plăcute. Întotdeauna mi-au plăcut povestirile fermecate, cu regi, regine şi printese al căror final va fi mereu fericit. În toată nebunia poveştilor, marshmallows se rumeneau în focul de tabără, ciocolata se topea pe biscuiţi, iar noi ne bucuram de o seară liniştită. Povestea mea începea la intrarea în parcul Disneyland din Anaheim, unde am fost întâmpinaţi de însuşi Mickey Mouse care ne-a invitat să ne aventurăm în tărâmul de basm. Intrarea se face pe lângă gara coborâtă parcă dintr-un film Western, după care se trece pe lângă primărie şi se ajunge pe Bulevard. La capătul lui poate fi admirat magicul castel al Frumoasei din pădurea adormită. În spatele Bulevardului se regăsesc numeroase alte atracţii inspirate din filmele Disney. Copii mari şi mici ,cu urechiuşe de Minnie Mouse pe cap, prinţi războinici şi printese în rochii de bal, baloane în formă de Pluto sau covrigi care seamănă cu Mickey Mouse, toate te introduc în atmosfera de basm.
Locul unde s-au întâlnit Leul, Cenuşăreasa şi Sirena
\r\nDisneyland Adventure, noua investiţie Disney din Anaheim, promovează numeroase atracţii noi inspirate mai ales din aventurile lui Mickey Mouse şi ai prietenilor lui. Centrul parcului e ocupat de marea roată a lui Mickey, în faţa căreia poţi admira un lac de dimensiuni mari. Seara, lacul e zona de atracţie a tuturor vizitatorilor deoarece aici se petrece spectacolul realizat din jocuri de lumini, sunet şi apă unde zeci de personajele din filme prind viaţă. “World of Colour” este cel mai nou spectacol al Disney California şi unul dintre cele mai fascinante din lume. Atât sub aspect tehnologic cât şi prin desfăşurările artistice. Fundalul nu este acoperit de artificii ci e asigurat de un decor... holografic. În faţa lui sunt proiectate imense jeturi arteziene şi imagini cinetice prin care sunt create contururile celor mai îndrăgite personaje din lumea Disney. Peter Pan, Frumoasa şi Bestia, Cenuşăreasa, Regele Leu, Pochahontas, Alba ca Zăpada, Mickey Mouse, Mica Sirenă şi câte altele.
\r\nZâne, cai albi şi covoare zburătoare la Anaheim
\r\nO experienţa de neuitat o constituie şi şederea în hotelurile Disney unde avem posibilitatea de a cunoaşte artişti (graficieni, pictori, caricaturişti) ce au lucrat la realizarea desenelor animate. Ascultând câte poveşti pot spune despre fiecare personaj Disney, pur şi simplu rămâi magnetizat şi vrei să asculţi tot mai multe. O poveste ce mi-o amintesc este legată de atracţia mea favorită - plimbarea cu barca prin mijlocul păpuşilor îmbrăcate în costume tradiţionale din întreaga lume. Toate cântă în cor ,,It\'s a small world”. Show a fost lansat la Expoziţia Mondială de la New York din 1964. El a reprezentat pavilionul UNESCO şi datorită popularităţii, a fost dezvoltat de Disney. În prezent este una dintre cele mai căutate atracţii ale parcului.\r\nPot spune că spectacolele premieră de la Paris şi Anaheim emoţionează până şi cele mai insensibile inimi. Ele te fac să-ţi doreşti măcar o clipă să redevi copil. Să visezi din nou la poveşti cu zâne bune, prinţi pe cai albi, prinţese închise în turn, gini sau covoare zburătoare. Şi ca la orice final de poveste frumoasă când pleci de acolo să speri că vei trăi fericit până la adânci bătrâneţi. Care sunt oglinzi, fireşte, ale unei tinereţi spirituale veşnice. Ăsta-i mesajul fără vârstă al spectacolelor marca Disneyland. Merită să plecaţi într-o vacanţă pentru a descoperi această lume fabuloasă. Ea aparţine copiilor cu vârste cuprinse între 3 şi... 100 de ani. Chiar şi mai mult.

Delta Dunării, circuitele culturale dar şi turismul activ şi în natură, sunt principalele forme de turism care vor apărea în broşura dedicată României. Catalogul va fi distribuit anul viitor de circa 2.500 de agenţii care vând produsele ITS. Totodată, România va continua să apară în catalogul “City Trips” al turoperatorului, cu destinaţii ca Bucureşti şi Sibiu.\r\nITS Reisen face parte, alături de Jahn Reisen, Tjaereborg, ADAC Reisen, LTUplus, DERTOUR şi Meiers Weltreisen, din divizia de turism a concernului REWE.

Discuţiile oficialilor români au avut loc la WTM Londra 2012. Cu acelaşi prilej au fost abordate şi alte colaborări: cu reprezentanţi ai postului CNN, în vederea diversificării strategiei de promovare a României, în special cu ocazia viitoarei ediţii a Festivalului “George Enescu”, dar şi ca destinaţie de city-break; cu reprezentanţii “Eurosport”, interesaţi de organizarea, în România, a ediţiei de iarnă a Festivalului Olimpic al Tineretului European - FOTE 2013 etc. De asemenea România va colabora cu Bulgaria în scopul unei promovări comune din perspectiva Strategiei Uniunii Europene pentru Regiunea Dunării.

\r\nLesne de înţeles că lupta se duce în principal pe atragerea turistului european. “În ultimul an, Germania şi-a consolidat poziţia printre cele mai iubite destinaţii de vacanţă din Europa înregistrând creşteri semnificative din principalele pieţe furnizoare” – ne explica preşedinta Petra Hedorfer. În 2011 cu o creştere de 7%, comparativ cu anul precedent ţara berii a atras 42,7 milioane de călători din Europa. Astfel Germania a urcat pe locul al doilea ca destinaţie turistică a europenilor, după Spania (+8%), distanţându-se de Franţa care se află în poziţia a treia (+1%), arată statisticile IPK Internaţional.

\r\nCum s-a ajuns aici? Temele cheie pe care s-a concentrat promovarea au contribuit semnificativ la succesul destinaţiei de vacanţă Germania. Prin activităţile sale de marketing, DZT a contribuit activ la creşterea aceastei imagini dinamice. Pe baza tendinţelor principale – cultură, sănătate şi recreere, a dezvoltat liniile de produse turism urban şi city break, turismul de evenimente precum şi cel de afaceri. Acestea reprezintă punctul de pornire al unor campanii tematice alternative precum pentru teme actuale.

\r\nPentru ce merită să vă îndreptaţi în acest an spre Germania? Interlocutorii ne spun că în 2013 vor miza pe… Richard Wagner, fraţii Grimm şi Henry van de Veldes. Compozitorul Wagner va fi aniversat pentru 200 de ani de la naşterea sa cu programe culturale şi artistice extrem de complexe în oraşe unde şi-a lăsat amprenta celebră - Leipzig, Dresda, Nurnberg, Munchen şi Bayreuth. Emblematicii povestitori (comemorare a 150 de ani) vor fi susţinuţi prin “ample acţiuni de mediatizare, relaţii publice şi de presă. Marele arhitect universal, ce va cunoaşte o aniversare de 150 de ani de la naştere, va fi susţinut prin campanii internaţionale de presă. Este un prilej excepţional de a poziţiona Germania pe plan internaţional ca ţară a artei şi a culturii. Prin activităţile noastre de PR, cu ocazia acestor jubilee ne adresăm unui grup ţintă interesat de cultură, pe care dorim să-l inspirăm, astfel încât să selecteze Germania printre primele destinaţii de călătorie şi vacanţă” – a mai declarat Petra Hedorfer. Pe aceeaşi linie 2014 va fi centrat pe promovarea Consiliului de la Konstanz (600 de ani de la întrunire), şi Revoluţia de la Leipzig (25 de ani); 2015 va fi marcat prin comemorarea pictorului Luchas Cranach (500 de ani); 2017 va fi dedicat lui Luther (500 de ani de reformă); iar 2019, va fi dominat de centenarul stilului Bauhaus.

Cu câţiva ani în urmă Germania era percepută preponderent ca ţara ce furnizează cei mai mulţi consumatori de vacanţă din întreaga lume. Aici îşi au sediul aproape toţi marii touroperatori mondiali care vând anual călătorilor germani zeci de milioane de pachete turistice spre tot mapamondul. Mai puţini percep însă această ţară drept o destinaţie de travel ce merită frecventată în orice anotimp. Primul aspect este la fel de valabil şi azi. Cel de-al doilea însă a cunoscut schimbări radicale.\r\n\r\nDe la începutul acestui secol, foarte vizibil şi agresiv în ultimii 5 ani, specialiştii germani din turism au investit enorm pentru a remodela percepţia consumatorilor faţă de această piaţă. O adevărată “cruciadă a promovării”, susţinută de un arsenal de exprimare bine acumulat financiar, a fost pornită în întreaga lume. Ţinta principală, fireşte, a fost incomingul, iar scopul – creşterea numărului de vizitatori. Dar ce ce s-ar îndrepta turiştii spre Germania? Răspunsurile sunt oferite de un sondaj, din care a reieşit că punctele forte ale destinaţiei ar fi: Oraşe şi Cultură, Sănătate şi Recreere, Business Travel, Evenimente şi o categorie Specials, care concentrează multe atracţii inedite. Desigur mai sunt încă vreo 20 de categorii, cotate mai slab, semn că ele se individualizează mai puternic pe alte destinaţii.
\r\nSurpriză: turismul a bătut automobilele şi construcţiile
\r\nVenită la Bucureşti pentru prima dată Petra Hedorfer, Preşedintele Consiliului Director al Organizaţiei Germane pentru Turism (DZT), a făcut o prezentare ilustrată a atuurilor turistice deţinute de ţara pe care o reprezintă. O premieră, pentru că până acum turismul german nu a făcut un asemenea pas pe piaţa românească. Motivul sosirii doamnei Hedorfer l-a constituit deschiderea Reprezentanţei de marketing şi promovare a Germaniei de la Belgrad, care acoperă cu activităţile sale şi România. Dar despre asta ceva mai încolo.\r\n\r\nSectorul turistic german generează 2,9 milioane de locuri de muncă. Numai în 2010 el a contribuit la PIB cu aproape 100 de miliarde de euro (4,4%) devansând industria de automobile (2,3%) dar şi pe cea a construcţiilor care a atins pragul de 4,3%. Aşa arătau datele studiului Asociaţiei Naţionale a Sectorului Turistic (BTW/BMWI). Care mai consemna că turiştii au consumat produse şi servicii în valoare de 278, 3 miliarde de euro, dintre care 115,4 miliarde au fost cheltuite pentru cazare. Aproximativ 30% din volumul cheltuielilor pentru înnoptări (34,1 miliarde de euro) a fost asigurat de turiştii străini. În topul cheltuielilor de consum 10,8 miliarde au fost cheltuite pentru transport, 9,5 miliarde pentru cazare, 5 miliarde pentru gastronomie etc.
\r\nLa concurenţă cu Franţa şi Spania
\r\nLesne de înţeles că lupta se duce în principal pe atragerea turistului european. “În ultimul an, Germania şi-a consolidat poziţia printre cele mai iubite destinaţii de vacanţă din Europa înregistrând creşteri semnificative din principalele pieţe furnizoare” – ne explica preşedinta Petra Hedorfer. În 2011 cu o creştere de 7%, comparativ cu anul precedent ţara berii a atras 42,7 milioane de călători din Europa. Astfel Germania a urcat pe locul al doilea ca destinaţie turistică a europenilor, după Spania (+8%), distanţându-se de Franţa care se află în poziţia a treia (+1%), arată statisticile IPK Internaţional. Şi ca destinaţie culturală Germania ocupă de asemenea o poziţie de top aflându-se pe locul doi imediat după Franţa, în clasamentul celor mai căutate destinaţii turistice culturale ale europenilor. Ştiaţi asta?\r\n\r\nSimpatia pentru destinaţia de vacanţă Germania nu are concurenţă pe plan mondial susţine liderul DZT. “Nu mă refer numai la evoluţia pozitivă a transporturilor de călători ci şi la imaginea excelentă în exterior. Acest fapt este confirmat, printre alte de Anholt-GfK Roper Nation Brand Index (NBI), care evaluează anual imaginea a 50 de ţări după criterii ca: export, puterea executivă, cultură, oameni, turism şi imigraţie/investiţii. Prin valorile ei Germania a ocupat în 2010 şi 2011, locul al doilea ca imagine şi poziţionare între naţiuni. La categoria “destinaţii turistice”, ea a urcat pe locul 8 în 2011 ca opţiune de vacanţă, respectiv pe 5 ca destinaţie culturală de vacanţă.
\r\nTeme cheie: Wagner şi Fraţii Grimm
\r\nCum s-a ajuns aici? Temele cheie pe care s-a concentrat promovarea au contribuit semnificativ la succesul destinaţiei de vacanţă Germania. Prin activităţile sale de marketing, DZT a contribuit activ la creşterea aceastei imagini dinamice. Pe baza tendinţelor principale – cultură, sănătate şi recreere, a dezvoltat liniile de produse turism urban şi city break, turismul de evenimente precum şi cel de afaceri. Acestea reprezintă punctul de pornire al unor campanii tematice alternative precum pentru teme actuale. Destinaţia de vacanţă are de oferit şi în anul 2013 o serie de atracţii culturale pe care DZT le promovează intens ca teme principale.\r\n\r\nPentru ce merită să vă îndreptaţi în acest an spre Germania? Interlocutorii ne spun că în 2013 vor miza pe… Richard Wagner, fraţii Grimm şi Henry van de Veldes. Compozitorul Wagner va fi aniversat pentru 200 de ani de la naşterea sa cu programe culturale şi artistice extrem de complexe în oraşe unde şi-a lăsat amprenta celebră - Leipzig, Dresda, Nurnberg, Munchen şi Bayreuth. Emblematicii povestitori (comemorare a 150 de ani) vor fi susţinuţi prin “ample acţiuni de mediatizare, relaţii publice şi de presă. Marele arhitect universal, ce va cunoaşte o aniversare de 150 de ani de la naştere, va fi susţinut prin campanii internaţionale de presă. Este un prilej excepţional de a poziţiona Germania pe plan internaţional ca ţară a artei şi a culturii. Prin activităţile noastre de PR, cu ocazia acestor jubilee ne adresăm unui grup ţintă interesat de cultură, pe care dorim să-l inspirăm, astfel încât să selecteze Germania printre primele destinaţii de călătorie şi vacanţă” – a mai declarat Petra Hedorfer. Pe aceeaşi linie 2014 va fi centrat pe promovarea Consiliului de la Konstanz (600 de ani de la întrunire), şi Revoluţia de la Leipzig (25 de ani); 2015 va fi marcat prin comemorarea pictorului Luchas Cranach (500 de ani); 2017 va fi dedicat lui Luther (500 de ani de reformă); iar 2019, va fi dominat de centenarul stilului Bauhaus. Turismul adevărat se face cu seriozitate şi viziune.
\r\nŞi apropo de cultură…
\r\nÎncă un mit spulberat. Deşi germanii sunt cunoscuţi ca mari băutori de bere, datorită marelui festival internaţional Octoberfest din Munchen, ei bine, ei sunt cel puţin la fel de mari băutori de vin. Au şi un festival al vinului ce se ţine în una din cele 13 regiuni viticole. Sunt îndrăgostiţi şi de sărbătorile de sfârşit de an, marcând de fiecare dată acest lucru cu cele peste 2.500 de Târguri de Crăciun.\r\n\r\nZestrea istorică şi culturală este depozitată şi cultivată în peste 10.000 de oraşe – nu este nicio greşeală -, cu caracter unic ce conturează imaginea turistică a Germaniei. Metropole incitante – Berlin-ul în special – atrag prin diversitate arhitecturală, muzee, teatre şi săli de concerte , prin oferta de shopping ori prin patrimoniul UNESCO, ce reuneşte 37 de situri, dintre care se evidenţiază monumente istorice, cultura industrială şi peisajele remarcabile ce vorbesc despre această ţară din inima Europei.

\r\nVin la putere tinerii
\r\nPromovarea şi marketingul extern vor avea concentrat mesajul, în 2013, pe ţinta care apropie viitorul de prezent.Youth Travel – Germania este o destinaţie de vacanţă pentru tineret (Hot spots). Reprezintă însă şi un mesaj ce va fi rulat pe termen mediu.\r\n\r\nAceasta este şi o parte din misiunea noii reprezentanţe DZT deschisă la Belgrad ce acoperă activităţile din Europa de Sud Est. Ea activează în parteneriat cu organizaţia Danube Competence Center (DCC) şi se exprimă cu mesaje de marketing şi promovare în ţări ca Bosnia şi Herţegovina, Bulgaria, România, Croaţia, Muntenegru, şi Serbia. După cum declara la Bucureşti Nebojsa Matijasevic, directorul Reprezentanţei DZT pentru Europa de Sud Est “Potenţialul turistic este enorm în Europa de Sud Est. Printr-o strategie dedicată de cercetare de piaţă şi promovare intensivă continuăm fructificarea acestuia. Germania a înregistrat în 2011 un număr de 1,7 milioane de sosiri din ţări amintite. Acest volum ar putea depăşi 2 milioane de sosiri până în 2020, printr-o creştere medie de trei procente. Printr-o poziţionare strategică aceste pieţe pot fi atinse eficient din Belgrad.”\r\n\r\nÎn opţiunile de călătorie ale turiştilor români Germania se situează pe locul al treilea, după Ungaria şi Bulgaria. Ca o idee românii au realizat în 2011 circa 473.000 de călătorii în Germania marcând o creştere a numărului de sosiri comparativ cu anul precedent de 11%. 35% dintre turişti au călătorit cu scopul de a-şi petrece concediul în Germania, iar durata medie a şederii a fot 17,4 nopţi. Bugetul mediu cheltuit pe zi de români este de 48 de euro, un nivel bun comparativ cu turiştii sosiţi aici din ţările sud-estice.

Sloganul care îl însoţeşte este “Bulgaria - A Discovery to Share” El va fi lansat oficial pe plan internaţional în septembrie 2013. Potrivit lui Ivo Marinov - liderul responsabil cu turismul în cadrul Ministerului bulgar al Economiei, Energiei şi Turismului -, noul brand a fost dezvoltat după o analiză a percepţiei şi ofertei actuale a Bulgariei ca destinaţie turistică dar şi atuuriile pe care le deţine comparativ cu destinaţii concurente.
\r\nConceptul a beneficiat de finanţare europeană în cadrul Programului Operaţional de Dezvoltare Regională. Investiţia pe partea de branding s-a ridicat la 700.000 de euro. Creatorii brandului au luat în considerare rezultatele sondajelor efectuate în 11 ţări din Europa şi Asia. Conceputul vizual al brandului principal dar şi a altor 10 sub-branduri regionale au fost testate în 15 ţări, în rândul a peste 2.000 de reprezentanţi ai industriei turistice.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Brand-bulgaria-2013.jpg\" "\\"Brand")
\r\n“Bulgaria - A Discovery to Share” descrie ţara drept o destinaţie prietenoasă, fermecătoare şi încă nedescoperită. În afara brandului turistic naţional şi a sloganului, au fost create 10 sub-branduri ce fac parte din strategia de branding pentru zonele ţării. De asemenea a fost realizat şi un brand pilot pentru regiunea Trakia. Ministerul de profil estimează în primii 5 ani de implementare a strategiei de promovare, ca numărul vizitatorilor să crească cu 25%, iar în 10-15 ani numărul acestora să se dubleze. Promovarea noului brand se va concentra în principal pe atragerea turiştilor din patru ţări: România, Germania, Rusia şi Marea Britanie – a mai subliniat Ivo Marinov.\r\n2013 – Care sunt Capitalele culturale europene !\r\n\r\n
\r\nMarsilia şi Kosice au fost numite capitale culturale europene pentru acest an. Lansarea programelor a fost anunţată de către preşedintele Comisiei Europene, Jose Manuel Barroso. „Capitala europeană a culturii” este unul dintre cele mai cunoscute proiecte, pe care Uniunea Europeană l-a transformat în tradiţie cu o vechime de 25 de ani.
\r\nMarsilia şi întreaga regiune se află într-un amplu proces de dezvoltare şi reevaluare a atracţiilor lor. Numeroase restaurări arhitectonice, conversiuni sau proiecte pentru 60 de atracţii care au presupus o investiţie de peste 660 milioane de euro. Marsilia -Provence include în proiectul cultural 97 de comunităţi, de la metropola cunoscută în toată lumea până la sate de munte şi regiuni naturale de o frumuseţe unică. Agenda de manifestări include circa 400 de evenimente culturale, 80 de expoziţii, concerte, târguri etc. Ele vor fi găzduite, printre altele, de Muzeul civilizaţiei europene şi mediteraneene (MUCEM), Centrul Mediteranean Regional (CEREM), Panorama – Friche de la Belle de Mai, Fondul de Artă Contemporană (FRAC), toate din Marsilia, Conservatorul de muzică din Aix en Provence etc.\r\n\r\nKosice va fi promovat drept locul de întâlnire al vechilor drumuri către Orient şi Occident. Dintre atracţiile oraşului slovac amintim de Piaţa centrală, unde se vor desfăşura numeroase festivalul artistice; Catedrala Sf. Elisabeta unde sunt depuse, din 1906, osemintele lui Francisc Rakoczi al-II-lea, principe al Transilvaniei; Casa Rakoczi, devenită muzeu; Turnul oraşului care adăposteşte Muzeul Mineralogic; Palatul lui Iacob datând din secolul al XIX-lea, ce a servit temporar, în 1945, ca locuinţa preşedintelui Cehoslovaciei; Columna Ciumei, un monument cu o înălţime de 14 metri, ce aminteşte de epidemia devastatoare din 1710; Muzeul Slovaciei de Est, unde sunt expuse colecţii istorice, de artă tradiţională etc.\r\n\r\nNominalizarea la categoria de “Capitală europeană a culturii”, constituie o oportunitate majoră de a stimula revitalizarea pe termen lung a patrimoniilor din localităţile respective. Un alt avantaj îl constituie atragerea unui număr mare de turişti, care vor contribui la prosperitatea economică a localităţilor amintite. Un asemenea titlul generează în medie o creştere cu 12% a numărului de vizitatori care aleg destinaţia pentru cel puţin o noapte.

INTRARE PE PIAŢĂ\r\nCIŞMIGIU, VINTAGE, PARIS
\r\nÎn urma unei investiţii de 15 milioane de euro compania spaniolă Hercesa a reintrodus în circuitul turistic Hotelul Cişmigiu. Clădirea, care astăzi are o funcţionalitate mult mai complexă – adăpostind nu numai hotelul ci şi spaţii de business, o librărie Humanitas şi sediul Institutului Cultural Spaniol Cervantes -, are o vechime de 100 de ani. Aici a funcţionat din 1912 unul dintre hotelurile de referinţă ale Micului Paris – unul dintre simbolurile Bucureştiului interbelic -, Hotelul Palace, cunoscut ulterior ca Hotel Cişmigiu.\r\n\r\nProcesul de renovare şi modernizare a clădirii a trecut prin mai multe etape. În 2004, dezvoltatorul spaniol Hercesa a cumpãrat clãdirea Cişmigiu şi a demarat un proces amplu de consolidare şi reconstrucţie. Încă de la începutul lucrãrilor, echipele de arhitecţi şi constructori şi-au fundamentat planurile şi acţiunile pe o idee importantã: clãdirea trebuia să păstreze la nivel arhitectural acelaşi aspect elegant pe care l-a avut în momentul inaugurării din 1912. Dacă faţada originală a conservat elementele arhitecturale de la începutul secolului 20, interiorul a fost reconstruit de la zero. El beneficiază de echipamente hoteliere moderne şi confortabile. Decorul modern se îmbină inspirat cu accente ale vremurilor trecute iar atmosfera creatã conferã o personalitate şi o profunzime aparte acestui loc. De obicei arhitecţii care dau viaţă unor asemenea proiecte sunt uitaţi în detrimentul cifrelor investiţionale. Noi n-o facem. Reconversia Hotelului Cişmigiu este rezultatul unei echipe româno-spaniole de arhitecţi. Din ea fac parte prof. dr. Emil Barbu Popescu, preşedintele Universităţii de Arhitectură şi Urbanism „Ion Mincu”, de al cărui nume sunt legate creaţii ca Sediul Federaţiei Române de Fotbal – Casa Fotbalului, Casa Olimpică şi Muzeul Sportului. El a condus şi echipa română la proiectarea Arenei Naţional „Lia Manoliu”. Elena Saricu, absolventă a şcolii elveţiene Accademia di Architetura di Mendrisio (UNISI), este realizatoarea a mai multe proiecte pentru ansambluri rezidenţiale promovate de Hercesa. Echipa a fost consolidată de biroul spaniol de arhitectură Bufete de Proyectos Catalan & Solano ce deţine o experienţă de peste 30 de ani în proiecte rezidenţiale dar şi în reabilitarea unor clădiri istorice la Madrid, Guadalajara etc.\r\n\r\n„Clãdirea Cişmigiu” a fost prima achiziţie a dezvoltatorului imobiliar Hercesa în România. Este proiectul nostru de suflet şi suntem încrezãtori cã va fi un succes şi îşi va recâştiga locul în inima bucureştenilor, agenţiilor de turism şi turiştilor”, menţiona la inaugurare Mauricio Mesa Gomez, directorul Hercesa. Mauricio ne-a declarat că sunt prevăzute şi alte investiţii în clădiri istorice amplasate în centrul Capitalei. În prezent, sunt analizate cinci clădiri istorice din Bucureşti, iar pentru două proprietăţi sunt negocieri avansate. Modelul de business al investiţiilor viitoare este însă diferit faţă de hotel Cişmigiu, unde compania a achiziţionat clădirea monument istoric şi apoi a renovat-o. Pentru celalalte proiecte, Hercesa doreşte înfiinţarea unor joint-venture-uri cu proprietarii unor clădiri istorice.\r\n\r\nGeorgeta Grecu, directorul Hotelului Cişmigiu, arăta că în viziunea echipei pe care o conduce „vom promova hotelul ca pe un spaţiu în care te poţi retrage pentru a te destinde şi a te pregăti pentru evenimentele din ziua urmãtoare. Când eşti prins între douã destinaţii, cu agenda încãrcatã de întâlniri, simţi nevoia confortului, a siguranţei şi a liniştii de acasã. Serviciile prietenoase şi standardele ridicate sunt reperele principale cărora ne dedicăm munca. Subliniez faptul cã hotelul respectã regulile unui comportament eco-responsabil, oferind în acelaşi timp maximum de confort şi relaxare”. Clasificat la 4 stele Hotel Cişmigiu oferă 60 de apartamente cu suprafeţe cuprinse între 38 şi 50 metri pãtraţi. Ele au fost concepute pentru sejururi de scurtã şi lungã duratã. Un alt moment aşteptat pentru această primăvară este inaugurarea Berăriei Gambrinus, o locaţie istorică, reamenajată la parterul hotelului Cişmigiu ca şi intrarea în circuit a restaurantului Roof Top de la etajul 6 al clădirii. În ceea ce priveşte Berăria ea va fi operată independent de o firmă a omului de afaceri Ion Borzea. Suprafaţa localului este de aproximativ 180 metri pătraţi cu un open space de 150 de locuri la mese şi la bar. Renovarea locaţiei a presupus o investiţie de 150.000 de euro. Furnizorul de bere pentru Gambrinus este Heineken.
\r\nBRANDURI ÎN MIŞCARE\r\nAkantus Hotel a intrat în familia Ramada
\r\nAkantus Hotel din Cluj s-a alăturat familiei Ramada Worldwide devenind astfel cel mai nou Ramada din România. Localizat în centrul de business, turistic dar şi istoric al oraşului Cluj Napoca complexul oferă 100 de camere, un întreg etaj Executive cu acces la facilităţi de Executive Lounge, 4 săli de conferinţe, El răspunde şi cerinţelor de relaxare şi petrecere a timpului liber, prin cele două restaurante şi Centrul Wellness Spa, singurul de acest gen cu vedere panoramică la 360 de grade. Proiectul a fost dezvoltat de către Trend Hospitality Consulting & Management - companie condusă de Tinu Sebeşanu -, care a asigurat afilierea hotelului la lanţul internaţional Ramada. ”Cluj Napoca este unul din cele mai importante oraşe din România şi a fost una din destinaţiile prioritare pentru Ramada. Drept urmare ne bucurăm că am reuşit aceasta afiliere împreună cu EuroTrend Grup, spre beneficiul investitorilor dar şi al oaspeţilor” - a declarat Lucian Marinescu, Senior Associate al Trend Hospitality.\r\n\r\n„Din perspectiva proprietarului, printre avantaje se numără vizibilitatea, rezonanţa şi poziţionarea brandului Ramada şi accesarea unor canale de vânzări noi, motiv pentru care ne aşteptăm la o creştere a cifrei de afaceri în 2013” – apreciază Răzvan Tarmure, Director General al EuroTrend Grup.

AVEM MAI MULTE HOTELURI !\nCu toate dificultăţile întâmpinate de investitori, în 2012 numărul camerelor de hotel din Bucureşti a cunoscut o creştere de 9% comparativ cu anul precedent. În prezent metropola deţine circa 11.550 de camere care sunt operate de 161 de hoteluri ce fac parte din lanţuri internaţionale, naţionale sau pur şi simplu sunt independente. Această dinamică se simte şi în ţară.
\nINTRARE PE PIAŢĂ\nCIŞMIGIU, VINTAGE, PARIS
\nÎn urma unei investiţii de 15 milioane de euro compania spaniolă Hercesa a reintrodus în circuitul turistic Hotelul Cişmigiu. Clădirea, care astăzi are o funcţionalitate mult mai complexă – adăpostind nu numai hotelul ci şi spaţii de business, o librărie Humanitas şi sediul Institutului Cultural Spaniol Cervantes -, are o vechime de 100 de ani. Aici a funcţionat din 1912 unul dintre hotelurile de referinţă ale Micului Paris – unul dintre simbolurile Bucureştiului interbelic -, Hotelul Palace, cunoscut ulterior ca Hotel Cişmigiu.\n\nProcesul de renovare şi modernizare a clădirii a trecut prin mai multe etape. În 2004, dezvoltatorul spaniol Hercesa a cumpãrat clãdirea Cişmigiu şi a demarat un proces amplu de consolidare şi reconstrucţie. Încă de la începutul lucrãrilor, echipele de arhitecţi şi constructori şi-au fundamentat planurile şi acţiunile pe o idee importantã: clãdirea trebuia să păstreze la nivel arhitectural acelaşi aspect elegant pe care l-a avut în momentul inaugurării din 1912. Dacă faţada originală a conservat elementele arhitecturale de la începutul secolului 20, interiorul a fost reconstruit de la zero. El beneficiază de echipamente hoteliere moderne şi confortabile. Decorul modern se îmbină inspirat cu accente ale vremurilor trecute iar atmosfera creatã conferã o personalitate şi o profunzime aparte acestui loc. De obicei arhitecţii care dau viaţă unor asemenea proiecte sunt uitaţi în detrimentul cifrelor investiţionale. Noi n-o facem. Reconversia Hotelului Cişmigiu este rezultatul unei echipe româno-spaniole de arhitecţi. Din ea fac parte prof. dr. Emil Barbu Popescu, preşedintele Universităţii de Arhitectură şi Urbanism „Ion Mincu”, de al cărui nume sunt legate creaţii ca Sediul Federaţiei Române de Fotbal – Casa Fotbalului, Casa Olimpică şi Muzeul Sportului. El a condus şi echipa română la proiectarea Arenei Naţional „Lia Manoliu”. Elena Saricu, absolventă a şcolii elveţiene Accademia di Architetura di Mendrisio (UNISI), este realizatoarea a mai multe proiecte pentru ansambluri rezidenţiale promovate de Hercesa. Echipa a fost consolidată de biroul spaniol de arhitectură Bufete de Proyectos Catalan & Solano ce deţine o experienţă de peste 30 de ani în proiecte rezidenţiale dar şi în reabilitarea unor clădiri istorice la Madrid, Guadalajara etc.\n\n„Clãdirea Cişmigiu” a fost prima achiziţie a dezvoltatorului imobiliar Hercesa în România. Este proiectul nostru de suflet şi suntem încrezãtori cã va fi un succes şi îşi va recâştiga locul în inima bucureştenilor, agenţiilor de turism şi turiştilor”, menţiona la inaugurare Mauricio Mesa Gomez, directorul Hercesa. Mauricio ne-a declarat că sunt prevăzute şi alte investiţii în clădiri istorice amplasate în centrul Capitalei. În prezent, sunt analizate cinci clădiri istorice din Bucureşti, iar pentru două proprietăţi sunt negocieri avansate. Modelul de business al investiţiilor viitoare este însă diferit faţă de hotel Cişmigiu, unde compania a achiziţionat clădirea monument istoric şi apoi a renovat-o. Pentru celalalte proiecte, Hercesa doreşte înfiinţarea unor joint-venture-uri cu proprietarii unor clădiri istorice.\n\nGeorgeta Grecu, directorul Hotelului Cişmigiu, arăta că în viziunea echipei pe care o conduce „vom promova hotelul ca pe un spaţiu în care te poţi retrage pentru a te destinde şi a te pregăti pentru evenimentele din ziua urmãtoare. Când eşti prins între douã destinaţii, cu agenda încãrcatã de întâlniri, simţi nevoia confortului, a siguranţei şi a liniştii de acasã. Serviciile prietenoase şi standardele ridicate sunt reperele principale cărora ne dedicăm munca. Subliniez faptul cã hotelul respectã regulile unui comportament eco-responsabil, oferind în acelaşi timp maximum de confort şi relaxare”. Clasificat la 4 stele Hotel Cişmigiu oferă 60 de apartamente cu suprafeţe cuprinse între 38 şi 50 metri pãtraţi. Ele au fost concepute pentru sejururi de scurtã şi lungã duratã. Un alt moment aşteptat pentru această primăvară este inaugurarea Berăriei Gambrinus, o locaţie istorică, reamenajată la parterul hotelului Cişmigiu ca şi intrarea în circuit a restaurantului Roof Top de la etajul 6 al clădirii. În ceea ce priveşte Berăria ea va fi operată independent de o firmă a omului de afaceri Ion Borzea. Suprafaţa localului este de aproximativ 180 metri pătraţi cu un open space de 150 de locuri la mese şi la bar. Renovarea locaţiei a presupus o investiţie de 150.000 de euro. Furnizorul de bere pentru Gambrinus este Heineken.
\nBRANDURI ÎN MIŞCARE\nAkantus Hotel a intrat în familia Ramada
\nAkantus Hotel din Cluj s-a alăturat familiei Ramada Worldwide devenind astfel cel mai nou Ramada din România. Localizat în centrul de business, turistic dar şi istoric al oraşului Cluj Napoca complexul oferă 100 de camere, un întreg etaj Executive cu acces la facilităţi de Executive Lounge, 4 săli de conferinţe, El răspunde şi cerinţelor de relaxare şi petrecere a timpului liber, prin cele două restaurante şi Centrul Wellness Spa, singurul de acest gen cu vedere panoramică la 360 de grade. Proiectul a fost dezvoltat de către Trend Hospitality Consulting & Management - companie condusă de Tinu Sebeşanu -, care a asigurat afilierea hotelului la lanţul internaţional Ramada. ”Cluj Napoca este unul din cele mai importante oraşe din România şi a fost una din destinaţiile prioritare pentru Ramada. Drept urmare ne bucurăm că am reuşit aceasta afiliere împreună cu EuroTrend Grup, spre beneficiul investitorilor dar şi al oaspeţilor” - a declarat Lucian Marinescu, Senior Associate al Trend Hospitality.\n\n„Din perspectiva proprietarului, printre avantaje se numără vizibilitatea, rezonanţa şi poziţionarea brandului Ramada şi accesarea unor canale de vânzări noi, motiv pentru care ne aşteptăm la o creştere a cifrei de afaceri în 2013” – apreciază Răzvan Tarmure, Director General al EuroTrend Grup.
\nDISTINCŢII INTERNAŢIONALE\nWyndham Group trimite un premiu la Oradea
\nCu ocazia decernării premiilor anuale pentru Europa, Orientul Mijlociu şi Africa, decernate la Londra, Wyndham Hotel Group a acordat distincţia “Hotelul Anului” din reţeaua proprie complexului Ramada din Oradea. Selecţia a fost făcut din peste 190 de hoteluri cu acest brand ce activează pe 3 continente. Distincţia câştigată echivalează cu un Oscar în domeniul hotelier.

Ne-am propus să consolidăm în continuare nivelul serviciilor dedicate. Îi asigurăm pe clienţi că vor găsi în continuare standardele ridicate şi calitatea pe care o caută la un hotel Ramada” - a subliniat Romeo Ionescu, directorul general al hotelului.\n\nBrandul Ramada este reprezentat pe piaţa naţională de compania Trend Hospitality, care acţioneaza ca partener strategic în Romania, Bulgaria şi Moldova. Ea deţine exclusivitatea de francizare a următoarelor branduri din portofoliul Wyndham Hotel Group: Ramada Worldwide, Super 8 Motel şi Days Inn.

\r\n\r\n\r\nProgramul „Two Castles in One Day” promovat de către compania Travel Maker continuă să fie foarte solicitat.

\r\n\r\nCunoscutul site de călătorii TripAdvisor a dat publicităţii topurile celor mai bune hoteluri din diferite ţări, realizate pe baza opiniilor şi gradului de satisfacţie consemnat de turiştii care le-au frecventat. În Topul 25 hoteluri din România în 2012 se află unităţi consacrate dar şi hoteluri mai mici care s-au impus prin serviciile personalizate ce au reţinut atenţia. Cum era de aşteptat cele mai numeroase hoteluri din clasament activează în Capitală. Alături de acestea au apărut şi unităţi remarcabile din alte oraşe ale ţării. Locul 1 a revenit complexului Little Texas (Iaşi). El este secondat de Ramada Hotel & Suites Bucharest Nord, Epoque (Bucureşti), Hilton (Sibiu), J.W.

Istoria consemnează numeroase aprecieri în acest sens, celebră rămânând şi azi cea a împăratului Franz Josef, ce a numit Borsecul drept “Regina Apelor minerale”. Ce nu ştiţi este că în staţiune a fost finalizată anul trecut o investiţie plină de şarm. Chiar în centru a fost recuperată o veche clădire, ce a fost renovată şi inclusă în circuitul turistic. Cei care au locuit deja aici VILLA BELLA spun că este cea mai frumoasă din Borsec. Vila vă aşteaptă cu 12 camere cu paturi duble, 3 apartamente cu câte 4 paturi fiecare şi 10 paturi suplimentare. Fiecare cameră are dotări moderne: TV, frigider, baie proprie, conexiune la internet, servicii de jacuzzi şi saună.\n\nAmplasată lângă Aleea Îndrăgostiţilor, la marginea pădurii, ea este amplasată la doar câteva sute de metrii de pârtiile de schi.

A XXIX-a ediţie a acestei manifestări va fi organizată de Romexpo în parteneriat cu Camerele de Comert şi Industrie teritoriale, ANAT, FPTR, ANTREC şi OPTBR la Centrul Expoziţional din Bucureşti. “Târgul de Turism al României îşi propune să contribuie la consolidarea acestei industrii, atât prin promovarea atracţiilor turistice şi a serviciilor aferente, cât şi prin organizarea de seminarii menite să aducă în atenţia autorităţilor dificultăţile din acest domeniu” – a declarat Mariana Suciu, directorul general al Romexpo.\n\nLa Braşov, între 29 şi 31 martie va avea loc a VI-ea ediţie a Transylvania Tourism Fair, organizat în sălile expoziţionale ale complexului Braşov Business Park. Sorin Dencescu, directorul general al Krontur Expo, antreprenorul Târgului, este de părere că manifestarea va fi cel puţin la fel de complexă ca ultimele ediţii, publicul vizitator arătându-se, chiar şi în condiţii de criză, interesat de noile oferte apărute pe piaţă. “Sunt convins că pachetele turistice tip early booking, se vor vinde foarte bine, în condiţiile în care agenţiile prezente vor veni la Braşov cu cataloagele şi ofertele pentru viitorul sezon turistic” – ne-a precizat Dencescu.\n\nCUM S-AR SPUNE, AUSTRIECII NE IUBESC\n\nPeste 218.000 de turişti austrieci au vizitat România în 2010, în creştere cu aproape 14% faţă de anul precedent, iar cheltuielile acestora au fost estimate la 52 milioane de euro, a declarat Simion Giurcă, directorul Biroului de Turism al Romaniei in Austria. Giurcă consideră că această creştere se va menţine şi în 2013. Austriecii sunt interesaţi în ţara noastră de circuite culturale, călătorii în natură, programe de turism urban şi croaziere pe Dunăre până în Delta Dunării. O parte din acest interes este stimulat la fiecare început de an la „Ferien-Messe Wien 2013”. A 38-a ediţie a atras peste 800 de expozanţi (printre care circa 20 de travel agenţi români) din peste 70 de ţări.

\r\n\r\nAm avut în faţă o oportunitate turistică de mare calibru.

Am fost implicat ca jurnalist în activităţile Centrului de Presă şi pot spune cu mândrie că acea competiţie a avut un mare impact internaţional. Economic dar şi social. Turismul, aşa centralizat cum era el, a fost ambasadorul mesajelor pozitive despre România. După 32 de ani ne-am adjudecat o altă competiţie olimpică internaţională. Dacă nu mă înşel e chiar prima Olimpiadă de iarnă (chiar şi numai pentru tineret). M-aş fi aşteptat ca promovarea ei să înceapă să bubuie pe plan internaţional cu cel puţin un an înainte. Frumos împachetată în ambalajul turistic, plimbată pe la târgurile de travel internaţionale, pe canalele internaţionale de sport, în reviste, pe site-uri, pe bloguri etc. Cine ar fi câştigat ?

„Dacă şti misterul facerii vinurilor, dacă guşti şi recunoşti vinurile, dacă ştii să fii înţelept şi să aştepţi vinurile, dacă ştii istoria vinurilor, dacă respecţii vinurile, dacă te interesează lumea vinurilor, dacă eşti un curios al vinurilor, dacă vrei întotdeauna să ai un client satisfăcut, fie că este amator de vinuri sau nu, dacă ştii toate acestea fără să devii vanitos, orgolios şi îngâmfat...

Sergiu Mihail Nedelea este o figură cunoscută pe piaţa someleriei. Acum vorbim deja de autorul unei cărţi ce poartă un titlu modest în comparaţie cu conţinutul său – „Caietul Somelierului, Ghid pentru aspiranţi şi profesionişti”. În cele 200 de pagini care n-au nici pe departe intenţia de a se constitui într-un manual didactic, sunt etalate cunoştinţe despre culturile de viţă de vie, despre cum să „citeşti” un vin, despre etichete, butoaie, baricuri, sticle, dopuri, ştiinţă, design sau lux. Toate sunt legate de vin, pentru că vinul este o fiinţă vie, care deci se naşte, creşte, se maturizează şi moare. Asta-i viaţa. Amplu ilustrată cartea este susţinută de aproape toţi marii producători autohtoni de vinuri, cu pagini de publicitate şi promovare. Sergiu Nedelea subliniază de mai multe ori că există un limbaj al vinului, iar în acest scop merită să mai decupăm un citat: „Trebuie să ne obişnuim şi cu gândul că există şi lucruri care se construiesc în veacuri, chiar dacă trăim în epoca vitezei. Civilizaţia este unul dintre ele, iar civilizaţia vinului, ca parte integrantă a conceptului general, nu face excepţie.

Cascada se află pe Valea Minişului, la gura Poneasca, în Banat, şi poartă numele Bigar ca şi al peşterii din apropiere. Realizatorii site-ului descriu cascada a fi drept una dintre cele mai frumoase din lume şi datorită modului cum se scurge apa pe suprafeţele pietroase. În plus, ea este amplasată exact pe Paralela 45. Locul doi în top a revenit Eternal Flame Falls, o cascadă de mici dimensiuni din rezervaţia americană Shale Creek, de lângă New York. Locul al treilea e ocupat de cascada Asik-Asik din Filipine. Aceasta se află în localitatea Alamada, are 60 de metri înălţime şi o lăţime de 140 metri.

Pădurea Hoia-Baciu din judeţul Cluj se află în Top 5 al celor mai bântuite păduri din lume. Asta în viziunea televiziunii BBC. Jurnaliştii britanici apreciază că pădurea din Transilvania atrage atenţia de peste o jumătate de secol pentru locurile sale misterioase. Locuitorii oraşelor din apropiere susţin că pădurea – care are o poiană circulară în centru – este un portal, iar cei care trec prin acesta s-ar putea să nu se mai întoarcă niciodată din timp şi spaţiu. Copacii, despre care se spune că erau odată drepţi şi înalţi, sunt acum răsuciţi în noduri, mai scrie BBC.

Decizia a fost luată la cea de-a 7-a sesiune a Comitetului Interguvernamental de Protejare a Patrimoniului Cultural Imaterial ce s-a desfăşurat, la finele anului trecut, la Paris. Potrivit site-ului UNESCO, confecţionarea ceramicii de Horezu este considerat un meşteşug tradiţional unic, practicat de barbaţii şi de femeile din partea nordică a judeţului Vâlcea. Procesul de prrelucrare a acesteia este divizat: în timp ce bărbaţii se ocupă cu extragerea lutului, care este, ulterior, curăţat, frământat şi amestecat, femeile decorează obiectele folosind tehnici şi instrumente specifice, cu care desenează modele specifice zonei tradiţionale Horezu. UNESCO a precizat că tehnicile, arta şi cunoştintele asociate ceramicii de Horezu sunt markeri simbolici pentru identitatea comunităţii din Horezu şi Olari. Înscrierea meşteşugului ceramicii de Horezu în lista reprezentativă a UNESCO va contribui la cooperarea cu alţi meşteşugari din alte zone în scopul promovării respectului pentru diversitate culturală şi creativitate umană.\n\nCe a descoperit The World Geography !\n\nConform unui clasament realizat de site-ul The World Geography, Cascada Bigar din România ocupă primul loc în Topul celor mai frumoase cascade din lume. Cascada se află pe Valea Minişului, la gura Poneasca, în Banat, şi poartă numele Bigar ca şi al peşterii din apropiere. Realizatorii site-ului descriu cascada a fi drept una dintre cele mai frumoase din lume şi datorită modului cum se scurge apa pe suprafeţele pietroase. În plus, ea este amplasată exact pe Paralela 45. Locul doi în top a revenit Eternal Flame Falls, o cascadă de mici dimensiuni din rezervaţia americană Shale Creek, de lângă New York. Locul al treilea e ocupat de cascada Asik-Asik din Filipine. Aceasta se află în localitatea Alamada, are 60 de metri înălţime şi o lăţime de 140 metri. Apa cascadei ar avea puteri magice, care vindecă oamenii.\n\n \n\nEUROMONITOR: Bucureştiul a fost pe 56\n\nConform Euromonitor International în 2011, ca urmare a relansării economice mondiale, turismul a cunoscut o creştere a cererii, ceea ce a avut un impact pozitiv asupra circulaţiei turistice în primele 100 de oraşe ale lumii, unde sosirile au crescut cu o medie de 7%. Specialiştii europeni au întocmit un top al celor mai vizitate oraşe la nivel mondial. Astfel Bucureştiul ocupa locul 56, cu 2,35 milioane de sosiri. Primul loc este deţinut de Hong Kong cu 21,8 milioane vizitatori, urmat de Singapore cu 19,8 milioane, Londra cu 15,1 milioane, Kuala Lumpur cu 13,3 milioane şi Macau cu 12,9 milioane. Cel mai bine plasat oras est-european în acest clasament este Budapesta care ocupa locul 25, cu 4,4 milioane de vizitatori. Ultimul loc a revenit oraşului Zurich care a înregistrat 1,42 milioane vizitatori în 2011.\n\nBBC caută păduri... bântuite\n\nPădurea Hoia-Baciu din judeţul Cluj se află în Top 5 al celor mai bântuite păduri din lume. Asta în viziunea televiziunii BBC. Jurnaliştii britanici apreciază că pădurea din Transilvania atrage atenţia de peste o jumătate de secol pentru locurile sale misterioase. Locuitorii oraşelor din apropiere susţin că pădurea – care are o poiană circulară în centru – este un portal, iar cei care trec prin acesta s-ar putea să nu se mai întoarcă niciodată din timp şi spaţiu. Copacii, despre care se spune că erau odată drepţi şi înalţi, sunt acum răsuciţi în noduri, mai scrie BBC. Aceeaşi pădure a fost inclusă de curând într-un Top realizat de revista americană Travel+Leisure, care, de asemenea, o plasa printre cele mai infricoşătoare păduri din lume.\nDesele apariţii din ultimele două decenii ale unor aspecte stranii în pădurea Hoia-Baciu au stârnit interesul unor echipe de cercetători români al fenomenelor paranormale.

După ce a fost importat de la americani de revistele mondene termenul începe să se impună şi în industria hotelieră. Aici el desemnează surpriza clientului în faţa experienţelor incredibile şi rafinate, pe care le trăiesc în noile complexe care se poziţionează pe piaţă. Kronwell este cel mai tânăr membru al acestei comunităţi de afaceri. Pre-openingul făcut în prezenţa unor lideri ai administraţiei braşovene, proiectanţilor (Bogart) şi constructorilor, al travel agenţilor, hotelierilor dar şi al presei de specialitate, a smuls cel puţin trei WOW.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Kronwell-Brasov-060.jpg\" "\\"Kronwell")
\r\nPrimul, pentru designul pe care l-a promovat pe piaţă, o lucrare plină de rafinament, ce poziţionează hotelul pe segmentul de business confortabil. Al doilea aspect îl constituie tehnologiile încorporate în dotarea camerelor care dau posibilitatea turiştilor de a-şi combina experienţele în funcţie de… dorinţe. De la un pahar de şampanie servit în baie până la o testare de vinuri în compania facebook-ului ori a corespondenţelor de email. În fine, al treilea WOW ar reveni conceptului „Life in Styile”, care se impune prin culori armonioase şi simplitatea sofisticată, ce vibrează în fiecare detaliu. Confortul şi creativitatea definesc fiecare dintre cele 81 de camere. Pentru manifestări şi întâlniri de afaceri vă stă la dispoziţie Sala Kronwell Ballroom cu o capacitate de 275 de persoane şi alte spaţii multifuncţionale. Toate permit personalizarea evenimentului într-un cadru exclusivist. Reprezentantul Bogart a anunţat, la inaugurarea oficială, că valoarea per metru pătrat construit s-a ridicat la circa 1.000 de euro ceea ce reprezintă un deal foarte bun. Investiţia totală se va ridica la circa 14,5 milioane de euro, asta dacă luăm în calcul şi complexul de welness şi Spa care se află în stadiu de organizare şi modelare. Serviciile de pe acest segment sunt reunite în conceptul Belaqva Beauty Elements (zeci de proceduri cu terapii începând de la cele aromo şi cromo până la saună, fitness, yoga, hidromasaj, cabine saline etc). În sala de Fitness cu o dimensiune de 300 de metri pătraţi sunt oferite servicii online, conexiune internet permanentă, astfel că oaspeţii hotelului se pot informa şi coresponda permanent.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Kronwell-Brasov-110.jpg\" "\\"Kronwell")
\r\nCe alte puncte forte are acest hotel? Ioana Dobrescu, (în urmă cu un an unul dintre liderii ANAT) este directorul de PR a complexului. Domnia sa ne-a declarat că „Atunci când am creat hotelul, filosofia noastră a fost clară. Să oferim o experienţă unică în care confortul reprezintă doar o… invitaţie de deschidere. Să oferim mai mult decât se aşteaptă clientul. O experienţă nouă, o provocare de neuitat. Avem numeroase facilităţi de business. Aş putea spune că sloganul, pe care încă nu l-am definitivat, ar putea suna cam aşa: „Produs integrat cu servicii personalizate” Sau invers. Prin apariţia hotelului au fost create peste 100 de locuri de muncă iar media de vârstă a celor care oferă serviciile în interiorul său este de circa 30 de ani. Deci avem o echipă tânără, flexibilă, bine antrenată în spiritul conceptului promovat. În ceea ce priveşte structura consumatorilor în mod evident ţinta noastră sunt grupurile active şi dinamice, cei care vin să îmbine segmentele de leisure şi business, dar şi turiştii individuali aflaţi în căutarea unor noi provocări hoteliere.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Kronwell-Brasov-128.jpg\" "\\"Kronwell")
\r\nProcesul nostru de branding a durat mai bine de 3 luni. Denumirea de Kronwell exprimă numele Kronstadt ori Korona, aşa cum era cunoscut în vechime Braşovul, iar în partea a doua ideea de ospitalitate Welcome şi Welness. Mai amintesc că lucrăm foarte bine cu travel agenţi locali şi naţionali, prin care oferim clienţilor noştri experienţe exterioare de la şcolile de schi, turism activ de aventură, turism pentru copii şi familii pentru weekend, numeroase alte programe combinate.”\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Kronwell-Brasov-160.jpg\" "\\"Kronwell")
\r\nDaniel Popescu, proprietarul Kronwell ne-a declarat că: „Acest hotel nu este o staţie finală. E doar un început. Vom merge cu acest concept şi în alte oraşe. Când? În funcţie de succesul pe care îl vom avea la Braşov îl vom dezvolta poate sub forma unui lanţ independent. Cine ştie!”\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Kronwell-Brasov-1751.jpg\" "\\"Kronwell")

După ce a fost importat de la americani de revistele mondene termenul începe să se impună şi în industria hotelieră. Aici el desemnează surpriza clientului în faţa experienţelor incredibile şi rafinate, pe care le trăiesc în noile complexe care se poziţionează pe piaţă. Kronwell este cel mai tânăr membru al acestei comunităţi de afaceri. Pre-openingul făcut în prezenţa unor lideri ai administraţiei braşovene, proiectanţilor (Bogart) şi constructorilor, al travel agenţilor, hotelierilor dar şi al presei de specialitate, a smuls cel puţin trei WOW.\n\nPrimul, pentru designul pe care l-a promovat pe piaţă, o lucrare plină de rafinament, ce poziţionează hotelul pe segmentul de business confortabil. Al doilea aspect îl constituie tehnologiile încorporate în dotarea camerelor care dau posibilitatea turiştilor de a-şi combina experienţele în funcţie de… dorinţe. De la un pahar de şampanie servit în baie până la o testare de vinuri în compania facebook-ului ori a corespondenţelor de email. În fine, al treilea WOW ar reveni conceptului „Life in Styile”, care se impune prin culori armonioase şi simplitatea sofisticată, ce vibrează în fiecare detaliu. Confortul şi creativitatea definesc fiecare dintre cele 81 de camere. Pentru manifestări şi întâlniri de afaceri vă stă la dispoziţie Sala Kronwell Ballroom cu o capacitate de 275 de persoane şi alte spaţii multifuncţionale. Toate permit personalizarea evenimentului într-un cadru exclusivist. Reprezentantul Bogart a anunţat, la inaugurarea oficială, că valoarea per metru pătrat construit s-a ridicat la circa 1.000 de euro ceea ce reprezintă un deal foarte bun. Investiţia totală se va ridica la circa 14,5 milioane de euro, asta dacă luăm în calcul şi complexul de welness şi Spa care se află în stadiu de organizare şi modelare. Serviciile de pe acest segment sunt reunite în conceptul Belaqva Beauty Elements (zeci de proceduri cu terapii începând de la cele aromo şi cromo până la saună, fitness, yoga, hidromasaj, cabine saline etc). În sala de Fitness cu o dimensiune de 300 de metri pătraţi sunt oferite servicii online, conexiune internet permanentă, astfel că oaspeţii hotelului se pot informa şi coresponda permanent.\n\nCe alte puncte forte are acest hotel? Ioana Dobrescu, (în urmă cu un an unul dintre liderii ANAT) este directorul de PR a complexului. Domnia sa ne-a declarat că „Atunci când am creat hotelul, filosofia noastră a fost clară. Să oferim o experienţă unică în care confortul reprezintă doar o… invitaţie de deschidere. Să oferim mai mult decât se aşteaptă clientul. O experienţă nouă, o provocare de neuitat. Avem numeroase facilităţi de business. Aş putea spune că sloganul, pe care încă nu l-am definitivat, ar putea suna cam aşa: „Produs integrat cu servicii personalizate” Sau invers. Prin apariţia hotelului au fost create peste 100 de locuri de muncă iar media de vârstă a celor care oferă serviciile în interiorul său este de circa 30 de ani. Deci avem o echipă tânără, flexibilă, bine antrenată în spiritul conceptului promovat. În ceea ce priveşte structura consumatorilor în mod evident ţinta noastră sunt grupurile active şi dinamice, cei care vin să îmbine segmentele de leisure şi business, dar şi turiştii individuali aflaţi în căutarea unor noi provocări hoteliere.\n\nProcesul nostru de branding a durat mai bine de 3 luni. Denumirea de Kronwell exprimă numele Kronstadt ori Korona, aşa cum era cunoscut în vechime Braşovul, iar în partea a doua ideea de ospitalitate Welcome şi Welness. Mai amintesc că lucrăm foarte bine cu travel agenţi locali şi naţionali, prin care oferim clienţilor noştri experienţe exterioare de la şcolile de schi, turism activ de aventură, turism pentru copii şi familii pentru weekend, numeroase alte programe combinate.”\n\nDaniel Popescu, proprietarul Kronwell ne-a declarat că: „Acest hotel nu este o staţie finală. E doar un început. Vom merge cu acest concept şi în alte oraşe. Când? În funcţie de succesul pe care îl vom avea la Braşov îl vom dezvolta poate sub forma unui lanţ independent. Cine ştie!”\n\nHotelul Kronwell poate fi considerat un hotel de 5 stele luxury. Este amplasat chiar în apropierea Gării centrale a Braşovului. Vi se pare puţin cam „excentric”? Şi asta face parte din invitaţia de a trăi o nouă experienţă turistică. De frecventat neapărat.

Ştiţi ce arome şi savoare are tricolorul românesc? Vă spune Dumitru Burtea. Tot el vă va introduce în lumea gastronomiei internaţionale unde olimpiadele profesionale au cel puţin acelaşi prestigiu ca toate competiţiile similare sportive.

\r\nInterlocutorul meu - din nefericire puţini ştiu acest lucru - e o legendă vie a gastronomiei naţionale şi internaţionale. Cuvinte mari? Nicidecum. Dumitru Burtea este singurul român din toate timpurile ales, în urmă cu vreo 15 ani Membru de onoare al World Association of Chefs Societies – WACS. Azi el este Preşedinte de Onoare al ANBCT şi preşedinte al Euro-Toques România. Dar umbra directorului Burtea e vie şi azi la Braşov, în localuri ca Şura Dacilor, Coliba Haiducilor, Cerbul Carpatin, Stâna Turistică, Cetate, cărora le-a dat un farmec unic în sud-estul Europei.

Aş fi putut fi mare crescător de cai !
\r\n- Observ azi că deşi industria hotelieră şi de restauraţie se află în plină expansiune găseşti din ce în ce mai puţin oameni care se gândesc la o carieră în gastronomie. A scăzut percepţia pozitivă asupra acestei arte în comparaţie cu timpul în care v-aţi format ?\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/burtea-6.jpg\" "\\"burtea")
- Să fiu sincer şi cu dumneavoastră şi cu cititorii. Eu nu am venit la Bucureşti să mă fac bucătar. Viaţa a lucrat în favoarea mea. M-am născut în comuna Ulmu, pe 3 ianuarie 1940. Era o aşezare bogată din judeţul Călăraşi, amplasată pe marginea lacului Mostiştea. Mama, Lucia Burtea, a rămas văduvă de război la 26 de ani. Ea m-a împins spre oraş în timp de fraţii tatălui vroiau să rămân în sat, să cumpărăm cai şi să facem agricultură în stil mare. Dar mama a fost foarte fermă când a spus: “Tu trebuie să mergi la oraş, să ajungi medic, că nu eşti bun de munca câmpului!”. Chestiunea cu medicina îi rămăsese de la fratele cel mare care fusese felcer în timpul războiului, iar ulterior a studiat la Cluj şi a devenit doctor. Aşa am plecat spre Capitală. Dorinţa mamei nu s-a putut realiza. Pentru că în acea perioadă grea, când trebuia să iau o decizie, familia mea a fost “trecută” la chiaburi. Şi pentru asta n-am avut dreptul să urmez o şcoală superioară. Dar tot la halat alb am ajuns printr-un concurs de împrejurări. Au existat oameni de bună credinţă care mi-au eliberat o adeverinţă conform căreia veneam dintr-o familile de mijlocaşi. Am reuşit să mă înscriu la Şcoala profesională din Viilor care pe atunci se numea “Şcoala de bucătari, cofetari şi ospătari”, în fapt Şcoala comercială nr.2. O mână de ajutor mi-a întins şi sora mea - Silvia Niculescu - care se aşezase de mai multă vreme la oraş. Era un timp tulbure prin 1955. În 1958 am devenit prima promoţie de... meseriaşi. N-am să uit niciodată doi oameni care mi-au inflenţat toată viaţă. Elena Vasilescu, care avea ca pregătire o şcoală de menaj şi Ion Anghel coborau la nivelul fiecărui tânăr pentru a-l înţelege şi ulterior a-i descoperi calităţile. Ne-au fost ca nişte părinţi. Învăţam la prima şcoală profesională la care aveam o uniformă aparte, diferită de cea din “pătură” îmbâcsită, cum purtau ceferiştii, militarii etc. Am fost nişte răsfăţaţi prin educaţia pe care ne-au insuflat-o.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/burtea-61.jpg\" "\\"burtea")
Maeştrii bucătari aveau o ţinută princiară!
\r\n- Cum aţi ajuns în bucătărie ?
\r\n- Încă din anul doi noi făceam practică trei zile pe săptămână. Restul îl acopereau cursurile teoretice. Pentru că nu toate unităţile hoteliere ale vremii erau dotate cu echipamente corespunzătoare între elevi exista o întrecere pentru a obţine cele mai bune note şi rezultate. Cei mai perseverenţi am făcut practică la complexe reprezentative din Capitală, cum erau Athenee Palace, Capşa, Cina, Ambasador. Lido încă nu apăruse. Eu am fost repartizat din anul doi la Athenee.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/burtea-10.jpg\" "\\"burtea")
- Care era pe atunci atmosfera la acest hotel de lux ?
\r\n- Aici m-am îndrăgostit şi mai mult de meserie. Ştiţi cum e vorba, pofta vine mâncând. Şi, cu timpul, mi-am dat seama că gastronomia ca şi medicina este o profesie...albă. Pentru că medicul are multe asemenări cu bucătarul. La Athenee, se vorbea încă franceza. Toate meniurile, comenzile, reţetele erau în franceză. Maeştri bucătari erau foarte pedanţi, curaţi, străluceau, aveau o ţinută, aş spune princiară. Credeţi-mă că nu exagerez. Mi-l amintesc pe Victor Neagu, care participase deja la Expoziţiile Universale din 1937 şi 1938, de la New York şi Paris, locuri unde au avut loc spectacole mari nu numai de gastronomie, în prim plan cu artişti ca Maria Tănase, Fănică Luca etc. Tot la restaurantul acestui hotel era şi bucătarul Anton Herlea Anton, nimeni altul decât tatăl viitorul mare bariton Nicolae Herlea. Alţi bucătari ce se formaseră la Viena şi Paris, au lucrat la renumite Curţi regale şi princiare. Această atmosferă mi-a modelat un comportament aparte. Şi, credeţi-mă, că de atunci mi-am dat seama că lumea gastronomiei e cel puţin la fel de fascinantă ca aceea a medicinei.
\r\nCând “Napoleon” te bate pe umăr şi-ţi spune nepoate !
\r\n- O mare parte din carieră o datoraţi Braşovului şi Poienei Braşov. Aţi străbătut un drum impresionant. De la bucătar, şef de staţiune până la director general la “ONT Carpaţi” şi “Poiana Braşov”. Aici aţi cunoscut un tip legendar – Şerbănică!
\r\n- Poiana Braşov încă nu se construise. Şerbănică, sau “Napoleon”, cum îl cunoştea toată lume pe Şerban Andreescu, a fost mentorul multor generaţii de făcători de turism, şi implicit de bucătari. Eu nu aveam buletin de Bucureşti. În momentul în care acesta a venit să selecteze pe cei mai buni elevi din promoţia noastră, eu m-am numărat printre cei 4 bucătari şi 6 cofetari care am plecat să lucrăm la ONT Carpaţi Braşov, care pe acea veme se numea TAP Carpaţi Braşov. Era în 28 iulie 1958. Şerbănică era o figură carismatică iar pentru viaţa noastră profesională a însemnat enorm. Nu făcuse multă şcoală dar avea un fel aparte de a-şi apropia oamenii. Îndrăgea tineretul. Pe toţi îi câştiga, poate n-o să credeţi, cu un simplu gest. Ne bătea pe umăr şi ne spunea...nepoate! Dintr-o dată te apropia şi te includea în familia lui. Era în acelaşi timp un tip dur, exigent. Aş mai spune că te obliga, prin comportarea lui, să faci lucruri minunate. Şi noi de asta aveam nevoie pentru că, orice aş spune, eram nişte copii.
\r\nIstoria a început să curgă de la Paris
\r\n- A existat un tren al norocului în viaţa dumneavoastră ?
\r\n- A fost o şansă. Trenul a trecut printr-o gară care s-a numit Paris. Ministrul comerţului interior pe acea vreme, Levente, care se ocupa concomintent de construirea bazelor turistice de pe litoral şi de la munte a ajuns la concluzia că toate investiţiile trebuiau dublate şi cu oameni foarte bine pregătiţi, care să poată face faţă viitoarelor cerinţe ale turiştilor străini. De aceea mulţi tineri, directori sau nu, au urmat în străinătate, pe banii statului român, stagii şi cursuri de pregătire. Eu am prins un val extraordinar. Am plecat la Şcoala Tehnică Hotelieră “Jean Drouant”, unde am studiat, timp de doi ani, între 1964-1966, arta restauraţiei şi gastronomiei. Dar nu m-am oprit aici. Mai târziu am făcut Academia de Studii Economice din Bucureşti, iar când am absolvit-o, în 1970, am obţinut, pe baza unui examen profesional, titlul de “Maestru în arta culinară”. De atunci a curs o întreagă istorie ca şi pentru alţi colegi ai mei, printre care Florea Stan, un mare bucătar care a lucrat şi în Germania, Oprea Marin, care după ce a urmat facultatea a devenit director al hotelului Ambasador din Bucureşti, Măriuţa Zamfira, mai târziu profesor ce a predat cursuri de cofetărie şi patiserie, la Liceul Economic.
\r\n\r\n40 de ani, parcă a fost ieri
\r\n- În 2011 aţi sărbătorit 40 de ani de la înfiinţarea Asociaţiei Naţionale a Bucătarilor şi Cofetarilor din Turism (ANBCT), al cărui membru fondator aţi fost. Mai precis pe 27 noiembrie. Este cea mai veche asociaţie de breaslă din turism. Cât de mare este distanţa dintre ce aţi urmărit la înfiinţarea organizaţiei şi ceea ce a devenit ea azi ?
\r\n- A trebuit să fim în rândul lumii. În noiembrie 1971 mii de bucătari, cofetari şi patiseri au fondat această asociaţie. Prima conferinţa a fost găzduită de Sala Rapsodia de pe Lipscani şi a reunit oameni de stat şi persoane inimoase. Câteva dintre ele merită amintirea noastră cu riscul firesc de a le omite pe altele: Constantin Berbece, primul preşedinte al organizaţiei, Nichita Georgescu, director general în Ministerul Turismului, Ion Zidaru, Ion Tutilă, Mina Ilisei, Aneta Chirvăsuţă, Sofica Todirică, Ion Ungureanu, Ion Craioveanu, Ion Negrea, Gheorghe Han, Ion Câmpeanu, Simion Gheorghe, Dumitru Istrate, Ilie Bumbac, Florea Buşcă, Gheorghe Vătafu, Ion Vintilă etc. Scopul, valabil şi azi, a fost de a contribui la ridicarea şi alinierea artei culinare la standardele internaţionale. Nu întâmplător la puţin timp am aderat la World Association of Chefs Societies (WACS), unde am devenit membri cu drepturi depline. Acest drum ne-a facilitat informarea şi participarea la mari competiţii internaţionale, printre care şi olimpiadele de gastronomie. Pentru cei care nu ştiu merită să amintesc că acestea, veritabile competiţii internaţionale, se organizează din anul 1896.
\r\n\r\nPerioada lui Gheorghiu Dej a marcat o mare deschidere\r\n\r\n- Avea valoare şcoala de gastronomie înainte de 1990 ?
\r\n- Unii încearcă să acrediteze ideea că lumea, deci şi arta culinară românească, s-a născut odată cu ei după ’90. Dar realitatea este că avem o tradiţie profundă. Oamenii care au lucrat între cele două războaie mondiale au ridicat la mare rang bucătăria noastră. După război a venit o perioadă foarte grea. Ei au înaintat în vârstă dar au lăsat în locul lor alte generaţii. Esenţial a fost că şi-au pregătit oameni. Această tradiţie a reuşit să fie implementată prin şcoli. Anii ´65, perioada lui Gheorghe Gheorghiu Dej, au marcat o mare deschidere. Şcolile profesionale au pregătit mulţi tineri talentaţi. Majoritatea copiilor veneau de la ţară, ca şi mine. Lăsasem greul în urmă şi aveam ambiţia să facem ceva bine şi, în secret, să nu ne mai întoarcem de unde am plecat. Puţini dintre copiii răsfăţaţi din Bucureşti au devenit ulterior artişti şi maeştrii bucătari. Am îndrăgit această profesie şi artă, grea de altfel, pe care am dus-o mai departe. Era şi o perioadă efervescentă, în care se construiau foarte multe hoteluri. Atunci turismul ca şi gastronomia noastră erau pe val, cum s-ar spune. Aveam acţiuni şi manifestări promoţionale în diferite zone furnizoare de turişti străini: Anglia, Germania, Franţa, Ţările Scandinave, Italia etc. După anii ´80 a urmat o perioadă de stagnare, datorată mai ales penuriei de materii prime. Cu toate acestea România a avut vârfuri care au cîştigat zeci de medalii de aur, argint şi bronz la concursuri şi olimpiade internaţionale. Tot atât de adevărat este că o parte din oamenii care au împins bucătăria românească înainte n-au fost neapărat bucătari. Un Şerbănică la Braşov, un Sever Dogaru, Polizache, la Bucureşti, un Constantin Trandafir apărut mai târziu, pe Litoral.
\r\n\r\nŞi turismul de masă a avut momentul lui de glorie
\r\n- În ce măsură a afectat turismul de masă bucătăria autohtonă ?
\r\n- Sincer vorbind el a plafonat gastronomia. Dar vorbim de o anumită perioadă în care nu numai în ţările socialiste era la modă turismul de masă. Dacă privim lucrurile în acest context observăm că acel concept răspundea unor tendinţe mai largi ale vremii. Turismul intern a avut - în perioada ´65-´85 - ca scop principal odihna şi refacerea oamenilor muncii, iar turismul internaţional deţinea şi el o componentă destul de consistentă de acest gen. De altfel, dacă privim atent în ultimii ani, industria modernă de vacanţe din întreaga lume, a reluat multe dintre componente turismului de masă, cu un mare succes. Apariţia curselor charter, extrem de accesibile, a regenerat dorinţa turistului individual de a se regrupa. În materie de gastronomie, până la urmă sistemul all-inclusive reprezintă o extensie, ce-i drept mult mai elevată şi mai variată, a preparării mâncării pentru structurile turistice de masă.
\r\n\r\nAşa-i frumos în viaţă, să dăruieşti o parte din ce ai primit
\r\n- Care este cel mai important proiect pe care nu l-aţi materializat ?
\r\n- Un Institut, o Academie de gastronomie. Prin aceasta România ar creşte în rang. Tânăra generaţie ar avea o motivaţie în plus de a accede spre o carieră. Aş dori să ne copieze, apoi să ne depăşească. Aici nu e vorba numai de muncă ci şi de timp, răbdarea şi bani. Să prospere apoi şi, la rândul lor să facă ceea ce au făcut înaintaşii pentru ei. Pentru că aşa-i frumos în viaţă, să dăruieşti o parte din ce ai primit de-a lungul vieţii. O academie de gastronomie nu este o utopie. Pentru a o constitui nu sunt suficiente numai eforturile ANBCT şi Euro-Toques. E nevoie în principal de o consolidare naţională, de bunăvoinţa şi înţelegerea profundă a fenomenului din partea guvernanţilor. Noi ne vedem de treabă pentru că nu-ţi poţi păstra respectabilitatea în lume dacă nu participi la competiţiile internaţionale. Câştigi sau nu, trebuie să fi acolo. Aşa au făcut-o bucătarii, patiserii şi cofetarii români la Viena, Salzburg, Moscova, Kremlin, Glasgow, Milano, Basel, Istanbul, Tokio, Kyoto, Auckland, Erfurt, Lucerna, Luxemburg, Torino, Helsinki, şi după cum vă spuneam, la început, la Lyon.

Ştiţi ce arome şi savoare are tricolorul românesc? Vă spune Dumitru Burtea. Tot el vă va introduce în lumea gastronomiei internaţionale unde olimpiadele profesionale au cel puţin acelaşi prestigiu ca toate competiţiile similare sportive. Maeştrii bucătari sau echipele naţionale, care acced în vârful clasamentului primesc toate onorurile, de la ridicarea steagului până la intonarea imnului ţării pe care o reprezintă cu succes.\n\nInterlocutorul meu - din nefericire puţini ştiu acest lucru - e o legendă vie a gastronomiei naţionale şi internaţionale. Cuvinte mari? Nicidecum. Dumitru Burtea este singurul român din toate timpurile ales, în urmă cu vreo 15 ani Membru de onoare al World Association of Chefs Societies – WACS. Azi el este Preşedinte de Onoare al ANBCT şi preşedinte al Euro-Toques România. Dar umbra directorului Burtea e vie şi azi la Braşov, în localuri ca Şura Dacilor, Coliba Haiducilor, Cerbul Carpatin, Stâna Turistică, Cetate, cărora le-a dat un farmec unic în sud-estul Europei. Cum a ajuns în această elită ?\n
Aş fi putut fi mare crescător de cai !
\n- Observ azi că deşi industria hotelieră şi de restauraţie se află în plină expansiune găseşti din ce în ce mai puţin oameni care se gândesc la o carieră în gastronomie. A scăzut percepţia pozitivă asupra acestei arte în comparaţie cu timpul în care v-aţi format ?\n
- Să fiu sincer şi cu dumneavoastră şi cu cititorii. Eu nu am venit la Bucureşti să mă fac bucătar. Viaţa a lucrat în favoarea mea. M-am născut în comuna Ulmu, pe 3 ianuarie 1940. Era o aşezare bogată din judeţul Călăraşi, amplasată pe marginea lacului Mostiştea. Mama, Lucia Burtea, a rămas văduvă de război la 26 de ani. Ea m-a împins spre oraş în timp de fraţii tatălui vroiau să rămân în sat, să cumpărăm cai şi să facem agricultură în stil mare. Dar mama a fost foarte fermă când a spus: “Tu trebuie să mergi la oraş, să ajungi medic, că nu eşti bun de munca câmpului!”. Chestiunea cu medicina îi rămăsese de la fratele cel mare care fusese felcer în timpul războiului, iar ulterior a studiat la Cluj şi a devenit doctor. Aşa am plecat spre Capitală. Dorinţa mamei nu s-a putut realiza. Pentru că în acea perioadă grea, când trebuia să iau o decizie, familia mea a fost “trecută” la chiaburi. Şi pentru asta n-am avut dreptul să urmez o şcoală superioară. Dar tot la halat alb am ajuns printr-un concurs de împrejurări. Au existat oameni de bună credinţă care mi-au eliberat o adeverinţă conform căreia veneam dintr-o familile de mijlocaşi. Am reuşit să mă înscriu la Şcoala profesională din Viilor care pe atunci se numea “Şcoala de bucătari, cofetari şi ospătari”, în fapt Şcoala comercială nr.2. O mână de ajutor mi-a întins şi sora mea - Silvia Niculescu - care se aşezase de mai multă vreme la oraş. Era un timp tulbure prin 1955. În 1958 am devenit prima promoţie de... meseriaşi. N-am să uit niciodată doi oameni care mi-au inflenţat toată viaţă. Elena Vasilescu, care avea ca pregătire o şcoală de menaj şi Ion Anghel coborau la nivelul fiecărui tânăr pentru a-l înţelege şi ulterior a-i descoperi calităţile. Ne-au fost ca nişte părinţi. Învăţam la prima şcoală profesională la care aveam o uniformă aparte, diferită de cea din “pătură” îmbâcsită, cum purtau ceferiştii, militarii etc. Am fost nişte răsfăţaţi prin educaţia pe care ne-au insuflat-o.\n
Maeştrii bucătari aveau o ţinută princiară!
\n- Cum aţi ajuns în bucătărie ?
\n- Încă din anul doi noi făceam practică trei zile pe săptămână. Restul îl acopereau cursurile teoretice. Pentru că nu toate unităţile hoteliere ale vremii erau dotate cu echipamente corespunzătoare între elevi exista o întrecere pentru a obţine cele mai bune note şi rezultate. Cei mai perseverenţi am făcut practică la complexe reprezentative din Capitală, cum erau Athenee Palace, Capşa, Cina, Ambasador. Lido încă nu apăruse. Eu am fost repartizat din anul doi la Athenee.\n
- Care era pe atunci atmosfera la acest hotel de lux ?
\n- Aici m-am îndrăgostit şi mai mult de meserie. Ştiţi cum e vorba, pofta vine mâncând. Şi, cu timpul, mi-am dat seama că gastronomia ca şi medicina este o profesie...albă. Pentru că medicul are multe asemenări cu bucătarul. La Athenee, se vorbea încă franceza. Toate meniurile, comenzile, reţetele erau în franceză. Maeştri bucătari erau foarte pedanţi, curaţi, străluceau, aveau o ţinută, aş spune princiară. Credeţi-mă că nu exagerez. Mi-l amintesc pe Victor Neagu, care participase deja la Expoziţiile Universale din 1937 şi 1938, de la New York şi Paris, locuri unde au avut loc spectacole mari nu numai de gastronomie, în prim plan cu artişti ca Maria Tănase, Fănică Luca etc. Tot la restaurantul acestui hotel era şi bucătarul Anton Herlea Anton, nimeni altul decât tatăl viitorul mare bariton Nicolae Herlea. Alţi bucătari ce se formaseră la Viena şi Paris, au lucrat la renumite Curţi regale şi princiare. Această atmosferă mi-a modelat un comportament aparte. Şi, credeţi-mă, că de atunci mi-am dat seama că lumea gastronomiei e cel puţin la fel de fascinantă ca aceea a medicinei.
\nCând “Napoleon” te bate pe umăr şi-ţi spune nepoate !
\n- O mare parte din carieră o datoraţi Braşovului şi Poienei Braşov. Aţi străbătut un drum impresionant. De la bucătar, şef de staţiune până la director general la “ONT Carpaţi” şi “Poiana Braşov”. Aici aţi cunoscut un tip legendar – Şerbănică!
\n- Poiana Braşov încă nu se construise. Şerbănică, sau “Napoleon”, cum îl cunoştea toată lume pe Şerban Andreescu, a fost mentorul multor generaţii de făcători de turism, şi implicit de bucătari. Eu nu aveam buletin de Bucureşti. În momentul în care acesta a venit să selecteze pe cei mai buni elevi din promoţia noastră, eu m-am numărat printre cei 4 bucătari şi 6 cofetari care am plecat să lucrăm la ONT Carpaţi Braşov, care pe acea veme se numea TAP Carpaţi Braşov. Era în 28 iulie 1958. Şerbănică era o figură carismatică iar pentru viaţa noastră profesională a însemnat enorm. Nu făcuse multă şcoală dar avea un fel aparte de a-şi apropia oamenii. Îndrăgea tineretul. Pe toţi îi câştiga, poate n-o să credeţi, cu un simplu gest. Ne bătea pe umăr şi ne spunea...nepoate! Dintr-o dată te apropia şi te includea în familia lui. Era în acelaşi timp un tip dur, exigent. Aş mai spune că te obliga, prin comportarea lui, să faci lucruri minunate. Şi noi de asta aveam nevoie pentru că, orice aş spune, eram nişte copii.
\nIstoria a început să curgă de la Paris
\n- A existat un tren al norocului în viaţa dumneavoastră ?
\n- A fost o şansă. Trenul a trecut printr-o gară care s-a numit Paris. Ministrul comerţului interior pe acea vreme, Levente, care se ocupa concomintent de construirea bazelor turistice de pe litoral şi de la munte a ajuns la concluzia că toate investiţiile trebuiau dublate şi cu oameni foarte bine pregătiţi, care să poată face faţă viitoarelor cerinţe ale turiştilor străini. De aceea mulţi tineri, directori sau nu, au urmat în străinătate, pe banii statului român, stagii şi cursuri de pregătire. Eu am prins un val extraordinar. Am plecat la Şcoala Tehnică Hotelieră “Jean Drouant”, unde am studiat, timp de doi ani, între 1964-1966, arta restauraţiei şi gastronomiei. Dar nu m-am oprit aici. Mai târziu am făcut Academia de Studii Economice din Bucureşti, iar când am absolvit-o, în 1970, am obţinut, pe baza unui examen profesional, titlul de “Maestru în arta culinară”. De atunci a curs o întreagă istorie ca şi pentru alţi colegi ai mei, printre care Florea Stan, un mare bucătar care a lucrat şi în Germania, Oprea Marin, care după ce a urmat facultatea a devenit director al hotelului Ambasador din Bucureşti, Măriuţa Zamfira, mai târziu profesor ce a predat cursuri de cofetărie şi patiserie, la Liceul Economic.
\n\n40 de ani, parcă a fost ieri
\n- În 2011 aţi sărbătorit 40 de ani de la înfiinţarea Asociaţiei Naţionale a Bucătarilor şi Cofetarilor din Turism (ANBCT), al cărui membru fondator aţi fost. Mai precis pe 27 noiembrie. Este cea mai veche asociaţie de breaslă din turism. Cât de mare este distanţa dintre ce aţi urmărit la înfiinţarea organizaţiei şi ceea ce a devenit ea azi ?
\n- A trebuit să fim în rândul lumii. În noiembrie 1971 mii de bucătari, cofetari şi patiseri au fondat această asociaţie. Prima conferinţa a fost găzduită de Sala Rapsodia de pe Lipscani şi a reunit oameni de stat şi persoane inimoase. Câteva dintre ele merită amintirea noastră cu riscul firesc de a le omite pe altele: Constantin Berbece, primul preşedinte al organizaţiei, Nichita Georgescu, director general în Ministerul Turismului, Ion Zidaru, Ion Tutilă, Mina Ilisei, Aneta Chirvăsuţă, Sofica Todirică, Ion Ungureanu, Ion Craioveanu, Ion Negrea, Gheorghe Han, Ion Câmpeanu, Simion Gheorghe, Dumitru Istrate, Ilie Bumbac, Florea Buşcă, Gheorghe Vătafu, Ion Vintilă etc. Scopul, valabil şi azi, a fost de a contribui la ridicarea şi alinierea artei culinare la standardele internaţionale. Nu întâmplător la puţin timp am aderat la World Association of Chefs Societies (WACS), unde am devenit membri cu drepturi depline. Acest drum ne-a facilitat informarea şi participarea la mari competiţii internaţionale, printre care şi olimpiadele de gastronomie. Pentru cei care nu ştiu merită să amintesc că acestea, veritabile competiţii internaţionale, se organizează din anul 1896.
\n\nPerioada lui Gheorghiu Dej a marcat o mare deschidere\n\n- Avea valoare şcoala de gastronomie înainte de 1990 ?
\n- Unii încearcă să acrediteze ideea că lumea, deci şi arta culinară românească, s-a născut odată cu ei după ’90. Dar realitatea este că avem o tradiţie profundă. Oamenii care au lucrat între cele două războaie mondiale au ridicat la mare rang bucătăria noastră. După război a venit o perioadă foarte grea. Ei au înaintat în vârstă dar au lăsat în locul lor alte generaţii. Esenţial a fost că şi-au pregătit oameni. Această tradiţie a reuşit să fie implementată prin şcoli. Anii ´65, perioada lui Gheorghe Gheorghiu Dej, au marcat o mare deschidere. Şcolile profesionale au pregătit mulţi tineri talentaţi. Majoritatea copiilor veneau de la ţară, ca şi mine. Lăsasem greul în urmă şi aveam ambiţia să facem ceva bine şi, în secret, să nu ne mai întoarcem de unde am plecat. Puţini dintre copiii răsfăţaţi din Bucureşti au devenit ulterior artişti şi maeştrii bucătari. Am îndrăgit această profesie şi artă, grea de altfel, pe care am dus-o mai departe. Era şi o perioadă efervescentă, în care se construiau foarte multe hoteluri. Atunci turismul ca şi gastronomia noastră erau pe val, cum s-ar spune. Aveam acţiuni şi manifestări promoţionale în diferite zone furnizoare de turişti străini: Anglia, Germania, Franţa, Ţările Scandinave, Italia etc. După anii ´80 a urmat o perioadă de stagnare, datorată mai ales penuriei de materii prime. Cu toate acestea România a avut vârfuri care au cîştigat zeci de medalii de aur, argint şi bronz la concursuri şi olimpiade internaţionale. Tot atât de adevărat este că o parte din oamenii care au împins bucătăria românească înainte n-au fost neapărat bucătari. Un Şerbănică la Braşov, un Sever Dogaru, Polizache, la Bucureşti, un Constantin Trandafir apărut mai târziu, pe Litoral.
\n\nŞi turismul de masă a avut momentul lui de glorie
\n- În ce măsură a afectat turismul de masă bucătăria autohtonă ?
\n- Sincer vorbind el a plafonat gastronomia. Dar vorbim de o anumită perioadă în care nu numai în ţările socialiste era la modă turismul de masă. Dacă privim lucrurile în acest context observăm că acel concept răspundea unor tendinţe mai largi ale vremii. Turismul intern a avut - în perioada ´65-´85 - ca scop principal odihna şi refacerea oamenilor muncii, iar turismul internaţional deţinea şi el o componentă destul de consistentă de acest gen. De altfel, dacă privim atent în ultimii ani, industria modernă de vacanţe din întreaga lume, a reluat multe dintre componente turismului de masă, cu un mare succes. Apariţia curselor charter, extrem de accesibile, a regenerat dorinţa turistului individual de a se regrupa. În materie de gastronomie, până la urmă sistemul all-inclusive reprezintă o extensie, ce-i drept mult mai elevată şi mai variată, a preparării mâncării pentru structurile turistice de masă.
\n\nAşa-i frumos în viaţă, să dăruieşti o parte din ce ai primit
\n- Care este cel mai important proiect pe care nu l-aţi materializat ?
\n- Un Institut, o Academie de gastronomie. Prin aceasta România ar creşte în rang. Tânăra generaţie ar avea o motivaţie în plus de a accede spre o carieră. Aş dori să ne copieze, apoi să ne depăşească. Aici nu e vorba numai de muncă ci şi de timp, răbdarea şi bani. Să prospere apoi şi, la rândul lor să facă ceea ce au făcut înaintaşii pentru ei. Pentru că aşa-i frumos în viaţă, să dăruieşti o parte din ce ai primit de-a lungul vieţii. O academie de gastronomie nu este o utopie. Pentru a o constitui nu sunt suficiente numai eforturile ANBCT şi Euro-Toques. E nevoie în principal de o consolidare naţională, de bunăvoinţa şi înţelegerea profundă a fenomenului din partea guvernanţilor. Noi ne vedem de treabă pentru că nu-ţi poţi păstra respectabilitatea în lume dacă nu participi la competiţiile internaţionale. Câştigi sau nu, trebuie să fi acolo. Aşa au făcut-o bucătarii, patiserii şi cofetarii români la Viena, Salzburg, Moscova, Kremlin, Glasgow, Milano, Basel, Istanbul, Tokio, Kyoto, Auckland, Erfurt, Lucerna, Luxemburg, Torino, Helsinki, şi după cum vă spuneam, la început, la Lyon.

Ea oferă turiştilor debarcaţi aici, în majoritatea lor prin programe opţionale de croazieră, o atracţie mai puţin cunoscută dar plină de senzaţii tari....\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Cayman-209.jpg\" "\\"OLYMPUS")
Locul e frumos şi degajă o atmosferă aparte. Chiar ţi se face dor să le scrii celor de acasă cât de frumoasă este natura urbană dar şi cea pură din faţa ochilor tăi. Vrei să trimiţi o scrisoare. Du-te în... Iad. O vedere. Du-te tot în... Iad. Vrei să cumperi o suvenire... ia aceeaşi cale. Pentru că trebuie să ştiţi că Oficiul poştal al Iadului se află în golful vestic al insulei Grand Cayman. Legenda s-a născut prin anii 1930 când un înalt funcţionar britanic a venit aici cu treburi financiare şi navale. Într-o zi a plecat la vânătoare şi s-a trezit în faţa unui peisaj terifiant. La început a văzut numai negru în faţa ochilor motiv pentru care a ratat pasărea pe care o urmărea. Atunci a exclamat plin de necaz – O, Hell !\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Cayman-sigla.jpg\" "\\"Cayman")
\r\nDin acel moment a apărut atracţia turistică Hell. Adică Iadul, locul unde dracul a înţărcat bălaia iar englezul a ratat gaia. Zona este plină de roci negre, formaţiuni de calcar şi dolomit, care datorită microorganismelor marine denumite phytocarst au luat culoare închisă ca smoala. Toate amintesc mai degrabă de tufuri vulcanice sau de pietre pe care s-a prelins de-a lungul secolelor lava. Fireşte, se recomandă, pentru a înţelege „şarmul” locului, o plimbare prin iad. Zona respectivă este amenajată cu punţi de lemn suspendate şi poduri. Dar dacă asta ar fi tot, v-aţi plictisi repede. Şi, credeţi-ne, nu se poate într-o insulă care miroase peste tot a bani... Ca urmare orice plimbare se termină în Mall-ul Iadului. Magazinul e denumit pompos Delvil’s Hangout Gift Shop Hell. În realitate este o coşmelie prăpădită spre care dacă sufli stă să se dărâme. Hai să-i zicem îngăduitori, o şandrama romantică din scândură. Dar după ce intri ai surpriza să găseşti toate suvenirurile comerciale ale iadului terestru. De la sticle de apă şi de Coke, băuturi locale şi internaţionale, ţigări de foi, până la tricouri cu logourile aferente, ghiduri, colecţii de monede, coliere de scoici, căni, insigne şi plicuri, timbre şi cărţi poştale. La cea mai mare căutare sunt cele din urmă. Le scrii repede, lipeşti timbrul, plăteşti în dolari caymanezi. Merg şi cei americani dar schimbaţi la cursul... iadului. Dacă tot am ajuns aici, nu puteam să ratăm ocazia să ne fotografiem pe post de diavoli cu coarne roşii, sau să ne punem capul la mezat într-o ramă în care se perpeleşte cu spor, în flăcările iadului, un drac roşu, foarte fericit că turiştii îşi cheltuiesc banii pe aici. Totul este o afacere, care îţi subţiază banii din buzunar. Se cheltuiesc zeci de mii pe zi, dar produc multe amintiri şi bucurii.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Cayman05.jpg\" "\\"OLYMPUS")
\r\nApoi te duci la cutia poştală, din tablă ruginită, căci aici se află şi Oficiul Poştal al Iadului. Nu înainte însă de a aplica ştampila oficială rotundă Hell – Grand Cayman, însoţită de una dreptunghiulară, care imprimă salutări din...iad. Când arunci scrisoarea în cutie, zâmbeşti îngăduitor crezând că e doar o glumă. Că vederea nu va ajunge niciodată la adresant. Surpriză ! După zece zile, când ne-am reîntors în România, cunoştinţele noastre primiseră deja ilustratele sosite din Iadul Caymanez. Treabă englezească până la urmă. Probabil poşta Iadului foloseşte serviciile unui curieratul rapid internaţional. După această tură de aventură luăm un taxi local. Maşină sau trăsură? O preferăm pe a două şi ne întoarcem la nava noastră de croazieră, răsuflând uşuraţi. Avem timp, ca de fiecare dată să evaluăm câte idei simple, devin atracţii turistice, şi câţi bani se pot face din acestea. Am scăpat cu bine şi de data aceasta. Dovada e acest fotoreportaj. Puteţi să ajungeţi în Insula Grand Cayman, apelând la compania World Travel, care promovează în ţara noastră programele companiilor de croaziere Royal Caribbean Internaţional, Celebrity Cruises ori Azamara.

Dubai - primul hotel subacvatic din lume\r\nDaily Mail a anunţat că în Dubai-ul va şoca din nou printr-un proiect inovativ. E vorba de construirea primului hotel subacvatic. El va fi pus în operă de către Deep Ocean Technology (DOT) împreuna cu BIG InvestConsult AG. Complexul va avea 1.000 de metri pătraţi, 21 de camere şi va fi amplasat la 10 metri sub nivelul Golfului Persic. De asemenea, construcţia va deţine un Centru de scufundări, un SPA, o grădină, pistă de aterizare pentru elicoptere, restaurante şi alte facilităţi. Structura se va afla în proportie de 70% sub apă. Ea va fi realizată din mai multe module legate prin intermediul unor discuri mobile ce vor asigura, printre altele, absorbţia energiei generate de apele golfului. Pentru a amplifica senzaţiile, constructorii au prevăzut în jurul hotelului subacvatic un spaţiu în care vor grupa o faună marină cât mai diversă.

Suedezii de la Ikea au anunţat că intenţionează să îşi extindă afacerile în domeniul hotelier. În următorii ani ei vor dezvolta un lanţ de circa o sută de hoteluri cu tarife accesibile în diverse state europene. Harald Muller, manager al Inter Ikea, subsidiara pentru proiecte imobiliare a retailerului de mobilă, a declarat că în curând va fi anunţată locaţia primului hotel cu tarif redus în Germania şi, totodată, a precizat că se află în negocieri cu operatorii hotelieri pentru a implementa rapid acest concept. Primul hotel ar urma să intre în piaţă în 2013. Numele lanţului hotelier nu va avea legatură cu cel al Ikea, a mai precizat Muller.

\r\nVă gândiţi la un început de an cu stil, istorie dar şi prospeţime? Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts şi-a deschis deja primul hotel în Franţa, Parisul fiind cea mai iubită destinaţie a turiştilor chinezi.

\r\nÎn New York camerele de hotel de dimensiuni mici au ajuns la mare căutare! Hotelurile au o acoperire de peste 90%! Un paradox aţi spune, însă ideea unui microhotel, pare a merita toţi banii.

\r\nSe pare că ideea microhotelurilor, de inspiraţie japoneză, s-a materializat în Europa şi SUA începând cu anul 2007. Atunci s-a deschis la New York, în inima Manhattan-ului, Pod Hotel. Are 345 de camere, de 8 până la 12 mp, iar preţul unei nopţi de cazare variază între 89 şi 169 de dolari.

Grand Cayman, ştiţi cu singuranţă, e o insulă vestită prin cele circa 600 de bănci care activează în regim de paradis fiscal. Ea oferă turiştilor debarcaţi aici, în majoritatea lor prin programe opţionale de croazieră, o atracţie mai puţin cunoscută dar plină de senzaţii tari....\r\n
Locul e frumos şi degajă o atmosferă aparte. Chiar ţi se face dor să le scrii celor de acasă cât de frumoasă este natura urbană dar şi cea pură din faţa ochilor tăi. Vrei să trimiţi o scrisoare. Du-te în... Iad. O vedere. Du-te tot în... Iad. Vrei să cumperi o suvenire... ia aceeaşi cale. Pentru că trebuie să ştiţi că Oficiul poştal al Iadului se află în golful vestic al insulei Grand Cayman. Legenda s-a născut prin anii 1930 când un înalt funcţionar britanic a venit aici cu treburi financiare şi navale. Într-o zi a plecat la vânătoare şi s-a trezit în faţa unui peisaj terifiant. La început a văzut numai negru în faţa ochilor motiv pentru care a ratat pasărea pe care o urmărea. Atunci a exclamat plin de necaz – O, Hell !\r\n\r\nDin acel moment a apărut atracţia turistică Hell. Adică Iadul, locul unde dracul a înţărcat bălaia iar englezul a ratat gaia. Zona este plină de roci negre, formaţiuni de calcar şi dolomit, care datorită microorganismelor marine denumite phytocarst au luat culoare închisă ca smoala. Toate amintesc mai degrabă de tufuri vulcanice sau de pietre pe care s-a prelins de-a lungul secolelor lava. Fireşte, se recomandă, pentru a înţelege „şarmul” locului, o plimbare prin iad. Zona respectivă este amenajată cu punţi de lemn suspendate şi poduri. Dar dacă asta ar fi tot, v-aţi plictisi repede. Şi, credeţi-ne, nu se poate într-o insulă care miroase peste tot a bani... Ca urmare orice plimbare se termină în Mall-ul Iadului. Magazinul e denumit pompos Delvil’s Hangout Gift Shop Hell. În realitate este o coşmelie prăpădită spre care dacă sufli stă să se dărâme. Hai să-i zicem îngăduitori, o şandrama romantică din scândură. Dar după ce intri ai surpriza să găseşti toate suvenirurile comerciale ale iadului terestru. De la sticle de apă şi de Coke, băuturi locale şi internaţionale, ţigări de foi, până la tricouri cu logourile aferente, ghiduri, colecţii de monede, coliere de scoici, căni, insigne şi plicuri, timbre şi cărţi poştale. La cea mai mare căutare sunt cele din urmă. Le scrii repede, lipeşti timbrul, plăteşti în dolari caymanezi. Merg şi cei americani dar schimbaţi la cursul... iadului. Dacă tot am ajuns aici, nu puteam să ratăm ocazia să ne fotografiem pe post de diavoli cu coarne roşii, sau să ne punem capul la mezat într-o ramă în care se perpeleşte cu spor, în flăcările iadului, un drac roşu, foarte fericit că turiştii îşi cheltuiesc banii pe aici. Totul este o afacere, care îţi subţiază banii din buzunar. Se cheltuiesc zeci de mii pe zi, dar produc multe amintiri şi bucurii.\r\n\r\nApoi te duci la cutia poştală, din tablă ruginită, căci aici se află şi Oficiul Poştal al Iadului. Nu înainte însă de a aplica ştampila oficială rotundă Hell – Grand Cayman, însoţită de una dreptunghiulară, care imprimă salutări din...iad. Când arunci scrisoarea în cutie, zâmbeşti îngăduitor crezând că e doar o glumă. Că vederea nu va ajunge niciodată la adresant. Surpriză ! După zece zile, când ne-am reîntors în România, cunoştinţele noastre primiseră deja ilustratele sosite din Iadul Caymanez. Treabă englezească până la urmă. Probabil poşta Iadului foloseşte serviciile unui curieratul rapid internaţional. După această tură de aventură luăm un taxi local. Maşină sau trăsură? O preferăm pe a două şi ne întoarcem la nava noastră de croazieră, răsuflând uşuraţi. Avem timp, ca de fiecare dată să evaluăm câte idei simple, devin atracţii turistice, şi câţi bani se pot face din acestea. Am scăpat cu bine şi de data aceasta. Dovada e acest fotoreportaj.

Dubai - primul hotel subacvatic din lume\r\nDaily Mail a anunţat că în Dubai-ul va şoca din nou printr-un proiect inovativ. E vorba de construirea primului hotel subacvatic. El va fi pus în operă de către Deep Ocean Technology (DOT) împreuna cu BIG InvestConsult AG. Complexul va avea 1.000 de metri pătraţi, 21 de camere şi va fi amplasat la 10 metri sub nivelul Golfului Persic. De asemenea, construcţia va deţine un Centru de scufundări, un SPA, o grădină, pistă de aterizare pentru elicoptere, restaurante şi alte facilităţi. Structura se va afla în proportie de 70% sub apă. Ea va fi realizată din mai multe module legate prin intermediul unor discuri mobile ce vor asigura, printre altele, absorbţia energiei generate de apele golfului. Pentru a amplifica senzaţiile, constructorii au prevăzut în jurul hotelului subacvatic un spaţiu în care vor grupa o faună marină cât mai diversă.

ADA-KALEH sau Orientul scufundat\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/carte-ada-kaleh.jpg\" "\\"carte")
\r\n
Întotdeauna pentru un autor reconstituirea trecutului pe baza unor documente textuale ori fotografice reprezintă o aventură culturală în care se regăsesc îmbinate nostalgii, sentimente, regrete. Aşa se întâmplă şi cu cartea semnată de Marian Ţuţui dedicată celei mai mediatizate insule pe care a deţinut-o România. “Ada-Kaleh sau Orientul scufundat”, tipărită la editura NOI Media Print a beneficiat de sprijinul financiar al Administraţiei Fondului Cultural Naţional. Cele 240 de pagini par a fi un labirint fotografic construit în ani de călătorii în natură dar şi prin arhivele filmice ori fotografice. “Am fost nevoit să verific sursele şi am încercat să redau istoria reală a insulei, prea tumultoasă pentru a fi amestecată cu altceva. Nu am reprodus prea multe legende, căci istoria glorioasă a insulei merita să fie cunoscută aşa cum a fost, fără falsificări” – precizează Marian Ţuţui. “Trebuie spus că destinul insulei Ada-Kaleh, este exemplar pentru sacrificiile făcute în numele progresului. În 1969, insula a dispărut sub apele lacului de acumulare al Hidrocentralei Porţile de Fier I” – mai subliniază acesta. Există cărţi care se povestesc şi cărţi care se citesc. Veţi rămâne fascinaţi să aflaţi că Hans Christian Andersen a realizat mai multe desene tematice despre acest loc, că tot aici Maria Rosetti i-a eliberat pe conducătorii Revoluţiei de la 1848, iar Egon Erwin Kisch considera insula Ada-Kaleh drept… un Gibraltar al Dunării.
\r\nCRISTIAN CĂRĂMIDĂ – Brandul Ospitalităţii\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/carte-Caramida-cristian.jpg\" "\\"carte")
\r\n
Cele două volume „Brandul Ospitalităţii” reprezintă o iniţiativă singulară pe segmentul cercetării industriei turistice româneşti. Cu atât mai mult iniţiativa autorului cunoscut prin alte lucrări valoroase dedicate „planetei brandingului”, ni se prezintă mai valoroasă. Arheologia numelor comerciale arată că în secolul trecut ţara noastră deţinea branduri turistice cu greutate spre deosebire de timpurile prezente destul de sărace în branduri consistente. Cristian Cărămidă „sapă” scriitoriceşte în tranşeele turistice de unde scoate la lumină branduri mai vechi – Hanul lui Manuc, Hotel Negresco de la Nisa, Hotel Împăratul Romanilor din Sibiu, Caru cu Bere, „Bufetul” de la Şosea, creaţie a arhitectului Ion Mincu, ONT Carpaţi, staţiunea Mamaia, ori mai noi - Romexpo, cel mai solid şi durabil brand din industria de evenimente etc. Ambele volume conţin capitole de teorie unde aflăm că „Orice brand poate oferi sub marca sa produse unice, ce nu pot fi înlocuite şi care oferă sentimentul de mulţumire odată cu utilizarea lor”, ori „Un produs poate deveni brand, un brand nu poate deveni niciodată un produs” etc. Cât despre ospitalitate e bine să ştiţi că a existat un Ordin al Cavalerilor Ospitalieri. Fondat în timpul primei cruciade (1095-1098) acesta este cel mai vechi Ordin religios. Două cărţi de citit. Ele au văzut lumina tiparului la Editura Brandmark.
\r\nLEGENDE din ŢARA BÂRSEI\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/carte-tara-barsei.jpg\" "\\"carte")
\r\n
Este vorba de un album. Luxos. Bine legat. Editat în română şi engleză. Desigur a fost conceput ca un vehicul de promovare. El pune în valoare legende dar şi povestiri, istorii mai vechi şi mai noi ce privesc Braşovul şi Ţara Bârsei, tratată ca un produs turistic bogat şi divers. Autorii sunt Nicolae Pepene şi Bogdan Florin Popovici iar iniţiativa culturală „Legendele Ţării Bârsei” a fost susţinută financiar înţelegem de către Agenţia Metropolitană pentru Dezvoltare Durabilă Braşov. „Viaţa noastră de ieri şi de azi, face istoria de mâine. Şi după decenii de viaţă, când ne povestim trecutul, mai înfrumuseţăm ici şi colo, mai îndreptăm lucrurile, voit sau mai ales nevoit. Din tot ce a fost – care dacă ar fi riguros constituit ar fi istorie – rămâne în mintea oamenilor legenda... – arată cei doi. Şi câte legende frumoase puteţi descoperi în acest album generos ilustrat. Vă veţi întâlni cu Toiagul Regelui Uriaşilor, Muntele de Caş, Piatra Cocoşului, Cetatea Roşie, Valea Trandafirilor, Stânca Mâna Dracului, Scaunul Fecioarelor, Curajul bărbătesc şi Viclenia feminină etc. Dacă am avea un regizor care să topească istoria şi fantasticul lor într-un serial, Harry Poter ar rămâne cu aventurile sale un... mic copil. Cum nu-l avem, ne mulţumim şi cu acest produs de excepţie.

\r\nPoate nu aţi fost demult la Băile Felix. Poate credeţi că este o staţiune care a rămas îngheţată în peisaj cu hoteluri vechi, buşite, uzate moral. Noi am fost de mai multe ori, ca editori dar şi ca turişti. Şi o să vă arătăm că imaginea aceasta nu mai există. E musai să vă convingem şi pe voi, cititorii noştri, că aici se naşte o lume nouă care merită cunoscută.

Câte ceva despre un motor... balnear
\r\nCu ce vrem să vă convingem? Mai întâi cu prezentul vizibil, palpabil, pus în operă de investiţiile făcute de SIF Transilvania, acţionarul majoritar al societăţii Turism Felix SA. Efectul banilor alocaţi în ultimul deceniu se vede convertit în expresii turistice moderne şi atractive. Am mai scris despre hotelurile Termal şi Nufărul (3 stele), dar şi despre noua bijuterie Spa & conference, ne referim la Internaţional (4 stele), am spune cel mai modern complex cu 11 etaje, un motor ce turează pe piaţa balneară cu 340 de locuri. Ele sunt grupate 80 de camere single, 107 duble, 20 de apartamente, 3 pentru persoane cu dizabilităţi, restaurante, Centru de tratament etc. Patru săli de conferinţe sunt dedicate evenimentelor ce pot satisface, prin facilităţile lor, între 50 şi 200 de participanţi. Complexul Internaţional, care a valorificat o structură mai veche, promovează pe piaţă un nou concept adaptat cerinţelor moderne – două dintre ele fiind business şi sănătate. A revenit pe piaţă în noua sa formulă în 2007 şi, dacă nu aţi aflat încă, este singurul hotel din România care deţine sigla EurospaMed, ce atestă calitatea infrastructurii generale a terapiilor, igienei şi securităţii turiştilor. Nu e de ici de colo. Dacă mai amintim de cele 3 piscine exterioare şi cele 2 interioare, cu ape termale, veţi înţelege că puteţi veni la tratament dar şi pentru păstrarea sănătăţii. Centrul Welness include bazine de hidromasaj, hidroterapie, zone pentru masaj în diferite formule, duşuri speciale cu cromo şi aromo-terapie, Jacuzii, saună şi solar, salon de cosmetică şi de înfrumuseţare etc. Condiţiile? Merită să le testaţi. După aceea mai vorbim.

Teoria e frumoasă, dar viaţa...
\r\nPână atunci însă l-am căutat pe un mai vechi prieten al revistei noastre Florian Serac, directorul Turism Felix, cel care ştie cum s-au mişcat banii şi în ce s-au transformat în ultimii ani. Scurt şi la obiect, pentru ca să ajungem la noutăţile de calibru, domnia sa ne spune că la ora aceasta compania pe care o manageriază deţine 7 hoteluri plus 1 aflat în renovare. 15-20% dintre turişti sunt străini. După ce în hotelul Internaţional au fost investiţi circa 12 milioane de euro, a venit rândul Poieniţei, care şi-a schimbat faţa şi oferta după ce a cunoscut o întinerire de 1 milion de euro. Un alt hotel - Lotus vechi, a fost pus la pământ pe locul său construindu-se deja noul complex Lotus ce va intra pe piaţă la un standard de 4 stele. Investiţia se ridică aici la 4,5 milioane de euro El face obiectul unei noi companii balneare, unde pachetul majoritar – circa 76% din acţiuni - îl deţine Turism Felix SA. Directorul Serac ne mai aminteşte de complexul Termal care va beneficia de o nouă bază de tratament, modernă, cu încă două bazine cu apă termală. În acest proces se află în derulare 1,5 milioane de euro. Serac ne spune că există şi o filosofie a rezistenţei aici la Băile Felix. Ea sună cam aşa: „Teoria e frumoasă dar viaţa ne-a învăţat şi ne-a dat curaj prin investiţiile concrete. Vârful nostru de lance este şi va rămâne turismul balnear. Secretele rezistenţei societăţii noastre ca proprietate unită sunt – moştenirea de la vechiul sistem a unor structuri concentrate, resursele celor 5 SIF-uri de pe piaţa românească şi susţinerea celor peste 6.500 de acţionari. SIF Transilvania deţine peste 60% din acţiunile societăţii”.

Cel mai tare din Estul Europei
\r\nDar noutatea absolută aşteptată de turişti va fi, cu siguranţă Complexul Felixarium. Intrarea lui în circuitul turistic era asteptată pentru 2011. Datorită dificultăţilor generate de criza financiară investitorii preconizează acum că lucrările vor fi finalizate la jumătatea anului 2014. Ce va fi Felixarium? Mai întâi o investiţie de circa 12 milioane de euro. Cel mai modern proiect de agrement din staţiunile balneare dar şi cel mai modern centru de agrement aquatic din Estul Europei. Potrivit declaraţiilor administratorilor Felixarium “construcţia este amplasată pe locul fostului hotel Felix şi face corp comun cu Hotel Lotus. După finalizare Băile Felix va dispune de 2 baze de tratament de 4 stele, dotate cu cea mai modernă aparatură şi dotări în materie de tratament balneo, fizio, electroterapie. Complexul va deţine un mini aquapark cu bazine şi facilităţi de distracţie acoperite şi în aer liber, cu apă termală, pentru a asigura condiţii de relaxare şi distracţie pentru toate anotimpurile. Pe lângă distracţia aquatică, oaspeţii, indiferent de vârstă, vor avea la dispoziţie restaurante a la carte, dar şi restaurante fast-food. Toboganele vor aduce un plus de culoare şi varietate serviciilor Felixarium. Acestea vor avea lungimi şi grade de dificultate diferite oferind posibilitatea copiilor şi nu numai clipe de neuitat.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Felixarium-ext_fara-acoperis.jpg\" "\\"Felixarium")
Fachirii sănătăţii noastre
\r\nŞi să nu-i uit. Dacă v-am convins să alegeţi Băile Felix să ştiţi că în umbra serviciilor care vă sunt oferite se află oameni cu experienţă şi devotament. Doctorul Ion Mircea Tarău, directorul medical al societăţii e un tip de poveste, plin de haz şi aplicaţie pentru stilul promovat de turismul balnear. Dacă nu ştiaţi ambii există. Şi Tarău şi stilul balnear. Şi sunt la mare căutare. Tarău ne-a vorbit despre străinii care vin aici, fiecare cu durerile ori dorinţele sale. Unii au sosit tocmai din Qatar, Kuweit, Emiratele Arabe Unite, dar şi din Germania ori Israel, ultimele două ţări având cândva un flux extraordinar spre Băile Felix.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/felixarium-int_1.jpg\" "\\"felixarium")
\r\nLa rândul ei Aura Brânzaş, omul de travel, îţi poate vorbi despre staţiune şi în somn. Ea coordonează programele turistice, pentru că trebuie să ştiţi că în parteneriat cu mai multe firme aici sunt comercializate produse reunite sub umbrela sloganului „Terapie prin excursii!”. În funcţie de preferinţe, de la Băile Felix puteţi călătorii spre peşteri (una este cea a Urşilor), saline (Turda e cea mai tare), Oradea, dar puteţi ajunge la Budapesta, şi e posibil chiar şi la Viena ori Veneţia.

Merită să le testaţi. După aceea mai vorbim.

Teoria e frumoasă, dar viaţa...
\nPână atunci însă l-am căutat pe un mai vechi prieten al revistei noastre Florian Serac, directorul Turism Felix, cel care ştie cum s-au mişcat banii şi în ce s-au transformat în ultimii ani. Scurt şi la obiect, pentru ca să ajungem la noutăţile de calibru, domnia sa ne spune că la ora aceasta compania pe care o manageriază deţine 7 hoteluri plus 1 aflat în renovare. 15-20% dintre turişti sunt străini. După ce în hotelul Internaţional au fost investiţi circa 12 milioane de euro, a venit rândul Poieniţei, care şi-a schimbat faţa şi oferta după ce a cunoscut o întinerire de 1 milion de euro. Un alt hotel - Lotus vechi, a fost pus la pământ pe locul său construindu-se deja noul complex Lotus ce va intra pe piaţă la un standard de 4 stele. Investiţia se ridică aici la 4,5 milioane de euro El face obiectul unei noi companii balneare, unde pachetul majoritar – circa 76% din acţiuni - îl deţine Turism Felix SA. Directorul Serac ne mai aminteşte de complexul Termal care va beneficia de o nouă bază de tratament, modernă, cu încă două bazine cu apă termală. În acest proces se află în derulare 1,5 milioane de euro. Serac ne spune că există şi o filosofie a rezistenţei aici la Băile Felix. Ea sună cam aşa: „Teoria e frumoasă dar viaţa ne-a învăţat şi ne-a dat curaj prin investiţiile concrete. Vârful nostru de lance este şi va rămâne turismul balnear. Secretele rezistenţei societăţii noastre ca proprietate unită sunt – moştenirea de la vechiul sistem a unor structuri concentrate, resursele celor 5 SIF-uri de pe piaţa românească şi susţinerea celor peste 6.500 de acţionari. SIF Transilvania deţine peste 60% din acţiunile societăţii”.
\n
Cel mai tare din Estul Europei
\nDar noutatea absolută aşteptată de turişti va fi, cu siguranţă Complexul Felixarium. Intrarea lui în circuitul turistic era asteptată pentru 2011. Datorită dificultăţilor generate de criza financiară investitorii preconizează acum că lucrările vor fi finalizate la jumătatea anului 2014. Ce va fi Felixarium? Mai întâi o investiţie de circa 12 milioane de euro. Cel mai modern proiect de agrement din staţiunile balneare dar şi cel mai modern centru de agrement aquatic din Estul Europei. Potrivit declaraţiilor administratorilor Felixarium “construcţia este amplasată pe locul fostului hotel Felix şi face corp comun cu Hotel Lotus. După finalizare Băile Felix va dispune de 2 baze de tratament de 4 stele, dotate cu cea mai modernă aparatură şi dotări în materie de tratament balneo, fizio, electroterapie. Complexul va deţine un mini aquapark cu bazine şi facilităţi de distracţie acoperite şi în aer liber, cu apă termală, pentru a asigura condiţii de relaxare şi distracţie pentru toate anotimpurile. Pe lângă distracţia aquatică, oaspeţii, indiferent de vârstă, vor avea la dispoziţie restaurante a la carte, dar şi restaurante fast-food. Toboganele vor aduce un plus de culoare şi varietate serviciilor Felixarium. Acestea vor avea lungimi şi grade de dificultate diferite oferind posibilitatea copiilor şi nu numai clipe de neuitat.\n
Fachirii sănătăţii noastre
\nŞi să nu-i uit. Dacă v-am convins să alegeţi Băile Felix să ştiţi că în umbra serviciilor care vă sunt oferite se află oameni cu experienţă şi devotament. Doctorul Ion Mircea Tarău, directorul medical al societăţii e un tip de poveste, plin de haz şi aplicaţie pentru stilul promovat de turismul balnear. Dacă nu ştiaţi ambii există. Şi Tarău şi stilul balnear. Şi sunt la mare căutare. Tarău ne-a vorbit despre străinii care vin aici, fiecare cu durerile ori dorinţele sale. Unii au sosit tocmai din Qatar, Kuweit, Emiratele Arabe Unite, dar şi din Germania ori Israel, ultimele două ţări având cândva un flux extraordinar spre Băile Felix.\n\nLa rândul ei Aura Brânzaş, omul de travel, îţi poate vorbi despre staţiune şi în somn. Ea coordonează programele turistice, pentru că trebuie să ştiţi că în parteneriat cu mai multe firme aici sunt comercializate produse reunite sub umbrela sloganului „Terapie prin excursii!”. În funcţie de preferinţe, de la Băile Felix puteţi călătorii spre peşteri (una este cea a Urşilor), saline (Turda e cea mai tare), Oradea, dar puteţi ajunge la Budapesta, şi e posibil chiar şi la Viena ori Veneţia. Desigur, veţi avea parte şi de alte surprize. Plăcute, fireşte.\n

Atunci iată încă un aspect demn de semnalat în industria ospitalităţii din România. De mulţi ani vin în ţara noastră grupuri şi turişti individuali străini. Sigur, ne dorim să fie cât mai numeroşi. Problema pe care am observat-o şi mi-a fost deseori semnalată, nu e minoră. Aceştia vin însoţiţi de persoane, unele dintre ele atestate ca ghid internaţional, altele nu, dar care nu au licenţă pentru a profesa ca ghid intern în România. Şi ce-i cu asta? Păi este! În toate ţările în care se face turism la greu, ghidajul la faţa locului este asigurat de către un ghid naţional atestat, însoţit cel mult de ghidul oaspete. Ghidul român nu are dreptul să ofere informaţii turistice la obiective străine. Rolul principal revine ghidului gazdă plătit pentru această prestaţie. Am observat la faţa locului - în Italia, Spania, Germania, Franţa, am constat asta şi în Egipt, că dacă un ghid român încercă să fenteze situaţia, este pasibil de control şi riscă să fie amendat de Poliţia turistică din ţara respectivă. Mai mult, ghizii din acele ţări reclamă imediat situaţia, pentru că li se ia... pâinea de la gură. Dar nu este vorba numai de atât. Am constatat deseori că unii dintre aşa zişii însoţitori-ghizi străini habar n-au ce să le spună clienţilor într-un tur de oraş sau un circuit naţional în România. Din necunoaştere ori superficialitate, ei se lansează în tot felul de afirmaţii nerealiste. Astfel, pe lângă încălcarea regulilor valabile la ei în ţară, mai aduc şi deservicii de imagine ţării noastre. Iar banii pentru prestaţii nu mai intră în buzunarul agenţiilor şi ghizilor autohtoni, drept urmare nici în bugetul României.\r\n\r\nCe-i de făcut ? O legislaţie aproximativă în acest sens avem. Ea trebuie modernizată şi armonizată cu cea existentă în Uniunea Europeană. Cel puţin. Pentru că dacă avem obligaţii şi responsabilităţi atunci trebuie să avem drepturi echivalente şi în acest domeniu. Pentru a combate aceste aspecte ar trebui să se implice Direcţia de Autorizare şi Control a Ministerului de profil ori al noii Autorităţi Naţionale pentru Turism. Instituţiile ar trebui să deţină o bază actualizată cu ghizii români activi, atestaţi de specialiştii lor.

Întotdeauna pentru un autor reconstituirea trecutului pe baza unor documente textuale ori fotografice reprezintă o aventură culturală în care se regăsesc îmbinate nostalgii, sentimente, regrete. Aşa se întâmplă şi cu cartea semnată de Marian Ţuţui dedicată celei mai mediatizate insule pe care a deţinut-o România. “Ada-Kaleh sau Orientul scufundat”, tipărită la editura NOI Media Print a beneficiat de sprijinul financiar al Administraţiei Fondului Cultural Naţional. Cele 240 de pagini par a fi un labirint fotografic construit în ani de călătorii în natură dar şi prin arhivele filmice ori fotografice. “Am fost nevoit să verific sursele şi am încercat să redau istoria reală a insulei, prea tumultoasă pentru a fi amestecată cu altceva. Nu am reprodus prea multe legende, căci istoria glorioasă a insulei merita să fie cunoscută aşa cum a fost, fără falsificări” – precizează Marian Ţuţui. “Trebuie spus că destinul insulei Ada-Kaleh, este exemplar pentru sacrificiile făcute în numele progresului. În 1969, insula a dispărut sub apele lacului de acumulare al Hidrocentralei Porţile de Fier I” – mai subliniază acesta. Există cărţi care se povestesc şi cărţi care se citesc. Veţi rămâne fascinaţi să aflaţi că Hans Christian Andersen a realizat mai multe desene tematice despre acest loc, că tot aici Maria Rosetti i-a eliberat pe conducătorii Revoluţiei de la 1848, iar Egon Erwin Kisch considera insula Ada-Kaleh drept… un Gibraltar al Dunării.
\nCRISTIAN CĂRĂMIDĂ – Brandul Ospitalităţii\n\n
Cele două volume „Brandul Ospitalităţii” reprezintă o iniţiativă singulară pe segmentul cercetării industriei turistice româneşti. Cu atât mai mult iniţiativa autorului cunoscut prin alte lucrări valoroase dedicate „planetei brandingului”, ni se prezintă mai valoroasă. Arheologia numelor comerciale arată că în secolul trecut ţara noastră deţinea branduri turistice cu greutate spre deosebire de timpurile prezente destul de sărace în branduri consistente. Cristian Cărămidă „sapă” scriitoriceşte în tranşeele turistice de unde scoate la lumină branduri mai vechi – Hanul lui Manuc, Hotel Negresco de la Nisa, Hotel Împăratul Romanilor din Sibiu, Caru cu Bere, „Bufetul” de la Şosea, creaţie a arhitectului Ion Mincu, ONT Carpaţi, staţiunea Mamaia, ori mai noi - Romexpo, cel mai solid şi durabil brand din industria de evenimente etc. Ambele volume conţin capitole de teorie unde aflăm că „Orice brand poate oferi sub marca sa produse unice, ce nu pot fi înlocuite şi care oferă sentimentul de mulţumire odată cu utilizarea lor”, ori „Un produs poate deveni brand, un brand nu poate deveni niciodată un produs” etc. Cât despre ospitalitate e bine să ştiţi că a existat un Ordin al Cavalerilor Ospitalieri. Fondat în timpul primei cruciade (1095-1098) acesta este cel mai vechi Ordin religios. Două cărţi de citit. Ele au văzut lumina tiparului la Editura Brandmark.
\nLEGENDE din ŢARA BÂRSEI\n\n
Este vorba de un album. Luxos. Bine legat. Editat în română şi engleză. Desigur a fost conceput ca un vehicul de promovare. El pune în valoare legende dar şi povestiri, istorii mai vechi şi mai noi ce privesc Braşovul şi Ţara Bârsei, tratată ca un produs turistic bogat şi divers. Autorii sunt Nicolae Pepene şi Bogdan Florin Popovici iar iniţiativa culturală „Legendele Ţării Bârsei” a fost susţinută financiar înţelegem de către Agenţia Metropolitană pentru Dezvoltare Durabilă Braşov. „Viaţa noastră de ieri şi de azi, face istoria de mâine. Şi după decenii de viaţă, când ne povestim trecutul, mai înfrumuseţăm ici şi colo, mai îndreptăm lucrurile, voit sau mai ales nevoit. Din tot ce a fost – care dacă ar fi riguros constituit ar fi istorie – rămâne în mintea oamenilor legenda... – arată cei doi. Şi câte legende frumoase puteţi descoperi în acest album generos ilustrat. Vă veţi întâlni cu Toiagul Regelui Uriaşilor, Muntele de Caş, Piatra Cocoşului, Cetatea Roşie, Valea Trandafirilor, Stânca Mâna Dracului, Scaunul Fecioarelor, Curajul bărbătesc şi Viclenia feminină etc. Dacă am avea un regizor care să topească istoria şi fantasticul lor într-un serial, Harry Poter ar rămâne cu aventurile sale un... mic copil. Cum nu-l avem, ne mulţumim şi cu acest produs de excepţie.

\r\n\r\n\r\nMunicipiul Cluj-Napoca a fost desemnat Capitala Europeană a Tineretului în 2015. Documentaţia care a stat la baza acestei decizii susţine că tineretul este o investiţie serioasă pentru dezvoltarea urbană sustenabilă şi responsabilă. Numele programului prezentat este SHARE, un concept puternic, clar, solid, diversificat şi interesant.”SHARE promovează împărţirea spaţiului, a culturii, a puterii, a muncii, a bucuriei, a viziunii şi a valorilor europene comune, prin intermediul subiectelor ca avocatură, mobilitate, dialog structurat şi informaţii pentru tineri. Cu ajutorul unei focalizări pe dimensiunea europeană şi cooperarea cu universităţile, societatea civilă şi partenerii locali, Cluj-Napoca se pregăteşte să ofere consultanţă permanentă în procesele legate de problemele tinerilor\", se arată în comunicatul youthforum.org.\r\nFarkas Andras, reprezentantul unui ONG care a promovat şi alte proiecte de succes cu finanţare europeană a declarat că: “Nu pornim de la zero, există foarte multe programe pentru tineri în Cluj-Napoca. Titlul de Capitală Europeană de Tineret este un instrument pentru promovarea imaginii Clujului în Europa şi oferirea de perspective tinerilor ca să trăiască la municipiu. Vom avea un portofoliu de proiecte cu activităţi de voluntariat, sportive, schimburi de experienţă, concerte, care să se deruleze în 2015.” Titlul de Capitală Europeană a Tineretului a fost acordat pentru prima dată în 2009 oraşului Rotterdam, urmat apoi de Torino, Anvers, Braga, Maribor.

Primarul Antal Arpad s-a documentat şi a constatat că pentru fiecare an este stabilit ce ţări pot candida pentru a deveni Capitală Culturală Europeană, iar în 2021 va fi rândul României şi Greciei. El mai apreciază că proiectul conceput are şanse mari să câştige deoarece, până în prezent, localitatea pe care o conduce este singurul oraş care candidează pentru a promova o regiune culturală şi turistică reprezentată de Ţinutul Secuiesc.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nRecomandări pentru primăvară\r\n\r\nDelta Dunării figurează într-un top al recomandărilor făcute de către editorii National Geographic Traveler pentru călătoriile din această primăvară. Această atracţie naturală din România se află printre cele 9 propuneri turistice pentru locurile unde ai putea să-ţi petreci vacanţele. Celelalte destinaţii se află amplasate în Noua Zeelandă, Olanda, SUA, Portugalia, Argentina şi Africa de Sud.\r\nSituată în sud-estul României, la confluenţa dintre Dunăre şi Marea Neagră, Delta Dunării se află în patrimoniul UNESCO. Ea este descrisă pentru potenţialii săi vizitatori drept locul ideal unde poţi admira, din aprilie şi până în septembrie, milioane de păsări migratoare în habitatul lor natural. Acest spaţiu găzduieste peste 300 de specii de păsări, cum ar fi pelicanii, gâştele cu pieptul roşu sau cormoranii pitici, numeroase alte specii faunistice ori floristice cu caracter de unicat.

Expoziţia „Linie şi Culoare”, marchează împlinirea a 90 de ani de la naşterea artistei care ne-a părăsit în urmă cu mai bine de un deceniu. Evenimentul este organizat în colaborare cu instituţii prestigioase şi cu colecţionari particulari printre care se numără: Federaţia Comunităţilor Evreieşti din România, Muzeul Naţional de Artă al României, , Muzeul de Artă Constanţa, Colecţiile Pavel Şuşară, Rodica Lăzărescu, Silviu Angelescu etc. Expoziţia, ce reuneşte 134 de lucrări, readuce în atenţia publicului o parte din universul Ernestinei Peltz (Tia) care s-a născut în 1923, în Bucureşti, în familia scriitorului Isac Peltz. A participat la numeroase expoziţii internaţionale printre care cea de Grafică de la Berlin (1965), de Artă Românească de la Köln (1968), dar a ilustrat numeroase romane şi cărţi pentru copii. Tia Peltz a fost membră a Academiei de Arte Frumoase de la Roma (1976) şi a Academiei \"San Sal Maggiore\" din Parma, dar s-a numărat şi printre fondatorii Uniunii Artiştilor Plastici din România. Expoziţia - ce poate fi vizitată de marţi până duminică între orele 9.30 şi 17.30 -, beneficiază de un catalog color pe care vizitatorii îl pot achiziţiona de la magazinul muzeului. Traveller Magazin este partener media al evenimentului.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nRUGINOASA A REINTRAT ÎN CIRCUIT\r\n\r\nPalatul lui Alexandru Ioan Cuza, din Ruginoasa a fost redeschis pentru vizitare, dupa 6 ani de restaurare minuţioasă. Pentru reabilitarea lui a fost necesari 2,6 milioane de euro, acoperiţi din finanţare europeană. Reamenajarea interioară a fost făcută pe baza unor documente originale de epocă, conform detaliilor orginale de decoraţii de la stofă până la tapiserie, pentru fiecare cameră în parte - a declarat Vlad Velcu, reprezentantul firmei care a executat lucrările. Pentru a satisface cerinţele vizitatorului modern, Palatul de la Ruginoasa a fost dotat cu echipamente de ultimă generaţie de sonorizare şi proiecţie. Astfel turistul este întâmpinat cu un film în care sunt redate cele mai importante fragmente din discursurile primului domnitor al Principatelor Unite.\r\n\r\nANTREC A LANSAT....\r\n\r\n...a XXI-a ediţie a Programului „Vacanţe la ţară” În perioada 14 aprilie 2013 – 15 iunie 2013 se desfăşoară cea de-a XXI-a ediţie a Programului Special „Vacanţe la ţară”.

Printre ele se numără şi România. Ţara noastră este descrisă ca o bijuterie turistică ascunsă. Ea oferă o atmosferă medievală fascinantă şi staţiuni turistice la malul Mării Negre care nu sunt aglomerate. Poţi vedea frumoasele oraşe de la malul mării care sunt mai puţin costisitoare comparativ cu preţurile practicate în cele din Vestul Europei, se precizează în documentarul publicat.\nCelelalte destinaţii recomandate americanilor pentru călătorii sunt: Thailanda, Cambodgia, India, China, Belize, Ungaria, Peru, Bolivia şi Costa Rica.\n\n \n\nCLUJ NAPOCA - Capitală Europeană a Tineretului în 2015\n\n\n\nMunicipiul Cluj-Napoca a fost desemnat Capitala Europeană a Tineretului în 2015. Documentaţia care a stat la baza acestei decizii susţine că tineretul este o investiţie serioasă pentru dezvoltarea urbană sustenabilă şi responsabilă. Numele programului prezentat este SHARE, un concept puternic, clar, solid, diversificat şi interesant.”SHARE promovează împărţirea spaţiului, a culturii, a puterii, a muncii, a bucuriei, a viziunii şi a valorilor europene comune, prin intermediul subiectelor ca avocatură, mobilitate, dialog structurat şi informaţii pentru tineri. Cu ajutorul unei focalizări pe dimensiunea europeană şi cooperarea cu universităţile, societatea civilă şi partenerii locali, Cluj-Napoca se pregăteşte să ofere consultanţă permanentă în procesele legate de problemele tinerilor\", se arată în comunicatul youthforum.org.\nFarkas Andras, reprezentantul unui ONG care a promovat şi alte proiecte de succes cu finanţare europeană a declarat că: “Nu pornim de la zero, există foarte multe programe pentru tineri în Cluj-Napoca. Titlul de Capitală Europeană de Tineret este un instrument pentru promovarea imaginii Clujului în Europa şi oferirea de perspective tinerilor ca să trăiască la municipiu. Vom avea un portofoliu de proiecte cu activităţi de voluntariat, sportive, schimburi de experienţă, concerte, care să se deruleze în 2015.” Titlul de Capitală Europeană a Tineretului a fost acordat pentru prima dată în 2009 oraşului Rotterdam, urmat apoi de Torino, Anvers, Braga, Maribor. Salonic va deţine acest titlu în 2014.\n\nSFÂNTU GHEORGHE vrea să fie… Capitală Culturală\n\n\n\nConducerea municipiului Sfântu Gheorghe (judeţul Covasna) a anunţat că va depune candidatura pentru a deveni Capitală Culturală Europeană în 2021. Primarul Antal Arpad s-a documentat şi a constatat că pentru fiecare an este stabilit ce ţări pot candida pentru a deveni Capitală Culturală Europeană, iar în 2021 va fi rândul României şi Greciei. El mai apreciază că proiectul conceput are şanse mari să câştige deoarece, până în prezent, localitatea pe care o conduce este singurul oraş care candidează pentru a promova o regiune culturală şi turistică reprezentată de Ţinutul Secuiesc.\n\n \n\nRecomandări pentru primăvară\n\nDelta Dunării figurează într-un top al recomandărilor făcute de către editorii National Geographic Traveler pentru călătoriile din această primăvară. Această atracţie naturală din România se află printre cele 9 propuneri turistice pentru locurile unde ai putea să-ţi petreci vacanţele. Celelalte destinaţii se află amplasate în Noua Zeelandă, Olanda, SUA, Portugalia, Argentina şi Africa de Sud.\nSituată în sud-estul României, la confluenţa dintre Dunăre şi Marea Neagră, Delta Dunării se află în patrimoniul UNESCO. Ea este descrisă pentru potenţialii săi vizitatori drept locul ideal unde poţi admira, din aprilie şi până în septembrie, milioane de păsări migratoare în habitatul lor natural. Acest spaţiu găzduieste peste 300 de specii de păsări, cum ar fi pelicanii, gâştele cu pieptul roşu sau cormoranii pitici, numeroase alte specii faunistice ori floristice cu caracter de unicat. Ultimul premiu important primit de Rezervaţia Biosferei Delta Dunării – “Golden Apple” -, a fost decernat de către Federaţia Internaţională a Jurnaliştilor şi Editorilor de Turism (FIJET), în anul 2009, şi se află expus la Muzeul Ecoturistic din oraşul Tulcea, capitala judeţului Tulcea.\n\n \n\nRemember TIA PELTZ\n\n\n\nPînă pe 2 iunie aveţi ocazia să vă delectaţi cu o parte din lucrările create de Tia Peltz, vizitând retrospectiva iniţiată de Muzeul Naţional Cotroceni. Expoziţia „Linie şi Culoare”, marchează împlinirea a 90 de ani de la naşterea artistei care ne-a părăsit în urmă cu mai bine de un deceniu. Evenimentul este organizat în colaborare cu instituţii prestigioase şi cu colecţionari particulari printre care se numără: Federaţia Comunităţilor Evreieşti din România, Muzeul Naţional de Artă al României, , Muzeul de Artă Constanţa, Colecţiile Pavel Şuşară, Rodica Lăzărescu, Silviu Angelescu etc. Expoziţia, ce reuneşte 134 de lucrări, readuce în atenţia publicului o parte din universul Ernestinei Peltz (Tia) care s-a născut în 1923, în Bucureşti, în familia scriitorului Isac Peltz. A participat la numeroase expoziţii internaţionale printre care cea de Grafică de la Berlin (1965), de Artă Românească de la Köln (1968), dar a ilustrat numeroase romane şi cărţi pentru copii. Tia Peltz a fost membră a Academiei de Arte Frumoase de la Roma (1976) şi a Academiei \"San Sal Maggiore\" din Parma, dar s-a numărat şi printre fondatorii Uniunii Artiştilor Plastici din România. Expoziţia - ce poate fi vizitată de marţi până duminică între orele 9.30 şi 17.30 -, beneficiază de un catalog color pe care vizitatorii îl pot achiziţiona de la magazinul muzeului. Traveller Magazin este partener media al evenimentului.\n\n \n\nRUGINOASA A REINTRAT ÎN CIRCUIT\n\nPalatul lui Alexandru Ioan Cuza, din Ruginoasa a fost redeschis pentru vizitare, dupa 6 ani de restaurare minuţioasă. Pentru reabilitarea lui a fost necesari 2,6 milioane de euro, acoperiţi din finanţare europeană. Reamenajarea interioară a fost făcută pe baza unor documente originale de epocă, conform detaliilor orginale de decoraţii de la stofă până la tapiserie, pentru fiecare cameră în parte - a declarat Vlad Velcu, reprezentantul firmei care a executat lucrările. Pentru a satisface cerinţele vizitatorului modern, Palatul de la Ruginoasa a fost dotat cu echipamente de ultimă generaţie de sonorizare şi proiecţie. Astfel turistul este întâmpinat cu un film în care sunt redate cele mai importante fragmente din discursurile primului domnitor al Principatelor Unite.\n\nANTREC A LANSAT....\n\n...a XXI-a ediţie a Programului „Vacanţe la ţară” În perioada 14 aprilie 2013 – 15 iunie 2013 se desfăşoară cea de-a XXI-a ediţie a Programului Special „Vacanţe la ţară”.

Estival, târgul destinat ofertelor turistice, a venit în întâmpinarea vizitatorilor cu oferte inedite şi pachete atractive. Pe perioada celor 4 zile de expoziţie, Estival a grupat agenţii de turism hoteluri şi spa-uri, care vin cu sejururi relaxante, croaziere în insule exotice, dar şi cu circuite aventuroase în ţară şi în străinătate. În ultima zi de târg cei mai norocoşi vizitatori au avut parte de premii şi surprize din partea organizatorilor şi a expozanţilor – ne-a precizat Gabriela Bora, manager de proiect. Traveller Magazin a fost unul dintre Partenerii media ai Târgului de turism Estival.\n\n\nAvem și “O SĂPTĂMÂNĂ LA MUNTE”
\nFederaţia Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR) şi Asociaţia Naţională a Agenţiilor de Turism (ANAT) au lansat cea de-a X-a ediţie a Programului Special “O săptămână la munte”. El se desfăşoară între 14 aprilie şi 14 iunie 2013.

\r\n\r\n\r\nEuro-Toques International şi-a desfăşurat lucrările Adunării generale pe 2013 la Lyon prilej cu care s-au reformulat proiectele şi priorităţile acestei importante organizaţii care-şi are biroul reprezentativ la Bruxelles. Evenimentul a avut mai multe semnificaţii deoarece el s-a desfăşurat chiar în momentul în care maeştri bucătari şi chefi din întreaga lume l-au aniversat pe un legendar bucătar francez, fondator, printre altele, Asociaţiei Euro-Toques International. Paul Bocuse a împlinit 87 de ani. Aniversarea a fost marcată printr-o Seară de gală la care a fost de faţă şi delegaţia României. Ea a fost alcătuită din 8 membrii Euro-Toques din România şi patroni de restaurante româneşti din Franţa şi Luxembourg. La propunerea lui Didier Peschard, preşedintele Euro-Toques Franţa, în cinstea muncii iniţiate de Paul Bocuse, prin crearea asociaţiei ce are ca scop păstrarea moştenirii culinare europene, fiecare ţară membră a prezentat la eveniment un produs tradiţional creat sub sloganul tematic: «Lobby-ul nostrul este produsul ». Maeştrii francezi au avut ocazia să-şi etaleze talentul prin crearea unui meniu special dedicat “Oscarului Gastronomiei”. Iată descrierea lui Dumitru Burtea, preşedintele Euro-Toques România, prezent la acest moment memorabil: « S-a început cu Supa de trufe negre V.G.E, creată de Paul Bocuse în 1975 la Elysée, în onoarea preşedintelui Republicii Franceze - Valery Giscard d’Estaing. După care au urmat Cassolette de homar cu legume; Suprême de pui cu fois gras şi ciuperci morilles; Saint-Marcellin afinat cu « Mère Richard » şi brânză proaspătă de capră sau cremă de brânză albă; Delicii şi deserturi fine; Petits fours şi ciocolată. Toate acestea au fost armonizate cu şampanie: Brut Royale Réserve en magnum, Brut Grand Blanc 2005 Pur Chardonnay, Royale Réserve Non dosé, Brut Cuvée 1522 Grand cru 2004 respectiv cu vinurile: Haut Médoc Château Peyre Lebade 2009 – Baron Benjamin Rothschild, Porto Taylor’s Select Reserve Port. Am fost onoraţi să participăm la acest eveniment unic care a cinstit cariera marelui Bocuse. De altfel elita bucătarilor români a fost alături de familia profesioniştilor Euro-Toques Franţa în 2008 şi 2010, cand l-a vizitat pe Paul Bocuse la el acasă, acesta fiind plăcut impresionat de prezenţa delegaţiei române. »\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Paul-Bocuse.jpg\" "\\"Paul")
\r\n\r\nDumitru Burtea a ţinut să ne precizeze că de altfel la începutul acestui an tot la Lyon s-a desfăşurat Finala Concursului Bocuse d’Or 2013. Medalia de aur, trofeul şi suma de 20.000 de euro au fost câştigate de maestrul bucătar francez Thibaut Ruggeri, acesta fiind al şaptelea reprezentant al Franţei care şi-a adjudecat distincţia. El a fost secondat de danezul Jeppe Foldager (argint), respectiv japonezul Noriyuki Hamada (bronz).\r\n\r\nDar programul deplasării în Franţa a echipei de bucătari români a inclus şi participarea la un Colocviu ce avut ca temă pescuitul durabil, eveniment organizat în parteneriat cu Alianţa Produselor Marii. În scopul promovării produselor piscicole din ţara noastră, membrii Euro-Toques România au realizat reţete pe bază de peşte, crustacee şi fructe de mare. Ele au fost publicate în « Pescuitul şi acvacultura în Europa », revistă a Comisiei Europene tradusă şi distribuită în 24 de ţări europene. La realizarea preparatelor au contribuit nume prestigioase: Dumitru Burtea (Medalion de nisetru cu raci, icre negre şi ouă de prepeliţă), Nicolae Urs (Saramură românească de crap cu ganitură de mămăliguţă), Ioan Florescu (File de calcan posat cu legume gratinate), Cornelia Ghişoi (Somon în mantie aurie cu garnitură de legume gratinte), Robert Man (Lup de mare în crustă de cartofi şi dovlecel), Liviu Onica (Dorada cu sos de roşii şi piure de ţelină), Giovanii Piselli (Paste cu midii şi cartofi, gătite în stil italian), respectiv Jakob Hausmann (Păstrav la cuptor în sos piperat de muştar).\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU','PAUL BOCUSE – Un Regal aniversar, GASTRONOMIE nr.109','','publish','open','open','','paul-bocuse-un-regal-aniversar-gastronomie-nr-109','','','2013-05-28 11:46:51','2013-05-28 09:46:51','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2065',0,'post','',0),(2066,1,'2013-05-28 11:45:59','2013-05-28 09:45:59','','Paul Bocuse 2','','inherit','open','open','','paul-bocuse-2','','','2013-05-28 11:45:59','2013-05-28 09:45:59','',2065,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Paul-Bocuse-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2067,1,'2013-05-28 11:46:15','2013-05-28 09:46:15','','Paul Bocuse','','inherit','open','open','','paul-bocuse','','','2013-05-28 11:46:15','2013-05-28 09:46:15','',2065,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Paul-Bocuse.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2068,1,'2013-05-28 11:45:12','2013-05-28 09:45:12','','PAUL BOCUSE – Un Regal aniversar, GASTRONOMIE nr.109','','inherit','open','open','','2065-revision','','','2013-05-28 11:45:12','2013-05-28 09:45:12','',2065,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2013/05/28/2065-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2070,1,'2013-05-28 12:05:20','2013-05-28 10:05:20','Industria turismului şi a ospitalităţii şi-a desemnat câştigătorii la Gala Premiilor de Excelenţă\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Gala-Premiilor-de-Excelenta-jpg.jpg\" "\\"Gala")

\r\n
Unele dintre cele mai frumoase momente ale unei călătorii este momentul în care realizezi că ai devenit mai înţelept, mai deschis, mai bogat...\r\nAfrica pare a fi guvernată de proverbul swahilli care spune fii bun cu cel care este rău cu tine şi tratează bine pe cel care se poartă rău cu tine. Acest proverb se oglindeşte în întreg comportamentul localnicilor faţă de turişti, pornind de la zâmbet, ospitalitate, modul în care vorbesc despre ţara lor, mândria de a fi kenyeni.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Kenia-02461.jpg\" "\\"Kenia")
\r\nFrumusetea peisajelor Kenyei e greu de explicat. Solul bogat în fier are o culoare roşu rubinie, savana după sezonul ploios este de un verde crud, iar norii sunt adesea coloraţi în negru şi bleu. Cromatica este cea care bucură cel mai tare ochiul. Odată intraţi în Parcul naţional, poţi vedea zeci de elefanţi, familii întregi, fiecare având peste 10-15 membri, nenumarate păsări, turme de antilope, babuini. Cel mai dorit şi râvnit peisaj rămâne însă cel cu lei. Am avut norocul ca atunci când am ajuns în sfârşit în Parcul naţional, după lungul drum, aproape de zona de intrare am întâlnit 5 lei care vânseră o zebră. Deşi era seară, imaginea era absolut spectaculoasă. Coastele zebrei devorate de lei erau dezgolite de carne, iar animalele stăteau tolănite şi se spălau precum pisicile de casă după o masă copioasă.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Kenia0355.jpg\" "\\"Kenia0355\\"")
La taifas cu cu maimuţe şi antilope\r\nKeren Blixen spunea în cartea ecranizată “Out of Africa” că ,,ştii cu adevărat că trăieşti abia când te aflii în preajma unui leu”. Pot spune că în acel moment ai adrenalina la maxim. Nu ştii ce să faci: să stai ascuns, să deschizi un pic geamul şi să faci poze, sau să stai pur şi simplu şi să admiri frumuseţea naturii. Simţi că prinzi viaţă prin prisma numeroaselor trăiri interioare provocate de bucurie, fericire, frică.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Kenia775.jpg\" "\\"Kenia775\\"")
\r\nÎn final am ajuns la hotelul din parcul Tsavo Est şi ne-am cazat. Hotelul este situat pe un deal. De acolo se coboară jos pe nişte scări, după care se merge printr-un tunel până la un buncăr de unde se ppt vedea animalele ce vin să bea apă la un lac special amenajat pentru perioada de secetă. A doua zi de dimineaţă am plecat la ora 6 dimineaţa în safari. Toată lumea era entuziasmată şi abia aştepta să vadă animalele. În Africa până şi animalele zâmbesc. Elefanţii stăteau la poză, maimuţele se jucau, antilopele se uitau fix la noi sau la aparatele foto. Dintr-o dată, după vreo două ore de mers prin savană, toate maşinile au început să se întoarcă din drum şi să pornească un fel de cursă spre o destinaţie necunoscută nouă. La mijlocul drumului am fost anunţaţi de către şofer că obiectivul era un ghepard. O splendoare de felină care se plimba leneşă printre tufişurile savanei. După nebunia provocata de dorinţa de a vedea cât mai multe animale, dar şi de cursa făcută pentru a foto-vâna un ghepard, ne-am reîntors la hotel lihniţi de foame. Ne-am regalat şi am profitat din plin şi de timpul liber. Peisajul văzut de la hotel era incredibil. Familiile de elefanţi veneau rând pe rând la micul lac din faţă pentru a se juca în apă şi pentru a se adăpa. Nicio familie nu se intersecta cu alta şi când simţeau că vine o altă familie dinspre pădure, elefanţii care erau în apă se adunau şi plecau pentru a-i lăsa şi pe ceilalţi. Organizarea şi respectul unora pentru ceilalţi era incredibil. A doua zi am plecat devreme într-un mini safari pentru a căuta giraffe, dar nu am găsit decât unele care erau foarte departe, dar am avut norocul să vedem struţii kenieni care sunt rozalii.\r\nÎn jurul unui foc… tradiţional\r\n\r\nDupa prânz, în drum spre Mombasa, ne-am oprit pentru a vedea un trib Masaai. Experienţa a fost incredibilă. Am fost întâmpinţi de unul dintre barbaţii tribului şi acesta ne-a prezentat fiecare căsuţă în parte. Membrii tribului trăiesc încă în mod tradiţional. Casele sunt făcute dintr-un chirpici roşu şi au doar două camere (sufragerie şi dormitor). Găteau afară, iar apa pe care o foloseau era apă de ploaie. Casele sunt dispuse în cerc în jurul unei zone destinate animalelor. Principala ocupaţie este creşterea animalelor domestice. Am fost invitaţi în casele lor, în care exista un scaun şi o sfoară pe care se întind diverse obiecte. În dormitor, mamele dorm cu fetele, iar taţii cu băieţii, toţi în aceeaşi cameră. După ce am vizitat casele, am făcut poze cu copiii şi am întrebat diverse lucruri despre viaţa lor. Am aflat printe altele că preferă să trăiască în mod tradiţional şi să nu se mute la oraş. Deoarece acolo ar ajunge să trăiască şi mai rău datorită penuriei locurilor de muncă. Băştinaşii ne-au arătat cum se face focul în mod tradiţional, după care s-au dat în spectacol interpretând dansuri specifice tribului Masaai.\r\nCopii sunt obligaţi în Kenya să facă şcoala primară, aşa că am putut comunica în limba engleză cu toată lumea din sat. Deşi nu beneficiază de confortul cu care noi suntem obişnuiţi, nici măcar electricitate, ei erau fericiţi. Copiii erau foarte veseli şi dornici să ne cunoască. După vizitarea satului, ne-am continuat drumul spre Mombasa. El trecea prin numeroase sate, unele mai mari, altele mai mici, unele mai bogate (aveau apa şi magazine), altele mai sărace (locuitorii erau nevoiţi să care bidoane de apă de la kilometri depărtare pentru băut, gătit sau spălat), dar toţi locuitorii ne făceau cu mâna şi ne zâmbeau. Satele păreau parcă desprinse din poveştile coloniale despre viaţa africanilor.\r\nMombasa – simbolul colţilor de elefant\r\nPe seara am ajuns la hotelul din Mombasa Sud. Un hotel plin de baobabi în curte, cu o arhitectura ce îţi amintea de perioada colonială. Mombasa este unul dintre cele mai importante oraşe ale Africii de Est, acesta fiind cel mai mare port de pe coasta de est şi totodată principala sursă de aprovizionare pentru ţările din Africa centrală. Oraşul Mombasa este situat pe insula cu acelaşi nume. Insula este legată în partea de nord printr-un pod, iar în sudul acesteia conexiunea se realizează cu un ferryboat. Interesant este că la acest ferryboat coada este permanent de cel puţin o oră, uneori chiar de trei ore, iar traficul pietonal, dar şi de maşini, este impresionant de mare. Pe insula Mombasa se pot vedea colţii de elefant - simbolul oraşului, inaugurat la vizita Reginei Elisabeta a II-a a Marii Britanii în 1952. Un alt obiectiv turistic al Mombasei este piaţa de legume şi fructe, unde interesantă este zona de condimente, prin multitudinea de culori si arome. La fel de impresionant este Fortul Iisus ce datează din secolul XIV, de pe vremea portughezilor. Toţi cei ce au trecut prin Mombasa au adăugat ceva la acest fort. Fortul era important pentru tranzitul sclavilor şi de aceea aici se făceau multe opriri pentru aprovizionarea navelor. O lunga perioada oraşul a fost sub stăpânirea arabilor şi asta se observă uşor în arhitectura oraşului vechi, dar şi în interiorul fortului Iisus. Hotelurile de tip resort se pot găsi atât în nordul, cât şi în sudul Mombasei. Plajele sunt late, albe şi au nisip extrem de fin, iar Oceanul Indian este mereu cald.
Feţele fericirii\r\nCe exprimă filosofia locului? Cel mai frumos lucru pe care îl poţi învăţa de la africani este cum să te bucuri de fiecare moment, cum să profiţi la maxim de orice clipă de lumină şi cum să transmiţi şi celorlalţi fericirea prin prietenie şi zâmbete. Chiar dacă locuiesc în case de chirpici, nu au electricitate şi au parte de ploi torenţiale care inundă tot, ei sunt fericiţi. Un european ajuns aici poate rămâne şocat de condiţii în care trăiesc majoritatea oamenilor în junglă, mai ales că îi vede şi fericiţi. Până la urmă fericirea se raportează la ceea ce eşti, nu neapărat la ceea ce ai. HAKUNA MATATA! (nu e nicio problemă!!)\r\n\r\nMĂDĂLINA NICOLESCU

MEMENTO PARK: Nimic despre nostalgici !\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Buda-0981.jpg\" "\\"Buda")
\r\n
După 1990 românii s-au grăbit să demoleze, să distrugă şi să arunce, te miri unde, statuile ce amintesc de perioada comunistă. Ungurii, mai iuţi la mânie decât noi, s-au dovedit însă mult mai înţelepţi. De ce să arunce la gunoi o parte din istoria trăită. Aşa că le-au strâns pe toate şi le-au grupat într-un muzeu care să vorbească despre constrângerile, victoriile şi dramele timpurilor care au fost.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Buda-1171.jpg\" "\\"Buda")
Se numeşte Memento Park. Proiectul arhitectural a fost câştigat şi executat de către Casa de arhitectură Badasz & Partner şi asociatul lor Akos Eleod. Parcul a fost deschis în 1993, în câmpia Tetony, şi se află la câţiva zeci de kilometri de Budapesta. “Parcul aminteşte prin toate componentele lui de dictatură. În acelaşi timp acest spaţiu deschis, cultural şi istoric, a fost construit în aşa fel încât să poată vorbi şi despre democraţie. La urma urmei numai democraţia este în stare să ne ofere posibilitatea să gândim liber despre dictatura pe care am trăit-o. Sau despre cum democraţia a putut ajunge sau nu aici” – scria Akos Eleod.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Buda-1391.jpg\" "\\"Buda")
\r\nLa deschidere Memento Park a cunoscut un boom turistic, acumulat atât de localnici cât şi de turiştii internaţionali, veniţi în grupuri ori individual. Anual trec pe aici circa 25-30.000 de vizitatori. Aţi crede că majoritatea sunt nostalgicii care mai caută cioburi de istorie. Greşit. Muzeul atrage săptămânal mii de tineri, elevi şi studenţi, care descind aici pentru a deschide o carte de istorie. În ea se regăseşte o parte din timpul trăit de părinţii lor. Sunt însoţiţi de profesoriilor iar ghizii specializaţi ai instituţiei le oferă date ambalate cât mai atractiv pentru a le capta atenţia. Le vorbesc despre locul unde se află tone de socialism şi comunism, în forme de statui şi ansabluri memoriale. Memento Park e recomandat şi e vizibil pe toate hărţile turistice ale Budapestei. Statuile gigantice ale liderilor comunişti şi socialişti care au fost dislocate din centrul şi locurile publice ale Budapestei, exprimă megalomania sovieticilor exportată şi sub formă artistică, în celelalte ţări unde socialismul a ieşit victorios până şi-a dat obştescul sfârşit. Statuile lui Lenin, Marx, Engels ne iau în primire, îngândurate, încă de la intrare. Ne privesc cu indulgenţă, de la mai bine de 10 metri înăţime, Soldatul sovietic, în numeroase ipostaze eroice, Dimitrov, Bela Kun, Janos Asztalos, Ferenc Munnich etc. Pe o altă latură sunt expuse monumente memoriale dedicate „Luptătorului ungar” în Războiul Civil din Spania, aniversărilor Partidului Comunist Ungar, Martirilor, Eroilor şi Voluntarilor ungari, pionierilor, miliţienilor. Alte lucrări amintesc despre... prietenia sovieto-ungară, care dacă e să ne inspirăm din titlul unui film, a fost sau n-a prea fost. Mai multe statui dedicate muncitorilor, plini de muşchii şi forţa cu care au construit socialismul, sunt grupate într-un loc aparte. E un semn probabil de respect pentru vremea când unii chiar au muncit pe rupte pentru a ne lăsa lucruri durabile de care să ne bucurăm şi azi.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Buda-1441.jpg\" "\\"Buda")
\r\nSingura personalitate care nu şi-a avut locul aici este Stalin. El este evocat doar printr-o pereche de... cizme cu o înălţime de peste 2 metri, în care era „încălţată” statuia sa de dimensiuni uriaşe – ne-a explicat Orsolya Madary, directorul de comunicare al Memento Park. Cizmele sunt amplasate pe un soclu în afara muzeului. Ele sunt încadrate de două clădiri ce amintesc de barăcile care se montau pe şantiere, construite din tablă, lemn şi placaje. În interior sunt găzduite expoziţii permanente cu fotografii din istoria Budapestei şi comunismului ungar, imagini de la Eliberarea Budapestei, act la care a contribuit până la sacrificiu şi armata română, apoi de la momentele căderii comunismului amplu ilustrată prin demolarea statuilor care evocau acea perioadă. Majoritatea sunt azi grupate în parcul tematic. Cei care erau mici pe vremurile acelea eroice, şi la propriu şi la figurat, au ocazia să trăiască experienţe alternative. În spaţii special amenajate, cu piese originale, pot fi văzute camere pentru interogatorii dar şi un mini-cinematograf, un fel de „multiplex” cu televizoare alb-negru pe ecranele cărora se urmăresc filme reale, nu artistice, despre cum acţionau organele de securitate în urmărirea duşmanilor poporului, cum erau filaţi spionii occidentali, cum se racolau informatorii, cum acţionau organele de miliţie etc. Şi mai ales cum erau convinşi ori compromişi, prin presiuni subtile, membrii sau nemembrii ai partidului comunist care ocupau sau nu funcţii de vază. Aşa îşi pot da seama că, în anumite privinţe, nu a apărut nimic nou sub soare.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Buda-1561.jpg\" "\\"Buda")
\r\nÎncruntaţi sau zâmbitori, în funcţie de cum le-au căzut aceste lecţii de istorie, turiştii se îndreaptă spre magazinul de suveniruri, de unde îşi pot procura amintiri inscripţionate cu mesaje şi chipuri din acele vremuri. Atmosfera muzicală aparţine epocii, ca şi copiile după afişele, fotografiile, obiectele de uz casnic. La mare căutare – ni se spune – este cutia de conserve în care se află... ultima suflare a comunismului. O cutie plină cu aer, ce are imprimate pe un ambalaj roşu, secera şi ciocanul.\r\nDar Memento Park nu este numai un muzeu. El a fost organizat şi ca un spaţiu cultural unde anual sunt găzduite expoziţii de artă contemporană, festivaluri, întâlniri profesionale şi evenimente publice. În viitor aici este proiectată şi organizarea unui festival cultural Retro. De vizitat.

California: NU plajă! DA pătrunjel!\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/SUA-berry-lady-2.jpg\" "\\"OLYMPUS")
\r\n\r\nPentru mulţi dintre iubitorii de călătorii California înseamnă plaje, surf, un oraş de poveste precum San Francisco, patria vedetelor americane. Vinurile sunt şi ele cunoscute dar, ştiaţi că regiunea este cel mai mare exportator de... fructe în şi din SUA!? La 38 de milioane de locuitori ai statului sunt peste 80.000 de producători locali. Citiţi în continuare un reportaj realizat în urma unui circuit turistic pe la câteva ferme californiene. Am rămas încântaţi de cum fac unii bani din turism scoţând la înaintare... poveşti agricole.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/SUA-olivina-oil-Livermoore-1.jpg\" "\\"OLYMPUS")
Fructe de pădure, afine şi zmeură!\r\nGayle Willems a fost profesoară în localitatea (satul mai bine zis) Kingsburg. La un moment dat s-a alăturat soţului său, într-o pasiune comună pentru... arbuştii de fructe de pădure. Acum au o fermă de care se ocupă toată familia, iar produsele sale, ajung chiar şi în Europa. Numele de cod al doamnei este Berry Lady iar la ea poţi găsi câteva sortimente de afine. Vizita începe într-o hală de lemn pe exterior, cu câteva explicaţii despre afacere. Apoi se iese la câmp, şi se face o plimbare printre rândurile de arbuşti. „Îmi place să primesc grupuri cărora să le explic munca noastră la fermă – spune Gayle. Ne plimbăm printre copăcei, gustăm din toate fructele şi învăţăm din ce în ce mai mult despre natură. Nu numai copii sunt încântaţi: avem mulţi vizitatori din împrejurimi care se bucură de o zi la fermă, în soare, în natură”. La sfârşitul lunii mai, în California, fructele se coc iar la ferma lui Gayle miroase parcă a sirop. Ea poartă, ca toţi angajaţii de altfel, un şorţ imprimat cu fructe de pădure. Vizita se încheie în acelaşi hambar de la început, unde poţi vedea cum se sortează şi ambalează fructele. Urmează standul de produse al fermei de unde poţi cumpăra cutiuţe cu delicioasele bobiţe parfumate cu care ţi-ai umplut gura în timpul turului, dar şi şorţul, deja celebru, al doamnei.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/SUA-Peck-Ranch-14.jpg\" "\\"OLYMPUS")
120 de secrete din Livermore\r\nCalifornia deţine mari ferme de piersici în care fructele, încă tari, se ambalează în cutii şi se trimit peste tot în lume. Dacă acesta este însă un comerţ deja de en-gros, o surpriză pentru mine au reprezentat-o livezile de măslini. Cui i-ar fi trecut prin minte să vină la o degustare de ulei de măsline tocmai aici!? Livermore este o zonă de dealuri joase pline de sicomori. Aici se găseşte o proprietate de film, stăpânită de către familia Crohare de prin anii ‘50: Olivina. Livezile de măslini au peste 11.000 pomi, varietăţi adaptate: spaniole, italiene sau franceze. Degustările de ulei de măsline cer la fel de mult timp şi poezie ca şi cele de vinuri. Sortimentele se pun în pahare de plastic şi se încălzesc, rând pe rând în palmă. Aflăm că un ulei de măsline extravirgin, de cea mai bună calitate, trebuie să miroasă a verde, a pajişte. Gustul să fie plăcut pe limbă dar să... zgârie la înghiţire şi câte alte zeci de reguli. În cadrul unui pachet cu degustare, turiştii sunt îmbiaţi cu 4 – 5 sortimente din specialităţile producătorului, apoi cu prăjituri aromate cu... ulei de măsline ori alte preparate, în funcţie de preţul plătit. La finalul vizitei de minim două ore fiecare participant primeşte şi o listă cu 120 utilizări tradiţionale ale uleiului de măsline. Aflăm astfel că e bun la lustruirea mobilei, ajută la vindecarea arsurilor şi rănilor, ustensilele din metal nu ruginesc dacă sunt unse cu ulei de măsline etc.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/SUASumner-Peck-Ranch-8.jpg\" "\\"OLYMPUS")
O fermă chic în alb şi roz\r\nDrumul, o autostradă singuratică, trece printre dealuri joase, cu pământ arid, gălbui. Totul pare ars şi amorţit de soarele puternic. Sumner Peck Ranch apare chiar ca o oază. Via tânără modifică geometria spaţiului iar conceptul fermei în sine este greu de explicat. În primul rând clădirea uşoară arată de la distanţă ca un cort elegant de nunţi sau ca o seră pentru trandafiri agăţători. Pereţii sunt aproape numai din ferestre, interiorul străluceşte alb, de la podea până la perdele, iar contrastul cu cerul clar, albastru, şi inoxul lustruit al bucătăriei, la vedere, te lasă fără cuvinte. Detaliile ies în evidenţă, marcate prin culori pastelate, sau prin obiecte deosebite. Verdeţurile sunt aşezate pe cuburi de gheaţă, fructele se ţin în coşuri de nuia sub umbrele roşii, ceaiul sau răcoritoarele sunt servite într-un fel de living cu canapele albe, sau pe terasa plină de flori, între perne pufoase. Aşa denumita fermă este în fapt o combinaţie uimitor de elegantă şi confortabilă, fără pretenţii însă, de popas pentru călători cu cafenea, bar de vinuri şi magazin de produse proaspete din zonă. Zona în sine nu are nimic atractiv însă locaţia este magnetică. Pur şi simplu mi-a trecut prin minte gândul că e locul perfect de a petrece o după-amiază de vacanţă... la ţară, în California.\r\nConcluzia! Care este secretul reuşitei unui circuit turistic... pe la ferme? Şi mă gândesc aici la turistul obişnuit, nu la specialişti în agronomie... Nu e de ajuns să ai roşii, livezi de meri, sute de hectare de vie – adică ferma şi produsele în sine. În California face turism, şi câştigă bine din asta, agricultorul inventiv. El nu doar produce, ambalează şi vinde. El combină acel ceva natural cu ceva practic, cu ceva frumos, cu pasiunea, cu plăcerea de a povesti. Apoi vinde turul fermei sale şi degustarea cu 7-8 dolari de persoană (la un grup de 50 de persoane). Se adaugă veniturile din produsele cumpărate de turiştii înnebuniţi de mereu noile concepte de „organic”, „natural” şi „bio” (mai scumpe pentru că sunt mai bune!), plus o apă, o cafea, un suc la terasa frumos amenajată – rustic, tradiţional sau chic – cum vrea el. Rezultă un minim de 500 dolari aduşi de un grup de turişti! Un calcul simplu, bazic, arată că agricultorul californian a câştigat bine din 2-3 ore de muncă pe zi şi este foarte mulţumit. Şi cum să nu fie!\r\n\r\nPrăjitură cu ulei de măsline: 3 ouă, 2 pahare zahăr, o jumătate pahar ulei extravirgin şi încă unul şi un sfert de lapte se amestecă bine. La compoziţie se adaugă puţin suc de portocale, sucul de la o lămâie, 2 pahare de făină, jumătate lingură praf copt şi sare. Amestecul se pune în forme mici, 15 minute, în cuptorul preâncălzit la 350 C. Pofta buna!

10:51:24','KENYA – Puterea unui proverb swahilli\n\n
Unele dintre cele mai frumoase momente ale unei călătorii este momentul în care realizezi că ai devenit mai înţelept, mai deschis, mai bogat...\nAfrica pare a fi guvernată de proverbul swahilli care spune fii bun cu cel care este rău cu tine şi tratează bine pe cel care se poartă rău cu tine. Acest proverb se oglindeşte în întreg comportamentul localnicilor faţă de turişti, pornind de la zâmbet, ospitalitate, modul în care vorbesc despre ţara lor, mândria de a fi kenyeni.\n\nFrumusetea peisajelor Kenyei e greu de explicat. Solul bogat în fier are o culoare roşu rubinie, savana după sezonul ploios este de un verde crud, iar norii sunt adesea coloraţi în negru şi bleu. Cromatica este cea care bucură cel mai tare ochiul. Odată intraţi în Parcul naţional, poţi vedea zeci de elefanţi, familii întregi, fiecare având peste 10-15 membri, nenumarate păsări, turme de antilope, babuini. Cel mai dorit şi râvnit peisaj rămâne însă cel cu lei. Am avut norocul ca atunci când am ajuns în sfârşit în Parcul naţional, după lungul drum, aproape de zona de intrare am întâlnit 5 lei care vânseră o zebră. Deşi era seară, imaginea era absolut spectaculoasă. Coastele zebrei devorate de lei erau dezgolite de carne, iar animalele stăteau tolănite şi se spălau precum pisicile de casă după o masă copioasă.\n
La taifas cu cu maimuţe şi antilope\nKeren Blixen spunea în cartea ecranizată “Out of Africa” că ,,ştii cu adevărat că trăieşti abia când te aflii în preajma unui leu”. Pot spune că în acel moment ai adrenalina la maxim. Nu ştii ce să faci: să stai ascuns, să deschizi un pic geamul şi să faci poze, sau să stai pur şi simplu şi să admiri frumuseţea naturii. Simţi că prinzi viaţă prin prisma numeroaselor trăiri interioare provocate de bucurie, fericire, frică.\n\nÎn final am ajuns la hotelul din parcul Tsavo Est şi ne-am cazat. Hotelul este situat pe un deal. De acolo se coboară jos pe nişte scări, după care se merge printr-un tunel până la un buncăr de unde se ppt vedea animalele ce vin să bea apă la un lac special amenajat pentru perioada de secetă. A doua zi de dimineaţă am plecat la ora 6 dimineaţa în safari. Toată lumea era entuziasmată şi abia aştepta să vadă animalele. În Africa până şi animalele zâmbesc. Elefanţii stăteau la poză, maimuţele se jucau, antilopele se uitau fix la noi sau la aparatele foto. Dintr-o dată, după vreo două ore de mers prin savană, toate maşinile au început să se întoarcă din drum şi să pornească un fel de cursă spre o destinaţie necunoscută nouă. La mijlocul drumului am fost anunţaţi de către şofer că obiectivul era un ghepard. O splendoare de felină care se plimba leneşă printre tufişurile savanei. După nebunia provocata de dorinţa de a vedea cât mai multe animale, dar şi de cursa făcută pentru a foto-vâna un ghepard, ne-am reîntors la hotel lihniţi de foame. Ne-am regalat şi am profitat din plin şi de timpul liber. Peisajul văzut de la hotel era incredibil. Familiile de elefanţi veneau rând pe rând la micul lac din faţă pentru a se juca în apă şi pentru a se adăpa. Nicio familie nu se intersecta cu alta şi când simţeau că vine o altă familie dinspre pădure, elefanţii care erau în apă se adunau şi plecau pentru a-i lăsa şi pe ceilalţi. Organizarea şi respectul unora pentru ceilalţi era incredibil. A doua zi am plecat devreme într-un mini safari pentru a căuta giraffe, dar nu am găsit decât unele care erau foarte departe, dar am avut norocul să vedem struţii kenieni care sunt rozalii.\nÎn jurul unui foc… tradiţional\n\nDupa prânz, în drum spre Mombasa, ne-am oprit pentru a vedea un trib Masaai. Experienţa a fost incredibilă. Am fost întâmpinţi de unul dintre barbaţii tribului şi acesta ne-a prezentat fiecare căsuţă în parte. Membrii tribului trăiesc încă în mod tradiţional. Casele sunt făcute dintr-un chirpici roşu şi au doar două camere (sufragerie şi dormitor). Găteau afară, iar apa pe care o foloseau era apă de ploaie. Casele sunt dispuse în cerc în jurul unei zone destinate animalelor. Principala ocupaţie este creşterea animalelor domestice. Am fost invitaţi în casele lor, în care exista un scaun şi o sfoară pe care se întind diverse obiecte. În dormitor, mamele dorm cu fetele, iar taţii cu băieţii, toţi în aceeaşi cameră. După ce am vizitat casele, am făcut poze cu copiii şi am întrebat diverse lucruri despre viaţa lor. Am aflat printe altele că preferă să trăiască în mod tradiţional şi să nu se mute la oraş. Deoarece acolo ar ajunge să trăiască şi mai rău datorită penuriei locurilor de muncă. Băştinaşii ne-au arătat cum se face focul în mod tradiţional, după care s-au dat în spectacol interpretând dansuri specifice tribului Masaai.\nCopii sunt obligaţi în Kenya să facă şcoala primară, aşa că am putut comunica în limba engleză cu toată lumea din sat. Deşi nu beneficiază de confortul cu care noi suntem obişnuiţi, nici măcar electricitate, ei erau fericiţi. Copiii erau foarte veseli şi dornici să ne cunoască. După vizitarea satului, ne-am continuat drumul spre Mombasa. El trecea prin numeroase sate, unele mai mari, altele mai mici, unele mai bogate (aveau apa şi magazine), altele mai sărace (locuitorii erau nevoiţi să care bidoane de apă de la kilometri depărtare pentru băut, gătit sau spălat), dar toţi locuitorii ne făceau cu mâna şi ne zâmbeau. Satele păreau parcă desprinse din poveştile coloniale despre viaţa africanilor.\nMombasa – simbolul colţilor de elefant\nPe seara am ajuns la hotelul din Mombasa Sud. Un hotel plin de baobabi în curte, cu o arhitectura ce îţi amintea de perioada colonială. Mombasa este unul dintre cele mai importante oraşe ale Africii de Est, acesta fiind cel mai mare port de pe coasta de est şi totodată principala sursă de aprovizionare pentru ţările din Africa centrală. Oraşul Mombasa este situat pe insula cu acelaşi nume. Insula este legată în partea de nord printr-un pod, iar în sudul acesteia conexiunea se realizează cu un ferryboat. Interesant este că la acest ferryboat coada este permanent de cel puţin o oră, uneori chiar de trei ore, iar traficul pietonal, dar şi de maşini, este impresionant de mare. Pe insula Mombasa se pot vedea colţii de elefant - simbolul oraşului, inaugurat la vizita Reginei Elisabeta a II-a a Marii Britanii în 1952. Un alt obiectiv turistic al Mombasei este piaţa de legume şi fructe, unde interesantă este zona de condimente, prin multitudinea de culori si arome. La fel de impresionant este Fortul Iisus ce datează din secolul XIV, de pe vremea portughezilor. Toţi cei ce au trecut prin Mombasa au adăugat ceva la acest fort. Fortul era important pentru tranzitul sclavilor şi de aceea aici se făceau multe opriri pentru aprovizionarea navelor. O lunga perioada oraşul a fost sub stăpânirea arabilor şi asta se observă uşor în arhitectura oraşului vechi, dar şi în interiorul fortului Iisus. Hotelurile de tip resort se pot găsi atât în nordul, cât şi în sudul Mombasei. Plajele sunt late, albe şi au nisip extrem de fin, iar Oceanul Indian este mereu cald.
Feţele fericirii\nCe exprimă filosofia locului? Cel mai frumos lucru pe care îl poţi învăţa de la africani este cum să te bucuri de fiecare moment, cum să profiţi la maxim de orice clipă de lumină şi cum să transmiţi şi celorlalţi fericirea prin prietenie şi zâmbete. Chiar dacă locuiesc în case de chirpici, nu au electricitate şi au parte de ploi torenţiale care inundă tot, ei sunt fericiţi. Un european ajuns aici poate rămâne şocat de condiţii în care trăiesc majoritatea oamenilor în junglă, mai ales că îi vede şi fericiţi. Până la urmă fericirea se raportează la ceea ce eşti, nu neapărat la ceea ce ai. HAKUNA MATATA! (nu e nicio problemă!!)\n\nMĂDĂLINA NICOLESCU

MEMENTO PARK: Nimic despre nostalgici !\n\n
După 1990 românii s-au grăbit să demoleze, să distrugă şi să arunce, te miri unde, statuile ce amintesc de perioada comunistă. Ungurii, mai iuţi la mânie decât noi, s-au dovedit însă mult mai înţelepţi. De ce să arunce la gunoi o parte din istoria trăită. Aşa că le-au strâns pe toate şi le-au grupat într-un muzeu care să vorbească despre constrângerile, victoriile şi dramele timpurilor care au fost.\n
Se numeşte Memento Park. Proiectul arhitectural a fost câştigat şi executat de către Casa de arhitectură Badasz & Partner şi asociatul lor Akos Eleod. Parcul a fost deschis în 1993, în câmpia Tetony, şi se află la câţiva zeci de kilometri de Budapesta. “Parcul aminteşte prin toate componentele lui de dictatură. În acelaşi timp acest spaţiu deschis, cultural şi istoric, a fost construit în aşa fel încât să poată vorbi şi despre democraţie. La urma urmei numai democraţia este în stare să ne ofere posibilitatea să gândim liber despre dictatura pe care am trăit-o. Sau despre cum democraţia a putut ajunge sau nu aici” – scria Akos Eleod.\n\nLa deschidere Memento Park a cunoscut un boom turistic, acumulat atât de localnici cât şi de turiştii internaţionali, veniţi în grupuri ori individual. Anual trec pe aici circa 25-30.000 de vizitatori. Aţi crede că majoritatea sunt nostalgicii care mai caută cioburi de istorie. Greşit. Muzeul atrage săptămânal mii de tineri, elevi şi studenţi, care descind aici pentru a deschide o carte de istorie. În ea se regăseşte o parte din timpul trăit de părinţii lor. Sunt însoţiţi de profesoriilor iar ghizii specializaţi ai instituţiei le oferă date ambalate cât mai atractiv pentru a le capta atenţia. Le vorbesc despre locul unde se află tone de socialism şi comunism, în forme de statui şi ansabluri memoriale. Memento Park e recomandat şi e vizibil pe toate hărţile turistice ale Budapestei. Statuile gigantice ale liderilor comunişti şi socialişti care au fost dislocate din centrul şi locurile publice ale Budapestei, exprimă megalomania sovieticilor exportată şi sub formă artistică, în celelalte ţări unde socialismul a ieşit victorios până şi-a dat obştescul sfârşit. Statuile lui Lenin, Marx, Engels ne iau în primire, îngândurate, încă de la intrare. Ne privesc cu indulgenţă, de la mai bine de 10 metri înăţime, Soldatul sovietic, în numeroase ipostaze eroice, Dimitrov, Bela Kun, Janos Asztalos, Ferenc Munnich etc. Pe o altă latură sunt expuse monumente memoriale dedicate „Luptătorului ungar” în Războiul Civil din Spania, aniversărilor Partidului Comunist Ungar, Martirilor, Eroilor şi Voluntarilor ungari, pionierilor, miliţienilor. Alte lucrări amintesc despre... prietenia sovieto-ungară, care dacă e să ne inspirăm din titlul unui film, a fost sau n-a prea fost. Mai multe statui dedicate muncitorilor, plini de muşchii şi forţa cu care au construit socialismul, sunt grupate într-un loc aparte. E un semn probabil de respect pentru vremea când unii chiar au muncit pe rupte pentru a ne lăsa lucruri durabile de care să ne bucurăm şi azi.\n\nSingura personalitate care nu şi-a avut locul aici este Stalin. El este evocat doar printr-o pereche de... cizme cu o înălţime de peste 2 metri, în care era „încălţată” statuia sa de dimensiuni uriaşe – ne-a explicat Orsolya Madary, directorul de comunicare al Memento Park. Cizmele sunt amplasate pe un soclu în afara muzeului. Ele sunt încadrate de două clădiri ce amintesc de barăcile care se montau pe şantiere, construite din tablă, lemn şi placaje. În interior sunt găzduite expoziţii permanente cu fotografii din istoria Budapestei şi comunismului ungar, imagini de la Eliberarea Budapestei, act la care a contribuit până la sacrificiu şi armata română, apoi de la momentele căderii comunismului amplu ilustrată prin demolarea statuilor care evocau acea perioadă. Majoritatea sunt azi grupate în parcul tematic. Cei care erau mici pe vremurile acelea eroice, şi la propriu şi la figurat, au ocazia să trăiască experienţe alternative. În spaţii special amenajate, cu piese originale, pot fi văzute camere pentru interogatorii dar şi un mini-cinematograf, un fel de „multiplex” cu televizoare alb-negru pe ecranele cărora se urmăresc filme reale, nu artistice, despre cum acţionau organele de securitate în urmărirea duşmanilor poporului, cum erau filaţi spionii occidentali, cum se racolau informatorii, cum acţionau organele de miliţie etc. Şi mai ales cum erau convinşi ori compromişi, prin presiuni subtile, membrii sau nemembrii ai partidului comunist care ocupau sau nu funcţii de vază. Aşa îşi pot da seama că, în anumite privinţe, nu a apărut nimic nou sub soare.\n\nÎncruntaţi sau zâmbitori, în funcţie de cum le-au căzut aceste lecţii de istorie, turiştii se îndreaptă spre magazinul de suveniruri, de unde îşi pot procura amintiri inscripţionate cu mesaje şi chipuri din acele vremuri. Atmosfera muzicală aparţine epocii, ca şi copiile după afişele, fotografiile, obiectele de uz casnic. La mare căutare – ni se spune – este cutia de conserve în care se află... ultima suflare a comunismului. O cutie plină cu aer, ce are imprimate pe un ambalaj roşu, secera şi ciocanul.\nDar Memento Park nu este numai un muzeu. El a fost organizat şi ca un spaţiu cultural unde anual sunt găzduite expoziţii de artă contemporană, festivaluri, întâlniri profesionale şi evenimente publice. În viitor aici este proiectată şi organizarea unui festival cultural Retro. De vizitat.

California: NU plajă! DA pătrunjel!\n\n\nPentru mulţi dintre iubitorii de călătorii California înseamnă plaje, surf, un oraş de poveste precum San Francisco, patria vedetelor americane. Vinurile sunt şi ele cunoscute dar, ştiaţi că regiunea este cel mai mare exportator de... fructe în şi din SUA!? La 38 de milioane de locuitori ai statului sunt peste 80.000 de producători locali. Citiţi în continuare un reportaj realizat în urma unui circuit turistic pe la câteva ferme californiene. Am rămas încântaţi de cum fac unii bani din turism scoţând la înaintare... poveşti agricole.\n
Fructe de pădure, afine şi zmeură!\nGayle Willems a fost profesoară în localitatea (satul mai bine zis) Kingsburg. La un moment dat s-a alăturat soţului său, într-o pasiune comună pentru... arbuştii de fructe de pădure. Acum au o fermă de care se ocupă toată familia, iar produsele sale, ajung chiar şi în Europa. Numele de cod al doamnei este Berry Lady iar la ea poţi găsi câteva sortimente de afine. Vizita începe într-o hală de lemn pe exterior, cu câteva explicaţii despre afacere. Apoi se iese la câmp, şi se face o plimbare printre rândurile de arbuşti. „Îmi place să primesc grupuri cărora să le explic munca noastră la fermă – spune Gayle. Ne plimbăm printre copăcei, gustăm din toate fructele şi învăţăm din ce în ce mai mult despre natură. Nu numai copii sunt încântaţi: avem mulţi vizitatori din împrejurimi care se bucură de o zi la fermă, în soare, în natură”. La sfârşitul lunii mai, în California, fructele se coc iar la ferma lui Gayle miroase parcă a sirop. Ea poartă, ca toţi angajaţii de altfel, un şorţ imprimat cu fructe de pădure. Vizita se încheie în acelaşi hambar de la început, unde poţi vedea cum se sortează şi ambalează fructele. Urmează standul de produse al fermei de unde poţi cumpăra cutiuţe cu delicioasele bobiţe parfumate cu care ţi-ai umplut gura în timpul turului, dar şi şorţul, deja celebru, al doamnei.\n
120 de secrete din Livermore\nCalifornia deţine mari ferme de piersici în care fructele, încă tari, se ambalează în cutii şi se trimit peste tot în lume. Dacă acesta este însă un comerţ deja de en-gros, o surpriză pentru mine au reprezentat-o livezile de măslini. Cui i-ar fi trecut prin minte să vină la o degustare de ulei de măsline tocmai aici!? Livermore este o zonă de dealuri joase pline de sicomori. Aici se găseşte o proprietate de film, stăpânită de către familia Crohare de prin anii ‘50: Olivina. Livezile de măslini au peste 11.000 pomi, varietăţi adaptate: spaniole, italiene sau franceze. Degustările de ulei de măsline cer la fel de mult timp şi poezie ca şi cele de vinuri. Sortimentele se pun în pahare de plastic şi se încălzesc, rând pe rând în palmă. Aflăm că un ulei de măsline extravirgin, de cea mai bună calitate, trebuie să miroasă a verde, a pajişte. Gustul să fie plăcut pe limbă dar să... zgârie la înghiţire şi câte alte zeci de reguli. În cadrul unui pachet cu degustare, turiştii sunt îmbiaţi cu 4 – 5 sortimente din specialităţile producătorului, apoi cu prăjituri aromate cu... ulei de măsline ori alte preparate, în funcţie de preţul plătit. La finalul vizitei de minim două ore fiecare participant primeşte şi o listă cu 120 utilizări tradiţionale ale uleiului de măsline. Aflăm astfel că e bun la lustruirea mobilei, ajută la vindecarea arsurilor şi rănilor, ustensilele din metal nu ruginesc dacă sunt unse cu ulei de măsline etc.\n
O fermă chic în alb şi roz\nDrumul, o autostradă singuratică, trece printre dealuri joase, cu pământ arid, gălbui. Totul pare ars şi amorţit de soarele puternic. Sumner Peck Ranch apare chiar ca o oază. Via tânără modifică geometria spaţiului iar conceptul fermei în sine este greu de explicat. În primul rând clădirea uşoară arată de la distanţă ca un cort elegant de nunţi sau ca o seră pentru trandafiri agăţători. Pereţii sunt aproape numai din ferestre, interiorul străluceşte alb, de la podea până la perdele, iar contrastul cu cerul clar, albastru, şi inoxul lustruit al bucătăriei, la vedere, te lasă fără cuvinte. Detaliile ies în evidenţă, marcate prin culori pastelate, sau prin obiecte deosebite. Verdeţurile sunt aşezate pe cuburi de gheaţă, fructele se ţin în coşuri de nuia sub umbrele roşii, ceaiul sau răcoritoarele sunt servite într-un fel de living cu canapele albe, sau pe terasa plină de flori, între perne pufoase. Aşa denumita fermă este în fapt o combinaţie uimitor de elegantă şi confortabilă, fără pretenţii însă, de popas pentru călători cu cafenea, bar de vinuri şi magazin de produse proaspete din zonă. Zona în sine nu are nimic atractiv însă locaţia este magnetică. Pur şi simplu mi-a trecut prin minte gândul că e locul perfect de a petrece o după-amiază de vacanţă... la ţară, în California.\nConcluzia! Care este secretul reuşitei unui circuit turistic... pe la ferme? Şi mă gândesc aici la turistul obişnuit, nu la specialişti în agronomie... Nu e de ajuns să ai roşii, livezi de meri, sute de hectare de vie – adică ferma şi produsele în sine. În California face turism, şi câştigă bine din asta, agricultorul inventiv. El nu doar produce, ambalează şi vinde. El combină acel ceva natural cu ceva practic, cu ceva frumos, cu pasiunea, cu plăcerea de a povesti. Apoi vinde turul fermei sale şi degustarea cu 7-8 dolari de persoană (la un grup de 50 de persoane). Se adaugă veniturile din produsele cumpărate de turiştii înnebuniţi de mereu noile concepte de „organic”, „natural” şi „bio” (mai scumpe pentru că sunt mai bune!), plus o apă, o cafea, un suc la terasa frumos amenajată – rustic, tradiţional sau chic – cum vrea el. Rezultă un minim de 500 dolari aduşi de un grup de turişti! Un calcul simplu, bazic, arată că agricultorul californian a câştigat bine din 2-3 ore de muncă pe zi şi este foarte mulţumit. Şi cum să nu fie!\n\nPrăjitură cu ulei de măsline: 3 ouă, 2 pahare zahăr, o jumătate pahar ulei extravirgin şi încă unul şi un sfert de lapte se amestecă bine. La compoziţie se adaugă puţin suc de portocale, sucul de la o lămâie, 2 pahare de făină, jumătate lingură praf copt şi sare. Amestecul se pune în forme mici, 15 minute, în cuptorul preâncălzit la 350 C. Pofta buna!

Ape termale, welness, spa şi hoteluri de calitate.

Sunt mulţumit că toate cele 4 divizii ale grupului au avut vizibilitate la cel mai mare eveniment de turism din România anului 2013. Am dovedit că în România se pot derula campanii de marketing la acelaşi nivel la care sunt practicate şi în ţările vestice” - ne-a declarat Cristian Pandel, preşedintele Christian Tour Grup. O altă prezenţă distinctă a fost asigurată prin noul concept de organizare a standului promovat de către operatorul Accent Travel & Events.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Expo-ttr-027.jpg\" "\\"Expo")
\r\nConform lui Lucian Boronea “am dorit să îmbinăm conceptul de business cu cel de leisure, punând accent pe turismul intern. Am realizat o amenajare din care s-au degajat opiniile pozitive formulate de personalităţi ori publicaţii româneşti şi străine, despre numeroase atracţii autohtone. Considerăm că trebuie continuată o promovare susţinută a pieţii interne iar firma noastră, prin info-tripurile pe care le realizează anual, contribuie cu succes la acest demers.” De asemenea şi firma Perfect Tour a lansat un nou pachet atractiv: “Super-călătoria anului 2013: În jurul lumii la bordul unui Jumbo-Jet privat”.\r\nÎn ceea ce priveşte activităţile exterioare Târgului de Turism al României, dar cu impact asupra activităţilor lui, am reţinut aniversarea de 20 de ani a touroperatorului Eximtur, alegerea noului preşedinte al ANAT, în persoana doamnei Lucia Morariu şi decernarea la hotelul Phoenicia din Bucureşti, de către ANTREC, a trofeelor “Margareta de Aur”, care au recompensat cele mai valoroase investiţii şi expresii ale ospitalităţii din domeniul turismului rural.\r\n\r\nTTF BRAŞOV – noi investiţii, noi expresii\r\nDeşi este un Târg regional Transylvania Tourism Fair (TTF) Braşov are alură de târg internaţional prin cel puţin două repere: Este găzduit de cea mai elegantă clădire de business din oraş – Braşov Business Park - iar, pe de altă parte, dincolo de expozanţii din industria turistică, oferă la fiecare ediţie un program de manifestări profesionale, care atrag spre sălile de conferinţe mii de specialişti, invitaţi ori vizitatori. Toate acestea sunt susţinute de sponsori naţionali dar şi internaţionali. Fireşte, partenerii – Primăria Braşovului, ANAT şi Autoritatea Naţională pentru Turism – au contribuit la susţinerea Târgului. Sorin Dencescu, preşedintele firmei organizatoare Kron-Tour Lufthansa City Center, a declarat că numărul expozanţilor a depăşit pragul de 90, ceea ce exprimă un interes constant pentru a VI-a ediţie ce s-a consumat între 29 şi 31 martie. Primarul Braşovului Gheorghe Scripcaru, este de părere că Transylvania Tourism Fair este un eveniment de marcă al oraşului care creeză în fiecare an plus-valoare industriei turistice. El a amintit de succesul de imagine al FOTE, olimpiada europeană de iarnă pentru tineret şi că instituţia pe care o conduce e preocupată să atragă şi alte manifestări de calibru.\r\nDeoarece spaţiul nu ne permite mai mult, vom aminti doar câteva noutăţi ce au atras atenţia vizitatorilor (circa 4.000).Vedeta a fost intrarea pe piaţă cu 81 de camere, a investiţiei Kronwell - primul hotel business & lifestyle de 4 stele din Braşov, prezentat în numărul anterior. Pe segmentul travel agenţilor am remarcat revenirea, după mulţi ani, a firmei braşovene Micomis. Noua echipă condusă de Mihaela Preda, a etalat mai multe programe printre care şi Zborurile de agrement. Dacă vreţi să trăiţi momente unice vi se oferă două scenarii: zbor deasupra Braşovului, de unde pot fi admirate, Biserica Neagră, Casa Sfatului, Şchei, Poarta Ecaterina, Tâmpa, Vârful Postăvarul, Piatra Mare, respectiv din zona Bran, de unde puteţi vedea din noi perspective Castelul, Cetatea Râşnov, până la Cheile Râşnoavei, Zărneşti, Ghimbav, Cristian etc. Sunt folosite aeronave Cessna 210 sau 172, zborul durează aproximativ 30 de minute şi se efectuează pentru maxim 3 pasageri. Pachetul turistic este oferit la 100 de euro. Rezervările ferme se pot face cu cel puţin 48 de ore înainte. Alte amănunte puteţi afla la adresa www.micomis.ro.\r\n\r\nPe segmentul turistico-artistic foarte frecventate au fost expoziţiile fotografice – România Sălbatică, organizată de Dan Dinu, Lofoten – luminile nordului, semnată de Dan Dinu, Alex Bobeică, Vlad Popescu şi Lucian Brânduş, respectiv Arhitecţii şi arhitectura în Braşov (1870-1914), expoziţie organizată de Ordinul Arhitecţilor din România. Din programul de manifestări am remarcat prezentarea de către Corina Boronea a sistemului hotelieră integrator Yield Planet, implementat şi în numeroase unităţi din zona Braşovului. Alte trei chestiuni de imagine au individualizat actuala ediţie: vizita Miss Universe România 2012, în persoana Deliei Duca, o braşoveancă frumoasă care lucrează la o firmă de IT din oraş; degustările de vinuri de la standul presei de turism, respectiv sesiunile de autografe oferite tinerilor studenţi-voluntari - de la Facultăţile de Ştiinţe Economice şi Administrarea Afacerilor din Braşov, respectiv de Alimentaţie şi Turism din Braşov -, de scriitorul Marian Constantinescu, pe ultimele sale cărţi de turism. Dialogul cu noile generaţii ne-a încântat. Traveller Magazin a fost Partener Media al târgurilor amintite.

EXPO GASTROPAN : Bijuterii din făină, marţipan şi morcovi \r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Pane-029.jpg\" "\\"Pane")
\r\nDacă n-aţi fost trebuie să ştiţi măcar ce aţi pierdut. Pentru ca să mergeţi la ediţia viitoare a Expo GastroPan. La centrul Exporom din oraşul Pantelimon a fost – între 11 şi 14 aprilie -, spectacol culinar de zile mari susţinut de peste 130 de brutari, cofetari, patiseri şi bucătari veniţi din ţară dar şi din străinătate.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Pane-031.jpg\" "\\"Pane")
\r\nA fost o expoziţie internaţională ce s-a desfăşurat pe o suprafaţă de 10.000 de metrii pătraţi, cu 70% mai are decât anul trecut. Aici şi-au expus tehnologiile şi produsele peste 120 de firme din 24 de ţări. Circa 40% dintre participanţi au fost străini. Cei mai vizibile au fost România, Ungaria, Germania şi Italia. Toţi participanţii au venit cu noi soluţii, noi echipamente, dotări, materii prime şi utilaje de coacere, procedee de preparare în panificaţie, cofetărie şi gelaterie. Dar asta, ca să spunem aşa, a fost partea specialiştilor. Deliciul lor, al invitaţilor, vizitatorilor şi mediei l-au reprezentat concursurile şi show-urile culinare ori artistice concentrate în jurul următoarelor tematici: Pâinea anului, Tortul anului, Îngheţata anului, al Concursului Cupa de Cristal a Bucureştiului în Arta Culinară. Un alt punct de atracţie a fost asigurat de spaţiul unde a avut loc Concursul de sculptură în fructe şi legume care i-a magnetizat pe vizitatori. Ei au avut ocazia rarisimă să vadă cum din mîinile unor adevăraţi sculptori au ieşit grădini înflorite, buchete de flori, păsări, mici piese faunistice, realizate din sfeclă roşie, ridichi, morcovi, dovleci, pepeni ori castraveţi. Dacă nu le-ai fi putut atinge ai fi exclamat: aşa ceva nu există. Există, cum au existat în zona de cofetărie, zeci de piese de marţipan – aici Ungaria şi-a etalat creaţii de genul viori, pianine, scene în natură -, dar şi românii au stat foarte bine cu creaţii tematice inspirate din istorie ori din mediul familial. La fel de tari au fost brutarii care au venit cu pâini gigantice dar şi gustoase şi au arătat că se poate „cânta” şi la o chitară... din făină coaptă. Cofetarii şi gelatierii au fost la mare căutare pentru că au încântat nu numai prin gust ci şi prin aspectul artistic şi estetic al creaţiilor lor. Poate nu ştiaţi, dar avem în România şi o Academie a Cofetarilor şi asta nu poate decât să ne bucure. Vizitatorii au avut ocazia să testeze şi apa de masă, plată alcalină Perla Moldovei, care deţine o valoare a PH 8,8 şi este oligominerală, ne spune.................. reprezentantul firmei Alcalinia Distribution din Odorheiu Secuiesc. Firma comercializează de asemenea Solio, o bogată gamă de uleiuri alimentare pentru salate presate la rece.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Pane-040.jpg\" "\\"Pane")

\r\nExpo GastroPan este un eveniment ajuns la cea de-a V-a ediţie. Are valoare şi consistenţă, ambele date de organizator, adică de Boro-Info, parte a grupului de panificaţie Boromir. Manifestările au fost onorate de nume grele din lumea de specialitate. Au venit aici Peter Becker, preşedintele Uniunii Internaţionale a Brutarilor (UIB), Pataki Janos, preşedintele de onoare a Uniunii Internaţionale a Patisierilor, Cofetarilor şi Gelatierilor (UIPCG), cărora li s-au alăturat lideri ai unor asociaţii profesionale naţionale, ca preşedintelui Euro-Toques România, Dumitru Burtea, preşedintele ANBCT, Ştefan Bercea, prima Lady Chef din România, doamna Cornelia Ghişoi etc.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Pane-060.jpg\" "\\"Pane")
\r\nFireşte ca să ajungi la un nivel profesionial superior nu e de ajuns numai să te formezi ci trebuie să te perfecţionezi în permanenţă. Aşa că era şi normal ca programul expoziţiei să includă simpozioane şi conferinţe cu subiecte de genul „Cercetătorii în sprijinul industriei alimentare prin inovare şi servicii”, susţinută de Institutul Naţional pentru Bioresurse Alimentare Bucureşti, ori „Provocări actuale pentru industria de morărit şi panificaţie, organizată de ANAMOB. O parte din cei circa 20.000 de vizitatori, specialişti, invitaţi, au fost cu singuranţă atraşi şi de aceste manifestări.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Pane-067.jpg\" "\\"Pane")

Sorin Dencescu, preşedintele firmei organizatoare Kron-Tour Lufthansa City Center, a declarat că numărul expozanţilor a depăşit pragul de 90, ceea ce exprimă un interes constant pentru a VI-a ediţie ce s-a consumat între 29 şi 31 martie. Primarul Braşovului Gheorghe Scripcaru, este de părere că Transylvania Tourism Fair este un eveniment de marcă al oraşului care creeză în fiecare an plus-valoare industriei turistice. El a amintit de succesul de imagine al FOTE, olimpiada europeană de iarnă pentru tineret şi că instituţia pe care o conduce e preocupată să atragă şi alte manifestări de calibru.\nDeoarece spaţiul nu ne permite mai mult, vom aminti doar câteva noutăţi ce au atras atenţia vizitatorilor (circa 4.000).Vedeta a fost intrarea pe piaţă cu 81 de camere, a investiţiei Kronwell - primul hotel business & lifestyle de 4 stele din Braşov, prezentat în numărul anterior. Pe segmentul travel agenţilor am remarcat revenirea, după mulţi ani, a firmei braşovene Micomis. Noua echipă condusă de Mihaela Preda, a etalat mai multe programe printre care şi Zborurile de agrement. Dacă vreţi să trăiţi momente unice vi se oferă două scenarii: zbor deasupra Braşovului, de unde pot fi admirate, Biserica Neagră, Casa Sfatului, Şchei, Poarta Ecaterina, Tâmpa, Vârful Postăvarul, Piatra Mare, respectiv din zona Bran, de unde puteţi vedea din noi perspective Castelul, Cetatea Râşnov, până la Cheile Râşnoavei, Zărneşti, Ghimbav, Cristian etc. Sunt folosite aeronave Cessna 210 sau 172, zborul durează aproximativ 30 de minute şi se efectuează pentru maxim 3 pasageri. Pachetul turistic este oferit la 100 de euro. Rezervările ferme se pot face cu cel puţin 48 de ore înainte. Alte amănunte puteţi afla la adresa www.micomis.ro.\n\nPe segmentul turistico-artistic foarte frecventate au fost expoziţiile fotografice – România Sălbatică, organizată de Dan Dinu, Lofoten – luminile nordului, semnată de Dan Dinu, Alex Bobeică, Vlad Popescu şi Lucian Brânduş, respectiv Arhitecţii şi arhitectura în Braşov (1870-1914), expoziţie organizată de Ordinul Arhitecţilor din România. Din programul de manifestări am remarcat prezentarea de către Corina Boronea a sistemului hotelieră integrator Yield Planet, implementat şi în numeroase unităţi din zona Braşovului. Alte trei chestiuni de imagine au individualizat actuala ediţie: vizita Miss Universe România 2012, în persoana Deliei Duca, o braşoveancă frumoasă care lucrează la o firmă de IT din oraş; degustările de vinuri de la standul presei de turism, respectiv sesiunile de autografe oferite tinerilor studenţi-voluntari - de la Facultăţile de Ştiinţe Economice şi Administrarea Afacerilor din Braşov, respectiv de Alimentaţie şi Turism din Braşov -, de scriitorul Marian Constantinescu, pe ultimele sale cărţi de turism. Dialogul cu noile generaţii ne-a încântat. Traveller Magazin a fost Partener Media al târgurilor amintite.

EXPO GASTROPAN : Bijuterii din făină, marţipan şi morcovi \n\nDacă n-aţi fost trebuie să ştiţi măcar ce aţi pierdut. Pentru ca să mergeţi la ediţia viitoare a Expo GastroPan. La centrul Exporom din oraşul Pantelimon a fost – între 11 şi 14 aprilie -, spectacol culinar de zile mari susţinut de peste 130 de brutari, cofetari, patiseri şi bucătari veniţi din ţară dar şi din străinătate.\n\nA fost o expoziţie internaţională ce s-a desfăşurat pe o suprafaţă de 10.000 de metrii pătraţi, cu 70% mai are decât anul trecut. Aici şi-au expus tehnologiile şi produsele peste 120 de firme din 24 de ţări. Circa 40% dintre participanţi au fost străini. Cei mai vizibile au fost România, Ungaria, Germania şi Italia. Toţi participanţii au venit cu noi soluţii, noi echipamente, dotări, materii prime şi utilaje de coacere, procedee de preparare în panificaţie, cofetărie şi gelaterie. Dar asta, ca să spunem aşa, a fost partea specialiştilor. Deliciul lor, al invitaţilor, vizitatorilor şi mediei l-au reprezentat concursurile şi show-urile culinare ori artistice concentrate în jurul următoarelor tematici: Pâinea anului, Tortul anului, Îngheţata anului, al Concursului Cupa de Cristal a Bucureştiului în Arta Culinară. Un alt punct de atracţie a fost asigurat de spaţiul unde a avut loc Concursul de sculptură în fructe şi legume care i-a magnetizat pe vizitatori. Ei au avut ocazia rarisimă să vadă cum din mîinile unor adevăraţi sculptori au ieşit grădini înflorite, buchete de flori, păsări, mici piese faunistice, realizate din sfeclă roşie, ridichi, morcovi, dovleci, pepeni ori castraveţi. Dacă nu le-ai fi putut atinge ai fi exclamat: aşa ceva nu există. Există, cum au existat în zona de cofetărie, zeci de piese de marţipan – aici Ungaria şi-a etalat creaţii de genul viori, pianine, scene în natură -, dar şi românii au stat foarte bine cu creaţii tematice inspirate din istorie ori din mediul familial. La fel de tari au fost brutarii care au venit cu pâini gigantice dar şi gustoase şi au arătat că se poate „cânta” şi la o chitară... din făină coaptă. Cofetarii şi gelatierii au fost la mare căutare pentru că au încântat nu numai prin gust ci şi prin aspectul artistic şi estetic al creaţiilor lor. Poate nu ştiaţi, dar avem în România şi o Academie a Cofetarilor şi asta nu poate decât să ne bucure. Vizitatorii au avut ocazia să testeze şi apa de masă, plată alcalină Perla Moldovei, care deţine o valoare a PH 8,8 şi este oligominerală, ne spune.................. reprezentantul firmei Alcalinia Distribution din Odorheiu Secuiesc. Firma comercializează de asemenea Solio, o bogată gamă de uleiuri alimentare pentru salate presate la rece.\n\n\n\nExpo GastroPan este un eveniment ajuns la cea de-a V-a ediţie. Are valoare şi consistenţă, ambele date de organizator, adică de Boro-Info, parte a grupului de panificaţie Boromir. Manifestările au fost onorate de nume grele din lumea de specialitate. Au venit aici Peter Becker, preşedintele Uniunii Internaţionale a Brutarilor (UIB), Pataki Janos, preşedintele de onoare a Uniunii Internaţionale a Patisierilor, Cofetarilor şi Gelatierilor (UIPCG), cărora li s-au alăturat lideri ai unor asociaţii profesionale naţionale, ca preşedintelui Euro-Toques România, Dumitru Burtea, preşedintele ANBCT, Ştefan Bercea, prima Lady Chef din România, doamna Cornelia Ghişoi etc.\n\nFireşte ca să ajungi la un nivel profesionial superior nu e de ajuns numai să te formezi ci trebuie să te perfecţionezi în permanenţă. Aşa că era şi normal ca programul expoziţiei să includă simpozioane şi conferinţe cu subiecte de genul „Cercetătorii în sprijinul industriei alimentare prin inovare şi servicii”, susţinută de Institutul Naţional pentru Bioresurse Alimentare Bucureşti, ori „Provocări actuale pentru industria de morărit şi panificaţie, organizată de ANAMOB. O parte din cei circa 20.000 de vizitatori, specialişti, invitaţi, au fost cu singuranţă atraşi şi de aceste manifestări.\n\nMARA ANTON\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\n\n
AEROTRAVEL aduce MSC la Constanţa\r\nPână în toamna acestui an, niciun român nu s-a putut îmbarca pe un vas de croazieră din portul Constanţa. El va deveni însă din 27 septembrie, punct de îmbarcare pentru navele MSC Cruises. Compania va începe să opereze o croazieră din Constanţa, pe un itinerar ce include şase destinaţii (în afară de punctul de plecare). Primii călători se vor îmbarca direct din România la bordul navei MSC Musica. Ei vor pleca într-o croazieră de 11 nopţi pe itinerarul Constanţa-Gythion-Veneţia-Katakolon-Istanbul-Yalta-Odessa-Constanţa. Încă alte 3 curse MSC Musica vor mai porni în aceasta toamnă din portul Constanta, a spus Antonio Niţu, directorul general al Aerotravel Lufthansa City Center, agenţia parteneră a MSC din 2009, care vinde pachete amintite. Niţu estimează că pe această croazieră vor merge, până la finele lui 2013, circa 400 de români. Anul trecut, compania a vândut 3.000 de croaziere în România dar cu îmbarcare din porturi din afara ţării pe navele MSC, iar anul acesta estimează o creştere cu 50%. MSC Cruises este una dintre cele mai mari linii de croazieră europene. Ea avut anul trecut 1,4 milioane de pasageri.\r\nÎn ceea ce priveşte oraşul Constanţa, el a fost până acum doar un port de escală în itinerarul navelor de croazieră. După cum se estimează în acest an vor acosta aici 59 de nave de croaziera cu aproape 40.000 de pasageri la bord.

HOP ! – „Facem Europa să pară mai mică!”\r\n\r\n
\r\nTrei companii regionale - Brit Air, Regional şi Airlinair, s-au reorganizat şi regrupat formând compania aeriană HOP! Ea va deveni operaţională în ultima zi a lunii martie. Noua companie va opera 530 de zboruri zilnice către 136 de destinaţii din Franţa şi Europa, cu tarife începand de la 55 de euro per segment. Noua companie aparţine grupului Air France. Zborurile operate de către HOP! se adaptează noii strategii a grupului care în cadrul planului Transform 2015, a restructurat operaţiunile pe rute medii şi scurte, ce înregistrau pierderi, în trei zone complementare. Începand cu această vară, HOP! va efectua zboruri în reţeaua internă din Franţa, de pe aeroporturile Paris Orly, precum şi de pe Charles de Gaulle, în colaborare cu Air France. Cu sloganul „Facem Europa să pară mai mică”, HOP! este conceput ca o soluţie ideală pentru a călători rapid şi simplu pe rute regionale, atât în Franţa, cât şi în Europa. HOP! deţine o flotă formată 98 de aeronave moderne ce oferă între 48 şi 100 de locuri.

\r\nNu mai ştim de când nu am mai auzit fraza asta în prăvalia transportatorului naţional român. Declaraţie exprimă de fapt un target al noului management condus de un expat, al cărui plan a fost aprobat în şedinţa Consiliului de Administraţie din luna martie 2013.
\r\nDacă tot şi-a stabilit ţintele de optimizare şi de trecere la profit în perspectiva anilor 2015, liderii Tarom au pus la punct şi un plan de comunicare, sector la care sunt la fel de deficitari ca şi în cel economic. Dan Pascariu, Preşedintele Consiliului de Administraţie al Tarom se arăta extrem de optimist la ultima conferinţă de presă organizată de staff-ul său: „Tarom îşi va reveni, va creşte şi îşi va atinge ţintele. Există în industria aviatică două presiuni extraordinare – cea a preţului carburantului şi asaltul companiilor low-cost. Îmi este foarte clar că la ora aceasta este mult mai uşor să construieşti o companie nouă, decât să o remodelezi pe cea veche. Noi ne-am propus să adoptăm un model de business mai puţin folosit în industria aviatică!” Pascariu a anunţat că el prevede reducerea treptată a pierderilor, cu o rată anuală preliminată la circa 100 milioane de lei, în acest an şi în 2014, astfel ca în 2015 să se intre pe profit. Mai mult, pentru 2016 există un scenariu ce estimează obţinerea unui profit de circa 173 milioane de lei. Prognoza se sprijină pe două elemente forte: creşterea treptată a numărului de pasageri transportaţi de la 2.300.000 în 2013, la 2.500.000 în 2015, respectiv la 2.600.000 în 2016. Şi în ceea ce priveşte gradul de încărcare, există un desen la fel de optimist: de la 68% în acest an, la 73% în 2015, respectiv 75% în 2016.\r\n\r\n„Am revizuit situaţia companiei într-un mod foarte onest şi suntem convinşi că putem atinge rezultatele pe care ni le-am propus. Fiecare decizie va fi luată în baza unor analize financiare foarte detaliate. Dincolo de obţinerea unui rezultat financiar pozitiv în 2015, pentru noi este importantă sustenabilitatea financiară a companiei pe termen lung” – declara Michael Moriaty, chief Financial Officer al Tarom. Cum se va ajunge la această performanţă? Christian Heinzmann, noul Director General Executiv al Tarom, a arătat că este în derulare optimizarea politicii comerciale a companiei. Pentru a ajunge pe profit în 2015 e nevoie de decizii mai dinamice şi mai proactive. Sună frumos, dar în spatele afirmaţiei se află un proces amplu, urmărit cu atenţie: de la renegocierea treptată a unor contracte de furnizori (unde se vor obţine economii cuprinse între 5 şi 10% pe an, care se cifrează deja la circa 1 milion de dolari pe an), până la reorganizarea birourilor de vânzări din ţară şi străinătate (deja 7 sedii din străinătate au fost închise). Se va introduce o schemă unică a comisioanelor de vânzări care va include şi recompense de performanţă pentru depăşirea nivelului targetat. În ceea ce priveşte restructurarea personalului în funcţie de reorganizarea flotei ca tipuri de aeronave dar şi ca rute, obiectivul pentru viitorii doi ani, în programul de retragere voluntară a personalului, este reducerea angajaţilor cu circa 10%. Alte două tendinţe par să acopere optimismul celor trei manageri. Primul se referă la dezvoltarea companiei pe centre de profit independente – cum ar fi zborurile charter, cargo, centrul de trainic, activitatea tehnică etc, cea de-a doua e şi dură dar şi realistă – o poziţie mult mai activă în procesul deciziţional al SkyTeam şi protejarea într-un mod mai eficient al intereselor comerciale ale companiei Tarom. Poate trecem în sfârşit de faza... Cenuşăreasa cea frumoasă şi săracă.\r\n\r\n„Tarom este o companie valoroasă, care dispune de un potenţial incontestabil de profitabilitate datorită numeroaselor atuuri, printre care renumele brandului şi istoria îndelungată, calitatea de companie aeriană naţională, cota de piaţă semnificativă, personal specializat, profesionist, care manifestă loialitate faţă de brand şi ataşament faţă de companie, siguranţa operaţiunilor şi punctualitatea în operare, resuse financiare semnificative şi lipsa datoriilor restante” – a mai subliniat Christian Heinzmann.\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU

Declaraţie exprimă de fapt un target al noului management condus de un expat, al cărui plan a fost aprobat în şedinţa Consiliului de Administraţie din luna martie 2013.\n\nDacă tot şi-a stabilit ţintele de optimizare şi de trecere la profit în perspectiva anilor 2015, liderii Tarom au pus la punct şi un plan de comunicare, sector la care sunt la fel de deficitari ca şi în cel economic. Dan Pascariu, Preşedintele Consiliului de Administraţie al Tarom se arăta extrem de optimist la ultima conferinţă de presă organizată de staff-ul său: „Tarom îşi va reveni, va creşte şi îşi va atinge ţintele. Există în industria aviatică două presiuni extraordinare – cea a preţului carburantului şi asaltul companiilor low-cost. Îmi este foarte clar că la ora aceasta este mult mai uşor să construieşti o companie nouă, decât să o remodelezi pe cea veche. Noi ne-am propus să adoptăm un model de business mai puţin folosit în industria aviatică!” Pascariu a anunţat că el prevede reducerea treptată a pierderilor, cu o rată anuală preliminată la circa 100 milioane de lei, în acest an şi în 2014, astfel ca în 2015 să se intre pe profit. Mai mult, pentru 2016 există un scenariu ce estimează obţinerea unui profit de circa 173 milioane de lei. Prognoza se sprijină pe două elemente forte: creşterea treptată a numărului de pasageri transportaţi de la 2.300.000 în 2013, la 2.500.000 în 2015, respectiv la 2.600.000 în 2016. Şi în ceea ce priveşte gradul de încărcare, există un desen la fel de optimist: de la 68% în acest an, la 73% în 2015, respectiv 75% în 2016.\n\n„Am revizuit situaţia companiei într-un mod foarte onest şi suntem convinşi că putem atinge rezultatele pe care ni le-am propus. Fiecare decizie va fi luată în baza unor analize financiare foarte detaliate. Dincolo de obţinerea unui rezultat financiar pozitiv în 2015, pentru noi este importantă sustenabilitatea financiară a companiei pe termen lung” – declara Michael Moriaty, chief Financial Officer al Tarom. Cum se va ajunge la această performanţă? Christian Heinzmann, noul Director General Executiv al Tarom, a arătat că este în derulare optimizarea politicii comerciale a companiei. Pentru a ajunge pe profit în 2015 e nevoie de decizii mai dinamice şi mai proactive. Sună frumos, dar în spatele afirmaţiei se află un proces amplu, urmărit cu atenţie: de la renegocierea treptată a unor contracte de furnizori (unde se vor obţine economii cuprinse între 5 şi 10% pe an, care se cifrează deja la circa 1 milion de dolari pe an), până la reorganizarea birourilor de vânzări din ţară şi străinătate (deja 7 sedii din străinătate au fost închise). Se va introduce o schemă unică a comisioanelor de vânzări care va include şi recompense de performanţă pentru depăşirea nivelului targetat. În ceea ce priveşte restructurarea personalului în funcţie de reorganizarea flotei ca tipuri de aeronave dar şi ca rute, obiectivul pentru viitorii doi ani, în programul de retragere voluntară a personalului, este reducerea angajaţilor cu circa 10%. Alte două tendinţe par să acopere optimismul celor trei manageri. Primul se referă la dezvoltarea companiei pe centre de profit independente – cum ar fi zborurile charter, cargo, centrul de trainic, activitatea tehnică etc, cea de-a doua e şi dură dar şi realistă – o poziţie mult mai activă în procesul deciziţional al SkyTeam şi protejarea într-un mod mai eficient al intereselor comerciale ale companiei Tarom. Poate trecem în sfârşit de faza... Cenuşăreasa cea frumoasă şi săracă.\n\n„Tarom este o companie valoroasă, care dispune de un potenţial incontestabil de profitabilitate datorită numeroaselor atuuri, printre care renumele brandului şi istoria îndelungată, calitatea de companie aeriană naţională, cota de piaţă semnificativă, personal specializat, profesionist, care manifestă loialitate faţă de brand şi ataşament faţă de companie, siguranţa operaţiunilor şi punctualitatea în operare, resuse financiare semnificative şi lipsa datoriilor restante” – a mai subliniat Christian Heinzmann.

A plecat dintre noi omul. Dar spiritul profesionistului rămâne prin ceea ce a durat pentru industria de travel din România. Marcel Bădescu a revenit în ţară, din Israel, în 1990. Atunci a şi înfiinţat prima agenţie privată de travel – Nova Turism - împreună cu regretatul Gheorghe Popa. Personalitatea sa este legată de dezvoltarea Asociaţiei Naţionale a Agenţiilor de Turism (ANAT), căruia i-a dedicat cel mai mult timp, pentru a-i construi o coloană vertebrală şi o echipă care a ştiut într-o mare măsură să-i continue munca. A fost preşedintele organizaţiei timp de patru ani iar după aceea şi-a continuat discret munca din poziţia, de membru al Comitetului Director şi de Preşedinte de Onoare. Marcel Bădescu se află în spatele multor realizări, care privite retroactiv se dovedesc importante pentru dezvoltarea ANAT. Înfiinţarea la Bucureşti a Biroului IATA România, ulterior acreditarea IATA a unui număr mare de agenţii de turism din ţara noastră, aderarea ANAT la ECTAA (Federaţia Asociaţiilor Agenţiilor de turism din UE), cu mult înainte ca România să intre în Uniunea Europeană. În umbra sa au crescut tineri profesionişti, unii dintre ei învăţând lecţia echilibrului în relaţiile de afaceri dar şi în domeniul iniţiativei pline de respect faţă de munca asociativă.\r\nREDACŢIA
\r\nSKOL are o divizie de tineret\r\nÎn luna martie SKAL International si-a organizat o filialã de tineret la Bucuresti. Aceasta a început cu 50 de membrii care si-au ales prima structurã de conducere a cãrui presedinte a fost desemnat Andrei Mihãilescu. Grupul este format din membri tineri, ambitiosi si entuziasti pentru crearea unui viitor în industria turisticã, ce urmãresc o continuã dezvoltare personalã si profesionalã prin crearea de noi legãturi si prietenii, dar si prin derularea unor proiecte îndrãznete. Young Skål este o organizatie profesionalã non-profit care se adreseazã tuturor tinerilor cu studii în turism sau care lucreazã în turism, hoteluri, leisure sau transport persoane – ne-a precizat Mãdãlina Nicolescu, PR, Events & Communication Young Skal Bucharest.

\r\nEra si timpul sã-i vinã cuiva o asemenea idee. Britanicii de la site-ul VeryFirstTo, au conceput un pachet turistic despre care sã spune cã va fi cel mai scump din lume. El include vizitarea celor 962 de monumente aflate în patrimoniul UNESCO care sunt detinute de 157 de tãri. Cãlãtoria culturalã în timp urmeazã sã se desfãsoare pe parcursul a 2 ani iar pachetul de servicii este estimat la circa 990.000 de lire engleze.\r\nÎn România vor fi vizitate Delta Dunãrii, mãnãstirile din Moldova, Horezu, bisericile fortificate din Transilvania, cele din lemn din Maramures, cetatea dacicã de la Orastie si cetatea Sighisoarei. Marele circuit include pe mapamond opriri la Taj Mahal sau Machu Picchu, precum si la situri mai putin cunoscute, dar extraordinar de frumoase, precum ferma pictatã din Halsingland din Suedia.Cei care vor cumpãra acest pachet turistic vor putea cãlãtori la clasa business si vor locui în hoteluri de 5 stele printre care se numãrã George V din Paris, The Plaza din New York, Ritz-Carlton din Moscova, Cipriani din Venetia ori Taj Palace din Mumbai.

Sunt 19 ani consecutivi de când Las Vegas este recunoscut ca destinația nr. 1 din Americi dar, probabil si din lume în ceea ce privește ruleta evenimentelor și spectacolelor.\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\n\r\nPentru a vă edifica să vedem ce arată clasamentul TSNN Top 250 Trade Show List. Anul trecut în Las Vegas au avut loc peste 22.000 de asemenea manifestări care au atras peste 4,9 milioane de participanți. Ele au generat un impact economic asupra statului Nevada de 6,7 miliarde de dolari, sprijinind astfel peste 57.000 de locuri de muncă din industria turistică. De la ultimul POW WOW desfășurat la Las Vegas în 2008, fața orașului magic a cunoscut o geriatrie arhitectonică. Investiții noi, de peste 23 de miliarde de dolari, se regăsesc într-un plus de 25.000 de camere de hotel ceea ce face ca în prezent Vegasul să ofere 151.000 de camere de hotel, cu o rată anuală medie de ocupare de circa 80%. Recordul maxim de vizitatori a fost atins în 2011 cu 38,9 milioane.\r\n\r\nRossi Ralenkotter, președinte & CEO al Las Vegas Convention & Visitors Authority (LVCVA), declara: ”Las Vegas este mai vibrant ca oricând și nu încetează să se reinventeze ca o destinație turistică internațională. Suntem într-un mod special entuziasmați în legătură cu potențialul încă nevalorificat în ceea ce privește circulația turistică internațională. Pentru noi POW WOW, va fi scena uriașă care ne conectează cu lumea. Turismul internațional este cheia de creștere a pieței turistice locale și de aceea ne-am propus pentru următoarea decadă o țintă de creștere a turismului internațional cu 30%.”\r\n\r\nÎn mod curent între 15 și 18% din turiștii anuali sunt internaționali, adică circa 6,5 milioane de vizitatori. Ei generează 27% din veniturile anuale obținute din industria turistică. În mod curent, săptămânal pe Aeroportul Internațional Mc Carran sosesc curse din 19 destinații internaționale.\r\n\r\nCum va arăta IPW 2013 ? Evenimentul care se va derula între 8 și 12 iunie are o alură unică. Nu este un târg tradițional, ci unul B2B, ce va reuni în acest an peste 1100 de expozanți, peste 5.000 de delegați, care sunt atât internaționali cît și interni. În paralel cu târgul de business se desfășoară și cel de presă de specialitate - Media Market Place - unde circa 400 de editori de turism din peste 70 de țări schimbă de idei, creează proiecte de promovare, parteneriate de travel, scopul principal fiind descoperirea unor noi expresii, proaspete și flexibile, pentru reflectarea celor mai interesante și inedite atracții din Statele Unite - ne spune Cathy Keefe, directorul de comunicare cu presa al IPW. Rețineți, doar de la această ediție, organizatorii se așteaptă să fie generate afaceri de circa 3,5 miliarde de dolari. Ceea ce exprimă puterea și importanța decisivă a industriei turistice în economia... locală.\r\n\r\n”Cu nesfârșitele sale posibilități de enterteinment, opțiuni culinare și de shopping Las Vegasul este o adevărată Mecca fiind o destinație mai atractivă ca niciodată pentru turiștii internaționali. Vom continua să asigurăm mai multă accesibilitate turiștilor internaționali prin creșterea continuă a numărului de zboruri directe spre Las Vegas din țările cheie, dar și de pe destinații în plină dezvoltare, inclusiv de pe piețele nișă” - a mai adăugat președintele Ralenkotter.\r\n\r\nTraveller Magazin, o revistă apreciată pentru prestațiile sale editoriale în SUA, participă pentru al 15 an consecutiv la IPW, alături de travel agenți români, cei mai vizibili pe piața americană fiind Olimpic International (compania condusă de către George Sorin Nicolescu, are o prezență consolidată de 19 ani consecutivi de participare), World Travel (liderii ei sunt Carmen și Nicolae Demetriade, care au dezvoltat pe piața românească conceptele de croaziere internaționale) și Pan Olimpic. Mai vor veni aici și Top Travel respectiv Karpaten Turism, atrasă pentru prima dată de IPW.\r\n\r\nDar despre noi investiții de la Las Vegas (o parte din ele sunt derulate de către Mandalay Bay, Cezars, MGM Resorts, Monte Carlo, New York, The Venetian ori Encore at Wynn, unde locuiesc membrii delegației românești), despre spectacolele de top internațional - în mod sigur știți că aici este ”casa” Cirque du Soleil -, despre tendințele în businessul de travel, atracțiile naturale ori cele construite, în corespondențele viitoare.\r\n\r\nDOINA, SÎNZIANA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul logistic al OLIMPIC INTERNATIONAL TURISM','LAS VEGAS - Un jeton de 23 miliarde de dolari','','publish','open','open','','las-vegas-un-jeton-de-23-miliarde-de-dolari','','','2013-06-07 12:05:23','2013-06-07 10:05:23','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2137',0,'post','',0),(2123,1,'2013-05-28 13:17:36','2013-05-28 11:17:36','Cluj-Napoca – European Capital of Youth 2015\r\nThe Municipality of Cluj-Napoca was designated the European Capital of Youth in 2015.

Danube Delta appears in a top of the recommendations made by the editors of National Geographic Traveller for the trips this spring. This natural attraction from Romania is included in the first 9 touristic proposals of places where one may spend the holiday.

The last important prize received by the Biosphere Reservation Danube Delta – “Golden Apple” -, was awarded by the International Federation of Tourism Journalists and Editors (FIJET), in 2009, and it is displayed at the Ecotouristic Museum from the town of Tulcea (Tulcea county).

Some 200 delegates from CIS countries and the EU discussed how to promote collective passenger road transport by bus, coach and taxi to ensure sustainable mobility across Eurasia through the safest, greenest and most flexible transport services they offer at the lowest cost to society. Opening the Conference, IRU Secretary General, Martin Marmy, stressed, “The IRU launched the Smart Move campaign in 2009 and it has gained incredible momentum, turning into a major international movement and ultimately becoming a new policy instrument in the EU. If such a successful development was possible, it is exactly what we should expect to achieve together in Eurasia. A similar objective can also be pursued with the IRU initiative “Taxi - Anytime, Anywhere!” to place taxis on top of the political agenda, as the benefits provided by taxis have mostly been forgotten despite their tremendous unused potential to contribute to the improved effectiveness of a high quality public transport chain”.

\r\n\r\nThe management of Sfântu Gheorghe Municipality (Covasna county) announced that it will submit candidature to become an European Cultural Capital in 2021. The mayor Antal Arpad made some investigations and found out that every year one determines the countries that may candidate to become European Cultural Capital, and in 2021 it will be Romania’s and Greece’s turn. He considers that the project conceived has high chances to win because, up to present, the locality coordinated by him is the only candidate town that promotes a cultural and touristic region represented by Szekler Area.

\r\nSfântu Gheorghe wants to be… Cultural Capital\r\n\r\n\r\nThe management of Sfântu Gheorghe Municipality (Covasna county) announced that it will submit candidature to become an European Cultural Capital in 2021. The mayor Antal Arpad made some investigations and found out that every year one determines the countries that may candidate to become European Cultural Capital, and in 2021 it will be Romania’s and Greece’s turn. He considers that the project conceived has high chances to win because, up to present, the locality coordinated by him is the only candidate town that promotes a cultural and touristic region represented by Szekler Area.

The documentation on which such decision relies stipulates that the youth is a serious investment for sustainable and responsible urban development. The name of the program presented is SHARE, a strong, clear, tough, diversified and interesting concept. ”SHARE supports the sharing of space, of culture, of power, of labour, of joy, of joint European vision and values, through topics such as the Bar, mobility, structured dialogue and information for youth. Focusing on the European dimension and collaboration with universities, the civil society and local partners, Cluj-Napoca is able to provide permanent consulting services in the trials related to the problems of youth\", it is stated in the youthforum.org handout. The title of European Capital of Youth was awarded for the first time in 2009 to the town of Rotterdam, followed by Torino, Anvers, Braga, Maribor. Salonic will hold this title in 2014.\n\nAEROTRAVEL brings MSC to Constanţa\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/MSC-SPLENDIDA-Fireworks-at-Christening.jpg\" "\\"MSC")
\n
Until the autumn of this year, no Romanian could embark on a cruise vessel from Constanţa port. It will become however starting with September 27th, an embarking point for MSC Cruises vessels. The company will begin to operate a cruise from Constanţa, on a route including six destinations (except for the leaving point). The first passengers will embark directly from Romania on the board of the vessel MSC Musica. They will leave in an 11-night cruise on the route Constanţa-Gythion-Vene-ţia-Katakolon-Istanbul-Yalta-Odessa-Constanţa. Another 3 courses of MSC Musica will leave this autumn from the port of Constanta, said An-to-nio Niţu, general manager of Aero-travel Lufthansa City Center, partner agency of MSC since 2009, selling the abovementioned offers. Niţu estimates that this cruise will be undertaken, until the end of 2013, by around 400 Romanians. Last year, the company sold 3.000 cruises in Romania but with embarking from ports abroad on MSC vessels, and this year he estimates an increase by 50%.
\nNational Geographic recommends Danube Delta\n\n
Danube Delta appears in a top of the recommendations made by the editors of National Geographic Traveller for the trips this spring. This natural attraction from Romania is included in the first 9 touristic proposals of places where one may spend the holiday. The other destinations are located in New Zeeland, Netherlands, USA, Portugal, Argentina and South Africa.\nSituated in the south-east of Romania, at the confluence of Danube and Black Sea, Danube Delta is included in UNESCO patrimony. The last important prize received by the Biosphere Reservation Danube Delta – “Golden Apple” -, was awarded by the International Federation of Tourism Journalists and Editors (FIJET), in 2009, and it is displayed at the Ecotouristic Museum from the town of Tulcea (Tulcea county).
\n\nFABULOUS: A circuit of 990.000 British pounds
\nThe British from the website VeryFirstTo, conceived a touristic offer which is said to be the most expensive in the world. It includes the visit of the 962 monuments of UNESCO patrimony held by 157 countries. The cultural trip in time is to be organised on a 2-year period and the service offer is estimated to reach 990.000 British pounds. In Romania one will visit Danube Delta, the monasteries from Moldova, Horezu, the fortified churches from Transilvania, the wooden churches from Maramureş, the Dacian borough from Oraştie and the borough of Sighişoarei. The great circuit on the map of the world includes stops at Taj Mahal or Machu Picchu, as well as in less known, but extremely beautiful sites, such as the painted farm from Halsingland Sweden.\nIRU: “Road transport: moving people, driving economies”\nThe International Road Transport Union (IRU), in partnership with IRU Associate Member, Rosgosstrakh, the CIS Coordinating Transport Conference and the National Taxi Council, today organised the 9th IRU International Road Transport Conference on the theme “Road transport: moving people, driving economies”. Some 200 delegates from CIS countries and the EU discussed how to promote collective passenger road transport by bus, coach and taxi to ensure sustainable mobility across Eurasia through the safest, greenest and most flexible transport services they offer at the lowest cost to society. Opening the Conference, IRU Secretary General, Martin Marmy, stressed, “The IRU launched the Smart Move campaign in 2009 and it has gained incredible momentum, turning into a major international movement and ultimately becoming a new policy instrument in the EU. If such a successful development was possible, it is exactly what we should expect to achieve together in Eurasia. A similar objective can also be pursued with the IRU initiative “Taxi - Anytime, Anywhere!” to place taxis on top of the political agenda, as the benefits provided by taxis have mostly been forgotten despite their tremendous unused potential to contribute to the improved effectiveness of a high quality public transport chain”.\n\nSfântu Gheorghe wants to be… Cultural Capital\n\n

Sunt 19 ani consecutivi de când Las Vegas este recunoscut ca destinația nr. 1 din Americi dar, probabil si din lume în ceea ce privește ruleta evenimentelor și spectacolelor.\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\n\nPentru a vă edifica să vedem ce arată clasamentul TSNN Top 250 Trade Show List. Anul trecut în Las Vegas au avut loc peste 22.000 de asemenea manifestări care au atras peste 4,9 milioane de participanți. Ele au generat un impact economic asupra statului Nevada de 6,7 miliarde de dolari, sprijinind astfel peste 57.000 de locuri de muncă din industria turistică. De la ultimul POW WOW desfășurat la Las Vegas în 2008, fața orașului magic a cunoscut o geriatrie arhitectonică. Investiții noi, de peste 23 de miliarde de dolari, se regăsesc într-un plus de 25.000 de camere de hotel ceea ce face ca în prezent Vegasul să ofere 151.000 de camere de hotel, cu o rată anuală medie de ocupare de circa 80%. Recordul maxim de vizitatori a fost atins în 2011 cu 38,9 milioane.\n\nRossi Ralenkotter, președinte & CEO al Las Vegas Convention & Visitors Authority (LVCVA), declara: ”Las Vegas este mai vibrant ca oricând și nu încetează să se reinventeze ca o destinație turistică internațională. Suntem într-un mod special entuziasmați în legătură cu potențialul încă nevalorificat în ceea ce privește circulația turistică internațională. Pentru noi POW WOW, va fi scena uriașă care ne conectează cu lumea. Turismul internațional este cheia de creștere a pieței turistice locale și de aceea ne-am propus pentru următoarea decadă o țintă de creștere a turismului internațional cu 30%.”\n\nÎn mod curent între 15 și 18% din turiștii anuali sunt internaționali, adică circa 6,5 milioane de vizitatori. Ei generează 27% din veniturile anuale obținute din industria turistică. În mod curent, săptămânal pe Aeroportul Internațional Mc Carran sosesc curse din 19 destinații internaționale.\n\nCum va arăta IPW 2013 ? Evenimentul care se va derula între 8 și 12 iunie are o alură unică. Nu este un târg tradițional, ci unul B2B, ce va reuni în acest an peste 1100 de expozanți, peste 5.000 de delegați, care sunt atât internaționali cît și interni. În paralel cu târgul de business se desfășoară și cel de presă de specialitate - Media Market Place - unde circa 400 de editori de turism din peste 70 de țări schimbă de idei, creează proiecte de promovare, parteneriate de travel, scopul principal fiind descoperirea unor noi expresii, proaspete și flexibile, pentru reflectarea celor mai interesante și inedite atracții din Statele Unite - ne spune Cathy Keefe, directorul de comunicare cu presa al IPW. Rețineți, doar de la această ediție, organizatorii se așteaptă să fie generate afaceri de circa 3,5 miliarde de dolari. Ceea ce exprimă puterea și importanța decisivă a industriei turistice în economia... locală.\n\n”Cu nesfârșitele sale posibilități de enterteinment, opțiuni culinare și de shopping Las Vegasul este o adevărată Mecca fiind o destinație mai atractivă ca niciodată pentru turiștii internaționali. Vom continua să asigurăm mai multă accesibilitate turiștilor internaționali prin creșterea continuă a numărului de zboruri directe spre Las Vegas din țările cheie, dar și de pe destinații în plină dezvoltare, inclusiv de pe piețele nișă” - a mai adăugat președintele Ralenkotter.\n\nTraveller Magazin, o revistă apreciată pentru prestațiile sale editoriale în SUA, participă pentru al 15 an consecutiv la IPW, alături de travel agenți români, cei mai vizibili pe piața americană fiind Olimpic International (compania condusă de către George Sorin Nicolescu, are o prezență consolidată de 19 ani consecutivi de participare), World Travel (liderii ei sunt Carmen și Nicolae Demetriade, care au dezvoltat pe piața românească conceptele de croaziere internaționale) și Pan Olimpic. Mai vor veni aici și Top Travel respectiv Karpaten Turism, atrasă pentru prima dată de IPW.\n\nDar despre noi investiții de la Las Vegas (o parte din ele sunt derulate de către Mandalay Bay, Cezars, MGM Resorts, Monte Carlo, New York, The Venetian ori Encore at Wynn, unde locuiesc membrii delegației românești), despre spectacolele de top internațional - în mod sigur știți că aici este ”casa” Cirque du Soleil -, despre tendințele în businessul de travel, atracțiile naturale ori cele construite, în corespondențele viitoare.\n\nDOINA, SÎNZIANA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul logistic al OLIMPIC INTERNATIONAL TURISM','LAS VEGAS - Un jeton de 23 miliarde de dolari','','inherit','open','open','','2137-revision','','','2013-06-07 12:03:38','2013-06-07 10:03:38','',2137,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2013/06/07/2137-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2149,1,'2013-07-08 13:38:42','2013-07-08 11:38:42','A 5-star PRIME MINISTER

\r\nINTRARE ÎN PIAȚĂ
\r\nUn Premier de 5 stele\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Hotel-Premier-Palace-0042.jpg\" "\\"Hotel")
Anunțat de mai multe ori în ultimii doi ani, evenimentul s-a consumat în sfârșit. În vecinătatea stadionului Steaua din Ghencea a fost inaugurat încă un hotel de 5 stele. Deși specialiștii în industria de profil sunt de părere că piața de 5 stele este aproape saturată în București, Premier Palace Hotel&Spa, parte a grupului Premier Palace, își propune să se poziționeze pe un segment de servicii combinate. Proprietarul Marian Dumitru a afirmat că investiția, ce se ridică la circa 10 milioane de euro, ofertează pe piață 82 de camere. Dar punctul forte al acesteia este „Premier Spa, primul concept de Health Spa din București, ce se întinde pe o suprafață de 3.000 de metri pătrați. Complexul dispune de 20 de cabinete de tratament dedicate special nevoilor și dorințelor de întreținere și mențiere în formă a clienților noștri indiferent de vârsta lor.” Aici sunt oferite tratamente medicale de recuperare, relaxare și întreținere, tratamente holistice, pentru eliberarea de stresul cotidian, reechilibrarea balansului energetic etc. Ele se sprijină pe cele cinci 5 lumi ale “Starii de Bine” - apă, căldură, frumusețe, mișcare și relaxare.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Hotel-Premier-Palace0373.jpg\" "\\"Hotel")
\r\nHotelul mai deține un local cu circa 220 de locuri (”Restaurantul Premier Palace are un design ultra-elegant, cu vitralii și coloane placate cu onix) și o sală de conferințe cu o capacitate de 170 de persoane. Dotările tehnice sunt de ultima generație. Pentru întâlniri de afaceri ori evenimente personalizate complexul oferă două spații cochete și intime: Piano Bar sau Sky wine bar&lounge.\r\nCompania Premier Palace este deținută de Tekpacific, înregistrată în Cipru, unde Dumitru are calitatea de administrator cu drepturi depline. Marian Dumitru este și administrator al Rohas Promotion Group Limited, înregistrată în Noua Zeelandă, care controlează în întregime compania de construcții Dioma International Exim.
INTERNAȚIONAL se face lanț
\r\nGrupul International Hotels, a inaugurat oficial hotelul International București (fostul Hotel Tiny). Situat în apropierea Pieței Unirii el a fost clasificat la 4 stele. Investitorul vine pe piață cu 70 de camere, 4 săli de conferinţe, un restaurant cu specific tirolez (primul cu acest specific din Bucureşti) şi un coffee lounge.\r\nDupă cum a declarat Marius Vânătoru, Marketing & Sales Director al grupului, această nouă investiție se înscrie în strategia de dezvoltare ce prevede crearea unui lanț hotelier național. Ea a fost anunțată chiar la inaugurarea primului hotel, la finele anului trecut, INTERNATIONAL Sinaia. Atunci a fost redeschis hotelul ce a cunoscut o amplă geriatrie investițională. Hotelul Internațional din această stațiune turistică, a fost construit în urmă cu 30 de ani. Pentru a fi adus la un nivel de clasificare de 4 stele a fost investită suma de 6 milioane de euro. El a adus pe piața locală 180 de camere, 11 săli de conferințe dar și 3 restaurante - Tirol (singurul cu specific tirolez de pe Valea Prahovei), Cucina Sofia (cu specific italian), respectiv Panoramic (cu specific internațional și tradițional). ”Am convingerea că Internațional Sinaia a fost și va fi și în continuare cel mai popular, apreciat și modern hotel de pe Valea Prahovei. Datorită numărului mare de săli de conferință și a facilităților oferite, hotelul din Sinaia reprezintă prima alegere a companiilor care doresc să-și organizeze evenimente corporate. Standardul ridicat și atenția pentru detalii sunt noutățile pe care le aducem în piața hotelieră românească. Aș putea spune că suntem acum cel mai dinamic grup hotelier din România datorită unei extinderi extrem de rapide prin deschiderea a nu mai puțin de trei unități hoteliere în mai bine de jumătate de an” - a subliniat directorul Vânătoru.\r\nCea de-a treia investiție este concentrată la Iași. Este vorba de o clădire nouă, în care va activa un hotel cu 170 de camere. International Hotel Group mai deține în portofoliu vilele Bistrița, Stejarul, Frasin respectiv, motelul și campingul Izvorul Rece.
\r\nDISTINCŢII INTERNAȚIONALE
\r\nServiciile de la Ramada Plaza sunt de… bronz
\r\nHotelul Ramada Plaza din Bucureşti a fost premiat cu medalie de bronz “pentru calitatea remarcabilă a serviciilor prestate” de către Wyndham Hotel Group, brand din care face parte. Certificatul de excelenţă a fost acordat în cadrul Galei de premiere a grupului, găzduită de capitala Marii Britanii. Distincţia plasează Ramada Plaza Bucharest în Top 3 al celor mai bune hoteluri din portofoliul Wyndham Hotel Group. Lanţul internaţional deţine în întreaga lume circa 7.260 de hoteluri.
\r\nHard Rock Cafe a intrat în “Hall of Fame”
\r\nConducerea Hard Rock Cafe din Bucureşti a anunţat că locaţia a fost premiată cu distincţia “Top Of The Rock”, premiu acordat de reţeaua Hard Rock International pentru cele mai bune rezultate financiare, implicare socială şi performanţe în vânzări, obţinute de restaurantele Hard Rock Cafe din întreaga lume. Restaurantul din Bucureşti a devenit astfel membru al „Performance Hall of Fame”, o listă exclusivistă a câştigătorilor Top Of The Rock. Premiul constă într-o chitară Fender unicat, pictată manual, ce completează colecţia prezentată în restaurantul din Parcul Herastrău.\r\nLa data inaugurării, sfârşitul deceniului trecut, Hard Rock Cafee a fost unul dintre cele mai moderne şi mari din lume, dar şi cel mai mare din Europa. Cu o suprafaţă de 2.000 de metri pătraţi, localul deţine 220 de locuri la mese, la care se adaugă încă 230 aflate pe terasa deschisă în timpul verii. Investiţia totală s-a ridicat la circa 4,5 milioane de euro. Aici pot fi admirate obiecte aparţinând unor staruri precum Shakira, Bon Jovi, Elton John, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, formaţiile Beatles, The Doors etc. Alte repere notabile au fost asigurate de donaţiile făcute de Prince, Madonna ori Michael Jackson (ce a oferit celebra jachetă de piele roşie purtată în timpul filmărilor la producţia “Triller”).
\r\nNOI STRATEGII
\r\nOLIVIERA - food, mobile, comod\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Oliviera1.jpg\" "\\"Oliviera1\\"")
Oliviera a lansat prima platformă mobile de food delivery din România, o aplicaţie care revoluţionează livrarea la domiciliu. Jerry\'s Pizza, Wu Xing, Pizzicato, El Torito, Karishma şi edulce.ro sunt doar o parte din restaurantele și lanțurile de livrare de mâncare de renume din Bucureşti care și-au reunit ofertele în cadrul aplicaţiei.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Oliviera2.jpg\" "\\"Oliviera2\\"")
\r\nDescărcarea este gratuită iar aplicaţia poate fi instalată, simplu şi rapid, atât pe telefoanele şi tabletele cu iOS cât şi pe cele care rulează pe Android. Dintr-un singur cont puteţi lansa comenzi pentru orice restaurant partener, iar adresele de livrare sunt memorate şi nu trebuie introduse de fiecare dată. În plus, utilizatorii au ocazia de a repeta orice comandă anterioară prin simpla vizualizare a istoricului. Meniurile preferate pot fi introduse la categoria Favorite care permite comanda rapidă printr-un singur click. \"În urmă cu un an am lansat prima aplicaţie de comenzi pe telefon pentru un restaurant din Bucureşti. Primul contact dintre zona de mobile şi piaţa de food delivery a fost unul pozitiv şi cu potenţial. Au urmat alte aplicaţii. Oliviera este dezvoltată pentru piaţa autohtonă, de către o companie cu istoric şi tradiţie în produse inovatoare și răspunde specificului utilizatorului român\" - ne-a declarat Florin Ionescu, coordonator Oliviera şi Business Development Manager Ascend NetSolutions.
VEGA e VERDE
\r\nHotelul Vega din stațiunea Mamaia a devenit primul complex consumator de Energie Verde din țara noastră, produs al companiei Enel Energie Romania. Vega a implementat în premieră „Eco-Hotel Management System”, concept de management auditat anual de către TUV-Rheinland Romania, subsidiară al celei mai mari organizații de certificare din Germania. Misiunea asumată este de a oferi turiștilor veniți în vacanțe la malul Mării Negre standardele de calitate și siguranță apărute în interacțiunea dintre om, tehnologie și mediu, dar și de a proteja resursele naturale.

Poate v-a atras numele. Dar nu știți ce este și unde se află amplasată. Pensiunea Carul din Stele nu are numai o denumire pitorească ci și o ofertă pe măsură. Este amplasată în localitatea Beharca (județul Dolj) și a trecut de-a lungul anilor prin mai multe etape de investiții pentru a ajunge la 4 margarete.

\nUnele investesc bani și multă muncă. Altele își schimbă numele și se repoziționează. Cele de lanț vânează distincții internaționale. Și o fac cu pricepere și devotament. Din tot acest spectacol al industriei turistice cîștigătorul cel mare este... clientul.\n
\nINTRARE ÎN PIAȚĂ
\nUn Premier de 5 stele\n
Anunțat de mai multe ori în ultimii doi ani, evenimentul s-a consumat în sfârșit. În vecinătatea stadionului Steaua din Ghencea a fost inaugurat încă un hotel de 5 stele. Deși specialiștii în industria de profil sunt de părere că piața de 5 stele este aproape saturată în București, Premier Palace Hotel&Spa, parte a grupului Premier Palace, își propune să se poziționeze pe un segment de servicii combinate. Proprietarul Marian Dumitru a afirmat că investiția, ce se ridică la circa 10 milioane de euro, ofertează pe piață 82 de camere. Dar punctul forte al acesteia este „Premier Spa, primul concept de Health Spa din București, ce se întinde pe o suprafață de 3.000 de metri pătrați. Complexul dispune de 20 de cabinete de tratament dedicate special nevoilor și dorințelor de întreținere și mențiere în formă a clienților noștri indiferent de vârsta lor.” Aici sunt oferite tratamente medicale de recuperare, relaxare și întreținere, tratamente holistice, pentru eliberarea de stresul cotidian, reechilibrarea balansului energetic etc. Ele se sprijină pe cele cinci 5 lumi ale “Starii de Bine” - apă, căldură, frumusețe, mișcare și relaxare.\n\nHotelul mai deține un local cu circa 220 de locuri (”Restaurantul Premier Palace are un design ultra-elegant, cu vitralii și coloane placate cu onix) și o sală de conferințe cu o capacitate de 170 de persoane. Dotările tehnice sunt de ultima generație. Pentru întâlniri de afaceri ori evenimente personalizate complexul oferă două spații cochete și intime: Piano Bar sau Sky wine bar&lounge.\nCompania Premier Palace este deținută de Tekpacific, înregistrată în Cipru, unde Dumitru are calitatea de administrator cu drepturi depline. Marian Dumitru este și administrator al Rohas Promotion Group Limited, înregistrată în Noua Zeelandă, care controlează în întregime compania de construcții Dioma International Exim.
INTERNAȚIONAL se face lanț
\nGrupul International Hotels, a inaugurat oficial hotelul International București (fostul Hotel Tiny). Situat în apropierea Pieței Unirii el a fost clasificat la 4 stele. Investitorul vine pe piață cu 70 de camere, 4 săli de conferinţe, un restaurant cu specific tirolez (primul cu acest specific din Bucureşti) şi un coffee lounge.\nDupă cum a declarat Marius Vânătoru, Marketing & Sales Director al grupului, această nouă investiție se înscrie în strategia de dezvoltare ce prevede crearea unui lanț hotelier național. Ea a fost anunțată chiar la inaugurarea primului hotel, la finele anului trecut, INTERNATIONAL Sinaia. Atunci a fost redeschis hotelul ce a cunoscut o amplă geriatrie investițională. Hotelul Internațional din această stațiune turistică, a fost construit în urmă cu 30 de ani. Pentru a fi adus la un nivel de clasificare de 4 stele a fost investită suma de 6 milioane de euro. El a adus pe piața locală 180 de camere, 11 săli de conferințe dar și 3 restaurante - Tirol (singurul cu specific tirolez de pe Valea Prahovei), Cucina Sofia (cu specific italian), respectiv Panoramic (cu specific internațional și tradițional). ”Am convingerea că Internațional Sinaia a fost și va fi și în continuare cel mai popular, apreciat și modern hotel de pe Valea Prahovei. Datorită numărului mare de săli de conferință și a facilităților oferite, hotelul din Sinaia reprezintă prima alegere a companiilor care doresc să-și organizeze evenimente corporate. Standardul ridicat și atenția pentru detalii sunt noutățile pe care le aducem în piața hotelieră românească. Aș putea spune că suntem acum cel mai dinamic grup hotelier din România datorită unei extinderi extrem de rapide prin deschiderea a nu mai puțin de trei unități hoteliere în mai bine de jumătate de an” - a subliniat directorul Vânătoru.\nCea de-a treia investiție este concentrată la Iași. Este vorba de o clădire nouă, în care va activa un hotel cu 170 de camere. International Hotel Group mai deține în portofoliu vilele Bistrița, Stejarul, Frasin respectiv, motelul și campingul Izvorul Rece.
\nDISTINCŢII INTERNAȚIONALE
\nServiciile de la Ramada Plaza sunt de… bronz
\nHotelul Ramada Plaza din Bucureşti a fost premiat cu medalie de bronz “pentru calitatea remarcabilă a serviciilor prestate” de către Wyndham Hotel Group, brand din care face parte. Certificatul de excelenţă a fost acordat în cadrul Galei de premiere a grupului, găzduită de capitala Marii Britanii. Distincţia plasează Ramada Plaza Bucharest în Top 3 al celor mai bune hoteluri din portofoliul Wyndham Hotel Group. Lanţul internaţional deţine în întreaga lume circa 7.260 de hoteluri.
\nHard Rock Cafe a intrat în “Hall of Fame”
\nConducerea Hard Rock Cafe din Bucureşti a anunţat că locaţia a fost premiată cu distincţia “Top Of The Rock”, premiu acordat de reţeaua Hard Rock International pentru cele mai bune rezultate financiare, implicare socială şi performanţe în vânzări, obţinute de restaurantele Hard Rock Cafe din întreaga lume. Restaurantul din Bucureşti a devenit astfel membru al „Performance Hall of Fame”, o listă exclusivistă a câştigătorilor Top Of The Rock. Premiul constă într-o chitară Fender unicat, pictată manual, ce completează colecţia prezentată în restaurantul din Parcul Herastrău.\nLa data inaugurării, sfârşitul deceniului trecut, Hard Rock Cafee a fost unul dintre cele mai moderne şi mari din lume, dar şi cel mai mare din Europa. Cu o suprafaţă de 2.000 de metri pătraţi, localul deţine 220 de locuri la mese, la care se adaugă încă 230 aflate pe terasa deschisă în timpul verii. Investiţia totală s-a ridicat la circa 4,5 milioane de euro. Aici pot fi admirate obiecte aparţinând unor staruri precum Shakira, Bon Jovi, Elton John, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, formaţiile Beatles, The Doors etc. Alte repere notabile au fost asigurate de donaţiile făcute de Prince, Madonna ori Michael Jackson (ce a oferit celebra jachetă de piele roşie purtată în timpul filmărilor la producţia “Triller”).
\nNOI STRATEGII
\nOLIVIERA - food, mobile, comod\n
Oliviera a lansat prima platformă mobile de food delivery din România, o aplicaţie care revoluţionează livrarea la domiciliu. Jerry\'s Pizza, Wu Xing, Pizzicato, El Torito, Karishma şi edulce.ro sunt doar o parte din restaurantele și lanțurile de livrare de mâncare de renume din Bucureşti care și-au reunit ofertele în cadrul aplicaţiei.\n\nDescărcarea este gratuită iar aplicaţia poate fi instalată, simplu şi rapid, atât pe telefoanele şi tabletele cu iOS cât şi pe cele care rulează pe Android. Dintr-un singur cont puteţi lansa comenzi pentru orice restaurant partener, iar adresele de livrare sunt memorate şi nu trebuie introduse de fiecare dată. În plus, utilizatorii au ocazia de a repeta orice comandă anterioară prin simpla vizualizare a istoricului. Meniurile preferate pot fi introduse la categoria Favorite care permite comanda rapidă printr-un singur click. \"În urmă cu un an am lansat prima aplicaţie de comenzi pe telefon pentru un restaurant din Bucureşti. Primul contact dintre zona de mobile şi piaţa de food delivery a fost unul pozitiv şi cu potenţial. Au urmat alte aplicaţii. Oliviera este dezvoltată pentru piaţa autohtonă, de către o companie cu istoric şi tradiţie în produse inovatoare și răspunde specificului utilizatorului român\" - ne-a declarat Florin Ionescu, coordonator Oliviera şi Business Development Manager Ascend NetSolutions.
VEGA e VERDE
\nHotelul Vega din stațiunea Mamaia a devenit primul complex consumator de Energie Verde din țara noastră, produs al companiei Enel Energie Romania. Vega a implementat în premieră „Eco-Hotel Management System”, concept de management auditat anual de către TUV-Rheinland Romania, subsidiară al celei mai mari organizații de certificare din Germania. Misiunea asumată este de a oferi turiștilor veniți în vacanțe la malul Mării Negre standardele de calitate și siguranță apărute în interacțiunea dintre om, tehnologie și mediu, dar și de a proteja resursele naturale.
\nUn Car coborât din... Stele\n
Poate v-a atras numele. Dar nu știți ce este și unde se află amplasată. Pensiunea Carul din Stele nu are numai o denumire pitorească ci și o ofertă pe măsură. Este amplasată în localitatea Beharca (județul Dolj) și a trecut de-a lungul anilor prin mai multe etape de investiții pentru a ajunge la 4 margarete. Despre câteva dintre atuurile acestei locații ne-a vorbit Maria Anca Pocomnicu, de la departamentul de vânzări al proprietății. ”În primul rând trebuie să subliniez că de la început ne-am orientat activitatea în jurul conceptului ”Trăiește românește!”.\n\nPe partea de cazare se remarcă grija pentru detaliu și confort exprimată de investitori. Camerele prezintă toate facilitățile moderne de la TV, internet wireless, minibar, climatizare, seif în cameră, parcare privată, saună, fitness etc. La ”Carul din Stele” vă puteți delecta cu mâncăruri tradiționale din părțile Olteniei, dar gătite și după rețete adunate din întreaga țară.\n\nVechea artă de a face un grătar la foc viu și nu pe jar e la mare preț la noi, căci proțapul e gata pregătit pentru a-și întâmpina mușterii. Pensiunea-Restaurant reprezintă un loc ideal pentru petrecerea unui sfârșit de săptămână memorabil, pentru mini-vacanțe dar și pentru evenimente de familie ori de companie.”\n\nDe ce unde se trage numele ”Carul din Stele”? Ei bine, asta-i o poveste ce merită să o aflați la fața locului.

Care-i locul nostru în aceast tablou?
\r\nUn important indicator economic este competitivitatea sectorului de turism şi călătorii la nivel global. România a regresat la acest capitol potrivit unui raport realizat de Forumul Economic Mondial. În perioada 2011-2013, ţara noastră a coborat 5 locuri de pe poziţia 63 pe 68 în topul care include 140 de ţări. Ea se află în urma multor ţări din Europa Centrală şi de Est, printre care Ungaria, Polonia ori Bulgaria. Printre cauzele nominalizate se numără: atitudinea românilor faţă de turişti, calitatea mediului natural, marketingul ineficient, calitatea deficitară a transporturilor şi serviciilor de poliţie. O mare parte din datele prelucrate în studiu au fost obţinute pe baza unor sondaje efectuate în fiecare ţară. Pe secţiuni de evaluare ne aflăm pe locul 122 la capitolul atitudine faţă de turiştii străini; pe locul 107, în ce priveşte calitatea mediului natural; pe 138, la capitolul calitatea drumurilor; pe 123 în privinţa eficienţei marketingului şi brandingului pentru atragerea turiştilor, iar în ceea ce priveşte încrederea populaţiei în Poliţie, aplicarea legii şi menţinerii ordinii, ne-am situat pe locul 107. Prima poziţie a clasa¬men¬tului privind competitivitatea în turism a fost ocupată de Elveţia. Ea e secondată de Germania, Austria, Spania, Marea Britanie, SUA, Franţa, Canada, Suedia şi Singapore.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Romania-Brasov-274.jpg\" "\\"Romania")

România a regresat la acest capitol potrivit unui raport realizat de Forumul Economic Mondial. În perioada 2011-2013, ţara noastră a coborat 5 locuri de pe poziţia 63 pe 68 în topul care include 140 de ţări. Ea se află în urma multor ţări din Europa Centrală şi de Est, printre care Ungaria, Polonia ori Bulgaria. Printre cauzele nominalizate se numără: atitudinea românilor faţă de turişti, calitatea mediului natural, marketingul ineficient, calitatea deficitară a transporturilor şi serviciilor de poliţie. O mare parte din datele prelucrate în studiu au fost obţinute pe baza unor sondaje efectuate în fiecare ţară. Pe secţiuni de evaluare ne aflăm pe locul 122 la capitolul atitudine faţă de turiştii străini; pe locul 107, în ce priveşte calitatea mediului natural; pe 138, la capitolul calitatea drumurilor; pe 123 în privinţa eficienţei marketingului şi brandingului pentru atragerea turiştilor, iar în ceea ce priveşte încrederea populaţiei în Poliţie, aplicarea legii şi menţinerii ordinii, ne-am situat pe locul 107. Prima poziţie a clasa¬men¬tului privind competitivitatea în turism a fost ocupată de Elveţia. Ea e secondată de Germania, Austria, Spania, Marea Britanie, SUA, Franţa, Canada, Suedia şi Singapore.\n
Cum stăm la.... înnoptări ?
\nPe parcursul anului 2012, sosirile înregistrate în structurile de primire au însumat 7653,4 de mii, în creştere cu 9,3% faţă de 2011. Şi românii au apelat într-un număr mai mare la structurile de cazare turistică. Ei au reprezentat 78,4% din numărul total de sosiri, în timp ce străinii au acoperit 21,6% din total. Sosirile în hoteluri deţin în 2012 o pondere de 75,5% din totalul sosirilor în structurile de primire turistică cu funcţiuni de cazare, în creştere cu 7,7% faţă de anul precedent.\n\nÎnnoptările înregistrate în structurile de primire turistică în 2012 au însumat 19091,4 de mii, în creştere cu 6,6% comparativ cu cele din anul anterior. Dintre acestea 82,8% au fost români şi 17,2% au fost turişti străini. Indicele de utilizare netă a capacităţilor de cazare în 2012 a fost de 25,9% per total structuri de cazare turistică, ceea ce consemnează o scădere cu 0,5% faţă de 2011. Indici mai mari de utilizare a locurilor de cazare în anul 2012 s-au înregistrat la hoteluri - 32,1% şi la vile turistice - 19,6%.\n
Cine ne vizitează ?
\nSosirile vizitatorilor străini în România, înregistrate la punctele de frontieră, au fost în anul 2012 de 7936,7 de mii, în creştere cu 4,3% faţă de anul 2011. Majoritatea vizitatorilor străini provin din ţări europene, respectiv 94,2%, iar din statele Uniunii Europene s-au înregistrat 58,9% din totalul sosirilor vizitatorilor străini. Dintre statele UE cele mai multe sosiri s-au înregistrat din Ungaria - 33,1%, Bulgaria - 20,2%, Germania - 9,4%, Italia - 7,3% şi Polonia - 6,4%.\n
Cu ce călătoresc românii ?
\nPlecările vizitatorilor români în străinătate, înregistrate la punctele de frontieră, au fost în 2012 de 11,148 de mii, în creştere cu 1,9%, comparativ cu anul 2011. Cele mai utilizate mijloace de călătorie în alte ţări au fost: transportul rutier ce a reprezentat 75,9% din numărul total de plecări. Comparativ cu 2011, cele mai mari creşteri în anul 2012 s-au înregistrat la transportul naval (12,9 %) şi la cel rutier (6,9%).\n

\r\nCu cât tehnologia evoluează cu atât este mai dificil să comunici cu presa, în cazul nostru cu media de travel. Limbajul era cândva destul de accesibil și prietenos. El s-a comprimat în ultimii ani, iar cei care-l reinventează prin jocuri de cuvinte și cifre omit deseori să cupleze conținutul la motorul comunicării care să ajungă ușor până la consumatori.\r\nLa acest aspect s-au gândit, cu siguranță, specialiștii de la Travelport, unul dintre cele mai performante sistemele globale de rezervări, pe scurt GDS. Drept urmare ei au organizat la Londra prima ediție a ”Europe Media Event 2013”, menită să ne familiarizeze cu noile produse și proiecte lansate chiar în cartierul general al companiei. A fost o invitație în ”cutia neagră” a Travelport, unde am ”procesat” pentru cititorii noștri informații despre tehnologiile viitorului.\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\nGazdele ne-au transmis încă de la început un mesaj de genul - competiția în tehnologie ca și în sport nu se oprește niciodată. De ce am amintit de sport? 15 jurnaliști de travel, am fost invitați nu numai să ne... retehnologizăm ci și să fim martorii unei noi ediții a Regatei Regale de pe Tamisa. Competiția are vechi tradiții aici. Orașul Henley datează din secolul a 12-lea. Prima competiție nautică datează din 1829, când aici s-au întrecut echipele universităților Oxford și Cambridge. Peste 10 ani localitatea Henley organiza prima sa Regată Regală. În 1851 prințul Albert devenea primul patron al Regatei. Prima cursă a durat...3 ore. Azi evenimentul, transformat în Festival prilejuiește nu numai întreceri sportive ci și întâlniri mondene, de socializare. Ținuta e obligatorie și are un pregnant aspect vintage. Fiecare participant vine îmbrăcat în la costum, cravată ori papion. Doamnele se dau în vânt să-și etaleze pălăriile, multe dintre ele create special pentru eveniment. Nouă ne-a făcut plăcere să-l cunoaștem pe maestrul de ceremonii al Regatei dar și pe tinerii Dan Howie și Will North, ce alcătuiesc o echipă de succes în materie de proiecte nautice. Pentru acest an cei doi sportivi pregătesc o croazieră între Insulele Canare și Antigua. Deplasarea se va efectua cu o ambarcațiune modernă, pusă în mișcare, firește, de două perechi de...vâsle. Regata Regală, ar mai fi de spus, se desfășoară de aproape 185 de ani fix, în fiecare a 27 săptămână a anului. Obiceiuri englezești.\r\n\r\n
Să revenim la chestiunile grele. Ce informații am găsit în ”cutia neagră” a Travelport? Compania operează în 170 de țări. Este susținută de 3.500 de angajați, care generează o cifră de afaceri anuală de peste 2 miliarde de dolari. De unde provin acești bani? Din vânzările și rezervările efectuate - la peste 400 de companii aeriene (unde s-au cumpărat pentru călătorii circa 6 miliarde de segmente de zbor), la cele peste 91.000 de proprietăți, o mare parte dintre ele fiind grupate în jurul a 300 de lanțuri hoteliere. Anual Travelport vinde circa 27 de milioane de nopți de cazare, circa 17 milioane de închirieri, la circa 25 de companii de rent a car, și circa 2 milioane de tichete de călătorie în contul a 12 companii și rețele feroviare. Produsele Travelport sunt valorificate pe întreg mapamondul de circa 67.000 de agenții de turism clasice, dar viitorul aduce din ce în ce mai insistent în prim plan, agențiile on-line.\r\n\r\n”Europe Media Event 2013” se află la prima ediție - ne spune Kate Aldridge, Senior Director, Corporate Communications la Travelport. Un alt actor al organizării acestei reuniuni este Matt Hennessey, Comunication Manager pentru Europa de Est. El a adăugat că se dorește permanentizarea unui asemenea eveniment, care va prilejui transmiterea către parteneri dar și consumatori a unor mesaje cât mai accesibile și, bineînțeles, profitabile. Cum se va reuși acest lucru ne-au arătat o parte din liderii Travelport. Bryan Conway este de părere că sistemele globale de rezervări - GDS-urile - se află în fața unor provocări generate de noile reformulări economice din industria turistică. În domeniul aerian asistăm la concentrarea produselor ca urmare a noilor achiziții, alianțe ori parteneriate. Efectul? Produsele oferite sunt deja aranjamente complexe de călătorie. Bryan a mai arătat că numai business-ul hotelier așteaptă să atingă, peste patru ani, circa 490 de milioane de dolari, ceea ce se exprimă printr-o creștere anuală de 27%. Dar la un asemenea ”cașcaval financiar” vor apărea la masă și concurenții GDS-urilor. Google, Facebook, Concur sunt doar o parte din cei care își vor adjudeca o felie din această afacere globală.\r\n\r\nJason Hancock și Bryan Staunton ne-au prezentat sistemul eNett, în timp ce Fergall Kelly, Ian Heywood și Oscar Castano ne-au vorbit despre Travelport Merchandising Platform. Jason Nash și Tracey Hempstock au tratat aspecte ale noilor tehnologii de accelerare a rezervărilor și vânzărilor, Niklas Andreen și Richard Veitch au prezentat tendințele apărute în rezervările hoteliere și produsul Travelport Rooms and More, care concentrează peste 1 milion de oferte de cazare. Phil Donathy și Pieter van der Voort ne-au descris mutațiile apărute pe platformele de vânzări.\r\n\r\nMarcin Pilarski, vice-president & Managing Director pentru Europa de Est ne-a prezentat un tablou optimist. Această zonă va cunoaște creșteri globale în perspectiva anilor 2016 de circa 7% pe an, urmând să atingă o cifră de afaceri de circa 392 de milioane de dolari. Ce mai dinamice piețe, e drept unde business-ul se consolidează de abia acum, se dovedesc a fi Kazahstan (904%), Republica Moldova (160%), Ucraina (46%), Rusia (52%) etc.\r\nȘi România continuă să cunoască o dinamică deosebită din perspectiva Travelport. Printre noutățile din țara noastră anunțate de Travelport se numără semnarea unui nou Contract pentru următorii ani cu Aerotravel. Cu o cifră de afaceri de 35 milioane de euro în 2012 Aerotravel se află în Top 3 al agențiilor de turism din România. Antonio Nițu, liderul companiei declara în legatură cu acest eveniment: ”Lucrăm cu Travelport de mai mulți ani. Apreciem în mod special relația noastră. Suntem încrezători că vom dezvolta acest parteneriat, deoarece am fost impresionați în mod special de leadeship-ul și aplicațiile lor cu noile tehnologii lansate pe piață. De asemenea, de felul în care au reușit să lucreze cu liniile aeriene pentru a crea un produs cu un conținut ușor de implementat de către travel agenți”. La rândul său Anca Stănese, Country Manager România preciza că ”Abordarea noastră de a satisface cererile clienților face diferența între noi și concurență. Îmbinând cele mai îndrăznețe pachete cu cele mai bune tehnologii, sprijinindu-ne pe o excelentă echipă locală, vom continua să creștem în afacere și să oferim noi perspective clienților noștri”.\r\n\r\nDar Travelport a introdus în România și produsul Rapid Reprice. Este primul și cel mai avansat instrument din clasa sa pentru automatizarea completă a procesului prelucrare a tichetelor de avion (preț, schimbare, emitere ori restituire). El a fost introdus deja în Polonia, Rusia și România. Peste 50 de agenții de turism din România folosesc deja acest sistem, piața autohtonă fiind cea mai dinamică din zonă în acest domeniu. ”Noi știm cît de important este pentru clienții noștri să-și desfășoare business-ul la un nivel foarte ridicat de eficiență a costurilor. Suntem bucuroși să observăm cât de rapid a fost adoptat în regiune Rapid Reprice, și cât de apreciate sunt inovația și leadership-ul tehnologic pe care Travelport îl oferă clienților săi” - a mai subliniat Pilarski.

Dar n-am fost asta niciodată nici măcar pe plan regional. Exemplu: În clasamentul veniturilor din turismul internațional al unor țări socialiste europene în 1980 România încasa 324 milioane de dolari SUA, Bulgaria încasa 260 de milioane iar Ungaria 504. În 1988, România scăzuse la 176, în timp ce Bulgaria urcase la 359 iar Ungaria la 759 de milioane de dolari.\r\n\r\nEste adevărat că ne-am dorit să atragem cât mai mulți turiști înstăriți spre stațiunile românești? Realitatea și istoria ne trag de mânecă. Și în perioada de vârf când în România s-au făcut investiții masive - anii 1960-1980 - ele au fost concepute în principal pentru turismul de masă, de grup etc. Predominant a fost turismul intern. ”Din punct de vedere cantitativ credem a nu greși când apreciem că dinamica cea mai mare a avut-o turismul intern. Potrivit lui David Turnock, numărul de turiști interni a crescut de la 1,24 milioane în 1965 la 12 milioane în 1987. Dacă în 1965 peste jumătate dintre acești turiști erau înregistrați în stațiunile balneoclimaterice și de tratament, ulterior dinamica a\r\nfost mult mai mare în ceea ce privește ponderea turismului individual sau organizat în alte tipuri de stațiuni, mai ales pe litoral... În noile condiții turismul intern a crescut puternic în anii 1960-1980, depășind - potrivit înregistrărilor oficiale, care sigur sunt subevaluate - 8 milioane de turiști în 1975, 10 milioane în 1981 și 11,3 milioane în 1988.”![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Coperta-Traveller-Magazin-1101.jpg\" "\\"Coperta")
\r\n\r\nEste adevărat că a existat o perioadă în care turismul românesc a încasat la greu valută din turismul internațional? ”Până în 1970 Oficiul Național de Turism ”Carpați” a deschis 17 birouri de turism românești în 15 țări capitaliste dezvoltate... De la doar 67.000 de intrări în 1959 s-a ajuns la 676.000 în 1965, 3,8 milioane în 1974 și un maximum de 7 milioane intrări în 1981... Nu toți acești cetățeni străini care intrau în România erau însă turiști veritabili, cifrele fiind modificate de micul trafic de frontieră... În perioada 1965-1980 majoritatea turiștilor străini proveneau din Europa (97,2% în 1980), aproape 51% provenind din țările nesocialiste.

\nCu cât tehnologia evoluează cu atât este mai dificil să comunici cu presa, în cazul nostru cu media de travel. Limbajul era cândva destul de accesibil și prietenos. El s-a comprimat în ultimii ani, iar cei care-l reinventează prin jocuri de cuvinte și cifre omit deseori să cupleze conținutul la motorul comunicării care să ajungă ușor până la consumatori.\nLa acest aspect s-au gândit, cu siguranță, specialiștii de la Travelport, unul dintre cele mai performante sistemele globale de rezervări, pe scurt GDS. Drept urmare ei au organizat la Londra prima ediție a ”Europe Media Event 2013”, menită să ne familiarizeze cu noile produse și proiecte lansate chiar în cartierul general al companiei. A fost o invitație în ”cutia neagră” a Travelport, unde am ”procesat” pentru cititorii noștri informații despre tehnologiile viitorului.\n\nGazdele ne-au transmis încă de la început un mesaj de genul - competiția în tehnologie ca și în sport nu se oprește niciodată. De ce am amintit de sport? 15 jurnaliști de travel, am fost invitați nu numai să ne... retehnologizăm ci și să fim martorii unei noi ediții a Regatei Regale de pe Tamisa. Competiția are vechi tradiții aici. Orașul Henley datează din secolul a 12-lea. Prima competiție nautică datează din 1829, când aici s-au întrecut echipele universităților Oxford și Cambridge. Peste 10 ani localitatea Henley organiza prima sa Regată Regală. În 1851 prințul Albert devenea primul patron al Regatei. Prima cursă a durat...3 ore. Azi evenimentul, transformat în Festival prilejuiește nu numai întreceri sportive ci și întâlniri mondene, de socializare. Ținuta e obligatorie și are un pregnant aspect vintage. Fiecare participant vine îmbrăcat în la costum, cravată ori papion. Doamnele se dau în vânt să-și etaleze pălăriile, multe dintre ele create special pentru eveniment. Nouă ne-a făcut plăcere să-l cunoaștem pe maestrul de ceremonii al Regatei dar și pe tinerii Dan Howie și Will North, ce alcătuiesc o echipă de succes în materie de proiecte nautice. Pentru acest an cei doi sportivi pregătesc o croazieră între Insulele Canare și Antigua. Deplasarea se va efectua cu o ambarcațiune modernă, pusă în mișcare, firește, de două perechi de...vâsle. Regata Regală, ar mai fi de spus, se desfășoară de aproape 185 de ani fix, în fiecare a 27 săptămână a anului. Obiceiuri englezești.
\nSă revenim la chestiunile grele. Ce informații am găsit în ”cutia neagră” a Travelport? Compania operează în 170 de țări. Este susținută de 3.500 de angajați, care generează o cifră de afaceri anuală de peste 2 miliarde de dolari. De unde provin acești bani? Din vânzările și rezervările efectuate - la peste 400 de companii aeriene (unde s-au cumpărat pentru călătorii circa 6 miliarde de segmente de zbor), la cele peste 91.000 de proprietăți, o mare parte dintre ele fiind grupate în jurul a 300 de lanțuri hoteliere. Anual Travelport vinde circa 27 de milioane de nopți de cazare, circa 17 milioane de închirieri, la circa 25 de companii de rent a car, și circa 2 milioane de tichete de călătorie în contul a 12 companii și rețele feroviare. Produsele Travelport sunt valorificate pe întreg mapamondul de circa 67.000 de agenții de turism clasice, dar viitorul aduce din ce în ce mai insistent în prim plan, agențiile on-line.\n\n”Europe Media Event 2013” se află la prima ediție - ne spune Kate Aldridge, Senior Director, Corporate Communications la Travelport. Un alt actor al organizării acestei reuniuni este Matt Hennessey, Comunication Manager pentru Europa de Est. El a adăugat că se dorește permanentizarea unui asemenea eveniment, care va prilejui transmiterea către parteneri dar și consumatori a unor mesaje cât mai accesibile și, bineînțeles, profitabile. Cum se va reuși acest lucru ne-au arătat o parte din liderii Travelport. Bryan Conway este de părere că sistemele globale de rezervări - GDS-urile - se află în fața unor provocări generate de noile reformulări economice din industria turistică. În domeniul aerian asistăm la concentrarea produselor ca urmare a noilor achiziții, alianțe ori parteneriate. Efectul? Produsele oferite sunt deja aranjamente complexe de călătorie. Bryan a mai arătat că numai business-ul hotelier așteaptă să atingă, peste patru ani, circa 490 de milioane de dolari, ceea ce se exprimă printr-o creștere anuală de 27%. Dar la un asemenea ”cașcaval financiar” vor apărea la masă și concurenții GDS-urilor. Google, Facebook, Concur sunt doar o parte din cei care își vor adjudeca o felie din această afacere globală.\n\nJason Hancock și Bryan Staunton ne-au prezentat sistemul eNett, în timp ce Fergall Kelly, Ian Heywood și Oscar Castano ne-au vorbit despre Travelport Merchandising Platform. Jason Nash și Tracey Hempstock au tratat aspecte ale noilor tehnologii de accelerare a rezervărilor și vânzărilor, Niklas Andreen și Richard Veitch au prezentat tendințele apărute în rezervările hoteliere și produsul Travelport Rooms and More, care concentrează peste 1 milion de oferte de cazare. Phil Donathy și Pieter van der Voort ne-au descris mutațiile apărute pe platformele de vânzări.\n\nMarcin Pilarski, vice-president & Managing Director pentru Europa de Est ne-a prezentat un tablou optimist. Această zonă va cunoaște creșteri globale în perspectiva anilor 2016 de circa 7% pe an, urmând să atingă o cifră de afaceri de circa 392 de milioane de dolari. Ce mai dinamice piețe, e drept unde business-ul se consolidează de abia acum, se dovedesc a fi Kazahstan (904%), Republica Moldova (160%), Ucraina (46%), Rusia (52%) etc.\nȘi România continuă să cunoască o dinamică deosebită din perspectiva Travelport. Printre noutățile din țara noastră anunțate de Travelport se numără semnarea unui nou Contract pentru următorii ani cu Aerotravel. Cu o cifră de afaceri de 35 milioane de euro în 2012 Aerotravel se află în Top 3 al agențiilor de turism din România. Antonio Nițu, liderul companiei declara în legatură cu acest eveniment: ”Lucrăm cu Travelport de mai mulți ani. Apreciem în mod special relația noastră. Suntem încrezători că vom dezvolta acest parteneriat, deoarece am fost impresionați în mod special de leadeship-ul și aplicațiile lor cu noile tehnologii lansate pe piață. De asemenea, de felul în care au reușit să lucreze cu liniile aeriene pentru a crea un produs cu un conținut ușor de implementat de către travel agenți”. La rândul său Anca Stănese, Country Manager România preciza că ”Abordarea noastră de a satisface cererile clienților face diferența între noi și concurență. Îmbinând cele mai îndrăznețe pachete cu cele mai bune tehnologii, sprijinindu-ne pe o excelentă echipă locală, vom continua să creștem în afacere și să oferim noi perspective clienților noștri”.\n\nDar Travelport a introdus în România și produsul Rapid Reprice. Este primul și cel mai avansat instrument din clasa sa pentru automatizarea completă a procesului prelucrare a tichetelor de avion (preț, schimbare, emitere ori restituire). El a fost introdus deja în Polonia, Rusia și România. Peste 50 de agenții de turism din România folosesc deja acest sistem, piața autohtonă fiind cea mai dinamică din zonă în acest domeniu. ”Noi știm cît de important este pentru clienții noștri să-și desfășoare business-ul la un nivel foarte ridicat de eficiență a costurilor. Suntem bucuroși să observăm cât de rapid a fost adoptat în regiune Rapid Reprice, și cât de apreciate sunt inovația și leadership-ul tehnologic pe care Travelport îl oferă clienților săi” - a mai subliniat Pilarski.

\r\nFără îndoială că așa este. În multe județe, după desființarea ca să nu spunem distrugerea unor obiective industriale, mari generatoare de locuri de muncă, de venituri, dar și de poluare uneori, atât autoritățile cât și investitorii și-au grupat energiile spre dezvoltarea turismului.\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\n\r\n
Sigur, sună frumos. Mai trebuie să și ai atracții majore în zonă pe care să le pui în valoare, și din care să scoți bani. Dar nu e suficient. Ca să le pui în valoare trebuie să investești pentru a le promova. Uneori banul iese înzecit din turism, alteori se duce într-o gaură neagră. Depinde de interesul și de priceperea organismelor care derulează campaniile de promovare. O aplicație despre cum se poate începe un asemenea demers a fost prezentată la hotelul Peștera din Parcul Național Bucegi, în cadrul Conferinței Naționale cu tema ”Promovarea potențialului turistic al județului Dâmbovița”. Practic manifestarea a marcat încheierea unui program de care a beneficiat Consiliul Județean Dâmbovița, în parteneriat cu o asociație de dezvoltare. Proiectul a fost implementat pe parcursul a 27 de luni. Prin el a fost promovat potențialul turistic zonal. În acest scop au fost create un portal de informații turistice, un ghid și o hartă turistică în ediții bilingve, două firme de prezentare, flyere, vederi, CD-uri etc. Rezultatele și produsele create au fost distribuite publicului și la patru ediții ale Târgurilor naționale ori internaționale de turism de la Romexpo.\r\n\r\nPe ce simboluri se sprijină promovarea turistică a județului Dâmbovița? Conform pliantelor editate printre atracțiile naturale se numără Vârful Omu, Babele, Sfinxul, Cheile Zănoagei, Cheile Urșilor, Peștera Ialomicioarei, precum și lacul de acumulare Bolboci. Lor și se alătură și Zimbrăria Neagră de la Bucșani, dacă nu știați cea mai mare rezervație de zimbrii din România. Dar și atracțiile construite în istorie precum Turnul Chindiei, Curtea Domnească, Mitropolia din Târgoviște (oraș care timp de 300 de ani a fost capitala Țării Românești și cetatea de scaun pentru 33 de voievozi), iar imaginile de referință ar fi cele ale lui Vlad Țepeș și Mihai Viteazul, al cărui cap se odihnește la Mănăstirea Dealu.\r\n\r\n Gabriela Țigu, unul dintre liderii Asociației Academice de Cercetare în Turism și Servicii (CACTUS), prorector al ASE București a subliniat în cadrul conferinței rolul de consultant în proiect avut de această organizație de reunește o mare parte din specialiștii și cercetătorii tineri în domeniu turismului. Împreună cu colegii săi a fost creată o cercetare aplicativă care să releve și să stabilească o parte dintre cele mai importante simboluri pe care trebuie să meargă promovarea turistică și marketingul județului Dâmbovița.\r\n\r\nLa rîndul său Adrian Țuțuianu, președintele Consiliului Județean Dîmbovița a declarat că dezvoltarea turismului are un dușman de temut: Birocrația! ”Dezvoltarea turismului se poate face numai prin politici care țintesc pe termen lung, viitorul. Peste 90% din societățile din turism sunt IMM-uri, iar pentru acestea trebuie să existe surse de finanțare mai prietenoase, mai accesibile. Dar oricât ar dori acestea să se dezvolte fără un plan de perspectivă, la nivel național dar și regional, se vor irosi numeroase resurse fără un impact major. Instituția pe care o conduc este preocupată de proiecte de viitor, cu continuitate. Purtăm discuții cu doi învestitori importanți din Israel și Italia.

\nFără îndoială că așa este. În multe județe, după desființarea ca să nu spunem distrugerea unor obiective industriale, mari generatoare de locuri de muncă, de venituri, dar și de poluare uneori, atât autoritățile cât și investitorii și-au grupat energiile spre dezvoltarea turismului.\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\n\n
Sigur, sună frumos. Mai trebuie să și ai atracții majore în zonă pe care să le pui în valoare, și din care să scoți bani. Dar nu e suficient. Ca să le pui în valoare trebuie să investești pentru a le promova. Uneori banul iese înzecit din turism, alteori se duce într-o gaură neagră. Depinde de interesul și de priceperea organismelor care derulează campaniile de promovare. O aplicație despre cum se poate începe un asemenea demers a fost prezentată la hotelul Peștera din Parcul Național Bucegi, în cadrul Conferinței Naționale cu tema ”Promovarea potențialului turistic al județului Dâmbovița”. Practic manifestarea a marcat încheierea unui program de care a beneficiat Consiliul Județean Dâmbovița, în parteneriat cu o asociație de dezvoltare. Proiectul a fost implementat pe parcursul a 27 de luni. Prin el a fost promovat potențialul turistic zonal. În acest scop au fost create un portal de informații turistice, un ghid și o hartă turistică în ediții bilingve, două firme de prezentare, flyere, vederi, CD-uri etc. Rezultatele și produsele create au fost distribuite publicului și la patru ediții ale Târgurilor naționale ori internaționale de turism de la Romexpo.\n\nPe ce simboluri se sprijină promovarea turistică a județului Dâmbovița? Conform pliantelor editate printre atracțiile naturale se numără Vârful Omu, Babele, Sfinxul, Cheile Zănoagei, Cheile Urșilor, Peștera Ialomicioarei, precum și lacul de acumulare Bolboci. Lor și se alătură și Zimbrăria Neagră de la Bucșani, dacă nu știați cea mai mare rezervație de zimbrii din România. Dar și atracțiile construite în istorie precum Turnul Chindiei, Curtea Domnească, Mitropolia din Târgoviște (oraș care timp de 300 de ani a fost capitala Țării Românești și cetatea de scaun pentru 33 de voievozi), iar imaginile de referință ar fi cele ale lui Vlad Țepeș și Mihai Viteazul, al cărui cap se odihnește la Mănăstirea Dealu.\n\n Gabriela Țigu, unul dintre liderii Asociației Academice de Cercetare în Turism și Servicii (CACTUS), prorector al ASE București a subliniat în cadrul conferinței rolul de consultant în proiect avut de această organizație de reunește o mare parte din specialiștii și cercetătorii tineri în domeniu turismului. Împreună cu colegii săi a fost creată o cercetare aplicativă care să releve și să stabilească o parte dintre cele mai importante simboluri pe care trebuie să meargă promovarea turistică și marketingul județului Dâmbovița.\n\nLa rîndul său Adrian Țuțuianu, președintele Consiliului Județean Dîmbovița a declarat că dezvoltarea turismului are un dușman de temut: Birocrația! ”Dezvoltarea turismului se poate face numai prin politici care țintesc pe termen lung, viitorul. Peste 90% din societățile din turism sunt IMM-uri, iar pentru acestea trebuie să existe surse de finanțare mai prietenoase, mai accesibile. Dar oricât ar dori acestea să se dezvolte fără un plan de perspectivă, la nivel național dar și regional, se vor irosi numeroase resurse fără un impact major. Instituția pe care o conduc este preocupată de proiecte de viitor, cu continuitate. Purtăm discuții cu doi învestitori importanți din Israel și Italia. În principiu este vorba de construirea unei stațiuni turistice la Nucet, respectiv de dezvoltarea unei zone rezidențiale și imobiliare, de la care ne așteptăm la un impact pozitiv. Suntem la fel de interesați și de dezvoltarea unor relații de afaceri cu firme austriece producătoare de mijloace de transport pe cablu. Asta, deoarece avem proiecte pentru 3 pârtii de schi.

\r\nDarko Lorencin, liderul turismului croat a anunțat că țara sa și-a definitivat o strategie care vizează anii 2020. Principalul obiectiv îl constituie investițiile prin care Croația dorește să ajungă în topul celor mai atractive 20 de destinații turistice ale lumii. Drept urmare până la sfârșitul deceniului vor fi alocate resurse de aproximativ 7 miliarde de euro pentru dezvoltarea industriei turistice. O treime din acest buget va fi investită în construirea de hoteluri și stațiuni, echivalente cu 20.000 de noi camere, precum și pentru modernizarea unor capacități existente.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/croatia.jpg\" "\\"croatia\\"")
\r\nMinistrul croat se așteaptă ca în urma investițiilor ce vor fi derulate în viitorii 7 ani veniturile din turism să se dubleze, până la 14 miliarde de euro, iar numărul nopților consumate în unitățile de cazare să crească cu 40%, de la aproximativ 70 milioane cât se înregistrează în prezent. Anul trecut, Croația a fost vizitată de 12,3 milioane de turiști, în creștere cu 5,1% comparativ cu 2011. Călătorii străini, în special cei veniți din Germania, Slovenia, Austria și Italia, au acoperit peste 10,8 milioane de vizite.\r\n\r\nPotrivit unui studiu realizat de Forumul Economic Mondial, în 2011 Croația se afla pe locul 34 în topul celor mai atractive state pentru dezvoltarea turistică, clasament dominat de Elveția, Germania și Franța. Turismul croat, un motor puternic al economiei furnizează aproximativ 19% din Produsul Intern Brut al țări ce deține o populație de 4,2 milioane de locuitori.
Hawaii are o prognoză optimistă\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Hawai-stand-12.jpg\" "\\"Hawai")
\r\nAutoritatea de Turism a Hawaii și-a revizuit prognoza de dezvoltare pentru perioada 2012-2014 în ceea ce privește primirea de turiști internaționali de pe piețele tradiționalele - SUA, Canada, Japonia, Oceania și Europa, care au depășit cu mult țintele inițiale, stabilite 2011. Mike McCartney, președinte & CEO al HTA a precizat că această creștere se regăseste în statistici: ”Zilnic am înregistrat cu 1800 mai mulți turiști, fiecare cheltuind în plus 17 dolari pe zi comparativ cu 2011.”\r\n\r\n\r\nÎn 2012 Hawaii a avut o creștere a turismului internațional de 9,8% adică 4,7 milioane de vizitatori, care au cheltuit mai mult cu 1,4 miliarde de dolari față de anul precedent. În aceeași perioadă cheltuielile vizitatorilor au generat peste 915 milioane de dolari, sub formă de taxe ceea ce a ajutat economia locală să susțină peste 160.000 de locuri de muncă.
HILTON investeşte în “cetăţenii lumii”\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/hilton-1.jpg\" "\\"hilton")
\r\n\r\nÎn timp ce alte lanţuri hoteliere internaţionale caută să-şi consolideze brandurile operaţionale Hilton Hotels Corporation adoptă o filosofie inovativă. Începutul acestei noi ere s-a produs anul trecut când liderii companiei globale au anunţat diversificarea portofoliului prin apariţia unui nou brand hotelier - Denizen Hotels.\r\nDesignerii unui brand accesibil\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Londra-panorama.jpg\" "\\"Londra")
\r\nÎn traducere asta ar însemna “cetăţean al lumii” o sintagmă care exprimă noua filosofie în poziţionarea faţă de clienţi. Despre această tendinţă Ross Klein, directorul global al brandurilor luxury&lifestyle al Hilton, spune că ea “cochetează” cu oaspeţii care îşi doresc să trăiască o experienţă extraordinară, atât la nivel funcţional cât şi emoţional. Spaţiile sociale destinate unei comunităţi active şi cadrul tehnologic de ultima generaţie, reprezintă nucleul brandului Denizen Hotels. Zonele interioare şi exterioare sunt proiectate de renumiţi arhitecţi şi designeri - Charles Allem, Clodagh şi David Rockwell fiind doar trei dintre aceştia. Denizen Hotels va acoperi atât segmentul business cât şi cel de leisure, iar serviciile de înaltă calitate vor fi oferite la un preţ accesibil. Noul brand completează segmentul luxury&lifestyle al companiei, care mai include hotelurile Waldorf Astoria, Waldorf Astoria Collection şi Conrad Hotels & Resorts. Denizen Hotels se va poziţiona atât în spaţiile metropolitane cât şi în staţiuni turistice, variind de la experienţe exclusiviste la destinaţii populare.\r\n\r\nNassetta ne asteaptă la Las Vegas\r\n\r\nPe ce pieţe se va poziţiona lanţul hotelier în acest an şi în perspectivele medii şi lungi ? Un răspuns a fost oferit Christopher J. Nassetta, preşedinte şi CEO în cadrul Hilton Hotels Corp. El a subliniat că “adaugarea brandului Denizen Hotels demonstrează angajamentul companiei de a investi într-o strategie durabilă. Negocieri, aflate în diverse stadii, sunt purtate pentru deschiderea unor unităţi noi la Abu Dhabi, Austin, Beverly Hills, Buenos Aires, Cancun, Hollywood, Istanbul, Ierusalim, Las Vegas, Londra, Los Cabos, Miami, Montreal, Mumbai, New York, Panama City si Washington DC”.\r\nFoarte dinamice – Arabia Saudită şi Turcia\r\n\r\nNumai în Arabia Saudită a fost semnat un contract pentru dezvoltarea a 13 proprietăţi care vor aduce pe piaţă circa 2.500 de camere noi. Partenerul de afaceri este Abdulmohsen Al-Hokair, companie ce se ocupă de poziţionarea noilor unităţi cu brandul Hilton Garden Inn. La fel de spectaculoasă este şi piaţa turistică din Turcia care va oferi 15 noi hoteluri ce vor funcţiona sub brandurile Hampton şi Hilton Garden. Acestea vor deveni funcţionale în puncte-cheie – staţiuni turistice şi marile oraşe. Acordul cu această ţară, semnat cu grupul Ampolio, prevede operarea a 2.500 de camere noi. Până acum au fost deschise opt hoteluri standard la care se adaugă şi primul complex Hilton Resort. Construcţia şi managementul sunt asigurate în parteneriat cu firma Gocay Turizm. În a doua parte a anului sunt prevăzute a intra în circuitul turistic, două noi unităţi în oraşul Bursa. Ele vor avea capacităţi de 170, respectiv 106 camere.\r\n1.000 în 10 ani
Acesta este cel de-al patrulea acord strategic încheiat de Hilton Hotels pe piaţa europeană. El face parte din planul companiei de a-şi întări poziţia continent unde va deschide în următorii cinci ani circa 65 de hoteluri. La nivel internaţional, compania are un target şi mai ambiţios – inaugurarea în următorii zece ani a peste 1.000 de hoteluri. Acum Hilton Hotels Corporation este poziţionat cu toate brandurile sale în peste 77 de ţări, printre care şi România, unde operează peste 3.200 de unităţi hoteliere cu 545.000 de camere.\r\nMARA ANTON\r\n\r\n
\r\n360Cities - cea mai mare fotografie panoramică
\r\n360Cities, cea mai mare colecţie online de fotografii panoramice georeferenţiate, a realizat în parteneriat cu British Telecom, cea mai mare fotografie panoramică din lume, cu o imagine uriașă a Londrei, luată de pe Turnul companiei de telecomunicații din centrul Londrei. Fotografia de 320 gigapixeli a fost creată de fondatorul 360Cities.net, Jeffrey Martin, împreună cu colegii săi Holger Schulze şi Tom Mills. Ei au lucrat timp de trei zile, în noiembrie 2012, ca să captureze 48.600 de imagini. “Am fost onoraţi că am fost aleşi de BT pentru a încerca să atingem acest record mondial în fotografia panoramică şi că am contribuit la comemorarea minunatelor Jocuri Olimpice de la Londra din 2012. Au fost atîtea necunoscute şi variabile de care a trebuit să ţinem cont în planificarea acestei fotografii fără precedent. Am împins soft-ul şi hard-ul până la limită, am avut de furcă şi cu ploaia, cu vântul şi cu alte obstacole potenţiale. Împreună cu colegii mei am făcut o treabă uimitoare şi nu am ratat niciunul dintre cele peste 48.000 de cadre planificate” - a declarat Steve Hercher.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Londra-panorama-2.jpg\" "\\"Londra")

O treime din acest buget va fi investită în construirea de hoteluri și stațiuni, echivalente cu 20.000 de noi camere, precum și pentru modernizarea unor capacități existente.\n\nMinistrul croat se așteaptă ca în urma investițiilor ce vor fi derulate în viitorii 7 ani veniturile din turism să se dubleze, până la 14 miliarde de euro, iar numărul nopților consumate în unitățile de cazare să crească cu 40%, de la aproximativ 70 milioane cât se înregistrează în prezent. Anul trecut, Croația a fost vizitată de 12,3 milioane de turiști, în creștere cu 5,1% comparativ cu 2011. Călătorii străini, în special cei veniți din Germania, Slovenia, Austria și Italia, au acoperit peste 10,8 milioane de vizite.\n\nPotrivit unui studiu realizat de Forumul Economic Mondial, în 2011 Croația se afla pe locul 34 în topul celor mai atractive state pentru dezvoltarea turistică, clasament dominat de Elveția, Germania și Franța. Turismul croat, un motor puternic al economiei furnizează aproximativ 19% din Produsul Intern Brut al țări ce deține o populație de 4,2 milioane de locuitori.
Hawaii are o prognoză optimistă\n\nAutoritatea de Turism a Hawaii și-a revizuit prognoza de dezvoltare pentru perioada 2012-2014 în ceea ce privește primirea de turiști internaționali de pe piețele tradiționalele - SUA, Canada, Japonia, Oceania și Europa, care au depășit cu mult țintele inițiale, stabilite 2011. Mike McCartney, președinte & CEO al HTA a precizat că această creștere se regăseste în statistici: ”Zilnic am înregistrat cu 1800 mai mulți turiști, fiecare cheltuind în plus 17 dolari pe zi comparativ cu 2011.”\n\nÎn 2012 Hawaii a avut o creștere a turismului internațional de 9,8% adică 4,7 milioane de vizitatori, care au cheltuit mai mult cu 1,4 miliarde de dolari față de anul precedent. În aceeași perioadă cheltuielile vizitatorilor au generat peste 915 milioane de dolari, sub formă de taxe ceea ce a ajutat economia locală să susțină peste 160.000 de locuri de muncă.
\nHILTON investeşte în “cetăţenii lumii” \n\nÎn timp ce alte lanţuri hoteliere internaţionale caută să-şi consolideze brandurile operaţionale Hilton Hotels Corporation adoptă o filosofie inovativă. Începutul acestei noi ere s-a produs anul trecut când liderii companiei globale au anunţat diversificarea portofoliului prin apariţia unui nou brand hotelier - Denizen Hotels.\nDesignerii unui brand accesibil\n\nÎn traducere asta ar însemna “cetăţean al lumii” o sintagmă care exprimă noua filosofie în poziţionarea faţă de clienţi. Despre această tendinţă Ross Klein, directorul global al brandurilor luxury&lifestyle al Hilton, spune că ea “cochetează” cu oaspeţii care îşi doresc să trăiască o experienţă extraordinară, atât la nivel funcţional cât şi emoţional. Spaţiile sociale destinate unei comunităţi active şi cadrul tehnologic de ultima generaţie, reprezintă nucleul brandului Denizen Hotels. Zonele interioare şi exterioare sunt proiectate de renumiţi arhitecţi şi designeri - Charles Allem, Clodagh şi David Rockwell fiind doar trei dintre aceştia. Denizen Hotels va acoperi atât segmentul business cât şi cel de leisure, iar serviciile de înaltă calitate vor fi oferite la un preţ accesibil. Noul brand completează segmentul luxury&lifestyle al companiei, care mai include hotelurile Waldorf Astoria, Waldorf Astoria Collection şi Conrad Hotels & Resorts. Denizen Hotels se va poziţiona atât în spaţiile metropolitane cât şi în staţiuni turistice, variind de la experienţe exclusiviste la destinaţii populare.\n\nNassetta ne asteaptă la Las Vegas\n\nPe ce pieţe se va poziţiona lanţul hotelier în acest an şi în perspectivele medii şi lungi ? Un răspuns a fost oferit Christopher J. Nassetta, preşedinte şi CEO în cadrul Hilton Hotels Corp. El a subliniat că “adaugarea brandului Denizen Hotels demonstrează angajamentul companiei de a investi într-o strategie durabilă. Negocieri, aflate în diverse stadii, sunt purtate pentru deschiderea unor unităţi noi la Abu Dhabi, Austin, Beverly Hills, Buenos Aires, Cancun, Hollywood, Istanbul, Ierusalim, Las Vegas, Londra, Los Cabos, Miami, Montreal, Mumbai, New York, Panama City si Washington DC”.\nFoarte dinamice – Arabia Saudită şi Turcia\n\nNumai în Arabia Saudită a fost semnat un contract pentru dezvoltarea a 13 proprietăţi care vor aduce pe piaţă circa 2.500 de camere noi. Partenerul de afaceri este Abdulmohsen Al-Hokair, companie ce se ocupă de poziţionarea noilor unităţi cu brandul Hilton Garden Inn. La fel de spectaculoasă este şi piaţa turistică din Turcia care va oferi 15 noi hoteluri ce vor funcţiona sub brandurile Hampton şi Hilton Garden. Acestea vor deveni funcţionale în puncte-cheie – staţiuni turistice şi marile oraşe. Acordul cu această ţară, semnat cu grupul Ampolio, prevede operarea a 2.500 de camere noi. Până acum au fost deschise opt hoteluri standard la care se adaugă şi primul complex Hilton Resort. Construcţia şi managementul sunt asigurate în parteneriat cu firma Gocay Turizm. În a doua parte a anului sunt prevăzute a intra în circuitul turistic, două noi unităţi în oraşul Bursa. Ele vor avea capacităţi de 170, respectiv 106 camere.\n1.000 în 10 ani
\nAcesta este cel de-al patrulea acord strategic încheiat de Hilton Hotels pe piaţa europeană. El face parte din planul companiei de a-şi întări poziţia continent unde va deschide în următorii cinci ani circa 65 de hoteluri. La nivel internaţional, compania are un target şi mai ambiţios – inaugurarea în următorii zece ani a peste 1.000 de hoteluri. Acum Hilton Hotels Corporation este poziţionat cu toate brandurile sale în peste 77 de ţări, printre care şi România, unde operează peste 3.200 de unităţi hoteliere cu 545.000 de camere.\nMARA ANTON\n\n
\n360Cities - cea mai mare fotografie panoramică
\n360Cities, cea mai mare colecţie online de fotografii panoramice georeferenţiate, a realizat în parteneriat cu British Telecom, cea mai mare fotografie panoramică din lume, cu o imagine uriașă a Londrei, luată de pe Turnul companiei de telecomunicații din centrul Londrei. Fotografia de 320 gigapixeli a fost creată de fondatorul 360Cities.net, Jeffrey Martin, împreună cu colegii săi Holger Schulze şi Tom Mills. Ei au lucrat timp de trei zile, în noiembrie 2012, ca să captureze 48.600 de imagini. “Am fost onoraţi că am fost aleşi de BT pentru a încerca să atingem acest record mondial în fotografia panoramică şi că am contribuit la comemorarea minunatelor Jocuri Olimpice de la Londra din 2012. Au fost atîtea necunoscute şi variabile de care a trebuit să ţinem cont în planificarea acestei fotografii fără precedent. Am împins soft-ul şi hard-ul până la limită, am avut de furcă şi cu ploaia, cu vântul şi cu alte obstacole potenţiale. Împreună cu colegii mei am făcut o treabă uimitoare şi nu am ratat niciunul dintre cele peste 48.000 de cadre planificate” - a declarat Steve Hercher.\n\n360Cities.net este cea mai mare colecție online de fotografii panoramice georeferențiate, create de o rețea de mii de fotografi din întreaga lume. Prin intermediul parteneriatelor cu Google Earth, Microsoft, Nokia Maps și Flipboard, conținutul 360Cities.net se bucură de o audiență internațională.

Dar nu-i destul doar să vrei să seduci. Pentru asta ai nevoie să înveți să faci declarații de dragoste. Nu se poate fără? Se pare că nu! Seducția prin turism este și individuală - pare ceva mai simplă, dar nu este așa -, pentru că presupune selecție și profunzime, tenacitate și perseverență! Cea mai dificilă este seducerea colectivă a turiștilor. Aici nu mai merge cu declarații de dragoste, cu trandafiri, cu floricele pe câmpii, cu dansuri populare, cu cai și balmoș, cu ii, vampiri ori castele, cu mititei, cu trăsuri, cu calușari și ouă încondeiate. Cu pelicani și Dunăre, cu palincă și zăpadă, cu lacrimi ale lui Ovidiu, daci și romani, cu sarmisegetuze, cu maramureși si vioriști, cu bucovine, maici și fetești regale ori negre! Deși, târâș, grăbiș, merge și așa!\r\n\r\nCu ce să seduci pe plan internațional? Cu povești majore, fascinante și durabile, convingătoare, credibile. E bună și moda culturală, interfața între ele, dar trebuie să te sprijini pe povești majore. Dracula rămâne în continuare singura, deocamdată !, poveste turistică durabilă a românilor. Culmea, nu prea avem vreun merit la scrierea ei. Culegem doar fructele! Dar nici asta nu prea știm să facem. Undeva, de aici, ar trebui început. Iar, veți spune! Da, e nevoie de un nou început. E necesar să proiectăm noi povești.\r\n\r\nPentru asta nu e nevoie în primul rând de bani, ci de imaginație! Seducția turistică nu se cântărește în bani! Dar ea determină cu singuranță creșterea atracției unei destinații prin construcția unui spațiu fascinant, fantastic. Într-o lume sufocată de standardizare și reguli numeroase - multe dintre ele inutile ori făcute să îngrașă armata birocraților europeni -, turismul viitorului își propune să creeze și să vândă scenarii fabuloase! Scrise frumos, vândute de oameni cu talent, ele vor fi îmbrățișate de succes. Fascinația, magia turistică, n-au vârstă așa cum fără vârstă rămâne povestea lui Romeo și Julieta! Nu e neapărat nevoie ca turismul românesc să moară de cuțit ori otravă, iar după aceea să renască și să devină celebru. Deși... nu trebuie neglijat nici acest aspect.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Traveller-Magazin-Coperta-112-113.jpg\" "\\"Traveller")

A devenit tradiție. A 4-a ediție a Turnirului Cetăților revine în forță la Brașov în luna august. Aici se va da startul evenimentului care anul trecut a atras sute de mii de turiști. Întrecerile cavalerești, ce pun preț pe virtute atunci când e vorba de frumoasele domnițe din Țara Bârsei, se vor desfășura după următorul program: Bran - 3-4 August – pe Platoul Inima Reginei Maria; Făgăraș - 10-11 August la Cetatea Făgărașului, respectiv Brașov între 24 și 25 August în Piața Sfatului.\n\nTurnirul Cetăților va fi și anul acesta gazda Grădiniței Medievale. Această activitate se adresează copiilor de toate vârstele. \"Am pregătit în acest an ateliere meșteșugărești unde copii vor învăța cum să modeleze ceramica, să realizeze păpuși tradiționale sau să picteze pe lemn și pe sticlă. Conceptul a fost diversificat iar în funcție de locație vor crea programul artistic aproape 60 de cavaleri și domnițe care vor anima piața medievală și vor prezenta viața cotidiană din Evul Mediu.\n\n\nEi vor dansa, se vor lupta și vor interacționa cu publicul. Un punct de atracție îl constituie turnirul cu cai și show-urile cu foc de la finalul fiecărui festival, prezentate de trupa Hypnosiss. Fiecare festival va debuta cu parada personajelor pe muzica Cimpoierilor din Transilvania. \"Fie ca cel mai bun să câștige!\" - ne reamintește sloganul Anemona Hermeneanu, directorul de PR și Comunicare al festivalului. Traveller Magazin este Partener media al manifestării.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFLOREASCA ŞI TEI se convertesc la turism\n\nPrimăria oraşului Bucureşti va dezvolta un circuit turistic pe lacurile Floreasca şi Tei. Proiectul are în vedere amenajarea pentru turism a unei suprafeţe totale de 11 hectare. El va fi realizat prin Programul Operaţional Regional, iar finanţarea este susţinută într-o proporţie consistentă de fonduri europene.\n\nProiectul include amenajarea a 6 porturi turistice, 12 debarcadere pentru ambarcaţiuni mici de agrement şi turistice, 2 amfiteatre cu câte 240 de locuri fiecare şi o sală multifuncţională cu o capacitate de 360 de locuri şi o suprafaţă de 260 metri pătraţi. De asemenea sunt prevăzute 3 piscine destinate agrementului şi 3 pavilioane pentru activităţi culturale şi petrecere a timpului liber. Totodată, de-a lungul malurilor vor fi realizate 4 pistele pentru biciclişti şi 5 posturi de Salvamar. Perioada de dezvoltare şi implementare a proiectului se va derula pe o durată de 28 de luni – a anunţat primarul Sorin Oprescu.\n\n

OUR INTERVIEW\r\nDAVID CONTANT: “We have discovered the 5th season of taste in Romania!”
\r\n“Romania has extremely varied and abundant ingredients for gastronomy. They could be exported to the Michelin restaurants anywhere in the world, they could easily find their place in the most demanding restaurants around the world!”\r\nDavid Contant is one of the most appreciated foreign Chefs operating in Romania. He was born in 1968 in Lyon, the capital city of the French gastronomy. He made his apprenticeship at l\'Haricot restaurant in this town, run by his uncle. He has an experience of about 30 years in gastronomy, gained in restaurants ranked between 1 and 3 Michelin stars in countries such as France, Switzerland, Great Britain, Uruguay, Germany etc. The best chef in Romania (2007) and Golden Chef Bucharest (2009) are only two of the distinctions that he obtained in our country.

\r\nCâștigatoarea concursului EDEN - “Destinații Europeane de Excelență” - a devenit în an comuna Jurilovca din județul Tulcea. Conform selecției ea a fost secondată la nivel național de Gheorghieni – Lacul Roșu (locul 2), Hotarul Frontului de Est (locul 3) respectiv Șaru Dornei (locul 4). Tuturor le va fi acordată sigla EDEN, la fel ca și celorlalte destinații din Europa, siglă ce reprezintă un punct de plecare pentru promovarea excelenței la nivelul destinațiilor din România. Comuna Jurilovca este o destinație, puțin cunoscută. Ea deține o ofertă turistică variată: de la turism balnear (Gura Portiței), turism cultural/istoric (Cetatea Argamum), turism de agrement (trasee pe lacurile din Complexul Razim Sinoe, pescuit la copcă), până la tradițiile și obiceiurilor unei minorități naționale (rușii lipoveni) extrem de bine conservate.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/evenimente.jpg\" "\\"evenimente\\"")

\r\nCapitala Croaţiei, Zagreb, a găzduit în iulie cea de-a II-a ediţie a Festivalului de film turistic „Zagreb – Tourfilm Festival”. Scopul evenimentului a fost de a recunoaşte și recompensa producţiile din sfera audiovizualului care promovează turismul în toate formele lui. Desfăşurat pe parcursul a trei zile, Festivalul – care face parte din Comitetul Internaţional al Festivalurilor de Film Turistic (o prestigioasă reţea de festivaluri de film, înfiinţată în urmă cu 25 de ani)- a reunit 300 de filme turistice din peste 50 de ţări, printre care si România, reprezentată de Televiziunea națională de turism Travel Mix. Reportajul “Zagreb, a City Break”, realizat de Nelu Gheorghe - operator imagine şi editor video şi Mădălina Neagoe - realizator, a fost distins cu Premiul special al juriului.\r\n“Participarea a fost pentru noi o surpriză extrem de plăcută. Am muncit foarte mult la acest reportaj. Am investit timp şi suflet iar faptul că am fost premiaţi de un juriu internaţional, ne-a confirmat că ne aflăm pe un drum al performanței\" - a declarat Mădălina Neagoe. La rândul său Nelu Gheorghe a precizat: \"Suntem bucuroși că am reprezentat România în Croaţia! Premiul primit este un început foarte bun pentru noi şi reprezintă un puternic factor motivaţional.”\r\nTRAVEL MIX este prezent pe piaţa din România din 2011, iar obiectivul său este acela de a promova turismul românesc în toate formele sale. În urma parteneriatelor semnate la această oră canalul TV poate fi recepționat în reţelele RCS&RDS Digital Naţional, UPC Digital Naţional - canalul 309, Orange TV DTH (satelit), AKTA Digital National, Ines IPTV, Dolce Info, pe tabletă, telefon mobil şi pe internet, la adresa www.travelmix.ro/live, - ne-a precizat directorul general Laurenţiu Megelea.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nC.A.E.S.A.R. - Tinerii reproiectează turismul\r\n

\r\nCam asta a fost ambiția primului colecviu dedicat promovării și dezvoltării turismului românesc. Intitulat la fel de ambițios “Turism în România 2030”, el a fost pus în operă, la București, de Centrului pentru Acces la Expertiza Studenților și Absolvenților Români (C.A.E.S.A.R.), împreună cu Liga Studenților Români din Străinătate și Clubul Young Skal. Susținerea principală a venit dinspre Ministerul Economiei dar a fost dublată și de implicarea multor antreprenori, cândva tineri, atrași de inițiativa participanților.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/evenimente-8.jpg\" "\\"evenimente-8\\"")
\r\nAm reținut prezentările lui Călin Ile, manager general Hotel Ibis Gara de Nord despre cele cinci chei ale succesului care lipsesc turismului autohton; Ion Antonescu, fondator Marshal Turism despre ce-ar trebui să facă turismul românesc pentru ca să iasă din anonimat; Antoni Kuhnen, Președinte AvCo Consulting & Contracting, despre necesitatea implicării tinerilor în definirea noilor tendințe de dezvoltare a turismului etc. Din dezbaterile pe secțiuni a reieșit că tinerii prezenți identifică în perspectiva anilor 2030 ca vectori de promovare viabili - Turismul balnear, cel rural și eco-turismul.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/evenimente-6.jpg\" "\\"evenimente-6\\"")

Altfel spus ne-a plăcut replica unei tinere românce ce studiază la Londra: ”Nu știu câți oameni au ales o destinație de vacanță după ce au citit strategia de dezvoltare turistică a unei țări!” Evenimentul a fost susținut și de revista noastră, în calitate de Partener Media.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nZILE GRATUITE FĂRĂ NUMĂR\r\n\r\nAsociația Națională a Agențiilor de Turism (ANAT) a anunțat continuarea programului “Zile gratuite de vacanță” și pentru perioada 15 -31 august 2013. Derulat în parteneriat cu hotelierii din România, el include oferte speciale care vin în sprijinul turiștilor, prin acordarea unui număr de zile gratuite după modelul “plătești 5 nopți și stai 6 sau chiar 7!”.\r\n“Zile gratuite de vacanță” face parte din proiectul “Vacanță în țara mea”, proiect care reunește mai multe campanii distincte, precum ”Înscrieri timpurii”, „Litoralul pentru toți”, “Mini-prețuri de vacanță” - ne-a precizat Adriana Caranfil, consilier de Marketing și PR al ANAT.\r\n\r\n

Organizată la Viena de Institutul Regiunilor Europene ea a adus în prim plan politicile sociale de administrare a dezvoltării urbane și planificarea inteligentă a trasportului public. Conceptul vizează în principal creșterea calitătii vieții cetățenilor ce locuiesc într-o urbe. ”Participarea Brașovului la o astfel de conferință a fost foarte importantă. Am aflat și învățat despre proiecte europene de succes ce s-ar putea implementa și la noi. Spre exemplu am putea și noi organiza așa numitele parcări externe \"Park & Ride\" construite la periferiile orașului de unde vizitatorii ar putea utiliza autobuze pentru a ajunge în centrul orașului - ne-a precizat Christian Macedonschi, reprezentantul Forumului German de la Brașov.\r\n\r\n

\r\n\r\nPARCUL DIN LEMN, spațiu de aventură\r\n\r\nS-a deschis kilometrul 104 pe Transfăgărășan, lângă Cabana Conacul Ursului. El este un Parc de aventură construit pe 5.000 de metri pătrați și a necesitat o investiție de circa 50.000 de lei.

\nCâștigatoarea concursului EDEN - “Destinații Europeane de Excelență” - a devenit în an comuna Jurilovca din județul Tulcea. Conform selecției ea a fost secondată la nivel național de Gheorghieni – Lacul Roșu (locul 2), Hotarul Frontului de Est (locul 3) respectiv Șaru Dornei (locul 4). Tuturor le va fi acordată sigla EDEN, la fel ca și celorlalte destinații din Europa, siglă ce reprezintă un punct de plecare pentru promovarea excelenței la nivelul destinațiilor din România. Comuna Jurilovca este o destinație, puțin cunoscută. Ea deține o ofertă turistică variată: de la turism balnear (Gura Portiței), turism cultural/istoric (Cetatea Argamum), turism de agrement (trasee pe lacurile din Complexul Razim Sinoe, pescuit la copcă), până la tradițiile și obiceiurilor unei minorități naționale (rușii lipoveni) extrem de bine conservate.\n\nEDEN este o competiție organizată anual la nivel național de către Autoritatea Națională pentru Turism în conformitate cu criteriile de selecție agreate de către Comisia Europeană. Proiectul EDEN promovează modele de dezvoltare a turismului durabil in Europa. El se bazează pe concursuri naționale care au loc în fiecare an și în cadrul cărora este selectată câte o „Destinație Europeană de Excelență” – winner și patru runner-up, în fiecare țara participantă.\n\n\n\nTRAVEL MIX - Premiu special la Zagreb\n
\nCapitala Croaţiei, Zagreb, a găzduit în iulie cea de-a II-a ediţie a Festivalului de film turistic „Zagreb – Tourfilm Festival”. Scopul evenimentului a fost de a recunoaşte și recompensa producţiile din sfera audiovizualului care promovează turismul în toate formele lui. Desfăşurat pe parcursul a trei zile, Festivalul – care face parte din Comitetul Internaţional al Festivalurilor de Film Turistic (o prestigioasă reţea de festivaluri de film, înfiinţată în urmă cu 25 de ani)- a reunit 300 de filme turistice din peste 50 de ţări, printre care si România, reprezentată de Televiziunea națională de turism Travel Mix. Reportajul “Zagreb, a City Break”, realizat de Nelu Gheorghe - operator imagine şi editor video şi Mădălina Neagoe - realizator, a fost distins cu Premiul special al juriului.\n“Participarea a fost pentru noi o surpriză extrem de plăcută. Am muncit foarte mult la acest reportaj. Am investit timp şi suflet iar faptul că am fost premiaţi de un juriu internaţional, ne-a confirmat că ne aflăm pe un drum al performanței\" - a declarat Mădălina Neagoe. La rândul său Nelu Gheorghe a precizat: \"Suntem bucuroși că am reprezentat România în Croaţia! Premiul primit este un început foarte bun pentru noi şi reprezintă un puternic factor motivaţional.”\nTRAVEL MIX este prezent pe piaţa din România din 2011, iar obiectivul său este acela de a promova turismul românesc în toate formele sale. În urma parteneriatelor semnate la această oră canalul TV poate fi recepționat în reţelele RCS&RDS Digital Naţional, UPC Digital Naţional - canalul 309, Orange TV DTH (satelit), AKTA Digital National, Ines IPTV, Dolce Info, pe tabletă, telefon mobil şi pe internet, la adresa www.travelmix.ro/live, - ne-a precizat directorul general Laurenţiu Megelea.\n\n\n\nC.A.E.S.A.R. - Tinerii reproiectează turismul\n
\nCam asta a fost ambiția primului colecviu dedicat promovării și dezvoltării turismului românesc. Intitulat la fel de ambițios “Turism în România 2030”, el a fost pus în operă, la București, de Centrului pentru Acces la Expertiza Studenților și Absolvenților Români (C.A.E.S.A.R.), împreună cu Liga Studenților Români din Străinătate și Clubul Young Skal. Susținerea principală a venit dinspre Ministerul Economiei dar a fost dublată și de implicarea multor antreprenori, cândva tineri, atrași de inițiativa participanților.\n\nAm reținut prezentările lui Călin Ile, manager general Hotel Ibis Gara de Nord despre cele cinci chei ale succesului care lipsesc turismului autohton; Ion Antonescu, fondator Marshal Turism despre ce-ar trebui să facă turismul românesc pentru ca să iasă din anonimat; Antoni Kuhnen, Președinte AvCo Consulting & Contracting, despre necesitatea implicării tinerilor în definirea noilor tendințe de dezvoltare a turismului etc. Din dezbaterile pe secțiuni a reieșit că tinerii prezenți identifică în perspectiva anilor 2030 ca vectori de promovare viabili - Turismul balnear, cel rural și eco-turismul.\n\nDiversitatea de opinii exprimate pe parcursul workshop-urilor s-a dovedit cât se poate de benefică pentru identificarea noilor perspective de dezvoltare, menite să împrospăteze strategii prăfuite ce zac în sertarele din birouri turismului ori publicate pe Internet. Altfel spus ne-a plăcut replica unei tinere românce ce studiază la Londra: ”Nu știu câți oameni au ales o destinație de vacanță după ce au citit strategia de dezvoltare turistică a unei țări!” Evenimentul a fost susținut și de revista noastră, în calitate de Partener Media.\n\n\n\nZILE GRATUITE FĂRĂ NUMĂR\n\nAsociația Națională a Agențiilor de Turism (ANAT) a anunțat continuarea programului “Zile gratuite de vacanță” și pentru perioada 15 -31 august 2013. Derulat în parteneriat cu hotelierii din România, el include oferte speciale care vin în sprijinul turiștilor, prin acordarea unui număr de zile gratuite după modelul “plătești 5 nopți și stai 6 sau chiar 7!”.\n“Zile gratuite de vacanță” face parte din proiectul “Vacanță în țara mea”, proiect care reunește mai multe campanii distincte, precum ”Înscrieri timpurii”, „Litoralul pentru toți”, “Mini-prețuri de vacanță” - ne-a precizat Adriana Caranfil, consilier de Marketing și PR al ANAT.\n\n

\n\nBRAȘOV LA ”SMART CITIES”\n\nO echipă de experți din orașul de sub poalele Tâmpei a participat la Conferința Europeană cu tema “Smart Cities: Challenges and Solutions for Urban Mobility in European Cities”. Organizată la Viena de Institutul Regiunilor Europene ea a adus în prim plan politicile sociale de administrare a dezvoltării urbane și planificarea inteligentă a trasportului public. Conceptul vizează în principal creșterea calitătii vieții cetățenilor ce locuiesc într-o urbe. ”Participarea Brașovului la o astfel de conferință a fost foarte importantă. Am aflat și învățat despre proiecte europene de succes ce s-ar putea implementa și la noi. Spre exemplu am putea și noi organiza așa numitele parcări externe \"Park & Ride\" construite la periferiile orașului de unde vizitatorii ar putea utiliza autobuze pentru a ajunge în centrul orașului - ne-a precizat Christian Macedonschi, reprezentantul Forumului German de la Brașov.\n\n
\n\nCEL MAI MARE DRAPEL DIN LUME\n\nCel mai mare steag din lume, drapelul României - cu o dimensiune de 349,42 de metri lungime și 226,92 de metri lățime (79.290 metri pătrați), a fost omologat și a intrat în Guinness World Records (Cartea Recordurilor), a anunțat Jack Brockbank reprezentantul prestigioasei instituții. Drapelul a fost desfășurat pe Aerodromul Clinceni iar la expunerea lui au participat peste 200 de voluntari. Inițiativa a aparținut canalului TV Antena 3 și a fost dezvoltată în parteneriat cu fabricadesteaguri.eu.\n\n
\n\nA DOUA EDIȚIE A FESTIVALULUI ANTIC TOMIS\nVa fi găzduită de orașul Constanța în perioada 16-18 august.

La prima ediție au fost implicați în activitățile evenimentului peste 6.000 de participanți. Alte informații utile despre programul celor trei zile puteți să aflați de pe site-ul oficial al evenimentului www.festivalulantictomis.ro.\n\n
\n\nPARCUL DIN LEMN, spațiu de aventură\n\nS-a deschis kilometrul 104 pe Transfăgărășan, lângă Cabana Conacul Ursului. El este un Parc de aventură construit pe 5.000 de metri pătrați și a necesitat o investiție de circa 50.000 de lei. Parcul din lemn include două trasee de aventuri prin copaci (ropes courses, canopy tour), unul de adulți și unul pentru copii, un poligon de pregătire militară și unul pentru tir cu arcul, și o tiroliană peste râu.

\r\n\r\nBRAȘOV LA ”SMART CITIES”\r\n\r\nO echipă de experți din orașul de sub poalele Tâmpei a participat la Conferința Europeană cu tema “Smart Cities: Challenges and Solutions for Urban Mobility in European Cities”. Organizată la Viena de Institutul Regiunilor Europene ea a adus în prim plan politicile sociale de administrare a dezvoltării urbane și planificarea inteligentă a trasportului public. Conceptul vizează în principal creșterea calitătii vieții cetățenilor ce locuiesc într-o urbe. ”Participarea Brașovului la o astfel de conferință a fost foarte importantă. Am aflat și învățat despre proiecte europene de succes ce s-ar putea implementa și la noi. Spre exemplu am putea și noi organiza așa numitele parcări externe \"Park & Ride\" construite la periferiile orașului de unde vizitatorii ar putea utiliza autobuze pentru a ajunge în centrul orașului - ne-a precizat Christian Macedonschi, reprezentantul Forumului German de la Brașov.\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nCEL MAI MARE DRAPEL DIN LUME\r\n\r\nCel mai mare steag din lume, drapelul României - cu o dimensiune de 349,42 de metri lungime și 226,92 de metri lățime (79.290 metri pătrați), a fost omologat și a intrat în Guinness World Records (Cartea Recordurilor), a anunțat Jack Brockbank reprezentantul prestigioasei instituții.

\r\n\r\nPARCUL DIN LEMN, spațiu de aventură\r\n\r\nS-a deschis kilometrul 104 pe Transfăgărășan, lângă Cabana Conacul Ursului. El este un Parc de aventură construit pe 5.000 de metri pătrați și a necesitat o investiție de circa 50.000 de lei. Parcul din lemn include două trasee de aventuri prin copaci (ropes courses, canopy tour), unul de adulți și unul pentru copii, un poligon de pregătire militară și unul pentru tir cu arcul, și o tiroliană peste râu. Traseul dedicat adulților ajunge și la 6 metri înălțime față de sol, iar poligonul militar are și o probă de aruncat cu... topoare. Parcul se adresează familiilor, grupurilor de prieteni și echipelor care vor un teambuilding antrenant.\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON, ION BADEA, ALEX BARBU','BRAȘOV: Oktoberfest e între 6 și 15 septembrie , EVENIMENTE 112-113','','inherit','open','open','','2297-revision-2','','','2013-09-02 12:29:31','2013-09-02 10:29:31','',2297,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2013/09/02/2297-revision-2/',0,'revision','',0),(2311,1,'2013-09-02 12:47:45','2013-09-02 10:47:45','BRAȘOV: Oktoberfest e între 6 și 15 septembrie \r\nPînă să vă spunem cu ce noutăți vă așteaptă organizatorii în acest an, să vă oferim niște date despre ediția precedentă. În 2012 la Brașov, cu prilejul lui Oktoberfest, s-au consumat peste 125.000 pahare de bere; peste 27.800 cârnați bavarezi Turinger; pentru punerea în operă a evenimentului organizat de SC Bonima Srl, deținătorul mărcii, și inițiat de către Clubul Economic German, au lucrat 215 persoane; Cel mai inedit premiu a fost cel acordat Miss Oktoberfest (echivalentul greutații participantei in bere și montarea unui dozator de bere la ea acasă; Cel mai trist moment a fost atunci când formația a anunțat încheierea ultimei seri. Și tot ca o aducere aminte, în 2010 premiul Miss Popularitate a fost câștigat de o doamni în vârstă de 64 de ani.\r\n
\r\n\r\nUnde vă vor aștepta organizatorii la Oktoberfest-ul de la Brașov. Cu multe suprize. Noua ediție se va desfășura în perioada 6-15 septembrie, pe parcursul a zece zile incendiare ce vor fi stinse, firește, cu.... bere. Locul ? Arena Sportivă Ion Țiriac unde va fi amplasat cel mai mare cort montat vreodată în România. În acesta se află 4.000 de locuri pe băncuțe din lemn - ne-a precizat Christian Macedonschi, președintele APDT Brașov. Aici veți fi întâmpinați cu dansuri și tradiții artistice germane adaptate după modelul autentic bavarez, specialități culinare bavareze, jocuri cu premii, sponsori cu renume, toate alcătuiesc rețeta de succes a Oktoberfest Brașov. Printre cei care vor evolua aici se numără Trupa 6 din Brașov, compozitorii imnului Oktoberfest, nelipsiții Virbelwind, micuțul toboșar Eduard Hosu, trupele Albachtal Express, Rocky 5 etc.\r\n\r\n\r\nO altă mare noutate. Oktoberfest vine și la București unde va fi organizat un Festival cu mare impact. El va fi găzduit de parcarea de la Anchor Plaza Mall în perioada 3-6 octombrie 2012 - ne-a informat organizatorii. Traveller Magazin este unul dintre Partenerii Media ai manifestării.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nJURILOVCA - premiul EDEN 2013\r\n
\r\nCâștigatoarea concursului EDEN - “Destinații Europeane de Excelență” - a devenit în an comuna Jurilovca din județul Tulcea. Conform selecției ea a fost secondată la nivel național de Gheorghieni – Lacul Roșu (locul 2), Hotarul Frontului de Est (locul 3) respectiv Șaru Dornei (locul 4). Tuturor le va fi acordată sigla EDEN, la fel ca și celorlalte destinații din Europa, siglă ce reprezintă un punct de plecare pentru promovarea excelenței la nivelul destinațiilor din România. Comuna Jurilovca este o destinație, puțin cunoscută. Ea deține o ofertă turistică variată: de la turism balnear (Gura Portiței), turism cultural/istoric (Cetatea Argamum), turism de agrement (trasee pe lacurile din Complexul Razim Sinoe, pescuit la copcă), până la tradițiile și obiceiurilor unei minorități naționale (rușii lipoveni) extrem de bine conservate.\r\n\r\nEDEN este o competiție organizată anual la nivel național de către Autoritatea Națională pentru Turism în conformitate cu criteriile de selecție agreate de către Comisia Europeană. Proiectul EDEN promovează modele de dezvoltare a turismului durabil in Europa. El se bazează pe concursuri naționale care au loc în fiecare an și în cadrul cărora este selectată câte o „Destinație Europeană de Excelență” – winner și patru runner-up, în fiecare țara participantă.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nTRAVEL MIX - Premiu special la Zagreb\r\n
\r\nCapitala Croaţiei, Zagreb, a găzduit în iulie cea de-a II-a ediţie a Festivalului de film turistic „Zagreb – Tourfilm Festival”. Scopul evenimentului a fost de a recunoaşte și recompensa producţiile din sfera audiovizualului care promovează turismul în toate formele lui. Desfăşurat pe parcursul a trei zile, Festivalul – care face parte din Comitetul Internaţional al Festivalurilor de Film Turistic (o prestigioasă reţea de festivaluri de film, înfiinţată în urmă cu 25 de ani)- a reunit 300 de filme turistice din peste 50 de ţări, printre care si România, reprezentată de Televiziunea națională de turism Travel Mix. Reportajul “Zagreb, a City Break”, realizat de Nelu Gheorghe - operator imagine şi editor video şi Mădălina Neagoe - realizator, a fost distins cu Premiul special al juriului.\r\n“Participarea a fost pentru noi o surpriză extrem de plăcută. Am muncit foarte mult la acest reportaj. Am investit timp şi suflet iar faptul că am fost premiaţi de un juriu internaţional, ne-a confirmat că ne aflăm pe un drum al performanței\" - a declarat Mădălina Neagoe. La rândul său Nelu Gheorghe a precizat: \"Suntem bucuroși că am reprezentat România în Croaţia! Premiul primit este un început foarte bun pentru noi şi reprezintă un puternic factor motivaţional.”\r\nTRAVEL MIX este prezent pe piaţa din România din 2011, iar obiectivul său este acela de a promova turismul românesc în toate formele sale. În urma parteneriatelor semnate la această oră canalul TV poate fi recepționat în reţelele RCS&RDS Digital Naţional, UPC Digital Naţional - canalul 309, Orange TV DTH (satelit), AKTA Digital National, Ines IPTV, Dolce Info, pe tabletă, telefon mobil şi pe internet, la adresa www.travelmix.ro/live, - ne-a precizat directorul general Laurenţiu Megelea.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nC.A.E.S.A.R. - Tinerii reproiectează turismul\r\n
\r\nCam asta a fost ambiția primului colecviu dedicat promovării și dezvoltării turismului românesc. Intitulat la fel de ambițios “Turism în România 2030”, el a fost pus în operă, la București, de Centrului pentru Acces la Expertiza Studenților și Absolvenților Români (C.A.E.S.A.R.), împreună cu Liga Studenților Români din Străinătate și Clubul Young Skal. Susținerea principală a venit dinspre Ministerul Economiei dar a fost dublată și de implicarea multor antreprenori, cândva tineri, atrași de inițiativa participanților.\r\n\r\nAm reținut prezentările lui Călin Ile, manager general Hotel Ibis Gara de Nord despre cele cinci chei ale succesului care lipsesc turismului autohton; Ion Antonescu, fondator Marshal Turism despre ce-ar trebui să facă turismul românesc pentru ca să iasă din anonimat; Antoni Kuhnen, Președinte AvCo Consulting & Contracting, despre necesitatea implicării tinerilor în definirea noilor tendințe de dezvoltare a turismului etc. Din dezbaterile pe secțiuni a reieșit că tinerii prezenți identifică în perspectiva anilor 2030 ca vectori de promovare viabili - Turismul balnear, cel rural și eco-turismul.\r\n\r\nDiversitatea de opinii exprimate pe parcursul workshop-urilor s-a dovedit cât se poate de benefică pentru identificarea noilor perspective de dezvoltare, menite să împrospăteze strategii prăfuite ce zac în sertarele din birouri turismului ori publicate pe Internet. Altfel spus ne-a plăcut replica unei tinere românce ce studiază la Londra: ”Nu știu câți oameni au ales o destinație de vacanță după ce au citit strategia de dezvoltare turistică a unei țări!” Evenimentul a fost susținut și de revista noastră, în calitate de Partener Media.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nZILE GRATUITE FĂRĂ NUMĂR\r\n\r\nAsociația Națională a Agențiilor de Turism (ANAT) a anunțat continuarea programului “Zile gratuite de vacanță” și pentru perioada 15 -31 august 2013.

S-a născut în 1968 la Lyon, capitala gastronomiei franceze. Ucenicia și-a făcut-o la restaurantul l\'Haricot, din acest oraș, condus de unchiul său, un apreciat bucătar. A absolvit Școala Hotelieră Macon en Saone et Loire, în 1985. Deține o experiență în gastronomie de circa 30 de ani, câștigată în restaurante cotate între 1 și 3 stele Michelin de pe întregul mapamond (Franța, Elveția, Marea Britanie, Uruguay, Germania etc). A asigurat consultanța pe partea de F&B pentru compania Gulf Air din Bahrein (prima clasă), respectiv pentru Georges Blanc din Vonnas, pentru navele de croazieră etc.\r\n\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\n\r\nCel mai bun chef din România (2007), Golden Chef București (2009) sunt doar două dintre distincțiile obținute în țara noastră. Deține o fermă la Conțești (județul Dâmbovița), unde dezvoltă concepte de pionerat dar și activități comerciale.\r\n\r\n- Ai lucrat pe mapamond în mai multe restaurante cotate de la 1 şi 3 stele Michelin. Cred că atunci când ai venit în România aveai un geamantan plin de entuziasm. Peste numai câţiva ani erai la un pas de plecare. Care e distanţa dintre aşteptările tale şi realitatea cu care te-ai întâlnit?\r\n\r\n- Cu toată experiența mea, am venit în România pentru proiectul Heritage. A fost o provocare uriașă, aceea de a crea un punct gastronomic de referință în Europa de Est. A fost primul restaurant haute cuisine la București, într-o locație bine aleasă, în inima Micului Paris. Provocarea a constat și în a construi de la zero un concept unic, proiectarea restaurantului, designul și funcționalitatea bucătăriei, selectarea și instruirea personalului, identificarea și stabilirea furnizorilor de produse, într-un final crearea unui limbaj comun gastronomic în România, la standard Michelin. A fost dorința mea de a aduce la București experiențe culinare gastronomice de acest nivel. De a promova haute cuisine așa cum o practicăm în Franța, Germania, Elveția, Hong Kong, în toate locațiile din lume unde regăsim recomandările faimosului ghid Michelin.\r\n\r\n- După ce ai fost Chef sau ai oferit consultanţă pentru o serie de restaurante din Bucureşti te-ai convertit în investitor şi producător... agricol la Conţeşti. La circa 40 de kilometri de Capitală, ţi-ai creat o fermă a gustului. Un hobby, sau e ceva mai mult ?\r\n\r\n- Aici a început cea de-a doua călătorie a vieții mele, inspirată de Contești, de tot ceea ce am descoperit și de micro-climatul pe care l-am creat aici. Am descoperit că în România sunt atat de multe produse locale autentice extraordinare pentru haute-cuisine, dar precum aurul verde nedescoperit și încă neștiut de mulți dintre noi. Ultimii ani au marcat pentru mine o adevarată “vânătoare de comori”. Aveam tot felul de indicii și de bucăți din hartă, însa tot timpul mai descopeream noi taine ale străbunilor, tradiții, locuri de demult, parcă uitate. În Contești am găsit primul artefact, primele indicii ale comorii, ale patrimoniului extraordinar al acestui pământ; primul pas către descoperirea tezaurului. România este ca o insulă plină de bogății, trebuie însa sa descoperi drumul si cheile de la cuferele cu comori. Dupa un proiect de cercetare de aproape 4 ani, am pus îmbinat toate indiciile descoperite. Acum cred că am harta aproape completă a comorii.\r\n\r\n- Ai călătorit foarte mult în România, vreo 6.000 de kilometri pentru a descoperi viaţa reală, oamenii dar şi specificul culinar al unor zone. Ai testat preparate tradiționale, ai făcut mii de fotografii. Azi eşti un partizan al gastronomiei autentice. Cât de profund ţi-a marcat viaţa această aventură?\r\n\r\n- Mă gândesc că România a fost binecuvantată de Dumnezeu atunci când văd vânatul pe câmp sau știucile, șalaul, racii, hribii, brânzeturile, mieii de Paște, porcii crescuți la țară, păsările de curte, crescute cu boabe, roșiile care pentru mine sunt printre cele mai bune din lume. Ca anecdotă, pot să vă povestesc că înainte să vin în România nu mâncam roșii pentru că mi se păreau absolut lipsite de gust. Acum, o ratatouille gătită cu roșii din grădina mea are cu adevărat gust. Memoria mea afectivă se trezește și mă trimite direct în copilarie când bunica mea gătea acest fel atât de simplu, dar atât de gustos. Cea de-a doua călătorie profesională este o evoluție în viața mea de cuisinier, un voiaj în regatul conștiintei. Timp de trei ani, mi-am concentrat efortul creator pe un nou proiect, născut la începutul acestei perioade, după cum vă povesteam, la Conțești. Știinta și pasiunea de a oferi oaspeților experiențe culinare cu produse exclusiv românești, este bazată pe o cercetare desfășurată în diferite zone ale țării. Am călătorit prin România, descoperind țărani, fermieri, ciobani, cunoscând trufele, caviarul și ciupercile românești, fiind astfel capabil de a îmi crea propriul microconcept – ferma cu animale domestice, legume și pomi fructiferi pe care am dezvoltat-o în apropierea râului Dâmbovița. Acolo am descoperit o a doua glie, la 40 de kilometri de București. A doua rădăcină, într-o câmpie foarte fertilă, cu o vedere frumoasă către Carpați. Pentru a ajunge la răspunsurile pe care le caut, am hotărât să îmi pun întrebări concrete de genul: Ce avem noi azi în farfurie?; Ce moștenire vom lăsa copiilor?; Poate exista o gastronomie românească autentică?\r\n\r\n- Eşti adeptul conceptului \"100% românesc\", un rezultat complex al mai multor ani de cercetări şi experienţe. Care este conţinutul acestuia?\r\n\r\n- Pot fi produsele autohtone transportate peste mări și țări? Produse de calitate, având marca pământului românesc, precum roșile, nucile, trufele, varietăți de paste, brânzeturi pot trece dincolo de granițele țării? Proiectul \"100% românesc\" militează tocmai pentru această recunoaștere internațională – produse de nișă, naturale, autentice. Acum se importă masiv din Grecia sau Turcia, de pildă. România însă are ingrediente extrem de diverse și bogate pentru gastronomie. Ele ar putea fi exportate către restaurantele Michelin oriunde în lume, și-ar putea găsi cu ușurinta locul în cele mai pretențioase restaurante de pe mapamond. Este timpul să luptăm pentru crearea de mărci DOC (Denumire de Origine Controlată) care vor certifica o identitate puternică – este nevoie de multă seriozitate, muncă susținută, disciplină și rigoare -, asa cum e toată munca în gastronomie, de altfel. Beneficiile pentru România se vor dovedi fabuloase… Nu am în vedere reinventarea unor rețete tradiționale, ci de a folosi și pune în valoare produsele locale, printr-o interpretare modernă, contemporană. Vedetele conceptului \"100%.ro\" sunt micii prducători și țăranii, acești prinți ai pământului. Ei sunt baza unei gastronomii adevărate, în special a gastronomiei românești. Soluția rămâne micro-agricultura sau produsele agricole provenite de la micro-ferme. Identitatea gastronomică a unui individ sau a unei țări se creionează prin intermediul abordării pluriculturale, prin discursul gastronomic și prin dezvoltarea personalizată a acestuia.\r\n\r\n- Se poate spune că experienţele româneşti ţi-au retrezit memoria afectivă a gustului din copilăria pe care ai petrecut-o în Franţa ?\r\n\r\n- Când mă plimb cu bicicleta pe drumurile de țară – și fac adesea asta – de cele mai multe ori neasfaltate, abandonate de fondurile publice, îmi amintesc de lumea copilariei mele. Și asta mă inspiră în crearea felurilor de mâncare și mă determină să spun că de fapt, până la urmă, e o adevarată fericire să stai departe de societatea de consum. Sunt atâtea efecte benefice. Nu există poluare, nici îngrășăminte chimice, poți admira sutele de hectare lăsate în pârloagă, berzele pe câmpuri, căprioarele care se aventurează departe de pădure și mai ales fluturii. De ce vorbesc despre fluturi ? Ei bine, e simplu. Am făcut această descoperire acum zece ani în Lozère, ținutul meu natal. Nu mai existau fluturi și această situație e una foarte gravă, deoarece fluturii sunt foarte sensibili la schimbările eco-climatului. Ei sunt primii care dispar din cauza îngrășămintelor chimice, a produselor toxice și în general a poluării. Acest lucru demonstrează că lanțul alimentației s-a rupt. Nu mai există fluturi, nici arici sau vipere și tot așa până ajungem, pe scara evoluției, până la noi, la oameni. Vă invit să descoperiți asta gândindu-vă la copilăria voastră. Amintiți-vă cum vă plăcea să alergați cu plasa de prins fluturi în mână. Veți constata că azi nu mai e posibil să faceți același lucru, ceea ce e înspăimântător. Tot ceea ce descoperim ca fiind negativ trebuie schimbat în pozitiv. Pământul era înainte sănătos, nu cunoscuse practic niciodată această agresiune chimică din partea cultivatorilor de cereale care sunt mai preocupați de dividendele lor decât de lumea pe care o lăsăm celor care ne vor urma.\r\n\r\n- Sunt românii sunt ospitalieri sau că aceasta este doar o legendă !\r\n\r\n-Cu siguranță da. Aveți încredere în țăranii voștri. Fiți pionieri și în zece ani veți fi copiați de alte țări. Faceți turism ecologic, căci aceasta e adevărata rețetă a turismului astăzi. Copiii nu pot fi educați mai bine altundeva decât la țară, în preajma animalelor de fermă. Aici își pot descoperi rădăcinile și originile. Țăranii vor fi încântați să vă primească pentru că sunt oameni primitori și veseli în ciuda condițiilor lor de viață spartane. Am descoperit oameni deschiși, primitori, binevoitori, încântați de a deschide porțile caselor lor și de a te primi cu inima voioasă și bucate pe masă – aceste comori de care vă povesteam. Mulțumită lor le-am descoperit.\r\n\r\n- Cât de mult s-ar putea individualiza arta noastră culinară, prin promovarea unor mărci DOC?\r\n\r\n- Bucureștiul a fost supranumit cândva “Micul Paris”. De ce să nu creem Micul Rungis? O piață de desfacere precum în Rungis, aproape de Paris. Eu cred că România are capacitatea de a exporta produse de calitate, în loc să importe, are șansa de a avea produse minunate. Crearea de mărci DOC (Denumire de Origine Controlată) și fixarea unui caiet de sarcini ar putea duce la apariția a noi locuri de muncă în mediul rural care are atâta nevoie de asta. Trebuie construită o identitate puternică din acest punct de vedere, pentru a reda încrederea țăranilor români. De ce să nu creăm o piață adaptată timpurilor moderne? Ca aceea de la Rungis. Câteva cifre ce pot explica potențialul ei uriaș – pe o suprafață de 232 hectare, mai mult de 55.000 de metri pătrați sunt acoperiți. Parcarea ocupă 58 de hectare. Sunt 1600 de firme care își desfășoară activitatea, 20 de bănci implicate, 30 de restaurante – care oferă locuri de muncă pentru 14.000 de persoane. 28.000 de vehicule sosesc zilnic aici pentru aprovizionare. Rungis aprovizionează de la Paris 18 milioane de consumatori europeni. Toate tranzacțiile sunt înregistrate electronic, controlate meticulos de către stat. 50.000 de tone de pești de mare, 11.000 cu pește de apă dulce, carne 450.000 de tone, brânzeturi 72.000 tone, unt 9.500 tone, ouă 40.000 de tone; dintre legume – roșii 105.000 de tone; pepeni 40.000 tone etc. O astfel de piață de desfacere poate fi o soluție pentru ieșirea din criză – un sistem ce poate creea multe locuri de muncă, ce poate stimula, angaja și promova producătorii români și produsele românești – relansarea sistemelor rurale, susținerea lanțului alimentar, calitate garantată pentru consumator, român și de ce nu străin? Pentru mine produsele și preparatele ce ar putea fi recunoscute ca DOC sunt precum acuarelele unui pictor în atelierul de creație, bucătăria deschisă unde vă invit să călătorim împreună într-un univers culinar care se întinde între tradiție și modernitate. Vă mai aduceți aminte de diminețile din curtea bunicilor? De timpurile acelea când nu aveam griji și parcă toată lumea era a noastră? Să ne bucurăm împreună de Cocoșul de Contești cu un buchet de arome al unui vin bun românesc, Feteasca Neagră. Apoi, când soarele cu dinți începe să topească zăpada, să mergem pe o potecă șerpuită printre fâșii subțiri de nea, să ne bucurăm de cristalele de la râu. Cu un strop de magie culinară, putem porni împreună într-o nouă aventură în căutarea diamantelor negre – trufele -, acele nestemate încă nedescoperite, ascunse pe la poalele Munților Carpați.\r\n\r\n- Generaţiile care vin, trăiesc viaţa în cu totul alte viteze decât noi. Mănâncă mai repede, iubesc mai repede, uită mai repede. În ce măsură crezi că gustul produselor tradiţionale îşi va găsi loc în viaţa lor?\r\n\r\n- Ce se întâmplă generațiilor de astăzi este rezultatul acțiunilor noastre și a celor dinaintea noastră. De aceea acum este ultimul tren, momentul în care putem să ne unim pentru a salva ceea ce a mai rămas din patrimoniul fiecăruia dintre noi, fiecărei țări și națiuni, specificul și tradițiile, produsele și valorile pe care încă le mai deținem. Este datoria noastră să le îmbogățim și să le transmitem mai departe. De aceea timpul prezent, ziua de azi, ne pune în fața unei provocări uriașe, în aceeași măsură extraordinar de frumoasă.\r\n\r\n- Ideea de a face un Album foto-gastronomic ne-a fascinat pe amândoi. Inspiraţi de Vivaldi, am dorit să-i dăm numele „Cele 5 anotimpuri ale gustului”. Cum arată cel de-al cincilea anotimp?\r\n\r\n- Al 5-lea anotimp al gustului l-am descoperit în România. Este întreaga poveste a comorilor ascunse, aventura de a le descoperi și valorifica și de a le aduce aproape de fiecare dintre noi. Al 5-lea anotimp al gustului este așadar cuisine de terroir, de inspirație, care-și trage seva din fiecare anotimp în parte, gastronomia noului început de secol. Al cincelea anotimp este propria poveste, care ne permite să visăm și să ne proiectăm viața într-un mod unic, original. Cred că acest album reflectă o parte din căutările mele. Și el este, cu siguranță, începutul unei noi povești scrisă de un francez îndrăgostit de România.\r\n(Fragment din albumul foto-gastronomic \" David Contant - Cele 5 Anotimpuri ale Gustului\", în curs de apariție la Editura Convexus 2000)\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Interviu cu David Contant, INTERVIU nr.112-113','','publish','open','open','','interviu-cu-david-contant-interviu-nr-112-113','','','2013-10-29 23:12:28','2013-10-29 21:12:28','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2313',0,'post','',0),(2314,1,'2013-09-02 13:04:52','2013-09-02 11:04:52','','interviu-david-contant','','inherit','open','open','','interviu-david-contant','','','2013-09-02 13:04:52','2013-09-02 11:04:52','',2313,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/interviu-david-contant.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2315,1,'2013-09-02 13:04:53','2013-09-02 11:04:53','','interviu-david-contant2','','inherit','open','open','','interviu-david-contant2','','','2013-09-02 13:04:53','2013-09-02 11:04:53','',2313,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/interviu-david-contant2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2316,1,'2013-09-02 13:04:54','2013-09-02 11:04:54','','interviu-david-contant3','','inherit','open','open','','interviu-david-contant3','','','2013-09-02 13:04:54','2013-09-02 11:04:54','',2313,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/interviu-david-contant3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2317,1,'2013-09-02 13:04:54','2013-09-02 11:04:54','','interviu-david-contant4','','inherit','open','open','','interviu-david-contant4','','','2013-09-02 13:04:54','2013-09-02 11:04:54','',2313,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/interviu-david-contant4.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2318,1,'2013-09-02 13:04:55','2013-09-02 11:04:55','','interviu-david-contant5','','inherit','open','open','','interviu-david-contant5','','','2013-09-02 13:04:55','2013-09-02 11:04:55','',2313,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/interviu-david-contant5.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2319,1,'2013-09-02 13:04:56','2013-09-02 11:04:56','','interviu-david-contant6','','inherit','open','open','','interviu-david-contant6','','','2013-09-02 13:04:56','2013-09-02 11:04:56','',2313,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/interviu-david-contant6.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2320,1,'2013-09-02 13:04:57','2013-09-02 11:04:57','','interviu-david-contant7','','inherit','open','open','','interviu-david-contant7','','','2013-09-02 13:04:57','2013-09-02 11:04:57','',2313,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/interviu-david-contant7.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2321,1,'2013-09-02 13:04:58','2013-09-02 11:04:58','','interviu-david-contant8','','inherit','open','open','','interviu-david-contant8','','','2013-09-02 13:04:58','2013-09-02 11:04:58','',2313,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/interviu-david-contant8.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2322,1,'2013-09-02 13:05:15','2013-09-02 11:05:15','DAVID CONTANT: „Al 5-lea anotimp al gustului l-am descoperit în România!”\n\nEste unul dintre cei mai apreciați Maeștri bucătari (Chefi) străini ce activează în România. S-a născut în 1968 la Lyon, capitala gastronomiei franceze. Ucenicia și-a făcut-o la restaurantul l\'Haricot, din acest oraș, condus de unchiul său, un apreciat bucătar. A absolvit Școala Hotelieră Macon en Saone et Loire, în 1985. Deține o experiență în gastronomie de circa 30 de ani, câștigată în restaurante cotate între 1 și 3 stele Michelin de pe întregul mapamond (Franța, Elveția, Marea Britanie, Uruguay, Germania etc). A asigurat consultanța pe partea de F&B pentru compania Gulf Air din Bahrein (prima clasă), respectiv pentru Georges Blanc din Vonnas, pentru navele de croazieră etc.\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\n\nCel mai bun chef din România (2007), Golden Chef București (2009) sunt doar două dintre distincțiile obținute în țara noastră. Deține o fermă la Conțești (județul Dâmbovița), unde dezvoltă concepte de pionerat dar și activități comerciale.\n\n- Ai lucrat pe mapamond în mai multe restaurante cotate de la 1 şi 3 stele Michelin. Cred că atunci când ai venit în România aveai un geamantan plin de entuziasm. Peste numai câţiva ani erai la un pas de plecare. Care e distanţa dintre aşteptările tale şi realitatea cu care te-ai întâlnit?\n\n- Cu toată experiența mea, am venit în România pentru proiectul Heritage. A fost o provocare uriașă, aceea de a crea un punct gastronomic de referință în Europa de Est. A fost primul restaurant haute cuisine la București, într-o locație bine aleasă, în inima Micului Paris. Provocarea a constat și în a construi de la zero un concept unic, proiectarea restaurantului, designul și funcționalitatea bucătăriei, selectarea și instruirea personalului, identificarea și stabilirea furnizorilor de produse, într-un final crearea unui limbaj comun gastronomic în România, la standard Michelin. A fost dorința mea de a aduce la București experiențe culinare gastronomice de acest nivel. De a promova haute cuisine așa cum o practicăm în Franța, Germania, Elveția, Hong Kong, în toate locațiile din lume unde regăsim recomandările faimosului ghid Michelin.\n\n- După ce ai fost Chef sau ai oferit consultanţă pentru o serie de restaurante din Bucureşti te-ai convertit în investitor şi producător... agricol la Conţeşti. La circa 40 de kilometri de Capitală, ţi-ai creat o fermă a gustului. Un hobby, sau e ceva mai mult ?\n\n- Aici a început cea de-a doua călătorie a vieții mele, inspirată de Contești, de tot ceea ce am descoperit și de micro-climatul pe care l-am creat aici. Am descoperit că în România sunt atat de multe produse locale autentice extraordinare pentru haute-cuisine, dar precum aurul verde nedescoperit și încă neștiut de mulți dintre noi. Ultimii ani au marcat pentru mine o adevarată “vânătoare de comori”. Aveam tot felul de indicii și de bucăți din hartă, însa tot timpul mai descopeream noi taine ale străbunilor, tradiții, locuri de demult, parcă uitate. În Contești am găsit primul artefact, primele indicii ale comorii, ale patrimoniului extraordinar al acestui pământ; primul pas către descoperirea tezaurului. România este ca o insulă plină de bogății, trebuie însa sa descoperi drumul si cheile de la cuferele cu comori. Dupa un proiect de cercetare de aproape 4 ani, am pus îmbinat toate indiciile descoperite. Acum cred că am harta aproape completă a comorii.\n\n- Ai călătorit foarte mult în România, vreo 6.000 de kilometri pentru a descoperi viaţa reală, oamenii dar şi specificul culinar al unor zone. Ai testat preparate tradiționale, ai făcut mii de fotografii. Azi eşti un partizan al gastronomiei autentice. Cât de profund ţi-a marcat viaţa această aventură?\n\n- Mă gândesc că România a fost binecuvantată de Dumnezeu atunci când văd vânatul pe câmp sau știucile, șalaul, racii, hribii, brânzeturile, mieii de Paște, porcii crescuți la țară, păsările de curte, crescute cu boabe, roșiile care pentru mine sunt printre cele mai bune din lume. Ca anecdotă, pot să vă povestesc că înainte să vin în România nu mâncam roșii pentru că mi se păreau absolut lipsite de gust. Acum, o ratatouille gătită cu roșii din grădina mea are cu adevărat gust. Memoria mea afectivă se trezește și mă trimite direct în copilarie când bunica mea gătea acest fel atât de simplu, dar atât de gustos. Cea de-a doua călătorie profesională este o evoluție în viața mea de cuisinier, un voiaj în regatul conștiintei. Timp de trei ani, mi-am concentrat efortul creator pe un nou proiect, născut la începutul acestei perioade, după cum vă povesteam, la Conțești. Știinta și pasiunea de a oferi oaspeților experiențe culinare cu produse exclusiv românești, este bazată pe o cercetare desfășurată în diferite zone ale țării. Am călătorit prin România, descoperind țărani, fermieri, ciobani, cunoscând trufele, caviarul și ciupercile românești, fiind astfel capabil de a îmi crea propriul microconcept – ferma cu animale domestice, legume și pomi fructiferi pe care am dezvoltat-o în apropierea râului Dâmbovița. Acolo am descoperit o a doua glie, la 40 de kilometri de București. A doua rădăcină, într-o câmpie foarte fertilă, cu o vedere frumoasă către Carpați. Pentru a ajunge la răspunsurile pe care le caut, am hotărât să îmi pun întrebări concrete de genul: Ce avem noi azi în farfurie?; Ce moștenire vom lăsa copiilor?; Poate exista o gastronomie românească autentică?\n\n- Eşti adeptul conceptului \"100% românesc\", un rezultat complex al mai multor ani de cercetări şi experienţe. Care este conţinutul acestuia?\n\n- Pot fi produsele autohtone transportate peste mări și țări? Produse de calitate, având marca pământului românesc, precum roșile, nucile, trufele, varietăți de paste, brânzeturi pot trece dincolo de granițele țării? Proiectul \"100% românesc\" militează tocmai pentru această recunoaștere internațională – produse de nișă, naturale, autentice. Acum se importă masiv din Grecia sau Turcia, de pildă. România însă are ingrediente extrem de diverse și bogate pentru gastronomie. Ele ar putea fi exportate către restaurantele Michelin oriunde în lume, și-ar putea găsi cu ușurinta locul în cele mai pretențioase restaurante de pe mapamond. Este timpul să luptăm pentru crearea de mărci DOC (Denumire de Origine Controlată) care vor certifica o identitate puternică – este nevoie de multă seriozitate, muncă susținută, disciplină și rigoare -, asa cum e toată munca în gastronomie, de altfel. Beneficiile pentru România se vor dovedi fabuloase… Nu am în vedere reinventarea unor rețete tradiționale, ci de a folosi și pune în valoare produsele locale, printr-o interpretare modernă, contemporană. Vedetele conceptului \"100%.ro\" sunt micii prducători și țăranii, acești prinți ai pământului. Ei sunt baza unei gastronomii adevărate, în special a gastronomiei românești. Soluția rămâne micro-agricultura sau produsele agricole provenite de la micro-ferme. Identitatea gastronomică a unui individ sau a unei țări se creionează prin intermediul abordării pluriculturale, prin discursul gastronomic și prin dezvoltarea personalizată a acestuia.\n\n- Se poate spune că experienţele româneşti ţi-au retrezit memoria afectivă a gustului din copilăria pe care ai petrecut-o în Franţa ?\n\n- Când mă plimb cu bicicleta pe drumurile de țară – și fac adesea asta – de cele mai multe ori neasfaltate, abandonate de fondurile publice, îmi amintesc de lumea copilariei mele. Și asta mă inspiră în crearea felurilor de mâncare și mă determină să spun că de fapt, până la urmă, e o adevarată fericire să stai departe de societatea de consum. Sunt atâtea efecte benefice. Nu există poluare, nici îngrășăminte chimice, poți admira sutele de hectare lăsate în pârloagă, berzele pe câmpuri, căprioarele care se aventurează departe de pădure și mai ales fluturii. De ce vorbesc despre fluturi ? Ei bine, e simplu. Am făcut această descoperire acum zece ani în Lozère, ținutul meu natal. Nu mai existau fluturi și această situație e una foarte gravă, deoarece fluturii sunt foarte sensibili la schimbările eco-climatului. Ei sunt primii care dispar din cauza îngrășămintelor chimice, a produselor toxice și în general a poluării. Acest lucru demonstrează că lanțul alimentației s-a rupt. Nu mai există fluturi, nici arici sau vipere și tot așa până ajungem, pe scara evoluției, până la noi, la oameni. Vă invit să descoperiți asta gândindu-vă la copilăria voastră. Amintiți-vă cum vă plăcea să alergați cu plasa de prins fluturi în mână. Veți constata că azi nu mai e posibil să faceți același lucru, ceea ce e înspăimântător.

Pământul era înainte sănătos, nu cunoscuse practic niciodată această agresiune chimică din partea cultivatorilor de cereale care sunt mai preocupați de dividendele lor decât de lumea pe care o lăsăm celor care ne vor urma.\n\n- Sunt românii sunt ospitalieri sau că aceasta este doar o legendă !\n\n-Cu siguranță da.

Campania internațională se numește Brand USA iar componentele ei au fost puse la punct anul trecut. Mesajul principal este că Statele Unite sunt deschise turiștilor din întreaga lume. Se preconizează ca intrările vizitatorilor străini în SUA să atingă cifra de 100 de milioane în perspectiva anilor 2021. În acest context Brand USA a fost, cum era de așteptat, vedeta celei de-a 45-a ediții a International POW WOW (IPW). Ne referim la cea mai importantă manifestare mondială de turism, găzduită în această vară la Las Vegas. Este pentru a doua oară în ultimii cinci ani. Strategia va fi implementată pe toate piețele țintă dar conține și o serie de priorități ce au în vedere piețele cu cel mai mare potențial pentru furnizarea de turiști. Astfel campania Brand USA prevede deschiderea de reprezentanțe proprii, altele decât Birourile de turism ale Statelor Unite -, în China, Brazilia, Mexic, India, Germania, Canada, Australia, Japonia și Marea Britanie. Sloganul campanei este în fapt o invitație: ”Descoperă acest pământ așa cum nu ai făcut-o niciodată până acum!”. Un rol important îl are Parteneriatul Brand USA cu faimoasa trupă Cirque du Soleil. Se speră ca acțiunile comune să atragă un număr sporit de turiști spre SUA, știut fiind cât de mulți fani are această trupă în lume. Un mare impact îl au melodia și clipul muzical ce o aduce în prim plan pe Rosanne Cash, o muziciană cunoscută pentru creațiile sale country, rock, roots și pop. Până acum a fost nominalizată de 12 ori la premiile Grammy și a primit unul dintre acestea. Spotul are toate atuurile atrăgând prin versurile optimiste și melodicitatea ușor de reținut, ambele sinetizând invitația de a veni pe un pământ sigur, cu mii de atracție și cu oameni prietenoși.\r\n\r\nAsaltul conferințelor de presă\r\n\r\nCa de obicei invitațiile de presă au constituit suportul pentru lansarea noutăților. ”The Transformers: The Ride-3D” ne-au onorat în mărime... naturală la prezentările Universal Studios Hollywood. Partea de marketing a funcționat foarte bine astfel că la niciun an personajele au devenit atracția numărul 1 a Californiei. Filmele produc multă adrenalină dar și mulți bani. Ca și celebrul Harry Potter, cu regatul său vrăjit. Cea mai nouă distracție este ”Despicable Me Minion Mayhem” care va fi lansat în 2014. Compania Sea World a dorit să amintească, printr-un mini-show cu pui de pinguini, animatori, scafandri și jucării cu animale făcute din materiale reciclabile culese din apele oceanului, că marchează începutul sărbătoririi a 50 de ani de existență. Evenimentele se derulează pe parcursul a 18 luni sub sloganul...”Sea of Surprises”. Cel mai nou show este ”Imperiul pinguinilor” de la Sea World Orlando. Vedeta celor 250 de pinguini care trăiesc în acest regat este... Puck. Prin ochii lui vizitatorii văd și înțeleg viața la Polul Sud.

În anul 2012 cele 11 parcuri tematice aparținând de Sea World au atras peste 24 de milioane de vizitatori.\r\n\r\nSenzații tari am trăit și la întâlnirea cu reprezentanții Spaceport America. Amplasat în sudul statului New Mexico în apropierea localității Las Croces el este primul aeroport spațial privat din lume. De aici vom zbura în spațiul extraterestru în calitate de turiști. Costul unei excursii este de aproximativ de 200.000 de dolari. Până în prezent au fost plătite 600 de rezervări. Pe lista de așteptare se află încă... 5.000 de viitori turiști spațiali. Primul zbor este anunțat pentru 2014 - ne-a precizat Aaron Prescott, business operations manager al New Mexico Spaceport Authority. Toate experimentele legate de zbor, mai mult sau mai puțin secrete au loc aici.\r\n\r\nPână la prima excursie vizitatorii se pot acomoda și pregăti în simulatoarele de zbor, se pot documenta despre istoria lansării navetelor spațiale frecventând sălile multimedia ale clădirii centrale unde se află și Muzeul Cosmos. Pe parcursul a șase ore poți trăi experiențe unicat. Inițiativa creării aeroport spațial privat aparține celebrului miliardar Charles Bronson, proprietar, printre altele, al companiei Virgin Galactic.\r\n\r\nȘi întâlnirea cu reprezentanții Farmers Market a fost la fel de interesantă. Ideea a fost lansată în 1880 de către Arthur Gilmore Freemont care s-a gândit să organizeze o piață pentru produsele fermierilor. În 1934 au fost puse bazele unei piețe mobile de către 18 fermieri și vânzători. Mai aflăm că, în 1960, Farmers Market devenea atracția turistică nr.1 din Los Angeles. Dacă în 1980 aici funcționau 120 de magazine ale producătorilor azi, împreună cu cele din Mall-ul din vecinătate ele au ajuns la circa 1.000. Designerii și arhitecții pun la cale un nou concept comercial ce are în centru produsele naturale ale fermierilor de la Farmers Market. El va marca, în 2014, 80 de ani de funcționare continuă.\r\n\r\nUn centru al business-ului mondial\r\n\r\nRossi Ralenkotter, președintele Las Vegas Convention & VisitorAuthority (LVCVA), a accentuat în întâlnirile sale, cu cei circa 500 de jurnaliști și editori de travel, că Las Vegas avansează rapid spre statutul de centru al business-ului mondial prin care va întrece reputația de până acum, aceea de capitală al cazinourilor și jocurilor de noroc. Trend-ul este susținut de investițiile uriașe făcute pentru remodelarea spațiului urban, ce vor depăși 23 de miliarde de dolari. Planul inovator are în centrul său construcția unui cartier concentrat care va purta numele de Las Vegas Global Business. O altă investiție - aproximativ 2 miliarde de dolari -, prevede conectarea acestuia cu celebrele Streep Boulevard și Las Vegas Convention Center. Astfel orașul își va întări poziția de lider mondial pe segmentul leisure și business. În același context Roger Dow, președintele US Travel Association, remarca la rândul său că ”Această ediție a IPW a fost o manifestare de mare succes. Ea a atras peste 6.000 de participanți ce au ocupat 1.300 de standuri. În plus, ați observat, este pentru prima dată când IPW și-a stabilit agenda pentru următorii 7 ani. Printre noile noastre gazde se numără Chicago, anul viitor, Washington DC și Denver”.\r\n\r\nDar statul Nevada concentrează într-un uriaș deșert atracții turistice fabuloase.

Prezentul nu confirmă acea dorință care s-ar fi dorit să devină o strategie. Recent, importând o parte din slogan, s-a lansat ideea cum că turismul balnear ar fi prioritatea numărul 1, în strategia turismului României.\r\n
![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Herculane-balnear-1.jpg\" "\\"Herculane")
Pe această rută de promovare a pornit optimistă Maria Grapini, care se ocupă, ca ministru delegat și de dezvoltarea turismului. Pentru a vedea și a aprofunda situația reală din țară domnia sa a plecat în mai multe vizite de documentare prin stațiunile balneare românești. Cea care ia atras atenția cel mai mult - e și normal datorită potențialului istoric fabulos pe care-l deține -, este Băile Herculane. Într-o întâlnire cu administrația locală, condusă de primarul Nicușor Vasilescu, ministru Grapini s-a lansat în afirmații de genul: ”Doresc ca Băile Herculane să cunoască în următorii patru ani, un trend crescător, rapid și sustenabil din punct de vedere al atragerii de turiști. Ținta mea este ca stațiunea să revină în forță pe harta europeană a turismului! ” În viziunea domniei sale prioritare sunt proiectele de reabilitare a drumurilor, a izvoarelor termale, atragerea de investitori şi promovare prin valorificarea legendelor locale. În legătură cu ultimul aspect, Maria Grapini a menționat că a iniţiat o acţiune, împreună cu preşedinţii consiliilor judeţene şi cu primarii reşedinţelor de judeţ de inventariere a tot ceea ce poate fi valorificat din punct de vedere turistic. Un semnal concret a primit din partea scriitorului Dorin Bălteanu care a sugerat că una dintre cărțile sale „Herculane – arc peste timp”, ar putea fi un punct de documentare pentru elaborarea noilor proiecte de promovare a staţiunii de pe Valea Cernei.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Herculane-Elevi.jpg\" "\\"Herculane")
Primarul Nicuşor Vasilescu, ne-a declarat în același context că Băile Herculane vor aniversa în acest an 1860 de ani de la prima atestare, fiind una dintre cele mai vechi stașiuni balneare ale lumii. De aceea e nevoie de o susținere mai concentrată pentru refacerea acesteia. ”Cele mai urgente probleme sunt cele legate de infrastructură, continuarea lucrărilor de reabilitare a drumurilor, finalizarea celor de la Vila Elisabeta, a cinematografului şi, bineînţeles celelalte proiecte cuprinse în Planul Integrat de Dezvoltare Urbană elaborat de echipa de experţi a Programului Naţiunilor Unite de Dezvoltare (PNUD)”.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Herculane-germani.jpg\" "\\"Herculane")
\r\n\r\nVino să vezi !\r\n\r\nDe promovarea directă a potențialului balnear românesc este preocupată și doamna Susanne Kastner, Preşedinta Comisiei de Apărare şi a Grupului de prietenie româno - germană din Parlamentul Germaniei. Totodată este şi Preşedinta fundaţiei Rumaenien – Soforthilfe e.V. activă în zona Banatului, calitate în care a efectuat la Herculane o vizita împreună cu un grup de 43 de invitați din Germania. Susanne Kastner este o adevărată prietenă a României. Domnia sa luptă pentru demontarea clişeelor şi a imaginii negative pe care mai persistă în rândul germanilor despre România. Iar acest lucru, este convinsă, nu poate fi realizat decât prin vizite la faţa locului cu cât mai mulţi germani, specialiști în turism ori formatori de opinie. Doamna Kastner a apreciat investițiile care au transformat radical hotelurile Diana și Afrodita, ce oferă servicii turistice la nivelul celor practicate în Uniunea Europeană.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Herculane-Grapini2.jpg\" "\\"Herculane")
\r\n\r\nEvenimentele pot face diferența\r\n\r\nDa, este o tendință normală. Când deții echipamente hoteliere de calitate, printre care și săli de conferințe cu dotări de top, poți aborda cu succes segementul de evenimente. Nu întâmpător la Hotelul Diana (administrat de dr. ing. Ionel Catrinoiu), profesorul Alexandru Mironov şi astronomul Cătălin Beldea de la revista Ştiinţă şi Tehnică au captivat elevi şi profesori de la Liceul Hercules din Băile Herculane şi de la liceele din judeţ, turişti şi localnici. Aici a fost organizat un program de observare astronomică şi realizare de astrofotografii cu cerul înstelat deasupra munților din împrejurimi. Proiectul, ce aparține lui Dorin Bălteanu, a atras atenția prin unicitatea și potențialul său nu numai hotelierilor ci și Inspectoratul Şcolar Judeţean Caraş Severin.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Herculane-observator.jpg\" "\\"Herculane")
\r\n\r\nAlexandru Mironov a expus în binecunoscutul stil captivant proiectul Millenium prin care oamenii de ştiinţă încearcă să răspundă unor provocări ale civilizaţiei umane aflate într-un moment de răscruce în acest mileniu al treilea. Extinderea ariei de locuire urbană la nivel oceanic şi cosmic precum şi proiecte pentru folosirea de noi resurse energetice - sunt câteva din proiectele mileniului următor când e posibil ca omul să ajungă să facă turism în aşezările umane din spaţiul cosmic. Luna şi Marte sunt primele avanposturi ce se doresc a fi „colonizate”. Cătălin Beldea, singurul român premiat de NASA cu distincţia „NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day”, pentru astrofotografia realizată în cadrul expediţiei „Eclipsa de la miezul nopţii, eclipsă în Laponia” (desfăşurată în Finlanda între 30 mai şi 3 iunie 2012), a povestit celor prezenţi, peripeţiile lui ECLIPSER I. Experimentul, unicul din lume reuşit, a constat din lansarea unui balon din nord-estul Australiei la 25 de kilometri pentru realizarea de fotografii şi filme a eclipsei totale de Soare din 14 noiembrie 2012. După vizionarea spectaculosului film a urmat un atractiv program de observări şi fotografii astrale, o premieră la Băile Herculane. El s-a desfăşurat în două părţi, cel de observare a Soarelui şi a petelor solare, respectiv cel nocturn, cu observarea Lunii cu craterele sale şi locul de aselenizare a echipajului Apollo 11 şi observarea planetei Saturn cu inelele sale şi cu patru din sateliţii săi.

Prezentul nu confirmă acea dorință care s-ar fi dorit să devină o strategie. Recent, importând o parte din slogan, s-a lansat ideea cum că turismul balnear ar fi prioritatea numărul 1, în strategia turismului României.\n Pe această rută de promovare a pornit optimistă Maria Grapini, care se ocupă, ca ministru delegat și de dezvoltarea turismului. Pentru a vedea și a aprofunda situația reală din țară domnia sa a plecat în mai multe vizite de documentare prin stațiunile balneare românești. Cea care ia atras atenția cel mai mult - e și normal datorită potențialului istoric fabulos pe care-l deține -, este Băile Herculane. Într-o întâlnire cu administrația locală, condusă de primarul Nicușor Vasilescu, ministru Grapini s-a lansat în afirmații de genul: ”Doresc ca Băile Herculane să cunoască în următorii patru ani, un trend crescător, rapid și sustenabil din punct de vedere al atragerii de turiști. Ținta mea este ca stațiunea să revină în forță pe harta europeană a turismului! ” În viziunea domniei sale prioritare sunt proiectele de reabilitare a drumurilor, a izvoarelor termale, atragerea de investitori şi promovare prin valorificarea legendelor locale. În legătură cu ultimul aspect, Maria Grapini a menționat că a iniţiat o acţiune, împreună cu preşedinţii consiliilor judeţene şi cu primarii reşedinţelor de judeţ de inventariere a tot ceea ce poate fi valorificat din punct de vedere turistic. Un semnal concret a primit din partea scriitorului Dorin Bălteanu care a sugerat că una dintre cărțile sale „Herculane – arc peste timp”, ar putea fi un punct de documentare pentru elaborarea noilor proiecte de promovare a staţiunii de pe Valea Cernei.\n Primarul Nicuşor Vasilescu, ne-a declarat în același context că Băile Herculane vor aniversa în acest an 1860 de ani de la prima atestare, fiind una dintre cele mai vechi stașiuni balneare ale lumii. De aceea e nevoie de o susținere mai concentrată pentru refacerea acesteia. ”Cele mai urgente probleme sunt cele legate de infrastructură, continuarea lucrărilor de reabilitare a drumurilor, finalizarea celor de la Vila Elisabeta, a cinematografului şi, bineînţeles celelalte proiecte cuprinse în Planul Integrat de Dezvoltare Urbană elaborat de echipa de experţi a Programului Naţiunilor Unite de Dezvoltare (PNUD)”.\n\n\nVino să vezi !\n\nDe promovarea directă a potențialului balnear românesc este preocupată și doamna Susanne Kastner, Preşedinta Comisiei de Apărare şi a Grupului de prietenie româno - germană din Parlamentul Germaniei. Totodată este şi Preşedinta fundaţiei Rumaenien – Soforthilfe e.V. activă în zona Banatului, calitate în care a efectuat la Herculane o vizita împreună cu un grup de 43 de invitați din Germania. Susanne Kastner este o adevărată prietenă a României. Domnia sa luptă pentru demontarea clişeelor şi a imaginii negative pe care mai persistă în rândul germanilor despre România. Iar acest lucru, este convinsă, nu poate fi realizat decât prin vizite la faţa locului cu cât mai mulţi germani, specialiști în turism ori formatori de opinie. Doamna Kastner a apreciat investițiile care au transformat radical hotelurile Diana și Afrodita, ce oferă servicii turistice la nivelul celor practicate în Uniunea Europeană.\n\n\nEvenimentele pot face diferența\n\nDa, este o tendință normală. Când deții echipamente hoteliere de calitate, printre care și săli de conferințe cu dotări de top, poți aborda cu succes segementul de evenimente. Nu întâmpător la Hotelul Diana (administrat de dr. ing. Ionel Catrinoiu), profesorul Alexandru Mironov şi astronomul Cătălin Beldea de la revista Ştiinţă şi Tehnică au captivat elevi şi profesori de la Liceul Hercules din Băile Herculane şi de la liceele din judeţ, turişti şi localnici. Aici a fost organizat un program de observare astronomică şi realizare de astrofotografii cu cerul înstelat deasupra munților din împrejurimi. Proiectul, ce aparține lui Dorin Bălteanu, a atras atenția prin unicitatea și potențialul său nu numai hotelierilor ci și Inspectoratul Şcolar Judeţean Caraş Severin.\n\n\nAlexandru Mironov a expus în binecunoscutul stil captivant proiectul Millenium prin care oamenii de ştiinţă încearcă să răspundă unor provocări ale civilizaţiei umane aflate într-un moment de răscruce în acest mileniu al treilea. Extinderea ariei de locuire urbană la nivel oceanic şi cosmic precum şi proiecte pentru folosirea de noi resurse energetice - sunt câteva din proiectele mileniului următor când e posibil ca omul să ajungă să facă turism în aşezările umane din spaţiul cosmic. Luna şi Marte sunt primele avanposturi ce se doresc a fi „colonizate”. Cătălin Beldea, singurul român premiat de NASA cu distincţia „NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day”, pentru astrofotografia realizată în cadrul expediţiei „Eclipsa de la miezul nopţii, eclipsă în Laponia” (desfăşurată în Finlanda între 30 mai şi 3 iunie 2012), a povestit celor prezenţi, peripeţiile lui ECLIPSER I. Experimentul, unicul din lume reuşit, a constat din lansarea unui balon din nord-estul Australiei la 25 de kilometri pentru realizarea de fotografii şi filme a eclipsei totale de Soare din 14 noiembrie 2012. După vizionarea spectaculosului film a urmat un atractiv program de observări şi fotografii astrale, o premieră la Băile Herculane. El s-a desfăşurat în două părţi, cel de observare a Soarelui şi a petelor solare, respectiv cel nocturn, cu observarea Lunii cu craterele sale şi locul de aselenizare a echipajului Apollo 11 şi observarea planetei Saturn cu inelele sale şi cu patru din sateliţii săi.

Suntem martorii unei mari revoluții în travel. În strategia ei România trebuie să țină cont de avantajele comparative și competitive. România este în inima Europei, aici lucrurile sunt încă naturale. Ai senzația că ești într-un loc neatins, ceea nu găsești în Europa, unde orașele sunt structurate ca niște muzee. Românii sunt primitori, când vii aici simți că ești binevenit. Toate țările au resurse, însă oamenii sunt cei mai importanți\" - este de părere Taleb Rifai, secretarul general al Organizației Mondiale a Turismului (OMT). Declarația a fost făcută la Conferința Internațională de Turism ce s-a desfășurat la Palatul Parlamentului din București sub genericul ”Identifying the competitive advantage of a tourist destination”. Potrivit acestuia, România a fost vizitată în 2012 de 1,6 milioane de străini, iar valoarea medie a sumelor cheltuite pe teritoriul țării noastre se ridică la circa 780 de euro de persoană per sejur.\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\n\r\nInterviul și filmul de promovare cu prințul Charles au produs o puternică impresie participanților străini - circa 250 -, printre care s-au numărat și ambasadori acredați la București. Răzvan Filipescu, președintele ANT, a moderat atent punând în valoare o parte din atuurile României. Ministrul Maria Grapini a pus accentul pe bogăția culturală a țării noastre, pe valorile naționale înscrise în patrimoniul umanității și pe determinarea domniei sale de a revitaliza turismul românesc. Rovana Plumb, ministrul Mediului a amintit de un acord comun dezvoltat de cele două ministere. E vorba de un plan, care prevede, în cadrul strategiei Munților Carpați, identificarea, protejarea și promovarea a zece zone montane, ca destinații ecoturistice. O șarjă de umor sănătos a adus primarul Sorin Oprescu. El a afirmat că Bucureștiul se poate alătura cu oferta sa turistică marilor capitale ale lumii căci are toate ”condimentele” unei mari metropole. Asta înseamnă să-ți iubești orașul și să gândești pozitiv. Conferința a prilejuit și semnarea de către reprezentanții industriei turistice din țara noastră a Declarației de la București privind aderarea la ”Codul de etici în turism al OMT”.\r\n\r\nManifestarea internațională a fost urmată de un Infotrip, un fel de rezumat de lux al atracțiilor turistice ale țării noastre. Documentarea celor circa 50 de jurnaliști străini și români a debutat în Delta Dunării. Tulcea a impresionat prin Muzeul Ecoturistic, cu acvariul său unicat și cu mostrele de hrană naturală- cu accent firesc pe cele de pescărie -, de folclorul local, românesc și lipovean.\r\n\r\nPasul următor a fost Valea Prahovei. Nu s-a înțeles prea bine ce s-a dorit a promova prin deplasarea spre Cota 1400. Poate doar telegondolele... roz. Castelele Peleș și Bran au fost o revelație cel puțin fotografică pentru mulți dintre invitați. După vizita celui din urmă am receptat nedumerirea colegilor străini. Asta-i tot? Se pare că noii săi administratori nu reușesc să se ridice la nivelul faimei internaționale a acestuia. Păcat, toată lumea pierde căci peisajul și povesta nu sunt de ajuns.\r\n\r\nBrașovul a impresionat. Nu și renumitul hotelul ARO. E deja obosit, cu personal blazat. Cu siguranță stelele trebuie lustruite, altfel va resimți dur concurența noilor complexe apărute la poalele Tâmpei. O excepțională lecție de istorie și turism a aparținut profesorului Vasile Oltean, directorul Muzeului Șcheii Brașovului, unde a funcționat prima Școală românească din țara noastră. Bula Papală din 1399 confirma existența acestui lăcaș de cult și educație ortodoxă la Brașov. Jurnaliștii străini - polonezi, indieni, evrei, coreeni, germani, englezi, italieni, cehi -, au rămas mirați când au aflat ce învățau copii românilor în secolul al XVI-lea. Noi eram în Europa, știam și învățam despre ea... Ei au mai aflat că muzeul deține peste 6.000 de volume originale de carte veche dintre care aproape 3.000 au fost inventariate. Păcat că, și am înțeles tristețea directorului Oltean, acest obiectiv cultural nu figurează în circuitele turistice ale travel agenților și, ca urmare, puțini vizitatori îi trec pragul.\r\n\r\nPrejmerul a fost următorul obiectiv. Unul cu valoare de patrimoniu UNESCO, o continuare firească a modelului de conviețuire pe pământul Transilvaniei. Sighișoara s-a înscris natural în traseu, cu ritualul medieval susținut de toboșari, gorniști și garda de onoare. Vizita de la Salina Turda a întrecut așteptările jurnaliștilor. Gazdele s-au pregătit temeinic, tradițional și profesional, suprinzând pe cei prezenți cu un spectacol folcloric oferit de Ansamblul de copii al...Salinei. S-a potrivit de minune cu tradiționalele plăcinte ardelenești cu varză sau cu ceapă. La alegere. Ce e bun, e bun și place!\r\n\r\nDacă nu puteți dormi în arșița nopților de august, vă recomandăm să dați o fugă la Cetatea Alba Iulia. Feeria nopților răcorite de istorie este unică. Noi am fost răsfățați cu ”onorul” de noapte al gărzii cetății, cu minunații ei cai negrii, uniforme de epocă și tulnicărese. De salve de tun n-am avut parte, că deh, locuitorii dormeau deja. Am călătorit într-un spațiu recreat cu fonduri europene, multă muncă și imaginație. Turul de documentare de a doua zi a fost dedicat Fortificației stelare de tip Vauban, vedeta cetății. Toți au spus - mai mult de atât nu se poate. Cu toate acestea în drum spre București ne-am împiedicat de Muzeul Astra și de Sibiu. Intrat în conștiința turistului european orașul se oferă vizitatorilor ca un oracol... deschis - muzee, clădiri istorice, gastronomie, teatru, povești și mai ales muncă profesionistă prin care se păstrează în continuare acest tezaur.\r\n\r\nN-am ratat nici Cozia, bijuteria coroanei domnitorului Mircea cel Bătrân, frumoasă ca o zână a munților. În prezența ei nu poți decît să te reculegi și să vrei să fii mai bun. Poate că asta au simțit ziariștii de la El Pais, prestigios cotidian spaniol, care obsedați să găsească peste tot țigani și să-i fotografieze, au ratat întâlnirea cu sufletul și adevăratele întâmplări românești. Asta e! Poate o vor face data viitoare!\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n','TALEB RIFAI: ”România este o destinație naturală !”, TENDINTE nr.112-113','','publish','open','open','','taleb-rifai-romania-este-o-destinatie-naturala-tendinte-nr-112-113','','','2013-09-02 13:20:32','2013-09-02 11:20:32','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2345',0,'post','',0),(2346,1,'2013-09-02 13:19:10','2013-09-02 11:19:10','','omt 1','','inherit','open','open','','omt-1','','','2013-09-02 13:19:10','2013-09-02 11:19:10','',2345,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/omt-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2347,1,'2013-09-02 13:19:11','2013-09-02 11:19:11','','omt 863','','inherit','open','open','','omt-863','','','2013-09-02 13:19:11','2013-09-02 11:19:11','',2345,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/omt-863.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2348,1,'2013-09-02 13:19:12','2013-09-02 11:19:12','','omt 865','','inherit','open','open','','omt-865','','','2013-09-02 13:19:12','2013-09-02 11:19:12','',2345,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/omt-865.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2349,1,'2013-09-02 13:19:13','2013-09-02 11:19:13','','omt 893','','inherit','open','open','','omt-893','','','2013-09-02 13:19:13','2013-09-02 11:19:13','',2345,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/omt-893.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2350,1,'2013-09-02 13:19:14','2013-09-02 11:19:14','','omt 956','','inherit','open','open','','omt-956','','','2013-09-02 13:19:14','2013-09-02 11:19:14','',2345,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/omt-956.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2351,1,'2013-09-02 13:19:15','2013-09-02 11:19:15','','omt 999','','inherit','open','open','','omt-999','','','2013-09-02 13:19:15','2013-09-02 11:19:15','',2345,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/omt-999.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2352,1,'2013-09-02 13:19:16','2013-09-02 11:19:16','','omt engl','','inherit','open','open','','omt-engl','','','2013-09-02 13:19:16','2013-09-02 11:19:16','',2345,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/omt-engl.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2353,1,'2013-09-02 13:19:17','2013-09-02 11:19:17','','OMT Rifai si Grapini','','inherit','open','open','','omt-rifai-si-grapini','','','2013-09-02 13:19:17','2013-09-02 11:19:17','',2345,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/OMT-Rifai-si-Grapini.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2354,1,'2013-09-02 13:19:46','2013-09-02 11:19:46','TALEB RIFAI: ”România este o destinație naturală !”\n\n”Nu e important ceea ce deții ci ceea ce faci cu ceea ce ai.

Păcat că, și am înțeles tristețea directorului Oltean, acest obiectiv cultural nu figurează în circuitele turistice ale travel agenților și, ca urmare, puțini vizitatori îi trec pragul.\n\nPrejmerul a fost următorul obiectiv. Unul cu valoare de patrimoniu UNESCO, o continuare firească a modelului de conviețuire pe pământul Transilvaniei. Sighișoara s-a înscris natural în traseu, cu ritualul medieval susținut de toboșari, gorniști și garda de onoare. Vizita de la Salina Turda a întrecut așteptările jurnaliștilor. Gazdele s-au pregătit temeinic, tradițional și profesional, suprinzând pe cei prezenți cu un spectacol folcloric oferit de Ansamblul de copii al...Salinei. S-a potrivit de minune cu tradiționalele plăcinte ardelenești cu varză sau cu ceapă. La alegere. Ce e bun, e bun și place!\n\nDacă nu puteți dormi în arșița nopților de august, vă recomandăm să dați o fugă la Cetatea Alba Iulia. Feeria nopților răcorite de istorie este unică. Noi am fost răsfățați cu ”onorul” de noapte al gărzii cetății, cu minunații ei cai negrii, uniforme de epocă și tulnicărese. De salve de tun n-am avut parte, că deh, locuitorii dormeau deja. Am călătorit într-un spațiu recreat cu fonduri europene, multă muncă și imaginație. Turul de documentare de a doua zi a fost dedicat Fortificației stelare de tip Vauban, vedeta cetății. Toți au spus - mai mult de atât nu se poate. Cu toate acestea în drum spre București ne-am împiedicat de Muzeul Astra și de Sibiu. Intrat în conștiința turistului european orașul se oferă vizitatorilor ca un oracol... deschis - muzee, clădiri istorice, gastronomie, teatru, povești și mai ales muncă profesionistă prin care se păstrează în continuare acest tezaur.\n\nN-am ratat nici Cozia, bijuteria coroanei domnitorului Mircea cel Bătrân, frumoasă ca o zână a munților. În prezența ei nu poți decît să te reculegi și să vrei să fii mai bun. Poate că asta au simțit ziariștii de la El Pais, prestigios cotidian spaniol, care obsedați să găsească peste tot țigani și să-i fotografieze, au ratat întâlnirea cu sufletul și adevăratele întâmplări românești. Asta e! Poate o vor face data viitoare!\n\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\n','TALEB RIFAI: ”România este o destinație naturală !”, TENDINTE nr.112-113','','inherit','open','open','','2345-revision','','','2013-09-02 13:19:46','2013-09-02 11:19:46','',2345,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2013/09/02/2345-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2372,1,'2013-09-16 12:12:53','2013-09-16 10:12:53','','english-2','','inherit','open','open','','english-2-2','','','2013-09-16 12:12:53','2013-09-16 10:12:53','',2284,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/english-21.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2356,1,'2013-09-02 13:27:06','2013-09-02 11:27:06','OTOPENI: Nominalizare la Routes Europe Awards\r\n\r\nAeroportul Internaţional Henri Coandă Bucureşti (AIHCB) a fost nominalizat de către experţii companiilor aeriene la premiile Routes Europe Awards 2013.

S-a născut în 1968 la Lyon, capitala gastronomiei franceze. Ucenicia și-a făcut-o la restaurantul l\'Haricot, din acest oraș, condus de unchiul său, un apreciat bucătar. A absolvit Școala Hotelieră Macon en Saone et Loire, în 1985. Deține o experiență în gastronomie de circa 30 de ani, câștigată în restaurante cotate între 1 și 3 stele Michelin de pe întregul mapamond (Franța, Elveția, Marea Britanie, Uruguay, Germania etc). A asigurat consultanța pe partea de F&B pentru compania Gulf Air din Bahrein (prima clasă), respectiv pentru Georges Blanc din Vonnas, pentru navele de croazieră etc.\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\n\nCel mai bun chef din România (2007), Golden Chef București (2009) sunt doar două dintre distincțiile obținute în țara noastră. Deține o fermă la Conțești (județul Dâmbovița), unde dezvoltă concepte de pionerat dar și activități comerciale.\n\n- Ai lucrat pe mapamond în mai multe restaurante cotate de la 1 şi 3 stele Michelin. Cred că atunci când ai venit în România aveai un geamantan plin de entuziasm. Peste numai câţiva ani erai la un pas de plecare. Care e distanţa dintre aşteptările tale şi realitatea cu care te-ai întâlnit?\n\n- Cu toată experiența mea, am venit în România pentru proiectul Heritage. A fost o provocare uriașă, aceea de a crea un punct gastronomic de referință în Europa de Est. A fost primul restaurant haute cuisine la București, într-o locație bine aleasă, în inima Micului Paris. Provocarea a constat și în a construi de la zero un concept unic, proiectarea restaurantului, designul și funcționalitatea bucătăriei, selectarea și instruirea personalului, identificarea și stabilirea furnizorilor de produse, într-un final crearea unui limbaj comun gastronomic în România, la standard Michelin. A fost dorința mea de a aduce la București experiențe culinare gastronomice de acest nivel. De a promova haute cuisine așa cum o practicăm în Franța, Germania, Elveția, Hong Kong, în toate locațiile din lume unde regăsim recomandările faimosului ghid Michelin.\n\n- După ce ai fost Chef sau ai oferit consultanţă pentru o serie de restaurante din Bucureşti te-ai convertit în investitor şi producător... agricol la Conţeşti. La circa 40 de kilometri de Capitală, ţi-ai creat o fermă a gustului. Un hobby, sau e ceva mai mult ?\n\n- Aici a început cea de-a doua călătorie a vieții mele, inspirată de Contești, de tot ceea ce am descoperit și de micro-climatul pe care l-am creat aici. Am descoperit că în România sunt atat de multe produse locale autentice extraordinare pentru haute-cuisine, dar precum aurul verde nedescoperit și încă neștiut de mulți dintre noi. Ultimii ani au marcat pentru mine o adevarată “vânătoare de comori”. Aveam tot felul de indicii și de bucăți din hartă, însa tot timpul mai descopeream noi taine ale străbunilor, tradiții, locuri de demult, parcă uitate. În Contești am găsit primul artefact, primele indicii ale comorii, ale patrimoniului extraordinar al acestui pământ; primul pas către descoperirea tezaurului. România este ca o insulă plină de bogății, trebuie însa sa descoperi drumul si cheile de la cuferele cu comori. Dupa un proiect de cercetare de aproape 4 ani, am pus îmbinat toate indiciile descoperite. Acum cred că am harta aproape completă a comorii.\n\n- Ai călătorit foarte mult în România, vreo 6.000 de kilometri pentru a descoperi viaţa reală, oamenii dar şi specificul culinar al unor zone. Ai testat preparate tradiționale, ai făcut mii de fotografii. Azi eşti un partizan al gastronomiei autentice. Cât de profund ţi-a marcat viaţa această aventură?\n\n- Mă gândesc că România a fost binecuvantată de Dumnezeu atunci când văd vânatul pe câmp sau știucile, șalaul, racii, hribii, brânzeturile, mieii de Paște, porcii crescuți la țară, păsările de curte, crescute cu boabe, roșiile care pentru mine sunt printre cele mai bune din lume. Ca anecdotă, pot să vă povestesc că înainte să vin în România nu mâncam roșii pentru că mi se păreau absolut lipsite de gust. Acum, o ratatouille gătită cu roșii din grădina mea are cu adevărat gust. Memoria mea afectivă se trezește și mă trimite direct în copilarie când bunica mea gătea acest fel atât de simplu, dar atât de gustos. Cea de-a doua călătorie profesională este o evoluție în viața mea de cuisinier, un voiaj în regatul conștiintei. Timp de trei ani, mi-am concentrat efortul creator pe un nou proiect, născut la începutul acestei perioade, după cum vă povesteam, la Conțești. Știinta și pasiunea de a oferi oaspeților experiențe culinare cu produse exclusiv românești, este bazată pe o cercetare desfășurată în diferite zone ale țării. Am călătorit prin România, descoperind țărani, fermieri, ciobani, cunoscând trufele, caviarul și ciupercile românești, fiind astfel capabil de a îmi crea propriul microconcept – ferma cu animale domestice, legume și pomi fructiferi pe care am dezvoltat-o în apropierea râului Dâmbovița. Acolo am descoperit o a doua glie, la 40 de kilometri de București. A doua rădăcină, într-o câmpie foarte fertilă, cu o vedere frumoasă către Carpați. Pentru a ajunge la răspunsurile pe care le caut, am hotărât să îmi pun întrebări concrete de genul: Ce avem noi azi în farfurie?; Ce moștenire vom lăsa copiilor?; Poate exista o gastronomie românească autentică?\n\n- Eşti adeptul conceptului \"100% românesc\", un rezultat complex al mai multor ani de cercetări şi experienţe. Care este conţinutul acestuia?\n\n- Pot fi produsele autohtone transportate peste mări și țări? Produse de calitate, având marca pământului românesc, precum roșile, nucile, trufele, varietăți de paste, brânzeturi pot trece dincolo de granițele țării? Proiectul \"100% românesc\" militează tocmai pentru această recunoaștere internațională – produse de nișă, naturale, autentice. Acum se importă masiv din Grecia sau Turcia, de pildă. România însă are ingrediente extrem de diverse și bogate pentru gastronomie. Ele ar putea fi exportate către restaurantele Michelin oriunde în lume, și-ar putea găsi cu ușurinta locul în cele mai pretențioase restaurante de pe mapamond. Este timpul să luptăm pentru crearea de mărci DOC (Denumire de Origine Controlată) care vor certifica o identitate puternică – este nevoie de multă seriozitate, muncă susținută, disciplină și rigoare -, asa cum e toată munca în gastronomie, de altfel. Beneficiile pentru România se vor dovedi fabuloase… Nu am în vedere reinventarea unor rețete tradiționale, ci de a folosi și pune în valoare produsele locale, printr-o interpretare modernă, contemporană. Vedetele conceptului \"100%.ro\" sunt micii prducători și țăranii, acești prinți ai pământului. Ei sunt baza unei gastronomii adevărate, în special a gastronomiei românești. Soluția rămâne micro-agricultura sau produsele agricole provenite de la micro-ferme. Identitatea gastronomică a unui individ sau a unei țări se creionează prin intermediul abordării pluriculturale, prin discursul gastronomic și prin dezvoltarea personalizată a acestuia.\n\n- Se poate spune că experienţele româneşti ţi-au retrezit memoria afectivă a gustului din copilăria pe care ai petrecut-o în Franţa ?\n\n- Când mă plimb cu bicicleta pe drumurile de țară – și fac adesea asta – de cele mai multe ori neasfaltate, abandonate de fondurile publice, îmi amintesc de lumea copilariei mele. Și asta mă inspiră în crearea felurilor de mâncare și mă determină să spun că de fapt, până la urmă, e o adevarată fericire să stai departe de societatea de consum. Sunt atâtea efecte benefice. Nu există poluare, nici îngrășăminte chimice, poți admira sutele de hectare lăsate în pârloagă, berzele pe câmpuri, căprioarele care se aventurează departe de pădure și mai ales fluturii. De ce vorbesc despre fluturi ? Ei bine, e simplu. Am făcut această descoperire acum zece ani în Lozère, ținutul meu natal. Nu mai existau fluturi și această situație e una foarte gravă, deoarece fluturii sunt foarte sensibili la schimbările eco-climatului. Ei sunt primii care dispar din cauza îngrășămintelor chimice, a produselor toxice și în general a poluării. Acest lucru demonstrează că lanțul alimentației s-a rupt. Nu mai există fluturi, nici arici sau vipere și tot așa până ajungem, pe scara evoluției, până la noi, la oameni. Vă invit să descoperiți asta gândindu-vă la copilăria voastră. Amintiți-vă cum vă plăcea să alergați cu plasa de prins fluturi în mână. Veți constata că azi nu mai e posibil să faceți același lucru, ceea ce e înspăimântător. Tot ceea ce descoperim ca fiind negativ trebuie schimbat în pozitiv. Pământul era înainte sănătos, nu cunoscuse practic niciodată această agresiune chimică din partea cultivatorilor de cereale care sunt mai preocupați de dividendele lor decât de lumea pe care o lăsăm celor care ne vor urma.\n\n- Sunt românii sunt ospitalieri sau că aceasta este doar o legendă !\n\n-Cu siguranță da. Aveți încredere în țăranii voștri. Fiți pionieri și în zece ani veți fi copiați de alte țări. Faceți turism ecologic, căci aceasta e adevărata rețetă a turismului astăzi. Copiii nu pot fi educați mai bine altundeva decât la țară, în preajma animalelor de fermă. Aici își pot descoperi rădăcinile și originile. Țăranii vor fi încântați să vă primească pentru că sunt oameni primitori și veseli în ciuda condițiilor lor de viață spartane. Am descoperit oameni deschiși, primitori, binevoitori, încântați de a deschide porțile caselor lor și de a te primi cu inima voioasă și bucate pe masă – aceste comori de care vă povesteam. Mulțumită lor le-am descoperit.\n\n- Cât de mult s-ar putea individualiza arta noastră culinară, prin promovarea unor mărci DOC?\n\n- Bucureștiul a fost supranumit cândva “Micul Paris”. De ce să nu creem Micul Rungis? O piață de desfacere precum în Rungis, aproape de Paris. Eu cred că România are capacitatea de a exporta produse de calitate, în loc să importe, are șansa de a avea produse minunate. Crearea de mărci DOC (Denumire de Origine Controlată) și fixarea unui caiet de sarcini ar putea duce la apariția a noi locuri de muncă în mediul rural care are atâta nevoie de asta. Trebuie construită o identitate puternică din acest punct de vedere, pentru a reda încrederea țăranilor români. De ce să nu creăm o piață adaptată timpurilor moderne? Ca aceea de la Rungis. Câteva cifre ce pot explica potențialul ei uriaș – pe o suprafață de 232 hectare, mai mult de 55.000 de metri pătrați sunt acoperiți. Parcarea ocupă 58 de hectare. Sunt 1600 de firme care își desfășoară activitatea, 20 de bănci implicate, 30 de restaurante – care oferă locuri de muncă pentru 14.000 de persoane. 28.000 de vehicule sosesc zilnic aici pentru aprovizionare. Rungis aprovizionează de la Paris 18 milioane de consumatori europeni. Toate tranzacțiile sunt înregistrate electronic, controlate meticulos de către stat. 50.000 de tone de pești de mare, 11.000 cu pește de apă dulce, carne 450.000 de tone, brânzeturi 72.000 tone, unt 9.500 tone, ouă 40.000 de tone; dintre legume – roșii 105.000 de tone; pepeni 40.000 tone etc. O astfel de piață de desfacere poate fi o soluție pentru ieșirea din criză – un sistem ce poate creea multe locuri de muncă, ce poate stimula, angaja și promova producătorii români și produsele românești – relansarea sistemelor rurale, susținerea lanțului alimentar, calitate garantată pentru consumator, român și de ce nu străin? Pentru mine produsele și preparatele ce ar putea fi recunoscute ca DOC sunt precum acuarelele unui pictor în atelierul de creație, bucătăria deschisă unde vă invit să călătorim împreună într-un univers culinar care se întinde între tradiție și modernitate. Vă mai aduceți aminte de diminețile din curtea bunicilor? De timpurile acelea când nu aveam griji și parcă toată lumea era a noastră? Să ne bucurăm împreună de Cocoșul de Contești cu un buchet de arome al unui vin bun românesc, Feteasca Neagră. Apoi, când soarele cu dinți începe să topească zăpada, să mergem pe o potecă șerpuită printre fâșii subțiri de nea, să ne bucurăm de cristalele de la râu. Cu un strop de magie culinară, putem porni împreună într-o nouă aventură în căutarea diamantelor negre – trufele -, acele nestemate încă nedescoperite, ascunse pe la poalele Munților Carpați.\n\n- Generaţiile care vin, trăiesc viaţa în cu totul alte viteze decât noi. Mănâncă mai repede, iubesc mai repede, uită mai repede. În ce măsură crezi că gustul produselor tradiţionale îşi va găsi loc în viaţa lor?\n\n- Ce se întâmplă generațiilor de astăzi este rezultatul acțiunilor noastre și a celor dinaintea noastră. De aceea acum este ultimul tren, momentul în care putem să ne unim pentru a salva ceea ce a mai rămas din patrimoniul fiecăruia dintre noi, fiecărei țări și națiuni, specificul și tradițiile, produsele și valorile pe care încă le mai deținem. Este datoria noastră să le îmbogățim și să le transmitem mai departe. De aceea timpul prezent, ziua de azi, ne pune în fața unei provocări uriașe, în aceeași măsură extraordinar de frumoasă.\n\n- Ideea de a face un Album foto-gastronomic ne-a fascinat pe amândoi. Inspiraţi de Vivaldi, am dorit să-i dăm numele „Cele 5 anotimpuri ale gustului”. Cum arată cel de-al cincilea anotimp?\n\n- Al 5-lea anotimp al gustului l-am descoperit în România. Este întreaga poveste a comorilor ascunse, aventura de a le descoperi și valorifica și de a le aduce aproape de fiecare dintre noi. Al 5-lea anotimp al gustului este așadar cuisine de terroir, de inspirație, care-și trage seva din fiecare anotimp în parte, gastronomia noului început de secol. Al cincelea anotimp este propria poveste, care ne permite să visăm și să ne proiectăm viața într-un mod unic, original. Cred că acest album reflectă o parte din căutările mele. Și el este, cu siguranță, începutul unei noi povești scrisă de un francez îndrăgostit de România.\n(Fragment din albumul foto-gastronomic \" David Contant - Cele 5 Anotimpuri ale Gustului\", în curs de apariție la Editura Convexus 2000)\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Interviu cu David Contant, INTERVIU nr.112-113','','inherit','open','open','','2313-autosave','','','2013-10-29 23:12:21','2013-10-29 21:12:21','',2313,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2013/10/29/2313-autosave/',0,'revision','',0),(2361,1,'2013-09-02 13:32:04','2013-09-02 11:32:04','LITORAL - Ce culoare are bronzul promovării !\r\n\r\nDe mai mulți ani, haotic ori organizat, litoralului românesc este din ce în ce mai agresiv promovat pentru turiștii autohtoni. Mesajele s-au diversificat. Cîndva se vorbea numai despre soare și nisip. Acum turiștii cer agrement cât mai divers și evenimente. Semnalul l-a dat Mamaia cu bonusul de imagine numit Radu Mazăre, devenit cel mai exploatat vector al televiziunilor.\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\nO lume a turismul se apropie de obștescul sfârșit în timp ce alta se naște. Cum arată această nouă lume? Împreună cu ANAT și cu mai bine de 600 de agenți de turism, am căutat să descoperim o parte din ea. Ocazia a fost oferită de un infotrip coordonat de Federația Asociațiilor de Promovare Turistică ce a avut ca scop promovarea destinațiilor românești. Au fost frecventate peste 200 de locații - declara Lucia Morariu, președintele ANAT. Pentru promovare s-a mizat și pe contribuția mass-media, inclusiv a celei de travel.\r\n\r\nEFORIE NORD: Stele și Spa-uri\r\nChiar dacă sunteți suprinși noi am început cu această stațiune. Cu o investiție de peste 16 milioane de euro fostul complex ”Steaua de Mare”, trecut prin mâna a mai mulți proprietari, e de nerecunoscut. În sensul cel mai bun al cuvântului. Omul de afaceri Nicolae Bucovală, care mai deține și alte hoteluri pe litoral, a tăcut și a făcut, astfel că două din cele trei hoteluri legate de o baza de tratament, parțial modernizată tot de acesta, arată ca nou construite. Finisaje excelente, un mobilier economic care valorifică spațiile relativ reduse ale camerelor. Așa au fost ele construite în ultimul sfert al secolului trecut. Clădirea care adăpostea sediul fostei societăți comerciale este o altă supriză. Parterul a făcut loc unui restaurant de zi, confortabil, iar la etajul 1 au fost amenajat câteva apartamente de lux. Prețurile sunt însă accesibile. Unul dintre hoteluri are amenajată la ultimul etaj un bar acoperit și deschis de unde puteți admira o panoramă inedită a stațiunii. Bucovală spune că până la sfârșitul anului va intra în circuit și cel de-al treilea hotel, iar sistemul all-inclusiv va fi practicat la scara largă. Mai are încă probleme cu administrarea plajei, dar există mai multe proiecte care îl fac optimist.\r\n\r\nAltă noutate vine dinspre complexul Mirage. El a intrat în circuit în acest sezon și se exprimă printr-o investiție de 6,8 milioane de euro. De la 3 stele a urcat la 4 ca urmare a unei co-finanțări europene. Cum se văd banii investiți în ospitalitate? A apărut un nou centru de sănătate care a convins o serie de tour-operatori străini din Rusia, Germania, Franța, Luxemburg, Belgia, Olanda, Italia să semneze noi contracte. A început, de asemenea, revitalizarea colaborării cu toate marile agenții de turism de pe piața internă. Apariția Mirage MedSPA a generat 31 de noi locuri de muncă, dintre care 22 pe segmentul medical specializat în balneologie, kinetoterapie, gimnastică medicală și 9 pentru personalul mediu calificat. El pune la dispoziția oaspeților săi 40 de cabinete de tratament individuale, săli de kinetoterapie și fitness moderne, saună finlandeză, saună umedă, dușuri ciclonice, fântână de gheață, o piscină cu apă sărată, cascade cervicale, masaje cu jet de aer, toate dispuse pe o suprafata de 2.700 metri pătrați. Mirage MedSPA remodelează dimensiunea ofertei balneare poziționându-se în prezent drept cel mai mare centru de tratament balnear privat de pe litoralul romanesc - sunt de părere investitorii. Hotelul Mirage aparține companiei Briza Mării Negre SRL ce deține și alte proprietăți în Eforie Nord printre care Restaurantul Imperial, Cherhanaua La Stuf, Clubul Yacht.\r\n\r\nMAMAIA: Printre biberoane și foițe de aur\r\n\r\nPrima oprire o să vi se pară atipică. Am vrut să vedem cu a evoluat complexul Mercur-Minerva care se promovează încă de anul trecut ca spațiu de vacanțe estivale pentru familiile cu copii mici. Se practică pachete de genul ”săptămâna bebe” ori ”bebe all inclusive”, dar nu lipsesc nici cele cu demipensiune. Plaja administrată de hotel, este amenajată pe culori, roșu marcând spațiul pentru clienții hotelului, zona albastră fiind pentru cei ce locuiesc în spații de cazare învecinate. Fiind un hotel pentru copii ne-am interesat de facilități. Ofertele pentru familiile cu bebeluși sunt all inclusive, de la pătuțuri suplimentare, cărucioare, sterilizatoare pentru biberoane etc. Marius Usturoiu, directorul general al companiei care administrează hotelul, a apreciat că ”în acest sezon gradul de ocupare este foarte bun. El se datorează în mare parte campaniilor de înscrieri timpurii care au obișnuit clientela să cumpere în avans și la prețuri atractive, vacanțele de pe litoralul românesc. Asta ne permite să funcționăm un sezon mai mare, adică din mai-iunie până în septembrie, chiar octombrie”.\r\nȘi hotelul Iaki, care aparține companiei Hagi Sport SRL, este purtător de noutăți în stațiunea Mamaia. În urma unui contract susținut de o finanțare europeană el și-a dezvoltat infrastructura pentru creșterea calității serviciilor. Obiectivul principal l-a constituit modernizarea și reamenajarea centrului de tratament și relaxare (centrul SPA). Merită să testați aceste servicii - de la masajul de relaxare, anticelulitic, relaxarea cu pietre vulcanice, wine panda, reflexoterapia, terapia cu duș vichy etc. Așa, ca o idee, aici se practică mai multe ritualuri de tratament dintre care am selectat Pepites d\'Oro, ce are la baza foițele de aur. Ele, susțin specialiștii, au o influență benefică asupra corpului, restabilind echilibrul între mai multe organe interne.\r\n\r\nNEPTUN - Cocorul s-a dus la Eden\r\n\r\nÎn încheiere încă o noutate. Ea aparține companiei Cocor Spa care a anunțat că a semnat un contract de management cu operatorul Eden Spa pentru hotelul din stațiunea Neptun. A fost o decizie de externalizare iar pentru dezvoltarea acestei strategii sânt în derulare investiții de circa 500.000 de euro. Noul concept propus de Eden Spa se axează pe spa medical & wellness, o zonă mai puțin exploatată în România. Conceptul Cocor Spa a fost lansat în 2009 în urma unei investiții care s-a ridicat la acea vreme la aproximativ 6 milioane de euro.\r\nLa final Lucian Boronea, proprietarul Agenției de turism Accent Travel & Events, cel mai important investitor privat în promovarea turismului intern, este de părere că infotripurile au început să-și arate efectele. ”Dacă în urmă cu doar câțiva ani de zile acțiunile noastre erau privite cu o oarecare reținere, acum colegii noștri de travel au ajuns să se convingă că o destinație promovată bine și la timp, poate deveni o oportunitate pentru un business profitabil”.\r\n\r\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n','Litoral - Ce culoare are bronzul promovării !, TRAVEL nr.112-113','','publish','open','open','','litoral-ce-culoare-are-bronzul-promovarii-travel-nr-112-113','','','2013-09-02 13:32:04','2013-09-02 11:32:04','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2361',0,'post','',0),(2362,1,'2013-09-02 13:30:30','2013-09-02 11:30:30','','litoral','','inherit','open','open','','litoral','','','2013-09-02 13:30:30','2013-09-02 11:30:30','',2361,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/litoral.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2363,1,'2013-09-02 13:30:31','2013-09-02 11:30:31','','litoral-2','','inherit','open','open','','litoral-2','','','2013-09-02 13:30:31','2013-09-02 11:30:31','',2361,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/litoral-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2364,1,'2013-09-02 13:30:32','2013-09-02 11:30:32','','litoral-3','','inherit','open','open','','litoral-3','','','2013-09-02 13:30:32','2013-09-02 11:30:32','',2361,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/litoral-3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2365,1,'2013-09-02 13:30:33','2013-09-02 11:30:33','','litoral-4','','inherit','open','open','','litoral-4','','','2013-09-02 13:30:33','2013-09-02 11:30:33','',2361,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/litoral-4.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2366,1,'2013-09-02 13:30:34','2013-09-02 11:30:34','','litoral-5','','inherit','open','open','','litoral-5','','','2013-09-02 13:30:34','2013-09-02 11:30:34','',2361,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/litoral-5.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2367,1,'2013-09-02 13:30:35','2013-09-02 11:30:35','','litoral-6','','inherit','open','open','','litoral-6','','','2013-09-02 13:30:35','2013-09-02 11:30:35','',2361,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/litoral-6.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2368,1,'2013-09-02 13:30:36','2013-09-02 11:30:36','','litoral-7','','inherit','open','open','','litoral-7','','','2013-09-02 13:30:36','2013-09-02 11:30:36','',2361,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/litoral-7.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2369,1,'2013-09-02 13:30:37','2013-09-02 11:30:37','','litoral-8','','inherit','open','open','','litoral-8','','','2013-09-02 13:30:37','2013-09-02 11:30:37','',2361,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/litoral-8.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2370,1,'2013-09-02 13:30:47','2013-09-02 11:30:47','LITORAL - Ce culoare are bronzul promovării !\n\nDe mai mulți ani, haotic ori organizat, litoralului românesc este din ce în ce mai agresiv promovat pentru turiștii autohtoni. Mesajele s-au diversificat. Cîndva se vorbea numai despre soare și nisip. Acum turiștii cer agrement cât mai divers și evenimente. Semnalul l-a dat Mamaia cu bonusul de imagine numit Radu Mazăre, devenit cel mai exploatat vector al televiziunilor.\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\nO lume a turismul se apropie de obștescul sfârșit în timp ce alta se naște. Cum arată această nouă lume? Împreună cu ANAT și cu mai bine de 600 de agenți de turism, am căutat să descoperim o parte din ea. Ocazia a fost oferită de un infotrip coordonat de Federația Asociațiilor de Promovare Turistică ce a avut ca scop promovarea destinațiilor românești. Au fost frecventate peste 200 de locații - declara Lucia Morariu, președintele ANAT. Pentru promovare s-a mizat și pe contribuția mass-media, inclusiv a celei de travel.\n\nEFORIE NORD: Stele și Spa-uri\nChiar dacă sunteți suprinși noi am început cu această stațiune. Cu o investiție de peste 16 milioane de euro fostul complex ”Steaua de Mare”, trecut prin mâna a mai mulți proprietari, e de nerecunoscut. În sensul cel mai bun al cuvântului. Omul de afaceri Nicolae Bucovală, care mai deține și alte hoteluri pe litoral, a tăcut și a făcut, astfel că două din cele trei hoteluri legate de o baza de tratament, parțial modernizată tot de acesta, arată ca nou construite. Finisaje excelente, un mobilier economic care valorifică spațiile relativ reduse ale camerelor. Așa au fost ele construite în ultimul sfert al secolului trecut. Clădirea care adăpostea sediul fostei societăți comerciale este o altă supriză. Parterul a făcut loc unui restaurant de zi, confortabil, iar la etajul 1 au fost amenajat câteva apartamente de lux. Prețurile sunt însă accesibile. Unul dintre hoteluri are amenajată la ultimul etaj un bar acoperit și deschis de unde puteți admira o panoramă inedită a stațiunii. Bucovală spune că până la sfârșitul anului va intra în circuit și cel de-al treilea hotel, iar sistemul all-inclusiv va fi practicat la scara largă. Mai are încă probleme cu administrarea plajei, dar există mai multe proiecte care îl fac optimist.\n\nAltă noutate vine dinspre complexul Mirage.

OUR INTERVIEW\r\nDAVID CONTANT: “We have discovered the 5th season of taste in Romania!”\r\n
“Romania has extremely varied and abundant ingredients for gastronomy. They could be exported to the Michelin restaurants anywhere in the world, they could easily find their place in the most demanding restaurants around the world!”\r\nDavid Contant is one of the most appreciated foreign Chefs operating in Romania. He was born in 1968 in Lyon, the capital city of the French gastronomy. He made his apprenticeship at l\'Haricot restaurant in this town, run by his uncle. He has an experience of about 30 years in gastronomy, gained in restaurants ranked between 1 and 3 Michelin stars in countries such as France, Switzerland, Great Britain, Uruguay, Germany etc. The best chef in Romania (2007) and Golden Chef Bucharest (2009) are only two of the distinctions that he obtained in our country. He owns a farm in Conţeşti (Dâmboviţa County), where he develops pioneering concepts, but also commercial activities.\r\n(Fragment from the photographic gastronomic album “David Contant - The 5 Seasons of Taste”, forthcoming at Convexus 2000 Publishing House).

The declaration was made at the International Tourism Conference which took place at the Parliament’s Palace in Bucharest under the title “Identifying the Competitive Advantage of a Tourism Destination”. According to him, Romania was visited in 2012 by 1.6 million foreigners, and the average value of the amount spent on the territory of our country raises to about 780 Euro per person per stay.\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\n\r\nThe international conference was followed by an Infotrip in which over 50 foreign and Romanian journalists participated, which documented in the Danube Delta, on Prahova Valley (with Peleş and Bran Castles), Alba Iulia, the salt mine in Turda, Sighişoara, Sibiu etc.\r\n\r\n

S-a născut în 1968 la Lyon, capitala gastronomiei franceze. Ucenicia și-a făcut-o la restaurantul l\'Haricot, din acest oraș, condus de unchiul său, un apreciat bucătar. A absolvit Școala Hotelieră Macon en Saone et Loire, în 1985. Deține o experiență în gastronomie de circa 30 de ani, câștigată în restaurante cotate între 1 și 3 stele Michelin de pe întregul mapamond (Franța, Elveția, Marea Britanie, Uruguay, Germania etc). A asigurat consultanța pe partea de F&B pentru compania Gulf Air din Bahrein (prima clasă), respectiv pentru Georges Blanc din Vonnas, pentru navele de croazieră etc.\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\n\r\nCel mai bun chef din România (2007), Golden Chef București (2009) sunt doar două dintre distincțiile obținute în țara noastră. Deține o fermă la Conțești (județul Dâmbovița), unde dezvoltă concepte de pionerat dar și activități comerciale.\r\n\r\n- Ai lucrat pe mapamond în mai multe restaurante cotate de la 1 şi 3 stele Michelin. Cred că atunci când ai venit în România aveai un geamantan plin de entuziasm. Peste numai câţiva ani erai la un pas de plecare. Care e distanţa dintre aşteptările tale şi realitatea cu care te-ai întâlnit?\r\n\r\n- Cu toată experiența mea, am venit în România pentru proiectul Heritage. A fost o provocare uriașă, aceea de a crea un punct gastronomic de referință în Europa de Est. A fost primul restaurant haute cuisine la București, într-o locație bine aleasă, în inima Micului Paris. Provocarea a constat și în a construi de la zero un concept unic, proiectarea restaurantului, designul și funcționalitatea bucătăriei, selectarea și instruirea personalului, identificarea și stabilirea furnizorilor de produse, într-un final crearea unui limbaj comun gastronomic în România, la standard Michelin. A fost dorința mea de a aduce la București experiențe culinare gastronomice de acest nivel. De a promova haute cuisine așa cum o practicăm în Franța, Germania, Elveția, Hong Kong, în toate locațiile din lume unde regăsim recomandările faimosului ghid Michelin.\r\n\r\n- După ce ai fost Chef sau ai oferit consultanţă pentru o serie de restaurante din Bucureşti te-ai convertit în investitor şi producător... agricol la Conţeşti. La circa 40 de kilometri de Capitală, ţi-ai creat o fermă a gustului. Un hobby, sau e ceva mai mult ?\r\n\r\n- Aici a început cea de-a doua călătorie a vieții mele, inspirată de Contești, de tot ceea ce am descoperit și de micro-climatul pe care l-am creat aici. Am descoperit că în România sunt atat de multe produse locale autentice extraordinare pentru haute-cuisine, dar precum aurul verde nedescoperit și încă neștiut de mulți dintre noi. Ultimii ani au marcat pentru mine o adevarată “vânătoare de comori”. Aveam tot felul de indicii și de bucăți din hartă, însa tot timpul mai descopeream noi taine ale străbunilor, tradiții, locuri de demult, parcă uitate. În Contești am găsit primul artefact, primele indicii ale comorii, ale patrimoniului extraordinar al acestui pământ; primul pas către descoperirea tezaurului. România este ca o insulă plină de bogății, trebuie însa sa descoperi drumul si cheile de la cuferele cu comori. Dupa un proiect de cercetare de aproape 4 ani, am pus îmbinat toate indiciile descoperite. Acum cred că am harta aproape completă a comorii.\r\n\r\n- Ai călătorit foarte mult în România, vreo 6.000 de kilometri pentru a descoperi viaţa reală, oamenii dar şi specificul culinar al unor zone. Ai testat preparate tradiționale, ai făcut mii de fotografii. Azi eşti un partizan al gastronomiei autentice. Cât de profund ţi-a marcat viaţa această aventură?\r\n\r\n- Mă gândesc că România a fost binecuvantată de Dumnezeu atunci când văd vânatul pe câmp sau știucile, șalaul, racii, hribii, brânzeturile, mieii de Paște, porcii crescuți la țară, păsările de curte, crescute cu boabe, roșiile care pentru mine sunt printre cele mai bune din lume. Ca anecdotă, pot să vă povestesc că înainte să vin în România nu mâncam roșii pentru că mi se păreau absolut lipsite de gust. Acum, o ratatouille gătită cu roșii din grădina mea are cu adevărat gust. Memoria mea afectivă se trezește și mă trimite direct în copilarie când bunica mea gătea acest fel atât de simplu, dar atât de gustos. Cea de-a doua călătorie profesională este o evoluție în viața mea de cuisinier, un voiaj în regatul conștiintei. Timp de trei ani, mi-am concentrat efortul creator pe un nou proiect, născut la începutul acestei perioade, după cum vă povesteam, la Conțești. Știinta și pasiunea de a oferi oaspeților experiențe culinare cu produse exclusiv românești, este bazată pe o cercetare desfășurată în diferite zone ale țării. Am călătorit prin România, descoperind țărani, fermieri, ciobani, cunoscând trufele, caviarul și ciupercile românești, fiind astfel capabil de a îmi crea propriul microconcept – ferma cu animale domestice, legume și pomi fructiferi pe care am dezvoltat-o în apropierea râului Dâmbovița. Acolo am descoperit o a doua glie, la 40 de kilometri de București. A doua rădăcină, într-o câmpie foarte fertilă, cu o vedere frumoasă către Carpați. Pentru a ajunge la răspunsurile pe care le caut, am hotărât să îmi pun întrebări concrete de genul: Ce avem noi azi în farfurie?; Ce moștenire vom lăsa copiilor?; Poate exista o gastronomie românească autentică?\r\n\r\n- Eşti adeptul conceptului \"100% românesc\", un rezultat complex al mai multor ani de cercetări şi experienţe. Care este conţinutul acestuia?\r\n\r\n- Pot fi produsele autohtone transportate peste mări și țări? Produse de calitate, având marca pământului românesc, precum roșile, nucile, trufele, varietăți de paste, brânzeturi pot trece dincolo de granițele țării? Proiectul \"100% românesc\" militează tocmai pentru această recunoaștere internațională – produse de nișă, naturale, autentice. Acum se importă masiv din Grecia sau Turcia, de pildă. România însă are ingrediente extrem de diverse și bogate pentru gastronomie. Ele ar putea fi exportate către restaurantele Michelin oriunde în lume, și-ar putea găsi cu ușurinta locul în cele mai pretențioase restaurante de pe mapamond. Este timpul să luptăm pentru crearea de mărci DOC (Denumire de Origine Controlată) care vor certifica o identitate puternică – este nevoie de multă seriozitate, muncă susținută, disciplină și rigoare -, asa cum e toată munca în gastronomie, de altfel. Beneficiile pentru România se vor dovedi fabuloase… Nu am în vedere reinventarea unor rețete tradiționale, ci de a folosi și pune în valoare produsele locale, printr-o interpretare modernă, contemporană. Vedetele conceptului \"100%.ro\" sunt micii prducători și țăranii, acești prinți ai pământului. Ei sunt baza unei gastronomii adevărate, în special a gastronomiei românești. Soluția rămâne micro-agricultura sau produsele agricole provenite de la micro-ferme. Identitatea gastronomică a unui individ sau a unei țări se creionează prin intermediul abordării pluriculturale, prin discursul gastronomic și prin dezvoltarea personalizată a acestuia.\r\n\r\n- Se poate spune că experienţele româneşti ţi-au retrezit memoria afectivă a gustului din copilăria pe care ai petrecut-o în Franţa ?\r\n\r\n- Când mă plimb cu bicicleta pe drumurile de țară – și fac adesea asta – de cele mai multe ori neasfaltate, abandonate de fondurile publice, îmi amintesc de lumea copilariei mele. Și asta mă inspiră în crearea felurilor de mâncare și mă determină să spun că de fapt, până la urmă, e o adevarată fericire să stai departe de societatea de consum. Sunt atâtea efecte benefice. Nu există poluare, nici îngrășăminte chimice, poți admira sutele de hectare lăsate în pârloagă, berzele pe câmpuri, căprioarele care se aventurează departe de pădure și mai ales fluturii. De ce vorbesc despre fluturi ? Ei bine, e simplu. Am făcut această descoperire acum zece ani în Lozère, ținutul meu natal. Nu mai existau fluturi și această situație e una foarte gravă, deoarece fluturii sunt foarte sensibili la schimbările eco-climatului. Ei sunt primii care dispar din cauza îngrășămintelor chimice, a produselor toxice și în general a poluării. Acest lucru demonstrează că lanțul alimentației s-a rupt. Nu mai există fluturi, nici arici sau vipere și tot așa până ajungem, pe scara evoluției, până la noi, la oameni. Vă invit să descoperiți asta gândindu-vă la copilăria voastră. Amintiți-vă cum vă plăcea să alergați cu plasa de prins fluturi în mână. Veți constata că azi nu mai e posibil să faceți același lucru, ceea ce e înspăimântător. Tot ceea ce descoperim ca fiind negativ trebuie schimbat în pozitiv. Pământul era înainte sănătos, nu cunoscuse practic niciodată această agresiune chimică din partea cultivatorilor de cereale care sunt mai preocupați de dividendele lor decât de lumea pe care o lăsăm celor care ne vor urma.\r\n\r\n- Sunt românii sunt ospitalieri sau că aceasta este doar o legendă !\r\n\r\n-Cu siguranță da. Aveți încredere în țăranii voștri. Fiți pionieri și în zece ani veți fi copiați de alte țări. Faceți turism ecologic, căci aceasta e adevărata rețetă a turismului astăzi. Copiii nu pot fi educați mai bine altundeva decât la țară, în preajma animalelor de fermă. Aici își pot descoperi rădăcinile și originile. Țăranii vor fi încântați să vă primească pentru că sunt oameni primitori și veseli în ciuda condițiilor lor de viață spartane. Am descoperit oameni deschiși, primitori, binevoitori, încântați de a deschide porțile caselor lor și de a te primi cu inima voioasă și bucate pe masă – aceste comori de care vă povesteam. Mulțumită lor le-am descoperit.\r\n\r\n- Cât de mult s-ar putea individualiza arta noastră culinară, prin promovarea unor mărci DOC?\r\n\r\n- Bucureștiul a fost supranumit cândva “Micul Paris”. De ce să nu creem Micul Rungis? O piață de desfacere precum în Rungis, aproape de Paris. Eu cred că România are capacitatea de a exporta produse de calitate, în loc să importe, are șansa de a avea produse minunate. Crearea de mărci DOC (Denumire de Origine Controlată) și fixarea unui caiet de sarcini ar putea duce la apariția a noi locuri de muncă în mediul rural care are atâta nevoie de asta. Trebuie construită o identitate puternică din acest punct de vedere, pentru a reda încrederea țăranilor români. De ce să nu creăm o piață adaptată timpurilor moderne? Ca aceea de la Rungis. Câteva cifre ce pot explica potențialul ei uriaș – pe o suprafață de 232 hectare, mai mult de 55.000 de metri pătrați sunt acoperiți. Parcarea ocupă 58 de hectare. Sunt 1600 de firme care își desfășoară activitatea, 20 de bănci implicate, 30 de restaurante – care oferă locuri de muncă pentru 14.000 de persoane. 28.000 de vehicule sosesc zilnic aici pentru aprovizionare. Rungis aprovizionează de la Paris 18 milioane de consumatori europeni. Toate tranzacțiile sunt înregistrate electronic, controlate meticulos de către stat. 50.000 de tone de pești de mare, 11.000 cu pește de apă dulce, carne 450.000 de tone, brânzeturi 72.000 tone, unt 9.500 tone, ouă 40.000 de tone; dintre legume – roșii 105.000 de tone; pepeni 40.000 tone etc. O astfel de piață de desfacere poate fi o soluție pentru ieșirea din criză – un sistem ce poate creea multe locuri de muncă, ce poate stimula, angaja și promova producătorii români și produsele românești – relansarea sistemelor rurale, susținerea lanțului alimentar, calitate garantată pentru consumator, român și de ce nu străin? Pentru mine produsele și preparatele ce ar putea fi recunoscute ca DOC sunt precum acuarelele unui pictor în atelierul de creație, bucătăria deschisă unde vă invit să călătorim împreună într-un univers culinar care se întinde între tradiție și modernitate. Vă mai aduceți aminte de diminețile din curtea bunicilor? De timpurile acelea când nu aveam griji și parcă toată lumea era a noastră? Să ne bucurăm împreună de Cocoșul de Contești cu un buchet de arome al unui vin bun românesc, Feteasca Neagră. Apoi, când soarele cu dinți începe să topească zăpada, să mergem pe o potecă șerpuită printre fâșii subțiri de nea, să ne bucurăm de cristalele de la râu. Cu un strop de magie culinară, putem porni împreună într-o nouă aventură în căutarea diamantelor negre – trufele -, acele nestemate încă nedescoperite, ascunse pe la poalele Munților Carpați.\r\n\r\n- Generaţiile care vin, trăiesc viaţa în cu totul alte viteze decât noi. Mănâncă mai repede, iubesc mai repede, uită mai repede. În ce măsură crezi că gustul produselor tradiţionale îşi va găsi loc în viaţa lor?\r\n\r\n- Ce se întâmplă generațiilor de astăzi este rezultatul acțiunilor noastre și a celor dinaintea noastră. De aceea acum este ultimul tren, momentul în care putem să ne unim pentru a salva ceea ce a mai rămas din patrimoniul fiecăruia dintre noi, fiecărei țări și națiuni, specificul și tradițiile, produsele și valorile pe care încă le mai deținem. Este datoria noastră să le îmbogățim și să le transmitem mai departe. De aceea timpul prezent, ziua de azi, ne pune în fața unei provocări uriașe, în aceeași măsură extraordinar de frumoasă.\r\n\r\n- Ideea de a face un Album foto-gastronomic ne-a fascinat pe amândoi. Inspiraţi de Vivaldi, am dorit să-i dăm numele „Cele 5 anotimpuri ale gustului”. Cum arată cel de-al cincilea anotimp?\r\n\r\n- Al 5-lea anotimp al gustului l-am descoperit în România. Este întreaga poveste a comorilor ascunse, aventura de a le descoperi și valorifica și de a le aduce aproape de fiecare dintre noi. Al 5-lea anotimp al gustului este așadar cuisine de terroir, de inspirație, care-și trage seva din fiecare anotimp în parte, gastronomia noului început de secol. Al cincelea anotimp este propria poveste, care ne permite să visăm și să ne proiectăm viața într-un mod unic, original. Cred că acest album reflectă o parte din căutările mele. Și el este, cu siguranță, începutul unei noi povești scrisă de un francez îndrăgostit de România.\r\n(Fragment din albumul foto-gastronomic \" David Contant - Cele 5 Anotimpuri ale Gustului\", în curs de apariție la Editura Convexus 2000)\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Interviu cu David Contant, INTERVIU nr.112-113','','inherit','open','open','','2313-revision-2','','','2013-09-02 13:06:13','2013-09-02 11:06:13','',2313,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2013/09/02/2313-revision-2/',0,'revision','',0),(2385,1,'2013-11-02 14:10:24','2013-11-02 12:10:24','In plină epocă în care comunicarea alunecă rapid pe pârtiile online iar Facebook-ul și Twitter-ul sunt copiii de aur ai Reginei electronice, ce naște zilnic idei pe ecranele computerelor, limba de lemn continuă să facă ravagii în lumea turismului românesc. Expresiile ei au rădăcini și reflexe adânci. Toate au crescut pe un teren dominat de starea de suficiență, comoditate și sictir, pe care o întâlneam pe vremea când printul și TV aveau monopolul în promovarea turistică.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Traveller-Magazin-coperta-114.jpg\" "\\"Traveller")
\r\n\r\nPe atunci, aproape invariabil, când abordam o discuție privitoare la publicitarea și mediatizarea unor concepte din industrie, nici nu apucam să dezvolt o propunere că mi se răspundea: ”Nu avem nevoie de publicitate pentru că turiștii care vin și pleacă mulțumiți de la noi, ne promovează din gură în gură în cercul de prieteni. Vizitatorii mulțumiți ne trimit și mai mulți turiști.” Kit-ul e inspirat din frazele devenite aproape slogan, cum că ”O fotografie face cât o mie de cuvinte!”, drept urmare și ”Un client mulțumit, face cât zeci de reclame!” E posibil. Dar nu este o regulă. Pentru că și un cuvânt poate valora cât o mie de fotografii, iar un client nemulțumit poate devasta încasările unui operator turistic.\r\n\r\nPromovarea din gură în gură este o opțiune. Se mai întâlnește în țările slab dezvoltate, care încă fac turism oral, n-au acces la publicațiile de turism - print ori online, nu contează -, și încă nu s-au cățărat pe scările Internetului. Promovarea turistică din gură în gură este gratuită în timp ce publicitatea costă bani. Aici se ascunde de fapt drama unor companii turistice, ai căror patroni și manageri au decăzut psihic într-atât, încât se încuie în birou de dimineața până seara, obsedați să-și numere și renumere banii lor, nu ai băncilor. Ați observat, prin septembrie, când se stinge sezonul pe litoral, valurile au un sunet ciudat - redau parcă foșnetul banilor. E doar o glumă!?\r\n\r\nHai să fim serioși! Promovarea din gură în gură e o mare tromboneală. Pentru că ea se referă la turiștii care ajung într-un anumit loc.

Ea a marcat, în prima decadă a lunii august, împlinirea a 95 de ani de la Marea Unire din 1918 și 90 de ani de la adoptarea Constituţiei din 1923, prima Constituţie a României Mari. Expoziţia a cuprins obiecte personale ale regelui Ferdinand I, Constituţia din 1923, purtând semnăturile în original ale membrilor guvernului, decoraţii, cărţi poştale, documente etc. ”Evenimentul a continuat un proiect început în august 2008. Atunci Muzeul Naţional Cotroceni în colaborare cu Academia Navală „Mircea cel Bătrân” şi Muzeul Marinei Române a organizat pe Fregata „Regina Maria”, o expoziţie dedicată împlinirii a 70 de ani de la moartea reginei.

La Mila 23, în Delta Dunării, s-a deschis Muzeul Plutitor. Spațiul vorbește despre tradiția pescărească documentată în imagini și bărci de lemn vechi în mărime naturală expuse în aer liber, însoțite de o serie de povești de succes ale campionilor olimpici la caiac și canoe născuți în Delta Dunării. Proiectul de artă publică „Muzeul plutitor - Lotca: tradiţie şi mitologie în spaţiul Deltei Dunării”, a fost finalizat în luna august și este rezultatul unor cercetări interdisciplinare desfăşurate la inițiativa Asociaţiei Ivan Patzaichin - Mila 23. Aici vor fi puse în valoare tradiţii şi istorii orale din arealul cuprins între satele Mila 23, Crişan şi Caraorman.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Muzeu-Mila-23-1.jpg\" "\\"SONY")
\r\nProiectul, care beneficiază de susținerea financiară a Administrației Fondului Cultural Național, valorifică patrimoniul material și imaterial din Delta Dunării, recuperând într-un mod inedit elemente de tradiție și cultură locală. Muzeul Plutitor va deveni, în viitor, un punct de atracție pentru turiștii veniți în Delta Dunării dar și un spațiu reper pentru locuitorii din această zonă cu îndeletniciri specifice locului.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAtacăm noi piețe... Uzbekistan și Coreea de Sud\r\n\r\nRăzvan Filipescu, președintele Autorității Naționale pentru Turism (ANT), a declarat că România va fi promovată în Uzbekistan și Coreea de Sud cu circuitele culturale, Delta Dunării și turismul balnear, dar sunt vizate și alte piețe. „Am comandat un studiu de impact, facem o analiză a profilului turiștilor în fiecare piață și a perioadelor în care este oportun să ne promovăm, în care ei își aleg concediile” - a mai spus Filipescu. ANT mai are în vedere redeschiderea unor reprezentanțe de turism în Japonia și Dubai și se va concentra pe promovarea, pe lângă destinațiile clasice, gen Germania, Spania, Austria etc., și pe piețele din Israel, China, India, dar și în state din fosta Uniune Sovietică.\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nBUCHAREST TIPS - un ghid alternativ\r\n\r\nPlatforma KOMBINAT a lansat Bucharest Tips, un ghid alternativ al orașului București, cu un concept inedit de prezentare și de ierarhizare a informațiilor turistice, pornind nu de la locuri, ci de la oameni. Ghidul este disponibil online, la adresa http://bucharest-tips.com și se adresează turiștilor vorbitori de limbă engleză, aflați în căutarea unor recomandări autentice, care doresc sa experimenteze orașul viu, aflat dincolo de stereotipurile turistice. Plecând de la îndemnul “Discover Bucharest as your hometown”, Bucharest Tips are rolul unui prieten virtual într-un oraș necunoscut. Ghidul turistic este structurat în categorii, astfel ca turiștii pot selecta, în funcție de preferințe, recomandări foarte variate și detaliate - ne-a precizat Adina Camara.\r\n\r\n

Conform organizatorilor de la Exporom, se dorește ”dezvoltarea unui proiect pentru industria de curățenie care sperăm că va deveni foarte atractiv la nivel internațional, în special pentru Europa de Sud Est. De asemenea, intenționăm să avem expozanți din New and the Old Cleaning World”. Exporom și-a propus să utilizeze structura centrului expozițional și expertiza câștigată în organizarea de targuri comerciale, întâlniri de afaceri, conferințe și tot ce este necesar pentru a facilita planificarea evenimentelor naționale si internationale etc. Mai multe informații despre eveniment aflați la adresa http://cleaningexpo.ro/\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nVom avea 33,3 de hectare de plaje în plus\r\n\r\nPînă în 2015 Litoralul românesc va fi extins, cu 33,3 hectare de plajă. Implementarea acestui proiect se va ridica la o valoare de peste 170 de milioane de euro și are ca scop extinderea, protecţia şi reabilitarea părţii sudice a litoralului, în apropierea Municipiului Constanţa şi a staţiunii Eforie Nord. Potrivit Ministerului Mediului şi Schimbărilor Climatice (MMSC) eroziunea costieră atinge în unele zone rata de aproximativ 2 metri/an, iar sectoarele cele mai afectate sunt în stațiunile Mamaia, Tomis, Eforie, Tuzla, Olimp-Venus, Saturn-Mangalia, 2 Mai - Vama Veche.\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nUn nou touch screen la Otopeni\r\n\r\nCompania Naţională Aeroporturi Bucureşti a pus la dispoziţia pasagerilor al treilea terminal touch-screen pentru realizarea comenzilor taxi la Aeroportul Internaţional Henri Coandă Bucureşti (AIHCB). Terminalele cu display touch screen sunt utilizate de pasageri din luna aprilie, până în prezent fiind înregistrate peste 80.000 de comenzi taxi prin intermediul acestor dispozitive. Ele folosesc un soft multilanguage, dar şi o interfaţă grafică, accesibilă inclusiv pasagerilor care nu cunosc o limbă de circulaţie internaţională.\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nProiect transfrontalier\r\n\r\nPrimăria municipiului Drobeta Turnu Severin a demarat implementarea unui proiect transfrontalier de promovare a turismului împreună cu parteneri sârbi - a declarat viceprimarul Marius Screciu. Valoarea proiectului este de 300.000 de euro. El va fi derulat în colaborare cu autoritățile orașului sârbesc Negotin prin Programul de Cooperare Transfrontalieră România-Serbia, finanțat de Uniunea Europeană. Suma va fi utilizată pentru organizarea a două târguri de turism, a unor întâlniri a operatorilor din turism și pentru achiziționarea unor panouri de informare turistică.\r\n\r\n

Proiectul de artă publică „Muzeul plutitor - Lotca: tradiţie şi mitologie în spaţiul Deltei Dunării”, a fost finalizat în luna august și este rezultatul unor cercetări interdisciplinare desfăşurate la inițiativa Asociaţiei Ivan Patzaichin - Mila 23. Aici vor fi puse în valoare tradiţii şi istorii orale din arealul cuprins între satele Mila 23, Crişan şi Caraorman.\n\n\nProiectul, care beneficiază de susținerea financiară a Administrației Fondului Cultural Național, valorifică patrimoniul material și imaterial din Delta Dunării, recuperând într-un mod inedit elemente de tradiție și cultură locală. Muzeul Plutitor va deveni, în viitor, un punct de atracție pentru turiștii veniți în Delta Dunării dar și un spațiu reper pentru locuitorii din această zonă cu îndeletniciri specifice locului.\n\n\n\nAtacăm noi piețe... Uzbekistan și Coreea de Sud\n\nRăzvan Filipescu, președintele Autorității Naționale pentru Turism (ANT), a declarat că România va fi promovată în Uzbekistan și Coreea de Sud cu circuitele culturale, Delta Dunării și turismul balnear, dar sunt vizate și alte piețe. „Am comandat un studiu de impact, facem o analiză a profilului turiștilor în fiecare piață și a perioadelor în care este oportun să ne promovăm, în care ei își aleg concediile” - a mai spus Filipescu. ANT mai are în vedere redeschiderea unor reprezentanțe de turism în Japonia și Dubai și se va concentra pe promovarea, pe lângă destinațiile clasice, gen Germania, Spania, Austria etc., și pe piețele din Israel, China, India, dar și în state din fosta Uniune Sovietică.\n\n
\n\nBUCHAREST TIPS - un ghid alternativ\n\nPlatforma KOMBINAT a lansat Bucharest Tips, un ghid alternativ al orașului București, cu un concept inedit de prezentare și de ierarhizare a informațiilor turistice, pornind nu de la locuri, ci de la oameni. Ghidul este disponibil online, la adresa http://bucharest-tips.com și se adresează turiștilor vorbitori de limbă engleză, aflați în căutarea unor recomandări autentice, care doresc sa experimenteze orașul viu, aflat dincolo de stereotipurile turistice. Plecând de la îndemnul “Discover Bucharest as your hometown”, Bucharest Tips are rolul unui prieten virtual într-un oraș necunoscut. Ghidul turistic este structurat în categorii, astfel ca turiștii pot selecta, în funcție de preferințe, recomandări foarte variate și detaliate - ne-a precizat Adina Camara.\n\n
\n\nEXPOROM face curat\n\nÎntre 10 și 12 octombrie se va desfășura Cleaning Expo 2013, o expoziție B2B dedicata producătorilor și distribuitorilor de echipamente și servicii de curățenie. Conform organizatorilor de la Exporom, se dorește ”dezvoltarea unui proiect pentru industria de curățenie care sperăm că va deveni foarte atractiv la nivel internațional, în special pentru Europa de Sud Est. De asemenea, intenționăm să avem expozanți din New and the Old Cleaning World”. Exporom și-a propus să utilizeze structura centrului expozițional și expertiza câștigată în organizarea de targuri comerciale, întâlniri de afaceri, conferințe și tot ce este necesar pentru a facilita planificarea evenimentelor naționale si internationale etc. Mai multe informații despre eveniment aflați la adresa http://cleaningexpo.ro/\n\n
\n\nVom avea 33,3 de hectare de plaje în plus\n\nPînă în 2015 Litoralul românesc va fi extins, cu 33,3 hectare de plajă. Implementarea acestui proiect se va ridica la o valoare de peste 170 de milioane de euro și are ca scop extinderea, protecţia şi reabilitarea părţii sudice a litoralului, în apropierea Municipiului Constanţa şi a staţiunii Eforie Nord. Potrivit Ministerului Mediului şi Schimbărilor Climatice (MMSC) eroziunea costieră atinge în unele zone rata de aproximativ 2 metri/an, iar sectoarele cele mai afectate sunt în stațiunile Mamaia, Tomis, Eforie, Tuzla, Olimp-Venus, Saturn-Mangalia, 2 Mai - Vama Veche.\n\n
\n\nUn nou touch screen la Otopeni\n\nCompania Naţională Aeroporturi Bucureşti a pus la dispoziţia pasagerilor al treilea terminal touch-screen pentru realizarea comenzilor taxi la Aeroportul Internaţional Henri Coandă Bucureşti (AIHCB). Terminalele cu display touch screen sunt utilizate de pasageri din luna aprilie, până în prezent fiind înregistrate peste 80.000 de comenzi taxi prin intermediul acestor dispozitive. Ele folosesc un soft multilanguage, dar şi o interfaţă grafică, accesibilă inclusiv pasagerilor care nu cunosc o limbă de circulaţie internaţională.\n\n
\n\nProiect transfrontalier\n\nPrimăria municipiului Drobeta Turnu Severin a demarat implementarea unui proiect transfrontalier de promovare a turismului împreună cu parteneri sârbi - a declarat viceprimarul Marius Screciu. Valoarea proiectului este de 300.000 de euro. El va fi derulat în colaborare cu autoritățile orașului sârbesc Negotin prin Programul de Cooperare Transfrontalieră România-Serbia, finanțat de Uniunea Europeană. Suma va fi utilizată pentru organizarea a două târguri de turism, a unor întâlniri a operatorilor din turism și pentru achiziționarea unor panouri de informare turistică.\n\n
\n\nMarea Neagră și-a prelungit programul\n\nProgram Operaţional Comun „Bazinul Mării Negre 2014-2020”, s-a bucurat de succes în rândul statelor participante, în cei șapte ani de funcționare. Drept urmare la întâlnirea de lucru reprezentanţii celor 9 state participante (Armenia, Azerbaidjan, Bulgaria, Georgia, Grecia, Moldova, România, Turcia şi Ucraina), ai Comisiei Europene, ai Programului Interact ENPI şi ai Autorităţii Comune de Management au stabilit continuarea dezvoltării Program Operaţional Comun „Bazinul Mării Negre” și pentru perspectiva 2014-2020. Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Administraţiei Publice (MDRAP) a fost nominalizat ca Autoritate de Management și pentru acest program.

La fața locului ești asediat de mii de oferte turistice. Dar în mijlocul deșertului Nevada, înconjurat de mii de kilometri de sol arid, nisip și stânci, se află sute de atracții care merită văzute și... trăite.\r\n\r\nLAS VEGAS - Luxul se reinventează în fiecare zi\r\n\r\nCaesar\'s Palace este cu siguranță una dintre mărcile hoteliere emblematice ale orașului. Am avut ocazia rarisimă să ne numărăm printre cei 20 de juraliști străini agreați să viziteze locuri în care puțini vizitatori au acces. Caesar\'s Palace este un mini-oraș plin de statui vorbitoare - e drept că vorbesc și se mișcă numai la anumite ore -, cu cascade, înconjurat de localuri interioare, încadrate de veritabile bulevarde asediate de verdeață, opere de artă - picturi și sculpturi, de concerte, spectacole de carnaval. Toate dau o strălucire aparte acestor spații în care ai putea trăi fără să mai ieși din complexul hotelier. Turul, în care am fost însoțiți de către Michael Leonard, Leisure group sales manager-, a inclus apartamentele și vilele de lux ale proprietății. Da, ați citit corect, vile, nu mai puțin de 6. Trei dintre ele se află la ultimul etaj al Turnului lui Octavius, inaugurat în 2012. În fapt vorbim de 668 de camere ce poartă amprenta și design-ul marca Laurel. Premiile Forbes acordate acestui concept sunt o recunoaștere a eleganței unice a acestora. 8882 este numărul camerei ”Vila Toscana”, denumită și Vila Traian. Luxul este reflectat peste tot - șeminee din marmură venețiană, aur de 24 de karate și pietre semipreționase încrustrate în decorul băilor, o cameră multimedia tapetată cu piele naturală, aparatură de ultimă generație. Clientela are la dispoziție personal propriu 24 de ore din 24 de ore, o grădină cu plante naturale și o... piscină. Toate se află, după cum ați intuit la etajul 88. Panorama orașului este impresionantă. Ni s-au furnizat și câteva... delicatese: o noapte de cazare costă în jur de 40.000 de dolari. Categoria oaspeților este una exclusivistă și discretă. O reședință aparține artistei Celine Dion, una dintre cele mai iubite dive din Las Vegas. De alfel am avut ocazia de a o urmări într-un mini concert.\r\n\r\nTurnul lui Augustus este la fel de impresionant. Cele 952 de camere și cele 3 vile ale sale se poziționează pe aceeași linie a luxului confortabil. Restaurantele Nobu, Guy Savoy, Gordon Ramsey, Michael Richard, salonul ”Color”, conceput de Michael Boychuck, precum și ”Qua Bath Spa” sunt menite să răsfețe simțurile cu acel ”ceva”, specific luxului american. Vorbim de restaurante cotate cu stele Michelin, de premii Forbes sau de AAA Five Diamond Award. Am văzut, am fotografiat, am testat și mai ales ne-am bucurat de această șansă.\r\n\r\nCaesar\'s Palace este nu numai un simbol al luxului ci și o bijuterie tehnică. Oferă nu mai puțin de 3960 de camere, inclusiv pe cele din Turnurile amintite. Ultima noutate este Nobu Hotel cu 181 de camere. El este promovat aici drept... hotelul din hotel, pentru că noul complex a fost construit chiar interiorul complexului vizitat. Caesar\'s Palace se distinge și printr-un parfumul crinilor, răspândiți peste tot, în mii de vaze. Este floarea regilor. Astfel cei care locuiesc sau doar vizitează acest loc - și zilnic trec zeci de mii pe culoarele și prin galeriile sale -, ajung să se simtă, fără îndoială ”regii” turismului. Las Vegas e un oraș cosmopolit, iar fiecare hotel degajă atmosfera unei povești, a unui basm, a unui loc. The Venetian te invită pe Canaletto, în Piața San Marco, Turnul Eiffel e încorporat în hotelul cu același nume, New York își are complexul lui, fântânile muzicale fascinează seara în față la Bellagio, Circus Circus, este raiul copiilor și a tinerilor, cele două hoteluri Wynn ascund între ele grădini și săli de spectacole fabuloase care se întind pe kilometri întregi. Grădini acoperite. Cea mai tare noutate este că Las Vegas-ul va avea și... Marele Zid Chinezesc. Este vorba de un proiect hotelier impresionant, aflat în plină desfășurare, în valoare de circa 5 miliarde de dolari. După cum se vede nu am avut când să mai vorbim despre cazinouri. Vă spunem doar atât - sunt peste tot și vă fac cu ochiul. Depinde cât rezistați. E o chestiune de timp.\r\n\r\n@ CROAZIERĂ AERIANĂ - Deșertul ca un spectacol de culori\r\n\r\nȘtiți ce fabulos arată deșertul văzut din cer? Grand Canyon și Las Vegas Tours oferă servicii unice! Cu elicopterul sau avioanele turistice, zborurile sunte efectuate deasupra acestei minuni naturale a lumii, care concurează, fără îndoială, chiar și piramidele egiptene. Am încercat o experiență magică pe care o redăm în cuvinte și imagini fotografice. Peisajele s-au dovedit copleșitoare, spectaculoase mai ales că numai în cîteva minute culorile stâncilor și nisipului se schimbau rapid. De la cenușiu, auriu, până la albastru metalic, portocaliu, maro ori roșu cărămiziu.\r\nPrețurile zborurilor variază între 250 și 530 de dolari de persoană, în funcție de programul ales. Ca o curiozitate zborurile turistice deasupra Grand Canyon se fac din anul 1927. ”Cu noi amintirile voastre sunt gata să-și ia zborul ” - spune motto-ul companiilor aeriene care efectuază zboruri deasupra deșertului Nevada.\r\nÎn final, că așa se întâmplă în lumea turistică bună - ei și aici americani sunt imbatabili -, ți se oferă un Certificat de zbor care atestă că ai intrat în ”elita” ori clubul select al celor care au zburat deasupra Marelui Canion. La final ți se mulțumește că prin cumpărarea acestui program turistic sprijini și tu eforturile de conservare a mediului, a peisajului natural și a patrimoniilor istorice. O parte din încasările companiilor implicate, sunt direcționate către National Park Service. Instituție care gestionează acest imens teritoriu - ne precizează Brenda Halvorson, CEO al grupului aviatic Papillon Grand Canyon Airlines.\r\n\r\n@ HOOWER DAM - Un baraj pentru un președinte\r\n\r\nLa începutul anilor \'20 ai secolului trecut autoritățile americane decideau să pună capăt ravagiilor provocate de impetuosul râu Colorado, a cărui inundații produceau anual daune catastrofale. Un tânăr inginer care mai târziu va deveni politician, chiar și al 31-lea președinte al SUA, obține aprobarea unui proiect care se va derula pe parcursul mai multor ani - Barajul Hoower Dam. La început s-a numit Boulder Dam. Herbert Hoover își va pune amprenta pe construcția celebrului baraj, considerat o minune a tehnicii și a geniului creator. În 1935 are loc inaugurarea oficială a colosului energetic. El furnizează electricitate și alimentare cu apă pentru peste 20 de milioane de oameni ce trăiesc în Nevada, Arizona și California -, pentru sisteme de irigații pe o suprafață de circa 1 milion de acri de pământ fertil din Statele Unite, dar și pentru peste 500.000 de acri din Mexic. Biografia cifrică a barajului arată cam așa: baza are 201,2 metri, înălțimea maximă este de 221,3 metri, iar în partea superioară semicercul are o suprafață de 379,2 metri. La construcția barajului s-au folosit 2,6 milioane de metri cubi de beton dar și cele mai avansate tehnologii pe care le dețineau americanii la aceea oră în majoritatea domeniilor industriale - de la trenuri până la macarale gigant, de la autocamioane uriașe până la alpiniștii care plasau dinamita pe versanții înclinați ori tehnologiile de uscare rapidă a materialelor turnate. Costurile uriașei investiții s-au ridicat la 165 de milioane de dolari, care astăzi ar echivala probabil cu miliarde, și au fost recuperate din vânzarea energiei electrice. Uriașul bazin de acumulare, a creat cel mai mare lac artificial cu apă potabilă din SUA. El are 885 de kilometri de țărm, o adâncime maximă de circa 151,4 metri și este situat la o înălțime de 368,7 metri deasupra nivelului mării. În decursul anilor aici a fost creată și una dintre cele mai căutate zone de agrement a americanilor. Peste 9 milioane de turiști se bucură anual de facilitățile create: de apă, de peisajul cu vegetație aridă de... deșert. Dar și de tururile ghidate în interiorul hidrocentralei (anual trec prin măruntaiele sale circa 1 milion de vizitatori), unde dacă nu nimerești într-o zi cu noroc, poți sta la coadă ore întregi. Și industria cinematografică americană exploatează din plin tot ceea ce se oferă aici. Afli multe de la ghizii însoțitori, unii dintre ei chiar ingineri ieșiți la pensie din acest loc, care nu ratează ocazia să-ți reamintească că deși construcția gigantului energetic a presupus mari sacrificii, au existat doar 7 victime umane. Dar cireașa de pe tort, care dă bine la poveste, este că barajul mai prezintă încă o particularitate - este amplasat în două state, pe două fuse orare, drept pentru care turiștii trebuie să-și calculeze timpul pentru vizitare când după ora statului Nevada când după cel al Arizonei.\r\n\r\nBOULDER CITY - Ce au lăsat DeBoer și Wilbur Weed !\r\n\r\nEste creația barajului Hoover Dam. Pentru că șantierul a durat mai bine de un deceniu și jumătate constructorii au dorit să-și creeze o așezare după chipul și asemănarea lor. Așa s-a nascut, prin anii \'30, orașul Boulder. La început au fost create spații de cazare pentru muncitori. Planurile, extrem de îndrăznețe pentru acea vreme, au aparținut dezvoltatorului imobiliar SR DeBoer din Denver. În concepția sa orașul urma să aibă cartiere rezidențiale, străzi de birouri, zone industriale și sedii pentru autoritățile statului. Adevărate centuri de verdeață au fost concepute pentru ca să înconjoare orașul, protejându-l de furtunile de nisip ale deșertului. Toată partea peisagistică poartă semnătura marelui specialist Wilbur Weed, din Oregon. Alte amenajări au apărut în ultimii ani. Construcția și sistematizarea orașului, care avea în acea vreme circa 8.000 de locuitori și 1500 de edificii, s-a încheiat în același timp cu cea a barajului. Boulder City este o bijuterie urbanistică care a înflorit în plin deșert. O noapte petrecută în fermecătorul hotel Boulder, revitalizat cu ajutorul arhitecților locali, în stil victorian în zona recepției și a saloanelor, în timp ce camerele beneficiază de o abordare retro-design, te răsplătește pe deplin. Așezat comod în fața șemineului din hol poți urmări ritualurile orașului: plimbarea de seară, parada mașinilor de epocă pornite spre cafenele, micul dejun luat cu regularitate ”în oraș” împreună cu urmașii familiilor fondatoare, care în semn de apreciere beneficiază de saloane personalizate. Hotelul mai are o atracție la care singur nu vă așteptați. Nu ratați să vizitați muzeul privat amenajat la etajul 1, unde veți putea vedea multe din mărturiile construirii barajului Hoower Dam dar și un film din care veți înțelegeți atmosfera industrială a epocii. Ca și muzeul orașul vibrează de recunoștință și respect pentru spiritul constructiv al americanilor.\r\n\r\n@ LOST CITY - Amintiri de 8.000 de ani\r\n\r\nO altă experiență memorabilă am trăit la Orașul Pierdut din deșertul Mohave. Mai bine zis comoara din deșert - Lost City. Perioada de construcție a Barajului Hower Dam a fost marcată și de un puternic avânt ... arheologic. Forță de muncă ieftină exista din plin iar pe fondul crizei economice a anilor \'30, cel mai important lucru era să ai un loc de muncă. Pe acest teren s-a dezvoltat și spiritul de aventură, astfel că șantierele arheologice au constituit o formulă binevenită a guvernului american, care a atras și motivat zeci de mii de șomeri. În acest scop a fost organizat un imens șantier arheologic în deșert. Rezultatul - descoperirea uimitoarelor mărturii care aparțineau misterioasei culturi Anasazi Pueblo, anterioară celebrelor culturi Inca și Maya.\r\nPrimele mărturii ale trecerii omului pe aici datează de aproximativ 8.000 de ani. Primii ”anasazi” au apărut prin anii 200 e.n. Ei au creat o cultură care a înflorit până prin anii 1150. Motivele decăderii acestei civilizații nu au fost încă descoperite. În locul ei, pe la 1850, începe să se dezvolte cultura indienilor Paiute, comunitate care va avansa încet spre inima deșertului. Toate teoriile și artefactele descoperite au fost puse cap la cap. Practic, cu ajutorul guvernului, a fost creat, în sudul deșertului Mohave, Muzeul Lost City care adăpostește o mare parte din documente. Totul s-a transformat într-o poveste de succes turistic: anual trec pe aici în căutarea indienilor dispăruți din motive... naturale dar mai ales... sociale, peste 1 milion de vizitatori, în majoritatea lor grupuri de elevi, studenți, voluntari - ne spunea custodele Dena Sedar. Pentru ei se organizează numeroase activități interactive care le permit să redescopere și regândească istoria trăită, cândva, aici de Pueblo de Nevada. Poate exista o mai mare revanșă istorică și culturală?!\r\n\r\n@ LAUGHLIN - Vreți să faceți un oraș ?\r\n\r\nCe-ar fi să te oprești în mijlocul deșertului Mohave și, așa deodată să vrei să faci un oraș! Simplu, cumperi o bucată de pământ și te pui pe treabă. Așa s-a născut prin anii \'60 localitatea Laughlin, situată pe malul frumosului râu Colorado. Și, evident, orașul va purta numele fondatorului. Aflat la aproximativ 150 de kilometri de Las Vegas Laughlin se distinge prin: statuia fondatorului, care evident trăiește și este respectat de toți concetățenii; prin hotelurile de lux; o plajă cu nisip; cine romantice pe navele de croazieră Colorado Belle, unele cu zbaturi, multă verdeață și, o șaradă - e Raiul locurilor de muncă. La o populație de doar 7.000 de locuitori aici există circa 20.000 de locuri de muncă - ne spune Meg McDaniel, director al Laughlin Visitors Center. Cum așa? Foarte bine! Hotelurile din orașul de buzunar au creat acest paradox. Prețurile la cazare sunt incredibil de mici (poți obține și 19 dolari per cameră, fără a avea ”relații”). Posibilități de agrement? De aici poți pleca în turul Marelui Canyon, pe Route 66, poți face un tur al minelor de aur și argint ori pleca pe ATV-uri în aventuri în deșert. Și încă un clenci. În funcție de drumul ales te afli când în statul Nevada când în Arizona.\r\n\r\n@ OATMAN - Fii mândru că ești măgar\r\n\r\nNoi am ales să mergem în locul unde măgarii se bucură de cel mai mare respect. Sunt vedete de zeci de ani iar acest statut a fost cultivat de primăria Oatman. Am apelat la cei mai buni în domeniul tururilor turistice - Laughlin Adventure Tour. Și împreună cu ei am căutat să aflăm de ce este atât de celebră această așezare minieră, prosperă cândva, aflată pe originala și bătrâna Route 66. Azi nu mai e celebră prin zăcamintele ci prin armata de... măgari care trăiesc sălbatici, și coboară în fiecare zi, în centru orașului pentru a lua... masa. Ei s-au obișnuit să coboare zilnic din dealurile aride ale deșertului și să se plimbe agale pe străzile orașului. Îi vezi peste tot căutând hrana pe care turiștii (prin grija autorităților locale), le-o asigură din plin. Toate magazine pline cu suveniruri marca ”Route 66” și măgarii comunitari au la intrare pungi cu hrană pentru acești locuitori speciali. ! Un dolar punga. Și tot la intrare se află bucăți mari de sare.\r\nOatman a luat ființă în 1906 când explodase goana după aur în El Dorado. Pe vremurile prospere au fost câteva zeci de mii căutători de aur, care și-au încercat norocul. Azi așezarea mai numără doar... 25 de locuitori. Care s-au convertit la turism. Și începuturile cinematografiei americane sunt legate de Oatman. Nu întâmplător cei mai celebri actori care au lăsat amintiri în zonă sunt Clark Gable și soția sa Carole Lombard, care și-au petrecut luna de miere în... luxosul hotel din centru. Azi este amenajat ca muzeu și se află în plin proces de... personalizare. Cea mai tare atracție a sa este restaurantul de... 1 milion de dolari. Pe bune. Barul, scena, unde se produc zilnic concerte live cu muzică country, salonul principal, toate sunt îmbrăcate de la podea până pe tavane cu bancnote de 1, 5, 10 ori 20 de dolari, pe care turiștii trecuți pe aici și-au scris numele și un mesaj. Când intri rămâi șocat de ceea ce vezi. O extravaganță ? Nicidecum. E o comoară creată de localnici mineri și, mai recent, de cei care vin aici atrași de faima măgarilor.\r\nO istorie densă se concentrează pe nici 200 de metri cât are vechiul centru al orașului. În plus când ajungi la Oatman nu ști niciodată peste ce dai: Peste cursa cu paturi, peste concursul de prăjit ouă sau strădania ”urbanistică” de a decora totul cu bolovani și sclipici ca de aur. Cel mai frumos suvenir rămâne însă ilustrata pe care ți-o expediezi de la micul Oficiu poștal din localitate: ștampila specială o transformă într-un produs filatelic de colecție. Uitam să vă spunem ce este mai important: Orașul se află în Arizona. Ca să rămânem în peisaj, bem o bere, evident marca Route 66.\r\n\r\nTECHATTICUP - Și noi am fost în El Dorado\r\n\r\nStrăbatem câțiva zeci de kilometri și când credeam că Oatman a fost o experiență ce nu poate fi depășită iată-ne ajunși la Techatticup Mine. Aici a început să fie extras aur încă din anii 1860 iar mineritul metalului galben și-a încheiat gloria prin anii \'40 ai secolului trecut. Mina privată, aparține familiei Werly și în prezent, a devenit un obiectiv turistic de referință al deșertului Nevada. Se află în perimetrul în care a început goana după aur și, deși închisă pentru exploatare ea produce în continuare ”aur turistic”. Parcă ne-am aflat într-un muzeu tehnologic. La tot pasul suntem înconjurați de utilaje vechi de exploatare, mijloace de transport de la... Jeep-uri vintage până la camioane cu care era adus miniereul. Toate acestea sunt plasate în zona minieră, excelent amenajată pentru vizite turistice dar și clădirea principală unde se află muzeul. Nu poți să nu te întrebi privind în jur, de câtă pasiune trebuie să aibă nevoie cei doi fii ai familiei Werly, ca să trăiască într-un asemenea loc. Surpriză! Frații fac pe ghizii mai mult din hobby pentru că aici, ni se spune au fost turnate o serie de filme cu Bruce Willis, Kevin Costner etc, care au adus venituri însemnate proprietății. Mai mult în timpul unei filmări, un avion de mici dimensiuni s-a prăbușit, a rămas înfipt într-un deal, devenind și el...un obiectiv turistic. Bobbie Werly (2,10 metri înălțime), este și vedeta unui reality show TV care se bucură de mare succes în State.\r\n\r\n@ PRIMM VALLEY: Întreabă de Pete și Bonnie\r\n\r\nÎn aparență cele două nume nu se prea leagă. Decât aici la Primm Valley. După ce ai tras o duuuu...șcă de tărie ai toate motivele să te întorci prin anii \'30 ai secolului trecut și să-ți dorești să asculți povestea lui Whiskey Pete\'s. Cum a făcut el primii bani, nu mai contează. La circa 40 de kilometri de Las Vegas, și-a trântit mai întâi o benzinărie la prima intersecție de drumuri în deșert. Noroc și intuiție în același timp pentru că intersecția se află între două state, Nevada și California. Traficul din ambele direcții aduce prosperitate și așa a apărut ulterior un Hotel Casino de primă mână ce oferă 624 de camere, 6 restaurante, complex de Spa etc - ne-a precizat Jeff Swartwout, directorul de vânzări al Primm Valley Casino Resorts. Dar nu atât jocurile de noroc te atrag aici - ci cel puțin 3 zone și o poveste. În interiorul hotelului se află o expoziție despre perioada prohibiției și ”avantajele” sale pentru milioanele de dolari făcuți din contrabandă; tot aici se află expusă mașina originală, ciuruită de gloanțe ce a aparținut tâlharilor de bănci Bonnie and Clyde, autoturism în care cei doi faimoși iubiți, se aflau în momentul prinderii și uciderii lor. O altă atracție este Mall-ul Primm de peste drum, unde se află un excelent parc de distracții acoperit, dar și cu o secțiuni descoperită, galerii de magazine și restaurante. Aici poți ajunge direct din hotel traversând drumul într-un monorail ce amintește de capsulele cosmice.\r\nSigur, trebuie să știți și povestea locului care îi farmecă pe toți. Whiskey Pete\'s a fost nu numai un investitor cu o mare intuiție ci și un fan al alcoolului. Într-atât încât numitul domn a lăsat în testament o cerere extravagantă ce i-a fost respectată. El a dorit să fie înmormântat în picioare, cu o sticlă de whiskey în... brațe. Probabil ca să nu se verse. Povestea e cât se poate de adevărată. Pentru că în timpul unor lucrări de modernizare a autostrăzii, excavările au scos la iveală un asemenea mormânt. Fabulos nu?\r\n\r\n@ STRATOSPHERE - Senzații tari la etajul 106\r\n\r\nStați că n-ați scăpat! Reîntorși la Las Vegas am răspuns invitației de a vizita turnul emblematic. În vedeți în toate filmele despre oraș, așa cum din niciun film făcut la San Francisco nu lipsește Golden Bridge. Stratosphere este un... must see. O altă ”oglindă” a tehnicii și spiritului constructiv al americanilor. Dacă nu ai văzut panorama orașului de la etajul 109 poți spune că nu ai văzut Las Vegasul. Doar de acolo vă faceți o imagine cât de copleșitor este deșertul care pândește la fiecare ieșire din oraș. Cei care doresc aventură pot încerca Big Shot, Thrill Ride, X-Scream, Sky Jump sau Insanity. După ce am urmărit evoluția caruselului rotativ de la etajul... 106, suspendat la câteva sute de metri deasupra Vegasului, amatorii de senzații tari erau cam verzi la față. Noi am căutat locuri mai domestice. Stratosphere, are la trei nivele mai jos o capelă pentru ceremonii de nuntă - Chapel in the Clouds. Cei care se căsătoresc în saloanele luxoase din turn pot spune la propriu că au fost cu capul în nori. Ceremoniile de aici reprezintă doar o parte din cele 200.000 de căsători care se încheie anual la Las Vegas. Dar asta nu e tot - seara aveți ocazia să urmăriți spectacole de varietăți care aduc în prim planul scenei de cabaret, playmate Playboy, din ultimii ani. Călătoria noastră se oprește aici. Nu înainte de a vă reaminti cea mai frecventă frază întâlnită în oraș - ”Ce se întâmplă în Las Vegas, rămâne în Las Vegas!”.\r\n\r\nDOINA, SÎNZIANA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n(Fragment din Cartea

Atracții pe care nu le cunosc nici americanii\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\n\n\n\nMajoritatea turiștilor care vin în Las Vegas, caută cazinourile sale și cred că acestea sunt singura mare atracție. La fața locului ești asediat de mii de oferte turistice. Dar în mijlocul deșertului Nevada, înconjurat de mii de kilometri de sol arid, nisip și stânci, se află sute de atracții care merită văzute și... trăite.\n\nLAS VEGAS - Luxul se reinventează în fiecare zi\n\nCaesar\'s Palace este cu siguranță una dintre mărcile hoteliere emblematice ale orașului. Am avut ocazia rarisimă să ne numărăm printre cei 20 de juraliști străini agreați să viziteze locuri în care puțini vizitatori au acces. Caesar\'s Palace este un mini-oraș plin de statui vorbitoare - e drept că vorbesc și se mișcă numai la anumite ore -, cu cascade, înconjurat de localuri interioare, încadrate de veritabile bulevarde asediate de verdeață, opere de artă - picturi și sculpturi, de concerte, spectacole de carnaval. Toate dau o strălucire aparte acestor spații în care ai putea trăi fără să mai ieși din complexul hotelier. Turul, în care am fost însoțiți de către Michael Leonard, Leisure group sales manager-, a inclus apartamentele și vilele de lux ale proprietății. Da, ați citit corect, vile, nu mai puțin de 6. Trei dintre ele se află la ultimul etaj al Turnului lui Octavius, inaugurat în 2012. În fapt vorbim de 668 de camere ce poartă amprenta și design-ul marca Laurel. Premiile Forbes acordate acestui concept sunt o recunoaștere a eleganței unice a acestora. 8882 este numărul camerei ”Vila Toscana”, denumită și Vila Traian. Luxul este reflectat peste tot - șeminee din marmură venețiană, aur de 24 de karate și pietre semipreționase încrustrate în decorul băilor, o cameră multimedia tapetată cu piele naturală, aparatură de ultimă generație. Clientela are la dispoziție personal propriu 24 de ore din 24 de ore, o grădină cu plante naturale și o... piscină. Toate se află, după cum ați intuit la etajul 88. Panorama orașului este impresionantă. Ni s-au furnizat și câteva... delicatese: o noapte de cazare costă în jur de 40.000 de dolari. Categoria oaspeților este una exclusivistă și discretă. O reședință aparține artistei Celine Dion, una dintre cele mai iubite dive din Las Vegas. De alfel am avut ocazia de a o urmări într-un mini concert.\n\nTurnul lui Augustus este la fel de impresionant. Cele 952 de camere și cele 3 vile ale sale se poziționează pe aceeași linie a luxului confortabil. Restaurantele Nobu, Guy Savoy, Gordon Ramsey, Michael Richard, salonul ”Color”, conceput de Michael Boychuck, precum și ”Qua Bath Spa” sunt menite să răsfețe simțurile cu acel ”ceva”, specific luxului american. Vorbim de restaurante cotate cu stele Michelin, de premii Forbes sau de AAA Five Diamond Award. Am văzut, am fotografiat, am testat și mai ales ne-am bucurat de această șansă.\n\nCaesar\'s Palace este nu numai un simbol al luxului ci și o bijuterie tehnică. Oferă nu mai puțin de 3960 de camere, inclusiv pe cele din Turnurile amintite. Ultima noutate este Nobu Hotel cu 181 de camere. El este promovat aici drept... hotelul din hotel, pentru că noul complex a fost construit chiar interiorul complexului vizitat. Caesar\'s Palace se distinge și printr-un parfumul crinilor, răspândiți peste tot, în mii de vaze. Este floarea regilor. Astfel cei care locuiesc sau doar vizitează acest loc - și zilnic trec zeci de mii pe culoarele și prin galeriile sale -, ajung să se simtă, fără îndoială ”regii” turismului. Las Vegas e un oraș cosmopolit, iar fiecare hotel degajă atmosfera unei povești, a unui basm, a unui loc. The Venetian te invită pe Canaletto, în Piața San Marco, Turnul Eiffel e încorporat în hotelul cu același nume, New York își are complexul lui, fântânile muzicale fascinează seara în față la Bellagio, Circus Circus, este raiul copiilor și a tinerilor, cele două hoteluri Wynn ascund între ele grădini și săli de spectacole fabuloase care se întind pe kilometri întregi. Grădini acoperite. Cea mai tare noutate este că Las Vegas-ul va avea și... Marele Zid Chinezesc. Este vorba de un proiect hotelier impresionant, aflat în plină desfășurare, în valoare de circa 5 miliarde de dolari. După cum se vede nu am avut când să mai vorbim despre cazinouri. Vă spunem doar atât - sunt peste tot și vă fac cu ochiul. Depinde cât rezistați. E o chestiune de timp.\n\n@ CROAZIERĂ AERIANĂ - Deșertul ca un spectacol de culori\n\nȘtiți ce fabulos arată deșertul văzut din cer? Grand Canyon și Las Vegas Tours oferă servicii unice! Cu elicopterul sau avioanele turistice, zborurile sunte efectuate deasupra acestei minuni naturale a lumii, care concurează, fără îndoială, chiar și piramidele egiptene. Am încercat o experiență magică pe care o redăm în cuvinte și imagini fotografice. Peisajele s-au dovedit copleșitoare, spectaculoase mai ales că numai în cîteva minute culorile stâncilor și nisipului se schimbau rapid. De la cenușiu, auriu, până la albastru metalic, portocaliu, maro ori roșu cărămiziu.\nPrețurile zborurilor variază între 250 și 530 de dolari de persoană, în funcție de programul ales. Ca o curiozitate zborurile turistice deasupra Grand Canyon se fac din anul 1927. ”Cu noi amintirile voastre sunt gata să-și ia zborul ” - spune motto-ul companiilor aeriene care efectuază zboruri deasupra deșertului Nevada.\nÎn final, că așa se întâmplă în lumea turistică bună - ei și aici americani sunt imbatabili -, ți se oferă un Certificat de zbor care atestă că ai intrat în ”elita” ori clubul select al celor care au zburat deasupra Marelui Canion. La final ți se mulțumește că prin cumpărarea acestui program turistic sprijini și tu eforturile de conservare a mediului, a peisajului natural și a patrimoniilor istorice. O parte din încasările companiilor implicate, sunt direcționate către National Park Service. Instituție care gestionează acest imens teritoriu - ne precizează Brenda Halvorson, CEO al grupului aviatic Papillon Grand Canyon Airlines.\n\n@ HOOWER DAM - Un baraj pentru un președinte\n\nLa începutul anilor \'20 ai secolului trecut autoritățile americane decideau să pună capăt ravagiilor provocate de impetuosul râu Colorado, a cărui inundații produceau anual daune catastrofale. Un tânăr inginer care mai târziu va deveni politician, chiar și al 31-lea președinte al SUA, obține aprobarea unui proiect care se va derula pe parcursul mai multor ani - Barajul Hoower Dam. La început s-a numit Boulder Dam. Herbert Hoover își va pune amprenta pe construcția celebrului baraj, considerat o minune a tehnicii și a geniului creator. În 1935 are loc inaugurarea oficială a colosului energetic. El furnizează electricitate și alimentare cu apă pentru peste 20 de milioane de oameni ce trăiesc în Nevada, Arizona și California -, pentru sisteme de irigații pe o suprafață de circa 1 milion de acri de pământ fertil din Statele Unite, dar și pentru peste 500.000 de acri din Mexic. Biografia cifrică a barajului arată cam așa: baza are 201,2 metri, înălțimea maximă este de 221,3 metri, iar în partea superioară semicercul are o suprafață de 379,2 metri. La construcția barajului s-au folosit 2,6 milioane de metri cubi de beton dar și cele mai avansate tehnologii pe care le dețineau americanii la aceea oră în majoritatea domeniilor industriale - de la trenuri până la macarale gigant, de la autocamioane uriașe până la alpiniștii care plasau dinamita pe versanții înclinați ori tehnologiile de uscare rapidă a materialelor turnate. Costurile uriașei investiții s-au ridicat la 165 de milioane de dolari, care astăzi ar echivala probabil cu miliarde, și au fost recuperate din vânzarea energiei electrice. Uriașul bazin de acumulare, a creat cel mai mare lac artificial cu apă potabilă din SUA. El are 885 de kilometri de țărm, o adâncime maximă de circa 151,4 metri și este situat la o înălțime de 368,7 metri deasupra nivelului mării. În decursul anilor aici a fost creată și una dintre cele mai căutate zone de agrement a americanilor. Peste 9 milioane de turiști se bucură anual de facilitățile create: de apă, de peisajul cu vegetație aridă de... deșert. Dar și de tururile ghidate în interiorul hidrocentralei (anual trec prin măruntaiele sale circa 1 milion de vizitatori), unde dacă nu nimerești într-o zi cu noroc, poți sta la coadă ore întregi. Și industria cinematografică americană exploatează din plin tot ceea ce se oferă aici. Afli multe de la ghizii însoțitori, unii dintre ei chiar ingineri ieșiți la pensie din acest loc, care nu ratează ocazia să-ți reamintească că deși construcția gigantului energetic a presupus mari sacrificii, au existat doar 7 victime umane. Dar cireașa de pe tort, care dă bine la poveste, este că barajul mai prezintă încă o particularitate - este amplasat în două state, pe două fuse orare, drept pentru care turiștii trebuie să-și calculeze timpul pentru vizitare când după ora statului Nevada când după cel al Arizonei.\n\nBOULDER CITY - Ce au lăsat DeBoer și Wilbur Weed !\n\nEste creația barajului Hoover Dam. Pentru că șantierul a durat mai bine de un deceniu și jumătate constructorii au dorit să-și creeze o așezare după chipul și asemănarea lor. Așa s-a nascut, prin anii \'30, orașul Boulder. La început au fost create spații de cazare pentru muncitori. Planurile, extrem de îndrăznețe pentru acea vreme, au aparținut dezvoltatorului imobiliar SR DeBoer din Denver. În concepția sa orașul urma să aibă cartiere rezidențiale, străzi de birouri, zone industriale și sedii pentru autoritățile statului. Adevărate centuri de verdeață au fost concepute pentru ca să înconjoare orașul, protejându-l de furtunile de nisip ale deșertului. Toată partea peisagistică poartă semnătura marelui specialist Wilbur Weed, din Oregon. Alte amenajări au apărut în ultimii ani. Construcția și sistematizarea orașului, care avea în acea vreme circa 8.000 de locuitori și 1500 de edificii, s-a încheiat în același timp cu cea a barajului. Boulder City este o bijuterie urbanistică care a înflorit în plin deșert. O noapte petrecută în fermecătorul hotel Boulder, revitalizat cu ajutorul arhitecților locali, în stil victorian în zona recepției și a saloanelor, în timp ce camerele beneficiază de o abordare retro-design, te răsplătește pe deplin. Așezat comod în fața șemineului din hol poți urmări ritualurile orașului: plimbarea de seară, parada mașinilor de epocă pornite spre cafenele, micul dejun luat cu regularitate ”în oraș” împreună cu urmașii familiilor fondatoare, care în semn de apreciere beneficiază de saloane personalizate. Hotelul mai are o atracție la care singur nu vă așteptați. Nu ratați să vizitați muzeul privat amenajat la etajul 1, unde veți putea vedea multe din mărturiile construirii barajului Hoower Dam dar și un film din care veți înțelegeți atmosfera industrială a epocii. Ca și muzeul orașul vibrează de recunoștință și respect pentru spiritul constructiv al americanilor.\n\n@ LOST CITY - Amintiri de 8.000 de ani\n\nO altă experiență memorabilă am trăit la Orașul Pierdut din deșertul Mohave. Mai bine zis comoara din deșert - Lost City. Perioada de construcție a Barajului Hower Dam a fost marcată și de un puternic avânt ... arheologic. Forță de muncă ieftină exista din plin iar pe fondul crizei economice a anilor \'30, cel mai important lucru era să ai un loc de muncă. Pe acest teren s-a dezvoltat și spiritul de aventură, astfel că șantierele arheologice au constituit o formulă binevenită a guvernului american, care a atras și motivat zeci de mii de șomeri. În acest scop a fost organizat un imens șantier arheologic în deșert. Rezultatul - descoperirea uimitoarelor mărturii care aparțineau misterioasei culturi Anasazi Pueblo, anterioară celebrelor culturi Inca și Maya.\nPrimele mărturii ale trecerii omului pe aici datează de aproximativ 8.000 de ani. Primii ”anasazi” au apărut prin anii 200 e.n. Ei au creat o cultură care a înflorit până prin anii 1150. Motivele decăderii acestei civilizații nu au fost încă descoperite. În locul ei, pe la 1850, începe să se dezvolte cultura indienilor Paiute, comunitate care va avansa încet spre inima deșertului. Toate teoriile și artefactele descoperite au fost puse cap la cap. Practic, cu ajutorul guvernului, a fost creat, în sudul deșertului Mohave, Muzeul Lost City care adăpostește o mare parte din documente. Totul s-a transformat într-o poveste de succes turistic: anual trec pe aici în căutarea indienilor dispăruți din motive... naturale dar mai ales... sociale, peste 1 milion de vizitatori, în majoritatea lor grupuri de elevi, studenți, voluntari - ne spunea custodele Dena Sedar. Pentru ei se organizează numeroase activități interactive care le permit să redescopere și regândească istoria trăită, cândva, aici de Pueblo de Nevada. Poate exista o mai mare revanșă istorică și culturală?!\n\n@ LAUGHLIN - Vreți să faceți un oraș ?\n\nCe-ar fi să te oprești în mijlocul deșertului Mohave și, așa deodată să vrei să faci un oraș! Simplu, cumperi o bucată de pământ și te pui pe treabă. Așa s-a născut prin anii \'60 localitatea Laughlin, situată pe malul frumosului râu Colorado. Și, evident, orașul va purta numele fondatorului. Aflat la aproximativ 150 de kilometri de Las Vegas Laughlin se distinge prin: statuia fondatorului, care evident trăiește și este respectat de toți concetățenii; prin hotelurile de lux; o plajă cu nisip; cine romantice pe navele de croazieră Colorado Belle, unele cu zbaturi, multă verdeață și, o șaradă - e Raiul locurilor de muncă. La o populație de doar 7.000 de locuitori aici există circa 20.000 de locuri de muncă - ne spune Meg McDaniel, director al Laughlin Visitors Center. Cum așa? Foarte bine! Hotelurile din orașul de buzunar au creat acest paradox. Prețurile la cazare sunt incredibil de mici (poți obține și 19 dolari per cameră, fără a avea ”relații”). Posibilități de agrement? De aici poți pleca în turul Marelui Canyon, pe Route 66, poți face un tur al minelor de aur și argint ori pleca pe ATV-uri în aventuri în deșert. Și încă un clenci. În funcție de drumul ales te afli când în statul Nevada când în Arizona.\n\n@ OATMAN - Fii mândru că ești măgar\n\nNoi am ales să mergem în locul unde măgarii se bucură de cel mai mare respect. Sunt vedete de zeci de ani iar acest statut a fost cultivat de primăria Oatman. Am apelat la cei mai buni în domeniul tururilor turistice - Laughlin Adventure Tour. Și împreună cu ei am căutat să aflăm de ce este atât de celebră această așezare minieră, prosperă cândva, aflată pe originala și bătrâna Route 66. Azi nu mai e celebră prin zăcamintele ci prin armata de... măgari care trăiesc sălbatici, și coboară în fiecare zi, în centru orașului pentru a lua... masa. Ei s-au obișnuit să coboare zilnic din dealurile aride ale deșertului și să se plimbe agale pe străzile orașului. Îi vezi peste tot căutând hrana pe care turiștii (prin grija autorităților locale), le-o asigură din plin. Toate magazine pline cu suveniruri marca ”Route 66” și măgarii comunitari au la intrare pungi cu hrană pentru acești locuitori speciali. ! Un dolar punga. Și tot la intrare se află bucăți mari de sare.\nOatman a luat ființă în 1906 când explodase goana după aur în El Dorado. Pe vremurile prospere au fost câteva zeci de mii căutători de aur, care și-au încercat norocul. Azi așezarea mai numără doar... 25 de locuitori. Care s-au convertit la turism. Și începuturile cinematografiei americane sunt legate de Oatman. Nu întâmplător cei mai celebri actori care au lăsat amintiri în zonă sunt Clark Gable și soția sa Carole Lombard, care și-au petrecut luna de miere în... luxosul hotel din centru. Azi este amenajat ca muzeu și se află în plin proces de... personalizare. Cea mai tare atracție a sa este restaurantul de... 1 milion de dolari. Pe bune. Barul, scena, unde se produc zilnic concerte live cu muzică country, salonul principal, toate sunt îmbrăcate de la podea până pe tavane cu bancnote de 1, 5, 10 ori 20 de dolari, pe care turiștii trecuți pe aici și-au scris numele și un mesaj. Când intri rămâi șocat de ceea ce vezi. O extravaganță ? Nicidecum. E o comoară creată de localnici mineri și, mai recent, de cei care vin aici atrași de faima măgarilor.\nO istorie densă se concentrează pe nici 200 de metri cât are vechiul centru al orașului. În plus când ajungi la Oatman nu ști niciodată peste ce dai: Peste cursa cu paturi, peste concursul de prăjit ouă sau strădania ”urbanistică” de a decora totul cu bolovani și sclipici ca de aur. Cel mai frumos suvenir rămâne însă ilustrata pe care ți-o expediezi de la micul Oficiu poștal din localitate: ștampila specială o transformă într-un produs filatelic de colecție. Uitam să vă spunem ce este mai important: Orașul se află în Arizona. Ca să rămânem în peisaj, bem o bere, evident marca Route 66.\n\nTECHATTICUP - Și noi am fost în El Dorado\n\nStrăbatem câțiva zeci de kilometri și când credeam că Oatman a fost o experiență ce nu poate fi depășită iată-ne ajunși la Techatticup Mine. Aici a început să fie extras aur încă din anii 1860 iar mineritul metalului galben și-a încheiat gloria prin anii \'40 ai secolului trecut. Mina privată, aparține familiei Werly și în prezent, a devenit un obiectiv turistic de referință al deșertului Nevada. Se află în perimetrul în care a început goana după aur și, deși închisă pentru exploatare ea produce în continuare ”aur turistic”. Parcă ne-am aflat într-un muzeu tehnologic. La tot pasul suntem înconjurați de utilaje vechi de exploatare, mijloace de transport de la... Jeep-uri vintage până la camioane cu care era adus miniereul. Toate acestea sunt plasate în zona minieră, excelent amenajată pentru vizite turistice dar și clădirea principală unde se află muzeul. Nu poți să nu te întrebi privind în jur, de câtă pasiune trebuie să aibă nevoie cei doi fii ai familiei Werly, ca să trăiască într-un asemenea loc. Surpriză! Frații fac pe ghizii mai mult din hobby pentru că aici, ni se spune au fost turnate o serie de filme cu Bruce Willis, Kevin Costner etc, care au adus venituri însemnate proprietății. Mai mult în timpul unei filmări, un avion de mici dimensiuni s-a prăbușit, a rămas înfipt într-un deal, devenind și el...un obiectiv turistic. Bobbie Werly (2,10 metri înălțime), este și vedeta unui reality show TV care se bucură de mare succes în State.\n\n@ PRIMM VALLEY: Întreabă de Pete și Bonnie\n\nÎn aparență cele două nume nu se prea leagă. Decât aici la Primm Valley. După ce ai tras o duuuu...șcă de tărie ai toate motivele să te întorci prin anii \'30 ai secolului trecut și să-ți dorești să asculți povestea lui Whiskey Pete\'s. Cum a făcut el primii bani, nu mai contează. La circa 40 de kilometri de Las Vegas, și-a trântit mai întâi o benzinărie la prima intersecție de drumuri în deșert. Noroc și intuiție în același timp pentru că intersecția se află între două state, Nevada și California. Traficul din ambele direcții aduce prosperitate și așa a apărut ulterior un Hotel Casino de primă mână ce oferă 624 de camere, 6 restaurante, complex de Spa etc - ne-a precizat Jeff Swartwout, directorul de vânzări al Primm Valley Casino Resorts. Dar nu atât jocurile de noroc te atrag aici - ci cel puțin 3 zone și o poveste. În interiorul hotelului se află o expoziție despre perioada prohibiției și ”avantajele” sale pentru milioanele de dolari făcuți din contrabandă; tot aici se află expusă mașina originală, ciuruită de gloanțe ce a aparținut tâlharilor de bănci Bonnie and Clyde, autoturism în care cei doi faimoși iubiți, se aflau în momentul prinderii și uciderii lor. O altă atracție este Mall-ul Primm de peste drum, unde se află un excelent parc de distracții acoperit, dar și cu o secțiuni descoperită, galerii de magazine și restaurante. Aici poți ajunge direct din hotel traversând drumul într-un monorail ce amintește de capsulele cosmice.\nSigur, trebuie să știți și povestea locului care îi farmecă pe toți. Whiskey Pete\'s a fost nu numai un investitor cu o mare intuiție ci și un fan al alcoolului. Într-atât încât numitul domn a lăsat în testament o cerere extravagantă ce i-a fost respectată. El a dorit să fie înmormântat în picioare, cu o sticlă de whiskey în... brațe. Probabil ca să nu se verse. Povestea e cât se poate de adevărată. Pentru că în timpul unor lucrări de modernizare a autostrăzii, excavările au scos la iveală un asemenea mormânt. Fabulos nu?\n\n@ STRATOSPHERE - Senzații tari la etajul 106\n\nStați că n-ați scăpat! Reîntorși la Las Vegas am răspuns invitației de a vizita turnul emblematic. În vedeți în toate filmele despre oraș, așa cum din niciun film făcut la San Francisco nu lipsește Golden Bridge. Stratosphere este un... must see. O altă ”oglindă” a tehnicii și spiritului constructiv al americanilor. Dacă nu ai văzut panorama orașului de la etajul 109 poți spune că nu ai văzut Las Vegasul. Doar de acolo vă faceți o imagine cât de copleșitor este deșertul care pândește la fiecare ieșire din oraș. Cei care doresc aventură pot încerca Big Shot, Thrill Ride, X-Scream, Sky Jump sau Insanity. După ce am urmărit evoluția caruselului rotativ de la etajul... 106, suspendat la câteva sute de metri deasupra Vegasului, amatorii de senzații tari erau cam verzi la față. Noi am căutat locuri mai domestice. Stratosphere, are la trei nivele mai jos o capelă pentru ceremonii de nuntă - Chapel in the Clouds. Cei care se căsătoresc în saloanele luxoase din turn pot spune la propriu că au fost cu capul în nori. Ceremoniile de aici reprezintă doar o parte din cele 200.000 de căsători care se încheie anual la Las Vegas. Dar asta nu e tot - seara aveți ocazia să urmăriți spectacole de varietăți care aduc în prim planul scenei de cabaret, playmate Playboy, din ultimii ani. Călătoria noastră se oprește aici. Nu înainte de a vă reaminti cea mai frecventă frază întâlnită în oraș - ”Ce se întâmplă în Las Vegas, rămâne în Las Vegas!”.\n\nDOINA, SÎNZIANA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\n\n(Fragment din Cartea ”America pe care n-o cunosc nici americanii”, în curs de apariție la Casa de Editură Convexus 2000)\n\nMULȚUMIRI\nUS TRAVEL ASSOCIATION\nOLIMPIC INTERNATIONAL TURISM\nNevada Commission on Tourism\nPapillon Grand Canyon Airlines\nPink Jeep Tour\nHotelurilor: Wynn Encore, The Venetian, Caesars, Circus Circus','NEVADA - Atracții pe care nu le cunosc nici americanii, MAPAMOND nr.114','','inherit','open','open','','2400-revision','','','2013-11-02 13:24:30','2013-11-02 11:24:30','',2400,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2013/11/02/2400-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2427,1,'2013-11-02 13:29:58','2013-11-02 11:29:58','MARIA GRAPINI: „Avem prima promoție de ambasadori ai turismului!”\r\n

\r\nNanga Parbat, numit şi „Muntele destinului“, este situat în partea vestică a lanţului Himalaya, în Pakistan. Versantul Rupal, pe care au urcat alpiniştii români, este cea mai dificilă rută de escaladare a vârfului Nanga Parbat, cu particularitatea că de la tabăra de bază până în vârf este o diferenţă de peste 4.000 de metri. Dintre cei 200 de alpinişti care au atins acest vârf de-a lungul timpului, mai puţin de 20 au ales să urce pe acest spectaculos versant.

Scăldată de ape albastre și turcoaz Insula Mauritius din Oceanul Indian atrage anual circa un milion de turiști străini. Este o performanță deosebită în condițiile în care ea are numai 1,2 milioane de locuitori. Vizitatorii europeni - în top 4 figurează cei din Marea Britanie, Franța, Germania și Italia -, lasă anual aici circa 1 miliard de euro în contul vacanțelor de vis. Dacă în 2011 numărul românilor care au ajuns aici a fost de 1.055, anul trecut pe insulă au ceva mai puțini - 962 de călători. ”Prognozele pentru acest an sunt mult mai optimiste. Ne dorim cât mai mulți turiști din țara dumneavoastră pentru că sunt deosebiți, instruiți și deschiși să aprecieze tradițiile și serviciile cu care îi întâmpinăm” - a precizat în cadrul unei prezentări făcute la București, domnul Vijaye Haulder, Deputy Director al Mauritius Tourism Promotion Authority. El a fost însoțit de reprezentanți ai unor companii hoteliere, travel agenți și organizatori de evenimente tematice care au vorbit despre o parte dintre ofertele ce individualizează această destinație. Zahir Moossa, reprezentantul Luxe Voyage, a subliniat că Mauritius ”este un loc ideal pentru relaxare, iar o vacanță petrecută aici rămâne o experiență memorabilă.

Este o performanță pe care ne-am propus să o depășim pentru că orașul nostru are un mare potențial economic, cultural și istoric” - a declarat Burkhard Kieker, președintele Biroului de Turism și Congrese și al organizației de promovare Visit Berlin, în timpul unei conferințe susținută la București. Cu o populație de 3,5 milioane de locuitori, orașul a devenit destinația numărul 1 a Germaniei pe segmentul industriei de congrese și conferințe. În 2012 el a găzduit 123.900 de manifestări care au atras 10,5 milioane de participanți. Placa turnantă o reprezintă International Congress Centre - ICC Berlin, cel mai mare complex de acest gen din Europa. După finalizarea unui program de investiții el își va dubla suprafața expozițională la sfârșitul acestui an.

Cele 3 distincții i-au fost înmânate domnului Temel Kotil, CEO al Turkish Airlines, de către Edward Plaisted, CEO al Skytrax. Printre noutățile anunțate de către managementul Turkish Airlines se numără lansarea în regiunea Asia-Pacific a unei noi curse, din 29 septembrie, cu o frecvență de 4 zboruri pe săptămână, pe ruta Istanbul-Katmandu (Nepal).

\r\n\r\nvezi aici galerie foto\r\nLa invitația companiei World Travel am avut ocazia de a vizita și evalua facilitățile acestei nave care a fost inaugurată în 2007 și renovată în 2013. E are o greutate de 30.277 tone, o lungime de de 180 de metri și o lățime de 25 de metri. Numele companiei Azamara Club Cruises înseamnă, în traducere liberă, “steaua mărilor albastre ale lumii” (Aza – Albastru, Mar – Mare, Acamar – cea mai strălucitoare stea ce se poate vedea din insulele grecești). Cu o flotă relativ mică, de doar 2 vase de croazieră moderne și luxoase, din clasa Premium Deluxe, acestea au fost incluse 3 ani la rând în Top 5 cele mai bune vase de croazieră din lume din categoria lor. Pe vasele Azamara Club Cruises luxul se vede cu ochiul liber încă din momentul în care pășești la bord – pornind de la finisajele interioare și culminând cu serviciile personalizate, pline de discreție. Într-o încercare fericită, spunem noi, de a se diferenția în fața competitorilor, compania a ales să ofere itinerarii unice cu șederi prelungite în port, sau plecări noaptea cât mai târziu pentru a permite oaspețiilor să se bucure mai mult de specificul și tradițiile locale. Pe Azamara Journey ne-au impresionat ambianțele speciale existente în restaurantele Discoveries, Aqualina, Prime C, stilul elegant și prietenos, cu mobilier funcțional. O Decorurile, printre ele veritabile galerii de artă, asigură o subliniere personalizată. O altă remarcă a fost făcută în dreptul cram ei care oferă o colecție de circa 8.000 de sticle de vin, ediții limitate ori vinuri rare ce provin din podgorii celebre, din Franța, California, Argentina ori Africa de Sud. Un alt loc care ne-a atras este Looking Glass, un salon special unde vă puteți reîncărca bateriile, la o cană de ceai, după ce ați admirat marea ori v-ați întors din programele opționale. În ceea ce privește partea de întreținere și enterteinment, amintim de Azamara Spa, veritabilă oază de liniște unde puteți alege între proceduri ca thalasoterapie, masaje, tratamente faciale, remodelare corporală etc, ori de Cabaret lounge, unde seara au loc spectacole de divertisment, ori Casino Luxe, unde aveți ocazia să vă încercați norocul dar și să urmăriți, la un televizor cu ecran plat, evoluția echipei preferate.\r\nDestinațiile Azamara Club Cruises pentru anul 2013 includ Europa, Asia, America de Sud, Indiile de Vest sau Țara Sfântă. O idee bună, apreciată de către turiști, s-a dovedit a fi aceea de a putea să achiziționezi mai multe intinerarii consecutive în scopul realizării unor vacanțe prelungite care cuprind mai multe țări și continente.\r\nConstanța Zurini - coordonator marketing și vanzări al companiei World Travel, Agent General de Vânzari pentru România și Republica Moldova pentru companiile Royal Caribbean International, Celebrity Cruises si Azamara Club Cruises - ne-a declarat că în 2014, la Constanța va ancora și Azamara Quest, cea de-a doua navă a Azamara Club Cruise. Ea va sosi de 3 ori în portul românesc în cadrul programelor de croazieră pe Marea Neagră: pe 14 iunie 2014, într-o croazieră de 9 nopți (cu îmbarcare la Istanbul și sosire la Atena); pe 30 august într-o croazieră de 12 nopți (plecare și sosire la Istanbul); respectiv, pe 3 septembrie într-o croazieră de 7 nopți (plecare și sosire la Istanbul).\r\n\r\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU','TURKISH AIRLINES - ”Cea mai bună Companie aeriană din Europa”, TRANSPORTURI nr.114','','publish','open','open','','turkish-airlines-cea-mai-buna-companie-aeriana-din-europa-transporturi-nr-114','','\nhttp://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2013/11/02/o-zi-pe-azamara-journey-transporturi-nr-114/','2016-08-07 12:51:58','2016-08-07 10:51:58','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2441',0,'post','',0),(4809,1,'2016-08-07 12:51:58','2016-08-07 10:51:58','TAL Aviation - GSA pentru Air Europa și SriLankan Airlines\r\n\r\nTAL Aviation Romania - parte a companiei mondiale TAL Aviation, una dintre cele mai renumite firme specializate în reprezentarea de companii aeriene -, a fost desemnata General Sales Agent (GSA) pentru Air Europa în România și Moldova.

\n\n\n\nTURKISH AIRLINES - ”Cea mai bună Companie aeriană din Europa”\n
\nÎn cadrul ediției 2013 a Skytrax World Airline Awards Turkish Airlines a fost declarată ”Cea mai bună Companie aeriană din Europa”, pentru al treilea an consecutiv, ”Cea mai bună Companie aeriană din Sudul Europei” și operatorul aerian cu ”Cel mai bun serviciu de catering la clasa Business”. Cele 3 distincții i-au fost înmânate domnului Temel Kotil, CEO al Turkish Airlines, de către Edward Plaisted, CEO al Skytrax. Printre noutățile anunțate de către managementul Turkish Airlines se numără lansarea în regiunea Asia-Pacific a unei noi curse, din 29 septembrie, cu o frecvență de 4 zboruri pe săptămână, pe ruta Istanbul-Katmandu (Nepal). Cu aceasta Turkish va asigura servicii și conexiuni pentru 238 de destinații internaționale.\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Turkish-premiu-2.jpg\" "\\"Turkish")
\nSkytrax, marcă mondială apreciată pentru aportul la ierarhizarea ofertelor aviatice, a evaluat peste 238 de companii aeriene și 148 de aeroporturi bazându-se pe opiniile formulate de pasageri. Studiul, la care au participat peste 100 de naționalități din 160 de țări, a fost derulat pe o perioadă de 10 luni.\n\n\n\nO zi pe AZAMARA JOURNEY\n\nPortul Constanța a primit în acest an numeroase vase de croazieră. Unul dintre cele mai elegante a fost Azamara Journey, care a adus peste 1.200 de turiști străini, în două programe turistice. Primul, de 9 nopți, a avut ca port de plecare Atena (Pireu) și de sosire Istanbul (Turcia) și s-a consumat în perioada 25 mai-3 iunie. Cel de-al doilea, tot o Croazieră pe Marea Neagră, dar de 12 nopți (între10 și 30 august), a avut ca punct de îmbarcare și de sosire Istanbul.\n[gallery link=\"file\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\n\nLa invitația companiei World Travel am avut ocazia de a vizita și evalua facilitățile acestei nave care a fost inaugurată în 2007 și renovată în 2013. E are o greutate de 30.277 tone, o lungime de de 180 de metri și o lățime de 25 de metri. Numele companiei Azamara Club Cruises înseamnă, în traducere liberă, “steaua mărilor albastre ale lumii” (Aza – Albastru, Mar – Mare, Acamar – cea mai strălucitoare stea ce se poate vedea din insulele grecești). Cu o flotă relativ mică, de doar 2 vase de croazieră moderne și luxoase, din clasa Premium Deluxe, acestea au fost incluse 3 ani la rând în Top 5 cele mai bune vase de croazieră din lume din categoria lor. Pe vasele Azamara Club Cruises luxul se vede cu ochiul liber încă din momentul în care pășești la bord – pornind de la finisajele interioare și culminând cu serviciile personalizate, pline de discreție. Într-o încercare fericită, spunem noi, de a se diferenția în fața competitorilor, compania a ales să ofere itinerarii unice cu șederi prelungite în port, sau plecări noaptea cât mai târziu pentru a permite oaspețiilor să se bucure mai mult de specificul și tradițiile locale. Pe Azamara Journey ne-au impresionat ambianțele speciale existente în restaurantele Discoveries, Aqualina, Prime C, stilul elegant și prietenos, cu mobilier funcțional. O Decorurile, printre ele veritabile galerii de artă, asigură o subliniere personalizată. O altă remarcă a fost făcută în dreptul cram ei care oferă o colecție de circa 8.000 de sticle de vin, ediții limitate ori vinuri rare ce provin din podgorii celebre, din Franța, California, Argentina ori Africa de Sud. Un alt loc care ne-a atras este Looking Glass, un salon special unde vă puteți reîncărca bateriile, la o cană de ceai, după ce ați admirat marea ori v-ați întors din programele opționale. În ceea ce privește partea de întreținere și enterteinment, amintim de Azamara Spa, veritabilă oază de liniște unde puteți alege între proceduri ca thalasoterapie, masaje, tratamente faciale, remodelare corporală etc, ori de Cabaret lounge, unde seara au loc spectacole de divertisment, ori Casino Luxe, unde aveți ocazia să vă încercați norocul dar și să urmăriți, la un televizor cu ecran plat, evoluția echipei preferate.\nDestinațiile Azamara Club Cruises pentru anul 2013 includ Europa, Asia, America de Sud, Indiile de Vest sau Țara Sfântă. O idee bună, apreciată de către turiști, s-a dovedit a fi aceea de a putea să achiziționezi mai multe intinerarii consecutive în scopul realizării unor vacanțe prelungite care cuprind mai multe țări și continente.\nConstanța Zurini - coordonator marketing și vanzări al companiei World Travel, Agent General de Vânzari pentru România și Republica Moldova pentru companiile Royal Caribbean International, Celebrity Cruises si Azamara Club Cruises - ne-a declarat că în 2014, la Constanța va ancora și Azamara Quest, cea de-a doua navă a Azamara Club Cruise. Ea va sosi de 3 ori în portul românesc în cadrul programelor de croazieră pe Marea Neagră: pe 14 iunie 2014, într-o croazieră de 9 nopți (cu îmbarcare la Istanbul și sosire la Atena); pe 30 august într-o croazieră de 12 nopți (plecare și sosire la Istanbul); respectiv, pe 3 septembrie într-o croazieră de 7 nopți (plecare și sosire la Istanbul).\n\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU','TURKISH AIRLINES - ”Cea mai bună Companie aeriană din Europa”, TRANSPORTURI nr.114','','inherit','open','open','','2441-revision-v1','','','2013-11-02 13:42:44','2013-11-02 11:42:44','',2441,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2013/11/02/2441-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2492,1,'2013-11-12 13:16:59','2013-11-12 11:16:59','Intre 14 – 17 noiembrie 2013, ROMEXPO organizeaza cea de a 30-a editie a Targului de Turism al Romaniei, manifestare expozitionala de referinta pentru turismul din tara si de peste hotare.\r\n\r\nLa actuala ediţie vă aşteaptă peste 200 de companii din Romania, Austria, Bulgaria, Egipt, Germania, India, Indonezia, Iordania, Israel, Italia, Turcia si Ungaria.

\r\n\r\nNe bucuram sa putem promova deopotriva locuri din tara noastra dar si de peste hotare, pentru ca suntem convinsi ca o calatorie placută furniyează mii de amintiri frumoase. Ofertele participanţilor sunt reprezentate pe o suprafaţă de aproximativ 10.500 de metri patrati, de la destinatii exotice sau conventionale până la vacanţe aventuroase, romantice sau de relaxare.

La rândul său Corina Martin, vicepreşedinte al Asociaţiei Naţionale a Agenţiilor de Turism (ANAT) şi preşedintele FAPT a subliniat că “la actuala ediţie îşi prezintă ofertele peste 55 de agenţii membre ANAT, 3 dintre acestea venind deja cu Cataloage pentru sezonul 2014.\r\n\r\nDe asemenea Asociaţiile de Promovare Regionale prezintă numeroase destinaţii noi pentru petrecerea vacanţelor în România. În continuare în TOP 3 destinaţii interne -, se situează Valea Prahovei+Bran, Bucovina şi Transilvania”. Dragoş Răducan, vicepreşedinte al Federaţiei Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR), a arătat că acest an a fost unul al provocarilor pentru turismul romanesc, din pricina instabilitatii fiscale, “exista metode de rezolvare, iar una dintre acestea o reprezinta scaderea TVA-ului la serviciile de alimentatie publica in ceea ce priveste restaurantele de hotel. Noi solicitam acest lucru de 15 ani si avand in vedere precendentul creat de reducerea TVA-ului la produsele de panificatie, avem incredere ca se poate dispune o asemenea masură”. |În ceea ce priveste turismul balnear, “românii aleg statiunile clasice: Felix, Calimanesti, Sovata sau Vatra Dornei iar investiile de peste 200 de milioane de euro realizate in ultimii ani se vad in numarul crescut de turisti care aleg aceste zone. Incercam, de asemenea, sa recastigam cateva piete strategice, cum ar fi Germania, Austria, Israel, Italia, tarile nordice sau tarile baltice”- a spus Doamna Rodica Pencea – Secretar General, Organizatia Patronala a Turismului Balnear din Romania (OPTBR). În ceea ce priveşte ofertele ANTREC, Florentina Dospinescu, secretarul general al asociaţiei este de părere că “vizitatorii vor avea ce să aleagă de la standurile pline de tradiţii, farmec, produse manufacturate, preparate gastronomice specifice.

Dar asta e nimic pe lângă zecile de testări de vinuri, țuici și palinci, și maratoanele de kilometri buni prin pivnițele unor podgorii. La care mai adăugăm ”mixatul” la cratițe și oale, la făcutul magiunului, sarmalelor, tocănițelor, ciorbițelor, zacuștilor, la fabricarea palincii ori la prepararea și consumarea berbecului pus pe jăratec. În mod sigur am fi smuls invidia celor mai tari DJ. După cum se vede am supraviețuit tuturor experiențelor, unele dintre ele de gastronomie extremă, pentru că ne-am dovedit... profesioniști.\r\n\r\nCine suntem noi? O echipă de jurnaliști de turism, gastronomie și vinuri, dublată de travel agenți veniți din patru țări - Slovacia, Ungaria, România și Ucraina. Primii au căutat noi idei de reportaje ceilalți au evaluat punerea în practică a unor programe turistice transfrontaliere concepute în cadrul proiectului ”Carpathian Culinary Heritage Network” implementat de către ”Tourist Association of Ivano-Frankivsk Region” din Ucraina, în parteneriat cu organizații ori instituții de stat din țările amintite. Proiectul beneficiază de susținere financiară europeană și are ca tematică identificarea și punerea în valoare a patrimoniilor culinare din aceste zone precarpatice și carpatice, extrem de diverse, unice, naturale și pline de savoare. În aprilie 2012 a și fost fondată în acest scop Rețeaua Patrimoniului Culinar Carpatic - ne-a precizat Roman Shevchyk, directorul executiv al organizației amintite.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSLOVACIA: Altă poveste despre Tokaj\r\n
![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Slovacia-Culinar-038.jpg\" "\\"Slovacia")
Merită să aflați. Vinurile de Tokaj, nu sunt un monopol al producătorilor din Ungaria. E drept regiunea este deținută în proporție de 90% de aceștia. 10% însă, se află peste dealuri, adică în Slovacia unde podgoriile din regiunea de Tokaj, udate de apele aceluiași râu Bodrog și influențate de același Botrytis Cinerea nobil, au dat naștere la tipuri și gusturi diferite. Ocazia pentru a le testa ne-a fost oferită de către Pensiunea ”Tokaj Ostrozovic”. O proprietate integrată, fondată în 1990 de compania J&J Ostrozovic”, cea mai veche firmă producătoare de vinuri din partea slovacă a regiuni Tokaj.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Slovacia-Culinar-033.jpg\" "\\"Slovacia")
\r\nInvestitorii - Jarka și Jaro Ostrozovic -, au dedicat din cele 55 de hectare de viță de vie, 8 pentru turism, restaurant și crame. Zona oferă numeroase opotunități de relaxare, turism viticol și cazare direct la cultivatorii de viță de vie. Spre deosebire de gama de vinuri Tokaj din Ungaria, renumite pentru culoarea aurie și savoarea dulce a lor, aici se produce o gamă mai diversă ce se regăsește în vinuri albe, roze, roșii. Mi-au reținut atenția gama Solaris - cu un Furmint de zile mari, Saturnia - cu un Tokaj cuvee excepțional și, nu în ultimul rând, Roze-ul din colecția Abbrevio. Cramele sunt relativ noi. Cu toate acestea calitatea unor vinuri a fost răsplătită cu medalii de aur, argint și bronz la concursuri internaționale de la Bruxelles, Madrid, California, dar și la cele naționale. Un punctaj excelent a fost acordat pensiunii, amplasată într-un spațiu confortabil, asigurat prin îmbinarea lemnului cu tehnologiile eco.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Slovacia-Culinar-019.jpg\" "\\"Slovacia")
Din Crame am ajuns să facem tăiței, adică paste după niște rețete originale. Gazdele de la fabrica de macaroane Kuk&Fuk ne-au familiarizat despre secretul preparării acestora. Compania, amplasată în satul Mala Ida din vecinătatea orașului Kosice este singura din Slovacia care face paste din 6 ouă. Zilnic pe porțile micii întreprinderi, o afacere prosperă pentru comunitate, ies 3,5 tone de paste fabricate în 7 sortimente. Produsele sunt foarte căutate pentru calitatea lor, certificată la standarde europene. Un scurt popas am făcut și la Tara Rancho unde se speră realizarea unor activități turistice educaționale pentru copii și tineret.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Culinar-055.jpg\" "\\"Culinar")

După vizitarea Centrului de informare locală din Vasarosnameny (specialiștilor noștri le recomand să vină și să ia notițe de organizare și dotare), un orășel de căteva mii de locuitori, de unde am putut procura pliante inclusiv în limba română, am trecut la fapte.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Ungaria-Culinar-071.jpg\" "\\"Ungaria")

Prima, parcă soră geamănă a bisericilor maramureșene din lemn, e numită deseori ”o Notre Dame desculță”, pentru elementele sale decorative. Impresionant este interiorul tavanul pictat cu motive florale, păstrate de vreo 700 de ani. Aceleași motive se regăsesc și la artizanii din sat care mai lucrează încă broderie în cruce și puncte pentru utilitățile casnice dar și turistice. Cea din Takos facinează prin frescele medievale unicat care au fost salvate de vremurile ostile.\r\n\r\nFrescele au frumoase linii bizantine, și lucru nemaiîntîlnit, toate figurile sfinților de pe pereți zîmbesc. Or ști ele de ce! Poate ca să ne atragă atenția că tradițiile și comorile culinare din zona transcarpatică sunt o comoară care poate asigura resurse pentru viitoarele generații.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Ungaria-Culinar-1011.jpg\" "\\"Ungaria")

Echipa românească s-a dovedit a fi cea mai tare. Ca și la cursurile de făcut gem din prune.

După ani de zile, trei tineri, care nu aveau nimic de-a face cu producția de spirtoase, au venit de la oraș, au cumpărat locul aflat în paragină, în scopul renașterii acestei tradiții.

zâmbesc îngerii de la Takos !\n\nNu știu cîți dintre dumneavoastră ați avut ocazia ca în numai cinci zile să faceți turism pe Drumul prunelor, apoi printre franjuri de tăiței într-o făbricuță eco, că doar asta-i moda acum, să vă delectați cu un meniu Pop Art într-un restaurant eco? Dar asta e nimic pe lângă zecile de testări de vinuri, țuici și palinci, și maratoanele de kilometri buni prin pivnițele unor podgorii. La care mai adăugăm ”mixatul” la cratițe și oale, la făcutul magiunului, sarmalelor, tocănițelor, ciorbițelor, zacuștilor, la fabricarea palincii ori la prepararea și consumarea berbecului pus pe jăratec. În mod sigur am fi smuls invidia celor mai tari DJ. După cum se vede am supraviețuit tuturor experiențelor, unele dintre ele de gastronomie extremă, pentru că ne-am dovedit... profesioniști.\n\nCine suntem noi? O echipă de jurnaliști de turism, gastronomie și vinuri, dublată de travel agenți veniți din patru țări - Slovacia, Ungaria, România și Ucraina. Primii au căutat noi idei de reportaje ceilalți au evaluat punerea în practică a unor programe turistice transfrontaliere concepute în cadrul proiectului ”Carpathian Culinary Heritage Network” implementat de către ”Tourist Association of Ivano-Frankivsk Region” din Ucraina, în parteneriat cu organizații ori instituții de stat din țările amintite. Proiectul beneficiază de susținere financiară europeană și are ca tematică identificarea și punerea în valoare a patrimoniilor culinare din aceste zone precarpatice și carpatice, extrem de diverse, unice, naturale și pline de savoare. În aprilie 2012 a și fost fondată în acest scop Rețeaua Patrimoniului Culinar Carpatic - ne-a precizat Roman Shevchyk, directorul executiv al organizației amintite.\n\n\n\nSLOVACIA: Altă poveste despre Tokaj\n
Merită să aflați. Vinurile de Tokaj, nu sunt un monopol al producătorilor din Ungaria. E drept regiunea este deținută în proporție de 90% de aceștia. 10% însă, se află peste dealuri, adică în Slovacia unde podgoriile din regiunea de Tokaj, udate de apele aceluiași râu Bodrog și influențate de același Botrytis Cinerea nobil, au dat naștere la tipuri și gusturi diferite. Ocazia pentru a le testa ne-a fost oferită de către Pensiunea ”Tokaj Ostrozovic”. O proprietate integrată, fondată în 1990 de compania J&J Ostrozovic”, cea mai veche firmă producătoare de vinuri din partea slovacă a regiuni Tokaj. Investitorii - Jarka și Jaro Ostrozovic -, au dedicat din cele 55 de hectare de viță de vie, 8 pentru turism, restaurant și crame. Zona oferă numeroase opotunități de relaxare, turism viticol și cazare direct la cultivatorii de viță de vie. Spre deosebire de gama de vinuri Tokaj din Ungaria, renumite pentru culoarea aurie și savoarea dulce a lor, aici se produce o gamă mai diversă ce se regăsește în vinuri albe, roze, roșii. Mi-au reținut atenția gama Solaris - cu un Furmint de zile mari, Saturnia - cu un Tokaj cuvee excepțional și, nu în ultimul rând, Roze-ul din colecția Abbrevio. Cramele sunt relativ noi. Cu toate acestea calitatea unor vinuri a fost răsplătită cu medalii de aur, argint și bronz la concursuri internaționale de la Bruxelles, Madrid, California, dar și la cele naționale. Un punctaj excelent a fost acordat pensiunii, amplasată într-un spațiu confortabil, asigurat prin îmbinarea lemnului cu tehnologiile eco.\nDin Crame am ajuns să facem tăiței, adică paste după niște rețete originale. Gazdele de la fabrica de macaroane Kuk&Fuk ne-au familiarizat despre secretul preparării acestora. Compania, amplasată în satul Mala Ida din vecinătatea orașului Kosice este singura din Slovacia care face paste din 6 ouă. Zilnic pe porțile micii întreprinderi, o afacere prosperă pentru comunitate, ies 3,5 tone de paste fabricate în 7 sortimente. Produsele sunt foarte căutate pentru calitatea lor, certificată la standarde europene. Un scurt popas am făcut și la Tara Rancho unde se speră realizarea unor activități turistice educaționale pentru copii și tineret.\n\n\n\nUNGARIA: La palincă înainte\n\nEi, n-a fost chiar așa.

Expresiile ei au rădăcini și reflexe adânci. Toate au crescut pe un teren dominat de starea de suficiență, comoditate și sictir, pe care o întâlneam pe vremea când printul și TV aveau monopolul în promovarea turistică.\r\n
\r\n\r\nPe atunci, aproape invariabil, când abordam o discuție privitoare la publicitarea și mediatizarea unor concepte din industrie, nici nu apucam să dezvolt o propunere că mi se răspundea: ”Nu avem nevoie de publicitate pentru că turiștii care vin și pleacă mulțumiți de la noi, ne promovează din gură în gură în cercul de prieteni. Vizitatorii mulțumiți ne trimit și mai mulți turiști.” Kit-ul e inspirat din frazele devenite aproape slogan, cum că ”O fotografie face cât o mie de cuvinte!”, drept urmare și ”Un client mulțumit, face cât zeci de reclame!” E posibil. Dar nu este o regulă. Pentru că și un cuvânt poate valora cât o mie de fotografii, iar un client nemulțumit poate devasta încasările unui operator turistic.\r\n\r\nPromovarea din gură în gură este o opțiune. Se mai întâlnește în țările slab dezvoltate, care încă fac turism oral, n-au acces la publicațiile de turism - print ori online, nu contează -, și încă nu s-au cățărat pe scările Internetului. Promovarea turistică din gură în gură este gratuită în timp ce publicitatea costă bani. Aici se ascunde de fapt drama unor companii turistice, ai căror patroni și manageri au decăzut psihic într-atât, încât se încuie în birou de dimineața până seara, obsedați să-și numere și renumere banii lor, nu ai băncilor. Ați observat, prin septembrie, când se stinge sezonul pe litoral, valurile au un sunet ciudat - redau parcă foșnetul banilor. E doar o glumă!?\r\n\r\nHai să fim serioși! Promovarea din gură în gură e o mare tromboneală. Pentru că ea se referă la turiștii care ajung într-un anumit loc. La prima strigare însă ei și-au definit opțiunile după ce au consumat o porție consistentă de publicitate turistică. Costă mulți bani? Da, dar și aduce pe măsură. Puteți trăi fără această investiție? Atunci rămâneți la turismul și promovarea orală. Unora ar putea să vă meargă bine, dacă Ministerul ori Autoritatea de profil vor promova în viitor România și prin programe de turism sexual.

Cu Air Europa pasagerii pot descoperi Insulele Caraibe, Punta Cana, Havana, Cancun dar și destinații din America de Sud. Air Europa este singurul transportator european care operează zboruri către Montevideo, Uruguay și Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Bolivia având curse directe dinspre Spania/Europa spre aceste destinații. În Europa, compania efectuează curse spre Amsterdam, Bruxelles, Lisabona, Londra, Milano, Paris și Roma. De anul viitor va începe operarea către Frankfurt și Munchen. Conform FlightStats - Air Europa, se află în Top 10 “Cele mai punctuale companii aeriene din lume”.\r\n\r\n\r\nDe asemenea oficialii TAL Aviation Romania au anunțat obținerea reprezentării companiei SriLankan Airlines. Prin aceasta se oferă călătorilor români noi oportunități de a descoperi și testa ospitalitatea și experiența de zbor către Sri Lanka, care este cunoscută ca insula care oferă cea mai mare diversitate, în ceea ce privește patrimoniile naturale și culturale. Este o destinație ce poate fi vizitată pe tot parcusul anului și care ofera turistului plaje exotice, jungle luxuriante, parcuri naționale cu o faună fascinantă, dar și binefacerile celebrelor centre Ayurveda. Din România, pasagerii se pot bucura de toate aceste oportunități, călătorind cu bilete validate SriLankan Airlines pe rute dinspre București prin Roma sau Londra către Colombo dar și mai departe cum ar fi Male, Bangkok, Singapore, Karachi. În 2013, Sri Lanka ocupă un loc fruntaș în topul destinațiilor turistice mondiale.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nTURKISH AIRLINES - ”Cea mai bună Companie aeriană din Europa”\r\n
\r\nÎn cadrul ediției 2013 a Skytrax World Airline Awards Turkish Airlines a fost declarată ”Cea mai bună Companie aeriană din Europa”, pentru al treilea an consecutiv, ”Cea mai bună Companie aeriană din Sudul Europei” și operatorul aerian cu ”Cel mai bun serviciu de catering la clasa Business”. Cele 3 distincții i-au fost înmânate domnului Temel Kotil, CEO al Turkish Airlines, de către Edward Plaisted, CEO al Skytrax. Printre noutățile anunțate de către managementul Turkish Airlines se numără lansarea în regiunea Asia-Pacific a unei noi curse, din 29 septembrie, cu o frecvență de 4 zboruri pe săptămână, pe ruta Istanbul-Katmandu (Nepal). Cu aceasta Turkish va asigura servicii și conexiuni pentru 238 de destinații internaționale.\r\n\r\nSkytrax, marcă mondială apreciată pentru aportul la ierarhizarea ofertelor aviatice, a evaluat peste 238 de companii aeriene și 148 de aeroporturi bazându-se pe opiniile formulate de pasageri. Studiul, la care au participat peste 100 de naționalități din 160 de țări, a fost derulat pe o perioadă de 10 luni.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nO zi pe AZAMARA JOURNEY\r\n\r\nPortul Constanța a primit în acest an numeroase vase de croazieră.

Cu Air Europa pasagerii pot descoperi Insulele Caraibe, Punta Cana, Havana, Cancun dar și destinații din America de Sud. Air Europa este singurul transportator european care operează zboruri către Montevideo, Uruguay și Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Bolivia având curse directe dinspre Spania/Europa spre aceste destinații. În Europa, compania efectuează curse spre Amsterdam, Bruxelles, Lisabona, Londra, Milano, Paris și Roma. De anul viitor va începe operarea către Frankfurt și Munchen. Conform FlightStats - Air Europa, se află în Top 10 “Cele mai punctuale companii aeriene din lume”.\r\n
\r\n\r\nDe asemenea oficialii TAL Aviation Romania au anunțat obținerea reprezentării companiei SriLankan Airlines. Prin aceasta se oferă călătorilor români noi oportunități de a descoperi și testa ospitalitatea și experiența de zbor către Sri Lanka, care este cunoscută ca insula care oferă cea mai mare diversitate, în ceea ce privește patrimoniile naturale și culturale. Este o destinație ce poate fi vizitată pe tot parcusul anului și care ofera turistului plaje exotice, jungle luxuriante, parcuri naționale cu o faună fascinantă, dar și binefacerile celebrelor centre Ayurveda. Din România, pasagerii se pot bucura de toate aceste oportunități, călătorind cu bilete validate SriLankan Airlines pe rute dinspre București prin Roma sau Londra către Colombo dar și mai departe cum ar fi Male, Bangkok, Singapore, Karachi. În 2013, Sri Lanka ocupă un loc fruntaș în topul destinațiilor turistice mondiale.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nTURKISH AIRLINES - ”Cea mai bună Companie aeriană din Europa”\r\n
\r\nÎn cadrul ediției 2013 a Skytrax World Airline Awards Turkish Airlines a fost declarată ”Cea mai bună Companie aeriană din Europa”, pentru al treilea an consecutiv, ”Cea mai bună Companie aeriană din Sudul Europei” și operatorul aerian cu ”Cel mai bun serviciu de catering la clasa Business”. Cele 3 distincții i-au fost înmânate domnului Temel Kotil, CEO al Turkish Airlines, de către Edward Plaisted, CEO al Skytrax. Printre noutățile anunțate de către managementul Turkish Airlines se numără lansarea în regiunea Asia-Pacific a unei noi curse, din 29 septembrie, cu o frecvență de 4 zboruri pe săptămână, pe ruta Istanbul-Katmandu (Nepal). Cu aceasta Turkish va asigura servicii și conexiuni pentru 238 de destinații internaționale.\r\n\r\nSkytrax, marcă mondială apreciată pentru aportul la ierarhizarea ofertelor aviatice, a evaluat peste 238 de companii aeriene și 148 de aeroporturi bazându-se pe opiniile formulate de pasageri. Studiul, la care au participat peste 100 de naționalități din 160 de țări, a fost derulat pe o perioadă de 10 luni.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nO zi pe AZAMARA JOURNEY\r\n\r\nPortul Constanța a primit în acest an numeroase vase de croazieră. Unul dintre cele mai elegante a fost Azamara Journey, care a adus peste 1.200 de turiști străini, în două programe turistice. Primul, de 9 nopți, a avut ca port de plecare Atena (Pireu) și de sosire Istanbul (Turcia) și s-a consumat în perioada 25 mai-3 iunie. Cel de-al doilea, tot o Croazieră pe Marea Neagră, dar de 12 nopți (între10 și 30 august), a avut ca punct de îmbarcare și de sosire Istanbul.\r\n
\r\n\r\nLa invitația companiei World Travel am avut ocazia de a vizita și evalua facilitățile acestei nave care a fost inaugurată în 2007 și renovată în 2013. E are o greutate de 30.277 tone, o lungime de de 180 de metri și o lățime de 25 de metri. Numele companiei Azamara Club Cruises înseamnă, în traducere liberă, “steaua mărilor albastre ale lumii” (Aza – Albastru, Mar – Mare, Acamar – cea mai strălucitoare stea ce se poate vedea din insulele grecești). Cu o flotă relativ mică, de doar 2 vase de croazieră moderne și luxoase, din clasa Premium Deluxe, acestea au fost incluse 3 ani la rând în Top 5 cele mai bune vase de croazieră din lume din categoria lor. Pe vasele Azamara Club Cruises luxul se vede cu ochiul liber încă din momentul în care pășești la bord – pornind de la finisajele interioare și culminând cu serviciile personalizate, pline de discreție. Într-o încercare fericită, spunem noi, de a se diferenția în fața competitorilor, compania a ales să ofere itinerarii unice cu șederi prelungite în port, sau plecări noaptea cât mai târziu pentru a permite oaspețiilor să se bucure mai mult de specificul și tradițiile locale. Pe Azamara Journey ne-au impresionat ambianțele speciale existente în restaurantele Discoveries, Aqualina, Prime C, stilul elegant și prietenos, cu mobilier funcțional. O Decorurile, printre ele veritabile galerii de artă, asigură o subliniere personalizată. O altă remarcă a fost făcută în dreptul cram ei care oferă o colecție de circa 8.000 de sticle de vin, ediții limitate ori vinuri rare ce provin din podgorii celebre, din Franța, California, Argentina ori Africa de Sud. Un alt loc care ne-a atras este Looking Glass, un salon special unde vă puteți reîncărca bateriile, la o cană de ceai, după ce ați admirat marea ori v-ați întors din programele opționale. În ceea ce privește partea de întreținere și enterteinment, amintim de Azamara Spa, veritabilă oază de liniște unde puteți alege între proceduri ca thalasoterapie, masaje, tratamente faciale, remodelare corporală etc, ori de Cabaret lounge, unde seara au loc spectacole de divertisment, ori Casino Luxe, unde aveți ocazia să vă încercați norocul dar și să urmăriți, la un televizor cu ecran plat, evoluția echipei preferate.\r\nDestinațiile Azamara Club Cruises pentru anul 2013 includ Europa, Asia, America de Sud, Indiile de Vest sau Țara Sfântă.

Targul de Turism al Romaniei este locul ideal pentru cei care inca nu s-au hotarat asupra locului unde isi vor petrece vacanta de sfarsit de an, dar si pentru cei care vor sa-si programeze inca de pe acum destinatiile concediilor de anul viitor.“Şi cu această editie venim in intampinarea celor care inca îşi caută vacanţe memorabile. Prin faptul ca in acelasi loc, timp de patru zile, vizitatorii pot selecta destinatii si preturi din Romania dar si din lumea intreaga, putem spune ca Targul de Turism al Romaniei este o calatorie in cautarea destinatiei ideale.\n\nNe bucuram sa putem promova deopotriva locuri din tara noastra dar si de peste hotare, pentru ca suntem convinsi ca o calatorie placută furniyează mii de amintiri frumoase. Ofertele participanţilor sunt reprezentate pe o suprafaţă de aproximativ 10.500 de metri patrati, de la destinatii exotice sau conventionale până la vacanţe aventuroase, romantice sau de relaxare. Alături de destinaţiile româneşti vizitatorii vor avea de ales dintr-o multitudine de alte atracţii dintre care menţionăm doar de cele din: Kenya, Dubai, Austria, Franta, Germania, Punta Cana, Ungaria etc”, declara Mariana Suciu, Director General ROMEXPO S.A, la conferinţa de presă organizată cu câteva zile înainte de deschiderea TTR. La rândul său Corina Martin, vicepreşedinte al Asociaţiei Naţionale a Agenţiilor de Turism (ANAT) şi preşedintele FAPT a subliniat că “la actuala ediţie îşi prezintă ofertele peste 55 de agenţii membre ANAT, 3 dintre acestea venind deja cu Cataloage pentru sezonul 2014.\n\nDe asemenea Asociaţiile de Promovare Regionale prezintă numeroase destinaţii noi pentru petrecerea vacanţelor în România. În continuare în TOP 3 destinaţii interne -, se situează Valea Prahovei+Bran, Bucovina şi Transilvania”. Dragoş Răducan, vicepreşedinte al Federaţiei Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR), a arătat că acest an a fost unul al provocarilor pentru turismul romanesc, din pricina instabilitatii fiscale, “exista metode de rezolvare, iar una dintre acestea o reprezinta scaderea TVA-ului la serviciile de alimentatie publica in ceea ce priveste restaurantele de hotel. Noi solicitam acest lucru de 15 ani si avand in vedere precendentul creat de reducerea TVA-ului la produsele de panificatie, avem incredere ca se poate dispune o asemenea masură”. |În ceea ce priveste turismul balnear, “românii aleg statiunile clasice: Felix, Calimanesti, Sovata sau Vatra Dornei iar investiile de peste 200 de milioane de euro realizate in ultimii ani se vad in numarul crescut de turisti care aleg aceste zone. Incercam, de asemenea, sa recastigam cateva piete strategice, cum ar fi Germania, Austria, Israel, Italia, tarile nordice sau tarile baltice”- a spus Doamna Rodica Pencea – Secretar General, Organizatia Patronala a Turismului Balnear din Romania (OPTBR). În ceea ce priveşte ofertele ANTREC, Florentina Dospinescu, secretarul general al asociaţiei este de părere că “vizitatorii vor avea ce să aleagă de la standurile pline de tradiţii, farmec, produse manufacturate, preparate gastronomice specifice. Ţin să reamintesc că există finalizat un Calendar anual de evenimente pe care Antrec l-a consolidat şi-l sprijină, un instrument util pentru turiştii români dar şi străini”.\n\nINFORMAŢII UTILE\nIn cadrul celor patru pavilioane destinate evenimentului, cei care il vor vizita vor gasi:\n- agentii de turism, touroperatori, unitati de cazare si alimentatie publica, participari oficiale internationale in Pavilioanele C 1 si C 2\n- participari oficiale locale si nationale, atractii turistice din Romania – in Pavilionul C 3\n- participari oficiale locale si regionale, atractii turistice din Romania si din strainatate – in Pavilionul C 4\nUna dintre noutatile acestei editii o constituie prezenta in premiera, cu pavilion oficial, a Iordaniei, una dintre cele mai ospitaliere tari ale lumii, situata in Orientul Apropiat.\nIn aceeasi perioada cu Targul de Turism al Romaniei, la ROMEXPO va mai avea loc ROMHOTEL- Expozitia internationala de echipamente, dotari si mobilier pentru hoteluri si restaurante.\nProgramul de vizitare al evenimentelor este:\n14 - 16 noiembrie 2013 intre orele 10.00 - 18.00\n17 noiembrie 2013 intre orele 10.00 - 16.00\nPretul unui bilet de acces – 15 lei\nAlte informaţii puteţi afla la adresa: www.targuldeturism.ro\nTRAVELLER MAGAZIN ESTE PARTENER MEDIA AL MANIFESTĂRII','Targului de Turism al României – ocolul pământului în 4 zile ','','inherit','open','open','','2492-revision','','','2013-11-12 13:15:33','2013-11-12 11:15:33','',2492,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2013/11/12/2492-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2496,1,'2013-11-02 13:35:16','2013-11-02 11:35:16','KIEKER: ”Berlinul se află în Top 3 !”\r\n\r\n\r\n”25 de milioane de nopți de cazare. Peste 10,8 milioane de vizitatori au consumat anul trecut atracțiile Berlinului. Noul record turistic a urcat metropola germană în primele 3 destinații europene, după Londra și Paris. Este o performanță pe care ne-am propus să o depășim pentru că orașul nostru are un mare potențial economic, cultural și istoric” - a declarat Burkhard Kieker, președintele Biroului de Turism și Congrese și al organizației de promovare Visit Berlin, în timpul unei conferințe susținută la București. Cu o populație de 3,5 milioane de locuitori, orașul a devenit destinația numărul 1 a Germaniei pe segmentul industriei de congrese și conferințe. În 2012 el a găzduit 123.900 de manifestări care au atras 10,5 milioane de participanți. Placa turnantă o reprezintă International Congress Centre - ICC Berlin, cel mai mare complex de acest gen din Europa. După finalizarea unui program de investiții el își va dubla suprafața expozițională la sfârșitul acestui an. Astfel, în 2014 complexul va figura în primele 5 destinații internaționale pentru turismul de conferințe și expoziții.\r\n\r\n\r\nAceste performanțe sunt susținute de o infrastructură turistică extrem de generoasă. Orașul deține 3 site-uri ce fac parte din Patromoniul mondial UNESCO. 180 de muzee și clădiri memoriale care reflectă 775 de istorie urbană. Vizitatorii au la dispoziție circa 780 de hoteluri și alte unități de cazare, cu o capacitate de circa 138.000 de paturi. Ei se pot delecta în 11.234 de restaurante, shack-uri și cafenele la care se adaugă 2.318 baruri, pub-uri și cluburi. 12 dintre ele sunt clasificate cu 16 stele Michelin. Sunt doar câteva argumente care explică de ce Berlinul este foarte căutat și de către gurmanzi - a mai arătat Kieker.\r\nM. CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nMAURITIUS este un magnet pentru ROMÂNI\r\n
Scăldată de ape albastre și turcoaz Insula Mauritius din Oceanul Indian atrage anual circa un milion de turiști străini. Este o performanță deosebită în condițiile în care ea are numai 1,2 milioane de locuitori. Vizitatorii europeni - în top 4 figurează cei din Marea Britanie, Franța, Germania și Italia -, lasă anual aici circa 1 miliard de euro în contul vacanțelor de vis. Dacă în 2011 numărul românilor care au ajuns aici a fost de 1.055, anul trecut pe insulă au ceva mai puțini - 962 de călători. ”Prognozele pentru acest an sunt mult mai optimiste. Ne dorim cât mai mulți turiști din țara dumneavoastră pentru că sunt deosebiți, instruiți și deschiși să aprecieze tradițiile și serviciile cu care îi întâmpinăm” - a precizat în cadrul unei prezentări făcute la București, domnul Vijaye Haulder, Deputy Director al Mauritius Tourism Promotion Authority. El a fost însoțit de reprezentanți ai unor companii hoteliere, travel agenți și organizatori de evenimente tematice care au vorbit despre o parte dintre ofertele ce individualizează această destinație. Zahir Moossa, reprezentantul Luxe Voyage, a subliniat că Mauritius ”este un loc ideal pentru relaxare, iar o vacanță petrecută aici rămâne o experiență memorabilă. Nu întâmplător Mauritius este cunoscută și ca o destinație ideală pentru petrecerea lunii de miere”.\r\nDe asemenea Peter Schmidt, directorul de vânzări și marketing a companiei Sun Resorts Ltd, a prezentat facilitățile hoteliere apreciind că serviciile oferite în hotelurile de pe insulă se exprimă printr-un lux accesibil.\r\n\r\nPrincipalele agenții care vând destinația pe piața românească sunt Paralela 45, Prestige Tours si Dertour. Ele au organizat anul acesta primul zbor charter direct din România spre această destinație în perioada sărbătorilor de iarnă.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Ovidiu-Olteanu.jpg\" "\\"Ovidiu")

\r\nConcursul - organizat de către Asociația Națională a Maître D\'Hotel (ANMH), cu ajutorul sponsorilor și partenerilor săi (Traveller Magazin a fost unul dintre aceștia) a constat în susținerea a două probe practice, devenite tradiționale.\r\n\r\nPrepararea și servirea biftecului tartar (mușchi de vacă tocat cu satârul și servit crud) a dat mult de lucru finaliștilor. Ei au trebuit să pună în valoare toate ingredientele necesare, selectate pentru asezonare de către client: 150 de grame de carne, un gălbenuș de ou, capere sau castraveciori murați tocați, pătrunjel și ceapă tocate, muștar, sare, piper, sos englezesc, tabasco, ulei, jumătate de lămâie și, opțional, ketchup. Cea de-a două probă - Clătite flambate -, a fost mult mai spectaculoasă și a creat mai multă tensiune în rândul participanților. După cum era de așteptat pregătirea a inclus mai multe elemente de rutină - tacâmuri, cărucior, ingredientele necesare pentru 4 clătitele (60 grame de unt, 6 cuburi de zahăr, două linguri de zahăr pudră, o lămâie, o portocală sau mandarină, 50 de grame de coniac, lichior de portocale sau triple sec. Spectacolul a culminat cu flambarea clătitelor, procedeu ce atrage întotdeauna punctajul juriului și aplauzele participanților. În ceea ce privește prepararea produsului există mai multe rețete, iar finaliștii au arătat că au aprofundat o parte dintre ele. ”Sunt foarte încântat de modul în care s-au prezentat concurenții.

Conform evaluãrilor lui Gheorghe Fodoreanu, liderul agenției de turism Invitation Romania, evenimentul a atras peste 1500 de turiști strãini sosiți în cadrul unor programe oferite de travel agenții autohtoni, din țãri ca Franța, Marea Britanie, SUA, Canada, Italia, Belgia, Germania, Austria, Elveția, dar și din mai multe țãri asiatice. ”Din punct de vedere al rețetei financiare numai compania noastrã care a asigurat servicii pentru 940 de vizitatori, a încasat circa 470.000 de euro. Am derulat mai multe proiecte-program împreunã cu parteneri internaționali din sfera muzicalã. De un mare succes s-au bucurat Croazierele Muzicale pe Dunãrece au avut ca extensii atracții de top precum Bucureștiul, Delta Dunãrii ori Castelele Transilvaniei. Sunt convins cã prin parteneriatul dezvoltat de agențiile de turism și Artexim, condus de directorul general Mihai Constantinescu, Festivalul Internațional George Enescu a devenit unul dintre cei mai vizibili vectori de promovare a României.

Organizatorii - Asociatia pentru Promovarea si Dezvoltarea Turismului Prahova (APDT Prahova) respectiv Asociația similarã din Brașov - au anunțat cã info-evenimentul cu acest nume va avea ca arie de exprimare stațiunile Sinaia, Busteni, Azuga, Predeal, Râsnov si Poiana Brasov. Evenimentul este sustinut de Autoritatea Nationalã pentru Turism, ANAT, autoritãti locale si antreprenori din domeniul turismului din cele șase statiuni. ”Criteriul primei zãpezi” își propune sã promoveze turismului activ. Și-au anunțat deja participarea touroperatori si jurnalisti din tarã, din Franta, Germania, Rusia, Ucraina, Moldova etc.\r\n\r\nProgramul cuprinde: Bursa de turism, gãzduitã de Casino-ul din Sinaia (26 noiembrie); Sesiunea de conferinte pe teme de turism activ care se va desfãsura în paralel cu Bursa; un Infotrip de 5 zile, în care va atrage spre infrastructura de schi si turism activ și centrele de agrement peste 100 de specialisti; Gala turismului prahovean si a celui brașovean, seri festive în care vor fi premiati operatori performanți. ”Cu aceeași ocazie vom lansa si vedeta sezonului: produsul turistic „Learn to ski in Romania”.

Acesta a fost mesajul global transmis cu ocazia Zilei Mondiale a Turismului de către Organizația Mondială a Turismului (OMT) către toate țările membre dar și către consumatorii de călătorii din întreaga lume. Pe 27 septembrie Autoritatea Naţională pentru Turism (ANT), a organizat la Biblioteca Naţională, evenimentul tematic \"Turismul şi Apa – Protejarea viitorului nostru comun\". Aceasta a reliefat responsabilitatea pe care o are turistul în conservarea resurselor vitale de apă ale planetei şi necesităţile asumării unui angajament în acest sens. Maria Grapini, ministru delegat al turismului a arătat că Adunarea Generală a ONU, a avut inițiativa de a declara anul 2013 drept Anul Internaţional al Naţiunilor Unite dedicat cooperării în domeniul apei.\r\n”Astfel avem posibilitatea de a evidenţia în continuare responsabilitatea comună a sectorului turistic privind obiectivele generale de sustenabilitate”. La rândul său Răzvan Filipescu, președintele ANT a subliniat că relația dintre turism și apă este complexă fiind totodată una dintre cele mai incitante zone de cercetare și acțiune pentru industria de vise. ”La această remarcabilă resursă România deține un potențial integrat - Marea Neagră, Dunărea, fluviile, râurile și lacurile interioare -, cu care contribuie la promovarea bogățiilor naturale și culturale aferente. Turismul în natură, cel activ și de aventură, turismul balnear și de întreținere sunt trei dintre cele șase produse cheie identificate de cercetarea de brand și care se află în strânsă legătură cu resursele de apă ale țării noastre”.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nIFFEST un Festival de colecție\r\n

Urban Delta este realizată de artiști, arhitecți alături de 13 designeri români contemporani care și-au expus recente colecții în vitrinele neconvenționale pe fondul unor fotografii care surprind natura și viața de zi cu zi din Delta Dunării. “Intenția noastră a fost de a amenaja o zonă care să îi inspire pe bucureșteni să se reconecteze pentru câteva clipe la natură. Am ales Delta Dunării pentru că este una dintre atracțiile pe care România merită să le promoveze pentru a se poziționa ca o destinație importantă pentru amatorii turismului lent, liniștit” - sublinia Teodor Frolu, reprezentantul Asociației amintite.\r\n\r\n

Conform evaluãrilor lui Gheorghe Fodoreanu, liderul agenției de turism Invitation Romania, evenimentul a atras peste 1500 de turiști strãini sosiți în cadrul unor programe oferite de travel agenții autohtoni, din țãri ca Franța, Marea Britanie, SUA, Canada, Italia, Belgia, Germania, Austria, Elveția, dar și din mai multe țãri asiatice. ”Din punct de vedere al rețetei financiare numai compania noastrã care a asigurat servicii pentru 940 de vizitatori, a încasat circa 470.000 de euro. Am derulat mai multe proiecte-program împreunã cu parteneri internaționali din sfera muzicalã. De un mare succes s-au bucurat Croazierele Muzicale pe Dunãrece au avut ca extensii atracții de top precum Bucureștiul, Delta Dunãrii ori Castelele Transilvaniei. Sunt convins cã prin parteneriatul dezvoltat de agențiile de turism și Artexim, condus de directorul general Mihai Constantinescu, Festivalul Internațional George Enescu a devenit unul dintre cei mai vizibili vectori de promovare a României. Un vector elegant și frumos care atrage turiști și consumatori de calitate superioarã” - a mai adãugat Fodoreanu.\nION BADEA\n\n

\n\nÎN MIJLOCUL BUCUREȘTIULUI S-A DESCHIS... URBAN DELTA\n\nChiar dacă nu credeți vă puteți întâlni cu ea la Magazinul Eva – Design Românesc din centrul Capitalei. De curând aici a fost inaugurată instalația artistică Urban Delta. E vorba de un proiect plasat în cadrul Bucureștiului Creativ, prin care Asociația Ivan Patzaichin - Mila 23 și DC Communication au celebrat spiritul creativ al orașului în perioada Festivalului Internațional George Enescu. Urban Delta este realizată de artiști, arhitecți alături de 13 designeri români contemporani care și-au expus recente colecții în vitrinele neconvenționale pe fondul unor fotografii care surprind natura și viața de zi cu zi din Delta Dunării. “Intenția noastră a fost de a amenaja o zonă care să îi inspire pe bucureșteni să se reconecteze pentru câteva clipe la natură. Am ales Delta Dunării pentru că este una dintre atracțiile pe care România merită să le promoveze pentru a se poziționa ca o destinație importantă pentru amatorii turismului lent, liniștit” - sublinia Teodor Frolu, reprezentantul Asociației amintite.\n\n

\n\nCENTRU DE AGREMENT LA POIANA BRAȘOV\n\nVa apărea cu siguranță. Un proiect care prevede amenajarea unui Centru de agrement în Poiana Brașov a primit finanțare europeană. El are la bază un studiu de impact care arată că după încheierea acestuia, în decembrie 2014, numărul turiștilor ar putea crește cu circa 20%. Valoarea investiției se ridică la 10 milioane de euro. Centrul va fi amplasat la poalele pârtiei de schi Bradu, în spatele complexului Capra Neagră. În interiorul său vor fi amenajate: un club de bowling cu o capacitate de 180 de persoane, cu 8 piste profesionale; o zonă cu mese de biliard; o sală de cățărare de 250 metri pătrați, cu trei tipuri de dificultate, una de minigolf cu 9 module, cu o capacitate de 50 de persoane etc. Specialiștii estimează că în primul an de funcționare, Centrul de agrement va fi vizitat de peste 120.000 de turiști locali, naționali și internaționali.','FODOREANU: ”Festivalul Enescu, un mare succes și pentru incoming!”, EVENIMENTE nr.115','','inherit','open','open','','2517-revision','','','2013-12-09 05:37:23','2013-12-09 03:37:23','',2517,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2013/12/09/2517-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2608,1,'2014-01-21 01:50:53','2014-01-20 23:50:53',' ','','','publish','open','closed','','2608','','','2017-04-02 22:25:07','2017-04-02 20:25:07','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2608',31,'nav_menu_item','',0),(2529,1,'2013-12-09 05:39:50','2013-12-09 03:39:50',' ','','','publish','open','closed','','2529','','','2017-04-02 22:25:07','2017-04-02 20:25:07','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2529',32,'nav_menu_item','',0),(2531,1,'2013-12-09 05:43:27','2013-12-09 03:43:27','Cine n-a fost la Brașov (între 6 și 15 septembrie), a avut ocazia să trăiască reeditarea, evenimentul făcut în premieră și la București (între 3 și 6 octombrie).

După 13 ani de funcționare un hotel emblemă din București investește într-o nouă imagine de arhitectură interioară. La Cluj apare primul hotel Hampton by Hilton. În același timp Sibiul ajunge să se mândrească cu cel mai elegant Golden Tulip din România, onorat recent cu o distincție internațională.\r\n\r\nNOI TENDINȚE\r\nJ.W. Marriott Grand Hotel a lansat colecția de toamnă\r\n
![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Marriott-026.jpg\" "\\"Marriott")
\r\nPrin finalizarea procesului de renovare a lobby-ului și a noului Pavilion Lounge complexul hotelier J.W. Marriott a marcat lansarea unei noi ”colecții” de design interior ce conține modele elegante cu amprentă iconică. Modernizate pentru un plus de confort, noul lobby își întâmpină oaspeții cu un decor modern care deschide întreaga zonă a parterului, astfel încât oaspeții să se poată bucura de grandoarea și atmosfera prietenoasă a noului spațiu. Un element cheie este reprezentat de peretele iluminat din spatele recepției insulare, unde ți se oferă servicii personalizate. Construită din lemn masiv, onix și piele, noua recepție și mocheta în culori ambientale, fac cu ușurință tranziția de la modelul clasic deja existent către unul modern, mult mai primitor.\r\nPrincipala atracție este reprezentată de noul Pavilion Lounge. Proiectat să găzduiască întâlniri sociale și de afaceri, acest nou bar completează oferta celorlalte restaurante ale hotelului. Barul e construit din marmură de Calcutta, așezat cu măiestrie în fața unui perete de prezentare a băuturilor, din lemn de culoare închisă, bronz și lumini calde. Aici a fost prevăzut și un loc special pentru fumat, separat printr-un perete de sticlă, ce permite celor două spații să fie integrate în conceptul unitar. Înconjurați de farmecul clasic din exterior, oaspeții pot alege dintr-un meniu modern, ce cuprinde gustări precum trufe cu foie gras, crochete de chorizo, dar și dintr-o gamă selectă de băuturi. Investiția totală s-a ridicat la circa 1,2 milioane de euro.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Marriott-Director-Igale-Porecki.jpg\" "\\"Marriott")
\r\nDupă cum a declarat Igael Porecki, directorul general al J.W. Marriott Grand Hotel, ”deși camerele arată încă bine, după 13 ani de la inaugurarea hotelului se simte nevoia unei îmbunătățiri. Următoarea etapă o reprezintă renovarea până la finalului anului 2015 a celor 401 camere, 12 săli de evenimente, precum și a coridoarelor și Executive lounge-ul. Investiția va ajunge la aproximativ 4 milioane de euro. Vom avea inițial camere de probă, urmând ca în noiembrie-decembrie 2014, să începem renovarea tuturor camerelor din hotel. Procesul se va realiza etapizat, pe etaje.”\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Marriot-3021.jpg\" "\\"Marriot")
\r\n\r\nINTRARE ÎN PIAȚĂ\r\nHampton a deschis stagiunea la Cluj\r\nHampton by Hilton din Cluj Napoca a intrat în circuitul turistic. Acesta este primul hotel din acest brand care se poziționează pe segmentul ”value” (buget) al industriei turistice românești. El oferă 109 camere, dispuse pe 7 etaje, o sală de conferințe cu echipamente moderne, cu o capacitate totală de circa 35 de persoane și se adresează atât călătorilor tip business cât și celor leisure. Lucrările de amenajare au fost demarate în iulie 2011, clădirea având, inițial, destinație de birouri.

După 13 ani de funcționare un hotel emblemă din București investește într-o nouă imagine de arhitectură interioară. La Cluj apare primul hotel Hampton by Hilton. În același timp Sibiul ajunge să se mândrească cu cel mai elegant Golden Tulip din România, onorat recent cu o distincție internațională.\n\nNOI TENDINȚE\nJ.W. Marriott Grand Hotel a lansat colecția de toamnă\n\nPrin finalizarea procesului de renovare a lobby-ului și a noului Pavilion Lounge complexul hotelier J.W. Marriott a marcat lansarea unei noi ”colecții” de design interior ce conține modele elegante cu amprentă iconică. Modernizate pentru un plus de confort, noul lobby își întâmpină oaspeții cu un decor modern care deschide întreaga zonă a parterului, astfel încât oaspeții să se poată bucura de grandoarea și atmosfera prietenoasă a noului spațiu. Un element cheie este reprezentat de peretele iluminat din spatele recepției insulare, unde ți se oferă servicii personalizate. Construită din lemn masiv, onix și piele, noua recepție și mocheta în culori ambientale, fac cu ușurință tranziția de la modelul clasic deja existent către unul modern, mult mai primitor.\nPrincipala atracție este reprezentată de noul Pavilion Lounge. Proiectat să găzduiască întâlniri sociale și de afaceri, acest nou bar completează oferta celorlalte restaurante ale hotelului. Barul e construit din marmură de Calcutta, așezat cu măiestrie în fața unui perete de prezentare a băuturilor, din lemn de culoare închisă, bronz și lumini calde. Aici a fost prevăzut și un loc special pentru fumat, separat printr-un perete de sticlă, ce permite celor două spații să fie integrate în conceptul unitar. Înconjurați de farmecul clasic din exterior, oaspeții pot alege dintr-un meniu modern, ce cuprinde gustări precum trufe cu foie gras, crochete de chorizo, dar și dintr-o gamă selectă de băuturi. Investiția totală s-a ridicat la circa 1,2 milioane de euro.\n\nDupă cum a declarat Igael Porecki, directorul general al J.W. Marriott Grand Hotel, ”deși camerele arată încă bine, după 13 ani de la inaugurarea hotelului se simte nevoia unei îmbunătățiri. Următoarea etapă o reprezintă renovarea până la finalului anului 2015 a celor 401 camere, 12 săli de evenimente, precum și a coridoarelor și Executive lounge-ul. Investiția va ajunge la aproximativ 4 milioane de euro. Vom avea inițial camere de probă, urmând ca în noiembrie-decembrie 2014, să începem renovarea tuturor camerelor din hotel. Procesul se va realiza etapizat, pe etaje.”\n\n\nINTRARE ÎN PIAȚĂ\nHampton a deschis stagiunea la Cluj\nHampton by Hilton din Cluj Napoca a intrat în circuitul turistic. Acesta este primul hotel din acest brand care se poziționează pe segmentul ”value” (buget) al industriei turistice românești. El oferă 109 camere, dispuse pe 7 etaje, o sală de conferințe cu echipamente moderne, cu o capacitate totală de circa 35 de persoane și se adresează atât călătorilor tip business cât și celor leisure. Lucrările de amenajare au fost demarate în iulie 2011, clădirea având, inițial, destinație de birouri. Hotelul, care are 21 de angajați, se află în imediata apropiere a unor centre comerciale și industriale și la doar 8 kilometri distanță față de Aeroportul Internațional Cluj-Napoca. Andreea Balaj, directorul general al Hampton by Hilton Cluj are convingerea că ”deși este deschis relativ recent hotelul se va dovedi un succes pe piața locală, luând în considerare, în special beneficiile asociate cu operarea de către Hilton Worldwide, prin intermediul canalelor sale de vânzări și a programului de loialitate Hilton Hhonors”.

\r\nThe Thomas Cook Neckermann concern intends to promote Bucharest as city break destination during the summer. Besides catalogues, Neckermann intends to promote the Capital on outdoor and online supports in all countries where it has branches, among which Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, France, Great Britain, Austria, Switzerland, Poland, Czech and Hungary. For this promotion, a collaboration with the Romanian state would be appreciated provided that it may co-finance the project from European funds.\r\n\r\nAccording to Karpaten Tourism, the representative in Romania of the international concern, Bucharest is frequently visited mainly by business tourists. They do not come during summer, and the hotels remain almost unoccupied although the rates decrease during such period by 25-30%. Gheorghe Mărginean, president of Karpaten Tourism declared that the tourists coming in city breaks have ages up to 50 years and intend to spend more money in towns than tourists in circuits. In 2012, Neckermann carried out a pilot project, bringing in Bucharest for city break over 600 visitors. Marginean estimates that, with the beginning of promotion, the company will bring during a first year few thousands tourists in Capital, their number following to increase in the next years.

\r\nPursuant to the acquisition made by the Arabians from Etihad of 49% of the national company of Serbia - JAT Aiways – the officials announced that it will operate under a new name - Air Serbia. On December 9th it will launch in Bucharest new flights, including on the route Belgrade-Bucharest. Previously, JAT Airways had a code-sharing with Tarom, the flights being operated with an ATR aircraft held by Tarom. Currently, the Serbians are coming on Romanian market with their own plane. Therefore, the passengers from Romania will have access to the other code-sharing destinations of Air Serbia and Etihad, such as Seychelles Islands, Abu Dhabi, Australia etc.\r\n\r\neasyJet has returned after 3 years\r\nThe British low-cost operator easyJet has returned on Romanian market after three years of absence. Its leaders estimate a traffic of passengers of 65.000 of individuals annually, twice lower than in 2008, the first year of complete operation in Romania. The return of the company, in October, was marked by the beginning of flights on the route London-Bucharest. The flights are scheduled on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, Sundays in the winter season -, respectively on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday in the summer season. easyJet has entered the Romanian market 5 years ago but waived the flights from Bucharest in 2011.

\r\nThe biggest bread of potatoes from Romania entered the Guinness Book, with a unique performance. Weighing 96.6 kilos, it was prepared using 57 kilos of flour, 34 litres of water, 10 kilos of potatoes, 1 kilo of grout, 1 kilo of salt. The process of baking lasted 6 hours and it was performed at the beginning of November, at Romexpo during Indagra Food, the international fair for food industry. The performance belongs to the bakers managed by Laszlo Dioszegi. It was noticed by World Record Academy, who homologated the record on November 7th including it in the category “Rustic bread”. The section was created to help the small manufacturers in acknowledging their works. According to Dioszegi ”The team of bakers who cooked this bread won’t stop here. We intend that on the edition next year to bake a bread of... 200 kilos.” To see online the homologation of record, visit the link:','Is Neckermann staking on Bucharest?, ENGLISH VERSION NO 116','','publish','open','open','','is-neckermann-staking-on-bucharest-english-version-no-116','','','2014-01-21 01:49:51','2014-01-20 23:49:51','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2603',0,'post','',0),(2567,1,'2013-12-09 05:56:10','2013-12-09 03:56:10','STUTTGART - Provocări pe patru roți\r\n\r\nDacă vreți să încercați o experiență unică nu ratați Muzeul Porsche.

Câștigător a fost proiectul futurist al vienezului Delugan Meissl. Construcţia a durat un an, astfel că în decembrie 2008 a intrat în circuitul turistic. Meissl a dorit ca noul muzeu să ofere \"o experienţă unică, un spaţiu care reflectă o atitudine de încredere precum şi supremul standard al companiei prin arhitectură, precum şi prin caracteristice dinamice ale mărcii Porsche.\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\nCunoaşterea, credibilitatea, determinarea fac parte din filosofia muzeului, ca şi entuziasmul, puterea şi independenţa.

Am căutat să grupez într-un mod armonios istoria, cultura și performanțele tehnice al cunoscutului producătorul de automobile.\"\r\n\r\nPeste 200.000 de vizitatori calcă anual pragul acestei expoziţii tehnice ce beneficiază de o suprafaţă expozițională de 5.600 metri pătraţi. Pe cele două nivele, legate de o scară în formă de spirală, sunt expuse peste 80 de maşini - de la primul model al anului 1900 până la Porsche 911. Esenţa colecției inedite este reprezentată de cuvintele... ”Iute, Uşor, Deştept, Puternic, Intens şi Consistent”. Cuvintele definesc caracteristicile fiecărui tip de automobil. Uşor înseamnă... Porsche 356 America Roadster, Deştept este... Porsche 356 Carrera, Iute... se arată Porshe 911 Carrera Coupe, Puternic... Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe, Intens... Porsche 959 Coupe şi Consistent, Porsche 911 şi... urmașii săi.\r\nVizitatorul este surprins plăcut încă de la intrare de prezenţa legendarului Porsche Type 64 care a fost construit în 1939, considerat a fi străbunicul... tutoror modelelor pe care le-a fabricat ulterior gigantul Porsche. Amintește, într-o anumită măsură, de automobilul românului Aurel Perșu, creatorul unui prototip dinamic inspirat de picătura de apă. El poate fi văzut la Muzeul național al tehnicii ”Dimitrie Leonida” din București. Merită văzute amândouă.\r\n\r\nConceptul expoziţional al Muzeului Porsche aparține specialiştilor de la Stuttgart HG Merz, și a fost dezvoltat în cooperare cu profesorul Gottfried Korff, de la Universitatea din Tubingen. Prin acesta s-a urmărit ”prezentarea celor mai importante aspecte ale companiei şi, în acelaşi timp, documentarea îndelungatei istorii a fabricii Porsche şi a produselor sale”. Încă de la intrare veți observa formele avangardiste ale clădirii. Arhitectura exterioară se sprijină pe... pereţi de sticlă şi metal polizat. A fost creat un spaţiu culisant de peste 10 metri înălţime. Aria expoziţională este concepută dintr-o structură îndrăzneaţă de oţel care se sprijină pe piloni de beton, acoperind un spaţiu de peste 60 de metri înăţime. Toate ne-au creat senzaţia că ne aflăm într-o bază de lansare în spaţiul cosmic. Deşi găzduieşte o colecție senzaţională, muzeul este mai mult decât atât. La atmosfera primitoare contribuie spaţiile de baruri, restaurante, magazinele în care ai privilegiul să procuri cărţi despre istoria automobilului german. O parte din săli, căci avem în faţă un centru multifuncţional, stau la dispoziţie organizaţiilor şi firmelor comerciale, care organizează numeroase manifestările tehnice și culturale. Pe o terasă generoasă au loc frecvent concerte și proiecții de filme artistice. Imaginea e completată de parcarea pe două nivele cu o capacitate de 260 de maşini.\r\n\r\nManagerii Muzeului Porsche și-au dorit și au reușit să stabilească o relație interactivă cu vizitatorii. Maşinile nu sunt doar exponate. În orice moment ar fi apte să participe la curse automobilistice pe orice circuit de pe mapamond. În cadrul muzeului alături de piese clasice, olt-time, se mai află de asemenea 200 de alte exponate. Punctul de referinţă îl reprezintă secţiunea My Porsche, care prezintă pe cîte un suport rotativ, maşini personalizate, modele unicat, printre care un... tractor Diesel Porsche construit în 1960, precum şi un Porsche Carrera 911, pictat de către faimosul artist Biggibilla. Pe lângă numeroasele modele de maşini şi colecţia de jucării dedicate acestei mărci, vizitatorii rămân fascinaţi de un zgomot de fond permanent, o cortină sonoră, care reproduce sunetul motorului Porsche.\r\n\r\nAşa se creează o relaţie emoţională cu toţi cei care îndrăgesc această marcă. O altă experiență vă este oferită la etaj. Acolo există un spaţiu personalizat, un cilindru sonor, în care odată intrat vizitatorul are ocazia să recunoască, depinde de pregătirea lui, tipurile de motoare şi anii în care au echipat serii de automobile. O secțiune distinctă o ocupă vitrine cu cupe şi trofee, obținute de tipuri de automobile, seria sport, create special pentru raliuri.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Dacă vreți să încercați o experiență unică nu ratați Muzeul Porsche, MAPAMOND nr.115','','publish','open','open','','daca-vreti-sa-incercati-o-experienta-unica-nu-ratati-muzeul-porsche-mapamond-nr-115','','','2013-12-09 05:56:10','2013-12-09 03:56:10','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2567',0,'post','',0),(2568,1,'2013-12-09 05:55:47','2013-12-09 03:55:47','','Porsche 6','','inherit','open','open','','porsche-6','','','2013-12-09 05:55:47','2013-12-09 03:55:47','',2567,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Porsche-6.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2569,1,'2013-12-09 05:55:48','2013-12-09 03:55:48','','Porsche 9','','inherit','open','open','','porsche-9','','','2013-12-09 05:55:48','2013-12-09 03:55:48','',2567,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Porsche-9.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2570,1,'2013-12-09 05:55:51','2013-12-09 03:55:51','','Porsche 45','','inherit','open','open','','porsche-45','','','2013-12-09 05:55:51','2013-12-09 03:55:51','',2567,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Porsche-45.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2571,1,'2013-12-09 05:55:52','2013-12-09 03:55:52','','Porsche 139','','inherit','open','open','','porsche-139','','','2013-12-09 05:55:52','2013-12-09 03:55:52','',2567,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Porsche-139.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2572,1,'2013-12-09 05:55:53','2013-12-09 03:55:53','','Porsche 141','','inherit','open','open','','porsche-141','','','2013-12-09 05:55:53','2013-12-09 03:55:53','',2567,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Porsche-141.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2573,1,'2013-12-09 05:55:54','2013-12-09 03:55:54','','Porsche 143','','inherit','open','open','','porsche-143','','','2013-12-09 05:55:54','2013-12-09 03:55:54','',2567,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Porsche-143.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2574,1,'2013-12-09 05:55:54','2013-12-09 03:55:54','Projekt: Porsche Museum\r\nArchitekt: Delugan+Meissel\r\nOrt: Stuttgart','RH1657-162','','inherit','open','open','','rh1657-162','','','2013-12-09 05:55:54','2013-12-09 03:55:54','',2567,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Porsche5.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2575,1,'2013-12-09 05:55:56','2013-12-09 03:55:56','','Porsche37','','inherit','open','open','','porsche37','','','2013-12-09 05:55:56','2013-12-09 03:55:56','',2567,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Porsche37.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2576,1,'2013-12-09 05:54:45','2013-12-09 03:54:45','STUTTGART - Provocări pe patru roți\n\nDacă vreți să încercați o experiență unică nu ratați Muzeul Porsche.

Esenţa colecției inedite este reprezentată de cuvintele... ”Iute, Uşor, Deştept, Puternic, Intens şi Consistent”. Cuvintele definesc caracteristicile fiecărui tip de automobil. Uşor înseamnă... Porsche 356 America Roadster, Deştept este... Porsche 356 Carrera, Iute... se arată Porshe 911 Carrera Coupe, Puternic... Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe, Intens... Porsche 959 Coupe şi Consistent, Porsche 911 şi... urmașii săi.\nVizitatorul este surprins plăcut încă de la intrare de prezenţa legendarului Porsche Type 64 care a fost construit în 1939, considerat a fi străbunicul... tutoror modelelor pe care le-a fabricat ulterior gigantul Porsche. Amintește, într-o anumită măsură, de automobilul românului Aurel Perșu, creatorul unui prototip dinamic inspirat de picătura de apă. El poate fi văzut la Muzeul național al tehnicii ”Dimitrie Leonida” din București. Merită văzute amândouă.\n\nConceptul expoziţional al Muzeului Porsche aparține specialiştilor de la Stuttgart HG Merz, și a fost dezvoltat în cooperare cu profesorul Gottfried Korff, de la Universitatea din Tubingen. Prin acesta s-a urmărit ”prezentarea celor mai importante aspecte ale companiei şi, în acelaşi timp, documentarea îndelungatei istorii a fabricii Porsche şi a produselor sale”. Încă de la intrare veți observa formele avangardiste ale clădirii. Arhitectura exterioară se sprijină pe... pereţi de sticlă şi metal polizat. A fost creat un spaţiu culisant de peste 10 metri înălţime. Aria expoziţională este concepută dintr-o structură îndrăzneaţă de oţel care se sprijină pe piloni de beton, acoperind un spaţiu de peste 60 de metri înăţime. Toate ne-au creat senzaţia că ne aflăm într-o bază de lansare în spaţiul cosmic. Deşi găzduieşte o colecție senzaţională, muzeul este mai mult decât atât. La atmosfera primitoare contribuie spaţiile de baruri, restaurante, magazinele în care ai privilegiul să procuri cărţi despre istoria automobilului german. O parte din săli, căci avem în faţă un centru multifuncţional, stau la dispoziţie organizaţiilor şi firmelor comerciale, care organizează numeroase manifestările tehnice și culturale. Pe o terasă generoasă au loc frecvent concerte și proiecții de filme artistice. Imaginea e completată de parcarea pe două nivele cu o capacitate de 260 de maşini.\n\nManagerii Muzeului Porsche și-au dorit și au reușit să stabilească o relație interactivă cu vizitatorii. Maşinile nu sunt doar exponate. În orice moment ar fi apte să participe la curse automobilistice pe orice circuit de pe mapamond. În cadrul muzeului alături de piese clasice, olt-time, se mai află de asemenea 200 de alte exponate. Punctul de referinţă îl reprezintă secţiunea My Porsche, care prezintă pe cîte un suport rotativ, maşini personalizate, modele unicat, printre care un... tractor Diesel Porsche construit în 1960, precum şi un Porsche Carrera 911, pictat de către faimosul artist Biggibilla. Pe lângă numeroasele modele de maşini şi colecţia de jucării dedicate acestei mărci, vizitatorii rămân fascinaţi de un zgomot de fond permanent, o cortină sonoră, care reproduce sunetul motorului Porsche.\n\nAşa se creează o relaţie emoţională cu toţi cei care îndrăgesc această marcă. O altă experiență vă este oferită la etaj. Acolo există un spaţiu personalizat, un cilindru sonor, în care odată intrat vizitatorul are ocazia să recunoască, depinde de pregătirea lui, tipurile de motoare şi anii în care au echipat serii de automobile. O secțiune distinctă o ocupă vitrine cu cupe şi trofee, obținute de tipuri de automobile, seria sport, create special pentru raliuri.\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Dacă vreți să încercați o experiență unică nu ratați Muzeul Porsche, MAPAMOND nr.115','','inherit','open','open','','2567-revision','','','2013-12-09 05:54:45','2013-12-09 03:54:45','',2567,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2013/12/09/2567-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2578,1,'2013-12-09 06:01:04','2013-12-09 04:01:04','ROMÂNIA - Ce-ți pune toamna în farfurie !\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nDupă ce am străbătut Slovacia, Ungaria și Ucraina echipa de jurnaliști de turism, gastronomie și vinuri, dublată de travel agenți s-a îndreptat spre România unde a trăit noi experiențe tematice.

Detalii despre tradiția vinului se regăsesc cam de 1000 de ani, afirmă organizatorii. Dar cultura vinului a început să se dezvolte în secolul al XVIII-lea o dată cu sosirea primilor șvabi, aduși aici după 1712, de către contele Karolyi. Tradiția a crescut și s-a diversificat. Specificul, zonei, ce însumează circa 1200 de acri de teren cultivat cu viță de vie, este exprimat prin mici producători. Numai în Beltiug există la 690 de case circa 390 de crame. O parte din vinurile de aici ne-au fost prezentate în compania unor produse specifice, printre care cârnatul șvăbesc, lebewurst, cotlete de porc la grătar cu varză acră, găluști și plăcinte șvăbești, preparate după rețete transmise de la o generație la alta. Personal m-a încîntat și ceremonia de sfințire a vinului, spectacolele artistice cu dansuri germane, maghiare, țigănești ori românești, fanfara din Beltiug și rapsozii populari. Aflat la prima ediție Festivalul are toate șansele să crească printr-o mai bună mediatizare și prezentare. Are multe de oferit. Ne-am convins.\r\n\r\nZETEA: ”Mai mult decât o poveste de succes!”\r\n\r\nÎn mod sigur ați auzit de Zetea. Este marca cea mai cunoscută, de băutură naturală distilată, din Transilvania și din România. Părerea mea. Înainte de a intra în Ateliere familiei Zetea cităm o poveste promoțională care exprimă esența locului: ”Aici în inima Transilvaniei, în Medieșu Aurit se află grădina cu prunii cei bătrâni, ale căror fructe albastre se brumăresc din culoarea cerului. Aici, sute de ani, familia gospodarului Zetea, fabrica Țuica, Horincă de Ardeal, făcând cinste tradiției, înțelepciunii și științei de a stoarce lacrimile prunului, aurul de chihlimbar al licorii fermecate.” Magic nu? Vizitarea Atelierelor Zetea a urmat tiparele unui ritual. Cât s-au pus la cale platourile cu aperitive și tocănița de cartofi cu carne, absolut necesare la... testările ce au urmat, am urmărit demonstrațiile lui Silviu Zetea, actualul proprietar, care se află și la primul mandat de primar al așezării. Totul a început pe la 1900. De-a lungul mai multor generații familia Zetea a început să fie foarte apreciată pentru băuturile naturale din fructe, obținute în cazane tradiționale cu foc direct. Procedeele au fost permanent îmbunătățite, dar caracterul tradițional al rețetelor s-a păstrat. După 1989 Silviu Zetea a reorganizat activitatea în cadrul firmei cu dorința de a trasmite generațiilor viitoare secretele metodei ”Zetea”. Pe același filon tată-fiu. Pe un perete al distileriei se află imaginea lui Valer Zetea (1923-1975), care pare că ne transmitea că un pahar de horincă bună, face viața mai frumoasă. Cât de frumoasă? Să vedem. În 2001, pentru prima dată țuica ”Zetea de Transilvania” era premiată cu medalia de argint la Concursul Mondial de la Bruxelles. Au urmat și alte distincții. Silviu Zetea ne spune că este preocupat în continuare de calitate și nu de cantitate și că de aceea produsele Zetea au fost poziționate în ultimii ani pe segmentul de lux și exclusivist. Ele sunt distribuite la foarte multe protocoale, întîlniri diplomatice, în magazinele din aeroporturi, ajungând să fie solicitate în multe colțuri ale lumii. Una dintre vedete - Crai Nou - este o băutură obținută din fructe de pădure, recomandată pentru ocazii speciale. La acest nivel ambalajele sunt personalizate în funcție de eveniment și solicitările clienților. După cum ne spunea la degustarea care a urmat, Zetea se gândește să se implice și în dezvoltarea unui proiect turistic cu finanțare europeană. Încă nu s-a hotărît dar îi este foarte clar că pentru circuitele turistice are nevoie de o bază de cazare. Că va fi sat de vacanță, un complex rural sau un camping pentru rulote - asta rămâne de stabilit. E convins că turismul poate crea o nouă plus valoare băuturilor ce se fabrică aici de mai bine de o sută de ani.\r\n\r\nMARAMUREȘ: De la Muzeu la Rodica ”prăjiturica”\r\n\r\nSunt la fel de cunoscute în Maramureș. Și Muzeul în aer liber din Negrești Oaș și Rodica Țiplea din Ocna Șugatag. În primul am vizitat mai multe instalații tradiționale. Cum căutările noastre țineau de gastronomie și băuturi ne-am oprit la muzeu cu un scop anume. Să vedem cum arată, Distileria de țuică. Instalația este formată din toate elementele reprezentative pentru producția de țuică în zona Maramureșului. Directorul muzeului ne-a atras atenția că nu avem în față doar o piesă de muzeu. Ci una care poate oricând fi pusă la produs. Interesantă idee.\r\nDe acolo ne-am îndreptat spre Rodica Țiplea, din Ocna Șugatag, botezată de o publicație ... Rodica prăjiturica. Nu întâmplător căci în curtea sa e bătaie mare pe prăjituri. De altfel ne-am și inițiat într-un curs de pregătire a prăjiturilor. Femeia e proprietăreasă (are o pensiune), cofetar, om de afaceri. Încearcă în fiecare din aceste ipostaze să dezmorțească comunitatea locală. Ne arată atelierul de patiserie de unde ies lunar mii de plăcinte crețe ori nu, prăjituri cu măr sau brânză, cozonaci cu nucă și câte și mai câte. Are comenzi cu luni înainte - ne spune - pentru nunți de sute de persoane. E mereu prezentă, chiar dacă e obositor, cu produsele și poveștile lor în magazine din zonă dar și din țară. Are mai multe femei la lucru dar e necăjită că o parte din tradițiile preparării prăjiturilor, gemurilor, siropurilor încep să se piardă. Luptă pentru a le păstra. Nu întâmplător o parte dintre creațiile sale au fost recunoscute de către programele de certificare ale UE, drept produse tradiționale pentru județul Maramureș.\r\n\r\nDaniela Culic, directorul executiv al Camerei de Comerț și Industrie Satu Mare, ne-a precizat pe parcursul documentării noastre că ”Proiectul la care ați fost prezent este doar unul în care suntem implicați. Deținem un potențial turistic valorificat foarte puțin. Încercăm să creem mai multe evenimente pentru ca oamenii implicați în turism să conștientizeze mai bine atracțiile unice, inclusiv pe cele legate de gastronomie și vinuri.

Un indicator excelent îl reprezintă cresterea numărului de copii pe turismul intern (+92% în comparație cu sezonul 2012). Și vanzările în zona montană au cunoscut acelasi procent de crestere.\nC. MARIAN\n\n\n\nSIBIU: Peste 70 de monumente au QR cod\n
\n\nPovestea a 73 de monumente istorice din Sibiu este spusă acum într-un mod unic, prin utilizarea codurilor QR (Quick Response). Toate aceste clădiri fac parte dintr-un circuit virtual foarte usor de urmat, la îndemana oricărui turist. Prin scanarea codului de bare de pe plăcuțele informative, oricine poate afla date istorice, specificații arhitecturale, personalități care au locuit în clădirile istorice si alte informații relevante.\n\nAcțiunea face parte din proiectul \"Promovarea patrimoniului cultural prin QR cod\" si pune la punct un sistem de ghidaj turistic si furnizarea de informații online pentru obiectivele culturale si turistice ale orasului Sibiu, reprezentand astfel un produs care lipsea complet de pe piața turistică. Sistemul este benefic atat pentru turisti, cat si pentru sibieni, întrucat permite si semnalizarea punctelor de interes din apropierea monumentelor, spații de cazare, restaurante, baruri si modalități de petrecere a timpului liber. În acest moment, ghidul turistic online conține 73 de monumente, cinci trasee tematice si unul general si peste 400 de puncte de interes turistic, totul în patru limbi: romană, germană, engleză si franceză.\n\nProiectul \"Promovarea patrimoniului cultural prin QR cod\" este finanțat prin Administrația Fondului Cultural Național (AFCN) si implementat de Neoma Solutions - ne-a precizat Iulia Macrea, reprezentant cu comunicarea al programului.\n\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU','CRISTIAN PANDEL: ”Datorită cererii am lansat foarte devreme produsele First Minute 2014!”, TRAVEL nr.115','','inherit','open','open','','2594-revision','','','2013-12-09 06:12:59','2013-12-09 04:12:59','',2594,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2013/12/09/2594-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2600,1,'2013-12-09 05:24:08','2013-12-09 03:24:08','Primul tablou. Românii nu mai sunt marcați, demult, de complexul Statelor Unite. I-am așteptat prea mult la porțile istoriei iar când au venit ni s-a părut un lucru aproape normal. Românii care pleacă să muncească în SUA nu sunt căpșunari în industria turistică. Constant, în ultimul deceniu și jumătate, aproape la fiecare întâlnire pe care o avem cu manageri de hoteluri, de nave de croaziere, de parcuri de distracții etc, observăm aprecierea valorii românilor. Unii ocupă azi poziții de top în companii cu zeci de mii de angajați. Deseori, suntem întrebați dacă nu cunoaștem tineri care să vină să lucreze, măcar 6 luni pe ani, în complexele de vacanță. Răspundem că avem mulți studenți care ar dori să trăiască experiența americană. Dar sistemul de vise este descurajant și, de ce să nu o spunem, umilitor pentru locuitorii unei țări civilizate.\r\n\r\nAl doilea tablou. Au trecut mai bine de 15 ani de când aproape la fiecare conferință de presă pe care o avem la cel mai mare Târg de business-turism din lume - International Pow Wow (IPW) -, cu oficialitățile guvernului Statelor Unite întrebăm: de ce românii nu beneficiază de liberă circulație în SUA și sunt în continuare ținuți dincolo de bariera Visa Waiver. Mai ales că România a devenit membru cu drepturi depline al Uniunii Europene, iar UE este partenerul strategic al SUA. Răspunsurile oficialităților, dincolo de politețe, pot fi concentrate astfel: Bine, bine, am putea să o acordăm, dar până acum țara dumneavoastră n-a cerut acest lucru. Am dedus că nu e o prioritate pentru români. Usturătoare lecție.\r\n\r\nAl treilea tablou. De obicei editorialele noastre nu salută politicieni. Decât dacă sunt devotați turismului. Acum o facem. Este pentru prima dată când un lider al României formulează clar în SUA necesitatea ca țara noastră să primească Visa Waiwer. Premierul Victor Ponta, a subliniat în timpul convorbirii avute cu Joe Biden la Casa Albă citez: \"Este o nedreptate la adresa României şi a Poloniei, totuşi aliaţi ai Statelor Unite, cu parteneriate strategice ambele ţări şi aliaţi puternici, serioşi şi de mult timp. Sper ca în discuţiile pe care le voi avea să explic încă o dată că ceva mic pentru Statele Unite este ceva important pentru România\". Ponta s-a întâlnit și cu membrii ai Congresului american, cu Michael Turner, co-preşedintele Grupului pentru România din Congres, cu secretarul pentru comerţ, Penny Pritzker etc. Asta exprimă dorința și voința unui lobby internațional. Un maraton de imagine sau marketing politic? Important e rezultatul. Vă mai aduceți aminte de replica din filmul ”Filantropica”: ”Mâna întinsă care nu spune o poveste, nu primește nimic!”. Chiar dacă totul se negociază, măcar acum am început să le facem pe amândouă.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Mana intinsa care nu spune o poveste ..., EDITORIAL nr.115','','inherit','open','open','','2505-revision-3','','','2013-12-09 05:24:08','2013-12-09 03:24:08','',2505,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2013/12/09/2505-revision-3/',0,'revision','',0),(2606,1,'2014-01-21 01:48:12','2014-01-20 23:48:12','','Capitala Centru engl','','inherit','open','open','','capitala-centru-engl','','','2014-01-21 01:48:12','2014-01-20 23:48:12','',2603,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Capitala-Centru-engl.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2607,1,'2014-01-21 01:49:01','2014-01-20 23:49:01','Is Neckermann staking on Bucharest?\n\nThe Thomas Cook Neckermann concern intends to promote Bucharest as city break destination during the summer. Besides catalogues, Neckermann intends to promote the Capital on outdoor and online supports in all countries where it has branches, among which Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, France, Great Britain, Austria, Switzerland, Poland, Czech and Hungary. For this promotion, a collaboration with the Romanian state would be appreciated provided that it may co-finance the project from European funds.\n\nAccording to Karpaten Tourism, the representative in Romania of the international concern, Bucharest is frequently visited mainly by business tourists. They do not come during summer, and the hotels remain almost unoccupied although the rates decrease during such period by 25-30%. Gheorghe Mărginean, president of Karpaten Tourism declared that the tourists coming in city breaks have ages up to 50 years and intend to spend more money in towns than tourists in circuits. In 2012, Neckermann carried out a pilot project, bringing in Bucharest for city break over 600 visitors. Marginean estimates that, with the beginning of promotion, the company will bring during a first year few thousands tourists in Capital, their number following to increase in the next years.
\nPursuant to the acquisition made by the Arabians from Etihad of 49% of the national company of Serbia - JAT Aiways – the officials announced that it will operate under a new name - Air Serbia. On December 9th it will launch in Bucharest new flights, including on the route Belgrade-Bucharest. Previously, JAT Airways had a code-sharing with Tarom, the flights being operated with an ATR aircraft held by Tarom. Currently, the Serbians are coming on Romanian market with their own plane. Therefore, the passengers from Romania will have access to the other code-sharing destinations of Air Serbia and Etihad, such as Seychelles Islands, Abu Dhabi, Australia etc.\n\neasyJet has returned after 3 years\nThe British low-cost operator easyJet has returned on Romanian market after three years of absence. Its leaders estimate a traffic of passengers of 65.000 of individuals annually, twice lower than in 2008, the first year of complete operation in Romania. The return of the company, in October, was marked by the beginning of flights on the route London-Bucharest. The flights are scheduled on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, Sundays in the winter season -, respectively on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday in the summer season. easyJet has entered the Romanian market 5 years ago but waived the flights from Bucharest in 2011. In 2008, it operated flights from Otopeni to Italy, on Milan Malpensa Airport and to Spain, on Madrid Barajas Airport.\n\nGUINNESS BOOK: Romania baked the biggest bread\n\nThe biggest bread of potatoes from Romania entered the Guinness Book, with a unique performance. Weighing 96.6 kilos, it was prepared using 57 kilos of flour, 34 litres of water, 10 kilos of potatoes, 1 kilo of grout, 1 kilo of salt. The process of baking lasted 6 hours and it was performed at the beginning of November, at Romexpo during Indagra Food, the international fair for food industry. The performance belongs to the bakers managed by Laszlo Dioszegi. It was noticed by World Record Academy, who homologated the record on November 7th including it in the category “Rustic bread”. The section was created to help the small manufacturers in acknowledging their works. According to Dioszegi ”The team of bakers who cooked this bread won’t stop here. We intend that on the edition next year to bake a bread of... 200 kilos.” To see online the homologation of record, visit the link:','Is Neckermann staking on Bucharest?, ENGLISH VERSION NO 116','','inherit','open','open','','2603-revision','','','2014-01-21 01:49:01','2014-01-20 23:49:01','',2603,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2014/01/21/2603-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2609,1,'2014-01-21 01:56:42','2014-01-20 23:56:42','TÂRGU JIU: ”Dorim un Măr de Aur pentru Axa Brâncuși!”\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/jiu-140.jpg\" "\\"jiu")

\r\nIată câteva opinii formulate la întâlnire cu oficialitățile județului și municipiului. Jim Thompson (Fijet SUA): ”Am descoperit ceva magic. Avem în față o viziune extraordinară pe care merită să o povestiți întregii lumi. Este un spațiu al frumosului iar Ansamblul merită o distincție din partea presei internaționale de travel.” Nikolai Meinert (Fijet Finlanda):”Aveți un popor deosebit de ospitalier. Atracțiile județului dumneavoastră sunt în sine un film, o producție care ar putea concura la Cannes ori Las Vegas!”. Plamen Starev (Fijet Bulgaria - Președintele Comitetului internațional Golden Apple Award): ”Avem mai multe propuneri pentru 2014. Există o anumită percepție că România a primit destule distincții în ultimii ani.\r\n\r\nFără îndoială că o candidatură care se sprijină pe valorile unicat create de Constantin Brâncuși, este una redutabilă, iar Târgu Jiu are șanse reale de a obține, pentru România un Golden Apple. Spre deosebire de alte competiții, în aceasta nu există țări care pierd. Peste tot turismul iese câștigător, și cred că asta este menirea noastră”. Karin Mimica (Croația): ”Sunt multe lucruri de spus. A fost o documentare plină de atracții de top și o gastronomie excelentă.

\r\nPoate nu știați. În România există un instrument foarte util pentru turiștii care doresc să viziteze diferite atracții naturale ori construite. Unde mai pui că el este și gratuit. HERO.dot – Serviciul Unic Național de Audioghid Turistic prin Telefon, a fost inițiat de o echipă de tineri întreprinzători din Iași și are funcționale în momentul de față peste 3000 de obiective turistice ale căror audioghiduri sunt disponibile. Procedura e simplă. Suni la numărul de telefon fix (0332 780 780) și apoi să introduci codul obiectivului al cărui audioghid dorești să îl asculți. Nu se percepe nici o taxă, numărul fiind cu tarif normal. În următoarea jumătate de an echipa își propune să crească până la 6.000 numărul de obiective incluse în serviciul HERO.dot. De asemenea, acestui serviciu i se vor adăuga primele 1000 de obiective din țară și fișiere video, lucru care devine realitate odată cu lansarea aplicației pentru smarphone și tablete. Momentan serviciul este oferit doar în limba română, însă în scurt timp vor fi disponibile și versiunile în limba engleză, germană, franceză și italiană.\r\n\r\n“Investiția este realizată 100% din fonduri private. Valoarea ei depășește 100.000 de euro. Am încercat să obținem sprijinul reprezentanților Ministerului Turismului. Nu ne-am lovit de un refuz direct, ci mai mult de un răspuns diplomat de genul: ..interesant, păstrăm legatura…vă sunăm noi…din păcate nu avem resurse. Noi suntem optimiști în evoluția acestui serviciu. Avem propuneri de colaborare din partea mai multor întreprinzători privați. O serie de agenții de publicitate s-au oferit să îl preia în totalitate ca un canal nou de marketing în promovarea clienților. La cei peste 1,2 milioane de turiști străini ce vizitează anual România deja sustenabilitatea investiției este asigurată. Eu cred că în țara noastră sunt numeroase posibilități ce pot fi valorificate.

\r\nConcernul Thomas Cook Neckermann intenționează să promoveze Bucureștiul ca destinație de city break pe perioada verii. În afară de cataloage, Neckermann și-a propus să promoveze Capitala pe suporturi outdoor și online în toate țările în care are filiale, printre care Germania, Belgia, Olanda, Franța, Marea Britanie, Austria, Elveția, Polonia, Cehia și Ungaria. Pentru această promovare, o colaborare cu statul român ar fi apreciată în condițiile în care el ar putea cofinanța proiectul din fonduri europene.\r\n\r\nConform Karpaten Turism, reprezentantul în România al concernului internațional, Bucureștiul este frecventat preponderent de turiștii de afaceri. Ei nu vin vara, iar hotelurile rămân aproape goale deși tarifele sunt mai mici în acea perioadă cu peste 25-30%. Gheorghe Mărginean, președintele Karpaten Turism a declarat că turiștii care vin în city break-uri au vârste până în 50 de ani și sunt dispuși să cheltuiască mai mulți bani în orașe decât turiștii de circuite. În 2012, Neckermann a derulat un proiect pilot, prin care a adus în București pentru city break peste 600 de vizitatori. Marginean estimează că, odata cu începerea promovării, compania va aduce în primul an câteva mii de turiști în Capitală, urmând ca numărul acestora să crească în viitorii ani.\r\n\r\nSOCAR este sponsor în 2016\r\nSocar a devenit sponsor oficial al Campionatului European de Fotbal din 2016.

Potrivit contractului semnat cu UEFA, SOCAR va susţine sesiunile de calificări şi turneul final, precum şi calificările europene pentru Campionatul Mondial de fotbal din 2018 (Rusia). Vicepreşedintele Elshad Nasirov a declarat că “pentru SOCAR este un eveniment istoric. Este foarte important să contribuim la organizarea unui turneu de acest nivel, cum este Campionatul European din 2016. Aceasta este o oportunitate importantă pentru SOCAR să fie recunoscut ca un premium brand la nivel mondial”. La rândul lor, reprezentanţii UEFA susţin că “SOCAR a devenit sponsor al EURO-2016 si al calificărilor europene ale Campionatului Mondial din 2018 având posibilitatea unică de a-şi extinde auditoriul brandului”. “SOCAR sprijină atât fotbalul amator prin competiţii de profil, organizate de compania noastră cât şi fotbalul profesionist.

Complexul a fost dezvoltat pe o suprafață de circa 12.500 metri pătrați. El e prevăzut cu 5 piscine exterioare, piscine interioare, bazine de relaxare, hidromasaj, bazine cu apă termală, șapte tipuri de saune, iar pasionații de activități sportive au la dispoziție zone unde se poate practica tenis de masă, aerobic etc.\r\n\r\nAquaStar, care este deschis pe tot parcursul anului, are o capacitate de 2.000 de persoane pe zi în sezonul estival, și 500 de persoane pe zi în extra sezon.\r\n\r\nStrăinii au numeroase motive de a vizita Capitala\r\nSecțiunea de Travel a cunoscutului site al grupul britanic BBC a prezentat, într-un reportaj dedicat Centrul Vechi din București, atracțiile oferite de această zonă turistilor români și străini. Sub titlul ”Noul Oraș Vechi al Bucureștiului jurnalistul Mark Baker scrie despre eforturile lăudabile depuse în ultimii ani de autorități pentru remodelarea arhitecturală și comercială a zonei în scopul valorificării potențialului turistic și istoric.\r\n\r\nPrezentând atracțiile turistice din Centrul Vechi, jurnalistul britanic face descrieri favorabile ale străzii Franceze, unde se află vestigii ale Curții Vechi și ale Palatului Voievodal, folosit în trecut de domnitorii Valahiei, inclusiv de Vlad Țepeș - sursa de inspirație a scriitorului Bram Stoker atunci când a creat personajul Dracula. „Imaginea tipică era, în urmă cu mai mulți ani, aceea a unui oraș ponosit și murdar, în care nu aveai prea multe lucruri de văzut, cu excepția Casei Poporului, o construcție a cărei arhitectură supradimensionată reflectă egoul exacerbat al dictatorului Nicolae Ceauseșcu.\r\n\r\nEra un oraș în care puteai să te oprești pentru o noapte, dar asta era tot” - scria jurnalistul în introducerea articolului. În prezent, însă, turiștii au numeroase motive de a petrece mai multe zile în București și datorită noului cartier pietonal încântător, în care există suficient de multe distracții care te țin ocupat pe parcursul zilei dar și suficient de multe restaurante, baruri și cluburi pentru a te ține treaz întreaga noapte, mai arată Baker.\r\n\r\nCastelul Huniazilor e îm Top\r\nPublicația americană The Huffington Post a realizat un top al palatelor de poveste. În acesta pe primul loc se află Castelul Huniazilor din Hunedoara (România).

Natura Serialul are 7 episoade cu o durată de 52 minute fiecare.\r\n\r\nȘase episoade prezintă regiunile biogeografice: Pontica, Stepica, Alpina (2 părți), Continentala, iar ultimul episod este de sinteză. Filmările au fost realizate între 2011-2012 pe parcursul a 12 luni, în cele patru anotimpuri, pentru a putea surprinde imagini reprezentative pentru speciile și habitatele protejate. Documentarul cuprinde filmări aeriene, filmări subacvatice, prezentarea unor activități economice umane, turistice și agricole, interviuri cu experți în protecția mediului, turiști străini și români. În țara noastră sunt declarate până în prezent 530 de situri Natura 2000.\r\n\r\nCasa Argintarului va fi renovată\r\nO clădire emblematică pentru istoria orașului transilvănean ”Casa Argintarului” va deveni, după ce va fi complet refăcută, sediul Centrului German din localitate. Acest lucru va fi posibil ca urmare a derulării unui proiect finanțat prin programul REGIO. Clădirea - monument istoric de arhitectură gotică și renascentistă -, datează din secolul al XVI-lea și a aparținut unui celebru meșter bijutier. Proiectul are o valoare totală de 2.458.680,75 de lei, din care 1.802.027,53 de lei reprezintă fonduri nerambursabile.\r\n\r\nEXIMTUR s-a aliat cu Gothaer \r\nEximtur a lansat împreună cu societatea de asigurări Gothaer Asigurări Reasigurari, o poliţă de care garantează persoanelor fizice sau juridice ce achiziţionează bilete de avion, recuperarea sumelor cheltuite în acest scop în cazul falimentului companiei aeriene. Pe lângă riscul de faliment al companiei aeriene, care ar genera anularea biletului de avion, există diverse evenimente neprevăzute care pot împiedica efectuarea călătoriei cu avionul şi care sunt acoperite de noul produs lansat. Printre categoriile asigurate acestea se numără: boli, accidente, distrugerea locuinţei ca urmare a incendiilor, pierderea sau furtul documentelor de identitate etc. “Recomand tuturor celor care călătoresc să încheie poliţe de asigurare, fie că vorbim de asigurare medicală, de asigurare storno sau de asigurare a bagajelor.

Sub titlul ”Noul Oraș Vechi al Bucureștiului jurnalistul Mark Baker scrie despre eforturile lăudabile depuse în ultimii ani de autorități pentru remodelarea arhitecturală și comercială a zonei în scopul valorificării potențialului turistic și istoric.\n\nPrezentând atracțiile turistice din Centrul Vechi, jurnalistul britanic face descrieri favorabile ale străzii Franceze, unde se află vestigii ale Curții Vechi și ale Palatului Voievodal, folosit în trecut de domnitorii Valahiei, inclusiv de Vlad Țepeș - sursa de inspirație a scriitorului Bram Stoker atunci când a creat personajul Dracula. „Imaginea tipică era, în urmă cu mai mulți ani, aceea a unui oraș ponosit și murdar, în care nu aveai prea multe lucruri de văzut, cu excepția Casei Poporului, o construcție a cărei arhitectură supradimensionată reflectă egoul exacerbat al dictatorului Nicolae Ceauseșcu.\n\nEra un oraș în care puteai să te oprești pentru o noapte, dar asta era tot” - scria jurnalistul în introducerea articolului. În prezent, însă, turiștii au numeroase motive de a petrece mai multe zile în București și datorită noului cartier pietonal încântător, în care există suficient de multe distracții care te țin ocupat pe parcursul zilei dar și suficient de multe restaurante, baruri și cluburi pentru a te ține treaz întreaga noapte, mai arată Baker.\n\nCastelul Huniazilor e îm Top\nPublicația americană The Huffington Post a realizat un top al palatelor de poveste. În acesta pe primul loc se află Castelul Huniazilor din Hunedoara (România). El este urmat de castelele Neuschwanstein, Eltz și Lichtenstein din Baden-Wurttemberg (Germania); Bodiam din Sussex (Marea Britanie); Hohenschwangau (Germania), respectiv Leslie din Glasgow, Hooe Common și cel din Wales (Marea Britanie)\n\nPrimul serial NATURA 2000 din România\nNatura 2000 în România este primul serial documentar care prezintă rețeaua europeana Natura 2000 la nivel național. Serialul a fost realizat în cadrul campaniei de conștientizare InfoNatura 2000 derulată de Centrul Național pentru Dezvoltare Durabilă din București în parteneriat cu Ministerul Mediului și al Schimbărilor Climatice. Natura Serialul are 7 episoade cu o durată de 52 minute fiecare.\n\nȘase episoade prezintă regiunile biogeografice: Pontica, Stepica, Alpina (2 părți), Continentala, iar ultimul episod este de sinteză. Filmările au fost realizate între 2011-2012 pe parcursul a 12 luni, în cele patru anotimpuri, pentru a putea surprinde imagini reprezentative pentru speciile și habitatele protejate. Documentarul cuprinde filmări aeriene, filmări subacvatice, prezentarea unor activități economice umane, turistice și agricole, interviuri cu experți în protecția mediului, turiști străini și români. În țara noastră sunt declarate până în prezent 530 de situri Natura 2000.\n\nCasa Argintarului va fi renovată\nO clădire emblematică pentru istoria orașului transilvănean ”Casa Argintarului” va deveni, după ce va fi complet refăcută, sediul Centrului German din localitate. Acest lucru va fi posibil ca urmare a derulării unui proiect finanțat prin programul REGIO. Clădirea - monument istoric de arhitectură gotică și renascentistă -, datează din secolul al XVI-lea și a aparținut unui celebru meșter bijutier. Proiectul are o valoare totală de 2.458.680,75 de lei, din care 1.802.027,53 de lei reprezintă fonduri nerambursabile.\n\nEXIMTUR s-a aliat cu Gothaer \nEximtur a lansat împreună cu societatea de asigurări Gothaer Asigurări Reasigurari, o poliţă de care garantează persoanelor fizice sau juridice ce achiziţionează bilete de avion, recuperarea sumelor cheltuite în acest scop în cazul falimentului companiei aeriene. Pe lângă riscul de faliment al companiei aeriene, care ar genera anularea biletului de avion, există diverse evenimente neprevăzute care pot împiedica efectuarea călătoriei cu avionul şi care sunt acoperite de noul produs lansat. Printre categoriile asigurate acestea se numără: boli, accidente, distrugerea locuinţei ca urmare a incendiilor, pierderea sau furtul documentelor de identitate etc. “Recomand tuturor celor care călătoresc să încheie poliţe de asigurare, fie că vorbim de asigurare medicală, de asigurare storno sau de asigurare a bagajelor. O astfel de asigurare tip “umbrelă” oferă un grad sporit de confort şi siguranţă a călătoriei” - a declarat Lucia Morariu, președintele Eximtur\n\nNoi localități-stațiuni\nCinci noi localități au primit statutul de stațiune balneoclimaterică pe baza unei Hotărâri de Guvern. Este vorba de 1 Mai, Eforie, Băile Tușnad, Geoagiu-Bai respectiv Buziaș. Nicu Rădulescu, președintele Organizației Patronale a Turismului Balnear din România (OPTBR) a declarat că dacă ministerele vor dori să facă investiții pe baza parteneriatelor publice-private, stațiunile care au statut balneoclimateric vor putea beneficia de proiecte cu prioritate.

Boa Vista este cea de-a patra destinație din arhipelagul Capului Verde către care TAP zboară de la 1 noiembrie. Compania operează curse din Lisabona către insulele Sal, Praia, Sao Vicente. În orarul de iarnă, pe ruta Lisabona-București, TAP a prevăzut doar 4 zboruri pe saptamana.\nAnul trecut compania - ce deține o flotă de 75 de aeronave cu care acoperă 78 de destinații -, a transportat 10 milioane de pasageri, în creștere cu 5% față de 2011.','TAP Portugal - patru destinații noi, TRANSPORTURI NR 116','','inherit','open','open','','2638-revision-v1','','','2014-01-21 02:31:59','2014-01-21 00:31:59','',2638,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2014/01/21/2638-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2647,1,'2014-01-21 02:35:57','2014-01-21 00:35:57','![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Bulgaria-ciocolata.jpg\" "\\"Bulgaria")

\r\n\r\nPLEVNA - Romanii sunt înca aici\r\nAici trebuie sa ajungeti. Pentru ca veti avea în fata unul dintre marile repere ale istoriei romanilor. La 1877 am fost bravi si ne-am castigat independenta în luptele de pe dealurile Plevnei. Dupa cum am aflat de la ghidul de limba romana al muzeului Panorama din Plevna, cladirea a fost ridicata în 1977, la aniversarea a 100 de ani de la batalia de la Plevna. Structura e înalta de 47 de metri si are un volum de 54.000 de metri cubi.\r\n\r\nChiar daca aminteste de arhitectura lasata mostenire de rusi, constructie înalta, greoaie, interioare cu spatii uriase, veti avea suprize de proportii. În cele patru sali importante aveti la dispozitie galeriile de tablouri cu dimensiuni uriase, printre care si cel care marcheaza predarea armatei turce în fata generalului roman Mihail Cerchez. E o realitate istorica, redata si în cateva scene ce se regasesc în Panorama, o impresionanta fresca circulara (360 de grade) ce aminteste de eroismul soldatilor cazuti la datorie.\r\n\r\nBustul Regelui Carol I este expus la loc de cinste alaturi de toate personalitatile ce au marcat istoria acelui razboi. Pe data de 10 decembrie (ziua marcheaza eliberarea Plevnei de sub jugul Otoman), dupa cîtiva ani de reamenajare, proces sustinut si de fonduri europene, cladirea se va inaugura oficial cu o moderna configurare expozitionala.\r\n\r\nPentru prima data armata romana va avea o sectiune proprie în care vor fi expuse, uniforme, arme si o copie dupa steagul victorios.\r\n\r\nDupa ce ati vizitat Panorama, faceti-va timp pentru a urca dealul Grivitei. Aici se afla un monument si un mausoleu ridicate la initiativa lui Carol I ”pentru vitejii soldati romani cazuti la Grivita”. Ele marcheaza faptele lor eroice.

Aceasta are drept scop combaterea suprapescuitului și conștientizarea consumatorului în alegerea produselor piscicole. ”Euro-Toques România s-a alăturat acestor proiecte europene din februarie 2008. Am considerat că țara noastră dispune de resurse umane, agricole și turistice uriașe și că potențialul gastronomiei românești merită fie promovat și prezentat pe piața europeană” - ne-a mai declarat Dumitru Burtea.\r\n\r\nVinarte a lansat ”Floare de Toamna”\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Ev-Vinarte-Bruno-Faleschini.jpg\" "\\"Ev")
Sergio Faleschini, președintele Vinarte a marcat împlinirea a 15 ani de la lansarea pe piață a companiei prin organizarea manifestării ”Floare de toamnă”, menită să promoveze sărbătoarea vinului nou. Aniversarea a debutat la Restaurantul Voievodal din Capitală, și a continuat în mai multe orașe mari din România. Ele au fost onorate de ambasadori, producători, importatori și distribuitori de vinuri, artiști, editori și scriitori de turism etc. Vinarte a devenit în ultimii ani unul dintre exportatorii semnificativi ai vinurilor de calitate. 2013 a adus o nouă Medalie de aur pentru Sirena Dunării, considerat cel mai bun vin dulce din Europa. Ea se alătură Medaliei de aur, pentru cel mai bun Merlot din lume, obținută de Prince Matei (2001), la Concours Mondial du Merlot, desfășurat în 2010, la Lugano (Elveția) etc.\r\n\r\nCETATEA DIN RUPEA reintră în circuit\r\n\r\nObiectivul de pe Dealul Cohalmului, este atestat documentar din anul 1342. El a fost deschis după 3 ani de ample lucrări de restaurare. Proiectul a vizat reabilitarea cetății pe o suprafață de 1,44 de hectare, a celor 7 turnuri ale cetății și a căsuțelor în care se retrăgeau locuitorii satelor în vremuri grele. De asemenea a fost pus la punct un sistem special de iluminat, au fost create noi drumuri de acces spre fortificație, un centru de informare turistică, 110 locuri de parcare din care 10 pentru autocare. Investiția de 26 de milioane de euro a beneficiat de finanțare europeană. În cadrul unui parteneriat cu Consiliul Județean Brașov se dorește introducerea Cetății Rupea într-un circuit turistic ce include orașele Brașov-Sighișoara-Sibiu - a declarat Flavius Dumitrescu, primarul orașului Rupea.\r\n\r\nȘI TOTUȘI, DRACULA... \r\n\r\n„Discover Dracula Tour - the history and the legends” este unul dintre proiectele pe care Federația Patronatelor din Turism și Servicii (FPTS) îl va derula în parteneriat cu tour-operatorul S&S Travel pentru atragerea turiștilor străini în România. Dan Matei Agathon, președintele FPTS, spune că proiectul va fi promovat pentru început în China, Thailanda și Japonia, acolo unde există un interes sporit pentru locurile de legendă ale lui Dracula. Turul are în program 7 zile și 8 nopți. El începe din București, unde turiștii vor vizita Palatul Parlamentului, Palatul Cotroceni și Centrul Vechi, și continuă cu vizitarea Castelelor Peleș și Bran și a orașelor Brașov și Sighișoara. Liderul FPTS a precizat că ”dacă România nu va profita de acest brand o vor face vecinii noștri. În Serbia există deja o inițiativă de a transforma legenda lui Vlad Țepeș într-o poveste sârbească și a creea din ea un produs turistic național.\r\n\r\nVOM AVEA ȘI O STAȚIUNE TURISTICĂ LA VIDRARU\r\n\r\nCel puțin așa a anunțat Pavel Bârlă, președintele Asociației de Dezvoltare Intercomunitară (ADI) Molivisu. Ea a fost constituită prin parteneriatul dintre administrațiile locale din comunele Arefu, Brăduleț și Cicănești cu Consiliul Județean Argeș. Lucrările de amenajare, ce se ridică la peste 73 de milioane de lei, au demarat în luna aprilie 2013 și beneficiază de susținere financiară europeană. Proiectul, care va fi finalizat cel mai târziu în iunie 2015, prevede amenajarea a două pârtii de schi, una dotată cu instalație de transport pe cablu mixtă - telegondola-teleschi - și una dotată cu un covor rulant, precum și construirea unui observator turistic la 1.620 de metri altitudine. Energia necesară pentru iluminatul nocturn va fi asigurată de o centrală solară.\r\nStațiunea turistică Vidraru va fi compusă din opt cartiere ale căror amplasamente au fost deja stabilite. Spațiile de cazare, agrement și alimentație publicăvor fi construite de investitori privați.\r\n\r\nVA FI REABILITATĂ CRUCEA DE PE VÂRFUL CARAIMAN\r\n\r\nArhitectul Dan Manea, din Sinaia a lansat o campanie de strângere de fonduri pentru restaurarea Crucii Eroilor Neamului ce cunoaște un stadiu avansat de uzură tehnică. Prin campania denumită „Dați un ban pentru Caraiman!” el și-a propus să restaureze, să realibiliteze și să reintroducă în circuitul turistic acest monument vechi de aproape 100 de ani. La începutul secolului al XX-lea, monumentul amplasat la peste 2000 de metri altitudine era considerat cea mai înaltă structură metalică din Europa. Proiectată de inginerii români, Teofil Revici și Alfred Pilder, crucea a fost executată din profile de oțel de la Reșița. Conform estimărilor restaurarea completă a monumentului depășește 100.000 de euro.','”THE HEALING SOURCES: ”Covasna are un potențial uriaș!” - EVENIMENTE nr.117-118','','publish','open','open','','the-healing-sources-covasna-are-un-potential-urias-evenimente-nr-117-118','','','2014-03-03 17:05:12','2014-03-03 15:05:12','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2677',0,'post','',0),(2678,1,'2014-03-03 16:58:55','2014-03-03 14:58:55','','Ev Covasna1','','inherit','open','open','','ev-covasna1','','','2014-03-03 16:58:55','2014-03-03 14:58:55','',2677,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Ev-Covasna1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2679,1,'2014-03-03 16:59:30','2014-03-03 14:59:30','','Ev Covasna 2','','inherit','open','open','','ev-covasna-2','','','2014-03-03 16:59:30','2014-03-03 14:59:30','',2677,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Ev-Covasna-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2680,1,'2014-03-03 17:00:05','2014-03-03 15:00:05','','Ev OurHeritage sigla','','inherit','open','open','','ev-ourheritage-sigla','','','2014-03-03 17:00:05','2014-03-03 15:00:05','',2677,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Ev-OurHeritage-sigla.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2681,1,'2014-03-03 17:00:24','2014-03-03 15:00:24','','Ev Our Heritage2','','inherit','open','open','','ev-our-heritage2','','','2014-03-03 17:00:24','2014-03-03 15:00:24','',2677,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Ev-Our-Heritage2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2682,1,'2014-03-03 17:00:53','2014-03-03 15:00:53','','Ev Bucharest Shopping','','inherit','open','open','','ev-bucharest-shopping','','','2014-03-03 17:00:53','2014-03-03 15:00:53','',2677,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Ev-Bucharest-Shopping.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2683,1,'2014-03-03 17:01:19','2014-03-03 15:01:19','','Ev pirtii schi','','inherit','open','open','','ev-pirtii-schi','','','2014-03-03 17:01:19','2014-03-03 15:01:19','',2677,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Ev-pirtii-schi.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2684,1,'2014-03-03 17:02:26','2014-03-03 15:02:26','','Ev Vinarte Bruno Faleschini','','inherit','open','open','','ev-vinarte-bruno-faleschini','','','2014-03-03 17:02:26','2014-03-03 15:02:26','',2677,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Ev-Vinarte-Bruno-Faleschini.tif',0,'attachment','image/tiff',0),(2685,1,'2014-03-03 17:03:26','2014-03-03 15:03:26','','Ev Vinarte Bruno Faleschini','','inherit','open','open','','ev-vinarte-bruno-faleschini-2','','','2014-03-03 17:03:26','2014-03-03 15:03:26','',2677,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Ev-Vinarte-Bruno-Faleschini1.tif',0,'attachment','image/tiff',0),(2686,1,'2014-03-03 17:04:13','2014-03-03 15:04:13','','Ev Vinarte Bruno Faleschini','','inherit','open','open','','ev-vinarte-bruno-faleschini-3','','','2014-03-03 17:04:13','2014-03-03 15:04:13','',2677,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Ev-Vinarte-Bruno-Faleschini.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2687,1,'2014-03-03 17:04:41','2014-03-03 15:04:41','”THE HEALING SOURCES: ”Covasna are un potențial uriaș!”\n\n\n\nUn grup de jurnaliști de la publicația britanică de specialitate The Healing Sources, a vizitat 12 țări europene, de la Marea Baltică până la Marea Neagră.

Am considerat că țara noastră dispune de resurse umane, agricole și turistice uriașe și că potențialul gastronomiei românești merită fie promovat și prezentat pe piața europeană” - ne-a mai declarat Dumitru Burtea.\n\nVinarte a lansat ”Floare de Toamna”\nSergio Faleschini, președintele Vinarte a marcat împlinirea a 15 ani de la lansarea pe piață a companiei prin organizarea manifestării ”Floare de toamnă”, menită să promoveze sărbătoarea vinului nou. Aniversarea a debutat la Restaurantul Voievodal din Capitală, și a continuat în mai multe orașe mari din România. Ele au fost onorate de ambasadori, producători, importatori și distribuitori de vinuri, artiști, editori și scriitori de turism etc. Vinarte a devenit în ultimii ani unul dintre exportatorii semnificativi ai vinurilor de calitate. 2013 a adus o nouă Medalie de aur pentru Sirena Dunării, considerat cel mai bun vin dulce din Europa. Ea se alătură Medaliei de aur, pentru cel mai bun Merlot din lume, obținută de Prince Matei (2001), la Concours Mondial du Merlot, desfășurat în 2010, la Lugano (Elveția) etc.\n\nCETATEA DIN RUPEA reintră în circuit\n\nObiectivul de pe Dealul Cohalmului, este atestat documentar din anul 1342. El a fost deschis după 3 ani de ample lucrări de restaurare. Proiectul a vizat reabilitarea cetății pe o suprafață de 1,44 de hectare, a celor 7 turnuri ale cetății și a căsuțelor în care se retrăgeau locuitorii satelor în vremuri grele. De asemenea a fost pus la punct un sistem special de iluminat, au fost create noi drumuri de acces spre fortificație, un centru de informare turistică, 110 locuri de parcare din care 10 pentru autocare. Investiția de 26 de milioane de euro a beneficiat de finanțare europeană. În cadrul unui parteneriat cu Consiliul Județean Brașov se dorește introducerea Cetății Rupea într-un circuit turistic ce include orașele Brașov-Sighișoara-Sibiu - a declarat Flavius Dumitrescu, primarul orașului Rupea.\n\nȘI TOTUȘI, DRACULA... \n\n„Discover Dracula Tour - the history and the legends” este unul dintre proiectele pe care Federația Patronatelor din Turism și Servicii (FPTS) îl va derula în parteneriat cu tour-operatorul S&S Travel pentru atragerea turiștilor străini în România. Dan Matei Agathon, președintele FPTS, spune că proiectul va fi promovat pentru început în China, Thailanda și Japonia, acolo unde există un interes sporit pentru locurile de legendă ale lui Dracula. Turul are în program 7 zile și 8 nopți. El începe din București, unde turiștii vor vizita Palatul Parlamentului, Palatul Cotroceni și Centrul Vechi, și continuă cu vizitarea Castelelor Peleș și Bran și a orașelor Brașov și Sighișoara. Liderul FPTS a precizat că ”dacă România nu va profita de acest brand o vor face vecinii noștri. În Serbia există deja o inițiativă de a transforma legenda lui Vlad Țepeș într-o poveste sârbească și a creea din ea un produs turistic național.\n\nVOM AVEA ȘI O STAȚIUNE TURISTICĂ LA VIDRARU\n\nCel puțin așa a anunțat Pavel Bârlă, președintele Asociației de Dezvoltare Intercomunitară (ADI) Molivisu. Ea a fost constituită prin parteneriatul dintre administrațiile locale din comunele Arefu, Brăduleț și Cicănești cu Consiliul Județean Argeș. Lucrările de amenajare, ce se ridică la peste 73 de milioane de lei, au demarat în luna aprilie 2013 și beneficiază de susținere financiară europeană. Proiectul, care va fi finalizat cel mai târziu în iunie 2015, prevede amenajarea a două pârtii de schi, una dotată cu instalație de transport pe cablu mixtă - telegondola-teleschi - și una dotată cu un covor rulant, precum și construirea unui observator turistic la 1.620 de metri altitudine. Energia necesară pentru iluminatul nocturn va fi asigurată de o centrală solară.\nStațiunea turistică Vidraru va fi compusă din opt cartiere ale căror amplasamente au fost deja stabilite. Spațiile de cazare, agrement și alimentație publicăvor fi construite de investitori privați.\n\nVA FI REABILITATĂ CRUCEA DE PE VÂRFUL CARAIMAN\n\nArhitectul Dan Manea, din Sinaia a lansat o campanie de strângere de fonduri pentru restaurarea Crucii Eroilor Neamului ce cunoaște un stadiu avansat de uzură tehnică. Prin campania denumită „Dați un ban pentru Caraiman!” el și-a propus să restaureze, să realibiliteze și să reintroducă în circuitul turistic acest monument vechi de aproape 100 de ani. La începutul secolului al XX-lea, monumentul amplasat la peste 2000 de metri altitudine era considerat cea mai înaltă structură metalică din Europa. Proiectată de inginerii români, Teofil Revici și Alfred Pilder, crucea a fost executată din profile de oțel de la Reșița. Conform estimărilor restaurarea completă a monumentului depășește 100.000 de euro.','”THE HEALING SOURCES: ”Covasna are un potențial uriaș!” - EVENIMENTE nr.117-118','','inherit','open','open','','2677-revision','','','2014-03-03 17:04:41','2014-03-03 15:04:41','',2677,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2014/03/03/2677-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2689,1,'2014-03-03 17:17:31','2014-03-03 15:17:31','Hotelierii încearcă să recompună aria ospitalității\r\n\r\nPe piața hotelieră a apărut o nouă organizație.

Surse din piață au anunțat că vânzarea a fost evaluată la 20 de milioane de euro, sumă ce ar putea acoperi o parte din datoriile World Trade Center București (WTCB), proprietara hotelului, aflată în insolvență.

Tot la București a venit Cristian Sallai, marketing & sales manager al Biroului regional pentru Bosnia și Herțegovina, Bulgaria, Croația, Muntenegru, Serbia și România. El a pus în mișcare mașinăria comunicării internaționale cu ”șlagărele” ce vor fi interpretatre de Germania în 2014, pentru Europa de Est. Destinația de vacanță Germania se bucură în continuare de succes. O contribuție semnificativă la această creștere o turiștii străini. Conform Institutului Federal de Statistică, în 2012 s-au înregistrat peste 68,8 milioane de înnoptări ale străinilor în unități de cazare cu zece sau mai multe paturi, cifra marcând un plus de 8,1 procente comparativ cu anul trecut. Mai mult de 52 de milioane de înnoptări au fost consumate de turiștii europeni.\r\n\r\nPromovare pe muzică de Bach\r\n\r\nConform studiilor realizate de Oficiul de Turism al Germaniei (DZT), Germania este apreciată de către turiștii din lumea întreagă ca fiind o destinație culturală, având 38 de situri în patrimoniul mondial UNESCO, număr ce o situează pe locul al treilea la nivel mondial, împreună cu Franța. În plus, anul 2014 se anunță a fi ofertant din punct vedere cultural, întrucât se sărbătoresc și împlinirea a 25 de ani de la căderea Zidului Berlinului, precum și 300 de ani de la nașterea lui C.P.E. Bach (compozitor german, fiul lui Johann Sebastian Bach). ʺSperăm ca și în continuare, pentru 2013, cifrele să se dezvolte pozitiv și ne așteptăm la un plus de două până la trei procente pentru incoming-ul Germaniei. La o dezvoltare dinamică pe cele mai importante piețe sursă, tindem să atingem până în 2020 pragul de 80 de milioane de înnoptări ale turiștilor din străinătateʺ - ne declara Petra Hedorfer, Președinte al Consiliului de Administrație a Organizaţiei Germane pentru Turism (DZT).\r\n\r\nCe spune World Travel Monitor !\r\n\r\nȚările din sud-estul Europei reprezintă piețe de creștere importante pentru turismul Germaniei. ʺÎn 2012 am putut înregistra peste 1,9 milioane de călătorii în Germania din Bosnia și Herțegovina, Bulgaria, Croația, Muntenegru, România și Serbiaʺ, conform declarațiilor Petrei Hedorfer. La o creștere medie de circa trei procente pe an, volumul vizitelor în Germania de pe aceste piețe sursă va ajunge la mai mult de două milioane de călătorii până în anul 2020. Conform DZT și a World Travel Monitor de la IPK International, România a înregistrat în 2012 peste 525.000 de călătorii în Germania. Acest lucru reprezintă o creștere de 11,0 procente comparativ cu aceeași perioadă a anului trecut. Destinația de vacanță Germania ocupă astfel locul al doilea în ceea ce privește cele mai iubite destinații de vacanță străine ale turiștilor din România.\r\n\r\n35% din călătoriile turiștilor români în Germania sunt vacanțe – 40% dintre acestea se încadrează în segmentul călătoriilor în orașe și călătorii pentru evenimente speciale. 41% din sejururi sunt călătorii în interes de afaceri. Cu 30,2% din totalul înnoptărilor, Bayern reprezintă landul federal cel mai vizitat de turiștii români. Per total, 93% din călătoriile turiștilor români în Germania sunt sejururi mai lungi (peste patru zile). În medie, au cheltuit pentru o călătorie 658 Euro. Volumul cifrei de afaceri total a călătoriilor în Germania a turiștilor din România se ridică pentru anul 2012 la peste 300 milioane de euro.\r\n“Germania este și va rămâne în continuare una dintre cele mai îndrăgite destinații de vacanță atât la nivel mondial, cât și în preferințele românilor.

Fie ca vor opta pentru destinatii autohtone sau de pe alte continente, cei care vor ajunge la Targul de Turism al Romaniei se pot bucura de pachete personalizate, cu facilitati incluse pentru familii, tineri sau pensionari. Cum bugetul mediu al unei familii pentru vacanta din vara acestui an se situeaza in jurul sumei de 1.500 de euro, conform reprezentantilor agentiilor de turism, destinatiile preferate vor ramane in continuare Grecia, Turcia, Spania si Bulgaria, insa nici litoralul romanesc sau statiunile balneoclimaterice autohtone nu vor lipsi din alegerile turistilor. Pentru cei care isi doresc sa aiba parte de aventuri, tari precum China, India, Maroc sau Malaezia ii asteapta cu peisaje si trasee de neuitat. Mai mult decat atat, la Targul de Turism al Romaniei vor fi lansate campanii de promovare in premiera: Mamaia Style – replica autohtona a Festivalului de la Rio, promovata de primarul Constantei, Radu Mazare va debuta joi, 13 martie, la ROMEXPO. Vesti bune vin din partea operatorilor din turism in ceea ce priveste preferintele turistilor romani. Astfel, in cadrul conferintei de presa ce a precedat organizarea Targului de Turism al Romaniei, reprezentantii agentiilor de turism au declarant ca in ultima perioada litoralul autohton a castigat lupta cu cel bulgaresc prin prisma posibilitatilor de distractie, cazare si evenimente oferite de statiuni cu renume precum Mamaia. In ceea ce priveste costurile pentru petrecerea unei zile in statiunile de pe litoralul romanesc, acestea variaza intre 100 si 300 de lei, in functie de prestigiul statiunii. Tot in cadrul conferintei de presa a fost evidentiat succesul programelor Early Booking - 20% dintre acestea (lansate la editia din toamna anului 2013 a Targului de Turism al Romaniei) fiind deja vandute, noi achizitii prefigurandu-se cu ocazia evenimentului ce sta sa inceapa.\r\n\r\nTargul de Turism al Romaniei va reuni in Pavilioanele C1, C2, C3, C4, C5 si C6 oferte turistice din toata lumea, la preturi foarte atractive! In completarea vacantelor oferite de Targul de Turism al Romaniei vine un al doilea eveniment care este organizat tot in aceasta perioada la ROMEXPO - Festivalul de spiritualitate, medicina alternativa si terapii complementare - TMA, ajuns la cea de a patra editie. Pentru ca relaxarea este un lucru atat de necesar zilnic, dar cu atat mai mult inaintea perioadelor de vacanta, vizitatorii sunt asteptati in Pavilioanele E1 si E2 ale Centrului Expozitional ROMEXPO pentru a fi mai aproape de un trai sanatos in aglomeratia si agitatia acestui secol.\r\n\r\nProgramul de vizitare al evenimentelor este urmatorul: 13 - 15 martie 2014: intre 10.00 - 18.00, 16 martie 2014: intre 10.00 - 16.00. Locul de desfasurare: Pavilioanele C1, C2, C3, C4, C5 si C6. Pretul unui bilet de acces este de 15 lei.

Se vede cu ochiul liber. A venit timpul investițiilor în promovarea turistică dacă vrei să ai imagine, vizibilitate, respect, succes, bani. S-a simțit nevoia de a cristaliza și organiza evenimente care să consolideze această piață. O primă lecție, învățată după apariția crizei, este că poți face promovare și cu bugete mici, dar cu multă inovație și devotament. Aici intervin parteneriatul și voluntariatul profesional.\r\n\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\n\r\nManifestarea ”Criteriul Primei Zăpezi”, desfășurată merită pe deplin apreciată drept cel mai important eveniment internaţional de promovare de până acum a turismului din Prahova. Firește, nu vorbim de evenimente sportive ci turistice. La ediția din anul acesta au fost prezenți atât touroperatori cât și jurnaliști străini, invitați de Ministerul și al Turismului și Autoritatea Națională de profil. Ambele instituții încorsetate de compromisul contestării licitațiilor pentru eveniment, au sprijinit financiar evenimentul dar în egală măsură i-au și deturnat o parte din activitățile proiectate a avea loc în județul Brașov.

Sloganul sub care s-a desfășurat a fost “Learn to ski in România”. Densitatea manifestării a fost dată de agenda evenimentelor. Bursa de turism de la Cazinoul din Sinaia a atras proprietari ori manageri de hoteluri, moteluri, pensiuni. Bătaia, cum era de așteptat s-a dat pe ofertele de Crăciun și Revelion. Dar unele companii s-au concentrat pe oferte neperisabile, cu sezonalitate mai lungă. Am remarcat poziționarea lanțului Internațional, Asociațiile de promovare și turistice din Sinaia și Bușteni, Complexul hotelier Nicoltana din Cheia, dar și pensiunile ori hotelurile de dimensiuni mici precum Complexul Cochet (excelente finisaje), Casa Freya (peisaj natural și spa fermecătoare), Vila Cristina (puteți să visați și aici), Casa Magică (căutați magia patiseriei și clătitelor făcute de gazde), Hotel Cumpătul (confort de 5 stele, restaurantul prea sufocat de trofee de vînătoare), Fetească Neagră (pensiune tocmai bună pentru a pleca pe Drumul Vinului), Hotel Alexandros (care încearcă să se reinventeze) etc. Bursa a fost dublată de o Conferință tematică „Branding turistic naţional şi regional: Turismul activ şi de aventură” respectiv Gala Premiilor turismului prahovean.

Printre numele importante s-au aflat: Rodrigo Delpech din SUA, de 17 ori campion mondial, Denny Bakiev din Ucraina, câștigătorul celei de-a 11-a ediții a Champions Flair Crash, Tomek Malek din Polonia, triplu campion mondial, Marek Posluszny din Polonia, câștigătorul celei de-a 10-a ediții a Champions Flair Crash, Tom Dyer din Marea Britanie, campion mondial și campionul Angliei etc. Champions Sport Bar a devenit astfel, pentru o seară, scena unor reprezentații spectaculoase, incendiare, cu demonstrații incredibile de dexteritate, și au marcat un eveniment unic în țara noastră.\n\nJuriul - format din Andy Collinson – manager WFA din Marea Britanie, Oliver Pluck - organizatorul Roadhouse, Marius Gogoașă - manager Exquisite Bar Solutions și Costin Bucur – administrator Exquisite Bar Solutions -, a avut o misiune dificilă în a stabili ierahia evoluțiilor de la actuala ediție în care au fost oferite premii în valoare totală de 5.800 de euro. Câștigătorul celei de-a 12-a ediții a Champions Flair Crash a fost desemnat Alexander Shtifanov din Rusia. El a fost secondat de polonezul Posluszny Marek și britanicul Tom Dyer. Pe următoarele locuri s-au clasat Danny Bakiev (Ukraina), Adam Branzyk (Polonia), Roman Zapata (Argentina), Vitaly Colpin (Rusia), Liviu Croitoru (România), Mateo Mellara (Italia), respectiv Slava Belyakov (Rusia).\n\nMARA ANTON\n\n\n\nIULIA SCAVO în Top 3 european\n
\n\nRomânca Iulia Scavo (fostă Goșea) s-a clasat pe locul trei în finala Concursului Best Sommelier of Europe (Cel mai Bun Somelier din Europa). Cea de-a 14-a ediție a competiției s-a desfășurat sub egida ASI (Asociația Internațională a Somelierilor) la San Remo și Monte Carlo și a reunit participanți din 38 de țări. Primul loc a fost adjudecat de Arvid Rosengren (Suedia), urmat de David Biraud (Franța).\n\nMembră a Asociației Somelierilor din România Iulia Scavo este unul dintre cei mai titrați somelieri din țara noastră.

Pajiștea - adică Las Vegas, a fost descoperită la 1829 de către negustorii spanioli ce străbăteau mijlocul deșertului, pe un drum ce lega Texas de California. Vegasul era căutat de comercianți datorită... izvorului ce se găsește aici. The Meadow este acum o rezervație ce protejează natura dar totodată vorbește și despre istoria orașului.\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\n\r\nAm regăsit Las Vegas, cum altfel, electrizant și atractiv, asediat de cazinouri și jucători înrăiți, amatori de nunți (peste 200.000 pe an), dar și spectacole (dintre care nu mai puțin de 8 sunt prezentate săptămânal de celebra companie Cirque du Soleil). Le Reve (Visul), de la complexul hotelier Wynn - care se desfășoară într-un bazin de 10 metri adâncime, plin cu apă -, ține de ceva timp capul de afiș al evenimentelor culturale din Vegas. Cât despre căsătorii ce să vă mai spunem. Și ele fac parte din același spectacol turistic fabulos. Am asistat la o simulare de nuntă la care ofițerul de ceremonii era sosia lui... Elvis Presley. Imaginea artistului este cea mai solicitată pentru a gira asemenea căsătorii. În Las Vegas există 6 persoane licențiate să susțină ceremonii îmbrăcate în Elvis. Inovația ultimilor doi ani o reprezintă însă Drive in Marriage. Cuplul merge la un ghișeu, precum la un fast food, dă documentele necesare oficializării căsătoriei, și este întrebat oficial dacă dorește să se căsătorească. Ceremonia durează maxim 10 minute iar cei doi îndrăgostiți nici nu trebuie să coboare din mașină. Numeroase firme se ocupă exclusiv de ceremoniile de căsătorie ce pot fi ad-hoc, caz în care trebuie să aleagă costume pentru miri, să obțină actele necesare și tot ce mai este necesar pentru ziua nunții. Dacă nu știți, vă garantăm noi, puteți să vă căsătoriți, stând în mașină, intrând confortabil cu ea în capelă, unde Elvis Presley sau altă sosie de vedetă solicitată, vor oficia ceremonia de căsătorie. Inclusiv, cu un desert muzical... solicitat anterior. După cum se vede Elvis n-a murit, amintirea lui e vie printre noi.\r\nȘi pentru că tot a venit vorba de evenimente și ceremonii. Înainte de a pleca în Post-turul de documentare tematică, organizat cu ocazia International POW WOW, cel mai mare târg de business turistic din lume -, trebuie să amintesc de o manifestare de impact pentru echipa românească ce a participat la IPW Las Vegas. În cadrul festivității dedicată travel agenților internaționali George Sorin Nicolescu, președintele companiei Olimpic International Turism, a fost premiat cu suma de... 2.500 de dolari, în cecuri de călătorie, de către sponsorul American Express. Ele i-au fost înmânate de către Roger Dow, președintele US Travel Association.\r\n\r\nRENO - cum cresc divorțurile cota de piață\r\nLa o oră distanță cu avionul, în nordul statului Nevada, se află Reno- orașul dintre cele două state – Nevada și California. Jumătate din el este pe teritoriul Californiei. Aici nu există cazinouri dar există restricții la băutură. Cealaltă jumătate este în Nevada - locul unde totul este permis, spun locuitorii din Reno. Pe timpul Prohibiției, Reno a fost primul oraș din SUA care a legalizat 3 activități ccare au contribuit la ”creșterea cotei de piață”: divorțurile, cazinourile și prostituția. Reno reprezintă o variantă mai liniștită a Las Vegas-ului, cu numeroase hoteluri ce dețin cazinouri mari în lobby. Cel mai frumos obiectiv turistic al orașului este Muzeul Automobilului, amenajat ca un oraș acoperit. Colecția cuprinde peste 150 de modele diferite de mașini arătând întreaga dezvoltare a acestor iubite vehicule. De la Reno am început aventura descoperirii unei părți fascinante a statului Nevada. Nordul statului a fost marcat de industria miniera, fiind o zonă foarte bogată acum o sută de ani.\r\n\r\nVIRGINIA CITY - fantome și femei îmbrăcate în dolari\r\nPrima oprire în cadrul periplului în nordul Nevadei a fost la Virginia City. Cu puțin peste 800 de locuitori el este unul dintre cele mai interesante orașe ale vestului sălbatic. În secolul al XIX-lea era unul dintre cele mai căutate orașe pentru amatorii de îmbogățire rapidă. Pe atunci avea 15.000 de locuitori. O dată cu închiderea minei la 1874, orașul și pierdut din atractivitate, ca de altfel atâtea mii de așezări din SUA, care sunt ținute în viață doar de circulația turistică. Virginia City a rămas un loc istoric, plin de legende în care cowboy-ii se luptau pe viață și pe moarte. Totul pare desprins din filmele de la Holywood cu cowboy și vestul sălbatic. Personaje îmbrăcate ca pe vremurile de glorie ale orașului se plimbă pe străzile orașului. Prima oprire a fost la Cimitirul Silver Terrace unde am fost primiți de către ,,fantomele” legendare ale orașului. Actorii ne-au povestit viețile mai multor persoane îngropate acolo. Impresionantă era viața pe care femeile o duceau pe atunci, care deși bogate, trebuiau să țină casa singure și să îngrijească copiii, deoarece soții erau mereu la mină. De la cimitir, loc unde cu siguranță începeai să înțelegi cât de cât ce se întâmpla în perioada de glorie, pleci la plimbare cu un trenuleț turistic ce îți prezintă canionul ,,6 Miles”, vechea gară și urcă spre strada principală – Comstock. Strada este plină de vechi ,saloons”, de povești și legende printre care și cea a Bucket of Blood Saloon, nume preluat din cauza faptului că în fața acestui local aveau loc numeroase dispute mortale între cavalerii timpului. Există mine în care se poate coborî pentru a vedea cum era exploatat argintul, magazine unde se vinde piatra locală – turcoazul alb, localuri cu cazinouri, capele de ceremonii dar și un salon cu un tablou foarte interesat. El redă o femeie îmbrăcată numai în monede de argint![\"\"](\"http://cdncache-a.akamaihd.net/items/it/img/arrow-10x10.png\"){kind=icon}
cunoscut și ca Silver Lady, ceea ce a dat și numele salonului. Rochia doamnei din tablou este decorată cu 3.261 dolari de argint \"Morgan\" turnați la monetăria din Carson City. Farmecul orașului Virginia City este cu siguranță dat de locuitorii săi, mari iubitori ai istoriei locului, ce se îmbracă în haine de epocă și ghidează vizitatorii conducându-i la spectacole tradiționale sau la muzee.\r\n\r\nCARSON CITY - o invitație spre Tahoe\r\nDe la Virginia City îți trebui cam o oră până la Carson City, capitala statului. Oraș mic și liniștit în comparație cu agitatul Las Vegas, Carson City adăpostește Capitoliul și muzeul statului Nevada. Aici puteți afla întreaga istorie a zonei și cum aceasta s-a dezvoltat datorită minieritului și legalizării unor activități ce în restul SUA erau interzise. Instituția este găzduită de fosta clădire a monetăriei. Din Carson City ne-am îndreptat pe un drum înconjurat de pajiști verzi către Genoa. Un oraș de buzunar în care principala atracție este cel mai vechi Saloon din Nevada - Genoa Bar and Saloon. Construit la 1851 în stil victorian târziu de către mormoni Genoa a fost un punct important de oprire a călătorilor pe California Trail. De la Genoa plecăm în documentarea noastre spre Lacul Tahoe, cu celebra stațiune North Lake Tahoe iubită de locuitorii Californiei și Nevadei. Și aceasta este jumătate în California și jumătate în Nevada, și au aceleași tipare economice amintite înainte. Partea din California seamănă cu o fată mare, în comparație cu cea din Nevada care ar fi un deșert al pierzaniei de bani, al rătăcirii după femei și băutură. Firește, poveștile și legendele lucrează foarte bine pentru industria turistică de azi. Din cochetul port de pe malul lacului Tahoe, se pleacă în mici croaziere cu vapoare decupate parcă din poveștile lui Mark Twain - celebrele Nave cu Zbaturi. Plimbarea se face la apusul soarelui iar la bord este oferită și cina. Lacul Tahoe este cel mai mare lac alpin din America de Nord. El este situat la altitudinea de 1.899,5 de metri, deasupra nivelului mării și are o adâncimea medie de 300 de metri, cea maximă atingând 501 de metri. Arealul Lacului Tahoe este una dintre cele mai vizitate regiunii datorită numărului mare de resorturi hoteliere și domenii schiabile, dar și pentru practicarea sporturilor acvatice. Legenda spune că lacul ar ascunde un monstru marin numit Tessie, care ar ieși din când în când la suprafață, un fel de... frate sau văr al lui Loch Ness din Scoția. Povestea datează și a fost transmisă din secolul al XIX-lea, de pe vremea în care zona era populată de triburile indigene Washoe și Paiute.\r\n\r\nMĂDĂLINA NICOLESCU','Casatorii, fast food si deserturi muzicale, MAPAMOND nr. 119','','publish','open','open','','casatorii-fast-food-si-deserturi-muzicale-mapamond-nr-119','','','2014-04-11 08:58:05','2014-04-11 06:58:05','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2770',0,'post','',0),(2750,1,'2014-03-04 01:33:37','2014-03-03 23:33:37','Se mai îndoiește cineva că turismul este o industrie generoasă!

\r\n\r\nÎn acest context, plin de optimism, oficialitățile române ale turismului au pus în mișcare subiecte pe care le consideră stringente. Unele dintre ele sunt reale - Legea Turismului, Legea Tichetelor de masă, Noul sistem de clasificare, Recalibrarea investițională în turismul balnear, Creșterea gradului de absorbție a Fondurilor Europene etc - dar nu toate decisive pentru relansarea economică. Într-o emisiune TV ministrul Maria Grapini a oferit un cocktail de afirmații și informații bine mixate pe sticlă. Unii reprezentanți ai mediului de afaceri au încercat să schimbe macazul spre o altă abordare dar moderatorii, înrămați într-un format confortabil, n-au înțeles despre ce era vorba. Un subiect vital pentru relansarea turismului național este recunoașterea de către oficialități a activităților de INCOMING ca EXPORT TURISTIC.\r\n\r\nȘi taxarea lui cu 0% TVA, conform normelor practicate exporturilor realizate de România. Nu este vorba de facilități fiscale, de coliziuni cu normele europene sau că s-ar pierde ceva la bugetul de stat. Este vorba de intrarea, după aproape 25 de ani, într-o normalitate care ar stimulatoare și profitabilă atât pentru stat cât și pentru mediul privat din turism. Desenat de către câteva asociații, organizații ori federații, cu lideri vocali dar cu priorități diferite, acest mediu se dovedește încă lipsit de forța necesară de a juca pe mize mari la... masa deciziilor. Taxarea Incomingului ca export turistic, cu 0% TVA, este o asemenea miză. Declarați 2014 Anul Incomingului Românesc. Și veți juca în liga turistică a campionilor. Paradoxal - deși nu există risc, toți actorii din turism au de câștigat de la imagine publică, blazoane politice, prestigiu, până la bani și taxe -, aproape nimeni nu e dispus să se implice. Probabil, e nevoie de sânge proaspăt, de inovație, de o nouă generație de jucători. Sincer vorbind, aici Grapini are dreptate.','Declarati 2014 Anul Incomingului - EDITORIAL nr. 117-118','','publish','open','open','','declarati-2014-anul-incomingului-editorial-nr-117-118','','','2014-03-04 01:35:10','2014-03-03 23:35:10','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2750',0,'post','',0),(2751,1,'2014-03-04 01:33:22','2014-03-03 23:33:22','Se mai îndoiește cineva că turismul este o industrie generoasă!

O parte dintre cei mai talentați barmani s-au întâlnit la J.W. Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel, într-un show absolut inedit. Printre numele importante s-au aflat: Rodrigo Delpech din SUA, de 17 ori campion mondial, Denny Bakiev din Ucraina, câștigătorul celei de-a 11-a ediții a Champions Flair Crash, Tomek Malek din Polonia, triplu campion mondial, Marek Posluszny din Polonia, câștigătorul celei de-a 10-a ediții a Champions Flair Crash, Tom Dyer din Marea Britanie, campion mondial și campionul Angliei etc. Champions Sport Bar a devenit astfel, pentru o seară, scena unor reprezentații spectaculoase, incendiare, cu demonstrații incredibile de dexteritate, și au marcat un eveniment unic în țara noastră.\r\n\r\nJuriul - format din Andy Collinson – manager WFA din Marea Britanie, Oliver Pluck - organizatorul Roadhouse, Marius Gogoașă - manager Exquisite Bar Solutions și Costin Bucur – administrator Exquisite Bar Solutions -, a avut o misiune dificilă în a stabili ierahia evoluțiilor de la actuala ediție în care au fost oferite premii în valoare totală de 5.800 de euro.

Tot la București a venit Cristian Sallai, marketing & sales manager al Biroului regional pentru Bosnia și Herțegovina, Bulgaria, Croația, Muntenegru, Serbia și România. El a pus în mișcare mașinăria comunicării internaționale cu ”șlagărele” ce vor fi interpretatre de Germania în 2014, pentru Europa de Est. Destinația de vacanță Germania se bucură în continuare de succes. O contribuție semnificativă la această creștere o turiștii străini. Conform Institutului Federal de Statistică, în 2012 s-au înregistrat peste 68,8 milioane de înnoptări ale străinilor în unități de cazare cu zece sau mai multe paturi, cifra marcând un plus de 8,1 procente comparativ cu anul trecut. Mai mult de 52 de milioane de înnoptări au fost consumate de turiștii europeni.\r\n\r\nPromovare pe muzică de Bach\r\n\r\nConform studiilor realizate de Oficiul de Turism al Germaniei (DZT), Germania este apreciată de către turiștii din lumea întreagă ca fiind o destinație culturală, având 38 de situri în patrimoniul mondial UNESCO, număr ce o situează pe locul al treilea la nivel mondial, împreună cu Franța. În plus, anul 2014 se anunță a fi ofertant din punct vedere cultural, întrucât se sărbătoresc și împlinirea a 25 de ani de la căderea Zidului Berlinului, precum și 300 de ani de la nașterea lui C.P.E. Bach (compozitor german, fiul lui Johann Sebastian Bach). ʺSperăm ca și în continuare, pentru 2013, cifrele să se dezvolte pozitiv și ne așteptăm la un plus de două până la trei procente pentru incoming-ul Germaniei. La o dezvoltare dinamică pe cele mai importante piețe sursă, tindem să atingem până în 2020 pragul de 80 de milioane de înnoptări ale turiștilor din străinătateʺ - ne declara Petra Hedorfer, Președinte al Consiliului de Administrație a Organizaţiei Germane pentru Turism (DZT).\r\n\r\nCe spune World Travel Monitor !\r\n\r\nȚările din sud-estul Europei reprezintă piețe de creștere importante pentru turismul Germaniei. ʺÎn 2012 am putut înregistra peste 1,9 milioane de călătorii în Germania din Bosnia și Herțegovina, Bulgaria, Croația, Muntenegru, România și Serbiaʺ, conform declarațiilor Petrei Hedorfer. La o creștere medie de circa trei procente pe an, volumul vizitelor în Germania de pe aceste piețe sursă va ajunge la mai mult de două milioane de călătorii până în anul 2020. Conform DZT și a World Travel Monitor de la IPK International, România a înregistrat în 2012 peste 525.000 de călătorii în Germania. Acest lucru reprezintă o creștere de 11,0 procente comparativ cu aceeași perioadă a anului trecut. Destinația de vacanță Germania ocupă astfel locul al doilea în ceea ce privește cele mai iubite destinații de vacanță străine ale turiștilor din România.\r\n\r\n35% din călătoriile turiștilor români în Germania sunt vacanțe – 40% dintre acestea se încadrează în segmentul călătoriilor în orașe și călătorii pentru evenimente speciale. 41% din sejururi sunt călătorii în interes de afaceri. Cu 30,2% din totalul înnoptărilor, Bayern reprezintă landul federal cel mai vizitat de turiștii români. Per total, 93% din călătoriile turiștilor români în Germania sunt sejururi mai lungi (peste patru zile). În medie, au cheltuit pentru o călătorie 658 Euro. Volumul cifrei de afaceri total a călătoriilor în Germania a turiștilor din România se ridică pentru anul 2012 la peste 300 milioane de euro.\r\n“Germania este și va rămâne în continuare una dintre cele mai îndrăgite destinații de vacanță atât la nivel mondial, cât și în preferințele românilor. Poziția este întărită în fiecare an. Dinamica se datorează, în primul rând, calității și diversității produselor turistice pe care le are de oferit Germania, dar și raportului preț-calitate excepțional. România este pe acest trend crescător, iar prin colaborarea pe care o avem cu partenerii noștri locali, suntem convinși că Germania va deveni o destinație de vacanță și mai căutată de de români” - a declarat Cristian Sallai.\r\n\r\n38 de comori culturale și naturale\r\n\r\nGermania se numără printre cele mai îndrăgite destinații turistice de vacanță ale Europei. Ea ocupa în 2012, conform IPK International, locul întâi în topul destinațiilor turistice pentru cultură ale europenilor. Dintre toate cele 50 de țări de la nivel mondial evaluate de Anholt-GFK Roper Netion Brands Index, Germania se află pe locul al cincilea în ceea ce privește cererea după domeniul ʺCulturăʺ. Printre multitudinea de comori culturale se numără și cele 38 de monumente naturale și culturale recunoscute de UNESCO. Sub motto-ul ʺPatrimoniul mondial UNESCO – turism durabil orientat spre cultură și naturăʺ, Organizația Germană pentru Turism (DZT) le dedică în Germania în anul 2014 siturilor patrimoniului mondial UNESCO. ʺSigla UNESCO nu este doar de o importanță deosebită pentru noi. Ea reprezintă și o marcă de calitate importantă în turismul internațional. Împreună cu partenerii strategici, vom întreprinde măsuri eficiente de marketing pentru a promova turismul cultural în Germaniaʺ explică Petra Hedorfer.\r\nDin cele 981 situri ale patrimoniului mondial recunoscute de UNESCO, peste jumătate se află în Europa – dintre care 38 în Germania.\r\n\r\nDatorită acestui fapt, Germania, alături de Franța, se află pe locul trei în Europa. Siturile protejate de UNESCO din Germania au deja o tradiție foarte veche: în anul 1978 a fost preluat în lista UNESCO primul monument cultural al Germaniei - Domul din Aachen. Al 38-lea și cel mai tânăr sit al patrimoniului mondial în Germania a fost numit în această vară parcul muntos Wilhemshöhe din Kassel. În clasamentul internațional a 140 de națiuni, Destinația de vacanță Germania a fost evaluată de către Travel & Tourism Competitiveness Report a World Economic Forum 2013 cu 6,3 puncte din șapte puncte posibile pentru resursele sale culturale.\r\n\r\nConform monitorului de calitate, 41 procente din oaspeții străini s-au hotărât pentru Germania ca destinație de vacanță datorită atracțiilor turistice. Majoritatea turiștilor dornici de cultură vin din SUA (22 procente) și Marea Britanie (17 procente). Pentru 34% din turiștii interesați de cultură, titlul ʺPatrimoniul mondial UNESCOʺ este suficient pentru a-și începe călătoria. În cadrul anului tematic DZT aduce siturile patrimoniului mondial UNESCO german, în centrul atenției activităților internaționale de marketing și distribuție.\r\n\r\nÎn colaborare cu UNESCO-Welterbestätten Deutschland e.V., au fost pregătite 8 trasee turistice, de-a lungul cărora, turiștii străini pot trăi experiențe inedite. Traseele diferite pornesc de la nord spre sud și fac legătura între diferitele situri ale patrimoniului mondial UNESCO precum și cu atracții turistice internaționale.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','GERMANIA - Topuri, Zidul Berlinului și UNESCO - MAPAMOND nr. 117-118','','inherit','open','open','','2696-revision-v1','','','2014-03-04 01:07:27','2014-03-03 23:07:27','',2696,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2014/03/04/2696-revision-6/',0,'revision','',0),(2759,1,'2014-03-13 01:13:22','2014-03-12 23:13:22','','Mariana Suciu DG Romexpo','','inherit','open','open','','mariana-suciu-dg-romexpo','','','2014-03-13 01:13:22','2014-03-12 23:13:22','',2758,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Mariana-Suciu-DG-Romexpo.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2760,1,'2014-03-13 01:13:47','2014-03-12 23:13:47','','TTR Conferinta martie 2014','','inherit','open','open','','ttr-conferinta-martie-2014','','','2014-03-13 01:13:47','2014-03-12 23:13:47','',2758,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/TTR-Conferinta-martie-2014.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2761,1,'2014-03-13 01:13:05','2014-03-12 23:13:05','Pe 13 martie se deschide Targul de Turism al Romaniei organizat de catre ROMEXPO si partenerii sai traditionali.

Fie ca vor opta pentru destinatii autohtone sau de pe alte continente, cei care vor ajunge la Targul de Turism al Romaniei se pot bucura de pachete personalizate, cu facilitati incluse pentru familii, tineri sau pensionari. Cum bugetul mediu al unei familii pentru vacanta din vara acestui an se situeaza in jurul sumei de 1.500 de euro, conform reprezentantilor agentiilor de turism, destinatiile preferate vor ramane in continuare Grecia, Turcia, Spania si Bulgaria, insa nici litoralul romanesc sau statiunile balneoclimaterice autohtone nu vor lipsi din alegerile turistilor. Pentru cei care isi doresc sa aiba parte de aventuri, tari precum China, India, Maroc sau Malaezia ii asteapta cu peisaje si trasee de neuitat. Mai mult decat atat, la Targul de Turism al Romaniei vor fi lansate campanii de promovare in premiera: Mamaia Style – replica autohtona a Festivalului de la Rio, promovata de primarul Constantei, Radu Mazare va debuta joi, 13 martie, la ROMEXPO. Vesti bune vin din partea operatorilor din turism in ceea ce priveste preferintele turistilor romani. Astfel, in cadrul conferintei de presa ce a precedat organizarea Targului de Turism al Romaniei, reprezentantii agentiilor de turism au declarant ca in ultima perioada litoralul autohton a castigat lupta cu cel bulgaresc prin prisma posibilitatilor de distractie, cazare si evenimente oferite de statiuni cu renume precum Mamaia. In ceea ce priveste costurile pentru petrecerea unei zile in statiunile de pe litoralul romanesc, acestea variaza intre 100 si 300 de lei, in functie de prestigiul statiunii. Tot in cadrul conferintei de presa a fost evidentiat succesul programelor Early Booking - 20% dintre acestea (lansate la editia din toamna anului 2013 a Targului de Turism al Romaniei) fiind deja vandute, noi achizitii prefigurandu-se cu ocazia evenimentului ce sta sa inceapa.\n\nTargul de Turism al Romaniei va reuni in Pavilioanele C1, C2, C3, C4, C5 si C6 oferte turistice din toata lumea, la preturi foarte atractive!

\r\n“Este al treilea campionat european de snooker organizat în România, precedentele având loc în 2006, la Constanţa, respectiv în 2010, în Bucureşti. De data aceasta vorbim de o premieră, fiind două campionate în acelaşi timp: juniori, respectiv seniori echipe. Este o dovadă de potenţialitate şi indică o încredere pe care ne-o acordă asociaţia europeană de profil. Rezultatele noastre, obţinute în special începând cu 2007, anul înfiinţării Federaţiei Române de Snooker, alături de evaluările la care am fost supuşi de către organizaţia europeană, denotă faptul că suntem validaţi din punct de vedere al potenţialului la standardele europene de a organiza un astfel de eveniment.

Această organizaţie a reuşit să deschidă şi o Academie de Snooker în Bucureşti, ceea ce este un lucru excepţional. România găzduieşte în premieră un campionat european dedicat juniorilor, categorie care se dezvoltă în ţara voastră. Zona estică atrage din ce în ce mai mulţi turişti, atât datorită pozionării, cât şi a dezvoltării economice.

El este un sport apărut în urmă cu circa 150 de ani în actuala formă, foarte popular în special în țările vorbitoare de limba engleză (Regatul Unit, Irlanda, Canada, Australia, India și Africa de Sud), un interes crescând manifestându-se și în Estul și Sud-estul Asiei, respectiv în Europa Centrală şi de Est. Traveller Magazin este unul dintre PARTENERII MEDIA ai evenimentului.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU\r\n\n\nCampionatul de Juniori are loc între 18 şi 23 martie, iar cel de Seniori (bărbaţi, femei şi master) între 23 şi 29 martie. Ambele categorii vor reuni peste 250 de participanţi din peste 20 de ţări (Marea Britanie, Irlanda, Franţa, Belgia, Olanda, Serbia, Bulgaria, Ucraina, Rusia, Belarus etc.). Alături de aceştia, în Bucureşti se vor afla şi 26 de arbitri internaţionali de snooker. De asemenea, participanţii juniori vor fi însoţiţi de părinţi sau rude. Pe 23 martie, Innovation Travel va organiza o Gală Naţională dedicată Snooker-ului, la care vor fi invitate, pe lângă participanţi şi organizatori, personalităţi din lumea culturii, sportului, turismului, politicii şi reprezentanţi ai mass-media. Campionatul va fi deschis publicului. Pe toată durata lui intrarea va fi liberă, fiind estimaţi minim 500 vizitatori/zi. Va fi asigurată transmisie live 24h/24 în toată Europa pe site-ul oficial al Federaţiei Europene de Snooker -www.ebsa.tv\n\n“Este al treilea campionat european de snooker organizat în România, precedentele având loc în 2006, la Constanţa, respectiv în 2010, în Bucureşti. De data aceasta vorbim de o premieră, fiind două campionate în acelaşi timp: juniori, respectiv seniori echipe. Este o dovadă de potenţialitate şi indică o încredere pe care ne-o acordă asociaţia europeană de profil. Rezultatele noastre, obţinute în special începând cu 2007, anul înfiinţării Federaţiei Române de Snooker, alături de evaluările la care am fost supuşi de către organizaţia europeană, denotă faptul că suntem validaţi din punct de vedere al potenţialului la standardele europene de a organiza un astfel de eveniment. Hotelul Caro reprezintă, în opinia mea, un loc în rezonanţă cu principiul snooker-ului, care este un joc elitist, nu de masă” - a precizat Francisc Tobă, preşedintele Federaţiei Române de Snooker.\n\n \n\nAsociaţia Europeană de Biliard şi Snooker (EBSA) a fost înfiinţată în urmă cu peste 30 de ani, iar în prezent are 42 de ţări europene membre. Începând cu 1988, EBSA organizează primul turneu european de snooker dedicat amatorilor. “Snooker-ul a început să se dezvolte mult în România, mai ales în ultimii 7 ani, de când există asociaţia de profil. Această organizaţie a reuşit să deschidă şi o Academie de Snooker în Bucureşti, ceea ce este un lucru excepţional. România găzduieşte în premieră un campionat european dedicat juniorilor, categorie care se dezvoltă în ţara voastră. Zona estică atrage din ce în ce mai mulţi turişti, atât datorită pozionării, cât şi a dezvoltării economice. De asemenea, Bucureştiul este un oraş care trezeşte din ce în ce mai mult interesul vizitatorilor” - , a declarat Maxime Cassis, preşedintele Asociaţiei Europene de Biliard şi Snooker (EBSA).\n\nSnooker-ul îşi are originea în biliardul englezesc, apărut în urmă cu peste 300 de ani.

Rochia doamnei din tablou este decorată cu 3.261 dolari de argint \"Morgan\" turnați la monetăria din Carson City. Farmecul orașului Virginia City este cu siguranță dat de locuitorii săi, mari iubitori ai istoriei locului, ce se îmbracă în haine de epocă și ghidează vizitatorii conducându-i la spectacole tradiționale sau la muzee.\n\nCARSON CITY - o invitație spre Tahoe\nDe la Virginia City îți trebui cam o oră până la Carson City, capitala statului. Oraș mic și liniștit în comparație cu agitatul Las Vegas, Carson City adăpostește Capitoliul și muzeul statului Nevada. Aici puteți afla întreaga istorie a zonei și cum aceasta s-a dezvoltat datorită minieritului și legalizării unor activități ce în restul SUA erau interzise. Instituția este găzduită de fosta clădire a monetăriei. Din Carson City ne-am îndreptat pe un drum înconjurat de pajiști verzi către Genoa. Un oraș de buzunar în care principala atracție este cel mai vechi Saloon din Nevada - Genoa Bar and Saloon. Construit la 1851 în stil victorian târziu de către mormoni Genoa a fost un punct important de oprire a călătorilor pe California Trail. De la Genoa plecăm în documentarea noastre spre Lacul Tahoe, cu celebra stațiune North Lake Tahoe iubită de locuitorii Californiei și Nevadei. Și aceasta este jumătate în California și jumătate în Nevada, și au aceleași tipare economice amintite înainte. Partea din California seamănă cu o fată mare, în comparație cu cea din Nevada care ar fi un deșert al pierzaniei de bani, al rătăcirii după femei și băutură. Firește, poveștile și legendele lucrează foarte bine pentru industria turistică de azi. Din cochetul port de pe malul lacului Tahoe, se pleacă în mici croaziere cu vapoare decupate parcă din poveștile lui Mark Twain - celebrele Nave cu Zbaturi. Plimbarea se face la apusul soarelui iar la bord este oferită și cina. Lacul Tahoe este cel mai mare lac alpin din America de Nord. El este situat la altitudinea de 1.899,5 de metri, deasupra nivelului mării și are o adâncimea medie de 300 de metri, cea maximă atingând 501 de metri. Arealul Lacului Tahoe este una dintre cele mai vizitate regiunii datorită numărului mare de resorturi hoteliere și domenii schiabile, dar și pentru practicarea sporturilor acvatice. Legenda spune că lacul ar ascunde un monstru marin numit Tessie, care ar ieși din când în când la suprafață, un fel de... frate sau văr al lui Loch Ness din Scoția. Povestea datează și a fost transmisă din secolul al XIX-lea, de pe vremea în care zona era populată de triburile indigene Washoe și Paiute.\n\nMĂDĂLINA NICOLESCU','Casatorii, fast food si deserturi muzicale, MAPAMOND nr. 119','','inherit','open','open','','2770-revision','','','2014-04-11 08:57:14','2014-04-11 06:57:14','',2770,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2014/04/11/2770-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2780,1,'2014-04-11 08:59:24','2014-04-11 06:59:24',' ','','','publish','open','closed','','2780','','','2017-04-02 22:25:07','2017-04-02 20:25:07','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2780',29,'nav_menu_item','',0),(2782,1,'2014-04-11 09:07:32','2014-04-11 07:07:32','VINVEST- Ediția a IX-a\r\n– DEGUSTAŢI, TESTAŢI ŞI VA BUCURAŢI\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Vinvest-Florin-Voloaca-oenolog.jpg\" "\\"Vinvest")

Se vor oferi Marea Medalie de Aur la Vin Alb și Roșu, Marea Medalie de Aur la Vin de Vinotecă, Marea Medalie de Aur la Băuturi Alcoolice și vor fi nominalizați cei mai buni oenologi – ne-a precizat Lucia Pîrvu, liderul firmei organizatoare.\r\n\r\nDupă cum ne-au mai informat organizatorii agenda manifestării este mult mai bogată față de anul trecut. Alături de manifestări de profil care sunt concentrate în jurul prezentării, testării și evaluării vinurilor, vor avea loc și alte discursuri... oenologice. Clubul Degustătorilor de Vin Neautorizați (CDViN a fost inființat în 2012 de de organizația Vestik și are ca obiect promovarea vinului românesc), susține aceste activități prin trei boguri și două site-uri.

Nu a trecut mult timp și, conform promisiunilor ministrului Maria Grapini, în luna ianuarie a avut loc, la hotelul Hilton din București, a doua Gală a Ambasadorilor Turismului Românesc. Paşaportul onorific de ambasador al turismului a fost înmânat de către Maria Grapini dar și de către Titus Corlățean, ministrul român de externe, artiștilor Maia Morgenstern, Dan Puric,Oana Pelea, Ovidiu Lipan „Ţăndărică” și Nicolae Voiculeţ, oamenilor de cultură Dinu Săraru, Constantin Chiriac,”mărcilor sportive” Nadia Comăneci, Helmuth Duckadam, Mariana Bitang și Octavian Bellu și cosmonautului Dumitru Prunariu.\r\n

\r\n\r\nSingurul balet profesionist pe gheaţă, din lume - Ansamblul de Stat al Baletului pe Gheaţă din Sankt Petersburg - a susținut în ianuarie, la Sala Palatului din București, în fața a 4.000 de spectatori, o reprezentație feerică cu Lacul Lebedelor. Punerea în scenă poartă semnătura coregrafului Konstantin Rassadin. artist emerit al Rusiei. Baletul a adus pentru a patra oară în faţa publicului românesc un spectacol clasic de balet fascinant. Pentru acest show, scena Sălii Palatului a fost acoperită cu 2.500 de kilograme de gheaţă naturală. Baletul (fost Ansamblu de Stat al Baletului pe Gheaţă din Leningrad) a fost fondat în 1967 de către remarcabilul coregraf Konstantin Boyarsky, cel care a realizat pentru prima oară fuziunea dintre baletul clasic şi patinajul artistic.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/ev-Lacul-lebedelor-Christian-Raetscher.jpg\" "\\"ev")
\r\nÎncepând din 1995, Baletul din Sankt Petersburg a evoluat în fața publicului cu fascinantele montări transpuse pe geaţă ca „Frumoasa din pădurea adormită”, „Lacul lebedelor” şi „Spărgătorul de nuci” de Piotr Ilici Ceaikovski, precum şi „Cenuşăreasa” de Serghei Prokofiev. El au susținut peste 7.000 de reprezentaţii în SUA, Canada, Olanda, Germania, China, Spania, Coreea, Taiwan, Grecia, Portugalia, Irlanda, Serbia, Slovenia, Turcia, Elveţia, Columbia, Argentina - ne-a precizat Christian Raetscher, directorul general al Christian Raetscher Veranstaltungsmanagement, companie care a manageriat turneul companiei la București. Membrii Ansamblului din Sankt Petersburg au avut în program și vizitarea a două obiective turistice - Hotelul de gheață de la Lacul Bâlea și Palatul Brukenthal din Avrig, supranumit „Edenul din Transilvania”. Datorită condițiilor nefavorabile proiectul a fost amânat. Artiștii ruși s-au familiarizat însă cu farmecul Centrului Istoric al Bucureștiului, a cărui atmosferă au apreciat-o în mod deosebit.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU\r\n\r\nVICTORIA BERBECAR - ”Culorile Botizei n-au vârstă!”\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Berbecaru-001.jpg\" "\\"Berbecaru")
\r\n\r\nMuzeul Național de Artă Contemporană (MNAC) din București a foSt martorul unei mini-expoziții de suflet coborâtă din Maramureșul Istoric, împreună cu preoteasa și artista populară Victoria Berbecaru. Deși despre vârstă nu se vorbește când vine vorba de cea a unei femei, ei bine, nu e niciun secret marea artizană a împlinit 70 de ani. Noi ne cunoaștem de mai bine de 30. Dar asta are mai puțină importanță în fața creațiilor sale, covoare, cergi, tapiserii, create din culori obținute numai din extrase naturale din plante. Talentul împletit cu acestea a condus spre creații artistice unicat. Nu întîmplător Victoria Berbecar mai este numită o ”artistă a neuitării”, și lucru acesta se poate vedea în colecțiile private din țară și străinătate. Dar și în cartea dedicată vieții ei, lansată cu prilejul vernisajului. Credem că Victoria Berbecar merită o amplă expoziție la Muzeul Țăranului Român sau cel al Satului, care să vorbească vizitatorilor de-a lungul mai multor săptămâni. Ar fi onorant pentru cele două instituții.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU \r\n\r\nCIOCĂNEȘTI E CEL MAI FRUMOS SAT CULTURAL DIN ȚARA NOASTRĂ\r\n\r\nCel puțin în varianta Asociației cele mai frumoase sate din România. În urma evaluării și jurizării finale a candidaturilor, ce a avut loc la sediul Ambasadei Franței la București, comuna Ciocănești (județul Suceava) a obținut titlul Satul cultural al României 2014. În clasamentul final ea este urmată de comunele: Poiana Stampei (județul Suceava), Cumpăna (județul Constanța), Izvoarele (județul Prahova), respectiv Bezdead (județul Dâmbovița).\r\nAcest program se derulează sub patronajul Ambasadei Franței în România, condusă de Excelența Sa domnul Philippe Gustin, al Ministerului pentru IMM –uri, afaceri și turism și al Autorității Naționale pentru Turism.\r\n\r\nMUZEUL NAȚIONAL BRUKENTHAL DIN SIBIU\r\n... este primul muzeu deschis în Europa Centrală şi de Est, în secolul al XVIII–lea. În anul 2016 instituţia va marca o nouă premieră în România, oferind vizitatorilor posibilitatea de a se ghida printre colecţii cu ajutorul unei aplicaţii speciale pentru telefoanele mobile inteligente, numită i-locate. Unii specialişti în management cultural au botezat aplicaţia ”GPS-ul de artă”. I-locate va fi produsul unui proiect european gândit de 24 de parteneri din nouă ţări, finanţat de Comisia Europeană cu 4,7 milioane de euro. Noua aplicaţie va permite vizitatorilor muzeului sibian să îşi configureze traseele în funcţie de preferinţele artistice şi, de asemenea, va oferi pe ecranul telefoanelor mobile informaţii despre obiectele de artă expuse. Ingenioasa aplicaţie nu va înlocui ghidajele audio sau cele realizate de angajaţii muzeului, ea va fi însă un instrument potrivit vizitatorului contemporan, obişnuit cu tehnologia de ultimă oră.\r\n\r\nSOFIA VICOVEANCA ARE MUZEU.\r\n\r\nUn model de urmat. Solista de muzică populară Sofia Vicoveanca a deschis un muzeu în care expune obiecte vestimentare tradiționale românești. Muzeul se află în casa din satul în care artista și-a petrecut copilăria - Vicovu de Jos, din județul Suceava. Sofia Vicoveanca (72 de ani) deține straie din zona Bucovinei pe care le-a conservat pentru a le expune: peste 80 de catrințe, ii, opinici, basmale și costume populare. Multe dintre obiecte au o vechime de peste o sută de ani și sunt unicat.\r\n\r\nPESTE 1000 DE INVITAȚI\r\n\r\n... personalități academice, studenţi şi absolvenţi români și membri ligii Studenților Români din Străinătate (LSRS) din peste 50 de ţări au marcat la Gala aniversară de la Palatul Parlamentului, 5 ani de activitate. „Putem spune cu mândrie că Liga s-a impus prin rezultate incontestabile. Fiecare dintre voi – premianții, finaliștii, voluntari, susținători și parteneri ai Ligii și cei peste 8200 de membri LSRS – sunteți tot atâtea motive de speranță pentru viitorul României” - declara Dan Nechita, Președintele Ligii Studenților Români din Străinătate.\r\nZece premii au recompensat rezultatele excepționale ale unor studenți români. Iată câțiva dintre acestea: Studentul Anului din Europa, nivel universitar – Diana Danciu (Universitatea Cambridge, Marea Britanie); Studentul Anului din America de Nord, nivel universitar – Luca Victor Ilieșiu (Universitatea Princeton, SUA); Studentul Anului de pe Alte Continente – Marius Wamsiedel (Universitatea Hong Kong, China); Studentul Anului în România – Sorina Lupu (Universitatea Politehnica din București); Marele Premiu: Studentul Român al Anului din Străinătate – Sonia Cristina Coman (Universitatea Columbia, SUA) cu specializare în artă franceză etc.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nMILIOANE DE PRIETENI PENTRU URȘI\r\n\r\nAsociația „Milioane de prieteni” Brașov a inaugurat în cadrul rezervației de urși de la Zărnești, cel mai mare țarc destinat urșilor din rezervație. El include și un observator subteran destinat vizitatorilor care vor să vadă urșii de la distanță mică chiar din interiorul habitatului lor natural. Țarcul, care este al treilea din rezervație, are 9 hectare de teren împădurit. Rezervația, care se întinde pe o suprafață de peste 60 de hectare, adăpostește în prezent 65 de urși proveniți din captivitate, care erau ținuți în condiții improprii la restaurante, benzinării, hoteluri sau chiar mănăstiri. Investiția totală de circa 280.000 de euro a fost susținută în întregime de World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA), din Marea Britanie.','Vinvest- Ediția a IX-a, EVENIMENTE nr. 119','','publish','open','open','','vinvest-editia-a-ix-a-evenimente-nr-119','','','2014-04-11 09:07:32','2014-04-11 07:07:32','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2782',0,'post','',0),(2783,1,'2014-04-11 09:05:24','2014-04-11 07:05:24','','Vinvest Florin Voloaca oenolog','','inherit','open','open','','vinvest-florin-voloaca-oenolog','','','2014-04-11 09:05:24','2014-04-11 07:05:24','',2782,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Vinvest-Florin-Voloaca-oenolog.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2784,1,'2014-04-11 09:06:07','2014-04-11 07:06:07','','Gala turism 013','','inherit','open','open','','gala-turism-013','','','2014-04-11 09:06:07','2014-04-11 07:06:07','',2782,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Gala-turism-013.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2785,1,'2014-04-11 09:06:25','2014-04-11 07:06:25','','Gala turism 016','','inherit','open','open','','gala-turism-016','','','2014-04-11 09:06:25','2014-04-11 07:06:25','',2782,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Gala-turism-016.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2786,1,'2014-04-11 09:06:49','2014-04-11 07:06:49','','ev lacul lebedelor 2','','inherit','open','open','','ev-lacul-lebedelor-2','','','2014-04-11 09:06:49','2014-04-11 07:06:49','',2782,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/ev-lacul-lebedelor-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2787,1,'2014-04-11 09:07:04','2014-04-11 07:07:04','','ev Lacul lebedelor Christian Raetscher','','inherit','open','open','','ev-lacul-lebedelor-christian-raetscher','','','2014-04-11 09:07:04','2014-04-11 07:07:04','',2782,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/ev-Lacul-lebedelor-Christian-Raetscher.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2788,1,'2014-04-11 09:07:22','2014-04-11 07:07:22','','Berbecaru 001','','inherit','open','open','','berbecaru-001','','','2014-04-11 09:07:22','2014-04-11 07:07:22','',2782,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Berbecaru-001.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2789,1,'2014-04-11 09:06:59','2014-04-11 07:06:59','VINVEST- Ediția a IX-a\n– DEGUSTAŢI, TESTAŢI ŞI VA BUCURAŢI\n \n\nÎn perioada 9-10 aprilie 2014 va avea loc cea de-a IX –a ediție a Concursului Național de Vinuri și Băuturi Alcoolice la Centrul Regional de Afaceri Timișoara.

Repertoriul său conține piese jazz, blues, pop făcute celebre de interpreți ca: Norah Jones, Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald etc. De asemenea la sediul Filarmonicii Banatul din Timișoara Dan Puric va vorbi despre ”Sufletul românesc” în atmosfera creată de Orchestra Simfonică și Corul Ion Românu ale Filarmonicii Banatul. Evenimentul are un caracter caritabil, fondurile obținute urmând să fie donate Clinicii Nera, prima clinică de recuperare oncologică.\n\nAlte amanunte aflaţi pe www.vinvest.ro, www.facebook.com/salonul.vinvest. Traveller Magazin este unul dintre Partenerii Media ai manifestării.\n\nMARA ANTON\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAmbasadorilor Turismului Românesc - a II-a rundă\nLa sfârșitul anului trecut Ministerul Turismului și Autoritatea Națională pentru Turism, în parteneriat cu Ministerul Afacerilor Externe au desemnat primii ”Ambasadori” care au menirea de a promova pe plan internațional, în modalități proprii, atracțiile turistice românești. Nu a trecut mult timp și, conform promisiunilor ministrului Maria Grapini, în luna ianuarie a avut loc, la hotelul Hilton din București, a doua Gală a Ambasadorilor Turismului Românesc. Paşaportul onorific de ambasador al turismului a fost înmânat de către Maria Grapini dar și de către Titus Corlățean, ministrul român de externe, artiștilor Maia Morgenstern, Dan Puric,Oana Pelea, Ovidiu Lipan „Ţăndărică” și Nicolae Voiculeţ, oamenilor de cultură Dinu Săraru, Constantin Chiriac,”mărcilor sportive” Nadia Comăneci, Helmuth Duckadam, Mariana Bitang și Octavian Bellu și cosmonautului Dumitru Prunariu.\n
\nMinistrul Titus Corlăţean a declarat în timpul Galei că instituția pe care o reprezintă susține acest demers: „ întrucât reprezintă un proiect inteligent care îşi propune să pună în lumină valorile României, şi prin aceasta România însăşi. Ne-am alăturat proiectului deoarece acesta exprimă respect faţă de cei care au stârnit şi stârnesc admiraţie faţă de ţara noastră în întreaga lume”.\n\n\nSankt Petersburg și-a adus Lebedele la București\n \n\nSingurul balet profesionist pe gheaţă, din lume - Ansamblul de Stat al Baletului pe Gheaţă din Sankt Petersburg - a susținut în ianuarie, la Sala Palatului din București, în fața a 4.000 de spectatori, o reprezentație feerică cu Lacul Lebedelor. Punerea în scenă poartă semnătura coregrafului Konstantin Rassadin. artist emerit al Rusiei. Baletul a adus pentru a patra oară în faţa publicului românesc un spectacol clasic de balet fascinant. Pentru acest show, scena Sălii Palatului a fost acoperită cu 2.500 de kilograme de gheaţă naturală. Baletul (fost Ansamblu de Stat al Baletului pe Gheaţă din Leningrad) a fost fondat în 1967 de către remarcabilul coregraf Konstantin Boyarsky, cel care a realizat pentru prima oară fuziunea dintre baletul clasic şi patinajul artistic.\nÎncepând din 1995, Baletul din Sankt Petersburg a evoluat în fața publicului cu fascinantele montări transpuse pe geaţă ca „Frumoasa din pădurea adormită”, „Lacul lebedelor” şi „Spărgătorul de nuci” de Piotr Ilici Ceaikovski, precum şi „Cenuşăreasa” de Serghei Prokofiev. El au susținut peste 7.000 de reprezentaţii în SUA, Canada, Olanda, Germania, China, Spania, Coreea, Taiwan, Grecia, Portugalia, Irlanda, Serbia, Slovenia, Turcia, Elveţia, Columbia, Argentina - ne-a precizat Christian Raetscher, directorul general al Christian Raetscher Veranstaltungsmanagement, companie care a manageriat turneul companiei la București. Membrii Ansamblului din Sankt Petersburg au avut în program și vizitarea a două obiective turistice - Hotelul de gheață de la Lacul Bâlea și Palatul Brukenthal din Avrig, supranumit „Edenul din Transilvania”. Datorită condițiilor nefavorabile proiectul a fost amânat. Artiștii ruși s-au familiarizat însă cu farmecul Centrului Istoric al Bucureștiului, a cărui atmosferă au apreciat-o în mod deosebit.\n\nALEX BARBU\n\nVICTORIA BERBECAR - ”Culorile Botizei n-au vârstă!”\n\nMuzeul Național de Artă Contemporană (MNAC) din București a foSt martorul unei mini-expoziții de suflet coborâtă din Maramureșul Istoric, împreună cu preoteasa și artista populară Victoria Berbecaru. Deși despre vârstă nu se vorbește când vine vorba de cea a unei femei, ei bine, nu e niciun secret marea artizană a împlinit 70 de ani. Noi ne cunoaștem de mai bine de 30. Dar asta are mai puțină importanță în fața creațiilor sale, covoare, cergi, tapiserii, create din culori obținute numai din extrase naturale din plante. Talentul împletit cu acestea a condus spre creații artistice unicat. Nu întîmplător Victoria Berbecar mai este numită o ”artistă a neuitării”, și lucru acesta se poate vedea în colecțiile private din țară și străinătate. Dar și în cartea dedicată vieții ei, lansată cu prilejul vernisajului. Credem că Victoria Berbecar merită o amplă expoziție la Muzeul Țăranului Român sau cel al Satului, care să vorbească vizitatorilor de-a lungul mai multor săptămâni. Ar fi onorant pentru cele două instituții.\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU \n\nCIOCĂNEȘTI E CEL MAI FRUMOS SAT CULTURAL DIN ȚARA NOASTRĂ\n\nCel puțin în varianta Asociației cele mai frumoase sate din România. În urma evaluării și jurizării finale a candidaturilor, ce a avut loc la sediul Ambasadei Franței la București, comuna Ciocănești (județul Suceava) a obținut titlul Satul cultural al României 2014. În clasamentul final ea este urmată de comunele: Poiana Stampei (județul Suceava), Cumpăna (județul Constanța), Izvoarele (județul Prahova), respectiv Bezdead (județul Dâmbovița).\nAcest program se derulează sub patronajul Ambasadei Franței în România, condusă de Excelența Sa domnul Philippe Gustin, al Ministerului pentru IMM –uri, afaceri și turism și al Autorității Naționale pentru Turism.\n\nMUZEUL NAȚIONAL BRUKENTHAL DIN SIBIU\n... este primul muzeu deschis în Europa Centrală şi de Est, în secolul al XVIII–lea. În anul 2016 instituţia va marca o nouă premieră în România, oferind vizitatorilor posibilitatea de a se ghida printre colecţii cu ajutorul unei aplicaţii speciale pentru telefoanele mobile inteligente, numită i-locate. Unii specialişti în management cultural au botezat aplicaţia ”GPS-ul de artă”. I-locate va fi produsul unui proiect european gândit de 24 de parteneri din nouă ţări, finanţat de Comisia Europeană cu 4,7 milioane de euro. Noua aplicaţie va permite vizitatorilor muzeului sibian să îşi configureze traseele în funcţie de preferinţele artistice şi, de asemenea, va oferi pe ecranul telefoanelor mobile informaţii despre obiectele de artă expuse. Ingenioasa aplicaţie nu va înlocui ghidajele audio sau cele realizate de angajaţii muzeului, ea va fi însă un instrument potrivit vizitatorului contemporan, obişnuit cu tehnologia de ultimă oră.\n\nSOFIA VICOVEANCA ARE MUZEU.\n\nUn model de urmat. Solista de muzică populară Sofia Vicoveanca a deschis un muzeu în care expune obiecte vestimentare tradiționale românești. Muzeul se află în casa din satul în care artista și-a petrecut copilăria - Vicovu de Jos, din județul Suceava. Sofia Vicoveanca (72 de ani) deține straie din zona Bucovinei pe care le-a conservat pentru a le expune: peste 80 de catrințe, ii, opinici, basmale și costume populare. Multe dintre obiecte au o vechime de peste o sută de ani și sunt unicat.\n\nPESTE 1000 DE INVITAȚI\n\n... personalități academice, studenţi şi absolvenţi români și membri ligii Studenților Români din Străinătate (LSRS) din peste 50 de ţări au marcat la Gala aniversară de la Palatul Parlamentului, 5 ani de activitate. „Putem spune cu mândrie că Liga s-a impus prin rezultate incontestabile. Fiecare dintre voi – premianții, finaliștii, voluntari, susținători și parteneri ai Ligii și cei peste 8200 de membri LSRS – sunteți tot atâtea motive de speranță pentru viitorul României” - declara Dan Nechita, Președintele Ligii Studenților Români din Străinătate.\nZece premii au recompensat rezultatele excepționale ale unor studenți români. Iată câțiva dintre acestea: Studentul Anului din Europa, nivel universitar – Diana Danciu (Universitatea Cambridge, Marea Britanie); Studentul Anului din America de Nord, nivel universitar – Luca Victor Ilieșiu (Universitatea Princeton, SUA); Studentul Anului de pe Alte Continente – Marius Wamsiedel (Universitatea Hong Kong, China); Studentul Anului în România – Sorina Lupu (Universitatea Politehnica din București); Marele Premiu: Studentul Român al Anului din Străinătate – Sonia Cristina Coman (Universitatea Columbia, SUA) cu specializare în artă franceză etc.\n\n \n\nMILIOANE DE PRIETENI PENTRU URȘI\n\nAsociația „Milioane de prieteni” Brașov a inaugurat în cadrul rezervației de urși de la Zărnești, cel mai mare țarc destinat urșilor din rezervație. El include și un observator subteran destinat vizitatorilor care vor să vadă urșii de la distanță mică chiar din interiorul habitatului lor natural. Țarcul, care este al treilea din rezervație, are 9 hectare de teren împădurit. Rezervația, care se întinde pe o suprafață de peste 60 de hectare, adăpostește în prezent 65 de urși proveniți din captivitate, care erau ținuți în condiții improprii la restaurante, benzinării, hoteluri sau chiar mănăstiri. Investiția totală de circa 280.000 de euro a fost susținută în întregime de World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA), din Marea Britanie.','Vinvest- Ediția a IX-a, EVENIMENTE nr. 119','','inherit','open','open','','2782-revision','','','2014-04-11 09:06:59','2014-04-11 07:06:59','',2782,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2014/04/11/2782-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2790,1,'2014-04-11 09:15:23','2014-04-11 07:15:23','E posibil ca un hotel de 1 stea să ajungă după numai doi ani de investiții la un standard de 3 chiar și chiar 4 stele ?

Cel puțin așa reiese din ceea ce a declarat Bogdan Hossu la inaugurare: ”În aprilie 2010, compania noastră turistică, Alfa Hotels a preluat în administrare o parte din patrimoniul SIND România, anume hotelurile Venus din Slănic Moldova, Parâng din Olănești, Lebăda din Amara, respectiv hotelul în care ne aflăm, precum și o parte din spațiile de cazare, alimentație publică și tratament din Vatra Dornei. Cu această nouă organizare, s-au început acțiuni de schimbări pe termen scurt, mediu și lung, acțiuni prin care hotelurile sunt modernizate, aduse la stndardele zilelor noastre pentru a întruni exigențele de calitate ale beneficiarilor de servicii turistice și balneo. România este singura țară din Europa Centrală și de Est în care nu s-a reglementat juridic transferul patrimoniului sindical către confederațiile sindicale. Legea nr.10/2001 prevede că situația legală a patrimoniului sindical va fi stabilită printr-o lege specială, iar legea specială, elaborată în 2008 cu consultarea confederațiilor sindicale, stă azi blocată în Parlament. Cu toate acestea ”Cartel ALFA”, din respnsabilitate și din dorința de a oferi servicii membrilor de sindicat dar și altor categorii de turiști, investește în reabilitarea patrimoniului preluat în administrarea sa. Astăzi vă prezentăm rezultatul unei investiții în valoare de circa 3 milioane de euro, aproape în întregime asigurați din resurse proprii”. Președintele Bogdan Hossu a mai subliniat că în contextul dat se așteaptă la dezvoltarea infrastructurii de agrement a stațiunii Predeal, la completarea Legii tichetelor de vacanță, care va facilita accesul mai multor români la produsul turistic, respectiv la o ”curățare a pieței concurențiale ce ar trebui să fie patronată de o echitate fiscală”.\r\nPrezentă la deschidere, ministrul turismului Maria Grapini a arătat că este ”nedrept să vorbim despre turismul românesc neselectiv. Suntem probabil țara care își blamează cel mai mult și atracțiile și conlocuitorii ei. Ospitalitatea este o mare oportunitate pentru turism și cu cât vom realiza mai repede acest lucru, vom ști mai clar spre ce ținte economice să ne îndreptăm.”\r\n\r\nSpa, fitness și alte coktailuri \r\nDupă cum se înțelege complexul Carpați, este proprietate a firmei Alfa Hotels, controlată de către confederația sindicală ”Cartel ALFA”. După aproape 3 ani un hotel de 1 stea s-a reinventat. Azi oferă standarde superioare de 3 și 4 stele (la ultimul etaj), pentru un public consumator exigent - ne declara Antonio Blendea, directorul SC Alfa Hotels. Procesul de modernizare a inclus și compartimentarea mansardei pentru realizarea de noi spații de cazare, extinderea și renovarea restaurantului dar și a spațiilor de alimentație publică, amenajarea unui Centru wellness cu piscină încălzită și jacuzzi, saună (uscată cu terapie Therasol și umedă), sală de fitness (excelent dotată pentru turiști individuali, dar la fel de utilă și pentru antrenamentul unor echipe de sportivi) și spații pentru masaj.\r\n\r\nLobby pentru o familie tânără\r\n\r\nHotelul oferă turiștilor 59 de camere duble clasificate la 3 stele și 4 stele. Au fost create și dotate două săli de de conferințe cu o capacitate totală de circa 200 de locuri. Hotelul mai deține un lobby-bar cu 50 de locuri, restaurant cu 250 de locuri, bar de zi cu 60 de locuri și o cramă cu 30 de locuri. Toată proprietatea oferă programe TV prin satelit dar și internet gratuit Wi-Fi. Parcarea este de asemenea gratuită. Dacă privim din altă perspectivă, cea a resurselor umane, voi spune că am creat în stațiunea Predeal, 52 de locuri de muncă, deci o nouă familie cu o vârstă medie de 30 de ani. Observații selective. Nu a fost deloc ușor la acest capitol nici la cel de dotare și modernizare a hotelului. Am fost aproape șocat să constat că exceptând mobilierul și câteva furnituri pe care le-am achiziționat de la producători interni, restul a trebuit să-l comandăm la firme importatoare. Când am căutat profesioniști și meseriași pentru job-urile hotelului am constatat că și aici e o penurie de oameni formați într-un spirit al muncii de calitate. Ne bucurăm însă că am selectat tineri care își dovedesc aptitudinile foarte rapid.\r\n\r\nDe la schi la circuite cu biciclete\r\n\r\nDar dacă turistul modern care a venit în vacanță aici dorește ca fiecare zi să nu semene cu cealaltă ? Amatorii de schi au la dispoziție în perimetrul stațiunii Predeal 8 pârtii cu grade de dificultate diferite, de la Foarte ușor până la cel Dificil. Și dacă nu schiem sau nu este sezon de iarnă? Alina Leonte, șefa departamentul Sales & Marketing al hotelului Carpați ne oferă mai multe variante: Un program combinat de schi și spa, apoi programe active ori sportive în aer liber. Pentru cluburile sportive oferim și posibilitatea unui cantonament, hotelul având un parteneriat cu primăria Predeal, pentru folosirea terenului de fotbal din imediata apropiere. Noi am constatat că s-a produs o deplasare în preferințele noilor turiștilor - anume interesul pentru partea de spa, întreținere, punere în formă este în creștere vizibilă, comparativ cu tratamentele medicale clasice. Este un indiciu că populația activă dorește servicii la un alt nivel de calitate. De asemenea ne așteptăm la creșterea turismului de conferințe, sălile noastre de la parter fiind bine poziționate și echipate cu aparatură modernă. Desigur ele vor fi folosite pentru activități corporate dar și pentru evenimente de familie ori comunități tematice. Suntem pregătiți și pe segmentul de gastronomie. Avem bucătari tineri, motivați, un restaurant reinventat cu un meniu variat, iar vara vom deschide o terasă barbeque. Cât privește programele turistice pot să vă spun că deținem biciclete proprii, cu care realizăm deplasări în natură, am stabilit contacte cu mai multe agenții din Brașov, prin intermediul cărora oferim vizite la Castelul Bran, la Brașov, la cetățile medievale din împrejurimi. ”De asemenea ne-am gândit să organizăm în interiorul hotelului, Zile tematice ce vor include de la Expoziții de artă și parade ale modei, până la cele gastronomice. În așa fel încât să ne construim un public dinamic, doritor de noutăți, așa cum ni-l dorim” - a mai subliniat directorul Antonio Blendea.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nVASILE COSTRUȘ','O mică revoluție la Predeal - ALFA CARPAȚI, INDUSTRIE HOTELIERA nr.119','','publish','open','open','','o-mica-revolutie-la-predeal-alfa-carpati-industrie-hoteliera-nr-119','','','2014-04-11 09:17:02','2014-04-11 07:17:02','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2790',0,'post','',0),(2791,1,'2014-04-11 09:12:54','2014-04-11 07:12:54','','Alfa 029','','inherit','open','open','','alfa-029','','','2014-04-11 09:12:54','2014-04-11 07:12:54','',2790,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Alfa-029.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2792,1,'2014-04-11 09:12:56','2014-04-11 07:12:56','','Alfa 078','','inherit','open','open','','alfa-078','','','2014-04-11 09:12:56','2014-04-11 07:12:56','',2790,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Alfa-078.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2793,1,'2014-04-11 09:12:57','2014-04-11 07:12:57','','Alfa 099','','inherit','open','open','','alfa-099','','','2014-04-11 09:12:57','2014-04-11 07:12:57','',2790,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Alfa-099.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2794,1,'2014-04-11 09:12:58','2014-04-11 07:12:58','','Alfa Antonio Blendea Director','','inherit','open','open','','alfa-antonio-blendea-director','','','2014-04-11 09:12:58','2014-04-11 07:12:58','',2790,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Alfa-Antonio-Blendea-Director.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2795,1,'2014-04-11 09:12:58','2014-04-11 07:12:58','','Alfa ian 2014 033','','inherit','open','open','','alfa-ian-2014-033','','','2014-04-11 09:12:58','2014-04-11 07:12:58','',2790,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Alfa-ian-2014-033.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2796,1,'2014-04-11 09:12:59','2014-04-11 07:12:59','','Alfa ian 2014 076','','inherit','open','open','','alfa-ian-2014-076','','','2014-04-11 09:12:59','2014-04-11 07:12:59','',2790,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Alfa-ian-2014-076.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2797,1,'2014-04-11 09:13:00','2014-04-11 07:13:00','','Alfa ian 2014 096','','inherit','open','open','','alfa-ian-2014-096','','','2014-04-11 09:13:00','2014-04-11 07:13:00','',2790,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Alfa-ian-2014-096.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2798,1,'2014-04-11 09:13:01','2014-04-11 07:13:01','','Alfa ian 2014 106','','inherit','open','open','','alfa-ian-2014-106','','','2014-04-11 09:13:01','2014-04-11 07:13:01','',2790,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Alfa-ian-2014-106.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2799,1,'2014-04-11 09:13:59','2014-04-11 07:13:59','E posibil ca un hotel de 1 stea să ajungă după numai doi ani de investiții la un standard de 3 chiar și chiar 4 stele ?

Cu o suprafaţă de peste 350 metri pătrați, MasterCard Business Lounge poate găzdui până la 80 de călători, punând la dispoziţia acestora gustări și diverse băuturi într-un spaţiu elegant mobilat. Design-ul şi amenajarea MasterCard Lounge au fost realizate de doi arhitecţi români, Marian Oprea şi Iulia Trifan – 122 StudioLab, care au o experienţă bogată în proiecte de amenajare de birouri.\r\n\r\n“Mă bucur să particip la deschiderea acestui lounge în Bucureşti, ca parte a proiectului regional pe care l-am coordonat în ultimele luni” - a spus Denisa Mateescu, Vice President Market Development MasterCard Europe. “Sunt sigură că acesta va fi un popas plăcut pentru toţi posesorii de carduri MasterCard Premium care călătoresc în străinătate şi un beneficiu adiţional pe care îl vor aprecia din plin.” La rândul său Cosmin Vladimirescu, General România și Moldova al MasterCard a declarat: “Ne bucurăm să oferim posesorilor de carduri premium MasterCard o experienţă exclusivistă pe aeroportul Bucureşti Henri Coandă, cu atât mai mult cu cât călătoriile internaţionale sunt situaţii tipice în care cardurile îşi arată cel mai bine utilitatea”.\r\n\r\nDeschiderea MasterCard Lounge pe aeroportul din Bucureşti face parte dintr-un amplu program regional.

N-am ajuns până acum în vreo stațiune alpină de schi din Bulgaria. Am colectat doar informații ce spuneau că o parte dintre complexele montane le concurează cu succes pe cele din Elveția, Franța, Austria ori Italia. Am avut ocazia să constat că lucrurile stau cam așa. Pentru a înțelege complexitatea ofertei aflați că această țară deține 146 de vârfuri montane cu înălțimi de peste 2.000 de metri, că aproximativ 30% din teritoriul Bulgariei este ocupat de formaţiuni muntoase, dominat de 37 de munți.\r\n\r\nPrima stație a fost la Boroveţ.

Și aici am putut constata că toată infrastructura turistică este bine conectată. Și la Pamporovo există pe toate pârtiile mașini de întreținut zăpada, poți ajunge la pârtii , din centrul stațiunii ori din fața hotelului, cu microbuze, întregul transport fiind asigurat gratuit.

Fondat prin secolul al XVII-lea satul Şiroka Lăka este una dintre cele mai vizitate destinații turistice, datorită arhitecturii sale renascentiste, culturii muzicale, peisajelor sale și trecutului istoric. În anul 1972 în sat a fost înființată Școala Națională de Creaţie Populară. Iar copii duc azi tradițiile mai departe. Tot aici se desfășoară anual Festivalul „kukerilor” (dansatori impresionanţi, mascaţi abundent ca nişte monştri) numit \"Pesponedelnik\". Hainele ciudate şi pestriţe ale kukerilor sunt decorate cu usturoi, fasole, ardei. De la Siroka Laka am pornit spre Zlatograd, o altă așezare care ne-a impresionat pentru modul în care a fost conservată. Se află la doar doi kilometri de granița cu Grecia. Am nimerit aici chiar de Sf. Tudor care ar corespunde la noi cu sărbătoarea Paștele Cailor. În inima orașului este construit complexul etnografic al arealului „Zlatograd”.El este format dintr-un muzeu, ateliere meșteșugărești și o expoziție cu diferite mașini tradiționale acționate de apă, cafenele unde puteți să comandați o ceașca de cafea ”învârtită” pregătită pe nisip fierbinte și servită cu ritual special. În Muzeul Poștei am descoperit printre colecțiile filatelice expuse și serii de timbre românești. Vizitatorul poate sa vadă și atelierele meșterilor care sunt autentice, iar ceea ce se realizează în fața ochilor poate fi și cumpărat.\r\n\r\nAsul din mânecă - apele minerale\r\nReîntorși la Sofia am avut o întâlnire interesantă cu Branimir Botev, liderul turismului în cadrul Ministerului Economiei și Energiei din Republica Bulgaria. Domnia sa este de părere că Bulgaria are azi cel puțin trei atuuri care o recomandă ca o atracție turistică redutabilă: Turismul litoral, bine poziționat și frecventat; turismul montan cu un potențial în creștere, respectiv turismul de welness și Spa. Bulgaria estimează că va atrage în anii 2020 circa 9-10 milioane de turiști străini. Conform strategiei naționale ponderea segmentelor se va schimba în structura turismului bulgar.\r\nCartea câștigătoarea va fi cu certitudine turismul balnear și de întreținere cu apele sale minerale. Bulgaria deține circa 650 de izvoare minerale (parte din ele cunoscute încă din epoca tracilor și a dacilor, care erau renumiți ca lecuitori extraordinari în lumea antică), printre care se află și izvorul cel mai cald din Europa. La ora aceasta oferta de peste 300 de hoteluri Spa și balneare. Numai în ultimii ani industria Spa din această țară a cunoscut investiții de peste 1 miliard de euro. Domnul Botev nu a scăpat ocazia să mulțumească românilor care aduc în fiecare an turismului bulgar 1 din 7 euro încasați de industrie.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','BULGARIA - Investițiile reinventează turismul, TENDINTE nr.119','','publish','open','open','','bulgaria-investitiile-reinventeaza-turismul-tendinte-nr-119','','','2014-04-11 10:12:22','2014-04-11 08:12:22','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2813',0,'post','',0),(2814,1,'2014-04-11 10:03:51','2014-04-11 08:03:51','','Bansko_relax','','inherit','open','open','','bansko_relax','','','2014-04-11 10:03:51','2014-04-11 08:03:51','',2813,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Bansko_relax.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2815,1,'2014-04-11 10:03:52','2014-04-11 08:03:52','','Bulgaria grup','','inherit','open','open','','bulgaria-grup','','','2014-04-11 10:03:52','2014-04-11 08:03:52','',2813,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Bulgaria-grup.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2816,1,'2014-04-11 10:03:53','2014-04-11 08:03:53','','Bulgaria Ministrul turismului Branimir Botev1','','inherit','open','open','','bulgaria-ministrul-turismului-branimir-botev1','','','2014-04-11 10:03:53','2014-04-11 08:03:53','',2813,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Bulgaria-Ministrul-turismului-Branimir-Botev1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2817,1,'2014-04-11 10:03:54','2014-04-11 08:03:54','','Bulgaria ski 018','','inherit','open','open','','bulgaria-ski-018','','','2014-04-11 10:03:54','2014-04-11 08:03:54','',2813,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Bulgaria-ski-018.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2818,1,'2014-04-11 10:03:55','2014-04-11 08:03:55','','Bulgaria ski 047','','inherit','open','open','','bulgaria-ski-047','','','2014-04-11 10:03:55','2014-04-11 08:03:55','',2813,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Bulgaria-ski-047.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2819,1,'2014-04-11 10:03:56','2014-04-11 08:03:56','','Bulgaria ski 055','','inherit','open','open','','bulgaria-ski-055','','','2014-04-11 10:03:56','2014-04-11 08:03:56','',2813,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Bulgaria-ski-055.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2820,1,'2014-04-11 10:03:57','2014-04-11 08:03:57','','Bulgaria ski 065','','inherit','open','open','','bulgaria-ski-065','','','2014-04-11 10:03:57','2014-04-11 08:03:57','',2813,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Bulgaria-ski-065.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2821,1,'2014-04-11 10:03:58','2014-04-11 08:03:58','','Bulgaria ski 125','','inherit','open','open','','bulgaria-ski-125','','','2014-04-11 10:03:58','2014-04-11 08:03:58','',2813,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Bulgaria-ski-125.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2822,1,'2014-04-11 10:03:58','2014-04-11 08:03:58','','Bulgaria ski 164','','inherit','open','open','','bulgaria-ski-164','','','2014-04-11 10:03:58','2014-04-11 08:03:58','',2813,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Bulgaria-ski-164.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2823,1,'2014-04-11 10:03:59','2014-04-11 08:03:59','','Bulgaria ski 208','','inherit','open','open','','bulgaria-ski-208','','','2014-04-11 10:03:59','2014-04-11 08:03:59','',2813,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Bulgaria-ski-208.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2824,1,'2014-04-11 10:07:54','2014-04-11 08:07:54','BULGARIA - Investițiile reinventează turismul\n\nAnul trecut vecinii noștri au primit circa 7,2 milioane de turiști străini.

Domnia sa este de părere că Bulgaria are azi cel puțin trei atuuri care o recomandă ca o atracție turistică redutabilă: Turismul litoral, bine poziționat și frecventat; turismul montan cu un potențial în creștere, respectiv turismul de welness și Spa. Bulgaria estimează că va atrage în anii 2020 circa 9-10 milioane de turiști străini. Conform strategiei naționale ponderea segmentelor se va schimba în structura turismului bulgar.\nCartea câștigătoarea va fi cu certitudine turismul balnear și de întreținere cu apele sale minerale. Bulgaria deține circa 650 de izvoare minerale (parte din ele cunoscute încă din epoca tracilor și a dacilor, care erau renumiți ca lecuitori extraordinari în lumea antică), printre care se află și izvorul cel mai cald din Europa. La ora aceasta oferta de peste 300 de hoteluri Spa și balneare. Numai în ultimii ani industria Spa din această țară a cunoscut investiții de peste 1 miliard de euro. Domnul Botev nu a scăpat ocazia să mulțumească românilor care aduc în fiecare an turismului bulgar 1 din 7 euro încasați de industrie.\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','BULGARIA - Investițiile reinventează turismul, TENDINTE nr.119','','inherit','open','open','','2813-revision','','','2014-04-11 10:07:54','2014-04-11 08:07:54','',2813,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2014/04/11/2813-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2825,1,'2014-04-11 10:13:28','2014-04-11 08:13:28','BULGARIA - Investițiile reinventează turismul\n\nAnul trecut vecinii noștri au primit circa 7,2 milioane de turiști străini. Dacă raportăm la populație bulgară , circa 7 milioane, am putea spune că această țară are o încărcătură statistică de un turist străin pe... cap de locuitor. Partea cea mai tare este că 1 milion dintre aceștia au fost români cifră care a devansat pentru prima dată numărul germanilor sosiți în Țara Trandafirilor în aceeași perioadă. 70% dintre români au revenit cel puțin încă odată în Bulgaria și acest indiciu poate exprima gradul lor de satisfacție.\n\n[gallery link=\"file\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\nPentru ce revin aceștia în Bulgaria? Înainte să plecăm la drum - am răspuns invitației Ministerului Economiei și Energiei care patronează și turismul - pentru a ne documenta pe tema ”Ski , Spa și Welness” - trebuie să mai oferim niște răspunsuri. Puteți întâlni și vizita o parte dintre cele 43.000 de monumente culturale și istorice, dintre care 11 se află în patrimoniul UNESCO. Despre potențialul turistic al acestora ne-a vorbit profesorul Nikolai Dimitrov Ovciarov, chiar în inima ”Arena di Serdica”. Un hotel excelent din Sofia ce a conservat la subsol o parte din amfiteatrul vechii așezări: ”Serdica este una dintre denumirile istorice ale Sofiei. Trebuie să spun românii și bulgarii au mult de lucru împreună pentru a pune în valoare vestigiile antice trace și dacice, romane, grecești etc. După numărul de vestigii istorice Bulgaria ocupă locul 3 în Topul european după Grecia și Italia. Unii s-au arătat reticenți când țările noastre au aderat în tandem la Uniunea Europeană, dar adevărul istoric este că Bulgaria și România au un destin comun în Europa și acest aspect este recomandat de istoria lor”.\n\nUn triunghi al stațiunilor de schi\nȘi acum să urcăm în munți. N-am ajuns până acum în vreo stațiune alpină de schi din Bulgaria. Am colectat doar informații ce spuneau că o parte dintre complexele montane le concurează cu succes pe cele din Elveția, Franța, Austria ori Italia. Am avut ocazia să constat că lucrurile stau cam așa. Pentru a înțelege complexitatea ofertei aflați că această țară deține 146 de vârfuri montane cu înălțimi de peste 2.000 de metri, că aproximativ 30% din teritoriul Bulgariei este ocupat de formaţiuni muntoase, dominat de 37 de munți.\n\nPrima stație a fost la Boroveţ. Cu pârtii de schi cu o lungime totală de 58 de kilometri, cu posibilităţi de a schia și în condiții nocturne, Boroveţ este cel mai mare centru de schi din Bulgaria. Nu întâmplător aici s-au desfășurat de două ori competiţiile în cadrul Cupei mondiale de schi alpin. Anul acesta, pe 15 şi 16 februarie, staţiunea a mai găzduit una din competiţiile sportive pentru bărbaţi ale Cupei europene de schi alpin. Am mai aflat că turiștii au la dispoziție 24 de pârtii grupate în 3 centre de schi care sunt conectate prin sisteme de transport pe cablu - „Sitneakovo” , „Iastrebeţ”, respectiv „Markugik”. Cel din urmă este și raiul tinerilor iubitori de snowboard. Note excelente pentru hotelurile Samokov, o veche structură de pe vremea comunismului, refăcută însă după cerințele moderne cu camere confortabile și centru sportiv și de întreținere, respectiv pentru Yastrebetz, un complex modern cu bază Spa și o bucătărie de excepție.\n\nBansko, a doua stațiune vizitată e promovată ca una dintre cele mai bune 20 de staţiuni de schi din lume. Nu o spun bulgarii. Sunt concluziile Academiei Premiilor mondiale de schi, care a chestionat în cadrul unei anchete preferințele a peste 1 milion de oameni din întreaga lume. Bansko este în topul vedetelor sporturilor de iarnă. În fiecare an vă puteți întâlni aici cu multe celebrităţi ale schi-ului mondial. De la campionul olimpic și mondial Alberto Tomba, schiorul Marc Girardelli - singurul câştigător de cinci ori al Marelui Glob de cristal, schiorul numărul 1 în Bulgaria din toate timpurile - Petăr Popanghelov, marele campion Luc Alaphand, care în afară că a câştigat Marele Glob de cristal al Cupei Mondiale de schi alpin din 1997, a câştigat şi cea mai grea cursa automobilistică din lume – raliul „Dakar”in 2006. Localitatea Bansko, adăpostită la poalele Munților Pirin, a fost aleasă în 2011 capitala de iarnă a Balcanilor. Ea a fost denumită și minicapitala tradiţiilor bulgăreşti, datorită delicioaselor preparate gastronomice dar și obiceiurile folclorice. Am avut ocazia să ne familiarizăm cu o parte din ele în complexul Kapana de la Dobriniște al cărui patron - Marlin Galcev și soția sa Lili Galceva, sunt și bucătarii șefi ai restaurantului. Primarul localității, rudă cu aceștia - Chitan Galcev, ne-a spus că viitorul orașului este strâns legat de valorificarea apelor minerale din zonă. De calitatea proiectelor ne-am convins și la Pirin Golf Hotel & Spa, care poziționează localitatea, încet dar sigur, în zona selectă a destinațiilor de golf .\n\nÎn fine, Pamporovo, a treia stațiune de schi s-a dovedit la fel de atractivă. Și aici am putut constata că toată infrastructura turistică este bine conectată. Și la Pamporovo există pe toate pârtiile mașini de întreținut zăpada, poți ajunge la pârtii , din centrul stațiunii ori din fața hotelului, cu microbuze, întregul transport fiind asigurat gratuit. Ca și în celelalte stațiuni și aici se află Centre de informare turistică, dotate cu săli de proiecție, de unde poți lua numeroase pliante în limbi străini, îți poți cumpăra suveniruri sau închiria serviciile unui ghid, monitor de schi etc. Stațiunea e străjuită de vârful „Snejanka” (1926 de metri). Aproape toate pârtiile de schi, ce se desfășoară pe o lungime de 37 de kilometri, încep de aici iar altitudinea acestora variază de la 1930 la 1444 de metri. Aproximativ 90% dintre pârtii sunt dotate cu utilaje pentru zăpadă artificială. Pentru schiori sunt disponibile șase telescaune și nouă teleschiuri, cu o capacitate totală de 11.600 de persoane pe oră.\nDe la Şiroka Lăka la Zlatograd\nTrebuie să spunem că și turismul rural este la el acasă în zona Rodopilor. Fondat prin secolul al XVII-lea satul Şiroka Lăka este una dintre cele mai vizitate destinații turistice, datorită arhitecturii sale renascentiste, culturii muzicale, peisajelor sale și trecutului istoric. În anul 1972 în sat a fost înființată Școala Națională de Creaţie Populară. Iar copii duc azi tradițiile mai departe. Tot aici se desfășoară anual Festivalul „kukerilor” (dansatori impresionanţi, mascaţi abundent ca nişte monştri) numit \"Pesponedelnik\". Hainele ciudate şi pestriţe ale kukerilor sunt decorate cu usturoi, fasole, ardei. De la Siroka Laka am pornit spre Zlatograd, o altă așezare care ne-a impresionat pentru modul în care a fost conservată. Se află la doar doi kilometri de granița cu Grecia. Am nimerit aici chiar de Sf. Tudor care ar corespunde la noi cu sărbătoarea Paștele Cailor. În inima orașului este construit complexul etnografic al arealului „Zlatograd”.El este format dintr-un muzeu, ateliere meșteșugărești și o expoziție cu diferite mașini tradiționale acționate de apă, cafenele unde puteți să comandați o ceașca de cafea ”învârtită” pregătită pe nisip fierbinte și servită cu ritual special. În Muzeul Poștei am descoperit printre colecțiile filatelice expuse și serii de timbre românești. Vizitatorul poate sa vadă și atelierele meșterilor care sunt autentice, iar ceea ce se realizează în fața ochilor poate fi și cumpărat.\n\nAsul din mânecă - apele minerale\nReîntorși la Sofia am avut o întâlnire interesantă cu Branimir Botev, liderul turismului în cadrul Ministerului Economiei și Energiei din Republica Bulgaria.

\r\nThe trip guide Fodor`s has performed a Top 10 the most beautiful lodging places sculptured in ice in the entire world. It includes on the third place the Ice Hotel from Balea Lake.\r\nThe editors of the publication praise the hotel from Fagaras mountains. „Sheltered in a valley surrounded by mountains, built close to a glacial lake, the Ice Hotel is probably the most fashionable destination of this kind. The guests may lodge in the rooms of the hotel or may choose one of the nearby igloo. After warming up near a camp fire, the visitors may enjoy the dishes of traditional food at the restaurant of Balea Lake Cabin.

It is presented as a salt mine from Transylvania (Romania), that has become a popular touristic attraction since \'90s.

The authors state that „Close to the town of Sinaia, the valley narrows and displays the Bucegi Mountains on west, whereas on east the slopes are smoother. In Sinaia you may stop to visit Peles Palace or to take the cable tramway to Bucegi. Continuing by train to Busteni, you may admire the grandiose rocks and the Caraiman mountain on west. The small town of Busteni is a starting point for several routes, including to Predeal (station situated on altitude of over 1000 metres), and then the route descends to Brasov.

Să fiți răsfățați cu cafea, cocktailuri, cu albume și ziare de epocă, cu pliante și filme proiectate, din care să aflați cum călătoreau străbunicii noștri pe vremea lui ”Hei tramvai, cu etaj și tras de cai!”. Bineînțeles, veți avea și stații, unde veți coborî să vedeți și alte obiective turistice. Iar la capătul unei linii imaginare, c-o fi la Sibiu, Iași, Timișoara ori București -, să fiți așteptați de organizatori într-o poiană cu un pic-nic, făcut după toate regulile... catering-ului.\r\n\r\nI-a să vedem, că tot nu avem pe nicăieri!

Totul s-ar putea încheia, dacă ar fi vorba de București, spre exemplu la Casa Capșa - ale cărei saloane sunt atât de goale că te ia frigul -, cu o degustare cu bomboane fondante, o felie de tort Mascotă sau Malakoff.\r\nDar un tur ghidat, al berii, cârnaților și mititeilor, prin orașe cu tradiție gastronomică, credeți că nu i-ar fascina pe turiști?

Din România a fost ales traseul Ploiești – Brașov care străbate Valea Prahovei. Autorii descriu că „În apropierea orașului Sinaia, valea se îngustează și afișează Munții Bucegi la vest, în timp ce la est pantele sunt mai blânde. În Sinaia puteți face o oprire pentru a vizita Palatul Peleș sau pentru a lua telecabina către Bucegi. Continuând cu trenul spre Bușteni, puteți admira stâncile falnice și Caraimanul la vest. Orășelul Bușteni este punct de plecare pentru numeroase trasee, inclusiv spre Predeal (stațiunea situată la o altitudine de peste 1000 metri), iar apoi ruta coboară spre Brașov.

\r\nA 46-a ediție a International Pow Wow (IPW), se va desfășura în acest an, în premieră în orașul Chicago. Sub cupola Centrului de congrese se vor întâlni, între 5 și 9 aprilie, peste 2.200 de firme care cumpără ori vând Statele Unite turistice prin zeci de mii de pachete turistice ce includ cazări în sute de mii de hoteluri. La acest Târg, cel mai mare din lumea specialiștilor B2B, vor fi prezente peste 70 de țări. Reprezentanții lor vor derula circa 90.000 de întâlniri directe, iar cei care au fost cel puțin odată la un Pow Wow-ul american știu câte kilograme se slăbește pe zi. Nu e glumă, e de muncă. După cum declara Roger Dow, președintele US Travel Association, ”de la aceste întîlniri se așteaptă generarea unor afaceri estimate la circa 4,7 miliarde de dolari”.\r\nFrișca de pe tortul business-ului turistic o reprezintă cei circa 500 de editori și jurnaliști de travel internaționali care sunt invitați la Chicago. Un record comparabil, dacă nu greșim, cu cel înregistrat la ediția IPW de la New York. De altfel ziariștii de travel au, timp de o zi, propriul lor târg, Media Marketplace, în care fac și desfac programe și produse de promovare de PR și Comunicare. Echipa Traveller Magazin participă pentru al 16-lea an consecutiv la International Pow Wow din SUA. Ea se află alături de două agenții de turism veterane, cotate pe piața americană - Olimpic Internațional, respectiv World Travel, dar și de un nou venit Karpaten Turism. Din programul pentru media am aflat că vedeta acestui an va continua să fie campania internațională ”Brand USA” lansată în 2012. Anul trecut ea a abordat 11 noi piețe de la care americanii așteaptă milioane de noi turiști.

Cele trei zile de târg contemporan (9-11 mai) vor anima vechea piaţă a centrului istoric, zisă astăzi a Sfatului, cu un festival axat pe tradiţii şi multiculturalitate. La standurile din zona dedicată turismului vizitatorii vor găsi informaţii despre atracţiile şi specificul fiecărei ţări participante la festival. În zona culinară se vor întâlni cu delicatese din toate cele 28 ţări ale Uniunii Europene: de la brânzeturi maturate, cârnaţi şi plăcinte savuroase până la vinuri ori alte băuturi îmbietoare.\r\nOrchestra Filarmonicii Braşov va întreţine atmosfera de sărbătoare pe scena din Piaţa Sfatului, în timp ce balerinii Operei din Braşov vor prezenta momente coregrafice clasice dar şi dansuri tradiţionale din diverse ţări. Un alt spaţiu deschis publicului, pentru discuţii libere şi prezentări, va fi Cafe D’ Europe. Aici s-ar putea să vă întâlniți chiar cu ambasadorii Austriei, Germaniei ori Elveţiei, care şi-au anunţat deja vizita la Braşov.\r\nHotelul de gheață de la Bâlea e în grațiile Fodor\'s\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Hotel-Gheata-1.jpg\" "\\"Hotel")
\r\nGhidul de călătorii Fodor`s a realizat un Top 10 al celor mai frumoase locuri de cazare sculptate în gheață din toata lumea. În cadrul acestuia, pe locul al treilea se clasează Hotelul de Gheață de la Bâlea Lac.\r\nEditorii publicației descriu laudativ hotelul din munții Făgăraș. ”Adăpostit într-o vale înconjurată de munți, ridicat în apropierea unui lac glaciar, Hotelul de Gheață este probabil cea mai în vogă destinație de acest gen. Oaspeții se pot caza în camerele hotelului sau pot opta pentru unul din igluu-rile din apropiere. După ce se încălzesc în apropierea unui foc de tabără, vizitatorii se pot delecta cu diverse feluri de mâncăruri tradiționale la restaurantul Cabanei Balea Lac. Pe primele două locuri ale clasamentului realizat de Fodor`s se situează Kakslauttanen (Finlanda) respectiv Snow Village, Montreal (Canada).\r\n\r\nTraveo.ro - noi oportunități pentru călătorii\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Ev-Traveo.jpg\" "\\"Ev")
\r\nLucian Boronea, liderul companiei Accent Travel & Events a anunțat lansarea platformei de booking turistic Traveo.ro. Ea oferă utilizatorilor soluția completă pentru orice călătorie - avion, hotel, pachete tematice sau city break-uri. Trei dintre inovațiile pe care le aduce Traveo.ro pe piața românească sunt funcționalitățile Get Away, Weekend Search și Activity Search. Astfel, Traveo oferă utilizatorilor săi o mai mare flexibilitate și libertate în a găsi cele mai bune soluții pentru călătoriile lor.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Ev.-traveo2.jpg\" "\\"Ev.")
\r\nPrin sistemul Get Away utilizatorul își poate defini un buget, o zonă și o perioadă în care dorește să călătorească și primește mai multe oferte din care își poate alege aranjamentul cel mai potrivit. De asemenea, noi pe piața din România sunt și căutarea după activități specifice, care permite utilizatorului să găsească pachete potrivite cu hobby-urile sale (de exemplu sporturi de iarnă, shopping sau pescuit) și căutarea doar după perioada de weekend, utilă celor care vor să evadeze într-un city break la final de săptămână. Traveo.ro are la bază o variantă personalizată a platformei TRIP, un software puternic, inovator, cu arhitectură modulară, o platformă multitasking care permite conectarea la cei mai importanți furnizori internaționali de servicii de turism. Traveo.ro se lansează cu 14 dintre cei mai mari furnizori, printre care Amadeus, Gulliver Travel Associates sau Expedia. Sistemul accesează peste 170.000 de hoteluri și peste 450 de linii aeriene.\r\nÎncepând cu 2012, Accent Travel & Events (conform cifrei de afaceri se situează în topul primelor cinci agenții de turism din România și e lider pe zona de turism intern), a schimbat întreaga arhitectură tehnologică a agenției și a implementat un nou sistem de rezervări. Toate schimbările au permis o trecere firească spre zona de online - a declara Loredana Stanciu, un al lider al Accent Travel & Events, implicat în dezvoltarea noului produs. Investiția anunțată de directorul Lucian Boronea, în cadrul unei întâlniri cu presa, se ridică la circa 500.000 de euro, atât în dezvoltare software, implementarea soluțiilor de inventar și rezervări, design, cât și în licențe ale furnizorilor, call center sau marketing. El se așteaptă ca Traveo.ro să genereze după un an o cifră de afaceri de circa 3 milioane de euro.\r\n\r\nM.

Din România a fost ales traseul Ploiești – Brașov care străbate Valea Prahovei. Autorii descriu că „În apropierea orașului Sinaia, valea se îngustează și afișează Munții Bucegi la vest, în timp ce la est pantele sunt mai blânde. În Sinaia puteți face o oprire pentru a vizita Palatul Peleș sau pentru a lua telecabina către Bucegi. Continuând cu trenul spre Bușteni, puteți admira stâncile falnice și Caraimanul la vest. Orășelul Bușteni este punct de plecare pentru numeroase trasee, inclusiv spre Predeal (stațiunea situată la o altitudine de peste 1000 metri), iar apoi ruta coboară spre Brașov. Această linie feroviară este traversată zilnic de 24 de trenuri rapide.”\n\nCHICAGO - IPW va genera 4,7 miliarde de dolari\n\nA 46-a ediție a International Pow Wow (IPW), se va desfășura în acest an, în premieră în orașul Chicago. Sub cupola Centrului de congrese se vor întâlni, între 5 și 9 aprilie, peste 2.200 de firme care cumpără ori vând Statele Unite turistice prin zeci de mii de pachete turistice ce includ cazări în sute de mii de hoteluri. La acest Târg, cel mai mare din lumea specialiștilor B2B, vor fi prezente peste 70 de țări. Reprezentanții lor vor derula circa 90.000 de întâlniri directe, iar cei care au fost cel puțin odată la un Pow Wow-ul american știu câte kilograme se slăbește pe zi. Nu e glumă, e de muncă. După cum declara Roger Dow, președintele US Travel Association, ”de la aceste întîlniri se așteaptă generarea unor afaceri estimate la circa 4,7 miliarde de dolari”.\nFrișca de pe tortul business-ului turistic o reprezintă cei circa 500 de editori și jurnaliști de travel internaționali care sunt invitați la Chicago. Un record comparabil, dacă nu greșim, cu cel înregistrat la ediția IPW de la New York. De altfel ziariștii de travel au, timp de o zi, propriul lor târg, Media Marketplace, în care fac și desfac programe și produse de promovare de PR și Comunicare. Echipa Traveller Magazin participă pentru al 16-lea an consecutiv la International Pow Wow din SUA. Ea se află alături de două agenții de turism veterane, cotate pe piața americană - Olimpic Internațional, respectiv World Travel, dar și de un nou venit Karpaten Turism. Din programul pentru media am aflat că vedeta acestui an va continua să fie campania internațională ”Brand USA” lansată în 2012. Anul trecut ea a abordat 11 noi piețe de la care americanii așteaptă milioane de noi turiști.

Cele trei zile de târg contemporan (9-11 mai) vor anima vechea piaţă a centrului istoric, zisă astăzi a Sfatului, cu un festival axat pe tradiţii şi multiculturalitate. La standurile din zona dedicată turismului vizitatorii vor găsi informaţii despre atracţiile şi specificul fiecărei ţări participante la festival. În zona culinară se vor întâlni cu delicatese din toate cele 28 ţări ale Uniunii Europene: de la brânzeturi maturate, cârnaţi şi plăcinte savuroase până la vinuri ori alte băuturi îmbietoare.\nOrchestra Filarmonicii Braşov va întreţine atmosfera de sărbătoare pe scena din Piaţa Sfatului, în timp ce balerinii Operei din Braşov vor prezenta momente coregrafice clasice dar şi dansuri tradiţionale din diverse ţări. Un alt spaţiu deschis publicului, pentru discuţii libere şi prezentări, va fi Cafe D’ Europe. Aici s-ar putea să vă întâlniți chiar cu ambasadorii Austriei, Germaniei ori Elveţiei, care şi-au anunţat deja vizita la Braşov.\nHotelul de gheață de la Bâlea e în grațiile Fodor\'s\n\nGhidul de călătorii Fodor`s a realizat un Top 10 al celor mai frumoase locuri de cazare sculptate în gheață din toata lumea. În cadrul acestuia, pe locul al treilea se clasează Hotelul de Gheață de la Bâlea Lac.\nEditorii publicației descriu laudativ hotelul din munții Făgăraș. ”Adăpostit într-o vale înconjurată de munți, ridicat în apropierea unui lac glaciar, Hotelul de Gheață este probabil cea mai în vogă destinație de acest gen. Oaspeții se pot caza în camerele hotelului sau pot opta pentru unul din igluu-rile din apropiere. După ce se încălzesc în apropierea unui foc de tabără, vizitatorii se pot delecta cu diverse feluri de mâncăruri tradiționale la restaurantul Cabanei Balea Lac. Pe primele două locuri ale clasamentului realizat de Fodor`s se situează Kakslauttanen (Finlanda) respectiv Snow Village, Montreal (Canada).\n\nTraveo.ro - noi oportunități pentru călătorii\nLucian Boronea, liderul companiei Accent Travel & Events a anunțat lansarea platformei de booking turistic Traveo.ro. Ea oferă utilizatorilor soluția completă pentru orice călătorie - avion, hotel, pachete tematice sau city break-uri. Trei dintre inovațiile pe care le aduce Traveo.ro pe piața românească sunt funcționalitățile Get Away, Weekend Search și Activity Search. Astfel, Traveo oferă utilizatorilor săi o mai mare flexibilitate și libertate în a găsi cele mai bune soluții pentru călătoriile lor.\nPrin sistemul Get Away utilizatorul își poate defini un buget, o zonă și o perioadă în care dorește să călătorească și primește mai multe oferte din care își poate alege aranjamentul cel mai potrivit. De asemenea, noi pe piața din România sunt și căutarea după activități specifice, care permite utilizatorului să găsească pachete potrivite cu hobby-urile sale (de exemplu sporturi de iarnă, shopping sau pescuit) și căutarea doar după perioada de weekend, utilă celor care vor să evadeze într-un city break la final de săptămână. Traveo.ro are la bază o variantă personalizată a platformei TRIP, un software puternic, inovator, cu arhitectură modulară, o platformă multitasking care permite conectarea la cei mai importanți furnizori internaționali de servicii de turism. Traveo.ro se lansează cu 14 dintre cei mai mari furnizori, printre care Amadeus, Gulliver Travel Associates sau Expedia. Sistemul accesează peste 170.000 de hoteluri și peste 450 de linii aeriene.\nÎncepând cu 2012, Accent Travel & Events (conform cifrei de afaceri se situează în topul primelor cinci agenții de turism din România și e lider pe zona de turism intern), a schimbat întreaga arhitectură tehnologică a agenției și a implementat un nou sistem de rezervări. Toate schimbările au permis o trecere firească spre zona de online - a declara Loredana Stanciu, un al lider al Accent Travel & Events, implicat în dezvoltarea noului produs. Investiția anunțată de directorul Lucian Boronea, în cadrul unei întâlniri cu presa, se ridică la circa 500.000 de euro, atât în dezvoltare software, implementarea soluțiilor de inventar și rezervări, design, cât și în licențe ale furnizorilor, call center sau marketing. El se așteaptă ca Traveo.ro să genereze după un an o cifră de afaceri de circa 3 milioane de euro.\n\nM.

Că este cea mai mare insulă a Mediteranei. Că este partea ”exotică” a Italiei. Că poveștile contemporane sunt dominate de misterioare reglări de conturi între Mafie și mafioți, sărăcie, de măsline și portocale cu miez roșu, erupții vulcanice... Și mai ce?\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\n\r\nAcest ”și mai ce?” are un răspuns copleșitor cu fațete strălucitoare precum pietrele prețioase șlefuite de meșterul timp de-a lungul istoriei sale milenare. Haideți cu noi ca să descoperim o parte din ”mostrele” care strălucesc în acest cufăr cu minuni care este Sicilia. A intrat pe ușa din față a istoriei fiind cunoscută drept ”buricul lumii” în timpurile antice. Toate civilizațiile lumii au înscris o pagină de frumusețe în memoria insulei: de la greci la arabi, de la romani la cartaginezi, de la vandali la spanioli, bizantini, francezi și, de ce nu, englezi. Toți acești cuceritori temporari au vrut câte ceva din frumoasa insulă lăsând la rândul lor urme culturale și economice ale trecerii lor. Așa a devenit Sicilia ”lada de zestre a Italiei” ori a Mediteranei. Insula are, după cum știți origine vulcanică, iar simbolul ei este Etna, cel mai înalt vulcan din Europa.\r\n\r\nVârful său veșnic înzăpezit și fumegând l-a transformat, pentru arabi de exemplu, în ”Muntele Munților” iar pentru greci în ”Muntele care arde”. E firesc să începem cu Etna. Nu există turist care vine în Sicilia să nu dorească să se ducă sus, cât mai sus, mai aproape de craterul plin de viață, unde uneori se trăiește periculos. Etna a devenit astfel o destinație în sine. Amenajările turistice permit accesul până aproape de vârf, la 3.323 de metri, unde poți ajunge cu telefericul. De aici încep tururile ghidate, cu șerpari, cu mașini de teren, până în vecinătatea vârfului care borborosește în permanență. Chiar dacă nu urcați până acolo peisajul SF pe care vi-l oferă panorama de la punctul cel mai accesibil turiștilor este impresionantă. Așezările se înșiră până la poalele vulcanului, simetric ca mărgelele pe ață, și te îmbie să cobori în livezile cu migdali, portocali sau măslini, să te afunzi în arome și culori. Sau pur și simplu să te plimbi printre cratere - peste 2.000 -, și să te lași copleșit de ingeniozitatea naturii care a imaginat aici din lavă pietrificată și zgură o colecție de forme și imagini fantasmagorice. Parcă îți vine să calci puțin crăcănat și să te crezi cosmonaut ajuns... pe Lună. Niciunde ca pe Etna zăpada nu pare mai strălucitoare. Unii se lasă păcăliți de acest aspect și urcă îmbrăcați și încălțați necorespunzător. La poalele muntelui este o primăvară caldă și colorată, iar sus pe vârf zăpada albă îți întunecă vederea iar soarele râde cu colți de... gheață. Poți petrece liniștit o zi pe munte fără să simți cum trece timpul.\r\nEtna înseamnă însă și oameni. Aceștia - cu încredere și pasiune - își croiesc viața în umbra vulcanului, fără să-l supere dar încercând să-l supună. Solul fertil este propice pentru toate tipurile de îndeletniciri agricole. Noi nu ne-am lăsat fermecați de măslini și portocali ci de... aurul Etnei. Adică de miere. Căci obligatoriu, înainte să urcați pe munte se face un popas la Oro d\'Etna în Zafferana. Avem și noi mierea noastră dar nu avem încă știința de a o vinde... turistic. Cum se face aici? Să învățăm! Turul proprietății, ce încorporează și un mic muzeu, se încheie cu cel al magazinului. Aici un ghid, plăcerea este să îți vorbească în limba română Florentina, o fată pasionată de ceea ce face, prezintă rând pe rând instalația de îmbuteliat mierea dar și lecția standard ”Ce este și cum se face mierea?”. După care ești așteptată în magazin de Melida Papalardo, patronul firmei care se ocupă cu dezvoltarea acestor activități. Deguști, cumperi și de dezbraci de toate prejudecățile. Cu amabilitate și răbdare gazdele îți prezintă fiecare produs. Varietatea este atât de mare și mai ales inedită încât ai vrea să cumperi din toate. Ăsta-i comerțul, ăsta-i turismul - de la miere de lămâie, de portocale, de eucalipt, creme de miere cu fistic, fructe de pădure, căpșuni, pepeni galben, caramele și acadele sau leccalecca, creme de corp, pastă de prune cu ardei iute, măsline verzi, roșii uscate, migdale, fructe, legume vidate etc. Aflăm că orice comandă este onorată și pe bază de livrări la domiciliul clientului chiar și la hotelul turistului aflat prin zonă. Gazdele nu uită să-ți pună în coșul de cumpărături și un pliant cu produsele și activitățile lor și mai ales o pagină în care sunt descrise rețete tipic siciliene în care se folosesc ca ingrediente principale produsele lor. După cum se vede pe Etna, mierea este tratată precum... Aurul. Nu întâmplător, pentru că aici, la Zafferana, se produce 30% din mierea Italiei. Numai gazda noastră avea peste 900 de familii de albine. Nu-i așa că nu prea seamănă cu felul în care vindem noi produsele apicole!\r\nDupă o asemenea zi, plină de aventuri un somn odihnitor la hotel, însoțit de valurile mării aflate în reflux, este o binecuvântare. Dimineața deschizi ușa la balcon să te resfeți cu aerul marin. Fața îți este lovită ușor de vântul care îți aduce bucăți mici de zgură de pe Etna. În câteva minute terasa pe care îți bei cafeaua se umple de zgură. ”Nu intrați în panică, signore - vă liniștește recepționerul. Este ceva normal. Etna nu doarme și din când în când strănută. Dacă nu ar face-o ar fi un mare pericol!”. Altfel spus Etna v-a trimis o scrisoare de dragoste. Deschideți-o! E primăvară.

Că este cea mai mare insulă a Mediteranei. Că este partea ”exotică” a Italiei. Că poveștile contemporane sunt dominate de misterioare reglări de conturi între Mafie și mafioți, sărăcie, de măsline și portocale cu miez roșu, erupții vulcanice... Și mai ce?\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\n\r\nAcest ”și mai ce?” are un răspuns copleșitor cu fațete strălucitoare precum pietrele prețioase șlefuite de meșterul timp de-a lungul istoriei sale milenare. Haideți cu noi ca să descoperim o parte din ”mostrele” care strălucesc în acest cufăr cu minuni care este Sicilia. A intrat pe ușa din față a istoriei fiind cunoscută drept ”buricul lumii” în timpurile antice. Toate civilizațiile lumii au înscris o pagină de frumusețe în memoria insulei: de la greci la arabi, de la romani la cartaginezi, de la vandali la spanioli, bizantini, francezi și, de ce nu, englezi. Toți acești cuceritori temporari au vrut câte ceva din frumoasa insulă lăsând la rândul lor urme culturale și economice ale trecerii lor. Așa a devenit Sicilia ”lada de zestre a Italiei” ori a Mediteranei. Insula are, după cum știți origine vulcanică, iar simbolul ei este Etna, cel mai înalt vulcan din Europa.\r\n\r\nVârful său veșnic înzăpezit și fumegând l-a transformat, pentru arabi de exemplu, în ”Muntele Munților” iar pentru greci în ”Muntele care arde”. E firesc să începem cu Etna. Nu există turist care vine în Sicilia să nu dorească să se ducă sus, cât mai sus, mai aproape de craterul plin de viață, unde uneori se trăiește periculos. Etna a devenit astfel o destinație în sine. Amenajările turistice permit accesul până aproape de vârf, la 3.323 de metri, unde poți ajunge cu telefericul. De aici încep tururile ghidate, cu șerpari, cu mașini de teren, până în vecinătatea vârfului care borborosește în permanență. Chiar dacă nu urcați până acolo peisajul SF pe care vi-l oferă panorama de la punctul cel mai accesibil turiștilor este impresionantă. Așezările se înșiră până la poalele vulcanului, simetric ca mărgelele pe ață, și te îmbie să cobori în livezile cu migdali, portocali sau măslini, să te afunzi în arome și culori. Sau pur și simplu să te plimbi printre cratere - peste 2.000 -, și să te lași copleșit de ingeniozitatea naturii care a imaginat aici din lavă pietrificată și zgură o colecție de forme și imagini fantasmagorice. Parcă îți vine să calci puțin crăcănat și să te crezi cosmonaut ajuns... pe Lună. Niciunde ca pe Etna zăpada nu pare mai strălucitoare. Unii se lasă păcăliți de acest aspect și urcă îmbrăcați și încălțați necorespunzător. La poalele muntelui este o primăvară caldă și colorată, iar sus pe vârf zăpada albă îți întunecă vederea iar soarele râde cu colți de... gheață. Poți petrece liniștit o zi pe munte fără să simți cum trece timpul.\r\nEtna înseamnă însă și oameni. Aceștia - cu încredere și pasiune - își croiesc viața în umbra vulcanului, fără să-l supere dar încercând să-l supună. Solul fertil este propice pentru toate tipurile de îndeletniciri agricole. Noi nu ne-am lăsat fermecați de măslini și portocali ci de... aurul Etnei. Adică de miere. Căci obligatoriu, înainte să urcați pe munte se face un popas la Oro d\'Etna în Zafferana. Avem și noi mierea noastră dar nu avem încă știința de a o vinde... turistic. Cum se face aici? Să învățăm! Turul proprietății, ce încorporează și un mic muzeu, se încheie cu cel al magazinului. Aici un ghid, plăcerea este să îți vorbească în limba română Florentina, o fată pasionată de ceea ce face, prezintă rând pe rând instalația de îmbuteliat mierea dar și lecția standard ”Ce este și cum se face mierea?”.

O atracție turistică? O imagine emblematică pentru zona Văii Prahovei? Cu siguranță toate acestea la un loc sunt reunite de ”Crucea Eroilor Neamului”. Amplasată pe vârful Caraimanului ea ne semnalează din când în când că suntem datori să o păstrăm măcar așa cum era ea atunci când ne-a fost dăruită.\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\n\r\nPentru unii este doar o simplă cruce memorială. Pentru alții este și va rămâne un fabulos reper al istoriei naționale. O rememorare o facem împreună cu Alexandru Bartoc, președintele Fundației Culturale ”Bartoc”. ”Monumentul, căci nu vorbim de o simplă cruce ci de un monument care exprimă nivelul ingineresc și industrial la care ajunsesem atunci, a fost construit la inițiativa Regelui Ferdinand și a Reginei Maria, supranumită și \"mama răniților\". În luna mai 1926, a început construcția \"Crucii Eroilor Neamului\" în memoria celor căzuți în primul război mondial, razboiul de întregire a României. Crucea, ridicată pe șaua Caraimanului, spre valea Seacă, este încastrată în stâncă și alcătuită din profile de oțel imbinate prin nituire.\r\n\r\nConstrucția a durat 2 ani și 4 luni datorită complexității operațiunilor, a condițiilor naturale și mai ales a dificultăților în ceea ce privește transportul materialelor. Profilele metalice au fost duse cu ajutorul carelor cu boi iar zecile de mii de nituri, lemne, alte structuri, de la gara Bușteni la Fabrica de celuloză iar de acolo cu funicularul până la Casa Schil. Apoi au fost duse pe cărări destul de periculoase spre amplasamentul crucii, cu măgari, cai și mulți voluntari veniți din București, Brașov și Sibiu. Inaugurarea și sfințirea crucii s-a făcut pe 14 septembrie 1928, în Ziua Sfintei Cruci. Crucea are înălțimea de 39,37 metri inclusiv soclul de 7,9 metri, fiind construită la altitudinea de 2.291 metri. Lungimea brațelor este de 14,97 metri iar stâlpul central are o lățime de 2 metri. În soclul de beton armat s-a instalat un generator care a permis iluminarea crucii. În 1939 sistemul a fost refăcut și racordat la rețeaua națională, pentru alimentarea a 120 de becuri amplasate pe structura crucii. Acum, la peste 85 de ani de la inaugurarea crucii, ne mândrim că, la inițiativa și demersurile Fundației noastre - care a derulat numeroase proiecte culturale și turistice -, a fost recunoscută de Guinness World Records, ca fiind cea mai înalta cruce din lume amplasată la peste 2.291 metri”.\r\n\r\n\r\nArhitectul Nicolae Dan Manea spune că lansarea unui apel pentru mobilizarea resurselor financiare în cadrul campaniei ”Dați un ban pentru Caraiman”, despre care am mai scris în revista noastră, este cât se poate de oportună. ”Crucea Monument nu se află azi într-o stare alarmantă de uzură fizică. Dar peste câțiva ani se va ajunge aici dacă nu vom demara din timp un program de reabilitare, restaurare, conservare și reamenajare. Trebuie să precizez că în momentul inaugurării Monumentului Eroilor, acesta reprezenta cea mai înaltă structură metalică din Europa. Ea a fost comparată de-a lungul timpului ca realizare inginerească și simbolistică cu turnul Eiffel din Paris, cu Statuia Libertății din New York, cu Hristos Mântuitorul din Rio de Janeiro, respectiv cu Coloana fără de sfârșit de la Târgu Jiu”. Proiectul ansamblului, lucru mai puțin știut, a fost realizat de arhitecții Georges Cristinel și Constantin Pomponiu.\r\n\r\nLa rândul său, inginerul Ilie Marian, city managerul stațiunii Bușteni, este de părere că ”pentru restaurarea și valorificarea turistică a monumentului e necesar un proiect cu finanțare europeană, pentru că acesta este un bun al patrimoniului istoric național și, firește, european. Avem în vedere derularea unui proiect finanțat de guvernul norvegian, dar ne preocupă și susținerea Ministerului Culturii, care ar trebui să acorde o atenție specială monumentului. În ceea ce ne privește pe noi, cei implicați în acest proiect - Consiliul Local Bușteni, Fundația Culturală \"Bartoc\" și Districtul 2241 ROTARY Valea Prahovei, Clubul 82085 Sinaia -, suntem interesați să creștem vizibilitatea obiectivului, prin amenajarea unui mic muzeu, chiar sub structura Crucii Eroilor, a unui punct de informare și promovare turistică, prin deschiderea accesului turiștilor la terasa monumentului și, de ce nu, prin amenajarea unui heliport balizat în zonă”.\r\n\r\nToate acestea nu se vor realiza într-un an.

În acest reportaj promovăm cîteva sugestii din parcuri naturale americane în paralel cu ideile cristalizate recent într-un studiu românesc.\r\n„Îmbunătăţirea sustenabilităţii financiare a sistemului de arii naturale protejate din Munţii Carpaţi” este un proiect finanţat de Fondul Global de Mediu (GEF) şi implementat de Programul Naţiunilor Unite pentru Dezvoltare (UNDP) România şi Regia Naţională a Pădurilor – Romsilva, în parteneriat cu World Wildlife Fund (WWF). Studiul expune situaţia actuală din cinci parcuri pilot (Parcul Natural Apuseni, Parcul Natural Munţii Maramureşului, Parcul Natural Piatra Craiului, Parcul Natural Retezat şi Parcul Natural Vânătorii Neamţ), cu multele minusuri de gestionare la toate nivelurile, şi arată, într-o proiecţie negativă şi una pozitivă, unde se poate ajunge în 25 de ani. Îl găsiţi pe www.punepretpenatura.ro. Sectoarele studiate pentru fiecare în parte sunt: turism şi agrement, silvicultură şi vânătoare, agricultură, resurse de apă şi managementul riscurilor de dezastru.\r\n\r\nAvem cele mai parfumate căpiţe de fân?\r\nParcul Natural Apuseni (75.784 hectare) îi are pe “moţi”, o comunitate aparte, 35.000 locuitori răspândiţi în 55 de sate pe teritoriul protejat. Pajiştile pline de flori, pădurile întinse, peşterile numeroase şi, mai ales lipsa urmelor intervenţiei umane contemporane (nu sunt fire peste tot, panouri publicitare jerpelite la marginea drumului, lipsesc zonele aglomerate cu viloaie) fac din Apuseni o destinaţie de trecut pe listă. Parcul are trei centre de informare a turiştilor, pe trei dintre direcţiile de acces. La câteva dintre peşteri se plăteşte o taxă de intrare modică dar majoritatea nu sunt amenajate pentru a primii turişti.\r\n\r\nStudiul arată că arealul şi comunităţile locale ar prospera dacă s-ar mări taxele de intrare (la 2 sau 2,5 euro de persoană) şi s-ar aplica la mai multe locaţii (printre care şi vechile mine aurifere). În 2010 Parcul Natural Apuseni a generat venituri directe de 34.000 de euro, în principal, din plata tarifelor de vizitare. Încurajarea turiştilor de a folosi pensiunile locale pentru a se caza în zona parcului dar şi promovarea unor activităţi speciale de către autorităţi (tururi pe jos pentru admirarea faunei, pentru identificarea unor specii endemice din floră, pentru cules plante medicinale etc.) ar creşte atractivitatea dar şi veniturile. Un tur cu adevărat unic ar fi, credem noi, acela care ar plimba turistul pe urmele moţilor, arătându-i modul de viaţă tradiţional, şi , de ce nu, un altul axat pe istoria mineritului.\r\n\r\nȘtiți poanta cu cele mai grozave stele ?\r\nÎn statul Utah există o reţea fabuloasă de parcuri naturale şi zone protejate. Mai mult decât atât zonele unor aşezări sunt protejate precum parcuri istorice. Oraşul St. George, cu x locuitori a fost fondat prin 1850 de către câteva familii de mormoni care au deschis exploatarea fierului în zonă. La Frontier Homstead State Park Museum sunt nu numai instrumente de minerit dar şi documente în care citim inclusiv de câte neveste era nevoie pentru a stabili comunitatea. În parc vizitezi casele vechi, poţi spăla rufe în lighean, poţi tipări un ziar sau, împreună cu un ghid local foloseşti arme de vânătoare ori înveţi să tragi cu tunurile din dotare.\r\nSt. George este în drumul celor care străbat zona pentru a vizita parcul Cedar Breaks. Atracţia zonei protejate este un amfiteatru calcaros în nuanţe de roşu, roz, galben şi alb. Poţi conduce cam 10 km pe o şosea panoramică, există 28 arii de campare şi pic-nic, 4 terase amenajate în munte de unde să admiri panorama şi numeroase cărări amenajate. La centrul pentru vizitatori se plăteşte intrarea iar angajaţii parcului ţin şi prelegeri zilnice despre faună, floră etc. Zona are peste 3000 metri altitudine iar aici, spun specialiştii, se văd cele mai multe stele: au cel mai frumos cer nocturn din toată America. Frumoasă găselniţă, nu? Apusenii nu poat avea cea mai bună apă, cele mai parfumate căpiţe de fân? Ca să nu mai zicem de cele mai vechi mine romane de aur şi cele mai faine narcise! S-a înţeles ideea, nu?\r\n\r\nSimilar din cauza etnografiei dar având mai mulţi vizitatori este Parcul Natural Munţii Maramureşului (133.354 hectare). Aici locuiesc în jur de 100.000 de oameni. Tot românul a auzit de porţile sculptate în lemn, de bisericile unicat în ţară... Se porneşte la drum şi găseşte din ce în ce mai multe case mari, înghesuite la marginea drumului, în culori ţipătoare. Casele de lemn s-au cam vândut pe doi bani la italieni şi au ajuns prin afara României, meşteri mai sunt câţiva dar cerere locală...ioc. Natura e minunată, verdele acela crud, curat, moale îţi face sufletul să cânte. Dar zona suferă din ce în ce mai mult de ceea ce arată studiul citat: “acţiuni dăunătoare, printre care supra exploatarea resurselor forestiere prin defrişare şi braconaj, (...) degradarea şi fragmentarea habitatelor, cauzate de operaţiunile de construire a drumurilor şi caselor şi a infrastructurii turistice, care este concepută şi planificată necorespunzător.” În vacanţă, turistul care fuge de oraş nu vrea să vadă tot betoane!\r\n\r\nPe traseu cu bebe în cârcă\r\n\r\nParcul Zion, tot din Utrah, este un exemplu cum nu se poate mai bun de planificare şi eficienţă. La intrarea din sud este localitatea Springdale. O stradă cu clădiri cochete, cu spaţii verzi, plină de cafenele, magazinaşe diverse, galerii de artă şi locuinţe. Hotelurile au maxim 2 etaje şi majoritatea construcţiile au pereţii coloraţi în nuanţele pietrei muntelui. În Zion totul pare poleit cu cupru, lumina face muntele să ardă. În parc poţi merge cu un minitrenuleţ să admiri diversele forme ale stâncilor din mers, o aventură pentru comozi care durează cam o oră. Cele 6-7 trasee amenajate de urcă până la 2.000 metri altitudine. Iar amenajat înseamnă că potecile au frânghii şi opritori, trepte tăiate în piatră, băncuţe ici şi colo. Cascade, ochiuri de apă limpede, copaci şi, nu exagerăm, zeci de familii tinere pornite la drum cu echipament sportiv şi cu copii de nici un an, ancoraţi în spatele tatălui sau al mamei. Atât Springdale cât şi peisajul parcului amintesc cumva de Valea Prahovei, de Bucegi. Am făcut conexiunea probabil cu gândul la cum ar putea ajunge locaţiile româneşti, într-o proiecţie optimistă, în 25 de ani. Din Springdale un autobuz local transport turiştii la intrarea în parc, aici sunt casele de bilete, magazinul de suveniruri, centrul de informare (cu sală de proiecţii) – toate clădirile sunt făcute din lemn şi proiectate în aşa fel încât să nu deranjeze cu nimic peisajul.\r\n\r\nVrem mai mulți bani, trebuie investiți mai mult !\r\n\r\nParcul Naţional Piatra Craiului (14,774 hectare) include culoarele Rucăr-Bran şi Rucăr-Zărneşti. Pe teritoriul său trăiesc cam 30.000 de oameni şi s-ar putea lăuda cu cele 181 de specii rare de plante şi vieţuitoare din parc. Datorită Castelului Bran şi a zonei Moeciu este, poate, cel mai vizitat areal dintre parcurile amintite de studiu. Agroturismul, conservarea dar şi exploatarea tradiţiilor locale aduc momentan însă mulţi turişti rapizi, de week-end, care se opresc în zona Bran. Parcul are un singur centru pentru vizitatori, la Zărneşti. Accesul pe o săptâmână costă 7 lei, poţi plăti prin SMS căci şansele să depistezi trei automate albastre de bilete sunt, să zicem, mici. Zona Moeciu, atât de încărcată deja cu pesiuni şi complexe turistice, poartă de intrare în parc, nu are din păcate nici o facilitate care să atragă turistul spre mai departe - se precizează în același studiu finanțat de către GEF.\r\nProiectul arată că ariile protejate din Carpaţi sunt subfinanţate. Pentru cele cinci arii protejate aduse în discuţie a fost alocată suma de aproximativ 950.000 de euro în 2010, deşi se consideră că este nevoie de 1.600.000 de euro pentru acoperirea nevoilor de bază şi de 2.550.000 de euro pentru administrarea optimă a siturilor! Dar ca să ajungi la o administrare optimă trebuie întâi să ai o infrastructură optimă pentru ele. Munţii Carpaţi se întind pe o suprafaţă de 210.000 kilometri pătrați în Europa Centrală şi de Est, şi traversează şapte ţări: Republica Cehă, Ungaria, Polonia, România, Serbia, Slovacia şi Ucraina. Ei au fost incluşi de WWF în lista celor mai importante 200 de ecoregiuni din lume. Ei găzduiesc cele mai întinse suprafeţe de pădure montană, cele mai mari ecosisteme naturale montane intacte de păduri de fag şi de păduri mixte de fag şi brad şi cea mai mare suprafaţă de păduri virgine rămasă în Europa. România deţine 54% din lanţul carpatic.\r\n\r\nLa vânătoare de turiști\r\n\r\nReţeaua de Arii Naturale Protejate din Munţii Carpaţi (CNPA) este alcătuită din 285 de arii protejate (procetul de 17% din ecoregiune este, conform specialiştilor, foarte mic). Avem 22 de arii protejate majore, adică 12 parcuri naţionale şi 10 parcuri naturale. Studiul românesc arată că, nici la capitolele infrastructură şi posibilităţi de cazare, situaţia nu e... verde. În România există în jur de 200 de cabane de vânătoare administrate de RNP-Romsilva dintre care 120 în Carpaţi, dar numai 5 se găsesc în parcuri. Unităţile sunt subutilizate, nu sunt promovate şi nici administrate cu gândul la atragerea turiştilor. Accesul în ariile protejate este limitat deoarece s-au construit în acest scop puţine drumuri. Dacă totuși turistul ajunge în aria parcului nu are unde să se informeze. Pe lângă faptul că doar 4 din cele aproape 300 de parcuri carpatice au centre de vizitare (Retezat, Lunca Mureşului, Piatra Craiului şi Vânători Neamţ) ele sunt parțial funcționale, având dificultăţi de întreţinere.\r\n\r\nOchi albaştri versus Apus de soare\r\n\r\nParcul Naţional Retezat (38.138 hectare) a fost înfiinţat în 1935 şi este primul de acest gen din România. Localnicii îi spun „tărâmul fermecat, cu ochi albaştri” datorită comorilor lăsate aici de generoasa natură: 80 de lacuri şi tăuri care oglindesc cerul, unicate ale erei glaciare pe teritoriul ţării noastre. Accesul în parc costă, pe săptămână, 10 lei de persoană (nu contează numărul intrărilor). Din păcate în interiorul zonei protejate posibilităţile de cazare sunt limitate. În complexul turistic Pietrele, locul din care pot începe cele mai frumoase trasee, nu s-a mai investit din anii ’60.\r\n\r\nStudiul citat subliniază importanţa facilităţilor oferite posibililor clienţi dar şi a venirii în întâmpinarea dorinţelor acestora. Pentru turistul educat în călătorii calitate nu înseamnă numai curăţenie în hotel sau mâncare bună, clientul vrea când iese pe balcon să vadă un peisaj frumos, nu peretele vilei vecinului sau şoseaua. O cercetare făcută în Croaţia de către Institutul Turismului arată că vizitatorii sunt dispuşi să plătescă mai mult pentru hoteluri amplasate în zone de pădure şi că peisajul este un factor decisiv în alegerea hotelului. Cu cât sunt dispuşi să plătească mai mult? Cam cu 24 - 32%.\r\n\r\nSnow Canyon State Park este o locaţie mai puţin cunoscută în Utah. Nu are încă un centru pentru vizitatori, poţi intra fără să plăteşti. Există un drum asfaltat impecabil iar pe marginea sa sunt refugii, parcări şi zone de camping ori pic-nic, nepăzite dar cu apă curentă şi toalete. Atracţia locului este dată de combinaţia de culori şi forme dintre lava şi dunele de nisip... pietrificate. Administraţia parcului oferă trasee ghidate speciale printre care şi unul conceput pentru admiratul apusului de soare în parc. La o distanţă de 15-20 de minute de condus dezvoltatorii locali au deschis, în mijlocul unor pustietăţi aride, câteva complexe cu vile şi terenuri de golf, restaurante dar şi complexe de conferinţe. De oriunde ai privi către formaţiunile de lavă care, de la distanţă, arată ca nişte munţi, panorama este superbă. Cine nu ar vrea să iasă pe terasa micii sale vile, să admire câţiva arbuşti cu flori, iarba proaspăt stropită, şi peste zidurile arămii ale grădinii hotelului în care este cazat să privească liniştit, la o cafea de dimineaţă, cum soarele începe să lumineze munţii?\r\n\r\nE nevoie broşuri dar şi de oameni\r\n\r\nCathedral Gorge State Park este o altă zonă protejată mai puţin vizitată, în statul Nevada. Administraţia face eforturi pentru a face lumea să se oprească şi aici: au construit un centru pentru vizitatori, spații de cazare, au marcat kilometri întregi de trasee şi au publicat hărţi şi pliante cu toate păsările, şopârliţele şi musculiţele care s-ar putea vedea dacă nu ar fi prea cald în timpul zilei. Îngrijitorii parcului patrulează zilnic şi oferă tururi ghidate celor interesaţi. Spirele albe din praf vulcanic formează pereţi ca de catedrale gotice (de aici şi denumirea parcului). Se îngustează în canioane lungi, labirintice, de lăţimea unui om. Aventuroşii se târăsc pe burtă, prin praful alb, pentru a pătrunde în mici scobituri ale pereţilor, caută vieţuitoare şi... beau multă apă.\r\n\r\nAdministraţiile parcurilor carpatice oferă un număr limitat de tururi, lipsite de diversitate arată studiul românesc. Parcurile şi tururile nu sunt promovate suficient. În plus comunicarea este foarte slabă iar administraţiile deși au site-uri nu ştiu ce înseamnă marketing. Trebuie să înveţe lecţia materialelor promoţionale, a contactului cu operatorii turistici dar şi lecţia puterii cuvântului. Un om angajat pentru a promova parcul, o persoană care să vorbească tuturor şi oricui (dar în mod organizat) despre cel mai interesant parc natural din România. Realitatea în 2014 este că nu există nici măcar broşuri ale parcurilor iar publicarea unor hărţi ale habitatelor şi speciilor abia este la început.\r\n\r\nParcul Natural Vânători Neamţ ocupă 30.818 hectare şi a fost deschis în 1999. Pădurile de gorun, mânăstirile şi schiturile deja faimoase din apropierea oraşului Târgu Neamţ, monumentele istorice dar şi cei 21 de zimbri din areal, au făcut ca zona să fie una dintre cele mai vizitate dintre cele cinci parcuri pilot. Există 9 căi de acces iar Centrul de Vizitare Vânători Neamţ are şi un mini-hotel şi sală de conferinţe. Parcul Natural este sigurul loc din ţară în care zimbrul se întâlneşte în captivitate în cadrul Grădinii Zoologice din comuna Vânători (6 zimbri). Turiştii care s-au săturat de mânăstiri vin aici, petrec jumătate de oră privind animalele (sunt şi urşi, căprioare etc.) şi cam atât. Mai e ceva de muncă până la organizarea unor tururi cu maşini de teren prin rezervaţie şi cu posibilităţi de “foto-hunting” atât de la modă în alte ţări.\r\n\r\nÎn 25 de ani s-ar putea...\r\n\r\nÎn perspectiva negativă, conform căreia, modul actual de administrare a ariilor protejate nu se va schimba, economia României va pierde în următorii 25 de ani, numai ca venituri din turism, peste 2,6 miliarde de euro. Aici se adaugă şi distrugerea treptată a celorlalte surse de venit. Studiul arată că dacă exploatarea silvică va continua în ritmul actual, în 30 de ani povestea se va încheia prin dispariţia veniturilor (provocată de dispariţia lemnului). La capitolul agricultură zonele ar avea de suferit ireversibil din cauza îndepărtării comunităţilor locale de practicile tradiţionale. Într-o proiecţie negativă calitatea resurselor de apă va scădea. În jur de 70% dintre bazinele hidrografice din ariile protejate sunt împădurite, iar eroziunea solului este ţinută bine sub control, momentan. Posibila pierdere economică asociată cu dezasterele naturale (inundaţii şi alunecări de teren) este estimată de specialişti la 6% din PIB, ceea ce înseamnă aproximativ 2,3 miliarde de dolari pe an.\r\n\r\nValoarea activităţilor turistice şi recreative în cazul celor cinci parcuri era estimată la puţin peste 109,5 milioane de euro în 2010. Conform Asociaţiei de Ecoturism din România (AER), în jur de 80-90% din cheltuielile din ecoturism rămân în zonele în care se derulează programul turistic. Astfel majoritatea beneficiilor se văd pe plan local: cresc numărul de angajaţi şi economia. Câştigă şi statul dar câştigă mai ales privaţii: micile pensiuni, restaurantele, magazinele de suveniruri, artiştii locali, transportatorii, etc. O proiecţie pozitivă ar însemna aplicarea unui management de calitate al ariilor protejate şi realizarea de investiţii corecte, cu rezultate care să se vadă în timp. Specialiştii arată că beneficiul cumulativ, pe 25 de ani, pentru toate cele cinci arii pilot, ar fi de 2.794 de milioane de euro.\r\n\r\nMunţii Carpaţi formează o „punte“ între pădurile nordice şi cele din sudul şi vestul Europei şi, prin urmare, asigură un coridor vital pentru răspândirea plantelor şi animalelor în toată Europa. Avem acasă, în România, ultima regiune din Europa care adăposteşte populaţii longevive de carnivore, estimate la 8.000 de urşi bruni, 4.000 de lupi şi 3.000 de lincşi (raportat la anul 2009). Are turistul însă o hartă pentru Eden? Încă nu dar... e în gândire.\r\n\r\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU','Avem cele mai parfumate căpiţe de fân?, TENDINTE nr.120','','publish','open','open','','avem-cele-mai-parfumate-capite-de-fan-tendinte-nr-120','','','2014-05-14 00:08:43','2014-05-13 22:08:43','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2889',0,'post','',0),(2890,1,'2014-05-14 00:08:14','2014-05-13 22:08:14','','eden Cascada Rachitele PN Apuseni','','inherit','open','open','','eden-cascada-rachitele-pn-apuseni','','','2014-05-14 00:08:14','2014-05-13 22:08:14','',2889,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/eden-Cascada-Rachitele-PN-Apuseni.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2891,1,'2014-05-14 00:08:16','2014-05-13 22:08:16','','OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA','','inherit','open','open','','olympus-digital-camera-38','','','2014-05-14 00:08:16','2014-05-13 22:08:16','',2889,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/eden-P1010414.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2892,1,'2014-05-14 00:08:17','2014-05-13 22:08:17','','eden poiana-cu-narcise-flori','','inherit','open','open','','eden-poiana-cu-narcise-flori','','','2014-05-14 00:08:17','2014-05-13 22:08:17','',2889,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/eden-poiana-cu-narcise-flori.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2893,1,'2014-05-14 00:08:18','2014-05-13 22:08:18','','OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA','','inherit','open','open','','olympus-digital-camera-39','','','2014-05-14 00:08:18','2014-05-13 22:08:18','',2889,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/eden-Ro-munte.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2894,1,'2014-05-14 00:08:19','2014-05-13 22:08:19','','Eden Zimbru 229','','inherit','open','open','','eden-zimbru-229','','','2014-05-14 00:08:19','2014-05-13 22:08:19','',2889,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Eden-Zimbru-229.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2895,1,'2014-05-14 00:08:20','2014-05-13 22:08:20','','OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA','','inherit','open','open','','olympus-digital-camera-40','','','2014-05-14 00:08:20','2014-05-13 22:08:20','',2889,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/P1010351.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2896,1,'2014-05-14 00:08:21','2014-05-13 22:08:21','','OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA','','inherit','open','open','','olympus-digital-camera-41','','','2014-05-14 00:08:21','2014-05-13 22:08:21','',2889,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/P1010552.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2897,1,'2014-05-13 23:59:03','2014-05-13 21:59:03','CĂUTĂM GPS PENTRU EDEN!\n\nRomânia are în ultimii ani o campanie de promovare turistică ce te invită se descoperi o destinaţie cu un avantaj major: natura în plenitudinea ei.

Se porneşte la drum şi găseşte din ce în ce mai multe case mari, înghesuite la marginea drumului, în culori ţipătoare. Casele de lemn s-au cam vândut pe doi bani la italieni şi au ajuns prin afara României, meşteri mai sunt câţiva dar cerere locală...ioc. Natura e minunată, verdele acela crud, curat, moale îţi face sufletul să cânte. Dar zona suferă din ce în ce mai mult de ceea ce arată studiul citat: “acţiuni dăunătoare, printre care supra exploatarea resurselor forestiere prin defrişare şi braconaj, (...) degradarea şi fragmentarea habitatelor, cauzate de operaţiunile de construire a drumurilor şi caselor şi a infrastructurii turistice, care este concepută şi planificată necorespunzător.” În vacanţă, turistul care fuge de oraş nu vrea să vadă tot betoane!\n\nPe traseu cu bebe în cârcă\n\nParcul Zion, tot din Utrah, este un exemplu cum nu se poate mai bun de planificare şi eficienţă. La intrarea din sud este localitatea Springdale. O stradă cu clădiri cochete, cu spaţii verzi, plină de cafenele, magazinaşe diverse, galerii de artă şi locuinţe. Hotelurile au maxim 2 etaje şi majoritatea construcţiile au pereţii coloraţi în nuanţele pietrei muntelui. În Zion totul pare poleit cu cupru, lumina face muntele să ardă. În parc poţi merge cu un minitrenuleţ să admiri diversele forme ale stâncilor din mers, o aventură pentru comozi care durează cam o oră. Cele 6-7 trasee amenajate de urcă până la 2.000 metri altitudine. Iar amenajat înseamnă că potecile au frânghii şi opritori, trepte tăiate în piatră, băncuţe ici şi colo. Cascade, ochiuri de apă limpede, copaci şi, nu exagerăm, zeci de familii tinere pornite la drum cu echipament sportiv şi cu copii de nici un an, ancoraţi în spatele tatălui sau al mamei. Atât Springdale cât şi peisajul parcului amintesc cumva de Valea Prahovei, de Bucegi. Am făcut conexiunea probabil cu gândul la cum ar putea ajunge locaţiile româneşti, într-o proiecţie optimistă, în 25 de ani. Din Springdale un autobuz local transport turiştii la intrarea în parc, aici sunt casele de bilete, magazinul de suveniruri, centrul de informare (cu sală de proiecţii) – toate clădirile sunt făcute din lemn şi proiectate în aşa fel încât să nu deranjeze cu nimic peisajul.\n\nVrem mai mulți bani, trebuie investiți mai mult !\n\nParcul Naţional Piatra Craiului (14,774 hectare) include culoarele Rucăr-Bran şi Rucăr-Zărneşti. Pe teritoriul său trăiesc cam 30.000 de oameni şi s-ar putea lăuda cu cele 181 de specii rare de plante şi vieţuitoare din parc. Datorită Castelului Bran şi a zonei Moeciu este, poate, cel mai vizitat areal dintre parcurile amintite de studiu. Agroturismul, conservarea dar şi exploatarea tradiţiilor locale aduc momentan însă mulţi turişti rapizi, de week-end, care se opresc în zona Bran. Parcul are un singur centru pentru vizitatori, la Zărneşti. Accesul pe o săptâmână costă 7 lei, poţi plăti prin SMS căci şansele să depistezi trei automate albastre de bilete sunt, să zicem, mici. Zona Moeciu, atât de încărcată deja cu pesiuni şi complexe turistice, poartă de intrare în parc, nu are din păcate nici o facilitate care să atragă turistul spre mai departe - se precizează în același studiu finanțat de către GEF.\nProiectul arată că ariile protejate din Carpaţi sunt subfinanţate. Pentru cele cinci arii protejate aduse în discuţie a fost alocată suma de aproximativ 950.000 de euro în 2010, deşi se consideră că este nevoie de 1.600.000 de euro pentru acoperirea nevoilor de bază şi de 2.550.000 de euro pentru administrarea optimă a siturilor! Dar ca să ajungi la o administrare optimă trebuie întâi să ai o infrastructură optimă pentru ele. Munţii Carpaţi se întind pe o suprafaţă de 210.000 kilometri pătrați în Europa Centrală şi de Est, şi traversează şapte ţări: Republica Cehă, Ungaria, Polonia, România, Serbia, Slovacia şi Ucraina. Ei au fost incluşi de WWF în lista celor mai importante 200 de ecoregiuni din lume. Ei găzduiesc cele mai întinse suprafeţe de pădure montană, cele mai mari ecosisteme naturale montane intacte de păduri de fag şi de păduri mixte de fag şi brad şi cea mai mare suprafaţă de păduri virgine rămasă în Europa. România deţine 54% din lanţul carpatic.\n\nLa vânătoare de turiști\n\nReţeaua de Arii Naturale Protejate din Munţii Carpaţi (CNPA) este alcătuită din 285 de arii protejate (procetul de 17% din ecoregiune este, conform specialiştilor, foarte mic). Avem 22 de arii protejate majore, adică 12 parcuri naţionale şi 10 parcuri naturale. Studiul românesc arată că, nici la capitolele infrastructură şi posibilităţi de cazare, situaţia nu e... verde. În România există în jur de 200 de cabane de vânătoare administrate de RNP-Romsilva dintre care 120 în Carpaţi, dar numai 5 se găsesc în parcuri. Unităţile sunt subutilizate, nu sunt promovate şi nici administrate cu gândul la atragerea turiştilor. Accesul în ariile protejate este limitat deoarece s-au construit în acest scop puţine drumuri. Dacă totuși turistul ajunge în aria parcului nu are unde să se informeze. Pe lângă faptul că doar 4 din cele aproape 300 de parcuri carpatice au centre de vizitare (Retezat, Lunca Mureşului, Piatra Craiului şi Vânători Neamţ) ele sunt parțial funcționale, având dificultăţi de întreţinere.\n\nOchi albaştri versus Apus de soare\n\nParcul Naţional Retezat (38.138 hectare) a fost înfiinţat în 1935 şi este primul de acest gen din România. Localnicii îi spun „tărâmul fermecat, cu ochi albaştri” datorită comorilor lăsate aici de generoasa natură: 80 de lacuri şi tăuri care oglindesc cerul, unicate ale erei glaciare pe teritoriul ţării noastre. Accesul în parc costă, pe săptămână, 10 lei de persoană (nu contează numărul intrărilor). Din păcate în interiorul zonei protejate posibilităţile de cazare sunt limitate. În complexul turistic Pietrele, locul din care pot începe cele mai frumoase trasee, nu s-a mai investit din anii ’60.\n\nStudiul citat subliniază importanţa facilităţilor oferite posibililor clienţi dar şi a venirii în întâmpinarea dorinţelor acestora. Pentru turistul educat în călătorii calitate nu înseamnă numai curăţenie în hotel sau mâncare bună, clientul vrea când iese pe balcon să vadă un peisaj frumos, nu peretele vilei vecinului sau şoseaua. O cercetare făcută în Croaţia de către Institutul Turismului arată că vizitatorii sunt dispuşi să plătescă mai mult pentru hoteluri amplasate în zone de pădure şi că peisajul este un factor decisiv în alegerea hotelului. Cu cât sunt dispuşi să plătească mai mult? Cam cu 24 - 32%.\n\nSnow Canyon State Park este o locaţie mai puţin cunoscută în Utah. Nu are încă un centru pentru vizitatori, poţi intra fără să plăteşti. Există un drum asfaltat impecabil iar pe marginea sa sunt refugii, parcări şi zone de camping ori pic-nic, nepăzite dar cu apă curentă şi toalete. Atracţia locului este dată de combinaţia de culori şi forme dintre lava şi dunele de nisip... pietrificate. Administraţia parcului oferă trasee ghidate speciale printre care şi unul conceput pentru admiratul apusului de soare în parc. La o distanţă de 15-20 de minute de condus dezvoltatorii locali au deschis, în mijlocul unor pustietăţi aride, câteva complexe cu vile şi terenuri de golf, restaurante dar şi complexe de conferinţe. De oriunde ai privi către formaţiunile de lavă care, de la distanţă, arată ca nişte munţi, panorama este superbă. Cine nu ar vrea să iasă pe terasa micii sale vile, să admire câţiva arbuşti cu flori, iarba proaspăt stropită, şi peste zidurile arămii ale grădinii hotelului în care este cazat să privească liniştit, la o cafea de dimineaţă, cum soarele începe să lumineze munţii?\n\nE nevoie broşuri dar şi de oameni\n\nCathedral Gorge State Park este o altă zonă protejată mai puţin vizitată, în statul Nevada. Administraţia face eforturi pentru a face lumea să se oprească şi aici: au construit un centru pentru vizitatori, spații de cazare, au marcat kilometri întregi de trasee şi au publicat hărţi şi pliante cu toate păsările, şopârliţele şi musculiţele care s-ar putea vedea dacă nu ar fi prea cald în timpul zilei. Îngrijitorii parcului patrulează zilnic şi oferă tururi ghidate celor interesaţi. Spirele albe din praf vulcanic formează pereţi ca de catedrale gotice (de aici şi denumirea parcului). Se îngustează în canioane lungi, labirintice, de lăţimea unui om. Aventuroşii se târăsc pe burtă, prin praful alb, pentru a pătrunde în mici scobituri ale pereţilor, caută vieţuitoare şi... beau multă apă.\n\nAdministraţiile parcurilor carpatice oferă un număr limitat de tururi, lipsite de diversitate arată studiul românesc. Parcurile şi tururile nu sunt promovate suficient. În plus comunicarea este foarte slabă iar administraţiile deși au site-uri nu ştiu ce înseamnă marketing. Trebuie să înveţe lecţia materialelor promoţionale, a contactului cu operatorii turistici dar şi lecţia puterii cuvântului. Un om angajat pentru a promova parcul, o persoană care să vorbească tuturor şi oricui (dar în mod organizat) despre cel mai interesant parc natural din România. Realitatea în 2014 este că nu există nici măcar broşuri ale parcurilor iar publicarea unor hărţi ale habitatelor şi speciilor abia este la început.\n\nParcul Natural Vânători Neamţ ocupă 30.818 hectare şi a fost deschis în 1999. Pădurile de gorun, mânăstirile şi schiturile deja faimoase din apropierea oraşului Târgu Neamţ, monumentele istorice dar şi cei 21 de zimbri din areal, au făcut ca zona să fie una dintre cele mai vizitate dintre cele cinci parcuri pilot. Există 9 căi de acces iar Centrul de Vizitare Vânători Neamţ are şi un mini-hotel şi sală de conferinţe. Parcul Natural este sigurul loc din ţară în care zimbrul se întâlneşte în captivitate în cadrul Grădinii Zoologice din comuna Vânători (6 zimbri). Turiştii care s-au săturat de mânăstiri vin aici, petrec jumătate de oră privind animalele (sunt şi urşi, căprioare etc.) şi cam atât. Mai e ceva de muncă până la organizarea unor tururi cu maşini de teren prin rezervaţie şi cu posibilităţi de “foto-hunting” atât de la modă în alte ţări.\n\nÎn 25 de ani s-ar putea...\n\nÎn perspectiva negativă, conform căreia, modul actual de administrare a ariilor protejate nu se va schimba, economia României va pierde în următorii 25 de ani, numai ca venituri din turism, peste 2,6 miliarde de euro. Aici se adaugă şi distrugerea treptată a celorlalte surse de venit. Studiul arată că dacă exploatarea silvică va continua în ritmul actual, în 30 de ani povestea se va încheia prin dispariţia veniturilor (provocată de dispariţia lemnului). La capitolul agricultură zonele ar avea de suferit ireversibil din cauza îndepărtării comunităţilor locale de practicile tradiţionale. Într-o proiecţie negativă calitatea resurselor de apă va scădea. În jur de 70% dintre bazinele hidrografice din ariile protejate sunt împădurite, iar eroziunea solului este ţinută bine sub control, momentan. Posibila pierdere economică asociată cu dezasterele naturale (inundaţii şi alunecări de teren) este estimată de specialişti la 6% din PIB, ceea ce înseamnă aproximativ 2,3 miliarde de dolari pe an.\n\nValoarea activităţilor turistice şi recreative în cazul celor cinci parcuri era estimată la puţin peste 109,5 milioane de euro în 2010. Conform Asociaţiei de Ecoturism din România (AER), în jur de 80-90% din cheltuielile din ecoturism rămân în zonele în care se derulează programul turistic. Astfel majoritatea beneficiilor se văd pe plan local: cresc numărul de angajaţi şi economia. Câştigă şi statul dar câştigă mai ales privaţii: micile pensiuni, restaurantele, magazinele de suveniruri, artiştii locali, transportatorii, etc. O proiecţie pozitivă ar însemna aplicarea unui management de calitate al ariilor protejate şi realizarea de investiţii corecte, cu rezultate care să se vadă în timp. Specialiştii arată că beneficiul cumulativ, pe 25 de ani, pentru toate cele cinci arii pilot, ar fi de 2.794 de milioane de euro.\n\nMunţii Carpaţi formează o „punte“ între pădurile nordice şi cele din sudul şi vestul Europei şi, prin urmare, asigură un coridor vital pentru răspândirea plantelor şi animalelor în toată Europa. Avem acasă, în România, ultima regiune din Europa care adăposteşte populaţii longevive de carnivore, estimate la 8.000 de urşi bruni, 4.000 de lupi şi 3.000 de lincşi (raportat la anul 2009). Are turistul însă o hartă pentru Eden? Încă nu dar... e în gândire.\n\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU','Avem cele mai parfumate căpiţe de fân?, TENDINTE nr.120','','inherit','open','open','','2889-revision','','','2014-05-13 23:59:03','2014-05-13 21:59:03','',2889,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2014/05/13/2889-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2898,1,'2014-05-14 00:11:21','2014-05-13 22:11:21','De curând a fost anunțată lansarea pe piață a operatorului Fly Romania ce aparține companiei Ten Airways.

Nopţile scurte, petrecerile şi excesele nepermise acasă, îi făceau pe unii să se întoarcă mai obosiţi decât la plecare. O parte dintre cei ce astăzi merg în vacanţă, peste tot în lume, aleg locuri în care în primul rând să se relaxeze. Ei practică turismul de întreţinere, o piaţă în creştere rapidă.\r\n\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" ids=\"2904,2905,2906,2902\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\n\r\nUn studiu prezentat Congresul Global al Turismului de Întreţinere (Global Wellness Tourism Congress - GWTC) arată cu turismul de întreţinere aduce 14% din veniturile realizate de această industrie, la scară mondială, adică 1 dolar din 7, fiind o piaţă de 439 miliarde dolari. Segmentul reprezintă 6%, adică 524,4 milioane de vacanţe consumate anual. Studiul estimează că sectorul va creşte cu aproape 10% pe an şi va ajunge să genereze 16% din veniturile totale din turism în 2017, adică 678,5 miliarde dolari. Acest aspect arată că evoluţia turismului de întreţinere va fi cu 50% mai rapidă decât creşterea turismului în general.\r\n\r\nCum întreţinem starea de bine !\r\nÎn accepţiunea realizatorilor studiului turismul de întreţinere înseamnă orice vacanţă, călătorie, asociată cu dorinţa de a-ți menţine sau dobândi o bună condiţie fizică sau o stare de echilibru psihic.\r\nCategoria serviciilor de Spa este văzută ca o componentă a turismului de întreţinere. Astfel masajul, curele de nămol, ape minerale, balneoterapia etc., reprezintă doar 41% din piaţa serviciilor de întreţinere. Restul este compus din pachete de servicii care includ programe de fitness, lecţii de yoga dar şi călătorii în parcuri naturale ori rezervaţii. Retragerea la o mânăstire în munţi, la un ashram în India sau alegerea unor hoteluri şi restaurante care respectă principiile contemporane de ecologic, natural şi pur biologic sunt şi ele incluse în conceptul de turism de întreţinere şi reprezintă la ora actuală 59% din piaţă. Turistul vrea un complex hotelier care să ofere, pe lângă piscine şi săli de fitness, clase de aerobic, de relaxare, cursuri de dezvoltare personală ori cure de detoxifiere sub supravegherea unui nutriţionist ori medic.\r\n\r\nPlătesc mai mult pentru că merit mai mult !\r\nTuristul care pleacă în vacanţă ca să se ocupe de el, mental şi fizic, cheltuieşte în medie cu 130% mai mult decât cel obişnuit. Când pleacă în străinătate el tinde să cheltuiască 65% mai mult decât turistul obişnuit iar în propria ţară va plăti chiar şi cu 150% mai mult decât un turist obişnuit. Studiul face diferenţa, minuţioasă, între un turist care călătoreşte având ca prim scop să se întreţină și unul care include această secţiune într-un plan mai amplu de vacanţă. Clientul din prima categorie este cel de căutat şi de vânat deoarece va face cele mai mari cheltuieli. Cu toate acestea cel din a doua categorie reprezintă momentan 86% din totalul celor ce consumă servicii de întreţinere în vacanţă. Deci e cam devreme ca să fie neglijat în planurile de marketing.\r\n\r\nPiața internațională versus piața locală\r\nLa nivel global autorităţile tind să facă o greşeală. Ei pun accent doar pe turistul de incoming, care vine pentru întreţinere. Studiul arată că pieţele locale trebuie ţintite şi întreţinute deoarece procentul de clienţi din piaţa locală este mai mare decât cei ce vin dinalte ţări pentru aceleaşi servicii. Clientul autohton, la nivel global, reprezintă 84% din consumatorii de servicii în turismul de întreţinere şi generează 68% din sumele cheltuite (aproape 300 miliarde dolari), pe când turismul internaţional de întreţinere este o piaţă de doar 139 miliarde dolari, adică 32% din segment. Pentru moment statele Europei şi ale Americii de Nord domină sectorul dar specialişii arată că în 2017 peste 50% din piaţă o vor reprezenta clienţii din Asia, America Latină, Orientul Mijlociu şi Africa de Nord.\r\n\r\nDar cum arată portretul robot al turistului pe care se bat destinațiile turistice? În primul rând este bine educat și are o bună situaţie financiară. E de vârstă mijlocie şi provine din ţări industrializate, cu o economie stabilă. Datele reflectă că 63% din clienţii serviciilor de întreţinere, la nivel global, vin din S.U.A, Germania, Japonia, Franţa şi Austria. La rândul lor S.U.A, Germania, Japonia, China şi Franţa sunt ţările cu cei mai mulţi conaţionali care cumpără pachete turistice de servicii de întreţinere în ţara lor.\r\n\r\n“Turismul de întreţinere va remodela conceptul de turism, aşa cum îl înţelegem acum.

Nopţile scurte, petrecerile şi excesele nepermise acasă, îi făceau pe unii să se întoarcă mai obosiţi decât la plecare. O parte dintre cei ce astăzi merg în vacanţă, peste tot în lume, aleg locuri în care în primul rând să se relaxeze. Ei practică turismul de întreţinere, o piaţă în creştere rapidă.\n\nUn studiu prezentat Congresul Global al Turismului de Întreţinere (Global Wellness Tourism Congress - GWTC) arată cu turismul de întreţinere aduce 14% din veniturile realizate de această industrie, la scară mondială, adică 1 dolar din 7, fiind o piaţă de 439 miliarde dolari. Segmentul reprezintă 6%, adică 524,4 milioane de vacanţe consumate anual. Studiul estimează că sectorul va creşte cu aproape 10% pe an şi va ajunge să genereze 16% din veniturile totale din turism în 2017, adică 678,5 miliarde dolari. Acest aspect arată că evoluţia turismului de întreţinere va fi cu 50% mai rapidă decât creşterea turismului în general.\n\nCum întreţinem starea de bine !\nÎn accepţiunea realizatorilor studiului turismul de întreţinere înseamnă orice vacanţă, călătorie, asociată cu dorinţa de a-ți menţine sau dobândi o bună condiţie fizică sau o stare de echilibru psihic.\nCategoria serviciilor de Spa este văzută ca o componentă a turismului de întreţinere. Astfel masajul, curele de nămol, ape minerale, balneoterapia etc., reprezintă doar 41% din piaţa serviciilor de întreţinere. Restul este compus din pachete de servicii care includ programe de fitness, lecţii de yoga dar şi călătorii în parcuri naturale ori rezervaţii. Retragerea la o mânăstire în munţi, la un ashram în India sau alegerea unor hoteluri şi restaurante care respectă principiile contemporane de ecologic, natural şi pur biologic sunt şi ele incluse în conceptul de turism de întreţinere şi reprezintă la ora actuală 59% din piaţă. Turistul vrea un complex hotelier care să ofere, pe lângă piscine şi săli de fitness, clase de aerobic, de relaxare, cursuri de dezvoltare personală ori cure de detoxifiere sub supravegherea unui nutriţionist ori medic.\n\nPlătesc mai mult pentru că merit mai mult !\nTuristul care pleacă în vacanţă ca să se ocupe de el, mental şi fizic, cheltuieşte în medie cu 130% mai mult decât cel obişnuit. Când pleacă în străinătate el tinde să cheltuiască 65% mai mult decât turistul obişnuit iar în propria ţară va plăti chiar şi cu 150% mai mult decât un turist obişnuit. Studiul face diferenţa, minuţioasă, între un turist care călătoreşte având ca prim scop să se întreţină și unul care include această secţiune într-un plan mai amplu de vacanţă. Clientul din prima categorie este cel de căutat şi de vânat deoarece va face cele mai mari cheltuieli. Cu toate acestea cel din a doua categorie reprezintă momentan 86% din totalul celor ce consumă servicii de întreţinere în vacanţă. Deci e cam devreme ca să fie neglijat în planurile de marketing.\n\nPiața internațională versus piața locală\nLa nivel global autorităţile tind să facă o greşeală. Ei pun accent doar pe turistul de incoming, care vine pentru întreţinere. Studiul arată că pieţele locale trebuie ţintite şi întreţinute deoarece procentul de clienţi din piaţa locală este mai mare decât cei ce vin dinalte ţări pentru aceleaşi servicii. Clientul autohton, la nivel global, reprezintă 84% din consumatorii de servicii în turismul de întreţinere şi generează 68% din sumele cheltuite (aproape 300 miliarde dolari), pe când turismul internaţional de întreţinere este o piaţă de doar 139 miliarde dolari, adică 32% din segment. Pentru moment statele Europei şi ale Americii de Nord domină sectorul dar specialişii arată că în 2017 peste 50% din piaţă o vor reprezenta clienţii din Asia, America Latină, Orientul Mijlociu şi Africa de Nord.\n\nDar cum arată portretul robot al turistului pe care se bat destinațiile turistice? În primul rând este bine educat și are o bună situaţie financiară. E de vârstă mijlocie şi provine din ţări industrializate, cu o economie stabilă. Datele reflectă că 63% din clienţii serviciilor de întreţinere, la nivel global, vin din S.U.A, Germania, Japonia, Franţa şi Austria. La rândul lor S.U.A, Germania, Japonia, China şi Franţa sunt ţările cu cei mai mulţi conaţionali care cumpără pachete turistice de servicii de întreţinere în ţara lor.\n\n“Turismul de întreţinere va remodela conceptul de turism, aşa cum îl înţelegem acum. Sunt atât de multe aspecte ale secolului 21 care aduc schimbarea, încluzând îmbătrânirea populației, creşterea numărului de boli cronice şi nivelul de stres fără precedent al vieţii moderne”- afirma Jean-Claude Baumgarten, fost preşedinte al Organizaţiei Mondiale a Turismului, în timpul conferinței susținute la GSWS.

Starting with 22 March, the 30-day visa can be obtained free of charge, directly on the airport. Tourists only have to pay for extension over this period of time. According to the foregoing authority, 13 EU Member States benefit from this measure. Besides our country, visa-on-arrival in the Emirates can also be obtained by tourists coming from Bulgaria, Poland, Slovenia, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Lithuania, Hungary, Latvia, Estonia, Malta, Cyprus and Croatia. Thus, the citizen from all the 28 EU countries can visit the United Arab Emirates under the same conditions of obtaining the tourist visa.\n\nHILTON comes with Hampton\n\nThe Hilton international chain has concluded an agreement with Europa Hotel in Iasi, with a 4-star rating, which, after being refurbished, will take over the brand Hampton by Hilton. The Europa Hotel is located within the World Trade Center from Iasi. Hampton by Hilton Iasi will open in the second half of 2014, after the complete process of renewal of the 15-floor building of the former Europa Hotel. The hotel will have 123 rooms.\nAnother hotel managed under the brand Hampton by Hilton will open in Brasov. It will have a structure of 11 floors and 159 rooms with double beds, rooms for disabled persons, etc. The hotel is included in a real estate project from the Hidromecanica Industrial Area.

A Spa Center will be opened in Predeal, which will include saunas, pools, an aqua park and gyms. It will also include relaxing areas, saunas, steam baths, an ice cave, pools, an aqua park, squash fields, a solar, and gyms for fitness, spinning, cardio, and aerobic. Green areas and playgrounds for children will be also built. It is estimated that the project will increase the number of tourists with about 15% and will create 35 new jobs in the city. The building of the Spa Center will be completed in 2015.\n\nPark Inn from Bucharest\n\nThe shareholders of the Bucuresti Turism Company, the owner of Radisson Blu Hotel and of the Centre Ville Center from the capital city have decided to transform about 165 of the apartments from Centre Ville into a special accommodation unit.

They are estimated to be around 2.7 million euro.\n\nBRASOV has been the most visited location by foreign tourists\n\nAccording to the data provided by the National Statistics Institute (INS), in 2013, Brasov has been the most visited city in Romania by foreign tourists. In its turn, Brasov County has received last year over 122,000 foreign tourists. Timis County runs the second with about 80,000 foreign visitors, then come Sibiu County, with over 73,000, and Mures County, with over 65,000 foreign visitors, respectively.\n\n\nBUSINESS INSIDER – Romania is a very convenient holiday destination!\n\nThe Online Edition of the Business Insider Magazine has provided a Top list of the cheapest holiday destinations in Europe. The tourists who wish a spectacular holiday, but who do not have a big budget are advised by the Business Insider reporters to choose the Eastern European countries. Romania competes against Bulgaria for the first 8 cheapest European destinations. “If you wish a holiday full of adventure at half the price of a Western European destination, Romania is the perfect choice.

O proiectie de filme a fost urmata de o dezbatere despre provocarile cu care se confrunta Delta Dunarii precum si despre posibile solutii pentru pastrarea si promovarea acestui patrimoniu natural unic in Europa. De asemenea la Berlaymont, Galeria Presedintilor a fost vernisata expozitia de afise intitulata „O sansa Dunarii Albastre\". ARBDD in parteneriat cu Liceul de Arta „George Georgescu” din Tulcea, cu participarea unor licee de arta din tarile riverane Dunarii, organizeaza de 15 ani, un concurs de afise ce ofera tinerilor artisti posibilitatea de a deveni promotori ai conservarii Dunarii si Deltei Dunarii. De asemenea, Asociatia „Ivan Patzaichin - Mila 23” a participat cu o serie fotografii din Delta Dunarii, ale apreciatului fotograf Dragos Lumpan si cu un montaj audio-vizual despre Delta Dunarii, flora, fauna si sunetele ei. „O dezvoltare reala, durabila, trebuie sa se bazeze pe punerea in valoare a resurselor locale, a naturii, a traditiilor gastronomice, a patrimoniului cultural, a oamenilor locului. Initiative de promovare a antreprenorialului social, precum cele ale lui Ivan Patzaichin, arata ca turismul lent si ecoturismul au un viitor viabil in România” - a declarat Comisarul european pentru Agricultura si dezvoltare rurala, Dacian Ciolos.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/Ev-UE-Delta-jurilovca.jpg\" "\\"Ev")

Intrarea costa 15 euro iar o linie speciala de autobuz uneste aeroportul din Amsterdam cu Lisse, distanta fiind de doar 30 kilometri. Ai nevoie de cel putin patru ore pentru o vizita iar o zi petrecuta aici trece foarte repede. Parcul se întinde pe 32 de hectare. În interior sunt câteva restaurante, magazine de suveniruri dar si de bulbi, si contra unei sume aditionale poti vizita o moara veche de vreo suta de ani.\r\n\r\nTe poti plimba cu barca pe canalele dimprejurul câmpurilor de flori, cu bicicleta, sau pe jos, pe 15 kilometri de drumuri amenajate special. O curiozitate este mica gradina istorica în care puteti admira varietati rare de lalele si diverse alte plante. Ea este organizata dupa modelul celei create de Carolus Clusius, cel care a adus primele lalele în Olanda în 1592. Daca mai toate florile din parc sunt înalte, cu petale mari si atrag vizual, sortimentele de aici, cele originale, sunt mici, delicate si par chiar neatractive prin comparatie.\r\n\r\nKeukenhof, una dintre cele mai vizitate gradini ale Europei, este deschisa doua luni pe an pentru iubitorii de frumos. E un altfel de muzeu, un palat al culorilor delicate si al parfumurilor discrete si, trecând la partea practica a subiectului, asigura 25% din veniturile realizate din turism ale Olandei.

Intrarea costa 15 euro iar o linie speciala de autobuz uneste aeroportul din Amsterdam cu Lisse, distanta fiind de doar 30 kilometri. Ai nevoie de cel putin patru ore pentru o vizita iar o zi petrecuta aici trece foarte repede. Parcul se întinde pe 32 de hectare. În interior sunt câteva restaurante, magazine de suveniruri dar si de bulbi, si contra unei sume aditionale poti vizita o moara veche de vreo suta de ani.\n\nTe poti plimba cu barca pe canalele dimprejurul câmpurilor de flori, cu bicicleta, sau pe jos, pe 15 kilometri de drumuri amenajate special. O curiozitate este mica gradina istorica în care puteti admira varietati rare de lalele si diverse alte plante. Ea este organizata dupa modelul celei create de Carolus Clusius, cel care a adus primele lalele în Olanda în 1592. Daca mai toate florile din parc sunt înalte, cu petale mari si atrag vizual, sortimentele de aici, cele originale, sunt mici, delicate si par chiar neatractive prin comparatie.\n\nKeukenhof, una dintre cele mai vizitate gradini ale Europei, este deschisa doua luni pe an pentru iubitorii de frumos. E un altfel de muzeu, un palat al culorilor delicate si al parfumurilor discrete si, trecând la partea practica a subiectului, asigura 25% din veniturile realizate din turism ale Olandei.

Noi i-am îndepărtat. I-am disprețuit. Iar ostilitatea ne-a fost răsplătită cu vârf și îndesat. Am visat la cai verzi pe pereți. La milioane de turiști străini care urmau să se înghesuie la intrările din restaurantele românești. La milionarii autohtoni care urmau să ne ceară favoruri, chiar să ne cadă în genunchi, pentru o masă liberă în localul nostru. Cu siguranță, așa am crezut noi că va fi. Până prin 2008 când a început criza. Și am căzut din pat. Atunci ne-am lovit foarte rău și ne-a durut căzătura. Lăsam la o parte criza care ne-am fugărit clienții din restaurante.\r\n\r\nUnii au crezut că așa ceva nu se poate întâmpla și au visat mai departe. Până s-au întâlnit cu Fata Morgana a falimentului. Visele nu costă bani. E adevărat, cum tot atât de adevărat este că restaurante fără clienți nu există. Sau există, dar au devenit muzee. Acum plătim cu localurile aproape goale. Ne-am alungat clienții cu adaosuri comerciale cu trei și două zerouri, că deh, așa eram obișnuiți. Cui nu-i place să stea acasă - așa gândeam pe atunci. Acum plătim și pentru asta. I-am disprețuit pe clienții modești, care la o consumație ne lăsau totuși un profit, acolo, de 5-10 lei.\r\n\r\nBacșișul ajunsese ceva simbolic. Dar deseori era de o pâine albă. Cei care și-au dat seama s-au trezit la realitate. Disprețul, și nu veniturile din ce în ce mai modeste, i-a îndepărtat pe consumatori de restaurante. Ei și-au dat seama că prețul disprețului va fi mult mai mare. Și pe termen lung. Cum să-i mai scoți pe oameni din casă! Când și-au pierdut reflexul de a consuma. Încet, încet s-a stins dorința de a mai veni să se simtă bine cu prietenii, colegii, familia, iubita, amanta etc. Plătim cu vârf și îndesat azi pentru atitudinea pe care am afișat-o în ultimii 20 ani față de micul consumator. Unii și-au reconsiderat poziția, au început să alerge, să-i curteze cu o atitudine binevoitoare, curtenitoare, ospitalieră.\r\n\r\nPublicitatea și promovarea se repun în discuție mai târziu. Cine va ști să-i readucă la masă pe clienții cu venituri medii ori modeste - meniuri lejere cu prețuri pe măsură, acela va supraviețui. Căci despre asta vorbim acum - îmi spunea un om ce a trăit experiențe de suflet prin restaurantele bucureștene. Pentru acest exercițiu de sinceritate și luciditate îl îmbrățișez în numele meu și, dacă îmi dați voie, și al dumneavoastră.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Restaurantele - unde e Fata Morgana?, EDITORIAL nr.122','','publish','open','open','','restaurantele-unde-e-fata-morgana-editorial-nr-122','','','2014-08-13 13:03:47','2014-08-13 11:03:47','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=2976',0,'post','',0),(2955,1,'2014-07-05 15:38:57','2014-07-05 13:38:57','Bucurestiul a gazduit manifestare reprezentativa pentru industria hoteliera care a ajuns la cea de-a 8 editie.

\r\n\r\nAm avea o eficienta mult mai mare în promovare daca i-am invita partenerii straini la Workshopuri tematice în România, iar dupa aceea sa ne vada asa cum suntem la noi acasa - balcanici, tristi ori tonici, bautori rafinati de cola, bere dar si de sampanie, muzicali, dansanti, gurmanzi, rai, eleganti, frumosi, uschiti si cu pofta nesecata de nicio întâmplare istorica, de a da cu... Sâc din Isarlîk. N-am inventat nici de data asta nimic, pentru ca mai toate tarile cu pretentii turistice procedeaza asa.\r\n|\r\nCum lucrurile se urnesc greu cu caruta birocratiei, la care politica a furat pâna si mânzul din spatele ei, pare ca toate industria noastra turistica se multumeste cu PPC. Nu e un concept nou, nu e nici toxic dar nu e nici profitabil. PPC multumeste la o adica agentiile de turism ca tot e mai bun ceva decât nimic. PPC pare sa fie confortabil si pentru hotelieri care si la 25-30% grad de ocupare, cârpesc cu talent bugetul de încasari cu evenimente, nunti, botezuri, activitati corporate.\r\n\r\nCe-i drept, mai putine în ultima vreme, dar asta-i situatia. PPC, desi e îngrozitor de trist, multumeste si organizatorii de evenimente care n-au mai adus la Bucuresti o conferinta de 3-4.000 de persoane de pe vremea Reuniunilor NATO ori a Uniunii Postale Universale. Dar PPC convine confortabil si liderilor din turism, fie ei ministri, fie ei presedinti de asociatii profesionale. În urma cu ani de zile credem ca PPC îsi va da curând, obstescul sfârsit. Se vede ca m-am înselat. El se hraneste bine din saracia prezentului si sta cu mâna întinsa la viitor. Cum adica, nu stiti de conceptul PPC? El se exprima cu generozitate prin aceste 3 cuvinte - Poate Pica Ceva. \r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nDoriţi să citiţi toată revista?

Juriul Federaţiei Internaţionale a Jurnaliştilor şi Editorilor de Turism (FIJET) a decis luna trecută ca prestigiosul premiu să recompenseze, în 2014, trei obiective turistice “ale căror comunităţi contribuie la dezvoltarea şi promovarea pe plan naţional şi internaţional a valorilor turismului” – se subliniază în scrisoarea adresată Conducerii Clubului Presei de Turism – FIJET ROMÂNIA. Alături de “Axa Brîncuşi” din Târgu Jiu, vor mai primi această distincţie Peştera Postojna din Slovenia şi oraşul antic Byblos din Liban – ne-a informat Tijani HADDAD, preşedintele FIJET.\r\n\r\nAcesta va fi al 5-lea trofeu Golden Apple ce va recompensa turismul românesc. Obținerea lui este rezultatul unei munci asidue, de mai bine de 3 ani, a FIJET România, susținută în parteneriat cu Asociația Profesională Patronală de Turism Gorj (condusă de Laura Dragu Popescu) și Autoritatea Națională pentru Turism. Primul a fost acordat în 1975, atracţiilor turistice din Bucovina. Următoarele trei au fost decernate, în 2009, zonei ecoturistice Mărginimea Sibiului, Rezervaţiei Biosferei Delta Dunării, respectiv companiei aeriene Blue Air - a precizat Marian Constantinescu, președintele Clubului Presei de Turism - FIJET România.\r\n\r\nION BADEA\r\n\r\nFLORIN JIANU: ”Turismul are nevoie de facilități fiscale!”\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/evenimente122-2.jpg\" "\\"evenimente122-2\\"")

LITORALUL E PENTRU TOȚI!\r\n\r\nEdiția de primăvară 2014 a programului ”Litoralul pentru Toți” a debutat pe pe 5 mai și se va încheia pe 15 iunie - au anunțat organizatorii acesteia. Liderii Asociației Litoral-Delta Dunării (A.L.D.D.), Federației Patronatelor din Turismul Romanesc (F.P.T.R.) și ai Asociației Naționale a Agențiilor de Turism (A.N.A.T.) au subliniat că tarifele maximale au rămas la același nivel cu cele din ediție septembrie-octombrie 2013.\r\n\r\nAstfel turiștii vor putea beneficia de tarife începând de la 159 lei de persoană (6 nopți, hotel de 1 stea, fără mic dejun), și pot ajunge la 605 lei, (la hotelurile de 5 stele, în condiții similare, dar cu mic dejun inclus). Ca și la ediția precedentă există și oferte All Inclusive unde tarifele meximale pentru sejururi de 5 nopți de persoană, variază de la 765 lei (hotel 3 stele), până la 985 lei (hotel 5 stele). În program sunt înscrise peste 40 de hoteluri ce oferă circa 5.400 de locuri pe serie.\r\n\r\nVOM AVEA UN MUZEU SUBACVATIC ÎN MAREA NEAGRĂ?\r\nOamenii de știință români și bulgari au conceput un proiect comun ce va fi susținut de ambele țări. El are în vedere crearea unui muzeu subacvatic în Marea Neagră și își propune investigarea patrimoniului cultural pe platoul de vest al Mării Negre, de la Dunăre până la Capul Kaliakra. Atanas Palazov, directorul Institutului de Oceanologie de pe lângă Academia Bulgară de Științe, a declarat că unul dintre scopuri este crearea unui produs turistic care să permită vizitarea unor orașe, porturi și epavele unor nave scufundate. Nimic din ceea ce va fi descoperit nu va fi scos la suprafață, toate vestigiile urmând să se constituie în patrimoniul viitorului muzeu subacvatic. După materializarea proiectului cercetătorii se așteaptă ca agențiile de turism să organizeze programe pentru scafandri amatori.\r\n\r\nPRODUCȚIA NAȚIONALĂ DE VIN A FOST MAI MARE CU 30% \r\n\r\nAnul trecut cam așa au stat lucrurile. Evaluarea aparține lui Ovidiu Gheorghe, directorul general al Patronatului Național al Viei și Vinului (PNVV). El a arătat că și cantitatea destinată autoconsumului a fost mai mare, ceea ce a determinat o cerere mai temperată pentru vinul comercializat. Conform evaluărilor organizației din care face parte ”în prezent piața vinului din țara noastră se ridică la circa 300 de milioane de euro, fără importuri. Anterior crizei (2008), valoarea vinului produs la noi se ridica la circa 500 de milioane de euro. Trebuie să punctez un alt lucru foarte important. Din valoarea actuală a producției naționale de vin doar circa 60% reprezintă piața fiscalizată”:\r\n\r\nDOUĂ EXPOZIȚII REMARCABILE \r\n\r\nPrima a avut ca tematică ”Sfinţi Voievozi în icoana ortodoxă” și a fost deschisă până pe 17 mai în Pivnițele Cantacuzine ale Muzeului. 2014 a fost declarat de către Sfântul Sinod al Bisericii Ortodoxe Române drept anul comemorativ al Sfinţilor Martiri Brâncoveni. Printre participanţii la simpozion s-au numărat: prof. univ. dr.

El a fost vicepreședinte iar azi este președintele Corps Touristique Austria, un club select ce reunește birourile de turism naționale și internaționale ce-și dezvoltă activitățile de promovare în și de pe piața austriacă.\r\n\r\nION BADEA\r\n\r\n NU STAȚI PE GÂNDURI. LITORALUL E PENTRU TOȚI!\r\n\r\nEdiția de primăvară 2014 a programului ”Litoralul pentru Toți” a debutat pe pe 5 mai și se va încheia pe 15 iunie - au anunțat organizatorii acesteia. Liderii Asociației Litoral-Delta Dunării (A.L.D.D.), Federației Patronatelor din Turismul Romanesc (F.P.T.R.) și ai Asociației Naționale a Agențiilor de Turism (A.N.A.T.) au subliniat că tarifele maximale au rămas la același nivel cu cele din ediție septembrie-octombrie 2013.\r\n\r\nAstfel turiștii vor putea beneficia de tarife începând de la 159 lei de persoană (6 nopți, hotel de 1 stea, fără mic dejun), și pot ajunge la 605 lei, (la hotelurile de 5 stele, în condiții similare, dar cu mic dejun inclus). Ca și la ediția precedentă există și oferte All Inclusive unde tarifele meximale pentru sejururi de 5 nopți de persoană, variază de la 765 lei (hotel 3 stele), până la 985 lei (hotel 5 stele). În program sunt înscrise peste 40 de hoteluri ce oferă circa 5.400 de locuri pe serie.\r\n\r\nVOM AVEA UN MUZEU SUBACVATIC ÎN MAREA NEAGRĂ?\r\nOamenii de știință români și bulgari au conceput un proiect comun ce va fi susținut de ambele țări. El are în vedere crearea unui muzeu subacvatic în Marea Neagră și își propune investigarea patrimoniului cultural pe platoul de vest al Mării Negre, de la Dunăre până la Capul Kaliakra. Atanas Palazov, directorul Institutului de Oceanologie de pe lângă Academia Bulgară de Științe, a declarat că unul dintre scopuri este crearea unui produs turistic care să permită vizitarea unor orașe, porturi și epavele unor nave scufundate. Nimic din ceea ce va fi descoperit nu va fi scos la suprafață, toate vestigiile urmând să se constituie în patrimoniul viitorului muzeu subacvatic. După materializarea proiectului cercetătorii se așteaptă ca agențiile de turism să organizeze programe pentru scafandri amatori.\r\n\r\nPRODUCȚIA NAȚIONALĂ DE VIN A FOST MAI MARE CU 30% \r\n\r\nAnul trecut cam așa au stat lucrurile. Evaluarea aparține lui Ovidiu Gheorghe, directorul general al Patronatului Național al Viei și Vinului (PNVV). El a arătat că și cantitatea destinată autoconsumului a fost mai mare, ceea ce a determinat o cerere mai temperată pentru vinul comercializat. Conform evaluărilor organizației din care face parte ”în prezent piața vinului din țara noastră se ridică la circa 300 de milioane de euro, fără importuri. Anterior crizei (2008), valoarea vinului produs la noi se ridica la circa 500 de milioane de euro. Trebuie să punctez un alt lucru foarte important. Din valoarea actuală a producției naționale de vin doar circa 60% reprezintă piața fiscalizată”:\r\n\r\nDOUĂ EXPOZIȚII REMARCABILE \r\n\r\nPrima a avut ca tematică ”Sfinţi Voievozi în icoana ortodoxă” și a fost deschisă până pe 17 mai în Pivnițele Cantacuzine ale Muzeului. 2014 a fost declarat de către Sfântul Sinod al Bisericii Ortodoxe Române drept anul comemorativ al Sfinţilor Martiri Brâncoveni. Printre participanţii la simpozion s-au numărat: prof. univ. dr. Giorgios Kordis, Facultatea de Teologie a Universităţii din Atena, Grecia; Lector Dr. Todor Mitrovic, Academia Ortodoxă a Bisericii Sârbe pentru Arte şi Restaurare din Belgrad, Serbia; Pr.

Haralambie, Sfânta Mare Mănăstire Vatopedi, Sfântul Munte Athos, Grecia etc.\r\n\r\nO altă expoziție, deschisă până pe 20 mai, a pus în valoare ”Portretul în pictura românească din colecţii particulare”. Organizată în colaborare cu Societatea Colecţionarilor de Artă din România, expoziţia a cuprins circa 200 de lucrări din 50 de colecţii particulare. Ele poartă semnătura lui Ion Negulici, Mişu Popp, Theodor Aman, Nicolae Grigorescu, Ştefan Luchian, Gheorghe Petraşcu, Nicolae Dărăscu, Henri Catargi etc.Traveller Magazin a fost Partener Media al ambelor evenimente.','“Axa Brâncusi” din Târgu Jiu va primi Golden Apple, EVENIMENTE nr. 122','','inherit','open','open','','2990-revision-2','','','2014-08-13 23:37:01','2014-08-13 21:37:01','',2990,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2014/08/13/2990-revision-2/',0,'revision','',0),(2998,1,'2014-08-13 23:42:50','2014-08-13 21:42:50','Bucureștiul a devenit primul oraș-capitală din lume care a fost distins cu titlul de „Oraș al Păcii” de către prestigiosul Institul Internațional al Păcii prin Turism (IIPT) și Skal International, cea mai mare organizație a profesioniștilor din turism din întreaga lume.

\r\n\r\nÎn colierul său turistic Tunisia ascunde o perlă, ce va completa atracțiile naționale ale viitorilor ani - Insula Djerba. Vreți să trăiți o experiență unică? Lăsați prejudecățile acasă. Nu seamnănă cu niciun oraș, nu e nici deșert, e mai degrabă o oază. A ospitalității. De la bun început te frapează căldura oamenilor. Ți se adresează simplu, cu amabilitate, își oferă informațiile cerute și, lucru important pentru turistul internațional, comercianții de suveniruri nu sunt insistenți până la agresivitate, dacă vrei să cumperi sau nu, câte ceva. Se lasă mai greu la preț, dar asta face parte din arta... negocierii.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/mapamond122-93.jpg\" "\\"mapamond122-9\\"")
\r\n\r\nPitorescul străzilor este patriarhal romantic, iar aici la Djerba, spațiul este romantic nealterat de ororile arhitecturii moderniste. Albul și albastrul domină așezările din Djerba, ca de altfel multe localități tunisiene. Aici cele două culori sunt puse în valoare - în stil ”grecesc”, fiind subliniat de culoarea albastru-turcoaz al apei mării și auriul nisipului împrăștiat pe plajele sălbatice. Parcă te-ai reîntors la începutul lumii. Tinerii nu vor să te contrazică, dar din când în când trec pe lângă tine, ambalând scuterele parcă pentru a te trezi la realitate. Bicicletele sunt ”specialitatea” celor maturi.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/mapamond122-163.jpg\" "\\"mapamond122-16\\"")
\r\n\r\nULISE ȘI LOTUȘII\r\n\r\nCum era de așteptat Djerba sau Jerba este un spațiu al poveștilor. Până aici faci, de la Tunis, cam o oră cu avionul și asta reprezintă o facilitate demnă de luat în seamă. Semn că turiștii trag de mult pe această insulă ( în stațiunea turistică există numeroase hoteluri internaționale de la Radisson Blu până la Riu), este Aeroportul. El a fost modernizat recent. Legenda spune că pe acest tărâm, aflată la doar 80 de kilometri de Sicilia ar fi debarcat celebrul Ulise care este un fel de naș. E a botezat insula drept ”Tărâmul mâncătorilor de lotus”. Frumos nu? Pare că talentul poetic al lui Ulise nu prea a fost analizat până acum. Nu mărimea insulei impresionează ci diversitatea tradițiilor ori a atracțiilor turistice. Digul rutier El Kantara, construit de către romani în perioada de înflorire a Cartaginei, a rezistat până în 1551 când a fost distrus de către Dragut, un temut pirat turc. A fost reconstruit abia în 1953, și a valorificat în noua sa structură vestigii ale digului original.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/mapamond122-63.jpg\" "\\"mapamond122-6\\"")
\r\n\r\nLA LICITAȚII DE PEȘTE\r\n\r\nPentru experiențe multicolore trebuie să vă alocați măcar o jumătate de zi pentru a intra în tunelul timpului ce vi se dezvăluie la Houmt Souk, capitala insulei Djerba. Veți avea în față spectacolul lumii, în cea mai mare piață a acestei insule magice. Pentru a savura momentele licitației în Piața de de pește, trebuie să vă sculați dimineață. Pentru că aici peștele nu se ține la congelator, ci se vinde proaspăt pentru consumul de peste zi. E o întreagă regie, cu un staroste suit pe un tron de unde închide tranzacțiile la cel mai bun preț oferit de client. Ca pe vremea copilăriei noastre prin Obor, Matache. Așa era și cu halvaua, care aici încă mai este o operă de artă decorată cu feliuțe de fistic, alune și tot felul de semințe colorate. La fel de magnetic este spectacolul condimentelor (să nu ratați o degustare de sex vitamin, deh o altă legendă care vinde), al ceramicii, al străzii, al cafelei, al fructelor, al legumelor, al reclamelor. Ele au fost pictate prin anii coloniali, iar azi par că sunt retușate în fiecare sezon turistic. Textilele, piesele de pielărie și marochinărie, sunt produse în Tunisia, iar semnele invaziei mărfurilor chinezești încă nu au apărut. Pe fiecare din străduțele înguste e câte ceva de cumpărat, iar culorile metrajelor, pantofilor, al galabiilor, al covoarelor asortate cu ceramica autohtonă, te invită să faci sute de fotografii dar și să bagi mâna în buzunar. Pentru o suvenire, pentru un cadou. Spectacolul lumii merge mai departe.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/mapamond122-113.jpg\" "\\"mapamond122-11\\"")
\r\n\r\nHA DI ȘI CĂMILA MAGICĂ\r\n\r\nAșa am ajuns la Guellala. Este cel mai faimos centru artizanal pentru vase de lut. Un fel de Horezu al nostru, pe vremurile lui de glorie, în care meșterii populari însoțeau fiecare piesă cu o poveste. Străzile sunt pline de magazine, care expun cea mai colorată și frumoasă ceramică tunisiană. Vase mici, vase mari, care sunt folosite zilnic în gospodării, amintesc de o istorie cu rădăcini adânci.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/mapamond122-83.jpg\" "\\"mapamond122-8\\"")
\r\n\r\nPământul se leagă bine aici, iar talentul meșterilor face ca banul să se înmulțească și să creeze prosperitate. Cu cât vin mai mulți turiști, cu atât crește numărul demonstrațiilor live, dar mai ales cu ulciorul în formă de Cămilă magică, care se poate umple și goli pe mai multe părți în funcție de dexteritatea meșterului. Apropo, știați că tunisienii au peste o sută de denumiri pentru acest emblematic animal. Ha Di se trage dintr-o veche familie de olari.\r\n\r\nȘi-a construit un centru meșteșugăresc care merită a fi inclus în Guiness Book. Zidurile, structura de rezistență și tavanul sunt făcute numai din obiecte ceramice cești, farfurii, vase de diferite dimensiuni, animale în miniatură care asigura decorarea pereților. În total, ne spune Ha Di -, în această veritabilă Casă a Olarului pe care a construit-o timp de cinci ani, au fost încorporate 3.000 de căni și 2.000 de alte obiecte decorative. În principal îl vizitează turiști italieni, francezi, germani, și acum, iată, români. Dacă vreți ceva să vă aducă aminte de Djerba, căutați farfuriile decărate cu pești stilizați, simbolul clasic al ceramicii locale.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/mapamond122-73.jpg\" "\\"mapamond122-7\\"")
\r\n\r\nEle amintesc de principala îndeletnicire a localnicilor. Sau felinarele dantelate, care dau farmec serilor târzii de vară. Nu ratați la Guellala să vizitați Muzeul etnografic și al patrimoniului cultural din Djerba, care figurează în valorile mondiale ale UNESCO din 1972.\r\n\r\nDacă veți avea noroc veți putea urmări și un spectacol folcloric ce amintește de multiculturalitatea insulei dar și de diversitatea religioasă există aici. La acest capitol ar trebui să aflați că pe insula Djerba sunt 354 de moschei dar și o sinagogă. El Ghriba este unul dintre cele mai mari lăcașuri de cult evreiești din Africa de Nord. Ne-am convins la fața locului, unde am admirat alături de arhitectura dominată de teracote pictate, vitralii, pereți lambrisați din lemn, fântâna secretă, și o frumoasă ceremonie care ne-a invitat la meditație și procesiune. Din cei peste 120.000 de locuitori, evreii alcătuiesc o comunitate de circa 1.000 de persoane. Tradițiile lor sunt apreciate și respectate de către tunisieni, aspecte pe care le caută și turiștii care vizitează sinagoga El Ghriba.\r\n\r\n”LIBRE A TOUT VIVRE !”\r\n\r\nCât de important este turismul în Tunisia! Acesta contribuie anual cu peste 50% la PIB-ul țării. La Djerba, un localnic, care și-a făcut studiile în Germania - Amel Karboul -, azi ministrul tunisian al turismului, ne declara: ”Diversitatea culturală şi umană a Tunisiei este forţa care construieşte. Aceasta ne face să avansăm și să creem o identitate distictă Tunisiei.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/mapamond122-153.jpg\" "\\"mapamond122-15\\"")

Bobul de fasole, datorită asemănării cu această legumă. Creată de artistul britanic, născut în India Anish Kapoor, pentru AT&T Plaza, Poarta Norilor are o circumferință de peste 20 de metri și este unică sub aspectul artistic. În ea se reflectă (e realizată din 168 de plăci de oțel inoxidabil, sudate între ele) siluetele a zeci de mii de turiști care vin zilnic să o admire dar și a numeroaselor clădiri din vecinătate.\r\n\r\nNu ratați galeriile Institutului de Artă aflate în vecinătate.

Aici vă puteți plimba ca pe un bulevard marin printre 25.000 de exemplare de viețuitoare acvatice. Vedeta este, de departe, cel mai bătrân pește din lume, care supraviețuiește într-un acvariu. Are 80 de ani și provine din Australia.\r\n\r\nȘi Muzeul Științei și Industriei vă oferă experiențe de neuitat. Veți parcurge săli interactive în care, dacă aveți curaj, puteți intra în mijlocul unei tornade ori furtuni tropicale. Deși veți ieși storși și cam umeziți, merită. Puteți opta pentru locomotive și trenuri dar și intra în unul dintre submarinele emblematice ale marinei militare americane. E greu de înțeles pe unde a fost băgată în muzeu nava de peste 40 de metri lungime.\r\n\r\nSenzații tari? Mergeți la Sky Deck Ledge. Turiștii au acces până în turnul Willis, considerat drept cea mai înaltă construcție din America de Nord și a opta din lume. Are 527 de metri înălțime, cu tot cu antene. Renumita firmă Sears stă la originea acestei investiții a cărei construcție a durat 3 ani. Clădirea cu 110 etaje, e ”legată” de cele mai rapide lifturi din lume și ”strânsă” de 16.100 de ferestre de sticlă. E un miracol ingineresc și tehnic.\r\n\r\nEa a fost dată în folosință în 1973. Partea atractivă pentru turiști a fost creată de către Casa de arhitectură Skidmore Owings & Merrill la etajul 103. În afară de admirarea panoramei orașului ai șansa de a te fotografia în camere de sticlă laminate și transparente construite în exteriorul clădirii. Cînd pășești pe podea înghiți în sec și îți faci curaj. Asta am făcut și noi.\r\n\r\nDar Chicago este recomandat și pentru turismul de shopping. În galeriile comerciale, printre care și cele de la Mancy\'s, vă veți bucura de superbe expoziții de flori, o altă găselniță de marketing cu care sunt chemați turiștii. Și, pentru că tot suntem în Mai, merită să readucem aminte că 1 Mai a devenit o zi emblematică a muncitorilor (vreo 65.000 au demonstrat pentru drepturile lor) aici, la Chicago, în 1886.\r\n\r\nTrei ani mai târziu, 1 Mai a devenit o zi de referință ce reamintește de lupte sîngeroase de stradă și condamnări la moarte. Așa s-a călit istoria!\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul\r\nUS TRAVEL ASSOCIATION, CITY PASS și OLIMPIC INTERNATIONAL TURISM \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n ','Djerba -

INSULA TRADIȚIILOR COLORATE\n\nPentru mulți dintre dumneavoastră Tunisia înseamnă o destinație de vacanță. Hammamet, Monastir, Nabeul, Tozeur sau Soussa sunt câteva stațiuni care sună bine în amintirile călătoriilor de vară.\n\nÎn colierul său turistic Tunisia ascunde o perlă, ce va completa atracțiile naționale ale viitorilor ani - Insula Djerba. Vreți să trăiți o experiență unică? Lăsați prejudecățile acasă. Nu seamnănă cu niciun oraș, nu e nici deșert, e mai degrabă o oază. A ospitalității. De la bun început te frapează căldura oamenilor. Ți se adresează simplu, cu amabilitate, își oferă informațiile cerute și, lucru important pentru turistul internațional, comercianții de suveniruri nu sunt insistenți până la agresivitate, dacă vrei să cumperi sau nu, câte ceva. Se lasă mai greu la preț, dar asta face parte din arta... negocierii.\n\nPitorescul străzilor este patriarhal romantic, iar aici la Djerba, spațiul este romantic nealterat de ororile arhitecturii moderniste. Albul și albastrul domină așezările din Djerba, ca de altfel multe localități tunisiene. Aici cele două culori sunt puse în valoare - în stil ”grecesc”, fiind subliniat de culoarea albastru-turcoaz al apei mării și auriul nisipului împrăștiat pe plajele sălbatice. Parcă te-ai reîntors la începutul lumii. Tinerii nu vor să te contrazică, dar din când în când trec pe lângă tine, ambalând scuterele parcă pentru a te trezi la realitate. Bicicletele sunt ”specialitatea” celor maturi.\n\nULISE ȘI LOTUȘII\n\nCum era de așteptat Djerba sau Jerba este un spațiu al poveștilor. Până aici faci, de la Tunis, cam o oră cu avionul și asta reprezintă o facilitate demnă de luat în seamă. Semn că turiștii trag de mult pe această insulă ( în stațiunea turistică există numeroase hoteluri internaționale de la Radisson Blu până la Riu), este Aeroportul. El a fost modernizat recent. Legenda spune că pe acest tărâm, aflată la doar 80 de kilometri de Sicilia ar fi debarcat celebrul Ulise care este un fel de naș. E a botezat insula drept ”Tărâmul mâncătorilor de lotus”. Frumos nu? Pare că talentul poetic al lui Ulise nu prea a fost analizat până acum. Nu mărimea insulei impresionează ci diversitatea tradițiilor ori a atracțiilor turistice. Digul rutier El Kantara, construit de către romani în perioada de înflorire a Cartaginei, a rezistat până în 1551 când a fost distrus de către Dragut, un temut pirat turc. A fost reconstruit abia în 1953, și a valorificat în noua sa structură vestigii ale digului original.\n\nLA LICITAȚII DE PEȘTE\n\nPentru experiențe multicolore trebuie să vă alocați măcar o jumătate de zi pentru a intra în tunelul timpului ce vi se dezvăluie la Houmt Souk, capitala insulei Djerba. Veți avea în față spectacolul lumii, în cea mai mare piață a acestei insule magice. Pentru a savura momentele licitației în Piața de de pește, trebuie să vă sculați dimineață. Pentru că aici peștele nu se ține la congelator, ci se vinde proaspăt pentru consumul de peste zi. E o întreagă regie, cu un staroste suit pe un tron de unde închide tranzacțiile la cel mai bun preț oferit de client. Ca pe vremea copilăriei noastre prin Obor, Matache. Așa era și cu halvaua, care aici încă mai este o operă de artă decorată cu feliuțe de fistic, alune și tot felul de semințe colorate. La fel de magnetic este spectacolul condimentelor (să nu ratați o degustare de sex vitamin, deh o altă legendă care vinde), al ceramicii, al străzii, al cafelei, al fructelor, al legumelor, al reclamelor. Ele au fost pictate prin anii coloniali, iar azi par că sunt retușate în fiecare sezon turistic. Textilele, piesele de pielărie și marochinărie, sunt produse în Tunisia, iar semnele invaziei mărfurilor chinezești încă nu au apărut. Pe fiecare din străduțele înguste e câte ceva de cumpărat, iar culorile metrajelor, pantofilor, al galabiilor, al covoarelor asortate cu ceramica autohtonă, te invită să faci sute de fotografii dar și să bagi mâna în buzunar. Pentru o suvenire, pentru un cadou. Spectacolul lumii merge mai departe.\n\nHA DI ȘI CĂMILA MAGICĂ\n\nAșa am ajuns la Guellala. Este cel mai faimos centru artizanal pentru vase de lut. Un fel de Horezu al nostru, pe vremurile lui de glorie, în care meșterii populari însoțeau fiecare piesă cu o poveste. Străzile sunt pline de magazine, care expun cea mai colorată și frumoasă ceramică tunisiană. Vase mici, vase mari, care sunt folosite zilnic în gospodării, amintesc de o istorie cu rădăcini adânci.\n\nPământul se leagă bine aici, iar talentul meșterilor face ca banul să se înmulțească și să creeze prosperitate. Cu cât vin mai mulți turiști, cu atât crește numărul demonstrațiilor live, dar mai ales cu ulciorul în formă de Cămilă magică, care se poate umple și goli pe mai multe părți în funcție de dexteritatea meșterului. Apropo, știați că tunisienii au peste o sută de denumiri pentru acest emblematic animal. Ha Di se trage dintr-o veche familie de olari.\n\nȘi-a construit un centru meșteșugăresc care merită a fi inclus în Guiness Book. Zidurile, structura de rezistență și tavanul sunt făcute numai din obiecte ceramice cești, farfurii, vase de diferite dimensiuni, animale în miniatură care asigura decorarea pereților. În total, ne spune Ha Di -, în această veritabilă Casă a Olarului pe care a construit-o timp de cinci ani, au fost încorporate 3.000 de căni și 2.000 de alte obiecte decorative. În principal îl vizitează turiști italieni, francezi, germani, și acum, iată, români. Dacă vreți ceva să vă aducă aminte de Djerba, căutați farfuriile decărate cu pești stilizați, simbolul clasic al ceramicii locale.\n\nEle amintesc de principala îndeletnicire a localnicilor. Sau felinarele dantelate, care dau farmec serilor târzii de vară. Nu ratați la Guellala să vizitați Muzeul etnografic și al patrimoniului cultural din Djerba, care figurează în valorile mondiale ale UNESCO din 1972.\n\nDacă veți avea noroc veți putea urmări și un spectacol folcloric ce amintește de multiculturalitatea insulei dar și de diversitatea religioasă există aici. La acest capitol ar trebui să aflați că pe insula Djerba sunt 354 de moschei dar și o sinagogă. El Ghriba este unul dintre cele mai mari lăcașuri de cult evreiești din Africa de Nord. Ne-am convins la fața locului, unde am admirat alături de arhitectura dominată de teracote pictate, vitralii, pereți lambrisați din lemn, fântâna secretă, și o frumoasă ceremonie care ne-a invitat la meditație și procesiune. Din cei peste 120.000 de locuitori, evreii alcătuiesc o comunitate de circa 1.000 de persoane. Tradițiile lor sunt apreciate și respectate de către tunisieni, aspecte pe care le caută și turiștii care vizitează sinagoga El Ghriba.\n\n”LIBRE A TOUT VIVRE !”\n\nCât de important este turismul în Tunisia! Acesta contribuie anual cu peste 50% la PIB-ul țării. La Djerba, un localnic, care și-a făcut studiile în Germania - Amel Karboul -, azi ministrul tunisian al turismului, ne declara: ”Diversitatea culturală şi umană a Tunisiei este forţa care construieşte. Aceasta ne face să avansăm și să creem o identitate distictă Tunisiei.\n\nDemocraţie înseamnă prosperitate economică, nu sărăcie. Dar când ai bani puţini pentru promovare trebuie să devii creativ. Turismul nostru se bazează pe Litoral, zonă prin care suntem competitivi. Stabilitatea şi continuitate sunt importante în turism. Nu trebuie să inventăm roata ci să asigurăm calitatea serviciilor cerute de turişti. În acest sens obiectivele turismului tunisian sunt: calitatea, imaginea şi diversitatea. Personal, încerc să fiu autentică, atât în politică cât şi în ceea ce fac pentru turism. De aceea invit călătorii internaţionali să vină în ţara noastră unde oferim toate aceste atuuri. Nu întâmplător sloganul turistic al Tunisiei este «Libre a tout vivre!».\n\n \n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\n\nMULȚUMIRI PENTRU SPRIJINUL LOGISTIC ACORDAT\nAmbasadei Republicii Tunisia la București\nMinisterului Tunisian al Turismului\n__________________________________________________________\n\n\nCHICAGO - Trage aer în piept !\n\nProhibiție, Al Capone, contrabandă cu băuturi, blues, jazz, Louis Amstrong și Nat King Cole, indianul Chicagou, devenit emblema-marcă a producătorului de mașini Pontiac. Ei, asta ține de povești mai vechi. Cele noi sună la fel de atractiv. Trebuie să aterizați măcar odată pe planeta acestui super-oraș.\n\nChicago oferă un pachet generos turistului modern. Cât de generos ? Răspunsul l-au oferit cei peste 40 de milioane de turiști care vin anual să-l viziteze. Ei consumă circa 2,3 miliarde de nopți de cazare. O parte însemnată din acest volum este asigurată de peste 50 de conferințe și congrese care se desfășoară anual în Chicago. Gurmanzilor le amintim că orașul deține 25 de restaurante Michelin.\n\nExistă vești bune și dinspre viitor. În varianta prezentată la o conferință de presă de către Don Welsh, președintele organizației Chose Chicago, prin 2020 orașul va primi circa 55 de milioane de vizitatori. Tot atunci Chicago va figura în topul celor 5 destinații ale Statelor Unite, pentru turismul internațional.\n\nCe-i cheamă pe turiști la Chicago! O foarte bună concentrare a obiectivelor culturale și istorice. Sugestiile noastre sunt concentrate în jurul bulevardului Michigan care străbate orașul de la nord la sud. Avantaj. Puteți să le vizitați fără a apela la mijloace de transport. Un City Pass, vă oferă discounturi atractive în condițiile în care un singur bilet de intrare trece de 25 de dolari.\n\nNu ratați Millennium Park unde se află cea mai căutată operă de artă. Se numește Poarta Norilor sau Poarta către Cer (Cloud Gate), dar glumeții au mai botezat-o... Bobul de fasole, datorită asemănării cu această legumă. Creată de artistul britanic, născut în India Anish Kapoor, pentru AT&T Plaza, Poarta Norilor are o circumferință de peste 20 de metri și este unică sub aspectul artistic. În ea se reflectă (e realizată din 168 de plăci de oțel inoxidabil, sudate între ele) siluetele a zeci de mii de turiști care vin zilnic să o admire dar și a numeroaselor clădiri din vecinătate.\n\nNu ratați galeriile Institutului de Artă aflate în vecinătate. Veți avea în față a doua dintre cele mai mari colecții de artă din SUA - circa 260.000 de opere. Marea senzație e asigurată de cea mai complexă galerie de pictură impresionistă și post-impresionistă din State, ce reunește picturi de Monet (circa 30 de tablouri), Renoir, Cezanne, Toulouse-Lautrec etc. Nu ratați nici Field Museum, ce poartă numele sponsorului Marshall Field.\n\nOrganizat în trei construcții - ce găzduiesc muzeul, acvariul Shedd și planetariul - el este cel mai vizitată instituție culturală a orașului. Aici vă puteți plimba ca pe un bulevard marin printre 25.000 de exemplare de viețuitoare acvatice. Vedeta este, de departe, cel mai bătrân pește din lume, care supraviețuiește într-un acvariu. Are 80 de ani și provine din Australia.\n\nȘi Muzeul Științei și Industriei vă oferă experiențe de neuitat. Veți parcurge săli interactive în care, dacă aveți curaj, puteți intra în mijlocul unei tornade ori furtuni tropicale. Deși veți ieși storși și cam umeziți, merită. Puteți opta pentru locomotive și trenuri dar și intra în unul dintre submarinele emblematice ale marinei militare americane. E greu de înțeles pe unde a fost băgată în muzeu nava de peste 40 de metri lungime.\n\nSenzații tari? Mergeți la Sky Deck Ledge. Turiștii au acces până în turnul Willis, considerat drept cea mai înaltă construcție din America de Nord și a opta din lume. Are 527 de metri înălțime, cu tot cu antene. Renumita firmă Sears stă la originea acestei investiții a cărei construcție a durat 3 ani. Clădirea cu 110 etaje, e ”legată” de cele mai rapide lifturi din lume și ”strânsă” de 16.100 de ferestre de sticlă. E un miracol ingineresc și tehnic.\n\nEa a fost dată în folosință în 1973. Partea atractivă pentru turiști a fost creată de către Casa de arhitectură Skidmore Owings & Merrill la etajul 103. În afară de admirarea panoramei orașului ai șansa de a te fotografia în camere de sticlă laminate și transparente construite în exteriorul clădirii. Cînd pășești pe podea înghiți în sec și îți faci curaj. Asta am făcut și noi.\n\nDar Chicago este recomandat și pentru turismul de shopping. În galeriile comerciale, printre care și cele de la Mancy\'s, vă veți bucura de superbe expoziții de flori, o altă găselniță de marketing cu care sunt chemați turiștii. Și, pentru că tot suntem în Mai, merită să readucem aminte că 1 Mai a devenit o zi emblematică a muncitorilor (vreo 65.000 au demonstrat pentru drepturile lor) aici, la Chicago, în 1886.\n\nTrei ani mai târziu, 1 Mai a devenit o zi de referință ce reamintește de lupte sîngeroase de stradă și condamnări la moarte.

Veți parcurge săli interactive în care, dacă aveți curaj, puteți intra în mijlocul unei tornade ori furtuni tropicale. Deși veți ieși storși și cam umeziți, merită. Puteți opta pentru locomotive și trenuri dar și intra în unul dintre submarinele emblematice ale marinei militare americane. E greu de înțeles pe unde a fost băgată în muzeu nava de peste 40 de metri lungime.\r\n\r\nSenzații tari? Mergeți la Sky Deck Ledge. Turiștii au acces până în turnul Willis, considerat drept cea mai înaltă construcție din America de Nord și a opta din lume. Are 527 de metri înălțime, cu tot cu antene. Renumita firmă Sears stă la originea acestei investiții a cărei construcție a durat 3 ani. Clădirea cu 110 etaje, e ”legată” de cele mai rapide lifturi din lume și ”strânsă” de 16.100 de ferestre de sticlă. E un miracol ingineresc și tehnic.\r\n\r\nEa a fost dată în folosință în 1973. Partea atractivă pentru turiști a fost creată de către Casa de arhitectură Skidmore Owings & Merrill la etajul 103. În afară de admirarea panoramei orașului ai șansa de a te fotografia în camere de sticlă laminate și transparente construite în exteriorul clădirii. Cînd pășești pe podea înghiți în sec și îți faci curaj. Asta am făcut și noi.\r\n\r\nDar Chicago este recomandat și pentru turismul de shopping. În galeriile comerciale, printre care și cele de la Mancy\'s, vă veți bucura de superbe expoziții de flori, o altă găselniță de marketing cu care sunt chemați turiștii. Și, pentru că tot suntem în Mai, merită să readucem aminte că 1 Mai a devenit o zi emblematică a muncitorilor (vreo 65.000 au demonstrat pentru drepturile lor) aici, la Chicago, în 1886.\r\n\r\nTrei ani mai târziu, 1 Mai a devenit o zi de referință ce reamintește de lupte sîngeroase de stradă și condamnări la moarte.

Hammamet, Monastir, Nabeul, Tozeur sau Soussa sunt câteva stațiuni care sună bine în amintirile călătoriilor de vară.\n\n\nÎn colierul său turistic Tunisia ascunde o perlă, ce va completa atracțiile naționale ale viitorilor ani - Insula Djerba. Vreți să trăiți o experiență unică? Lăsați prejudecățile acasă. Nu seamnănă cu niciun oraș, nu e nici deșert, e mai degrabă o oază. A ospitalității. De la bun început te frapează căldura oamenilor. Ți se adresează simplu, cu amabilitate, își oferă informațiile cerute și, lucru important pentru turistul internațional, comercianții de suveniruri nu sunt insistenți până la agresivitate, dacă vrei să cumperi sau nu, câte ceva. Se lasă mai greu la preț, dar asta face parte din arta... negocierii.\n\n\nPitorescul străzilor este patriarhal romantic, iar aici la Djerba, spațiul este romantic nealterat de ororile arhitecturii moderniste. Albul și albastrul domină așezările din Djerba, ca de altfel multe localități tunisiene. Aici cele două culori sunt puse în valoare - în stil ”grecesc”, fiind subliniat de culoarea albastru-turcoaz al apei mării și auriul nisipului împrăștiat pe plajele sălbatice. Parcă te-ai reîntors la începutul lumii. Tinerii nu vor să te contrazică, dar din când în când trec pe lângă tine, ambalând scuterele parcă pentru a te trezi la realitate. Bicicletele sunt ”specialitatea” celor maturi.\n\n\nULISE ȘI LOTUȘII\n\nCum era de așteptat Djerba sau Jerba este un spațiu al poveștilor. Până aici faci, de la Tunis, cam o oră cu avionul și asta reprezintă o facilitate demnă de luat în seamă. Semn că turiștii trag de mult pe această insulă ( în stațiunea turistică există numeroase hoteluri internaționale de la Radisson Blu până la Riu), este Aeroportul. El a fost modernizat recent. Legenda spune că pe acest tărâm, aflată la doar 80 de kilometri de Sicilia ar fi debarcat celebrul Ulise care este un fel de naș. E a botezat insula drept ”Tărâmul mâncătorilor de lotus”. Frumos nu? Pare că talentul poetic al lui Ulise nu prea a fost analizat până acum. Nu mărimea insulei impresionează ci diversitatea tradițiilor ori a atracțiilor turistice. Digul rutier El Kantara, construit de către romani în perioada de înflorire a Cartaginei, a rezistat până în 1551 când a fost distrus de către Dragut, un temut pirat turc. A fost reconstruit abia în 1953, și a valorificat în noua sa structură vestigii ale digului original.\n\n\nLA LICITAȚII DE PEȘTE\n\nPentru experiențe multicolore trebuie să vă alocați măcar o jumătate de zi pentru a intra în tunelul timpului ce vi se dezvăluie la Houmt Souk, capitala insulei Djerba. Veți avea în față spectacolul lumii, în cea mai mare piață a acestei insule magice. Pentru a savura momentele licitației în Piața de de pește, trebuie să vă sculați dimineață. Pentru că aici peștele nu se ține la congelator, ci se vinde proaspăt pentru consumul de peste zi. E o întreagă regie, cu un staroste suit pe un tron de unde închide tranzacțiile la cel mai bun preț oferit de client. Ca pe vremea copilăriei noastre prin Obor, Matache. Așa era și cu halvaua, care aici încă mai este o operă de artă decorată cu feliuțe de fistic, alune și tot felul de semințe colorate. La fel de magnetic este spectacolul condimentelor (să nu ratați o degustare de sex vitamin, deh o altă legendă care vinde), al ceramicii, al străzii, al cafelei, al fructelor, al legumelor, al reclamelor. Ele au fost pictate prin anii coloniali, iar azi par că sunt retușate în fiecare sezon turistic. Textilele, piesele de pielărie și marochinărie, sunt produse în Tunisia, iar semnele invaziei mărfurilor chinezești încă nu au apărut. Pe fiecare din străduțele înguste e câte ceva de cumpărat, iar culorile metrajelor, pantofilor, al galabiilor, al covoarelor asortate cu ceramica autohtonă, te invită să faci sute de fotografii dar și să bagi mâna în buzunar. Pentru o suvenire, pentru un cadou. Spectacolul lumii merge mai departe.\n\n\nHA DI ȘI CĂMILA MAGICĂ\n\nAșa am ajuns la Guellala. Este cel mai faimos centru artizanal pentru vase de lut. Un fel de Horezu al nostru, pe vremurile lui de glorie, în care meșterii populari însoțeau fiecare piesă cu o poveste. Străzile sunt pline de magazine, care expun cea mai colorată și frumoasă ceramică tunisiană. Vase mici, vase mari, care sunt folosite zilnic în gospodării, amintesc de o istorie cu rădăcini adânci.\n\n\nPământul se leagă bine aici, iar talentul meșterilor face ca banul să se înmulțească și să creeze prosperitate. Cu cât vin mai mulți turiști, cu atât crește numărul demonstrațiilor live, dar mai ales cu ulciorul în formă de Cămilă magică, care se poate umple și goli pe mai multe părți în funcție de dexteritatea meșterului. Apropo, știați că tunisienii au peste o sută de denumiri pentru acest emblematic animal. Ha Di se trage dintr-o veche familie de olari.\n\nȘi-a construit un centru meșteșugăresc care merită a fi inclus în Guiness Book. Zidurile, structura de rezistență și tavanul sunt făcute numai din obiecte ceramice cești, farfurii, vase de diferite dimensiuni, animale în miniatură care asigura decorarea pereților. În total, ne spune Ha Di -, în această veritabilă Casă a Olarului pe care a construit-o timp de cinci ani, au fost încorporate 3.000 de căni și 2.000 de alte obiecte decorative. În principal îl vizitează turiști italieni, francezi, germani, și acum, iată, români. Dacă vreți ceva să vă aducă aminte de Djerba, căutați farfuriile decărate cu pești stilizați, simbolul clasic al ceramicii locale.\n\n\nEle amintesc de principala îndeletnicire a localnicilor. Sau felinarele dantelate, care dau farmec serilor târzii de vară. Nu ratați la Guellala să vizitați Muzeul etnografic și al patrimoniului cultural din Djerba, care figurează în valorile mondiale ale UNESCO din 1972.\n\nDacă veți avea noroc veți putea urmări și un spectacol folcloric ce amintește de multiculturalitatea insulei dar și de diversitatea religioasă există aici. La acest capitol ar trebui să aflați că pe insula Djerba sunt 354 de moschei dar și o sinagogă. El Ghriba este unul dintre cele mai mari lăcașuri de cult evreiești din Africa de Nord. Ne-am convins la fața locului, unde am admirat alături de arhitectura dominată de teracote pictate, vitralii, pereți lambrisați din lemn, fântâna secretă, și o frumoasă ceremonie care ne-a invitat la meditație și procesiune. Din cei peste 120.000 de locuitori, evreii alcătuiesc o comunitate de circa 1.000 de persoane. Tradițiile lor sunt apreciate și respectate de către tunisieni, aspecte pe care le caută și turiștii care vizitează sinagoga El Ghriba.\n\n”LIBRE A TOUT VIVRE !”\n\nCât de important este turismul în Tunisia! Acesta contribuie anual cu peste 50% la PIB-ul țării. La Djerba, un localnic, care și-a făcut studiile în Germania - Amel Karboul -, azi ministrul tunisian al turismului, ne declara: ”Diversitatea culturală şi umană a Tunisiei este forţa care construieşte. Aceasta ne face să avansăm și să creem o identitate distictă Tunisiei.\n\n\n\nDemocraţie înseamnă prosperitate economică, nu sărăcie. Dar când ai bani puţini pentru promovare trebuie să devii creativ. Turismul nostru se bazează pe Litoral, zonă prin care suntem competitivi. Stabilitatea şi continuitate sunt importante în turism. Nu trebuie să inventăm roata ci să asigurăm calitatea serviciilor cerute de turişti. În acest sens obiectivele turismului tunisian sunt: calitatea, imaginea şi diversitatea. Personal, încerc să fiu autentică, atât în politică cât şi în ceea ce fac pentru turism. De aceea invit călătorii internaţionali să vină în ţara noastră unde oferim toate aceste atuuri. Nu întâmplător sloganul turistic al Tunisiei este «Libre a tout vivre!».\n\n\n\n\n \n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\n\nMULȚUMIRI PENTRU SPRIJINUL LOGISTIC ACORDAT\nAmbasadei Republicii Tunisia la București\nMinisterului Tunisian al Turismului\n__________________________________________________________\n\n\nCHICAGO - Trage aer în piept !\n\n\n\nProhibiție, Al Capone, contrabandă cu băuturi, blues, jazz, Louis Amstrong și Nat King Cole, indianul Chicagou, devenit emblema-marcă a producătorului de mașini Pontiac. Ei, asta ține de povești mai vechi. Cele noi sună la fel de atractiv. Trebuie să aterizați măcar odată pe planeta acestui super-oraș.\n\n\nChicago oferă un pachet generos turistului modern. Cât de generos ? Răspunsul l-au oferit cei peste 40 de milioane de turiști care vin anual să-l viziteze. Ei consumă circa 2,3 miliarde de nopți de cazare. O parte însemnată din acest volum este asigurată de peste 50 de conferințe și congrese care se desfășoară anual în Chicago. Gurmanzilor le amintim că orașul deține 25 de restaurante Michelin.\n\n\nExistă vești bune și dinspre viitor. În varianta prezentată la o conferință de presă de către Don Welsh, președintele organizației Chose Chicago, prin 2020 orașul va primi circa 55 de milioane de vizitatori. Tot atunci Chicago va figura în topul celor 5 destinații ale Statelor Unite, pentru turismul internațional.\n\nCe-i cheamă pe turiști la Chicago! O foarte bună concentrare a obiectivelor culturale și istorice. Sugestiile noastre sunt concentrate în jurul bulevardului Michigan care străbate orașul de la nord la sud. Avantaj. Puteți să le vizitați fără a apela la mijloace de transport. Un City Pass, vă oferă discounturi atractive în condițiile în care un singur bilet de intrare trece de 25 de dolari.\n\nNu ratați Millennium Park unde se află cea mai căutată operă de artă. Se numește Poarta Norilor sau Poarta către Cer (Cloud Gate), dar glumeții au mai botezat-o... Bobul de fasole, datorită asemănării cu această legumă. Creată de artistul britanic, născut în India Anish Kapoor, pentru AT&T Plaza, Poarta Norilor are o circumferință de peste 20 de metri și este unică sub aspectul artistic. În ea se reflectă (e realizată din 168 de plăci de oțel inoxidabil, sudate între ele) siluetele a zeci de mii de turiști care vin zilnic să o admire dar și a numeroaselor clădiri din vecinătate.\n\nNu ratați galeriile Institutului de Artă aflate în vecinătate. Veți avea în față a doua dintre cele mai mari colecții de artă din SUA - circa 260.000 de opere. Marea senzație e asigurată de cea mai complexă galerie de pictură impresionistă și post-impresionistă din State, ce reunește picturi de Monet (circa 30 de tablouri), Renoir, Cezanne, Toulouse-Lautrec etc. Nu ratați nici Field Museum, ce poartă numele sponsorului Marshall Field.\n\nOrganizat în trei construcții - ce găzduiesc muzeul, acvariul Shedd și planetariul - el este cel mai vizitată instituție culturală a orașului. Aici vă puteți plimba ca pe un bulevard marin printre 25.000 de exemplare de viețuitoare acvatice. Vedeta este, de departe, cel mai bătrân pește din lume, care supraviețuiește într-un acvariu.

Străzile sunt pline de magazine, care expun cea mai colorată și frumoasă ceramică tunisiană. Vase mici, vase mari, care sunt folosite zilnic în gospodării, amintesc de o istorie cu rădăcini adânci.\r\n\r\nPământul se leagă bine aici, iar talentul meșterilor face ca banul să se înmulțească și să creeze prosperitate. Cu cât vin mai mulți turiști, cu atât crește numărul demonstrațiilor live, dar mai ales cu ulciorul în formă de Cămilă magică, care se poate umple și goli pe mai multe părți în funcție de dexteritatea meșterului. Apropo, știați că tunisienii au peste o sută de denumiri pentru acest emblematic animal. Ha Di se trage dintr-o veche familie de olari.\r\n\r\nȘi-a construit un centru meșteșugăresc care merită a fi inclus în Guiness Book. Zidurile, structura de rezistență și tavanul sunt făcute numai din obiecte ceramice cești, farfurii, vase de diferite dimensiuni, animale în miniatură care asigura decorarea pereților. În total, ne spune Ha Di -, în această veritabilă Casă a Olarului pe care a construit-o timp de cinci ani, au fost încorporate 3.000 de căni și 2.000 de alte obiecte decorative. În principal îl vizitează turiști italieni, francezi, germani, și acum, iată, români. Dacă vreți ceva să vă aducă aminte de Djerba, căutați farfuriile decărate cu pești stilizați, simbolul clasic al ceramicii locale.\r\n\r\nEle amintesc de principala îndeletnicire a localnicilor. Sau felinarele dantelate, care dau farmec serilor târzii de vară. Nu ratați la Guellala să vizitați Muzeul etnografic și al patrimoniului cultural din Djerba, care figurează în valorile mondiale ale UNESCO din 1972.\r\n\r\nDacă veți avea noroc veți putea urmări și un spectacol folcloric ce amintește de multiculturalitatea insulei dar și de diversitatea religioasă există aici. La acest capitol ar trebui să aflați că pe insula Djerba sunt 354 de moschei dar și o sinagogă. El Ghriba este unul dintre cele mai mari lăcașuri de cult evreiești din Africa de Nord. Ne-am convins la fața locului, unde am admirat alături de arhitectura dominată de teracote pictate, vitralii, pereți lambrisați din lemn, fântâna secretă, și o frumoasă ceremonie care ne-a invitat la meditație și procesiune. Din cei peste 120.000 de locuitori, evreii alcătuiesc o comunitate de circa 1.000 de persoane. Tradițiile lor sunt apreciate și respectate de către tunisieni, aspecte pe care le caută și turiștii care vizitează sinagoga El Ghriba.\r\n\r\n”LIBRE A TOUT VIVRE !”\r\n\r\nCât de important este turismul în Tunisia! Acesta contribuie anual cu peste 50% la PIB-ul țării. La Djerba, un localnic, care și-a făcut studiile în Germania - Amel Karboul -, azi ministrul tunisian al turismului, ne declara: ”Diversitatea culturală şi umană a Tunisiei este forţa care construieşte. Aceasta ne face să avansăm și să creem o identitate distictă Tunisiei.\r\n\r\nDemocraţie înseamnă prosperitate economică, nu sărăcie.

Personal, încerc să fiu autentică, atât în politică cât şi în ceea ce fac pentru turism. De aceea invit călătorii internaţionali să vină în ţara noastră unde oferim toate aceste atuuri.

Cât de generos ? Răspunsul l-au oferit cei peste 40 de milioane de turiști care vin anual să-l viziteze. Ei consumă circa 2,3 miliarde de nopți de cazare. O parte însemnată din acest volum este asigurată de peste 50 de conferințe și congrese care se desfășoară anual în Chicago. Gurmanzilor le amintim că orașul deține 25 de restaurante Michelin.\r\n\r\nExistă vești bune și dinspre viitor. În varianta prezentată la o conferință de presă de către Don Welsh, președintele organizației Chose Chicago, prin 2020 orașul va primi circa 55 de milioane de vizitatori. Tot atunci Chicago va figura în topul celor 5 destinații ale Statelor Unite, pentru turismul internațional.\r\n\r\nCe-i cheamă pe turiști la Chicago! O foarte bună concentrare a obiectivelor culturale și istorice. Sugestiile noastre sunt concentrate în jurul bulevardului Michigan care străbate orașul de la nord la sud. Avantaj. Puteți să le vizitați fără a apela la mijloace de transport. Un City Pass, vă oferă discounturi atractive în condițiile în care un singur bilet de intrare trece de 25 de dolari.\r\n\r\nNu ratați Millennium Park unde se află cea mai căutată operă de artă. Se numește Poarta Norilor sau Poarta către Cer (Cloud Gate), dar glumeții au mai botezat-o... Bobul de fasole, datorită asemănării cu această legumă. Creată de artistul britanic, născut în India Anish Kapoor, pentru AT&T Plaza, Poarta Norilor are o circumferință de peste 20 de metri și este unică sub aspectul artistic. În ea se reflectă (e realizată din 168 de plăci de oțel inoxidabil, sudate între ele) siluetele a zeci de mii de turiști care vin zilnic să o admire dar și a numeroaselor clădiri din vecinătate.\r\n\r\nNu ratați galeriile Institutului de Artă aflate în vecinătate. Veți avea în față a doua dintre cele mai mari colecții de artă din SUA - circa 260.000 de opere. Marea senzație e asigurată de cea mai complexă galerie de pictură impresionistă și post-impresionistă din State, ce reunește picturi de Monet (circa 30 de tablouri), Renoir, Cezanne, Toulouse-Lautrec etc. Nu ratați nici Field Museum, ce poartă numele sponsorului Marshall Field.\r\n\r\nOrganizat în trei construcții - ce găzduiesc muzeul, acvariul Shedd și planetariul - el este cel mai vizitată instituție culturală a orașului. Aici vă puteți plimba ca pe un bulevard marin printre 25.000 de exemplare de viețuitoare acvatice. Vedeta este, de departe, cel mai bătrân pește din lume, care supraviețuiește într-un acvariu. Are 80 de ani și provine din Australia.\r\n\r\nȘi Muzeul Științei și Industriei vă oferă experiențe de neuitat. Veți parcurge săli interactive în care, dacă aveți curaj, puteți intra în mijlocul unei tornade ori furtuni tropicale. Deși veți ieși storși și cam umeziți, merită. Puteți opta pentru locomotive și trenuri dar și intra în unul dintre submarinele emblematice ale marinei militare americane. E greu de înțeles pe unde a fost băgată în muzeu nava de peste 40 de metri lungime.\r\n\r\nSenzații tari? Mergeți la Sky Deck Ledge. Turiștii au acces până în turnul Willis, considerat drept cea mai înaltă construcție din America de Nord și a opta din lume. Are 527 de metri înălțime, cu tot cu antene. Renumita firmă Sears stă la originea acestei investiții a cărei construcție a durat 3 ani. Clădirea cu 110 etaje, e ”legată” de cele mai rapide lifturi din lume și ”strânsă” de 16.100 de ferestre de sticlă. E un miracol ingineresc și tehnic.\r\n\r\nEa a fost dată în folosință în 1973. Partea atractivă pentru turiști a fost creată de către Casa de arhitectură Skidmore Owings & Merrill la etajul 103. În afară de admirarea panoramei orașului ai șansa de a te fotografia în camere de sticlă laminate și transparente construite în exteriorul clădirii. Cînd pășești pe podea înghiți în sec și îți faci curaj. Asta am făcut și noi.\r\n\r\nDar Chicago este recomandat și pentru turismul de shopping. În galeriile comerciale, printre care și cele de la Mancy\'s, vă veți bucura de superbe expoziții de flori, o altă găselniță de marketing cu care sunt chemați turiștii. Și, pentru că tot suntem în Mai, merită să readucem aminte că 1 Mai a devenit o zi emblematică a muncitorilor (vreo 65.000 au demonstrat pentru drepturile lor) aici, la Chicago, în 1886.\r\n\r\nTrei ani mai târziu, 1 Mai a devenit o zi de referință ce reamintește de lupte sîngeroase de stradă și condamnări la moarte.

Hammamet, Monastir, Nabeul, Tozeur sau Soussa sunt câteva stațiuni care sună bine în amintirile călătoriilor de vară.\r\n\r\n\r\nÎn colierul său turistic Tunisia ascunde o perlă, ce va completa atracțiile naționale ale viitorilor ani - Insula Djerba. Vreți să trăiți o experiență unică? Lăsați prejudecățile acasă. Nu seamnănă cu niciun oraș, nu e nici deșert, e mai degrabă o oază. A ospitalității. De la bun început te frapează căldura oamenilor. Ți se adresează simplu, cu amabilitate, își oferă informațiile cerute și, lucru important pentru turistul internațional, comercianții de suveniruri nu sunt insistenți până la agresivitate, dacă vrei să cumperi sau nu, câte ceva. Se lasă mai greu la preț, dar asta face parte din arta... negocierii.\r\n\r\n\r\nPitorescul străzilor este patriarhal romantic, iar aici la Djerba, spațiul este romantic nealterat de ororile arhitecturii moderniste. Albul și albastrul domină așezările din Djerba, ca de altfel multe localități tunisiene. Aici cele două culori sunt puse în valoare - în stil ”grecesc”, fiind subliniat de culoarea albastru-turcoaz al apei mării și auriul nisipului împrăștiat pe plajele sălbatice. Parcă te-ai reîntors la începutul lumii. Tinerii nu vor să te contrazică, dar din când în când trec pe lângă tine, ambalând scuterele parcă pentru a te trezi la realitate. Bicicletele sunt ”specialitatea” celor maturi.\r\n\r\n\r\nULISE ȘI LOTUȘII\r\n\r\nCum era de așteptat Djerba sau Jerba este un spațiu al poveștilor. Până aici faci, de la Tunis, cam o oră cu avionul și asta reprezintă o facilitate demnă de luat în seamă. Semn că turiștii trag de mult pe această insulă ( în stațiunea turistică există numeroase hoteluri internaționale de la Radisson Blu până la Riu), este Aeroportul. El a fost modernizat recent. Legenda spune că pe acest tărâm, aflată la doar 80 de kilometri de Sicilia ar fi debarcat celebrul Ulise care este un fel de naș. E a botezat insula drept ”Tărâmul mâncătorilor de lotus”. Frumos nu? Pare că talentul poetic al lui Ulise nu prea a fost analizat până acum. Nu mărimea insulei impresionează ci diversitatea tradițiilor ori a atracțiilor turistice. Digul rutier El Kantara, construit de către romani în perioada de înflorire a Cartaginei, a rezistat până în 1551 când a fost distrus de către Dragut, un temut pirat turc. A fost reconstruit abia în 1953, și a valorificat în noua sa structură vestigii ale digului original.\r\n\r\n\r\nLA LICITAȚII DE PEȘTE\r\n\r\nPentru experiențe multicolore trebuie să vă alocați măcar o jumătate de zi pentru a intra în tunelul timpului ce vi se dezvăluie la Houmt Souk, capitala insulei Djerba. Veți avea în față spectacolul lumii, în cea mai mare piață a acestei insule magice. Pentru a savura momentele licitației în Piața de de pește, trebuie să vă sculați dimineață. Pentru că aici peștele nu se ține la congelator, ci se vinde proaspăt pentru consumul de peste zi. E o întreagă regie, cu un staroste suit pe un tron de unde închide tranzacțiile la cel mai bun preț oferit de client. Ca pe vremea copilăriei noastre prin Obor, Matache. Așa era și cu halvaua, care aici încă mai este o operă de artă decorată cu feliuțe de fistic, alune și tot felul de semințe colorate. La fel de magnetic este spectacolul condimentelor (să nu ratați o degustare de sex vitamin, deh o altă legendă care vinde), al ceramicii, al străzii, al cafelei, al fructelor, al legumelor, al reclamelor. Ele au fost pictate prin anii coloniali, iar azi par că sunt retușate în fiecare sezon turistic. Textilele, piesele de pielărie și marochinărie, sunt produse în Tunisia, iar semnele invaziei mărfurilor chinezești încă nu au apărut. Pe fiecare din străduțele înguste e câte ceva de cumpărat, iar culorile metrajelor, pantofilor, al galabiilor, al covoarelor asortate cu ceramica autohtonă, te invită să faci sute de fotografii dar și să bagi mâna în buzunar. Pentru o suvenire, pentru un cadou. Spectacolul lumii merge mai departe.\r\n\r\n\r\nHA DI ȘI CĂMILA MAGICĂ\r\n\r\nAșa am ajuns la Guellala. Este cel mai faimos centru artizanal pentru vase de lut.

Dupa ce si-a vandut actiunile companiei Heineken, impreuna cu alti cinci actionari contra sumei totale de 150 milioane de euro, el declara ca doreste sa investeasca intr-o proprietate hoteliera.\r\n\r\nDupa ce avut loc un soft-opening in 2013, in aceasta vara a fost lansat oficial pe piata romaneasca hotelul Privo din Targu Mures. Proprietarul acestuia este tanara antreprenoare Adina Plopeanu.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_3101\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"530\"]![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Adina-Plopeanu-Director.jpg\" "\\"Adina")
Adina Plopeanu Director[/caption]\r\n\r\nEa este fiica lui Morariu, si cum era firesc la conferinta de presa, ea a vorbit despre o afacere de familie si o investitie totala de 7 milioane de euro. Privo a intrat pe piata hoteliera locala cu 40 de camere si apartamente, cu un restaurant cu capacitate de 160 locuri, 3 sali de conferinte, lobby-bar, terasa, crama si centru SPA.\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\n\r\nvezi aici mai multe poze\r\nCa managerii sunt ambitiosi se vede din estimarile pe care le-au facut pentru acest an. Se asteapta ca hotelul sa inregistreze venituri de 700.000 de euro la un grad de ocupare de 45%. ”Pentru 2015 previzionam cresterea indicatorilor economici cu un procent de 12-15% pe care ii vom realiza prin consolidarea si standardizarea conceptului PRIVO, precum si promovarea la nivel national si international. Fireste ca tintim sa ajungem lideri pe acest segment”- spune Otilia Demian, Director of Business Development al Privo. Demian a mai precizat ca hotelul Privo isi propune sa valorifice cateva oportunitati. În conditiile in care majoritatea clientilor sunt turisti de business, segmentele MICE, medical sau farma foarte dezvoltate in Targu Mures, au un mare potential de exprimare.\r\n\r\nExista un aspect foarte important la care ar fi de dorit ca administratia locala sa reactioneze mai rapid. Desi detine echipamente hoteliere excelente si atractii unice, orasul nu este perceput ca o destinatie turistica. De aceea majoritatea agentiilor de turism il trateaza doar ca oras de tranzit, cazarile fiind facute la Sighisoara, Bistrita, Vatra Dornei etc. În aceste conditii comunitatea de afaceri nu inregistreaza un business comunitar pe masura investitiilor facute. De urmarit, in conditiile in care piata hoteliera din Targu Mures, numara peste 800 de camere clasificate la 2, 3 si 4 stele, in hoteluri noi sau renovate recent. Plaza V si Business, Concordia, Grand, Continental sunt doar o parte dintre acestea.\r\n\r\nDar Privo nu este un simplu hotel. El se integreaza intr-un ansamblu de cazare clasificat la 4 si 5 stele. Acesta include cladirea noua, care se recomanda ca un complex cu arhitectura futurista si Vila Csonka (6 camere), o cladire istorica in stil Art Nouveau, ambele amplasate intr-un parc de 3.500 de metri patrati. Vila Csonka a apartinut unui celebru fotograf Geza Csonka, care a construit-o la inceputul secolului XX. Ulterior au aparut si cladirile Primariei si Palatului Culturii, care au contribuit la edificarea stilului Secession in Targu Mures. Mobilata cu piese originale Thonet si Art Deco reconditionate, vila are o vechime de peste 100 de ani. Restaurata in perioada 2011-2013, ea dispune de trei camere matrimoniale si trei apartamente deluxe cu acces direct din receptia hotelului, fiecare dintre acestea avand un design unic.\r\n\r\nÎn jurul acestui nucleu Hotelul Privo etaleaza linii gandite minimalist, cu suprafete calme si intinse. O serie de materiale naturale si high-tech, cum ar fi piatra, betonul aparent, sticla, serigrafiile accentueaza dialogul contemporan cu spatiul originar. Restaurantul, enoteca, salile de conferinte si spa-ul sunt cateva dintre elementele prin care hotelul cauta sa ofere oaspetilor simbioza perfecta intre munca si relaxare. Cateva dintre noile expresii au fost evidentiate, la un pahar de sampanie, in momentul inaugurarii hotelului de catre maestru de ceremonii Andi Moisescu, Valentin Luca (flair), Doru Pastrama (Executiv Chef), Marius Danciu (somelier). Partea muzicala asigurata de Vlad Mirita (voce), Lorand Szabadi (saxofon), Ildiko Krisar (harpa), a subliniat culorile si liniile unei colectii de moda semnata de creatoarea Carmen Ormenisan.\r\n\r\n”Proiectul Privo a inceput in urma cu 5 ani, avand la baza necesitatea unei noi abordari a ofertei turistice locale si este un nou concept la standarde internationale cu servicii exclusiviste. Este o afacere de familie, ca si celelalte pe care le avem, iar rezultatele obtinute pana acum ma indreptatesc sa cred ca vom realiza anul viitor o cifra de afaceri de circa 900.000 euro. Spiritul antreprenorial l-am mostenit de la tatal meu, Emil Morariu”- declara Adina Plopeanu. Împreuna cu sotul ei Alin Plopeanu, detine mai multe afaceri, printre care compania de constructii, Construct Mapcom, cladiri de birouri si un parc logistic, toate in Tirgu Mures. “Privo este visul copiilor mei si sunt mandru ca am putut participa la realizarea lui. Initial eu am dorit sa construim un hotel clasic.\r\n\r\nAm fost greu de convins sa ma obisnuiesc cu o abordare moderna, dominata de design. Dar acum, cand am vazut ce a iesit, imbratisez cu bucurie noua expresie ce atrage printr-un stil anume al ospitalitatii. A iesit un proiect unic, care armonizeaza vechiul cu noul intr-un spatiu dominat de verdeata. Cred in acest proiect si sper ca toti oaspetii care ne vor trece pragul vor simti acest devotament” - declara Emil Morariu.\r\n\r\nDe altfel o prima confirmare a acestor valori a venit, in iunie, cand Hotelul Privo a fost declarat castigator la sectiunea proiecte nerezidentiale - Fatada europeana a anului, a concursului LIFE CHALLENGE 66 de la Viena.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU','PRIVO - povesti despre bere, Seccesion si design, INDUSTRIE HOTELIERA 123','','publish','open','open','','privo-povesti-despre-bere-seccesion-si-design-industrie-hoteliera-123','','','2014-08-26 23:12:25','2014-08-26 21:12:25','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=3100',0,'post','',0),(3068,1,'2014-08-14 00:55:43','2014-08-13 22:55:43','Nu știu dacă ați auzit despre proiectul internațional RECULTIVATUR.

Un studiu recent Global Consumer Trends Survey al Euromonitor International detaliază tendinţele de consum la nivel global. El se concentrează pe profilul consumatorului conectat la Internet. În 2014 cam 40% dintre consumatorii globali vor fi online. Ei vor face alegeri după ce au citit părerile altor cumpărători dar vor achiziţiona lucruri mai mult din impuls, nu dintr-o necesitate reală. Metodele rapide de plată determină o achiziţie... la minut: trei click-uri stând pe scaunul din birou. Studiul Euromonitor arată că 23% din respondenţi citesc părerile celorlalţi despre produse online cel puţin odată pe săptămână, iar 12% îşi scriu părerea cel puţin săptămânal. În cazul pieţei asiatice, generoasă în cifre, 29% dintre chinezi îşi dau cu părerea în mediul virtual de 1-2 ori pe săptămână.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/tendinte122-3.jpg\" "\\"tendinte122-3\\"")
\r\n\r\nAplicaţii pentru stimularea consumului\r\n\r\nNatura agitată, rapidă a ritmului de viaţă cotidian, face ca oamenii să caute serviciul care este cel mai accesibil şi să folosească orice invenţie care poate simplifica găsirea de informaţie într-o lume care emite milioane de mesaje, de produse, în care ai sute de variante dar nu și timpul necesar să le studiezi. Aplicaţiile oferite gratuit pentru telefoanele mobile ajută în a face alegeri dar şi la vânzarea rapidă de produse. Poţi cumpăra un obiect văzut într-o revistă prin intermediul unei aplicaţii, prin scanare de imagine şi plată prin telefonul mobil. Există un program care calculează spaţiul necesar în propria locuinţă pentru mobila văzută într-un catalog. Creatorii de campanii online caută transformarea celor care doar urmăresc site-urile în consumatori. Oferă vouchere de reduceri la discreţie, cupoane peste cupoane de avantaje, concursuri care să atragă reţele întregi de „prieteni” virtuali. Diferenţa între produse este făcută prin valoarea şi idealul asociate lor de către campaniile de marketing: ele speculează latura emoțională iar sloganurile şi brandurile vând mai mult decât produsul, promisiunea unei schimbări.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/tendinte122-2.jpg\" "\\"tendinte122-2\\"")
\r\nCu schimbări semnificative se va confrunta și industria turistică. Restaurantele, hotelurile, agențiile de turism au în față noi provocări generate de tehnologii care vor să vândă cât mai mult. Cât de mult?\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/tendinte122.jpg\" "\\"tendinte122\\"")
\r\n\r\nDietele şi turismul\r\n\r\nNebunia dietelor a dus treptat la transformarea felului de a mânca. Piaţa este invadată de din ce în ce mai multe produse curate, organice, tradiţionale, biologice. Global Consumer Trends Survey arată că mai mult de jumătate din consumatorii mondiali sunt dispuşi să plătească mai mult pentru aceste produse „benefice” – ceea ce se întâmplă deoarece ele costă în general din ce în ce mai mult. Tendinţa consumatorilor către branduri şi produse sustenabile este explicată prin faptul că li se asociază o valoare socială mai mare. Oamenilor le pasă de calitatea mâncării dar şi de felul în care a fost crescută găina ori cultivată roşia.\r\n\r\nCum era de așteptat și turismul îşi dezvoltă la nivel global o nouă componentă: tururile agricole! Dacă un drum al vinului pe la crame şi podgorii era pentru cunoscători iar un tur culinar atingea restaurante cu specific sau cu distincţii internaţionale, tururile agricole nu sunt pentru un public select, cunoscător.

Vopsirea a fost realizata de către MRO Blue Air (Maintenance and Repair Organization Blue Air). Pe lângă calitatea grafică deosebită aeronava, cu o capacitate de 170 locuri, pune la dispoziția pasagerilor un interior modern, cu scaune din piele care contribuie la creșterea confortului.

\r\n\r\nCompania a anunțat că va implementa noi servicii în scopul creșterii calității ofertelor sale. Trei dintre acestea au în vedere: reactivarea segmentului de chartere spre destinații consacrate de vacanță din Turcia (Antalya, Bodrum), Grecia (Rhodos, Zakynthos și Corfu) și Israel (Tel Aviv); activarea sistemului de Check-in comun, pentru toate zborurile cu plecare din Aeroportul Internațional Henri Coandă (Otopeni), procedură ce reduce timpul de așteptare al pasagerilor, respectiv introducerea serviciului de catering cu produse create de celebrul chef Jakob Hausmann - ne-a precizat Florentina Tatu, PR & Advertising Manager al Blue Air.\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nS-a reluat Bucharest City Tour\r\n\r\nDe la 1 Mai, zi în care turiștii au beneficiat de tururi gratuite oferite de Regia Autonomă de Transport București (RATB) s-au reintrodus autobuzele supraetajate care asigură serviciile pentru linia turistică Bucharest City Tour.\r\n

\r\nCa și în anii anteriori ele vor conecta principalele obiective turistice ale Capitalei. Traseul are o lungime de 15,4 kilometri, include 14 stații și poate fi parcurs în aproximativ 50 minute pe următoarea rută: Piața Presei, Muzeul Satului, Arcul de Triumf, Piața Victoriei, Calea Victoriei, Palatul Parlamentului, Piața Unirii, Universitate, Piața Romană, Piața Victoriei, Piața Charles de Gaulle, Sos. Kiseleff și Piața Presei. Vestea bună este că tarifele de transportul turistic au rămas neschimbate, fiind cele mai mici comparativ cu capitalele turistice europene: 25 lei/card, pentru adulți și 10 lei/card, pentru copiii cu vârste între 7 și 14 ani. Copiii cu vârsta de până la 7 ani, însoțiți de adulți, beneficiază de transport gratuit. Cardul de călătorie este valabil 24 de ore de la prima validare și se poate procura din autobuzele turistice.\r\n\r\nÎn cei trei ani care au trecut de la demararea proiectului RATB a introdus mai multe elemente de optimizare a serviciilor și un nou concept de promovare. Turiștii au la dispoziție ghiduri audio în limbile română, engleză, franceză și italiană, hărți și pliante cu design atractiv, ce conțin informații despre obiectivele turistice de pe traseu, precum și conexiune la internet prin sistem wireless, gratuit.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nNoi zboruri pe OTOPENI\r\n\r\nIrlandezii de la Ryanair, cea mai mare companie low cost din Europa, au revenit, din aprilie, cu zboruri pe ruta Aeroportul Internaţional Henri Coandă Bucureşti – Aeroportul Dublin. Decizia a fost luată după mai multe luni de negocieri cu reprezentanţii Companiei Naţionale Aeroporturi Bucureşti (CNAB). Ryanair operează pe ruta Bucureşti – Dublin, începând cu sezonul de vară, patru curse săptămânale dus-întors. Anunțul a fost făcut de Maria Macken, manager de vânzări și marketing Ryanair pentru Marea Britanie și Irlanda. „Din estimările noastre, numărul total de pasageri pentru ruta Londra-București și Dublin-București, va fi de 160.000. Potrivit acesteia, pasagerii ideali pentru cursa Londra-București sunt atât oamenii de afaceri, cât și turiștii de weekend. În aprilie 2013 Ryanair s-a poziționat pe Aeroportul \"\'Transilvania\'\' din Târgu Mureș, cu patru zboruri pe săptămână, spre Bruxelles (Aeroportul Charleroi) respectiv Pisa (Italia, Aeroportul Galileo Galilei).\r\n

Aeronava este de tip Boeing 737 seria 400, design-ul fiind conceput și executat integral de către Ciprian Ciuclea, Art Directorul Blue Air. Vopsirea a fost realizata de către MRO Blue Air (Maintenance and Repair Organization Blue Air). Pe lângă calitatea grafică deosebită aeronava, cu o capacitate de 170 locuri, pune la dispoziția pasagerilor un interior modern, cu scaune din piele care contribuie la creșterea confortului. Motto-ul „calitate la un preț accesibil”, rămâne o prioritate a Blue Air, proprietate a Blue Air Airline Management Solutions.\n\n\nCompania a anunțat că va implementa noi servicii în scopul creșterii calității ofertelor sale. Trei dintre acestea au în vedere: reactivarea segmentului de chartere spre destinații consacrate de vacanță din Turcia (Antalya, Bodrum), Grecia (Rhodos, Zakynthos și Corfu) și Israel (Tel Aviv); activarea sistemului de Check-in comun, pentru toate zborurile cu plecare din Aeroportul Internațional Henri Coandă (Otopeni), procedură ce reduce timpul de așteptare al pasagerilor, respectiv introducerea serviciului de catering cu produse create de celebrul chef Jakob Hausmann - ne-a precizat Florentina Tatu, PR & Advertising Manager al Blue Air.\n\nMARA ANTON \n\n\n\nS-a reluat Bucharest City Tour\n\nDe la 1 Mai, zi în care turiștii au beneficiat de tururi gratuite oferite de Regia Autonomă de Transport București (RATB) s-au reintrodus autobuzele supraetajate care asigură serviciile pentru linia turistică Bucharest City Tour.\n
\nCa și în anii anteriori ele vor conecta principalele obiective turistice ale Capitalei. Traseul are o lungime de 15,4 kilometri, include 14 stații și poate fi parcurs în aproximativ 50 minute pe următoarea rută: Piața Presei, Muzeul Satului, Arcul de Triumf, Piața Victoriei, Calea Victoriei, Palatul Parlamentului, Piața Unirii, Universitate, Piața Romană, Piața Victoriei, Piața Charles de Gaulle, Sos. Kiseleff și Piața Presei. Vestea bună este că tarifele de transportul turistic au rămas neschimbate, fiind cele mai mici comparativ cu capitalele turistice europene: 25 lei/card, pentru adulți și 10 lei/card, pentru copiii cu vârste între 7 și 14 ani. Copiii cu vârsta de până la 7 ani, însoțiți de adulți, beneficiază de transport gratuit. Cardul de călătorie este valabil 24 de ore de la prima validare și se poate procura din autobuzele turistice.\n\nÎn cei trei ani care au trecut de la demararea proiectului RATB a introdus mai multe elemente de optimizare a serviciilor și un nou concept de promovare. Turiștii au la dispoziție ghiduri audio în limbile română, engleză, franceză și italiană, hărți și pliante cu design atractiv, ce conțin informații despre obiectivele turistice de pe traseu, precum și conexiune la internet prin sistem wireless, gratuit.\n\n\n\nNoi zboruri pe OTOPENI\n\nIrlandezii de la Ryanair, cea mai mare companie low cost din Europa, au revenit, din aprilie, cu zboruri pe ruta Aeroportul Internaţional Henri Coandă Bucureşti – Aeroportul Dublin. Decizia a fost luată după mai multe luni de negocieri cu reprezentanţii Companiei Naţionale Aeroporturi Bucureşti (CNAB). Ryanair operează pe ruta Bucureşti – Dublin, începând cu sezonul de vară, patru curse săptămânale dus-întors. Anunțul a fost făcut de Maria Macken, manager de vânzări și marketing Ryanair pentru Marea Britanie și Irlanda. „Din estimările noastre, numărul total de pasageri pentru ruta Londra-București și Dublin-București, va fi de 160.000. Potrivit acesteia, pasagerii ideali pentru cursa Londra-București sunt atât oamenii de afaceri, cât și turiștii de weekend. În aprilie 2013 Ryanair s-a poziționat pe Aeroportul \"\'Transilvania\'\' din Târgu Mureș, cu patru zboruri pe săptămână, spre Bruxelles (Aeroportul Charleroi) respectiv Pisa (Italia, Aeroportul Galileo Galilei).\n
\n\nȘi compania aeriană LOT Polish Airlines a anunțat suplimentarea cu al treilea zbor zilnic pe ruta Varșovia - București, ajungând astfel să majoreze numărul de zboruri între cele doua capitale de la 13 la 20 pe săptamână. Jakub Malecki, directorul general LOT pentru România și Republica Moldova a declarat că ÎN 2013 gradul de ocupare al aeronavelor a depășit 70%. Pentru acest an, operatorul estimează că va transporta 100.000 de pasageri pe relația cu România.\n\nALEX BARBU

Dupa ce si-a vandut actiunile companiei Heineken, impreuna cu alti cinci actionari contra sumei totale de 150 milioane de euro, el declara ca doreste sa investeasca intr-o proprietate hoteliera.\n\nDupa ce avut loc un soft-opening in 2013, in aceasta vara a fost lansat oficial pe piata romaneasca hotelul Privo din Targu Mures. Proprietarul acestuia este tanara antreprenoare Adina Plopeanu. Ea este fiica lui Morariu, si cum era firesc la conferinta de presa, ea a vorbit despre o afacere de familie si o investitie totala de 7 milioane de euro. Privo a intrat pe piata hoteliera locala cu 40 de camere si apartamente, cu un restaurant cu capacitate de 160 locuri, 3 sali de conferinte, lobby-bar, terasa, crama si centru SPA.\n\nCa managerii sunt ambitiosi se vede din estimarile pe care le-au facut pentru acest an. Se asteapta ca hotelul sa inregistreze venituri de 700.000 de euro la un grad de ocupare de 45%. ”Pentru 2015 previzionam cresterea indicatorilor economici cu un procent de 12-15% pe care ii vom realiza prin consolidarea si standardizarea conceptului PRIVO, precum si promovarea la nivel national si international. Fireste ca tintim sa ajungem lideri pe acest segment”- spune Otilia Demian, Director of Business Development al Privo. Demian a mai precizat ca hotelul Privo isi propune sa valorifice cateva oportunitati. În conditiile in care majoritatea clientilor sunt turisti de business, segmentele MICE, medical sau farma foarte dezvoltate in Targu Mures, au un mare potential de exprimare.\n\nExista un aspect foarte important la care ar fi de dorit ca administratia locala sa reactioneze mai rapid. Desi detine echipamente hoteliere excelente si atractii unice, orasul nu este perceput ca o destinatie turistica. De aceea majoritatea agentiilor de turism il trateaza doar ca oras de tranzit, cazarile fiind facute la Sighisoara, Bistrita, Vatra Dornei etc. În aceste conditii comunitatea de afaceri nu inregistreaza un business comunitar pe masura investitiilor facute. De urmarit, in conditiile in care piata hoteliera din Targu Mures, numara peste 800 de camere clasificate la 2, 3 si 4 stele, in hoteluri noi sau renovate recent. Plaza V si Business, Concordia, Grand, Continental sunt doar o parte dintre acestea.\n\nDar Privo nu este un simplu hotel. El se integreaza intr-un ansamblu de cazare clasificat la 4 si 5 stele. Acesta include cladirea noua, care se recomanda ca un complex cu arhitectura futurista si Vila Csonka (6 camere), o cladire istorica in stil Art Nouveau, ambele amplasate intr-un parc de 3.500 de metri patrati. Vila Csonka a apartinut unui celebru fotograf Geza Csonka, care a construit-o la inceputul secolului XX. Ulterior au aparut si cladirile Primariei si Palatului Culturii, care au contribuit la edificarea stilului Secession in Targu Mures. Mobilata cu piese originale Thonet si Art Deco reconditionate, vila are o vechime de peste 100 de ani. Restaurata in perioada 2011-2013, ea dispune de trei camere matrimoniale si trei apartamente deluxe cu acces direct din receptia hotelului, fiecare dintre acestea avand un design unic.\n\nÎn jurul acestui nucleu Hotelul Privo etaleaza linii gandite minimalist, cu suprafete calme si intinse. O serie de materiale naturale si high-tech, cum ar fi piatra, betonul aparent, sticla, serigrafiile accentueaza dialogul contemporan cu spatiul originar. Restaurantul, enoteca, salile de conferinte si spa-ul sunt cateva dintre elementele prin care hotelul cauta sa ofere oaspetilor simbioza perfecta intre munca si relaxare. Cateva dintre noile expresii au fost evidentiate, la un pahar de sampanie, in momentul inaugurarii hotelului de catre maestru de ceremonii Andi Moisescu, Valentin Luca (flair), Doru Pastrama (Executiv Chef), Marius Danciu (somelier). Partea muzicala asigurata de Vlad Mirita (voce), Lorand Szabadi (saxofon), Ildiko Krisar (harpa), a subliniat culorile si liniile unei colectii de moda semnata de creatoarea Carmen Ormenisan.\n\n”Proiectul Privo a inceput in urma cu 5 ani, avand la baza necesitatea unei noi abordari a ofertei turistice locale si este un nou concept la standarde internationale cu servicii exclusiviste. Este o afacere de familie, ca si celelalte pe care le avem, iar rezultatele obtinute pana acum ma indreptatesc sa cred ca vom realiza anul viitor o cifra de afaceri de circa 900.000 euro. Spiritul antreprenorial l-am mostenit de la tatal meu, Emil Morariu”- declara Adina Plopeanu. Împreuna cu sotul ei Alin Plopeanu, detine mai multe afaceri, printre care compania de constructii, Construct Mapcom, cladiri de birouri si un parc logistic, toate in Tirgu Mures. “Privo este visul copiilor mei si sunt mandru ca am putut participa la realizarea lui. Initial eu am dorit sa construim un hotel clasic.\n\nAm fost greu de convins sa ma obisnuiesc cu o abordare moderna, dominata de design. Dar acum, cand am vazut ce a iesit, imbratisez cu bucurie noua expresie ce atrage printr-un stil anume al ospitalitatii. A iesit un proiect unic, care armonizeaza vechiul cu noul intr-un spatiu dominat de verdeata.

Mobilata cu piese originale Thonet si Art Deco reconditionate, vila are o vechime de peste 100 de ani. Restaurata in perioada 2011-2013, ea dispune de trei camere matrimoniale si trei apartamente deluxe cu acces direct din receptia hotelului, fiecare dintre acestea avand un design unic.\r\n\r\nÎn jurul acestui nucleu Hotelul Privo etaleaza linii gandite minimalist, cu suprafete calme si intinse. O serie de materiale naturale si high-tech, cum ar fi piatra, betonul aparent, sticla, serigrafiile accentueaza dialogul contemporan cu spatiul originar. Restaurantul, enoteca, salile de conferinte si spa-ul sunt cateva dintre elementele prin care hotelul cauta sa ofere oaspetilor simbioza perfecta intre munca si relaxare. Cateva dintre noile expresii au fost evidentiate, la un pahar de sampanie, in momentul inaugurarii hotelului de catre maestru de ceremonii Andi Moisescu, Valentin Luca (flair), Doru Pastrama (Executiv Chef), Marius Danciu (somelier). Partea muzicala asigurata de Vlad Mirita (voce), Lorand Szabadi (saxofon), Ildiko Krisar (harpa), a subliniat culorile si liniile unei colectii de moda semnata de creatoarea Carmen Ormenisan.\r\n\r\n”Proiectul Privo a inceput in urma cu 5 ani, avand la baza necesitatea unei noi abordari a ofertei turistice locale si este un nou concept la standarde internationale cu servicii exclusiviste. Este o afacere de familie, ca si celelalte pe care le avem, iar rezultatele obtinute pana acum ma indreptatesc sa cred ca vom realiza anul viitor o cifra de afaceri de circa 900.000 euro. Spiritul antreprenorial l-am mostenit de la tatal meu, Emil Morariu”- declara Adina Plopeanu. Împreuna cu sotul ei Alin Plopeanu, detine mai multe afaceri, printre care compania de constructii, Construct Mapcom, cladiri de birouri si un parc logistic, toate in Tirgu Mures. “Privo este visul copiilor mei si sunt mandru ca am putut participa la realizarea lui. Initial eu am dorit sa construim un hotel clasic.\r\n\r\nAm fost greu de convins sa ma obisnuiesc cu o abordare moderna, dominata de design. Dar acum, cand am vazut ce a iesit, imbratisez cu bucurie noua expresie ce atrage printr-un stil anume al ospitalitatii. A iesit un proiect unic, care armonizeaza vechiul cu noul intr-un spatiu dominat de verdeata. Cred in acest proiect si sper ca toti oaspetii care ne vor trece pragul vor simti acest devotament” - declara Emil Morariu.\r\n\r\nDe altfel o prima confirmare a acestor valori a venit, in iunie, cand Hotelul Privo a fost declarat castigator la sectiunea proiecte nerezidentiale - Fatada europeana a anului, a concursului LIFE CHALLENGE 66 de la Viena.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU','PRIVO - povesti despre bere, Seccesion si design, INDUSTRIE HOTELIERA 123','','inherit','open','open','','3100-revision-4','','','2014-08-26 23:09:28','2014-08-26 21:09:28','',3100,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2014/08/26/3100-revision-4/',0,'revision','',0),(3118,1,'2014-09-04 22:29:24','2014-09-04 20:29:24','','Ev africa 1','','inherit','open','open','','ev-africa-1','','','2014-09-04 22:29:24','2014-09-04 20:29:24','',3092,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Ev-africa-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3119,1,'2014-09-04 22:29:38','2014-09-04 20:29:38','','Ev manager Romexpo','','inherit','open','open','','ev-manager-romexpo','','','2014-09-04 22:29:38','2014-09-04 20:29:38','',3092,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Ev-manager-Romexpo.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3120,1,'2014-09-04 22:29:54','2014-09-04 20:29:54','','Ev Slovenia2','','inherit','open','open','','ev-slovenia2','','','2014-09-04 22:29:54','2014-09-04 20:29:54','',3092,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Ev-Slovenia2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3121,1,'2014-09-04 22:30:09','2014-09-04 20:30:09','','Ev Slovenia 004','','inherit','open','open','','ev-slovenia-004','','','2014-09-04 22:30:09','2014-09-04 20:30:09','',3092,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Ev-Slovenia-004.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3122,1,'2014-09-04 22:30:42','2014-09-04 20:30:42','','untdelemnbunica','','inherit','open','open','','untdelemnbunica','','','2014-09-04 22:30:42','2014-09-04 20:30:42','',3092,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/untdelemnbunica.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0);

În cadrul unei cooperari dintre doua institutii de lecturi publice si filologie a fost prezentat un recital al Ljoba Jence, cunoscuta interpreta, povestitoare si militanta pentru pastrarea valorilor folclorice traditionale ale Sloveniei. Domnia sa a recitat si interpretat mai multe fragmente din piese populare carora le-a creat versiuni moderne. Prin proiectia filmului ”Last Boat” (produs de RTV Slovenia in 2005), care beneficiaza de evolutia artistei amintite, au fost promovate traditiile prelucrarii lemnului, intr-o zona magica in care exista un spatiu natural unic - lacul Cerknica.\r\n\r\nUn eveniment pentru incoming\r\nPrima editie a Romanian Travel Forum si Innovation Travel Gala au marcat reunirea profesionistilor din industria turistica din tara noastra, la restaurantul Elisabeta din Bucuresti.

Invitatul special al Galei a fost Constantin Moscovici, naist şi artist national al Republicii Moldova.\r\n\r\nBAILE BIBORTENI vor fi reabilitate\r\nAgentia de Dezvoltare Regionala - ADR-Centru, a anuntat ca Baile Biborteni din judetul Covasna vor fi reabilitate si modernizate, ca urmare a unei investitii ce se ridica la peste 5,5 milioane de lei. Contractul de finantare prevede ca, pe parcursul unui an si jumatate, sa fie create 15 noi spatii de agrement. Va fi refacuta in intregime cladirea principala (cu o suprafata de peste 1.100 metri patrati a spa-ului), terasa acoperita si anexele, sauna, pavilionul de apa minerala, precum si sapte bazine de inot, de hidromasaj, cu apa rece dar si cu apa minerala.\r\n\r\nPrograme transfrontaliere de regenerare\r\nAsociatia Tehimpuls a realizat si implementat proiectul „Regenerarea turismului transfrontalier prin servicii inovative pentru beneficiul comunitatilor locale”. El are ca tinta promovarea turismului din Banat - Banatul romanesc si Banatul sarbesc - si crearea unor instrumente care vor permite revigorarea acestuia si sustinerea administratiilor locale in procesul de construire a unui brand turistic regional. Cele mai importante rezultate ale proiectului sunt construirea portalului http://www.banatour.eu dedicat promovarii Banatului, disponibil in trei limbi - romana, sarba si engleza, infiintarea unui Birou de informare in cadrul asociatiei Tehimpuls din Romania si a unui cluster - Banat Route - in Serbia. Portalul a fost realizat de Tehimpuls si Agentia pentru Dezvoltare Socio-Economica Banat din Zrenjanin (Serbia), in colaborare cu organizatia neguvernamentala Bike Attack, respectiv Universitatea „Eftimie Murgu” ambele din Resita.\r\n\r\nPUTNA va fi restaurata\r\nProiectul de refacerea a acesteia beneficiaza de o finantare europeana nerambursabila in valoare de circa 3 milioane de euro. Lucrarile de reabilitare includ restaurarea si consolidarea Casei domnesti, a atelierelor, a staretiei, a cramei si a chiliilor care alcatuiesc ansamblul manastirii Putna. Totodata va fi modernizat sistemul electric si termic al lacasului de cult. Proiectul a fost depus de catre staretul manastirii Putna in 2010, dar de abia acum a beneficiat de varianta realocarii unor fonduri ce nu au fost cheltuite.\r\n\r\n5 Saptamani şi ceva\r\nÎntre 31 mai şi 28 iunie 22 de localitati din judetul Sibiu si-au prezentat atractiile (prin expozitii, spectacole folclorice, concerte de muzica clasica, proiectii de film, ateliere meşteşugareşti, ateliere de lectura, targuri de produse traditionale, vizite şi excursii turistice) in cadrul manifestarii Zilele culturale ale judetului Sibiu. În fiecare sambata, Asociatia Judeteana de Turism Sibiu a organizat excursii de descoperire a specificului cultural şi natural pe 5 itinerarii tematice. Fiecare excursie a fost un rezervor de experiente de cunoaştere, de intalniri cu oameni talentati şi poveştile lor. De la Valea Hartibaciului pana la Tara Secaselor, de la Valea Tarnavelor pana la Marginimea Sibiului ori in Tara Oltului toate traseele s-au bucurat de o foarte buna apreciere din partea turistilor prezenti - ne-a precizat Simina Manea, reprezentanta AJT Sibiu.\r\n\r\nBUNICA are bucatarie digitala\r\nOpenmind si Expur au digitalizat brandul Untdelemn de la Bunica, asa ca, acum bunica are casa si pe net la http://untdelemnbunica.ro/.

\r\nÎn acest an Statiunea Albena, care este administrata integrat de catre o societate turistica pe actiuni, controlata de stat, marcheaza 45 de ani de existenta. Reprezentantii conducerii nu scapa ocazia sa ne spuna ca aceasta oaza de vacanta a intrat in al 17 ani de cand plajele sale detin clasificarea internationala ”Blue Flag”.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Bulgaria-469.jpg\" "\\"Bulgaria")
\r\nNu e chiar la indemana oricui, pentru ca aceasta se decerneaza si se reinoieste periodic, ca urmare a evaluarii standardelor de curatenie, amenajarii plajelor, starea statiunii si aspectul apelor marii. Plaja este amenajata impecabil, pe trei sectiuni - pentru turistii all-inclusive, ce beneficiaza gratuit de echipamentele de plaja; pentru turistii fara asemenea servicii care trebuie sa plateasca o taxa zilnica; respectiv portiuni de plaje publice, gratuite, unde poti sa vii cu cearceaful sau prosopul propriu. Fiecare hotel beneficiaza de propria plaja care este marcata cu umbrele de soare, cu culori distincte.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Bulgaria-474.jpg\" "\\"Bulgaria")
\r\nPlaja are o lungime de 3,5 kilometri si beneficiaza de o latime de 150 de metri. Nu intamplator este denumita ”perla coroanei estivale” si e renumita in toata Europa. La Albena n-ai timp sa te plictiseste. Poti citi maldare de carti, gratuit. Pe plaja a fost deschisa deja bibioteca estivala, un proiect al unor tineri bulgari inimosi. Turistii au la indemana numeroase volume in vreo sapte limbi straine, inclusiv in romana. Biblioteca este organizata pe un principiu deschis - poti sa iei dar si sa lasi oricand o carte, poti s-o schimb sau poti sa o iei definitiv in geanta ta. Fondul de carte se reimprospateaza prin contributiile turistilor dar si prin donatiile facute de companii turistice. Unele dintre ele au sponsorizat autori importanti, si drept urmare doneaza numeroase exemplare. Ei, candva, o sa se intample si la noi pe Litoral la fel. Cu siguranta atunci cand industria turistica va auzi de cuvantul carte ori cultura. Dar exista si numeroase oferte turistice care iti ofera sesiuni de shopping la Varna, capitala maritima a bulgarilor, o intalnire cu istoria la Balcik, candva romantica resedinta de vara a Reginei Maria a Romaniei. Pentru amatorii de natura, trebuie sa stiti ca statiunea Albena se afla in zona unei importante rezervatii naturale ”Baltata”. Acolo traiesc 183 de specii de pasari si 337 de specii de animale protejate prin lege. Ele au fost inscrise in Cartea rosie a Bulgariei.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Bulgaria-5041.jpg\" "\\"Bulgaria")
Desi are 45 de ani de activitate Albena inoveaza in continuare. Hotelul Flamingo, cu cele 264 de camere de 4 stele, da tonul in statiune, dar si cu restaurantele si serile sale tematice. Una dintre ele este cu muzica si mancare mexicana, de unde te scoli plangand de dorul Americii Latine. Ca tot e cu Campionatul Mondial de fotbal acuma. Muzicanti mexicani, adevarati si bucatari pe masura. Un alt hotel, intrat in circuit in acest sezon este Amelia. Este un complex reinventat pe o veche structura, caruia i s-a adaugat un corp frontal nou, cu 40 de camere. Astfel el a urcat de la 3 la 4 stele. Amelia nu e numele sotiei patronului sau a sefei de restaurant. Designerii bulgari au creat un hotel tematic dedicat Ameliei Earhart, prima femeie pilot care a efectuat un zbor transatlantic. Receptia (incadrata in laterala de un motor cu elice), barul, lobby-ul, zona internet station, toate sunt decorate cu imagini din viata acestei temerare femei. Și uniformele angajatilor au linii inspirate de la costumele aviatorilor si ale stewardeselor. Sunt doar 2 din cele 40 de hoteluri pe care le ofera statiunea - ne-a precizat Andreia Stanciu, director vanzari al statiunii Albena pentru piata romaneasca.
\r\nSUNNY BEACH: Un Hotel Art unicat\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Bulgaria-484.jpg\" "\\"Bulgaria")
\r\nE considerata cea mai mare statiune de pe litoralul bulgaresc. Are un amplasament ideal pentru activitati turistice optionale fiind incadrata de orasele bijuterie Burgas si Nessebar. Sunny Beach e o statiune pentru tineri. Aici serile sunt dominate de zgomotul cluburilor in unele dintre ele mixand o parte dintre cei mai in voga DJ din lume. Exista si discursuri turistice mai aparte. Amplasat intr-o oaza de verdeata complexul hotelier Helena Park, iti aduce 5 stele chiar pe malul marii. Detine 232 de camere dotate cu tot confortul, restaurante, miniclub, spa, piscine interioara cu apa incalzita si jacuzzi, terenuri sportive etc. Hotelul e fieful germanilor si nordicilor dar si romanii sunt la mare cautare. Ei au deschis sezonul aici chiar de Sarbatorile Pascale. Resortul este promovat sub sloganul ”Un basm de trait” asta si datorita specificului sau unic. Helena este un art-hotel cu colectii originale exceptionale stranse de-a lungul vietii de proprietarul sau. Vorbim de circa 2.000 de lucrari, de la tablouri, tapiserii, sculptura mica dar si ambientala. Piesa de rezistenta - ”Atrium” - apartine sculptorilor bulgari Blagovest Apostolov si Christo Cristov care au ”legat” in mijlocul unei scari interioare rasucite, pe inaltimea a 5 etaje, cateva zeci de lucrari din metal, inspirate de viata si mitologia marina. Dincolo de performanta artistica avem in fata si una inginereasca, in conditiile in care greutatea totala a acestora depaseste doua tone. Gradinile exterioare sunt ”punctate” cu sculpturi care fac legatura intre alei si plaja. Arhitectura hotelului isi trage seva din liniile traditionale bulgare. Tot atat de adevarat este ca investitorul bulgar si-a dorit, in vecinatatea piscinelor, un pavilion incadrat de un imens candelabru. În mod sigur s-a inspirat din colectia ambientala a superhotelului Caesars Palace din Las Vegas. Aceasta zona este folosita pentru evenimente, inclusiv pentru oficierea de casatorii.
NISIPURILE DE AUR cheama piratii la... conferinte\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Bulgaria-5501.jpg\" "\\"Bulgaria")
\r\nMai intai ceva despre Pomorie. Beneficiaza de o amplasare foarte atractiva - pe o mica peninsula, intre Burgas si Sunny Beach. E unul dintre cele mai vechi orase bulgaresti, renumit de mult ca fiind cea mai populara si stilata statiune balneologica a tarii. Ea atrage anual circa 100.000 de turisti. Complexul fanion care ne-a fost prezentat este Grand Hotel Pomorie, ce detine cel mai mare centru Spa si de tratamente balneare din aceasta parte a Europei.
La numai 16 kilometri de Varna te intalnesti cu statiunea Nisipurile de aur. Istoria sa incepe din antichitate iar legenda locului spune ca nisipurile sale sunt ”de aur” pentru ca Marea Neagra a pedepsit piratii care si-au ingropat comorile furate pe malurile sale. Locul e plin de culoare, trenulete turistice, care strabat riviera si leaga hotelurile intre ele. Unul este chiar Admiral. Prin facilitatile sale - sali de conferinte de dimensiuni mari, el s-a impus pe segmentul de evenimente. Numeroase companii isi organizeaza aici seminarii, prezentari de produse etc - ne-a precizat Bilyana Nedelcheva, Front Office Manager la complexul Admiral.
\r\nCand se lasa seara statiunea e asediata de tineri. La minte ori la trup nu conteaza. Toti sunt dispusi sa-si petreaca vacanta intr-o continua sarbatoare - baie, plaja, discoteca si din nou de la inceput. Ordinea lor se schimba in fiecare zi. Ca asa e vara!\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSERBIA - Pinii de aur si Prorocii\r\nAtat de aproape de noi si atat de aparent cunoscuta Serbia se inscrie in plutonul alegatorilor de cursa lunga dupa... turisti.\r\n

\r\nActiunile de promovare ale tarii sunt tot mai indraznete si dinamice si au ca leit motiv afirmatia ca aceasta tara este o... o destinatie pe care nu o poate ocoli calatorul modern.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Serbia-091.jpg\" "\\"Serbia")
\r\nDestinatia noastra principala nu a fost insa Belgradul, asa cum probabil v-ati fi asteptat, ci regiunea Zlatibor. Desi pe toata durata documentarii noastre ne-am confruntat cu furtuni si ploi diluviene, gazdele noastre au reusit sa ne familiarizeze cu atractii aproape necunoscute de turisti, inclusiv de cei romani. Zlatibor (sau Pinul de aur) este orasul de referinta al regiunii muntoase cu acelasi nume. Ai de mers ceva, cam 230 de kilometri pana si ajungi aici din Capitala Serbiei. Accesul este insa rapid fiind facilitat de autostrada ce leaga Belgradul de Muntenegru. Zlatibor este si o statiunie montana. El respira prin padurile de pini, calm, frumusete si evident multa modernitate reflectata de hotelurile cu standarde ridicate dar cu preturi accesibile. Complexe ca Olimp, Palisad, Dunav, Mir, Idila sau Brana Sekulic ofera spatii confortabile clasificate la 4 si 5 stele. Posibilitatile de recreere oferite turistilor prin programele variate descriu tabloul complet al unei vacante reusite.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Serbia-125.jpg\" "\\"Serbia")
Sirogojno este integrat in aceste oferte. Un muzeu al satului in aer liber care te cheama din 1980 cand a fost fondat, cu un patrimoniu de gospodarii autentice ce reflecta arhitectura locala specifica ultimelor trei secole. În mijlocul asezarii se afla o biserica inchinata Sfintilor Apostoli Petru si Pavel. Ea este inconjurata de 54 de constructii traditionale cu diferite utilitati si destinatii - ateliere mestesugaresti, fierarie, grajduri, stupina, cladirea muzeului, dar si 7 case de oaspeti care reprezinta o buna oportunitate de cazare. O alta posibilitate de petrecere a timpului liber este o ascensiune pe munte.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Serbia-193.jpg\" "\\"Serbia")
\r\nVarful Tornik de 1496 de metri, cascada Gostilje, inalta de 20 de metri, cunoscuta pestera Stopica cu cinci ”sali”, dar si cu cascada ”Izvorul Vietii”, inalta de 9 metri etc. Conditiile climatice curative sunt puse in valoare de Centrul de sanatate Zlatibor - Cigota, considerata a fi cea mai veche clinica specializata din Serbia.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Serbia-242.jpg\" "\\"Serbia")
\r\nDar la Zlatibor n-aveti cum sa ratati un muzeu celebru - cel dedicat tricotajelor si impletiturilor din lana realizate de artizani si producatori locali. El a intrat in atentia publicului din anul 1962 cand s-a organizat aici o prima expozitie populara - tine sa ne precizeze Arsen Djuric, directorul Organizatiei de Turism Zlatibor. De atunci a inceput povestea succesului. De peste cinci decenii puloverele, fularele, caciulitele si multe alte confectii populare se exporta in tari printre care Suedia, Japonia, SUA, Franta, Germania ori Italia.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Serbia-262.jpg\" "\\"Serbia")
\r\nO parte dintre creatii, fiecare un unicat, au fost medalitate si la prezentarile de moda de la Milano. Dar muzeul are si un scop educational. El si-a propus sa conserve si sa promoveze acest tezaur ca valoare de patrimoniu a culturii sarbe. Parte a aceluiasi tezaur este si celebrul Emir Kusturica, a carui dragoste pentru traditii se regaseste la Drvergrad. Aici, pe un deal, deasupra localitatii Mokra Gora el a construit un etno-sat dedicat filmului.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Serbia-293.jpg\" "\\"Serbia")
\r\nEl l-a folosit drept cadru si pentru diverse productii. Asezarea mai este cunoscuta si pentru un alt unicat: calea ferata si trenul muzeu ”Sarganska Osmica”, sau ”optul lui Sargan”. Construita cu o diferenta de altitudine de 300 de metri, aceasta cale ferata, care face deliciul turistilor, serpuieste in forma de opt, de unde si numele. Bucuria jurnalistilor si travel agentilor romani a fost cand am descoperit in componenta garniturii un vagon produs in tara noastra. Trenuletul e alintat cu numele de Cika, iar autoritatile din turism il promoveaza ca fiind cel mai atractiv muzeu feroviar... rulant din lume. Cum ne aflam in tara genialului Tesla va semnalam ca in zona functiona, inca de la 1900, o minihidrocentrala - a doua din lume - pe baza principiului curentului electric polifazic. Azi ea se afla expusa la Muzeul Tehnicii din Uzice.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Serbia-313.jpg\" "\\"Serbia")
Dar Zlatiborul fara povestirile si prevestirile Prorocilor ar fi mai sarac in... farmece. În secolul al XIX-lea intre Zlatibor si Tara, in satul Kremna traiau asanumitii Tarabici, adica... Proroci. Raportat la vremea la care au trait au fost la fel de renumiti precum Nostradamus. Cel mai celebru dintre ei a fost Milos Tarabic (1809-1854). El si-a strans profetiile in cartea ”Tarabica Proroca”. Unele au devenit istorie, altele au intrat in folclor. Ca si profetia referitoare la calea ferata azi folosita in scopuri turistice: ”Vor trece multi ani si dupa aceea oamenii isi vor reaminti de drumul de fier. Atunci il vor repara. Nu pentru a-l folosi pasagerii la calatorii ci pentru distractie, amuzament si odihna.” Faina treaba!
\r\nA, da! O poveste buna merge cu mancare si bautura pe masura. Noi va recomandam un ”prsuta” de Zlatibor, alaturi de o ”lipie completa”, branza, si de ce nu, tuica de prune dublu distilata. Desertul il puteti lua, in drum spre tara, la Belgrad. Metropola este plina de viata, trezita parca dintr-un somn greu. ”Orasul alb” se lumineaza chiar si sub ploile mocanesti, la intersectia Dunarii cu Sava, asa cum ii sta bine unei capitale turistice europene. Aveti multe de vizitat. Daca vreti sa va simtiti ca un mare campion, faceti un popas la restaurantul lui Novak Djokovics, multiplu performer mondial. Mancarea sarbeasca are un gust aparte aici, dar gustul e dat si de bugetul pe care vi-l permiteti. În drum spre aeroport, alaturi de statuia lui Djokovics, am tras cu ochiul si la un poster cu Nadia Comaneci, impreuna cu Zeljka Pudar, reprezentanta NTO Serbia, care ne-a insotit pe parcursul acestei documentari.

BULGĂRESC a sunat adunarea\nUn reporter TV, roman intreaba o familie de turisti romani pe o plaja dintr-o statiune bulgara - de ce ati ales sa va petreceti vacanta aici? Raspuns: este foarte curat, civilizat iar preturile nu sunt ostile turistului. Este o statiune ca o gradina!?\n\nDe la aceasta idee, am pornit curiosi intr-un Infotrip organizat de Ministerul Energiei si Turismului din Bulgaria. Ce anume ii atrage pe turistii nostri in statiunile marine de la vecini? Iata cateva descoperiri!\n\nALBENA - Mexicanii s-au intalnit cu Amelia\n\nÎn acest an Statiunea Albena, care este administrata integrat de catre o societate turistica pe actiuni, controlata de stat, marcheaza 45 de ani de existenta. Reprezentantii conducerii nu scapa ocazia sa ne spuna ca aceasta oaza de vacanta a intrat in al 17 ani de cand plajele sale detin clasificarea internationala ”Blue Flag”.\n\nNu e chiar la indemana oricui, pentru ca aceasta se decerneaza si se reinoieste periodic, ca urmare a evaluarii standardelor de curatenie, amenajarii plajelor, starea statiunii si aspectul apelor marii. Plaja este amenajata impecabil, pe trei sectiuni - pentru turistii all-inclusive, ce beneficiaza gratuit de echipamentele de plaja; pentru turistii fara asemenea servicii care trebuie sa plateasca o taxa zilnica; respectiv portiuni de plaje publice, gratuite, unde poti sa vii cu cearceaful sau prosopul propriu. Fiecare hotel beneficiaza de propria plaja care este marcata cu umbrele de soare, cu culori distincte.\n\nPlaja are o lungime de 3,5 kilometri si beneficiaza de o latime de 150 de metri. Nu intamplator este denumita ”perla coroanei estivale” si e renumita in toata Europa. La Albena n-ai timp sa te plictiseste. Poti citi maldare de carti, gratuit. Pe plaja a fost deschisa deja bibioteca estivala, un proiect al unor tineri bulgari inimosi. Turistii au la indemana numeroase volume in vreo sapte limbi straine, inclusiv in romana. Biblioteca este organizata pe un principiu deschis - poti sa iei dar si sa lasi oricand o carte, poti s-o schimb sau poti sa o iei definitiv in geanta ta. Fondul de carte se reimprospateaza prin contributiile turistilor dar si prin donatiile facute de companii turistice. Unele dintre ele au sponsorizat autori importanti, si drept urmare doneaza numeroase exemplare. Ei, candva, o sa se intample si la noi pe Litoral la fel. Cu siguranta atunci cand industria turistica va auzi de cuvantul carte ori cultura. Dar exista si numeroase oferte turistice care iti ofera sesiuni de shopping la Varna, capitala maritima a bulgarilor, o intalnire cu istoria la Balcik, candva romantica resedinta de vara a Reginei Maria a Romaniei. Pentru amatorii de natura, trebuie sa stiti ca statiunea Albena se afla in zona unei importante rezervatii naturale ”Baltata”. Acolo traiesc 183 de specii de pasari si 337 de specii de animale protejate prin lege. Ele au fost inscrise in Cartea rosie a Bulgariei.\n
Desi are 45 de ani de activitate Albena inoveaza in continuare. Hotelul Flamingo, cu cele 264 de camere de 4 stele, da tonul in statiune, dar si cu restaurantele si serile sale tematice. Una dintre ele este cu muzica si mancare mexicana, de unde te scoli plangand de dorul Americii Latine. Ca tot e cu Campionatul Mondial de fotbal acuma. Muzicanti mexicani, adevarati si bucatari pe masura. Un alt hotel, intrat in circuit in acest sezon este Amelia. Este un complex reinventat pe o veche structura, caruia i s-a adaugat un corp frontal nou, cu 40 de camere. Astfel el a urcat de la 3 la 4 stele. Amelia nu e numele sotiei patronului sau a sefei de restaurant. Designerii bulgari au creat un hotel tematic dedicat Ameliei Earhart, prima femeie pilot care a efectuat un zbor transatlantic. Receptia (incadrata in laterala de un motor cu elice), barul, lobby-ul, zona internet station, toate sunt decorate cu imagini din viata acestei temerare femei. Și uniformele angajatilor au linii inspirate de la costumele aviatorilor si ale stewardeselor. Sunt doar 2 din cele 40 de hoteluri pe care le ofera statiunea - ne-a precizat Andreia Stanciu, director vanzari al statiunii Albena pentru piata romaneasca.
\nSUNNY BEACH: Un Hotel Art unicat\n\nE considerata cea mai mare statiune de pe litoralul bulgaresc. Are un amplasament ideal pentru activitati turistice optionale fiind incadrata de orasele bijuterie Burgas si Nessebar. Sunny Beach e o statiune pentru tineri. Aici serile sunt dominate de zgomotul cluburilor in unele dintre ele mixand o parte dintre cei mai in voga DJ din lume. Exista si discursuri turistice mai aparte. Amplasat intr-o oaza de verdeata complexul hotelier Helena Park, iti aduce 5 stele chiar pe malul marii. Detine 232 de camere dotate cu tot confortul, restaurante, miniclub, spa, piscine interioara cu apa incalzita si jacuzzi, terenuri sportive etc. Hotelul e fieful germanilor si nordicilor dar si romanii sunt la mare cautare. Ei au deschis sezonul aici chiar de Sarbatorile Pascale. Resortul este promovat sub sloganul ”Un basm de trait” asta si datorita specificului sau unic. Helena este un art-hotel cu colectii originale exceptionale stranse de-a lungul vietii de proprietarul sau. Vorbim de circa 2.000 de lucrari, de la tablouri, tapiserii, sculptura mica dar si ambientala. Piesa de rezistenta - ”Atrium” - apartine sculptorilor bulgari Blagovest Apostolov si Christo Cristov care au ”legat” in mijlocul unei scari interioare rasucite, pe inaltimea a 5 etaje, cateva zeci de lucrari din metal, inspirate de viata si mitologia marina. Dincolo de performanta artistica avem in fata si una inginereasca, in conditiile in care greutatea totala a acestora depaseste doua tone. Gradinile exterioare sunt ”punctate” cu sculpturi care fac legatura intre alei si plaja. Arhitectura hotelului isi trage seva din liniile traditionale bulgare. Tot atat de adevarat este ca investitorul bulgar si-a dorit, in vecinatatea piscinelor, un pavilion incadrat de un imens candelabru. În mod sigur s-a inspirat din colectia ambientala a superhotelului Caesars Palace din Las Vegas. Aceasta zona este folosita pentru evenimente, inclusiv pentru oficierea de casatorii.

\nActiunile de promovare ale tarii sunt tot mai indraznete si dinamice si au ca leit motiv afirmatia ca aceasta tara este o... o destinatie pe care nu o poate ocoli calatorul modern.\n\nDestinatia noastra principala nu a fost insa Belgradul, asa cum probabil v-ati fi asteptat, ci regiunea Zlatibor. Desi pe toata durata documentarii noastre ne-am confruntat cu furtuni si ploi diluviene, gazdele noastre au reusit sa ne familiarizeze cu atractii aproape necunoscute de turisti, inclusiv de cei romani. Zlatibor (sau Pinul de aur) este orasul de referinta al regiunii muntoase cu acelasi nume. Ai de mers ceva, cam 230 de kilometri pana si ajungi aici din Capitala Serbiei. Accesul este insa rapid fiind facilitat de autostrada ce leaga Belgradul de Muntenegru. Zlatibor este si o statiunie montana. El respira prin padurile de pini, calm, frumusete si evident multa modernitate reflectata de hotelurile cu standarde ridicate dar cu preturi accesibile. Complexe ca Olimp, Palisad, Dunav, Mir, Idila sau Brana Sekulic ofera spatii confortabile clasificate la 4 si 5 stele. Posibilitatile de recreere oferite turistilor prin programele variate descriu tabloul complet al unei vacante reusite.\n
Sirogojno este integrat in aceste oferte. Un muzeu al satului in aer liber care te cheama din 1980 cand a fost fondat, cu un patrimoniu de gospodarii autentice ce reflecta arhitectura locala specifica ultimelor trei secole. În mijlocul asezarii se afla o biserica inchinata Sfintilor Apostoli Petru si Pavel. Ea este inconjurata de 54 de constructii traditionale cu diferite utilitati si destinatii - ateliere mestesugaresti, fierarie, grajduri, stupina, cladirea muzeului, dar si 7 case de oaspeti care reprezinta o buna oportunitate de cazare. O alta posibilitate de petrecere a timpului liber este o ascensiune pe munte.\n\nVarful Tornik de 1496 de metri, cascada Gostilje, inalta de 20 de metri, cunoscuta pestera Stopica cu cinci ”sali”, dar si cu cascada ”Izvorul Vietii”, inalta de 9 metri etc. Conditiile climatice curative sunt puse in valoare de Centrul de sanatate Zlatibor - Cigota, considerata a fi cea mai veche clinica specializata din Serbia.\n\nDar la Zlatibor n-aveti cum sa ratati un muzeu celebru - cel dedicat tricotajelor si impletiturilor din lana realizate de artizani si producatori locali. El a intrat in atentia publicului din anul 1962 cand s-a organizat aici o prima expozitie populara - tine sa ne precizeze Arsen Djuric, directorul Organizatiei de Turism Zlatibor. De atunci a inceput povestea succesului. De peste cinci decenii puloverele, fularele, caciulitele si multe alte confectii populare se exporta in tari printre care Suedia, Japonia, SUA, Franta, Germania ori Italia.\n\nO parte dintre creatii, fiecare un unicat, au fost medalitate si la prezentarile de moda de la Milano. Dar muzeul are si un scop educational. El si-a propus sa conserve si sa promoveze acest tezaur ca valoare de patrimoniu a culturii sarbe. Parte a aceluiasi tezaur este si celebrul Emir Kusturica, a carui dragoste pentru traditii se regaseste la Drvergrad. Aici, pe un deal, deasupra localitatii Mokra Gora el a construit un etno-sat dedicat filmului.\n\nEl l-a folosit drept cadru si pentru diverse productii. Asezarea mai este cunoscuta si pentru un alt unicat: calea ferata si trenul muzeu ”Sarganska Osmica”, sau ”optul lui Sargan”. Construita cu o diferenta de altitudine de 300 de metri, aceasta cale ferata, care face deliciul turistilor, serpuieste in forma de opt, de unde si numele. Bucuria jurnalistilor si travel agentilor romani a fost cand am descoperit in componenta garniturii un vagon produs in tara noastra. Trenuletul e alintat cu numele de Cika, iar autoritatile din turism il promoveaza ca fiind cel mai atractiv muzeu feroviar... rulant din lume. Cum ne aflam in tara genialului Tesla va semnalam ca in zona functiona, inca de la 1900, o minihidrocentrala - a doua din lume - pe baza principiului curentului electric polifazic. Azi ea se afla expusa la Muzeul Tehnicii din Uzice.
Dar Zlatiborul fara povestirile si prevestirile Prorocilor ar fi mai sarac in... farmece. În secolul al XIX-lea intre Zlatibor si Tara, in satul Kremna traiau asanumitii Tarabici, adica... Proroci. Raportat la vremea la care au trait au fost la fel de renumiti precum Nostradamus. Cel mai celebru dintre ei a fost Milos Tarabic (1809-1854). El si-a strans profetiile in cartea ”Tarabica Proroca”. Unele au devenit istorie, altele au intrat in folclor. Ca si profetia referitoare la calea ferata azi folosita in scopuri turistice: ”Vor trece multi ani si dupa aceea oamenii isi vor reaminti de drumul de fier. Atunci il vor repara. Nu pentru a-l folosi pasagerii la calatorii ci pentru distractie, amuzament si odihna.” Faina treaba!
\nA, da! O poveste buna merge cu mancare si bautura pe masura. Noi va recomandam un ”prsuta” de Zlatibor, alaturi de o ”lipie completa”, branza, si de ce nu, tuica de prune dublu distilata. Desertul il puteti lua, in drum spre tara, la Belgrad. Metropola este plina de viata, trezita parca dintr-un somn greu. ”Orasul alb” se lumineaza chiar si sub ploile mocanesti, la intersectia Dunarii cu Sava, asa cum ii sta bine unei capitale turistice europene. Aveti multe de vizitat. Daca vreti sa va simtiti ca un mare campion, faceti un popas la restaurantul lui Novak Djokovics, multiplu performer mondial. Mancarea sarbeasca are un gust aparte aici, dar gustul e dat si de bugetul pe care vi-l permiteti. În drum spre aeroport, alaturi de statuia lui Djokovics, am tras cu ochiul si la un poster cu Nadia Comaneci, impreuna cu Zeljka Pudar, reprezentanta NTO Serbia, care ne-a insotit pe parcursul acestei documentari.

Pentru acest an, WTTC estimeaza o crestere de 5,4% a contributiei totale a turismului la PIB, urmata de o rata medie de crestere de 3,8% pe an, pana in 2024, la 50,8 miliarde de lei.\r\n\r\nNumarul noptilor petrecute de turistii straini in structurile de cazare din Romania a crescut anul trecut cu 5,1%, dar turismul nostru este in continuare cu mult in urma statelor vecine, mai putin de una din cinci innoptari revenind vizitatorilor din afara tarii - subliniaza Eurostat. Turistii straini au petrecut anul trecut in tara noastra numai 3,5 milioane de nopti, ceea ce exprima unul dintre cele mai scazute niveluri din Uniunea Europeana, cam de patru ori mai putin decat rezultatele Ungariei sau Bulgariei. Ne consoleaza doar faptul ca Letonia si Lituania au avut mai putini vizitatori straini anul trecut, cu 2,7 milioane, respectiv 2,8 milioane de innoptari, insa in aceste state turistii straini reprezinta 70%, respectiv 51% din piata. Deci nici aici nu e loc de consolare. Partea cea mai trista este ca strainii au acoperit in Romania doar 18% din piata, cel mai redus procentaj din UE, comparativ cu 67% in Bulgaria, cu 14,3 milioane de innoptari anul trecut, sau 49% in cazul Ungariei, unde strainii au petrecut in anul precedent aproximativ 12,3 milioane de nopti.\r\n\r\nCe cauta strainii in Gradina Carpatilor?\r\n\r\ni asta e important. Un raspuns foarte serios ne este oferit de Institutul National de Statistica (INS). Mai intai Romania a fost vizitata in 2013 de 1,71 milioane de turisti straini care au cheltuit 4,79 miliarde lei (1,08 miliarde de euro). Cel mai elocvent lucru este ca din totalul turistilor straini - cei mai multi provenind din Germania (228.590), Italia (181.900) si Franta (118.650), principala motivatie care i-a atras a fost acoperita de segmentele de afaceri si MICE (adica industria de evenimente, participarea la congrese, conferinte, cursuri, targuri si expozitii. Circa 58,0% din numarul total de turisti nerezidenti. Turistii veniti in aceste scopuri au cheltuit 66,4% din totalul incasarilor din turism ale Romaniei. Din totalul cheltuielilor pentru afaceri, ponderea cea mai mare o reprezinta cele pentru cazare (55,1%), fiind preferata in special cazarea cu mic dejun inclus (84,1%). Iata un subiect la care merita reflectat.\r\n\r\nAlte motive au fost calatoriile in scop particular (42,0% din numarul total de turisti nerezidenti), cheltuielile acestora reprezentand 33,6% din total.

La trei ani dupa ce TAROM a renuntat la operarea rutei Bucuresti-Riga letonii de la Air Baltic au intrat pe aceasta nisa sperand ca vor face profit. Prima zbor a avut loc pe Otopeni la inceptul lunii. Oficialii au anuntat ca orarul contine 4 curse saptamanale (marti, miercuri, vineri si sambata), iar in sezonul de iarna numarul acestora va fi redus la 3. Zborurile sunt operate cu aeronave Bombardier Q400 NextGen si dureaza pana la 3 ore. Operatorul aerian se asteapta la 20.000 – 25.000 de pasageri pe an, dintre care 70% vor calatorii in vacanta, iar 30% in interes de afaceri. „Mizam pe un mix de pasageri in Romania dar si pe traficul etnic. Miscarea facuta pe piata romaneasca e integrata in initiativele noastre de relocare. Am renuntat la o serie de rute cu cerere slaba in sezonul de vacante\" - a declarat Christophe Viatte, chief commercial officer al Air Baltic, propietate intr-o proportie de 99,8% a statului leton.

Cursa Bucuresti-Koln si retur e disponibila in fiecare zi de luni, miercuri si vineri in perioada 16 iunie – 24 octombrie 2014. Aeroportul Koln-Bonn are acces direct la reteaua feroviara de mare viteza, ceea ce ofera pasagerilor o conexiune rapida cu toata zona de nord a Germaniei, Luxemburg sau Olanda.

\nTAROM a primit Certificatul ISO\n\n Compania Nationala TAROM a primit certificatul care atesta conformitatea Sistemului sau de Management al Calitatii cu cerintele standardelor internationale ISO-9001:2008. Atestatul i-a fost inmanat directorului general Christian Heinzmann, de catre Thomas Buschel – director general TUV Akademia/ reprezentantul conducerii TUV Thuringen, si de Andreas Drechsel – directorul Organismului de certificare TUV Thuringen. ”Sunt foarte mandru pentru ca, impreuna cu echipa TAROM, am finalizat cu bine si acest proces de recunoastere a calitatii serviciilor noastre, ale caror obiective se reflecta in satisfacerea asteptarilor clientului” - a declarat Heinzmann.
\n\nAir Baltic mizeaza pe un mixt de pasageri!”
\nLa trei ani dupa ce TAROM a renuntat la operarea rutei Bucuresti-Riga letonii de la Air Baltic au intrat pe aceasta nisa sperand ca vor face profit. Prima zbor a avut loc pe Otopeni la inceptul lunii. Oficialii au anuntat ca orarul contine 4 curse saptamanale (marti, miercuri, vineri si sambata), iar in sezonul de iarna numarul acestora va fi redus la 3. Zborurile sunt operate cu aeronave Bombardier Q400 NextGen si dureaza pana la 3 ore. Operatorul aerian se asteapta la 20.000 – 25.000 de pasageri pe an, dintre care 70% vor calatorii in vacanta, iar 30% in interes de afaceri. „Mizam pe un mix de pasageri in Romania dar si pe traficul etnic. Miscarea facuta pe piata romaneasca e integrata in initiativele noastre de relocare. Am renuntat la o serie de rute cu cerere slaba in sezonul de vacante\" - a declarat Christophe Viatte, chief commercial officer al Air Baltic, propietate intr-o proportie de 99,8% a statului leton.
\nDin Riga, zborurile pot fi continuate catre destinatii din zona Marii Baltice, Scandindaviei sau Rusiei, precum Sankt Petersburg, Stockholm, Oslo, Copenhaga, Vilnius ori Tallinn. Air Baltic ofera servicii spre 60 de destinatii.

Conform unei estimari, anuntate la o intanire cu presa, in primul an de operare vor fi adusi in tara noastra, numai pentru acest produs, circa 3.600 de turisti israelieni. În topul atractiilor preferate de catre acestia in Capitala Romaniei figureaza: Centrul istoric, Parcul Herastrau, Serile de folclor (in special cele de la restaurantele Pescarus, Voievodal, City Grill), respectiv zilele dedicate shopping-ului.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Meshek-Wings-City-1.jpg\" "\\"Meshek")
\r\n\r\n Meidan Butnaru, director comercial Meshek Wings Tours Ltd a precizat ca ”Proiectul pentru 2014, proaspat demarat, este creat impreuna cu partenerii nostri de zbor Blue Air si urmareste in special pachete city break pe Bucuresti, sejururi pe Valea Prahovei, aflate deja in derulare, precum si sejururi pe litoralul romanesc prin curse directe Tel Aviv - Constanta, incepand cu luna iunie. Ne asteptam, dupa inscrierile de pana acum, sa aducem in Romania, un total de circa 8.500 de turisti, dintre care 2.500 pe Valea Prahovei si circa 2.000 pe litoral”. Butnaru a mai afirmat ca ”un turist israelian cheltuie minim 100 de euro pe zi, la un sejur mediu de 4 zile. Astfel se ajunge la un total de peste 3 milioane de euro, iar daca socotim si celelalte servicii de cazare, transport etc. putem vorbi de alte 4 milioane. Multumim partenerilor nostri - Blue Air si Tarom, hotelierilor care au inteles nevoile turistului israelian iar cooperarea buna dintre noi ne-a ajutat sa putem realiza acest proiect. Pentru promovarea lui in Israel firma noastra a alocat peste 100.000 de euro.”\r\n\r\nLa randul sau Gheorghe Racaru, managerul general al Blue Air, a aratat ca ”Proiectul ne-a adus astazi in situatia de a implini un vis mai vechi, de a crea din Romania o destinatie importanta pentru turistii israelieni. Relatiile sunt foarte bune iar distanta dintre tarile noastre este una foarte mica, mai ales pe calea aerului. Au existat negocieri dure, ca in orice afacere, dar pana la urma am ajuns la un numitor comun. Ne-am implicat in proiect pentru ca de ani buni - Blue Air va aniversa in curand un deceniu de existenta -, ne luptam sa sustinem dezvoltarea turismului intern, a incoming-ului in special. Numai asa vom echilibra balanta cu plecarile turistilor romani in strainatate, si Romania va incasa mai multi bani din turism, unde vor aparea noi locuri de munca. Mai dinamice, mai inovative, mai bine platite”.\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nLIBER la pescuit de... vouchere\r\n
![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Tichete-de-vacanta2.jpg\" "\\"Tichete")
\r\n\r\n\r\nParlamentarii au aprobat Proiectul de lege privind voucherele de vacanta. Acest proiect a fost initiat de catre Asociaţia Naţionala a Agenţiilor de Turism (ANAT) inca din 2009, si sustinut de catre mediul de afaceri din aceasta industrie. Prin reintroducerea acestui instrument de plata, care nu este nou pentru bransa dar este actualizat la conditiile actuale, ANAT mizeaza pe cresterea turismului intern. Acordarea de tichete de vacanţa (vouchere, dupa modificarea actului normativ din 2009) este una dintre masurile prevazute si in \"Programul de guvernare pentru turism\" inaintat de ANAT autoritaţilor, in primavara. \"Legea este un mare pas inainte. Va duce implicit, la reducerea evaziunii fiscale. Estimam ca turismul intern va castiga un plus de 250.000 de turisti. În primul an de acordare a voucherelor valoarea lor va creste de la 200.000-300.000 de euro pe an, in prezent, la 4,5 milioane de euro si exponenţial, in urmatorii 3-4 ani. Cresterea ar fi putut fi de patru-cinci ori mai mare daca voucherele nu ar fi fost impozitate. În forma finala in care a fost votat Proiectul limiteaza la 10% comisionul agenţiilor de turism, o masura pe care nu o sustinem” - declara Lucia Morariu, liderul ANAT. La randul sau prim-vicepresedintele ANAT,\r\n\r\nConform altor estimari, facute de catre Federatia Patronatelor din Turismul Romanesc (FPTR), in cel mai pesimist scenariu prin utilizarea tichetelor de vacanta se vor introduce in circuitul financiar incasari de aproximativ 173 de milioane de euro anual. Din calculele FPTR rezulta ca dupa adaptarea pietei la acest sistem, se preconizeaza ca veniturile suplimentare ale hotelurilor si agentiilor de turism rezultate din vouchere sa ajunga la 400 de milioane de euro. La sfarsitul anului 2013, in Romania erau 5.113.075 de angajati, dintre care 1.183.698 de bugetari. Daca fiecare din cei peste cinci milioane de angajati ar primi vouchere de vacanta, valoarea maxima a tichetelor pe care le poate primi o persoana fiind de 5.100 de lei, atunci rezulta ca potentialul maxim al pietei este de peste 26 de miliarde de lei (aprox. 5,7 miliarde euro). Într-un scenariu realist, dupa ce angajatorii, hotelierii si agentiile de turism se vor obisnui cu acest sistem de plata, se va utiliza aproximativ 30% din capacitatea pietei, respectiv 400 de milioane de euro. Scenariul are in vedere posibilitatile financiare ale firmelor si disponibilitatea patronilor de a-si motiva angajatii, ceea ce reprezinta 3-8% din valoarea maxima a pietei. \"Cu alte cuvinte, prin utilizarea voucherelor de vacanta, se pot introduce in circuitul financiar incasari de 173 de milioane de euro pe an in cel mai pesimist scenariu. Ținand cont ca ne aflam la jumatatea anului, consideram ca actul normativ va fi operational, in cel mai fericit caz, la sfarsitul sezonului estival. Este unul dintre punctele slabe ale sistemului\", a declarat Mohammad Murad presedintele FPTR.\r\nFPTR are mai multe obiectii la contintul Legii voucherelor de vacanta. ”Un minus este mentinerea limitarii comisionului agentiilor de turism, care va duce la scaderea interesului acestora de a utiliza acest sistem de decontare. În acest context, turistii vor apela direct la unitatile de cazare si vor achizitiona servicii la nivelul tarifelor de receptie, adica cu 30-40% mai scump. Sunt, bineinteles, si foarte multe puncte tari. În primul rand, turismul romanesc primeste un ajutor solicitat de ani buni”, a adaugat Dragos Raducan, vicepresedintele FPTR.\r\n\r\nOrganizatia estimeaza ca circulatia turistica interna va creste cu 20% din primul an de introducere a tichetelor de vacanta, iar sumele incasate de stat din industria turistica, vor creste cu 7%.\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nNOI MANAGERI ÎN GDS\r\n

Doamna Roma Singh, directorul regional al Reprezentanței de la Frankfurt ne-a declarat, la București, că există un mare interes de a dezvolta parteneriate durabile cu travel agenții români, și în acest scop se dorește identificarea unor operatori interesați să dezvolte această piață. Ea a arătat că India a primit în 2013 circa 6,85 de milioane de turiștii străini. Prognozele guvernului indian pentru 2017 estimează o creștere a numărului acestora la peste 12 milioane. Pentru aceasta e nevoie, inclusiv pe piața românească, de o simplificare a acordării vizelor turistice și de o diversificare a zborurilor către India, în condițiile în care Air India are conexiuni directe din Germania. La rândul său Ramkumar Vijayan, asistent al directorului, a subliniat că printre atâte atracții culturale și naturale, India deține circa 30 de sit-uri care fac parte din patrimoniul mondial al UNESCO.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/IndiaFestival-Wangala-3.jpg\" "\\"IndiaFestival")

Cu un potențial turistic uriaș India și-a propus să fie mult mai agresivă pe piața din estul Europei, în condițiile în care prognozele arată că aceasta are un potențial dinamic de dezvoltare pentru industrial călătoriilor. Drept urmare în această vară o echipă de specialiști ai Reprezentanței de promovare a Indiei, pentru Europa, Rusia, Marea Britanie și Israel, au organizat un Road Show, care s-a desfășurat pe ruta Polonia, Ungaria și România sub sloganul de campanie ”Incredible India”. Evenimentul a fost consolidat de Asociația Touropertorilor din India (IATO) și Ministerul Turismului din această țară.\n
Doamna Roma Singh, directorul regional al Reprezentanței de la Frankfurt ne-a declarat, la București, că există un mare interes de a dezvolta parteneriate durabile cu travel agenții români, și în acest scop se dorește identificarea unor operatori interesați să dezvolte această piață. Ea a arătat că India a primit în 2013 circa 6,85 de milioane de turiștii străini. Prognozele guvernului indian pentru 2017 estimează o creștere a numărului acestora la peste 12 milioane. Pentru aceasta e nevoie, inclusiv pe piața românească, de o simplificare a acordării vizelor turistice și de o diversificare a zborurilor către India, în condițiile în care Air India are conexiuni directe din Germania. La rândul său Ramkumar Vijayan, asistent al directorului, a subliniat că printre atâte atracții culturale și naturale, India deține circa 30 de sit-uri care fac parte din patrimoniul mondial al UNESCO.\n

\nUn nou val de ambasadori turistici\n\n
În a treia Gală a Ambasadorilor Turismului Românesc, jucătorii de tenis Simona Halep și Horia Tecău, spadasinul Mihai Covaliu, studenta de etnie romă Anina Ciuciu, informaticianul Ionuț Budișteanu și violonistul Alexandru Tomescu au primit titlul de ambasadori și pașapoartele diplomatice aferente.
\nLa evenimentul organizat la complexul Stejarii Country Club de la pădurea Băneasa, Florin Jianu, ministrul delegat pentru Turism, a precizat că noii ambasadori onorifici vor fi implicați într-o serie de evenimente de promovare a turismului românesc. Jianu a arătat că ”Ministerul va derula o serie de caravane europene de promovare a brandului turistic, iar o parte din ambasadorii turismului vor fi implicați și în acțiuni de imagine la expoziții și târguri internaționale de profil, precum cele de la Berlin, Londra, Milano etc. Am speranța că aceștia vor deveni în același timp și modele pentru generațiile ce urmează”.
\nProiectul „România Promovată prin Valori” a fost lansat la inițiativa Departamentului pentru IMM-uri, Mediul de Afaceri și Turism în vara anului trecut.

\nKristina Rancane - MISS TOURISM EUROPE\n\nCe e frumos place tuturor. S-a confirmat și de data aceasta. 40 de tinere și-au etalat calitățile fizice și intelectuale în cadrul finalei Concursului internațional de frumusețe “Miss European Tourism 2014”. Actuala ediție a fost găzduită de elegantul Castel Cantacuzino din stațiunea Bușteni, locație care crește în prestigiu pe segmentul de evenimente. Aspirantele la Miss au defilat în costume naţionale specifice țărilor din care provin, în diferite piese de lenjerie intimă, dar și în ținute elegante, de seară.
Juriul a avut, ca de obicei o misiune grea și asta s-a văzut și în punctajul care a fost foarte strâns. Trofeul concursului și coroana de Miss Tourism au revenit lituaniencei de 21 de ani Kristina Rancane. Locurile 2 și 3 au fost ocupate de către Bleta Gashi din Kosovo, respectiv de Elvira Ivashenko din Ucraina. Titlul de ”Miss Bușteni” a fost câștigat de Mihaela Radu, reprezentanta României, iar Inga Ojog din Republica Moldova - a fost răsplătită pentru evoluția sa, cu premiul de Popularitate. Concurentele au avut ocazia să viziteze obiective turistice din oraş, zona de distracții Fun Park Kalinderu - unde au participat şi la un barbeque party -, dar și să admire împrejurimile din elicopter.

Primul funcționează la Govora și a fost refăcut complet, celălalt la București și face parte din 1997, din lanțul internațional Hilton. Mai există unul la Sinaia, în vecinătatea cazinoului, dar acesta e mai... bătrân cu 3 ani.\r\n\r\nAthenee Palace din București a fost conceput, ca să devină un centru al ospitalității și a serviciilor luxoase. Ca să se impună în acest fel s-a apelat la arhitectul francez Teophile Bradeau. Planurile sale au stat la baza construirii hotelului, deschis în 1914. El a fost amplasat pe locul Hanului lui Ivanciu Gherasi și, aspect de remarcat, a fost prima construcţie cu structură din beton armat de la noi din ţară. Lucrările au început în 1912 iar la finalizare clădirea dispunea de 149 de camere şi 10 apartamente decorate în stilul Louis al-XIV-lea, model inspirat de complexe similiare din Franţa şi Anglia. Athénée se putea lăuda cu o foarte bună amplasare. Era, şi este, foarte bine poziţionat, lângă Ateneu şi Palatul Regal, de aceea era foarte apreciat de elite în perioada interbelică\" - arăta istoricul Dan Falcan.\r\n\r\nCa întotdeauna istoria unui hotel e plină de savoare și picanterii. Athenee Palace nu face excepție. Pentru ce veneau mondenii Capitalei aici?\r\n\r\nCeaiuri dansante și recepții. Barul englezesc, braseria şi restaurantul de la Athénée Palace erau cele mai frecventate locuri în anii interbelici. Preferat în anii \'30 salonul „Le Diplomate“ figurează azi în Patrimoniul Național, fiind una dintre cele mai bine păstrate săli de recepţie din ţară. La rândul său „English Bar\" era unul dintre cele mai populare localuri din Capitală. Gama largă de cocktailuri şi de trabucuri care se găseau aici îi atrăgea pe bucureşteni. Nume sonore au trecut sau au fost găzduite aici - de la capete încoronate la prim-miniștri, ambasadori, generali, scriitori și dive hollywoodiene, la jurnaliști și spioni ai războiului mondial. În labirintul anilor s-au intersectat sau nu scriitori ca Geo Bogza, Octavian Goga sau Păstorel Teodoreanu, intelectual rafinat și gurmand de elită. De figura pitorească epigramistului a rămas legată această legendă hazlie: Până să ajungă în închisorile comuniste, Păstorel era un client fidel al barul hotelului. Într-o seară a ieşit puţin afumat din bar şi i-a dat 5 lei unui domn în uniformă, despre care credea că e portar, şi i-a spus să cheme un taxi. Bărbatul, iritat, i-a răspuns că este amiral şi nicidecum valet. Păstorel a ripostat fără să stea pe gânduri: „Atunci cheamă-mi un vapor\". Aici au fost cazate vedete de fotbal precum Marco Van Basten sau Edwin Van der Sar ori staruri muzicale renumite, printre care Joe Cocker, Sting şi Rolling Stones etc. Și președintele american Richard Nixon a locuit la Athenee Palace, pe parcursul vizitei oficiale, făcută în 1968.\r\n\r\nCare era atmosfera din interiorul hotelului? Dumitru Burtea, unul dintre seniorii artei culinare românești (personalitate a WACS, președinte de onoare al ANBCT și președinte executiv al organizației europene Euro Toques), pe vremea aceea ucenic practicant, își reamintește de atmosfera anilor \'60. ”Clienții erau primiți și conduși la mese după protocolul marilor case hoteliere. Ei erau serviți într-o atmosferă ce emana eleganță, iar personalul servea în restaurante la papion și mănuși albe. Fastul culinar se păstra iar noi putem spune că am avut o școală de artiști bucătari care s-au format și datorează enorm acestui hotel emblematic”.\r\n\r\nContesa Waldeck, corespondent Newsweek la Bucureşti, a încercat să reconstituie o parte din istoria legată de Athenee Palace. Ea scria, în anul 2000, o carte despre ”planeta” Athénée din anii \'40. Acolo menţiona faptul că hotelul era unul dintre punctele cosmopolite din Europa, atrăgând astfel membri familiei regale şi jurnalişti celebri. Cartea descrie evenimentele care au marcat România în anii 1940-1941, de la pierderea Basarabiei până la rebeliunea legionară şi defilarea „cămăşilor verzi\". De la o fereastra de la primul nivel, jurnalista americana Margaret Bourke-White a privit toate evenimentele care au marcat anii 1940-1941 pentru România: manifestațiile din fața Palatului Regal în cinstea revenirii la tron a Regelui Mihai, defilarea cămășilor verzi din 6 octombrie, ofițerii Wehrmachtului sosiți în capitală sau confruntările dintre legionari și armată. O prezență pitorească care a contribuit la păstrarea farmecului interbelic și în perioada comunismului a fost și barmanul de culoare Petrica Johnson, una din figurile jazzului bucureștean.\r\n\r\nHotelul a fost renovat de patru ori. În 1937 fațada a fost modernizată de către o echipă condusă de arhitectul român Duiliu Marcu. Tot lui îi aparține refacerea clădirii după bombardamentele din august 1944, care au avariat-o foarte grav. În 1965 a fost construită încă o aripă. Athenee Palace a fost din nou modernizat şi redeschis în 1997, când a intrat în portofoliul operațional al lanțului Hilton. Azi el oferă 272 de camere, dintre care 38 duble, 45 de apartamente şi 20 de apartamente de lux. Aniversarea a 100 de ani de la deschiderea hotelului a fost marcată de două mici expoziții cu piese ce amintesc de atmosfera de glorie a Athenee Palace.\r\n\r\nO serie de meniuri și preparate reînvie savoarea gastronomiei rafinate. Celebru e “Magret de canard cu andive și piure de cireșe”, servit de-a lungul anilor în faimoasa Le Brasserie. În Café Athénée, oaspeții se întâlnesc cu deliciosul tort aniversar Athénée Palace, ce ascunde în el ciocolată neagră, marțipan, nuci crocante, crema de brânză, gem de gutui etc. Turiștii pot testa și sofisticatul coktailul “Amalfi” – favoritul Contesei Waldeck, autoarea carții “Athene Palace”.

Nu trebuie să fugiți până în Elveția, Franța ori Austria. Aveți la doi pași Bulgaria. Nessebar și Sozopol sunt două bijuterii, care merită păstrate în buzunarul amintirilor de călătorie.\r\n\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" ids=\"3234,3243,3242,3241,3240,3239,3237,3238,3236,3235\"]\r\n\r\nNESEBAR - caută Moara de vânt\r\n\r\nÎn această vară vechiul sat de pescari, reinventat ca oraș turistic - slavă Domnului are ce arăta -, la Nesabar s-a încheiat un interesant proiect finanțat din fonduri europene. ”Încrederea în Nesebar” s-a concentrat pe restaurarea unei părți din patrimoniul cultural bisericesc alcătuit din 44 de lăcașuri de cult construite între secolele V și XIX. Dar și pe redarea acestora circuitului public ca spații pentru ateliere artistice, galerii de artă, spații pentru copii și săli cu destinații generale. În plus, animați de dorința de a promova operele de artă, multe dintre ele restaurate, specialiștii proiectului au conceput un ”Drum spiritual” cu o lungime de circa 350 de metri, ce leagă biserica Sf. Ioan Botezătorul de cea cu hramul Sf. Parascheva. Pe acest traseu vizitatorii au ocazia să se familiarizeze cu simboluri ale patrimoniului cultural bulgăresc. Însoțiți de un ghid local am căutat să vedem care sunt atuurile ce au stat la baza declarării orașului în 1983, drept parte a patrimoniului cultural mondial UNESCO. Vechiul Nesebar miroase încă de la intrare a istorie. Pe alocuri seamănă cu Centrul vechi al Bucureștiului. Chiar și ca elemente arhitecturale. Spre deosebire de capitala României, mica localitate se află pe malul mării, iar acest lucru i-a adus strălucire prin activitățile comerciale, dar și adversități pe parcursul istoriei. În primul rând Nesebar are o încărcătură antică iar turiștii au ocazia să înțeleagă aici de ce bulgarii îl consideră o perlă a patrimoniului național. Încă din 1956 e declarat rezervație arhitecturală și arheologică. Ruinele zidurilor fortificate antice datează din secolele III-IV.\r\n\r\nAlături de acestea impresionează cele peste 60 de vile vechi ridicate în stil bulgăresc cu cerdac (un balcon închis care iese în afara construcției). Acoperișuri și streșini amintesc de perioada Renașterii iar curțile minuscule sunt astăzi valorificate ca restaurante, cafenele, spații pentru suveniruri și demonstrații meșteșugărești. După ce ți-ai tras sufletul merită să descoperi și istoria numelui orașului.\r\n\r\nLa începuturi a existat o așezare tracică Melsambria, sau orașul lui Melsa. Romanii, care au construit apeducte și terme - erau tari oamenii ăștia la capitolul welness -, l-au botezat Mesembria, după care Hanul Krum (812) a extras din seva slavă actuala denumire - Nesebar. Puteți observa cu ușurință - admirând picturile și frescele bisericești - că aici a existat și strălucește, încă, o mare școală de pictură. Nu trebuie decât să intrați în galeriile de artă locale. În istoria sa orașul a fost și centru episcopal. Moara de vânt de la intrare vă amintește de activitățile comerciale, iar dacă ascultați cu atenție povestea Sirenei, veți afla și cîte ceva despre zidurile fortăreței antice, aflate sub ape la circa 80 de metri distanță de țărm. Dacă stați mai mult, nu ratați nici Muzeul de Arheologie, complet refăcut, iar seara spectacolul feeric de lumini. Invitații deschise pentru a reveni într-un loc unic.\r\n\r\nSOZOPOL - o rivieră ca-n povești\r\n\r\nLa Sozopol am început documentarea cu investițiile. La o masă de pește ne-am întreținut cu Ștefan Șarlopov. Bun cunoscător al industriei hoteliere, domnia sa este și președintele Organizației balneare naționale. El ne-a amintit de buna colaborare pe care o are cu organizația similară din România, condusă de Nicu Rădulescu. Șarlopov deține 5 hoteluri, în Germania dar și în Bulgaria, cu o capacitate totală de circa 1000 de camere. Probabil că s-a gândit să lase moștenire câte unul fiecărui copil. În 2013 a finalizat lucrările - prin trustul său de construcții -, la ”perla vieții mele”.\r\n\r\nEste vorba de Complexul rezidențial Sozopolis, în care a investit circa 60 de milioane de euro. ”Nu este un complex turistic ci unul de vile și apartamente de vacanță pe care le-am scos la vânzare. O parte dintre ele au fost cumpărate și de români. 21 de vile cu vedere panoramică, plajă privată, grădini de trandafiri, toate echipamentele moderne de spa, pentru refacere și relaxare, pun în valoare o parte din ruinele unei foste cetăți, descoperită în timpul lucrărilor, conservată ca patrimoniu istoric”. De altfel, proiectul Sozopolis a fost nominalizat în 2010 la premiul ”Arhitect of the year”.\r\n\r\nȘarlopov mai spune că ”românii sunt buni turiști, caută cultură și istorie, mâncare și vinuri de calitate. Ei ar trebui să vină mai des în Bulgaria pentru că au ce vizita. Mergeți să vedeți vechiul Sozopol, unul dintre centrele creștinismului timpuriu, care nu întâmplător înseamnă Orașul Mântuirii”. Tocmai de aceea vă recomandăm: o vizită în port unde veți afla că sub ape s-au găsit ancore și fragmente de nave, ce datează de pe vremea când se numea Apollonia Pontica, așezare fondată de coloniștii din Milet.\r\n\r\nNu ratați Festivalul Apolonia, dedicat artelor, ce se desfășoară în fiecare an între 1 și 10 septembrie. Nu ratați nici Templul dedicat zeiței antice Demetra și fiicei sale Persefona ce se află lângă complexul de mănăstiri Sfinții Apostoli și cei 20.000 de mucenici. Turnul de pe rivieră amintește de timpurile medievale ale primului Imperiu bulgar condus de Hanul Krum. Magazinele cu suveniruri, restaurantele, mărfuri locale de la vinuri până la sute de cosmetice pe bază de trandafiri, cele 180 de case concentrate în centrul vechi, azi sedii de bănci, firme de asigurări și instituții culturale, machetele vechilor corăbii de la Muzeul Arheologic, toate vă vorbesc de o destinație ce atrage anual milioane de turiști.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul MINISTERULUI ECONOMIEI, ENERGIEI ȘI TURISMULUI DIN BULGARIA\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nEGIPT - Prin labirintul zeilor, faraonilor și turiștilor\r\n\r\nDupă mai mulți ani de căutări sociale și dezbateri economice, pe leit-motivul libertate versus dictatură, Egiptul caută să se reinventeze prin turism. Un patrimoniu cultural și istoric fabulos așteaptă să fie reorganizat în noi formule de promovare, de imagine.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" link=\"file\" ids=\"3248,3249,3247,3246,3245,3244,3251,3250\"]\r\n\r\nNAS ÎN NAS CU KHEOPS ȘI SFINXUL\r\n\r\nDacă ați ajuns la Cairo, veți constata că două zone se află în permanență sub asediul turiștilor. Prima e alcătuită din Complexul celor Trei piramide și ansambul arhitectural dominat de Sfinx. Nu ne vom opri asupra istoriei lor care vă stă la îndemână oriunde. Piramida lui Kheops (Khufu) este cea mai mare, iar la vremea ei, în urmă cu 4.400 de ani, cu cei peste 147 de metri cât a avut inițial, era cea mai înaltă construcție din lume. În 1798 când Napoleon a cucerit Egiptul, fascinat de această minune a lumii, singura rămasă în picioare din cele 7, a calculat că piatra care a fost necesară acestei piramide, ar fi ajuns pentru a ridica un zid de un metru înălțime în jurul întregii Franțe. În vecinătate pe același platou Gizeh sunt amplasate piramidele lui Kefren (construita în jurul anului 2520 î.e.n., ea prezintă o înălțime de 136 de metri), respectiv a lui Mikerinos, o piramidă enigmatică, care prin secolul XII a fost la un pas de a fi dezmembrată. Piramida lui Kefren a fost restaurată recent, împreună cu alte șase vechi morminte din zonă, iar după trei ani de zile a revenit în circuitul turistic. Asupra lor ”veghează” Sfinxul care oferă, de oriunde l-ai privi, un spectacol încântător. Deși enigmantica creatură cu trup de leu și chip de om, era cunoscută primilor arabi sub numele de Abu al-Hol, adică Tatăl Groazei. Se crede că el îl redă pe regele Kefren, ca simbol al regalității și puterii.\r\nMuzeul de Egiptologie din centrul orașului este, fără îndoială, cel de-al doilea mare punct de atracție. Deși poți avea o reținere de a intra, curtea acestuia era înconjurată de blindatele și tanchetele armatei, o vei face cu singuranță. Aici se află adăpostite vestigii esențiale ale istoriei Egiptului. Nu vă faceți iluzii că-l veți străbate într-o zi. E imposibil. Dacă veți putea ajunge măcar la camerele tezaurelor, sălile mumiilor și ale sacofagelor, comorile lui Tutankhamon și celebra lui mască funerară din aur, sarcofagele aurite ale unor faraoni, la sfincșii de granit și statuile gigantice din piatră albă ori de alte nuanțe, capul sculptat în cuarț al lui Nefertiti, vă puteți declara mulțumiți. Colecțiile formate din circa 120.000 de piese și artefacte, au o expunere clasică, și sincer vorbind, învechită. În momentul documentării noastre o parte din galerii se aflau în reorganizare iar la parter era deschisă o expoziție permanentă. Ea reunește o parte din piesele restituite autorităților egiptene, de mai multe state și colecționari particulari. Un mic gest, o reparație morală după ce sute de vestigii au fost jefuite și golite de către căutătorii de comori, unii dintre ei deghizați în arheologi.\r\n\r\nGEM SE VA DESCHIDE ÎN 2015\r\nLa Cairo am aflat vești bune. Marele Muzeu Egiptean (GEM), supranumit și Muzeul Giza, se apropie de faza finală. Deschiderea lui a fost anunțată pentru 2012, apoi 2013, dar evenimentele politice și sociale au stopat lucrările. Noul muzeul a cărui inaugurare a fost anunțată pentru 2015 de către Ibrahim Ali, Ministrul Antichităților din Egipt, e amplasat la circa 2 kilometri de Piramide. Investiția (Muzeul se va întinde pe 50 de hectare) este estimată la circa 625 de milioane de euro. Concursul arhitectural pentru acest proiect a atras la vremea lui, în 2002, peste 1550 de propuneri, de la arhitecți și case de arhitectură din 82 de țări. Finanțatorul principal este guvernul japonez, care a acordat un împrumut rambursabil în 10 ani, după momentul inaugurării. O altă știre aparține Ministerul Culturii din Egipt. În casa în care a locuit Gamal Abdel Nasser (1918-1970), al doilea președinte din istoria Egiptului, va fi amenajat un Muzeu Național de istorie. El va fi inaugurat tot anul viitor. Ministrul Culturii, Gaber Asfour, a subliniat că scopul muzeului, este acela de a facilita înțelegerea “formării istoriei naționale a Egiptului”. Situat in Heliopolis, în Manshiat Al Bakry, muzeul va descrie viața lui Abdel Nasser. Acesta va fi al doilea Muzeu, din Cairo, dedicat figurii lui Abdel Nasser.\r\n\r\nPÂRTII DE SKI ȘI FÂNTÂNI CÂNTĂTOARE\r\n\r\nBazarul central va rămâne în continuare locul colorat și pitoresc al vechiului centru. Străduțele înguste, magazinele de suveniruri și de bijuterii din aur și argint, vor rămâne în topul preferințelor turiștilor. Pentru cumpărături, fotografii, filme etc. Dar în materie de shopping se scrie o nouă invitație. Împreună cu investitorii străini, egiptenii au început să proiecteze cu mai mulți ani în urmă, la ieșirile din marele oraș - care are o populație echivalentă cu cea a României în vremurile de glorie -, cartiere rezidențiale și zone comerciale. Proiectul Mall of Egipt, sau City Mall, ne-a amintit de la prima vedere de cele existente în Dubai. Dezvoltatorul zonei, compania Majid Al Futtaim Properties, este chiar din Dubai. Conform estimărilor Mall of Egipt va fi gata în întregime în 2015. Investiția depășește 686 de milioane de dolari. Complexul este ”decorat” cu fântâni cântătoare, adăpostește peste 310 magazine, dar și o frumoasă... stațiune de ski. Printre mărcile care s-au poziționat în perspectiva viitorului se numără Carrefour, Starbucks și Ikea, cu cel mai mare magazin din zona arabă.\r\n\r\nNILUL ȘI SECRETELE SUNRISE\r\n\r\n”Egiptul este cadoul Nilului!” scria în vechime Herodot. Iar Nilul este cadoul pe care egiptenii în fac vizitatorilor străini. Pentru că fără Nil nu ar fi existat probabil nici templele, palatele ori obeliscurile pe care le puteți vizita cu ajutorul navelor de croazieră. Dacă vă îmbarcați la Luxor, veți vizita apoi Karnak, Coloșii din Memnon, Valea Regilor, Templul reginei Hatshepsut. Apoi veți naviga spre Esna și Edfu, templu dedicat zeului Horus. În următoarele zile vă veți simți ca niște faraoni ajungând la Kom Ombo (nu ratați muzeul crocodililor, care au dispărut demult din apele Nilului), Aswan (o bijuterie de oraș), iar în apropiere Muzeul Obeliscului neterminat (o mare supriză), și Templul Philae. Dar, în mod sigur, faraonii se bucurau și de deliciile gastronomice. Asta am făcut și noi pe vasul de croazieră Semiramis 3, ce aparține companiei egiptene SunRise Resorts & Cruises. După cum ne spunea Sayed Younis, de 14 ani manager al vasului, acesta este unul dintre cele 8 nave de croazieră oferite turiștilor străini. Cea mai luxoasă pare să fie African Dream, care circulă la Cairo. Am apreciat confortul și calitatea serviciilor. Dar punctul forte al lui Semiramis 3 este familia de bucătari ce se ocupă de restaurant și preparatele gastronomice. Formată din bucătari cu experiențe acumulate pe acest vas, între 5 și 13 ani, ea e condusă de Chef Nasser Mahmud. Cei 5 Seniori Chefi - Sayed Mohamed, Josef Mohamed, Sayed Mahmoud, Attalla Mahmoud și Eltary Shaaban, oferă soluții armonioase pentru pentru toate preparatele - din pește, fructe de mare, pui, paste, vegetale etc. Eu am rămas cucerit de pescărie. În acest context merită să vă dăm și următorul sfat. Când cumpărați pachete all-inclusive pentru vacanțe în Egipt, deci și pe croaziere, asigurați-vă că sunt similare cu cele din Turcia, Grecia, Bulgaria etc. Nu de altceva, dar altfel veți avea supriza să scoateți zeci de euro pe zi din buzunar pentru o sticlă de apă, un pahar de suc sau de vin, o bere etc. Am pățit-o pe propriul portofel. În rest, drum bun și nu uitați - Egiptul are nevoie de turiști în aceeași măsură în care turiștilor le e sete de Egipt.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul

orașe cu valoare de patrimoniu\n\nVreți să aflați cum pot trăi unele așezări numai din turism? Nu trebuie să fugiți până în Elveția, Franța ori Austria. Aveți la doi pași Bulgaria. Nessebar și Sozopol sunt două bijuterii, care merită păstrate în buzunarul amintirilor de călătorie.\n\nNESEBAR - caută Moara de vânt\n\nÎn această vară vechiul sat de pescari, reinventat ca oraș turistic - slavă Domnului are ce arăta -, la Nesabar s-a încheiat un interesant proiect finanțat din fonduri europene. ”Încrederea în Nesebar” s-a concentrat pe restaurarea unei părți din patrimoniul cultural bisericesc alcătuit din 44 de lăcașuri de cult construite între secolele V și XIX. Dar și pe redarea acestora circuitului public ca spații pentru ateliere artistice, galerii de artă, spații pentru copii și săli cu destinații generale. În plus, animați de dorința de a promova operele de artă, multe dintre ele restaurate, specialiștii proiectului au conceput un ”Drum spiritual” cu o lungime de circa 350 de metri, ce leagă biserica Sf. Ioan Botezătorul de cea cu hramul Sf. Parascheva. Pe acest traseu vizitatorii au ocazia să se familiarizeze cu simboluri ale patrimoniului cultural bulgăresc. Însoțiți de un ghid local am căutat să vedem care sunt atuurile ce au stat la baza declarării orașului în 1983, drept parte a patrimoniului cultural mondial UNESCO. Vechiul Nesebar miroase încă de la intrare a istorie. Pe alocuri seamănă cu Centrul vechi al Bucureștiului. Chiar și ca elemente arhitecturale. Spre deosebire de capitala României, mica localitate se află pe malul mării, iar acest lucru i-a adus strălucire prin activitățile comerciale, dar și adversități pe parcursul istoriei. În primul rând Nesebar are o încărcătură antică iar turiștii au ocazia să înțeleagă aici de ce bulgarii îl consideră o perlă a patrimoniului național. Încă din 1956 e declarat rezervație arhitecturală și arheologică. Ruinele zidurilor fortificate antice datează din secolele III-IV.\n\nAlături de acestea impresionează cele peste 60 de vile vechi ridicate în stil bulgăresc cu cerdac (un balcon închis care iese în afara construcției). Acoperișuri și streșini amintesc de perioada Renașterii iar curțile minuscule sunt astăzi valorificate ca restaurante, cafenele, spații pentru suveniruri și demonstrații meșteșugărești. După ce ți-ai tras sufletul merită să descoperi și istoria numelui orașului.\n\nLa începuturi a existat o așezare tracică Melsambria, sau orașul lui Melsa. Romanii, care au construit apeducte și terme - erau tari oamenii ăștia la capitolul welness -, l-au botezat Mesembria, după care Hanul Krum (812) a extras din seva slavă actuala denumire - Nesebar. Puteți observa cu ușurință - admirând picturile și frescele bisericești - că aici a existat și strălucește, încă, o mare școală de pictură. Nu trebuie decât să intrați în galeriile de artă locale. În istoria sa orașul a fost și centru episcopal. Moara de vânt de la intrare vă amintește de activitățile comerciale, iar dacă ascultați cu atenție povestea Sirenei, veți afla și cîte ceva despre zidurile fortăreței antice, aflate sub ape la circa 80 de metri distanță de țărm. Dacă stați mai mult, nu ratați nici Muzeul de Arheologie, complet refăcut, iar seara spectacolul feeric de lumini. Invitații deschise pentru a reveni într-un loc unic.\n\nSOZOPOL - o rivieră ca-n povești\n\nLa Sozopol am început documentarea cu investițiile. La o masă de pește ne-am întreținut cu Ștefan Șarlopov. Bun cunoscător al industriei hoteliere, domnia sa este și președintele Organizației balneare naționale. El ne-a amintit de buna colaborare pe care o are cu organizația similară din România, condusă de Nicu Rădulescu. Șarlopov deține 5 hoteluri, în Germania dar și în Bulgaria, cu o capacitate totală de circa 1000 de camere. Probabil că s-a gândit să lase moștenire câte unul fiecărui copil. În 2013 a finalizat lucrările - prin trustul său de construcții -, la ”perla vieții mele”.\n\nEste vorba de Complexul rezidențial Sozopolis, în care a investit circa 60 de milioane de euro. ”Nu este un complex turistic ci unul de vile și apartamente de vacanță pe care le-am scos la vânzare. O parte dintre ele au fost cumpărate și de români. 21 de vile cu vedere panoramică, plajă privată, grădini de trandafiri, toate echipamentele moderne de spa, pentru refacere și relaxare, pun în valoare o parte din ruinele unei foste cetăți, descoperită în timpul lucrărilor, conservată ca patrimoniu istoric”. De altfel, proiectul Sozopolis a fost nominalizat în 2010 la premiul ”Arhitect of the year”.\n\nȘarlopov mai spune că ”românii sunt buni turiști, caută cultură și istorie, mâncare și vinuri de calitate. Ei ar trebui să vină mai des în Bulgaria pentru că au ce vizita. Mergeți să vedeți vechiul Sozopol, unul dintre centrele creștinismului timpuriu, care nu întâmplător înseamnă Orașul Mântuirii”. Tocmai de aceea vă recomandăm: o vizită în port unde veți afla că sub ape s-au găsit ancore și fragmente de nave, ce datează de pe vremea când se numea Apollonia Pontica, așezare fondată de coloniștii din Milet.\n\nNu ratați Festivalul Apolonia, dedicat artelor, ce se desfășoară în fiecare an între 1 și 10 septembrie. Nu ratați nici Templul dedicat zeiței antice Demetra și fiicei sale Persefona ce se află lângă complexul de mănăstiri Sfinții Apostoli și cei 20.000 de mucenici. Turnul de pe rivieră amintește de timpurile medievale ale primului Imperiu bulgar condus de Hanul Krum. Magazinele cu suveniruri, restaurantele, mărfuri locale de la vinuri până la sute de cosmetice pe bază de trandafiri, cele 180 de case concentrate în centrul vechi, azi sedii de bănci, firme de asigurări și instituții culturale, machetele vechilor corăbii de la Muzeul Arheologic, toate vă vorbesc de o destinație ce atrage anual milioane de turiști.\n\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\n\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul MINISTERULUI ECONOMIEI, ENERGIEI ȘI TURISMULUI DIN BULGARIA\n\n
\n\nEGIPT - Prin labirintul zeilor, faraonilor și turiștilor\n\nDupă mai mulți ani de căutări sociale și dezbateri economice, pe leit-motivul libertate versus dictatură, Egiptul caută să se reinventeze prin turism. Un patrimoniu cultural și istoric fabulos așteaptă să fie reorganizat în noi formule de promovare, de imagine.\n\nNAS ÎN NAS CU KHEOPS ȘI SFINXUL\n\nDacă ați ajuns la Cairo, veți constata că două zone se află în permanență sub asediul turiștilor. Prima e alcătuită din Complexul celor Trei piramide și ansambul arhitectural dominat de Sfinx. Nu ne vom opri asupra istoriei lor care vă stă la îndemână oriunde. Piramida lui Kheops (Khufu) este cea mai mare, iar la vremea ei, în urmă cu 4.400 de ani, cu cei peste 147 de metri cât a avut inițial, era cea mai înaltă construcție din lume. În 1798 când Napoleon a cucerit Egiptul, fascinat de această minune a lumii, singura rămasă în picioare din cele 7, a calculat că piatra care a fost necesară acestei piramide, ar fi ajuns pentru a ridica un zid de un metru înălțime în jurul întregii Franțe. În vecinătate pe același platou Gizeh sunt amplasate piramidele lui Kefren (construita în jurul anului 2520 î.e.n., ea prezintă o înălțime de 136 de metri), respectiv a lui Mikerinos, o piramidă enigmatică, care prin secolul XII a fost la un pas de a fi dezmembrată. Piramida lui Kefren a fost restaurată recent, împreună cu alte șase vechi morminte din zonă, iar după trei ani de zile a revenit în circuitul turistic. Asupra lor ”veghează” Sfinxul care oferă, de oriunde l-ai privi, un spectacol încântător. Deși enigmantica creatură cu trup de leu și chip de om, era cunoscută primilor arabi sub numele de Abu al-Hol, adică Tatăl Groazei. Se crede că el îl redă pe regele Kefren, ca simbol al regalității și puterii.\nMuzeul de Egiptologie din centrul orașului este, fără îndoială, cel de-al doilea mare punct de atracție. Deși poți avea o reținere de a intra, curtea acestuia era înconjurată de blindatele și tanchetele armatei, o vei face cu singuranță. Aici se află adăpostite vestigii esențiale ale istoriei Egiptului. Nu vă faceți iluzii că-l veți străbate într-o zi. E imposibil. Dacă veți putea ajunge măcar la camerele tezaurelor, sălile mumiilor și ale sacofagelor, comorile lui Tutankhamon și celebra lui mască funerară din aur, sarcofagele aurite ale unor faraoni, la sfincșii de granit și statuile gigantice din piatră albă ori de alte nuanțe, capul sculptat în cuarț al lui Nefertiti, vă puteți declara mulțumiți. Colecțiile formate din circa 120.000 de piese și artefacte, au o expunere clasică, și sincer vorbind, învechită. În momentul documentării noastre o parte din galerii se aflau în reorganizare iar la parter era deschisă o expoziție permanentă. Ea reunește o parte din piesele restituite autorităților egiptene, de mai multe state și colecționari particulari. Un mic gest, o reparație morală după ce sute de vestigii au fost jefuite și golite de către căutătorii de comori, unii dintre ei deghizați în arheologi.\n\nGEM SE VA DESCHIDE ÎN 2015\nLa Cairo am aflat vești bune. Marele Muzeu Egiptean (GEM), supranumit și Muzeul Giza, se apropie de faza finală. Deschiderea lui a fost anunțată pentru 2012, apoi 2013, dar evenimentele politice și sociale au stopat lucrările. Noul muzeul a cărui inaugurare a fost anunțată pentru 2015 de către Ibrahim Ali, Ministrul Antichităților din Egipt, e amplasat la circa 2 kilometri de Piramide. Investiția (Muzeul se va întinde pe 50 de hectare) este estimată la circa 625 de milioane de euro. Concursul arhitectural pentru acest proiect a atras la vremea lui, în 2002, peste 1550 de propuneri, de la arhitecți și case de arhitectură din 82 de țări. Finanțatorul principal este guvernul japonez, care a acordat un împrumut rambursabil în 10 ani, după momentul inaugurării. O altă știre aparține Ministerul Culturii din Egipt. În casa în care a locuit Gamal Abdel Nasser (1918-1970), al doilea președinte din istoria Egiptului, va fi amenajat un Muzeu Național de istorie. El va fi inaugurat tot anul viitor. Ministrul Culturii, Gaber Asfour, a subliniat că scopul muzeului, este acela de a facilita înțelegerea “formării istoriei naționale a Egiptului”. Situat in Heliopolis, în Manshiat Al Bakry, muzeul va descrie viața lui Abdel Nasser. Acesta va fi al doilea Muzeu, din Cairo, dedicat figurii lui Abdel Nasser.\n\nPÂRTII DE SKI ȘI FÂNTÂNI CÂNTĂTOARE\n\nBazarul central va rămâne în continuare locul colorat și pitoresc al vechiului centru. Străduțele înguste, magazinele de suveniruri și de bijuterii din aur și argint, vor rămâne în topul preferințelor turiștilor. Pentru cumpărături, fotografii, filme etc. Dar în materie de shopping se scrie o nouă invitație. Împreună cu investitorii străini, egiptenii au început să proiecteze cu mai mulți ani în urmă, la ieșirile din marele oraș - care are o populație echivalentă cu cea a României în vremurile de glorie -, cartiere rezidențiale și zone comerciale. Proiectul Mall of Egipt, sau City Mall, ne-a amintit de la prima vedere de cele existente în Dubai. Dezvoltatorul zonei, compania Majid Al Futtaim Properties, este chiar din Dubai. Conform estimărilor Mall of Egipt va fi gata în întregime în 2015. Investiția depășește 686 de milioane de dolari. Complexul este ”decorat” cu fântâni cântătoare, adăpostește peste 310 magazine, dar și o frumoasă... stațiune de ski. Printre mărcile care s-au poziționat în perspectiva viitorului se numără Carrefour, Starbucks și Ikea, cu cel mai mare magazin din zona arabă.\n\nNILUL ȘI SECRETELE SUNRISE\n\n”Egiptul este cadoul Nilului!” scria în vechime Herodot. Iar Nilul este cadoul pe care egiptenii în fac vizitatorilor străini. Pentru că fără Nil nu ar fi existat probabil nici templele, palatele ori obeliscurile pe care le puteți vizita cu ajutorul navelor de croazieră. Dacă vă îmbarcați la Luxor, veți vizita apoi Karnak, Coloșii din Memnon, Valea Regilor, Templul reginei Hatshepsut. Apoi veți naviga spre Esna și Edfu, templu dedicat zeului Horus. În următoarele zile vă veți simți ca niște faraoni ajungând la Kom Ombo (nu ratați muzeul crocodililor, care au dispărut demult din apele Nilului), Aswan (o bijuterie de oraș), iar în apropiere Muzeul Obeliscului neterminat (o mare supriză), și Templul Philae. Dar, în mod sigur, faraonii se bucurau și de deliciile gastronomice. Asta am făcut și noi pe vasul de croazieră Semiramis 3, ce aparține companiei egiptene SunRise Resorts & Cruises. După cum ne spunea Sayed Younis, de 14 ani manager al vasului, acesta este unul dintre cele 8 nave de croazieră oferite turiștilor străini. Cea mai luxoasă pare să fie African Dream, care circulă la Cairo. Am apreciat confortul și calitatea serviciilor. Dar punctul forte al lui Semiramis 3 este familia de bucătari ce se ocupă de restaurant și preparatele gastronomice. Formată din bucătari cu experiențe acumulate pe acest vas, între 5 și 13 ani, ea e condusă de Chef Nasser Mahmud. Cei 5 Seniori Chefi - Sayed Mohamed, Josef Mohamed, Sayed Mahmoud, Attalla Mahmoud și Eltary Shaaban, oferă soluții armonioase pentru pentru toate preparatele - din pește, fructe de mare, pui, paste, vegetale etc. Eu am rămas cucerit de pescărie. În acest context merită să vă dăm și următorul sfat. Când cumpărați pachete all-inclusive pentru vacanțe în Egipt, deci și pe croaziere, asigurați-vă că sunt similare cu cele din Turcia, Grecia, Bulgaria etc. Nu de altceva, dar altfel veți avea supriza să scoateți zeci de euro pe zi din buzunar pentru o sticlă de apă, un pahar de suc sau de vin, o bere etc. Am pățit-o pe propriul portofel. În rest, drum bun și nu uitați - Egiptul are nevoie de turiști în aceeași măsură în care turiștilor le e sete de Egipt.\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\n\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul AUTORITĂȚII EGIPTENE DE TURISM (ETA)','BULGARIA - Două orașe cu valoare de patrimoniu, MAPAMOND nr. 124-125','','inherit','open','open','','3233-revision-v1','','','2014-11-10 21:06:54','2014-11-10 19:06:54','',3233,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2014/11/10/3233-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(3253,1,'2014-11-10 21:22:07','2014-11-10 19:22:07','BULGARIA - Două orașe cu valoare de patrimoniu\r\n\r\nVreți să aflați cum pot trăi unele așezări numai din turism?

După ce ți-ai tras sufletul merită să descoperi și istoria numelui orașului.\r\n\r\nLa începuturi a existat o așezare tracică Melsambria, sau orașul lui Melsa. Romanii, care au construit apeducte și terme - erau tari oamenii ăștia la capitolul welness -, l-au botezat Mesembria, după care Hanul Krum (812) a extras din seva slavă actuala denumire - Nesebar. Puteți observa cu ușurință - admirând picturile și frescele bisericești - că aici a existat și strălucește, încă, o mare școală de pictură. Nu trebuie decât să intrați în galeriile de artă locale. În istoria sa orașul a fost și centru episcopal. Moara de vânt de la intrare vă amintește de activitățile comerciale, iar dacă ascultați cu atenție povestea Sirenei, veți afla și cîte ceva despre zidurile fortăreței antice, aflate sub ape la circa 80 de metri distanță de țărm. Dacă stați mai mult, nu ratați nici Muzeul de Arheologie, complet refăcut, iar seara spectacolul feeric de lumini. Invitații deschise pentru a reveni într-un loc unic.\r\n\r\nSOZOPOL - o rivieră ca-n povești\r\n\r\nLa Sozopol am început documentarea cu investițiile. La o masă de pește ne-am întreținut cu Ștefan Șarlopov. Bun cunoscător al industriei hoteliere, domnia sa este și președintele Organizației balneare naționale. El ne-a amintit de buna colaborare pe care o are cu organizația similară din România, condusă de Nicu Rădulescu. Șarlopov deține 5 hoteluri, în Germania dar și în Bulgaria, cu o capacitate totală de circa 1000 de camere. Probabil că s-a gândit să lase moștenire câte unul fiecărui copil. În 2013 a finalizat lucrările - prin trustul său de construcții -, la ”perla vieții mele”.\r\n\r\nEste vorba de Complexul rezidențial Sozopolis, în care a investit circa 60 de milioane de euro. ”Nu este un complex turistic ci unul de vile și apartamente de vacanță pe care le-am scos la vânzare. O parte dintre ele au fost cumpărate și de români. 21 de vile cu vedere panoramică, plajă privată, grădini de trandafiri, toate echipamentele moderne de spa, pentru refacere și relaxare, pun în valoare o parte din ruinele unei foste cetăți, descoperită în timpul lucrărilor, conservată ca patrimoniu istoric”. De altfel, proiectul Sozopolis a fost nominalizat în 2010 la premiul ”Arhitect of the year”.\r\n\r\nȘarlopov mai spune că ”românii sunt buni turiști, caută cultură și istorie, mâncare și vinuri de calitate. Ei ar trebui să vină mai des în Bulgaria pentru că au ce vizita. Mergeți să vedeți vechiul Sozopol, unul dintre centrele creștinismului timpuriu, care nu întâmplător înseamnă Orașul Mântuirii”. Tocmai de aceea vă recomandăm: o vizită în port unde veți afla că sub ape s-au găsit ancore și fragmente de nave, ce datează de pe vremea când se numea Apollonia Pontica, așezare fondată de coloniștii din Milet.\r\n\r\nNu ratați Festivalul Apolonia, dedicat artelor, ce se desfășoară în fiecare an între 1 și 10 septembrie. Nu ratați nici Templul dedicat zeiței antice Demetra și fiicei sale Persefona ce se află lângă complexul de mănăstiri Sfinții Apostoli și cei 20.000 de mucenici. Turnul de pe rivieră amintește de timpurile medievale ale primului Imperiu bulgar condus de Hanul Krum. Magazinele cu suveniruri, restaurantele, mărfuri locale de la vinuri până la sute de cosmetice pe bază de trandafiri, cele 180 de case concentrate în centrul vechi, azi sedii de bănci, firme de asigurări și instituții culturale, machetele vechilor corăbii de la Muzeul Arheologic, toate vă vorbesc de o destinație ce atrage anual milioane de turiști.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul MINISTERULUI ECONOMIEI, ENERGIEI ȘI TURISMULUI DIN BULGARIA\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nEGIPT - Prin labirintul zeilor, faraonilor și turiștilor\r\n\r\nDupă mai mulți ani de căutări sociale și dezbateri economice, pe leit-motivul libertate versus dictatură, Egiptul caută să se reinventeze prin turism. Un patrimoniu cultural și istoric fabulos așteaptă să fie reorganizat în noi formule de promovare, de imagine.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" link=\"file\" ids=\"3248,3249,3247,3246,3245,3244,3251,3250\"]\r\n\r\nNAS ÎN NAS CU KHEOPS ȘI SFINXUL\r\n\r\nDacă ați ajuns la Cairo, veți constata că două zone se află în permanență sub asediul turiștilor. Prima e alcătuită din Complexul celor Trei piramide și ansambul arhitectural dominat de Sfinx. Nu ne vom opri asupra istoriei lor care vă stă la îndemână oriunde. Piramida lui Kheops (Khufu) este cea mai mare, iar la vremea ei, în urmă cu 4.400 de ani, cu cei peste 147 de metri cât a avut inițial, era cea mai înaltă construcție din lume. În 1798 când Napoleon a cucerit Egiptul, fascinat de această minune a lumii, singura rămasă în picioare din cele 7, a calculat că piatra care a fost necesară acestei piramide, ar fi ajuns pentru a ridica un zid de un metru înălțime în jurul întregii Franțe. În vecinătate pe același platou Gizeh sunt amplasate piramidele lui Kefren (construita în jurul anului 2520 î.e.n., ea prezintă o înălțime de 136 de metri), respectiv a lui Mikerinos, o piramidă enigmatică, care prin secolul XII a fost la un pas de a fi dezmembrată. Piramida lui Kefren a fost restaurată recent, împreună cu alte șase vechi morminte din zonă, iar după trei ani de zile a revenit în circuitul turistic. Asupra lor ”veghează” Sfinxul care oferă, de oriunde l-ai privi, un spectacol încântător. Deși enigmantica creatură cu trup de leu și chip de om, era cunoscută primilor arabi sub numele de Abu al-Hol, adică Tatăl Groazei. Se crede că el îl redă pe regele Kefren, ca simbol al regalității și puterii.\r\nMuzeul de Egiptologie din centrul orașului este, fără îndoială, cel de-al doilea mare punct de atracție. Deși poți avea o reținere de a intra, curtea acestuia era înconjurată de blindatele și tanchetele armatei, o vei face cu singuranță. Aici se află adăpostite vestigii esențiale ale istoriei Egiptului. Nu vă faceți iluzii că-l veți străbate într-o zi. E imposibil. Dacă veți putea ajunge măcar la camerele tezaurelor, sălile mumiilor și ale sacofagelor, comorile lui Tutankhamon și celebra lui mască funerară din aur, sarcofagele aurite ale unor faraoni, la sfincșii de granit și statuile gigantice din piatră albă ori de alte nuanțe, capul sculptat în cuarț al lui Nefertiti, vă puteți declara mulțumiți. Colecțiile formate din circa 120.000 de piese și artefacte, au o expunere clasică, și sincer vorbind, învechită. În momentul documentării noastre o parte din galerii se aflau în reorganizare iar la parter era deschisă o expoziție permanentă. Ea reunește o parte din piesele restituite autorităților egiptene, de mai multe state și colecționari particulari. Un mic gest, o reparație morală după ce sute de vestigii au fost jefuite și golite de către căutătorii de comori, unii dintre ei deghizați în arheologi.\r\n\r\nGEM SE VA DESCHIDE ÎN 2015\r\nLa Cairo am aflat vești bune. Marele Muzeu Egiptean (GEM), supranumit și Muzeul Giza, se apropie de faza finală. Deschiderea lui a fost anunțată pentru 2012, apoi 2013, dar evenimentele politice și sociale au stopat lucrările. Noul muzeul a cărui inaugurare a fost anunțată pentru 2015 de către Ibrahim Ali, Ministrul Antichităților din Egipt, e amplasat la circa 2 kilometri de Piramide. Investiția (Muzeul se va întinde pe 50 de hectare) este estimată la circa 625 de milioane de euro. Concursul arhitectural pentru acest proiect a atras la vremea lui, în 2002, peste 1550 de propuneri, de la arhitecți și case de arhitectură din 82 de țări. Finanțatorul principal este guvernul japonez, care a acordat un împrumut rambursabil în 10 ani, după momentul inaugurării. O altă știre aparține Ministerul Culturii din Egipt. În casa în care a locuit Gamal Abdel Nasser (1918-1970), al doilea președinte din istoria Egiptului, va fi amenajat un Muzeu Național de istorie. El va fi inaugurat tot anul viitor. Ministrul Culturii, Gaber Asfour, a subliniat că scopul muzeului, este acela de a facilita înțelegerea “formării istoriei naționale a Egiptului”. Situat in Heliopolis, în Manshiat Al Bakry, muzeul va descrie viața lui Abdel Nasser. Acesta va fi al doilea Muzeu, din Cairo, dedicat figurii lui Abdel Nasser.\r\n\r\nPÂRTII DE SKI ȘI FÂNTÂNI CÂNTĂTOARE\r\n\r\nBazarul central va rămâne în continuare locul colorat și pitoresc al vechiului centru. Străduțele înguste, magazinele de suveniruri și de bijuterii din aur și argint, vor rămâne în topul preferințelor turiștilor. Pentru cumpărături, fotografii, filme etc. Dar în materie de shopping se scrie o nouă invitație. Împreună cu investitorii străini, egiptenii au început să proiecteze cu mai mulți ani în urmă, la ieșirile din marele oraș - care are o populație echivalentă cu cea a României în vremurile de glorie -, cartiere rezidențiale și zone comerciale. Proiectul Mall of Egipt, sau City Mall, ne-a amintit de la prima vedere de cele existente în Dubai. Dezvoltatorul zonei, compania Majid Al Futtaim Properties, este chiar din Dubai. Conform estimărilor Mall of Egipt va fi gata în întregime în 2015. Investiția depășește 686 de milioane de dolari. Complexul este ”decorat” cu fântâni cântătoare, adăpostește peste 310 magazine, dar și o frumoasă... stațiune de ski. Printre mărcile care s-au poziționat în perspectiva viitorului se numără Carrefour, Starbucks și Ikea, cu cel mai mare magazin din zona arabă.\r\n\r\nNILUL ȘI SECRETELE SUNRISE\r\n\r\n”Egiptul este cadoul Nilului!” scria în vechime Herodot. Iar Nilul este cadoul pe care egiptenii în fac vizitatorilor străini. Pentru că fără Nil nu ar fi existat probabil nici templele, palatele ori obeliscurile pe care le puteți vizita cu ajutorul navelor de croazieră. Dacă vă îmbarcați la Luxor, veți vizita apoi Karnak, Coloșii din Memnon, Valea Regilor, Templul reginei Hatshepsut. Apoi veți naviga spre Esna și Edfu, templu dedicat zeului Horus. În următoarele zile vă veți simți ca niște faraoni ajungând la Kom Ombo (nu ratați muzeul crocodililor, care au dispărut demult din apele Nilului), Aswan (o bijuterie de oraș), iar în apropiere Muzeul Obeliscului neterminat (o mare supriză), și Templul Philae. Dar, în mod sigur, faraonii se bucurau și de deliciile gastronomice. Asta am făcut și noi pe vasul de croazieră Semiramis 3, ce aparține companiei egiptene SunRise Resorts & Cruises. După cum ne spunea Sayed Younis, de 14 ani manager al vasului, acesta este unul dintre cele 8 nave de croazieră oferite turiștilor străini. Cea mai luxoasă pare să fie African Dream, care circulă la Cairo. Am apreciat confortul și calitatea serviciilor. Dar punctul forte al lui Semiramis 3 este familia de bucătari ce se ocupă de restaurant și preparatele gastronomice. Formată din bucătari cu experiențe acumulate pe acest vas, între 5 și 13 ani, ea e condusă de Chef Nasser Mahmud. Cei 5 Seniori Chefi - Sayed Mohamed, Josef Mohamed, Sayed Mahmoud, Attalla Mahmoud și Eltary Shaaban, oferă soluții armonioase pentru pentru toate preparatele - din pește, fructe de mare, pui, paste, vegetale etc. Eu am rămas cucerit de pescărie. În acest context merită să vă dăm și următorul sfat. Când cumpărați pachete all-inclusive pentru vacanțe în Egipt, deci și pe croaziere, asigurați-vă că sunt similare cu cele din Turcia, Grecia, Bulgaria etc. Nu de altceva, dar altfel veți avea supriza să scoateți zeci de euro pe zi din buzunar pentru o sticlă de apă, un pahar de suc sau de vin, o bere etc. Am pățit-o pe propriul portofel. În rest, drum bun și nu uitați - Egiptul are nevoie de turiști în aceeași măsură în care turiștilor le e sete de Egipt.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul AUTORITĂȚII EGIPTENE DE TURISM (ETA)','BULGARIA - Două orașe cu valoare de patrimoniu, MAPAMOND nr. 124-125','','inherit','open','open','','3233-revision-v1','','','2014-11-10 21:22:07','2014-11-10 19:22:07','',3233,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2014/11/10/3233-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(3254,1,'2014-11-10 21:30:45','2014-11-10 19:30:45','BULGARIA - Două orașe cu valoare de patrimoniu\r\n\r\nVreți să aflați cum pot trăi unele așezări numai din turism?

Dar și pe redarea acestora circuitului public ca spații pentru ateliere artistice, galerii de artă, spații pentru copii și săli cu destinații generale. În plus, animați de dorința de a promova operele de artă, multe dintre ele restaurate, specialiștii proiectului au conceput un ”Drum spiritual” cu o lungime de circa 350 de metri, ce leagă biserica Sf. Ioan Botezătorul de cea cu hramul Sf. Parascheva. Pe acest traseu vizitatorii au ocazia să se familiarizeze cu simboluri ale patrimoniului cultural bulgăresc. Însoțiți de un ghid local am căutat să vedem care sunt atuurile ce au stat la baza declarării orașului în 1983, drept parte a patrimoniului cultural mondial UNESCO. Vechiul Nesebar miroase încă de la intrare a istorie. Pe alocuri seamănă cu Centrul vechi al Bucureștiului. Chiar și ca elemente arhitecturale. Spre deosebire de capitala României, mica localitate se află pe malul mării, iar acest lucru i-a adus strălucire prin activitățile comerciale, dar și adversități pe parcursul istoriei. În primul rând Nesebar are o încărcătură antică iar turiștii au ocazia să înțeleagă aici de ce bulgarii îl consideră o perlă a patrimoniului național. Încă din 1956 e declarat rezervație arhitecturală și arheologică. Ruinele zidurilor fortificate antice datează din secolele III-IV.\r\n\r\nAlături de acestea impresionează cele peste 60 de vile vechi ridicate în stil bulgăresc cu cerdac (un balcon închis care iese în afara construcției).

După cum ne spunea Sayed Younis, de 14 ani manager al vasului, acesta este unul dintre cele 8 nave de croazieră oferite turiștilor străini. Cea mai luxoasă pare să fie African Dream, care circulă la Cairo. Am apreciat confortul și calitatea serviciilor. Dar punctul forte al lui Semiramis 3 este familia de bucătari ce se ocupă de restaurant și preparatele gastronomice. Formată din bucătari cu experiențe acumulate pe acest vas, între 5 și 13 ani, ea e condusă de Chef Nasser Mahmud. Cei 5 Seniori Chefi - Sayed Mohamed, Josef Mohamed, Sayed Mahmoud, Attalla Mahmoud și Eltary Shaaban, oferă soluții armonioase pentru pentru toate preparatele - din pește, fructe de mare, pui, paste, vegetale etc. Eu am rămas cucerit de pescărie. În acest context merită să vă dăm și următorul sfat. Când cumpărați pachete all-inclusive pentru vacanțe în Egipt, deci și pe croaziere, asigurați-vă că sunt similare cu cele din Turcia, Grecia, Bulgaria etc. Nu de altceva, dar altfel veți avea supriza să scoateți zeci de euro pe zi din buzunar pentru o sticlă de apă, un pahar de suc sau de vin, o bere etc. Am pățit-o pe propriul portofel. În rest, drum bun și nu uitați - Egiptul are nevoie de turiști în aceeași măsură în care turiștilor le e sete de Egipt.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul AUTORITĂȚII EGIPTENE DE TURISM (ETA)','BULGARIA - Două orașe cu valoare de patrimoniu, MAPAMOND nr. 124-125','','inherit','open','open','','3233-revision-v1','','','2014-11-10 21:30:45','2014-11-10 19:30:45','',3233,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2014/11/10/3233-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(3255,1,'2014-11-10 21:39:17','2014-11-10 19:39:17','MAGGIE\'S RANCH - o poveste despre tenis și cai\r\n\r\nVă plac poveștile de succes americane?

De loc e din Brașov. A jucat tenis, iar pasiunea s-a transformat ulterior într-o Școală de Tenis. În biografia sa apare absolvirea unei Facultăți de tehnologia lemnului, experiență ce-i va folosi într-un business unde viitorul l-a invitat la masă. În 1993, la 22 de ani, a plecat în Statele Unite unde a deschis o Școală de Tenis. Una dintre elevele sale se numea Maggie Curry, o tânără din Chicago, pasionată de echitație, performeră în mai multe competiții din SUA. Pasiunile celor doi s-au încrucișat, fiecare învățând de la celălalt, în ”barter” ca să spunem așa, secretele celor două sporturi nobile. Uneori, așa se întâmplă când prietenia se decantează, apare între oameni acel ceva care se numește iubire, sau acel ceva care nu înseamnă nimic. Ce a urmat? În 2005 Sorin se reîntoarce în România. Cu banii făcuți construiește împreună cu un asociat hotelul Regina din Sinaia, care promova pe piață 35 de camere și un restaurant cu 100 de locuri. Aici are loc, în 2008, și nunta celor doi care se mută la Brașov. La puțin timp după aceea Sorin își vinde pachetul majoritar de acțiuni la societatea care administra hotelul Regina, ajungând la concluzia că o afacere hotelieră, nu poate fi urmărită și dezvoltată de la distanță. O primă decepție sau se contura un alt proiect?\r\n\r\nAtât Maggie cât și eu ne-am gândit să ne continuăm hobby-ul. Pasiunea pentru cai și tenis. ”La început am cumpărat un hectar de teren, aflat întro poziționare foarte frumoasă la Râșnov. Apoi am mai achiziționat două hectare. Acum deținem 20.000 de metri pătrați. Sincer să fiu, pe atunci ne gândeam doar la pasiunea noastră. N-am avut nicio idee de business. Am amenajat un mic grajd pentru doi cai, cu care străbăteam, la fiecare sfârșit de săptămână, dealurile din împrejurimile Râșnovului. Dar pasiunea noastră s-a dovedit costisitoare. Cum să facem să ne amortizăm măcar cheltuielile de întreținere a cailor? O parte din prietenii noștri au vrut să vină cu copii pentru a-i învăța să călărească. Atunci ne-am gândit să amenajăm un centru de echitație și unul de cazare. La primul capitol a excelat Maggie. Ea a organizat ranch-ul pe tematica Western America, toate decorurile și echipamentele interioare fiind aduse din SUA. Partea de construcție și lemnărie mi-a revenit mie. Cu experiența hotelieră anterioară și cu diplomă de inginer specializat în lemn, am construit spațiul de cazare ce oferă 12 camere cu 29 de locuri, dotate cu tot confortul. Clădirile au farmecul lor dar piesa de rezistență ca lucrare este manejul. Conceptul l-am importat tot din State. El beneficiază de iluminare și aerisire naturală. Putem spune că după investițiile finalizate în 2013, acest loc a început să se transforme într-o mică afacere”.\r\n\r\nFerma ”Maggie\'s Ranch” deține13 cai. Dacă ajungeți aici întrebați de Guidi, Saphira, Cezar, Logan, Senna, Bella, Puiu, Lana, Mecca, Lady etc. Sunt o parte din exemplarele care încântă copii ce vin aici în weekend sau în taberele de echitație de vară. În cadrul lor sunt oferite ore de călărie, activități de familiarizare cu acest sport nobil, care includ discuții despre siguranța pe cal și în jurul cailor, psihologia cailor, precum și întreținerea lor și a echipamentelor de echitație. Pe lângă acestea în cursul zilei copii, se pot plimba și cu poney, pot lua parte la drumeții, excursii la Peștera Râșnoavei, la Cetatea din Râșnov, Parcul acvatic etc. Copii sunt supravegheați de personal calificat iar lecțiile de echitație sunt predate de profesioniștii ranch-ului. În funcție de starea vremii lecțiile se țin afară sau în manejul acoperit. Dar părinții, părinții ce pot face aici? Le stă la dispoziție un restaurant la care se pot comanda meniuri cu specific autohton sau american, nu ratați serile de BBQ, pot să se plimbe cu trăsura sau iarna, cu sania trasă, pot închiria una dintre cele 15 biciclete, frecventa piscina, jacuzii, sauna etc.\r\nDar povestea nu se termină aici. ”După mai multe vizite a apărut cererea din partea unor companii, pentru organizarea de evenimente. Sală de conferințe deținem deja. Pentru că nu aveam capacitatea necesară ne-am gândit să dublăm numărul de camere printr-o nouă investiție. Avem în vedere și un restaurant tematic, gen Steakhouse, care va avea nevoie de un bucătar specializat.”\r\n\r\nSorin și Maggie Marina sunt doi oameni care au construit o proprietate fermecătoare la Râșnov. Locul degajă energii speciale, iar cei care ajung aici, apreciază și valoarea spațiului dar și a timpului petrecut. La început a fost o poveste de iubire româno-americană. Ea continuă. Despre afaceri mai e timp să vorbim. Sorin se scuză, trebuie să plece, pentru că are ore la Școala de tenis pe care o deține în Brașov.\r\n\r\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU ','MAGGIE\'S RANCH - o poveste despre tenis și cai, REDESCOPERA ROMANIA nr.124-125 ','','publish','open','open','','maggies-ranch-o-poveste-despre-tenis-si-cai-redescopera-romania-nr-124-125','','','2014-11-10 21:39:17','2014-11-10 19:39:17','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=3255',0,'post','',0),(3256,1,'2014-11-10 21:37:18','2014-11-10 19:37:18','','Brasov 033','','inherit','open','open','','brasov-033','','','2014-11-10 21:37:18','2014-11-10 19:37:18','',3255,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Brasov-033.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3257,1,'2014-11-10 21:37:29','2014-11-10 19:37:29','','Brasov 033','','inherit','open','open','','brasov-033-2','','','2014-11-10 21:37:29','2014-11-10 19:37:29','',3255,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Brasov-0331.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3258,1,'2014-11-10 21:37:30','2014-11-10 19:37:30','','Brasov 059','','inherit','open','open','','brasov-059','','','2014-11-10 21:37:30','2014-11-10 19:37:30','',3255,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Brasov-059.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3259,1,'2014-11-10 21:37:30','2014-11-10 19:37:30','','Brasov 064','','inherit','open','open','','brasov-064','','','2014-11-10 21:37:30','2014-11-10 19:37:30','',3255,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Brasov-064.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3260,1,'2014-11-10 21:37:31','2014-11-10 19:37:31','','Brasov 075','','inherit','open','open','','brasov-075','','','2014-11-10 21:37:31','2014-11-10 19:37:31','',3255,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Brasov-075.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3261,1,'2014-11-10 21:37:32','2014-11-10 19:37:32','','Brasov 108','','inherit','open','open','','brasov-108','','','2014-11-10 21:37:32','2014-11-10 19:37:32','',3255,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Brasov-108.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3262,1,'2014-11-10 21:37:33','2014-11-10 19:37:33','','Brasov 118','','inherit','open','open','','brasov-118','','','2014-11-10 21:37:33','2014-11-10 19:37:33','',3255,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Brasov-118.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3263,1,'2014-11-10 21:37:34','2014-11-10 19:37:34','','Brasov 141','','inherit','open','open','','brasov-141','','','2014-11-10 21:37:34','2014-11-10 19:37:34','',3255,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Brasov-141.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3264,1,'2014-11-10 21:37:34','2014-11-10 19:37:34','','Familia Maggie & Sorin Marina','','inherit','open','open','','familia-maggie-sorin-marina','','','2014-11-10 21:37:34','2014-11-10 19:37:34','',3255,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Familia-Maggie-Sorin-Marina.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3265,1,'2014-11-10 21:37:35','2014-11-10 19:37:35','','Sorin Marina Director','','inherit','open','open','','sorin-marina-director','','','2014-11-10 21:37:35','2014-11-10 19:37:35','',3255,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Sorin-Marina-Director.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3266,1,'2014-11-10 21:39:17','2014-11-10 19:39:17','MAGGIE\'S RANCH - o poveste despre tenis și cai\r\n\r\nVă plac poveștile de succes americane?

Reprezentantii a peste 750 de membri FIJET de pe cele cinci continente, printre care si delegatia Romaniei, au marcat, intre 5 si 11 septembrie 2014, si implinirea a 60 de ani de la infiintare. In 1954 trei editori din Franta, Belgia si Italia, au creat federatia care se numeste astazi FIJET.\r\n\r\nThink Hungary more than expected\r\n\r\nPeste 150 de jurnalisti si scriitori de turism, realizatori de radio si televiziune, cameramani, din intreaga lume, s-au intalnit in sala de conferinte a Hotelului Flamenco. Conform unei vechi traditii tara gazda isi prezinta si etaleaza atu-urile turistice. Andreea Nemes, Secretar de stat pentru Turism, in cadrul Ministerului Economiei din Ungaria a subliniat, in speach-ul sau: ,,Este o mare placere sa va salut, din partea ministrului economiei din tara noastra. Turismul ocupa un loc special in economia Ungariei. 10-12% din populatie lucreaza in aceasta industrie. Cea mai mare crestere economica in turism am avut-o anul trecut cand ne-au vizitat tara 8,8 milioane de turisti, cu 15% mai mult decat in 2012.\r\n\r\nSperam ca in 2014, sa inregistram rezultate mai bune decat in 2013. Noi consideram ziaristii de turism drept cei mai importanti ambasadori ai turismului nostru. Presa este principalul vector de marketing si promovare. Multumim Domnului Tijani Haddad ca, la a 60 aniversare FIJET a ales pentru a doua oara Ungaria ca loc de desfasurare a evenimentului. Primul a fost in anul 1967. Avem acum ocazia de a mai deschide inca o fereastra spre lume, sa ne aratam bogatiile. Suntem constienti ca cerintele turistilor s-au schimbat.\r\n\r\nEi cauta, azi, informatii pe Internet cat si in media. De aceia jurnalistii de travel sunt foarte importanti. Multumesc FIJET Ungaria pentru ca a creat aceasta oportunitate. Sunt sigura ca veti pleca cu impresii frumoase. Cu ajutorul fondurilor europene am adus pe piata o multime de atractii noi si le-am reabilitat pe cele vechi respectandu–ne valorile traditionale. Am reusit sa atragem din ce in ce mai multi turisti tineri. Pe traseul dumneavoastra prin tara noastra veti vizita si orasul Pecs care in 2010 a fost Capitala culturala european cat si mica noastra mare - lacul Balaton.\r\n\r\nIn acest an, Budapesta s-a dovedit a fi unul dintre cele mai apreciate orase pentru shoppingâ€. La randul sau Zoltan Somogyi, director executiv la Organizatia Mondiala a Turismului (OMT), a subliniat: â€Datele statistice arata ca in primul trimestru s-a inregistrat o crestere a circulatiei mondiale de circa 5%, procent care e posibil sa se mentina. Un motor al acestei dinamici este, fara indoiala, presa de turism care s-a implicat constant in proiectele de promovare si a generat crestere economica.\r\n\r\nOMT este puternic convinsa ca scriitorii si editorii de turism vor continua sa dezvolte acest drum prin stabilirea unor parteneriate durabile cu comunitatile de turism. Unul dintre cele mai reprezentative este cel dintre FIJET si OMT. Interesul comun este benefic pentru ambele partii.\r\n\r\nVa felicit pentru aniversarea a 60 de ani de la infiintare.†Mark Kincses, seful departamentului de marketing international al Autoritatii de Turism si o veche cunostinta a revistei noastre, a oferit mai multe detalii despre noile campanii de promovare. In cadrul prezentarii sale â€Think Hungary more than expected†au fost proiectate imagini si simboluri vizuale care tintesc spre publicul tanar dar si spre cei care doresc sa descopere farmecul si savoarea unica a destinatiilor si traditiilor turistice ungare.\r\n\r\n 1 din 11 oameni lucreaza in turism \r\n\r\nPresedintele FIJET Tijani Haddad a confirmat ca unul din obiectivele fundamentale ale FIJET este acela de a promova turismul pe plan national si international. ,,Noi credem ca turismul este unul din factorii care poate face mai buna intelegerea intre popoare lumii. Astazi turismul da 9% din produsul mondial si 30% din exporturile lumii. 1 din 11 oameni de pe planeta lucreaza in turism. Acesta este un liant cultural care contribuie la o mai buna intelegere intre oameni si incurajeaza cunoasterea marilor comori culturale si turistice ale lumii.\r\n\r\nAstazi, diversitatea culturala, care este cea mai mare bogatie a turismului, este din nefericire amenintata de catastrofe naturale, pe de o parte iar pe de alta parte, cu activitati iresponsabile ale oamenilor. In ultimi 10 ani, fenomenele naturale, schimbarile climaterice, inundatii, cutremure, boli, conflicte au avut un impact negativ asupra industriei turistice. Criza economico-financiara si-a spus si ea cuvantul. Trebuie sa promovam turismul fara frontiera bazat pe respectarea mediului inconjurator, pe pastrarea si conservarea culturilor si traditiilor locale. Turismul este industria umana care se bazeaza pe relatiile interumane si care poate sa creasca numai prim intelegere, toleranta, dialog si diversitate culturala si universala†– a subliniat Haddad.\r\n\r\nCand te saruta... Paprika \r\n\r\nIn cadrul lucrarilor Congresului a fost aprobata afilierea organizatiilor ziaristilor si scriitorilor de turism din Maroc, Bosnia-Hertegovina si Ungaria. Totodata, a fost anuntata cooptarea in randul membrilor Board-ului a domnului Drago Bulc.\r\n\r\nReferindu-se la actiunile imediate presedintele FIJET a mentionat ultimul mare eveniment al anului. Decernarea in luna octombrie a trofeului Golden Apple (Marul de Aur) pentru Targu Jiu - Orasul lui Constantin Brancusi. Lucrarile congresului au fost imbinate cu tururi de cunoastere a principalelor obiectivelor ale Ungariei. Primul contact a fost prilejuit de turul de oras al Budapestei care a permis jurnalistilor prezenti sa faca cunostinta cu cele doua entitati ale capitalei Ungariei: Buda, un adevarat oras asezat pe malul vestic al Dunarii ce este strabatut de strazi vechi si stramte ce urca pana pe varful colinelor, o zona rezervat caselor rezidentiale, cu multe parcuri si verdeata, total diferita de Pesta care se afla pe partea estica a Dunarii, un furnicar aglomerat, traversat de numeroase mijloace de transport cu o viata de noapte tumultoasa. Am remarcat colinele Gellert la poalele carora se afla hotelul cu acelasi nume recunoscut pentru SPA-ul sau. Din toate punctele Budapestei, noaptea poti vedea faimosul monument Citadella, iluminat feeric. Nu poti sa nu remarci faimoasa si impunatoarea cladire a Parlamentului, Bazilica, Cladirea Operei, Academia de muzica, Piata Centrala, Palatul Artelor si Teatrul National dar si Bastionul Pescarilor etc. Nu sunt de ocolit nici cunoscutele bai termale ce dateaza din timpul imperiului otoman. Budapesta, oras asezat pe malurile Dunarii la confluenta dintre marea Campie Panonica si Dealurile Buda, ofera o imagine feerica, mai ales noaptea cand pe cursul Dunarii curg lin vasele de croaziera ce trec pe sub cele sapte poduri ce leaga cele doua orase, Buda si Pesta.\r\n\r\nPecs - asa ceva exista\r\n\r\nUrmand traseul indicat de organizatori am plecat cu autocarele spre localitatea Pecs. Pe traseu am facut cunostinta cu manufacturierii care ofera pietii cele mai faimoase vase de portelan de la Kalocsa, dar si cu artizanii care produc renumita Paprika. Tot la Kalocsa am fost martorii unui spectacol de calarie, care reprezinta o experienta unica ce merita traita intr-o viata.\r\n\r\nPecs, la randul sau, este ca marime al cincilea oras ungar. El are un minunat centru istoric, ziduri ale fostei cetati, muzee si multe fantani ornamentale. Dintre fabricile care au dus renumele orasului peste hotare ceea mai cunoscuta fiind fabrica de portelan Zsolnay. Aceasta a devenit miezul unui complex fabulos cultural, expozitional dar si arhitectural. In anumite locuri din vechea cetate, turistii merg pe trotuare de sticla si admira o parte din vestigiile si catacombele romane. Pecs are un centru istoric, dar si unul civic. Daca centrul istoric este unul plin de cafenele, restaurante si magazine, centrul civic este locul unde arta si cultura au reinventat viata. Centrul cultural a apartinut candva unei familii nobiliare maghiare, iar acum este o adevarata atractie turistica. Aici se afla si faimoasa fabrica de portelan, dar si cunoscutul Centru al Cunoasterii si Biblioteca Unica. Pecs detine si o \"Strada a Muzeelor\", unde se afla si Muzeul Vasarely, in memoria lui Victor Vasarely, inventatorul picturii optice sau \"op-art\". De la Pecs ne-am continuat drumul spre lacul Balaton.\r\n\r\nNe-am intors la Budapesta. In ultima seara a Congresului FIJET, pe vasul Europa, in cadrul cinei festive de inchidere reprezentantii familiei FIJET au marcat implinirea celor 60 de ani de existenta a organizatiei. In cadrul evenimentului si Clubul Presei de Turism - FIJET Romania, a primit pentru contributiile sale, medalia aniversara.\r\n\r\n MARIA SCHIFIRNET\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\nSTEFAN BACIU','BUDAPESTA: Congresul mondial FIJET - editia 56, TENDINTE nr. 124-125','','publish','open','open','','budapesta-congresul-mondial-fijet-editia-56-tendinte-nr-124-125','','','2014-11-10 21:55:10','2014-11-10 19:55:10','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=3267',0,'post','',0),(3268,1,'2014-11-10 21:51:39','2014-11-10 19:51:39','','Ungaria FIJET01 028','','inherit','open','open','','ungaria-fijet01-028','','','2014-11-10 21:51:39','2014-11-10 19:51:39','',3267,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Ungaria-FIJET01-028.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3269,1,'2014-11-10 21:51:50','2014-11-10 19:51:50','','Ungaria FIJET01 028','','inherit','open','open','','ungaria-fijet01-028-2','','','2014-11-10 21:51:50','2014-11-10 19:51:50','',3267,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Ungaria-FIJET01-0281.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3270,1,'2014-11-10 21:51:51','2014-11-10 19:51:51','','Ungaria FIJET01 252','','inherit','open','open','','ungaria-fijet01-252','','','2014-11-10 21:51:51','2014-11-10 19:51:51','',3267,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Ungaria-FIJET01-252.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3271,1,'2014-11-10 21:51:52','2014-11-10 19:51:52','','Ungaria FIJET02 286','','inherit','open','open','','ungaria-fijet02-286','','','2014-11-10 21:51:52','2014-11-10 19:51:52','',3267,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Ungaria-FIJET02-286.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3272,1,'2014-11-10 21:51:52','2014-11-10 19:51:52','','Ungaria bud 113','','inherit','open','open','','ungaria-bud-113','','','2014-11-10 21:51:52','2014-11-10 19:51:52','',3267,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Ungaria-bud-113.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3273,1,'2014-11-10 21:51:53','2014-11-10 19:51:53','','Ungaria bud 130','','inherit','open','open','','ungaria-bud-130','','','2014-11-10 21:51:53','2014-11-10 19:51:53','',3267,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Ungaria-bud-130.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3274,1,'2014-11-10 21:51:54','2014-11-10 19:51:54','','Ungaria bud 202','','inherit','open','open','','ungaria-bud-202','','','2014-11-10 21:51:54','2014-11-10 19:51:54','',3267,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Ungaria-bud-202.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3275,1,'2014-11-10 21:51:55','2014-11-10 19:51:55','','Ungaria bud 278','','inherit','open','open','','ungaria-bud-278','','','2014-11-10 21:51:55','2014-11-10 19:51:55','',3267,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Ungaria-bud-278.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3276,1,'2014-11-10 21:51:56','2014-11-10 19:51:56','','Ungaria buda doi 295','','inherit','open','open','','ungaria-buda-doi-295','','','2014-11-10 21:51:56','2014-11-10 19:51:56','',3267,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Ungaria-buda-doi-295.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3277,1,'2014-11-10 21:51:57','2014-11-10 19:51:57','','Ungaria FIJET04 127','','inherit','open','open','','ungaria-fijet04-127','','','2014-11-10 21:51:57','2014-11-10 19:51:57','',3267,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Ungaria-FIJET04-127.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3278,1,'2014-11-10 21:51:58','2014-11-10 19:51:58','','Ungaria Mark Kincses Director','','inherit','open','open','','ungaria-mark-kincses-director','','','2014-11-10 21:51:58','2014-11-10 19:51:58','',3267,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Ungaria-Mark-Kincses-Director.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3279,1,'2014-11-10 21:51:59','2014-11-10 19:51:59','','Ungaria Zoltan Somogyi director executiv OMT','','inherit','open','open','','ungaria-zoltan-somogyi-director-executiv-omt','','','2014-11-10 21:51:59','2014-11-10 19:51:59','',3267,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Ungaria-Zoltan-Somogyi-director-executiv-OMT.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3280,1,'2014-11-10 21:52:34','2014-11-10 19:52:34','BUDAPESTA: Congresul mondial FIJET -editia 56\r\n\r\nFederatia are circa 750 de membrii.

Nu poti sa nu remarci faimoasa si impunatoarea cladire a Parlamentului, Bazilica, Cladirea Operei, Academia de muzica, Piata Centrala, Palatul Artelor si Teatrul National dar si Bastionul Pescarilor etc. Nu sunt de ocolit nici cunoscutele bai termale ce dateaza din timpul imperiului otoman. Budapesta, oras asezat pe malurile Dunarii la confluenta dintre marea Campie Panonica si Dealurile Buda, ofera o imagine feerica, mai ales noaptea cand pe cursul Dunarii curg lin vasele de croaziera ce trec pe sub cele sapte poduri ce leaga cele doua orase, Buda si Pesta.\r\n\r\nPecs - asa ceva exista\r\n\r\nUrmand traseul indicat de organizatori am plecat cu autocarele spre localitatea Pecs. Pe traseu am facut cunostinta cu manufacturierii care ofera pietii cele mai faimoase vase de portelan de la Kalocsa, dar si cu artizanii care produc renumita Paprika. Tot la Kalocsa am fost martorii unui spectacol de calarie, care reprezinta o experienta unica ce merita traita intr-o viata.\r\n\r\nPecs, la randul sau, este ca marime al cincilea oras ungar. El are un minunat centru istoric, ziduri ale fostei cetati, muzee si multe fantani ornamentale. Dintre fabricile care au dus renumele orasului peste hotare ceea mai cunoscuta fiind fabrica de portelan Zsolnay. Aceasta a devenit miezul unui complex fabulos cultural, expozitional dar si arhitectural. In anumite locuri din vechea cetate, turistii merg pe trotuare de sticla si admira o parte din vestigiile si catacombele romane. Pecs are un centru istoric, dar si unul civic. Daca centrul istoric este unul plin de cafenele, restaurante si magazine, centrul civic este locul unde arta si cultura au reinventat viata. Centrul cultural a apartinut candva unei familii nobiliare maghiare, iar acum este o adevarata atractie turistica. Aici se afla si faimoasa fabrica de portelan, dar si cunoscutul Centru al Cunoasterii si Biblioteca Unica. Pecs detine si o \"Strada a Muzeelor\", unde se afla si Muzeul Vasarely, in memoria lui Victor Vasarely, inventatorul picturii optice sau \"op-art\". De la Pecs ne-am continuat drumul spre lacul Balaton.\r\n\r\nNe-am intors la Budapesta. In ultima seara a Congresului FIJET, pe vasul Europa, in cadrul cinei festive de inchidere reprezentantii familiei FIJET au marcat implinirea celor 60 de ani de existenta a organizatiei. In cadrul evenimentului si Clubul Presei de Turism - FIJET Romania, a primit pentru contributiile sale, medalia aniversara.\r\n\r\n MARIA SCHIFIRNET\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\nSTEFAN BACIU','BUDAPESTA: Congresul mondial FIJET - editia 56, TENDINTE nr. 124-125','','inherit','open','open','','3267-revision-v1','','','2014-11-10 21:55:10','2014-11-10 19:55:10','',3267,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2014/11/10/3267-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(3387,1,'2015-01-27 00:39:18','2015-01-26 22:39:18','Cum se poate naşte un simbol: IA\r\n

\r\nO cărticică îngustă cât palma, elegantă şi simplă, prezintă ia românească pe înţelesul tuturor, în română şi engleză. A apărut la Paideia. Doina Berchina porneşte în „Povestea iei” de la ceramica de Cucuteni, aminteşte de pasiunea Reginei Maria pentru costumul popular românesc dar selectează, pe lângă fotografii de epocă, şi tablouri ori schiţe ale artiştilor care au reprezentat femei purtând această piesă vestimentară (Amedeo Preziosi, Nicolae Grigorescu, Henry Matisse). Revenită la modă, ia românească a inspirat creatorii contemporani (Oscar de la Renta, Kenzo, Yves Saint Laurent) şi, într-un final, ar putea deveni un simbol, de ce nu o altă formă de promovare a ţării. Amintind că anul trecut data de 24 iunie a fost declarată „Ziua Internaţională a iei” Doina Berchină ajunge la concluzia că: „Ia este până la urmă, o necesară şi din când în când stimulatoare căutare a rădăcinilor pe drumul definirii propriei identităţi, dar şi o modă cu o apăsată componentă etno apreciată mai ales de străini. Dar şi o frondă...”\r\n\r\n\r\nAlba Iulia a crescut şi vrea turişti!\r\n![\"carte](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/carte-alba-Iulia.jpg\")
\r\nLucrarea a fost pregătită de către inginerul Alexandru Borza pentru anul 1976, în cadrul unui proiect finanţat atunci de Institutul de Cercetări pentru Turism. Republicarea ei s-a făcut anul acesta. Pe bună dreptate v-aţi putea întreba ce importanţă mai are acum un studiu atât de vechi despre potenţialul turistic din Alba!? Merită să parcurgeţi cartea, chiar şi numai cu titlu comparativ. „Valorificarea turistică a patrimoniului material şi imaterial al Judeţului Alba” descrie riguros regiunea, traseele dar şi obiectivele turistice. Inginerul Borza a călătorit şi a studiat zona cu ochiul unui cunoscător iar ideile sale de investiţii şi calculele propuse pot echivala cu un „master plan” modern. Informaţiile sunt actualizate de profesorul Nicolae Lupu. După 40 de ani Colecţia permanentă de etnografie visată de Borza completează acum Muzeul Unirii, Sala Mare a Peşterii Gheţarul de la Scărişoara este iluminată cu leduri, iar Alba Iulia trăieşte o nouă viaţă: are o superbă cetate Vauban unică în România. În aceeaşi zi, în acelaşi spaţiu, te plimbi printre bastioane şi porţi imperiale, figuri ale celor ce au gândit şi trăit Unirea Transilvaniei cu România. „Valorificarea turistică a patrimoniului material şi imaterial al Judeţului Alba”, editată de Altip - Alba Iulia, este încă un argument pentru a vă programa o vacanţă aici.\r\n\r\nInvitaţie pentru suflet\r\n![\"carte](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/carte-Romania.jpg\")
„Made in Romania” este un nou album ale cărui fotografii poartă amprenta lui Florin Andreescu. Artistul, împreună cu Mariana Pascaru, editoarea textului, aduc în faţa turistului străin, necunoscător de România, 10 motive pentru a-şi alege ţara ca următoare destinaţie. Natura, oamenii dar şi interesantele perioade politice traversate de ţară apar menţionate deopotrivă. Albumul este un format mic, accesibil, iar fotografiile transmit, aşa cum ne-a obişnuit în timp autorul, despre un spirit bun, ingenu, idilic pur al locurilor. Piscurile munţilor înroşite de soarele de apus, răsăritul alburiu peste copacii în floare ai Maramureşului, drumuri de ţară cu flori de câmp adunate pe margini, brazde tăiate geometric şi şiruri la fel de frumos ordonate de pari pentru viţa de vie stau alături de păsările Deltei şi de tinerii, perechi moderne, pe străzile Bucureştiului.

Ceea ce este imposibil. Asistăm la o eroare... promoțională. În mod sigur s-au luat în calcul navele maritime de croazieră ce trec prin Marea Neagră și trag la Constanța. Capacitățile lor pornesc de la 1.000 de locuri în sus. Așa s-ar mai drege busuiocul... cifrelor. Dar e vorba de o altă oală și o altă mâncare de pește.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nDoriţi să citiţi toată revista?

Ele au fost desfasurate în colaborare cu Institutul Diplomatic Roman. Ambasadorul Republicii Africii de Sud la Bucuresti ES Thenjiwe Ethel Mtintso, a fost gazda ideala pentru reprezentantii corpului diplomatic acreditat la Bucuresti, presa si oficialitatile romane de la ministerele de Externe (Liliana Burlacu), al Muncii (Rovana Plumb), ai Comisiei Europeane la Bucuresti (Angela Filote), voluntari în domeniul activismului feminin. Discutiile s-au concentrat pe rolul femeilor în societatea sud-africana si nu numai. Tabloul evolutiei activisului feminin în aceasta tara a fost prezentat de carismaticul ambasador cu verva, caldura si mult umor reusind sa creeze o imagine vibranta si plina de viata a femeii africane. Generozitatea subiectului a oferit prilejul ambasadoarei Mtintso sa lanseze invitatia de a vizita tara pe care o reprezinta. Costumul sau exprima traditiile regiunii Kwazulu Natal, spectaculoasa si unica, ce emana ospitalitatea acestui popor.\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nNICOLAE VOICULEȚ: Concert unicat pe Caraiman\r\n![\"Ev](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/Ev-cruce-568.jpg\")
\r\n\r\n\r\nDe Ziua Crucii, Monumentul “Crucea Eroilor Neamului” de la Caraiman a fost martorul unui eveniment unic în istoria muzicii. Artistul Nicolae Voiculeţ a sustinut împreuna cu invitaţii speciali - printre care Ansamblul de tulnicarese din satul Avram Iancu din Muntii Apuseni si Ansamblul de calusari de la Slatina -, un concert omagial adus celor peste un milion de eroi ai neamului, cazuţi în cele doua Razboaie Mondiale, cu ocazia implinirii a 100 de ani de la declansarea primului Razboi Mondial. În seara aceleiasi zile, în cadrul unui maraton artistic, Castelul Cantacuzino din Busteni a gazduit concertul caritabil “Romania, din inima ta”.\r\nSpectacolul de la Crucea Caraiman face parte din turneul “Romania, din inima ta”. “Conceptul turneului doreste sa marcheze trezirea inimii si a constiinţei fiecarui roman în fata valorilor autentice: eroi, istorie, radacini, regalitate, acasa, familie. Repertoriul conţine lucrari din patrimoniul romanesc, printre care Calusul, Ciocarlia, Doina Sperantei si altele. Legatura dintre nai, turism si brand de ţara este foarte profunda. Naiul în sine, prin puterea si sunetele lui, reprezinta o parte a turismului si a identitaţii romanesti. Naiul este cel mai vechi instrument din lume, iar Romania este patria naiului” - declara artistul Nicolae Voiculeţ.\r\n\r\nEvenimentul a fost organizat de catre Asociaţia Culturala “Nicolae Voiculeţ”, Asociaţia Exploring Culture si Innovation Travel, cu sprijinul ANT, al ICR, al Primariei orasului Busteni si al Jandarmeriei Romane.

Am plecat la drum cu sloganul „We put a smile on peoples faces”, iar acest mare proiect s-a concentrat pe implementarea unei culturi organizatorice bazate pe servicii de excelentã si inovare.

Lucrarile fac parte din ciclul Another Language, prezentat în premiera, în urma cu un an la Bochum (Germania). Vizitatorii au savurat experimentele cromatice si vizuale ce au îmbinat limbajul vizual cu cel comun. ”Toti accesam perspective de exprimare relativ comune, dar ne exprimam diferit si aici suntem marcati de felul nostru de a gandi.

Campania este sustinuta de BNP PARIBAS CARDIF si casa de avocatura Tuca Zbarcea & Asociatii. “Bilet catre o lume noua” a oferit posibilitatea unui grup de copii talentati, dar fara sustinere financiara, de a participa în luna octombrie la un program de dezvoltare personala prin turism, la Sibiu.

Ele au fost desfasurate în colaborare cu Institutul Diplomatic Roman. Ambasadorul Republicii Africii de Sud la Bucuresti ES Thenjiwe Ethel Mtintso, a fost gazda ideala pentru reprezentantii corpului diplomatic acreditat la Bucuresti, presa si oficialitatile romane de la ministerele de Externe (Liliana Burlacu), al Muncii (Rovana Plumb), ai Comisiei Europeane la Bucuresti (Angela Filote), voluntari în domeniul activismului feminin. Discutiile s-au concentrat pe rolul femeilor în societatea sud-africana si nu numai. Tabloul evolutiei activisului feminin în aceasta tara a fost prezentat de carismaticul ambasador cu verva, caldura si mult umor reusind sa creeze o imagine vibranta si plina de viata a femeii africane. Generozitatea subiectului a oferit prilejul ambasadoarei Mtintso sa lanseze invitatia de a vizita tara pe care o reprezinta. Costumul sau exprima traditiile regiunii Kwazulu Natal, spectaculoasa si unica, ce emana ospitalitatea acestui popor.\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nNICOLAE VOICULEȚ: Concert unicat pe Caraiman\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nDe Ziua Crucii, Monumentul “Crucea Eroilor Neamului” de la Caraiman a fost martorul unui eveniment unic în istoria muzicii. Artistul Nicolae Voiculeţ a sustinut împreuna cu invitaţii speciali - printre care Ansamblul de tulnicarese din satul Avram Iancu din Muntii Apuseni si Ansamblul de calusari de la Slatina -, un concert omagial adus celor peste un milion de eroi ai neamului, cazuţi în cele doua Razboaie Mondiale, cu ocazia implinirii a 100 de ani de la declansarea primului Razboi Mondial. În seara aceleiasi zile, în cadrul unui maraton artistic, Castelul Cantacuzino din Busteni a gazduit concertul caritabil “Romania, din inima ta”.\r\nSpectacolul de la Crucea Caraiman face parte din turneul “Romania, din inima ta”. “Conceptul turneului doreste sa marcheze trezirea inimii si a constiinţei fiecarui roman în fata valorilor autentice: eroi, istorie, radacini, regalitate, acasa, familie. Repertoriul conţine lucrari din patrimoniul romanesc, printre care Calusul, Ciocarlia, Doina Sperantei si altele. Legatura dintre nai, turism si brand de ţara este foarte profunda. Naiul în sine, prin puterea si sunetele lui, reprezinta o parte a turismului si a identitaţii romanesti. Naiul este cel mai vechi instrument din lume, iar Romania este patria naiului” - declara artistul Nicolae Voiculeţ.\r\n\r\nEvenimentul a fost organizat de catre Asociaţia Culturala “Nicolae Voiculeţ”, Asociaţia Exploring Culture si Innovation Travel, cu sprijinul ANT, al ICR, al Primariei orasului Busteni si al Jandarmeriei Romane. Traveller Magazin a fost unul dintre partenerii media ai manifestarii.\r\nMARA ANTON\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nTUI TravelCenter - 3 ani\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nS-au împlinit 3 ani de cand grupul Grupul Eurolines lansa pe piata romaneascã brand-ul TUI TravelCenter. Acel moment a fost marcat de semnarea unui parteneriat strategic cu cel mai mare grup de turism din lume, TUI Travel PLC. Cat a reusit sã realizeze în acesti ani cea mai mare retea de agentii de turism din Romania ce tintea standardele internationale pentru distributia produselor turistice? Dragos Anastasiu, liderul grupului Eurolines apreciazã cã: ”Marea noastrã reusitã a fost crearea unei familii profesioniste . Aceasta a înteles cã numai prin fidelizarea clientilor se poate dezvolta sustenabil si continuu, iar rezultatele financiare nu sunt altceva decat consecinta feedback-ului pozitiv acordat de clienti. Am plecat la drum cu sloganul „We put a smile on peoples faces”, iar acest mare proiect s-a concentrat pe implementarea unei culturi organizatorice bazate pe servicii de excelentã si inovare. Cifra de afaceri a crescut fatã de 2011 de la 31 de milioane la 66 milioane de euro, iar numãrul agentiilor de vanzãri turistice a crescut de la de la 52 la 77, dintre care 47 TUI TravelCenter”. Grupul Eurolines este alcãtuit din 20 de companii.\r\nALEX BARBU\r\n\r\nBZN - Ambasador muzical al turismului\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nGrupul olandez BZN a anuntat, în cadrul unei conferinte de presa, lansarea videoclipului ”Drumurile Noastre” în care apare imaginea celebrului interpret roman Dan Spataru. BZN (Jan Keizer & Anny Schilder) a înregistrat acest videoclip în Romania, într-o locatie splendida, Castelul Regal Peles. Melodia va fi prezentata de trupa BZN, într-un concert ce-l va sustine pe 4 decembrie la Sala Palatului din Bucuresti. Anny si Jan spun ca se simt ca acasa în Romania unde au dat numeroase concerte în ultimii ani. ”Speram ca publicul sa fie încantat si sa înregistram un nou succes BNZ în Romania, dupa Blue Eyes si Dance Dance!” Turneul este organizat de firma German Quality Entertainment, condusa de impresarul german Christian Raetscher nascut în Romania.\r\nVASILE COSTRUȘ\r\n\r\nSIBIUL COCHETEAZĂ CU TOP-URI AMERICANE\r\n\r\n\r\nThe Huffington Post a publicat un top al celor mai fermecatoare orase din Europa. În acesta se afla si orasul Sibiu din Romania. Alaturi de burgul transilvanean, pe lista recomandata de site-ul american se mai afla: Bibury - „cel mai frumos sat” din Marea Britanie, Giethoorn sau „Venetia Olandei”, Eguisheim si Colmar (o capitala a vinului) din Franta, Bruges (canale, strazi pietruite, centru istoric) din Belgia, Gruyeres (si faimoasa branza) din Elvetia, Alberobello (Italia) si Cesky Krumlov (a doua Praga a turismului) din Republica Ceha.\r\n\r\nLA FANFARE ÎNAINTE!\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nMuzeul Naţional al Satului “Dimitrie Gusti”, a fost gazda la jumatatea acestei luni a celei de-a IX-a ediţii a Festivalului Tarafuri si Fanfare. Muzicanţi batrani au povestit despre cantece uitate, aducand în lumina prezentului eroii fara seaman ai baladelor. Taraful Gorjului, Comunitatea din Vinerea (Alba), Fanfara din Forasti (Suceava) si Taraful vlascean al haiducilor din Clejani (Giurgiu), Fanfara din Saelele (Teleorman), Taraful din Babiciu (Olt), Taraful lui Vasile Firuţa din Islaz (Teleorman), Danţausii si fluierasul din Idicelul de Padure (Mures) si Fanfara bucovineana din Forasti au încantat timp de doua zile spectatorii reuniti de Miscarea de rezistenta, organizatie ce îsi pune din nou semnatura pe o editie unica.\r\nBUZU DĂ CULOARE LA MARRIOTT\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nGaleriile de arta ale Grand Hotel J.W. Marriott din Bucuresti au fost onorate de lucrarile tinerei creatoare Buzu (Ana Ștefania Andronic). Tablourile lucrate în tehnica de iluminare UV, scot în evidenta detalii altfel greu de observat. Lucrarile fac parte din ciclul Another Language, prezentat în premiera, în urma cu un an la Bochum (Germania). Vizitatorii au savurat experimentele cromatice si vizuale ce au îmbinat limbajul vizual cu cel comun. ”Toti accesam perspective de exprimare relativ comune, dar ne exprimam diferit si aici suntem marcati de felul nostru de a gandi. Suntem curiosi pentru ca suntem vii, iar lumina care izvoreste din culori ne face originali în fata naturii.”\r\nBuzu a expus în multe galerii importante din tara si strainatate. Absolventa a Liceului de arta Nicolae Tonitza si a Universitatii de Arte din Bucuresti, sectia de Grafica (clasa prof. Mircia Dumitrescu) ea este Doctorand în arte vizuale, cu tema Benzi desenate.\r\n\r\nWiFi de top\r\n\r\nPortalul Kayak specializat în oferte turistice, a realizat un top la nivel global al tarilor care ofera internet WiFi gratuit în hoteluri. Potrivit acestuia, Romania ocupa primul loc cu o rata de 99%, similara cu cea din Vietnam. Cele doua tari sunt urmate de Taiwan - 98%, Cambodgia - 98%, Polonia - 98%, Maroc - 98%, Slovacia - 98% si Japonia - 97%, Columbia - 97% si Muntenegru - 97%.

Astfel ei vor deveni repere valoroase pentru copiii nostri. Avem nevoie de o schimbare si primii care trebuie sa beneficieze de ea, sunt copiii.

După cum se ştie spaţiul turistic a fost dezvoltat pe teritoriul unei foste fabrici de armament care în perioada celui de-al Doilea Război Mondial, ajunsese, din punct de vedere al cantităţii, al doilea mare producător de muniţie din Europa. Dupa Revoluţie, fabrica a intrat în declin. Societatea a fost cumpărată în 2003 de firma timişoreană Timco, membră a Bega Grup.\r\n\r\n[gallery ids=\"3315,3316,3317,3318,3319,3320\"]\r\n\r\nÎn urma unor investiţii inspirate buncărele şi depozitele de muniţie abandonate ale fostei fabrici Rompiro au fost transformate spaţii turistice cu o capacitate totală de 200 de locuri, cu paturi repartizate pe afeturi de tun sau în TAB-uri, în camere simple sau apartamente în vile. Aleile complexului turistic sunt străjuite de 70 de tunuri, TAB-uri, dispozitive antirachetă, tunuri antiaeriene, lansatoare de rachete, camioane militare, o locomotivă, un avion IAR 93, un elicopter Kamov Ka 26. Toate acestea alcătuiesc “cel mai mare muzeu de tehnica militară din România deschis publicului\" - afirmă proprietarii.\r\n\r\nÎn acest an ei au anunţat o nouă o investiţie de circa 6 milioane de euro.Conform proiectului de construcţie aici va apărea un Centru de agrement în cadrul complexului de la Orăştie. Acesta beneficiază de susţinere financiară europeană, fiind cofinanţat prin REGIO – POR într-o proporţie de peste 55%, contribuţia beneficiarului fiind de circa 40%. Lucrările de construcţie, începute la jumătatea anului, se vor încheia în ultimul trimestru din 2015.

După cum se ştie spaţiul turistic a fost dezvoltat pe teritoriul unei foste fabrici de armament care în perioada celui de-al Doilea Război Mondial, ajunsese, din punct de vedere al cantităţii, al doilea mare producător de muniţie din Europa. Dupa Revoluţie, fabrica a intrat în declin. Societatea a fost cumpărată în 2003 de firma timişoreană Timco, membră a Bega Grup.\r\n\r\n[gallery ids=\"3315,3316,3317,3318,3319,3320\"]\r\n\r\nÎn urma unor investiţii inspirate buncărele şi depozitele de muniţie abandonate ale fostei fabrici Rompiro au fost transformate spaţii turistice cu o capacitate totală de 200 de locuri, cu paturi repartizate pe afeturi de tun sau în TAB-uri, în camere simple sau apartamente în vile. Aleile complexului turistic sunt străjuite de 70 de tunuri, TAB-uri, dispozitive antirachetă, tunuri antiaeriene, lansatoare de rachete, camioane militare, o locomotivă, un avion IAR 93, un elicopter Kamov Ka 26. Toate acestea alcătuiesc “cel mai mare muzeu de tehnica militară din România deschis publicului\" - afirmă proprietarii.\r\n\r\nÎn acest an ei au anunţat o nouă o investiţie de circa 6 milioane de euro.Conform proiectului de construcţie aici va apărea un Centru de agrement în cadrul complexului de la Orăştie. Acesta beneficiază de susţinere financiară europeană, fiind cofinanţat prin REGIO – POR într-o proporţie de peste 55%, contribuţia beneficiarului fiind de circa 40%. Lucrările de construcţie, începute la jumătatea anului, se vor încheia în ultimul trimestru din 2015.

This is what Prestige Hotel Budapest, a new hotel development project in district V, will look like. The owner Mazen Al Ramahi introduces their latest acquisition.\r\n\r\n“I found a pure gemstone in the city centre, when I discovered this small building in VigyázóFerencStreet. I knew at a glance that we were going to start a lovely, interesting, and successful hotel project if we dreamt this classic, typical Budapest-style tenement were the youngest member of our hotel chain”Mazen Al Ramahi, the owner of Boutique Hotel Budapest in Só Street and Continental Hotel Budapest in DohányStreet said.\r\n\r\nPrevious success stories, the same team.\r\n![\"Prestige](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/Prestige-Budapest-1.jpg\")
\r\nMr.Ramahi knows no compromise to quality. He keeps an eye on all and in minute detail, including planning, construction, and operation at later stages of his hotels.In response to international trends, he opened Boutique Hotel in 2006 to give a boost to local urban “lifestyle” hotel development. Ever since its opening in 2010 Continental Hotel has been a winner of a number of awards recognizing its excellence in architecture and hotel industry as well as superiority in occupation rates compared to other urban hotels of the same standard in Budapest.\r\n![\"Prestige](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/Prestige-budapest-3.jpg\")
\r\n“The new hotel is named Prestige Hotel Budapest and was planned and has been constructed by the same team we have already had two other successful projects: PéterHegedűs, architect, VirágVörösandCsillaSáfrányinterior designersproduce a great combination of traditional values already existing in a classic building and modernity giving birth to spaces and means meeting the demands of our age.”\r\n![\"Prestige](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/Prestige-Budapest-4.jpg\")
\r\n\r\nThe best of all, spiced with some gastronomical experience “Before the opening scheduled to next spring not only builders and interior designers have been busy, but many other teams have also set to work, especially with focus on sales and marketing.” the owner said.\r\n\r\nThere will be 85 rooms, a restaurant, and a wellness department available from next spring. As the classic hallways in the rotunda are preserved up to the sixth floor, guestscan walk in the hallways around the atrium and wonder at the imposinginternal space, the glass roof letting natural light flood in from above, and the exclusive Cavalli furniture in the lobby.\r\n![\"Prestige](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/Prestige-budapest-6.jpg\")
\r\n“We have two hotels already operating and providing great gastronomical experience to guest. Restaurant ARAZ in Continental offers true culinary pleasures. We aim to achieve high quality in Prestige too. Now we can promise the restaurant in Prestige Hotel Budapest will be another specialty not only of our services but also in the gastronomy of Budapest.”\r\n\r\nShine and a small piece of history in the heart of Pest\r\n“By preserving the luxury and upper-class elegance of the 1900s in the character, Prestige Hotel Budapest will attract even for tourists coming from far countries. You can taste the atmosphere of the Monarchy,enjoy the shine and luxury of the peaceful early 1900s,as both the staff’s clothesas well as various hotelwares will reflect the style that marked that era.\r\n\r\nI am convinced that the hotel will be popular among tourists visiting the country as well as business travellers. This is a genuine »city hotel« in the heart of Budapest’s business life, within a walking distance from Bank Center, MadáchCenter, several central government offices, and the number one building of the country, the Parliament.”\r\n\r\nwww.prestigehotelbudapest.com\r\nContact: Kitti Varga\r\nPre-opening Marketing Manager\r\n+36 30/6639603\r\nkitti.varga@zeinahotels.com\r\n\r\n![\"Prestige](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/Prestige-budapest-5.jpg\")

Dedicata vieţii şi personalitaţii reginei Maria a României, cu prilejul implinirii a 75 de ani de la moarte ea a creat inca un prilej de a plonja in istorie dar si in timpurile moderne, intr-un spatiu care merita vizitat in toate anotimpurile.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"3324,3325,3327,3326,3328,3329,3330,3331\"]\r\n\r\nUn Barbizon de... argint\r\n\r\nNu vom intra prea mult in istorie. Turistul modern are la indemâna instrumente electronice de documentare. Va sugeram doar câteva locuri pentru o vizita de cel putin o jumatate de zi. Mai intâi trebuie sa stiti ca micul oras de pe Coasta e Argint a fost o Mecca pentru pictori atrasi de acest loc considerat echivalentul balcanic al Școlii de la Barbizon. Patrascu, Tonitza, Ghiata, Steriade, Pallady, Ressu, Muntzer, Darascu, Nicolae Grigorescu, Theodorescu-Sion au fixat repere de culoare si talent. Afla ca intre 1913 si 1940 Balcic a fost teritoriu românesc. Azi este bulgaresc ca si castelul Reginei Maria, care a facut, dupa al II-lea Razboi mondial subiectul unei tranzactii intre cele doua state. Azi pentru aceste lucruri putem folosi un termen comun - Balcicul este un spatiu european, cu o istorie româno-bulgara, demna de inteles si de frecventat.\r\n\r\nInscriptie pe o placa de marmura\r\n\r\nCe poate afla calatorul modern in scurta sa vizita? Castelul Reginei Maria, bine intretinut ca de altfel intreg domeniul, a fost terminat in 1936. ”Cuibul linistit” (“Quiet Nest” sau “Tenha Juvah” in limba turca), a fost numit asa pentru atmosfera pe care o emana inca de la inceput. El poarta semnatura arhitectilor Augustino si Amerigo din Italia iar amprenta asupra amenajarii gradinilor ii apartine decoratorului elvetian Jules Jany. Nu ratati faimoasa Stella Maris, capela construita cu materiale aduse din Grecia, singurul loc unde se afla o inscriptie pe marmura, in limba româna, ce consemneaza faptul ca domeniul si castelul au fost construite de Regina Maria; Ghereta Santinelei, ce marcheaza intrarea la castel; Fântâna de argint, unde nu ezitati sa aruncati un banut, legenda spune ca dorinta pusa vi se va implini; Gradina lui Allah ce face legatura intre Fântâna de argint si Vila Sageata albastra. Daca aveti noroc sa prindeti cactusii infloriti, asa cum am avut noi, trebuie sa stiti ca o mare parte din ei au fost plantati in urma cu vreo 80 de ani. Merita sa va opriti o clipa la Templul apei, constructie cu arcade pictate, cu bazine interioare sustinute de coloane de dimensiuni foarte mari; la Gradina Ghetsemani, ce adaposteste o colectie de arbori pitici, ori la Cascada spectaculoasa, asupra careia se opresc toate privirile. Pentru pauza de prânz nu ocoliti restaurantul ”Coroana”, unde se odihnea din când in când Regina sau, pur si simplu,daca timpul nu va ajunge, sa va trageti sufletul lânga Tronul Reginei Maria, un fotoliu monumental din marmura, invecinat cu o masuta de piatra. E un loc de legenda, multe dintre fotografiile Reginei fiind realizate acolo. Pe drumul ce le leaga aveti ocazia sa va procurati suveniruri - de la cani, pliante, carti si in limba româna etc -, cu chipul si povestile legate de viata Reginei Maria.\r\n\r\nAi grija sa nu te intepi\r\nDaca sunteti indragostiti de gradini, flori, amenajari ambientale, nu aveti cum sa ratati Gradina Botanica. Ea a fost amenajata ulterior pe spatiul unei parti a vechiului parc. Din ratiuni didactice dar si economice. De aproape sase decenii ea este administrata si patronata de catre Universitatea din Sofia ce desfasoara aici si activitati de cercetare. Pe cele 35 de hectare se afla plantate peste 3.000 de specii, unele dintre ele foarte rare. O colectie constituita din aproximativ 250 de cactusi este apreciata azi drept una dintre cele mai importante de acest fel din Europa.\r\n\r\nLa ce a visat Anna ?\r\nDar asta nu e tot. Iubitorii de vin au un drum dedicat pasiunii lor. Aleea Vinului conduce spre vechea Crama regala devenita azi loc pentru evenimente memorabile si intâlniri magice. Anna Koleva, administratorul Queen\'s Winery House, este o fiinta subtire dar energica. Are o voce plina de emotie, foloseste o limba româna calda, frumoasa. De unde a invatat-o? De la turistii români pe care-i pretuieste nespus. Putea sa fie un excelent economist dar a ales vinul. Sau vinul a ales-o pe ea! Produsele sale precum Regina (un vin aromatizat cu miere ce are la baza Carbernet Sauvignon), Elleanna (aromatizat cu miere de albine pe baza de Merlot), Duchessa (aromatizat cu miere si migdale), Rose Vine (vin cu extract de trandafiri pe baza de Mavrud, aromatizat cu miere), ori Vinul fara nume (creat in editii limitate, la comanda), fac deliciul degustarilor la care turistii descopera cupaje inedite, provocatoare. La fel sunt si rachiurile. Cel mai cotat este Aaronn (cu vechime cuprinsa intre 18 si 30 de ani), distilat de vin imbatrânit in butoaie de stejar. Spectacolul nu se opreste aici.\r\n\r\nPentru ca in fiecare an se fac noi experiente din care, ies sau nu, bauturi cu arome de migdale, pepene, miere de albine, scortisoara, dovleac etc. ”Cel mai mare vis al meu a fost sa fac un vin special pentru aceasta ”casa” a Reginei Maria. Un vin care sa exprime spiritul unei epoci apuse, dar care sa sfideze timpul si sa faca oamenii sa viseze. Am lucrat multi ani, intre teama si emotia de a fi inteles sau nu, dansul gusturilor, aromele si cucubeul de culori ce invaluie acest mic castel.\r\n\r\nCele mai bune idei, cele mai delicate arome au fost asociate cu gustul singuratatii si admiratia oamenilor dragi. Cei mai buni oenologi m-au ajutat in aceasta aventura. Cu vinurile mele am incercat sa fiu aproape de oamenii care au plecat luând cu ei si o parte din inima mea. Vinurile create sunt ”scrisorile” mele pentru voi. Inima mea este intotdeauna acolo, in vin. Va propun sa deschideti ”scrisorile” mele, impreuna cu prietenii, rudele si cu cei dragi” - spune Anna Koleva. Inima Reginei Maria nu se mai afla acum la Balcic, dar inima vinului din Crama Reginei, creat de Anna, bate in fiecare zi pentru turism. Faceti-i o vizita. Aveti numai de câstigat!\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nO POVESTE ȘI DOI... CĂPITANI\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"3332,3333,3334,3335,3336,3337,3338,3339\"]\r\n\r\nDaca navighezi pe Dunare, dupa trecerile succesive prin ecluzele Portilor de Fier I si II, e imposibil sa nu observi privind spre malul sârbesc o constructie spectaculoasa ca o spinare de balena alba, care ”sparge” peisajul. Este atât de avangardista incât domina verdele calm al padurii si curgerea lina a Dunarii. Sârbii o numesc ”marea noastra”.\r\n\r\nTuristii admira peisajul iar localnicii, de pe ambele maluri, privesc cu nostalgie cum trec celebre nave straine de croaziera pe lânga ei... La acest spectacol privea de pe malul sârbesc un capitan de port care se intreba cum sa faca pentru ca o parte dintre nave sa opreasca si in portul Donji Milanovac. S-a gândit la o strategie de marketing? Cam pretentios spus. Și totusi... Împreuna cu autoritatile locale cele portuare s-au mobilizat si am creat o infrastructura navala care sa permita comunitatii lor sa primeasca turistii straini carora sa le ofere experiente de neuitat. Asa a aparut un port cochet. În urma cu trei ani trageau aici doar 5 nave de croaziera.\r\n\r\nAzi se inregistreaza aici circa 100 de escale. Mica asezare detine un modern Centru de informare turistica dotat cu materiale de promovare a Serbiei, in engleza, franceza, germana etc. Are un personal amabil, conexiuni de internet excelente, colectii de ghiduri, suveniruri, obiecte promotionale specifice zonei. Piateta comerciala, amenajata chiar in gura portului, are un orar interesant. Se deschide când vine vasul si se inchide dupa plecarea lui. Standurile moderne, au fost construite dupa un concept unitar, de catre primarie. Aici artizanii locali, majoritatea femei, ofera numai produse de cu specific sârbesc. Nicaieri nu intâlnesti atmosfera de bâlci. Cu atât mai putin in restaurantele ce o incadreaza unde sunt oferite meniuri traditionale. O mare parte din locuitori vorbesc limba româna, cu expresii arhaice, pe care unii dintre noi le mai utilizam inca. În micul parc te intâmpina statuia unui mamut, trimitere la faptul ca in trecut pe aici traiau asemenea giganti.\r\n\r\nMarile surprizele te asteapta dupa ce autocarul turistic te duce pe deal, la Cheile Djerdap, deasupra Dunarii. Ce descoperi? Lepenski Vir, un sit arheologic organizat intr-un muzeu fabulos. Sapaturile arheologice accelerate de lucrarile la hidrocentrala, au scos la iveala o asezare veche de peste 9000 de ani. 136 de case, statuete, sculpturi in piatra, reprezentari de zei, bijuterii facute din pietre si oase. Asezarea dateaza din perioada neolitica. Satul a fost salvat de la inundare fiind relocat pe aceasta colina, unde s-a amenajat Complexul muzeal ultramodern. Este chiar ”spinarea balenei albe” pe care o vedeti atunci când treceti pe Dunare. În interior puteti admira fragmente de case, vase si, mai ales puteti cugeta in fata ”omului schelet” ce doarme ghemuit cu capul spre caldura focului ce ardea in urma cu 8000 de ani. Sunt expuse statui ale zeului Danubius, ale fiicei sale Ondine, dar si cea a lui... Adam.\r\n\r\nFrumusetea exponatelor este egalata doar de legendele care vorbesc despre Muntele Sfânt, al celor de la Lepenski Vir. Ei aici, ne-am scos, pentru ca acest munte de afla pe malul românesc al Dunarii.\r\n\r\nDupa infuzia de istorie simti nevoia de relaxare. La Complexul turistic Kapetan Misin Breg un covor de iarba grasa te invita sa-ti afunzi picioarele si sa admiri panorama uluitoare asupra Dunarii. Gazdele, modeste si amabile te trateaza cu produse preparate in gospodarie. Complexul eco-turistic ofera case de lemn amenajate ca pensiuni, o capela rustica pentru oficierea de casatorii, o expozitie de arta in aer liber, un muzeu etnografic, dar si unul al vinului, care se imbogateste in fiecare an prin contributiile turistilor ce sosesc de pe intreg mapamondul. Fiecare sticla are povestea ei. Cum o mare parte dintre turisti vin din România (din Craiova, Galati, Constanta, Bucuresti etc), nu e de mirare ca exista o colectie reprezentativa din tara noastra. Am mai ascultat cu placere povestea Capitanului Misin, un intreprinzator bogat care-si supraveghea de aici, din deal, cele circa 200 de vase si slepuri comericale cu care a facut comert pe Dunare pâna la inceputul secolului XX.

Dedicata vieţii şi personalitaţii reginei Maria a României, cu prilejul implinirii a 75 de ani de la moarte ea a creat inca un prilej de a plonja in istorie dar si in timpurile moderne, intr-un spatiu care merita vizitat in toate anotimpurile.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"3324,3325,3327,3326,3328,3329,3330,3331\"]\r\n\r\nUn Barbizon de... argint\r\n\r\nNu vom intra prea mult in istorie. Turistul modern are la indemâna instrumente electronice de documentare. Va sugeram doar câteva locuri pentru o vizita de cel putin o jumatate de zi. Mai intâi trebuie sa stiti ca micul oras de pe Coasta e Argint a fost o Mecca pentru pictori atrasi de acest loc considerat echivalentul balcanic al Școlii de la Barbizon. Patrascu, Tonitza, Ghiata, Steriade, Pallady, Ressu, Muntzer, Darascu, Nicolae Grigorescu, Theodorescu-Sion au fixat repere de culoare si talent. Afla ca intre 1913 si 1940 Balcic a fost teritoriu românesc. Azi este bulgaresc ca si castelul Reginei Maria, care a facut, dupa al II-lea Razboi mondial subiectul unei tranzactii intre cele doua state. Azi pentru aceste lucruri putem folosi un termen comun - Balcicul este un spatiu european, cu o istorie româno-bulgara, demna de inteles si de frecventat.\r\n\r\nInscriptie pe o placa de marmura\r\n\r\nCe poate afla calatorul modern in scurta sa vizita? Castelul Reginei Maria, bine intretinut ca de altfel intreg domeniul, a fost terminat in 1936. ”Cuibul linistit” (“Quiet Nest” sau “Tenha Juvah” in limba turca), a fost numit asa pentru atmosfera pe care o emana inca de la inceput. El poarta semnatura arhitectilor Augustino si Amerigo din Italia iar amprenta asupra amenajarii gradinilor ii apartine decoratorului elvetian Jules Jany. Nu ratati faimoasa Stella Maris, capela construita cu materiale aduse din Grecia, singurul loc unde se afla o inscriptie pe marmura, in limba româna, ce consemneaza faptul ca domeniul si castelul au fost construite de Regina Maria; Ghereta Santinelei, ce marcheaza intrarea la castel; Fântâna de argint, unde nu ezitati sa aruncati un banut, legenda spune ca dorinta pusa vi se va implini; Gradina lui Allah ce face legatura intre Fântâna de argint si Vila Sageata albastra. Daca aveti noroc sa prindeti cactusii infloriti, asa cum am avut noi, trebuie sa stiti ca o mare parte din ei au fost plantati in urma cu vreo 80 de ani. Merita sa va opriti o clipa la Templul apei, constructie cu arcade pictate, cu bazine interioare sustinute de coloane de dimensiuni foarte mari; la Gradina Ghetsemani, ce adaposteste o colectie de arbori pitici, ori la Cascada spectaculoasa, asupra careia se opresc toate privirile. Pentru pauza de prânz nu ocoliti restaurantul ”Coroana”, unde se odihnea din când in când Regina sau, pur si simplu,daca timpul nu va ajunge, sa va trageti sufletul lânga Tronul Reginei Maria, un fotoliu monumental din marmura, invecinat cu o masuta de piatra. E un loc de legenda, multe dintre fotografiile Reginei fiind realizate acolo. Pe drumul ce le leaga aveti ocazia sa va procurati suveniruri - de la cani, pliante, carti si in limba româna etc -, cu chipul si povestile legate de viata Reginei Maria.\r\n\r\nAi grija sa nu te intepi\r\nDaca sunteti indragostiti de gradini, flori, amenajari ambientale, nu aveti cum sa ratati Gradina Botanica. Ea a fost amenajata ulterior pe spatiul unei parti a vechiului parc. Din ratiuni didactice dar si economice. De aproape sase decenii ea este administrata si patronata de catre Universitatea din Sofia ce desfasoara aici si activitati de cercetare. Pe cele 35 de hectare se afla plantate peste 3.000 de specii, unele dintre ele foarte rare. O colectie constituita din aproximativ 250 de cactusi este apreciata azi drept una dintre cele mai importante de acest fel din Europa.\r\n\r\nLa ce a visat Anna ?\r\nDar asta nu e tot. Iubitorii de vin au un drum dedicat pasiunii lor. Aleea Vinului conduce spre vechea Crama regala devenita azi loc pentru evenimente memorabile si intâlniri magice. Anna Koleva, administratorul Queen\'s Winery House, este o fiinta subtire dar energica. Are o voce plina de emotie, foloseste o limba româna calda, frumoasa. De unde a invatat-o? De la turistii români pe care-i pretuieste nespus. Putea sa fie un excelent economist dar a ales vinul. Sau vinul a ales-o pe ea! Produsele sale precum Regina (un vin aromatizat cu miere ce are la baza Carbernet Sauvignon), Elleanna (aromatizat cu miere de albine pe baza de Merlot), Duchessa (aromatizat cu miere si migdale), Rose Vine (vin cu extract de trandafiri pe baza de Mavrud, aromatizat cu miere), ori Vinul fara nume (creat in editii limitate, la comanda), fac deliciul degustarilor la care turistii descopera cupaje inedite, provocatoare. La fel sunt si rachiurile. Cel mai cotat este Aaronn (cu vechime cuprinsa intre 18 si 30 de ani), distilat de vin imbatrânit in butoaie de stejar. Spectacolul nu se opreste aici.\r\n\r\nPentru ca in fiecare an se fac noi experiente din care, ies sau nu, bauturi cu arome de migdale, pepene, miere de albine, scortisoara, dovleac etc. ”Cel mai mare vis al meu a fost sa fac un vin special pentru aceasta ”casa” a Reginei Maria. Un vin care sa exprime spiritul unei epoci apuse, dar care sa sfideze timpul si sa faca oamenii sa viseze. Am lucrat multi ani, intre teama si emotia de a fi inteles sau nu, dansul gusturilor, aromele si cucubeul de culori ce invaluie acest mic castel.\r\n\r\nCele mai bune idei, cele mai delicate arome au fost asociate cu gustul singuratatii si admiratia oamenilor dragi. Cei mai buni oenologi m-au ajutat in aceasta aventura. Cu vinurile mele am incercat sa fiu aproape de oamenii care au plecat luând cu ei si o parte din inima mea. Vinurile create sunt ”scrisorile” mele pentru voi. Inima mea este intotdeauna acolo, in vin. Va propun sa deschideti ”scrisorile” mele, impreuna cu prietenii, rudele si cu cei dragi” - spune Anna Koleva. Inima Reginei Maria nu se mai afla acum la Balcic, dar inima vinului din Crama Reginei, creat de Anna, bate in fiecare zi pentru turism. Faceti-i o vizita. Aveti numai de câstigat!\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nO POVESTE ȘI DOI... CĂPITANI\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"3332,3333,3334,3335,3336,3337,3338,3339\"]\r\n\r\nDaca navighezi pe Dunare, dupa trecerile succesive prin ecluzele Portilor de Fier I si II, e imposibil sa nu observi privind spre malul sârbesc o constructie spectaculoasa ca o spinare de balena alba, care ”sparge” peisajul. Este atât de avangardista incât domina verdele calm al padurii si curgerea lina a Dunarii. Sârbii o numesc ”marea noastra”.\r\n\r\nTuristii admira peisajul iar localnicii, de pe ambele maluri, privesc cu nostalgie cum trec celebre nave straine de croaziera pe lânga ei... La acest spectacol privea de pe malul sârbesc un capitan de port care se intreba cum sa faca pentru ca o parte dintre nave sa opreasca si in portul Donji Milanovac. S-a gândit la o strategie de marketing? Cam pretentios spus. Și totusi... Împreuna cu autoritatile locale cele portuare s-au mobilizat si am creat o infrastructura navala care sa permita comunitatii lor sa primeasca turistii straini carora sa le ofere experiente de neuitat. Asa a aparut un port cochet. În urma cu trei ani trageau aici doar 5 nave de croaziera.\r\n\r\nAzi se inregistreaza aici circa 100 de escale. Mica asezare detine un modern Centru de informare turistica dotat cu materiale de promovare a Serbiei, in engleza, franceza, germana etc. Are un personal amabil, conexiuni de internet excelente, colectii de ghiduri, suveniruri, obiecte promotionale specifice zonei. Piateta comerciala, amenajata chiar in gura portului, are un orar interesant. Se deschide când vine vasul si se inchide dupa plecarea lui. Standurile moderne, au fost construite dupa un concept unitar, de catre primarie. Aici artizanii locali, majoritatea femei, ofera numai produse de cu specific sârbesc. Nicaieri nu intâlnesti atmosfera de bâlci. Cu atât mai putin in restaurantele ce o incadreaza unde sunt oferite meniuri traditionale. O mare parte din locuitori vorbesc limba româna, cu expresii arhaice, pe care unii dintre noi le mai utilizam inca. În micul parc te intâmpina statuia unui mamut, trimitere la faptul ca in trecut pe aici traiau asemenea giganti.\r\n\r\nMarile surprizele te asteapta dupa ce autocarul turistic te duce pe deal, la Cheile Djerdap, deasupra Dunarii. Ce descoperi? Lepenski Vir, un sit arheologic organizat intr-un muzeu fabulos. Sapaturile arheologice accelerate de lucrarile la hidrocentrala, au scos la iveala o asezare veche de peste 9000 de ani. 136 de case, statuete, sculpturi in piatra, reprezentari de zei, bijuterii facute din pietre si oase. Asezarea dateaza din perioada neolitica. Satul a fost salvat de la inundare fiind relocat pe aceasta colina, unde s-a amenajat Complexul muzeal ultramodern. Este chiar ”spinarea balenei albe” pe care o vedeti atunci când treceti pe Dunare. În interior puteti admira fragmente de case, vase si, mai ales puteti cugeta in fata ”omului schelet” ce doarme ghemuit cu capul spre caldura focului ce ardea in urma cu 8000 de ani. Sunt expuse statui ale zeului Danubius, ale fiicei sale Ondine, dar si cea a lui... Adam.\r\n\r\nFrumusetea exponatelor este egalata doar de legendele care vorbesc despre Muntele Sfânt, al celor de la Lepenski Vir. Ei aici, ne-am scos, pentru ca acest munte de afla pe malul românesc al Dunarii.\r\n\r\nDupa infuzia de istorie simti nevoia de relaxare. La Complexul turistic Kapetan Misin Breg un covor de iarba grasa te invita sa-ti afunzi picioarele si sa admiri panorama uluitoare asupra Dunarii. Gazdele, modeste si amabile te trateaza cu produse preparate in gospodarie. Complexul eco-turistic ofera case de lemn amenajate ca pensiuni, o capela rustica pentru oficierea de casatorii, o expozitie de arta in aer liber, un muzeu etnografic, dar si unul al vinului, care se imbogateste in fiecare an prin contributiile turistilor ce sosesc de pe intreg mapamondul. Fiecare sticla are povestea ei. Cum o mare parte dintre turisti vin din România (din Craiova, Galati, Constanta, Bucuresti etc), nu e de mirare ca exista o colectie reprezentativa din tara noastra. Am mai ascultat cu placere povestea Capitanului Misin, un intreprinzator bogat care-si supraveghea de aici, din deal, cele circa 200 de vase si slepuri comericale cu care a facut comert pe Dunare pâna la inceputul secolului XX. Complexul turistic - ne spune actualul administrator Zivorad Stefanovic -, include o mare parte din fostele sale proprietati.\r\n\r\nIncursiunea noastra a avut sprijinul neconditionat al lui Srecko Nikolic. Chiar capitanul portului Donji Milanovac. Care a visat (dar e tare de tot si la marketing comercial) ca asezarea sa câstige cât mai mult din turism.

Sentimentul acesta l-am încercat la Ostrov, unde o societate privată și-a propus să rescrie istoria locului împletind investițiile în plantații noi de viță de vie și livez,i cu cele din turism.
\r\nDomeniile Ostrov, înființate în 1958, sunt situate în sud-vestul judeţului Constanţa, de-a lungul malului drept al Dunării, pe terasa superioară. Ele au o lungime de 30 de kilometri. Expunerea dealurilor şi luciul Dunării conferă culturii viţei-de-vie condiţii foarte bune pentru ca strugurii să ajungă la maturitate deplină şi să îndeplinească toate caracteristicile organoleptice şi fizico-chimice, necesare obţinerii unor vinuri de înaltă calitate. Actualii proprietari au reuşit să aducă plantaţia viticolă şi tehnologia de vinificare la standarde superioare. Vinurile obţinute în această podgorie au nobleţe, originalitate și o personalitate puternică. Calitatea este garantată de Uniunea Europeană, prin certificarea ce atestă denumirea de origine controlată şi indicaţia geografică (D.O.C.-C.M.D. Oltina). În prezent, Domeniile Ostrov deţine o suprafaţă agricolă de aproximativ 2000 de hectare, cu un areal viticol de 1200 de hectare, 400 de hectare livadă (cais, piersic, măr, prun, cireş, vişin, nuc), 150 de hectare de teren arabil ce urmează a fi plantate şi 200 hectare de sere. Domeniile Ostrov include două mari centre: Ostrov şi Lipniţa.\r\n\r\nAsta-i partea văzută a lucrurilor. Oana Belu, directorul general al Domeniilor Ostrov, a lansat o invitație mediei de specialitate de a participa la câteva evenimente care încept să vorbească despre viitorul societății comerciale. ”În luna august, în cadrul Festivalului ”Vinul Nou” -, am marcat lansarea noii game de vinuri premiul din seria Naiada, ce au în compoziție trei soiuri de vie românești - Crâmpoșie (selecționat 1972, Drăgășani), Fetască Albă și Fetească Neagră și două soiuri internaționale Chardonnay respectiv Syrah. Vinul va fi produs în ediție limitată de 10.000 de sticle per sortiment. Numele său este inspirat din legendele locului așa cum precizează în scrierile sale reputatul Răzvan Ciucă”. Profesorul ne face o descriere chiar de la ”catedra butoaielor” - ”Naiada are un registru roșu profund, este un vin de octombrie, corpolent și cu buchet de pădure. După eticheta de acum nu veți reuși să fiți ochi în ochi cu Naiada. Se lasă greu dezvelită. Puțină răbdare și, în curând, va urma chipul ei real de pe marca de tezaur a Domeniilor Ostrov. Ireală, de neatins, nimfă a izvoarelor, lacurilor și apelor curgătoare, purtătoare a tinereții veșnice, Naiada te apropie de dragoste și frumusețe”. Dar acesta nu e singurul artist de la Ostrov. Nelu Juan Pușchilă, este un munte de bucătar. El ne-a dovedit că se descurcă excelent când gătește borș de pește proaspăt pescuit dar și un miel la proțap, servite alături de pâine aburindă pe vatră. În contul pasiunilor sale gastronomice trecem și plăcintele dublu combinate cu mere și brânză. E semn că tradiția în Dobrogea nu are de gând să moară. Ca și arta. Sculptorul Alexandre Paraschiv a stat 20 de ani în Franța și spune, ”m-am întors acasă, la origini. Mulți mi-au spus că sunt nebun. Eu am simțit chemarea pământului. Prin sculpturile și picturile mele - de la capul de dac până statuile și figurinele de femei -, doresc să reinterpretez un timp trecut prin expresii moderne. Este atât de mustoasă istoria Dobrogei, încât am simțit că aici se poate lucra ceva de mare valoare, ce poate fi lăsat moștenire”. Dacă treceți pe aici aflați că sigla Domeniilor Ostrov ca și galeriile de tablouri de pe pereții cramelor, restaurantului ori a hotelului Dionis, poartă semnătura lui Alexandre.\r\n\r\nCe s-a schimbat pe piața vinului din România? Care este proiecția pentru viitorii ani a Domeniilor Ostrov? ”Piața vinului este în continuă creștere. Se simte nevoia de calitate. Se va simți și mai pregnant în 2014. Va fi mai puțin vin, dar de calitate. Ne concentrăm pe investiții, în majoritatea lor susținute de fonduri europene. Competiția este foarte mare și important este, ca în aceste condiții, să reușești să produci un vin bun, calitativ, la prețuri accesibile tuturor. În cursul ultimilor doi ani am investit peste 3 milioane de euro pentru reabilitarea întregii rețele de irigații pe întreaga suprafață de 2000 de hectare. Modernizarea tehnologiei de vinificație este o altă tendință constantă. Ați văzut stațiile de vinificare pentru vin alb și roșu, sistemele de control al temperaturii, pentru care am alocat peste 800.000 de euro. În ultimii ani ne-am implicat în industria turistică ce se armonizează perfect cu cea a vinului. Drept urmare în arealul Domeniilor Ostrov, vor apărea complexe de cazare - o parte le-am testat împreună (Pensiunile Naiada și Beciul Domnesc, Hotelul Dionis), restaurantul Durostorum cu 250 de locuri.

\nDomeniile Ostrov, înființate în 1958, sunt situate în sud-vestul judeţului Constanţa, de-a lungul malului drept al Dunării, pe terasa superioară. Ele au o lungime de 30 de kilometri. Expunerea dealurilor şi luciul Dunării conferă culturii viţei-de-vie condiţii foarte bune pentru ca strugurii să ajungă la maturitate deplină şi să îndeplinească toate caracteristicile organoleptice şi fizico-chimice, necesare obţinerii unor vinuri de înaltă calitate. Actualii proprietari au reuşit să aducă plantaţia viticolă şi tehnologia de vinificare la standarde superioare. Vinurile obţinute în această podgorie au nobleţe, originalitate și o personalitate puternică. Calitatea este garantată de Uniunea Europeană, prin certificarea ce atestă denumirea de origine controlată şi indicaţia geografică (D.O.C.-C.M.D. Oltina). În prezent, Domeniile Ostrov deţine o suprafaţă agricolă de aproximativ 2000 de hectare, cu un areal viticol de 1200 de hectare, 400 de hectare livadă (cais, piersic, măr, prun, cireş, vişin, nuc), 150 de hectare de teren arabil ce urmează a fi plantate şi 200 hectare de sere. Domeniile Ostrov include două mari centre: Ostrov şi Lipniţa. \n\n Asta-i partea văzută a lucrurilor. Oana Belu, directorul general al Domeniilor Ostrov, a lansat o invitație mediei de specialitate de a participa la câteva evenimente care încept să vorbească despre viitorul societății comerciale. ”În luna august, în cadrul Festivalului ”Vinul Nou” -, am marcat lansarea noii game de vinuri premiul din seria Naiada, ce au în compoziție trei soiuri de vie românești - Crâmpoșie (selecționat 1972, Drăgășani), Fetască Albă și Fetească Neagră și două soiuri internaționale Chardonnay respectiv Syrah. Vinul va fi produs în ediție limitată de 10.000 de sticle per sortiment. Numele său este inspirat din legendele locului așa cum precizează în scrierile sale reputatul Răzvan Ciucă”. Profesorul ne face o descriere chiar de la ”catedra butoaielor” - ”Naiada are un registru roșu profund, este un vin de octombrie, corpolent și cu buchet de pădure. După eticheta de acum nu veți reuși să fiți ochi în ochi cu Naiada. Se lasă greu dezvelită. Puțină răbdare și, în curând, va urma chipul ei real de pe marca de tezaur a Domeniilor Ostrov. Ireală, de neatins, nimfă a izvoarelor, lacurilor și apelor curgătoare, purtătoare a tinereții veșnice, Naiada te apropie de dragoste și frumusețe”. Dar acesta nu e singurul artist de la Ostrov. Nelu Juan Pușchilă, este un munte de bucătar. El ne-a dovedit că se descurcă excelent când gătește borș de pește proaspăt pescuit dar și un miel la proțap, servite alături de pâine aburindă pe vatră. În contul pasiunilor sale gastronomice trecem și plăcintele dublu combinate cu mere și brânză. E semn că tradiția în Dobrogea nu are de gând să moară. Ca și arta. Sculptorul Alexandre Paraschiv a stat 20 de ani în Franța și spune, ”m-am întors acasă, la origini. Mulți mi-au spus că sunt nebun. Eu am simțit chemarea pământului. Prin sculpturile și picturile mele - de la capul de dac până statuile și figurinele de femei -, doresc să reinterpretez un timp trecut prin expresii moderne. Este atât de mustoasă istoria Dobrogei, încât am simțit că aici se poate lucra ceva de mare valoare, ce poate fi lăsat moștenire”. Dacă treceți pe aici aflați că sigla Domeniilor Ostrov ca și galeriile de tablouri de pe pereții cramelor, restaurantului ori a hotelului Dionis, poartă semnătura lui Alexandre. \n\nCe s-a schimbat pe piața vinului din România? Care este proiecția pentru viitorii ani a Domeniilor Ostrov? ”Piața vinului este în continuă creștere. Se simte nevoia de calitate. Se va simți și mai pregnant în 2014. Va fi mai puțin vin, dar de calitate. Ne concentrăm pe investiții, în majoritatea lor susținute de fonduri europene. Competiția este foarte mare și important este, ca în aceste condiții, să reușești să produci un vin bun, calitativ, la prețuri accesibile tuturor. În cursul ultimilor doi ani am investit peste 3 milioane de euro pentru reabilitarea întregii rețele de irigații pe întreaga suprafață de 2000 de hectare. Modernizarea tehnologiei de vinificație este o altă tendință constantă. Ați văzut stațiile de vinificare pentru vin alb și roșu, sistemele de control al temperaturii, pentru care am alocat peste 800.000 de euro. În ultimii ani ne-am implicat în industria turistică ce se armonizează perfect cu cea a vinului. Drept urmare în arealul Domeniilor Ostrov, vor apărea complexe de cazare - o parte le-am testat împreună (Pensiunile Naiada și Beciul Domnesc, Hotelul Dionis), restaurantul Durostorum cu 250 de locuri. Vom avea și un complex de agrement ecvestru Heron, dar și un Centru de oenologie transfrontalier România-Bulgaria. Capacitatea la care vom ajunge - 54 de camere și apartamente -, ne va permite să găzduim aici numeroase evenimente ce vor pune în valoare vinurile producătorului” - subliniază directorul Belu. Și o recomandare Oana Bellu: \"Personal prefer vinul roșu, sec, vindecă stresul, încercați!\".\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU

A apărut la Paideia. Doina Berchina porneşte în „Povestea iei” de la ceramica de Cucuteni, aminteşte de pasiunea Reginei Maria pentru costumul popular românesc dar selectează, pe lângă fotografii de epocă, şi tablouri ori schiţe ale artiştilor care au reprezentat femei purtând această piesă vestimentară (Amedeo Preziosi, Nicolae Grigorescu, Henry Matisse). Revenită la modă, ia românească a inspirat creatorii contemporani (Oscar de la Renta, Kenzo, Yves Saint Laurent) şi, într-un final, ar putea deveni un simbol, de ce nu o altă formă de promovare a ţării. Amintind că anul trecut data de 24 iunie a fost declarată „Ziua Internaţională a iei” Doina Berchină ajunge la concluzia că: „Ia este până la urmă, o necesară şi din când în când stimulatoare căutare a rădăcinilor pe drumul definirii propriei identităţi, dar şi o modă cu o apăsată componentă etno apreciată mai ales de străini. Dar şi o frondă...”\r\n\r\n\r\nAlba Iulia a crescut şi vrea turişti!\r\n\r\nLucrarea a fost pregătită de către inginerul Alexandru Borza pentru anul 1976, în cadrul unui proiect finanţat atunci de Institutul de Cercetări pentru Turism. Republicarea ei s-a făcut anul acesta. Pe bună dreptate v-aţi putea întreba ce importanţă mai are acum un studiu atât de vechi despre potenţialul turistic din Alba!? Merită să parcurgeţi cartea, chiar şi numai cu titlu comparativ. „Valorificarea turistică a patrimoniului material şi imaterial al Judeţului Alba” descrie riguros regiunea, traseele dar şi obiectivele turistice. Inginerul Borza a călătorit şi a studiat zona cu ochiul unui cunoscător iar ideile sale de investiţii şi calculele propuse pot echivala cu un „master plan” modern. Informaţiile sunt actualizate de profesorul Nicolae Lupu. După 40 de ani Colecţia permanentă de etnografie visată de Borza completează acum Muzeul Unirii, Sala Mare a Peşterii Gheţarul de la Scărişoara este iluminată cu leduri, iar Alba Iulia trăieşte o nouă viaţă: are o superbă cetate Vauban unică în România. În aceeaşi zi, în acelaşi spaţiu, te plimbi printre bastioane şi porţi imperiale, figuri ale celor ce au gândit şi trăit Unirea Transilvaniei cu România. „Valorificarea turistică a patrimoniului material şi imaterial al Judeţului Alba”, editată de Altip - Alba Iulia, este încă un argument pentru a vă programa o vacanţă aici.\r\n\r\nInvitaţie pentru suflet\r\n„Made in Romania” este un nou album ale cărui fotografii poartă amprenta lui Florin Andreescu. Artistul, împreună cu Mariana Pascaru, editoarea textului, aduc în faţa turistului străin, necunoscător de România, 10 motive pentru a-şi alege ţara ca următoare destinaţie. Natura, oamenii dar şi interesantele perioade politice traversate de ţară apar menţionate deopotrivă. Albumul este un format mic, accesibil, iar fotografiile transmit, aşa cum ne-a obişnuit în timp autorul, despre un spirit bun, ingenu, idilic pur al locurilor. Piscurile munţilor înroşite de soarele de apus, răsăritul alburiu peste copacii în floare ai Maramureşului, drumuri de ţară cu flori de câmp adunate pe margini, brazde tăiate geometric şi şiruri la fel de frumos ordonate de pari pentru viţa de vie stau alături de păsările Deltei şi de tinerii, perechi moderne, pe străzile Bucureştiului.

Ofertele turistice, prezentate de companii românești și străine, au captat între 12 și 15 martie, atenția celor aproape 22.000 de vizitatori. Peste 260 de expozanți - instituții administrative, agenții de turism, tour-operatori, organizații și asociații de turism naționale (Sibiu, Alba Iulia, Iași, Cluj (Capitala culturală a tineretului în 2015), Sighișoara, București (cu cea mai nouă asociație de promovare turistică dar și cu un nou vizual), Mamaia, capitala distracțiilor estivale, dar și Mangalia (care s-a trezit la viață, era și timpul) etc. Foarte active, semn că piața românească e din ce în ce mai atractivă au fost organizațiile regionale și internaționale. Pe o suprafață de 11.700 de metri pătrați au expus companii din România, Croația, Grecia, Israel, Italia, Iordania, Polonia, Spania. Standuri oficiale au avut Bulgaria, Maroc, Malaezia, Moldova, Serbia, Turcia si Ungaria. Gradul de internaționalizare a fost de 34%, cu 7% mai mult decât la ediția similară din 2014. Unul dintre cele mai elegante standuri a fost cel al companiei flydubai. flydubai a prezentat la TTR, oferte atractive pentru călătorii de vacanță și de business, acoperind o rețea cu 90 de destinații ce conectează întreaga lume. Comentând participarea de la Târgul de Turism de la București Jeyhun Efendi, Senior Vice President Commercial (UAE, EU, ME, CIS) al flydubai a spus: “În cei peste doi ani de când operăm pe piața românească am observat o puternică creștere a călătoriilor înspre și dinspre Dubai, cu conexiuni înspre destinații ca Oman, Sri Lanka și Maldive. Și pe viitor vom căuta să oferim servicii mai prietenoase pentru pasagerii aeronavelor noastre dornici să exploreze zone incitante spre care zburăm. Oferim de asemenea servicii prioritare pentru Business Class și prețuri promoționale pentru secțiunea Economy Class, precum și pentru familiile cu copii sub 12 ani”.\r\n\r\nUnele țări ori regiuni au optat pentru conferințe de presă, altele pentru evenimente care s-au desfășurat înaintea începerii TTR sau pe parcursul acestuia. Oficiul de turism al Tunisiei, împreună cu operatorul Kartago Tour (Reprezentanța din Cluj e condusă de Souani Haithem), au organizat sub patronajul Ambasadei de la București, condusă de ES Boutheina Labidi, o ”Seara Tunisiană”. Prilej ideal de a promova printr-o paradă a modei, creații inspirate din tradițiile populare tunisiene. Designul, culorile, bijuteriile au evocat unicitatea unei destinații de vacanță din ce în ce mai căutată. Republica Moldova și-a prezentat brandul de țară (Slogan - Descoperă drumurile vieții) la standul său dar și în cadrul unei seri dedicată vinurilor și atracțiilor turistice la Restaurantul-Muzeu Vatra Neamului. Iordania a prezentat la rândul său mai multe atracții de vacanță, Petra fiind obiectivul-marcă al acestei țări. Grecii au ”tras”, la rândul lor din toate părțile. Salonicul a fost vedeta simpozionului tematic desfășurat sub sloganul ”Multe povești, o singură inimă”. în cadrul parteneriatului cu firma de consultanță Tourism Plus. Moderatorul Nikos C. Sapountzis și Spiros Pengas, viceprimar cu probleme de turism al Salonicului, au oferit invitaților posibilitatea de a vorbi despre atuurile turistice ale orașului dar și despre potențialul educațional deținut de acesta. Oficialitățile din regiunea Larisa, n-au scăpat ocazia să ne arate cum se fac banii din promovarea Muntelui lui Zeus și a împrejurimilor dominate de măslini, de ape albastre și plaje. La standul Regiunii Macedoniei de Est - Tracia, din nordul Greciei s-a lăsat cu muzică și dans. De la Michael Amiridis, vice-guvernator pe probleme de turism, am aflat că regiunea este foarte apreciată de turiștii români îndrăgostiți de natură și gastronomie. În plus touroperatorul Mouzenidis Travel (reprezentanța din România de condusă de Cristiana Barcun), a prezentat oportunitățile de dezvoltare pentru turismul medical dar și pentru Real Estate.\r\n\r\n„Ne-am bucurat de un număr mare de vizitatori la Rompexo, semn că bucureștenii, și nu numai, și-au făcut un obicei din a veni la TTR. De multe ori, turiștii decid în timpul târgului sau la puțin timp după, unde își vor petrece următoarea vacanță. Cele mai cerute au fost destinațiile tradiționale, România, Bulgaria, Grecia și Turcia. Vedeta litoralului rămâne Mamaia, însă, se observă o creștere și pentru zona de Sud” - spunea Aurelian Marin, noul președinte al ANAT. Un alt travel agent Alin Burcea (Președinte Paralela 45), este de părere că publicul consumator începe să-și schimbe opțiunile, este mai flexibil și dorește alte tipuri de oferte. ”S-a simțit și la actuala ediție. Oamenii nu mai agreează vacanțe lungi de 2-3 săptămâni. Mai ales populația tânără dorește să-și valorifice timpul în 2 sau chiar 3 vacanțe mai scurte, pe care le petrec combinat în țară și străinătate. Cursele charter vor fi la mare căutare”. Rodica Pencea, reprezentantul Organizației Patronale a Turismului Balnear din România (OPTBR), consideră la rândul său că acest segment se repoziționează rapid prin investițiile realizate. ”În cadrul seminarului pe care l-am organizat am prezentat 3 noi investiții competitive pe plan internațional - Complexul Lotus de la Băile Felix (cu 16 piscine), hotelul Brădet din Covasna, respectiv Complexul de bazine interioare și exterioare de la Călimănești-Căciulata”.\r\n\r\nPersoanele cu vârsta de peste 55 de ani au fost în căutarea programelor pentru seniori în Spania, Italia, Grecia, Dubai etc. În ceea ce privește destinațiile exotice, Republica Dominicană a fost vedeta târgului. Cel mai asaltat stand a fost cel al firmei Christian Tour, care a inspirat și alte agenții să practice vânzări...la botul calului. ”Am observat că odată cu creșterea puterii de cumpărare cererea s-a diversificat. Foarte bine primite au fost programele Senior Voyage, dar și cele dedicate familiilor cu copii, pentru care am pregătit pliante și pachete speciale” - ne-a declarat directorul Marius Pandel.\r\n\r\nRecenta ediție a Târgului de Turism al Romaniei a găzduit Saloanele Nautic, respectiv Expo Sport și Agrement. Aici vizitatorii au interacționat cu experți în domeniul nautic, au admirat ambarcțiunile de agrement expuse și au participat la competiții de ciclism, curse cu obstacole etc. „Am fost încântat să observ că agențiile de turism dezvoltă produse turistice atractive pe piața locală. Pot spune că ediția 33 a fost una marcată de noutăți care, sper, au fost pe placul publicului” - a declarat Cătălin Trifu, directorul general al Romexpo. TTR, a fost organizat în parteneriat cu ANAT, FPTR, OPTBR și ANTREC.

El se află în construcţie în localitatea 23 August (judeţul Constanţa) la un kilometru nord faţă de staţiunea Olimp, într-o zonă pitorească, înconjurat de pădure, lacul Tatlageac şi Marea Neagră.\r\n\r\nÎn prima etapă vor fi finalizate până în vara anului viitor 7 clădiri, a câte 9-10 etaje, cu peste 900 de apartamente de vacanţă, 8 piscine, amenajări peisagistice, terenurile sportive, cluburi, baruri, parcare şi plajă privată. În a doua etapă, ce se va încheia în iunie 2016, vor apărea hotelul şi Centrul de sănătate. Complexul de cazare, ce va oferi servicii tip All Inclusive, va avea circa 400 de camere.\r\n\r\n\r\nEl este prevăzut cu un Business center multifuncţional în care se vor organiza evenimente de circa 1.000 de invitaţi, Health Club, Spa şi piscina acoperită. În final, capacitatea de cazare săptămânală va fi de circa 3-4.000 de persoane. Un teatru de vară de tip amfiteatru, o plaja privată cu o suprafaţă de aproximativ 9.000 metri pătraţi şi o parcare privată amplasata pe un teren de 13.000 de metri pătraţi vor deservi atât complexul rezidenţial, cât şi hotelul.

\r\n\r\nAici în Mallorca treburile sunt foarte serioase. O întreagă industrie turistică a fost organizată pentru a satisface pasiunile şi fuga după sănătate a acestor turişti care nu se odihnesc niciodată, decât activ. Este lesne de înţeles că nimeni nu-şi ia bicicleta sub braţ şi se urcă în avion cu ea ca să vină pe insulă. Aşa, că la locul faptei, găseşti orice tip de bicicletă îţi doreşti, de o persoană, 2, 3 şi chiar pentru o familie mai numeroasă. Fireşte, contra cost. Ai la dispoziţie abonament pentru o zi, sau pentru mai multe. Normal, ultima variantă e mai ieftină. N-aveţi nicio grijă că nici copii nu au fost uitaţi. Cum ziua bună se cunoaşte de dimineaţă, ostilităţile sportive încep cam aşa. După ce ţi-ai luat micul dejun te echipezi sub atenta îndrumare a instructorului. În faţa hotelului are loc un spectacol pe care merită să-l trăiţi! Din nişte camioane cu remorcă acoperite cu un burduf etanş sunt coborâte în câteva minute zeci de biciclete (în funcţie de numărul comunităţii sau al membrilor de familie) de diverse dimensiuni. Operaţiunea este un spectacol de culori şi disciplină.

Merită să daţi la pedale şi până la Valldemossa, o mănăstire celebră şi prin faptul că în perioada 1838-1839, aici au locuit şi trăit o poveste de dragoste franţuzoaica George Sand şi Frederich Chopin. Concerte de pian din oră în oră. Ce gusturi aveau oamenii ăştia! Dar ca să v-o spunem pe a bună, nouă ne-a plăcut cel mai mult la Porto Cristo. O peşteră care a meritat toţi banii, chiar şi mai mulţi decât am dat pentru intrare. Nu este semnalată în prea multe ghiduri, dar ea face parte din noul curent al turismului mallorcan. Peştera e în apropiere de Manacor şi este staţie turistică obligatorie pentru circuite. În interiorul ei aveţi ocazia să vă plimbaţi cu barca şi să urmăriţi proiectate pe pereţii lacului, holograme însoţite de muzica din concertele lui Mozart (Magical Mozart). La fel de magic este spectacolul cu Jules Verne în rol de personaj principal, şi invenţiile lui prezentate pe pereţii peşterii cu aceleaşi efecte holografice (Fantastic Dreams).\r\n\r\nAcesta a şi fost distins în 2006, cu Premiul 1 de către Consiliul Internaţional al Muzeelor (AVICOM).

În interiorul ei aveţi ocazia să vă plimbaţi cu barca şi să urmăriţi proiectate pe pereţii lacului, holograme însoţite de muzica din concertele lui Mozart (Magical Mozart). La fel de magic este spectacolul cu Jules Verne în rol de personaj principal, şi invenţiile lui prezentate pe pereţii peşterii cu aceleaşi efecte holografice (Fantastic Dreams).\r\n\r\nAcesta a şi fost distins în 2006, cu Premiul 1 de către Consiliul Internaţional al Muzeelor (AVICOM). Peştera a fost descoperită în 1905 de către marele speolog şi pioner al turismului Don Pedro Caldentay. Făceţi-vă timp.

Artistul este considerat a fi cel mai important sculptor al secolului 20 şi unul dintre cei mai valoroşi ai tuturor timpurilor. La Târgu Jiu, Brâncuşi a creat singurul său ansamblu sculptural în aer liber, unic în România dar şi în lume. Construit între 1937-1938, acesta reuneşte Masa Tăcerii, Poarta Sărutului şi Coloana fără de sfârşit (Coloana Infinitului). Brâncuşi (1876-1957) se trage dintr-o familie de ţărani din Hobiţa (în apropiere de Tg. Jiu). El a urmat Şcoala de Meserii din Craiova (1894-1898) şi Şcoala de Arte Frumoase din Bucureşti (1898-1902), În 1904 a plecat la Paris. În 1937, Brâncuşi a revenit în România şi, la solicitarea “Ligii Naţionale a Femeilor din Gorj” - o Societate importantă pentru promovarea culturii şi industriei din regiune -, realiza un amplu proiect în memoria celor care au murit în luptele de la Tg. Jiu, din Primul război mondial. Cea mai « fotogenica » dintre opere – “Coloana infinitului” - are o înălţime de 29 de metri şi este alcătuită din module sub formă de clepsidră din bronz.\r\n\r\nPrezent la festivitatea de decernare a Golden Apple, ce s-a desfăsurat pe 16 octombrie 2014, la Masa Tăcerii din Parcul Central din Târgu Jiu, Florin Jianu, ministru secretar de stat pentru turism, a declarat “Sunt încîntat să particip la acest eveniment unic. Iniţiativa FIJET România, în parteneriat cu administraţia locală şi mediul privat de afaceri, dovedeşte că ţara noastră are un potenţial concret de promovare, nu numai strategii şi proiecte în derulare. Sunt convins că acest premiu va contribui la creşterea vizibilităţii oraşului Târgu Jiu, a patrimoniului cultural creat de Brâncuşi, dar în acelaşi timp şi a numărului de turişti care îl vor vizita”.\r\n\r\nDupă ce a decernat trofeul Starev Plamen (Bulgaria), Preşedintele Comisiei Golden Apple a FIJET, a declarat: „Noi avem un comitet pentru acordarea trofeului „Mărul de Aur”, iar comitetul a primit dosare cu propuneri din 5 ţări. În final au fost selectate doar 3. Oraşul lui Constantin Brâncuşi a primit voturile acestui Comitet pentru ca FIJET să-i atribuie acest prestigios premiu. Am văzut un film, am văzut documentarea, le-am studiat şi eu cred că acest oraş românesc, cu tot patrimoniul său cultural şi spiritual, merită această distincţie. Am făcut parte din delegaţia FIJET care a vizitat anul trecut ţara dumneavoastră. Am fost impresionat de frumuseţea naturală a zonei, de complexul monumental creat de Constantin Brâncuşi, de atmosfera unică a oraşului şi locurilor pe care le-am vizitat. Am convingerea, după cum am discutat în aceste zile, că autorităţile locale vor continua să se implice la fel de serios în creşterea acestei destinaţii turistice excepţionale”.\r\n\r\n \r\nLa rândul său Mohamed Salah Attia (Egipt), membru marcant al FIJET International a subliniat: „Am trăit o atmosferă deosebită aici la Târgu Jiu. Am învăţat foarte multe despre gorjeni dar şi despre poporul român. M-a impresionat într-un mod aparte faptul că evenimentul a fost susţinut printr-o muncă de voluntariat în care toţi partenerii au dat dovadă de devotament şi implicare de o foarte bună calitate şi profesionalism. Apoi am apreciat ospitalitatea gazdelor, care vorbeşte mult despre profunzimea spirituală şi istorică a locurilor unde s-a născut Brâncuşi. În fine, am descoperit un model de colaborare între jurnaliştii de turism – reprezentaţi în ţara dumneavoastră de FIJET România -, mediul de afaceri ale cărui interese au fost cristalizate de Laura Dragu -, şi administraţia locală, toţi dovedindu-se parteneri de cursă lungă. Felicitări pentru organizarea festivităţii decernării Golden Apple, felicitări Târgu Jiu, felicitări România, pentru primirea celui de-al 5-lea Trofeu”.
\r\nDe ce a acordat FIJET acest premiu oraşului Târgu Jiu? „Misiunea FIJET este promovarea turismului şi contribuţia la susţinerea ori păstrarea patrimoniului fiecărei ţări. Târgu Jiu şi regiunea Gorjului reprezintă locuri unde se găsesc toate elementele de patrimoniu caracteristice României: cultură, artă, natură, tradiţii. Cred că această zonă, oraşul lui Brâncuşi, ne arată cum trebuie păstrate valorile unei ţări. Sunt mândră că v-am cunoscut ţara şi o voi recomanda cu căldura tutoror celor care vor dori să o viziteze” – a precizat cu aceeaşi ocazie Marijana Rebic (Croaţia), secretar general FIJET.
\r\n„Salutăm decizia anunţată de către Tijani HADDAD, preşedintele FIJET International, de a acorda în acest an, unul dintre cele trei Golden Apple, oraşului lui Brâncuşi. Trofeul a mai fost oferit, în 2014, Peşterii Postojna din Slovenia şi oraşului antic Byblos din Liban. În ceea ce ne priveşte acesta este al 5-lea Golden Apple ce premiază atracţii ale turismul românesc. Obţinerea lui este rezultatul unei munci de aproape 4 ani, a membrilor Clubului Presei de Turism - FIJET România, susţinută în parteneriat cu autorităţile locale şi centrale, cu Asociaţia Profesională Patronală de Turism Gorj (APPTG). Primul Golden Apple pentru România a revenit, în 1975, atracţiilor din Bucovina. Următoarele 3 au fost decernate, în 2009, zonei ecoturistice Mărginimea Sibiului, Rezervaţiei Biosferei Delta Dunării, respectiv companiei aeriene Blue Air ” - a precizat Marian Constantinescu, preşedintele Clubului Presei de Turism - FIJET România.
\r\n„Decernarea premiului Golden Apple, oraşului Târgu Jiu, recompensează munca şi încrederea autorităţilor locale şi centrale, a mediului de afaceri şi asociativ din turismul românesc. Monumentul creat de Brâncuşi, un magnet pentru turişti, e un spaţiu magic al spiritualităţii. Celor care vor veni să-l vadă, le lansez invitaţia de a explora şi alte atracţii turistice din judeţ: Casa lui Brâncuşi de la Hobiţa, recent restaurată, mănăstirile Tismana, Polovragi şi Lainici, peşterile Polovragi şi cea a Muierilor, peste 25 de programe dedicate călătoriilor în natură şi de aventură. Oferta noastră e generoasa şi provocatoare. De aceea vă propunem să ,,Alegeţi România, Alegeţi Târgu Jiu!” – a subliniat Ion Călinoiu, preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean Gorj. La rândul său primarul Florin Cârciumaru a declarat: “Ne-am dorit acest trofeu şi, iată, visul nostru s-a împlinit. Primăria cu experţii săi vor continua să dezvolte infrastructura turistică şi culturală dar şi pe cea economică. Important este să lăsăm generaţiilor viitoare repere valoroase care să înobileze aici, la Târgu Jiu, ansamblul monumental creat de Brâncuşi”.

\r\nDe ce a acordat FIJET acest premiu oraşului Târgu Jiu? „Misiunea FIJET este promovarea turismului şi contribuţia la susţinerea ori păstrarea patrimoniului fiecărei ţări. Târgu Jiu şi regiunea Gorjului reprezintă locuri unde se găsesc toate elementele de patrimoniu caracteristice României: cultură, artă, natură, tradiţii. Cred că această zonă, oraşul lui Brâncuşi, ne arată cum trebuie păstrate valorile unei ţări. Sunt mândră că v-am cunoscut ţara şi o voi recomanda cu căldura tutoror celor care vor dori să o viziteze” – a precizat cu aceeaşi ocazie Marijana Rebic (Croaţia), secretar general FIJET.
\r\n„Salutăm decizia anunţată de către Tijani HADDAD, preşedintele FIJET International, de a acorda în acest an, unul dintre cele trei Golden Apple, oraşului lui Brâncuşi. Trofeul a mai fost oferit, în 2014, Peşterii Postojna din Slovenia şi oraşului antic Byblos din Liban. În ceea ce ne priveşte acesta este al 5-lea Golden Apple ce premiază atracţii ale turismul românesc. Obţinerea lui este rezultatul unei munci de aproape 4 ani, a membrilor Clubului Presei de Turism - FIJET România, susţinută în parteneriat cu autorităţile locale şi centrale, cu Asociaţia Profesională Patronală de Turism Gorj (APPTG). Primul Golden Apple pentru România a revenit, în 1975, atracţiilor din Bucovina. Următoarele 3 au fost decernate, în 2009, zonei ecoturistice Mărginimea Sibiului, Rezervaţiei Biosferei Delta Dunării, respectiv companiei aeriene Blue Air ” - a precizat Marian Constantinescu, preşedintele Clubului Presei de Turism - FIJET România.
\r\n„Decernarea premiului Golden Apple, oraşului Târgu Jiu, recompensează munca şi încrederea autorităţilor locale şi centrale, a mediului de afaceri şi asociativ din turismul românesc. Monumentul creat de Brâncuşi, un magnet pentru turişti, e un spaţiu magic al spiritualităţii. Celor care vor veni să-l vadă, le lansez invitaţia de a explora şi alte atracţii turistice din judeţ: Casa lui Brâncuşi de la Hobiţa, recent restaurată, mănăstirile Tismana, Polovragi şi Lainici, peşterile Polovragi şi cea a Muierilor, peste 25 de programe dedicate călătoriilor în natură şi de aventură. Oferta noastră e generoasa şi provocatoare. De aceea vă propunem să ,,Alegeţi România, Alegeţi Târgu Jiu!” – a subliniat Ion Călinoiu, preşedintele Consiliului Judeţean Gorj. La rândul său primarul Florin Cârciumaru a declarat: “Ne-am dorit acest trofeu şi, iată, visul nostru s-a împlinit. Primăria cu experţii săi vor continua să dezvolte infrastructura turistică şi culturală dar şi pe cea economică. Important este să lăsăm generaţiilor viitoare repere valoroase care să înobileze aici, la Târgu Jiu, ansamblul monumental creat de Brâncuşi”.

TWF a avut un Partener Oficial – Selgros Cash & Carry dar şi alţi promotori printre care Cotnari şi Izvorul Minunilor. Pe linie profesională evenimentul a fost susţinut de către Asociaţia Somelierilor Români (ASR) şi Organizaţia Somelierilor Români 2011 (OSR), respectiv Primăria Braşov, care au dat consistenţă tuturor evenimentelor conexe derulate pe perioada Târgului. Pe lângă vinuri şi alte produse conexe de excepţie, vizitatorii s-au putut delecta papilele gustative cu cele mai distinse brânzeturi şi mezeluri oferite de nume binecunoscute în industria alimentară: Delaco şi Reinert, care sustin acest eveniment pentru a doua oara consecutiv, tot în calitate de Parteneri.

Aceştia au avut în spate mărcile Selgros, ale hotelurilor Aro Palace, Alpin şi ale restaurantului Prato. Trupa COCO şi-a lansat, nu întâmplător, primul disc „Învingător”, lucru inedit, la un târg de vinuri. Pe de o parte ea îşi are rădăcinile în Braşov, iar printre sponsori se numără companiile Vinul.Ro şi Kron-Lufthansa City Center.

Gazdele au evidentiat o parte dintre obiectivele turistice - Rabat, Fes, Meknes si Marrakech etc. Au fost analizate cele mai interesante modalitati de a relansa eficient parteneriatul intre Regatul Marocului si Romania, in diferite domenii, dar mai ales in turism.\r\n\r\n\r\n\"Acest sector ocupa al doilea loc in cadrul structurii economice a tarii atat sub aspectul contributiei la PIB cat si in ceea ce priveste ocuparea fortei de munca“ - preciza doamna ambasador. La randul sau directorul Mimi a aratat ca \"in prognozele noastre economice estimam ca in 2020 sa atragem in jur de 20 de milioane de turisti.\r\n\r\nDorim sa ajungem in acea perspectiva printre cele mai importante destinatii mondiale. Pentru atingerea obiectivului, Marocul a realizat un plan care tinteste pietele in plina dezvoltare, in special din Europa de Est, din Asia, America de Nord si America Latina. Tara noastra s-a concentrat pe diversificarea ofertei turistice pentru a raspunde asteptarilor vizitatorilor straini dar si pe consolidarea legaturilor sale aeriene, prin incheierea de parteneriate cu cat mai multe companii low cost\".\r\n\r\n\r\nTunisia si-a promovat la randul ei bogatele traditiile - de la cele arhitecturale pana la cele artistice - dansurile si arta olaritului fiind la mare pret.

The owner Mazen Al Ramahi introduces their latest acquisition.\r\n\r\n“I found a pure gemstone in the city centre, when I discovered this small building in VigyázóFerencStreet. I knew at a glance that we were going to start a lovely, interesting, and successful hotel project if we dreamt this classic, typical Budapest-style tenement were the youngest member of our hotel chain”Mazen Al Ramahi, the owner of Boutique Hotel Budapest in Só Street and Continental Hotel Budapest in DohányStreet said.\r\n\r\nPrevious success stories, the same team.\r\n\r\nMr.Ramahi knows no compromise to quality. He keeps an eye on all and in minute detail, including planning, construction, and operation at later stages of his hotels.In response to international trends, he opened Boutique Hotel in 2006 to give a boost to local urban “lifestyle” hotel development. Ever since its opening in 2010 Continental Hotel has been a winner of a number of awards recognizing its excellence in architecture and hotel industry as well as superiority in occupation rates compared to other urban hotels of the same standard in Budapest.\r\n\r\n“The new hotel is named Prestige Hotel Budapest and was planned and has been constructed by the same team we have already had two other successful projects: PéterHegedűs, architect, VirágVörösandCsillaSáfrányinterior designersproduce a great combination of traditional values already existing in a classic building and modernity giving birth to spaces and means meeting the demands of our age.”\r\n\r\n\r\nThe best of all, spiced with some gastronomical experience “Before the opening scheduled to next spring not only builders and interior designers have been busy, but many other teams have also set to work, especially with focus on sales and marketing.” the owner said.\r\n\r\nThere will be 85 rooms, a restaurant, and a wellness department available from next spring. As the classic hallways in the rotunda are preserved up to the sixth floor, guestscan walk in the hallways around the atrium and wonder at the imposinginternal space, the glass roof letting natural light flood in from above, and the exclusive Cavalli furniture in the lobby.\r\n\r\n“We have two hotels already operating and providing great gastronomical experience to guest. Restaurant ARAZ in Continental offers true culinary pleasures. We aim to achieve high quality in Prestige too. Now we can promise the restaurant in Prestige Hotel Budapest will be another specialty not only of our services but also in the gastronomy of Budapest.”\r\n\r\nShine and a small piece of history in the heart of Pest\r\n“By preserving the luxury and upper-class elegance of the 1900s in the character, Prestige Hotel Budapest will attract even for tourists coming from far countries. You can taste the atmosphere of the Monarchy,enjoy the shine and luxury of the peaceful early 1900s,as both the staff’s clothesas well as various hotelwares will reflect the style that marked that era.\r\n\r\nI am convinced that the hotel will be popular among tourists visiting the country as well as business travellers.

This is what Prestige Hotel Budapest, a new hotel development project in district V, will look like. The owner Mazen Al Ramahi introduces their latest acquisition.\r\n\r\n“I found a pure gemstone in the city centre, when I discovered this small building in VigyázóFerencStreet. I knew at a glance that we were going to start a lovely, interesting, and successful hotel project if we dreamt this classic, typical Budapest-style tenement were the youngest member of our hotel chain”Mazen Al Ramahi, the owner of Boutique Hotel Budapest in Só Street and Continental Hotel Budapest in DohányStreet said.\r\n\r\nPrevious success stories, the same team.\r\n\r\nMr.Ramahi knows no compromise to quality. He keeps an eye on all and in minute detail, including planning, construction, and operation at later stages of his hotels.In response to international trends, he opened Boutique Hotel in 2006 to give a boost to local urban “lifestyle” hotel development. Ever since its opening in 2010 Continental Hotel has been a winner of a number of awards recognizing its excellence in architecture and hotel industry as well as superiority in occupation rates compared to other urban hotels of the same standard in Budapest.\r\n\r\n“The new hotel is named Prestige Hotel Budapest and was planned and has been constructed by the same team we have already had two other successful projects: PéterHegedűs, architect, VirágVörösandCsillaSáfrányinterior designersproduce a great combination of traditional values already existing in a classic building and modernity giving birth to spaces and means meeting the demands of our age.”\r\n\r\n\r\nThe best of all, spiced with some gastronomical experience “Before the opening scheduled to next spring not only builders and interior designers have been busy, but many other teams have also set to work, especially with focus on sales and marketing.” the owner said.\r\n\r\nThere will be 85 rooms, a restaurant, and a wellness department available from next spring. As the classic hallways in the rotunda are preserved up to the sixth floor, guestscan walk in the hallways around the atrium and wonder at the imposinginternal space, the glass roof letting natural light flood in from above, and the exclusive Cavalli furniture in the lobby.\r\n\r\n“We have two hotels already operating and providing great gastronomical experience to guest.

Now we can promise the restaurant in Prestige Hotel Budapest will be another specialty not only of our services but also in the gastronomy of Budapest.”\r\n\r\nShine and a small piece of history in the heart of Pest\r\n“By preserving the luxury and upper-class elegance of the 1900s in the character, Prestige Hotel Budapest will attract even for tourists coming from far countries. You can taste the atmosphere of the Monarchy,enjoy the shine and luxury of the peaceful early 1900s,as both the staff’s clothesas well as various hotelwares will reflect the style that marked that era.\r\n\r\nI am convinced that the hotel will be popular among tourists visiting the country as well as business travellers.

\r\nDaily Mail archived a new article in which the Bran Castle in Romania is presented as being „Dracula’s home”. Richly illustarted with photos from the inside and outside, the place is recommended for the voyage on Count Dracula’s trail – the charracter being ”one of the darkest figures of the European mithology”. The author also underlines the fact that some tourists say that Dracula never existed. „And obviously they are right. The most famous vampire of all times had been created by the Irish novelist Bram Stoker in his Gothic novel Dracula, published in 1897”. Stoker never visited Romania, so he has never been in Bran either. The article states that apparently there is a connection of the place with the ruler Vlad the 3rd of Wallachia and it seems that the one that “sold” this information to Stoker had been Armin Vambery, a Jewish man that had as a passion travels and the Ottoman Empire, a consultant of the writer regarding the Transylvanian culture of the time.\r\n\r\nThe Bran castle is now the property of Dominic, Maria Magdalena and Elizabeth, successors of the Habsburgs.\r\nEuropean Aerobatic Championships in Deva\r\nBeginning of November took place in Wroclaw - Poland, the reunion of the Aerobatic Commission (CIVA) of the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (FAI).

Since then the planes of the company flew 150.415.384 kilometers, which means circling the Globe for 3.753 times. During all this time the flights attendants accumulated over 188.000 flight hours, transporting over 11.500.000 passengers – a number that means more than half the population of Romania. Through the taxes paid to the state budget Blue Air contributed with 133.580.115 RON, which means 148.422 minimum salaries. ”Ten fantastic years have passed and they give us the strength to go forward. Greatest thanks to all our passengers” said Gheorghe Răcaru, founder and general manager of the carrier.
SHENZHEN – open gates towards great business\r\n\r\nBucharest and Shenzhen became connected in 2014, after the Official Memorandum signed between Romania and China. Four great Chinese companies invested in Romania, among which Huawei and ZTE.
\r\nDaily Mail archived a new article in which the Bran Castle in Romania is presented as being „Dracula’s home”. Richly illustarted with photos from the inside and outside, the place is recommended for the voyage on Count Dracula’s trail – the charracter being ”one of the darkest figures of the European mithology”. The author also underlines the fact that some tourists say that Dracula never existed. „And obviously they are right. The most famous vampire of all times had been created by the Irish novelist Bram Stoker in his Gothic novel Dracula, published in 1897”. Stoker never visited Romania, so he has never been in Bran either. The article states that apparently there is a connection of the place with the ruler Vlad the 3rd of Wallachia and it seems that the one that “sold” this information to Stoker had been Armin Vambery, a Jewish man that had as a passion travels and the Ottoman Empire, a consultant of the writer regarding the Transylvanian culture of the time.\r\n\r\nThe Bran castle is now the property of Dominic, Maria Magdalena and Elizabeth, successors of the Habsburgs.\r\nEuropean Aerobatic Championships in Deva\r\nBeginning of November took place in Wroclaw - Poland, the reunion of the Aerobatic Commission (CIVA) of the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (FAI).

\r\nAcesta a fost genericul sub care Muzeul Naţional al Satului „Dimitrie Gusti”, în parteneriat cu Asociaţia pentru Cultură şi Tradiţii Anton Pann, au desfășurat un eveniment cultural elegant, ce se înscrie în calendarul de manifestări dedicate Marilor Personalităţi ale României. Programul a cuprins o paletă variată de intervenţii - cântec, rostire bogată, poezie -, menite să ilustreze viaţa şi opera lui Anton Pann - scriitor, profesor, folclorist, culegător de muzică populară, publicist, compozitor, literat. Actorul Nicolae Alexandru Mihai de la Teatrul Constantin Tănase, a conturat imaginea complexă a lui Anton Pann autorul, printre altele, al libretului muzical, pe versurile lui Andrei Mureșeanu, al Imnului Național al României - ”Deșteaptă-te Române”. Artistul a legat cu pricepere momentele cu ”Povești ale vorbii”, cu snoave și glume culese din cărțile scrise de Anton Pann. Zicerile oltenești au fost făcute în cadrul unui dialog muzical-literar de cunoscutul rapsod Ion Creţeanu din Voineasa - Olt şi scriitorul Miron Manega.\r\n![\"Anton](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Anton-Pann-064.jpg\")
\r\nDar ”mătăsurile muzicale” care au răsfățat audiența selectă au fost etalate de către membrii formației de muzică veche ”Anton Pann” condusă de muzicologul Constantin Răileanu. Preumblarea prin istoria muzicală orientală, balcanică, ni i-au adus alături de Anton Pann pe Constantin Brâncoveanu, Dimitrie Cantemir, figuri celebre ale conducătorilor otomani, mari iubitori, cunoscători și, uneori compozitori de finețuri muzicale. Coordonarea evenimentului a aparținut Aureliei Cosma, un promotor de activități autentice care au marcat mai multe decenii dezvoltarea Muzeului ”Dimitrie Gusti”. Și după 160 de ani Anton Pann rămâne contemporan cu noi. Îi auziți proverbele, muzica, deseori fără să știți că au fost create de el.

\r\nAMERICANII pun FĂGĂRAȘUL pe 2\r\nActiva publicația americană on-line The Huffington Post pare să aibă o feblețe durabilă pentru atracțiile turistice din țara noastră. Editorii săi au alcătuit încă un top al celor mai frumoase 10 castele din lume. În acesta pe locul 2, după Castelul Neuschwanstein, din Germania, a fost nominalizată Cetatea Fagarașului din Transilvania, într-o companie cât se poate de selectă. Ea este urmată de Castelele Durham (Marea Britanie), Blarney (Irlanda), Edinburgh (Scoția), Frontenac din Quebec (Canada), Cardiff (Țara Galilor), Castelul și Grădinile „de Villandry” din Franța, Castelul Heidelberg (Germania), respectiv Castelul Hearst din California (SUA).

\r\nBucureşti şi Shenzhen au devenit oraşe prietene în 2014, în urma Memorandumului de înțelegere semnat între România şi China. La ora actuală, Shenzhen este înfrăţit cu 63 de oraşe din întreaga lume. Patru companii majore din metropola chineză au investit în România, printre ele numărându-se Huawei şi ZTE.\r\n\r\nPentru a cunoaște mai bine oferta comercială și turistică a acestui oraș firma Innovation Travel a organizat, în parteneriat cu Primăria Municipiului Bucureşti şi cu Municipalitatea Shenzhen, un eveniment de prezentare a acestui oraș cu o populație de peste 10,5 milioane de locuitori. Printre invitaţi s-au numărat Dan Darabonţ, viceprimarul municipiului Bucureşti. Delegaţia chineză a fost condusă de Yao Weizhi, Directorul adjunct al Departamentului de Afaceri Externe al Shenzhen şi de Sally Lee, Directorul adjunct al Direcţiei de Promovare a oraşului Shenzhen.\r\n\r\nReprezentanții chinezi au subliniat că în 2013 volumul de import-export dintre oraşul aflat pe coasta de sud a Chinei şi România a ajuns la 290 de milioane de dolari. Shenzhen este unul dintre cele mai importante şi dinamice oraşe ale Chinei. Vârsta medie a locuitorilor este de 29 de ani! Metropola reprezintă cel mai inovator oraş al Chinei, cu 9.600 de aplicaţii patentate, 40% din totalul patentelor înregistrate în Republica Populara Chineză. Dacă în 1979 era doar un sat de pescari, azi el e conectat cu orice punct de pe glob prin 26 de linii aeriene şi 237 de linii internaţionale de navigaţie.

\r\nCotidianul DailyMail a arhivat încă un articol în care Castelul Bran din România este prezentat drept „casa lui Dracula”. Ilustrat bogat cu fotografii din interior și exterior el e recomandat pentru o ”incursiune fascinantă” pe urmele Contelui Dracula - ”una dintre cele mai întunecate figuri ale mitologiei europene”. Autorul subliniază și faptul că unii turiști spun că Dracula nu a existat. „Și în mod evident au dreptate. Cel mai faimos vampir din toate timpurile a fost creat de romancierul irlandez Bram Stoker în romanul său gotic Dracula, publicat în 1897”. Stoker, nu a vizitat niciodată România, deci nici Castelul Bran. Cu toate acestea, personajul istoric de la care a pornit Stoker în realizarea romanului, domnitorul Vlad al III-lea al Țării Românești - are o legătură cu cetatea, se precizează în articol. Se pare că omul care \"i-a vândut\" povestea este Armin Vambery, un evreu pasionat de călătorii și Imperiul Otoman, ce a fost consultantul lui Stoker privind cultura transilvăneană. Având în vedere pasiunea lui Vambery pentru turci, nu este de mirare că Vlad Țepeș apare ca un personaj negativ, deși în România era văzut ca un domnitor luminat și justițiar ce-i pedepsea aspru pe hoți și dușmani.\r\n\r\nCastelul Bran se află în proprietatea urmașilor dinastiei de Habsburg - Dominic, Maria Magdalena și Elizabeth.\r\n\r\nCALABRIA - o invitație fascinantă\r\nConsiglio Regionale della Calabria a organizat, la restaurantul Cucina Borghese din București, Simpozionul \"Descoperă Fascinanta Calabrie\". Evenimentul a avut ca scop promovarea unor oferte ale industriilor alimentară și a turismului (munte, mare, agroturism în Calabria). Organizatorii au prezentat invitaților produse tradiționale ce vor contribui la o mai bună cunoaștere a provinciei sud italiene. \r\nAcestea au fost susținute alocuțiunile lui Pasquale Anastasi - Directorul General al Departamentului \"Turism, Sport, Spectacol şi Politică\" al Regiunii Calabria;\r\n\r\nConsolata Loddo - Director al Departametului \"Promovare şi Organizare Turistică\" al Regiunii Calabria; Francesco Giovinazzo - Director Operativ al Aeroportului Reggio Calabria; Carlo Porcino - Preşedinte al Aeroportului Reggio Calabria.

\r\nLângă mănăstirea Tismana se află în curs de amenajare muzeul Tezaurului. El este amplasat chiar în perimetrul peșterii unde în 1944 a fost ascunsă o mare parte din rezerva de aur a României. Denumită ”Neptun sau ”Tismana” operațiunea a fost derulată de Banca Națională în colaborare cu Guvernul, Armata, CFR-ul și Mitropolia Olteniei. Aici au fost depozitate în secret 242 de tone de aur din tezaurul BNR și alte 3 tone de aur din tezaurul Băncii Poloniei. Întreaga cantitate de aur a fost păstrată în peștera de lîngă mănăstirea Tismana, judetul Gorj, până în 1947. Proiectul de amenajare a muzeului a fost inițiat în 2007. Finanțarea lucrărilor este asigurată, în cea mai mare parte de către Banca Națională a României.

\r\nÎN 2015, CAMPIONAT EUROPEAN DE ACROBAȚIE LA DEVA\r\nÎn perioada 7 - 9 noiembrie 2014, a avut loc la Wroclaw - Polonia, şedinţa Comisiei pentru Acrobaţie (CIVA) din cadrul Federaţiei Aeronautice Internaţionale (FAI). Reprezentantul României a propus, iar membrii Comisiei au aprobat, ca ediția a IX-a a Campionatului European de Acrobaţie - clasa Advanced (9-th FAI European Advanced Aerobatic Championships - EAAC 2015) să fie găzduită de ţara noastră, ea urmând a fi organizată de Federaţia Aeronautică Română, împreună cu Aeroclubul României. Competiţia va avea loc în perioada 22 iulie - 1 august 2015, la Aeroclubul Teritorial Deva, unitate a Aeroclubului României.
\r\n”Este pentru prima dată când un concurs de acrobaţie aeriană de o asemenea anvergură va fi organizat în România. Merită să reamintesc că, în cursul acestui an, echipa noastră de acrobaţie aeriană s-a clasat pe locul V, după Franţa, Rusia, Ucraina şi SUA şi înaintea unor ţări precum Africa de Sud, Germania, Belgia, Polonia sau Norvegia, la cea de-a XI-a ediţie a Campionatului Mondial de Acrobaţie - clasa Advanced care a avut loc în perioada 7 - 16 august în Slovacia” - ne-a declarat George Rotaru, directorul general al Aeroclublului României.\r\n\r\n \r\nATENȚIE CÎND PLECAȚI SPRE TURCIA \r\nInstituțiile aeroporturare și agențiile de turism semnalează că începând cu data de 1 Ianuarie 2015, s-au modificat condițiile de călătorie ale pasagerilor în Turcia. De aceea înainte de emiterea biletului agenții de turism trebuie să verifice condițiile din TIMATIC si să confirme pasagerilor valabilitatea documentelor de călătorie.
\r\nPasagerii care au pașapoartele valabile mai puțin de 60 de zile nu vor fi admiși în Turcia și compania transportatoare va plăti amenzi, iar pasagerii cu pașapoarte valabile între 60 de zile și 150 de zile, dacă vor fi acceptați, vor plăti amendă.\r\nMAI MULTĂ AVENTURĂ ÎN CARPAŢI\r\nBalu Parc s-a deschis la marginea staţiunii Harghita-Băi. „Parcul de aventuri, construit într-o ambianţă de o frumuseţe rară pe o suprafaţă de 1,5 hectare, are 150 de platforme montate pe copaci, 135 elemente de joc şi 11 trasee cu grade diferite de dificultate atât pentru adulţi cât şi pentru copii” – spune Constantin Chiroşca de la departamentul de merketing. Particularitatea principală a parcului este Tiroliana, fiind “cel mai lung traseu de alunecare din Europa Centrală, cu o lungime de 985 m.” Parcul are o cafenea şi un restaurant, magazin de suveniruri, iar cei ce vor să stea peste noapte pot alege Cabana Balu din apropiere.
\r\n@ PROMOVAREA TURISMULUI MONAHAL ÎN OLTENIA este ceea ce îşi doreşte Consiliul Judeţean Vâlcea printr-un proiect finanţat din fonduri europene, cu o valoare de 220.000 EUR. În judeţul Vâlcea există nu mai puţin de 52 de lăcaşe de cult de patrimoniu, însă cele mai intens promovate vor fi mănăstirile din sud, în numar de 16, printre care: Cozia, Dintr-un Lemn, Hurezi Frăsinei şi Stănişoara.
\r\nTURISMUL PE BICICLETĂ\r\nE un segment ce a fost luat în serios de către specialiștii Autorității naționale pentru Turism (ANT). Ei propun realizarea unei Reţele Naţionale de Trasee Cicloturistice Marcate din România (RNTCMR). Proiectarea, construcţia şi întreţinerea lor va fi finanţată din fonduri publice sau private. Ciclotraseele vor fi clasificate după criteriul extensiei geografice în trei ranguri: naţionale, regionale şi locale.
\r\nDupă criteriul tipului de cale de comunicaţie utilizată vor fi clasificate în două tipuri - de şosea şi de munte, iar după nivelul de dificultate, în patru grade - lejer, mediu, dificil şi expert. Proiectarea, marcarea, monitorizarea şi întreţinerea ciclotraseelor se finanţează din bugetele locale ale judeţelor, precum şi din alte fonduri publice sau private. Implementarea proiectului va fi asigurată de comisii judeţene de ciclotrasee ce vor activa pe lângă consiliile judeţene.\r\n\r\n \r\nS-A DESCHIS AVENTURA PARC\r\n![\"Parasutisti](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Parasutisti-coloana.jpg\")
\r\nComplextul de agrement se află în localitatea Drăguş, judeţul Braşov. Parcul este amplasat lângă pârtia de ski din localitate, are o suprafaţă de 1,1 hectare şi dispune de: 3 trasee de dificultate progresivă, traseu tiroliene, un panou de escaladă cu trei linii principale, tir cu arcul, armă şi pistol, multe alte jocuri adresate copiiilor de diferite vârste, precum şi trasee de minigolf. Amenajarea parcului a costat 40.000 EUR iar investiţia aparţine societaţii Avemaventura SRL.
NOUTĂŢI LA EFORIE NORD\r\nPromenadă turistică din Eforie Nord, cuprinsă între hotelurile Acapulco şi Belona, va fi refăcuta complet, suprafaţa modernizată fiind de 1.600 m. Cel puțin așa afirmă reprezentanții administrației locale. Proiectul include extinderea aleii de promenadă, realizarea unor puncte de observaţie, lărgirea promenadei cu 1.70 m, pavare, montarea de bănci şi mobilier urban, realizarea unui sistem de supraveghere video şi înlocuirea sistemului de iluminat ornamental. Valoare investiţiei se ridică la 10 mil. RON şi este asigurată din fonduri europene. Lucrările de refacere ar putea fi finalizate până la începutul sezonului estival 2015.
\r\nBELLU DEVINE TURISTIC\r\nConsiliul General al Municipiului Bucuresti, CGMB, a aprobat în 2014 proiectul destinat punerii în valoare a Ansamblului Cimitirul Serban Vodă – Bellu. Valoarea Cimitirului Bellu este recunoscută şi pe plan internaţional, acesta fiind inclus, din 2010, în rândul Cimitirelor Semnificative din Europa, alături de Pere Lachaise din Paris, Cimitirul Vechi al Evreilor din Praga, Highgate din Londra şi Zentralfriedhof din Viena.

\r\nAMERICANII pun FĂGĂRAȘUL pe 2\r\nActiva publicația americană on-line The Huffington Post pare să aibă o feblețe durabilă pentru atracțiile turistice din țara noastră. Editorii săi au alcătuit încă un top al celor mai frumoase 10 castele din lume. În acesta pe locul 2, după Castelul Neuschwanstein, din Germania, a fost nominalizată Cetatea Fagarașului din Transilvania, într-o companie cât se poate de selectă. Ea este urmată de Castelele Durham (Marea Britanie), Blarney (Irlanda), Edinburgh (Scoția), Frontenac din Quebec (Canada), Cardiff (Țara Galilor), Castelul și Grădinile „de Villandry” din Franța, Castelul Heidelberg (Germania), respectiv Castelul Hearst din California (SUA).
\r\nSHENZHEN - PORȚI DESCHISE SPRE AFACERI\r\n\r\nBucureşti şi Shenzhen au devenit oraşe prietene în 2014, în urma Memorandumului de înțelegere semnat între România şi China. La ora actuală, Shenzhen este înfrăţit cu 63 de oraşe din întreaga lume. Patru companii majore din metropola chineză au investit în România, printre ele numărându-se Huawei şi ZTE.\r\n\r\nPentru a cunoaște mai bine oferta comercială și turistică a acestui oraș firma Innovation Travel a organizat, în parteneriat cu Primăria Municipiului Bucureşti şi cu Municipalitatea Shenzhen, un eveniment de prezentare a acestui oraș cu o populație de peste 10,5 milioane de locuitori. Printre invitaţi s-au numărat Dan Darabonţ, viceprimarul municipiului Bucureşti. Delegaţia chineză a fost condusă de Yao Weizhi, Directorul adjunct al Departamentului de Afaceri Externe al Shenzhen şi de Sally Lee, Directorul adjunct al Direcţiei de Promovare a oraşului Shenzhen.\r\n\r\nReprezentanții chinezi au subliniat că în 2013 volumul de import-export dintre oraşul aflat pe coasta de sud a Chinei şi România a ajuns la 290 de milioane de dolari. Shenzhen este unul dintre cele mai importante şi dinamice oraşe ale Chinei. Vârsta medie a locuitorilor este de 29 de ani! Metropola reprezintă cel mai inovator oraş al Chinei, cu 9.600 de aplicaţii patentate, 40% din totalul patentelor înregistrate în Republica Populara Chineză. Dacă în 1979 era doar un sat de pescari, azi el e conectat cu orice punct de pe glob prin 26 de linii aeriene şi 237 de linii internaţionale de navigaţie. Shenzhen va fi, în 2026, gazda Cupei Mondiale la Golf.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nBRANUL nu se poate desprinde de BRAM STOKER\r\n\r\nCotidianul DailyMail a arhivat încă un articol în care Castelul Bran din România este prezentat drept „casa lui Dracula”. Ilustrat bogat cu fotografii din interior și exterior el e recomandat pentru o ”incursiune fascinantă” pe urmele Contelui Dracula - ”una dintre cele mai întunecate figuri ale mitologiei europene”. Autorul subliniază și faptul că unii turiști spun că Dracula nu a existat. „Și în mod evident au dreptate. Cel mai faimos vampir din toate timpurile a fost creat de romancierul irlandez Bram Stoker în romanul său gotic Dracula, publicat în 1897”. Stoker, nu a vizitat niciodată România, deci nici Castelul Bran. Cu toate acestea, personajul istoric de la care a pornit Stoker în realizarea romanului, domnitorul Vlad al III-lea al Țării Românești - are o legătură cu cetatea, se precizează în articol. Se pare că omul care \"i-a vândut\" povestea este Armin Vambery, un evreu pasionat de călătorii și Imperiul Otoman, ce a fost consultantul lui Stoker privind cultura transilvăneană. Având în vedere pasiunea lui Vambery pentru turci, nu este de mirare că Vlad Țepeș apare ca un personaj negativ, deși în România era văzut ca un domnitor luminat și justițiar ce-i pedepsea aspru pe hoți și dușmani.\r\n\r\nCastelul Bran se află în proprietatea urmașilor dinastiei de Habsburg - Dominic, Maria Magdalena și Elizabeth.\r\n\r\nCALABRIA - o invitație fascinantă\r\nConsiglio Regionale della Calabria a organizat, la restaurantul Cucina Borghese din București, Simpozionul \"Descoperă Fascinanta Calabrie\". Evenimentul a avut ca scop promovarea unor oferte ale industriilor alimentară și a turismului (munte, mare, agroturism în Calabria). Organizatorii au prezentat invitaților produse tradiționale ce vor contribui la o mai bună cunoaștere a provinciei sud italiene. \r\nAcestea au fost susținute alocuțiunile lui Pasquale Anastasi - Directorul General al Departamentului \"Turism, Sport, Spectacol şi Politică\" al Regiunii Calabria;\r\n\r\nConsolata Loddo - Director al Departametului \"Promovare şi Organizare Turistică\" al Regiunii Calabria; Francesco Giovinazzo - Director Operativ al Aeroportului Reggio Calabria; Carlo Porcino - Preşedinte al Aeroportului Reggio Calabria. Evenimentul a fost moderat de actriţa Ramona Bădescu.\r\nAurul, Tismana și Gorjenii\r\n\r\nLângă mănăstirea Tismana se află în curs de amenajare muzeul Tezaurului. El este amplasat chiar în perimetrul peșterii unde în 1944 a fost ascunsă o mare parte din rezerva de aur a României. Denumită ”Neptun sau ”Tismana” operațiunea a fost derulată de Banca Națională în colaborare cu Guvernul, Armata, CFR-ul și Mitropolia Olteniei. Aici au fost depozitate în secret 242 de tone de aur din tezaurul BNR și alte 3 tone de aur din tezaurul Băncii Poloniei. Întreaga cantitate de aur a fost păstrată în peștera de lîngă mănăstirea Tismana, judetul Gorj, până în 1947. Proiectul de amenajare a muzeului a fost inițiat în 2007. Finanțarea lucrărilor este asigurată, în cea mai mare parte de către Banca Națională a României.

\r\nÎN 2015, CAMPIONAT EUROPEAN DE ACROBAȚIE LA DEVA\r\nÎn perioada 7 - 9 noiembrie 2014, a avut loc la Wroclaw - Polonia, şedinţa Comisiei pentru Acrobaţie (CIVA) din cadrul Federaţiei Aeronautice Internaţionale (FAI). Reprezentantul României a propus, iar membrii Comisiei au aprobat, ca ediția a IX-a a Campionatului European de Acrobaţie - clasa Advanced (9-th FAI European Advanced Aerobatic Championships - EAAC 2015) să fie găzduită de ţara noastră, ea urmând a fi organizată de Federaţia Aeronautică Română, împreună cu Aeroclubul României. Competiţia va avea loc în perioada 22 iulie - 1 august 2015, la Aeroclubul Teritorial Deva, unitate a Aeroclubului României.
\r\n”Este pentru prima dată când un concurs de acrobaţie aeriană de o asemenea anvergură va fi organizat în România. Merită să reamintesc că, în cursul acestui an, echipa noastră de acrobaţie aeriană s-a clasat pe locul V, după Franţa, Rusia, Ucraina şi SUA şi înaintea unor ţări precum Africa de Sud, Germania, Belgia, Polonia sau Norvegia, la cea de-a XI-a ediţie a Campionatului Mondial de Acrobaţie - clasa Advanced care a avut loc în perioada 7 - 16 august în Slovacia” - ne-a declarat George Rotaru, directorul general al Aeroclublului României.\r\n\r\n \r\nATENȚIE CÎND PLECAȚI SPRE TURCIA \r\nInstituțiile aeroporturare și agențiile de turism semnalează că începând cu data de 1 Ianuarie 2015, s-au modificat condițiile de călătorie ale pasagerilor în Turcia. De aceea înainte de emiterea biletului agenții de turism trebuie să verifice condițiile din TIMATIC si să confirme pasagerilor valabilitatea documentelor de călătorie.
\r\nPasagerii care au pașapoartele valabile mai puțin de 60 de zile nu vor fi admiși în Turcia și compania transportatoare va plăti amenzi, iar pasagerii cu pașapoarte valabile între 60 de zile și 150 de zile, dacă vor fi acceptați, vor plăti amendă.\r\nMAI MULTĂ AVENTURĂ ÎN CARPAŢI\r\nBalu Parc s-a deschis la marginea staţiunii Harghita-Băi. „Parcul de aventuri, construit într-o ambianţă de o frumuseţe rară pe o suprafaţă de 1,5 hectare, are 150 de platforme montate pe copaci, 135 elemente de joc şi 11 trasee cu grade diferite de dificultate atât pentru adulţi cât şi pentru copii” – spune Constantin Chiroşca de la departamentul de merketing. Particularitatea principală a parcului este Tiroliana, fiind “cel mai lung traseu de alunecare din Europa Centrală, cu o lungime de 985 m.” Parcul are o cafenea şi un restaurant, magazin de suveniruri, iar cei ce vor să stea peste noapte pot alege Cabana Balu din apropiere.
\r\n@ PROMOVAREA TURISMULUI MONAHAL ÎN OLTENIA este ceea ce îşi doreşte Consiliul Judeţean Vâlcea printr-un proiect finanţat din fonduri europene, cu o valoare de 220.000 EUR. În judeţul Vâlcea există nu mai puţin de 52 de lăcaşe de cult de patrimoniu, însă cele mai intens promovate vor fi mănăstirile din sud, în numar de 16, printre care: Cozia, Dintr-un Lemn, Hurezi Frăsinei şi Stănişoara.
\r\nTURISMUL PE BICICLETĂ\r\nE un segment ce a fost luat în serios de către specialiștii Autorității naționale pentru Turism (ANT). Ei propun realizarea unei Reţele Naţionale de Trasee Cicloturistice Marcate din România (RNTCMR). Proiectarea, construcţia şi întreţinerea lor va fi finanţată din fonduri publice sau private. Ciclotraseele vor fi clasificate după criteriul extensiei geografice în trei ranguri: naţionale, regionale şi locale.
\r\nDupă criteriul tipului de cale de comunicaţie utilizată vor fi clasificate în două tipuri - de şosea şi de munte, iar după nivelul de dificultate, în patru grade - lejer, mediu, dificil şi expert. Proiectarea, marcarea, monitorizarea şi întreţinerea ciclotraseelor se finanţează din bugetele locale ale judeţelor, precum şi din alte fonduri publice sau private. Implementarea proiectului va fi asigurată de comisii judeţene de ciclotrasee ce vor activa pe lângă consiliile judeţene.\r\n\r\n \r\nS-A DESCHIS AVENTURA PARC\r\n\r\nComplextul de agrement se află în localitatea Drăguş, judeţul Braşov. Parcul este amplasat lângă pârtia de ski din localitate, are o suprafaţă de 1,1 hectare şi dispune de: 3 trasee de dificultate progresivă, traseu tiroliene, un panou de escaladă cu trei linii principale, tir cu arcul, armă şi pistol, multe alte jocuri adresate copiiilor de diferite vârste, precum şi trasee de minigolf. Amenajarea parcului a costat 40.000 EUR iar investiţia aparţine societaţii Avemaventura SRL.
NOUTĂŢI LA EFORIE NORD\r\nPromenadă turistică din Eforie Nord, cuprinsă între hotelurile Acapulco şi Belona, va fi refăcuta complet, suprafaţa modernizată fiind de 1.600 m. Cel puțin așa afirmă reprezentanții administrației locale. Proiectul include extinderea aleii de promenadă, realizarea unor puncte de observaţie, lărgirea promenadei cu 1.70 m, pavare, montarea de bănci şi mobilier urban, realizarea unui sistem de supraveghere video şi înlocuirea sistemului de iluminat ornamental. Valoare investiţiei se ridică la 10 mil. RON şi este asigurată din fonduri europene. Lucrările de refacere ar putea fi finalizate până la începutul sezonului estival 2015.
\r\nBELLU DEVINE TURISTIC\r\nConsiliul General al Municipiului Bucuresti, CGMB, a aprobat în 2014 proiectul destinat punerii în valoare a Ansamblului Cimitirul Serban Vodă – Bellu. Valoarea Cimitirului Bellu este recunoscută şi pe plan internaţional, acesta fiind inclus, din 2010, în rândul Cimitirelor Semnificative din Europa, alături de Pere Lachaise din Paris, Cimitirul Vechi al Evreilor din Praga, Highgate din Londra şi Zentralfriedhof din Viena. Proiectul \"Repertoriul patrimoniului funerar - Ansamblul Cimitirul Serban Voda - Bellu\" are ca scop cercetarea patrimoniului funerar din cadrul ansamblului, pentru realizarea unei baze de date cu utilizari multiple. Finanţarea, nerambursabilă, vine din Granturi ale Guvernului Norvegian.

De aceea înainte de emiterea biletului agenții de turism trebuie să verifice condițiile din TIMATIC si să confirme pasagerilor valabilitatea documentelor de călătorie.\r\n\r\nPasagerii care au pașapoartele valabile mai puțin de 60 de zile nu vor fi admiși în Turcia și compania transportatoare va plăti amenzi, iar pasagerii cu pașapoarte valabile între 60 de zile și 150 de zile, dacă vor fi acceptați, vor plăti amendă.

\r\nMAI MULTĂ AVENTURĂ ÎN CARPAŢI\r\nBalu Parc s-a deschis la marginea staţiunii Harghita-Băi. „Parcul de aventuri, construit într-o ambianţă de o frumuseţe rară pe o suprafaţă de 1,5 hectare, are 150 de platforme montate pe copaci, 135 elemente de joc şi 11 trasee cu grade diferite de dificultate atât pentru adulţi cât şi pentru copii” – spune Constantin Chiroşca de la departamentul de merketing. Particularitatea principală a parcului este Tiroliana, fiind “cel mai lung traseu de alunecare din Europa Centrală, cu o lungime de 985 m.” Parcul are o cafenea şi un restaurant, magazin de suveniruri, iar cei ce vor să stea peste noapte pot alege Cabana Balu din apropiere.
\r\n\r\n@ PROMOVAREA TURISMULUI MONAHAL ÎN OLTENIA este ceea ce îşi doreşte Consiliul Judeţean Vâlcea printr-un proiect finanţat din fonduri europene, cu o valoare de 220.000 EUR. În judeţul Vâlcea există nu mai puţin de 52 de lăcaşe de cult de patrimoniu, însă cele mai intens promovate vor fi mănăstirile din sud, în numar de 16, printre care: Cozia, Dintr-un Lemn, Hurezi Frăsinei şi Stănişoara.
\r\nTURISMUL PE BICICLETĂ\r\nE un segment ce a fost luat în serios de către specialiștii Autorității naționale pentru Turism (ANT). Ei propun realizarea unei Reţele Naţionale de Trasee Cicloturistice Marcate din România (RNTCMR). Proiectarea, construcţia şi întreţinerea lor va fi finanţată din fonduri publice sau private. Ciclotraseele vor fi clasificate după criteriul extensiei geografice în trei ranguri: naţionale, regionale şi locale.\r\n\r\nDupă criteriul tipului de cale de comunicaţie utilizată vor fi clasificate în două tipuri - de şosea şi de munte, iar după nivelul de dificultate, în patru grade - lejer, mediu, dificil şi expert. Proiectarea, marcarea, monitorizarea şi întreţinerea ciclotraseelor se finanţează din bugetele locale ale judeţelor, precum şi din alte fonduri publice sau private. Implementarea proiectului va fi asigurată de comisii judeţene de ciclotrasee ce vor activa pe lângă consiliile judeţene.
\r\n \r\nS-A DESCHIS AVENTURA PARC\r\n\r\nComplextul de agrement se află în localitatea Drăguş, judeţul Braşov. Parcul este amplasat lângă pârtia de ski din localitate, are o suprafaţă de 1,1 hectare şi dispune de: 3 trasee de dificultate progresivă, traseu tiroliene, un panou de escaladă cu trei linii principale, tir cu arcul, armă şi pistol, multe alte jocuri adresate copiiilor de diferite vârste, precum şi trasee de minigolf. Amenajarea parcului a costat 40.000 EUR iar investiţia aparţine societaţii Avemaventura SRL.
NOUTĂŢI LA EFORIE NORD\r\nPromenadă turistică din Eforie Nord, cuprinsă între hotelurile Acapulco şi Belona, va fi refăcuta complet, suprafaţa modernizată fiind de 1.600 m. Cel puțin așa afirmă reprezentanții administrației locale. Proiectul include extinderea aleii de promenadă, realizarea unor puncte de observaţie, lărgirea promenadei cu 1.70 m, pavare, montarea de bănci şi mobilier urban, realizarea unui sistem de supraveghere video şi înlocuirea sistemului de iluminat ornamental. Valoare investiţiei se ridică la 10 mil. RON şi este asigurată din fonduri europene. Lucrările de refacere ar putea fi finalizate până la începutul sezonului estival 2015.
\r\nBELLU DEVINE TURISTIC\r\nConsiliul General al Municipiului Bucuresti, CGMB, a aprobat în 2014 proiectul destinat punerii în valoare a Ansamblului Cimitirul Serban Vodă – Bellu. Valoarea Cimitirului Bellu este recunoscută şi pe plan internaţional, acesta fiind inclus, din 2010, în rândul Cimitirelor Semnificative din Europa, alături de Pere Lachaise din Paris, Cimitirul Vechi al Evreilor din Praga, Highgate din Londra şi Zentralfriedhof din Viena. Proiectul \"Repertoriul patrimoniului funerar - Ansamblul Cimitirul Serban Voda - Bellu\" are ca scop cercetarea patrimoniului funerar din cadrul ansamblului, pentru realizarea unei baze de date cu utilizari multiple. Finanţarea, nerambursabilă, vine din Granturi ale Guvernului Norvegian.

\r\n\r\nGrupul Accor estimează pentru primul an de funcționare un grad de ocupare de minim 50%. Conform declarațiilor făcute la inaugurare investitorii francezi - care operează hotelul Mercure de la București pe baza unui contract de management -, intenționează să extindă mai departe în România brandul Mercure care se bucură de o excelentă notorietate. Conducerea hotelului Mercure este asigurată de românca Alina Fugaciu, care lucrează de peste 11 ani în cadrul grupului Accor, în hoteluri precum Pullman, Novotel si MGallery. De altfel ea a revenit la București de la Hotelul MGallery din Praga din poziția de Director Operațional. ”Mercure este un brand pe care mi l-am dorit demult în România, deoarece conceptul este foarte apropiat de client, un brand adaptabil destinațiilor în care pătrunde. Aceasta este de fapt filosofia brandului. Brandul oferă un standard de calitate recunoscut pe care clienții se pot baza în orice hotel Mercure din lume, dar fiecare locație în parte oferă o experiență particulară, inspirată din moștenirea culturală a acelei destinații” - subliniază Alina Fugaciu.\r\n![\"Mercure](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Mercure-receptie.jpg\")
\r\n\r\n\r\nInvestiția în construcția hotelului s-a ridicat la circa 10 milioane de euro și a fost derulată prin firma Dentotal Investment, parte din Grupul Dentotal, specializat în comercializarea de echipamente și materiale dentare. Anghel Dogariu a precizat că suportul financiar a fost asigurat în proporție de 70% printr-un credit de la Garanti Bank, care a făcut cea mai flexibilă și avantajoasă ofertă. ”De unde am început?

Şi legenda se transformă în destinaţie turistică de interes internaţional vorbim, evident, despre turism bine făcut! Punerea în valoare a moştenirii istorice a celui de al XVI-lea preşedinte american, Abraham Lincoln, este, din perspectivă turistică, un program fascinant, obligatoriu de parcurs pentru cei ce ajung la Chicago.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"3523,3524,3525,3526,3527,3528,3529,3530,3531,3532\"]\r\n\r\nNu este „râu, ram, drum” în Statul Illinois care să nu cotizeze cu ceva la amplificarea poveştii părintelui fondator al Americii moderne. Ieşim din Chicago luând-o pe celebra Route 66 până la întâlnirea cu Abraham Lincoln Route. Aşa începe povestea: pe la 1817 părinţii lui Abraham se mută din Kentuky în Indiana iar la 1830 regăsim familia în statul Illinois. Tânărul Abraham Lincoln se aşează în New Salem, un sat de meşteşugari, iar viaţa lui se contopeşte cu cea a comunităţii.\r\n\r\nAutodidact, cu doar şase luni de şcoală propriu-zisă, el devine un personaj important. Aflăm toate acestea din povestea spusă de New Salem Historic Site, un proiect cultural de anvergură, care propune vizitatorilor un spaţiu interactiv: un muzeu al satului, reconstruit printr-o Fundaţie în 1917, un punct de informare turistică, camping, teatru, un muzeu al Ligii Lincoln şi evident un restaurant şi un magazin. Plimbarea prin satul New Salem te afundă în poveşti cu bunici la vatră, pantofarul satului, crâşmarul sau negustorul aflat în casa originală Onstot Cooper Shop redată muzeului în 1922. Stând de vorbă cu „pantofarul” am aflat că în epocă americanii aveau două picioare stângi (sau drepte), căci pantofii se făceau cu un calapod unic pentru ambele picioare. În plus ei se croiau mai mari decât talpa cumpărătorului din motive economice: să ţină mai mult.\r\n\r\nCanalul, măgăruşii şi prăjitura\r\nCei şase ani petrecuţi de Lincoln în New Salem, au făcut tranziţia de la băiatul bun la toate (constructor de bărci, tâmplar, fierar sau luntraş) la bărbatul matur, angajat în avocatură şi politică. În 1832 îl găsim implicat în politica timpului, ca susţinător înfocat al construirii canalului Illinois-Michigan (I&M Canal) dat în funcţiune în 1848. Povestea vibrantă a acelor timpuri este dominanta Muzeului de Istorie din Joliet unde există o replică a canalului. Trecerea vizitatorilor printre pereţii în mărime naturală ai I&M este copleşitoare: se văd muncitorii care sapă la canal, inginerii care se ocupă de măsurători, oamenii vremii urmând rutina zilnică. După experienţa muzeală din Joliet, dorinţa de a vedea pe viu, ne poartă spre La Salle, locul de unde plecau vapoarele spre Chicago, trase de pe mal de măgăruşi.\r\n\r\nCa fapt divers, cercetătorii americani au stabilit că, în cei 23 de ani petrecuţi ca avocat, Lincoln a străbătut 450 de mile pe apele canalului, alergând de la un client la altul. Călătoria contemporană cu o ambarcaţiune tractată de măgari este o încântare. Ești măgulit de faptul că însoţitorul tău este chiar onorabila doamnă Mary Ann Todd Lincoln (ghidul agenţiei care poartă hainele de epocă ale soţiei lui Abraham Lincoln).\r\n\r\nProgramul turistic este garnisit cu informaţii despre modul în care se călătorea pe la 1848, ce se întâmpla pe vas, ce se mânca, şi mai ales poveşti despre imigranţii, majoritatea irlandezi, care au muncit la canal. Lecţia de istorie durează o oră, cât voiajul în sine, iar măgăruşii, mai mult de atmosferă, îşi fac veseli datoria, căci nava are motor acum. Doamna „Mary” nu uită să ne transmită reţeta prăjiturii preferate a lui Lincoln, înainte de a se retrage discretă în cotidian. Aflăm că circuitul are mare succes la publicul tânăr, că ea este o bunică fericită şi că nepoţelul ei este adoptat din România. Este momentul să fim şi mai bucuroşi şi să-i oferim o insignă cu stema şi drapelul românesc ca amintire.\r\n\r\n\r\nUrmează stația Springfield\r\nIată-ne în drum spre Springfield, capitala de drept a statului Illinois, unde începe de fapt cariera de avocat şi om politic a lui Lincoln în 1834. După 8 ani se căsătoreşte cu Miss Mary Todd şi se stabilesc în reşedinţa devenită acum muzeu. Cele mai importante clădiri ale oraşului par impregnate în aerul lor majestuos, de prezenţa şi vorbele lui. Și clădirea Old State Capitol păstrează ecoul discursurilor şi pledoariilor ţinute de Lincoln, biroul şi biblioteca sa. Reşedinţa familiei este conservată precum în epocă şi evocă un cămin fericit, cu patru copii (unul singur a trăit până în secolul XX), cu preocupările, grijile şi viaţa lui.\r\n\r\nDespre Springfield celebrul om de stat spunea: „Acestui loc şi bunătăţii oamenilor săi le datorez totul!” Cei 17 ani petrecuţi de Lincoln în Springfield au constituit fundamentul filosofiei sale politice şi, deşi a pierdut în 1858 alegerile pentru Senatul SUA în faţa rivalului său Stephen Douglas, ecoul discursurilor sale l-a propulsat în conştiinţa publică. În 1861 a devenit, nu senator, ci preşedinte ales al SUA, susţinut de Partidul Republican, pe care îl fondase în 1856. Câştigă al doilea mandat prezidenţial la trei ani după primul.

Dacă timpul ne-ar fi permis, am fi optat pentru concertul dat aici în memoria sopranei de culoare, Marian Anderson. În 1939, fiindu-i intezis să cânte într-o sală cu spectatori albi, ea a decis să ţină reprezentaţia în aer liber, în faţa Memorialului Lincoln, bucurându-se de prezenţa a 100.000 de spectatori.\r\n\r\nRăsunetul internaţional al concertului a temperat măsurile rasiste „încă” ale autorităţilor americane.

Şi legenda se transformă în destinaţie turistică de interes internaţional vorbim, evident, despre turism bine făcut! Punerea în valoare a moştenirii istorice a celui de al XVI-lea preşedinte american, Abraham Lincoln, este, din perspectivă turistică, un program fascinant, obligatoriu de parcurs pentru cei ce ajung la Chicago.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"3523,3524,3525,3526,3527,3528,3529,3530,3531,3532\"]\r\n\r\nNu este „râu, ram, drum” în Statul Illinois care să nu cotizeze cu ceva la amplificarea poveştii părintelui fondator al Americii moderne. Ieşim din Chicago luând-o pe celebra Route 66 până la întâlnirea cu Abraham Lincoln Route. Aşa începe povestea: pe la 1817 părinţii lui Abraham se mută din Kentuky în Indiana iar la 1830 regăsim familia în statul Illinois. Tânărul Abraham Lincoln se aşează în New Salem, un sat de meşteşugari, iar viaţa lui se contopeşte cu cea a comunităţii.\r\n\r\nAutodidact, cu doar şase luni de şcoală propriu-zisă, el devine un personaj important. Aflăm toate acestea din povestea spusă de New Salem Historic Site, un proiect cultural de anvergură, care propune vizitatorilor un spaţiu interactiv: un muzeu al satului, reconstruit printr-o Fundaţie în 1917, un punct de informare turistică, camping, teatru, un muzeu al Ligii Lincoln şi evident un restaurant şi un magazin. Plimbarea prin satul New Salem te afundă în poveşti cu bunici la vatră, pantofarul satului, crâşmarul sau negustorul aflat în casa originală Onstot Cooper Shop redată muzeului în 1922. Stând de vorbă cu „pantofarul” am aflat că în epocă americanii aveau două picioare stângi (sau drepte), căci pantofii se făceau cu un calapod unic pentru ambele picioare. În plus ei se croiau mai mari decât talpa cumpărătorului din motive economice: să ţină mai mult.\r\n\r\n\r\nCanalul, măgăruşii şi prăjitura\r\nCei şase ani petrecuţi de Lincoln în New Salem, au făcut tranziţia de la băiatul bun la toate (constructor de bărci, tâmplar, fierar sau luntraş) la bărbatul matur, angajat în avocatură şi politică. În 1832 îl găsim implicat în politica timpului, ca susţinător înfocat al construirii canalului Illinois-Michigan (I&M Canal) dat în funcţiune în 1848. Povestea vibrantă a acelor timpuri este dominanta Muzeului de Istorie din Joliet unde există o replică a canalului. Trecerea vizitatorilor printre pereţii în mărime naturală ai I&M este copleşitoare: se văd muncitorii care sapă la canal, inginerii care se ocupă de măsurători, oamenii vremii urmând rutina zilnică. După experienţa muzeală din Joliet, dorinţa de a vedea pe viu, ne poartă spre La Salle, locul de unde plecau vapoarele spre Chicago, trase de pe mal de măgăruşi.\r\n\r\n\r\nCa fapt divers, cercetătorii americani au stabilit că, în cei 23 de ani petrecuţi ca avocat, Lincoln a străbătut 450 de mile pe apele canalului, alergând de la un client la altul. Călătoria contemporană cu o ambarcaţiune tractată de măgari este o încântare. Ești măgulit de faptul că însoţitorul tău este chiar onorabila doamnă Mary Ann Todd Lincoln (ghidul agenţiei care poartă hainele de epocă ale soţiei lui Abraham Lincoln).\r\n\r\nProgramul turistic este garnisit cu informaţii despre modul în care se călătorea pe la 1848, ce se întâmpla pe vas, ce se mânca, şi mai ales poveşti despre imigranţii, majoritatea irlandezi, care au muncit la canal. Lecţia de istorie durează o oră, cât voiajul în sine, iar măgăruşii, mai mult de atmosferă, îşi fac veseli datoria, căci nava are motor acum. Doamna „Mary” nu uită să ne transmită reţeta prăjiturii preferate a lui Lincoln, înainte de a se retrage discretă în cotidian. Aflăm că circuitul are mare succes la publicul tânăr, că ea este o bunică fericită şi că nepoţelul ei este adoptat din România. Este momentul să fim şi mai bucuroşi şi să-i oferim o insignă cu stema şi drapelul românesc ca amintire.\r\n\r\n\r\nUrmează stația Springfield\r\nIată-ne în drum spre Springfield, capitala de drept a statului Illinois, unde începe de fapt cariera de avocat şi om politic a lui Lincoln în 1834. După 8 ani se căsătoreşte cu Miss Mary Todd şi se stabilesc în reşedinţa devenită acum muzeu. Cele mai importante clădiri ale oraşului par impregnate în aerul lor majestuos, de prezenţa şi vorbele lui. Și clădirea Old State Capitol păstrează ecoul discursurilor şi pledoariilor ţinute de Lincoln, biroul şi biblioteca sa. Reşedinţa familiei este conservată precum în epocă şi evocă un cămin fericit, cu patru copii (unul singur a trăit până în secolul XX), cu preocupările, grijile şi viaţa lui.\r\n\r\nDespre Springfield celebrul om de stat spunea: „Acestui loc şi bunătăţii oamenilor săi le datorez totul!” Cei 17 ani petrecuţi de Lincoln în Springfield au constituit fundamentul filosofiei sale politice şi, deşi a pierdut în 1858 alegerile pentru Senatul SUA în faţa rivalului său Stephen Douglas, ecoul discursurilor sale l-a propulsat în conştiinţa publică. În 1861 a devenit, nu senator, ci preşedinte ales al SUA, susţinut de Partidul Republican, pe care îl fondase în 1856. Câştigă al doilea mandat prezidenţial la trei ani după primul. Lincoln devine legendă în 1865, într-o seară de aprilie, asasinat fiind în loja sa de la Teatrul Ford...

Cum, au trecut 135 de ani de afaceri cu guler alb, aici la Caru’ cu Bere? Se pare că da! Și la un asemenea eveniment ar fi fost și păcat să nu se răscolească istoria și să se pună la cale mai multe evenimente, printre care și întâlniri cu presa. Mai ales că ing. Nicolae Mircea, coproprietarul localului, este încă verde și le are cu istoria familiei cum nimeni altul. ”Acum 135 de ani, în 1879, pe Calea Victoriei nr. 2, la intersecţia cu strada Franceză, peste drum de Piaţa Constantin-Vodă exista Berăria „La Caru’ cu Bere”, înfiinţată de ardeleanul Ion Căbășanu (1846-1934 – voluntar în armata română – 1877).\r\n\r\nAici erau angajaţi doi nepoţi ai acestuia, Ion Mircea (1860-1998) şi Gheorghe Mircea (1865-1943), toţi trei veniţi în Bucureşti din comuna transilvăneană Cața (zona Rupea-Sighișoara), care aparţinea pe atunci Imperiului Austro-Ungar. După 20 de ani, în 1899 Nicolae şi Victor Mircea, fraţii lui Ion Mircea, invitau cunoscătorii prin Avis-ul din ziarul Adevărul în hala nou construită din Str. Stavropoleos, nr. 5, la o bere specială. Anunțul suna așa ”Avis cunoscătorilor de bere. Fabrica de bere Bragadiru, fierbind o bere speciale, ce poate rivaliza cu cea mai bună bere din Munchen, am luat - spre satisfacerea onor noastre clientele - asupră-ne desfacerea ei”. Astfel a început povestea Caru’ cu bere, unde forfota, voia bună şi bucatele delicioase domnesc de mai bine de un secol și un sfert”.\r\n\r\n\r\n1 milion de euro în circuit\r\nSigur, ca în orice istorie, pe aici nu au curs numai... bere și ciolane. În 1949 berăria a fost rechiziționată și preluată fără forme legale de către Statul Român. După exact 50 de ani, revendicată și cîștigată în instanță, ea revine înapoi urmașilor de drept. ”Cât timp a durat procesul de retrocedare, Caru’ cu bere a fost un fel de mausoleu în care intrai, te închinai, te uitai şi ieşeai bombănind: frumoasă arhitectura, dar ca servicii, nu recomandăm. În primăvara lui 2006 a început renovarea şi până în toamnă restaurantul a fost repus în circuit. Reţeta de succes a lanțului City Grill, care a investit la acea vreme în restaurarea și echiparea cu tehnologii moderne a localului peste 1 milion de euro, asociată cu o echipă tânără și dinamică, a (re)umplut mesele.\r\n\r\nChiar dacă nea Mircea Niculae are o memorie bună, ca să fim sinceri cu cititorii noștri, trebuie să spunem că în ceea ce privește atmosfera de la ” Caru’ cu Bere”, a fost cenușie, doar prin deceniul 1980-’90, în restul vremii comuniste localul a fost fieful grupurilor de turiști străini, veniți în România, dar și locul unde se organizau evenimente, expoziții de gastronomie, patiserie, cofetărie. Așa cum se pricepeau pe acea vreme specialiștii noștri. Despre ele pot vorbi și Ion Botez ori Ioan Argeșeanu, doi dintre lucrătorii ce au dat strălucire serviciilor localului.\r\n\r\n3.000 de ciolane pe lună \r\nDragoş Petrescu, președintele grupului City Grill reamintește: „De 8 ani am reînviat spiritul Caru’ cu Bere. Am încercat să îi redăm strălucirea de ”loc emblematic al Bucureșcilor”. Suntem pe cale să reușim. Pentru că în prezent suntem considerați drept una dintre cele mai importante atracţii ale Centrului Vechi şi destinaţia principală pe care bucureştenii o aleg atunci când îşi invită prietenii din străinătate la masă, după cum reiese din ultimul studiu realizat de noi. La Caru’ cu Bere vine tot românul, măcar o dată: vârstnici - nostalgici ai vremurilor de studenţie, familii, pensionari pentru ofertele dedicate lor, studenţii în pauza dintre cursuri, şcolari care vin să asculte povestea Carului, tineri care înainte să meargă în club servesc masa. Aproximativ 35% din clienţii Carului sunt străini, veniţi organizat prin agenţiile de turism, dar şi individual.\r\n\r\nReţeta noastră este simplă: am înţeles că oamenii vor mâncare autohtonă bună şi deosebită, la preţuri decente, toate acestea într-o atmosferă veselă şi destinsă. Zilnic ne trec pragul 2.500 de clienți. Lunar se consumă circa 3.000 de ciolane. Ideea a fost și rămâne să dăm strălucire trecutului și nu să inventăm ceva nou”. Și acum Caru’ cu Bere îşi aşteaptă oaspeţii cu numeroase surprize şi cel mai apreciat preparat gustat de fiecare muşteriu: renumitul ciolan românesc de porc împreună cu varză călită, mămăliguţă, hrean şi ardei iute, alături de o bere făcută după o reţetă unică, originală din 1879.\r\n\r\nPovestea merge mai departe\r\nDincolo de istorie, gastronomie și arhitectură interioară, clădirea are o parte nevăzută, cunoscută doar de către apropiații familiei, arhitecți și restauratori. Arhitectul Constantin Velescu declara, la întâlnirea cu presa”Proprietarii doresc să renoveze întreaga clădire, iar efortul implică marea responsabilitate de a nu altera arhitectura originală lăsată de înaintași. Se dorește ca după restaurarea completă Berăria să devină și un Așezământ cultural. ”Construcţia actualei berării, care s-a dorit a fi un templu al berii, a fost realizată pe vremea când primarul Capitalei era Barbu Delavrancea. Proiectul i-a aparținut arhitectului de origine poloneză Ziegfried Kofzsinsky, care a participat la edificarea mai multor obiective importante din România, inclusiv castelul Peleş.\r\n\r\nInteriorul, ce a fost completat în anii ‘24 – ‘28 cu partea din faţă, poartă amprenta stilului neogotic de la elementele decorative, lambriuri, vitralii, picturi murale, candelabre până la elementele de feronerie. Crama a fost deschisă în anul 1930 ca salon de vânătoare şi, respectiv, cramă de vinuri. Aici se bea pe vremuri vinul la carafă, vestita baterie de vin.

Cum, au trecut 135 de ani de afaceri cu guler alb, aici la Caru’ cu Bere? Se pare că da! Și la un asemenea eveniment ar fi fost și păcat să nu se răscolească istoria și să se pună la cale mai multe evenimente, printre care și întâlniri cu presa. Mai ales că ing. Nicolae Mircea, coproprietarul localului, este încă verde și le are cu istoria familiei cum nimeni altul. ”Acum 135 de ani, în 1879, pe Calea Victoriei nr. 2, la intersecţia cu strada Franceză, peste drum de Piaţa Constantin-Vodă exista Berăria „La Caru’ cu Bere”, înfiinţată de ardeleanul Ion Căbășanu (1846-1934 – voluntar în armata română – 1877).\r\n\r\nAici erau angajaţi doi nepoţi ai acestuia, Ion Mircea (1860-1998) şi Gheorghe Mircea (1865-1943), toţi trei veniţi în Bucureşti din comuna transilvăneană Cața (zona Rupea-Sighișoara), care aparţinea pe atunci Imperiului Austro-Ungar. După 20 de ani, în 1899 Nicolae şi Victor Mircea, fraţii lui Ion Mircea, invitau cunoscătorii prin Avis-ul din ziarul Adevărul în hala nou construită din Str. Stavropoleos, nr. 5, la o bere specială. Anunțul suna așa ”Avis cunoscătorilor de bere. Fabrica de bere Bragadiru, fierbind o bere speciale, ce poate rivaliza cu cea mai bună bere din Munchen, am luat - spre satisfacerea onor noastre clientele - asupră-ne desfacerea ei”. Astfel a început povestea Caru’ cu bere, unde forfota, voia bună şi bucatele delicioase domnesc de mai bine de un secol și un sfert”.\r\n\r\n\r\n1 milion de euro în circuit\r\nSigur, ca în orice istorie, pe aici nu au curs numai... bere și ciolane. În 1949 berăria a fost rechiziționată și preluată fără forme legale de către Statul Român. După exact 50 de ani, revendicată și cîștigată în instanță, ea revine înapoi urmașilor de drept. ”Cât timp a durat procesul de retrocedare, Caru’ cu bere a fost un fel de mausoleu în care intrai, te închinai, te uitai şi ieşeai bombănind: frumoasă arhitectura, dar ca servicii, nu recomandăm. În primăvara lui 2006 a început renovarea şi până în toamnă restaurantul a fost repus în circuit. Reţeta de succes a lanțului City Grill, care a investit la acea vreme în restaurarea și echiparea cu tehnologii moderne a localului peste 1 milion de euro, asociată cu o echipă tânără și dinamică, a (re)umplut mesele.\r\n\r\nChiar dacă nea Mircea Niculae are o memorie bună, ca să fim sinceri cu cititorii noștri, trebuie să spunem că în ceea ce privește atmosfera de la ” Caru’ cu Bere”, a fost cenușie, doar prin deceniul 1980-’90, în restul vremii comuniste localul a fost fieful grupurilor de turiști străini, veniți în România, dar și locul unde se organizau evenimente, expoziții de gastronomie, patiserie, cofetărie. Așa cum se pricepeau pe acea vreme specialiștii noștri. Despre ele pot vorbi și Ion Botez ori Ioan Argeșeanu, doi dintre lucrătorii ce au dat strălucire serviciilor localului.\r\n\r\n3.000 de ciolane pe lună \r\nDragoş Petrescu, președintele grupului City Grill reamintește: „De 8 ani am reînviat spiritul Caru’ cu Bere. Am încercat să îi redăm strălucirea de ”loc emblematic al Bucureșcilor”. Suntem pe cale să reușim. Pentru că în prezent suntem considerați drept una dintre cele mai importante atracţii ale Centrului Vechi şi destinaţia principală pe care bucureştenii o aleg atunci când îşi invită prietenii din străinătate la masă, după cum reiese din ultimul studiu realizat de noi. La Caru’ cu Bere vine tot românul, măcar o dată: vârstnici - nostalgici ai vremurilor de studenţie, familii, pensionari pentru ofertele dedicate lor, studenţii în pauza dintre cursuri, şcolari care vin să asculte povestea Carului, tineri care înainte să meargă în club servesc masa. Aproximativ 35% din clienţii Carului sunt străini, veniţi organizat prin agenţiile de turism, dar şi individual.\r\n\r\nReţeta noastră este simplă: am înţeles că oamenii vor mâncare autohtonă bună şi deosebită, la preţuri decente, toate acestea într-o atmosferă veselă şi destinsă. Zilnic ne trec pragul 2.500 de clienți. Lunar se consumă circa 3.000 de ciolane. Ideea a fost și rămâne să dăm strălucire trecutului și nu să inventăm ceva nou”. Și acum Caru’ cu Bere îşi aşteaptă oaspeţii cu numeroase surprize şi cel mai apreciat preparat gustat de fiecare muşteriu: renumitul ciolan românesc de porc împreună cu varză călită, mămăliguţă, hrean şi ardei iute, alături de o bere făcută după o reţetă unică, originală din 1879.\r\n\r\nPovestea merge mai departe\r\nDincolo de istorie, gastronomie și arhitectură interioară, clădirea are o parte nevăzută, cunoscută doar de către apropiații familiei, arhitecți și restauratori. Arhitectul Constantin Velescu declara, la întâlnirea cu presa”Proprietarii doresc să renoveze întreaga clădire, iar efortul implică marea responsabilitate de a nu altera arhitectura originală lăsată de înaintași. Se dorește ca după restaurarea completă Berăria să devină și un Așezământ cultural. ”Construcţia actualei berării, care s-a dorit a fi un templu al berii, a fost realizată pe vremea când primarul Capitalei era Barbu Delavrancea. Proiectul i-a aparținut arhitectului de origine poloneză Ziegfried Kofzsinsky, care a participat la edificarea mai multor obiective importante din România, inclusiv castelul Peleş.\r\n\r\nInteriorul, ce a fost completat în anii ‘24 – ‘28 cu partea din faţă, poartă amprenta stilului neogotic de la elementele decorative, lambriuri, vitralii, picturi murale, candelabre până la elementele de feronerie. Crama a fost deschisă în anul 1930 ca salon de vânătoare şi, respectiv, cramă de vinuri. Aici se bea pe vremuri vinul la carafă, vestita baterie de vin. Spaţiul este acum un adevărat muzeu ce găzduieşte halbe de bere din perioade diferite de timp” - precizează Velescu.\r\n\r\nLucrările de restaurare, demarate pentru refacerea frumoasei faţade, dar şi a interioarelor de la nivelurile superioare sunt ample. Ele se vor desfășura în două etape pe parcursul a aproximativ trei ani.

\r\n\r\n\r\nÎn urmă cu un deceniu, în luna decembrie, Blue Air efectua primele zboruri low cost către orașele Timișoara (cursă internă) și Lyon (cursă internațională).\r\n\r\nDe atunci până azi aeronavele companiei românești au străbătut 150.415.384 kilometri, ceea ce echivalează cu ocolul Pământului de 3.753 de ori. În toată această perioadă echipajele au efectuat peste 188.000 de ore de zbor, transportând peste 11.500.000 de pasageri adică mai mult de jumătate, ca echivalent, din populația României.\r\n\r\nPrin taxele plătite la bugetul de stat Blue Air a contribuit cu suma de 133.580.115 de lei, ceea ce echivalează cu 148.422 de salarii minime pe economie (referință 900 lei salariul brut). ”Au fost 10 ani fantastici, care ne dau puterea să mergem mai departe. Visul nostru a fost să facem transportul aerian accesibil tuturor românilor. Au trecut zece ani de atunci și putem spune cu mândrie că am reușit. Am creat un brand românesc puternic, care să promoveze România și oamenii săi în Europa. Blue Air există pentru un singur motiv: pasagerii săi. Le mulțumim tuturor” - spune Gheorghe Răcaru, fondatorul și managerul general al companiei aviatice.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_3555\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"512\"]![\"Gheorghe](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Blue-engl-Racaru.jpg\")

Unii dintre angajați pot spune că au deja sânge albastru în vine, pentru că ne sunt alături încă de la începutul lansării companiei. Alții o vor spune poate peste zece-douăzeci de ani, și atunci vor putea afirma, probabil, că au devenit ”nobili” de Blue Air”.\r\n![\"Blue](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Blue-grup.jpg\")
\r\n\r\nManagementul a anunțat că 2014 se va încheia pe profit. Estimările anunță o cifra de afaceri de 150 milioane de euro. Anul a fost extrem de dens în investiții și sub aspectul managementului inovativ. Determinată de a oferi produse de calitate, accesibile, Blue Air a investit peste 6 milioane de euro în deschiderea a 6 noi rute, respectiv: din București, către Koln, Liverpool, Milano (Linate) și Torino (Cuneo); din Bacău, către Liverpool; din Torino (Caselle), către Catania. Au fost diversificate serviciile opționale de tip Premium, programele de formare profesională pentru angajații din front line și însoțitorii de zbor iar flota a ajuns la 11 aeronave, echipate cu noi scaune reclinable de ultima generație, Recaro 3520, ce oferă un confort superior. De asemenea a fost deschisă o bază operațională la Torino (Caselle), au fost lansate servicii de transfer terestru din Constanța și Brașov, corelate cu orarul de zbor al tuturor zborurilor cu plecare de pe Aeroportul Internațional Henri Coandă, respectiv a fost pusă la punct o nouă schemă de vopsire pentru aeronavele Blue Air.\r\n\r\nO investiție importantă constă în achiziționarea unui hangar pentru relocarea liniei pentru întreținerea aeronavelor, unde sunt deja oferite servicii de profil și pentru companii străine. Blue Air este preocupată de dinamizarea sistemelor de vânzări astfel că a început dezvoltarea distribuției prin GDS (Amadeus, Travelport, Apollo, Sabre, Sirena). Ca urmare a acestor parteneriate, agențiile din peste 190 de țări pot vinde biletele Blue Air, cu decontarea acestora prin sistemul IATA-BSP (Billing and Settlement Plan). Prin intermediul Hahn Air, Blue Air este automat și partener interline cu peste 250 de alte companii aeriene și devine o verigă a sistemului mondial de transport aerian.\r\n\r\n”Pentru 2015 estimăm o creștere a cifrei de afaceri cu 10 milioane de euro, iar numărul de pasageri va ajunge la 1,6 milioane.

Dar ca și în cazul reducerii TVA tot la 9% la produsele de panificație, marele câștigător au urma să fie bugetul statului.\r\n\r\nLesne de înțeles e că zona neagră și gri în care s-au ”reciclat” multe venituri pentru buzunarele lacome ale industriei, va răspunde pieții cu... generozitate. Se va lucra mai la lumină, nu va mai fi nevoie de atâtea controale ce încurajau în realitate acte de corupție. Numai nebun trebuie să mai fi, să fentezi în continuare sistemul, când ai 9% TVA pentru pachete turistice.\r\n\r\nE clar că taxa are două tăișuri ascuțite. Dacă măsura nu va avea efectul scontat - creșterea circulației turistice și creșterea colectării TVA la buget -, atunci tot ce a fost câștigat după ani de zile de lobby economic, poate fi pierdut într-o secundă.\r\n\r\nAltfel spus, România turistică se întoarce acasă în ianuarie 2015. Pâine și turism cu 9% TVA avem. A venit momentul să mai uităm de circ! Nu aduce nimic la buget pentru că nu se taxează.

Ofertele turistice, prezentate de companii românești și străine, au captat între 12 și 15 martie, atenția celor aproape 22.000 de vizitatori. Peste 260 de expozanți - instituții administrative, agenții de turism, tour-operatori, organizații și asociații de turism naționale (Sibiu, Alba Iulia, Iași, Cluj (Capitala culturală a tineretului în 2015), Sighișoara, București (cu cea mai nouă asociație de promovare turistică dar și cu un nou vizual), Mamaia, capitala distracțiilor estivale, dar și Mangalia (care s-a trezit la viață, era și timpul) etc. Foarte active, semn că piața românească e din ce în ce mai atractivă au fost organizațiile regionale și internaționale. Pe o suprafață de 11.700 de metri pătrați au expus companii din România, Croația, Grecia, Israel, Italia, Iordania, Polonia, Spania. Standuri oficiale au avut Bulgaria, Maroc, Malaezia, Moldova, Serbia, Turcia si Ungaria. Gradul de internaționalizare a fost de 34%, cu 7% mai mult decât la ediția similară din 2014. Unul dintre cele mai elegante standuri a fost cel al companiei flydubai. flydubai a prezentat la TTR, oferte atractive pentru călătorii de vacanță și de business, acoperind o rețea cu 90 de destinații ce conectează întreaga lume. Comentând participarea de la Târgul de Turism de la București Jeyhun Efendi, Senior Vice President Commercial (UAE, EU, ME, CIS) al flydubai a spus: “În cei peste doi ani de când operăm pe piața românească am observat o puternică creștere a călătoriilor înspre și dinspre Dubai, cu conexiuni înspre destinații ca Oman, Sri Lanka și Maldive. Și pe viitor vom căuta să oferim servicii mai prietenoase pentru pasagerii aeronavelor noastre dornici să exploreze zone incitante spre care zburăm. Oferim de asemenea servicii prioritare pentru Business Class și prețuri promoționale pentru secțiunea Economy Class, precum și pentru familiile cu copii sub 12 ani”.\r\n\r\nUnele țări ori regiuni au optat pentru conferințe de presă, altele pentru evenimente care s-au desfășurat înaintea începerii TTR sau pe parcursul acestuia. Oficiul de turism al Tunisiei, împreună cu operatorul Kartago Tour (Reprezentanța din Cluj e condusă de Souani Haithem), au organizat sub patronajul Ambasadei de la București, condusă de ES Boutheina Labidi, o ”Seara Tunisiană”. Prilej ideal de a promova printr-o paradă a modei, creații inspirate din tradițiile populare tunisiene. Designul, culorile, bijuteriile au evocat unicitatea unei destinații de vacanță din ce în ce mai căutată. Republica Moldova și-a prezentat brandul de țară (Slogan - Descoperă drumurile vieții) la standul său dar și în cadrul unei seri dedicată vinurilor și atracțiilor turistice la Restaurantul-Muzeu Vatra Neamului. Iordania a prezentat la rândul său mai multe atracții de vacanță, Petra fiind obiectivul-marcă al acestei țări. Grecii au ”tras”, la rândul lor din toate părțile. Salonicul a fost vedeta simpozionului tematic desfășurat sub sloganul ”Multe povești, o singură inimă”. în cadrul parteneriatului cu firma de consultanță Tourism Plus. Moderatorul Nikos C. Sapountzis și Spiros Pengas, viceprimar cu probleme de turism al Salonicului, au oferit invitaților posibilitatea de a vorbi despre atuurile turistice ale orașului dar și despre potențialul educațional deținut de acesta. Oficialitățile din regiunea Larisa, n-au scăpat ocazia să ne arate cum se fac banii din promovarea Muntelui lui Zeus și a împrejurimilor dominate de măslini, de ape albastre și plaje. La standul Regiunii Macedoniei de Est - Tracia, din nordul Greciei s-a lăsat cu muzică și dans. De la Michael Amiridis, vice-guvernator pe probleme de turism, am aflat că regiunea este foarte apreciată de turiștii români îndrăgostiți de natură și gastronomie. În plus touroperatorul Mouzenidis Travel (reprezentanța din România de condusă de Cristiana Barcun), a prezentat oportunitățile de dezvoltare pentru turismul medical dar și pentru Real Estate.\r\n\r\n„Ne-am bucurat de un număr mare de vizitatori la Rompexo, semn că bucureștenii, și nu numai, și-au făcut un obicei din a veni la TTR. De multe ori, turiștii decid în timpul târgului sau la puțin timp după, unde își vor petrece următoarea vacanță. Cele mai cerute au fost destinațiile tradiționale, România, Bulgaria, Grecia și Turcia. Vedeta litoralului rămâne Mamaia, însă, se observă o creștere și pentru zona de Sud” - spunea Aurelian Marin, noul președinte al ANAT. Un alt travel agent Alin Burcea (Președinte Paralela 45), este de părere că publicul consumator începe să-și schimbe opțiunile, este mai flexibil și dorește alte tipuri de oferte. ”S-a simțit și la actuala ediție. Oamenii nu mai agreează vacanțe lungi de 2-3 săptămâni. Mai ales populația tânără dorește să-și valorifice timpul în 2 sau chiar 3 vacanțe mai scurte, pe care le petrec combinat în țară și străinătate. Cursele charter vor fi la mare căutare”. Rodica Pencea, reprezentantul Organizației Patronale a Turismului Balnear din România (OPTBR), consideră la rândul său că acest segment se repoziționează rapid prin investițiile realizate. ”În cadrul seminarului pe care l-am organizat am prezentat 3 noi investiții competitive pe plan internațional - Complexul Lotus de la Băile Felix (cu 16 piscine), hotelul Brădet din Covasna, respectiv Complexul de bazine interioare și exterioare de la Călimănești-Căciulata”.\r\n\r\nPersoanele cu vârsta de peste 55 de ani au fost în căutarea programelor pentru seniori în Spania, Italia, Grecia, Dubai etc. În ceea ce privește destinațiile exotice, Republica Dominicană a fost vedeta târgului. Cel mai asaltat stand a fost cel al firmei Christian Tour, care a inspirat și alte agenții să practice vânzări...la botul calului. ”Am observat că odată cu creșterea puterii de cumpărare cererea s-a diversificat. Foarte bine primite au fost programele Senior Voyage, dar și cele dedicate familiilor cu copii, pentru care am pregătit pliante și pachete speciale” - ne-a declarat directorul Marius Pandel.\r\n\r\nRecenta ediție a Târgului de Turism al Romaniei a găzduit Saloanele Nautic, respectiv Expo Sport și Agrement. Aici vizitatorii au interacționat cu experți în domeniul nautic, au admirat ambarcțiunile de agrement expuse și au participat la competiții de ciclism, curse cu obstacole etc. „Am fost încântat să observ că agențiile de turism dezvoltă produse turistice atractive pe piața locală. Pot spune că ediția 33 a fost una marcată de noutăți care, sper, au fost pe placul publicului” - a declarat Cătălin Trifu, directorul general al Romexpo. TTR, a fost organizat în parteneriat cu ANAT, FPTR, OPTBR și ANTREC.

Romania qualified as number five, due to the neighbourhood of Ferentari, in Bucharest.

Based on the votes of specialists and curious travellers the ranking selected the weirdest, ugliest, and dangerous holiday destinations in the world. Romania qualified as number five, due to the neighbourhood of Ferentari, in Bucharest. Although negatively impressed by the poverty and aspect of this particular part of the city, the spacialists at CNN show that this is not a definitory place for Romania, a country that offers amazing beauties and attractions such as The Carpathian Mountains, The Transilvanian Plateau and several unique objectives. The indicated places to visit are The Peles Royal Palace, Bran Castle, Sighișoara Medieval City, the monasteries in Northern Moldavia, etc. CNN puts together with Romania in its unusual ranking other countries such as Bolivia, Bhutan, Malawi, Mongolia, The Arctic Polar Circle and even… the Space.','15 years for SKAL INTERNATIONAL ROMANIA, ENGLISH VERSION no. 131','','inherit','open','open','','3581-revision-v1','','','2015-04-23 09:33:01','2015-04-23 07:33:01','',3581,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/04/23/3581-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0);

Tourism Review este dedicat specialiştilor în domeniu iar într-un articol despre cele mai interesante castele din Europa se aminteşte de Castelul Huniazilor. Îmbinarea de arhitectură gotică şi renascentistă dar mai ales o vagă posibilitate de asociere cu povestea lui Vlad Ţepeş au adus locaţia la aceeaşi masă cu Guimaraes (Portugalia), De la Mota (Spania), Eilean Donan (Scoţia) ori deja celebrele Neuschwanstein şi Hohenzollern din Germania.\r\n\r\nCastelul Corvinilor datează din secolul al XV-lea, şi este asociat în istorie cu figura lui Iancu de Hunedoara. De aici avem şi numele de Castelul Huniazilor. Blazonul familiei este corbul cu inel în cioc şi se leagă de o veche istorie care curge cam aşa: Iancu de Hunedoara ar fi fost fiul nelegitim al Sigismund de Luxemburg, rege al Ungariei, care i-ar fi dăruit mamei băiatului, înainte ca acesta să se nască, un inel de aur, pentru a-l recunoaște pe fiul său atunci când acesta va merge la curtea regală. Pe când Iancu era copil, familia face un popas în timpul unei călătorii și mama lui uită inelul pe ștergarul cu merinde. Un corb, atras de strălucirea podoabei, îl fură, însă Iancu îl doboară cu arcul și recuperează inelul. Ani mai târziu, când ajunge pentru prima dată la curtea regelui Sigismund, Iancu povestește pățania cu inelul, iar regele decide ca simbolul familiei să fie, din acel moment, corbul cu inel de aur în cioc.\r\n![\"Ev](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Ev-Castel-corvinesti.jpg\")
\r\n\r\nO altă poveste a castelului spusă de ghizi îi are drept protagoniști pe trei prizonieri turci, cărora Iancu de Hunedoara le-ar fi promis libertatea după săparea unei fântâni în curtea castelului. 15 ani de muncă au trecut iar turcii au găsit apă. Au fost însă condamnaţi la moarte iar ultima lor dorință a fost să inscripţioneze pe cheile fântânii “Apă ai, inimă nu”, drept dovadă peste timp a încălcării promisiunii date.

\r\n\r\nRamada, primul hotel business class internațional din Oradea, a lansat Wine Spa din România - Riserva. Creat pentru a răspunde celor mai rafinate așteptări, Riserva Wine Spa aduce în premieră pe piața de wellness & beauty tratamentele pe bază de vinoterapie și linia de tratamente Hi-Tech by FisioKinlab, premiată pentru inovație la Salonul Internațional Paris 2014. Riserva Wine Spa include astfel România pe harta turismului de spa exclusivist, alături de Franța, Australia, America, Noua Zeelandă și Africa de Sud.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"3602,3603,3604,3605\"]\r\n\r\nRiserva Spa Signature aduce experiența degustării vinului la un nou nivel, prin terapii ce poartă semnătura casei: fiecare ritual începe cu un jeleu de vin și continuă cu un Scrub Bar - un concept introdus în România de Spa d\'Or, care a asigurat consultanța spa. Riserva Spa Signatures abordează holistic starea de bine, incluzând tratamente pentru mâini și picioare, exfolieri și diferite tipuri de masaje, iar ritualurile intitulate sugestiv Merlot, Pinotage, Cabernet sau Divinum, sunt asociate la final cu vinul potrivit. Face & Body Collection, sunt create atât pentru bărbați, cât și pentru femei. Seria de tratamente dedicate domnilor folosește produse din gama Kianty de la Bruno Vassari. Riserva Water Rituals este răspunsul Riserva pentru cei care își doresc mai mult de la un spa. Ritualurile de hidroterapie includ băi cu lapte și băi cu nectar de struguri. Riserva aduce în Oradea ritmul petrecerilor din marile metropole, terasa fiind disponibilă pentru manifestări private pe conceptul Roof Top Party - ne-a precizat Nadia Ionescu, directorul de Vânzări și Marketing al hotelului Ramada Oradea.

Cenușăreasă. Acum e recunoscut. Dar numai atât nu e de ajuns. Turismul maritim este o mină de aur pentru țările Uniunii Europene care dețin un asemenea potențial. Sectorul asigură locuri de muncă pentru peste 3,2 milioane de persoane.\r\n\r\nLa fel de importantă este valoarea adăugată brută totală cu care contribuie anual la economiile țărilor UE. Nu mai puțin de 183 de miliarde de euro, ceea ce reprezintă peste o treime produsul brut al economiei maritime. Potențialul ramâne în continuare o provocare pentru inovație economică și acest lucru a determinat Comisia Europeană să prezinte o nouă strategie de sprijinire a turismului maritim și în zonele de coastă din Europa. În plus, un atuu demn de luat în seamă este că aceste industrii se pot dezvolta durabil și organic ceea ce se traduce prin crearea de noi locuri de muncă.

Cenușăreasă. Acum e recunoscut. Dar numai atât nu e de ajuns. Turismul maritim este o mină de aur pentru țările Uniunii Europene care dețin un asemenea potențial. Sectorul asigură locuri de muncă pentru peste 3,2 milioane de persoane.\r\n\r\nLa fel de importantă este valoarea adăugată brută totală cu care contribuie anual la economiile țărilor UE. Nu mai puțin de 183 de miliarde de euro, ceea ce reprezintă peste o treime produsul brut al economiei maritime. Potențialul ramâne în continuare o provocare pentru inovație economică și acest lucru a determinat Comisia Europeană să prezinte o nouă strategie de sprijinire a turismului maritim și în zonele de coastă din Europa. În plus, un atuu demn de luat în seamă este că aceste industrii se pot dezvolta durabil și organic ceea ce se traduce prin crearea de noi locuri de muncă.

\r\n\r\nProfesorul Ovidiu Bojor, a vorbit despre cultura traco-daco-geților, și despre faptul că pământurile mustesc de istorie nevalorificată din punct de vedere istoric, turistic, ori cultural. ”TraciaLand este un concept energetic, el are o dimensiune spirituală și sufletească unică. Merită să reamintesc că în domeniul medicinii prima concepție holistică s-a născut tot în Tracia.

TraciaLand este a IV-a rețea de acest gen din țara noastră și include în structură 5 clustere de turism. Importantă în viața unui cluster este colaborarea și încrederea. La fel de important e să se înțeleagă că un cluster are o viață limitată care depinde de puterea de inovare a membrilor săi, din perspectivă tehnologică dar mai ales socială. Un cluster se naște, se dezvoltă, intră în declin, după care poate să se stingă ori să renască. La fel de folositor este să știm cum să creăm lanțuri valorice, pentru că Uniunea Europeană finanțează parteneriate cât mai mari, mai consistente. Spre exemplu în domeniul Strategiilor Dunărene există pente 800 de aplicații depuse, majoritatea dintre ele cu un impact turistic major”.\r\n\r\nGeorge Betianu, un român cu afaceri britanice prin Riverside Group London, parte a clusterului TraciaLand, a relatat despre tipologia consumatorului britanic și crearea de locuri de muncă în străinătate și în țara noastră pentru români. E proprietar, împreună cu asociații săi, tot români - al mai multor mărci - printre care Maestro (preparate din carne), GB Travel (agenție de corporate travel), Media Cars (transferuri și transporturi), dar și în domeniile asigurărilor, curățeniei ori recrutării de forță de muncă. Afacerile sale au debutat în 1995. De atunci a fost preocupat să-și promoveze țara dar și să atragă forță de muncă românească pe piața britanică. ”Prin compania de turism încerc să vând cât mai bine România turiștilor englezi.\r\n\r\nAm înregistrat un interes în creștere în rândul acestora la ultimele ediții ale World Travel Market de la Londra. Prin agenția mea de recrutare am asigurat până acum contracte pentru 2.000 de tineri, foarte apreciați pentru pregătirea lor. Mă preocupă constant următorul aspect. Și el merită dezvoltat prin clusterul TraciaLand. Mulți români plecați să muncească în străinătate, în cazul de față Marea Britanie, se mulțumesc să presteze munci sub nivelul lor de pregătire și calificare. Astfel risipesc energii și resurse financiare. Consider că nu trebuie să așteptăm să ne creeze investitorii străini locuri de muncă.\r\n\r\n\r\nPutem să o facem și noi, cu aplicație și respect și în țară și în străinătate.

Valentina Saygo este general manager al companiei Ask for Tax Free. Bună cunoscătoare a fenomenului, domnia sa militează pentru o mai bună promovare a sistemului Tax Free pe teritoriul țării noastre. Ask for Tax Free este prima companie din România care, din 2013, oferă servicii specializate în restituirea TVA tuturor persoanelor non-UE. Compania a autorizat unele dintre cele mai mari magazine de lux, cum ar fi: Ermanno Scervino, Sabion, Azay, My House-The Art of living, The Place Concept Store și deține un parteneriat cu Jumbo, unul dintre cei mai mari retaileri de jucării și decorațiuni interioare. La o cafea încercăm să aflăm cum stăm la acest capitol!\r\n- În linii mari vorbim despre restituirea TVA-ului cetățenilor proveniți din țările non-UE, care fac achiziții în România. În linii extinse, vorbim despre necesitatea apropierii României de dinamici asemănătoare unor țări precum Italia unde există o legatură directă între comerciant și Fisc, sau Islanda, unde poți face cumpărături din aeroport cu dovada bonurilor și contravaloarea TVA-ului deja plătit. Vorbim astfel despre inițiative susținute de informare-educare în primul rând pentru posesorii de magazine care trebuie să accepte necesitatea autorizarii Tax Free ca măsură a respectului față de client. În al doilea rând avem și un aspect reversibil. Vorbim de informarea la nivel general a consumatorilor români care trebuie să știe că se poate bucura de aceleași beneficii, în funcție de legislația fiecărei țări, la cumpărarea de pe teritoriile non-UE.\r\n\r\n- Cum se restituie TVA-ul, la nivelul standardelor internaționale de azi !\r\n\r\n- VAT Refund sau Tax Free Shopping este un concept apărut încă din anii 1980, la nivel internațional. Legislatia TAX Free exista în România din 2004, și a fost modificată ulterior odată cu aderarea noastră la UE, în 2007. Aplicarea ei cere însa multe imbunătățiri la ora actuală. Sistemul de restituire TVA a funcționat până acum greu, rar și cu sincope. Expații sau persoanele cu dublă cetățenie au posibilitatea să își recupereze TVA-ul pentru bunurile cumpărate din România și transportabile în afara spațiului UE. Trebuie respectate câteva condiții: magazinul de la care cumpără trebuie să fie autorizat Tax Free, și să elibereze factura și “Documentul de restituire TVA”; turiștii trebuie să părăsească spațiul UE în maxim 90 zile de la cumpărarea bunurilor, să vizeze documentele la vamă și să se întoarcă în magazin, care este obligat să le plătească banii fără a percepe vreun comision.

\r\n\r\nCum în Apuseni, Bucovina, Maramureș locurile sunt ocupate 100% aproape tot anul, trebuie să te sacrifici pentru un Dubai, Mauritius, Caraibe, Cayman, o Dominicană sau să plătești o Gală Bute, unde să vezi frunza învinețită la ochi. Rămâi prostit când vezi atât patriotism dezinteresat din partea unor foști miniștri ai turismului, care au făcut totul numai din dragoste de țară. Te doare până la lacrimi că ei sunt vânați pe... nedrept. Au ajuns să-și vândă toate bunurile pe care le-au avut ca să promoveze turismul românesc prin conturile secrete, off-shore din paradisurile fiscale. Și acum, iată cum li se mulțumește. Halal țară, halal popor, halal conducători. Nu e cinstit că se întîmplă așa tocmai acum când despre turism se vorbește non-stop, că le-au dat spumele la gură, de invidie, marilor puteri turistice.\r\n\r\nDespre care turism??? Despre cel politic, de cumetrie, despre cel de grupuri infracționale, despre cel prin venele căruia s-au scurs fluvii cu fonduri Regio. Cu toate astea unii vor supraviețui mlaștinii manipulărilor. Vor avea șansa de a produce și vinde pachete turistice inedite. Ca de exemplu ”Turul Național al Închisorilor din România - Investește în oameni”. Desigur programul trebuie să fie finanțat de UE.

Toate drumurile moderne americane au o... ”mamă”! E celebrul Route 66 alintată și răsfățată drept ”Mother Road”. Evident, au și un ”tată”, locul de naștere al acestei legende vii fiind fascinanta metropolă Chicago. Dacă ai ajuns la Chicago este imperativ necesar să-ți faci o fotografie la intersecția drumurilor de unde pornește celebra șosea. Pasul următor, făcut și de noi, este să pornești într-un periplu de-a lungul acestei rute. Am ales traseul clasic, încărcat de istorie și misterioase povești, unele dintre ele cândva adevărate.\r\n![\"Route](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Route-66-Caterpillar-1024.jpg\")
\r\n\r\nPONTIAC - întreabă și de Bob\r\n\r\nNe-am îndreptat spre Pontiac, localitate emblematică pentru istoria vizuală a șoselei noastre. Aici se află cea mai mare pictură murală reprezentând Route 66 semnată de artistul american Bob Waldmire. Lui i se datorează de altfel și desenului mărcii recunoscută pe întregul mapamond. Nu există bar, berărie, restaurant, hotel, aflate la șosea să nu expună un astfel de trofeu ori marcaj vizual. Dacă nu ești 66 Route nu te cunoaște nimeni și ai șansa să rămâi pe... drumuri. Vorba vine... În plus, chiar dacă e posibil să nu credeți, această siglă reprezintă inelul cu diamant, ”visul” oricărei femei! Dacă în timpul vieții a fost considerat un excentric Bob a dobândit o faimă postumă uriașă. Așa încât magazinele cu suveniruri fac bani frumoși după replicile și copiile lucrărilor sale. Route 66 Association of Illinois Hall of Fame Museum gestionează cu profesionalism toată această moștenire. Sunt conservate și expuse publicului autobuzul și rulota care i-au folosit artistului drept casă și atelier. Pontiac, o localitate cu aproximativ 12.000 de locuitori, suprinde prin respectul acordat moștenirii istorice. Orașul, fondat de constructorii căii ferate americane pe care circulă AMTRAK, oferă turiștilor ocazia de a vizita și un muzeu al automobilului. Cele 15 mașini de epocă reflectă imaginea elegantă a mărcii Pontiac și nu numai. La fel de atractivă este colecția de ceramică. Nu mai vorbim de suveniruri. Știați că ”Pontiac” este numele șefului tribului indian stăpân cândva pe aceste locuri? Expoziția este dominată de reprezentarea lui sculpturală. Dar surpriza cea mai mare este oferită turiștilor de un ansamblu al artiștilor amatori, voluntari ai muzeului, care vin cu plăcere, de câte ori sunt solicitați, să susțină un mini-spectacol de revistă, retro anii ‘60, plin de nerv și veselie. Viața bate filmul! Niciun turist nu rămâne simplu privitor căci ritmul muzicii, vrei nu vrei, te trage spre vârtejul dansului. Deh, ăsta-i Rock and Roll-ul. La final după o asemenea zbânțuială a trebuit să ne refacem forțele la un restaurant din apropiere. Nu înainte de a le mulțumi animatorilor, unii dintre ei trecuți de...70 de ani. Cum altfel și restaurantul trebuia să fie unul faimos. Cozy Dog a fost fondat în 1949 chiar de către familia lui Waldmire. Rețeta acestui ”hot dog pe băț” este aceeași de la înființare și, firește e un secret bine păstrat și azi. Restaurantul muzeu, cu o atmosferă familială, expune nu doar lista de meniuri ci și o colecție impresionantă de afișe, sticle, mașinuțe și alte obiecte legate de Route 66.

Toate drumurile moderne americane au o... ”mamă”! E celebrul Route 66 alintată și răsfățată drept ”Mother Road”. Evident, au și un ”tată”, locul de naștere al acestei legende vii fiind fascinanta metropolă Chicago. Dacă ai ajuns la Chicago este imperativ necesar să-ți faci o fotografie la intersecția drumurilor de unde pornește celebra șosea. Pasul următor, făcut și de noi, este să pornești într-un periplu de-a lungul acestei rute. Am ales traseul clasic, încărcat de istorie și misterioase povești, unele dintre ele cândva adevărate.\r\n\r\n\r\nPONTIAC - întreabă și de Bob\r\n\r\nNe-am îndreptat spre Pontiac, localitate emblematică pentru istoria vizuală a șoselei noastre. Aici se află cea mai mare pictură murală reprezentând Route 66 semnată de artistul american Bob Waldmire. Lui i se datorează de altfel și desenului mărcii recunoscută pe întregul mapamond. Nu există bar, berărie, restaurant, hotel, aflate la șosea să nu expună un astfel de trofeu ori marcaj vizual. Dacă nu ești 66 Route nu te cunoaște nimeni și ai șansa să rămâi pe... drumuri. Vorba vine... În plus, chiar dacă e posibil să nu credeți, această siglă reprezintă inelul cu diamant, ”visul” oricărei femei! Dacă în timpul vieții a fost considerat un excentric Bob a dobândit o faimă postumă uriașă. Așa încât magazinele cu suveniruri fac bani frumoși după replicile și copiile lucrărilor sale. Route 66 Association of Illinois Hall of Fame Museum gestionează cu profesionalism toată această moștenire. Sunt conservate și expuse publicului autobuzul și rulota care i-au folosit artistului drept casă și atelier. Pontiac, o localitate cu aproximativ 12.000 de locuitori, suprinde prin respectul acordat moștenirii istorice. Orașul, fondat de constructorii căii ferate americane pe care circulă AMTRAK, oferă turiștilor ocazia de a vizita și un muzeu al automobilului. Cele 15 mașini de epocă reflectă imaginea elegantă a mărcii Pontiac și nu numai. La fel de atractivă este colecția de ceramică. Nu mai vorbim de suveniruri. Știați că ”Pontiac” este numele șefului tribului indian stăpân cândva pe aceste locuri? Expoziția este dominată de reprezentarea lui sculpturală. Dar surpriza cea mai mare este oferită turiștilor de un ansamblu al artiștilor amatori, voluntari ai muzeului, care vin cu plăcere, de câte ori sunt solicitați, să susțină un mini-spectacol de revistă, retro anii ‘60, plin de nerv și veselie. Viața bate filmul! Niciun turist nu rămâne simplu privitor căci ritmul muzicii, vrei nu vrei, te trage spre vârtejul dansului. Deh, ăsta-i Rock and Roll-ul. La final după o asemenea zbânțuială a trebuit să ne refacem forțele la un restaurant din apropiere. Nu înainte de a le mulțumi animatorilor, unii dintre ei trecuți de...70 de ani. Cum altfel și restaurantul trebuia să fie unul faimos. Cozy Dog a fost fondat în 1949 chiar de către familia lui Waldmire. Rețeta acestui ”hot dog pe băț” este aceeași de la înființare și, firește e un secret bine păstrat și azi. Restaurantul muzeu, cu o atmosferă familială, expune nu doar lista de meniuri ci și o colecție impresionantă de afișe, sticle, mașinuțe și alte obiecte legate de Route 66. Evident, alături de Cozy Dog ți se recomandă un suc de fructe sau o bere marca Route 66. Mii de turiști pun săptămânal aceeași întrebare: Putem lua, cu noi, ca suvenire, sticla și capacul??? Răspunsul e invariabil afirmativ. Și astfel, înpachetând ”trofeul”, îți dai seama cât de puternică a ajuns să fie această legendă în Statele Unite.

Locul reprezintă una dintre creațiile rezultate din devotamentul și dragostea față de natură a familiei Rutherford, care în anii ‘60 au amenajat prin Forest Park Foundation, acest parc natural ce deține azi peste 150 de animale sălbatice dintre care 50 specifice statului Illinois.\nCe i-au determinat să facă asemenea investiții... neprofitabile?

Toate drumurile moderne americane au o... ”mamă”! E celebrul Route 66 alintată și răsfățată drept ”Mother Road”. Evident, au și un ”tată”, locul de naștere al acestei legende vii fiind fascinanta metropolă Chicago. Dacă ai ajuns la Chicago este imperativ necesar să-ți faci o fotografie la intersecția drumurilor de unde pornește celebra șosea. Pasul următor, făcut și de noi, este să pornești într-un periplu de-a lungul acestei rute.

Aici se află cea mai mare pictură murală reprezentând Route 66 semnată de artistul american Bob Waldmire. Lui i se datorează de altfel și desenului mărcii recunoscută pe întregul mapamond. Nu există bar, berărie, restaurant, hotel, aflate la șosea să nu expună un astfel de trofeu ori marcaj vizual. Dacă nu ești 66 Route nu te cunoaște nimeni și ai șansa să rămâi pe... drumuri. Vorba vine... În plus, chiar dacă e posibil să nu credeți, această siglă reprezintă inelul cu diamant, ”visul” oricărei femei! Dacă în timpul vieții a fost considerat un excentric Bob a dobândit o faimă postumă uriașă. Așa încât magazinele cu suveniruri fac bani frumoși după replicile și copiile lucrărilor sale. Route 66 Association of Illinois Hall of Fame Museum gestionează cu profesionalism toată această moștenire. Sunt conservate și expuse publicului autobuzul și rulota care i-au folosit artistului drept casă și atelier. Pontiac, o localitate cu aproximativ 12.000 de locuitori, suprinde prin respectul acordat moștenirii istorice. Orașul, fondat de constructorii căii ferate americane pe care circulă AMTRAK, oferă turiștilor ocazia de a vizita și un muzeu al automobilului. Cele 15 mașini de epocă reflectă imaginea elegantă a mărcii Pontiac și nu numai. La fel de atractivă este colecția de ceramică. Nu mai vorbim de suveniruri. Știați că ”Pontiac” este numele șefului tribului indian stăpân cândva pe aceste locuri? Expoziția este dominată de reprezentarea lui sculpturală. Dar surpriza cea mai mare este oferită turiștilor de un ansamblu al artiștilor amatori, voluntari ai muzeului, care vin cu plăcere, de câte ori sunt solicitați, să susțină un mini-spectacol de revistă, retro anii ‘60, plin de nerv și veselie. Viața bate filmul! Niciun turist nu rămâne simplu privitor căci ritmul muzicii, vrei nu vrei, te trage spre vârtejul dansului. Deh, ăsta-i Rock and Roll-ul. La final după o asemenea zbânțuială a trebuit să ne refacem forțele la un restaurant din apropiere. Nu înainte de a le mulțumi animatorilor, unii dintre ei trecuți de...70 de ani. Cum altfel și restaurantul trebuia să fie unul faimos. Cozy Dog a fost fondat în 1949 chiar de către familia lui Waldmire. Rețeta acestui ”hot dog pe băț” este aceeași de la înființare și, firește e un secret bine păstrat și azi. Restaurantul muzeu, cu o atmosferă familială, expune nu doar lista de meniuri ci și o colecție impresionantă de afișe, sticle, mașinuțe și alte obiecte legate de Route 66. Evident, alături de Cozy Dog ți se recomandă un suc de fructe sau o bere marca Route 66. Mii de turiști pun săptămânal aceeași întrebare: Putem lua, cu noi, ca suvenire, sticla și capacul??? Răspunsul e invariabil afirmativ. Și astfel, înpachetând ”trofeul”, îți dai seama cât de puternică a ajuns să fie această legendă în Statele Unite.

Dacă în primul poți petrece o zi întreagă cu familia printre stele, porțelanuri, istorie și meșteșuguri și jocuri lejere, în al doilea te copleșeșc creații tehnice gigant pe patru și mai multe roți. În primul te dovedești a fi un vizitator vesel și relaxat. În al doilea, în vecinătatea unor uriași de zeci de tone (camioane, basculante, transportatoare), folosiți la giganticele construcții industriale, îți dai seama de puterea creatoare a minții umane, și de nivelul atins de acești coloși funcționali. Ca o idee, cele mai mai roți depășesc diamentrul de 5 metri, iar acești mastodonți sunt conduși de la un pupitru echipat cu numeroase computere. Numai dacă vezi poți să crezi. Ne readuce cu picioarele pe... apă un prânz copios servit la bordul unui vas cu zbaturi, elegantul ”Spirit of Peoria”. Fiind în drumul nostru ne-am hotărât să luăm o gură de aer proaspăt și să ne oprim la Wildlife Prairie Park, o zonă protejată de aproape 2.000 de hectare, populată cu bizoni, cerbi, urși și alte sălbăticiuni ce trăiesc liber într-un mediu natural protejat. Locul reprezintă una dintre creațiile rezultate din devotamentul și dragostea față de natură a familiei Rutherford, care în anii ‘60 au amenajat prin Forest Park Foundation, acest parc natural ce deține azi peste 150 de animale sălbatice dintre care 50 specifice statului Illinois.\r\nCe i-au determinat să facă asemenea investiții... neprofitabile? Spiritul voluntar stă la baza devotamentului față de comunitatea din care faci parte. Aflând că animalele sălbatice ale Grădinii zoologice din Brookfield nu mai aveau spațiu pentru viețuire decentă ei au acționat în consecință. Au cumpărat un teren imens pe care l-au amenajat ca parc natural. Pentru a ne încărca bateriile ne-am suit și noi în trenulețul care face turul proprietății în speranța că ne vom întâlni cu un urs brun, cu o coadă de vulpe... etc. Ne-am mulțumit la final să admirăm de pe terasa panoramică special amenajată majestoșii bizoni, rumegând liniștiți. Tot la maxim a fost savurată și prezentarea de vinuri, făcută de somelierii și producătorii locali.\r\n\r\nColecții cu cei mai gustoși pui din lume\r\n\r\nO cină servită la cel mai faimos restaurant de pe Route 66 este un ”must”. ”White Fence Farm” datează din 1920 și a devenit celebru pentru că din meniu puteți comanda cel mai bun și gustos pui din lume. Atenție, 1100 de oameni pot lua masa simultan în acest local. În weekend locurile se ocupă numai pe bază de... rezervare. Restaurantul are în spate o întreagă logistică asigurată de investitori, direct de la fermele proprii de pui, plante naturale folosite ca ingrediente, sosuri, cartofi etc. Inpresionant este și spațiul de la intrare, unde aștepți până ești condus la masă. În el se află un veritabil muzeu în care sunt depozitate de la colecții de clopoței, mașinuțe și alte jucării pentru copii dar și pentru oameni mari, ceasuri, bibelouri, tablouri, fotografii și multe alte obiecte ce au fost salvate de la coșurile de gunoi. Toate au fost lusturite, restaurate și expuse în acest muzeu eclectic. Specific americanilor: aproape nimic nu se aruncă, totul se colecționează... Pentru că fiecare dintre aceste obiecte vorbesc într-un fel sau altul despre o bucățică de istorie.\r\n\r\nBrooks și sertarul cu blues-uri\r\n\r\nUltima seară pe Route 66 am încheiat-o cu o un regal muzical. Sala de concerte, un hangar uriaș, se află în renumitul restaurant ”Just off 66”. Muzeu ori depozit, greu de spus, aici au fost strânse de la colecțiile de sticle Coca Cola până la cele de mașini de spălat ori frigidere și lăzi frigorifice. Un tur prin ”istoria societății de consum” ne este ghidat chiar de fondatorii locului soții Sam și Lynne Reichart. Surpriza serii a fost band-ul lui Wayne Baker Brooks, fiul legendarului solist de blues Lonnie Brooks. Compozițiile lui Wayne, pe care am avut privilegiu să-l ascultăm și la Las Vegas, sunt fascinante, te învăluiesc molatec într-o stare de bine pe care ți-o dorești să nu se mai termine. Depozite, arheologie industrială, muzică, atmosferă unică, toate contribuie la vraja artistică pe care ne-am dorit să o imortalizăm. O fotografie, un CD, cu autografele lui Wayne și ale formației sale, le colecționăm pentru sertarul amintirilor noastre americane.\r\nRoute 66, mai ne spun specialiștii în turism ai statului Illinois, se suprapune peste ceea ce e cunoscut drept ”Heritage Corridor”. Acum, noi am străbătut încă un tronson... betonat cu istorie. Remarcabile, și de data aceasta, devotamentul și mândria de a ne oferi date folositoare documentării noastre.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nMulțumiri pentru sprijinul acordat \r\nUS TRAVEL ASSOCIATION, ILLINOIS OFFICE TOURISM \r\n& OLIMPIC INTERNATIONAL TURISM','SIMPLY - ROUTE 66, MAPAMOND nr. 132','','inherit','open','open','','3676-revision-v1','','','2015-05-26 08:05:15','2015-05-26 06:05:15','',3676,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/05/26/3676-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(3710,1,'2015-06-01 09:05:03','2015-06-01 07:05:03','','targ-turism-copii530','','inherit','open','open','','targ-turism-copii530','','','2015-06-01 09:05:03','2015-06-01 07:05:03','',3709,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/targ-turism-copii530.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3711,1,'2015-06-01 09:05:51','2015-06-01 07:05:51','PICII DAU TONUL CĂLĂTORIILOR\r\n\r\n\r\nTRAVELLER MAGAZIN ȘI InfoTravelRomania.ro vă invită între 1 - 14 iunie 2015 - la un Târg Inedit, ce va fi organizat în magazinul Unirea Shopping Center din București, aripa Călăraşi, la etajul II, într-un spaţiu expoziţional inedit, de 800 metri pătrați, cu acces direct din parcare sau din corpul central al magazinului.

Bucharest is surprisingly on the 10th place after cities such as Manaus, Recife, Salvador, Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo (all in Brazil), being followed by Santorini (Greece), Hilton Head (USA), Grand Junction (USA) and Milano (Italy). The 4th edition od the MasterCard Index of Global Destination Cities rates Bucharest number 90, out of 132 most visited cities in the world. „London, Bangkok, Paris, Singapor and Dubai take the first five positions, being cities that have so many tourists also due to the wealth growth of the middle class, the inovations in travel and the need to travel with business” – shows MasterCard.\r\n\r\nCHRISTIAN TOUR - 18 years old!\r\n\r\nThe largest charter holidays Romanian tour operator closed last year with over 52 million euro sales, surpassing its previous 2013 record of 45 million euros, as shown by Marius Pandel, CEO Christian Tour.\r\nThe favourite outgoing destinations of 2014 for the clients of Christian Tour where: Crete, Korfu, Thassos, Rhodes, Zakynthos (Greece), Antalya (Turkey), Mallorca (Spain) and Dubai.

The black and white pictures belong to the Turkish photographer Mustafa Dedeoğlu. His whish was to capture with his camera the imaginary world, the story behind it, but more than that the torment of a life full of charm and simplicity. Istanbul is the city where he was born in 1978, photography being a young passion that started somewhere in 2006. A part of his photos, from the last eight years of working with the camera, where exhibited in March at the National Village Museum ,,Dimitrie Gusti” in Bucharest, under the title \"Timeless city Istanbul & faces\". The event took place with the participation of The Embassy of Turkey in Romania, The Turkish Democratic Union in Romania and the Turkish-Muslim Tatar Democratic Union in Romania.\r\nJ’Info Tours reached 25 years\r\nOne of the first private travel agencies in Romania J’Info Tours celebrated its 25th aniversary, and an overall of three million customers. ”During the time our concern has been to build a brand that grew through its quality services, we followed a sustainable business plan that offers profit after 25 years, we revolutionned Romanian tourism through products that created a fashion in their time: Viva Spania, Bella Italia, Following Gaudi and Dali, Safari in Kenya, The World of Darwin etc” - said Carmen Pavel, general director of J’Info Tours.\r\nStarting 2000 the company became the only partner in Romania of HRG ( Hogg Robinson Group) – one of the top three worldwide travel management companies.

\r\nZIUA TURISTICĂ appeared in a partnership with Omega Press Investment the editor of ZIUA daily newspaper. It has been the first modern weekly travel magazine in Romania.\r\nStarting 2004 a new registered brand was launched on the market: TRAVELLER MAGAZIN – monthly magazine of the hospitality industry in Romania. The editorial team continued its experience in the first publication, developing it in a professional high-standard format.

ANT a precizat că documentarul ce va fi realizat pentru promovarea cu precădere a Bucureștiului ca destinație „smart” de city- break împreuna cu spoturile de promovare au rolul de a aborda atât partea mai puțin cunoscută a orașului din punct de vedere al istoriei, al vieții culturale, artistice etc. Conceptul „Smart Cities” presupune realizarea a câte unui film pentru 18 orașe europene relevante, considerate a deține cel mai mare potențial de creștere în următorii ani. Producțiile vor fi difuzate în Germania, Franța, Italia, Marea Britanie, Rusia și România, ca piețe țintă, precum și în Spania, Polonia, Abu Dhabi și India, ca piețe de oportunitate.\r\n\r\nEXPOZIȚIE CU LUCRĂRI ALE ȘCOLII DE LA TUNIS.\r\nLa Muzeul Național Cotroceni din București a fost deschisă expoziția de pictură cu titlul ”L’Ecole de Tunis”. Ea reunește o selecție de tablouri semnate de pictori tunisieni ai secolului 20, ce fac parte din acest curent artistic figurativ apărut după cel ce-al Doilea Război Mondial, ce reunește artiști de diverse origini. Tablourile expuse sunt semnat de Pierre Boucherle, Jules Lellouche, Moses Levy, Ali Bellagha, Jalel Ben Abdallah, Brahim Dahak, Safia Farhat, Abdelaziz Gorgi, Hedi Turki, Zoubeir Turki, Yaha Turki, Aly Ben Salem, Ammar Farhat etc. Evenimentul, organizat de către Ambasada Republicii Tunisiene în România, a beneficiat de sprijinul Organizației Internaționale a Francofoniei (OIF) și al Universității Naționale de Muzică din București (UNMB), în cadrul sărbătoririi lunii Francofoniei de către GADIF (Grupul Ambasadelor, Delegațiilor, Instituțiilor Francophone).\r\n\r\nS-A ÎNFIINȚAT ORGANIZAȚIA DE MARKETING ÎN TURISM DIN ROMÂNIA\r\nOMTR își propune sa devina o entitate reprezentativă pentru revigorarea, dezvoltarea şi promovarea turismului românesc. Asociația este formată din specialişti în domeniu sau din sectoare adiacente dar și din oameni de afaceri de succes. Printre obiectivele noii organizații se numără promovarea limbajului de specialitate, elaborarea unor studii de marketing, realizarea unor studii de formare/ consolidare/ repoziționare a imaginii produsului turistic românesc, elaborarea unor planuri de marketing specifice și a unor programe de promovare aplicate. „Dorim ca OMTR să devină furnizor de experiență în vederea revigorării, dezvoltării susținute și, implicit, promovării turismului românesc de către fiecare pentru fiecare și împreună pentru România\" - a declarat prof.univ.dr.

\r\nPorumbei, copii, fețe muncite de bătrâni reflectându-se în caldarâmul străzilor înguste din Istanbul sau în apele învolburate de istorie ale Bosforului. Viziunile alb-negru au fost scrise cu lumină de artistul fotograf turc Mustafa Dedeoğlu. El a căutat să surprindă imaginarul, povestea, dar mai ales frământarea unei lumi plină de farmec și simplitate. Istanbulul este chiar orașul în care s-a născut în 1978, iar pasiunea pentru fotografie este de dată relativ recentă - anii 2006. În fotografiile sale prioritare sunt compoziţia şi valoarea emoţională a imaginii. Stilul său reflectă o personalitate puternică, atrasă de magia detaliilor. Fotografiile lui Mustafa Dedeoğlu nu ne arată Istanbulul modern, ci ne duc spre străzile de la periferie, spre colţuri ascunse, neştiute ale oraşului şi spre locuitorii săi.\r\nAceste observații au fost prilejuite de organizarea expoziţiei de fotografie \"Timeless city Istanbul & faces\", la care a lucrat timp de 8 ani. Amfitrionii au fost Ambasada Republicii Turcia la București împreună cu Muzeul Naţional al Satului ,,Dimitrie Gusti” şi Filialele Bucureşti ale Uniunii Democrate Turce din România şi ale Uniunii Democrate a Tătarilor turco-musulmani din România.

Denumit ”Drumul Vinului și al Împăraților Romani pe Dunăre”, proiectul este cofinanțat de Uniunea Europeană. El își propune promovarea unor atracții turistice de pe granița de nord a Imperiului Roman, dar și al vechilor tradiții de vinificație. Printre atracțiile românești incluse în acest traseu se numără Cetățile Histria, Adamclisi, Alba Iulia și Sarmizegetusa Ulpia Traiana.\r\n\r\nDROBETA RENAȘTE PRIN POR\r\nPrimăria municipiului Drobeta Turnu Severin a obținut, prin Programul Operational Regional 2007-2013, de la Uniunea Europeană o finanțare de 14 milioane de euro pentru salvarea de la distrugere a Cetății Severinului și a Palatului cultural Teodor Costescu. Cetatea-fortăreață a fost ridicată pe malul Dunării, la 500 de metri de castrul și podul roman construit de Apollodor din Damasc. În secolul al XIX-lea a fost identificată în zonă și o cetate dacică edificată anterior, care poate fi văzută pe Columna lui Traian de la Roma.\r\n\r\nTREI INVESTIȚII PENTRU DELTA DUNĂRII\r\nMini-porturile din Delta Dunării, Murighiol, Jurilovca și Sarichioi vor fi realizate sau extinse prin instrumentul financiar european Investiții Teritorial Integrate (ITI).

Ei adoptă rapid principiile disciplină, educaţie şi muncă. Anul trecut, snooker-ul românesc a mai stabilit un record: 57 de break-uri de peste 50 de puncte, dintre care 32 au fost realizate de Andrei Orzan, recordul său şi, în acelaşi timp, recordul românesc fiind de 92 de puncte, în turneele oficiale.

El a fost ales cu 130 de voturi pentru un mandat de doi ani. Aurelian Marin, managerul general al agenţiei de turism PARADIS din Constanța, are o experiență de aproape 20 de ani în industria turismului. El este și președintele Regiunii Sud-Est a ANAT, președintele Grupului de Lucru pentru Codul de Etică, membru în Comisia de Etică și în cea de Marketing Intern. Programul său de management vizează dezvoltarea și promovarea turismului, dar și adaptarea la modul dinamic în care astăzi relaționează piețele turistice mondiale. “Am identificat o serie de probleme pe care le consider prioritare. Amintesc doar de educația în întreg angrenajul de turism respectiv unificarea partenerilor din turism într-o singură voce pentru a aduce consistență și credibilitate în demersurile făcute pe lângă autorități” - a precizat Aurelian Marin.\r\n\r\nGALĂ FASHION CU PREMII DE EXCELENȚĂ\r\n”Acasă la Brâncuși”, program al Consiliului Județean Gorj și Asociația de promovare turistică regională, ”Descoperă Râșnovul”, program coordonat de Primăria Râșnov, stațiunea Mamaia, proiectul de reabilitare a falezei din zona Cazinoului Constanța, primăria Alba Iulia pentru punerea în valoare a cetății Alba Carolina, cea mai mare de acest gen din România, hotelul Internațional din Sinaia, Restaurantul Voievodal Băneasa, grupuri sau oameni de afaceri din Italia, Israel, China ori Republica Moldova.

În acest an organizatorul nu a mai fost Federația Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR) ci Federația Asociațiilor de Promovare Turistică din România (FAPT), condusă de Corina Martin. Cea mai importantă personalitate care a onorat show-ul și Gala de la Stejarii Country Club București, a fost însă Michel Adam, creatorul și fondatorul Fashion TV. Acesta a apreciat calitatea spectacolului maraton. Noi am remarcat colecția Bird, semnată de Cătălin Botezatu, miniconcertul Andra, colecția de haine de voiaj dar și modelul lux Shooting Brake al producătorului Mercedes-Benz, prezentat în foayerul complexului Stejarii.\r\n”Premiem pentru al 5-lea an consecutiv destinații turistice de excelență din România. În acest an ne-am îndreptat atenția și spre operatorii de turism internaționali, de pe piețe strategice pentru atragerea de turiști străini în România. Am căutat să răsplătim măcar simbolic eforturile acestora de a ne promova ca destinație. Gala Turismului-2015 a arătat încă odată că industria noastră are nevoie de cât mai multe evenimente de calitate pentru a crește în vizibilitate” - a declarat Corina Martin, Președintele FAPT.

Pe aceasta va rula primul joc ce-l are ca personaj principal pe ghidul avatar Mihai, cel care va însoți turiștii virtuali în călătoriile ce le vor face în orașe, muzee, sate frumoase și alte locuri deosebite. Primele tururi au ca țintă județele Timiș (comuna Belinț), Brașov (satul Drăguș), Tulcea (Delta Dunării), Constanța (Vama Veche – 2 Mai, comuna Limanu), Arad , Oradea etc. Creatorii produsului ne-au informat că există și trasee tematice de genul Drive în România – călătorie auto, Eco România (Wild România) – în mijlocul animalelor sălbatice, respectiv Iarna în Bucovina. Ambițiosul proiect va fi disponibil pe platformele web, PC și smartphone din luna aprilie 2015. ”Credem că prin acest proiect fiecare turist, va ajunge pentru început virtual în o parte dintre cele mai frumoase locuri din România. Considerăm că promovarea patrimoniului cultural național prin intermediul tehnologiei digitale reprezintă un mare câștig pentru consumatori. Caracterul inovatic, ludic, permite realizarea unor incursiuni facile spre aceste destinații. Materializarea acestei prime etape a fost susținută de Consiliile județene Arad, Tulcea, Bacău și alți parteneri ai asociației” - ne-a mai precizat Marghiol.

\r\n\r\nSorin Dencescu, proprietarul Kron-Tour Expo Fairs & Exhibition, antreprenorul care organizează de 8 ediții acest Târg, a remarcat acest aspect în cadrul conferinței de presă. Este un lucru benefic, spunea el, că brașovenii dar și turiștii români ori străini, care vizitează această capitală turistică, au din acest an, o paletă mai largă de posibilități de petrecere a timpului liber în zonă. Au fost puse la punct circuite ale cetăților, o serie de manifestări care atrag sute de mii de consumatori - Turnirul Cetăților și Oktoberfest sunt două dintre ele -, dar au apărut și parcuri de aventură ori tematice care pun în valoare locații apropiate de orașul de sub poalele Tâmpei. Drept urmare cel mai căutat de către familiile cu copii și tineri a fost standul ”Dinoparc Râșnov” a cărui deschidere a fost anunțată pentru luna viitoare. După cum ne-a declarat Gabi Rogozea, directorul acestei investiții, avem de-a face cu un parc tematic științific amplasat în vecinătatea Cetății Rășnov. El va deține peste 50 de dinozauri realizați la mărime naturală. Printre lucrurile atipice oferite se numără cazarea în căsuțe amenajate în arbori la nivelul coroanei, dino-cinema, spectacole laser shooting, zone interactive pentru copii și, cum îi stă bine unui spațiu turistic modern, un magazin de dino-suveniruri. După cum a mai afirmat Rogozea, Parcul cu dinozauri este cel mai mare de acest gen, din estul Europei.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"3767,3768,3769,3770\"]\r\n\r\nDin cei peste 50 de participanți ne-au reținut atenția produsele - unele noi, altele repoziționate - ale unor instituții administrative precum Asociația pentru Promovarea Turismului din Oradea și Regiune. General managerul Mihai Jurca ne-a vorbit despre noul concept al promovării orașului drept Capitală a stilului baroc. În acest sens va fi demarată o campanie ce are menirea de a individualiza patrimoniul clădirilor reprezentative din punct de vedere arhitectonic. Un lanț hotelier care crește în vizibilitate este Bacolux, ce deține deja unități la Herculane (Afrodita și Diana), Craiova și Bușteni.

Blaxi Premium Resort & Hotel, și-a etalat oferta, Asociația Litoral-Delta Dunării, a venit cu numeroase pliante și informații despre viitorul sezon estival, iar lanțul Phoenicia și-a promovat noile servicii pentru familii. O prezență foarte activă a avut-o și turismul on-line, sistemul de rezervări Fireflies anunțând un regim conversațional așteptat de generația Y.\r\n\r\nVom mai aminti de Gala Festivă de la Hotelul Aro, unde a fost marcată și împlinirea a 25 de ani de activitate a grupului Kron-Tour.

Atenția noastră a fost reținută însă de dezvoltarea unor investiții în zone de agrement. Ele oferă sarea și piperul timpului liber al turistului.\r\n\r\nSorin Dencescu, proprietarul Kron-Tour Expo Fairs & Exhibition, antreprenorul care organizează de 8 ediții acest Târg, a remarcat acest aspect în cadrul conferinței de presă. Este un lucru benefic, spunea el, că brașovenii dar și turiștii români ori străini, care vizitează această capitală turistică, au din acest an, o paletă mai largă de posibilități de petrecere a timpului liber în zonă. Au fost puse la punct circuite ale cetăților, o serie de manifestări care atrag sute de mii de consumatori - Turnirul Cetăților și Oktoberfest sunt două dintre ele -, dar au apărut și parcuri de aventură ori tematice care pun în valoare locații apropiate de orașul de sub poalele Tâmpei. Drept urmare cel mai căutat de către familiile cu copii și tineri a fost standul ”Dinoparc Râșnov” a cărui deschidere a fost anunțată pentru luna viitoare. După cum ne-a declarat Gabi Rogozea, directorul acestei investiții, avem de-a face cu un parc tematic științific amplasat în vecinătatea Cetății Rășnov. El va deține peste 50 de dinozauri realizați la mărime naturală. Printre lucrurile atipice oferite se numără cazarea în căsuțe amenajate în arbori la nivelul coroanei, dino-cinema, spectacole laser shooting, zone interactive pentru copii și, cum îi stă bine unui spațiu turistic modern, un magazin de dino-suveniruri. După cum a mai afirmat Rogozea, Parcul cu dinozauri este cel mai mare de acest gen, din estul Europei.\r\n\r\nDin cei peste 50 de participanți ne-au reținut atenția produsele - unele noi, altele repoziționate - ale unor instituții administrative precum Asociația pentru Promovarea Turismului din Oradea și Regiune. General managerul Mihai Jurca ne-a vorbit despre noul concept al promovării orașului drept Capitală a stilului baroc. În acest sens va fi demarată o campanie ce are menirea de a individualiza patrimoniul clădirilor reprezentative din punct de vedere arhitectonic. Un lanț hotelier care crește în vizibilitate este Bacolux, ce deține deja unități la Herculane (Afrodita și Diana), Craiova și Bușteni. Foarte agresivă a fost din nou prezența Litoralului la Târgul de la Brașov. Blaxi Premium Resort & Hotel, și-a etalat oferta, Asociația Litoral-Delta Dunării, a venit cu numeroase pliante și informații despre viitorul sezon estival, iar lanțul Phoenicia și-a promovat noile servicii pentru familii. O prezență foarte activă a avut-o și turismul on-line, sistemul de rezervări Fireflies anunțând un regim conversațional așteptat de generația Y.\r\n\r\nVom mai aminti de Gala Festivă de la Hotelul Aro, unde a fost marcată și împlinirea a 25 de ani de activitate a grupului Kron-Tour. Ea a reflectat pentru cunoscători, o nouă tendință, mai modernă și rafinată, imprimată de specialiștii în gastronomiei ai complexului. Și, bineînțeles, vom aminti de faptul că organizatorii evenimentului au fost ANAT și Primăria Brașov, iar Amadeus și Dertour România au fost sponsorii de marcă.

Destinațiile favorite din perioada de early booking pentru vacanța din 2015 au fost: Heraklion și Chania (Creta), Rodos, Zakynthos, Corfu, la care se adaugă Antalya (Turcia).\r\nÎn 2015, Christian Tour continuă să dezvolte conceptul \"Family Moments\", un program special dedicat familiilor cu copii. Toate pachetele turistice care poartă simbolul Family Moments includ servicii All Inclusive și o mulțime de activități și facilități destinate celor mici și părinților. O altă noutate - Christian Tour lansează în acest an 2 chartere care vor pleca din Chișinău către Insulele Creta şi Mallorca. Creșterea numărului de agenții proprii va continua cu deschiderea a încă 2 sedii în București. De asemenea managementul firmei dorește să fondeze și o Școală de Turism, menită să dezvolte capacitățile practice ale tinerilor ce vor opta pentru acest domeniu.\r\n”Pentru 2015, Christian Tour își propune să ajungă la vânzări în valoare de 63 de milioane de euro (comparativ cu 52 de milioane în 2014, respectiv 45 de milioane în 2013) și ca numărul de turiști care beneficiază de serviciile oferite de agenție să se ridice la 230.000 (față de 180.000 în 2014). De altfel Grecia a crescut în vânzările noastre cu circa 20% în fiecare an” - a declarat, în cadrul unei conferințe de presă, Marius Pandel, CEO Christian Tour.\r\nAnul trecut compania de travel a dezvoltat și segmentul de turism online, prin lansarea site-ului de bilete de avion – www.vuelo.ro . Proiectul se bucură de mare interes din partea turiștilor. De aceea compania a decis să investească în dezvoltarea platformei online și în 2015. Christian Tour pregăteşte şi lansarea unui proiect inedit pentru turism intern. Agenția și-a propus promovarea intensă a vacanțelor în România, “un tărâm spectaculos, cu foarte multe obiective turistice de vizitat şi o ţară de care merită sa fim mândri şi să o promovăm” - consideră Marius Pandel.\r\n\r\nReferindu-se la gradul de ocupare a curselor charter de anul trecut Marius Pandel a mai precizat că pentru cele 42 de chartere săptămânale s-a înregistrat o încărcare de circa 95%. Același grad de ocupare l-a avut pe tot sezonul și hotelul de 4 stele Memento Kassioppi Resort. Complexul este singurul hotel românesc din Insula Corfu, deținut de Christian Tour, hotel frecventat de turiștii români, dar și de către britanici, polonezi, cehi, scandinavi etc. Vacanțele Senior Voyage s-au dovedit foarte populare, aproximativ 12.000 de turiști achiziționând pachete dedicate în principal seniorilor.\r\nMarius, conduce firma împreună cu fratele său Cristian Pandel.

\r\nUna dintre primele agenții de turism private din România J’Info Tours a aniversat 25 de ani de la înființare. De-a lungul acestor decenii compania a oferit servicii pentru peste 3 milioane de clienți, individuali, grupuri, corporate, misiuni economice. ”Tot timpul am fost preocupați să construim și să consolidăm un brand ce a crescut prin valoarea adăugată a serviciilor, am urmărit un plan de afaceri sustenabil care ne menţine profitabili de 25 de ani, am revoluţionat turismul românesc prin lansarea unor produse inovative care au creat o adevarată modă: Viva Spania, Bella Italia, Pe urmele lui Gaudi şi Dali, Safari în Kenya, Lumea lui Darwin, Galapagos ori Venezuela” - a declarat Carmen Pavel, directorul general al J’Info Tours.\r\nÎncepând cu anul 2000, firma a devenit singurul partener din România ai HRG ( Hogg Robinson Group) – una dintre primele trei companii de management al călătoriilor din lume. Astfel, turismul de afaceri a ajuns să reprezintă mai mult de 65% din cifra de afaceri a agenției J’Info Tours. În cursul anului 2014 J’Info Tours a devenit consolidator pe piața vânzării biletelor de avion în Europa de Est, pentru un important GDS (Global Distribution System). ”Din acest an am început implementarea unei performante platforme de vânzare de bilete de avion, cazări, pachete servicii turistice, circuite, sejururi charter, asigurări turistice medicale, croaziere, închirieri maşini, activități, bilete la spectacole şi evenimente, care va deveni complet oprațională B2B şi B2C, către public şi respectiv parteneri până la sfârşitul anului” - a mai anunțat liderul J’Info Tours.\r\nÎn ultimii ani compania a investit în mai multe proprietăți de cazare creându-și propria bază de turism la Snagov, Zamora-Poiana Ţapului şi Şimon-Bran.\r\nALEX BARBU\r\n\r\nBUTNARU: ”Mizăm pe creșterea circulației și prelungirea sezonului estival!”\r\n![\"Mesek](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Mesek-Wings-parteneri.jpg\")
\r\n\r\n\r\nMeshek Wings, care se află de 3 ani consecutiv în Top 10 touroperatori din Israel, a anunțat că prognozele sale pentru 2014 au fost depășite de rezultate. În 2014, aceştia au adus circa 18.000 de turişti israelieni în România, dintre care 15.000 cu compania aeriană Blue Air şi 3.000 cu TAROM. “Litoralul românesc s-a ridicat la aşteptările turiştilor care au fost mulţumiţi de calitatea produsului. Dacă în 2014 am organizat o cursă charter pe săptămână pe relaţia Tel Aviv – Constanţa, în acest an vom organiza două zboruri săptămânale către Constanţa, tot cu compania Blue Air. Riviera românească are potenţial. Am riscat, am investit, iar la ora actuală pot spune că suntem cel mai important touroperator de incoming pentru România care derulează curse charter şi asigură programe tip sejur” - a afirmat Meidan Butnaru, director comercial Meshek Wings Tours Ltd.\r\nProdusul “Litoralul românesc” s-a bucurat de succes pe piaţa israeliană, zborurile continuând până la începutul lunii septembrie şi aducând circa 2000 de turişti. De asemenea în perioada mai – august 2014, touroperatorul israelian aducea circa 6000 de turişti în Bucureşti, pentru programe gen city break.

Christian Tour pregăteşte şi lansarea unui proiect inedit pentru turism intern.

Astfel, turismul de afaceri a ajuns să reprezintă mai mult de 65% din cifra de afaceri a agenției J’Info Tours. În cursul anului 2014 J’Info Tours a devenit consolidator pe piața vânzării biletelor de avion în Europa de Est, pentru un important GDS (Global Distribution System). ”Din acest an am început implementarea unei performante platforme de vânzare de bilete de avion, cazări, pachete servicii turistice, circuite, sejururi charter, asigurări turistice medicale, croaziere, închirieri maşini, activități, bilete la spectacole şi evenimente, care va deveni complet oprațională B2B şi B2C, către public şi respectiv parteneri până la sfârşitul anului” - a mai anunțat liderul J’Info Tours.\r\nÎn ultimii ani compania a investit în mai multe proprietăți de cazare creându-și propria bază de turism la Snagov, Zamora-Poiana Ţapului şi Şimon-Bran.\r\nALEX BARBU\r\n\r\nBUTNARU: ”Mizăm pe creșterea circulației și prelungirea sezonului estival!”\r\n\r\nMeshek Wings, care se află de 3 ani consecutiv în Top 10 touroperatori din Israel, a anunțat că prognozele sale pentru 2014 au fost depășite de rezultate.

Dacă în 2014 am organizat o cursă charter pe săptămână pe relaţia Tel Aviv – Constanţa, în acest an vom organiza două zboruri săptămânale către Constanţa, tot cu compania Blue Air. Riviera românească are potenţial. Am riscat, am investit, iar la ora actuală pot spune că suntem cel mai important touroperator de incoming pentru România care derulează curse charter şi asigură programe tip sejur” - a afirmat Meidan Butnaru, director comercial Meshek Wings Tours Ltd.\r\nProdusul “Litoralul românesc” s-a bucurat de succes pe piaţa israeliană, zborurile continuând până la începutul lunii septembrie şi aducând circa 2000 de turişti.

The black and white pictures belong to the Turkish photographer Mustafa Dedeoğlu. His whish was to capture with his camera the imaginary world, the story behind it, but more than that the torment of a life full of charm and simplicity. Istanbul is the city where he was born in 1978, photography being a young passion that started somewhere in 2006. A part of his photos, from the last eight years of working with the camera, where exhibited in March at the National Village Museum ,,Dimitrie Gusti” in Bucharest, under the title \"Timeless city Istanbul & faces\".

Am căutat să răsplătim măcar simbolic eforturile acestora de a ne promova ca destinație.

Viziunile alb-negru au fost scrise cu lumină de artistul fotograf turc Mustafa Dedeoğlu. El a căutat să surprindă imaginarul, povestea, dar mai ales frământarea unei lumi plină de farmec și simplitate. Istanbulul este chiar orașul în care s-a născut în 1978, iar pasiunea pentru fotografie este de dată relativ recentă - anii 2006. În fotografiile sale prioritare sunt compoziţia şi valoarea emoţională a imaginii. Stilul său reflectă o personalitate puternică, atrasă de magia detaliilor. Fotografiile lui Mustafa Dedeoğlu nu ne arată Istanbulul modern, ci ne duc spre străzile de la periferie, spre colţuri ascunse, neştiute ale oraşului şi spre locuitorii săi.\nAceste observații au fost prilejuite de organizarea expoziţiei de fotografie \"Timeless city Istanbul & faces\", la care a lucrat timp de 8 ani. Amfitrionii au fost Ambasada Republicii Turcia la București împreună cu Muzeul Naţional al Satului ,,Dimitrie Gusti” şi Filialele Bucureşti ale Uniunii Democrate Turce din România şi ale Uniunii Democrate a Tătarilor turco-musulmani din România.

Evenimentul va avea loc între 17 şi 26 iulie 2015, la Complexul hotelier Caro, partener tradiţional al snooker-ului românesc şi unul dintre susţinătorii Federaţiei Române de Snooker.\r\nEvenimentul va reuni circa 150 de participanţi la cele două categorii, feminin şi masculin, din peste 50 de ţări (Australia, SUA, Brazilia, Canada, Austria, Olanda, Anglia, Irlanda de Nord, Germania, Bulgaria, Polonia, Rusia, Japonia, China, Africa de Sud, Qatar, Australia etc.). La Bucureşti vor veni şi 26 de arbitri internaţionali. Campionatul va fi deschis publicului. Evenimentul va avea și o importanţă turistică. Participanţii şi suporteri vor putea să se familiarizeze cu Bucureştiul şi împrejurimile sale - a declarat în cadrul unei conferințe de presă, Raluca Repanovici, managing partner Innovation Travel.\r\n„Este primul campionat mondial de snooker U21 organizat în România şi, pe de altă parte, al doilea campionat mondial de snooker U21 organizat în Europa în ultimii 10 ani, ultimul având loc în 2010 în Irlanda. Experienţa noastră în organizarea a 4 campionate europene de snooker în România, în 2006, la Constanţa, respectiv în 2010 şi în 2014 (dublu campionat), în Bucureşti, a constituit o importantă carte de vizită”, a precizat Francisc Tobă, preşedintele FRS. “Juniorii promit cel mai mult. Ei adoptă rapid principiile disciplină, educaţie şi muncă. Anul trecut, snooker-ul românesc a mai stabilit un record: 57 de break-uri de peste 50 de puncte, dintre care 32 au fost realizate de Andrei Orzan, recordul său şi, în acelaşi timp, recordul românesc fiind de 92 de puncte, în turneele oficiale. Sunt sigur că sportivii noștri vor lupta pentru obţinerea unor poziţii cât mai bune în clasamentul final” - a subliniat Dragoş Cozmaciuc, antrenor federal în cadrul FRS.

Tema - ”Întâlniri remarcabile – Diavolii de mare din Socorro”. Expoziția, reunește 28 de lucrări, parte din fotografiile făcute în timpul expediției în insulele Socorro din Mexic, la care au participat membrii ai WEPA România. SOCORRO 2015, care a contribuit la identificarea unui număr de 11 diavoli de mare, printre care unul în premieră -, a avut ca scop familiarizarea publicul larg cu peisajele subacvatice splendide, cu diavoli de mare ( Manta Biostris). Materialele au fost donate către Pacific Manta Research Group, o asociație care monitorizează specia de mai mult de 30 de ani. Până în prezent sunt cunoscute 464 de exemplare de Manta Biostris. Dintre acestea, doar 160 de exemplare au fost văzute de mai multe ori în arealul rezervației.\r\nExpoziția ”Întâlniri remarcabile – Diavolii de mare din Socorro” se bucură de o mare audiență. Inaugurarea a fost onorată de E.S. Agustin Gutierrez Canet, Ambasadorul Mexicului în România, Luis Ovidiu Popa, Directorul general al Muzeului Național de Istorie Naturală ”Grigore Antipa” dar și de cîteva sute de invitați.

CONSTANTINESCU)\r\n\r\nANAT ARE UN NOU PREȘEDINTE \r\n Aurelian Marin este noul președinte al Asociației Naționale a Agențiilor de Turism (ANAT). El a fost ales cu 130 de voturi pentru un mandat de doi ani. Aurelian Marin, managerul general al agenţiei de turism PARADIS din Constanța, are o experiență de aproape 20 de ani în industria turismului. El este și președintele Regiunii Sud-Est a ANAT, președintele Grupului de Lucru pentru Codul de Etică, membru în Comisia de Etică și în cea de Marketing Intern. Programul său de management vizează dezvoltarea și promovarea turismului, dar și adaptarea la modul dinamic în care astăzi relaționează piețele turistice mondiale. “Am identificat o serie de probleme pe care le consider prioritare. Amintesc doar de educația în întreg angrenajul de turism respectiv unificarea partenerilor din turism într-o singură voce pentru a aduce consistență și credibilitate în demersurile făcute pe lângă autorități” - a precizat Aurelian Marin.\r\n\r\nGALĂ FASHION CU PREMII DE EXCELENȚĂ\r\n\r\n”Acasă la Brâncuși”, program al Consiliului Județean Gorj și Asociația de promovare turistică regională, ”Descoperă Râșnovul”, program coordonat de Primăria Râșnov, stațiunea Mamaia, proiectul de reabilitare a falezei din zona Cazinoului Constanța, primăria Alba Iulia pentru punerea în valoare a cetății Alba Carolina, cea mai mare de acest gen din România, hotelul Internațional din Sinaia, Restaurantul Voievodal Băneasa, grupuri sau oameni de afaceri din Italia, Israel, China ori Republica Moldova. Acestea au fost câțiva dintre premianții celei de-a V-a Ediții a Galei Turismului Românesc care și-a propus să premieze excelența în domeniu. Parteneriatul cu Fashion TV România - în calitate de producător de evenimente a cunoscut o schimbare de conținut. În acest an organizatorul nu a mai fost Federația Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR) ci Federația Asociațiilor de Promovare Turistică din România (FAPT), condusă de Corina Martin.\r\n\r\nCea mai importantă personalitate care a onorat show-ul și Gala de la Stejarii Country Club București, a fost însă Michel Adam, creatorul și fondatorul Fashion TV. Acesta a apreciat calitatea spectacolului maraton. Noi am remarcat colecția Bird, semnată de Cătălin Botezatu, miniconcertul Andra, colecția de haine de voiaj dar și modelul lux Shooting Brake al producătorului Mercedes-Benz, prezentat în foayerul complexului Stejarii.\r\n”Premiem pentru al 5-lea an consecutiv destinații turistice de excelență din România. În acest an ne-am îndreptat atenția și spre operatorii de turism internaționali, de pe piețe strategice pentru atragerea de turiști străini în România. Am căutat să răsplătim măcar simbolic eforturile acestora de a ne promova ca destinație. Gala Turismului-2015 a arătat încă odată că industria noastră are nevoie de cât mai multe evenimente de calitate pentru a crește în vizibilitate” - a declarat Corina Martin, Președintele FAPT. (VASILE COSTRUȘ)\r\n\r\nPLAI ROMANIA merge pe mâna lui MIHAI\r\n\r\nUn proiect unic în Europa, susține Nicolae Marghiol, președintele Asociației Cele mai Frumoase Sate din România (AFSR), a fost lansat cu puțină vreme în urmă la cinematograful Muzeului Țăranului Român. El poartă numele Plai Romania și își propune prin intermediul unei platforme on-line să promoveze o parte dintre atracțiile țării noastre. Pe aceasta va rula primul joc ce-l are ca personaj principal pe ghidul avatar Mihai, cel care va însoți turiștii virtuali în călătoriile ce le vor face în orașe, muzee, sate frumoase și alte locuri deosebite. Primele tururi au ca țintă județele Timiș (comuna Belinț), Brașov (satul Drăguș), Tulcea (Delta Dunării), Constanța (Vama Veche – 2 Mai, comuna Limanu), Arad , Oradea etc. Creatorii produsului ne-au informat că există și trasee tematice de genul Drive în România – călătorie auto, Eco România (Wild România) – în mijlocul animalelor sălbatice, respectiv Iarna în Bucovina. Ambițiosul proiect va fi disponibil pe platformele web, PC și smartphone din luna aprilie 2015. ”Credem că prin acest proiect fiecare turist, va ajunge pentru început virtual în o parte dintre cele mai frumoase locuri din România. Considerăm că promovarea patrimoniului cultural național prin intermediul tehnologiei digitale reprezintă un mare câștig pentru consumatori. Caracterul inovatic, ludic, permite realizarea unor incursiuni facile spre aceste destinații. Materializarea acestei prime etape a fost susținută de Consiliile județene Arad, Tulcea, Bacău și alți parteneri ai asociației” - ne-a mai precizat Marghiol.

Valoarea estimată a proiectului este de 972.500 de euro, din care contribuția ANT este de 750.000 de euro, iar cea a postului de televiziune National Geographic, de 222.500 de euro. În principiu este vorba de un film de 45 de minute și 4 spoturi de 30 secunde. ANT a precizat că documentarul ce va fi realizat pentru promovarea cu precădere a Bucureștiului ca destinație „smart” de city- break împreuna cu spoturile de promovare au rolul de a aborda atât partea mai puțin cunoscută a orașului din punct de vedere al istoriei, al vieții culturale, artistice etc. Conceptul „Smart Cities” presupune realizarea a câte unui film pentru 18 orașe europene relevante, considerate a deține cel mai mare potențial de creștere în următorii ani. Producțiile vor fi difuzate în Germania, Franța, Italia, Marea Britanie, Rusia și România, ca piețe țintă, precum și în Spania, Polonia, Abu Dhabi și India, ca piețe de oportunitate.\r\n\r\nEXPOZIȚIE CU LUCRĂRI ALE ȘCOLII DE LA TUNIS.\r\nLa Muzeul Național Cotroceni din București a fost deschisă expoziția de pictură cu titlul ”L’Ecole de Tunis”. Ea reunește o selecție de tablouri semnate de pictori tunisieni ai secolului 20, ce fac parte din acest curent artistic figurativ apărut după cel ce-al Doilea Război Mondial, ce reunește artiști de diverse origini. Tablourile expuse sunt semnat de Pierre Boucherle, Jules Lellouche, Moses Levy, Ali Bellagha, Jalel Ben Abdallah, Brahim Dahak, Safia Farhat, Abdelaziz Gorgi, Hedi Turki, Zoubeir Turki, Yaha Turki, Aly Ben Salem, Ammar Farhat etc. Evenimentul, organizat de către Ambasada Republicii Tunisiene în România, a beneficiat de sprijinul Organizației Internaționale a Francofoniei (OIF) și al Universității Naționale de Muzică din București (UNMB), în cadrul sărbătoririi lunii Francofoniei de către GADIF (Grupul Ambasadelor, Delegațiilor, Instituțiilor Francophone).\r\n\r\nS-A ÎNFIINȚAT ORGANIZAȚIA DE MARKETING ÎN TURISM DIN ROMÂNIA\r\nOMTR își propune sa devina o entitate reprezentativă pentru revigorarea, dezvoltarea şi promovarea turismului românesc. Asociația este formată din specialişti în domeniu sau din sectoare adiacente dar și din oameni de afaceri de succes. Printre obiectivele noii organizații se numără promovarea limbajului de specialitate, elaborarea unor studii de marketing, realizarea unor studii de formare/ consolidare/ repoziționare a imaginii produsului turistic românesc, elaborarea unor planuri de marketing specifice și a unor programe de promovare aplicate. „Dorim ca OMTR să devină furnizor de experiență în vederea revigorării, dezvoltării susținute și, implicit, promovării turismului românesc de către fiecare pentru fiecare și împreună pentru România\" - a declarat prof.univ.dr.

Viziunile alb-negru au fost scrise cu lumină de artistul fotograf turc Mustafa Dedeoğlu. El a căutat să surprindă imaginarul, povestea, dar mai ales frământarea unei lumi plină de farmec și simplitate. Istanbulul este chiar orașul în care s-a născut în 1978, iar pasiunea pentru fotografie este de dată relativ recentă - anii 2006. În fotografiile sale prioritare sunt compoziţia şi valoarea emoţională a imaginii. Stilul său reflectă o personalitate puternică, atrasă de magia detaliilor. Fotografiile lui Mustafa Dedeoğlu nu ne arată Istanbulul modern, ci ne duc spre străzile de la periferie, spre colţuri ascunse, neştiute ale oraşului şi spre locuitorii săi.\r\nAceste observații au fost prilejuite de organizarea expoziţiei de fotografie \"Timeless city Istanbul & faces\", la care a lucrat timp de 8 ani. Amfitrionii au fost Ambasada Republicii Turcia la București împreună cu Muzeul Naţional al Satului ,,Dimitrie Gusti” şi Filialele Bucureşti ale Uniunii Democrate Turce din România şi ale Uniunii Democrate a Tătarilor turco-musulmani din România. (ALEX BARBU, FOTO: VASILE COSTRUȘ)\r\n\r\nTRASEU CULTURAL CU VINURI ȘI ÎMPĂRAȚI\r\nOrganizația internațională Danube Competence Centre, cu sediul la Belgrad, a lansat un nou traseu cultural european. El include 20 de situri arheologice și 12 regiuni viticole din România, Croația, Serbia și Bulgaria. Denumit ”Drumul Vinului și al Împăraților Romani pe Dunăre”, proiectul este cofinanțat de Uniunea Europeană. El își propune promovarea unor atracții turistice de pe granița de nord a Imperiului Roman, dar și al vechilor tradiții de vinificație. Printre atracțiile românești incluse în acest traseu se numără Cetățile Histria, Adamclisi, Alba Iulia și Sarmizegetusa Ulpia Traiana.\r\n\r\nDROBETA RENAȘTE PRIN POR\r\nPrimăria municipiului Drobeta Turnu Severin a obținut, prin Programul Operational Regional 2007-2013, de la Uniunea Europeană o finanțare de 14 milioane de euro pentru salvarea de la distrugere a Cetății Severinului și a Palatului cultural Teodor Costescu. Cetatea-fortăreață a fost ridicată pe malul Dunării, la 500 de metri de castrul și podul roman construit de Apollodor din Damasc. În secolul al XIX-lea a fost identificată în zonă și o cetate dacică edificată anterior, care poate fi văzută pe Columna lui Traian de la Roma.\r\n\r\nTREI INVESTIȚII PENTRU DELTA DUNĂRII\r\nMini-porturile din Delta Dunării, Murighiol, Jurilovca și Sarichioi vor fi realizate sau extinse prin instrumentul financiar european Investiții Teritorial Integrate (ITI). Conform oficialilor Consiliului Județean Tulcea, cele trei investiții fac parte din Strategia de dezvoltare integrată a Deltei Dunarii și vor fi finanțate prin intermediul Asociației de Dezvoltare Intercomunitară ITI-Delta Dunării, înființată recent. Realizarea investițiilor se va face în cadrul unui parteneriat public-privat. Lucrările de amenajare a infrastructurii portuare din Murighiol au o valoarea totală de 10.759.000 de euro, cele de la Sarichioi, ce vor crea 155 de locuri de acostare pentru ambarcatiuni - vor fi de 6,2 milioane de euro, iar infrastructura de primire a ambarcațiunilor de la Jurilovca, va fi extinsă de la 80, în prezent, la 250 de locuri.\r\n\r\nCELE MAI ACCESIBILE ORAȘE\r\nÎntr-un top realizat de către site-ul Trivago, Brașovul și Sibiul se numără printre cele mai avantajoase destinații la nivel mondial din 2015, aflându-se pe locul 13, și respectiv 18.

Atenția noastră a fost reținută însă de dezvoltarea unor investiții în zone de agrement. Ele oferă sarea și piperul timpului liber al turistului.\n\n\nSorin Dencescu, proprietarul Kron-Tour Expo Fairs & Exhibition, antreprenorul care organizează de 8 ediții acest Târg, a remarcat acest aspect în cadrul conferinței de presă. Este un lucru benefic, spunea el, că brașovenii dar și turiștii români ori străini, care vizitează această capitală turistică, au din acest an, o paletă mai largă de posibilități de petrecere a timpului liber în zonă. Au fost puse la punct circuite ale cetăților, o serie de manifestări care atrag sute de mii de consumatori - Turnirul Cetăților și Oktoberfest sunt două dintre ele -, dar au apărut și parcuri de aventură ori tematice care pun în valoare locații apropiate de orașul de sub poalele Tâmpei. Drept urmare cel mai căutat de către familiile cu copii și tineri a fost standul ”Dinoparc Râșnov” a cărui deschidere a fost anunțată pentru luna viitoare. După cum ne-a declarat Gabi Rogozea, directorul acestei investiții, avem de-a face cu un parc tematic științific amplasat în vecinătatea Cetății Rășnov. El va deține peste 50 de dinozauri realizați la mărime naturală. Printre lucrurile atipice oferite se numără cazarea în căsuțe amenajate în arbori la nivelul coroanei, dino-cinema, spectacole laser shooting, zone interactive pentru copii și, cum îi stă bine unui spațiu turistic modern, un magazin de dino-suveniruri. După cum a mai afirmat Rogozea, Parcul cu dinozauri este cel mai mare de acest gen, din estul Europei.\n\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"3767,3768,3769,3770\"]\n\nDin cei peste 50 de participanți ne-au reținut atenția produsele - unele noi, altele repoziționate - ale unor instituții administrative precum Asociația pentru Promovarea Turismului din Oradea și Regiune. General managerul Mihai Jurca ne-a vorbit despre noul concept al promovării orașului drept Capitală a stilului baroc. În acest sens va fi demarată o campanie ce are menirea de a individualiza patrimoniul clădirilor reprezentative din punct de vedere arhitectonic. Un lanț hotelier care crește în vizibilitate este Bacolux, ce deține deja unități la Herculane (Afrodita și Diana), Craiova și Bușteni. Foarte agresivă a fost din nou prezența Litoralului la Târgul de la Brașov. Blaxi Premium Resort & Hotel, și-a etalat oferta, Asociația Litoral-Delta Dunării, a venit cu numeroase pliante și informații despre viitorul sezon estival, iar lanțul Phoenicia și-a promovat noile servicii pentru familii. O prezență foarte activă a avut-o și turismul on-line, sistemul de rezervări Fireflies anunțând un regim conversațional așteptat de generația Y.\n\nVom mai aminti de Gala Festivă de la Hotelul Aro, unde a fost marcată și împlinirea a 25 de ani de activitate a grupului Kron-Tour.

Atenția noastră a fost reținută însă de dezvoltarea unor investiții în zone de agrement. Ele oferă sarea și piperul timpului liber al turistului.\r\n\r\n\r\nSorin Dencescu, proprietarul Kron-Tour Expo Fairs & Exhibition, antreprenorul care organizează de 8 ediții acest Târg, a remarcat acest aspect în cadrul conferinței de presă. Este un lucru benefic, spunea el, că brașovenii dar și turiștii români ori străini, care vizitează această capitală turistică, au din acest an, o paletă mai largă de posibilități de petrecere a timpului liber în zonă. Au fost puse la punct circuite ale cetăților, o serie de manifestări care atrag sute de mii de consumatori - Turnirul Cetăților și Oktoberfest sunt două dintre ele -, dar au apărut și parcuri de aventură ori tematice care pun în valoare locații apropiate de orașul de sub poalele Tâmpei. Drept urmare cel mai căutat de către familiile cu copii și tineri a fost standul ”Dinoparc Râșnov” a cărui deschidere a fost anunțată pentru luna viitoare. După cum ne-a declarat Gabi Rogozea, directorul acestei investiții, avem de-a face cu un parc tematic științific amplasat în vecinătatea Cetății Rășnov. El va deține peste 50 de dinozauri realizați la mărime naturală. Printre lucrurile atipice oferite se numără cazarea în căsuțe amenajate în arbori la nivelul coroanei, dino-cinema, spectacole laser shooting, zone interactive pentru copii și, cum îi stă bine unui spațiu turistic modern, un magazin de dino-suveniruri. După cum a mai afirmat Rogozea, Parcul cu dinozauri este cel mai mare de acest gen, din estul Europei.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"3767,3768,3769,3770\"]\r\n\r\nDin cei peste 50 de participanți ne-au reținut atenția produsele - unele noi, altele repoziționate - ale unor instituții administrative precum Asociația pentru Promovarea Turismului din Oradea și Regiune. General managerul Mihai Jurca ne-a vorbit despre noul concept al promovării orașului drept Capitală a stilului baroc. În acest sens va fi demarată o campanie ce are menirea de a individualiza patrimoniul clădirilor reprezentative din punct de vedere arhitectonic. Un lanț hotelier care crește în vizibilitate este Bacolux, ce deține deja unități la Herculane (Afrodita și Diana), Craiova și Bușteni. Foarte agresivă a fost din nou prezența Litoralului la Târgul de la Brașov. Blaxi Premium Resort & Hotel, și-a etalat oferta, Asociația Litoral-Delta Dunării, a venit cu numeroase pliante și informații despre viitorul sezon estival, iar lanțul Phoenicia și-a promovat noile servicii pentru familii. O prezență foarte activă a avut-o și turismul on-line, sistemul de rezervări Fireflies anunțând un regim conversațional așteptat de generația Y.\r\n\r\nVom mai aminti de Gala Festivă de la Hotelul Aro, unde a fost marcată și împlinirea a 25 de ani de activitate a grupului Kron-Tour. Ea a reflectat pentru cunoscători, o nouă tendință, mai modernă și rafinată, imprimată de specialiștii în gastronomiei ai complexului. Și, bineînțeles, vom aminti de faptul că organizatorii evenimentului au fost ANAT și Primăria Brașov, iar Amadeus și Dertour România au fost sponsorii de marcă.

Sejururi cu nave de croaziere pentru grupuri, organizate în Marea Nordului, Marea Baltică sau Marea Arabiei. Destinațiile favorite din perioada de early booking pentru vacanța din 2015 au fost: Heraklion și Chania (Creta), Rodos, Zakynthos, Corfu, la care se adaugă Antalya (Turcia).\nÎn 2015, Christian Tour continuă să dezvolte conceptul \"Family Moments\", un program special dedicat familiilor cu copii. Toate pachetele turistice care poartă simbolul Family Moments includ servicii All Inclusive și o mulțime de activități și facilități destinate celor mici și părinților. O altă noutate - Christian Tour lansează în acest an 2 chartere care vor pleca din Chișinău către Insulele Creta şi Mallorca.

Există chiar sub ochii noștri posibilități generoase de recuperare a banilor deturnați ori neimpozitați de la stat. Da, banii, ăia acoperiți prin contracte de sponsorizare politică. Da, banii aceia care au alunecat cu viteză prin tubulatura comisioanelor la afaceri în care unii oameni politici îmbârligați cu businessmani, nu au participat nici măcar cu 1 euro.\r\n\r\nConform unor studii de piață în România sunt scoase la vânzare circa 100 de hoteluri. Statul român ar putea să cumpere vreo 2-3, cu capacități corespunzătoare de 150-200 de camere -, pe care să le renoveze și să le transforme în domicilii forțate. De 4 și 5 stele. Unul la mare, unul la munte și altul într-o stațiune balneară. Astfel închisorile sufocate de atâta înghesuială, și-ar reduce costurile cu mâncarea și întreținerea acestor deținuți de lux, care culmea ironiei, halesc tot din banii statului.\r\n\r\n\r\nCe să facă statul cu aceste hoteluri??? Păi să le transforme, să le amenajeze ca variantă pentru arest și arest la domiciliu. Asa s-ar introduce un nou termen: arestul la hotel! Spații păzite, dar plătite zilnic sub formă de cazare și masă. Desigur, dacă unii deținuți vor dori, se vor putea înscrie și la varianta... all inclusive. Acționarii hotelurilor ar putea fi ANI și DNA-ul cu câte 50% fiecare. ANI ar acoperi serviciile de transport și travel iar DNA partea de ”operare” hotelieră. Pentru a se recupera mai cu ritm din sumele furate, prețul unei camere cu serviciile incluse ar putea varia, în funcție de confort, între 500 și 1500 de euro pe...zi. Astfel, după scăderea TVA-ului, a costurilor de întreținere și salariilor angajaților, ar putea să rămână curați vreo 300.000 de euro de deținut pe an. Dacă ar executa pedepse cuprinse între 2 și 10 ani de exemplu, statul ar putea introduce în circuitul curat bani fiscalizați extrași din mâlul unei lumi murdare dar plină de aroganță și tupeu. Ar fi ceva, nu?\r\n\r\nDar ar apărea și alte efecte cu impact major! Ar crește gradul de ocupare în industria turistică. Cu un grad de 100% DNA și ANI ar deveni cele mai premiate companii de turism. Institutul Național de Statistică ar raporta în sfârșit o majorare substanțială a încasărilor din turism la bugetul de stat, iar contribuția turismului la PIB-ul românesc ar trece ușor de 5-6%. Unități de cazare ar fi în permanență pline, căci ele vor funcționa indiferent de sezoane și anotimpuri. Iar deținuții nu vor mai avea motive să se plângă cum că n-au condiții să-și scrie cărțile vieții lor.\r\n\r\nDesigur, nu se putea să nu apară și o întrebare timidă, din rândul publicului! Și dacă nu au săracii posibilitatea să plătească??? Ei, ați înțeles, omul a vrut să facă o glumiță! Așa a citit el că se întâmpla prin scrierile lui Ilf și Petrov.','ANI Travel, DNA Hotels și arestul...

Prin intermediul frecvenţei zilnice suplimentare extindem oferta pentru călători dinspre şi către Bucureşti.

Dar la faima locului a contribuit și Saint Louis - care, spune legenda, venit aici în timpul războiului s-a îndrăgostit de o prințesă berberă.

Puteți încerca și dumneavoastră, în timp ce veți mai afla de la ghidul ce vă însoțește că mai există și un baron pe nume Rodolphe d’Enlarger, care fascinat de magia locului a construit o vilă extravagantă (între 1912-1922), care găzduiește azi Centrul de muzică arabă și mediteraniană.

Acum localnicii sunt mândri că au găzduit personalități precum François-René de Chateaubriand, Gustave Flaubert, Alphonse de Lamartine, André Gide, Simone de Beauvoir, Michel Foucault, Paul Klee. Unii dintre ei au locuit în casele din partea veche a Sidi Bou Saidului ce se remarcă printr-o armonioasă îmbinare a arhitecturii arabe cu cea andaluză.

După ce v-ați umplut de cultură și v-ați cam săturat de shopping, cel mai mare răsfăț vi-l asigură o cafea bună sau un ceai verde, răcoritor, băute aproape de cer, deasupra Portului Sidi Bou Said. Cele mai căutate, pentru că pe aici trec aproape toate rutele turistice, sunt panoramele cu care te delectezi de la \"Café des Nattes\", sau în drumul spre far la faimoasa cafenea \"Sidi Chebaane\". În mod sigur vei afla despre ”Café des Nattes”, că a fost sursă de inspirație pentru tabloul “Cafeneaua maură” realizat de pictorul expresionist August Macke.

După ce v-ați umplut de cultură și v-ați cam săturat de shopping, cel mai mare răsfăț vi-l asigură o cafea bună sau un ceai verde, răcoritor, băute aproape de cer, deasupra Portului Sidi Bou Said. Cele mai căutate, pentru că pe aici trec aproape toate rutele turistice, sunt panoramele cu care te delectezi de la \"Café des Nattes\", sau în drumul spre far la faimoasa cafenea \"Sidi Chebaane\". În mod sigur vei afla despre ”Café des Nattes”, că a fost sursă de inspirație pentru tabloul “Cafeneaua maură” realizat de pictorul expresionist August Macke. Ea mai e cunoscută în toată lumea și grație melodiei lui Patrick Bruel „Au café des délices”. Mări de smarald, muntele Bou Kornine și plajele sudice de la Mediterană.

Expoziția va fi inaugurată la 1 Mai și va dura până pe 31 Octombrie 2015. Organizatorii se așteaptă ca această manifestare să atragă peste 20 de milioane de vizitatori din întreaga lume. Într-o conferință de presă susținută la București Marco Rottino (country manager România & Moldova Alitalia) a anunțat că transportatorii Alitalia și Etihad Airways sunt companiile aeriene oficiale ale EXPO Milano 2015 și că ele vor facilita publicului român, în cadrul programului ”Connecting the World”, un foarte bun acces la eveniment prin suplimentarea zborurilor și bilete cu prețuri speciale către orașul italian. La rândul său Georgian Ghervasie, comisarul general al țării noastre la Expo Milano a declarat că România și-a propus să evidențeze în Pavilionul național, tradițiile, creativitatea, inovația și autenticitatea destinației turistice.\r\n\r\nCELE MAI ACCESIBILE ORAȘE\r\nÎntr-un top realizat de către site-ul Trivago, Brașovul și Sibiul se numără printre cele mai avantajoase destinații la nivel mondial din 2015, aflându-se pe locul 13, și respectiv 18. Indicele oferă o listă cu cele mai accesibile 100 de orașe ce trebuie explorate în 2015, atât pe baza prețului mediu anual pe noapte, pentru o cameră standard, cât și a reputației hotelurilor din zonă. În ceea ce privește clasamentul la nivel european, Bosnia, Herțegovina, Serbia, Bulgaria și Ungaria se prezintă drept cele mai convenabile destinații pentru acest an.\r\n\r\n\r\n8,7 MILIOANE DE EURO PENTRU CETĂȚILE DACICE\r\nLa această sumă se ridică programul de modernizare a drumurilor de acces către cetățile dacice. Proiectul, ce va fi derulat de către Consiliul Județean Hunedoara, are în vedere integrarea celor șase cetăți într-un circuit cultural și istoric european. Ansamblul din Munții Orăștiei este format din cetățile ce fac parte din patrimoniul UNESCO: Sarmizegetusa Regia, Costești - Cetățuie, Costești - Blidaru, Luncani - Piatra Roșie, Banița și Căpâlna - vechi de aproximativ 2.000 de ani. Termenul pentru finalizarea lucrărilor, finanțate prin POR, este de 3 ani de la data adjudecării contractului. Administratorul parcului arheologic Sarmizegetusa Regia, Vladimir Brilinsky a declarat că în 2014, Sarmizegetusa Regia a fost vizitată de 27.000 de persoane plătitoare. Targetul pentru viitorii ani este ca numărul acestora să depășească 35.000.\r\n\r\nHUNEDOARA: Vlad Țepes are festival!\r\nLa Castelul Corvineștilor se va desfășura prima ediție a „Dracula Festival 2015\". Principalul obiectiv al evenimentului este\r\npromovarea României, precum şi a tradiţiilor, legendelor şi istoriei\r\nţării noastre, totul prezentat într-o antiteză între mitul Dracula şi\r\nadevărată istorie a voievodului Vlad Ţepeş.Festivalul implică activităţi culturale legate de lansarea cărţii lui Dacre Stoker în România, marea premieră a filmului documentar \"Istorii despre Vlad Voievod Drăculea\", regizat de Andrei Chiriac, cât şi activităţi turistice legate de promovarea brandului României în plan turistic. ”Evenimente asemănătoare se desfăşoară cu mare impact la public peste tot în lume sub egida numelui Dracula, de aici şi ideea acestui festival. Considerăm că putem crea încă o bună oportunitate pentru atragerea unor noi vizitatori ai țării noastre.Am reuşit să intrăm în contact cu organizatorii acestor evenimente şi cu peste 120 de grupuri şi comunităţi asemănătoare care ne ajută cu suportul logistic.\r\nNe-am propus să promovăm tradiţii și legende totul prezentat într-o antiteză între mitul Dracula şi adevărată istorie a voievodului român Vlad Ţepeş. Duminică, pe 3 mai, în ziua a 2-a a Festivalului, vom organiza un turnir\r\nmedieval ce va include întreceri ca tirul cu arcul, circuite de aventură (mers pe buşteni, echilibristică, sărit peste obstacole etc), probă de forţă\r\n(sfoara trasă de 2 echipe), probe de îndemânare cu sabia,\r\nHMB (Historical Medieval Battle) etc. Festivalul va avea intrare gratuită” - ne-a declarat Teodorov Alexandru Valentin, reprezentantul organizatorilor.\r\nTraveller Magazin este unul dintre Partenerii media ai evenimentului.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n\r\nROMÂNIA ȘI BULGARIA - promovare comună\r\nRomânia și Bulgaria doresc ar putea deschide un birou turistic comun în China, a anunțat serviciul de presă al Guvernului bulgar. Obiectivul îl reprezintă creșterea numărului de turiști din alte țări decât cele membre ale Uniunii Europene (UE). Principala piață furnizoare o reprezintă China. \"Crearea unui centru de informații turistice în China, care să servească promovării unor produse comune, face parte dintre măsurile cele mai importante. Specificitatea piețelor asiatice, inclusiv a celei chineze, face necesară dezvoltarea unor itinerarii culturale, iar România și Bulgaria au de oferit programe interesante, ca de exemplu \"Drumul împăraților romani\" - se arată în comunicat. Potrivit aceleiași surse numărul turiștilor chinezi care au vizitat Bulgaria a crescut de la 6.251 în 2011 la 13.986 în 2014.\r\n\r\nASOCIAȚIA FUTURE CAPITAL SIBIU\r\n...a lansat de la 1 Mai un traseu turistic denumit ”Drumul Președintelui”. Proiectul a fost inspirat de volumul autobiografic \"Pas cu Pas\", semnat de către fostul primar al Sibiului, Klaus Iohannis, actualul Președinte al României. Circuitul turistic este organizat pe malul Cibinului, \"pas cu pas prin cel mai frumos și cunoscut oraș al României, Sibiul\". Inițiatorii consideră că acesta va oferi o „experiență unică”. „Cunoaște și recunoaște Sibiul așa cum l-a descoperit Președintele, cu ochi de copil, de adolescent, de îndrăgostit, de profesor, de primar, cu ochi care te întâmpină binevoitor, te urmăresc curios și te îndeamna la descoperiri. Turism, educație, cultură” - este invitația lansată de Elena Lotrean, managerul proiectului.','Jurilocva - Liderul satelor culturale, EVENIMENTE nr.133','','inherit','open','open','','3828-revision-v1','','','2015-08-09 21:49:21','2015-08-09 19:49:21','',3828,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/08/09/3828-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(3830,1,'2015-08-09 22:16:03','2015-08-09 20:16:03','','Travel-incoming 1','','inherit','open','open','','travel-incoming-1','','','2015-08-09 22:16:03','2015-08-09 20:16:03','',3811,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Travel-incoming-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3831,1,'2015-08-09 22:16:19','2015-08-09 20:16:19','','Travel-incoming5','','inherit','open','open','','travel-incoming5','','','2015-08-09 22:16:19','2015-08-09 20:16:19','',3811,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Travel-incoming5.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3832,1,'2015-08-09 22:16:32','2015-08-09 20:16:32','Marele avantaj este că numeroși vizitatori ce sosesc din alte țări în România vin cu o rată de așteptare foarte joasă. După ce ne cunosc și iau contact cu o serie de atracții percepția lor devine pozitivă. Rămân surprinși plăcut de ceea ce trăesc în țara noastră.\r\n\r\n\r\nAsta este esența succesului nostru pe plan internațional. Nimeni nu-și face iluzii că numărul turiștilor străini a crescut datorită, în principal, campaniilor internaționale de promovare a României. O mare parte dintre ei vin atrași de ofertele agențiilor de turism specializate în incoming. Gheorghe Fodoreanu, unul dintre liderii buni cunoscători ai segmentului consideră că o țară este puternică din punct de vedere turistic, dacă reușește să facă bani din export de servicii. Dincolo de lacunele promovării dezvoltarea incomingului este frânată în continuarea de lipsa unei infrastructuri rutiere moderne. \"Dacă noi aveam autostradă între Budapesta, Bucureşti, Constanța, după \'90, acum eram plini de bani. Dar nu numai imaginea neclară a ţării şi drumurile proaste ţin turiştii departe de România. Statisticile arată că străinii stau în medie în România 2-3 nopţi, iar aproape 80% sunt din Europa, mai precis din Germania şi Italia\" - a arătat Fodoreanu, președintele agenției de turism Invitation Romania.\r\n\r\n\r\nIdeile fac parte din opiniile exprimate pe parcursul celei de-a II-a ediții a Romanian Incoming Travel Forum, care s-a desfășurat la Teatrul Elisabeta din București. Organizatorii - companiile Innovation Travel, InfoTravelRomania , au beneficiat de sprijinul Clubului Presei de Turism- FIJET România. Sponsorii principali au fost: Paralela 45 si Travel Maker. În timpul dezbaterilor s-au făcut mai multe prezentări din care au reieșit tendințe pozitive, inclusiv creșterea cu 10% a turiștilor străini sosiți în 2014 în România, comparativ cu anul precedent.\r\n\r\nAlin Burcea, liderul agenţiei Paralela 45 a afirmat că nu avem niciun motiv să ”facem horă și să bem vin fiert! Tendința este pozitivă, dar lucrurile stau destul de prost. Deşi numărul străinilor care ne vizitează ţara a crescut de la an la an, cifrele sunt în continuare mici. Din 1,9 milioane de străini care ne-au trecut graniţa anul trecut, doar 600.000 au venit în vacanţă, restul cu afaceri”.\r\n\r\nMirela Matichescu, vicepreşedintele Autorităţii Naţionale pentru Turism (ANT) considera la rândul său că: \"România are nevoie de eforturi mari şi de câţiva ani pentru a deveni competitivă pe piaţa internaţională a turismului.\" Interesante au fost și alocuțiunile ori intervențiile lui Răzvan Nacea, Managing Director and Brand Development Director Seytour International, care a oferit o perspectivă optimistă asupra turismului medical. ”Cheltuiala medie a unui turist străin pentru servicii medicale în România este de 3.000 – 3.500 de euro, ceea ce reprezintă cu circa 40% mai puțin decât tarifele achitate în țările lor de origine”. Christian Macedonschi de la Asociația pentru Promovarea și Dezvoltarea Turismului din județul Brașov, a subliniat și el creșterea numărului de turiști dar și a încasărilor în această zonă. Toate se datorează înmulțirii numărului de manifestări culturale, expoziționale etc. Alte opinii au luat în calcul abordarea unor piețe furnizoare de turiști - China dar și Republica Moldova, ambele neglijate din motive diferite, țările arabe ( Mehrab Asgari – director Bist Tours și Milad Air (România – Iran), Bulgaria etc.\r\nEdiția a II-a a Romanian Incoming Travel Forum, proiect (26 martie 2015) a atras peste 150 de participanți. La Tombola de la sfârșitul manifestării au fost oferite 38 de premii. Traveller Magazin a fost unul dintre Partenerii Media ai evenimentului.

Peste 5.000 de participanți - producători și vânzători de pachete turistice - se întîlnesc sub cupola Convention Center din Orlando între 30 mai și 4 iunie. La acest Târg, cel mai mare din lumea specialiștilor B2B, sunt prezente peste 70 de țări ce vor ocupa peste 1.100 de standuri. Roger Dow, președintele US Travel Association sublinia că ”organizația noastră reprezintă toate componentele din industria turistică. Ea generează 2.100 miliarde de dolari în economia Statelor Unite și susține 14,9 milioane de locuri de muncă.US Travel\'s mission is to increase travel to and within the United States.\n\n\nMisiunea US Travel Association este de a crește circulația turistică către SUA dar și în interiorul țării”. Liderii industriei turistice din Orlando sunt optimiști. Spre această destinație s-au îndreptat anul trecut 62 de milioane de vizitatori, cu 2 milioane mai mult decât arătau prognozele inițiale. Performanța se datorează în principal extinderii zborurilor directe ale unor companii din zona Golfului, cea mai importantă fiind Emirates. De la politica Open Skies care are în vedere și piața asiatică, se așteaptă un plus de 100 de milioane de dolari în economia locală. Turismul generează în Orlando 60 de miliarde de dolari, astfel încât 1 din 3 angajați lucrează în turism.\n\nTortul business-ului turistic conține și o felie mare reprezentată de cei peste 500 de editori și jurnaliști de travel internaționali invitați aici, la Orlando. Ziariștii de travel au, timp de o zi, conform tradiției, propriul lor târg, Media Marketplace. Aici sunt puse la punct parteneriate ori strategii de PR și Comunicare. Vedeta acestui an va continua să fie campania internațională ”Brand USA” lansată în 2012.\n\nDintre atracțiile locale nu vor lipsi Walt Disney World Resort, Universal Orlando Resort și Sea World. Echipa Traveller Magazin participă pentru al 17-lea an consecutiv la International Pow Wow (IPW) din SUA.

La atât se ridică rețeta întâlnirilor de afaceri ce vor avea loc la a 47-a ediție a International Pow Wow (IPW). Peste 5.000 de participanți - producători și vânzători de pachete turistice - se întîlnesc sub cupola Convention Center din Orlando între 30 mai și 4 iunie. La acest Târg, cel mai mare din lumea specialiștilor B2B, sunt prezente peste 70 de țări ce vor ocupa peste 1.100 de standuri. Roger Dow, președintele US Travel Association sublinia că ”organizația noastră reprezintă toate componentele din industria turistică. Ea generează 2.100 miliarde de dolari în economia Statelor Unite și susține 14,9 milioane de locuri de muncă.US Travel\'s mission is to increase travel to and within the United States.\r\n\r\nMisiunea US Travel Association este de a crește circulația turistică către SUA dar și în interiorul țării”. Liderii industriei turistice din Orlando sunt optimiști. Spre această destinație s-au îndreptat anul trecut 62 de milioane de vizitatori, cu 2 milioane mai mult decât arătau prognozele inițiale. Performanța se datorează în principal extinderii zborurilor directe ale unor companii din zona Golfului, cea mai importantă fiind Emirates. De la politica Open Skies care are în vedere și piața asiatică, se așteaptă un plus de 100 de milioane de dolari în economia locală. Turismul generează în Orlando 60 de miliarde de dolari, astfel încât 1 din 3 angajați lucrează în turism.\r\n\r\n\r\nTortul business-ului turistic conține și o felie mare reprezentată de cei peste 500 de editori și jurnaliști de travel internaționali invitați aici, la Orlando. Ziariștii de travel au, timp de o zi, conform tradiției, propriul lor târg, Media Marketplace. Aici sunt puse la punct parteneriate ori strategii de PR și Comunicare. Vedeta acestui an va continua să fie campania internațională ”Brand USA” lansată în 2012.\r\n\r\nDintre atracțiile locale nu vor lipsi Walt Disney World Resort, Universal Orlando Resort și Sea World. Echipa Traveller Magazin participă pentru al 17-lea an consecutiv la International Pow Wow (IPW) din SUA.

Ca de obicei erau mai mulți sceptici decât optimiști care ar fi pariat pe succesul acestui eveniment sportiv. Și pe bună dreptate - România nu deține nici hipodroame, nici baze hipice competitive, dar nu promovează la nivel de stat, concursuri care să devină un factor de educație dar și un magnet pentru circulația turistică.\n\n\nCu toate acestea Baza hipică Equestria a ajuns să marcheze împlinirea a 5 ani de la înființare și organizarea a celei de-a IV-a ediții a Salonului Calului. Cel mai mare eveniment sportiv de echitație se transformă din 2015, într-un Circuit ecvestru. Ce-a de-a IV-a ediție anunță un calendar bogat, cu 9 evenimente sportive, dedicate atât adulților cât și copiilor, profesioniștilor dar şi amatorilor. În acest context, Salonul Calului, cel mai important şi complex eveniment ecvestru din țară, revine anul acesta, cu o structură de patru etape competiționale de sărituri peste obstacole: etapa I (24-26 aprilie); etapa a II-a (5-7 iunie); etapa a III-a (24-26 iulie); finala (24-27 septembrie). Nu întâmplător Salonul Calului se desfășoară de anul trecut sub Înaltul Patronaj al Alteței Sa Regale Principele Nicolae al României.\n\n\n”Anul acesta Equestria împlinește frumoasa vârstă de 5 ani și va fi cel mai bogat an în concursuri, fiind în rolul de gazdă și organizator a nu mai puțin de nouă competiții: opt la disciplina „Sărituri peste obstacole” și unul la disciplina „Dresaj sportiv”. Acest lucru permite sportivilor, dar și spectatorilor să fie prezenți la concursuri, indiferent de programul sau vacanțele planificate. Mai mult, cel mai important eveniment al nostru Salonul Calului va fi structurat începând de anul acesta ca un Circuit ecvestru, pe patru etape, prezentat de către Mihai Găinușă și Codruț Kegheș” - a declarat Dr. Ozana Moraru, Preşedintele Clubului Equestria, pe care l-a înființat în 2010, împreună cu Cristian Moraru, în satul Tâncăbești, zona Snagov, pe o suprafață de 2,5 hectare.\n\n\n\nCalendarul competițional al clubului Equestria include 9 etape. El va debuta cu Circuitul Salonul Calului deșa amintit, va include printre altele, Cupa României – obstacole (30 iulie – 2 august) și se va încheia în perioada 24-27 septembrie, cu Finala Circuitul Salonul Calului, Etapa a IV-a, respectiv cu Finala Campionatului Național de Forță. Prima etapă a evenimentului Salonul Calului va atrage în această lună, pe parcursul a 3 zile de concurs atenția profesioniștilor, ȋn primul rând, dar şi a amatorilor, sportivilor debutanți, juniorilor şi copiilor. Aceştia vor participa la 14 probe de sărituri peste obstacole cu diferite bareme: probe cu baraj, probe de ştafetă, probe de ȋndemânare călare, probe la cronometru. Pe durata weekend-ului spectatorii vor putea participa la probe amuzante precum: “proba în oglindă” cu ponei, dedicată copiilor, ”ștafeta cu urmărire” și altele. Valoarea totală a premiilor pe ȋntreg Circuitul Salonul Calului se ridică la 180.000 lei, asigurați de sponsori generoși dar și de parteneri ca Jockey Club Român, Federația Ecvestră Română, Romsilva Regia Națională a Pădurilor etc.\n\nLegendarul comentator sportiv Cristian Țopescu, a cărui dragoste pentru cai i-a fost insuflată de tatăl său Felix Țopescu, a fost unul dintre invitații speciali ai conferinței de presă desfășurată la Jockey Club din București. El a declarat că ”am ajuns să fim singura țară europeană fără un hipodrom modern. Cândva mai multe orașe din România - Sibiu, Piatra Neamț, Timișoara ori București -, se puteau lăuda cu asemenea baze hipice. Hipismul, competițiile eqvestre exprimă un anumit grad de cultură și educație. Dar creșterea cailor este și o afacere economică. Irlanda, spre exemplu, exportă anual cai în valoare de circa 300 de milioane de dolari.”\n\nLocalnicii sau turiștii sunt așteptați de organizatori în tribunele cu o capacitate de circa 500 de spectatori, de unde vor putea urmări evoluția a peste 100 de cai din cele mai frumoase rase. Clubul Equestria oferă servicii și posibilități de cazare într-un hotel și un restaurant cu o capacitate de 50-60 de persoane, precum și două terase exterioare.

Albastru de Voroneț este una dintre ele. Dar după ce ați admirat această minune din Bucovina merită să vă îndreptați spre Sidi Bou Said, așezare aflată la numai 20 de kilometri distanță de Tunis, capitala Republicii Tunisia. Aici veți trăi o experiență unică.\n\n\nEști câștigător dacă ai luat o asemenea decizie. Înainte de a pleca prin labirintul așezării trebuie să afli câteva lucruri utile. Chiar la intrare ești asaltat de către comercianți, mai puțini agresivi decât în alte țări, dar totuși!, ce te pun la curent cu principalele îndeletniciri artizanale ale locului: covoare, ceramică, parfumuri, colivii de păsări etc. Pe fiecare în parte sau toate la un loc le vei reîntâlni în spații răcoroase din curțile interioare unde este bine, din când în când, să-ți tragi sufletul și să te protejezi căldura soarelui. Aici, deasupra Golfului Tunis, vei afla că numele așezării provine de la prescurtarea unui sfânt islamic ce a locuit chiar aici: Abou Said ibn Khalef ibn Yahia Ettamini el Beji. Dar la faima locului a contribuit și Saint Louis - care, spune legenda, venit aici în timpul războiului s-a îndrăgostit de o prințesă berberă. Ulterior și-a schimbat numele devenind sfântul protector al satului, unde ar fi trăit îmbrățișat de prea plinul fericirii. Puteți încerca și dumneavoastră, în timp ce veți mai afla de la ghidul ce vă însoțește că mai există și un baron pe nume Rodolphe d’Enlarger, care fascinat de magia locului a construit o vilă extravagantă (între 1912-1922), care găzduiește azi Centrul de muzică arabă și mediteraniană. Fostul palat al baronul a devenit muzeu. Aici vizitatorii pot admira o splendoare a Nopţilor Arabe “Palatul lui Venus”.\n\nÎn timp ce vei străbate străduțele pavate cu piatră cubică, care șerpuiesc în sus, foarte accesibile, mai află că până în 1820 europenilor nu le-a fost permis să intre în sat, dar asta a rămas de mult istorie. Acum localnicii sunt mândri că au găzduit personalități precum François-René de Chateaubriand, Gustave Flaubert, Alphonse de Lamartine, André Gide, Simone de Beauvoir, Michel Foucault, Paul Klee. Unii dintre ei au locuit în casele din partea veche a Sidi Bou Saidului ce se remarcă printr-o armonioasă îmbinare a arhitecturii arabe cu cea andaluză. De aceea orașul este cunoscut și ca micul \"paradis alb și albastru\". Și tot nu întâmplător din 1915 autoritățile coloniale au declarat centrul orașului drept monument de istorie și cultură.\nAtenție puteți închiria și serviciile unor însoțitori independenți pentru un circuit de câteva ore dacă nu veniți aici cu un grup organizat. După ce v-ați umplut de cultură și v-ați cam săturat de shopping, cel mai mare răsfăț vi-l asigură o cafea bună sau un ceai verde, răcoritor, băute aproape de cer, deasupra Portului Sidi Bou Said. Cele mai căutate, pentru că pe aici trec aproape toate rutele turistice, sunt panoramele cu care te delectezi de la \"Café des Nattes\", sau în drumul spre far la faimoasa cafenea \"Sidi Chebaane\".

Essam Aboud, vicepreședinte de operațiuni pe Europa de Est, Rusia și Turcia, la Hilton Worldwide a declarat că România, la fel ca Rusia și Turcia, este o piață în plină creștere în regiunea pe care o coordoneză, cu un potențial tot mai mare pentru brandurile Hilton Worldwide.\n\n\nGrupul hotelier intenționează să se extindă pe piața locală cu încă 7 unități. „La ora actuală, ne concentrăm asupra orașelor mari, capitale de județ, unde am constatat că există un interes foarte mare pentru brandurile noastre din segmentul focus service: Hampton by Hilton și Hilton Garden Inn. Există orașe în afara Bucureștiului care ar fi potrivite pentru hoteluri din segmentul upscale, așa cum este DoubleTree by Hilton Sighișoara aflat în curs de amenajare. Pentru moment, ne concentrăm pe dezvoltarea portofoliului de branduri mid-market. Constatăm că există potențial pentru noi hoteluri, precum și pentru conversia unor proprietăți deja existente\" - a mai spus Essam Aboud. La rândul său Adela Cristea, director de dezvoltare al lanţului pe Europa Centrală şi de Est apreciază că „România este o piaţă care permite o dezvoltare consistentă, în special pe segmentul hotelurilor focus service (patru şi trei stele), aşa cum sunt brandurile Hilton Garden Inn şi Hampton by Hilton.

Circuitul turistic este organizat pe malul Cibinului, \"pas cu pas prin cel mai frumos și cunoscut oraș al României, Sibiul\". Inițiatorii consideră că acesta va oferi o „experiență unică”. „Cunoaște și recunoaște Sibiul așa cum l-a descoperit Președintele, cu ochi de copil, de adolescent, de îndrăgostit, de profesor, de primar, cu ochi care te întâmpină binevoitor, te urmăresc curios și te îndeamna la descoperiri.

Platforma ‘My Feel Good Place’ a fost dezvoltată având în minte sloganul ‘Made to Feel Good’ și extinde misiunea Goodyear de a oferi oamenilor experiența unei călătorii confortabile către o destinație familiară, plină de inspirație. Utilizatorii pot trimite fotografii pe Instagram cu hashtag-ul #MyFeelGoodPlace și pot câștiga câteva premii, printre care se numără și un bilet de zbor în jurul lumii.

Expoziția va fi inaugurată la 1 Mai și va dura până pe 31 Octombrie 2015. Organizatorii se așteaptă ca această manifestare să atragă peste 20 de milioane de vizitatori din întreaga lume. Într-o conferință de presă susținută la București Marco Rottino (country manager România & Moldova Alitalia) a anunțat că transportatorii Alitalia și Etihad Airways sunt companiile aeriene oficiale ale EXPO Milano 2015 și că ele vor facilita publicului român, în cadrul programului ”Connecting the World”, un foarte bun acces la eveniment prin suplimentarea zborurilor și bilete cu prețuri speciale către orașul italian. La rândul său Georgian Ghervasie, comisarul general al țării noastre la Expo Milano a declarat că România și-a propus să evidențeze în Pavilionul național, tradițiile, creativitatea, inovația și autenticitatea destinației turistice.\r\n\r\nCELE MAI ACCESIBILE ORAȘE\r\nÎntr-un top realizat de către site-ul Trivago, Brașovul și Sibiul se numără printre cele mai avantajoase destinații la nivel mondial din 2015, aflându-se pe locul 13, și respectiv 18. Indicele oferă o listă cu cele mai accesibile 100 de orașe ce trebuie explorate în 2015, atât pe baza prețului mediu anual pe noapte, pentru o cameră standard, cât și a reputației hotelurilor din zonă. În ceea ce privește clasamentul la nivel european, Bosnia, Herțegovina, Serbia, Bulgaria și Ungaria se prezintă drept cele mai convenabile destinații pentru acest an.\r\n\r\n8,7 MILIOANE DE EURO PENTRU CETĂȚILE DACICE\r\nLa această sumă se ridică programul de modernizare a drumurilor de acces către cetățile dacice. Proiectul, ce va fi derulat de către Consiliul Județean Hunedoara, are în vedere integrarea celor șase cetăți într-un circuit cultural și istoric european. Ansamblul din Munții Orăștiei este format din cetățile ce fac parte din patrimoniul UNESCO: Sarmizegetusa Regia, Costești - Cetățuie, Costești - Blidaru, Luncani - Piatra Roșie, Banița și Căpâlna - vechi de aproximativ 2.000 de ani. Termenul pentru finalizarea lucrărilor, finanțate prin POR, este de 3 ani de la data adjudecării contractului. Administratorul parcului arheologic Sarmizegetusa Regia, Vladimir Brilinsky a declarat că în 2014, Sarmizegetusa Regia a fost vizitată de 27.000 de persoane plătitoare. Targetul pentru viitorii ani este ca numărul acestora să depășească 35.000.\r\n\r\nHUNEDOARA: Vlad Țepes are festival!\r\nLa Castelul Corvineștilor se va desfășura prima ediție a „Dracula Festival 2015\". Principalul obiectiv al evenimentului este\r\npromovarea României, precum şi a tradiţiilor, legendelor şi istoriei\r\nţării noastre, totul prezentat într-o antiteză între mitul Dracula şi\r\nadevărată istorie a voievodului Vlad Ţepeş.\r\n\r\nFestivalul implică activităţi culturale legate de lansarea cărţii lui Dacre Stoker în România, marea premieră a filmului documentar \"Istorii despre Vlad Voievod Drăculea\", regizat de Andrei Chiriac, cât şi activităţi turistice legate de promovarea brandului României în plan turistic. ”Evenimente asemănătoare se desfăşoară cu mare impact la public peste tot în lume sub egida numelui Dracula, de aici şi ideea acestui festival. Considerăm că putem crea încă o bună oportunitate pentru atragerea unor noi vizitatori ai țării noastre.Am reuşit să intrăm în contact cu organizatorii acestor evenimente şi cu peste 120 de grupuri şi comunităţi asemănătoare care ne ajută cu suportul logistic.\r\nNe-am propus să promovăm tradiţii și legende totul prezentat într-o antiteză între mitul Dracula şi adevărată istorie a voievodului român Vlad Ţepeş. Duminică, pe 3 mai, în ziua a 2-a a Festivalului, vom organiza un turnir\r\nmedieval ce va include întreceri ca tirul cu arcul, circuite de aventură (mers pe buşteni, echilibristică, sărit peste obstacole etc), probă de forţă\r\n(sfoara trasă de 2 echipe), probe de îndemânare cu sabia,\r\nHMB (Historical Medieval Battle) etc. Festivalul va avea intrare gratuită” - ne-a declarat Teodorov Alexandru Valentin, reprezentantul organizatorilor.\r\nTraveller Magazin este unul dintre Partenerii media ai evenimentului.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nROMÂNIA ȘI BULGARIA - promovare comună\r\nRomânia și Bulgaria doresc ar putea deschide un birou turistic comun în China, a anunțat serviciul de presă al Guvernului bulgar. Obiectivul îl reprezintă creșterea numărului de turiști din alte țări decât cele membre ale Uniunii Europene (UE). Principala piață furnizoare o reprezintă China. \"Crearea unui centru de informații turistice în China, care să servească promovării unor produse comune, face parte dintre măsurile cele mai importante. Specificitatea piețelor asiatice, inclusiv a celei chineze, face necesară dezvoltarea unor itinerarii culturale, iar România și Bulgaria au de oferit programe interesante, ca de exemplu \"Drumul împăraților romani\" - se arată în comunicat. Potrivit aceleiași surse numărul turiștilor chinezi care au vizitat Bulgaria a crescut de la 6.251 în 2011 la 13.986 în 2014.\r\n\r\nASOCIAȚIA FUTURE CAPITAL SIBIU\r\n...a lansat de la 1 Mai un traseu turistic denumit ”Drumul Președintelui”. Proiectul a fost inspirat de volumul autobiografic \"Pas cu Pas\", semnat de către fostul primar al Sibiului, Klaus Iohannis, actualul Președinte al României. Circuitul turistic este organizat pe malul Cibinului, \"pas cu pas prin cel mai frumos și cunoscut oraș al României, Sibiul\". Inițiatorii consideră că acesta va oferi o „experiență unică”. „Cunoaște și recunoaște Sibiul așa cum l-a descoperit Președintele, cu ochi de copil, de adolescent, de îndrăgostit, de profesor, de primar, cu ochi care te întâmpină binevoitor, te urmăresc curios și te îndeamna la descoperiri.

Există chiar sub ochii noștri posibilități generoase de recuperare a banilor deturnați ori neimpozitați de la stat. Da, banii, ăia acoperiți prin contracte de sponsorizare politică. Da, banii aceia care au alunecat cu viteză prin tubulatura comisioanelor la afaceri în care unii oameni politici îmbârligați cu businessmani, nu au participat nici măcar cu 1 euro.\r\n\r\nConform unor studii de piață în România sunt scoase la vânzare circa 100 de hoteluri. Statul român ar putea să cumpere vreo 2-3, cu capacități corespunzătoare de 150-200 de camere -, pe care să le renoveze și să le transforme în domicilii forțate. De 4 și 5 stele. Unul la mare, unul la munte și altul într-o stațiune balneară. Astfel închisorile sufocate de atâta înghesuială, și-ar reduce costurile cu mâncarea și întreținerea acestor deținuți de lux, care culmea ironiei, halesc tot din banii statului.\r\n\r\n\r\nCe să facă statul cu aceste hoteluri??? Păi să le transforme, să le amenajeze ca variantă pentru arest și arest la domiciliu. Asa s-ar introduce un nou termen: arestul la hotel! Spații păzite, dar plătite zilnic sub formă de cazare și masă. Desigur, dacă unii deținuți vor dori, se vor putea înscrie și la varianta... all inclusive. Acționarii hotelurilor ar putea fi ANI și DNA-ul cu câte 50% fiecare. ANI ar acoperi serviciile de transport și travel iar DNA partea de ”operare” hotelieră. Pentru a se recupera mai cu ritm din sumele furate, prețul unei camere cu serviciile incluse ar putea varia, în funcție de confort, între 500 și 1500 de euro pe...zi. Astfel, după scăderea TVA-ului, a costurilor de întreținere și salariilor angajaților, ar putea să rămână curați vreo 300.000 de euro de deținut pe an. Dacă ar executa pedepse cuprinse între 2 și 10 ani de exemplu, statul ar putea introduce în circuitul curat bani fiscalizați extrași din mâlul unei lumi murdare dar plină de aroganță și tupeu. Ar fi ceva, nu?\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_2843\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"225\"] Marian ConstantinescuCEO Traveller Magazin[/caption]\r\n\r\nDar ar apărea și alte efecte cu impact major! Ar crește gradul de ocupare în industria turistică. Cu un grad de 100% DNA și ANI ar deveni cele mai premiate companii de turism. Institutul Național de Statistică ar raporta în sfârșit o majorare substanțială a încasărilor din turism la bugetul de stat, iar contribuția turismului la PIB-ul românesc ar trece ușor de 5-6%. Unități de cazare ar fi în permanență pline, căci ele vor funcționa indiferent de sezoane și anotimpuri. Iar deținuții nu vor mai avea motive să se plângă cum că n-au condiții să-și scrie cărțile vieții lor.\r\n\r\nDesigur, nu se putea să nu apară și o întrebare timidă, din rândul publicului! Și dacă nu au săracii posibilitatea să plătească??? Ei, ați înțeles, omul a vrut să facă o glumiță!

Atenția noastră a fost reținută însă de dezvoltarea unor investiții în zone de agrement. Ele oferă sarea și piperul timpului liber al turistului.\r\n
\r\n\r\nSorin Dencescu, proprietarul Kron-Tour Expo Fairs & Exhibition, antreprenorul care organizează de 8 ediții acest Târg, a remarcat acest aspect în cadrul conferinței de presă. Este un lucru benefic, spunea el, că brașovenii dar și turiștii români ori străini, care vizitează această capitală turistică, au din acest an, o paletă mai largă de posibilități de petrecere a timpului liber în zonă. Au fost puse la punct circuite ale cetăților, o serie de manifestări care atrag sute de mii de consumatori - Turnirul Cetăților și Oktoberfest sunt două dintre ele -, dar au apărut și parcuri de aventură ori tematice care pun în valoare locații apropiate de orașul de sub poalele Tâmpei. Drept urmare cel mai căutat de către familiile cu copii și tineri a fost standul ”Dinoparc Râșnov” a cărui deschidere a fost anunțată pentru luna viitoare. După cum ne-a declarat Gabi Rogozea, directorul acestei investiții, avem de-a face cu un parc tematic științific amplasat în vecinătatea Cetății Rășnov. El va deține peste 50 de dinozauri realizați la mărime naturală. Printre lucrurile atipice oferite se numără cazarea în căsuțe amenajate în arbori la nivelul coroanei, dino-cinema, spectacole laser shooting, zone interactive pentru copii și, cum îi stă bine unui spațiu turistic modern, un magazin de dino-suveniruri. După cum a mai afirmat Rogozea, Parcul cu dinozauri este cel mai mare de acest gen, din estul Europei.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"3767,3768,3769,3770\"]\r\n\r\nDin cei peste 50 de participanți ne-au reținut atenția produsele - unele noi, altele repoziționate - ale unor instituții administrative precum Asociația pentru Promovarea Turismului din Oradea și Regiune. General managerul Mihai Jurca ne-a vorbit despre noul concept al promovării orașului drept Capitală a stilului baroc. În acest sens va fi demarată o campanie ce are menirea de a individualiza patrimoniul clădirilor reprezentative din punct de vedere arhitectonic. Un lanț hotelier care crește în vizibilitate este Bacolux, ce deține deja unități la Herculane (Afrodita și Diana), Craiova și Bușteni. Foarte agresivă a fost din nou prezența Litoralului la Târgul de la Brașov. Blaxi Premium Resort & Hotel, și-a etalat oferta, Asociația Litoral-Delta Dunării, a venit cu numeroase pliante și informații despre viitorul sezon estival, iar lanțul Phoenicia și-a promovat noile servicii pentru familii. O prezență foarte activă a avut-o și turismul on-line, sistemul de rezervări Fireflies anunțând un regim conversațional așteptat de generația Y.\r\n\r\nVom mai aminti de Gala Festivă de la Hotelul Aro, unde a fost marcată și împlinirea a 25 de ani de activitate a grupului Kron-Tour. Ea a reflectat pentru cunoscători, o nouă tendință, mai modernă și rafinată, imprimată de specialiștii în gastronomiei ai complexului. Și, bineînțeles, vom aminti de faptul că organizatorii evenimentului au fost ANAT și Primăria Brașov, iar Amadeus și Dertour România au fost sponsorii de marcă.

Din partea unor femei inteligente, și frumoase pe deasupra, care s-au gândit cu ani în urmă să pună la lucru magia tradițiilor - ia românească. Andreea Tănăsescu împreună cu alte femei pline de inițiativă a pus în mișcare inițiativa - La Blouse romaine - o comunitate online - care a urcat în lumea reală pentru a promova unul dintre cele mai consistente simboluri românești. Foarte atractivă pentru creatorii de artă - fie ei stiliști, designeri, pictori, etnologi, folcloriști, toți la un loc au devenit activiști ai frumosului modern și util.\r\n\r\n”Izvorul” a fost Henri Matisse care s-a inspirat din prietenia cu Theodor Pallady. La fel de adevărat e că Regina Maria a fost militanta cea mai de preț a acestor creații care au ajuns și pe linia frontului dar și în marile saloane regale.

\r\nAsociația Pro Turism din Herculane și-a propus să desfășoare acțiuni percutante menite să relanseze și repoziționeze stațiunea pe plan național și internațional. De curând, s-a derulat, la hotelul Diana, Conferința națională cu tema ”Întoarcerea la apă! Echilibru și Sănătate!”. Marilena Badea, președintele Asociației a precizat că ”apa poate fi un punct central al valorificării zonei, Băile Herculane deținând proprietăți speciale terapeutice care au pus stațiunea pe harta turistică a Europei. De aceea suntem preocupați de îmbunătățirea serviciilor și a promovării. Ne dorim ca prin formarea unei platforme de comunicare să transmitem și soluții bazate pe factori naturali către pacienții și turiștii care doresc să vină în această zonă”. Dorin Bălteanu, scriitor și promotor turistic, a arătat că zona deține un potențial uriaș dat de istorie și de personalitățile ce au trecut prin stațiune. Atestată prin anii 153, romanii i-au dat strălucire, ulterior austriecii - Franz Jozsef pe la 1852, legendara Sissi a cărei imagine e prea puțin valorificată -, dar și dr. Alexandru Popovici, autorul primei monografii despre Băile Herculane (1836-1903). Specialiști în diverse domenii terapeutice au invocat tratamente atât pentru corp cât și pentru echilibru interior.\r\n\r\nVASILE COSTRUȘ\r\n\r\nPREMIERĂ: Vin de Sommelier By Marius Stoica\r\n![\"ev](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/ev-VinSomelier-Stoica-1.jpg\")
\r\nInedit. A fost lansat în România, pentru prima dată un vin creat de un somelier. El se numește chiar Vin de Sommelier, iar conceptul de cupajare poartă semnătura lui Marius Stoica. Asemenea maestrului parfumier care combină miligrame din esențele dorite pentru a contura notele perfecte ale unui parfum creatorul a îmbinat diferite soiuri și stiluri de vinificație în căutarea vinului perfect. ”Vinul bază de la care am plecat este un Merlot vinificat în lipsa lemnului de Daniel Dorneanu (Domeniile Franco Romane), cu o structură subțire, dar bogat în taninuri. Pentru completarea experienței gustative am apelat la un Cabernet Sauvignon vinificat de Stephen Donnelly (Crama Budureasca), maturat douăsprezece luni în butoaie mici de stejar, bogat în arome. Primă ediție, limitată la doar 600 de sticle, cuprinde vinuri provenite din cele mai bune zone, prelucrate cu grijă și mixate într-o rețetă unică sub sigla Vin de Sommelier, ce reprezintă simbolul aprecierii mele pentru aceasta cultură și pentru iubitorii de vin” - a subliniat Marius Stoica.\r\n\r\nION BADEA\r\n\r\nPELICANII se vor hrăni cu REGIO\r\n![\"Ev](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Ev-Delta-Regio.jpg\")
\r\nMinisterul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Administraţiei Publice (MDRAP), a anunţat că primele ghiduri ale solicitantului pentru Regio - Programul Operaţional Regional 2014-2020 vor fi publicate în luna mai. Programul are 11 axe prioritare şi o alocare estimată de 8,2 miliarde de euro. Pe segmentul de turism ne-a reținut atenția susținerea dezvoltării Deltei Dunării prin instrumentul ITI, cu o alocație de 1 miliard de euro.O altă noutate este modul în care România abordează Strategia Dunării: se pare că suntem singura țară care finanțeaza în mod real proiecte pentru Strategia Dunarii” - se precizează într-un comunicat de presă. Investiţiile Teritoriale Integrate (ITI) reprezintă o noutate faţă de programul anterior (2007-2013). Ele permit intervenţii concentrate şi corelate pe mai multe domenii dintr-o singură zonă, pentru dezvoltarea integrată a acesteia. ITI Delta Dunării va fi utilizat, prin contribuția tuturor Fondurilor Europene Structurale şi de Investiţii (FESI) 2014-2020, într-un areal format din 38 de unități administrativ teritoriale din cadrul Rezervației Biosfera Delta Dunării, din Județul Tulcea și din nordul Județului Constanța. MDRAP gestionează POR 2014-2020 în calitate de Autoritate de Management.\r\n\r\nPRIMUL PARC ACVATIC CU APE GEOTERMALE\r\n... din sudul țării va fi amenajat în zona Balotesti - Corbeanca. Lucrările la acest proiect au demarat în 2013 și se vor încheia până la sfârșitul anului. Societatea Aedificia Carpați este responsabilă de acest proiect cu finanțare germană. Valoarea investiției se ridică la aproape 30 de milioane de euro.\r\nCompania dezvoltatoare este Therme Nord București SRL. Parcul acvatic se va întinde pe 10 hectare, dintre care 15.000 de metri pătrați vor reprezenta suprafața construită. În interiorul complexului, vizitatorii vor avea la dispoziție bazine geotermale, hidromasaj, saune cu aburi, lac artificial, pisicine etc.\r\n\r\nFRUMOSUL PE CARE L-AM UITAT.\r\n![\"ev](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/ev-Muzeul-satului.jpg\")

De curând, s-a derulat, la hotelul Diana, Conferința națională cu tema ”Întoarcerea la apă! Echilibru și Sănătate!”. Marilena Badea, președintele Asociației a precizat că ”apa poate fi un punct central al valorificării zonei, Băile Herculane deținând proprietăți speciale terapeutice care au pus stațiunea pe harta turistică a Europei. De aceea suntem preocupați de îmbunătățirea serviciilor și a promovării. Ne dorim ca prin formarea unei platforme de comunicare să transmitem și soluții bazate pe factori naturali către pacienții și turiștii care doresc să vină în această zonă”. Dorin Bălteanu, scriitor și promotor turistic, a arătat că zona deține un potențial uriaș dat de istorie și de personalitățile ce au trecut prin stațiune. Atestată prin anii 153, romanii i-au dat strălucire, ulterior austriecii - Franz Jozsef pe la 1852, legendara Sissi a cărei imagine e prea puțin valorificată -, dar și dr. Alexandru Popovici, autorul primei monografii despre Băile Herculane (1836-1903). Specialiști în diverse domenii terapeutice au invocat tratamente atât pentru corp cât și pentru echilibru interior.\r\n\r\nVASILE COSTRUȘ\r\n\r\n\r\nPREMIERĂ: Vin de Sommelier By Marius Stoica\r\nInedit. A fost lansat în România, pentru prima dată un vin creat de un somelier. El se numește chiar Vin de Sommelier, iar conceptul de cupajare poartă semnătura lui Marius Stoica. Asemenea maestrului parfumier care combină miligrame din esențele dorite pentru a contura notele perfecte ale unui parfum creatorul a îmbinat diferite soiuri și stiluri de vinificație în căutarea vinului perfect. ”Vinul bază de la care am plecat este un Merlot vinificat în lipsa lemnului de Daniel Dorneanu (Domeniile Franco Romane), cu o structură subțire, dar bogat în taninuri. Pentru completarea experienței gustative am apelat la un Cabernet Sauvignon vinificat de Stephen Donnelly (Crama Budureasca), maturat douăsprezece luni în butoaie mici de stejar, bogat în arome. Primă ediție, limitată la doar 600 de sticle, cuprinde vinuri provenite din cele mai bune zone, prelucrate cu grijă și mixate într-o rețetă unică sub sigla Vin de Sommelier, ce reprezintă simbolul aprecierii mele pentru aceasta cultură și pentru iubitorii de vin” - a subliniat Marius Stoica.\r\n\r\nION BADEA\r\n\r\nPELICANII se vor hrăni cu REGIO\r\nMinisterul Dezvoltării Regionale şi Administraţiei Publice (MDRAP), a anunţat că primele ghiduri ale solicitantului pentru Regio - Programul Operaţional Regional 2014-2020 vor fi publicate în luna mai. Programul are 11 axe prioritare şi o alocare estimată de 8,2 miliarde de euro. Pe segmentul de turism ne-a reținut atenția susținerea dezvoltării Deltei Dunării prin instrumentul ITI, cu o alocație de 1 miliard de euro.O altă noutate este modul în care România abordează Strategia Dunării: se pare că suntem singura țară care finanțeaza în mod real proiecte pentru Strategia Dunarii” - se precizează într-un comunicat de presă. Investiţiile Teritoriale Integrate (ITI) reprezintă o noutate faţă de programul anterior (2007-2013). Ele permit intervenţii concentrate şi corelate pe mai multe domenii dintr-o singură zonă, pentru dezvoltarea integrată a acesteia. ITI Delta Dunării va fi utilizat, prin contribuția tuturor Fondurilor Europene Structurale şi de Investiţii (FESI) 2014-2020, într-un areal format din 38 de unități administrativ teritoriale din cadrul Rezervației Biosfera Delta Dunării, din Județul Tulcea și din nordul Județului Constanța. MDRAP gestionează POR 2014-2020 în calitate de Autoritate de Management.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nPRIMUL PARC ACVATIC CU APE GEOTERMALE\r\n... din sudul țării va fi amenajat în zona Balotesti - Corbeanca. Lucrările la acest proiect au demarat în 2013 și se vor încheia până la sfârșitul anului. Societatea Aedificia Carpați este responsabilă de acest proiect cu finanțare germană. Valoarea investiției se ridică la aproape 30 de milioane de euro.\r\nCompania dezvoltatoare este Therme Nord București SRL. Parcul acvatic se va întinde pe 10 hectare, dintre care 15.000 de metri pătrați vor reprezenta suprafața construită. În interiorul complexului, vizitatorii vor avea la dispoziție bazine geotermale, hidromasaj, saune cu aburi, lac artificial, pisicine etc.\r\n\r\n\r\nFRUMOSUL PE CARE L-AM UITAT.\r\nÎntre 15 mai și 15 iulie, de miercuri până duminică, între orele 10 și 18.00, puteți vizita la Sala Gheorghe Focșa a Muzeului Naţional al Satului „Dimitrie Gusti” expoziția ”Feminitate şi împodobire”. Manifestarea face parte din calendarul de evenimente ce marchează împlinirea a 79 de ani de la fondarea instituției.

E drept că am fost ajutați foarte mult în strategia noastră de promovare și de eliminare a vizelor pentru turiștii din țara dumneavoastră.

Cu toate acestea care este opinia dumneavoastră despre consumatorul român de călătorii și vacanțe care folosește rutele flydubai?

Concertul cu o înaltă valoare artistică a fost susținut de doi artiști sud-africani: pianistul Ben Schoeman (considerat cel mai mare pianist sud-african a evoluat și pe scena Festivalului Internațional George Enescu) și baritonul Njabulo Madlala (distins cu premiul Sir John Manduell, pentru cea mai prestigioasă voce a Republicii Africa de Sud). Ei au purtat audiența printre creațiile lui Franz Schubert, Richard Strauss, Henri Duparc, ale spiritualității americane dar și ale filoanelor muzicale tradiționale sud-africane (Thula baba, Malaika, Shosholoza etc). Unul dintre sponsorii manifestării, un important investitor sud-african în România - Ursus Breweries -, a făcut cunoscut faptul că respectia companie este prima din România validată la standardele internaționale Global Reporting Initiative (GRI G4). De reținut faptul că investitorul a generat direct sau indirect circa 28.000 de locuri de muncă în economia României.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU ','RSA - muzica libertatii, MAPAMOND AFRICA nr.134','','inherit','open','open','','3888-revision-v1','','','2015-08-20 02:37:53','2015-08-20 00:37:53','',3888,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/08/20/3888-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(3891,1,'2015-08-20 02:43:14','2015-08-20 00:43:14','”Lonely Planet” i-a acordat premiul ”Best in Travel” pentru anul 2015.

Acestea sunt InfoTravelGrecia.ro, InfoTravelBulgaria.ro, InfoTravelTurcia.ro, InfoTravelUngaria.ro, InfoTravelMalta.ro, InfoTravelSpania.ro şi InfoTravelAustria.ro.\n\n“În curând acestora li se va alătura şi InfoTravelItalia.ro. Aceste site-uri constituie o platformă unde se pot promova agenţiile de turism care vând aceste destinatii, dar şi hotelurile, birourile de promovare sau organizaţiile de turism din ţările respective. De asemenea, site-urile noastre stau la dispoziţia turiştilor cu informaţii cât mai mai diverse şi complete despre destinaţiile căutate. Dacă acum 10 ani, internetul nu era accesibil unui procent foarte mare de consumatori, acest canal reprezintă în prezent unul dintre cele mai puternice mijloace de informare şi documentare pentru consumatorii de călătorii”, a declarat Petre Dordea, directorul general al grupului InfoTravelRomania.\nPotrivit Internet World Stats, anultrecut, numărul total de utilizatori de internet era în România de 9,6 milioane, iar al celor de Facebook de 5.687.040. România deţine 1,9% din numărul de utilizatori de internet din Europa, estimat la circa 518 milioane. Căutările de turism se află în topul căutărilor românilor, cu o medie de 8,3 milioane de căutări lunare pe Google, după auto, artă şi cultură, IT & C, mass-media şi copii.\n\n Despre InfoTravelRomania.ro\n\n InfoTravelRomania.ro a fost lansat pe 18 iunie 2002, iar în această vara va aniversa 11 ani de activitate. Pe această platformă vizitatorii pot găsi o bază de date cu toate agenţiile de turism din România, oferte, evenimente, târguri de turism din România, peste 200 de interviuri, fotografii, linkuri utile celor din turism si nu numai. De asemenea, site-ul indexează publicaţiile de turism din ţara noastră, asociaţiile şi organizaţiile de turism, personalităţile din domeniu etc. Realizat de o echipă tânără, InfoTravelRomania.ro este frecventat circa 150.000 de vizitatori unici lunar, conform Google Analytics.Info TravelRomania.ro va fi prezent cu stand la Târgul de Turism al României(14 - 17 martie 2013), care este de altfel şi cea mai importantă manifestare de turism din România.\n\nAlte amănunte:\nPetre Dordea,\nGeneral Manager InfoTravelRomania.ro\npd@infotravelromania.ro','PETRE DORDEA: „InfoTravelRomania a lansat 7 site-uri pentru 7 destinaţii turistice preferate de români!”','','inherit','open','open','','1891-autosave-v1','','','2015-09-18 00:56:26','2015-09-17 22:56:26','',1891,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/09/18/1891-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(3894,1,'2015-08-20 02:50:48','2015-08-20 00:50:48','Macedonia de Est și Tracia - o regiune a Greciei continentale atacă piața turistică românească printr-o promovare asiduă, cu un discurs a la Democrit: ”Veniți și ne vizitați și veți reveni de bunăvoie!”\r\n\r\nPrimul argument este accesibilitatea: aproximativ 6 ore de mers cu mașina din București până la frontieră.

Sperăm să continuăm și cu alte materiale promoționale.”\r\n\r\nDIDYMOTICHO - Regi, prințese și Voltaire\r\n\r\nNe-a întîmpinat cu un aspect cultural vesel și eclectic. Vechea cetate ce apăra orașul, zidul fortificat are vreo 1000 de metri, Moscheea Marelui Sultan, Biserica Sf. Ecaterina sau Turnul cu ceas, învăluit de legenda regelui suedez Carol al XII-lea, sunt o parte din atracții zonei istorice. De sus, de pe ruinele cetății Pythio (dacă nu știați era locul preferat de refugiu al prințului Ioan Cantacuzino), străjuită de arcul zidurilor cetății antice ți se oferă panorama spectaculoasă a orașului. Locul e recomandat și pentru pic-nic. Merită urcat până acolo. Veți afla și istorii legate de împăratul Traian, de prințesa ce s-a aruncat din turnul ce-i poartă numele (deh, din motive de iubire forțată), de regele Carol al XII-lea ținut mai mult de un an prizonier aici, împreună cu 80 dintre ostașii săi. La începutul secolului al XVIII-lea celebrul Voltaire realiza o scriere inspirată de acele evenimente. În 1332 orașul a organizat Jocurile Olimpice. O curiozitate literară ni-l aduce în prim plan pe istoricul francez Geoffroy Villehardouin, unul dintre conducătorii cruciadei din 1204. El nota în scrierile sale: ”Didymotichon este cel mai puternic și unul dintre cele mai bogate orașe din Romania”, se referea desigur la Imperiul roman. Dar nouă ne-a sunat bine întâmplarea literară. Cât despre Marea Moschee a Sultanului aceasta a fost ridicată sub ocupația otomană, în timpul și de către celebru și în istoria noastră - Baiazid I zis și ”Fulgerul”. Construcția, aflată în prezent într-un amplu program de restaurare cu fonduri europene -, este emblematică pentru istoria Peninsulei Balcanice.\r\n\r\nSOUFLI - amintiri fine, de mătase\r\n\r\nE aproape de oraș. Dar deține un secret foarte bine păstrat. Este cel al prelucrării mătăsii. Situată chiar pe anticul ”drum al mătăsii” ce leagă Asia de Europa localitatea te întâmpină cu o raritate pe măsură - Muzeul Mătăsii. Curatorul este și ghid, pasiunea este și istorie iar toate acestea le primești cadou de la doamna Nic Jennings. Vizita prin micul muzeu organizat pe două etaje, este în același timp și o lecție de dragoste pentru mătase dar și un recital actoricesc de mare clasă. Am spune, de școală americană de marketing. Vizita noastră a fost mai tonică decât o cafea tare. De aceeași părere era și Michael Amiridis, viceguvernatorul Regiunii, care coordonează și politica de dezvoltare turistică a zonei care ne-a însoțit pe tot parcursul documentării.Drept urmare după ce am aflat cîte ceva din tainele mătăsii grecești de la Soufli, nu am putut pleca fără o amintire ”fină” din shop-ul Muzeului.\r\n\r\nXANTI - legenda unui cal regal\r\n\r\nNumele așezării este același de la fondarea ei. Adică din antichitate. Un ucenic de-al lui Herodot îl amintește în scrierile sale iar legenda (normal, suntem în Grecia), îl recunoaște drept fondator pe... Hercules. El ar fi ridicat așezarea în memoria prietenului său Adviru, ucis de caii sălbatici ai regelui Diomides. Numele orașului s-ar trage, spune legenda, de la Xantho, calul favorit al regelui.\r\n\r\nVechiul centru te invită la o plimbare. Încet te strecori printre magazinele cu antichități, pierzi noțiunea timpului, iar în piețele înțesate de cafenele observi viața liniștită a urmașilor neguțătorilor de tutun. S-au făcut mulți bani aici. Xanti ajunsese în perioada de glorie (între 1900 și 1930) un port renumit pentru comerțul cu tutun. Iar orașul era recunoscut datorită zecilor de fabrici de țigări, drept capitală a tutunului grecesc și unul dintre cei mai mari producători din Europa. Azi mai funcționează doar două. Orașul avea la acea vreme peste 100 de familii înstărite, care făcuseră avere din prelucrarea tutunului. Ele erau organizate în bresle și lucrau prin Birouri comerciale deschise în Grecia dar și în străinătate. O parte din averi a fost investită în ridicarea unor case somptuoase, bine împărțite în interior, după principii de familie. Familia a fost și a rămas legătura sfântă cu viața și afacerile la Xanti. Toate captivează. Poveștile de viață, arhitectura detaliilor, magazinele de familie de la parterul caselor și străzile înguste, multe dintre ele purtând numele milionarilor care locuiau pe acestea. Nu întâmplător Xanti, care are azi circa 100.000 de locuitori, mai este alintat și ca orașul ”miilor de culori”. În zona veche Palia Poli se află și Muzeul de etnografie și folclor al regiunii. Este organizat într-o clădire de patrimoniu. Poți străbate istoria la pas, admirând creațiile textile, îmbrăcămintea vremii, obiecte și instrumente ce amintesc de meșteșugurile locale, secțiuni de preparat tutunul și cafeaua, colecții de cărți, acte, reviste, timbre, piese de mobilier, seturi de porțelan etc. Cam tot ce au putut strânge muzeografii din... spuma istoriei. Dacă atmosfera calmă a trecutului v-a creat o stare de bine, după ce ați părăsit muzeul merită să hoinăriți reconfortant pe străduțele pline de ”capcane” artistice. Vă recomandăm să nu ”săriți” peste Casa Umbrelor. Proprietarul acestei expoziții, bazată pe efecte de lumini și umbre, artistul Triantafilos Vaitsis ține să ne demonstreze că ”întotdeauna ceea ce vedem este mai puțin decât ceea ce privim. Mi-am creat operele pe acest concept. Dorința mea a fost să fac vizibilul invizibil... Să văd ceea ce nu poate fi văzut”. Fiți pregătiți pentru a trăi o experiență culturală unică.\r\nDespre Via Egnatia, Kavala lui Mehmet Ali, păsări rare și mori de apă în numărul viitor.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul logistic al\r\nBiroului din București al Organizației Elene de Turism (EOT),\r\nPrefectura Regiunii Macedonia de Est și Tracia\r\nAgenției de turism HTS','Vara greceascala braț cu Democrit și Hercules (1), MAPAMOND MACEDONIA SI TRACIA nr.134','','publish','open','open','','vara-greceascala-brat-cu-democrit-si-hercules-1-mapamond-macedonia-si-tracia-nr-134','','','2015-08-20 16:17:42','2015-08-20 14:17:42','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=3894',0,'post','',0),(3895,1,'2015-08-20 02:46:48','2015-08-20 00:46:48','Macedonia de Est și Tracia - o regiune a Greciei continentale atacă piața turistică românească printr-o promovare asiduă, cu un discurs a la Democrit: ”Veniți și ne vizitați și veți reveni de bunăvoie!”\r\n\r\nPrimul argument este accesibilitatea: aproximativ 6 ore de mers cu mașina din București până la frontieră.

El ar fi ridicat așezarea în memoria prietenului său Adviru, ucis de caii sălbatici ai regelui Diomides. Numele orașului s-ar trage, spune legenda, de la Xantho, calul favorit al regelui.\r\n\r\nVechiul centru te invită la o plimbare. Încet te strecori printre magazinele cu antichități, pierzi noțiunea timpului, iar în piețele înțesate de cafenele observi viața liniștită a urmașilor neguțătorilor de tutun. S-au făcut mulți bani aici. Xanti ajunsese în perioada de glorie (între 1900 și 1930) un port renumit pentru comerțul cu tutun. Iar orașul era recunoscut datorită zecilor de fabrici de țigări, drept capitală a tutunului grecesc și unul dintre cei mai mari producători din Europa. Azi mai funcționează doar două. Orașul avea la acea vreme peste 100 de familii înstărite, care făcuseră avere din prelucrarea tutunului. Ele erau organizate în bresle și lucrau prin Birouri comerciale deschise în Grecia dar și în străinătate. O parte din averi a fost investită în ridicarea unor case somptuoase, bine împărțite în interior, după principii de familie. Familia a fost și a rămas legătura sfântă cu viața și afacerile la Xanti. Toate captivează. Poveștile de viață, arhitectura detaliilor, magazinele de familie de la parterul caselor și străzile înguste, multe dintre ele purtând numele milionarilor care locuiau pe acestea. Nu întâmplător Xanti, care are azi circa 100.000 de locuitori, mai este alintat și ca orașul ”miilor de culori”. În zona veche Palia Poli se află și Muzeul de etnografie și folclor al regiunii. Este organizat într-o clădire de patrimoniu. Poți străbate istoria la pas, admirând creațiile textile, îmbrăcămintea vremii, obiecte și instrumente ce amintesc de meșteșugurile locale, secțiuni de preparat tutunul și cafeaua, colecții de cărți, acte, reviste, timbre, piese de mobilier, seturi de porțelan etc. Cam tot ce au putut strânge muzeografii din... spuma istoriei. Dacă atmosfera calmă a trecutului v-a creat o stare de bine, după ce ați părăsit muzeul merită să hoinăriți reconfortant pe străduțele pline de ”capcane” artistice. Vă recomandăm să nu ”săriți” peste Casa Umbrelor. Proprietarul acestei expoziții, bazată pe efecte de lumini și umbre, artistul Triantafilos Vaitsis ține să ne demonstreze că ”întotdeauna ceea ce vedem este mai puțin decât ceea ce privim. Mi-am creat operele pe acest concept. Dorința mea a fost să fac vizibilul invizibil... Să văd ceea ce nu poate fi văzut”. Fiți pregătiți pentru a trăi o experiență culturală unică.\r\nDespre Via Egnatia, Kavala lui Mehmet Ali, păsări rare și mori de apă în numărul viitor.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul logistic al\r\nBiroului din București al Organizației Elene de Turism (EOT),\r\nPrefectura Regiunii Macedonia de Est și Tracia\r\nAgenției de turism HTS','Vara greceascala braț cu Democrit și Hercules (1), MAPAMOND MACEDONIA SI TRACIA nr.134','','inherit','open','open','','3894-revision-v1','','','2015-08-20 02:46:48','2015-08-20 00:46:48','',3894,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/08/20/3894-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(3896,1,'2015-08-20 02:30:39','2015-08-20 00:30:39','Golden Eagle Luxury Train care derulează proiectul de călătorie ”Comorile Persiei”, a străbătut țara noastră, la începutul acestei luni.\r\n\r\n[gallery ids=\"3935,3937,3938\"]\r\nTrenul, care a avut la bord 43 de turiști din SUA, din comunitatea Universității Stanford, a oprit în Gara Brașov de unde s-au făcut scurte vizite în oraș, la Sighișoara și Castelul Bran.

De unde vine? Din partea unor femei inteligente, și frumoase pe deasupra, care s-au gândit cu ani în urmă să pună la lucru magia tradițiilor - ia românească. Andreea Tănăsescu împreună cu alte femei pline de inițiativă a pus în mișcare inițiativa - La Blouse romaine - o comunitate online - care a urcat în lumea reală pentru a promova unul dintre cele mai consistente simboluri românești. Foarte atractivă pentru creatorii de artă - fie ei stiliști, designeri, pictori, etnologi, folcloriști, toți la un loc au devenit activiști ai frumosului modern și util.\r\n\r\n”Izvorul” a fost Henri Matisse care s-a inspirat din prietenia cu Theodor Pallady. La fel de adevărat e că Regina Maria a fost militanta cea mai de preț a acestor creații care au ajuns și pe linia frontului dar și în marile saloane regale. Yves Saint Laurent ori Tom Ford, designerul francez Philippe Guilet și câți alții, au urcat pe podiumuri ia românească stilizată. Mari vedete de la Holywood - Emma Stone, Jennifer Garner, Kate Moss, Halle Berry, Kourtney Kardashian şi multe alte celebrităţi (nu lipsește fermecătoarea Sophia Loren) au fost cucerite de farmecul bluzei româneşti. Ia nu se poate demoda pentru că ea nu a apărut ca o modă, ci exprimă tradiția, e un brand colectiv, e unul comunitar și reprezintă filonul românesc sublinia una dintre frumusețile autohtone.\r\n\r\nTot vorbim de inovație în turism. Iată, promovarea iei românești ca un brand ce iradiază din ce în ce mai mult turismul de evenimente a cerut și a obținut declararea unei Zile Universale a Iei. Fericită alegere - 24 iunie, chiar de Sărbătoarea Sînzienelor. Nu s-a întâmplat la București ci la Washingthon DC. Și a fost făcută chiar de către primarul Muriel Bowser. Mulțumiri. La ce s-a ajuns? Pe 24 iunie în 109 orașe din 48 de țări au fost derulate circa 150 de evenimente care au avut în centrul lor ia românească. De la Madrid până la Barcelona, din București până la Toronto și Sidney, de la Paris până la Roma, de la Holywood până la Chișinău, Huși ori Țara Oașului etc. E un succes care nu trebuie lăsat să se răcească. Pentru că Ziua Universală a iei, a frumosului durabil promovat de aceste Draculine neastâmpărate, e în fiecare zi. Și dacă tot e de Sărbătoarea de Sânziene, puneți-l la muncă și pe...

\r\n\r\n\r\nDe câte ori parcurg o lucrare ce poartă semnătura artistului fotograf George Avanu, mă încântă să descopăr noi perspective de abordare a unei destinații turistice. Așa se întâmplă și cu ”Sinaia”, album din seria ”Locuri unice din România”, dedicat acestei stațiuni regale. George Avanu începe cu ”perla coroanei”, suprinsă în toate anotimpurile sub explozia culorilor - Castelul Peleș. Ansablul arhitectural își conservă fascinația generată de îmbinarea stilurilor arhitectonice germane cu cele elvețiene. Ambiția lui George Avanu este să ne arate că Sinaia are și alte atracții demne de descoperit. El ne propune în jumătate din cele circa 100 de pagini ale albumului ”Sinaia”, produs de Age Art, un periplu spiritual și istoric. Îl urmăm la Palatul Știrbei, Vila Luminiș azi Casa memorială George Enescu, Casa Nicolae Iorga, Cazinoul Sinaia și Hotelul Palace (1912), Hotelul Caraiman (1881), Mănăstirea Sinaia (1690-1695), Școala Carmen Silva, Vilele Emil Costinescu, Candiano Popescu, Carola, unde a locuit Yehudi Menuhin, Casa Slătineanu etc. Merită să te întovărășești la drum cu recomandările artistului fotograf.\r\n\r\nMUNTELE ATHOS în călătoriile lui Ionuț Riteș\r\n![\"carte](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/carte-athos.jpg\")
\r\n\r\n\r\nUn drum spre Muntele Athos, reprezintă o incursiune a spiritului într-o istorie a credinței că omul este creația unei dumnezeiri care s-a întâmplat o singură dată pe pământ. Dacă ajungeți acolo, și autorul a fost de peste 25 de ori, veți descoperi o lume obișnuită să trăiască în ritmul ei, simplu dar frumos. Sfântul Munte Ahtos sau Athon, al cărui nume ar veni de la Athos, un supranume al zeului Joe (Jupiter), care avea un templu pe unul dintre vârfurile muntelui, este inima ortodoxiei. El e adăpostit de o peninsulă lungă de 60 de kilometri, cu o arie totală de 360 de kilometri. Zona naturală a fost cercetată și de Jacques-Yves Cousteau, care în explorările sale a ajuns la rezultate uluitoare. Ionuț Riteș ne relatează în cartea sa - ”Cu picioarele pe Pământ - Povestea pelerinajelor mele în Sfântul Munte Athos” - o parte din experiențele inițiatice pe care le-a trăit acolo. Cu discreție maximă el reușește să ofere fotografii expresive despre locul unde Dumnezeu a trimis ”bărbați din toată lumea, ca să viețuiască în curățenie, după chipul îngerilor”. Cartea (142 de pagini) a văzut lumina tiparului la editura ”Vis de vacanță” și a beneficiat de susținerea Autorității de Turism a Greciei și a Domeniilor Ostrov. Pentru colecționari precizăm că ea poartă ștampila Sfântului Munte Athos și autograful autorului.\r\n\r\nNOVACI - monografie a la Dărvăreanu\r\n![\"carte](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/carte-novaci.jpg\")
\r\n\r\n\r\nMonografiile dedicate așezărilor au o mare calitate - încearcă să strîngă toate documentele la un loc - pentru a lăsa urmașilor, o lucrare de referință, despre ceea ce am fost și am durat. Dar tot ele mai au și un mare defect - acela că poate sufoca cititorul neavizat cu informații puțin relevante pentru un context național. Ambele însă pot impresiona dacă cel care le întocmește este un om pasionat de cultură. Așa s-a întâmplat și cu ”Monografia orașului Novaci” trimisă la redacție de autorul său Constantin I. Dărvăreanu. Un intelectual mândru de comunitatea din care face parte, care a și întemeiat un Muzeu privat, dedicat vieții novăcenilor. Monografia (circa 500 de pagini) a fost tipărită la Editura Cetatea Deva. Din numeroasele informații și reproduceri fotografice le-am selectat pe acelea ce se referă la modul de organizare a acestei comunității - renumit ”cuib de păstori, ciobani și oieri” ce și-a croit destinul în munți. Pădurile sunt și azi administrate de Obști, care cândva au fost susținute de Banca Populară ”Gilortul” înființată în 1902, la inițiativa lui Dumitru Brezulescu. A fost primul președinte al instituției dar și una din marile personalități ale Novaciului.\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON','Sinaia regala a lui George Avanu, BIBLIOTECA nr.135-136','','publish','open','open','','sinaia-regala-a-lui-george-avanu-biblioteca-nr-135','','','2015-09-26 15:30:38','2015-09-26 13:30:38','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=3969',0,'post','',0),(3902,1,'2015-08-20 14:14:06','2015-08-20 12:14:06','În ziua în care voi deschide televizorul, paginile unui ziar sau ale unei reviste, voi intra pe net și voi... consuma în paralel cu ”Farmacia inima Catena!” și un spot publicitar de genul ”Stațiunea inimii Covasna!”, atunci voi fi bucuros.

Un pachet turistic într-o stațiune interesează mai mult pe un travel agent decât pe un medic. Pentru orice bătaie de pleoape există o pastilă. Fiecare pastilă este însă comisionabilă.\r\nDar eu rămân un optimist incurabil. Ziua în care voi deschide televizorul, paginile unui ziar sau reviste și voi... consuma în paralel cu ”Farmacia inima Catena!” și un spot publicitar de genul ”Stațiunea inimii Covasna!” va veni cu siguranță. Ea ar putea fi chemată mai repede de această branșă din industria turistică ce trebuie să se înhame la căruța promovării. Pentru că deocamdată e înțepenită la faza de... enunț. \r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Turismul balnear versus saci de medicamente, EDITORIAL nr.134','','inherit','open','open','','3902-revision-v1','','','2015-08-20 14:14:06','2015-08-20 12:14:06','',3902,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/08/20/3902-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(3905,1,'2015-08-20 16:12:36','2015-08-20 14:12:36','','Fly Arabia 005','','inherit','open','open','','fly-arabia-005','','','2015-08-20 16:12:36','2015-08-20 14:12:36','',3885,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Fly-Arabia-005.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3906,1,'2015-08-20 16:12:38','2015-08-20 14:12:38','','Fly Arabia 111','','inherit','open','open','','fly-arabia-111','','','2015-08-20 16:12:38','2015-08-20 14:12:38','',3885,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Fly-Arabia-111.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3907,1,'2015-08-20 16:12:38','2015-08-20 14:12:38','','Fly Efendi 3','','inherit','open','open','','fly-efendi-3','','','2015-08-20 16:12:38','2015-08-20 14:12:38','',3885,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Fly-Efendi-3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3908,1,'2015-08-20 16:12:39','2015-08-20 14:12:39','','FlyArabia 120','','inherit','open','open','','flyarabia-120','','','2015-08-20 16:12:39','2015-08-20 14:12:39','',3885,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/FlyArabia-120.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3909,1,'2015-08-20 16:13:14','2015-08-20 14:13:14','În toamnă se vor împlini 3 ani de când flydubai a început să opereze și pe piața românească, de pe Aeroportul Internațional Otopeni București!

Suntem esența a ceea ce reprezintă Dubaiul. Încredere, calitate, competitivitate. Iar serviciile oferite de noi îndeplinesc toate aceste cerințe. Scopul nostru principal a fost acela de a mări frecvențele săptămânale dar de a conserva prețul biletelor la un nivel accesibil.

Același lucru este făcut și de celelalte companii aeriene din Emirate, precum Emirates care conectează metropola cu restul lumii. Dubai este o destinație verde pe care o promovăm prin fiecare prezență a noastră în aeroporturile lumii. Când urcă în avion turistul se familiarizează deja cu atmosfera din Dubai. E drept că am fost ajutați foarte mult în strategia noastră de promovare și de eliminare a vizelor pentru turiștii din țara dumneavoastră. Emirates este un transportator aerian global, iar flydubai este o companie cu avioane moderne, dar cu dimensiuni adaptate pentru țările pe care le conectează. Cu zboruri sigure și regulate.\n\n- Sunteți reprezentati în România de către compania World Travel, condusă de doi specialiști (Carmen & Nicolae Demetriade) apreciați în mediul românesc dar și internațional de afaceri. Pe ce direcții vedeți dezvoltarea acestei colaborări?\n\n- A, eu chiar aș spune că ei sunt patriarhi în travel. Când am început zborurile cu flydubai alegerea acestor parteneri a fost una naturală deoarece aveau o reputație profesională atât în turism cât și în cel al reprezentării companiilor aeriene. O cunoșteam din colaborarea pe care o aveau deja cu Emirates. În cele mai multe din situații aceste parteneriate se bazează în principal pe suportul logistic. Noi ajutăm astfel reprezentanții de la București să ia decizii corecte iar ei ne sprijină prin foarte buna cunoaștere a pieței locale.\n\n- Poate e prea devreme pentru o evaluare. Cu toate acestea care este opinia dumneavoastră despre consumatorul român de călătorii și vacanțe care folosește rutele flydubai? Merită să te bați pentru buzunarul turistului român???\n\n- Da, evident! Deși turistul român nu este unul dispus să plătească foarte mult. Dar, lucru important pentru noi, el cheltuiește în mod constant. De altfel zburăm cu business-class, ocupată tot timpul. În mod cert piața românească are un mare potențial, este mult mai dinamică comparativ cu cea a vecinilor ei, ca de exemplu Serbia sau Bulgaria.\n\n- N-ar trebui să fiți mai agresivi pe piața românească? Poate în consolidarea imaginii de brand printr-o promovare mai consistentă? Poate prin zboruri noi de pe alte aeroporturi românești?\n\n- Pentru noi a fost foarte important să ne poziționăm corect pe piața românească astfel încât să putem asigura o conexiune rapidă cu Dubai-ul. În prezent am ajuns la trei zboruri pe săptămână. Eliminarea vizelor turistice pentru români a însemnat o creștere cu aproape 40% a fluxului de călători. În acest context ne gândim să ajungem la zboruri zilnice pentru a avea cu adevărat un produs consistent. Pentru că dacă nu ai o asemenea frecvență nu poți lucra cu un produs complet. În același timp împreună cu specialiștii noștri și reprezentanții din România luăm în calcul prezența companiei noastre și pe alte aeroporturi cum ar fi Cluj și Iași. Dar, revin, pentru noi cel mai important e să ajungem ca să avem zboruri zilnice pe Aeroportul Internațional de la Otopeni.\n\n- În 2014 Dubai-ul a primit circa 13,2 milioane de vizitatori! Câți dintre aceștia au beneficiat de serviciile flydubai? Câți români au folosit compania dvs. în aceeași perioadă?\n\n- Nu am cum să vă dau cifre exacte. Pentru că sunt peste o sută de companii aeriene care aterizează pe aeroportul din Dubai. Circa 70% din călători au ca destinație finală Dubai. Să nu uităm că noi suntem linia aeriană care deservește în principal destinația Dubai. În ceea ce-i privește pe pasagerii români nu am un tablou exact, dar vă puteți face o imagine luând în calcul faptul că avem trei zboruri pe săptămână cu un grad de ocupare mediu cred, de peste 70%.\n\n- Care sunt cele mai frecventate conexiuni de vacanță asigurate de companie ?\n\n- Maldive, Sri Lanka, Oman, a fost și Nepal, dar acum destinația e afectată de catastrofele naturale. Zanzibar este surpriza acestui an. Ea a devenit rapid o destinație foarte populară în estul Europei. Cehii, spre exemplu, sunt mari amatori de... Zanzibar.

Vechea cetate ce apăra orașul, zidul fortificat are vreo 1000 de metri, Moscheea Marelui Sultan, Biserica Sf. Ecaterina sau Turnul cu ceas, învăluit de legenda regelui suedez Carol al XII-lea, sunt o parte din atracții zonei istorice. De sus, de pe ruinele cetății Pythio (dacă nu știați era locul preferat de refugiu al prințului Ioan Cantacuzino), străjuită de arcul zidurilor cetății antice ți se oferă panorama spectaculoasă a orașului. Locul e recomandat și pentru pic-nic. Merită urcat până acolo. Veți afla și istorii legate de împăratul Traian, de prințesa ce s-a aruncat din turnul ce-i poartă numele (deh, din motive de iubire forțată), de regele Carol al XII-lea ținut mai mult de un an prizonier aici, împreună cu 80 dintre ostașii săi. La începutul secolului al XVIII-lea celebrul Voltaire realiza o scriere inspirată de acele evenimente. În 1332 orașul a organizat Jocurile Olimpice. O curiozitate literară ni-l aduce în prim plan pe istoricul francez Geoffroy Villehardouin, unul dintre conducătorii cruciadei din 1204. El nota în scrierile sale: ”Didymotichon este cel mai puternic și unul dintre cele mai bogate orașe din Romania”, se referea desigur la Imperiul roman. Dar nouă ne-a sunat bine întâmplarea literară. Cât despre Marea Moschee a Sultanului aceasta a fost ridicată sub ocupația otomană, în timpul și de către celebru și în istoria noastră - Baiazid I zis și ”Fulgerul”. Construcția, aflată în prezent într-un amplu program de restaurare cu fonduri europene -, este emblematică pentru istoria Peninsulei Balcanice.\n\nSOUFLI - amintiri fine, de mătase\n\nE aproape de oraș.

Curatorul este și ghid, pasiunea este și istorie iar toate acestea le primești cadou de la doamna Nic Jennings. Vizita prin micul muzeu organizat pe două etaje, este în același timp și o lecție de dragoste pentru mătase dar și un recital actoricesc de mare clasă. Am spune, de școală americană de marketing. Vizita noastră a fost mai tonică decât o cafea tare. De aceeași părere era și Michael Amiridis, viceguvernatorul Regiunii, care coordonează și politica de dezvoltare turistică a zonei care ne-a însoțit pe tot parcursul documentării.Drept urmare după ce am aflat cîte ceva din tainele mătăsii grecești de la Soufli, nu am putut pleca fără o amintire ”fină” din shop-ul Muzeului.\n\nXANTI - legenda unui cal regal\n\nNumele așezării este același de la fondarea ei. Adică din antichitate. Un ucenic de-al lui Herodot îl amintește în scrierile sale iar legenda (normal, suntem în Grecia), îl recunoaște drept fondator pe... Hercules. El ar fi ridicat așezarea în memoria prietenului său Adviru, ucis de caii sălbatici ai regelui Diomides. Numele orașului s-ar trage, spune legenda, de la Xantho, calul favorit al regelui.\n\nVechiul centru te invită la o plimbare. Încet te strecori printre magazinele cu antichități, pierzi noțiunea timpului, iar în piețele înțesate de cafenele observi viața liniștită a urmașilor neguțătorilor de tutun. S-au făcut mulți bani aici. Xanti ajunsese în perioada de glorie (între 1900 și 1930) un port renumit pentru comerțul cu tutun. Iar orașul era recunoscut datorită zecilor de fabrici de țigări, drept capitală a tutunului grecesc și unul dintre cei mai mari producători din Europa. Azi mai funcționează doar două. Orașul avea la acea vreme peste 100 de familii înstărite, care făcuseră avere din prelucrarea tutunului. Ele erau organizate în bresle și lucrau prin Birouri comerciale deschise în Grecia dar și în străinătate. O parte din averi a fost investită în ridicarea unor case somptuoase, bine împărțite în interior, după principii de familie. Familia a fost și a rămas legătura sfântă cu viața și afacerile la Xanti. Toate captivează. Poveștile de viață, arhitectura detaliilor, magazinele de familie de la parterul caselor și străzile înguste, multe dintre ele purtând numele milionarilor care locuiau pe acestea. Nu întâmplător Xanti, care are azi circa 100.000 de locuitori, mai este alintat și ca orașul ”miilor de culori”. În zona veche Palia Poli se află și Muzeul de etnografie și folclor al regiunii. Este organizat într-o clădire de patrimoniu. Poți străbate istoria la pas, admirând creațiile textile, îmbrăcămintea vremii, obiecte și instrumente ce amintesc de meșteșugurile locale, secțiuni de preparat tutunul și cafeaua, colecții de cărți, acte, reviste, timbre, piese de mobilier, seturi de porțelan etc. Cam tot ce au putut strânge muzeografii din... spuma istoriei. Dacă atmosfera calmă a trecutului v-a creat o stare de bine, după ce ați părăsit muzeul merită să hoinăriți reconfortant pe străduțele pline de ”capcane” artistice. Vă recomandăm să nu ”săriți” peste Casa Umbrelor. Proprietarul acestei expoziții, bazată pe efecte de lumini și umbre, artistul Triantafilos Vaitsis ține să ne demonstreze că ”întotdeauna ceea ce vedem este mai puțin decât ceea ce privim.

E situată la Marea Baltică. E membră a Uniunii Europene din 2004. Lituania se remarcă prin viața dinamică împletită cu cea a tradițiilor.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"3930,3931,3932,3933\"]\r\n\r\nInfrastructura sa este recunoscută ca fiind cea mai modernă din Europa oferind turiștilor posibilități rapide de deplasare prin țară. Are o populație de aproximativ 3,5 milioane de locuitori dar primește anual 2 milioane de turiști. Deși este o țară ”de buzunar” Lituania deține 3 aeroporturi internaționale ce asigură condiții excelente traficului aerian și afluxului de turiști, majoritatea dintre aceștia provenind din țările limitrofe: Belarus, Rusia, Polonia, Estonia etc. România este evidențiată în statistici cu 4.200 de turiști care au consumat minim o noapte de cazare în Lituania, anul trecut. Asta în condițiile în care nu există o legătură aeriană directă între București și Vilnius.\r\n\r\nSuntem atractivi pentru această țară!? În mod cert. Acesta este și motivul pentru care Bucureștiul a găzduit o întâlnire cu media de specialitate dar și cu mediul de afaceri din industria de travel. Evenimentul a fost organizat sub auspiciile Ambasadei Lituaniei la București și al noului ambasador ES Arvydas Pocius. Prezentarea potențialului turistic a fost susținută - prin spoturi video, broșuri și pliante, CD-uri etc -, de către dr. Raimonda Balniene, de la Departamentul de Stat pentru Turism ai Republicii Lituania. Hotelul Europa Royale din Capitală (proprietatea unui grup de investitori din această țară) a oferit participanților și prilejul de a se familiariza cu o serie de produse și băuturi tradiționale ce individualizează oferta gastronomică a acestei țări. Excelența Sa aprecia că ”Frumusețile naturale, moștenirea istorică bogată, gastronomia locală, posibilitățile de tratament balnear și curative, sunt tot atâtea atuuri pentru a pleca într-o vacanță spre această țară. La rândul său doamna Balniene, a selectat câteva date concludente pentru dinamica turismului lituanian. El asigură 4,2% din PIB-ul țării în condițiile în care furnizează la bugetul anual circa 1,7 miliarde de euro. 2015 cunoaște un trend crescător ce ar putea fi cu 5% mai mare comparativ cu anul trecut. City break-urile, turismul cultural și cel de sănătate sunt vedetele ofertei turistice pentru cei 5 milioane de vizitatori anuali. Și, evident... Ambra (chihlimbarul). Acesta pare a fi ”amprenta genetică” și elementul principal de promovare al lituanienilor care o folosesc la produs amulete, bijuterii, obiecte de artizanat, în cure de sănătate, în distileriile tradiționale și chiar în creațiile de modă.\r\n\r\nVilnius este capitala, centrul cultural și turistic al țării. O bijuterie de oraș, cu monumente unicat și rădăcini înfipte adânc în memoria istoriei. Orașul se mândrește cu cea mai veche Universitate din Europa de Est, o bibliotecă publică ce funcționează din 1370. Deține o colecție cu peste 5 milioane de volume, adăpostite de o clădire cu o arhitectură unică. Ea armonizează stilurile gothic, baroc și renascentist. Nu miră pe nimeni că numeroase monumente figurează în patrimoniul mondial UNESCO, deoarece orașul în sine este impresionant prin monumentalitate. Dar Lituania are și o Veneție proprie, la numai 28 de kilometri de Vilnius, în exoticul oraș Trakai. Pierdut între apele lacului Galve, castelul din Trakai a fost reședința de vară a marilor duci lituanieni. El datează din secolul al XIV-lea și este singurul castel din zonă construit pe o insulă. Sigur, dacă ajungeți aici nu puteți rata Kernave cu situl său arheologic ce datează din secolul al IX-lea. Clima blândă a permis dezvoltarea așezării, prima atestată documentar din Lituania. Kernave se află pe o listă specială a UNESCO, unde se regăsesc 71 dintre cele mai prețioase valori de patrimoniu mondial. Sunt doar câteva argumente de a vizita la ea acasă...

Sheraton Bucharest Hotel va avea 270 de camere, două restaurante, un bar și un club lounge.\nInternational Business Trading a fost preluată la finele anului trecut în urma unei tranzacții - aprobată de Consiliul Concurenței - de către Tatika Investment din Cipru.

Președintele acestuia Petre Dordea, a patronat primele ediții ale Seminarului de Turism Montan respectiv al Forumului Național al Ghizilor de Turism, găzduite de hotelul Belvedere din Predeal.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_3630\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"1024\"] Petre Dordea - CEO InfoTravelRomania[/caption]\r\n\r\nCele mai dezbătute teme de la Seminarul Montan, au fost scăderea tarifelor prin aplicarea taxei de 9% la pachetele turistice ce includ masă și cazare; efectul benefic al intrării în circuitul intern al voucherelor de vacanță din ianuarie 2015; importanța campaniilor de vânzări tip early booking în accelerarea vânzărilor de vacanțe. Cel mai tensionant aspect l-a reprezentat relațiile agențiilor de turism cu hotelurile.\r\n\r\n\r\nParticipanții au acuzat, în cele mai multe cazuri fără argumente, lipsa de loialitate a hotelierilor și proprietarilor de pensiuni și vice-versa, în ceea ce privește tarifele de vânzare. În acest context s-a văzut că încă nu s-a înțeles rolul sistemelor globale de vânzări în industria hotelieră. Un prim efect - zecile de anunțuri de vânzare a vilelor și hoteluri din zona montană. Lipsa de realism se plătește.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"3631,3632,3633,3634\"]\r\n\r\nLa Forumul Național al Ghizilor de Turism, problematica s-a concentrat, cum era de așteptat pe raporturile dintre agențiile de turism și ghizii practicanți. De ce ghizii români sunt plătiți sub nivelul pieței europene? De ce nu este sancționată activitatea unor ghizi străini care nu au dreptul să practice independent ghidăria pe teritoriul României? Cine are competențe să ateste și licențieze ghizii de turism? Cât pierde statul român prin neglijarea acestor aspecte? Sunt întrebări la care s-au oferit câteva răspunsuri. Altele sunt așteptate la edițiile următoare.\r\n\r\n”Am dorit să ne implicăm pe aceste segmente importante pentru dezvoltarea turismului românesc. Constatăm o lipsă de interes și o inerție a mediului de afaceri din turism, care dorește să obțină avantaje dar nu se implică și nu oferă soluții pentru a ajunge la ele. Vom continua și cu alte evenimente. Mulțumim sponsorilor care ne-au susținut dar mai ales participanților care s-au dovedit foarte activi și interesați de lumea în care își asigură pâinea. Urmează pe 26 martie a II-a ediție a Incoming Romania Travel Forum, organizată în parteneriat cu Inovation Romania și Clubul Presei de Turism - FIJET Romania” - ne-a declarat în exclusivitate Petre Dordea.\r\n\r\nVASILE COSTRUȘ\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nPARALELA ALIN BURCEA a împlinit 25 de ani\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"3635,3636,3637,3638\"]\r\n\r\nO aniversare sau o stație? Depinde cum privim lucrurile. Paralela 45, una dintre primele agenții de turism private din România a împlinit un sfert de secol de activitate, coordonată ca și la înființare din sediul său de pe Bulevardul Elisabeta din București. Fără îndoială imaginea de marcă a tour-operatorului este Alin Burcea, cum tot atât de adevărat este că Alin Burcea, nu poate fi scos din rama tabloului Paralela 45. N-ar mai avea șarm și nici unicitate în show-ul afacerilor. Burcea va reaminti mereu că în momentul zero, omul cu care a fondat Paralela 45 Turism a fost și rămâne în amintire Adrian Grigorescu. Este unul dintre creatorii ANAT, dar a fost la începuturi și președintele organizației (1991-1993). Fix peste zece ani ajungea secretar de stat la Turism în echipa de aur a lui Dan Matei Agathon, iar prin 2007 susținea, în premieră, lucrarea de doctorat ”Turismul de afaceri în România”. În oglindă compania crește organic odată cu el, pentru că una s-a tras după cealaltă. În 1996 Paralela 45 lansa primul charter spre Antalya.\r\n\r\nAzi lumea de travel pe care o vinde a ajuns să fie mult mai mare și diversă. Kenya, Statele Unite, India, Austrialia Noua Zeelandă, Insule exotice, croaziere etc. Dar peste toate acestea se află o pălărie frumoasă care se numește Grecia, și unul dintre cei durabili prieteni ai lui - Akis Spiratos, cândva ghid, de ani buni proprietar al agenției grecești de turism Captain Nemo. În total Paralela 45 are în portofoliu peste 100 de pachete și circuite. Comercializarea lor a generat în 2014 o cifră de afaceri de 40 de milioane de euro, sumă care se speră că va urca în acest an la 45. Alin Burcea a mizat pe familie și echipă alcătuit azi din 200 de angajați. Ea face diferența în lumea de travel românească, conform sloganului principal al companiei.\r\n\r\nDespre Alin Burcea și acest eveniment s-a vorbit elegant la conferința de presă aniversară (Monica Anghel, Mircea Geoană, Ondina Dobridan, GM-ul Paralelei, Dragoș Anastasiu, scriitorul și editorul Marian Constantinescu) etc. De petrecut, s-a petrecut ca pe vremurile bune, la hotelul Rozmarin din Predeal, într-un carnaval tematic încins de show-ul fără vârstă al lui Adrian Enache și DJ Vasile.\r\n\r\nM.

Așa se întâmplă și cu ”Sinaia”, album din seria ”Locuri unice din România”, dedicat acestei stațiuni regale. George Avanu începe cu ”perla coroanei”, suprinsă în toate anotimpurile sub explozia culorilor - Castelul Peleș. Ansablul arhitectural își conservă fascinația generată de îmbinarea stilurilor arhitectonice germane cu cele elvețiene. Ambiția lui George Avanu este să ne arate că Sinaia are și alte atracții demne de descoperit. El ne propune în jumătate din cele circa 100 de pagini ale albumului ”Sinaia”, produs de Age Art, un periplu spiritual și istoric. Îl urmăm la Palatul Știrbei, Vila Luminiș azi Casa memorială George Enescu, Casa Nicolae Iorga, Cazinoul Sinaia și Hotelul Palace (1912), Hotelul Caraiman (1881), Mănăstirea Sinaia (1690-1695), Școala Carmen Silva, Vilele Emil Costinescu, Candiano Popescu, Carola, unde a locuit Yehudi Menuhin, Casa Slătineanu etc. Merită să te întovărășești la drum cu recomandările artistului fotograf.\r\n\r\n\r\nMUNTELE ATHOS în călătoriile lui Ionuț Riteș\r\n\r\nUn drum spre Muntele Athos, reprezintă o incursiune a spiritului într-o istorie a credinței că omul este creația unei dumnezeiri care s-a întâmplat o singură dată pe pământ. Dacă ajungeți acolo, și autorul a fost de peste 25 de ori, veți descoperi o lume obișnuită să trăiască în ritmul ei, simplu dar frumos. Sfântul Munte Ahtos sau Athon, al cărui nume ar veni de la Athos, un supranume al zeului Joe (Jupiter), care avea un templu pe unul dintre vârfurile muntelui, este inima ortodoxiei. El e adăpostit de o peninsulă lungă de 60 de kilometri, cu o arie totală de 360 de kilometri. Zona naturală a fost cercetată și de Jacques-Yves Cousteau, care în explorările sale a ajuns la rezultate uluitoare. Ionuț Riteș ne relatează în cartea sa - ”Cu picioarele pe Pământ - Povestea pelerinajelor mele în Sfântul Munte Athos” - o parte din experiențele inițiatice pe care le-a trăit acolo. Cu discreție maximă el reușește să ofere fotografii expresive despre locul unde Dumnezeu a trimis ”bărbați din toată lumea, ca să viețuiască în curățenie, după chipul îngerilor”. Cartea (142 de pagini) a văzut lumina tiparului la editura ”Vis de vacanță” și a beneficiat de susținerea Autorității de Turism a Greciei și a Domeniilor Ostrov. Pentru colecționari precizăm că ea poartă ștampila Sfântului Munte Athos și autograful autorului.\r\n\r\nNOVACI - monografie a la Dărvăreanu\r\n\r\nMonografiile dedicate așezărilor au o mare calitate - încearcă să strîngă toate documentele la un loc - pentru a lăsa urmașilor, o lucrare de referință, despre ceea ce am fost și am durat. Dar tot ele mai au și un mare defect - acela că poate sufoca cititorul neavizat cu informații puțin relevante pentru un context național. Ambele însă pot impresiona dacă cel care le întocmește este un om pasionat de cultură. Așa s-a întâmplat și cu ”Monografia orașului Novaci” trimisă la redacție de autorul său Constantin I. Dărvăreanu. Un intelectual mândru de comunitatea din care face parte, care a și întemeiat un Muzeu privat, dedicat vieții novăcenilor. Monografia (circa 500 de pagini) a fost tipărită la Editura Cetatea Deva. Din numeroasele informații și reproduceri fotografice le-am selectat pe acelea ce se referă la modul de organizare a acestei comunității - renumit ”cuib de păstori, ciobani și oieri” ce și-a croit destinul în munți. Pădurile sunt și azi administrate de Obști, care cândva au fost susținute de Banca Populară ”Gilortul” înființată în 1902, la inițiativa lui Dumitru Brezulescu. A fost primul președinte al instituției dar și una din marile personalități ale Novaciului.\r\n\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON','Sinaia regala a lui George Avanu, BIBLIOTECA nr.135','','inherit','open','open','','3969-revision-v1','','','2015-09-26 13:47:29','2015-09-26 11:47:29','',3969,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/09/26/3969-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(3972,1,'2015-09-26 15:12:51','2015-09-26 13:12:51','CARO – Hospitality Capital of IBSF Under 21\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nRomanian Snooker Federation (FRS), Innovation Travel and IBSF – International Billiards and Snooker Federation announced that the World Snooker Championship – IBSF, Under 21 in Bucharest will take place between 17th and 26th of July 2015, at Caro Hotel Complex, traditional partner of the Romanian Snooker Federation.

\r\nThe fees for the sightseeing line “Bucharest City Tour”, managed by Bucharest Autonomous Transportation Direction (RATB) remain at the same level as last year: respectively 25 lei/card (about 6 Euros) for adults and 10 lei/card (over 2 Euros) for children between 7 and 14 years of age. Children aged up to 7 years, accompanied by adults, enjoy free transport. The travel card is valid for 24 hours from the first validation and can be purchased in sightseeing buses. With a length of 15.4 kilometres, the sightseeing line is operated with 4 double-decker buses with 77 seats, circulating daily between the hours of 10:00 – 21:00. It has been available for Romanian or foreign tourists since the half of May. The route includes 14 stations and can be travelled in about 50 minutes – RATB informs. Tourist are provided with audio guides in Romanian, English, French and Italian, maps and leaflets with information about tourist attractions on route, as well as free wireless internet. For 2015, the company estimates that “Bucharest City Tour” will offer services to over 50,000 tourists, about 4,000 more than last year.\r\n\r\nTCNET – efficient solutions for hotels\r\n![\"Tc](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Tc-Net-engl.jpg\")

The event takes place within the strategic partnership concluded in 2013 with the American company Infor, in Top 3 of the greatest software services suppliers worldwide, who also developed the EzRMS platform. Niels Mekenkamp, manager of Hospitality Pre-Sales – EMEA, showed during a presentation in Bucharest that “International experience proves an extremely fast return of the investment: in several months since the implementation, hotels register growths of 4-7% of their incomes, without any additional cost growths. Regarding profitability, the general results, but also the tourism results, confirm growths with values between 50 and 70%”.\r\n\r\nDINO PARC in RÂȘNOV\r\n![\"Dino](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Dino-parc-engl.jpg\")
\r\nIt is located only 200 meters from Râșnov Fortress (Brașov County). It covers an area of 1.4 hectares and hosts the models of a number of 45 dinosaurs, the biggest being 22.4 meters in length and 20 meters in height, and the smallest of 30 centimetres. This is a part of Dino Parc patrimony, opened this month in Râșnov. The attraction is promoted as “The biggest dinosaurs park in South-Eastern Europe and the newest in the entire Europe”.

În opinia tânărului artist acest spațiu beneficiază un potențial uriaș încă neexploatat. “#PrinMehedinți” își propune să tragă un semnal de alarmă cu privire la zonele cu un potențial considerabil care se confruntă cu lipsa de viziune a autorităților. Îmi doresc să fi reuşit să surprind cu adevărat oamenii şi locurile, să fixez o parte din profunzimea ideilor și poveștilor pline de energie și autenticitate” - declara la vernisaj Victor Bogdan Gheorghiță.\r\n\r\n‘’Vreau să vă atrag atenția asupra esenței acestui demers. Am avut norocul de a mă plimba prin multe locuri din această frumoasă țară, iar Mehedințiul este unul ce-ți rămâne întipărit pe retină. De la chipul lui Decebal cioplit în stâncă până la Ponoare, până la pălinca de smochine, am redescoperit moștenirea acestui neam.

Brăţara va fi personalizată cu numele copilului, un număr de telefon al părinţilor şi numărul de telefon al Radio Vacanţa. Brăţările vor fi distribuite pe plajă şi prin intermediul farmaciilor Vivat dar şi în unităţile hoteliere care îşi vor dori acest produs, la recepţie. De asemenea, vor fi tipărite şi distribuite 25.000 de hărți cu staţiunile de pe litoral, dar şi cu traseele turistice din Dobrogea prin intermediul proiectului I-tour.ro.

În opinia tânărului artist acest spațiu beneficiază un potențial uriaș încă neexploatat. “#PrinMehedinți” își propune să tragă un semnal de alarmă cu privire la zonele cu un potențial considerabil care se confruntă cu lipsa de viziune a autorităților. Îmi doresc să fi reuşit să surprind cu adevărat oamenii şi locurile, să fixez o parte din profunzimea ideilor și poveștilor pline de energie și autenticitate” - declara la vernisaj Victor Bogdan Gheorghiță.\r\n\r\n‘’Vreau să vă atrag atenția asupra esenței acestui demers. Am avut norocul de a mă plimba prin multe locuri din această frumoasă țară, iar Mehedințiul este unul ce-ți rămâne întipărit pe retină. De la chipul lui Decebal cioplit în stâncă până la Ponoare, până la pălinca de smochine, am redescoperit moștenirea acestui neam. Nu înțeleg de ce aceste obiective nu au fost promovate, în condițiile în care Mehedinți este o zonă atât de bogată în atracții turistice” - sublinia producătorul Cristian Tabără, unul dintre invitații evenimentului.\r\n\r\nVASILE COSTRUȘ\r\n\r\nEUROMONITOR: Cele mai vizitate orașe din lume\r\n\r\nSurprinzător, sau poate că nu!

Anul acesta, vor fi oferite 20.000 de brăţări din Supertek 1, material asemănător hârtiei cerate, rezistent la apă, pe care se vor trece câteva elemente de identificare pentru a face uşoară găsirea copilului dacă se pierde pe plajă. Brăţara va fi personalizată cu numele copilului, un număr de telefon al părinţilor şi numărul de telefon al Radio Vacanţa. Brăţările vor fi distribuite pe plajă şi prin intermediul farmaciilor Vivat dar şi în unităţile hoteliere care îşi vor dori acest produs, la recepţie. De asemenea, vor fi tipărite şi distribuite 25.000 de hărți cu staţiunile de pe litoral, dar şi cu traseele turistice din Dobrogea prin intermediul proiectului I-tour.ro. Campania „Copiii nu se pierd, ajung la Radio Vacanţa” se desfăşoară în perioada 1 iunie - 1 septembrie. Noutatea acestui sezon este că Brățara de Vacanță va ajunge și în Delta Dunării.\r\n\r\nFERDINAND I S-A REÎNTORS LA COTROCENI\r\n\r\nUn Colocviu și o Expoziție dedicate împlinirii a 150 de ani de la nașterea Regelui Ferdinand I au fost organizate și găzduite de specialiștii Muzeului Naţional Cotroceni la sfârșitul lunii mai.

Așa se întâmplă și cu ”Sinaia”, album din seria ”Locuri unice din România”, dedicat acestei stațiuni regale. George Avanu începe cu ”perla coroanei”, suprinsă în toate anotimpurile sub explozia culorilor - Castelul Peleș. Ansablul arhitectural își conservă fascinația generată de îmbinarea stilurilor arhitectonice germane cu cele elvețiene. Ambiția lui George Avanu este să ne arate că Sinaia are și alte atracții demne de descoperit. El ne propune în jumătate din cele circa 100 de pagini ale albumului ”Sinaia”, produs de Age Art, un periplu spiritual și istoric. Îl urmăm la Palatul Știrbei, Vila Luminiș azi Casa memorială George Enescu, Casa Nicolae Iorga, Cazinoul Sinaia și Hotelul Palace (1912), Hotelul Caraiman (1881), Mănăstirea Sinaia (1690-1695), Școala Carmen Silva, Vilele Emil Costinescu, Candiano Popescu, Carola, unde a locuit Yehudi Menuhin, Casa Slătineanu etc. Merită să te întovărășești la drum cu recomandările artistului fotograf.\r\n\r\nMUNTELE ATHOS în călătoriile lui Ionuț Riteș\r\n\r\nUn drum spre Muntele Athos, reprezintă o incursiune a spiritului într-o istorie a credinței că omul este creația unei dumnezeiri care s-a întâmplat o singură dată pe pământ. Dacă ajungeți acolo, și autorul a fost de peste 25 de ori, veți descoperi o lume obișnuită să trăiască în ritmul ei, simplu dar frumos. Sfântul Munte Ahtos sau Athon, al cărui nume ar veni de la Athos, un supranume al zeului Joe (Jupiter), care avea un templu pe unul dintre vârfurile muntelui, este inima ortodoxiei. El e adăpostit de o peninsulă lungă de 60 de kilometri, cu o arie totală de 360 de kilometri. Zona naturală a fost cercetată și de Jacques-Yves Cousteau, care în explorările sale a ajuns la rezultate uluitoare. Ionuț Riteș ne relatează în cartea sa - ”Cu picioarele pe Pământ - Povestea pelerinajelor mele în Sfântul Munte Athos” - o parte din experiențele inițiatice pe care le-a trăit acolo. Cu discreție maximă el reușește să ofere fotografii expresive despre locul unde Dumnezeu a trimis ”bărbați din toată lumea, ca să viețuiască în curățenie, după chipul îngerilor”. Cartea (142 de pagini) a văzut lumina tiparului la editura ”Vis de vacanță” și a beneficiat de susținerea Autorității de Turism a Greciei și a Domeniilor Ostrov. Pentru colecționari precizăm că ea poartă ștampila Sfântului Munte Athos și autograful autorului.\r\n\r\nNOVACI - monografie a la Dărvăreanu\r\n\r\nMonografiile dedicate așezărilor au o mare calitate - încearcă să strîngă toate documentele la un loc - pentru a lăsa urmașilor, o lucrare de referință, despre ceea ce am fost și am durat. Dar tot ele mai au și un mare defect - acela că poate sufoca cititorul neavizat cu informații puțin relevante pentru un context național. Ambele însă pot impresiona dacă cel care le întocmește este un om pasionat de cultură. Așa s-a întâmplat și cu ”Monografia orașului Novaci” trimisă la redacție de autorul său Constantin I. Dărvăreanu. Un intelectual mândru de comunitatea din care face parte, care a și întemeiat un Muzeu privat, dedicat vieții novăcenilor. Monografia (circa 500 de pagini) a fost tipărită la Editura Cetatea Deva. Din numeroasele informații și reproduceri fotografice le-am selectat pe acelea ce se referă la modul de organizare a acestei comunității - renumit ”cuib de păstori, ciobani și oieri” ce și-a croit destinul în munți. Pădurile sunt și azi administrate de Obști, care cândva au fost susținute de Banca Populară ”Gilortul” înființată în 1902, la inițiativa lui Dumitru Brezulescu. A fost primul președinte al instituției dar și una din marile personalități ale Novaciului.\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON','Sinaia regala a lui George Avanu, BIBLIOTECA nr.135-136','','inherit','open','open','','3969-revision-v1','','','2015-09-26 14:25:02','2015-09-26 12:25:02','',3969,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/09/26/3969-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(3983,1,'2015-09-26 14:25:21','2015-09-26 12:25:21','E clar.

De unde vine? Din partea unor femei inteligente, și frumoase pe deasupra, care s-au gândit cu ani în urmă să pună la lucru magia tradițiilor - ia românească. Andreea Tănăsescu împreună cu alte femei pline de inițiativă a pus în mișcare inițiativa - La Blouse romaine - o comunitate online - care a urcat în lumea reală pentru a promova unul dintre cele mai consistente simboluri românești. Foarte atractivă pentru creatorii de artă - fie ei stiliști, designeri, pictori, etnologi, folcloriști, toți la un loc au devenit activiști ai frumosului modern și util.\r\n\r\n”Izvorul” a fost Henri Matisse care s-a inspirat din prietenia cu Theodor Pallady. La fel de adevărat e că Regina Maria a fost militanta cea mai de preț a acestor creații care au ajuns și pe linia frontului dar și în marile saloane regale. Yves Saint Laurent ori Tom Ford, designerul francez Philippe Guilet și câți alții, au urcat pe podiumuri ia românească stilizată. Mari vedete de la Holywood - Emma Stone, Jennifer Garner, Kate Moss, Halle Berry, Kourtney Kardashian şi multe alte celebrităţi (nu lipsește fermecătoarea Sophia Loren) au fost cucerite de farmecul bluzei româneşti. Ia nu se poate demoda pentru că ea nu a apărut ca o modă, ci exprimă tradiția, e un brand colectiv, e unul comunitar și reprezintă filonul românesc sublinia una dintre frumusețile autohtone.\r\n\r\nTot vorbim de inovație în turism. Iată, promovarea iei românești ca un brand ce iradiază din ce în ce mai mult turismul de evenimente a cerut și a obținut declararea unei Zile Universale a Iei. Fericită alegere - 24 iunie, chiar de Sărbătoarea Sînzienelor. Nu s-a întâmplat la București ci la Washingthon DC. Și a fost făcută chiar de către primarul Muriel Bowser. Mulțumiri. La ce s-a ajuns? Pe 24 iunie în 109 orașe din 48 de țări au fost derulate circa 150 de evenimente care au avut în centrul lor ia românească. De la Madrid până la Barcelona, din București până la Toronto și Sidney, de la Paris până la Roma, de la Holywood până la Chișinău, Huși ori Țara Oașului etc. E un succes care nu trebuie lăsat să se răcească. Pentru că Ziua Universală a iei, a frumosului durabil promovat de aceste Draculine neastâmpărate, e în fiecare zi. Și dacă tot e de Sărbătoarea de Sânziene, puneți-l la muncă și pe... Mircea Eliade.\r\n\r\nDracula începe să tremure datorită concurenței. Asta face bine turismului românesc.

E optimistă și entuziastă, spirit care a cam murit în marile orașe. Probabil natura dar și oamenii de la Poșaga au ajutat-o să-și creeze un discurs în care revine foarte des, cuvântul comunitate. Cât valorează el pe Valea Arieșului? Ne spune Ioana Joca!\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"4020,4021,4022,4023\"]\r\n\r\n- Cum și de unde a pornit proiectul turistic ”Lada de zestre”!?\r\n\r\n- Simplu: în vara lui 2012, primind un mic ajutor de la Primăria Poșaga, am reușit să realizez un trailer și 16 clipuri despre Comunitate. În acestea am surprins, în mare parte, ce a ramas traditional, autentic. Am postat aceste filmulețe pe Youtube și, în mai puțin de un an, am primit peste 10.000 vizionări (100% organic Reach). Încurajată de acest mic succes neașteptat, m-am gândit să mă folosesc de el în mod practic, construind câte ceva pentru Comunitate. Și, ce altceva putea fi decât un program compact care să însumeze (atât teoretic cât și practic) ce ar putea face un oaspete ca să se integreze & bucure, la modul cel mai sincer & armonios, de viața autentică din zonă?! Deși, pentru prima ediție - vara lui 2013 -, nu am avut decât 7 participanți, \'experimentul\' a fost 100% un succes!\r\n\r\n- Care a fost motivația alegerii zonei Valea Arieșului?\r\n\r\n- Poșaga reprezintă Comunitatea în care trăiesc bunicii din partea mamei & locul în care am făcut primii pași. În plus, în ultimii 10 ani, am făcut acolo cele doua filme ale mele, \"the Grandparents\" & \"a Transylvanian Tale\" - primul film reprezentând și primul pas în lupta mea de a pune Poșaga pe hartă, cum s-ar spune. ONG-ul meu, JJ Films & Culture, se ocupă exclusiv de păstrarea & promovarea a tot ceea ce a mai rămas autentic în Comunitatea Poșaga (situată pe Valea Arieșului, județul Alba). Am început mai mult în glumă, însă - în mai puțin de 3 ani - m-am trezit cu oaspeți străini interesați de proiectul meu turistic intitulat \"The Dowry-Box\" (Lada de Zestre). Pe scurt, timp de 12 zile, turiștii sunt invitați să trăiască, muncească & sărbătorească laolaltă cu localnicii. Împreună învață ce înseamnă să lucreze la cîmp, cu bivolii, vite, capre, ce presupune strânsul fânului, seceratul grâului, pâinea făcută la cuptorul cu lemne, lucrul la războiul de țesut etc. Nu lipsesc nici excursiile de o zi pentru a descoperi frumusețile naturale din zonă (rezervația Scărița Belioara, cascade, peșteri etc). Este o formă de turism cultural cum NU mai există în zonă și cum nu se practică la noi, în Transilvania, suficient.\r\n\r\n- Cum a reacționat Comunitatea Poșaga la nivel colectiv dar și individual?\r\n- S-au bucurat, la modul cel mai sincer, că cineva - în sfârșit! - pune în valoare tot ce a mai rămas tradițional acolo. Aș putea spune că sunt singura ( să nu mă bănuițiți de lipsă de modestie !) care, până acum, a încercat & început să faca turism - chiar dacă la un nivel mai neconvențional. Cel mai bine a reacționat familia Melinte - proprietara uneia dintre cele mai tradiționale Ferme din zonă - oferindu-și casa călătorilor străini ca și cum ar fi fost a lor! Și când spun tradițional, mă refer la faptul că oamenii respectivi (deși au avut opțiunea să se \"modernizeze\") au preferat să continue cu munca tradițională, la seceratul grâului folosind secera, la arat plugul tras de bivoli sau pologul, de dimineața până la asfințit, doar cu furca și grebla. Exemplele ar putea continua. Din 2013, timp de două ediții a \"The Dowry Box\" această familie dăruită a fost principala gazdă. Și a rămas și pentru vara lui 2015!\r\n\r\n - Ce oferte de turism promovezi și cum le promovezi? Care dintre ele s-au bucurat de apreciere din partea turiștilor străini?\r\n\r\n- Până în momentul de față, am avut două proiecte. Mari și late: \"The Dowry Box\" (Lada de Zestre) ce ajunge în această vară la a 3-a ediție și, desigur, \"Cooking Mish-Mash: the Transylvanian Way\" - un workshop de Weekend despre ce înseamnă să gătești în stilul Slow Food.\r\nÎncepand cu luna mai, Comunitatea Poșaga are propria pagina pe Internet (româna-engleză) și, în felul acesta, o să pot urca pe site mai multe proiecte. De exemplu avem unul nou intitulat \"Posaga Brunch\": tot timp de un Weekend, participanții vor avea ocazia să gătească la ceaun, să exploreze vecinătățile Comunității (cu o excursie de o zi pe un Platou muntos, iar în ziua următoare la o Comunitate înfrățită cu Poșaga - Ponor pe numele ei) și, nu în ultimul rând, să stea în jurul unui foc de tabără, plus să doarmă în fân, corturi, chiar în mijlocul Naturii!

E optimistă și entuziastă, spirit care a cam murit în marile orașe. Probabil natura dar și oamenii de la Poșaga au ajutat-o să-și creeze un discurs în care revine foarte des, cuvântul comunitate. Cât valorează el pe Valea Arieșului? Ne spune Ioana Joca!\r\n\r\n- Cum și de unde a pornit proiectul turistic ”Lada de zestre”!?\r\n\r\n- Simplu: în vara lui 2012, primind un mic ajutor de la Primăria Poșaga, am reușit să realizez un trailer și 16 clipuri despre Comunitate. În acestea am surprins, în mare parte, ce a ramas traditional, autentic. Am postat aceste filmulețe pe Youtube și, în mai puțin de un an, am primit peste 10.000 vizionări (100% organic Reach). Încurajată de acest mic succes neașteptat, m-am gândit să mă folosesc de el în mod practic, construind câte ceva pentru Comunitate. Și, ce altceva putea fi decât un program compact care să însumeze (atât teoretic cât și practic) ce ar putea face un oaspete ca să se integreze & bucure, la modul cel mai sincer & armonios, de viața autentică din zonă?! Deși, pentru prima ediție - vara lui 2013 -, nu am avut decât 7 participanți, \'experimentul\' a fost 100% un succes!\r\n\r\n- Care a fost motivația alegerii zonei Valea Arieșului?\r\n\r\n- Poșaga reprezintă Comunitatea în care trăiesc bunicii din partea mamei & locul în care am făcut primii pași. În plus, în ultimii 10 ani, am făcut acolo cele doua filme ale mele, \"the Grandparents\" & \"a Transylvanian Tale\" - primul film reprezentând și primul pas în lupta mea de a pune Poșaga pe hartă, cum s-ar spune. ONG-ul meu, JJ Films & Culture, se ocupă exclusiv de păstrarea & promovarea a tot ceea ce a mai rămas autentic în Comunitatea Poșaga (situată pe Valea Arieșului, județul Alba). Am început mai mult în glumă, însă - în mai puțin de 3 ani - m-am trezit cu oaspeți străini interesați de proiectul meu turistic intitulat \"The Dowry-Box\" (Lada de Zestre). Pe scurt, timp de 12 zile, turiștii sunt invitați să trăiască, muncească & sărbătorească laolaltă cu localnicii. Împreună învață ce înseamnă să lucreze la cîmp, cu bivolii, vite, capre, ce presupune strânsul fânului, seceratul grâului, pâinea făcută la cuptorul cu lemne, lucrul la războiul de țesut etc. Nu lipsesc nici excursiile de o zi pentru a descoperi frumusețile naturale din zonă (rezervația Scărița Belioara, cascade, peșteri etc). Este o formă de turism cultural cum NU mai există în zonă și cum nu se practică la noi, în Transilvania, suficient.\r\n\r\n- Cum a reacționat Comunitatea Poșaga la nivel colectiv dar și individual?\r\n- S-au bucurat, la modul cel mai sincer, că cineva - în sfârșit! - pune în valoare tot ce a mai rămas tradițional acolo. Aș putea spune că sunt singura ( să nu mă bănuițiți de lipsă de modestie !) care, până acum, a încercat & început să faca turism - chiar dacă la un nivel mai neconvențional. Cel mai bine a reacționat familia Melinte - proprietara uneia dintre cele mai tradiționale Ferme din zonă - oferindu-și casa călătorilor străini ca și cum ar fi fost a lor! Și când spun tradițional, mă refer la faptul că oamenii respectivi (deși au avut opțiunea să se \"modernizeze\") au preferat să continue cu munca tradițională, la seceratul grâului folosind secera, la arat plugul tras de bivoli sau pologul, de dimineața până la asfințit, doar cu furca și grebla. Exemplele ar putea continua. Din 2013, timp de două ediții a \"The Dowry Box\" această familie dăruită a fost principala gazdă. Și a rămas și pentru vara lui 2015!\r\n\r\n - Ce oferte de turism promovezi și cum le promovezi? Care dintre ele s-au bucurat de apreciere din partea turiștilor străini?\r\n\r\n- Până în momentul de față, am avut două proiecte. Mari și late: \"The Dowry Box\" (Lada de Zestre) ce ajunge în această vară la a 3-a ediție și, desigur, \"Cooking Mish-Mash: the Transylvanian Way\" - un workshop de Weekend despre ce înseamnă să gătești în stilul Slow Food.\r\nÎncepand cu luna mai, Comunitatea Poșaga are propria pagina pe Internet (româna-engleză) și, în felul acesta, o să pot urca pe site mai multe proiecte. De exemplu avem unul nou intitulat \"Posaga Brunch\": tot timp de un Weekend, participanții vor avea ocazia să gătească la ceaun, să exploreze vecinătățile Comunității (cu o excursie de o zi pe un Platou muntos, iar în ziua următoare la o Comunitate înfrățită cu Poșaga - Ponor pe numele ei) și, nu în ultimul rând, să stea în jurul unui foc de tabără, plus să doarmă în fân, corturi, chiar în mijlocul Naturii! Ce să spun, mă aștept în această vară la un număr frumușel de turiști.\r\n\r\n - Dă-mi exemplul unui produs specific zonei, care-i face pe turiștii străini să se lingă pe degete!\r\n\r\n- Hehehe!

Anual în Franța sunt organizate circa 1100 de expoziții și târguri, iar acest sector ce oferă 120.000 de locuri de muncă, furnizează venituri de 2,33 miliarde de euro. La rândul său turismul cultural este cel mai ofertant. El pune pe tava călătoriilor internaționale 44.000 de monumente istorice, dintre care 1.140 sunt muzee. Ca o idee Luvru a fost destinația cea mai vizitată în 2014, cu 9,3 milioane de vizitatori, 70% dintre aceștia fiind străini.

Cu un patrimoniu de peste 17.700 de hoteluri, dintre care circa 14.000 clasificate, respectiv cu 147.000 de restaurante (peste 13.600 funcționează numai la Paris), francezii se mai mândresc și cu faptul că peste 600 dintre acestea se individualizează prin stelele Michelin acordate de-a lungul anilor.

Dincolo de stilul alarmist propagat de canalele TV industria turistică încearcă să combată o zvonistica ieftină. Conform unui raport comunicat de SETE (Asociația Companiilor de Turism din Grecia, sinonim cu ANAT-ul nostru), în acest an Elada se aşteaptă să obțină din turism peste 14 miliarde de euro, ce vor proveni de pe urma a circa 25 de milioane de sosiri internaționale.\r\n\r\nDestinațiile clasice (Atena, Salonic, Creta, Corfu, Santorini, Zakintos, Mikonos etc) atrag o mare parte din călătorii internaționali. Dar grecii propun în fiecare an noi atracții pe care le scot din ”buzunarul de rezervă”. O parte sunt concentrate chiar în Macedonia de Est și Tracia - o regiune a Greciei continentale bogată în vestigii istorice, zone naturale, gastronomie și tradiții. Democrit spunea într-un discurs: ”Veniți și ne vizitați și veți reveni de bunăvoie!” Georgios Pavlidis, guvernatorul Regiunii întărește invitația. Plecăm spre noi locuri care vor fascina cu siguranță pe turiștii români, foarte apreciați și respectați, după cum spuneam în numărul trecut, și în această regiune grecească.\r\n\r\nDe la FILLIPI pe VIA EGNATIA\r\n\r\nFillippi, Kavala, Maroneia, Drama au în comun Via Egnatia. Vă mai aduceți aminte? E chiar celebru drum ce lega Roma, capitala imperiului, de coloniile sale. Încărcătura istorică este impresionantă iar siturile arheologice pe măsură. Fillipi, orașul antic, e un site ce nu trebuie ratat. Datează din secolul al IV-lea ÎCh și a fost construit de către Filip al II-lea. De aici i se trage și numele. Pe oriunde v-ați plimba veți atinge vestigiile importante ale orașului: biserici, amfiteatre, piața, toaletele publice (vespasienele), o presă pentru strivit strugurii etc. Din era creștină locul este marcat de prezența Apostolului Pavel căci locul în care se spune că a fost încarcerat de romani a devenit zonă de pelerinaj a creștinătății. De altfel, în apropiere se află un complex mănăstiresc care adăpostește Baptiserul Sfintei Lidia, primul creștin botezat de Sf. Pavel în Europa. Locul este un reper pentru toți creștinii nu doar cei aparținând ortodoxiei. Toate religiile sunt prezente aici pentru a se bucura de puterea apei de botez din pârâul ce curge în grădină, considerată de către credincioși că a fost sfințită prin lucrarea Sf. Apostol Pavel. Și tot aproape de Maroneia, ascuns într-o livadă de măslini se află un Amfiteatru roman cu o priveliște uluitoare la mare. El adăpostește periodic festivaluri și concerte de muzică clasică.\r\n\r\nKAVALA - pe urmele lui Mehmet Ali\r\n\r\nKavala înseamnă... călare. Dacă nu ai ști unde te afli ai crede că ești pe o insulă. Construcțiile cocoțate pe dealuri par că alunecă încet spre mare. E doar o iluzie optică. Imaginea de marcă a orașului e dată de Arcade (Kamares) vestigiile apeductului medieval ce parcă taie linia orizontului și de Imaret, o serie de drumuri construite de Mehmet Ali la 1817. Acropola cetății, farul, primăria orașului (ce amintește de Budapesta), toate sunt repere turistice. Străbătute la pas, străduțele vechi te conduc încet spre zona modernă, unde se află o impresionantă biserică închinată Sfîntului Pavel. Ea amintește tuturor că regiunea se află sub binecunvântarea prezenței sale pe aceste locuri.\r\nPriviți cu atenție leul care străjuiește una din trecerile pe sub apeduct. Este aceeași cu imaginea ce se regăsește și pe bancnotele euro emise de Grecia. Încă o remarcă. În piațeta orașului vechi ghidul care ne însoțește ne arată unica statuie a unui turc musulman care se află în Grecia. Și Casa Muzeu și statuia sunt legate de numele lui Mehmet Ali (1769–1849). O figură legendară, Pașă al Egiptului, el a trăit mai mulți ani la Kavala.\r\n\r\nDRAMA - păsări rare și mori de apă\r\n\r\nCuvântul de referință al orașului este apa. Ai senzația că orașul a fost construit pe un lac subteran, și probabil că așa și e degrabă ce mustește de râuri naturale ce izvorăsc cu forță din inima sa. Ce ne-a impresionat la edili? Modul în care știu să-și transforme vechile construcții, dîndu-le o nouă utilitate și deci și o altă identitate. Am vizitat o clădire nouă, cel puțin așa părea la prima vedere. Un hotel modern de 5 stele cu toate facilitățile actuale. Acesta a fost amenajat într-o clădire istorică unde se afla un depozit de tutun. Inutil să spunem că toate elementele arhitectonice și identitatea vizuală a acesteia au fost conservate și puse în valoare. O lecție de învățat.\r\n\r\nSigur, în acest context, vizitarea peșterii Aggitis aflată la 25 de kilometri de Drama a devenit o probă obligatorie. Cadrul natural oferit de pădurile muntelui Falakro constituie casa perfectă pentru izvoarele râului Aggitis, care de-a lungul a peste 30.000 de ani a creat peștera cu același nume. Vizitatorii pot parcurge în interiorul său un traseul lung de 500 de metri, amenajat special pentru amatorii de fotografii ori pur și simplu pentru primbări pe... promenada subterană. Locul a fost descoperit întâmplător de exploratorul francez Cousinery, la sfârșitul secolului al XVIII-lea. Forma acestei peșteri, aproape circulară a permis instalarea, în timpul ocupației otomane de la începutul secolului XX, a unei Mori de apă ce a stat la baza creării unui sistem de irigații în zonă. Impactul asupra vizitatorilor este dublat și de faptul că peștera beneficiază de o ieșire naturală, spectaculoasă dar foarte greu accesibilă. Aviz amatorilor de aventură.\r\nPentru că tot am atins acest capitol iubitorii de adrenalină au la dispoziție diverse oportunități. Doar le punctăm: fascinanta pădure Dadia, casa ultimelor păsări de pradă rare din Europa; programe de caiac-canoe și rafting în defileele râului Nestos; lacul Vistonida cu o floră și faună unice; peștera Ciclopului Polifem; delta râului Evros și multe altele.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul logistic al Biroului din București al Organizației Elene de Turism (EOT), Prefectura Regiunii Macedonia de Est și Tracia\r\nAgenției de turism HTS','VARĂ GRECEASCĂ - Sfânta Lidia prin labiritul de măslini (2), MAPAMOND nr.135-136','','inherit','open','open','','4049-revision-v1','','','2015-09-26 18:02:48','2015-09-26 16:02:48','',4049,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/09/26/4049-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(3989,1,'2015-09-26 14:38:14','2015-09-26 12:38:14','Ce face FRANŢA ca să rămână în TOP !\r\n\r\nCu 84,7 milioane de vizitatori străini în 2014 Franța continuă să-și păstreze poziția de lider mondial de mai bine de 20 de ani.

Fillipi, orașul antic, e un site ce nu trebuie ratat. Datează din secolul al IV-lea ÎCh și a fost construit de către Filip al II-lea. De aici i se trage și numele. Pe oriunde v-ați plimba veți atinge vestigiile importante ale orașului: biserici, amfiteatre, piața, toaletele publice (vespasienele), o presă pentru strivit strugurii etc. Din era creștină locul este marcat de prezența Apostolului Pavel căci locul în care se spune că a fost încarcerat de romani a devenit zonă de pelerinaj a creștinătății. De altfel, în apropiere se află un complex mănăstiresc care adăpostește Baptiserul Sfintei Lidia, primul creștin botezat de Sf. Pavel în Europa. Locul este un reper pentru toți creștinii nu doar cei aparținând ortodoxiei. Toate religiile sunt prezente aici pentru a se bucura de puterea apei de botez din pârâul ce curge în grădină, considerată de către credincioși că a fost sfințită prin lucrarea Sf. Apostol Pavel. Și tot aproape de Maroneia, ascuns într-o livadă de măslini se află un Amfiteatru roman cu o priveliște uluitoare la mare. El adăpostește periodic festivaluri și concerte de muzică clasică.\r\n\r\nKAVALA - pe urmele lui Mehmet Ali\r\n\r\nKavala înseamnă... călare. Dacă nu ai ști unde te afli ai crede că ești pe o insulă. Construcțiile cocoțate pe dealuri par că alunecă încet spre mare. E doar o iluzie optică. Imaginea de marcă a orașului e dată de Arcade (Kamares) vestigiile apeductului medieval ce parcă taie linia orizontului și de Imaret, o serie de drumuri construite de Mehmet Ali la 1817. Acropola cetății, farul, primăria orașului (ce amintește de Budapesta), toate sunt repere turistice. Străbătute la pas, străduțele vechi te conduc încet spre zona modernă, unde se află o impresionantă biserică închinată Sfîntului Pavel. Ea amintește tuturor că regiunea se află sub binecunvântarea prezenței sale pe aceste locuri.\r\nPriviți cu atenție leul care străjuiește una din trecerile pe sub apeduct. Este aceeași cu imaginea ce se regăsește și pe bancnotele euro emise de Grecia. Încă o remarcă. În piațeta orașului vechi ghidul care ne însoțește ne arată unica statuie a unui turc musulman care se află în Grecia. Și Casa Muzeu și statuia sunt legate de numele lui Mehmet Ali (1769–1849). O figură legendară, Pașă al Egiptului, el a trăit mai mulți ani la Kavala.\r\n\r\n\r\nDRAMA - păsări rare și mori de apă\r\n\r\nCuvântul de referință al orașului este apa. Ai senzația că orașul a fost construit pe un lac subteran, și probabil că așa și e degrabă ce mustește de râuri naturale ce izvorăsc cu forță din inima sa. Ce ne-a impresionat la edili? Modul în care știu să-și transforme vechile construcții, dîndu-le o nouă utilitate și deci și o altă identitate. Am vizitat o clădire nouă, cel puțin așa părea la prima vedere. Un hotel modern de 5 stele cu toate facilitățile actuale. Acesta a fost amenajat într-o clădire istorică unde se afla un depozit de tutun. Inutil să spunem că toate elementele arhitectonice și identitatea vizuală a acesteia au fost conservate și puse în valoare. O lecție de învățat.\r\n\r\nSigur, în acest context, vizitarea peșterii Aggitis aflată la 25 de kilometri de Drama a devenit o probă obligatorie. Cadrul natural oferit de pădurile muntelui Falakro constituie casa perfectă pentru izvoarele râului Aggitis, care de-a lungul a peste 30.000 de ani a creat peștera cu același nume. Vizitatorii pot parcurge în interiorul său un traseul lung de 500 de metri, amenajat special pentru amatorii de fotografii ori pur și simplu pentru primbări pe... promenada subterană. Locul a fost descoperit întâmplător de exploratorul francez Cousinery, la sfârșitul secolului al XVIII-lea. Forma acestei peșteri, aproape circulară a permis instalarea, în timpul ocupației otomane de la începutul secolului XX, a unei Mori de apă ce a stat la baza creării unui sistem de irigații în zonă. Impactul asupra vizitatorilor este dublat și de faptul că peștera beneficiază de o ieșire naturală, spectaculoasă dar foarte greu accesibilă. Aviz amatorilor de aventură.\r\nPentru că tot am atins acest capitol iubitorii de adrenalină au la dispoziție diverse oportunități. Doar le punctăm: fascinanta pădure Dadia, casa ultimelor păsări de pradă rare din Europa; programe de caiac-canoe și rafting în defileele râului Nestos; lacul Vistonida cu o floră și faună unice; peștera Ciclopului Polifem; delta râului Evros și multe altele.\r\n\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul logistic al Biroului din București al Organizației Elene de Turism (EOT), Prefectura Regiunii Macedonia de Est și Tracia\r\nAgenției de turism HTS\r\n\r\n\r\n','Ce face FRANŢA ca să rămână în TOP !, MAPAMOND nr.135-136','','inherit','open','open','','3988-revision-v1','','','2015-09-26 14:38:14','2015-09-26 12:38:14','',3988,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/09/26/3988-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4059,1,'2015-10-07 12:48:28','2015-10-07 10:48:28','','bzn','','inherit','open','open','','bzn','','','2015-10-07 12:48:28','2015-10-07 10:48:28','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/bzn.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3991,1,'2015-09-26 15:13:59','2015-09-26 13:13:59','TURISMUL - Statistica e un foc de artificii !

Acesta este o parte din patrimoniul Dino Parc care s-a deschis în această lună la Râșnov. Atracția este promovată drept ”Cel mai mare parc de dinozauri din sud-estul Europei și cel mai nou din întreaga Europă”.\r\n![\"Travel](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Travel-Dino-3.jpg\")
\r\n\r\n”E un proiect inedit care va sprijini puternic turismul în zona Brașov-Râșnov. Dinozaurii expuși sunt așezați în mediul lor natural pentru că aici avem o pădure cvasi-virgină deosebit de pitorească. Vizitatorii vor vedea dinozauri așezați în apă pentru că sunt cei de apă, zburători, care se află în arbori sau prădători, care îi pândesc pe cei ierbivori. Este un proiect ambițios care s-a dezvoltat în numai un an de zile. Scopul nostru e să atragem un număr cât mai mare de turiști interesați să vadă o atracție unică\"- a declarat Adrian Apostu, managerul de proiect.\r\n![\"Travel](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Travel-Dino-2.jpg\")
\r\nLa rândul său primarul Adrian Veștea e de părere că ” Dino Parc este un proiect care alături de Cetatea Râșnov, vizitată anul trecut de 240.000 de turiști, Peștera din Valea Cetății, liftul pe plan înclinat cu cremalieră pentru transportul turiștilor la Cetate, Complexul Olimpic de Sărituri cu Schiurile de pe Valea Cărbunării, centrul istoric al orașului care este în lucru, întregește oferta turistică a orașului. Este un concept integrat de sport și agrement pe care noi râșnovenii l-am oferit tuturor turiștilor care se află pentru câteva zile la Râșnov, dar și celor care sunt cazați la Bran-Moeciu, Poiana Brașov sau Predeal. Dacă în 2004 ofeream 100 de locuri de cazare am ajuns în prezent la peste 2.500. Majoritatea proiectelor de investiții au fost realizate cu fonduri europene, fonduri norvegiene și în continuare vom merge pe această direcție. Am convingerea că peste doi ani Râșnovul va primi peste 400.000 de turiști anual \".\r\nÎn parc se mai găsesc căsuțe construite în arbori, trasee de cățărare pentru copii printre copaci, un vulcan care scoate fum, și în același timp, pe o platformă amplasată la baza acestuia, un simulator de cutremur, un muzeu cu schelete de dinozauri - inclusiv al unui dinozaur ce a fost descoperit pe teritoriul românesc -, un cinematograf unde vor rula filme documentare și filme moderne tematice, magazine de suveniruri etc. Dino Park Râșnov este un proiect în valoare de 5 milioane de euro, finanțat din fonduri europene prin POR 2007-2013, din care 70% finanțare europeană. Parcul este deschis zilnic între orele 9,30-20,00. Prețul unui bilet este de 28 de lei pentru adulți și 22 de lei( cam mult) pentru copii. Copiii cu vârsta sub trei ani beneficiază de intrare gratuită.\r\nION BADEA\r\n\r\nLIBER la Voucherele de Vacanță\r\n![\"Travel](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Travel-fuziune.jpg\")
\r\n\r\n\r\nO ”gură de oxigen”. Așa a fost numită aprobarea de către Camera Deputaților, for decizional, a Ordonanței de Urgență de modificare a Legii voucherelor de vacanță. Prin intrarea în vigoare a acestei măsuri industria turismului autohtonă va beneficia de peste 400 de milioane de euro anual. Salariații pot primi vouchere de vacanță cu o valoare de până la șase salarii minime brute, pe care le pot folosi numai pentru vacanțe în România. Toate primele de vacanță care se vor acorda în sistemul de stat, începând cu 1 ianuarie 2016, vor fi numai sub formă de vouchere de vacanță. Impozitarea acestora este similară celei tichetelor de masă, cu mult mai avantajoasă pentru angajator față de impozitarea pe salarii. Acestea se vor emite în format de hârtie, dar noutatea constă în formatul electronic ce va fi dezvoltat de către unități specializate și de unități bancare. ”Este o lege din care nimeni nu pierde, toată lumea câștigă: salariați, angajatori, industria turismului și țara, în general. ANAT a militat timp de 11 ani pentru introducerea voucherelor de vacanță, cu contribuția directă, atât tehnică cât și mediatică, a celor care au ocupat succesiv funcția de președinte al asociației noastre. Doresc să subliniez că acest succes nu s-ar fi obținut fără contribuția colegilor din FPTR dar și a altor organizații profesionale care au susținut această campanie” - a declarat Aurelian Marin, președinte ANAT.\r\n\r\nTRIPSTA a fuzionat cu AIRTICKETS\r\n\r\nDimitris Kontogiorgos și Philipp Brinkmann președinții firmelor de turism online Airtickets, respectiv Tripsta au anunțat finalizarea fuziunii celor două companii. Evenimentul schimbă semnificativ ierarhia principalilor actori din Europa, în condițiile în care noua companie devine cea mai mare OTA (online tourism agency) din Europa de Sud-Est dar și unul dintre principalii cinci jucători din domeniu în Europa. Fuziunea are ca scop consolidarea tehnologică și baza de clienți, punând la dispoziție o ofertă de transport mai complexă.

Se întinde pe o suprafață de 1,4 hectare și găzduiește machetele unui număr de 45 de dinozauri, cel mai mare de 22,4 metri lungime și 20 de metri înălțime, iar cel mai mic de 30 de centimetri. Acesta este o parte din patrimoniul Dino Parc care s-a deschis în această lună la Râșnov. Atracția este promovată drept ”Cel mai mare parc de dinozauri din sud-estul Europei și cel mai nou din întreaga Europă”.\r\n\r\n\r\n”E un proiect inedit care va sprijini puternic turismul în zona Brașov-Râșnov. Dinozaurii expuși sunt așezați în mediul lor natural pentru că aici avem o pădure cvasi-virgină deosebit de pitorească. Vizitatorii vor vedea dinozauri așezați în apă pentru că sunt cei de apă, zburători, care se află în arbori sau prădători, care îi pândesc pe cei ierbivori. Este un proiect ambițios care s-a dezvoltat în numai un an de zile. Scopul nostru e să atragem un număr cât mai mare de turiști interesați să vadă o atracție unică\"- a declarat Adrian Apostu, managerul de proiect. La rândul său primarul Adrian Veștea e de părere că ” Dino Parc este un proiect care alături de Cetatea Râșnov, vizitată anul trecut de 240.000 de turiști, Peștera din Valea Cetății, liftul pe plan înclinat cu cremalieră pentru transportul turiștilor la Cetate, Complexul Olimpic de Sărituri cu Schiurile de pe Valea Cărbunării, centrul istoric al orașului care este în lucru, întregește oferta turistică a orașului. Este un concept integrat de sport și agrement pe care noi râșnovenii l-am oferit tuturor turiștilor care se află pentru câteva zile la Râșnov, dar și celor care sunt cazați la Bran-Moeciu, Poiana Brașov sau Predeal. Dacă în 2004 ofeream 100 de locuri de cazare am ajuns în prezent la peste 2.500. Majoritatea proiectelor de investiții au fost realizate cu fonduri europene, fonduri norvegiene și în continuare vom merge pe această direcție. Am convingerea că peste doi ani Râșnovul va primi peste 400.000 de turiști anual \".\r\nÎn parc se mai găsesc căsuțe construite în arbori, trasee de cățărare pentru copii printre copaci, un vulcan care scoate fum, și în același timp, pe o platformă amplasată la baza acestuia, un simulator de cutremur, un muzeu cu schelete de dinozauri - inclusiv al unui dinozaur ce a fost descoperit pe teritoriul românesc -, un cinematograf unde vor rula filme documentare și filme moderne tematice, magazine de suveniruri etc. Dino Park Râșnov este un proiect în valoare de 5 milioane de euro, finanțat din fonduri europene prin POR 2007-2013, din care 70% finanțare europeană. Parcul este deschis zilnic între orele 9,30-20,00. Prețul unui bilet este de 28 de lei pentru adulți și 22 de lei( cam mult) pentru copii. Copiii cu vârsta sub trei ani beneficiază de intrare gratuită.\r\nION BADEA\r\n\r\n\r\nLIBER la Voucherele de Vacanță\r\n\r\nO ”gură de oxigen”. Așa a fost numită aprobarea de către Camera Deputaților, for decizional, a Ordonanței de Urgență de modificare a Legii voucherelor de vacanță. Prin intrarea în vigoare a acestei măsuri industria turismului autohtonă va beneficia de peste 400 de milioane de euro anual. Salariații pot primi vouchere de vacanță cu o valoare de până la șase salarii minime brute, pe care le pot folosi numai pentru vacanțe în România. Toate primele de vacanță care se vor acorda în sistemul de stat, începând cu 1 ianuarie 2016, vor fi numai sub formă de vouchere de vacanță. Impozitarea acestora este similară celei tichetelor de masă, cu mult mai avantajoasă pentru angajator față de impozitarea pe salarii. Acestea se vor emite în format de hârtie, dar noutatea constă în formatul electronic ce va fi dezvoltat de către unități specializate și de unități bancare. ”Este o lege din care nimeni nu pierde, toată lumea câștigă: salariați, angajatori, industria turismului și țara, în general. ANAT a militat timp de 11 ani pentru introducerea voucherelor de vacanță, cu contribuția directă, atât tehnică cât și mediatică, a celor care au ocupat succesiv funcția de președinte al asociației noastre. Doresc să subliniez că acest succes nu s-ar fi obținut fără contribuția colegilor din FPTR dar și a altor organizații profesionale care au susținut această campanie” - a declarat Aurelian Marin, președinte ANAT.\r\n\r\n\r\nTRIPSTA a fuzionat cu AIRTICKETS\r\n\r\nDimitris Kontogiorgos și Philipp Brinkmann președinții firmelor de turism online Airtickets, respectiv Tripsta au anunțat finalizarea fuziunii celor două companii. Evenimentul schimbă semnificativ ierarhia principalilor actori din Europa, în condițiile în care noua companie devine cea mai mare OTA (online tourism agency) din Europa de Sud-Est dar și unul dintre principalii cinci jucători din domeniu în Europa. Fuziunea are ca scop consolidarea tehnologică și baza de clienți, punând la dispoziție o ofertă de transport mai complexă. Tripsta și Airtickets vor continua să opereze sub brandurile deja consacrate cu birouri în România, Grecia, Rusia, Polonia, Turcia și Brazilia. Liderii noii companii se așteaptă în 2015, la vânzari de peste 500 milioane de euro.','45 de dinozauri au atacat Rasnovul, TRAVEL nr.135-136','','inherit','open','open','','3994-revision-v1','','','2015-09-26 14:53:53','2015-09-26 12:53:53','',3994,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/09/26/3994-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(3996,1,'2015-09-26 15:29:38','2015-09-26 13:29:38','','carte sinaia','','inherit','open','open','','carte-sinaia','','','2015-09-26 15:29:38','2015-09-26 13:29:38','',3969,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/carte-sinaia.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3997,1,'2015-09-26 15:30:00','2015-09-26 13:30:00','','carte athos','','inherit','open','open','','carte-athos','','','2015-09-26 15:30:00','2015-09-26 13:30:00','',3969,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/carte-athos.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3998,1,'2015-09-26 15:30:22','2015-09-26 13:30:22','','carte novaci','','inherit','open','open','','carte-novaci','','','2015-09-26 15:30:22','2015-09-26 13:30:22','',3969,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/carte-novaci.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(3999,1,'2015-09-26 15:30:25','2015-09-26 13:30:25','SINAIA REGALĂ a lui George Avanu\n\n\n\nDe câte ori parcurg o lucrare ce poartă semnătura artistului fotograf George Avanu, mă încântă să descopăr noi perspective de abordare a unei destinații turistice.

E optimistă și entuziastă, spirit care a cam murit în marile orașe. Probabil natura dar și oamenii de la Poșaga au ajutat-o să-și creeze un discurs în care revine foarte des, cuvântul comunitate. Cât valorează el pe Valea Arieșului? Ne spune Ioana Joca!\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"4020,4021,4022,4023\"]\r\n\r\n- Cum și de unde a pornit proiectul turistic ”Lada de zestre”!?\r\n\r\n- Simplu: în vara lui 2012, primind un mic ajutor de la Primăria Poșaga, am reușit să realizez un trailer și 16 clipuri despre Comunitate. În acestea am surprins, în mare parte, ce a ramas traditional, autentic. Am postat aceste filmulețe pe Youtube și, în mai puțin de un an, am primit peste 10.000 vizionări (100% organic Reach). Încurajată de acest mic succes neașteptat, m-am gândit să mă folosesc de el în mod practic, construind câte ceva pentru Comunitate. Și, ce altceva putea fi decât un program compact care să însumeze (atât teoretic cât și practic) ce ar putea face un oaspete ca să se integreze & bucure, la modul cel mai sincer & armonios, de viața autentică din zonă?! Deși, pentru prima ediție - vara lui 2013 -, nu am avut decât 7 participanți, \'experimentul\' a fost 100% un succes!\r\n\r\n- Care a fost motivația alegerii zonei Valea Arieșului?\r\n\r\n- Poșaga reprezintă Comunitatea în care trăiesc bunicii din partea mamei & locul în care am făcut primii pași. În plus, în ultimii 10 ani, am făcut acolo cele doua filme ale mele, \"the Grandparents\" & \"a Transylvanian Tale\" - primul film reprezentând și primul pas în lupta mea de a pune Poșaga pe hartă, cum s-ar spune. ONG-ul meu, JJ Films & Culture, se ocupă exclusiv de păstrarea & promovarea a tot ceea ce a mai rămas autentic în Comunitatea Poșaga (situată pe Valea Arieșului, județul Alba). Am început mai mult în glumă, însă - în mai puțin de 3 ani - m-am trezit cu oaspeți străini interesați de proiectul meu turistic intitulat \"The Dowry-Box\" (Lada de Zestre). Pe scurt, timp de 12 zile, turiștii sunt invitați să trăiască, muncească & sărbătorească laolaltă cu localnicii. Împreună învață ce înseamnă să lucreze la cîmp, cu bivolii, vite, capre, ce presupune strânsul fânului, seceratul grâului, pâinea făcută la cuptorul cu lemne, lucrul la războiul de țesut etc. Nu lipsesc nici excursiile de o zi pentru a descoperi frumusețile naturale din zonă (rezervația Scărița Belioara, cascade, peșteri etc). Este o formă de turism cultural cum NU mai există în zonă și cum nu se practică la noi, în Transilvania, suficient.\r\n\r\n- Cum a reacționat Comunitatea Poșaga la nivel colectiv dar și individual?\r\n- S-au bucurat, la modul cel mai sincer, că cineva - în sfârșit! - pune în valoare tot ce a mai rămas tradițional acolo. Aș putea spune că sunt singura ( să nu mă bănuițiți de lipsă de modestie !) care, până acum, a încercat & început să faca turism - chiar dacă la un nivel mai neconvențional. Cel mai bine a reacționat familia Melinte - proprietara uneia dintre cele mai tradiționale Ferme din zonă - oferindu-și casa călătorilor străini ca și cum ar fi fost a lor! Și când spun tradițional, mă refer la faptul că oamenii respectivi (deși au avut opțiunea să se \"modernizeze\") au preferat să continue cu munca tradițională, la seceratul grâului folosind secera, la arat plugul tras de bivoli sau pologul, de dimineața până la asfințit, doar cu furca și grebla. Exemplele ar putea continua. Din 2013, timp de două ediții a \"The Dowry Box\" această familie dăruită a fost principala gazdă. Și a rămas și pentru vara lui 2015!\r\n\r\n - Ce oferte de turism promovezi și cum le promovezi? Care dintre ele s-au bucurat de apreciere din partea turiștilor străini?\r\n\r\n- Până în momentul de față, am avut două proiecte. Mari și late: \"The Dowry Box\" (Lada de Zestre) ce ajunge în această vară la a 3-a ediție și, desigur, \"Cooking Mish-Mash: the Transylvanian Way\" - un workshop de Weekend despre ce înseamnă să gătești în stilul Slow Food.\r\nÎncepand cu luna mai, Comunitatea Poșaga are propria pagina pe Internet (româna-engleză) și, în felul acesta, o să pot urca pe site mai multe proiecte. De exemplu avem unul nou intitulat \"Posaga Brunch\": tot timp de un Weekend, participanții vor avea ocazia să gătească la ceaun, să exploreze vecinătățile Comunității (cu o excursie de o zi pe un Platou muntos, iar în ziua următoare la o Comunitate înfrățită cu Poșaga - Ponor pe numele ei) și, nu în ultimul rând, să stea în jurul unui foc de tabără, plus să doarmă în fân, corturi, chiar în mijlocul Naturii! Ce să spun, mă aștept în această vară la un număr frumușel de turiști.\r\n\r\n - Dă-mi exemplul unui produs specific zonei, care-i face pe turiștii străini să se lingă pe degete!\r\n\r\n- Hehehe! Fie Balmoșul (nu Bulz, da?!) și Mămăliga Împăturită. Balmoșul e în aparență doar o mămăligă obișnuită, însă are miez de unt topit amestecat cu smântână. Iar Împăturită pe un strat mămăligă, unul cu brânză frământată, iar unul cu mămăligă, altul cu smântână și tot așa! Că doar d’aia a fost botezată Mămăligă Împăturită.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nFoto: Arhiva personală Ioana Joca','Ioana Joca - ”Lada de zestre” e plină cu tradiții inepuizabile !

Acești călători au generat în bugetul țării lui Ludovic al XIV-lea, Napoleon, Edith Piaf ori Renoir, numai anul trecut peste 42,7 miliarde de euro. Uau!!!\n\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"4028,4027,4026,4025\"]\n\nPentru a înțelege mai bine fenomenul mai adăugăm și aceste informații puse la dispoziție de Atout France, instituție similară cam cu ce se numește la noi Autoritatea Națională pentru Turism. Cu precizarea că prima funcționează foarte bine. La o populație de 66,3 milioane de locuitori, turismul oferă locuri de muncă - directe și indirecte - pentru mai bine de 2 milioane. Această industrie contribuie la bugetul național cu un procent de circa 7,5%.\n\nCare sunt ”motoarele” sectorului? Fără a stabili o ierarhie segmentul MICE pare să fie sintetizatorul de interese. În 2013 Franța s-a situat pe locul 4 în topul mondial al destinațiilor organizatoare de congrese și evenimente, clasament alcătuit de către International Congress and Convention Association (ICCA). Anual în Franța sunt organizate circa 1100 de expoziții și târguri, iar acest sector ce oferă 120.000 de locuri de muncă, furnizează venituri de 2,33 miliarde de euro. La rândul său turismul cultural este cel mai ofertant. El pune pe tava călătoriilor internaționale 44.000 de monumente istorice, dintre care 1.140 sunt muzee. Ca o idee Luvru a fost destinația cea mai vizitată în 2014, cu 9,3 milioane de vizitatori, 70% dintre aceștia fiind străini. Shopping-ul, gastronomia și vinurile completează colecția atracțiilor franceze. Cu un patrimoniu de peste 17.700 de hoteluri, dintre care circa 14.000 clasificate, respectiv cu 147.000 de restaurante (peste 13.600 funcționează numai la Paris), francezii se mai mândresc și cu faptul că peste 600 dintre acestea se individualizează prin stelele Michelin acordate de-a lungul anilor. Un alt punct forte îl reprezintă parcurile naturale ( 9 naționale, 156 de rezervații naturale și 516 zone cu specii protejate).\n\nFrench Rendez-Vous la Viena\n\nÎn fiecare an Atout France organizează în perioadele de extrasezon activități specifice de promovare a destinațiilor și a noutăților incluse într-un calendar de evenimente definitivat deja pe următorii trei ani. Majoritatea au ca invitați travel agenții din țările furnizoare de turiști. Au loc workshopuri și infotripuri pentru că e normal să vizitezi ceea ce ți se prezintă în timpul întâlnirilor și ceea ce ai putea să vinzi. Din când în când în acest ciclu intră și presa de specialitate căruia i se pun la dispoziție informații proaspete. ”French Rendez-Vous” este manifestarea itinerantă ce concentrează aceste activități. A ajuns la a 4-a ediție, iar în acest an a fost găzduită de Viena. 53 de expozanți francezi și-au etalat ofertele în fața reprezentanților agențiilor de turism partenere din Austria, Bosnia-Herțegovina, Bulgaria, Croația, Cehia, Ungaria, Serbia, Slovacia, Slovenia și România. În premieră a participat și Polonia. Evenimentul ce a fost onorat de E.S. Pascal Teixeira da Silva, ambasadorul Franței în Austria, a fost dublat de ”The France Show”, un spectacol cu Manfred & Gigga, în care au fost prezentate și din perspectivă gastronomică, câteva dintre atracțiile turistice-brand ale Franței.\n\nViața în roz și destinații de top\n\n”Franța are alături de destinațiile tradiționale, numeroase evenimente noi prin care își asigură anual păstrarea atractivității. Pot spune că 2015 îi cheamă pe călătorii avizi de pachete culturale, turistice dar și gastronomice. Amintesc doar că din acest an vor intra în circuit noi muzee printre care Aeroscopia (Blagnac), Historial Jeanne d’Arc (Rouen), Cultural Center Villa Cavrois (Croix). În materie de distincții amintesc că orașul Bordeaux a fost declarat ”Best Destination 2015”. Vom marca 1000 de ani de la construirea Catedralei din Strasbourg; 50 de ani de la moartea artistului Le Corbusier; 100 de ani de la nașterea lui Edith Piaf; comemorarea morții regelui Louis al XIV-lea etc. La fel de așteptată este redeschiderea hotelului Ritz din Paris” - a declarat, în timpul unei conferințe de presă, Corinne Foulquier, directorul Atout France pentru Austria & Europa Centrală.\n\nDe asemenea Gordana Malic, directorul pentru Bosnia & Herțegovina, Bulgaria, Croația, România, Serbia și Slovenia ne-a precizat că ”românii sunt buni consumatorilor de vacanțe în Franța. Numărul lor - circa 230.000 (în 2013), exprimă un potențial de creștere evident”. Într-un top al zonei deasupra noastră sunt austriecii cu circa 395.000 de turiști trimiși, Cehia și Ungaria. Sub noi se află la distanță Bulgaria, Croația, Slovacia, Slovenia.\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\n\n \n\n \n\n ','Ce face FRANŢA ca să rămână în TOP !, MAPAMOND nr.135-136','','inherit','open','open','','3988-autosave-v1','','','2015-09-26 18:00:05','2015-09-26 16:00:05','',3988,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/09/26/3988-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4052,1,'2015-09-26 18:03:16','2015-09-26 16:03:16','','Macedonia 105','','inherit','open','open','','macedonia-105-2','','','2015-09-26 18:03:16','2015-09-26 16:03:16','',4049,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Macedonia-1051.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4053,1,'2015-09-26 18:03:17','2015-09-26 16:03:17','','Macedonia 246','','inherit','open','open','','macedonia-246-2','','','2015-09-26 18:03:17','2015-09-26 16:03:17','',4049,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Macedonia-2461.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4054,1,'2015-09-26 18:03:19','2015-09-26 16:03:19','','Macedonia 259','','inherit','open','open','','macedonia-259-2','','','2015-09-26 18:03:19','2015-09-26 16:03:19','',4049,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Macedonia-2591.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4055,1,'2015-09-26 18:03:21','2015-09-26 16:03:21','','Macedonia 392','','inherit','open','open','','macedonia-392-2','','','2015-09-26 18:03:21','2015-09-26 16:03:21','',4049,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Macedonia-3921.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4056,1,'2015-09-26 18:03:33','2015-09-26 16:03:33','[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"4052,4053,4054,4055\"]\r\n\r\nPolitica face mult rău turismului grecesc. Dincolo de stilul alarmist propagat de canalele TV industria turistică încearcă să combată o zvonistica ieftină. Conform unui raport comunicat de SETE (Asociația Companiilor de Turism din Grecia, sinonim cu ANAT-ul nostru), în acest an Elada se aşteaptă să obțină din turism peste 14 miliarde de euro, ce vor proveni de pe urma a circa 25 de milioane de sosiri internaționale.\r\n\r\nDestinațiile clasice (Atena, Salonic, Creta, Corfu, Santorini, Zakintos, Mikonos etc) atrag o mare parte din călătorii internaționali. Dar grecii propun în fiecare an noi atracții pe care le scot din ”buzunarul de rezervă”. O parte sunt concentrate chiar în Macedonia de Est și Tracia - o regiune a Greciei continentale bogată în vestigii istorice, zone naturale, gastronomie și tradiții. Democrit spunea într-un discurs: ”Veniți și ne vizitați și veți reveni de bunăvoie!” Georgios Pavlidis, guvernatorul Regiunii întărește invitația. Plecăm spre noi locuri care vor fascina cu siguranță pe turiștii români, foarte apreciați și respectați, după cum spuneam în numărul trecut, și în această regiune grecească.\r\n\r\nDe la FILLIPI pe VIA EGNATIA\r\n\r\nFillippi, Kavala, Maroneia, Drama au în comun Via Egnatia. Vă mai aduceți aminte? E chiar celebru drum ce lega Roma, capitala imperiului, de coloniile sale. Încărcătura istorică este impresionantă iar siturile arheologice pe măsură. Fillipi, orașul antic, e un site ce nu trebuie ratat. Datează din secolul al IV-lea ÎCh și a fost construit de către Filip al II-lea. De aici i se trage și numele. Pe oriunde v-ați plimba veți atinge vestigiile importante ale orașului: biserici, amfiteatre, piața, toaletele publice (vespasienele), o presă pentru strivit strugurii etc. Din era creștină locul este marcat de prezența Apostolului Pavel căci locul în care se spune că a fost încarcerat de romani a devenit zonă de pelerinaj a creștinătății. De altfel, în apropiere se află un complex mănăstiresc care adăpostește Baptiserul Sfintei Lidia, primul creștin botezat de Sf. Pavel în Europa. Locul este un reper pentru toți creștinii nu doar cei aparținând ortodoxiei. Toate religiile sunt prezente aici pentru a se bucura de puterea apei de botez din pârâul ce curge în grădină, considerată de către credincioși că a fost sfințită prin lucrarea Sf. Apostol Pavel. Și tot aproape de Maroneia, ascuns într-o livadă de măslini se află un Amfiteatru roman cu o priveliște uluitoare la mare. El adăpostește periodic festivaluri și concerte de muzică clasică.\r\n\r\nKAVALA - pe urmele lui Mehmet Ali\r\n\r\nKavala înseamnă... călare. Dacă nu ai ști unde te afli ai crede că ești pe o insulă. Construcțiile cocoțate pe dealuri par că alunecă încet spre mare. E doar o iluzie optică. Imaginea de marcă a orașului e dată de Arcade (Kamares) vestigiile apeductului medieval ce parcă taie linia orizontului și de Imaret, o serie de drumuri construite de Mehmet Ali la 1817. Acropola cetății, farul, primăria orașului (ce amintește de Budapesta), toate sunt repere turistice. Străbătute la pas, străduțele vechi te conduc încet spre zona modernă, unde se află o impresionantă biserică închinată Sfîntului Pavel. Ea amintește tuturor că regiunea se află sub binecunvântarea prezenței sale pe aceste locuri.\r\nPriviți cu atenție leul care străjuiește una din trecerile pe sub apeduct. Este aceeași cu imaginea ce se regăsește și pe bancnotele euro emise de Grecia. Încă o remarcă. În piațeta orașului vechi ghidul care ne însoțește ne arată unica statuie a unui turc musulman care se află în Grecia. Și Casa Muzeu și statuia sunt legate de numele lui Mehmet Ali (1769–1849). O figură legendară, Pașă al Egiptului, el a trăit mai mulți ani la Kavala.\r\n\r\nDRAMA - păsări rare și mori de apă\r\n\r\nCuvântul de referință al orașului este apa. Ai senzația că orașul a fost construit pe un lac subteran, și probabil că așa și e degrabă ce mustește de râuri naturale ce izvorăsc cu forță din inima sa. Ce ne-a impresionat la edili? Modul în care știu să-și transforme vechile construcții, dîndu-le o nouă utilitate și deci și o altă identitate. Am vizitat o clădire nouă, cel puțin așa părea la prima vedere. Un hotel modern de 5 stele cu toate facilitățile actuale. Acesta a fost amenajat într-o clădire istorică unde se afla un depozit de tutun. Inutil să spunem că toate elementele arhitectonice și identitatea vizuală a acesteia au fost conservate și puse în valoare. O lecție de învățat.\r\n\r\nSigur, în acest context, vizitarea peșterii Aggitis aflată la 25 de kilometri de Drama a devenit o probă obligatorie. Cadrul natural oferit de pădurile muntelui Falakro constituie casa perfectă pentru izvoarele râului Aggitis, care de-a lungul a peste 30.000 de ani a creat peștera cu același nume. Vizitatorii pot parcurge în interiorul său un traseul lung de 500 de metri, amenajat special pentru amatorii de fotografii ori pur și simplu pentru primbări pe... promenada subterană. Locul a fost descoperit întâmplător de exploratorul francez Cousinery, la sfârșitul secolului al XVIII-lea. Forma acestei peșteri, aproape circulară a permis instalarea, în timpul ocupației otomane de la începutul secolului XX, a unei Mori de apă ce a stat la baza creării unui sistem de irigații în zonă. Impactul asupra vizitatorilor este dublat și de faptul că peștera beneficiază de o ieșire naturală, spectaculoasă dar foarte greu accesibilă. Aviz amatorilor de aventură.\r\nPentru că tot am atins acest capitol iubitorii de adrenalină au la dispoziție diverse oportunități. Doar le punctăm: fascinanta pădure Dadia, casa ultimelor păsări de pradă rare din Europa; programe de caiac-canoe și rafting în defileele râului Nestos; lacul Vistonida cu o floră și faună unice; peștera Ciclopului Polifem; delta râului Evros și multe altele.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul logistic al Biroului din București al Organizației Elene de Turism (EOT), Prefectura Regiunii Macedonia de Est și Tracia\r\nAgenției de turism HTS','VARĂ GRECEASCĂ - Sfânta Lidia prin labiritul de măslini (2), MAPAMOND nr.135-136','','inherit','open','open','','4049-revision-v1','','','2015-09-26 18:03:33','2015-09-26 16:03:33','',4049,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/09/26/4049-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4030,1,'2015-09-26 15:43:56','2015-09-26 13:43:56','','Macedonia 105','','inherit','open','open','','macedonia-105','','','2015-09-26 15:43:56','2015-09-26 13:43:56','',3988,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Macedonia-105.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4031,1,'2015-09-26 15:43:58','2015-09-26 13:43:58','','Macedonia 246','','inherit','open','open','','macedonia-246','','','2015-09-26 15:43:58','2015-09-26 13:43:58','',3988,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Macedonia-246.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4032,1,'2015-09-26 15:44:00','2015-09-26 13:44:00','','Macedonia 259','','inherit','open','open','','macedonia-259','','','2015-09-26 15:44:00','2015-09-26 13:44:00','',3988,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Macedonia-259.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4033,1,'2015-09-26 15:44:02','2015-09-26 13:44:02','','Macedonia 392','','inherit','open','open','','macedonia-392','','','2015-09-26 15:44:02','2015-09-26 13:44:02','',3988,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Macedonia-392.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4050,1,'2015-09-26 18:00:24','2015-09-26 16:00:24','Ce face FRANŢA ca să rămână în TOP !\r\n\r\nCu 84,7 milioane de vizitatori străini în 2014 Franța continuă să-și păstreze poziția de lider mondial de mai bine de 20 de ani.

De altfel, în apropiere se află un complex mănăstiresc care adăpostește Baptiserul Sfintei Lidia, primul creștin botezat de Sf. Pavel în Europa. Locul este un reper pentru toți creștinii nu doar cei aparținând ortodoxiei. Toate religiile sunt prezente aici pentru a se bucura de puterea apei de botez din pârâul ce curge în grădină, considerată de către credincioși că a fost sfințită prin lucrarea Sf. Apostol Pavel. Și tot aproape de Maroneia, ascuns într-o livadă de măslini se află un Amfiteatru roman cu o priveliște uluitoare la mare. El adăpostește periodic festivaluri și concerte de muzică clasică.\r\n\r\nKAVALA - pe urmele lui Mehmet Ali\r\n\r\nKavala înseamnă... călare. Dacă nu ai ști unde te afli ai crede că ești pe o insulă. Construcțiile cocoțate pe dealuri par că alunecă încet spre mare. E doar o iluzie optică. Imaginea de marcă a orașului e dată de Arcade (Kamares) vestigiile apeductului medieval ce parcă taie linia orizontului și de Imaret, o serie de drumuri construite de Mehmet Ali la 1817. Acropola cetății, farul, primăria orașului (ce amintește de Budapesta), toate sunt repere turistice. Străbătute la pas, străduțele vechi te conduc încet spre zona modernă, unde se află o impresionantă biserică închinată Sfîntului Pavel. Ea amintește tuturor că regiunea se află sub binecunvântarea prezenței sale pe aceste locuri.\r\nPriviți cu atenție leul care străjuiește una din trecerile pe sub apeduct. Este aceeași cu imaginea ce se regăsește și pe bancnotele euro emise de Grecia. Încă o remarcă. În piațeta orașului vechi ghidul care ne însoțește ne arată unica statuie a unui turc musulman care se află în Grecia. Și Casa Muzeu și statuia sunt legate de numele lui Mehmet Ali (1769–1849). O figură legendară, Pașă al Egiptului, el a trăit mai mulți ani la Kavala.\r\n\r\nDRAMA - păsări rare și mori de apă\r\n\r\nCuvântul de referință al orașului este apa. Ai senzația că orașul a fost construit pe un lac subteran, și probabil că așa și e degrabă ce mustește de râuri naturale ce izvorăsc cu forță din inima sa. Ce ne-a impresionat la edili? Modul în care știu să-și transforme vechile construcții, dîndu-le o nouă utilitate și deci și o altă identitate. Am vizitat o clădire nouă, cel puțin așa părea la prima vedere. Un hotel modern de 5 stele cu toate facilitățile actuale. Acesta a fost amenajat într-o clădire istorică unde se afla un depozit de tutun. Inutil să spunem că toate elementele arhitectonice și identitatea vizuală a acesteia au fost conservate și puse în valoare. O lecție de învățat.\r\n\r\nSigur, în acest context, vizitarea peșterii Aggitis aflată la 25 de kilometri de Drama a devenit o probă obligatorie. Cadrul natural oferit de pădurile muntelui Falakro constituie casa perfectă pentru izvoarele râului Aggitis, care de-a lungul a peste 30.000 de ani a creat peștera cu același nume. Vizitatorii pot parcurge în interiorul său un traseul lung de 500 de metri, amenajat special pentru amatorii de fotografii ori pur și simplu pentru primbări pe... promenada subterană. Locul a fost descoperit întâmplător de exploratorul francez Cousinery, la sfârșitul secolului al XVIII-lea. Forma acestei peșteri, aproape circulară a permis instalarea, în timpul ocupației otomane de la începutul secolului XX, a unei Mori de apă ce a stat la baza creării unui sistem de irigații în zonă. Impactul asupra vizitatorilor este dublat și de faptul că peștera beneficiază de o ieșire naturală, spectaculoasă dar foarte greu accesibilă. Aviz amatorilor de aventură.\r\nPentru că tot am atins acest capitol iubitorii de adrenalină au la dispoziție diverse oportunități. Doar le punctăm: fascinanta pădure Dadia, casa ultimelor păsări de pradă rare din Europa; programe de caiac-canoe și rafting în defileele râului Nestos; lacul Vistonida cu o floră și faună unice; peștera Ciclopului Polifem; delta râului Evros și multe altele.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul logistic al Biroului din București al Organizației Elene de Turism (EOT), Prefectura Regiunii Macedonia de Est și Tracia\r\nAgenției de turism HTS\r\n\r\n ','Ce face FRANŢA ca să rămână în TOP !, MAPAMOND nr.135-136','','inherit','open','open','','3988-revision-v1','','','2015-09-26 15:44:25','2015-09-26 13:44:25','',3988,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/09/26/3988-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4035,1,'2015-09-26 15:45:51','2015-09-26 13:45:51','','Romania statistica viorist','','inherit','open','open','','romania-statistica-viorist','','','2015-09-26 15:45:51','2015-09-26 13:45:51','',3991,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Romania-statistica-viorist.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4036,1,'2015-09-26 15:45:53','2015-09-26 13:45:53','','Statistica Romania 3','','inherit','open','open','','statistica-romania-3','','','2015-09-26 15:45:53','2015-09-26 13:45:53','',3991,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Statistica-Romania-3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4037,1,'2015-09-26 15:45:54','2015-09-26 13:45:54','','Statistica Romania','','inherit','open','open','','statistica-romania','','','2015-09-26 15:45:54','2015-09-26 13:45:54','',3991,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Statistica-Romania.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4038,1,'2015-09-26 15:45:56','2015-09-26 13:45:56','','Statistica Romania6','','inherit','open','open','','statistica-romania6','','','2015-09-26 15:45:56','2015-09-26 13:45:56','',3991,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Statistica-Romania6.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4039,1,'2015-09-26 15:46:14','2015-09-26 13:46:14','TURISMUL - Statistica e un foc de artificii ! (1)\r\n\r\nPreviziunile WTTC (Consiliul Mondial al Turismului) privitoare la turismul românesc au fost pe 2014 cu 3 sutimi mai optimiste decât realitatea consemnată de statisticile finale. Anul trecut, turismul autohton a avut o contributie totală de 33,1 miliarde de lei la buget ceea ce a reprezentat 5,1% din PIB.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"4035,4036,4037,4038\"]\r\n\r\nWTTC estima o creștere de 5,4%, ce va fi urmată de o rată medie de creștere de 3,8% pe an până în 2024, când vom ajunge, cel puțin teoretic, la 50,8 miliarde de lei. Cum o vom face? Rămâne de văzut. Deocamdată realitățile sunt la unele capitole cam jenante. Iată câteva! Deși credem că suntem o destinație de vacanță, majoritatea turiștilor străini au venit și în 2014 pentru afaceri, participare la congrese, conferinţe, cursuri, târguri şi expoziţii (61,3% din numărul total de turişti nerezidenţi). Cheltuielile acestora au reprezentat 68% din total - subliniază o sinteză a Institutului Național de Statistică (INS). Din aceași sursă aflăm că numărul sosirilor și înoptărilor au crescut, durata medie a șederii fiind anul trecut de 2,5 zile la turistii români și de numai 2 zile la cei străini. Și aici apare fireasca întrebarea - unde, frate, locuiesc și dorm turiștii care ne vizitează??? Probabil în cloud-uri rurale, pentru că acolo nu se plătesc nici taxe, nici impozite!\r\n\r\nAFACERI, CONFERINȚE ȘI CONGRESE\r\n\r\nDar noi rămânem optimiști și defilăm cu zâmbetul pe buze. În 2014, statistica națională a înregistrat 1,91 milioane de turişti străini. Ei au cheltuit 5,09 miliarde lei (1,14 miliarde de euro), cea mai mare pondere fiind deţinută de sumele alocate pentru cazare, potrivit INS. Atât numărul cât și cheltuielile turiștilor au fost mai mari decât în 2013 - respectiv 1,71 milioane, respectiv 4,79 miliarde lei.\r\n\r\nRadiografia turismului acoperit de segmentul MICE ne arată că din totalul cheltuielilor pentru afaceri ponderea cea mai mare o reprezintă cheltuielile pentru cazare (50,6%), fiind preferată în special cazarea cu mic dejun inclus (93,6% din totalul cheltuielilor pentru cazare). Cheltuielile turiştilor nerezidenţi în restaurante şi baruri au fost de 16,1%, iar cele pentru cumpărături au reprezentat 11,9%. cel de al doilea motiv a fost reprezentat de călătoriile în scop particular (38,7% din numărul total de turişti nerezidenţi), cheltuielile acestora reprezentând 32% din total. Călătoriile în scop particular includ călatoriile pentru vacanţe, cumpărături, evenimente culturale şi sportive, vizitarea prietenilor şi rudelor, tratament medical, religie, tranzit şi alte activităţi. Din totalul cheltuielilor pentru cumpărături, 37,2% au reprezentat cheltuielile pentru achiziționarea de îmbrăcăminte şi încălţăminte, urmate de cheltuielile pentru cumpărarea de băuturi şi alimente (33,5%). Cheltuielile pentru închirierea de autoturisme au avut o pondere de 57,1% din totalul cheltuielilor pentru transport.\r\n\r\n44,5 PRIN AGENȚII DE TURISM\r\n\r\nDin totalul nerezidenţilor sosiţi în România anul trecut, 44,5% şi-au organizat sejurul prin agenţii de turism, iar 32,8% şi-au organizat singuri sejurul. Principalul mijloc de transport utilizat pentru călătoriile în România a fost avionul (77,4% dintre turişti). Autoturismele proprii au fost utilizate de 12,8% din numărul total, urmate de autocare şi autobuze cu 7,8% şi alte mijloace (tren, ambarcaţiuni fluviale, autoturisme închiriate, motociclete) cu 2%.\r\nPONDEREA PRINCIPALĂ - EUROPENII.\r\n\r\nSosirile şi înnoptările în structurile turistice au crescut anul trecut cu 6,9%, respectiv cu 4,8%, la 8,44 milioane, respectiv 20,23 milioane. Sosirile țn hoteluri dețin în anul 2014 o pondere de 74,9% din totalul sosirilor în structurile de primire turistică cu funcțiuni de cazare. Din numărul total sosirile turiştilor români în structurile de primire turistică cu funcţiuni de cazare au reprezentat 77,4%, în timp ce străinii au reprezentat 22,6%, ponderi apropiate de cele din anul 2013. În ceea ce priveşte sosirile turiştilor străini în structurile de primire turistică, cea mai mare pondere au deţinut-o cei din Europa (77,2% din total turişti străini), iar din aceştia 85,5% au fost din ţările Uniunii Europene. Din totalul turiştilor străini cei mai mulţi provin din Germania (234.451), Italia (184.514) şi Israel (139.425). Indicele de utilizare netă a locurilor de cazare în 2014 a fost de 26,2% pe total structuri de cazare turistică, în creștere cu 1% față de 2013. Indici mai mari de utilizare a locurilor de cazare în 2014 s-au înregistrat la hoteluri - 32,9%, vile turistice - 20,2% și la căsuțe turistice - 19%.\r\n\r\nROMÂNII AU ACCELERAT CU 8,2%\r\n\r\nSosirile vizitatorilor străini în România, înregistrate la punctele de frontieră, au fost în anul 2014 de 8.441.600, în creștere cu 5,3% față de anul 2013. Majoritatea vizitatorilor străini provine din țări europene - 92,6%. Din totalul sosirilor vizitatorilor străini în România 59,2% provin din statele Uniunii Europene. Cele mai multe sosiri s-au înregistrat din Ungaria - 29,9%, Bulgaria - 24,2%, Germania - 9,4%, Italia - 7,1%, Polonia - 6,2% și Austria - 4%.\r\nAșa stau lucrurile la capitolul incoming și circulație turistică internă, la capitolul outgoing, situația pare să fie mai dinamică. Plecările vizitatorilor români în străinătate, înregistrate la punctele de frontieră, au fost în 2014 de 12.299.000, în creștere cu 8,2%, comparativ cu anul 2013. Cele mai utilizate au fost mijloacele de transport rutier, ele reprezentând 76,1% din totalul plecărilor.\r\n\r\nANGELA SIMION, ALEX BARBU & MARA ANTON','TURISMUL - Statistica e un foc de artificii !

The event takes place within the strategic partnership concluded in 2013 with the American company Infor, in Top 3 of the greatest software services suppliers worldwide, who also developed the EzRMS platform. Niels Mekenkamp, manager of Hospitality Pre-Sales – EMEA, showed during a presentation in Bucharest that “International experience proves an extremely fast return of the investment: in several months since the implementation, hotels register growths of 4-7% of their incomes, without any additional cost growths. Regarding profitability, the general results, but also the tourism results, confirm growths with values between 50 and 70%”.\r\n\r\nDINO PARC in RÂȘNOV\r\n\r\nIt is located only 200 meters from Râșnov Fortress (Brașov County). It covers an area of 1.4 hectares and hosts the models of a number of 45 dinosaurs, the biggest being 22.4 meters in length and 20 meters in height, and the smallest of 30 centimetres. This is a part of Dino Parc patrimony, opened this month in Râșnov. The attraction is promoted as “The biggest dinosaurs park in South-Eastern Europe and the newest in the entire Europe”. Mayor Adrian Veștea stated that “Dino Parc is a project which, together with Râșnov Fortress, visited last year by 240,000 tourists, and other objectives, will attract even more tourists. If in 2004 we offered 100 accommodations, we currently reached over 2,500. Most investment projects have been accomplished with European funding, Norwegian funding and we will continue on this path. I am convinced that in two years Râșnov will welcome over 400,000 tourists annually”. Dino Park Râșnov is a project in value of 5 million Euros, financed from European funding. The park is open daily between the hours of 9:30-20:00. The ticket price is 28 lei (about 6 Euros) for adults and 22 lei (about 5 Euros) for children. Children under three years of age have free entrance.\r\n\r\nSEA DEVILS at GRIGORE ANTIPA Museum\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWEPA (Wildlife Ecology Photography Association) opened on the 11th of June, in collaboration with “Grigore Antipa” National Museum of Natural History and the Embassy of Mexico in Romania, the exhibition “Remarkable meetings – Socorro Sea Devils”.

Cum aflăm însă dacă a fost fericit sau nu în hotelul nostru? Un proprietar este fericit dacă obține profit. Dar cum o poate face mai eficient! Cu siguranță, amândoi își procură satisfacții inspirându-se și aplicând noile tehnologii. Costă. Dar și produc pe măsură dacă înveți să le aplici.\r\n\r\nTCNET promovează soluția EzRMS pentru hoteluri\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nTCNET, unul dintre cei mai dinamici furnizori de soft pentru industria ospitalității (deține un portofoliu de peste 1.000 de clienți construit în 20 de ani de activitate), a anunță lansarea EzRMS, prima soluție profesionistă de Revenue Management disponibilă la nivel larg hotelierilor din România. Ea funcționează ca un consultant de business pentru dezvoltarea afacerilor hoteliere și creșterea profitului jucătorilor din industrie. Evenimentul are loc în cadrul parteneriatului strategic încheiat în 2013 cu compania americană Infor, aflată în Top 3 al celor mai mari furnizori de servicii software la nivel mondial, care a dezvoltat și platforma EzRMS. “Regulile jocului se modifică permanent pe piața turistică. Procesul este determinat, dar în același timp susținut de către noile tehnologii. Pe piața hotelieră din România, Revenue Management a fost prezent mai mult ca și concept până în 2015. Procesul în sine de management specializat al veniturilor este realizat prin intermediul unor soluții software doar în cazul câtorva lanțuri internaționale mari, care dispun de propriile sisteme la nivel de rețea. Soluția EzRMS este primul sistem global de management al veniturilor disponibil pentru instalare la nivel de industrie în România” - menționează Andrei Verboncu, Managing Director al companiei TCNET.\r\n\r\n\r\nLa rândul său Niels Mekenkamp, director la Hospitality Pre-Sales- EMEA, a arătat în timpul unei prezentări făcute la București că ”Întreaga filosofie a sistemului poate porni de la aceste constatării: nu camerele sunt produsul de vânzare într-un hotel, ci strategia de preț. Prețul corect nu e cel mai mare nici cel mai mic, ci cel mai prietenos și acceptat de consumator. Ca să obținem un profit mai mare trebuie să gândim flexibil, nestandardizat. Profitul depinde de cercetare și campaniile de marketing. Noua soluție de Revenue Management permite creșterea veniturilor și maximizarea gradului de ocupare, protejând și menținând tarifele hotelului la nivel optimizat. EzRMS pune la dispoziția hotelului rapoarte statistice exacte și oferă informații despre prognoza cererii. Soluția permite o reacție rapidă la influențele pieței, cu ajutorul analizei concurenței pe ambele ramuri (internet și GDS). În ceea ce privește rezultatele, experiența internațională dovedește un return extrem de rapid al investiției: în termen de câteva luni de la implementare, hotelurile înregistrează creșteri de 4-7% a veniturilor, fără a avea creșteri suplimentare de costuri. La nivel de profitabilitate, rezultatele din turism, dar și din alte industrii care folosesc soluții de Revenue Management, confirmă creșteri cu valori cuprinse între 50 si 70%”.\r\nLansarea soluției EzRMS pe piața locală vine după ce în 2014, TCNET a lansat în România prima soluție de Online direct booking (In1) care integrează în aceeași platformă rețelele sociale și site-ul hotelului. Soluția In1 este folosită în prezent pentru rezervarea a peste 2.000 de camere de hotel din România și, conform rezultatelor obținute pe piața locală, poate aduce o creștere de peste 50% a veniturilor din rezervări directe.\r\nConform datelor oficiale, în România funcționează mai mult de 1.600 de hoteluri clasificate între 1 și 5 stele. Impactul folosirii unei soluții de Revenue Management este resimțit cel mai puternic în afacerile cu un grad de complexitate mai ridicat: hoteluri ratificate începând de la 3 stele, cu un număr de minimum 50 de camere per locație. La nivel internațional, soluția EzRMS este folosită în prezent de peste 7.000 de hoteluri din 71 de țări localizate pe toate continentele.\r\n\r\nDragoș Petrescu a preluat conducerea HORA\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nHORA – Organizația Patronală a Hotelurilor și Restaurantelor din România - a anunțat alegerea lui Dragoș Petrescu în funcția de Președinte al Organizației. Acesta a preluat mandatul de la Tinu Sebeșanu, primul Președinte și inițiatorul organizației. Misiunea HORA este aceea de a reuni proprietarii din industria ospitalității într-o comunitate reprezentativă și durabilă, construită pe baza unor principii comune fundamentale: tradiția bunei ospitalități românești, pasiunea pentru servicii impecabile, credința în spiritul antreprenorial de profil etc. În primii doi ani de la înființare, HORA a reușit să dezvolte o reputație și un capital de imagine sănătos, lărgindu-și în mod constant comunitatea.\r\n”Pe lânga obiectivele economico-sociale stabilite la preluarea mandatului, o importanță deosebită o are extinderea organizației la nivel regional, prin cooptarea de noi membri relevanți din toate colțurile țării. Consider că solidaritatea și coeziunea membrilor HORA sunt atributele care vor face diferența pe piața de profil și în relația cu autoritățile și instituțiile de reglementare în domeniu” - a declarat Dragoș Petrescu.\r\n\r\nANGELA SIMION\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n','Tehnologia schimbă regulile jocului în hoteluri, INDUSTRIE HOTELIERA nr.135-136','','inherit','open','open','','3978-revision-v1','','','2015-09-26 15:58:42','2015-09-26 13:58:42','',3978,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/09/26/3978-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4048,1,'2015-09-26 17:45:00','2015-09-26 15:45:00','','bulgaria','','inherit','open','open','','bulgaria','','','2015-09-26 17:45:00','2015-09-26 15:45:00','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/bulgaria.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4049,1,'2015-09-26 14:22:48','2015-09-26 12:22:48','[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"4052,4053,4054,4055\"]\r\n\r\nPolitica face mult rău turismului grecesc. Dincolo de stilul alarmist propagat de canalele TV industria turistică încearcă să combată o zvonistica ieftină. Conform unui raport comunicat de SETE (Asociația Companiilor de Turism din Grecia, sinonim cu ANAT-ul nostru), în acest an Elada se aşteaptă să obțină din turism peste 14 miliarde de euro, ce vor proveni de pe urma a circa 25 de milioane de sosiri internaționale.\r\n\r\nDestinațiile clasice (Atena, Salonic, Creta, Corfu, Santorini, Zakintos, Mikonos etc) atrag o mare parte din călătorii internaționali. Dar grecii propun în fiecare an noi atracții pe care le scot din ”buzunarul de rezervă”. O parte sunt concentrate chiar în Macedonia de Est și Tracia - o regiune a Greciei continentale bogată în vestigii istorice, zone naturale, gastronomie și tradiții. Democrit spunea într-un discurs: ”Veniți și ne vizitați și veți reveni de bunăvoie!” Georgios Pavlidis, guvernatorul Regiunii întărește invitația. Plecăm spre noi locuri care vor fascina cu siguranță pe turiștii români, foarte apreciați și respectați, după cum spuneam în numărul trecut, și în această regiune grecească.\r\n\r\nDe la FILLIPI pe VIA EGNATIA\r\n\r\nFillippi, Kavala, Maroneia, Drama au în comun Via Egnatia. Vă mai aduceți aminte? E chiar celebru drum ce lega Roma, capitala imperiului, de coloniile sale. Încărcătura istorică este impresionantă iar siturile arheologice pe măsură. Fillipi, orașul antic, e un site ce nu trebuie ratat. Datează din secolul al IV-lea ÎCh și a fost construit de către Filip al II-lea. De aici i se trage și numele. Pe oriunde v-ați plimba veți atinge vestigiile importante ale orașului: biserici, amfiteatre, piața, toaletele publice (vespasienele), o presă pentru strivit strugurii etc. Din era creștină locul este marcat de prezența Apostolului Pavel căci locul în care se spune că a fost încarcerat de romani a devenit zonă de pelerinaj a creștinătății. De altfel, în apropiere se află un complex mănăstiresc care adăpostește Baptiserul Sfintei Lidia, primul creștin botezat de Sf. Pavel în Europa. Locul este un reper pentru toți creștinii nu doar cei aparținând ortodoxiei. Toate religiile sunt prezente aici pentru a se bucura de puterea apei de botez din pârâul ce curge în grădină, considerată de către credincioși că a fost sfințită prin lucrarea Sf. Apostol Pavel. Și tot aproape de Maroneia, ascuns într-o livadă de măslini se află un Amfiteatru roman cu o priveliște uluitoare la mare. El adăpostește periodic festivaluri și concerte de muzică clasică.\r\n\r\nKAVALA - pe urmele lui Mehmet Ali\r\n\r\nKavala înseamnă... călare. Dacă nu ai ști unde te afli ai crede că ești pe o insulă. Construcțiile cocoțate pe dealuri par că alunecă încet spre mare. E doar o iluzie optică. Imaginea de marcă a orașului e dată de Arcade (Kamares) vestigiile apeductului medieval ce parcă taie linia orizontului și de Imaret, o serie de drumuri construite de Mehmet Ali la 1817. Acropola cetății, farul, primăria orașului (ce amintește de Budapesta), toate sunt repere turistice. Străbătute la pas, străduțele vechi te conduc încet spre zona modernă, unde se află o impresionantă biserică închinată Sfîntului Pavel. Ea amintește tuturor că regiunea se află sub binecunvântarea prezenței sale pe aceste locuri.\r\nPriviți cu atenție leul care străjuiește una din trecerile pe sub apeduct. Este aceeași cu imaginea ce se regăsește și pe bancnotele euro emise de Grecia. Încă o remarcă. În piațeta orașului vechi ghidul care ne însoțește ne arată unica statuie a unui turc musulman care se află în Grecia. Și Casa Muzeu și statuia sunt legate de numele lui Mehmet Ali (1769–1849). O figură legendară, Pașă al Egiptului, el a trăit mai mulți ani la Kavala.\r\n\r\nDRAMA - păsări rare și mori de apă\r\n\r\nCuvântul de referință al orașului este apa. Ai senzația că orașul a fost construit pe un lac subteran, și probabil că așa și e degrabă ce mustește de râuri naturale ce izvorăsc cu forță din inima sa. Ce ne-a impresionat la edili? Modul în care știu să-și transforme vechile construcții, dîndu-le o nouă utilitate și deci și o altă identitate. Am vizitat o clădire nouă, cel puțin așa părea la prima vedere. Un hotel modern de 5 stele cu toate facilitățile actuale. Acesta a fost amenajat într-o clădire istorică unde se afla un depozit de tutun. Inutil să spunem că toate elementele arhitectonice și identitatea vizuală a acesteia au fost conservate și puse în valoare. O lecție de învățat.\r\n\r\nSigur, în acest context, vizitarea peșterii Aggitis aflată la 25 de kilometri de Drama a devenit o probă obligatorie. Cadrul natural oferit de pădurile muntelui Falakro constituie casa perfectă pentru izvoarele râului Aggitis, care de-a lungul a peste 30.000 de ani a creat peștera cu același nume. Vizitatorii pot parcurge în interiorul său un traseul lung de 500 de metri, amenajat special pentru amatorii de fotografii ori pur și simplu pentru primbări pe... promenada subterană. Locul a fost descoperit întâmplător de exploratorul francez Cousinery, la sfârșitul secolului al XVIII-lea. Forma acestei peșteri, aproape circulară a permis instalarea, în timpul ocupației otomane de la începutul secolului XX, a unei Mori de apă ce a stat la baza creării unui sistem de irigații în zonă. Impactul asupra vizitatorilor este dublat și de faptul că peștera beneficiază de o ieșire naturală, spectaculoasă dar foarte greu accesibilă. Aviz amatorilor de aventură.\r\nPentru că tot am atins acest capitol iubitorii de adrenalină au la dispoziție diverse oportunități. Doar le punctăm: fascinanta pădure Dadia, casa ultimelor păsări de pradă rare din Europa; programe de caiac-canoe și rafting în defileele râului Nestos; lacul Vistonida cu o floră și faună unice; peștera Ciclopului Polifem; delta râului Evros și multe altele.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDocumentare realizată cu sprijinul logistic al Biroului din București al Organizației Elene de Turism (EOT), Prefectura Regiunii Macedonia de Est și Tracia\r\nAgenției de turism HTS','VARĂ GRECEASCĂ - Sfânta Lidia prin labiritul de măslini (2), MAPAMOND nr.135-136','','publish','open','open','','vara-greceasca-sfanta-lidia-prin-labiritul-de-maslini-2-mapamond-nr-135-136','','','2015-09-26 18:04:18','2015-09-26 16:04:18','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=4049',0,'post','',0),(4057,1,'2015-09-26 18:07:03','2015-09-26 16:07:03','','talonabonament','','inherit','open','open','','talonabonament','','','2015-09-26 18:07:03','2015-09-26 16:07:03','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/talonabonament.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4061,1,'2015-10-11 12:30:47','2015-10-11 10:30:47','','iubesc-vinul-omanesc','','inherit','open','open','','iubesc-vinul-omanesc','','','2015-10-11 12:30:47','2015-10-11 10:30:47','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/iubesc-vinul-omanesc.gif',0,'attachment','image/gif',0),(4063,1,'2015-11-03 00:22:24','2015-11-02 22:22:24','','Banner Camera signa_690x192','','inherit','open','open','','banner-camera-signa_690x192','','','2015-11-03 00:32:04','2015-11-02 22:32:04','',4064,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/Banner-Camera-signa_690x192.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4064,1,'2015-11-03 00:32:08','2015-11-02 22:32:08','Pe 10 noiembrie 2015 Camera de Comerţ Italianã pentru România organizeazã evenimentul intitulat \"SIGNA MARIS – Polo Baia di Napoli\", menit sã promoveze în țara noastră acest proiect finanţat de Ministerul Culturii şi Turismului din Italia.\r\n![\"Banner](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/Banner-Camera-signa_690x192.jpg\")

The idea was presented at the Congress of the Bulgarian Union of Balneology and Spa Tourism that took place in the Bulgarian city of Sandanski. The programme \"Roman Spa Thermal centers in Europe\" reunites associations and resorts in Romania, Bulgaria, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Portugal and Greece.\r\nThe programmes offer the tourists the possibility of travelling and enjoying spa treatments in two resorts, one in Romania and one in Bulgaria. Out of the eight days the first ones will be spent in Băile Herculane (Romania), the visitors will then see Sofia, Varset, Plovdiv – Cultural capital of Europe in 2019 – in Bulgaria and be hosted in the resort of Hisaria.\r\nThe general secretary of The European Spa Association (ESPA), Joachim Lieber, coordinator of the project said that this is the first cross border product and clients will be able to book it on-line.\r\n\r\nACCOR thinks of... digital hispitality\r\n![\"Accor](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/Accor-engl.jpg\")

The cultural capital of the region of Moldova will now be connected directly with Rome, Paris and London. ”The Iaşi International Airport is the 5th operational hub of Blue Air and the opening of these three new routes shows our belief in the development potential of this region.

\r\nCel mai apreciat cotidian italian, Corriere Della Sera (cu un tiraj zilnic de circa 400.000 de exemplare) a publicat un articol despre schimbările prin care a trecut Cetatea Alba Carolina din Alba Iulia și despre cum poate renaște un oraș, prin investiții europene. Deși în media italiană România și românii sunt adeseori prezentați dintr-o perspectiva negativă, Alba Iulia a reușit să fie reversul medaliei și să le arate italienilor cititori de Corriere Della Sera o latură frumoasă, încântătoare a României. “Cetatea Alba Carolina – restaurată cu peste 50 de milioane de euro, fonduri europene se dovedește a fi un model” - scrie Guglielmini Fabrizio, autorul articolului în introducerea materialului care aduce în discuție și importanța istorică precum și creșterea numărului de turiști înregistrată de oraș de la finalizarea lucrărilor. ”Alba Iulia este un oraș mic dar cu o mare istorie” afirmă în articol Nicolae Moldovan, City Managerul municipiului. „12 kilometri de ziduri fortificate au fost refăcute și restaurate. 400.000 de vizitatori anual și o creștere a mențiunilor sloganului orașului, Cealaltă Capitală” sunt primele rezultate datorate acestor investiții. Autorul precizează și importanța rating-ului Ba1 acordat de Moody’s pentru bugetul orașului, precum și pe cea a acordului cu Banca Mondială de a supraveghea planurile financiare ale orașului și subliniază foarte buna conexiune pe care o are localitatea cu Aeroportul Internațional Sibiu, aflat la doar 70 de kilometri distanță.\r\nCorriere Della Sera este cel mai popular ziar italian. El este și cel mai vechi din media italiană. Primul număr a fost publicat pe 5 martie 1876.\r\n\r\nPROMENADE la Mamaia și Mangalia\r\nDeși a fost finalizat cu un an mai târziu decât era prevăzut Proiectul de reabilitare a promenadei turistice din statiunea Mamaia, este apreciat de către vilegiaturiști. Investiția a fost de peste 68 de milioane de lei și a beneficiat de finanțare europeano. Conform managerului proiectului, doamna Ani Merlă acesta a fost cel mai mare proiect al Primariei Constanta cu fonduri europene in exercitiul financiar 2007-2013, prin programul Regio. Proiectul a avut ca scop dezvoltarea si promovarea turismului prin reabilitarea infrastructurii publice urbane din statiunea Mamaia, mai exact modernizarea si reamenajarea promenadei turistice din Constanta - zona Sat Vacanta si statiunea Mamaia. Lucrarile au realizate de un consortiu format din firmele ABC Val, Mobitom si UTI.\r\nUn alt proiect venit parcă la concurență are în vedere refacerea Falezei pietonale din Mangalia până în stațiunea Olimp pe o distanță de 9 kilometri.\r\n![\"ev.](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/ev.-Aleea-Teilor.jpg\")
\r\nDenumit Aleea Teilor, el beneficiază de asemenea de fonduri europene. Primaria Mangalia derulează în paralel încă un proiect ce vizează amenjarea unui parc pe locul unei foste statii de betoane dezafectate. Cele doua proiecte au o valoare de 34,5 milioane de lei și sunt realizate in cadrul POR.\r\n\r\nCOOPERARE: Pachete SPA trans-frontaliere\r\nDe anul viitor Romania și Bulgaria vor oferi pachete turistice comune în centre spa în cadrul unui proiect finanțat de Uniunea Europeană. Acesta a fost prezentat în cadrul congresului Uniunii Bulgare a Balneologiei și Turismului desfășurat în orașul bulgăresc Sandanski. Programul \"Centre termale romane spa în Europa\" reunește asociații și stațiuni spa din România, Bulgaria, Franța, Germania, Ungaria, Italia, Portugalia și Grecia.\r\nProgramele vor oferi turiștilor posibilitatea să călătorească și să beneficieze de serviciile de tratament ori de întreținere din două stațiuni balneare, una în România alta în Bulgaria. Rezervările pentru acest program vor putea fi făcute online. Secretarul general al Asociației Europene Spa (ESPA), Joachim Lieber, coordonator al proiectului, a precizat că acesta va fi primul produs turistic trans-frontalier. Pachetul turistic include 8 zile, primele urmând a fi petrecute în stațiunea Băile Herculane. Ulterior, turiștii vor vizita capitala Bulgariei - Sofia -, și orașul stațiune Vârșeț, urmând să fie cazați în stațiunea Hisaria. În program se regăsește și o excursie în orașul Plovdiv, care va fi Capitală Culturală Europeană în 2019.\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON\r\n\r\n\r\nTAMINA ARE CEL MAI SPECTACULOS POD SUSPENDAT\r\n![\"Ev](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/Ev-Parc-tamina.jpg\")
\r\nCanionului Tamina din Masivul Piatra Mare beneficiază de un proiect ce prevede o serie de amenajări extrem de importante pentru atragerea turiștilor. Printre acestea figurează construirea de scări, poduri suspendate cu lanțuri, o pasarelă suspendată la 110 metri altitudine deasupra canionului, o zonă de belvedere etc. Atracția principală a canionului este Cascada Tamina. Ea prezintă 7 căderi de apă între 5 și 15 metri și se află amplasată la o altitudine de 1.100 de metri. Cel mai spectaculos pod se află la 1.300 de metri altitudine și e lung de 152 de metri. Valoarea proiectului este de circa 177.000 euro, sumă asigurată de administrația locală din taxa de intrare în Canionul 7 Scări, reamenajat tot de Regia Pădurilor Săcele a județului Brașov. Lucrările for fi finalizate în vara anului viitor - a declarat Cristian Popa, șeful serviciului turistic al Regiei.\r\n\r\nAUTORITATEA NAȚIONALĂ PENTRU TURISM (ANT)\r\n...a anunțat că intenționează să deschidă în acest an o nouă reprezentanță de promovare turistică la Beijing, a cărei funcționare necesită fonduri anuale de circa 50.000 de euro.

Țara dumneavoastră e foarte specială. Noi am dezvoltat o divizie internațională care se ocupă cu promovarea stațiunii Vichy ce a primit acest statut pe vremea lui Napoleon al III-lea. De 2000 de ani Vichy oferă tratamente pe baza de apă de Vichy. Prin proceduri ultramoderne (îngrijire, activitate fizică și dietă) oferim tratamente specifice. Deținem cel mai mare Spa termal din Europa (circa 7.200 de metri pătrați), iar datorită calității serviciilor noastre am fost nominalizați în Top 3 destinații din Europa la World Spa Award 2013. Vichy reprezintă excelența în hidroterapie iar la acest tablou se adaugă cele 40 de hectare de parcuri și grădini, magnificele Thermes de Vichy, unica Opera în stil Art-Nouveau, două terenuri de golf cu 18 găuri, un hipodrom, sporturi nautice, un compex sportiv etc. Sunt încântată că împreună cu specialiști români putem dezvolta concepte în Centrul Spa de la Breaza, o stațiune cu un mare potențial natural” - ne-a declarat Natacha Iakovlena - directorul de vânzări internaționale al Compagnie de Vichy – France.\r\n\r\nPrezentarea de la hotelul Cișmigiu din București a fost urmată de Colocviul internațional ”Sănătate prin apă și aer, aspecte bio” organizat de Asociația ”Dezvoltăm Breaza” în stațiunea prahoveană.

CONSTANTINESCU\r\nFoto: VASILE COSTRUȘ\r\n\r\nCORIERRE DELLA SERA: „Alba Iulia este un model de marketing turistic!”\r\n\r\nCel mai apreciat cotidian italian, Corriere Della Sera (cu un tiraj zilnic de circa 400.000 de exemplare) a publicat un articol despre schimbările prin care a trecut Cetatea Alba Carolina din Alba Iulia și despre cum poate renaște un oraș, prin investiții europene. Deși în media italiană România și românii sunt adeseori prezentați dintr-o perspectiva negativă, Alba Iulia a reușit să fie reversul medaliei și să le arate italienilor cititori de Corriere Della Sera o latură frumoasă, încântătoare a României. “Cetatea Alba Carolina – restaurată cu peste 50 de milioane de euro, fonduri europene se dovedește a fi un model” - scrie Guglielmini Fabrizio, autorul articolului în introducerea materialului care aduce în discuție și importanța istorică precum și creșterea numărului de turiști înregistrată de oraș de la finalizarea lucrărilor. ”Alba Iulia este un oraș mic dar cu o mare istorie” afirmă în articol Nicolae Moldovan, City Managerul municipiului. „12 kilometri de ziduri fortificate au fost refăcute și restaurate. 400.000 de vizitatori anual și o creștere a mențiunilor sloganului orașului, Cealaltă Capitală” sunt primele rezultate datorate acestor investiții. Autorul precizează și importanța rating-ului Ba1 acordat de Moody’s pentru bugetul orașului, precum și pe cea a acordului cu Banca Mondială de a supraveghea planurile financiare ale orașului și subliniază foarte buna conexiune pe care o are localitatea cu Aeroportul Internațional Sibiu, aflat la doar 70 de kilometri distanță.\r\nCorriere Della Sera este cel mai popular ziar italian. El este și cel mai vechi din media italiană. Primul număr a fost publicat pe 5 martie 1876.\r\n\r\nPROMENADE la Mamaia și Mangalia\r\nDeși a fost finalizat cu un an mai târziu decât era prevăzut Proiectul de reabilitare a promenadei turistice din statiunea Mamaia, este apreciat de către vilegiaturiști. Investiția a fost de peste 68 de milioane de lei și a beneficiat de finanțare europeano. Conform managerului proiectului, doamna Ani Merlă acesta a fost cel mai mare proiect al Primariei Constanta cu fonduri europene in exercitiul financiar 2007-2013, prin programul Regio. Proiectul a avut ca scop dezvoltarea si promovarea turismului prin reabilitarea infrastructurii publice urbane din statiunea Mamaia, mai exact modernizarea si reamenajarea promenadei turistice din Constanta - zona Sat Vacanta si statiunea Mamaia. Lucrarile au realizate de un consortiu format din firmele ABC Val, Mobitom si UTI.\r\nUn alt proiect venit parcă la concurență are în vedere refacerea Falezei pietonale din Mangalia până în stațiunea Olimp pe o distanță de 9 kilometri.\r\n\r\nDenumit Aleea Teilor, el beneficiază de asemenea de fonduri europene. Primaria Mangalia derulează în paralel încă un proiect ce vizează amenjarea unui parc pe locul unei foste statii de betoane dezafectate. Cele doua proiecte au o valoare de 34,5 milioane de lei și sunt realizate in cadrul POR.\r\n\r\nCOOPERARE: Pachete SPA trans-frontaliere\r\nDe anul viitor Romania și Bulgaria vor oferi pachete turistice comune în centre spa în cadrul unui proiect finanțat de Uniunea Europeană. Acesta a fost prezentat în cadrul congresului Uniunii Bulgare a Balneologiei și Turismului desfășurat în orașul bulgăresc Sandanski. Programul \"Centre termale romane spa în Europa\" reunește asociații și stațiuni spa din România, Bulgaria, Franța, Germania, Ungaria, Italia, Portugalia și Grecia.\r\nProgramele vor oferi turiștilor posibilitatea să călătorească și să beneficieze de serviciile de tratament ori de întreținere din două stațiuni balneare, una în România alta în Bulgaria. Rezervările pentru acest program vor putea fi făcute online. Secretarul general al Asociației Europene Spa (ESPA), Joachim Lieber, coordonator al proiectului, a precizat că acesta va fi primul produs turistic trans-frontalier. Pachetul turistic include 8 zile, primele urmând a fi petrecute în stațiunea Băile Herculane. Ulterior, turiștii vor vizita capitala Bulgariei - Sofia -, și orașul stațiune Vârșeț, urmând să fie cazați în stațiunea Hisaria. În program se regăsește și o excursie în orașul Plovdiv, care va fi Capitală Culturală Europeană în 2019.\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON\r\n\r\n\r\nTAMINA ARE CEL MAI SPECTACULOS POD SUSPENDAT\r\n\r\nCanionului Tamina din Masivul Piatra Mare beneficiază de un proiect ce prevede o serie de amenajări extrem de importante pentru atragerea turiștilor. Printre acestea figurează construirea de scări, poduri suspendate cu lanțuri, o pasarelă suspendată la 110 metri altitudine deasupra canionului, o zonă de belvedere etc. Atracția principală a canionului este Cascada Tamina. Ea prezintă 7 căderi de apă între 5 și 15 metri și se află amplasată la o altitudine de 1.100 de metri. Cel mai spectaculos pod se află la 1.300 de metri altitudine și e lung de 152 de metri. Valoarea proiectului este de circa 177.000 euro, sumă asigurată de administrația locală din taxa de intrare în Canionul 7 Scări, reamenajat tot de Regia Pădurilor Săcele a județului Brașov. Lucrările for fi finalizate în vara anului viitor - a declarat Cristian Popa, șeful serviciului turistic al Regiei.\r\n\r\nAUTORITATEA NAȚIONALĂ PENTRU TURISM (ANT)\r\n...a anunțat că intenționează să deschidă în acest an o nouă reprezentanță de promovare turistică la Beijing, a cărei funcționare necesită fonduri anuale de circa 50.000 de euro.

S-ar părea că hotelierii sunt preocupați numai de vânătoarea de bani. O fi așa, că sezonul e scurt și la munte și la mare și acum e bătaia peștelui. În același timp unii investitori își recalibrează planurile atât în lanțurile internaționale cât și în complexe locale ce vor fi sarea și piperul călătoriilor noastre!\r\n\r\n\r\nACCOR: Ospitalitate pe platformă... digitală\r\n\r\nAccorHotels și-a relansat sistemul digital prin transformarea platformei de distribuţie AccorHotels.com într-o piaţă deschisă unei selecţii de hoteluri independente. Oaspeții pot să acceseze acest serviciu din luna iulie 2015. În timp, obiectivul este ca oferta să ajungă la peste 10.000 de hoteluri în 300 de oraşe cheie la nivel mondial, respectiv o creştere triplă a numărului de hoteluri pe AccorHotels.com. Iniţiativa face parte din procesul de transformare a Grupului, iniţiat în 2013. Hotelurile independente listate pe platforma AccorHotels.com alături de hotelurile de brand ale grupului vor fi selectate pe baza criteriilor hoteliere, fiind luate în considerare şi referinţele clienţilor. AccorHotels.com este deja platforma online lider în Franţa, Brazilia, Australia, Germania etc. Această nouă ofertă le oferă hotelierilor condiții transparente de afișare a produsului lor, acces la informații despre clienții proprii și un nivel de comision competitiv - a declarat Sébastien Bazin, Președinte și CEO al AccorHotels. Recenta iniţiativă completează serviciile dezvoltate de FastBooking, o companie preluată de Grup în luna aprilie a acestui an.\r\nDe asemenea AccorHotels a mai anunțat că Pullman Bucharest World Trade Center, Novotel Bucharest City Center și Mercure Bucharest City Center sunt primele hoteluri din România ale brandului Accor care au implementat Welcome by Le Club Accorhotels, un serviciu digital exclusiv oferit clienților. Welcome by Le Club Accorhotels face parte din strategia digitală a grupului Accor. Această soluție digitală adoptată de grup la nivel global revoluționează sistemul de primire a oaspeților în hotelurile Accor. Obiectivul este simplu: utilizarea tehnologiei digitale pentru a oferi clienților o experiență unică, personalizată la sosire.\r\n\r\n\r\nORADEA: Nymphaea vine cu POR\r\n\r\nPe locul fostului ștrand municipal din Oradea va apărea un Complex de wellness termal ce va purta denumirea \"Nymphaea\". Proiectul ”Dezvoltarea turismului de agrement prin crearea complexului Wellness Termal Nymphaea Oradea” prevede construirea a 6 corpuri de clădire, 7 bazine exterioare și o serie de amenajări peisajere, sportive și de agrement, va fi dezvoltat pe o suprafață totală construită de aproximativ 12.200 metri pătrați.\r\n\r\nAcesta va fi primul aquapark din Oradea. Contractul are o valoare de peste 86 de milioane de lei și este cofinanțat de Uniunea Europeană în cadrul Programului Operațional Regional (POR). Dezvoltatorul complexului este firma KESZ Epito es Szerelo ZRT din Ungaria, câștigătorul licitației pentru derularea investiției.\r\n\r\nOTOPENI: Birouri și hotel\r\nCompania austriacă S+B Gruppe a anunțat că va derula o investiție de circa 20 de milioane de euro ce va avea ca obiect un hotel, cu va oferi 250 de camere, ce va fi amplasat în vecinătatea Aeroportului Otopeni pe un teren cu o suprafață de circa 30.000 de metri pătrați. Conform declarației lui Michael Becker, proprietarul AMB Holding, care deține 50% din S+B Gruppe, există negocieri avansate cu un lanț internațional sub al cărui brand ar putea opera acesta încă de la deschidere. Tot în aceeași zonă compania dorește dezvoltarea unei clădiri de birouri dar și a unui proiect logistic. S+B Gruppe deține în București clădirile de birouri Magheru One și Pipera Business Tower.\r\n\r\nTURDA: Miza pe Potaissa Spa\r\n\r\nSocietatea care administreaza Salina Turda, unul dintre cele mai apreciate și frecventate obiective turistice din România, s-a gândit să își diversifice serviciile din oferta turistică. După cum a declarat conducerea SC Turda Salina Durgău SA, s-a dorit derularea unei investiții de circa 10 milioane de lei din care a rezultat Centrul balnear Potaissa Spa.\r\n\r\nEl a fost amenajat în incinta unui vechi hotel din orașul Turda și dispune de un bazin cu apă la o temperatura de 28 de grade Celsius, jacuzzi, saună uscată și umedă, aparate fitness-cardio etc. Finanțarea a fost asigurată dintr-un credit bancar garantat de Consiliul Local. Conform aceleiași surse noul complex balnear contribuie deja la diversificarea ofertelor pentru turiștii români ori străini ce aleg să viziteze orașul și împrejurimile lui.\r\n\r\nBLOOMBERG: Top cazări în 106 orașe\r\nSpecialiștii de la Bloomberg au realizat un clasament în care au fost clasificate 106 orașe, criteriul principal fiind prețul mediu al unei nopți de cazare (un loc) într-o cameră dublă.

Din numărul total de înnoptări înregistrate în 2014 structurile de primire turistică au însumat 20,23 milioane, în creștere cu 4,8 față de 2013. Doar 18,6% au fost acoperite de călătorii străini.

\r\nJumătate din hoteluri sunt de 3 stele\r\nCapacitatea de cazare turistică existentă la 31 iulie 2014 a crescut cu 2% faţă de aceeaşi dată a anului trecut. Ca o prima observație numărul hotelurilor a fost depăşit de cel al pensiunilor agroturistice. Numărul total al acestor structuri a ajuns la 6130 (o creștere față de aceeși perioadă a 2013 de 121 unități). În materie de hoteluri erau înregistrate 1473 de unități (+28), la pensiuni turistice 1323 (-12) iar la pensiuni agroturistice 1665 (+67 de unități). Conform Autorității Naționale de Turism (ANT) aproape jumătate din hoteluri erau clasificate cu 3 stele. Din numărul total de locuri în hoteluri, 40,0% au fost în hotelurile cu 3 stele, 32,8% au fost în hoteluri cu 2 stele, 19,8% în hotelurile cu 4 stele, 3,9% în hotelurile cu 5 stele, 3,1% în hotelurile cu o stea, şi 0,4% în hotelurile neclasificate pe stele. Cele mai multe hoteluri erau încadrate la categoria 3 stele (50,0% din total) şi 2 stele (25,3%). Hotelurile cu 5 stele au depășit pragul de 31 (cu două mai mult ca la 31 iulie 2013), iar cele cu 4 stele au fost 267 (cu 15 mai multe decât la data de referință). INS atrăgea atenția la 31 iulie 2014 că în România funcționau neclasificate pe stele 120 structuri de primire turistică, cu 3 mai puțin decât în 2013. Cea mai mare parte au fost tabere de elevi şi preşcolari (51,7% din total în anul 2014, respectiv 50,4% în anul 2013). Din cele 1.473 hoteluri în stare de funcţionare, 6 unități (0,4% din total hoteluri), cu un total de 747 locuri, nu erau clasificate pe stele.\r\nÎntr-un Top 5 al capacităților de cazare turistică primele cinci judeţe, au fost Braşov (787 structuri de cazare), urmat de Constanţa (746), Harghita (321), Suceava (296) şi Prahova (286).\r\n![\"Statistica](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/Statistica-5.jpg\")

Din totalul de 141,100 de camere existente în structurile de primire turistică cu funcţiuni de cazare existente la 31 iulie 2014 (exclusiv camerele din căsuţe), 93,700 (66,4%) erau în hoteluri. Numărul de camere a crescut în 2014 cu 1444 în hoteluri, cu 776 în pensiunile agroturistice, cu 233 în hosteluri, cu 53 în cabane turistice, cu 48 în sate de vacanţă. Numărul locurilor de cazare turistică a fost de 311.300. Cele mai multe - 186.200 -, erau în hoteluri.

\r\n\r\nINVESTEȘTI AZI, ai mâine\r\nCare a fost trendul investițiilor în turism în 2014? Ce tendințe se conturează pentru acest an! Conform experților de la IBC Focus din cele aproape 2800 de investiții încadrate și publicate pe www.raportuldeinvestitii.ro de-a lungul anului 2014 în categoria investițiilor Hotel&Relaxare, mai bine de jumătate (1500) sunt investiții în spații de cazare - hoteluri, pensiuni și alte unități de acest tip, restul fiind subiectul unor proiecte de agrement - săli de sport, bazine de înot, restaurante, centre culturale, muzee sau entertainment.

Industria turistică românească se dezvoltă. Unii experți cred însă că asistăm la o necorelare a ofertei cu cerințele publicului călător. Ambele părți așteaptă o întâlnire de dragoste. S-ar putea însă ca personajele poveștii de iubire să treacă unele pe lângă altele. Nimeni nu dorește acest lucru dar... se mai întâmplă.\r\n\r\n\r\nGERMANII domină piața vacanțelor\r\n2014 a fost mult mai generos cu sosirile înregistrate în structurile de primire turistică și funcțiuni de cazare. 6,9% a fost creșterea comparativ cu 2013. Din numărul total de înnoptări înregistrate în 2014 structurile de primire turistică au însumat 20,23 milioane, în creștere cu 4,8 față de 2013. Doar 18,6% au fost acoperite de călătorii străini. Majoritatea (75,7%) provin din Europa, iar dintre aceștia 84,4% au fost din țările aparținând Uniunii Europene. Deși e vehiculată ideea că majoritatea vizitatorilor sosesc la noi din țările apropiate vecine datele de sinteză ale Institutului Național de Statistică (INS) arată că majoritatea provin Europa Occidentală. Ungaria (106,481), Polonia (71,479) și bineînțeles SUA (113,420) sunt trei pete de... culoare în Topul primilor 10 furnizori de turiști străini către țara noastră.\r\nȘi piața autohtonă de vacanțe este dominată de consumatorii germani. Din totalul turiștilor străini veniți în 2014 la noi, nemții au furnizat 234,451. Ei sunt secondați de italieni (184,514), israelieni (139,425), francezi (123,779). Apoi, pe sărite vin britanicii (110,601), spaniolii (79,091), respectiv austriecii cu 60,907 turiști.\r\n\r\nJumătate din hoteluri sunt de 3 stele\r\nCapacitatea de cazare turistică existentă la 31 iulie 2014 a crescut cu 2% faţă de aceeaşi dată a anului trecut. Ca o prima observație numărul hotelurilor a fost depăşit de cel al pensiunilor agroturistice. Numărul total al acestor structuri a ajuns la 6130 (o creștere față de aceeși perioadă a 2013 de 121 unități). În materie de hoteluri erau înregistrate 1473 de unități (+28), la pensiuni turistice 1323 (-12) iar la pensiuni agroturistice 1665 (+67 de unități). Conform Autorității Naționale de Turism (ANT) aproape jumătate din hoteluri erau clasificate cu 3 stele. Din numărul total de locuri în hoteluri, 40,0% au fost în hotelurile cu 3 stele, 32,8% au fost în hoteluri cu 2 stele, 19,8% în hotelurile cu 4 stele, 3,9% în hotelurile cu 5 stele, 3,1% în hotelurile cu o stea, şi 0,4% în hotelurile neclasificate pe stele. Cele mai multe hoteluri erau încadrate la categoria 3 stele (50,0% din total) şi 2 stele (25,3%). Hotelurile cu 5 stele au depășit pragul de 31 (cu două mai mult ca la 31 iulie 2013), iar cele cu 4 stele au fost 267 (cu 15 mai multe decât la data de referință). INS atrăgea atenția la 31 iulie 2014 că în România funcționau neclasificate pe stele 120 structuri de primire turistică, cu 3 mai puțin decât în 2013. Cea mai mare parte au fost tabere de elevi şi preşcolari (51,7% din total în anul 2014, respectiv 50,4% în anul 2013). Din cele 1.473 hoteluri în stare de funcţionare, 6 unități (0,4% din total hoteluri), cu un total de 747 locuri, nu erau clasificate pe stele.\r\nÎntr-un Top 5 al capacităților de cazare turistică primele cinci judeţe, au fost Braşov (787 structuri de cazare), urmat de Constanţa (746), Harghita (321), Suceava (296) şi Prahova (286).\r\n\r\nCel mai tare la... cazare\r\nHotelurile au deţinut cea mai mare capacitate de cazare turistică. Din totalul de 141,100 de camere existente în structurile de primire turistică cu funcţiuni de cazare existente la 31 iulie 2014 (exclusiv camerele din căsuţe), 93,700 (66,4%) erau în hoteluri. Numărul de camere a crescut în 2014 cu 1444 în hoteluri, cu 776 în pensiunile agroturistice, cu 233 în hosteluri, cu 53 în cabane turistice, cu 48 în sate de vacanţă. Numărul locurilor de cazare turistică a fost de 311.300. Cele mai multe - 186.200 -, erau în hoteluri. Urmau pensiunile agroturistice cu 30.500 de locuri, pensiunile turistice cu 27.300 de locuri, vilele turistice cu 13.800 de locuri, campingurile cu 12.900 de locuri.\r\n\r\n\r\nINVESTEȘTI AZI, ai mâine\r\nCare a fost trendul investițiilor în turism în 2014? Ce tendințe se conturează pentru acest an! Conform experților de la IBC Focus din cele aproape 2800 de investiții încadrate și publicate pe www.raportuldeinvestitii.ro de-a lungul anului 2014 în categoria investițiilor Hotel&Relaxare, mai bine de jumătate (1500) sunt investiții în spații de cazare - hoteluri, pensiuni și alte unități de acest tip, restul fiind subiectul unor proiecte de agrement - săli de sport, bazine de înot, restaurante, centre culturale, muzee sau entertainment.

Din istoria acestor decenii am selectat evenimentele de turism care au consolidat structura de afaceri a Eurolines.\r\n![\"Eurolines](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/Eurolines-grup-1.jpg\")
\r\n\r\nÎn 1995 au intrat pe piață primele două agenţii de turism (Bucureşti şi Frankfurt), primele 3 autocare pentru cursele regulate către şi dinspre Germania; în 2004 a fost achiziționată Nova Travel, prima agenţie de turism din România, înfiinţată în 1990, care acum îndeplineşte funcţia de tour-operator al Grupului, pentru outgoing; în 2011 a fost semnat parteneriatul strategic cu Grupul TUI şi achiziţia Danubius Travel din Constanţa, unul dintre cei mai importanţi tour-operatori din ţară pentru incoming, înfiinţată în 1991. 2015 se conturează de asemenea ca foarte important pentru lansarea unei noi linii de business a Grupului - pe segmentul industriei ospitalității prin achiziționarea complexului Green Village din Sfântu Gheorghe, din Delta Dunării.\r\n![\"Eurolines](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/Eurolines-11.jpg\")
\r\n\r\nȘi cu CIPRIAN, 5\r\nCine se află în spatele acestui succes ? Oamenii care l-au construit. Cristian Băciucu, Directorul General Rombus Transport a devenit partenerul lui Dragoș Anastasiu din 1995, când s-a alăturat nou înfiinţatei companii Touring Europabus România. El este ”pilonul” la transporturi ocupând încă de atunci funcția de Director. Din 2006, odată cu separarea activităţilor şi restructurarea Grupului, Cristian a preluat postul de Director General al Rombus, companie care se ocupă de transportul de persoane sub brandul Eurolines. În fiecare an, cu autocarele Rombus călătoresc aproximativ 130. 000 de pasageri, care ating 100 destinații. Atunci când are timp liber, pasiunile nu-l ocolesc. E fan raliuri, schi, călătorii inedite.\r\nȘi Miki Lech, liderul Agenției NOVA Travel e pasionat de călătorii. Vorbește 5 limbi străine, și a abandonat o carieră promițătoare de inginer în favoarea turismului. Tot ce se mișcă în Grup în materie de travel poartă amprenta sa. A absolvit 2 școli de turism în Grecia și Austria iar experiența sa a fost decantată de 30 de ani de turism în care a organizat numeroase evenimente speciale. Printre ele și primul concert al lui Michael Jackson la Bucureşti.\r\nCosmin Marinof a intrat în business-ul Eurolines în urmă cu 9 ani. Dacă vrei să afli cum s-a construit rețeaua de vânzări a produselor din grup el poate demonta până la ultimul ”șurub” sistemul care stă la baza managementului de vânzări. Azi este Director Naţional de Vânzări și se ocupă de coordonarea întregii activităţi a reţelei TUI TravelCenter la nivel naţional. El a oferit expertiza și logistica pentru creșterea numărului de agenţii cu regim full-service (78 de birouri în prezent).\r\n![\"Eurolines](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/Eurolines-agentie-24.jpg\")
\r\n\r\nCel mai nou venit în poveste este Ciprian Popescu, directorul Danubius Travel. Un brașovean absorbit de Litoral unde și-a înființat agenția în 1991 și unde 12 ani mai târziu fuziona cu grupul TUI ce devenea acționarul principal al companiei.\r\n![\"EurolinesCiprian](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/EurolinesCiprian-popescu.jpg\")
\r\nÎn urmă cu 4 ani, tranzacțiile ”smart” au culminat cu preluarea de către Grupul Eurolines România a pachetului majoritar de acţiuni. Ciprian Popescu a dezvoltat paleta activităţilor Danubius Travel, incluzând şi distribuţia de hotelărie, prin preluarea reprezentanţei HotelBeds în România. El continuă să dezvolte în cadrul Grupului componentele de incoming. Și e un optimist incurabil: crede că România va redeveni o destinație vânată de turiștii străini.\r\n\r\nDRAGOȘ - El lider maximo\r\nÎn fine intră în scenă El lider maximo. Dragoş Anastasiu, e fondatorul Grupului Eurolines România, pornit în 1995 cu compania Touring Europabus România. După numai doi ani, aceasta devenea membră a celei mai importante reţele de transport internaţional de persoane: Eurolines. Pentru cei care nu știu Dragoș e medic de profesie și german prin adopție. În afara graniţelor ţării, a dezvoltat afaceri în Germania şi în Republica Moldova.\r\nCe crede azi despre business-ul pe care l-a construit? ”În urmă cu 20 de ani Eurolines însemna numai transporturi și nimeni nu ne întreba despre alte planuri. Azi, surprinzător, mass media și partenerii ne întreabă numai de turism. Este o schimbare uriașă de percepție și asta mă face să cred că că am lucrat serios și am crescut consistent în valoare. România mi-a oferit oportunități de crestere extraordinare, ca piață în formare, comparativ să spunem cu Germania, unde lucrurile sunt așezate de mult, și nu prea mai e loc să dai din umeri. Am realizat în țara noastră ce nu aș fi realizat nicăieri în altă parte. Ce mă bucură este că românii au început să acorde din ce în ce mai multă atenție detaliilor și caută cât mai multe informații. Ei se inspiră de pe Internet dar își cumpără vacanțele din agențiile de turism. Dincolo de cifre azi suntem preocupați de promovarea calității. Calitatea costă și asta trebuie învățat rapid. În această linie ne-am propuns să susținem și promovăm Robelo, un site cu recomandări ce va promova cele mai bune locații românești. Pe plan social vom continua să derulăm conceptul Repatriot, care are în vedere repatrierea românilor aflați în străinătate.

Din istoria acestor decenii am selectat evenimentele de turism care au consolidat structura de afaceri a Eurolines.\r\n\r\n\r\nÎn 1995 au intrat pe piață primele două agenţii de turism (Bucureşti şi Frankfurt), primele 3 autocare pentru cursele regulate către şi dinspre Germania; în 2004 a fost achiziționată Nova Travel, prima agenţie de turism din România, înfiinţată în 1990, care acum îndeplineşte funcţia de tour-operator al Grupului, pentru outgoing; în 2011 a fost semnat parteneriatul strategic cu Grupul TUI şi achiziţia Danubius Travel din Constanţa, unul dintre cei mai importanţi tour-operatori din ţară pentru incoming, înfiinţată în 1991. 2015 se conturează de asemenea ca foarte important pentru lansarea unei noi linii de business a Grupului - pe segmentul industriei ospitalității prin achiziționarea complexului Green Village din Sfântu Gheorghe, din Delta Dunării.\r\n\r\n\r\nȘi cu CIPRIAN, 5\r\nCine se află în spatele acestui succes ? Oamenii care l-au construit. Cristian Băciucu, Directorul General Rombus Transport a devenit partenerul lui Dragoș Anastasiu din 1995, când s-a alăturat nou înfiinţatei companii Touring Europabus România. El este ”pilonul” la transporturi ocupând încă de atunci funcția de Director. Din 2006, odată cu separarea activităţilor şi restructurarea Grupului, Cristian a preluat postul de Director General al Rombus, companie care se ocupă de transportul de persoane sub brandul Eurolines. În fiecare an, cu autocarele Rombus călătoresc aproximativ 130. 000 de pasageri, care ating 100 destinații. Atunci când are timp liber, pasiunile nu-l ocolesc. E fan raliuri, schi, călătorii inedite.\r\nȘi Miki Lech, liderul Agenției NOVA Travel e pasionat de călătorii. Vorbește 5 limbi străine, și a abandonat o carieră promițătoare de inginer în favoarea turismului. Tot ce se mișcă în Grup în materie de travel poartă amprenta sa. A absolvit 2 școli de turism în Grecia și Austria iar experiența sa a fost decantată de 30 de ani de turism în care a organizat numeroase evenimente speciale. Printre ele și primul concert al lui Michael Jackson la Bucureşti.\r\nCosmin Marinof a intrat în business-ul Eurolines în urmă cu 9 ani. Dacă vrei să afli cum s-a construit rețeaua de vânzări a produselor din grup el poate demonta până la ultimul ”șurub” sistemul care stă la baza managementului de vânzări. Azi este Director Naţional de Vânzări și se ocupă de coordonarea întregii activităţi a reţelei TUI TravelCenter la nivel naţional. El a oferit expertiza și logistica pentru creșterea numărului de agenţii cu regim full-service (78 de birouri în prezent).\r\n\r\n\r\nCel mai nou venit în poveste este Ciprian Popescu, directorul Danubius Travel. Un brașovean absorbit de Litoral unde și-a înființat agenția în 1991 și unde 12 ani mai târziu fuziona cu grupul TUI ce devenea acționarul principal al companiei.\r\n\r\nÎn urmă cu 4 ani, tranzacțiile ”smart” au culminat cu preluarea de către Grupul Eurolines România a pachetului majoritar de acţiuni. Ciprian Popescu a dezvoltat paleta activităţilor Danubius Travel, incluzând şi distribuţia de hotelărie, prin preluarea reprezentanţei HotelBeds în România. El continuă să dezvolte în cadrul Grupului componentele de incoming. Și e un optimist incurabil: crede că România va redeveni o destinație vânată de turiștii străini.\r\n\r\nDRAGOȘ - El lider maximo\r\nÎn fine intră în scenă El lider maximo. Dragoş Anastasiu, e fondatorul Grupului Eurolines România, pornit în 1995 cu compania Touring Europabus România. După numai doi ani, aceasta devenea membră a celei mai importante reţele de transport internaţional de persoane: Eurolines. Pentru cei care nu știu Dragoș e medic de profesie și german prin adopție. În afara graniţelor ţării, a dezvoltat afaceri în Germania şi în Republica Moldova.\r\nCe crede azi despre business-ul pe care l-a construit? ”În urmă cu 20 de ani Eurolines însemna numai transporturi și nimeni nu ne întreba despre alte planuri. Azi, surprinzător, mass media și partenerii ne întreabă numai de turism. Este o schimbare uriașă de percepție și asta mă face să cred că că am lucrat serios și am crescut consistent în valoare. România mi-a oferit oportunități de crestere extraordinare, ca piață în formare, comparativ să spunem cu Germania, unde lucrurile sunt așezate de mult, și nu prea mai e loc să dai din umeri. Am realizat în țara noastră ce nu aș fi realizat nicăieri în altă parte. Ce mă bucură este că românii au început să acorde din ce în ce mai multă atenție detaliilor și caută cât mai multe informații. Ei se inspiră de pe Internet dar își cumpără vacanțele din agențiile de turism. Dincolo de cifre azi suntem preocupați de promovarea calității. Calitatea costă și asta trebuie învățat rapid. În această linie ne-am propuns să susținem și promovăm Robelo, un site cu recomandări ce va promova cele mai bune locații românești. Pe plan social vom continua să derulăm conceptul Repatriot, care are în vedere repatrierea românilor aflați în străinătate. În altă ordine de idei îmi plac proiectele noi și cred în noile generații de tineri, pe care îi ajutăm activ, implicându-ne în diferite programe de stimulare a antreprenoriatului în rândul lor”.\r\n\r\nOcolul Pământului de 4.000 de ori\r\nDar Grupul Eurolines se sprijină pe devotamentul a circa 700 de angajați.

Altfel nu se poate explica cum pot fi vehiculate în spațiul cotidian cifre aiuristice cu pretenții de statistici locale. Cică în câteva weekend-uri din august au fost înregistrate pe litoral recorduri fabuloase. La un sfârșit de săptămână plajele ar fi fost asediate de vreo 250.000 de turiști, iar peste încă o săptămână s-ar fi ajuns chiar la 350.000 de turiști. Ori au fost numărați de mai multe ori cifrele s-au dilatat, și asta e posibil tot din cauza caniculei. Ori pur și simplu mai bine din jumătatea acestora au plecat sâmbătă de dimineață pe Litoral și s-au întors seara acasă. Iar duminică au luat-o de la capăt. Oricum ar sta lucrurile în toate stațiunile noastre de la Marea Neagră, cu toate cazările posibile (hotel, pensiune, apartamente, bugalouri, rulote, corturi, la negru ori gri) este greu de crezut că pot intra între 250 și 350.000 de turiști într-o zi, două. Pentru că litoralul nostru deține puțin peste... 83.000 de locuri de cazare și, cu tot cu Constanța, vreo 93.000. Dar să mai apelăm tot la cifrele INS care dezarmează manipulările mass-media în întregime: întreaga capacitate turistică a României depășește cu puțin... 280.000 de locuri de cazare. Deci, lăsați fraților tromboanele de marketing și promovare că, prin ajustare pozitivă, fac mai mult rău decât bine turismului estival. Vă imaginați ce s-ar întâmpla dacă organele abilitate de control, însoțite de DNA, ar căuta banii nefiscalizați ce ar fi fost încasați de pe urma celor 250-350.000 de turiști?!? Nici nu îndrăznim să ne gândim.\r\n\r\n\r\nO altă jucărie de imagine și PR a fost răsucită pe toate părțile de mai marii experți ai turismului. Unii dintre ei oameni de afaceri remarcabili. Ți-e și greu să înțelegi cum acceptă să cadă în asemenea capcane. După ce au mestecat niște declarații făcute de premierul Victor Ponta s-au ofuscat și l-au capsat pe acest cum că și-a permis să declare cu aroganță (stilul Adrian Năstase, refuză să moară pentru că dă bine la TV) cum că... prețurile din Miami sunt mai mici decât în stațiunea Mamaia. Nu-i iau apărarea, că n-are nevoie de ea. În realitate el declara ”Unde am mers eu în vacanță e mai ieftin decât la Mamaia.” Iar premierul Ponta a fost cu familia într-o croazieră cu plecare din portul orașului Miami. Ceea ce e cu totul altceva. Iar croaziera - și zeci de mii de români care au fost pe aceste hoteluri plutitoare știu asta -, cu servicii full all-inclusive, cu facilități pentru copii, cu oferte de entertainment incluse, a fost cu siguranță mai ieftină decât o vacanță similară de 7 zile la un hotel de 5 stele, chit că la Mamaia sunt vreo 4. Oricum e aiurea să compari prețul unei croaziere cu o vacanță terestră, fie ea și la Mamaia. E ca și cum ai compara pere cu ananas, prune cu banane și prostia cu nucile de cocos. E drept toate se coc, dar numai una doare toată viața. Probabil, tot canicula a fost de vină.','Canicula, aroganta si prostii, EDITORIAL nr.137','','inherit','open','open','','4104-revision-v1','','','2015-12-07 19:37:05','2015-12-07 17:37:05','',4104,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2015/12/07/4104-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4166,1,'2016-01-10 19:53:08','2016-01-10 17:53:08','În piața turistică domnește de câțiva ani buni un set de confuzii care, probabil, sunt alimentate nu atât de rutina ori suficiența instaurată în industrie ci mai ales de instabilitatea economică, socială ori de... emigrarea ideilor.

Ea poartă amprenta artistică a fotografului Eduard Guțescu. Expoziţia \"Călător în Ţara Bârsei\" a propus vizitatorilor descoperirea frumuseţilor inedite oferite de această regiune etnografică, dar şi tradiţiile pe care oamenii locurilor încă le păstrează. Vernisajul a fost ”onorat” de ansamblul folcloric ”Zestrea Branului” dar și de cozonacii şi ruladele produse după reţete vechi la Pensiunea ”Mama Cozonacilor”.
\r\nMUZEU PENTRU NEXT GENERATION
\r\nUn muzeu de ultimă generație, unic în România, va fi finalizat tehnic în toamna acestui an. Deschiderea lui este preconizată la finele lui 2015. Amplasat la ieșirea din Zărnești spre Plaiul Foii, Muzeul va conține secțiuni interactive printre care cele cu holograme spectaculoase, proiecții 3D, secțiunea de diorame, o peșteră în miniatură, dar și o stână artificială ce vor putea fi vizitate în interior. În clădire va exista o rampă ce va face conexiunea dintre parter și etaj. Va fi o machetă a Pietrei Craiului și o pasarelă pe care turiștii vor putea urca pentru a o admira de sus ca și cum ar fi pe munte. De asemenea pe pasarelă vor fi proiectate imagini din Piatra Craiului, informații geologice și despre habitat, dar și traseele turistice. Investiția totală se ridică la 7,7 milioane de lei, dintre care 6,37 milioane provin din fonduri europeni.

\r\n\r\nDe la SADOVEANU până la ZAHARESCU
\r\nAflaţi că Hanul Ancuţei este acel loc care l-a găzduit de mai multe ori pe Sadoveanu. Potrivit unor documente, hanul ar data încă din 1718, ceea ce înseamnă că peste 3 ani el va aniversa 300 de ani de existență. Clădirea a fost dărâmată de către proprietar în 1943. Autoritățile vremii au dispus, între 1957-1960, reconstrucţia hanului după planurile existente la Arhivele Statului din Iaşi. Pe locul vechiului han a fost ridicată o nouă clădire. Ea respecta linia tradiţională şi de arhitectură specifică secolului al XVIII-lea şi care a căpătat aceeaşi destinaţie de han, tocmai pentru conservarea spiritului... sadoveniano - moldovenesc. În 1998, clădirea, care ameninţa iar să intre în uitare, a fost preluată de antreprenoarea Nuşa Chiriac, care a investit mult în restaurarea sa. Astfel, după lucrări de refacere, Hanul Ancuţei a căpătat în 1999 o înfăţişare autentic românească. Au fost amenajate aici mini expoziţii de costume populare specifice zonei, cu obiecte din ceramică sau din lemn. În partea dreaptă a intrării, chiar lângă uşă, a fost amplasată o placă de marmură pe care scrie următorul text: „Pe locul vechiului han ce s-a ridicat în anul 1718 şi risipit cu ani în urmă s-a clădit, cinstindu-se slova românească a marelui Sadoveanu, noua construcţie.

\r\n\r\n\r\nConform unor recente sondaje ale lui IPK International și declarațiilor doamnei Petra Hedorfer, președinta Consiliului de administrație al DZT, pentru incoming-ul Germaniei, importanța acestei zone-sursă este în continuă creștere.\r\n![\"germania](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/germania-Stutt-007.jpg\")
\r\n\r\n\r\nAstfel, s-a atins din 2013 spre 2014 un plus de 4,6 procente – de la circa 1,8 la aproape 2 milioane de călătorii. „Cu acest volum, regiunea și-a câștigat un loc important printre piețele cu potențial. Poziționarea puternică a Destinației de Vacanță în această zonă, confirmă angajamentul nostru strategic. Vedem în continuare un mare potențial în această regiune, care poate fi exploatat de activități de marketing orientate spre client: bazat pe previziunile actuale, ne așteptăm până în 2020 la o creștere medie anuală de 3%“ - a subliniat Hedorfer.\r\n![\"germania](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/germania-Stutt-056.jpg\")

Ea se situează astfel înaintea țărilor învecinate cum ar fi Grecia sau Turcia (fiecare 11%), Italia (9%) și Ungaria (7%).

Populația este mult mai dinamică iar cea mai populară conexiune este către Țările Scandinave. 24% din totalul pasagerilor români zboară mai departe și utilizează Berlinul ca o escală către Copenhaga, Oslo, Göteburg, Stuttgart și Düsseldorf. Acestea sunt cele top 5 destinații pentru români. Comparativ cu 2013 airberlin a primit la bord cu 16,3% mai mulți pasageri pe ruta Berlin-Tegel – București și retur. „România este o piață dinamică pentru airberlin.

\r\nDacă în ultimii ani s-a mers foarte mult pe inovație iată că și Germania s-a gândit să facă o pauză de ”alimentare” a campaniei internaționale de promovare turistică. Tema principală de 2015 o reprezintă „Tradiții și obiceiuri“, ce include trei segmente: „Germania culinară“, „Tradiții care se trăiesc în continuare“ precum și „Artă și meșteșug“. „Aspectul‚ tradiția și istoria regiunii fac parte conform monitorului de calitate al DZT din Top 10 pentru alegerea locului de petrecere a concediului în cazul străinilor care vizitează Germania. Cu această campanie punem accentul pe segmentul tradițional al turismului în orașe, care atrage o parte semnificativă a turiștilor străini. Peste 22% dintre turiștii care sosesc în Germania se îndreaptă spre atracțiile turistice din mediul rural” - mai a adăugat Cristian Sallai, directorul Oficiului de Turism al Germaniei la Belgrad, care se ocupă cu promovarea inclusiv în România. Campania va impulsiona vizitatorii străini să savureze specialitățile locale variate, să descopere petreceri tradiționale și obiceiuri locale în regiunea germană și în diferitele orașe, cum ar fi de exemplu Oktoberfest-ul de la München și carnavalul din Köln etc. \r\nCâteva TRAVEL TIPS ale DZT
\r\nOrganizația Germană pentru Turism a a scos la produs în acest an câteva zăcăminte de istorie. L-a făcut pe comandantul Germanicus Superstar și astfel a creat un eveniment de rezonanță - 2000 de ani de la bătălia din pădurea Teutonburg.

El urma să se ocupe de dezvoltarea promovării în scopul atragerii de cât mai mulți turiști din regiunea formată de Bosnia- Herțegovina, Bulgaria, Croația, Muntenegru, România și Serbia. \r\n\r\nConform unor recente sondaje ale lui IPK International și declarațiilor doamnei Petra Hedorfer, președinta Consiliului de administrație al DZT, pentru incoming-ul Germaniei, importanța acestei zone-sursă este în continuă creștere.\r\n\r\nAstfel, s-a atins din 2013 spre 2014 un plus de 4,6 procente – de la circa 1,8 la aproape 2 milioane de călătorii. „Cu acest volum, regiunea și-a câștigat un loc important printre piețele cu potențial. Poziționarea puternică a Destinației de Vacanță în această zonă, confirmă angajamentul nostru strategic. Vedem în continuare un mare potențial în această regiune, care poate fi exploatat de activități de marketing orientate spre client: bazat pe previziunile actuale, ne așteptăm până în 2020 la o creștere medie anuală de 3%“ - a subliniat Hedorfer.\r\n\r\nCu aproape două milioane de călătorii și o cotă de piață de 14 procente, Germania este deja una din cele mai îndrăgite destinații de vacanță în străinătate din țările din regiunea Balcanilor. Ea se situează astfel înaintea țărilor învecinate cum ar fi Grecia sau Turcia (fiecare 11%), Italia (9%) și Ungaria (7%). Croația, cea mai mare piață sursă din regiune, a furnizat pe piața germană în 2014, 672,000 de excursii, însumând o cotă de piață de 27%. \r\n\r\nA DOUA DESTINAȚIE PREFERATĂ DE ROMÂNI\r\n\r\nȘi numărul românilor ce călătoresc în Germania este în continuă creștere, iar previziunile se mențin și pentru 2015 la 4%. Germania este a doua destinație externă preferată de români iar în 2014 aceștia au generat 728,731 de înnoptări, în creștere cu 14,2% față de anul anterior. În medie călătoriile românilor au o durată de 18 zile iar cheltuielile sunt de 637 de euro per călătorie. 43% dintre românii sosesc în Germania pentru vacanțe iar 27% în interes de afaceri. Majoritatea călătoresc cu mașina (55%), 26% cu avionul, 14% cu autocarele. Cele mai populare destinatii frecventate de turiștii români sunt Bavaria, Baden-Württemberg, Hessen, Nordrhein-Westfalen și Berlin.\r\nAIRBERLIN ȘI TOP 5 DESTINAȚII DE CONEXIUNE
\r\nCu aproape 74.000 de pasageri înregistrați în 2014, airberlin confirmă că România este în ascensiune în ceea ce privește cheltuielile pentru vacanțe. Populația este mult mai dinamică iar cea mai populară conexiune este către Țările Scandinave. 24% din totalul pasagerilor români zboară mai departe și utilizează Berlinul ca o escală către Copenhaga, Oslo, Göteburg, Stuttgart și Düsseldorf. Acestea sunt cele top 5 destinații pentru români. Comparativ cu 2013 airberlin a primit la bord cu 16,3% mai mulți pasageri pe ruta Berlin-Tegel – București și retur. „România este o piață dinamică pentru airberlin. Se întrevede un potențial ridicat“ - ne-a precizat Dimitar Dimitrov, Manager regional al airberlin pentru România. \r\n2015 - FOCUS PE ”TRADIȚII ȘI OBICEIURI”
\r\nDacă în ultimii ani s-a mers foarte mult pe inovație iată că și Germania s-a gândit să facă o pauză de ”alimentare” a campaniei internaționale de promovare turistică. Tema principală de 2015 o reprezintă „Tradiții și obiceiuri“, ce include trei segmente: „Germania culinară“, „Tradiții care se trăiesc în continuare“ precum și „Artă și meșteșug“. „Aspectul‚ tradiția și istoria regiunii fac parte conform monitorului de calitate al DZT din Top 10 pentru alegerea locului de petrecere a concediului în cazul străinilor care vizitează Germania. Cu această campanie punem accentul pe segmentul tradițional al turismului în orașe, care atrage o parte semnificativă a turiștilor străini. Peste 22% dintre turiștii care sosesc în Germania se îndreaptă spre atracțiile turistice din mediul rural” - mai a adăugat Cristian Sallai, directorul Oficiului de Turism al Germaniei la Belgrad, care se ocupă cu promovarea inclusiv în România. Campania va impulsiona vizitatorii străini să savureze specialitățile locale variate, să descopere petreceri tradiționale și obiceiuri locale în regiunea germană și în diferitele orașe, cum ar fi de exemplu Oktoberfest-ul de la München și carnavalul din Köln etc. \r\nCâteva TRAVEL TIPS ale DZT
\r\nOrganizația Germană pentru Turism a a scos la produs în acest an câteva zăcăminte de istorie. L-a făcut pe comandantul Germanicus Superstar și astfel a creat un eveniment de rezonanță - 2000 de ani de la bătălia din pădurea Teutonburg. Acest eveniment, petrecut în actuala Saxonie inferioară e consolidat de Muzeul și parcul Kalkriese din landul Osnabruck dar și de teatrul ce activează în regiune. Fosta mănăstire cisterciană Chorin, din Barnimer Land, este și ea promovată în agenda culturală a turismului. În plus mănăstirea se află într-o Rezervație a biosferei, obiectiv protejat UNESCO. Berlinul este promovat ca metropolă a evenimentelor sportive, Bremen-ul pentru experiențele inedite ce amintesc de un vechi centru industrial, regiunea Ruhr pentru Festivalul ExtraSchicht, care promovează cultura industrială iar pentru gurmanzi și iubitorii de natură este promovată zona Schleswig-Holstein.

Prima parte a fost acoperită de cursuri de profil la Academia de Studii Economice din Bratislava. Turismul în Europa centrală, marketing în turism, brandul turistic au fost câteva dintre subiectele abordate. După care s-au derulat vizite de documentare în câteva dintre cele mai importante atracţii turistice din Bratislava şi din împrejurimi. Deşi este una dintre cele mai tinere capitale europene, media de vârstă a locuitorilor fiind de doar 36 de ani, istoria aşezării e mai veche de 2.000 de ani. Faptul că este situată la doar 78 de kilometri de Viena, un magnet pentru turişti din toată lumea, constituie un avantaj. Dezavantajul este că mulţi turişti îşi alocă prea puţine zile pentru a cunoaşte capitala Slovaciei şi împrejurimile ei. În primul rând veţi fi atraşi de intimitatea oraşului relativ mic, plin de viaţă şi de cultură în ciuda dimensiunilor sale. Unul dintre cele mai atractive locuri din oraş este cu siguranţă Stare mesto (Centrul vechi), pe ale cărui străzi înguste vă puteţi plimba ore în şir, admirând monumente istorice impresionante. Cele mai vizitate dintre acestea sunt Castelul Bratislava, Catedrala Sf. Martin, Palatul Arhiepiscopului Primat, Poarta Sf. Mihail, vechea primărie etc.
\r\nBRATISLAVA - O TURĂ PRINTRE OGLINZI
\r\nCentrul oraşului Bratislava este plin de locuri minunate, nenumărate cafenele şi restaurante excelente. Iubitorii de artă modernă se vor simţiţi cu adevărat răsfăţaţi în Bratislava. În data de 9 septembrie, 2000, la mai puţin de 15 kilometri de centrul oraşului, pe marginea unei peninsule, s-a deschis unul dintre cele mai tinere muzee de artă modernă din Europa - Danubiana. Numele muzeului este inspirat de cel al fluviului, care se poate admira prin pereţii de sticlă ai clădirii. Entuziasmul, dar şi iniţiativa proprietarului de galerie dr. Vincent Polakovič, combinate cu fondurile puse la dispoziţie de colecţionarul şi olandez Gerard H. Meulensteen, au pus bazele acestui muzeu inedit. La parter, există o galerie de artă contemporană, cu exponate de vânzare, un loc pentru expoziţii mai mici, un centru audio-vizual şi o sală de lectură. O vizită la muzeul Danubiana ar trebui combinată cu una la Palatul Arhiepiscopului Primat, construit în stil neoclasic, în Oraşul Vechi. Cea mai faimoasă cameră a sa, Sala Oglinzilor, a fost creata prin conectarea mai multor camere cu oglinzi şi covoare din Damasc. Aici veţi găsi o mare parte din colecţia de artă a oraşului, portrete ale monarhilor habsburgici şi o serie de şase tapiserii englezeşti, din secolul al XVII-lea, care descriu legenda iubirii tragice dintre Hero şi Leander. La confluenţa Dunării cu râul Morava, veţi găsi ruinele unui castel ridicat în secolul al IX-lea. Este unul dintre cele mai importante obiective ale Bratislavei. Stânca înaltă de 212 metri a fost considerată la vremea respectivă locul perfect pentru construirea fortăreţei. Tot aici a fost înfiinţată şi prima biserică creştină din regiunea Slovaciei. Castelul Devin nu a fost cucerit niciodată. Este deschis pe toată perioada verii, veţi beneficia de ghidaj în limba engleză.
\r\nALBASTRU CIUDAT, ALBASTRU UNIC
\r\nNu ratați Podul Nou (Novy Most), cunoscut prin turnul care oferă una dintre cele mai frumoase privelişti asupra oraşului. În vârful acestuia se află un restaurant, în forma unei farfurii zburătoare, unde puteţi servi masa, admirând oraşul de la înălţime. Traversându-l, ajungeţi în Centrul Vechi, unde veţi găsi Vechea Primărie. Aceasta este un complex de clădiri din secolul al XIV-lea. În perioada 1370 – 1850, unele camere au fost temniţe. Unele instrumente de tortură, devenite acum exponate, amintesc despre suferinţele deţinuţilor. În apropiere, vă va atrage atenţia Biserica Sf. Elisabeta a Ungariei, căreia toată lumea îi spune Biserica Albastră. Este inclusă în lista obiectivelor turistice obligatoriu de văzut. Interiorul şi exteriorul sunt vopsite numai în nuanţe de albastru. Impresionantă e și catedrala gotică Sf. Martin. A fost locul locul de încoronare a 11 regi şi 8 regine între anii 1563 şi 1830. Interiorul are o lungime de 70 de metri iar Turnul are o înălțime de 85 de metri. Dar cel mai vizitat monument este cu siguranță Castelul Bratislava. Un adevărat brand al oraşului, pe care-l veţi vedea pe aproape toate cărţile poştale sau albumele despre Bratislava. Castelul datează din jurul anilor 500 - 600 î. Hr. Clădirile au elemente arhitecturale gotice, renascentiste şi ale stilului baroc. Aici puteţi vizita sala trezoreriei, sala cavalerilor, o expoziţie permanentă şi galeria castelului. Monumentul este situat pe o colină, deasupra vechiului oraş.

\r\nBratislava Bieke Point este întotdeauna punctul de plecare al bicicliştilor. Aceştia se bucură aici de toate serviciile de care au nevoie: informaţii despre rutele de ciclism, cazare în Bratislava, tururi ghidate, închirieri de biciclete etc. Plecând de aici, vă puteţi îndrepta spre graniţa cu Austria, Ungaria şi Slovacia, alegând pe loc ce ţară doriţi să vizitaţi. Bratislava Bike Point se află la intersecţia a două rute internaţionale de ciclism EUROVELO 6 şi EUROVELO 13. Vă pasionează maşinile de curse? Atunci fuga spre Slovakia Ring. Aici veţi avea ocazia să fiţi copilot, să vă testaţi abilităţile de conducere sau să asistaţi la binecunoscute competiţii anuale: FIA WTCC, FIA GT Series, ADAC GT Masters, Grand Prix Slovakia şi Campionatul Alpe Adria. Pistele sunt omologate de Federaţia Internaţională de Automobilism, iar complexul dispune inclusive de un hotel, restaurant şi baruri. Unic în Slovacia, el poartă semnătura arhitectului austriac Hand Roth, autor al unor proiecte similare în Austria şi Ungaria. Și cei îndrăgostiți de hipism își pot satisface pasiunea la Centrul Šamorín aflat la circa 30 de kilometri de Bratislava. Aici omul de afaceri Mario Hoffman a creat - pe circa 40 de hectare, în urma unei investiții de peste 100 de milioane de euro -, cel mai mare centru ecvestru din Europa centrală.
\r\nFOTOGRAFII DIN ORAȘUL DE ARGINT
\r\nLa 172 de km de Bratislava se află Banská Štiavnica. Despre el se spune că este cel mai frumos oraş din Slovacia. Loc de pelerinaj romantic el este aşezat chiar în centrul unui vulcan de mult stins. Dacă la suprafaţă clădirile medievale cuceresc turiştii, în subteran, galeriile lungi de kilometri întregi îi cuceresc pe toţi. Istoria oraşului e fascinantă. Era un Eldorado al Europei, cel mai mare depozit de aur şi de argint, şi era cunoscut înainte sub numele de „Oraşul de argint”. Comorile de aici au finanţat palatele construite în Viena şi Budapesta. Școlile de ştiinţă erau recunoscute peste tot. Și tot aici, pentru prima dată în istoria omenirii, s-a folosit praful de puşcă pentru dislocarea rocilor. În prezent, oraşul de buzunar atrage vizitatorii prin arhitectura originală splendidă, biserici şi palate ale burgheziei bogate şi case de mineri modeste, împrăştiate pe dealurile abrupte din împrejurimi. Este locul ideal pentru fotografi, întrucât locul pare încremenit în timp. Nu există semafoare, panouri publicitare care să sufoce vederea, iar tradiţiile au rămas vii. Oraşul e pe lista patrimoniului mondial UNESCO. De-a lungul străzilor se pot întâlni pictori, iar oferta concertelor care au loc în cafenele stilate este deosebit de bogată. Destinația vă oferă și acest aforism: Oamenii se împart în două categorii: cei care iubesc Štiavnica şi cei care n-au ajuns încă acolo.

\r\n\r\n\r\nAzi contează mai puțin de ce au plecat în ultima jumătate a secolului trecut. Cel mai mult interesează motivele pentru care germanii s-ar reîntoarce, măcar pentru câteva săptămâni de concediu pe an, în locurile unde s-au născut ei, părinții, bunicii și copiii lor. Nu întâmplător recenta ediție, a treia, a Festivalului Haferland a avut ca tematică educația, iar sloganul evenimentului “Istoria ne învață!”. Manifestarea a avut ca ”epicentru cultural” satul Criț din județul Brașov. Haferland (Țara Ovăzului) include satele săsești din zona cuprinsă între Rupea și Sighișoara, astfel că turiștii au avut șansa de a vizita localitățile Fișer, Saschiz, Viscri, Criț, Meșendorf și Roadeș. Inițiatorii evenimentului au fost Fundația Michael Schmidt împreună cu Fundația Tabaluga. Înființată în 2010 Fundația Schmidt și-a propus să devină vârful de lance al conservării patrimoniul cultural săsesc, să contribuie la promovarea limbii germane în România. Și un interlocutor nonguvernamental important al statului german în domeniul creării de evenimente. Dintre acestea Festivalul Haferland este cel mai important. Numai în ultima zi manifestările (concursurile de biciclete, reuniuni culturale și artistice, slujba religioasă din biserica fortificată, concertele de orgă și chitară rece, expoziția dedicată Anului Școlii, Balul Tradițional Săsesc etc.), au atras circa 1500 de turiști.\r\n![\"Crit](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Crit-dansatori3.jpg\")

\r\n\r\n\r\nCe ne-a reținut atenția din agenda culturală a manifestării! Fabuloasa prezență a Fanfarei din Țara Bârsei care a secondat și recitalurile instrumentale ale unor artiști transilvani. Evoluțiile la orga bisericii Evanghelice Fortificate din Criț ale artiștilor Klaus Untch și Steffen Schlandt însoțit de grupul Quartetto Brassovia. Special s-a dovedit recitalul de chitară din interiorul aceleiași biserici (felicitări creatorilor de inedit și magie culturală) al Duo Kitharsis (Alexandra Petrişor & Dragoş Horghidan). O subliniere, pentru readucere aminte a bogăției tradițiilor folclorice ale sașilor, pentru Ansamblul de dans Korona, format din tineri frumoși și pasionați, care au încins atmosfera și la Balul Săsesc de închidere. \r\nPLEDOARIE PENTRU TRADIȚII\r\n![\"Crit](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Crit-Scoala.jpg\")
\r\n
Mai puțin spectaculoase, dar pline de substanță și realism, s-au dovedit alocuțiunile unor personalități invitate să susțină Festivalul Haferland. Ministrul Educației Naționale Sorin Cîmpeanu, a subliniat că reducerea numărului de etnici germani din România din ultimii ani înseamnă și \"scăderea aportului comunității săsești în ceea ce înseamnă diversitatea culturală a țării noastre. La nivel național, potrivit statisticilor oficiale, în grădiniţele şi şcolile din România sunt înscrişi 23.156 copii care învaţă în limba germană, însă numărul profesorilor care pot preda discipline în această limbă este insuficient. De aceea salut implicarea statului german în subvenționarea materială a profesorilor care predau limba germană în România, etnici germani sau nu. Contează prea puțin această nuanță. Contează azi că în țara noastră se crează un spirit al solidarității care poate fi reconstruită prin tradiții, relații și spirit comunitar. De aceea salut și implicarea masivă a organizațiilor și asociațiilor în această direcție”. La rândul său Deputatul Bernd Fabrițius, primul sas din Transilvania ales în Bundestag, și-a manifestat dorința ca ecumenismul să fie prezent tot mai mult în România, apreciind ca fiind un exemplu pozitiv slujba oficiată în biserica fortificată din Criț, de către episcopul Bisericii Evanghelice C.A. din România, Reinhardt Guib.\r\n![\"Crit](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Crit-Cetate5.jpg\")

\r\nPrintre participanții la \"Săptămâna Haferland\" s-au mai numărat Paul Porr, președintele Forumului Democrat al Germanilor din România, E.S. Werner Hans Lauk ambasadorul Republicii Federale Germania la București etc. Aceștia au apreciat politica pozitivă față de minorități în România și și implicarea activă a statului în susținerea învățământului în limba maternă a minorităților etnice. Un alt aspect pozitiv - prin organizarea de evenimente și manifestări artistice numărul turiștilor care vizitează satele săsești crește de la an la an, cu aproximativ 25%, însă obiectivul organizatorilor festivalului este ca aceștia să ajungă nu doar într-unul, ci în cât mai multe dintre satele din această zonă. La rândul său Michael Schmidt a vorbit și despre alte proiecte susținute de fundația pe care o conduce. ”Pentru a-i sprijini pe cei care vor să devină dascăli pentru clasele cu predare în limba germană, Fundația Michael Schmidt a acordat, începând din 2013 burse de studiu prin care a fost suportată taxa universitară pentru un număr de 17 studenţi. Fondurile strânse, în timpul festivalului, prin sponsorizări și donații, vor fi redirecționate către noi burse de studiu si către alte proiecte dedicate învățământului în limba germană. Un alt demers al Fundației este furnizarea de materiale didactice în limba germană către toate clasele pregătitoare, cu predare în limba germană, din întregul județ Sibiu, urmând ca din toamnă acest proiect să fie extins și în zona de nord a țării, în județele Satu-Mare, Baia Mare și Sălaj”. Printre proiectele implementate de fundație se numără: restaurarea Orgii Bisericii din Criț, producția filmului “Orgile din Transilvania, o întoarcere în timp”, ajutorarea victimelor inundațiilor în anul 2010 în județul Botoșani, precum și susținerea unor proiecte inițiate de alte organizații, cum sunt: Fundația Peter Maffay - inaugurarea centrului destinat copiilor provenind din familii cu probleme de la Roadeș, Premiul Cultural Săsesc și sprijinirea unor manifestări artistice precum proiectele „Clasic e fantastic” sau „Musica Coronensis”.

Conform raportului Eurostat 2013, care monitorizează structurile din UE-28, Europa deține aproape 562.000 de unități de cazare turistică. Împreună, acestea au asigurat peste 30 de milioane de locuri de cazare (paturi). În aceeași perioadă de referință s-au consumat peste 2.641.000 de milioane de nopți de cazare. Aproape o treime (32,3 %) dintre locurile de cazare din UE-28 s-au concentrat în doar două dintre statele membre ale UE și anume, Franța (5 milioane de locuri de cazare) și Italia (4,7 milioane), urmate de Germania, Regatul Unit (date pentru 2012) și Spania. În ceea ce privește numărul capacităților de cazare (referința e tot la 2013) Italia domină în Top 6 european cu 157.521 de unități, fiind urmată de Marea Britanie (86.597), Croația (62.026), Germania (51.957), Spania (46.488), respectiv Franța (28.246). \r\nCĂLĂTORIM, dar de unde ne informăm
\r\nCând pleci într-o vacanță, te documentezi. După ce ți-ai făcut o imagine iei decizia care ți se pare cea mai convenabilă sub aspectul preț-calitate. De unde se inspiră turiștii? Un răspuns oferă în fiecare an studiul Eurobarometru ”Preferințele turistice ale europenilor”. Firește piața de referință este tot UE-28. Vom încerca să comprimăm datele astfel: 2014 versus 2013, iar pentru România 2014. 56% (în ambii ani) dintre respondenții internaționali au declarat că își aleg destinațiile după recomandările prietenilor și colegilor. În România 48%. 46% (în ambii ani) și-au cules informațiile de pe website-uri pe Internet. În România 23%. Experiențele personale contează foarte mult în selecția pachetelor de vacanță (33 și 34%), respectiv 27%. Și consultanța agențiilor de turism ori a birourilor de turism se dovedește a avea o pondere semnificativă 19 și 21%, iar la noi 15%. Deși se acreditează ideea că suporturile print și media contează din ce în ce mai puțin pe piața promovării și informării studiul Eurobarometru consemnează că turiștii se informează din cataloage și broșuri într-un procent de 11% (în ambii ani), respectiv 4%, ghiduri plătite și reviste 7 și 8%, respectiv 5%, din ziare și de la radio/TV 8 și 9%, iar în România 9%. Paradoxal segmentul Social media și siteurile aferente, deseori supradimensionate în evaluări, ocupă în bugetul de informare turistică al europenilor 7 și 5% iar în rândul românilor o pondere de 8%.

Ideile au fost expuse în cadrul unei întâlniri cu reprezentanții Camera bilateralã de comerþ Bulgaria-România (BCCBR). Membrii acesteia au prezentat seturi de propuneri pentru îmbunătățirea produsului turistic și a serviciilor comune în regiune. Una dintre cele mai importante s-a referit la posibilitatea de a crea mai multe puncte de contact peste Dunăre între cele două țări. În acest scop va fi elaborat un plan ce prevede construirea de noi poduri în următorii 5-10 ani.
\r\nKOUNTOURA: ”Țin să le mulțumesc tuturor celor care au ales Grecia !”
\r\nMinisterul Economiei, Infrastructurii, Marinei și Turismului a derulat Campania Națională pentru stimularea rezervărilor în Grecia. Aceasta a avut și are ca scop stimularea creșterii rezervărilor și consolidarea turismului din Grecia, a declarat Ministrul Delegat pentru Turism, doamna Elena Kountouras. ”Campania HappeningNow: #GreekSummer a fost concepută în scopul de a sprijini rezervările de tipul last minute și pentru a reda imaginea reală și unică a Greciei - “Acum în Grecia”. Campania a inclus clipuri video, imagini și mesaje atractive despre Grecia. Prin aceasta am invitat călătorii să devină membrii activi și să-și împărtășească experiențele unice din vacanțele în Elada. Țin sã le mulțumesc tuturor ca au ales Grecia în aceste vremuri economice grele prin care trecem. Sunt sigurã cã dupã reîntoarcerea acasã veți fi cei mai buni ambasadori pentru promovarea Greciei.” – a subliniat Kountoura. Inițiativa Ministerului Turismului este pusă în aplicare de EOT (Organizația Naționala de Turism a Greciei), în colaborare cu SETE.
\r\nPATZAICHIN: ”Tulcea ne-a primit cu brațele deschise !”

Pe perioada întregului weekend s-au derulat competiții pentru profesioniști dar și pentru amatorii de sporturi nautice - concursuri de vâslit pe Dunăre, un triatlon internațional și o cupa europeană de triatlon pentru juniori, expoziții, concerte cu muzică live etc. Două zile au fost alocate dezbaterilor cu participare internațională, pe două teme de interes pentru Dunăre și pentru Tulcea: ”Cooperarea pe Dunăre de la Pădurea Neagră la Marea Neagră – Black to Black”, respectiv ”Oportunitățile de reintegrare în societate pe care le au deținuții ce învață o meserie eco – Case noi, șanse noi prin meserii vechi”.
\r\n”Tulcea ne-a primit cu brațele deschise acum 5 ani când am pornit în această aventură comună și sunt din ce în ce mai încrezător că ecoturismul este o soluție de prosperitate pentru acest colț de țară. Îmi doresc ca festivalul să contribuie la creșterea faimei Deltei și a județului Tulcea, locurile mele natale” - a declarat Ivan Patzaichin, inițiatorul Festivalului și a mișcării Rowmania. Multiplu campion mondial și european Ivan Patzaichin este unul dintre cei mai apreciați sportivi români ai tuturor timpurilor.
\r\nBUCUREȘTIUL - Competitiv, Conectat, Eficient
\r\nÎn ultimii 25 de ani Capitala României s-a dezvoltat din punct de vedere turistic, sub așteptările locuitorilor dar și al celor ce-l vizitează. În ciuda potenţialului ridicat de dezvoltare şi a rolului său regional, Bucureștiul se află în fața unor provocări majore economice dar și administrative. De aceea este nevoie de o sensibilizare a opiniei publice și de crearea și organizarea unor evenimente de impact care să creeze prestigiul care-l merită acest oraș modern. Sunt doar o parte din concluziile sintetizate de către Fundaţia CAESAR (Centrul pentru Acces la Expertiza Studenţilor şi Absolvenţilor Români). Ea a organizat la Athénée Palace Hilton, în colaborare cu GEA Strategy & Consulting, Colocviul „Bucureşti – Capitală Europeană”. Desfășurat pe trei secțiuni de lucru el a avut ca teme de dezbatere: Bucureştiul Competitiv, Bucureştiul Conectat și Bucureştiul Eficient. La finalul Colocviului, Fundația CAESAR a sintetizat un Raport public cu 10 soluţii pentru o nouă viziune de dezvoltare a Bucureștiului.

El urma să se ocupe de dezvoltarea promovării în scopul atragerii de cât mai mulți turiști din regiunea formată de Bosnia- Herțegovina, Bulgaria, Croația, Muntenegru, România și Serbia. \r\n\r\nConform unor recente sondaje ale lui IPK International și declarațiilor doamnei Petra Hedorfer, președinta Consiliului de administrație al DZT, pentru incoming-ul Germaniei, importanța acestei zone-sursă este în continuă creștere.\r\n\r\nAstfel, s-a atins din 2013 spre 2014 un plus de 4,6 procente – de la circa 1,8 la aproape 2 milioane de călătorii. „Cu acest volum, regiunea și-a câștigat un loc important printre piețele cu potențial. Poziționarea puternică a Destinației de Vacanță în această zonă, confirmă angajamentul nostru strategic. Vedem în continuare un mare potențial în această regiune, care poate fi exploatat de activități de marketing orientate spre client: bazat pe previziunile actuale, ne așteptăm până în 2020 la o creștere medie anuală de 3%“ - a subliniat Hedorfer.\r\n\r\nCu aproape două milioane de călătorii și o cotă de piață de 14 procente, Germania este deja una din cele mai îndrăgite destinații de vacanță în străinătate din țările din regiunea Balcanilor. Ea se situează astfel înaintea țărilor învecinate cum ar fi Grecia sau Turcia (fiecare 11%), Italia (9%) și Ungaria (7%). Croația, cea mai mare piață sursă din regiune, a furnizat pe piața germană în 2014, 672,000 de excursii, însumând o cotă de piață de 27%.\r\n\r\nA DOUA DESTINAȚIE PREFERATĂ DE ROMÂNI\r\n\r\nȘi numărul românilor ce călătoresc în Germania este în continuă creștere, iar previziunile se mențin și pentru 2015 la 4%. Germania este a doua destinație externă preferată de români iar în 2014 aceștia au generat 728,731 de înnoptări, în creștere cu 14,2% față de anul anterior. În medie călătoriile românilor au o durată de 18 zile iar cheltuielile sunt de 637 de euro per călătorie. 43% dintre românii sosesc în Germania pentru vacanțe iar 27% în interes de afaceri.

Cele mai populare destinatii frecventate de turiștii români sunt Bavaria, Baden-Württemberg, Hessen, Nordrhein-Westfalen și Berlin.\r\nAIRBERLIN ȘI TOP 5 DESTINAȚII DE CONEXIUNE
\r\nCu aproape 74.000 de pasageri înregistrați în 2014, airberlin confirmă că România este în ascensiune în ceea ce privește cheltuielile pentru vacanțe. Populația este mult mai dinamică iar cea mai populară conexiune este către Țările Scandinave. 24% din totalul pasagerilor români zboară mai departe și utilizează Berlinul ca o escală către Copenhaga, Oslo, Göteburg, Stuttgart și Düsseldorf. Acestea sunt cele top 5 destinații pentru români. Comparativ cu 2013 airberlin a primit la bord cu 16,3% mai mulți pasageri pe ruta Berlin-Tegel – București și retur. „România este o piață dinamică pentru airberlin. Se întrevede un potențial ridicat“ - ne-a precizat Dimitar Dimitrov, Manager regional al airberlin pentru România. \r\n2015 - FOCUS PE ”TRADIȚII ȘI OBICEIURI”
\r\nDacă în ultimii ani s-a mers foarte mult pe inovație iată că și Germania s-a gândit să facă o pauză de ”alimentare” a campaniei internaționale de promovare turistică. Tema principală de 2015 o reprezintă „Tradiții și obiceiuri“, ce include trei segmente: „Germania culinară“, „Tradiții care se trăiesc în continuare“ precum și „Artă și meșteșug“. „Aspectul‚ tradiția și istoria regiunii fac parte conform monitorului de calitate al DZT din Top 10 pentru alegerea locului de petrecere a concediului în cazul străinilor care vizitează Germania. Cu această campanie punem accentul pe segmentul tradițional al turismului în orașe, care atrage o parte semnificativă a turiștilor străini. Peste 22% dintre turiștii care sosesc în Germania se îndreaptă spre atracțiile turistice din mediul rural” - mai a adăugat Cristian Sallai, directorul Oficiului de Turism al Germaniei la Belgrad, care se ocupă cu promovarea inclusiv în România. Campania va impulsiona vizitatorii străini să savureze specialitățile locale variate, să descopere petreceri tradiționale și obiceiuri locale în regiunea germană și în diferitele orașe, cum ar fi de exemplu Oktoberfest-ul de la München și carnavalul din Köln etc. \r\nCâteva TRAVEL TIPS ale DZT
\r\nOrganizația Germană pentru Turism a a scos la produs în acest an câteva zăcăminte de istorie. L-a făcut pe comandantul Germanicus Superstar și astfel a creat un eveniment de rezonanță - 2000 de ani de la bătălia din pădurea Teutonburg. Acest eveniment, petrecut în actuala Saxonie inferioară e consolidat de Muzeul și parcul Kalkriese din landul Osnabruck dar și de teatrul ce activează în regiune. Fosta mănăstire cisterciană Chorin, din Barnimer Land, este și ea promovată în agenda culturală a turismului. În plus mănăstirea se află într-o Rezervație a biosferei, obiectiv protejat UNESCO. Berlinul este promovat ca metropolă a evenimentelor sportive, Bremen-ul pentru experiențele inedite ce amintesc de un vechi centru industrial, regiunea Ruhr pentru Festivalul ExtraSchicht, care promovează cultura industrială iar pentru gurmanzi și iubitorii de natură este promovată zona Schleswig-Holstein. Ca să nu vă lăsăm neterminați la ”Festivalul plăcerilor din natură” nu ratați fripturile din carne de zimbru, vită scoțiană sau cotletele de vită Galloways servite, în mod creativ, la o cafea.

Cel mai mult interesează motivele pentru care germanii s-ar reîntoarce, măcar pentru câteva săptămâni de concediu pe an, în locurile unde s-au născut ei, părinții, bunicii și copiii lor. Nu întâmplător recenta ediție, a treia, a Festivalului Haferland a avut ca tematică educația, iar sloganul evenimentului “Istoria ne învață!”. Manifestarea a avut ca ”epicentru cultural” satul Criț din județul Brașov. Haferland (Țara Ovăzului) include satele săsești din zona cuprinsă între Rupea și Sighișoara, astfel că turiștii au avut șansa de a vizita localitățile Fișer, Saschiz, Viscri, Criț, Meșendorf și Roadeș. Inițiatorii evenimentului au fost Fundația Michael Schmidt împreună cu Fundația Tabaluga. Înființată în 2010 Fundația Schmidt și-a propus să devină vârful de lance al conservării patrimoniul cultural săsesc, să contribuie la promovarea limbii germane în România. Și un interlocutor nonguvernamental important al statului german în domeniul creării de evenimente. Dintre acestea Festivalul Haferland este cel mai important. Numai în ultima zi manifestările (concursurile de biciclete, reuniuni culturale și artistice, slujba religioasă din biserica fortificată, concertele de orgă și chitară rece, expoziția dedicată Anului Școlii, Balul Tradițional Săsesc etc.), au atras circa 1500 de turiști. \r\n\r\nORI LA BAL ORI LA CHITARĂ\r\n\r\nCe ne-a reținut atenția din agenda culturală a manifestării! Fabuloasa prezență a Fanfarei din Țara Bârsei care a secondat și recitalurile instrumentale ale unor artiști transilvani. Evoluțiile la orga bisericii Evanghelice Fortificate din Criț ale artiștilor Klaus Untch și Steffen Schlandt însoțit de grupul Quartetto Brassovia. Special s-a dovedit recitalul de chitară din interiorul aceleiași biserici (felicitări creatorilor de inedit și magie culturală) al Duo Kitharsis (Alexandra Petrişor & Dragoş Horghidan). O subliniere, pentru readucere aminte a bogăției tradițiilor folclorice ale sașilor, pentru Ansamblul de dans Korona, format din tineri frumoși și pasionați, care au încins atmosfera și la Balul Săsesc de închidere. \r\nPLEDOARIE PENTRU TRADIȚII
\r\nMai puțin spectaculoase, dar pline de substanță și realism, s-au dovedit alocuțiunile unor personalități invitate să susțină Festivalul Haferland. Ministrul Educației Naționale Sorin Cîmpeanu, a subliniat că reducerea numărului de etnici germani din România din ultimii ani înseamnă și \"scăderea aportului comunității săsești în ceea ce înseamnă diversitatea culturală a țării noastre. La nivel național, potrivit statisticilor oficiale, în grădiniţele şi şcolile din România sunt înscrişi 23.156 copii care învaţă în limba germană, însă numărul profesorilor care pot preda discipline în această limbă este insuficient. De aceea salut implicarea statului german în subvenționarea materială a profesorilor care predau limba germană în România, etnici germani sau nu. Contează prea puțin această nuanță. Contează azi că în țara noastră se crează un spirit al solidarității care poate fi reconstruită prin tradiții, relații și spirit comunitar. De aceea salut și implicarea masivă a organizațiilor și asociațiilor în această direcție”. La rândul său Deputatul Bernd Fabrițius, primul sas din Transilvania ales în Bundestag, și-a manifestat dorința ca ecumenismul să fie prezent tot mai mult în România, apreciind ca fiind un exemplu pozitiv slujba oficiată în biserica fortificată din Criț, de către episcopul Bisericii Evanghelice C.A. din România, Reinhardt Guib. ”Peste un milion de de germani trăiesc în Europa Centrală și de Est. Noi trebuie să ne ocupăm de tradițiile și viața lor, de susținerea memoriei și recuperarea istoriei acestei minorități. Există motive reale de optimism în România. Biserica are un rol important și cu ajutorul ei am convingerea că vom putea recupera istoria, cultura, identitatea. Ne-am propus să ajutăm nu doar la reconstruirea unor biserici, monumente ci și să investim în limba germană, în educație. Budestag a sprijinit cu indemnizații de circa 700.000 de euro activitatea a 722 de profesori ce predau limba germană. Cele două consulate de la Brașov și Timișoara fac o muncă bună pentru dezvoltarea și susținerea acestor proiecte”.
\r\nCLASIC E FANTASTIC
\r\nPrintre participanții la \"Săptămâna Haferland\" s-au mai numărat Paul Porr, președintele Forumului Democrat al Germanilor din România, E.S. Werner Hans Lauk ambasadorul Republicii Federale Germania la București etc. Aceștia au apreciat politica pozitivă față de minorități în România și și implicarea activă a statului în susținerea învățământului în limba maternă a minorităților etnice. Un alt aspect pozitiv - prin organizarea de evenimente și manifestări artistice numărul turiștilor care vizitează satele săsești crește de la an la an, cu aproximativ 25%, însă obiectivul organizatorilor festivalului este ca aceștia să ajungă nu doar într-unul, ci în cât mai multe dintre satele din această zonă. La rândul său Michael Schmidt a vorbit și despre alte proiecte susținute de fundația pe care o conduce. ”Pentru a-i sprijini pe cei care vor să devină dascăli pentru clasele cu predare în limba germană, Fundația Michael Schmidt a acordat, începând din 2013 burse de studiu prin care a fost suportată taxa universitară pentru un număr de 17 studenţi. Fondurile strânse, în timpul festivalului, prin sponsorizări și donații, vor fi redirecționate către noi burse de studiu si către alte proiecte dedicate învățământului în limba germană. Un alt demers al Fundației este furnizarea de materiale didactice în limba germană către toate clasele pregătitoare, cu predare în limba germană, din întregul județ Sibiu, urmând ca din toamnă acest proiect să fie extins și în zona de nord a țării, în județele Satu-Mare, Baia Mare și Sălaj”. Printre proiectele implementate de fundație se numără: restaurarea Orgii Bisericii din Criț, producția filmului “Orgile din Transilvania, o întoarcere în timp”, ajutorarea victimelor inundațiilor în anul 2010 în județul Botoșani, precum și susținerea unor proiecte inițiate de alte organizații, cum sunt: Fundația Peter Maffay - inaugurarea centrului destinat copiilor provenind din familii cu probleme de la Roadeș, Premiul Cultural Săsesc și sprijinirea unor manifestări artistice precum proiectele „Clasic e fantastic” sau „Musica Coronensis”.

”Bulgaria și România, alte țări vecine trebuie să-și extindă colaborarea în scopul stimulării investițiilor în turism. Dezvoltarea strategiilor și inițiativelor transfrontaliere ori regionale deschide calea unor posibilități de exprimare complexe. În ceea ce privește Bulgaria vom continua dezvoltarea competitivității, poziționarea realistă și solidă pe piețele țintă precum și consolidarea strategiei de dezvoltare durabilă a turismului în perspectiva anilor 2030” - a subliniat Nikolina Angelkova, ministrul turismului din Bulgaria.\nIdeile au fost expuse în cadrul unei întâlniri cu reprezentanții Camera bilateralã de comerþ Bulgaria-România (BCCBR). Membrii acesteia au prezentat seturi de propuneri pentru îmbunătățirea produsului turistic și a serviciilor comune în regiune. Una dintre cele mai importante s-a referit la posibilitatea de a crea mai multe puncte de contact peste Dunăre între cele două țări. În acest scop va fi elaborat un plan ce prevede construirea de noi poduri în următorii 5-10 ani.

\nBUCUREȘTIUL - Competitiv, Conectat, Eficient
\nÎn ultimii 25 de ani Capitala României s-a dezvoltat din punct de vedere turistic, sub așteptările locuitorilor dar și al celor ce-l vizitează. În ciuda potenţialului ridicat de dezvoltare şi a rolului său regional, Bucureștiul se află în fața unor provocări majore economice dar și administrative. De aceea este nevoie de o sensibilizare a opiniei publice și de crearea și organizarea unor evenimente de impact care să creeze prestigiul care-l merită acest oraș modern. Sunt doar o parte din concluziile sintetizate de către Fundaţia CAESAR (Centrul pentru Acces la Expertiza Studenţilor şi Absolvenţilor Români). Ea a organizat la Athénée Palace Hilton, în colaborare cu GEA Strategy & Consulting, Colocviul „Bucureşti – Capitală Europeană”. Desfășurat pe trei secțiuni de lucru el a avut ca teme de dezbatere: Bucureştiul Competitiv, Bucureştiul Conectat și Bucureştiul Eficient. La finalul Colocviului, Fundația CAESAR a sintetizat un Raport public cu 10 soluţii pentru o nouă viziune de dezvoltare a Bucureștiului.

KOUNTOURA: ”Țin să le mulțumesc tuturor celor care au ales Grecia !”\r\n\r\n
Ministerul Economiei, Infrastructurii, Marinei și Turismului a derulat Campania Națională pentru stimularea rezervărilor în Grecia. Aceasta a avut și are ca scop stimularea creșterii rezervărilor și consolidarea turismului din Grecia, a declarat Ministrul Delegat pentru Turism, doamna Elena Kountouras. ”Campania HappeningNow: #GreekSummer a fost concepută în scopul de a sprijini rezervările de tipul last minute și pentru a reda imaginea reală și unică a Greciei - “Acum în Grecia”. Campania a inclus clipuri video, imagini și mesaje atractive despre Grecia. Prin aceasta am invitat călătorii să devină membrii activi și să-și împărtășească experiențele unice din vacanțele în Elada. Țin sã le mulțumesc tuturor ca au ales Grecia în aceste vremuri economice grele prin care trecem. Sunt sigurã cã dupã reîntoarcerea acasã veți fi cei mai buni ambasadori pentru promovarea Greciei.” – a subliniat Kountoura. Inițiativa Ministerului Turismului este pusă în aplicare de EOT (Organizația Naționala de Turism a Greciei), în colaborare cu SETE.

\r\nBUCUREȘTIUL - Competitiv, Conectat, Eficient
\r\nÎn ultimii 25 de ani Capitala României s-a dezvoltat din punct de vedere turistic, sub așteptările locuitorilor dar și al celor ce-l vizitează. În ciuda potenţialului ridicat de dezvoltare şi a rolului său regional, Bucureștiul se află în fața unor provocări majore economice dar și administrative. De aceea este nevoie de o sensibilizare a opiniei publice și de crearea și organizarea unor evenimente de impact care să creeze prestigiul care-l merită acest oraș modern. Sunt doar o parte din concluziile sintetizate de către Fundaţia CAESAR (Centrul pentru Acces la Expertiza Studenţilor şi Absolvenţilor Români). Ea a organizat la Athénée Palace Hilton, în colaborare cu GEA Strategy & Consulting, Colocviul „Bucureşti – Capitală Europeană”. Desfășurat pe trei secțiuni de lucru el a avut ca teme de dezbatere: Bucureştiul Competitiv, Bucureştiul Conectat și Bucureştiul Eficient. La finalul Colocviului, Fundația CAESAR a sintetizat un Raport public cu 10 soluţii pentru o nouă viziune de dezvoltare a Bucureștiului.

Totul a fost construit din lemn și a fost integrat în stilul vestitului Han al Ancuţei din comuna nemțeană Tupilaţi. investiția s-a ridicat la circa 400.000 de euro.\n \n\n\n\nPrin aceasta capacitatea de servire în spațiile interioare și exterioare s-a dublat. Inaugurarea a avut ca tematică o petrecere în stil țigănesc tradițional. Cu de toate pentru toți, de la costumație până la gastronomie. Prin această infuzie de capital Hanul Ancuței devine un magnet și mai puternic al ospeției pentru grupurile mari de turiști dar și pentru evenimente de anvergură.\n\nCe spune Nușa Chiriac, proprietarul complexului? “Avem în derulare contracte pentru multe grupuri de turişti străini care vor fi serviţi aici la prânz şi la cină, precum şi pentru o serie de manifestări pe tot parcursul sezonului estival”. Restaurantul hanului are la interior 150 de locuri la parter şi 150 de locuri la etaj. El vă întâmpină cu un design tradiţional românesc autentic, cu ospătari îmbrăcaţi cu veşminte populare din Moldova şi cu lăutari. Puțin călători știu că Hanul Ancuţei oferă 28 de locuri de cazare. Camerele reprezintă o îmbinare perfectă între farmecul mobilierului tradiţional românesc, confortul și dotările moderne. Nu ratați Cămara Ancuței... de unde puteți cumpăra pentru acasă dulceţuri, şerbeturi, zacuscă, pastramuri preparate în casă, plăcinte, cozonaci, turte, colaci şi multe alte bunătăţi.\n\n\nDe la SADOVEANU până la ZAHARESCU
\nAflaţi că Hanul Ancuţei este acel loc care l-a găzduit de mai multe ori pe Sadoveanu. Potrivit unor documente, hanul ar data încă din 1718, ceea ce înseamnă că peste 3 ani el va aniversa 300 de ani de existență. Clădirea a fost dărâmată de către proprietar în 1943. Autoritățile vremii au dispus, între 1957-1960, reconstrucţia hanului după planurile existente la Arhivele Statului din Iaşi. Pe locul vechiului han a fost ridicată o nouă clădire. Ea respecta linia tradiţională şi de arhitectură specifică secolului al XVIII-lea şi care a căpătat aceeaşi destinaţie de han, tocmai pentru conservarea spiritului... sadoveniano - moldovenesc. În 1998, clădirea, care ameninţa iar să intre în uitare, a fost preluată de antreprenoarea Nuşa Chiriac, care a investit mult în restaurarea sa. Astfel, după lucrări de refacere, Hanul Ancuţei a căpătat în 1999 o înfăţişare autentic românească. Au fost amenajate aici mini expoziţii de costume populare specifice zonei, cu obiecte din ceramică sau din lemn. În partea dreaptă a intrării, chiar lângă uşă, a fost amplasată o placă de marmură pe care scrie următorul text: „Pe locul vechiului han ce s-a ridicat în anul 1718 şi risipit cu ani în urmă s-a clădit, cinstindu-se slova românească a marelui Sadoveanu, noua construcţie. Fie să rămână loc de vrăjit popas şi desfătare sufletească pentru toţi călătorii pământeni sau veniţi de pe alte meleaguri“.\n\n\n\nÎn faţa hanului, în partea dinspre drumul naţional, se află bustul din piatră al marelui povestitor Mihail Sadoveanu, realizat de sculptorul romaşcan Florin Zaharescu, dezvelit la 10 noiembrie 2002.\n\n\nROMAN - rampă de lansare pentru Nordul Moldovei
\n“Întotdeauna am crezut în potenţialul turistic al României. Consider că ţara noastră nu este mai prejos decât multe destinaţii turistice de top. Încă nu ştim să ne prezentăm şi să ne vindem la potenţialul nostrum maxim, dar consider că a sosit vremea unui marketing mai agresiv, mai ales că România se află, în prezent, într-o conjunctură bună.\n\nÎn calitate de proprietar al Hotelului Roman Plaza şi al Hanului Ancuţei, împreună cu partenerii mei, ne-am gândit să promovăm programe turistice de vizitare a nordului Moldovei, mai precis a judeţelor Neamţ şi Suceava (Bucovina). Roman poate fi un adevărat centru turistic pentru regiune. De aici se poate ajunge uşor, în maxim două ore, în orice punct important al nordului Moldovei, fie Piatra Neamţ, Iaşi, Suceava sau zona istorică Bucovina” - spune Nuşa Chiriac, proprietarul hotelului de 4 stele Roman Plaza din Roman şi al Hanului Ancuţei din Tupilaţi.\n\nPe lângă promovarea directă, reprezentanţii hotelului Roman Plaza şi ai Hanului Ancuţei colaborează cu mai mulţi touroperatori pentru aducerea de turişti străini în regiune.

Totul a fost construit din lemn și a fost integrat în stilul vestitului Han al Ancuţei din comuna nemțeană Tupilaţi. investiția s-a ridicat la circa 400.000 de euro.\r\n \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nPrin aceasta capacitatea de servire în spațiile interioare și exterioare s-a dublat. Inaugurarea a avut ca tematică o petrecere în stil țigănesc tradițional. Cu de toate pentru toți, de la costumație până la gastronomie. Prin această infuzie de capital Hanul Ancuței devine un magnet și mai puternic al ospeției pentru grupurile mari de turiști dar și pentru evenimente de anvergură.\r\n\r\nCe spune Nușa Chiriac, proprietarul complexului? “Avem în derulare contracte pentru multe grupuri de turişti străini care vor fi serviţi aici la prânz şi la cină, precum şi pentru o serie de manifestări pe tot parcursul sezonului estival”. Restaurantul hanului are la interior 150 de locuri la parter şi 150 de locuri la etaj. El vă întâmpină cu un design tradiţional românesc autentic, cu ospătari îmbrăcaţi cu veşminte populare din Moldova şi cu lăutari. Puțin călători știu că Hanul Ancuţei oferă 28 de locuri de cazare. Camerele reprezintă o îmbinare perfectă între farmecul mobilierului tradiţional românesc, confortul și dotările moderne. Nu ratați Cămara Ancuței... de unde puteți cumpăra pentru acasă dulceţuri, şerbeturi, zacuscă, pastramuri preparate în casă, plăcinte, cozonaci, turte, colaci şi multe alte bunătăţi.\r\n\r\n\r\nDe la SADOVEANU până la ZAHARESCU
\r\nAflaţi că Hanul Ancuţei este acel loc care l-a găzduit de mai multe ori pe Sadoveanu. Potrivit unor documente, hanul ar data încă din 1718, ceea ce înseamnă că peste 3 ani el va aniversa 300 de ani de existență. Clădirea a fost dărâmată de către proprietar în 1943. Autoritățile vremii au dispus, între 1957-1960, reconstrucţia hanului după planurile existente la Arhivele Statului din Iaşi. Pe locul vechiului han a fost ridicată o nouă clădire. Ea respecta linia tradiţională şi de arhitectură specifică secolului al XVIII-lea şi care a căpătat aceeaşi destinaţie de han, tocmai pentru conservarea spiritului... sadoveniano - moldovenesc. În 1998, clădirea, care ameninţa iar să intre în uitare, a fost preluată de antreprenoarea Nuşa Chiriac, care a investit mult în restaurarea sa. Astfel, după lucrări de refacere, Hanul Ancuţei a căpătat în 1999 o înfăţişare autentic românească. Au fost amenajate aici mini expoziţii de costume populare specifice zonei, cu obiecte din ceramică sau din lemn. În partea dreaptă a intrării, chiar lângă uşă, a fost amplasată o placă de marmură pe care scrie următorul text: „Pe locul vechiului han ce s-a ridicat în anul 1718 şi risipit cu ani în urmă s-a clădit, cinstindu-se slova românească a marelui Sadoveanu, noua construcţie. Fie să rămână loc de vrăjit popas şi desfătare sufletească pentru toţi călătorii pământeni sau veniţi de pe alte meleaguri“.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nÎn faţa hanului, în partea dinspre drumul naţional, se află bustul din piatră al marelui povestitor Mihail Sadoveanu, realizat de sculptorul romaşcan Florin Zaharescu, dezvelit la 10 noiembrie 2002.\r\n\r\n\r\nROMAN - rampă de lansare pentru Nordul Moldovei
\r\n“Întotdeauna am crezut în potenţialul turistic al României. Consider că ţara noastră nu este mai prejos decât multe destinaţii turistice de top. Încă nu ştim să ne prezentăm şi să ne vindem la potenţialul nostrum maxim, dar consider că a sosit vremea unui marketing mai agresiv, mai ales că România se află, în prezent, într-o conjunctură bună.\r\n\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_4222\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"683\"] Hotel Roman din Roman[/caption]\r\n\r\n\r\nÎn calitate de proprietar al Hotelului Roman Plaza şi al Hanului Ancuţei, împreună cu partenerii mei, ne-am gândit să promovăm programe turistice de vizitare a nordului Moldovei, mai precis a judeţelor Neamţ şi Suceava (Bucovina). Roman poate fi un adevărat centru turistic pentru regiune. De aici se poate ajunge uşor, în maxim două ore, în orice punct important al nordului Moldovei, fie Piatra Neamţ, Iaşi, Suceava sau zona istorică Bucovina” - spune Nuşa Chiriac, proprietarul hotelului de 4 stele Roman Plaza din Roman şi al Hanului Ancuţei din Tupilaţi.\r\n\r\nPe lângă promovarea directă, reprezentanţii hotelului Roman Plaza şi ai Hanului Ancuţei colaborează cu mai mulţi touroperatori pentru aducerea de turişti străini în regiune. Unul dintre atuuri este reprezentat de calendarul bogat de evenimente organizate de ambele unități. “Balul Femeii la Hanu-Ancuţei” cu Alesis şi Orchestra Lăutarii și ”Dragobetele românilor” sunt doar două dintre ele. \r\n\r\n Anul trecut, s-au cazat pentru 1-2 nopţi la Hotelul Roman Plaza şi s-au familiarizat cu deliciile culinare ale Hanului Ancuţei grupuri dar și turiști individuali din Germania, Franţa, Polonia, Italia, SUA, Japonia etc. „Hotelul Roman Plaza a devenit deja hotel de tranzit pentru turiştii străini care aleg circuite, dar scopul nostru este şi acela de a crea din nordul Moldovei o destinaţie turistică în sine.

\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"4230,4231,4232,4233,4234,4235\"]\r\nEvenimentul neconvențional a atras, timp de o saptamână, membri din Croaţia, Serbia, Egipt, Bulgaria şi România. Prima parte a fost acoperită de cursuri de profil la Academia de Studii Economice din Bratislava. Turismul în Europa centrală, marketing în turism, brandul turistic au fost câteva dintre subiectele abordate. După care s-au derulat vizite de documentare în câteva dintre cele mai importante atracţii turistice din Bratislava şi din împrejurimi. Deşi este una dintre cele mai tinere capitale europene, media de vârstă a locuitorilor fiind de doar 36 de ani, istoria aşezării e mai veche de 2.000 de ani. Faptul că este situată la doar 78 de kilometri de Viena, un magnet pentru turişti din toată lumea, constituie un avantaj. Dezavantajul este că mulţi turişti îşi alocă prea puţine zile pentru a cunoaşte capitala Slovaciei şi împrejurimile ei. În primul rând veţi fi atraşi de intimitatea oraşului relativ mic, plin de viaţă şi de cultură în ciuda dimensiunilor sale. Unul dintre cele mai atractive locuri din oraş este cu siguranţă Stare mesto (Centrul vechi), pe ale cărui străzi înguste vă puteţi plimba ore în şir, admirând monumente istorice impresionante. Cele mai vizitate dintre acestea sunt Castelul Bratislava, Catedrala Sf. Martin, Palatul Arhiepiscopului Primat, Poarta Sf. Mihail, vechea primărie etc.
\r\nBRATISLAVA - O TURĂ PRINTRE OGLINZI
\r\nCentrul oraşului Bratislava este plin de locuri minunate, nenumărate cafenele şi restaurante excelente. Iubitorii de artă modernă se vor simţiţi cu adevărat răsfăţaţi în Bratislava. În data de 9 septembrie, 2000, la mai puţin de 15 kilometri de centrul oraşului, pe marginea unei peninsule, s-a deschis unul dintre cele mai tinere muzee de artă modernă din Europa - Danubiana. Numele muzeului este inspirat de cel al fluviului, care se poate admira prin pereţii de sticlă ai clădirii. Entuziasmul, dar şi iniţiativa proprietarului de galerie dr. Vincent Polakovič, combinate cu fondurile puse la dispoziţie de colecţionarul şi olandez Gerard H. Meulensteen, au pus bazele acestui muzeu inedit. La parter, există o galerie de artă contemporană, cu exponate de vânzare, un loc pentru expoziţii mai mici, un centru audio-vizual şi o sală de lectură. O vizită la muzeul Danubiana ar trebui combinată cu una la Palatul Arhiepiscopului Primat, construit în stil neoclasic, în Oraşul Vechi. Cea mai faimoasă cameră a sa, Sala Oglinzilor, a fost creata prin conectarea mai multor camere cu oglinzi şi covoare din Damasc. Aici veţi găsi o mare parte din colecţia de artă a oraşului, portrete ale monarhilor habsburgici şi o serie de şase tapiserii englezeşti, din secolul al XVII-lea, care descriu legenda iubirii tragice dintre Hero şi Leander. La confluenţa Dunării cu râul Morava, veţi găsi ruinele unui castel ridicat în secolul al IX-lea. Este unul dintre cele mai importante obiective ale Bratislavei. Stânca înaltă de 212 metri a fost considerată la vremea respectivă locul perfect pentru construirea fortăreţei. Tot aici a fost înfiinţată şi prima biserică creştină din regiunea Slovaciei. Castelul Devin nu a fost cucerit niciodată. Este deschis pe toată perioada verii, veţi beneficia de ghidaj în limba engleză.
\r\nALBASTRU CIUDAT, ALBASTRU UNIC
\r\nNu ratați Podul Nou (Novy Most), cunoscut prin turnul care oferă una dintre cele mai frumoase privelişti asupra oraşului. În vârful acestuia se află un restaurant, în forma unei farfurii zburătoare, unde puteţi servi masa, admirând oraşul de la înălţime. Traversându-l, ajungeţi în Centrul Vechi, unde veţi găsi Vechea Primărie. Aceasta este un complex de clădiri din secolul al XIV-lea. În perioada 1370 – 1850, unele camere au fost temniţe. Unele instrumente de tortură, devenite acum exponate, amintesc despre suferinţele deţinuţilor. În apropiere, vă va atrage atenţia Biserica Sf. Elisabeta a Ungariei, căreia toată lumea îi spune Biserica Albastră. Este inclusă în lista obiectivelor turistice obligatoriu de văzut. Interiorul şi exteriorul sunt vopsite numai în nuanţe de albastru. Impresionantă e și catedrala gotică Sf. Martin. A fost locul locul de încoronare a 11 regi şi 8 regine între anii 1563 şi 1830. Interiorul are o lungime de 70 de metri iar Turnul are o înălțime de 85 de metri. Dar cel mai vizitat monument este cu siguranță Castelul Bratislava. Un adevărat brand al oraşului, pe care-l veţi vedea pe aproape toate cărţile poştale sau albumele despre Bratislava. Castelul datează din jurul anilor 500 - 600 î. Hr. Clădirile au elemente arhitecturale gotice, renascentiste şi ale stilului baroc. Aici puteţi vizita sala trezoreriei, sala cavalerilor, o expoziţie permanentă şi galeria castelului. Monumentul este situat pe o colină, deasupra vechiului oraş.
\r\nLA PAS, AUTO ȘI LA GALOP
\r\nBratislava Bieke Point este întotdeauna punctul de plecare al bicicliştilor. Aceştia se bucură aici de toate serviciile de care au nevoie: informaţii despre rutele de ciclism, cazare în Bratislava, tururi ghidate, închirieri de biciclete etc. Plecând de aici, vă puteţi îndrepta spre graniţa cu Austria, Ungaria şi Slovacia, alegând pe loc ce ţară doriţi să vizitaţi. Bratislava Bike Point se află la intersecţia a două rute internaţionale de ciclism EUROVELO 6 şi EUROVELO 13. Vă pasionează maşinile de curse? Atunci fuga spre Slovakia Ring. Aici veţi avea ocazia să fiţi copilot, să vă testaţi abilităţile de conducere sau să asistaţi la binecunoscute competiţii anuale: FIA WTCC, FIA GT Series, ADAC GT Masters, Grand Prix Slovakia şi Campionatul Alpe Adria. Pistele sunt omologate de Federaţia Internaţională de Automobilism, iar complexul dispune inclusive de un hotel, restaurant şi baruri. Unic în Slovacia, el poartă semnătura arhitectului austriac Hand Roth, autor al unor proiecte similare în Austria şi Ungaria. Și cei îndrăgostiți de hipism își pot satisface pasiunea la Centrul Šamorín aflat la circa 30 de kilometri de Bratislava. Aici omul de afaceri Mario Hoffman a creat - pe circa 40 de hectare, în urma unei investiții de peste 100 de milioane de euro -, cel mai mare centru ecvestru din Europa centrală.
\r\nFOTOGRAFII DIN ORAȘUL DE ARGINT
\r\nLa 172 de km de Bratislava se află Banská Štiavnica. Despre el se spune că este cel mai frumos oraş din Slovacia. Loc de pelerinaj romantic el este aşezat chiar în centrul unui vulcan de mult stins. Dacă la suprafaţă clădirile medievale cuceresc turiştii, în subteran, galeriile lungi de kilometri întregi îi cuceresc pe toţi. Istoria oraşului e fascinantă. Era un Eldorado al Europei, cel mai mare depozit de aur şi de argint, şi era cunoscut înainte sub numele de „Oraşul de argint”. Comorile de aici au finanţat palatele construite în Viena şi Budapesta. Școlile de ştiinţă erau recunoscute peste tot. Și tot aici, pentru prima dată în istoria omenirii, s-a folosit praful de puşcă pentru dislocarea rocilor. În prezent, oraşul de buzunar atrage vizitatorii prin arhitectura originală splendidă, biserici şi palate ale burgheziei bogate şi case de mineri modeste, împrăştiate pe dealurile abrupte din împrejurimi. Este locul ideal pentru fotografi, întrucât locul pare încremenit în timp. Nu există semafoare, panouri publicitare care să sufoce vederea, iar tradiţiile au rămas vii. Oraşul e pe lista patrimoniului mondial UNESCO. De-a lungul străzilor se pot întâlni pictori, iar oferta concertelor care au loc în cafenele stilate este deosebit de bogată. Destinația vă oferă și acest aforism: Oamenii se împart în două categorii: cei care iubesc Štiavnica şi cei care n-au ajuns încă acolo.

Cel mai mult interesează motivele pentru care germanii s-ar reîntoarce, măcar pentru câteva săptămâni de concediu pe an, în locurile unde s-au născut ei, părinții, bunicii și copiii lor. Nu întâmplător recenta ediție, a treia, a Festivalului Haferland a avut ca tematică educația, iar sloganul evenimentului “Istoria ne învață!”. Manifestarea a avut ca ”epicentru cultural” satul Criț din județul Brașov. Haferland (Țara Ovăzului) include satele săsești din zona cuprinsă între Rupea și Sighișoara, astfel că turiștii au avut șansa de a vizita localitățile Fișer, Saschiz, Viscri, Criț, Meșendorf și Roadeș. Inițiatorii evenimentului au fost Fundația Michael Schmidt împreună cu Fundația Tabaluga. Înființată în 2010 Fundația Schmidt și-a propus să devină vârful de lance al conservării patrimoniul cultural săsesc, să contribuie la promovarea limbii germane în România. Și un interlocutor nonguvernamental important al statului german în domeniul creării de evenimente. Dintre acestea Festivalul Haferland este cel mai important. Numai în ultima zi manifestările (concursurile de biciclete, reuniuni culturale și artistice, slujba religioasă din biserica fortificată, concertele de orgă și chitară rece, expoziția dedicată Anului Școlii, Balul Tradițional Săsesc etc.), au atras circa 1500 de turiști.\n\n\n\nORI LA BAL ORI LA CHITARĂ\n\n\n\nCe ne-a reținut atenția din agenda culturală a manifestării! Fabuloasa prezență a Fanfarei din Țara Bârsei care a secondat și recitalurile instrumentale ale unor artiști transilvani. Evoluțiile la orga bisericii Evanghelice Fortificate din Criț ale artiștilor Klaus Untch și Steffen Schlandt însoțit de grupul Quartetto Brassovia. Special s-a dovedit recitalul de chitară din interiorul aceleiași biserici (felicitări creatorilor de inedit și magie culturală) al Duo Kitharsis (Alexandra Petrişor & Dragoş Horghidan). O subliniere, pentru readucere aminte a bogăției tradițiilor folclorice ale sașilor, pentru Ansamblul de dans Korona, format din tineri frumoși și pasionați, care au încins atmosfera și la Balul Săsesc de închidere. \nPLEDOARIE PENTRU TRADIȚII
\nMai puțin spectaculoase, dar pline de substanță și realism, s-au dovedit alocuțiunile unor personalități invitate să susțină Festivalul Haferland. Ministrul Educației Naționale Sorin Cîmpeanu, a subliniat că reducerea numărului de etnici germani din România din ultimii ani înseamnă și \"scăderea aportului comunității săsești în ceea ce înseamnă diversitatea culturală a țării noastre. La nivel național, potrivit statisticilor oficiale, în grădiniţele şi şcolile din România sunt înscrişi 23.156 copii care învaţă în limba germană, însă numărul profesorilor care pot preda discipline în această limbă este insuficient. De aceea salut implicarea statului german în subvenționarea materială a profesorilor care predau limba germană în România, etnici germani sau nu. Contează prea puțin această nuanță. Contează azi că în țara noastră se crează un spirit al solidarității care poate fi reconstruită prin tradiții, relații și spirit comunitar. De aceea salut și implicarea masivă a organizațiilor și asociațiilor în această direcție”. La rândul său Deputatul Bernd Fabrițius, primul sas din Transilvania ales în Bundestag, și-a manifestat dorința ca ecumenismul să fie prezent tot mai mult în România, apreciind ca fiind un exemplu pozitiv slujba oficiată în biserica fortificată din Criț, de către episcopul Bisericii Evanghelice C.A. din România, Reinhardt Guib. ”Peste un milion de de germani trăiesc în Europa Centrală și de Est. Noi trebuie să ne ocupăm de tradițiile și viața lor, de susținerea memoriei și recuperarea istoriei acestei minorități. Există motive reale de optimism în România. Biserica are un rol important și cu ajutorul ei am convingerea că vom putea recupera istoria, cultura, identitatea. Ne-am propus să ajutăm nu doar la reconstruirea unor biserici, monumente ci și să investim în limba germană, în educație. Budestag a sprijinit cu indemnizații de circa 700.000 de euro activitatea a 722 de profesori ce predau limba germană. Cele două consulate de la Brașov și Timișoara fac o muncă bună pentru dezvoltarea și susținerea acestor proiecte”.
\nCLASIC E FANTASTIC
\nPrintre participanții la \"Săptămâna Haferland\" s-au mai numărat Paul Porr, președintele Forumului Democrat al Germanilor din România, E.S. Werner Hans Lauk ambasadorul Republicii Federale Germania la București etc. Aceștia au apreciat politica pozitivă față de minorități în România și și implicarea activă a statului în susținerea învățământului în limba maternă a minorităților etnice. Un alt aspect pozitiv - prin organizarea de evenimente și manifestări artistice numărul turiștilor care vizitează satele săsești crește de la an la an, cu aproximativ 25%, însă obiectivul organizatorilor festivalului este ca aceștia să ajungă nu doar într-unul, ci în cât mai multe dintre satele din această zonă. La rândul său Michael Schmidt a vorbit și despre alte proiecte susținute de fundația pe care o conduce. ”Pentru a-i sprijini pe cei care vor să devină dascăli pentru clasele cu predare în limba germană, Fundația Michael Schmidt a acordat, începând din 2013 burse de studiu prin care a fost suportată taxa universitară pentru un număr de 17 studenţi. Fondurile strânse, în timpul festivalului, prin sponsorizări și donații, vor fi redirecționate către noi burse de studiu si către alte proiecte dedicate învățământului în limba germană. Un alt demers al Fundației este furnizarea de materiale didactice în limba germană către toate clasele pregătitoare, cu predare în limba germană, din întregul județ Sibiu, urmând ca din toamnă acest proiect să fie extins și în zona de nord a țării, în județele Satu-Mare, Baia Mare și Sălaj”. Printre proiectele implementate de fundație se numără: restaurarea Orgii Bisericii din Criț, producția filmului “Orgile din Transilvania, o întoarcere în timp”, ajutorarea victimelor inundațiilor în anul 2010 în județul Botoșani, precum și susținerea unor proiecte inițiate de alte organizații, cum sunt: Fundația Peter Maffay - inaugurarea centrului destinat copiilor provenind din familii cu probleme de la Roadeș, Premiul Cultural Săsesc și sprijinirea unor manifestări artistice precum proiectele „Clasic e fantastic” sau „Musica Coronensis”.

De aceea salut și implicarea masivă a organizațiilor și asociațiilor în această direcție”. La rândul său Deputatul Bernd Fabrițius, primul sas din Transilvania ales în Bundestag, și-a manifestat dorința ca ecumenismul să fie prezent tot mai mult în România, apreciind ca fiind un exemplu pozitiv slujba oficiată în biserica fortificată din Criț, de către episcopul Bisericii Evanghelice C.A. din România, Reinhardt Guib.\r\n\r\n”Peste un milion de de germani trăiesc în Europa Centrală și de Est. Noi trebuie să ne ocupăm de tradițiile și viața lor, de susținerea memoriei și recuperarea istoriei acestei minorități. Există motive reale de optimism în România. Biserica are un rol important și cu ajutorul ei am convingerea că vom putea recupera istoria, cultura, identitatea. Ne-am propus să ajutăm nu doar la reconstruirea unor biserici, monumente ci și să investim în limba germană, în educație. Budestag a sprijinit cu indemnizații de circa 700.000 de euro activitatea a 722 de profesori ce predau limba germană. Cele două consulate de la Brașov și Timișoara fac o muncă bună pentru dezvoltarea și susținerea acestor proiecte”.\r\n\r\n
CLASIC E FANTASTIC
\r\nPrintre participanții la \"Săptămâna Haferland\" s-au mai numărat Paul Porr, președintele Forumului Democrat al Germanilor din România, E.S. Werner Hans Lauk ambasadorul Republicii Federale Germania la București etc. Aceștia au apreciat politica pozitivă față de minorități în România și și implicarea activă a statului în susținerea învățământului în limba maternă a minorităților etnice. Un alt aspect pozitiv - prin organizarea de evenimente și manifestări artistice numărul turiștilor care vizitează satele săsești crește de la an la an, cu aproximativ 25%, însă obiectivul organizatorilor festivalului este ca aceștia să ajungă nu doar într-unul, ci în cât mai multe dintre satele din această zonă. La rândul său Michael Schmidt a vorbit și despre alte proiecte susținute de fundația pe care o conduce. ”Pentru a-i sprijini pe cei care vor să devină dascăli pentru clasele cu predare în limba germană, Fundația Michael Schmidt a acordat, începând din 2013 burse de studiu prin care a fost suportată taxa universitară pentru un număr de 17 studenţi. Fondurile strânse, în timpul festivalului, prin sponsorizări și donații, vor fi redirecționate către noi burse de studiu si către alte proiecte dedicate învățământului în limba germană. Un alt demers al Fundației este furnizarea de materiale didactice în limba germană către toate clasele pregătitoare, cu predare în limba germană, din întregul județ Sibiu, urmând ca din toamnă acest proiect să fie extins și în zona de nord a țării, în județele Satu-Mare, Baia Mare și Sălaj”. Printre proiectele implementate de fundație se numără: restaurarea Orgii Bisericii din Criț, producția filmului “Orgile din Transilvania, o întoarcere în timp”, ajutorarea victimelor inundațiilor în anul 2010 în județul Botoșani, precum și susținerea unor proiecte inițiate de alte organizații, cum sunt: Fundația Peter Maffay - inaugurarea centrului destinat copiilor provenind din familii cu probleme de la Roadeș, Premiul Cultural Săsesc și sprijinirea unor manifestări artistice precum proiectele „Clasic e fantastic” sau „Musica Coronensis”.

Turismul nu face diferența între rase, religii, opțiuni de viață, culturi. Și nici nu va trebui să o facă vreodată. Turismul a creat un spațiu planetar, ideal pentru înțelegere și armonie. De aceea turismul e considerat liantul solid care contribuie la menținerea păcii. Drept urmare industria călătoriilor este principalul dușman al atacurilor teroriste care încearcă să destabilizeze încrederea între oameni. Mai mult, atacurile teroriste ce s-au produs în ultimele luni în diferite părți ale lumii, au generat mari riscuri și obstacole pentru jurnaliștii de travel în a-și exercita profesia. Unii au rămas cu traume, alții și-au pierdut chiar viața pe un front în care războiul se duce între fanaticii blindați cu arme și profesioniștii ce promovează ideile frumosului, unicitatea și spații inedite de pe planetă. Unii i-ar da din start victorioși pe primii (asta dacă terorismul ar putea fi, dar nu e, considerat o competiție). În realitate jurnaliștii de turism sunt cei aplaudați de cititorii lor.

Eveniment pe segmentul turistic balnear. La începutul lunii a intrat pe piața hotelieră primul complex de sănătate de 5 stele din România. Investiția, care s-a ridicat la peste 29 de milioane de euro, aparține companiei Turism Lotus Felix SA, ai cărei acționari sunt SIF Transilvania Brașov, SIF Oltenia Craiova, SC Turism Felix SA, SIF Muntenia București și SIF Moldova Bacău.\r\n![\"Lotus](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Lotus-Florian-Serac-dir-gen.jpg\")

Lotus Therm Spa&Luxury Resort din Băile Felix, care valorifică amplasamentul a două hoteluri vechi, modernizate în ultimele decenii - vine astăzi cu o ofertă aliniată la standardele internaționale din domeniul balnear. Complexul promovează o capacitate de 180 de camere și 262 de locuri de cazare, 79 camere single, 37 camere double, 3 camere pentru persoane cu dizabilități, 39 apartamente, 8 suite și 6 apartamente speciale – VIP, Honeymoon, Gold, Blue. Lotus Resort se întinde pe o suprafață de aproximativ 47.000 metri pătrați și deține un aquapark inedit, unic în România - Felixarium pe care l-am prezentat în momentul lansării proiectului. El include 14 piscine interioare și exterioare cu apă termală, jacuzzi, cascade, doua tobogane, Baruri tematice, teren de beach volley, centrul Gold Spa, cameră de gheață etc.
\r\nO asemenea investiție reprezintă o mare provocare pentru viitorii turiști. Ce servicii și beneficii noi vor avea cei care vor opta pentru acest complex? Florian Serac, directorul general al societății din Băile Felix este de părere că ”zona de agrement în care am investit circa 11 milioane de euro, va fi o mare supriză. Două treimi din ea este acoperită. Acoperișurile sunt rabatabile în formă de semicerc. Ea poate funcționa excelent deci și pe perioada de iarnă. În cadrul Centrului se află unicul aparat Tecar Terapia din regiunea de Nord-Vest a României cu ajutorul căruia se efectuează o terapie neinvazivă, antiinflamatorie și regenerativă foarte utilă pentru sportivii profesioniștii. Procedura înjumătățește timpul de recuperare. Ne gândim să introducem și serviciile all inclusive înainte de 2020. Eu estimez că investiția va fi recuperată în circa 15 ani”.

DUBAI - Întreabă de Burj Khalifa
\r\nDubai-ul este o destinație turistică de lux. Dar este pregătit să absoarbă și bugetele medii. Arabian Travel Market (ATM) a organizat în acest an o secțiune dedicată acestor tipuri de consumatori. Actorii din industria turistică s-au întâlnit cu cumpărătorii de produse turistice de lux din întreaga lume. Dar și cu touroperatorii interesați de noile investiții hoteliere care le permit, în anumite perioade ale anului, să promoveze pachete foarte atractive. Dezbaterile între participanți s-au lăsat și cu un simpozion dar și cu un sondaj efectuat în rândul a peste 1.000 de respondenți. Pentru ce veniți ori reveniți în Dubai ? Pe primul loc în preferințele lor s-a situat motivația luxului, care pare să-și aibă reședința în această parte a lumii. 69% dintre călătorii chestionați au agreat ideea că turismul de lux începe cu hoteluri cu un standard minim de 5 stele. Majoritatea au avut în ultimele 12 luni două vacanțe de lux în zonă, ceea ce asigură creșterea cererii. S-a remarcat și ideea că definiția luxului e relativă. Ea este strâns legată de perspectiva turistului, iar lanțurile hoteliere îi ”cheamă” cu branduri celebre dedicate acestui tip de clientele. Astfel interpretarea luxului reprezintă o cale spre succes. Ce vor să primească oamenii bogați contra sumelor exorbitante pe care le cheltuiesc în Dubai? Camere cu vederi frumoase, încântătoare, restaurante pline de rafinament, servicii dedicate și un ambient pe măsură. Nici nu cer prea mult! În plus, peste 61% dintre respondenți au declarat că ei călătoresc în familie, la recomandarea prietenilor. Un sejur are o medie de 5,1 nopți, iar cheltuielile de persoană se ridică la... 8310 dolari.
\r\nRețeta absorbirii cu succes a acestor bani pare foarte simplă! Dar trebuie să ști să o aplici. Investițiile în turism, pe termen lung, au efecte... miraculoase. Celebra construcție Burj Khalifa (828 de metri) și fântânile - cînd dansatoare, când cântătoare -, atrag anual peste 80 de milioane de vizitatori, depășind el singur numărul de turiști care frecventează New York-ul. Dubai Mall a devenit prima destinație mondială de shopping. Anul trecut, conform portalului online Statista, au sosit în Dubai 11,9 milioane de vizitatori. Iar în 2020, când aici va fi găzduită World Expo, Al Marktoum International Airport - ce se află în plină expansiune -, estimează că va primi în jur de 98 de milioane de pasageri.
\r\nQATAR - Business și fotbal
\r\nPoate n-o să credeți! Dar în Qatar, țară considerată un importat nod turistic al Orientului, dezvoltatorii au în derulare nu mai puțin de 117 proiecte de investiții. Pentru a face și mai atractiv acest nod au fost accelerate lucrările la terminarea Aeroportului Internațional Hamad, ceea ce va permite Qatar Airways să-și extindă rețelele de zbor în și dinspre Europa. Deocamdată doar 15% dintre turiști provin din Europa, grosul circulației fiind furnizat de către țările asiatice și cele din Golf. Alte proiectele turistice ce ating cifra de 8,5 miliarde de dolari, sunt concentrate pe concepte ca: Doha Festival City, Doha Convention Centre, Mall of Qatar, Doha Zoo, Lusail Museum, Katara Towers și desigur stadionul pe care se vor desfășura o parte din meciurile FIFA World Cup în 2022. Conform Qatar Tourism Authority (QTA) industria turistică generează peste 61.000 de locuri de muncă care au oferit suportul pentru 2,8 milioane de vizitatori în 2014. Aceștia au lăsat la rândul lor în Qatar 7,6 miliarde de dolari, în creștere față de anul precedent. Rata de ocupare - 73% - oferă industriei toate motivele de optimism mai ales că locomotiva acesteia este turismul de lux.
\r\nKUWAIT - Mai mult decât o destinație City Break
\r\nÎn 2014 au sosit aici doar 270.000 de turiști străini. Dar în planurile de dezvoltare economică care sunt desenate în cicluri de cinci ani, peste 10 ani sunt așteptați circa 440.000. Pentru aceasta statul kuwaitian și-a propus să aloce resurse importante pentru crearea unei infrastructuri turistice moderne, demne de cele mai îndrăznețe proiecte futuriste. În total este vorba de 13 miliarde de dolari. O parte dintre aceștia vor contribui la construcția unui mare terminal de pasageri pe Aeroportul Internațional din Kuwait ce urmează a fi dat în folosință în 2016. Un alt proiect are în centrul său construcția unor rețele de metrou cu o lungime de 160 de kilometri. El va fi conectat în final cu o rețea feroviară ce străbate peste 510 kilometri. Alte investiții de top sunt Abdulla Al Salem Cultural Centre (aproximativ 416 milioane de dolari); Al Kout Mall (206 milioane); Jaber Al Ahmed Olympic City (200 milioane ); The Avenue (150 milioane) etc.
\r\nPe segmentul hotelier până la sfârșitul acestui an este așteptată o creștere cu 30% a numărului de locuri de cazare (aproximativ 10.000 de noi camere). În prezent călătorii au la dispoziție în acest stat peste 7250 de locuri de cazare. Încă 7 hoteluri aflate în construcție vor aduce un plus de aproape 1960 de camere. Rata medie de ocupare consemnată anul trecut de către compania STR Global a fost de aproape 52% iar cheltuielile per noapte/turist se ridică la circa 253 de dolari. Conform studiilor de marketing majoritatea vizitatorilor vin din Emirate și din țările limitrofe așa explicându-se de ce deocamdată Kuwait-ul este preponderent o destinație de city-break. Se înțelege că ambițiile sunt mult mai mari și de aceea din investițiile totale amintite 2 miliarde de dolari vor fi pompați în infrastructura turistică.

\r\nPoate n-o să credeți! Dar în Qatar, țară considerată un importat nod turistic al Orientului, dezvoltatorii au în derulare nu mai puțin de 117 proiecte de investiții. Pentru a face și mai atractiv acest nod au fost accelerate lucrările la terminarea Aeroportului Internațional Hamad, ceea ce va permite Qatar Airways să-și extindă rețelele de zbor în și dinspre Europa. Deocamdată doar 15% dintre turiști provin din Europa, grosul circulației fiind furnizat de către țările asiatice și cele din Golf. Alte proiectele turistice ce ating cifra de 8,5 miliarde de dolari, sunt concentrate pe concepte ca: Doha Festival City, Doha Convention Centre, Mall of Qatar, Doha Zoo, Lusail Museum, Katara Towers și desigur stadionul pe care se vor desfășura o parte din meciurile FIFA World Cup în 2022. Conform Qatar Tourism Authority (QTA) industria turistică generează peste 61.000 de locuri de muncă care au oferit suportul pentru 2,8 milioane de vizitatori în 2014. Aceștia au lăsat la rândul lor în Qatar 7,6 miliarde de dolari, în creștere față de anul precedent. Rata de ocupare - 73% - oferă industriei toate motivele de optimism mai ales că locomotiva acesteia este turismul de lux.
\r\nKUWAIT - Mai mult decât o destinație City Break
\r\nÎn 2014 au sosit aici doar 270.000 de turiști străini. Dar în planurile de dezvoltare economică care sunt desenate în cicluri de cinci ani, peste 10 ani sunt așteptați circa 440.000. Pentru aceasta statul kuwaitian și-a propus să aloce resurse importante pentru crearea unei infrastructuri turistice moderne, demne de cele mai îndrăznețe proiecte futuriste. În total este vorba de 13 miliarde de dolari. O parte dintre aceștia vor contribui la construcția unui mare terminal de pasageri pe Aeroportul Internațional din Kuwait ce urmează a fi dat în folosință în 2016. Un alt proiect are în centrul său construcția unor rețele de metrou cu o lungime de 160 de kilometri. El va fi conectat în final cu o rețea feroviară ce străbate peste 510 kilometri. Alte investiții de top sunt Abdulla Al Salem Cultural Centre (aproximativ 416 milioane de dolari); Al Kout Mall (206 milioane); Jaber Al Ahmed Olympic City (200 milioane ); The Avenue (150 milioane) etc.
\r\nPe segmentul hotelier până la sfârșitul acestui an este așteptată o creștere cu 30% a numărului de locuri de cazare (aproximativ 10.000 de noi camere). În prezent călătorii au la dispoziție în acest stat peste 7250 de locuri de cazare. Încă 7 hoteluri aflate în construcție vor aduce un plus de aproape 1960 de camere. Rata medie de ocupare consemnată anul trecut de către compania STR Global a fost de aproape 52% iar cheltuielile per noapte/turist se ridică la circa 253 de dolari. Conform studiilor de marketing majoritatea vizitatorilor vin din Emirate și din țările limitrofe așa explicându-se de ce deocamdată Kuwait-ul este preponderent o destinație de city-break. Se înțelege că ambițiile sunt mult mai mari și de aceea din investițiile totale amintite 2 miliarde de dolari vor fi pompați în infrastructura turistică.
\r\nAlte țări, alte tendințe, luna viitoare!

OLD TIME și Clubul PĂLĂRIILOR ROȘII
\r\nAm lăsat în urma noastră orașul via Citrus County, îndreptându-ne spre celebrul ”Ellie Schiller Homosassa Spring Wildlife State Park”. Prima stație obligatorie a reprezentat-o un restaurant faimos prin părțile locului. ”Mc Leod House Bistro” e un local istoric cu care iese în față, de câte ori au ocazia oamenii ce-și duc viața în Inverness - Citrus. Clădirea veche de peste 100 de ani e înconjurată de case ca din povești, alei cu stejari seculari uriași, magazine de suveniruri cochete, old time, oameni amabili și relaxați. În timpul mesei ne-a magnetizat privirile o masă specială la care toate femeile purtau pălării roșii. Ele fac parte din Clubul ”Pălăriilor Roșii” o asociație cu femei nonconformiste cu vârste de peste 50 de ani ce activează în State din 1998. Azi se exprimă în 30 de țări prin... 20.000 de filiale. Membrii se reunesc periodic pentru a-și proiecta diverse activități caritabile dar și planuri de vacanță. Pălăriile fistichii, diferă ca model, singura comună fiind culoarea roșu aprins.
\r\nLU - hipopotamul devenit Cetățean de Onoare
\r\nCu întâlnirea pitorească rămasă în memorie ne-am continuat drumul spre Homosassa Spring Wildlife Park, loc diferit de restul și prin faptul că aici se oferă ocrotire și adăpost animalelor bolnave, bătrâne sau părăsite din diverse motive. Cu această informație am început, ghidați de voluntari, printre poveștile lui Yuma, un pui de panteră americană de numai un an. Am făcut cunoștință cu Lu, un hipopotam în vârstă de 55 de ani, cel mai vechi locuitor al parcului, declarat din 1991, Cetățean de Onoare al statului Florida. Nu glumim, e pe bune și se pune la experiențele pe care le-am adunat și fotografiat ! Cea mai tare întâlnire am avut-o cu niște creaturi uriașe care înoată liniștite în apele limpezi ale râului Homosassa. Se mișcă foarte lent, par pietre imense scufundate la malurile apei. Deși seamănă, nu sunt nici foci, nici morse! Sunt lamantini, dar americanii le spun manatees, care-și duc aici bătrânețile liniștite! Se vede cu ochiul liber, că prea mult răsfăț le strică, astfel că au fost necesare măsuri pentru o cură de slăbire pe bază doar de frunze de salată verde. Și manatees vor să dea bine la paradele subacvatice, mai ales că tot ritualul lor de înnot și hrănire poate fi urmărit de turiști dintr-un observator subacvatic amenajat special aici din...1964. Filme, fotografii, fascinația unor uriași care te privesc pașnici, cu ochi bânzi. Ghidul, o doamnă cu o vârstă respectabilă, a lucrat toată viața aici. A revenit, după pensionare, ca voluntar, și e foarte mândră că după orele acumulate aici se situează la Panoul de onoare al contributorilor, alături de personalități ce au contribuit la păstrarea acestui parc natural. Acum are în coordonare, atenție nu în subordine, un voluntar junior, pe Regan Schroeder, un puști care vine în toate vacanțele să învețe aici drumul respectabil al naturii. De la amândoi aflăm că în Florida, în apele calde ale Golfului Mexic trăiește unica populație de lamantini indieni (manatees) din lume, aproape 3400 de exemplare, specie protejată, aflată pe cale de dispariție.
\r\nELVIS, Manatees și Billy Crystal
\r\nDrumul ne duce mai departe: spre The Plantation on Crystal River, un complex hotelier încercuit de apele golfului Kings, cu venerabila vârstă de 50 de ani. Marketingul, în persoana energicei Terry Natwich, ne ia în primire pentru a ne etala tarife avantajoase dar și atuurile proprietății. Frumusețea locului și, mai ales atmosfera caldă, aproape patriarhală se înscriu în conceptul de ”lux, calm și voluptate”. Plimbarea cu barca pe Crystal River ne încarcă cu informații care sporesc valoarea zonei: în hotelul ”Port Paradise Resort”, cu o fațadă cromatică originală, a locuit Elvis Presley în 1961 când a filmat ”Fallow That Dream”; tot aici se află și casa lui Billy Crystal, al cărui nume de actor a fost inspirat de... Crystal River; în apele acestui râu își găsesc anual refugiul circa 500 de manatees (lamantini) care oferă o altă atracție unicat - aici găsiți singurul loc din America de Nord unde turiștii pot înota în absolută legalitate, alături de lamantini. Cu delfinii înoată poate toată lumea, dar cu aceste vietăți ai șansa să o faci dacă te scoli dimineața și, firește, ai ceva bani în buzunar. Unii dintre jurnaliștii prezenți au făcut-o! Alții s-au îndreptat către un alt parc celebru din Florida - Silver Spring. Zona, pe care ne-a bucurat să o revedem, este creditată drept cea mai veche destinație turistică a statului. Apa lacului impresionează prin limpezimea sa de cristal ce provine de la stratul freatic al Floridei ce asigură apa potabilă pentru locuitorii săi. Cercetările științifice arată că apa se primenește prin izvoarele freatice din adâncuri la fiecare... 2 secunde. Cam 460 de galoane de milioane de apă pe zi. Micile vaporașe, cu fundul de sticlă, construite retro sunt eco nu tulbură ecosistemul iar o craozieră este un bun prilej să cunoști comandanți de nave octogenari (Charlie Cypress este unul dintre acești tineri și... neliniștiți), voluntari, încântați să-ți relateze despre exemplarele de păsări ori maimuțe, despre faptul că aici s-au turnat scene subacvatice din filme celebre. Tarzan, ei cum să nu tresărim de plăcere!, ( cu Johnny Weissmuller și Maureen O’Sullivan prin 1939), Show-ul TV ”Sea Hunt” și ”Creature from the Black Lagoon” sunt doar o parte dintre producții.\r\nTURISM de 60 de milioane
\r\nDincolo de poezia naturii, Silver Springs State Park are și o importanță deosebită. El asigură peste 1000 de locuri de muncă și pompează în economia locală prin activitățile sale turistice, științifice, culturale circa 60 de milioane de dolari. În același timp în lupta pentru conservarea naturii și eradicarea poluării izvoarelor freatice își desfășoară activitatea Silver Springs Alliance, o forță civică ce-i reunește pe toți voluntarii din rezervațiile naturale acestui stat. Organizația își desfășoară activitatea animată de dragostea și respectul față de unicitatea și naturalețea lumii în care ne este dat să trăim.
\r\nPoate vă întrebați? Doar parcuri și rezervații, cam monoton nu? Dacă ați ști câte căruțe pline de atracții turistice mai avem! Gastronomice, oenologice, hipice, culturale. Din Florida, cu dragoste, și în numărul viitor.

E, se pare, un unicat european. Mai puțin cunoscut e fratele său ucrainean ”Tramvaiul din Carpați”, din Vyhoda (regiunea Ivano-Frankvisk).\r\nÎntre județul Maramureș și zona amintită e o aruncătură de băț de cam... 50 de kilometri. Ele au în comun două dintre ultimele trenulețe funcționale ce circulă pe linii cu ecartament îngust, un patrimoniu cultural și natural apărate de crestele Munților Carpați. Cea mai sustenabilă valorificare a acestora nu aparține, cu siguranță, exploatării industriale a lemnului ci industriei turistice.\r\n![\"Train](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Train-Valea-Vaserului-4.jpg\")
\r\n\r\nCînd vorbim de produse ce pot fi dezvoltate la nivel transfrontalier rețeta pare că va avea succes. Sunt aspecte la care se gândesc și specialiștii ucraineni de la ”Tourist Association of Ivano-Frankivsk Region”, organizație condusă de Roman Shevchyk, o mai veche cunoștință a revistei noastre. Programul transfrontalier ”Mocănițele din Carpați” se încheie chiar în această lună. El beneficiat de finanțare europeană și are ca parteneri Administrația de stat a regiunii, Consiliul Local al comunei Vyhoda și Administrația Rezervației Naturale Munții Maramureșului.\r\n\r\nMocănița de pe Valea Vaserului\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"4354,4353,4352,4351\"]\r\n\r\nToate amintirile întipărite în memorie se leagă de o experiență montană... exotică. Ruta forestieră pe care am străbătut-o are aproximativ 60 de kilometri dar traseul turistic este de circa 20 de kilometri până la stația Paltin. Calea ferată cu ecartament îngust (amenajată între 1924-1932, în perioada Imperiului Austro-Ungar) este parte dintr-un patrimoniu tehnic unic. Administrată de Căile Ferate Forestiere (CFF) Vișeul de Sus ea este considerată ultimul vestigiu funcțional pe care mai circulă trenuri trase de locomotive cu abur. Sunt încă folosite la transportul lemnului din munți. Cam în ultimii cinci ani activitățile turistice au început să devină o bună concurență a activităților industriale. Prin 2010 călătoreau pe Valea Vaserului și vizitau Gara, circa 18.000 de turiști. Anul trecut au sosit aici circa 30.000.\r\n\r\nO parte dintre curioși au venit din Germania, Italia, Austria, Ungaria, Franța, Polonia, Elveția. Dar și din Taiwan, Hong Kong, Ghana ori Islanda. După cum ne spun rangerșii Cristina și Vlad, de la Rezervația Naturală Munții Maramureșului, în acest an e posibil ca numărul lor să depășească 40.000. Mulți au călătorit cu garniturile turistice trase de locomotivele ”O&K” (a fost construită în 1910 și e cea mai veche din patrimoniu), ”Krauss” (1921), și alte 5 locomotive fabricate la Reșița între anii 1953-1955. Dacă ne raportăm la populația orașului Vișeul de Sus (circa 15.000 de locuitori), ne dăm seama că turismul poate aduce mari beneficii comunității locale. Și asta se vede cu ochiul liber. Au apărut spații de cazare moderne, hotelul ”Gabriela” (săli de conferințe, de evenimente, centru Spa etc) anunțând timpul unor alte generații de călători.\r\n\r\nEi au, de câteva săptămâni, ocazia să afle despre Mocăniță și Valea Vaserului și de pe platforma digitală a Google Cultural Institute, ce ofera accesul la patrimoniul cultural-istoric a celor mai importante locuri din lume. Călătoria durează circa 6-7 ore. Un bilet dus-întors costă echivalentul a 12 euro. Mai trebuie să știți că în 2011 a fost amplasat în Gara CFF Viseu singurul tren-hotel din Romania - Carpatia Express. Nu circulă, iar o noapte de cazare într-un compartiment dublu costă 64 de lei.\r\n\r\nTramvaiul de la Vyhoda\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"4358,4357,4356,4355\"]\r\n\r\nCu circa 3.500 de locuitori Vyhoda se prezintă ca un orășel de buzunar. Cu toate acestea a trecut prin vremuri grele. După ce a fost privatizată cu mari investitori Fabrica de prelucrare a lemnului a intrat în faliment. Cum? Numai ei știu! O asociație de oameni de afaceri ucraineni au repus-o pe picioare și de atunci lucrurile merg ca pe roate. Cel puțin așa susține Matseliukh Mykhailo. E primarul așezării din 1998. A fost reales la fiecare 4 ani. Circa 700 de locuitori lucrează la Fabrica de pal melaminat ”Uniplytu” și încă vreo sută la o întreprindere de lacuri și vopseluri.\r\n\r\nAdăugând pe cei din administrație, sistemul sanitar, învățământ, ne dăm seama că primarul spune adevărul: orașul e în căutare de forță de muncă. ”Tramvaiul din Carpați” are legătură cu toate acestea. El a fost folosit ca mijloc de transport până prin anii ‘60 când au fost introduse pentru transportul lemnului, funicularele forestiere. Practic, Mocănița din Carpați și-a încetat existența prin 1990. Linia cu ecartament îngust (770 milimetri) a fost construită de întreprinzătorul austriac Leopold Popper von Podgari în secolul al XIX-lea pentru a fi folosită la transportul materialelor lemnoase din munți către unitățile de prelucrare.\r\n\r\nPe la 1890, exista o linie ferată de 3 kilometri ce furniza materiale gaterului din comuna Vyhoda, primul din această parte a Carpaților. Mocănița era trasă pe atunci de cai. Mai târziu au fost înlocuiți de locomotive cu abur. Baronul austriac a făcut o avere fabuloasă și cu o parte din ea și-a construit în 1855 o reședință de vară. Chiar și când era în paragină, tot amintea de stilul vilelor elvețiene.\r\n\r\nProiectul ”Mocănițele din Carpați” a prevăzut și reconstruirea fostei case unde a locuit fondatorul austriac. Acum ea se învecinează cu Primăria și centrul orașului Vyhoda.

E, se pare, un unicat european. Mai puțin cunoscut e fratele său ucrainean ”Tramvaiul din Carpați”, din Vyhoda (regiunea Ivano-Frankvisk).\r\nÎntre județul Maramureș și zona amintită e o aruncătură de băț de cam... 50 de kilometri. Ele au în comun două dintre ultimele trenulețe funcționale ce circulă pe linii cu ecartament îngust, un patrimoniu cultural și natural apărate de crestele Munților Carpați. Cea mai sustenabilă valorificare a acestora nu aparține, cu siguranță, exploatării industriale a lemnului ci industriei turistice.\r\n\r\nCînd vorbim de produse ce pot fi dezvoltate la nivel transfrontalier rețeta pare că va avea succes. Sunt aspecte la care se gândesc și specialiștii ucraineni de la ”Tourist Association of Ivano-Frankivsk Region”, organizație condusă de Roman Shevchyk, o mai veche cunoștință a revistei noastre. Programul transfrontalier ”Mocănițele din Carpați” se încheie chiar în această lună. El beneficiat de finanțare europeană și are ca parteneri Administrația de stat a regiunii, Consiliul Local al comunei Vyhoda și Administrația Rezervației Naturale Munții Maramureșului.\r\n\r\nMocănița de pe Valea Vaserului\r\n\r\nToate amintirile întipărite în memorie se leagă de o experiență montană... exotică. Ruta forestieră pe care am străbătut-o are aproximativ 60 de kilometri dar traseul turistic este de circa 20 de kilometri până la stația Paltin. Calea ferată cu ecartament îngust (amenajată între 1924-1932, în perioada Imperiului Austro-Ungar) este parte dintr-un patrimoniu tehnic unic. Administrată de Căile Ferate Forestiere (CFF) Vișeul de Sus ea este considerată ultimul vestigiu funcțional pe care mai circulă trenuri trase de locomotive cu abur. Sunt încă folosite la transportul lemnului din munți. Cam în ultimii cinci ani activitățile turistice au început să devină o bună concurență a activităților industriale. Prin 2010 călătoreau pe Valea Vaserului și vizitau Gara, circa 18.000 de turiști. Anul trecut au sosit aici circa 30.000.\r\n\r\nO parte dintre curioși au venit din Germania, Italia, Austria, Ungaria, Franța, Polonia, Elveția. Dar și din Taiwan, Hong Kong, Ghana ori Islanda. După cum ne spun rangerșii Cristina și Vlad, de la Rezervația Naturală Munții Maramureșului, în acest an e posibil ca numărul lor să depășească 40.000. Mulți au călătorit cu garniturile turistice trase de locomotivele ”O&K” (a fost construită în 1910 și e cea mai veche din patrimoniu), ”Krauss” (1921), și alte 5 locomotive fabricate la Reșița între anii 1953-1955. Dacă ne raportăm la populația orașului Vișeul de Sus (circa 15.000 de locuitori), ne dăm seama că turismul poate aduce mari beneficii comunității locale. Și asta se vede cu ochiul liber. Au apărut spații de cazare moderne, hotelul ”Gabriela” (săli de conferințe, de evenimente, centru Spa etc) anunțând timpul unor alte generații de călători.\r\n\r\nEi au, de câteva săptămâni, ocazia să afle despre Mocăniță și Valea Vaserului și de pe platforma digitală a Google Cultural Institute, ce ofera accesul la patrimoniul cultural-istoric a celor mai importante locuri din lume. Călătoria durează circa 6-7 ore. Un bilet dus-întors costă echivalentul a 12 euro. Mai trebuie să știți că în 2011 a fost amplasat în Gara CFF Viseu singurul tren-hotel din România - Carpatia Express. Nu circulă, iar o noapte de cazare într-un compartiment dublu costă 64 de lei.\r\n\r\n\r\nTramvaiul de la Vyhoda\r\n\r\nCu circa 3.500 de locuitori Vyhoda se prezintă ca un orășel de buzunar. Cu toate acestea a trecut prin vremuri grele. După ce a fost privatizată cu mari investitori Fabrica de prelucrare a lemnului a intrat în faliment. Cum? Numai ei știu! O asociație de oameni de afaceri ucraineni au repus-o pe picioare și de atunci lucrurile merg ca pe roate. Cel puțin așa susține Matseliukh Mykhailo. E primarul așezării din 1998. A fost reales la fiecare 4 ani. Circa 700 de locuitori lucrează la Fabrica de pal melaminat ”Uniplytu” și încă vreo sută la o întreprindere de lacuri și vopseluri.\r\n\r\nAdăugând pe cei din administrație, sistemul sanitar, învățământ, ne dăm seama că primarul spune adevărul: orașul e în căutare de forță de muncă. ”Tramvaiul din Carpați” are legătură cu toate acestea. El a fost folosit ca mijloc de transport până prin anii ‘60 când au fost introduse pentru transportul lemnului, funicularele forestiere. Practic, Mocănița din Carpați și-a încetat existența prin 1990. Linia cu ecartament îngust (770 milimetri) a fost construită de întreprinzătorul austriac Leopold Popper von Podgari în secolul al XIX-lea pentru a fi folosită la transportul materialelor lemnoase din munți către unitățile de prelucrare.\r\n\r\nPe la 1890, exista o linie ferată de 3 kilometri ce furniza materiale gaterului din comuna Vyhoda, primul din această parte a Carpaților. Mocănița era trasă pe atunci de cai. Mai târziu au fost înlocuiți de locomotive cu abur. Baronul austriac a făcut o avere fabuloasă și cu o parte din ea și-a construit în 1855 o reședință de vară. Chiar și când era în paragină, tot amintea de stilul vilelor elvețiene.\r\n\r\nProiectul ”Mocănițele din Carpați” a prevăzut și reconstruirea fostei case unde a locuit fondatorul austriac. Acum ea se învecinează cu Primăria și centrul orașului Vyhoda. În clădirea restaurată va funcționa ”Centrul patrimoniului mocăniței din Vyhoda”, care alături de Tramvaiul din Carpați va deveni atracția turistică nr.1 a regiunii. Lucrările sunt susținute de conducerea Fabricii ”Uniplytu”ce și-a propus să finanțeze și amenajarea unei gări turistice dotată cu toate facilitățile. ”Am învățat foarte multe de la colegii noștri români.

Ca profesoară de turism m-am gândit să vă stârnesc interesul cu un Top 10 național. A fost o selecție dificilă. Pentru că eu cred că România deține cel puțin 100 de locuri ce merită vizitate într-o viață.\r\n\r\n 1 – București – capitala vieții, culorilor și istoriei\r\n\r\nÎn 2015 capitala a împlinit 556 de ani de la prima atestare documentară. Bucureștiul, a trecut prin schimbări majore de imagine, de la un secol la altul. Am început cu București, ca fiind primul loc pe care trebuie să îl vezi, pentru că reunește locuri pentru toate gusturile. Bucharest City Tour - este un proiect care are succes și oferă posibilitatea turiștilor să vadă într-un tur cu autocarul, cele mai interesante locuri din oraș. Printre ele - Muzeul Național al Satului \"Dimitrie Gusti\" - unul dintre cele mai mari muzee etnografice situate în aer liber din Europa; Muzeul de Istorie Naturală \"Grigore Antipa\" – arată dinamica vieții pe pământ; Ateneul Român - simbolul culturii nationale; Palatul Regal – Muzeul Național de Arta al țării noastre; Palatul CEC - una dintre primele instituții bancare ale României; Palatul Parlamentului – un edificiu grandios, cea mai mare clădire administrativă din lume etc.\r\n\r\n 2 – Sibiul – citadela culturii\r\n![\"Rom](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Rom-Sibiu12.jpg\")

Poate nu știați: Sibiul a urcat pe locul 8 în topul celor mai frumoase locuri din Europa și este cunoscut datorită frumuseţilor naturale dar și a istoriei sale plină de diversitate culturală. În 2007, Sibiul a fost Capitală europeană a culturii, iar până în 2020, va ramâne singurul oraș românesc ce s-a bucurat de o asemenea nominalizare și recunoaștere.\r\n\r\n 3 - Munții Carpați\r\n\r\nLanțul muntos ocupă un loc important în preferințele turistilor români sau străini. Munții Carpați formează un arc ce acoperă 31% din suprafața României. Carpații înseamnă sute de kilometri de frumusețe naturală, nealterată încă de civilizație, peisaje de vis și o abundență de floră și faună. Traseele montane unice (Transfăgărășan și Transalpina), vârfurile înalte bune pentru escaladat, peșterile subterane, defileele spectaculoase și lacurile vulcanice, speciile de animale și plante pe cale de dispariție, sunt câteva dintre atracțiile care pun în mișcare milioane de turiști în fiecare an.\r\n\r\n 4 – Litoralul Mării Negre\r\n\r\nVara, e destinația numărul 1.

BUCUREŞTIUL e pe 81
\nPotrivit studiului anual MasterCard Global Destinations Cities Index, GDCI. Capitala României se situează pe locul 81 în Topul celor mai vizitate 132 de orașe din lume. Față de anul trecut metropola a urcat o poziție, până pe 28, la nivel european. Conform estimărilor în acest an Bucureștiul va fi vizitat de 1,02 milioane de străini, în creștere cu 5,2%, față de 2014. Cheltuielile acestora sunt estimate la 287 milioane de dolari, cu 2,4% mai mult decât în anul precedent. În medie, un vizitator a cheltuit în București anul trecut 281 de dolari.\n\n
Primele 5 locuri revin Londrei, pentru a cincea oara în 7 ani, care se estimează că va primi 18,82 milioane de vizitatori internaționali; Bangkok (18,24 milioane); Paris (16,06 milioane; Dubai (14,26 milioane), respectiv Istanbul (12,56 milioane). Potrivit aceluiași studiu, în 2015, se estimează că aproximativ 383 de milioane de călătorii internaționale cu ședere peste noapte vor fi făcute în cele 132 de orașe analizate. Turiștii străini vor cheltui circa 360 de miliarde de dolari.
\nEGIPTUL ȘI-A DESCHIS BIROU DE PROMOVARE
\nAutoritatea Turistică a Egiptului și-a inaugurat de curând un nou Oficiu de promovare turistică la Praga. Acesta este condus de către domnul Mohamed Desouky, care a fost anterior directorul Oficiului Egiptean de Turism la Viena. Noul birou are misiunea de a coordona promovarea fabuloaselor atracții turistice ale acestei țări pe piețele din: Republica Cehă, Ucraina, Ungaria, Slovacia, Serbia, Georgia și România.
\nUBUNTU ȘI NAȚIUNEA-CURCUBEU
\n“Cultura noastră este moştenirea noastră. Identificarea, promovarea şi păstrarea moştenirii vii a Africii de Sud” a fost tema Săptămânii Culturii Africane UBUNTU.\n\nEa a fost organizată de către Ambasada Republicii Africa de Sud din Bucureşti în parteneriat cu Biblioteca “Ion Creanga” în ultima decadă a lunii septembrie. În această perioadă toţi sud-africanii sărbătoresc cultura vibrantă şi diversitatea credinţelor şi tradiţiilor lor. De asemenea 24 septembrie este data la care “naţiunea-curcubeu” sărbătoreşte oficial Ziua Patrimoniului Cultural. ”Suntem o ţară unică, cu 11 limbi oficiale, un Imn Naţional care se cântă în 5 limbi, ceea ce demonstrează bogăţia şi dinamismul moştenirii noastre culturale” - spunea Ambasadorul Republicii Africa de Sud în România, doamna Thenjiwe Mtintso. Manifestările de la București au reunit proiecţii de filme sud-africane, lecturi din romanele unor autori sud-africani laureaţi cu Premiul Nobel, expoziţii tematice, prezentare de costume tradiţionale şi degustare de vinuri etc. \nOANA-RUXANDRA POP ESTE NOUL DIRECTOR...\n\n
\n...al Oficiului Național al Austriei la București. Timp de mai bine de 7 ani Austria s-a mulțumit doar să strângă banii de pe piața turistică românească (900.000 de înnoptări per an) dar s-a preocupat prea puțin de promovarea acestei excelente destinații de vacanță și business turism. Se pare că, în sfârșit, a găsit un director plin de inițiativă, mai dinamic, care să se ocupe serios de acest lucru. Oana-Ruxandra Pop a lucrat aproape 10 ani în domeniul turismului și comunicării acumulând experiență la companii ca GTZ, Dertour Romania, Karpaten Turism și Explore Travel. ”Ne bucurăm că am reușit să includem în echipa noastră o colaboratoare atât de implicată în mediul de afaceri și cu experiență practică” - a declarat Emanuel Lehner-Telic, Managerul Regional al Oficiului Național de Turism al Austriei pentru Europa Centrală și de Est.

\nBĂILE FELIX - Lotus de 5 stele\n\n
Eveniment pe segmentul turistic balnear. La începutul lunii a intrat pe piața hotelieră primul complex de sănătate de 5 stele din România. Investiția, care s-a ridicat la peste 29 de milioane de euro, aparține companiei Turism Lotus Felix SA, ai cărei acționari sunt SIF Transilvania Brașov, SIF Oltenia Craiova, SC Turism Felix SA, SIF Muntenia București și SIF Moldova Bacău.\n\n
Lotus Therm Spa&Luxury Resort din Băile Felix, care valorifică amplasamentul a două hoteluri vechi, modernizate în ultimele decenii - vine astăzi cu o ofertă aliniată la standardele internaționale din domeniul balnear. Complexul promovează o capacitate de 180 de camere și 262 de locuri de cazare, 79 camere single, 37 camere double, 3 camere pentru persoane cu dizabilități, 39 apartamente, 8 suite și 6 apartamente speciale – VIP, Honeymoon, Gold, Blue. Lotus Resort se întinde pe o suprafață de aproximativ 47.000 metri pătrați și deține un aquapark inedit, unic în România - Felixarium pe care l-am prezentat în momentul lansării proiectului. El include 14 piscine interioare și exterioare cu apă termală, jacuzzi, cascade, doua tobogane, Baruri tematice, teren de beach volley, centrul Gold Spa, cameră de gheață etc.
\nO asemenea investiție reprezintă o mare provocare pentru viitorii turiști. Ce servicii și beneficii noi vor avea cei care vor opta pentru acest complex? Florian Serac, directorul general al societății din Băile Felix este de părere că ”zona de agrement în care am investit circa 11 milioane de euro, va fi o mare supriză. Două treimi din ea este acoperită. Acoperișurile sunt rabatabile în formă de semicerc. Ea poate funcționa excelent deci și pe perioada de iarnă. În cadrul Centrului se află unicul aparat Tecar Terapia din regiunea de Nord-Vest a României cu ajutorul căruia se efectuează o terapie neinvazivă, antiinflamatorie și regenerativă foarte utilă pentru sportivii profesioniștii. Procedura înjumătățește timpul de recuperare. Ne gândim să introducem și serviciile all inclusive înainte de 2020. Eu estimez că investiția va fi recuperată în circa 15 ani”.

La ora aceasta în Capitala României funcționează circa zece Hoteluri Boutique.

Conceptul se dovedește atractiv pentru turiștii care caută mereu ceva nou, mai intim, mai cald, dar și pentru proprietari. Potențialul de creștere este mare în condițiile în care gradul mediul de ocupare depășește uneori 70%. Cifra de afaceri a unui asemenea hotel poate crește și cu 20% pe an.

Lotus Therm Spa&Luxury Resort din Băile Felix, care valorifică amplasamentul a două hoteluri vechi, modernizate în ultimele decenii - vine astăzi cu o ofertă aliniată la standardele internaționale din domeniul balnear. Complexul promovează o capacitate de 180 de camere și 262 de locuri de cazare, 79 camere single, 37 camere double, 3 camere pentru persoane cu dizabilități, 39 apartamente, 8 suite și 6 apartamente speciale – VIP, Honeymoon, Gold, Blue. Lotus Resort se întinde pe o suprafață de aproximativ 47.000 metri pătrați și deține un aquapark inedit, unic în România - Felixarium pe care l-am prezentat în momentul lansării proiectului. El include 14 piscine interioare și exterioare cu apă termală, jacuzzi, cascade, doua tobogane, Baruri tematice, teren de beach volley, centrul Gold Spa, cameră de gheață etc.
\r\nO asemenea investiție reprezintă o mare provocare pentru viitorii turiști. Ce servicii și beneficii noi vor avea cei care vor opta pentru acest complex? Florian Serac, directorul general al societății din Băile Felix este de părere că ”zona de agrement în care am investit circa 11 milioane de euro, va fi o mare supriză. Două treimi din ea este acoperită. Acoperișurile sunt rabatabile în formă de semicerc. Ea poate funcționa excelent deci și pe perioada de iarnă. În cadrul Centrului se află unicul aparat Tecar Terapia din regiunea de Nord-Vest a României cu ajutorul căruia se efectuează o terapie neinvazivă, antiinflamatorie și regenerativă foarte utilă pentru sportivii profesioniștii. Procedura înjumătățește timpul de recuperare. Ne gândim să introducem și serviciile all inclusive înainte de 2020. Eu estimez că investiția va fi recuperată în circa 15 ani”.
\r\n3 hoteluri din România în WTA
\r\nInterContinental București, Epoque și JW Marriott Bucharest sunt cele trei hoteluri din România care au fost distinse cu premii la celebra ceremonie World Travel Awards 2015, trofeu denumit “Oscarul industriei turistice”. InterContinentalul a câștigat pentru al doilea an premiul “Hotelul de Business al Anului” (Romania`s Leading Business Hotel), Epoque și-a adjudecat premiul la categoria „Romania`s Leading Boutique Hotel” iar JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel a fost desemnat câștigator la secțiunea „Romania`s Leading Hotel”.\r\n\r\n
Se poate spune că a fost un an bun pentru lanțul InterContinental deoarece la recenta ceremonie au mai fost premiate încă 5 hoteluri din Europa - InterContinental Resort Berchtesgaden, InterContinental Budapest, InterContinental Davos, InterContinental Malta, respectiv InterContinental Paris Le Grand.\r\n\r\n
SIET - intrăm și noi în rândul lumii
\r\nÎn sfârșit, după mai bine de doi ani de amânări Sistemului Informatic Integrat de Evidență a Turiștilor (SIET), devine operațional. Conform informațiilor de pe site-ul Ministerului Economiei, Comerțului și Turismului (MECT) el va fi gestionat și auditat de către Serviciul de Telecomunicații Speciale (STS), în baza unui protocol de colaborare încheiat cu Autoritatea Naționala pentru Turism (ANT). Pentru furnizarea datelor statistice privind circulația turistică, SIET stocheaza datele cu caracter personal colectate și introduse de operatorii economici, conform modelului fișei de anunțare a sosirii și plecării turiștilor. La datele SIET vor avea acces mai multe instituții, precum ANT, Ministerul Administrației și Internelor, prin structurile Poliției Române, dar și operatorii economici din turism.
\r\nBUCUREȘTI - Boutique să fie\r\n\r\n
La ora aceasta în Capitala României funcționează circa zece Hoteluri Boutique. Ele contribuie la diversificarea ofertei turistice cu spații și servicii personalizate care pot fideliza rapid călătorii care sosesc în România. Conform specialiștilor din domeniu asemenea investiții - pot depăși 2 milioane de euro. Boutique-hotelurile sunt deschise în clădiri istorice restaurate, cu o capacitate cuprinsă între 7 și 12 camere. Conceptul se dovedește atractiv pentru turiștii care caută mereu ceva nou, mai intim, mai cald, dar și pentru proprietari. Potențialul de creștere este mare în condițiile în care gradul mediul de ocupare depășește uneori 70%. Cifra de afaceri a unui asemenea hotel poate crește și cu 20% pe an.

\r\n\r\n\r\n- Care este viziunea Statelor Unite asupra turismului din România?\r\n\r\n- România reprezintă pentru mulţi dintre americani, un mic colţ sălbatic în mijlocul Europei. Toţi cei cu care am purtat discuţii în cadrul acestei misiuni economice, mi-au confirmat faptul că au încredere în potenţialul turistic al ţării noastre şi în viitorul acestei ramuri economice.\r\n\r\n- Este România o destinaţie turistică potrivită pentru turiştii americani?\r\n\r\n- Fără îndoială că DA! România are foarte multe de oferit oricărui tip de turist, de la cei pasionaţi de munte şi de vacanţe active cu rucsacul în spate, până la cei care râvnesc să descopere profunzimea tradiţiilor şi obiceiurilor nealterate din ţara noastră. Ca să nu mai spunem de Delta Dunării, care a devenit un adevărat magnet pentru toţi turiştii străini. \r\n\r\n- Aţi avut întâlniri cu reprezentanți ai mediului de afaceri din Statele Unite. Ce idei s-au evidențiat în timpul sesiunilor de dezbateri?\r\n\r\n- Ȋn cadrul Misiunii Economice, am întâlnit o serie de specialiști ai companiilor care dezvoltă softuri în industria turistică. Dar şi reprezentanți ai unor asociaţii profesionale, cum este de pildă United States Tour Association (USTA). Aceasta este cel mai mare organism care înglobează principalele agenţii de turism touroperatoare din America. Cu toţii s-au arătat interesaţi de colaborări cu companii din turismul românesc şi deschişi atât cu privire la turismul de incoming către România, dar şi de outgoing spre America de Nord, Mexic sau zona Caraibelor.\r\n\r\nDIANA PĂȘCUȚ\r\n\r\n ','Marius Pandel: ”România este o destinație interesantă pentru americani !”, INTERVIU nr. 139','','inherit','open','open','','4293-revision-v1','','','2016-03-14 12:02:02','2016-03-14 10:02:02','',4293,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2016/03/14/4293-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4337,1,'2016-03-14 12:03:16','2016-03-14 10:03:16','','Emirate Arab 036','','inherit','open','open','','emirate-arab-036','','','2016-03-14 12:03:16','2016-03-14 10:03:16','',4296,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Emirate-Arab-036.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4338,1,'2016-03-14 12:03:17','2016-03-14 10:03:17','','Emirate Arab 038','','inherit','open','open','','emirate-arab-038','','','2016-03-14 12:03:17','2016-03-14 10:03:17','',4296,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Emirate-Arab-038.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4339,1,'2016-03-14 12:03:18','2016-03-14 10:03:18','','Emirate Arab 206','','inherit','open','open','','emirate-arab-206','','','2016-03-14 12:03:18','2016-03-14 10:03:18','',4296,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Emirate-Arab-206.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4340,1,'2016-03-14 12:03:19','2016-03-14 10:03:19','','Emirate Arab expo','','inherit','open','open','','emirate-arab-expo','','','2016-03-14 12:03:19','2016-03-14 10:03:19','',4296,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Emirate-Arab-expo.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4341,1,'2016-03-14 12:03:27','2016-03-14 10:03:27','”Și când se va termina petrolul, din ce veți trăi? Din turism !” Ne aflam la o conferință de presă în Abu Dhabi. Puțini dintre jurnaliștii prezenți au crezut în acel răspuns. El era oferit, în urmă cu mai bine de 20 de ani, de unul dintre liderii Emiratelor Arabe Unite. Azi declarația a fost mult depășită de realitate. Banii se conjugă cu un singur verb - a investi! Modelul Dubai-ului a fost preluat și de alte țări din Orientul Mijlociu și Africa de Nord (MENA).\r\n

DUBAI - Întreabă de Burj Khalifa
\r\nDubai-ul este o destinație turistică de lux. Dar este pregătit să absoarbă și bugetele medii. Arabian Travel Market (ATM) a organizat în acest an o secțiune dedicată acestor tipuri de consumatori. Actorii din industria turistică s-au întâlnit cu cumpărătorii de produse turistice de lux din întreaga lume. Dar și cu touroperatorii interesați de noile investiții hoteliere care le permit, în anumite perioade ale anului, să promoveze pachete foarte atractive. Dezbaterile între participanți s-au lăsat și cu un simpozion dar și cu un sondaj efectuat în rândul a peste 1.000 de respondenți. Pentru ce veniți ori reveniți în Dubai ? Pe primul loc în preferințele lor s-a situat motivația luxului, care pare să-și aibă reședința în această parte a lumii. 69% dintre călătorii chestionați au agreat ideea că turismul de lux începe cu hoteluri cu un standard minim de 5 stele. Majoritatea au avut în ultimele 12 luni două vacanțe de lux în zonă, ceea ce asigură creșterea cererii. S-a remarcat și ideea că definiția luxului e relativă. Ea este strâns legată de perspectiva turistului, iar lanțurile hoteliere îi ”cheamă” cu branduri celebre dedicate acestui tip de clientele. Astfel interpretarea luxului reprezintă o cale spre succes. Ce vor să primească oamenii bogați contra sumelor exorbitante pe care le cheltuiesc în Dubai? Camere cu vederi frumoase, încântătoare, restaurante pline de rafinament, servicii dedicate și un ambient pe măsură. Nici nu cer prea mult! În plus, peste 61% dintre respondenți au declarat că ei călătoresc în familie, la recomandarea prietenilor. Un sejur are o medie de 5,1 nopți, iar cheltuielile de persoană se ridică la... 8310 dolari.
\r\nRețeta absorbirii cu succes a acestor bani pare foarte simplă! Dar trebuie să ști să o aplici. Investițiile în turism, pe termen lung, au efecte... miraculoase. Celebra construcție Burj Khalifa (828 de metri) și fântânile - cînd dansatoare, când cântătoare -, atrag anual peste 80 de milioane de vizitatori, depășind el singur numărul de turiști care frecventează New York-ul. Dubai Mall a devenit prima destinație mondială de shopping. Anul trecut, conform portalului online Statista, au sosit în Dubai 11,9 milioane de vizitatori. Iar în 2020, când aici va fi găzduită World Expo, Al Marktoum International Airport - ce se află în plină expansiune -, estimează că va primi în jur de 98 de milioane de pasageri.
\r\nQATAR - Business și fotbal
\r\nPoate n-o să credeți! Dar în Qatar, țară considerată un importat nod turistic al Orientului, dezvoltatorii au în derulare nu mai puțin de 117 proiecte de investiții. Pentru a face și mai atractiv acest nod au fost accelerate lucrările la terminarea Aeroportului Internațional Hamad, ceea ce va permite Qatar Airways să-și extindă rețelele de zbor în și dinspre Europa. Deocamdată doar 15% dintre turiști provin din Europa, grosul circulației fiind furnizat de către țările asiatice și cele din Golf. Alte proiectele turistice ce ating cifra de 8,5 miliarde de dolari, sunt concentrate pe concepte ca: Doha Festival City, Doha Convention Centre, Mall of Qatar, Doha Zoo, Lusail Museum, Katara Towers și desigur stadionul pe care se vor desfășura o parte din meciurile FIFA World Cup în 2022. Conform Qatar Tourism Authority (QTA) industria turistică generează peste 61.000 de locuri de muncă care au oferit suportul pentru 2,8 milioane de vizitatori în 2014. Aceștia au lăsat la rândul lor în Qatar 7,6 miliarde de dolari, în creștere față de anul precedent. Rata de ocupare - 73% - oferă industriei toate motivele de optimism mai ales că locomotiva acesteia este turismul de lux.
\r\nKUWAIT - Mai mult decât o destinație City Break
\r\nÎn 2014 au sosit aici doar 270.000 de turiști străini. Dar în planurile de dezvoltare economică care sunt desenate în cicluri de cinci ani, peste 10 ani sunt așteptați circa 440.000. Pentru aceasta statul kuwaitian și-a propus să aloce resurse importante pentru crearea unei infrastructuri turistice moderne, demne de cele mai îndrăznețe proiecte futuriste. În total este vorba de 13 miliarde de dolari. O parte dintre aceștia vor contribui la construcția unui mare terminal de pasageri pe Aeroportul Internațional din Kuwait ce urmează a fi dat în folosință în 2016. Un alt proiect are în centrul său construcția unor rețele de metrou cu o lungime de 160 de kilometri. El va fi conectat în final cu o rețea feroviară ce străbate peste 510 kilometri. Alte investiții de top sunt Abdulla Al Salem Cultural Centre (aproximativ 416 milioane de dolari); Al Kout Mall (206 milioane); Jaber Al Ahmed Olympic City (200 milioane ); The Avenue (150 milioane) etc.
\r\nPe segmentul hotelier până la sfârșitul acestui an este așteptată o creștere cu 30% a numărului de locuri de cazare (aproximativ 10.000 de noi camere). În prezent călătorii au la dispoziție în acest stat peste 7250 de locuri de cazare. Încă 7 hoteluri aflate în construcție vor aduce un plus de aproape 1960 de camere. Rata medie de ocupare consemnată anul trecut de către compania STR Global a fost de aproape 52% iar cheltuielile per noapte/turist se ridică la circa 253 de dolari. Conform studiilor de marketing majoritatea vizitatorilor vin din Emirate și din țările limitrofe așa explicându-se de ce deocamdată Kuwait-ul este preponderent o destinație de city-break. Se înțelege că ambițiile sunt mult mai mari și de aceea din investițiile totale amintite 2 miliarde de dolari vor fi pompați în infrastructura turistică.
\r\nAlte țări, alte tendințe, luna viitoare!

\nSurpriză mare. Florida are zeci de alte provocări turistice pe care le-am testat la fața locului. Bine ați venit așadar în ”Florida...The Real”. Aici activează de 75 de ani o Asociație a celor peste 180 de rezervații și parcuri naturale - Florida State Parks. Întregul patrimoniu natural este supravegheat, protejat, dezvoltat și oferit turiștilor de miile de voluntari care lucrează în zone promovate ca destinații unicat. Spre unele dintre ele ne-am îndreptat într-un info-tour oferit de către International Pow Wow Orlando (IPW).
\nOLD TIME și Clubul PĂLĂRIILOR ROȘII
\nAm lăsat în urma noastră orașul via Citrus County, îndreptându-ne spre celebrul ”Ellie Schiller Homosassa Spring Wildlife State Park”. Prima stație obligatorie a reprezentat-o un restaurant faimos prin părțile locului. ”Mc Leod House Bistro” e un local istoric cu care iese în față, de câte ori au ocazia oamenii ce-și duc viața în Inverness - Citrus. Clădirea veche de peste 100 de ani e înconjurată de case ca din povești, alei cu stejari seculari uriași, magazine de suveniruri cochete, old time, oameni amabili și relaxați. În timpul mesei ne-a magnetizat privirile o masă specială la care toate femeile purtau pălării roșii. Ele fac parte din Clubul ”Pălăriilor Roșii” o asociație cu femei nonconformiste cu vârste de peste 50 de ani ce activează în State din 1998. Azi se exprimă în 30 de țări prin... 20.000 de filiale. Membrii se reunesc periodic pentru a-și proiecta diverse activități caritabile dar și planuri de vacanță. Pălăriile fistichii, diferă ca model, singura comună fiind culoarea roșu aprins.
\nLU - hipopotamul devenit Cetățean de Onoare
\nCu întâlnirea pitorească rămasă în memorie ne-am continuat drumul spre Homosassa Spring Wildlife Park, loc diferit de restul și prin faptul că aici se oferă ocrotire și adăpost animalelor bolnave, bătrâne sau părăsite din diverse motive. Cu această informație am început, ghidați de voluntari, printre poveștile lui Yuma, un pui de panteră americană de numai un an. Am făcut cunoștință cu Lu, un hipopotam în vârstă de 55 de ani, cel mai vechi locuitor al parcului, declarat din 1991, Cetățean de Onoare al statului Florida. Nu glumim, e pe bune și se pune la experiențele pe care le-am adunat și fotografiat ! Cea mai tare întâlnire am avut-o cu niște creaturi uriașe care înoată liniștite în apele limpezi ale râului Homosassa. Se mișcă foarte lent, par pietre imense scufundate la malurile apei. Deși seamănă, nu sunt nici foci, nici morse! Sunt lamantini, dar americanii le spun manatees, care-și duc aici bătrânețile liniștite! Se vede cu ochiul liber, că prea mult răsfăț le strică, astfel că au fost necesare măsuri pentru o cură de slăbire pe bază doar de frunze de salată verde. Și manatees vor să dea bine la paradele subacvatice, mai ales că tot ritualul lor de înnot și hrănire poate fi urmărit de turiști dintr-un observator subacvatic amenajat special aici din...1964. Filme, fotografii, fascinația unor uriași care te privesc pașnici, cu ochi bânzi. Ghidul, o doamnă cu o vârstă respectabilă, a lucrat toată viața aici. A revenit, după pensionare, ca voluntar, și e foarte mândră că după orele acumulate aici se situează la Panoul de onoare al contributorilor, alături de personalități ce au contribuit la păstrarea acestui parc natural. Acum are în coordonare, atenție nu în subordine, un voluntar junior, pe Regan Schroeder, un puști care vine în toate vacanțele să învețe aici drumul respectabil al naturii. De la amândoi aflăm că în Florida, în apele calde ale Golfului Mexic trăiește unica populație de lamantini indieni (manatees) din lume, aproape 3400 de exemplare, specie protejată, aflată pe cale de dispariție.
\nELVIS, Manatees și Billy Crystal
\nDrumul ne duce mai departe: spre The Plantation on Crystal River, un complex hotelier încercuit de apele golfului Kings, cu venerabila vârstă de 50 de ani. Marketingul, în persoana energicei Terry Natwich, ne ia în primire pentru a ne etala tarife avantajoase dar și atuurile proprietății. Frumusețea locului și, mai ales atmosfera caldă, aproape patriarhală se înscriu în conceptul de ”lux, calm și voluptate”. Plimbarea cu barca pe Crystal River ne încarcă cu informații care sporesc valoarea zonei: în hotelul ”Port Paradise Resort”, cu o fațadă cromatică originală, a locuit Elvis Presley în 1961 când a filmat ”Fallow That Dream”; tot aici se află și casa lui Billy Crystal, al cărui nume de actor a fost inspirat de... Crystal River; în apele acestui râu își găsesc anual refugiul circa 500 de manatees (lamantini) care oferă o altă atracție unicat - aici găsiți singurul loc din America de Nord unde turiștii pot înota în absolută legalitate, alături de lamantini. Cu delfinii înoată poate toată lumea, dar cu aceste vietăți ai șansa să o faci dacă te scoli dimineața și, firește, ai ceva bani în buzunar. Unii dintre jurnaliștii prezenți au făcut-o! Alții s-au îndreptat către un alt parc celebru din Florida - Silver Spring. Zona, pe care ne-a bucurat să o revedem, este creditată drept cea mai veche destinație turistică a statului. Apa lacului impresionează prin limpezimea sa de cristal ce provine de la stratul freatic al Floridei ce asigură apa potabilă pentru locuitorii săi. Cercetările științifice arată că apa se primenește prin izvoarele freatice din adâncuri la fiecare... 2 secunde. Cam 460 de galoane de milioane de apă pe zi. Micile vaporașe, cu fundul de sticlă, construite retro sunt eco nu tulbură ecosistemul iar o craozieră este un bun prilej să cunoști comandanți de nave octogenari (Charlie Cypress este unul dintre acești tineri și... neliniștiți), voluntari, încântați să-ți relateze despre exemplarele de păsări ori maimuțe, despre faptul că aici s-au turnat scene subacvatice din filme celebre. Tarzan, ei cum să nu tresărim de plăcere!, ( cu Johnny Weissmuller și Maureen O’Sullivan prin 1939), Show-ul TV ”Sea Hunt” și ”Creature from the Black Lagoon” sunt doar o parte dintre producții.\nTURISM de 60 de milioane
\nDincolo de poezia naturii, Silver Springs State Park are și o importanță deosebită. El asigură peste 1000 de locuri de muncă și pompează în economia locală prin activitățile sale turistice, științifice, culturale circa 60 de milioane de dolari. În același timp în lupta pentru conservarea naturii și eradicarea poluării izvoarelor freatice își desfășoară activitatea Silver Springs Alliance, o forță civică ce-i reunește pe toți voluntarii din rezervațiile naturale acestui stat. Organizația își desfășoară activitatea animată de dragostea și respectul față de unicitatea și naturalețea lumii în care ne este dat să trăim.
\nPoate vă întrebați? Doar parcuri și rezervații, cam monoton nu? Dacă ați ști câte căruțe pline de atracții turistice mai avem! Gastronomice, oenologice, hipice, culturale. Din Florida, cu dragoste, și în numărul viitor.

Întregul patrimoniu natural este supravegheat, protejat, dezvoltat și oferit turiștilor de miile de voluntari care lucrează în zone promovate ca destinații unicat. Spre unele dintre ele ne-am îndreptat într-un info-tour oferit de către International Pow Wow Orlando (IPW).\r\n

OLD TIME și Clubul PĂLĂRIILOR ROȘII
\r\nAm lăsat în urma noastră orașul via Citrus County, îndreptându-ne spre celebrul ”Ellie Schiller Homosassa Spring Wildlife State Park”. Prima stație obligatorie a reprezentat-o un restaurant faimos prin părțile locului. ”Mc Leod House Bistro” e un local istoric cu care iese în față, de câte ori au ocazia oamenii ce-și duc viața în Inverness - Citrus. Clădirea veche de peste 100 de ani e înconjurată de case ca din povești, alei cu stejari seculari uriași, magazine de suveniruri cochete, old time, oameni amabili și relaxați. În timpul mesei ne-a magnetizat privirile o masă specială la care toate femeile purtau pălării roșii. Ele fac parte din Clubul ”Pălăriilor Roșii” o asociație cu femei nonconformiste cu vârste de peste 50 de ani ce activează în State din 1998. Azi se exprimă în 30 de țări prin... 20.000 de filiale. Membrii se reunesc periodic pentru a-și proiecta diverse activități caritabile dar și planuri de vacanță. Pălăriile fistichii, diferă ca model, singura comună fiind culoarea roșu aprins.
\r\nLU - hipopotamul devenit Cetățean de Onoare
\r\nCu întâlnirea pitorească rămasă în memorie ne-am continuat drumul spre Homosassa Spring Wildlife Park, loc diferit de restul și prin faptul că aici se oferă ocrotire și adăpost animalelor bolnave, bătrâne sau părăsite din diverse motive. Cu această informație am început, ghidați de voluntari, printre poveștile lui Yuma, un pui de panteră americană de numai un an. Am făcut cunoștință cu Lu, un hipopotam în vârstă de 55 de ani, cel mai vechi locuitor al parcului, declarat din 1991, Cetățean de Onoare al statului Florida. Nu glumim, e pe bune și se pune la experiențele pe care le-am adunat și fotografiat ! Cea mai tare întâlnire am avut-o cu niște creaturi uriașe care înoată liniștite în apele limpezi ale râului Homosassa. Se mișcă foarte lent, par pietre imense scufundate la malurile apei. Deși seamănă, nu sunt nici foci, nici morse! Sunt lamantini, dar americanii le spun manatees, care-și duc aici bătrânețile liniștite! Se vede cu ochiul liber, că prea mult răsfăț le strică, astfel că au fost necesare măsuri pentru o cură de slăbire pe bază doar de frunze de salată verde. Și manatees vor să dea bine la paradele subacvatice, mai ales că tot ritualul lor de înnot și hrănire poate fi urmărit de turiști dintr-un observator subacvatic amenajat special aici din...1964. Filme, fotografii, fascinația unor uriași care te privesc pașnici, cu ochi bânzi. Ghidul, o doamnă cu o vârstă respectabilă, a lucrat toată viața aici. A revenit, după pensionare, ca voluntar, și e foarte mândră că după orele acumulate aici se situează la Panoul de onoare al contributorilor, alături de personalități ce au contribuit la păstrarea acestui parc natural. Acum are în coordonare, atenție nu în subordine, un voluntar junior, pe Regan Schroeder, un puști care vine în toate vacanțele să învețe aici drumul respectabil al naturii. De la amândoi aflăm că în Florida, în apele calde ale Golfului Mexic trăiește unica populație de lamantini indieni (manatees) din lume, aproape 3400 de exemplare, specie protejată, aflată pe cale de dispariție.
\r\nELVIS, Manatees și Billy Crystal
\r\nDrumul ne duce mai departe: spre The Plantation on Crystal River, un complex hotelier încercuit de apele golfului Kings, cu venerabila vârstă de 50 de ani. Marketingul, în persoana energicei Terry Natwich, ne ia în primire pentru a ne etala tarife avantajoase dar și atuurile proprietății. Frumusețea locului și, mai ales atmosfera caldă, aproape patriarhală se înscriu în conceptul de ”lux, calm și voluptate”. Plimbarea cu barca pe Crystal River ne încarcă cu informații care sporesc valoarea zonei: în hotelul ”Port Paradise Resort”, cu o fațadă cromatică originală, a locuit Elvis Presley în 1961 când a filmat ”Fallow That Dream”; tot aici se află și casa lui Billy Crystal, al cărui nume de actor a fost inspirat de... Crystal River; în apele acestui râu își găsesc anual refugiul circa 500 de manatees (lamantini) care oferă o altă atracție unicat - aici găsiți singurul loc din America de Nord unde turiștii pot înota în absolută legalitate, alături de lamantini. Cu delfinii înoată poate toată lumea, dar cu aceste vietăți ai șansa să o faci dacă te scoli dimineața și, firește, ai ceva bani în buzunar. Unii dintre jurnaliștii prezenți au făcut-o! Alții s-au îndreptat către un alt parc celebru din Florida - Silver Spring. Zona, pe care ne-a bucurat să o revedem, este creditată drept cea mai veche destinație turistică a statului. Apa lacului impresionează prin limpezimea sa de cristal ce provine de la stratul freatic al Floridei ce asigură apa potabilă pentru locuitorii săi. Cercetările științifice arată că apa se primenește prin izvoarele freatice din adâncuri la fiecare... 2 secunde. Cam 460 de galoane de milioane de apă pe zi. Micile vaporașe, cu fundul de sticlă, construite retro sunt eco nu tulbură ecosistemul iar o craozieră este un bun prilej să cunoști comandanți de nave octogenari (Charlie Cypress este unul dintre acești tineri și... neliniștiți), voluntari, încântați să-ți relateze despre exemplarele de păsări ori maimuțe, despre faptul că aici s-au turnat scene subacvatice din filme celebre. Tarzan, ei cum să nu tresărim de plăcere!, ( cu Johnny Weissmuller și Maureen O’Sullivan prin 1939), Show-ul TV ”Sea Hunt” și ”Creature from the Black Lagoon” sunt doar o parte dintre producții.\r\nTURISM de 60 de milioane
\r\nDincolo de poezia naturii, Silver Springs State Park are și o importanță deosebită. El asigură peste 1000 de locuri de muncă și pompează în economia locală prin activitățile sale turistice, științifice, culturale circa 60 de milioane de dolari. În același timp în lupta pentru conservarea naturii și eradicarea poluării izvoarelor freatice își desfășoară activitatea Silver Springs Alliance, o forță civică ce-i reunește pe toți voluntarii din rezervațiile naturale acestui stat. Organizația își desfășoară activitatea animată de dragostea și respectul față de unicitatea și naturalețea lumii în care ne este dat să trăim.
\r\nPoate vă întrebați? Doar parcuri și rezervații, cam monoton nu? Dacă ați ști câte căruțe pline de atracții turistice mai avem! Gastronomice, oenologice, hipice, culturale. Din Florida, cu dragoste, și în numărul viitor.

Ruta forestieră pe care am străbătut-o are aproximativ 60 de kilometri dar traseul turistic este de circa 20 de kilometri până la stația Paltin. Calea ferată cu ecartament îngust (amenajată între 1924-1932, în perioada Imperiului Austro-Ungar) este parte dintr-un patrimoniu tehnic unic. Administrată de Căile Ferate Forestiere (CFF) Vișeul de Sus ea este considerată ultimul vestigiu funcțional pe care mai circulă trenuri trase de locomotive cu abur. Sunt încă folosite la transportul lemnului din munți. Cam în ultimii cinci ani activitățile turistice au început să devină o bună concurență a activităților industriale. Prin 2010 călătoreau pe Valea Vaserului și vizitau Gara, circa 18.000 de turiști. Anul trecut au sosit aici circa 30.000.\n\nO parte dintre curioși au venit din Germania, Italia, Austria, Ungaria, Franța, Polonia, Elveția. Dar și din Taiwan, Hong Kong, Ghana ori Islanda. După cum ne spun rangerșii Cristina și Vlad, de la Rezervația Naturală Munții Maramureșului, în acest an e posibil ca numărul lor să depășească 40.000. Mulți au călătorit cu garniturile turistice trase de locomotivele ”O&K” (a fost construită în 1910 și e cea mai veche din patrimoniu), ”Krauss” (1921), și alte 5 locomotive fabricate la Reșița între anii 1953-1955. Dacă ne raportăm la populația orașului Vișeul de Sus (circa 15.000 de locuitori), ne dăm seama că turismul poate aduce mari beneficii comunității locale. Și asta se vede cu ochiul liber. Au apărut spații de cazare moderne, hotelul ”Gabriela” (săli de conferințe, de evenimente, centru Spa etc) anunțând timpul unor alte generații de călători.\n\nEi au, de câteva săptămâni, ocazia să afle despre Mocăniță și Valea Vaserului și de pe platforma digitală a Google Cultural Institute, ce ofera accesul la patrimoniul cultural-istoric a celor mai importante locuri din lume. Călătoria durează circa 6-7 ore. Un bilet dus-întors costă echivalentul a 12 euro. Mai trebuie să știți că în 2011 a fost amplasat în Gara CFF Viseu singurul tren-hotel din România - Carpatia Express. Nu circulă, iar o noapte de cazare într-un compartiment dublu costă 64 de lei.\n\nTramvaiul de la Vyhoda\n\n\n\nCu circa 3.500 de locuitori Vyhoda se prezintă ca un orășel de buzunar. Cu toate acestea a trecut prin vremuri grele. După ce a fost privatizată cu mari investitori Fabrica de prelucrare a lemnului a intrat în faliment. Cum? Numai ei știu! O asociație de oameni de afaceri ucraineni au repus-o pe picioare și de atunci lucrurile merg ca pe roate. Cel puțin așa susține Matseliukh Mykhailo. E primarul așezării din 1998. A fost reales la fiecare 4 ani. Circa 700 de locuitori lucrează la Fabrica de pal melaminat ”Uniplytu” și încă vreo sută la o întreprindere de lacuri și vopseluri.\n\nAdăugând pe cei din administrație, sistemul sanitar, învățământ, ne dăm seama că primarul spune adevărul: orașul e în căutare de forță de muncă. ”Tramvaiul din Carpați” are legătură cu toate acestea. El a fost folosit ca mijloc de transport până prin anii ‘60 când au fost introduse pentru transportul lemnului, funicularele forestiere. Practic, Mocănița din Carpați și-a încetat existența prin 1990. Linia cu ecartament îngust (770 milimetri) a fost construită de întreprinzătorul austriac Leopold Popper von Podgari în secolul al XIX-lea pentru a fi folosită la transportul materialelor lemnoase din munți către unitățile de prelucrare.\n\nPe la 1890, exista o linie ferată de 3 kilometri ce furniza materiale gaterului din comuna Vyhoda, primul din această parte a Carpaților. Mocănița era trasă pe atunci de cai. Mai târziu au fost înlocuiți de locomotive cu abur. Baronul austriac a făcut o avere fabuloasă și cu o parte din ea și-a construit în 1855 o reședință de vară. Chiar și când era în paragină, tot amintea de stilul vilelor elvețiene.\n\nProiectul ”Mocănițele din Carpați” a prevăzut și reconstruirea fostei case unde a locuit fondatorul austriac. Acum ea se învecinează cu Primăria și centrul orașului Vyhoda. În clădirea restaurată va funcționa ”Centrul patrimoniului mocăniței din Vyhoda”, care alături de Tramvaiul din Carpați va deveni atracția turistică nr.1 a regiunii. Lucrările sunt susținute de conducerea Fabricii ”Uniplytu”ce și-a propus să finanțeze și amenajarea unei gări turistice dotată cu toate facilitățile. ”Am învățat foarte multe de la colegii noștri români. Ne-am inspirat și am pus în practică și la Tramvaiul din Carpați o parte din experiențele trăite de aceștia.\n\nNu avem locomotive cu aburi ca pe Valea Vaserului. Folosim un automotor modernizat care tractează vagoanele. O parte dintre ele au fost salvate de la cimitirele de fier vechi. Le-am restaurat și acum sunt funcționale. Unele sunt acoperite, altele descoperite. Noi le spunem vagoane cabriolet. Avem încă foarte mult de lucru, dar potențialul pentru programe turistice este uriaș” - ne spunea directorul Tramvaiului Yatskiv Liubomer, o adevărată enciclopedie vie.\n\nEl a fost ghidul călătoriei noastre care a avut stații de poveste la Izvoarele minerale (Naftusya e o apă magică), la horinca îndulcită cu miere, în țara ”Pinului Pitic”, a magicii rezervații în care crește floarea... Noroiul mlăștinos, dar și la Complexul balnear. În urmă cu decenii aici era locul unde vedeau pentru refacere și recuperare cosmonauții sovietici.\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\nFOTO: VASILE COSTRUȘ','Trenuri de poveste in muntii Carpati, REDESCOPERA ROMANIA nr. 139','','inherit','open','open','','4300-autosave-v1','','','2016-03-14 12:10:18','2016-03-14 10:10:18','',4300,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2016/03/14/4300-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4351,1,'2016-03-14 12:09:17','2016-03-14 10:09:17','','Train Valea Vaserului 2','','inherit','open','open','','train-valea-vaserului-2','','','2016-03-14 12:09:17','2016-03-14 10:09:17','',4300,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Train-Valea-Vaserului-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4352,1,'2016-03-14 12:09:18','2016-03-14 10:09:18','','Train Valea Vaserului 3','','inherit','open','open','','train-valea-vaserului-3','','','2016-03-14 12:09:18','2016-03-14 10:09:18','',4300,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Train-Valea-Vaserului-3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4353,1,'2016-03-14 12:09:18','2016-03-14 10:09:18','','Train Valea Vaserului 4','','inherit','open','open','','train-valea-vaserului-4-2','','','2016-03-14 12:09:18','2016-03-14 10:09:18','',4300,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Train-Valea-Vaserului-41.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4354,1,'2016-03-14 12:09:19','2016-03-14 10:09:19','','Train Valea Vaserului','','inherit','open','open','','train-valea-vaserului','','','2016-03-14 12:09:19','2016-03-14 10:09:19','',4300,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Train-Valea-Vaserului.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4355,1,'2016-03-14 12:10:35','2016-03-14 10:10:35','','Tramvai Vihoda ucraina 010','','inherit','open','open','','tramvai-vihoda-ucraina-010','','','2016-03-14 12:10:35','2016-03-14 10:10:35','',4300,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Tramvai-Vihoda-ucraina-010.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4356,1,'2016-03-14 12:10:35','2016-03-14 10:10:35','','Tramvai Vyhoda ucraina 061','','inherit','open','open','','tramvai-vyhoda-ucraina-061','','','2016-03-14 12:10:35','2016-03-14 10:10:35','',4300,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Tramvai-Vyhoda-ucraina-061.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4357,1,'2016-03-14 12:10:36','2016-03-14 10:10:36','','Tramvai Vyhoda ucraina 072','','inherit','open','open','','tramvai-vyhoda-ucraina-072','','','2016-03-14 12:10:36','2016-03-14 10:10:36','',4300,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Tramvai-Vyhoda-ucraina-072.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4358,1,'2016-03-14 12:10:37','2016-03-14 10:10:37','','Tramvai Vyhoda ucraina 083','','inherit','open','open','','tramvai-vyhoda-ucraina-083','','','2016-03-14 12:10:37','2016-03-14 10:10:37','',4300,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Tramvai-Vyhoda-ucraina-083.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4359,1,'2016-03-14 12:11:08','2016-03-14 10:11:08','Chiar dacă nu sunteți pasionați de turismul feroviar sigur ați auzit de celebra ”Mocăniță” de pe Valea Vaserului, din Munții Maramureșului.

Lucrările sunt susținute de conducerea Fabricii ”Uniplytu”ce și-a propus să finanțeze și amenajarea unei gări turistice dotată cu toate facilitățile. ”Am învățat foarte multe de la colegii noștri români. Ne-am inspirat și am pus în practică și la Tramvaiul din Carpați o parte din experiențele trăite de aceștia.\r\n\r\nNu avem locomotive cu aburi ca pe Valea Vaserului. Folosim un automotor modernizat care tractează vagoanele. O parte dintre ele au fost salvate de la cimitirele de fier vechi. Le-am restaurat și acum sunt funcționale. Unele sunt acoperite, altele descoperite. Noi le spunem vagoane cabriolet. Avem încă foarte mult de lucru, dar potențialul pentru programe turistice este uriaș” - ne spunea directorul Tramvaiului Yatskiv Liubomer, o adevărată enciclopedie vie.\r\n\r\nEl a fost ghidul călătoriei noastre care a avut stații de poveste la Izvoarele minerale (Naftusya e o apă magică), la horinca îndulcită cu miere, în țara ”Pinului Pitic”, a magicii rezervații în care crește floarea... Noroiul mlăștinos, dar și la Complexul balnear. În urmă cu decenii aici era locul unde vedeau pentru refacere și recuperare cosmonauții sovietici.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nFOTO: VASILE COSTRUȘ','Trenuri de poveste in muntii Carpati, REDESCOPERA ROMANIA nr. 139','','inherit','open','open','','4300-revision-v1','','','2016-03-14 12:11:08','2016-03-14 10:11:08','',4300,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2016/03/14/4300-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4360,1,'2016-03-14 12:18:05','2016-03-14 10:18:05','','Rom Delta 100','','inherit','open','open','','rom-delta-100','','','2016-03-14 12:18:05','2016-03-14 10:18:05','',4303,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Rom-Delta-100.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4361,1,'2016-03-14 12:18:27','2016-03-14 10:18:27','','Rom muntii apuseni 3','','inherit','open','open','','rom-muntii-apuseni-3','','','2016-03-14 12:18:27','2016-03-14 10:18:27','',4303,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Rom-muntii-apuseni-3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4362,1,'2016-03-14 12:19:48','2016-03-14 10:19:48','Am parcurs în ultimii ani, fel de fel de articole cu topuri prezentând cele mai frumoase destinații turistice din lume, pe care trebuie să le vizitezi. Ca profesoară de turism m-am gândit să vă stârnesc interesul cu un Top 10 național. A fost o selecție dificilă. Pentru că eu cred că România deține cel puțin 100 de locuri ce merită vizitate într-o viață.\n\n 1 – București – capitala vieții, culorilor și istoriei\n\nÎn 2015 capitala a împlinit 556 de ani de la prima atestare documentară. Bucureștiul, a trecut prin schimbări majore de imagine, de la un secol la altul. Am început cu București, ca fiind primul loc pe care trebuie să îl vezi, pentru că reunește locuri pentru toate gusturile. Bucharest City Tour - este un proiect care are succes și oferă posibilitatea turiștilor să vadă într-un tur cu autocarul, cele mai interesante locuri din oraș. Printre ele - Muzeul Național al Satului \"Dimitrie Gusti\" - unul dintre cele mai mari muzee etnografice situate în aer liber din Europa; Muzeul de Istorie Naturală \"Grigore Antipa\" – arată dinamica vieții pe pământ; Ateneul Român - simbolul culturii nationale; Palatul Regal – Muzeul Național de Arta al țării noastre; Palatul CEC - una dintre primele instituții bancare ale României; Palatul Parlamentului – un edificiu grandios, cea mai mare clădire administrativă din lume etc.\n\n 2 – Sibiul – citadela culturii\n\n\n\nE în inimia Transilvaniei. El al nostru. Și ne bucură. Poate nu știați: Sibiul a urcat pe locul 8 în topul celor mai frumoase locuri din Europa și este cunoscut datorită frumuseţilor naturale dar și a istoriei sale plină de diversitate culturală. În 2007, Sibiul a fost Capitală europeană a culturii, iar până în 2020, va ramâne singurul oraș românesc ce s-a bucurat de o asemenea nominalizare și recunoaștere.\n\n 3 - Munții Carpați\n\nLanțul muntos ocupă un loc important în preferințele turistilor români sau străini. Munții Carpați formează un arc ce acoperă 31% din suprafața României. Carpații înseamnă sute de kilometri de frumusețe naturală, nealterată încă de civilizație, peisaje de vis și o abundență de floră și faună. Traseele montane unice (Transfăgărășan și Transalpina), vârfurile înalte bune pentru escaladat, peșterile subterane, defileele spectaculoase și lacurile vulcanice, speciile de animale și plante pe cale de dispariție, sunt câteva dintre atracțiile care pun în mișcare milioane de turiști în fiecare an.\n\n 4 – Litoralul Mării Negre\n\nVara, e destinația numărul 1. De la luxoasa Mamaia, până la Vama Veche preferată de tinerii dornici de distracție, toate cele 15 stațiuni de pe litoral, oferă diferitelor segmente de turiști, tipul de vacanță dorit, în funcție de bugetul alocat.\n\n5 - Delta Dunării\n\n\n\nO destinație de vacanță ireală, protejată prin lege datorită unicității ei și a speciilor de vietăți și plante pe cale de dispariție care trăiesc acolo. Delta Dunării, Rezervația biosferei, este singura deltă fluvială intactă din Europa și singura deltă declarată rezervație a biosferei din lume. Delta formată de Dunăre este un adevărat muzeu viu al biodiversității, o destinație turistică repetabilă în sezoane diferite dar și la vârste diferite.\n\n 6 - Castelul Contelui Dracula – Bran\n\nSute de povești de dragoste sau de groază, prezentate în cărțile sau filmele cu vampiri, fac călătorii din toată lumea să ”prizeze” chiar și în secolul XXI -, legenda lui Vlad Țepeș, cu nume de cod... Dracula. Legenda rămâne totuși, legendă. Și, poate, e mai bine așa! Castelul lui Dracula, trebuie vizitat și cercetat. Invitația rămâne valabilă încă din anul 1897, când când a fost lansată de scriitorul irlandez Bram Stoker. El e alchimistul care l-a transformat pe voievodul nostru în Dracula, un personaj ce a supt sângele din... trupurile miturilor populare.\n\n7 – Vulcanii noroioși și Focurile vii\n\nÎn Buzău întâlnim două fenomene naturale. Ele au la bază emanațiile de gaze și oferă un spectacol pe care trebuie să-l vedeți.Vulcanii noroioși, se află în comuna Berca. Prin respirația lor scot la suprafată apă și argilă. În contact cu aerul, caldura și vântul de afară se solidifică formând un con similar cu al unui vulcan, formează un peisaj selenar, ireal. Tot în Buzău, în comuna Lopătari, există un fenomen similar, dar totuși diferit ca și spectacol, Focurile vii. Fenomenul are la bază aceleași emanații de gaze naturale. Ele sunt aprinse de soare sau fulgere, iar flăcările lor care ard continuu, oferă un spectacol inedit.\n\n8 – Trovanții – Pietrele vii\n\n\n\nDacă tot sunteți în Buzău, nu ratați pietrele care cresc – Trovanții din Ulmet. Trovanții, sunt pietre vii care se hrănesc cu nisip și se dezvoltă după formula perlelor, datorită apelor calcaroase, care le spală și le cimentează în timp. Interesante și datorită formelor ele sugerează o lume extraterestră, plină de scenarii imaginare.\n\n 9 – Peștera Urșilor\n\n\n\nEste cea mai cunoscută și cea mai vizitată peșteră din Munţii Apuseni. Se află în comuna Pietroasa, la o altitudine de 482 de metri (judeţul Bihor). Interiorul ei se distinge de ale altor peșteri prin diversitatea formaţiunilor de stalactite şi stalagmite, ca şi prin cantitatea impresionantă de urme şi fosile ale ursului de cavernă.\n\n 10 – Cascada Bigăr\n\nAm optat să închei TOP 10, cu unul dintre noii veniți. Vă recomand să vizitați spectaculoasa cascadă Bigăr care a reușit să devină renumită și în afara granițelor țării. Din cele 8 cascade menționate în topul celor de la The World Geography, cascada care uimește prin spectacolul oferit de firele de apă ce se revarsă peste stânca acoperită de mușchi, a reușit să urce pe primul loc al topului. Este, în mod sigur, cea mai frumoasă cădere de apă din țara noastră.

Existã multe piețe hoteliere subdimensionate ca spații de cazare, sau supradimensionate dar deficitare sub aspectul calitãții și serviciilor. Aici este spațiul nostru de lucru. Ca o idee România se situeazã prin cele douã hoteluri (cu o capacitate de 763 de camere) în Top 3 din cele 25 de țãri unde este prezent grupul din care fac parte. Numai în 2015 vom inaugura în total 25 de hoteluri pe mapamond. Din Mauritius, Togo, Congo pânã în Nairobi. Suntem foarte mândri de creșterea noastrã”.
\r\nHotelul nou intrat pe piața turismului românesc (ce folosește structura fostului complex Centre Ville din clãdirea comunã cu Radisson Blu) pune la dispoziția clienților 210 camere și apartamente, proiectate cu spații generoase destinate pentru camera de zi, format ideal pentru șederea pe termen lung și pentru familiile aflate în tranzit. În plus, hotelul deține și patru sãli de conferințã, care pot acomoda pânã la 80 de persoane. Park Inn oferã acces gratuit la internet de mare vitezã, dar și intrare gratuitã la centrul de fitness din interiorul hotelului, operat de cãtre World Class Health Academy. Vedetã în materie de restaurație se contureazã restaurantul și barul Sharkia, situate la parterul hotelului, cu specific internațional și est mediteraneean. La restaurarea și realizarea arhitecturii exterioare a clãdirii care adãpostește Park Inn au fost contractaþi renumiți arhitecți și designeri de interior: agenþia Creneau International a supervizat toate etapele renovãrii interioare, prin selectarea accesoriilor și decorațiunilor interioare și Cristea Arhitectura, un birou local de arhitecturã recunoscut pentru construcțiile hoteliere și planurile de urbanism realizate. \r\nTELEFERIC GRAND a intrat pe pârtie
\r\nTeleferic Grand Hotel – Poiana Brașov si-a redeschis porțile dupã derularea unei investiții ce se cifreazã la aproximativ 5 milioane de euro. Clãdirea hotelului, care a aparținut companiei imobiliare Willbrook Management a fost preluatã de cãtre compania Tint Srl controlatã de antreprenorul Ștefan Tint. Clasificat la 4 stele, complexul este o destinatie ideala pentru turismul de afaceri și vacanțe. El dispune de 260 de locuri de cazare, oferind oaspeților 127 de camere și apartamente moderne. Pentru turismul de afaceri amexistã 4 sãli de conferințe cu o capacitate de 400 de locuri. Ele sunt dotate cu echipamente audio-video și alte tehnologii moderne. Pentru momente de relaxare a fost configurat un Centrul SPA, unde sunt oferite servicii de întreținere facialã, tratamente de remodelare corporalã, terapii anti-stres și masaje pentru relaxare și tonifiere. Zona de odihnã și relaxare pune la dispoziție o piscinã interioarã, un confortabil hot tub în aer liber, saunã uscatã, umedã și cu infraroșii, precum și un SPA bar unde puteți savura cocktail-uri de colecție. Iar pentru ca odihna sã fie completã vã puteți rãsfãța cu delicii gastronomice românești și internaționale în cele douã restaurante cu 300 de locuri și cele 4 baruri. Printre facilitãți se mai numãrã o salã de cinema, Centru de închiriere echipament sportiv, Școalã de ski, transport de la/cãtre aeroport și garã etc.

S-a schimbat lumea de travel în două decenii și jumătate? O proiecție ne este oferită de George Sorin Nicolescu, președintele companiei. ”Un sfert de secol cu un business fără pierderi. Cu toate activitățile concentrate în turism. De la leisure la ticketing, de la consultanță la organizare de evenimente. 25 de ani de pionierat în turismul privat, de experiențe noi și inovative. Este un business de familie, construit cu seriozitate, stabilitate. Suntem solicitați de asemenea de instituțiile statului, la contracte de achiziții publice, unde suntem alături de alți parteneri din travel”.\r\n
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"4421,4422,4424,4425\"]\r\n- Ești unul dintre liderii ANAT și ai Camerei de comerț pe segmentul turistic! S-a dezvoltat piața turismului românesc sau s-a comprimat?
\r\n- Părerea mea este că s-a decomprimat. Au apărut extrem de multe locații în București și în țară. De la 20 de agenții de turism am ajuns azi la peste 2000. Relațiile agențiilor românești sunt foarte solide și credibile, multe dintre ele fiind apreciate în prestațiile cu partenerii străini. Ca urmare a creșterii pieței de business au intrat și la noi multinaționalele, printre care TUI, Dertour, American Expresss, Carlson Wagonlit etc. Industria s-a dezvoltat foarte mult, peste nivelul cererii. Senzația de saturație se manifestă în anumite perioade. Și asta creează azi o competiție acerbă care, în urmă cu decenii era dezordonată, sălbatică. Acum lucrăm pe baza bunelor practici. Mai e încă de nevoie de 10-15 ani să ne aliniem la ele. Și să înțelegem că, totuși, beneficiarul este pilonul modern, civilizat al tuturor activităților turistice. La această consolidare contribuie și Internetul care a depășit ponderea de 30%, creând o imagine mai clară asupra acestui business.
\r\n- Circa 70% din încasările industriei provin anual din turismul de evenimente? Totuși, ce-i lipsește României pentru a deveni un jucător redutabil pe piața MICE ?
\r\n- În turismul de evenimente se conturează proiecții pentru viitoare creșteri. Ce ne lipsește? După părerea mea ar fi trei elemente principale: o imagine bună a României, ancorată încă de presa internațională, în timpul trecut. E nevoie de susținere majoră din partea instituțiilor statului de a lua sub patronajul lor evenimente majore - politice, economice, culturale sportive etc. Fără acest patronaj evenimentele nu vor fi alocate țării noastre. În fine e nevoie de construirea unui Centru de Convenții și Conferințe în afara Palatului Parlamentului. Multifuncțional, cu dotările și facilitățile moderne, așa cum au toate Capitalele sau marile orașe ale lumii.
\r\n- Ce ne împiedică să facem mai mulți bani din incoming?
\r\n- Și aici tot cu imaginea țării începem. În această direcție ANT ar trebui să se implice în tratative cu marii tour-operatori internaționali. Aceștia ar putea să promoveze intens România turistică, în broșurile, cataloagele, site-urile lor. Dacă ei vor vinde din ce în ce mai bine România, este clar că interesul pentru această ”marfă turistică” va fi în creștere. Nu avem sprijin pentru organizarea de chartere low-cost dinspre Japonia, Hong Kong, Coreea. Există mare interes pentru a vizita România, dar nu cu avioane de linie ci charter. Apoi avem o politică a vizelor față de turiștii chinezi, defazată comparativ cu cea europeană. Birocrația sufocă această relație de suflet dar și comercială. Mai avem și o problemă locală - continuitatea și păstrarea nivelului serviciilor. Apar noi hoteluri, pensiuni, restaurante. Dar serviciile oferite la început scad la scurt timp după deschidere. Turistul indiferent de unde vine, sancționează aceste aspecte.
\r\n- Banii sau oamenii? Ce a fost mai important în construcția grupului de turism în acest sfert de secol?
\r\n- Sunt două componente pe care am sprijinit toată construcția afacerii de familie. Echipa, care trebuie să crească și să devină cât mai performantă. Cine nu știe nu este eliminat. Este învățat să facă ce e nevoie în orice moment. Românul este un tip deschis, universal. Dacă se străduiește, muncește inteligent, creează plus-valoare și profit. Noi am investit în fiecare an acest profit atât în refinanțarea unor evenimente dar și în pregătirea profesională. Așa se explică de ce configurație echipei noastre, cu o medie de vârstă de circa 35 de ani, a cunoscut schimbări relativ mici de-a lungul anilor. Pentru a organiza acțiuni mari trebuie să ai potențial și rezerve cu care să finanțezi manifestări care vor fi decontate peste 6 luni, poate mai mult. Deci ai fond mare, ai clienți mari. Tu trebuie să decizi.
\r\n- Respectul față de client! Cât de mult valorificăm acest segment în serviciile turistice?
\r\n- Oricui i-ar fi greu să facă o imagine globală. Eu mă refer la firma Olimpic și pot spune următoarele lucruri: Respectul este pe primul loc. Civilizația business-ului ține de prestigiu și de poziționarea ta pe piață. Atâta timp cât de exemplu nu-ți plătești furnizorii la timp nici clienții tăi nu vor fi mulțumiți. De aceea am ținut să avem întotdeauna transparență, corectitudine, seriozitate, punctualitate în plăți. Timpul și calitatea serviciilor stau la baza respectului în afaceri.
\r\n- Aveți un mesaj pentru concurență?
\r\n- Concurenței îi urez să-i meagă cât mai bine. Dar într-un mediu de bune practici. Fără salturi spectaculoase și acțiuni de marketing ostile altor firme. Multe s-au dovedit de-a lungul anilor neproductive. Constanța și profesionalismul își spun cunvântul și în acest caz.
\r\n- Care sunt Top 3 destinații preferate: în lume, dar în țară?
\r\n- Îmi place la fel de mult în Bulgaria, SUA, Peru, Alaska, Kenia sau Dubai. În Maramureș, Nordul Moldovei, Delta Dunării sau pe litoral. Peste tot descoperi povești turistice noi. În materie de tehnologii turistice lucrurile stau la fel. Am fost GSA Delta Airlines, am dezvoltat concepte devenite azi clasice. Acum dezvoltăm și o divizie online. Ne inspirăm din experiența câștigată în SUA, unde suntem reprezentanți ai României, la International Pow Wow (IPW), de 23 de ani, cu participare neîntreruptă. Aici tehnologia turistică se exprimă la nivelul cel mai înalt. Ea a remodelat businessul clasic dar și structura obținerii profiturilor! Nu întâmplător suntem unii dintre cei mai apreciați promotori ai turismului cultural, tehnic ori de evenimente în SUA, realmente un continent de atracții fabuloase.

Atunci când ți se propune vizitarea unei ferme renumite pentru frumusețea cabalinelor sale, aflată în inima ”țării cailor” nu ai cum să refuzi.\r\n![\"Florida](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Florida-1.jpg\")
\r\n
Și bine am făcut pentru că eleganța proprietății Kimberden Farm din Ocala este depășită doar de cea a armăsarilor de rasă antrenați pentru competiții. Industria creată în jurul creșterii cailor de rasă este puternică și profitabilă. În zonă se află cel mai mare număr de cai pe cap de... locuitor din lume. De fapt zona își revendică poziția de capitală a calului în competiție acerbă cu cei din Kentucky. De câștigat au evident toți caii dar, firește și proprietarii lor deveniți foarte bogați în urma tranzacțiilor cu exemplare performante. Ashley Dobbs, Sales & Marketing Coordinator la Ocala Marion County, Florida -, ne atrage atenția că prețul unui exemplar îl poate depăși pe cel al unei limuzine de lux, comandă specială. Desigur și turiștii au de câștigat. Ne-am bucurat din plin de plimbarea cu căruța, cînd la pas când la galop, de-a lungul șoselelor umbrite de stejari seculari, cu ferme risipite pe domenii imense și cai păscând liberi într-o lume desprinsă de ritmul cotidian. Până și semnul de la trecerea de... pietoni îți atrage atenția că pe drumurile de la Ocala, este recomandată reducerea vitezei și oferirea priorității elegantelor cabaline. Kimberden Farm este proprietatea Universității din Florida iar tinerii care vin și lucrează aici urmează cursuri despre creșterea cailor și secrete ale sporturilor ecvestre. Sunt în mare parte studenții care-și completează cunoștințele în timpul vacanțelor, al stagiilor practice și de voluntariat.\r\n

Pizza, Ford și vinuri din coacăze
\r\nRămânem în același spațiu vintage și în timpul prânzului servit într-un restaurantul Satchel’s Pizza din Gainesville. O harababură de vechituri trăznite, adunate în stil american, care reușesc să creeze prin supraaglomerare un spațiu urban vesel și atractiv. Iar dacă nu ți-a ajuns spațiul interior al restaurantului n-ai decât să vizitezi camerele din laterală de unde poți cumpăra suveniruri trăznite din timpuri retro la prețuri ca atare. Vedeta pizzeriei este de departe microbuzul Ford din 1960, un mini-local pe patru roți închiriat frecvent de către familii cu mai mulți copii. Conform unei vechi tradiții aici nimic nu se aruncă totul se revalorifică. \r\nDupă o masă colorată - la care ne-am întâlnit cu Ashley Abney, International Sales & Market Development Representative al VISITFLORIDA -, oferta de a vizita o cramă neconvențională s-a dovedit foarte tentantă. Mai ales că la Island Grove Winery producătorii știu să creeze o atmosferă plină de suspans chiar în timpul degustărilor. Licorile sunt foarte căutate pe piață. Marea atracție o reprezintă faptul că vinurile sunt obținute din... afine și coacăze de cultură. De zeci de ani ferma asigură cam 25% din producția statului Florida. Turul proprietății este organizat după ritualul agreat de turiști - plantația, vinăria, stația de îmbuteliere și degustarea finală. Obligatoriu ieșirea se face prin magazinul proprietății unde poți achiziționa vinurile care te-au încântat sau obiecte inscripționate (căni, farfuri, șervețele, șorțuri, tirbușoane etc) imprimate cu fraze amuzante de genul: ”Supa zilei - Vin”, ”Doctorul mi-a spus cum să mă vindec - Bea Vin”, ”Noi muncim pentru pantofi și Vin”, ”Salvează Apa, bea Vin”, ”Prieteni buni, Vinuri bune, Vremuri bune”, ”Vinul - cea mai bună terapie în grup”. După cum ne spune Robyn Aschliman, Events & sales director la Island Grove Wine Company - vinurile sunt obținute prin metode clasice, fără adaosuri de sirop de struguri sau alți substituenți și conțin o cantitate foarte mică de sulfiți. Distribuirea acestora - câteva mii de sticle per serie -, este făcută în rețele de magazine mici, frecventate de cunoscători și amatori de vinuri naturale.
\r\nNimic despre ”mama” lui Harry Potter
\r\nȘi pentru că un pahar de vin bun, fie el chiar și din afine de cultură merge băut când citești o carte bună ni se recomandă încă un tur de poveste într-un alt fel de parc natural: Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings Historic State Park. Acesta este un domeniu cultural unde se află amplasată casa memorială a scriitoarei MK Rawlings. Ferma unde a creat aceasta se află în minuscula așezare Cross Creek. Autoarea a rămas în istoria literaturii americane ca o creatoare subtilă, ușor excentrică. Ea a câștigat premiul Pulitzer în 1938 cu romanul ”The Yearling”. Atmosfera anilor 1930 se regăsește în fiecare cameră amenajată a proprietății sale. Însăși curatorul contemporan al casei-muzeu (o voluntară desigur) îi primește pe turiști îmbrăcată în haine ce corespund acelor vremuri. Pe noi ne-a încântat să aflăm că nuvela premiată a fost tradusă în anii ‘60 și în limba română, o ediție a acesteia figurând în biblioteca autoarei. Vă sună cunoscut numele scriitoare care s-a stins din viață în 1953? Ei bine, nu există nicio legătură cu ”mama” lui Harry Potter. Poate, doar talentul literar care le unește peste timp.\r\nMicul Broadway și Balerina de bronz
\r\nPloaia deasă și zgomotoasă ne-a scutit de clasicul deja Tur al Fantomelor pe care și Ocala în oferă, ca alte sute de așezări turistice din Statele Unite. Tăsnetele și fulgerele erau mai adevărate decât efectele de lumini care ne așteptau așa că organizatorii ne-au propus să încheiem această zi îmbibată de natură, vin și cultură cu vizionarea unui spectacol de teatru. Unde altundeva decât la Hippodrome Theatre din centrul Gainesville, considerat drept ”Micul Broadway”. Aici aici sunt jucate cu succes piese devenite celebre ulterior pe Broadway. De 40 de ani de când funcționează această instituție de cultură a fost și a rămas cea mai importantă atracție a orașului. Iar ca programul să fie deplin a doua zi dimineață, când Florida și-a scos iarăși la produs soarele arzător, am încheiat periplul nostru cu o vizită la The Appleton Museum. Aspect particular, acesta aparține College of Central Florida și a fost construit, realizat și dăruit comunității de familia cu același nume. Averea ei a fost făcută din prelucrarea oțelului. O parte din bani au dat viață unei clădiri cu o arhitectură modernă, dar sobră, construită din marmura și travertin. Ea oferă vizitatorilor în cele 8 expoziții permanente peste 18.000 de exponate, de la sculptură mică până la picturi de dimensiuni impresionante - ne-a atras atenția Jim Carrell, curatorul Muzeului. În colecția de artă modernă am reperat bronzul ”Balerina”, una dintre lucrările semnate de artistul român Demetre H. Chiparus (1886-1947). Cu studii la Paris el este exponent al curentulului Art Deco, pe care l-a pus în valoare prin lucrări influențate de baletul rusesc, realizate din aliaje originale din metale luxoase, foarte apreciate de colecționari.

Atunci când ți se propune vizitarea unei ferme renumite pentru frumusețea cabalinelor sale, aflată în inima ”țării cailor” nu ai cum să refuzi.
\r\nȘi bine am făcut pentru că eleganța proprietății Kimberden Farm din Ocala este depășită doar de cea a armăsarilor de rasă antrenați pentru competiții. Industria creată în jurul creșterii cailor de rasă este puternică și profitabilă. În zonă se află cel mai mare număr de cai pe cap de... locuitor din lume. De fapt zona își revendică poziția de capitală a calului în competiție acerbă cu cei din Kentucky. De câștigat au evident toți caii dar, firește și proprietarii lor deveniți foarte bogați în urma tranzacțiilor cu exemplare performante. Ashley Dobbs, Sales & Marketing Coordinator la Ocala Marion County, Florida -, ne atrage atenția că prețul unui exemplar îl poate depăși pe cel al unei limuzine de lux, comandă specială. Desigur și turiștii au de câștigat. Ne-am bucurat din plin de plimbarea cu căruța, cînd la pas când la galop, de-a lungul șoselelor umbrite de stejari seculari, cu ferme risipite pe domenii imense și cai păscând liberi într-o lume desprinsă de ritmul cotidian. Până și semnul de la trecerea de... pietoni îți atrage atenția că pe drumurile de la Ocala, este recomandată reducerea vitezei și oferirea priorității elegantelor cabaline. Kimberden Farm este proprietatea Universității din Florida iar tinerii care vin și lucrează aici urmează cursuri despre creșterea cailor și secrete ale sporturilor ecvestre. Sunt în mare parte studenții care-și completează cunoștințele în timpul vacanțelor, al stagiilor practice și de voluntariat.
\r\nPizza, Ford și vinuri din coacăze
\r\nRămânem în același spațiu vintage și în timpul prânzului servit într-un restaurantul Satchel’s Pizza din Gainesville. O harababură de vechituri trăznite, adunate în stil american, care reușesc să creeze prin supraaglomerare un spațiu urban vesel și atractiv. Iar dacă nu ți-a ajuns spațiul interior al restaurantului n-ai decât să vizitezi camerele din laterală de unde poți cumpăra suveniruri trăznite din timpuri retro la prețuri ca atare. Vedeta pizzeriei este de departe microbuzul Ford din 1960, un mini-local pe patru roți închiriat frecvent de către familii cu mai mulți copii. Conform unei vechi tradiții aici nimic nu se aruncă totul se revalorifică. \r\nDupă o masă colorată - la care ne-am întâlnit cu Ashley Abney, International Sales & Market Development Representative al VISITFLORIDA -, oferta de a vizita o cramă neconvențională s-a dovedit foarte tentantă. Mai ales că la Island Grove Winery producătorii știu să creeze o atmosferă plină de suspans chiar în timpul degustărilor. Licorile sunt foarte căutate pe piață. Marea atracție o reprezintă faptul că vinurile sunt obținute din... afine și coacăze de cultură. De zeci de ani ferma asigură cam 25% din producția statului Florida. Turul proprietății este organizat după ritualul agreat de turiști - plantația, vinăria, stația de îmbuteliere și degustarea finală. Obligatoriu ieșirea se face prin magazinul proprietății unde poți achiziționa vinurile care te-au încântat sau obiecte inscripționate (căni, farfuri, șervețele, șorțuri, tirbușoane etc) imprimate cu fraze amuzante de genul: ”Supa zilei - Vin”, ”Doctorul mi-a spus cum să mă vindec - Bea Vin”, ”Noi muncim pentru pantofi și Vin”, ”Salvează Apa, bea Vin”, ”Prieteni buni, Vinuri bune, Vremuri bune”, ”Vinul - cea mai bună terapie în grup”. După cum ne spune Robyn Aschliman, Events & sales director la Island Grove Wine Company - vinurile sunt obținute prin metode clasice, fără adaosuri de sirop de struguri sau alți substituenți și conțin o cantitate foarte mică de sulfiți. Distribuirea acestora - câteva mii de sticle per serie -, este făcută în rețele de magazine mici, frecventate de cunoscători și amatori de vinuri naturale.
\r\nNimic despre ”mama” lui Harry Potter
\r\nȘi pentru că un pahar de vin bun, fie el chiar și din afine de cultură merge băut când citești o carte bună ni se recomandă încă un tur de poveste într-un alt fel de parc natural: Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings Historic State Park. Acesta este un domeniu cultural unde se află amplasată casa memorială a scriitoarei MK Rawlings. Ferma unde a creat aceasta se află în minuscula așezare Cross Creek. Autoarea a rămas în istoria literaturii americane ca o creatoare subtilă, ușor excentrică. Ea a câștigat premiul Pulitzer în 1938 cu romanul ”The Yearling”. Atmosfera anilor 1930 se regăsește în fiecare cameră amenajată a proprietății sale. Însăși curatorul contemporan al casei-muzeu (o voluntară desigur) îi primește pe turiști îmbrăcată în haine ce corespund acelor vremuri. Pe noi ne-a încântat să aflăm că nuvela premiată a fost tradusă în anii ‘60 și în limba română, o ediție a acesteia figurând în biblioteca autoarei. Vă sună cunoscut numele scriitoare care s-a stins din viață în 1953? Ei bine, nu există nicio legătură cu ”mama” lui Harry Potter. Poate, doar talentul literar care le unește peste timp.\r\nMicul Broadway și Balerina de bronz
\r\nPloaia deasă și zgomotoasă ne-a scutit de clasicul deja Tur al Fantomelor pe care și Ocala în oferă, ca alte sute de așezări turistice din Statele Unite. Tăsnetele și fulgerele erau mai adevărate decât efectele de lumini care ne așteptau așa că organizatorii ne-au propus să încheiem această zi îmbibată de natură, vin și cultură cu vizionarea unui spectacol de teatru. Unde altundeva decât la Hippodrome Theatre din centrul Gainesville, considerat drept ”Micul Broadway”. Aici aici sunt jucate cu succes piese devenite celebre ulterior pe Broadway. De 40 de ani de când funcționează această instituție de cultură a fost și a rămas cea mai importantă atracție a orașului. Iar ca programul să fie deplin a doua zi dimineață, când Florida și-a scos iarăși la produs soarele arzător, am încheiat periplul nostru cu o vizită la The Appleton Museum. Aspect particular, acesta aparține College of Central Florida și a fost construit, realizat și dăruit comunității de familia cu același nume. Averea ei a fost făcută din prelucrarea oțelului. O parte din bani au dat viață unei clădiri cu o arhitectură modernă, dar sobră, construită din marmura și travertin. Ea oferă vizitatorilor în cele 8 expoziții permanente peste 18.000 de exponate, de la sculptură mică până la picturi de dimensiuni impresionante - ne-a atras atenția Jim Carrell, curatorul Muzeului. În colecția de artă modernă am reperat bronzul ”Balerina”, una dintre lucrările semnate de artistul român Demetre H. Chiparus (1886-1947). Cu studii la Paris el este exponent al curentulului Art Deco, pe care l-a pus în valoare prin lucrări influențate de baletul rusesc, realizate din aliaje originale din metale luxoase, foarte apreciate de colecționari. Dumitru Chipăruș s-a născut la Dorohoi. Ca o idee lucrarea sa ”Les Girls” a fost vândută în 2007 la Casa Sohetby’s, cu peste 590.000 de euro. Încă un motiv de încântare.\r\nDuminica muzeul era animat ca în zilele de lucru. Ghizii, casierii, lectorii, toți desfășoară aici activități voluntare. O fac cu talent și devoțiune.

Succesul înregistrat de Christian Tour în străinătate - Turcia, Grecia, Spania și Republica Moldova - determină cel mai mare touroperator de chartere din România să se extindă pe noi piețe din Europa Centrală și de Est. “Am început să investim în agenţii de turism din străinătate încă din 2012, când a apărut Memento Turcia, urmat la scurt timp de Memento Spania. La începutul lui 2014, am intrat pe piaţa hotelieră din Grecia, iar, la finele aceluiași an, am deschis la Chișinău, prima agenție sub brandul Christian Tour din afara granițelor României. Vor urma filiale în Ungaria, Serbia și Polonia, și proiectăm curse charter din aceste țări către Grecia, Turcia, Spania” - a declarat Cristian Pandel, fondator și acționar majoritar al Christian Tour.
\r\n“În această vară s-au derulat primele curse charter cu plecare din Chișinău către Grecia.

\r\n
Cel mai important aport la creșterea consumului turistic l-au avut în ultimul deceniu persoanele cu vârstă de peste 55 de ani (peste 35%), urmate de „aspiranți” (26-35 ani) cu 21%, se arată într-un studiu realizat de tur-operatorul Bibi Touring. Totodată, în ultimii 10 ani, persoanele cu venituri mici, sub 200 euro/persoana, au contribuit cu cea mai mare creștere la consumul turistic, respectiv cu 17%, fapt datorat ofertelor speciale de tipul „Înscrieri Timpurii”, oferte care nu existau înainte.
\r\nConsumul intern rămane la pragul de 50% din populație, dar se dezvoltă accelerat turismul extern și vacanțele mixte. Apetitul românilor pentru vacanțele externe a crescut de peste două ori și jumătate în ultimii 10 ani, ajungând la 24% în 2014. Unul din trei români apelează la serviciile unei agenții de turism pentru a cumpăra o vacanță. A disparut cererea pentru hotelurile de 1 stea dar s-a triplat, în schimb, cea pentru 4 și 5 stele - subliniază directorul general Adrian Voican, inițiatorul sondajului.
\r\nMOBIL SAU TABLETA ?
\r\nConform unei analize realizate de Vola.ro, unul dintre cele mai importante portaluri de turism din Romania, peste 47% dintre românii care au căutat vacanțe sau bilete de avion online de la începutul acestui an au folosit un dispozitiv mobil. Procentul este aproape dublu față de anul trecut. „Căutările și achizițiile de pe mobil nu mai reprezintă o nișa, ci o preferință clară, atunci când vine vorba de planificarea vacanțelor. Mobilul este folosit în primul rând pentru research, iar media de căutari este chiar mai mare decât în cazul userilor care intră de pe desktop” - a declarat Manuela Melinescu, marketing manager Vola.ro.

După ce au făcut temenele și i-au periat de scame pe unii politicieni care a promis una-alta pentru turism o parte din liderii industriei și-au dat seama că piesa e cam aceeași numai păpușile se schimbă. S-a obținut, fără îndoială, câte ceva pentru turism dar parcă s-ar fi făcut o favoare acestei industrii care plătește cu vârf și îndesat taxe și impozite. Parcă s-ar fi făcut o favoare că au fost aprobate, după vreo șapte ani, Voucherele de Vacanță. Nu, trist e că au trecut atâția ani și România a pierdut încasări de miliarde de euro. Parcă s-a făcut o favoare că s-a aliniat/redus TVA la mai multe servicii turistice. Nu-i nici pe departe așa. Asta a făcut să crească consumul turistic și puterea de cumpărare a consumatorului de vacanțe. Asta ne-a permis să începem să scoatem capul pe piața concurențială.
\r\nMarea supărare vine frate din altă parte. Tot anul ăsta instituțiile care, chipurile, se ocupă de promovarea României au frecat cu talent menta, cum că nu sunt bani pentru evenimente interne. Prin septembrie-octombrie s-a dat sfoară în țară, că ar fi apărut niște bani - vreo 400.000 de euro, care trebuiau investiți cu grijă în câteva evenimente. Drept urmare, telefoane, mobilizări, termene și muncă pentru proiecte de finanțare. Asociațiile, organizațiile de turism au luat-o de bună: Forum de sănătate, Forum de Incoming, ”Criteriu primei zăpezi” de la Sinaia etc. Au fost finalizate programele, lansate invitațiile pentru participanți interni și externi, așa cum se face, ca la carte. Cu 2-3 zile înainte, zbang!!!, reprezentanții Autorității Naționale pentru Turism au scos din pălărie formula... nu s-a prezentat nimeni la licitație. Drept urmare manifestările s-au anulat. Mediul de afaceri din turism s-a făcut de râs. Se vede că totul se plătește. Ar fi trebuit să avem o Organizație Română de Turism (ORT), care să se ocupe în parteneriat public-privat, de marketingul de țară pe termen lung. Ne-a spus-o WTTC-ul în urmă cu vreo 10 ani. Și n-avem. Dacă am fi avut ORT oamenii de afaceri din turism ar fi știut în părul cui să se înfigă. Și cui să-i arate mușchii. Sigur, ar trebui să-i și aibă! Dacă i-ar avea, după părerea mea, și-ar organiza singuri evenimentele, cu ajutorul partenerilor și sponsorilor. Așa ar arăta că industria pe care o reprezintă e puternică și impune respect.
\r\nPS. În mod sigur pentru evenimentul Gala Turismului Românesc se va prezenta un... câștigător la licitație. Dar nu-mi vine să cred că manifestarea va costa 400.000 de euro. Firește, asta-i bârfă subțire! Cu asta mai rămâne turismul după Gală !

Dupã acalmia care a durat aproape tot anul iatã cã cã spre sfârșitul acestuia brandurile strãine reâncep sã devinã vocale. Sheraton taie panglica în Dorobanți, Rezidor vine cu Park Inn iar la Poiana Brașov e lansat noul... Teleferic.
\nPARK INN se contureazã deja ca un mare succes\n\n
Olivier Harnisch - Executive Vice President și Chief Operating Officer Rezidor Hotel Group, Arno Schwalie - Area Vice President Central Europe și Bert Fol – General Manager Radisson Blu Hotel Bucharest și Park Inn by Radisson Bucharest Hotel & Residence au lansat la București primul hotel din România aparținând rețelei internaționale Park Inn by Radisson. În cadrul unei întâlniri cu presa de profil reprezentanții grupului hotelier Carlson Rezidor au vorbit despre spiritul vibrant al brand-ului hotelier Park Inn.
\n”Suntem încântați sã inaugurãm primul hotel Park Inn by Radisson din România. Camerele noastre au un aer stilat, elegant, asigurând în același timp, confortului oaspeților la cele mai înalte standarde dar și posibilitatea accesãrii unui echipament tehnic de ultimã generație. Sunt convins cã Park Inn va fi liderul pieței ospitalitãții pe segmentul mediu de piațã” - a declarat Bert Fol, directorul general Radisson Blu Hotel, Bucharest și Park Inn by Radisson Bucharest Hotel & Residence.
\n”Investiția la Park Inn Bucharest a durat șapte luni iar valoarea ei se ridicã la 6 milioane de euro. Dupã Abu Dhabi și Oslo, acum operãm al treilea cluster multibrand la București unde avem facilitãți și valori comune, inclusiv management, pentru douã hoteluri aflate în aceeași clãdire - Radisson Blu și Park Inn. Încã de la deschidere au fost zile în care am avut un grad de ocupare de 100%. Este un mesaj puternic pe care dorim sã-l transmitem în piațã, inclusiv pentru viitorii investitori. Calitate și valori comune. Firește, nu ne vom opri aici. Continuãm discuțiile de business în București și cu alți proprietari. Existã mari oportunitãți de a ne poziționa în viitor și în alte orașe atractive ca numãr de locuitori și trafic turistic. E posibil sã ajungem la Timișoara, Brașov, Constanța, Sibiu ori Craiova. La fel de posibil este sã dezvoltãm și alte concepte ale grupului” - a mai adãugat Arno Schwalie - Area Vice President Central Europe.
\nLa rândul sãu Olivier Harnisch - Executive Vice President și Chief Operating Officer Rezidor Hotel Group, a subliniat cã: ”suntem foarte optimiști în ceea ce privește creșterea turismului. 1 din 10 locuri de muncã sunt asigurate pe plan mondial de industria noastrã. Existã multe piețe hoteliere subdimensionate ca spații de cazare, sau supradimensionate dar deficitare sub aspectul calitãții și serviciilor. Aici este spațiul nostru de lucru. Ca o idee România se situeazã prin cele douã hoteluri (cu o capacitate de 763 de camere) în Top 3 din cele 25 de țãri unde este prezent grupul din care fac parte. Numai în 2015 vom inaugura în total 25 de hoteluri pe mapamond. Din Mauritius, Togo, Congo pânã în Nairobi. Suntem foarte mândri de creșterea noastrã”.\n

S-a schimbat lumea de travel în două decenii și jumătate? O proiecție ne este oferită de George Sorin Nicolescu, președintele companiei. ”Un sfert de secol cu un business fără pierderi. Cu toate activitățile concentrate în turism. De la leisure la ticketing, de la consultanță la organizare de evenimente. 25 de ani de pionierat în turismul privat, de experiențe noi și inovative. Este un business de familie, construit cu seriozitate, stabilitate. Suntem solicitați de asemenea de instituțiile statului, la contracte de achiziții publice, unde suntem alături de alți parteneri din travel”.\n\n
\n- Ești unul dintre liderii ANAT și ai Camerei de comerț pe segmentul turistic! S-a dezvoltat piața turismului românesc sau s-a comprimat?
\n- Părerea mea este că s-a decomprimat. Au apărut extrem de multe locații în București și în țară. De la 20 de agenții de turism am ajuns azi la peste 2000. Relațiile agențiilor românești sunt foarte solide și credibile, multe dintre ele fiind apreciate în prestațiile cu partenerii străini. Ca urmare a creșterii pieței de business au intrat și la noi multinaționalele, printre care TUI, Dertour, American Expresss, Carlson Wagonlit etc. Industria s-a dezvoltat foarte mult, peste nivelul cererii. Senzația de saturație se manifestă în anumite perioade. Și asta creează azi o competiție acerbă care, în urmă cu decenii era dezordonată, sălbatică. Acum lucrăm pe baza bunelor practici. Mai e încă de nevoie de 10-15 ani să ne aliniem la ele. Și să înțelegem că, totuși, beneficiarul este pilonul modern, civilizat al tuturor activităților turistice. La această consolidare contribuie și Internetul care a depășit ponderea de 30%, creând o imagine mai clară asupra acestui business.
\n- Circa 70% din încasările industriei provin anual din turismul de evenimente? Totuși, ce-i lipsește României pentru a deveni un jucător redutabil pe piața MICE ?
\n- În turismul de evenimente se conturează proiecții pentru viitoare creșteri. Ce ne lipsește? După părerea mea ar fi trei elemente principale: o imagine bună a României, ancorată încă de presa internațională, în timpul trecut. E nevoie de susținere majoră din partea instituțiilor statului de a lua sub patronajul lor evenimente majore - politice, economice, culturale sportive etc. Fără acest patronaj evenimentele nu vor fi alocate țării noastre. În fine e nevoie de construirea unui Centru de Convenții și Conferințe în afara Palatului Parlamentului. Multifuncțional, cu dotările și facilitățile moderne, așa cum au toate Capitalele sau marile orașe ale lumii.
\n- Ce ne împiedică să facem mai mulți bani din incoming?
\n- Și aici tot cu imaginea țării începem. În această direcție ANT ar trebui să se implice în tratative cu marii tour-operatori internaționali. Aceștia ar putea să promoveze intens România turistică, în broșurile, cataloagele, site-urile lor. Dacă ei vor vinde din ce în ce mai bine România, este clar că interesul pentru această ”marfă turistică” va fi în creștere. Nu avem sprijin pentru organizarea de chartere low-cost dinspre Japonia, Hong Kong, Coreea. Există mare interes pentru a vizita România, dar nu cu avioane de linie ci charter. Apoi avem o politică a vizelor față de turiștii chinezi, defazată comparativ cu cea europeană. Birocrația sufocă această relație de suflet dar și comercială. Mai avem și o problemă locală - continuitatea și păstrarea nivelului serviciilor. Apar noi hoteluri, pensiuni, restaurante. Dar serviciile oferite la început scad la scurt timp după deschidere. Turistul indiferent de unde vine, sancționează aceste aspecte.
\n- Banii sau oamenii? Ce a fost mai important în construcția grupului de turism în acest sfert de secol?
\n- Sunt două componente pe care am sprijinit toată construcția afacerii de familie. Echipa, care trebuie să crească și să devină cât mai performantă. Cine nu știe nu este eliminat. Este învățat să facă ce e nevoie în orice moment. Românul este un tip deschis, universal. Dacă se străduiește, muncește inteligent, creează plus-valoare și profit. Noi am investit în fiecare an acest profit atât în refinanțarea unor evenimente dar și în pregătirea profesională. Așa se explică de ce configurație echipei noastre, cu o medie de vârstă de circa 35 de ani, a cunoscut schimbări relativ mici de-a lungul anilor. Pentru a organiza acțiuni mari trebuie să ai potențial și rezerve cu care să finanțezi manifestări care vor fi decontate peste 6 luni, poate mai mult. Deci ai fond mare, ai clienți mari. Tu trebuie să decizi.
\n- Respectul față de client! Cât de mult valorificăm acest segment în serviciile turistice?
\n- Oricui i-ar fi greu să facă o imagine globală. Eu mă refer la firma Olimpic și pot spune următoarele lucruri: Respectul este pe primul loc. Civilizația business-ului ține de prestigiu și de poziționarea ta pe piață. Atâta timp cât de exemplu nu-ți plătești furnizorii la timp nici clienții tăi nu vor fi mulțumiți. De aceea am ținut să avem întotdeauna transparență, corectitudine, seriozitate, punctualitate în plăți. Timpul și calitatea serviciilor stau la baza respectului în afaceri.
\n- Aveți un mesaj pentru concurență?
\n- Concurenței îi urez să-i meagă cât mai bine. Dar într-un mediu de bune practici. Fără salturi spectaculoase și acțiuni de marketing ostile altor firme. Multe s-au dovedit de-a lungul anilor neproductive. Constanța și profesionalismul își spun cunvântul și în acest caz.
\n- Care sunt Top 3 destinații preferate: în lume, dar în țară?
\n- Îmi place la fel de mult în Bulgaria, SUA, Peru, Alaska, Kenia sau Dubai. În Maramureș, Nordul Moldovei, Delta Dunării sau pe litoral. Peste tot descoperi povești turistice noi. În materie de tehnologii turistice lucrurile stau la fel. Am fost GSA Delta Airlines, am dezvoltat concepte devenite azi clasice. Acum dezvoltăm și o divizie online. Ne inspirăm din experiența câștigată în SUA, unde suntem reprezentanți ai României, la International Pow Wow (IPW), de 23 de ani, cu participare neîntreruptă. Aici tehnologia turistică se exprimă la nivelul cel mai înalt. Ea a remodelat businessul clasic dar și structura obținerii profiturilor! Nu întâmplător suntem unii dintre cei mai apreciați promotori ai turismului cultural, tehnic ori de evenimente în SUA, realmente un continent de atracții fabuloase.

Și bine am făcut pentru că eleganța proprietății Kimberden Farm din Ocala este depășită doar de cea a armăsarilor de rasă antrenați pentru competiții. Industria creată în jurul creșterii cailor de rasă este puternică și profitabilă. În zonă se află cel mai mare număr de cai pe cap de... locuitor din lume.

Desigur și turiștii au de câștigat. Ne-am bucurat din plin de plimbarea cu căruța, cînd la pas când la galop, de-a lungul șoselelor umbrite de stejari seculari, cu ferme risipite pe domenii imense și cai păscând liberi într-o lume desprinsă de ritmul cotidian.

Kimberden Farm este proprietatea Universității din Florida iar tinerii care vin și lucrează aici urmează cursuri despre creșterea cailor și secrete ale sporturilor ecvestre. Sunt în mare parte studenții care-și completează cunoștințele în timpul vacanțelor, al stagiilor practice și de voluntariat.\n\n
\nPizza, Ford și vinuri din coacăze
\nRămânem în același spațiu vintage și în timpul prânzului servit într-un restaurantul Satchel’s Pizza din Gainesville. O harababură de vechituri trăznite, adunate în stil american, care reușesc să creeze prin supraaglomerare un spațiu urban vesel și atractiv. Iar dacă nu ți-a ajuns spațiul interior al restaurantului n-ai decât să vizitezi camerele din laterală de unde poți cumpăra suveniruri trăznite din timpuri retro la prețuri ca atare. Vedeta pizzeriei este de departe microbuzul Ford din 1960, un mini-local pe patru roți închiriat frecvent de către familii cu mai mulți copii. Conform unei vechi tradiții aici nimic nu se aruncă totul se revalorifică. \nDupă o masă colorată - la care ne-am întâlnit cu Ashley Abney, International Sales & Market Development Representative al VISITFLORIDA -, oferta de a vizita o cramă neconvențională s-a dovedit foarte tentantă. Mai ales că la Island Grove Winery producătorii știu să creeze o atmosferă plină de suspans chiar în timpul degustărilor. Licorile sunt foarte căutate pe piață. Marea atracție o reprezintă faptul că vinurile sunt obținute din... afine și coacăze de cultură. De zeci de ani ferma asigură cam 25% din producția statului Florida. Turul proprietății este organizat după ritualul agreat de turiști - plantația, vinăria, stația de îmbuteliere și degustarea finală. Obligatoriu ieșirea se face prin magazinul proprietății unde poți achiziționa vinurile care te-au încântat sau obiecte inscripționate (căni, farfuri, șervețele, șorțuri, tirbușoane etc) imprimate cu fraze amuzante de genul: ”Supa zilei - Vin”, ”Doctorul mi-a spus cum să mă vindec - Bea Vin”, ”Noi muncim pentru pantofi și Vin”, ”Salvează Apa, bea Vin”, ”Prieteni buni, Vinuri bune, Vremuri bune”, ”Vinul - cea mai bună terapie în grup”. După cum ne spune Robyn Aschliman, Events & sales director la Island Grove Wine Company - vinurile sunt obținute prin metode clasice, fără adaosuri de sirop de struguri sau alți substituenți și conțin o cantitate foarte mică de sulfiți. Distribuirea acestora - câteva mii de sticle per serie -, este făcută în rețele de magazine mici, frecventate de cunoscători și amatori de vinuri naturale.
\nNimic despre ”mama” lui Harry Potter
\nȘi pentru că un pahar de vin bun, fie el chiar și din afine de cultură merge băut când citești o carte bună ni se recomandă încă un tur de poveste într-un alt fel de parc natural: Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings Historic State Park. Acesta este un domeniu cultural unde se află amplasată casa memorială a scriitoarei MK Rawlings. Ferma unde a creat aceasta se află în minuscula așezare Cross Creek. Autoarea a rămas în istoria literaturii americane ca o creatoare subtilă, ușor excentrică. Ea a câștigat premiul Pulitzer în 1938 cu romanul ”The Yearling”. Atmosfera anilor 1930 se regăsește în fiecare cameră amenajată a proprietății sale. Însăși curatorul contemporan al casei-muzeu (o voluntară desigur) îi primește pe turiști îmbrăcată în haine ce corespund acelor vremuri. Pe noi ne-a încântat să aflăm că nuvela premiată a fost tradusă în anii ‘60 și în limba română, o ediție a acesteia figurând în biblioteca autoarei. Vă sună cunoscut numele scriitoare care s-a stins din viață în 1953? Ei bine, nu există nicio legătură cu ”mama” lui Harry Potter. Poate, doar talentul literar care le unește peste timp.\nMicul Broadway și Balerina de bronz
\nPloaia deasă și zgomotoasă ne-a scutit de clasicul deja Tur al Fantomelor pe care și Ocala în oferă, ca alte sute de așezări turistice din Statele Unite. Tăsnetele și fulgerele erau mai adevărate decât efectele de lumini care ne așteptau așa că organizatorii ne-au propus să încheiem această zi îmbibată de natură, vin și cultură cu vizionarea unui spectacol de teatru. Unde altundeva decât la Hippodrome Theatre din centrul Gainesville, considerat drept ”Micul Broadway”. Aici aici sunt jucate cu succes piese devenite celebre ulterior pe Broadway. De 40 de ani de când funcționează această instituție de cultură a fost și a rămas cea mai importantă atracție a orașului. Iar ca programul să fie deplin a doua zi dimineață, când Florida și-a scos iarăși la produs soarele arzător, am încheiat periplul nostru cu o vizită la The Appleton Museum. Aspect particular, acesta aparține College of Central Florida și a fost construit, realizat și dăruit comunității de familia cu același nume. Averea ei a fost făcută din prelucrarea oțelului. O parte din bani au dat viață unei clădiri cu o arhitectură modernă, dar sobră, construită din marmura și travertin. Ea oferă vizitatorilor în cele 8 expoziții permanente peste 18.000 de exponate, de la sculptură mică până la picturi de dimensiuni impresionante - ne-a atras atenția Jim Carrell, curatorul Muzeului. În colecția de artă modernă am reperat bronzul ”Balerina”, una dintre lucrările semnate de artistul român Demetre H. Chiparus (1886-1947). Cu studii la Paris el este exponent al curentulului Art Deco, pe care l-a pus în valoare prin lucrări influențate de baletul rusesc, realizate din aliaje originale din metale luxoase, foarte apreciate de colecționari. Dumitru Chipăruș s-a născut la Dorohoi. Ca o idee lucrarea sa ”Les Girls” a fost vândută în 2007 la Casa Sohetby’s, cu peste 590.000 de euro. Încă un motiv de încântare.\nDuminica muzeul era animat ca în zilele de lucru. Ghizii, casierii, lectorii, toți desfășoară aici activități voluntare. O fac cu talent și devoțiune. Ei ne-au explicat cum contribuie turismul cultural la reîncărcarea bateriilor. Pentru unii începe o nouă săptămână de muncă, în mod sigur ați auzit de cuvântul ăsta. Pentru alții, care și-au ales să călătorească în vacanțe, urmează noi zile cu descoperiri memorabile. Din Florida Statelor Unite drum bun, în continuare, pe Planeta turismului.

\n\n\nUn alt element important îl constituie dezvoltarea sistemului de gări aeroportuare și al companiilor aviatice. Un studiu Oxford University relevă că turismul în Emirate și aviația vor asigura până în 2020 aproximativ 1,2 milioane de locuri de muncă și încasări de 88 de miliarde de dolari până în 2030. Pe de altă parte, conform World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC) -, Emiratele Arabe Unite își vor păstra poziția de lider zonal în turism, cu un sector ce crește puternic, până la 31,8 miliarde de dolari în 2018. MENA este tratată ca o destinație turistică în plină expansiune.\n\n\n\nARABIA SAUDITĂ - 55 de proiecte\n\nRețineți această cifră: 11,6 miliarde de dolari. La atât se ridică valoarea celor 55 de proiecte turistice care se derulează în prezent în acest regat. 39 sunt acoperite de investiții în hoteluri de resorturi de vacanță (printre care Hilton Riyadh Hotel & Resort și Millennium Jeddah), în 11 stadioane și complexe sportive în vederea Competițiilor de fotbal din 2017, în două parcuri tematice, două centre de conferințe și un Mall. În 2014 Arabia Saudită a încasat din turism 45,3 miliarde de dolari din care 18,7 miliarde au fost generate de turismul intern, iar aproximativ 27 de miliarde din turismul religios și alte forme de travel. Regatul deține un impresionant număr de locuri istorice cum ar fi ruinele Madain Saleh, monument aflat pe lista UNESCO, uimitoarele Farasan Islands, orașele montane Tais și Jeddah, unde au fost restaurate centrele istorice, precum și o natură foarte primitoare.\n\nPentru accelerarea și creșterea circulației turistice se dorește simplificarea procedurilor de obținere a vizei. De asemenea vor fi introduse noi reglementări pentru stimularea sectorului turistic. Conform studiilor unor firme de consultanță profilul turistului saudit este conturat de următoarele repere definitorii: 38% dintre aceștia își cumpără biletele de avion de la agenții on-line, 22% apelează la același suport electronic pentru a rezerva camerele de hotel iar 17% folosesc siturile specializate ale agențiilor de turism. Saudiții preferă să circule într-un procent de 19%, cel puțin într-o țară din Emirate, dar optează frecvent și pentru Turcia, Egipt și Iordania. Opțiunile pentru calitate sunt foarte ridicate - 25% dintre cei chestionați preferând hotelurile de lux. Croazierele sunt preferate pentru vacanță 22% dintre turiștii interni optând în ultimele douăsprezece luni pentru un asemenea pachet turistic. În general călătorii saudiți folosesc tehnologii moderne pentru informare - smartphon-uri, social media, internet rapid etc. Ei își doresc în general vreme frumoasă - 39%, prețuri rezonabile - 38% respectiv atracții pentru familii - 34%. \n\nLIBAN - ”Live, Love, Lebanon !”\n\nAfectat de război, de-a lungul multor ani, turismul libanez prezintă semne evidente de creștere. Oficialitățile au anunțat că anul trecut industria a cunoscut o dinamică de aproape 20,5% față de anii trecuți. Conform unui raport al Bank Audi Research Center creșterea este susținută și de accelerarea traficului pe Aeroportul Internațional Rafic Hariri din Beirut unde s-a înregistrat un plus de 10,24% față de anul trecut. Pentru 2015 se așteaptă ca veniturile provenite din turism să atingă 6,4 miliarde de dolari. Pentru 2016 SGLB Eco News Report, întocmit de către Institute of International Finance (IIF), prefigurează încasări de circa 7,2 miliarde de dolari. Eforturile de dezvoltare turistică se desfășoară sub semnul campaniei oficiale susținută de Ministerul Turismului. Sloganul ei ”Live, Love, Lebanon” reprezintă o invitație vibrantă într-o țară în care frumusețea monumentelor istorice se îmbină cu atmosfera unei capitale care își redefinește stilul. În cadrul campaniei de promovare un loc principal îl ocupă repoziționarea orașului Beirut, cunoscut și ca ”Micul Paris al Orientului”, pe piața turistică actuală. Căci turismul libanez prin diversitatea produselor sale se armonizează cu parfumul stilat al capitalei, a cărei ambianță cosmopolită, cu magazine de lux, restaurante tradiționale șic, cu uimitoare patrimonii istorice prezintă atracții ce merită frecventate măcar odată în viață. Majoritatea turiștilor străini provin din țările Golfului dar și din Emirate, Egipt ori Iran. Banii pe care-i scot din buzunar pentru călătoriile în Liban oferă ”oxigen economic” industriei turismului care se sprijină pe aproximativ 92.500 de locuri de muncă. \n\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\n\nMulțumiri pentru suportul acordat Agenției de turism WORLD TRAVEL, FLYDUBAI, ARABIAN TRAVEL MARKET (ATM) și CITY SIGHTSEEING DUBAI','ORIENTUL MIJLOCIU - Țiței, avioane și hoteluri (2), MAPAMOND nr.140','','inherit','closed','closed','','4401-autosave-v1','','','2016-04-11 01:35:32','2016-04-10 23:35:32','',4401,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2016/04/11/4401-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4449,1,'2016-04-11 01:35:37','2016-04-10 23:35:37','','SightArabia 036','','inherit','open','closed','','sightarabia-036','','','2016-04-11 01:35:37','2016-04-10 23:35:37','',4401,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/SightArabia-036.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4450,1,'2016-04-11 01:35:38','2016-04-10 23:35:38','','Arabia saudita 048','','inherit','open','closed','','arabia-saudita-048','','','2016-04-11 01:35:38','2016-04-10 23:35:38','',4401,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Arabia-saudita-048.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4451,1,'2016-04-11 01:35:39','2016-04-10 23:35:39','','Arabia Saudita Riad','','inherit','open','closed','','arabia-saudita-riad','','','2016-04-11 01:35:39','2016-04-10 23:35:39','',4401,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Arabia-Saudita-Riad.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4452,1,'2016-04-11 01:35:39','2016-04-10 23:35:39','','Liban 051','','inherit','open','closed','','liban-051','','','2016-04-11 01:35:39','2016-04-10 23:35:39','',4401,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Liban-051.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4453,1,'2016-04-11 01:36:23','2016-04-10 23:36:23','Regiunea Middle East and North Africa (MENA) va fi din ce în ce mai dinamică în ceea ce privește circulația turistică.

\n
Succesul înregistrat de Christian Tour în străinătate - Turcia, Grecia, Spania și Republica Moldova - determină cel mai mare touroperator de chartere din România să se extindă pe noi piețe din Europa Centrală și de Est. “Am început să investim în agenţii de turism din străinătate încă din 2012, când a apărut Memento Turcia, urmat la scurt timp de Memento Spania.

ADRIAN VOICAN: ”Apetitul turistic al românilor s-a dublat!”\n\n
Cel mai important aport la creșterea consumului turistic l-au avut în ultimul deceniu persoanele cu vârstă de peste 55 de ani (peste 35%), urmate de „aspiranți” (26-35 ani) cu 21%, se arată într-un studiu realizat de tur-operatorul Bibi Touring. Totodată, în ultimii 10 ani, persoanele cu venituri mici, sub 200 euro/persoana, au contribuit cu cea mai mare creștere la consumul turistic, respectiv cu 17%, fapt datorat ofertelor speciale de tipul „Înscrieri Timpurii”, oferte care nu existau înainte.
\nConsumul intern rămane la pragul de 50% din populație, dar se dezvoltă accelerat turismul extern și vacanțele mixte. Apetitul românilor pentru vacanțele externe a crescut de peste două ori și jumătate în ultimii 10 ani, ajungând la 24% în 2014. Unul din trei români apelează la serviciile unei agenții de turism pentru a cumpăra o vacanță. A disparut cererea pentru hotelurile de 1 stea dar s-a triplat, în schimb, cea pentru 4 și 5 stele - subliniază directorul general Adrian Voican, inițiatorul sondajului.
\nMOBIL SAU TABLETA ?
\nConform unei analize realizate de Vola.ro, unul dintre cele mai importante portaluri de turism din Romania, peste 47% dintre românii care au căutat vacanțe sau bilete de avion online de la începutul acestui an au folosit un dispozitiv mobil. Procentul este aproape dublu față de anul trecut. „Căutările și achizițiile de pe mobil nu mai reprezintă o nișa, ci o preferință clară, atunci când vine vorba de planificarea vacanțelor. Mobilul este folosit în primul rând pentru research, iar media de căutari este chiar mai mare decât în cazul userilor care intră de pe desktop” - a declarat Manuela Melinescu, marketing manager Vola.ro. O alta dovadă a tehnologizării este că, de la începutul acestui an, peste 64% dintre cei care au cumpărat produse turistice au ales să plătească online cu cardul.\n\nO metodă de plată inedită a prins de asemenea destul de bine în rândul pasionațiilor de călătorii: criptomoneda BitCoin. În doar câteva luni pe Vola.ro se poate observa că prin acest sistem de plată, valoarea coșului de cumpărături este mult mai ridicată, în medie de 420 de euro.','LONELY PLANET: Transilvania este favorita 2016, TRAVEL nr.140','','inherit','closed','closed','','4407-autosave-v1','','','2016-04-11 01:39:15','2016-04-10 23:39:15','',4407,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2016/04/11/4407-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4455,1,'2016-04-11 01:38:16','2016-04-10 23:38:16','','Travel Christian Tour3','','inherit','open','closed','','travel-christian-tour3','','','2016-04-11 01:38:16','2016-04-10 23:38:16','',4407,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Travel-Christian-Tour3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4456,1,'2016-04-11 01:38:39','2016-04-10 23:38:39','','Travel croaziere Ioan Basea','','inherit','open','closed','','travel-croaziere-ioan-basea','','','2016-04-11 01:38:39','2016-04-10 23:38:39','',4407,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Travel-croaziere-Ioan-Basea.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4457,1,'2016-04-11 01:38:52','2016-04-10 23:38:52','','Travel Bibi','','inherit','open','closed','','travel-bibi','','','2016-04-11 01:38:52','2016-04-10 23:38:52','',4407,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Travel-Bibi.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4458,1,'2016-04-11 01:39:26','2016-04-10 23:39:26','','Travel Vola Ro','','inherit','open','closed','','travel-vola-ro','','','2016-04-11 01:39:26','2016-04-10 23:39:26','',4407,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Travel-Vola-Ro.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4459,1,'2016-04-11 01:40:27','2016-04-10 23:40:27','Cea mai mare editură de ghiduri de călătorie din lume, proprietate a trustul BBC Worldwide - Lonely Planet -, a lansat recent \"Best in Travel 2016\".

A disparut cererea pentru hotelurile de 1 stea dar s-a triplat, în schimb, cea pentru 4 și 5 stele - subliniază directorul general Adrian Voican, inițiatorul sondajului.
\r\nMOBIL SAU TABLETA ?
\r\nConform unei analize realizate de Vola.ro, unul dintre cele mai importante portaluri de turism din Romania, peste 47% dintre românii care au căutat vacanțe sau bilete de avion online de la începutul acestui an au folosit un dispozitiv mobil. Procentul este aproape dublu față de anul trecut. „Căutările și achizițiile de pe mobil nu mai reprezintă o nișa, ci o preferință clară, atunci când vine vorba de planificarea vacanțelor. Mobilul este folosit în primul rând pentru research, iar media de căutari este chiar mai mare decât în cazul userilor care intră de pe desktop” - a declarat Manuela Melinescu, marketing manager Vola.ro. O alta dovadă a tehnologizării este că, de la începutul acestui an, peste 64% dintre cei care au cumpărat produse turistice au ales să plătească online cu cardul.\r\n![\"Travel](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Travel-Vola-Ro.jpg\")
\r\n\r\n\r\nO metodă de plată inedită a prins de asemenea destul de bine în rândul pasionațiilor de călătorii: criptomoneda BitCoin. În doar câteva luni pe Vola.ro se poate observa că prin acest sistem de plată, valoarea coșului de cumpărături este mult mai ridicată, în medie de 420 de euro.','LONELY PLANET: Transilvania este favorita 2016, TRAVEL nr.140','','inherit','closed','closed','','4407-revision-v1','','','2016-04-11 01:40:27','2016-04-10 23:40:27','',4407,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2016/04/11/4407-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4460,1,'2016-04-11 01:41:22','2016-04-10 23:41:22','','Vinvest 077','','inherit','open','closed','','vinvest-077','','','2016-04-11 01:41:22','2016-04-10 23:41:22','',4404,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Vinvest-077.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4461,1,'2016-04-11 01:41:37','2016-04-10 23:41:37','','Vinvest 077','','inherit','open','closed','','vinvest-077-2','','','2016-04-11 01:41:37','2016-04-10 23:41:37','',4404,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Vinvest-077-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4462,1,'2016-04-11 01:41:38','2016-04-10 23:41:38','','Vinvest 153','','inherit','open','closed','','vinvest-153','','','2016-04-11 01:41:38','2016-04-10 23:41:38','',4404,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Vinvest-153.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4463,1,'2016-04-11 01:41:39','2016-04-10 23:41:39','','Vinvest 170','','inherit','open','closed','','vinvest-170','','','2016-04-11 01:41:39','2016-04-10 23:41:39','',4404,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Vinvest-170.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4464,1,'2016-04-11 01:41:40','2016-04-10 23:41:40','','Vinvest 179','','inherit','open','closed','','vinvest-179','','','2016-04-11 01:41:40','2016-04-10 23:41:40','',4404,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Vinvest-179.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4465,1,'2016-04-11 01:42:03','2016-04-10 23:42:03','Producătorii de vin, companii de utilaje, servicii și accesorii, instituții și reprezentanții mass-media au continuat Campania Iubesc Vinul Românesc prin Gala Vinului Nou și Vechi, desfășurat în ultima decadă a lunii octombrie la Ambery Hall Lights al Centrului de Afaceri Green Gate din București.\n\n\n\nAșteptările au fost mari dar și răspunsurile specialiștilor și vizitatorilor pe măsură. „Iubesc Vinul Românesc, Gala Vinului Nou și Vechi 2015” sunt manifestări profunde.

\nPRO TURISM crede în ”Renașterea prin apă”\n\n
THE GUARDIAN: ”Bucureștiul surprinde prin vibrația cosmopolită!”\n\nJurnalistul britanic Norm Longley recomandă într-un reportaj publicat în The Guardian mai multe atracții ale Capitalei României. Printre favorite sunt menționate Palatul Parlamentului, Muzeul Satului şi Librăria Cărtureşti. \"Este corect să spunem că este puţin probabil ca Bucureştiul să câştige vreun premiul pentru frumuseţe sau stil, dar cu toate acestea, capitala României surprinde mulţi turişti cu energia şi vibraţia cosmopolită\". Longley menţionează și că, în perioada interbelică Bucureştiul era numit \"Parisul Estului\" iar această titulatură a fost una corectă până la un punct. Cu toate acestea, în prezent, din punct de vedere urbanistic, domină o arhitectură socialistă, rezultat al proiectului de sistematizare impus ”de fostul dictator Nicolae Ceauşescu, în anii \'80, cei mai sumbri ani de comunism în România”.
\nCentrul de Resurse Pentru Cetățenie Activă (CRCA) a anunțat deschiderea primului club de fitness și aerobic non-profit din România. Social Gym este un proiect dedicat persoanelor active, interesate de un stil de viață sănătos, dar și celor dornici de implicarea socială. ”Deschis în zona Timpuri Noi din București, Social Gym este un concept nou în țara noastră. El are ca scop dezvoltarea unei comunități a oamenilor activi, preocupați de sport și nutriție echilibrată, dar și de a promova un comportament responsabil față de societate” - apreciază Rodica Lupu, preṣedintele CRCA.\n\nPentru a încuraja implicarea activă, clubul Social Gym oferă posibilitatea de a achita orele petrecute la Social Gym donând același număr de ore la CRCA, organizație neguvernamentală, non-profit ṣi apoliticǎ, pe diverse proiecte sociale. În cele două studiouri se pot practica Aerobic, Functional Fitness, Spinning, Dance, AeroCombat, 360 Pump, Bosu Cardio & Strength, Step Power & Dance, Pilates, Yoga etc. \nALEX BARBU
\nCEA MAI MARE ORGANIZAȚIE DE TRANSPORT DE PERSOANE DIN EUROPA...
\n...A aniversat la București 30 de ani de activitate. Evenimentul a fost marcat de o conferință internațională la care au participat numeroși lideri ce au contribuit la dezvoltarea acestei companii. Organizaţia Eurolines, cu sediul la Bruxelles, reuneşte cei mai importanţi transportatori internaţionali de persoane din Europa, are 25 de membri în 23 de ţări şi operează o reţea de 600 de destinaţii. Sub brandul Eurolines se regăsesc cele mai vechi şi respectate companii europene de transport cu autocarul – Deutsche Touring, National Express, Transdev, ALSA, Veolia Transport. Structura Eurolines e asigurată de peste 500 de autocare moderne. De asemenea tot în acest an Grupul Eurolines România a marcat 20 de ani de activitate pe piaţa de transport şi turism din România. Cu 20 de companii membre, 78 de puncte de lucru, o echipă de 700 de persoane și cu 100 de milioane de euro cifră de afaceri totală estimată pentru 2015, Eurolines România este lider de piaţă pe segmentele sale de business - a declarat Dragoș Anastasiu, președintele Grupului.
\nPUTNA VA FI GATA \n\nPână la sfârșitul anului vor fi încheiate lucrările de reabilitare ale Mănăstirii Putna din județul Suceava. Proiectul are o valoare de 3,3 milioane de euro, dintre care 2,5 provin din fonduri europene. Comisarul European Corina Crețu consideră că Mănăstirea Putna se va bucura de aprecierile Consiliului Europei, cel puțin în aceeași măsură ca frescele restaurate de la Mănăstirea Dragomirna, ce a fost premiată în 2014.\n\nROMÂNIA NU MAI E ÎN NECKERMANN\nȚara noastră nu va mai fi prezentă în catalogul tipărit al marelui turoperator internațional Neckermann. Deși conducerea Autorității Naționale pentru Turism (ANT) nu a oferit o explicație în legătură cu subiectul, decizia nemților are la bază o explicație foarte simplă - nu se plătește nu se tipărește. Noii lideri ai ANT visează în același timp cai verzi pe pereți, cum ar fi simplificarea acordării vizelor pentru turiștii chinezi, în doar câteva zile; atragerea de noi piețe cum ar fi Dubai, India, Polonia ori Spania. Despre redeschiderea unor Birouri de turism ale României (unul e cel de la Chișinău), care aveau un rol strategic în străinătate, deocamdată nu există nicio intenție. \n\n ”ICOANE. FRUMUSEȚE CEREASCÃ PE PÃMÂNT”\n\n Pânã pe 10 ianuarie 2016 Muzeul Național Controceni gãzduiește în spațiile medievale expoziția \"Icoane. Frumuseþe cereascã pe pãmânt” Aici sunt reunite circa 60 de creaþii ale profesorului George Kordis (Grecia), reprezentând principalele teme iconografice, marile praznice creºtine ºi sfinþii martiri ai Bisericii Ortodoxe. George Kordis este nãscut în Grecia, unde a studiat teologia la Universitatea din Atena. În anii \'80, a lucrat alãturi de pãrintele iconograf Symeon Symeou, dupã care ºi-a continuat studiile postuniversitare la Boston pentru Masterul în teologie. Dupã revenirea la Atena în 1990, ºi-a perfecþionat studiile și a obþinut Doctoratul în teologie. Kordis este profesor de iconografie la Universitatea din Atena, unde predã arta pictãrii icoanelor. Traveller Magazin este Partener Media al acestei manifestãri. \n”DESCOPERĂ CALEA ARADULUI - pe drumuri de frontieră”
\nDupă ”Drumul fagilor în Bucovina”, realizat împreună cu Radio România în anul 2013, Radio Rai, serviciul public din Italia, a revenit în țara noastră pentru o nouă serie de emisiuni. Ele au fost dedicate prezenţelor italiene şi patrimoniului cultural, istoric şi spiritual din vestul României, în ultimii 25 de ani, într-o regiune care constituie un model intercultural şi interconfesional în Europa. Proiectului ”Calea Aradului – pe drumuri de frontieră” i s-a alăturat în acest an şi Radio Vaticana, postul oficial al Sfântului Scaun. Activitățile de documentare au fost susținute de Ambasada Italiei la Bucureşti, de Comunitatea Italofonă de Radioteleviziune, şi cu sprijinul Primăriei Municipiului Arad, al Centrului Naţional de Informare şi Promovare Turistică Arad şi al Consulatului Onorific al Italiei la Arad.

Cu 20 de companii membre, 78 de puncte de lucru, o echipă de 700 de persoane și cu 100 de milioane de euro cifră de afaceri totală estimată pentru 2015, Eurolines România este lider de piaţă pe segmentele sale de business - a declarat Dragoș Anastasiu, președintele Grupului.
\r\nPUTNA VA FI GATA \r\n\r\nPână la sfârșitul anului vor fi încheiate lucrările de reabilitare ale Mănăstirii Putna din județul Suceava. Proiectul are o valoare de 3,3 milioane de euro, dintre care 2,5 provin din fonduri europene. Comisarul European Corina Crețu consideră că Mănăstirea Putna se va bucura de aprecierile Consiliului Europei, cel puțin în aceeași măsură ca frescele restaurate de la Mănăstirea Dragomirna, ce a fost premiată în 2014.\r\n\r\nROMÂNIA NU MAI E ÎN NECKERMANN\r\nȚara noastră nu va mai fi prezentă în catalogul tipărit al marelui turoperator internațional Neckermann. Deși conducerea Autorității Naționale pentru Turism (ANT) nu a oferit o explicație în legătură cu subiectul, decizia nemților are la bază o explicație foarte simplă - nu se plătește nu se tipărește. Noii lideri ai ANT visează în același timp cai verzi pe pereți, cum ar fi simplificarea acordării vizelor pentru turiștii chinezi, în doar câteva zile; atragerea de noi piețe cum ar fi Dubai, India, Polonia ori Spania. Despre redeschiderea unor Birouri de turism ale României (unul e cel de la Chișinău), care aveau un rol strategic în străinătate, deocamdată nu există nicio intenție. \r\n\r\n ”ICOANE. FRUMUSEȚE CEREASCÃ PE PÃMÂNT”\r\n\r\n Pânã pe 10 ianuarie 2016 Muzeul Național Controceni gãzduiește în spațiile medievale expoziția \"Icoane.

Traveller Magazin este Partener Media al acestei manifestãri. \r\n”DESCOPERĂ CALEA ARADULUI - pe drumuri de frontieră”
\r\nDupă ”Drumul fagilor în Bucovina”, realizat împreună cu Radio România în anul 2013, Radio Rai, serviciul public din Italia, a revenit în țara noastră pentru o nouă serie de emisiuni. Ele au fost dedicate prezenţelor italiene şi patrimoniului cultural, istoric şi spiritual din vestul României, în ultimii 25 de ani, într-o regiune care constituie un model intercultural şi interconfesional în Europa. Proiectului ”Calea Aradului – pe drumuri de frontieră” i s-a alăturat în acest an şi Radio Vaticana, postul oficial al Sfântului Scaun. Activitățile de documentare au fost susținute de Ambasada Italiei la Bucureşti, de Comunitatea Italofonă de Radioteleviziune, şi cu sprijinul Primăriei Municipiului Arad, al Centrului Naţional de Informare şi Promovare Turistică Arad şi al Consulatului Onorific al Italiei la Arad.

Sheraton taie panglica în Dorobanți, Rezidor vine cu Park Inn iar la Poiana Brașov e lansat noul... Teleferic.
\r\nPARK INN se contureazã deja ca un mare succes\r\n\r\n
Olivier Harnisch - Executive Vice President și Chief Operating Officer Rezidor Hotel Group, Arno Schwalie - Area Vice President Central Europe și Bert Fol – General Manager Radisson Blu Hotel Bucharest și Park Inn by Radisson Bucharest Hotel & Residence au lansat la București primul hotel din România aparținând rețelei internaționale Park Inn by Radisson. În cadrul unei întâlniri cu presa de profil reprezentanții grupului hotelier Carlson Rezidor au vorbit despre spiritul vibrant al brand-ului hotelier Park Inn.
\r\n”Suntem încântați sã inaugurãm primul hotel Park Inn by Radisson din România. Camerele noastre au un aer stilat, elegant, asigurând în același timp, confortului oaspeților la cele mai înalte standarde dar și posibilitatea accesãrii unui echipament tehnic de ultimã generație. Sunt convins cã Park Inn va fi liderul pieței ospitalitãții pe segmentul mediu de piațã” - a declarat Bert Fol, directorul general Radisson Blu Hotel, Bucharest și Park Inn by Radisson Bucharest Hotel & Residence.
\r\n”Investiția la Park Inn Bucharest a durat șapte luni iar valoarea ei se ridicã la 6 milioane de euro. Dupã Abu Dhabi și Oslo, acum operãm al treilea cluster multibrand la București unde avem facilitãți și valori comune, inclusiv management, pentru douã hoteluri aflate în aceeași clãdire - Radisson Blu și Park Inn. Încã de la deschidere au fost zile în care am avut un grad de ocupare de 100%. Este un mesaj puternic pe care dorim sã-l transmitem în piațã, inclusiv pentru viitorii investitori. Calitate și valori comune. Firește, nu ne vom opri aici. Continuãm discuțiile de business în București și cu alți proprietari. Existã mari oportunitãți de a ne poziționa în viitor și în alte orașe atractive ca numãr de locuitori și trafic turistic. E posibil sã ajungem la Timișoara, Brașov, Constanța, Sibiu ori Craiova. La fel de posibil este sã dezvoltãm și alte concepte ale grupului” - a mai adãugat Arno Schwalie - Area Vice President Central Europe.
\r\nLa rândul sãu Olivier Harnisch - Executive Vice President și Chief Operating Officer Rezidor Hotel Group, a subliniat cã: ”suntem foarte optimiști în ceea ce privește creșterea turismului. 1 din 10 locuri de muncã sunt asigurate pe plan mondial de industria noastrã. Existã multe piețe hoteliere subdimensionate ca spații de cazare, sau supradimensionate dar deficitare sub aspectul calitãții și serviciilor. Aici este spațiul nostru de lucru. Ca o idee România se situeazã prin cele douã hoteluri (cu o capacitate de 763 de camere) în Top 3 din cele 25 de țãri unde este prezent grupul din care fac parte. Numai în 2015 vom inaugura în total 25 de hoteluri pe mapamond. Din Mauritius, Togo, Congo pânã în Nairobi. Suntem foarte mândri de creșterea noastrã”.\r\n

E, se pare, un unicat european. Mai puțin cunoscut e fratele său ucrainean ”Tramvaiul din Carpați”, din Vyhoda (regiunea Ivano-Frankvisk).\r\nÎntre județul Maramureș și zona amintită e o aruncătură de băț de cam... 50 de kilometri. Ele au în comun două dintre ultimele trenulețe funcționale ce circulă pe linii cu ecartament îngust, un patrimoniu cultural și natural apărate de crestele Munților Carpați. Cea mai sustenabilă valorificare a acestora nu aparține, cu siguranță, exploatării industriale a lemnului ci industriei turistice.\r\n\r\n\r\nCînd vorbim de produse ce pot fi dezvoltate la nivel transfrontalier rețeta pare că va avea succes. Sunt aspecte la care se gândesc și specialiștii ucraineni de la ”Tourist Association of Ivano-Frankivsk Region”, organizație condusă de Roman Shevchyk, o mai veche cunoștință a revistei noastre. Programul transfrontalier ”Mocănițele din Carpați” se încheie chiar în această lună. El beneficiat de finanțare europeană și are ca parteneri Administrația de stat a regiunii, Consiliul Local al comunei Vyhoda și Administrația Rezervației Naturale Munții Maramureșului.\r\n\r\nMocănița de pe Valea Vaserului\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"4354,4353,4352,4351\"]\r\n\r\nToate amintirile întipărite în memorie se leagă de o experiență montană... exotică. Ruta forestieră pe care am străbătut-o are aproximativ 60 de kilometri dar traseul turistic este de circa 20 de kilometri până la stația Paltin. Calea ferată cu ecartament îngust (amenajată între 1924-1932, în perioada Imperiului Austro-Ungar) este parte dintr-un patrimoniu tehnic unic. Administrată de Căile Ferate Forestiere (CFF) Vișeul de Sus ea este considerată ultimul vestigiu funcțional pe care mai circulă trenuri trase de locomotive cu abur. Sunt încă folosite la transportul lemnului din munți. Cam în ultimii cinci ani activitățile turistice au început să devină o bună concurență a activităților industriale. Prin 2010 călătoreau pe Valea Vaserului și vizitau Gara, circa 18.000 de turiști. Anul trecut au sosit aici circa 30.000.\r\n\r\nO parte dintre curioși au venit din Germania, Italia, Austria, Ungaria, Franța, Polonia, Elveția. Dar și din Taiwan, Hong Kong, Ghana ori Islanda. După cum ne spun rangerșii Cristina și Vlad, de la Rezervația Naturală Munții Maramureșului, în acest an e posibil ca numărul lor să depășească 40.000. Mulți au călătorit cu garniturile turistice trase de locomotivele ”O&K” (a fost construită în 1910 și e cea mai veche din patrimoniu), ”Krauss” (1921), și alte 5 locomotive fabricate la Reșița între anii 1953-1955. Dacă ne raportăm la populația orașului Vișeul de Sus (circa 15.000 de locuitori), ne dăm seama că turismul poate aduce mari beneficii comunității locale. Și asta se vede cu ochiul liber. Au apărut spații de cazare moderne, hotelul ”Gabriela” (săli de conferințe, de evenimente, centru Spa etc) anunțând timpul unor alte generații de călători.\r\n\r\nEi au, de câteva săptămâni, ocazia să afle despre Mocăniță și Valea Vaserului și de pe platforma digitală a Google Cultural Institute, ce ofera accesul la patrimoniul cultural-istoric a celor mai importante locuri din lume. Călătoria durează circa 6-7 ore. Un bilet dus-întors costă echivalentul a 12 euro. Mai trebuie să știți că în 2011 a fost amplasat în Gara CFF Viseu singurul tren-hotel din Romania - Carpatia Express. Nu circulă, iar o noapte de cazare într-un compartiment dublu costă 64 de lei.\r\n\r\nTramvaiul de la Vyhoda\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"4358,4357,4356,4355\"]\r\n\r\nCu circa 3.500 de locuitori Vyhoda se prezintă ca un orășel de buzunar. Cu toate acestea a trecut prin vremuri grele. După ce a fost privatizată cu mari investitori Fabrica de prelucrare a lemnului a intrat în faliment. Cum? Numai ei știu! O asociație de oameni de afaceri ucraineni au repus-o pe picioare și de atunci lucrurile merg ca pe roate. Cel puțin așa susține Matseliukh Mykhailo. E primarul așezării din 1998. A fost reales la fiecare 4 ani. Circa 700 de locuitori lucrează la Fabrica de pal melaminat ”Uniplytu” și încă vreo sută la o întreprindere de lacuri și vopseluri.\r\n\r\nAdăugând pe cei din administrație, sistemul sanitar, învățământ, ne dăm seama că primarul spune adevărul: orașul e în căutare de forță de muncă. ”Tramvaiul din Carpați” are legătură cu toate acestea. El a fost folosit ca mijloc de transport până prin anii ‘60 când au fost introduse pentru transportul lemnului, funicularele forestiere. Practic, Mocănița din Carpați și-a încetat existența prin 1990. Linia cu ecartament îngust (770 milimetri) a fost construită de întreprinzătorul austriac Leopold Popper von Podgari în secolul al XIX-lea pentru a fi folosită la transportul materialelor lemnoase din munți către unitățile de prelucrare.\r\n\r\nPe la 1890, exista o linie ferată de 3 kilometri ce furniza materiale gaterului din comuna Vyhoda, primul din această parte a Carpaților. Mocănița era trasă pe atunci de cai. Mai târziu au fost înlocuiți de locomotive cu abur. Baronul austriac a făcut o avere fabuloasă și cu o parte din ea și-a construit în 1855 o reședință de vară. Chiar și când era în paragină, tot amintea de stilul vilelor elvețiene.\r\n\r\nProiectul ”Mocănițele din Carpați” a prevăzut și reconstruirea fostei case unde a locuit fondatorul austriac. Acum ea se învecinează cu Primăria și centrul orașului Vyhoda. În clădirea restaurată va funcționa ”Centrul patrimoniului mocăniței din Vyhoda”, care alături de Tramvaiul din Carpați va deveni atracția turistică nr.1 a regiunii. Lucrările sunt susținute de conducerea Fabricii ”Uniplytu”ce și-a propus să finanțeze și amenajarea unei gări turistice dotată cu toate facilitățile. ”Am învățat foarte multe de la colegii noștri români. Ne-am inspirat și am pus în practică și la Tramvaiul din Carpați o parte din experiențele trăite de aceștia.\r\n\r\nNu avem locomotive cu aburi ca pe Valea Vaserului. Folosim un automotor modernizat care tractează vagoanele. O parte dintre ele au fost salvate de la cimitirele de fier vechi. Le-am restaurat și acum sunt funcționale. Unele sunt acoperite, altele descoperite. Noi le spunem vagoane cabriolet. Avem încă foarte mult de lucru, dar potențialul pentru programe turistice este uriaș” - ne spunea directorul Tramvaiului Yatskiv Liubomer, o adevărată enciclopedie vie.\r\n\r\nEl a fost ghidul călătoriei noastre care a avut stații de poveste la Izvoarele minerale (Naftusya e o apă magică), la horinca îndulcită cu miere, în țara ”Pinului Pitic”, a magicii rezervații în care crește floarea... Noroiul mlăștinos, dar și la Complexul balnear. În urmă cu decenii aici era locul unde vedeau pentru refacere și recuperare cosmonauții sovietici.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nFOTO: VASILE COSTRUȘ','Trenuri de poveste in muntii Carpati, REDESCOPERA ROMANIA nr. 139','','inherit','closed','closed','','4300-revision-v1','','','2016-05-03 23:54:05','2016-05-03 21:54:05','',4300,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2016/05/03/4300-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4484,1,'2016-05-16 10:28:45','2016-05-16 08:28:45','','Afis 500 de ani bere','','inherit','open','closed','','afis-500-de-ani-bere','','','2016-05-16 10:28:45','2016-05-16 08:28:45','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Afis-500-de-ani-bere.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4486,1,'2016-05-23 15:30:06','2016-05-23 13:30:06','Ninge cu aripi de îngeri în Maramureș, aripi prelinse de pe pereții bisericilor din lemn.

Ninge cu coconi căzuți din poveștile iernilor. Greu de aflat câte din tradițiile de aici vor rămâne vii. Marea speranță vine tocmai de la copiii cu obrajii îmbujorați, alunecați parcă din ramele picturilor naive. Suntem ceea ce cântăm, dansăm, bem, mâncăm, respirăm etc. Aici în Maramureș - noi ne-am răsucit drumurile între Baia Mare, Ocna Șugatag, Sighetu Marmației și am alunecat printre bisericile din patrimoniu UNESCO -, toate acestea se dovedesc mai vii și mai actuale pe muchia Sărbătorilor dintre ani. Împreună cu doi promotori de turism Pușa (alături în fotografia editorialului) și Cristian Jakab am încercat să înțelegem cât a reușit să pompeze Maramureșul istoric și cultural în Maramureșul turistic!\r\n\r\n
Ninge în Maramureș, cu mere și nuci, cu grâu încolțit, cu colaci, cu cozonaci, cu slănină cu ceapă, cu șorici, cu cârnați, cu horincă, cu clopuri, cu opinci, cu costume croite de meșteri populari, din ce în ce mai rare, din ce în ce mai puțini. Unele dintre haine au ajuns să coste cam cât o Dacie Logan. Le vedem deja în muzee și în colecții particulare. Artizanii pun suflet în ceea ce fac. Maramureșul are viața lui, iar lupta dintre tradiție și modernitate are farmecul ei. Turismul invită generațiile X, Y ori Z să deschidă lacătele meșteșugurilor - ce amintesc de moși și strămoși -, cu chei online, cu tablete, cu aplicații mobile, cu Facebook, Twiter etc. Noi vă urăm să călătoriți cât mai mult în lumea... reală.

\r\n@PESCATURISM ÎN DELTĂ... Pescaturismul este un nou concept propus de pescarii din Delta Dunării pentru a atrage turiștii în zonă. Vizitatorii vor putea experimenta viața de pescar într-o gospodărie tradițională. Proiectul a costat 30.000 de euro și este finanțat de fundația fostului campion Ivan Patzaichin. De la Tulcea, turiștii vor fi duși cu șalupe rapide la Mila 23, unde vor fi întâmpinați de săteni, care îi vor plimba cu lotcile pe canalele Deltei Dunării. Totodată, împreună cu sătenii vor scoate peștele din plasele pescărești. Tarifele sunt modice și includ o incursiune de trei ore și jumatate, demonstrații de pescuit și o vizita la un adăpost pescăresc unde turiștii vor fi întâmpinați cu muzică și borș de pește tradițional. După aceea ei vor înnopta în colibele pescarilor sau în pensiuni. În același scop se lucrează la amenajarea a două noi construcții în comuna Mila 23.
\r\n@ A APĂRUT ȘI PNAT. Sătui de indeciziile ANAT, o serie de patroni de agenții de turism au decis să înființeze propria structură patronală care să le reprezinte cu adevărat interesele: Patronatul Național al Agențiilor de Turism (PNAT). După cum a anunțat președintele noii organizații dr. Dragoș Rădulescu, decanul Facultății de Relații Economice Internaționale de la Universitatea Dimitrie Cantemir, ”noua structură se va afilia la Federația Patronatelor din Turismul Romanesc (FPTR)”. Într-o primă ieșire pe piață PNAT a atacat intenția ANAT de a majora capitalul social al agențiilor de turism de la 200 de lei la 25.000 de lei. \"Dacă acest scenariu va fi pus în practică, vor fi amenințate cu dispariția peste 1.000 de companii de travel și circa 3.000 de agenți de turism își vor pierde locurile de muncă\" - a declarat Rădulescu.\r\n![\"Delta](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Delta-105.jpg\")

@ O VESTE FOARTE BUNĂ ! Începând cu 1 decembrie, toate companiile aeriene acceptă și plata în lei de la agenții, iar românii nu vor mai trebui să suporte un coeficient de risc valutar care ajungea uneori până la 1-2% din prețul biletului. Asta după ce timp de 25 de ani agențiile de turism au achitat în valută biletele de avion către companiile aeriene, indiferent dacă primeau tot valută de la românii către care le vindeau, sau lei. Agenții de turism vor emite biletul în moneda în care va plăti consumatorul. Plata biletelor de avion în moneda națională este regulă în țările UE.

Circa 147.000 de români și-au petrecut sărbătorile în țară, în scădere cu 3,5% față de anul trecut, cheltuind aproximativ 140 milioane de lei, cu 1,5% mai puțin comparativ cu anul precedent - arată un studiu realizat de Federația Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR). În străinătate au călătorit, prin intermediul agențiilor de turism, pentru petrecerea sărbătorilor de iarnă, aproape 8200 de turişti, în scădere cu 5% față de anul 2015. Aceştia au cheltuit numai pentru servicii turistice, 4,8 milioane euro, sumă aproximativ egală cu cea din anul anterior. Se menţine şi în acest an, tendința turiștilor de a alege mai ales destinații în România, datorită siguranței pe care o oferă țara noastră.

Ile crede că organizația, ale cărei activități au intrat într-un con de umbră în ultimii ani, trebuie să se concentreze pe următoarele obiective: atragerea de noi membri și creșterea credibilității în piață, afilierea la organisme internaționale, implicarea în susținerea, crearea unor grupuri de lucru care să reprezinte industria în relația instituțională cu mediul public și privat etc. Din FIHR fac parte 118 hoteluri cu aproape 11.000 de camere. În conducerea organizației au fost aleși Dan Volentir și Ștefan Balaur vicepreședinți, Mihail Acatrinei, Bert Fol, Răzvan Pârjol sau Frank Reul ca membri în board.
\r\n@ MASTERCARD A ANUNȚAT LANSAREA platformei priceless.com pentru posesorii de carduri MasterCard și Maestro din România. Aceștia pot beneficia de avantaje în destinații de vacanță și de afaceri în circa 40 de orașe și teritorii, prin înregistrarea în platforma priceless.com/romania. Beneficiile includ pachete speciale pentru hoteluri, prețuri preferențiale în restaurante, servicii și privilegii la cumpărături, cât și acces la unele spectacole și evenimente. La lansarea din România, platforma includea peste 6.000 de oferte și experiențe accesate prin rezervare online.
\r\n@PESCATURISM ÎN DELTĂ... Pescaturismul este un nou concept propus de pescarii din Delta Dunării pentru a atrage turiștii în zonă. Vizitatorii vor putea experimenta viața de pescar într-o gospodărie tradițională. Proiectul a costat 30.000 de euro și este finanțat de fundația fostului campion Ivan Patzaichin. De la Tulcea, turiștii vor fi duși cu șalupe rapide la Mila 23, unde vor fi întâmpinați de săteni, care îi vor plimba cu lotcile pe canalele Deltei Dunării. Totodată, împreună cu sătenii vor scoate peștele din plasele pescărești. Tarifele sunt modice și includ o incursiune de trei ore și jumatate, demonstrații de pescuit și o vizita la un adăpost pescăresc unde turiștii vor fi întâmpinați cu muzică și borș de pește tradițional. După aceea ei vor înnopta în colibele pescarilor sau în pensiuni. În același scop se lucrează la amenajarea a două noi construcții în comuna Mila 23.
\r\n@ A APĂRUT ȘI PNAT. Sătui de indeciziile ANAT, o serie de patroni de agenții de turism au decis să înființeze propria structură patronală care să le reprezinte cu adevărat interesele: Patronatul Național al Agențiilor de Turism (PNAT). După cum a anunțat președintele noii organizații dr. Dragoș Rădulescu, decanul Facultății de Relații Economice Internaționale de la Universitatea Dimitrie Cantemir, ”noua structură se va afilia la Federația Patronatelor din Turismul Romanesc (FPTR)”. Într-o primă ieșire pe piață PNAT a atacat intenția ANAT de a majora capitalul social al agențiilor de turism de la 200 de lei la 25.000 de lei. \"Dacă acest scenariu va fi pus în practică, vor fi amenințate cu dispariția peste 1.000 de companii de travel și circa 3.000 de agenți de turism își vor pierde locurile de muncă\" - a declarat Rădulescu.
\r\n@ O VESTE FOARTE BUNĂ ! Începând cu 1 decembrie, toate companiile aeriene acceptă și plata în lei de la agenții, iar românii nu vor mai trebui să suporte un coeficient de risc valutar care ajungea uneori până la 1-2% din prețul biletului. Asta după ce timp de 25 de ani agențiile de turism au achitat în valută biletele de avion către companiile aeriene, indiferent dacă primeau tot valută de la românii către care le vindeau, sau lei. Agenții de turism vor emite biletul în moneda în care va plăti consumatorul. Plata biletelor de avion în moneda națională este regulă în țările UE.

Pauw, olandez de origine, spune că există un mare potențial al pieței locale și regionale. ”Motoarele de creștere ale vânzărilor vor fi într-o proporție de 50% cazarea, restul veniturilor urmând să provină de la segmentele MICE, F&B și SPA. Estimăm că în 2016 vom avea un grad de ocupare de 50% și vom înregistra o cifră de afaceri de 2,5 milioane de euro. 90% din aceste finanțe vor proveni de pe segmentul de business.

În lumea secolului 21, dată pe repede înainte, în care timpul costă foarte mulți bani, oamenii optează în special pentru dejunuri, pentru restaurante tip-fast food, cu meniuri rapide. Cu toate acestea lanțurile hoteliere românești ori străine, dețin în fiecare unitate cel puțin un restaurant clasic. Aici nu te poți face că faci meserie și ai nevoie de cel puțin un Maître D, șeful de sală, care azi e mai mult decât atât. Șeful de sală este un profesionist care dirijează toate componentele servirii: de la bucătărie, armonizarea vinurilor, recomandările, până la, lucru extrem de important, adresarea mulțumirii finale și invitarea consumatorului de a reveni la acel restaurant. Toate acestea deoarece clientul vine la restaurant pentru a socializa și a i se da importanța cuvenită. Aspectele amintite nu pot fi rezolvate prin tehnologii, pot fi doar completate.

\r\n\r\n\r\n- Ce câştigă meseria de Maître d’Hotel prin organizarea acestor Concursuri ?\r\n\r\n- Concursurile noastre - iată am ajuns la a 13-a ediție a Trofeului Marian Bugan, respectiv la a 19-a ediție a competiției profesionale -, își propun să remedieze o percepție defectuoasă. Ne aflăm în fața unei greșeli, care persistă. E bine că s-a investit foarte mult în lux, în dotări, în mobilier. Dar e regretabil că nu s-a făcut și în oameni, în pregătirea profesională din turism. Clientul percepe acest lucru și nu mai revine unde nu s-a simțit confortabil. E nevoie de o recalibrare profesională. Noi oferim la aceste concursuri o pregătire practică dar și una teoretică. Marele câștig îl reprezintă faptul că tinerii care participă la fiecare ediție au șansa să se antreneze cu specialiști, în parte autorii cărților după care învață. E un mare avantaj. Concursurile au două probe - una teoretică, respectiv una practică unde e urmărită perfecționarea tehnicii serviciilor în restaurant. De aceea am ales servirea la gheridon, poate cel mai frumos și complex proces într-un restaurant clasic. Toată lumea are de câștigat inclusiv organizatorii și membrii juriului, care sunt din ce în ce mai exigenți dar și mai bine pregătiți. Un alt câștig îl reprezintă creșterea interesului față de profesie. Sperăm ca același trend să se înregistreze în rândul patronilor de restaurante.\r\n![\"Concurs](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Concurs-Maitre-2012.jpg\")
\r\n\r\n\r\n- Profesional vorbind, urmărind concursurile anuale, cum vi se par participanții din ultimii ani? \r\n\r\n- Un plus profesional este faptul că toți sunt vorbitori de limbi străine. Când ne-am format noi nu era o condiție decât pentru cei care activau la restaurante cu clienți străini. Erau alte vremuri. Mulți concurenți stăpânesc chiar două limbi străine, au lucrat afară sau în țară, și au acces astfel la numeroase informații profesionale apărute pe mapamond. Sunt foarte îndemânatici la folosirea tehnologiilor moderne. Din păcate, nu este însă un regret, suntem ultimii care au beneficiat de cunoștințe practice de la o generație compusă din practicieni și profesioniști desăvârșiți, foarte bine pregătiți, competitivi. Un alt avantaj este că tinerii concurenți, sunt frumoși, eleganți și fac parte din generații conștiențe de misiunea lor. Așa se vede dinăuntru. \r\n\r\n- Distincţiile şi trofeele câştigate de competitori, se bucură de apreciere și de recunoaştere în carieră ?\r\n\r\n- Din păcate concurenții noștri sunt individuali și nu instituționali. Un singur lanț hotelier Continental -, face excepție de la această stare de fapt. De la an la an se transmite interesul participanților, unii dintre ei se perfecționează și revin pentru că doresc să câștige premiile superioare sau chiar Marele Trofeu. Revin. El reamintește de Marian Bugan, profesorul, profesionistul, autorul de cărți. În cei aproape 15 ani de când organizăm concursul au trecut prin fața juriului circa 450 de competitori proveniți din toate zonele țării. O parte dintre ei au devenit membrii ai juriului. Alții au reprezentat România la concursuri internaționale în Italia, Canada, Grecia, Franța. Una dintre distincțiile câștigate a fost locul 2 pe echipe, la concursul Maître D de la Bremen, din 2003.\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU

De aceea am ales servirea la gheridon, poate cel mai frumos și complex proces într-un restaurant clasic. Toată lumea are de câștigat inclusiv organizatorii și membrii juriului, care sunt din ce în ce mai exigenți dar și mai bine pregătiți. Un alt câștig îl reprezintă creșterea interesului față de profesie. Sperăm ca același trend să se înregistreze în rândul patronilor de restaurante.\r\n\r\n- Profesional vorbind, urmărind concursurile anuale, cum vi se par participanții din ultimii ani? \r\n\r\n- Un plus profesional este faptul că toți sunt vorbitori de limbi străine. Când ne-am format noi nu era o condiție decât pentru cei care activau la restaurante cu clienți străini. Erau alte vremuri. Mulți concurenți stăpânesc chiar două limbi străine, au lucrat afară sau în țară, și au acces astfel la numeroase informații profesionale apărute pe mapamond. Sunt foarte îndemânatici la folosirea tehnologiilor moderne. Din păcate, nu este însă un regret, suntem ultimii care au beneficiat de cunoștințe practice de la o generație compusă din practicieni și profesioniști desăvârșiți, foarte bine pregătiți, competitivi. Un alt avantaj este că tinerii concurenți, sunt frumoși, eleganți și fac parte din generații conștiențe de misiunea lor. Așa se vede dinăuntru. \r\n\r\n- Distincţiile şi trofeele câştigate de competitori, se bucură de apreciere și de recunoaştere în carieră ?\r\n\r\n- Din păcate concurenții noștri sunt individuali și nu instituționali. Un singur lanț hotelier Continental -, face excepție de la această stare de fapt. De la an la an se transmite interesul participanților, unii dintre ei se perfecționează și revin pentru că doresc să câștige premiile superioare sau chiar Marele Trofeu. Revin. El reamintește de Marian Bugan, profesorul, profesionistul, autorul de cărți. În cei aproape 15 ani de când organizăm concursul au trecut prin fața juriului circa 450 de competitori proveniți din toate zonele țării. O parte dintre ei au devenit membrii ai juriului. Alții au reprezentat România la concursuri internaționale în Italia, Canada, Grecia, Franța. Una dintre distincțiile câștigate a fost locul 2 pe echipe, la concursul Maître D de la Bremen, din 2003.\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU

Ce alte tendințe se înregistrează pe piața MENA? Focursarea principală este făcută pe turismul cu familia. Conform studiului britanic ”Give As you Live” un turist din Emirate cheltuiește într-o vacanță circa 6.700 de dolari, în comparație cu cel englez ce scoate din buzunar aproximativ 5.800. 31% dintre turiștii din Emirate au apelat la rezervări online în 2014, cu 10% mai mult față de 2013. 25% dintre turiștii arabi folosesc pentru rezervările de travel telefoanele mobile. Referitor la potențial un alt studiu al Visa Global Travel evidențiază că aproximativ 97% din cei chestionați vor călători cel puțin o dată în 2016. Generația Millennial (tineri între 25-35 de ani), va înregistra o creștere a călătoriilor de circa 40%. Și, atenție! Nu bugetul este criteriul principal în alegerea unui pachet turistic, ci elementul de noutate.

Chiar dacă a fost ”dezechilibrat” turistic prin mișcări revoluționare și atacuri teroriste Egiptul ia în continuare vitamine pentru optimism, iar aceste vitamine sunt foarte eficiente. Ele se numesc investiții. Așa se explică de ce în 2014 sectorul turistic a cunoscut o dinamică de 23,6% a veniturilor. Comparativ cu 2013 Țara piramidelor a atras peste 10 milioane de turiști (o creștere de 4,5%) care au furnizat venituri de aproximativ 7,5 miliarde de dolari - a declarat Hisham Zaazou, Ministrul turismului egiptean. Asta înseamnă că un turist a cheltuit în medie 80,1 dolari pe noapte/cazare față de 72 de dolari în 2013. Industria turistică asigură locuri de muncă pentru peste 12% din populația activă și atunci este de înțeles de ce oficialitățile egiptene susțin în continuare ofensiva turistică. Ei se așteaptă ca după finalizarea a 10 proiecte aflate în derulare, ponderea turismului să crească și, odată cu această, industria să ofere alte zeci de mii de locuri de muncă permanente. Printre proiecte se află: Emaar Misr Marrassi Beach Resort, o investiție de 1,65 de milioane de dolari, situată în apropierea orașului El Alamein. E vorba de un complex de lux care include o plajă privată de 6 kilometri dar și un teren de golf cu 18 găuri; Mall of Egipt (400 milioane de dolari); modernizarea și extinderea Grand Egyptian Museum (un eveniment mult așteptat ce va absorbi 180 de milioane de dolari). În prezent pe segmentele hotelier și al turismului de shopping se desfășoară proiecte pentru 9 complexe de cazare și 7 mall-uri. Un hotel de clasă Four Season va apărea la Luxor.
\r\nPe zona de travel se produc de asemenea schimbări rapide și importante. Deși în turismul egiptean rezervările se fac mai mult în sistem clasic (la reprezentanțe și birouri de voiaj), în 2014 s-a înregistrat o creștere a rezervărilor on-line de 50% în rândul turiștilor egipteni. Interesant este că peste 76% dintre turiștii egipteni preferă sistemul all-inclusive, un produs cu tradiție în această țară cu peste 82 de milioane de locuitori.
\r\nOMAN - Cu ochii pe Asia\r\n![\"Oman](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Oman-7.jpg\")
\r\n
Strategia de dezvoltare a Sultanatului Oman pare să fie focusată în principal pe dezvoltarea proiectelor turistice și mai puțin pe industria petrolieră. De aceea se investește în infrastructura aer-sol (vedetă este, firește, compania Oman Air) și în promovarea acestei destinații noi, încă puțin cunoscută în lumea europeană. Croazierele au dat startul la acest proces și, cum se întâmplă de obicei, circulația turistică și interesul vor crește. Guvernul anticipează aceste mișcări și pregătește spații ospitaliere de cazare. În prezent se află în lucru 24 de hoteluri și resorturi, 6 centre comerciale tip Shopping Centre, un teatru, 5 complexe sportive, un parc tematic și 4 Convention & Exhibition Centre în valoare de 560 de milioane de dolari. Ele vor fi construite de către Al Futtaim Group. Numai pe partea hotelieră investițiile ating 3,3 miliarde de dolari iar actorii principali sunt brandurile de lux ca Ritz Carlton, Westin, dar și concepte mixte precum Saraya Bandar Jissah Resort, al cărui management este asigurat de Jumeirah Group.\r\n![\"Oman](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Oman-8.jpg\")
\r\n
Pentru 2015 este prognozată o creștere de 3% a circulației turistice comparativ cu anul care a trecut, care va genera 2,24 miliarde de dolari. Principalul furnizor de turiști este continentul asiatic de la care se așteaptă o creștere de 37,3 %, până în 2018. Desigur și în Oman (unde trăiesc circa 3,3 milioane de locuitori) se discută cu nerăbdare despre Expo 2020, eveniment ce dă o dimensiune specială investițiilor din industria fără fum. Cum va arăta această Expoziție mondială ? Veți afla într-un număr viitor.

\r\nLansarea Asociației de Enoturism s-a produs la Restaurantului Ginger din București, un loc recomandat pentru asemenea evenimente. Ea a fost onorată de oficiali ai ANT, lideri ai sectorului HORECA; proprietarii de magazine specializate; producători de vinuri, reprezentanți ai mediei de turism și vin (Octavian Arsene, Cătălin Păduraru, Petre Dordea, Marian Constantinescu) etc. Traveller Magazin a fost unul dintre Partenerii media ai lansării.

\r\nUn răspuns l-am aflat dând curs invitației Galeriei de Stil, un magazin șic de pe strada Ernest Broșteanu din București. Evenimentul a făcut parte din seria Bespoke Gentleman și a atras mai mulți creatori de frumos util care se decantează într-un stil de viață. Gazda, Corina Tănăsescu, s-a ocupat de toate detaliile care au avut menirea să creeze confort, comunicare și atmosferă relaxantă. Seara a avut parfum italienesc asta nu numai pentru că majoritatea ”actorilor” au provenit din această țară. Antonio Montanino, urmașul a patru generații de croitori manuali, a expus și demonstrat mai multe trucuri ale tradiției napolitate. El crede că fiecare persoană are un corp unic, iar costumul creat pentru el trebuie să evidențieze frumusețea acestuia. Aici intervin artiștii. Un alt italian, Gabriel Basso, a prezentat invitaților, pantofi a căror piele a fost pictată și colorată în... vin românesc. Rezultate de excepție. Bărbierul Galeriei l-a avut ca oaspete pe Ilie Năstase, care a visat câteva minute că e ca la 20 de ani Campion la tenis și fără bani. Vremuri. Toate au fost la timpul lor ceva adevărat. Cum adevărat a fost și vinul prezentat de Alin Mihalcea (deținător a mai multor premii, manager Elite Sommelier), preparatele asezonate oferite de Tratoria Don Vito, Livada cu Vișini și Luxury Grooming.\r\n\r\nDacă președintele Vitis Metamorfosis (companie italiană) din Dealu Mare, domnul Giancorrado Ulrich a arătat că vinul a fost dintotdeaua un motiv de sărbătoare al artiștilor și noi toți suntem artiști pentru că omagiem creația și stilul, Alin Mihalcea a subliniat în timpul demonstrațiilor, idei durabile, demne de însușit.

Cursa directă este disponibilă în fiecare zi de joi și duminică, atât în Orarul de iarnă 2015 – 2016, cât și în Orarul de vară 2016. Glasgow se adaugă celor peste 20 de noi rute lansate recent atât din România cât și pe bazele externe din Torino Caselle, respectiv Larnaca. \"Având în vedere potențialul turistic al României, cât și cel al Scoției, suntem convinși că ruta va deveni foarte populară în rândul pasagerilor care călătoresc în scop turistic dar și în interes de afaceri. În zona orașului Glasgow există o comunitate importantă de români, iar lansarea noii rute a fost special aleasă pentru ca ei să se poată bucura din plin de sărbătorile de iarnă” - ne-a declarat Gheorghe Răcaru, Director General Blue Air.\r\n
\r\n\r\nDe asemenea începând din 7 ianuarie 2016 Blue Air a introdus pe această rută, în scopul creșterii calității serviciilor, un meniu cald gratuit, la alegere între platou cald cu pui sau vită.

”Și când se va termina petrolul, din ce veți trăi? Din turism!” Ne aflam la o conferință de presă în Abu Dhabi. Puțini jurnaliști au crezut în acel răspuns. El era oferit, în urmă cu mai bine de 20 de ani, de unul dintre liderii Emiratelor Arabe Unite. Azi declarația a fost mult depășită de realitate.\n\nBanii se conjugă cu un singur verb - a investi! Modelul Dubai-ului a fost preluat și de alte țări din Orientul Mijlociu și Africa de Nord (MENA).\n\n
Ce alte tendințe se înregistrează pe piața MENA? Focursarea principală este făcută pe turismul cu familia. Conform studiului britanic ”Give As you Live” un turist din Emirate cheltuiește într-o vacanță circa 6.700 de dolari, în comparație cu cel englez ce scoate din buzunar aproximativ 5.800. 31% dintre turiștii din Emirate au apelat la rezervări online în 2014, cu 10% mai mult față de 2013. 25% dintre turiștii arabi folosesc pentru rezervările de travel telefoanele mobile. Referitor la potențial un alt studiu al Visa Global Travel evidențiază că aproximativ 97% din cei chestionați vor călători cel puțin o dată în 2016. Generația Millennial (tineri între 25-35 de ani), va înregistra o creștere a călătoriilor de circa 40%. Și, atenție! Nu bugetul este criteriul principal în alegerea unui pachet turistic, ci elementul de noutate. Deja se bucură de succes concepte ca Solo Traveler ori Wonder Woman, tendința de a călătorii singur crescând la 24% în 2014, față de 2013 (când a fost de 15%).\n\n
EGIPT - Lux, Golf și 7 Mall-uri\n\n
\nChiar dacă a fost ”dezechilibrat” turistic prin mișcări revoluționare și atacuri teroriste Egiptul ia în continuare vitamine pentru optimism, iar aceste vitamine sunt foarte eficiente. Ele se numesc investiții. Așa se explică de ce în 2014 sectorul turistic a cunoscut o dinamică de 23,6% a veniturilor. Comparativ cu 2013 Țara piramidelor a atras peste 10 milioane de turiști (o creștere de 4,5%) care au furnizat venituri de aproximativ 7,5 miliarde de dolari - a declarat Hisham Zaazou, Ministrul turismului egiptean. Asta înseamnă că un turist a cheltuit în medie 80,1 dolari pe noapte/cazare față de 72 de dolari în 2013. Industria turistică asigură locuri de muncă pentru peste 12% din populația activă și atunci este de înțeles de ce oficialitățile egiptene susțin în continuare ofensiva turistică. Ei se așteaptă ca după finalizarea a 10 proiecte aflate în derulare, ponderea turismului să crească și, odată cu această, industria să ofere alte zeci de mii de locuri de muncă permanente. Printre proiecte se află: Emaar Misr Marrassi Beach Resort, o investiție de 1,65 de milioane de dolari, situată în apropierea orașului El Alamein. E vorba de un complex de lux care include o plajă privată de 6 kilometri dar și un teren de golf cu 18 găuri; Mall of Egipt (400 milioane de dolari); modernizarea și extinderea Grand Egyptian Museum (un eveniment mult așteptat ce va absorbi 180 de milioane de dolari). În prezent pe segmentele hotelier și al turismului de shopping se desfășoară proiecte pentru 9 complexe de cazare și 7 mall-uri. Un hotel de clasă Four Season va apărea la Luxor.
\nPe zona de travel se produc de asemenea schimbări rapide și importante. Deși în turismul egiptean rezervările se fac mai mult în sistem clasic (la reprezentanțe și birouri de voiaj), în 2014 s-a înregistrat o creștere a rezervărilor on-line de 50% în rândul turiștilor egipteni. Interesant este că peste 76% dintre turiștii egipteni preferă sistemul all-inclusive, un produs cu tradiție în această țară cu peste 82 de milioane de locuitori.
\nOMAN - Cu ochii pe Asia
\nStrategia de dezvoltare a Sultanatului Oman pare să fie focusată în principal pe dezvoltarea proiectelor turistice și mai puțin pe industria petrolieră. De aceea se investește în infrastructura aer-sol (vedetă este, firește, compania Oman Air) și în promovarea acestei destinații noi, încă puțin cunoscută în lumea europeană. Croazierele au dat startul la acest proces și, cum se întâmplă de obicei, circulația turistică și interesul vor crește. Guvernul anticipează aceste mișcări și pregătește spații ospitaliere de cazare. În prezent se află în lucru 24 de hoteluri și resorturi, 6 centre comerciale tip Shopping Centre, un teatru, 5 complexe sportive, un parc tematic și 4 Convention & Exhibition Centre în valoare de 560 de milioane de dolari. Ele vor fi construite de către Al Futtaim Group. Numai pe partea hotelieră investițiile ating 3,3 miliarde de dolari iar actorii principali sunt brandurile de lux ca Ritz Carlton, Westin, dar și concepte mixte precum Saraya Bandar Jissah Resort, al cărui management este asigurat de Jumeirah Group.
\nPentru 2015 este prognozată o creștere de 3% a circulației turistice comparativ cu anul care a trecut, care va genera 2,24 miliarde de dolari. Principalul furnizor de turiști este continentul asiatic de la care se așteaptă o creștere de 37,3 %, până în 2018. Desigur și în Oman (unde trăiesc circa 3,3 milioane de locuitori) se discută cu nerăbdare despre Expo 2020, eveniment ce dă o dimensiune specială investițiilor din industria fără fum. Cum va arăta această Expoziție mondială ? Veți afla într-un număr viitor.

Din turism!” Ne aflam la o conferință de presă în Abu Dhabi. Puțini jurnaliști au crezut în acel răspuns. El era oferit, în urmă cu mai bine de 20 de ani, de unul dintre liderii Emiratelor Arabe Unite. Azi declarația a fost mult depășită de realitate.\r\n\r\nBanii se conjugă cu un singur verb - a investi! Modelul Dubai-ului a fost preluat și de alte țări din Orientul Mijlociu și Africa de Nord (MENA).\r\n\r\n
Ce alte tendințe se înregistrează pe piața MENA? Focursarea principală este făcută pe turismul cu familia. Conform studiului britanic ”Give As you Live” un turist din Emirate cheltuiește într-o vacanță circa 6.700 de dolari, în comparație cu cel englez ce scoate din buzunar aproximativ 5.800. 31% dintre turiștii din Emirate au apelat la rezervări online în 2014, cu 10% mai mult față de 2013. 25% dintre turiștii arabi folosesc pentru rezervările de travel telefoanele mobile. Referitor la potențial un alt studiu al Visa Global Travel evidențiază că aproximativ 97% din cei chestionați vor călători cel puțin o dată în 2016. Generația Millennial (tineri între 25-35 de ani), va înregistra o creștere a călătoriilor de circa 40%. Și, atenție! Nu bugetul este criteriul principal în alegerea unui pachet turistic, ci elementul de noutate. Deja se bucură de succes concepte ca Solo Traveler ori Wonder Woman, tendința de a călătorii singur crescând la 24% în 2014, față de 2013 (când a fost de 15%).\r\n\r\n
EGIPT - Lux, Golf și 7 Mall-uri\r\n\r\n
Chiar dacă a fost ”dezechilibrat” turistic prin mișcări revoluționare și atacuri teroriste Egiptul ia în continuare vitamine pentru optimism, iar aceste vitamine sunt foarte eficiente. Ele se numesc investiții. Așa se explică de ce în 2014 sectorul turistic a cunoscut o dinamică de 23,6% a veniturilor. Comparativ cu 2013 Țara piramidelor a atras peste 10 milioane de turiști (o creștere de 4,5%) care au furnizat venituri de aproximativ 7,5 miliarde de dolari - a declarat Hisham Zaazou, Ministrul turismului egiptean. Asta înseamnă că un turist a cheltuit în medie 80,1 dolari pe noapte/cazare față de 72 de dolari în 2013. Industria turistică asigură locuri de muncă pentru peste 12% din populația activă și atunci este de înțeles de ce oficialitățile egiptene susțin în continuare ofensiva turistică. Ei se așteaptă ca după finalizarea a 10 proiecte aflate în derulare, ponderea turismului să crească și, odată cu această, industria să ofere alte zeci de mii de locuri de muncă permanente. Printre proiecte se află: Emaar Misr Marrassi Beach Resort, o investiție de 1,65 de milioane de dolari, situată în apropierea orașului El Alamein. E vorba de un complex de lux care include o plajă privată de 6 kilometri dar și un teren de golf cu 18 găuri; Mall of Egipt (400 milioane de dolari); modernizarea și extinderea Grand Egyptian Museum (un eveniment mult așteptat ce va absorbi 180 de milioane de dolari). În prezent pe segmentele hotelier și al turismului de shopping se desfășoară proiecte pentru 9 complexe de cazare și 7 mall-uri. Un hotel de clasă Four Season va apărea la Luxor.
\r\nPe zona de travel se produc de asemenea schimbări rapide și importante. Deși în turismul egiptean rezervările se fac mai mult în sistem clasic (la reprezentanțe și birouri de voiaj), în 2014 s-a înregistrat o creștere a rezervărilor on-line de 50% în rândul turiștilor egipteni. Interesant este că peste 76% dintre turiștii egipteni preferă sistemul all-inclusive, un produs cu tradiție în această țară cu peste 82 de milioane de locuitori.
\r\nOMAN - Cu ochii pe Asia\r\n\r\n
Strategia de dezvoltare a Sultanatului Oman pare să fie focusată în principal pe dezvoltarea proiectelor turistice și mai puțin pe industria petrolieră. De aceea se investește în infrastructura aer-sol (vedetă este, firește, compania Oman Air) și în promovarea acestei destinații noi, încă puțin cunoscută în lumea europeană. Croazierele au dat startul la acest proces și, cum se întâmplă de obicei, circulația turistică și interesul vor crește. Guvernul anticipează aceste mișcări și pregătește spații ospitaliere de cazare. În prezent se află în lucru 24 de hoteluri și resorturi, 6 centre comerciale tip Shopping Centre, un teatru, 5 complexe sportive, un parc tematic și 4 Convention & Exhibition Centre în valoare de 560 de milioane de dolari. Ele vor fi construite de către Al Futtaim Group. Numai pe partea hotelieră investițiile ating 3,3 miliarde de dolari iar actorii principali sunt brandurile de lux ca Ritz Carlton, Westin, dar și concepte mixte precum Saraya Bandar Jissah Resort, al cărui management este asigurat de Jumeirah Group.\r\n\r\n
Pentru 2015 este prognozată o creștere de 3% a circulației turistice comparativ cu anul care a trecut, care va genera 2,24 miliarde de dolari. Principalul furnizor de turiști este continentul asiatic de la care se așteaptă o creștere de 37,3 %, până în 2018. Desigur și în Oman (unde trăiesc circa 3,3 milioane de locuitori) se discută cu nerăbdare despre Expo 2020, eveniment ce dă o dimensiune specială investițiilor din industria fără fum. Cum va arăta această Expoziție mondială ? Veți afla într-un număr viitor.

În lumea secolului 21, dată pe repede înainte, în care timpul costă foarte mulți bani, oamenii optează în special pentru dejunuri, pentru restaurante tip-fast food, cu meniuri rapide. Cu toate acestea lanțurile hoteliere românești ori străine, dețin în fiecare unitate cel puțin un restaurant clasic. Aici nu te poți face că faci meserie și ai nevoie de cel puțin un Maître D, șeful de sală, care azi e mai mult decât atât. Șeful de sală este un profesionist care dirijează toate componentele servirii: de la bucătărie, armonizarea vinurilor, recomandările, până la, lucru extrem de important, adresarea mulțumirii finale și invitarea consumatorului de a reveni la acel restaurant. Toate acestea deoarece clientul vine la restaurant pentru a socializa și a i se da importanța cuvenită. Aspectele amintite nu pot fi rezolvate prin tehnologii, pot fi doar completate. Atlfel spus, ați dat vreodată tips unei tablete ?

Ne aflăm în fața unei greșeli, care persistă. E bine că s-a investit foarte mult în lux, în dotări, în mobilier. Dar e regretabil că nu s-a făcut și în oameni, în pregătirea profesională din turism. Clientul percepe acest lucru și nu mai revine unde nu s-a simțit confortabil. E nevoie de o recalibrare profesională. Noi oferim la aceste concursuri o pregătire practică dar și una teoretică. Marele câștig îl reprezintă faptul că tinerii care participă la fiecare ediție au șansa să se antreneze cu specialiști, în parte autorii cărților după care învață. E un mare avantaj. Concursurile au două probe - una teoretică, respectiv una practică unde e urmărită perfecționarea tehnicii serviciilor în restaurant. De aceea am ales servirea la gheridon, poate cel mai frumos și complex proces într-un restaurant clasic. Toată lumea are de câștigat inclusiv organizatorii și membrii juriului, care sunt din ce în ce mai exigenți dar și mai bine pregătiți.

Cu Ramada Plaza, singurul de acest gen din afara Bucureștiului, se poate spune că începe un nou capitol al serviciilor de 4 stele ce vor putea fi testate local pe segmentele de business, SPA ori gastronomie.\n\n
\n“Este un privilegiu pentru mine să fac parte dintr-un proiect atât de frumos și de ambițios. Deschiderea Ramada Plaza care va redefini piața ospitalității din Craiova și din regiune reprezintă o provocare. Hotelul este cel mai complex proiect de profil din zonă și a fost conceput special pentru a răspunde cererii semnificative de pe o piață de business aflată în puternică dezvoltare. Structura noastră de cazare oferă tot confortul necesar călătoriilor de afaceri și suntem încântați să recomandăm Centrul nostru de conferințe ultramodern ce îndeplinește toate exigențele pentru organizarea de evenimente corporate. Obiectivul nostru este acela de a deveni adresa de business numărul 1 în Craiova. Totodată, viziunea noastră cuprinde și inovarea segmentului de leisure din oraș. Prin serviciile și facilitățile de event management deosebite și cu o ofertă minunată în plan culinar, sunt convins că, în scurt timp, Ramada Plaza se va dovedi a fi prima opțiune în planificarea evenimentelor private” - declara Marcello Pauw, General Manager Ramada Plaza Craiova.\n\n
Ramada Plaza Craiova are 162 camere și apartamente standard și executive, un centru SPA & Wellness, doua restaurante, 3 săli de conferințe (Henri Coandă -64 metri pătrați -, Amza Pelea - 71 și Boardroom - 44), respectiv Grand ballroom (Constantin Brâncuși - 507 metri pătrați) cu o capacitate totală de circa 550 de persoane. Centrul de Evenimente & Convenții de la Ramada este proiectat să găzduiască întreaga gamă de evenimente private și de business, fiind dotat cu cele mai avansate tehnologii și facilități: echipamente audio-video de ultima generație, posibilitate de blackout 100%, condiționarea personalizată a aerului, numeroase scenarii de iluminație și configurări multiple ale spațiilor de evenimente.
\nComplexul e configurat pe o structura de cazare de categoria 4 stele plus. Deși e amplasat pe locul fostului hotel Jiul este un hotel nou, reconstruit și revoluminat după toate standardele moderne, astfel încât să pună în valoare personalitatea şi atributele definitorii ale brandului internaţional Ramada și ale lanțului Wyndham Hotel Group din care face parte. Ramada Plaza Craiova este o unitate full service care garantează oaspeților o experiență completă. Cu o infrastructură performantă care integrează toate componentele ospitalității de business și de leisure -, Ramada Plaza Craiova oferă cea mai bună valoare pentru cele mai înalte standarde de calitate din categoria sa” - subliniază Eduard Stanov, Sales & Marketing manager.
\nCum orice hotel se dorește a fi un business profitabil și la Ramada Plaza Craiova se desenează culoarele pe care va alerga... managementul.

Cu Ramada Plaza, singurul de acest gen din afara Bucureștiului, se poate spune că începe un nou capitol al serviciilor de 4 stele ce vor putea fi testate local pe segmentele de business, SPA ori gastronomie.\r\n\r\n
“Este un privilegiu pentru mine să fac parte dintr-un proiect atât de frumos și de ambițios. Deschiderea Ramada Plaza care va redefini piața ospitalității din Craiova și din regiune reprezintă o provocare. Hotelul este cel mai complex proiect de profil din zonă și a fost conceput special pentru a răspunde cererii semnificative de pe o piață de business aflată în puternică dezvoltare. Structura noastră de cazare oferă tot confortul necesar călătoriilor de afaceri și suntem încântați să recomandăm Centrul nostru de conferințe ultramodern ce îndeplinește toate exigențele pentru organizarea de evenimente corporate. Obiectivul nostru este acela de a deveni adresa de business numărul 1 în Craiova. Totodată, viziunea noastră cuprinde și inovarea segmentului de leisure din oraș. Prin serviciile și facilitățile de event management deosebite și cu o ofertă minunată în plan culinar, sunt convins că, în scurt timp, Ramada Plaza se va dovedi a fi prima opțiune în planificarea evenimentelor private” - declara Marcello Pauw, General Manager Ramada Plaza Craiova.\r\n\r\n
Ramada Plaza Craiova are 162 camere și apartamente standard și executive, un centru SPA & Wellness, doua restaurante, 3 săli de conferințe (Henri Coandă -64 metri pătrați -, Amza Pelea - 71 și Boardroom - 44), respectiv Grand ballroom (Constantin Brâncuși - 507 metri pătrați) cu o capacitate totală de circa 550 de persoane.

\n@PESCATURISM ÎN DELTĂ... Pescaturismul este un nou concept propus de pescarii din Delta Dunării pentru a atrage turiștii în zonă. Vizitatorii vor putea experimenta viața de pescar într-o gospodărie tradițională. Proiectul a costat 30.000 de euro și este finanțat de fundația fostului campion Ivan Patzaichin. De la Tulcea, turiștii vor fi duși cu șalupe rapide la Mila 23, unde vor fi întâmpinați de săteni, care îi vor plimba cu lotcile pe canalele Deltei Dunării. Totodată, împreună cu sătenii vor scoate peștele din plasele pescărești. Tarifele sunt modice și includ o incursiune de trei ore și jumatate, demonstrații de pescuit și o vizita la un adăpost pescăresc unde turiștii vor fi întâmpinați cu muzică și borș de pește tradițional. După aceea ei vor înnopta în colibele pescarilor sau în pensiuni. În același scop se lucrează la amenajarea a două noi construcții în comuna Mila 23.

Pentru aceasta organizația a apelat atât la opiniile agențiilor de turism nipone cât și ale călătorilor japonezi care frecventează acest continent.

Expedia, una dintre cele mai mari agenții on-line de turism din lume, a alcătuit un Top 2015 cu cele mai atractive 25 de orașe pentru shopping din lume. Criteriile luate în calcul de realizatorii clasamentului sunt puterea de cumpărare, atitudinea comercianților și numărul de vizitatori anual. Fiecare criteriu e notat între 1 și 10 și în funcție de media obținută. Bucureștiul a intrat în ”liga mare” chiar pe poziția 25. Capitala României a obținut 11 puncte din 30 posibile și a fost notată cu 9 la puterea de cumpărare. Realizatorii subliniază că transportul în comun este foarte ieftin, 0,24 de lire sterline, în timp ce o pereche de jeans Levi’s se vând cu 39,62 lire iar încălțămintea marca Nike cu 44,67 lire. Primele 5 locuri ale topului Expedia au fost ocupate de: New York, Berlin, Los Angeles, Londra și Kuala Lumpur, iar cele 5 orașe aflate înaintea Bucureștiului sânt Edinburg, Melbourne, Viena, Cape Town și Amsterdam.

În fine ar fi nevoie de stabilirea unor tarife minime orientative pentru activitatea ghizilor. Dar atâta timp cât unii lucrează la... dumping ori cu prețuri gri, gestionarea subiectului rămâne o utopie.

În Top 10 ea este urmată de Copa Airlines (91,7%), Azul (91%), Japan Airlines (90,4%), respectiv sub 90% All Nippon Airways, Finnair, TAM, Austrian Airlines, Hawaiian Airlines și LOT. ”Suntem foarte mândri de poziția pe care am ocupat-o pentru al doilea an consecutiv. Nu este puțin lucru să te afli în elita primilor 10 transportatori. Punctualitatea dă putere industriei aviatice care a cunoscut schimbări pozitive.

\r\nAdministrația Companiei Naționale Aeroporturi București (CNAB), care reunește Aeroporturile internaționale Henri Coandă și Aurel Vlaicu - Băneasa au înregistrat în 2015, un număr record de 9,28 milioane pasageri, în creștere cu 11,6% față de anul precedent. Pe pistele celor două porți aeriene au fost consemnate în același interval 108.566 de mișcări aeronave, în creștere cu 6,4% față de anul precedent. În prezent, pe Aeroportul Otopeni operează 31 de companii aeriene, care transportă pasageri către 70 de destinații. Cel mai dinamic aeroport internațional din România a fost anul trecut ”Mihail Kogalniceanu” din Constanța, unde s-a înregistrat o creștere de 107%, ajungându-se la peste 78.500 de pasageri comerciali. De pe acest aeroport sunt operate curse în regim regulat către Milano, Londra și Istanbul - a precizat directorul aeroportului, Bogdan Artagea.
\r\nJOIN vine la ARAD
\r\nBernard Jacobs, președintele companiei Join Airlines, a anunțat că transportatorul olandez va intra pe piața românească cu patru curse operate de la Arad. Trei dintre acestea vor acoperi rute internaționale - spre Stuttgart, Verona și un alt oraș ce urmează a fi stabilit. Rutele interne - București și, probabil Suceava și Tulcea, vor fi acoperite cu alte trei aeronave proprii. ”Join Airlines nu este o companie low-cost, dar prețul biletelor pentru rutele din Arad vor fi atractive” - a mai precizat Jacobs. Aeroportul Internațional Arad nu mai are curse aeriene de pasageri din primavara anului trecut, cand Wizz Air s-a retras. Și operatorul DHL cargo a abandonat acest aeroport pe care mai sunt efectuate doar zboruri de tip charter și ale unei școli de aviație.

IOSA este programul internațional de evaluare creat să analizeze managementul operațional și procedurile de control al unei companii aeriene. Pe parcursul auditului, care a implicat controlul a peste 900 de standarde și bune practici recomandate, au fost analizate departamentele: zbor, control operațional și dispeceratul de zbor, departamentul de inginerie și întretinere, operațiunile la bordul aeronavelor executate de însoțitorii de bord, operațiunile la sol, departamentul cargo și securitate a precizat Regional Vice President Europe, Rafael Schvartzman.
\r\nÎn urma obținerii certificării IOSA Blue Air a devenit, de la începutul lui 2016, membru cu drepturi depline al IATA (International Air Transport Association). IATA reprezintă cea mai prestigioasă asociație, ea reunind 260 de companii aeriene din peste 119 țări. „Aderarea la IATA constituie un pas important în istoria companiei, deschizând ușa parteneriatelor cu alți operatori, ceea ce ne va permite să oferim servicii la prețuri cât mai atractive” - ne-a declarat Gheorghe Răcaru, Director General Blue Air.

VOR VENI 100.000 DE RUȘI?
\r\nOptimism, fără nici un suport, al liderului Autorității Naționale pentru Turism (ANT). După ce a participat la Moscova la o întâlnire cu peste 20 de tour-operatori români și cam 100 de reprezentanți ruși, Anca Pavel Nedea, președintele ANT a acreditat ideea că în 2016 vor veni la noi circa 100.000 de turiști ruși. Asta în condițiile în care anul trecut au fost aproximativ 20.000. Conjunctura e favorabilă, dar puțină decență nu strică. Litoral la Marea Neagră au acum și rușii.

\r\n4 AUTORI și ”șahul turistic”
\r\nDe aproape patru decenii numele lor au fost întâlnit în diverse combinații didactice care au condus la apariția unor cărți ce au modelat generații de studenți. Nicolae Neacșu, Petre Baron, Vasile Glăvan și Monica Neacșu s-au grupat de data aceasta pentru a promova o ediție modernă cu titlul ”Geografia și economia turismului”. Primii doi au fost și miniștri post-revoluționari în branșă. Asta pe vremea când se căutau oamenii care chiar știau cu ce se mănâncă turismul. Cartea, produsă de editura Pro Universitaria, prezintă în 700 de pagini, noțiuni stratificate de geografie și economie turistică, cei doi piloni ce asigură orientarea în învățământul universitar, liceal, geografic și economic, de turism. Autorii conturează cu fermitate o tablă de șah globală pe care observăm cum factori neimportanți cândva devin decisivi peste cîteva decenii, favorizînd țări sau zone să devină atracții turistice. Când te gândești cât de tînără e branșa! Doar turismul organizat a apărut în 1841, în Anglia cînd a luat ființă Thomas Cook, primul birou de voiaj și prima firmă touroperatoare din lume.

Aproape toți scriitorii români, și desigur nu numai ei, au fost consumatori rafinați ori ”esteți” ai licorilor bahice. Ei bine, Răzvan Voncu, autorul cărții ”O istorie literară a vinului în România”, spune chiar de la începutul cărții că a dorit să întocmească o lucrare didactică despre literatură și vin. Cu marele risc că maniera de abordare poate deveni obositoare chiar și pentru un cititor inițiat. Critic și istoric literar la Facultatea de litere a Universității din București, Răzvan Voncu ne oferă la editura Curtea Veche o incursiune prin 500 de pagini, în lumea vinului privit ca un obiect istoric, o ființă vie, o licoare care creează mitologie în rândul scriitorilor etc. ”Nefiind un etalon estetic, vinul nu este nici unul moral. Literatura română, conservatoare la alte capitole, este liberală în materie de vin și derivate, echilibrul ei ”între antiteze” - scrierile exaltând virtuțiile licorii și, respectiv, cele de propagandă deschisă sau camumflată, a abstinenței fiind evident. Licoare de uz sacramental, Vinul este/poate fi un excelent sinonim al Timpului”. Citatul este doar o invitație de a consuma această carte. Firește, alături de un pahar cu vin.

\r\nThe travel writers at CNN made a list of 16 destinations that are worth visiting in 2016. Romania is listed together with places like Mongolia, Papua New Guinee, Iceland, Geenland, Norway, Madagascar or Iran. The tourists are encouraged to visit the center of the country, the city of Cluj-Napoca and Bran Castle in Transilvanya, as well as the Danube Delta : “Central Romania is engulfed in the soaring Carpathian mountain range, filled with green groves and ski and hiking trails for adventure-heads. What isn\'t well known is that Romania catches the Danube Delta at its southern tip, where wetlands prove fertile ground. Head here for hiking, birding and fishing. Or go gallery hopping in Cluj-Napoca, a hotly-tipped future art scene. But of course the nation is best known for bloodsucking myths of Dracula, werewolves and ghosts.” CNN online edition recommends to visit Romania springtime or in the autumn months.\r\n![\"CNN](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/CNN-engl24.jpg\")

Romania is listed together with places like Mongolia, Papua New Guinee, Iceland, Geenland, Norway, Madagascar or Iran. The tourists are encouraged to visit the center of the country, the city of Cluj-Napoca and Bran Castle in Transilvanya, as well as the Danube Delta : “Central Romania is engulfed in the soaring Carpathian mountain range, filled with green groves and ski and hiking trails for adventure-heads. What isn\'t well known is that Romania catches the Danube Delta at its southern tip, where wetlands prove fertile ground. Head here for hiking, birding and fishing. Or go gallery hopping in Cluj-Napoca, a hotly-tipped future art scene. But of course the nation is best known for bloodsucking myths of Dracula, werewolves and ghosts.” CNN online edition recommends to visit Romania springtime or in the autumn months.
\r\nGoogle votes the Palace of Parliament
\r\nThe Chamber of Deputes and Google launched at the end of January an online platform that allows to virtually visit the Palace of Parliament in Bucharest – Romania. The initiative belongs to a Romanian, emplyee of Google Ireland.
\r\nValeriu Zgonea, president of Chamber of Deputes said that almost 150 paintings can be seen on Google Cultural Institute, together with the rooms and halls of the Parliament that are regularly opened for the public to visit. According to the Director of Google Romania, Dan Bulucea, the istitution is the first Parliament of Central and Eastern Europe that can be visited using the platform provided by Google Cultural Institute.
\r\nGura Humorului is in TOP JATA
\r\nThe Japanese Association of Travel Agents (JATA) published a chart of the most beautiful 30 European small towns, less known to the travelling public. JATA used the suggestions of the travel agencies in Japan but also of the visitors to the Continent. For Romania the votes went to the town of Gura Humorului in the northern part of the country, in the historical region of Bucovina. Gura Humorului, located in a mountainous, among forests, at the confluence of Humor and Moldova River, is appreciated by the voters also for its beautifully colored architectural sites, being one of the gateways to the Unesco Heritage Painted Monasteries. Other destinations liked by the Japanese public in Europe are: Berat, in Albania; Civita di Bagnoregio, in Italy; Lech, in Austria; Hindeloopen, in Holland; Lefkara, in Cyprus; Rovinj, in Croatia; Piran, in Slovenia; Marianske-Lazne, in Czech Republic; Quedlinburg, in Germany; Golyazi, in Turkey; Sopron, in Hungary etc.
\r\nEXPEDIA: Romania is 25 in Shopping
\r\nExpedia, one of the largest on-line travel agencies, created a top for last year, ranking the most attractive 25 cities of the world where one should go shopping. The producers rated the attitude of the retailers, the annual visitors’ number and the purchasing power. The Capital of Romania, Bucharest, obtained 11 points out of 30 and got the 25th position, having a 9 for purchasing power. The ranking producers underline how cheap the local transportation is (0,24pp), while a pair of Levi’s is 39,62 GBP, and a pair of Nike is 44,67 GBP.
\r\nThe first 5 places to shop, in the vision of Expedia, are: New York, Berlin, Los Angeles, London and Kuala Lumpur, while the five positions before Bucharest are taken by Edinburg, Melbourne, Vienna, Cape Town and Amsterdam.

Sigur, prima recomandare este să vizitezi cetatea. Pe parcursul timpului alocat vei afla că Veliko Târnovo înseamnă Marele Tron, nume care a fost dat în perioada Primului Țarat Bulgar (680-1018). Dar așezarea este mult mai veche, firește, și are tangență cu antichitatea și împăratul Traian care a dezvoltat în zonă așezarea Nikopolis ad Istrum. Era puternică degrabă ce își bătea monedă proprie, iar pentru divertisment organiza lupte de gladiatori. Ruinele pot fi vizitate la câțiva kilometri de Veliko.

\r\nCetatea de la Veliko Târnovo este restaurată cu atenție. Ca în multe altele și în interiorul acesteia, cățărată pe un vârf de deal, se află o biserică interesantă. E înconjurată de mai multe suporturi cu clopote care amintesc de vechile invazii ce erau alarmate de aici, iar în interior se află mai multe fresce și picturi, realizate într-un stil modern, șocant pentru cei obișnuiți cu liniile canonice, dar pline de mesaj și bun gust. Ea sugerează că în interiorul zidurilor a activat cândva Școala de pictură Târnovo - întemeiată ca și cea de Literatură de către Patriarhii Evtimii și Teodosii Târnovski -, a cărei valoare era recunoscută pe plan european. Pe parcursul turului veți putea admira sculpturi și elemente de heraldică specifice, reprezentative pentru evoluția și restaurarea cetății. Dacă vrei să te dai mare și rege, ai ocazia să te imortalizezi, pe un cal de lemn, îmbrăcat și înarmat în stilul epocii. Recuzită e oferită contra-cost firește, de către animatori întreprinzători. De la ei aflăm că în interiorul cetății au loc în fiecare an festivaluri culturale, care reînvie o parte din tradițiile artistice și meșteșugărești ale bulgarilor.
\r\nUn titlu de la IHRA
\r\nO pauză de cafea e binemeritată. Dar pentru a înțelege viața și vibrația zidurilor înghețate de istorie, luați-o din loc, direct spre Centru Multimedia de Informare Turistică. Jumătate muzeu, jumătate Centru de informare, un mariaj foarte potrivit proiectat și finalizat cu finanțare europeană. La ghișeul de intrare se află pliante și broșuri în toate limbile de circulație internațională, dar și în română, semn că pe aici trec anual zeci de mii de vecini. Parcurgând sălile cu exponate ești impresionat de statuile realizate din ceară și fibră de sticlă în mărime naturală, care exprimă ipostaze și ritualuri ale istoriei, susținute de motive din muzica originală a formării etnice IRFAN. Urmărind siluetele domnitorilor glorioși de la Târnovo, țarii Kaloyan și Ivan Asen II, pe cea a Reginei Ana-Maria, pe a vicarului papal Cardinalul Leo, ori pe ale nobililor, călugărilor, patriarhilor și meșteșugarilor înțelegi mai profund de ce acest loc a fost numit în istorie ”Orașul regal protejat de Dumnezeu”, ”Regele orașelor”, ”Al doilea Constantinopol”, ”A treia Romă” etc. Și, mai recent, în 2010, titlul de ”Capitală Balcanică a turismului cultural”, acordat de către Asociația Internațională a Hotelierilor și Restauratorilor (IHRA).
\r\nRătăciți-vă prin Mahala
\r\nDacă n-aveți timp trebuie să vă faceți. Pentru experiențe alternative. Bulgarii au conservat foarte bine tot ceea ce dă culoare și specific turistic. Nu ratați, că e păcat, Casele boierilor și bisericile risipite vertical pe Dealul Trapezița. Dar mai ales cartierul meșteșugarilor Assenova Mahala, extins de-a lungul timpului între cele două dealuri marcate de râul Yantra. Dacă tot vorbim de superlative mai aflați că în Evul Mediu, locul a fost recunoscut drept ”cel mai fortificat și cel mai frumos oraș din Hemus” (adică din Balcani). La fel de frumos este și astăzi, cu străzile pietruite ca în vechime (nu ca noi fraierii, care am asfaltat aleile din cetățile medievale de parcă soldații călăreau pe autostrăzi), și în centru comercial aflat pe ”Samovodska Ciarșia” înțesat de magazine cu suveniruri, cosmetice (trandafirul fiind suportul oricărui produs), galerii de artă și bijuterii, bistrouri, restaurante, mici localuri unde ai ocazia să te delectezi la prețuri modice, cu meniuri gustoase. Desfătați-vă măcar cu un desert, marca Veliko: Kadaif și dulceață albă împreună cu o cafea turcească la nisip fierbinte. Ridicați capul, pentru că deasupra voastră veți descoperi case cu arhitectură ce amintește de ceea ce se întâlnea cândva și în Centrul Vechi din București.
\r\nȘi nu uitați de Brâncoveanu
\r\nSpectacolul de noapte de Sunet și Lumini este o altă marcă de referință a turismului de la Veliko Târnovo. Este cea mai impresionantă atracție de seară a orașului care bate de la mare distanță discoteci, baruri, 3 și 4 D și orice! Este și cel mai longeviv spectacol, probabil din Europa, primul producându-se în 1985. Muzica, jocurile de lumini, efectele laserelor care mătură cerul, sunetele clopotelor de la biserici, toate contribuie la o altă recreere a unor fragmente din istoria bulgară. Cel mai bun loc pentru vizionare îl reprezintă restaurantul Yantra. Spectacolele sunt oferite gratuit de sărbători naționale și oficiale ale orașului. În rest sunt organizate contra cost, la cerere, pentru grupuri de vizitatori.
\r\nDacă v-ați proiectat cazarea pentru mai multe zile, o mini-vacanță sau un weekend, vă sugerăm să o faceți la numai 4 kilometri de Veliko. În satul Arbanasi. A fost cândva reședință de vară a boierilor. Un loc nepereche unde se îmbină arhitectura renascentistă cu case-cetăți sufocate de verdeață luxuriantă. Vă mai spunem doar un nume - Constantin Brâncoveanu. Restul descoperiți dumneavoastră.

\r\n\r\nÎn Orlando distracţia e cuvântul la ordinea zilei iar distracţia şi starea de bine sunt molipsitoare. Lasă prejudecăţile de adult şi lasă-te dus de val... Îţi prezentăm în continuare ultimele atracţii deschise anul trecut. Un oraş tipic american, ar spune unii, Orlando se întinde generos, printre mlaştini, păduri de pini, înfrumuseţat cu salbe de autostrăzi line. Conduci de la un capăt la altul, în trafic normal cam o oră şi peste tot vezi hoteluri şi complexe rezidenţiale cu vile în culori pastelate şi grădini şi vegetaţie care se răsfaţă în soarele unei Floride toride în general. Se construieşte în continuu căci Orlando este capitala distracţiei pe coasta de Est. Oraşul a înregistrat puţin peste 54 de milioane de vizitatori între lunile ianuarie-iunie ale anului trecut.\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery ids=\"4634,4636,4637,4639,4640,4641\"]\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCe vezi prin Orlando Eye?\r\n\r\nPrima dată când am fost în Orlando, acum cinci ani, am savurat peisajul, la răsărit, făcând un zbor cu balonul. Anul trecut am testat noua atracţie, abia inaugurată: Orlando Eye. O roată cu cabine de sticlă din care admiri panorama în timpul unei ture de aproape jumătate de oră. Te uiţi şi te minunezi câte sute de hoteluri, mii de vile de închiriat şi, mai ales, milioane de copaci se văd în jurul tău. La parter poţi intra şi în Muzeul Madame Toussauds, ca să dai mâna cu starurile Americii Noi am făcut o ”miuță” cu Shaquille O\'Neal, am stat la o șuetă Audrey Hepburn despre ”Micul dejun la Tiffany”, am trecut deșertul cu Laurence Olivier și ne-am oprit în Salonul Oval de la Casa Albă unde am avut o întrevedere serioasă cu Președintele Obama pe tema Visa Waiver. Lobby-ul nostru a fost sprijinit în emisiunea celebrei Oprah, iar o susținere prietenească a venit din partea lui Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, Beyonce ori John Travolta. Apoi ne-am scufundat în lumea fascinantă de la acvariile Sea Life. După o dimineaţă uşoară, de introducere în subiectul serios al distracţiei în stil mare, faceţi o plimbare în zona pietonală a oraşului. Un fel de centru al oraşului, dezvoltat în ultimii ani, plin de restaurante şi baruri cu mâncare din ce în ce mai variată şi mai gustoasă.\r\n\r\nLegoland - să mori de râs\r\n\r\nDeschis în martie 2015 Legoland este, după cum spune şi numele, un parc tematic de distracţii făcut din piese de Lego. Poarta de acces, animalele geometrizate de la intrare, soldăţeii de pe marginea aleilor, toate sunt concepute de artişti specializaţi şi construite din milioane de piese mici de plastic. Deşi este gândit în principal pentru copii locul este foarte relaxant pentru vizitatorii de orice vârstă. Micuţii învaţă animalele şi se joacă cu nisip în zona Duplo, e plin de caruseluri şi trenuleţe. Noi am testat plimbarea cu barca pe un râu artificial şi am râs până la lacrimi implicaţi într-o bătălie fără miză, împuşcând cu apă, soldaţi din piese de lego. Am supravieţuit cascadei care ne-a surprins ambarcaţiunea, atacurilor din grotă, ne-am udat până în... şosete. Am râs cât într-un an şi, ne-am întoarce la Orlando şi dacă ar fi să repetăm doar această primă experienţă. Dacă alegeţi să ne călcaţi pe urme vă recomandăm să staţi la hotelul Lego deschis lângă parc, chiar cu câteva săptămâni înainte să-l vizităm. O să aveți ce face în una dintre cele 152 de camere, pe fiecare etaj existând teme și culori diferite care au inspirat designerii de interior . Ei au pus în valoare circa 2 milioane de piese pentru a construi circa 2000 de obiecte și spații ambientale: de la desk-ul recepției, la paturile confortabile din camere ori ușile și interioarele din lifturi. Testate și garantate și de noi.\r\n\r\nFrumoasa, Bestia și valsul hologramelor\r\n\r\nÎn 2015 parcurile Disney au aniversat 60 de ani de la inaugurarea primei locaţii în Anaheim, California, 1955. Iar pentru asta în magia şi tehnologia din spatele atracţiilor, inginerii, creatorii s-au întrecut în noutăţi. La parcul Disneyland din Orlando focurile de artificii sunt la ordinea... serii: jocurile de lumini proiectate pe castelul Cenuşăresei se împletesc cu melodiile deja clasice din coloanele sonore ale desenelor animate. Tinkerbell alunecă spre castel şi acoperă cu praf magic acoperişurile. Iar tu, privitorul, rămâi fără cuvinte, fără vârstă şi în afara timpului real atunci când, şepcuţa pe care o ai pe cap, cu urechi luminoase de Mickey Mouse, începe să vibreze în culori, pe ritmul muzicii spectacolului. Şi alături de tine, la fel fac, mii de alte urechi, care acoperă piaţa precum un covor de licurici fascinaţi de desene animate. \r\n\r\nNe-au plăcut în mod deosebit butaforiile din lumea lui Jack cu vrejul de fasole cocoţându-se spre cer, plimbările cu trenuleţul prin lumea lui Ariel. Însă magia şi fantezia s-au întrecut în creaţie pentru noua atracţie a lumii lui Belle. Ajungi la poarta de lemn, intri în casă şi, după ce ţi se prezintă povestea, participi într-o scenetă. Dacă eşti Belle dulapul începe să vorbească cu tine, se mişcă efectiv în faţa ochilor tăi şi ai vrea să îl atingi să vezi dacă e adevărat, apoi Lumiere de invită în sala de dans, unde, dacă eşti Bestia, te întreci în valsat. În jurul tău personajele desenului animat, holograme sau ce or fi fost, se mişcă şi vorbesc cu tine... la final primeşti drept amintire un semn de carte şi apoi, ore bune din noapte te gândeşti cum or fi făcut personajele să se mişte aşa. Ah, măcar de ai fi apucat să pui mâna! Dar, stai!! Cum de sincronizau urechile pe care le purtai la ritmul muzicii şi culorilor spectacolului?!! \r\n\r\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nMulţumiri pentru sprijinul logistic acordat US TRAVEL ASSOCIATION & INTERNATIONAL POW WOW (IPW) ORLANDO','ORLANDO - Disney, Legoland și vrejul de fasole (3), MAPAMOND nr.143','','publish','open','open','','orlando-disney-legoland-si-vrejul-de-fasole-3-mapamond-nr-143','','','2016-06-14 02:18:22','2016-06-14 00:18:22','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=4600',0,'post','',0),(4601,1,'2016-06-14 01:30:02','2016-06-13 23:30:02','Stai în fotoliu şi te gândeşti: Orlando, Disney, parcuri de distracţie gândite pentru copii.

Oraşul a înregistrat puţin peste 54 de milioane de vizitatori între lunile ianuarie-iunie ale anului trecut.\r\n\r\nCe vezi prin Orlando Eye?\r\n\r\nPrima dată când am fost în Orlando, acum cinci ani, am savurat peisajul, la răsărit, făcând un zbor cu balonul. Anul trecut am testat noua atracţie, abia inaugurată: Orlando Eye. O roată cu cabine de sticlă din care admiri panorama în timpul unei ture de aproape jumătate de oră. Te uiţi şi te minunezi câte sute de hoteluri, mii de vile de închiriat şi, mai ales, milioane de copaci se văd în jurul tău. La parter poţi intra şi în Muzeul Madame Toussauds, ca să dai mâna cu starurile Americii Noi am făcut o ”miuță” cu Shaquille O\'Neal, am stat la o șuetă Audrey Hepburn despre ”Micul dejun la Tiffany”, am trecut deșertul cu Laurence Olivier și ne-am oprit în Salonul Oval de la Casa Albă unde am avut o întrevedere serioasă cu Președintele Obama pe tema Visa Waiver. Lobby-ul nostru a fost sprijinit în emisiunea celebrei Oprah, iar o susținere prietenească a venit din partea lui Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, Beyonce ori John Travolta. Apoi ne-am scufundat în lumea fascinantă de la acvariile Sea Life. După o dimineaţă uşoară, de introducere în subiectul serios al distracţiei în stil mare, faceţi o plimbare în zona pietonală a oraşului. Un fel de centru al oraşului, dezvoltat în ultimii ani, plin de restaurante şi baruri cu mâncare din ce în ce mai variată şi mai gustoasă.\r\n\r\nLegoland - să mori de râs\r\n\r\nDeschis în martie 2015 Legoland este, după cum spune şi numele, un parc tematic de distracţii făcut din piese de Lego. Poarta de acces, animalele geometrizate de la intrare, soldăţeii de pe marginea aleilor, toate sunt concepute de artişti specializaţi şi construite din milioane de piese mici de plastic. Deşi este gândit în principal pentru copii locul este foarte relaxant pentru vizitatorii de orice vârstă. Micuţii învaţă animalele şi se joacă cu nisip în zona Duplo, e plin de caruseluri şi trenuleţe. Noi am testat plimbarea cu barca pe un râu artificial şi am râs până la lacrimi implicaţi într-o bătălie fără miză, împuşcând cu apă, soldaţi din piese de lego. Am supravieţuit cascadei care ne-a surprins ambarcaţiunea, atacurilor din grotă, ne-am udat până în... şosete. Am râs cât într-un an şi, ne-am întoarce la Orlando şi dacă ar fi să repetăm doar această primă experienţă. Dacă alegeţi să ne călcaţi pe urme vă recomandăm să staţi la hotelul Lego deschis lângă parc, chiar cu câteva săptămâni înainte să-l vizităm. O să aveți ce face în una dintre cele 152 de camere, pe fiecare etaj existând teme și culori diferite care au inspirat designerii de interior . Ei au pus în valoare circa 2 milioane de piese pentru a construi circa 2000 de obiecte și spații ambientale: de la desk-ul recepției, la paturile confortabile din camere ori ușile și interioarele din lifturi. Testate și garantate și de noi.\r\n\r\nFrumoasa, Bestia și valsul hologramelor\r\n\r\nÎn 2015 parcurile Disney au aniversat 60 de ani de la inaugurarea primei locaţii în Anaheim, California, 1955. Iar pentru asta în magia şi tehnologia din spatele atracţiilor, inginerii, creatorii s-au întrecut în noutăţi. La parcul Disneyland din Orlando focurile de artificii sunt la ordinea... serii: jocurile de lumini proiectate pe castelul Cenuşăresei se împletesc cu melodiile deja clasice din coloanele sonore ale desenelor animate. Tinkerbell alunecă spre castel şi acoperă cu praf magic acoperişurile. Iar tu, privitorul, rămâi fără cuvinte, fără vârstă şi în afara timpului real atunci când, şepcuţa pe care o ai pe cap, cu urechi luminoase de Mickey Mouse, începe să vibreze în culori, pe ritmul muzicii spectacolului. Şi alături de tine, la fel fac, mii de alte urechi, care acoperă piaţa precum un covor de licurici fascinaţi de desene animate. \r\n\r\nNe-au plăcut în mod deosebit butaforiile din lumea lui Jack cu vrejul de fasole cocoţându-se spre cer, plimbările cu trenuleţul prin lumea lui Ariel. Însă magia şi fantezia s-au întrecut în creaţie pentru noua atracţie a lumii lui Belle. Ajungi la poarta de lemn, intri în casă şi, după ce ţi se prezintă povestea, participi într-o scenetă. Dacă eşti Belle dulapul începe să vorbească cu tine, se mişcă efectiv în faţa ochilor tăi şi ai vrea să îl atingi să vezi dacă e adevărat, apoi Lumiere de invită în sala de dans, unde, dacă eşti Bestia, te întreci în valsat. În jurul tău personajele desenului animat, holograme sau ce or fi fost, se mişcă şi vorbesc cu tine... la final primeşti drept amintire un semn de carte şi apoi, ore bune din noapte te gândeşti cum or fi făcut personajele să se mişte aşa. Ah, măcar de ai fi apucat să pui mâna! Dar, stai!! Cum de sincronizau urechile pe care le purtai la ritmul muzicii şi culorilor spectacolului?!! \r\n\r\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nMulţumiri pentru sprijinul logistic acordat US TRAVEL ASSOCIATION & INTERNATIONAL POW WOW (IPW) ORLANDO','ORLANDO - Disney, Legoland și vrejul de fasole (3), MAPAMOND nr.143','','inherit','closed','closed','','4600-revision-v1','','','2016-06-14 01:30:02','2016-06-13 23:30:02','',4600,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2016/06/14/4600-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4602,1,'2016-06-14 01:33:29','2016-06-13 23:33:29','O echipă de tineri care a ales să-ți vândă țara, în cazul de față Țara Maramureșului, a ajuns la concluzia că zona istorică este mai cunoscută de străini decât de către români.

Mai întîi o agenție de turism. Kristakis Travel are două puncte de lucru - la Baia Mare respectiv Ocna Șugatag, unde am și participat la deschiderea punctului de lucru și a Centrului de informare turistică. De pe aceste ”rampe” vor fi lansate programe turistice de o săptămână care să promoveze atracții sub genericul ”Descoperă Maramureșul”. Pentru ca acest proiect să fie și mai dinamic a fost pus la punct și ”Maramureș Touristic Bus”, primul autobuz care va opera pe două circuite. Radu Țiproc, directorul agenției de la Ocna Șugatag, este convins că ”aceste două produse se vor bucura de apreciere. Autoritățile locale ar trebui să fie mai implicate în susținerea turismului. E necesar să avem măcar în gară și autogară mici puncte și suporturi de promovare. În urmă cu ceva vreme au existat serpentine metalice dar au fost furate și topite la fier vechi”.\r\n

POP: „Frumusețile nu se vând singure !”
\r\nPop Ioan, un ghid montan fără vârstă, topograf și realizator de hărți, consideră că ”frumusețile Maramureșului nu se vând singure. Există atâta istorie aici, dar turistul modern trebuie întâmpinat cu o selecție relevantă care să rezoneze în memoria lui. De exemplu, avem în această zonă peste 100 de biserici din lemn. 8 dintre ele fac parte din patrimoniul universal UNESCO. Merită să le reamintesc - Bârsana, Budești, Desești, Ieud Deal, Plopiș, Poienile Izei, Rogoz și Șurdești. Este un atu ce trebuie pus în valoare. Nimic nu se vinde de la sine.”. Cristian Jakab e general manager la Kristakis. A lucrat un timp ca ghid în Grecia. După care s-a întors la Baia Mare. Cu ajutorul unor finanțări europene a înființat împreună cu mama lui (Pușa Ioana Jakab este specialistă în proiecte europene și dezvoltare în carieră) agenția de turism. E vorba de un proiect de economie socială, ce presupune crearea de locuri de muncă pentru tineri și categorii defavorizate. Numele agenției, puțin grecizat, provine de la numele său. ”De la început am avut în vedere următorul aspect. Majoritatea străinilor care vizitează Maramureșul, vin în circuitele naționale organizate de touroperatori pe 7, 10 uneori și 14 zile. Ele ating și nordul Bucovinei, Transilvania, Valea Prahovei. Stau la noi 2 maximum 3 zile iar în zonă rămân puțini bani. Turiștii români sosesc individual sau cu familiile, agreează călătoria cu mașina proprie în principal. Sunt dinamici, mobili și caută să trăiască experiențe de vacanță memorabile. Mai mult, sunt dispuși să-și lase mașina în parcare în favoarea unor oferte accesibile și ca preț și ca ofertă. E mult mai confortabil. Pentru început ne adresăm acestui segment” - afirma Cristian Jakab, în cadrul Seminarului de prezentare a pachetului turistic ”Descoperă Maramureșul” de la pensiunea ”Popasul din deal”.
\r\nDe la Bârsana la Săpânța
\r\nMaramureș Touristic Bus va funcționa din luna martie, au anunțat organizatorii. El va acoperi două trasee tematice. Primul - Circuitul bisericilor de lemn este proiectat pentru zilele de Marți și Sâmbătă. Punctul de plecare este Gara din Baia Mare, cu opriri la Biserica de lemn Șurdești-Ocna Șugatag, Bisericile de lemn Budești Susani, Călinești Căieni, Poienile Izei, Ieud și din Desești. Cel de-al doilea a fost conceput ca un Circuit de cultură și artă Maramureșeană. E promovat în zilele de Miercuri și Duminică. Plecarea este tot din Baia Mare, cu stopuri la Ocna Șugatag, Mănăstirea Bârsana, Muzeul Satului Maramureșean, Sighetu Marmației (cu muzeul memorial al victimelor comunismului, Casa Ellie Wiesel), Cimitirul Vesel Săpânța și Casa memorială Stan Ion Pătraș, respectiv Biserica de lemn Săpânța Peri. Pentru că nu există conexiuni cu acest autobuz turistic vor fi preluați turiștii direct de la pensiunile sau hotelurile din localitățile: Baia Sprie, Dănești, Șurdești, Șișești, Cavnic, Budești, Sârbi, Călinești și Breb fără niciun cost suplimentar. În cazul în care se dorește preluarea din alte localități, trasferul va fi făcut contra cost, firește. ”Vom avea ghidaj audio, dar și video. Suntem deschiși să colaborăm cu toate agențiile din țară care doresc să ofere turiștilor nu numai cazare și masă ci și experiențe unice.
\r\nPrintre clopari, horincari și bijutieri
\r\nEle sunt furnizate de oameni deosebiți, primitori, creatori și buni povestitori în jurul unui pahar de horincă. Ne dorim foarte mult să susținem munca acestor gazde și meșteri care se confruntă cu o concurență acerbă venită inclusiv de pe piața chineză. Vă imaginați sau nu, clopurile din plastic ale chinezilor, care reproduc destul de bine originalul, sunt mai ieftine și se vând ca atare. Deși o parte din meșterii populari (circa 46) sunt reuniți într-o Asociație a Artiștilor Plastici Tradiționali din Maramureș, lupta împotriva acestor falsuri este foarte dificilă. Rolul nostru este să recomandăm lucrurile autentice, specifice artizanilor locali. Cu cât vom avea mai mulți turiști cu atât demersul nostru va fi mai consistent și motivant” - mai spune Cristian.
\r\nPe câțiva i-am vizitat, pe parcursul infotripului, chiar acasă la ei. Ioan și Ileana Borlean din Vadu Izei, promovează nu numai conceptul ”turism și artă”, în principal pictura pe sticlă, respectiv țesutul pernelor, ci și un concept ospitalier format din 3 spații de cazare: Casele Tradițională, Rustică și cea a Bunicului; Victoria Berbecar, apreciată în multe țări, supraviețuiește la Botiza cu celebrele tapiserii lucrate din lânuri vopsite în culori naturale; La Sârbi, meșterul Gheorghe Opriș - care la 72 de ani a rămas cel mai vechi proprietar de moară de apă -, își derulează poveștile, muzica și arta de a introduce în sticlele de horincă mici bijuterii de lemn. Pe marginea râului Cosău, lucrează cu o instalație tehnică (cu vâltoare, moară de apă, gater, piuă cu ciocane de lemn, horincie etc) pentru care unele muzee din străinătate ar plăti bani grei; tot aici meșteresc și ”cloparii” Vasile și Manuela Borodi, cea din urmă lucrând și multe modele de țesături dar și Pătru Pop, mare sculptor în lemn, ale cărui lucrări se află azi și în colecții particulare străine. Fiecare are așteptări materiale. E normal să fie așa. Și de aceea se sprijină de credința că făcătorii de turism le vor întinde o mână mai... consistentă.
\r\nDesigur agenția Kristakis derulează și alte programe de turism, care se adresează celor ce dețin mai mult timp pentru călătorii. Pachetul de 7 zile în Maramureș este destul de generos și accesibil ca preț. De asemenea organizează și excursii în străinătate, Grecia fiind a doua recomandare de suflet.

Competiția, care se va desfășura între 10 iunie-10 iulie 2016, este a treia de acest gen găzduită de francezi, după cele din 1960 și 1984. Cum arată tabloul tehnic al competiției? 53 de echipe vor lua startul în calificări, 24 dintre acestea se vor califica în prima fază, comparativ cu 16, număr agreat la ultimele 5 ediții. În total se vor juca 51 de partide, cu 20 mai multe decât în 2012.

Rețeta este generoasă și foarte atractivă pentru turiștii ce vor sosi în Franța. Spectrul atentatelor teroriste consumate la sfârșitul anului trecut este încă prezent în sufletul călătorilor dar, după cum a declarat interlocutorul nostru încasările turistice din primul trimestru, arată că hotelurile nu au înregistrat pierderi. Francezii sunt ca atare optimiști că această competiție sportivă va contribui la păstrarea echilibrului circulației turistice și la atingerea țintelor pe care și le-au propus. Cea mai importantă: Să atragă în 2020 un număr de 100 de milioane de vizitatori străini. Pentru a atinge acest nivel oficialitățile au structurat un plan de dezvoltare care se sprijină pe trei priorități alocarea unui miliard de euro pentru acordarea de împrumuturi cu dobânzi avantajoase menite să stimuleze: construcția de noi hoteluri și modernizarea celor vechi (circa 500 de milioane); dezvoltarea infrastructurii locale și a serviciilor high-tech (400 milioane), respectiv sprijinirea cu credite avantajoase a micilor afaceri din turism (100 de milioane).\r\n![\"Rep](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Rep-france-66.jpg\")

Rețeta este generoasă și foarte atractivă pentru turiștii ce vor sosi în Franța.

Cea mai importantă: Să atragă în 2020 un număr de 100 de milioane de vizitatori străini. Pentru a atinge acest nivel oficialitățile au structurat un plan de dezvoltare care se sprijină pe trei priorități alocarea unui miliard de euro pentru acordarea de împrumuturi cu dobânzi avantajoase menite să stimuleze: construcția de noi hoteluri și modernizarea celor vechi (circa 500 de milioane); dezvoltarea infrastructurii locale și a serviciilor high-tech (400 milioane), respectiv sprijinirea cu credite avantajoase a micilor afaceri din turism (100 de milioane).\r\n\r\n

\r\nPână atunci, după cum a subliniat în deschiderea workshop-ului E.S Pascal Teixeira da Silva, ambasadorul Franței la Viena, francezii continuă să-și consolideze poziția de lider mondial pe care o deține de mai bine de 20 de ani. Anul trecut această destinație a fost frecventată de peste 84,5 milioane de turiști străini care au general încasări de circa 48 de miliarde de euro. Această industrie are o mare greutate furnizând în PIB circa 7,4% din venituri, ce sunt asigurate de serviciile oferite de 2 milioane de angajați ( dintre care 1,2 milioane de locuri de muncă directe). În fiecare an această destinație este vizitată de circa 250.000 de turiști români, cu 20.000 mai mulți decât în 2013. Alte aspecte importante: Franța continuă să se numere printre primele 5 destinații MICE din lume, conform ICCA, găzduind în fiecare an peste 1.130 de expoziții și târguri și peste 2.800 de congrese.

Alte aspecte importante: Franța continuă să se numere printre primele 5 destinații MICE din lume, conform ICCA, găzduind în fiecare an peste 1.130 de expoziții și târguri și peste 2.800 de congrese. Ne auzim la Campionatul European de Fotbal. Hai România! Hai Franța! Dar mai întâi România!\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU

Francezii sunt siguri că o să ne bată. Și eu, că noi pe ei. Până la urmă de ce să nu îi putem bate și noi la cea de-a 15 ediție a Campionatului European de Fotbal.\r\n\r\n
Dar ce o să facă echipa albanezilor la această ediție care va atrage peste 2,5 milioane de suporteri, în comparație cu doar 1,4 cât a atras Campionatul din 2012? În jurul acestui subiect au gravitat întrebările și amabilitățile conferinței de presă găzduite la hotelul Hilton Waterfront din Viena, cu ocazia desfășurării celei de-a 5-a ediții a French Rendez-Vous 2016 și a Galei ”Party French Cup” , cel mai mare eveniment de promovare turistică pentru Europa Centrală și de Est. A fost multă lume, mai mulți travel agenți dar și jurnaliști de travel și sport în prima tabără înregistrându-se peste 170 din Austria, Bosnia, Bulgaria, Croația, Cehia, Ungaria, Macedonia, Polonia, România, Serbia, Slovacia și Slovenia. Presa a fost și ea mai bine reprezentată față de anul trecut (când au fost de față doar 3 jurnaliști), asta și datorită faptului că editorilor de turism li s-au adăugat și cei de sport. În premiera a fost invitat un ziarist din Albania.\r\n\r\n
Corinne Foulquier, managerul reprezentanței pentru Austria & Europa Centrală al French Rendez-Vous, instituția emblematică care se ocupă cu promovarea turismului francez -, a subliniat aspecte interesante despre impactul pe care-l va avea apropiata ediție a Campionatului European de fotbal. Competiția, care se va desfășura între 10 iunie-10 iulie 2016, este a treia de acest gen găzduită de francezi, după cele din 1960 și 1984. Cum arată tabloul tehnic al competiției? 53 de echipe vor lua startul în calificări, 24 dintre acestea se vor califica în prima fază, comparativ cu 16, număr agreat la ultimele 5 ediții. În total se vor juca 51 de partide, cu 20 mai multe decât în 2012. Partidele vor fi transmise în 230 țări de unde vor fi urmărite de circa 150 de milioane de telespectatori.\r\n\r\n
Rețeta este generoasă și foarte atractivă pentru turiștii ce vor sosi în Franța. Spectrul atentatelor teroriste consumate la sfârșitul anului trecut este încă prezent în sufletul călătorilor dar, după cum a declarat interlocutorul nostru încasările turistice din primul trimestru, arată că hotelurile nu au înregistrat pierderi. Francezii sunt ca atare optimiști că această competiție sportivă va contribui la păstrarea echilibrului circulației turistice și la atingerea țintelor pe care și le-au propus. Cea mai importantă: Să atragă în 2020 un număr de 100 de milioane de vizitatori străini. Pentru a atinge acest nivel oficialitățile au structurat un plan de dezvoltare care se sprijină pe trei priorități alocarea unui miliard de euro pentru acordarea de împrumuturi cu dobânzi avantajoase menite să stimuleze: construcția de noi hoteluri și modernizarea celor vechi (circa 500 de milioane); dezvoltarea infrastructurii locale și a serviciilor high-tech (400 milioane), respectiv sprijinirea cu credite avantajoase a micilor afaceri din turism (100 de milioane).\r\n\r\n

Ce e de făcut pentru echilibrarea acestei balanțe?\r\n\r\n
Mai întîi o agenție de turism. Kristakis Travel are două puncte de lucru - la Baia Mare respectiv Ocna Șugatag, unde am și participat la deschiderea punctului de lucru și a Centrului de informare turistică. De pe aceste ”rampe” vor fi lansate programe turistice de o săptămână care să promoveze atracții sub genericul ”Descoperă Maramureșul”. Pentru ca acest proiect să fie și mai dinamic a fost pus la punct și ”Maramureș Touristic Bus”, primul autobuz care va opera pe două circuite. Radu Țiproc, directorul agenției de la Ocna Șugatag, este convins că ”aceste două produse se vor bucura de apreciere. Autoritățile locale ar trebui să fie mai implicate în susținerea turismului. E necesar să avem măcar în gară și autogară mici puncte și suporturi de promovare. În urmă cu ceva vreme au existat serpentine metalice dar au fost furate și topite la fier vechi”.\r\n

POP: „Frumusețile nu se vând singure !”
\r\nPop Ioan, un ghid montan fără vârstă, topograf și realizator de hărți, consideră că ”frumusețile Maramureșului nu se vând singure. Există atâta istorie aici, dar turistul modern trebuie întâmpinat cu o selecție relevantă care să rezoneze în memoria lui. De exemplu, avem în această zonă peste 100 de biserici din lemn. 8 dintre ele fac parte din patrimoniul universal UNESCO. Merită să le reamintesc - Bârsana, Budești, Desești, Ieud Deal, Plopiș, Poienile Izei, Rogoz și Șurdești. Este un atu ce trebuie pus în valoare. Nimic nu se vinde de la sine.”. Cristian Jakab e general manager la Kristakis. A lucrat un timp ca ghid în Grecia. După care s-a întors la Baia Mare. Cu ajutorul unor finanțări europene a înființat împreună cu mama lui (Pușa Ioana Jakab este specialistă în proiecte europene și dezvoltare în carieră) agenția de turism. E vorba de un proiect de economie socială, ce presupune crearea de locuri de muncă pentru tineri și categorii defavorizate. Numele agenției, puțin grecizat, provine de la numele său. ”De la început am avut în vedere următorul aspect. Majoritatea străinilor care vizitează Maramureșul, vin în circuitele naționale organizate de touroperatori pe 7, 10 uneori și 14 zile. Ele ating și nordul Bucovinei, Transilvania, Valea Prahovei. Stau la noi 2 maximum 3 zile iar în zonă rămân puțini bani. Turiștii români sosesc individual sau cu familiile, agreează călătoria cu mașina proprie în principal. Sunt dinamici, mobili și caută să trăiască experiențe de vacanță memorabile. Mai mult, sunt dispuși să-și lase mașina în parcare în favoarea unor oferte accesibile și ca preț și ca ofertă. E mult mai confortabil. Pentru început ne adresăm acestui segment” - afirma Cristian Jakab, în cadrul Seminarului de prezentare a pachetului turistic ”Descoperă Maramureșul” de la pensiunea ”Popasul din deal”.
\r\nDe la Bârsana la Săpânța
\r\nMaramureș Touristic Bus va funcționa din luna martie, au anunțat organizatorii. El va acoperi două trasee tematice. Primul - Circuitul bisericilor de lemn este proiectat pentru zilele de Marți și Sâmbătă. Punctul de plecare este Gara din Baia Mare, cu opriri la Biserica de lemn Șurdești-Ocna Șugatag, Bisericile de lemn Budești Susani, Călinești Căieni, Poienile Izei, Ieud și din Desești. Cel de-al doilea a fost conceput ca un Circuit de cultură și artă Maramureșeană. E promovat în zilele de Miercuri și Duminică. Plecarea este tot din Baia Mare, cu stopuri la Ocna Șugatag, Mănăstirea Bârsana, Muzeul Satului Maramureșean, Sighetu Marmației (cu muzeul memorial al victimelor comunismului, Casa Ellie Wiesel), Cimitirul Vesel Săpânța și Casa memorială Stan Ion Pătraș, respectiv Biserica de lemn Săpânța Peri. Pentru că nu există conexiuni cu acest autobuz turistic vor fi preluați turiștii direct de la pensiunile sau hotelurile din localitățile: Baia Sprie, Dănești, Șurdești, Șișești, Cavnic, Budești, Sârbi, Călinești și Breb fără niciun cost suplimentar. În cazul în care se dorește preluarea din alte localități, trasferul va fi făcut contra cost, firește. ”Vom avea ghidaj audio, dar și video. Suntem deschiși să colaborăm cu toate agențiile din țară care doresc să ofere turiștilor nu numai cazare și masă ci și experiențe unice.
\r\nPrintre clopari, horincari și bijutieri
\r\nEle sunt furnizate de oameni deosebiți, primitori, creatori și buni povestitori în jurul unui pahar de horincă. Ne dorim foarte mult să susținem munca acestor gazde și meșteri care se confruntă cu o concurență acerbă venită inclusiv de pe piața chineză. Vă imaginați sau nu, clopurile din plastic ale chinezilor, care reproduc destul de bine originalul, sunt mai ieftine și se vând ca atare. Deși o parte din meșterii populari (circa 46) sunt reuniți într-o Asociație a Artiștilor Plastici Tradiționali din Maramureș, lupta împotriva acestor falsuri este foarte dificilă. Rolul nostru este să recomandăm lucrurile autentice, specifice artizanilor locali. Cu cât vom avea mai mulți turiști cu atât demersul nostru va fi mai consistent și motivant” - mai spune Cristian.
\r\nPe câțiva i-am vizitat, pe parcursul infotripului, chiar acasă la ei. Ioan și Ileana Borlean din Vadu Izei, promovează nu numai conceptul ”turism și artă”, în principal pictura pe sticlă, respectiv țesutul pernelor, ci și un concept ospitalier format din 3 spații de cazare: Casele Tradițională, Rustică și cea a Bunicului; Victoria Berbecar, apreciată în multe țări, supraviețuiește la Botiza cu celebrele tapiserii lucrate din lânuri vopsite în culori naturale; La Sârbi, meșterul Gheorghe Opriș - care la 72 de ani a rămas cel mai vechi proprietar de moară de apă -, își derulează poveștile, muzica și arta de a introduce în sticlele de horincă mici bijuterii de lemn. Pe marginea râului Cosău, lucrează cu o instalație tehnică (cu vâltoare, moară de apă, gater, piuă cu ciocane de lemn, horincie etc) pentru care unele muzee din străinătate ar plăti bani grei; tot aici meșteresc și ”cloparii” Vasile și Manuela Borodi, cea din urmă lucrând și multe modele de țesături dar și Pătru Pop, mare sculptor în lemn, ale cărui lucrări se află azi și în colecții particulare străine. Fiecare are așteptări materiale. E normal să fie așa. Și de aceea se sprijină de credința că făcătorii de turism le vor întinde o mână mai... consistentă.
\r\nDesigur agenția Kristakis derulează și alte programe de turism, care se adresează celor ce dețin mai mult timp pentru călătorii. Pachetul de 7 zile în Maramureș este destul de generos și accesibil ca preț. De asemenea organizează și excursii în străinătate, Grecia fiind a doua recomandare de suflet.

Hm, să zbor până în America pentru asta?! Ce idee! Ei bine, testat şi garantat, e una dintre cele mai bune idei de vacanţă pe care le poţi avea pentru 2016.\n\n\n\n\nÎn Orlando distracţia e cuvântul la ordinea zilei iar distracţia şi starea de bine sunt molipsitoare. Lasă prejudecăţile de adult şi lasă-te dus de val... Îţi prezentăm în continuare ultimele atracţii deschise anul trecut. Un oraş tipic american, ar spune unii, Orlando se întinde generos, printre mlaştini, păduri de pini, înfrumuseţat cu salbe de autostrăzi line. Conduci de la un capăt la altul, în trafic normal cam o oră şi peste tot vezi hoteluri şi complexe rezidenţiale cu vile în culori pastelate şi grădini şi vegetaţie care se răsfaţă în soarele unei Floride toride în general. Se construieşte în continuu căci Orlando este capitala distracţiei pe coasta de Est. Oraşul a înregistrat puţin peste 54 de milioane de vizitatori între lunile ianuarie-iunie ale anului trecut.\n\n\n\nCe vezi prin Orlando Eye?\n\nPrima dată când am fost în Orlando, acum cinci ani, am savurat peisajul, la răsărit, făcând un zbor cu balonul. Anul trecut am testat noua atracţie, abia inaugurată: Orlando Eye. O roată cu cabine de sticlă din care admiri panorama în timpul unei ture de aproape jumătate de oră. Te uiţi şi te minunezi câte sute de hoteluri, mii de vile de închiriat şi, mai ales, milioane de copaci se văd în jurul tău. La parter poţi intra şi în Muzeul Madame Toussauds, ca să dai mâna cu starurile Americii Noi am făcut o ”miuță” cu Shaquille O\'Neal, am stat la o șuetă Audrey Hepburn despre ”Micul dejun la Tiffany”, am trecut deșertul cu Laurence Olivier și ne-am oprit în Salonul Oval de la Casa Albă unde am avut o întrevedere serioasă cu Președintele Obama pe tema Visa Waiver. Lobby-ul nostru a fost sprijinit în emisiunea celebrei Oprah, iar o susținere prietenească a venit din partea lui Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, Beyonce ori John Travolta. Apoi ne-am scufundat în lumea fascinantă de la acvariile Sea Life. După o dimineaţă uşoară, de introducere în subiectul serios al distracţiei în stil mare, faceţi o plimbare în zona pietonală a oraşului. Un fel de centru al oraşului, dezvoltat în ultimii ani, plin de restaurante şi baruri cu mâncare din ce în ce mai variată şi mai gustoasă.\n\nLegoland - să mori de râs\n\nDeschis în martie 2015 Legoland este, după cum spune şi numele, un parc tematic de distracţii făcut din piese de Lego. Poarta de acces, animalele geometrizate de la intrare, soldăţeii de pe marginea aleilor, toate sunt concepute de artişti specializaţi şi construite din milioane de piese mici de plastic. Deşi este gândit în principal pentru copii locul este foarte relaxant pentru vizitatorii de orice vârstă. Micuţii învaţă animalele şi se joacă cu nisip în zona Duplo, e plin de caruseluri şi trenuleţe. Noi am testat plimbarea cu barca pe un râu artificial şi am râs până la lacrimi implicaţi într-o bătălie fără miză, împuşcând cu apă, soldaţi din piese de lego. Am supravieţuit cascadei care ne-a surprins ambarcaţiunea, atacurilor din grotă, ne-am udat până în... şosete. Am râs cât într-un an şi, ne-am întoarce la Orlando şi dacă ar fi să repetăm doar această primă experienţă. Dacă alegeţi să ne călcaţi pe urme vă recomandăm să staţi la hotelul Lego deschis lângă parc, chiar cu câteva săptămâni înainte să-l vizităm. O să aveți ce face în una dintre cele 152 de camere, pe fiecare etaj existând teme și culori diferite care au inspirat designerii de interior . Ei au pus în valoare circa 2 milioane de piese pentru a construi circa 2000 de obiecte și spații ambientale: de la desk-ul recepției, la paturile confortabile din camere ori ușile și interioarele din lifturi. Testate și garantate și de noi.\n\nFrumoasa, Bestia și valsul hologramelor\n\nÎn 2015 parcurile Disney au aniversat 60 de ani de la inaugurarea primei locaţii în Anaheim, California, 1955. Iar pentru asta în magia şi tehnologia din spatele atracţiilor, inginerii, creatorii s-au întrecut în noutăţi. La parcul Disneyland din Orlando focurile de artificii sunt la ordinea... serii: jocurile de lumini proiectate pe castelul Cenuşăresei se împletesc cu melodiile deja clasice din coloanele sonore ale desenelor animate.

Hm, să zbor până în America pentru asta?! Ce idee! Ei bine, testat şi garantat, e una dintre cele mai bune idei de vacanţă pe care le poţi avea pentru 2016.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nÎn Orlando distracţia e cuvântul la ordinea zilei iar distracţia şi starea de bine sunt molipsitoare. Lasă prejudecăţile de adult şi lasă-te dus de val... Îţi prezentăm în continuare ultimele atracţii deschise anul trecut. Un oraş tipic american, ar spune unii, Orlando se întinde generos, printre mlaştini, păduri de pini, înfrumuseţat cu salbe de autostrăzi line. Conduci de la un capăt la altul, în trafic normal cam o oră şi peste tot vezi hoteluri şi complexe rezidenţiale cu vile în culori pastelate şi grădini şi vegetaţie care se răsfaţă în soarele unei Floride toride în general. Se construieşte în continuu căci Orlando este capitala distracţiei pe coasta de Est. Oraşul a înregistrat puţin peste 54 de milioane de vizitatori între lunile ianuarie-iunie ale anului trecut.\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery ids=\"4634,4636,4637,4639,4640,4641\"]\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCe vezi prin Orlando Eye?\r\n\r\nPrima dată când am fost în Orlando, acum cinci ani, am savurat peisajul, la răsărit, făcând un zbor cu balonul. Anul trecut am testat noua atracţie, abia inaugurată: Orlando Eye. O roată cu cabine de sticlă din care admiri panorama în timpul unei ture de aproape jumătate de oră. Te uiţi şi te minunezi câte sute de hoteluri, mii de vile de închiriat şi, mai ales, milioane de copaci se văd în jurul tău. La parter poţi intra şi în Muzeul Madame Toussauds, ca să dai mâna cu starurile Americii Noi am făcut o ”miuță” cu Shaquille O\'Neal, am stat la o șuetă Audrey Hepburn despre ”Micul dejun la Tiffany”, am trecut deșertul cu Laurence Olivier și ne-am oprit în Salonul Oval de la Casa Albă unde am avut o întrevedere serioasă cu Președintele Obama pe tema Visa Waiver. Lobby-ul nostru a fost sprijinit în emisiunea celebrei Oprah, iar o susținere prietenească a venit din partea lui Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, Beyonce ori John Travolta. Apoi ne-am scufundat în lumea fascinantă de la acvariile Sea Life. După o dimineaţă uşoară, de introducere în subiectul serios al distracţiei în stil mare, faceţi o plimbare în zona pietonală a oraşului. Un fel de centru al oraşului, dezvoltat în ultimii ani, plin de restaurante şi baruri cu mâncare din ce în ce mai variată şi mai gustoasă.\r\n\r\nLegoland - să mori de râs\r\n\r\nDeschis în martie 2015 Legoland este, după cum spune şi numele, un parc tematic de distracţii făcut din piese de Lego. Poarta de acces, animalele geometrizate de la intrare, soldăţeii de pe marginea aleilor, toate sunt concepute de artişti specializaţi şi construite din milioane de piese mici de plastic. Deşi este gândit în principal pentru copii locul este foarte relaxant pentru vizitatorii de orice vârstă. Micuţii învaţă animalele şi se joacă cu nisip în zona Duplo, e plin de caruseluri şi trenuleţe. Noi am testat plimbarea cu barca pe un râu artificial şi am râs până la lacrimi implicaţi într-o bătălie fără miză, împuşcând cu apă, soldaţi din piese de lego. Am supravieţuit cascadei care ne-a surprins ambarcaţiunea, atacurilor din grotă, ne-am udat până în... şosete. Am râs cât într-un an şi, ne-am întoarce la Orlando şi dacă ar fi să repetăm doar această primă experienţă. Dacă alegeţi să ne călcaţi pe urme vă recomandăm să staţi la hotelul Lego deschis lângă parc, chiar cu câteva săptămâni înainte să-l vizităm. O să aveți ce face în una dintre cele 152 de camere, pe fiecare etaj existând teme și culori diferite care au inspirat designerii de interior . Ei au pus în valoare circa 2 milioane de piese pentru a construi circa 2000 de obiecte și spații ambientale: de la desk-ul recepției, la paturile confortabile din camere ori ușile și interioarele din lifturi. Testate și garantate și de noi.\r\n\r\nFrumoasa, Bestia și valsul hologramelor\r\n\r\nÎn 2015 parcurile Disney au aniversat 60 de ani de la inaugurarea primei locaţii în Anaheim, California, 1955. Iar pentru asta în magia şi tehnologia din spatele atracţiilor, inginerii, creatorii s-au întrecut în noutăţi. La parcul Disneyland din Orlando focurile de artificii sunt la ordinea... serii: jocurile de lumini proiectate pe castelul Cenuşăresei se împletesc cu melodiile deja clasice din coloanele sonore ale desenelor animate. Tinkerbell alunecă spre castel şi acoperă cu praf magic acoperişurile. Iar tu, privitorul, rămâi fără cuvinte, fără vârstă şi în afara timpului real atunci când, şepcuţa pe care o ai pe cap, cu urechi luminoase de Mickey Mouse, începe să vibreze în culori, pe ritmul muzicii spectacolului.

O mare parte se află în tururi ghidate și provin de pe vasele de croazieră dunărene. Alții au venit în grup sau individual ca să se dumirească, indiferent că ninge, plouă sau că sunt 40 de grade la umbră -, de ce este așa de specială cetatea Veliko Târnovo!\r\n\r\n
Te intersectezi cu ei. Și te trezești punându-ți aceeași întrebare! Prima observație. Nu numai cetatea ci întreg orașul cu peste 70.000 de locuitori, dintre care vreo 20.000 sunt studenți -, reprezintă un magnet turistic care a fost modelat cu mare atenție de-a lungul deceniilor de către administrația turistică bulgară. Sigur, prima recomandare este să vizitezi cetatea. Pe parcursul timpului alocat vei afla că Veliko Târnovo înseamnă Marele Tron, nume care a fost dat în perioada Primului Țarat Bulgar (680-1018). Dar așezarea este mult mai veche, firește, și are tangență cu antichitatea și împăratul Traian care a dezvoltat în zonă așezarea Nikopolis ad Istrum. Era puternică degrabă ce își bătea monedă proprie, iar pentru divertisment organiza lupte de gladiatori. Ruinele pot fi vizitate la câțiva kilometri de Veliko. Care a fost și capitală a Bulgariei între secolele XII și XIV începând cu anul 1187. Din cetatea cu drumuri de acces pietruite ca în vechime, poți lesne observa silueta Palatului Țarului și a Patriarhiei Bulgariei, restaurate și accesibile vizitatorilor. Ca mai peste tot otomanii au trecut prin tăvălugul războaielor și aceste locuri, stopând pentru aproape 480 de ani înflorirea culturală și economică. Cu toate acestea la 1878 după Eliberare la Veliko (ce pe atunci se numea Tarrnovgrad) a fost întocmită prima Constituție a țării.La acea vreme era una dintre cele mai democratice din Europa. Tot aici, un an mai târziu, Alexander Battenberg a fost ales Cneaz, șef al statului bulgar, după care Capitala s-a mutat la Sofia. Și, gata, cu istoria !\r\n
\r\n[gallery columns=\"2\" ids=\"4644,4645,4646,4647,4648,4649\"]\r\n\r\n
Stop cadru călare !
\r\nCetatea de la Veliko Târnovo este restaurată cu atenție. Ca în multe altele și în interiorul acesteia, cățărată pe un vârf de deal, se află o biserică interesantă. E înconjurată de mai multe suporturi cu clopote care amintesc de vechile invazii ce erau alarmate de aici, iar în interior se află mai multe fresce și picturi, realizate într-un stil modern, șocant pentru cei obișnuiți cu liniile canonice, dar pline de mesaj și bun gust. Ea sugerează că în interiorul zidurilor a activat cândva Școala de pictură Târnovo - întemeiată ca și cea de Literatură de către Patriarhii Evtimii și Teodosii Târnovski -, a cărei valoare era recunoscută pe plan european. Pe parcursul turului veți putea admira sculpturi și elemente de heraldică specifice, reprezentative pentru evoluția și restaurarea cetății. Dacă vrei să te dai mare și rege, ai ocazia să te imortalizezi, pe un cal de lemn, îmbrăcat și înarmat în stilul epocii. Recuzită e oferită contra-cost firește, de către animatori întreprinzători. De la ei aflăm că în interiorul cetății au loc în fiecare an festivaluri culturale, care reînvie o parte din tradițiile artistice și meșteșugărești ale bulgarilor.
\r\nUn titlu de la IHRA
\r\nO pauză de cafea e binemeritată. Dar pentru a înțelege viața și vibrația zidurilor înghețate de istorie, luați-o din loc, direct spre Centru Multimedia de Informare Turistică. Jumătate muzeu, jumătate Centru de informare, un mariaj foarte potrivit proiectat și finalizat cu finanțare europeană. La ghișeul de intrare se află pliante și broșuri în toate limbile de circulație internațională, dar și în română, semn că pe aici trec anual zeci de mii de vecini. Parcurgând sălile cu exponate ești impresionat de statuile realizate din ceară și fibră de sticlă în mărime naturală, care exprimă ipostaze și ritualuri ale istoriei, susținute de motive din muzica originală a formării etnice IRFAN. Urmărind siluetele domnitorilor glorioși de la Târnovo, țarii Kaloyan și Ivan Asen II, pe cea a Reginei Ana-Maria, pe a vicarului papal Cardinalul Leo, ori pe ale nobililor, călugărilor, patriarhilor și meșteșugarilor înțelegi mai profund de ce acest loc a fost numit în istorie ”Orașul regal protejat de Dumnezeu”, ”Regele orașelor”, ”Al doilea Constantinopol”, ”A treia Romă” etc. Și, mai recent, în 2010, titlul de ”Capitală Balcanică a turismului cultural”, acordat de către Asociația Internațională a Hotelierilor și Restauratorilor (IHRA).
\r\nRătăciți-vă prin Mahala
\r\nDacă n-aveți timp trebuie să vă faceți. Pentru experiențe alternative. Bulgarii au conservat foarte bine tot ceea ce dă culoare și specific turistic. Nu ratați, că e păcat, Casele boierilor și bisericile risipite vertical pe Dealul Trapezița. Dar mai ales cartierul meșteșugarilor Assenova Mahala, extins de-a lungul timpului între cele două dealuri marcate de râul Yantra. Dacă tot vorbim de superlative mai aflați că în Evul Mediu, locul a fost recunoscut drept ”cel mai fortificat și cel mai frumos oraș din Hemus” (adică din Balcani). La fel de frumos este și astăzi, cu străzile pietruite ca în vechime (nu ca noi fraierii, care am asfaltat aleile din cetățile medievale de parcă soldații călăreau pe autostrăzi), și în centru comercial aflat pe ”Samovodska Ciarșia” înțesat de magazine cu suveniruri, cosmetice (trandafirul fiind suportul oricărui produs), galerii de artă și bijuterii, bistrouri, restaurante, mici localuri unde ai ocazia să te delectezi la prețuri modice, cu meniuri gustoase. Desfătați-vă măcar cu un desert, marca Veliko: Kadaif și dulceață albă împreună cu o cafea turcească la nisip fierbinte. Ridicați capul, pentru că deasupra voastră veți descoperi case cu arhitectură ce amintește de ceea ce se întâlnea cândva și în Centrul Vechi din București.
\r\nȘi nu uitați de Brâncoveanu
\r\nSpectacolul de noapte de Sunet și Lumini este o altă marcă de referință a turismului de la Veliko Târnovo. Este cea mai impresionantă atracție de seară a orașului care bate de la mare distanță discoteci, baruri, 3 și 4 D și orice! Este și cel mai longeviv spectacol, probabil din Europa, primul producându-se în 1985. Muzica, jocurile de lumini, efectele laserelor care mătură cerul, sunetele clopotelor de la biserici, toate contribuie la o altă recreere a unor fragmente din istoria bulgară. Cel mai bun loc pentru vizionare îl reprezintă restaurantul Yantra. Spectacolele sunt oferite gratuit de sărbători naționale și oficiale ale orașului. În rest sunt organizate contra cost, la cerere, pentru grupuri de vizitatori.
\r\nDacă v-ați proiectat cazarea pentru mai multe zile, o mini-vacanță sau un weekend, vă sugerăm să o faceți la numai 4 kilometri de Veliko. În satul Arbanasi. A fost cândva reședință de vară a boierilor. Un loc nepereche unde se îmbină arhitectura renascentistă cu case-cetăți sufocate de verdeață luxuriantă. Vă mai spunem doar un nume - Constantin Brâncoveanu. Restul descoperiți dumneavoastră.

As explained by Rafael Schvartzman, Regional Vice President Europe, during the audit, which involves approximately 900 standards and recommended practices the following areas are assessed: flight operations, operational control and flight dispatch, aircraft engineering and maintenance, cabin operations, ground handling operations, cargo operations and security management. After obtaining the IOSA certification Blue Air became, beginning of 2016, a full member of IATA (International Air Transport Association). IATA reunites 260 airlines in 119 countries. „Our adheration to IATA is an important step in the history of the company, opening the door to partnerships with other carriers.

\nWhat CNN recommends in Romania?
\nThe travel writers at CNN made a list of 16 destinations that are worth visiting in 2016. Romania is listed together with places like Mongolia, Papua New Guinee, Iceland, Geenland, Norway, Madagascar or Iran. The tourists are encouraged to visit the center of the country, the city of Cluj-Napoca and Bran Castle in Transilvanya, as well as the Danube Delta : “Central Romania is engulfed in the soaring Carpathian mountain range, filled with green groves and ski and hiking trails for adventure-heads. What isn\'t well known is that Romania catches the Danube Delta at its southern tip, where wetlands prove fertile ground. Head here for hiking, birding and fishing. Or go gallery hopping in Cluj-Napoca, a hotly-tipped future art scene. But of course the nation is best known for bloodsucking myths of Dracula, werewolves and ghosts.” CNN online edition recommends to visit Romania springtime or in the autumn months.
\nGoogle votes the Palace of Parliament
\nThe Chamber of Deputes and Google launched at the end of January an online platform that allows to virtually visit the Palace of Parliament in Bucharest – Romania. The initiative belongs to a Romanian, emplyee of Google Ireland.
\nValeriu Zgonea, president of Chamber of Deputes said that almost 150 paintings can be seen on Google Cultural Institute, together with the rooms and halls of the Parliament that are regularly opened for the public to visit. According to the Director of Google Romania, Dan Bulucea, the istitution is the first Parliament of Central and Eastern Europe that can be visited using the platform provided by Google Cultural Institute.
\nGura Humorului is in TOP JATA
\nThe Japanese Association of Travel Agents (JATA) published a chart of the most beautiful 30 European small towns, less known to the travelling public. JATA used the suggestions of the travel agencies in Japan but also of the visitors to the Continent. For Romania the votes went to the town of Gura Humorului in the northern part of the country, in the historical region of Bucovina. Gura Humorului, located in a mountainous, among forests, at the confluence of Humor and Moldova River, is appreciated by the voters also for its beautifully colored architectural sites, being one of the gateways to the Unesco Heritage Painted Monasteries. Other destinations liked by the Japanese public in Europe are: Berat, in Albania; Civita di Bagnoregio, in Italy; Lech, in Austria; Hindeloopen, in Holland; Lefkara, in Cyprus; Rovinj, in Croatia; Piran, in Slovenia; Marianske-Lazne, in Czech Republic; Quedlinburg, in Germany; Golyazi, in Turkey; Sopron, in Hungary etc.
\nEXPEDIA: Romania is 25 in Shopping
\nExpedia, one of the largest on-line travel agencies, created a top for last year, ranking the most attractive 25 cities of the world where one should go shopping. The producers rated the attitude of the retailers, the annual visitors’ number and the purchasing power. The Capital of Romania, Bucharest, obtained 11 points out of 30 and got the 25th position, having a 9 for purchasing power. The ranking producers underline how cheap the local transportation is (0,24pp), while a pair of Levi’s is 39,62 GBP, and a pair of Nike is 44,67 GBP.
\nThe first 5 places to shop, in the vision of Expedia, are: New York, Berlin, Los Angeles, London and Kuala Lumpur, while the five positions before Bucharest are taken by Edinburg, Melbourne, Vienna, Cape Town and Amsterdam.

The IOSA program is an internationally recognized and accepted evaluation system designed to assess the operational management and control systems of an airline. As explained by Rafael Schvartzman, Regional Vice President Europe, during the audit, which involves approximately 900 standards and recommended practices the following areas are assessed: flight operations, operational control and flight dispatch, aircraft engineering and maintenance, cabin operations, ground handling operations, cargo operations and security management. After obtaining the IOSA certification Blue Air became, beginning of 2016, a full member of IATA (International Air Transport Association). IATA reunites 260 airlines in 119 countries. „Our adheration to IATA is an important step in the history of the company, opening the door to partnerships with other carriers. In such a way that we will be able to offer to passengers more options and in the same time more accesible” – said Gheorghe Racaru, General Director of Blue Air.\r\n\r\n

\r\nWhat CNN recommends in Romania?
\r\nThe travel writers at CNN made a list of 16 destinations that are worth visiting in 2016. Romania is listed together with places like Mongolia, Papua New Guinee, Iceland, Geenland, Norway, Madagascar or Iran. The tourists are encouraged to visit the center of the country, the city of Cluj-Napoca and Bran Castle in Transilvanya, as well as the Danube Delta : “Central Romania is engulfed in the soaring Carpathian mountain range, filled with green groves and ski and hiking trails for adventure-heads. What isn\'t well known is that Romania catches the Danube Delta at its southern tip, where wetlands prove fertile ground. Head here for hiking, birding and fishing. Or go gallery hopping in Cluj-Napoca, a hotly-tipped future art scene. But of course the nation is best known for bloodsucking myths of Dracula, werewolves and ghosts.” CNN online edition recommends to visit Romania springtime or in the autumn months.\r\n\r\n

\r\n4 AUTORI și ”șahul turistic”
\r\nDe aproape patru decenii numele lor au fost întâlnit în diverse combinații didactice care au condus la apariția unor cărți ce au modelat generații de studenți. Nicolae Neacșu, Petre Baron, Vasile Glăvan și Monica Neacșu s-au grupat de data aceasta pentru a promova o ediție modernă cu titlul ”Geografia și economia turismului”. Primii doi au fost și miniștri post-revoluționari în branșă. Asta pe vremea când se căutau oamenii care chiar știau cu ce se mănâncă turismul. Cartea, produsă de editura Pro Universitaria, prezintă în 700 de pagini, noțiuni stratificate de geografie și economie turistică, cei doi piloni ce asigură orientarea în învățământul universitar, liceal, geografic și economic, de turism. Autorii conturează cu fermitate o tablă de șah globală pe care observăm cum factori neimportanți cândva devin decisivi peste cîteva decenii, favorizînd țări sau zone să devină atracții turistice. Când te gândești cât de tînără e branșa! Doar turismul organizat a apărut în 1841, în Anglia cînd a luat ființă Thomas Cook, primul birou de voiaj și prima firmă touroperatoare din lume.
\r\nCe a pus la cale RĂZVAN VONCU ?\r\n\r\n
Aproape toți scriitorii români, și desigur nu numai ei, au fost consumatori rafinați ori ”esteți” ai licorilor bahice. Ei bine, Răzvan Voncu, autorul cărții ”O istorie literară a vinului în România”, spune chiar de la începutul cărții că a dorit să întocmească o lucrare didactică despre literatură și vin. Cu marele risc că maniera de abordare poate deveni obositoare chiar și pentru un cititor inițiat. Critic și istoric literar la Facultatea de litere a Universității din București, Răzvan Voncu ne oferă la editura Curtea Veche o incursiune prin 500 de pagini, în lumea vinului privit ca un obiect istoric, o ființă vie, o licoare care creează mitologie în rândul scriitorilor etc. ”Nefiind un etalon estetic, vinul nu este nici unul moral. Literatura română, conservatoare la alte capitole, este liberală în materie de vin și derivate, echilibrul ei ”între antiteze” - scrierile exaltând virtuțiile licorii și, respectiv, cele de propagandă deschisă sau camumflată, a abstinenței fiind evident. Licoare de uz sacramental, Vinul este/poate fi un excelent sinonim al Timpului”. Citatul este doar o invitație de a consuma această carte. Firește, alături de un pahar cu vin.

Turiștii sunt îndemnați să viziteze centrul țării, înconjurat de sălbăticia munților, orașul Cluj-Napoca, castelul Bran dar și Rezervația Biosferei Delta Dunării, ce a primit, în 2009, din partea FIJET, trofeul Golden Apple. „Mai puțin cunoscut este faptul ca România se bucură de Delta Dunării, în partea de sud, unde zonele umede s-au dovedit terenuri fertile. Mergi aici pentru drumeții, bird watching și pescuit. Sau alegi galeriile de artă din Cluj-Napoca. Dar, desigur, țara este cel mai bine cunoscută pentru mituri despre vampirul Dracula, vârcolaci și fantome”.

GOOGLE PUNE PALATUL PARLAMENTULUI PE PLATFORMĂ
\r\nCamera Deputaților și Google au lansat în cadrul unui parteneriat, la sfârșitul lunii ianuarie, platforma online ce permite realizarea unui tur virtual al Palatului Parlamentului. Inițiativa aparține unui român angajat la Google Irlanda. Valeriu Zgonea, președintele Camerei Deputaților a declarat că aproape 150 de picturi au fost expuse pe platforma Google Cultural Institute, alături de sălile din clădire care sunt deschise publicului. Potrivit directorului Google România, Dan Bulucea, Palatul Parlamentului este primul parlament din Europa centrală și de est care poate fi vizitat pe platforma Google Cultural Institute.\r\n\r\n
VOR VENI 100.000 DE RUȘI?
\r\nOptimism, fără nici un suport, al liderului Autorității Naționale pentru Turism (ANT). După ce a participat la Moscova la o întâlnire cu peste 20 de tour-operatori români și cam 100 de reprezentanți ruși, Anca Pavel Nedea, președintele ANT a acreditat ideea că în 2016 vor veni la noi circa 100.000 de turiști ruși. Asta în condițiile în care anul trecut au fost aproximativ 20.000. Conjunctura e favorabilă, dar puțină decență nu strică. Litoral la Marea Neagră au acum și rușii. Mai realist a părut Aurelian Marin, preşedintele ANAT care crede cã: ”Dacã ne dorim turistii ruşi, şi acum este momentul sã-i atragem, trebuie investit urgent în promovarea României în Federaţia Rusã. Cu o acţiune singularã, participarea la târgul de turism de la Moscova, nu vom reuşi sã creștem fluxul de turiti spre România”.\r\n\r\n
DUNÃREA SACRÃ ȘI ÎMPÃRÃTEASCÃ

Evenimentul, primul dintr-un ciclu dedicat Dunãrii, a fost organizat de cãtre Clubul România – UNESCO şi Federaţia Românã a Asociaţiilor, Cluburilor şi Centrelor pentru UNESCO - ne-a precizat Iulia Grumãzescu - Director Comunicare al Muzeului Național al Satului.
\r\n EVENIMENT AȘTEPTAT LA SINAIA\r\n\r\nDin 11 februarie a fost inaugurată în stațiunea montană Sinaia Gondola Carp, ultima și cea mai importantã investiție publicã (în valoare de 9 milioane de lei) în sectorul turistic, realizatã la Sinaia. Ea asigurã conexiunea dintre cele douã zone schiabile ale staþiunii Sinaia: cea de joasã altitudine (Cota 1400) þi cea aflatã la înaltã altitudine (Cota 2000). Instalația încorporeazã mai multe performanțe tehnice: este construitã pe cel mai abrupt segment de transport pe cablu, având o înclinație de 45 de grade la primii trei piloni; oferã 42 de gondole a câte 8 locuri, asigurând transportul a 1500 de persoane pe orã; tronsonul 1400-2000 reprezintã cea mai modernã instalaþie de transport pe cablu din România. Cu același prilej a fost lansat și un Skipass unic (în valoare de 140 lei), ce permite accesul la domeniul schiabil de 25 de kilometri de pârtii acoperit de cele 3 instalații și tronsoane. \r\n”STEAUA MĂRILOR” VA VENI LA CONSTANŢA
\r\nÎntre 22 și 25 iunie se va desfășura în Marea Neagră, la Odessa (Ucraina) Adunarea Generala a MedCruise. Până acum zece președinti de companii de top și-au anunțat participarea la eveniment.

\nORBIS HOTEL își anunțã ofensiva\n\n
\n\nprintr-un contract strategic 46 hoteluri din 6 țări din Europa, printre care și România. Acesta a anunțat că va deschide în 2017 două noi unități hoteliere: primul ibis Styles în Arad și al doilea hotel Mercure, la Brașov.\n\n![\"Orbis](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Orbis-hotel-5.jpg\")
\n\nHotelul ibis Styles Arad va fi o construcție nouă, cu 72 de camere, și se va clasifica în categoria de 3 stele. ibis Styles Arad este deținut de FAB Industry, membră a grupului Mr. FAB. Mercure Brașov Hotel & SPA, ce va avea 120 de camere, este cel de-al doilea hotel Mercure ce se va deschide în România și primul din afara Bucureștiului. Inaugurarea este programată pentru ultima parte a lui 2017. Orbis Hotel Group este cea mai mare rețea hotelierã din Polonia și Europa de Est iar investitorul sãu strategic este operatorul hotelier AccorHotels, lider la nivel global. Gilles Clavie, Președinte și CEO al Orbis Hotel Group confirmã: “România este o piațã foarte promițãtoare, cu un potențial extraordinar. Dacã ne gândim la PIB-ul crescãtor și la volumul de piațã care s-a îmbunãtãțit, România este una dintre piețele cheie din regiune și un element important în strategia noastrã de dezvoltare. Obiectivul nostru în România este sa ne extindem rețeaua hotelierã și sã devenim lideri de piațã în urmãtorii ani.” “Am ales ibis Styles, un bine cunoscut brand hotelier internațional, astfel încât sã putem beneficia de canalele de rezervãri, vânzãri și marketing, de programele de loialitate și de tot sprijinul oferit de AccorHotels și Orbis. Suntem încrezãtori ca va fi o colaborare valoroasã pentru ambele pãrți.”– a declarat dl. Flavius Balaj, proprietarul FAB Industry, companie ce deține hotelul, parte a grupului Mr. FAB. Cu o experiențã de peste 20 de ani, Mr. FAB activeazã în domeniul construcțiilor industriale.\n\nMercure Brașov Hotel & SPA este cel de-al doilea hotel Mercure ce se va deschide în România și primul din afara Bucureștiului. Brașov, cel mai mare oraș din Transilvania și unul dintre cele mai frumoase orașe din România, comparat adesea cu faimoase orașe medievale din Europa, este un spațiu care continuã sã se dezvolte de la an la an. De aceea numãrul de turiști a crescut în fiecare an, în 2014 acesta ajungând la 1.000.000 de vizitatori. Situat la marginea orașului, aproape de DN1, noul Hotel Mercure va oferi clienților sãi un mediu relaxant și lipsit de stres, datorat panoramei cãtre munții Tâmpa, Bunloc și Piatra Mare. El va dispune de un restaurant cu terasã, douã baruri, patru sãli de conferințã și un centru de afaceri. Pentru divertisment și relaxare, noul Mercure va oferi oaspeților sãi o zonã de wellness (saunã, hammam etc), SPA, centru de fitness și piscinã. Viitoarea deschidere este rezultatul unui parteneriat de tip francizã, încheiat cu Barbati Invest Real Estate SRL. Angelo Barbato, proprietarul Barbati, activeazã pe piața din Brașov de peste zece ani, fiind implicat în investiții majore de succes. Prin semnarea acordului de francizã pentru construirea hotelului Mercure cu Orbis Hotel Group, partener strategic în regiune al AccorHotels, operatorul hotelier mondial de top, investitorul dorește sã continue dezvoltarea pe piața din Brașov. “România este o țarã stabilã, și atât astãzi, cât și pe termen lung, meritã sã investești aici.” Angelo Barbato a ales sã investeascã în Brașov deoarece este un oraș situat în centrul țãrii, care va deveni un nod rutier important, în care în curând se va construi și un aeroport. “Îmi imaginez un loc pentru distracție, recreere și relaxare, în care oaspeții sunt tratați ca membri ai familiei, serviciile oferite fiind la cele mai înalte standarde. Și atunci când vorbim despre servicii, trebuie sã menționãm, pe lângã atmosfera pe care noi o vom crea cu succes, și rãsfãțarea clienților cu tot ceea ce își doresc” – comenteazã Angelo Barbato. \n\nKOLLER a vândut 10 hoteluri K+K\n\n
\n\n\nLuxten Lighting Company a înghițit 25% din acțiunile pe care Le Manoir Gastronomie (controlată de către soții Cristian și Maria Preotu) le deținea la hotelul Lux Garden din Azuga. Astfel el a devenit proprietar într-o proporție de aproape 100% al acestui complex. Tranzacția s-a făcut ”în familie”, o datorie de 6,39 milioane lei fiind convertită în acțiuni printr-o majorare de capital. Le Manoir Gastronomie, fondată în 2009 s-a ocupat de dezvoltarea business-ului hotelului de 5 stele Lux Garden.

Vânzãri, reorganizãri, tranzacții regrupate. Contracte de absorbție. Toate s-au regãsit la sfârșitul anului trecut și în industria hotelierã autohtonã. 2016 pare sã lanseze noi șlagãre ale businessului, semn cã avem lipici la brandurile strãine.
\r\nORBIS HOTEL își anunțã ofensiva\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nprintr-un contract strategic 46 hoteluri din 6 țări din Europa, printre care și România. Acesta a anunțat că va deschide în 2017 două noi unități hoteliere: primul ibis Styles în Arad și al doilea hotel Mercure, la Brașov.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nHotelul ibis Styles Arad va fi o construcție nouă, cu 72 de camere, și se va clasifica în categoria de 3 stele. ibis Styles Arad este deținut de FAB Industry, membră a grupului Mr. FAB. Mercure Brașov Hotel & SPA, ce va avea 120 de camere, este cel de-al doilea hotel Mercure ce se va deschide în România și primul din afara Bucureștiului. Inaugurarea este programată pentru ultima parte a lui 2017. Orbis Hotel Group este cea mai mare rețea hotelierã din Polonia și Europa de Est iar investitorul sãu strategic este operatorul hotelier AccorHotels, lider la nivel global. Gilles Clavie, Președinte și CEO al Orbis Hotel Group confirmã: “România este o piațã foarte promițãtoare, cu un potențial extraordinar. Dacã ne gândim la PIB-ul crescãtor și la volumul de piațã care s-a îmbunãtãțit, România este una dintre piețele cheie din regiune și un element important în strategia noastrã de dezvoltare. Obiectivul nostru în România este sa ne extindem rețeaua hotelierã și sã devenim lideri de piațã în urmãtorii ani.” “Am ales ibis Styles, un bine cunoscut brand hotelier internațional, astfel încât sã putem beneficia de canalele de rezervãri, vânzãri și marketing, de programele de loialitate și de tot sprijinul oferit de AccorHotels și Orbis. Suntem încrezãtori ca va fi o colaborare valoroasã pentru ambele pãrți.”– a declarat dl. Flavius Balaj, proprietarul FAB Industry, companie ce deține hotelul, parte a grupului Mr. FAB. Cu o experiențã de peste 20 de ani, Mr. FAB activeazã în domeniul construcțiilor industriale.\r\n\r\nMercure Brașov Hotel & SPA este cel de-al doilea hotel Mercure ce se va deschide în România și primul din afara Bucureștiului. Brașov, cel mai mare oraș din Transilvania și unul dintre cele mai frumoase orașe din România, comparat adesea cu faimoase orașe medievale din Europa, este un spațiu care continuã sã se dezvolte de la an la an. De aceea numãrul de turiști a crescut în fiecare an, în 2014 acesta ajungând la 1.000.000 de vizitatori. Situat la marginea orașului, aproape de DN1, noul Hotel Mercure va oferi clienților sãi un mediu relaxant și lipsit de stres, datorat panoramei cãtre munții Tâmpa, Bunloc și Piatra Mare. El va dispune de un restaurant cu terasã, douã baruri, patru sãli de conferințã și un centru de afaceri. Pentru divertisment și relaxare, noul Mercure va oferi oaspeților sãi o zonã de wellness (saunã, hammam etc), SPA, centru de fitness și piscinã. Viitoarea deschidere este rezultatul unui parteneriat de tip francizã, încheiat cu Barbati Invest Real Estate SRL. Angelo Barbato, proprietarul Barbati, activeazã pe piața din Brașov de peste zece ani, fiind implicat în investiții majore de succes. Prin semnarea acordului de francizã pentru construirea hotelului Mercure cu Orbis Hotel Group, partener strategic în regiune al AccorHotels, operatorul hotelier mondial de top, investitorul dorește sã continue dezvoltarea pe piața din Brașov. “România este o țarã stabilã, și atât astãzi, cât și pe termen lung, meritã sã investești aici.” Angelo Barbato a ales sã investeascã în Brașov deoarece este un oraș situat în centrul țãrii, care va deveni un nod rutier important, în care în curând se va construi și un aeroport. “Îmi imaginez un loc pentru distracție, recreere și relaxare, în care oaspeții sunt tratați ca membri ai familiei, serviciile oferite fiind la cele mai înalte standarde. Și atunci când vorbim despre servicii, trebuie sã menționãm, pe lângã atmosfera pe care noi o vom crea cu succes, și rãsfãțarea clienților cu tot ceea ce își doresc” – comenteazã Angelo Barbato. \r\n\r\nKOLLER a vândut 10 hoteluri K+K\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\n\r\nLuxten Lighting Company a înghițit 25% din acțiunile pe care Le Manoir Gastronomie (controlată de către soții Cristian și Maria Preotu) le deținea la hotelul Lux Garden din Azuga. Astfel el a devenit proprietar într-o proporție de aproape 100% al acestui complex. Tranzacția s-a făcut ”în familie”, o datorie de 6,39 milioane lei fiind convertită în acțiuni printr-o majorare de capital. Le Manoir Gastronomie, fondată în 2009 s-a ocupat de dezvoltarea business-ului hotelului de 5 stele Lux Garden. Complexul de la Azuga a fost inaugurat în 2008, pe un teren cu o suprafață de 6.000 de metri pătrați și este amplasat la baza pârtiei Sorica. El deține 50 de camere și dispune de un restaurant cu 100 de locuri, două săli de conferințe, piscină, jacuzzi, precum și un centru de fitness si masaj. Investiția totală estimată la acea dată de către specialiștii în turism a fost de circa 6-7 milioane de euro.\r\n\r\nConform declarațiilor managementului Luxten a achiziționat încă un teren în aceeași stațiune montană unde va construi o nouă facilitate turistică. \r\nANGELA SIMION, ALEX BARBU & ION BADEA

Compania smart flying Blue Air a fost auditată de curând IOSA și a devenit membru IATA. IOSA este programul internațional de evaluare creat să analizeze managementul operațional și procedurile de control al unei companii aeriene. Pe parcursul auditului, care a implicat controlul a peste 900 de standarde și bune practici recomandate, au fost analizate departamentele: zbor, control operațional și dispeceratul de zbor, departamentul de inginerie și întretinere, operațiunile la bordul aeronavelor executate de însoțitorii de bord, operațiunile la sol, departamentul cargo și securitate a precizat Regional Vice President Europe, Rafael Schvartzman.\n\n
În urma obținerii certificării IOSA Blue Air a devenit, de la începutul lui 2016, membru cu drepturi depline al IATA (International Air Transport Association). IATA reprezintă cea mai prestigioasă asociație, ea reunind 260 de companii aeriene din peste 119 țări. „Aderarea la IATA constituie un pas important în istoria companiei, deschizând ușa parteneriatelor cu alți operatori, ceea ce ne va permite să oferim servicii la prețuri cât mai atractive” - ne-a declarat Gheorghe Răcaru, Director General Blue Air.
\nTransportatorul român a mai anunțat la sfârșitul lui 2015 înregistrarea pasagerului cu numărul 2 000 000.
\nCEA MAI PUNCTUALĂ companie din lume\n
\n
CNAB a crescut cu 11,6%\n\n
Administrația Companiei Naționale Aeroporturi București (CNAB), care reunește Aeroporturile internaționale Henri Coandă și Aurel Vlaicu - Băneasa au înregistrat în 2015, un număr record de 9,28 milioane pasageri, în creștere cu 11,6% față de anul precedent. Pe pistele celor două porți aeriene au fost consemnate în același interval 108.566 de mișcări aeronave, în creștere cu 6,4% față de anul precedent. În prezent, pe Aeroportul Otopeni operează 31 de companii aeriene, care transportă pasageri către 70 de destinații. Cel mai dinamic aeroport internațional din România a fost anul trecut ”Mihail Kogalniceanu” din Constanța, unde s-a înregistrat o creștere de 107%, ajungându-se la peste 78.500 de pasageri comerciali. De pe acest aeroport sunt operate curse în regim regulat către Milano, Londra și Istanbul - a precizat directorul aeroportului, Bogdan Artagea.
\nJOIN vine la ARAD
\nBernard Jacobs, președintele companiei Join Airlines, a anunțat că transportatorul olandez va intra pe piața românească cu patru curse operate de la Arad. Trei dintre acestea vor acoperi rute internaționale - spre Stuttgart, Verona și un alt oraș ce urmează a fi stabilit. Rutele interne - București și, probabil Suceava și Tulcea, vor fi acoperite cu alte trei aeronave proprii. ”Join Airlines nu este o companie low-cost, dar prețul biletelor pentru rutele din Arad vor fi atractive” - a mai precizat Jacobs. Aeroportul Internațional Arad nu mai are curse aeriene de pasageri din primavara anului trecut, cand Wizz Air s-a retras. Și operatorul DHL cargo a abandonat acest aeroport pe care mai sunt efectuate doar zboruri de tip charter și ale unei școli de aviație.

\nGura Humorului în TOP JATA\n\n
Japanese Association of Travel Agents (JATA) și-a propus să realizeze un clasament cu cele mai frumoase 30 de orașe mici, mai puțin cunoscute, din Europa. Pentru aceasta organizația a apelat atât la opiniile agențiilor de turism nipone cât și ale călătorilor japonezi care frecventează acest continent. În urma voturilor orașul Gura Humorului din nordul României a intrat pe lista scurtă de aprecieri. Gura Humorului - oraș cu 17.000 de locuitori atestat din 1415 -, este situat la confluența râurilor Humor cu Moldova. El e renumit pentru clădirile sale cu o cromatică atractivă - potrivit prezentării realizate de agenții de turism niponi. Alături de destinația românească se află și alte mici orașe pe care JATA (asociație fondată în 1969), dorește să le promoveze în rândul turiștilor săi: Berat, din Albania, Civita di Bagnoregio, din Italia, Lech, din Austria, Hindeloopen, din Olanda, Lefkara, din Cipru, Rovinj, din Croația, Piran, din Slovenia, Marianske-Lazne, din Republica Ceha, Quedlinburg, din Germania, Golyazi, din Turcia, Sopron, din Ungaria etc.

Ulterior a fost fondată o Școală privată de învățământ turistic THR-CC, de către regretatul Marian Bugan. Ea funcționează și azi într-o altă formulă. Partea de perfecționare continuă a cam dispărut din peisaj. Mai este susținută doar de Concursurile anuale de specialitate. Maître d’Hotel, este una dintre profesii. Despre actualitatea ei în convorbirea cu Niculae Pupăză, președintele Asociației Naționale a Maître d’Hotel din Turism (ANMH).\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n- În plină ascensiune a tehnologiilor moderne, în care putem să ne comandăm meniul pe o tableta, ce loc mai ocupă Maître d’Hotel ?\r\n\r\n- Profesia este mai prezentă și actuală decât oricând. În lumea secolului 21, dată pe repede înainte, în care timpul costă foarte mulți bani, oamenii optează în special pentru dejunuri, pentru restaurante tip-fast food, cu meniuri rapide. Cu toate acestea lanțurile hoteliere românești ori străine, dețin în fiecare unitate cel puțin un restaurant clasic. Aici nu te poți face că faci meserie și ai nevoie de cel puțin un Maître D, șeful de sală, care azi e mai mult decât atât. Șeful de sală este un profesionist care dirijează toate componentele servirii: de la bucătărie, armonizarea vinurilor, recomandările, până la, lucru extrem de important, adresarea mulțumirii finale și invitarea consumatorului de a reveni la acel restaurant. Toate acestea deoarece clientul vine la restaurant pentru a socializa și a i se da importanța cuvenită. Aspectele amintite nu pot fi rezolvate prin tehnologii, pot fi doar completate. Atlfel spus, ați dat vreodată tips unei tablete ? Ca urmare, latura umană, zâmbetul profesional, vor fi cultivate în orice restaurant care se respectă, chiar dacă așa exotic, vor apărea în serviciu și roboți.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n- Ce câştigă meseria de Maître d’Hotel prin organizarea acestor Concursuri ?\r\n\r\n- Concursurile noastre - iată am ajuns la a 13-a ediție a Trofeului Marian Bugan, respectiv la a 19-a ediție a competiției profesionale -, își propun să remedieze o percepție defectuoasă. Ne aflăm în fața unei greșeli, care persistă. E bine că s-a investit foarte mult în lux, în dotări, în mobilier. Dar e regretabil că nu s-a făcut și în oameni, în pregătirea profesională din turism. Clientul percepe acest lucru și nu mai revine unde nu s-a simțit confortabil. E nevoie de o recalibrare profesională. Noi oferim la aceste concursuri o pregătire practică dar și una teoretică. Marele câștig îl reprezintă faptul că tinerii care participă la fiecare ediție au șansa să se antreneze cu specialiști, în parte autorii cărților după care învață. E un mare avantaj. Concursurile au două probe - una teoretică, respectiv una practică unde e urmărită perfecționarea tehnicii serviciilor în restaurant. De aceea am ales servirea la gheridon, poate cel mai frumos și complex proces într-un restaurant clasic. Toată lumea are de câștigat inclusiv organizatorii și membrii juriului, care sunt din ce în ce mai exigenți dar și mai bine pregătiți. Un alt câștig îl reprezintă creșterea interesului față de profesie. Sperăm ca același trend să se înregistreze în rândul patronilor de restaurante.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n- Profesional vorbind, urmărind concursurile anuale, cum vi se par participanții din ultimii ani? \r\n\r\n- Un plus profesional este faptul că toți sunt vorbitori de limbi străine. Când ne-am format noi nu era o condiție decât pentru cei care activau la restaurante cu clienți străini. Erau alte vremuri. Mulți concurenți stăpânesc chiar două limbi străine, au lucrat afară sau în țară, și au acces astfel la numeroase informații profesionale apărute pe mapamond. Sunt foarte îndemânatici la folosirea tehnologiilor moderne. Din păcate, nu este însă un regret, suntem ultimii care au beneficiat de cunoștințe practice de la o generație compusă din practicieni și profesioniști desăvârșiți, foarte bine pregătiți, competitivi. Un alt avantaj este că tinerii concurenți, sunt frumoși, eleganți și fac parte din generații conștiențe de misiunea lor. Așa se vede dinăuntru. \r\n\r\n- Distincţiile şi trofeele câştigate de competitori, se bucură de apreciere și de recunoaştere în carieră ?\r\n\r\n- Din păcate concurenții noștri sunt individuali și nu instituționali. Un singur lanț hotelier Continental -, face excepție de la această stare de fapt. De la an la an se transmite interesul participanților, unii dintre ei se perfecționează și revin pentru că doresc să câștige premiile superioare sau chiar Marele Trofeu. Revin. El reamintește de Marian Bugan, profesorul, profesionistul, autorul de cărți. În cei aproape 15 ani de când organizăm concursul au trecut prin fața juriului circa 450 de competitori proveniți din toate zonele țării. O parte dintre ei au devenit membrii ai juriului. Alții au reprezentat România la concursuri internaționale în Italia, Canada, Grecia, Franța. Una dintre distincțiile câștigate a fost locul 2 pe echipe, la concursul Maître D de la Bremen, din 2003.\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU

Ăștia suntem! De fiecare când un rege, un prinț, o vedetă a cinematografiei ori un producător TV ne laudă pentru frumusețile naturale trăim așa, un extraz care seamănă mai degrabă cu o căciuleală. În fața stării de fapt rămânem cu gura căscată de mirare. Ce bine le zic acești oameni, să vede că sunt mai instruiți, mai inteligenți decât noi, mai clarvăzători. Se întâmplă de câteva decenii și în turismul românesc. Dintr-o țară nici prea mare, nici atât de mică, nici cea mai fantastică, dar nici de ocolit. Ce mai, ne place să ne căciulim, când cineva ne spune că avem un suflet mare și atracții frumoase, ca și când omul care o afirmă, îmbrăcat cu haine adecvate de comunicare de către o firmă de PR și Imagine, ar fi descoperit America. N-o să coborâm acuma scările istoriei până în Evul Mediu, dar am putea reinterpreta comportamentul vasalului față de senior, stăpân ori rege. Secole la rând românilor le-a cam plăcut să li se spună ce și cum să facă. Ține de mentalitate, inferioritate și manipulare. Le place și azi!
În turism un site aruncă pe piață, așa din întâmplare, oare?, că nu știu ce pădure bântuită din Transilvania ori ce cascadă urlătoare sunt cele mai grozave din lume. Drept urmare cădem în fund de extraz. Rămânem așa o vreme, până suntem treziți de altă descoperire senzațională. Românii au Delta Dunării, un Paradis mondial care merită vizitat, castele medievale care merită filmate cu tot cu urmașii lui Dracula etc. Și iar cădem pe spate. Și ce e rău în asta, o să întrebați? Mai nimic, numai că mentalitatea asta de închinare în fața jupânului, de servitor care se mulțumește cu câțiva bani aruncați pe jos, este jenantă și lipsită de conținut. Pe vremuri vasalul, subordonat seniorului, primea pentru serviciile sale sub jurământ, drept recompensă pământ, adică o feudă. Azi, în promovarea imaginii turistice a României, lucrurile stau oarecum pe dos. Vasalul îl plătește pe stăpân, adică firme de promovare și publicitate internaționale, cu bani grei, pentru a-l scoate din anonimat, eventual ca destinație turistică.
\r\nAlo trezirea! Nimeni nu cade pe spate după atracțiile României. Totul se plătește. Că unii reușesc cu talent să estompeze acest lucru, e demn de aplaudat. Promovarea, mireasa aceea pe cal alb, vine la întâlnire, dacă este plătită. Așa e scris scenariul. Cum nu știați? Totul se plătește, iar promovarea turistică se face în fiecare zi. Deci trebuie plătită permanent. Atunci când nu mai e carburant (buget de promovare), mașina de fabricat imagini și echipele producătoare trag pe dreapta.

\r\n\r\n2021: Cine va fi Capitală Culturală Europeană?\r\n![\"Ev](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Ev-Cap-Europene-1.jpg\")
\r\nDin cele 14 orașe care și-au depus candidatura pentru titlul de ”Capitală Europeană a Culturii 2021” au rămas în cursă doar 4. Inițial Ministerul Culturii a primit spre analiză dosarele candidaților: Alba Iulia, Arad, Bacău, Baia Mare, Brașov, Brăila, București, Cluj-Napoca, Craiova, Iași, Sfântu Gheorghe, Suceava, Timișoara și Târgu-Mureș.
\r\nLa sfârșitul anului trecut un juriu format din 12 experți internaționali a făcut selecția pe baza mai multor criterii valabile internațional și i-a anunțat pe cei rămași în cursă: Timişoara, Baia Mare, Cluj-Napoca, Bucureşti! ”Cele 4 orașe au fost alese în ordine aleatorie. Pur şi simplu aleatorie. Toate Capitalele Europene ale Culturii şi oraşele care sunt pe lista scurtă atrag atenţie internaţională. Nu doar pentru activitatea lor culturală, dar şi pentru tot ceea ce înseamnă decizii şi politici” - a anunțat Steve Green, președintele juriului. În vara acestui an vom afla orașul câștigător din România pentru acest titlul. El va fi premiat de Comisia Europeană cu 1,5 milioane de euro. De asemenea, Guvernul va contribui cu cel puțin 10 milioane de euro iar alte bugete pentru proiectele de infrastructură vor fi susținute de autoritățile locale.\r\n\r\nProgramul \"Capitală culturală europeană\" a fost inițiat de Consiliul de Miniștri ai Culturii din UE în 1985, cu scopul de a apropia popoarele Europei și de a celebra contribuția orașelor la dezvoltarea culturii. Până în prezent, peste 40 de localități au deținut acest titlu. Singurul oraș românesc nominalizat este Sibiul care în 2007 a figurat în calendarul anual alături de Luxemburg.\r\nMARA ANTON

\r\nMuzeul Naţional Cotroceni are deschisă până pe 29 mai 2016 expoziţia \"Eleganţă şi tradiţie în moda feminină. De la Belle Époque la interbelic\". Manifestarea valorifică patrimoniul Muzeului Naţional Cotroceni şi două colecţii particulare oferite de Iulia Gorneanu şi Oana Creţu. Obiectele sunt reprezentative pentru evoluţia modei feminine de la sfârşitul sec. al XIX-lea şi începutul sec. XX, perioadă cunoscută sub numele de „belle époque“ şi până în perioada interbelică. Graţie reginelor României, Elisabeta şi Maria, tradiţiile naţionale au continuat să dăinuie până astăzi. Bogata colecţie de costume populare ale Reginei Maria reflectă, printre altele, și rafinamentul asocierii cu bijuterii şi paftale de inspiraţie orientală. Traveller Magazin este unul dintre Partenerii Media ai manifestării. \r\n\r\nAGERPRES A LANSAT „ROMANIA COLORATĂ” \r\n\r\nAgenţia Naţională de Presă AGERPRES a lansat în luna februarie proiectul editorial „România Colorată”. El își propune să prezinte cititorilor săi o Românie expresivă, bogată în imagini, să promoveze diversitatea expresiilor culturale, povești și performanțe ale unor nume mai puțin celebre, curiozități, întâmplări inedite. De la primul manual de patrimoniu cultural local pentru liceeni din Sălaj la sărbătoarea tăițeilor ce are loc anual la Reșița, România Colorată va promova materiale sugestive și pline de viață. Acestea pot fi urmărite pe site-ul public www.agerpres.ro, accesând linkul secțiunii speciale: http://www.agerpres.ro/romania-colorata, precum și pe rețelele de socializare, Facebook și Twitter, căutând #RomaniaColorata.

Mai remarcăm prezența lanțului Bacolux, cu rădăcini financiare doljene, a Complexului ”Portul Cultural Cetate”, în prim plan cu poetul-gastronom Mircea Dinescu, a pensiunii ”Carul din Stele”, a agenției Primelife America Tourism, iar pe partea de agrement și aventură standurile cu echipamente de transport urban individual - E-Twow Electric Mobility; Mecanic Moustache, cu o colecție de motociclete recondiționate și reechipate; a echipei de tineri de la Zig Zag prin România, care și-au propus să afle poveștile de succes ale României moderne; Podul îndrăgostiților de la intrare, un clu de marketing care merita mai bine publicitat. Pe segmentul de conferințe cel mai apreciat eveniment a fost susținut de revista noastră, Partener media al TTO, care a prezentat ultimele două cărți de turism ale scriitorului și editorului de turism Marian Constantinescu.\r\n\r\nDespre lumea fascinantă a poveștilor de succes, parcă venită de pe altă planetă au vorbit în calitate de invitați ori parteneri - Florin Bazavan, unul dintre proprietarii lanțului hotelier Bacolux, Eduard Stanov, sales & marketing manager al noului hotel Ramada din Craiova, respectiv Răzvan Adam, editorul revistei de Tour.Ist.\r\n\r\nConform organizatorilor, amintim că o parte din câștigurile Târgului vor fi donate pentru utilarea maternității Spitalului Clinic Județean de Urgență Craiova.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n______________________________________________________\r\nTTF BRAȘOV - Super-noutăți sub un singur acoperiș
\r\nConsumatorii de vacanțe s-au obișnuit să vină la începutul primăverii la Brașov Business Park unde, între 11 și 13 martie, s-a consumat cea de-a IX-a Transylvania Tourism Fair (TTF).
\r\nManifestarea a atras circa 50 de firme. Noutăți? În prim plan la Brașov a apărut touroperatorul Christian Tour, care a revitalizat și aici ritmul de contacte, contracte și vânzări. Directorul de marketing Marius Berca a anunțat la conferința de presă lansarea noului concept Memento Bus.\r\n\r\nEl a mai declarat că operatorul român își va completa flota cu 10 autocare noi, marca Neoplan. Așa se explică și dinamismul pe care l-au adoptat în business agenții prezente, printre care TUI Center, Paralela 45, Star Tours etc. Dertour România și Amadeus au fost sponsorii de marcă ai evenimentului. La fel de dinamică s-a dovedit și participarea unor complexe de cazare: În premieră a apărut lanțul Transilvania Hotel & Travel, controlat de SIF Transilvania cu unități de vacanță sau balneare ce funcționează la Brașov, Predeal, Tușnad, Ploiești, Băile Felix sau pe Litoral.\r\n\r\nMaria Dan, manager regional, ne-a precizat că este vorba e o nouă construcție ce are în centru ca investitor - pilon societatea Feper SA. Compania, deținută de tot de SIF Transilvania dezvoltă un Centru de afaceri în turism. La fel de interesante ni s-au părut prezentările de extindere a conceptului All Inclusive pe litoral unde noutățile din grupul THR Marea Neagră, sunt hotelul Cleopatra din Saturn, iar din 2017 Lidia din Venus - a precizat directorul Narcisa Moșoiu. La Covasna va reintra in circuitul turistic hotelul Căprioara, complet refăcut.\r\n\r\nDe la sfârșitul anului trecut tot aici funcționează Mercur Spa & Wellness, proprietate a unor investitori din București, cel mai nou de 4 stele, din zona balneară. Același grup de afaceri mai deține complexul Mercur din Galați și Pensiunea Casa Matei din Buzău - ne-a precizat managerul Gheorghe Onea.
\r\nInformațiile le-am aflat în timpul seminarelor desfășurate la Ziua Specialistului de la TTF Brașov. Organizatorul Kron-Tour Expo, companie condusă de Sorin Dencescu, a rămas în continuare fidel conceptelor B2B, care individualizează foarte bine manifestarea. Remarcat a fost standul fundației Mihai Eminescu Trust, în care au avut loc demonstrații de țesut și împletituri din crengi de salcie și răchită, tradiții care au renăscut la Mălâncrav. La fel de atractiv a fost standul complexului tematic Dino Park din Râșnov. De la deschiderea din vara anului trecut până acum el a fost căutat de peste 300.000 de turiști. Pe lista recomandărilor noastre au intrat complexul de conferințe Belvedere; Hanul Domnesc, inclusiv pentru oferta gastronomică și restaurantele Roata Norocului din Brașov, respectiv Subcetate din Râșnov, oaze ale ospitalității și bunului gust. Traveller Magazin a fost unul dintre principalii Parteneri Media al acestei ediții.

\r\nGOLDEN TULIP din Mamaia devine ZENITH
\r\nDin luna ianuarie în stațiunea Mamaia brandul Golden Tulip a fost înlocuit de o altă afiliere: la lanțul hotelier german Top International Hotels care astfel a intrat pe piața românească. De acum încolo vom frecventa, în vacanțele noastre ori la întâlnirile de business complexul Zenith-Top Country Line-Conference&Spa Hotel. Unitatea va funcționa tot la o clasificare de 4 stele, ce se recomandă cu 230 de camere, două restaurante, un centru de conferințe și o piscină în aer liber.\r\n\r\nTop International deține două platforme specializate de distribuție pentru facilități de conferințe - „Conference Finder” - și pentru facilități de spa - „Spa Finder”.

\r\nScenarii de Star Trek în vînzările de hoteluri. Câteva complexe din întreaga țară, printre care NH și Parliament din București, dar și complexul Amfiteatru, Panoramic, Belvedere din Olimp se află scoase la vânzare de circa 7-10 ani pe mai multe portaluri imobiliare. Ele n-au fost vândute nici până acum motiv pentru care proprietarii au scăzut prețurile chiar și sub jumătate. Spre exemplu, hotelul NH din București (78 de camere, 8 etaje) era scos la vânzare în 2007 cu 18 milioane de euro. Dupa 3 ani prețul scăzuse cu 2 milioane iar ceva mai târziu ajunsese la 13 milioane. În acest an prețul cerut a atins 8,5 milioane de euro. Hotelul Parliament, tot din București (clasificat la 4 stele, 76 de camere, 9 etaje) este oferit la 8,5 milioane de euro. În urma cu 5 ani, proprietarii cereau 11 milioane. \r\n\r\nDar cea mai ”tare” afacere a făcut-o Josef Goschy când a cumpărat Complexul Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere din Olimp.

Călători români contemporani au numărat cam 500 de instituții financiare dar statistici mai realiste vorbesc de circa 280. În urmă cu cinci ani insulele găzduiau reprezentanțele a 40 dintre cele 50 cele mai puternice bănci ale lumii. În depozitele acestora se află circa 1,5 trilioane de dolari și sunt rulate peste 35 de miliarde de dolari. Aceste valori au consacrat Grand Cayman drept al cincilea centru bancar din lume și al doilea mare depozit privat de economii pe plan mondial. Despre asta vorbim și azi.\r\n

\r\nCălătorii veritabili au fost și au rămas îndrăgostiți însă de paradisul natural încărcat cu simboluri istorice și culturale. Unele dintre ele au dat și numele de botez sucesive ale insulelor. Cel mai ușor pentru noi europenii pentru a atinge aceste locuri este să-ți cumperi o croazieră. Cu ajutorul hotelului plutitor poți acosta la Grand Cayman. Ai ocazia de a pleca în tradiționalul tur al insulelor și sunt peste 15 opționale care te vor satisface cu vârf și îndesat. Dorești o vacanță de una sau două săptămâni într-un resort de vis. Nicio problemă, următoarea navă de croazieră te va ”recolta” pe ruta ei de reîntoarcere acasă. Grand Cayman ca și Caraibele sunt porturi unde trag aproape toate marile companii de croaziere. Turismul bate la ușa naturii în fiecare dimineață și, se înțelege, că industria este foarte bine antrenată pentru a face bani.\r\n![\"OLYMPUS](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Grand-Caiman3.jpg\")

\r\n\r\nLesne de înțeles de ce el le-a botezat Las Tortugas. 82 de ani mai târziu Sir Francis Drake, cunoscut explorator britanic, observa navigând pe lângă insule ”șopârle mari, asemănătoare unor șerpi” în fapt caimani, specii înrudite cu crocodilii. \r\n\r\n![\"OLYMPUS](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Grand-caiman04.jpg\")
\r\n\r\nDe la Drake ne-a rămas denumirea Insulelor Cayman, dată în secolul XVI, timpuri când încă nu erau populate cu oameni. Exploratori englezi, olandezi, francezi și spanioli, dar și pirați (în amintirea lor se organizează anual ”Săptămâna Piraților”), cu toții au profitat de proviziile oferite de insulă. Și au transformat-o într-un nod de aprovizionare. Rezervele interioare de apă au fost și au rămas potabile. Caimanii au dispărut în întregime. Iar acest lucru s-ar fi întâmplat și cu broaștele țestoane care au fost exploatate și valorificate de industrial pentru carnea gustoasă și carapace, mai ales de către britanici, imperiu care deține insulele din 1670. \r\nAlarmate de o asemenea proiecție numeroase organizații și fundații s-au luptat să schimbe optica de gândire și s-o direcționeze spre o dezvoltare sustenabilă. Ea se sprijină azi pe turism și finanțe. Dacă din această ecuație ar fi dispărut recifurile de corali, broaștele de un auriu strălucitor, numeroase plante colecționate azi, circa 300 de specii, în Grădina botanică (în fapt o rezervație lungă de o milă), turismul ar fi avut enorm de suferit. Și localnicii în același timp. Pe insulele cu o suprafață totală de 100 de kilometri pătrați trăiesc circa 45.000 de locuitori. O mare parte din ei - europeni și africani -, își asigură veniturile din prestațiile turistice. Marile pelerinaje în natură sunt asigurate de turismul subacvatic spre care se îndreaptă anual sute de mii de turiști ce frecventează recifurile de corali, epavele navelor scufundate și coloniile de pești exotici. Cea mai căutată este Ferma de broaște țestoase, un mini-institut de cercetări. Ghidul dar și cercetătorii îți relatează episoade din lupta dusă pentru salvarea și repopularea apele oceanului cu aceste specii care n-au scăpat încă de amenințătoarea dispariție. Anual ajung la maturitate și sunt redate sălbăticiei sute de exemplare de broaște țestoase și această muncă este apreciată la justă valoare de către vizitatori. O fotografie cu un pui de ”Las Tortugas” e o decizie inspirată. Ca și o mică donație pentru susținerea proiectelor de cercetare. Așa se recomandă, dacă tot o să te lauzi acasă că ai fost și tu pe unde a încălecat mutu testoasele și a navigat Columb.

Nicio problemă, următoarea navă de croazieră te va ”recolta” pe ruta ei de reîntoarcere acasă. Grand Cayman ca și Caraibele sunt porturi unde trag aproape toate marile companii de croaziere. Turismul bate la ușa naturii în fiecare dimineață și, se înțelege, că industria este foarte bine antrenată pentru a face bani.
\r\nNu există loc unde ghidul să nu te toace mărunt cu Cristofor Columb care prin 1503 s-a rătăcit puțin fiind deviat spre Vest. Acolo a descoperit insulele Cayman care au atras atenția prin coloniile de țestoase de dimensiuni destul de mari.\r\n\r\nLesne de înțeles de ce el le-a botezat Las Tortugas. 82 de ani mai târziu Sir Francis Drake, cunoscut explorator britanic, observa navigând pe lângă insule ”șopârle mari, asemănătoare unor șerpi” în fapt caimani, specii înrudite cu crocodilii. \r\n\r\nDe la Drake ne-a rămas denumirea Insulelor Cayman, dată în secolul XVI, timpuri când încă nu erau populate cu oameni. Exploratori englezi, olandezi, francezi și spanioli, dar și pirați (în amintirea lor se organizează anual ”Săptămâna Piraților”), cu toții au profitat de proviziile oferite de insulă. Și au transformat-o într-un nod de aprovizionare. Rezervele interioare de apă au fost și au rămas potabile. Caimanii au dispărut în întregime. Iar acest lucru s-ar fi întâmplat și cu broaștele țestoane care au fost exploatate și valorificate de industrial pentru carnea gustoasă și carapace, mai ales de către britanici, imperiu care deține insulele din 1670. \r\nAlarmate de o asemenea proiecție numeroase organizații și fundații s-au luptat să schimbe optica de gândire și s-o direcționeze spre o dezvoltare sustenabilă. Ea se sprijină azi pe turism și finanțe. Dacă din această ecuație ar fi dispărut recifurile de corali, broaștele de un auriu strălucitor, numeroase plante colecționate azi, circa 300 de specii, în Grădina botanică (în fapt o rezervație lungă de o milă), turismul ar fi avut enorm de suferit. Și localnicii în același timp. Pe insulele cu o suprafață totală de 100 de kilometri pătrați trăiesc circa 45.000 de locuitori. O mare parte din ei - europeni și africani -, își asigură veniturile din prestațiile turistice. Marile pelerinaje în natură sunt asigurate de turismul subacvatic spre care se îndreaptă anual sute de mii de turiști ce frecventează recifurile de corali, epavele navelor scufundate și coloniile de pești exotici. Cea mai căutată este Ferma de broaște țestoase, un mini-institut de cercetări. Ghidul dar și cercetătorii îți relatează episoade din lupta dusă pentru salvarea și repopularea apele oceanului cu aceste specii care n-au scăpat încă de amenințătoarea dispariție. Anual ajung la maturitate și sunt redate sălbăticiei sute de exemplare de broaște țestoase și această muncă este apreciată la justă valoare de către vizitatori. O fotografie cu un pui de ”Las Tortugas” e o decizie inspirată. Ca și o mică donație pentru susținerea proiectelor de cercetare. Așa se recomandă, dacă tot o să te lauzi acasă că ai fost și tu pe unde a încălecat mutu testoasele și a navigat Columb.

Sloganul care îl însoţeşte este “Bulgaria - A Discovery to Share” El va fi lansat oficial pe plan internaţional în septembrie 2013. Potrivit lui Ivo Marinov - liderul responsabil cu turismul în cadrul Ministerului bulgar al Economiei, Energiei şi Turismului -, noul brand a fost dezvoltat după o analiză a percepţiei şi ofertei actuale a Bulgariei ca destinaţie turistică dar şi atuuriile pe care le deţine comparativ cu destinaţii concurente.\r\n\r\nConceptul a beneficiat de finanţare europeană în cadrul Programului Operaţional de Dezvoltare Regională. Investiţia pe partea de branding s-a ridicat la 700.000 de euro. Creatorii brandului au luat în considerare rezultatele sondajelor efectuate în 11 ţări din Europa şi Asia. Conceputul vizual al brandului principal dar şi a altor 10 sub-branduri regionale au fost testate în 15 ţări, în rândul a peste 2.000 de reprezentanţi ai industriei turistice.\r\n\r\n“Bulgaria - A Discovery to Share” descrie ţara drept o destinaţie prietenoasă, fermecătoare şi încă nedescoperită. În afara brandului turistic naţional şi a sloganului, au fost create 10 sub-branduri ce fac parte din strategia de branding pentru zonele ţării. De asemenea a fost realizat şi un brand pilot pentru regiunea Trakia. Ministerul de profil estimează în primii 5 ani de implementare a strategiei de promovare, ca numărul vizitatorilor să crească cu 25%, iar în 10-15 ani numărul acestora să se dubleze. Promovarea noului brand se va concentra în principal pe atragerea turiştilor din patru ţări: România, Germania, Rusia şi Marea Britanie – a mai subliniat Ivo Marinov.
2013 – Care sunt Capitalele culturale europene !\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/kosice-2.jpg\" "\\"kosice")
\r\n
Marsilia şi Kosice au fost numite capitale culturale europene pentru acest an. Lansarea programelor a fost anunţată de către preşedintele Comisiei Europene, Jose Manuel Barroso. „Capitala europeană a culturii” este unul dintre cele mai cunoscute proiecte, pe care Uniunea Europeană l-a transformat în tradiţie cu o vechime de 25 de ani.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/kosice1.jpg\" "\\"kosice1\\"")
\r\n\r\nMarsilia şi întreaga regiune se află într-un amplu proces de dezvoltare şi reevaluare a atracţiilor lor. Numeroase restaurări arhitectonice, conversiuni sau proiecte pentru 60 de atracţii care au presupus o investiţie de peste 660 milioane de euro. Marsilia -Provence include în proiectul cultural 97 de comunităţi, de la metropola cunoscută în toată lumea până la sate de munte şi regiuni naturale de o frumuseţe unică. Agenda de manifestări include circa 400 de evenimente culturale, 80 de expoziţii, concerte, târguri etc. Ele vor fi găzduite, printre altele, de Muzeul civilizaţiei europene şi mediteraneene (MUCEM), Centrul Mediteranean Regional (CEREM), Panorama – Friche de la Belle de Mai, Fondul de Artă Contemporană (FRAC), toate din Marsilia, Conservatorul de muzică din Aix en Provence etc.\r\n\r\nKosice va fi promovat drept locul de întâlnire al vechilor drumuri către Orient şi Occident. Dintre atracţiile oraşului slovac amintim de Piaţa centrală, unde se vor desfăşura numeroase festivalul artistice; Catedrala Sf. Elisabeta unde sunt depuse, din 1906, osemintele lui Francisc Rakoczi al-II-lea, principe al Transilvaniei; Casa Rakoczi, devenită muzeu; Turnul oraşului care adăposteşte Muzeul Mineralogic; Palatul lui Iacob datând din secolul al XIX-lea, ce a servit temporar, în 1945, ca locuinţa preşedintelui Cehoslovaciei; Columna Ciumei, un monument cu o înălţime de 14 metri, ce aminteşte de epidemia devastatoare din 1710; Muzeul Slovaciei de Est, unde sunt expuse colecţii istorice, de artă tradiţională etc.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/marseille-2.jpg\" "\\"marseille")
\r\nNominalizarea la categoria de “Capitală europeană a culturii”, constituie o oportunitate majoră de a stimula revitalizarea pe termen lung a patrimoniilor din localităţile respective. Un alt avantaj îl constituie atragerea unui număr mare de turişti, care vor contribui la prosperitatea economică a localităţilor amintite. Un asemenea titlul generează în medie o creştere cu 12% a numărului de vizitatori care aleg destinaţia pentru cel puţin o noapte. Creşterea poate fi mult mai mare, aşa cum s-a întâmplat în 2008 la Liverpool iar în 2009 la Sibiu (circa 25%).\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/marseille-nuit6.jpg\" "\\"marseille")

\r\nChina şi Armenia – noi politici de vize\r\n\r\nDe la începutul anului turiştii, inclusiv români, care deţin vize ale unei ţări terţe şi bilete de avion vor beneficia, fără viză, de o şedere de 72 de ore la Beijing. Turiştii pot aplica pentru o vizită de tranzit fără viză chiar în aeroportul internaţional al acestui oraş. Măsura, decisă de autorităţile municipale de la Beijing, este valabila pentru 45 de ţări. Lista a fost elaborată ţinând cont de numărul de vizitatori înregistraţi în tranzit în Beijing între 2009 şi 2011. Potrivit unui oficial chinez vizitatorii trebuie să înregistreze vizele la orice secţie de poliţie, într-un termen de 24 de ore de la sosirea în ţară.\r\n\r\nŞi Armenia a anunţat eliminarea vizelor de scurtă şedere pentru cetăţenii din cele 27 de ţări ale Uniunii Europene, pentru a stimula dezvoltarea turismului. Cetăţenii din UE vor fi scutiţi de viză dacă şederea lor în Armenia nu va depăşi 180 de zile, a declarat Tigran Balaian, purtătorul de cuvânt al Ministerului armean al Afacerilor Externe. De asemenea, decizia este valabilă şi pentru 4 ţări din spaţiul Schengen care nu fac parte din UE - Islanda, Liechtenstein, Norvegia şi Elveţia.

\r\nORADEA: Curse charter de la Tel Aviv\r\n![\"Travel](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Travel-Mesek-Butnaru.jpg\")
\r\n
În acest an e posibil ca aproximativ 2000 de turiști israelieni să vină la Oradea și în stațiunea Băile Felix. Anunțul a fost făcut de către omul de afaceri Meidan Butnaru, care are rădăcini native în România. După ce în 2014 a deschis cu succes curse charter către Constanţa şi Bucureşti, el dezvoltă pentru 2016 un nou proiect de incoming pentru România: curse charter Tel Aviv – Oradea. Zborurile vor avea loc săptămânal, în perioada verii și vor fi operate cu compania Blue Air. Potrivit lui Butnaru, directorul comercial al touroperatorului israelian, Meshek Wings, „în acest an, vom genera pentru destinaţia Oradea circa 1.800.000 de euro, luând în calcul zborurile, hotelurile, serviciile la sol etc”. Turiştii israelieni vor fi cazaţi în staţiunea Băile Felix şi în municipiul Oradea. Pachetele turistice vor fi dedicate familiilor şi adulţilor, iar cazarea va avea loc în hoteluri de 4 şi 5 stele. Pe de altă parte, Meidan Butnaru va organiza, în acest sezon estival, trei zboruri săptămânale pe aeroportul Constanţa, pentru Mamaia, în perioada iunie-august. Pentru Bucureşti sunt estimaţi 25.000 de turişti israelieni pentru tot anul, fiind operate tot trei zboruri pe săptămână, dar într-un interval mai mare de timp.\r\n![\"Travel](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Travel-Mesek-Oradea2.jpg\")

Dacă în anul 2000 erau 7422 de locuri de cazare, în prezent sunt 19.784. De asemenea, în Bucureşti sunt prezente 16 branduri hoteliere internaţionale.
\r\nDin cele 400 de structuri de cazare 11 dintre hoteluri sunt clasificate la 5 stele, 77 sunt de 4 stele, 64 de 3 stele, 25 hoteluri de 2 și o stea. La ora actuală, de pe Aeroportul Internaţional Henri Coandă operează 32 de companii aeriene. Potrivit Institutului Naţional de Statistică, în 2014, Bucureştiul a primit 1.510.222 de turişti care au înregistrat 2497182 de înnoptări. Dintre aceştia, 645.718 au fost turişti români iar 864.504 străini. Cifra turiştilor a crescut de la an la an, în 2013 fiind înregistraţi 1.328.190 de turişti, iar în 2012, 1.245.425 de turişti. Ca să aveți o dimensiune comparativă, în 2001 Bucureştiul primea doar 471.126 de turişti. ”Circa 60% dintre aceștia au vizitat Capitala României în interes de afaceri și pentru evenimente (segmentul MICE) iar 20% reprezintă segmentul de city break. Acest segment înregistrează o dinamică vizibilă” - afirmă consultantul în turism Traian Bădulescu.
\r\nToți acești călători care ne vizitează au nevoie de un instrument de orientare foarte ușor de folosit pentru descoperi atracțiile Bucureștiului. De aceea împreună cu Dan Anghelescu și el expert în turism, și o echipă de profesioniști în turism, au pus la punct și inițiat proiectul BookingBucharest.ro, un ghid electronic adecvat acestei necesități. O parte dintre partenerii proiectului au realizat în ultimii 20 de ani ghiduri moderne ale Bucureştiului, iar o altă parte au experienţă de peste 20 de ani în turism. Anghelescu spune că ghidul umple un mare gol și în domeniul promovării Capitalei, ”un oraș recunoscut ca fiind foarte sigur, un loc unde se produc anual numeroase evenimente culturale, expoziționale și de business”.
\r\nBookingBucharest.ro - care este susținut și recomandat de către ANAT și Clubul Presei de Turism - FIJET ROMANIA -, oferă atât toate informaţiile necesare, cât şi oportunităţi de cazare, masă, excursii, divertisment foarte avantajoase ca preţ. De asemenea, site-ul oferă şi specialiştilor date utile, analize şi estimări. Site-ul este interactiv şi se dezvoltă zi de zi. Booking Bucharest oferă şi variante de tururi ale Bucureştiului şi ale împrejurimilor Capitalei.
\r\nPe lângă toate obiectivele turistice importante, ghidul recomandă restaurante şi baruri, săli de spectacole, teatre dar oferă şi un calendar de evenimente. În plus există şi o rubrică de sfaturi de călătorie, dedicată celor care se află prima dată în Bucureşti; o galerie foto de excepţie realizată de către fotografi profesioniști ori amatori; un format PDF, ce poate fi accesat gratuit în limba română sau engleză prin înscrierea la newsletter etc. Acesta poate fi tipărit în cea mai recentă versiune.

\r\nORADEA: Curse charter de la Tel Aviv
\r\nÎn acest an e posibil ca aproximativ 2000 de turiști israelieni să vină la Oradea și în stațiunea Băile Felix. Anunțul a fost făcut de către omul de afaceri Meidan Butnaru, care are rădăcini native în România. După ce în 2014 a deschis cu succes curse charter către Constanţa şi Bucureşti, el dezvoltă pentru 2016 un nou proiect de incoming pentru România: curse charter Tel Aviv – Oradea. Zborurile vor avea loc săptămânal, în perioada verii și vor fi operate cu compania Blue Air. Potrivit lui Butnaru, directorul comercial al touroperatorului israelian, Meshek Wings, „în acest an, vom genera pentru destinaţia Oradea circa 1.800.000 de euro, luând în calcul zborurile, hotelurile, serviciile la sol etc”. Turiştii israelieni vor fi cazaţi în staţiunea Băile Felix şi în municipiul Oradea. Pachetele turistice vor fi dedicate familiilor şi adulţilor, iar cazarea va avea loc în hoteluri de 4 şi 5 stele. Pe de altă parte, Meidan Butnaru va organiza, în acest sezon estival, trei zboruri săptămânale pe aeroportul Constanţa, pentru Mamaia, în perioada iunie-august. Pentru Bucureşti sunt estimaţi 25.000 de turişti israelieni pentru tot anul, fiind operate tot trei zboruri pe săptămână, dar într-un interval mai mare de timp.
\r\nPotrivit datelor Institutului Național de Statistică România a primit 219.000 de israelieni, din care 100.000 vin în interes de afaceri sau pentru cazinouri. Israelul ocupă locul doi, ca număr de turiști, după Germania (234.000 de turisti).
\r\nINTERNET - mare amor, pentru călător
\r\nConform unui studiu realizat de PayPal și GFK, 73% dintre români folosesc internetul în perioada în care sunt în concediu, în timp ce 48% dintre ei consideră că online-ul le oferă un ajutor important atunci când își planifică vacanțele. 70% dintre călătorii români intră pe internet pentru a căuta oferte de vacanță. Totodată, conexiunea Wi-Fi este cel mai important factor pentru 19% dintre români atunci când aleg locul de cazare.\r\n\r\nAcelași studiu relevă că pentru 38% dintre turiștii românii internetul are o importanță la fel de mare în planificarea vacanțelor iar 42% îl folosesc și pe parcursul călătoriei sau vacanței. În topul preferințelor cea mai atractivă vacanță pentru 31% dintre români este cea de relaxare, urmată de vacanțele cu beneficii pentru sănătate - 17%, respectiv concediile însorite - 12%. Românii preferă în principal cazarea la hotel - 40%, în apartamente închiriate - 23% și în locuințe ale prietenilor - 12% - relevă același studiu.\r\nALEX BARBU

\r\nImpresarii lui James Bond l-au plimbat pe acesta din Mexic, până în Germania și Austria. Cei care s-au folosit din plin de imaginea turistică a lui 007 în cel mai nou film - Spectre -, sunt însă austriecii. Cel de-al 24 film din această serie oferă suspans din plin, în decorul Alpilor din Otztal, Solden și în Obertilliach, un sat pitoresc din Tiroul de Est. Șoseaua situată la cea mai mare altitudine din Alpi iar în vârf restaurantul iceQ în formă de cub de gheață au fost spațiile principale de filmare în care s-au desfășurat scenele de acțiune din Alpi ale inapuizabilului Daniel Craig - a subliniat Christina Ruhfass, directorul de marketing al regiunii Tirol.
\r\nEgiptenii la rândul lor mizează pe contribuția celebrului artist Morgan Freeman care lucrează în noua peliculă ”The Story of God”. O parte din scenariu este filmat în centrul istoric al orașului Cairo. Programul starului hollywoodian a inclus însă, mai multe vizite la atracții culturale din Egipt pe care le-a vizitat împreună cu ministrul egiptean al turismului, domnul Hisham Zaazou.
\r\n \r\nȘi industria publicitară turistică a vecinilor de la Dunăre a ”invitat” trei staruri de pe platourile americane. Sylvester Stallone, Antonio Banderas și Salma Hayek promoveaza Bulgaria, într-un clip dat publicității de către Ministerul Turismului. Actorii au apreciat diversitatea peisajelor din Bulgaria, ideală pentru producătorii de filme aflați în permanentă căutare de locații spectaculoase și accesibile ca preț. Lor li s-au alăturat și starurile Adrien Brody respectiv Jason Statham.
\r\nClipul a fost proiectat în premieră la Los Angeles, în deschiderea filmului Judecata, propunerea Bulgariei la Oscarul pentru cel mai bun film într-o limbă străină. „După filmele cu Harry Potter, în Anglia turismul a crescut cu 50%. Game of Thrones, filmat în Croația, a crescut popularitatea acestei țări ca destinație de vacanță.\r\n![\"Actor](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Actor-Morgan-Freeman-în-Egipt-6.jpg\")

O tranzacție în valoare de 3 miliarde de dolari americani va fi finalizată la jumătatea acestui an. Grupul francez Accor a convenit preluarea companiei canadiene FRHI Holdings, proprietarul brandurilor hoteliere Fairmont, Raffles și Swissotel. El devine astfel cel mai cel mai vizibil operator global pe segmentul hotelurilor de lux. Tranzacția în numerar și acțiuni constituie a treia mare achiziție de hoteluri ce s-a derulat în 2015, potrivit datelor companiei de consultanță Dealogic. Dar în același timp și cea mai mare achiziție din istoria Accor Hotels care va urca pe poziția a treia în topul celor mai mari grupuri hoteliere mondiale, după Marriott-Starwood și Intercontinental.
\r\nAccor deține aproximativ 500.000 de camere de hotel la nivel mondial și 10 branduri internaționale. Cu 42 de proprietăți în America de Nord, FRHI conferă Accor prezența pe piața Statelor Unite, de unde lipsea de la vânzarea brandului Motel 6. Proprietarii FRHI, Autoritatea pentru Investitii din Qatar și Kingdom Holding Company of Saudi Arabia, vor primi 840 milioane de dolari în numerar și 46,7 de milioane de acțiuni noi Accor. Potrivit acordului, Autoritatea pentru Investitii din Qatar-ul va deține 10,5% din Accor, iar Kingdom Holdings, companie a prințului saudit al-Waleed bin Talal, 5,8% din acțiunile Accor.\r\nAccor operează pe plan mondial în 92 de țări unde deține 3.600 de hoteluri cu 450.000 de camere. În prezent, doar 15% din hotelurile AccorHotels sunt în segmentul hotelurilor de lux - sub mărcile Sofitel, Pullman și MGallery, 38 sunt pe cel mediu iar 47% în segmentul economy.\r\n______________________________________________\r\n
\r\nFRANȚA - ”Paris va fi întotdeauna Paris”\r\n\r\n\r\nGuvernul francez, municipalitatea din Paris, în parteneriat cu mediul de afaceri și Agenția de promovare Atout France au lansat o campanie care își propune să sporească atractivitatea Parisului, poarta de intrare turistică a Franței. Această inițiativă are și rolul de a combate prin turism impactul tragicelor evenimente teroriste ce au avut loc anul trecut în Franța. Ele au avut nu numai un impact afectiv asupra populației ci s-a resimțit vizibil și asupra economiei aferente acestui sector. \r\n\r\n Pentru a susține acest demers a fost lansată și pe plan internațional campania virală #ParisWeLoveYou, cu mesajul principal: \"PARIS VA FI ÎNTOTDEAUNA PARIS\". Un site de internet dedicat - Parisweloveyou.fr -, îi invită pe internauți să partajeze fotografii în care își arată atașamentul față de Paris și, datorită forței rețelelor sociale, să creeze un elan de mobilizare colectivă. Pentru Christian Mantei, Directorul general al agenției Atout France: „implicarea în acest proiect, punerea la dispoziție a forței pe care o are rețeaua noastră la nivel internațional era un lucru incontestabil. De asemenea, constituie și modul de a mulțumi persoanelor din întreaga lume care, de o lună de zile, ne transmit mesaje de solidaritate.”\r\n\r\nÎn acest context scopul turistic al Franței rămâne neschimbat - atingerea pragului de 100 milioane de turiști până în anul 2020. Industria furnizează acum la PIB-ul Franței circa 7%.\r\n\r\nAtout France a mai anunțat că vechiul nume al portalului francez de promovare turistică - rendezvousenfrance.com -, a fost înlocuit cu adresa www.France.fr. El este disponibil acum în 17 limbi iar România are un site dedicat ce poate fi accesat din meniul ”Eastern Europe”.\r\nANGELA SIMION\r\n______________________________________________\r\n

Compania Hilton Worldwide a anunțat la începutul acestui an lansarea conceptului Tru by Hilton. Primul hotel cu acest brand se va deschide în curând în Statele Unite. Totodată lanțul amintit planuiește să extindă brandul și în afara SUA, în principal în Canada, piețe pe care speră că se va poziționa pe segmentul midscale. Potrivit specialiștilor de la Bloomberg, brandul nu pare să își fi planificat să intre pe „piețe scumpe”, precum New York și San Francisco, ci se orientează mai degrabă spre orașele mai mici, în apropiere de colegii și de marile autostrăzi.
\r\nHilton Worldwide deține deja peste 100 hoteluri midscale care vor fi afiliate la noul brand și alte 30 de unități aflate în diferite stadii de aprobare în Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Chicago, Denver, Portland sau Nashville.\r\n______________________________________________\r\nMADEIRA - Super trofeu la WTA\r\n![\"Madeira](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Madeira-2.jpg\")

Marriott International Inc. a anunțat încheierea acordului pentru preluarea Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide. Tranzacția are o valoare de peste 12 miliarde de dolari. Marriott va plăti în total 11,9 miliarde de dolari în formă de acțiuni și 340 milioane de dolari în numerar. Fuziunea aprobată în unanimitate de conducerile celor două companii, încheie un maraton al negocierilor ce s-au derulat mai mulți ani.Tranzactia cu Marriott ar putea fi finalizată la jumătatea lui 2016. Compania rezultată va avea în portofoliu 5.500 de hoteluri și 1,1 de milioane de camere în total, în peste 100 de țări. Brand-urile celebre ale Starwood, ce acoperă nișe importante ale pieței hoteliere de lux, vor fi combinate cu prezența puternică a Marriott în segmentele hoteliere clasice. Astfel vom creea un portofoliu mult mai cuprinzător ce va fi operat de cel mai mare lanț hotelier mondial.
\r\n\"Am fost în afaceri pentru o lungă perioadă de timp, însa Starwood este prezent mai mult la nivel global decât Marriott\" - a declarat Arne Sorenson, CEO Marriott, managerul care va conduce compania nou formată. \"Consiliul nostru a ajuns la concluzia că o unificare cu Marriott va genera o valoare mai mare pe termen lung pentru acționari și un viitor mai puternic pentru noua companie\" - a subliniat la rândul său Bruce Duncan, președintele Starwood.

Cel de-al 24 film din această serie oferă suspans din plin, în decorul Alpilor din Otztal, Solden și în Obertilliach, un sat pitoresc din Tiroul de Est. Șoseaua situată la cea mai mare altitudine din Alpi iar în vârf restaurantul iceQ în formă de cub de gheață au fost spațiile principale de filmare în care s-au desfășurat scenele de acțiune din Alpi ale inapuizabilului Daniel Craig - a subliniat Christina Ruhfass, directorul de marketing al regiunii Tirol.
\r\nEgiptenii la rândul lor mizează pe contribuția celebrului artist Morgan Freeman care lucrează în noua peliculă ”The Story of God”. O parte din scenariu este filmat în centrul istoric al orașului Cairo. Programul starului hollywoodian a inclus însă, mai multe vizite la atracții culturale din Egipt pe care le-a vizitat împreună cu ministrul egiptean al turismului, domnul Hisham Zaazou.\r\n\r\n
\r\nȘi industria publicitară turistică a vecinilor de la Dunăre a ”invitat” trei staruri de pe platourile americane. Sylvester Stallone, Antonio Banderas și Salma Hayek promoveaza Bulgaria, într-un clip dat publicității de către Ministerul Turismului. Actorii au apreciat diversitatea peisajelor din Bulgaria, ideală pentru producătorii de filme aflați în permanentă căutare de locații spectaculoase și accesibile ca preț. Lor li s-au alăturat și starurile Adrien Brody respectiv Jason Statham.
\r\nClipul a fost proiectat în premieră la Los Angeles, în deschiderea filmului Judecata, propunerea Bulgariei la Oscarul pentru cel mai bun film într-o limbă străină. „După filmele cu Harry Potter, în Anglia turismul a crescut cu 50%. Game of Thrones, filmat în Croația, a crescut popularitatea acestei țări ca destinație de vacanță.\r\n\r\nAcesta este motivul pentru care Bulgaria vrea să valorifice legăturile cu Hollywood-ul” - a apreciat Nikolina Angelkova, ministrul bulgar al turismului.\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n______________________________________________\r\n
\r\nACCOR - Lux să fie\r\n\r\n
O tranzacție în valoare de 3 miliarde de dolari americani va fi finalizată la jumătatea acestui an. Grupul francez Accor a convenit preluarea companiei canadiene FRHI Holdings, proprietarul brandurilor hoteliere Fairmont, Raffles și Swissotel. El devine astfel cel mai cel mai vizibil operator global pe segmentul hotelurilor de lux. Tranzacția în numerar și acțiuni constituie a treia mare achiziție de hoteluri ce s-a derulat în 2015, potrivit datelor companiei de consultanță Dealogic. Dar în același timp și cea mai mare achiziție din istoria Accor Hotels care va urca pe poziția a treia în topul celor mai mari grupuri hoteliere mondiale, după Marriott-Starwood și Intercontinental.
\r\nAccor deține aproximativ 500.000 de camere de hotel la nivel mondial și 10 branduri internaționale. Cu 42 de proprietăți în America de Nord, FRHI conferă Accor prezența pe piața Statelor Unite, de unde lipsea de la vânzarea brandului Motel 6. Proprietarii FRHI, Autoritatea pentru Investitii din Qatar și Kingdom Holding Company of Saudi Arabia, vor primi 840 milioane de dolari în numerar și 46,7 de milioane de acțiuni noi Accor. Potrivit acordului, Autoritatea pentru Investitii din Qatar-ul va deține 10,5% din Accor, iar Kingdom Holdings, companie a prințului saudit al-Waleed bin Talal, 5,8% din acțiunile Accor.\r\nAccor operează pe plan mondial în 92 de țări unde deține 3.600 de hoteluri cu 450.000 de camere. În prezent, doar 15% din hotelurile AccorHotels sunt în segmentul hotelurilor de lux - sub mărcile Sofitel, Pullman și MGallery, 38 sunt pe cel mediu iar 47% în segmentul economy.\r\n______________________________________________\r\n

Compania Hilton Worldwide a anunțat la începutul acestui an lansarea conceptului Tru by Hilton. Primul hotel cu acest brand se va deschide în curând în Statele Unite. Totodată lanțul amintit planuiește să extindă brandul și în afara SUA, în principal în Canada, piețe pe care speră că se va poziționa pe segmentul midscale. Potrivit specialiștilor de la Bloomberg, brandul nu pare să își fi planificat să intre pe „piețe scumpe”, precum New York și San Francisco, ci se orientează mai degrabă spre orașele mai mici, în apropiere de colegii și de marile autostrăzi.
\r\nHilton Worldwide deține deja peste 100 hoteluri midscale care vor fi afiliate la noul brand și alte 30 de unități aflate în diferite stadii de aprobare în Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Chicago, Denver, Portland sau Nashville.\r\n______________________________________________\r\nMADEIRA - Super trofeu la WTA\r\n\r\n2016 ar putea fi anul turistic al Insulei Madeira.

Marriott International Inc. a anunțat încheierea acordului pentru preluarea Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide. Tranzacția are o valoare de peste 12 miliarde de dolari. Marriott va plăti în total 11,9 miliarde de dolari în formă de acțiuni și 340 milioane de dolari în numerar. Fuziunea aprobată în unanimitate de conducerile celor două companii, încheie un maraton al negocierilor ce s-au derulat mai mulți ani.Tranzactia cu Marriott ar putea fi finalizată la jumătatea lui 2016. Compania rezultată va avea în portofoliu 5.500 de hoteluri și 1,1 de milioane de camere în total, în peste 100 de țări. Brand-urile celebre ale Starwood, ce acoperă nișe importante ale pieței hoteliere de lux, vor fi combinate cu prezența puternică a Marriott în segmentele hoteliere clasice. Astfel vom creea un portofoliu mult mai cuprinzător ce va fi operat de cel mai mare lanț hotelier mondial.
\r\n\"Am fost în afaceri pentru o lungă perioadă de timp, însa Starwood este prezent mai mult la nivel global decât Marriott\" - a declarat Arne Sorenson, CEO Marriott, managerul care va conduce compania nou formată. \"Consiliul nostru a ajuns la concluzia că o unificare cu Marriott va genera o valoare mai mare pe termen lung pentru acționari și un viitor mai puternic pentru noua companie\" - a subliniat la rândul său Bruce Duncan, președintele Starwood.
\r\nStarwood Hotels & Resorts a inaugurat în august 2015, la București, prima unitate Sheraton de pe piața românească și negociază poziționarea unor hoteluri în Cluj-Napoca și Timișoara. Marriott International este prezent în capitala României prin JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel.

Hollywood-ul pleacă de acasă iar actorii simt gustul sângelui... turistic. Instituții de promovare, de stat ori private, pun la bătaie bugete cu multe zerouri, dar confidențiale, pentru a face filme sau măcar secvențe și clipuri cu actori celebrii.
\r\nImpresarii lui James Bond l-au plimbat pe acesta din Mexic, până în Germania și Austria. Cei care s-au folosit din plin de imaginea turistică a lui 007 în cel mai nou film - Spectre -, sunt însă austriecii.

De fiecare când un rege, un prinț, o vedetă a cinematografiei ori un producător TV ne laudă pentru frumusețile naturale trăim așa, un extraz care seamănă mai degrabă cu o căciuleală. În fața stării de fapt rămânem cu gura căscată de mirare. Ce bine le zic acești oameni, să vede că sunt mai instruiți, mai inteligenți decât noi, mai clarvăzători. Se întâmplă de câteva decenii și în turismul românesc. Dintr-o țară nici prea mare, nici atât de mică, nici cea mai fantastică, dar nici de ocolit. Ce mai, ne place să ne căciulim, când cineva ne spune că avem un suflet mare și atracții frumoase, ca și când omul care o afirmă, îmbrăcat cu haine adecvate de comunicare de către o firmă de PR și Imagine, ar fi descoperit America. N-o să coborâm acuma scările istoriei până în Evul Mediu, dar am putea reinterpreta comportamentul vasalului față de senior, stăpân ori rege. Secole la rând românilor le-a cam plăcut să li se spună ce și cum să facă. Ține de mentalitate, inferioritate și manipulare. Le place și azi!
În turism un site aruncă pe piață, așa din întâmplare, oare?, că nu știu ce pădure bântuită din Transilvania ori ce cascadă urlătoare sunt cele mai grozave din lume. Drept urmare cădem în fund de extraz. Rămânem așa o vreme, până suntem treziți de altă descoperire senzațională. Românii au Delta Dunării, un Paradis mondial care merită vizitat, castele medievale care merită filmate cu tot cu urmașii lui Dracula etc. Și iar cădem pe spate. Și ce e rău în asta, o să întrebați? Mai nimic, numai că mentalitatea asta de închinare în fața jupânului, de servitor care se mulțumește cu câțiva bani aruncați pe jos, este jenantă și lipsită de conținut. Pe vremuri vasalul, subordonat seniorului, primea pentru serviciile sale sub jurământ, drept recompensă pământ, adică o feudă. Azi, în promovarea imaginii turistice a României, lucrurile stau oarecum pe dos. Vasalul îl plătește pe stăpân, adică firme de promovare și publicitate internaționale, cu bani grei, pentru a-l scoate din anonimat, eventual ca destinație turistică.
\r\nAlo trezirea! Nimeni nu cade pe spate după atracțiile României. Totul se plătește. Că unii reușesc cu talent să estompeze acest lucru, e demn de aplaudat. Promovarea, mireasa aceea pe cal alb, vine la întâlnire, dacă este plătită. Așa e scris scenariul. Cum nu știați? Totul se plătește, iar promovarea turistică se face în fiecare zi. Deci trebuie plătită permanent. Atunci când nu mai e carburant (buget de promovare), mașina de fabricat imagini și echipele producătoare trag pe dreapta.
\r\nIntrăm în tunelul verii. Țara se numește România și așteaptă să o redescoperiți.

\n\n\nThe winning city of Romania will be announced this summer. The programme European Capital of Culture is a project innitiated by The Council of Ministries of Culture of the EU in 1985. The only Romanian city so far taken in account has been Sibiu, which shared the distinction of European Capital of Culture in 2007 with Luxemburg.\nGOLDEN TULIP in Mamaia becoms ZENITH\n\n

The latest prize came in 2014 for Târgu Jiu – City of Brâncuși. The last four awards represent successfull projects organized and promoted by the Tourism Press Club - FIJET ROMANIA. \n\nThe Golden Apple distinction is considered the Oscar prize of the international travel media. It was created by FIJET in 1970 and since then it has been given, every year, to one or more great destinations or personalities of the travel industry. Last year the distinction went to the cities of Moscow (Russia), Dubrovnik (Croatia) and Palic (Serbia).\n \nRomania is in VISIT EUROPE \nThe on-line Visit Europe Magazine recommends Romania as a destination for 2016.

Industria hotelieră nu e un joc de noroc. Ca peste tot prudența este mama înțelepciunii. Cei care au făcut afaceri legați la ochi de consilieri cu două fețe s-ar mulțumi acum să vândă ieftin ce au cumpărat scump. Dar lumea fraierilor parcă s-a topit sau a fugit din țară !
\nGOLDEN TULIP din Mamaia devine ZENITH\n\n
\n\n\nTop International deține două platforme specializate de distribuție pentru facilități de conferințe - „Conference Finder” - și pentru facilități de spa - „Spa Finder”. De asemenea o nouă investiție va completa facilitățile oferite de hotel. Este vorba de un centru Spa, avangardist (va include piscină, saună, jacuzzi și sală de fitness), legat de hotel printr-o pasarelă. El va fi inaugurat la jumatatea lunii iunie. După cum se știe din 2010 hotelul a promovat pe piață cel mai mare Centru de conferințe de pe litoral. \n\n\n\nFondat în urmă cu trei decenii, Top International Hotels include peste 400 de hoteluri de 3-5 stele în principalele destinații turistice din Europa. Lanțul german operează peste 140 de unități sub brandurile proprii Top International și Top City&CountryLine, precum și 260 de unități sub mărcile Welnessfinder, Embrace Hotels, VCH-Hotels și Falkensteine.\nMÂNA ÎNTINSĂ nu vinde hoteluri !\n\n
\n\nDar cea mai ”tare” afacere a făcut-o Josef Goschy când a cumpărat Complexul Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere din Olimp. Nu întîmplător acesta a declarat că a fost cel mai neinspirat business din viața lui. El a plătit în 2008 suma de 30 de milioane de euro. Dar Complexul de 770 de camere necesita investiții foarte mari. Cum nu s-au găsit soluții de finanțare, ansamblul s-a degradat atât arhitectonic cât și la nivelul serviciilor. Cu toate acestea Goschy a încercat să-l vândă contra sumei de 60 de milioane de euro. Ulterior omul și-a revenit și se mulțumea și cu 30 de milioane. Azi se află la vânzare la 23 de milioane. Și tot nimic.\n\n\n\nÎn același timp însă Josef Goschy a reușit să vândă cu 4,8 milioane de euro hotelul Sport din Cluj către SIF Moldova, sumă cu care a acoperit un credit contractat în 2008, la Banca Transilvania. Culmea, această datorie face parte din creditul în valoare de 23 de milioane de euro cu care Goschy și-a adjudecat complexul Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere din Olimp. Unita Turism rămâne însă pe piața hotelieră un actor redutabil. Societatea operează acum peste 3.000 de camere în 25 de hoteluri amplasate în toată țara. \nEUROLINES a cumpărat o parte din VALEA VERDE\n\n
\n\nComplexul Valea Verde a fost înființat în urmă cu 10 ani în localitatea Cund aflată la 30 de kilometri de Sighișoara și 28 de aeroportul din Târgu Mureș. Proprietarii săi sunt bucătarul Jonas Schaefer și soția Ulrike Schaefer, doi germani din zona Hamburg stabiliți ulterior în România. Ei au investit atunci în refacerea și restaurarea a 18 apartamente și 4 case de vacanță amplasate într-un sat săsesc, dar și într-un restaurant, o sală de conferințe și un lac. \n\nAnastasiu - care anul trecut a cumpărat 50% din complexul Green Village aflat în Delta Dunării, unde a preluat prin Eurolines și managementul complexului - a precizat că împreună cu familia Schaefer va investi în următorii ani câteva milioane de euro. Dezvoltarea vizează creșterea capacității de cazare în case cu arhitectură de același tip. „La vreo 500 de metri distanță, vom realiza în aceeași vale un eco-chalet cu 30 camere, spa și restaurant. Proiectul necesită investiții de circa 3 milioane de euro. Resortul Valea Verde ar putea, în urma investițiilor derulate, să ajungă de la 200.000 la o cifră de afaceri de peste 1 milion de euro. În aceste condiții și turiștilor atrași de pe piața internă dar și din Germania, Austria ori Marea Britanie ar putea crește substanțial” - este de părere Dragoș Anastasiu. În plus investitorii intenționează să dezvolte în zonă și o școala de bucătari. Pentru toate aceste proiecte doresc să acceseze fonduri europene. \nANGELA SIMION, ION BADEA

Industria hotelieră nu e un joc de noroc. Ca peste tot prudența este mama înțelepciunii. Cei care au făcut afaceri legați la ochi de consilieri cu două fețe s-ar mulțumi acum să vândă ieftin ce au cumpărat scump. Dar lumea fraierilor parcă s-a topit sau a fugit din țară !
\r\nGOLDEN TULIP din Mamaia devine ZENITH\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\n\r\nTop International deține două platforme specializate de distribuție pentru facilități de conferințe - „Conference Finder” - și pentru facilități de spa - „Spa Finder”. De asemenea o nouă investiție va completa facilitățile oferite de hotel. Este vorba de un centru Spa, avangardist (va include piscină, saună, jacuzzi și sală de fitness), legat de hotel printr-o pasarelă. El va fi inaugurat la jumatatea lunii iunie. După cum se știe din 2010 hotelul a promovat pe piață cel mai mare Centru de conferințe de pe litoral. \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nFondat în urmă cu trei decenii, Top International Hotels include peste 400 de hoteluri de 3-5 stele în principalele destinații turistice din Europa. Lanțul german operează peste 140 de unități sub brandurile proprii Top International și Top City&CountryLine, precum și 260 de unități sub mărcile Welnessfinder, Embrace Hotels, VCH-Hotels și Falkensteine.\r\nMÂNA ÎNTINSĂ nu vinde hoteluri !\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nDar cea mai ”tare” afacere a făcut-o Josef Goschy când a cumpărat Complexul Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere din Olimp. Nu întîmplător acesta a declarat că a fost cel mai neinspirat business din viața lui. El a plătit în 2008 suma de 30 de milioane de euro. Dar Complexul de 770 de camere necesita investiții foarte mari. Cum nu s-au găsit soluții de finanțare, ansamblul s-a degradat atât arhitectonic cât și la nivelul serviciilor. Cu toate acestea Goschy a încercat să-l vândă contra sumei de 60 de milioane de euro. Ulterior omul și-a revenit și se mulțumea și cu 30 de milioane. Azi se află la vânzare la 23 de milioane. Și tot nimic.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nÎn același timp însă Josef Goschy a reușit să vândă cu 4,8 milioane de euro hotelul Sport din Cluj către SIF Moldova, sumă cu care a acoperit un credit contractat în 2008, la Banca Transilvania. Culmea, această datorie face parte din creditul în valoare de 23 de milioane de euro cu care Goschy și-a adjudecat complexul Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere din Olimp. Unita Turism rămâne însă pe piața hotelieră un actor redutabil. Societatea operează acum peste 3.000 de camere în 25 de hoteluri amplasate în toată țara. \r\nEUROLINES a cumpărat o parte din VALEA VERDE\r\n\r\n

Consumatorii de vacanțe s-au obișnuit să vină la începutul primăverii la Brașov Business Park unde, între 11 și 13 martie, s-a consumat cea de-a IX-a Transylvania Tourism Fair (TTF).
\r\nManifestarea a atras circa 50 de firme. Noutăți? În prim plan la Brașov a apărut touroperatorul Christian Tour, care a revitalizat și aici ritmul de contacte, contracte și vânzări. Directorul de marketing Marius Berca a anunțat la conferința de presă lansarea noului concept Memento Bus.

La Craiova, oraș neglijat de touroperatorii români, a apărut între 18 și 20 martie, prima ediție a Târgului de Turism al Olteniei (TTO). Era și timpul.\n\nZona are un potențial dinamic extraordinar iar în multe localități turismul s-a trezit la viață datorită injecțiilor cu vitamine asigurate prin finanțele proiectelor europene. Ca urmare cele mai vizibile componente ale evenimentului găzduit de Centrul Multifuncțional Craiova, au fost aceste programe. Ce ne-a atras atenția? Standurile și expunerile județului Mehedinți (care a venit cu o creație foarte bine lucrată pe segmentul brandului și imaginilor identitare, dar și programe din Clisura Dunării, Isverna, Pe urmele lui Brâncuși, Băile Herculane etc).\n\n \n\nCa noutate la Eșelnița a fost înființat un centru local de informare și promovare turistică, lucru benefic pentru această zonă naturală. La fel de reușită a fost prezența județului Gorj care arată că știe să-și valorifice Trofeul Golden Apple, obținut în 2014, pentru Orașul Târgu Jiu - Axa Brâncuși, prin Asociația de Promovare și Dezvoltarea Turismului. Consiliul Județean Vâlcea a venit cu câteva dintre atuurile sale - stațiunile Govora respectiv Călimănești-Căciulata, fiind repuse în valoare de noile investiții făcute în bazele de tratament. Ne-a plăcut expunerea proiectului ”Altița Dăbuleniului” care își propune să stimuleze tradiția creării de ii și costume populare.\n\n[gallery ids=\"4759,4758,4757,4756,4755,4754\"]\n\nPe segmentul de travel organizatorul - PS Multiservices srl -, a avut un succes moderat. Doar câțiva operatori care vând România au onorat manifestarea - TUI Travel Center, Star Tours, Paralela 45 (cu o prezență modestă), respectiv Gorj Turism. Probabil că acest lucru se explică și prin faptul că piața de travel s-a comprimat iar în același timp cu TTO Craiova, alte județe au găzduit manifestări similare.

La Craiova, oraș neglijat de touroperatorii români, a apărut între 18 și 20 martie, prima ediție a Târgului de Turism al Olteniei (TTO). Era și timpul.\r\n\r\nZona are un potențial dinamic extraordinar iar în multe localități turismul s-a trezit la viață datorită injecțiilor cu vitamine asigurate prin finanțele proiectelor europene. Ca urmare cele mai vizibile componente ale evenimentului găzduit de Centrul Multifuncțional Craiova, au fost aceste programe. Ce ne-a atras atenția? Standurile și expunerile județului Mehedinți (care a venit cu o creație foarte bine lucrată pe segmentul brandului și imaginilor identitare, dar și programe din Clisura Dunării, Isverna, Pe urmele lui Brâncuși, Băile Herculane etc).\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCa noutate la Eșelnița a fost înființat un centru local de informare și promovare turistică, lucru benefic pentru această zonă naturală. La fel de reușită a fost prezența județului Gorj care arată că știe să-și valorifice Trofeul Golden Apple, obținut în 2014, pentru Orașul Târgu Jiu - Axa Brâncuși, prin Asociația de Promovare și Dezvoltarea Turismului. Consiliul Județean Vâlcea a venit cu câteva dintre atuurile sale - stațiunile Govora respectiv Călimănești-Căciulata, fiind repuse în valoare de noile investiții făcute în bazele de tratament. Ne-a plăcut expunerea proiectului ”Altița Dăbuleniului” care își propune să stimuleze tradiția creării de ii și costume populare.\r\n\r\n[gallery ids=\"4759,4758,4757,4756,4755,4754\"]\r\n\r\nPe segmentul de travel organizatorul - PS Multiservices srl -, a avut un succes moderat. Doar câțiva operatori care vând România au onorat manifestarea - TUI Travel Center, Star Tours, Paralela 45 (cu o prezență modestă), respectiv Gorj Turism. Probabil că acest lucru se explică și prin faptul că piața de travel s-a comprimat iar în același timp cu TTO Craiova, alte județe au găzduit manifestări similare.

Exploratori englezi, olandezi, francezi și spanioli, dar și pirați (în amintirea lor se organizează anual ”Săptămâna Piraților”), cu toții au profitat de proviziile oferite de insulă. Și au transformat-o într-un nod de aprovizionare. Rezervele interioare de apă au fost și au rămas potabile. Caimanii au dispărut în întregime. Iar acest lucru s-ar fi întâmplat și cu broaștele țestoane care au fost exploatate și valorificate de industrial pentru carnea gustoasă și carapace, mai ales de către britanici, imperiu care deține insulele din 1670. \nAlarmate de o asemenea proiecție numeroase organizații și fundații s-au luptat să schimbe optica de gândire și s-o direcționeze spre o dezvoltare sustenabilă. Ea se sprijină azi pe turism și finanțe. Dacă din această ecuație ar fi dispărut recifurile de corali, broaștele de un auriu strălucitor, numeroase plante colecționate azi, circa 300 de specii, în Grădina botanică (în fapt o rezervație lungă de o milă), turismul ar fi avut enorm de suferit. Și localnicii în același timp. Pe insulele cu o suprafață totală de 100 de kilometri pătrați trăiesc circa 45.000 de locuitori. O mare parte din ei - europeni și africani -, își asigură veniturile din prestațiile turistice. Marile pelerinaje în natură sunt asigurate de turismul subacvatic spre care se îndreaptă anual sute de mii de turiști ce frecventează recifurile de corali, epavele navelor scufundate și coloniile de pești exotici. Cea mai căutată este Ferma de broaște țestoase, un mini-institut de cercetări. Ghidul dar și cercetătorii îți relatează episoade din lupta dusă pentru salvarea și repopularea apele oceanului cu aceste specii care n-au scăpat încă de amenințătoarea dispariție. Anual ajung la maturitate și sunt redate sălbăticiei sute de exemplare de broaște țestoase și această muncă este apreciată la justă valoare de către vizitatori. O fotografie cu un pui de ”Las Tortugas” e o decizie inspirată. Ca și o mică donație pentru susținerea proiectelor de cercetare.

Mă bucură evoluţia pieţei româneşti de vinuri. Ne așteptăm la o dinamică stabilă, de câteva puncte procentuale, pentru anii viitori” - ne-a declarat Mihaela Tyrel de Poix, proprietar S.E.R.V.E.

\nORADEA: Curse charter de la Tel Aviv\n\n
În acest an e posibil ca aproximativ 2000 de turiști israelieni să vină la Oradea și în stațiunea Băile Felix. Anunțul a fost făcut de către omul de afaceri Meidan Butnaru, care are rădăcini native în România. După ce în 2014 a deschis cu succes curse charter către Constanţa şi Bucureşti, el dezvoltă pentru 2016 un nou proiect de incoming pentru România: curse charter Tel Aviv – Oradea. Zborurile vor avea loc săptămânal, în perioada verii și vor fi operate cu compania Blue Air. Potrivit lui Butnaru, directorul comercial al touroperatorului israelian, Meshek Wings, „în acest an, vom genera pentru destinaţia Oradea circa 1.800.000 de euro, luând în calcul zborurile, hotelurile, serviciile la sol etc”. Turiştii israelieni vor fi cazaţi în staţiunea Băile Felix şi în municipiul Oradea. Pachetele turistice vor fi dedicate familiilor şi adulţilor, iar cazarea va avea loc în hoteluri de 4 şi 5 stele. Pe de altă parte, Meidan Butnaru va organiza, în acest sezon estival, trei zboruri săptămânale pe aeroportul Constanţa, pentru Mamaia, în perioada iunie-august. Pentru Bucureşti sunt estimaţi 25.000 de turişti israelieni pentru tot anul, fiind operate tot trei zboruri pe săptămână, dar într-un interval mai mare de timp.\n\n
Potrivit datelor Institutului Național de Statistică România a primit 219.000 de israelieni, din care 100.000 vin în interes de afaceri sau pentru cazinouri. Israelul ocupă locul doi, ca număr de turiști, după Germania (234.000 de turisti).

Instituții de promovare, de stat ori private, pun la bătaie bugete cu multe zerouri, dar confidențiale, pentru a face filme sau măcar secvențe și clipuri cu actori celebrii.
\nImpresarii lui James Bond l-au plimbat pe acesta din Mexic, până în Germania și Austria. Cei care s-au folosit din plin de imaginea turistică a lui 007 în cel mai nou film - Spectre -, sunt însă austriecii. Cel de-al 24 film din această serie oferă suspans din plin, în decorul Alpilor din Otztal, Solden și în Obertilliach, un sat pitoresc din Tiroul de Est. Șoseaua situată la cea mai mare altitudine din Alpi iar în vârf restaurantul iceQ în formă de cub de gheață au fost spațiile principale de filmare în care s-au desfășurat scenele de acțiune din Alpi ale inapuizabilului Daniel Craig - a subliniat Christina Ruhfass, directorul de marketing al regiunii Tirol.
\nEgiptenii la rândul lor mizează pe contribuția celebrului artist Morgan Freeman care lucrează în noua peliculă ”The Story of God”. O parte din scenariu este filmat în centrul istoric al orașului Cairo. Programul starului hollywoodian a inclus însă, mai multe vizite la atracții culturale din Egipt pe care le-a vizitat împreună cu ministrul egiptean al turismului, domnul Hisham Zaazou.\n![\"Actor](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Actor-Stallone.jpg\")
\n
Și industria publicitară turistică a vecinilor de la Dunăre a ”invitat” trei staruri de pe platourile americane. Sylvester Stallone, Antonio Banderas și Salma Hayek promoveaza Bulgaria, într-un clip dat publicității de către Ministerul Turismului. Actorii au apreciat diversitatea peisajelor din Bulgaria, ideală pentru producătorii de filme aflați în permanentă căutare de locații spectaculoase și accesibile ca preț. Lor li s-au alăturat și starurile Adrien Brody respectiv Jason Statham.\n\n![\"Actori](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Actori-Daniel-Graig-spectre.jpg\")
Clipul a fost proiectat în premieră la Los Angeles, în deschiderea filmului Judecata, propunerea Bulgariei la Oscarul pentru cel mai bun film într-o limbă străină. „După filmele cu Harry Potter, în Anglia turismul a crescut cu 50%. Game of Thrones, filmat în Croația, a crescut popularitatea acestei țări ca destinație de vacanță.\n\nAcesta este motivul pentru care Bulgaria vrea să valorifice legăturile cu Hollywood-ul” - a apreciat Nikolina Angelkova, ministrul bulgar al turismului.

\nACCOR - Lux să fie\n\n
O tranzacție în valoare de 3 miliarde de dolari americani va fi finalizată la jumătatea acestui an. Grupul francez Accor a convenit preluarea companiei canadiene FRHI Holdings, proprietarul brandurilor hoteliere Fairmont, Raffles și Swissotel. El devine astfel cel mai cel mai vizibil operator global pe segmentul hotelurilor de lux. Tranzacția în numerar și acțiuni constituie a treia mare achiziție de hoteluri ce s-a derulat în 2015, potrivit datelor companiei de consultanță Dealogic. Dar în același timp și cea mai mare achiziție din istoria Accor Hotels care va urca pe poziția a treia în topul celor mai mari grupuri hoteliere mondiale, după Marriott-Starwood și Intercontinental.
\nAccor deține aproximativ 500.000 de camere de hotel la nivel mondial și 10 branduri internaționale. Cu 42 de proprietăți în America de Nord, FRHI conferă Accor prezența pe piața Statelor Unite, de unde lipsea de la vânzarea brandului Motel 6. Proprietarii FRHI, Autoritatea pentru Investitii din Qatar și Kingdom Holding Company of Saudi Arabia, vor primi 840 milioane de dolari în numerar și 46,7 de milioane de acțiuni noi Accor. Potrivit acordului, Autoritatea pentru Investitii din Qatar-ul va deține 10,5% din Accor, iar Kingdom Holdings, companie a prințului saudit al-Waleed bin Talal, 5,8% din acțiunile Accor.\nAccor operează pe plan mondial în 92 de țări unde deține 3.600 de hoteluri cu 450.000 de camere. În prezent, doar 15% din hotelurile AccorHotels sunt în segmentul hotelurilor de lux - sub mărcile Sofitel, Pullman și MGallery, 38 sunt pe cel mediu iar 47% în segmentul economy.\n______________________________________________\n
\nFRANȚA - ”Paris va fi întotdeauna Paris”\n\n\n\nGuvernul francez, municipalitatea din Paris, în parteneriat cu mediul de afaceri și Agenția de promovare Atout France au lansat o campanie care își propune să sporească atractivitatea Parisului, poarta de intrare turistică a Franței. Această inițiativă are și rolul de a combate prin turism impactul tragicelor evenimente teroriste ce au avut loc anul trecut în Franța. Ele au avut nu numai un impact afectiv asupra populației ci s-a resimțit vizibil și asupra economiei aferente acestui sector. \n\n Pentru a susține acest demers a fost lansată și pe plan internațional campania virală #ParisWeLoveYou, cu mesajul principal: \"PARIS VA FI ÎNTOTDEAUNA PARIS\". Un site de internet dedicat - Parisweloveyou.fr -, îi invită pe internauți să partajeze fotografii în care își arată atașamentul față de Paris și, datorită forței rețelelor sociale, să creeze un elan de mobilizare colectivă. Pentru Christian Mantei, Directorul general al agenției Atout France: „implicarea în acest proiect, punerea la dispoziție a forței pe care o are rețeaua noastră la nivel internațional era un lucru incontestabil. De asemenea, constituie și modul de a mulțumi persoanelor din întreaga lume care, de o lună de zile, ne transmit mesaje de solidaritate.”\n\nÎn acest context scopul turistic al Franței rămâne neschimbat - atingerea pragului de 100 milioane de turiști până în anul 2020. Industria furnizează acum la PIB-ul Franței circa 7%.\n\nAtout France a mai anunțat că vechiul nume al portalului francez de promovare turistică - rendezvousenfrance.com -, a fost înlocuit cu adresa www.France.fr. El este disponibil acum în 17 limbi iar România are un site dedicat ce poate fi accesat din meniul ”Eastern Europe”.\nANGELA SIMION\n______________________________________________\n
\nA fost lansat TRU by HILTON
\nCompania Hilton Worldwide a anunțat la începutul acestui an lansarea conceptului Tru by Hilton. Primul hotel cu acest brand se va deschide în curând în Statele Unite. Totodată lanțul amintit planuiește să extindă brandul și în afara SUA, în principal în Canada, piețe pe care speră că se va poziționa pe segmentul midscale. Potrivit specialiștilor de la Bloomberg, brandul nu pare să își fi planificat să intre pe „piețe scumpe”, precum New York și San Francisco, ci se orientează mai degrabă spre orașele mai mici, în apropiere de colegii și de marile autostrăzi.
\nHilton Worldwide deține deja peste 100 hoteluri midscale care vor fi afiliate la noul brand și alte 30 de unități aflate în diferite stadii de aprobare în Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Chicago, Denver, Portland sau Nashville.\n______________________________________________\nMADEIRA - Super trofeu la WTA\n2016 ar putea fi anul turistic al Insulei Madeira. Cel puțin acestea sunt comentariile specialiștilor apărute după ce Madeira a fost desemnată “World’s Leading Island Destination” - 2015, în cadrul ceremoniei World Travel Awards (echivalentul Oscarului pentru industria de turism) care a avut loc în Maroc. Distincția este onorantă cu atât mai mult cu cât în anii anteriori insulele care au primit această distincție sunt exotice, îndepartate și mai puțin accesibile pentru europeni din punct de vedere logistic și financiar. Astfel Madeira intră în această galerie selectă a distincțiilor care au recompensat în ultimii opt ani insulele Bali, Mauritius respectiv Maldive, ultimele două de câte trei ori

\nCea mai mare companie hotelieră mondială
\nMarriott International Inc. a anunțat încheierea acordului pentru preluarea Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide. Tranzacția are o valoare de peste 12 miliarde de dolari. Marriott va plăti în total 11,9 miliarde de dolari în formă de acțiuni și 340 milioane de dolari în numerar. Fuziunea aprobată în unanimitate de conducerile celor două companii, încheie un maraton al negocierilor ce s-au derulat mai mulți ani.Tranzactia cu Marriott ar putea fi finalizată la jumătatea lui 2016. Compania rezultată va avea în portofoliu 5.500 de hoteluri și 1,1 de milioane de camere în total, în peste 100 de țări.

Hollywood-ul pleacă de acasă iar actorii simt gustul sângelui... turistic. Instituții de promovare, de stat ori private, pun la bătaie bugete cu multe zerouri, dar confidențiale, pentru a face filme sau măcar secvențe și clipuri cu actori celebrii.
\r\nImpresarii lui James Bond l-au plimbat pe acesta din Mexic, până în Germania și Austria. Cei care s-au folosit din plin de imaginea turistică a lui 007 în cel mai nou film - Spectre -, sunt însă austriecii. Cel de-al 24 film din această serie oferă suspans din plin, în decorul Alpilor din Otztal, Solden și în Obertilliach, un sat pitoresc din Tiroul de Est. Șoseaua situată la cea mai mare altitudine din Alpi iar în vârf restaurantul iceQ în formă de cub de gheață au fost spațiile principale de filmare în care s-au desfășurat scenele de acțiune din Alpi ale inapuizabilului Daniel Craig - a subliniat Christina Ruhfass, directorul de marketing al regiunii Tirol.
\r\nEgiptenii la rândul lor mizează pe contribuția celebrului artist Morgan Freeman care lucrează în noua peliculă ”The Story of God”. O parte din scenariu este filmat în centrul istoric al orașului Cairo. Programul starului hollywoodian a inclus însă, mai multe vizite la atracții culturale din Egipt pe care le-a vizitat împreună cu ministrul egiptean al turismului, domnul Hisham Zaazou.\r\n\r\n
Și industria publicitară turistică a vecinilor de la Dunăre a ”invitat” trei staruri de pe platourile americane. Sylvester Stallone, Antonio Banderas și Salma Hayek promoveaza Bulgaria, într-un clip dat publicității de către Ministerul Turismului. Actorii au apreciat diversitatea peisajelor din Bulgaria, ideală pentru producătorii de filme aflați în permanentă căutare de locații spectaculoase și accesibile ca preț. Lor li s-au alăturat și starurile Adrien Brody respectiv Jason Statham.\r\n\r\nClipul a fost proiectat în premieră la Los Angeles, în deschiderea filmului Judecata, propunerea Bulgariei la Oscarul pentru cel mai bun film într-o limbă străină. „După filmele cu Harry Potter, în Anglia turismul a crescut cu 50%. Game of Thrones, filmat în Croația, a crescut popularitatea acestei țări ca destinație de vacanță.\r\n\r\nAcesta este motivul pentru care Bulgaria vrea să valorifice legăturile cu Hollywood-ul” - a apreciat Nikolina Angelkova, ministrul bulgar al turismului.

\r\nACCOR - Lux să fie\r\n\r\n
O tranzacție în valoare de 3 miliarde de dolari americani va fi finalizată la jumătatea acestui an. Grupul francez Accor a convenit preluarea companiei canadiene FRHI Holdings, proprietarul brandurilor hoteliere Fairmont, Raffles și Swissotel. El devine astfel cel mai cel mai vizibil operator global pe segmentul hotelurilor de lux. Tranzacția în numerar și acțiuni constituie a treia mare achiziție de hoteluri ce s-a derulat în 2015, potrivit datelor companiei de consultanță Dealogic. Dar în același timp și cea mai mare achiziție din istoria Accor Hotels care va urca pe poziția a treia în topul celor mai mari grupuri hoteliere mondiale, după Marriott-Starwood și Intercontinental.
\r\nAccor deține aproximativ 500.000 de camere de hotel la nivel mondial și 10 branduri internaționale. Cu 42 de proprietăți în America de Nord, FRHI conferă Accor prezența pe piața Statelor Unite, de unde lipsea de la vânzarea brandului Motel 6. Proprietarii FRHI, Autoritatea pentru Investitii din Qatar și Kingdom Holding Company of Saudi Arabia, vor primi 840 milioane de dolari în numerar și 46,7 de milioane de acțiuni noi Accor. Potrivit acordului, Autoritatea pentru Investitii din Qatar-ul va deține 10,5% din Accor, iar Kingdom Holdings, companie a prințului saudit al-Waleed bin Talal, 5,8% din acțiunile Accor.\r\nAccor operează pe plan mondial în 92 de țări unde deține 3.600 de hoteluri cu 450.000 de camere. În prezent, doar 15% din hotelurile AccorHotels sunt în segmentul hotelurilor de lux - sub mărcile Sofitel, Pullman și MGallery, 38 sunt pe cel mediu iar 47% în segmentul economy.\r\n______________________________________________\r\n
\r\nFRANȚA - ”Paris va fi întotdeauna Paris”\r\n\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_4788\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"1024\"] Eiffel Tower seen from fountain at Jardins du Trocadero at a sunny summer day, Paris, France[/caption]\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nGuvernul francez, municipalitatea din Paris, în parteneriat cu mediul de afaceri și Agenția de promovare Atout France au lansat o campanie care își propune să sporească atractivitatea Parisului, poarta de intrare turistică a Franței. Această inițiativă are și rolul de a combate prin turism impactul tragicelor evenimente teroriste ce au avut loc anul trecut în Franța. Ele au avut nu numai un impact afectiv asupra populației ci s-a resimțit vizibil și asupra economiei aferente acestui sector. \r\n\r\n Pentru a susține acest demers a fost lansată și pe plan internațional campania virală #ParisWeLoveYou, cu mesajul principal: \"PARIS VA FI ÎNTOTDEAUNA PARIS\". Un site de internet dedicat - Parisweloveyou.fr -, îi invită pe internauți să partajeze fotografii în care își arată atașamentul față de Paris și, datorită forței rețelelor sociale, să creeze un elan de mobilizare colectivă. Pentru Christian Mantei, Directorul general al agenției Atout France: „implicarea în acest proiect, punerea la dispoziție a forței pe care o are rețeaua noastră la nivel internațional era un lucru incontestabil. De asemenea, constituie și modul de a mulțumi persoanelor din întreaga lume care, de o lună de zile, ne transmit mesaje de solidaritate.”\r\n\r\nÎn acest context scopul turistic al Franței rămâne neschimbat - atingerea pragului de 100 milioane de turiști până în anul 2020. Industria furnizează acum la PIB-ul Franței circa 7%.\r\n\r\nAtout France a mai anunțat că vechiul nume al portalului francez de promovare turistică - rendezvousenfrance.com -, a fost înlocuit cu adresa www.France.fr. El este disponibil acum în 17 limbi iar România are un site dedicat ce poate fi accesat din meniul ”Eastern Europe”.\r\nANGELA SIMION\r\n______________________________________________\r\n
\r\nA fost lansat TRU by HILTON\r\n\r\n
Compania Hilton Worldwide a anunțat la începutul acestui an lansarea conceptului Tru by Hilton. Primul hotel cu acest brand se va deschide în curând în Statele Unite. Totodată lanțul amintit planuiește să extindă brandul și în afara SUA, în principal în Canada, piețe pe care speră că se va poziționa pe segmentul midscale. Potrivit specialiștilor de la Bloomberg, brandul nu pare să își fi planificat să intre pe „piețe scumpe”, precum New York și San Francisco, ci se orientează mai degrabă spre orașele mai mici, în apropiere de colegii și de marile autostrăzi.
\r\nHilton Worldwide deține deja peste 100 hoteluri midscale care vor fi afiliate la noul brand și alte 30 de unități aflate în diferite stadii de aprobare în Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Chicago, Denver, Portland sau Nashville.\r\n______________________________________________\r\nMADEIRA - Super trofeu la WTA\r\n\r\n2016 ar putea fi anul turistic al Insulei Madeira. Cel puțin acestea sunt comentariile specialiștilor apărute după ce Madeira a fost desemnată “World’s Leading Island Destination” - 2015, în cadrul ceremoniei World Travel Awards (echivalentul Oscarului pentru industria de turism) care a avut loc în Maroc. Distincția este onorantă cu atât mai mult cu cât în anii anteriori insulele care au primit această distincție sunt exotice, îndepartate și mai puțin accesibile pentru europeni din punct de vedere logistic și financiar. Astfel Madeira intră în această galerie selectă a distincțiilor care au recompensat în ultimii opt ani insulele Bali, Mauritius respectiv Maldive, ultimele două de câte trei ori

\r\nCea mai mare companie hotelieră mondială\r\n\r\n
Marriott International Inc. a anunțat încheierea acordului pentru preluarea Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide. Tranzacția are o valoare de peste 12 miliarde de dolari. Marriott va plăti în total 11,9 miliarde de dolari în formă de acțiuni și 340 milioane de dolari în numerar. Fuziunea aprobată în unanimitate de conducerile celor două companii, încheie un maraton al negocierilor ce s-au derulat mai mulți ani.Tranzactia cu Marriott ar putea fi finalizată la jumătatea lui 2016. Compania rezultată va avea în portofoliu 5.500 de hoteluri și 1,1 de milioane de camere în total, în peste 100 de țări. Brand-urile celebre ale Starwood, ce acoperă nișe importante ale pieței hoteliere de lux, vor fi combinate cu prezența puternică a Marriott în segmentele hoteliere clasice.

\r\n\r\n2021: Cine va fi Capitală Culturală Europeană?\r\n\r\nDin cele 14 orașe care și-au depus candidatura pentru titlul de ”Capitală Europeană a Culturii 2021” au rămas în cursă doar 4. Inițial Ministerul Culturii a primit spre analiză dosarele candidaților: Alba Iulia, Arad, Bacău, Baia Mare, Brașov, Brăila, București, Cluj-Napoca, Craiova, Iași, Sfântu Gheorghe, Suceava, Timișoara și Târgu-Mureș.
\r\nLa sfârșitul anului trecut un juriu format din 12 experți internaționali a făcut selecția pe baza mai multor criterii valabile internațional și i-a anunțat pe cei rămași în cursă: Timişoara, Baia Mare, Cluj-Napoca, Bucureşti! ”Cele 4 orașe au fost alese în ordine aleatorie. Pur şi simplu aleatorie. Toate Capitalele Europene ale Culturii şi oraşele care sunt pe lista scurtă atrag atenţie internaţională. Nu doar pentru activitatea lor culturală, dar şi pentru tot ceea ce înseamnă decizii şi politici” - a anunțat Steve Green, președintele juriului. În vara acestui an vom afla orașul câștigător din România pentru acest titlul. El va fi premiat de Comisia Europeană cu 1,5 milioane de euro. De asemenea, Guvernul va contribui cu cel puțin 10 milioane de euro iar alte bugete pentru proiectele de infrastructură vor fi susținute de autoritățile locale.\r\n\r\nProgramul \"Capitală culturală europeană\" a fost inițiat de Consiliul de Miniștri ai Culturii din UE în 1985, cu scopul de a apropia popoarele Europei și de a celebra contribuția orașelor la dezvoltarea culturii. Până în prezent, peste 40 de localități au deținut acest titlu. Singurul oraș românesc nominalizat este Sibiul care în 2007 a figurat în calendarul anual alături de Luxemburg.\r\nMARA ANTON

Țara noastră a participat cu un stand de 349 metri pătrați, unde consumatori de vacanțe dar și specialiști în turism -, au luat contact cu programele și ofertele agențiilor prezente. Printre atracții s-au numărat Delta Dunării – Rezervație a Biosferei și sit UNESCO, care promovează conceptul de ecoturism; Județul Satu Mare care a început să-și promoveze brandul turistic; artistul Nicolae Voiculeț, Ambasador al Turismului Românesc; ansamblul Ceatăra din Carei(județul Satu Mare), cunoscuți producători de vinuri etc.\r\nPESTE 2000 DE CAMERE IN SISTEM ALL INCLUSIVE
\r\nConducerea ANAT apreciază că în acest an vor trecere la regimul all inclusive numeroase hoteluri de pe litoral ce dețin peste 2.000 de camere. Aproape toate sunt amplasate în stațiunile din sud. În prezent, conform aceleiași surse, majoritatea complexelor care au adoptat acest sistem (cu un portofoliu de circa 3.000 de camere) activează în stațiunile Mamaia, Năvodari și Eforie Nord. Cele mai multe dintre acestea sunt în Venus. Acestora li se adaugă Cleopatra din Saturn, Olimpic și Capitol din Jupiter. În plus, la complexul Steaua de Mare din Eforie Nord se va da în folosință un număr de camere din cel de-al treilea hotel, a cărui renovare se apropie de finalizare. Vara trecută litoralul românesc a atras circa 1,8 milioane de turiști dintre care aproximativ 2% au fost străini, mai precizează ANAT.

\r\nManifestarea a atras circa 50 de firme. Noutăți? În prim plan la Brașov a apărut touroperatorul Christian Tour, care a revitalizat și aici ritmul de contacte, contracte și vânzări. Directorul de marketing Marius Berca a anunțat la conferința de presă lansarea noului concept Memento Bus.
\r\n[gallery ids=\"4747,4748,4749,4750,4751,4752\"]\r\n\r\nEl a mai declarat că operatorul român își va completa flota cu 10 autocare noi, marca Neoplan. Așa se explică și dinamismul pe care l-au adoptat în business agenții prezente, printre care TUI Center, Paralela 45, Star Tours etc. Dertour România și Amadeus au fost sponsorii de marcă ai evenimentului. La fel de dinamică s-a dovedit și participarea unor complexe de cazare: În premieră a apărut lanțul Transilvania Hotel & Travel, controlat de SIF Transilvania cu unități de vacanță sau balneare ce funcționează la Brașov, Predeal, Tușnad, Ploiești, Băile Felix sau pe Litoral.\r\n\r\nMaria Dan, manager regional, ne-a precizat că este vorba e o nouă construcție ce are în centru ca investitor – pilon societatea Feper SA. Compania, deținută de tot de SIF Transilvania dezvoltă un Centru de afaceri în turism. La fel de interesante ni s-au părut prezentările de extindere a conceptului All Inclusive pe litoral unde noutățile din grupul THR Marea Neagră, sunt hotelul Cleopatra din Saturn, iar din 2017 Lidia din Venus – a precizat directorul Narcisa Moșoiu. La Covasna va reintra in circuitul turistic hotelul Căprioara, complet refăcut.\r\n\r\nDe la sfârșitul anului trecut tot aici funcționează Mercur Spa & Wellness, proprietate a unor investitori din București, cel mai nou de 4 stele, din zona balneară. Același grup de afaceri mai deține complexul Mercur din Galați și Pensiunea Casa Matei din Buzău – ne-a precizat managerul Gheorghe Onea. Vezi aici oferte de revelion!\r\nInformațiile le-am aflat în timpul seminarelor desfășurate la Ziua Specialistului de la TTF Brașov. Organizatorul Kron-Tour Expo, companie condusă de Sorin Dencescu, a rămas în continuare fidel conceptelor B2B, care individualizează foarte bine manifestarea. Remarcat a fost standul fundației Mihai Eminescu Trust, în care au avut loc demonstrații de țesut și împletituri din crengi de salcie și răchită, tradiții care au renăscut la Mălâncrav. La fel de atractiv a fost standul complexului tematic Dino Park din Râșnov. De la deschiderea din vara anului trecut până acum el a fost căutat de peste 300.000 de turiști. Pe lista recomandărilor noastre au intrat complexul de conferințe Belvedere; Hanul Domnesc, inclusiv pentru oferta gastronomică și restaurantele Roata Norocului din Brașov, respectiv Subcetate din Râșnov, oaze ale ospitalității și bunului gust.

\r\nVenită la Bucureşti pentru prima dată Petra Hedorfer, Preşedintele Consiliului Director al Organizaţiei Germane pentru Turism (DZT), a făcut o prezentare ilustrată a atuurilor turistice deţinute de ţara pe care o reprezintă. O premieră, pentru că până acum turismul german nu a făcut un asemenea pas pe piaţa românească. Motivul sosirii doamnei Hedorfer l-a constituit deschiderea Reprezentanţei de marketing şi promovare a Germaniei de la Belgrad, care acoperă cu activităţile sale şi România. Dar despre asta ceva mai încolo.
\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" columns=\"4\" ids=\"1921,1925,1926,1918\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\n\r\nSectorul turistic german generează 2,9 milioane de locuri de muncă. Numai în 2010 el a contribuit la PIB cu aproape 100 de miliarde de euro (4,4%) devansând industria de automobile (2,3%) dar şi pe cea a construcţiilor care a atins pragul de 4,3%. Aşa arătau datele studiului Asociaţiei Naţionale a Sectorului Turistic (BTW/BMWI). Care mai consemna că turiştii au consumat produse şi servicii în valoare de 278, 3 miliarde de euro, dintre care 115,4 miliarde au fost cheltuite pentru cazare. Aproximativ 30% din volumul cheltuielilor pentru înnoptări (34,1 miliarde de euro) a fost asigurat de turiştii străini. În topul cheltuielilor de consum 10,8 miliarde au fost cheltuite pentru transport, 9,5 miliarde pentru cazare, 5 miliarde pentru gastronomie etc.\r\nLa concurenţă cu Franţa şi Spania
\r\nLesne de înţeles că lupta se duce în principal pe atragerea turistului european. “În ultimul an, Germania şi-a consolidat poziţia printre cele mai iubite destinaţii de vacanţă din Europa înregistrând creşteri semnificative din principalele pieţe furnizoare” – ne explica preşedinta Petra Hedorfer. În 2011 cu o creştere de 7%, comparativ cu anul precedent ţara berii a atras 42,7 milioane de călători din Europa. Astfel Germania a urcat pe locul al doilea ca destinaţie turistică a europenilor, după Spania (+8%), distanţându-se de Franţa care se află în poziţia a treia (+1%), arată statisticile IPK Internaţional. Şi ca destinaţie culturală Germania ocupă de asemenea o poziţie de top aflându-se pe locul doi imediat după Franţa, în clasamentul celor mai căutate destinaţii turistice culturale ale europenilor. Ştiaţi asta?
\r\nSimpatia pentru destinaţia de vacanţă Germania nu are concurenţă pe plan mondial susţine liderul DZT. “Nu mă refer numai la evoluţia pozitivă a transporturilor de călători ci şi la imaginea excelentă în exterior. Acest fapt este confirmat, printre alte de Anholt-GfK Roper Nation Brand Index (NBI), care evaluează anual imaginea a 50 de ţări după criterii ca: export, puterea executivă, cultură, oameni, turism şi imigraţie/investiţii. Prin valorile ei Germania a ocupat în 2010 şi 2011, locul al doilea ca imagine şi poziţionare între naţiuni. La categoria “destinaţii turistice”, ea a urcat pe locul 8 în 2011 ca opţiune de vacanţă, respectiv pe 5 ca destinaţie culturală de vacanţă.\r\nTeme cheie: Wagner şi Fraţii Grimm
\r\nCum s-a ajuns aici? Temele cheie pe care s-a concentrat promovarea au contribuit semnificativ la succesul destinaţiei de vacanţă Germania. Prin activităţile sale de marketing, DZT a contribuit activ la creşterea aceastei imagini dinamice. Pe baza tendinţelor principale – cultură, sănătate şi recreere, a dezvoltat liniile de produse turism urban şi city break, turismul de evenimente precum şi cel de afaceri. Acestea reprezintă punctul de pornire al unor campanii tematice alternative precum pentru teme actuale. Destinaţia de vacanţă are de oferit şi în anul 2013 o serie de atracţii culturale pe care DZT le promovează intens ca teme principale.
\r\nPentru ce merită să vă îndreptaţi în acest an spre Germania? Interlocutorii ne spun că în 2013 vor miza pe… Richard Wagner, fraţii Grimm şi Henry van de Veldes. Compozitorul Wagner va fi aniversat pentru 200 de ani de la naşterea sa cu programe culturale şi artistice extrem de complexe în oraşe unde şi-a lăsat amprenta celebră - Leipzig, Dresda, Nurnberg, Munchen şi Bayreuth. Emblematicii povestitori (comemorare a 150 de ani) vor fi susţinuţi prin “ample acţiuni de mediatizare, relaţii publice şi de presă. Marele arhitect universal, ce va cunoaşte o aniversare de 150 de ani de la naştere, va fi susţinut prin campanii internaţionale de presă. Este un prilej excepţional de a poziţiona Germania pe plan internaţional ca ţară a artei şi a culturii. Prin activităţile noastre de PR, cu ocazia acestor jubilee ne adresăm unui grup ţintă interesat de cultură, pe care dorim să-l inspirăm, astfel încât să selecteze Germania printre primele destinaţii de călătorie şi vacanţă” – a mai declarat Petra Hedorfer. Pe aceeaşi linie 2014 va fi centrat pe promovarea Consiliului de la Konstanz (600 de ani de la întrunire), şi Revoluţia de la Leipzig (25 de ani); 2015 va fi marcat prin comemorarea pictorului Luchas Cranach (500 de ani); 2017 va fi dedicat lui Luther (500 de ani de reformă); iar 2019, va fi dominat de centenarul stilului Bauhaus. Turismul adevărat se face cu seriozitate şi viziune.\r\nŞi apropo de cultură…
\r\nÎncă un mit spulberat. Deşi germanii sunt cunoscuţi ca mari băutori de bere, datorită marelui festival internaţional Octoberfest din Munchen, ei bine, ei sunt cel puţin la fel de mari băutori de vin. Au şi un festival al vinului ce se ţine în una din cele 13 regiuni viticole. Sunt îndrăgostiţi şi de sărbătorile de sfârşit de an, marcând de fiecare dată acest lucru cu cele peste 2.500 de Târguri de Crăciun.
\r\nZestrea istorică şi culturală este depozitată şi cultivată în peste 10.000 de oraşe – nu este nicio greşeală -, cu caracter unic ce conturează imaginea turistică a Germaniei. Metropole incitante – Berlin-ul în special – atrag prin diversitate arhitecturală, muzee, teatre şi săli de concerte , prin oferta de shopping ori prin patrimoniul UNESCO, ce reuneşte 37 de situri, dintre care se evidenţiază monumente istorice, cultura industrială şi peisajele remarcabile ce vorbesc despre această ţară din inima Europei. Alte detalii actualizate aflaţi la adresa www.germany.travel.\r\nVin la putere tinerii
\r\nPromovarea şi marketingul extern vor avea concentrat mesajul, în 2013, pe ţinta care apropie viitorul de prezent.Youth Travel – Germania este o destinaţie de vacanţă pentru tineret (Hot spots). Reprezintă însă şi un mesaj ce va fi rulat pe termen mediu.
\r\nAceasta este şi o parte din misiunea noii reprezentanţe DZT deschisă la Belgrad ce acoperă activităţile din Europa de Sud Est. Ea activează în parteneriat cu organizaţia Danube Competence Center (DCC) şi se exprimă cu mesaje de marketing şi promovare în ţări ca Bosnia şi Herţegovina, Bulgaria, România, Croaţia, Muntenegru, şi Serbia. După cum declara la Bucureşti Nebojsa Matijasevic, directorul Reprezentanţei DZT pentru Europa de Sud Est “Potenţialul turistic este enorm în Europa de Sud Est. Printr-o strategie dedicată de cercetare de piaţă şi promovare intensivă continuăm fructificarea acestuia. Germania a înregistrat în 2011 un număr de 1,7 milioane de sosiri din ţări amintite. Acest volum ar putea depăşi 2 milioane de sosiri până în 2020, printr-o creştere medie de trei procente. Printr-o poziţionare strategică aceste pieţe pot fi atinse eficient din Belgrad.”\r\n\r\nÎn opţiunile de călătorie ale turiştilor români Germania se situează pe locul al treilea, după Ungaria şi Bulgaria. Ca o idee românii au realizat în 2011 circa 473.000 de călătorii în Germania marcând o creştere a numărului de sosiri comparativ cu anul precedent de 11%. 35% dintre turişti au călătorit cu scopul de a-şi petrece concediul în Germania, iar durata medie a şederii a fot 17,4 nopţi. Bugetul mediu cheltuit pe zi de români este de 48 de euro, un nivel bun comparativ cu turiştii sosiţi aici din ţările sud-estice.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nFOTO: DZT & CONVEXUS 2000','Germania a început cruciada promovarii, TENDINTE nr.107','','inherit','closed','closed','','1915-revision-v1','','','2016-08-07 12:38:53','2016-08-07 10:38:53','',1915,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2016/08/07/1915-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4803,1,'2016-08-07 12:46:09','2016-08-07 10:46:09','Cluj-Napoca – European Capital of Youth 2015\nThe Municipality of Cluj-Napoca was designated the European Capital of Youth in 2015. The documentation on which such decision relies stipulates that the youth is a serious investment for sustainable and responsible urban development. The name of the program presented is SHARE, a strong, clear, tough, diversified and interesting concept. ”SHARE supports the sharing of space, of culture, of power, of labour, of joy, of joint European vision and values, through topics such as the Bar, mobility, structured dialogue and information for youth. Focusing on the European dimension and collaboration with universities, the civil society and local partners, Cluj-Napoca is able to provide permanent consulting services in the trials related to the problems of youth\", it is stated in the youthforum.org handout. The title of European Capital of Youth was awarded for the first time in 2009 to the town of Rotterdam, followed by Torino, Anvers, Braga, Maribor. Salonic will hold this title in 2014.
\nAEROTRAVEL brings MSC to Constanţa\nUntil the autumn of this year, no Romanian could embark on a cruise vessel from Constanţa port. It will become however starting with September 27th, an embarking point for MSC Cruises vessels. The company will begin to operate a cruise from Constanţa, on a route including six destinations (except for the leaving point). The first passengers will embark directly from Romania on the board of the vessel MSC Musica. They will leave in an 11-night cruise on the route Constanţa-Gythion-Vene-ţia-Katakolon-Istanbul-Yalta-Odessa-Constanţa. Another 3 courses of MSC Musica will leave this autumn from the port of Constanta, said An-to-nio Niţu, general manager of Aero-travel Lufthansa City Center, partner agency of MSC since 2009, selling the abovementioned offers. Niţu estimates that this cruise will be undertaken, until the end of 2013, by around 400 Romanians. Last year, the company sold 3.000 cruises in Romania but with embarking from ports abroad on MSC vessels, and this year he estimates an increase by 50%.
\nNational Geographic recommends Danube Delta\n\n
Danube Delta appears in a top of the recommendations made by the editors of National Geographic Traveller for the trips this spring. This natural attraction from Romania is included in the first 9 touristic proposals of places where one may spend the holiday. The other destinations are located in New Zeeland, Netherlands, USA, Portugal, Argentina and South Africa.\nSituated in the south-east of Romania, at the confluence of Danube and Black Sea, Danube Delta is included in UNESCO patrimony. The last important prize received by the Biosphere Reservation Danube Delta – “Golden Apple” -, was awarded by the International Federation of Tourism Journalists and Editors (FIJET), in 2009, and it is displayed at the Ecotouristic Museum from the town of Tulcea (Tulcea county).
\nFABULOUS: A circuit of 990.000 British pounds
\nThe British from the website VeryFirstTo, conceived a touristic offer which is said to be the most expensive in the world. It includes the visit of the 962 monuments of UNESCO patrimony held by 157 countries. The cultural trip in time is to be organised on a 2-year period and the service offer is estimated to reach 990.000 British pounds. In Romania one will visit Danube Delta, the monasteries from Moldova, Horezu, the fortified churches from Transilvania, the wooden churches from Maramureş, the Dacian borough from Oraştie and the borough of Sighişoarei. The great circuit on the map of the world includes stops at Taj Mahal or Machu Picchu, as well as in less known, but extremely beautiful sites, such as the painted farm from Halsingland Sweden.\nIRU: “Road transport: moving people, driving economies”\nThe International Road Transport Union (IRU), in partnership with IRU Associate Member, Rosgosstrakh, the CIS Coordinating Transport Conference and the National Taxi Council, today organised the 9th IRU International Road Transport Conference on the theme “Road transport: moving people, driving economies”. Some 200 delegates from CIS countries and the EU discussed how to promote collective passenger road transport by bus, coach and taxi to ensure sustainable mobility across Eurasia through the safest, greenest and most flexible transport services they offer at the lowest cost to society. Opening the Conference, IRU Secretary General, Martin Marmy, stressed, “The IRU launched the Smart Move campaign in 2009 and it has gained incredible momentum, turning into a major international movement and ultimately becoming a new policy instrument in the EU. If such a successful development was possible, it is exactly what we should expect to achieve together in Eurasia. A similar objective can also be pursued with the IRU initiative “Taxi - Anytime, Anywhere!” to place taxis on top of the political agenda, as the benefits provided by taxis have mostly been forgotten despite their tremendous unused potential to contribute to the improved effectiveness of a high quality public transport chain”.
\nSfântu Gheorghe wants to be… Cultural Capital\n\n\nThe management of Sfântu Gheorghe Municipality (Covasna county) announced that it will submit candidature to become an European Cultural Capital in 2021. The mayor Antal Arpad made some investigations and found out that every year one determines the countries that may candidate to become European Cultural Capital, and in 2021 it will be Romania’s and Greece’s turn. He considers that the project conceived has high chances to win because, up to present, the locality coordinated by him is the only candidate town that promotes a cultural and touristic region represented by Szekler Area.

Things are natural here, you have the feeling that you are in an untouched placed, which you do not find in Europe, where many cities are structured just like museums. The Romanians are natural, when you come here, you feel that you are welcome. All countries have resources, but people are the most important” – is the opinion of Taleb Rifai, general secretary of the World Tourism Organization (WTO). The declaration was made at the International Tourism Conference which took place at the Parliament’s Palace in Bucharest under the title “Identifying the Competitive Advantage of a Tourism Destination”. According to him, Romania was visited in 2012 by 1.6 million foreigners, and the average value of the amount spent on the territory of our country raises to about 780 Euro per person per stay.\r\n\r\n

\r\nÎn cadrul ediției 2013 a Skytrax World Airline Awards Turkish Airlines a fost declarată ”Cea mai bună Companie aeriană din Europa”, pentru al treilea an consecutiv, ”Cea mai bună Companie aeriană din Sudul Europei” și operatorul aerian cu ”Cel mai bun serviciu de catering la clasa Business”. Cele 3 distincții i-au fost înmânate domnului Temel Kotil, CEO al Turkish Airlines, de către Edward Plaisted, CEO al Skytrax. Printre noutățile anunțate de către managementul Turkish Airlines se numără lansarea în regiunea Asia-Pacific a unei noi curse, din 29 septembrie, cu o frecvență de 4 zboruri pe săptămână, pe ruta Istanbul-Katmandu (Nepal). Cu aceasta Turkish va asigura servicii și conexiuni pentru 238 de destinații internaționale.\r\n\r\nSkytrax, marcă mondială apreciată pentru aportul la ierarhizarea ofertelor aviatice, a evaluat peste 238 de companii aeriene și 148 de aeroporturi bazându-se pe opiniile formulate de pasageri. Studiul, la care au participat peste 100 de naționalități din 160 de țări, a fost derulat pe o perioadă de 10 luni.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nO zi pe AZAMARA JOURNEY\r\n\r\nPortul Constanța a primit în acest an numeroase vase de croazieră. Unul dintre cele mai elegante a fost Azamara Journey, care a adus peste 1.200 de turiști străini, în două programe turistice. Primul, de 9 nopți, a avut ca port de plecare Atena (Pireu) și de sosire Istanbul (Turcia) și s-a consumat în perioada 25 mai-3 iunie. Cel de-al doilea, tot o Croazieră pe Marea Neagră, dar de 12 nopți (între10 și 30 august), a avut ca punct de îmbarcare și de sosire Istanbul.\r\n
\r\n\r\nvezi aici galerie foto\r\nLa invitația companiei World Travel am avut ocazia de a vizita și evalua facilitățile acestei nave care a fost inaugurată în 2007 și renovată în 2013. E are o greutate de 30.277 tone, o lungime de de 180 de metri și o lățime de 25 de metri. Numele companiei Azamara Club Cruises înseamnă, în traducere liberă, “steaua mărilor albastre ale lumii” (Aza – Albastru, Mar – Mare, Acamar – cea mai strălucitoare stea ce se poate vedea din insulele grecești). Cu o flotă relativ mică, de doar 2 vase de croazieră moderne și luxoase, din clasa Premium Deluxe, acestea au fost incluse 3 ani la rând în Top 5 cele mai bune vase de croazieră din lume din categoria lor. Pe vasele Azamara Club Cruises luxul se vede cu ochiul liber încă din momentul în care pășești la bord – pornind de la finisajele interioare și culminând cu serviciile personalizate, pline de discreție. Într-o încercare fericită, spunem noi, de a se diferenția în fața competitorilor, compania a ales să ofere itinerarii unice cu șederi prelungite în port, sau plecări noaptea cât mai târziu pentru a permite oaspețiilor să se bucure mai mult de specificul și tradițiile locale. Pe Azamara Journey ne-au impresionat ambianțele speciale existente în restaurantele Discoveries, Aqualina, Prime C, stilul elegant și prietenos, cu mobilier funcțional. O Decorurile, printre ele veritabile galerii de artă, asigură o subliniere personalizată. O altă remarcă a fost făcută în dreptul cram ei care oferă o colecție de circa 8.000 de sticle de vin, ediții limitate ori vinuri rare ce provin din podgorii celebre, din Franța, California, Argentina ori Africa de Sud. Un alt loc care ne-a atras este Looking Glass, un salon special unde vă puteți reîncărca bateriile, la o cană de ceai, după ce ați admirat marea ori v-ați întors din programele opționale. În ceea ce privește partea de întreținere și enterteinment, amintim de Azamara Spa, veritabilă oază de liniște unde puteți alege între proceduri ca thalasoterapie, masaje, tratamente faciale, remodelare corporală etc, ori de Cabaret lounge, unde seara au loc spectacole de divertisment, ori Casino Luxe, unde aveți ocazia să vă încercați norocul dar și să urmăriți, la un televizor cu ecran plat, evoluția echipei preferate.\r\nDestinațiile Azamara Club Cruises pentru anul 2013 includ Europa, Asia, America de Sud, Indiile de Vest sau Țara Sfântă. O idee bună, apreciată de către turiști, s-a dovedit a fi aceea de a putea să achiziționezi mai multe intinerarii consecutive în scopul realizării unor vacanțe prelungite care cuprind mai multe țări și continente.\r\nConstanța Zurini - coordonator marketing și vanzări al companiei World Travel, Agent General de Vânzari pentru România și Republica Moldova pentru companiile Royal Caribbean International, Celebrity Cruises si Azamara Club Cruises - ne-a declarat că în 2014, la Constanța va ancora și Azamara Quest, cea de-a doua navă a Azamara Club Cruise. Ea va sosi de 3 ori în portul românesc în cadrul programelor de croazieră pe Marea Neagră: pe 14 iunie 2014, într-o croazieră de 9 nopți (cu îmbarcare la Istanbul și sosire la Atena); pe 30 august într-o croazieră de 12 nopți (plecare și sosire la Istanbul); respectiv, pe 3 septembrie într-o croazieră de 7 nopți (plecare și sosire la Istanbul).\r\n\r\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU','TURKISH AIRLINES - ”Cea mai bună Companie aeriană din Europa”, TRANSPORTURI nr.114','','inherit','closed','closed','','2441-revision-v1','','','2013-11-02 14:12:38','2013-11-02 12:12:38','',2441,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2013/11/02/2441-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4810,1,'2013-11-20 23:30:27','2013-11-20 21:30:27','KIEKER: ”Berlinul se află în Top 3 !”\r\n\r\n\r\n”25 de milioane de nopți de cazare. Peste 10,8 milioane de vizitatori au consumat anul trecut atracțiile Berlinului. Noul record turistic a urcat metropola germană în primele 3 destinații europene, după Londra și Paris. Este o performanță pe care ne-am propus să o depășim pentru că orașul nostru are un mare potențial economic, cultural și istoric” - a declarat Burkhard Kieker, președintele Biroului de Turism și Congrese și al organizației de promovare Visit Berlin, în timpul unei conferințe susținută la București. Cu o populație de 3,5 milioane de locuitori, orașul a devenit destinația numărul 1 a Germaniei pe segmentul industriei de congrese și conferințe. În 2012 el a găzduit 123.900 de manifestări care au atras 10,5 milioane de participanți. Placa turnantă o reprezintă International Congress Centre - ICC Berlin, cel mai mare complex de acest gen din Europa. După finalizarea unui program de investiții el își va dubla suprafața expozițională la sfârșitul acestui an. Astfel, în 2014 complexul va figura în primele 5 destinații internaționale pentru turismul de conferințe și expoziții.\r\n\r\n\r\nAceste performanțe sunt susținute de o infrastructură turistică extrem de generoasă. Orașul deține 3 site-uri ce fac parte din Patromoniul mondial UNESCO. 180 de muzee și clădiri memoriale care reflectă 775 de istorie urbană. Vizitatorii au la dispoziție circa 780 de hoteluri și alte unități de cazare, cu o capacitate de circa 138.000 de paturi. Ei se pot delecta în 11.234 de restaurante, shack-uri și cafenele la care se adaugă 2.318 baruri, pub-uri și cluburi. 12 dintre ele sunt clasificate cu 16 stele Michelin. Sunt doar câteva argumente care explică de ce Berlinul este foarte căutat și de către gurmanzi - a mai arătat Kieker.\r\nM. CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nMAURITIUS este un magnet pentru ROMÂNI\r\n
Scăldată de ape albastre și turcoaz Insula Mauritius din Oceanul Indian atrage anual circa un milion de turiști străini. Este o performanță deosebită în condițiile în care ea are numai 1,2 milioane de locuitori. Vizitatorii europeni - în top 4 figurează cei din Marea Britanie, Franța, Germania și Italia -, lasă anual aici circa 1 miliard de euro în contul vacanțelor de vis. Dacă în 2011 numărul românilor care au ajuns aici a fost de 1.055, anul trecut pe insulă au ceva mai puțini - 962 de călători. ”Prognozele pentru acest an sunt mult mai optimiste. Ne dorim cât mai mulți turiști din țara dumneavoastră pentru că sunt deosebiți, instruiți și deschiși să aprecieze tradițiile și serviciile cu care îi întâmpinăm” - a precizat în cadrul unei prezentări făcute la București, domnul Vijaye Haulder, Deputy Director al Mauritius Tourism Promotion Authority. El a fost însoțit de reprezentanți ai unor companii hoteliere, travel agenți și organizatori de evenimente tematice care au vorbit despre o parte dintre ofertele ce individualizează această destinație. Zahir Moossa, reprezentantul Luxe Voyage, a subliniat că Mauritius ”este un loc ideal pentru relaxare, iar o vacanță petrecută aici rămâne o experiență memorabilă. Nu întâmplător Mauritius este cunoscută și ca o destinație ideală pentru petrecerea lunii de miere”.\r\nDe asemenea Peter Schmidt, directorul de vânzări și marketing a companiei Sun Resorts Ltd, a prezentat facilitățile hoteliere apreciind că serviciile oferite în hotelurile de pe insulă se exprimă printr-un lux accesibil.\r\n\r\nPrincipalele agenții care vând destinația pe piața românească sunt Paralela 45, Prestige Tours si Dertour. Ele au organizat anul acesta primul zbor charter direct din România spre această destinație în perioada sărbătorilor de iarnă.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/air-serbia-site1.jpg\" "\\"air")
\r\nDupă ce investitorii arabi de la Etihad au cumpărat 49% din compania națională a Serbiei - JAT Aiways - oficialii au anunțat că aceasta va opera sub un nou nume - Air Serbia. Pe 9 decembrie ea va lansa la București noi zboruri, inclusiv pe ruta Belgrad-București. Anterior JAT Airways a avut un code-sharing cu Tarom, cursele fiind operate cu o aeronava ATR deținută de Tarom. Acum, sârbii vin pe piața românească cu propriul avion. Astfel pasagerii din România vor avea acces la celelalte destinații code-sharing ale Air Serbia și Etihad, cum ar fi Insulele Seychelles, Abu Dhabi, Australia etc.\r\n\r\nDHL - lansare de noi servicii\r\n\r\nDHL Express Romania a lansat serviciul DHL Express Easy pentru persoanele care expediază direct din sediile DHL Servicepoint. Prin acest serviciu pot fi făcute livrări de bunuri până la greutăți de 25 de kilograme. Serviciul DHL Express Easy este funcțional în peste 220 de țări. DHL Express Easy Student este un alt serviciu dedicat elevilor și studenților care aplică la universități și colegii din străinătate. Aceștia au posibilitatea să trimită documentele oficiale solicitate de universități la un tarif redus. DHL are pe piața românească o experiență de peste 20 de ani. Compania lucrează cu trei aeronave, o flotă de peste 200 de mașini și oferă o acoperire totală la nivel national.\r\n\r\neasyJet a revenit după 3 ani\r\nOperatorul low-cost britanic easyJet a revenit pe piața românească după trei ani de absență. Liderii săi estimează un trafic de pasageri de 65.000 de persoane anual, de două ori mai mic decât în 2008, primul an de funcționare completă în România. Revenirea companiei, în luna octombrie, a fost marcată prin începerea zborurilor pe ruta Londra-București. Cursele sunt programate în zilele de luni, joi, vineri, duminică în sezonul de iarnă -, respectiv luni, miercuri, vineri și duminică în sezonul de vară. easyJet a intrat pe piața românească în urmă cu 5 ani dar a renunțat la zborurile de la București în 2011. În 2008, opera curse din Otopeni către Italia, pe aeroportul Milano Malpensa și către Spania, pe aeroportul Madrid Barajas.\r\n\r\nLufthansa - achiziții de miliarde de dolari\r\nDeutsche Lufthansa a comandat 59 de avioane Boeing și Airbus în valoare de 19 miliarde de dolari. Aceasta este cea mai mare achiziție de aeronave efectuată vreodată de operatorul german.\r\n\r\nComanda include 34 de avioane Boeing 777-9X și 25 de aparate Airbus A350-900, dar și opțiuni de cumpărare pentru încă 30 de aeronave din fiecare tip. Livrările A350 vor începe în 2016, iar cele de aparate Boeing în 2020. Lufthansa a comandat în total, în acest an, avioane în valoare de 31 de miliarde de dolari. Operatorul german este și cel mai mare cumpărător european de avioane A380. El intenționează să ajungă la o flotă de 19 astfel de aparate.\r\n\r\nTAP Portugal - patru destinații noi\r\nDupă ce a intrat în iulie anul trecut pe piața românească cu șase zboruri pe săptămână pe ruta Lisabona-București, operatorul aerian TAP Portugal, are în derulare până la sfârșitul lui 2013 introducerea a patru destinații noi - două în Africa, Tanger și Boa Vista. Boa Vista este cea de-a patra destinație din arhipelagul Capului Verde către care TAP zboară de la 1 noiembrie. Compania operează curse din Lisabona către insulele Sal, Praia, Sao Vicente. În orarul de iarnă, pe ruta Lisabona-București, TAP a prevăzut doar 4 zboruri pe saptamana.\r\nAnul trecut compania - ce deține o flotă de 75 de aeronave cu care acoperă 78 de destinații -, a transportat 10 milioane de pasageri, în creștere cu 5% față de 2011.','TAP Portugal - patru destinații noi, TRANSPORTURI NR 116','','inherit','closed','closed','','2638-revision-v1','','','2014-01-21 02:33:17','2014-01-21 00:33:17','',2638,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2014/01/21/2638-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4814,1,'2014-03-04 13:06:03','2014-03-04 11:06:03','Două manifestări de promovare au readus în prim plan oferta Germaniei, o țară care preferă să vorbească puțin și să facă tot mai mult turism.\r\n\r\n[gallery link=\"file\" orderby=\"post_date\"]\r\nPrima a readus în atenție strategia pe 2014 a Oficiului de Turism al Germaniei condus de către Petra Hedorfer.

La o dezvoltare dinamică pe cele mai importante piețe sursă, tindem să atingem până în 2020 pragul de 80 de milioane de înnoptări ale turiștilor din străinătateʺ - ne declara Petra Hedorfer, Președinte al Consiliului de Administrație a Organizaţiei Germane pentru Turism (DZT).\r\n\r\nCe spune World Travel Monitor !\r\n\r\nȚările din sud-estul Europei reprezintă piețe de creștere importante pentru turismul Germaniei. ʺÎn 2012 am putut înregistra peste 1,9 milioane de călătorii în Germania din Bosnia și Herțegovina, Bulgaria, Croația, Muntenegru, România și Serbiaʺ, conform declarațiilor Petrei Hedorfer. La o creștere medie de circa trei procente pe an, volumul vizitelor în Germania de pe aceste piețe sursă va ajunge la mai mult de două milioane de călătorii până în anul 2020. Conform DZT și a World Travel Monitor de la IPK International, România a înregistrat în 2012 peste 525.000 de călătorii în Germania. Acest lucru reprezintă o creștere de 11,0 procente comparativ cu aceeași perioadă a anului trecut. Destinația de vacanță Germania ocupă astfel locul al doilea în ceea ce privește cele mai iubite destinații de vacanță străine ale turiștilor din România.\r\n\r\n35% din călătoriile turiștilor români în Germania sunt vacanțe – 40% dintre acestea se încadrează în segmentul călătoriilor în orașe și călătorii pentru evenimente speciale. 41% din sejururi sunt călătorii în interes de afaceri. Cu 30,2% din totalul înnoptărilor, Bayern reprezintă landul federal cel mai vizitat de turiștii români. Per total, 93% din călătoriile turiștilor români în Germania sunt sejururi mai lungi (peste patru zile). În medie, au cheltuit pentru o călătorie 658 Euro. Volumul cifrei de afaceri total a călătoriilor în Germania a turiștilor din România se ridică pentru anul 2012 la peste 300 milioane de euro.\r\n“Germania este și va rămâne în continuare una dintre cele mai îndrăgite destinații de vacanță atât la nivel mondial, cât și în preferințele românilor. Poziția este întărită în fiecare an. Dinamica se datorează, în primul rând, calității și diversității produselor turistice pe care le are de oferit Germania, dar și raportului preț-calitate excepțional. România este pe acest trend crescător, iar prin colaborarea pe care o avem cu partenerii noștri locali, suntem convinși că Germania va deveni o destinație de vacanță și mai căutată de de români” - a declarat Cristian Sallai.\r\n\r\n38 de comori culturale și naturale\r\n\r\nGermania se numără printre cele mai îndrăgite destinații turistice de vacanță ale Europei. Ea ocupa în 2012, conform IPK International, locul întâi în topul destinațiilor turistice pentru cultură ale europenilor. Dintre toate cele 50 de țări de la nivel mondial evaluate de Anholt-GFK Roper Netion Brands Index, Germania se află pe locul al cincilea în ceea ce privește cererea după domeniul ʺCulturăʺ. Printre multitudinea de comori culturale se numără și cele 38 de monumente naturale și culturale recunoscute de UNESCO. Sub motto-ul ʺPatrimoniul mondial UNESCO – turism durabil orientat spre cultură și naturăʺ, Organizația Germană pentru Turism (DZT) le dedică în Germania în anul 2014 siturilor patrimoniului mondial UNESCO. ʺSigla UNESCO nu este doar de o importanță deosebită pentru noi. Ea reprezintă și o marcă de calitate importantă în turismul internațional. Împreună cu partenerii strategici, vom întreprinde măsuri eficiente de marketing pentru a promova turismul cultural în Germaniaʺ explică Petra Hedorfer.\r\nDin cele 981 situri ale patrimoniului mondial recunoscute de UNESCO, peste jumătate se află în Europa – dintre care 38 în Germania.\r\n\r\nDatorită acestui fapt, Germania, alături de Franța, se află pe locul trei în Europa. Siturile protejate de UNESCO din Germania au deja o tradiție foarte veche: în anul 1978 a fost preluat în lista UNESCO primul monument cultural al Germaniei - Domul din Aachen. Al 38-lea și cel mai tânăr sit al patrimoniului mondial în Germania a fost numit în această vară parcul muntos Wilhemshöhe din Kassel. În clasamentul internațional a 140 de națiuni, Destinația de vacanță Germania a fost evaluată de către Travel & Tourism Competitiveness Report a World Economic Forum 2013 cu 6,3 puncte din șapte puncte posibile pentru resursele sale culturale.\r\n\r\nConform monitorului de calitate, 41 procente din oaspeții străini s-au hotărât pentru Germania ca destinație de vacanță datorită atracțiilor turistice. Majoritatea turiștilor dornici de cultură vin din SUA (22 procente) și Marea Britanie (17 procente). Pentru 34% din turiștii interesați de cultură, titlul ʺPatrimoniul mondial UNESCOʺ este suficient pentru a-și începe călătoria. În cadrul anului tematic DZT aduce siturile patrimoniului mondial UNESCO german, în centrul atenției activităților internaționale de marketing și distribuție.\r\n\r\nÎn colaborare cu UNESCO-Welterbestätten Deutschland e.V., au fost pregătite 8 trasee turistice, de-a lungul cărora, turiștii străini pot trăi experiențe inedite. Traseele diferite pornesc de la nord spre sud și fac legătura între diferitele situri ale patrimoniului mondial UNESCO precum și cu atracții turistice internaționale.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nFoto: Oficiul de Turism al Germaniei (DZT)\r\n','GERMANIA - Topuri, Zidul Berlinului și UNESCO - MAPAMOND nr. 117-118','','inherit','closed','closed','','2696-revision-v1','','','2016-08-07 12:57:06','2016-08-07 10:57:06','',2696,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2016/08/07/2696-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4817,1,'2014-05-14 00:24:00','2014-05-13 22:24:00','Ani de zile pentru mulţi oameni a merge în vacanţă însemna a duce o viaţă de belfer timp de o săptămână sau două: multă mâncare, băutură la discreţie.

\r\n\r\nGeneraţiile anilor \'90, denumite generaţiile „Z”, suferă cel mai mult de stres, sunt rapide dar comode în alegeri şi îşi cheltuiesc banii pe tehnologii avansate şi vacanţe. Un studiu recent Global Consumer Trends Survey al Euromonitor International detaliază tendinţele de consum la nivel global. El se concentrează pe profilul consumatorului conectat la Internet. În 2014 cam 40% dintre consumatorii globali vor fi online. Ei vor face alegeri după ce au citit părerile altor cumpărători dar vor achiziţiona lucruri mai mult din impuls, nu dintr-o necesitate reală. Metodele rapide de plată determină o achiziţie... la minut: trei click-uri stând pe scaunul din birou. Studiul Euromonitor arată că 23% din respondenţi citesc părerile celorlalţi despre produse online cel puţin odată pe săptămână, iar 12% îşi scriu părerea cel puţin săptămânal. În cazul pieţei asiatice, generoasă în cifre, 29% dintre chinezi îşi dau cu părerea în mediul virtual de 1-2 ori pe săptămână.\r\n\r\n\r\nAplicaţii pentru stimularea consumului\r\n\r\nNatura agitată, rapidă a ritmului de viaţă cotidian, face ca oamenii să caute serviciul care este cel mai accesibil şi să folosească orice invenţie care poate simplifica găsirea de informaţie într-o lume care emite milioane de mesaje, de produse, în care ai sute de variante dar nu și timpul necesar să le studiezi. Aplicaţiile oferite gratuit pentru telefoanele mobile ajută în a face alegeri dar şi la vânzarea rapidă de produse. Poţi cumpăra un obiect văzut într-o revistă prin intermediul unei aplicaţii, prin scanare de imagine şi plată prin telefonul mobil. Există un program care calculează spaţiul necesar în propria locuinţă pentru mobila văzută într-un catalog. Creatorii de campanii online caută transformarea celor care doar urmăresc site-urile în consumatori. Oferă vouchere de reduceri la discreţie, cupoane peste cupoane de avantaje, concursuri care să atragă reţele întregi de „prieteni” virtuali. Diferenţa între produse este făcută prin valoarea şi idealul asociate lor de către campaniile de marketing: ele speculează latura emoțională iar sloganurile şi brandurile vând mai mult decât produsul, promisiunea unei schimbări.\r\n\r\nCu schimbări semnificative se va confrunta și industria turistică. Restaurantele, hotelurile, agențiile de turism au în față noi provocări generate de tehnologii care vor să vândă cât mai mult. Cât de mult?\r\n\r\n\r\nDietele şi turismul\r\n\r\nNebunia dietelor a dus treptat la transformarea felului de a mânca. Piaţa este invadată de din ce în ce mai multe produse curate, organice, tradiţionale, biologice. Global Consumer Trends Survey arată că mai mult de jumătate din consumatorii mondiali sunt dispuşi să plătească mai mult pentru aceste produse „benefice” – ceea ce se întâmplă deoarece ele costă în general din ce în ce mai mult. Tendinţa consumatorilor către branduri şi produse sustenabile este explicată prin faptul că li se asociază o valoare socială mai mare. Oamenilor le pasă de calitatea mâncării dar şi de felul în care a fost crescută găina ori cultivată roşia.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/tendinte122-4.jpg\" "\\"tendinte122-4\\"")
\r\n\r\nCum era de așteptat și turismul îşi dezvoltă la nivel global o nouă componentă: tururile agricole! Dacă un drum al vinului pe la crame şi podgorii era pentru cunoscători iar un tur culinar atingea restaurante cu specific sau cu distincţii internaţionale, tururile agricole nu sunt pentru un public select, cunoscător. Familii cu copii, şcoli, comunităţi locale, merg să vadă cum se produce pâinea, de la bob la... feliere. Fermele îşi deschid porţile ca să explice cum se îngrijesc porcii sau cum se fac piersicile. În acelaşi timp cei care au ales un mod de viaţă „sănătos” pot descărca o aplicaţie pe mobil care, folosind localizare prin GPS, îţi arată unde se află cel mai apropiat restaurant ce oferă meniuri cu produse bio.\r\n\r\nIndustria hotelieră a ridicat mănușa\r\n\r\nÎn ciuda faptului că petrec mult timp online consumatorii îşi doresc să fie ancoraţi în comunitate. Caută siguranţă şi sunt sensibili la tot ceea ce este personalizat. Noi site-uri apărute pe piaţă vând nopţi de cazare în casele oamenilor. Turiştii scriu despre amabilitatea gazdei şi apreciază căldura şi senzaţia de confort oferită de apartament. Călătorind prin lume oamenii caută ceva care să mimeze căldura propriului cămin. Hotelurile mici, cu acel ceva special, sunt din ce în ce mai căutate. În acelaşi timp piaţa produselor de lux e în creştere. Hotelurile însă tind să depăşească bariera opulenţei ca linie în design şi se orientează spre luxul de inspiraţie locală, luxul care înseamnă mai degrabă rafinament şi un serviciu personalizat.\r\n\r\nSună retragerea din... conectare\r\n\r\nInsatisfacţiile legate de dezechilibrul dintre muncă şi viaţa socială va fi principala sursă de stres în 2014. Studiul Euromonitor arată că mutarea biroului acasă duce la mai multe ore de muncă şi incapacitatea de deconectare, de separare a planurilor. Jumătate dintre consumatorii respondenţi au pus bariere stricte între muncă şi viaţa personală. Nu citesc mail-uri în timpul liber şi se deconectează cu totul, până la a-şi închide telefonul atunci când pleacă în vacanţă. În industria de vacanţe ultima noutate la modă este: retragerea din... conectare. Au apărut complexe hoteliere şi baze de tratament şi echilibrare emoţională în care nu există internet, televizor iar telefonul mobil se predă la începutul vacanţei şi se ia la sfârşitul ei.\r\n\r\nPreviziunile pe anul în curs mizează pe succesul tehnologiei şi turismului. Produsele din ambele categorii sunt achiziţii temporare. Se consumă rapid, se înlocuiesc rapid, şi generează cumpărătorului un grad mare de satisfacţie.\r\n\r\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU','EUROMONITOR: - Ce alege consumatorul digital în 2014?, TENDINTE nr.122','','inherit','closed','closed','','3078-revision-v1','','','2014-08-14 01:08:08','2014-08-13 23:08:08','',3078,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2014/08/14/3078-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4823,1,'2016-08-07 13:05:03','2016-08-07 11:05:03','NOILE SERVICII ATRAG NOI CLIENȚI\r\n\r\nTimpul în care turistul trăgea la un hotel și era ”tratat” doar cu cazare și masă a expirat.

Pe malul lacului Snagov, la Vila 23 o investiție hotelieră a transformat o clădire rece care găzduia cândva protipendada comunistă, într-un hotel unic cu design și servicii exclusiviste. Oaspeții locației vor descoperi echilibrul și liniștea oferite de zonele de relaxare și business ale hotelului. Un scurt info-tur îți permite familiarizarea cu conceptul Nymphea Spa, în ”buzunarele” căruia se află o listă variată de proceduri și terapii care contribuie la refacerea organismului și la trezirea tuturor simțurilor. Meniul Spa include pachetele de întreținere Sundări respectiv VitaMan, dar și pachete medicale de ozonoterapie ori hidrocolonterapie. Pe segmentul de masaje oferta este foarte variată - de la cel suedez, cu pietre vulcanice, australian, până la cele faciale, a mâinilor și picioarelor, măști corporale etc. ”Nymphea Spa e o prefață dar în același timp și o invitație deschisă către rafinament și puritate, o evadare din spațiul citadin într-un peisaj natural magic.\r\n\r\nNe putem concentra pe oaspeții noștri și putem adapta serviciile resortului într-un mod foarte flexibil. Filozofia și managementul nostru sunt pliate pe dorințele clienților ce caută spații mari, aerisite, dar și intimitate. Se spune că detaliile fac diferența și din această cauză încercăm în fiecare zi să personalizăm ofertele noastre. Deci cu ce ne ocupăm noi ? Am putea spune că suntem acei furnizori ai “microplăcerii”, al adevăratei aventuri, care-ți pot transforma câteva ore într-o adevărată vacanță de neuitat. Încă de la început a fost pentru firma noastră o provocare să manageriem o asemenea investiție” - spune Alex Popescu, Partner Total Hospitality Services.\r\nDin celelalte expresii care contribuie la valorizarea conceptului Nymphea SPA, vom amintit; de restaurantul în care vă veți întâlni cu creațiile cunoscutului șef Antonio Passarelli.\r\n\r\nEl este generos organizat cu 70 de locuri în interior, la care se adaugă încă 150 repartizate în trei săli cu vedere spre lac, dar și o terasă cu 50 de locuri. De centrul de conferințe multifuncțional, care deține în total 170 de locuri ( în cel mai avantajos aranjament), ambele locuri excelente pentru organizare de evenimente de familie sau corporate. Și, bineînțeles, de hotelul Vila 23 Snagov ce și-a reinventat spațiile de cazare în 33 de camere cu paturi matrimoniale ori twin, respectiv 4 apartamente. Concepte îndrăznețe de design cromatic și pentru mobilier, sunt puse în valoare de tehnologii și facilități de ultimă oră. Atmosfera este animată de magia peisajului natural.\r\n\r\nGURA HUMORULUI\r\nBest Western, terapii cu metale prețioase\r\n\r\nHotelul Best Western de la Gura Humorului și-a îmbogățit oferta prin modernizarea Centrului ”Vitality Spa”. După un amplu proces de renovare și modernizare, desfășurat pe parcursul a câtorva luni, Vitality Spa se prezintă acum, mult mai atrăgător prin centrul de relaxare și energizare. Pe lângă serviciile de care clienții hotelului Best Western Bucovina, se puteau bucura până acum (sauna finlandeză, sauna umedă și jacuzzi ) au mai fost adăugate, un bazin cu apă sărată adusă de la salina Cacica, o cameră în care a fost amenajată o salină de suprafață, cu sare de la Salina Praid, un cabinet pentru hidro-aroma terapie, două cabinete etc. Procedurile, integrate în ritualuri de Spa, includ produse cosmetice exclusiviste, dedicate tratamentelor corporale din centrele SPA. Produsele 100 % naturale și vegetale, marca ,,La Cremerie\" și \"Natural Bucovinean\", marcă locală, desfătă simțurile clienților. \"Vitality Spa\" propune tratamente corporale speciale, cum ar fi: pentru tonifiere și reechilibrare energetică \"Golden Therapy\", cu metale prețioase, tratament anti age \"In Vino Iuvenes\", cu must de struguri, tratament pentru relaxare și vitalizare, \"Nature\'s Vitality\", cu may chang și alte ritualuri menite să readucă armonia trup-minte-suflet. Prin această investiție, Best Western Bucovina, devine unul dintre cele mai ofertante hoteluri de 4 stele din nordul Moldovei, în ceea ce priveşte, diversitatea serviciilor oferite și a opțiunilor de relaxare și divertisment - apreciază directorul de vânzări și marketing Doina Prosciuc.\r\n\r\nANGELA SIMION, ALEX BARBU & ION BADEA','Hotel Wine Spa Riserva Ramada, INDUSTRIA HOTELIERA nr.131','','inherit','closed','closed','','3599-revision-v1','','','2016-08-07 13:05:03','2016-08-07 11:05:03','',3599,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2016/08/07/3599-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4825,1,'2016-08-07 13:08:24','2016-08-07 11:08:24','Golden Eagle Luxury Train care derulează proiectul de călătorie ”Comorile Persiei”, a străbătut țara noastră, la începutul acestei luni.\r\n\r\n[gallery ids=\"3935,3937,3938\"]\r\nTrenul, care a avut la bord 43 de turiști din SUA, din comunitatea Universității Stanford, a oprit în Gara Brașov de unde s-au făcut scurte vizite în oraș, la Sighișoara și Castelul Bran.

Referindu-se la această schimbare Gheorghe Răcaru, directorul general al Blue Air a subliniat că: „Operarea zborurilor pe aeroporturi principale face parte din conceptul de smart flying al Blue Air, fapt ce diferențiază compania de cele de tip low-cost. Este important de știut de către pasagerii care deja și-au cumpărat bilete de călătorie pentru Torino-Cuneo că orarul de zbor nu se va modifica, ci doar vor ajunge mult mai repede în orașul de destinație. Torino – Caselle reprezintă pentru Blue Air prima bază operațională externă din Italia de pe care operăm zboruri către Catania, Bari, Ibitza, precum și ruta Catania – Bari (via Torino-Caselle)”.\r\nDe asemenea managementul companiei a mai anunțat introducerea, de la începutul lunii, meniuri calde gratuite pentru zborurile spre Barcelona și Madrid. Pasagerii pot putea alege între două meniuri pe bază de pui sau vită. Introducerea noului serviciu subliniază că, în afara prețurilor accesibile, oferta Blue Air se înscrie cu succes în categoria companiilor full-service.','Tren de lux spre ”Comorile Persiei”, TRANSPORTURI nr.134','','inherit','closed','closed','','3896-revision-v1','','','2016-08-07 13:08:24','2016-08-07 11:08:24','',3896,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2016/08/07/3896-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4828,1,'2016-08-07 13:11:52','2016-08-07 11:11:52','Hotelul Inter-Continental din București a găzduit o reuniune cu travel agenți și jurnaliști de turism, organizată de specialiștii singaporezi.

\r\n \r\nChristian Tour: țintă Ungaria, Serbia și Polonia\r\n
\r\n
Succesul înregistrat de Christian Tour în străinătate - Turcia, Grecia, Spania și Republica Moldova - determină cel mai mare touroperator de chartere din România să se extindă pe noi piețe din Europa Centrală și de Est. “Am început să investim în agenţii de turism din străinătate încă din 2012, când a apărut Memento Turcia, urmat la scurt timp de Memento Spania. La începutul lui 2014, am intrat pe piaţa hotelieră din Grecia, iar, la finele aceluiași an, am deschis la Chișinău, prima agenție sub brandul Christian Tour din afara granițelor României. Vor urma filiale în Ungaria, Serbia și Polonia, și proiectăm curse charter din aceste țări către Grecia, Turcia, Spania” - a declarat Cristian Pandel, fondator și acționar majoritar al Christian Tour.
\r\n“În această vară s-au derulat primele curse charter cu plecare din Chișinău către Grecia. Succesul consemnat (grade de ocupare de peste 90%) ne-a convins să ne orientăm politica de extindere și în alte țări din regiune” - a mai adăugat Marius Pandel, CEO Christian Tour.\r\nCroaziere.net - 10 ANI\r\n\r\n
ADRIAN VOICAN: ”Apetitul turistic al românilor s-a dublat!”\r\n\r\n
Cel mai important aport la creșterea consumului turistic l-au avut în ultimul deceniu persoanele cu vârstă de peste 55 de ani (peste 35%), urmate de „aspiranți” (26-35 ani) cu 21%, se arată într-un studiu realizat de tur-operatorul Bibi Touring. Totodată, în ultimii 10 ani, persoanele cu venituri mici, sub 200 euro/persoana, au contribuit cu cea mai mare creștere la consumul turistic, respectiv cu 17%, fapt datorat ofertelor speciale de tipul „Înscrieri Timpurii”, oferte care nu existau înainte.
\r\nConsumul intern rămane la pragul de 50% din populație, dar se dezvoltă accelerat turismul extern și vacanțele mixte. Apetitul românilor pentru vacanțele externe a crescut de peste două ori și jumătate în ultimii 10 ani, ajungând la 24% în 2014. Unul din trei români apelează la serviciile unei agenții de turism pentru a cumpăra o vacanță. A disparut cererea pentru hotelurile de 1 stea dar s-a triplat, în schimb, cea pentru 4 și 5 stele - subliniază directorul general Adrian Voican, inițiatorul sondajului.
\r\nMOBIL SAU TABLETA ?
\r\nConform unei analize realizate de Vola.ro, unul dintre cele mai importante portaluri de turism din Romania, peste 47% dintre românii care au căutat vacanțe sau bilete de avion online de la începutul acestui an au folosit un dispozitiv mobil. Procentul este aproape dublu față de anul trecut. „Căutările și achizițiile de pe mobil nu mai reprezintă o nișa, ci o preferință clară, atunci când vine vorba de planificarea vacanțelor. Mobilul este folosit în primul rând pentru research, iar media de căutari este chiar mai mare decât în cazul userilor care intră de pe desktop” - a declarat Manuela Melinescu, marketing manager Vola.ro. O alta dovadă a tehnologizării este că, de la începutul acestui an, peste 64% dintre cei care au cumpărat produse turistice au ales să plătească online cu cardul.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nO metodă de plată inedită a prins de asemenea destul de bine în rândul pasionațiilor de călătorii: criptomoneda BitCoin. În doar câteva luni pe Vola.ro se poate observa că prin acest sistem de plată, valoarea coșului de cumpărături este mult mai ridicată, în medie de 420 de euro.','LONELY PLANET: Transilvania este favorita 2016, TRAVEL nr.140','','inherit','closed','closed','','4407-revision-v1','','','2016-08-07 13:18:32','2016-08-07 11:18:32','',4407,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2016/08/07/4407-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4837,1,'2016-08-07 13:23:28','2016-08-07 11:23:28','Pe străzi zeci de grupuri de turiști străini. O mare parte se află în tururi ghidate și provin de pe vasele de croazieră dunărene. Alții au venit în grup sau individual ca să se dumirească, indiferent că ninge, plouă sau că sunt 40 de grade la umbră -, de ce este așa de specială cetatea Veliko Târnovo!\r\n\r\n
Te intersectezi cu ei. Și te trezești punându-ți aceeași întrebare! Prima observație. Nu numai cetatea ci întreg orașul cu peste 70.000 de locuitori, dintre care vreo 20.000 sunt studenți -, reprezintă un magnet turistic care a fost modelat cu mare atenție de-a lungul deceniilor de către administrația turistică bulgară. Sigur, prima recomandare este să vizitezi cetatea. Pe parcursul timpului alocat vei afla că Veliko Târnovo înseamnă Marele Tron, nume care a fost dat în perioada Primului Țarat Bulgar (680-1018). Dar așezarea este mult mai veche, firește, și are tangență cu antichitatea și împăratul Traian care a dezvoltat în zonă așezarea Nikopolis ad Istrum. Era puternică degrabă ce își bătea monedă proprie, iar pentru divertisment organiza lupte de gladiatori. Ruinele pot fi vizitate la câțiva kilometri de Veliko. Care a fost și capitală a Bulgariei între secolele XII și XIV începând cu anul 1187. Din cetatea cu drumuri de acces pietruite ca în vechime, poți lesne observa silueta Palatului Țarului și a Patriarhiei Bulgariei, restaurate și accesibile vizitatorilor. Ca mai peste tot otomanii au trecut prin tăvălugul războaielor și aceste locuri, stopând pentru aproape 480 de ani înflorirea culturală și economică. Cu toate acestea la 1878 după Eliberare la Veliko (ce pe atunci se numea Tarrnovgrad) a fost întocmită prima Constituție a țării.La acea vreme era una dintre cele mai democratice din Europa. Tot aici, un an mai târziu, Alexander Battenberg a fost ales Cneaz, șef al statului bulgar, după care Capitala s-a mutat la Sofia. Și, gata, cu istoria !\r\n

Stop cadru călare !
\r\nCetatea de la Veliko Târnovo este restaurată cu atenție. Ca în multe altele și în interiorul acesteia, cățărată pe un vârf de deal, se află o biserică interesantă. E înconjurată de mai multe suporturi cu clopote care amintesc de vechile invazii ce erau alarmate de aici, iar în interior se află mai multe fresce și picturi, realizate într-un stil modern, șocant pentru cei obișnuiți cu liniile canonice, dar pline de mesaj și bun gust. Ea sugerează că în interiorul zidurilor a activat cândva Școala de pictură Târnovo - întemeiată ca și cea de Literatură de către Patriarhii Evtimii și Teodosii Târnovski -, a cărei valoare era recunoscută pe plan european. Pe parcursul turului veți putea admira sculpturi și elemente de heraldică specifice, reprezentative pentru evoluția și restaurarea cetății. Dacă vrei să te dai mare și rege, ai ocazia să te imortalizezi, pe un cal de lemn, îmbrăcat și înarmat în stilul epocii. Recuzită e oferită contra-cost firește, de către animatori întreprinzători. De la ei aflăm că în interiorul cetății au loc în fiecare an festivaluri culturale, care reînvie o parte din tradițiile artistice și meșteșugărești ale bulgarilor.
\r\nUn titlu de la IHRA
\r\nO pauză de cafea e binemeritată. Dar pentru a înțelege viața și vibrația zidurilor înghețate de istorie, luați-o din loc, direct spre Centru Multimedia de Informare Turistică. Jumătate muzeu, jumătate Centru de informare, un mariaj foarte potrivit proiectat și finalizat cu finanțare europeană. La ghișeul de intrare se află pliante și broșuri în toate limbile de circulație internațională, dar și în română, semn că pe aici trec anual zeci de mii de vecini. Parcurgând sălile cu exponate ești impresionat de statuile realizate din ceară și fibră de sticlă în mărime naturală, care exprimă ipostaze și ritualuri ale istoriei, susținute de motive din muzica originală a formării etnice IRFAN. Urmărind siluetele domnitorilor glorioși de la Târnovo, țarii Kaloyan și Ivan Asen II, pe cea a Reginei Ana-Maria, pe a vicarului papal Cardinalul Leo, ori pe ale nobililor, călugărilor, patriarhilor și meșteșugarilor înțelegi mai profund de ce acest loc a fost numit în istorie ”Orașul regal protejat de Dumnezeu”, ”Regele orașelor”, ”Al doilea Constantinopol”, ”A treia Romă” etc. Și, mai recent, în 2010, titlul de ”Capitală Balcanică a turismului cultural”, acordat de către Asociația Internațională a Hotelierilor și Restauratorilor (IHRA).
\r\nRătăciți-vă prin Mahala
\r\nDacă n-aveți timp trebuie să vă faceți. Pentru experiențe alternative. Bulgarii au conservat foarte bine tot ceea ce dă culoare și specific turistic. Nu ratați, că e păcat, Casele boierilor și bisericile risipite vertical pe Dealul Trapezița. Dar mai ales cartierul meșteșugarilor Assenova Mahala, extins de-a lungul timpului între cele două dealuri marcate de râul Yantra. Dacă tot vorbim de superlative mai aflați că în Evul Mediu, locul a fost recunoscut drept ”cel mai fortificat și cel mai frumos oraș din Hemus” (adică din Balcani). La fel de frumos este și astăzi, cu străzile pietruite ca în vechime (nu ca noi fraierii, care am asfaltat aleile din cetățile medievale de parcă soldații călăreau pe autostrăzi), și în centru comercial aflat pe ”Samovodska Ciarșia” înțesat de magazine cu suveniruri, cosmetice (trandafirul fiind suportul oricărui produs), galerii de artă și bijuterii, bistrouri, restaurante, mici localuri unde ai ocazia să te delectezi la prețuri modice, cu meniuri gustoase. Desfătați-vă măcar cu un desert, marca Veliko: Kadaif și dulceață albă împreună cu o cafea turcească la nisip fierbinte. Ridicați capul, pentru că deasupra voastră veți descoperi case cu arhitectură ce amintește de ceea ce se întâlnea cândva și în Centrul Vechi din București.
\r\nȘi nu uitați de Brâncoveanu
\r\nSpectacolul de noapte de Sunet și Lumini este o altă marcă de referință a turismului de la Veliko Târnovo. Este cea mai impresionantă atracție de seară a orașului care bate de la mare distanță discoteci, baruri, 3 și 4 D și orice! Este și cel mai longeviv spectacol, probabil din Europa, primul producându-se în 1985. Muzica, jocurile de lumini, efectele laserelor care mătură cerul, sunetele clopotelor de la biserici, toate contribuie la o altă recreere a unor fragmente din istoria bulgară. Cel mai bun loc pentru vizionare îl reprezintă restaurantul Yantra. Spectacolele sunt oferite gratuit de sărbători naționale și oficiale ale orașului. În rest sunt organizate contra cost, la cerere, pentru grupuri de vizitatori.
\r\nDacă v-ați proiectat cazarea pentru mai multe zile, o mini-vacanță sau un weekend, vă sugerăm să o faceți la numai 4 kilometri de Veliko. În satul Arbanasi. A fost cândva reședință de vară a boierilor. Un loc nepereche unde se îmbină arhitectura renascentistă cu case-cetăți sufocate de verdeață luxuriantă. Vă mai spunem doar un nume - Constantin Brâncoveanu. Restul descoperiți dumneavoastră.

Centrul medical SanConfind este o investiție românească privată. Aflăm de la gazdele noastre - Ioana Sultanii, specialistă în turism medical și Iuliana Barbu, un om de marketing și relații, ideal pentru acest loc -, că acest Centru deține o bază de tratament balneologic și de recuperare medicală dotată după toate standardele de ultimă oră. Doi dintre cei mai mari producători de echipamente de profil - General Electric și Siemens -, își dispută întâietatea. Imagistica ocupa un rol important în clinică, cei doi lideri mondiali oferind aparatură cu care se pot obține analize specifice (RMN, CT, Ecografii în 3D/4D) etc. Marii câștigători sunt turiștii, clienții, pacienții. \r\n\r\nIată ce am mai aflat de la însoțitorii noștri în cadrul unui infotrip pentru presa de specialitate organizat de Florin Albu, prin compania sa de evenimente Dr. Travel: Centrul medical SanConfind din Poiana Campina oferă servicii de înaltă clasă. Este o imagine nouă a unui spital modern. A fost inaugurat în urmă cu un an, în luna aprilie 2015. Aceast a fost prima etapă de investiții. A doua se află în derulare și are în vedere dotarea și finisarea mai multor spații inclusiv peisagistice. Iar a treia etapă prevede construirea și includerea în circuitul medical și turistic a unui Hotel ce va fi legat printr-un pod de sticlă de actuala bază de tratament. \r\n\r\nBaza de tratament - care reprezintă al doilea punct forte după echipamentele performante - foloseste o apa minerală, printre cele mai sărate din țară, cu o mineralizare total de 321 g/l, captată de la un izvor vechi de sute de ani. Atracția sectorului Balneo sunt cele trei bazine mari cu apă încălzită la 33° C, recirculată și filtrată continuu pentru a fi mereu curată: două pentru adulți, ambele cu adâncimea de 1,2 metri și unul pentru copii, adânc de 0,5 metri. La SanConfind se folosește numai nămol sapropelic adus din Lacul Techirghiol. Nămolul este depozitat în condiții și instalații speciale pentru a-și păstra calitățile terapeutice. Unitatea este dotată, de asemenea, cu doi roboți medicali de excepție, pentru recuperarea membrelor superioare și inferioare, aparat wireless pentru electroterapie, combine inteligente Chattannooga, cadă treflă cu duș sub-acval, căzi speciale pentru băi de plante, cu dioxid de carbón și bule, duș Vichy pentru relaxarea și tonifierea musculaturii, magnetoterapie, shock-wave, deep-oscillation. Al treilea punct forte îl reprezintă Salonul de acupunctură unde se produc veritabile minuni... științifice. Dr. Qu Zonfeng un cunoscut medic chinez apelează la terapiile milenare: acupunctura, ventuze speciale, moxibustion (o metodă care combină acupunctura cu arderea unor plante medicinale rare). \r\n\r\nDar ce spune investitorul despre ce s-a reușit până acum! Ioan Simion este un industriaș, proprietarul companiei Confind care a salvat o parte din fabrica în care se produc și azi componente pentru industria extractivă a petrolului. În ultimii ani a fost convins să investească în agricultură. Ca să spunem așa industria turistică și de sănătate este al treilea segment în care derulează investiții. În final ele vor ajunge la circa 22 milioane de euro. Ultimele două nu sunt încă profitabile dar există un optimism realist că vor ajunge la maturitate și profit. ”Proiectul Centrului medical SanConfind a început cu un Cabinet Stomatologic. Acum el crește fiind susținut din alte investiții profitabile dar și din profitul reinvestit. În curând în Spitalul Centrului medical va funcționa și o farmacie. În principal ne axăm pe pacienții români dar și pe turiștii străini. Am încurajat cele câteva zeci de pensiuni din comună (noi am vizitat ”Casablanca”) să ofere pachete combinate - turism+sănătate+cultură, iar rezultatele încep să se vadă. Credem în dezvoltarea turismului medical și suntem preocupați să oferim servicii de excelență. De aceea căutăm și angajăm specialiști care doresc să lucreze la acest nivel”. Potrivit lui Ioan Simion acum în Centrul Medical lucrează circa 50 de persoane. După finalizarea întregii investiții aici vor fi circa 200-250 de angajați. În ceea ce privește turismul medical au fost deja organizate câteva infotripuri pentru travel agenții români, foarte interesați arătându-se cei de la TUI Center, dar și alte companii ce lucrează pe segmentul balnear. Va urma un infotrip organizat și pentru agenții străine. Cele din Rusia și-au arătat deja interesul. Promovarea se face acum prin pliante și CD-uri, pe internet și Facebook. Se lucrează însă și la dimensionarea unei campanii de imagine care va conduce spre un brand distinct pentru activitățile turistice și hoteliere. Ioan Simion se gândește chiar la configurarea unui ”Drum, balnear, al Sănătății”, care să lege Ploieștiul de Predeal. ”Eu nu mi-am propus să mă bat pe segmentul de turism de sănătate. Țara e mare și e loc pentru toată lumea. Am fost la Viena, la o clinică privată. Avem cu ce să ne comparăm, avem cu ce lucra! Dar trebuie să fim mai agresivi.

On Prahova Valley, in Poiana Câmpina, less than 100 km north of Bucharest, opened about one year ago the Medical Center SanConfind. Here, for the pools with mineral salt waters, a source known since 1510s is being used.
\r\nThe center is a private investment. It offers a SPA treatment concept with medical recovery facilities, using the newest technologies known in the domain. General Electric and Siemens are two of the equipment producers for the most accurate investigations necessary. At this point the second part of the investment plan is ongoing, including the opening of a farmacy inside the hospital. The third step of the project consists in building a hotel that will be connected with the medical centre through a glass passage.”The total investment is estimated at 22 milion euro” – said the business man Ioan Simion, owner of SanConfind.

\r\nHilton Worldwide announced for 2017 the opening of a Hilton Garden Inn Hotel in Romania. This will be located in the area of the historical city centre of Bucharest, in a building listed as historical monument on Doamnei Street.
\r\nThe hotel will be a 4 stars one and will offer 201 rooms. Essam Abouda, operations vicepresident for Eastern Europe, Russia and Turkey of Hilton Worldwide, said that the intention is to open more locations in our country: \"Romania, same as Russia and Turkey, is a growing market in the region I coordinate, with a rising potential for our brands. We intend to expand on the local market with 7 other hotels.\" Hilton Garden Inn is one of the hotel brands of Hilton Worldwide, chain that operates globally over 4600 hotels.
\r\nTHE SUN: ”Don’t you miss Transilvania! ”
\r\nThe jurnalists from The Sun recommend travellers to visit Transilvania, not only to follow the Dracula path, but to enjoy amazing panoramic views, for its castles as in the Harry Potter stories, as well as for its pubs hidden on winding and narrow streets. They remind that Lonely Planet named Transilvania a must visit destination for 2016. The city of Cluj boosts with theaters and art galleries, with great contemporary approach at the multifunctional „Fabrica de pensule”. The jurnalists from The Sun say that a city tour of Cluj should end at the National History Museum where one can admire a medical laboratory and its collection of healing potions. The 14th century Bran Castle, an inspiration source for the residence of Count Dracula in the novel of Bram Stoker, offers impressive views – underline the editors.

\r\nTHE SUN: ”Don’t you miss Transilvania! ”
\r\nThe jurnalists from The Sun recommend travellers to visit Transilvania, not only to follow the Dracula path, but to enjoy amazing panoramic views, for its castles as in the Harry Potter stories, as well as for its pubs hidden on winding and narrow streets. They remind that Lonely Planet named Transilvania a must visit destination for 2016. The city of Cluj boosts with theaters and art galleries, with great contemporary approach at the multifunctional „Fabrica de pensule”. The jurnalists from The Sun say that a city tour of Cluj should end at the National History Museum where one can admire a medical laboratory and its collection of healing potions. The 14th century Bran Castle, an inspiration source for the residence of Count Dracula in the novel of Bram Stoker, offers impressive views – underline the editors.

\r\nMinisterul Culturii și Ministerul Mediului, Apelor și Pădurilor din România au comunicat către Centrul Patrimoniului Mondial de la Paris înscrierea peisajului cultural minier Roșia Montană în lista indicativă a României pentru Patrimoniul Mondial UNESCO. Demersul vine după ce localitatea Roșia Montană, pe o rază de 2 kilometri, a fost clasată ca sit în categoria A, în noua Listă a Monumentelor Istorice.
\r\nPotrivit Ministerului, atributele definitorii ale sitului sunt galeriile miniere - de exploatare, de asistență, de aerisire și de evacuare a apei - excavate începând din perioada romană și continuate în perioada medievală și modernă, peisajul roman de suprafață, peisajul industrial istoric, și târgul minier Roșia Montană. Galeriile săpate în masivele muntoase din jurul localității însumează mai mult de 80 kilometri din care 7 datează din Antichitate, alcătuind cel mai vast și mai important sistem de exploatare minieră cunoscut din lumea romană - precizează specialiștii Ministerul român al Culturii.
\r\nÎn prezent pe Lista Patrimoniului Mondial al UNESCO, alături de Roșia Montană se află: Rezervația Biosferei Delta Dunării (înscrisă în 1991), ansamblul de sate cu biserici fortificate din Transilvania (1993, 1999), Mânăstirea Horezu (1993), bisericile din nordul Moldovei (1993), cetățile dacice de la Orăștie (1999), bisericile maramuresene din lemn (1999) și centrul istoric al orașului Sighișoara (1999).

2 NOUTĂȚI LA BEST WESTERN
\r\nLanțul Best Western care operează pe piața românească 12 unități a lansat în Capitală a doua unitate Best Western Plus (după hotelul Mari Vila).
\r\nBest Western Plus Expocenter este un hotel de 4 stele, amplasat în nordul Capitalei, la numai 12 kilometri de Aeroportul Internațional Henri Coanda și se invecinează cu: Centrul de Expozitii Romexpo, World Trade Center și Parcul Herastrău. Hotelul oferă clienților: 87 de camere (standard, superior, suite, comfort suite), 3 săli de conferință și 2 săli de evenimente elegante, moderne și multifuncționale, împreună cu servicii premium, pentru a face din orice eveniment organizat un succes. ”Restaurantele noastre vă invită la o călătorie culinară, de la preparatele românești din restaurantul Hora, până la rafinamentul bucătăriei internaționale de la Cosmopolitan, totul acompaniat de muzica live. În principal de adresăm segmentului de business dar suntem deschiși la toate tendințele pieței” - ne-a precizat Bianca Sipu, reprezentantul Best Western Plus Expocenter. \r\nPe același segment de brand a fost anunțată o investiție ce merită reținută. Proprietarul Best Western Stil din București, compania Paralela 45 va investi în acest an 250.000 de euro pentru modernizarea hotelului ce oferă 30 de camere.

\r\n\r\n- Considerați că industria turistică românească ar trebui să beneficieze de un tratament economic mai favorabil din partea actualului Guvern. În acest sens ați adresat o Scrisoare deschisă premierului, Guvernului României prin care solicitați reînființarea Ministerului Turismului ca instituție de sine stătătoare. Inițiativa e susținută de o parte dintre cele mai importante organizații și asociații profesionale ori patronale, printre care și Clubul Presei de Turism, reprezentantul FIJET în România! Aveți și un plan de rezervă - eventual un Minister al Turismului și Culturii?\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_4895\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"1538\"]![\"A](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Claudia-Tapardel-3.jpg\")
A Parliamentary Intergroup on Tourism - fostering Europe\'s competitiveness and growth ?[/caption]\r\n\r\n- Claudia Țapardel: În primul rând vă mulțumesc foarte mult pentru sprijin, dumneavoastră și colegilor din FIJET România care au acceptat să dea un semnal puternic Guvernului pentru susținerea turismului românesc. Primul pas l-am făcut împreună și asta este cel mai important. Asociațiile patronale din turism au reacționat, s-au unit și scrisoarea reprezintă o colecție a dorințelor care vin în mod natural din această parte a industriei. Ministerul Turismului este foarte important și cerut de toți oamenii din domeniu. Eu nu voi renunța la reprezentarea corectă a acestui sector în relația cu Guvernul și voi continua să cer tratarea corectă a potențialului turistic al României, inclusiv printr-un buget mai sănătos. Pasul următor este să continuăm seria de solicitări și presiunea. Cred foarte mult că un Pact pentru Turism care să cuprindă inclusiv un Minister al Turismului este necesar pentru perioada următoare. Ministerul Turismului și Culturii este o idee interesantă pe care vă spun sincer că nu am luat-o în calcul, dar vă promit că mă voi gândi și la această posibilitate.\r\n\r\n- Conform Institutului Național de Statistică turismul contribuie la PIB-ul României cu aproximativ 1,8%. În același timp organisme europene ce desfășoară activități similare (Eurostat, Eurobarometru), evaluează procentul la circa 5%? Unde apare diferența?\r\n\r\n- Cea mai mare problemă este că nu avem o raportare unitară în UE în ceea ce privește turismul. Diferența dintre raportări provine din metodologie. Una este contribuția directă a unităților de primire turistică și cu totul alta este contribuția indirectă (în sectorul transporturilor, HORECA, divertisment, etc). Turismul este un sector complex care poate să crească foarte mult o comunitate în integralitatea sa. Cifrele Comisiei dar și de la WTTC sunt foarte clare: turismul contribuie direct și indirect la PIB-ul european în proporție de 10%. Este o piață în creștere atât în Europa dar mai ales în România! Nu uitați că în 2015 suntem pe locul 1 în UE în ceea ce privește creșterea numărului de înnoptări 18%. Am tot vorbit de potențial, de ce putem face, de unde putem ajunge, iată că acum cifrele ne dau dreptate și când spunem că turism românesc are potențial nu avem pur și simplu un discurs triumfalist ci dovezi clare că așa este!\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n- La o recentă Conferință la Nivel Înalt, organizată de Comisia Europeană ce a avut ca subiect “Atragerea de investiții în turism”, subliniați importanța acestui proces pentru reducerea șomajului, crearea de noi locuri de muncă bine plătite dar și pentru susținerea unor cariere de succes în acest sector? Și-ar putea calibra, regla România o parte din politicile economice în această direcție ?\r\n\r\n- Eu sper că da. Conferința la care faceți referire a fost cea mai importantă din acest an pentru că în sfârșit avem semnale bune că din partea Comisiei Europene va exista mai mult sprijin pentru turism. România nu a stat pe loc până acum. Reducerea TVA pentru servicii de turism all-inclusive a fost unul dintre mesajele de încredere din partea Guvernului de atunci și o politică bine setată la nevoile pieței. Da, eu îmi doresc foarte mult să continuăm să investim în pregătirea tinerilor pentru sectorul turismului, să oferim facilități investitorilor care vin cu bani în acest sector și creează locuri de muncă. Din nou, Pactul pentru Turism poate fi o soluție integratoare care să spună clar de ce avem nevoie!\r\n\r\n- Apropo! Într-o scrisoare deschisă adresată președintelui Comisiei Europene Jean-Claude Juncker, alături de europarlamentari din toate grupurile politice, de Secretarul General al OMT Taleb Rifai și împreună cu peste 70 de asociații și organizații turistice din toată Europa, militați pentru organizarea în 2018 a unui An European al Turismului și Patrimoniului Cultural. Ce ar avea de câștigat europenii dar și românii de pe urma acestui mega-eveniment?\r\n\r\n- Când am fost aleasă la conducerea Intergrupului pentru Dezvoltarea Turismului European am ridicat această problemă. Răspunsul la unison a fost DA! Gândiți-vă că în toată Europa și în România vom avea ocazia să ne promovăm valorile turistice, naturale și culturale. Gândiți-vă că alături de Comisia Europeană care trebuie să organizeze cu buget această acțiune, vom reuși să formăm un brand european de turism mai puternic, mai bine legat. Comunitățile cu potențial turistic din România ar putea atrage atenția investitorilor prin evenimente dedicate promovării turistice în cadrul Anului European al Turismului și Patrimoniului Cultural. Din 1990 nu a mai fost organizat un astfel de an. Eu am mare încredere în potențialul unei acțiuni atât de mari pentru turism!\r\n\r\n- Pentru promovarea inițiativelor aveți nevoie mai ales de sprijinul presei de turism. Cât de diferit este modul de lucru, de informare și colaborare de la Bruxelles în comparație cu cel de la București?\r\n\r\n- Presa de turism din România este specială. Sunteți cel mai pasionat grup pe care l-am întâlnit în acest domeniu și vă spun sincer că apreciez în mod deosebit ce faceți pentru promovarea turistică a României, în țară și în străinătate. Este dificil pentru presa din România să fie prezentă la toate evenimentele pe care le organizez în turism și nu numai. Aici remarc o diferență, presa din Bruxelles, presa de specialitate este interesată de aceste evenimente, rostogolește mesajele pe care atât eu cât și colegii mei le transmitem în aceste întâlniri. Altfel nu aș vrea să creadă cineva că este o diferență de profesionalism între cele două. Interesul presei de specialitate, europene este într-adevăr mai ridicat pentru subiecte de nișă, în timp ce o parte mare a presei românești urmărește senzaționalul.\r\n\r\n- Ne preocupă foarte mult promovarea României în spațiul european și internațional. La ce resurse încă nevalorificate poate apela țara noastră pentru a se poziționa mult mai puternic pe piața turistică?\r\n\r\n- Sunt atât de multe. Am organizat la Bruxelles un eveniment foarte frumos Green and Blue Tourism, ocazie cu care am promovat Delta Dunării și Litoralul românesc. Încep de aici. Delta nu este valorificată la justa valoare. Suntem încă la început acolo. Litoralul, mai ales în Sud are nevoie de investiții masive și poate concura cu cele mai atractive locuri de același tip din Europa, cel puțin 3 luni pe an.\r\nTurismul balnear din România nu ajunge la 5% din potențialul pe care îl are. Studiile spun că 33% din apele termale și minerale din Europa sunt, unde credeți? În România! Cu toate acestea avem stațiuni montane sărăcite, lăsate într-o stare incredibilă. Pe de altă parte în România sunt și investiții mamut, cum este complexul de lângă București, bazate exclusiv pe potențialul termal. Deci lucrurile se mișcă.\r\nAlte zone care ar putea crește în perioada următoare ar fi pe turismul medical, de frumusețe, avem la Constanța spre exemplu o afacere de familie care stârnește invidia multor companii internaționale, Careless Beauty, care se laudă cu produse și servicii de îngrijire a tenului foarte căutate.\r\n\r\n- Europa este prima putere mondială în sectorul turistic. Ea se promovează prin branduri naționale. Sunteți unul dintre susținătorii necesității promovării unui brand turistic, o ”pălărie comună” ce se numește „Destination Europe”. Prin ce resurse financiare va fi susținută această campanie în 2016?\r\n\r\n- Bugetul pe 2016 este îmbogățit cu acest proiect pilot pe care l-am propus anul trecut. Suma este de jumătate de milion de euro. Am încredere că proiectul pilot va fi un succes și atunci, anual, vom avea un capitol bugetar dedicat promovării brandului turistic european la care și România să fie conectată.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Interviu cu Claudia Tapardel, INTERVIU nr.145','','publish','open','open','','interviu-cu-claudia-tapardel-interviu-nr-145','','','2016-09-01 12:19:58','2016-09-01 10:19:58','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=4853',0,'post','',0),(4916,1,'2016-09-01 12:19:58','2016-09-01 10:19:58','CLAUDIA ȚAPARDEL: ”Destination Europe” este o pălărie șic pentru promovarea unui brand turistic comun !”\r\n\r\nEuroparlamentar român din vara anului 2014.

Am tot vorbit de potențial, de ce putem face, de unde putem ajunge, iată că acum cifrele ne dau dreptate și când spunem că turism românesc are potențial nu avem pur și simplu un discurs triumfalist ci dovezi clare că așa este!\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n- La o recentă Conferință la Nivel Înalt, organizată de Comisia Europeană ce a avut ca subiect “Atragerea de investiții în turism”, subliniați importanța acestui proces pentru reducerea șomajului, crearea de noi locuri de muncă bine plătite dar și pentru susținerea unor cariere de succes în acest sector? Și-ar putea calibra, regla România o parte din politicile economice în această direcție ?\r\n\r\n- Eu sper că da. Conferința la care faceți referire a fost cea mai importantă din acest an pentru că în sfârșit avem semnale bune că din partea Comisiei Europene va exista mai mult sprijin pentru turism. România nu a stat pe loc până acum. Reducerea TVA pentru servicii de turism all-inclusive a fost unul dintre mesajele de încredere din partea Guvernului de atunci și o politică bine setată la nevoile pieței. Da, eu îmi doresc foarte mult să continuăm să investim în pregătirea tinerilor pentru sectorul turismului, să oferim facilități investitorilor care vin cu bani în acest sector și creează locuri de muncă. Din nou, Pactul pentru Turism poate fi o soluție integratoare care să spună clar de ce avem nevoie!\r\n\r\n- Apropo! Într-o scrisoare deschisă adresată președintelui Comisiei Europene Jean-Claude Juncker, alături de europarlamentari din toate grupurile politice, de Secretarul General al OMT Taleb Rifai și împreună cu peste 70 de asociații și organizații turistice din toată Europa, militați pentru organizarea în 2018 a unui An European al Turismului și Patrimoniului Cultural. Ce ar avea de câștigat europenii dar și românii de pe urma acestui mega-eveniment?\r\n\r\n- Când am fost aleasă la conducerea Intergrupului pentru Dezvoltarea Turismului European am ridicat această problemă. Răspunsul la unison a fost DA! Gândiți-vă că în toată Europa și în România vom avea ocazia să ne promovăm valorile turistice, naturale și culturale. Gândiți-vă că alături de Comisia Europeană care trebuie să organizeze cu buget această acțiune, vom reuși să formăm un brand european de turism mai puternic, mai bine legat. Comunitățile cu potențial turistic din România ar putea atrage atenția investitorilor prin evenimente dedicate promovării turistice în cadrul Anului European al Turismului și Patrimoniului Cultural. Din 1990 nu a mai fost organizat un astfel de an. Eu am mare încredere în potențialul unei acțiuni atât de mari pentru turism!\r\n\r\n- Pentru promovarea inițiativelor aveți nevoie mai ales de sprijinul presei de turism. Cât de diferit este modul de lucru, de informare și colaborare de la Bruxelles în comparație cu cel de la București?\r\n\r\n- Presa de turism din România este specială. Sunteți cel mai pasionat grup pe care l-am întâlnit în acest domeniu și vă spun sincer că apreciez în mod deosebit ce faceți pentru promovarea turistică a României, în țară și în străinătate. Este dificil pentru presa din România să fie prezentă la toate evenimentele pe care le organizez în turism și nu numai. Aici remarc o diferență, presa din Bruxelles, presa de specialitate este interesată de aceste evenimente, rostogolește mesajele pe care atât eu cât și colegii mei le transmitem în aceste întâlniri. Altfel nu aș vrea să creadă cineva că este o diferență de profesionalism între cele două. Interesul presei de specialitate, europene este într-adevăr mai ridicat pentru subiecte de nișă, în timp ce o parte mare a presei românești urmărește senzaționalul.\r\n\r\n- Ne preocupă foarte mult promovarea României în spațiul european și internațional. La ce resurse încă nevalorificate poate apela țara noastră pentru a se poziționa mult mai puternic pe piața turistică?\r\n\r\n- Sunt atât de multe. Am organizat la Bruxelles un eveniment foarte frumos Green and Blue Tourism, ocazie cu care am promovat Delta Dunării și Litoralul românesc. Încep de aici. Delta nu este valorificată la justa valoare. Suntem încă la început acolo. Litoralul, mai ales în Sud are nevoie de investiții masive și poate concura cu cele mai atractive locuri de același tip din Europa, cel puțin 3 luni pe an.\r\nTurismul balnear din România nu ajunge la 5% din potențialul pe care îl are. Studiile spun că 33% din apele termale și minerale din Europa sunt, unde credeți? În România! Cu toate acestea avem stațiuni montane sărăcite, lăsate într-o stare incredibilă. Pe de altă parte în România sunt și investiții mamut, cum este complexul de lângă București, bazate exclusiv pe potențialul termal.

Prin ce resurse financiare va fi susținută această campanie în 2016?\r\n\r\n- Bugetul pe 2016 este îmbogățit cu acest proiect pilot pe care l-am propus anul trecut.

Parte din Grupul Socialiștilor și Democraților (S&D). O tînără de 30 de ani, ambițioasă. Raportor pe 5 proiecte și peste 180 de rapoarte și amendamente depuse. Nominalizată MEP Awards 2016, la categoria Turism, de către The Parliament Magazine. Copreședinta Intergrupului pentru Dezvoltarea Turismului European și Patrimoniu Cultural pentru a cărui înființare a militat în această legislatură.\r\n\r\n- Considerați că industria turistică românească ar trebui să beneficieze de un tratament economic mai favorabil din partea actualului Guvern. În acest sens ați adresat o Scrisoare deschisă premierului, Guvernului României prin care solicitați reînființarea Ministerului Turismului ca instituție de sine stătătoare. Inițiativa e susținută de o parte dintre cele mai importante organizații și asociații profesionale ori patronale, printre care și Clubul Presei de Turism, reprezentantul FIJET în România! Aveți și un plan de rezervă - eventual un Minister al Turismului și Culturii?\r\n\r\n- Claudia Țapardel: În primul rând vă mulțumesc foarte mult pentru sprijin, dumneavoastră și colegilor din FIJET România care au acceptat să dea un semnal puternic Guvernului pentru susținerea turismului românesc. Primul pas l-am făcut împreună și asta este cel mai important. Asociațiile patronale din turism au reacționat, s-au unit și scrisoarea reprezintă o colecție a dorințelor care vin în mod natural din această parte a industriei. Ministerul Turismului este foarte important și cerut de toți oamenii din domeniu. Eu nu voi renunța la reprezentarea corectă a acestui sector în relația cu Guvernul și voi continua să cer tratarea corectă a potențialului turistic al României, inclusiv printr-un buget mai sănătos. Pasul următor este să continuăm seria de solicitări și presiunea. Cred foarte mult că un Pact pentru Turism care să cuprindă inclusiv un Minister al Turismului este necesar pentru perioada următoare. Ministerul Turismului și Culturii este o idee interesantă pe care vă spun sincer că nu am luat-o în calcul, dar vă promit că mă voi gândi și la această posibilitate.\r\n\r\n- Conform Institutului Național de Statistică turismul contribuie la PIB-ul României cu aproximativ 1,8%. În același timp organisme europene ce desfășoară activități similare (Eurostat, Eurobarometru), evaluează procentul la circa 5%? Unde apare diferența?\r\n\r\n- Cea mai mare problemă este că nu avem o raportare unitară în UE în ceea ce privește turismul. Diferența dintre raportări provine din metodologie. Una este contribuția directă a unităților de primire turistică și cu totul alta este contribuția indirectă (în sectorul transporturilor, HORECA, divertisment, etc). Turismul este un sector complex care poate să crească foarte mult o comunitate în integralitatea sa. Cifrele Comisiei dar și de la WTTC sunt foarte clare: turismul contribuie direct și indirect la PIB-ul european în proporție de 10%. Este o piață în creștere atât în Europa dar mai ales în România! Nu uitați că în 2015 suntem pe locul 1 în UE în ceea ce privește creșterea numărului de înnoptări 18%.

În zestrea naturală e inclusă Etna, vulcan la a cărui bază se desfășoară covoare fertile de verdeață, livezi roditoare de citrice, migdali și măslini. Și istoria și-a făcut de cap aici unde a lăsat numeroase vestigii artitectonice și urbanistice. Catania a fost colonie greacă, apoi romană, arabă, normandă și chiar bizantină. Întregul melanj cultural s-a născut, a murit, apoi a renăscut sub cenușa Etnei care a măturat orașul în 1669 și în 1693. Arhitectul Giovanni Battista Vaccarini a fost magicianul care i-a redat strălucirea. Rezultatul? O bijuterie urbană care îmbină vechiul cu noul, arterele aerisite cu străduțele înguste pe care de abia își fac loc furgonete care asigură aprovizionarea micilor magazine alimentare.

Până și Etna și-a domolit ardoarea și străjuiește parcă liniștea orașului. Peste 800.000 de locuitori își trăiesc viața în ritmul și spațiul marcat de prezența marelui Bellini, a elefantului și fântânii din Piața Domului, de Catedrală, de amfiteatrul roman, teatrul grec, grădina botanică, celebra Piață de pește - care apare și dispare în fiecare zi în același loc, un ritual ce datează de sute de ani și atrage mii de turiști -, Castelul Ursino, Poarta Uzeda, Palatul Biscari și magnifică prin simplitate Poarta Garibaldi.

Chiar pe Via Vittorio Emanuele într-un colț al pieții centrale se bat pe clienți în fiecare zi două vehiculele a două City Tour-uri, care costă invariabil doar 5 euro de persoană. Cu primul, autobuzul supraetajat, aveți ocazia să faceți marele circuit al orașului modern, să străbateți bulevarde, să vă încântați ochii cu fântâni și sculpturi clasice. Firește, puteți coborî oriunde vă place, căci tichetul este valabil o zi întreagă. Ghidajul este asigurat în 5 limbi așa că veți deveni tobă de istorie și cultură italiană. La fel se întâmplă și cu Trenulețul turistic. O ia la vale și la deal pe străduțe înguste accesibile în principal pietonilor. Din acest vehicul nu prea ai unde să te dai jos pentru că spațiile sunt foarte strânse iar dacă vreți și adrenalină o s-o aveți din plin mai ales la intersecții și luatul curbelor. Nu ratați și spectacolul așaziselor certuri dintre șoferi care, chipurile se luptă pentru a convinge turiștii să urce mai întâi în mijlocul lor de transport. Comedia dell arte, comedia dell turismo, nu contează, e doar un spectacol de care se bucură toată lumea într-o zi însorită de primăvară. Profitați din plin de ofertă. Înainte, între tururi, sau după aceea, nu ratați un capucino la una din multele terase din Piața Domului. Ca din întâmplare un băiat de prăvălie, uneori chiar un român, îi dă drumul la povestea cu micul elefant din Piața Domului, cocoțat pe un piedestal, ce ține în spate un obelisc egiptean. Statueta acestuia are peste două mii de ani vechime și provine dintr-un templu oriental. Povestea amintește că magul Eliodor l-ar fi călărit în lupta sa împotriva sfântului episcop Leon, în care a fost înfrânt. Statuia micului pachiderm a fost găsită și recuperată de către arhitectul Vaccarini prin anii 1700. Inspirat de Fântână lui Bernini de la Roma el a creat la rândul său o fântână ce domină Piața Domului. În centrul ei se află coloana și elefantul respectiv, devenit emblemă dar și loc de referință pentru întâlnirea îndrăgostiților.
\r\nDacă treceți numai pentru o zi prin Catania, puteți să acoperiți toate aceste repere. Mai ales că în multe muzee intrarea este gratuită iar în restaurante lumea se mișcă repede și cu talent. Bacșiș-ul există și se dă cu plăcere pentru că turistul apreciază timpul din care vrea să stoarcă maximum posibil. Nu poți părăsi Catania, orașul subjugat memoriei marelui compozitor Bellini, fără a gusta un preparat gastronomic... muzical. ”Paste alla Norma” este un omagiu adus de localnici celebrei opere. Felul de mâncare are la bază vinete trase la tigaie, un sos picant de roșii și brânză sărată rasă, totul dat la cuptor. Nu știu dacă se și fredonează ceva... Iar dacă nu vă prea este foame porniți întro plimbare pe celebra Via Etnea, admirați vitrinele și prețurile foarte prietenioase, sau opriți-vă la o înghețată de lămâie sau portocale la cofetăria ”Savia”, emblema dulce de peste un secol a Cataniei.
\r\nDar dacă v-ați făcut planuri să stați în Catania mai multe zile nu ratați o ”passeggiata” de-a lungul țărmului pentru a atinge Riviera Ciclopilor și Castelul Normand. Formațiunile stâncoase, care zvânesc din apele mării create de erupțiile vulcanice și șlefuite de vânturile puternice, concurează operele de artă. Cei mai mulți vin aici pentru a asculta povestea lui Polifem orbit de către Ulise. Acesta ar fi aruncat cu stâncile după legendarul erou. Cel mai înalt dintre ciclopi are circa 70 de metri. Peisajul este dominat de silueta Castelului construit în secolul al XI-lea din... piatră vulcanică. Dar și de o impresionantă galerie cu sculpturi moderne, ce poartă semnatura unor cunscuți artiști. Loc de întâlnire al turiștilor, acesta este revendicat la apusul soarelui de către perechi de îndrăgostiți. Magia merge mai departe!

Peisajul este dominat de silueta Castelului construit în secolul al XI-lea din... piatră vulcanică. Dar și de o impresionantă galerie cu sculpturi moderne, ce poartă semnatura unor cunscuți artiști. Loc de întâlnire al turiștilor, acesta este revendicat la apusul soarelui de către perechi de îndrăgostiți. Magia merge mai departe!

CLINCENI - 110 ani de la un record mondial
\r\n110 ani de când Traian Vuia a zburat cu un aparat mai greu decât aerul, înregistrând un record mondial. Evenimentul a fost marcat la aeroportul din Clinceni în prezența unor personalități ale aerului dar și a numeroși spectatori care au venit aici pentru a urmări un spectacol aviatic de excepție.

El a avut în centrul său un aparat de zbor identic cu cel creat de Vuia, construit de către o echipă de piloți români pe parcursul a nouă luni. ”Am folosit la demonstrații planoarele și avioanele utilizate de școală pentru antrenament și performanță. Am reușit să arătăm publicului o replică la scară reală a avionului lui Vuia, cel care a zburat cu mijloace proprii acum 110 ani” - declara George Rotaru, directorul Aeroclubului României. Cu ocazia evenimentului gazdele au organizat și o tombolă, la care premiile au constat în plimbări de agrement cu avioane ultraușoare.
\r\nTAP PORTUGAL s-a retras
\r\nDe la sfârșitul lunii martie compania aeriana TAP Portugal a decis suspendarea operării directe pe relația București – Lisabona, pentru o perioadă de timp nedefinită. TAP era singura care zbura între România și Portugalia. „Pentru a îmbunătați profitabilitatea, TAP Portugal și-a reorganizat operațiunile prin suspendarea, din 27 martie, a unor rute mai puțin rentabile. Prin urmare am sistat zborurile de la Lisabona spre Bogota/Panama, Gothenburg, Hannover, Zagreb, Budapesta și București” - se arată într-un comunicat distribuit pe piața românească.

Așa o consemnează și prima atestare documentară. În urmă cu 100 de ani la Poiana Câmpina era folosit pentru tratament un izvor cu apă sărată.
\n
Așezarea e lipită de Câmpina mult mai cunoscută însă din punct de vedere turistic firește, datorită misteriosului castel al familiei Hasdeu dar și a industriilor care au fost hrănite cu... petrol. Oamenii locului, împreună cu o armată de cadre medicale, cred însă că viitorul localității Poiana Câmpina este deja marcat de sare și industria sănătății. Ambele vor servi setea turiștilor moderni, în parte documentați în legătură cu beneficiile oferite de un Centru medical balnear ca SanConfind.
\n\nNe aflăm pe Valea Prahovei la mai puțin de 100 de kilometri de București. Centrul medical SanConfind este o investiție românească privată. Aflăm de la gazdele noastre - Ioana Sultanii, specialistă în turism medical și Iuliana Barbu, un om de marketing și relații, ideal pentru acest loc -, că acest Centru deține o bază de tratament balneologic și de recuperare medicală dotată după toate standardele de ultimă oră. Doi dintre cei mai mari producători de echipamente de profil - General Electric și Siemens -, își dispută întâietatea. Imagistica ocupa un rol important în clinică, cei doi lideri mondiali oferind aparatură cu care se pot obține analize specifice (RMN, CT, Ecografii în 3D/4D) etc. Marii câștigători sunt turiștii, clienții, pacienții. \n\nIată ce am mai aflat de la însoțitorii noștri în cadrul unui infotrip pentru presa de specialitate organizat de Florin Albu, prin compania sa de evenimente Dr. Travel: Centrul medical SanConfind din Poiana Campina oferă servicii de înaltă clasă. Este o imagine nouă a unui spital modern. A fost inaugurat în urmă cu un an, în luna aprilie 2015. Aceast a fost prima etapă de investiții. A doua se află în derulare și are în vedere dotarea și finisarea mai multor spații inclusiv peisagistice. Iar a treia etapă prevede construirea și includerea în circuitul medical și turistic a unui Hotel ce va fi legat printr-un pod de sticlă de actuala bază de tratament. \n\nBaza de tratament - care reprezintă al doilea punct forte după echipamentele performante - foloseste o apa minerală, printre cele mai sărate din țară, cu o mineralizare total de 321 g/l, captată de la un izvor vechi de sute de ani. Atracția sectorului Balneo sunt cele trei bazine mari cu apă încălzită la 33° C, recirculată și filtrată continuu pentru a fi mereu curată: două pentru adulți, ambele cu adâncimea de 1,2 metri și unul pentru copii, adânc de 0,5 metri. La SanConfind se folosește numai nămol sapropelic adus din Lacul Techirghiol. Nămolul este depozitat în condiții și instalații speciale pentru a-și păstra calitățile terapeutice.

Al treilea punct forte îl reprezintă Salonul de acupunctură unde se produc veritabile minuni... științifice. Dr. Qu Zonfeng un cunoscut medic chinez apelează la terapiile milenare: acupunctura, ventuze speciale, moxibustion (o metodă care combină acupunctura cu arderea unor plante medicinale rare). \n\nDar ce spune investitorul despre ce s-a reușit până acum! Ioan Simion este un industriaș, proprietarul companiei Confind care a salvat o parte din fabrica în care se produc și azi componente pentru industria extractivă a petrolului. În ultimii ani a fost convins să investească în agricultură. Ca să spunem așa industria turistică și de sănătate este al treilea segment în care derulează investiții. În final ele vor ajunge la circa 22 milioane de euro. Ultimele două nu sunt încă profitabile dar există un optimism realist că vor ajunge la maturitate și profit. ”Proiectul Centrului medical SanConfind a început cu un Cabinet Stomatologic. Acum el crește fiind susținut din alte investiții profitabile dar și din profitul reinvestit. În curând în Spitalul Centrului medical va funcționa și o farmacie. În principal ne axăm pe pacienții români dar și pe turiștii străini. Am încurajat cele câteva zeci de pensiuni din comună (noi am vizitat ”Casablanca”) să ofere pachete combinate - turism+sănătate+cultură, iar rezultatele încep să se vadă. Credem în dezvoltarea turismului medical și suntem preocupați să oferim servicii de excelență. De aceea căutăm și angajăm specialiști care doresc să lucreze la acest nivel”. Potrivit lui Ioan Simion acum în Centrul Medical lucrează circa 50 de persoane. După finalizarea întregii investiții aici vor fi circa 200-250 de angajați. În ceea ce privește turismul medical au fost deja organizate câteva infotripuri pentru travel agenții români, foarte interesați arătându-se cei de la TUI Center, dar și alte companii ce lucrează pe segmentul balnear. Va urma un infotrip organizat și pentru agenții străine. Cele din Rusia și-au arătat deja interesul. Promovarea se face acum prin pliante și CD-uri, pe internet și Facebook. Se lucrează însă și la dimensionarea unei campanii de imagine care va conduce spre un brand distinct pentru activitățile turistice și hoteliere. Ioan Simion se gândește chiar la configurarea unui ”Drum, balnear, al Sănătății”, care să lege Ploieștiul de Predeal. ”Eu nu mi-am propus să mă bat pe segmentul de turism de sănătate. Țara e mare și e loc pentru toată lumea. Am fost la Viena, la o clinică privată. Avem cu ce să ne comparăm, avem cu ce lucra! Dar trebuie să fim mai agresivi. Ne gândim să înființăm și o Agenție de turism medical.” \n\nAlte informatii găsiți pe site-ul www.sanconfind.ro dar și pe diverse suporturi mass media.\nMARIAN & DOINA CONSTANTINESCU

Așa o consemnează și prima atestare documentară. În urmă cu 100 de ani la Poiana Câmpina era folosit pentru tratament un izvor cu apă sărată.
\r\n
Așezarea e lipită de Câmpina mult mai cunoscută însă din punct de vedere turistic firește, datorită misteriosului castel al familiei Hasdeu dar și a industriilor care au fost hrănite cu... petrol. Oamenii locului, împreună cu o armată de cadre medicale, cred însă că viitorul localității Poiana Câmpina este deja marcat de sare și industria sănătății. Ambele vor servi setea turiștilor moderni, în parte documentați în legătură cu beneficiile oferite de un Centru medical balnear ca SanConfind.
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" size=\"medium\" ids=\"4865,4866,4867,4868,4869,4870,4872,4873\"]\r\n\r\nNe aflăm pe Valea Prahovei la mai puțin de 100 de kilometri de București. Centrul medical SanConfind este o investiție românească privată. Aflăm de la gazdele noastre - Ioana Sultanii, specialistă în turism medical și Iuliana Barbu, un om de marketing și relații, ideal pentru acest loc -, că acest Centru deține o bază de tratament balneologic și de recuperare medicală dotată după toate standardele de ultimă oră. Doi dintre cei mai mari producători de echipamente de profil - General Electric și Siemens -, își dispută întâietatea. Imagistica ocupa un rol important în clinică, cei doi lideri mondiali oferind aparatură cu care se pot obține analize specifice (RMN, CT, Ecografii în 3D/4D) etc. Marii câștigători sunt turiștii, clienții, pacienții. \r\n\r\nIată ce am mai aflat de la însoțitorii noștri în cadrul unui infotrip pentru presa de specialitate organizat de Florin Albu, prin compania sa de evenimente Dr. Travel: Centrul medical SanConfind din Poiana Campina oferă servicii de înaltă clasă. Este o imagine nouă a unui spital modern. A fost inaugurat în urmă cu un an, în luna aprilie 2015. Aceast a fost prima etapă de investiții. A doua se află în derulare și are în vedere dotarea și finisarea mai multor spații inclusiv peisagistice. Iar a treia etapă prevede construirea și includerea în circuitul medical și turistic a unui Hotel ce va fi legat printr-un pod de sticlă de actuala bază de tratament. \r\n\r\nBaza de tratament - care reprezintă al doilea punct forte după echipamentele performante - foloseste o apa minerală, printre cele mai sărate din țară, cu o mineralizare total de 321 g/l, captată de la un izvor vechi de sute de ani. Atracția sectorului Balneo sunt cele trei bazine mari cu apă încălzită la 33° C, recirculată și filtrată continuu pentru a fi mereu curată: două pentru adulți, ambele cu adâncimea de 1,2 metri și unul pentru copii, adânc de 0,5 metri. La SanConfind se folosește numai nămol sapropelic adus din Lacul Techirghiol. Nămolul este depozitat în condiții și instalații speciale pentru a-și păstra calitățile terapeutice. Unitatea este dotată, de asemenea, cu doi roboți medicali de excepție, pentru recuperarea membrelor superioare și inferioare, aparat wireless pentru electroterapie, combine inteligente Chattannooga, cadă treflă cu duș sub-acval, căzi speciale pentru băi de plante, cu dioxid de carbón și bule, duș Vichy pentru relaxarea și tonifierea musculaturii, magnetoterapie, shock-wave, deep-oscillation.

On Prahova Valley, in Poiana Câmpina, less than 100 km north of Bucharest, opened about one year ago the Medical Center SanConfind. Here, for the pools with mineral salt waters, a source known since 1510s is being used.
\nThe center is a private investment. It offers a SPA treatment concept with medical recovery facilities, using the newest technologies known in the domain. General Electric and Siemens are two of the equipment producers for the most accurate investigations necessary. At this point the second part of the investment plan is ongoing, including the opening of a farmacy inside the hospital. The third step of the project consists in building a hotel that will be connected with the medical centre through a glass passage.”The total investment is estimated at 22 milion euro” – said the business man Ioan Simion, owner of SanConfind.

They remind that Lonely Planet named Transilvania a must visit destination for 2016. The city of Cluj boosts with theaters and art galleries, with great contemporary approach at the multifunctional „Fabrica de pensule”. The jurnalists from The Sun say that a city tour of Cluj should end at the National History Museum where one can admire a medical laboratory and its collection of healing potions.

(DOINA CONSTANTINESCU) \nROȘIA MONTANĂ e în UNESCO
\nMinisterul Culturii și Ministerul Mediului, Apelor și Pădurilor din România au comunicat către Centrul Patrimoniului Mondial de la Paris înscrierea peisajului cultural minier Roșia Montană în lista indicativă a României pentru Patrimoniul Mondial UNESCO. Demersul vine după ce localitatea Roșia Montană, pe o rază de 2 kilometri, a fost clasată ca sit în categoria A, în noua Listă a Monumentelor Istorice.
\nPotrivit Ministerului, atributele definitorii ale sitului sunt galeriile miniere - de exploatare, de asistență, de aerisire și de evacuare a apei - excavate începând din perioada romană și continuate în perioada medievală și modernă, peisajul roman de suprafață, peisajul industrial istoric, și târgul minier Roșia Montană. Galeriile săpate în masivele muntoase din jurul localității însumează mai mult de 80 kilometri din care 7 datează din Antichitate, alcătuind cel mai vast și mai important sistem de exploatare minieră cunoscut din lumea romană - precizează specialiștii Ministerul român al Culturii.
\nÎn prezent pe Lista Patrimoniului Mondial al UNESCO, alături de Roșia Montană se află: Rezervația Biosferei Delta Dunării (înscrisă în 1991), ansamblul de sate cu biserici fortificate din Transilvania (1993, 1999), Mânăstirea Horezu (1993), bisericile din nordul Moldovei (1993), cetățile dacice de la Orăștie (1999), bisericile maramuresene din lemn (1999) și centrul istoric al orașului Sighișoara (1999).
\nCASTLE BREAK a intrat în runda a 4-a \n\n Asociația ARCHÉ aduce, pentru al patrulea an consecutiv, castelele și conacele mai puțin cunoscute din România mai aproape de publicul larg, printr-un proiect inovator de turism cultural, adresat tuturor celor interesați să-și cunoască istoria și cultura. Ediția 2016 include 12 tururi cu specific cultural la bijuterii ale patrimoniului construit din toate regiunile istorice ale României. Itinerariile propuse includ peste 20 de reședințe ale elitelor de altădată – castele, palate, cule sau conace – dar și vizite la producători și meșteșugari locali, degustări de produse tradiționale etc.\n\nPrintre cele mai reprezentative obiective vizate de proiect se numără Castelul Bánffy din Bonţida, Castelul Bethlen din Criș, Castelul Sturdza din Miclăuşeni, conacul Apafi din Mălâncrav, Centrul Cultural Sâncrai, Castelul Daniel din Tălișoara, Castelul Teleki din Gorneşti, bisericile fortificate din Viscri, Saschiz și Mălâncrav, precum şi culele din Măldăreşti şi Curtişoara. Tururile au loc în perioada 23 aprilie – 5 noiembrie și au o durată totală de 103 zile. „Proiectul Castle Break acordă participanților șansa de a deveni o parte integrantă a procesului de revitalizare a patrimoniului. În fiecare tur cultural, vizitatori de toate vârstele descoperă povestea din spatele zidurilor devenind ei înșiși naratori, capabili să tragă un semnal de alarmă privind necesitatea valorificării unor monumente incluse parțial sau deloc în circuitul economic” - declară Carmen Popa, coordonatorul proiectului Castle Break. \n\nDe altfel, pe 12 aprilie, au fost deja deschise înscrierile la patru tururi culturale din seria Castle Break: „Zestrea Transilvaniei”, „Perlele Mureșului”, „Moldova: rafinament, ospitalitate și bucate alese”, respectiv „Podgorii, conace şi vinuri munteneşti”.

\nTHE SUN: ”Nu ratați Transilvania ! ”
\nJurnaliștii publicației The Sun recomandă vizitarea Transilvaniei nu doar pentru mitul lui Dracula ci și pentru perspectivele panoramice, pentru castelele „desprinse parcă poveștile din Harry Potter” precum și pentru barurile ascunse pe străzi înguste și sinuoase. Ei reamintesc că Lonely Planet a desemnat Transilvania ca o destinație desăvârșită pentru călătorii. Ei relatează că în Cluj, de pildă, turiștii pot face slalom printre galerii de artă și teatre, le recomandă să se rătăcească prin spațiul de artă contemporană „Fabrica de pensule”, unde se răsfiră mai multe galerii, ateliere ale artiștilor și spații pentru spectacole teatrale. În viziunea celor de la The Sun turul orașului ar trebui să se încheie la Muzeul Național de Istorie, unde pot fi admirate colecția de poțiuni și echipamentul străvechi de laborator, ambele desprinse parcă din același univers al lui Harry Potter. Castelul Bran din secolul al XIV-lea, cocoțat pe o stâncă, sursă de inspirație pentru reședința Contelui Dracula în romanul scris de Bram Stoker oferă panorame impresionante. Turiștii urcă scările secrete din interior către turnuri, iar apoi trebuie să-și dozeze forțele și frica pentru a vizita Muzeul Torturii din incinta Castelului Bran, subliniază aceeași editori.

\r\nMinisterul Culturii și Ministerul Mediului, Apelor și Pădurilor din România au comunicat către Centrul Patrimoniului Mondial de la Paris înscrierea peisajului cultural minier Roșia Montană în lista indicativă a României pentru Patrimoniul Mondial UNESCO. Demersul vine după ce localitatea Roșia Montană, pe o rază de 2 kilometri, a fost clasată ca sit în categoria A, în noua Listă a Monumentelor Istorice.
\r\nPotrivit Ministerului, atributele definitorii ale sitului sunt galeriile miniere - de exploatare, de asistență, de aerisire și de evacuare a apei - excavate începând din perioada romană și continuate în perioada medievală și modernă, peisajul roman de suprafață, peisajul industrial istoric, și târgul minier Roșia Montană. Galeriile săpate în masivele muntoase din jurul localității însumează mai mult de 80 kilometri din care 7 datează din Antichitate, alcătuind cel mai vast și mai important sistem de exploatare minieră cunoscut din lumea romană - precizează specialiștii Ministerul român al Culturii.
\r\nÎn prezent pe Lista Patrimoniului Mondial al UNESCO, alături de Roșia Montană se află: Rezervația Biosferei Delta Dunării (înscrisă în 1991), ansamblul de sate cu biserici fortificate din Transilvania (1993, 1999), Mânăstirea Horezu (1993), bisericile din nordul Moldovei (1993), cetățile dacice de la Orăștie (1999), bisericile maramuresene din lemn (1999) și centrul istoric al orașului Sighișoara (1999).

\n2017 - PRIMUL HILTON GARDEN INN
\n
Conducerea lanțului Hilton Worldwide a anunțat că primul Hilton Garden Inn din România se va deschide, în 2017, într- o clădire monument istoric de pe Strada Doamnei din zona Centrului Vechi din București.
\nHotelul ce va activa la un standard de 4 stele, va pune la dispoziția turiștilor 201 camere. El va fi deschis în urma unui acord de franciză cu firma SC Apex Alliance 1 S.R.L. Essam Abouda, vicepreședinte de operațiuni pe Europa de Est, Rusia și Turcia al Hilton Worldwide, a declarat că lanțul hotelier intenționează să deschidă noi unități în țara noastră: \"România, la fel ca Rusia și Turcia, este o piață în plină creștere în regiunea pe care o coordonez, cu un potențial tot mai mare pentru brandurile noastre. Intenționăm să ne extindem prezența pe piata locală cu alte 7 hoteluri.\" Hilton Garden Inn este unul dintre brandurile hoteliere deținute în portofoliu de Hilton Worldwide, ce operează la nivel global peste 4.600 de hoteluri.
\nAFRODITA - cel mai apreciat hotel
\n
Portalul de rezervări online HotelGuru.ro (ce listează circa 1.800 de unități de cazare din România, din totalul celor 145.000 din Europa), a dat publicității un studiu în care sunt clasificate cele mai apreciate unitățile de cazare din România, în 2015.
\n\nÎn cadrul acestuia au votat peste 2.400 de persoane care au testat servici în hotelurile recomandate. Printre tendințele pieței turistice naționale au fost consemnate și următoarele aspecte: Românii au apreciat în primul rând zona SPA, confortul și preparatele culinare servite la restaurantele hotelurilor. Ospitalitatea personalului, aspectul camerelor și localizarea au contat mai puțin în alegerea unității de cazare preferate.
\nCei mai mulți dintre cei chestionați au declarat că preferă să-și petreacă zilele de concediu în resorturile din stațiunea balneo-climaterică Băile Herculane, unde se pot relaxa la SPA și beneficiază de tratamente termale. Cea mai apreciată unitate a fost Afrodita Resort & SPA, pentru care au votat 6,3% dintre respondenți. Hotelul clasificat la 3 stele, deține pe 10 etaje 220 de camere. El oferă 2 restaurante cu preparate tradiționale românești și cu specific internațional, centru SPA cu piscină, saună, cadă de hidromasaj, centru fitness și zonă de joaca pentru copii. Hotelul face parte din lanțul Bacolux deținut de către de un grup de investitori din Craiova. Proiectul de renovare a fost premiat în 2014 la Gala Turismului Românesc.

Hilton Worldwide anunță că va deschide stagiunea din 2017 cu ”opera” Hilton Garden Inn. Industria turistică îi are și pe investitorii români de la Bacolux care încep să culeagă aplauzele și implicit banii după o muncă susținută, de patru ani, la Băile Herculane.
\r\n2017 - PRIMUL HILTON GARDEN INN
\r\n
Conducerea lanțului Hilton Worldwide a anunțat că primul Hilton Garden Inn din România se va deschide, în 2017, într- o clădire monument istoric de pe Strada Doamnei din zona Centrului Vechi din București.
\r\nHotelul ce va activa la un standard de 4 stele, va pune la dispoziția turiștilor 201 camere. El va fi deschis în urma unui acord de franciză cu firma SC Apex Alliance 1 S.R.L. Essam Abouda, vicepreședinte de operațiuni pe Europa de Est, Rusia și Turcia al Hilton Worldwide, a declarat că lanțul hotelier intenționează să deschidă noi unități în țara noastră: \"România, la fel ca Rusia și Turcia, este o piață în plină creștere în regiunea pe care o coordonez, cu un potențial tot mai mare pentru brandurile noastre. Intenționăm să ne extindem prezența pe piata locală cu alte 7 hoteluri.\" Hilton Garden Inn este unul dintre brandurile hoteliere deținute în portofoliu de Hilton Worldwide, ce operează la nivel global peste 4.600 de hoteluri.
\r\nAFRODITA - cel mai apreciat hotel
\r\n
Portalul de rezervări online HotelGuru.ro (ce listează circa 1.800 de unități de cazare din România, din totalul celor 145.000 din Europa), a dat publicității un studiu în care sunt clasificate cele mai apreciate unitățile de cazare din România, în 2015.
\r\n
În cadrul acestuia au votat peste 2.400 de persoane care au testat servici în hotelurile recomandate. Printre tendințele pieței turistice naționale au fost consemnate și următoarele aspecte: Românii au apreciat în primul rând zona SPA, confortul și preparatele culinare servite la restaurantele hotelurilor. Ospitalitatea personalului, aspectul camerelor și localizarea au contat mai puțin în alegerea unității de cazare preferate.
\r\nCei mai mulți dintre cei chestionați au declarat că preferă să-și petreacă zilele de concediu în resorturile din stațiunea balneo-climaterică Băile Herculane, unde se pot relaxa la SPA și beneficiază de tratamente termale. Cea mai apreciată unitate a fost Afrodita Resort & SPA, pentru care au votat 6,3% dintre respondenți. Hotelul clasificat la 3 stele, deține pe 10 etaje 220 de camere. El oferă 2 restaurante cu preparate tradiționale românești și cu specific internațional, centru SPA cu piscină, saună, cadă de hidromasaj, centru fitness și zonă de joaca pentru copii. Hotelul face parte din lanțul Bacolux deținut de către de un grup de investitori din Craiova. Proiectul de renovare a fost premiat în 2014 la Gala Turismului Românesc. Printre complexele nominalizate în același studiu de către site-ul HotelGuru.ro se numără și Hotel Szeifert (3 stele) din Sovata, Club Vila Bran (3 stele) din Bran, Hotel Alpin (4 stele) din Poiana Brașov respectiv Danubius Health Spa Resort (4 stele) din Sovata.

Parte din Grupul Socialiștilor și Democraților (S&D). O tînără de 30 de ani, ambițioasă. Raportor pe 5 proiecte și peste 180 de rapoarte și amendamente depuse. Nominalizată MEP Awards 2016, la categoria Turism, de către The Parliament Magazine. Copreședinta Intergrupului pentru Dezvoltarea Turismului European și Patrimoniu Cultural pentru a cărui înființare a militat în această legislatură.\n\n\n\n- Considerați că industria turistică românească ar trebui să beneficieze de un tratament economic mai favorabil din partea actualului Guvern. În acest sens ați adresat o Scrisoare deschisă premierului, Guvernului României prin care solicitați reînființarea Ministerului Turismului ca instituție de sine stătătoare. Inițiativa e susținută de o parte dintre cele mai importante organizații și asociații profesionale ori patronale, printre care și Clubul Presei de Turism, reprezentantul FIJET în România! Aveți și un plan de rezervă - eventual un Minister al Turismului și Culturii?\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_4895\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"1538\"] A Parliamentary Intergroup on Tourism - fostering Europe\'s competitiveness and growth ?[/caption]\n\n- Claudia Țapardel: În primul rând vă mulțumesc foarte mult pentru sprijin, dumneavoastră și colegilor din FIJET România care au acceptat să dea un semnal puternic Guvernului pentru susținerea turismului românesc. Primul pas l-am făcut împreună și asta este cel mai important. Asociațiile patronale din turism au reacționat, s-au unit și scrisoarea reprezintă o colecție a dorințelor care vin în mod natural din această parte a industriei. Ministerul Turismului este foarte important și cerut de toți oamenii din domeniu. Eu nu voi renunța la reprezentarea corectă a acestui sector în relația cu Guvernul și voi continua să cer tratarea corectă a potențialului turistic al României, inclusiv printr-un buget mai sănătos. Pasul următor este să continuăm seria de solicitări și presiunea. Cred foarte mult că un Pact pentru Turism care să cuprindă inclusiv un Minister al Turismului este necesar pentru perioada următoare. Ministerul Turismului și Culturii este o idee interesantă pe care vă spun sincer că nu am luat-o în calcul, dar vă promit că mă voi gândi și la această posibilitate.\n\n- Conform Institutului Național de Statistică turismul contribuie la PIB-ul României cu aproximativ 1,8%. În același timp organisme europene ce desfășoară activități similare (Eurostat, Eurobarometru), evaluează procentul la circa 5%? Unde apare diferența?\n\n- Cea mai mare problemă este că nu avem o raportare unitară în UE în ceea ce privește turismul. Diferența dintre raportări provine din metodologie. Una este contribuția directă a unităților de primire turistică și cu totul alta este contribuția indirectă (în sectorul transporturilor, HORECA, divertisment, etc). Turismul este un sector complex care poate să crească foarte mult o comunitate în integralitatea sa. Cifrele Comisiei dar și de la WTTC sunt foarte clare: turismul contribuie direct și indirect la PIB-ul european în proporție de 10%. Este o piață în creștere atât în Europa dar mai ales în România! Nu uitați că în 2015 suntem pe locul 1 în UE în ceea ce privește creșterea numărului de înnoptări 18%. Am tot vorbit de potențial, de ce putem face, de unde putem ajunge, iată că acum cifrele ne dau dreptate și când spunem că turism românesc are potențial nu avem pur și simplu un discurs triumfalist ci dovezi clare că așa este!\n\n \n\n- La o recentă Conferință la Nivel Înalt, organizată de Comisia Europeană ce a avut ca subiect “Atragerea de investiții în turism”, subliniați importanța acestui proces pentru reducerea șomajului, crearea de noi locuri de muncă bine plătite dar și pentru susținerea unor cariere de succes în acest sector? Și-ar putea calibra, regla România o parte din politicile economice în această direcție ?\n\n- Eu sper că da. Conferința la care faceți referire a fost cea mai importantă din acest an pentru că în sfârșit avem semnale bune că din partea Comisiei Europene va exista mai mult sprijin pentru turism. România nu a stat pe loc până acum. Reducerea TVA pentru servicii de turism all-inclusive a fost unul dintre mesajele de încredere din partea Guvernului de atunci și o politică bine setată la nevoile pieței. Da, eu îmi doresc foarte mult să continuăm să investim în pregătirea tinerilor pentru sectorul turismului, să oferim facilități investitorilor care vin cu bani în acest sector și creează locuri de muncă. Din nou, Pactul pentru Turism poate fi o soluție integratoare care să spună clar de ce avem nevoie!\n\n- Apropo! Într-o scrisoare deschisă adresată președintelui Comisiei Europene Jean-Claude Juncker, alături de europarlamentari din toate grupurile politice, de Secretarul General al OMT Taleb Rifai și împreună cu peste 70 de asociații și organizații turistice din toată Europa, militați pentru organizarea în 2018 a unui An European al Turismului și Patrimoniului Cultural. Ce ar avea de câștigat europenii dar și românii de pe urma acestui mega-eveniment?\n\n- Când am fost aleasă la conducerea Intergrupului pentru Dezvoltarea Turismului European am ridicat această problemă. Răspunsul la unison a fost DA! Gândiți-vă că în toată Europa și în România vom avea ocazia să ne promovăm valorile turistice, naturale și culturale. Gândiți-vă că alături de Comisia Europeană care trebuie să organizeze cu buget această acțiune, vom reuși să formăm un brand european de turism mai puternic, mai bine legat. Comunitățile cu potențial turistic din România ar putea atrage atenția investitorilor prin evenimente dedicate promovării turistice în cadrul Anului European al Turismului și Patrimoniului Cultural. Din 1990 nu a mai fost organizat un astfel de an. Eu am mare încredere în potențialul unei acțiuni atât de mari pentru turism!\n\n- Pentru promovarea inițiativelor aveți nevoie mai ales de sprijinul presei de turism. Cât de diferit este modul de lucru, de informare și colaborare de la Bruxelles în comparație cu cel de la București?\n\n- Presa de turism din România este specială. Sunteți cel mai pasionat grup pe care l-am întâlnit în acest domeniu și vă spun sincer că apreciez în mod deosebit ce faceți pentru promovarea turistică a României, în țară și în străinătate. Este dificil pentru presa din România să fie prezentă la toate evenimentele pe care le organizez în turism și nu numai. Aici remarc o diferență, presa din Bruxelles, presa de specialitate este interesată de aceste evenimente, rostogolește mesajele pe care atât eu cât și colegii mei le transmitem în aceste întâlniri. Altfel nu aș vrea să creadă cineva că este o diferență de profesionalism între cele două. Interesul presei de specialitate, europene este într-adevăr mai ridicat pentru subiecte de nișă, în timp ce o parte mare a presei românești urmărește senzaționalul.\n\n- Ne preocupă foarte mult promovarea României în spațiul european și internațional. La ce resurse încă nevalorificate poate apela țara noastră pentru a se poziționa mult mai puternic pe piața turistică?\n\n- Sunt atât de multe. Am organizat la Bruxelles un eveniment foarte frumos Green and Blue Tourism, ocazie cu care am promovat Delta Dunării și Litoralul românesc. Încep de aici. Delta nu este valorificată la justa valoare. Suntem încă la început acolo. Litoralul, mai ales în Sud are nevoie de investiții masive și poate concura cu cele mai atractive locuri de același tip din Europa, cel puțin 3 luni pe an.\nTurismul balnear din România nu ajunge la 5% din potențialul pe care îl are. Studiile spun că 33% din apele termale și minerale din Europa sunt, unde credeți? În România! Cu toate acestea avem stațiuni montane sărăcite, lăsate într-o stare incredibilă. Pe de altă parte în România sunt și investiții mamut, cum este complexul de lângă București, bazate exclusiv pe potențialul termal. Deci lucrurile se mișcă.\nAlte zone care ar putea crește în perioada următoare ar fi pe turismul medical, de frumusețe, avem la Constanța spre exemplu o afacere de familie care stârnește invidia multor companii internaționale, Careless Beauty, care se laudă cu produse și servicii de îngrijire a tenului foarte căutate.\n\n- Europa este prima putere mondială în sectorul turistic. Ea se promovează prin branduri naționale. Sunteți unul dintre susținătorii necesității promovării unui brand turistic, o ”pălărie comună” ce se numește „Destination Europe”. Prin ce resurse financiare va fi susținută această campanie în 2016?\n\n- Bugetul pe 2016 este îmbogățit cu acest proiect pilot pe care l-am propus anul trecut. Suma este de jumătate de milion de euro. Am încredere că proiectul pilot va fi un succes și atunci, anual, vom avea un capitol bugetar dedicat promovării brandului turistic european la care și România să fie conectată.\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Interviu cu Claudia Tapardel, INTERVIU nr.145','','inherit','closed','closed','','4853-autosave-v1','','','2016-09-01 12:19:39','2016-09-01 10:19:39','',4853,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2016/09/01/4853-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4894,1,'2016-08-20 18:45:33','2016-08-20 16:45:33','','Claudia Tapardel europarlamentar1','','inherit','open','closed','','claudia-tapardel-europarlamentar1','','','2016-08-20 18:45:33','2016-08-20 16:45:33','',4853,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Claudia-Tapardel-europarlamentar1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4895,1,'2016-08-20 18:45:43','2016-08-20 16:45:43','','Claudia TAPARDEL, Antonio TAJANI','A Parliamentary Intergroup on Tourism - fostering Europe\'s competitiveness and growth ?','inherit','open','closed','','claudia-tapardel-antonio-tajani','','','2016-08-20 18:45:43','2016-08-20 16:45:43','',4853,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Claudia-Tapardel-3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4896,1,'2016-08-20 18:45:48','2016-08-20 16:45:48','CLAUDIA ȚAPARDEL: ”Destination Europe” este o pălărie șic pentru promovarea unui brand turistic comun !”\r\n\r\n![\"Claudia](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Claudia-Tapardel-2.jpg\")

Am organizat la Bruxelles un eveniment foarte frumos Green and Blue Tourism, ocazie cu care am promovat Delta Dunării și Litoralul românesc. Încep de aici. Delta nu este valorificată la justa valoare. Suntem încă la început acolo. Litoralul, mai ales în Sud are nevoie de investiții masive și poate concura cu cele mai atractive locuri de același tip din Europa, cel puțin 3 luni pe an.\r\nTurismul balnear din România nu ajunge la 5% din potențialul pe care îl are. Studiile spun că 33% din apele termale și minerale din Europa sunt, unde credeți? În România! Cu toate acestea avem stațiuni montane sărăcite, lăsate într-o stare incredibilă. Pe de altă parte în România sunt și investiții mamut, cum este complexul de lângă București, bazate exclusiv pe potențialul termal. Deci lucrurile se mișcă.\r\nAlte zone care ar putea crește în perioada următoare ar fi pe turismul medical, de frumusețe, avem la Constanța spre exemplu o afacere de familie care stârnește invidia multor companii internaționale, Careless Beauty, care se laudă cu produse și servicii de îngrijire a tenului foarte căutate.\r\n\r\n- Europa este prima putere mondială în sectorul turistic. Ea se promovează prin branduri naționale. Sunteți unul dintre susținătorii necesității promovării unui brand turistic, o ”pălărie comună” ce se numește „Destination Europe”. Prin ce resurse financiare va fi susținută această campanie în 2016?\r\n\r\n- Bugetul pe 2016 este îmbogățit cu acest proiect pilot pe care l-am propus anul trecut. Suma este de jumătate de milion de euro. Am încredere că proiectul pilot va fi un succes și atunci, anual, vom avea un capitol bugetar dedicat promovării brandului turistic european la care și România să fie conectată.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Interviu cu Claudia Tapardel, INTERVIU nr.145','','inherit','closed','closed','','4853-revision-v1','','','2016-08-20 18:45:48','2016-08-20 16:45:48','',4853,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2016/08/20/4853-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4897,1,'2016-08-20 18:47:19','2016-08-20 16:47:19','','Catania 1','','inherit','open','closed','','catania-1','','','2016-08-20 18:47:19','2016-08-20 16:47:19','',4855,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Catania-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4898,1,'2016-08-20 18:47:38','2016-08-20 16:47:38','','Catania 976','','inherit','open','closed','','catania-976','','','2016-08-20 18:47:38','2016-08-20 16:47:38','',4855,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Catania-976.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4899,1,'2016-08-20 18:47:39','2016-08-20 16:47:39','','Catania 1','','inherit','open','closed','','catania-1-2','','','2016-08-20 18:47:39','2016-08-20 16:47:39','',4855,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Catania-1-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4900,1,'2016-08-20 18:47:40','2016-08-20 16:47:40','','Catania 05','','inherit','open','closed','','catania-05','','','2016-08-20 18:47:40','2016-08-20 16:47:40','',4855,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Catania-05.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4901,1,'2016-08-20 18:47:40','2016-08-20 16:47:40','','Catania 27','','inherit','open','closed','','catania-27','','','2016-08-20 18:47:40','2016-08-20 16:47:40','',4855,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Catania-27.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4902,1,'2016-08-20 18:47:41','2016-08-20 16:47:41','','Catania 1047','','inherit','open','closed','','catania-1047','','','2016-08-20 18:47:41','2016-08-20 16:47:41','',4855,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Catania-1047.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4903,1,'2016-08-20 18:47:42','2016-08-20 16:47:42','','Catania 1074','','inherit','open','closed','','catania-1074','','','2016-08-20 18:47:42','2016-08-20 16:47:42','',4855,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Catania-1074.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(4904,1,'2016-08-20 18:47:56','2016-08-20 16:47:56','La prima strigare cînd spui Sicilia îți apar în minte orașele Palermo, Taormina, Trapani ori Agrigento. De Catania îți amintești mai târziu. Deși acesta este un oraș turistic de prim plan nu numai al insulei ci și al Italiei. Un centru economic cu o puternică dezvoltare, similară spun cunoscătorii cu a altei metropole de pe continent - Milano.
\r\n
În zestrea naturală e inclusă Etna, vulcan la a cărui bază se desfășoară covoare fertile de verdeață, livezi roditoare de citrice, migdali și măslini. Și istoria și-a făcut de cap aici unde a lăsat numeroase vestigii artitectonice și urbanistice. Catania a fost colonie greacă, apoi romană, arabă, normandă și chiar bizantină. Întregul melanj cultural s-a născut, a murit, apoi a renăscut sub cenușa Etnei care a măturat orașul în 1669 și în 1693. Arhitectul Giovanni Battista Vaccarini a fost magicianul care i-a redat strălucirea. Rezultatul? O bijuterie urbană care îmbină vechiul cu noul, arterele aerisite cu străduțele înguste pe care de abia își fac loc furgonete care asigură aprovizionarea micilor magazine alimentare. Barocul târziu contrapunctează puternic cu clădiri avantgardiste ce valorifică soluții îndrăznețe de design. Zona face parte azi din Patrimoniul Mondial UNESCO. Până și Etna și-a domolit ardoarea și străjuiește parcă liniștea orașului. Peste 800.000 de locuitori își trăiesc viața în ritmul și spațiul marcat de prezența marelui Bellini, a elefantului și fântânii din Piața Domului, de Catedrală, de amfiteatrul roman, teatrul grec, grădina botanică, celebra Piață de pește - care apare și dispare în fiecare zi în același loc, un ritual ce datează de sute de ani și atrage mii de turiști -, Castelul Ursino, Poarta Uzeda, Palatul Biscari și magnifică prin simplitate Poarta Garibaldi.
\r\n[gallery size=\"medium\" ids=\"4898,4899,4900,4901,4902,4903\"]\r\nVă faceți griji că n-o să vă ajungă timpul să le vizitați pe toate? Chiar pe Via Vittorio Emanuele într-un colț al pieții centrale se bat pe clienți în fiecare zi două vehiculele a două City Tour-uri, care costă invariabil doar 5 euro de persoană. Cu primul, autobuzul supraetajat, aveți ocazia să faceți marele circuit al orașului modern, să străbateți bulevarde, să vă încântați ochii cu fântâni și sculpturi clasice. Firește, puteți coborî oriunde vă place, căci tichetul este valabil o zi întreagă. Ghidajul este asigurat în 5 limbi așa că veți deveni tobă de istorie și cultură italiană. La fel se întâmplă și cu Trenulețul turistic. O ia la vale și la deal pe străduțe înguste accesibile în principal pietonilor. Din acest vehicul nu prea ai unde să te dai jos pentru că spațiile sunt foarte strânse iar dacă vreți și adrenalină o s-o aveți din plin mai ales la intersecții și luatul curbelor. Nu ratați și spectacolul așaziselor certuri dintre șoferi care, chipurile se luptă pentru a convinge turiștii să urce mai întâi în mijlocul lor de transport. Comedia dell arte, comedia dell turismo, nu contează, e doar un spectacol de care se bucură toată lumea într-o zi însorită de primăvară. Profitați din plin de ofertă. Înainte, între tururi, sau după aceea, nu ratați un capucino la una din multele terase din Piața Domului. Ca din întâmplare un băiat de prăvălie, uneori chiar un român, îi dă drumul la povestea cu micul elefant din Piața Domului, cocoțat pe un piedestal, ce ține în spate un obelisc egiptean. Statueta acestuia are peste două mii de ani vechime și provine dintr-un templu oriental. Povestea amintește că magul Eliodor l-ar fi călărit în lupta sa împotriva sfântului episcop Leon, în care a fost înfrânt. Statuia micului pachiderm a fost găsită și recuperată de către arhitectul Vaccarini prin anii 1700. Inspirat de Fântână lui Bernini de la Roma el a creat la rândul său o fântână ce domină Piața Domului. În centrul ei se află coloana și elefantul respectiv, devenit emblemă dar și loc de referință pentru întâlnirea îndrăgostiților.
\r\nDacă treceți numai pentru o zi prin Catania, puteți să acoperiți toate aceste repere. Mai ales că în multe muzee intrarea este gratuită iar în restaurante lumea se mișcă repede și cu talent. Bacșiș-ul există și se dă cu plăcere pentru că turistul apreciază timpul din care vrea să stoarcă maximum posibil. Nu poți părăsi Catania, orașul subjugat memoriei marelui compozitor Bellini, fără a gusta un preparat gastronomic... muzical. ”Paste alla Norma” este un omagiu adus de localnici celebrei opere. Felul de mâncare are la bază vinete trase la tigaie, un sos picant de roșii și brânză sărată rasă, totul dat la cuptor. Nu știu dacă se și fredonează ceva... Iar dacă nu vă prea este foame porniți întro plimbare pe celebra Via Etnea, admirați vitrinele și prețurile foarte prietenioase, sau opriți-vă la o înghețată de lămâie sau portocale la cofetăria ”Savia”, emblema dulce de peste un secol a Cataniei.
\r\nDar dacă v-ați făcut planuri să stați în Catania mai multe zile nu ratați o ”passeggiata” de-a lungul țărmului pentru a atinge Riviera Ciclopilor și Castelul Normand. Formațiunile stâncoase, care zvânesc din apele mării create de erupțiile vulcanice și șlefuite de vânturile puternice, concurează operele de artă. Cei mai mulți vin aici pentru a asculta povestea lui Polifem orbit de către Ulise. Acesta ar fi aruncat cu stâncile după legendarul erou. Cel mai înalt dintre ciclopi are circa 70 de metri. Peisajul este dominat de silueta Castelului construit în secolul al XI-lea din... piatră vulcanică. Dar și de o impresionantă galerie cu sculpturi moderne, ce poartă semnatura unor cunscuți artiști. Loc de întâlnire al turiștilor, acesta este revendicat la apusul soarelui de către perechi de îndrăgostiți. Magia merge mai departe!

CLINCENI - 110 ani de la un record mondial
\r\n110 ani de când Traian Vuia a zburat cu un aparat mai greu decât aerul, înregistrând un record mondial. Evenimentul a fost marcat la aeroportul din Clinceni în prezența unor personalități ale aerului dar și a numeroși spectatori care au venit aici pentru a urmări un spectacol aviatic de excepție.
\r\n
El a avut în centrul său un aparat de zbor identic cu cel creat de Vuia, construit de către o echipă de piloți români pe parcursul a nouă luni. ”Am folosit la demonstrații planoarele și avioanele utilizate de școală pentru antrenament și performanță. Am reușit să arătăm publicului o replică la scară reală a avionului lui Vuia, cel care a zburat cu mijloace proprii acum 110 ani” - declara George Rotaru, directorul Aeroclubului României. Cu ocazia evenimentului gazdele au organizat și o tombolă, la care premiile au constat în plimbări de agrement cu avioane ultraușoare.
\r\nTAP PORTUGAL s-a retras
\r\nDe la sfârșitul lunii martie compania aeriana TAP Portugal a decis suspendarea operării directe pe relația București – Lisabona, pentru o perioadă de timp nedefinită. TAP era singura care zbura între România și Portugalia. „Pentru a îmbunătați profitabilitatea, TAP Portugal și-a reorganizat operațiunile prin suspendarea, din 27 martie, a unor rute mai puțin rentabile. Prin urmare am sistat zborurile de la Lisabona spre Bogota/Panama, Gothenburg, Hannover, Zagreb, Budapesta și București” - se arată într-un comunicat distribuit pe piața românească.
\r\nPe acest fond compania Blue Air a anuntat că, din luna iunie, va începe operarea de curse pe ruta București-Lisabona. Ele vor avea o frecvență de trei zboruri pe săptămână.

\r\nFondul spaniol de investitii GED Capital, proprietarul grupului de agentii de turism Happy Tour, a vândut Prestige Tour catre Mustafa Kadiroglu, presedintele si proprietarul turoperatorului turc Calypso Tour. Investitorul a achitat datoriile firmei si operatiunile pe care aceasta le-a desfasurat anul trecut, iar in plus a mai platit doar... 18 lei. In 2011, cand au preluat Prestige Tours de la Mircea Vladu, spaniolii au platit mai mult de 1 milion de euro. În 2014 datoriile Prestige Tour se ridicau la 2,7 milioane de euro. Dacă în 2013 Prestige avea 36 de angajati, numarul acestora aproape ca s-a injumatatit un an mai tarziu, ajungand la 19.
\r\nCalipso Tour, reprezentată de Mustafa Kadiroglu, este un touroperator important din Turcia, cu 10 ani de experienta in furnizarea de asistenta turistica de top pentru turisti din toate colturile lumii. El face parte din grupul turc Casio Air și operează în principal vacanțe în Antalya. În acest context Prestige Tours International a anunțat lansarea în premieră pentru această vară a unui zbor direct, pentru această vară (din 18 iunie), către Antalya, de pe aeroportul din Suceava. El va fi realizat în parteneriat cu Blue Air și va avea plecări în fiecare sâmbătă.

\r\n2017 - PRIMUL HILTON GARDEN INN
\r\n
Conducerea lanțului Hilton Worldwide a anunțat că primul Hilton Garden Inn din România se va deschide, în 2017, într- o clădire monument istoric de pe Strada Doamnei din zona Centrului Vechi din București.
\r\nHotelul ce va activa la un standard de 4 stele, va pune la dispoziția turiștilor 201 camere. El va fi deschis în urma unui acord de franciză cu firma SC Apex Alliance 1 S.R.L. Essam Abouda, vicepreședinte de operațiuni pe Europa de Est, Rusia și Turcia al Hilton Worldwide, a declarat că lanțul hotelier intenționează să deschidă noi unități în țara noastră: \"România, la fel ca Rusia și Turcia, este o piață în plină creștere în regiunea pe care o coordonez, cu un potențial tot mai mare pentru brandurile noastre. Intenționăm să ne extindem prezența pe piata locală cu alte 7 hoteluri.\" Hilton Garden Inn este unul dintre brandurile hoteliere deținute în portofoliu de Hilton Worldwide, ce operează la nivel global peste 4.600 de hoteluri.
\r\nAFRODITA - cel mai apreciat hotel
\r\n
Portalul de rezervări online HotelGuru.ro (ce listează circa 1.800 de unități de cazare din România, din totalul celor 145.000 din Europa), a dat publicității un studiu în care sunt clasificate cele mai apreciate unitățile de cazare din România, în 2015.
\r\n
În cadrul acestuia au votat peste 2.400 de persoane care au testat servici în hotelurile recomandate. Printre tendințele pieței turistice naționale au fost consemnate și următoarele aspecte: Românii au apreciat în primul rând zona SPA, confortul și preparatele culinare servite la restaurantele hotelurilor. Ospitalitatea personalului, aspectul camerelor și localizarea au contat mai puțin în alegerea unității de cazare preferate.
\r\nCei mai mulți dintre cei chestionați au declarat că preferă să-și petreacă zilele de concediu în resorturile din stațiunea balneo-climaterică Băile Herculane, unde se pot relaxa la SPA și beneficiază de tratamente termale. Cea mai apreciată unitate a fost Afrodita Resort & SPA, pentru care au votat 6,3% dintre respondenți. Hotelul clasificat la 3 stele, deține pe 10 etaje 220 de camere. El oferă 2 restaurante cu preparate tradiționale românești și cu specific internațional, centru SPA cu piscină, saună, cadă de hidromasaj, centru fitness și zonă de joaca pentru copii. Hotelul face parte din lanțul Bacolux deținut de către de un grup de investitori din Craiova. Proiectul de renovare a fost premiat în 2014 la Gala Turismului Românesc. Printre complexele nominalizate în același studiu de către site-ul HotelGuru.ro se numără și Hotel Szeifert (3 stele) din Sovata, Club Vila Bran (3 stele) din Bran, Hotel Alpin (4 stele) din Poiana Brașov respectiv Danubius Health Spa Resort (4 stele) din Sovata.

Hotelul oferă clienților: 87 de camere (standard, superior, suite, comfort suite), 3 săli de conferință și 2 săli de evenimente elegante, moderne și multifuncționale, împreună cu servicii premium, pentru a face din orice eveniment organizat un succes. ”Restaurantele noastre vă invită la o călătorie culinară, de la preparatele românești din restaurantul Hora, până la rafinamentul bucătăriei internaționale de la Cosmopolitan, totul acompaniat de muzica live. În principal de adresăm segmentului de business dar suntem deschiși la toate tendințele pieței” - ne-a precizat Bianca Sipu, reprezentantul Best Western Plus Expocenter. \r\nPe același segment de brand a fost anunțată o investiție ce merită reținută. Proprietarul Best Western Stil din București, compania Paralela 45 va investi în acest an 250.000 de euro pentru modernizarea hotelului ce oferă 30 de camere. Poziționat în zona de nord a Capitalei, hotelul de 4 stele a fost cumpărat în 2007 cu echivalentul sumei de 3,5 milioane euro. Alin Burcea, proprietarul grupului de turism, consideră că ”renovarea capitală a hotelului, e necesară pentru a pune la dispoziția oaspeților utilități de ultimă generație pentru toate tipurile de activități. Anul acesta îmi doresc să fie constructiv și productiv pentru turismul românesc. Paralela 45 reușește să aducă turiști de leisure și vara. Țintesc de asemenea să atrag cât mai mulți turiști de business în țară și vreau ca o parte dintre ei să se bucure de cele mai moderne și confortabile condiții oferite de hotelul Stil.”\r\n În portofoliul unuia dintre cele mai mari lanțuri hoteliere din lume - Best Western International Inc. -, figurează peste 4.000 de hoteluri ce activează în peste 100 de țări.

Parte din Grupul Socialiștilor și Democraților (S&D). O tînără de 30 de ani, ambițioasă. Raportor pe 5 proiecte și peste 180 de rapoarte și amendamente depuse. Nominalizată MEP Awards 2016, la categoria Turism, de către The Parliament Magazine. Copreședinta Intergrupului pentru Dezvoltarea Turismului European și Patrimoniu Cultural pentru a cărui înființare a militat în această legislatură.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n- Considerați că industria turistică românească ar trebui să beneficieze de un tratament economic mai favorabil din partea actualului Guvern. În acest sens ați adresat o Scrisoare deschisă premierului, Guvernului României prin care solicitați reînființarea Ministerului Turismului ca instituție de sine stătătoare. Inițiativa e susținută de o parte dintre cele mai importante organizații și asociații profesionale ori patronale, printre care și Clubul Presei de Turism, reprezentantul FIJET în România! Aveți și un plan de rezervă - eventual un Minister al Turismului și Culturii?\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_4895\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"1538\"] A Parliamentary Intergroup on Tourism - fostering Europe\'s competitiveness and growth ?[/caption]\r\n\r\n- Claudia Țapardel: În primul rând vă mulțumesc foarte mult pentru sprijin, dumneavoastră și colegilor din FIJET România care au acceptat să dea un semnal puternic Guvernului pentru susținerea turismului românesc. Primul pas l-am făcut împreună și asta este cel mai important. Asociațiile patronale din turism au reacționat, s-au unit și scrisoarea reprezintă o colecție a dorințelor care vin în mod natural din această parte a industriei. Ministerul Turismului este foarte important și cerut de toți oamenii din domeniu. Eu nu voi renunța la reprezentarea corectă a acestui sector în relația cu Guvernul și voi continua să cer tratarea corectă a potențialului turistic al României, inclusiv printr-un buget mai sănătos. Pasul următor este să continuăm seria de solicitări și presiunea. Cred foarte mult că un Pact pentru Turism care să cuprindă inclusiv un Minister al Turismului este necesar pentru perioada următoare. Ministerul Turismului și Culturii este o idee interesantă pe care vă spun sincer că nu am luat-o în calcul, dar vă promit că mă voi gândi și la această posibilitate.\r\n\r\n- Conform Institutului Național de Statistică turismul contribuie la PIB-ul României cu aproximativ 1,8%. În același timp organisme europene ce desfășoară activități similare (Eurostat, Eurobarometru), evaluează procentul la circa 5%? Unde apare diferența?\r\n\r\n- Cea mai mare problemă este că nu avem o raportare unitară în UE în ceea ce privește turismul. Diferența dintre raportări provine din metodologie. Una este contribuția directă a unităților de primire turistică și cu totul alta este contribuția indirectă (în sectorul transporturilor, HORECA, divertisment, etc). Turismul este un sector complex care poate să crească foarte mult o comunitate în integralitatea sa. Cifrele Comisiei dar și de la WTTC sunt foarte clare: turismul contribuie direct și indirect la PIB-ul european în proporție de 10%. Este o piață în creștere atât în Europa dar mai ales în România! Nu uitați că în 2015 suntem pe locul 1 în UE în ceea ce privește creșterea numărului de înnoptări 18%. Am tot vorbit de potențial, de ce putem face, de unde putem ajunge, iată că acum cifrele ne dau dreptate și când spunem că turism românesc are potențial nu avem pur și simplu un discurs triumfalist ci dovezi clare că așa este!\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n- La o recentă Conferință la Nivel Înalt, organizată de Comisia Europeană ce a avut ca subiect “Atragerea de investiții în turism”, subliniați importanța acestui proces pentru reducerea șomajului, crearea de noi locuri de muncă bine plătite dar și pentru susținerea unor cariere de succes în acest sector? Și-ar putea calibra, regla România o parte din politicile economice în această direcție ?\r\n\r\n- Eu sper că da. Conferința la care faceți referire a fost cea mai importantă din acest an pentru că în sfârșit avem semnale bune că din partea Comisiei Europene va exista mai mult sprijin pentru turism. România nu a stat pe loc până acum. Reducerea TVA pentru servicii de turism all-inclusive a fost unul dintre mesajele de încredere din partea Guvernului de atunci și o politică bine setată la nevoile pieței. Da, eu îmi doresc foarte mult să continuăm să investim în pregătirea tinerilor pentru sectorul turismului, să oferim facilități investitorilor care vin cu bani în acest sector și creează locuri de muncă. Din nou, Pactul pentru Turism poate fi o soluție integratoare care să spună clar de ce avem nevoie!\r\n\r\n- Apropo! Într-o scrisoare deschisă adresată președintelui Comisiei Europene Jean-Claude Juncker, alături de europarlamentari din toate grupurile politice, de Secretarul General al OMT Taleb Rifai și împreună cu peste 70 de asociații și organizații turistice din toată Europa, militați pentru organizarea în 2018 a unui An European al Turismului și Patrimoniului Cultural. Ce ar avea de câștigat europenii dar și românii de pe urma acestui mega-eveniment?\r\n\r\n- Când am fost aleasă la conducerea Intergrupului pentru Dezvoltarea Turismului European am ridicat această problemă. Răspunsul la unison a fost DA! Gândiți-vă că în toată Europa și în România vom avea ocazia să ne promovăm valorile turistice, naturale și culturale. Gândiți-vă că alături de Comisia Europeană care trebuie să organizeze cu buget această acțiune, vom reuși să formăm un brand european de turism mai puternic, mai bine legat. Comunitățile cu potențial turistic din România ar putea atrage atenția investitorilor prin evenimente dedicate promovării turistice în cadrul Anului European al Turismului și Patrimoniului Cultural. Din 1990 nu a mai fost organizat un astfel de an. Eu am mare încredere în potențialul unei acțiuni atât de mari pentru turism!\r\n\r\n- Pentru promovarea inițiativelor aveți nevoie mai ales de sprijinul presei de turism. Cât de diferit este modul de lucru, de informare și colaborare de la Bruxelles în comparație cu cel de la București?\r\n\r\n- Presa de turism din România este specială. Sunteți cel mai pasionat grup pe care l-am întâlnit în acest domeniu și vă spun sincer că apreciez în mod deosebit ce faceți pentru promovarea turistică a României, în țară și în străinătate. Este dificil pentru presa din România să fie prezentă la toate evenimentele pe care le organizez în turism și nu numai. Aici remarc o diferență, presa din Bruxelles, presa de specialitate este interesată de aceste evenimente, rostogolește mesajele pe care atât eu cât și colegii mei le transmitem în aceste întâlniri. Altfel nu aș vrea să creadă cineva că este o diferență de profesionalism între cele două. Interesul presei de specialitate, europene este într-adevăr mai ridicat pentru subiecte de nișă, în timp ce o parte mare a presei românești urmărește senzaționalul.\r\n\r\n- Ne preocupă foarte mult promovarea României în spațiul european și internațional. La ce resurse încă nevalorificate poate apela țara noastră pentru a se poziționa mult mai puternic pe piața turistică?\r\n\r\n- Sunt atât de multe. Am organizat la Bruxelles un eveniment foarte frumos Green and Blue Tourism, ocazie cu care am promovat Delta Dunării și Litoralul românesc. Încep de aici. Delta nu este valorificată la justa valoare. Suntem încă la început acolo. Litoralul, mai ales în Sud are nevoie de investiții masive și poate concura cu cele mai atractive locuri de același tip din Europa, cel puțin 3 luni pe an.\r\nTurismul balnear din România nu ajunge la 5% din potențialul pe care îl are. Studiile spun că 33% din apele termale și minerale din Europa sunt, unde credeți? În România! Cu toate acestea avem stațiuni montane sărăcite, lăsate într-o stare incredibilă. Pe de altă parte în România sunt și investiții mamut, cum este complexul de lângă București, bazate exclusiv pe potențialul termal. Deci lucrurile se mișcă.\r\nAlte zone care ar putea crește în perioada următoare ar fi pe turismul medical, de frumusețe, avem la Constanța spre exemplu o afacere de familie care stârnește invidia multor companii internaționale, Careless Beauty, care se laudă cu produse și servicii de îngrijire a tenului foarte căutate.\r\n\r\n- Europa este prima putere mondială în sectorul turistic. Ea se promovează prin branduri naționale. Sunteți unul dintre susținătorii necesității promovării unui brand turistic, o ”pălărie comună” ce se numește „Destination Europe”. Prin ce resurse financiare va fi susținută această campanie în 2016?\r\n\r\n- Bugetul pe 2016 este îmbogățit cu acest proiect pilot pe care l-am propus anul trecut. Suma este de jumătate de milion de euro. Am încredere că proiectul pilot va fi un succes și atunci, anual, vom avea un capitol bugetar dedicat promovării brandului turistic european la care și România să fie conectată.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Interviu cu Claudia Tapardel, INTERVIU nr.145','','inherit','closed','closed','','4853-revision-v1','','','2016-09-01 12:17:06','2016-09-01 10:17:06','',4853,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2016/09/01/4853-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4917,1,'2016-09-05 11:29:00','2016-09-05 09:29:00','Cel puțin cinci ani mai trebuiesc acestei stațiuni să-și închidă rănile arhitectonice și să înceapă să miroasă a parfum... imperial.

Celebrul vals \'Suvenir de Hercules Bath\', a fost compus chiar în salonul de cură. Orașul păstrează o serie de clădiri emblematice care se află în diverse stadii de deteriorare, conservare sau restaurare. Cazinoul cu coloane a fost construit între anii 1862-1864 în stil baroc austriac, sub îndrumarea arhitectului Wilhelm von Doderer. Clădirea cazinoului a cuprins o sală de spectacole, un restaurant și bazarul cu 14 bolți și 12 ferestre.

Aici, la începutul anilor 1900, a fost compus un vals dedicat stațiunii de pe Cerna și care a ajuns să fie cântat pe mai multe meridiane. Celebrul vals \'Suvenir de Hercules Bath\', a fost compus chiar în salonul de cură. Orașul păstrează o serie de clădiri emblematice care se află în diverse stadii de deteriorare, conservare sau restaurare. Cazinoul cu coloane a fost construit între anii 1862-1864 în stil baroc austriac, sub îndrumarea arhitectului Wilhelm von Doderer. Clădirea cazinoului a cuprins o sală de spectacole, un restaurant și bazarul cu 14 bolți și 12 ferestre. La etaj se afla \'Sala de Argint\', unde bogații vremii și capete veneau și pentru ruletă ori alte jocuri de noroc. Pe terasa Cazinoului se organizau baluri colorate cu celebrele valsuri austriece.\r\n\r\nRenumita stațiune este atestată documentar din anul 153 și își trage numele de la Hercules, care era protectorul familiei romane a împăratului Ulpius Traianus. Inspirați de frumusețea locurilor și de poveștile acestor meleaguri, mulți poeți și scriitori și-au dedicat creațiile acestei stațiuni, printre care Cristian Andersen, Vasile Alecsandri, George Coșbuc, Al. Petofi, Liviu Rebreanu, Nicolae Iorga, N. Xenopol, M. Sadoveanu, I. Minulescu, I. Slavici, Lucian Blaga și mulți alții.\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU

\r\nCererea turistică a determinat și apariția unor oferte pe măsură la Colibița, așezare pentru care autoritățile bistrițene au depus la ANT toate documentele necesare obținerii statutul de stațiune de interes local. Cel mai important potențial este cel natural, aceasta fiind una dintre cele două zone din țara noastră (alături de Soveja-Vrancea) cu cel mai pur aer. „În urma studiului de aer a rezultat că valoarea concentrației maxime de ozon măsurată în Colibița este de 90 micrograme/pe metru cub. Cote similare de puritate se regăsesc și în Alpi” - declară Emil Radu Moldovan, președintele Consiliului Județean Bistrița-Năsăud.
\r\nPotrivit legendei, în 1883, o fetiță din Bistrița, fiica unui sas înstărit, Hans Lewi, s-a vindecat de tuberculoză datorita aerului puternic în ozon. Și Erika Schuller, o arhitectă din Bistrița, a scăpat de teribila boală a vremii și a construit un sanatoriu cu 16 camere, unde erau tratați bolnavii de tuberculoză. Baza de tratament a funcționat până în 1944, cănd a fost distrus de un incendiu în timpul Războiului. Din 1923 până în 1975, Colibița a funcționat ca stațiune balneo-climaterică. În 1980 întreaga așezare, inclusiv stațiunea, au disparut, aici fiind amenajat un lac de acumulare.
\r\nPână în urmă cu 10 ani, la Colibița erau doar circa 50 de case ale localnicilor stramutati. Azi există 400 de case de vacanță, vile și pensiuni. Aici se pot face excursii, drumeții, ciclism montan, caiac, alpinism, pescuit, plimbări cu sania, dar și cu barca pe lac. Autoritățile județene au prevăzut pentru perioada 2014-2020 amenajarea unui domeniu schiabil ce va fi configurat din 13,8 kilometri de pârtii de schi, 7 instalații de transport pe cablu, 10 telegondole, 3 telescaune și 3 teleschiuri.

\r\nHotelul Bicaz din stațiunea Mamaia, este prima unitate de cazare tematică intrată în circuitul turistic în acest sezon estival. Atmosfera, costumele, decorurile amenajările exterioare sunt inspirate din peliculele ”Pirații din Caraibe”. Fiecare cameră a hotelului ce se numește „Pirates Resort Bicaz” deține un tablou mare inspirat din acțiunea filmului. Proprietarii, frații Dan și Cătălin Alexandrescu -, au spus că vechiul nume Bicaz, va dispărea treptat în viitorii ani.

Născut în 1981, Predescu și-a început cariera în Cluj, la hotelul Rimini, unde a avansat până la poziția de director general. Ulterior a condus hotelul de 4 stele Athos (tot din Cluj), a activat la București în domeniul F&B (hotel Caro). A plecat în SUA, unde a condus departamentul Food&Beverage al Island Country Club, apoi la Sheraton Club de Pins Alger, care deține cel mai mare complex de conferințe din Nordul Africii, respectiv la Lily Beach Resort din Maldive, unde a fost director Food&Beverages.\r\nALBA IULIA: Number 5
\r\nNumber 5 Boutique este numele hotelului ce va intra în circuitul turistic la Alba Iulia. Conform proiectului acesta va fi compus din subsol, parter și 3 etaje și va oferi 24 de camere, un restaurant, respectiv o sală de conferințe. Investitorul este Cosmin Matieș, managerul restaurantului Medieval Pub 13 din Alba Iulia. “Foarte mulți turiști, care luau masa în restaurant îmi cereau să le recomand un loc de cazare. Construcția unui hotel a venit ca urmare a creșterii acestor cereri”, a declarat Matieș. Suma alocată pentru acest boutique-hotel de 4 stele este estimată la circa 800.000 euro și provine din fonduri proprii. \r\nANGELA SIMION, ALEX BARBU & ION BADEA

Un studiu global arată că că ne aflăm pe locul al treilea în Europa după numărul hotelurilor de lux deținut de Capitală. La Ana Group și Arsenal au apărut directori noi iar la Mamaia intră în circuit primul hotel al... piraților. Nici că se putea mai bine.
\r\nBUCUREȘTI: pe locul 3
\r\nPotrivit companiei de cercetare de piață STR Global, Bucureștiul se află pe poziția a treia, dupa Praga și Budapesta, însă înainte de Varșovia și Sofia în ceea ce privește numărul hotelurilor de lux. Studiul nu se referă numai la hotelurile de 5 stele, ci la numărul proprietăților care îndeplinesc o serie de condiții valabile la nivel mondial pentru a fi considerate de lux. Conform specialiștilor STR Global Bucureștiul are 7 hoteluri de lux, de două ori mai puține decât Praga, cea mai cunoscută capitală din Europa Centrală și de Est din punct de vedere turistic. „Există un sistem la nivel internațional în funcție de care se clasifică hotelurile de lux, sistem stabilit de decenii“ - a declarat Sorin Ionescu, fondator și director al companiei de consultanță în domeniul hotelier Fivestar Hospitality. \r\nJW MARRIOTT: Investiție de 3 milioane
\r\nCu un puternic potențial de exprimare comercială (402 camere, 12 săli de conferință, 6 restaurante, un centru de business, o galerie de lux pentru shopping, cazino, spa și fitness), JW Marriott Grand Hotel din București a anunțat finalizarea unei investiții de 3 milioane de euro în modernizarea a două etaje. În total au fost renovate 102 camere, 5 apartamente, 2 apartamente prezidențiale și executive lounge. Aceasta reprezintă prima etapă din planurile de renovare a etajelor cu spații de cazare. Pentru respectivele operațiuni JW Marriott București ( clasificat la 5 stele) a apelat la un arhitect portughez, specializat în design pentru brandul JW Marriott. Noul mobilier a fost furnizat de către producători italieni și spanioli.
\r\nMAMAIA: Primul hotel tematic
\r\nHotelul Bicaz din stațiunea Mamaia, este prima unitate de cazare tematică intrată în circuitul turistic în acest sezon estival. Atmosfera, costumele, decorurile amenajările exterioare sunt inspirate din peliculele ”Pirații din Caraibe”. Fiecare cameră a hotelului ce se numește „Pirates Resort Bicaz” deține un tablou mare inspirat din acțiunea filmului. Proprietarii, frații Dan și Cătălin Alexandrescu -, au spus că vechiul nume Bicaz, va dispărea treptat în viitorii ani. Tot ei au mai declarat că unitatea va funcționa în acest an în regim de demipensiune și pensiune completă, urmând ca din sezonul viitor să fie vândute și pachete all inculsive. Hotelul, reclasificat de la 2 la 3 stele, oferă 158 de camere și 8 apartamente, cu o capacitate totală de 300 de locuri. Investitorii, frații Alexandrescu, și-au vândut anul trecut afacerea de condimente și ingrediente pentru prăjituri Alex & Comp către Fuchs și Dr. Oetker, pentru suma de 8 milioane de euro. Ei au investit în turism 6 milioane, sumă ce acoperă contravaloarea tranzacției, renovarea, decorarea și restandardizarea hotelului Pirates Resort Bicaz. \r\nMANAGEMENT: Directori noi la Ana și Arsenal
\r\nAlexandra Copos de Prada a predat conducerea executivă a Ana Hotels noului director general Christine Schillings. Decizia luată este una personală dar Alexandra va continua să conducă grupul Ana Pan și să se dedice dezvoltării unor proiecte antreprenoriale personale. Christine Schillings are o experiență de 30 de ani în cadrul Hilton Worldwide, unde a coordonat un portofoliu de 46 de hoteluri din Estul Europei, Turcia, Rusia și Israel. Înființat în 2007 Grupul Ana Hotels deține 7 unități în București, Poiana Brașov și Eforie Nord, cu o capacitate totală de cazare de 975 camere și peste 700 de angajati.
\r\nȘi la complexul Arsenal Park de la Orăștie, deținut de frații Marius și Emil Cristescu, s-a produs schimbarea managementului. Gabriel Predescu este noul director general iar misiunea sa este de a crește calitatea serviciilor.

\r\n\r\n\r\nSunt Junii Braşovului – un motiv de sărbătoare, în fiecare an, în prima săptămână după Paşti. E greu de definit de unde vine tradiţia Junilor Braşovului. Cronicarii germani ai Transilvaniei medievale vedeau obiceiul ca pe o sărbătoare a venirii primăverii şi o asociau cu rituri străvechi, probabil de pe vremea dacilor. Ştim că Societatea Junilor Bătrâni, unul dintre cele 7 grupuri de Juni braşoveni de astăzi, a luat fiinţă undeva în jurul anului 1877, însă protocoalele de organizare a cetelor sunt mult mai vechi. Tradiţia transmite locurile de adunare, hainele care se poartă, poziţionarea culorilor steagului românesc dar şi ordinea de defilare. \r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"4955,4956,4957,4958,4959,4960,4961,4962\"]\r\n\r\n„Ziua de Călări” este prima Duminică după Paşte iar Junii parcurg oraşul într-o defilare elegantă, lină dar plină de caracter şi de nerv. Am urmărit cum se adună dimineața grupurile în piaţa Unirii din Şcheii Braşovului – chiar lângă curtea Bisericii Sfântul Nicolae şi a celei mai vechi şcoli româneşti din Transilvania. Conform unui vechi ”ritual” se încolonează şi pornesc călare prin centrul istoric al Braşovului, coborând pe strada Mureşenilor, pe o latură a Pieţei Sfatului până la parc, şi urcând prin vechea cetate, pe strada Republicii.\r\n\r\nÎn „Ziua de Călări”\r\n\r\nDrepţi şi ţanţoşi, mai încruntaţi sau mai zâmbitori, vătafii, urmaţi de stegari şi armaşi, introduc fiecare grup. Junii Tineri cu jachete negre şi nasturi de argint sunt urmaţi de Junii Bătrâni, ce poartă o lentă tricoloră peste piept. Mii de oameni cu mii de telefoane şi camere foto, admiră, filmează, fotografiază. Călăreţii salută publicul cu „Hristos a Înviat” iar lumea răspunde, în valuri, iar şi iar. \r\n\r\nJunii Curcani sunt recunoscuți după căciulile negre „cu ţoc” (puţin pleoştite pe o parte) şi ornate cu pene de curcan. Caii Junilor vin de la hergheliile din toată ţara, de la Timişoara, până la Suceava. Unii trec în trap uşor atât de frumos, de parcă se ştiu priviţi şi admiraţi, alţii saltă nervos iar îngrijitorii îi ţin de frâuri. Urmează Junii Dorobanţi cu căciulile sure, model Mihai Viteazul şi Junii Braşovecheni. Caii sunt împodobiţi cu fire şi ciucuri tricolori, care se leagănă cadenţat. Pe sub poarta Şcheilor se iese din burgul coroanei (Kronstandt era numele săsesc al Braşovului) şi Junii se opresc pentru fotografii şi salută din nou mulţimea. Aici, pe strada Prundului nr. 1, Primăria a reabilitat o vilă în stil neoromânesc şi, la începutul lunii mai, a deschis-o publicului ca nou Centru de Informare Turistică a oraşului dar şi ca Sediu al Uniunii Junilor. Cămăşile Junilor Roşiori lucesc de îţi iau ochii, brodate cu fluturi ori trandafiri din paiete iar ultimul grup, cel al Junilor Albiori se întrece în strălucire şi îşi prezintă, galant, căciulile albe. Cetele se îndreaptă, pe străzile din ce în ce mai înguste, spre poienile din afara Şcheilor, către Pietrele lui Solomon. Mii de oameni îi urmează, în ziua luminoasă, albastră şi călduţă, ca într-un pelerinaj. Așa am făcut și noi. Iar ziua a fost norocoasă pentru toți fiind plină de soare și ferită de ploi. Plini de voie bună şi cu gândul la anunţata „serbare câmpenească” braşovenii merg pe jos astăzi cel puţin vreo şase kilometri. Câte unul se opreşte să culeagă de pe asfalt o paetă căzută dintr-un costum de jun, vechi de sute de ani. Nu râdeţi! E de păstrat căci nu oricine pune mâna pe aşa ceva!\r\n\r\nLa festin „între chietri”\r\n\r\nPână la Pietrele lui Solomon - care sunt de fapt niște stânci impresionante, atât prin dimensiuni cât și prin frumusețea lor sălbatică -, e cale lungă dar merită drumul: un râu subţirel străbate poiana în care sunt amenajate chioşcuri de lemn şi bănci pentru picnic. Dincolo de ele se ridică pietrele sure ale muntelui (seamănă cu căciulile călăreţilor). În zi de sărbătoare pentru Juni aici sunt zeci de corturi, micii sfârâie pe grătare iar alte bunătăţuri tradiţionale se încing în ceaune. Te ambiţionezi şi mergi mai departe, urcând pe buza unui defileu. Pădurea, peisajul, aerul curat şi muzica de voie bună ce răzbate până la tine te cheamă mai departe. „Între Chietri” este locul în care, prin tradiţie, Junii aruncau buzduganele. Astăzi se cântă Troparul Învierii, se joacă Hora Junilor iar apoi amiaza este deschisă vinului bun şi gustărilor (de la şunculiţe şi afumături până la ouă înroşite, drob şi cozonac ori pască). La acest capitol al remarcat expunerea gastronomică a grupului Transilvania Hotels & Travel, care a sponsorizat familia Junilor Braşovecheni. ”Am reușit să atragem și turiști și sperăm ca numărul lor să crească de la an la an. Suntem convinși că o asemenea sărbătoare, unică în România, ar merita o recunoaștere la nivel de patrimoniu spiritual imaterial UNESCO. Demersurile sunt în derulare și de aceea am considerat că grupul nostru trebuie să se implice cu devotament în susținerea evenimentului” - ne-a precizat Dan Maria, reprezentantul Transilvania Hotels & Travel. \r\n\r\nGrupurile de juni se împart pe sub steaguri, la mesele lungi de lemn. Se închină, curg urări, îmbrăţişări. Aplauzele, pupăturile îmbrățișările şi râsul se pierd printre notele melodiilor tradiţionale. Turiştii se plimbă pe caii de poveste, picură puțin, apoi mai iese soarele. Oricine ai fi ai vrea ca amiaza asta să nu se mai termine. Sărbătoarea Junilor se încheie în Duminica Tomii, pe la 6 spre seară. Traficul se redeschide iar Braşovul, mângâiat de paşii miilor de localnici ce au fost în centru să vadă Junii, îşi reia ritmul obişnuit. Dacă nici anul acesta nu aţi ajuns la Junii Braşovului, în 2017 sărbătoarea cade pe 30 Aprilie!\r\nSÎNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU

\r\n
De ce a devenit orașul de pe malurile Begăi o Capitală a Vinului? În primul rând pentru că s-a dedicat cu pasiune și devotament, de cînd a bătut primul gong (a se citi - s-a deschis în 2004 primul expo-salon de vinuri). Apoi datorită echipei condusă de către Lucia Pârvu - somelier, promotor, organizator, investitor în relațiile cu mass media de specialitate (iată o nouă profesie) și mai ales amprenta de marcă pusă pe fiecare ediție a Vinvest și a Vintest. Timp de 13 ani, publicul timișorean a fost educat să descopere, să înțeleagă, să iubească vinul. Și recenta ediție s-a adresat cu prioritate consumatorului final, care, ulterior, la hipermarket, supermarket, magazine de specialitate sau HoReCa (hoteluri, restaurante, catering) va recunoaște vinurile degustate. Alături de producători s-au regăsit în salon utilaje pentru îngrijirea plantațiilor, sisteme de susținere, întreținere și protejare a viței de vie, echipamente profesionale de etichetare și îmbuteliere, accesorii pentru vin etc. În acest an au participat în calitate de expozanți reprezentanți din 6 țări: România, Republica Moldova, Serbia, Ungaria, Germania, Portugalia și Italia. Ediţia a 13-a a Salonului Internaţional de Vinuri Vinvest a fost găzduită de Centrul Regional de Afaceri Timișoara unde timp de de trei zile (20-22 aprilie).\r\n

Cavaleri ai vinului scoateți dopul
\r\nPrintre oficialitățile care au acordat o atenție deosebită evenimentului s-au numărat europarlamentarul Maria Grapini, Florica Chiriță – Director General CCIAT, Titu Bojin – Președintele Consiliului Județean, Florin Faur - Director General APIA, reprezentanți ai Ordinului Saint Teodor din Vârșeț, delegația Organizației Turistice Vîrșeț, Dan Boboc, Ioan Nămoloșanu și Arina Antoce, trei dintre liderii ADAR etc. Un moment special a fost primirea în rândul Cavalerilor Ordinului Sfântului Teodor a domnului Iavor Radovankovici. Ca în fiecare an s-au înregistrat participări în premieră: Casa de Vinuri Cotnari, Crama Hermeziu, Tata și Fiul, Villa Vinea, Casa de Vinuri Huși, Asociația Vitipomicola Buziaș Silagiu, Crama Thesaurus, Crama Aramic, a distribuitorului de distilate Perun, precum și revenirea la eveniment a renumitului producător de vin – Cotnari și a Stațiunii de Cercetare-Dezvoltare pentru Viticultură și Vinificație Bujoru. Prezența investitorilor în salon a creat plusvaloare evenimentului. Dintre aceștia amintim: Vasile Lungu, Crama Hermeziu; Doru Husarciuc, Crama Dealul Dorului; Eugen Seracin, Domeniile Sara; Valentin Chelaru, Domeniul Kelaru; Mariana Gîrniță, Domeniile Vînju Mare; Victor Deleanu, Casa de Vinuri Cotnari; Ștefan Ionescu, 1000 de Chipuri etc. La standul ultimului producător am remarcat promovarea ediției limitate a unui vin roșu sec (Fetească neagră/Shiraz/Cabernet Franc), prezentat la sticlă dar și în casetă de lemn - e vorba de creația Wild Carpathia, comandat de Charlie Ottley producătorul serialului. Produs și îmbuteliat de către Divine Area, vinul s-a bucurat de o foarte bună primire. Dar una dintre marile atracții ale salonului a fost Roulette de Vin, organizat de Valdo Invest care pe perioada a circa 4 ore a antrenat marea majoritate a participanților.
\r\nSoiuri vechi, distincții noi
\r\nSalonul a fost vizitat de peste 2 600 de persoane. S-a vândut vin! Da, fără îndoială, majoritatea participanților fiind mulțumiți de scorurile comerciale înregistrate. Dar marele câștig îl reprezintă participarea activă cu concepte de marketing prietenoase, ele reprezentând o parte dintre cele mai bune soluții de creștere a vizibilității companiilor implicate. În paralel cu Vinvest s-a desfășurat și a 11-a ediție a Concursul Naţional de Vinuri şi Băuturi Alcoolice, organizat în colaborare cu ADAR (20-21 aprilie). Concursul VINVEST a adunat 122 probe. 30% din acestea au primit distincţii. S-au acordat medalii de aur, medalii de argint, dar și trei Mari Medalii de Aur: la vin alb - Crama Buduresca, Sauvignon Blanc Premium 2015 (87,2 puncte); vin rose - pentru Crama Hermeziu, Cabernet Sauvignon Rose 2015 (86,2 puncte); vin rosu - Vincon România pentru Pinot Noir 2015 (86,2 puncte). O altă noutate: a fost lansată a 3-a ediție a cărții ”Vechi Soiuri Românești de Viță de Vie” semnată de Ion M. Pușcă. Volumul a fost premiat de către Organizația Internațională a Viei și Vinului – Paris, Academia Oamenilor de Știință din România, Liga Scriitorilor Români. Această lucrare a apărut prin devotamentul domnului Constantin Dinel Cucu.
\r\nRecaș - Marea provocare

\r\nDe ce a devenit orașul de pe malurile Begăi o Capitală a Vinului? În primul rând pentru că s-a dedicat cu pasiune și devotament, de cînd a bătut primul gong (a se citi - s-a deschis în 2004 primul expo-salon de vinuri). Apoi datorită echipei condusă de către Lucia Pârvu - somelier, promotor, organizator, investitor în relațiile cu mass media de specialitate (iată o nouă profesie) și mai ales amprenta de marcă pusă pe fiecare ediție a Vinvest și a Vintest. Timp de 13 ani, publicul timișorean a fost educat să descopere, să înțeleagă, să iubească vinul. Și recenta ediție s-a adresat cu prioritate consumatorului final, care, ulterior, la hipermarket, supermarket, magazine de specialitate sau HoReCa (hoteluri, restaurante, catering) va recunoaște vinurile degustate. Alături de producători s-au regăsit în salon utilaje pentru îngrijirea plantațiilor, sisteme de susținere, întreținere și protejare a viței de vie, echipamente profesionale de etichetare și îmbuteliere, accesorii pentru vin etc. În acest an au participat în calitate de expozanți reprezentanți din 6 țări: România, Republica Moldova, Serbia, Ungaria, Germania, Portugalia și Italia. Ediţia a 13-a a Salonului Internaţional de Vinuri Vinvest a fost găzduită de Centrul Regional de Afaceri Timișoara unde timp de de trei zile (20-22 aprilie).
\r\nCavaleri ai vinului scoateți dopul
\r\nPrintre oficialitățile care au acordat o atenție deosebită evenimentului s-au numărat europarlamentarul Maria Grapini, Florica Chiriță – Director General CCIAT, Titu Bojin – Președintele Consiliului Județean, Florin Faur - Director General APIA, reprezentanți ai Ordinului Saint Teodor din Vârșeț, delegația Organizației Turistice Vîrșeț, Dan Boboc, Ioan Nămoloșanu și Arina Antoce, trei dintre liderii ADAR etc. Un moment special a fost primirea în rândul Cavalerilor Ordinului Sfântului Teodor a domnului Iavor Radovankovici. Ca în fiecare an s-au înregistrat participări în premieră: Casa de Vinuri Cotnari, Crama Hermeziu, Tata și Fiul, Villa Vinea, Casa de Vinuri Huși, Asociația Vitipomicola Buziaș Silagiu, Crama Thesaurus, Crama Aramic, a distribuitorului de distilate Perun, precum și revenirea la eveniment a renumitului producător de vin – Cotnari și a Stațiunii de Cercetare-Dezvoltare pentru Viticultură și Vinificație Bujoru. Prezența investitorilor în salon a creat plusvaloare evenimentului. Dintre aceștia amintim: Vasile Lungu, Crama Hermeziu; Doru Husarciuc, Crama Dealul Dorului; Eugen Seracin, Domeniile Sara; Valentin Chelaru, Domeniul Kelaru; Mariana Gîrniță, Domeniile Vînju Mare; Victor Deleanu, Casa de Vinuri Cotnari; Ștefan Ionescu, 1000 de Chipuri etc. La standul ultimului producător am remarcat promovarea ediției limitate a unui vin roșu sec (Fetească neagră/Shiraz/Cabernet Franc), prezentat la sticlă dar și în casetă de lemn - e vorba de creația Wild Carpathia, comandat de Charlie Ottley producătorul serialului. Produs și îmbuteliat de către Divine Area, vinul s-a bucurat de o foarte bună primire. Dar una dintre marile atracții ale salonului a fost Roulette de Vin, organizat de Valdo Invest care pe perioada a circa 4 ore a antrenat marea majoritate a participanților.
\r\nSoiuri vechi, distincții noi
\r\nSalonul a fost vizitat de peste 2 600 de persoane. S-a vândut vin! Da, fără îndoială, majoritatea participanților fiind mulțumiți de scorurile comerciale înregistrate. Dar marele câștig îl reprezintă participarea activă cu concepte de marketing prietenoase, ele reprezentând o parte dintre cele mai bune soluții de creștere a vizibilității companiilor implicate. În paralel cu Vinvest s-a desfășurat și a 11-a ediție a Concursul Naţional de Vinuri şi Băuturi Alcoolice, organizat în colaborare cu ADAR (20-21 aprilie). Concursul VINVEST a adunat 122 probe. 30% din acestea au primit distincţii. S-au acordat medalii de aur, medalii de argint, dar și trei Mari Medalii de Aur: la vin alb - Crama Buduresca, Sauvignon Blanc Premium 2015 (87,2 puncte); vin rose - pentru Crama Hermeziu, Cabernet Sauvignon Rose 2015 (86,2 puncte); vin rosu - Vincon România pentru Pinot Noir 2015 (86,2 puncte). O altă noutate: a fost lansată a 3-a ediție a cărții ”Vechi Soiuri Românești de Viță de Vie” semnată de Ion M. Pușcă. Volumul a fost premiat de către Organizația Internațională a Viei și Vinului – Paris, Academia Oamenilor de Știință din România, Liga Scriitorilor Români. Această lucrare a apărut prin devotamentul domnului Constantin Dinel Cucu.
\r\nRecaș - Marea provocare
\r\nJurnaliştii acreditați au participat la o vizită cu degustare de vinuri la cramele Recaș, unde au avut posibilitatea să vadă noile plantațiile de vie și tehnologii, colecțiile de vinuri, care recomandă Recașul drept unul dintre cei mai importanți investitori din industria vinului românesc.

\r\nBRANSON - SpaceShipTwo e gata
\r\nDupă ce primul prototip al navetei SpaceShipTwo a fost distrus într-un tragic accident, în octombrie 2014 (când co-pilotul Michael Alsbury a murit, iar pilotul Peter Siebold a fost rănit), de curând a fost finalizat al doilea prototip al navetei ce urmează să fie lansat din WhiteKnightTwo, aparținând tot Virgin Galactic, la o altitudine de 15,5 kilometri. După separare, SpaceShipTwo își va activa motorul și va accelera până la 4.000 de km pe oră, iar pasagerii vor trăi cinci minute de lipsă a gravitației. Naveta, fabricată de compania miliardarului Richard Branson, are o lungime de 18,3 metri, iar deschiderea aripilor este de 8,3 metri. Ea deține o capacitate de 8 persoane, dintre care 2 piloți. SpaceShipTwo a fost proiectat să ajungă la o altitudine de peste 100 de kilometri.
\r\nBun prieten al miliardarului britanic, actorul Harisson Ford, cunoscut publicului și pentru rolul căpitanului Solo din \"Războiul stelelor\" , prezent la eveniment, a fost fascinat de forma navetei. Ea va porni la drum din New Mexico unde activează primul aeroport din lume construit de Branson pentru zborurile în spațiu.
\r\nClădirea a costat peste 200 de milioane de dolari. Până acum amatorii de turism spațial au cumpărat circa 450 de bilete, în valoare de 200.000 de dolari bucata, pentru a zbura în spațiu. Călătoriile vor dura două ore și jumătate.\r\nALEX BARBU

\r\nAIR FRANCE: 70 de ani de la prima stewardesă \r\n\r\nÎn aprilie 1946 Air France a primit la bordul aeronavelor sale primele 11 femei însoțitoare de bord. Până în 1946, echipajul auxiliar de la bordul aeronavelor companiei era asigurat numai de însoțitori de bord bărbați, recrutați în primă fază din personalul restaurantelor de lux din Paris. În prezent, dintre cei 13.500 de însoțitori de bord, peste 8.800 sunt femei. În 1938 primul însoțitor de bord este angajat la Air France. Datorită zborurilor mai lungi, cum ar fi Paris-New York care dura până la 23 ore și 45 de minute, compania a consolidat forța de muncă prin angajarea primelor stewardese. Dar ele nu au avut aceleași sarcini cu omologii lor bărbați. Însoțitorii de bord pregăteau mesele și le serveau pasagerilor, în timp ce misiunea părții feminine era de a oferi o primire călduroasă, de a asigura confortul pasagerilor și de a-i familiariza cu stilul francez de a călători. \r\n\r\nPrimele uniforme ale însoțitoarelor de bord au avut o înfățișare foarte „militară”. Ele au purtat în 1946 semnătura Georgettei Rénal. Cinci ani mai târziu ea a fost restilizată de Georgette de Trèze. În anii `60, Air France i-a solicitat lui Christian Dior o nouă linie.

Sponsorizarea constă în alocarea unor importante cantități de vopseluri cu ajutorul cărora artiști, voluntari, studenți, elevi contribuie la redarea strălucirii unor case emblematice pentru unele așezări rurale. Aplaudăm la scenă deschisă inițiativa. Policolor arată că lumea românească poate să-și schimbe discursul, să lege parteneriate durabile cu administrații de stat. Și mai ales că asumarea responsabilității, devotamentul și pasiunea oamenilor, pot face minuni care durează mai mult decât trei zile. Campania ”Culorile României” este una dintre ele.
\r\n... Delațiunea și turnătoria fac casă bună cu anonimatul. Dacă până în urmă cu aproape trei decenii acest ”sport” se practica numai pe hârtie azi el a căpătat dimensiuni electronice. Cu ajutorul internetului oricine poate reclama pe orice iar resposabilitatea poate fi ascunsă sub o adresă de mail. Deci, atenție, anonimul poate fi detectat. Chestia aia cu... O semnăm toți, dar o dăm anonimă..., nu prea mai stă în picioare în comunicarea modernă. Modernă, modernă, dar anonimele sunt luate în considerație chiar și azi. De exemplu Consiliul Concurenței a și declanșat în urma unei sesizări anonime, postată pe Facebook, o investigație pe piața produselor și a pachetelor de servicii turistice privind o posibilă încălcare a regulilor de concurență în lumea agențiilor de turism. S-ar fi pus la cale practicarea unui preț minim de vânzare de către vreo 12 agenții de turism în special pe cursele charter cu avionul. ANAT a dat un răspuns elegant (cu nuanțe ironice subînțelese), arătându-și disponibilitatea de a colabora pentru clarificarea lucrurilor. Ceva de genul, mai citiți, mai puneți mâna pe carte băieți. Se pare că nu tot ce e anonim, cel puțin în travel, zboară și se mănîncă.\r\n\r\n
... Am auzit încă una gogonată rău de tot în materie de promovare... gratuită. Aflată la o conferință de presă găzduită de comunitatea săsească din România, doamna Anca Nedea, eleganta președintă de la ANT a caligrafiat în aer un apel către bloggeri de a sprijini turismul românesc ca și până acum - eficient dar mai ales pe gratis.
\r\nTeleviziunile și presa scrisă par niște vampiri ce sug sîngele publicității turistice cu bugete mici. Pe când bloggerii o pot face gratuit iar Internetul, sirena electronică a comunicării, se mulțumește cu resturi ce cad de pe marginea mesei. Ei, nu mai e chiar așa. După ce au urmărit cum dispar cu sutele, bloggerii care s-au trezit din euforie și-au făcut firme. Și au început să taie facturi. Cool nu?\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU

\nBRANSON - SpaceShipTwo e gata
\nDupă ce primul prototip al navetei SpaceShipTwo a fost distrus într-un tragic accident, în octombrie 2014 (când co-pilotul Michael Alsbury a murit, iar pilotul Peter Siebold a fost rănit), de curând a fost finalizat al doilea prototip al navetei ce urmează să fie lansat din WhiteKnightTwo, aparținând tot Virgin Galactic, la o altitudine de 15,5 kilometri. După separare, SpaceShipTwo își va activa motorul și va accelera până la 4.000 de km pe oră, iar pasagerii vor trăi cinci minute de lipsă a gravitației. Naveta, fabricată de compania miliardarului Richard Branson, are o lungime de 18,3 metri, iar deschiderea aripilor este de 8,3 metri. Ea deține o capacitate de 8 persoane, dintre care 2 piloți. SpaceShipTwo a fost proiectat să ajungă la o altitudine de peste 100 de kilometri.
\nBun prieten al miliardarului britanic, actorul Harisson Ford, cunoscut publicului și pentru rolul căpitanului Solo din \"Războiul stelelor\" , prezent la eveniment, a fost fascinat de forma navetei. Ea va porni la drum din New Mexico unde activează primul aeroport din lume construit de Branson pentru zborurile în spațiu.
\nClădirea a costat peste 200 de milioane de dolari. Până acum amatorii de turism spațial au cumpărat circa 450 de bilete, în valoare de 200.000 de dolari bucata, pentru a zbura în spațiu. Călătoriile vor dura două ore și jumătate.\nALEX BARBU

De ce a devenit orașul de pe malurile Begăi o Capitală a Vinului? În primul rând pentru că s-a dedicat cu pasiune și devotament, de cînd a bătut primul gong (a se citi - s-a deschis în 2004 primul expo-salon de vinuri). Apoi datorită echipei condusă de către Lucia Pârvu - somelier, promotor, organizator, investitor în relațiile cu mass media de specialitate (iată o nouă profesie) și mai ales amprenta de marcă pusă pe fiecare ediție a Vinvest și a Vintest. Timp de 13 ani, publicul timișorean a fost educat să descopere, să înțeleagă, să iubească vinul. Și recenta ediție s-a adresat cu prioritate consumatorului final, care, ulterior, la hipermarket, supermarket, magazine de specialitate sau HoReCa (hoteluri, restaurante, catering) va recunoaște vinurile degustate. Alături de producători s-au regăsit în salon utilaje pentru îngrijirea plantațiilor, sisteme de susținere, întreținere și protejare a viței de vie, echipamente profesionale de etichetare și îmbuteliere, accesorii pentru vin etc. În acest an au participat în calitate de expozanți reprezentanți din 6 țări: România, Republica Moldova, Serbia, Ungaria, Germania, Portugalia și Italia. Ediţia a 13-a a Salonului Internaţional de Vinuri Vinvest a fost găzduită de Centrul Regional de Afaceri Timișoara unde timp de de trei zile (20-22 aprilie).\n\n
\nCavaleri ai vinului scoateți dopul
\nPrintre oficialitățile care au acordat o atenție deosebită evenimentului s-au numărat europarlamentarul Maria Grapini, Florica Chiriță – Director General CCIAT, Titu Bojin – Președintele Consiliului Județean, Florin Faur - Director General APIA, reprezentanți ai Ordinului Saint Teodor din Vârșeț, delegația Organizației Turistice Vîrșeț, Dan Boboc, Ioan Nămoloșanu și Arina Antoce, trei dintre liderii ADAR etc. Un moment special a fost primirea în rândul Cavalerilor Ordinului Sfântului Teodor a domnului Iavor Radovankovici. Ca în fiecare an s-au înregistrat participări în premieră: Casa de Vinuri Cotnari, Crama Hermeziu, Tata și Fiul, Villa Vinea, Casa de Vinuri Huși, Asociația Vitipomicola Buziaș Silagiu, Crama Thesaurus, Crama Aramic, a distribuitorului de distilate Perun, precum și revenirea la eveniment a renumitului producător de vin – Cotnari și a Stațiunii de Cercetare-Dezvoltare pentru Viticultură și Vinificație Bujoru. Prezența investitorilor în salon a creat plusvaloare evenimentului. Dintre aceștia amintim: Vasile Lungu, Crama Hermeziu; Doru Husarciuc, Crama Dealul Dorului; Eugen Seracin, Domeniile Sara; Valentin Chelaru, Domeniul Kelaru; Mariana Gîrniță, Domeniile Vînju Mare; Victor Deleanu, Casa de Vinuri Cotnari; Ștefan Ionescu, 1000 de Chipuri etc. La standul ultimului producător am remarcat promovarea ediției limitate a unui vin roșu sec (Fetească neagră/Shiraz/Cabernet Franc), prezentat la sticlă dar și în casetă de lemn - e vorba de creația Wild Carpathia, comandat de Charlie Ottley producătorul serialului. Produs și îmbuteliat de către Divine Area, vinul s-a bucurat de o foarte bună primire. Dar una dintre marile atracții ale salonului a fost Roulette de Vin, organizat de Valdo Invest care pe perioada a circa 4 ore a antrenat marea majoritate a participanților.
\nSoiuri vechi, distincții noi
\nSalonul a fost vizitat de peste 2 600 de persoane. S-a vândut vin! Da, fără îndoială, majoritatea participanților fiind mulțumiți de scorurile comerciale înregistrate. Dar marele câștig îl reprezintă participarea activă cu concepte de marketing prietenoase, ele reprezentând o parte dintre cele mai bune soluții de creștere a vizibilității companiilor implicate. În paralel cu Vinvest s-a desfășurat și a 11-a ediție a Concursul Naţional de Vinuri şi Băuturi Alcoolice, organizat în colaborare cu ADAR (20-21 aprilie). Concursul VINVEST a adunat 122 probe. 30% din acestea au primit distincţii. S-au acordat medalii de aur, medalii de argint, dar și trei Mari Medalii de Aur: la vin alb - Crama Buduresca, Sauvignon Blanc Premium 2015 (87,2 puncte); vin rose - pentru Crama Hermeziu, Cabernet Sauvignon Rose 2015 (86,2 puncte); vin rosu - Vincon România pentru Pinot Noir 2015 (86,2 puncte). O altă noutate: a fost lansată a 3-a ediție a cărții ”Vechi Soiuri Românești de Viță de Vie” semnată de Ion M. Pușcă. Volumul a fost premiat de către Organizația Internațională a Viei și Vinului – Paris, Academia Oamenilor de Știință din România, Liga Scriitorilor Români. Această lucrare a apărut prin devotamentul domnului Constantin Dinel Cucu.
\nRecaș - Marea provocare
\nJurnaliştii acreditați au participat la o vizită cu degustare de vinuri la cramele Recaș, unde au avut posibilitatea să vadă noile plantațiile de vie și tehnologii, colecțiile de vinuri, care recomandă Recașul drept unul dintre cei mai importanți investitori din industria vinului românesc. Degustările au fost, se înțelege, însoțite de mâncăruri tradiționale și voie bună. Traveller Magazin a fost unul dintre cei mai apreciați Parteneri media ai evenimentului.

Concursul VINVEST a adunat 122 probe. 30% din acestea au primit distincţii. S-au acordat medalii de aur, medalii de argint, dar și trei Mari Medalii de Aur: la vin alb - Crama Buduresca, Sauvignon Blanc Premium 2015 (87,2 puncte); vin rose - pentru Crama Hermeziu, Cabernet Sauvignon Rose 2015 (86,2 puncte); vin rosu - Vincon România pentru Pinot Noir 2015 (86,2 puncte). O altă noutate: a fost lansată a 3-a ediție a cărții ”Vechi Soiuri Românești de Viță de Vie” semnată de Ion M. Pușcă. Volumul a fost premiat de către Organizația Internațională a Viei și Vinului – Paris, Academia Oamenilor de Știință din România, Liga Scriitorilor Români. Această lucrare a apărut prin devotamentul domnului Constantin Dinel Cucu.
\r\nRecaș - Marea provocare
\r\nJurnaliştii acreditați au participat la o vizită cu degustare de vinuri la cramele Recaș, unde au avut posibilitatea să vadă noile plantațiile de vie și tehnologii, colecțiile de vinuri, care recomandă Recașul drept unul dintre cei mai importanți investitori din industria vinului românesc. Degustările au fost, se înțelege, însoțite de mâncăruri tradiționale și voie bună. Traveller Magazin a fost unul dintre cei mai apreciați Parteneri media ai evenimentului.

La Ana Group și Arsenal au apărut directori noi iar la Mamaia intră în circuit primul hotel al... piraților. Nici că se putea mai bine.\n\n
BUCUREȘTI: pe locul 3
\nPotrivit companiei de cercetare de piață STR Global, Bucureștiul se află pe poziția a treia, dupa Praga și Budapesta, însă înainte de Varșovia și Sofia în ceea ce privește numărul hotelurilor de lux. Studiul nu se referă numai la hotelurile de 5 stele, ci la numărul proprietăților care îndeplinesc o serie de condiții valabile la nivel mondial pentru a fi considerate de lux. Conform specialiștilor STR Global Bucureștiul are 7 hoteluri de lux, de două ori mai puține decât Praga, cea mai cunoscută capitală din Europa Centrală și de Est din punct de vedere turistic. „Există un sistem la nivel internațional în funcție de care se clasifică hotelurile de lux, sistem stabilit de decenii“ - a declarat Sorin Ionescu, fondator și director al companiei de consultanță în domeniul hotelier Fivestar Hospitality. \nJW MARRIOTT: Investiție de 3 milioane\n\n
\nCu un puternic potențial de exprimare comercială (402 camere, 12 săli de conferință, 6 restaurante, un centru de business, o galerie de lux pentru shopping, cazino, spa și fitness), JW Marriott Grand Hotel din București a anunțat finalizarea unei investiții de 3 milioane de euro în modernizarea a două etaje. În total au fost renovate 102 camere, 5 apartamente, 2 apartamente prezidențiale și executive lounge. Aceasta reprezintă prima etapă din planurile de renovare a etajelor cu spații de cazare. Pentru respectivele operațiuni JW Marriott București ( clasificat la 5 stele) a apelat la un arhitect portughez, specializat în design pentru brandul JW Marriott. Noul mobilier a fost furnizat de către producători italieni și spanioli.
\nMAMAIA: Primul hotel tematic
\nHotelul Bicaz din stațiunea Mamaia, este prima unitate de cazare tematică intrată în circuitul turistic în acest sezon estival. Atmosfera, costumele, decorurile amenajările exterioare sunt inspirate din peliculele ”Pirații din Caraibe”. Fiecare cameră a hotelului ce se numește „Pirates Resort Bicaz” deține un tablou mare inspirat din acțiunea filmului. Proprietarii, frații Dan și Cătălin Alexandrescu -, au spus că vechiul nume Bicaz, va dispărea treptat în viitorii ani. Tot ei au mai declarat că unitatea va funcționa în acest an în regim de demipensiune și pensiune completă, urmând ca din sezonul viitor să fie vândute și pachete all inculsive. Hotelul, reclasificat de la 2 la 3 stele, oferă 158 de camere și 8 apartamente, cu o capacitate totală de 300 de locuri. Investitorii, frații Alexandrescu, și-au vândut anul trecut afacerea de condimente și ingrediente pentru prăjituri Alex & Comp către Fuchs și Dr. Oetker, pentru suma de 8 milioane de euro. Ei au investit în turism 6 milioane, sumă ce acoperă contravaloarea tranzacției, renovarea, decorarea și restandardizarea hotelului Pirates Resort Bicaz. \nMANAGEMENT: Directori noi la Ana și Arsenal
\nAlexandra Copos de Prada a predat conducerea executivă a Ana Hotels noului director general Christine Schillings. Decizia luată este una personală dar Alexandra va continua să conducă grupul Ana Pan și să se dedice dezvoltării unor proiecte antreprenoriale personale. Christine Schillings are o experiență de 30 de ani în cadrul Hilton Worldwide, unde a coordonat un portofoliu de 46 de hoteluri din Estul Europei, Turcia, Rusia și Israel. Înființat în 2007 Grupul Ana Hotels deține 7 unități în București, Poiana Brașov și Eforie Nord, cu o capacitate totală de cazare de 975 camere și peste 700 de angajati.
\nȘi la complexul Arsenal Park de la Orăștie, deținut de frații Marius și Emil Cristescu, s-a produs schimbarea managementului. Gabriel Predescu este noul director general iar misiunea sa este de a crește calitatea serviciilor. Născut în 1981, Predescu și-a început cariera în Cluj, la hotelul Rimini, unde a avansat până la poziția de director general. Ulterior a condus hotelul de 4 stele Athos (tot din Cluj), a activat la București în domeniul F&B (hotel Caro). A plecat în SUA, unde a condus departamentul Food&Beverage al Island Country Club, apoi la Sheraton Club de Pins Alger, care deține cel mai mare complex de conferințe din Nordul Africii, respectiv la Lily Beach Resort din Maldive, unde a fost director Food&Beverages.\nALBA IULIA: Number 5

BUCUREȘTI: pe locul 3
\r\nPotrivit companiei de cercetare de piață STR Global, Bucureștiul se află pe poziția a treia, dupa Praga și Budapesta, însă înainte de Varșovia și Sofia în ceea ce privește numărul hotelurilor de lux. Studiul nu se referă numai la hotelurile de 5 stele, ci la numărul proprietăților care îndeplinesc o serie de condiții valabile la nivel mondial pentru a fi considerate de lux. Conform specialiștilor STR Global Bucureștiul are 7 hoteluri de lux, de două ori mai puține decât Praga, cea mai cunoscută capitală din Europa Centrală și de Est din punct de vedere turistic. „Există un sistem la nivel internațional în funcție de care se clasifică hotelurile de lux, sistem stabilit de decenii“ - a declarat Sorin Ionescu, fondator și director al companiei de consultanță în domeniul hotelier Fivestar Hospitality. \r\nJW MARRIOTT: Investiție de 3 milioane\r\n\r\n
Cu un puternic potențial de exprimare comercială (402 camere, 12 săli de conferință, 6 restaurante, un centru de business, o galerie de lux pentru shopping, cazino, spa și fitness), JW Marriott Grand Hotel din București a anunțat finalizarea unei investiții de 3 milioane de euro în modernizarea a două etaje. În total au fost renovate 102 camere, 5 apartamente, 2 apartamente prezidențiale și executive lounge. Aceasta reprezintă prima etapă din planurile de renovare a etajelor cu spații de cazare. Pentru respectivele operațiuni JW Marriott București ( clasificat la 5 stele) a apelat la un arhitect portughez, specializat în design pentru brandul JW Marriott. Noul mobilier a fost furnizat de către producători italieni și spanioli.\r\n\r\n
MAMAIA: Primul hotel tematic
\r\nHotelul Bicaz din stațiunea Mamaia, este prima unitate de cazare tematică intrată în circuitul turistic în acest sezon estival. Atmosfera, costumele, decorurile amenajările exterioare sunt inspirate din peliculele ”Pirații din Caraibe”. Fiecare cameră a hotelului ce se numește „Pirates Resort Bicaz” deține un tablou mare inspirat din acțiunea filmului. Proprietarii, frații Dan și Cătălin Alexandrescu -, au spus că vechiul nume Bicaz, va dispărea treptat în viitorii ani. Tot ei au mai declarat că unitatea va funcționa în acest an în regim de demipensiune și pensiune completă, urmând ca din sezonul viitor să fie vândute și pachete all inculsive. Hotelul, reclasificat de la 2 la 3 stele, oferă 158 de camere și 8 apartamente, cu o capacitate totală de 300 de locuri. Investitorii, frații Alexandrescu, și-au vândut anul trecut afacerea de condimente și ingrediente pentru prăjituri Alex & Comp către Fuchs și Dr. Oetker, pentru suma de 8 milioane de euro. Ei au investit în turism 6 milioane, sumă ce acoperă contravaloarea tranzacției, renovarea, decorarea și restandardizarea hotelului Pirates Resort Bicaz. \r\nMANAGEMENT: Directori noi la Ana și Arsenal
\r\nAlexandra Copos de Prada a predat conducerea executivă a Ana Hotels noului director general Christine Schillings. Decizia luată este una personală dar Alexandra va continua să conducă grupul Ana Pan și să se dedice dezvoltării unor proiecte antreprenoriale personale. Christine Schillings are o experiență de 30 de ani în cadrul Hilton Worldwide, unde a coordonat un portofoliu de 46 de hoteluri din Estul Europei, Turcia, Rusia și Israel. Înființat în 2007 Grupul Ana Hotels deține 7 unități în București, Poiana Brașov și Eforie Nord, cu o capacitate totală de cazare de 975 camere și peste 700 de angajati.
\r\nȘi la complexul Arsenal Park de la Orăștie, deținut de frații Marius și Emil Cristescu, s-a produs schimbarea managementului. Gabriel Predescu este noul director general iar misiunea sa este de a crește calitatea serviciilor. Născut în 1981, Predescu și-a început cariera în Cluj, la hotelul Rimini, unde a avansat până la poziția de director general. Ulterior a condus hotelul de 4 stele Athos (tot din Cluj), a activat la București în domeniul F&B (hotel Caro). A plecat în SUA, unde a condus departamentul Food&Beverage al Island Country Club, apoi la Sheraton Club de Pins Alger, care deține cel mai mare complex de conferințe din Nordul Africii, respectiv la Lily Beach Resort din Maldive, unde a fost director Food&Beverages.\r\nALBA IULIA: Number 5

În plus, fiecare călăreț a asistat la evoluția celorlalte cupluri și a avut ocazia să asculte și să învețe din sfaturile oferite de antrenor. Iubitorii de echitație au putut urmări antrenamentele și demonstrațiile în manejul acoperit al clubului Equestria accesul fiind liber. (ALEX BARBU)\nTASTE AMBASSADORS - O altă lume
\nMaeștrii bucătari, sau cum sunt alintați azi Chefii Joseph Hadad, Ștefan Popescu, Ana Consulea, Adrian Hădean, Ioan Florescu, Mihai Neacșu, John Menumorut, Cătălin Jeroiu, Pippo Giuseppe, Emanuel Mocanu și mulți alții, au fost actorii principali ai ai show-ului internațional Taste Ambassadors. El a fost dublat, la hotelul Radisson Blu din Capitală, de o expoziție cu produse variate, de la vinuri până la noi tipuri de cafea, de la ingrediente până la ustensile care fac viața mai gustoasă și mai simplă în bucătăriile profesioniste. Manifestarea a fost o premieră. Ea se va repeta în fiecare an. Cele câteva sute de participanți, au urmărit transformarea produselor de bază (carne, legume, fructe), în veritabile opere de artă. Organizatorii au precizat că ”Taste Ambassadors” își dorește să fie ”un nou concept de eveniment unde chefii, barmanii profesioniști, administratorii și proprietarii de restaurante dar și achizitorii din retailul local și internațional -, să descopere noutățile menite să reformuleze prepararea produselor alimentare și băuturilor pe piața românească”. Sfatul nostru, după ce am urmărit mai multe demonstrații: nu încercați acasă, n-o să vă iasă! (C. MARIAN)\nCOLIBIȚA - aer pur și legende de la 1883
\nCererea turistică a determinat și apariția unor oferte pe măsură la Colibița, așezare pentru care autoritățile bistrițene au depus la ANT toate documentele necesare obținerii statutul de stațiune de interes local. Cel mai important potențial este cel natural, aceasta fiind una dintre cele două zone din țara noastră (alături de Soveja-Vrancea) cu cel mai pur aer. „În urma studiului de aer a rezultat că valoarea concentrației maxime de ozon măsurată în Colibița este de 90 micrograme/pe metru cub. Cote similare de puritate se regăsesc și în Alpi” - declară Emil Radu Moldovan, președintele Consiliului Județean Bistrița-Năsăud.
\nPotrivit legendei, în 1883, o fetiță din Bistrița, fiica unui sas înstărit, Hans Lewi, s-a vindecat de tuberculoză datorita aerului puternic în ozon. Și Erika Schuller, o arhitectă din Bistrița, a scăpat de teribila boală a vremii și a construit un sanatoriu cu 16 camere, unde erau tratați bolnavii de tuberculoză. Baza de tratament a funcționat până în 1944, cănd a fost distrus de un incendiu în timpul Războiului. Din 1923 până în 1975, Colibița a funcționat ca stațiune balneo-climaterică. În 1980 întreaga așezare, inclusiv stațiunea, au disparut, aici fiind amenajat un lac de acumulare.
\nPână în urmă cu 10 ani, la Colibița erau doar circa 50 de case ale localnicilor stramutati. Azi există 400 de case de vacanță, vile și pensiuni. Aici se pot face excursii, drumeții, ciclism montan, caiac, alpinism, pescuit, plimbări cu sania, dar și cu barca pe lac. Autoritățile județene au prevăzut pentru perioada 2014-2020 amenajarea unui domeniu schiabil ce va fi configurat din 13,8 kilometri de pârtii de schi, 7 instalații de transport pe cablu, 10 telegondole, 3 telescaune și 3 teleschiuri.
\nCARAIMAN - O altă soluție pentru Eroi
\nDupă ce s-au încercat diverse variante, de la accesări de fonduri europene până la granturi norvegiene, inclusiv o campanie de strîngere de resurse financiare ”Dați un ban pentru Caraiman”, care nu s-au bucurat de succes, Ministerul Apărării Naționale a luat decizia de a se ocupa de reabilitatea Monumentului Eroilor-Cruce de pe Masivul Caraiman. Practic el a fost trecut - conform unui comunicat de presă din domeniul public al Orașului Bușteni în domeniul public al statului, direct în administrarea Ministerului. Decizia a fost luată „În semn de omagiu adus sacrificiului suprem al celor căzuți în războiul de reîntregire a neamului, M.Ap.N. își propune finalizarea lucrărilor în anul celebrării centenarului Marii Uniri. Monumentul a fost construit între anii 1926 și 1928 pe Muntele Caraiman, la altitudinea de 2291 metri, pentru a cinsti memoria celor căzuți în Primul Război Mondial. La 14 septembrie 1928, a avut loc inaugurarea și sfințirea acestuia”. se precizează în comunicat.

El este și fondatorul acestei organizații pe care a înființat-o în urmă cu 26 de ani, împreună cu alți cinci investitori din turism. Burcea a fost și secretar de stat în Ministerul Turismului (2001-2002). Programul său de management la conducerea ANAT, pentru următorii doi ani, vizează rezolvarea unor probleme stringente printre care: găsirea unei variante potrivită pentru piața românească de asigurare a agențiilor de turism în caz de insolvență și faliment, completarea Contractului cu turistul, respectiv punerea în aplicare a Legii voucherelor de vacanță, pentru care ANAT a luptat 11 ani. Din conducerea noului Consiliu Director fac parte personalități ale travel-ului românesc, precum Adrian Voican și Ciprian Popescu (prim-vicepreședinți), Antonio Niţu, George Sorin Nicolescu, Lucian Boronea, Mircea Vladu (vicepreședinți).\n\nSPRINGTIME SUSȚINE „CĂRȚILE COPILĂRIEI”

Parteneriatul între Springtime și Asociația Curtea Veche a început la cea de-a XXII-a ediții a Târgului Internaţional Gaudeamus” - a precizat Loredana Vătăvoiu, Brand Manager Springtime.\n\nDELTA VIE LA MUZEU \n\nAsociația “Ivan Patzaichin – Mila 23” și partenerii săi, Societatea Ornitologică Română și Muzeul Național al Satului “Dimitrie Gusti” au deschis Centrul de promovare și educație despre Delta Dunării și păsări amplasat chiar în incinta Muzeului. Prin realizarea unui set de activități educative, de informare și de agrement cu lotci din Deltă, acest Centru va deveni o vitrină a turismului lent din Delta Dunării. În cadrul evenimentului a fost lansat programul de agrement cu lotca și au avut loc exerciții de birdwatching. Pe lângă deja celebrele lotci marca Patzaikin, pe lacul Herăstrău (porțiunea de apă adiacentă Muzeului) au fost instalate și două insule plutitoare acoperite cu stuf pentru cuibărirea păsărilor din zonă.\n\nPESTE 100 DE PROIECTE TRANSFRONTALIERE

Aceștia au fost încălecați de Maria Ardelea Bogoescu și Ozana Moraru care și-au etalat îndemânarea și eleganța.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nÎn cadrul Clinicii de Dresaj, caii și călăreții înscriși au avut ocazia să exerseze și să-și perfecționeze tehnicile cu sprijinul profesionistului olandez. În plus, fiecare călăreț a asistat la evoluția celorlalte cupluri și a avut ocazia să asculte și să învețe din sfaturile oferite de antrenor. Iubitorii de echitație au putut urmări antrenamentele și demonstrațiile în manejul acoperit al clubului Equestria accesul fiind liber. (ALEX BARBU)\r\nTASTE AMBASSADORS - O altă lume
\r\nMaeștrii bucătari, sau cum sunt alintați azi Chefii Joseph Hadad, Ștefan Popescu, Ana Consulea, Adrian Hădean, Ioan Florescu, Mihai Neacșu, John Menumorut, Cătălin Jeroiu, Pippo Giuseppe, Emanuel Mocanu și mulți alții, au fost actorii principali ai ai show-ului internațional Taste Ambassadors. El a fost dublat, la hotelul Radisson Blu din Capitală, de o expoziție cu produse variate, de la vinuri până la noi tipuri de cafea, de la ingrediente până la ustensile care fac viața mai gustoasă și mai simplă în bucătăriile profesioniste. Manifestarea a fost o premieră. Ea se va repeta în fiecare an. Cele câteva sute de participanți, au urmărit transformarea produselor de bază (carne, legume, fructe), în veritabile opere de artă. Organizatorii au precizat că ”Taste Ambassadors” își dorește să fie ”un nou concept de eveniment unde chefii, barmanii profesioniști, administratorii și proprietarii de restaurante dar și achizitorii din retailul local și internațional -, să descopere noutățile menite să reformuleze prepararea produselor alimentare și băuturilor pe piața românească”. Sfatul nostru, după ce am urmărit mai multe demonstrații: nu încercați acasă, n-o să vă iasă! (C. MARIAN)\r\nCOLIBIȚA - aer pur și legende de la 1883
\r\nCererea turistică a determinat și apariția unor oferte pe măsură la Colibița, așezare pentru care autoritățile bistrițene au depus la ANT toate documentele necesare obținerii statutul de stațiune de interes local. Cel mai important potențial este cel natural, aceasta fiind una dintre cele două zone din țara noastră (alături de Soveja-Vrancea) cu cel mai pur aer. „În urma studiului de aer a rezultat că valoarea concentrației maxime de ozon măsurată în Colibița este de 90 micrograme/pe metru cub. Cote similare de puritate se regăsesc și în Alpi” - declară Emil Radu Moldovan, președintele Consiliului Județean Bistrița-Năsăud.
\r\nPotrivit legendei, în 1883, o fetiță din Bistrița, fiica unui sas înstărit, Hans Lewi, s-a vindecat de tuberculoză datorita aerului puternic în ozon. Și Erika Schuller, o arhitectă din Bistrița, a scăpat de teribila boală a vremii și a construit un sanatoriu cu 16 camere, unde erau tratați bolnavii de tuberculoză. Baza de tratament a funcționat până în 1944, cănd a fost distrus de un incendiu în timpul Războiului. Din 1923 până în 1975, Colibița a funcționat ca stațiune balneo-climaterică. În 1980 întreaga așezare, inclusiv stațiunea, au disparut, aici fiind amenajat un lac de acumulare.
\r\nPână în urmă cu 10 ani, la Colibița erau doar circa 50 de case ale localnicilor stramutati. Azi există 400 de case de vacanță, vile și pensiuni. Aici se pot face excursii, drumeții, ciclism montan, caiac, alpinism, pescuit, plimbări cu sania, dar și cu barca pe lac. Autoritățile județene au prevăzut pentru perioada 2014-2020 amenajarea unui domeniu schiabil ce va fi configurat din 13,8 kilometri de pârtii de schi, 7 instalații de transport pe cablu, 10 telegondole, 3 telescaune și 3 teleschiuri.
\r\nCARAIMAN - O altă soluție pentru Eroi
\r\nDupă ce s-au încercat diverse variante, de la accesări de fonduri europene până la granturi norvegiene, inclusiv o campanie de strîngere de resurse financiare ”Dați un ban pentru Caraiman”, care nu s-au bucurat de succes, Ministerul Apărării Naționale a luat decizia de a se ocupa de reabilitatea Monumentului Eroilor-Cruce de pe Masivul Caraiman. Practic el a fost trecut - conform unui comunicat de presă din domeniul public al Orașului Bușteni în domeniul public al statului, direct în administrarea Ministerului. Decizia a fost luată „În semn de omagiu adus sacrificiului suprem al celor căzuți în războiul de reîntregire a neamului, M.Ap.N. își propune finalizarea lucrărilor în anul celebrării centenarului Marii Uniri. Monumentul a fost construit între anii 1926 și 1928 pe Muntele Caraiman, la altitudinea de 2291 metri, pentru a cinsti memoria celor căzuți în Primul Război Mondial. La 14 septembrie 1928, a avut loc inaugurarea și sfințirea acestuia”. se precizează în comunicat.
\r\nLA VREMURI NOI TOT NOI
\r\nAlin Burcea, (Paralela 45), a fost ales în funcția de Președinte al Asociației Naționale a Agențiilor de Turism (ANAT), organizație pe care a mai condus-o mai mulți ani din pozițiile de Președinte sau prim-vicepreședinte. El este și fondatorul acestei organizații pe care a înființat-o în urmă cu 26 de ani, împreună cu alți cinci investitori din turism. Burcea a fost și secretar de stat în Ministerul Turismului (2001-2002). Programul său de management la conducerea ANAT, pentru următorii doi ani, vizează rezolvarea unor probleme stringente printre care: găsirea unei variante potrivită pentru piața românească de asigurare a agențiilor de turism în caz de insolvență și faliment, completarea Contractului cu turistul, respectiv punerea în aplicare a Legii voucherelor de vacanță, pentru care ANAT a luptat 11 ani. Din conducerea noului Consiliu Director fac parte personalități ale travel-ului românesc, precum Adrian Voican și Ciprian Popescu (prim-vicepreședinți), Antonio Niţu, George Sorin Nicolescu, Lucian Boronea, Mircea Vladu (vicepreședinți).\r\n\r\nSPRINGTIME SUSȚINE „CĂRȚILE COPILĂRIEI”
\r\nLanțul de restaurante s-a alăturat programului național de lectură “Cărțile copilăriei” dezvoltat de Asociația Curtea Veche. Prin acest parteneriat oferă clienților săi posibilitatea de a realiza donații în urnele amplasate la casele de marcat din restaurantele bucureștene situate în zonele Piața Victoriei, zona Universitate, Gara de Nord, Mall Vitan, Calea Floreasca și zona Izvor. ”Întreaga sumă colectată va fi utilizată pentru donații de carte către copiii din satele românești care nu au acces la biblioteci sau volume proprii. Parteneriatul între Springtime și Asociația Curtea Veche a început la cea de-a XXII-a ediții a Târgului Internaţional Gaudeamus” - a precizat Loredana Vătăvoiu, Brand Manager Springtime.\r\n\r\nDELTA VIE LA MUZEU \r\n\r\nAsociația “Ivan Patzaichin – Mila 23” și partenerii săi, Societatea Ornitologică Română și Muzeul Național al Satului “Dimitrie Gusti” au deschis Centrul de promovare și educație despre Delta Dunării și păsări amplasat chiar în incinta Muzeului. Prin realizarea unui set de activități educative, de informare și de agrement cu lotci din Deltă, acest Centru va deveni o vitrină a turismului lent din Delta Dunării. În cadrul evenimentului a fost lansat programul de agrement cu lotca și au avut loc exerciții de birdwatching. Pe lângă deja celebrele lotci marca Patzaikin, pe lacul Herăstrău (porțiunea de apă adiacentă Muzeului) au fost instalate și două insule plutitoare acoperite cu stuf pentru cuibărirea păsărilor din zonă.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nPESTE 100 DE PROIECTE TRANSFRONTALIERE
\r\nProgramul de cooperare transfrontalieră Interreg V-A România-Bulgaria, gestionat de Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale și Administrației Publice, din generaţia 2014-2020 deține un buget total de 258,4 milioane de euro, din care 215,7 milioane de euro din Fondul European de Dezvoltare Regională (FEDR).

\r\nINVESTIȚIE LA ȘUGAȘ BĂI
\r\nÎn ultimii 3 ani, au fost investiți peste 6,6 milioane lei în dezvoltarea și modernizarea stațiunii Șugaș Băi din județul Covasna, printr-un proiect cofinanțat prin POR. El a inclus construirea unor terenuri de mini golf, de tenis cu gazon sintetic, precum și unul pentru sporturi extreme, care include și un perete artificial de escaladă, de 12 metri înălțime și 9 metri lățime, o rampa de racing pentru cicliști, un parc de aventură amenajat în pădurea din stațiune etc. Conform viceprimarului Tischler Ferenc au fost reabilitate complet imobilele achiziționate în 2009 de Consiliul Local Sfântu Gheorghe de la SC Turism Oltul SA, respectiv baza de tratament, bazinul de apa minerală, mofeta și fostul restaurant. \r\n\r\n\r\n CE PERSPECTIVE ARE INDUSTRIA BALNEO\r\n\r\nDezvoltarea acestui segment depinde de modul în care actorii economici dintr-o regiune reușesc să coopereze pentru a crea și dezvolta o identitate competitivă a zonei.

Merita o carte-album care să o prezinte în plinătatea ei, o lucrare care să refacă, în imagini şi cuvinte bine alese, istoria scrisă dar şi vizuală a Perlei Carpaţilor. Astfel au apărut proiectul cultural şi cartea “Sinaia, Oraşul Elitelor” - semnată de arhitectul Dan Manea.\n\n\n\n“Cartea este o invitaţie de a străbate sălile acestui imens muzeu în aer liber care poartă numele Sinaia: Perla Carpaţilor, capitala turismului românesc, staţiunea cu două Gări Regale, în care opreşte Orient Express-ul, oraşul reşedinţă regală sau capitala de vară a României, aşa cum i s-a spus de-a lungul vremii. Nu poţi preţui, dacă nu cunoşti este motto-ul care m-a călăuzit în dorinţa de a dezvălui tuturor celor dornici să descopere dincolo de ceea ce se vede cu ochiul liber, ce înseamnă acest oraş şi modul unic în care el îmbogăţeşte patrimoniul universal.” - afirma Dan Manea.\n\n\n\nPână acuma “Sinaia, Oraşul Elitelor”, volum tipărit de către Princeps Publishing, a avut parte de două lansări şi prezentări elegante organizate de compania de evenimente Bluemaster. Prima a fost găzduită în martie de Cazinoul din Sinaia, proiectul bucurându-se nu numai de sprijinul a numeroşi sponsori privaţi dar şi de cel al Primăriei Sinaia. A doua lansare a avut loc la Muzeul de Istorie a Bucureştiului. Ambele evenimente s-au bucurat de prezenţa academicianului Constantin Bălăceanu-Stolnici şi a istoricului Adrian Majuru. Prin poveştile lor cu parfum de epocă, autentice şi spuse cu tâlc, ei au condus publicul în lumea elegantă, vibrantă şi în acelaşi timp atât de liniştită a Sinaiei anilor 1900: holul de la Palas plin de fum de ţigară şi rochii foşnitoare în care se întâlnea toată lumea bună, concursurile sportive, fanfara din parc, cafenelele...\n\n\n\nÎn “Sinaia, Oraşul Elitelor” Dan Manea trece cu multă dragoste şi atenţie prin istoria de 300 de ani a stațiunii. Scrie despre vilele oraşului şi arhitecţii lor, despre fântânile, băncile şi planurile de organizare ale Sinaiei. Câteva mii de documente şi fotografii inedite, vorbesc despre pasiunea pentru frumos a autorului. Nu lipseşte nimic: de la schiţele făcute pe pereţii chiliilor mânăstirii de către Regina Elisabeta, Stânca Sf. Ana, până la vizitele împăratului Franz Iosef.

Merita o carte-album care să o prezinte în plinătatea ei, o lucrare care să refacă, în imagini şi cuvinte bine alese, istoria scrisă dar şi vizuală a Perlei Carpaţilor. Astfel au apărut proiectul cultural şi cartea “Sinaia, Oraşul Elitelor” - semnată de arhitectul Dan Manea.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n“Cartea este o invitaţie de a străbate sălile acestui imens muzeu în aer liber care poartă numele Sinaia: Perla Carpaţilor, capitala turismului românesc, staţiunea cu două Gări Regale, în care opreşte Orient Express-ul, oraşul reşedinţă regală sau capitala de vară a României, aşa cum i s-a spus de-a lungul vremii. Nu poţi preţui, dacă nu cunoşti este motto-ul care m-a călăuzit în dorinţa de a dezvălui tuturor celor dornici să descopere dincolo de ceea ce se vede cu ochiul liber, ce înseamnă acest oraş şi modul unic în care el îmbogăţeşte patrimoniul universal.” - afirma Dan Manea.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nPână acuma “Sinaia, Oraşul Elitelor”, volum tipărit de către Princeps Publishing, a avut parte de două lansări şi prezentări elegante organizate de compania de evenimente Bluemaster. Prima a fost găzduită în martie de Cazinoul din Sinaia, proiectul bucurându-se nu numai de sprijinul a numeroşi sponsori privaţi dar şi de cel al Primăriei Sinaia. A doua lansare a avut loc la Muzeul de Istorie a Bucureştiului. Ambele evenimente s-au bucurat de prezenţa academicianului Constantin Bălăceanu-Stolnici şi a istoricului Adrian Majuru. Prin poveştile lor cu parfum de epocă, autentice şi spuse cu tâlc, ei au condus publicul în lumea elegantă, vibrantă şi în acelaşi timp atât de liniştită a Sinaiei anilor 1900: holul de la Palas plin de fum de ţigară şi rochii foşnitoare în care se întâlnea toată lumea bună, concursurile sportive, fanfara din parc, cafenelele...\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nÎn “Sinaia, Oraşul Elitelor” Dan Manea trece cu multă dragoste şi atenţie prin istoria de 300 de ani a stațiunii. Scrie despre vilele oraşului şi arhitecţii lor, despre fântânile, băncile şi planurile de organizare ale Sinaiei. Câteva mii de documente şi fotografii inedite, vorbesc despre pasiunea pentru frumos a autorului. Nu lipseşte nimic: de la schiţele făcute pe pereţii chiliilor mânăstirii de către Regina Elisabeta, Stânca Sf. Ana, până la vizitele împăratului Franz Iosef.

\nAsta nu înseamnă că oamenii cu spirit tânăr și cu inițiativă dorm în tranșee. În urmă cu cinci ani Asociația Pro Natura, susținută consistent de cel mai activ investitor din Băile Herculane - am numit aici grupul Bacolux din Craiova, a inițiat o campaniei civică pentru dezvoltarea stațiunii și redresarea imaginii sale. Pe parcursul celor cinci evenimente, au participat specialiști din turism, medicină, din mediul economic dar și autorități, cu scopul de a aduce în atenția publică potențialul stațiunii și a factorilor săi naturali. Conferința Națională „Băile Herculane, mai mult decât apă – Oportunități și provocări în cursa stațiunilor balneare” a abordat subiecte strâns legate de necesitatea investițiilor în stațiunile balneare, strategiile specifice dezvoltării economice, precum și necesitatea unei promovări corespunzătoare. \"Ministrul Economiei, Costin Borc, a prezentat, în urmă cu două luni, în ședința de guvern un program pentru relansarea turismului balnear din România. Acțiune pe care noi o așteptăm de ani buni. Se discută și se acționează în sprijinul stațiunilor balneare, ceea ce ne face să simțim că tot efortul nostru de a reînvia stațiunea Băile Herculane are un suport din partea Guvernului. Ne-am propus să venim în întâmpinarea proiectul pilot și să abordăm, împreună cu alți reprezentanți din diverse domenii conexe turismului balnear, subiecte în urma cărora să putem avea o imagine de ansamblu a tot ceea ce implică un astfel de proiect național.

\nUnde se strâng mulți oameni de calitate puterea crește. La asta s-au gândit, cu siguranță și cei doi directori-frați Marius și Florin Bazavan, care conduc hotelurile Afrodita și Diana din Băile Herculane, reprezentanții companiei Bacolux. Cu toate dificultățile pe care trebuie să le depășească în lupta cu administrația locală (chiar de ce trebuie să existe această ostilitate permanentă cînd aproape peste tot se vorbește sus și tare de parteneriatul public-privat ?), ei cred că modernizarea infrastructurii stațiunii se va încheia foarte curând. Cu condiția să nu fie arestați și viitorii primari.
\nBref. Organizatorii și-au propus, în urma acestui eveniment, să ordoneze un set de idei viabile menite să contribuie la revitalizarea turismului balnear. \"În aprilie 2014, o echipa destul de mică, formată din oameni care cred în valoarea și bogățiile stațiunii, pleca pe un drum care avea o singură destinație, aceea de a ajunge în punctul în care stațiunea Băile Herculane revine la strălucirea de altădată, iar resursele naturale devin atracția principală.

Strălucirea aristocrației europene s-a stins, an de an, însă au rămas superbele clădiri istorice, una dintre acestea fiind cazinoul din Băile Herculane.

BUCUREȘTI: pe locul 3
\r\nPotrivit companiei de cercetare de piață STR Global, Bucureștiul se află pe poziția a treia, dupa Praga și Budapesta, însă înainte de Varșovia și Sofia în ceea ce privește numărul hotelurilor de lux. Studiul nu se referă numai la hotelurile de 5 stele, ci la numărul proprietăților care îndeplinesc o serie de condiții valabile la nivel mondial pentru a fi considerate de lux. Conform specialiștilor STR Global Bucureștiul are 7 hoteluri de lux, de două ori mai puține decât Praga, cea mai cunoscută capitală din Europa Centrală și de Est din punct de vedere turistic. „Există un sistem la nivel internațional în funcție de care se clasifică hotelurile de lux, sistem stabilit de decenii“ - a declarat Sorin Ionescu, fondator și director al companiei de consultanță în domeniul hotelier Fivestar Hospitality. \r\nJW MARRIOTT: Investiție de 3 milioane\r\n\r\n
Cu un puternic potențial de exprimare comercială (402 camere, 12 săli de conferință, 6 restaurante, un centru de business, o galerie de lux pentru shopping, cazino, spa și fitness), JW Marriott Grand Hotel din București a anunțat finalizarea unei investiții de 3 milioane de euro în modernizarea a două etaje. În total au fost renovate 102 camere, 5 apartamente, 2 apartamente prezidențiale și executive lounge. Aceasta reprezintă prima etapă din planurile de renovare a etajelor cu spații de cazare. Pentru respectivele operațiuni JW Marriott București ( clasificat la 5 stele) a apelat la un arhitect portughez, specializat în design pentru brandul JW Marriott. Noul mobilier a fost furnizat de către producători italieni și spanioli.\r\n\r\n
MAMAIA: Primul hotel tematic
\r\nHotelul Bicaz din stațiunea Mamaia, este prima unitate de cazare tematică intrată în circuitul turistic în acest sezon estival. Atmosfera, costumele, decorurile amenajările exterioare sunt inspirate din peliculele ”Pirații din Caraibe”. Fiecare cameră a hotelului ce se numește „Pirates Resort Bicaz” deține un tablou mare inspirat din acțiunea filmului. Proprietarii, frații Dan și Cătălin Alexandrescu -, au spus că vechiul nume Bicaz, va dispărea treptat în viitorii ani. Tot ei au mai declarat că unitatea va funcționa în acest an în regim de demipensiune și pensiune completă, urmând ca din sezonul viitor să fie vândute și pachete all inculsive. Hotelul, reclasificat de la 2 la 3 stele, oferă 158 de camere și 8 apartamente, cu o capacitate totală de 300 de locuri. Investitorii, frații Alexandrescu, și-au vândut anul trecut afacerea de condimente și ingrediente pentru prăjituri Alex & Comp către Fuchs și Dr. Oetker, pentru suma de 8 milioane de euro. Ei au investit în turism 6 milioane, sumă ce acoperă contravaloarea tranzacției, renovarea, decorarea și restandardizarea hotelului Pirates Resort Bicaz. \r\nMANAGEMENT: Directori noi la Ana și Arsenal
\r\nAlexandra Copos de Prada a predat conducerea executivă a Ana Hotels noului director general Christine Schillings. Decizia luată este una personală dar Alexandra va continua să conducă grupul Ana Pan și să se dedice dezvoltării unor proiecte antreprenoriale personale. Christine Schillings are o experiență de 30 de ani în cadrul Hilton Worldwide, unde a coordonat un portofoliu de 46 de hoteluri din Estul Europei, Turcia, Rusia și Israel. Înființat în 2007 Grupul Ana Hotels deține 7 unități în București, Poiana Brașov și Eforie Nord, cu o capacitate totală de cazare de 975 camere și peste 700 de angajati.
\r\nȘi la complexul Arsenal Park de la Orăștie, deținut de frații Marius și Emil Cristescu, s-a produs schimbarea managementului. Gabriel Predescu este noul director general iar misiunea sa este de a crește calitatea serviciilor. Născut în 1981, Predescu și-a început cariera în Cluj, la hotelul Rimini, unde a avansat până la poziția de director general. Ulterior a condus hotelul de 4 stele Athos (tot din Cluj), a activat la București în domeniul F&B (hotel Caro). A plecat în SUA, unde a condus departamentul Food&Beverage al Island Country Club, apoi la Sheraton Club de Pins Alger, care deține cel mai mare complex de conferințe din Nordul Africii, respectiv la Lily Beach Resort din Maldive, unde a fost director Food&Beverages.\r\nALBA IULIA: Number 5
\r\nNumber 5 Boutique este numele hotelului ce va intra în circuitul turistic la Alba Iulia. Conform proiectului acesta va fi compus din subsol, parter și 3 etaje și va oferi 24 de camere, un restaurant, respectiv o sală de conferințe. Investitorul este Cosmin Matieș, managerul restaurantului Medieval Pub 13 din Alba Iulia. “Foarte mulți turiști, care luau masa în restaurant îmi cereau să le recomand un loc de cazare. Construcția unui hotel a venit ca urmare a creșterii acestor cereri”, a declarat Matieș. Suma alocată pentru acest boutique-hotel de 4 stele este estimată la circa 800.000 euro și provine din fonduri proprii. \r\nANGELA SIMION, ALEX BARBU & ION BADEA

\r\n\r\n\r\n“Cartea este o invitaţie de a străbate sălile acestui imens muzeu în aer liber care poartă numele Sinaia: Perla Carpaţilor, capitala turismului românesc, staţiunea cu două Gări Regale, în care opreşte Orient Express-ul, oraşul reşedinţă regală sau capitala de vară a României, aşa cum i s-a spus de-a lungul vremii. Nu poţi preţui, dacă nu cunoşti este motto-ul care m-a călăuzit în dorinţa de a dezvălui tuturor celor dornici să descopere dincolo de ceea ce se vede cu ochiul liber, ce înseamnă acest oraş şi modul unic în care el îmbogăţeşte patrimoniul universal.” - afirma Dan Manea.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nPână acuma “Sinaia, Oraşul Elitelor”, volum tipărit de către Princeps Publishing, a avut parte de două lansări şi prezentări elegante organizate de compania de evenimente Bluemaster. Prima a fost găzduită în martie de Cazinoul din Sinaia, proiectul bucurându-se nu numai de sprijinul a numeroşi sponsori privaţi dar şi de cel al Primăriei Sinaia. A doua lansare a avut loc la Muzeul de Istorie a Bucureştiului. Ambele evenimente s-au bucurat de prezenţa academicianului Constantin Bălăceanu-Stolnici şi a istoricului Adrian Majuru. Prin poveştile lor cu parfum de epocă, autentice şi spuse cu tâlc, ei au condus publicul în lumea elegantă, vibrantă şi în acelaşi timp atât de liniştită a Sinaiei anilor 1900: holul de la Palas plin de fum de ţigară şi rochii foşnitoare în care se întâlnea toată lumea bună, concursurile sportive, fanfara din parc, cafenelele...\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nÎn “Sinaia, Oraşul Elitelor” Dan Manea trece cu multă dragoste şi atenţie prin istoria de 300 de ani a stațiunii. Scrie despre vilele oraşului şi arhitecţii lor, despre fântânile, băncile şi planurile de organizare ale Sinaiei. Câteva mii de documente şi fotografii inedite, vorbesc despre pasiunea pentru frumos a autorului. Nu lipseşte nimic: de la schiţele făcute pe pereţii chiliilor mânăstirii de către Regina Elisabeta, Stânca Sf. Ana, până la vizitele împăratului Franz Iosef. Cartea-album este însoţită şi de o hartă pliantă în care autorul sugerează câteva trasee de parcurs în oraş.

\r\n16 orașe din România și tot atâtea din Bulgaria vor fi contectate cu ajutorul unui proiect transfrontalier finanțat din fonduri europene, prin programul interreg V-A Romania-Bulgaria 2014-2015, la proiectul E-bike Net. În cadrul acestuia în cele 32 de localități sunt disponibile 240 de biciclete electrice. Fiecare turist poate închiria un asemenea vehicul pentru 3 ore, la preț de 1 euro, timp în care poate să exploreze zone turistice de pe o parte și de alta a Dunării. Bicicletele electrice au setată viteza maximă de 25 km/h și permit parcurgerea unei distanțe între 50 și 70 de kilometri, cu efort minim. De asemenea vor exista 35 de puncte în ambele țări în care pot fi încărcați acumlatorii bicicletelor. Fiecare stație permite încărcarea a cinci biciclete simultan. Ele pot fi închiriate, în România, din: Giurgiu, Drobeta-Turnu Severin, Călărași, Constanța, Craiova, Alexandria, Medgidia, Mangalia, Caracal, Roșiorii de Vede, Turnu Măgurele, Cernavodă, Năvodari, Slatina, Oltenița și Calafat. Din Bulgaria bicicletele pot fi închiriate din: Dobrich, Varna, Veliko Tarnovo, Pleven, Vratsa, Gorna Oryahovitsa, Svishtov, Mezdra, Balchik, Lom, Montana, Cherven Bryag, Dulovo, Oryahovo, Silistra si Vidin.
\r\nProiectul este dezvoltat de ADRC, Centrul de Afaceri-Vidin, CCI Vidin,Asociația Română pentru Industria Electronică și Software Oltenia, respectiv Asociația Angajatorilor pentru întreprinderi mici și mijlocii Calafat. Bugetul proiectului este de 762.085 euro.

MUNȚII APUSENI: Primul muzeu viu\r\n![\"muzeul-viu\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Muzeul-viu.jpg\")
\r\n
Un proiect independent de antreprenoriat social al Asociației Groove ON, început în decembrie 2015 va fi lansat în această vară în Munții Apuseni. Mai precis în satul Tecșești (județul Alba), ce mai are doar 14 locuitori, va fi deschis integral primul muzeu viu din România. Muzeul Viu este unic prin faptul că oferă publicului posibilitatea de a trăi într-un spațiu care reconstituie istoria acestor ținuturi de mocani, de aici și denumirea de muzeu viu. Locuitorii muzeului vor proveni preponderent din mijlocul comunității pasionate de originile poporului român, de legendele dacice, etnografie, antropologie și folclor, comunitate care și finanțează această inițiativă inedită.
\r\nProiectul ”La Origini – Muzeul Viu” a fost și este susținut prin platforma de crowdfunding Indiegogo, cu sume care variază între 15 și 1000 de euro. Muzeul este organizat pe mai multe sectoare care acoperă diferite perioade istorice dar și meșteșugurile ori tradițiile aferente acestora. Printre atracții se numără: locuințe refăcute din pământ și piatră, cu acoperișuri de paie; școala restaurată într-o casă veche de 200 de ani; ateliere de ceramică, cuptoare pentru arderea lutului dar și a pâinii; grădini de legume, de plante aromatice, pomi fructiferi etc.
\r\nPotențial excepțional: Piatra Craiului-Păpușa
\r\nRomânia ar putea avea cel mai mare parc național din Europa, în zona munților Piatra Craiului, Făgăraș, Leaota și Iezer-Păpusa, ceea ce ar reprezenta un potențial turistic imens apreciază reprezentanții ministerului Mediului, Apelor și Pădurilor. Ei au efectuat împreună cu experți naționali dar și internaționali de la Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA) o vizită de evaluare a acestui areal. Conform specialiștilor zona, cu o suprafață combinată de peste 200.000 hectare, ar putea deveni o arie naturală protejată sălbatică, emblematică pentru Europa, precum este Yellowstone pentru SUA sau Parcul Național Serengeti pentru Africa.
\r\nRomânia adăpostește cele mai valoroase ecosisteme din Europa pe circa 1,6 milioane de hectare (rezervații știintifice, naturale, parcuri naționale și naturale, monumente ale naturii), la care se adaugă Rezervația Biosferei Delta Dunării, cu cele 580.000 hectare. Ariile naturale protejate înființate în țara noastră, inclusiv siturile Natura 2000 - Arii naturale protejate de interes European - reprezintă 23% din suprafața țării, iar din acest areal pădurile reprezinta 45% din fondul forestier național. Parcurile naționale și naturale (fără Delta Dunării) reprezintă doar 5% din suprafața României.
\r\nCAMPANIE CE - ”Există minuni pretutindeni!”\r\n![\"ev-europa-campanie-1\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Ev-Europa-campanie-1.jpg\")
\r\n
Comisia Europeană a lansat în această lună o campanie de comunicare în domeniul turismului denumită „Europa. Există minuni pretutindeni.” Aceasta are drept obiectiv atragerea europenilor către descoperirea atracțiilor ascunse ale Europei și îi provoacă să preia inițiativa: să povestească despre destinațiile preferate, sensibilizându-i astfel și pe ceilalți și motivându-i să opteze pentru destinații turistice europene diverse, durabile și de calitate superioară.
\r\nContribuția turismului la economiile europene este semnificativă, ridicându-se în anul 2014 la peste 1,6 trilioane de euro, ceea ce reprezintă aproximativ 10 % din PIB-ul total al UE. Conform WTTC prin impactul său direct, indirect și implicit, acest sector a susținut 25 de milioane de locuri de muncă la nivelul UE. Totuși, continua expansiune și diversificare a pieței turismului este vizibilă, iar în ultimele decenii au apărut multe destinații noi și în afara Europei. Statisticile arată că, până în anul 2025, doar o treime (33 %) din sosirile internaționale vor fi pe teritoriul UE, în scădere de la 40 % în anul 2010 și, respectiv, 56 % în 1980. ”Prin urmare, obiectivul Comisiei Europene este acela de a menține poziția Europei ca principală destinație turistică, maximizând totodată contribuția sectorului turismului la creșterea economică și ocuparea forței de muncă” - se arată într-un comunicat de presă remis redacției noastre.

\r\nDacă nu știați aflați acum! De trei ani, în ultima decadă a lunii mai se organizează, la Constanța, Festivalul Scoicilor. Acum a căzut în perioada 21-23 mai. Evenimentul și-a etalat chefii și delicatesele lor chiar în jurul statuii emblematice a lui Ovidiu din piața cu același nume. Au fost interesate vreo 25 de restaurante din Constanța, Mamaia, Mangalia, Eforii dar și din București. De la localurile Nikos Greek Taverna, Le Premier, (cu Cesar Alonso Velasquez Baez şi cel mai mare ceaun din Piaţa Ovidiu) Cocoşu Roşu (cu Gabriel Toader şi Alexandru Rosz) și Piccolo Mondo din București, Restaurantul Steaua de Mare din Eforie Nord (cu Alex Negoiţă), Restaurant Beluga din Mamaia, (cu Filip Alexandru) Restaurantul Aqua by the sea, până la Restaurant Lino (cu Mayla Annalisa). Ei au gătit sub ochii exigenți ai Chef Cătălin Scărlătescu, preparate după rețete proprii: tocănițe de midii, midii sotate cu vin alb sau roşu cu patrunjel şi usturoi, supe, scoici pane, marinate sau tempura, paste, salate diferite cu rapane şi sosuri asiatice etc. \r\nA treia ediție a “Festivalului Scoicilor” a avut în juriu, premieră și pe Anca Nedea, președintele ANT. Marele Trofeu, într-adevăr mare și greu - o scoică din bronz, cu o greutate de... 12 kilograme - a fost ridicat de Alex Negoiţă și echipa de la Complexul Steaua de Mare din Eforie Nord. Organizatorii spun că de Festival ar fi fost atrași circa 80.000 de amatori de scoici.

\r\nE-BIKE NET pune biciclete pe frontiere
\r\n16 orașe din România și tot atâtea din Bulgaria vor fi contectate cu ajutorul unui proiect transfrontalier finanțat din fonduri europene, prin programul interreg V-A Romania-Bulgaria 2014-2015, la proiectul E-bike Net. În cadrul acestuia în cele 32 de localități sunt disponibile 240 de biciclete electrice. Fiecare turist poate închiria un asemenea vehicul pentru 3 ore, la preț de 1 euro, timp în care poate să exploreze zone turistice de pe o parte și de alta a Dunării. Bicicletele electrice au setată viteza maximă de 25 km/h și permit parcurgerea unei distanțe între 50 și 70 de kilometri, cu efort minim. De asemenea vor exista 35 de puncte în ambele țări în care pot fi încărcați acumlatorii bicicletelor. Fiecare stație permite încărcarea a cinci biciclete simultan. Ele pot fi închiriate, în România, din: Giurgiu, Drobeta-Turnu Severin, Călărași, Constanța, Craiova, Alexandria, Medgidia, Mangalia, Caracal, Roșiorii de Vede, Turnu Măgurele, Cernavodă, Năvodari, Slatina, Oltenița și Calafat. Din Bulgaria bicicletele pot fi închiriate din: Dobrich, Varna, Veliko Tarnovo, Pleven, Vratsa, Gorna Oryahovitsa, Svishtov, Mezdra, Balchik, Lom, Montana, Cherven Bryag, Dulovo, Oryahovo, Silistra si Vidin.
\r\nProiectul este dezvoltat de ADRC, Centrul de Afaceri-Vidin, CCI Vidin,Asociația Română pentru Industria Electronică și Software Oltenia, respectiv Asociația Angajatorilor pentru întreprinderi mici și mijlocii Calafat. Bugetul proiectului este de 762.085 euro.
\r\nDUBROVNIK: \"Think Travel with Google\"
\r\nConferința internațională ”Think Travel with Google”, ce s-a desfășurat la Dubrovnik (Croația), a fost dedicată autorităților naționale pentru turism din întreaga lume și experților care au ca obiectiv cunoașterea, respectiv crearea brandului de destinație pentru țara lor. Manifestarea a reunit experți internaționali și lideri în branding de țară ce au discutat despre perspectivele industriei turistice. \"Think Travel with Google\" și-a propus să găsească răspunsuri la nevoia destinațiilor de a se remarca în ochii călătorului, de a se poziționa în lumea digitală etc. Din partea țării noastre au fost prezenți doi dintre liderii Autorității Naționale pentru Turism (ANT). Președintele Anca Pavel-Nedea a semnat un Protocolul de colaborare între ANT și Google România, document ce prevede dezvoltarea imaginii României ca destinație de notorietate, prin promovarea brandului turistic național. Google România va oferi o serie de sesiuni de training, instrumente de cercetare a pieței (Google Trends, Google Consumer Barometer etc), modalități de promovarea online prin intermediul Google AdWords menite să diversifice percepția consumatorilor asupra destinațiilor țării noastre etc. \r\nMUNȚII APUSENI: Primul muzeu viu
\r\nUn proiect independent de antreprenoriat social al Asociației Groove ON, început în decembrie 2015 va fi lansat în această vară în Munții Apuseni. Mai precis în satul Tecșești (județul Alba), ce mai are doar 14 locuitori, va fi deschis integral primul muzeu viu din România. Muzeul Viu este unic prin faptul că oferă publicului posibilitatea de a trăi într-un spațiu care reconstituie istoria acestor ținuturi de mocani, de aici și denumirea de muzeu viu. Locuitorii muzeului vor proveni preponderent din mijlocul comunității pasionate de originile poporului român, de legendele dacice, etnografie, antropologie și folclor, comunitate care și finanțează această inițiativă inedită.
\r\nProiectul ”La Origini – Muzeul Viu” a fost și este susținut prin platforma de crowdfunding Indiegogo, cu sume care variază între 15 și 1000 de euro. Muzeul este organizat pe mai multe sectoare care acoperă diferite perioade istorice dar și meșteșugurile ori tradițiile aferente acestora. Printre atracții se numără: locuințe refăcute din pământ și piatră, cu acoperișuri de paie; școala restaurată într-o casă veche de 200 de ani; ateliere de ceramică, cuptoare pentru arderea lutului dar și a pâinii; grădini de legume, de plante aromatice, pomi fructiferi etc.
\r\nPotențial excepțional: Piatra Craiului-Păpușa
\r\nRomânia ar putea avea cel mai mare parc național din Europa, în zona munților Piatra Craiului, Făgăraș, Leaota și Iezer-Păpusa, ceea ce ar reprezenta un potențial turistic imens apreciază reprezentanții ministerului Mediului, Apelor și Pădurilor. Ei au efectuat împreună cu experți naționali dar și internaționali de la Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA) o vizită de evaluare a acestui areal. Conform specialiștilor zona, cu o suprafață combinată de peste 200.000 hectare, ar putea deveni o arie naturală protejată sălbatică, emblematică pentru Europa, precum este Yellowstone pentru SUA sau Parcul Național Serengeti pentru Africa.
\r\nRomânia adăpostește cele mai valoroase ecosisteme din Europa pe circa 1,6 milioane de hectare (rezervații știintifice, naturale, parcuri naționale și naturale, monumente ale naturii), la care se adaugă Rezervația Biosferei Delta Dunării, cu cele 580.000 hectare. Ariile naturale protejate înființate în țara noastră, inclusiv siturile Natura 2000 - Arii naturale protejate de interes European - reprezintă 23% din suprafața țării, iar din acest areal pădurile reprezinta 45% din fondul forestier național. Parcurile naționale și naturale (fără Delta Dunării) reprezintă doar 5% din suprafața României.
\r\nCAMPANIE CE - ”Există minuni pretutindeni!”
\r\nComisia Europeană a lansat în această lună o campanie de comunicare în domeniul turismului denumită „Europa. Există minuni pretutindeni.” Aceasta are drept obiectiv atragerea europenilor către descoperirea atracțiilor ascunse ale Europei și îi provoacă să preia inițiativa: să povestească despre destinațiile preferate, sensibilizându-i astfel și pe ceilalți și motivându-i să opteze pentru destinații turistice europene diverse, durabile și de calitate superioară.
\r\nContribuția turismului la economiile europene este semnificativă, ridicându-se în anul 2014 la peste 1,6 trilioane de euro, ceea ce reprezintă aproximativ 10 % din PIB-ul total al UE. Conform WTTC prin impactul său direct, indirect și implicit, acest sector a susținut 25 de milioane de locuri de muncă la nivelul UE. Totuși, continua expansiune și diversificare a pieței turismului este vizibilă, iar în ultimele decenii au apărut multe destinații noi și în afara Europei. Statisticile arată că, până în anul 2025, doar o treime (33 %) din sosirile internaționale vor fi pe teritoriul UE, în scădere de la 40 % în anul 2010 și, respectiv, 56 % în 1980. ”Prin urmare, obiectivul Comisiei Europene este acela de a menține poziția Europei ca principală destinație turistică, maximizând totodată contribuția sectorului turismului la creșterea economică și ocuparea forței de muncă” - se arată într-un comunicat de presă remis redacției noastre.

Ce spun UNWTO și WTTC ?
\r\nOptimismul Organizației Mondiale a Turismului (UNWTO) este împărtășit și de secretarul general al UNWTO, Taleb Rifai, care declara că ”2015 este al 6-lea an consecutiv în care turismul internațional continuă să crească peste trendul pe termen lung prognozat de UNWTO în perioada 2010-2020, de 3,8%. Pentru 2016, organizația noastră estimează o nouă dinamică de 4% a circulației mondiale”.\r\n![\"statistica-2\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Statistica-2.jpg\")
\r\n
La rândul său Consiliul Mondial al Turismului și Călătoriilor (WTTC), apreciază că sectorul turismului a creat anul trecut 7,2 milioane locuri de muncă și a contribuit cu 7.200 miliarde de dolari la economia mondială. Președintele forului David Scowsill, sublinia că ”Pentru acest an ne așteptăm la o contribuție totală a sectorului turismului la PIB ce ar urma să crească cu 3,5%. WTTC estimează că în viitorul deceniu ”industria fără fum” va înregistra performanțe superioare economiei mondiale. În pofida incertitudinilor cu privire la economia globală și a provocărilor specifice cu care s-a confruntat anul trecut, sectorul turismului a crescut cu 3,7%, contribuind în ansamblu cu 9,8% la PIB-ul mondial. Ca o idee numărul celor care au vizitat Europa, Asia-Pacific și continentul american a crescut cu 5% în toate cele trei cazuri, în schimb a scăzut cu 8% în Africa de Nord, unde țări precum Tunisia au fost afectate de atentate. Anul trecut, o serie de acte teroriste au afectat câteva importante destinații turistice mondiale precum Tunisia, Egiptul și Turcia. Potrivit studiului anual de impact economic elaborat de WTTC, contribuția directă a turismului la creșterea PIB-ului a depășit în 2015 ritmul general de creșterea a PIB-ului în 127 din cele 184 de țări incluse în acest raport. Printre statele unde turismul a înregistrat performanțe superioare economiei în 2015 se numără Islanda, Japonia, Mexic, Noua Zeelandă, Qatarul, Arabia Saudită, Thailanda și Uganda.\r\n![\"statistica-3\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Statistica-3.jpg\")

EUROSTAT - România joacă încă în liga secundă
\r\nPotrivit datelor prezentate de Eurostat, străinii care au vizitat România anul trecut, au petrecut 4,5 milioane de nopți, în creștere cu 18,3%, de la 3,8 milioane de nopți în 2014. Numărul total al înnoptărilor (români și străini) în structurile de primire turistică a crescut, în aceeași perioadă, cu aproape 16%, ajungând la 23,4 milioane, cel mai mare avans la nivelul Uniunii Europene.\r\n![\"statistica-4\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Statistica-4.jpg\")
\r\n
Înnoptările la nivelul UE au crescut cu 3,2%, la peste 2,76 miliarde, din care 1,26 miliarde reprezintă nopțile petrecute de non-rezidenți. Țara noastră rămâne însă printre destinațiile mai puțin căutate de străini. La același pol mai figurează Slovacia - 4,3 milioane de nopți petrecute de turiștii străini, Estonia - 3,8 milioane de nopți, Lituania și Letonia - câte 2,9 milioane de nopți. Aceste destinații au suprafețe și populații cu mult mai mici decât România. Conform Eurostat cea mai căutată destinație a fost Spania, cu 268 milioane de nopți, respectiv 21% din totalul nopților petrecute de non-rezidenți în structurile de cazare din UE, urmată de Italia cu 191 de milioane, sau 15% din total, respectiv Franța cu 134 milioane de nopți (11%).
\r\nINS - Ponderea aparține business-turismului
\r\nÎn 2015 numărul turiștilor nerezidenți cazați în structurile de primire colective a fost de 2.231.000, iar cheltuielile acestora s-au ridicat în total la 5.634,5 milioane de lei. Conform Institutului Național de Statistică (INS), anul trecut structura circulației turistice nu și-a modificat foarte mult configurația. Principalul motiv al sejurului petrecut de turiștii nerezidenți în România l-a reprezentat afacerile, participarea la congrese, conferințe, cursuri, târguri și expoziții - 55,9% din numărul total al nerezidenților, cheltuielile acestora reprezentând 59,5% din total. Cel de al doilea motiv l‐a constituit călătoriile particulare - 44,1%, dintre acestea evidențiindu‐se cele pentru vacanțe - 62%.
\r\nDin totalul cheltuielilor pentru afaceri, ponderea cea mai mare o reprezintă cele pentru cazare - 53,3%, fiind preferată cazarea cu mic dejun inclus - 90,2%. Cheltuielile turiștilor nerezidenți în restaurante și baruri au fost de 16,4%, iar cele pentru cumpărături au reprezentat 12,7%.
\r\nCheltuielile pentru închirierea de autoturisme au avut o pondere de 61% din totalul cheltuielilor pentru transport. Din totalul nerezidenților sosiți în România, 49% și‐au organizat sejurul prin agenții de turism, iar 28,7%, atenție, tendință în creștere -, și‐au organizat singuri sejurul.
\r\nPrincipalul mijloc de transport utilizat de turiștii nerezidenți pentru a sosi în România a fost avionul - 77,8% din numărul total de călători. Autoturismele proprii au reprezentat 12,5%, urmate de autocare și autobuze cu 8,7%, alte mijloace - 1%.
\r\nCum stăm cu capacitatea de cazare !
\r\nSe pare că din ce în ce mai bine, în urma investițiilor succesive făcute în modernizarea vechilor structuri cu capacități mari, dar și în construcția unora noi, în majoritate hoteluri medii și mici, respectiv pensiuni agroturistice, urbane și rurale. Tot conform INS la 31 iulie 2015 funcționau în Romania 1.545 de hoteluri. Majoritatea unităților, respectiv 51,1% erau încadrate la categoria 3 stele și 23,7% au fost la 2 stele. Hotelurile cu 5 stele au fost 34, cu 3 mai mult ca la 31 iulie 2014, iar cele cu standarde de 4 stele au fost 294, cu 27 mai multe decat în perioada amintită.

Pe plan mondial s-au înregistrat 1,184 miliarde de turiști internaționali, ceea ce consemnează o creștere cu 4,4%. Adică cu aproximativ 50 de milioane de persoane mai mult, comparativ cu recordul înregistrat în 2014.
\r\nCe spun UNWTO și WTTC ?
\r\nOptimismul Organizației Mondiale a Turismului (UNWTO) este împărtășit și de secretarul general al UNWTO, Taleb Rifai, care declara că ”2015 este al 6-lea an consecutiv în care turismul internațional continuă să crească peste trendul pe termen lung prognozat de UNWTO în perioada 2010-2020, de 3,8%. Pentru 2016, organizația noastră estimează o nouă dinamică de 4% a circulației mondiale”.
\r\nLa rândul său Consiliul Mondial al Turismului și Călătoriilor (WTTC), apreciază că sectorul turismului a creat anul trecut 7,2 milioane locuri de muncă și a contribuit cu 7.200 miliarde de dolari la economia mondială. Președintele forului David Scowsill, sublinia că ”Pentru acest an ne așteptăm la o contribuție totală a sectorului turismului la PIB ce ar urma să crească cu 3,5%. WTTC estimează că în viitorul deceniu ”industria fără fum” va înregistra performanțe superioare economiei mondiale. În pofida incertitudinilor cu privire la economia globală și a provocărilor specifice cu care s-a confruntat anul trecut, sectorul turismului a crescut cu 3,7%, contribuind în ansamblu cu 9,8% la PIB-ul mondial. Ca o idee numărul celor care au vizitat Europa, Asia-Pacific și continentul american a crescut cu 5% în toate cele trei cazuri, în schimb a scăzut cu 8% în Africa de Nord, unde țări precum Tunisia au fost afectate de atentate. Anul trecut, o serie de acte teroriste au afectat câteva importante destinații turistice mondiale precum Tunisia, Egiptul și Turcia. Potrivit studiului anual de impact economic elaborat de WTTC, contribuția directă a turismului la creșterea PIB-ului a depășit în 2015 ritmul general de creșterea a PIB-ului în 127 din cele 184 de țări incluse în acest raport. Printre statele unde turismul a înregistrat performanțe superioare economiei în 2015 se numără Islanda, Japonia, Mexic, Noua Zeelandă, Qatarul, Arabia Saudită, Thailanda și Uganda.
\r\nEUROSTAT - România joacă încă în liga secundă
\r\nPotrivit datelor prezentate de Eurostat, străinii care au vizitat România anul trecut, au petrecut 4,5 milioane de nopți, în creștere cu 18,3%, de la 3,8 milioane de nopți în 2014. Numărul total al înnoptărilor (români și străini) în structurile de primire turistică a crescut, în aceeași perioadă, cu aproape 16%, ajungând la 23,4 milioane, cel mai mare avans la nivelul Uniunii Europene.
\r\nÎnnoptările la nivelul UE au crescut cu 3,2%, la peste 2,76 miliarde, din care 1,26 miliarde reprezintă nopțile petrecute de non-rezidenți. Țara noastră rămâne însă printre destinațiile mai puțin căutate de străini. La același pol mai figurează Slovacia - 4,3 milioane de nopți petrecute de turiștii străini, Estonia - 3,8 milioane de nopți, Lituania și Letonia - câte 2,9 milioane de nopți. Aceste destinații au suprafețe și populații cu mult mai mici decât România. Conform Eurostat cea mai căutată destinație a fost Spania, cu 268 milioane de nopți, respectiv 21% din totalul nopților petrecute de non-rezidenți în structurile de cazare din UE, urmată de Italia cu 191 de milioane, sau 15% din total, respectiv Franța cu 134 milioane de nopți (11%).
\r\nINS - Ponderea aparține business-turismului
\r\nÎn 2015 numărul turiștilor nerezidenți cazați în structurile de primire colective a fost de 2.231.000, iar cheltuielile acestora s-au ridicat în total la 5.634,5 milioane de lei. Conform Institutului Național de Statistică (INS), anul trecut structura circulației turistice nu și-a modificat foarte mult configurația. Principalul motiv al sejurului petrecut de turiștii nerezidenți în România l-a reprezentat afacerile, participarea la congrese, conferințe, cursuri, târguri și expoziții - 55,9% din numărul total al nerezidenților, cheltuielile acestora reprezentând 59,5% din total. Cel de al doilea motiv l‐a constituit călătoriile particulare - 44,1%, dintre acestea evidențiindu‐se cele pentru vacanțe - 62%.
\r\nDin totalul cheltuielilor pentru afaceri, ponderea cea mai mare o reprezintă cele pentru cazare - 53,3%, fiind preferată cazarea cu mic dejun inclus - 90,2%. Cheltuielile turiștilor nerezidenți în restaurante și baruri au fost de 16,4%, iar cele pentru cumpărături au reprezentat 12,7%.
\r\nCheltuielile pentru închirierea de autoturisme au avut o pondere de 61% din totalul cheltuielilor pentru transport. Din totalul nerezidenților sosiți în România, 49% și‐au organizat sejurul prin agenții de turism, iar 28,7%, atenție, tendință în creștere -, și‐au organizat singuri sejurul.
\r\nPrincipalul mijloc de transport utilizat de turiștii nerezidenți pentru a sosi în România a fost avionul - 77,8% din numărul total de călători. Autoturismele proprii au reprezentat 12,5%, urmate de autocare și autobuze cu 8,7%, alte mijloace - 1%.
\r\nCum stăm cu capacitatea de cazare !
\r\nSe pare că din ce în ce mai bine, în urma investițiilor succesive făcute în modernizarea vechilor structuri cu capacități mari, dar și în construcția unora noi, în majoritate hoteluri medii și mici, respectiv pensiuni agroturistice, urbane și rurale. Tot conform INS la 31 iulie 2015 funcționau în Romania 1.545 de hoteluri. Majoritatea unităților, respectiv 51,1% erau încadrate la categoria 3 stele și 23,7% au fost la 2 stele. Hotelurile cu 5 stele au fost 34, cu 3 mai mult ca la 31 iulie 2014, iar cele cu standarde de 4 stele au fost 294, cu 27 mai multe decat în perioada amintită. Primele cinci județe, ierarhizate după numărul total de structuri turistice existente au fost: Brașov - 886 structuri de cazare, Constanța - 755, Harghita - 357, Sibiu - 315 și Prahova - 314.

\r\nMAMAIA: Primul hotel tematic
\r\nHotelul Bicaz din stațiunea Mamaia, este prima unitate de cazare tematică intrată în circuitul turistic în acest sezon estival. Atmosfera, costumele, decorurile amenajările exterioare sunt inspirate din peliculele ”Pirații din Caraibe”. Fiecare cameră a hotelului ce se numește „Pirates Resort Bicaz” deține un tablou mare inspirat din acțiunea filmului. Atmosfera creată de arhitecți și designeri degajă trei elemente distincte - aventură, distracție, relaxare. Ideal pentru familii cu copii el se adresează și amatorilor de mister și noutate. La diversificarea ofertei de vacanță contribuie programele interactive de entertainment, decoruri de poveste și locații tematice precum miniclubul și locul de joacă pentru copii Parrot’s Land, Jack’s Bar și, desigur, Pirates Island, un restaurant cu terasă amplasat pe malul mării.\r\n\r\n Proprietarii, frații Dan și Cătălin Alexandrescu -, au spus că vechiul nume Bicaz, va dispărea treptat în viitorii ani.

S-ar putea să credeți - după ce ați văzut toate minunile arhitectonice, că Dubai-ul nu mai are secrete turistice. Dar nu este așa. Mai există miracole construite. Pentru a ajunge la unul dintre cele mai noi mergeți pe linia Orange a City Sightseeing Tours până la capăt. Stația: Miracle Garden! Aici vă veți întâlni cu un adevărat un tărâm de basm parcă desprins din basmele din 1001 de nopți, metamorfonzat în realitate, pentru noi turiștii - muritori de rând -, de către Abdel Nasser Rahhal, un inginer visător dar și un mare magician. Visul lui, susținut de proiecte de anvergură s-a concretizat în următoarele cifre: o investiție de 11 milioane de dolari, ce se întinde pe 72.000 de metri pătrați de deșert, peste 150 de milioane de fire de flori din 45 de specii, ”hrănite” zilnic prin picurarea a circa 800 de mii de litri de apă (provenită din apă menajeră reciclată), o casă a fluturilor cu 15.000 de locatari înaripați, ce reprezintă 26 de specii ce zboară meridianele mapamondului.\r\n
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5056,5057,5058,5059,5060,5061,5062,5063\"]\r\nUn milion de vizitatori pe an
\r\nProgramul de funcționare este din Octombrie până în Aprilie. În intervalul Iunie-Septembrie Miracle Garden se odihnește fiind ferită de privirile vizitatorilor, dar mai ales de temperaturile de peste 45 de grade ostile oricărui tip de vegetație. Dar să nu credeți că vorbim despre o grădină botanică tradițională sau numai despre o expoziție floristică fabuloasă. Turiștii revin aici în fiecare an, deoarece tematica aranjamentelor se schimbă de la un sezon la altul. Exclus să te plictisește când vei reveni. Încă de la deschiderea parțială din februarie 2013 această grădină a miracolelor a atras un public numeros, în prezent înregistrându-se peste 30.000 de vizitatori... săptămânal (și cam un milion anual). De altfel Miracle Garden este considerată cea mai mare grădină a deșertului și a stârnit admirația tuturor de la turiști la specialiști, artiști sau jurnaliști de travel. Experții de la Garden Tourism Award i-au acordat premiul Moselle Award în 2015, celebrele studiouri de film de la Bollywood își plasează o mulțime de scene în cadrul romantic al grădinii, iar turiștii indieni prevăd în agenda lor de călătorie un popas obligatoriu pentru o ședință foto-amintire. Cu câteva familii ne-am întâlnit în timpul vizitei noastre. Ne-a făcut plăcere să-i servim cu câteva instantanee fotogenice. Turiștii în general, vin aici în valuri, care corespund cu sosirea autocarului turistic, și rămân ore întregi fermecați de explozia floristică și originalitatea aranjamentelor.
\r\nMiniaturi de... 21 de metri
\r\nÎncă de la intrare pătrunzi în spațiul unui basm căci accesul se face prin miezul unei uriașe orhidee-poartă. Și de aici te scurgi, la propriu și la figurat, pe aleile poveștilor. Zâna cea bună te întâmpina cu apă răcoroasă curgându-i printre degete, inimi din arcade florale îți oferă umbra necesară, băcuțe cu forme delicate (păuni, lebede, flori) îți oferă loc de repaos. Aleile sunt flancate de valuri de flori ce ai senzația că se scurg pe lângă tine. O arhitectură vegetală te înconjoară în fiecare sector. În centrul grădinii domină, cum altfel, silueta celebrului Burj Al Khalifa, o ”miniatură” de numai... 21 de metri. Alături se distinge ușor Turnul Eiffel, încadrat de numeroase mori de vânt care par că sunt gata să se învârtă. Nu lipsesc castele englezești, scoțiene, galeze, pagodele nipone, palate, peisaje cu vile montane desprinse parcă din mici stațiuni din Alpii francezi ori elvețieni. Atmosfera medievală este întărită de uși străjuite de... ghivece pline de flori. Iar dacă nu ști cât este ora florile unui ceas imens îți indică timpul rămas până la închidere. Cascade de ape florale îți desfată mirosul iar dacă ești prea stors de soare te poți răsfăța cu o plimbare prin tunelul construit din umbrele multicolore. Puțin mai departe te poți opri la o cafea sau o răcoritoare, la cofertăria Miracle Garden, al cărui acoperiș protector este alcătuit dintr-o pepinieră de flori și ghivece. Aici sunt rezervele florale ce înlocuiesc permanent aranjamentele uscate de furtunile de nisip ori vântul deșertului. Pe terasă poți savura și o salată de fructe pe care ți-o poți face singur, din ceea ce ai la îndemână, căci aici există un spațiu special unde poți învăța și interacționa cu plantele !
\r\nCoboară în stația Fraților Grimm
\r\nDupă ce ți-ai tras sufletul merită să frecventezi zona... mijloacelor de transport. Senzația florară cea mai puternică este oferită de un tren ale cărui vagoane sunt umplute și decorate cu ghirlande de flori. Parcă ai fugit pe poarta basmelor Fraților Grimm. Dar stați, că nu e totul! După ce cobori într-o gară imaginară dai cu privirile într-o fantezie auto-florală care te fixează locului. N-ai cum să ocolești așa ceva. Câteva ”broscuțe” ce amintesc de personaje din benzile desenate găzduiesc aranjamente cu flori cățărătoare, iar alte zeci de autoturisme înfipte simetric cu botul în pământ, alcătuiesc parcă burduful unui acordeon imens. Din el în loc de sunete țînșesc flori luxuriante. Ei bine, era să uit, pentru cei care încă beau apă de la robinet le recomandăm să nu rateze vizitarea lacului în centrul căruia se află un robinet uriaș fermecat. El țânește de jos în sus, iar iluzia optică este foarte reușită. Magia grădinii nu se încheie aici. Te-ai hotărât să mergi spre ieșire? Nu ai cum să ocolești un aranjament artistic, o sculptură decorativă de mari dimensiuni cu flori-clopoței. E un alt semn că trebuie să revii în Dubai, chiar și numai pentru această bijuterie naturală smulsă deșertului.

Visul lui, susținut de proiecte de anvergură s-a concretizat în următoarele cifre: o investiție de 11 milioane de dolari, ce se întinde pe 72.000 de metri pătrați de deșert, peste 150 de milioane de fire de flori din 45 de specii, ”hrănite” zilnic prin picurarea a circa 800 de mii de litri de apă (provenită din apă menajeră reciclată), o casă a fluturilor cu 15.000 de locatari înaripați, ce reprezintă 26 de specii ce zboară meridianele mapamondului.
\r\nUn milion de vizitatori pe an
\r\nProgramul de funcționare este din Octombrie până în Aprilie. În intervalul Iunie-Septembrie Miracle Garden se odihnește fiind ferită de privirile vizitatorilor, dar mai ales de temperaturile de peste 45 de grade ostile oricărui tip de vegetație. Dar să nu credeți că vorbim despre o grădină botanică tradițională sau numai despre o expoziție floristică fabuloasă. Turiștii revin aici în fiecare an, deoarece tematica aranjamentelor se schimbă de la un sezon la altul. Exclus să te plictisește când vei reveni. Încă de la deschiderea parțială din februarie 2013 această grădină a miracolelor a atras un public numeros, în prezent înregistrându-se peste 30.000 de vizitatori... săptămânal (și cam un milion anual). De altfel Miracle Garden este considerată cea mai mare grădină a deșertului și a stârnit admirația tuturor de la turiști la specialiști, artiști sau jurnaliști de travel. Experții de la Garden Tourism Award i-au acordat premiul Moselle Award în 2015, celebrele studiouri de film de la Bollywood își plasează o mulțime de scene în cadrul romantic al grădinii, iar turiștii indieni prevăd în agenda lor de călătorie un popas obligatoriu pentru o ședință foto-amintire. Cu câteva familii ne-am întâlnit în timpul vizitei noastre. Ne-a făcut plăcere să-i servim cu câteva instantanee fotogenice. Turiștii în general, vin aici în valuri, care corespund cu sosirea autocarului turistic, și rămân ore întregi fermecați de explozia floristică și originalitatea aranjamentelor.
\r\nMiniaturi de... 21 de metri
\r\nÎncă de la intrare pătrunzi în spațiul unui basm căci accesul se face prin miezul unei uriașe orhidee-poartă. Și de aici te scurgi, la propriu și la figurat, pe aleile poveștilor. Zâna cea bună te întâmpina cu apă răcoroasă curgându-i printre degete, inimi din arcade florale îți oferă umbra necesară, băcuțe cu forme delicate (păuni, lebede, flori) îți oferă loc de repaos. Aleile sunt flancate de valuri de flori ce ai senzația că se scurg pe lângă tine. O arhitectură vegetală te înconjoară în fiecare sector. În centrul grădinii domină, cum altfel, silueta celebrului Burj Al Khalifa, o ”miniatură” de numai... 21 de metri. Alături se distinge ușor Turnul Eiffel, încadrat de numeroase mori de vânt care par că sunt gata să se învârtă. Nu lipsesc castele englezești, scoțiene, galeze, pagodele nipone, palate, peisaje cu vile montane desprinse parcă din mici stațiuni din Alpii francezi ori elvețieni. Atmosfera medievală este întărită de uși străjuite de... ghivece pline de flori. Iar dacă nu ști cât este ora florile unui ceas imens îți indică timpul rămas până la închidere. Cascade de ape florale îți desfată mirosul iar dacă ești prea stors de soare te poți răsfăța cu o plimbare prin tunelul construit din umbrele multicolore. Puțin mai departe te poți opri la o cafea sau o răcoritoare, la cofertăria Miracle Garden, al cărui acoperiș protector este alcătuit dintr-o pepinieră de flori și ghivece. Aici sunt rezervele florale ce înlocuiesc permanent aranjamentele uscate de furtunile de nisip ori vântul deșertului. Pe terasă poți savura și o salată de fructe pe care ți-o poți face singur, din ceea ce ai la îndemână, căci aici există un spațiu special unde poți învăța și interacționa cu plantele !
\r\nCoboară în stația Fraților Grimm
\r\nDupă ce ți-ai tras sufletul merită să frecventezi zona... mijloacelor de transport. Senzația florară cea mai puternică este oferită de un tren ale cărui vagoane sunt umplute și decorate cu ghirlande de flori. Parcă ai fugit pe poarta basmelor Fraților Grimm. Dar stați, că nu e totul! După ce cobori într-o gară imaginară dai cu privirile într-o fantezie auto-florală care te fixează locului. N-ai cum să ocolești așa ceva. Câteva ”broscuțe” ce amintesc de personaje din benzile desenate găzduiesc aranjamente cu flori cățărătoare, iar alte zeci de autoturisme înfipte simetric cu botul în pământ, alcătuiesc parcă burduful unui acordeon imens. Din el în loc de sunete țînșesc flori luxuriante. Ei bine, era să uit, pentru cei care încă beau apă de la robinet le recomandăm să nu rateze vizitarea lacului în centrul căruia se află un robinet uriaș fermecat. El țânește de jos în sus, iar iluzia optică este foarte reușită. Magia grădinii nu se încheie aici. Te-ai hotărât să mergi spre ieșire? Nu ai cum să ocolești un aranjament artistic, o sculptură decorativă de mari dimensiuni cu flori-clopoței. E un alt semn că trebuie să revii în Dubai, chiar și numai pentru această bijuterie naturală smulsă deșertului.

\r\n\r\n\r\nRegina mă chemă în fiecare dimineaţă. Devreme pornesc de la vilă şi în 5 minute de pas alert merg către Izvorul 10 (denumit şi Kossuth), să iau apă proaspătă. Simt pădurea, trec pe lângă vilele tăcute, pline de caracter chiar dacă sunt lăsate în paragină. Inspir profund şi iarăşi îmi spun că, trăind într-un mare oraş, habar nu avem ce înseamnă aerul adevărat. La fel se întâmplă şi cu apa. În tot Borsecul (oraşul e partea de jos, iar staţinuea e Borsecul de Sus) curge la robinet o apă fabuloasă, cu un gust greu de explicat. La izvoarele minerale amenajate în staţiune, apa e la liber – adică minerală şi gratis! Ajung la foişorul traforat, vopsit în alb şi vişiniu şi aştept la coadă. Zilnic vin oameni din localităţile dar şi oraşele apropiate să ia apă (Topliţa e la 26 km, Piatra Neamţ la vreo 100 km, la puţin mai mult e Târgu Mureş). Îmi vine rândul să umplu sticla şi mă minunez din nou: habar nu aveam că apa minerală adevărată are gust şi îşi schimbă culoarea, perlajul dar şi proprietăţile în funcţie de temperatura la care e ţinută. Înainte să plec mai departe admir foişorul de lemn şi mă gândesc ce petrecere s-ar putea organiza aici ori cum cânta fanfara pe vremea reginei.\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5044,5045,5046,5047,5048,5049,5050,5051\"]\r\nE „Regina apelor minerale”!
\r\nFaima apelor de la Borsec a străbătut Transilvania în lung şi în lat din secolul al XVI-lea. Documentele vremii arată că în 1594 apa era transportată în butoaie de stejar, până la curtea domnească de la Alba Iulia, pentru tratamentele principelui Sigismund Bathory. În timp povestea a ajuns până la Viena unde, în 1873, apa îmbuteliată la Borsec a primit medalia Târgului Internațional de la Viena, fiind numită \"Regina Apelor Minerale \". În 2004 apa de la Bosec primeşte medalia de aur şi titlul de \"Cea Mai Bună Apă Minerală din Lume\" în cadrul celei mai importante competiţii de ape din întreaga lume – Berkely Springs International Water Tasting Awards în West Virginia. Despre regină vorbeşte cu o pasiune constantă dar bine ţinută în frâu domnul Kamenitzky Antal. Zilnic el străbate staţiunea în căutare de turişti pe care să îi agaţe cu poveştile sale. E un fel de localnic-ghid voluntar şi are în grijă Muzeul Apelor Minerale (singurul de acest fel din România). Clădirea nouă are o arhitectură potrivită zonei, de lemn. Este elegantă şi atrage. Muzeul e în centrul stațiunii, chiar în parcul de lângă fosta bază de tratament a oraşului (acum în paragină). În vitrinele bine luminate se pot vedea piese de arheologie romană, sticle de îmbuteliere a apei din diverse perioade şi fotocopii după documente şi fotografii de epocă arătând evoluţia Borsecului. Apa transilvană ajungea în anii ‘70 până în Spania, cu eticheta „La pluma roja”!!!
\r\nUn secol de eleganţă şi decădere
\r\nDin nou la plimbare prin Borsec constat cu mirare că una dintre vilele istorice, de la 1910, cu o superbă verandă de lemn, poartă numele de Kamentzky. E casa familiei ghidului, bunicul său fiind unul dintre mulţii europeni atraşi în timp de mirajul Borsecului. În anii 1800 austriecii Zimmetshausen şi Eisner (un inginer de mine) se mutau la Bosec şi deschideau prima fabrică de sticlă. Specialişti în fabricarea sticlei erau aduşi din Austria, Boemia, Bavaria şi Polonia. Numele lor au fost păstrate prin descendenţi ca Siller, Talmaier, Birman, Fokt etc. Staţiunea e foarte liniştită, ca un parc cu palate de poveste. E lipsită de agitaţia turismului (nu muzică tare, nu vânzători ambulanţi). Dacă eşti atent însă... se aude pădurea, imensa pădure ce înconjoară poiana Borsecului de sus.
\r\nAleile pietruite, băncile îngrijite, toată infrastructura refăcută la linie, dar şi zecile de pensiuni cochete, restaurate în culori potrivite, discrete, contrastează cu leneşele clădiri, azi proprietăţi private, lăsate să decadă. Acoperite cu văluri protectoare sau nu ele sunt şi au un potenţial fabulos (de arhitectură interbelică, imobiliar, turistic) care îşi aşteaptă investitorul. Vila nr. 51 (Emil) -1936, Vila nr. 53 (Doru) -1936, Vila nr. 60 – 1880 (Vasalopol), Vila nr. 56 (Barbu) 1896, Vechea uzină electrică – sfârșitul secolului XIX, Vila nr. 14 – 1933 – 1935 (Szentkovits) sunt declarate monumente arhitecturale. Bulevardul \"7 Izvoare\" este aleea centrală a stațiunii, denumirea ei venind de la ansamblul de izvoare captate, deschise liber publicului. Ele sunt îngrijite, accesul este uşor, sunt semnalizate turistic şi simplu de identificat. Câteva exemple sunt Izvoarele nr. 3 (Boldizsár), nr. 5 (László), nr. 6 (Lázár), nr. 10 (Kossuth), nr. 11 (Petőfi) Izvorul străvechi (Ősforrás) captate și amenajate cu foișoare la începutul sec.XX.
\r\nPoiana Zânelor - locul unde timpul uită de tine
\r\nDin centrul staţiunii e o plimbare de maxim 15 minute în pas lejer către fabuloasa rezervaţie „Scaunul Rotund”. Şi nu exagerez de loc când spun fabuloasă! Accesul este gratuit şi foarte uşor, există zonă de parcare, iar în rezervaţie sunt amenajate toalete ecologice (din lemn), bănci, măsuţe de luat masa, foişoare de odihnă. Toate atracţiile din rezervaţie sunt bine marcate.
\r\nZona se află la aproape 1000 de metri altitudine. Inspiri până în străfundul sufletului şi intri. În faţa ochilor se deschide o pajişte cu căpiţe de fân iar pe fundalul lor se profilează, în zeci de nuanţe de albastru şi verde, dealurile şi pădurile de brazi. La fiecare oră a zilei vântul pare să schimbe formele norilor, culorile, mireasma. Aici, în Poiana Zânelor, timpul uită uneori de tine. Stai pe iarbă, citeşti. Sunt două bazine de lemn, cochete, cu apă de 5 grade C. Zilnic, vara, câţiva localnici stau pe marginea lor cu picioarele în apă. Băile de aici sunt cunoscute pentru că ajută circulaţia periferică. Pâlcurile de sălcii ţin umbră iar, prin mlădierea lor, mai scapă parcă şoptite cuvinte din poveştile de zi cu zi ale localnicilor.
\r\nCa să vezi tot ce are de oferit rezervaţia trebuie să vii cel puţin o săptămână: stâncile, micile canioane şi chei, potecile, o înfrumuseţează ca o broderie a naturii. Către „Peștera Cu Stalactite”, „ Grota urșilor \" ori „Peștera de Gheață” se ajunge în 30-45 de minute în pas alert. Până la ruinele Cetăţii Bufniţelor e de urcat cale de mai bine de o oră. Pentru tratament la mofetă (în miniona casă de lemn de la răscruci) aveţi nevoie de cheie de la primărie (anunţaţi că vreţi să mergeţi şi vine cineva să vă deschidă zilnic).
\r\nPădurea e plină de ciuperci, pajiştile de flori şi plante aromate, bune de ceai şi leacuri de suflet. Însă ieşirea la carierele de travertin te lasă fără cuvinte. Muntele se deschide amplu iar carierele apar ca un amfiteatru antic, cu trepte uriaşe. Siluetele oamenilor se pierd printe blocurile de travertin care atrag parcă toată căldura soarelui. Carierele sunt acum abandonate dar travertinul de aici a fost exploatat și folosit la ornamentarea a numeroase instituții din România, inclusiv clădiri precum Palatul Parlamentului sau a unor stații de metrou din București. Valea Vinului se vede paşnică undeva în jos. Stând pe o laterală admir panomara, deschiderea, şi-mi imaginez cum ar fi să văd aici o piesă de teatru. Regina uitată e de acord cu mine: ar fi magnific!
\r\nDrumurile noastre se vor mai intersecta cu Borsecul într-un număr viitor!

Despre regină vorbeşte cu o pasiune constantă dar bine ţinută în frâu domnul Kamenitzky Antal. Zilnic el străbate staţiunea în căutare de turişti pe care să îi agaţe cu poveştile sale. E un fel de localnic-ghid voluntar şi are în grijă Muzeul Apelor Minerale (singurul de acest fel din România). Clădirea nouă are o arhitectură potrivită zonei, de lemn. Este elegantă şi atrage. Muzeul e în centrul stațiunii, chiar în parcul de lângă fosta bază de tratament a oraşului (acum în paragină). În vitrinele bine luminate se pot vedea piese de arheologie romană, sticle de îmbuteliere a apei din diverse perioade şi fotocopii după documente şi fotografii de epocă arătând evoluţia Borsecului. Apa transilvană ajungea în anii ‘70 până în Spania, cu eticheta „La pluma roja”!!!
\r\nUn secol de eleganţă şi decădere
\r\nDin nou la plimbare prin Borsec constat cu mirare că una dintre vilele istorice, de la 1910, cu o superbă verandă de lemn, poartă numele de Kamentzky. E casa familiei ghidului, bunicul său fiind unul dintre mulţii europeni atraşi în timp de mirajul Borsecului. În anii 1800 austriecii Zimmetshausen şi Eisner (un inginer de mine) se mutau la Bosec şi deschideau prima fabrică de sticlă. Specialişti în fabricarea sticlei erau aduşi din Austria, Boemia, Bavaria şi Polonia. Numele lor au fost păstrate prin descendenţi ca Siller, Talmaier, Birman, Fokt etc. Staţiunea e foarte liniştită, ca un parc cu palate de poveste. E lipsită de agitaţia turismului (nu muzică tare, nu vânzători ambulanţi). Dacă eşti atent însă... se aude pădurea, imensa pădure ce înconjoară poiana Borsecului de sus.
\r\nAleile pietruite, băncile îngrijite, toată infrastructura refăcută la linie, dar şi zecile de pensiuni cochete, restaurate în culori potrivite, discrete, contrastează cu leneşele clădiri, azi proprietăţi private, lăsate să decadă. Acoperite cu văluri protectoare sau nu ele sunt şi au un potenţial fabulos (de arhitectură interbelică, imobiliar, turistic) care îşi aşteaptă investitorul. Vila nr. 51 (Emil) -1936, Vila nr. 53 (Doru) -1936, Vila nr. 60 – 1880 (Vasalopol), Vila nr. 56 (Barbu) 1896, Vechea uzină electrică – sfârșitul secolului XIX, Vila nr. 14 – 1933 – 1935 (Szentkovits) sunt declarate monumente arhitecturale. Bulevardul \"7 Izvoare\" este aleea centrală a stațiunii, denumirea ei venind de la ansamblul de izvoare captate, deschise liber publicului. Ele sunt îngrijite, accesul este uşor, sunt semnalizate turistic şi simplu de identificat. Câteva exemple sunt Izvoarele nr. 3 (Boldizsár), nr. 5 (László), nr. 6 (Lázár), nr. 10 (Kossuth), nr. 11 (Petőfi) Izvorul străvechi (Ősforrás) captate și amenajate cu foișoare la începutul sec.XX.
\r\nPoiana Zânelor - locul unde timpul uită de tine
\r\nDin centrul staţiunii e o plimbare de maxim 15 minute în pas lejer către fabuloasa rezervaţie „Scaunul Rotund”. Şi nu exagerez de loc când spun fabuloasă! Accesul este gratuit şi foarte uşor, există zonă de parcare, iar în rezervaţie sunt amenajate toalete ecologice (din lemn), bănci, măsuţe de luat masa, foişoare de odihnă. Toate atracţiile din rezervaţie sunt bine marcate.
\r\nZona se află la aproape 1000 de metri altitudine. Inspiri până în străfundul sufletului şi intri. În faţa ochilor se deschide o pajişte cu căpiţe de fân iar pe fundalul lor se profilează, în zeci de nuanţe de albastru şi verde, dealurile şi pădurile de brazi. La fiecare oră a zilei vântul pare să schimbe formele norilor, culorile, mireasma. Aici, în Poiana Zânelor, timpul uită uneori de tine. Stai pe iarbă, citeşti. Sunt două bazine de lemn, cochete, cu apă de 5 grade C. Zilnic, vara, câţiva localnici stau pe marginea lor cu picioarele în apă. Băile de aici sunt cunoscute pentru că ajută circulaţia periferică. Pâlcurile de sălcii ţin umbră iar, prin mlădierea lor, mai scapă parcă şoptite cuvinte din poveştile de zi cu zi ale localnicilor.
\r\nCa să vezi tot ce are de oferit rezervaţia trebuie să vii cel puţin o săptămână: stâncile, micile canioane şi chei, potecile, o înfrumuseţează ca o broderie a naturii. Către „Peștera Cu Stalactite”, „ Grota urșilor \" ori „Peștera de Gheață” se ajunge în 30-45 de minute în pas alert. Până la ruinele Cetăţii Bufniţelor e de urcat cale de mai bine de o oră. Pentru tratament la mofetă (în miniona casă de lemn de la răscruci) aveţi nevoie de cheie de la primărie (anunţaţi că vreţi să mergeţi şi vine cineva să vă deschidă zilnic).
\r\nPădurea e plină de ciuperci, pajiştile de flori şi plante aromate, bune de ceai şi leacuri de suflet. Însă ieşirea la carierele de travertin te lasă fără cuvinte. Muntele se deschide amplu iar carierele apar ca un amfiteatru antic, cu trepte uriaşe. Siluetele oamenilor se pierd printe blocurile de travertin care atrag parcă toată căldura soarelui. Carierele sunt acum abandonate dar travertinul de aici a fost exploatat și folosit la ornamentarea a numeroase instituții din România, inclusiv clădiri precum Palatul Parlamentului sau a unor stații de metrou din București. Valea Vinului se vede paşnică undeva în jos. Stând pe o laterală admir panomara, deschiderea, şi-mi imaginez cum ar fi să văd aici o piesă de teatru. Regina uitată e de acord cu mine: ar fi magnific!
\r\nDrumurile noastre se vor mai intersecta cu Borsecul într-un număr viitor!

Albă, fină, roua sclipeşte discret pe verdele fâneţei ce o văd de la geam. Rapid mă îmbrac şi pornesc la întâlnirea cu regina uitată, căci, fără să o văd, simţ că nu mai pot... Ce rrromantic!!! De-a dreptul frumos, nu??? Pariem că aşa o sa vă treziţi în fiecare dimineaţă a vacanţei? Pregătiţi-vă deci de o vacanţă la Borsec.\n\n\n\nRegina mă chemă în fiecare dimineaţă. Devreme pornesc de la vilă şi în 5 minute de pas alert merg către Izvorul 10 (denumit şi Kossuth), să iau apă proaspătă. Simt pădurea, trec pe lângă vilele tăcute, pline de caracter chiar dacă sunt lăsate în paragină. Inspir profund şi iarăşi îmi spun că, trăind într-un mare oraş, habar nu avem ce înseamnă aerul adevărat. La fel se întâmplă şi cu apa. În tot Borsecul (oraşul e partea de jos, iar staţinuea e Borsecul de Sus) curge la robinet o apă fabuloasă, cu un gust greu de explicat. La izvoarele minerale amenajate în staţiune, apa e la liber – adică minerală şi gratis! Ajung la foişorul traforat, vopsit în alb şi vişiniu şi aştept la coadă. Zilnic vin oameni din localităţile dar şi oraşele apropiate să ia apă (Topliţa e la 26 km, Piatra Neamţ la vreo 100 km, la puţin mai mult e Târgu Mureş).

Înainte să plec mai departe admir foişorul de lemn şi mă gândesc ce petrecere s-ar putea organiza aici ori cum cânta fanfara pe vremea reginei.\n\n\nE „Regina apelor minerale”!
\nFaima apelor de la Borsec a străbătut Transilvania în lung şi în lat din secolul al XVI-lea. Documentele vremii arată că în 1594 apa era transportată în butoaie de stejar, până la curtea domnească de la Alba Iulia, pentru tratamentele principelui Sigismund Bathory. În timp povestea a ajuns până la Viena unde, în 1873, apa îmbuteliată la Borsec a primit medalia Târgului Internațional de la Viena, fiind numită \"Regina Apelor Minerale \". În 2004 apa de la Bosec primeşte medalia de aur şi titlul de \"Cea Mai Bună Apă Minerală din Lume\" în cadrul celei mai importante competiţii de ape din întreaga lume – Berkely Springs International Water Tasting Awards în West Virginia. Despre regină vorbeşte cu o pasiune constantă dar bine ţinută în frâu domnul Kamenitzky Antal. Zilnic el străbate staţiunea în căutare de turişti pe care să îi agaţe cu poveştile sale. E un fel de localnic-ghid voluntar şi are în grijă Muzeul Apelor Minerale (singurul de acest fel din România). Clădirea nouă are o arhitectură potrivită zonei, de lemn. Este elegantă şi atrage. Muzeul e în centrul stațiunii, chiar în parcul de lângă fosta bază de tratament a oraşului (acum în paragină). În vitrinele bine luminate se pot vedea piese de arheologie romană, sticle de îmbuteliere a apei din diverse perioade şi fotocopii după documente şi fotografii de epocă arătând evoluţia Borsecului. Apa transilvană ajungea în anii ‘70 până în Spania, cu eticheta „La pluma roja”!!!
\nUn secol de eleganţă şi decădere
\nDin nou la plimbare prin Borsec constat cu mirare că una dintre vilele istorice, de la 1910, cu o superbă verandă de lemn, poartă numele de Kamentzky. E casa familiei ghidului, bunicul său fiind unul dintre mulţii europeni atraşi în timp de mirajul Borsecului. În anii 1800 austriecii Zimmetshausen şi Eisner (un inginer de mine) se mutau la Bosec şi deschideau prima fabrică de sticlă. Specialişti în fabricarea sticlei erau aduşi din Austria, Boemia, Bavaria şi Polonia. Numele lor au fost păstrate prin descendenţi ca Siller, Talmaier, Birman, Fokt etc. Staţiunea e foarte liniştită, ca un parc cu palate de poveste. E lipsită de agitaţia turismului (nu muzică tare, nu vânzători ambulanţi). Dacă eşti atent însă... se aude pădurea, imensa pădure ce înconjoară poiana Borsecului de sus.
\nAleile pietruite, băncile îngrijite, toată infrastructura refăcută la linie, dar şi zecile de pensiuni cochete, restaurate în culori potrivite, discrete, contrastează cu leneşele clădiri, azi proprietăţi private, lăsate să decadă. Acoperite cu văluri protectoare sau nu ele sunt şi au un potenţial fabulos (de arhitectură interbelică, imobiliar, turistic) care îşi aşteaptă investitorul. Vila nr. 51 (Emil) -1936, Vila nr. 53 (Doru) -1936, Vila nr. 60 – 1880 (Vasalopol), Vila nr. 56 (Barbu) 1896, Vechea uzină electrică – sfârșitul secolului XIX, Vila nr. 14 – 1933 – 1935 (Szentkovits) sunt declarate monumente arhitecturale. Bulevardul \"7 Izvoare\" este aleea centrală a stațiunii, denumirea ei venind de la ansamblul de izvoare captate, deschise liber publicului. Ele sunt îngrijite, accesul este uşor, sunt semnalizate turistic şi simplu de identificat. Câteva exemple sunt Izvoarele nr. 3 (Boldizsár), nr. 5 (László), nr. 6 (Lázár), nr. 10 (Kossuth), nr. 11 (Petőfi) Izvorul străvechi (Ősforrás) captate și amenajate cu foișoare la începutul sec.XX.
\nPoiana Zânelor - locul unde timpul uită de tine
\nDin centrul staţiunii e o plimbare de maxim 15 minute în pas lejer către fabuloasa rezervaţie „Scaunul Rotund”. Şi nu exagerez de loc când spun fabuloasă! Accesul este gratuit şi foarte uşor, există zonă de parcare, iar în rezervaţie sunt amenajate toalete ecologice (din lemn), bănci, măsuţe de luat masa, foişoare de odihnă. Toate atracţiile din rezervaţie sunt bine marcate.
\nZona se află la aproape 1000 de metri altitudine. Inspiri până în străfundul sufletului şi intri. În faţa ochilor se deschide o pajişte cu căpiţe de fân iar pe fundalul lor se profilează, în zeci de nuanţe de albastru şi verde, dealurile şi pădurile de brazi. La fiecare oră a zilei vântul pare să schimbe formele norilor, culorile, mireasma. Aici, în Poiana Zânelor, timpul uită uneori de tine. Stai pe iarbă, citeşti. Sunt două bazine de lemn, cochete, cu apă de 5 grade C. Zilnic, vara, câţiva localnici stau pe marginea lor cu picioarele în apă. Băile de aici sunt cunoscute pentru că ajută circulaţia periferică. Pâlcurile de sălcii ţin umbră iar, prin mlădierea lor, mai scapă parcă şoptite cuvinte din poveştile de zi cu zi ale localnicilor.
\nCa să vezi tot ce are de oferit rezervaţia trebuie să vii cel puţin o săptămână: stâncile, micile canioane şi chei, potecile, o înfrumuseţează ca o broderie a naturii. Către „Peștera Cu Stalactite”, „ Grota urșilor \" ori „Peștera de Gheață” se ajunge în 30-45 de minute în pas alert. Până la ruinele Cetăţii Bufniţelor e de urcat cale de mai bine de o oră. Pentru tratament la mofetă (în miniona casă de lemn de la răscruci) aveţi nevoie de cheie de la primărie (anunţaţi că vreţi să mergeţi şi vine cineva să vă deschidă zilnic).
\nPădurea e plină de ciuperci, pajiştile de flori şi plante aromate, bune de ceai şi leacuri de suflet. Însă ieşirea la carierele de travertin te lasă fără cuvinte. Muntele se deschide amplu iar carierele apar ca un amfiteatru antic, cu trepte uriaşe. Siluetele oamenilor se pierd printe blocurile de travertin care atrag parcă toată căldura soarelui. Carierele sunt acum abandonate dar travertinul de aici a fost exploatat și folosit la ornamentarea a numeroase instituții din România, inclusiv clădiri precum Palatul Parlamentului sau a unor stații de metrou din București. Valea Vinului se vede paşnică undeva în jos. Stând pe o laterală admir panomara, deschiderea, şi-mi imaginez cum ar fi să văd aici o piesă de teatru. Regina uitată e de acord cu mine: ar fi magnific!
\nDrumurile noastre se vor mai intersecta cu Borsecul într-un număr viitor!

Devreme pornesc de la vilă şi în 5 minute de pas alert merg către Izvorul 10 (denumit şi Kossuth), să iau apă proaspătă. Simt pădurea, trec pe lângă vilele tăcute, pline de caracter chiar dacă sunt lăsate în paragină. Inspir profund şi iarăşi îmi spun că, trăind într-un mare oraş, habar nu avem ce înseamnă aerul adevărat. La fel se întâmplă şi cu apa. În tot Borsecul (oraşul e partea de jos, iar staţinuea e Borsecul de Sus) curge la robinet o apă fabuloasă, cu un gust greu de explicat.

\nS-ar putea să credeți - după ce ați văzut toate minunile arhitectonice, că Dubai-ul nu mai are secrete turistice. Dar nu este așa. Mai există miracole construite. Pentru a ajunge la unul dintre cele mai noi mergeți pe linia Orange a City Sightseeing Tours până la capăt. Stația: Miracle Garden! Aici vă veți întâlni cu un adevărat un tărâm de basm parcă desprins din basmele din 1001 de nopți, metamorfonzat în realitate, pentru noi turiștii - muritori de rând -, de către Abdel Nasser Rahhal, un inginer visător dar și un mare magician. Visul lui, susținut de proiecte de anvergură s-a concretizat în următoarele cifre: o investiție de 11 milioane de dolari, ce se întinde pe 72.000 de metri pătrați de deșert, peste 150 de milioane de fire de flori din 45 de specii, ”hrănite” zilnic prin picurarea a circa 800 de mii de litri de apă (provenită din apă menajeră reciclată), o casă a fluturilor cu 15.000 de locatari înaripați, ce reprezintă 26 de specii ce zboară meridianele mapamondului.
\nUn milion de vizitatori pe an
\nProgramul de funcționare este din Octombrie până în Aprilie. În intervalul Iunie-Septembrie Miracle Garden se odihnește fiind ferită de privirile vizitatorilor, dar mai ales de temperaturile de peste 45 de grade ostile oricărui tip de vegetație. Dar să nu credeți că vorbim despre o grădină botanică tradițională sau numai despre o expoziție floristică fabuloasă. Turiștii revin aici în fiecare an, deoarece tematica aranjamentelor se schimbă de la un sezon la altul. Exclus să te plictisește când vei reveni. Încă de la deschiderea parțială din februarie 2013 această grădină a miracolelor a atras un public numeros, în prezent înregistrându-se peste 30.000 de vizitatori... săptămânal (și cam un milion anual). De altfel Miracle Garden este considerată cea mai mare grădină a deșertului și a stârnit admirația tuturor de la turiști la specialiști, artiști sau jurnaliști de travel. Experții de la Garden Tourism Award i-au acordat premiul Moselle Award în 2015, celebrele studiouri de film de la Bollywood își plasează o mulțime de scene în cadrul romantic al grădinii, iar turiștii indieni prevăd în agenda lor de călătorie un popas obligatoriu pentru o ședință foto-amintire. Cu câteva familii ne-am întâlnit în timpul vizitei noastre. Ne-a făcut plăcere să-i servim cu câteva instantanee fotogenice. Turiștii în general, vin aici în valuri, care corespund cu sosirea autocarului turistic, și rămân ore întregi fermecați de explozia floristică și originalitatea aranjamentelor.
\nMiniaturi de... 21 de metri
\nÎncă de la intrare pătrunzi în spațiul unui basm căci accesul se face prin miezul unei uriașe orhidee-poartă. Și de aici te scurgi, la propriu și la figurat, pe aleile poveștilor. Zâna cea bună te întâmpina cu apă răcoroasă curgându-i printre degete, inimi din arcade florale îți oferă umbra necesară, băcuțe cu forme delicate (păuni, lebede, flori) îți oferă loc de repaos. Aleile sunt flancate de valuri de flori ce ai senzația că se scurg pe lângă tine. O arhitectură vegetală te înconjoară în fiecare sector. În centrul grădinii domină, cum altfel, silueta celebrului Burj Al Khalifa, o ”miniatură” de numai... 21 de metri. Alături se distinge ușor Turnul Eiffel, încadrat de numeroase mori de vânt care par că sunt gata să se învârtă. Nu lipsesc castele englezești, scoțiene, galeze, pagodele nipone, palate, peisaje cu vile montane desprinse parcă din mici stațiuni din Alpii francezi ori elvețieni. Atmosfera medievală este întărită de uși străjuite de... ghivece pline de flori. Iar dacă nu ști cât este ora florile unui ceas imens îți indică timpul rămas până la închidere. Cascade de ape florale îți desfată mirosul iar dacă ești prea stors de soare te poți răsfăța cu o plimbare prin tunelul construit din umbrele multicolore. Puțin mai departe te poți opri la o cafea sau o răcoritoare, la cofertăria Miracle Garden, al cărui acoperiș protector este alcătuit dintr-o pepinieră de flori și ghivece. Aici sunt rezervele florale ce înlocuiesc permanent aranjamentele uscate de furtunile de nisip ori vântul deșertului. Pe terasă poți savura și o salată de fructe pe care ți-o poți face singur, din ceea ce ai la îndemână, căci aici există un spațiu special unde poți învăța și interacționa cu plantele !
\nCoboară în stația Fraților Grimm
\nDupă ce ți-ai tras sufletul merită să frecventezi zona... mijloacelor de transport. Senzația florară cea mai puternică este oferită de un tren ale cărui vagoane sunt umplute și decorate cu ghirlande de flori. Parcă ai fugit pe poarta basmelor Fraților Grimm. Dar stați, că nu e totul! După ce cobori într-o gară imaginară dai cu privirile într-o fantezie auto-florală care te fixează locului. N-ai cum să ocolești așa ceva. Câteva ”broscuțe” ce amintesc de personaje din benzile desenate găzduiesc aranjamente cu flori cățărătoare, iar alte zeci de autoturisme înfipte simetric cu botul în pământ, alcătuiesc parcă burduful unui acordeon imens. Din el în loc de sunete țînșesc flori luxuriante. Ei bine, era să uit, pentru cei care încă beau apă de la robinet le recomandăm să nu rateze vizitarea lacului în centrul căruia se află un robinet uriaș fermecat. El țânește de jos în sus, iar iluzia optică este foarte reușită. Magia grădinii nu se încheie aici. Te-ai hotărât să mergi spre ieșire? Nu ai cum să ocolești un aranjament artistic, o sculptură decorativă de mari dimensiuni cu flori-clopoței.

S-ar putea să credeți - după ce ați văzut toate minunile arhitectonice, că Dubai-ul nu mai are secrete turistice. Dar nu este așa. Mai există miracole construite. Pentru a ajunge la unul dintre cele mai noi mergeți pe linia Orange a City Sightseeing Tours până la capăt. Stația: Miracle Garden! Aici vă veți întâlni cu un adevărat un tărâm de basm parcă desprins din basmele din 1001 de nopți, metamorfonzat în realitate, pentru noi turiștii - muritori de rând -, de către Abdel Nasser Rahhal, un inginer visător dar și un mare magician. Visul lui, susținut de proiecte de anvergură s-a concretizat în următoarele cifre: o investiție de 11 milioane de dolari, ce se întinde pe 72.000 de metri pătrați de deșert, peste 150 de milioane de fire de flori din 45 de specii, ”hrănite” zilnic prin picurarea a circa 800 de mii de litri de apă (provenită din apă menajeră reciclată), o casă a fluturilor cu 15.000 de locatari înaripați, ce reprezintă 26 de specii ce zboară meridianele mapamondului.\r\n
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5056,5057,5058,5059,5060,5061,5062,5063\"]\r\nUn milion de vizitatori pe an
\r\nProgramul de funcționare este din Octombrie până în Aprilie. În intervalul Iunie-Septembrie Miracle Garden se odihnește fiind ferită de privirile vizitatorilor, dar mai ales de temperaturile de peste 45 de grade ostile oricărui tip de vegetație. Dar să nu credeți că vorbim despre o grădină botanică tradițională sau numai despre o expoziție floristică fabuloasă. Turiștii revin aici în fiecare an, deoarece tematica aranjamentelor se schimbă de la un sezon la altul. Exclus să te plictisește când vei reveni. Încă de la deschiderea parțială din februarie 2013 această grădină a miracolelor a atras un public numeros, în prezent înregistrându-se peste 30.000 de vizitatori... săptămânal (și cam un milion anual). De altfel Miracle Garden este considerată cea mai mare grădină a deșertului și a stârnit admirația tuturor de la turiști la specialiști, artiști sau jurnaliști de travel. Experții de la Garden Tourism Award i-au acordat premiul Moselle Award în 2015, celebrele studiouri de film de la Bollywood își plasează o mulțime de scene în cadrul romantic al grădinii, iar turiștii indieni prevăd în agenda lor de călătorie un popas obligatoriu pentru o ședință foto-amintire. Cu câteva familii ne-am întâlnit în timpul vizitei noastre. Ne-a făcut plăcere să-i servim cu câteva instantanee fotogenice. Turiștii în general, vin aici în valuri, care corespund cu sosirea autocarului turistic, și rămân ore întregi fermecați de explozia floristică și originalitatea aranjamentelor.
\r\nMiniaturi de... 21 de metri
\r\nÎncă de la intrare pătrunzi în spațiul unui basm căci accesul se face prin miezul unei uriașe orhidee-poartă. Și de aici te scurgi, la propriu și la figurat, pe aleile poveștilor. Zâna cea bună te întâmpina cu apă răcoroasă curgându-i printre degete, inimi din arcade florale îți oferă umbra necesară, băcuțe cu forme delicate (păuni, lebede, flori) îți oferă loc de repaos. Aleile sunt flancate de valuri de flori ce ai senzația că se scurg pe lângă tine. O arhitectură vegetală te înconjoară în fiecare sector. În centrul grădinii domină, cum altfel, silueta celebrului Burj Al Khalifa, o ”miniatură” de numai... 21 de metri. Alături se distinge ușor Turnul Eiffel, încadrat de numeroase mori de vânt care par că sunt gata să se învârtă. Nu lipsesc castele englezești, scoțiene, galeze, pagodele nipone, palate, peisaje cu vile montane desprinse parcă din mici stațiuni din Alpii francezi ori elvețieni. Atmosfera medievală este întărită de uși străjuite de... ghivece pline de flori. Iar dacă nu ști cât este ora florile unui ceas imens îți indică timpul rămas până la închidere. Cascade de ape florale îți desfată mirosul iar dacă ești prea stors de soare te poți răsfăța cu o plimbare prin tunelul construit din umbrele multicolore. Puțin mai departe te poți opri la o cafea sau o răcoritoare, la cofertăria Miracle Garden, al cărui acoperiș protector este alcătuit dintr-o pepinieră de flori și ghivece. Aici sunt rezervele florale ce înlocuiesc permanent aranjamentele uscate de furtunile de nisip ori vântul deșertului. Pe terasă poți savura și o salată de fructe pe care ți-o poți face singur, din ceea ce ai la îndemână, căci aici există un spațiu special unde poți învăța și interacționa cu plantele !
\r\nCoboară în stația Fraților Grimm
\r\nDupă ce ți-ai tras sufletul merită să frecventezi zona... mijloacelor de transport. Senzația florară cea mai puternică este oferită de un tren ale cărui vagoane sunt umplute și decorate cu ghirlande de flori. Parcă ai fugit pe poarta basmelor Fraților Grimm. Dar stați, că nu e totul! După ce cobori într-o gară imaginară dai cu privirile într-o fantezie auto-florală care te fixează locului. N-ai cum să ocolești așa ceva. Câteva ”broscuțe” ce amintesc de personaje din benzile desenate găzduiesc aranjamente cu flori cățărătoare, iar alte zeci de autoturisme înfipte simetric cu botul în pământ, alcătuiesc parcă burduful unui acordeon imens. Din el în loc de sunete țînșesc flori luxuriante. Ei bine, era să uit, pentru cei care încă beau apă de la robinet le recomandăm să nu rateze vizitarea lacului în centrul căruia se află un robinet uriaș fermecat. El țânește de jos în sus, iar iluzia optică este foarte reușită. Magia grădinii nu se încheie aici. Te-ai hotărât să mergi spre ieșire? Nu ai cum să ocolești un aranjament artistic, o sculptură decorativă de mari dimensiuni cu flori-clopoței. E un alt semn că trebuie să revii în Dubai, chiar și numai pentru această bijuterie naturală smulsă deșertului.

Hotelul, reclasificat de la 2 la 3 stele, oferă 158 de camere și 8 apartamente, cu o capacitate totală de 300 de locuri. Investitorii, frații Alexandrescu, și-au vândut anul trecut afacerea (condimente și ingrediente pentru prăjituri Alex & Comp către Fuchs și Dr. Oetker), pentru suma de 8 milioane de euro.

O parte au fost contractate deja în regim de proprietate periodică, iar 250-300 de camere vor fi închiriate în regim hotelier din sezonul 2016. Serviciile hoteliere vor fi, deocamdată de 3 stele. Suprafața totală a complexului este de 72.000 metri pătrați și cuprinde pe lânga cele 7 tronsoane proiectate și piscine exterioare pentru adulți și copii, restaurante, baruri, cluburi, zona dedicată copiilor și un teatru de vară în formă de amfiteatru. Complexul beneficiază și de o plajă privată de aproximativ 10.000 de metri pătrați. Investiția, estimată la circa 100 de milioane de euro va fi finalizată în următorii 3 ani.\nPREDEAL: Bucovală a pus ochii pe pârtie
\nProprietar a cinci hoteluri de pe litoral - amplasate la Mamaia (Tomis), Venus (Cupidon) și Eforie Nord (Delfinul, Meduza și Steaua de Mare) -, omul de afaceri Nicolae Bucovala, a anunțat că va investi de anul viitor și într-un hotel din stațiunea montană Predeal. Complexul de vacanță urmează să fie amplasat lângă pârtia Cioplea. Proiectul arhitectural ce a costat 140.000 de euro, are în vedere o capacitate de cazare de circa 100 de camere, și se va desfășura pe o suprafață de 3.000 de metri pătrați. În paralel sunt finisate ultimele lucrări la hotelul Steaua de Mare, al treilea din complexul cu același nume ce totalizează 1.400 de locuri de cazare. Odată cu acesta intră în circuit și o bază de tratament modernă, care include și un centru SPA, investiție care se ridică la peste 3,5 milioane de euro. Resursele financiare alocate pentru reconstrucția și remodelarea complexului din Eforie Nord, se vor ridica, în final, la circa 15-16 milioane de euro, sumă ce include și valoarea achiziției hotelurilor.\n\nDOFTANA: ATRA, invitație de business\n\nATRA Doftana a început promovarea conceptului de pro-teambuilding, mai exact ideea de teambuilding tradiţional, dar productiv.

Încă un record a fost doborât în 2015. Pe plan mondial s-au înregistrat 1,184 miliarde de turiști internaționali, ceea ce consemnează o creștere cu 4,4%. Adică cu aproximativ 50 de milioane de persoane mai mult, comparativ cu recordul înregistrat în 2014.\n\n
Ce spun UNWTO și WTTC ?
\nOptimismul Organizației Mondiale a Turismului (UNWTO) este împărtășit și de secretarul general al UNWTO, Taleb Rifai, care declara că ”2015 este al 6-lea an consecutiv în care turismul internațional continuă să crească peste trendul pe termen lung prognozat de UNWTO în perioada 2010-2020, de 3,8%. Pentru 2016, organizația noastră estimează o nouă dinamică de 4% a circulației mondiale”.\n\n
La rândul său Consiliul Mondial al Turismului și Călătoriilor (WTTC), apreciază că sectorul turismului a creat anul trecut 7,2 milioane locuri de muncă și a contribuit cu 7.200 miliarde de dolari la economia mondială. Președintele forului David Scowsill, sublinia că ”Pentru acest an ne așteptăm la o contribuție totală a sectorului turismului la PIB ce ar urma să crească cu 3,5%. WTTC estimează că în viitorul deceniu ”industria fără fum” va înregistra performanțe superioare economiei mondiale. În pofida incertitudinilor cu privire la economia globală și a provocărilor specifice cu care s-a confruntat anul trecut, sectorul turismului a crescut cu 3,7%, contribuind în ansamblu cu 9,8% la PIB-ul mondial. Ca o idee numărul celor care au vizitat Europa, Asia-Pacific și continentul american a crescut cu 5% în toate cele trei cazuri, în schimb a scăzut cu 8% în Africa de Nord, unde țări precum Tunisia au fost afectate de atentate. Anul trecut, o serie de acte teroriste au afectat câteva importante destinații turistice mondiale precum Tunisia, Egiptul și Turcia. Potrivit studiului anual de impact economic elaborat de WTTC, contribuția directă a turismului la creșterea PIB-ului a depășit în 2015 ritmul general de creșterea a PIB-ului în 127 din cele 184 de țări incluse în acest raport. Printre statele unde turismul a înregistrat performanțe superioare economiei în 2015 se numără Islanda, Japonia, Mexic, Noua Zeelandă, Qatarul, Arabia Saudită, Thailanda și Uganda.\n\n
EUROSTAT - România joacă încă în liga secundă
\nPotrivit datelor prezentate de Eurostat, străinii care au vizitat România anul trecut, au petrecut 4,5 milioane de nopți, în creștere cu 18,3%, de la 3,8 milioane de nopți în 2014. Numărul total al înnoptărilor (români și străini) în structurile de primire turistică a crescut, în aceeași perioadă, cu aproape 16%, ajungând la 23,4 milioane, cel mai mare avans la nivelul Uniunii Europene.\n\n
\nÎnnoptările la nivelul UE au crescut cu 3,2%, la peste 2,76 miliarde, din care 1,26 miliarde reprezintă nopțile petrecute de non-rezidenți. Țara noastră rămâne însă printre destinațiile mai puțin căutate de străini. La același pol mai figurează Slovacia - 4,3 milioane de nopți petrecute de turiștii străini, Estonia - 3,8 milioane de nopți, Lituania și Letonia - câte 2,9 milioane de nopți. Aceste destinații au suprafețe și populații cu mult mai mici decât România. Conform Eurostat cea mai căutată destinație a fost Spania, cu 268 milioane de nopți, respectiv 21% din totalul nopților petrecute de non-rezidenți în structurile de cazare din UE, urmată de Italia cu 191 de milioane, sau 15% din total, respectiv Franța cu 134 milioane de nopți (11%).
\nINS - Ponderea aparține business-turismului
\nÎn 2015 numărul turiștilor nerezidenți cazați în structurile de primire colective a fost de 2.231.000, iar cheltuielile acestora s-au ridicat în total la 5.634,5 milioane de lei. Conform Institutului Național de Statistică (INS), anul trecut structura circulației turistice nu și-a modificat foarte mult configurația. Principalul motiv al sejurului petrecut de turiștii nerezidenți în România l-a reprezentat afacerile, participarea la congrese, conferințe, cursuri, târguri și expoziții - 55,9% din numărul total al nerezidenților, cheltuielile acestora reprezentând 59,5% din total. Cel de al doilea motiv l‐a constituit călătoriile particulare - 44,1%, dintre acestea evidențiindu‐se cele pentru vacanțe - 62%.
\nDin totalul cheltuielilor pentru afaceri, ponderea cea mai mare o reprezintă cele pentru cazare - 53,3%, fiind preferată cazarea cu mic dejun inclus - 90,2%. Cheltuielile turiștilor nerezidenți în restaurante și baruri au fost de 16,4%, iar cele pentru cumpărături au reprezentat 12,7%.
\nCheltuielile pentru închirierea de autoturisme au avut o pondere de 61% din totalul cheltuielilor pentru transport. Din totalul nerezidenților sosiți în România, 49% și‐au organizat sejurul prin agenții de turism, iar 28,7%, atenție, tendință în creștere -, și‐au organizat singuri sejurul.
\nPrincipalul mijloc de transport utilizat de turiștii nerezidenți pentru a sosi în România a fost avionul - 77,8% din numărul total de călători. Autoturismele proprii au reprezentat 12,5%, urmate de autocare și autobuze cu 8,7%, alte mijloace - 1%.
\nCum stăm cu capacitatea de cazare !
\nSe pare că din ce în ce mai bine, în urma investițiilor succesive făcute în modernizarea vechilor structuri cu capacități mari, dar și în construcția unora noi, în majoritate hoteluri medii și mici, respectiv pensiuni agroturistice, urbane și rurale. Tot conform INS la 31 iulie 2015 funcționau în Romania 1.545 de hoteluri. Majoritatea unităților, respectiv 51,1% erau încadrate la categoria 3 stele și 23,7% au fost la 2 stele. Hotelurile cu 5 stele au fost 34, cu 3 mai mult ca la 31 iulie 2014, iar cele cu standarde de 4 stele au fost 294, cu 27 mai multe decat în perioada amintită. Primele cinci județe, ierarhizate după numărul total de structuri turistice existente au fost: Brașov - 886 structuri de cazare, Constanța - 755, Harghita - 357, Sibiu - 315 și Prahova - 314.
\nDin totalul de 148.100 de camere existente în structurile turistice cu funcțiuni de cazare existente în iulie anul trecut (exclusiv camerele din căsuțe), 95.400 (reprezentânt 64,4% din total), erau în hoteluri. Numărul camerelor a crescut în 2015 cu circa 4250 în pensiunile turistice și agroturistice, cu 1666 în hoteluri și cu peste 1100 în hosteluri, cabane turistice și sate de vacanță. Numărul locurilor de cazare existente la 31 iulie 2015 a fost de 328.000. Cele mai multe locuri 190.300 erau în hoteluri, urmate de pensiunile turistice și agroturistice cu un total de 67.300 etc.

\nDacă nu știați aflați acum! De trei ani, în ultima decadă a lunii mai se organizează, la Constanța, Festivalul Scoicilor. Acum a căzut în perioada 21-23 mai. Evenimentul și-a etalat chefii și delicatesele lor chiar în jurul statuii emblematice a lui Ovidiu din piața cu același nume. Au fost interesate vreo 25 de restaurante din Constanța, Mamaia, Mangalia, Eforii dar și din București. De la localurile Nikos Greek Taverna, Le Premier, (cu Cesar Alonso Velasquez Baez şi cel mai mare ceaun din Piaţa Ovidiu) Cocoşu Roşu (cu Gabriel Toader şi Alexandru Rosz) și Piccolo Mondo din București, Restaurantul Steaua de Mare din Eforie Nord (cu Alex Negoiţă), Restaurant Beluga din Mamaia, (cu Filip Alexandru) Restaurantul Aqua by the sea, până la Restaurant Lino (cu Mayla Annalisa). Ei au gătit sub ochii exigenți ai Chef Cătălin Scărlătescu, preparate după rețete proprii: tocănițe de midii, midii sotate cu vin alb sau roşu cu patrunjel şi usturoi, supe, scoici pane, marinate sau tempura, paste, salate diferite cu rapane şi sosuri asiatice etc.\n\n\nA treia ediție a “Festivalului Scoicilor” a avut în juriu, premieră și pe Anca Nedea, președintele ANT. Marele Trofeu, într-adevăr mare și greu - o scoică din bronz, cu o greutate de... 12 kilograme - a fost ridicat de Alex Negoiţă și echipa de la Complexul Steaua de Mare din Eforie Nord. Organizatorii spun că de Festival ar fi fost atrași circa 80.000 de amatori de scoici.

\nE-BIKE NET pune biciclete pe frontiere
\n16 orașe din România și tot atâtea din Bulgaria vor fi contectate cu ajutorul unui proiect transfrontalier finanțat din fonduri europene, prin programul interreg V-A Romania-Bulgaria 2014-2015, la proiectul E-bike Net. În cadrul acestuia în cele 32 de localități sunt disponibile 240 de biciclete electrice. Fiecare turist poate închiria un asemenea vehicul pentru 3 ore, la preț de 1 euro, timp în care poate să exploreze zone turistice de pe o parte și de alta a Dunării. Bicicletele electrice au setată viteza maximă de 25 km/h și permit parcurgerea unei distanțe între 50 și 70 de kilometri, cu efort minim. De asemenea vor exista 35 de puncte în ambele țări în care pot fi încărcați acumlatorii bicicletelor. Fiecare stație permite încărcarea a cinci biciclete simultan. Ele pot fi închiriate, în România, din: Giurgiu, Drobeta-Turnu Severin, Călărași, Constanța, Craiova, Alexandria, Medgidia, Mangalia, Caracal, Roșiorii de Vede, Turnu Măgurele, Cernavodă, Năvodari, Slatina, Oltenița și Calafat. Din Bulgaria bicicletele pot fi închiriate din: Dobrich, Varna, Veliko Tarnovo, Pleven, Vratsa, Gorna Oryahovitsa, Svishtov, Mezdra, Balchik, Lom, Montana, Cherven Bryag, Dulovo, Oryahovo, Silistra si Vidin.
\nProiectul este dezvoltat de ADRC, Centrul de Afaceri-Vidin, CCI Vidin,Asociația Română pentru Industria Electronică și Software Oltenia, respectiv Asociația Angajatorilor pentru întreprinderi mici și mijlocii Calafat. Bugetul proiectului este de 762.085 euro.

MUNȚII APUSENI: Primul muzeu viu\n\n
\nUn proiect independent de antreprenoriat social al Asociației Groove ON, început în decembrie 2015 va fi lansat în această vară în Munții Apuseni. Mai precis în satul Tecșești (județul Alba), ce mai are doar 14 locuitori, va fi deschis integral primul muzeu viu din România. Muzeul Viu este unic prin faptul că oferă publicului posibilitatea de a trăi într-un spațiu care reconstituie istoria acestor ținuturi de mocani, de aici și denumirea de muzeu viu. Locuitorii muzeului vor proveni preponderent din mijlocul comunității pasionate de originile poporului român, de legendele dacice, etnografie, antropologie și folclor, comunitate care și finanțează această inițiativă inedită.
\nProiectul ”La Origini – Muzeul Viu” a fost și este susținut prin platforma de crowdfunding Indiegogo, cu sume care variază între 15 și 1000 de euro. Muzeul este organizat pe mai multe sectoare care acoperă diferite perioade istorice dar și meșteșugurile ori tradițiile aferente acestora. Printre atracții se numără: locuințe refăcute din pământ și piatră, cu acoperișuri de paie; școala restaurată într-o casă veche de 200 de ani; ateliere de ceramică, cuptoare pentru arderea lutului dar și a pâinii; grădini de legume, de plante aromatice, pomi fructiferi etc.
\nPotențial excepțional: Piatra Craiului-Păpușa
\nRomânia ar putea avea cel mai mare parc național din Europa, în zona munților Piatra Craiului, Făgăraș, Leaota și Iezer-Păpusa, ceea ce ar reprezenta un potențial turistic imens apreciază reprezentanții ministerului Mediului, Apelor și Pădurilor. Ei au efectuat împreună cu experți naționali dar și internaționali de la Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA) o vizită de evaluare a acestui areal. Conform specialiștilor zona, cu o suprafață combinată de peste 200.000 hectare, ar putea deveni o arie naturală protejată sălbatică, emblematică pentru Europa, precum este Yellowstone pentru SUA sau Parcul Național Serengeti pentru Africa.
\nRomânia adăpostește cele mai valoroase ecosisteme din Europa pe circa 1,6 milioane de hectare (rezervații știintifice, naturale, parcuri naționale și naturale, monumente ale naturii), la care se adaugă Rezervația Biosferei Delta Dunării, cu cele 580.000 hectare. Ariile naturale protejate înființate în țara noastră, inclusiv siturile Natura 2000 - Arii naturale protejate de interes European - reprezintă 23% din suprafața țării, iar din acest areal pădurile reprezinta 45% din fondul forestier național. Parcurile naționale și naturale (fără Delta Dunării) reprezintă doar 5% din suprafața României.
\nCAMPANIE CE - ”Există minuni pretutindeni!”\n\n
Comisia Europeană a lansat în această lună o campanie de comunicare în domeniul turismului denumită „Europa. Există minuni pretutindeni.” Aceasta are drept obiectiv atragerea europenilor către descoperirea atracțiilor ascunse ale Europei și îi provoacă să preia inițiativa: să povestească despre destinațiile preferate, sensibilizându-i astfel și pe ceilalți și motivându-i să opteze pentru destinații turistice europene diverse, durabile și de calitate superioară.
\nContribuția turismului la economiile europene este semnificativă, ridicându-se în anul 2014 la peste 1,6 trilioane de euro, ceea ce reprezintă aproximativ 10 % din PIB-ul total al UE. Conform WTTC prin impactul său direct, indirect și implicit, acest sector a susținut 25 de milioane de locuri de muncă la nivelul UE. Totuși, continua expansiune și diversificare a pieței turismului este vizibilă, iar în ultimele decenii au apărut multe destinații noi și în afara Europei. Statisticile arată că, până în anul 2025, doar o treime (33 %) din sosirile internaționale vor fi pe teritoriul UE, în scădere de la 40 % în anul 2010 și, respectiv, 56 % în 1980. ”Prin urmare, obiectivul Comisiei Europene este acela de a menține poziția Europei ca principală destinație turistică, maximizând totodată contribuția sectorului turismului la creșterea economică și ocuparea forței de muncă” - se arată într-un comunicat de presă remis redacției noastre.

Inițiativa Hoteluri aproape Zero Energie (neZEH) are ca scop principal accelerarea modernizării complexelor existente în scopul transformării acestora în Clădiri aproape Zero Energie. Din acest proiect pilot, care va dura 3 ani și se va încheia în 2016 fac parte, la nivel european 16 hoteluri ce activează în 7 țări (Croația, Franța, Grecia, Italia, România, Spania și Suedia). Proiectul european Nearly Zero Energy Hotel (neZEH) este cofinanțat prin Programul Energie Inteligentă Europa (IEE) al Comisiei Europene. El este condus de un consorțiu format din 10 parteneri, țara noastră fiind reprezentată de Agenția pentru Managementul Energiei și Protecția Mediului Brașov. \r\n\r\nARAD - Primul Ibis Styles din România\r\n![\"gilles-clavie-presedinte-si-ceo-al-orbis-hotel\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Gilles-Clavie-Presedinte-si-CEO-al-Orbis-Hotel.jpg\")
\r\n \r\n\r\nOrbis Hotel Group, cea mai mare rețea hotelieră din Europa de Est și unicul licențiator în regiune pentru toate brandurile AccorHotels, împreună cu partenerul său de dezvoltare FAB Industry, au anunțat începerea lucrărilor de construcție la primul hotel ibis Styles din țară.

Alegerea unei teme speciale de design pentru noul ibis Styles Arad a fost ancorată în trei motive importante. Pe de o parte, Arad are o vastă moștenire industrială, din primii ani ai secolului XX. În al doilea rând, noul hotel este situat în proximitatea celui mai important centru industrial al orașului, Zona Industrială de Vest. Un alt argument puternic pentru încorporarea industriei în ADN-ul noului hotel este trecutul companiei proprietare, FAB Industry, puternic legat de domeniul construcțiilor industriale și de istoria industrială a Aradului. \"Suntem încrezători că, prin introducerea în orașul nostru a unui operator hotelier lider la nivel internațional precum Orbis/AccorHotels precum ibis Styles, consolidăm poziția Aradului, atât pe\r\n![\"style-arad-2\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Style-arad-2.jpg\")

Carabin a condus timp de 8 ani în Polonia două hoteluri din lanțul Sofitel. „Pe lângă consolidarea poziției pe piața călătoriilor de afaceri, care încă reprezintă mai mult de 75% din activitatea noastră, am inițiat parteneriate cu agenții de turism și instituții culturale, cu scopul de a dezvolta și diversifica segmentul turistic” - a declarat Patrick Carabin.

Conde și-a inceput cariera la academia CEGA - Centro de Estudios Gastronomicos din Venezuela. Povestea lui Chef Conde cu Hilton Hotels & Resorts a început în 2007 când s-a alaturat echipei hotelului Hilton din Amsterdam, unde a petrecut 9 ani în calitate de bucătar șef al hotelului. În timpul acesta a relansat conceptul restaurantului Roberto’s, a scris rețetele și a conceput design-ul pentru cartea de bucate a restaurantului - „Pura Cucina Italiana” etc.

Atunci când marea foamete și seceta s-au abătut asupra acestor proprietăți sclavii au început să cultive orezul aliment cu care au fost salvați atât ei cât și stăpânii lor. Cum era de așteptat acesta a devenit în scurt timp un aliment de bază pe care gastronomia locală l-a ridicat la rang de... rege culinar.\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5191,5190,5189,5188\"]\r\n\r\nJambalaya, celebra hrană cu orez și mărun taie de pui este nelipsită din meniurile zilnice. Așa a apărut ca o necesitate de a face față hrănirii cât mai multor persoane iar astăzi s-a transformat într-o delicatesă...populară a Sudului. După câte trebuie să vă aduceți aminte există și o melodie cu acest nume. Populațiile cajun și creole au adus cu ele această ancestrală moștenire. Astfel au să apărut mâncărurile condimentate pe bază de ardei iute.\r\n\r\nIntră în „scenă” celebrul sos „Tabascos” produs doar în insula Avery din 1800 și devenit faimos în întreaga lume. Există nu mai puțin de 40 de variante de sosuri picante. Din acest amal gam de tradiții culinare apare și cel mai special dulce: celebrul Bread pudding. O rețetă pe bază de pâine, lapte, ouă, whiskey, unt și desigur secretul fiecărui patiser. Doar străbătând cartierele istorice ale New Orleansului îți poți face o imagine asupra bogăției și diversității culinare.\r\n\r\nObligatoriu trebuie să frecventați celebra French Market, locul unde se terminau străzile Cartierului Francez, partea sa cea mai săracă și muncitoare, denumită nu întâmplător în trecut „locul bărbaților dispăruți”. Mulți dintre cei care se aventurau noaptea în baruri și bordeluri erau jefuiți și chiar omorâți. După ce străbați sectorul tarabelor pline de mărfuri pentru turiși ajungi în celebra „Flea Market”. E raiul gurmanzilor și am simțit asta din plin. Istoria locului începe pe la 1800. De atunci în fiecare zi produsele proaspete și cele preparate – zarzavaturi, pește proaspăt, pui, condimente din belșug –, strigă după tine. Și de lemn să fii și tot nu reziști să guști din preparatele făcute în fața ochilor tăi. Unul dintre cele mai palpitante locuri, celebru și reconfortant de prin 1862, este „Cafe du Monde”. Afacerea unor francezi administrată azi de americani.\r\n\r\nE în stilul istoriei locale. De atunci aici se servesc fără întrerupere cafea cu... cicoare și lapte și faimoasele Beignets, gogoși pripite înecate în zahăr vanilat. Ca să găsești o masă liberă trebuie să te înarmezi cu răbdare. Toate națiile de turiști roiesc aici să consume dar și să-și facă fotografii memorabile. {sta-i turismul și este chiar plăcut pentru că din stradă, pe lângă valul de căldură – 40 de grade la umbră e parfum de tei –, vine spre tine și muzica, ce altceva decât jazz. La mijlocul secolului XIX se aflau aici peste 500 de cafenele. Rolul lor a fost decisiv din punct de vedere economic pentru că ele au ajutat New Orleans-ul să-și revină după nimicitorul Război Civil. Orașul a împărțit supremația comerțului cu cafea cu New York-ul. Este imposibil după ce ai „văzut” atâta mâncare să nu ți se facă foame. Peste 1700 de restaurante susțin orașul iar în fața acestei oferte te trezești într-un mare impas: unde să intri. În localuri istorice ca Antoine’s, fondat în 1840, cu meniuri clasice și creole, la Galatoire’s care de la 1905 este localul elitei orașului ce servește specialități creole, la Cochon, cu bucătărie cajun sau la Drago’s, bine publicitat în tot orașul, recomandat pentru fripturile de vită fără egal? După ce te-ai așezat realizezi că ai plonjat în necunoscut oricât de mare gurmand european te-ai considera. Meniul te trage de mânecă cu specialități precum: Gumbo, o supă-tocană pe bază de orez, okra, pui, fructe de mare și cârnat picant; crawfish, un crustaceu mai mic; Muffuleta, adică mai pe înțelesul nostru un sandviș cu brânză, măsline, șuncă și ulei de măsline ascunse într-o chiflă albă rotundă;\r\n\r\nPo-Boy - un sandviș consistent cu fruncte de mare prăjite, friptură de vită, șuncă, servit într-o baghetă franțuzească; dirty rice - orez cu pui, măruntaie, ardei verde, ceapă și salată acoperite generos cu condimente locale. ~tiți regula, cu cât sunt mai roșii sunt mai iuți. Sunt atât de bune că-ți ia gura foc iar stingerea trebuie făcută rapid cu o bere locală. Merge și cu apă, dar tot trebuie să chemați „pompierii berari locali” de la Abita sau Dixie de exemplu. ~i cockailurile sunt la putere. Puteți încerca un Sazerac, inventat pe la 1830 de către Antoine Peychaud’s, un farmacist local. Acesta a amestecat într-o cupă pentru ouă numită „coquetier” ingredientele celebrului produs - coniac Sazerac, un bitter preparat de el, un strop de apă și un vârf de linguriță de zahăr. Generoși, localnicii l-au adoptat pe loc și au numit băutura cocktail căci pronunțau incorect cuvântul franțuzesc. Și așa a rămas. Iar dacă nu vă descurcați cu denumirile din meniuri folosiți metoda clasică. Comadați din preparatele făcute la grătar. Carne, pește, fructe de mare! Noi vă recomandăm o friptură Rib Eye! Restul rămâne la mâna maestrului bucătar.\r\n\r\nPentru câteva zile vom pleca spre destinații necunoscute.

Meniul te trage de mânecă cu specialități precum: Gumbo, o supă-tocană pe bază de orez, okra, pui, fructe de mare și cârnat picant; crawfish, un crustaceu mai mic; Muffuleta, adică mai pe înțelesul nostru un sandviș cu brânză, măsline, șuncă și ulei de măsline ascunse într-o chiflă albă rotundă;\r\n\r\nPo-Boy - un sandviș consistent cu fruncte de mare prăjite, friptură de vită, șuncă, servit într-o baghetă franțuzească; dirty rice - orez cu pui, măruntaie, ardei verde, ceapă și salată acoperite generos cu condimente locale. ~tiți regula, cu cât sunt mai roșii sunt mai iuți. Sunt atât de bune că-ți ia gura foc iar stingerea trebuie făcută rapid cu o bere locală. Merge și cu apă, dar tot trebuie să chemați „pompierii berari locali” de la Abita sau Dixie de exemplu. ~i cockailurile sunt la putere. Puteți încerca un Sazerac, inventat pe la 1830 de către Antoine Peychaud’s, un farmacist local. Acesta a amestecat într-o cupă pentru ouă numită „coquetier” ingredientele celebrului produs - coniac Sazerac, un bitter preparat de el, un strop de apă și un vârf de linguriță de zahăr. Generoși, localnicii l-au adoptat pe loc și au numit băutura cocktail căci pronunțau incorect cuvântul franțuzesc. Și așa a rămas. Iar dacă nu vă descurcați cu denumirile din meniuri folosiți metoda clasică. Comadați din preparatele făcute la grătar. Carne, pește, fructe de mare! Noi vă recomandăm o friptură Rib Eye! Restul rămâne la mâna maestrului bucătar.\r\n\r\nPentru câteva zile vom pleca spre destinații necunoscute.

Astfel sclavii secolului XIX care se strângeau în Piaţa Congo în fiecare duminică, ziua lor liberă, îşi căutau cântecele şi dansau bambula sau calinda, au devenit strămoşii jazzului. Trompeta este istrumentul rege al acestui gen muzical.\r\n

Dar formaţia credidată ca fiind ”inventatoarea” acestui magnific gen muzical este ”The Red Hot Peppers” care în 1902 propunea acest nou sunet muzical. Începutul secolului XX era foarte intens muzical la New Orleans. Se cânta peste tot, în baruri, restaurante, străzi dar mai ales în Storyville Jazz Salon amplasat în cartierul cu acelaşi nume. Era de fapt un loc al moravurilor libere, stabilimentele în care se produceau muzicienii fiind denumite ”bordellos” sau mai pudic ”săli de sport”. Popularitatea jazz-ului este în creştere, iar ca o picanterie muzicienii cântau după un paravan aşa că performanţele sportivilor erau ferite de ochii curioşi ai artiştilor. Şi muzica a curs decenii prin instrumentele unor nume sonore care au dat strălucire genului şi s-au afirmat aici: unicul Louis Armstrong şi trompeta sa fermecată, Oscar ”Papa” Celestin şi clasica deja compoziţie din 1911 ”Down by the Riverside”, Papa Jack’ Dixieland Jazz Band care a fost prima formaţie ce a înregistrat primul single de vinil în 1917, şi impresionanta Mahalia Jasckson (gospel). Dar 1917 aduce cu sine nu doar participarea americanilor la primul război mondial ci şi închiderea cartierului ”cu credinţă albastră” şi magnificile sale orchestre. Muzicienii se risipesc, îşi caută alte drumuri în întreaga Americă. Cei mai mulţi se îndreaptă spre Chicago şi New York şi da, pe nave, cântând pentru pasagerii vremii, una dintre ele fiind celebra navă cu zbaturi Natchez care face călătorii turistice pe Mississippi. Muzica e la fel de copleşitoare şi azi pentru că fascinaţia nu are vârstă iar dansul, ne-am convins în două din croazierele noastre, continuă să fie, aici la New Orleans, centrul de atracţie pentru tinerii îndrăgostiţi de o lume ce merită descoperită în permanenţă. Celebra Piaţă Congo face parte azi din Parcul Armstrong, complet refăcut după ravagiile uraganului Katrina, dominat de statuia muzicianului.
\r\nŞlagărele lumii au rămas coloana vertebrală a comunităţii şi astăzi. Bourbon Street, Basin Street şi localurile lor celebre te magnetizează cu sunetul lor. Atenţie aici se cântă live iar trupele de tineri care ocupă intersecţiile acestor străzi odată cu venirea după-amiezii sunt barometre sensibile care măsoară interesul şi aprecierile... financiare ale trecătorilor. Intâmplător sau nu am constatat că muzica face casă bună cu banii. Într-un raid prin Muzeul Monetăriei (să nu uitaţi că New Orleans a fost Capitala statului) ne-am oprit mai mult timp la etaj unde am fost furaţi de parfumul muzicii. Da, căci clădirea construită în 1835, găzduieşte pe lângă expoziţia permanentă de numismatică şi batere a monezii şi un etaj dedicat istoriei Jazzului în Louisiana. Regele Armstrong este şi aici la putere. A fost un copil sărac, crescut de o familie de evrei. În adolescenţă a mai dat-o şi-n bară făcând şi puţină închisoare, dar în fotografiile ce ne-au fost păstrate descoperim că a fost un mare îndrăgostit de oameni şi de... gastronomie. Se vede după figura lui care radiază de bucurie. Surprizele curg lanţ. Găseşti expuse nu doar fotografii vintage şi poveştile muzicii zydeco, două dintre trompetele cele ale lui Louis (prima şi ultima), o colecţie de instrumente muzicale aparţinând unor muzicieni celebri. Câteva bucăţi dintr-o vioară la fel de celebră, au fost salvate din mâlul adus de uraganul Katrina. N-a mai fost recondiţionată, ci păstrată aşa ca un simbol al luptei muzicii cu stihiile naturii.
\r\nJurnaliştii acreditaţi la IPW New Orleans au avut ocazia de a compara cât de puternică este istoria dar şi prezentul acestei muzici. La Centrul de presă postul de radio WWOZ a invitat şi a transmis live din studioul special amenajat în mijlocul nostru miniconcerte ale unor artişti contemporani preocupaţi de păstrarea bijuteriilor muzicale din filonul jazzului. Organizatorii au dorit să ne ofere de asemenea o zi specială la Teatrul Orpheum. Pe scena acestei clădiri istorice construită în 1918 evoluau trupe de vodevil şi operetă. Grav afectat de uragan teatrul a fost refăcut fiind transformat în sediul Orchestrei Filarmonice a statului Louisiana.

Primele care alegorice au defilat în 1935 și au fost create de grupul Elks. Fiecare grupare care se respectă, deține prin tradiție 14 care alegorice bogat ornamentate.

\r\nDupă șase luni de implementare proiectul “Ecoturismul transfrontalier în regiunea Dunării” a devenit operațional. Autoritatea Națională pentru Turism, în parteneriat cu Asociația pentru Dezvoltarea Turismului de Sănătate și Social, au consolidat acest demers. Proiectul a fost finanțat prin „START - Danube Region Project Fund\" al UE pentru Regiunea Dunării și a fost gestionat de Municipalitatea din Viena. În agenda programului au fost incluse mai multe activități printre care întâlniri tehnice de lucru, la Vidin (Bulgaria), scrierea a 3 proiecte transfrontaliere pentru dezvoltarea ecoturismului de-a lungul cursului inferior al Dunării, și organizarea unei conferințe de presă, la București. Specialiștii au concluzonat că abordarea durabilă sau ecologică a turismului este soluția adecvată pentru acest domeniu. În plus, abordarea din perspectiva transfrontalieră a Dunării poate asigura o piață eficientă pentru dezvoltarea turismului verde. \r\nCIRCA 13,1 MILIOANE DE PERSOANE

\r\nDupă șase luni de implementare proiectul “Ecoturismul transfrontalier în regiunea Dunării” a devenit operațional. Autoritatea Națională pentru Turism, în parteneriat cu Asociația pentru Dezvoltarea Turismului de Sănătate și Social, au consolidat acest demers. Proiectul a fost finanțat prin „START - Danube Region Project Fund\" al UE pentru Regiunea Dunării și a fost gestionat de Municipalitatea din Viena. În agenda programului au fost incluse mai multe activități printre care întâlniri tehnice de lucru, la Vidin (Bulgaria), scrierea a 3 proiecte transfrontaliere pentru dezvoltarea ecoturismului de-a lungul cursului inferior al Dunării, și organizarea unei conferințe de presă, la București. Specialiștii au concluzonat că abordarea durabilă sau ecologică a turismului este soluția adecvată pentru acest domeniu. În plus, abordarea din perspectiva transfrontalieră a Dunării poate asigura o piață eficientă pentru dezvoltarea turismului verde. \r\nCIRCA 13,1 MILIOANE DE PERSOANE

\r\nBLUE AIR - 3 NOI RUTE \r\n\r\nBlue Air îşi continuă dezvoltarea pe plan intern cât şi european prin lansarea a trei rute noi din Cluj-Napoca către Bucureşti (3 iunie), Liverpool (3 iunie) şi Dublin (4 iunie). Odată cu acestea Clujul devine al şaselea aeroport din România pe care operează Blue Air. Dacă iniţial sectorul intern între Bucureşti şi Cluj-Napoca se va opera cu patru frecvenţe săptămânale, începând cu 30 octombrie 2016, Blue Air va mări frecvenţa zborurilor pe această rută, la 2 zboruri zilnice. Cele două rute internaţionale către Liverpool şi Dublin se vor opera cu două frecvenţe săptămânale, în zilele de luni şi vineri, şi respectiv, marţi şi sâmbătă. Gheorghe Răcaru, Director General Blue Air: ”Deschiderea celor trei rute face parte din strategia de dezvoltare a companiei. Activitatea noastră în România a întregistrat o creştere semnificativă. Asta se datorează și faptului că în această vară flota noastră a crescut, ajungând la 28 de aeronave Boeing 737”.\r\n\r\nFLIX BUS S-A LANSAT PE RUTELE AUTOHTONE\r\n\r\nCompania germană Flix Bus, cel mai mare transportator european cu autocarul, a intrat pe piața românească.

Cu el am pornit într-o amiază aurie, în pasul calului, la plimbare pe Drumul de Centură. Nou asfaltat el încojoară depresiunea mică a Borsecului și are câteva puncte de belvedere. Din răcorea pădurii de brazi am ieşit în poiana largă, plină de vile noi, din zona pârtiei de ski (e o investiţie recentă, cu trei piste). Căpiţele de fân, iarba unduioasă şi liniştea spaţiului deschis te îmbie să te opreşti şi să te aşezi la soare pe o pătură. Am continuat însă pe Drumul de Centură, în mare parte este drum cu sens unic, către ceea ce localnicii numesc „Baia de soare”.

Vara venea şi timpul uita să mai treacă. Dacă aţi ajuns deja la Borsec vă aduceţi acum aminte sentimentul... Dacă nu aţi ajuns încă în regatul reginei uitate citiţi în continuare şi pregătiți-vă bagajele! Scriam în numărul trecut că o săptămână nu-i de ajuns pentru a explora minunăţiile rezervaţiei naturale „Scaunul Rotund”. Apoi aş spune că încă pe atât a nevoie pentru a cunoaşte puţin oamenii calmi dar plini de încredere, care au ales să trăiască în Borsec şi au investit aici nu numai bani, timp, pasiune ci şi nemăsurată răbdare.\r\n\r\n\r\nInvitaţie la o Baie de soare\r\n\r\nRobert şi Viorica deţin pensiunea „Nostalgia”. Cu drag de natură şi de frumos şi-au ridicat alături o casă din lemn iar restaurantul pe care îl deschid este şi el clădit din bârne aurii, lucrate cu dragoste. Au ales să se întoarcă acasă cu speranţa în viitorul staţiunii ce oferă atâtea daruri sau, cum ar spune unii mai practici, care are un excelent potenţial turistic.\r\nRobert este un împătimit de Borsec şi, printre altele, oferă turiştilor tururi cu căruţa prin staţiune. Cu el am pornit într-o amiază aurie, în pasul calului, la plimbare pe Drumul de Centură. Nou asfaltat el încojoară depresiunea mică a Borsecului și are câteva puncte de belvedere. Din răcorea pădurii de brazi am ieşit în poiana largă, plină de vile noi, din zona pârtiei de ski (e o investiţie recentă, cu trei piste). Căpiţele de fân, iarba unduioasă şi liniştea spaţiului deschis te îmbie să te opreşti şi să te aşezi la soare pe o pătură. Am continuat însă pe Drumul de Centură, în mare parte este drum cu sens unic, către ceea ce localnicii numesc „Baia de soare”. Cu o vedere perfectă asupra staţiunii aici este o platformă din lemn, amenajată cu chaize-longues tot din lemn. Oricine poate veni, parca maşina şi sta la soare. Din drum pănă la „Baia de soare” e făcută o cărăruie pe care o străbaţi în două minute.

Deși inițial se anunțaseră 400 de jurnaliști și editori de turism din întreaga lume, numărul lor a urcat la 500. IPW nu este un târg de turism clasic. Nu este nici o bursă de vânzări. Ci, mai degrabă, o combinație a celor două forme cu o mare reuniune B2B. Totul este programat cu minuțiozitate, banii vin pe bandă rulantă în bugetele companiilor turistice ce îi așteaptă ca pe pâinea caldă. Pe parcursul celor 5 zile s-au desfășurat peste 105.000 de întîlniri de afaceri în cele 1352 de standuri. Conform companiei de consultanță - Rockport Analitics - toate acestea vor avea un impact direct în următorii trei ani de circa 4,7 miliarde de dolari asupra turismului din Statele Unite. O scurtă selecție a tendințelor: Anul acesta a crescut numărul delegaților prezenți la IPW, din China, Taiwan, Coreea de Sud, Chile și Columbia. Datorită politicilor de viză, care se acordă acum pe 10 ani, China a ajuns să ocupe locul 3 ca piață furnizoare de turiști pentru americani. Pentru New Orleans se prevede o creștere cu un milion de turiști în următorii ani ce va avea un impact financiar de 1,7 miliarde de dolari.\n\n\n\n„IPW este un eveniment minunat care atrage lumea în SUA. Suntem hotărâți să primim și mai mulți turiști în țara noastră și să facilităm călătoriile spre Statele Unite. Aceasta este cea mai bună modalitate de a fi deschiși și conectați cu întreaga lume” – declara Roger Dow, președintele US Travel Association. Un alt lider carismatic, bun orator și actor, Stephen Perry, președinte și CEO New Orleans Convention & Visitors Bureau adăuga: „Orașul nostru este o destinație de vis pentru vizitatorii de pe întreg globul. Călătorii dornici de experiențe inedite, cei care caută să se deconecteze de la rutina zilnică se vor întâlni cu o cultură profundă, organică în arte, gastronomie, muzică, fără pereche în America.

\nDupă șase luni de implementare proiectul “Ecoturismul transfrontalier în regiunea Dunării” a devenit operațional. Autoritatea Națională pentru Turism, în parteneriat cu Asociația pentru Dezvoltarea Turismului de Sănătate și Social, au consolidat acest demers. Proiectul a fost finanțat prin „START - Danube Region Project Fund\" al UE pentru Regiunea Dunării și a fost gestionat de Municipalitatea din Viena. În agenda programului au fost incluse mai multe activități printre care întâlniri tehnice de lucru, la Vidin (Bulgaria), scrierea a 3 proiecte transfrontaliere pentru dezvoltarea ecoturismului de-a lungul cursului inferior al Dunării, și organizarea unei conferințe de presă, la București. Specialiștii au concluzonat că abordarea durabilă sau ecologică a turismului este soluția adecvată pentru acest domeniu. În plus, abordarea din perspectiva transfrontalieră a Dunării poate asigura o piață eficientă pentru dezvoltarea turismului verde. \nCIRCA 13,1 MILIOANE DE PERSOANE

\r\nDupă șase luni de implementare proiectul “Ecoturismul transfrontalier în regiunea Dunării” a devenit operațional. Autoritatea Națională pentru Turism, în parteneriat cu Asociația pentru Dezvoltarea Turismului de Sănătate și Social, au consolidat acest demers. Proiectul a fost finanțat prin „START - Danube Region Project Fund\" al UE pentru Regiunea Dunării și a fost gestionat de Municipalitatea din Viena. În agenda programului au fost incluse mai multe activități printre care întâlniri tehnice de lucru, la Vidin (Bulgaria), scrierea a 3 proiecte transfrontaliere pentru dezvoltarea ecoturismului de-a lungul cursului inferior al Dunării, și organizarea unei conferințe de presă, la București. Specialiștii au concluzonat că abordarea durabilă sau ecologică a turismului este soluția adecvată pentru acest domeniu. În plus, abordarea din perspectiva transfrontalieră a Dunării poate asigura o piață eficientă pentru dezvoltarea turismului verde. \r\nCIRCA 13,1 MILIOANE DE PERSOANE
\r\n...au vizitat în 2015, muzeele și colecțiile publice din România. Peste o jumatate de milion, au efectuat vizite gratuite în „Noaptea Muzeelor”, potrivit datelor publicate Institutul Național de Statistică (INS). Rețeaua muzeelor și colecțiilor publice a cuprins în anul 2015 un număr de 431 unități de bază și a fost formată din: 390 de muzee, 6 monumente, 21 de grădini botanice, zoologice, acvarii și 14 rezervații naturale. Numărul bunurilor culturale și naturale, la finele lui 2015, a fost de aproape 15 milioane.
\r\nBLUE AIR - 3 NOI RUTE\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nBlue Air îşi continuă dezvoltarea pe plan intern cât şi european prin lansarea a trei rute noi din Cluj-Napoca către Bucureşti (3 iunie), Liverpool (3 iunie) şi Dublin (4 iunie). Odată cu acestea Clujul devine al şaselea aeroport din România pe care operează Blue Air. Dacă iniţial sectorul intern între Bucureşti şi Cluj-Napoca se va opera cu patru frecvenţe săptămânale, începând cu 30 octombrie 2016, Blue Air va mări frecvenţa zborurilor pe această rută, la 2 zboruri zilnice. Cele două rute internaţionale către Liverpool şi Dublin se vor opera cu două frecvenţe săptămânale, în zilele de luni şi vineri, şi respectiv, marţi şi sâmbătă. Gheorghe Răcaru, Director General Blue Air: ”Deschiderea celor trei rute face parte din strategia de dezvoltare a companiei. Activitatea noastră în România a întregistrat o creştere semnificativă. Asta se datorează și faptului că în această vară flota noastră a crescut, ajungând la 28 de aeronave Boeing 737”.\r\n\r\nFLIX BUS S-A LANSAT PE RUTELE AUTOHTONE\r\n\r\nCompania germană Flix Bus, cel mai mare transportator european cu autocarul, a intrat pe piața românească.

El a venit pentru prima dată în Louisiana în Lake St. Charles în 1882, la bordul unui yacht regal. Momentul marchează începutul acestui eveniment devenit ulterior celebrul Carnaval, din sud-vestul statului.\n\n\n\nDar cele două Războaie Mondiale au trimis într-un con de umbră această tradiție. Primul semn al revenirii ei a fost Balul Mardi Gras din 1964. Apoi o mână de întreprinzători au creat pe bază de voluntariat, în 1985, Mardi Gras Imperial Calcasieu Inc. Dedicat acestui eveniment. De aici până la Mardi Gras Museum drumul a fost parcurs în 1998. Acesta se află găzduit la etajul întâi al Central School Arts & Humanities Center. Colecțiile sunt ordonate pe un hol lung și 6 camere tematice: istorie, design, legenda celei de-a 12-a nopți și mai ales fabuloasele costume de paradă prezentate de-a lungul deceniilor. La fel de important este, ne precizează David J. Faulk, curatorul Muzeului –, că în Lake St. Charles activează azi circa 50 de „krewes”, grupuri de inițiativă bazate pe voluntariat și afinități comune. Un fel de cluburi, asemănătoare școlilor de samba braziliene. Mai puțin cunoscut în Europa decât Carnavalurile de la Rio ori Veneția, Mardi Gras este cel puțin la fel de celebru prin tradiție și valoarea costumelor prezentate la paradă. Istoria lui începe prin 1700. Inițial au fost doar luxoase baluri private organizate de comunitățile „krewes”. Aceste grupuri au contribuit în timp la formarea școlilor Comus, Momus, Proteus, Bachus etc. În 1870 a fost ales pentru prima dată un cuplu care să întruchipeze pe regele și regina Carnavalului. Din 1968, gruparea „Bachus” a început să invite artiști celebri pentru a-l întruchipa pe zeul lor. Au îmbrăcat hainele regale Bob Hope, Charlton Heston, Kirk Douglas etc. Asta a însemnat foarte mult pentru promovarea și dezvoltarea circulației turistice în Louisiana. Primele care alegorice au defilat în 1935 și au fost create de grupul Elks. Fiecare grupare care se respectă, deține prin tradiție 14 care alegorice bogat ornamentate. În timpul defilării din acestea sunt aruncate spre deliciul spectatorilor, sute de kilograme de mărgele, coliere, monede ușoarere producând dubloni. Micile păpuși au intrat și ele în acest scenariu începând din anul 1881. În timpul festivalului este la putere King Cake-ul, un produs delicios de patiserie ornate obligatoriu cu o figurină reprezentându-l pe Isus copil. Culorile predominante ale costumelor sunt violetul – reprezentând justiția –, verdele – simbolizând credința –, șI auriul, semnul puterii. Am reținut de la David că toate costumele și carele alegorice prezentate sunt produse pe banii membrilor „Krewes”.\n\n\n\nAșa ca o idee pentru a crea un singur costum e nevoie de circa... 10.000 de dolari. În fiecare an sceptrul puterii este acordat de către grupul Rex celui mai de seamă cetățean al New Orleans-ului. Pentru a contura amploarea evenimentului vom mai aminti că toate costumele, carele alegorice, artefactele aferente sunt păstrate în peste 20 de hale ale unui Muzeu-de posit ce alcătuiesc Mardi Gras World. Blaine Kern, proprietarul complexului este denumit „Mr. Mardi Gras” și datorită faptului că în aceste ateliere imense se construiesc o mare parte din carele alegorice. Tot aici sunt restaurate în permanență costume și alte obiecte de paradă. Câteva dintre acestea am avut ocazia să le vedem într-un mini-carnaval organizat special pentru participanții la IPW 2016 de către US Travel Association, în parteneriat cu administrația locală și New Orleans Convention & Visitors Bureau. A fost o seară de poveste în interiorul Superdomului. Cea mai mare arenă sportivă din regiune, a fost refăcută după trecerea uraganului Katrina, cu susținerea financiară a grupului Mercedes Benz.

Astfel sclavii secolului XIX care se strângeau în Piaţa Congo în fiecare duminică, ziua lor liberă, îşi căutau cântecele şi dansau bambula sau calinda, au devenit strămoşii jazzului. Trompeta este istrumentul rege al acestui gen muzical.\n\n
\nTimpuriu prima orchestră apărând prin anii 1890. Dar formaţia credidată ca fiind ”inventatoarea” acestui magnific gen muzical este ”The Red Hot Peppers” care în 1902 propunea acest nou sunet muzical. Începutul secolului XX era foarte intens muzical la New Orleans. Se cânta peste tot, în baruri, restaurante, străzi dar mai ales în Storyville Jazz Salon amplasat în cartierul cu acelaşi nume. Era de fapt un loc al moravurilor libere, stabilimentele în care se produceau muzicienii fiind denumite ”bordellos” sau mai pudic ”săli de sport”. Popularitatea jazz-ului este în creştere, iar ca o picanterie muzicienii cântau după un paravan aşa că performanţele sportivilor erau ferite de ochii curioşi ai artiştilor. Şi muzica a curs decenii prin instrumentele unor nume sonore care au dat strălucire genului şi s-au afirmat aici: unicul Louis Armstrong şi trompeta sa fermecată, Oscar ”Papa” Celestin şi clasica deja compoziţie din 1911 ”Down by the Riverside”, Papa Jack’ Dixieland Jazz Band care a fost prima formaţie ce a înregistrat primul single de vinil în 1917, şi impresionanta Mahalia Jasckson (gospel). Dar 1917 aduce cu sine nu doar participarea americanilor la primul război mondial ci şi închiderea cartierului ”cu credinţă albastră” şi magnificile sale orchestre. Muzicienii se risipesc, îşi caută alte drumuri în întreaga Americă. Cei mai mulţi se îndreaptă spre Chicago şi New York şi da, pe nave, cântând pentru pasagerii vremii, una dintre ele fiind celebra navă cu zbaturi Natchez care face călătorii turistice pe Mississippi. Muzica e la fel de copleşitoare şi azi pentru că fascinaţia nu are vârstă iar dansul, ne-am convins în două din croazierele noastre, continuă să fie, aici la New Orleans, centrul de atracţie pentru tinerii îndrăgostiţi de o lume ce merită descoperită în permanenţă. Celebra Piaţă Congo face parte azi din Parcul Armstrong, complet refăcut după ravagiile uraganului Katrina, dominat de statuia muzicianului.
\nŞlagărele lumii au rămas coloana vertebrală a comunităţii şi astăzi. Bourbon Street, Basin Street şi localurile lor celebre te magnetizează cu sunetul lor. Atenţie aici se cântă live iar trupele de tineri care ocupă intersecţiile acestor străzi odată cu venirea după-amiezii sunt barometre sensibile care măsoară interesul şi aprecierile... financiare ale trecătorilor. Intâmplător sau nu am constatat că muzica face casă bună cu banii. Într-un raid prin Muzeul Monetăriei (să nu uitaţi că New Orleans a fost Capitala statului) ne-am oprit mai mult timp la etaj unde am fost furaţi de parfumul muzicii. Da, căci clădirea construită în 1835, găzduieşte pe lângă expoziţia permanentă de numismatică şi batere a monezii şi un etaj dedicat istoriei Jazzului în Louisiana. Regele Armstrong este şi aici la putere. A fost un copil sărac, crescut de o familie de evrei. În adolescenţă a mai dat-o şi-n bară făcând şi puţină închisoare, dar în fotografiile ce ne-au fost păstrate descoperim că a fost un mare îndrăgostit de oameni şi de... gastronomie. Se vede după figura lui care radiază de bucurie. Surprizele curg lanţ. Găseşti expuse nu doar fotografii vintage şi poveştile muzicii zydeco, două dintre trompetele cele ale lui Louis (prima şi ultima), o colecţie de instrumente muzicale aparţinând unor muzicieni celebri. Câteva bucăţi dintr-o vioară la fel de celebră, au fost salvate din mâlul adus de uraganul Katrina. N-a mai fost recondiţionată, ci păstrată aşa ca un simbol al luptei muzicii cu stihiile naturii.
\nJurnaliştii acreditaţi la IPW New Orleans au avut ocazia de a compara cât de puternică este istoria dar şi prezentul acestei muzici. La Centrul de presă postul de radio WWOZ a invitat şi a transmis live din studioul special amenajat în mijlocul nostru miniconcerte ale unor artişti contemporani preocupaţi de păstrarea bijuteriilor muzicale din filonul jazzului.

O rețetă pe bază de pâine, lapte, ouă, whiskey, unt și desigur secretul fiecărui patiser. Doar străbătând cartierele istorice ale New Orleansului îți poți face o imagine asupra bogăției și diversității culinare.\n\nObligatoriu trebuie să frecventați celebra French Market, locul unde se terminau străzile Cartierului Francez, partea sa cea mai săracă și muncitoare, denumită nu întâmplător în trecut „locul bărbaților dispăruți”. Mulți dintre cei care se aventurau noaptea în baruri și bordeluri erau jefuiți și chiar omorâți. După ce străbați sectorul tarabelor pline de mărfuri pentru turiși ajungi în celebra „Flea Market”. E raiul gurmanzilor și am simțit asta din plin. Istoria locului începe pe la 1800. De atunci în fiecare zi produsele proaspete și cele preparate – zarzavaturi, pește proaspăt, pui, condimente din belșug –, strigă după tine. Și de lemn să fii și tot nu reziști să guști din preparatele făcute în fața ochilor tăi. Unul dintre cele mai palpitante locuri, celebru și reconfortant de prin 1862, este „Cafe du Monde”. Afacerea unor francezi administrată azi de americani.\n\nE în stilul istoriei locale. De atunci aici se servesc fără întrerupere cafea cu... cicoare și lapte și faimoasele Beignets, gogoși pripite înecate în zahăr vanilat. Ca să găsești o masă liberă trebuie să te înarmezi cu răbdare. Toate națiile de turiști roiesc aici să consume dar și să-și facă fotografii memorabile. {sta-i turismul și este chiar plăcut pentru că din stradă, pe lângă valul de căldură – 40 de grade la umbră e parfum de tei –, vine spre tine și muzica, ce altceva decât jazz. La mijlocul secolului XIX se aflau aici peste 500 de cafenele. Rolul lor a fost decisiv din punct de vedere economic pentru că ele au ajutat New Orleans-ul să-și revină după nimicitorul Război Civil. Orașul a împărțit supremația comerțului cu cafea cu New York-ul. Este imposibil după ce ai „văzut” atâta mâncare să nu ți se facă foame. Peste 1700 de restaurante susțin orașul iar în fața acestei oferte te trezești într-un mare impas: unde să intri. În localuri istorice ca Antoine’s, fondat în 1840, cu meniuri clasice și creole, la Galatoire’s care de la 1905 este localul elitei orașului ce servește specialități creole, la Cochon, cu bucătărie cajun sau la Drago’s, bine publicitat în tot orașul, recomandat pentru fripturile de vită fără egal? După ce te-ai așezat realizezi că ai plonjat în necunoscut oricât de mare gurmand european te-ai considera. Meniul te trage de mânecă cu specialități precum: Gumbo, o supă-tocană pe bază de orez, okra, pui, fructe de mare și cârnat picant; crawfish, un crustaceu mai mic; Muffuleta, adică mai pe înțelesul nostru un sandviș cu brânză, măsline, șuncă și ulei de măsline ascunse într-o chiflă albă rotundă;\n\nPo-Boy - un sandviș consistent cu fruncte de mare prăjite, friptură de vită, șuncă, servit într-o baghetă franțuzească; dirty rice - orez cu pui, măruntaie, ardei verde, ceapă și salată acoperite generos cu condimente locale. ~tiți regula, cu cât sunt mai roșii sunt mai iuți. Sunt atât de bune că-ți ia gura foc iar stingerea trebuie făcută rapid cu o bere locală. Merge și cu apă, dar tot trebuie să chemați „pompierii berari locali” de la Abita sau Dixie de exemplu. ~i cockailurile sunt la putere. Puteți încerca un Sazerac, inventat pe la 1830 de către Antoine Peychaud’s, un farmacist local. Acesta a amestecat într-o cupă pentru ouă numită „coquetier” ingredientele celebrului produs - coniac Sazerac, un bitter preparat de el, un strop de apă și un vârf de linguriță de zahăr. Generoși, localnicii l-au adoptat pe loc și au numit băutura cocktail căci pronunțau incorect cuvântul franțuzesc. Și așa a rămas. Iar dacă nu vă descurcați cu denumirile din meniuri folosiți metoda clasică. Comadați din preparatele făcute la grătar. Carne, pește, fructe de mare! Noi vă recomandăm o friptură Rib Eye! Restul rămâne la mâna maestrului bucătar.\n\nPentru câteva zile vom pleca spre destinații necunoscute.

De atunci aici se servesc fără întrerupere cafea cu... cicoare și lapte și faimoasele Beignets, gogoși pripite înecate în zahăr vanilat. Ca să găsești o masă liberă trebuie să te înarmezi cu răbdare. Toate națiile de turiști roiesc aici să consume dar și să-și facă fotografii memorabile. {sta-i turismul și este chiar plăcut pentru că din stradă, pe lângă valul de căldură – 40 de grade la umbră e parfum de tei –, vine spre tine și muzica, ce altceva decât jazz. La mijlocul secolului XIX se aflau aici peste 500 de cafenele. Rolul lor a fost decisiv din punct de vedere economic pentru că ele au ajutat New Orleans-ul să-și revină după nimicitorul Război Civil. Orașul a împărțit supremația comerțului cu cafea cu New York-ul. Este imposibil după ce ai „văzut” atâta mâncare să nu ți se facă foame. Peste 1700 de restaurante susțin orașul iar în fața acestei oferte te trezești într-un mare impas: unde să intri. În localuri istorice ca Antoine’s, fondat în 1840, cu meniuri clasice și creole, la Galatoire’s care de la 1905 este localul elitei orașului ce servește specialități creole, la Cochon, cu bucătărie cajun sau la Drago’s, bine publicitat în tot orașul, recomandat pentru fripturile de vită fără egal? După ce te-ai așezat realizezi că ai plonjat în necunoscut oricât de mare gurmand european te-ai considera. Meniul te trage de mânecă cu specialități precum: Gumbo, o supă-tocană pe bază de orez, okra, pui, fructe de mare și cârnat picant; crawfish, un crustaceu mai mic; Muffuleta, adică mai pe înțelesul nostru un sandviș cu brânză, măsline, șuncă și ulei de măsline ascunse într-o chiflă albă rotundă;\r\n\r\nPo-Boy - un sandviș consistent cu fruncte de mare prăjite, friptură de vită, șuncă, servit într-o baghetă franțuzească; dirty rice - orez cu pui, măruntaie, ardei verde, ceapă și salată acoperite generos cu condimente locale. ~tiți regula, cu cât sunt mai roșii sunt mai iuți. Sunt atât de bune că-ți ia gura foc iar stingerea trebuie făcută rapid cu o bere locală. Merge și cu apă, dar tot trebuie să chemați „pompierii berari locali” de la Abita sau Dixie de exemplu. ~i cockailurile sunt la putere. Puteți încerca un Sazerac, inventat pe la 1830 de către Antoine Peychaud’s, un farmacist local. Acesta a amestecat într-o cupă pentru ouă numită „coquetier” ingredientele celebrului produs - coniac Sazerac, un bitter preparat de el, un strop de apă și un vârf de linguriță de zahăr. Generoși, localnicii l-au adoptat pe loc și au numit băutura cocktail căci pronunțau incorect cuvântul franțuzesc. Și așa a rămas. Iar dacă nu vă descurcați cu denumirile din meniuri folosiți metoda clasică. Comadați din preparatele făcute la grătar. Carne, pește, fructe de mare! Noi vă recomandăm o friptură Rib Eye! Restul rămâne la mâna maestrului bucătar.\r\n\r\nPentru câteva zile vom pleca spre destinații necunoscute.

\r\n\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_3965\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"225\"] Marian Constantinescu[/caption]\r\nAu turiștii români un apetit de a cheltui bani cu găleata la sfârșitul săptămânilor estivale de nu s-a văzut nicăieri în lume. Că o fac, e opțiunea lor liberă și consimțită, dar că platesc bani grei pentru a se înghesui pe autostrăzi sau șosele naționale cu zecile de mii în același timp, pentru a ajunge la munte, la mare, asta chiar seamănă cu o mișcare masochistă de weekend. Care dorește cu orice preț să sufere, să transpire, să se îmbolnăvească de nervi, să se enerveze etc. Culmea, știu acest lucru. Să fie oare sindromul cozilor moștenite de la regimul comunist? Ei aș! În mașini, majoritatea turiștilor de weekend sunt tineri, care n-au avut cum să fie iradiați, pentru că pe atunci nici nu se născuseră sau erau prunci. Stau în ambuteiaje, la cozi pe șosele, pe poduri pentru taxe de trecere, pentru că așa e moda, așa e trendy, lipiți bară la bară de-ți vine să iei la palme oglinda retrovizoare. Există și un bonus: înbulzeala de pe șosele, pachetele de țigări golite fără număr și cantitatea de nervi emanată de țevile de eșapament. Masochismul de weekend!\r\n\r\n
Au turiștii români un apetit extraordinar nu numai de a-și risipi resursele financiare ci și de a-și toca cu talent timpul. ~i asta înseamnă tot o groază de bani. Îmi relata un angajat de la o benzinărie că foarte mulți oameni pleacă pe litoral sâmbăta dimineața și se întorc seara, după care duminică o iau de la capăt. Nu se pune la socoteală că drumul ar fi mai ieftin decât cazarea, degrabă ce din discuții reiese că sparg cel puțin 1.000 de euro în două zile prin cluburi, restaurante, pe plaje. Asta în condițiile în care cu suma echivalentă ar putea lua un pachet de vacanță de o săptămnă cu demipensiune, pentru două persoane.
\r\nO replică ar trebui să vină din partea agențiilor de turism care au uitat rolul de consilier, de informare a turistului. Ele ar putea să-i orienteze pe cei dispuși să trăiască alte experiențe de weekend, mai frumoase, mai relaxante, mai ieftine. Dar câți dintre angajații lor și-au mai scos în ultimii 15 ani, capul din calculator? Cum să vândă ceva despre care încă n-au aflat că există. Avem destinații fabuloase spre care duc șosele aerisite, locuri cu parcări amenajate, cu oameni doritori să te servească. V-am trezit interesul? Încercați, în funcție de unde locuiți, un tur de weekend la Târgoviște, care arată din ce în ce mai bine, la Curtea de Argeș, cu o mănăstire regală unică și cu extensia la Valea cu Pești, În Țara Hațegului, cu fabuloasa lume apusă a dinozaurilor, ori la Râșnov unde s-a format o lume avidă de turism personalizat. Noi le-am testat. Și nu suntem singurii. Vacanțe memorabile vă dorim!

Nimic nu e lipsit de culoare, totul are un ritm care învinge rutina şi o transformă în spectacol aici în sudul Louisianei.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nÎn orice loc te-ai așeza la masă, orice preparat este desprins dintr-o poveste a sclavilor negri, este cajun sau creole, sau toate la un loc. Ea datează din secolul XVII și își trage seva din spațiul marilor plantații. Atunci când marea foamete și seceta s-au abătut asupra acestor proprietăți sclavii au început să cultive orezul aliment cu care au fost salvați atât ei cât și stăpânii lor. Cum era de așteptat acesta a devenit în scurt timp un aliment de bază pe care gastronomia locală l-a ridicat la rang de... rege culinar.\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5191,5190,5189,5188\"]\r\n\r\nJambalaya, celebra hrană cu orez și mărun taie de pui este nelipsită din meniurile zilnice. Așa a apărut ca o necesitate de a face față hrănirii cât mai multor persoane iar astăzi s-a transformat într-o delicatesă...populară a Sudului. După câte trebuie să vă aduceți aminte există și o melodie cu acest nume. Populațiile cajun și creole au adus cu ele această ancestrală moștenire. Astfel au să apărut mâncărurile condimentate pe bază de ardei iute.\r\n\r\nIntră în „scenă” celebrul sos „Tabascos” produs doar în insula Avery din 1800 și devenit faimos în întreaga lume. Există nu mai puțin de 40 de variante de sosuri picante. Din acest amal gam de tradiții culinare apare și cel mai special dulce: celebrul Bread pudding. O rețetă pe bază de pâine, lapte, ouă, whiskey, unt și desigur secretul fiecărui patiser. Doar străbătând cartierele istorice ale New Orleansului îți poți face o imagine asupra bogăției și diversității culinare.\r\n\r\nObligatoriu trebuie să frecventați celebra French Market, locul unde se terminau străzile Cartierului Francez, partea sa cea mai săracă și muncitoare, denumită nu întâmplător în trecut „locul bărbaților dispăruți”. Mulți dintre cei care se aventurau noaptea în baruri și bordeluri erau jefuiți și chiar omorâți. După ce străbați sectorul tarabelor pline de mărfuri pentru turiși ajungi în celebra „Flea Market”. E raiul gurmanzilor și am simțit asta din plin. Istoria locului începe pe la 1800. De atunci în fiecare zi produsele proaspete și cele preparate – zarzavaturi, pește proaspăt, pui, condimente din belșug –, strigă după tine. Și de lemn să fii și tot nu reziști să guști din preparatele făcute în fața ochilor tăi. Unul dintre cele mai palpitante locuri, celebru și reconfortant de prin 1862, este „Cafe du Monde”. Afacerea unor francezi administrată azi de americani.\r\n\r\nE în stilul istoriei locale. De atunci aici se servesc fără întrerupere cafea cu... cicoare și lapte și faimoasele Beignets, gogoși pripite înecate în zahăr vanilat. Ca să găsești o masă liberă trebuie să te înarmezi cu răbdare. Toate națiile de turiști roiesc aici să consume dar și să-și facă fotografii memorabile. {sta-i turismul și este chiar plăcut pentru că din stradă, pe lângă valul de căldură – 40 de grade la umbră e parfum de tei –, vine spre tine și muzica, ce altceva decât jazz. La mijlocul secolului XIX se aflau aici peste 500 de cafenele. Rolul lor a fost decisiv din punct de vedere economic pentru că ele au ajutat New Orleans-ul să-și revină după nimicitorul Război Civil. Orașul a împărțit supremația comerțului cu cafea cu New York-ul. Este imposibil după ce ai „văzut” atâta mâncare să nu ți se facă foame. Peste 1700 de restaurante susțin orașul iar în fața acestei oferte te trezești într-un mare impas: unde să intri. În localuri istorice ca Antoine’s, fondat în 1840, cu meniuri clasice și creole, la Galatoire’s care de la 1905 este localul elitei orașului ce servește specialități creole, la Cochon, cu bucătărie cajun sau la Drago’s, bine publicitat în tot orașul, recomandat pentru fripturile de vită fără egal? După ce te-ai așezat realizezi că ai plonjat în necunoscut oricât de mare gurmand european te-ai considera. Meniul te trage de mânecă cu specialități precum: Gumbo, o supă-tocană pe bază de orez, okra, pui, fructe de mare și cârnat picant; crawfish, un crustaceu mai mic; Muffuleta, adică mai pe înțelesul nostru un sandviș cu brânză, măsline, șuncă și ulei de măsline ascunse într-o chiflă albă rotundă;\r\n\r\nPo-Boy - un sandviș consistent cu fruncte de mare prăjite, friptură de vită, șuncă, servit într-o baghetă franțuzească; dirty rice - orez cu pui, măruntaie, ardei verde, ceapă și salată acoperite generos cu condimente locale. ~tiți regula, cu cât sunt mai roșii sunt mai iuți. Sunt atât de bune că-ți ia gura foc iar stingerea trebuie făcută rapid cu o bere locală. Merge și cu apă, dar tot trebuie să chemați „pompierii berari locali” de la Abita sau Dixie de exemplu. ~i cockailurile sunt la putere. Puteți încerca un Sazerac, inventat pe la 1830 de către Antoine Peychaud’s, un farmacist local. Acesta a amestecat într-o cupă pentru ouă numită „coquetier” ingredientele celebrului produs - coniac Sazerac, un bitter preparat de el, un strop de apă și un vârf de linguriță de zahăr. Generoși, localnicii l-au adoptat pe loc și au numit băutura cocktail căci pronunțau incorect cuvântul franțuzesc. Și așa a rămas. Iar dacă nu vă descurcați cu denumirile din meniuri folosiți metoda clasică. Comadați din preparatele făcute la grătar. Carne, pește, fructe de mare! Noi vă recomandăm o friptură Rib Eye! Restul rămâne la mâna maestrului bucătar.\r\n\r\nPentru câteva zile vom pleca spre destinații necunoscute.

\r\nBIERTAN: 9 din 22
\r\nSatul medieval Biertan (Județul Sibiu) din România a fost postat pe locul 9 într-un top de 22 de „destinații ireale din lume ce trebuie vizitate într-un an sabatic”. Clasamentul a fost realizat de către editorii site-ului revistei americane Cosmopolitan. Ei au descris astfel localitatea :„Biertan arată cu adevărat ca un oraș dintr-un film Disney, iar dacă vreți să vedeți și mai multe scene de basm, mergeți să descoperiți biserica fortificată din localitate”. Biertan, atestată documentar pentru prima dată în 1224, face parte dintre primele așezări germane de sași din Transilvania, iar din 1397 este atestat ca cetate. Aici se regăsește și azi o îmbinare a stilului gotic cu cel al Renașterii. Monumentul este apărat de trei ziduri de incintă cu turnuri și bastioane medievale. Satul care mai are 1000 de locuitori a devenit cunoscut turiștilor contemporani datorită cetății fortificate dar și a unei legende. Cetatea, care adăpostește o biserică bine conservată poartă amprenta meșterilor din Viena și Nurnberg, iar amvonul sculptat în piatră la 1500 este opera meșterului Ulrich din Brașov. La rândul ei legenda spune că: soții care se certau și voiau să divorțeze erau închiși în cetate cu o singură lingură, o furculiță, o masă, un pat, un scaun și erau nevoiți astfel să se suporte. Rezultatul? Timp de 300 de ani ar fi existat doar un singur divorț în satul Biertan.
\r\nÎn topul Cosmopolitan, Biertan se află alături de locuri ca Insulele Seychelles, Santorini, Phi Phi Islands (Thailanda), Bora Bora, Burj Khalifa (Dubai), cîmpurile de lavandă din Provance (Franța), cascada Angel (Venezuela), Parcul Național Zhangjiajie (China), stâncile „Cei 12 Apostoli” (Australia), Cinque Terre (Italia), Salar de Uyuni (Bolivia), Palau (Micronezia) etc.

\r\nBIERTAN: 9 din 22
\r\nSatul medieval Biertan (Județul Sibiu) din România a fost postat pe locul 9 într-un top de 22 de „destinații ireale din lume ce trebuie vizitate într-un an sabatic”. Clasamentul a fost realizat de către editorii site-ului revistei americane Cosmopolitan. Ei au descris astfel localitatea :„Biertan arată cu adevărat ca un oraș dintr-un film Disney, iar dacă vreți să vedeți și mai multe scene de basm, mergeți să descoperiți biserica fortificată din localitate”. Biertan, atestată documentar pentru prima dată în 1224, face parte dintre primele așezări germane de sași din Transilvania, iar din 1397 este atestat ca cetate. Aici se regăsește și azi o îmbinare a stilului gotic cu cel al Renașterii. Monumentul este apărat de trei ziduri de incintă cu turnuri și bastioane medievale. Satul care mai are 1000 de locuitori a devenit cunoscut turiștilor contemporani datorită cetății fortificate dar și a unei legende. Cetatea, care adăpostește o biserică bine conservată poartă amprenta meșterilor din Viena și Nurnberg, iar amvonul sculptat în piatră la 1500 este opera meșterului Ulrich din Brașov. La rândul ei legenda spune că: soții care se certau și voiau să divorțeze erau închiși în cetate cu o singură lingură, o furculiță, o masă, un pat, un scaun și erau nevoiți astfel să se suporte. Rezultatul? Timp de 300 de ani ar fi existat doar un singur divorț în satul Biertan.
\r\nÎn topul Cosmopolitan, Biertan se află alături de locuri ca Insulele Seychelles, Santorini, Phi Phi Islands (Thailanda), Bora Bora, Burj Khalifa (Dubai), cîmpurile de lavandă din Provance (Franța), cascada Angel (Venezuela), Parcul Național Zhangjiajie (China), stâncile „Cei 12 Apostoli” (Australia), Cinque Terre (Italia), Salar de Uyuni (Bolivia), Palau (Micronezia) etc.

This is how the American editors described the place: „Biertan seriously looks like a town from a Disney movie, but if you are looking for even more storybook scenes, go check out the historical (and incredibly beautiful) fortified church in town.”\r\n\r\nDating back to the year 1224 Biertan is one of the first saxon settlements in Transilvania. The citadel combines the gothic style with Renaissance traces. Its core is formed by a church, in the line of those in Vienna and Nurnberg , with an amvo sculpted in stone in 1500 by Ulrich from Brașov. The church is surrounded by three defence walls, showcasing impressive towers and medieval bastions. The village itself counts with about 1000 visitors.\r\nIn the article published by Cosmopolitan, Biertan is listed next to places such as Seychelles Islands, Santorini, Phi Phi Islands (Thailand), Bora Bora, Burj Khalifa (Dubai), the lavender fields of Provance (France), Angel waterfall (Venezuela), The National Park Zhangjiajie (China), The 12 Apostols rocks (Australia), Cinque Terre (Italy), Salar de Uyuni (Bolivia), Palau (Micronezia) etc.\r\n\r\nCLUJ NAPOCA: City Plaza becomes DoubleTree\r\n\r\nThe Hilton international chain ”captures” a new property for the DoubleTree by Hilton family.

Templul lui Giove - un magnet
\r\nNici nu îți imaginezi când ajungi în Sicilia că vei avea parte de ”Valea Templelor”. Complexul muzeal de la Selinunte (sau Valea pătrunjelului sălbatic) se vede de la distanță iar siluetele elegante ale diferitelor temple se ridică spre cer din pământul cărămiziu-roșcat. Pentru ca să intri măcar într-o parte dintre ele îți trebuie cel puțin o jumătate de zi pentru a străbate calm aleile pietruite ale orașului antic și a contempla volume arhitectonice conservate generos în timp. Sigur, restauratorii au muncit cu devotament pentru a păstra mari fragmente ale civilizațiilor greacă și romană. De oriunde ai începe vizita vei fi atras ca de un magnet de Templul lui Giove (Templul lui Zeus Olimpianul) cel mai impunător din acest ansamblu monumental. Specialiștii îl consideră a fi cel mai mare templu doric al lumii antice. Minunatele sale fresce erau susținute de ”atlanți” - oamenii-coloană. De altfel unul dintre ei se odihnește într-o vale acoperită de pătrunjel verde. E vorba doar de o copie decorativă, originalul fiind protejat și conservat în spațiile Muzeului regional de arhelologie găzduit de Mănăstirea San Nicola. Templele păstrate până azi, mai mult sau mai puțin întregi, au povești proprii. Cel al lui Jupiter este neterminat, al lui Hercules este în vecinătate, din cel al Junonei susținut de 35 de coloane au rămas doar 25. Restul clădirii pare aproape intact. Și Altarul de sacrificiu e purtător de legende. Cele 4 coloane antice marchează stinghere parcă, locul unde se înălța Templul Dioscurilor (celebrii frați Castor și Polux). Însă imaginea care ”punctează” în obiectivele aparatelor de fotografiat este cea oferită de Templul Concordiei. El domină de pe vârful unui mic deal, un spațiu natural, iar cele 34 de coloane parcă susțin linia orizontului. Toate par a semăna cu o proclamație a nemuririi.\r\n

Valea Fermecată - Patrimoniu UNESCO
\r\nPe această Via Sacra se află și Templul Demetrei, mama Persefonei, răpită de Hades și dusă în lumea subpământeană, de dincolo. Fiecare zonă a Complexului monumental de la Agrigento te poartă prin istorie dar și printre vestigiile lăsate de greci, arabi, cartaginezi, romani etc. Dacă vă mai rămâne o rezervă de timp merită să vă îndreptați și spre Grădina de la Kolimbetra, zonă protejată de Fondul de Mediu Italian. Aleile bine organizate sunt umbrite de livezile de citrice, sălcii, plopi, tamarini etc. Ele sunt irigate după tehnicile utilizate de către vechile populațiile arabe.
\r\nValea Templelor, denumită și Valea Frumoasă ori Valea Fermecată, este recomandată drept unul dintre cele mai fascinante itinerarii arheologice din Sicilia. Monumentele de aici au fost edificate pe ruinele cunoscutei colonii grecești de la Akragos. Tot complexul face parte din patrimoniul UNESCO. Orașul contemporan este departe de gloria istorică, fiind dominat de blocuri cu linii muncitorești, de o populație îmbătrânită care ține cu dinții de vechile tradiții și întâlnirile de după-amiază din piața centrală. Privit din altă perspectivă Agrigento pare monumental, fiind cocoțat pe stânci și înconjurat de prăpăstii și conectat la civilizație de lungi viaducte, poduri și autostrăzi. Construcția unora dintre ele, asta ca să se știe că nu suntem singurii din lume, s-a oprit la jumătate chiar deasupra unor prăpăstii. Altele stau suspendate și neconectate deoarece măsurătorile se pare au fost greșite cu câțiva metri. Gurile rele spun că ar fi mâna mafiei. Iar noi ce să mai zicem: fiecare cu mafioții lui din... drumuri și poduri.
\r\nPirandello și 24.000 de documente
\r\nDar din acest loc se trage renumitul filosof antic Empedocle. Tot aici a văzut lumina zilei celebrul dramaturg italian Luigi Pirandello. În urmă cu câțiva ani autoritățile locale s-au gândit să diversifice oferta culturală și turistică a orașului prin crearea unui nou punct de atracție - Casa Memorială Pirandello. Merită să vedeți muzeul amplasat pe o colină a orașului într-o casă cu două etaje ce trimite la arhitectura secolului XVIII. Curatorii instituției s-au aplecat cu mult devotament și aplicație pentru a ”repatria” în incinta casei familiei tot ceea ce s-a putut recupera și valorifica din moștenirea pirandeliană: manuscrise, scrisori, cărți, fotografii, acte fiscale, obiecte personale, mobilier. Parcurgând sălile descoperi o parte dintre cele mai relevante documente. Două dintre obiecte, cu o valoare inestimabilă sunt Marele Colan al Academiei Regale Italiene, ce i-a fost decernat în 1929 cu ocazia acordării titlului de Academician, respectiv un vas antic grecesc, foarte vechi ”Kelebe” ce datează din perioada 470-460 înainte de Cristos. Moștenit de la tatăl său în 1924 acesta a devenit urnă funerară, cenușa scriitorului fiind adăpostită în el conform dorinței acestuia. Monumentul simbolic al lui Pirandello - creat în 1961 de sculptorul Marino Mazzacurati -, e amenajat sub pinul singuratic din apropierea casei. Un spațiu foarte frecventat al Muzeului îl constituie Biblioteca dramaturgului. Ea reunește 24.000 de documente originale din toate domeniile artei: teatru, film, reviste de specialitate, scrisori ale unor personalități culturale, fotografii cu portrete feminine ce trimit spre povești de dragoste, dar și o sală de conferințe modern echipată, unde se organizează diverse evenimente culturale.
\r\nDin anul 1952 casa natală, strada și parcul în care este amplasată au fost declarate parte a Patrimoniului național și au intrat în posesia Regiunii Sicilia. După ce străbați acest spațiu cultural simți nevoia să recitești ”Căruța cu paiațe” sau ”Să-i îmbrăcăm pe cei goi !”. Prea multe șanse de a vedea aceste piese jucate pe scenele teatrelor noastre nu se întrevăd la orizont. Deși Pirandello era un favorit al regizorilor și actorilor români înainte de ‘89.

\r\n\r\nCe a descoperit Demargne!\r\n\r\nAșa că turiști devotați Eladei și mari fani ai lui Zeus ne-am îndreptat și noi spre Psyhro Cave, peșteră cunoscută și sub numele de Diktaion Antron, aflată în nord-estul Muntelui Sarakinos, la o altitudine de 1025 de metri. Pînă acolo am străbătut un drum care șerpuiește printre sate și mori de vânt amplasate până pe platoul Lasithi. În mai multe locuri s-au construit mici taverne, semn că business-ul merge, încojurate de mori de vânt ce asigură o parte din energia electrică a localurilor. O cafea, un popas fotografic. Timp în care poți lenevi sau ”digitaliza” câteva dintre dintre cele aproximativ 10.000 de mori de vânt, multe nefuncționale azi. Ghidul nu scapă ocazia să ne spună că în anumite zone ele vor fi refăcute cu ajutorul unor finanțări europene. Ca multe altele și această poveste este un fascinant amestec de adevăr istoric și mitologie. Să punem în mișcare adevărul: peștera a fost descoperită întâmplător de către localnici prin 1883. După aceea au fost atrași în valuri arheologi faimoși ai vremii. Săpăturile făcute au scos la lumină pe lângă artefacte cu o valoare culturală deosebită și povestea peșterii căci în interiorul său s-a descoperit un altar pentru ofrande. Printre obiecte se numără statuete și vase de cult datând din anii 1800 înainte de Cristos. În 1897 arheologul francez Joseph Demargne semnala existența unei diademe de aur, a cărei descriere o face în însemnările sale, dar despre care în prezent nu se mai știe nimic. Probabil, undeva, ea dă valoare excepțională unei colecții private. Și dacă locul este închinat venerării lui Zeus, să facem un popas și în mitologie. Rhea fugind din calea lui Kronos, care-și devora urmașii s-ar fi ascuns în această peșteră unde l-a născut pe Zeus. Ea i-a dat să înghită un bolovan lui Kronos, astfel că trupul lui Zeus a fost salvat. Mica zeitate a fost hrănită de către Amaltheia (după unii nimfă, după alții... capră). Alte variante: ar fi fi fost crescut cu miere de albine și carne de porumbițe. Se spune de asemenea că apa freatică de aici provine din lacrimile lui Zeus care ar fi plâns foarte mult la naștere.\r\n\r\n[gallery ids=\"5287,5288,5289,5290,5292,5293\"]\r\n\r\nServicii de taxi-măgăruș\r\n\r\nFrumos nu! Are cu ce se hrăni și turistul! Un lucru este sigur: pruncul a crescut și a devenit acel Zeus ce, printre alte isprăvi a răpit-o pe frumoasa Europa din Phoenicia și a ascuns-o în peștera Diktaion Antron. Și mitul curge mai departe... Scrierile antice consemnează că și celebrul profet Epimenides a locuit câțiva ani în acest loc unde au fost plăsmuite o mare parte din viziunile sale. Dincolo de povești trebuie să știți că locul are o magie aparte și datorită faptului că accesul este destul de facil. Chiar și pentru turiștii care frecventează muntele mai puțin. Varianta pedestră e puțin obositoare. Aveți la dispoziție două trasee cu lungimi și grade de dificultate diferite. Pe potecile în serpentină aveți numeroase locuri din care puteți admira o panoramă extraordinară. Pentru cei mai comozi este pus la dispoziție un serviciu de taxi-măgăruș sau taxi-asin. Cărăușii, duc în spate o parte din ”gloriile” sistemului All-inclusive, care a prins în majoritatea hotelurilor grecești, dedicate familiilor. Chiar dacă a fost destul de criticat, cum că afectează gastronomia și tradițiile culinare locale. Muți, harnici, neemițători de bonuri fiscale asinii ei își duc la bun sfârșit cărăușia transportând zilnic sute de turiști străini. Contra a 5 sau 10 euro, dus sau dus-întors, depinde cum ai negociat. Noi am preferat mersul pe jos, pentru că face tenul frumos. Spre bucuria măgărușilor dar insatisfacția stăpânilor.\r\n\r\nStalactite și jocuri de lumini\r\n\r\nDe sus lumea se vede altfel. Ești răsplătit din plin. Accesul în peșteră se face pe un traseu organizat și bine semnalizat. La intrare alături de bilet ți se oferă un pliant gratuit după care te poți orienta. Atenție primele seturi de scări pe care cobori în sala mare, sunt umede și alunecoase. Pășiți cu atenție. Lată de 35 de metri cu o adâncime de 16 ea deține două incinte. Prima e bine aerisită și luminată natural. În a doua a fost descoperit altarul pentru ofrande și artefactele amintite. Al doilea set de scări te conduce spre adâncurile peșterii unde se află cinci alveole ale căror coloane de stalactite și stalagmite crează un spațiu de vis. Jocurile de lumini concepute de curatorii și tehnicienii ce valorifică Peștera lui Zeus contribuie din plin la promovarea locului cu aură mitică. Desigur, spațiile peșterii sunt pline de locuitorii naturii - de la liliacul mediteraneean cu cu urechi mari până la cuiburi și stoluri de păsări curajoase care au descoperit acest loc luminos și răcoros. Și apropo de asta, când ați ales să vizitați acest obiectiv turistic chiar dacă afară sunt 40 de grade, nu uitați să vă luați o haină mai groasă, un hanorac eventual și încălțăminte corespunzătoare. O lanternă nu strică. Traseul interior este și umed și întunecos. Poate sfaturile noastre par exagerate, dar am avut surpriza să vedem tinere... turiste urcând pe pantofi cui de 8-10 centimetri.

Varianta pedestră e puțin obositoare. Aveți la dispoziție două trasee cu lungimi și grade de dificultate diferite. Pe potecile în serpentină aveți numeroase locuri din care puteți admira o panoramă extraordinară. Pentru cei mai comozi este pus la dispoziție un serviciu de taxi-măgăruș sau taxi-asin. Cărăușii, duc în spate o parte din ”gloriile” sistemului All-inclusive, care a prins în majoritatea hotelurilor grecești, dedicate familiilor. Chiar dacă a fost destul de criticat, cum că afectează gastronomia și tradițiile culinare locale. Muți, harnici, neemițători de bonuri fiscale asinii ei își duc la bun sfârșit cărăușia transportând zilnic sute de turiști străini. Contra a 5 sau 10 euro, dus sau dus-întors, depinde cum ai negociat. Noi am preferat mersul pe jos, pentru că face tenul frumos. Spre bucuria măgărușilor dar insatisfacția stăpânilor.\r\n\r\nStalactite și jocuri de lumini\r\n\r\nDe sus lumea se vede altfel. Ești răsplătit din plin. Accesul în peșteră se face pe un traseu organizat și bine semnalizat. La intrare alături de bilet ți se oferă un pliant gratuit după care te poți orienta. Atenție primele seturi de scări pe care cobori în sala mare, sunt umede și alunecoase. Pășiți cu atenție. Lată de 35 de metri cu o adâncime de 16 ea deține două incinte. Prima e bine aerisită și luminată natural. În a doua a fost descoperit altarul pentru ofrande și artefactele amintite. Al doilea set de scări te conduce spre adâncurile peșterii unde se află cinci alveole ale căror coloane de stalactite și stalagmite crează un spațiu de vis. Jocurile de lumini concepute de curatorii și tehnicienii ce valorifică Peștera lui Zeus contribuie din plin la promovarea locului cu aură mitică. Desigur, spațiile peșterii sunt pline de locuitorii naturii - de la liliacul mediteraneean cu cu urechi mari până la cuiburi și stoluri de păsări curajoase care au descoperit acest loc luminos și răcoros. Și apropo de asta, când ați ales să vizitați acest obiectiv turistic chiar dacă afară sunt 40 de grade, nu uitați să vă luați o haină mai groasă, un hanorac eventual și încălțăminte corespunzătoare. O lanternă nu strică. Traseul interior este și umed și întunecos. Poate sfaturile noastre par exagerate, dar am avut surpriza să vedem tinere... turiste urcând pe pantofi cui de 8-10 centimetri. O fi vreun nou trend în travel și nu am aflat noi.

\r\n\r\nÎn urmă cu câțiva ani de zile a început să-l fascineze ințiativele lui Ivan Patzaichin lansate de pe rampa Asociației ce poartă numele ”Ivan Patzaichin - Mila 23”. Ivan a bătut fierul până l-a înroșit forțând uși, dezrădăcinând mentalități care se fixaseră în cuvintele ”Nu se poate!”. Canotca, noua sa ambarcațiuni, a devenit subiectul unui festival iar mișcarea Turism lent a crescut într-atât încât Mihai Giurgiuveanu a lăsat pentru o vreme uscatul să trăiască fără el aventurându-se și începând să navigheze printre ideile lui Patzaichin. În aproape doi ani a devenit cunoscut astfel că poți da de el fie întrebând la Asociație fie la proprietarii unor pensiuni, hoteluri din Tulcea dar și din localitățile apropiate. Ți se spune că dacă dorești să trăiești o experiență aparte merită să pornești ghidat de acest tânăr ce deține o ambarcațiune foarte specială. Unde mai pui că, deocamdată este singura de acest fel care străbate Delta. Halmyris este o barcă tradițională construită în întregime din lemn. E un proiect special căruia i-a dat viață Paul Vasiliu, ultimul marangoz al Deltei Dunării. Ea a fost concepută în atelierele școală ale Asociației ”Ivan Patzaichin”, care caută cu disperare tineri ucenici. A fost singura ambarcațiune comandată în 2015. Nu este una de mari dimensiuni. Are o capacitate lejeră de circa 10 persoane. Ce o face specială pentru turism? Faptul că ghidul este și căpitan de navă, iar căpitanul de navă joacă rolul de ”one man show” servind pe parcursul scurtei croaziere - circa 4 ore -, răcoritoare, bere, cafea etc. Mai mult, face la ora prânzului și oficiile de gazdă pricepută în ale preparatelor pescărești.

Cu litere mari. Secretarul\r\ngeneral al Organizaţiei Mondiale a Turismului (OMT),\r\ncare urmează linia de simpatie a antecedesorului său\r\nFrancesco Frangialli, a pledat vinovat de dragoste de\r\nRomânia şi în vara acestui an, la Bucureşti. A făcut-o de la pupitrul Conferinţei internaţionale „Managementul Integrat al Calităţii pentru Destinaţiile Turistice: Cheia pentru competitivitate”. A fost cel mai im -\r\nportant eveniment internaţional de turism organizat în\r\nRomânia în 2016. Participarea de la Palatul Parlamen -\r\ntului a reflectat-o pe deplin. A meritat să fii acolo? Sigur\r\ncă da! De câte ori pe an au oamenii de afaceri din tu -\r\nris mul românesc ocazia să asculte un orator şi un diplo -\r\nmat subţire ca Taleb Rifai. Secretul în turism este să faci\r\npe toată lumea din jurul tău să se simtă bine. De apro-\r\nfundat.\r\n\r\nPune jetonul pe...Transilvania şi vampire\r\n\r\nTaleb Rifai crede că România a devenit o poveste\r\nde succes în turism şi merită mai mult, întrucât are atracţii\r\ncare nu se găsesc în altă parte în lume. Oamenii trec\r\ngraniţele iar această mişcare reprezintă o adevarată\r\nschimbare în viaţa noastră. La acest lucru a contribuit şi\r\nrevoluţia IT. Prin social-media, oamenii au înţeles că sunt\r\nmai importanţi decât guvernele şi decât companiile pen -\r\ntru care muncesc. În 2015 au existat peste 2 miliarde de\r\ncălători în întreaga lume. Turismul a contribuit cu 10% la\r\nPIB-ul global, generând 1,4 trilioane de dolari. Turiştii\r\ncheltuiesc zilnic în lume 3,5 miliarde de dolari. „Turismul\r\neste unul dintre cele mai eficiente instrumente diploma -\r\ntice. România ar trebui să se concentreze pe miturile şi\r\nlegendele locale pentru a se promova. Ar trebui să pa -\r\nrieze pe Transilvania şi legenda lui Dracula. Trebuie să\r\nvă axaţi pe particularităţile specifice, care ar putea la\r\nfel de bine să fie considerate un brand de ţară: „Miturile\r\nşi legendele ţării care trebuie păstrate” şi mă refer la\r\npoveştile cu Dracula, Vlad Ţepeş, vampiri şi alte istorii\r\ndin zona transilvaneană” – spune Rifai.\r\n\r\nDincolo de gardul poeziei\r\n\r\nDupă ce anul 2015 a închis fermoarul la sinteza\r\ncifre lor a existat un optimism care suntem convinşi că se\r\nva exprima şi în 2016. Anul precedent, turismul a con -\r\ntribuit cu 5,1% la PIB României. Ceea ce ne plasează\r\npe locul 154 în lume din 184 de ţări, în urma Albaniei,\r\nBulgariei, Ungariei, Cehiei şi Slovaciei, potrivit unui ra -\r\nport al Consiliului Mondial al Turismului (WTTC). Într-un\r\nnumăr trecut noi am publicat alte cifre, dar această sur -\r\nsă globală „ajustează” datele statistice naţionale.\r\nWTTC anticipează o creştere de 5,4% a contribuţiei\r\ntotale a turismului la PIB în acest an, urmată de o rată\r\nmedie de creştere de 3,8% pe an până în 2024, la 50,8 miliarde lei.\r\nPe de altă parte din datele statistice ale\r\nRomâniei postate pe site-ul UE aflăm că ţara noastră a în casat apro ximativ 3miliarde euro din turism. Unde ne situăm? Răspunsul îl dau tot cifrele: nu\r\nare rost să vorbim de primele 7 super - puteri turistice mondiale – SUA, Franţa, China, Germania, Anglia, Spa nia şi Italia. Finlanda înca -\r\nsează 7 miliarde de euro din turism, Irlanda 8 miliarde,\r\nPortugalia şi Danemarca câte 12, Grecia 14, Norvegia\r\n18, iar odată cu Suedia trecem de plafonul de 21 de\r\nmiliarde.\r\n\r\nAvem mare dar şi mic\r\n\r\nCum e posibil ca o ţară care are 291.000 de locuri\r\nde cazare grupate în circa 5.344 de unităţi să încaseze\r\ndoar 3 miliarde de euro? Asta în comparaţie cu altele\r\nce deţin cam aceeaşi configuraţie de primire dar au\r\nîncasări de două sau chiar trei ori mai mari! Unii ar\r\nspune că se lucrează mult la negru. Nu a fost dovedit\r\nacest aspect şi nici măcar dimensiunile lui. Eurostat pre -\r\ncizează foarte clar – aveţi capacitate de cazare mare,\r\ndar grad de ocupare mic. La această categorie ne situ -\r\năm undeva pe ultimele locuri în rândul celor 28 de state\r\nmembre ale UE. În 2015 am avut 6.821 de unităţi de ca zare, cu 691 mai multe decât în 2014. Un lucru foarte bun. Numai că, în ceea ce priveşte gradul de ocupare, el a fost de numai 28,7%. Puţin peste un sfert din capacitate a fost ocupată.\r\n\r\nMerită să fim optimişti\r\n\r\nContextul turistic european şi mondial ne este favo rabil. Astfel turis mul românesc ar putea înregistra o creştere\r\nde cel puţin 18%, ceea ce ar putea consacra 2016 drept cel mai bun an\r\nde după 1989. „Sunt optimistă şi cred că putem să ajun gem la o creştere în\r\n2016 de minimum 18%” – preciza cu ocazia conferinţei de la Bucureşti, Anca Pavel-Nedea, preşedintele Autorităţii Naţionale pentru Turism. Un alt studio convergent, care a analizat turismul de business –\r\nmotorul dezvoltării travelului românesc –, aduce evaluări la fel de optimiste. Potrivit companiei KeysFin, în următorii zece ani, sumele generate de\r\nturismul de business ar tre bui să ajungă la 13,6 miliarde de lei pe\r\nan, iar cele atrase de turismul de agrement ar trebui să\r\nurce şi ele la aproape 17 miliarde de lei anual. 2016 ar putea fi cel mai bun an pentru turismul românesc din ultimii 10 ani.

Interesant a fost modul de gândire al noilor conduceri-vechi ale unor asociaţii şi patronate din turism. În momentul în care Genius Travel a anunţat că nu mai poate onora vacanţele a circa 50-60 de turişti (lipseau din vistierie circa 50.000 de euro), Asociaţia Naţională a Agenţiilor de Turism, care a fost informată anterior de situaţie, a sărit ca arsă. Prima măsură de delimitare de un membru al său a fost să-l excludă din organizaţie. Aşa-i trebuie, bine i-a făcut veţi spune! Genius Travel a fost pusă la zid şi ciuruită cu generozitate. Bravo! Oare nu exista şi altă soluţie?\r\n\r\nSe pare că da! Pentru că a fost folosită pentru o altă agenţie – Mareea, care figurează în Top 10 naţional, din punct de vedere al cifrei de afaceri. După ce a practicat o strategie de non-comunicare, surpriză, şi-a anunţat intrarea în insolvenţă.

Interesant a fost modul de gândire al noilor conduceri-vechi ale unor asociaţii şi patronate din turism. În momentul în care Genius Travel a anunţat că nu mai poate onora vacanţele a circa 50-60 de turişti (lipseau din vistierie circa 50.000 de euro), Asociaţia Naţională a Agenţiilor de Turism, care a fost informată anterior de situaţie, a sărit ca arsă. Prima măsură de delimitare de un membru al său a fost să-l excludă din organizaţie. Aşa-i trebuie, bine i-a făcut veţi spune! Genius Travel a fost pusă la zid şi ciuruită cu generozitate. Bravo!

Ea deţine conexiuni internaţionale şi încă de la început şi-a propus să coaguleze interesele unor\r\nspitale, clinici, furnizori de servicii medicale, agenţii de turism ori de asigurări.\r\n\r\nDupă cum se poate observa avem în faţă produse cu componente complexe, de calitate superioară dar promovate în România la preţuri atractive pentru turiştii străini. Cum ajung aceste informaţii în străinătate? Mai întâi prin canalelemedicale specializate – workshopuri, reuniuni, prezentări de produse, congrese. Apoi Asociaţia Română de Turism Medical şi-a propus să editeze un Ghid (Romanian Medical Tourism Guide) prin care sunt făcute cunoscute pacienţilor străini clinicile şi spitalele private din marile oraşe din România, tratamentele de care beneficiază, precum şi atracţiile turistice, capacităţile de cazare şi activităţi specifice zonei alese. În acest scop există o concentrare a interesului pe construirea unor programe turistice care să diversifice posibilităţile de relaxare, refacere şi petrecere a timpului liber pe care-l are călătorul străin venit în ţara noastră pentru un tratament sau o inter venţie chirurgicală. În fapt vorbim de un segment de nişă foarte profitabil şi cu o valoare adăugată foarte ridicată.\r\n\r\nRitm de creştere - 15-20%\r\n\r\nCât de profitabil? Răzvan Andrei Nacea, directorul general al Seytour, companie specializată în turism medical a anunţat că pacienţii străini vin în România pentru turism dentar, investigaţii şi tratamente oftalmologice, chirurgie estetică şi plastică. Atât timp cât vor continua să plătească cu aproximativ 40% mai puţin din preţurile din ţările de origine, vor continua să abordeze piaţa românească.\r\n\r\nPrincipalii furnizori sunt Germania, Marea Britanie, Italia, Franţa şi Israel. Cheltuiala medie a unui străin pentru servicii medicale în România este între câteva sute şi circa 8.000 de euro. Seytour estimează că piaţa turismului medical din România depăşeşte 300 de milioane de euro. Ea este dominată de servicii spa si wellness. Dar există şi reversul medaliei. Şi românii se tratează în străinătate mai ales de afecţiuni majore care nu pot fi soluţionate datorită limitelor tehnologice existente în ţară.\r\n\r\nConform reprezentantului Seytour românii îşi tratează în clinicile din străinătate malformaţiile conge nitale, traumatismele rămase în urma unor accidente, cataracta, astigmatismul, diferite tipuri de cancer sau tumori. Cele mai solicitate destinaţii pe segmentul de turism medical sunt Ungaria, Turcia, Austria, Germania şi Israel. Un român cheltuieşte în străinătate pentru servicii medicale peste 5.000 de euro. Ritmul de creştere al segmentului a fost de circa 15-20% pe an, în ultimii trei ani. Există şanse clare ca acesta să se păstreze, mai apreciază Răzvan Nacea.\r\n\r\nO piaţă de circa jumătate de milion de turişti\r\n\r\nUn studiu al Insight Market Research Solutions, estima că valoarea pieţei de turism medical din România s-ar putea dubla. Ea are un potenţial ca în viitorul apropiat să depăşească 500.000 de turişti sosiţi în România în scop medical. Succesul turismului medical din România se bazează pe doi factori principali: pe de o parte, renumele medicilor de origine română în cele mai mari spitale din lume iar pe de altă parte, atractivitatea pache telor oferite. Segmentul cel mai vânat este cel al serviciilor stomatologice. Astfel, tot mai multe cabinete, în parteneriat cu agenţii de turism, au elaborat pachete specializate. La fel de optimist se arată Dr. Bogdan Vlădilă, medic specialist Stomatologie Generală care a creat\r\ncompania Dentist Holiday. Competenţele sale au fost acumulate în clinici din Franţa, Suedia, Marea Britanie, Japonia, SUA etc. „Excelenţa actului medical Dentist Holiday este atestată de numeroasele dispozitive medicale patentate la nivel european. Am adoptat o filosofie\r\ninovatoare în medicina dentară: depunem toate eforturile pentru întreţinerea danturii native precum şi pentru menţinerea implanturilor pe o perioadă cât mai îndelungată.” Cât priveşte flexibilitatea de care se bucură pacienţii, Dentist Holiday, „colaborează cu numerose cabinete din ţară şi din străinătate, în principalele oraşe din zonele turistice ale României”– a mai precizat Vlădilă.\r\n\r\nLa vremea lansării primelor pachete, Gheorghe Răcaru, directorul general al Blue Air, arăta că transportatorul român este profund implicat în dezvoltarea acestui segment. „Flexibilitatea noilor clienţi în domeniul turismului medical este asigurată şi de larga paletă de conexiuni oferite. Suntem încrezători că turismul medical are un viitor în România. El poate marca un pas înainte pentru sistemul medical naţional.”\r\n\r\nC.

Turiştii cheltuiesc zilnic în lume 3,5 miliarde de dolari. „Turismul este unul dintre cele mai eficiente instrumente diplomatice.

\nBIERTAN: 9 din 22
\nSatul medieval Biertan (Județul Sibiu) din România a fost postat pe locul 9 într-un top de 22 de „destinații ireale din lume ce trebuie vizitate într-un an sabatic”. Clasamentul a fost realizat de către editorii site-ului revistei americane Cosmopolitan. Ei au descris astfel localitatea :„Biertan arată cu adevărat ca un oraș dintr-un film Disney, iar dacă vreți să vedeți și mai multe scene de basm, mergeți să descoperiți biserica fortificată din localitate”. Biertan, atestată documentar pentru prima dată în 1224, face parte dintre primele așezări germane de sași din Transilvania, iar din 1397 este atestat ca cetate. Aici se regăsește și azi o îmbinare a stilului gotic cu cel al Renașterii. Monumentul este apărat de trei ziduri de incintă cu turnuri și bastioane medievale. Satul care mai are 1000 de locuitori a devenit cunoscut turiștilor contemporani datorită cetății fortificate dar și a unei legende. Cetatea, care adăpostește o biserică bine conservată poartă amprenta meșterilor din Viena și Nurnberg, iar amvonul sculptat în piatră la 1500 este opera meșterului Ulrich din Brașov. La rândul ei legenda spune că: soții care se certau și voiau să divorțeze erau închiși în cetate cu o singură lingură, o furculiță, o masă, un pat, un scaun și erau nevoiți astfel să se suporte. Rezultatul? Timp de 300 de ani ar fi existat doar un singur divorț în satul Biertan.
\nÎn topul Cosmopolitan, Biertan se află alături de locuri ca Insulele Seychelles, Santorini, Phi Phi Islands (Thailanda), Bora Bora, Burj Khalifa (Dubai), cîmpurile de lavandă din Provance (Franța), cascada Angel (Venezuela), Parcul Național Zhangjiajie (China), stâncile „Cei 12 Apostoli” (Australia), Cinque Terre (Italia), Salar de Uyuni (Bolivia), Palau (Micronezia) etc.
\nBREAZA: Se mișcă roata colorata\n\nDouă din cele trei trasee cicloturistice marcate în stațiunea Breaza, cu sprijinul Policolor Automotive, au devenit operaționale. Ele au fost inaugurate în cadrul proiectului ”Breaza Cicloturistică” realizat la inițiativa Centrului de informare și promovare turistică Breaza în colaborare cu Asociația Adevăraţii VeloPrieteni România. ”Suntem alături de pasionații de mobilitate. Oferim soluții pentru tot ce presupune repararea, protecția și vopsirea suprafețelor metalice. Suntem bucuroși să contribuim la marcarea efectivă a traseelor pe care turiștii și fanii pedalatului le vor parcurge mai ușor” - declară Cristian Crăiniceanu, directorul comercial al diviziei Policolor Automotive.\n\nTraseul C2, cel mai greu din cele trei - însumează aproape 40 de kilometri pe străzile și dealurile din jurul orașului. El se termină pe Islazul Mălaiele și traversează printre altele pădurea de fag de pe Dealul Lazului, aflat în nordul oraşului. Traseul C3 include clădiri frumoase cu istorie bogată dar și alei mai puțin cunoscute ale orașului Breaza. Traseul C1 va fi finalizat probabil până la sfârșitul lunii septembrie. ”Am inaugurat oficial la Breaza două din cele trei trasee cicloturistice. Apreciem sprijinul Policolor, cu atât mai mult cu cât în toată România mai avem proiecte asemănătoare doar în Urlați, Călărași și Maramureș.

Templul lui Giove - un magnet
\nNici nu îți imaginezi când ajungi în Sicilia că vei avea parte de ”Valea Templelor”. Complexul muzeal de la Selinunte (sau Valea pătrunjelului sălbatic) se vede de la distanță iar siluetele elegante ale diferitelor temple se ridică spre cer din pământul cărămiziu-roșcat. Pentru ca să intri măcar într-o parte dintre ele îți trebuie cel puțin o jumătate de zi pentru a străbate calm aleile pietruite ale orașului antic și a contempla volume arhitectonice conservate generos în timp. Sigur, restauratorii au muncit cu devotament pentru a păstra mari fragmente ale civilizațiilor greacă și romană. De oriunde ai începe vizita vei fi atras ca de un magnet de Templul lui Giove (Templul lui Zeus Olimpianul) cel mai impunător din acest ansamblu monumental. Specialiștii îl consideră a fi cel mai mare templu doric al lumii antice. Minunatele sale fresce erau susținute de ”atlanți” - oamenii-coloană. De altfel unul dintre ei se odihnește într-o vale acoperită de pătrunjel verde. E vorba doar de o copie decorativă, originalul fiind protejat și conservat în spațiile Muzeului regional de arhelologie găzduit de Mănăstirea San Nicola. Templele păstrate până azi, mai mult sau mai puțin întregi, au povești proprii. Cel al lui Jupiter este neterminat, al lui Hercules este în vecinătate, din cel al Junonei susținut de 35 de coloane au rămas doar 25. Restul clădirii pare aproape intact. Și Altarul de sacrificiu e purtător de legende. Cele 4 coloane antice marchează stinghere parcă, locul unde se înălța Templul Dioscurilor (celebrii frați Castor și Polux). Însă imaginea care ”punctează” în obiectivele aparatelor de fotografiat este cea oferită de Templul Concordiei. El domină de pe vârful unui mic deal, un spațiu natural, iar cele 34 de coloane parcă susțin linia orizontului. Toate par a semăna cu o proclamație a nemuririi.
\nValea Fermecată - Patrimoniu UNESCO
\nPe această Via Sacra se află și Templul Demetrei, mama Persefonei, răpită de Hades și dusă în lumea subpământeană, de dincolo. Fiecare zonă a Complexului monumental de la Agrigento te poartă prin istorie dar și printre vestigiile lăsate de greci, arabi, cartaginezi, romani etc. Dacă vă mai rămâne o rezervă de timp merită să vă îndreptați și spre Grădina de la Kolimbetra, zonă protejată de Fondul de Mediu Italian. Aleile bine organizate sunt umbrite de livezile de citrice, sălcii, plopi, tamarini etc. Ele sunt irigate după tehnicile utilizate de către vechile populațiile arabe.
\nValea Templelor, denumită și Valea Frumoasă ori Valea Fermecată, este recomandată drept unul dintre cele mai fascinante itinerarii arheologice din Sicilia. Monumentele de aici au fost edificate pe ruinele cunoscutei colonii grecești de la Akragos. Tot complexul face parte din patrimoniul UNESCO. Orașul contemporan este departe de gloria istorică, fiind dominat de blocuri cu linii muncitorești, de o populație îmbătrânită care ține cu dinții de vechile tradiții și întâlnirile de după-amiază din piața centrală. Privit din altă perspectivă Agrigento pare monumental, fiind cocoțat pe stânci și înconjurat de prăpăstii și conectat la civilizație de lungi viaducte, poduri și autostrăzi. Construcția unora dintre ele, asta ca să se știe că nu suntem singurii din lume, s-a oprit la jumătate chiar deasupra unor prăpăstii. Altele stau suspendate și neconectate deoarece măsurătorile se pare au fost greșite cu câțiva metri. Gurile rele spun că ar fi mâna mafiei. Iar noi ce să mai zicem: fiecare cu mafioții lui din... drumuri și poduri.
\nPirandello și 24.000 de documente
\nDar din acest loc se trage renumitul filosof antic Empedocle. Tot aici a văzut lumina zilei celebrul dramaturg italian Luigi Pirandello. În urmă cu câțiva ani autoritățile locale s-au gândit să diversifice oferta culturală și turistică a orașului prin crearea unui nou punct de atracție - Casa Memorială Pirandello. Merită să vedeți muzeul amplasat pe o colină a orașului într-o casă cu două etaje ce trimite la arhitectura secolului XVIII. Curatorii instituției s-au aplecat cu mult devotament și aplicație pentru a ”repatria” în incinta casei familiei tot ceea ce s-a putut recupera și valorifica din moștenirea pirandeliană: manuscrise, scrisori, cărți, fotografii, acte fiscale, obiecte personale, mobilier. Parcurgând sălile descoperi o parte dintre cele mai relevante documente. Două dintre obiecte, cu o valoare inestimabilă sunt Marele Colan al Academiei Regale Italiene, ce i-a fost decernat în 1929 cu ocazia acordării titlului de Academician, respectiv un vas antic grecesc, foarte vechi ”Kelebe” ce datează din perioada 470-460 înainte de Cristos. Moștenit de la tatăl său în 1924 acesta a devenit urnă funerară, cenușa scriitorului fiind adăpostită în el conform dorinței acestuia. Monumentul simbolic al lui Pirandello - creat în 1961 de sculptorul Marino Mazzacurati -, e amenajat sub pinul singuratic din apropierea casei. Un spațiu foarte frecventat al Muzeului îl constituie Biblioteca dramaturgului. Ea reunește 24.000 de documente originale din toate domeniile artei: teatru, film, reviste de specialitate, scrisori ale unor personalități culturale, fotografii cu portrete feminine ce trimit spre povești de dragoste, dar și o sală de conferințe modern echipată, unde se organizează diverse evenimente culturale.
\nDin anul 1952 casa natală, strada și parcul în care este amplasată au fost declarate parte a Patrimoniului național și au intrat în posesia Regiunii Sicilia. După ce străbați acest spațiu cultural simți nevoia să recitești ”Căruța cu paiațe” sau ”Să-i îmbrăcăm pe cei goi !”. Prea multe șanse de a vedea aceste piese jucate pe scenele teatrelor noastre nu se întrevăd la orizont. Deși Pirandello era un favorit al regizorilor și actorilor români înainte de ‘89. Dar asta-i o altă poveste!

Prea multe șanse de a vedea aceste piese jucate pe scenele teatrelor noastre nu se întrevăd la orizont. Deși Pirandello era un favorit al regizorilor și actorilor români înainte de ‘89. Dar asta-i o altă poveste!

Pînă acolo am străbătut un drum care șerpuiește printre sate și mori de vânt amplasate până pe platoul Lasithi. În mai multe locuri s-au construit mici taverne, semn că business-ul merge, încojurate de mori de vânt ce asigură o parte din energia electrică a localurilor. O cafea, un popas fotografic.

Ghidul nu scapă ocazia să ne spună că în anumite zone ele vor fi refăcute cu ajutorul unor finanțări europene. Ca multe altele și această poveste este un fascinant amestec de adevăr istoric și mitologie. Să punem în mișcare adevărul: peștera a fost descoperită întâmplător de către localnici prin 1883. După aceea au fost atrași în valuri arheologi faimoși ai vremii. Săpăturile făcute au scos la lumină pe lângă artefacte cu o valoare culturală deosebită și povestea peșterii căci în interiorul său s-a descoperit un altar pentru ofrande. Printre obiecte se numără statuete și vase de cult datând din anii 1800 înainte de Cristos. În 1897 arheologul francez Joseph Demargne semnala existența unei diademe de aur, a cărei descriere o face în însemnările sale, dar despre care în prezent nu se mai știe nimic. Probabil, undeva, ea dă valoare excepțională unei colecții private. Și dacă locul este închinat venerării lui Zeus, să facem un popas și în mitologie. Rhea fugind din calea lui Kronos, care-și devora urmașii s-ar fi ascuns în această peșteră unde l-a născut pe Zeus. Ea i-a dat să înghită un bolovan lui Kronos, astfel că trupul lui Zeus a fost salvat. Mica zeitate a fost hrănită de către Amaltheia (după unii nimfă, după alții... capră). Alte variante: ar fi fi fost crescut cu miere de albine și carne de porumbițe.

E ca și cum am scrie… vâslind printre munți. Deși acolo unde sunt râuri adânci asta ar fi posibil. Bref! Vreți să trăiți o experiență diferită de o călătorie cu vaporul în inima Deltei Dunării ? Atunci căutați-l pe Mihai.\r\n\r\n\r\nÎn urmă cu câțiva ani de zile a început să-l fascineze ințiativele lui Ivan Patzaichin lansate de pe rampa Asociației ce poartă numele ”Ivan Patzaichin - Mila 23”. Ivan a bătut fierul până l-a înroșit forțând uși, dezrădăcinând mentalități care se fixaseră în cuvintele ”Nu se poate!”. Canotca, noua sa ambarcațiuni, a devenit subiectul unui festival iar mișcarea Turism lent a crescut într-atât încât Mihai Giurgiuveanu a lăsat pentru o vreme uscatul să trăiască fără el aventurându-se și începând să navigheze printre ideile lui Patzaichin. În aproape doi ani a devenit cunoscut astfel că poți da de el fie întrebând la Asociație fie la proprietarii unor pensiuni, hoteluri din Tulcea dar și din localitățile apropiate. Ți se spune că dacă dorești să trăiești o experiență aparte merită să pornești ghidat de acest tânăr ce deține o ambarcațiune foarte specială. Unde mai pui că, deocamdată este singura de acest fel care străbate Delta. Halmyris este o barcă tradițională construită în întregime din lemn. E un proiect special căruia i-a dat viață Paul Vasiliu, ultimul marangoz al Deltei Dunării. Ea a fost concepută în atelierele școală ale Asociației ”Ivan Patzaichin”, care caută cu disperare tineri ucenici. A fost singura ambarcațiune comandată în 2015. Nu este una de mari dimensiuni. Are o capacitate lejeră de circa 10 persoane. Ce o face specială pentru turism? Faptul că ghidul este și căpitan de navă, iar căpitanul de navă joacă rolul de ”one man show” servind pe parcursul scurtei croaziere - circa 4 ore -, răcoritoare, bere, cafea etc. Mai mult, face la ora prânzului și oficiile de gazdă pricepută în ale preparatelor pescărești. Despre asta la timpul potrivit !Chiar dacă nu pare un alt lucru important acolo între ape este că barca deține o toaletă ceea ce o face funcțională, confortabilă.\r\n\r\n[gallery ids=\"5296,5297,5298,5299,5300,5301\"]\r\n\r\nMihai Giurgiuveanu e proprietarul unui unicat. Asta și pentru că Halmyris este pusă în mișcare de un motor electric eco care, firește, nu poluează apele Deltei, nu deranjează fauna și flora așa cum o fac, inconștienți, o parte din proprietarii unor șalupe puternice. Acesta este unul dintre șpiluri - să faci turism neagresiv, în armonie cu natura. Cunoscătorii spun că forma bărcii Halmyris seamănă cu cea a lotcii solare lansată de Asociația lui Patzaichin. De unde se trage numele bărcii? De la cel al cetății romane, fondată se pare de marinari în secolul al II-lea. Ruinele ei ai fost descoperite în apropiere de localității Murighiol.\r\n\r\nPoate fi aceasta o afacere ? Mihai spune că da. ”În condițiile în care sezonul începe la gurile Tulcei pe la 1 aprilie, când revin păsările în Deltă. Când încep să-și facă locurile pentru cuibărit. Atunci apar grupurile mici, amatoare de bird watching, foto hunting. Atunci apar ornitologii interesați de mișcarea și viața unor specii rare, de floră și faună sau unicat. Sezonul poate dura mai bine de șase luni. Cred că Delta Dunării se pretează mult mai bine la acest tip de turism, cel de masă fiind mai agresiv cu natura dacă nu este bine controlat. La început când am dorit să-mi comand o barcă specială, m-am gândit la gondolele de la Veneția. De ce n-am avea gondolieri și pe canalele Dunării? Uite că acum avem pentru început unul. O asemenea barcă e mai ușor de manevrat, canalele fiind mult mai accesibile pentru a descoperi imagini naturale inedite. Patzaichin a făcut enorm pentru Deltă iar echipa de care este înconjurat emite în permanență mesaje optimiste despre susținerea vechilor tradiții și meserii din această parte a Dobrogei. Multe dintre proiecte au fost înțelese și susținute prin fonduri europene.”\r\n\r\nNu ne-am propus să vă vorbim despre dansul păsărilor de pe curenții de aer, de coloniile de pelicani, de cormorani sau despre cele de nuferi. Ci mai mult despre oamenii care fac posibilă întâlnirea noastră cu ele. Minicroaziera propusă de Mihai are un popas surpriză la coliba lui nea Gigi și tanti Jeni, cu care te împrietenești repede. Un borș de pește făcut la ceaun cu apă din Deltă (atenție conform tradiției zeama și carnea se servesc separat), urmate de niște platouri pescărești cu crap și somn prăjiți, mujdei de usturoi, vinuleț sau bere (chiar dacă nu prea merge contribuie la alunecatul peștelui pe gât), toate vor deveni amintiri memorabile. Ca și mirosul ce-ți rămâne în nări de la focul făcut cu lemne de fag. Ne-a Gigi, un tulcean hâtru spune că e concurentul bucătarilor internaționali. ”Au fost pe la noi germani, italieni, israelieni, chinezi, japonezi, arabi din Emirate chiar și o familie din Hong Kong.

Cu litere mari. Secretarul general al Organizaţiei Mondiale a Turismului (OMT), care urmează linia de simpatie a antecedesorului său Francesco Frangialli, a pledat vinovat de dragoste de România şi în vara acestui an, la Bucureşti. A făcut-o de la pupitrul Conferinţei internaţionale „Managementul Integrat al Calităţii pentru Destinaţiile Turistice: Cheia pentru competitivitate”. A fost cel mai important eveniment internaţional de turism organizat în România în 2016. Participarea de la Palatul Parlamentului a reflectat-o pe deplin. A meritat să fii acolo? Sigur că da! De câte ori pe an au oamenii de afaceri din turis mul românesc ocazia să asculte un orator şi un diplomat subţire ca Taleb Rifai. Secretul în turism este să faci pe toată lumea din jurul tău să se simtă bine. De aprofundat.\r\n\r\n\r\nPune jetonul pe...Transilvania şi vampire\r\n\r\nTaleb Rifai crede că România a devenit o poveste de succes în turism şi merită mai mult, întrucât are atracţii care nu se găsesc în altă parte în lume. Oamenii trec\r\ngraniţele iar această mişcare reprezintă o adevarată schimbare în viaţa noastră. La acest lucru a contribuit şi revoluţia IT. Prin social-media, oamenii au înţeles că sunt mai importanţi decât guvernele şi decât companiile pentru care muncesc. În 2015 au existat peste 2 miliarde de călători în întreaga lume. Turismul a contribuit cu 10% la\r\nPIB-ul global, generând 1,4 trilioane de dolari. Turiştii cheltuiesc zilnic în lume 3,5 miliarde de dolari. „Turismul este unul dintre cele mai eficiente instrumente diplomatice. România ar trebui să se concentreze pe miturile şi legendele locale pentru a se promova. Ar trebui să parieze pe Transilvania şi legenda lui Dracula. Trebuie să vă axaţi pe particularităţile specifice, care ar putea la fel de bine să fie considerate un brand de ţară: „Miturile şi legendele ţării care trebuie păstrate” şi mă refer la poveştile cu Dracula, Vlad Ţepeş, vampiri şi alte istorii din zona transilvaneană” – spune Rifai.\r\n\r\n\r\nDincolo de gardul poeziei\r\n\r\nDupă ce anul 2015 a închis fermoarul la sinteza cifrelor a existat un optimism care suntem convinşi că se va exprima şi în 2016. Anul precedent, turismul a contribuit cu 5,1% la PIB României. Ceea ce ne plasează pe locul 154 în lume din 184 de ţări, în urma Albaniei,\r\nBulgariei, Ungariei, Cehiei şi Slovaciei, potrivit unui raport al Consiliului Mondial al Turismului (WTTC). Într-un număr trecut noi am publicat alte cifre, dar această sursă globală „ajustează” datele statistice naţionale.\r\nWTTC anticipează o creştere de 5,4% a contribuţiei totale a turismului la PIB în acest an, urmată de o rată medie de creştere de 3,8% pe an până în 2024, la 50,8 miliarde lei.\r\nPe de altă parte din datele statistice ale României postate pe site-ul UE aflăm că ţara noastră a în casat apro ximativ 3 miliarde euro din turism. Unde ne situăm? Răspunsul îl dau tot cifrele: nu are rost să vorbim de primele 7 superputeri turistice mondiale: SUA, Franţa, China, Germania, Anglia, Spania şi Italia. Finlanda încasează 7 miliarde de euro din turism, Irlanda 8 miliarde, Portugalia şi Danemarca câte 12, Grecia 14, Norvegia 18, iar odată cu Suedia trecem de plafonul de 21 de miliarde.\r\n\r\n\r\nAvem mare dar şi mic\r\n\r\nCum e posibil ca o ţară care are 291.000 de locuri de cazare grupate în circa 5.344 de unităţi să încaseze doar 3 miliarde de euro? Asta în comparaţie cu altele ce deţin cam aceeaşi configuraţie de primire dar au încasări de două sau chiar trei ori mai mari! Unii ar spune că se lucrează mult la negru. Nu a fost dovedit acest aspect şi nici măcar dimensiunile lui. Eurostat precizează foarte clar – aveţi capacitate de cazare mare, dar grad de ocupare mic.\r\n\r\nLa această categorie ne situăm undeva pe ultimele locuri în rândul celor 28 de state\r\nmembre ale UE. În 2015 am avut 6.821 de unităţi de ca zare, cu 691 mai multe decât în 2014. Un lucru foarte bun. Numai că, în ceea ce priveşte gradul de ocupare, el a fost de numai 28,7%. Puţin peste un sfert din capacitate a fost ocupată.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nMerită să fim optimişti\r\n\r\nContextul turistic european şi mondial ne este favo rabil. Astfel turis mul românesc ar putea înregistra o creştere de cel puţin 18%, ceea ce ar putea consacra 2016 drept cel mai bun an\r\nde după 1989. „Sunt optimistă şi cred că putem să ajun gem la o creştere în 2016 de minimum 18%” – preciza cu ocazia conferinţei de la Bucureşti, Anca Pavel-Nedea, preşedintele Autorităţii Naţionale pentru Turism. Un alt studiu convergent, care a analizat turismul de business – motorul dezvoltării travelului românesc –, aduce evaluări la fel de optimiste. Potrivit companiei KeysFin, în următorii zece ani, sumele generate de turismul de business ar tre bui să ajungă la 13,6 miliarde de lei pe an, iar cele atrase de turismul de agrement ar trebui să urce şi ele la aproape 17 miliarde de lei anual. 2016 ar putea fi cel mai bun an pentru turismul românesc din ultimii 10 ani. Cifra de afaceri a agenţiilor şi a touroperatorilor ar urma să treacă, în premieră, de 4,5 miliarde de lei, un nivel care ar putea atinge dublul încasărilor din 2010, subliniază studiul.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU & ANGELA SIMION','Am devenit poveste de succes ?, STATISTICA nr.150','','inherit','closed','closed','','5233-revision-v1','','','2017-03-07 19:57:12','2017-03-07 17:57:12','',5233,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2017/03/07/5233-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5308,1,'2017-03-07 19:57:55','2017-03-07 17:57:55','','Mofeta 2214','','inherit','open','closed','','mofeta-2214','','','2017-03-07 19:57:55','2017-03-07 17:57:55','',5235,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Mofeta-2214.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5309,1,'2017-03-07 19:58:15','2017-03-07 17:58:15','','Hotel Phoenix 4','','inherit','open','closed','','hotel-phoenix-4','','','2017-03-07 19:58:15','2017-03-07 17:58:15','',5235,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Hotel-Phoenix-4.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5310,1,'2017-03-07 19:58:27','2017-03-07 17:58:27','','Piscina Balnear 22','','inherit','open','closed','','piscina-balnear-22','','','2017-03-07 19:58:27','2017-03-07 17:58:27','',5235,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Piscina-Balnear-22.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5311,1,'2017-03-07 19:58:42','2017-03-07 17:58:42','','International Hidroterapie','','inherit','open','closed','','international-hidroterapie','','','2017-03-07 19:58:42','2017-03-07 17:58:42','',5235,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/International-Hidroterapie.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5312,1,'2017-03-07 19:58:48','2017-03-07 17:58:48','Poate nu ştiaţi. Dar în ţara noastră activează o Asociaţie Română de Turism Medical. Ea deţine conexiuni internaţionale şi încă de la început şi-a propus să coaguleze interesele unor\r\nspitale, clinici, furnizori de servicii medicale, agenţii de turism ori de asigurări.\r\n\r\nDupă cum se poate observa avem în faţă produse cu componente complexe, de calitate superioară dar promovate în România la preţuri atractive pentru turiştii străini. Cum ajung aceste informaţii în străinătate? Mai întâi prin canalelemedicale specializate – workshopuri, reuniuni, prezentări de produse, congrese. Apoi Asociaţia Română de Turism Medical şi-a propus să editeze un Ghid (Romanian Medical Tourism Guide) prin care sunt făcute cunoscute pacienţilor străini clinicile şi spitalele private din marile oraşe din România, tratamentele de care beneficiază, precum şi atracţiile turistice, capacităţile de cazare şi activităţi specifice zonei alese. În acest scop există o concentrare a interesului pe construirea unor programe turistice care să diversifice posibilităţile de relaxare, refacere şi petrecere a timpului liber pe care-l are călătorul străin venit în ţara noastră pentru un tratament sau o inter venţie chirurgicală. În fapt vorbim de un segment de nişă foarte profitabil şi cu o valoare adăugată foarte ridicată.\r\n\r\nRitm de creştere - 15-20%\r\n\r\nCât de profitabil? Răzvan Andrei Nacea, directorul general al Seytour, companie specializată în turism medical a anunţat că pacienţii străini vin în România pentru turism dentar, investigaţii şi tratamente oftalmologice, chirurgie estetică şi plastică. Atât timp cât vor continua să plătească cu aproximativ 40% mai puţin din preţurile din ţările de origine, vor continua să abordeze piaţa românească.\r\n\r\n\r\nPrincipalii furnizori sunt Germania, Marea Britanie, Italia, Franţa şi Israel. Cheltuiala medie a unui străin pentru servicii medicale în România este între câteva sute şi circa 8.000 de euro. Seytour estimează că piaţa turismului medical din România depăşeşte 300 de milioane de euro. Ea este dominată de servicii spa si wellness. Dar există şi reversul medaliei. Şi românii se tratează în străinătate mai ales de afecţiuni majore care nu pot fi soluţionate datorită limitelor tehnologice existente în ţară.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nConform reprezentantului Seytour românii îşi tratează în clinicile din străinătate malformaţiile conge nitale, traumatismele rămase în urma unor accidente, cataracta, astigmatismul, diferite tipuri de cancer sau tumori. Cele mai solicitate destinaţii pe segmentul de turism medical sunt Ungaria, Turcia, Austria, Germania şi Israel. Un român cheltuieşte în străinătate pentru servicii medicale peste 5.000 de euro. Ritmul de creştere al segmentului a fost de circa 15-20% pe an, în ultimii trei ani. Există şanse clare ca acesta să se păstreze, mai apreciază Răzvan Nacea.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nO piaţă de circa jumătate de milion de turişti\r\n\r\nUn studiu al Insight Market Research Solutions, estima că valoarea pieţei de turism medical din România s-ar putea dubla. Ea are un potenţial ca în viitorul apropiat să depăşească 500.000 de turişti sosiţi în România în scop medical. Succesul turismului medical din România se bazează pe doi factori principali: pe de o parte, renumele medicilor de origine română în cele mai mari spitale din lume iar pe de altă parte, atractivitatea pache telor oferite. Segmentul cel mai vânat este cel al serviciilor stomatologice. Astfel, tot mai multe cabinete, în parteneriat cu agenţii de turism, au elaborat pachete specializate. La fel de optimist se arată Dr. Bogdan Vlădilă, medic specialist Stomatologie Generală care a creat compania Dentist Holiday.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCompetenţele sale au fost acumulate în clinici din Franţa, Suedia, Marea Britanie, Japonia, SUA etc. „Excelenţa actului medical Dentist Holiday este atestată de numeroasele dispozitive medicale patentate la nivel european. Am adoptat o filosofie inovatoare în medicina dentară: depunem toate eforturile pentru întreţinerea danturii native precum şi pentru menţinerea implanturilor pe o perioadă cât mai îndelungată.” Cât priveşte flexibilitatea de care se bucură pacienţii, Dentist Holiday, „colaborează cu numerose cabinete din ţară şi din străinătate, în principalele oraşe din zonele turistice ale României”– a mai precizat Vlădilă.\r\n\r\nLa vremea lansării primelor pachete, Gheorghe Răcaru, directorul general al Blue Air, arăta că transportatorul român este profund implicat în dezvoltarea acestui segment. „Flexibilitatea noilor clienţi în domeniul turismului medical este asigurată şi de larga paletă de conexiuni oferite. Suntem încrezători că turismul medical are un viitor în România. El poate marca un pas înainte pentru sistemul medical naţional.”\r\n\r\nC.

Interesant a fost modul de gândire al noilor conduceri-vechi ale unor asociaţii şi patronate din turism. În momentul în care Genius Travel a anunţat că nu mai poate onora vacanţele a circa 50-60 de turişti (lipseau din vistierie circa 50.000 de euro), Asociaţia Naţională a Agenţiilor de Turism, care a fost informată anterior de situaţie, a sărit ca arsă. Prima măsură de delimitare de un membru al său a fost să-l excludă din organizaţie. Aşa-i trebuie, bine i-a făcut veţi spune! Genius Travel a fost pusă la zid şi ciuruită cu generozitate. Bravo! Oare nu exista şi altă soluţie?\r\n\r\nSe pare că da! Pentru că a fost folosită pentru o altă agenţie – Mareea, care figurează în Top 10 naţional, din punct de vedere al cifrei de afaceri. După ce a practicat o strategie de non-comunicare, surpriză, şi-a anunţat intrarea în insolvenţă. A doua surpriză.\r\n\r\nANAT aruncă pe piaţă un comunicat, cum că în cazul Agenţiei de turism Mareea, atât ANAT cât şi Federaţia Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR), asta şi pentru că Mareea are o divizie ce operează hoteluri pe litoral în regim charter , au hotărât să întindă o mână generoasă pentru a acoperi costurile restante ale operatorului român. „Astfel 2-300 de turişti ro mâni au putut să-şi efectueze vacanţele datorită sprijinului acordat de tur ope ratori membri ANAT pentru ca agenţia Mareea să depăşească situaţia critică din punct de\r\nvedere financiar şi pentru a evita perturbări în piaţa de turism. Preluăm turişti şi în aceste zile.\r\n\r\nANAT se bu cură şi de sprijinul hotelierilor de pe litoral, parteneri ai agenţiei Mareea, cărora le mulţumim că s-au oferit să preia turişti“ – declara Alin Burcea, preşedintele organizaţiei. ANAT a anunţat şi constituirea unei celule de criză menită să soluţioneze vacanţele plătite pe litoral dar şi în Delta Dunării. Asta spirit de breaslă, asta da într-ajutorare. Într-ajutorare în ce? Plutesc în aer mai multe întrebări. De ce pentru sume mai mici Genius Travel a fost exclus din ANAT iar Mareea a fost îmbrăţişată cu dragoste.\r\n\r\n Atitudinea de salvgardare ar fi trebuit să existe faţă de ambele agenţii. Numărul turiştilor lăsaţi pe bară de Genius era derizoriu în comparaţie cu cel ai lui Mareea. Conducerea ANAT, dincolo de marea miză spre care ţinteşte – crearea unui Fond de garantare a pachetelor\r\nde vacanţă, mai trebuie doar puţin împins de pe masa guvernului spre zona executivă , va trebui să-şi clarifice poziţia. Dacă ANAT doreşte să continue să fie o organizaţie modernă şi dinamică, atunci ea va fi mama tuturor membrilor săi. Dacă însă doreşte de la 5-600 de membri să se „comprime” la vreo 20-30 si să creeze un monopol de interese, atunci varianta\r\nGenius Travel, a fost un test de succes.

17 million Euros from wine export
\r\n Last year, Romania exported 14 million liters of wine in value of 24 million Euros. The most significant export markets were Great Britain, Germany, China, USA, Canada, Netherlands and Bulgaria. According to the data of the Association of producers and exporters of wines from Romania (APEV), in terms of volume 78% were exported to European markets, the rest being covered by the ones outside this area. Among the important companies that participate to the consolidation of this activity are Cramele Recaș, Oprișor and Halewood, which export about 50% of the production, Domeniile S.E.R.V.E, over 43%, Săhăteni-Aurelia Vișinescu 40% etc. \r\n\r\nPOTAISSA entered the circuit\r\n\r\nAs a result of an investment of about 1 million lei, the company Turda Salt Mine modernized and inaugurated Potaissa hotel. According to the manager, Simona Baciu, “the hotel, which offers 24 rooms and apartments, now has a SPA center in which a medical office will also run. Overall, the investment will amount, until the end of the year, to about 4 million lei.” Last year, Turda Salt Mine was visited by almost 550,000 tourists, the highest number registered since its rehabilitation, in 2010. About 30% of them are foreigners and they came from Hungary, Israel, England, USA, Spain, China, Japan, Poland, Germany, Mexico.\r\nPREMIERE: Lake Village on DANUBE GORGES
\r\nThe investment is almost completed at Berzasca (Caras Severin county), on the bank of Danube Gorges. The project of the first lake village in Romania includes 30 cottages on pillars in the middle of the water. The entire complex is composed of two islands, Egreta and Pelicanul, each with 15 bungalows. The cottages (which have living rooms, kitchens and bedroom on the upper level) are connected by suspended cliffs, but pontoons for fishermen and a mini-harbor for boats, alleys for passengers, a bicycle track etc. will also be created. “There is also an arranged swimming pool, parking for 40 cars. This is only the first part of the project: 15 bungalows, swimming pool and reception. We will also have a restaurant which will be ready next year. There will be another 15 mirrored bungalows, but we are waiting for at least one investor wishing to build here” – investor Sorin Liubimirescu specifies. The project was also embraced by the city hall of Berzasca, which sensed that the economic and tourism development will generate jobs and additional finances to the local budget - Traian Mateescu, deputy Mayor of Berzasca commune stated.\r\n\r\nThe lake holiday village received the financial support of the European Union, which contributed with almost 200,000 non-refundable Euros.

\r\nThe company Ana Hotels, controlled by the Copos family, announced the start of certain investments in value of about 20 million Euros that will have as subject Athenee Palace – Hilton Hotel of Bucharest. They shall take place on several stages and they include the full renovation of rooms (which will last until 2020), the construction of a new hotel body with about 70 rooms as well as a conference hall of 900 square meters.

Valorile culturale ne apropie între noi” - a declarat Karel Bartak, Head of Culture Unit în cadrul Comisiei Europene.

\r\nTURISMUL ECVESTRU: Mai mult decât o promisiune\r\nÎn România există peste 150 de pensiuni și proprietăți agroturistice care dețin cai pentru activități ecvestre. Turism ecvestru efectiv, la nivel profesionist, practică însă doar vreo 40. Drept urmare organizarea primei ediții a Forumului de Turism Ecvestru la hotelul Ibis-Gara de Nord, a fost binevenit și așteptat. Pentru operatorii şi pentru ghizii de turism a fost un prilej de a afla informaţii utile legate de activitatea celor care se ocupă cu creşterea cailor. La Forum - organizat de către Equestrian Adventures (director Florina Ioanid Nicolescu) în parteneriat cu InfoTravelRomania (director Petre Dordea), au fost prezentate ofertele unor centre de echitaţie din Râşnov, Sighişoara, Harghita, Cluj, Alba, dar şi Dâmboviţa. Printre speakeri s-au numărat Andras Albert – Villa Honor (cai islandezi); Alexandru Gaftoi – Centrul Ecvestru Husar; Oana Valea – Centru de Călărie Aladin; Ducar Diana – Centrul de Echitație Diana - Râșnov; Roxana Hădărean – Villa Abbatis Equestrian Center; Adela Dadu – Pensiunea Domeniile Salgo; Mihnea Vîrgolici – Cross Country Farm; Ionuț Popescu – Pensiunea Potcoava etc. Printre altele ei au vorbit despre oferte personalizate,, flexibile, pentru grupuri mici și turiști individuali, îmbinarea cu alte tipuri de turism de nișă ca de exemplu turism viniviticol (cel mai apreciat mixt), cultural, istoric, etnofolcloric, de aventură, gastronomic etc. Prima ediție a Forumului de Turism Ecvestru a beneficiat de susținerea unor parteneri precum Clubul Presei de Turism - FIJET România, Traveller Magazin etc.

Un proiect anunțat cu mai bine de 4 ani în urmă a fost finalizat de Salina Turda. În urma unei investiții de circa 1 milion de lei, fonduri provenite dintr-un credit dar și din surse proprii ale salinei, a fost modernizat și inaugurat hotelul Potaissa. Conform directorului Salinei Turda, Simona Baciu ”hotelul, ce oferă 24 de camere și apartamente, beneficiaza acum de un centru SPA în cadrul căruia va funcționa și o bază medicală. În total investiția se va ridica până la sfârșitul anului la circa 4 milioane de lei.” Anul trecut, Salina Turda a fost vizitată de aproape 550.000 de turiști, cel mai mare număr înregistrat de la reabilitarea sa, în 2010. Circa 30% dintre aceștia sunt străini și au venit din Ungaria, Israel, Anglia, SUA, Spania, China, Japonia, Polonia, Germania, Mexic.
\r\nDe asemenea, la București Compania Ana Hotels, controlată de familia Copos, a anunțat demararea unor investiții în valoare de circa 20 milioane de euro ce vor avea ca obiect hotelul Athenee Palace - Hilton. Acestea se vor desfășura pe mai multe etape și includ renovarea completă a camerelor (ce va dura până în 2020), construirea unui corp nou de hotel cu aproximativ 70 de camere precum și a unei săli de conferințe de 900 metri pătrați. Investițiile sunt susținute de acționarul majoritar din fondurile și dividendele rezultate în urma vânzării Ana IMEP din Pitești către grupul nipon Nidec.
\r\nTRANZACȚII: Unde sunt cumpărătorii ?
\r\nÎncă două hoteluri din stațiunea Poiana Brașov - Rina Vista și Rina Tirol -, clasificate la 3 stele, deținute de o firmă cu acționari israelieni intrată în faliment, au fost scoase inițial la vânzare pentru suma de 3,1, respectiv 2,1 milioane de euro. Deoarece nu s-a găsit încă un cumpărător, prețul de vânzare a fost redus la 2,4 milioane de euro pentru Rina Vista, dar pentru Rina Tirol el a fost ridicat la 2,5 milioane de euro. În 2008, când a achizitionat cele două hoteluri, compania anunța că va investi 8 milioane de euro în modernizarea acestora. După apariția crizei compania s-a confruntat cu dificultăți financiare intrând în insolvență în 2012 și anul trecut în faliment. Rina Tirol are 56 de camere repartizate pe 4 etaje, iar Rina Vista are 106 camere pe 5 etaje.
\r\nLa rândul său olandezul Jerry van Schaik, și-a anunțat intenția de a vinde integral pachetul de acțiuni deținut la Rembrandt Hotel SRL. Aceasta operează hotelul și cafeneaua Klein, recent lansată pe piață, din Centrul Vechi al Capitalei. Prețul de pornire este de 350.000 euro.

Frog City - o chestiune de marketing
\r\nBroaște pe toți pereții caselor. Când ai pătruns în inima sudului Louisianei și o iei înspre Lafayette n-ai cum să nu te oprești în ineditul Rayne - alias Frog City. Circa 8000 de locuitori sunt risipiți pe o suprafață de cam 10 kilometri pătrați. Un orășel, ce seamănă cu un studiou cinematografic hollyvoodian, ce are toți pereții clădirilor din zona centrală pictați cu... broaște. Cum s-a ajuns aici! Pe la 1860 localitatea avea cam 600 de locuitori care trăiau în vecinătatea unei zone foarte umede (denumită de americani bayou) foarte bogată în... broaște. Cine a făcut-o celebră? Trei întreprinzători de origine franceză, chef Donac Pucheu și mai apoi frații Weil pe la 1880, încep comerțul extrem de inedit și profitabil cu celebre delicatese ”picioare de broască”. Odată servite în faimosul restaurant new-yorkez Sardi’s ele transformă orașul în ceea ce se numește azi Frog City, denumit ulterior Capitala Mondială a Broaștelor. Ăsta da marketing turistic de destinație!Dar până acolo a fost nevoie de oameni destupați la minte. Producția și livrările au început să duduie. Localnicii au răspuns cu entuziasm acestei nesperate celebrități. Ei au apelat la un artist în vogă Robert Dafford, căruia i-au comandat să decoreze strada principală cu picturi cu batracieni executate manual.
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5375,5376,5377,5378,5379,5380,5381,5382\"]\r\nAnul 1946 consolidează reputația localității căci la inițiativa Lyons Club are loc primul Derby al broaștelor la care se atribuie titluri ca ”Frogambasador” sau ”Monsieur Jacques”. Festival a atins în prezent 44 de ediții. Este o plăcere, străbătând orașul, să te întâmpine peste tot statuete sau picturi cu broscuțe, marcaje, semne de circulație, suveniruri... A, da, și sediul ziarului local ”Rayne Tribune” al cărui prim număr ce datează din 1894, își datorează faima broscuțelor și mai ales jurnalistei Myrta Fair Craig care l-a condus până în 1994.
\r\nCracklin, în varianta Marie Ducote
\r\n…Și acum ”Allons Manger” căci scopul nostru este de a cunoaște bucătăria ”Cajun” și mai ales să aflăm gustul acestor preparate care onorează orașul Lafayette cu titlul de paradis gastronomic. Așa încât ne lăsăm conduși de Marie Ducote, un ghid de excepție (profesor de istorie) care ne oferă un regal de informații atât gastro cât și istorice. Poveștile ei despre acadieni populație (de origine franceză), stabilită în regiunea denumită azi Acadiana, cu aproximativ 200 de ani în urmă, sunt pline de gust și savoare căci sunt practice: vreți să știți ce este ”cracklin”? Ne oprim la ”Famous Food”, un local de familie unde patronul ne servește la micul dejun ”cracklin” adică jumări crocante de porc. Tot el ne delectează cu câteva melodii interpretate la acordeon în stil... zydeco. Și ne mai servește și ”Boudin” adică mai pe limba noastră... caltaboș fiert sau prăjit. Aceasta este considerată mâncarea favorită a Sudului. Pentru a înțelege în profunzime ce înseamnă ”Laissez les bon temps rouler” suntem ghidați spre alte trei locații din cele peste 25 recomandate în acest ”Cajun Food Tours”. Primul stop în facem la ”Early’s food store”, un magazin unde poți servi zilnic, la prânz, în afară de preparate cracklin și boudin un burger special de pui și celebra lor plăcintă cu piersici. Ai timp să tragi cu ochiul spre vitrinele frigorifice ticsite cu semipreparate pentru acasă: pui umplut cajun, porc cajun & cârnați, jumări etc. Noi ne-am făcut plăcerea de a lua o cutie din condimentul minune al casei. Și ne-am convins de gustul său iute-smoked special. După atâta carne merge o cafea, așa că ne oprin la un local deschis special pentru noi în sfânta zi de duminică. La ”Papa T” unde avem parte de o demonstrație profesională a proprietarului care alături de cafea ne tratează cu ”bread puding” marca ”Papa T” foarte apreciată în zonă. Într-atât încât pentru zilele săptămânii, datorită supraaglomerării cererii e necesar să-ți faci anterior, programare. Deci, avantaj noi! Următorul respiro al turului îl facem la ”Carpe Diem” tot în Lafayette, unde testăm o înghețată ”home-maid”. De aici pornim spre Centrul de informare turistică al orașului de unde pornesc toate excursiile urbane ori în natură. Aici ne distrăm cu aromele emanate dintr-un dulap de bucătărie, unde fiecare sertar ori ușă deschisă degajă arome de condimente folosite la preparatele boudin și cracklin. Nu întâmplător Lafayette, ”inima cajun & creole a Louisianei” a primit numai în ultimii șase ani mai multe distincții pentru gastronomie. ”Best Food City 2011” (din partea USA Today), ”Diamonds in the Rough 2015” (Conde Nast Traveller), ”STS Top 20 Events 2016” (Scott Boudin and Gulf Brew) etc.
\r\nLa Randol adie briza Golfului Mexic
\r\nExperiențele acumulate ne-au pregătit pentru după-amiază cînd am vizitat unul dintre celebrele localuri din Louisiana. 40 de ani de tradiție, nimic fastuos la intrare dar memorabil din punct de vedere gastronomic în interior. ”Randol’s Restaurant & Cajun Dance Hall” este renumit pentru preparatele din fructe de mare, aduse zilnic din Golful Mexic. Frank Randol se mândrește cu echipa sa care a servit de-a lungul anilor vedete, oameni simpli, alături de președinți americani în exercițiu sau foști. Nu vă vom reproduce meniul dar merită să vă recomandăm dacă ajugeți pe urmele noastre: aligator prăjit, crab prăjit (și în toate formele), chiftele de crab albastru, scoici, creveți crocanți, produse din pui și porc etc. Lista vinurilor te trimite spre dealurile însorite din Franța, Argentina, Australia, Noua Zeelandă și, evident, California. De sutele de sortimentele de bere, nu mai vorbim. Dar merită să vorbim despre, surpriză, dimensiunile uriașe ale porțiilor servite. Așa e în America, totul e mare! Atmosferă ca în filmele alea bune, e susținută de o formație care cântă live, întotdeaua live, muzică zydeco, cajun, country. Cum puțină mișcare nu strică ringul de dans este în permanență plin. Imaginați-vă ceva simplu, atmosfera anilor ‘60 de la noi, bal la căminul cultural cu Semnal M. De aici vine tot farmecul. Mâncare de top servită în farfurii cu dimensiunile platourilor, pe fețe de masă în carouri roșii, cadru relaxat, oameni amabili etc. Apoi nu veți scăpa ocazia în momentul plecării să faceți la ieșire o fotografie călare pe un aligator din lemn. Firește... o operă de artă.
\r\nDespre cină v-am spus câte ceva. Dar ce-ați spune despre un mic dejun, servit a doua zi dimineață la ”Pat’s of Henderson”? Un local cochet care de 50 de ani oferă clienților crab au gratin, creveți umpluți, scoici înăbușite sau coapte, salate și cam tot ce vă doriți. Și evident condimentele și sosurile casei, sunt preparate într-o fabrică proprietate a familiei.
\r\nBayou Rum - tradiția s-a reînodat
\r\nȘi pentru că toate acestea trebuie stropite ne oprim la cea mai mare distilerie privată de rom din America. ”Romul este băutura care dă valoare produsului agricol” spun localnicii. Noi adăugăm că ne-a ajutat de minune să digerăm mai ușor mesele consumate. ”Bayou Rum” ne întâmpină cu o atnosferă modernă. Este o afacere nouă fondată în urmă cu 5 ani. Cu ajutorul ei a fost reînviată tradiția producerii romului din trestie de zahăr, resursă abundentă în zonă, ce datează din secolul al XVIII. Documentele atestă existența unor distilerii pe la 1751, cu o întrerupere în perioada războiului din 1861-1865 și apoi din 1919, când din cauza prohibiției producția de rom a fost sistată. O degustare a mărcilor fabricii precum și turul distileriei ne-au oferit prilejul de a remarca existența unei picturi murale cu peisaje din mlaștinile Louisianei, care se îmbina perfect cu tancurile și butoaiele unde se prelucrează și păstrează romul. Sortimentele oferite de gazde la testat s-au armonizat perfect cu o gustare tradițională: Darrell’s Poboy, celebrele sandvișuri în franzele, umplute cu... de toate. De la carne până la salăți. Ceea ce vă recomandă și dumneavoastră. După un asemenea tur gastronomic avem o recomandare. Singurul antidot este... fuga în natură. Pe curând.

Festival a atins în prezent 44 de ediții. Este o plăcere, străbătând orașul, să te întâmpine peste tot statuete sau picturi cu broscuțe, marcaje, semne de circulație, suveniruri... A, da, și sediul ziarului local ”Rayne Tribune” al cărui prim număr ce datează din 1894, își datorează faima broscuțelor și mai ales jurnalistei Myrta Fair Craig care l-a condus până în 1994.
\r\nCracklin, în varianta Marie Ducote
\r\n…Și acum ”Allons Manger” căci scopul nostru este de a cunoaște bucătăria ”Cajun” și mai ales să aflăm gustul acestor preparate care onorează orașul Lafayette cu titlul de paradis gastronomic. Așa încât ne lăsăm conduși de Marie Ducote, un ghid de excepție (profesor de istorie) care ne oferă un regal de informații atât gastro cât și istorice. Poveștile ei despre acadieni populație (de origine franceză), stabilită în regiunea denumită azi Acadiana, cu aproximativ 200 de ani în urmă, sunt pline de gust și savoare căci sunt practice: vreți să știți ce este ”cracklin”? Ne oprim la ”Famous Food”, un local de familie unde patronul ne servește la micul dejun ”cracklin” adică jumări crocante de porc. Tot el ne delectează cu câteva melodii interpretate la acordeon în stil... zydeco. Și ne mai servește și ”Boudin” adică mai pe limba noastră... caltaboș fiert sau prăjit. Aceasta este considerată mâncarea favorită a Sudului. Pentru a înțelege în profunzime ce înseamnă ”Laissez les bon temps rouler” suntem ghidați spre alte trei locații din cele peste 25 recomandate în acest ”Cajun Food Tours”. Primul stop în facem la ”Early’s food store”, un magazin unde poți servi zilnic, la prânz, în afară de preparate cracklin și boudin un burger special de pui și celebra lor plăcintă cu piersici. Ai timp să tragi cu ochiul spre vitrinele frigorifice ticsite cu semipreparate pentru acasă: pui umplut cajun, porc cajun & cârnați, jumări etc. Noi ne-am făcut plăcerea de a lua o cutie din condimentul minune al casei. Și ne-am convins de gustul său iute-smoked special. După atâta carne merge o cafea, așa că ne oprin la un local deschis special pentru noi în sfânta zi de duminică. La ”Papa T” unde avem parte de o demonstrație profesională a proprietarului care alături de cafea ne tratează cu ”bread puding” marca ”Papa T” foarte apreciată în zonă. Într-atât încât pentru zilele săptămânii, datorită supraaglomerării cererii e necesar să-ți faci anterior, programare. Deci, avantaj noi! Următorul respiro al turului îl facem la ”Carpe Diem” tot în Lafayette, unde testăm o înghețată ”home-maid”. De aici pornim spre Centrul de informare turistică al orașului de unde pornesc toate excursiile urbane ori în natură. Aici ne distrăm cu aromele emanate dintr-un dulap de bucătărie, unde fiecare sertar ori ușă deschisă degajă arome de condimente folosite la preparatele boudin și cracklin. Nu întâmplător Lafayette, ”inima cajun & creole a Louisianei” a primit numai în ultimii șase ani mai multe distincții pentru gastronomie. ”Best Food City 2011” (din partea USA Today), ”Diamonds in the Rough 2015” (Conde Nast Traveller), ”STS Top 20 Events 2016” (Scott Boudin and Gulf Brew) etc.
\r\nLa Randol adie briza Golfului Mexic
\r\nExperiențele acumulate ne-au pregătit pentru după-amiază cînd am vizitat unul dintre celebrele localuri din Louisiana. 40 de ani de tradiție, nimic fastuos la intrare dar memorabil din punct de vedere gastronomic în interior. ”Randol’s Restaurant & Cajun Dance Hall” este renumit pentru preparatele din fructe de mare, aduse zilnic din Golful Mexic. Frank Randol se mândrește cu echipa sa care a servit de-a lungul anilor vedete, oameni simpli, alături de președinți americani în exercițiu sau foști. Nu vă vom reproduce meniul dar merită să vă recomandăm dacă ajugeți pe urmele noastre: aligator prăjit, crab prăjit (și în toate formele), chiftele de crab albastru, scoici, creveți crocanți, produse din pui și porc etc. Lista vinurilor te trimite spre dealurile însorite din Franța, Argentina, Australia, Noua Zeelandă și, evident, California. De sutele de sortimentele de bere, nu mai vorbim. Dar merită să vorbim despre, surpriză, dimensiunile uriașe ale porțiilor servite. Așa e în America, totul e mare! Atmosferă ca în filmele alea bune, e susținută de o formație care cântă live, întotdeaua live, muzică zydeco, cajun, country. Cum puțină mișcare nu strică ringul de dans este în permanență plin. Imaginați-vă ceva simplu, atmosfera anilor ‘60 de la noi, bal la căminul cultural cu Semnal M. De aici vine tot farmecul. Mâncare de top servită în farfurii cu dimensiunile platourilor, pe fețe de masă în carouri roșii, cadru relaxat, oameni amabili etc. Apoi nu veți scăpa ocazia în momentul plecării să faceți la ieșire o fotografie călare pe un aligator din lemn. Firește... o operă de artă.
\r\nDespre cină v-am spus câte ceva. Dar ce-ați spune despre un mic dejun, servit a doua zi dimineață la ”Pat’s of Henderson”? Un local cochet care de 50 de ani oferă clienților crab au gratin, creveți umpluți, scoici înăbușite sau coapte, salate și cam tot ce vă doriți. Și evident condimentele și sosurile casei, sunt preparate într-o fabrică proprietate a familiei.
\r\nBayou Rum - tradiția s-a reînodat
\r\nȘi pentru că toate acestea trebuie stropite ne oprim la cea mai mare distilerie privată de rom din America. ”Romul este băutura care dă valoare produsului agricol” spun localnicii. Noi adăugăm că ne-a ajutat de minune să digerăm mai ușor mesele consumate. ”Bayou Rum” ne întâmpină cu o atnosferă modernă. Este o afacere nouă fondată în urmă cu 5 ani. Cu ajutorul ei a fost reînviată tradiția producerii romului din trestie de zahăr, resursă abundentă în zonă, ce datează din secolul al XVIII. Documentele atestă existența unor distilerii pe la 1751, cu o întrerupere în perioada războiului din 1861-1865 și apoi din 1919, când din cauza prohibiției producția de rom a fost sistată. O degustare a mărcilor fabricii precum și turul distileriei ne-au oferit prilejul de a remarca existența unei picturi murale cu peisaje din mlaștinile Louisianei, care se îmbina perfect cu tancurile și butoaiele unde se prelucrează și păstrează romul. Sortimentele oferite de gazde la testat s-au armonizat perfect cu o gustare tradițională: Darrell’s Poboy, celebrele sandvișuri în franzele, umplute cu... de toate. De la carne până la salăți. Ceea ce vă recomandă și dumneavoastră. După un asemenea tur gastronomic avem o recomandare. Singurul antidot este... fuga în natură. Pe curând.

\r\n Bratislava este una dintre cele patru capitale europene străbătute de Dunăre, ceea ce-i conferă un flux turistic însemat datorită navelor de croazieră ce străbat bătrânul fluviu. De pe Dunăre, se observă dealul şi castelul înconjurat de ziduri înalte, distrus de mai multe ori din momentul construcţiei sale în secolul al 17-lea şi restaurat după cel de-al doilea război mondial. Castelul a intrat în circuitul turistic şi poate vizitat în cursul unui tur pietonal prin centrul vechi al oraşului. Mergând la pas prin Bratislava, veţi descoperi clădiri cu o arhitectură clasică, construcţii în stil Art Nouveau sau construcţii hipermoderniste, precum clădirea radioteleviziunii, care are forma unei piramide cu vârful în jos. Tot la categoria curiozităţi putem încadra turnul de pe noul pod care leagă cele două maluri ale oraşului, turn în vârful căruia, la aproape 100 de metri înălţime, se află o construcţie asemănătoare unei nave spaţiale, de unde poate fi admirată panorama Bratislavei şi a împrejurimilor ei. Nu întâmplător i se spune „UFO”! În oraşul vechi aveți nevoie de cel puţin câteva ore ca să intraţi în atmosfera Bratislavei. Dacă ajungeţi în acest oraș, trebuie să degustaţi o bere locală. Este posibil chiar şi pe un restaurant plutitor, ancorat pe malul Dunării, pe a cărui punte inferioară funcţionează o fabrică de bere. Mirosul tipic, de fermentaţie, ajunge la nările clienţilor aflaţi pe puntea superioară, acolo unde se află restaurantul. Preţuri surprinzătoare, în mod plăcut! O halbă de bere de o bună calitate, bere produsă chiar pe acel vas, costă 1,9 euro.\r\n\r\nDar mai interesante par împrejurimile capitalei Slovaciei.

Nu numai dragostea ci și istoria gastronomiei trece prin stomac. Unde bate ”inima cajun & creole a Louisianei”? Ce gust are friptura de aligator!
\r\nVreți să aflați mai mult? Nu ezitați să ne însoțiți într-o nouă aventură americană. De data aceasta în Louisiana.
\r\nFrog City - o chestiune de marketing
\r\nBroaște pe toți pereții caselor. Când ai pătruns în inima sudului Louisianei și o iei înspre Lafayette n-ai cum să nu te oprești în ineditul Rayne - alias Frog City. Circa 8000 de locuitori sunt risipiți pe o suprafață de cam 10 kilometri pătrați. Un orășel, ce seamănă cu un studiou cinematografic hollyvoodian, ce are toți pereții clădirilor din zona centrală pictați cu... broaște. Cum s-a ajuns aici! Pe la 1860 localitatea avea cam 600 de locuitori care trăiau în vecinătatea unei zone foarte umede (denumită de americani bayou) foarte bogată în... broaște. Cine a făcut-o celebră? Trei întreprinzători de origine franceză, chef Donac Pucheu și mai apoi frații Weil pe la 1880, încep comerțul extrem de inedit și profitabil cu celebre delicatese ”picioare de broască”. Odată servite în faimosul restaurant new-yorkez Sardi’s ele transformă orașul în ceea ce se numește azi Frog City, denumit ulterior Capitala Mondială a Broaștelor. Ăsta da marketing turistic de destinație!Dar până acolo a fost nevoie de oameni destupați la minte. Producția și livrările au început să duduie. Localnicii au răspuns cu entuziasm acestei nesperate celebrități. Ei au apelat la un artist în vogă Robert Dafford, căruia i-au comandat să decoreze strada principală cu picturi cu batracieni executate manual.
\r\nAnul 1946 consolidează reputația localității căci la inițiativa Lyons Club are loc primul Derby al broaștelor la care se atribuie titluri ca ”Frogambasador” sau ”Monsieur Jacques”.

Nu întâmplător Lafayette, ”inima cajun & creole a Louisianei” a primit numai în ultimii șase ani mai multe distincții pentru gastronomie. ”Best Food City 2011” (din partea USA Today), ”Diamonds in the Rough 2015” (Conde Nast Traveller), ”STS Top 20 Events 2016” (Scott Boudin and Gulf Brew) etc.
\r\nLa Randol adie briza Golfului Mexic
\r\nExperiențele acumulate ne-au pregătit pentru după-amiază cînd am vizitat unul dintre celebrele localuri din Louisiana. 40 de ani de tradiție, nimic fastuos la intrare dar memorabil din punct de vedere gastronomic în interior. ”Randol’s Restaurant & Cajun Dance Hall” este renumit pentru preparatele din fructe de mare, aduse zilnic din Golful Mexic. Frank Randol se mândrește cu echipa sa care a servit de-a lungul anilor vedete, oameni simpli, alături de președinți americani în exercițiu sau foști. Nu vă vom reproduce meniul dar merită să vă recomandăm dacă ajugeți pe urmele noastre: aligator prăjit, crab prăjit (și în toate formele), chiftele de crab albastru, scoici, creveți crocanți, produse din pui și porc etc. Lista vinurilor te trimite spre dealurile însorite din Franța, Argentina, Australia, Noua Zeelandă și, evident, California. De sutele de sortimentele de bere, nu mai vorbim. Dar merită să vorbim despre, surpriză, dimensiunile uriașe ale porțiilor servite. Așa e în America, totul e mare! Atmosferă ca în filmele alea bune, e susținută de o formație care cântă live, întotdeaua live, muzică zydeco, cajun, country. Cum puțină mișcare nu strică ringul de dans este în permanență plin. Imaginați-vă ceva simplu, atmosfera anilor ‘60 de la noi, bal la căminul cultural cu Semnal M. De aici vine tot farmecul. Mâncare de top servită în farfurii cu dimensiunile platourilor, pe fețe de masă în carouri roșii, cadru relaxat, oameni amabili etc. Apoi nu veți scăpa ocazia în momentul plecării să faceți la ieșire o fotografie călare pe un aligator din lemn. Firește... o operă de artă.
\r\nDespre cină v-am spus câte ceva. Dar ce-ați spune despre un mic dejun, servit a doua zi dimineață la ”Pat’s of Henderson”? Un local cochet care de 50 de ani oferă clienților crab au gratin, creveți umpluți, scoici înăbușite sau coapte, salate și cam tot ce vă doriți. Și evident condimentele și sosurile casei, sunt preparate într-o fabrică proprietate a familiei.
\r\nBayou Rum - tradiția s-a reînodat
\r\nȘi pentru că toate acestea trebuie stropite ne oprim la cea mai mare distilerie privată de rom din America. ”Romul este băutura care dă valoare produsului agricol” spun localnicii. Noi adăugăm că ne-a ajutat de minune să digerăm mai ușor mesele consumate. ”Bayou Rum” ne întâmpină cu o atnosferă modernă. Este o afacere nouă fondată în urmă cu 5 ani. Cu ajutorul ei a fost reînviată tradiția producerii romului din trestie de zahăr, resursă abundentă în zonă, ce datează din secolul al XVIII. Documentele atestă existența unor distilerii pe la 1751, cu o întrerupere în perioada războiului din 1861-1865 și apoi din 1919, când din cauza prohibiției producția de rom a fost sistată. O degustare a mărcilor fabricii precum și turul distileriei ne-au oferit prilejul de a remarca existența unei picturi murale cu peisaje din mlaștinile Louisianei, care se îmbina perfect cu tancurile și butoaiele unde se prelucrează și păstrează romul. Sortimentele oferite de gazde la testat s-au armonizat perfect cu o gustare tradițională: Darrell’s Poboy, celebrele sandvișuri în franzele, umplute cu... de toate. De la carne până la salăți. Ceea ce vă recomandă și dumneavoastră. După un asemenea tur gastronomic avem o recomandare. Singurul antidot este... fuga în natură. Pe curând.

Geologic vorbind, povestea pietrelor care cresc a început cu peste 7 milioane de ani când, spun specialiștii, în zona Costești, unde se află astăzi Muzeul Trovanților exista un vechi fluviu ce și-a creat o deltă în care s-au depus sedimente speciale. Ele au contribuit la crearea unor ”bulgări” de nisip și pietriș. Pietrele care cresc ar fi fost denumite de localnici Trovanți. Tot atât de adevărat este că termenul „trovant” a fost introdus în literatura geologică de către Gh. Murgoci ce l-a folosit în lucrarea „Terțiarul din Oltenia, 1907”. Procesul continuă şi astăzi în interiorul muntelui de nisip şi pietriş de la Costeşti. Prima locație se află pe partea stângă a șoselei ce leagă Râmnicu Vâlcea de Horezu, înainte de intrarea în satul Costești. Într-un spațiu de 100 metri pătrați se află mai mulți trovanți, de diferite forme, unii de cîteva kilograme, alții de câteva tone, în poziții dintre cele mai inedite. De la Costești se poate ajunge la a doua locație mergând pe jos de la panoul informativ, cu date despre acest loc.

Lucru magic, în România trovanții ”trăiesc” și în vecinătatea altor așezări și zone. În afară de cei de la Costești (județul Vâlcea) îi puteți întâlni în cel puțin 12 locații. Din Dealul Feleacului (lângă Cluj Napoca), Munții Buzăului (la Ulmet), Sibiu (în satul Cașolț), până la Bacău (pe malul stâng al Tazlăului și pe malul stâng al Siretului, în dreptul localității Cornii de Sus), în Munții Berzunți (lângă satul Viișoara), în Călărași aproape de malul Dunării, în nivele nisipoase-argiloase din Munții Mezeș etc.
\r\nCei mai cunoscuți trovanți rămân însă cei de la Costești. În urmă cu mai bine de 10 ani aici a fost înființată Rezervația Naturală Muzeul Trovanților, administrată de către Asociația Kogayon, o organizație nonguvernamentală specializată pe protecția mediului. Rezervația este situată în sudul comunei, lângă Drumul Național 67 Râmnicu Vâlcea-Târgu Jiu. Are o suprafață de peste un hectar și a fost constituită ca rezervație geologică. Deci, atenție, Muzeul este arie protejată. „Costeștiul e singurul loc din Europa unde a fost amenajat un asemenea parc pentru aceste formațiuni geologice. Trovanții de aici sunt impresionanți prin dimensiunea lor, de la doi-trei centimetri până la aproximativ cinci metri, dar și prin forma lor” - sublinia unul dintre reprezentanții Asociației Kogayon. De aceea muzeul a beneficiat și de finanțări europene pentru conservarea și cercetarea acestui spațiu natural fantastic.
\r\nÎntrebarea care fascinează în continuare zecile de mii de vizitatori care trec anual pe aici rămâne aceeași. Cresc într-adevăr pietrele? Se mișcă ele cu adevărat? Răspunsul este de două ori da. Cresc prin depunerile care pot atinge 4-5 centimetri în circa 1200 de ani. Așa că, mai în glumă mai în serios, puteți observa acest proces și cu... ochiul liber. Și atunci când cresc firește, se... mișcă. Recomandarea noastră - nu ratați o asemenea experiență.

După 12 ani la agenția Perfect Tour, perioadă în care a a urcat până la poziția de top-management Sorin Văduvoiu, a acceptat oferta de a prelua conducerea companiei Business Travel Turism. „M-am îndreptat spre acest parteneriat pentru că valorile grupului și ale celor doi acționari, Paula Dobrescu și Gabriel Dumitroiu, se potrivesc cel mai bine cu valorile în care cred” - a declarat Văduvoiu. Noul manager activează de 16 ani în turism. Business Travel Turism se situeaza printre primele zece agenții din travel-ul românesc după cifra de afaceri, înregistrând anul trecut un volum de peste 73 milioane de lei. În 2015, Business Travel Turism a semnat un parteneriat cu grupul britanic ATPI, unul dintre liderii mondiali în domeniul organizării de evenimente și management turistic.

\r\nDANIEL TRUICĂ: ”Este mai avantajos să mergi cu avionul decât cu trenul !” \r\n\r\nAceasta este concluzia la care au ajuns specialiștii de la Vola.ro. Conform unei cercetări cererea de bilete de avion pe rutele interne a crescut în ultimul an cu aproximativ 200%. După estimările Vola.ro, deja există orașe din România spre care sunt șanse foarte mari să fie mai avantajoasă o călătorie cu avionul decât cu trenul. Timișoara, Cluj-Napoca și Iași sunt cele mai solicitate destinații interne, cu plecare din București. Până în urmă cu 3 ani, Timișoara conducea indubitabil la acest capitol, inclusiv datorită hub-ului Carpatair.\r\n![\"Travel](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Travel-Daniel-Truica-Vola.ro-1.jpg\")
\r\n\r\n\r\nCluj-Napoca a crescut atât ca număr de zboruri cât și ca cerere din partea turiștilor. Un rol esențial l-au jucat evenimentele găzduite, dintre care cel mai mult s-a remarcat Untold, perioadă în care majoritatea zborurilor au fost pline. Prețul unui bilet de avion pe o rută internă începe de la 17 euro (bilet de avion dus-întors pe ruta București – Cluj-Napoca) și poate ajunge până la 195 euro (București-Oradea). Întărirea concurenței pe rutele interne a atras și scăderea prețurilor biletelor de avion. ”Astfel, putem vorbi acum despre prețuri cu până la 90% mai mici decât tarifele practicate în urmă cu 5 ani, la biletele de avion pentru rute interne. Ca urmare a scăderii prețurilor biletelor de avion, cele mai multe solicitări pentru rutele interne au venit în acest an în luna august și septembrie, iar cea mai puțin solicitată lună a fost februarie” - a declarat Daniel Truică, CEO Vola.ro.\r\nMARA ANTON

Jumătate dintre aceștia au călătorit pe cursele touroperate de cea mai mare agenție din România., Astfel a fost atins un grad de ocupare a charterelor de 95% pe întreg sezonul. Destinațiile din Spania și Grecia (revelațiile verii) au înregistrat creșteri semnificative, Bulgaria a revenit în preferințele clienților agenției ( 6.000 de turiști în plus față de anul trecut) și, în ciuda evenimentelor din Turcia, numărul turiștilor ce s-au îndreptat spre această destinație a crescut de la 10 la aproape 25.000. Vedeta destinațiilor calde rămâne Dubay, un mixt foarte bun ce îmbină călătoriile de vacanță cu turismul cultural, cel de shopping și leasure. În acest context Christian Tour a anunțat că sezonul de vară a cunoscut o creștere de 20% a cifrei de afaceri. \r\n\r\nÎn topul celor mai îndrăgite destinații, pe primul loc se află Antalya, urmată de Creta, Corfu, Zakynthos și stațiunile din Bulgaria. „Suntem deja foarte aproape de cifra de afaceri pe care am estimat-o pentru 2016 şi anume 75 de milioane de euro. În acest sezon au fost foarte căutate circuitele către Elveţia, Cehia, Italia, Anglia, Israel, Croația, Spania sau Țările Scandinave. Celor 200.000 de turiști care au călătorit cu noi până în septembrie li se vor adăuga clienții din sezonul toamnă-iarnă, care au anul acesta la dispoziție pachete speciale: Dubai, schi, Senior Voyage și Winter Sun (creat special pentru amatorii de vacanțe în locuri exotice), dar și piețele de Crăciun sau Revelionul” ne-a declarat Marius Pandel, CEO Christian Tour. \r\n
La rândul lor directorii a 3 Reprezentanțe ale Diviziei Christian Tour International (din Republica Moldova - Eugenia Alexa, Serbia - Zdravka Majnik și Polonia - Mariusz Raban) au completat tabloul de travel al componenței structurii turistice din 2016, respectiv al destinațiilor preferate de călătorii din aceste țări care au apelat la serviciile grupului românesc. În Republica Moldova au mers foarte bine vânzările pe Grecia, asta și datorită cursei charter Chișinău-Corfu, lansată în premieră; de asemenea și în Serbia și Polonia, în cea din urmă vedete fiind Rodos, Corfu și Zakynthos.
\r\nDincolo de această sinteză la recenta conferință de presă staff-ul Christian Tour a anunțat lansarea pentru 2017 a pachetelor Early Booking, cu importante componente de discounturi și reduceri (ce pot ajunge până la 50%). Știrea cea mai bine cotată a fost lansarea în premieră absolută, de anul viitor, a cursei charter directe spre Gran Canaria. ”Spania a atras un număr mare de turişti români pe durata sezonului estival. Stimulată de apetitul turiștilor pentru vacanțele în spațiul cultural iberic, am pregătit turiștilor români o surpriză interesantă: charterul de Gran Canaria. Mai mult decât atât, pentru sezonul vară 2017 intenţionăm să includem în oferta de sejur şi alte destinaţii inedite, precum: Italia (zonele Calabria, Rimini-Lido di Jesolo şi Sicilia), plus Croaţia şi Muntenegru. Acestea sunt destinaţii tot mai solicitate de către turiştii noştri” a mai subliniat Marius Pandel.\r\n\r\nMai mult Christian Tour a anunțat că va promova și pentru anul viitor tarife similare ultimului sezon. Preferințele românilor pentru vacanțe se îndreaptă în continuare spre destinații charter cunoscute și hoteluri de 3 și 4 stele, cu servicii all inclusive. Acest tip de pachete este căutat, în mod special, de familiile cu copii”, a completat Nicolae Băjenică, directorul de vânzări al Christian Tour.\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n_____________________\r\n
\r\nVĂDUVOIU: ”Valorile BTT mi se potrivesc foarte bine !”
\r\nDupă 12 ani la agenția Perfect Tour, perioadă în care a a urcat până la poziția de top-management Sorin Văduvoiu, a acceptat oferta de a prelua conducerea companiei Business Travel Turism. „M-am îndreptat spre acest parteneriat pentru că valorile grupului și ale celor doi acționari, Paula Dobrescu și Gabriel Dumitroiu, se potrivesc cel mai bine cu valorile în care cred” - a declarat Văduvoiu. Noul manager activează de 16 ani în turism. Business Travel Turism se situeaza printre primele zece agenții din travel-ul românesc după cifra de afaceri, înregistrând anul trecut un volum de peste 73 milioane de lei. În 2015, Business Travel Turism a semnat un parteneriat cu grupul britanic ATPI, unul dintre liderii mondiali în domeniul organizării de evenimente și management turistic.

\r\nDANIEL TRUICĂ: ”Este mai avantajos să mergi cu avionul decât cu trenul !” \r\n\r\nAceasta este concluzia la care au ajuns specialiștii de la Vola.ro. Conform unei cercetări cererea de bilete de avion pe rutele interne a crescut în ultimul an cu aproximativ 200%. După estimările Vola.ro, deja există orașe din România spre care sunt șanse foarte mari să fie mai avantajoasă o călătorie cu avionul decât cu trenul. Timișoara, Cluj-Napoca și Iași sunt cele mai solicitate destinații interne, cu plecare din București. Până în urmă cu 3 ani, Timișoara conducea indubitabil la acest capitol, inclusiv datorită hub-ului Carpatair. Cluj-Napoca a crescut atât ca număr de zboruri cât și ca cerere din partea turiștilor. Un rol esențial l-au jucat evenimentele găzduite, dintre care cel mai mult s-a remarcat Untold, perioadă în care majoritatea zborurilor au fost pline. Prețul unui bilet de avion pe o rută internă începe de la 17 euro (bilet de avion dus-întors pe ruta București – Cluj-Napoca) și poate ajunge până la 195 euro (București-Oradea). Întărirea concurenței pe rutele interne a atras și scăderea prețurilor biletelor de avion. ”Astfel, putem vorbi acum despre prețuri cu până la 90% mai mici decât tarifele practicate în urmă cu 5 ani, la biletele de avion pentru rute interne. Ca urmare a scăderii prețurilor biletelor de avion, cele mai multe solicitări pentru rutele interne au venit în acest an în luna august și septembrie, iar cea mai puțin solicitată lună a fost februarie” - a declarat Daniel Truică, CEO Vola.ro.\r\nMARA ANTON

\r\nDANIEL TRUICĂ: ”Este mai avantajos să mergi cu avionul decât cu trenul !” \r\n\r\nAceasta este concluzia la care au ajuns specialiștii de la Vola.ro. Conform unei cercetări cererea de bilete de avion pe rutele interne a crescut în ultimul an cu aproximativ 200%. După estimările Vola.ro, deja există orașe din România spre care sunt șanse foarte mari să fie mai avantajoasă o călătorie cu avionul decât cu trenul. Timișoara, Cluj-Napoca și Iași sunt cele mai solicitate destinații interne, cu plecare din București. Până în urmă cu 3 ani, Timișoara conducea indubitabil la acest capitol, inclusiv datorită hub-ului Carpatair.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCluj-Napoca a crescut atât ca număr de zboruri cât și ca cerere din partea turiștilor. Un rol esențial l-au jucat evenimentele găzduite, dintre care cel mai mult s-a remarcat Untold, perioadă în care majoritatea zborurilor au fost pline. Prețul unui bilet de avion pe o rută internă începe de la 17 euro (bilet de avion dus-întors pe ruta București – Cluj-Napoca) și poate ajunge până la 195 euro (București-Oradea). Întărirea concurenței pe rutele interne a atras și scăderea prețurilor biletelor de avion. ”Astfel, putem vorbi acum despre prețuri cu până la 90% mai mici decât tarifele practicate în urmă cu 5 ani, la biletele de avion pentru rute interne. Ca urmare a scăderii prețurilor biletelor de avion, cele mai multe solicitări pentru rutele interne au venit în acest an în luna august și septembrie, iar cea mai puțin solicitată lună a fost februarie” - a declarat Daniel Truică, CEO Vola.ro.\r\nMARA ANTON

Care cresc în fiecare an. Care se mișcă în fiecare anotimp. Nu după soare ci după dune de nisip. Unele dintre ele alunecă de pe dealuri iar prin rostogolire capătă forme aproape... umane.\r\n
\r\n\r\nPar trupuri de copii, de adolscenți, iar dacă ai o imaginație bogată poți vedea siluetele unor nuduri feminine sau chiar ale unor extratereștrii. Armate de pietre care au plecat se plimbă prin istorie de peste 100 de milioane de ani de pe vremea când Oltenia de azi era acoperită de ape. Geologic vorbind, povestea pietrelor care cresc a început cu peste 7 milioane de ani când, spun specialiștii, în zona Costești, unde se află astăzi Muzeul Trovanților exista un vechi fluviu ce și-a creat o deltă în care s-au depus sedimente speciale. Ele au contribuit la crearea unor ”bulgări” de nisip și pietriș. Pietrele care cresc ar fi fost denumite de localnici Trovanți. Tot atât de adevărat este că termenul „trovant” a fost introdus în literatura geologică de către Gh. Murgoci ce l-a folosit în lucrarea „Terțiarul din Oltenia, 1907”. Procesul continuă şi astăzi în interiorul muntelui de nisip şi pietriş de la Costeşti. Prima locație se află pe partea stângă a șoselei ce leagă Râmnicu Vâlcea de Horezu, înainte de intrarea în satul Costești. Într-un spațiu de 100 metri pătrați se află mai mulți trovanți, de diferite forme, unii de cîteva kilograme, alții de câteva tone, în poziții dintre cele mai inedite. De la Costești se poate ajunge la a doua locație mergând pe jos de la panoul informativ, cu date despre acest loc. Ce-a de-a doua e cea mai spectaculoasă, este de-a lungul pârâului, apă care se varsă într-un râu de lângă satul Oteșani aflat circa 16 kilometri de Horezu.\r\n
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5354,5355,5356,5353\"]\r\n\r\n
Lucru magic, în România trovanții ”trăiesc” și în vecinătatea altor așezări și zone. În afară de cei de la Costești (județul Vâlcea) îi puteți întâlni în cel puțin 12 locații. Din Dealul Feleacului (lângă Cluj Napoca), Munții Buzăului (la Ulmet), Sibiu (în satul Cașolț), până la Bacău (pe malul stâng al Tazlăului și pe malul stâng al Siretului, în dreptul localității Cornii de Sus), în Munții Berzunți (lângă satul Viișoara), în Călărași aproape de malul Dunării, în nivele nisipoase-argiloase din Munții Mezeș etc.
\r\nCei mai cunoscuți trovanți rămân însă cei de la Costești. În urmă cu mai bine de 10 ani aici a fost înființată Rezervația Naturală Muzeul Trovanților, administrată de către Asociația Kogayon, o organizație nonguvernamentală specializată pe protecția mediului. Rezervația este situată în sudul comunei, lângă Drumul Național 67 Râmnicu Vâlcea-Târgu Jiu. Are o suprafață de peste un hectar și a fost constituită ca rezervație geologică. Deci, atenție, Muzeul este arie protejată. „Costeștiul e singurul loc din Europa unde a fost amenajat un asemenea parc pentru aceste formațiuni geologice. Trovanții de aici sunt impresionanți prin dimensiunea lor, de la doi-trei centimetri până la aproximativ cinci metri, dar și prin forma lor” - sublinia unul dintre reprezentanții Asociației Kogayon. De aceea muzeul a beneficiat și de finanțări europene pentru conservarea și cercetarea acestui spațiu natural fantastic.
\r\nÎntrebarea care fascinează în continuare zecile de mii de vizitatori care trec anual pe aici rămâne aceeași. Cresc într-adevăr pietrele? Se mișcă ele cu adevărat? Răspunsul este de două ori da. Cresc prin depunerile care pot atinge 4-5 centimetri în circa 1200 de ani. Așa că, mai în glumă mai în serios, puteți observa acest proces și cu... ochiul liber. Și atunci când cresc firește, se... mișcă. Recomandarea noastră - nu ratați o asemenea experiență.

Ştefan Baciu, Preşedintele Clubului Presei\n\nde Turism – FIJET România, a fost ales în Comitetul Executiv al FIJET, ală turi de alţi 6 membri: Salah Attia (Egipt), Delal Atamdede (Turcia), Maria del Mar Garcia Aguilo (Spania), Plamen Starev (Bulgaria), Natalya Tarasenko (Rusia) şi Tina Cubrilo (Croaţia). Colegul şi partenerul nostru Ştefan Baciu este jurnalistla Radio România Interna ţional (RRI). După partea oficială, conform tradiţiei, jurnaliştii de turism au fost\n\ninvitaţi să descopere o parte din atracţiile oraşului.\n\nCehov şi patrimonii UNESCO!\n\n„Oricine vrea să înţeleagă Rusia ar trebui să vină aici\n\nşi să privească, în jos, spre Moscova”. Cehov scria\n\naceste cuvinte admirând panorama oferită privirii de pe\n\ndealurile Sparow, cel mai înalt punct al râului Moscova,\n\npe care se află amplasat oraşul. Şi, da, doar ajungând\n\nla Moscova poţi înţelege profunzimea sufletului slav. O\n\nmetropolă modernă, cu circa 13 milioane de locuitori,\n\nMoscova te aruncă în braţele unor zone imense de la\n\nprimul pas: artere de circulaţie cu 4-6 benzi pe sens,\n\nbulevarde interminabile, construcţii care te reduc la sta -\n\ntutul unei furnici, 118 parcuri şi arii protejate pe zeci şi sute\n\nde hectare, catedrale care îţi fură privirile cu aurul cupo -\n\nlelor, o reţea de metrou cu 194 de staţii. 44 dintre ele\n\nsunt declarate monumente de patrimoniu. 450 de muzee,\n\nhoteluri cu mii de camere... Şi peste aceste vastităţi,\n\ncerul cu toanele sale de ploi şi vânturi sau un soare stră -\n\nlucitor ca un tăiş de sabie! Nu ai cum să nu realizezi că\n\naceastă lume este altceva. Şi mai ales localnicii care te\n\najută să te simţi mai confortabil într-o asemenea metro-\n\npolă prin simplitatea şi căldura arătată când îţi sar în\n\najutor cu informaţii. Sau pur şi simplu cu zâmbetul calm\n\ncând îţi percep dezorientarea pe chip în oraşul ce te\n\nciteşte de când ai ieşit din aeroportul internaţional.\n\nDocumentar vorbind, oraşul a fost menţionat în 1147 iar\n\nîn 1156 Yuri Dolgoruky a dispus construirea unei fortăreţe \n\nla confluenţa râurilor Moscova cu Neglinnaia. Aşa a\n\nînceput formarea statului centralizat rus la sfârşitul seco -\n\nlului al XV-lea Moscova devenind capitala sa. Şi de aici\n\ncurge timpul şi povestea lui. Fortăreaţa din lemn era\n\nKremlinul. Din acest punct a început totul! Kremlinul şi Piaţa\n\nRoşie, amplasate pe malul stâng al râului Moscova,\n\nsunt embleme şi inima istorică a metropolei. Accesul pu -\n\nblicului a survenit de abia după 1955. Ca o curiozitate\n\nansamblul arhitectonic a scăpat de bombarda mentele\n\nprovocate Moscovei în cel de-al Doilea Război Mon -\n\ndial de germani deoarece a fost camuflat printr-un truc\n\noptic astfel încât să arate ca nişte străzi de periferie iar\n\ngiganticele stele roşii din vârfurile turnurilor au fost de -\n\nmontate. Întreg ansamblul de monumente aflate între zi -\n\ndurile fortificaţiilor face parte din patrimoniul UNESCO.\n\nŢarul avea şi tun şi clopote\n\nAccesul se face printr-o poartă uriaşă – Borovitsky –,\n\niar după ce treci de Palatul Patriarhal şi alte clădiri\n\nadministrative te laşi vrăjit de poveştile „spuse” de Tunul\n\nŢarului, construit din bronz în 1586 şi aflat în Guiness\n\nBook, ale cărui ghiulele cântăreau 200 de kilograme,\n\ntun ce nu a fost utilizat niciodată. Sau „Clopotul Ţarului”,\n\nconstruit la cererea împărătesei Anna Ivanovna, ce\n\ncântăreşte nu mai puţin de 202 tone. Sunetul şi vibraţia\n\nlui nu au fost auzite vreodată căci a crăpat într-un incen -\n\ndiu în 1737. În 1836 a fost pus pe un soclu devenind\n\nun loc de pelerinaj... fotografic. Bucata desprinsă din el\n\ncântăreşte nu mai puţin de 11,5 tone. Ambele exponate,\n\nsplendid lucrate, sunt capodopere ale geniului artistic al\n\nepocii. Şi nu poţi să nu te înfiori când pătrunzi în Cate -\n\ndrala în care se încoronau ţarii, proiectată de arhitectul\n\nitalian Aristotele Fiorovanti la sfârşitul secolului al XV-lea\n\nsau când vezi mormântul lui Ivan cel Groaznic, aflat în\n\nCatedrala Sf. Arhanghel Mihail, patronul spiritual al\n\nmilitarilor. Marele Turn al Clopotelor, cu înălţimea de 81\n\nde metri a fost timp de două sute de ani cea mai înaltă\n\nconstrucţie din Moscova. A fost ridicat în anul 1600 de\n\ncătre Boris Godunov iar în prezent adăposteşte un\n\nmuzeu multimedia dedicat istoriei Kremlinului precum şi\n\no platformă de „bella vista”.\n\nSub stejarul lui Iuri Gagarin\n\nDacă nu este prea aglomerat – nu vă faceţi iluzii că\n\nveţi prinde aşa ceva chiar dacă vă consideraţi norocoşi –,\n\nîncercaţi să vizitaţi Muzeul Armelor (organizat prin 1806)\n\nsau colecţia Tezaurului, ambele cuprinzând valori ines -\n\ntimabile. După un asemenea maraton, minim 3 ore vă\n\ntrebuie doar să vă familiarizaţi cu obiectivele arhitec -\n\nturale –, un repaos pe o bancă e binevenită. Dar n-aţi\n\nscăpat. Când veţi ridica privirea veţi întâlni într-un colţ al\n\ngrădinii Kremlinului silueta măreaţă a stejarului plantat în\n\ncinstea lui Iuri Gagarin, primul om care a zbu rat în spa -\n\nţiul cosmic. Din nou istorie, din nou fotografii. Şi un nou\n\nsalt pe sub o altă poartă cu turn prin care dai direct în\n\nPiaţa Roşie. Aici rămâi captivat de „Catedrala de\n\nbezea”, cum o răsfaţă ruşii şi nu numai ei, silueta simbol\n\na Catedralei Sf. Vasile (foto coperta). O bijuterie arhi -\n\ntec turală con struită între 1555-1561 în perioada lui Ivan\n\ncel Groaznic. Dar nu a fost întotdeaua aşa de colorată\n\nşi cu forme atât de surprin zătoare. Zidurile de cărămidă\n\nroşie şi caldarâmul din piatră cubică, o încadrează\n\nsever. Ai în faţă de fapt noua biserică cu o fun daţie\n\ncomună, Biserica Sf. Vasile fiind cel de-al zecelea lăcaş,\n\nridicat în 1588. Întreg ansamblul este o închinare adusă\n\nMaicii Domnului, simbolul Moscovei dar şi al întregii Rusii.\n\nLenin, Kilometrul 0\n\nşi Flacăra Veşnică\n\nUndeva pe stânga se află şi celebrul, în alte vremuri,\n\nmausoleu al lui Lenin, ieşit şi revenit în sfera de interes a\n\nturistului contemporan. Asta pentru că istoria se hrăneşte\n\ncu istorie şi astfel îşi regenerează interesul. Important,\n\naici se află marcat şi „Kilometrul 0” al Federaţiei Ruse,\n\nla poarta dublă Iverskiye prin care se ajunge la\n\nGrădina Alexandru, locul preferat pentru plimbări al\n\nmoscoviţilor. La picioarele lor se află zece hectare de\n\nverdeaţă, dar şi Mormântul Soldatului Necunoscut şi\n\nFlacăra Veşnică, vegheate de garda, a cărui schimburi\n\nau devenit, cum altfel, atracţie turistică.

Aşa a\r\n\r\nînceput formarea statului centralizat rus la sfârşitul seco -\r\n\r\nlului al XV-lea Moscova devenind capitala sa. Şi de aici\r\n\r\ncurge timpul şi povestea lui. Fortăreaţa din lemn era\r\n\r\nKremlinul. Din acest punct a început totul! Kremlinul şi Piaţa\r\n\r\nRoşie, amplasate pe malul stâng al râului Moscova,\r\n\r\nsunt embleme şi inima istorică a metropolei. Accesul pu -\r\n\r\nblicului a survenit de abia după 1955. Ca o curiozitate\r\n\r\nansamblul arhitectonic a scăpat de bombarda mentele\r\n\r\nprovocate Moscovei în cel de-al Doilea Război Mon -\r\n\r\ndial de germani deoarece a fost camuflat printr-un truc\r\n\r\noptic astfel încât să arate ca nişte străzi de periferie iar\r\n\r\ngiganticele stele roşii din vârfurile turnurilor au fost de -\r\n\r\nmontate. Întreg ansamblul de monumente aflate între zi -\r\n\r\ndurile fortificaţiilor face parte din patrimoniul UNESCO.\r\n\r\nŢarul avea şi tun şi clopote\r\n\r\nAccesul se face printr-o poartă uriaşă – Borovitsky –,\r\n\r\niar după ce treci de Palatul Patriarhal şi alte clădiri\r\n\r\nadministrative te laşi vrăjit de poveştile „spuse” de Tunul\r\n\r\nŢarului, construit din bronz în 1586 şi aflat în Guiness\r\n\r\nBook, ale cărui ghiulele cântăreau 200 de kilograme,\r\n\r\ntun ce nu a fost utilizat niciodată. Sau „Clopotul Ţarului”,\r\n\r\nconstruit la cererea împărătesei Anna Ivanovna, ce\r\n\r\ncântăreşte nu mai puţin de 202 tone. Sunetul şi vibraţia\r\n\r\nlui nu au fost auzite vreodată căci a crăpat într-un incen -\r\n\r\ndiu în 1737. În 1836 a fost pus pe un soclu devenind\r\n\r\nun loc de pelerinaj... fotografic. Bucata desprinsă din el\r\n\r\ncântăreşte nu mai puţin de 11,5 tone. Ambele exponate,\r\n\r\nsplendid lucrate, sunt capodopere ale geniului artistic al\r\n\r\nepocii. Şi nu poţi să nu te înfiori când pătrunzi în Cate -\r\n\r\ndrala în care se încoronau ţarii, proiectată de arhitectul\r\n\r\nitalian Aristotele Fiorovanti la sfârşitul secolului al XV-lea\r\n\r\nsau când vezi mormântul lui Ivan cel Groaznic, aflat în\r\n\r\nCatedrala Sf. Arhanghel Mihail, patronul spiritual al\r\n\r\nmilitarilor. Marele Turn al Clopotelor, cu înălţimea de 81\r\n\r\nde metri a fost timp de două sute de ani cea mai înaltă\r\n\r\nconstrucţie din Moscova. A fost ridicat în anul 1600 de\r\n\r\ncătre Boris Godunov iar în prezent adăposteşte un\r\n\r\nmuzeu multimedia dedicat istoriei Kremlinului precum şi\r\n\r\no platformă de „bella vista”.\r\n\r\nSub stejarul lui Iuri Gagarin\r\n\r\nDacă nu este prea aglomerat – nu vă faceţi iluzii că\r\n\r\nveţi prinde aşa ceva chiar dacă vă consideraţi norocoşi –,\r\n\r\nîncercaţi să vizitaţi Muzeul Armelor (organizat prin 1806)\r\n\r\nsau colecţia Tezaurului, ambele cuprinzând valori ines -\r\n\r\ntimabile. După un asemenea maraton, minim 3 ore vă\r\n\r\ntrebuie doar să vă familiarizaţi cu obiectivele arhitec -\r\n\r\nturale –, un repaos pe o bancă e binevenită. Dar n-aţi\r\n\r\nscăpat. Când veţi ridica privirea veţi întâlni într-un colţ al\r\n\r\ngrădinii Kremlinului silueta măreaţă a stejarului plantat în\r\n\r\ncinstea lui Iuri Gagarin, primul om care a zbu rat în spa -\r\n\r\nţiul cosmic. Din nou istorie, din nou fotografii. Şi un nou\r\n\r\nsalt pe sub o altă poartă cu turn prin care dai direct în\r\n\r\nPiaţa Roşie. Aici rămâi captivat de „Catedrala de\r\n\r\nbezea”, cum o răsfaţă ruşii şi nu numai ei, silueta simbol\r\n\r\na Catedralei Sf. Vasile (foto coperta). O bijuterie arhi -\r\n\r\ntec turală con struită între 1555-1561 în perioada lui Ivan\r\n\r\ncel Groaznic. Dar nu a fost întotdeaua aşa de colorată\r\n\r\nşi cu forme atât de surprin zătoare. Zidurile de cărămidă\r\n\r\nroşie şi caldarâmul din piatră cubică, o încadrează\r\n\r\nsever. Ai în faţă de fapt noua biserică cu o fun daţie\r\n\r\ncomună, Biserica Sf. Vasile fiind cel de-al zecelea lăcaş,\r\n\r\nridicat în 1588. Întreg ansamblul este o închinare adusă\r\n\r\nMaicii Domnului, simbolul Moscovei dar şi al întregii Rusii.\r\n\r\nLenin, Kilometrul 0\r\n\r\nşi Flacăra Veşnică\r\n\r\nUndeva pe stânga se află şi celebrul, în alte vremuri,\r\n\r\nmausoleu al lui Lenin, ieşit şi revenit în sfera de interes a\r\n\r\nturistului contemporan. Asta pentru că istoria se hrăneşte\r\n\r\ncu istorie şi astfel îşi regenerează interesul. Important,\r\n\r\naici se află marcat şi „Kilometrul 0” al Federaţiei Ruse,\r\n\r\nla poarta dublă Iverskiye prin care se ajunge la\r\n\r\nGrădina Alexandru, locul preferat pentru plimbări al\r\n\r\nmoscoviţilor. La picioarele lor se află zece hectare de\r\n\r\nverdeaţă, dar şi Mormântul Soldatului Necunoscut şi\r\n\r\nFlacăra Veşnică, vegheate de garda, a cărui schimburi\r\n\r\nau devenit, cum altfel, atracţie turistică. Istorie vie este\r\n\r\nclădirea celui mai vechi centru comercial al Moscovei,\r\n\r\nce adăposteşte galeriile GUM construite la finele\r\n\r\nsecolului al XIX-lea.

\nVreți să aflați mai mult? Nu ezitați să ne însoțiți într-o nouă aventură americană. De data aceasta în Louisiana.\n\n
Frog City - o chestiune de marketing
\nBroaște pe toți pereții caselor. Când ai pătruns în inima sudului Louisianei și o iei înspre Lafayette n-ai cum să nu te oprești în ineditul Rayne - alias Frog City. Circa 8000 de locuitori sunt risipiți pe o suprafață de cam 10 kilometri pătrați. Un orășel, ce seamănă cu un studiou cinematografic hollyvoodian, ce are toți pereții clădirilor din zona centrală pictați cu... broaște. Cum s-a ajuns aici! Pe la 1860 localitatea avea cam 600 de locuitori care trăiau în vecinătatea unei zone foarte umede (denumită de americani bayou) foarte bogată în... broaște. Cine a făcut-o celebră? Trei întreprinzători de origine franceză, chef Donac Pucheu și mai apoi frații Weil pe la 1880, încep comerțul extrem de inedit și profitabil cu celebre delicatese ”picioare de broască”. Odată servite în faimosul restaurant new-yorkez Sardi’s ele transformă orașul în ceea ce se numește azi Frog City, denumit ulterior Capitala Mondială a Broaștelor. Ăsta da marketing turistic de destinație!Dar până acolo a fost nevoie de oameni destupați la minte. Producția și livrările au început să duduie. Localnicii au răspuns cu entuziasm acestei nesperate celebrități. Ei au apelat la un artist în vogă Robert Dafford, căruia i-au comandat să decoreze strada principală cu picturi cu batracieni executate manual.
\n\nAnul 1946 consolidează reputația localității căci la inițiativa Lyons Club are loc primul Derby al broaștelor la care se atribuie titluri ca ”Frogambasador” sau ”Monsieur Jacques”. Festival a atins în prezent 44 de ediții. Este o plăcere, străbătând orașul, să te întâmpine peste tot statuete sau picturi cu broscuțe, marcaje, semne de circulație, suveniruri... A, da, și sediul ziarului local ”Rayne Tribune” al cărui prim număr ce datează din 1894, își datorează faima broscuțelor și mai ales jurnalistei Myrta Fair Craig care l-a condus până în 1994.
\nCracklin, în varianta Marie Ducote
\n…Și acum ”Allons Manger” căci scopul nostru este de a cunoaște bucătăria ”Cajun” și mai ales să aflăm gustul acestor preparate care onorează orașul Lafayette cu titlul de paradis gastronomic. Așa încât ne lăsăm conduși de Marie Ducote, un ghid de excepție (profesor de istorie) care ne oferă un regal de informații atât gastro cât și istorice. Poveștile ei despre acadieni populație (de origine franceză), stabilită în regiunea denumită azi Acadiana, cu aproximativ 200 de ani în urmă, sunt pline de gust și savoare căci sunt practice: vreți să știți ce este ”cracklin”? Ne oprim la ”Famous Food”, un local de familie unde patronul ne servește la micul dejun ”cracklin” adică jumări crocante de porc. Tot el ne delectează cu câteva melodii interpretate la acordeon în stil... zydeco. Și ne mai servește și ”Boudin” adică mai pe limba noastră... caltaboș fiert sau prăjit. Aceasta este considerată mâncarea favorită a Sudului. Pentru a înțelege în profunzime ce înseamnă ”Laissez les bon temps rouler” suntem ghidați spre alte trei locații din cele peste 25 recomandate în acest ”Cajun Food Tours”. Primul stop în facem la ”Early’s food store”, un magazin unde poți servi zilnic, la prânz, în afară de preparate cracklin și boudin un burger special de pui și celebra lor plăcintă cu piersici. Ai timp să tragi cu ochiul spre vitrinele frigorifice ticsite cu semipreparate pentru acasă: pui umplut cajun, porc cajun & cârnați, jumări etc. Noi ne-am făcut plăcerea de a lua o cutie din condimentul minune al casei. Și ne-am convins de gustul său iute-smoked special. După atâta carne merge o cafea, așa că ne oprin la un local deschis special pentru noi în sfânta zi de duminică. La ”Papa T” unde avem parte de o demonstrație profesională a proprietarului care alături de cafea ne tratează cu ”bread puding” marca ”Papa T” foarte apreciată în zonă. Într-atât încât pentru zilele săptămânii, datorită supraaglomerării cererii e necesar să-ți faci anterior, programare. Deci, avantaj noi! Următorul respiro al turului îl facem la ”Carpe Diem” tot în Lafayette, unde testăm o înghețată ”home-maid”. De aici pornim spre Centrul de informare turistică al orașului de unde pornesc toate excursiile urbane ori în natură. Aici ne distrăm cu aromele emanate dintr-un dulap de bucătărie, unde fiecare sertar ori ușă deschisă degajă arome de condimente folosite la preparatele boudin și cracklin. Nu întâmplător Lafayette, ”inima cajun & creole a Louisianei” a primit numai în ultimii șase ani mai multe distincții pentru gastronomie. ”Best Food City 2011” (din partea USA Today), ”Diamonds in the Rough 2015” (Conde Nast Traveller), ”STS Top 20 Events 2016” (Scott Boudin and Gulf Brew) etc.
\nLa Randol adie briza Golfului Mexic
\nExperiențele acumulate ne-au pregătit pentru după-amiază cînd am vizitat unul dintre celebrele localuri din Louisiana. 40 de ani de tradiție, nimic fastuos la intrare dar memorabil din punct de vedere gastronomic în interior. ”Randol’s Restaurant & Cajun Dance Hall” este renumit pentru preparatele din fructe de mare, aduse zilnic din Golful Mexic. Frank Randol se mândrește cu echipa sa care a servit de-a lungul anilor vedete, oameni simpli, alături de președinți americani în exercițiu sau foști. Nu vă vom reproduce meniul dar merită să vă recomandăm dacă ajugeți pe urmele noastre: aligator prăjit, crab prăjit (și în toate formele), chiftele de crab albastru, scoici, creveți crocanți, produse din pui și porc etc. Lista vinurilor te trimite spre dealurile însorite din Franța, Argentina, Australia, Noua Zeelandă și, evident, California. De sutele de sortimentele de bere, nu mai vorbim. Dar merită să vorbim despre, surpriză, dimensiunile uriașe ale porțiilor servite. Așa e în America, totul e mare! Atmosferă ca în filmele alea bune, e susținută de o formație care cântă live, întotdeaua live, muzică zydeco, cajun, country. Cum puțină mișcare nu strică ringul de dans este în permanență plin. Imaginați-vă ceva simplu, atmosfera anilor ‘60 de la noi, bal la căminul cultural cu Semnal M. De aici vine tot farmecul. Mâncare de top servită în farfurii cu dimensiunile platourilor, pe fețe de masă în carouri roșii, cadru relaxat, oameni amabili etc. Apoi nu veți scăpa ocazia în momentul plecării să faceți la ieșire o fotografie călare pe un aligator din lemn. Firește... o operă de artă.
\nDespre cină v-am spus câte ceva. Dar ce-ați spune despre un mic dejun, servit a doua zi dimineață la ”Pat’s of Henderson”? Un local cochet care de 50 de ani oferă clienților crab au gratin, creveți umpluți, scoici înăbușite sau coapte, salate și cam tot ce vă doriți. Și evident condimentele și sosurile casei, sunt preparate într-o fabrică proprietate a familiei.
\nBayou Rum - tradiția s-a reînodat
\nȘi pentru că toate acestea trebuie stropite ne oprim la cea mai mare distilerie privată de rom din America. ”Romul este băutura care dă valoare produsului agricol” spun localnicii. Noi adăugăm că ne-a ajutat de minune să digerăm mai ușor mesele consumate. ”Bayou Rum” ne întâmpină cu o atnosferă modernă. Este o afacere nouă fondată în urmă cu 5 ani. Cu ajutorul ei a fost reînviată tradiția producerii romului din trestie de zahăr, resursă abundentă în zonă, ce datează din secolul al XVIII. Documentele atestă existența unor distilerii pe la 1751, cu o întrerupere în perioada războiului din 1861-1865 și apoi din 1919, când din cauza prohibiției producția de rom a fost sistată. O degustare a mărcilor fabricii precum și turul distileriei ne-au oferit prilejul de a remarca existența unei picturi murale cu peisaje din mlaștinile Louisianei, care se îmbina perfect cu tancurile și butoaiele unde se prelucrează și păstrează romul. Sortimentele oferite de gazde la testat s-au armonizat perfect cu o gustare tradițională: Darrell’s Poboy, celebrele sandvișuri în franzele, umplute cu... de toate. De la carne până la salăți. Ceea ce vă recomandă și dumneavoastră. După un asemenea tur gastronomic avem o recomandare. Singurul antidot este... fuga în natură. Pe curând.

A, da, și sediul ziarului local ”Rayne Tribune” al cărui prim număr ce datează din 1894, își datorează faima broscuțelor și mai ales jurnalistei Myrta Fair Craig care l-a condus până în 1994.
\r\nCracklin, în varianta Marie Ducote
\r\n…Și acum ”Allons Manger” căci scopul nostru este de a cunoaște bucătăria ”Cajun” și mai ales să aflăm gustul acestor preparate care onorează orașul Lafayette cu titlul de paradis gastronomic. Așa încât ne lăsăm conduși de Marie Ducote, un ghid de excepție (profesor de istorie) care ne oferă un regal de informații atât gastro cât și istorice. Poveștile ei despre acadieni populație (de origine franceză), stabilită în regiunea denumită azi Acadiana, cu aproximativ 200 de ani în urmă, sunt pline de gust și savoare căci sunt practice: vreți să știți ce este ”cracklin”? Ne oprim la ”Famous Food”, un local de familie unde patronul ne servește la micul dejun ”cracklin” adică jumări crocante de porc. Tot el ne delectează cu câteva melodii interpretate la acordeon în stil... zydeco. Și ne mai servește și ”Boudin” adică mai pe limba noastră... caltaboș fiert sau prăjit. Aceasta este considerată mâncarea favorită a Sudului. Pentru a înțelege în profunzime ce înseamnă ”Laissez les bon temps rouler” suntem ghidați spre alte trei locații din cele peste 25 recomandate în acest ”Cajun Food Tours”. Primul stop în facem la ”Early’s food store”, un magazin unde poți servi zilnic, la prânz, în afară de preparate cracklin și boudin un burger special de pui și celebra lor plăcintă cu piersici. Ai timp să tragi cu ochiul spre vitrinele frigorifice ticsite cu semipreparate pentru acasă: pui umplut cajun, porc cajun & cârnați, jumări etc. Noi ne-am făcut plăcerea de a lua o cutie din condimentul minune al casei. Și ne-am convins de gustul său iute-smoked special. După atâta carne merge o cafea, așa că ne oprin la un local deschis special pentru noi în sfânta zi de duminică. La ”Papa T” unde avem parte de o demonstrație profesională a proprietarului care alături de cafea ne tratează cu ”bread puding” marca ”Papa T” foarte apreciată în zonă. Într-atât încât pentru zilele săptămânii, datorită supraaglomerării cererii e necesar să-ți faci anterior, programare. Deci, avantaj noi! Următorul respiro al turului îl facem la ”Carpe Diem” tot în Lafayette, unde testăm o înghețată ”home-maid”. De aici pornim spre Centrul de informare turistică al orașului de unde pornesc toate excursiile urbane ori în natură. Aici ne distrăm cu aromele emanate dintr-un dulap de bucătărie, unde fiecare sertar ori ușă deschisă degajă arome de condimente folosite la preparatele boudin și cracklin. Nu întâmplător Lafayette, ”inima cajun & creole a Louisianei” a primit numai în ultimii șase ani mai multe distincții pentru gastronomie. ”Best Food City 2011” (din partea USA Today), ”Diamonds in the Rough 2015” (Conde Nast Traveller), ”STS Top 20 Events 2016” (Scott Boudin and Gulf Brew) etc.
\r\nLa Randol adie briza Golfului Mexic
\r\nExperiențele acumulate ne-au pregătit pentru după-amiază cînd am vizitat unul dintre celebrele localuri din Louisiana. 40 de ani de tradiție, nimic fastuos la intrare dar memorabil din punct de vedere gastronomic în interior. ”Randol’s Restaurant & Cajun Dance Hall” este renumit pentru preparatele din fructe de mare, aduse zilnic din Golful Mexic. Frank Randol se mândrește cu echipa sa care a servit de-a lungul anilor vedete, oameni simpli, alături de președinți americani în exercițiu sau foști. Nu vă vom reproduce meniul dar merită să vă recomandăm dacă ajugeți pe urmele noastre: aligator prăjit, crab prăjit (și în toate formele), chiftele de crab albastru, scoici, creveți crocanți, produse din pui și porc etc. Lista vinurilor te trimite spre dealurile însorite din Franța, Argentina, Australia, Noua Zeelandă și, evident, California. De sutele de sortimentele de bere, nu mai vorbim. Dar merită să vorbim despre, surpriză, dimensiunile uriașe ale porțiilor servite. Așa e în America, totul e mare! Atmosferă ca în filmele alea bune, e susținută de o formație care cântă live, întotdeaua live, muzică zydeco, cajun, country. Cum puțină mișcare nu strică ringul de dans este în permanență plin. Imaginați-vă ceva simplu, atmosfera anilor ‘60 de la noi, bal la căminul cultural cu Semnal M. De aici vine tot farmecul. Mâncare de top servită în farfurii cu dimensiunile platourilor, pe fețe de masă în carouri roșii, cadru relaxat, oameni amabili etc. Apoi nu veți scăpa ocazia în momentul plecării să faceți la ieșire o fotografie călare pe un aligator din lemn. Firește... o operă de artă.
\r\nDespre cină v-am spus câte ceva. Dar ce-ați spune despre un mic dejun, servit a doua zi dimineață la ”Pat’s of Henderson”? Un local cochet care de 50 de ani oferă clienților crab au gratin, creveți umpluți, scoici înăbușite sau coapte, salate și cam tot ce vă doriți. Și evident condimentele și sosurile casei, sunt preparate într-o fabrică proprietate a familiei.
\r\nBayou Rum - tradiția s-a reînodat
\r\nȘi pentru că toate acestea trebuie stropite ne oprim la cea mai mare distilerie privată de rom din America. ”Romul este băutura care dă valoare produsului agricol” spun localnicii. Noi adăugăm că ne-a ajutat de minune să digerăm mai ușor mesele consumate. ”Bayou Rum” ne întâmpină cu o atnosferă modernă. Este o afacere nouă fondată în urmă cu 5 ani. Cu ajutorul ei a fost reînviată tradiția producerii romului din trestie de zahăr, resursă abundentă în zonă, ce datează din secolul al XVIII. Documentele atestă existența unor distilerii pe la 1751, cu o întrerupere în perioada războiului din 1861-1865 și apoi din 1919, când din cauza prohibiției producția de rom a fost sistată. O degustare a mărcilor fabricii precum și turul distileriei ne-au oferit prilejul de a remarca existența unei picturi murale cu peisaje din mlaștinile Louisianei, care se îmbina perfect cu tancurile și butoaiele unde se prelucrează și păstrează romul. Sortimentele oferite de gazde la testat s-au armonizat perfect cu o gustare tradițională: Darrell’s Poboy, celebrele sandvișuri în franzele, umplute cu... de toate. De la carne până la salăți. Ceea ce vă recomandă și dumneavoastră. După un asemenea tur gastronomic avem o recomandare. Singurul antidot este... fuga în natură. Pe curând.

O proiecție optimistă. Dar e de realistă? Numărul celor sosiți în România s-a majorat cu circa 16-17% anul trecut, iar pentru acest an este estimat un plus de 20% (adică încă 450.000 de turiști străini în țară, cu circa 900.000 de înnoptări).

\nINVESTIȚII: Banul s-a zidit la Turda și București\n\n
Un proiect anunțat cu mai bine de 4 ani în urmă a fost finalizat de Salina Turda. În urma unei investiții de circa 1 milion de lei, fonduri provenite dintr-un credit dar și din surse proprii ale salinei, a fost modernizat și inaugurat hotelul Potaissa. Conform directorului Salinei Turda, Simona Baciu ”hotelul, ce oferă 24 de camere și apartamente, beneficiaza acum de un centru SPA în cadrul căruia va funcționa și o bază medicală. În total investiția se va ridica până la sfârșitul anului la circa 4 milioane de lei.” Anul trecut, Salina Turda a fost vizitată de aproape 550.000 de turiști, cel mai mare număr înregistrat de la reabilitarea sa, în 2010. Circa 30% dintre aceștia sunt străini și au venit din Ungaria, Israel, Anglia, SUA, Spania, China, Japonia, Polonia, Germania, Mexic.
\nDe asemenea, la București Compania Ana Hotels, controlată de familia Copos, a anunțat demararea unor investiții în valoare de circa 20 milioane de euro ce vor avea ca obiect hotelul Athenee Palace - Hilton. Acestea se vor desfășura pe mai multe etape și includ renovarea completă a camerelor (ce va dura până în 2020), construirea unui corp nou de hotel cu aproximativ 70 de camere precum și a unei săli de conferințe de 900 metri pătrați. Investițiile sunt susținute de acționarul majoritar din fondurile și dividendele rezultate în urma vânzării Ana IMEP din Pitești către grupul nipon Nidec.
\nTRANZACȚII: Unde sunt cumpărătorii ?
\nÎncă două hoteluri din stațiunea Poiana Brașov - Rina Vista și Rina Tirol -, clasificate la 3 stele, deținute de o firmă cu acționari israelieni intrată în faliment, au fost scoase inițial la vânzare pentru suma de 3,1, respectiv 2,1 milioane de euro. Deoarece nu s-a găsit încă un cumpărător, prețul de vânzare a fost redus la 2,4 milioane de euro pentru Rina Vista, dar pentru Rina Tirol el a fost ridicat la 2,5 milioane de euro. În 2008, când a achizitionat cele două hoteluri, compania anunța că va investi 8 milioane de euro în modernizarea acestora. După apariția crizei compania s-a confruntat cu dificultăți financiare intrând în insolvență în 2012 și anul trecut în faliment. Rina Tirol are 56 de camere repartizate pe 4 etaje, iar Rina Vista are 106 camere pe 5 etaje.
\nLa rândul său olandezul Jerry van Schaik, și-a anunțat intenția de a vinde integral pachetul de acțiuni deținut la Rembrandt Hotel SRL. Aceasta operează hotelul și cafeneaua Klein, recent lansată pe piață, din Centrul Vechi al Capitalei. Prețul de pornire este de 350.000 euro. Decizia e suprinzătoare, afirmă specialiștii, în condițiile în care Rembrandt, este unul dintre cele mai apreciat și votat de către turiștii străini. Boutique hotelul a fost deschis în 2005 și are 16 camere. În 2015, unitatea a avut o rată de ocupare de 86,7%. Vânzarea face parte dintr-o repoziționare a afacerilor lui Jerry van Schaik. Acesta a precizat că se va concentra pe proiecte noi de promovare a României către turiștii din Olanda și din țări vest europene.

\r\nTRANZACȚII: Unde sunt cumpărătorii ?
\r\nÎncă două hoteluri din stațiunea Poiana Brașov - Rina Vista și Rina Tirol -, clasificate la 3 stele, deținute de o firmă cu acționari israelieni intrată în faliment, au fost scoase inițial la vânzare pentru suma de 3,1, respectiv 2,1 milioane de euro. Deoarece nu s-a găsit încă un cumpărător, prețul de vânzare a fost redus la 2,4 milioane de euro pentru Rina Vista, dar pentru Rina Tirol el a fost ridicat la 2,5 milioane de euro. În 2008, când a achizitionat cele două hoteluri, compania anunța că va investi 8 milioane de euro în modernizarea acestora. După apariția crizei compania s-a confruntat cu dificultăți financiare intrând în insolvență în 2012 și anul trecut în faliment. Rina Tirol are 56 de camere repartizate pe 4 etaje, iar Rina Vista are 106 camere pe 5 etaje.
\r\nLa rândul său olandezul Jerry van Schaik, și-a anunțat intenția de a vinde integral pachetul de acțiuni deținut la Rembrandt Hotel SRL. Aceasta operează hotelul și cafeneaua Klein, recent lansată pe piață, din Centrul Vechi al Capitalei. Prețul de pornire este de 350.000 euro. Decizia e suprinzătoare, afirmă specialiștii, în condițiile în care Rembrandt, este unul dintre cele mai apreciat și votat de către turiștii străini. Boutique hotelul a fost deschis în 2005 și are 16 camere. În 2015, unitatea a avut o rată de ocupare de 86,7%. Vânzarea face parte dintr-o repoziționare a afacerilor lui Jerry van Schaik. Acesta a precizat că se va concentra pe proiecte noi de promovare a României către turiștii din Olanda și din țări vest europene.

Vom ajunge să-i luăm pe străini să doarmă la noi acasă? Așa se va naște... cazarea socială! Unii investitori își cresc patrimoniul hotelier, alții se gândesc la exituri și vânzări. Cumpărătorii așteaptă la ”copca tranzacțiilor” prețuri mai prietenești ori... disperate.
\r\nTENDINTE: E nevoie de mai multe hoteluri\r\n
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5385,5386,5387,5384\"]\r\nChiar dacă anul trecut gradul de ocupare al spațiilor de cazare din țara noastră a fost de numai 28,7% iar durata sejururilor străinilor în România a scăzut în medie sub 2 zile, reprezentanții hotelierilor români sunt de părere că acest segment duce lipsă de investiții iar străinii nu vor mai avea loc în hoteluri. O proiecție optimistă. Dar e de realistă? Numărul celor sosiți în România s-a majorat cu circa 16-17% anul trecut, iar pentru acest an este estimat un plus de 20% (adică încă 450.000 de turiști străini în țară, cu circa 900.000 de înnoptări). În paralel, însă, nu a crescut și numărul de camere. Astfel că, în câțiva ani ,e posibil ca turiștii să nu mai găsească locuri disponibile în hotelurile din Capitală și din stațiunile din țară în perioadele de vârf, cred hotelierii. Conform datelor ANT, în perioada 2014-2016, au fost inaugurate în București doar 389 de camere cu 771 de locuri.
\r\n”90% dintre turiștii străini dorm în hoteluri, subliniază Călin Ile, liderul Federației Industriei Hoteliere din România (FIHR). În toată țara există 71.251 de camere clasificate la 3, 4 și 5 stele. Ce se va întîmpla dacă situația ne avantajează? Iar anul viitor vom avea creștere de încă 15% pentru turismul românesc? Înseamnă înca 3,6 milioane de înnoptări și asta doar pentru 2017. Bucureștiul are circa 13.000 de camere viabile, cu un grad mediu de ocupare de peste 65% în 2015, față de 63% în 2014. Cum 2016 mai aduce un plus de circa 3% în piață, orașul se apropie de un grad mediu de ocupare de 68% pe an. Cum apar puține camere noi în piață, e tendința ultimilor ani, Bucureștiul mai poate aduce maximum 200.000 înnoptări. Vom avea unde să îi cazăm în 2017 pe cei care vor consuma 3,6 milioane de înnoptări prevăzute? Nu avansăm calcule pentru 2018 sau 2019, chiar 2020, când va avea loc Campionatul European de Fotbal în țară sau 2021, când Timișoara va fi Capitală culturală europeană. Riscăm să ne sufocăm, să ne supraîncălzim cu o cerere suplimentară pe care nu o vom putea gestiona eficient”.
\r\nINVESTIȚII: Banul s-a zidit la Turda și București\r\n\r\n
Un proiect anunțat cu mai bine de 4 ani în urmă a fost finalizat de Salina Turda. În urma unei investiții de circa 1 milion de lei, fonduri provenite dintr-un credit dar și din surse proprii ale salinei, a fost modernizat și inaugurat hotelul Potaissa. Conform directorului Salinei Turda, Simona Baciu ”hotelul, ce oferă 24 de camere și apartamente, beneficiaza acum de un centru SPA în cadrul căruia va funcționa și o bază medicală. În total investiția se va ridica până la sfârșitul anului la circa 4 milioane de lei.” Anul trecut, Salina Turda a fost vizitată de aproape 550.000 de turiști, cel mai mare număr înregistrat de la reabilitarea sa, în 2010. Circa 30% dintre aceștia sunt străini și au venit din Ungaria, Israel, Anglia, SUA, Spania, China, Japonia, Polonia, Germania, Mexic.

Orașul de la malul Dunării a fost luat cu asalt de pasionații de ciclism și concursuri offroad din toate colțurile țării. Cursa de şosea este ultima etapă din Road Grand Tour, cea mai importantă competiţie de acest gen din România. De asemenea, evenimentul a găzduit și cea de-a doua ediţie a Campionatului Naţional de Tandemuri la care au s-au întrecut peste 15 echipe. Cursa prichindeilor (până la 7 ani) s-a desfășurat pe un traseu mirific, pe Insula Mare a Ialomiței, înconjurată de Dunăre. Fondul generos de premii - circa 5.000 de euro, a recompensat câștigătorii Ofensivei asfaltului, ultima etapa din Road Grand Tour (72 kilometri), respectiv pe cei ai Asaltului insulei, o cursă offroad unică în România (cu un traseu de circa 50 de kilometri - ne-a precizat Claudia Sofron (PR Manager).\r\n_____________________________\r\n\r\nVORONEȚ: Toamna cu Peter Hurley\r\n \r\n\r\n\r\nA 36 ediție a Festivalului Internațional de Film, Diaporamă și Fotografie „Toamnă la Voroneț” , care s-a consumat la Gura Humorului între 13 și 16 ooctombrie a înregistrat mai multe suprize artistice. Printre ele s-a numărat și prestația Agenției Naționale de Presă AGERPRES care a susținut acest festival printr-o expoziție din arhiva fotografică despre istoria României, respectiv un film documentar de excepție „Descoperă România cu Peter Hurley”. El reface călătoria inițiatică pe care un irlandez a facut-o în România. Cu un rucsac de peste zece kilograme în spate, timp de 25 de zile, pornind pe jos de la Săpânța către București, în anul 2012, Peter Hurley s-a bazat în totalitate pe ospitalitatea românilor și s-a îndrăgostit de tradițiile istorice și folclorice ale neamului nostru. La recenta ediție a festivalului au fost înscrise în total 132 de filme din 19 țări.\r\n_____________________________\r\n\r\nTIMIȘOARA: ”Luminează orașul prin tine”\r\n\r\n
Orașul de pe Bega va deveni în 2021 a doua localitate românească (după Sibiu) ce va purta titulatura de Capitală culturală europeană. Decizia a fost luată luna trecută când juriul a avut de ales în faza finală dintre București, Cluj-Napoca, Baia Mare și Timișoara. Bănățenii au candidat cu proiectul care are ca slogan ”Luminează orașul prin tine”. Oferta culturală a Timișoarei e reprezentată de 24 de biblioteci, 19 cinematografe, 11 săli de conferințe, 14 galerii de artă contemporană, 6 teatre, 4 muzee, o Filarmonică și o Operă, 4 spații culturale, 47 de situri de patrimoniu, 24 de școli, 8 centre ale industriei culturale și creative, 340 de piețe și curți interioare, 18 clădiri publice și comerciale etc. În 2021, vor fi trei Capitale Europene ale Culturii: una din țările candidate la UE (Serbia și Muntenegru), una din Grecia și una din România.
\r\nTitlul de Capitală Europeană a Culturii este atribuit unui oraș din UE, pe durata unui an. Până în 2019, 60 de localități vor fi deținut titlul de Capitală Europeană a Culturii. Programul este considerat a fi inițiativa culturală emblematică a Uniunii Europene. „Conceptul este extraordinar, pentru că promovează dialogul intercultural și accentuează sentimentul de apartenență la UE. Trebuie să aducem Europa mai aproape de oameni. Cultura este „miezul” din care s-a clădit Europa. Valorile culturale ne apropie între noi” - a declarat Karel Bartak, Head of Culture Unit în cadrul Comisiei Europene.

The entire complex is composed of two islands, Egreta and Pelicanul, each with 15 bungalows. The cottages (which have living rooms, kitchens and bedroom on the upper level) are connected by suspended cliffs, but pontoons for fishermen and a mini-harbor for boats, alleys for passengers, a bicycle track etc. will also be created. “There is also an arranged swimming pool, parking for 40 cars. This is only the first part of the project: 15 bungalows, swimming pool and reception. We will also have a restaurant which will be ready next year. There will be another 15 mirrored bungalows, but we are waiting for at least one investor wishing to build here” – investor Sorin Liubimirescu specifies. The project was also embraced by the city hall of Berzasca, which sensed that the economic and tourism development will generate jobs and additional finances to the local budget - Traian Mateescu, deputy Mayor of Berzasca commune stated.\n\nThe lake holiday village received the financial support of the European Union, which contributed with almost 200,000 non-refundable Euros.

\r\n
The Cãrturești Verona Tea House in Bucharest has been once again the witness of a love declaration. This was performed by the Japanese Myia Kosei that presented to the public a photo album dedicated to the Romanian historical region of Maramures.
\r\n“The color photos are like a theatre play of colors (…) they relate to each other in a most subtle way, in order to create a wonderful show. They compose poems. Goethe used to say that they spring from the combination of the beauty of the nature and the human sense of the sight. I am largely attracted by the natural beauty and the beauty in humans’ souls. Romanian people always make a wonderfully shaped composition” – said Myia Kosei.
\r\nVirgil Ștefan Nițulescu, editor in chief of Revista muzeelor appreciates that “Myia Kosei is seduced by the scenery offered by the traditional man. He says that life in the villages of Maramures is changing and we should not force people embrace change just for the sake of it.” Myia Kosei has been travelling in the country and photographing Romania for over 50 years.

\r\nMARIUS BAZAVAN: “The BACOLUX chain is growing slowly but strong!”
\r\nThe story started with a small unit in Craiova, followed by a tourist pension in Bușteni resort (Prahova Valley) and in 2011 two large hotels were added - Diana and Afrodita in the SPA resort of Băile Herculane. Today Bacolux is a hotel chain that ownes and offers about 1000 rooms on the Romanian travel market.
\r\nMarian Bazavan (53 years old), having over 30 years experience in the travel business, is the founder and owner of the chain. His sons Marius and Florin Bazavan, are the managers and business developers. In an interview for our magazine Marius said: ”the story of Bacolux chain started having as its engine the wish to contribute in relaunching an important part of the local hotel industry, through our two hotels in Băile Herculane – a SPA and cure resort established by the Romans.

\r\nRADISSON Blu in Braşov
\r\nThe spring of 2018 will bring in the city of Brasov the second Radisson Blu hotel in Romania. Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group, the owner of the brand, and Tresor Com, controlled by Neamtu Family in Brasov, signed in November the franchise contract for the new hotel. Radisson Blu Brasov will be located in the historical area, opposite the City Hall and will probably be rated 5 stars. The estimated 10 million Euros investment will conclude in a hotel unit with 105 rooms, restaurants, conference facilities, bar, SPA & fitness area, etc.
\r\nTresor Com bought in 2015, from Telekom Romania, a building in central Brasov, in order to convert it into a hotel. In Romania the Carlson Rezidor Group operates the Radisson Blu and Park Inn by Radisson hotels in Bucharest.
\r\nMYIA KOSEI: “The beauty in the hearts of the Romanians is fascinating for me!”
\r\nThe Cãrturești Verona Tea House in Bucharest has been once again the witness of a love declaration. This was performed by the Japanese Myia Kosei that presented to the public a photo album dedicated to the Romanian historical region of Maramures.
\r\n“The color photos are like a theatre play of colors (…) they relate to each other in a most subtle way, in order to create a wonderful show. They compose poems. Goethe used to say that they spring from the combination of the beauty of the nature and the human sense of the sight. I am largely attracted by the natural beauty and the beauty in humans’ souls. Romanian people always make a wonderfully shaped composition” – said Myia Kosei.
\r\nVirgil Ștefan Nițulescu, editor in chief of Revista muzeelor appreciates that “Myia Kosei is seduced by the scenery offered by the traditional man. He says that life in the villages of Maramures is changing and we should not force people embrace change just for the sake of it.” Myia Kosei has been travelling in the country and photographing Romania for over 50 years.
\r\nSIBIU – European Region of Gastronomy in 2019

Peste 230 de operatori turistici din România, Bulgaria, Germania, Grecia, India, Iordania, Israel, Italia, Macedonia, Marea Britanie, Palestina, Republica Dominicană, Ungaria, Tunisia, Republica Sud Africană etc, şi-au expus ofertele. La eveniment au fost prezente şi Consiliile Judeţene din Arad, Argeş, Bacău, Brăila, Dâmboviţa, Gorj, Harghita, Hunedoara, Maramureş, Mehedinţi, Satu-Mare, Sibiu, Suceava, Neamţ, dar şi reprezentanţi ai oraşelor Bucureşti, Piatra Neamţ, Sibiu, Panciu, Sighişoara, Făgăraş, Horezu, Techirghiol, Târgovişte, Iaşi etc.
\nCENTRU PENTRU CONVENȚIA CARPATICĂ\n\nMinisterul Economiei va înființa un Centru Român de Coordonare a Convenției Carpatice privind Turismul Durabil în Munții Carpați. El va avea sediul la Brașov, și va gestiona circulația și destinațiile turistice din Carpați. Centrul va avea cinci posturi, iar cheltuielile de personal sunt estimate la 25.000 lei pe lună. El va funcționa în cadrul ANT. Reprezentanții statelor membre ale inițiativei regionale Convenția Carpatică sunt Ucraina, Cehia, Slovacia, Ungaria, Serbia, Muntenegru, România și Polonia, pe teritoriul cărora se află Munții Carpați. Convenția-cadru pentru protecția și dezvoltarea durabilă a Carpaților a fost semnată în 2003 și a devenit operațională din 4 ianuarie 2006.\n\nAUTORITATEA NAȚIONALĂ PENTRU TURISM (ANT)\n\n ...a anunțat că va autoriza 12 noi stațiuni turistice. Conform evaluărilor specialiștilor acestei instituții vor primi acest statut: comuna Sucevița (jud. Suceava), comuna Pojorâta (Suceava), Băile Banffy-Toplița (Harghita), Borsec (Harghita), Negrești-Oaș, (Satu Mare), Băile Ocna Dej, (Cluj), comuna Sângiorgiu de Mureș (Mureș), localitatea Colibița (Bistrița Năsăud), Moinești (Bacău), comuna Baia de Fier (Gorj), comuna Boghiș (Sălaj), comuna Moisei (Maramureș). Atestarea stațiunilor turistice permite, pe lângă dezvoltarea socio-economică a acestor localități, posibilitatea de accesare a unor fonduri europene în scopul dezvoltării și reconversiei zonelor respective. \n\n„SĂ CONTINUĂM COOPERAREA!” Conferinţa de lansare a Programului Interreg V-A România-Ungaria, organizată sub deviza “Să continuăm cooperarea!”, a fost găzduită de Oradea. La eveniment a fost prezentat stadiul implementării programului, a perspectivelor de cooperare, precum şi a iniţiativelor transfrontaliere materializate. Conferinţa a reunit peste 150 de participanţi din ambele state partenere. Evenimentul a inclus şi o expoziţie de fotografii realizate de cunoscutul artist orădean Ovi D. Pop. În acord cu poziţia Comisiei Europene, respectiv orientarea către proiecte de impact şi obţinerea de rezultate, Autoritatea de Management a oferit informaţii legate de calendarul lansării apelurilor de proiecte. Programul Interreg V-A România-Ungaria finanþeazã proiecte româno-ungare, care abordeazã nevoi identificate pe ambele laturi ale graniþei ºi necesitã o abordare comunã.

Federația Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR) apreciază demersurile ce au permis curățarea pieței de turism, măsură pe care hotelierii au solicitat-o de mult timp. În contextul actual, hotelierii vor fi mult mai atenți cu ce agenții de turism vor colabora pe viitor, mai ales că aproape 40 de agenții dintre cele care și-au pierdut licența erau membre ANAT. FPTR consideră că această măsura trebuie aplicată și în cazul hotelurilor și al restaurantelor pentru ca industria turismului să funcționeze corect, transparent și în favoarea clientului final. Este nevoie de o listă completă cu hotelurile, unde să apară nu doar clasificarea, ci și societatea de care aparție unitatea. FPTR reprezintă angajatori a peste 33.000 de salariați, cu o cifră de afaceri cumulată de peste 5 miliarde de euro -\na declarat Nicolae Bucovală, Prim-vicepreşedinte FPTR.\n\n\n4 NOI AUTOBUZE\n\nDupă ce a constatat că linia turistică Bucharest City Tour este destul de rentabilă (circa 190.000 de lei profit în 2015) Regia Autonoma de Transport București (RATB) a anunțat că și-a propus să achiziționeze 4 autobuze noi cu etaj ce vor fi utilizate în acest scop. Valoarea totală a contractului se ridică la circa 4 milioane de lei, plus TVA. Până în prezent transportatorul utiliza autobuze închiriate de la Regia Autonomă de Transport din Comun Constanța (RATC), pentru care plătea 645.000 de lei, plus TVA, pentru 6 luni de exploatare (în intervalul 15 mai - 15 octombrie al fiecărui an).

De la debut, în aprilie 2014, evenimentele au reunit peste 700 de specialiști din domeniul medical, operatori și autorități din turismul românesc dar și de peste hotare. Noua ediție a avut ca generic „Băile Herculane, mai mult decât apă – Wellness, energie și viață” şi a atras experţi şi specialişti din acest domeniu sau de pe segmente conexe. \r\n\r\n Conferința găzduită de Hotelul Afrodita – de unde nu au lipsit Ambasadorii Băilor Herculane -, şi-a propus să dezvolte promovarea și prezentarea terapiilor ce folosesc apele cu proprietăți speciale ale zonei, în contextul noilor tendințe de wellness din Europa. Un punct central al asociației rămâne în continuare promovarea prevenției cât și a unui stil de viață sănătos și o valorificare corectă a resurselor naturale și istorice ale zonei. ,, Ne bucurăm că echipa noastră și numărul membrilor asociației a crescut considerabil în ultimul an, ceea ce ne dă încrederea nu numai că suntem pe drumul cel bun dar şi că staţiunea are un viitor certificat de resursele naturale. Aceste evenimente sunt o ocazie minunată ca toți cei implicați în dezvoltarea zonei să profite de platforma de comunicarea deja realizată, loc unde putem genera proiecte pentru viitor” – a declarat Marinela Badea, președintele Asociației Pro Turism Herculane. Detalii despre conţinutul dezbaterilor în numărul viitor.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nAmbasador al Băilor Herculane \r\nMYIA KOSEI: “Mã fascineazã frumusetea din sufletul românilor!”
\r\nCeainãria Cãrturești Verona din Capitalã a fost din nou martorul unei declaraþii de dragoste. Ea a fost fãcutã de artistul nipon Myia Kosei care face fotografii în România de mai bine de 5 decenii. Evenimentul a fost personalizat prin lansarea albumului dedicat Maramureșului. „Fotografiile în culori sunt un teatru în culori. Cum spunea Goethe, toate culorile sunt vectori între alb și negru. Ele se întrețes unele cu altele într-un fel subtil, pentru a pune în scenã un spectacol minunat. Ele compun poeme. Goethe spunea cã ele apar în coloaborarea dintre frumusețea naturii și simțul omenesc al vederii. Sunt foarte atras de frumusețea naturalã și de frumusețea din sufletele oamenilor. Românii dau mereu o compoziție de o formã minunatã” – aprecia Myia Kosei. Virgil Ștefan Nițulescu, redactor-șef al Revistei muzeelor considera la rândul sãu cã “Myia Kosei e sedus funciarmente, de peisajul creat de omul tradițional. El ne spune cã viața satelelor maramureșene se schimbã, dar nu este cazul sã îi forțãm pe acești oameni sã adopte schimbarea de dragul acesteia, așa cum ar fi o prostie sã îi îndrepãrtãm, în ritm gimnastic, de sensurile legãturilor tainice cu strãmoșii.”

Hotelul va dispune de 105 camere, restaurante, spaţii de conferinţe, bar, centru SPA & fitness şi va fi inaugurat în prima parte a anului 2018. Investiţia, ce va genera circa 100 de noi locuri de muncă, este estimată la aproximativ 10 milioane de euro. “Ne dorim ca în această locaţie să aducem excelenţa în serviciile hoteliere de care toți braşovenii să fie mândri şi, astfel, să sprijinim dezvoltarea pieţei hoteliere locale şi să contribuim la promovarea oraşului Braşov.\r\n\r\nApreciem că lucrările vor dura cel mult 2 ani” - a declarat Ramona Neamţu, reprezentanta grupului de investitori.\r\n\r\nCompania Tresor Com a cumpărat în 2015, de la Telekom România, un imobil situat în centrul oraşului Braşov cu scopul de a dezvolta un hotel. Mircea Drăghici, prin firma EST Hospitality, a fost selectat consultant al proiectului, oferind - în baza unui studiu de piaţă şi fezabilitate - solutia optimă de utilizare pentru clădirea viitorului hotel.

În ultimii ani, când se afla în portofoliul Agenţiei Naţionale a Funcţionarilor Publici, hotelul Maramureş din Olimp ajunsese într-o fază de paragină greu de descris.

Investiţia, ce va genera circa 100 de noi locuri de muncă, este estimată la aproximativ 10 milioane de euro. “Ne dorim ca în această locaţie să aducem excelenţa în serviciile hoteliere de care toți braşovenii să fie mândri şi, astfel, să sprijinim dezvoltarea pieţei hoteliere locale şi să contribuim la promovarea oraşului Braşov.\r\n\r\nApreciem că lucrările vor dura cel mult 2 ani” - a declarat Ramona Neamţu, reprezentanta grupului de investitori.\r\n\r\nCompania Tresor Com a cumpărat în 2015, de la Telekom România, un imobil situat în centrul oraşului Braşov cu scopul de a dezvolta un hotel. Mircea Drăghici, prin firma EST Hospitality, a fost selectat consultant al proiectului, oferind - în baza unui studiu de piaţă şi fezabilitate - solutia optimă de utilizare pentru clădirea viitorului hotel. Totodată, pe baza rezultatelor studiului de piaţă fost selectat brandul Radisson BLU.\r\n\r\nManagementul de proiect pentru activitatea de dezvoltare este realizat de Daniel Dediu, prin firma Creative Management. Unul dintre cei mai importanţi furnizori de resurse umane superior calificate va fi Şcoală hotelieră internaţională din Braşov (American Hotel Academy/Manchester Metropolitan University).\r\n\r\n“Prezenta unui brand hotelier international important în Braşov ar trebui să contribuie la creşterea calităţii serviciilor hoteliere locale, dar şi la lărgirea oportunităţilor profesionale pentru studeţii şi absolvenţii American Hotel Academy şi ai altor şcoli de specialitate din regiune” - a subliniat Dl. Sebastian Georgescu, Director General al American Hotel Academy Braşov.\r\n\r\nTRANZACŢII\r\nS-a vândut Meseş\r\nSIF Hoteluri, deţinută de SIF Banat-Crişana, a vândut prin licitaţie (cu doi participanţi) hotelul Meseş din Zalău cu 8,8 milioane de lei. Preţul de pornire a fost de 5,55 milioane. Unitatea este clasificată la 3 stele, are 60 de locuri de cazare, dispune de restaurant propriu cu o capacitate de 120 de locuri, o sală de conferinţe de 60 de locuri, grădină de vară şi parcare. Pentru acest an, SIF Hoteluri estimează o cifră de afaceri în creştere cu 57% faţă de anul trecut.\r\n\r\nINVESTIŢII\r\n”Maramureşul” spune adio turiştilor\r\nDupă ce hotelul Crișana din Staţiunea Olimp a fost redat circuitului turistic, complet refăcut, Serviciul Român de Informatii (SRI), a anunțat că va investi 5 milioane de euro în ”Maramureş” al doilea complex pe care-l deține în aceeaşi stațiune estivală. Hotelul are 13 etaje şi peste 220 de camere, fiind construit pe un teren de aproape 9.000 de metri pătraţi. SRI îi va ridica standardul de la 2 la 3 stele, păstrându-l însă într-un circuit închis şi rezervat pentru relaxarea ofiţerilor de informaţii şi a familiilor acestora.\r\n\r\nDupă cum se estimează lucrările de modernizare vor fi incheiate în circa doi ani. În ultimii ani, când se afla în portofoliul Agenţiei Naţionale a Funcţionarilor Publici, hotelul Maramureş din Olimp ajunsese într-o fază de paragină greu de descris. El a fost trecut cu un an în urmă însă, printr-o hotărâre de guvern, de la Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale la SRI.\r\nArsenal intră într-o nouă rundă\r\nDupă mai multe etape de investiţii oamenii de afaceri Emil şi Marius Cristescu au anunţat că vor investi în total circa 20 milioane de euro în Arsenal Park, parte din aceşti bani provenind din fonduri europene nerambursabile.\r\nArsenal Park are 230 de locuri de cazare, peste 10 obiective de turism de aventură şi este întins pe 80 de hectare. Ultima investiţie din Arsenal Park, AquaParq Arsenal, a fost dată în folosinţă la jumătatea acestui an şi s-a ridicat la 7 miioane de euro, din care 3 milioane nerambursabili, a declarat Romina Faur, director de proiect la Arsenal Park.\r\n\r\nAqua Park Arsenal include 3 zone distincte: SunWaves, Inner Bliss si Belvedere Lounge&Terasa. SunWaves este partea de exterior, care include 4 bazine, 6 tobogane şi un bar exterior. Inner Bliss reprezintă zona de interior, cu tobogane, 4 bazine, 3 saune si un bar. Zona Belvedere Lounge&Terasa include 2 terase, un bar, un lounge şi o cada cu hidromasaj.\r\n\r\nComplexul a fost inaugurat în 2009 pe un teren de 80 de hectare care aparţinea unei foste fabrici de armament din Orăştie. Complexul deţine, printre altele, un parc tematic în care au fost aduse peste 150 de piese militare ușoare și grele, o reţea de piste de biciclete cu o lungime de 12 kilometri, o tiroliană cu lungimea de 570 de metri, un loc de joacă pentru copii, un parc de aventură, cu şase trasee de diferite dificultăţi, pentru copii şi pentru adulţi, cu peste 70 de platforme şi dispozitive amplasate la o înălţime de până la 25 de metri etc.\r\nANGELA SIMION, ALEX BARBU & ION BADEA\r\n+ SIGLA Fivestar','Ce va străluci sub bradul hotelierilor!, INDUSTRIE HOTELIERA nr.152','','inherit','closed','closed','','5420-revision-v1','','','2017-04-02 23:12:20','2017-04-02 21:12:20','',5420,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2017/04/02/5420-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5423,1,'2017-04-02 23:51:56','2017-04-02 21:51:56','FLORIN & MARIUS BAZAVAN: “Bacolux este un brand care va crește organic.

Florin Bazavan[/caption]\r\n\r\nDoi frați. Total diferiți. Au viteze, stiluri diferite de abordare în management. Când iau însă deciziile de business se sincronizează foarte bine. Aproape nimeni nu știa de ei până în urmă cu câțiva ani. Au apărut pe piața hotelieră după relansarea hotelurilor Afrodita și Diana din Băile Herculane. Atunci s-a poziționat pe piața investitorilor în turism familia Bazavan, din Craiova. Marian Bazavan capul familiei, are 53 de ani dar și o experiență de circa 30 de ani în turism. Florin (30 de ani, absolvent al Facultății de Relații internaționale și administrație publică de la ASE) și Marius (absolvent a 2 facultăți - Drept, respectiv Turism de la Universitate, ulterior Masterat la ASE) sunt fii, iar din 2011 manageri ai acestor proprietăți, parte din lanțul Bacolux. El e format din 4 unități - 1 hotel la Craiova (Craiovița), 2 la Herculane, respectiv o proprietate mai mică la Bușteni. De aici începe o altă poveste.

Marius Bazavan[/caption]\r\n\r\n- Ce experiențe doriți să dezvoltați prin lanțul Bacolux? Unde doriți să-l poziționați ca brand?\r\n\r\n-MARIUS: Bacolux a plecat de la o poveste. Și încercăm să o spunem cât mai frumos pentru turismul românesc. Cred că este un domeniu palpitant, dar - și asta nu se vede -, în care trebuie să faci multe sacrificii. Am dorit să transformăm aceste sacrificii într-un succes și să urcăm hotelurile pe care le operăm într-o poziție superioară. Dorim să fim printre cei mai buni. Am plecat de la o locație mică iar în acest moment am ajuns la 1.000 de locuri de cazare.\r\n![\"Hotel](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Hotel-Afrodita-Herculane.jpg\")
\r\n\r\n- Ați stabilit ”cartierul general” al priorităților la Băile Herculane. După ce ați investit milioane de euro într-o stațiune care mai are mult până să renască apreciați că zona balneară prezintă un mare risc?\r\n\r\n- FLORIN: Da, cartierul general este acum la Băile Herculane, deoarece acolo avem cea mai mare concentrare a business-ului turistic. Eu o văd ca pe o fază de tranziție, deoarece acest cartier se poate muta și în alte orașe unde e posibil să dezvoltăm noi investiții, la Craiova, de ce nu București etc. Acum suntem preocupați mai ales de prezent, dar privim spre viitor. Da, a fost o decizie riscantă să cumpărăm într-o stațiune balneară istorică, dar destul de avariată. Cred însă că așa se deschid oportunități pentru succes, dacă nu riști nu ai cum să simți gustul victoriei. A fost o decizie, cum să spun, nebunească. Pentru noi era o piață cu multe necunoscute. A fost și o decizie de suflet, pentru că o parte din copilăria noastră am trăit-o cu părinții aici la Herculane. În mod sigur a fost și o conexiune, un reflex sufletesc al amintirilor.\r\n![\"Hotel](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Hotel-event-Herculane.jpg\")
\r\n\r\n- Da, dar când e vorba de milioane de euro investiți, amintirile țin loc doar de gablonțuri strălucitoare ...\r\n\r\n- MARIUS: Este adevărat. Totul a plecat de la opțiunile tatălui nostru Marian, care a rămas foarte marcat când a văzut în ce paragină ajunseseră hoteluri respective. I s-a strâns inima. După negocieri îndelungate a fost perfectată cumpărarea hotelului Diana ulterior fiind achiziționat și Afrodita situat mai jos. Ideea a fost să ne protejăm investițiile de un eventual amator, care cine știe ce ar fi făcut în vecinătatea noastră.\r\n![\"Hotel](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Hotel-Herculane-2.jpg\")
\r\n\r\n- Cum arată colaborarea cu administrația locală de stat?\r\n\r\n- MARIUS: Da, noi am încercat să facem tot timpul ceea ce am învățat și știm să facem foarte bine. Să nu așteptăm o minimă apreciere a administrației din zonă. Să facem lucrurile cât putem de bine. Dar în lumea civilizată, se mai întâmplă ceva. Administrația, organele statului sprijină creșterea afacerilor pentru că sunt direct interesate, într-un parteneriat pe termen lung. Aș putea afirma despre acest subiect că avem o colaborare normală și decentă. A fost tot timpul una decentă. Nu și una fructuoasă. Noi ne dorim să fie așa pentru stațiune. Cred că este o problemă de corelare a ideilor noastre cu cele publice. Dacă ne-am fi intersectat mai bine evoluția stațiunii ar fi fost una mai accelerată. Dar n-aș vrea să se înțeleagă că există o tensiune între părți. Dacă ne uităm pe rapoartele INS, vedem că odată cu deschidere celor două hoteluri (după 2012) numărul turiștilor a crescut cu circa 47% față de perioada anterioară. Plus 250 de familii cre și-au găsit un loc de muncă în aceste unități. Prezentul arată că stațiunea se mișcă și în zona infrastructurii rutiere, a amenajărilor urbane. Peste 80% din străzi sunt asfaltate, Parcul Central e refăcut după un concept armonios, plăcut, trotuarele au fost reabilitate. Mai rămân câteva porțiuni ale drumurilor, printre care și cel către Afrodita și Diana, respectiv mici zone din Centru istoric.\r\n![\"Hotel](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Hotel-Herculane.jpg\")
\r\n\r\n- Știu că sunteți partizani ai impulsionării și dezvoltării turismului de evenimente - MICE, mai concentrat exprimat. În afară de mai mulți turiști și mai mulți bani încasați, ce alte avantaje de valoare poate genera acesta pe piața bucureșteană și, în general, în România?\r\n\r\n- FLORIN: Avantajul principal este sănătatea. Băile Herculane este o zonă cu resurse natura extrem de bogate și inepuizabile. Asta dacă vom ști să le protejăm. Apele termale sulfuroase renumite încă de pe vremea romanilor, aerul puternic ionizat, spațiile naturale fantastice. Avantajul cel mai important e sănătatea câștigată și recâștigată de turiștii care vin la Băile Herculane.\r\n![\"Hotel](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Hotel-Herculane1.jpg\")
\r\n\r\n- N-ați fost tentați să lucrați în hoteluri din străinătate sau în hoteluri străine din Romania?\r\n\r\n- MARIUS: Ține de o situație tehnică și de posibilitățile vieții. Dacă ar fi să dau timpul înapoi și să schimb datele lui, aș face acest lucru. E unul dintre regretele mele personale că nu am lucrat într-un lanț internațional pentru a mă familiariza cu standarde și proceduri specifice unei companii străine. Dar n-a depins nici de mine nici de Florin. În 2011 după ce am terminat facultatea, după două săptămâni am plecat direct la Herculane. Pentru că investițiile trebuiau să se miște rapid. Am fost presați de timp să ne implicăm direct, personal și profesional. Dacă nu am fi făcut-o la nivel managerial, de formare a echipei și stabilirea de standarde funcționale, probabil totul ar fi durat mai mult. Ar fi însemnat pierdere de timp și de bani.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5469,5471,5472,5473,5476,5477,5474,5475\"]\r\n\r\n- S-a investit mult în hoteluri, în reconstrucția lor? Mulți oameni de afaceri au uitat că hotelurile sunt construite pentru oameni iar serviciile nu sunt furnizate de roboți. În ultimii ani au apărut scenarii alarmante privitoare la resursele umane. Este forța de muncă din turism desincronizată față de cererile lansate?\r\n\r\n- FLORIN: Mulți oameni de afaceri uită că oamenii sunt sufletul serviciilor în turism, cu precădere. Noi credem că n-am uitat acest lucru. Ne-a preocupat să sprijinim business-ul pe o echipă tânără, cu apetit pentru performanță, deschisă și flexibilă. De la început am investit în oameni, le-am creat un mediu adecvat, stimulator de a lucra. Nimeni nu neagă că forța de muncă e un aspect sensibil în turism. Dar trebuie să demontez câteva ”mituri”. Mai întâi că în turism se câștigă puțin și se muncește mult. Poate nu se cîștigă cât ar dori fiecare. Dar se câștigă. Sunt o serie de condițiile favorabile muncii și ele valoarează mai mult decât câteva sute de lei. Depinde cum privești lucrurile. Apoi, că tinerii vin slab pregătiți și că nu avem școli de formare. În anumite domenii poate e mai bine ca tinerii să vină fără prejudecăți învechite, fără să fie deformați prin cunoștințe inoperabile într-un hotel modern. În fiecare hotel există o cultură organizațională a muncii diferită, în funcție de cerințele managementului și așteptările patronilor. E un aspect sensibil, recunoaștem. Sperăm că tinerii se vor orienta într-un număr din ce în ce mai mare spre acest domeniu, și vor echilibra balanța cererii și oferte. Dacă e bine gestionat, domeniul turistic îți permite să răsplătești oamenii pe măsura muncii. Credem în dezvoltarea lanțului nostru. Nu o facem într-un mod accelerat ci sănătos, aș spune organic.\r\n\r\n- Sunteți foarte receptivi la propuneri venite din zona parteneriatelor media, a asociațiilor ori organizațiior care susțin evenimente de prestigiu? Asociația Pro Turism este una dintre acestea. Sunt puțini proprietarii care se implică în asemenea colaborări. Cum explicăm acest lucru? \r\n\r\n-FLORIN: Ne dorim o promovare mai intensă a stațiunii. Are nevoie de acest lucru după anii de tăcere completă. Multe aspecte au fost uitate, deci ele trebuiesc readuse în atenția tinerelor generații. Lumea modernă se așteaptă la un alt discurs influențat masiv de noile tehnologii de comunicare. Mai flexibile, mai rapide și, uneori, eficiente. Asta încearcă să facă la fiecare ediție, și cred că au ajuns la a VI-a, Asociația Pro Turism. Turismul e vectorul care poate creea plus-valoare Băilor Herculane. Pentru că ne-am dorit o vizibilitate mai mare am apelat la o echipă de tineri, aș putea să spunem, cel puțin la fel de nebuni ca investitorii din familia noastră. Le-am propus un asemenea scenariu inter-activ iar sprijinul nostru este necondiționat. Suntem foarte apropiați pentru că de fiecare dată punem suflet alături de sprijinul acordat. Am convingerea că un singur investitor privat nu poate produce minuni, dar mai mulți pot începe să le facă!\r\n\r\n- Când aveți puțin timp vă luați familia și călătoriți. Știu cum se vede o călătorie prin ochii unui jurnalist de travel, dar cum se vede ea prin ochii unor hotelieri tineri?\r\n\r\n- MARIUS: E o părere personală. Domeniul turismului are o frumusețe generoasă. Și l-am ales fără nicio impunere, condiționare din parte celor din jur. Dar ai mai puțin timp pentru tine, pentru familie, pentru că trebuie să-l aloci clienților tăi. În fața proiectului ambițios de la Herculane, nu ne-a rămas prea mult timp pentru vacanțe. Am călătorit în principal în scop profesional. De câte ori plecăm spre o destinație ne preocupă în principal să înțelegem în ce constau diferențele profitabile în industria ospitalității. În acest scop culegem și comparăm informații turistice. Multe dintre ele s-au dovedit foarte utile business-ului nostru. Dar vom aloca timp pentru vacanțe atunci când afacerile se vor așeza în tipare profitabile garantate. Dar cine deține rețeta magică?\r\n\r\n- Ce ați văzut și v-a plăcut în țară și străinătate? Unde n-ați fost și ați dori să ajungeți?\r\n\r\n- MARIUS: N-am fost în SUA, dar mi-am propus ca anul viitor să ajung. În țară nu am fost în Maramureș și Bucovina. În rest am frecventat toate orașele turistice românești din toate județele țării. Dacă ar fi să alcătuiesc un Top 3, din punct de vedere al infrastructurii și accesibilității turistice aș alege Cluj-Napoca, datorită gastronomiei pe care o promovează. Bucureștiul, de care nu poți face abstracție, e un oraș aglomerat, agitat, dar mie tocmai pentru asta îmi place că are ritmul unei metropole europene. Cred că al treilea ar fi Timișoara, pentru echilibru existent între cultură, natură și arhitectură, apropiat de Craiova, orașul meu natal în care, din păcate, am ajuns să petrec mai puțin timp decât mi-aș dori.\r\n\r\n- Mulțumesc!\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Interviu cu Florin si Marius Bazavan, INTERVIU nr.152','','publish','open','open','','interviu-cu-florin-si-marius-bazavan-interviu-nr-152','','','2017-04-03 00:39:51','2017-04-02 22:39:51','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=5423',0,'post','',0),(5424,1,'2017-04-02 23:21:56','2017-04-02 21:21:56','FLORIN & MARIUS BAZAVAN: “Bacolux este un brand care va crește organic.

În anumite domenii poate e mai bine ca tinerii să vină fără prejudecăți învechite, fără să fie deformați prin cunoștințe inoperabile într-un hotel modern. În fiecare hotel există o cultură organizațională a muncii diferită, în funcție de cerințele managementului și așteptările patronilor. E un aspect sensibil, recunoaștem. Sperăm că tinerii se vor orienta într-un număr din ce în ce mai mare spre acest domeniu, și vor echilibra balanța cererii și oferte. Dacă e bine gestionat, domeniul turistic îți permite să răsplătești oamenii pe măsura muncii. Credem în dezvoltarea lanțului nostru. Nu o facem într-un mod accelerat ci sănătos, aș spune organic.\r\n\r\n- Sunteți foarte receptivi la propuneri venite din zona parteneriatelor media, a asociațiilor ori organizațiior care susțin evenimente de prestigiu? Asociația Pro Turism este una dintre acestea. Sunt puțini proprietarii care se implică în asemenea colaborări. Cum explicăm acest lucru? \r\n\r\n-FLORIN: Ne dorim o promovare mai intensă a stațiunii. Are nevoie de acest lucru după anii de tăcere completă. Multe aspecte au fost uitate, deci ele trebuiesc readuse în atenția tinerelor generații. Lumea modernă se așteaptă la un alt discurs influențat masiv de noile tehnologii de comunicare. Mai flexibile, mai rapide și, uneori, eficiente. Asta încearcă să facă la fiecare ediție, și cred că au ajuns la a VI-a, Asociația Pro Turism. Turismul e vectorul care poate creea plus-valoare Băilor Herculane. Pentru că ne-am dorit o vizibilitate mai mare am apelat la o echipă de tineri, aș putea să spunem, cel puțin la fel de nebuni ca investitorii din familia noastră. Le-am propus un asemenea scenariu inter-activ iar sprijinul nostru este necondiționat. Suntem foarte apropiați pentru că de fiecare dată punem suflet alături de sprijinul acordat. Am convingerea că un singur investitor privat nu poate produce minuni, dar mai mulți pot începe să le facă!\r\n\r\n- Când aveți puțin timp vă luați familia și călătoriți. Știu cum se vede o călătorie prin ochii unui jurnalist de travel, dar cum se vede ea prin ochii unor hotelieri tineri?\r\n\r\n- MARIUS: E o părere personală. Domeniul turismului are o frumusețe generoasă. Și l-am ales fără nicio impunere, condiționare din parte celor din jur. Dar ai mai puțin timp pentru tine, pentru familie, pentru că trebuie să-l aloci clienților tăi. În fața proiectului ambițios de la Herculane, nu ne-a rămas prea mult timp pentru vacanțe. Am călătorit în principal în scop profesional. De câte ori plecăm spre o destinație ne preocupă în principal să înțelegem în ce constau diferențele profitabile în industria ospitalității. În acest scop culegem și comparăm informații turistice. Multe dintre ele s-au dovedit foarte utile business-ului nostru. Dar vom aloca timp pentru vacanțe atunci când afacerile se vor așeza în tipare profitabile garantate. Dar cine deține rețeta magică?\r\n\r\n- Ce ați văzut și v-a plăcut în țară și străinătate? Unde n-ați fost și ați dori să ajungeți?\r\n\r\n- MARIUS: N-am fost în SUA, dar mi-am propus ca anul viitor să ajung. În țară nu am fost în Maramureș și Bucovina. În rest am frecventat toate orașele turistice românești din toate județele țării. Dacă ar fi să alcătuiesc un Top 3, din punct de vedere al infrastructurii și accesibilității turistice aș alege Cluj-Napoca, datorită gastronomiei pe care o promovează. Bucureștiul, de care nu poți face abstracție, e un oraș aglomerat, agitat, dar mie tocmai pentru asta îmi place că are ritmul unei metropole europene. Cred că al treilea ar fi Timișoara, pentru echilibru existent între cultură, natură și arhitectură, apropiat de Craiova, orașul meu natal în care, din păcate, am ajuns să petrec mai puțin timp decât mi-aș dori.\r\n\r\n- Mulțumesc!\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Interviu cu Florin si Marius Bazavan, INTERVIU nr.152','','inherit','closed','closed','','5423-revision-v1','','','2017-04-02 23:21:56','2017-04-02 21:21:56','',5423,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2017/04/02/5423-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5425,1,'2017-04-02 23:26:48','2017-04-02 21:26:48','Al 58-lea Congres al Federaţiei Internaţionale a Jurnaliştilor şi Editorilor de Turism (FIJET), găzduit de Moscova, a oferit celor circa 150 de ziarişti de travel posibilitatea de a descoperi „oglinzi” ale unei mari culturi care a marcat numeroase curente mondiale.\r\n![\"Rus](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Rus-015.jpg\")
\r\n\r\nÎn timpul alocat fam-tripurilor ne-am îndreptat mai întâi spre „Galeriile” Tretyakov. Considerate ca fiind cel mai mare muzeu al artei ruse şi sovietice acestea se află în casa lui Pavel Tretyakov, un mecena care şi-a donat colecţiile oraşului Moscova în anul...1892. Muzeul deţine peste 170.000 de opere de artă datând din secolul al 18-lea până în prezent. Din diversitatea de oferte expuse în galerii am optat pentru secţiunea portretistică şi secolul al 20-lea. Totul este o minune.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5482,5484,5485,5480,5481,5486,5487,5488,5489,5490,5491,5492\"]\r\n\r\nUn muzeu cu 8 milioane de... călători\r\n\r\nDacă atunci când v-aţi propus să vizitaţi metropola aţi luat în calcul şi variante combinate mers pe jos plus taxi noi vă recomandăm să uitaţi de acest scenariu. Este neproductiv şi arde la buzunar. Vă recomandăm să optaţi pentru Metrou. Nu vorbim numai de un mijloc rapid şi sigur ci şi de posibilitatea de a călătorii prin, probabil, cel mai mare muzeu subteran din lume. Zilnic peste 8 milioane de persoane folosesc metroul. A fost fondat în 1935 iar în prezent deţine 194 de staţii funcţionale şi 12 linii radiale în zona Ringului, inelului central. Alte 5 staţii se află în construcţie. Metroul moscoviţilor este considerat al treilea cel mai aglomerat din lume după cele din Tokyo şi Seul. Vă recomandăm să-l vizitaţi ca pe un muzeu în zilele de sâmbătă şi duminică. Staţiile sale istorice – din care amintim de Arbatskaya, Komsomolskaya, Prospekt Mira, Novoslobodskaya adăpostesc veritabile galerii de artă staliniste, leniniste ori nu, construite în marmură, bronz sau ornate cu vitralii, majoritatea realizări artistice de mare fineţe. Nu ne-am propus să abordăm conţinutul tematic, dar reflectăm totuşi la comparaţia că parcă o agricultoare cu spice aurii în braţe, dă mai bine decât un consumator de droguri rătăcit irecuperabil în lumea libertăţilor contemporane. Dacă doriţi să vă aventuraţi, cultural vorbind, e musai să vă opriţi în staţia Ploshchad decorată cu... 76 de sculpturi în bronz. Cel mai popular este grupul „Soldat cu câine”. Majoritatea trecătorilor mângâie botul patrupedului, un gest ce ţine de superstiţie dar şi de legendă. Pare că aduce mult noroc, cel puţin studenţilor la sesiunile de examene. În acelaşi timp evitaţi să atingeţi statuia femeii cu un cocoş în braţe - vă aduce ghinion. Aşa spun moscoviţii... Sfatul nostru - parcurgeţi un asemenea traseu însoţiţi de un ghid profesionist. Dacă însă doriţi să îmbinaţi cultura cu aventura, ei bine, atunci aflaţi că folosirea unor segmente de scări rulante de acces vă va oferi senzaţii similare ca acelea dintr-un roller coaster, din Orlando. Unghiurile de coborâre sunt foarte abrupte, înclinate, rapide şi lungi. Vă rămâne să strângeţi din dinţi şi să priviţi. Aveţi ce povesti.\r\n\r\nŞapte dealuri, şapte Case ale... Scânteii\r\n\r\nDupă vizita la metroul moscovit poţi crede că ai bifat o mare parte din punctele grele de văzut. Nu e aşa. O plimbare pe râul Moscova cu una din navele de croazieră fluviale aparţinând hotelului Radisson Royal, fost Ucraina, îţi oferă o altă perspectivă asupra oraşului. Flotila este alcătuită din 10 nave ce-ţi oferă toate facilităţile. Radisson Royal Hotel, este un „greu” pe segmentul ospitalităţii. Construit în 1957 el a fost modernizat în 2010 când a şi fost afiliat la brandul Rezidor Group. Clădirea, ce poartă amprenta stilului stalinist, este cam de două ori mai mare decât cea a Casei Presei Libere din Bucureşti. În cele 500 de camere de 5 stele dar şi în lobby ori holuri sunt expuse peste 1200 de opere de artă... originale. Cea mai vizionată este Diorama de la mezanin. Creată în 1977, în cinstea aniversării a 60 de ani de la victoria Revoluţiei bolşevice, ea poartă semnătura lui Efim Deshalyt. Artistul a reconstituit Kremlinul istoric sub forma unei ample machete 3D. Lucrarea este evaluată la circa 3 milioane de dolari. Nu întîmplător Radisson Royal a fost distins în 2015 cu World Travel Awards. Clădirea face parte din „cele 7 surori” amplasate pe 7 dealuri. Pentru că şi acest oraş se desfăşoară pe 7 coline ca Roma ori Iaşi. O altă clădire gigant, cu stea în frunte, găzduieşte celebra Academie Lomonosov. Aici am urmărit un impresionant spectacol de proiecţii efectuate pe faţada principală. Un alt mastodont din beton şi marmură modelat pe... 36 de etaje şi 240 de metri înălţime. Se spune că dacă intri în aceasta la vârsta de o zi, ca să vizitezi toate încăperile îţi trebuie circa... 27 de ani. Să tot studiezi. Dar Moscova nu nu se opreşte aici. 16 zgârie nori, clădirile futuriste vor forma miezul de business al Moscow City. Reîntorcându-ne la oferta hotelieră vom spune că nu trebuie să rataţi plăcerea unui cocktail – că se numesc „Stranger in Moscow” ori „Beauty of Moscow” contează mai puţin - la barul hotelului Metropol. Vă aflaţi într-o clădire inaugurată în 1905 ce oferă oaspeţilor aproape 400 de camere cu aer şi mobilier istoric. Relativ recent Metropol a activat în cadrul lanţului internaţional InterContinental. De la geamurile acestuia am admirat un nou spectacol de lumini proiectat chiar pe faţada Bolshoi Theatre din vecinătate, căci ne-am aflat în capitala Rusiei chiar în perioada Circle of Light Festival (Festivalului Luminilor). După care am vizitat veritabilul Hall of Fame de la etajul patru. Alături de mari personalităţi ce au locuit aici, de la Bill Clinton la Claudia Cardinale, se află şi fotografia cu autograf a celebrei soprane Mariana Nicolesco.\r\n\r\nO metropolă pentru tineri\r\n\r\nÎn fine Moscova este un oraş al paradoxurilor în funcţie de luminozitatea anotimpurilor.

Deşi şoselele sunt largi cu 4-5 benzi pe sens, marele oraş găfâie la orele de vârf. Moscova este un oraş dinamic care se adresează în principal tinerilor sau celor ce au timp de cheltuit fără restricţii.

Este de fapt o zonă comercială pentru turişti căci toate minunile şi curiozităţile artizanale sunt expuse aici. Două personaje domină piaţa suvenirurilor: Matruşca – în mii de variante (de la 15-20 de dolari până la câteva sute sau câteva mii de dolari, fireşte cele din urmă fiind pictate şi decorate în foiţă de aur. Vin din urmă foarte puternic păpuşile cu Vladimir Putin şi ceilalţi preşedinţi care au condus Rusia în ultimele aproape trei decenii. Preşedintele Putin pare să fie agentul turistic cel mai eficient pentru că la fel de căutate sunt tricourile, cănile, şorţurile de bucătărie, brelocurile imprimate cu Putin şi Obama, rusul fiind impunător în faţa americanului care pare cel puţin intimidat. În New Arbat poţi să vezi în magazinele de „antichităţi” ilustrarea întregului armament militar uşor, de la cuţite de baionetă, până la căciulile din lână cu care s-a supravieţuit în iernile cumplite ale războaielor mondiale.

Întâmplarea fericită face ca domnia sa să fi aniversat de curând o vârstă care nu o trădează în faţa proiectelelor de viaţă pe care le are. Eva este Scorpion ca şi fiul său Bogdan. A lucrat 22 de ani la ONT Carpaţi de unde a plecat pentru ca să înfiinţeze una dintre cele mai durabile agenţii private de turism. “Atlantic Tour” şi-a câştigat clienţii prin seriozitate şi calitate.
\r\nFirma a deschis pieţe pentru incoming şi outgoing, printre care China, India, Thailanda, Austria etc, pentru programe de City Break pe vremea când prea puţină lumea vorbea despre acestea. Destinaţiile interne preferate: Maramureş şi Bucovina. Un proiect de suflet, neîmplinit încă, îl reprezintă construirea unui hotel – cu circa 200 de camere în București -, tot cu numele Atlantic.
\r\n”Nu ne-au interesat găinăriile, tunurile. Se vorbește foarte des de neceistatea unei Legi a Turismului dar eu cred în primul rând că mai important decât acest lucru este crearea și consolidarea respectului față de, și între oamenii de afaceri din turism și români în general.Asta ar accelera schimbarea mentalității, dinamitarea gândirii de genul ”leafa merge, ziua trece, noi cu drag muncim!”.
\r\nDar și mentalitatea că fiecare când pornește într-o afacere, vrea să se îmbogățească peste noapte. De aceea fiecare își face o lege a lui, cu consecințe negative pentru alții foarte mulți, care operează în turism” – ne spunea sărbătorita. „La Mulţi Ani Eva Gligor!”

RADISSON Blu in Braşov\n\n
The spring of 2018 will bring in the city of Brasov the second Radisson Blu hotel in Romania. Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group, the owner of the brand, and Tresor Com, controlled by Neamtu Family in Brasov, signed in November the franchise contract for the new hotel. Radisson Blu Brasov will be located in the historical area, opposite the City Hall and will probably be rated 5 stars. The estimated 10 million Euros investment will conclude in a hotel unit with 105 rooms, restaurants, conference facilities, bar, SPA & fitness area, etc.
\nTresor Com bought in 2015, from Telekom Romania, a building in central Brasov, in order to convert it into a hotel. In Romania the Carlson Rezidor Group operates the Radisson Blu and Park Inn by Radisson hotels in Bucharest.
\nMYIA KOSEI: “The beauty in the hearts of the Romanians is fascinating for me!”\n\n
The Cãrturești Verona Tea House in Bucharest has been once again the witness of a love declaration. This was performed by the Japanese Myia Kosei that presented to the public a photo album dedicated to the Romanian historical region of Maramures.
\n“The color photos are like a theatre play of colors (…) they relate to each other in a most subtle way, in order to create a wonderful show. They compose poems. Goethe used to say that they spring from the combination of the beauty of the nature and the human sense of the sight. I am largely attracted by the natural beauty and the beauty in humans’ souls. Romanian people always make a wonderfully shaped composition” – said Myia Kosei.
\nVirgil Ștefan Nițulescu, editor in chief of Revista muzeelor appreciates that “Myia Kosei is seduced by the scenery offered by the traditional man. He says that life in the villages of Maramures is changing and we should not force people embrace change just for the sake of it.” Myia Kosei has been travelling in the country and photographing Romania for over 50 years.
\nSIBIU – European Region of Gastronomy in 2019\n\n
The City of Sibiu in Romania and the South Egeean Region of Greece (that includes the islands of Santorini, Mykonos, Rodos and Patmos) were named the European Regions of Gastronomy of 2019. The title is given every year by the International Institute for Gastronomy, Culture, Arts and Tourism (IGCAT), with the support of several European Institutions. Its goal is to stimulate innovation in gastronomy and to encourage tourism. Due to its new title of European Region of Gastronomy - Sibiul will host in 2019 several events related to local gastronomy. The benefits will expand to travel and education as well, several of the programmes planned promoting healthy food concepts and the responsible usage of food sources” - said Astrid Fodor, Mayor of Sibiu.

\nMARIUS BAZAVAN: “The BACOLUX chain is growing slowly but strong!”
\nThe story started with a small unit in Craiova, followed by a tourist pension in Bușteni resort (Prahova Valley) and in 2011 two large hotels were added - Diana and Afrodita in the SPA resort of Băile Herculane. Today Bacolux is a hotel chain that ownes and offers about 1000 rooms on the Romanian travel market.
\nMarian Bazavan (53 years old), having over 30 years experience in the travel business, is the founder and owner of the chain. His sons Marius and Florin Bazavan, are the managers and business developers. In an interview for our magazine Marius said: ”the story of Bacolux chain started having as its engine the wish to contribute in relaunching an important part of the local hotel industry, through our two hotels in Băile Herculane – a SPA and cure resort established by the Romans. Our aim is to form young managers and teams to perform and get to feel the taste of success. The Bacolux chain is growing slowly but strong. Now we concentrate on the present, but this does not mean that we do not already think at the next possible investments!”

The Cãrturești Verona Tea House in Bucharest has been once again the witness of a love declaration. This was performed by the Japanese Myia Kosei that presented to the public a photo album dedicated to the Romanian historical region of Maramures.
\r\n“The color photos are like a theatre play of colors (…) they relate to each other in a most subtle way, in order to create a wonderful show. They compose poems. Goethe used to say that they spring from the combination of the beauty of the nature and the human sense of the sight. I am largely attracted by the natural beauty and the beauty in humans’ souls. Romanian people always make a wonderfully shaped composition” – said Myia Kosei.
\r\nVirgil Ștefan Nițulescu, editor in chief of Revista muzeelor appreciates that “Myia Kosei is seduced by the scenery offered by the traditional man. He says that life in the villages of Maramures is changing and we should not force people embrace change just for the sake of it.” Myia Kosei has been travelling in the country and photographing Romania for over 50 years.
\r\nSIBIU – European Region of Gastronomy in 2019\r\n\r\n

\r\nMARIUS BAZAVAN: “The BACOLUX chain is growing slowly but strong!”
\r\nThe story started with a small unit in Craiova, followed by a tourist pension in Bușteni resort (Prahova Valley) and in 2011 two large hotels were added - Diana and Afrodita in the SPA resort of Băile Herculane. Today Bacolux is a hotel chain that ownes and offers about 1000 rooms on the Romanian travel market.
\r\nMarian Bazavan (53 years old), having over 30 years experience in the travel business, is the founder and owner of the chain. His sons Marius and Florin Bazavan, are the managers and business developers. In an interview for our magazine Marius said: ”the story of Bacolux chain started having as its engine the wish to contribute in relaunching an important part of the local hotel industry, through our two hotels in Băile Herculane – a SPA and cure resort established by the Romans. Our aim is to form young managers and teams to perform and get to feel the taste of success. The Bacolux chain is growing slowly but strong. Now we concentrate on the present, but this does not mean that we do not already think at the next possible investments!”

De la debut, în aprilie 2014, evenimentele au reunit peste 700 de specialiști din domeniul medical, operatori și autorități din turismul românesc dar și de peste hotare. Noua ediție a avut ca generic „Băile Herculane, mai mult decât apă – Wellness, energie și viață” şi a atras experţi şi specialişti din acest domeniu sau de pe segmente conexe.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Conferința găzduită de Hotelul Afrodita – de unde nu au lipsit Ambasadorii Băilor Herculane -, şi-a propus să dezvolte promovarea și prezentarea terapiilor ce folosesc apele cu proprietăți speciale ale zonei, în contextul noilor tendințe de wellness din Europa. Un punct central al asociației rămâne în continuare promovarea prevenției cât și a unui stil de viață sănătos și o valorificare corectă a resurselor naturale și istorice ale zonei. ,, Ne bucurăm că echipa noastră și numărul membrilor asociației a crescut considerabil în ultimul an, ceea ce ne dă încrederea nu numai că suntem pe drumul cel bun dar şi că staţiunea are un viitor certificat de resursele naturale. Aceste evenimente sunt o ocazie minunată ca toți cei implicați în dezvoltarea zonei să profite de platforma de comunicarea deja realizată, loc unde putem genera proiecte pentru viitor” – a declarat Marinela Badea, președintele Asociației Pro Turism Herculane. Detalii despre conţinutul dezbaterilor în numărul viitor.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\nAmbasador al Băilor Herculane \r\nMYIA KOSEI: “Mã fascineazã frumusetea din sufletul românilor!”\r\n\r\n
Ceainãria Cãrturești Verona din Capitalã a fost din nou martorul unei declaraþii de dragoste. Ea a fost fãcutã de artistul nipon Myia Kosei care face fotografii în România de mai bine de 5 decenii. Evenimentul a fost personalizat prin lansarea albumului dedicat Maramureșului. „Fotografiile în culori sunt un teatru în culori. Cum spunea Goethe, toate culorile sunt vectori între alb și negru. Ele se întrețes unele cu altele într-un fel subtil, pentru a pune în scenã un spectacol minunat. Ele compun poeme. Goethe spunea cã ele apar în coloaborarea dintre frumusețea naturii și simțul omenesc al vederii.\r\n\r\n
Sunt foarte atras de frumusețea naturalã și de frumusețea din sufletele oamenilor. Românii dau mereu o compoziție de o formã minunatã” – aprecia Myia Kosei. Virgil Ștefan Nițulescu, redactor-șef al Revistei muzeelor considera la rândul sãu cã “Myia Kosei e sedus funciarmente, de peisajul creat de omul tradițional. El ne spune cã viața satelelor maramureșene se schimbã, dar nu este cazul sã îi forțãm pe acești oameni sã adopte schimbarea de dragul acesteia, așa cum ar fi o prostie sã îi îndrepãrtãm, în ritm gimnastic, de sensurile legãturilor tainice cu strãmoșii.”

\r\nCENTRU PENTRU CONVENȚIA CARPATICĂ\r\n\r\nMinisterul Economiei va înființa un Centru Român de Coordonare a Convenției Carpatice privind Turismul Durabil în Munții Carpați. El va avea sediul la Brașov, și va gestiona circulația și destinațiile turistice din Carpați. Centrul va avea cinci posturi, iar cheltuielile de personal sunt estimate la 25.000 lei pe lună. El va funcționa în cadrul ANT. Reprezentanții statelor membre ale inițiativei regionale Convenția Carpatică sunt Ucraina, Cehia, Slovacia, Ungaria, Serbia, Muntenegru, România și Polonia, pe teritoriul cărora se află Munții Carpați. Convenția-cadru pentru protecția și dezvoltarea durabilă a Carpaților a fost semnată în 2003 și a devenit operațională din 4 ianuarie 2006.\r\n\r\nAUTORITATEA NAȚIONALĂ PENTRU TURISM (ANT)\r\n\r\n ...a anunțat că va autoriza 12 noi stațiuni turistice. Conform evaluărilor specialiștilor acestei instituții vor primi acest statut: comuna Sucevița (jud. Suceava), comuna Pojorâta (Suceava), Băile Banffy-Toplița (Harghita), Borsec (Harghita), Negrești-Oaș, (Satu Mare), Băile Ocna Dej, (Cluj), comuna Sângiorgiu de Mureș (Mureș), localitatea Colibița (Bistrița Năsăud), Moinești (Bacău), comuna Baia de Fier (Gorj), comuna Boghiș (Sălaj), comuna Moisei (Maramureș). Atestarea stațiunilor turistice permite, pe lângă dezvoltarea socio-economică a acestor localități, posibilitatea de accesare a unor fonduri europene în scopul dezvoltării și reconversiei zonelor respective. \r\n\r\n„SĂ CONTINUĂM COOPERAREA!” Conferinţa de lansare a Programului Interreg V-A România-Ungaria, organizată sub deviza “Să continuăm cooperarea!”, a fost găzduită de Oradea. La eveniment a fost prezentat stadiul implementării programului, a perspectivelor de cooperare, precum şi a iniţiativelor transfrontaliere materializate. Conferinţa a reunit peste 150 de participanţi din ambele state partenere. Evenimentul a inclus şi o expoziţie de fotografii realizate de cunoscutul artist orădean Ovi D. Pop. În acord cu poziţia Comisiei Europene, respectiv orientarea către proiecte de impact şi obţinerea de rezultate, Autoritatea de Management a oferit informaţii legate de calendarul lansării apelurilor de proiecte. Programul Interreg V-A România-Ungaria finanþeazã proiecte româno-ungare, care abordeazã nevoi identificate pe ambele laturi ale graniþei ºi necesitã o abordare comunã.

Federația Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR) apreciază demersurile ce au permis curățarea pieței de turism, măsură pe care hotelierii au solicitat-o de mult timp. În contextul actual, hotelierii vor fi mult mai atenți cu ce agenții de turism vor colabora pe viitor, mai ales că aproape 40 de agenții dintre cele care și-au pierdut licența erau membre ANAT. FPTR consideră că această măsura trebuie aplicată și în cazul hotelurilor și al restaurantelor pentru ca industria turismului să funcționeze corect, transparent și în favoarea clientului final. Este nevoie de o listă completă cu hotelurile, unde să apară nu doar clasificarea, ci și societatea de care aparție unitatea. FPTR reprezintă angajatori a peste 33.000 de salariați, cu o cifră de afaceri cumulată de peste 5 miliarde de euro -\r\na declarat Nicolae Bucovală, Prim-vicepreşedinte FPTR.\r\n\r\n\r\n4 NOI AUTOBUZE\r\n\r\nDupă ce a constatat că linia turistică Bucharest City Tour este destul de rentabilă (circa 190.000 de lei profit în 2015) Regia Autonoma de Transport București (RATB) a anunțat că și-a propus să achiziționeze 4 autobuze noi cu etaj ce vor fi utilizate în acest scop. Valoarea totală a contractului se ridică la circa 4 milioane de lei, plus TVA. Până în prezent transportatorul utiliza autobuze închiriate de la Regia Autonomă de Transport din Comun Constanța (RATC), pentru care plătea 645.000 de lei, plus TVA, pentru 6 luni de exploatare (în intervalul 15 mai - 15 octombrie al fiecărui an).

Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group şi Societatea Tresor Com au semnat un Contract de franciză pentru dezvoltarea şi operarea în Braşov a primului hotel din zonă afiliat acestui brand.\n\nRadisson BLU Braşov va fi situat în perimetrul centrului istoric, pe strada Eroilor nr. 23, vis-à-vis de Parcul Central, în apropierea principalelor atracţii turistice ale oraşului şi a zonei de business. Hotelul va dispune de 105 camere, restaurante, spaţii de conferinţe, bar, centru SPA & fitness şi va fi inaugurat în prima parte a anului 2018. Investiţia, ce va genera circa 100 de noi locuri de muncă, este estimată la aproximativ 10 milioane de euro. “Ne dorim ca în această locaţie să aducem excelenţa în serviciile hoteliere de care toți braşovenii să fie mândri şi, astfel, să sprijinim dezvoltarea pieţei hoteliere locale şi să contribuim la promovarea oraşului Braşov.\n\nApreciem că lucrările vor dura cel mult 2 ani” - a declarat Ramona Neamţu, reprezentanta grupului de investitori.\n\nCompania Tresor Com a cumpărat în 2015, de la Telekom România, un imobil situat în centrul oraşului Braşov cu scopul de a dezvolta un hotel. Mircea Drăghici, prin firma EST Hospitality, a fost selectat consultant al proiectului, oferind - în baza unui studiu de piaţă şi fezabilitate - solutia optimă de utilizare pentru clădirea viitorului hotel. Totodată, pe baza rezultatelor studiului de piaţă fost selectat brandul Radisson BLU.\n\nManagementul de proiect pentru activitatea de dezvoltare este realizat de Daniel Dediu, prin firma Creative Management. Unul dintre cei mai importanţi furnizori de resurse umane superior calificate va fi Şcoală hotelieră internaţională din Braşov (American Hotel Academy/Manchester Metropolitan University).\n\n“Prezenta unui brand hotelier international important în Braşov ar trebui să contribuie la creşterea calităţii serviciilor hoteliere locale, dar şi la lărgirea oportunităţilor profesionale pentru studeţii şi absolvenţii American Hotel Academy şi ai altor şcoli de specialitate din regiune” - a subliniat Dl. Sebastian Georgescu, Director General al American Hotel Academy Braşov.\n\nTRANZACŢII\nS-a vândut Meseş\nSIF Hoteluri, deţinută de SIF Banat-Crişana, a vândut prin licitaţie (cu doi participanţi) hotelul Meseş din Zalău cu 8,8 milioane de lei. Preţul de pornire a fost de 5,55 milioane. Unitatea este clasificată la 3 stele, are 60 de locuri de cazare, dispune de restaurant propriu cu o capacitate de 120 de locuri, o sală de conferinţe de 60 de locuri, grădină de vară şi parcare.

Hotelul are 13 etaje şi peste 220 de camere, fiind construit pe un teren de aproape 9.000 de metri pătraţi. SRI îi va ridica standardul de la 2 la 3 stele, păstrându-l însă într-un circuit închis şi rezervat pentru relaxarea ofiţerilor de informaţii şi a familiilor acestora.\n\nDupă cum se estimează lucrările de modernizare vor fi incheiate în circa doi ani. În ultimii ani, când se afla în portofoliul Agenţiei Naţionale a Funcţionarilor Publici, hotelul Maramureş din Olimp ajunsese într-o fază de paragină greu de descris. El a fost trecut cu un an în urmă însă, printr-o hotărâre de guvern, de la Ministerul Dezvoltării Regionale la SRI.\nArsenal intră într-o nouă rundă\n\nDupă mai multe etape de investiţii oamenii de afaceri Emil şi Marius Cristescu au anunţat că vor investi în total circa 20 milioane de euro în Arsenal Park, parte din aceşti bani provenind din fonduri europene nerambursabile.\nArsenal Park are 230 de locuri de cazare, peste 10 obiective de turism de aventură şi este întins pe 80 de hectare. Ultima investiţie din Arsenal Park, AquaParq Arsenal, a fost dată în folosinţă la jumătatea acestui an şi s-a ridicat la 7 miioane de euro, din care 3 milioane nerambursabili, a declarat Romina Faur, director de proiect la Arsenal Park.\n\nAqua Park Arsenal include 3 zone distincte: SunWaves, Inner Bliss si Belvedere Lounge&Terasa.

Se vede de pe acum!”\n\n\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_5471\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"1024\"] Florin Bazavan[/caption]\n\nDoi frați. Total diferiți. Au viteze, stiluri diferite de abordare în management. Când iau însă deciziile de business se sincronizează foarte bine. Aproape nimeni nu știa de ei până în urmă cu câțiva ani. Au apărut pe piața hotelieră după relansarea hotelurilor Afrodita și Diana din Băile Herculane. Atunci s-a poziționat pe piața investitorilor în turism familia Bazavan, din Craiova. Marian Bazavan capul familiei, are 53 de ani dar și o experiență de circa 30 de ani în turism. Florin (30 de ani, absolvent al Facultății de Relații internaționale și administrație publică de la ASE) și Marius (absolvent a 2 facultăți - Drept, respectiv Turism de la Universitate, ulterior Masterat la ASE) sunt fii, iar din 2011 manageri ai acestor proprietăți, parte din lanțul Bacolux. El e format din 4 unități - 1 hotel la Craiova (Craiovița), 2 la Herculane, respectiv o proprietate mai mică la Bușteni. De aici începe o altă poveste. Împreună am căutat să-i luăm pulsul.\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_5472\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"1024\"] Marius Bazavan[/caption]\n\n- Ce experiențe doriți să dezvoltați prin lanțul Bacolux? Unde doriți să-l poziționați ca brand?\n\n-MARIUS: Bacolux a plecat de la o poveste. Și încercăm să o spunem cât mai frumos pentru turismul românesc. Cred că este un domeniu palpitant, dar - și asta nu se vede -, în care trebuie să faci multe sacrificii. Am dorit să transformăm aceste sacrificii într-un succes și să urcăm hotelurile pe care le operăm într-o poziție superioară. Dorim să fim printre cei mai buni. Am plecat de la o locație mică iar în acest moment am ajuns la 1.000 de locuri de cazare.\n\n\n- Ați stabilit ”cartierul general” al priorităților la Băile Herculane. După ce ați investit milioane de euro într-o stațiune care mai are mult până să renască apreciați că zona balneară prezintă un mare risc?\n\n- FLORIN: Da, cartierul general este acum la Băile Herculane, deoarece acolo avem cea mai mare concentrare a business-ului turistic. Eu o văd ca pe o fază de tranziție, deoarece acest cartier se poate muta și în alte orașe unde e posibil să dezvoltăm noi investiții, la Craiova, de ce nu București etc. Acum suntem preocupați mai ales de prezent, dar privim spre viitor. Da, a fost o decizie riscantă să cumpărăm într-o stațiune balneară istorică, dar destul de avariată. Cred însă că așa se deschid oportunități pentru succes, dacă nu riști nu ai cum să simți gustul victoriei. A fost o decizie, cum să spun, nebunească. Pentru noi era o piață cu multe necunoscute. A fost și o decizie de suflet, pentru că o parte din copilăria noastră am trăit-o cu părinții aici la Herculane. În mod sigur a fost și o conexiune, un reflex sufletesc al amintirilor.\n\n\n- Da, dar când e vorba de milioane de euro investiți, amintirile țin loc doar de gablonțuri strălucitoare ...\n\n- MARIUS: Este adevărat. Totul a plecat de la opțiunile tatălui nostru Marian, care a rămas foarte marcat când a văzut în ce paragină ajunseseră hoteluri respective. I s-a strâns inima. După negocieri îndelungate a fost perfectată cumpărarea hotelului Diana ulterior fiind achiziționat și Afrodita situat mai jos. Ideea a fost să ne protejăm investițiile de un eventual amator, care cine știe ce ar fi făcut în vecinătatea noastră.\n\n\n- Cum arată colaborarea cu administrația locală de stat?\n\n- MARIUS: Da, noi am încercat să facem tot timpul ceea ce am învățat și știm să facem foarte bine. Să nu așteptăm o minimă apreciere a administrației din zonă. Să facem lucrurile cât putem de bine. Dar în lumea civilizată, se mai întâmplă ceva. Administrația, organele statului sprijină creșterea afacerilor pentru că sunt direct interesate, într-un parteneriat pe termen lung. Aș putea afirma despre acest subiect că avem o colaborare normală și decentă. A fost tot timpul una decentă. Nu și una fructuoasă. Noi ne dorim să fie așa pentru stațiune. Cred că este o problemă de corelare a ideilor noastre cu cele publice. Dacă ne-am fi intersectat mai bine evoluția stațiunii ar fi fost una mai accelerată. Dar n-aș vrea să se înțeleagă că există o tensiune între părți. Dacă ne uităm pe rapoartele INS, vedem că odată cu deschidere celor două hoteluri (după 2012) numărul turiștilor a crescut cu circa 47% față de perioada anterioară. Plus 250 de familii cre și-au găsit un loc de muncă în aceste unități. Prezentul arată că stațiunea se mișcă și în zona infrastructurii rutiere, a amenajărilor urbane. Peste 80% din străzi sunt asfaltate, Parcul Central e refăcut după un concept armonios, plăcut, trotuarele au fost reabilitate. Mai rămân câteva porțiuni ale drumurilor, printre care și cel către Afrodita și Diana, respectiv mici zone din Centru istoric.\n\n\n- Știu că sunteți partizani ai impulsionării și dezvoltării turismului de evenimente - MICE, mai concentrat exprimat. În afară de mai mulți turiști și mai mulți bani încasați, ce alte avantaje de valoare poate genera acesta pe piața bucureșteană și, în general, în România?\n\n- FLORIN: Avantajul principal este sănătatea. Băile Herculane este o zonă cu resurse natura extrem de bogate și inepuizabile. Asta dacă vom ști să le protejăm. Apele termale sulfuroase renumite încă de pe vremea romanilor, aerul puternic ionizat, spațiile naturale fantastice. Avantajul cel mai important e sănătatea câștigată și recâștigată de turiștii care vin la Băile Herculane.\n\n\n- N-ați fost tentați să lucrați în hoteluri din străinătate sau în hoteluri străine din Romania?\n\n- MARIUS: Ține de o situație tehnică și de posibilitățile vieții. Dacă ar fi să dau timpul înapoi și să schimb datele lui, aș face acest lucru. E unul dintre regretele mele personale că nu am lucrat într-un lanț internațional pentru a mă familiariza cu standarde și proceduri specifice unei companii străine. Dar n-a depins nici de mine nici de Florin. În 2011 după ce am terminat facultatea, după două săptămâni am plecat direct la Herculane. Pentru că investițiile trebuiau să se miște rapid. Am fost presați de timp să ne implicăm direct, personal și profesional. Dacă nu am fi făcut-o la nivel managerial, de formare a echipei și stabilirea de standarde funcționale, probabil totul ar fi durat mai mult. Ar fi însemnat pierdere de timp și de bani.\n\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5469,5471,5472,5473,5476,5477,5474,5475\"]\n\n- S-a investit mult în hoteluri, în reconstrucția lor? Mulți oameni de afaceri au uitat că hotelurile sunt construite pentru oameni iar serviciile nu sunt furnizate de roboți. În ultimii ani au apărut scenarii alarmante privitoare la resursele umane. Este forța de muncă din turism desincronizată față de cererile lansate?\n\n- FLORIN: Mulți oameni de afaceri uită că oamenii sunt sufletul serviciilor în turism, cu precădere. Noi credem că n-am uitat acest lucru. Ne-a preocupat să sprijinim business-ul pe o echipă tânără, cu apetit pentru performanță, deschisă și flexibilă. De la început am investit în oameni, le-am creat un mediu adecvat, stimulator de a lucra. Nimeni nu neagă că forța de muncă e un aspect sensibil în turism. Dar trebuie să demontez câteva ”mituri”. Mai întâi că în turism se câștigă puțin și se muncește mult. Poate nu se cîștigă cât ar dori fiecare. Dar se câștigă. Sunt o serie de condițiile favorabile muncii și ele valoarează mai mult decât câteva sute de lei. Depinde cum privești lucrurile. Apoi, că tinerii vin slab pregătiți și că nu avem școli de formare. În anumite domenii poate e mai bine ca tinerii să vină fără prejudecăți învechite, fără să fie deformați prin cunoștințe inoperabile într-un hotel modern. În fiecare hotel există o cultură organizațională a muncii diferită, în funcție de cerințele managementului și așteptările patronilor. E un aspect sensibil, recunoaștem. Sperăm că tinerii se vor orienta într-un număr din ce în ce mai mare spre acest domeniu, și vor echilibra balanța cererii și oferte. Dacă e bine gestionat, domeniul turistic îți permite să răsplătești oamenii pe măsura muncii. Credem în dezvoltarea lanțului nostru. Nu o facem într-un mod accelerat ci sănătos, aș spune organic.\n\n- Sunteți foarte receptivi la propuneri venite din zona parteneriatelor media, a asociațiilor ori organizațiior care susțin evenimente de prestigiu? Asociația Pro Turism este una dintre acestea. Sunt puțini proprietarii care se implică în asemenea colaborări. Cum explicăm acest lucru? \n\n-FLORIN: Ne dorim o promovare mai intensă a stațiunii. Are nevoie de acest lucru după anii de tăcere completă. Multe aspecte au fost uitate, deci ele trebuiesc readuse în atenția tinerelor generații. Lumea modernă se așteaptă la un alt discurs influențat masiv de noile tehnologii de comunicare. Mai flexibile, mai rapide și, uneori, eficiente. Asta încearcă să facă la fiecare ediție, și cred că au ajuns la a VI-a, Asociația Pro Turism. Turismul e vectorul care poate creea plus-valoare Băilor Herculane. Pentru că ne-am dorit o vizibilitate mai mare am apelat la o echipă de tineri, aș putea să spunem, cel puțin la fel de nebuni ca investitorii din familia noastră. Le-am propus un asemenea scenariu inter-activ iar sprijinul nostru este necondiționat. Suntem foarte apropiați pentru că de fiecare dată punem suflet alături de sprijinul acordat. Am convingerea că un singur investitor privat nu poate produce minuni, dar mai mulți pot începe să le facă!\n\n- Când aveți puțin timp vă luați familia și călătoriți. Știu cum se vede o călătorie prin ochii unui jurnalist de travel, dar cum se vede ea prin ochii unor hotelieri tineri?\n\n- MARIUS: E o părere personală. Domeniul turismului are o frumusețe generoasă. Și l-am ales fără nicio impunere, condiționare din parte celor din jur. Dar ai mai puțin timp pentru tine, pentru familie, pentru că trebuie să-l aloci clienților tăi. În fața proiectului ambițios de la Herculane, nu ne-a rămas prea mult timp pentru vacanțe. Am călătorit în principal în scop profesional. De câte ori plecăm spre o destinație ne preocupă în principal să înțelegem în ce constau diferențele profitabile în industria ospitalității. În acest scop culegem și comparăm informații turistice. Multe dintre ele s-au dovedit foarte utile business-ului nostru. Dar vom aloca timp pentru vacanțe atunci când afacerile se vor așeza în tipare profitabile garantate. Dar cine deține rețeta magică?\n\n- Ce ați văzut și v-a plăcut în țară și străinătate? Unde n-ați fost și ați dori să ajungeți?\n\n- MARIUS: N-am fost în SUA, dar mi-am propus ca anul viitor să ajung. În țară nu am fost în Maramureș și Bucovina. În rest am frecventat toate orașele turistice românești din toate județele țării. Dacă ar fi să alcătuiesc un Top 3, din punct de vedere al infrastructurii și accesibilității turistice aș alege Cluj-Napoca, datorită gastronomiei pe care o promovează. Bucureștiul, de care nu poți face abstracție, e un oraș aglomerat, agitat, dar mie tocmai pentru asta îmi place că are ritmul unei metropole europene. Cred că al treilea ar fi Timișoara, pentru echilibru existent între cultură, natură și arhitectură, apropiat de Craiova, orașul meu natal în care, din păcate, am ajuns să petrec mai puțin timp decât mi-aș dori.\n\n- Mulțumesc!\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Interviu cu Florin si Marius Bazavan, INTERVIU nr.152','','inherit','closed','closed','','5423-autosave-v1','','','2017-04-03 00:39:33','2017-04-02 22:39:33','',5423,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2017/04/03/5423-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5471,1,'2017-04-03 00:23:29','2017-04-02 22:23:29','','Florin Bazavan 44','','inherit','open','closed','','florin-bazavan-44','','','2017-04-03 00:23:29','2017-04-02 22:23:29','',5423,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Florin-Bazavan-44.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5472,1,'2017-04-03 00:24:08','2017-04-02 22:24:08','Marius Bazavan','Marius Bazavan 2','Marius Bazavan','inherit','open','closed','','marius-bazavan-2','','','2017-04-03 00:24:31','2017-04-02 22:24:31','',5423,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Marius-Bazavan-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5473,1,'2017-04-03 00:24:59','2017-04-02 22:24:59','','Hotel Afrodita Herculane','','inherit','open','closed','','hotel-afrodita-herculane','','','2017-04-03 00:24:59','2017-04-02 22:24:59','',5423,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Hotel-Afrodita-Herculane.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5474,1,'2017-04-03 00:25:39','2017-04-02 22:25:39','','Hotel event Herculane','','inherit','open','closed','','hotel-event-herculane','','','2017-04-03 00:25:39','2017-04-02 22:25:39','',5423,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Hotel-event-Herculane.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5475,1,'2017-04-03 00:25:55','2017-04-02 22:25:55','','Hotel Herculane 2','','inherit','open','closed','','hotel-herculane-2','','','2017-04-03 00:25:55','2017-04-02 22:25:55','',5423,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Hotel-Herculane-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5476,1,'2017-04-03 00:26:12','2017-04-02 22:26:12','','Hotel Herculane','','inherit','open','closed','','hotel-herculane','','','2017-04-03 00:26:12','2017-04-02 22:26:12','',5423,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Hotel-Herculane.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5477,1,'2017-04-03 00:26:32','2017-04-02 22:26:32','','Hotel Herculane1','','inherit','open','closed','','hotel-herculane1','','','2017-04-03 00:26:32','2017-04-02 22:26:32','',5423,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Hotel-Herculane1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5478,1,'2017-04-03 00:27:36','2017-04-02 22:27:36','FLORIN & MARIUS BAZAVAN: “Bacolux este un brand care va crește organic.

Au viteze, stiluri diferite de abordare în management. Când iau însă deciziile de business se sincronizează foarte bine. Aproape nimeni nu știa de ei până în urmă cu câțiva ani. Au apărut pe piața hotelieră după relansarea hotelurilor Afrodita și Diana din Băile Herculane. Atunci s-a poziționat pe piața investitorilor în turism familia Bazavan, din Craiova. Marian Bazavan capul familiei, are 53 de ani dar și o experiență de circa 30 de ani în turism. Florin (30 de ani, absolvent al Facultății de Relații internaționale și administrație publică de la ASE) și Marius (absolvent a 2 facultăți - Drept, respectiv Turism de la Universitate, ulterior Masterat la ASE) sunt fii, iar din 2011 manageri ai acestor proprietăți, parte din lanțul Bacolux. El e format din 4 unități - 1 hotel la Craiova (Craiovița), 2 la Herculane, respectiv o proprietate mai mică la Bușteni. De aici începe o altă poveste. Împreună am căutat să-i luăm pulsul.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_5472\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"1024\"] Marius Bazavan[/caption]\r\n\r\n- Ce experiențe doriți să dezvoltați prin lanțul Bacolux? Unde doriți să-l poziționați ca brand?\r\n\r\n-MARIUS: Bacolux a plecat de la o poveste. Și încercăm să o spunem cât mai frumos pentru turismul românesc.

Cred că al treilea ar fi Timișoara, pentru echilibru existent între cultură, natură și arhitectură, apropiat de Craiova, orașul meu natal în care, din păcate, am ajuns să petrec mai puțin timp decât mi-aș dori.\r\n\r\n- Mulțumesc!\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','Interviu cu Florin si Marius Bazavan, INTERVIU nr.152','','inherit','closed','closed','','5423-revision-v1','','','2017-04-03 00:27:36','2017-04-02 22:27:36','',5423,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2017/04/03/5423-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5479,1,'2017-04-03 00:28:55','2017-04-02 22:28:55','','Rus 015','','inherit','open','closed','','rus-015','','','2017-04-03 00:28:55','2017-04-02 22:28:55','',5425,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Rus-015.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5480,1,'2017-04-03 00:29:29','2017-04-02 22:29:29','','Moscova diorama Radisson','','inherit','open','closed','','moscova-diorama-radisson','','','2017-04-03 00:29:29','2017-04-02 22:29:29','',5425,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Moscova-diorama-Radisson.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5481,1,'2017-04-03 00:29:31','2017-04-02 22:29:31','','Radisson Blue Ucraina','','inherit','open','closed','','radisson-blue-ucraina','','','2017-04-03 00:29:31','2017-04-02 22:29:31','',5425,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Radisson-Blue-Ucraina.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5482,1,'2017-04-03 00:29:32','2017-04-02 22:29:32','','Rus 002','','inherit','open','closed','','rus-002','','','2017-04-03 00:29:32','2017-04-02 22:29:32','',5425,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Rus-002.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5483,1,'2017-04-03 00:30:49','2017-04-02 22:30:49','Al 58-lea Congres al Federaţiei Internaţionale a Jurnaliştilor şi Editorilor de Turism (FIJET), găzduit de Moscova, a oferit celor circa 150 de ziarişti de travel posibilitatea de a descoperi „oglinzi” ale unei mari culturi care a marcat numeroase curente mondiale.\n\n\nÎn timpul alocat fam-tripurilor ne-am îndreptat mai întâi spre „Galeriile” Tretyakov. Considerate ca fiind cel mai mare muzeu al artei ruse şi sovietice acestea se află în casa lui Pavel Tretyakov, un mecena care şi-a donat colecţiile oraşului Moscova în anul...1892. Muzeul deţine peste 170.000 de opere de artă datând din secolul al 18-lea până în prezent. Din diversitatea de oferte expuse în galerii am optat pentru secţiunea portretistică şi secolul al 20-lea. Totul este o minune.\n\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5482,5484,5485,5480,5481,5486,5487,5488,5489,5490,5491,5492\"]\n\nUn muzeu cu 8 milioane de... călători\n\nDacă atunci când v-aţi propus să vizitaţi metropola aţi luat în calcul şi variante combinate mers pe jos plus taxi noi vă recomandăm să uitaţi de acest scenariu. Este neproductiv şi arde la buzunar. Vă recomandăm să optaţi pentru Metrou. Nu vorbim numai de un mijloc rapid şi sigur ci şi de posibilitatea de a călătorii prin, probabil, cel mai mare muzeu subteran din lume. Zilnic peste 8 milioane de persoane folosesc metroul. A fost fondat în 1935 iar în prezent deţine 194 de staţii funcţionale şi 12 linii radiale în zona Ringului, inelului central. Alte 5 staţii se află în construcţie. Metroul moscoviţilor este considerat al treilea cel mai aglomerat din lume după cele din Tokyo şi Seul. Vă recomandăm să-l vizitaţi ca pe un muzeu în zilele de sâmbătă şi duminică. Staţiile sale istorice – din care amintim de Arbatskaya, Komsomolskaya, Prospekt Mira, Novoslobodskaya adăpostesc veritabile galerii de artă staliniste, leniniste ori nu, construite în marmură, bronz sau ornate cu vitralii, majoritatea realizări artistice de mare fineţe. Nu ne-am propus să abordăm conţinutul tematic, dar reflectăm totuşi la comparaţia că parcă o agricultoare cu spice aurii în braţe, dă mai bine decât un consumator de droguri rătăcit irecuperabil în lumea libertăţilor contemporane. Dacă doriţi să vă aventuraţi, cultural vorbind, e musai să vă opriţi în staţia Ploshchad decorată cu... 76 de sculpturi în bronz. Cel mai popular este grupul „Soldat cu câine”. Majoritatea trecătorilor mângâie botul patrupedului, un gest ce ţine de superstiţie dar şi de legendă. Pare că aduce mult noroc, cel puţin studenţilor la sesiunile de examene. În acelaşi timp evitaţi să atingeţi statuia femeii cu un cocoş în braţe - vă aduce ghinion. Aşa spun moscoviţii... Sfatul nostru - parcurgeţi un asemenea traseu însoţiţi de un ghid profesionist. Dacă însă doriţi să îmbinaţi cultura cu aventura, ei bine, atunci aflaţi că folosirea unor segmente de scări rulante de acces vă va oferi senzaţii similare ca acelea dintr-un roller coaster, din Orlando. Unghiurile de coborâre sunt foarte abrupte, înclinate, rapide şi lungi. Vă rămâne să strângeţi din dinţi şi să priviţi. Aveţi ce povesti.\n\nŞapte dealuri, şapte Case ale... Scânteii\n\nDupă vizita la metroul moscovit poţi crede că ai bifat o mare parte din punctele grele de văzut. Nu e aşa. O plimbare pe râul Moscova cu una din navele de croazieră fluviale aparţinând hotelului Radisson Royal, fost Ucraina, îţi oferă o altă perspectivă asupra oraşului. Flotila este alcătuită din 10 nave ce-ţi oferă toate facilităţile. Radisson Royal Hotel, este un „greu” pe segmentul ospitalităţii. Construit în 1957 el a fost modernizat în 2010 când a şi fost afiliat la brandul Rezidor Group. Clădirea, ce poartă amprenta stilului stalinist, este cam de două ori mai mare decât cea a Casei Presei Libere din Bucureşti. În cele 500 de camere de 5 stele dar şi în lobby ori holuri sunt expuse peste 1200 de opere de artă... originale. Cea mai vizionată este Diorama de la mezanin. Creată în 1977, în cinstea aniversării a 60 de ani de la victoria Revoluţiei bolşevice, ea poartă semnătura lui Efim Deshalyt. Artistul a reconstituit Kremlinul istoric sub forma unei ample machete 3D. Lucrarea este evaluată la circa 3 milioane de dolari. Nu întîmplător Radisson Royal a fost distins în 2015 cu World Travel Awards. Clădirea face parte din „cele 7 surori” amplasate pe 7 dealuri. Pentru că şi acest oraş se desfăşoară pe 7 coline ca Roma ori Iaşi. O altă clădire gigant, cu stea în frunte, găzduieşte celebra Academie Lomonosov. Aici am urmărit un impresionant spectacol de proiecţii efectuate pe faţada principală. Un alt mastodont din beton şi marmură modelat pe... 36 de etaje şi 240 de metri înălţime. Se spune că dacă intri în aceasta la vârsta de o zi, ca să vizitezi toate încăperile îţi trebuie circa... 27 de ani. Să tot studiezi. Dar Moscova nu nu se opreşte aici. 16 zgârie nori, clădirile futuriste vor forma miezul de business al Moscow City. Reîntorcându-ne la oferta hotelieră vom spune că nu trebuie să rataţi plăcerea unui cocktail – că se numesc „Stranger in Moscow” ori „Beauty of Moscow” contează mai puţin - la barul hotelului Metropol. Vă aflaţi într-o clădire inaugurată în 1905 ce oferă oaspeţilor aproape 400 de camere cu aer şi mobilier istoric. Relativ recent Metropol a activat în cadrul lanţului internaţional InterContinental. De la geamurile acestuia am admirat un nou spectacol de lumini proiectat chiar pe faţada Bolshoi Theatre din vecinătate, căci ne-am aflat în capitala Rusiei chiar în perioada Circle of Light Festival (Festivalului Luminilor). După care am vizitat veritabilul Hall of Fame de la etajul patru. Alături de mari personalităţi ce au locuit aici, de la Bill Clinton la Claudia Cardinale, se află şi fotografia cu autograf a celebrei soprane Mariana Nicolesco.\n\nO metropolă pentru tineri\n\nÎn fine Moscova este un oraş al paradoxurilor în funcţie de luminozitatea anotimpurilor. Ziua străzile oraşului sunt goale. Se pare că ruşii chiar muncesc. Vezi doar turişti, turişti şi maşini târându-se bară la bară. Deşi şoselele sunt largi cu 4-5 benzi pe sens, marele oraş găfâie la orele de vârf. Moscova este un oraş dinamic care se adresează în principal tinerilor sau celor ce au timp de cheltuit fără restricţii. Ei fac bani (după cum spune ghidul nostru se câştigă între 1000 şi 2000 de dolari pe lună), iar după 45 de ani probabil îşi fac altfel de socoteli cu viaţa, plecând să trăiască în oraşe mai... mici.\nPe partea turistică, cel mai accesibil loc pentru pietoni şi amatorii de suveniruri este strada New Arbat coloana vertebrală a oraşului vechi, istoric.\nOdată ajuns aici totul devine prietenos - ca dimensiuni şi nu te mai simţi strivit de mega-clădirile istorice. Este de fapt o zonă comercială pentru turişti căci toate minunile şi curiozităţile artizanale sunt expuse aici. Două personaje domină piaţa suvenirurilor: Matruşca – în mii de variante (de la 15-20 de dolari până la câteva sute sau câteva mii de dolari, fireşte cele din urmă fiind pictate şi decorate în foiţă de aur. Vin din urmă foarte puternic păpuşile cu Vladimir Putin şi ceilalţi preşedinţi care au condus Rusia în ultimele aproape trei decenii. Preşedintele Putin pare să fie agentul turistic cel mai eficient pentru că la fel de căutate sunt tricourile, cănile, şorţurile de bucătărie, brelocurile imprimate cu Putin şi Obama, rusul fiind impunător în faţa americanului care pare cel puţin intimidat. În New Arbat poţi să vezi în magazinele de „antichităţi” ilustrarea întregului armament militar uşor, de la cuţite de baionetă, până la căciulile din lână cu care s-a supravieţuit în iernile cumplite ale războaielor mondiale. Pentru că a apărut cererea, căciulile sunt executate azi din materiale roz şi roşii şi asortate cu medalii şi insigne ce au recompensat cândva fapte eroice. Istoria se vinde cu succes începând de la 15 dolari bucata de suvenire. Recomandarea noastră – dacă doriţi să cumpăraţi asemenea suveniruri la preţuri acceptabile, atenţie nu se prea obişnuieşte să te târguieşti prin aceste magazine -, făceţi-o în zona New Arbat. Noi am preferat ca mulţi alţi turişti să ne fotografiem în faţa grupului statuar – Puskin cu soţia. Şi să străbatem strada principală, acoperită cu umbrele multicolore, încadrată de clădiri culturale, afişe, steaguri, eşarfe colorate ce atrag ochiul spre firmele micilor restaurante, cafenele, bistrouri, spaţii pentru gimnastică în aer liber etc.\n\nArhitecţii au pus lumina la lucru\n\nE frig, seara cade brusc la Moscova. La ora 18.00 este deja beznă. Dar niciun moscovit tânăr nu ia în seamă acest lucru. Acum oraşul clipeşte spre tine cu milioane probabil de becuri, neoane, reflectoare, efecte speciale, invitându-te la un tur de noapte într-un spaţiu urban fascinant ca un basm. Realitate şi metaforă. Feeria obţinută este o haină cu care oraşul se îmbracă până dimineaţa. Luminile postate, evidenţiază statuile şi vechea arhitectură a Moscovei. Se vede că arhitecţii au căutat să încălzească volumele reci ale unor epoci trecute. Dincolo de prejudecăţi, realitatea este că de la Bucureşti până la Moscova zbori puţin mai mult de trei ore jumătate. Cu Aeroflot, cu avioane moderne de fabricaţie rusească şi cu servicii despre care trebuie să vă actualizaţi cunoştinţele. Undeva, la întoarcere, s-ar putea să auziţi plutind în aer celebrul refren: ...Şi ce seri sunt la Moscova! Oraşul în care, ne-a plăcut să spunem, Crăciunul vine în fiecare seară! Vă puteţi convinge ajungând acolo.\n\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU ','MOSCOVA - Crăciunul vine în fiecare seară (2), MAPAMOND nr.152','','inherit','closed','closed','','5425-autosave-v1','','','2017-04-03 00:30:49','2017-04-02 22:30:49','',5425,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2017/04/03/5425-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5484,1,'2017-04-03 00:29:39','2017-04-02 22:29:39','','Rus 009','','inherit','open','closed','','rus-009','','','2017-04-03 00:29:39','2017-04-02 22:29:39','',5425,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Rus-009.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5485,1,'2017-04-03 00:29:41','2017-04-02 22:29:41','','Rus 015','','inherit','open','closed','','rus-015-2','','','2017-04-03 00:29:41','2017-04-02 22:29:41','',5425,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Rus-015-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5486,1,'2017-04-03 00:29:43','2017-04-02 22:29:43','','Rus 078','','inherit','open','closed','','rus-078','','','2017-04-03 00:29:43','2017-04-02 22:29:43','',5425,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Rus-078.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5487,1,'2017-04-03 00:29:45','2017-04-02 22:29:45','','Rus 260','','inherit','open','closed','','rus-260','','','2017-04-03 00:29:45','2017-04-02 22:29:45','',5425,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Rus-260.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5488,1,'2017-04-03 00:29:48','2017-04-02 22:29:48','','Rus 297','','inherit','open','closed','','rus-297','','','2017-04-03 00:29:48','2017-04-02 22:29:48','',5425,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Rus-297.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5489,1,'2017-04-03 00:29:51','2017-04-02 22:29:51','','Rus 344','','inherit','open','closed','','rus-344','','','2017-04-03 00:29:51','2017-04-02 22:29:51','',5425,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Rus-344.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5490,1,'2017-04-03 00:29:55','2017-04-02 22:29:55','','Rusi 105','','inherit','open','closed','','rusi-105','','','2017-04-03 00:29:55','2017-04-02 22:29:55','',5425,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Rusi-105.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5491,1,'2017-04-03 00:29:57','2017-04-02 22:29:57','','Rusi 118','','inherit','open','closed','','rusi-118','','','2017-04-03 00:29:57','2017-04-02 22:29:57','',5425,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Rusi-118.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5492,1,'2017-04-03 00:29:59','2017-04-02 22:29:59','','Rusi 514','','inherit','open','closed','','rusi-514','','','2017-04-03 00:29:59','2017-04-02 22:29:59','',5425,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Rusi-514.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5493,1,'2017-04-03 00:31:07','2017-04-02 22:31:07','Al 58-lea Congres al Federaţiei Internaţionale a Jurnaliştilor şi Editorilor de Turism (FIJET), găzduit de Moscova, a oferit celor circa 150 de ziarişti de travel posibilitatea de a descoperi „oglinzi” ale unei mari culturi care a marcat numeroase curente mondiale.\r\n\r\n\r\nÎn timpul alocat fam-tripurilor ne-am îndreptat mai întâi spre „Galeriile” Tretyakov.

Noi am preferat ca mulţi alţi turişti să ne fotografiem în faţa grupului statuar – Puskin cu soţia. Şi să străbatem strada principală, acoperită cu umbrele multicolore, încadrată de clădiri culturale, afişe, steaguri, eşarfe colorate ce atrag ochiul spre firmele micilor restaurante, cafenele, bistrouri, spaţii pentru gimnastică în aer liber etc.\r\n\r\nArhitecţii au pus lumina la lucru\r\n\r\nE frig, seara cade brusc la Moscova. La ora 18.00 este deja beznă. Dar niciun moscovit tânăr nu ia în seamă acest lucru. Acum oraşul clipeşte spre tine cu milioane probabil de becuri, neoane, reflectoare, efecte speciale, invitându-te la un tur de noapte într-un spaţiu urban fascinant ca un basm. Realitate şi metaforă. Feeria obţinută este o haină cu care oraşul se îmbracă până dimineaţa. Luminile postate, evidenţiază statuile şi vechea arhitectură a Moscovei. Se vede că arhitecţii au căutat să încălzească volumele reci ale unor epoci trecute. Dincolo de prejudecăţi, realitatea este că de la Bucureşti până la Moscova zbori puţin mai mult de trei ore jumătate. Cu Aeroflot, cu avioane moderne de fabricaţie rusească şi cu servicii despre care trebuie să vă actualizaţi cunoştinţele. Undeva, la întoarcere, s-ar putea să auziţi plutind în aer celebrul refren: ...Şi ce seri sunt la Moscova! Oraşul în care, ne-a plăcut să spunem, Crăciunul vine în fiecare seară!

Întâmplarea fericită face ca domnia sa să fi aniversat de curând o vârstă care nu o trădează în faţa proiectelelor de viaţă pe care le are. Eva este Scorpion ca şi fiul său Bogdan. A lucrat 22 de ani la ONT Carpaţi de unde a plecat pentru ca să înfiinţeze una dintre cele mai durabile agenţii private de turism. “Atlantic Tour” şi-a câştigat clienţii prin seriozitate şi calitate.\r\n\r\n
Firma a deschis pieţe pentru incoming şi outgoing, printre care China, India, Thailanda, Austria etc, pentru programe de City Break pe vremea când prea puţină lumea vorbea despre acestea. Destinaţiile interne preferate: Maramureş şi Bucovina. Un proiect de suflet, neîmplinit încă, îl reprezintă construirea unui hotel – cu circa 200 de camere în București -, tot cu numele Atlantic.\r\n\r\n
”Nu ne-au interesat găinăriile, tunurile. Se vorbește foarte des de neceistatea unei Legi a Turismului dar eu cred în primul rând că mai important decât acest lucru este crearea și consolidarea respectului față de, și între oamenii de afaceri din turism și români în general.Asta ar accelera schimbarea mentalității, dinamitarea gândirii de genul ”leafa merge, ziua trece, noi cu drag muncim!”.
\r\nDar și mentalitatea că fiecare când pornește într-o afacere, vrea să se îmbogățească peste noapte. De aceea fiecare își face o lege a lui, cu consecințe negative pentru alții foarte mulți, care operează în turism” – ne spunea sărbătorita. „La Mulţi Ani Eva Gligor!”

Preparatul său de concurs a fost “Cocoş cu şuncă şi fasole”. Competiţia tinerilor bucătari are ca scop aducerea în actualitate a preparatelor tradiţionale, promovarea gusturilor locale din diferite regiuni ale Europei şi atrage atenţia asupra metodelor ecologice, sustenabile, de a produce ingredientele pentru mâncare. Viitori ambasadori ai culturilor culinare din zonele din care provin, tinerii bucătari trebuie să convingă juriul nu numai prin selecţie, prezentare în farfurie şi gust dar şi prin povestea din spatele preparatului. Câştigătorul ediţiei de anul acesta a fost Stamatios Misomikes. Reprezentând Sudul Egeei, Gregia, el a propus un preparat cu 19 ingrediente locale, denumit “Salas, bucuria creaþiei”. Concursul Tinerilor Bucãtari Europeni este un proiect anual al Institutului Internațional de Gastronomie, Culturã, Artã ºi Turism (IGCAT). (SÂNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU)
\r\nTRAVELBIRD: Capitala este foarte… romantică!
\r\nSpecialiştii de la TravelBird au analizat anul acesta 85 de destinaţii din lume şi au poziţional Bucureştiul pe locul 20 la capitolul romantism. Companii artistice, şcoli de artă, galerii de artă, muzee, producţie muzicală şi de film dar şi idei noi care au nevoie de finanţare au fost criteriile punctuate în cazul fiecărei destinaţii. TravelBird a vrut să afle cât de atractive sunt şi cât de mult pot inspira eventualul vizitator cele 85 de oraşe, atât vara cât şi iarna. Fiecare locaţie a primit apoi un alt punctaj în funcţie de numărul de căutări cu cuvinte cheie romantice (cină romantică, loc romantic etc.) realizate pe Google, raportate la 100,000 de locuitori. La capitolul inspiraţie, Bucureştiul este pe locul 67, iarna urcă pe 48 iar vara pare mai puţin atractiv, situându-se pe locul 55. Ne aflăm însă pe locul 20 la căutări romantice. Conform studiului cele mai atractive 10 oraşe ale lumii sunt: Miami, Bruges, San Francisco, Bristol, Reykjavik, Santiago de Compostela, Salzburg, Zurich, Heidelberg şi Florenţa. TravelBird este o aplicație prin care utilizatorii îşi pot crea şi rezerva vacanţe. Ea este disponibilă gratuit în 13 ţări europene.\r\n![\"Ev](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Ev-Bucuresti-romantic.jpg\")

Aplicația de vânzari YEAY a studiat anul acesta felul în care consumatorii din toată lumea înţeleg şi achiziţionează serviciile pentru tatuaje. Rezultatele s-au adunat într-un index care arată poziția oraşelor în funcţie de preţul pe oră practicat pentru realizarea unui tatuaj şi de numărul de saloane disponibile la 100.000 de locuitori. De asemenea analiştii studiului au urmărit şi felul în care se achiziţionează serviciile de tatuare.
\r\nRezultatele arată cu Bucureștiul ocupă locul 26 la capitolul cât de uşor putem găsi un salon, cu 0.80 locaţii la 100.000 de locuitori. Costul mediu pe oră al unui serviciu de tatuare este de 45 de euro, ceea ce situează capitala pe locul 12 la categoria preţ. În Indexul Global, cel mai ieftin oraş pentru a-ţi face un tatuaj este Colombo (Sri Lanka), cu 20 de euro pe oră, iar cel mai scump este San Francisco, SUA, cu 250 de euro. În Bucureşti doar 3% dintre serviciile de tatuare sunt achiziţionate de către turişti iar 10% din total sunt cumpărate pentru a fi oferite cadou. (ALEX BARBU)

Fumul aromat de la grătare, tăvile generoase cu cârnaţi şi ceaunele cu sarmale îmbie pe oricine iar cozile la vin fiert vorbesc oricărui privitor de pasiunea românilor pentru bucate gustoase şi dorinţa de a petrece cum se cuvine.

\r\nMinisterul Mediului, Apelor și Padurilor (MMAP), a lansat programul ECO-Turism, ce beneficiază de o finanțare totală de 20 de milioane de lei. Acesta se desfășoară pentru prima dată în România. Sunt finanțate în cadrul acestuia realizări de infrastructuri pentru acces nemotorizat, precum poteci tematice, podețe pentru activități de cicloturism, călărie, caiac-canoe, trasee de aventură, via ferrata (trasee montane prevăzute cu cabluri, scări și poduri metalice), dar și infrastructura aferentă acestora (rasteluri pentru bicicletă, locuri de adăpost și hrană pentru cai, debarcader, refugii alpine etc) și construirea de puncte de informare turistică și protecția mediului/refugii, amenajarea peșterilor, centrelor de vizitare, realizarea și refacerea traseelor de drumeție etc. Reprezentanții Ministerului Mediului au subliniat că finanțarea maximă pentru un proiect poate ajunge la 900.000 de lei. Programul a fost gândit ca o componentă de completare a Strategiei Naționale de dezvoltare a ecoturismului în România, elaborată de Autoritatea Naționala pentru Turism (ANT).

\r\n\r\n\r\nÎntâmplător sau nu, aici e mâna generoasă a destinului, de mai bine de un an de zile este liderul acestei organizații care și-a propus să renască, să-și recapete prestigiul. Călin Ile s-a lansat la apă cu ”navele” lanțului românesc Continental iar ulterior a urcat la bordul brandului Ibis, dezvoltat pe piața autohtonă de lanțul internațional Accor într-un parteneriat profitabil stabilit cu grupul de afaceri românesc.\r\n\r\n\r\nA contribuit la nașterea și lansarea pe piață a echipei de la Ibis Constanța (2004-2008) după care a venit la Ibis - Gara de Nord din București. Se întâmpla în urmă cu vreo opt ani. Îl puteți întâlni în fiecare zi aici, luând pulsul serviciilor oferite de acest brand.\r\n\r\nDin când în când caut să mă intersectez cu el, iar când reușim să stăm la o cafea, e o plăcere pentru amândoi. Cel puțin asta cred eu. În mijlocul unui du-te-vino și a unui zumzăit turistic am încercat să privim timpul din alte perspective decât cele de business.\r\n\r\n- De ce nu ai plecat din țară să lucrezi ”acasă” la un brand străin?\r\n\r\n- Au fost mai multe momente în carieră când m-am gândit la această opțiune, care recunosc că mă mai „ incită” din când în când. Inițial acesta era planul meu de carieră, ca după mai mulți ani de hotel în țară, să trec la un nivel internațional. Însă, au apărut 2 elemente noi în cariera mea, care m-au facut să schimb prioritățile. Primul a fost dat de oportunitatea de a lucra alături de 3 oameni remarcabili ai turismului romanesc, ca și consilieri onorifici (pe baza de voluntariat cred că merită precizat) ai Ministrului Turismului în 2012. Al doilea a venit din șansa de a colabora timp de 2 ani cu ASE pe un proiect de management al destinației. Cele 2 momente m-au făcut să privesc cu alți ochi la turismul românesc, la oprtunitățile și necesitățile pe care le avem aici, la șansa de a contribui la renașterea turismului din România. Asta explică în mare parte dorința mea de a rămâne în țară, cred că mai avem multe de făcut aici și cred că pot fi mult mai util aici decât plecând în altă țară.\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5567,5568,5569,5570\"]\r\n\r\n- Ce experiență ți-a adus Continental și cât de provocatoare a fost oferta Ibis?\r\n\r\n- Experiența Continental este unică. Nu poate fi uitată deoarece a contribuit decisiv la formarea mea ca manager în turism. Chiar mă gandesc că dimineața ascultam Rod Stewart cu „first love is the deepest” și tu îmi pui întrebarea asta!!! Am cunoscut oameni deosebiți cărora le mulțumesc toată viața mea pentru șansa acordată, unui puști la vremea aceea, de a conduce un hotel de talia Grand Hotel Continental. Profesional am învățat enorm, a fost nevoie de multă muncă, adaptabilitate, empatie și mai ales răbdare și înțelegere din partea tuturor pentru a ajunge la nivelul actual. IBIS a venit cu alte provocări. Curiozitatea de a vedea cum se lucrează într-un lanț internațional, deschiderea spre lumea întreagă, dorința de a te compara cu cei mai buni și de a învăța de la ei m-a facut să fac acest pas. Sigur, exista și un element de stabilitate, faptul că proprietari erau aceeași iar asta a făcut trecerea mai lină.\r\n\r\n- Accor operează în hotelăria noastră și alte branduri superioare din punct de vedere al stelelor! Novotel, Pulmann (fostul Sofitel) etc. Nu te-a tentat să treci la un nivel superior?\r\n\r\n- Atunci când lucrezi într-un lanț internațional opțiunile de carieră sunt deschise în permanență, deci chiar și astăzi ușa este deschisă. Posibilitatea de a face acest pas există, dar mă tentează numai în măsura în care proiectul este unul provocator din toate punctele de vedere. Datorită faptului că în acest moment doresc să lucrez în țară, iar dezvoltarea grupului Accor la noi abia acum se intensifică, opțiunea de trecere la un alt nivel (superior cum spui tu, dar numai în număr de stele după cum spun eu) se amână deocamdată.\r\n\r\n- Știu că ești un partizan al impulsionării și dezvoltării turismului de evenimente - MICE, mai concentrat exprimat. În afară de mai mulți turiști și mai mulți bani încasați, ce alte avantaje de valoare poate genera acesta pe piața bucureșteană și, în general, în România?\r\n\r\n- Sunt un susținător al formelor de turism care se potrivesc piețelor în care activez. Astfel în București găsesc o oportunitate imensă în poziționarea pe segmentul MICE, dar dacă aș activa în Brașov de exemplu aș privi și piața de leisure cu mare atenție. Dar pe lângă acest interes direct să-i spunem, găsesc foarte eficient segmentul MICE, mai ales în punctul în care ne aflăm noi astăzi din punct de vedere al infrastructurii turistice (număr hoteluri, aeroporturi, autostrăzi etc). Să nu uităm că turiștii de evenimente, pot genera, pot da imbold turismului de leisure pentru că ei își găsesc timp să viziteze și obiective turistice, să dea o fugă până la Peleș sau Mamaia, să duca înapoi imaginea pozitivă și ulterior să revină cu familiile sau prietenii lor. \r\n\r\nMai ales că în ziua de azi putem vorbi de noua tendință BLEISURE adica o îmbinare între business și leisure care caracterizează vizitatorii MICE din ziua de azi. Însă pentru o poziționare bună pe segmentul MICE este nevoie urgentă de un centru multifuncțional modern, Bucureștiul fiind singura capitală din Europa unde acesta lipsește. Iar în incinta lui să poți organiza concerte, congrese, evenimente sportive etc, ceea ce, cu un management eficient, ar duce la o mare creștere a orașului nu numai din punct de vedere turistic. Vă spun aceste lucruri în deplină cunoștință de cauză, grupul din care fac parte find partener în operarea sălii din Paris fosta arenă Paris Bercy care acum se numește Accor Arena. Acolo au loc anual circa 220 evenimente din toate categoriile amintite.\r\n\r\n- S-a investit mult în hoteluri, în construcția și reconstrucția lor? Dar mulți oameni de afaceri au uitat că hotelurile sunt construite pentru oameni iar serviciile sunt furnizate de oameni și nu de roboți. În ultimii ani au apărut scenarii melodramatice privitoare la resursele umane. Este forța de muncă din turism desincronizată față de cererile lansate de mediul de afaceri?\r\n\r\n- Astăzi tema numărul 1 a operatorilor în turism este legată de forța de muncă. Se dezbate în toate conferințele, vorba lui Alexandru Andrieș „se discută probleme, se analizează ce nu merge bine, ce incomodează” dar se tot amână trecerea la acțiuni concrete, la adoptarea de soluții. Ceea ce am început timid anul acesta (mă refer la introducerea sistemului dual pentru meseriile de bază și la colaborări cu școli internaționale de prestigiu la nivel mediu și înalt) va aduce roade în 3-5 ani. Până atunci plătim polițe pentru un sistem educațional prost pe care l-am proliferat ani de zile, cu școli care livrează diplome sau hârtii și nu competențe, cu un sistem de certificare fără acoperire (de la brevetul de turism, la atestatul de chef sau de ghid). Dar cred că privatul va găsi resurse și de data aceasta să regleze problema forței de muncă prin adaptarea (uneori dureroasă) la piață, prin implicarea directă în educația forței de muncă sau ca ultima opțiune-prin importul de personal.\r\n\r\n- Cu vreo două luni în urmă ai afirmat că turiștii străini s-ar putea confrunta în viitorii ani cu o criză a locurilor de cazare din țara noastră, asta în condițiile în care în fiecare an am înregistra o creștere de circa 15-18%. Este realistă această abordare?\r\n\r\n- Acest aspect se simte deja în anumite zone din țarș (Mamaia în sezonul de vară, sau Poiana Brașov în cel de iarnă, Clujul în perioada de concerte, Sibiul la festivalurile sale sau Bucureștiul în sezonul de toamnă, de business). Creșterea cererii pentru România pe care o așteptăm cu toții de foarte mult timp, ar trebui să aducă după sine și un val de investiții în noi unități creîndu-se așa-zisul cerc virtuos de dezvoltare. Sperăm să continuăm această creștere și să înregistrăm venituri mai mari atât prin ocupare cât și prin tarife mai mari. De exemplu pentru la anul preconizez o ridicare a tarifelor de cazare în zonele și perioadele solicitate, hotelierii aplicând cu eficiență din ce în ce mai mare tehnicile de Revenue Management similare celor din airline industry. \r\n\r\n- Ești foarte receptiv la propuneri venite din zona parteneriatelor media, a asociațiilor ori organizațiior care susțin evenimente nonprofit de prestigiu? Nu sunt foarte mulți manageri sau proprietari care se dau în vânt după asemenea colaborări. Este o recomandare ”secretă” a Accor sau e numai o decizie a managementului pe care-l dezvolți?\r\n\r\n- Hotelul de azi nu este doar o unitate adresată turiștilor veniți dn alte localități, ci este un centru social destinat și comunității din care face parte. Nu trebuie să uităm acest lucru și de aceea încercăm prin ceea ce depinde de noi să susținem aceste comunități. Este un crez propriu care însă se mulează perfect cu politica internaționala a Accor. Văzând această compatibilitate cei de la Accor m-au onorat cu responsabilitatea de a conduce direcția de CSR a Accor Hotels Romania lucru cu care mă mândresc în mod deosebit. Și mă bucur să spun că avem multe rezultate notabile din care aș aminti doar plantarea a peste 1,5 milioane copaci în Transilvania pe lângă multe altele. Mi-ar face plăcere să fiți alături de noi în primavară când vom celebra plantarea copacului cu numărul 2 milioane. \r\n\r\n- Am văzut destui tineri studenți în hotelul Ibis - Gara de Nord care în perioada verii în principal, desfășoară activități de practică și voluntariat. După cum m-am documentat, ei provin în principal de la catedre de turism de la ASE, Facultatea Româno-Americană etc? Ce mesaj încerci să le transmiți?\r\n\r\n- Să vină cu drag să lucreze în cea mai frumoasă industrie din lume, industria ospitalității. Să caute experiențe noi, să călătorească, să învețe și să pună pasiune în tot ceea ce fac. Rezultatele vor veni cu siguranță, chiar dacă poate nu atât de repede cum se așteaptă ei. \r\n\r\n- Când ai puțin timp îți iei familia și călătorești. Când dispui de un buget mai mare pentru vacanță călătorești mai... durabil. Știu cum se vede o călătorie prin ochii unui jurnalist de travel, dar cum se vede ea prin ochii unui hotelier cu experiență, ajuns la o vârstă a echilibrului în evaluările sale?\r\n\r\n- În deplasările mele încerc să mă detașez de hotelierul din mine și să mă bucur din plin de locurile noi, de oamenii dragi cu care sunt plecat. Sunt un călător normal, nu am cerințe speciale sau particularități anume provenite din meseria mea.\r\n\r\n- Ce ai văzut și ți-a plăcut în țară și străinătate? Unde n-ai fost și ai dori să ajungi?\r\n\r\n- În țară mă bucur de locurile liniștite, mai izolate puțin iar în străinătate merg cu plăcere în city break-uri. Aș dori să ajung într-o țară din Asia pentru o experiență pe care încă nu am trăit-o.\r\n\r\n- Foarte multe hoteluri moderne au descoperit că... clasic e fantastic, ca să reproduc un slogan cultural. Altfel spun alături de restaurante, baruri, săli de conferință, au biblioteci proprii, sau colțuri cu biblioteci ”flexibile” de genul... ia o Carte, citește, iar în locul ei lasă alta. Putem privi hotelul și ca o instituție de cultură?\r\n\r\n- Poate e prea mult spus instituție de cultură dar un centru al comunității cu siguranță. Și aici intră și partea de cultură, de integrare a comunității, de exemplu inovator, de model de responsabilitate socială.\r\n\r\n- România este promovată în lume de câțiva ani drept ”Grădina Carpaților”, dar conform cifrelor peste 60% din încasările turistice internaționale sunt asigurate de către turismul de evenimente și business! Când crezi, și cum s-ar putea sincroniza politica de publicitate și promovare a instituțiilor administrative de stat care se ocupă și de turism?\r\n\r\n- Politicile administrative ale turismului românesc sunt din păcate cu mult în urma vremurilor pe care le trăim, a potențialului României în turism, și chiar a pașilor făcuți de privat în turism. Cred ca sincronizarea de care vorbești va apărea doar în momentul în care printr-un parteneriat public privat, părțile vor sta la masă și vor aduce turismul la locul și rolul pe care-l merită. Cea mai mare problema a turismului românesc nu sunt banii, ci lipsa unei liste de priorități după care să se orienteze pe termen lung. Sloganul - turismul, prioritate națională -, trebuie să depășească odată stadiul de enunț, și poate o va face noul guvern. Avem o fereastră de oportunitate incredibilă, contextul internațional ne avantajează astfel încât până în 2020 să facem din industria turistică un motor al dezvoltării economiei naționale.\r\n\r\n- Amândoi ne numărăm printre oamenii care au fost premiați la Gala Awards Trend Hospitality. Tu cu titlul Hotelier of the Year 2011 (Hotelierul Anului), eu Lifetime Achivement Reward 2012 (Întreaga Activitate). Amândoi aprindem în felul nostru luminile din camerele turismului. De ce majoritatea oamenilor din branșă sunt și rămân optimiști pe termen lung?\r\n\r\n- Pentru că lucrăm într-o industrie cu oameni frumoși, pentru că ne întâlnim cu partea plăcută a vieții. Pentru că punem pasiune și speranță în ceea ce facem. Pentru că avem motive să fim optimiști atunci când vedem zâmbetele clienților noștri, bucuria pe care ți-o dă un simplu „ mulțumesc” din partea lor, valorând deseori mai mult decât toți banii din lume și făcându-te să vezi partea frumoasă a vieții în fiecare dimineață.\r\n\r\n- Mulțumesc !\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU ','Interviu cu Calin Ile, INTERVIURI nr. 153','','publish','open','open','','interviu-cu-calin-ile-interviuri-nr-153','','','2017-04-19 21:51:45','2017-04-19 19:51:45','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=5518',0,'post','',0),(5521,1,'2017-04-19 20:30:39','2017-04-19 18:30:39','” Când lucrezi într-un lanț internațional fereastra oportunităților e deschisă permanent!” \r\n\r\nCălin Ile este un manager de colecție.

Sunt un călător normal, nu am cerințe speciale sau particularități anume provenite din meseria mea.\r\n\r\n- Ce ai văzut și ți-a plăcut în țară și străinătate? Unde n-ai fost și ai dori să ajungi?\r\n\r\n- În țară mă bucur de locurile liniștite, mai izolate puțin iar în străinătate merg cu plăcere în city break-uri. Aș dori să ajung într-o țară din Asia pentru o experiență pe care încă nu am trăit-o.\r\n\r\n- Foarte multe hoteluri moderne au descoperit că... clasic e fantastic, ca să reproduc un slogan cultural. Altfel spun alături de restaurante, baruri, săli de conferință, au biblioteci proprii, sau colțuri cu biblioteci ”flexibile” de genul... ia o Carte, citește, iar în locul ei lasă alta. Putem privi hotelul și ca o instituție de cultură?\r\n\r\n- Poate e prea mult spus instituție de cultură dar un centru al comunității cu siguranță. Și aici intră și partea de cultură, de integrare a comunității, de exemplu inovator, de model de responsabilitate socială.\r\n\r\n- România este promovată în lume de câțiva ani drept ”Grădina Carpaților”, dar conform cifrelor peste 60% din încasările turistice internaționale sunt asigurate de către turismul de evenimente și business! Când crezi, și cum s-ar putea sincroniza politica de publicitate și promovare a instituțiilor administrative de stat care se ocupă și de turism?\r\n\r\n- Politicile administrative ale turismului românesc sunt din păcate cu mult în urma vremurilor pe care le trăim, a potențialului României în turism, și chiar a pașilor făcuți de privat în turism. Cred ca sincronizarea de care vorbești va apărea doar în momentul în care printr-un parteneriat public privat, părțile vor sta la masă și vor aduce turismul la locul și rolul pe care-l merită. Cea mai mare problema a turismului românesc nu sunt banii, ci lipsa unei liste de priorități după care să se orienteze pe termen lung. Sloganul - turismul, prioritate națională -, trebuie să depășească odată stadiul de enunț, și poate o va face noul guvern. Avem o fereastră de oportunitate incredibilă, contextul internațional ne avantajează astfel încât până în 2020 să facem din industria turistică un motor al dezvoltării economiei naționale.\r\n\r\n- Amândoi ne numărăm printre oamenii care au fost premiați la Gala Awards Trend Hospitality. Tu cu titlul Hotelier of the Year 2011 (Hotelierul Anului), eu Lifetime Achivement Reward 2012 (Întreaga Activitate). Amândoi aprindem în felul nostru luminile din camerele turismului. De ce majoritatea oamenilor din branșă sunt și rămân optimiști pe termen lung?\r\n\r\n- Pentru că lucrăm într-o industrie cu oameni frumoși, pentru că ne întâlnim cu partea plăcută a vieții. Pentru că punem pasiune și speranță în ceea ce facem. Pentru că avem motive să fim optimiști atunci când vedem zâmbetele clienților noștri, bucuria pe care ți-o dă un simplu „ mulțumesc” din partea lor, valorând deseori mai mult decât toți banii din lume și făcându-te să vezi partea frumoasă a vieții în fiecare dimineață.\r\n\r\n- Mulțumesc !\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU ','Interviu cu Calin Ile, INTERVIURI nr. 153','','inherit','closed','closed','','5518-revision-v1','','','2017-04-19 20:30:39','2017-04-19 18:30:39','',5518,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2017/04/19/5518-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5519,1,'2017-04-19 20:24:16','2017-04-19 18:24:16','” Când lucrezi într-un lanț internațional fereastra oportunităților e deschisă permanent!” \r\n\r\nCălin Ile este un manager de colecție. E o raritate, un unicat în piața industriei\r\n\r\nhoteliere din România! Cum adică? Simplu. Pe geamantanul ce-l însoțește de-a\r\n\r\nlungul carierei sunt fixate mai multe etichete care i se potrivesc numai lui. Absolvent\r\n\r\nde ASE în 1995. E singurul director de hotel crescut în România ce a beneficiat de\r\n\r\nsingura bursă în străinătate acordată de Federația Industriei Hoteliere din țara noastră\r\n\r\n(FIHR) pe vremurile ei de glorie. Întâmplător sau nu, aici e mâna generoasă a\r\n\r\ndestinului, de mai bine de un an de zile este liderul acestei organizații care și-a\r\n\r\npropus să renască, să-și recapete prestigiul. Călin Ile s-a lansat la apă cu\r\n\r\n”navele” lanțului românesc Continental iar ulterior a urcat la bordul brandului Ibis,\r\n\r\ndezvoltat pe piața autohtonă de lanțul internațional Accor într-un parteneriat\r\n\r\nprofitabil stabilit cu grupul de afaceri românesc. A contribuit la nașterea și lansarea\r\n\r\npe piață a echipei de la Ibis Constanța (2004-2008) după care a venit la Ibis - Gara\r\n\r\nde Nord din București. Se întâmpla în urmă cu vreo opt ani. Îl puteți întâlni în\r\n\r\nfiecare zi aici, luând pulsul serviciilor oferite de acest brand.\r\n\r\nDin când în când caut să mă intersectez cu el, iar când reușim să stăm la o\r\n\r\ncafea, e o plăcere pentru amândoi. Cel puțin asta cred eu. În mijlocul unui du-te-vino\r\n\r\nși a unui zumzăit turistic am încercat să privim timpul din alte perspective decât cele\r\n\r\nde business.\r\n\r\n- De ce nu ai plecat din țară să lucrezi ”acasă” la un brand străin?\r\n\r\n- Au fost mai multe momente în carieră când m-am gândit la această opțiune, care recunosc că mă mai „ incită” din când în când. Inițial acesta era planul meu de carieră, ca după mai mulți ani de hotel în țară, să trec la un nivel internațional. Însă, au apărut 2 elemente noi în cariera mea, care m-au facut să schimb prioritățile. Primul a fost dat de oportunitatea de a lucra alături de 3 oameni remarcabili ai turismului romanesc, ca și consilieri onorifici (pe baza de voluntariat cred că merită precizat) ai Ministrului Turismului în 2012. Al doilea a venit din șansa de a colabora timp de 2 ani cu ASE pe un proiect de management al destinației. Cele 2 momente m-au făcut să privesc cu alți ochi la turismul românesc, la oprtunitățile și necesitățile pe care le avem aici, la șansa de a contribui la renașterea turismului din România. Asta explică în mare parte dorința mea de a rămâne în țară, cred că mai avem multe de făcut aici și cred că pot fi mult mai util aici decât plecând în altă țară.\r\n\r\n- Ce experiență ți-a adus Continental și cât de provocatoare a fost oferta Ibis?\r\n\r\n- Experiența Continental este unică. Nu poate fi uitată deoarece a contribuit decisiv la formarea mea ca manager în turism. Chiar mă gandesc că dimineața ascultam Rod Stewart cu „first love is the deepest” și tu îmi pui întrebarea asta!!! Am cunoscut oameni deosebiți cărora le mulțumesc toată viața mea pentru șansa acordată, unui puști la vremea aceea, de a conduce un hotel de talia Grand Hotel Continental. Profesional am învățat enorm, a fost nevoie de multă muncă, adaptabilitate, empatie și mai ales răbdare și înțelegere din partea tuturor pentru a ajunge la nivelul actual. IBIS a venit cu alte provocări. Curiozitatea de a vedea cum se lucrează într-un lanț internațional, deschiderea spre lumea întreagă, dorința de a te compara cu cei mai buni și de a învăța de la ei m-a facut să fac acest pas. Sigur, exista și un element de stabilitate, faptul că proprietari erau aceeași iar asta a făcut trecerea mai lină.\r\n\r\n- Accor operează în hotelăria noastră și alte branduri superioare din punct de\r\n\r\nvedere al stelelor! Novotel, Pulmann (fostul Sofitel) etc. Nu te-a tentat să treci la un nivel superior?\r\n\r\n- Atunci când lucrezi într-un lanț internațional opțiunile de carieră sunt deschise în permanență, deci chiar și astăzi ușa este deschisă. Posibilitatea de a face acest pas există, dar mă tentează numai în măsura în care proiectul este unul provocator din toate punctele de vedere. Datorită faptului că în acest moment doresc să lucrez în țară, iar dezvoltarea grupului Accor la noi abia acum se intensifică, opțiunea de trecere la un alt nivel (superior cum spui tu, dar numai în număr de stele după cum spun eu) se amână deocamdată.\r\n\r\n- Știu că ești un partizan al impulsionării și dezvoltării turismului de\r\n\r\nevenimente - MICE, mai concentrat exprimat. În afară de mai mulți turiști și mai mulți bani încasați, ce alte avantaje de valoare poate genera acesta pe piața bucureșteană și, în general, în România?\r\n\r\n- Sunt un susținător al formelor de turism care se potrivesc piețelor în care activez. Astfel în București găsesc o oportunitate imensă în poziționarea pe segmentul MICE, dar dacă aș activa în Brașov de exemplu aș privi și piața de leisure cu mare atenție. Dar pe lângă acest interes direct să-i spunem, găsesc foarte eficient segmentul MICE, mai ales în punctul în care ne aflăm noi astăzi din punct de vedere al infrastructurii turistice (număr hoteluri, aeroporturi, autostrăzi etc). Să nu uităm că turiștii de evenimente, pot genera, pot da imbold turismului de leisure pentru că ei își găsesc timp să viziteze și obiective turistice, să dea o fugă până la Peleș sau Mamaia, să duca înapoi imaginea pozitivă și ulterior să revină cu familiile sau prietenii lor. Mai ales că în ziua de azi putem vorbi de noua tendință BLEISURE adica o îmbinare între business și leisure care caracterizează vizitatorii MICE din ziua de azi. Însă pentru o poziționare bună pe segmentul MICE este nevoie urgentă de un centru multifuncțional modern, Bucureștiul fiind singura capitală din Europa unde acesta lipsește. Iar în incinta lui să poți organiza concerte, congrese, evenimente sportive etc, ceea ce, cu un management eficient, ar duce la o mare creștere a orașului nu numai din punct de vedere turistic. Vă spun aceste lucruri în deplină cunoștință de cauză, grupul din care fac parte find partener în operarea sălii din Paris fosta arenă Paris Bercy care acum se numește Accor Arena. Acolo au loc anual circa 220 evenimente din toate categoriile amintite.\r\n\r\n- S-a investit mult în hoteluri, în construcția și reconstrucția lor? Dar mulți oameni de afaceri au uitat că hotelurile sunt construite pentru oameni iar serviciile sunt furnizate de oameni și nu de roboți. În ultimii ani au apărut scenarii melodramatice privitoare la resursele umane. Este forța de muncă din turism desincronizată față de cererile lansate de mediul de afaceri?\r\n\r\n- Astăzi tema numărul 1 a operatorilor în turism este legată de forța de muncă. Se dezbate în toate conferințele, vorba lui Alexandru Andrieș „se discută probleme, se analizează ce nu merge bine, ce incomodează” dar se tot amână trecerea la acțiuni concrete, la adoptarea de soluții. Ceea ce am început timid anul acesta (mă refer la introducerea sistemului dual pentru meseriile de bază și la colaborări cu școli internaționale de prestigiu la nivel mediu și înalt) va aduce roade în 3-5 ani. Până atunci plătim polițe pentru un sistem educațional prost pe care l-am proliferat ani de zile, cu școli care livrează diplome sau hârtii și nu competențe, cu un sistem de certificare fără acoperire (de la brevetul de turism, la atestatul de chef sau de ghid). Dar cred că privatul va găsi resurse și de data aceasta să regleze problema forței de muncă prin adaptarea (uneori dureroasă) la piață, prin implicarea directă în educația forței de muncă sau ca ultima opțiune-prin importul de personal.\r\n\r\n- Cu vreo două luni în urmă ai afirmat că turiștii străini s-ar putea confrunta în\r\n\r\nviitorii ani cu o criză a locurilor de cazare din țara noastră, asta în condițiile în care\r\n\r\nîn fiecare an am înregistra o creștere de circa 15-18%. Este realistă această abordare?\r\n\r\n- Acest aspect se simte deja în anumite zone din țarș (Mamaia în sezonul de vară, sau Poiana Brașov în cel de iarnă, Clujul în perioada de concerte, Sibiul la festivalurile sale sau Bucureștiul în sezonul de toamnă, de business). Creșterea cererii pentru România pe care o așteptăm cu toții de foarte mult timp, ar trebui să aducă după sine și un val de investiții în noi unități creîndu-se așa-zisul cerc virtuos de dezvoltare. Sperăm să continuăm această creștere și să înregistrăm venituri mai mari atât prin ocupare cât și prin tarife mai mari. De exemplu pentru la anul preconizez o ridicare a tarifelor de cazare în zonele și perioadele solicitate, hotelierii aplicând cu eficiență din ce în ce mai mare tehnicile de Revenue Management similare celor din airline industry. \r\n\r\n- Ești foarte receptiv la propuneri venite din zona parteneriatelor media, a\r\n\r\nasociațiilor ori organizațiior care susțin evenimente nonprofit de prestigiu? Nu sunt\r\n\r\nfoarte mulți manageri sau proprietari care se dau în vânt după asemenea colaborări.\r\n\r\nEste o recomandare ”secretă” a Accor sau e numai o decizie a managementului pe\r\n\r\ncare-l dezvolți?\r\n\r\n- Hotelul de azi nu este doar o unitate adresată turiștilor veniți dn alte localități, ci este un centru social destinat și comunității din care face parte. Nu trebuie să uităm acest lucru și de aceea încercăm prin ceea ce depinde de noi să susținem aceste comunități. Este un crez propriu care însă se mulează perfect cu politica internaționala a Accor. Văzând această compatibilitate cei de la Accor m-au onorat cu responsabilitatea de a conduce direcția de CSR a Accor Hotels Romania lucru cu care mă mândresc în mod deosebit. Și mă bucur să spun că avem multe rezultate notabile din care aș aminti doar plantarea a peste 1,5 milioane copaci în Transilvania pe lângă multe altele. Mi-ar face plăcere să fiți alături de noi în primavară când vom celebra plantarea copacului cu numărul 2 milioane. \r\n\r\n- Am văzut destui tineri studenți în hotelul Ibis - Gara de Nord care în\r\n\r\nperioada verii în principal, desfășoară activități de practică și voluntariat. După cum m-am documentat, ei provin în principal de la catedre de turism de la ASE, Facultatea Româno-Americană etc? Ce mesaj încerci să le transmiți?\r\n\r\n- Să vină cu drag să lucreze în cea mai frumoasă industrie din lume, industria ospitalității. Să caute experiențe noi, să călătorească, să învețe și să pună pasiune în tot ceea ce fac. Rezultatele vor veni cu siguranță, chiar dacă poate nu atât de repede cum se așteaptă ei. \r\n\r\n- Când ai puțin timp îți iei familia și călătorești. Când dispui de un buget mai\r\n\r\nmare pentru vacanță călătorești mai... durabil. Știu cum se vede o călătorie prin ochii\r\n\r\nunui jurnalist de travel, dar cum se vede ea prin ochii unui hotelier cu experiență,\r\n\r\najuns la o vârstă a echilibrului în evaluările sale?\r\n\r\n- În deplasările mele încerc să mă detașez de hotelierul din mine și să mă bucur din plin de locurile noi, de oamenii dragi cu care sunt plecat.

Aș dori să ajung într-o țară din Asia pentru o experiență pe care încă nu am trăit-o.\r\n\r\n- Foarte multe hoteluri moderne au descoperit că... clasic e fantastic, ca să reproduc un slogan cultural. Altfel spun alături de restaurante, baruri, săli de\r\n\r\nconferință, au biblioteci proprii, sau colțuri cu biblioteci ”flexibile” de genul... ia o\r\n\r\nCarte, citește, iar în locul ei lasă alta. Putem privi hotelul și ca o instituție de\r\n\r\ncultură?\r\n\r\n- Poate e prea mult spus instituție de cultură dar un centru al comunității cu siguranță.

Creșterea cererii pentru România pe care o așteptăm cu toții de foarte mult timp, ar trebui să aducă după sine și un val de investiții în noi unități creîndu-se așa-zisul cerc virtuos de dezvoltare. Sperăm să continuăm această creștere și să înregistrăm venituri mai mari atât prin ocupare cât și prin tarife mai mari. De exemplu pentru la anul preconizez o ridicare a tarifelor de cazare în zonele și perioadele solicitate, hotelierii aplicând cu eficiență din ce în ce mai mare tehnicile de Revenue Management similare celor din airline industry. \n\n- Ești foarte receptiv la propuneri venite din zona parteneriatelor media, a asociațiilor ori organizațiior care susțin evenimente nonprofit de prestigiu? Nu sunt foarte mulți manageri sau proprietari care se dau în vânt după asemenea colaborări. Este o recomandare ”secretă” a Accor sau e numai o decizie a managementului pe care-l dezvolți?\n\n- Hotelul de azi nu este doar o unitate adresată turiștilor veniți dn alte localități, ci este un centru social destinat și comunității din care face parte. Nu trebuie să uităm acest lucru și de aceea încercăm prin ceea ce depinde de noi să susținem aceste comunități. Este un crez propriu care însă se mulează perfect cu politica internaționala a Accor. Văzând această compatibilitate cei de la Accor m-au onorat cu responsabilitatea de a conduce direcția de CSR a Accor Hotels Romania lucru cu care mă mândresc în mod deosebit. Și mă bucur să spun că avem multe rezultate notabile din care aș aminti doar plantarea a peste 1,5 milioane copaci în Transilvania pe lângă multe altele. Mi-ar face plăcere să fiți alături de noi în primavară când vom celebra plantarea copacului cu numărul 2 milioane. \n\n- Am văzut destui tineri studenți în hotelul Ibis - Gara de Nord care în perioada verii în principal, desfășoară activități de practică și voluntariat. După cum m-am documentat, ei provin în principal de la catedre de turism de la ASE, Facultatea Româno-Americană etc? Ce mesaj încerci să le transmiți?\n\n- Să vină cu drag să lucreze în cea mai frumoasă industrie din lume, industria ospitalității. Să caute experiențe noi, să călătorească, să învețe și să pună pasiune în tot ceea ce fac. Rezultatele vor veni cu siguranță, chiar dacă poate nu atât de repede cum se așteaptă ei. \n\n- Când ai puțin timp îți iei familia și călătorești. Când dispui de un buget mai mare pentru vacanță călătorești mai... durabil. Știu cum se vede o călătorie prin ochii unui jurnalist de travel, dar cum se vede ea prin ochii unui hotelier cu experiență, ajuns la o vârstă a echilibrului în evaluările sale?\n\n- În deplasările mele încerc să mă detașez de hotelierul din mine și să mă bucur din plin de locurile noi, de oamenii dragi cu care sunt plecat. Sunt un călător normal, nu am cerințe speciale sau particularități anume provenite din meseria mea.\n\n- Ce ai văzut și ți-a plăcut în țară și străinătate? Unde n-ai fost și ai dori să ajungi?\n\n- În țară mă bucur de locurile liniștite, mai izolate puțin iar în străinătate merg cu plăcere în city break-uri. Aș dori să ajung într-o țară din Asia pentru o experiență pe care încă nu am trăit-o.\n\n- Foarte multe hoteluri moderne au descoperit că... clasic e fantastic, ca să reproduc un slogan cultural. Altfel spun alături de restaurante, baruri, săli de conferință, au biblioteci proprii, sau colțuri cu biblioteci ”flexibile” de genul... ia o Carte, citește, iar în locul ei lasă alta. Putem privi hotelul și ca o instituție de cultură?\n\n- Poate e prea mult spus instituție de cultură dar un centru al comunității cu siguranță. Și aici intră și partea de cultură, de integrare a comunității, de exemplu inovator, de model de responsabilitate socială.\n\n- România este promovată în lume de câțiva ani drept ”Grădina Carpaților”, dar conform cifrelor peste 60% din încasările turistice internaționale sunt asigurate de către turismul de evenimente și business! Când crezi, și cum s-ar putea sincroniza politica de publicitate și promovare a instituțiilor administrative de stat care se ocupă și de turism?\n\n- Politicile administrative ale turismului românesc sunt din păcate cu mult în urma vremurilor pe care le trăim, a potențialului României în turism, și chiar a pașilor făcuți de privat în turism. Cred ca sincronizarea de care vorbești va apărea doar în momentul în care printr-un parteneriat public privat, părțile vor sta la masă și vor aduce turismul la locul și rolul pe care-l merită. Cea mai mare problema a turismului românesc nu sunt banii, ci lipsa unei liste de priorități după care să se orienteze pe termen lung. Sloganul - turismul, prioritate națională -, trebuie să depășească odată stadiul de enunț, și poate o va face noul guvern. Avem o fereastră de oportunitate incredibilă, contextul internațional ne avantajează astfel încât până în 2020 să facem din industria turistică un motor al dezvoltării economiei naționale.\n\n- Amândoi ne numărăm printre oamenii care au fost premiați la Gala Awards Trend Hospitality. Tu cu titlul Hotelier of the Year 2011 (Hotelierul Anului), eu Lifetime Achivement Reward 2012 (Întreaga Activitate). Amândoi aprindem în felul nostru luminile din camerele turismului. De ce majoritatea oamenilor din branșă sunt și rămân optimiști pe termen lung?\n\n- Pentru că lucrăm într-o industrie cu oameni frumoși, pentru că ne întâlnim cu partea plăcută a vieții. Pentru că punem pasiune și speranță în ceea ce facem. Pentru că avem motive să fim optimiști atunci când vedem zâmbetele clienților noștri, bucuria pe care ți-o dă un simplu „ mulțumesc” din partea lor, valorând deseori mai mult decât toți banii din lume și făcându-te să vezi partea frumoasă a vieții în fiecare dimineață.\n\n- Mulțumesc !\n\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU ','Interviu cu Calin Ile, INTERVIURI nr. 153','','inherit','closed','closed','','5518-autosave-v1','','','2017-04-19 21:51:31','2017-04-19 19:51:31','',5518,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2017/04/19/5518-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5522,1,'2017-04-19 20:54:01','2017-04-19 18:54:01','Toată lumea fuge de Sărbători după cadouri.

De ce? Pentru că aici se află magazinul-mamă al uneia dintre cele mai mari rețele care creează și vinde decorațiuni de specialitate și articole de Crăciun. Magazinul, un veritabil muzeul inter-activ, poartă numele lui Kathe Wohlfahrt soția lui Wilhelm. În vitrina ce dă în strada principală se află o piesă - o cutie muzicală care a schimbat decisiv istoria satului. Să fi avut aceasta puteri magice? În 1963 Wilhelm și-a petrecut Crăciunul cu soția și cu un coleg de la compania IBM unde lucrau împreună. Acesta avea cu el o cutie muzicală din lemn - creată de Erzgebirge -, în care apăreau magii, Fecioara Maria și pruncul Iisus. Trecând peste detalii, americanul a dorit să o cumpere iar Wilhelm și dat seama că distribuția unor asemenea obiecte ar putea deveni o afacere profitabilă. A înființat o companie pe numele soției sale și, cum afacerea a crescut, mai târziu fiul lor Harald, s-a gândit să creeze la Rothenburg ob der Tauber (denumire dată de fortăreața din inima așezării) un Christmas Wonderland. Un magazin galerie, în care se comercializează și azi cu succes milioane de piese sclipitoare și strălucitoare - jucării din lemn, mai ales cutii muzicale, decorațiuni pentru bradul de Crăciun, păpuși, vedeta fiind cea a Spărgătorului de Nuci, care fac Sărbătorile de iarnă să se umple de magia culorilor. Indiferent de perioada anului, turiștii vin aici să cunoască o parte din misterul împodobirii bradului de Crăciun. Este cel mai mare shop de acest gen din lume. Așa înțelegem de ce anual o așezare, hai să-i spunem orășel cu peste 10.000 de locuitori, primește circa 11 milioane de vizitatori. Toți au contribuit din plin la transformarea unei așezări sărace în una prosperă.\r\n
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5553,5554,5555,5556,5557,5558\"]\r\nCe au de văzut? Cea mai populară destinație turistică din zonă: Käthe Wohlfahrt Christmas Store e organizat pe două etaje.

Pe crengile lui sunt expuse - bună soluția de marketing -, peste 1300 de globuri de diferite culori și dimensiuni. La această oră Käthe Wohlfahrt, care a pornit ca o companie de familie, a devenit lider de piață în domeniul decorațiunilor germane tradiționale de Crăciun nu numai în Germania ci și pe mapamond. Punctul forte al produselor este că sunt proiectate și fabricate la un nivel de înaltă calitate (din lemn, sticlă, staniu etc) de către meșteșugari calificați,aici în atelierele din Rothenburg. Cea mai căutată colecție este ”Limited Edition Dreams”, care se adresează copiilor, dar de o foarte mare apreciere se bucură și seturile miniaturale de picturi pe lemn.

Este bradul... dorințelor, ne spun gazdele. Vizitatorii, cu mic cu mare, lasă aici un mesaj pentru Moș Crăciun, care după verificări atente, trimite sau nu cadourile cerute. Am dorit și noi câte ceva, dar am fost... săriți anul ăsta. Ori e vorba de criză, ori n-am fost... știți voi... Poate la anul va fi altfel.

\r\nVALLDEMOSSA - Chopin, Valsuri, Sand!
\r\nArmate de turiști contemporani se îndreaptă anual spre faimoasele Insule Baleare. O mare parte se îndreaptă spre Ibiza și Mallorca. Aceasta din urmă își expune - ca o femeie conștientă de farmecele ei -, toate bijuteriile culturale, arhitecturale și naturale.\r\n
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5559,5560,5561,5562,5563,5564\"]\r\n\r\n
Palma de Majorca este promovată, pe bună dreptate ca raiul bicicliștilor, ca destinație de plajă renumită, e cunoscută pentru iahturile luxoase care trag în Marina Port ce pot fi admirate ca la o veritabilă expoziție. Dar și pentru peșterile sale recomandate în toate circuitele. Dar Palma deține și un loc secret, care îi atrage doar pe cunoscători. Unii vin chiar în croazieră pe Mediterană pentru a-l vizita. Printre ei ne-am numărat și noi. Șosele impecabile taie nord-vestul insulei pus în valoare de o zonă montană. La capătul ei atingem Valldemossa. Un sătuc cocoțat elegant pe un versant, ca atâtea alte mii de așezări iberice. Simți aerul curat, puternic, în timp ce urci pe versantul muntelui Tex, aflat la 1064 de metri altitudine. Când ai ajuns în zona de parcare din vecinătatea parcului central ești înclinat ca orice turism să faci rapid un scurt inventar cu obiective de vizitat: șiruri de case, mici restaurante, cafenele, magazine cu confecții și suveniruri și o mănăstire. Asta-i tot? Da, și o poveste de dragoste, care a scandalizat la început localnicii. Mai târziu Valldemossa a devenit celebră tocmai datorită acestui episod... romantic.
\r\nO poveste pentru un sat-muzeu
\r\nAnul 1838. Un celebru cuplu de artiști, el polonez ea franțuzoaică, hotărăște să se ascundă de tumultul vieții în acest loc. Nonconformista e scriitoarea George Sand iar el e compozitorul Frederich Chopin. Ambii decid să-și petreacă un an în spatele pereților fortificați ai mănăstirii de la Valldemossa unde închiriază un spațiu ce aparținea fostei mănăstiri Real Cartuja de Valdldemossa, devenită proprietate privată după secularizarea din 1835. Chilia nr.4 devine astfel după trecerea anilor cea mai frecventată și căutată cameră din mănăstire dar, probabil, și din Palma de Majorca. Aici se află expus pianul Pleyel aparținând lui Chopin. În aer plutesc încă acordurile Polonezei sau Scherzo nr.2, sau balada nr.2, toate compuse aici. Cartea scrisă de George Sand ”Iarna la Mallorca” pune practic insula pe harta turismului. Astfel că milioane de turiști iau cu asalt satul-muzeu.
\r\nHedley și Patrimoniul amintirilor
\r\nTotul arată ca într-un basm căci vizita începe cu Muzeul Mănăstirii Cartuja, ale cărui exponate autentice te poartă prin istoria sa datând de la 1399 până în 1835. Totul s-a conservat: biserica de la 1751 devenită azi muzeu, sălile în care se afla farmacoteca mănăstirii, (descrisă de altfel de George Sand în cartea amintită, devenită și primul ghid turistic al zonei), locul primei imprimerii GUASP de la 1584, cu o impresionantă colecție de xilogravuri, gravuri precum și o colecție de icoane și cărți religioase. Imprimeria, ce a aparținut familiei Guasp, a funcționat fără întrerupere peste trei secole și jumătate, până în 1950. Din 1960 a ieșit la... pensie, devenind după ce a fost recondiționată, piesă de muzeu.
\r\nDesigur, un punct de atracție deosebit este chilia ”Sf. Catalina de Tomas” patroana spirituală a localității. În semn de recunoștință trebuie să știți că toate casele din sat au numărul înscris pe o placă ceramică ce o reproduce pe Sf. Catalina. Atracția irezistibilă este reprezentată de spațiul-muzeu dedicat poveștii celor doi îndrăgostiți. Aici își are sediul o fundație care și-a dedicat munca geniului celor doi romantici. Membrii activează voluntar pentru a pune în valoare patrimoniul amintirilor din... 1931. Spațiile Chiliei nr.4 găzduiesc numeroase documente autentice provenite din colecțiile patrimoniale ale Aurorei Sand, nepoata celebrei scriitoare. Printre ele manuscrisul original al cărții ”O iarnă la Mallorca”, corespondențe cu Chopin, un portret în ulei al scriitoarei realizat de Dubufe, cutia de bijuterii dăruită de compozitorul polonez, fularul acesteia, albumul cu cele 14 acuarele realizate de Maurice Sand, fiul scriitoarei. În ce-l privește pe delicatul Chopin, experții afirmă despre colecția expusă din 1969 la muzeu, concepută inspirat de către muzicologul Arthur Hedley că are o valoare inestimabilă, concurând-o pe cea a Institutului Național Chopin din Varșovia. Pianul așteaptă atingeerea mâinii fine a compozitorului, manuscrisele originalei ale Nocturnei Op 62, nr.2 sunt protejate de o vitrină (atenție, sunteți rugați să nu faceți fotografii în acest spațiu), o meșă din părul lui Chopin trezește nostalgii iar jiletca originală a costumului lui (singura piesă din garderoba sa care s-a păstrat), toate te îndeamnă să visezi la concertul imaginar pe care Chopin îl dă pentru tine.
\r\nLa festival turiști, la festival !
\r\nDe altfel Valldemossa se mândrește cu Festivalul Internațional Chopin pe care îl găzduiește anual. Plimbarea în timp nu poate fi completă fără vizitarea ”Palatului Regelui Sancho” construit de către primul rege al Mallorcăi pentru fiul său Sancho care va domni între 1311 și 1324. În prezent acesta este o proprietate privată accesibilă turiștilor. Bogățiile Palatului sunt dezvăluite pas cu pas de ghidul care ne însoțește: călcăm pe urmele lui Ruben Dario, Unanumo și Azorin, scriitori care au înobilat prin creațiile lor secolul XX.
\r\nTurul Palatului se încheie la fosta... Capelă. Ulterior ea a fost transformată în sală de concerte. Cei îndrăgostiți de muzica lui Chopin au ocazia să participe zilnic la un mini-recital cu o parte dintre cele mai cunoscute valsuri, declarații de dragoste făcute lui George Sand. 15 minute de întoarcere în timp pe aripile muzicii, oferite de... primăria localității.
\r\nGogoși pufoase și elita călătorilor
\r\nAtentă la toate detaliile instituția administrativă e preocupată să ofere turiștilor toate serviciile necesare (Centru de informare, marcaje și indicatoare, parcare centrală, spații de promenadă ce strălucesc de curățenie, hartă cu toate atracțiile centrale și zonale, programul evenimentelor artistice etc.) pentru a se bucura la maxim de timpul pe care l-au petrecut la Valldemossa. Criza, ce se simte și aici, a lovit în multe magazine de suveniruri și confecții, restaurante, dar locurile cu specific au supraviețuit. De aceea ar fi păcat să nu vă faceți timp să savurați o cafea și o Coca pe una dintre terasele din vecinătatea mănăstirii. Nu este ce ați putea crede. Coca nu este nici Cola, nici altceva, ci doar un desert pe care localnicii l-au ridicat la rang de specialitate de patiserie. O gogoașă pufoasă făcută din... aluat cu cartofi. Savurați momentul și declarați-vă fericiți. Dai un ban, faci o fotografie, și iată, felicitări, ai intrat în elita călătorilor lumii, aici unde au stat la masă probabil, regi ai Spaniei, împărați ai Japoniei, președinți ai Americii ai Chinei etc. Dar asta n-a fost tot! La reîntoarcere, pentru a mai pleca cu o amintire memorabilă, un stop la un atelier de sticlărie și bijuterii, este la fel de apreciat. Demonstrațiile la cald... te trimit ulterior spre magazinul cu produse finite, unde cromatica vaselor decorative îți reamintește că te afli într-o țară plină de viață, plină de turiști, avizi să ia cu ei o suvenire pentru acasă.

Pianul așteaptă atingeerea mâinii fine a compozitorului, manuscrisele originalei ale Nocturnei Op 62, nr.2 sunt protejate de o vitrină (atenție, sunteți rugați să nu faceți fotografii în acest spațiu), o meșă din părul lui Chopin trezește nostalgii iar jiletca originală a costumului lui (singura piesă din garderoba sa care s-a păstrat), toate te îndeamnă să visezi la concertul imaginar pe care Chopin îl dă pentru tine.
\r\nLa festival turiști, la festival !
\r\nDe altfel Valldemossa se mândrește cu Festivalul Internațional Chopin pe care îl găzduiește anual. Plimbarea în timp nu poate fi completă fără vizitarea ”Palatului Regelui Sancho” construit de către primul rege al Mallorcăi pentru fiul său Sancho care va domni între 1311 și 1324. În prezent acesta este o proprietate privată accesibilă turiștilor. Bogățiile Palatului sunt dezvăluite pas cu pas de ghidul care ne însoțește: călcăm pe urmele lui Ruben Dario, Unanumo și Azorin, scriitori care au înobilat prin creațiile lor secolul XX.
\r\nTurul Palatului se încheie la fosta... Capelă. Ulterior ea a fost transformată în sală de concerte. Cei îndrăgostiți de muzica lui Chopin au ocazia să participe zilnic la un mini-recital cu o parte dintre cele mai cunoscute valsuri, declarații de dragoste făcute lui George Sand. 15 minute de întoarcere în timp pe aripile muzicii, oferite de... primăria localității.
\r\nGogoși pufoase și elita călătorilor
\r\nAtentă la toate detaliile instituția administrativă e preocupată să ofere turiștilor toate serviciile necesare (Centru de informare, marcaje și indicatoare, parcare centrală, spații de promenadă ce strălucesc de curățenie, hartă cu toate atracțiile centrale și zonale, programul evenimentelor artistice etc.) pentru a se bucura la maxim de timpul pe care l-au petrecut la Valldemossa. Criza, ce se simte și aici, a lovit în multe magazine de suveniruri și confecții, restaurante, dar locurile cu specific au supraviețuit. De aceea ar fi păcat să nu vă faceți timp să savurați o cafea și o Coca pe una dintre terasele din vecinătatea mănăstirii. Nu este ce ați putea crede. Coca nu este nici Cola, nici altceva, ci doar un desert pe care localnicii l-au ridicat la rang de specialitate de patiserie. O gogoașă pufoasă făcută din... aluat cu cartofi. Savurați momentul și declarați-vă fericiți. Dai un ban, faci o fotografie, și iată, felicitări, ai intrat în elita călătorilor lumii, aici unde au stat la masă probabil, regi ai Spaniei, împărați ai Japoniei, președinți ai Americii ai Chinei etc. Dar asta n-a fost tot! La reîntoarcere, pentru a mai pleca cu o amintire memorabilă, un stop la un atelier de sticlărie și bijuterii, este la fel de apreciat. Demonstrațiile la cald... te trimit ulterior spre magazinul cu produse finite, unde cromatica vaselor decorative îți reamintește că te afli într-o țară plină de viață, plină de turiști, avizi să ia cu ei o suvenire pentru acasă.

\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5542,5543,5544,5545\"]\r\nE la o aruncătură de băț de Târgu Neamț. Hai, că toată lumea știe că ăsta-i locul unde s-a născut cel mai tare și hâtru povestitor, un fel de Frații Grimm, dar nemultiplicat, cum altul să se fi numit decât Ion Creangă ((1837-1889). Pus pe roțile talentului de prietenul său de o viață Mihai Eminescu, omul ăsta chiar merita un muzeu memorial - mic, plin de căldura atmosferei, dichisit, în care te conduc cei mai de suflet custozi culturali pe care i-am întâlnit pe meleagurile noastre. Îți vorbesc despre Creangă ca și cum azi dimineață a plecat la școală, iar la prânz avea deja 20 de ani. Poanta cea mai tare este că alături de Casa memorială din inima Humuleștiului (Creanga a locuit aici de la naștere până în 1846, apoi cu întreruperi până prin 1855, iar obiectivul face parte din Patrimoniul național)˝, măturată și văruită se află, chiar gard în gard, un Parc tematic. Unic, după cunoștințele noastre, dedicat unui scriitor, în cazul de față creatorului lui Nică al Petrei. Dacă muzeul, Casa Memorială ”Ion Creangă” este administrat de stat, Parcul tematic cu același nume s-a născut dintr-o inițiativă privată a unei Humuleștence get beget. Niculina Gârneț a cumpărat terenul pe care a amenajat parcul de la un strănepot al lui Creangă, ce locuia la Botoșani. Banii, contează și nu prea, pentru că investiția se vede cu ochiul liber a fost făcută nu pentru profit (un bilet întreg e 2 lei), ci mai ales pentru sufletul a zeci de generații care au fost, sunt și vor urma, să se delecteze cu poveștilor nemuritoare scrise de Creangă. Cei 200 de milioane de lei - 20.000 de lei noi -, au ajutat la fondarea Parcului în 2004, la comandarea și procurarea exponatelor și figurilor din ghips, executate de un meșter brașovean și a animalelor împăiate de Petru Arhire, un pasionat profesor din Târgu Neamț. Dacă la început localnicii au manifestat mici rezerve, când au văzut ce a ieșit, și-au schimbat părerea cu 180 de grade. Mai mult unii dintre ei au devenit promotori voluntari ai acestui loc cu două atracții - una convențională, alta inedită -, ce readuc în prim plan un uriaș povestitor ce l-a creat pentru ”Amintiri din copilărie” pe autobiograficul Nică al lui Ștefan al Petrei.

Peste toți veghează privirea atentă a lui Moș Chiorpec, care așteaptă la pingelit încălțările făcute praf de dracii neastâmpărați. În spatele acestui spectacol permanent care fascinează copiii dar și oamenii mari, mai multe camere adăpostesc o colecție impresionantă de scule, costume, elemente casnice, războaie de cusut, obiecte specifice zonei care ne permit să înțelegem azi ce am fost și ce am devenit. Mari devoratori de povești și așa trebuie să rămânem. Mai un pește, un șoric, omul mare a fost mic.

Vă sună cunoscut?!\r\n
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5535,5536,5537,5538\"]\r\nEi bine se pare că Europa contemporană a început să îşi schimbe ideile: remediile homeopate, mâncarea sănătoasă, alergatul în aer liber, saunele cu sare dar şi vacanţele de relaxare terapeutică sunt subiecte de actualitate. Specialiştii reuniți la Sumitul Mondial de Wellness de anul acesta (Global Wellness Summit - GWS) spun că turismul de sănătate va deveni în scurt timp cea mai practicată şi căutată formă de turism. Pe ce se bazează?! Iată previziunile!
\r\nTermenul de wellness, folosit internaţional şi pentru turismul de sănătate, cuprinde o gamă amplă de terapii (de la masaj, băi, la cele complementare) dar şi nutriţia, medicina tradiţională, sportul şi mişcarea, tehnicile de relaxare a minţii şi lecţiile de împlinire personală, legătura cu natura etc. “Europa este pionierul conceptului holistic de wellness, numără mai mult de jumătate din sosirile mondiale de turişti şi este cea mai mare piaţă de turism de sănătate şi înfrumuseţare din lume” afirma Susie Ellis, co-preşedinte al GWS 2016. Specialista prevede că investiţiile şi inovaţia bat la uşă în turismul de sănătate. Investiţiile private în foste proprietăţi ale statului (mari baze de tratament) dar şi noile programe de deconectare de cotidian (retragerea în natură, mănăstiri, centre speciale etc) – din ce în ce mai căutate, sunt două direcţii care vor revigora turismul european.
\r\nRelaxare la… mânăstire
\r\nAustriacul Franz Linser, fondator al Linser Hospitality (şi fost antrenor olimpic de ski) a dezvoltat noul concept de vacanţă preferat de o parte din europeni: “ Oraşele sunt aglomerate, zgomotoase iar omul modern este atacat de informaţie din toate părţile. Conectarea permanentă la internet şi diverse tehnologii aduc în furnicarul vieţii cotidiene un fundal de stres generalizat. Din ce în ce mai mulţi oameni îşi doresc să se deconecteze, să stea undeva liniştiţi, fără sentimentul că sunt atacaţi din toate părţile. Astfel tendinţa este ca proprietăţile luxoase care oferă servicii exlusiviste şi tratamente din cele mai exotice să fie lăsate în umbră de noi abordări.” Reactualizată, tema regăsirii liniştii în natură, trimite clienţii către case de lemn în copaci, hoteluri în mijlocul pustietăţilor. Doritorii pot încerca sesiuni de regăsire a liniştii personale în mânăstiri care şi-au deschis porţile către conceptul de wellness precum Schloss Mondsee din Austria şi Eremito în Italia. \r\n\r\nLa modă vor fi mini-curele
\r\nSuedeza Anna Bjurstram, proprietar al Raison D\'Etre a vorbit despre tradiţia existentă în multe ţări europene de a merge într-o vacanţă la tratament (de 10 zile sau mai mult). Bazându-se pe ritmul de muncă al societăţii moderne, pe faptul că este greu să îţi iei concedii lungi, ea prevede că pachetele de relaxare de câteva ore şi curele de sfârşit de săptămână vor fi foarte căutate. Mulţi oameni vor prefera să evite călătoriile lungi, cu avionul, şi vor alege mini-cure în staţiuni şi proprietăţi mai aproape de ei, unde se pot relaxa fizic dar pot participa şi la cursuri diverse, care să-i înveţe mai multe despre propriu corp şi despre sine.\r\n\r\nUn nou val în wellness
\r\nAlla Sokolova, General Manager al IWC Balans din Letonia a atras atenţia asupra estului Europei: “De la Marea Baltică la Marea Neagră există ţări care au dintre cele mai vechi culturi într-ale sănătăţii de pe pământ, dar au stat sub linia radarului până acum. Schimbarea a început.” Marile baze de tratament ale statului se transformă în proprietăţi fabuloase (precum Kemeri Wellness Village & Hotel din Letonia), iar tradiţiile estului European sunt prezentate ca noutăţi în lumea doritorilor de relaxare (băile cu plante aromatice, saunele cu fum, apele minerale etc).

\r\nUn studiu al Global Wellness Institute estimează o creştere anuală a sectorului turismului de sănătate (între 2012-2017) cu 7.3%, având la bază o populaţie din ce în ce mai stresată, mai longevivă dar şi mai preocupată de sănătate. Jean-Claude Baumgarten, membru GWS, fost preşedinte al Organizaţiei Mondiale a Turismului a previzionat de asemenea că “piaţa turistică europeană va creşte cu 2.8% pe an în următoarea decadă, iar turismul va îngloba aproape 60% din piaţa de retail a continentului.” Sumitul Global de Wellness de anul acesta (Global Wellness Summit - GWS) a reunit hotelieri, deţinători de complexe de cură şi tratament, specialişti în produse cosmetice dar şi nutriţionişti.

Vă sună cunoscut?!
\r\nEi bine se pare că Europa contemporană a început să îşi schimbe ideile: remediile homeopate, mâncarea sănătoasă, alergatul în aer liber, saunele cu sare dar şi vacanţele de relaxare terapeutică sunt subiecte de actualitate. Specialiştii reuniți la Sumitul Mondial de Wellness de anul acesta (Global Wellness Summit - GWS) spun că turismul de sănătate va deveni în scurt timp cea mai practicată şi căutată formă de turism. Pe ce se bazează?! Iată previziunile!
\r\nTermenul de wellness, folosit internaţional şi pentru turismul de sănătate, cuprinde o gamă amplă de terapii (de la masaj, băi, la cele complementare) dar şi nutriţia, medicina tradiţională, sportul şi mişcarea, tehnicile de relaxare a minţii şi lecţiile de împlinire personală, legătura cu natura etc. “Europa este pionierul conceptului holistic de wellness, numără mai mult de jumătate din sosirile mondiale de turişti şi este cea mai mare piaţă de turism de sănătate şi înfrumuseţare din lume” afirma Susie Ellis, co-preşedinte al GWS 2016. Specialista prevede că investiţiile şi inovaţia bat la uşă în turismul de sănătate. Investiţiile private în foste proprietăţi ale statului (mari baze de tratament) dar şi noile programe de deconectare de cotidian (retragerea în natură, mănăstiri, centre speciale etc) – din ce în ce mai căutate, sunt două direcţii care vor revigora turismul european.
\r\nRelaxare la… mânăstire
\r\nAustriacul Franz Linser, fondator al Linser Hospitality (şi fost antrenor olimpic de ski) a dezvoltat noul concept de vacanţă preferat de o parte din europeni: “ Oraşele sunt aglomerate, zgomotoase iar omul modern este atacat de informaţie din toate părţile. Conectarea permanentă la internet şi diverse tehnologii aduc în furnicarul vieţii cotidiene un fundal de stres generalizat. Din ce în ce mai mulţi oameni îşi doresc să se deconecteze, să stea undeva liniştiţi, fără sentimentul că sunt atacaţi din toate părţile. Astfel tendinţa este ca proprietăţile luxoase care oferă servicii exlusiviste şi tratamente din cele mai exotice să fie lăsate în umbră de noi abordări.” Reactualizată, tema regăsirii liniştii în natură, trimite clienţii către case de lemn în copaci, hoteluri în mijlocul pustietăţilor. Doritorii pot încerca sesiuni de regăsire a liniştii personale în mânăstiri care şi-au deschis porţile către conceptul de wellness precum Schloss Mondsee din Austria şi Eremito în Italia. \r\n\r\nLa modă vor fi mini-curele
\r\nSuedeza Anna Bjurstram, proprietar al Raison D\'Etre a vorbit despre tradiţia existentă în multe ţări europene de a merge într-o vacanţă la tratament (de 10 zile sau mai mult). Bazându-se pe ritmul de muncă al societăţii moderne, pe faptul că este greu să îţi iei concedii lungi, ea prevede că pachetele de relaxare de câteva ore şi curele de sfârşit de săptămână vor fi foarte căutate. Mulţi oameni vor prefera să evite călătoriile lungi, cu avionul, şi vor alege mini-cure în staţiuni şi proprietăţi mai aproape de ei, unde se pot relaxa fizic dar pot participa şi la cursuri diverse, care să-i înveţe mai multe despre propriu corp şi despre sine.\r\n\r\nUn nou val în wellness
\r\nAlla Sokolova, General Manager al IWC Balans din Letonia a atras atenţia asupra estului Europei: “De la Marea Baltică la Marea Neagră există ţări care au dintre cele mai vechi culturi într-ale sănătăţii de pe pământ, dar au stat sub linia radarului până acum. Schimbarea a început.” Marile baze de tratament ale statului se transformă în proprietăţi fabuloase (precum Kemeri Wellness Village & Hotel din Letonia), iar tradiţiile estului European sunt prezentate ca noutăţi în lumea doritorilor de relaxare (băile cu plante aromatice, saunele cu fum, apele minerale etc). Ţări precum Macedonia, Georgia, Croaţia, Muntenegru, Slovenia, Letonia, Lituania (din păcate România nu este considerată încă un jucător semnificativ) îşi atrag mai mulţi vizitatori prezentându-şi ofertele de wellness iar mari branduri ale domeniului investesc şi mai departe spre est în concepte precum Six Senses în Kazakhstan şi Chenot Palace - Azerbaijan.

Piața destinațiilor s-a comprimat iar singure Grecia, Spania ori Italia, eventual Bulgaria nu vor putea să absoarbă milioanele de turiști care ”emigrau” vara pe conductele de travel ale Turciei, Egiptului, Tunisiei, Marocului etc. În fine, din toate informațiile oferite de agențiile de turism autohtone, programul Early Booking merge foarte bine iar vânzările pe multe stațiuni din străinătate, gestionate serios, pot sugera un aer de optimism . Și outgoing-ul are nevoie de aer proaspăt. El oxigenează creierul călătorilor dar și ai angajaților instituțiilor de stat abilitate. Mi-aș dori să devenim contributorii dar și martorii unui 2017 excepțional pentru români. La Mulți Ani și bucurați-vă de viață! Bucuria seamănă cu o călătorie în prezent!

\r\nE la o aruncătură de băț de Târgu Neamț. Hai, că toată lumea știe că ăsta-i locul unde s-a născut cel mai tare și hâtru povestitor, un fel de Frații Grimm, dar nemultiplicat, cum altul să se fi numit decât Ion Creangă ((1837-1889). Pus pe roțile talentului de prietenul său de o viață Mihai Eminescu, omul ăsta chiar merita un muzeu memorial - mic, plin de căldura atmosferei, dichisit, în care te conduc cei mai de suflet custozi culturali pe care i-am întâlnit pe meleagurile noastre. Îți vorbesc despre Creangă ca și cum azi dimineață a plecat la școală, iar la prânz avea deja 20 de ani. Poanta cea mai tare este că alături de Casa memorială din inima Humuleștiului (Creanga a locuit aici de la naștere până în 1846, apoi cu întreruperi până prin 1855, iar obiectivul face parte din Patrimoniul național)˝, măturată și văruită se află, chiar gard în gard, un Parc tematic. Unic, după cunoștințele noastre, dedicat unui scriitor, în cazul de față creatorului lui Nică al Petrei. Dacă muzeul, Casa Memorială ”Ion Creangă” este administrat de stat, Parcul tematic cu același nume s-a născut dintr-o inițiativă privată a unei Humuleștence get beget. Niculina Gârneț a cumpărat terenul pe care a amenajat parcul de la un strănepot al lui Creangă, ce locuia la Botoșani. Banii, contează și nu prea, pentru că investiția se vede cu ochiul liber a fost făcută nu pentru profit (un bilet întreg e 2 lei), ci mai ales pentru sufletul a zeci de generații care au fost, sunt și vor urma, să se delecteze cu poveștilor nemuritoare scrise de Creangă. Cei 200 de milioane de lei - 20.000 de lei noi -, au ajutat la fondarea Parcului în 2004, la comandarea și procurarea exponatelor și figurilor din ghips, executate de un meșter brașovean și a animalelor împăiate de Petru Arhire, un pasionat profesor din Târgu Neamț. Dacă la început localnicii au manifestat mici rezerve, când au văzut ce a ieșit, și-au schimbat părerea cu 180 de grade. Mai mult unii dintre ei au devenit promotori voluntari ai acestui loc cu două atracții - una convențională, alta inedită -, ce readuc în prim plan un uriaș povestitor ce l-a creat pentru ”Amintiri din copilărie” pe autobiograficul Nică al lui Ștefan al Petrei.
\r\nCred că poate fi considerat un Harry Potter al spațiului moldav, din toate vremurile. Căci, știm cu toții că poveștile sunt nemuritoare. Și ce Hall of Fame întâlnim în Parcul tematic! La grațioasa și atenta Capră cu trei iezi, salivează cu șiretenie lupul, mai încolo sub un copac își linge rănile ursul păcălit de vulpe, cocoșul ține tare de Punguța cu doi bani (atenție, criza pare să cucurigească el, nu s-a încheiat), mătușa Mărioara și Smărăndița îl caută din priviri pe Ionică plecat să prindă Pupăza din tei. Peste toți veghează privirea atentă a lui Moș Chiorpec, care așteaptă la pingelit încălțările făcute praf de dracii neastâmpărați. În spatele acestui spectacol permanent care fascinează copiii dar și oamenii mari, mai multe camere adăpostesc o colecție impresionantă de scule, costume, elemente casnice, războaie de cusut, obiecte specifice zonei care ne permit să înțelegem azi ce am fost și ce am devenit. Mari devoratori de povești și așa trebuie să rămânem. Mai un pește, un șoric, omul mare a fost mic. Și pentru asta un covor de mulțumiri la picioarele lui Creangă dar și al Niculinei Gârneț, o investitoare culturală care a făcut ca lumea să fie mai mare. Și mai frumoasă.
\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n_______________________________\r\nBĂILE HERCULANE - între zei, miracole și muritori \r\n\r\nE imposibil să nu te simți bine la evenimentele organizate de către Asociația Pro Turism Herculane. Vă anunțm numărul trecut că seria de conferințe a ajuns la a VI-a ediție. Și că organizatorii vor pentru viitoarea sesiune, din primăvară, să facă o dezbatere internațională di grande.\r\n\r\nEra de așteptat ca și la recenta ediție să apară invitați și prezentatori surprinzători. De data aceasta au fost mai puțini arheologi, istorici, profesori, teoreticieni și am putea spune că tot ce am auzit și făcut a fost șocant de plăcut. Asta pentru că alături de jurnaliști, blogeri, experți și consultanți în turism, ne-au luat pulsul niște fete frumoase și deștepte care ne-au trimis la muncă prin sesiuni de exerciții de repunere în formă. De fapt ăsta a și fost scopul Conferinței ”Mai mult decât apă - Wellness, energie și viață”. Laura Pătru, specialista cu comunicarea al Asociației Pro Turism Herculane a subliniat că reflectoarele au fost aprinse pe promovarea prevenției și a unui stil de viață sănătos și pe valorificarea corectă a resurselor naturale și istorice ale zonei. De fapt axul tematic în jurul căruia au gravitat și edițiile anterioare.\r\n\r\n,,Vrem să demonstrăm că într-un mediu competitiv al wellness-ului și Herculane poate avea un cuvânt de spus prin investițiile constante ale mediului privat, și că acesta are toate resursele necesare pentru a oferi pachetul complet de sănătate și relaxare: aer ionizat negativ, ape termale și o multitudine de activități sportive. Herculane în acest moment are nevoie de un suflu tânăr, de viziune și de cât mai multe proiecte noi. Din acest motiv am ales să avem la această ediție, oameni tineri din toate colțurile țării care au entuziasmul necesar și dorința de implicare pentru a produce o diferență. Asociația Pro Turism nu înseamnă numai comunitatea celor ce locuiesc aici, pentru că Herculane nu este numai al nostru. Apele termale, frumusețea zonei și miracolul naturii nu ne-am propus să le păstrăm doar pentru noi, sunt ale tuturor iar scopul nostru este să le promovăm, pentru că ele merită să fie cunoscute, apreciate și valorificate” - sublinia Marinela Badea, președintele Pro Turism Herculane, în sala de conferințe a Afrodita Resort & Spa din stațiune. \r\nAu făcut show și ne-am dat în spectacol cu Mihaela Dumitru (Wellness Influencer. Specialist în nutriție și preparator fizic) care a vorbit despre ”Bunăstarea din și prin apă”. O prezentare energizantă din care am extras idei benefice: apa este un mijloc de comunicare; apa este un magnet pentru istoria construcțiilor comunitare de-a lungul istoriei; apa termală este nu numai miracolul zeilor, ci și cadoul făcut de aceștia oamenilor; există o chimie a corpului care contribuie la echilibrarea stării de bine în viața noastră. Ioana Marian (Ambasador Global Wellness Day în România) a punctat la ”Oportunitățile de dezvoltare a turismului Spa & Wellness la Băile Herculane”. Invitata a arătat că în 2015 s-au încasat la nivel național 7,7 milioane de euro din segmentul spa, relaxare și prevenție. Potențialul este însă uriaș. Europenii fac cele mai multe călătorii pentru segmentul de întreținere dar primii în ceea ce privește cheltuielile sunt nord-americanii. Promisiunea slogan nu mai este doar ”tinerețe fără bătrânețe”, ci mai ales ”Mențineți trupul sănătos și noi vă dăm mintea înapoi!”. În lume se naște un nou concept - Staycation”, care se exprimă prin construirea de oaze de sănătate în vecinătatea metropolelor sau a marilor zone urbane. Astfel vacanțele se vor reduce la circa 2-3 zile, preponderent spre weekend, față de 7-8 zile, iar oferta este în curs de updatare. Efectele pentru întreținerea sănătății vor fi din ce în ce mai concentrate și... costisitoare, adică benefice pentru turismul de wellness. Segment va crește în următorii ani cu o rată de 2,8 comparativ cu doar 1,9% cît au consemnat ultimii ani. Despre comportamentul clienților și ce caută aceștia într-o unitate turistică balneară s-a exprimat cu pasiune blogerul și specialistul în PR Mirela Surghie; despre managementul calității și al stresului în afaceri, s-a pronunțat Dan Anghelescu, proprietar de agenție de turism și specialist în turism. Cum poți deveni competitiv prin promovare a fost întrebarea la care a oferit soluții Traian Bădulescu, jurnalist și consultant în turism. Toată lumea a aplaudat în final prestația lui Florin Arjocu, ghid de turism căruia îi place să se prezinte ca... povestitor și călător al României frumoase. Am remarcat prezența Ambasadorilor Băilor Herculane, o mare parte din ei membrii ai Clubului Presei de Turism - FIJET România. Printre ei se numără și autorul articolului.

\r\nNici n-a căzut ultima zăpadă electorală că au început răspândacii de pe sticlă să prorocească cum că 2017 va fi un an dificil pentru economia și viața socială a României. Angajați talentați în zvonistică, plătită ce-i drept imperial, se străduiesc să tragă semnale de alarmă într-un triaj de unde nu a plecat deocamdată nici o locomotivă a timpului. Noi, ăștia, care ne ocupăm de nișe economice, în speță de turism, îndrăznim să combatem gulașul catastrofic, fără gust, căci n-are în el nici carne nici cărnați și nici măcar cartofi.
Din punct de vedere turistic România pare să respire mai bine, după un an în care circulația internă a reprezentat plămânul principal. În 2017 e de așteptat ca măcar instituțiile statului să dea drumul la ”robinetul” voucherelor de vacanță. Măsura nu are caracter populist căci se practică cu succes în țări unde politicile sociale au în centrul lor sănătatea omului. Dacă se va întîmpla vom asista la un veritabil ”cutremur turistic”, ca să ne păstrăm în linia catastrofiștilor. Voucherele de vacanță vor ajuta angajatul dar și angajatorul, cu condiția să aibă din ce să fie oferite. Și atunci trebuie să milităm pentru o economie robustă și sănătoasă. Iar la asta va contribui și faptul că turismul se va fiscaliza și albi mai mult. Cine nu va respecta regulile jocului va rămâne spectator.
\r\nDin punct de vedere al incoming-ului e de așteptat ca numărul turiștilor străini să crească în continuare în România asta deoarece o serie de destinații străine n-au cum să fie garantate și nici securizate. Deocamdată. Terorismul rămâne și în 2017 principalul dușman al liberei circulații, inclusiv al celei turistice. România va face o figură și mai frumoasă dacă spiritului ospitalier i se va da o importanță mai mare decât monedei euro. Piața destinațiilor s-a comprimat iar singure Grecia, Spania ori Italia, eventual Bulgaria nu vor putea să absoarbă milioanele de turiști care ”emigrau” vara pe conductele de travel ale Turciei, Egiptului, Tunisiei, Marocului etc. În fine, din toate informațiile oferite de agențiile de turism autohtone, programul Early Booking merge foarte bine iar vânzările pe multe stațiuni din străinătate, gestionate serios, pot sugera un aer de optimism . Și outgoing-ul are nevoie de aer proaspăt. El oxigenează creierul călătorilor dar și ai angajaților instituțiilor de stat abilitate. Mi-aș dori să devenim contributorii dar și martorii unui 2017 excepțional pentru români. La Mulți Ani și bucurați-vă de viață! Bucuria seamănă cu o călătorie în prezent!
Beau ceai doar dacă mă doare ceva, la tratament merg numai pensionarii, orice se rezolvă cu antibiotice.... Vă sună cunoscut?!\r\n
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5535,5536,5537,5538\"]\r\nEi bine se pare că Europa contemporană a început să îşi schimbe ideile: remediile homeopate, mâncarea sănătoasă, alergatul în aer liber, saunele cu sare dar şi vacanţele de relaxare terapeutică sunt subiecte de actualitate. Specialiştii reuniți la Sumitul Mondial de Wellness de anul acesta (Global Wellness Summit - GWS) spun că turismul de sănătate va deveni în scurt timp cea mai practicată şi căutată formă de turism. Pe ce se bazează?! Iată previziunile!
\r\nTermenul de wellness, folosit internaţional şi pentru turismul de sănătate, cuprinde o gamă amplă de terapii (de la masaj, băi, la cele complementare) dar şi nutriţia, medicina tradiţională, sportul şi mişcarea, tehnicile de relaxare a minţii şi lecţiile de împlinire personală, legătura cu natura etc. “Europa este pionierul conceptului holistic de wellness, numără mai mult de jumătate din sosirile mondiale de turişti şi este cea mai mare piaţă de turism de sănătate şi înfrumuseţare din lume” afirma Susie Ellis, co-preşedinte al GWS 2016. Specialista prevede că investiţiile şi inovaţia bat la uşă în turismul de sănătate. Investiţiile private în foste proprietăţi ale statului (mari baze de tratament) dar şi noile programe de deconectare de cotidian (retragerea în natură, mănăstiri, centre speciale etc) – din ce în ce mai căutate, sunt două direcţii care vor revigora turismul european.
\r\nRelaxare la… mânăstire
\r\nAustriacul Franz Linser, fondator al Linser Hospitality (şi fost antrenor olimpic de ski) a dezvoltat noul concept de vacanţă preferat de o parte din europeni: “ Oraşele sunt aglomerate, zgomotoase iar omul modern este atacat de informaţie din toate părţile. Conectarea permanentă la internet şi diverse tehnologii aduc în furnicarul vieţii cotidiene un fundal de stres generalizat. Din ce în ce mai mulţi oameni îşi doresc să se deconecteze, să stea undeva liniştiţi, fără sentimentul că sunt atacaţi din toate părţile. Astfel tendinţa este ca proprietăţile luxoase care oferă servicii exlusiviste şi tratamente din cele mai exotice să fie lăsate în umbră de noi abordări.” Reactualizată, tema regăsirii liniştii în natură, trimite clienţii către case de lemn în copaci, hoteluri în mijlocul pustietăţilor. Doritorii pot încerca sesiuni de regăsire a liniştii personale în mânăstiri care şi-au deschis porţile către conceptul de wellness precum Schloss Mondsee din Austria şi Eremito în Italia. \r\n\r\nLa modă vor fi mini-curele
\r\nSuedeza Anna Bjurstram, proprietar al Raison D\'Etre a vorbit despre tradiţia existentă în multe ţări europene de a merge într-o vacanţă la tratament (de 10 zile sau mai mult). Bazându-se pe ritmul de muncă al societăţii moderne, pe faptul că este greu să îţi iei concedii lungi, ea prevede că pachetele de relaxare de câteva ore şi curele de sfârşit de săptămână vor fi foarte căutate. Mulţi oameni vor prefera să evite călătoriile lungi, cu avionul, şi vor alege mini-cure în staţiuni şi proprietăţi mai aproape de ei, unde se pot relaxa fizic dar pot participa şi la cursuri diverse, care să-i înveţe mai multe despre propriu corp şi despre sine.\r\n\r\nUn nou val în wellness
\r\nAlla Sokolova, General Manager al IWC Balans din Letonia a atras atenţia asupra estului Europei: “De la Marea Baltică la Marea Neagră există ţări care au dintre cele mai vechi culturi într-ale sănătăţii de pe pământ, dar au stat sub linia radarului până acum. Schimbarea a început.” Marile baze de tratament ale statului se transformă în proprietăţi fabuloase (precum Kemeri Wellness Village & Hotel din Letonia), iar tradiţiile estului European sunt prezentate ca noutăţi în lumea doritorilor de relaxare (băile cu plante aromatice, saunele cu fum, apele minerale etc). Ţări precum Macedonia, Georgia, Croaţia, Muntenegru, Slovenia, Letonia, Lituania (din păcate România nu este considerată încă un jucător semnificativ) îşi atrag mai mulţi vizitatori prezentându-şi ofertele de wellness iar mari branduri ale domeniului investesc şi mai departe spre est în concepte precum Six Senses în Kazakhstan şi Chenot Palace - Azerbaijan.
\r\n\r\nSe joacă în Europa de est
\r\n“Fiţi pregătiţi pentru primul lanţ de proprităţi cu băi termale (o colecţie de hoteluri de wellness deţinute de o singură companie) care se va întinde din Polonia în nord până în Moldova în sud. Vor fi proprietăţi cu băi termale fantastice care vor integra în conceptul lor medicina, bazate pe abundenţa de izvoare naturale, cure medicale dar şi oraşe bogate în atracţii din ţări ale Europei de est (precum Cehia, Ungaria, Slovenia şi Slovacia)”- a spus Andrew Gibson, de la Fairmont Raffles Hotels and Resorts (Marea Britanie şi Emirate). Statul şi companiile private vor lucra împreună pentru a prezenta destinaţii mai sigure iar birourile de promovare vor colabora în crearea unui “Drum al băilor termale” care se va întinde de la Budapesta până la Karlovy Vary.\r\nLegi speciale pentru… wellness!
\r\nMai multe studii arată că peste jumătate din europeni au o greutate mai mare decât ar trebui (sunt supraponderali) şi că rata obezităţii s-a triplat în diferite ţări, din anii ‘80 până acum. Un stil de viaţă sănătos este adus în atenţia publicului iar produsele tip fast-food sunt puse la colţ. Marea Britanie, Țările scandinave, Franţa şi Ungaria sunt primele state care au introdus o nouă taxă, pe zahărul din diverse produse alimentare, băuturi etc. Specialiştii cred că în viitor vor apărea legi asemănătoare care să vizeze produsele cu mulţi aditivi, super procesate. De asemenea, marile companii îşi vor schimba viziunea şi vor crea branduri alimentare care să accentueze calităţile nutritive ale produselor dar şi valoarea lor... terapeutică!\r\nUrmând principiul sănătăţii holistice specialiştii au conectat piaţa de wellness cu cea a produselor şi tratamentelor cosmetice. Previziunile arată pe de o parte că accentul se va pune pe conţinutul produselor cosmetice şi nu pe rezultatele miraculoase promise şi, pe de altă parte, că europenii vor îmbrăţişa tratamente de ultimă generaţie deja utilizate intens în Asia sau SUA. Frumuseţea este din nou privită ca un concept mai amplu (nu doar vizibil atractiv dar şi sănătos) iar companii precum L’Oreal sau Pierre Fabre deja propun branduri de dermatocosmetice, bazate pe ape minerale precum Vichy, La Roche-Posay sau Avene. Procedurile de înfrumuseţare cu ultrasunete, microdermabraziunea etc. vor apărea în oferta de wellness a centrelor, pe lângă orele de yoga ori nutriţie.
\r\nCe spun cifrele?
\r\nUn studiu al Global Wellness Institute estimează o creştere anuală a sectorului turismului de sănătate (între 2012-2017) cu 7.3%, având la bază o populaţie din ce în ce mai stresată, mai longevivă dar şi mai preocupată de sănătate. Jean-Claude Baumgarten, membru GWS, fost preşedinte al Organizaţiei Mondiale a Turismului a previzionat de asemenea că “piaţa turistică europeană va creşte cu 2.8% pe an în următoarea decadă, iar turismul va îngloba aproape 60% din piaţa de retail a continentului.” Sumitul Global de Wellness de anul acesta (Global Wellness Summit - GWS) a reunit hotelieri, deţinători de complexe de cură şi tratament, specialişti în produse cosmetice dar şi nutriţionişti. Cea de a zecea ediţie a conferinţei a avut loc în staţiunea Kitzbühel, din Tirol, Austria.

Ioana Marian (Ambasador Global Wellness Day în România) a punctat la ”Oportunitățile de dezvoltare a turismului Spa & Wellness la Băile Herculane”. Invitata a arătat că în 2015 s-au încasat la nivel național 7,7 milioane de euro din segmentul spa, relaxare și prevenție. Potențialul este însă uriaș.

\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5542,5543,5544,5545\"]\r\nE la o aruncătură de băț de Târgu Neamț. Hai, că toată lumea știe că ăsta-i locul unde s-a născut cel mai tare și hâtru povestitor, un fel de Frații Grimm, dar nemultiplicat, cum altul să se fi numit decât Ion Creangă ((1837-1889). Pus pe roțile talentului de prietenul său de o viață Mihai Eminescu, omul ăsta chiar merita un muzeu memorial - mic, plin de căldura atmosferei, dichisit, în care te conduc cei mai de suflet custozi culturali pe care i-am întâlnit pe meleagurile noastre. Îți vorbesc despre Creangă ca și cum azi dimineață a plecat la școală, iar la prânz avea deja 20 de ani. Poanta cea mai tare este că alături de Casa memorială din inima Humuleștiului (Creanga a locuit aici de la naștere până în 1846, apoi cu întreruperi până prin 1855, iar obiectivul face parte din Patrimoniul național)˝, măturată și văruită se află, chiar gard în gard, un Parc tematic. Unic, după cunoștințele noastre, dedicat unui scriitor, în cazul de față creatorului lui Nică al Petrei. Dacă muzeul, Casa Memorială ”Ion Creangă” este administrat de stat, Parcul tematic cu același nume s-a născut dintr-o inițiativă privată a unei Humuleștence get beget. Niculina Gârneț a cumpărat terenul pe care a amenajat parcul de la un strănepot al lui Creangă, ce locuia la Botoșani. Banii, contează și nu prea, pentru că investiția se vede cu ochiul liber a fost făcută nu pentru profit (un bilet întreg e 2 lei), ci mai ales pentru sufletul a zeci de generații care au fost, sunt și vor urma, să se delecteze cu poveștilor nemuritoare scrise de Creangă. Cei 200 de milioane de lei - 20.000 de lei noi -, au ajutat la fondarea Parcului în 2004, la comandarea și procurarea exponatelor și figurilor din ghips, executate de un meșter brașovean și a animalelor împăiate de Petru Arhire, un pasionat profesor din Târgu Neamț. Dacă la început localnicii au manifestat mici rezerve, când au văzut ce a ieșit, și-au schimbat părerea cu 180 de grade. Mai mult unii dintre ei au devenit promotori voluntari ai acestui loc cu două atracții - una convențională, alta inedită -, ce readuc în prim plan un uriaș povestitor ce l-a creat pentru ”Amintiri din copilărie” pe autobiograficul Nică al lui Ștefan al Petrei.
\r\nCred că poate fi considerat un Harry Potter al spațiului moldav, din toate vremurile. Căci, știm cu toții că poveștile sunt nemuritoare. Și ce Hall of Fame întâlnim în Parcul tematic! La grațioasa și atenta Capră cu trei iezi, salivează cu șiretenie lupul, mai încolo sub un copac își linge rănile ursul păcălit de vulpe, cocoșul ține tare de Punguța cu doi bani (atenție, criza pare să cucurigească el, nu s-a încheiat), mătușa Mărioara și Smărăndița îl caută din priviri pe Ionică plecat să prindă Pupăza din tei. Peste toți veghează privirea atentă a lui Moș Chiorpec, care așteaptă la pingelit încălțările făcute praf de dracii neastâmpărați. În spatele acestui spectacol permanent care fascinează copiii dar și oamenii mari, mai multe camere adăpostesc o colecție impresionantă de scule, costume, elemente casnice, războaie de cusut, obiecte specifice zonei care ne permit să înțelegem azi ce am fost și ce am devenit. Mari devoratori de povești și așa trebuie să rămânem. Mai un pește, un șoric, omul mare a fost mic. Și pentru asta un covor de mulțumiri la picioarele lui Creangă dar și al Niculinei Gârneț, o investitoare culturală care a făcut ca lumea să fie mai mare. Și mai frumoasă.

Vă anunțm numărul trecut că seria de conferințe a ajuns la a VI-a ediție.

De ce? Pentru că aici se află magazinul-mamă al uneia dintre cele mai mari rețele care creează și vinde decorațiuni de specialitate și articole de Crăciun. Magazinul, un veritabil muzeul inter-activ, poartă numele lui Kathe Wohlfahrt soția lui Wilhelm. În vitrina ce dă în strada principală se află o piesă - o cutie muzicală care a schimbat decisiv istoria satului. Să fi avut aceasta puteri magice? În 1963 Wilhelm și-a petrecut Crăciunul cu soția și cu un coleg de la compania IBM unde lucrau împreună. Acesta avea cu el o cutie muzicală din lemn - creată de Erzgebirge -, în care apăreau magii, Fecioara Maria și pruncul Iisus. Trecând peste detalii, americanul a dorit să o cumpere iar Wilhelm și dat seama că distribuția unor asemenea obiecte ar putea deveni o afacere profitabilă. A înființat o companie pe numele soției sale și, cum afacerea a crescut, mai târziu fiul lor Harald, s-a gândit să creeze la Rothenburg ob der Tauber (denumire dată de fortăreața din inima așezării) un Christmas Wonderland. Un magazin galerie, în care se comercializează și azi cu succes milioane de piese sclipitoare și strălucitoare - jucării din lemn, mai ales cutii muzicale, decorațiuni pentru bradul de Crăciun, păpuși, vedeta fiind cea a Spărgătorului de Nuci, care fac Sărbătorile de iarnă să se umple de magia culorilor. Indiferent de perioada anului, turiștii vin aici să cunoască o parte din misterul împodobirii bradului de Crăciun. Este cel mai mare shop de acest gen din lume. Așa înțelegem de ce anual o așezare, hai să-i spunem orășel cu peste 10.000 de locuitori, primește circa 11 milioane de vizitatori. Toți au contribuit din plin la transformarea unei așezări sărace în una prosperă.\n\n
\nCe au de văzut? Cea mai populară destinație turistică din zonă: Käthe Wohlfahrt Christmas Store e organizat pe două etaje. Pare un magazin din turtă dulce. Piesa de rezistență e un brad uriaș. Aflat chiar în centrul celui mai mare raion el măsoară aproape 6 metri înălțime. Pe crengile lui sunt expuse - bună soluția de marketing -, peste 1300 de globuri de diferite culori și dimensiuni. La această oră Käthe Wohlfahrt, care a pornit ca o companie de familie, a devenit lider de piață în domeniul decorațiunilor germane tradiționale de Crăciun nu numai în Germania ci și pe mapamond. Punctul forte al produselor este că sunt proiectate și fabricate la un nivel de înaltă calitate (din lemn, sticlă, staniu etc) de către meșteșugari calificați,aici în atelierele din Rothenburg. Cea mai căutată colecție este ”Limited Edition Dreams”, care se adresează copiilor, dar de o foarte mare apreciere se bucură și seturile miniaturale de picturi pe lemn. Ele pot fi achiziționate și din magazinele proprii ce funcționează la Berlin, Rudeheim, Heidelberg, Nurnberg, Oberammergau etc. Dacă la intrarea principală te întâmpină statuia Spărgătorului de nuci, la ieșire îți reține atenția un brad decorat numai cu bilețele. Este bradul... dorințelor, ne spun gazdele. Vizitatorii, cu mic cu mare, lasă aici un mesaj pentru Moș Crăciun, care după verificări atente, trimite sau nu cadourile cerute. Am dorit și noi câte ceva, dar am fost... săriți anul ăsta. Ori e vorba de criză, ori n-am fost... știți voi... Poate la anul va fi altfel.

\nVALLDEMOSSA - Chopin, Valsuri, Sand!
\nArmate de turiști contemporani se îndreaptă anual spre faimoasele Insule Baleare. O mare parte se îndreaptă spre Ibiza și Mallorca. Aceasta din urmă își expune - ca o femeie conștientă de farmecele ei -, toate bijuteriile culturale, arhitecturale și naturale.
\nPalma de Majorca este promovată, pe bună dreptate ca raiul bicicliștilor, ca destinație de plajă renumită, e cunoscută pentru iahturile luxoase care trag în Marina Port ce pot fi admirate ca la o veritabilă expoziție. Dar și pentru peșterile sale recomandate în toate circuitele. Dar Palma deține și un loc secret, care îi atrage doar pe cunoscători. Unii vin chiar în croazieră pe Mediterană pentru a-l vizita. Printre ei ne-am numărat și noi. Șosele impecabile taie nord-vestul insulei pus în valoare de o zonă montană. La capătul ei atingem Valldemossa. Un sătuc cocoțat elegant pe un versant, ca atâtea alte mii de așezări iberice. Simți aerul curat, puternic, în timp ce urci pe versantul muntelui Tex, aflat la 1064 de metri altitudine. Când ai ajuns în zona de parcare din vecinătatea parcului central ești înclinat ca orice turism să faci rapid un scurt inventar cu obiective de vizitat: șiruri de case, mici restaurante, cafenele, magazine cu confecții și suveniruri și o mănăstire. Asta-i tot? Da, și o poveste de dragoste, care a scandalizat la început localnicii. Mai târziu Valldemossa a devenit celebră tocmai datorită acestui episod... romantic.
\nO poveste pentru un sat-muzeu
\nAnul 1838. Un celebru cuplu de artiști, el polonez ea franțuzoaică, hotărăște să se ascundă de tumultul vieții în acest loc. Nonconformista e scriitoarea George Sand iar el e compozitorul Frederich Chopin. Ambii decid să-și petreacă un an în spatele pereților fortificați ai mănăstirii de la Valldemossa unde închiriază un spațiu ce aparținea fostei mănăstiri Real Cartuja de Valdldemossa, devenită proprietate privată după secularizarea din 1835. Chilia nr.4 devine astfel după trecerea anilor cea mai frecventată și căutată cameră din mănăstire dar, probabil, și din Palma de Majorca. Aici se află expus pianul Pleyel aparținând lui Chopin. În aer plutesc încă acordurile Polonezei sau Scherzo nr.2, sau balada nr.2, toate compuse aici. Cartea scrisă de George Sand ”Iarna la Mallorca” pune practic insula pe harta turismului. Astfel că milioane de turiști iau cu asalt satul-muzeu.
\nHedley și Patrimoniul amintirilor
\nTotul arată ca într-un basm căci vizita începe cu Muzeul Mănăstirii Cartuja, ale cărui exponate autentice te poartă prin istoria sa datând de la 1399 până în 1835. Totul s-a conservat: biserica de la 1751 devenită azi muzeu, sălile în care se afla farmacoteca mănăstirii, (descrisă de altfel de George Sand în cartea amintită, devenită și primul ghid turistic al zonei), locul primei imprimerii GUASP de la 1584, cu o impresionantă colecție de xilogravuri, gravuri precum și o colecție de icoane și cărți religioase. Imprimeria, ce a aparținut familiei Guasp, a funcționat fără întrerupere peste trei secole și jumătate, până în 1950. Din 1960 a ieșit la... pensie, devenind după ce a fost recondiționată, piesă de muzeu.
\nDesigur, un punct de atracție deosebit este chilia ”Sf. Catalina de Tomas” patroana spirituală a localității. În semn de recunoștință trebuie să știți că toate casele din sat au numărul înscris pe o placă ceramică ce o reproduce pe Sf. Catalina. Atracția irezistibilă este reprezentată de spațiul-muzeu dedicat poveștii celor doi îndrăgostiți. Aici își are sediul o fundație care și-a dedicat munca geniului celor doi romantici. Membrii activează voluntar pentru a pune în valoare patrimoniul amintirilor din... 1931. Spațiile Chiliei nr.4 găzduiesc numeroase documente autentice provenite din colecțiile patrimoniale ale Aurorei Sand, nepoata celebrei scriitoare. Printre ele manuscrisul original al cărții ”O iarnă la Mallorca”, corespondențe cu Chopin, un portret în ulei al scriitoarei realizat de Dubufe, cutia de bijuterii dăruită de compozitorul polonez, fularul acesteia, albumul cu cele 14 acuarele realizate de Maurice Sand, fiul scriitoarei. În ce-l privește pe delicatul Chopin, experții afirmă despre colecția expusă din 1969 la muzeu, concepută inspirat de către muzicologul Arthur Hedley că are o valoare inestimabilă, concurând-o pe cea a Institutului Național Chopin din Varșovia. Pianul așteaptă atingeerea mâinii fine a compozitorului, manuscrisele originalei ale Nocturnei Op 62, nr.2 sunt protejate de o vitrină (atenție, sunteți rugați să nu faceți fotografii în acest spațiu), o meșă din părul lui Chopin trezește nostalgii iar jiletca originală a costumului lui (singura piesă din garderoba sa care s-a păstrat), toate te îndeamnă să visezi la concertul imaginar pe care Chopin îl dă pentru tine.
\nLa festival turiști, la festival !
\nDe altfel Valldemossa se mândrește cu Festivalul Internațional Chopin pe care îl găzduiește anual. Plimbarea în timp nu poate fi completă fără vizitarea ”Palatului Regelui Sancho” construit de către primul rege al Mallorcăi pentru fiul său Sancho care va domni între 1311 și 1324. În prezent acesta este o proprietate privată accesibilă turiștilor. Bogățiile Palatului sunt dezvăluite pas cu pas de ghidul care ne însoțește: călcăm pe urmele lui Ruben Dario, Unanumo și Azorin, scriitori care au înobilat prin creațiile lor secolul XX.
\nTurul Palatului se încheie la fosta... Capelă. Ulterior ea a fost transformată în sală de concerte. Cei îndrăgostiți de muzica lui Chopin au ocazia să participe zilnic la un mini-recital cu o parte dintre cele mai cunoscute valsuri, declarații de dragoste făcute lui George Sand. 15 minute de întoarcere în timp pe aripile muzicii, oferite de... primăria localității.
\nGogoși pufoase și elita călătorilor
\nAtentă la toate detaliile instituția administrativă e preocupată să ofere turiștilor toate serviciile necesare (Centru de informare, marcaje și indicatoare, parcare centrală, spații de promenadă ce strălucesc de curățenie, hartă cu toate atracțiile centrale și zonale, programul evenimentelor artistice etc.) pentru a se bucura la maxim de timpul pe care l-au petrecut la Valldemossa. Criza, ce se simte și aici, a lovit în multe magazine de suveniruri și confecții, restaurante, dar locurile cu specific au supraviețuit. De aceea ar fi păcat să nu vă faceți timp să savurați o cafea și o Coca pe una dintre terasele din vecinătatea mănăstirii. Nu este ce ați putea crede. Coca nu este nici Cola, nici altceva, ci doar un desert pe care localnicii l-au ridicat la rang de specialitate de patiserie. O gogoașă pufoasă făcută din... aluat cu cartofi. Savurați momentul și declarați-vă fericiți. Dai un ban, faci o fotografie, și iată, felicitări, ai intrat în elita călătorilor lumii, aici unde au stat la masă probabil, regi ai Spaniei, împărați ai Japoniei, președinți ai Americii ai Chinei etc. Dar asta n-a fost tot! La reîntoarcere, pentru a mai pleca cu o amintire memorabilă, un stop la un atelier de sticlărie și bijuterii, este la fel de apreciat. Demonstrațiile la cald... te trimit ulterior spre magazinul cu produse finite, unde cromatica vaselor decorative îți reamintește că te afli într-o țară plină de viață, plină de turiști, avizi să ia cu ei o suvenire pentru acasă.

De ce? Pentru că aici se află magazinul-mamă al uneia dintre cele mai mari rețele care creează și vinde decorațiuni de specialitate și articole de Crăciun. Magazinul, un veritabil muzeul inter-activ, poartă numele lui Kathe Wohlfahrt soția lui Wilhelm. În vitrina ce dă în strada principală se află o piesă - o cutie muzicală care a schimbat decisiv istoria satului. Să fi avut aceasta puteri magice? În 1963 Wilhelm și-a petrecut Crăciunul cu soția și cu un coleg de la compania IBM unde lucrau împreună. Acesta avea cu el o cutie muzicală din lemn - creată de Erzgebirge -, în care apăreau magii, Fecioara Maria și pruncul Iisus. Trecând peste detalii, americanul a dorit să o cumpere iar Wilhelm și dat seama că distribuția unor asemenea obiecte ar putea deveni o afacere profitabilă. A înființat o companie pe numele soției sale și, cum afacerea a crescut, mai târziu fiul lor Harald, s-a gândit să creeze la Rothenburg ob der Tauber (denumire dată de fortăreața din inima așezării) un Christmas Wonderland. Un magazin galerie, în care se comercializează și azi cu succes milioane de piese sclipitoare și strălucitoare - jucării din lemn, mai ales cutii muzicale, decorațiuni pentru bradul de Crăciun, păpuși, vedeta fiind cea a Spărgătorului de Nuci, care fac Sărbătorile de iarnă să se umple de magia culorilor. Indiferent de perioada anului, turiștii vin aici să cunoască o parte din misterul împodobirii bradului de Crăciun. Este cel mai mare shop de acest gen din lume. Așa înțelegem de ce anual o așezare, hai să-i spunem orășel cu peste 10.000 de locuitori, primește circa 11 milioane de vizitatori. Toți au contribuit din plin la transformarea unei așezări sărace în una prosperă.\r\n
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5553,5554,5555,5556,5557,5558\"]\r\nCe au de văzut? Cea mai populară destinație turistică din zonă: Käthe Wohlfahrt Christmas Store e organizat pe două etaje. Pare un magazin din turtă dulce. Piesa de rezistență e un brad uriaș. Aflat chiar în centrul celui mai mare raion el măsoară aproape 6 metri înălțime. Pe crengile lui sunt expuse - bună soluția de marketing -, peste 1300 de globuri de diferite culori și dimensiuni. La această oră Käthe Wohlfahrt, care a pornit ca o companie de familie, a devenit lider de piață în domeniul decorațiunilor germane tradiționale de Crăciun nu numai în Germania ci și pe mapamond. Punctul forte al produselor este că sunt proiectate și fabricate la un nivel de înaltă calitate (din lemn, sticlă, staniu etc) de către meșteșugari calificați,aici în atelierele din Rothenburg. Cea mai căutată colecție este ”Limited Edition Dreams”, care se adresează copiilor, dar de o foarte mare apreciere se bucură și seturile miniaturale de picturi pe lemn. Ele pot fi achiziționate și din magazinele proprii ce funcționează la Berlin, Rudeheim, Heidelberg, Nurnberg, Oberammergau etc. Dacă la intrarea principală te întâmpină statuia Spărgătorului de nuci, la ieșire îți reține atenția un brad decorat numai cu bilețele. Este bradul... dorințelor, ne spun gazdele. Vizitatorii, cu mic cu mare, lasă aici un mesaj pentru Moș Crăciun, care după verificări atente, trimite sau nu cadourile cerute. Am dorit și noi câte ceva, dar am fost... săriți anul ăsta. Ori e vorba de criză, ori n-am fost... știți voi... Poate la anul va fi altfel.

\r\nVALLDEMOSSA - Chopin, Valsuri, Sand!
\r\nArmate de turiști contemporani se îndreaptă anual spre faimoasele Insule Baleare. O mare parte se îndreaptă spre Ibiza și Mallorca. Aceasta din urmă își expune - ca o femeie conștientă de farmecele ei -, toate bijuteriile culturale, arhitecturale și naturale.\r\n
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5559,5560,5561,5562,5563,5564\"]\r\n\r\n
Palma de Majorca este promovată, pe bună dreptate ca raiul bicicliștilor, ca destinație de plajă renumită, e cunoscută pentru iahturile luxoase care trag în Marina Port ce pot fi admirate ca la o veritabilă expoziție. Dar și pentru peșterile sale recomandate în toate circuitele. Dar Palma deține și un loc secret, care îi atrage doar pe cunoscători. Unii vin chiar în croazieră pe Mediterană pentru a-l vizita. Printre ei ne-am numărat și noi. Șosele impecabile taie nord-vestul insulei pus în valoare de o zonă montană. La capătul ei atingem Valldemossa. Un sătuc cocoțat elegant pe un versant, ca atâtea alte mii de așezări iberice. Simți aerul curat, puternic, în timp ce urci pe versantul muntelui Tex, aflat la 1064 de metri altitudine. Când ai ajuns în zona de parcare din vecinătatea parcului central ești înclinat ca orice turism să faci rapid un scurt inventar cu obiective de vizitat: șiruri de case, mici restaurante, cafenele, magazine cu confecții și suveniruri și o mănăstire. Asta-i tot? Da, și o poveste de dragoste, care a scandalizat la început localnicii. Mai târziu Valldemossa a devenit celebră tocmai datorită acestui episod... romantic.
\r\nO poveste pentru un sat-muzeu
\r\nAnul 1838. Un celebru cuplu de artiști, el polonez ea franțuzoaică, hotărăște să se ascundă de tumultul vieții în acest loc. Nonconformista e scriitoarea George Sand iar el e compozitorul Frederich Chopin. Ambii decid să-și petreacă un an în spatele pereților fortificați ai mănăstirii de la Valldemossa unde închiriază un spațiu ce aparținea fostei mănăstiri Real Cartuja de Valdldemossa, devenită proprietate privată după secularizarea din 1835. Chilia nr.4 devine astfel după trecerea anilor cea mai frecventată și căutată cameră din mănăstire dar, probabil, și din Palma de Majorca. Aici se află expus pianul Pleyel aparținând lui Chopin. În aer plutesc încă acordurile Polonezei sau Scherzo nr.2, sau balada nr.2, toate compuse aici. Cartea scrisă de George Sand ”Iarna la Mallorca” pune practic insula pe harta turismului. Astfel că milioane de turiști iau cu asalt satul-muzeu.
\r\nHedley și Patrimoniul amintirilor
\r\nTotul arată ca într-un basm căci vizita începe cu Muzeul Mănăstirii Cartuja, ale cărui exponate autentice te poartă prin istoria sa datând de la 1399 până în 1835. Totul s-a conservat: biserica de la 1751 devenită azi muzeu, sălile în care se afla farmacoteca mănăstirii, (descrisă de altfel de George Sand în cartea amintită, devenită și primul ghid turistic al zonei), locul primei imprimerii GUASP de la 1584, cu o impresionantă colecție de xilogravuri, gravuri precum și o colecție de icoane și cărți religioase. Imprimeria, ce a aparținut familiei Guasp, a funcționat fără întrerupere peste trei secole și jumătate, până în 1950. Din 1960 a ieșit la... pensie, devenind după ce a fost recondiționată, piesă de muzeu.
\r\nDesigur, un punct de atracție deosebit este chilia ”Sf. Catalina de Tomas” patroana spirituală a localității. În semn de recunoștință trebuie să știți că toate casele din sat au numărul înscris pe o placă ceramică ce o reproduce pe Sf. Catalina. Atracția irezistibilă este reprezentată de spațiul-muzeu dedicat poveștii celor doi îndrăgostiți. Aici își are sediul o fundație care și-a dedicat munca geniului celor doi romantici. Membrii activează voluntar pentru a pune în valoare patrimoniul amintirilor din... 1931. Spațiile Chiliei nr.4 găzduiesc numeroase documente autentice provenite din colecțiile patrimoniale ale Aurorei Sand, nepoata celebrei scriitoare. Printre ele manuscrisul original al cărții ”O iarnă la Mallorca”, corespondențe cu Chopin, un portret în ulei al scriitoarei realizat de Dubufe, cutia de bijuterii dăruită de compozitorul polonez, fularul acesteia, albumul cu cele 14 acuarele realizate de Maurice Sand, fiul scriitoarei. În ce-l privește pe delicatul Chopin, experții afirmă despre colecția expusă din 1969 la muzeu, concepută inspirat de către muzicologul Arthur Hedley că are o valoare inestimabilă, concurând-o pe cea a Institutului Național Chopin din Varșovia. Pianul așteaptă atingeerea mâinii fine a compozitorului, manuscrisele originalei ale Nocturnei Op 62, nr.2 sunt protejate de o vitrină (atenție, sunteți rugați să nu faceți fotografii în acest spațiu), o meșă din părul lui Chopin trezește nostalgii iar jiletca originală a costumului lui (singura piesă din garderoba sa care s-a păstrat), toate te îndeamnă să visezi la concertul imaginar pe care Chopin îl dă pentru tine.

În mijlocul unui du-te-vino și a unui zumzăit turistic am încercat să privim timpul din alte perspective decât cele de business.\r\n\r\n- De ce nu ai plecat din țară să lucrezi ”acasă” la un brand străin?\r\n\r\n- Au fost mai multe momente în carieră când m-am gândit la această opțiune, care recunosc că mă mai „ incită” din când în când. Inițial acesta era planul meu de carieră, ca după mai mulți ani de hotel în țară, să trec la un nivel internațional. Însă, au apărut 2 elemente noi în cariera mea, care m-au facut să schimb prioritățile. Primul a fost dat de oportunitatea de a lucra alături de 3 oameni remarcabili ai turismului romanesc, ca și consilieri onorifici (pe baza de voluntariat cred că merită precizat) ai Ministrului Turismului în 2012. Al doilea a venit din șansa de a colabora timp de 2 ani cu ASE pe un proiect de management al destinației. Cele 2 momente m-au făcut să privesc cu alți ochi la turismul românesc, la oprtunitățile și necesitățile pe care le avem aici, la șansa de a contribui la renașterea turismului din România. Asta explică în mare parte dorința mea de a rămâne în țară, cred că mai avem multe de făcut aici și cred că pot fi mult mai util aici decât plecând în altă țară.\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5567,5568,5569,5570\"]\r\n\r\n- Ce experiență ți-a adus Continental și cât de provocatoare a fost oferta Ibis?\r\n\r\n- Experiența Continental este unică. Nu poate fi uitată deoarece a contribuit decisiv la formarea mea ca manager în turism. Chiar mă gandesc că dimineața ascultam Rod Stewart cu „first love is the deepest” și tu îmi pui întrebarea asta!!! Am cunoscut oameni deosebiți cărora le mulțumesc toată viața mea pentru șansa acordată, unui puști la vremea aceea, de a conduce un hotel de talia Grand Hotel Continental. Profesional am învățat enorm, a fost nevoie de multă muncă, adaptabilitate, empatie și mai ales răbdare și înțelegere din partea tuturor pentru a ajunge la nivelul actual. IBIS a venit cu alte provocări. Curiozitatea de a vedea cum se lucrează într-un lanț internațional, deschiderea spre lumea întreagă, dorința de a te compara cu cei mai buni și de a învăța de la ei m-a facut să fac acest pas. Sigur, exista și un element de stabilitate, faptul că proprietari erau aceeași iar asta a făcut trecerea mai lină.\r\n\r\n- Accor operează în hotelăria noastră și alte branduri superioare din punct de vedere al stelelor! Novotel, Pulmann (fostul Sofitel) etc. Nu te-a tentat să treci la un nivel superior?\r\n\r\n- Atunci când lucrezi într-un lanț internațional opțiunile de carieră sunt deschise în permanență, deci chiar și astăzi ușa este deschisă. Posibilitatea de a face acest pas există, dar mă tentează numai în măsura în care proiectul este unul provocator din toate punctele de vedere. Datorită faptului că în acest moment doresc să lucrez în țară, iar dezvoltarea grupului Accor la noi abia acum se intensifică, opțiunea de trecere la un alt nivel (superior cum spui tu, dar numai în număr de stele după cum spun eu) se amână deocamdată.\r\n\r\n- Știu că ești un partizan al impulsionării și dezvoltării turismului de evenimente - MICE, mai concentrat exprimat. În afară de mai mulți turiști și mai mulți bani încasați, ce alte avantaje de valoare poate genera acesta pe piața bucureșteană și, în general, în România?\r\n\r\n- Sunt un susținător al formelor de turism care se potrivesc piețelor în care activez. Astfel în București găsesc o oportunitate imensă în poziționarea pe segmentul MICE, dar dacă aș activa în Brașov de exemplu aș privi și piața de leisure cu mare atenție. Dar pe lângă acest interes direct să-i spunem, găsesc foarte eficient segmentul MICE, mai ales în punctul în care ne aflăm noi astăzi din punct de vedere al infrastructurii turistice (număr hoteluri, aeroporturi, autostrăzi etc). Să nu uităm că turiștii de evenimente, pot genera, pot da imbold turismului de leisure pentru că ei își găsesc timp să viziteze și obiective turistice, să dea o fugă până la Peleș sau Mamaia, să duca înapoi imaginea pozitivă și ulterior să revină cu familiile sau prietenii lor. \r\n\r\nMai ales că în ziua de azi putem vorbi de noua tendință BLEISURE adica o îmbinare între business și leisure care caracterizează vizitatorii MICE din ziua de azi. Însă pentru o poziționare bună pe segmentul MICE este nevoie urgentă de un centru multifuncțional modern, Bucureștiul fiind singura capitală din Europa unde acesta lipsește. Iar în incinta lui să poți organiza concerte, congrese, evenimente sportive etc, ceea ce, cu un management eficient, ar duce la o mare creștere a orașului nu numai din punct de vedere turistic. Vă spun aceste lucruri în deplină cunoștință de cauză, grupul din care fac parte find partener în operarea sălii din Paris fosta arenă Paris Bercy care acum se numește Accor Arena. Acolo au loc anual circa 220 evenimente din toate categoriile amintite.\r\n\r\n- S-a investit mult în hoteluri, în construcția și reconstrucția lor? Dar mulți oameni de afaceri au uitat că hotelurile sunt construite pentru oameni iar serviciile sunt furnizate de oameni și nu de roboți. În ultimii ani au apărut scenarii melodramatice privitoare la resursele umane. Este forța de muncă din turism desincronizată față de cererile lansate de mediul de afaceri?\r\n\r\n- Astăzi tema numărul 1 a operatorilor în turism este legată de forța de muncă. Se dezbate în toate conferințele, vorba lui Alexandru Andrieș „se discută probleme, se analizează ce nu merge bine, ce incomodează” dar se tot amână trecerea la acțiuni concrete, la adoptarea de soluții. Ceea ce am început timid anul acesta (mă refer la introducerea sistemului dual pentru meseriile de bază și la colaborări cu școli internaționale de prestigiu la nivel mediu și înalt) va aduce roade în 3-5 ani. Până atunci plătim polițe pentru un sistem educațional prost pe care l-am proliferat ani de zile, cu școli care livrează diplome sau hârtii și nu competențe, cu un sistem de certificare fără acoperire (de la brevetul de turism, la atestatul de chef sau de ghid). Dar cred că privatul va găsi resurse și de data aceasta să regleze problema forței de muncă prin adaptarea (uneori dureroasă) la piață, prin implicarea directă în educația forței de muncă sau ca ultima opțiune-prin importul de personal.\r\n\r\n- Cu vreo două luni în urmă ai afirmat că turiștii străini s-ar putea confrunta în viitorii ani cu o criză a locurilor de cazare din țara noastră, asta în condițiile în care în fiecare an am înregistra o creștere de circa 15-18%. Este realistă această abordare?\r\n\r\n- Acest aspect se simte deja în anumite zone din țarș (Mamaia în sezonul de vară, sau Poiana Brașov în cel de iarnă, Clujul în perioada de concerte, Sibiul la festivalurile sale sau Bucureștiul în sezonul de toamnă, de business). Creșterea cererii pentru România pe care o așteptăm cu toții de foarte mult timp, ar trebui să aducă după sine și un val de investiții în noi unități creîndu-se așa-zisul cerc virtuos de dezvoltare. Sperăm să continuăm această creștere și să înregistrăm venituri mai mari atât prin ocupare cât și prin tarife mai mari. De exemplu pentru la anul preconizez o ridicare a tarifelor de cazare în zonele și perioadele solicitate, hotelierii aplicând cu eficiență din ce în ce mai mare tehnicile de Revenue Management similare celor din airline industry. \r\n\r\n- Ești foarte receptiv la propuneri venite din zona parteneriatelor media, a asociațiilor ori organizațiior care susțin evenimente nonprofit de prestigiu? Nu sunt foarte mulți manageri sau proprietari care se dau în vânt după asemenea colaborări. Este o recomandare ”secretă” a Accor sau e numai o decizie a managementului pe care-l dezvolți?\r\n\r\n- Hotelul de azi nu este doar o unitate adresată turiștilor veniți dn alte localități, ci este un centru social destinat și comunității din care face parte. Nu trebuie să uităm acest lucru și de aceea încercăm prin ceea ce depinde de noi să susținem aceste comunități. Este un crez propriu care însă se mulează perfect cu politica internaționala a Accor. Văzând această compatibilitate cei de la Accor m-au onorat cu responsabilitatea de a conduce direcția de CSR a Accor Hotels Romania lucru cu care mă mândresc în mod deosebit. Și mă bucur să spun că avem multe rezultate notabile din care aș aminti doar plantarea a peste 1,5 milioane copaci în Transilvania pe lângă multe altele. Mi-ar face plăcere să fiți alături de noi în primavară când vom celebra plantarea copacului cu numărul 2 milioane. \r\n\r\n- Am văzut destui tineri studenți în hotelul Ibis - Gara de Nord care în perioada verii în principal, desfășoară activități de practică și voluntariat. După cum m-am documentat, ei provin în principal de la catedre de turism de la ASE, Facultatea Româno-Americană etc? Ce mesaj încerci să le transmiți?\r\n\r\n- Să vină cu drag să lucreze în cea mai frumoasă industrie din lume, industria ospitalității. Să caute experiențe noi, să călătorească, să învețe și să pună pasiune în tot ceea ce fac. Rezultatele vor veni cu siguranță, chiar dacă poate nu atât de repede cum se așteaptă ei. \r\n\r\n- Când ai puțin timp îți iei familia și călătorești. Când dispui de un buget mai mare pentru vacanță călătorești mai... durabil. Știu cum se vede o călătorie prin ochii unui jurnalist de travel, dar cum se vede ea prin ochii unui hotelier cu experiență, ajuns la o vârstă a echilibrului în evaluările sale?\r\n\r\n- În deplasările mele încerc să mă detașez de hotelierul din mine și să mă bucur din plin de locurile noi, de oamenii dragi cu care sunt plecat. Sunt un călător normal, nu am cerințe speciale sau particularități anume provenite din meseria mea.\r\n\r\n- Ce ai văzut și ți-a plăcut în țară și străinătate? Unde n-ai fost și ai dori să ajungi?\r\n\r\n- În țară mă bucur de locurile liniștite, mai izolate puțin iar în străinătate merg cu plăcere în city break-uri. Aș dori să ajung într-o țară din Asia pentru o experiență pe care încă nu am trăit-o.\r\n\r\n- Foarte multe hoteluri moderne au descoperit că... clasic e fantastic, ca să reproduc un slogan cultural. Altfel spun alături de restaurante, baruri, săli de conferință, au biblioteci proprii, sau colțuri cu biblioteci ”flexibile” de genul... ia o Carte, citește, iar în locul ei lasă alta. Putem privi hotelul și ca o instituție de cultură?\r\n\r\n- Poate e prea mult spus instituție de cultură dar un centru al comunității cu siguranță. Și aici intră și partea de cultură, de integrare a comunității, de exemplu inovator, de model de responsabilitate socială.\r\n\r\n- România este promovată în lume de câțiva ani drept ”Grădina Carpaților”, dar conform cifrelor peste 60% din încasările turistice internaționale sunt asigurate de către turismul de evenimente și business! Când crezi, și cum s-ar putea sincroniza politica de publicitate și promovare a instituțiilor administrative de stat care se ocupă și de turism?\r\n\r\n- Politicile administrative ale turismului românesc sunt din păcate cu mult în urma vremurilor pe care le trăim, a potențialului României în turism, și chiar a pașilor făcuți de privat în turism. Cred ca sincronizarea de care vorbești va apărea doar în momentul în care printr-un parteneriat public privat, părțile vor sta la masă și vor aduce turismul la locul și rolul pe care-l merită. Cea mai mare problema a turismului românesc nu sunt banii, ci lipsa unei liste de priorități după care să se orienteze pe termen lung. Sloganul - turismul, prioritate națională -, trebuie să depășească odată stadiul de enunț, și poate o va face noul guvern. Avem o fereastră de oportunitate incredibilă, contextul internațional ne avantajează astfel încât până în 2020 să facem din industria turistică un motor al dezvoltării economiei naționale.\r\n\r\n- Amândoi ne numărăm printre oamenii care au fost premiați la Gala Awards Trend Hospitality. Tu cu titlul Hotelier of the Year 2011 (Hotelierul Anului), eu Lifetime Achivement Reward 2012 (Întreaga Activitate). Amândoi aprindem în felul nostru luminile din camerele turismului. De ce majoritatea oamenilor din branșă sunt și rămân optimiști pe termen lung?\r\n\r\n- Pentru că lucrăm într-o industrie cu oameni frumoși, pentru că ne întâlnim cu partea plăcută a vieții. Pentru că punem pasiune și speranță în ceea ce facem. Pentru că avem motive să fim optimiști atunci când vedem zâmbetele clienților noștri, bucuria pe care ți-o dă un simplu „ mulțumesc” din partea lor, valorând deseori mai mult decât toți banii din lume și făcându-te să vezi partea frumoasă a vieții în fiecare dimineață.\r\n\r\n- Mulțumesc !\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU ','Interviu cu Calin Ile, INTERVIURI nr. 153','','inherit','closed','closed','','5518-revision-v1','','','2017-04-19 21:51:45','2017-04-19 19:51:45','',5518,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2017/04/19/5518-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5572,1,'2017-04-19 21:53:31','2017-04-19 19:53:31','','Ev bibi Adrian Voican','','inherit','open','closed','','ev-bibi-adrian-voican','','','2017-04-19 21:53:31','2017-04-19 19:53:31','',5516,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Ev-bibi-Adrian-Voican.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5573,1,'2017-04-19 21:58:08','2017-04-19 19:58:08','Piața de turism intern a crescut în ultimii cinci ani cu peste 65%, iar 2016 a cunoscut cea mai mare dezvoltare din ultimul deceniu. În acest context Bibi Touring, singurul touroperator specializat pe vacanțe în România, a lansat la Târgul Național de Turism, prima enciclopedie a turismului românesc în limba engleză: „The Big Book of Romanian Travel”.\n\n\n\nEvenimentul a fost susținută de ambasadori ai turismului românesc precum: Octavian Bellu, Grigore Leșe, Ovidiu Lipan Țăndărică etc. The Big Book este un instrument foarte util pentru sistemul de lucru direct între agentul de turism și clienți. Astfel, turiștii străini ori români, îşi vor putea planifica vacanţa, ”oriunde în România”, în opt regiuni turistice consacrate: Delta Dunării, Litoralul Mării Negre, Valea Oltului, Valea Prahovei, Banat-Crişana, Transilvania-Maramureş, Moldova-Bucovina. ”Ofertele au fost integrate într-un concept unic și revoluționar: Evolutiv RO 8.0. Noua platformă găzduiește numeroase noutăți și aduce în prim plan noi valori ale turismului. Este cea mai amplă publicație dedicată turismului românesc. Cele peste 700 de pagini cuprind 1.000 de hoteluri din 100 de staţiuni, pentru 10.000 de vacanţe” - a declarat Adrian Voican, director general Bibi Touring. (M. CONSTANTINESCU)\n\n\nDANIEL JOARZÃ - Competitor la categoria... Cocoș\n
\nRegiunea Catalunia din Spania a gãzduit anul acesta competiþia culinarã pentru premiul Tinerilor Bucãtari Europeni (European Young Chef). Participanþii au venit din 10 þãri ori regiuni si au avut între 18 si 28 de ani. Românul Daniel Joarză a reprezentat Sibiul, oraş deja desemnat Regiunea Gastronomică Europeană a anului 2019.\n\n
Preparatul său de concurs a fost “Cocoş cu şuncă şi fasole”. Competiţia tinerilor bucătari are ca scop aducerea în actualitate a preparatelor tradiţionale, promovarea gusturilor locale din diferite regiuni ale Europei şi atrage atenţia asupra metodelor ecologice, sustenabile, de a produce ingredientele pentru mâncare. Viitori ambasadori ai culturilor culinare din zonele din care provin, tinerii bucătari trebuie să convingă juriul nu numai prin selecţie, prezentare în farfurie şi gust dar şi prin povestea din spatele preparatului. Câştigătorul ediţiei de anul acesta a fost Stamatios Misomikes. Reprezentând Sudul Egeei, Gregia, el a propus un preparat cu 19 ingrediente locale, denumit “Salas, bucuria creaþiei”. Concursul Tinerilor Bucãtari Europeni este un proiect anual al Institutului Internațional de Gastronomie, Culturã, Artã ºi Turism (IGCAT). (SÂNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU)
\nTRAVELBIRD: Capitala este foarte… romantică!
\nSpecialiştii de la TravelBird au analizat anul acesta 85 de destinaţii din lume şi au poziţional Bucureştiul pe locul 20 la capitolul romantism. Companii artistice, şcoli de artă, galerii de artă, muzee, producţie muzicală şi de film dar şi idei noi care au nevoie de finanţare au fost criteriile punctuate în cazul fiecărei destinaţii. TravelBird a vrut să afle cât de atractive sunt şi cât de mult pot inspira eventualul vizitator cele 85 de oraşe, atât vara cât şi iarna. Fiecare locaţie a primit apoi un alt punctaj în funcţie de numărul de căutări cu cuvinte cheie romantice (cină romantică, loc romantic etc.) realizate pe Google, raportate la 100,000 de locuitori. La capitolul inspiraţie, Bucureştiul este pe locul 67, iarna urcă pe 48 iar vara pare mai puţin atractiv, situându-se pe locul 55. Ne aflăm însă pe locul 20 la căutări romantice. Conform studiului cele mai atractive 10 oraşe ale lumii sunt: Miami, Bruges, San Francisco, Bristol, Reykjavik, Santiago de Compostela, Salzburg, Zurich, Heidelberg şi Florenţa. TravelBird este o aplicație prin care utilizatorii îşi pot crea şi rezerva vacanţe. Ea este disponibilă gratuit în 13 ţări europene.\n\n
Aplicația de vânzari YEAY a studiat anul acesta felul în care consumatorii din toată lumea înţeleg şi achiziţionează serviciile pentru tatuaje. Rezultatele s-au adunat într-un index care arată poziția oraşelor în funcţie de preţul pe oră practicat pentru realizarea unui tatuaj şi de numărul de saloane disponibile la 100.000 de locuitori. De asemenea analiştii studiului au urmărit şi felul în care se achiziţionează serviciile de tatuare.
\nRezultatele arată cu Bucureștiul ocupă locul 26 la capitolul cât de uşor putem găsi un salon, cu 0.80 locaţii la 100.000 de locuitori. Costul mediu pe oră al unui serviciu de tatuare este de 45 de euro, ceea ce situează capitala pe locul 12 la categoria preţ. În Indexul Global, cel mai ieftin oraş pentru a-ţi face un tatuaj este Colombo (Sri Lanka), cu 20 de euro pe oră, iar cel mai scump este San Francisco, SUA, cu 250 de euro. În Bucureşti doar 3% dintre serviciile de tatuare sunt achiziţionate de către turişti iar 10% din total sunt cumpărate pentru a fi oferite cadou. (ALEX BARBU)
\nTârgul de Crăciun - București 2016
\nPentru prima dată în istoria Capitalei, Târgul de Crăciun invită oraşul la o expoziţie românească, modernă şi cu gust tradiţional în acelaşi timp, în Piaţa Constituţiei. Amplu, organizat, vesel şi luminos, târgul poate fi vizitat zilnic, în perioada 1-30 decembrie 2016, în intervalul orar 10:00 – 22:00. Spaţiul pieţei a fost împărţit în zonă gastronomică, târg de meșteșuguri, casa lui Moș Crăciun, patinoar şi carusel. Trenulețul pentru cei mici, concertele unor artişti ori formaţii precum Fuego (25 decembrie), Iris (26 decembrie), Oana Sârbu şi Ştefan Hruşcă (27 decembrie) dar și spectacole ansamblurilor tradiționale românești (Fabrica de Folclor, Doiniţa, Căluşarii Slatinii) înfrumuseţează fiecare seară de decembrie.
\nLa cele peste 100 de căsuţe de lemn vizitatorii sunt tentaţi de o mulţime de produse: de la bijuterii hand-made, obiecte sculpate în lemn, poclăzi ori ii tradiţionale, până la felicitări, globuri pentru brad, săpunuri naturale şi perne cu levănţică ori ierburi de câmp. Fumul aromat de la grătare, tăvile generoase cu cârnaţi şi ceaunele cu sarmale îmbie pe oricine iar cozile la vin fiert vorbesc oricărui privitor de pasiunea românilor pentru bucate gustoase şi dorinţa de a petrece cum se cuvine.
\nVizită plăcută şi Sărbători îmbelşugate!
\nCALEA VICTORIEI: Drumul de aur al hotelăriei
\nCel mai fascinant bulevard al Capitalei României, este considerat în același timp și Drumul de aur al hotelurilor din ”Micul Paris”, denumire ce a fost dată Bucureștiului din perioada interbelică. Periodic cercetătorii se apleacă asupra arhivelor și descoperă noutăți despre viața plină de eleganță și parfum a Căii Victoriei. Nicolae Lupu, cadru universitar la ASE și Ion C. Rogojanu, hotelier și bibliofil au tipărit (într-un format care trimite direct la publicația ”Bilete de papagal” editată de Tudor Arghezi), ”Contribuții la istoria ilustrată a turismului dintr-o arhivă de hotelier - A-propos de Calea Victoriei a ”Micului Paris”. Lucrarea constituie un periplu pe axul Calea Victoriei până la Piața Operei, dar și prin zonele adiacente unde se aflau faimoase grădini de vară, terase și cafenele. Călătoria imaginară, care e ajutată de fotografii de epocă, ne poartă prin spațiile Hotelurilor Continental, English, Esplanade Palace, Splendid, High Life, Elysee, Union, Metropol, Luvru, Grand Hotel de Boulevard, Athenee Palace, Majestic, Imperial, Hanu lui Manuc, ori celebrele cofetării - Capșa și Nestor. Unele mai există și azi, altele nu, în timp ce anumite clădiri și-au schimbat destinația. Că exista o viață bogată ne-o exprimă și statistica dintr-un anuar din 1930 care consemna că în București funcționau 85 de hoteluri. Lucrarea a apărut la Editura ASE.\n\n

\nPână la sfârșitul lunii decembrie la Complexul Athenee Palace Hilton din București este deschis primul patinoar din România instalat în incinta unei unități de cazare. El este disponibil atât pentru turiști proprii cât și pentru publicul larg. Patinoarul are o suprafață de 72 de metri pătrați și este deschis de luni până vineri în intervalul 13.00-16.00 iar sămbăta între 12.00 și 18.00. În timpul săptămânii, dupa ora 17.00, patinoarul este disponibil doar pentru rezervări de grupuri și petreceri. Intrarea pentru persoanele ce nu sunt cazate în hotel este 15 lei, preț în care e inclusă și închirierea patinelor. Pentru clienții hotelului patinoarul și echipamentele sunt incluse în pachetul de cazare.
\nTÂRGUL CU BUNĂTĂȚI ȘI DICHISURI…\n\n…a fost din nou la Ploiești. Cea de-a doua ediție din acest an s-a desfășurat înainte de Sărbători în Parcul Toma Soolescu. Gurmanzii au avut în fața ochilor o ofertă tradițională ce le-a stârnit papilele gustative: preparate din carne de porc şi vită – cârnaţi tăiaţi la topor, şuncă ţinută la baiţ în usturoi şi mirodenii, muşchi și ciolan afumate numai bune pentru fasolea la ceaun, brânză și urda de burduf sau cu sare și mărar, specialități din brânză de oaie și vacă din zonă Fundata-Bran, compoturi, siropuri, zacuscă, şerbeturi și dulcețuri, de la Bughea de Jos din Argeş, toate drese cu un strop de palincă curată de Bihor sau cu un vin de la Valea Călugărească. Fructele de la Voineşti, kurtos-ul secuiesc şi ciocolata de casă au îndulcit vizitele participanților - ne-a informat Veronica Constantinescu, organizatorul Târgului.\n\n\nREPATRIOT A FOST LA ROMA
\nO nouă acțiune RePatriot “Repatriere prin antreprenoriat” s-a desfășurat în decembrie la Roma. Aici s-au reunit timp de 3 zile antreprenori români din Italia, Grecia, Spania și Franța. Acțiunea RePatriot a avut în centrul ei o dezbatere găzduită de Accademia di Romania, unde au participat peste 100 întreprinzători și a fost urmărită live de peste 5.400 de persoane din toată lumea. Această conferință, a 8-a organizată în străinătate, a prilejuit opinii și intervenții ale unor oameni de afaceri ca Felix Patrăşcanu – Fondator FAN Curier, Bianca Dăncilă – Fondator GripADs, Magdalena Lupoi – Avocat Partener la Noerr, Lucian Rotar – Director Loginet Conseil, Marius Bostan – Antreprenor și inițiatorul proiectului RePatriot, alături de mai mulți antreprenori din Roma. Ei au prezentat oportunități de afaceri în țară, s-a discutat despre bariere, birocrație, simplificare și corupție.

\n...cursa aeriană București-Chișinău. Zborurile pe această rută vor fi operate cu o aeronava Embraer 190, de 6 ori pe săptămână, cu excepția zilei de sâmbătă. Pe lângă noua cursă către București, compania aeriană națională a Republicii Moldova operează zboruri directe spre încă 25 de destinații precum: Atena, Antalya, Barcelona, Bologna, Bruxelles, Dublin, Londra, Madrid, Milano, Veneția, Sankt-Petersburg etc.
\nPREMIERĂ ÎN ISTORIA SPORTURILOR AERONAUTICE\n\nÎn noiembrie, Aeroclubul României şi Federaţia Aeronautică Română au organizat şi găzduit, la Bucureşti, conferinţa CIVA (Comisia Internaţională pentru Acrobaţie Aeriană) din cadrul Federaţiei Aeronautice Internaţionale. A fost pentru prima dată în istoria sporturilor aeronautice când o conferinţă de acest fel a avut loc în România. Între altele, s-au luat decizii privitoare la modificarea şi completarea regulamentelor specifice competiţilor de acrobaţie cu avioane şi planoare, precum şi la calendarele competiţionale pentru anii următori. Urmare a prezentărilor susţinute de membrii delegaţiei ţării noastre şi a organizării foarte bune a Campionatului European de Acrobaţie Avion care s-a desfăşurat la Deva în anul 2015, România a primit dreptul de a organiza în 2018 Campionatul Mondial de Acrobaţie Avion – clasa Advanced la Strejnic – Ploieşti şi în anul 2019 Campionatul Mondial de Acrobaţie Planor la Deva. Va fi pentru prima dată când în ţara noastră se vor desfăşura competiţii aviatice de asemenea anvergură - ne-a precizat George ROTARU, director general al Aeroclubului României. \nUNUL DIN TREI ROMÂNI...
\n... care caută pe internet informații despre turism o face prin intermediul telefonului mobil, a declarat Ana Sipciu, industry manager Google Romania. Din toate căutările legate de turism făcute în 2015, 33% au fost realizate de pe mobil, dublu față de 2014. Asta include tot: research, informații, locație. Potrivit reprezentantului Google Romania, aceste date arată că turismul este una dintre industriile orientate puternic către segmentul comunicațiilor mobile.
\nBANI PENTRU AMENAJĂRI ECOTURISTICE
\nMinisterul Mediului, Apelor și Padurilor (MMAP), a lansat programul ECO-Turism, ce beneficiază de o finanțare totală de 20 de milioane de lei. Acesta se desfășoară pentru prima dată în România. Sunt finanțate în cadrul acestuia realizări de infrastructuri pentru acces nemotorizat, precum poteci tematice, podețe pentru activități de cicloturism, călărie, caiac-canoe, trasee de aventură, via ferrata (trasee montane prevăzute cu cabluri, scări și poduri metalice), dar și infrastructura aferentă acestora (rasteluri pentru bicicletă, locuri de adăpost și hrană pentru cai, debarcader, refugii alpine etc) și construirea de puncte de informare turistică și protecția mediului/refugii, amenajarea peșterilor, centrelor de vizitare, realizarea și refacerea traseelor de drumeție etc. Reprezentanții Ministerului Mediului au subliniat că finanțarea maximă pentru un proiect poate ajunge la 900.000 de lei. Programul a fost gândit ca o componentă de completare a Strategiei Naționale de dezvoltare a ecoturismului în România, elaborată de Autoritatea Naționala pentru Turism (ANT).

În acest context Bibi Touring, singurul touroperator specializat pe vacanțe în România, a lansat la Târgul Național de Turism, prima enciclopedie a turismului românesc în limba engleză: „The Big Book of Romanian Travel”.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nEvenimentul a fost susținută de ambasadori ai turismului românesc precum: Octavian Bellu, Grigore Leșe, Ovidiu Lipan Țăndărică etc. The Big Book este un instrument foarte util pentru sistemul de lucru direct între agentul de turism și clienți. Astfel, turiștii străini ori români, îşi vor putea planifica vacanţa, ”oriunde în România”, în opt regiuni turistice consacrate: Delta Dunării, Litoralul Mării Negre, Valea Oltului, Valea Prahovei, Banat-Crişana, Transilvania-Maramureş, Moldova-Bucovina. ”Ofertele au fost integrate într-un concept unic și revoluționar: Evolutiv RO 8.0. Noua platformă găzduiește numeroase noutăți și aduce în prim plan noi valori ale turismului. Este cea mai amplă publicație dedicată turismului românesc. Cele peste 700 de pagini cuprind 1.000 de hoteluri din 100 de staţiuni, pentru 10.000 de vacanţe” - a declarat Adrian Voican, director general Bibi Touring. (M. CONSTANTINESCU)\r\n\r\n\r\nDANIEL JOARZÃ - Competitor la categoria... Cocoș\r\n
\r\nRegiunea Catalunia din Spania a gãzduit anul acesta competiþia culinarã pentru premiul Tinerilor Bucãtari Europeni (European Young Chef). Participanþii au venit din 10 þãri ori regiuni si au avut între 18 si 28 de ani. Românul Daniel Joarză a reprezentat Sibiul, oraş deja desemnat Regiunea Gastronomică Europeană a anului 2019.\r\n\r\n
Preparatul său de concurs a fost “Cocoş cu şuncă şi fasole”. Competiţia tinerilor bucătari are ca scop aducerea în actualitate a preparatelor tradiţionale, promovarea gusturilor locale din diferite regiuni ale Europei şi atrage atenţia asupra metodelor ecologice, sustenabile, de a produce ingredientele pentru mâncare. Viitori ambasadori ai culturilor culinare din zonele din care provin, tinerii bucătari trebuie să convingă juriul nu numai prin selecţie, prezentare în farfurie şi gust dar şi prin povestea din spatele preparatului. Câştigătorul ediţiei de anul acesta a fost Stamatios Misomikes. Reprezentând Sudul Egeei, Gregia, el a propus un preparat cu 19 ingrediente locale, denumit “Salas, bucuria creaþiei”. Concursul Tinerilor Bucãtari Europeni este un proiect anual al Institutului Internațional de Gastronomie, Culturã, Artã ºi Turism (IGCAT). (SÂNZIANA CONSTANTINESCU)
\r\nTRAVELBIRD: Capitala este foarte… romantică!
\r\nSpecialiştii de la TravelBird au analizat anul acesta 85 de destinaţii din lume şi au poziţional Bucureştiul pe locul 20 la capitolul romantism. Companii artistice, şcoli de artă, galerii de artă, muzee, producţie muzicală şi de film dar şi idei noi care au nevoie de finanţare au fost criteriile punctuate în cazul fiecărei destinaţii. TravelBird a vrut să afle cât de atractive sunt şi cât de mult pot inspira eventualul vizitator cele 85 de oraşe, atât vara cât şi iarna. Fiecare locaţie a primit apoi un alt punctaj în funcţie de numărul de căutări cu cuvinte cheie romantice (cină romantică, loc romantic etc.) realizate pe Google, raportate la 100,000 de locuitori. La capitolul inspiraţie, Bucureştiul este pe locul 67, iarna urcă pe 48 iar vara pare mai puţin atractiv, situându-se pe locul 55. Ne aflăm însă pe locul 20 la căutări romantice. Conform studiului cele mai atractive 10 oraşe ale lumii sunt: Miami, Bruges, San Francisco, Bristol, Reykjavik, Santiago de Compostela, Salzburg, Zurich, Heidelberg şi Florenţa. TravelBird este o aplicație prin care utilizatorii îşi pot crea şi rezerva vacanţe. Ea este disponibilă gratuit în 13 ţări europene.\r\n\r\n
Aplicația de vânzari YEAY a studiat anul acesta felul în care consumatorii din toată lumea înţeleg şi achiziţionează serviciile pentru tatuaje. Rezultatele s-au adunat într-un index care arată poziția oraşelor în funcţie de preţul pe oră practicat pentru realizarea unui tatuaj şi de numărul de saloane disponibile la 100.000 de locuitori. De asemenea analiştii studiului au urmărit şi felul în care se achiziţionează serviciile de tatuare.
\r\nRezultatele arată cu Bucureștiul ocupă locul 26 la capitolul cât de uşor putem găsi un salon, cu 0.80 locaţii la 100.000 de locuitori. Costul mediu pe oră al unui serviciu de tatuare este de 45 de euro, ceea ce situează capitala pe locul 12 la categoria preţ. În Indexul Global, cel mai ieftin oraş pentru a-ţi face un tatuaj este Colombo (Sri Lanka), cu 20 de euro pe oră, iar cel mai scump este San Francisco, SUA, cu 250 de euro. În Bucureşti doar 3% dintre serviciile de tatuare sunt achiziţionate de către turişti iar 10% din total sunt cumpărate pentru a fi oferite cadou. (ALEX BARBU)
\r\nTârgul de Crăciun - București 2016
\r\nPentru prima dată în istoria Capitalei, Târgul de Crăciun invită oraşul la o expoziţie românească, modernă şi cu gust tradiţional în acelaşi timp, în Piaţa Constituţiei. Amplu, organizat, vesel şi luminos, târgul poate fi vizitat zilnic, în perioada 1-30 decembrie 2016, în intervalul orar 10:00 – 22:00. Spaţiul pieţei a fost împărţit în zonă gastronomică, târg de meșteșuguri, casa lui Moș Crăciun, patinoar şi carusel. Trenulețul pentru cei mici, concertele unor artişti ori formaţii precum Fuego (25 decembrie), Iris (26 decembrie), Oana Sârbu şi Ştefan Hruşcă (27 decembrie) dar și spectacole ansamblurilor tradiționale românești (Fabrica de Folclor, Doiniţa, Căluşarii Slatinii) înfrumuseţează fiecare seară de decembrie.
\r\nLa cele peste 100 de căsuţe de lemn vizitatorii sunt tentaţi de o mulţime de produse: de la bijuterii hand-made, obiecte sculpate în lemn, poclăzi ori ii tradiţionale, până la felicitări, globuri pentru brad, săpunuri naturale şi perne cu levănţică ori ierburi de câmp. Fumul aromat de la grătare, tăvile generoase cu cârnaţi şi ceaunele cu sarmale îmbie pe oricine iar cozile la vin fiert vorbesc oricărui privitor de pasiunea românilor pentru bucate gustoase şi dorinţa de a petrece cum se cuvine.
\r\nVizită plăcută şi Sărbători îmbelşugate!
\r\nCALEA VICTORIEI: Drumul de aur al hotelăriei
\r\nCel mai fascinant bulevard al Capitalei României, este considerat în același timp și Drumul de aur al hotelurilor din ”Micul Paris”, denumire ce a fost dată Bucureștiului din perioada interbelică. Periodic cercetătorii se apleacă asupra arhivelor și descoperă noutăți despre viața plină de eleganță și parfum a Căii Victoriei. Nicolae Lupu, cadru universitar la ASE și Ion C. Rogojanu, hotelier și bibliofil au tipărit (într-un format care trimite direct la publicația ”Bilete de papagal” editată de Tudor Arghezi), ”Contribuții la istoria ilustrată a turismului dintr-o arhivă de hotelier - A-propos de Calea Victoriei a ”Micului Paris”. Lucrarea constituie un periplu pe axul Calea Victoriei până la Piața Operei, dar și prin zonele adiacente unde se aflau faimoase grădini de vară, terase și cafenele. Călătoria imaginară, care e ajutată de fotografii de epocă, ne poartă prin spațiile Hotelurilor Continental, English, Esplanade Palace, Splendid, High Life, Elysee, Union, Metropol, Luvru, Grand Hotel de Boulevard, Athenee Palace, Majestic, Imperial, Hanu lui Manuc, ori celebrele cofetării - Capșa și Nestor. Unele mai există și azi, altele nu, în timp ce anumite clădiri și-au schimbat destinația. Că exista o viață bogată ne-o exprimă și statistica dintr-un anuar din 1930 care consemna că în București funcționau 85 de hoteluri. Lucrarea a apărut la Editura ASE.\r\n\r\n

CALEA VICTORIEI: The golden road of iconic hotels
\nMany researchers and historians picture the 1930 as a golden era of the Capital city of Romania, Bucharest – nicknamed at the time Little Paris. Boosting with palaces made by French architects, parks and churches, the city had a vibrant life, and just about 85 hotels.\n\n
Nicolae Lupu, teacher at the Academy of Economic Studies and Ion C. Rogojanu, retired from the hotel industry and a great collector, have put together a booklet named ”Contributions to the Illustrated history of tourism from a hotel archive ”. It is a walk on Calea Victoriei, the central and historical bulevard of the city, extended to the Opera Square and the surrounding little streets and gardens of the famous street. The collection photographs picture hotels of the time (some of them stil standing today) like Continental, English, Esplanade Palace, Splendid, High Life, Elysee, Union, Metropol, Luvru, Grand Hotel de Boulevard, Athenee Palace, Majestic, Imperial, Hanu lui Manuc, and the historical confectioneries Capșa and Nestor.
\nBucharest Christmas Market 2016
\nThe Capital city of Romania has this year not only some of the most beautiful Christmas decorations in Europe but also a splendid Christmas Market.

CALEA VICTORIEI: The golden road of iconic hotels
\r\nMany researchers and historians picture the 1930 as a golden era of the Capital city of Romania, Bucharest – nicknamed at the time Little Paris. Boosting with palaces made by French architects, parks and churches, the city had a vibrant life, and just about 85 hotels.\r\n\r\n
Nicolae Lupu, teacher at the Academy of Economic Studies and Ion C. Rogojanu, retired from the hotel industry and a great collector, have put together a booklet named ”Contributions to the Illustrated history of tourism from a hotel archive ”. It is a walk on Calea Victoriei, the central and historical bulevard of the city, extended to the Opera Square and the surrounding little streets and gardens of the famous street. The collection photographs picture hotels of the time (some of them stil standing today) like Continental, English, Esplanade Palace, Splendid, High Life, Elysee, Union, Metropol, Luvru, Grand Hotel de Boulevard, Athenee Palace, Majestic, Imperial, Hanu lui Manuc, and the historical confectioneries Capșa and Nestor.
\r\nBucharest Christmas Market 2016
\r\nThe Capital city of Romania has this year not only some of the most beautiful Christmas decorations in Europe but also a splendid Christmas Market. For the first time in the history of its tradition the Bucharest Christmas Market was opened in the very large Constitution Square, in front of one of the most recognizable buildings of the city, the Romanian Parliament.\r\n\r\n
The fair was divided in several sections, showcasing over 100 wooden huts with goodies and gifts, an ice-skating ring, mini-train, carousel, and a generous area dedicated to traditional Romanian cuisine. One can taste specialities such as „sarmale”, „cozonac”, „placinta” and get the blood pumping with some special hot wine or „tuica” brandy. Week-ends, in the evening, the market is liten up also by the music and voices of great Romanian modern and traditional artists and bands alike, such as: Iris, Ştefan Hruşcă, Doiniţa, Căluşarii Slatinii, etc.
\r\nThe fair will be opened daily 10 to 22, untill december 30. Enjoy your visit and Merry Christmas everyone!

”Un pridvor la Raiului - mănăstirea Sihăstria” este o lucrare binecuvântată de Preafericitului Părinte Daniel, Patriarhul Bisericii Ortodoxe Române.

Din munții Sihlei, care adăpostesc peștera Sfintei Cuvioase Teodora, până la vârfurile Toaca și Panaghia ale muntelui Ceahlău, mii de călugări și călugărițe, iubitori de sfințenie și viață veșnică, au sfințit de-a lungul veacurilor, prin rugăciune și nevoință, ținutul Neamțului.(...)

Îngrijirea albumului a revenit Părintelul Petru Bălan care a însoțit reproducerile picturale și fotografice cu cugetări inspirate.

\r\nTHESIGER - O lume tulburătoare
\r\nAșa se întâmplă întotdeauna. Când parcurgem cărți de călătorie scrise în secole trecute ne cuprinde o nostalgie care ne așează percepția pe rafturi sentimentale. Așa este și cu cea scrisă de Wilfred Thesinger (1910-2003), autorul bestsellerului ”Nisipurile arabe”.

Traducerea volumului de călătorie ”Printre Arabii din sudul Irakului”, asigurată de Mihaela Negrilă, a fost lansată anul trecut de editura Polirom din Iași. După cum precizează îngrijitorii ediției cartea reunește în cele peste 250 de pagini, experiențele de viață parcurse în opt ani petrecuți în ținuturile mlăștinoase de la confluența Tigrului cu Eufratul. Thesinger rămâne fascinat de stilul de viață neschimbat de milenii, iar în călătoriile efectuate cu canoea pe la jumătatea secolului trecut se familiarizează cu o arhitectură impresionantă. Dar și cu viața în natură a populațiilor din sudul Irakului, oameni curajoși, ospitalieri și loiali. Cartea poate fi privită și un omagiu adus culturii și ecosisitemului care astăzi aproape că au dispărut.
\r\nBUCOVINA - Little Europe
\r\nRegiunea mai e cunoscută și ca Țara Fagilor. A fost de-a lungul timpului parte din Principatul Moldovei, până în 1774, prin 1849 a fost numită și Ducat al Bucovinei iar între 1867 și 1918 a fost provincie independentă a Austro-Ungariei. După ce au mai scărmănat-o de istorie și rușii ea a ajuns să fie un extraordinar rezervor de multiculturalitate și armonie etnică. Bucovina este un tablou viu al tradițiilor și cine merge în zona Sucevei, revine de-a lungul anilor parcă pentru a se convinge că această lume a tradițiilor există, respiră, trăiește în realitate, nu numai de Paște, Crăciun ori Anul Nou.

Moderată de Gabriela Țigu și de Traian Bădulescu, dezbaterea a pornit de la elemente de bază despre ecologie, responsabilitate față de mediu și față de comunitate, despre turism durabil sub toate formele sale, concepte prezentate într-o altă manieră decât cea academică, de profesorul Puiu Nistoreanu. de editorii și jurnaliștii de turism Marian Constantinescu și Ștefan Baciu care au pus sare și piper pe subiecte inedite. Am aflat despre orașul unde broaștele sunt la mare preț – la figurat, evident – și pentru care simpaticele personaje (desenate, pictate, sculptate sau imortalizate în alte feluri) reprezintă un brand de multe decenii.

Am mai aflat, de asemenea, despre orașul gâștelor, Slovensky Grob, Slovacia. Aici, gâsca a devenit o vedetă brand-local, și își are un binecuvenit monument. Continuând pe acest segment faunistic, în ton cu ecoturismul, am ajuns și la o atracție din România.

\r\nDar să revenim la premianți: studenții care au obținut cele mai multe aprecieri din partea jurnaliștilor de turism, pentru eseuri sau pentru fotografii, și care au fost recompensați în finalul evenimentului. La secțiunea Eseu primele 3 poziții au fost ocupate de: Oana-Diana CRÎŞMARIU (anul III Licență, Facultatea de Business și Turism ASE) - Provocări pentru ecoturismul din România (Locul 1): Liana DUMITRACHE (anul III, Facultatea de Business și Turism ASE) - Ecoturism în Bucureşti (Locul 2): Georgiana Alina DOBRE (anul II Masterat, Universitatea București) - Ecoturismul în Cheile Nerei (Locul 3).\r\n\r\nLa secțiunea Fotografie: Locul 1, Special, a revenit Mădălinei COANDĂ (anul II, Masterat AAT, Facultatea de Business și Turism ASE) – ”Mioară năucă”, Locul 1: Ovidiu BUȚOI (anul II, Masterat AAT, Facultatea de Business și Turism ASE) - ”Mângâierea ultimelor raze de lumină”; iar locul 3 a fost ocupat de Adrian TAMASI-KLAUS (Facultatea de Business și Turism ASE) - cu lucrarea ”Mecanism acaparat”. Menționăm cu plăcere că revista Traveller Magazin a acordat mai multe premii de apreciere pentru aceste realizări profesionale. Mai mult, primii clasați la ambele secțiuni, au fost premiați și cu calitatea de membru-asociat, pentru un an, al FIJET România.\r\nCât de virtual, cât de real!
\r\nDeși încă pe băncile facultății, tinerii au dat dovadă și de maturitate în gândire, dar și de curajul de a-și comunica direct și îndrăzneț opiniile: Ecoturismul poate reprezenta o modalitate de a conecta copiii din generațiile actuale cu viața reală. Evoluția tehnologică este benefică, însă într-o mare măsură ne și afectează, fiind principala cauză pentru care cei mici sunt mai familiarizați cu mediul virtual decât cu cel real. Copiilor din mediul urban nu li se oferă șansa de a se bucura zi de zi de componentele vii ale mediului: plantele și animalele. Ieșirea în natură poate reprezenta o lecție interactivă, interdisciplinară de istorie, geografie și biologie, învățarea experențială fiind mult mai valoroasă decât lectura unor texte cu astfel de conținut. (...) O altă provocare pentru ecoturism o reprezintă practicarea sa într-un mod complet legal. Călătorii care aleg acest tip de turism deseori optează să se cazeze în cabane sau pensiuni care nu sunt înregistrate în circuitul turistic. Tocmai din acest motiv, din punctul de vedere al cazării, contribuția pe care o au la economia națională este practic inexistentă.(....) Toate variantele de a promova practicarea ecoturismului prezentate anterior ar putea fi completate perfect de un bun management al destinațiilor. În această privință ar fi foarte importantă o colaborare între autoritățile locale, pensiuni și meșteșugari. De un bun management al destinațiilor au dat dovadă până acum zone precum Delta Dunării, Țara Dornelor, Colinele Transilvaniei, Mărginimea Sibiului sau Țara Hațegului. (Oana-Diana CRÎŞMARIU - Provocări pentru ecoturismul din România)\r\nCălători prin plămânii naturii
\r\nEcoturismul trebuie să se desfășoare doar în afara orașelor? Cu această întrebare aș dori să încep, deoarece ecoturismul se axează mai mult pe sate, arii naturale și Delta Dunării, luate ca atare. Cum ar fi să încercăm să susținem bunăstarea populației și să apreciem partea aceea mică de natură din București, de examplu?! Poate că încă nu este prea târziu să ne ocupăm de “plămânul” capitalei. O consider o provocare pentru ecoturism din simplul fapt că până acum nu s-au luat prea multe măsuri în vederea conservării naturii, aici în Capitală. Bucureștiul ar putea însemna mai mult decât clădiri și zone modeste de verdeață. De exemplu, Parcul Natural Văcărești din SE-ul Bucureștiului sau “Delta dintre blocuri” este posibil a fi singurul parc natural din lume aflat într-un oraș. Acesta a devenit o arie protejată ca oricare alta aflată în zone mai puțin poluate și atinse de om. Dar, cu toate acestea, consider că Parcul ar putea oferi mai mult decât eventualele activități și programe gândite de Asociația Parc Natural Văcărești (existența unui Centru de Informare pentru vizitatori, plimbări cu bicicleta, alergare, observarea păsărilor, trasee tematice pentru studiu și interpretarea naturii) și anume, activități de plantare a cât mai multor copaci, organizarea de concursuri tematice și amenajarea de zone speciale pentru cunoașterea istoriei Bucureștiului, intrarea putând fi doar în grupuri mici, deoarece s-ar desfășura activități specifice unei arii protejate. (Liana DUMITRACHE - Ecoturism în Bucureşti)
\r\nEcoturismul a apărut în ultimele decenii ale secolului al XX-lea și a fost înțeles sub mai multe aspecte de-a lungul timpului. Acesta reprezintă o călătorie ecologică responsabilă în areale naturale neperturbate, cu scopul de relaxare și apreciere a naturii și a oricărei trăsături culturale, trecută sau prezentă din zonă, care promovează conservarea, având un impact negativ redus și oferă beneficii pentru comunitățile implicate. Cheile Nerei sunt un exemplu de un astfel de obiectiv turistic. Cu un peisaj variat aflat mereu în schimbare, cheile Nerei, sălbatice încă, reprezintă o eliberare din spaţiul antropic poluant şi o conectare cu natura. Sunt considerate în prezent cele mai lungi şi unele dintre cele mai spectaculoase chei din România care surprind prin varietatea formelor carstice, cu 22 kilometri lungime. (…) Comunitatea poate avea beneficii mari de pe urma acestei activități iar nivelul de viață ar crește substanțial în sensul unei dezvoltări consecvente și durabile, care să favorizeze natura și să păstreze o relație om-natură cât mai simplă și mai corectă. (Georgiana Alina DOBRE - Ecoturismul în Cheile Nerei)
\r\nDesigur, provocările pentru ecoturismul din România nu pot fi epuizate aici. Din fericire, sunt mulți adepți și specialiști care știu și militează pentru acest tip de turism al cărui succes e garantat.

În această privință ar fi foarte importantă o colaborare între autoritățile locale, pensiuni și meșteșugari. De un bun management al destinațiilor au dat dovadă până acum zone precum Delta Dunării, Țara Dornelor, Colinele Transilvaniei, Mărginimea Sibiului sau Țara Hațegului. (Oana-Diana CRÎŞMARIU - Provocări pentru ecoturismul din România)\r\nCălători prin plămânii naturii
\r\nEcoturismul trebuie să se desfășoare doar în afara orașelor? Cu această întrebare aș dori să încep, deoarece ecoturismul se axează mai mult pe sate, arii naturale și Delta Dunării, luate ca atare. Cum ar fi să încercăm să susținem bunăstarea populației și să apreciem partea aceea mică de natură din București, de examplu?! Poate că încă nu este prea târziu să ne ocupăm de “plămânul” capitalei. O consider o provocare pentru ecoturism din simplul fapt că până acum nu s-au luat prea multe măsuri în vederea conservării naturii, aici în Capitală. Bucureștiul ar putea însemna mai mult decât clădiri și zone modeste de verdeață. De exemplu, Parcul Natural Văcărești din SE-ul Bucureștiului sau “Delta dintre blocuri” este posibil a fi singurul parc natural din lume aflat într-un oraș. Acesta a devenit o arie protejată ca oricare alta aflată în zone mai puțin poluate și atinse de om. Dar, cu toate acestea, consider că Parcul ar putea oferi mai mult decât eventualele activități și programe gândite de Asociația Parc Natural Văcărești (existența unui Centru de Informare pentru vizitatori, plimbări cu bicicleta, alergare, observarea păsărilor, trasee tematice pentru studiu și interpretarea naturii) și anume, activități de plantare a cât mai multor copaci, organizarea de concursuri tematice și amenajarea de zone speciale pentru cunoașterea istoriei Bucureștiului, intrarea putând fi doar în grupuri mici, deoarece s-ar desfășura activități specifice unei arii protejate. (Liana DUMITRACHE - Ecoturism în Bucureşti)
\r\nEcoturismul a apărut în ultimele decenii ale secolului al XX-lea și a fost înțeles sub mai multe aspecte de-a lungul timpului. Acesta reprezintă o călătorie ecologică responsabilă în areale naturale neperturbate, cu scopul de relaxare și apreciere a naturii și a oricărei trăsături culturale, trecută sau prezentă din zonă, care promovează conservarea, având un impact negativ redus și oferă beneficii pentru comunitățile implicate. Cheile Nerei sunt un exemplu de un astfel de obiectiv turistic. Cu un peisaj variat aflat mereu în schimbare, cheile Nerei, sălbatice încă, reprezintă o eliberare din spaţiul antropic poluant şi o conectare cu natura. Sunt considerate în prezent cele mai lungi şi unele dintre cele mai spectaculoase chei din România care surprind prin varietatea formelor carstice, cu 22 kilometri lungime. (…) Comunitatea poate avea beneficii mari de pe urma acestei activități iar nivelul de viață ar crește substanțial în sensul unei dezvoltări consecvente și durabile, care să favorizeze natura și să păstreze o relație om-natură cât mai simplă și mai corectă. (Georgiana Alina DOBRE - Ecoturismul în Cheile Nerei)
\r\nDesigur, provocările pentru ecoturismul din România nu pot fi epuizate aici. Din fericire, sunt mulți adepți și specialiști care știu și militează pentru acest tip de turism al cărui succes e garantat.

Acum 25 de ani, Muzeul Naţional Cotroceni şi-a deschis porţile în slujba unui ideal: valorificarea istoriei ansamblului medieval şi modern Cotroceni, ilustrarea vieţii marilor personalităţi ale istoriei românilor al căror nume este legat de acest loc: Şerban Cantacuzino, Constantin Brâncoveanu, Barbu Ştirbei, Alexandru Ioan Cuza, Regele Carol I şi Regina Elisabeta, Regele Ferdinand I şi Regina Maria, care de-a lungul timpului au fost artizanii şi creatorii României moderne şi care au dat Cotrocenilor fastul şi strălucirea de odinioară, păstrând un patrimoniu valoros unic.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/EvMuzeul-Cotroceni-1.jpg\")

Acestor vizitatori li se adaugă alte 2.200 de persoane lunar care au frecventat gratuit această atracție (preșcolarii, copiii institutionalizați etc), respectiv participații la evenimentele publice și private, organizate aici .Această dinamică se regăsește și în cifra de afaceri a companiei ce administrează castelul, ce a crescut cu peste 37% față de 2015 ajungând la peste 22,2 milioane de lei. Castelul Bran a deschis în vara anului trecut trei noi magazine, ”Contele”, ”Regina” și ”Rotonda”, în care oferă produse unicat, marcă a Castelului Bran, semnate de designeri renumiti.

\r\nÎN VIITORII 2 ANI
\r\n…Palatul Cantacuzino din Capitală în care se află Muzeul Național „George Enescu” va intra într-un program de restaurare și amenajare. Renovarea va costa circa 10 milioane de euro și urmează să fie finanțată dintr-un împrumul acordat de Banca de Dezvoltare a Consiliului Europei. Guvernul intenționează să aloce aproximativ 45,8 milioane de lei pentru aceste investiții. Interventiile vor fi realizate asupra tuturor clădirilor componente - Palatul Cantacuzino, Casa Memorială George Enescu și o anexă. În urma acestor lucrări va fi redat vieții artistice un ansamblu important, în care se vor desfășura activități socio-culturale de anvergură.
\r\nBUGETUL ALOCAT PENTRU
\r\n... acest an nou-înființatului minister al Turismului se ridică la o sumă totală de 80 milioane de lei (circa 18 milioane de euro). Ministrul Mircea Dobre, a precizat că, din această sumă, banii destinați promovării turismului românesc în țară și străinătate vor fi 5 milioane de euro. Anul trecut a fost acordat pentru pentru aceleași activități un total de 3 milioane de euro. Mulți turoperatori sunt de părere că în actualul context sumele respective ajung pentru salarii respectiv pentru câteva participări internaționale. Bugetul alocat pentru promovare ar trebui să fie mult mai mare dacă România își dorește să devină o destinație tot mai căutată de străini.

\r\nAproape 170.000 de români au cheltuit peste 40 milioane de euro pe vacanțe de Revelion în țară și străinătate. Dintre aceștia circa 155.000 și-au petrecut Revelionul în stațiunile din țară, în creştere cu 7% faţă de anul trecut, cheltuind aproximativ 155 de milioane de lei, cu 8% mai mult comparativ cu anul precedent.
\r\nÎn străinătate au călătorit, prin intermediul agențiilor de turism, pe parcursul sărbătorilor de iarnă aproape 10.000 de români, în creştere cu 22%. Aceştia au cheltuit în afara țării, doar pentru servicii turistice, peste 6 milioane euro, sumă cu 23% mai mare comparativ cu perioada precedentă a anul anterior. În ceea ce privește opțiunile pentru destinațiile interne de Revelion (cu un total de 158.100 de locuri cumpărate) ele au fost concentrate pe stațiunile montane, București și alte orașe respectiv, stațiunile balneare și turism rural.
\r\nÎn ceea ce privește destinațiile străine cei mai mulți dintre români au ales în perioada sărbătorilor de iarnă, stațiuni montane din Austria, Franța, Italia, Slovenia și Bulgaria - precizează surse ale Federației Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR).

\r\nCastelul Bran a fost vizitat în 2016 de 798.298 persoane, plătitori de bilete, în creștere cu circa 27%, față de anul anterior. Acestor vizitatori li se adaugă alte 2.200 de persoane lunar care au frecventat gratuit această atracție (preșcolarii, copiii institutionalizați etc), respectiv participații la evenimentele publice și private, organizate aici .Această dinamică se regăsește și în cifra de afaceri a companiei ce administrează castelul, ce a crescut cu peste 37% față de 2015 ajungând la peste 22,2 milioane de lei. Castelul Bran a deschis în vara anului trecut trei noi magazine, ”Contele”, ”Regina” și ”Rotonda”, în care oferă produse unicat, marcă a Castelului Bran, semnate de designeri renumiti.
\r\nÎn acest an, vor fi continuate proiectele culturale, o parte dintre acestea intrând în tradiția Castelului Bran, dar și investitiile pentru conservarea monumentului istoric. Proiecte sunt legate în mare parte de marcarea în luna noiembrie a 640 de ani de la prima atestare documentară a obiectivului istoric - a declarat Bogdana Balmuș, directorul de PR al castelului.
\r\nÎN VIITORII 2 ANI
\r\n…Palatul Cantacuzino din Capitală în care se află Muzeul Național „George Enescu” va intra într-un program de restaurare și amenajare. Renovarea va costa circa 10 milioane de euro și urmează să fie finanțată dintr-un împrumul acordat de Banca de Dezvoltare a Consiliului Europei. Guvernul intenționează să aloce aproximativ 45,8 milioane de lei pentru aceste investiții. Interventiile vor fi realizate asupra tuturor clădirilor componente - Palatul Cantacuzino, Casa Memorială George Enescu și o anexă. În urma acestor lucrări va fi redat vieții artistice un ansamblu important, în care se vor desfășura activități socio-culturale de anvergură.
\r\nBUGETUL ALOCAT PENTRU
\r\n... acest an nou-înființatului minister al Turismului se ridică la o sumă totală de 80 milioane de lei (circa 18 milioane de euro). Ministrul Mircea Dobre, a precizat că, din această sumă, banii destinați promovării turismului românesc în țară și străinătate vor fi 5 milioane de euro. Anul trecut a fost acordat pentru pentru aceleași activități un total de 3 milioane de euro. Mulți turoperatori sunt de părere că în actualul context sumele respective ajung pentru salarii respectiv pentru câteva participări internaționale. Bugetul alocat pentru promovare ar trebui să fie mult mai mare dacă România își dorește să devină o destinație tot mai căutată de străini.
\r\n\r\nLA PETRECERI TOT ÎNAINTE
\r\nAproape 170.000 de români au cheltuit peste 40 milioane de euro pe vacanțe de Revelion în țară și străinătate. Dintre aceștia circa 155.000 și-au petrecut Revelionul în stațiunile din țară, în creştere cu 7% faţă de anul trecut, cheltuind aproximativ 155 de milioane de lei, cu 8% mai mult comparativ cu anul precedent.
\r\nÎn străinătate au călătorit, prin intermediul agențiilor de turism, pe parcursul sărbătorilor de iarnă aproape 10.000 de români, în creştere cu 22%. Aceştia au cheltuit în afara țării, doar pentru servicii turistice, peste 6 milioane euro, sumă cu 23% mai mare comparativ cu perioada precedentă a anul anterior. În ceea ce privește opțiunile pentru destinațiile interne de Revelion (cu un total de 158.100 de locuri cumpărate) ele au fost concentrate pe stațiunile montane, București și alte orașe respectiv, stațiunile balneare și turism rural.
\r\nÎn ceea ce privește destinațiile străine cei mai mulți dintre români au ales în perioada sărbătorilor de iarnă, stațiuni montane din Austria, Franța, Italia, Slovenia și Bulgaria - precizează surse ale Federației Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR). \r\n\r\n \r\nAIR BERLIN ȘI ALITALIA SE RETRAG
\r\nDin luna februarie a acestui an două companii aeriene străine și-au încetat zborurile din România. Alitalia, care se confruntă cu o serioasă criză de lichidități a anunțată că renunță la singura cursă pe care o mai opera pe ruta București-Roma, asta după ce anul trecut a renunțat la zborurile de pe Otopeni spre Milano Linate. Și transportatorul german Air Berlin a anunțat o decizie similară. Potrivit surselor disponibile, Etihad, compania din Emiratele Arabe Unite care deține acțiuni atât la Air Berlin, cât și la Alitalia, și-a propus să restructureze cursele care nu sunt foarte profitabile.
\r\nINDIA A PROPUS CA YOGA
\r\n… să fie înscrisă pe lista Patrimoniului Cultural intangibil al umanității al UNESCO. Solicitarea a fost făcută la Addis Abeba (Etiopia), la cea de-a 11-a sesiune a Comitetului Guvernamental pentru salvarea valorilor culturale intangibile pe plan mondial. Propunerea aparține prim-ministrului Narenda Modi, care a susținut încă din 2014 declararea datei de 21 iunie, drept Ziua Mondială a Yoga. Indienii sunt foarte activi pe acest segment unde au înscris deja pe lista UNESCO 13 valori culturale intangibile printre care dansul Chhau (2010), Ritualul muzical budist de la Ladakh (2012), Sankirtana, spectacol muzical și de dans din Manipur (2013) etc.

După ani de tăcere, Federația Industriei Hoteliere din România (FIHR), cîndva cea mai activă și apreciată organizație a industriei turistice autohtone, s-a hotărât să revină în piața comunicării, printr-o conferință de presă. O nouă echipă, dinamică și ambițioasă a reușit să restarteze interesul pentru activitățile profesionale ale breslei. Călin Ile a subliniat la hotelul Hilton -Athenee Palace din Capitală că ”asociația reunește la această oră 108 hoteluri cu un total de circa 11.250 de camere. Scopul nostru este ca în 2017 să dublăm numărul lor. Astfel vom avea mai mulți actori implicați în proiectele pe care le vom derula. Ele vizează în principal dezvoltarea sistemului educațional și de formare a forței de muncă în turism, cu punerea unui accent mult mai mare pe domeniul practicii profesionale”. Aici au fost subliniate bunele relații cu mediul profesional și dezbaterile susținute la ASE, universitățile Babeș Bolyai din Cluj, din Brașov, Româno-Americană, Institutul Francez etc. ”În același timp vom continua să milităm pentru susținerea unui climat de etică și fair-play în industria ospitalității dar și pentru o activizare a relațiilor noastre cu organismele internaționale din turism” a mai precizat Ile.

Zona este locuită de „acadieni”, urmaşii vorbitorilor de limbă franceză, aduşi din Noua Scoţie, Canada, de către britanici pe la 1794, pentru a popula mlaştinile sudului. Oameni muncitori, buni agricultori, aceştia au venit cu tradiţiile specifice cu inflexiunie mediteraneene, au continuat a vorbi franceza maternă (în ciuda interzicerii ei în 1916), şi au creat cultura „cajun”. Acadienii au rezistat presiunii economice la care au fost supuşi (petrolul din zonă fiind cauza) şi au reuşit să introducă în şcoli, în 1960, învăţământul în franceză. \r\n\r\nArhaic şi cu şarm\r\n\r\nOraşul Lafayette este inima culturală cajun. Iniţial el s-a numit Vermillonville iar timpurile de atunci,... les bons temps, sunt evocate într-un impresionant muzeu. Compus precum un muzeu al satului, aici te întâmpină case, biserici, şcoli, din primii ani ai coloniştilor acadieni (1790-1890). Vizita este interactivă căci peste tot întâlneşti voluntari costumaţi corespunzător epocii: ei îţi prezintă locul în care te afli, dau explicaţii despre meşteşuguri şi ţi se adresează într-o franceză arhaică. Parcul natural în care se află muzeul se întinde pe 23 de acri, sporind farmecul incursiunii în trecut. Pasul următor îl facem către malurile râului Mississippi. Mixul între lumea cajun, populaţiile şi tradiţiile de origine africană „creole” şi istoria care a amestecat culorile sudului, a creat în Louisiana de astăzi, un set de atracţii... magnetice: plantaţiile, cu spectaculoasele lor conace şi poveşti. Dintre cele zece care se află în apropiere de New Orleans, trei ne-au impresionat în mod deosebit.\r\n\r\nScene de film pe plantaţie\r\n\r\nSan Francisco Plantation este considerată cea mai strălucitoare moştenire arhitecturală „a la belle epoque” de pe malurile fluviului. Conacul a fost construit în 1856 de către Edmond Bozonier Marmillion, un întreprinzător local. Turiştii sunt atraşi, chiar de la intrarea pe proprietate, de fântânile făcute din căldări vechi de fontă. Urmând cărarea pietruită, după perdeaua de copaci, silueta conacului surprinde prin... originalitate. Construcţia îmbină elementele arhitecturii locale cu cele ale stilului gotic şi bavarez (căci nora proprietarului era de origine germană). Cele două turnuri de apă care flanchează conacul încadrează toată simfonia de albastru tucoaz, alb şi galben pentru o fotografie perfectă. Încăperile adăpostesc mobilierul original, cu tavanele splendid pictate de către Dominique Canova (vărul celebrului sculptor italian) iar la fiecare etaj și în fiecare cameră eşti primit de o frumoasă a sudului (ghid în muzeu), costumată adecvat, încât ai impresia că eşti pe un platou de filmare. După turul ghidat de 45 de minute, prin spații care de care mai luxoase ori rafinate, ai surpriza să descoperi, pierdute în parcul conacului, casele de lemn ale sclavilor. Contrastul este uriaş. Listele de inventariere a sclavilor (cu vârstă, talie, educaţie şi mai ales preţ per capita) îţi pun un nod în gât. Dar este o realitate istorică pe care contemporanii şi-o asumă şi o prezintă fără tente de roz! Tot aşa cum şi-a asumat viaţa şi tânăra bavareză de 23 de ani Loiuse Von Seybald. Nora proprietarului, venind în vizită a rămas legată de glie. În noaptea sosirii sale îi moare socrul iar ea rămâne... ţintuită în peisaj timp de 23 de ani.

Între timp, împreună cu soţul ei, trece prin ororile Războiului Unionist şi mai ales reuşeşte să imprime eleganţă şi stil căminului său. În prezent locul este gestionat de o fundaţie iar poveştile sale sunt puse în valoare de managerul Kim Fontenot. Încă un detaliu: denumirea originală era... Sans Frasquin, în traducere „fără un ban în buzunare”, devenit prin distorsiune San Francisco.

De la distanţă, privită dinspre râu, faţada segmentată de coloane albe, dă un aer de sobrietate proprietăţii. Spiritul solar de la San Francisco este înlocuit la Destrehan de o undă de tristeţe şi melancolie. Încercând un periplu al muzeului, din nou cu ghizi costumaţi în haine de epocă, l-am descoperit într-o cameră pe Thomas Jefferson semnând o scrisoare şi am parcurs o expoziţie documentară despre revolta sclavilor de la 1811, care cereau mai multe drepturi. Trebuie să ştiţi că în această regiune nu toţi negri erau sclavi. Mulţi dintre ei, meşteşugari de excepţie, erau liber profesionişti. De altfel reşedinţa a fost construită sub coordonarea lui Charles Pacquet, un meseriaş de culoare, om liber în acele vremuri. Multe plantaţii din Louisiana trăiau din culturile de zahăr, orez; Destrehan a fost însă renumită în epocă pentru producerea vopselei „indigo”. Încăperile se deschid cu ferestre până în podele către o verandă amplă. Vara se creează un uşor curent care mai mişcă aerul fierbinte al sudului, iar de aici privirea este atrasă de stejarii enormi, cu crengi întortocheate, uniţi parcă de valuri de muşchi spaniol, care atârnă în voie.\r\n\r\nPasiune de milionar\r\n\r\nJefferson Island ar putea fi, după denumire, o insulă. E însă un domeniu fabulos, pe marginea unui lac, a cărei vizită poate dura o zi întreagă. Încă de la intrare ne surprind tufele zvelte de bambus, o apariţie neaşteptată în peisajul deseori arid al sudului. Ghidul nostru se prezintă simplu –Mike, şi ne atrage cu entuziasm către punctul de începere al turului. Umiditatea din aer şi cele aproape 40 de grade la umbră îl fac să transpire abundent. Cămaşa lui e una cu lacul, obrajii roşii, iar lumina pe care o are pe chip povestind vizitatorilor despre grădinile Rip Van Winkle, e semnul unei mari pasiuni. Stejarii cu care ne-am obişnuit deja la plantaţiile vizitate par aici fabuloşi, iar de pe marginea lacului începe un drum romantic, printre porţi originale de temple orientale, bambus, fântâni cu lotuşi. Mike ne spune că a început să lucreze aici în 1969, ca tânăr horticultor. A fost şi este pasionat de arhitectură peisagistică iar vizita în Bali şi- a pus amprenta pe această parte a grădinii. Iar apoi, în timp, familia i-a sprijinit planurile din ce în ce mai îndrăznețe și ample.\r\n\r\nAleea trece pe lângă o şcoală (în care învăţau copii angajaţilor de pe domeniu) şi suind un deal plin de iarbă înaltă, mătăsoasă, ajungem la o vilă cu verandă albă şi balansoare de lemn. Mike are cheile, deschide uşa, câinele său se întinde pe podelele ceruite. „Casa a aparţinut actorului Joseph Jefferson – unul dintre cei mai cunoscuţi comedianţi americani ai secolului al 19-lea. Am încercat să păstrăm cât mai mult din interiorul original şi suntem foarte fericiţi că este pe lista Registrului Naţional al Patrimoniului Istoric american.” Mike ne plimbă prin camere, atinge obiectele şi, atipic, putem face la fel – de parcă am fi la un cunoscut acasă. Am mai sta pe terasă, să privim grădinile, păunii care îşi plimbă liniştiţi cozile; prin copaci se ascund păsări multicolore (au 12 specii tropicale care cuibăresc aici), ratoni... Gazda ne îmbie însă către cafeneaua-restaurant a proprietăţii, spunându-ne că soţia sa a gătit celebra sa supă-cremă de creveţi şi nu vrea să o facă să aştepte. În restaurant, localnicii veniţi în vizită îl salută pe Mike, chelnerii se mişcă rapid, cu zâmbetul pe buze. Acum, la capătul vizitei, ne dăm şi noi seama că am fost... ghidați, pe proprietatea sa, de Michael Richard, unul dintre milionarii Louisianei de astăzi. Cerul sudului e fierbinte, supa de creveţi-delicioasă, localnicii mănâncă, râd...

Încercând un periplu al muzeului, din nou cu ghizi costumaţi în haine de epocă, l-am descoperit într-o cameră pe Thomas Jefferson semnând o scrisoare şi am parcurs o expoziţie documentară despre revolta sclavilor de la 1811, care cereau mai multe drepturi. Trebuie să ştiţi că în această regiune nu toţi negri erau sclavi. Mulţi dintre ei, meşteşugari de excepţie, erau liber profesionişti. De altfel reşedinţa a fost construită sub coordonarea lui Charles Pacquet, un meseriaş de culoare, om liber în acele vremuri. Multe plantaţii din Louisiana trăiau din culturile de zahăr, orez; Destrehan a fost însă renumită în epocă pentru producerea vopselei „indigo”. Încăperile se deschid cu ferestre până în podele către o verandă amplă. Vara se creează un uşor curent care mai mişcă aerul fierbinte al sudului, iar de aici privirea este atrasă de stejarii enormi, cu crengi întortocheate, uniţi parcă de valuri de muşchi spaniol, care atârnă în voie.\r\n\r\nPasiune de milionar\r\n\r\nJefferson Island ar putea fi, după denumire, o insulă. E însă un domeniu fabulos, pe marginea unui lac, a cărei vizită poate dura o zi întreagă. Încă de la intrare ne surprind tufele zvelte de bambus, o apariţie neaşteptată în peisajul deseori arid al sudului. Ghidul nostru se prezintă simplu –Mike, şi ne atrage cu entuziasm către punctul de începere al turului. Umiditatea din aer şi cele aproape 40 de grade la umbră îl fac să transpire abundent. Cămaşa lui e una cu lacul, obrajii roşii, iar lumina pe care o are pe chip povestind vizitatorilor despre grădinile Rip Van Winkle, e semnul unei mari pasiuni. Stejarii cu care ne-am obişnuit deja la plantaţiile vizitate par aici fabuloşi, iar de pe marginea lacului începe un drum romantic, printre porţi originale de temple orientale, bambus, fântâni cu lotuşi. Mike ne spune că a început să lucreze aici în 1969, ca tânăr horticultor. A fost şi este pasionat de arhitectură peisagistică iar vizita în Bali şi- a pus amprenta pe această parte a grădinii. Iar apoi, în timp, familia i-a sprijinit planurile din ce în ce mai îndrăznețe și ample.\r\n\r\nAleea trece pe lângă o şcoală (în care învăţau copii angajaţilor de pe domeniu) şi suind un deal plin de iarbă înaltă, mătăsoasă, ajungem la o vilă cu verandă albă şi balansoare de lemn. Mike are cheile, deschide uşa, câinele său se întinde pe podelele ceruite. „Casa a aparţinut actorului Joseph Jefferson – unul dintre cei mai cunoscuţi comedianţi americani ai secolului al 19-lea. Am încercat să păstrăm cât mai mult din interiorul original şi suntem foarte fericiţi că este pe lista Registrului Naţional al Patrimoniului Istoric american.” Mike ne plimbă prin camere, atinge obiectele şi, atipic, putem face la fel – de parcă am fi la un cunoscut acasă. Am mai sta pe terasă, să privim grădinile, păunii care îşi plimbă liniştiţi cozile; prin copaci se ascund păsări multicolore (au 12 specii tropicale care cuibăresc aici), ratoni... Gazda ne îmbie însă către cafeneaua-restaurant a proprietăţii, spunându-ne că soţia sa a gătit celebra sa supă-cremă de creveţi şi nu vrea să o facă să aştepte. În restaurant, localnicii veniţi în vizită îl salută pe Mike, chelnerii se mişcă rapid, cu zâmbetul pe buze. Acum, la capătul vizitei, ne dăm şi noi seama că am fost... ghidați, pe proprietatea sa, de Michael Richard, unul dintre milionarii Louisianei de astăzi. Cerul sudului e fierbinte, supa de creveţi-delicioasă, localnicii mănâncă, râd...

\r\n\r\nPotrivit unui studiu efectuat de Christian Tour, cea mai mare agenție de turism din România, numărul sejururilor pentru vara 2017, achiziționate încă de la începutul lunii noiembrie, a crescut în medie cu 55%. Cea mai spectaculoasă creștere, de până la 75%, se înregistrează pentru stațiunile de pe litoralul turcesc (Antalya, dar și Coasta Egee). Turcia se află și în topul destinaţiilor cu cele mai mari discounturi pentru pachetele achiziționate până la jumătatea lunii decembrie. Favorită a publicului român și în 2017 rămâne Grecia. \r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_5689\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"1024\"]![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/Christian-Turcia.jpg\")

De aceleași discounturi se bucură și pachetele în Corfu, Thassos, Halkidiki și Lefkada, dar și litoralul bulgăresc al Mării Negre. Au beneficiat de reduceri de 30-40% și cei care au achiziționat vacanțe în Kusadasi, Creta, Rhodos și Santorini, dar și pe litoralul românesc. \r\n\r\nInteresul turiștilor pentru Santorini a crescut cu 45%, pentru Zakynthos cu 43%, pentru Mallorca cu 38% , iar pentru litoralul românesc cu 35%. Marius Pandel, CEO Christian Tour apreciază că \"Interesul crescut pentru pachetele Early Booking se explică și prin faptul că turiștii își doresc să aleagă hoteluri de rang superior și știu că acestea, de obicei, devin sold out cu mult timp înainte de plecare\". \r\nCÂMPINA: Țară, țară vrem incoming !
\r\nExportul turistic nu stă deloc pe roze. Din cele circa 2600 de agenții de turism care ar activa legal în România cam 50 sunt specializate sau sunt tangente cu acest segment.

\r\nLa rândul său Issam Abdul Rahim Kazim, Chief Executive Officer al aceleași organizații, a subliniat că anual, Dubai atrage aproximativ 16 milioane de vizitatori din întreaga lume, iar în ce privește România, se dorește ca aceasta să devină destinație de Top 3.
\r\nDubai a fost clasificat de catre MasterCard drept al 4-lea cel mai vizitat oraș din lume, iar de sistemele Booking.com al 3-lea cel mai “rezervat” oraș, respectiv Expedia, al 7-lea din punct De vedere al numărului de rezervări. Dubai este unul dintre primele 20 cele mai sigure metropole din lume, recent primind și calificativul de cel mai cosmopolit – cu mai mult de 200 de naționalități care îl vizitează și care trăiesc aici.

În sezonul rece, reducerile au ajuns chiar și până la 50% pentru unele destinații. \r\n\r\nPotrivit unui studiu efectuat de Christian Tour, cea mai mare agenție de turism din România, numărul sejururilor pentru vara 2017, achiziționate încă de la începutul lunii noiembrie, a crescut în medie cu 55%. Cea mai spectaculoasă creștere, de până la 75%, se înregistrează pentru stațiunile de pe litoralul turcesc (Antalya, dar și Coasta Egee). Turcia se află și în topul destinaţiilor cu cele mai mari discounturi pentru pachetele achiziționate până la jumătatea lunii decembrie. Favorită a publicului român și în 2017 rămâne Grecia. \r\n\r\nRezervările pentru insulele Zakynthos sau Santorini au crescut cu 45%, respectiv 43%, pe fondul unor prețuri mai mici cu până la 50%, prin programele Early Booking. De aceleași discounturi se bucură și pachetele în Corfu, Thassos, Halkidiki și Lefkada, dar și litoralul bulgăresc al Mării Negre. Au beneficiat de reduceri de 30-40% și cei care au achiziționat vacanțe în Kusadasi, Creta, Rhodos și Santorini, dar și pe litoralul românesc. \r\n\r\nInteresul turiștilor pentru Santorini a crescut cu 45%, pentru Zakynthos cu 43%, pentru Mallorca cu 38% , iar pentru litoralul românesc cu 35%. Marius Pandel, CEO Christian Tour apreciază că \"Interesul crescut pentru pachetele Early Booking se explică și prin faptul că turiștii își doresc să aleagă hoteluri de rang superior și știu că acestea, de obicei, devin sold out cu mult timp înainte de plecare\". \r\nCÂMPINA: Țară, țară vrem incoming !
\r\nExportul turistic nu stă deloc pe roze. Din cele circa 2600 de agenții de turism care ar activa legal în România cam 50 sunt specializate sau sunt tangente cu acest segment. Chiar și în aceste condiții ostile mediului de afaceri din zona turistică numărul turiștilor străini a cunoscut o creștere în ultimii ani. Potențialul este foarte mare.

Semnalul e optimist. N-am mai auzit de mult despre România ca destinație ”externă” de top, ca magnet pentru circulația turistică internă. Iată, se întâmplă și minuni. Ceea ce în urmă cu vreo 10-15 ani provoca unora grețuri și disconfort, a devenit peste noapte un spațiu atractiv. Schimbarea la față a turismului autohton nu se datorează unor campanii de promovare făcute la nivel de destinație națională ci în principal investitorilor din turism care au riscat. Amprenta optimistă e susținută de cel puțin două proiecții. Conform surselor ANAT anul trecut a început să se simtă efectul voucherelor de vacanță care au atins o valoare de circa 10 milioane de euro. În total au fost acordate 1,1 milioane de tichete, potențialul numeric fiind de peste 4 ori mai mare. Acest aspect va dinamiza piața cererii, voucherele fiind numai în vacanțe interne.

\nAșa se întâmplă întotdeauna. Când parcurgem cărți de călătorie scrise în secole trecute ne cuprinde o nostalgie care ne așează percepția pe rafturi sentimentale. Așa este și cu cea scrisă de Wilfred Thesinger (1910-2003), autorul bestsellerului ”Nisipurile arabe”. Traducerea volumului de călătorie ”Printre Arabii din sudul Irakului”, asigurată de Mihaela Negrilă, a fost lansată anul trecut de editura Polirom din Iași. După cum precizează îngrijitorii ediției cartea reunește în cele peste 250 de pagini, experiențele de viață parcurse în opt ani petrecuți în ținuturile mlăștinoase de la confluența Tigrului cu Eufratul. Thesinger rămâne fascinat de stilul de viață neschimbat de milenii, iar în călătoriile efectuate cu canoea pe la jumătatea secolului trecut se familiarizează cu o arhitectură impresionantă. Dar și cu viața în natură a populațiilor din sudul Irakului, oameni curajoși, ospitalieri și loiali. Cartea poate fi privită și un omagiu adus culturii și ecosisitemului care astăzi aproape că au dispărut.

\nRegiunea mai e cunoscută și ca Țara Fagilor. A fost de-a lungul timpului parte din Principatul Moldovei, până în 1774, prin 1849 a fost numită și Ducat al Bucovinei iar între 1867 și 1918 a fost provincie independentă a Austro-Ungariei. După ce au mai scărmănat-o de istorie și rușii ea a ajuns să fie un extraordinar rezervor de multiculturalitate și armonie etnică. Bucovina este un tablou viu al tradițiilor și cine merge în zona Sucevei, revine de-a lungul anilor parcă pentru a se convinge că această lume a tradițiilor există, respiră, trăiește în realitate, nu numai de Paște, Crăciun ori Anul Nou.

Împreună au patronat un concurs dedicat studenților, pe tema Provocări pentru ecoturismul din România, cu două secțiuni: fotografie și eseu.\n\n\n\n\nBroaște și gâște - branduri inedite
\nCompetiția a fost consolidată de un workshop organizat la Romexpo ce nu a avut doar scopul premierii, ci și al învățării despre cum aplică alții acest concept, simplu și concret. Moderată de Gabriela Țigu și de Traian Bădulescu, dezbaterea a pornit de la elemente de bază despre ecologie, responsabilitate față de mediu și față de comunitate, despre turism durabil sub toate formele sale, concepte prezentate într-o altă manieră decât cea academică, de profesorul Puiu Nistoreanu. de editorii și jurnaliștii de turism Marian Constantinescu și Ștefan Baciu care au pus sare și piper pe subiecte inedite. Am aflat despre orașul unde broaștele sunt la mare preț – la figurat, evident – și pentru care simpaticele personaje (desenate, pictate, sculptate sau imortalizate în alte feluri) reprezintă un brand de multe decenii. Este vorba despre Frog City (cum altfel s-ar fi putut numi !), statul Louisiana, SUA. Aici, un habitat natural a devenit un element esențial de marketing al destinației. Am mai aflat, de asemenea, despre orașul gâștelor, Slovensky Grob, Slovacia. Aici, gâsca a devenit o vedetă brand-local, și își are un binecuvenit monument. Continuând pe acest segment faunistic, în ton cu ecoturismul, am ajuns și la o atracție din România. Proaspăt certificată ca și destinație ecoturistică (a treia din România, după Zărnești - Piatra Craiului, (județul Brașov), și Cosău–Mara–Creasta Cocoșului (județul Maramureș), zona Țara Hațegului–Retezat s-a numărat printre prezentările magnetice. Atracția majoră o reprezintă Geoparcul Dinozaurilor, în care brandul este dat, evident, de dinozauri, ale căror urme sunt în continuare descoperite de echipe de arheologi și voluntari pasionați. Din prezentarea lui Cristian Ciobanu, participanții au aflat cum se pot interpreta valorile unui teritoriu pentru dezvoltarea unei comunități locale. Se poate spune astfel că toți participanții au fost premiați: cu informații, cunoștințe, experiențe turistice. Toți au aflat ceva nou și s-au simțit provocați să contribuie fiecare în felul său, la dezvoltarea ecoturismului în România. \n\n \nCâte 3 pentru succes
\nDar să revenim la premianți: studenții care au obținut cele mai multe aprecieri din partea jurnaliștilor de turism, pentru eseuri sau pentru fotografii, și care au fost recompensați în finalul evenimentului. La secțiunea Eseu primele 3 poziții au fost ocupate de: Oana-Diana CRÎŞMARIU (anul III Licență, Facultatea de Business și Turism ASE) - Provocări pentru ecoturismul din România (Locul 1): Liana DUMITRACHE (anul III, Facultatea de Business și Turism ASE) - Ecoturism în Bucureşti (Locul 2): Georgiana Alina DOBRE (anul II Masterat, Universitatea București) - Ecoturismul în Cheile Nerei (Locul 3).\n\nLa secțiunea Fotografie: Locul 1, Special, a revenit Mădălinei COANDĂ (anul II, Masterat AAT, Facultatea de Business și Turism ASE) – ”Mioară năucă”, Locul 1: Ovidiu BUȚOI (anul II, Masterat AAT, Facultatea de Business și Turism ASE) - ”Mângâierea ultimelor raze de lumină”; iar locul 3 a fost ocupat de Adrian TAMASI-KLAUS (Facultatea de Business și Turism ASE) - cu lucrarea ”Mecanism acaparat”. Menționăm cu plăcere că revista Traveller Magazin a acordat mai multe premii de apreciere pentru aceste realizări profesionale. Mai mult, primii clasați la ambele secțiuni, au fost premiați și cu calitatea de membru-asociat, pentru un an, al FIJET România.\nCât de virtual, cât de real!
\nDeși încă pe băncile facultății, tinerii au dat dovadă și de maturitate în gândire, dar și de curajul de a-și comunica direct și îndrăzneț opiniile: Ecoturismul poate reprezenta o modalitate de a conecta copiii din generațiile actuale cu viața reală. Evoluția tehnologică este benefică, însă într-o mare măsură ne și afectează, fiind principala cauză pentru care cei mici sunt mai familiarizați cu mediul virtual decât cu cel real. Copiilor din mediul urban nu li se oferă șansa de a se bucura zi de zi de componentele vii ale mediului: plantele și animalele. Ieșirea în natură poate reprezenta o lecție interactivă, interdisciplinară de istorie, geografie și biologie, învățarea experențială fiind mult mai valoroasă decât lectura unor texte cu astfel de conținut. (...) O altă provocare pentru ecoturism o reprezintă practicarea sa într-un mod complet legal. Călătorii care aleg acest tip de turism deseori optează să se cazeze în cabane sau pensiuni care nu sunt înregistrate în circuitul turistic. Tocmai din acest motiv, din punctul de vedere al cazării, contribuția pe care o au la economia națională este practic inexistentă.(....) Toate variantele de a promova practicarea ecoturismului prezentate anterior ar putea fi completate perfect de un bun management al destinațiilor. În această privință ar fi foarte importantă o colaborare între autoritățile locale, pensiuni și meșteșugari. De un bun management al destinațiilor au dat dovadă până acum zone precum Delta Dunării, Țara Dornelor, Colinele Transilvaniei, Mărginimea Sibiului sau Țara Hațegului. (Oana-Diana CRÎŞMARIU - Provocări pentru ecoturismul din România)\nCălători prin plămânii naturii
\nEcoturismul trebuie să se desfășoare doar în afara orașelor? Cu această întrebare aș dori să încep, deoarece ecoturismul se axează mai mult pe sate, arii naturale și Delta Dunării, luate ca atare. Cum ar fi să încercăm să susținem bunăstarea populației și să apreciem partea aceea mică de natură din București, de examplu?! Poate că încă nu este prea târziu să ne ocupăm de “plămânul” capitalei. O consider o provocare pentru ecoturism din simplul fapt că până acum nu s-au luat prea multe măsuri în vederea conservării naturii, aici în Capitală. Bucureștiul ar putea însemna mai mult decât clădiri și zone modeste de verdeață. De exemplu, Parcul Natural Văcărești din SE-ul Bucureștiului sau “Delta dintre blocuri” este posibil a fi singurul parc natural din lume aflat într-un oraș. Acesta a devenit o arie protejată ca oricare alta aflată în zone mai puțin poluate și atinse de om. Dar, cu toate acestea, consider că Parcul ar putea oferi mai mult decât eventualele activități și programe gândite de Asociația Parc Natural Văcărești (existența unui Centru de Informare pentru vizitatori, plimbări cu bicicleta, alergare, observarea păsărilor, trasee tematice pentru studiu și interpretarea naturii) și anume, activități de plantare a cât mai multor copaci, organizarea de concursuri tematice și amenajarea de zone speciale pentru cunoașterea istoriei Bucureștiului, intrarea putând fi doar în grupuri mici, deoarece s-ar desfășura activități specifice unei arii protejate. (Liana DUMITRACHE - Ecoturism în Bucureşti)
\nEcoturismul a apărut în ultimele decenii ale secolului al XX-lea și a fost înțeles sub mai multe aspecte de-a lungul timpului. Acesta reprezintă o călătorie ecologică responsabilă în areale naturale neperturbate, cu scopul de relaxare și apreciere a naturii și a oricărei trăsături culturale, trecută sau prezentă din zonă, care promovează conservarea, având un impact negativ redus și oferă beneficii pentru comunitățile implicate. Cheile Nerei sunt un exemplu de un astfel de obiectiv turistic. Cu un peisaj variat aflat mereu în schimbare, cheile Nerei, sălbatice încă, reprezintă o eliberare din spaţiul antropic poluant şi o conectare cu natura. Sunt considerate în prezent cele mai lungi şi unele dintre cele mai spectaculoase chei din România care surprind prin varietatea formelor carstice, cu 22 kilometri lungime. (…) Comunitatea poate avea beneficii mari de pe urma acestei activități iar nivelul de viață ar crește substanțial în sensul unei dezvoltări consecvente și durabile, care să favorizeze natura și să păstreze o relație om-natură cât mai simplă și mai corectă. (Georgiana Alina DOBRE - Ecoturismul în Cheile Nerei)
\nDesigur, provocările pentru ecoturismul din România nu pot fi epuizate aici. Din fericire, sunt mulți adepți și specialiști care știu și militează pentru acest tip de turism al cărui succes e garantat.

I am very happy that the success and the standards of our hotel Tempo in Bucharest made us create the hotel chain with the same name in Turkey”.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nDUBAI has office in BUCHAREST\r\n\r\nDubai Corporation for Tourism & Commerce Marketing (DCTCM) opened a tourism promotion office in Bucharest, as a result of the large number of Romanian guests that have been visiting the Emirate in the last years. Over 46.700 have chosen this destination in 2015. For this year the market research estimates a 20% increase in the number of Romanian visitors that will choose Dubai as their holiday destination. „After Prague and Warsow, Bucharest becomes the third capital city of a country in the region to have a DTCMC” - said Dana Nabeel Abdulla Kamber, Strategic Alliances Manager of Dubai Corporation for Tourism and Commerce Marketing. Every year Dubai receives about 16 million visitors from around the globe. \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nRoyal Hotel will be 2nd Mercure\r\n\r\nThis summer the Royal Hotel in Bucharest will be affiliated to the Mercure brand, becoming the second unit in Romania, after Mercure Bucuresti City Center. The contract has been signed and the rebranding will happen at the end of the first semester of 2017, after a complete makeover of the location. \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n„It will become a truly remarkable 4 stars of the mid-scale class, reflecting the Art Deco touches of Bucharest. Mercure Bucuresti Unirii will have 97 rooms and apartments. In the future we aim to have 8 -10 Mercure hotels in the capital of Romania, as well as in other key cities such as Brasov, Sibiu, Sighisoara, Timisoara, Cluj-Napoca” - said Frank Reul, Area General Manager of Accor for Romania, Macedonia and Bulgaria. \r\nROMANIA - 8,5% increase in travel

Acum 25 de ani, Muzeul Naţional Cotroceni şi-a deschis porţile în slujba unui ideal: valorificarea istoriei ansamblului medieval şi modern Cotroceni, ilustrarea vieţii marilor personalităţi ale istoriei românilor al căror nume este legat de acest loc: Şerban Cantacuzino, Constantin Brâncoveanu, Barbu Ştirbei, Alexandru Ioan Cuza, Regele Carol I şi Regina Elisabeta, Regele Ferdinand I şi Regina Maria, care de-a lungul timpului au fost artizanii şi creatorii României moderne şi care au dat Cotrocenilor fastul şi strălucirea de odinioară, păstrând un patrimoniu valoros unic.\n\nMuzeul Naţional Cotroceni îşi propune să continue misiunea sa și în 2017. O primă expoziție de pictură contemporantă \"Semne din lada cu zestre\" aparține artistului Vasile Pop Negreșteanu.

Acestor vizitatori li se adaugă alte 2.200 de persoane lunar care au frecventat gratuit această atracție (preșcolarii, copiii institutionalizați etc), respectiv participații la evenimentele publice și private, organizate aici .Această dinamică se regăsește și în cifra de afaceri a companiei ce administrează castelul, ce a crescut cu peste 37% față de 2015 ajungând la peste 22,2 milioane de lei.

\n…Palatul Cantacuzino din Capitală în care se află Muzeul Național „George Enescu” va intra într-un program de restaurare și amenajare. Renovarea va costa circa 10 milioane de euro și urmează să fie finanțată dintr-un împrumul acordat de Banca de Dezvoltare a Consiliului Europei. Guvernul intenționează să aloce aproximativ 45,8 milioane de lei pentru aceste investiții. Interventiile vor fi realizate asupra tuturor clădirilor componente - Palatul Cantacuzino, Casa Memorială George Enescu și o anexă. În urma acestor lucrări va fi redat vieții artistice un ansamblu important, în care se vor desfășura activități socio-culturale de anvergură.
\nBUGETUL ALOCAT PENTRU

Ministrul Mircea Dobre, a precizat că, din această sumă, banii destinați promovării turismului românesc în țară și străinătate vor fi 5 milioane de euro. Anul trecut a fost acordat pentru pentru aceleași activități un total de 3 milioane de euro. Mulți turoperatori sunt de părere că în actualul context sumele respective ajung pentru salarii respectiv pentru câteva participări internaționale. Bugetul alocat pentru promovare ar trebui să fie mult mai mare dacă România își dorește să devină o destinație tot mai căutată de străini.

Potrivit doamnei Gülen Hashmi, directorul general al hotelului Tempo din Bucureşti, “distincţia care ne-a fost decernată la Oxford reprezintă o încununare a pasiunii cu care am demarat acest business hotelier.

\nHotelul Royal din Bucuresti va fi afiliat brand-ului Mercure si va fi a doua unitate cu acest nume din Romania, dupa Mercure Bucuresti City Center. Conform Contractul de management rebranduirea va fi operată la sfârșitul primului semestru din 2017, după ce hotelul va fi renovat complet și adaptat la standardele de marcă iar lansarea lui în circuitul turistic va avea loc în vara acestui an. „Hotelul va deveni cu adevărat un complex de 4 stele remarcabil al clasei mid-scale, reflectând repere art deco ale Bucureștiului. Mercure București Unirii va avea 97 de camere și apartamente. Ca toate hotelurile Mercure, va fi un hotel full service cu restaurant, bar, room service și săli de conferințe. Ne-am propus pe viitor să ajungem la o rețea de 8-10 hoteluri Mercure atât în București, cât și în alte orașe cheie din România, precum Brașov, Sibiu, Sighișoara, Timișoara, Cluj-Napoca etc ” - a declarat Frank Reul, Area General Manager al Accor pentru România, Macedonia și Bulgaria.
\nFIHR - un nou drum
\n
După ani de tăcere, Federația Industriei Hoteliere din România (FIHR), cîndva cea mai activă și apreciată organizație a industriei turistice autohtone, s-a hotărât să revină în piața comunicării, printr-o conferință de presă. O nouă echipă, dinamică și ambițioasă a reușit să restarteze interesul pentru activitățile profesionale ale breslei. Călin Ile a subliniat la hotelul Hilton -Athenee Palace din Capitală că ”asociația reunește la această oră 108 hoteluri cu un total de circa 11.250 de camere. Scopul nostru este ca în 2017 să dublăm numărul lor. Astfel vom avea mai mulți actori implicați în proiectele pe care le vom derula. Ele vizează în principal dezvoltarea sistemului educațional și de formare a forței de muncă în turism, cu punerea unui accent mult mai mare pe domeniul practicii profesionale”. Aici au fost subliniate bunele relații cu mediul profesional și dezbaterile susținute la ASE, universitățile Babeș Bolyai din Cluj, din Brașov, Româno-Americană, Institutul Francez etc. ”În același timp vom continua să milităm pentru susținerea unui climat de etică și fair-play în industria ospitalității dar și pentru o activizare a relațiilor noastre cu organismele internaționale din turism” a mai precizat Ile.

Ei, să nu vă imaginați că vă vor ataca prin codri deși și pădurile umbroase. Haiducii moderni au laptop, tablete, telefoane mobile cu care sunt conectați la toate noutățile. Nu mai călăresc, dar stăpânesc caii putere de pe mașinile moderne. Unii dintre ei sunt primari, alții au constituit un ansamblu popular prin 1999. Au scos și discuri pentru că se pricep să cânte de inimă albastră și frunză verde, la fel de bine ca strămoșii lor.
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5672,5673,5674,5675,5676,5677,5678,5679\"]\r\nNe-am întîlnit la Drăgășani, știți dumneavoastră, orașul și zona aceea celebre pentru vinurile sale (care concurează celebra regiune Bordeaux). Despre ele scria Gib Mihăescu în nuvela La Grandiflora, care a împrumutat numele unui vin Cuvee Grandiflora alchimiștilor de la Cramele Avincis. În jurul urbei dealurile sunt asaltate de podgorii vechi și noi - acoperite de investițiile caselor Isărescu, Iordache, Știrbey, Negrini ori Spârleni. Fiecare are socotelile lui, drept urmare nu se prea deschid circulației turistice, cultivate pe Drumurile Vinului. Punctul imaginar de plecare ar fi Muzeul viei și vinului din oraș, refăcut modern cu fonduri europene. Acest potențial ar trebui să atragă mai mulți vizitatori mai ales că hotelurile oferă condiții bune de cazare. Dar nu se întâmplă deocadată așa. Administrațiile locale ar trebui să creeze și alte atracții pentru ca turiștii să se oprească în zonă cel puțin pentru un weekend. Agențiile de turism sunt cam anemice în această privință.
\r\nDUPĂ TUDOR ȘI IANCU
\r\nPentru a crește vizibilitatea zonei e nevoie ca de oxigen de imaginație convertită în proiecte. Cinci primari Lixandru Carmen (Sutești), Spârleanu Ion (Crețeni), Vasile Ion (Pesceana), Duicu Iustin (Glăvile) și Drăghici Constantin (Amărăști), s-au gândit să pună la punct un program care să reunească mai multe atracții care se înșiră pe Valea Peșcenii. Șeful cu ideile este primarul Drăghici care are mulți susținători printre care fratele ori membrii Ansablului ”Haiducii din Amărăști”. Într-o întîlnire cu câțiva dintre cel mai valoroși jurnaliști și editori de turism el a subliniat că prin dezvoltarea unor programe turistice ar putea creea noi locuri de muncă. Asta ar conduce la creșterea atractivității a zonei pentru tinerii ce locuiesc aici. Programe, în curs de definitivare, au în interiorul lor povești legate de întâlniri ipotetice și personaje istorice. Pe aici bântuiau acum aproape 200 de ani, haiducii (denumirea Amărăști își trage seva de la locuitorii... amărășteni). Ținut de legendă în care fermentează amintirile răzvrătiților Olteniei, simpli aventurieri, răspopiți, păstrează și întâmplări din perioada fanariotă când birurile sufocaseră populația. Le mai rămânea doar calea pribegiei și a fărădelegilor. Ei jefuiau pe slujbașii domnitorilor grecotei instalați în Valahia de Înalta Poartă și o parte din avuții erau reâmpărțite săracilor. Din rândurile lor au apărut viteji ce s-au alăturat regimentelor de panduri ale lui Tudor Vladimirescu, ce au pornit revoluția la 1821. În Poiana lui Tudor s-ar fi întâlnit pe la 1820 Iancu Jianu, cel mai vestit haiduc din Oltenia, cu Tudor Vladimirescu și celebrii săi panduri. Pe acest subiect se poate croșeta, ca și pe cel al altui hainduc Cornea, care din banii jefuiți de la bogați a contribuit la ridicarea unor lăcașe de cult.
\r\nILEANA - UN FIERAR DE PATRIMONIU
\r\nÎn zonă există și un site Dacic, Cetatea de la Răești, pentru care va fi finalizată o infrastructură adecvată, 5 biserici dintre care 4 ortodoxe, cea mai cunoscută fiind Biserica din lemn. ”În ceea ce privește tradițiile în fiecare localitate funcționează ansambluri artistice care se primenesc periodic cu tineri pasionați. Călușarii încă mai există cu o adunare de vreo 10 de membri. Alături de Grupul de tineri ”Mireasma Zorilor” încercăm să reactivăm și ansamblul ”Flori de Mai„ renumit pentru dansurile sale. Mai avem și câteva tarafuri. Corneliu Bucur, mult timp director al Muzeului ASTRA, afirma după un spectacol că ”dacă toate satele ar avea păstrate tradițiile ca aici România ar fi printre primele din lume la conservarea folclorului”. Încercăm să punem în valoare munca mai multor meșteșugari, specializați în făcut butoaie, căruțe, cusătorese manuale dar și la războaie de țesut. O figură pitorească este fierarul Leana care mai execută piese din fier necesare cailor” - ne-a relatat primarul Constantin Drăghici. Leana de la Amărăști are probabil valoare de patrimoniu meșteșugăresc. La 78 de ani, e singura femeie fierar din zonă și din România. Meseria a preluat-o de la soțul său care s-a stins de vreo 40 de ani. Iar acum o dă spre moștenire fiicei sale care fură meseria în timpul mânuirii foalelor, o instalație originală ce refuză să-și dea duhul.
\r\nDE E VIN, VENIM!
\r\nToate acestea vor fi mai bine asamblate în proiectele turistice. Se caută un limbaj atractiv menit să atragă noile generații spre aceste locuri, de o frumusețe ca la începutul lumii. Traseul parcurs de Tudor Vladimirescu în 1821, face subiectul unei rute și a unui concurs de cicloturism; Poiana unde s-au întîlnit Iancu cu Tudor, va fi amenajată pentru spectacole artistice; cele două brutării și singura pensiune din zonă, precum și fieraria doamnei Ileana (că așa se cuvine să-i spunem) vor găzdui tururi de inițiere pentru turiști; dacă se vor opri mai mulți aici va fi timp și de o vizită la Biserica de la Padina, pictată de Ioan Zugravu. Urmarea firească, mai mulți proprietari își vor amenaja o parte din camere pentru a primii turiști, își vor pregăti ceaunele pentru a găti tradițional, de la mămăligă trasă la cuptor până la tocană din legume și carne de porc, cîrnați descântați în mirodenii. Parte din acestea am testat și noi împreună cu Haiducii de la Amărăști la un pahar de vin. Cîntecele lor tradiționale te fac să te încingi într-o horă în care toți sunt mîndrii că sunt români. Dar ce facem cu vinului de Mitrofani. În vom...aprofunda. Cu prima ocazie! Nu de alta dar pe Valea Peșcenii circulă o vorbă foarte potrivită: ”De e vin, venim!”

În sezonul rece, reducerile au ajuns chiar și până la 50% pentru unele destinații. \n\n\n\nPotrivit unui studiu efectuat de Christian Tour, cea mai mare agenție de turism din România, numărul sejururilor pentru vara 2017, achiziționate încă de la începutul lunii noiembrie, a crescut în medie cu 55%. Cea mai spectaculoasă creștere, de până la 75%, se înregistrează pentru stațiunile de pe litoralul turcesc (Antalya, dar și Coasta Egee). Turcia se află și în topul destinaţiilor cu cele mai mari discounturi pentru pachetele achiziționate până la jumătatea lunii decembrie. Favorită a publicului român și în 2017 rămâne Grecia. \n\nRezervările pentru insulele Zakynthos sau Santorini au crescut cu 45%, respectiv 43%, pe fondul unor prețuri mai mici cu până la 50%, prin programele Early Booking. De aceleași discounturi se bucură și pachetele în Corfu, Thassos, Halkidiki și Lefkada, dar și litoralul bulgăresc al Mării Negre. Au beneficiat de reduceri de 30-40% și cei care au achiziționat vacanțe în Kusadasi, Creta, Rhodos și Santorini, dar și pe litoralul românesc. \n\nInteresul turiștilor pentru Santorini a crescut cu 45%, pentru Zakynthos cu 43%, pentru Mallorca cu 38% , iar pentru litoralul românesc cu 35%. Marius Pandel, CEO Christian Tour apreciază că \"Interesul crescut pentru pachetele Early Booking se explică și prin faptul că turiștii își doresc să aleagă hoteluri de rang superior și știu că acestea, de obicei, devin sold out cu mult timp înainte de plecare\". \nCÂMPINA: Țară, țară vrem incoming !
\nExportul turistic nu stă deloc pe roze. Din cele circa 2600 de agenții de turism care ar activa legal în România cam 50 sunt specializate sau sunt tangente cu acest segment.

\nDUBAI a deschis birou turistic la BUCUREȘTI
\nDubai Corporation for Tourism & Commerce Marketing (DCTCM), a deschis o reprezentanță de promovare turistică la București, ca urmare a numărului mare de turiști români care au vizitat Emiratul în ultimii ani. Numai în 2015 au fost înregistrați 46.700 de vizitatori români. ”
\n

În sezonul rece, reducerile au ajuns chiar și până la 50% pentru unele destinații. \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nPotrivit unui studiu efectuat de Christian Tour, cea mai mare agenție de turism din România, numărul sejururilor pentru vara 2017, achiziționate încă de la începutul lunii noiembrie, a crescut în medie cu 55%. Cea mai spectaculoasă creștere, de până la 75%, se înregistrează pentru stațiunile de pe litoralul turcesc (Antalya, dar și Coasta Egee). Turcia se află și în topul destinaţiilor cu cele mai mari discounturi pentru pachetele achiziționate până la jumătatea lunii decembrie. Favorită a publicului român și în 2017 rămâne Grecia. \r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_5689\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"1024\"] OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA[/caption]\r\n\r\nRezervările pentru insulele Zakynthos sau Santorini au crescut cu 45%, respectiv 43%, pe fondul unor prețuri mai mici cu până la 50%, prin programele Early Booking. De aceleași discounturi se bucură și pachetele în Corfu, Thassos, Halkidiki și Lefkada, dar și litoralul bulgăresc al Mării Negre. Au beneficiat de reduceri de 30-40% și cei care au achiziționat vacanțe în Kusadasi, Creta, Rhodos și Santorini, dar și pe litoralul românesc. \r\n\r\nInteresul turiștilor pentru Santorini a crescut cu 45%, pentru Zakynthos cu 43%, pentru Mallorca cu 38% , iar pentru litoralul românesc cu 35%. Marius Pandel, CEO Christian Tour apreciază că \"Interesul crescut pentru pachetele Early Booking se explică și prin faptul că turiștii își doresc să aleagă hoteluri de rang superior și știu că acestea, de obicei, devin sold out cu mult timp înainte de plecare\". \r\nCÂMPINA: Țară, țară vrem incoming !
\r\nExportul turistic nu stă deloc pe roze. Din cele circa 2600 de agenții de turism care ar activa legal în România cam 50 sunt specializate sau sunt tangente cu acest segment. Chiar și în aceste condiții ostile mediului de afaceri din zona turistică numărul turiștilor străini a cunoscut o creștere în ultimii ani. Potențialul este foarte mare. \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAprecierile au fost lansate la a 4-a ediție a Forumului de incoming, care s-a desfășurat în sala de evenimente a societății industriale a Confind Câmpina, proprietate a omului de afaceri Ioan Simion.

\r\nThis winter the Austrian A-Heat Group concluded the development works of Therme București Complex, by expanding the Galaxy area with an additional space of 4000 scuare meters. The works started and ended for Galaxy a alot faster than initially projected, due to the massif request from visitors, in such a way that today Galaxy can accomodate almost 2.000 persons simultaneously. The value of the investment is somewhere arround 10 million euro. The attractions of the area include three wet saunas, a salt library with a height of 6 meters. For building the last one 40 tones of Himalaya salt were used, and the space offers 150 books and ebooks as well.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/Therme-engl.jpg\")

The expansion of the complex means also moore green space (+10%), the number of palm trees, coming from 4 diffrent continents, reaching 1.400 de arbori. Therme București is the home today of the largest palm trees plantation in Europe. The complex can be now named the largest botanical garden in Romania, hosting over 800.000 plants. The representatives of Therme plan future extensions and think about placing a hotel nearby. Therme București, located in Balotești, some 20 km away from the Capital city of Romania, is the biggest Therme in Europe, built Greenfield, on a total surface of 250.000 square meters.

\r\n
The Brittish publication „The Telegraph“ selected two Romanian attractions in its top of must see places in Eastern Europe: The Danube Delta in Romania and the Transfăgărașan high altitude scenic road. According to a recent study, more and more brits give up destinations such as France, Spain or Italy in favor of Eastern European countries. Among the main reasons one counts the accesible costs of such a holiday and the high security level. The Telegraph places the Danube Delta on number 2, after Tallinn (Estonia) and before Riga (Letonia), saying: „Europe s second longest river (...) takes its curtain call on the Romanian shore of the Black Sea. It pours out its soul in the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve, 1,055 square miles of protected wetlands where pelicans and herons flap wings.“
\r\nThe Transfăgărașan road is listed on number 10, and Adrian Bridge writes about it: „ I am not surprised that in his search for the Worlds best driving road Jeremy Clarkson a declared that he found it in the middle of Romania – in the form of the Transfagarasan highway. Whichever way you look at it, the brainchild of Romanias communist-era leader Nicolae Ceausescu is an extraordinary feat of engineering.”
\r\n+ 2 for PHOENICIA\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/Hotel-Phoenicia-engl.jpg\")
\r\n
The Romanian hotel brand Phoenicia counts two more hotel properties. The first one is on the Romanian seaside, in Olimp: The Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere Complex of hotels. The former owner Josef Goshy, had listed the hotels three years ago with 30 million euros, but settled eventually with Mohammad Murad, owner of Phoenicia Group, for 10 million euro. Currently the complex, once the star of Romanian seaside, is downgraded at 1 star only. After the 15 million euros renovation, scheduled to conclude before June 1st, 2018, the new Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere by Phoenicia will have 4 stars.
\r\nThe second tranzaction is the one of the historic Lido Hotel, once famous in Bucharest. Projected by Ernst Doneaud and opened in August 1930 Lido will be now rented by the current owners, to the group of Mohammad Murad, for the next 15 years. Phoenicia Group prepares a 5 million euro make-over, and a reopening in the fall. Murad would like to affiliate Lido (119 rooms and 4 stars plus rating) to Donald Trump hotels. Till then its name will be Lido by Phoenicia.
\r\nANDREESCU: Maramureș as a document\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/Andreescu-engl.jpg\")
\r\n
An artist photographer is in his realm when writting with light. Florin Andreescu counts among the greatest such artists in Romania. His atelier is the historical region of Maramureș, in northern Romania, an area that has the embition to preserve its traditions but to reinvent itself in the modern world. These are the two themes of the exhibition opened at the Romanian cultural Institute in Bucharest. Together with Ad Libri Publishing House, the family business, the artist offered a 60 minutes documentary: ”Maramureș - old and new”.

\r\nBUCHAREST: Galaxy, the new investment of Therme
\r\nThis winter the Austrian A-Heat Group concluded the development works of Therme București Complex, by expanding the Galaxy area with an additional space of 4000 scuare meters. The works started and ended for Galaxy a alot faster than initially projected, due to the massif request from visitors, in such a way that today Galaxy can accomodate almost 2.000 persons simultaneously. The value of the investment is somewhere arround 10 million euro. The attractions of the area include three wet saunas, a salt library with a height of 6 meters. For building the last one 40 tones of Himalaya salt were used, and the space offers 150 books and ebooks as well.
\r\nThe expansion of the complex means also moore green space (+10%), the number of palm trees, coming from 4 diffrent continents, reaching 1.400 de arbori. Therme București is the home today of the largest palm trees plantation in Europe. The complex can be now named the largest botanical garden in Romania, hosting over 800.000 plants. The representatives of Therme plan future extensions and think about placing a hotel nearby. Therme București, located in Balotești, some 20 km away from the Capital city of Romania, is the biggest Therme in Europe, built Greenfield, on a total surface of 250.000 square meters.
\r\nTHE TELEGRAPH: Danube Delta and Transfăgărășan in Top 25
\r\nThe Brittish publication „The Telegraph“ selected two Romanian attractions in its top of must see places in Eastern Europe: The Danube Delta in Romania and the Transfăgărașan high altitude scenic road. According to a recent study, more and more brits give up destinations such as France, Spain or Italy in favor of Eastern European countries. Among the main reasons one counts the accesible costs of such a holiday and the high security level. The Telegraph places the Danube Delta on number 2, after Tallinn (Estonia) and before Riga (Letonia), saying: „Europe s second longest river (...) takes its curtain call on the Romanian shore of the Black Sea. It pours out its soul in the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve, 1,055 square miles of protected wetlands where pelicans and herons flap wings.“
\r\nThe Transfăgărașan road is listed on number 10, and Adrian Bridge writes about it: „ I am not surprised that in his search for the Worlds best driving road Jeremy Clarkson a declared that he found it in the middle of Romania – in the form of the Transfagarasan highway. Whichever way you look at it, the brainchild of Romanias communist-era leader Nicolae Ceausescu is an extraordinary feat of engineering.”
\r\n+ 2 for PHOENICIA
\r\nThe Romanian hotel brand Phoenicia counts two more hotel properties. The first one is on the Romanian seaside, in Olimp: The Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere Complex of hotels. The former owner Josef Goshy, had listed the hotels three years ago with 30 million euros, but settled eventually with Mohammad Murad, owner of Phoenicia Group, for 10 million euro. Currently the complex, once the star of Romanian seaside, is downgraded at 1 star only. After the 15 million euros renovation, scheduled to conclude before June 1st, 2018, the new Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere by Phoenicia will have 4 stars.
\r\nThe second tranzaction is the one of the historic Lido Hotel, once famous in Bucharest. Projected by Ernst Doneaud and opened in August 1930 Lido will be now rented by the current owners, to the group of Mohammad Murad, for the next 15 years. Phoenicia Group prepares a 5 million euro make-over, and a reopening in the fall. Murad would like to affiliate Lido (119 rooms and 4 stars plus rating) to Donald Trump hotels. Till then its name will be Lido by Phoenicia. \r\n\r\n
\r\nANDREESCU: Maramureș as a document
\r\nAn artist photographer is in his realm when writting with light. Florin Andreescu counts among the greatest such artists in Romania. His atelier is the historical region of Maramureș, in northern Romania, an area that has the embition to preserve its traditions but to reinvent itself in the modern world. These are the two themes of the exhibition opened at the Romanian cultural Institute in Bucharest. Together with Ad Libri Publishing House, the family business, the artist offered a 60 minutes documentary: ”Maramureș - old and new”. The moovie (commentary by Dana Ciolcă, lecture by Mihai Gruia Sandu, make-over Alexandru Stănescu) is in Romanian, with subtitles in English, French, German, Spanish and Italian. The event gathered also the specialists that researched the area (Ana Bârcă, Doina Ișfănoni etc.), people that try to explain the Maramureș of our days, a changing world where the simple traditional lifestyle once known as a rule is trying to survive next to the models and customs that young people working abroad are bringing inside.

\r\n
Cel mai fascinant obiectiv turistic subteran din țara noastră - Salina Turda - a primit anul trecut 617.890 de turiști. Cu acest record, cel mai mare din istoria minei, ea a devenit cel mai vizitat obiectiv turistic public din România. Ziua magică a fost în 2016 cea în care a căzut Sfânta Maria când au fost înregistrați peste 8.000 de vizitatori, trafic la care a fost nevoie de temporizarea fluxurilor subterane de turiști - spune Simona Baciu, directorul Salinei Turda.
\r\nNumărul în creștere al călătorilor i-a determinat pe cei din conducerea salinei să decidă o mărire a spațiului de vizitat, prin reabilitarea minei Iosif. Pentru acest lucru se intenționează obținerea unor fonduri printr-un nou proiect european, noile amenajări presupunând costuri ridicate. Salina Turda, ce a fost modernizată în urma cu câțiva ani cu bani europeni -, oferă spații de joaca pentru copii, un carusel uriaș, zone de sport - minigolf, bowling, biliard, tenis de masă, un lac pe care turiștii se pot plimba cu barca, un amfiteatru pentru spectacole, dar și zone destinate întreținerii sănătății unde oamenii își pot trata rinitele, astmul bronșic, infecțiile respiratorii etc. (ION BADEA)

\r\n\r\nPublicația britanică „The Telegraph“ a selectat într-un top al locurilor din Europa de Est pe care orice om trebuie să le vadă cel puțin o dată în viață și două atracții din România: Delta Dunării respectiv Transfăgărașanul. Potrivit unui studiu recent, tot mai mulți britanici renunță la destinații precum Franța, Spania ori Italia în favoarea celor din Europa de Est. Printre principalele motive se numără costurile accesibile unei astfel de călătorii, dar și nivelul ridicat de siguranță. În acest context, „The Telegraph“ a plasat Delta Dunării pe locul 2, notând: „Al doilea cel mai lung fluviu din Europa – 2.864 de kilometri – își intinde cortina peste litoralul românesc al Mării Negre. Își revarsă sufletul în Rezervația Biosferei Delta Dunării, 2.732 de kilometri de zone umede protejate.“ Pe locul 10 se află Transfăgărașanul, despre care jurnalistul de turism Adrian Bridge scrie: „Nu sunt deloc surprins că, în căutarea celui mai bun drum rutier din lume, Jeremy Clarkson a declarat că l-a găsit în mijlocul României sub forma Transfăgărașanului. Indiferent din ce parte îl privești, ideea liderului comunist Nicolae Ceaușescu este o extraordinară și curajoasă invenție inginerească. (...) În cazul în care ideea ta de Rai este să conduci pe un drum cu serpentine care se întinde pe 80 de kilometri, atunci Transfăgărașanul este ceea ce cauți“ - scrie Bridge.
Pe locul 1 în Top 25 locuri din Europa de Est se află Tallinn (Estonia) iar pe trei Riga (Letonia). Alte aprecieri au fost exprimate pentru Moscova (Rusia), Munții Tatra (Slovacia/Polonia), St. Petersburg (Rusia), Praga (Cehia), Kotor Bay (Muntenegru), Dubrovnik (Croația), Parcul Național Triglav (Slovenia), Budapesta (Ungaria) etc.
\r\nTRAVEL: Ora exactă
\r\nConform datelor fostei ANT, azi convertită în Ministerul Turismului, în România mai activează circa 2.600 de agenții de turism licențiate. La acest număr s-a ajuns după ce au fost retrase 1.080 de licențe în domeniu. Alte 162 de licențe sau anexe ale licențelor au fost radiate anul trecut la cererea companiilor ce lucrează în acest sector. De asemenea la secțiunea ”Autorizare Turism” a fost publicată și lista structurilor de primire turistice cu funcțiuni de cazare clasificate, a celor cărora li s-a retras certificatul de clasificare, lista restaurantelor clasificate, care sunt stațiunile turistice atestate, pârtiile de schi omologate, precum și lista ghizilor care dețin atestat de ghid de turism.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/Ev-agentii.jpg\")
\r\n
Conform reglementărilor fiecare agenție este obligată să încheie o poliță de asigurare împotriva insolventei sau a falimentului și să facă dovada existenței acesteia. Polițele acoperă despăgubiri de 10.000 de dolari, în cazul agențiilor de turism detailiste, și de 50.000 de dolari pentru touroperatori.

\r\nCea mai vizibilă și cea mai așteptată vânzare s-a petrecut în stațiunea Olimp unde Josef Goshy a reușit să vândă după runde dure de negocieri cu aproximativ 10 milioane de euro (după ce în urmă cu vreo 10 ani cerea 30), Complexul Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere. Ajuns într-o stare dezastruoasă, la o clasificare de o stea, vedeta litoralului românesc cândva, a fost cumpărată de către lanțul Phoenicia, creat și controlat de omul de afaceri Mohammad Murad. Acesta are ambiții mari dar, după cum a dovedit până acum, realizabile. El va investi în complex circa 15 milioane de euro, iar data inaugurării a fost stabilită pentru 1 iunie 2018. După cum a declarat achiziția s-a făcut cu ajutorul Băncii Transilvania iar finanțarea investiției este susținută printr-o sucursală din România a unei bănci americane. După renovare complexul va fi reclasificat la 4 stele și se va numi Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere by Phoenicia. Mohammad Murad deține pe litoral 3.500 de locuri de cazare în mai multe hoteluri în Năvodari, Mamaia, Jupiter, Olimp și Neptun.
\r\nA doua tranzacție și ea la fel de așteptată în Capitala României are ca subiect Lido, hotel istoric, emblemă a perioadei interbelice. Lido a fost proiectat de către arhitectul Ernst Doneaud și a fost inaugurat în luna august 1930. Hotelul a fost preluat tot de grupul controlat de Mohammad Murad. Proprietarul lanțului hotelier Phoenicia, a închiriat hotelul pe 15 ani de la proprietari, cu drept de cumpărare, și pregătește o investiție de peste 5 milioane de euro în lucrări de renovare, pentru a redeschide hotelul în toamna acestui an. „Vreau să reîntorc la vremurile de glorie acest hotel, care a fost multă vreme simbolul Bucureștiului. Vreau să-l readuc pe harta turistică a Bucureștiului” -a declarat Murad. El ar dori să afilieze Lido (ce va avea 119 camere și va activa la un standard de 4 stele plus) la lanțul hotelier al lui Donald Trump. Pâna atunci se va numi Lido by Phoenicia. Lanțul hotelier al actualului președinte american, Trump Hotels, include unități de lux în New York, Las Vegas, Toronto, Panama, Vancouver, Washington, Waikiki, Chicago.
\r\nTANZACȚII la Herculane și Eforie
\r\nFostul hotel Traian, actualmente Carol I, din stațiunea Băile Herculane, a fost scos la vânzare de către proprietari pentru suma de 1,2 milioane de euro. Hotelul (care are 74 de camere și se află în curs de renovare) a fost construit în 1869 de către împăratul Franz Joseph și a fost numit Rudolf, după numele unicului său fiu, iar mai apoi a primit numele Traian. După primul război mondial, hotelul a fost cedat României și a primit numele de hotel Carol. Hotelul a fost folosit până la închiderea în 2005 din cauza degradării. Actualul proprietar a început lucrările de renovare încă din 2011, iar cine va cumpăra clădirea va trebui să continue lucrările de renovare. În toamna lui 2016, Consiliul Local al orașului Băile Herculane a decis să nu-și exercite dreptul de preemțiune ca să cumpere imobilul ce figurează pe lista clădirilor de patrimoniu.
\r\nȘi UCECOM, care este acționar semnificativ la hotelurile Hefaistos din Eforie Nord, respectiv din Covasna s-a hotărât să scoată la vânzare prin licitatie, la pachet, cele două unități. Prețul urmează să fie stabilit în urma unei analize efectuate de către un specialist. Operațiunea va fi avizată de acționarii societății Hefaistos CM. Hefaistos din Eforie Nord este clasificat la 2 stele, deține 202 camere și 404 locuri de cazare. Hotelul din Covasna funcționează la 2 stele, oferă 130 de camere și 288 locuri de cazare, și are o bază proprie de tratament. El este amplasat la 500 de metri de pârtia de schi Covasna.
\r\nBUCUREȘTI: Galaxy are o bibliotecă de sare
\r\nDeși investiția finalizată în această iarnă era planificată pentru viitorii ani grupul austriac A-Heat a accelerat lucrările de dezvoltare la complexul Therme București a zonei Galaxy cu un nou spațiu de 4.000 de metri pătrați. Extinderea zonei Galaxy s-a realizat mai devreme decât planificau dezvoltatorii proiectului, ca urmare a cererii foarte mare a vizitatorilor pentru această zonă. Ea a ajuns azi la o capacitate de 2.000 de persoane simultan. Valoarea investiției se ridică la circa 10 milioane de euro. Printre atracțiile zonei se regăsesc trei saune umede, paturi cu hidromasaj, cu raze infraroșii, dar și o biblioteca de sare. Aceasta are o înălțime de 6 metri, a necesitat 40 de tone de sare de Himalaya pentru a amenaja spațiul care oferă 150 de volume de beletristică și ebook-uri, 14 console Playstation și jocuri. Principalele beneficii ale bibliotecii sunt cromoterapia și aerosolii. Zona dispunde și de o piscină cu cel mai mare poolbar din centrul Therme, cu o capacitate de 80 de locuri. De asemenea, noul spațiu conex corpului Galaxy are un acoperiș complet retractabil, în ambele direcții, cu o suprafață de 800 metri pătrați și cu o greutate de circa 100 de tone.
\r\nOdată cu această extindere, suprafața totală înverzită a complexului a crescut cu peste 10%, iar numărul palmierilor ajunge la 1.400 de arbori, proveniți de pe patru continente. Astfel, Therme București găzduiește cea mai mare plantație de palmieri din Europa. Centrul deține și cea mai mare grădină botanică din România cu peste 800.000 de plante. De asemenea, zona The Palm a fost extinsă cu o terasă având o capacitate de 400 de locuri, o plajă exterioară cu o suprafață de peste 24.000 de metri pătrați și piscină ”Crazy River”. De asemenea zona exclusivistă Elysium a fost extinsă, cu o terasă. Pentru viitor, reprezentanții Therme iau în calcul posibilitatea inaugurării unui hotel în aproprierea complexului, dar și alte extinderi. Therme București, care este amplasat la Balotești, constituie cel mai mare Therme din Europa, construit greenfield, pe un areal de 250.000 de metri pătrați.

Ea caută soluții pentru a reveni și înregistra un nou boom turistic.
\r\nStrategii și priorități. Dar mai ales cum va arăta Tunisia în anii 2020! Despre asta s-a vorbit la un simpozion de la care, firește, presa internațională de turism, în principal concentrată în jurul FIJET, a fost prezentă. Printre aceștia ne-am numărat și noi, o delegație a FIJET România, care în acest an va marca 10 ani de la revenirea în Federația Internațională a Jurnaliștilor și Editorilor de Turism, cea mai importantă organizație mondială de profil.\r\n\r\nÎn ultimii ani oficialii tunisieni au avut o opțiune constantă de a numi o femeie la conducerea Ministerului Turismului. Doamna Selma Elloumi Rekik e parte din această galerie. În scurta noastră întîlnire, ca și în timpul interviului acordat a ținut să sublinieze cât de important este turismul pentru țara sa. De el depinde viața zilnică a multor oameni, fiind un domeniu în care se creează locuri de muncă pentru tineri și, desigur, pentru femei. 10 procente aduce industria fără fum la Produsul Intern Brut al Tunisiei. Doamna Selma Elloumi Rekik, a precizat că „Tunisia a luat o serie de măsuri active pentru a fi una dintre cele mai bune destinații turistice din zonă. În regiunea euro-mediteraneană are o poziție geografică privilegiată. Este bogată din punct de vedere cultural, deține un patrimoniu diversificat dar și 1.000 de kilometri de plaje frumoase. În fine, dar nu în cele din urmă, Sahara noastră este una din cele mai uimitoare regiuni. Lucrăm acum la o strategie pentru a diversifica produsul nostru, în încercarea de a răspunde noilor așteptări ale consumatorilor.”\r\n\r\n Oficialul turismului tunisian a afirmat că se lucrează și la o nouă strategie de marketing pentru a accesa noi segmente ale turismului internațional. Tehnologia comunicațiilor continuă să înregistreze un progres imens prin globalizare și a apărut o nouă presă: ziare, radio și reviste online, televiziune prin satelit, facebook, twitter etc. Conform ministrului tunisian evoluția turismului este ”dependentă de pozițiile exprimate de presa de profil. Studiile arată că mass media are o imfluență în creștere în alegerea unei destinații de vacanță. Media credibilă trebuie să contribuie la promovarea turismului intenațional, fără amalgamuri și confuzii, iar jurnaliștii și scriitori de turism sunt investiți cu o nobilă misiune, pentru a transmite informații credibile și oneste”.\r\n\r\n Am întrebat-o pe doamna Selma Elloumi Rekik cum se promovează Tunisia? ”Avem permanent campanii de comunicare. Au existat mereu, fac parte din bugetul Ministerului Turismului, dar am schimbat complet mijloacele de comunicare. Lucrăm peste tot în digital, tot ceea ce este promovare, prin intermediul bloggerilor, prin intermediul formatorilor de opinie în exterior. Avem evenimente în Tunisia, invităm personalități politice, sportivi, din lumea cinematografiei, a spectacolelor, pentru a arăta situația din țara noastră, dar, de asemenea, prin intermediul publicațiilor formatoare de opinie în țara în care apar. ”Am întrebat-o, de asemenea, ce măsuri prefigurează pentru a câștiga încrederea turiștilor străini. „Noi lucrăm într-o transparență totală în privința a ceea ce înseamnă securitatea. Apoi noi îi invităm pe organizatorii de sejururi, demersurile fiind susținute de Ministerele de Interne și de Justiție. Organizate cu regularitate reuniuni în Tunisia. Noi transmitem că securitatea este la un nivel ridicat, fără niciun risc. Problemele care au fost în Tunisia au fost și în Belgia, și în Franța, deci nu este un fenomen tunisian, este un fenomen internațional.”\r\n\r\nDe la BARDO la UNESCO\r\n\r\nUna este să vorbești despre atracțiile Tunisiei, alta este să le vezi ”live”. Bardo este muzeul monumental al acestei țări. În sălile de expoziții e concentrată o istorie captivantă, pornind de la mitologie și ajungând până în prezent. Muzeul păstrează - ca o rană a umanității noastre - memoria celor 23 de victime ale unui atentat terorist absurd, care a însângerat locul în martie 2005. Stela comemorativă te întâmpină la intrare ca un simbol al solidarității umane. Tunisienii își doresc să vină cât mai mulți vizitatori străini și te primesc cu zâmbetul pe buze și urări de bun venit. Nu vor ca seria neagră a unor asemenea evenimente să-i mai atingă, căci ei nu se regăsesc în asemenea tensiuni nefericite. Bazele acestui muzeu fascinant au fost puse la 1882 iar clădirea ce-l găzduiește este un monument istoric, oglindă a stilului arhitectonic husseinid. Dacă vrei să-ți faci cât de cât o imagine alocă-ți din bugetul de timp cel puțin o jumătate de zi. Veți regăsi aici mozaicuri fabuloase - de la Virgiliu la Traian și Marcus Aurelius, Împăratul Constantin și Ulysse, Minotaurul și Diana, Apollo și Bachus, fresce și sarcofage, statui aparținând perioadei romane, cărțile sfinte ale creștinătății și islamului etc. Expunerea modernă și ghidajul gazdelor sunt atuurile locului iar materialele de prezentare și documentare acoperă toate limbile de circulație internațională.\r\n\r\nA doua ”escală” a fost la ”portul grădină al Mediteranei”. Adică portul El Kantaoui. Atmosfera respiră prietenos în stilul clasic tunisian cu influențe arabo-andaluze. Culori și aer degajat de relaxare. Portul turistic, cu sutele de ambarcațiuni ancorate (nu lipsește evident Corabia Piraților), și zecile de restaurante cu specific local și internațional te invită să petreci ”zi de vară până în seară”.\r\n\r\nNu trebuie să ratați, când ajungeți în Soussa, o vizită la vechea cetate a orașului. Ribat, datează din secolele VIII-IX iar arhitectura spun gazdele, este inspirată din cea a palatelor siriene. Turnul său de veghe era folosit pentru a transmite semnale luminoase către alte ”ribaturi” de-a lungul coastei. Și încă ceva. Întregul ansamblu istoric face parte din Patrimoniul Umanității UNESCO. Partea modernă a orașului este dominată de cartiere moderne iar resorturile amplasate de-a lungul litoralului așteaptă grupuri de turiști. Condițiile oferite răspund oricăror cerințe. Hoteluri ca Movenpick, Royal Thalassa, sau Marina Palace sunt pregătite să-și răsfețe turiștii ca pe niște regi. Cu condiția ca să și aleagă această destinație de vacanță. De aceea autoritățile nu fac economie la investiții în promovare. O spunea, la întîlnirea cu presa chiar doamna ministru Selma Elloumi Rekik. Se lucrează la educarea comercianților, mai ales la ”tehnicile de abordare”, la diversificarea comunicării și mai ales la invitarea jurnaliștilor internaționali profesionalizați, de a vizita și a scrie despre Tunisia. De ce nu ar face-o !\r\nȘTEFAN BACIU

\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/Palma-288.jpg\")
Puțini știu că în Palma au fost identificate peste 800 de peșteri care oferă vizitatorilor experiențe unice, memorabile. Dacă porniți spre sud-estul insulei, așa am făcut noi, veți găsi în vecinătatea satului de pescari Porto Cristo, exotica Coves del Drac. Inutil să mai traducem.

Despre comorile Palmei de Mallorca. Despre unele am scris. Despre cele subterane o facem acum. Căci insula nu este cunoscută doar pentru soare, apă și nisip ci și pentru peșterile din adâncurile sale. Ci mai ales pentru modul în care sunt valorificate pentru turism.
\r\nPuțini știu că în Palma au fost identificate peste 800 de peșteri care oferă vizitatorilor experiențe unice, memorabile. Dacă porniți spre sud-estul insulei, așa am făcut noi, veți găsi în vecinătatea satului de pescari Porto Cristo, exotica Coves del Drac. Inutil să mai traducem.

Familia se opune, cum era de așteptat unui eventual demers comercial.
\r\nUnde veți întâlni toate acestea? La Târgoviște. Este foarte greu să gestionezi o altă perspectivă decât cea clasică - susținută de istorie, arhitectură și cultură -, pentru a stârni interesul noilor generații. Proiecția noastră este doar o sugestie. Care suntem convinși că va avea destui fani. Din orice perspectivă privim Târgoviște este un oraș turistic. El a renăscut după ce mai mulți ani la rând a beneficiat de proiecte cu finanțare europeană ce au condus la modernizarea infrastructurii culturale, religioase și istorice. Primul punct forte este signalistica turistică care îți facilitează orientarea în centrul orașului și te direcționează spre celelalte obiective turistice. El doilea este asigurat de spațiile de parcare amenajate în vecinătatea principalelor atracții. Al treilea, aveți la îndemână chiar la intrarea în zona pietonală a Centrului Vechi, un Centru de informare turistică, bine garnisit cu hărți, broșuri, pliante și... recomandări pentru vizite în funcție de bugetul de timp de care dispuneți. Să vă fie clar. Chiar dacă e mai mic Târgoviște nu este un oraș pe care să-l abordați turistic într-o zi. Decât pe sărite așa cum sunt programele pentru străinii care sosesc aici în opționale de pe croazierele dunărene. Nu ne-am propus să vă facem capul baniță cu informații pe care le puteți afla din numeroase surse. Vă sugerăm doar o ordine atipică.
\r\nMai întâi dați o tură la Muzeul Evoluției Omului și Tehnologiei în Paleolitic. Nu fiți reticenți. A fost modernizat de curând și în interiorul său între filtre de lumini și umbre veți înțelege câteva dintre secretele istoriei zonale. Un unicat în felul său pentru că reunește cele mai senzaționale descoperiri făcute într-o jumătate de secol de către cercetătorul și profesorul Marin Cârciumaru. Preistoria strigă aici prin toate obiectele descoperite - arme din piatră, obiecte de podoabă ce ascund în ele peste 100.000 de ani. Chiar la intrarea vă așteaptă ospitalier ”homo sapiens” și peștera sa iar la ieșire un vânător iscusit ce pare că vrea să vă spună povești din vremuri ancestrale.
\r\nDupă ce v-ați lămurit cum stau lucrurile, firește, treceți pe la Ansamblul monumental ”Curtea Domnească” și emblematicul Turn al Chindiei. Din diverse surse veți afla că după Câmpulung (Campolongo, sfârşitul secolului al XIII-lea) şi Argeş (Argyas, prima jumătate a secolului al XIV-lea), Târgoviştea a devenit, încă din a doua jumătate a secolului al XIV-lea (cca. 1368), curte domnească secundară. Apoi că prima atestare importantă a oraşului este legată de Cruciada de la Nicopole, când, în anul 1396, un tânăr scutier numit Johann Schiltberger, ajuns prizonier al otomanilor, menţiona în ”Memoriile de călătorie” că a trecut în drumul său şi prin cele două capitale ale Ţării Româneşti, Argeş şi Târgovişte (Agrich und Türkoich). Deci anul trecut orașul a marcat o referință de 620 de ani. Obligatoriu trebuie să trăiți senzațiile tari din timpul urcatului în Turnul Chindiei, ridicat în timpul lui Vlad Țepeș. Acolo sus puteți face pe străjerul care anunța eventualele pericole dar aveți și ocazia de a vă lămuri în fața unei expoziții cum stau lucrurile cu Țepeș și Dracula. După această aventură intrați pentru cîteva minute și la Biserica mare Domnească, ctitoria voievodului Petru Cercel (1583-1585). Biserica a fost zidită în anul 1584 și poartă hramul Adormirea Maicii Domnului. Ea adăpostește numeroase picturi ce amintesc de personalitățile care au marcat istoria locurilor. O parte se află în proces de restaurare. Dacă sunteți fani ai cititului de cărți pe hârtie sau chiar electronice Muzeul Tiparului și al Cărților Vechi Românești amplasat în Casa Aramă, în imediata vecinătate, restaurat și modernizat cu fonduri europene vă poate dumiri cum se tipăreau cărțile, la început numai cele bisericești, înainte de a apărea tiparul cu litere mobile de metal. Introducerea lui în Ţara Românească este marcată de lucrările în limba slavonă ale lui Macarie: Liturghier (1508), Octoih (1510) şi Evangheliar (1512), realizate la Târgovişte, vatra tipăriturilor din Ţara Românească. Al doilea ”iluminat” de aici a fost Coresi, cel care va sădi în mintea oamenilor ideea că ”şi în limba română se poate citi cuvântul Domnului”. Alte lucrări sunt legate de Dimitrie Cantemir, Antim Ivireanu ori Școala Ardeleană. Circuitul muzeului se încheie cu prezentarea primelor trei publicaţii cu apariție regulată: Curierul Românesc (1829), editat de Ion Heliade Rădulescu, Albina Românească (1829), a lui Gheorghe Asachi, şi Gazeta de Transilvania, tipărită de George Bariţiu.
\r\nÎn fine, dacă vreți să o porniți spre Cazarma militară unde au fost judecați și executați dictatorii Ceaușescu, înarmați-vă cu răbdare. Unii vă vor spune că e undeva în apropierea Gării dar locul nu este marcat în mod special. De fapt nu există niciun Muzeu memorial. Ci doar niște camere cazone banale ale unei foste unități militare de cavalerie. Aici au trăit și au murit între 22 și 25 decembrie 1989 Nicolae și Elena Ceaușescu. Informațiile ce ne-au fost furnizate de ghida locală au fost cât se poate de decente. Dacă ai dorința de a colecționa o suvenire legată de acest loc, parte importantă din istoria românilor până la urmă, uită de acest aspect. Ghida ne arată un set de mici statuele care-i reproduc pe cei doi, brățări și mărgele pe care e marcată o frază rostită de Ceaușescu ”Istoria mă va răzbuna!”. Familia s-a opus oricărei activități care să comercializeze imaginea părinților. În orișice caz după această vizită veți pleca încărcați cu emoții greu de definit. Un Memorial Ceaușescu? Într-o primă etapă se gândește la un traseu muzeal, ilustrat, care să fixeze imaginile acelui moment istoric. Au trecut 27 de ani de atunci iar rănile încă nu s-au închis.
\r\nTinerii par preocupați de o altă istorie. Un repaus în Centrul Vechi, trebuie să te conducă la Restaurantul Belvedere, unde chefi concurează pe cei din localuri cu ștaif din București. De aici, privind în jur veți savura atmosfera și arhitectura ce l-a inspirat Mircea Horia Simionescu, scriitor născut în acest oraș, să descrie Târgoviște ca pe o ”Florență valahă”. A exagerat sau nu? Rămâne să stabiliți domniile voastre, vizitatorii.

Organizatorii au înțeles rapid cã lumea agențiilor de turism se comprimã. Drept urmare PS Multiservices Srl a apãsat pe accelerație și a ”hibridat” travelul cu noutãțile din HORECA.\r\n
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5720,5721,5722,5723,5724,5725\"]\r\nDe aceea vom relata într-o ordine atipicã cîteva dintre secvențele acestei manifestãri turistice. Foarte activi au fost pe acest segment TC Net cu programele sale prezentate de Ștefan Lițu. La fel și cei de la Gross-Metal, cu echipamente profesionale pentru hoteluri și restaurante, companie din Târgu Jiu condusã de grecul Michail Mitsanis. Georgiana Avram a atras la standul Romconect oameni interesați de suporturi publicitare atipice, de la tapet pânã la fețe metalice gen tablouri. Demonstrațiile s-au bucurat de apreciere. La fel și testãrile realizate la standul PPD de cãtre Virgil Gîrbea, unul dintre liderii supervisori ai brandului Jonnie Walker, dar și al Captain Morgan, Tazovsky, J&B, Campari, Lanson etc. O apreciere deosebitã pentru oamenii de afaceri bulgari, unii veniți de la Russe cu conceptul și cafeaua Affreti, prezentate de Svetoslav Kojunarov, ceilalți cu agenția de turism Solvex, deja familiarizați cu cerințele consumatorului român. La fel de flexibili s-au dovedit hotelierii din zona Olteniei. Fațã de alte manifestãri la Craiova au ofertat noi produse și pachete de vacanțã branduri ca Bacolux (Reprezentat de Marius și Florin Bazavan) , foarte activ în domeniile welness și spa, ca și Palace din Govora (Director Mariana Carp), sau Ramada-Craiova, toate investiții cu aer de unicat pe piața autohtonã.
\r\nLa capitolul travel amintim de prestațiile agențiilor Star Tours, Mapamond, Tropical Tours. Grecia va defila în acest sezon, dar nici Spania sau Turcia nu o vor duce rãu. Românii cautã din ce în ce mai mult pachete pentru Croaziere iar România va urca în topul vânzãrilor. Pe segmentul divertisment senzaþia Târgului de Turism al Olteniei a fost prezenþa celebrului Gogu Neagoe, care a creionat gratuit sute de caricaturi pentru vizitatori. Cele mai apreciate au fost portretele vedetelor, printre care cele ale lui Ion Țiriac, Simona Halep, Andra etc. Au fãcut diferența standurile și ansamblurile artistice ale Primãriei Municipiului Craiova, Consiliilor Județene Dolj, Gorj, Mehedinți, Vâlcea, și Camerei de Comerț și Industrie Dolj.\r\n
\r\nBRAȘOV: Ce repede a trecut un deceniu

“VINVEST crește de la an la an. Iar faptul că Timișoara va deține titlul de Capitală Europeană a Culturii în 2021 ne obligă să ne pregătim pentru o piață internațională. Am reușit anul acesta să aducem în salon crame prestigioase. Ca în fiecare an, și la această ediție sunt prezenți în târg reprezentanți ai serviciilor conexe producției vinului, adică cei care dezvoltă logistica. Micii producători sau cei care vor să devină producători pot găsi la VINVEST soluții și răspunsuri importante pentru proiectele lor” - a subliniat Ing. Lucia Pîrvu, directorul executiv VINVEST.
\r\nSalonul propune la această ediție cel mai amplu program de până acum: 9 degustări de vin asociate unor preparate gastronomice, 4 tombole cu premii în vin și vacanțe în România, lansare de carte, dezbateri pe tema turismului vitivinicol etc. O activitate deosebit de importantă, care are loc cu câteva zile înainte de VINVEST, este Concursul Național de Vinuri și Băuturi Alcoolice ediția XII. Juriu va premia cele mai bune vinuri din cele câteva zeci de probe înscrise. VINVEST - ediția XIV, este un eveniment susținut de peste 100 de parteneri, colaboratori și parteneri media. Co-organizatori sunt Asociația Degustătorilor Autorizați din România, Camera de Comerț Industrie și Agricultură Timișoara, Asociația de Cultură și Promovarea Vinului VINVEST, cu sprijinul Primăriei Municipiului Timișoara și al Consiliului Județean Timiș.

Organizatorii au înțeles rapid cã lumea agențiilor de turism se comprimã. Drept urmare PS Multiservices Srl a apãsat pe accelerație și a ”hibridat” travelul cu noutãțile din HORECA.
\r\nDe aceea vom relata într-o ordine atipicã cîteva dintre secvențele acestei manifestãri turistice. Foarte activi au fost pe acest segment TC Net cu programele sale prezentate de Ștefan Lițu. La fel și cei de la Gross-Metal, cu echipamente profesionale pentru hoteluri și restaurante, companie din Târgu Jiu condusã de grecul Michail Mitsanis. Georgiana Avram a atras la standul Romconect oameni interesați de suporturi publicitare atipice, de la tapet pânã la fețe metalice gen tablouri. Demonstrațiile s-au bucurat de apreciere. La fel și testãrile realizate la standul PPD de cãtre Virgil Gîrbea, unul dintre liderii supervisori ai brandului Jonnie Walker, dar și al Captain Morgan, Tazovsky, J&B, Campari, Lanson etc. O apreciere deosebitã pentru oamenii de afaceri bulgari, unii veniți de la Russe cu conceptul și cafeaua Affreti, prezentate de Svetoslav Kojunarov, ceilalți cu agenția de turism Solvex, deja familiarizați cu cerințele consumatorului român. La fel de flexibili s-au dovedit hotelierii din zona Olteniei. Fațã de alte manifestãri la Craiova au ofertat noi produse și pachete de vacanțã branduri ca Bacolux (Reprezentat de Marius și Florin Bazavan) , foarte activ în domeniile welness și spa, ca și Palace din Govora (Director Mariana Carp), sau Ramada-Craiova, toate investiții cu aer de unicat pe piața autohtonã.
\r\nLa capitolul travel amintim de prestațiile agențiilor Star Tours, Mapamond, Tropical Tours. Grecia va defila în acest sezon, dar nici Spania sau Turcia nu o vor duce rãu. Românii cautã din ce în ce mai mult pachete pentru Croaziere iar România va urca în topul vânzãrilor. Pe segmentul divertisment senzaþia Târgului de Turism al Olteniei a fost prezenþa celebrului Gogu Neagoe, care a creionat gratuit sute de caricaturi pentru vizitatori. Cele mai apreciate au fost portretele vedetelor, printre care cele ale lui Ion Țiriac, Simona Halep, Andra etc. Au fãcut diferența standurile și ansamblurile artistice ale Primãriei Municipiului Craiova, Consiliilor Județene Dolj, Gorj, Mehedinți, Vâlcea, și Camerei de Comerț și Industrie Dolj.\r\n

Poate am ratat momentul fiind prea preocupați de frunza și Grădina Carpaților.
\r\n\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_3965\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"225\"] Marian Constantinescu[/caption]\r\nAcum pare că a sosit și timpul nostru. Minister al Turismului avem, prieteni în persoana OMT-ului și a secretarului general Taleb Rifai avem. Trebuie doar să ne reintrăm în mână. Țara noastră s-a arătat din nou interesată și la ITB Berlin 2017 de un parteneriat cu OMT și pentru a contribui la programul turistic ”Drumul Mătăsii”. O rută comercială fabuloasă, extrem de profitabilă, pentru țările străbătute de caravanele ce legau țări din Asia Centrală de estul și vestul Europei. România ar urma să se numere printre acestea. Ruta ar putea să traverseze Dobrogea și Moldova (guvernul chinez anunța această variantă prin 2015). Ideea a mai fost avansată și de către americani în 2011, desenul fiind inspirat de un Drum al mătăsii, cu circa 6.000 de kilometri, descris încă din secolul al II-lea ÎC. Programele turistice ar fi benefice și pentru țara noastră în condițiile în care excursii de o săptămână spre Uzbekistan ori Turcia pornesc de la 1500 de euro.
\r\nInteresat de subiect am parcurs mai multe fișiere documentare. Și, suprinză. În revista ”Lumea”, numărul 3 din 2017, am găsit o scrisoare adresată redacției de Mihai Vasiliade, azi pensionar, un fost specialist transporturi, în care se precizează că inginerii români grupați la Institutul de Cercetări Tehnologice în Transporturi, au fost parte activă încă dinainte de 1989 la crearea unei variante moderne la anticul Drum al Mătăsii. Tema valorifica transportul combinat, multimodal, ce lega printre altele porturile Samsun, pe coasta nordică a Anatoliei, de Constanța, respectiv de Batumi (Georgia). Planurile comerciale au fost prezentate la o ședință a CEE-ONU, și transmise ulterior la New York. Studiile au fost concentrate în cartea ”Coridorul de transport euro-asiatic prin Marea Neagră. Drumul Mătăsii în secolul XXI”, ce conține rezumate traduse în 9 limbi, printre care arabă și chineză. Cu siguranță informații deținute de Mihai Vasiliade (ce și-a dedicat 25 de ani cercetării științifice) ar putea fi folosite cu succes la fundamentarea contribuției noastră la un Drum turistic al Mătăsii. Dacă aveți timp căutați-l domnule tânăr ministru al turismului. Locuiește în București.

Micii producători sau cei care vor să devină producători pot găsi la VINVEST soluții și răspunsuri importante pentru proiectele lor” - a subliniat Ing. Lucia Pîrvu, directorul executiv VINVEST.
\nSalonul propune la această ediție cel mai amplu program de până acum: 9 degustări de vin asociate unor preparate gastronomice, 4 tombole cu premii în vin și vacanțe în România, lansare de carte, dezbateri pe tema turismului vitivinicol etc. O activitate deosebit de importantă, care are loc cu câteva zile înainte de VINVEST, este Concursul Național de Vinuri și Băuturi Alcoolice ediția XII. Juriu va premia cele mai bune vinuri din cele câteva zeci de probe înscrise. VINVEST - ediția XIV, este un eveniment susținut de peste 100 de parteneri, colaboratori și parteneri media. Co-organizatori sunt Asociația Degustătorilor Autorizați din România, Camera de Comerț Industrie și Agricultură Timișoara, Asociația de Cultură și Promovarea Vinului VINVEST, cu sprijinul Primăriei Municipiului Timișoara și al Consiliului Județean Timiș.

\nUnde veți întâlni toate acestea? La Târgoviște. Este foarte greu să gestionezi o altă perspectivă decât cea clasică - susținută de istorie, arhitectură și cultură -, pentru a stârni interesul noilor generații. Proiecția noastră este doar o sugestie. Care suntem convinși că va avea destui fani. Din orice perspectivă privim Târgoviște este un oraș turistic. El a renăscut după ce mai mulți ani la rând a beneficiat de proiecte cu finanțare europeană ce au condus la modernizarea infrastructurii culturale, religioase și istorice. Primul punct forte este signalistica turistică care îți facilitează orientarea în centrul orașului și te direcționează spre celelalte obiective turistice. El doilea este asigurat de spațiile de parcare amenajate în vecinătatea principalelor atracții. Al treilea, aveți la îndemână chiar la intrarea în zona pietonală a Centrului Vechi, un Centru de informare turistică, bine garnisit cu hărți, broșuri, pliante și... recomandări pentru vizite în funcție de bugetul de timp de care dispuneți. Să vă fie clar. Chiar dacă e mai mic Târgoviște nu este un oraș pe care să-l abordați turistic într-o zi. Decât pe sărite așa cum sunt programele pentru străinii care sosesc aici în opționale de pe croazierele dunărene. Nu ne-am propus să vă facem capul baniță cu informații pe care le puteți afla din numeroase surse. Vă sugerăm doar o ordine atipică.
\nMai întâi dați o tură la Muzeul Evoluției Omului și Tehnologiei în Paleolitic. Nu fiți reticenți. A fost modernizat de curând și în interiorul său între filtre de lumini și umbre veți înțelege câteva dintre secretele istoriei zonale. Un unicat în felul său pentru că reunește cele mai senzaționale descoperiri făcute într-o jumătate de secol de către cercetătorul și profesorul Marin Cârciumaru. Preistoria strigă aici prin toate obiectele descoperite - arme din piatră, obiecte de podoabă ce ascund în ele peste 100.000 de ani. Chiar la intrarea vă așteaptă ospitalier ”homo sapiens” și peștera sa iar la ieșire un vânător iscusit ce pare că vrea să vă spună povești din vremuri ancestrale.
\nDupă ce v-ați lămurit cum stau lucrurile, firește, treceți pe la Ansamblul monumental ”Curtea Domnească” și emblematicul Turn al Chindiei. Din diverse surse veți afla că după Câmpulung (Campolongo, sfârşitul secolului al XIII-lea) şi Argeş (Argyas, prima jumătate a secolului al XIV-lea), Târgoviştea a devenit, încă din a doua jumătate a secolului al XIV-lea (cca. 1368), curte domnească secundară. Apoi că prima atestare importantă a oraşului este legată de Cruciada de la Nicopole, când, în anul 1396, un tânăr scutier numit Johann Schiltberger, ajuns prizonier al otomanilor, menţiona în ”Memoriile de călătorie” că a trecut în drumul său şi prin cele două capitale ale Ţării Româneşti, Argeş şi Târgovişte (Agrich und Türkoich). Deci anul trecut orașul a marcat o referință de 620 de ani. Obligatoriu trebuie să trăiți senzațiile tari din timpul urcatului în Turnul Chindiei, ridicat în timpul lui Vlad Țepeș. Acolo sus puteți face pe străjerul care anunța eventualele pericole dar aveți și ocazia de a vă lămuri în fața unei expoziții cum stau lucrurile cu Țepeș și Dracula. După această aventură intrați pentru cîteva minute și la Biserica mare Domnească, ctitoria voievodului Petru Cercel (1583-1585). Biserica a fost zidită în anul 1584 și poartă hramul Adormirea Maicii Domnului. Ea adăpostește numeroase picturi ce amintesc de personalitățile care au marcat istoria locurilor. O parte se află în proces de restaurare. Dacă sunteți fani ai cititului de cărți pe hârtie sau chiar electronice Muzeul Tiparului și al Cărților Vechi Românești amplasat în Casa Aramă, în imediata vecinătate, restaurat și modernizat cu fonduri europene vă poate dumiri cum se tipăreau cărțile, la început numai cele bisericești, înainte de a apărea tiparul cu litere mobile de metal. Introducerea lui în Ţara Românească este marcată de lucrările în limba slavonă ale lui Macarie: Liturghier (1508), Octoih (1510) şi Evangheliar (1512), realizate la Târgovişte, vatra tipăriturilor din Ţara Românească. Al doilea ”iluminat” de aici a fost Coresi, cel care va sădi în mintea oamenilor ideea că ”şi în limba română se poate citi cuvântul Domnului”. Alte lucrări sunt legate de Dimitrie Cantemir, Antim Ivireanu ori Școala Ardeleană. Circuitul muzeului se încheie cu prezentarea primelor trei publicaţii cu apariție regulată: Curierul Românesc (1829), editat de Ion Heliade Rădulescu, Albina Românească (1829), a lui Gheorghe Asachi, şi Gazeta de Transilvania, tipărită de George Bariţiu.
\nÎn fine, dacă vreți să o porniți spre Cazarma militară unde au fost judecați și executați dictatorii Ceaușescu, înarmați-vă cu răbdare. Unii vă vor spune că e undeva în apropierea Gării dar locul nu este marcat în mod special. De fapt nu există niciun Muzeu memorial. Ci doar niște camere cazone banale ale unei foste unități militare de cavalerie. Aici au trăit și au murit între 22 și 25 decembrie 1989 Nicolae și Elena Ceaușescu. Informațiile ce ne-au fost furnizate de ghida locală au fost cât se poate de decente. Dacă ai dorința de a colecționa o suvenire legată de acest loc, parte importantă din istoria românilor până la urmă, uită de acest aspect. Ghida ne arată un set de mici statuele care-i reproduc pe cei doi, brățări și mărgele pe care e marcată o frază rostită de Ceaușescu ”Istoria mă va răzbuna!”. Familia s-a opus oricărei activități care să comercializeze imaginea părinților. În orișice caz după această vizită veți pleca încărcați cu emoții greu de definit. Un Memorial Ceaușescu? Într-o primă etapă se gândește la un traseu muzeal, ilustrat, care să fixeze imaginile acelui moment istoric. Au trecut 27 de ani de atunci iar rănile încă nu s-au închis.
\nTinerii par preocupați de o altă istorie. Un repaus în Centrul Vechi, trebuie să te conducă la Restaurantul Belvedere, unde chefi concurează pe cei din localuri cu ștaif din București. De aici, privind în jur veți savura atmosfera și arhitectura ce l-a inspirat Mircea Horia Simionescu, scriitor născut în acest oraș, să descrie Târgoviște ca pe o ”Florență valahă”. A exagerat sau nu? Rămâne să stabiliți domniile voastre, vizitatorii.

Despre comorile Palmei de Mallorca. Despre unele am scris. Despre cele subterane o facem acum. Căci insula nu este cunoscută doar pentru soare, apă și nisip ci și pentru peșterile din adâncurile sale. Ci mai ales pentru modul în care sunt valorificate pentru turism.
\n
Puțini știu că în Palma au fost identificate peste 800 de peșteri care oferă vizitatorilor experiențe unice, memorabile. Dacă porniți spre sud-estul insulei, așa am făcut noi, veți găsi în vecinătatea satului de pescari Porto Cristo, exotica Coves del Drac. Inutil să mai traducem. Săpată în solul calcaros se află o peșteră care se întinde pe 1,6 kilometri. Este renumită pentru privilegiul de a avea cel mai mare lac subteran din... lume. Nu exagerăm, asta spun specialiștii. Lago Martel poartă numele speologului francez care l-a descoperit în 1896. Și doar atât. Întâmplarea fericită a făcut ca pământurile sub care se afla această peșteră să intre în posesia familiei lui Don Petro Caldentey, un alt speolog al vremii. El redescoperă acestă tărâm subteran în martie 1905. Istoria descoperirilor s-ar putea încheia aici. Dar nu s-a întâmplat așa. Localnicii au simțit gustul banului atras de turism iar soluțiile au apărut de unde nu se așteptau.
\n\nFiul exploratorului, Lorenzo Caldentey, proiectează un sistem de iluminat al peșterii care o transformă într-un tărâm de vis. Mai mult a fost creat și un traseu turistic al cărui punct culminant este ”Marea Veneției”. Lacul despre care vorbeam a fost transformat într-o feerie vizuală și muzicală. Din ambarcațiunile care străbat lacul se aud acorduri și interpretări vocale inspirate de muzica lui Mozart. Programul artistic a fost inaugurat în 2010 și a avut un succes fantastic la publicul turistic. Traseul pe care l-am parcurs are o lungime totală de 850 de metri, cu numeroase coborâri și urcări facilitate de scări cu protecție maximă. Luați în calcul încălțăminte antiderapantă deoarece cimentul este alunecos datorită climatului interior.
\nPe parcursul rutei sunt programate opriri... tematice în puncte denumite expresiv: 2 martie, Visul unui înger, Paradisul pierdut, Valea Deliciilor, Sala imaginilor sau Palatul imperial. Toate îți procură o mare satisfacție. O altă perspectivă artistică îți este oferită de stalactitele și stalagmitele iluminate multicolor ce contribuie din plin la completarea unei atmosfere magice.
\nNe tragem sufletul și credem că am văzut și auzit totul ”sub pământ”. Dar ne-am înșelat. Surpriza se numește Jules Verne. Un spațiu de mari dimensiuni este amenajat în forma unui Auditoriu. Aici ai ocazia să trăiești o experiență multisenzorială unică, amplificată de cele mai noi tehnologii audio-vizuale, într-un spațiu în care îți sunt proiectate visele fantastice ale celebrului scriitor. Unele dintre ele au devenit realitate în secolele următoare. Bine lucrat din punct de vedere documentar dar și artistic spectacolul a fost premiat în 2006 cu locul I de către Consiliul Internațional al Muzeelor.
\nCum era de așteptat ideile ingenioase din subteran au fost susținute prin parteneriate și expertiza unor țări cu experiență turistică. Austriecii au oferit sprijinul pentru show-ul ”Magicul Mozart”.

Despre comorile Palmei de Mallorca. Despre unele am scris. Despre cele subterane o facem acum. Căci insula nu este cunoscută doar pentru soare, apă și nisip ci și pentru peșterile din adâncurile sale. Ci mai ales pentru modul în care sunt valorificate pentru turism.
\r\n
Puțini știu că în Palma au fost identificate peste 800 de peșteri care oferă vizitatorilor experiențe unice, memorabile. Dacă porniți spre sud-estul insulei, așa am făcut noi, veți găsi în vecinătatea satului de pescari Porto Cristo, exotica Coves del Drac. Inutil să mai traducem. Săpată în solul calcaros se află o peșteră care se întinde pe 1,6 kilometri. Este renumită pentru privilegiul de a avea cel mai mare lac subteran din... lume. Nu exagerăm, asta spun specialiștii. Lago Martel poartă numele speologului francez care l-a descoperit în 1896. Și doar atât. Întâmplarea fericită a făcut ca pământurile sub care se afla această peșteră să intre în posesia familiei lui Don Petro Caldentey, un alt speolog al vremii. El redescoperă acestă tărâm subteran în martie 1905. Istoria descoperirilor s-ar putea încheia aici. Dar nu s-a întâmplat așa. Localnicii au simțit gustul banului atras de turism iar soluțiile au apărut de unde nu se așteptau.
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5748,5749,5750,5751\"]\r\nFiul exploratorului, Lorenzo Caldentey, proiectează un sistem de iluminat al peșterii care o transformă într-un tărâm de vis. Mai mult a fost creat și un traseu turistic al cărui punct culminant este ”Marea Veneției”. Lacul despre care vorbeam a fost transformat într-o feerie vizuală și muzicală. Din ambarcațiunile care străbat lacul se aud acorduri și interpretări vocale inspirate de muzica lui Mozart. Programul artistic a fost inaugurat în 2010 și a avut un succes fantastic la publicul turistic. Traseul pe care l-am parcurs are o lungime totală de 850 de metri, cu numeroase coborâri și urcări facilitate de scări cu protecție maximă. Luați în calcul încălțăminte antiderapantă deoarece cimentul este alunecos datorită climatului interior.
\r\nPe parcursul rutei sunt programate opriri... tematice în puncte denumite expresiv: 2 martie, Visul unui înger, Paradisul pierdut, Valea Deliciilor, Sala imaginilor sau Palatul imperial. Toate îți procură o mare satisfacție. O altă perspectivă artistică îți este oferită de stalactitele și stalagmitele iluminate multicolor ce contribuie din plin la completarea unei atmosfere magice.
\r\nNe tragem sufletul și credem că am văzut și auzit totul ”sub pământ”. Dar ne-am înșelat. Surpriza se numește Jules Verne. Un spațiu de mari dimensiuni este amenajat în forma unui Auditoriu. Aici ai ocazia să trăiești o experiență multisenzorială unică, amplificată de cele mai noi tehnologii audio-vizuale, într-un spațiu în care îți sunt proiectate visele fantastice ale celebrului scriitor. Unele dintre ele au devenit realitate în secolele următoare. Bine lucrat din punct de vedere documentar dar și artistic spectacolul a fost premiat în 2006 cu locul I de către Consiliul Internațional al Muzeelor.
\r\nCum era de așteptat ideile ingenioase din subteran au fost susținute prin parteneriate și expertiza unor țări cu experiență turistică. Austriecii au oferit sprijinul pentru show-ul ”Magicul Mozart”. Francezii, prin ”La Maison de Jules Verne” din Amiens, s-au implicat cu consultanța la programul ”Vise fantastice”, dedicat temerarului scriitor. Uite, așa fac alții turism din pământ și... calcar!

Dacă o parte din ei ar mai fi strînși de pe drumuri cu măsuri legislative ferme, fără îndoială ar lua drumul fraților Micula, al lui Josef Goshy, ajunși la disperare după ce au văzut câți bani ar fi trebuit să bage pentru a reconstrui fostele structuri de hoteluri cumpărate de la stat.
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5760,5761,5762,5763\"]\r\nNEPTUN: Phoenicia a cumpărat ”Sfânta Treime”
\r\nCea mai vizibilă și cea mai așteptată vânzare s-a petrecut în stațiunea Olimp unde Josef Goshy a reușit să vândă după runde dure de negocieri cu aproximativ 10 milioane de euro (după ce în urmă cu vreo 10 ani cerea 30), Complexul Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere. Ajuns într-o stare dezastruoasă, la o clasificare de o stea, vedeta litoralului românesc cândva, a fost cumpărată de către lanțul Phoenicia, creat și controlat de omul de afaceri Mohammad Murad. Acesta are ambiții mari dar, după cum a dovedit până acum, realizabile. El va investi în complex circa 15 milioane de euro, iar data inaugurării a fost stabilită pentru 1 iunie 2018. După cum a declarat achiziția s-a făcut cu ajutorul Băncii Transilvania iar finanțarea investiției este susținută printr-o sucursală din România a unei bănci americane. După renovare complexul va fi reclasificat la 4 stele și se va numi Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere by Phoenicia. Mohammad Murad deține pe litoral 3.500 de locuri de cazare în mai multe hoteluri în Năvodari, Mamaia, Jupiter, Olimp și Neptun.
\r\nA doua tranzacție și ea la fel de așteptată în Capitala României are ca subiect Lido, hotel istoric, emblemă a perioadei interbelice. Lido a fost proiectat de către arhitectul Ernst Doneaud și a fost inaugurat în luna august 1930. Hotelul a fost preluat tot de grupul controlat de Mohammad Murad. Proprietarul lanțului hotelier Phoenicia, a închiriat hotelul pe 15 ani de la proprietari, cu drept de cumpărare, și pregătește o investiție de peste 5 milioane de euro în lucrări de renovare, pentru a redeschide hotelul în toamna acestui an. „Vreau să reîntorc la vremurile de glorie acest hotel, care a fost multă vreme simbolul Bucureștiului. Vreau să-l readuc pe harta turistică a Bucureștiului” -a declarat Murad. El ar dori să afilieze Lido (ce va avea 119 camere și va activa la un standard de 4 stele plus) la lanțul hotelier al lui Donald Trump. Pâna atunci se va numi Lido by Phoenicia. Lanțul hotelier al actualului președinte american, Trump Hotels, include unități de lux în New York, Las Vegas, Toronto, Panama, Vancouver, Washington, Waikiki, Chicago.
\r\nTANZACȚII la Herculane și Eforie
\r\nFostul hotel Traian, actualmente Carol I, din stațiunea Băile Herculane, a fost scos la vânzare de către proprietari pentru suma de 1,2 milioane de euro. Hotelul (care are 74 de camere și se află în curs de renovare) a fost construit în 1869 de către împăratul Franz Joseph și a fost numit Rudolf, după numele unicului său fiu, iar mai apoi a primit numele Traian. După primul război mondial, hotelul a fost cedat României și a primit numele de hotel Carol. Hotelul a fost folosit până la închiderea în 2005 din cauza degradării. Actualul proprietar a început lucrările de renovare încă din 2011, iar cine va cumpăra clădirea va trebui să continue lucrările de renovare. În toamna lui 2016, Consiliul Local al orașului Băile Herculane a decis să nu-și exercite dreptul de preemțiune ca să cumpere imobilul ce figurează pe lista clădirilor de patrimoniu.
\r\nȘi UCECOM, care este acționar semnificativ la hotelurile Hefaistos din Eforie Nord, respectiv din Covasna s-a hotărât să scoată la vânzare prin licitatie, la pachet, cele două unități. Prețul urmează să fie stabilit în urma unei analize efectuate de către un specialist. Operațiunea va fi avizată de acționarii societății Hefaistos CM. Hefaistos din Eforie Nord este clasificat la 2 stele, deține 202 camere și 404 locuri de cazare. Hotelul din Covasna funcționează la 2 stele, oferă 130 de camere și 288 locuri de cazare, și are o bază proprie de tratament. El este amplasat la 500 de metri de pârtia de schi Covasna.
\r\nBUCUREȘTI: Galaxy are o bibliotecă de sare
\r\nDeși investiția finalizată în această iarnă era planificată pentru viitorii ani grupul austriac A-Heat a accelerat lucrările de dezvoltare la complexul Therme București a zonei Galaxy cu un nou spațiu de 4.000 de metri pătrați. Extinderea zonei Galaxy s-a realizat mai devreme decât planificau dezvoltatorii proiectului, ca urmare a cererii foarte mare a vizitatorilor pentru această zonă. Ea a ajuns azi la o capacitate de 2.000 de persoane simultan. Valoarea investiției se ridică la circa 10 milioane de euro. Printre atracțiile zonei se regăsesc trei saune umede, paturi cu hidromasaj, cu raze infraroșii, dar și o biblioteca de sare. Aceasta are o înălțime de 6 metri, a necesitat 40 de tone de sare de Himalaya pentru a amenaja spațiul care oferă 150 de volume de beletristică și ebook-uri, 14 console Playstation și jocuri. Principalele beneficii ale bibliotecii sunt cromoterapia și aerosolii. Zona dispunde și de o piscină cu cel mai mare poolbar din centrul Therme, cu o capacitate de 80 de locuri. De asemenea, noul spațiu conex corpului Galaxy are un acoperiș complet retractabil, în ambele direcții, cu o suprafață de 800 metri pătrați și cu o greutate de circa 100 de tone.
\r\nOdată cu această extindere, suprafața totală înverzită a complexului a crescut cu peste 10%, iar numărul palmierilor ajunge la 1.400 de arbori, proveniți de pe patru continente. Astfel, Therme București găzduiește cea mai mare plantație de palmieri din Europa. Centrul deține și cea mai mare grădină botanică din România cu peste 800.000 de plante. De asemenea, zona The Palm a fost extinsă cu o terasă având o capacitate de 400 de locuri, o plajă exterioară cu o suprafață de peste 24.000 de metri pătrați și piscină ”Crazy River”. De asemenea zona exclusivistă Elysium a fost extinsă, cu o terasă. Pentru viitor, reprezentanții Therme iau în calcul posibilitatea inaugurării unui hotel în aproprierea complexului, dar și alte extinderi. Therme București, care este amplasat la Balotești, constituie cel mai mare Therme din Europa, construit greenfield, pe un areal de 250.000 de metri pătrați.

La ITB Berlin, unul dintre cele mai mari târguri de travel din lume Ministerul român al Turismului a lansat o aplicație menită să crească vizibilitatea și atractivitatea destinațiilor din țara noastră. Între 8 și 12 martie vizitatorii standului național au avut ocazia să testeze serviciile oferite de ”Explore RO”. Aplicația, disponibilă în limba engleză, este destinată turiștilor din întreaga lume, care iubesc să călătorească chiar și virtual. Cu aceasta ei pot descoperi România și resursele ei: natură, tradiții, cultură, istorie, educație, arte. Aplicația reprezintă, în același timp, un ghid turistic al României, în variantă electronică, al cărei conținut este semnat de Ministerul Turismului. Pe scurt, ”Explore RO” îi arată oricărui turist unde poate să meargă în România și ce tip de experiențe poate să trăiască în țara noastră. ”Explore RO” este disponibilă pentru platformele iOS și Android și este furnizată în mod gratuit de către compania sibiană Eventya, ce are și calitatea de partener al acestui proiect. În ceea ce privește infrastructura tehnică a ghidului turistic mobil al României, acesta a fost construit pe o platformă care rulează pe un sistem cloud, ce permite interconectarea cu alte site-uri web și aplicații turistice. Aplicația va fi actualizată permanent. În viitorul apropiat vor fi dezvoltate variante și în alte limbi de circulație internațională.\n\n
\nPrintre personalitățile cu care s-a întîlnit Ministrul Turismului Mircea-Titus Dobre la ITB Berlin s-au numărat Secretarul General al OMT Taleb Rifai și Directorul General pentru Europa al OMT, Isabel Garana. Rifai, s-a declarat un susținător al României de a deveni un jucător important pe piața turismului. ”Orice succes al dumneavoastră și al României va fi și succesul meu, ca Secretar General și al OMT” - a subliniat acesta.

\nTURDA: Salina e cea mai tare !\n\n
Cel mai fascinant obiectiv turistic subteran din țara noastră - Salina Turda - a primit anul trecut 617.890 de turiști. Cu acest record, cel mai mare din istoria minei, ea a devenit cel mai vizitat obiectiv turistic public din România. Ziua magică a fost în 2016 cea în care a căzut Sfânta Maria când au fost înregistrați peste 8.000 de vizitatori, trafic la care a fost nevoie de temporizarea fluxurilor subterane de turiști - spune Simona Baciu, directorul Salinei Turda.
\nNumărul în creștere al călătorilor i-a determinat pe cei din conducerea salinei să decidă o mărire a spațiului de vizitat, prin reabilitarea minei Iosif. Pentru acest lucru se intenționează obținerea unor fonduri printr-un nou proiect european, noile amenajări presupunând costuri ridicate. Salina Turda, ce a fost modernizată în urma cu câțiva ani cu bani europeni -, oferă spații de joaca pentru copii, un carusel uriaș, zone de sport - minigolf, bowling, biliard, tenis de masă, un lac pe care turiștii se pot plimba cu barca, un amfiteatru pentru spectacole, dar și zone destinate întreținerii sănătății unde oamenii își pot trata rinitele, astmul bronșic, infecțiile respiratorii etc. (ION BADEA)
\nANDREESCU: Maramureșul ca document\n\n
Artistul fotograf se simte bine când scrie cu luminã. Florin Andreescu se numãrã printre cei mai mari ”gurmanzi de luminã” din România. Platoul sãu de creație este concentrat pe Maramureș, o zonã care are ambiția sã-și conserve tradițiile dar și sã se reinventeze. Pe aceste douã tematici a fost organizatã o expoziție la Institutul Cultural Român din București. Împreunã cu Editura Ad Libri, care este business-ul lui de familie, artistul fotograf a oferit în același timp și un film documentar despre ”Maramureș - țarã veche, țarã nouã”. Filmul de 60 de minute (comentariu Dana Ciolcã, lectura Mihai Gruia Sandu, montaj Alexandru Stãnescu), a apãrut pe DVD, în limba românã, cu subtitrare în englezã, francezã, germanã, spaniolã și italianã. La eveniment au participat realizatorii documentarului, cercetãtorii Ana Bârcã și Doina Ișfãnoni etc. Ei au radiografiat Maramureșul zilelor noastre, o lume în care stilul de viațã simplu și formele vechi de culturã coexistã cu modelele și obiceiurile aduse de tinerii care lucreazã în strãinãtate.

\nTHE TELEGRAPH: Dunărea și Transfăgărășanul în Top 25\n\n\nPublicația britanică „The Telegraph“ a selectat într-un top al locurilor din Europa de Est pe care orice om trebuie să le vadă cel puțin o dată în viață și două atracții din România: Delta Dunării respectiv Transfăgărașanul. Potrivit unui studiu recent, tot mai mulți britanici renunță la destinații precum Franța, Spania ori Italia în favoarea celor din Europa de Est. Printre principalele motive se numără costurile accesibile unei astfel de călătorii, dar și nivelul ridicat de siguranță. În acest context, „The Telegraph“ a plasat Delta Dunării pe locul 2, notând: „Al doilea cel mai lung fluviu din Europa – 2.864 de kilometri – își intinde cortina peste litoralul românesc al Mării Negre. Își revarsă sufletul în Rezervația Biosferei Delta Dunării, 2.732 de kilometri de zone umede protejate.“ Pe locul 10 se află Transfăgărașanul, despre care jurnalistul de turism Adrian Bridge scrie: „Nu sunt deloc surprins că, în căutarea celui mai bun drum rutier din lume, Jeremy Clarkson a declarat că l-a găsit în mijlocul României sub forma Transfăgărașanului. Indiferent din ce parte îl privești, ideea liderului comunist Nicolae Ceaușescu este o extraordinară și curajoasă invenție inginerească. (...)

La ITB Berlin, unul dintre cele mai mari târguri de travel din lume Ministerul român al Turismului a lansat o aplicație menită să crească vizibilitatea și atractivitatea destinațiilor din țara noastră. Între 8 și 12 martie vizitatorii standului național au avut ocazia să testeze serviciile oferite de ”Explore RO”. Aplicația, disponibilă în limba engleză, este destinată turiștilor din întreaga lume, care iubesc să călătorească chiar și virtual. Cu aceasta ei pot descoperi România și resursele ei: natură, tradiții, cultură, istorie, educație, arte. Aplicația reprezintă, în același timp, un ghid turistic al României, în variantă electronică, al cărei conținut este semnat de Ministerul Turismului. Pe scurt, ”Explore RO” îi arată oricărui turist unde poate să meargă în România și ce tip de experiențe poate să trăiască în țara noastră. ”Explore RO” este disponibilă pentru platformele iOS și Android și este furnizată în mod gratuit de către compania sibiană Eventya, ce are și calitatea de partener al acestui proiect. În ceea ce privește infrastructura tehnică a ghidului turistic mobil al României, acesta a fost construit pe o platformă care rulează pe un sistem cloud, ce permite interconectarea cu alte site-uri web și aplicații turistice. Aplicația va fi actualizată permanent. În viitorul apropiat vor fi dezvoltate variante și în alte limbi de circulație internațională.\r\n\r\n
\r\nPrintre personalitățile cu care s-a întîlnit Ministrul Turismului Mircea-Titus Dobre la ITB Berlin s-au numărat Secretarul General al OMT Taleb Rifai și Directorul General pentru Europa al OMT, Isabel Garana.

\r\nTURDA: Salina e cea mai tare !\r\n\r\n
Cel mai fascinant obiectiv turistic subteran din țara noastră - Salina Turda - a primit anul trecut 617.890 de turiști. Cu acest record, cel mai mare din istoria minei, ea a devenit cel mai vizitat obiectiv turistic public din România. Ziua magică a fost în 2016 cea în care a căzut Sfânta Maria când au fost înregistrați peste 8.000 de vizitatori, trafic la care a fost nevoie de temporizarea fluxurilor subterane de turiști - spune Simona Baciu, directorul Salinei Turda.
\r\nNumărul în creștere al călătorilor i-a determinat pe cei din conducerea salinei să decidă o mărire a spațiului de vizitat, prin reabilitarea minei Iosif. Pentru acest lucru se intenționează obținerea unor fonduri printr-un nou proiect european, noile amenajări presupunând costuri ridicate. Salina Turda, ce a fost modernizată în urma cu câțiva ani cu bani europeni -, oferă spații de joaca pentru copii, un carusel uriaș, zone de sport - minigolf, bowling, biliard, tenis de masă, un lac pe care turiștii se pot plimba cu barca, un amfiteatru pentru spectacole, dar și zone destinate întreținerii sănătății unde oamenii își pot trata rinitele, astmul bronșic, infecțiile respiratorii etc. (ION BADEA)
\r\nANDREESCU: Maramureșul ca document\r\n\r\n
Artistul fotograf se simte bine când scrie cu luminã. Florin Andreescu se numãrã printre cei mai mari ”gurmanzi de luminã” din România. Platoul sãu de creație este concentrat pe Maramureș, o zonã care are ambiția sã-și conserve tradițiile dar și sã se reinventeze. Pe aceste douã tematici a fost organizatã o expoziție la Institutul Cultural Român din București. Împreunã cu Editura Ad Libri, care este business-ul lui de familie, artistul fotograf a oferit în același timp și un film documentar despre ”Maramureș - țarã veche, țarã nouã”. Filmul de 60 de minute (comentariu Dana Ciolcã, lectura Mihai Gruia Sandu, montaj Alexandru Stãnescu), a apãrut pe DVD, în limba românã, cu subtitrare în englezã, francezã, germanã, spaniolã și italianã. La eveniment au participat realizatorii documentarului, cercetãtorii Ana Bârcã și Doina Ișfãnoni etc. Ei au radiografiat Maramureșul zilelor noastre, o lume în care stilul de viațã simplu și formele vechi de culturã coexistã cu modelele și obiceiurile aduse de tinerii care lucreazã în strãinãtate.

\r\nTHE TELEGRAPH: Dunărea și Transfăgărășanul în Top 25\r\n\r\n\r\nPublicația britanică „The Telegraph“ a selectat într-un top al locurilor din Europa de Est pe care orice om trebuie să le vadă cel puțin o dată în viață și două atracții din România: Delta Dunării respectiv Transfăgărașanul. Potrivit unui studiu recent, tot mai mulți britanici renunță la destinații precum Franța, Spania ori Italia în favoarea celor din Europa de Est. Printre principalele motive se numără costurile accesibile unei astfel de călătorii, dar și nivelul ridicat de siguranță. În acest context, „The Telegraph“ a plasat Delta Dunării pe locul 2, notând: „Al doilea cel mai lung fluviu din Europa – 2.864 de kilometri – își intinde cortina peste litoralul românesc al Mării Negre. Își revarsă sufletul în Rezervația Biosferei Delta Dunării, 2.732 de kilometri de zone umede protejate.“ Pe locul 10 se află Transfăgărașanul, despre care jurnalistul de turism Adrian Bridge scrie: „Nu sunt deloc surprins că, în căutarea celui mai bun drum rutier din lume, Jeremy Clarkson a declarat că l-a găsit în mijlocul României sub forma Transfăgărașanului. Indiferent din ce parte îl privești, ideea liderului comunist Nicolae Ceaușescu este o extraordinară și curajoasă invenție inginerească. (...) În cazul în care ideea ta de Rai este să conduci pe un drum cu serpentine care se întinde pe 80 de kilometri, atunci Transfăgărașanul este ceea ce cauți“ - scrie Bridge.
Pe locul 1 în Top 25 locuri din Europa de Est se află Tallinn (Estonia) iar pe trei Riga (Letonia). Alte aprecieri au fost exprimate pentru Moscova (Rusia), Munții Tatra (Slovacia/Polonia), St. Petersburg (Rusia), Praga (Cehia), Kotor Bay (Muntenegru), Dubrovnik (Croația), Parcul Național Triglav (Slovenia), Budapesta (Ungaria) etc.

\nBUCHAREST: Galaxy, the new investment of Therme
\nThis winter the Austrian A-Heat Group concluded the development works of Therme București Complex, by expanding the Galaxy area with an additional space of 4000 scuare meters. The works started and ended for Galaxy a alot faster than initially projected, due to the massif request from visitors, in such a way that today Galaxy can accomodate almost 2.000 persons simultaneously. The value of the investment is somewhere arround 10 million euro. The attractions of the area include three wet saunas, a salt library with a height of 6 meters. For building the last one 40 tones of Himalaya salt were used, and the space offers 150 books and ebooks as well.\n\n
The expansion of the complex means also moore green space (+10%), the number of palm trees, coming from 4 diffrent continents, reaching 1.400 de arbori. Therme București is the home today of the largest palm trees plantation in Europe. The complex can be now named the largest botanical garden in Romania, hosting over 800.000 plants. The representatives of Therme plan future extensions and think about placing a hotel nearby. Therme București, located in Balotești, some 20 km away from the Capital city of Romania, is the biggest Therme in Europe, built Greenfield, on a total surface of 250.000 square meters.
\nTHE TELEGRAPH: Danube Delta and Transfăgărășan in Top 25\n\n
\nThe Brittish publication „The Telegraph“ selected two Romanian attractions in its top of must see places in Eastern Europe: The Danube Delta in Romania and the Transfăgărașan high altitude scenic road. According to a recent study, more and more brits give up destinations such as France, Spain or Italy in favor of Eastern European countries. Among the main reasons one counts the accesible costs of such a holiday and the high security level. The Telegraph places the Danube Delta on number 2, after Tallinn (Estonia) and before Riga (Letonia), saying: „Europe s second longest river (...) takes its curtain call on the Romanian shore of the Black Sea. It pours out its soul in the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve, 1,055 square miles of protected wetlands where pelicans and herons flap wings.“
\nThe Transfăgărașan road is listed on number 10, and Adrian Bridge writes about it: „ I am not surprised that in his search for the Worlds best driving road Jeremy Clarkson a declared that he found it in the middle of Romania – in the form of the Transfagarasan highway. Whichever way you look at it, the brainchild of Romanias communist-era leader Nicolae Ceausescu is an extraordinary feat of engineering.”
\n+ 2 for PHOENICIA
\nThe Romanian hotel brand Phoenicia counts two more hotel properties. The first one is on the Romanian seaside, in Olimp: The Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere Complex of hotels. The former owner Josef Goshy, had listed the hotels three years ago with 30 million euros, but settled eventually with Mohammad Murad, owner of Phoenicia Group, for 10 million euro. Currently the complex, once the star of Romanian seaside, is downgraded at 1 star only. After the 15 million euros renovation, scheduled to conclude before June 1st, 2018, the new Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere by Phoenicia will have 4 stars.
\nThe second tranzaction is the one of the historic Lido Hotel, once famous in Bucharest. Projected by Ernst Doneaud and opened in August 1930 Lido will be now rented by the current owners, to the group of Mohammad Murad, for the next 15 years. Phoenicia Group prepares a 5 million euro make-over, and a reopening in the fall. Murad would like to affiliate Lido (119 rooms and 4 stars plus rating) to Donald Trump hotels. Till then its name will be Lido by Phoenicia.
\nANDREESCU: Maramureș as a document
\nAn artist photographer is in his realm when writting with light. Florin Andreescu counts among the greatest such artists in Romania. His atelier is the historical region of Maramureș, in northern Romania, an area that has the embition to preserve its traditions but to reinvent itself in the modern world. These are the two themes of the exhibition opened at the Romanian cultural Institute in Bucharest. Together with Ad Libri Publishing House, the family business, the artist offered a 60 minutes documentary: ”Maramureș - old and new”.

March 8th to 12th the vizitors were able to test the services of ”Explore.RO”. The app, available in English, was designed for travellers all over the world, that love to travel even virtually. Through it they can discover Romania and its resources, learning about nature, traditions, culture, history and education, arts etc. The content of the app is basically a travel guide, signed by the Ministry of Tourism. ”Explore RO” is available on iOS and Android and it is free of charge. Designed by the Sibiu based Eventya, it is going to be regularly updated, and for the future offered in other foreign languages as well.\r\n\r\n
At ITB Berlin, the Romanian Ministry of Tourism, Mircea-Titus Dobre, met several personalities, among which, the General Secretary of The World Travel Organization, Taleb Rifai, and the General Director of WTO for Europe, Isabel Garana. Rifai, declared himself a supporter or Romania in its effort of becoming a strong player on the travel market:”Your success will be my success, as a General Secretary of WTO!”
\r\nBUCHAREST: Galaxy, the new investment of Therme
\r\nThis winter the Austrian A-Heat Group concluded the development works of Therme București Complex, by expanding the Galaxy area with an additional space of 4000 scuare meters. The works started and ended for Galaxy a alot faster than initially projected, due to the massif request from visitors, in such a way that today Galaxy can accomodate almost 2.000 persons simultaneously. The value of the investment is somewhere arround 10 million euro. The attractions of the area include three wet saunas, a salt library with a height of 6 meters. For building the last one 40 tones of Himalaya salt were used, and the space offers 150 books and ebooks as well.\r\n\r\n
The expansion of the complex means also moore green space (+10%), the number of palm trees, coming from 4 diffrent continents, reaching 1.400 de arbori. Therme București is the home today of the largest palm trees plantation in Europe. The complex can be now named the largest botanical garden in Romania, hosting over 800.000 plants. The representatives of Therme plan future extensions and think about placing a hotel nearby. Therme București, located in Balotești, some 20 km away from the Capital city of Romania, is the biggest Therme in Europe, built Greenfield, on a total surface of 250.000 square meters.
\r\nTHE TELEGRAPH: Danube Delta and Transfăgărășan in Top 25\r\n\r\n
The Brittish publication „The Telegraph“ selected two Romanian attractions in its top of must see places in Eastern Europe: The Danube Delta in Romania and the Transfăgărașan high altitude scenic road. According to a recent study, more and more brits give up destinations such as France, Spain or Italy in favor of Eastern European countries. Among the main reasons one counts the accesible costs of such a holiday and the high security level. The Telegraph places the Danube Delta on number 2, after Tallinn (Estonia) and before Riga (Letonia), saying: „Europe s second longest river (...) takes its curtain call on the Romanian shore of the Black Sea. It pours out its soul in the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve, 1,055 square miles of protected wetlands where pelicans and herons flap wings.“
\r\nThe Transfăgărașan road is listed on number 10, and Adrian Bridge writes about it: „ I am not surprised that in his search for the Worlds best driving road Jeremy Clarkson a declared that he found it in the middle of Romania – in the form of the Transfagarasan highway. Whichever way you look at it, the brainchild of Romanias communist-era leader Nicolae Ceausescu is an extraordinary feat of engineering.”
\r\n+ 2 for PHOENICIA\r\n\r\n
The Romanian hotel brand Phoenicia counts two more hotel properties. The first one is on the Romanian seaside, in Olimp: The Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere Complex of hotels. The former owner Josef Goshy, had listed the hotels three years ago with 30 million euros, but settled eventually with Mohammad Murad, owner of Phoenicia Group, for 10 million euro. Currently the complex, once the star of Romanian seaside, is downgraded at 1 star only. After the 15 million euros renovation, scheduled to conclude before June 1st, 2018, the new Amfiteatru-Panoramic-Belvedere by Phoenicia will have 4 stars.
\r\nThe second tranzaction is the one of the historic Lido Hotel, once famous in Bucharest. Projected by Ernst Doneaud and opened in August 1930 Lido will be now rented by the current owners, to the group of Mohammad Murad, for the next 15 years. Phoenicia Group prepares a 5 million euro make-over, and a reopening in the fall. Murad would like to affiliate Lido (119 rooms and 4 stars plus rating) to Donald Trump hotels. Till then its name will be Lido by Phoenicia.
\r\nANDREESCU: Maramureș as a document\r\n\r\n
An artist photographer is in his realm when writting with light. Florin Andreescu counts among the greatest such artists in Romania. His atelier is the historical region of Maramureș, in northern Romania, an area that has the embition to preserve its traditions but to reinvent itself in the modern world. These are the two themes of the exhibition opened at the Romanian cultural Institute in Bucharest. Together with Ad Libri Publishing House, the family business, the artist offered a 60 minutes documentary: ”Maramureș - old and new”. The moovie (commentary by Dana Ciolcă, lecture by Mihai Gruia Sandu, make-over Alexandru Stănescu) is in Romanian, with subtitles in English, French, German, Spanish and Italian. The event gathered also the specialists that researched the area (Ana Bârcă, Doina Ișfănoni etc.), people that try to explain the Maramureș of our days, a changing world where the simple traditional lifestyle once known as a rule is trying to survive next to the models and customs that young people working abroad are bringing inside.

Alexandru Stănescu, secretarul general al Uniunii Junilor se află sigur în spatele inițiativei de a ne trimite această lucrare.

Puteți să trăiți experiențe memorabile la fiecare început al lunii mai când are loc la Brașov și împrejurimi Marea sărbătoare a Junilor. Dacă nu aveți timp, urmăriți seria care este tipărită la editura Monitorul Oficial. Aveți multe de aflat din ceea ce scrie Vasile Bideț, președintele Uniunii Junilor, dar veți rămâne fascinați urmărind picturile ori fotografiile de epocă ce vă reamintesc de tradiții încă vii cum sunt: strochitul, marțea cu plăcinte, aruncatu’n țol etc. Colecția este finanțată de către Primăria Municipiului Brașov, semn că totuși banii comunitari se îndreaptă și spre susținerea unor proiecte durabile.

Editura Humanitas își continuă maratonul recuperărilor literare - majoritatea sub formă de jurnale și însemnări, căci asta era moda timpului. Pentru aceasta a conceput și colecția Vintage unde apar periodic cărți despre România, Bucureștiul de altădată sau, cum se întîmplă în cazul de față, în principal despre orașul Galați. Ethel Greening Pantazzi, o canadiancă plină de energie (născută în 1880, în Hamilton-Ontario) este mânată de întâmplare și iubire, transformată în căsătorie, către ”România în lumini și umbre” (1909-1919). Aici în calitate de femeie modernă se întâlnește cu comunități conservatoare în care bărbații sunt prea puțin dispuși să cedeze din teritoriul istoric ocupat și ca atare puțin receptivi la micile revoluții inițiate de femei. Cum a ajuns la Galați? În 1908 îl cunoaște pe Vasile Pantazzi, căpitan al portului Galați care i-a devenit soț după nunta ce a avut loc un an mai târziu. Impresiile acesteia se dovedesc suculente iar observațiile făcute în legătură cu tradițiile românilor sunt cât se poate de măgulitoare. Ethel scrie despre obiceiurile de nuntă, despre paparude, călcatul ursului, ghicitul în palmă, despre Rusalii, Boboteaza, Paștele, Tradițiile de Crăciun și Anul Nou pe care le ”testează” înpreună cu soțul său. Aproximativ jumătate din cele 300 de pagini sunt dedicate luminilor, iar restul redau experiențele triste din timpul primului Război Mondial, când familia a fost nevoită să se retragă la Iași și Odesa.

BUCUREȘTI: GICĂ POPESCU pierde în fața lituanienilor
\r\nProprietarii hotelului Europa Royale din București vor demara în acest an lucrările de construcție pentru un hotel în nordul Capitalei. Investitorii lituanieni, care acum dezvoltă în Centrul Vechi din Capitală și un hotel Hilton Garden Inn, au achiziționat un teren pe bulevardul Dimitrie Pompeiu, unde urmează să dezvolte un nou proiect. El va urma să fie afiliat la Courtyard by Marriott, marcă de 4 stele a grupului Marriott International. Conform informațiilor disponibile lituanienii au semnat un contract de franciză cu Courtyard by Marriott. Unitatea va fi clasificată la 4 stele, va oferi 200-250 de camere dar și un complex cu săli de conferință. Investiția totală este anunțată la nivelul de 18-20 milioane de euro. Marriott International a mai avut un proiect de poziționare pentru acest brand. În 2012, fostul fotbalist Gica Popescu anunța construcția în București a unui hotel de 4 stele Courtyard by Marriott, poziționat în spatele Primăriei Sectorului 1. Proiectul nu a mai fost pus în practică, datorită apariției unor evenimente de business volatile, pe acel teren, construindu-se acum un bloc de locuințe.

Thailandezii intră pe piața hotelieră din România. Lituanienii anunță un viitor Courtyard by Marriott în nordul Capitalei. Frații Micula s-au cam săturat de ”succesele” din businessul turistic iar două hoteluri frumoase din Bran și Turda, alunecă discret pe toboganul vânzărilor.
\r\nOTOPENI: ANGELO se îmbracă THAI
\r\nAustriecii de la Vienna House Bucharest au vândut hotelul Angelo (Copertă) din vecinătatea Aeroportului Internațional Henri Coandă, de la Otopeni. El a fost achiziționat de compania thailandeza U City Public intrarea acesteia reprezentând o premieră pe piața hotelieră din România. Unitatea a fost vândută la pachet cu participațiile deținute de Warimpex, la alte 7 hoteluri din Cehia și Polonia, în schimbul cărora Warimpex va încasa aproximativ 180 milioane de euro. Activele preluate de U City Public reprezintă jumătate din totalul portofoliului de real estate al Warimpex. Warimpex estimează că vânzarea hotelurilor va contribui pozitiv la rezultatul financiar din acest an cu valori cuprinse între 15-20 de milioane de euro.
\r\nVienna House este cel mai mare lanț hotelier independent austriac. Compania va continua să administreze cele 8 hoteluri și după încheierea tranzacției, estimată pentru această vară.
\r\nBUCUREȘTI: GICĂ POPESCU pierde în fața lituanienilor
\r\nProprietarii hotelului Europa Royale din București vor demara în acest an lucrările de construcție pentru un hotel în nordul Capitalei. Investitorii lituanieni, care acum dezvoltă în Centrul Vechi din Capitală și un hotel Hilton Garden Inn, au achiziționat un teren pe bulevardul Dimitrie Pompeiu, unde urmează să dezvolte un nou proiect. El va urma să fie afiliat la Courtyard by Marriott, marcă de 4 stele a grupului Marriott International. Conform informațiilor disponibile lituanienii au semnat un contract de franciză cu Courtyard by Marriott. Unitatea va fi clasificată la 4 stele, va oferi 200-250 de camere dar și un complex cu săli de conferință. Investiția totală este anunțată la nivelul de 18-20 milioane de euro. Marriott International a mai avut un proiect de poziționare pentru acest brand. În 2012, fostul fotbalist Gica Popescu anunța construcția în București a unui hotel de 4 stele Courtyard by Marriott, poziționat în spatele Primăriei Sectorului 1. Proiectul nu a mai fost pus în practică, datorită apariției unor evenimente de business volatile, pe acel teren, construindu-se acum un bloc de locuințe.
\r\nLITORAL: Frații Micula s-au pus pe vânzări
\r\nFrații Ioan și Viorel Micula au scos la vânzare 11 dintre cele 12 hoteluri pe care le dețin pe litoralul românesc, cumpărate la începutul anilor 2000. Cele 11 hoteluri, cu 2.700 de camere, reprezintă, practic, cel mai mare pachet scos vreodată la vânzare de un operator privat de turism din România. Toate sunt clasificate la 2 stele, cu excepția unuia dintre ele, Prahova din stațiunea Neptun, care are 1 stea. Unitățile scoase la vânzare sunt: hotelul Național - 160 camere și Unirea - 176 de camere (stațiunea Mamaia), Banat - 221 camere, Slatina - 225 camere și Craiova - 163 camere (Olimp) și Terra - 302 camere, Caraiman - 242 camere, Clabucet - 242 camere, Prahova - 325 camere, Romanța - 322 camere și Bâlea - 323 camere (Neptun).

După mai bine de 6 ore de zbor aterizăm la 1.000 de kilometri sud de Spania, sub Tropicul Cancerului. Ne mai desparte doar o aruncătură de bumerang de continentul african prima țară tangibilă fiind Marocul.

Insulele Canare, destinația cea mai în vogă lansată în această vară de Christian Tour -, au fost cucerite de spanioli la 1496 și de atunci aparțin acestei țări. Ele au fost reperate încă din antichitate, grecii și romanii fiind familiarizați cu poziția insulelor. Ar fi fost denumite „canare” (în latinã canis, câine) datoritã coloniilor mari de foci ce trãiau cândva aici (\"câini de mare\") - afirmă unii. Numele lor a fost împrumutat unei specii locale canarul galben ciripilor - spun alții. Oricum ar fi ceea ce atrage azi armate de turiști este oferta exotică foarte diversă: plaje unice, cu nisip alb, roșu ori negru, o vegetație luxuriantă asemănătoare prin bogăție cu cele din Hawaii și Galapagos, servicii profesionalizate concentrate în jurul complexelor hoteliere moderne.

LA PALMA - cu ochii pe banane
\r\nMotoarele s-au oprit. Tragem la mal. Ancora a coborât. Ne frecăm la ochi și privim din port spre dealuri acoperite de plantații de bananieri. Prima zi. Coborâm la La Palma care se recomandă ca o insulă vulcanică și neliniștită. Selectăm două atracții turistice ce o fac imbatabilă: Parcul Național Caldera de Taburiente, un crater vulcanic cu diametrul de 8 kilometri și o circumferință de aproximativ 20 de kilometri. Însoțitorul nostru ne pune în brațe informația împreună cu nelipsitul pliant turistic, cum că ne aflăm în cel mai vechi Parc național al Spaniei. Acestuia i se alătură vulcanul Teneguia care a erupt ultima oară în 1971. În drum spre el ne oprim și la cocheta bisericuță Virgin de Las Nieves, iar o oprire la Conception, ne oferă o panoramă superbă asupra orașului de buzunar și portului unde acostează zeci de vase de croazieră săptămânal. Trecem și prin satul El Paso care ne transmite o parte din atmosfera lui medievală. Străbatem kilometri de plantații de bananieri organizate pe trepte aride și stâncoase ”afânate” cu pământ fertil importat din alte țări. După scurt timp ajungem în mica localitate Tezarcote. Pare desprinsă dintr-un basm unde povestitorul a încurcat șirul întâmplărilor. Aici ți se dăruiesc plaje exotice cu nisip negru ca tăciunele, un soare generos, blând și luminos, o promenadă elegantă, Centru de informare turistică și, cum era de așteptat artă urbană îmbinată cu arhitectura străveche a caselor. Se pare că din acest loc a început cucerirea micii insule de către spanioli. Acum e rândul turiștilor.
\r\nTAROUDANT - mama Marakechului
\r\nDupă o zi și o noapte petrecute pe ocean acostăm în portul Agadâr din Maroc. Brusc suntem transbordați în lumea celor 1001 de nopți. Ce să alegem? Fabulosul Marakech, Essaouira sau o așezare mai puțin cunoscută de la poalele munților Atlas -Agadâr? Am optat pentru Taroudant, un orășel a cărui istorie începea acum o mie de ani. Istoricii și arheologii au căzut de acord să-l crediteze ca fiind mai vechi decât arhicunoscutul Marakech. El este considerat și principala sursă de inspirație pentru cei care au construit celebra cetate roz-roșcată. Agadâr este și un port dar și un oraș modern. N-a avut încotro pentru că a fost distrus complet de cutremurul din anii ‘60. Reconstruit din temelii el e ”decorat” cu stațiuni turistice elegante destinate în principal călătorilor străini. O luăm pe șoseaua modernă care se îndreaptă spre Taroudant, supranumit și bijuteria roz, datorită culorilor zidurilor cetății sale. Pentru dezmorțire facem o oprire tradițională la plantațiile de argan ce se derulează pe marginea șoselei. Aici am făcut fotografii cu tema ”Capra în Argan”. Zona - ne spune ghidul - este unică în lume, căci doar în climatul de la poalele munților Atlas, veșnic înzăpeziți pe creste, cresc celebrii copaci. Din fructele lor se obține prețiosul ulei, aurul Marocului. Copacul de argan seamănă cu măslinul dar fructele aduc cu sâmburii uscați de nucă verde. Ajunși la Taroudant ne aventurăm în interiorul medinei unde ne asaltează comercianții cu papucei cu motive berbere (natural sir, natural, hamdmade, mai lipsea să auzim că sunt și eco etc). După care vizităm un atelier-laborator de extragere și prelucrare a prețiosului lichid. Prețurile par mari, dar de aici se pot cumpăra produse cu puritate sută la sută. Ultima escală o facem în piața orășelului Alouvine ex Assarag, acolo unde s-au strâns deja cobrele și dansatorii pentru spectacolele zilnice oferite curioșilor dar mai ales turiștilor străini. Lumina șerpuitoare a apusului ne smulge din atmosfera pitoresc-colonială, conservată cu grijă de autorități, reamintindu-ne că în rada portului Agadâr ne așteaptă nava de croazieră. Mâine e o altă zi.
\r\nLANZAROTE - fachiri printre țepi și spini
\r\nAtingem și debarcăm în Lanzarote. Este cea mai vestică insulă a arhipelagului. În același timp ne aflăm pe prima insula din lume care a fost declarată în anii 1960 Rezervație a Biosferei. Pentru ce? Pentru că aici, și la propriu și la figurat, visezi și vezi totul în... alb și negru. Lanzarote ni se desfășoară ca o insulă vulcanică și încet încet înțelegem exotismul locului. Peisajele sunt spectaculoase iar din cenușa depusă apar deseori plantații de cactuși, culturi de viță de vie (o parte din vinurile de aici au primit cele mai înalte distincții la Concursuri mondiale ale vinului). Trecând pe partea cealaltă a dealurilor aride și negre, registrul culorilor se schimbă rapid. Parcă un vrăjitor a atins plajele și le-a transformat nisipul de la ocean în pudră argintie, în timp ce pe partea cealaltă a drumului e negru cât vezi cu ochii, de la cenușa și lava vulcanică. În zona acesta sunt grupate o parte dintre cele mai luxoase hoteluri cu branduri internaționale. Cel mai vizibil este RIU.
\r\nDar cele mai atractive ”branduri” pe care le deține Lanzarote sunt... cactușii și Cezar Manrique. Legătura dintre cele două este vitală și originală. Totul poartă amprenta arhitectului Manrique, un artist din ”echipa de genii” unde joacă alături de prietenii săi Picasso și Miro. Insula datorează enorm acestui artist. În primul rând șansa de a rămâne autentică. Nimic nu s-a construit aici, în afara stilului spaniol, mai bine zis tradițional canarian. Arhitectul a proiectat câteva spații unicat - în care se îmbină clădiri cu grădini aeriene, terestre ori subterane. Un prim stop îl facem în 1990 când Manrique a proiectat Grădina cactușilor care azi reunește peste 6000 de specii. Chiar la intrare te întâmpină o sculptură uriașă în formă de cactus, un armonios concept de integrare arhitectonică în spațiul vegetal. Peisagistica grădinii e dominată de alei labirintice, mici oaze, cactuși înfloriți și acoperă toate culorile și formele, mori de vânt - modelul Don Quijote - adaptat timpurilor moderne cu cafenea, restaurant, panoramă, bibiotecă, magazin de suveniruri, candelabre de cristal cu... spini și iar cactuși. În Lanzarote, vom mai rămâne puțin și în numărul viitor. Un salut marinăresc din Gran Canaria.

Așa că iată-mă într-o zi ploioasă, în care apa ne-a pătruns parcă până la oase pornind temerară spre Piazza Armerina, un mic sat de pescari aflat nu departe de Agrigento. Nimic din cea ce văzusem până atunci nu m-a pregătit pentru ceea ce a urmat. În gândul meu am binecuvântat ploaia care a rărit numărul vizitatorilor și m-a făcut să mă simt un oaspete privilegiat, având și spațiu dar și timpul necesar să-mi hrănesc sufletul și ochii cu splendoarea locului.\r\n

A fost construită în secolul al III-lea e.n, și se presupune că ar fi aparținut împăratului Maximilianus Herculus și lui Dioclețian ce au folosit-o ca reședință de vânătoare. Un cataclism natural, de care firește nu e străin vulcanul Etna, a făcut ca această clădire să zacă îngropată sub pământ aproape o mie de ani. Datorită progresului unui șantier arheologic în secolul XX au demarat excavările și săpăturile arheologice care au durat mai bine de 30 de ani (1929-1960). Specialiștii au adus la viață numeroase artefacte dar și cele 500 de încăperi a căror valoare istorică și artistică este inestimabilă.

\r\nDe ce se presupune că a fost folosită ca reședință de vânătoare? Pentru că aproape toate încăperile sunt decorate cu mozaicuri ce redau asemenea scene.

Mozaicurile, atât murale cât și de pe pardoseli, redau scene ample de viață din Roma antică, spectacole de circ, peisaje marine și chiar aspecte de curele cu ape termale, scene de vânătoare și, nimic suprinzător, scene erotice. Momentul întâlnirii cu marele mozaic lung de 59 de metri care redă o scenă de vânătoare africană te lasă mut de admirație. Cuvintele pălesc în fața desăvârșirii artistice.

Mi se părea normal ca atunci când voi pune pentru prima dată piciorul pe insula italiană să caut... sursa de inspirație.
\r\nAșa că iată-mă într-o zi ploioasă, în care apa ne-a pătruns parcă până la oase pornind temerară spre Piazza Armerina, un mic sat de pescari aflat nu departe de Agrigento. Nimic din cea ce văzusem până atunci nu m-a pregătit pentru ceea ce a urmat. În gândul meu am binecuvântat ploaia care a rărit numărul vizitatorilor și m-a făcut să mă simt un oaspete privilegiat, având și spațiu dar și timpul necesar să-mi hrănesc sufletul și ochii cu splendoarea locului.
\r\nA fost construită în secolul al III-lea e.n, și se presupune că ar fi aparținut împăratului Maximilianus Herculus și lui Dioclețian ce au folosit-o ca reședință de vânătoare. Un cataclism natural, de care firește nu e străin vulcanul Etna, a făcut ca această clădire să zacă îngropată sub pământ aproape o mie de ani. Datorită progresului unui șantier arheologic în secolul XX au demarat excavările și săpăturile arheologice care au durat mai bine de 30 de ani (1929-1960). Specialiștii au adus la viață numeroase artefacte dar și cele 500 de încăperi a căror valoare istorică și artistică este inestimabilă. De altfel întregul ansamblu, mărturie a spendorii artei romane, face azi parte din patrimoniul mondial UNESCO.
\r\nDacă arhitecții în momentul organizării pentru vizite turistice a acestui palat unicat nu ar fi abordat o soluție originală apelând la construirea unor punți și poduri suspendate ochiului nu i s-ar fi putut oferi panorame generoase cu mozaicurile recondiționate până la cele mai mici detalii.

\r\nÎn acest context Primăria Municipiului Târgu Jiu a lansat ideea constituirii unei asociaţii a oraşelor care au primit, de-a lungul timpului, trofeul “Mărul de Aur” din partea FIJET. Primarul municipiului, Aurel Popescu, a făcut această propunere cu ocazia unei dezbateri organizate la Palatul Administrativ din Târgu Jiu şi care a avut ca scop identificarea unor modalităţi de promovare a oraşului de pe Jiu. Plamen STAREV, secretar general UBJET Bulgaria (membru al Comitetului executiv FIJET, preşedintele comisiei „Golden Apple” (care analizează dosarele de candidatură pentru obţinerea trofeului „Mărul de Aur”), jurnalist la WeekPress Agency, a arătat că inițiativa organelor locale este binevenită. ”Sunt pentru a doua oară la Târgu Jiu. Mă bucur să observ că ”Orașul lui Brâncuși” este promovat susținut ca o destinație importantă a culturii europene. Înainte de a veni aici am vizitat Băile Herculane și vă pot spune că și noi la Plovdiv suntem preocupați să punem în valoare vestigiile romane. Anul trecut am obținut premiul ”Golden Apple” care ne susține în eforturile de promovare a orașului ce a fost declarat pentru 2019 ”Capitală culturală europeană”. Noi, jurnaliștii de travel, credem că este foarte important să nu uităm istoria locurilor și să o reutilizăm pentru a remodela mesajele dominante ale civilizației moderne.

Aeroportul Internațional Henri Coandă a înregistrat în 2016 un trafic de 10,98 milioane de pasageri, 67% din totalul pasagerilor înregistrați în țara noastră. Pe locul secund se află aeroportul din Cluj-Napoca, cu 1,88 milioane de pasageri (11,5%), iar pe trei ”Traian Vuia” din Timișoara, cu 1,16 milioane (7,1%). Transportul internațional are o pondere de 89,1%, (14,6 milioane pasageri), restul fiind călători pe curse interne. Pe segmentul transportului internațional de pasageri, Aeroportul Henri Coandă are o cotă de 69,2%, (10,1 milioane pasageri), fiind urmat de Cluj-Napoca cu 10,8% și de Traian Vuia cu 6,3%.

Odată cu intrarea pe piață, este promovată și o oferta promoțională astfel că zborurile pe rutele amintite încep de la 149 de euro. Ea este valabilă pe întreaga perioadă cuprinsă între 19 mai-13 octombrie 2017. Flota transportatorului croat - formată din 12 avioane -, asigură servicii anuale pentru circa 2 milioane de pasageri.
\r\nCu acest prilej ambasada Croaţiei a găzduit un eveniment ce a reunit personal diplomatic, reprezentanţi ai agenţiilor de turism şi jurnalişti de turism membrii ai FIJET Croaţia şi Fijet România. În cadrul discuţiilor cu conducerea Croatia Airlines s-au conturat propuneri pentru viitoare colaborări pe segmental promovării turistice a ambelor ţări.

\r\nRecord European de ALTITUDINE\r\n\r\nAeroclubul României, împreuna cu Federaţia Aeronautică Română, au finalizat proiectul de stabilire a unui record european de altitudine la salt cu paraşuta. Pe 2 aprilie 2017, Gabriel-Dan Chiriac a efectuat un salt de la 9703 metri, din balonul cu aer cald pilotat de Mihai Ilie şi Mugurel Conta Ionescu, depăşind astfel performanţa de 9319 metri realizată de finlandezul Timo Toivonen la data de 21 aprilie 2013. Gabriel-Dan Chiriac este paraşutist - instructor voluntar în cadrul Aeroclubului României, practică această activitate din anul 1984 şi deţine actualul record national de altitudine la salt cu paraşuta (10431 metri realizat la 12 aprilie 2015). Rezultatul respectiv, deşi superior celui actual, nu a putut fi omologat din motive tehnice. \r\nMAI – A intrat pe piață Croația Airlines
\r\nDin 19 mai compania aeriană Croatia Airlines a lansat zboruri regulate (luni, miercuri, vineri) de la București spre Zagreb, Dubrovnik, Pula, Split, Zadar (ultimele patru cu zbor prin Zagreb). Odată cu intrarea pe piață, este promovată și o oferta promoțională astfel că zborurile pe rutele amintite încep de la 149 de euro. Ea este valabilă pe întreaga perioadă cuprinsă între 19 mai-13 octombrie 2017. Flota transportatorului croat - formată din 12 avioane -, asigură servicii anuale pentru circa 2 milioane de pasageri.
\r\nCu acest prilej ambasada Croaţiei a găzduit un eveniment ce a reunit personal diplomatic, reprezentanţi ai agenţiilor de turism şi jurnalişti de turism membrii ai FIJET Croaţia şi Fijet România. În cadrul discuţiilor cu conducerea Croatia Airlines s-au conturat propuneri pentru viitoare colaborări pe segmental promovării turistice a ambelor ţări.

Touroperatorul ”Paradis - Vacanţe de Vis” a anunțat că va introduce din 18 iunie, primele curse charter interne pentru Litoralul românesc. Astfel turiștii vor avea la dispoziție zboruri către Constanţa din Timişoara, Cluj şi Iaşi. Cursele, operate cu aeronave de 120 de locuri a Blue Air, vor avea loc în fiecare duminică din Timişoara și Cluj-Napoca, iar în fiecare luni, din Iaşi. Aurelian Marin, directorul general al agenției de turism estimează că va oferi în acest an servicii pentru peste 100.000 de turiști pe litoralul românesc, o parte din ei beneficiind de pachetele charter. În plus“Turiștii vor fi preluați de la aeroportul Mihail Kogălniceanu (Constanţa) şi duşi la hotelurile în care sunt cazaţi, cu însoţitor pentru fiecare mijloc de transport. Cei care aleg să meargă la mare cu charterul vor plăti 100 de euro în plus pentru pachetul turistic, care include zbor, cazare şi transfer”. În costul biletului de avion sunt incluse un bagaj de mână de 10 kilograme/persoană şi un bagaj de cală de 25 kilograme/persoană. Dintr-o analiză comparată reiese că transportul cu curse charter pe litoralul românesc de la Timişoara, Cluj sau Iaşi este sub jumătatea consumului făcut cu automobilul. Alt avantaj este că apelând la avion un turist ajunge într-o oră la Constanța, e preluat de la aeroport şi dus la hotel, pe traseu primeşte multe informaţii utile despre evenimentele artistice ce urmează, posibilități de divertisment și entertainment.\n\n\n\nLa acestea se adaugă și lansarea ofertei ”Vino gratis cu avionul la mare”. Turiştii care achiziţionează până la 1 mai sejururi de 7 nopţi prin“Paradis Vacanţe de Vis” pe Litoralul românesc vor beneficia de transport gratuit pe cursele charter. În pachetele de vacanță sunt incluse hoteluri de top de pe litoral, printre care Phoenicia (inclusiv Phoenicia Royal, care va fi inaugurat curând), complexul all inclusive Mera (Venus), Blaxy Resort (Olimp) - a mai declarat Aurelian Marin.\nEXIMTUR - Partener UNIGLOBE\n\n
Compania Eximtur - ce operează cu 28 de agenții proprii și francizate, în 19 orașe din România -, a devenit partener pentru Romînia al rețelei globale de business travel - Uniglobe Travel International. „Afilierea la Uniglobe ne oferă accesul la un sistem internațional mai performant de management al călătoriilor cu scop de afaceri. Deschiderea spre tehnologie de vârf, programe informatice și sisteme de rezervări care optimizează prețuri și tarife, gestionarea mai operativă a solicitărilor clienților, accesul la furnizori atent selectați și validați de rețeaua globală, sunt principalele avantaje ale afilierii” - a declarat Lucia Nora Morariu, CEO Eximtur.
\nDivizia specializată în acordarea de servicii integrate pentru călătorii de afaceri și organizare de evenimente Eximtur Business a înregistrat în 2016 o creștere a vânzărilor de 16% comparativ cu 2015. Acest segment a ajuns să genereze 69% din totalul vânzărilor companiei în anul 2016, și a determinat conducerea Eximtur să adere la o rețea globală de travel management.
\nCHRISTIAN TOUR reia charterele pe Egipt!\n\n\n\n”Țara Piramidelor și a Faraonilor” revine puternic pe lista opțiunilor de vacanță ale turistului român. Hotelurile all inclusive sunt competitive cu cele din Turcia, atracțiile sale turistice (precum piramidele ori marile temple) sunt unice în lume, iar plajele exotice ale Mării Roșii oferă nenumărate posibilități de relaxare. La cererea unui număr mare de turiști români, Christian Tour a anunțat că va relansa din această vară cursele directe spre Hurghada, după o absență de doi ani, transformând destinația în vedeta sezonului vară-toamnă 2017. „Egiptul este o destinație ideală pentru tot timpul anului, se potrivește oricărui tip de turist și se află la doar trei ore de zbor de România, Programul nostru de acum doi ani s-a bucurat de mare succes. Ne așteptăm ca locurile la primele curse charter să se epuizeze într-un timp record” - spune Marius Pandel, CEO Christian Tour. .\n\nAstfel, în perioada 1august - 25 octombrie, Christian Tour estimează că va duce, în vacanță în Egipt, în jur de 4.000-4.500 de turiști români. Regimul curselor charter este de una pe săptămână, cu plecare din București către Hurghada, iar zborul va fi operat de către compania aeriană Blue Air. Încă de pe acum se anticipează că zborurile vor putea fi prelungite și pentru perioada toamnă-iarnă 2017-2018. Vor fi disponibile hoteluri de 3, 4 și 5 stele - în regim de demipensiune sau all inclusive. În urmatoarea perioadă, Christian Tour va relansa, de asemenea, și programul Senior Voyage Egipt, pe care l-a desfășurat și în anul 2015 cu mare succes în rândul turiștilor români de peste 55 ani. Special pentru seniori, pachetele vor include, pe lângă cazare și masă tip demipensiune, și o serie de excursii opționale în cadrul cărora se vor vizita cele mai importante obiective turistice ale Egiptului. \nMARA ANTON

Touroperatorul ”Paradis - Vacanţe de Vis” a anunțat că va introduce din 18 iunie, primele curse charter interne pentru Litoralul românesc. Astfel turiștii vor avea la dispoziție zboruri către Constanţa din Timişoara, Cluj şi Iaşi. Cursele, operate cu aeronave de 120 de locuri a Blue Air, vor avea loc în fiecare duminică din Timişoara și Cluj-Napoca, iar în fiecare luni, din Iaşi. Aurelian Marin, directorul general al agenției de turism estimează că va oferi în acest an servicii pentru peste 100.000 de turiști pe litoralul românesc, o parte din ei beneficiind de pachetele charter. În plus“Turiștii vor fi preluați de la aeroportul Mihail Kogălniceanu (Constanţa) şi duşi la hotelurile în care sunt cazaţi, cu însoţitor pentru fiecare mijloc de transport. Cei care aleg să meargă la mare cu charterul vor plăti 100 de euro în plus pentru pachetul turistic, care include zbor, cazare şi transfer”. În costul biletului de avion sunt incluse un bagaj de mână de 10 kilograme/persoană şi un bagaj de cală de 25 kilograme/persoană. Dintr-o analiză comparată reiese că transportul cu curse charter pe litoralul românesc de la Timişoara, Cluj sau Iaşi este sub jumătatea consumului făcut cu automobilul. Alt avantaj este că apelând la avion un turist ajunge într-o oră la Constanța, e preluat de la aeroport şi dus la hotel, pe traseu primeşte multe informaţii utile despre evenimentele artistice ce urmează, posibilități de divertisment și entertainment.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nLa acestea se adaugă și lansarea ofertei ”Vino gratis cu avionul la mare”. Turiştii care achiziţionează până la 1 mai sejururi de 7 nopţi prin“Paradis Vacanţe de Vis” pe Litoralul românesc vor beneficia de transport gratuit pe cursele charter. În pachetele de vacanță sunt incluse hoteluri de top de pe litoral, printre care Phoenicia (inclusiv Phoenicia Royal, care va fi inaugurat curând), complexul all inclusive Mera (Venus), Blaxy Resort (Olimp) - a mai declarat Aurelian Marin.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nEXIMTUR - Partener UNIGLOBE\r\n\r\n
Compania Eximtur - ce operează cu 28 de agenții proprii și francizate, în 19 orașe din România -, a devenit partener pentru Romînia al rețelei globale de business travel - Uniglobe Travel International. „Afilierea la Uniglobe ne oferă accesul la un sistem internațional mai performant de management al călătoriilor cu scop de afaceri. Deschiderea spre tehnologie de vârf, programe informatice și sisteme de rezervări care optimizează prețuri și tarife, gestionarea mai operativă a solicitărilor clienților, accesul la furnizori atent selectați și validați de rețeaua globală, sunt principalele avantaje ale afilierii” - a declarat Lucia Nora Morariu, CEO Eximtur.
\r\nDivizia specializată în acordarea de servicii integrate pentru călătorii de afaceri și organizare de evenimente Eximtur Business a înregistrat în 2016 o creștere a vânzărilor de 16% comparativ cu 2015. Acest segment a ajuns să genereze 69% din totalul vânzărilor companiei în anul 2016, și a determinat conducerea Eximtur să adere la o rețea globală de travel management.
\r\nCHRISTIAN TOUR reia charterele pe Egipt!\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n”Țara Piramidelor și a Faraonilor” revine puternic pe lista opțiunilor de vacanță ale turistului român. Hotelurile all inclusive sunt competitive cu cele din Turcia, atracțiile sale turistice (precum piramidele ori marile temple) sunt unice în lume, iar plajele exotice ale Mării Roșii oferă nenumărate posibilități de relaxare. La cererea unui număr mare de turiști români, Christian Tour a anunțat că va relansa din această vară cursele directe spre Hurghada, după o absență de doi ani, transformând destinația în vedeta sezonului vară-toamnă 2017. „Egiptul este o destinație ideală pentru tot timpul anului, se potrivește oricărui tip de turist și se află la doar trei ore de zbor de România, Programul nostru de acum doi ani s-a bucurat de mare succes.

Zborurile vor avea trei frecvențe săptămânale (în zilele de marți, joi și duminică). Blue Air va atinge în această vară un total de 6 rute noi lansate de la Iași (Florența, Glasgow, Milano, Munchen, Torino, Valencia). Ce a subliniat cu ocazia anunțului făcut Directorul General Blue Air, Gheorghe Răcaru! „ 5 milioane de pasageri vor călători anul acesta cu Blue Air și vor beneficia de zboruri confortabile, sigure, la cele mai avantajoase prețuri. Ne bucurăm să putem sprijini dezvoltarea economică a orașului Iași prin introducerea noilor rute ce vor susține mediul de afaceri, turismul local și comunitățile de români care trăiesc în străinătate. Dinamica dezvoltării Aeroportului Internațional Iași a trecut deja într-o nouă etapă și a făcut posibilă conectarea Iașului cu orașe europene importante”. La rândul său conducerea Aeroportului Internațional Iași a declarat că: ”Munchen, ce deține singurul aeroport de 5 stele din Europa, este o destinație extrem de solicitată de mediul de afaceri din orașul nostru și foarte importantă pentru orizontul investitiilor străine în Moldova”. (ION BADEA).\r\n\r\n\r\nCU APROAPE UN SFERT MAI MULT
\r\nNumărul pasagerilor care au tranzitat aeroporturile din România a crescut anul trecut cu 23,5%, până la 16,39 milioane de pasageri, potrivit datelor publicate de către INS. Aeroportul Internațional Henri Coandă a înregistrat în 2016 un trafic de 10,98 milioane de pasageri, 67% din totalul pasagerilor înregistrați în țara noastră. Pe locul secund se află aeroportul din Cluj-Napoca, cu 1,88 milioane de pasageri (11,5%), iar pe trei ”Traian Vuia” din Timișoara, cu 1,16 milioane (7,1%). Transportul internațional are o pondere de 89,1%, (14,6 milioane pasageri), restul fiind călători pe curse interne. Pe segmentul transportului internațional de pasageri, Aeroportul Henri Coandă are o cotă de 69,2%, (10,1 milioane pasageri), fiind urmat de Cluj-Napoca cu 10,8% și de Traian Vuia cu 6,3%.
\r\n\r\nRecord European de ALTITUDINE\r\n\r\nAeroclubul României, împreuna cu Federaţia Aeronautică Română, au finalizat proiectul de stabilire a unui record european de altitudine la salt cu paraşuta. Pe 2 aprilie 2017, Gabriel-Dan Chiriac a efectuat un salt de la 9703 metri, din balonul cu aer cald pilotat de Mihai Ilie şi Mugurel Conta Ionescu, depăşind astfel performanţa de 9319 metri realizată de finlandezul Timo Toivonen la data de 21 aprilie 2013. Gabriel-Dan Chiriac este paraşutist - instructor voluntar în cadrul Aeroclubului României, practică această activitate din anul 1984 şi deţine actualul record national de altitudine la salt cu paraşuta (10431 metri realizat la 12 aprilie 2015). Rezultatul respectiv, deşi superior celui actual, nu a putut fi omologat din motive tehnice. \r\nMAI – A intrat pe piață Croația Airlines\r\n\r\n
Din 19 mai compania aeriană Croatia Airlines a lansat zboruri regulate (luni, miercuri, vineri) de la București spre Zagreb, Dubrovnik, Pula, Split, Zadar (ultimele patru cu zbor prin Zagreb). Odată cu intrarea pe piață, este promovată și o oferta promoțională astfel că zborurile pe rutele amintite încep de la 149 de euro. Ea este valabilă pe întreaga perioadă cuprinsă între 19 mai-13 octombrie 2017. Flota transportatorului croat - formată din 12 avioane -, asigură servicii anuale pentru circa 2 milioane de pasageri.
\r\nCu acest prilej ambasada Croaţiei a găzduit un eveniment ce a reunit personal diplomatic, reprezentanţi ai agenţiilor de turism şi jurnalişti de turism membrii ai FIJET Croaţia şi Fijet România. În cadrul discuţiilor cu conducerea Croatia Airlines s-au conturat propuneri pentru viitoare colaborări pe segmental promovării turistice a ambelor ţări.

Visăm că plutim pe valurile Oceanului Atlantic, cu o navă de croazieră, spre exoticele Insule Canare. Visăm? Se pare că nu!\n\n
După mai bine de 6 ore de zbor aterizăm la 1.000 de kilometri sud de Spania, sub Tropicul Cancerului. Ne mai desparte doar o aruncătură de bumerang de continentul african prima țară tangibilă fiind Marocul. Obosiți, dar mulțumiți, mai urmăm instructajul căpitanului după care adormim adânc, în una din cabinele vasului. În somn informațiile se derulează pe ”pilot automat”. Insulele Canare, destinația cea mai în vogă lansată în această vară de Christian Tour -, au fost cucerite de spanioli la 1496 și de atunci aparțin acestei țări. Ele au fost reperate încă din antichitate, grecii și romanii fiind familiarizați cu poziția insulelor. Ar fi fost denumite „canare” (în latinã canis, câine) datoritã coloniilor mari de foci ce trãiau cândva aici (\"câini de mare\") - afirmă unii. Numele lor a fost împrumutat unei specii locale canarul galben ciripilor - spun alții. Oricum ar fi ceea ce atrage azi armate de turiști este oferta exotică foarte diversă: plaje unice, cu nisip alb, roșu ori negru, o vegetație luxuriantă asemănătoare prin bogăție cu cele din Hawaii și Galapagos, servicii profesionalizate concentrate în jurul complexelor hoteliere moderne. Și desigur umbrele amintirii celui mai ilustru vizitator al Gran Canaria - Cristofor Columb. Are dedicatã aici și o Casã memorialã muzeu (Casa de colon) în care se pare cã a locuit în timpul descoperirilor sale.\n\n
\nLA PALMA - cu ochii pe banane
\nMotoarele s-au oprit. Tragem la mal. Ancora a coborât. Ne frecăm la ochi și privim din port spre dealuri acoperite de plantații de bananieri. Prima zi. Coborâm la La Palma care se recomandă ca o insulă vulcanică și neliniștită. Selectăm două atracții turistice ce o fac imbatabilă: Parcul Național Caldera de Taburiente, un crater vulcanic cu diametrul de 8 kilometri și o circumferință de aproximativ 20 de kilometri. Însoțitorul nostru ne pune în brațe informația împreună cu nelipsitul pliant turistic, cum că ne aflăm în cel mai vechi Parc național al Spaniei. Acestuia i se alătură vulcanul Teneguia care a erupt ultima oară în 1971. În drum spre el ne oprim și la cocheta bisericuță Virgin de Las Nieves, iar o oprire la Conception, ne oferă o panoramă superbă asupra orașului de buzunar și portului unde acostează zeci de vase de croazieră săptămânal. Trecem și prin satul El Paso care ne transmite o parte din atmosfera lui medievală. Străbatem kilometri de plantații de bananieri organizate pe trepte aride și stâncoase ”afânate” cu pământ fertil importat din alte țări. După scurt timp ajungem în mica localitate Tezarcote. Pare desprinsă dintr-un basm unde povestitorul a încurcat șirul întâmplărilor. Aici ți se dăruiesc plaje exotice cu nisip negru ca tăciunele, un soare generos, blând și luminos, o promenadă elegantă, Centru de informare turistică și, cum era de așteptat artă urbană îmbinată cu arhitectura străveche a caselor. Se pare că din acest loc a început cucerirea micii insule de către spanioli. Acum e rândul turiștilor.

\nDupă o zi și o noapte petrecute pe ocean acostăm în portul Agadâr din Maroc. Brusc suntem transbordați în lumea celor 1001 de nopți. Ce să alegem? Fabulosul Marakech, Essaouira sau o așezare mai puțin cunoscută de la poalele munților Atlas -Agadâr? Am optat pentru Taroudant, un orășel a cărui istorie începea acum o mie de ani. Istoricii și arheologii au căzut de acord să-l crediteze ca fiind mai vechi decât arhicunoscutul Marakech. El este considerat și principala sursă de inspirație pentru cei care au construit celebra cetate roz-roșcată. Agadâr este și un port dar și un oraș modern. N-a avut încotro pentru că a fost distrus complet de cutremurul din anii ‘60. Reconstruit din temelii el e ”decorat” cu stațiuni turistice elegante destinate în principal călătorilor străini. O luăm pe șoseaua modernă care se îndreaptă spre Taroudant, supranumit și bijuteria roz, datorită culorilor zidurilor cetății sale. Pentru dezmorțire facem o oprire tradițională la plantațiile de argan ce se derulează pe marginea șoselei. Aici am făcut fotografii cu tema ”Capra în Argan”. Zona - ne spune ghidul - este unică în lume, căci doar în climatul de la poalele munților Atlas, veșnic înzăpeziți pe creste, cresc celebrii copaci. Din fructele lor se obține prețiosul ulei, aurul Marocului. Copacul de argan seamănă cu măslinul dar fructele aduc cu sâmburii uscați de nucă verde. Ajunși la Taroudant ne aventurăm în interiorul medinei unde ne asaltează comercianții cu papucei cu motive berbere (natural sir, natural, hamdmade, mai lipsea să auzim că sunt și eco etc). După care vizităm un atelier-laborator de extragere și prelucrare a prețiosului lichid. Prețurile par mari, dar de aici se pot cumpăra produse cu puritate sută la sută. Ultima escală o facem în piața orășelului Alouvine ex Assarag, acolo unde s-au strâns deja cobrele și dansatorii pentru spectacolele zilnice oferite curioșilor dar mai ales turiștilor străini. Lumina șerpuitoare a apusului ne smulge din atmosfera pitoresc-colonială, conservată cu grijă de autorități, reamintindu-ne că în rada portului Agadâr ne așteaptă nava de croazieră. Mâine e o altă zi.
\nLANZAROTE - fachiri printre țepi și spini
\nAtingem și debarcăm în Lanzarote. Este cea mai vestică insulă a arhipelagului. În același timp ne aflăm pe prima insula din lume care a fost declarată în anii 1960 Rezervație a Biosferei. Pentru ce? Pentru că aici, și la propriu și la figurat, visezi și vezi totul în... alb și negru. Lanzarote ni se desfășoară ca o insulă vulcanică și încet încet înțelegem exotismul locului. Peisajele sunt spectaculoase iar din cenușa depusă apar deseori plantații de cactuși, culturi de viță de vie (o parte din vinurile de aici au primit cele mai înalte distincții la Concursuri mondiale ale vinului). Trecând pe partea cealaltă a dealurilor aride și negre, registrul culorilor se schimbă rapid. Parcă un vrăjitor a atins plajele și le-a transformat nisipul de la ocean în pudră argintie, în timp ce pe partea cealaltă a drumului e negru cât vezi cu ochii, de la cenușa și lava vulcanică. În zona acesta sunt grupate o parte dintre cele mai luxoase hoteluri cu branduri internaționale. Cel mai vizibil este RIU.
\nDar cele mai atractive ”branduri” pe care le deține Lanzarote sunt... cactușii și Cezar Manrique. Legătura dintre cele două este vitală și originală. Totul poartă amprenta arhitectului Manrique, un artist din ”echipa de genii” unde joacă alături de prietenii săi Picasso și Miro. Insula datorează enorm acestui artist. În primul rând șansa de a rămâne autentică. Nimic nu s-a construit aici, în afara stilului spaniol, mai bine zis tradițional canarian. Arhitectul a proiectat câteva spații unicat - în care se îmbină clădiri cu grădini aeriene, terestre ori subterane. Un prim stop îl facem în 1990 când Manrique a proiectat Grădina cactușilor care azi reunește peste 6000 de specii. Chiar la intrare te întâmpină o sculptură uriașă în formă de cactus, un armonios concept de integrare arhitectonică în spațiul vegetal. Peisagistica grădinii e dominată de alei labirintice, mici oaze, cactuși înfloriți și acoperă toate culorile și formele, mori de vânt - modelul Don Quijote - adaptat timpurilor moderne cu cafenea, restaurant, panoramă, bibiotecă, magazin de suveniruri, candelabre de cristal cu... spini și iar cactuși. În Lanzarote, vom mai rămâne puțin și în numărul viitor. Un salut marinăresc din Gran Canaria.

\r\nMotoarele s-au oprit. Tragem la mal. Ancora a coborât. Ne frecăm la ochi și privim din port spre dealuri acoperite de plantații de bananieri. Prima zi. Coborâm la La Palma care se recomandă ca o insulă vulcanică și neliniștită. Selectăm două atracții turistice ce o fac imbatabilă: Parcul Național Caldera de Taburiente, un crater vulcanic cu diametrul de 8 kilometri și o circumferință de aproximativ 20 de kilometri. Însoțitorul nostru ne pune în brațe informația împreună cu nelipsitul pliant turistic, cum că ne aflăm în cel mai vechi Parc național al Spaniei.

Lituanienii anunță un viitor Courtyard by Marriott în nordul Capitalei. Frații Micula s-au cam săturat de ”succesele” din businessul turistic iar două hoteluri frumoase din Bran și Turda, alunecă discret pe toboganul vânzărilor.\n\n
\nOTOPENI: ANGELO se îmbracă THAI
\nAustriecii de la Vienna House Bucharest au vândut hotelul Angelo (Copertă) din vecinătatea Aeroportului Internațional Henri Coandă, de la Otopeni. El a fost achiziționat de compania thailandeza U City Public intrarea acesteia reprezentând o premieră pe piața hotelieră din România. Unitatea a fost vândută la pachet cu participațiile deținute de Warimpex, la alte 7 hoteluri din Cehia și Polonia, în schimbul cărora Warimpex va încasa aproximativ 180 milioane de euro. Activele preluate de U City Public reprezintă jumătate din totalul portofoliului de real estate al Warimpex. Warimpex estimează că vânzarea hotelurilor va contribui pozitiv la rezultatul financiar din acest an cu valori cuprinse între 15-20 de milioane de euro.\n\n
Vienna House este cel mai mare lanț hotelier independent austriac. Compania va continua să administreze cele 8 hoteluri și după încheierea tranzacției, estimată pentru această vară.

BUCUREȘTI: GICĂ POPESCU pierde în fața lituanienilor
\nProprietarii hotelului Europa Royale din București vor demara în acest an lucrările de construcție pentru un hotel în nordul Capitalei. Investitorii lituanieni, care acum dezvoltă în Centrul Vechi din Capitală și un hotel Hilton Garden Inn, au achiziționat un teren pe bulevardul Dimitrie Pompeiu, unde urmează să dezvolte un nou proiect. El va urma să fie afiliat la Courtyard by Marriott, marcă de 4 stele a grupului Marriott International. Conform informațiilor disponibile lituanienii au semnat un contract de franciză cu Courtyard by Marriott. Unitatea va fi clasificată la 4 stele, va oferi 200-250 de camere dar și un complex cu săli de conferință. Investiția totală este anunțată la nivelul de 18-20 milioane de euro. Marriott International a mai avut un proiect de poziționare pentru acest brand. În 2012, fostul fotbalist Gica Popescu anunța construcția în București a unui hotel de 4 stele Courtyard by Marriott, poziționat în spatele Primăriei Sectorului 1. Proiectul nu a mai fost pus în practică, datorită apariției unor evenimente de business volatile, pe acel teren, construindu-se acum un bloc de locuințe.
\nLITORAL: Frații Micula s-au pus pe vânzări
\nFrații Ioan și Viorel Micula au scos la vânzare 11 dintre cele 12 hoteluri pe care le dețin pe litoralul românesc, cumpărate la începutul anilor 2000. Cele 11 hoteluri, cu 2.700 de camere, reprezintă, practic, cel mai mare pachet scos vreodată la vânzare de un operator privat de turism din România. Toate sunt clasificate la 2 stele, cu excepția unuia dintre ele, Prahova din stațiunea Neptun, care are 1 stea. Unitățile scoase la vânzare sunt: hotelul Național - 160 camere și Unirea - 176 de camere (stațiunea Mamaia), Banat - 221 camere, Slatina - 225 camere și Craiova - 163 camere (Olimp) și Terra - 302 camere, Caraiman - 242 camere, Clabucet - 242 camere, Prahova - 325 camere, Romanța - 322 camere și Bâlea - 323 camere (Neptun).

\nVânt de tranzacții la Bran și Turda\nUnul dintre cele mai selecte unități de cazare ce funcționa în zona Bran - La Dolce Vita -, a fost închisă și scoasă la vânzare. Proprietarii - o firmă cu acționari israelieni, cer pentru acesta 1,4 milioane de euro. Hotelul, clasificat la 3 stele a intrat în circuitul turistic în urmă cu circa 10 ani. Cum el nu s-a dovedit rentabil (cu un grad de ocupare de circa 40%, nu a putut fi deturnat un credit bancar în derulare) firma contractoare a intrat în insolvență, ulterior în faliment.

Într-o situație apropiată se află și unul dintre puținele hoteluri tematice din țara noastră.

Thailandezii intră pe piața hotelieră din România. Lituanienii anunță un viitor Courtyard by Marriott în nordul Capitalei. Frații Micula s-au cam săturat de ”succesele” din businessul turistic iar două hoteluri frumoase din Bran și Turda, alunecă discret pe toboganul vânzărilor.\r\n\r\n
\r\nOTOPENI: ANGELO se îmbracă THAI
\r\nAustriecii de la Vienna House Bucharest au vândut hotelul Angelo (Copertă) din vecinătatea Aeroportului Internațional Henri Coandă, de la Otopeni. El a fost achiziționat de compania thailandeza U City Public intrarea acesteia reprezentând o premieră pe piața hotelieră din România. Unitatea a fost vândută la pachet cu participațiile deținute de Warimpex, la alte 7 hoteluri din Cehia și Polonia, în schimbul cărora Warimpex va încasa aproximativ 180 milioane de euro. Activele preluate de U City Public reprezintă jumătate din totalul portofoliului de real estate al Warimpex. Warimpex estimează că vânzarea hotelurilor va contribui pozitiv la rezultatul financiar din acest an cu valori cuprinse între 15-20 de milioane de euro.\r\n\r\n
Vienna House este cel mai mare lanț hotelier independent austriac. Compania va continua să administreze cele 8 hoteluri și după încheierea tranzacției, estimată pentru această vară.

BUCUREȘTI: GICĂ POPESCU pierde în fața lituanienilor
\r\nProprietarii hotelului Europa Royale din București vor demara în acest an lucrările de construcție pentru un hotel în nordul Capitalei. Investitorii lituanieni, care acum dezvoltă în Centrul Vechi din Capitală și un hotel Hilton Garden Inn, au achiziționat un teren pe bulevardul Dimitrie Pompeiu, unde urmează să dezvolte un nou proiect. El va urma să fie afiliat la Courtyard by Marriott, marcă de 4 stele a grupului Marriott International. Conform informațiilor disponibile lituanienii au semnat un contract de franciză cu Courtyard by Marriott. Unitatea va fi clasificată la 4 stele, va oferi 200-250 de camere dar și un complex cu săli de conferință. Investiția totală este anunțată la nivelul de 18-20 milioane de euro. Marriott International a mai avut un proiect de poziționare pentru acest brand. În 2012, fostul fotbalist Gica Popescu anunța construcția în București a unui hotel de 4 stele Courtyard by Marriott, poziționat în spatele Primăriei Sectorului 1. Proiectul nu a mai fost pus în practică, datorită apariției unor evenimente de business volatile, pe acel teren, construindu-se acum un bloc de locuințe.

Toate sunt clasificate la 2 stele, cu excepția unuia dintre ele, Prahova din stațiunea Neptun, care are 1 stea. Unitățile scoase la vânzare sunt: hotelul Național - 160 camere și Unirea - 176 de camere (stațiunea Mamaia), Banat - 221 camere, Slatina - 225 camere și Craiova - 163 camere (Olimp) și Terra - 302 camere, Caraiman - 242 camere, Clabucet - 242 camere, Prahova - 325 camere, Romanța - 322 camere și Bâlea - 323 camere (Neptun).

Alexandru Stănescu, secretarul general al Uniunii Junilor se află sigur în spatele inițiativei de a ne trimite această lucrare. După cum am aflat este prima apariție dintr-o serie de 6 albume - ediții limitate -, ce urmează să apară în următorii ani. Despre Șchei și Juni nu are rost să vă povestim. Puteți să trăiți experiențe memorabile la fiecare început al lunii mai când are loc la Brașov și împrejurimi Marea sărbătoare a Junilor. Dacă nu aveți timp, urmăriți seria care este tipărită la editura Monitorul Oficial. Aveți multe de aflat din ceea ce scrie Vasile Bideț, președintele Uniunii Junilor, dar veți rămâne fascinați urmărind picturile ori fotografiile de epocă ce vă reamintesc de tradiții încă vii cum sunt: strochitul, marțea cu plăcinte, aruncatu’n țol etc. Colecția este finanțată de către Primăria Municipiului Brașov, semn că totuși banii comunitari se îndreaptă și spre susținerea unor proiecte durabile.

Editura Humanitas își continuă maratonul recuperărilor literare - majoritatea sub formă de jurnale și însemnări, căci asta era moda timpului. Pentru aceasta a conceput și colecția Vintage unde apar periodic cărți despre România, Bucureștiul de altădată sau, cum se întîmplă în cazul de față, în principal despre orașul Galați. Ethel Greening Pantazzi, o canadiancă plină de energie (născută în 1880, în Hamilton-Ontario) este mânată de întâmplare și iubire, transformată în căsătorie, către ”România în lumini și umbre” (1909-1919). Aici în calitate de femeie modernă se întâlnește cu comunități conservatoare în care bărbații sunt prea puțin dispuși să cedeze din teritoriul istoric ocupat și ca atare puțin receptivi la micile revoluții inițiate de femei. Cum a ajuns la Galați? În 1908 îl cunoaște pe Vasile Pantazzi, căpitan al portului Galați care i-a devenit soț după nunta ce a avut loc un an mai târziu. Impresiile acesteia se dovedesc suculente iar observațiile făcute în legătură cu tradițiile românilor sunt cât se poate de măgulitoare. Ethel scrie despre obiceiurile de nuntă, despre paparude, călcatul ursului, ghicitul în palmă, despre Rusalii, Boboteaza, Paștele, Tradițiile de Crăciun și Anul Nou pe care le ”testează” înpreună cu soțul său. Aproximativ jumătate din cele 300 de pagini sunt dedicate luminilor, iar restul redau experiențele triste din timpul primului Război Mondial, când familia a fost nevoită să se retragă la Iași și Odesa.

El a strins la Bucuresti, intre 20 si 23 aprilie, creatori de opere cinetice multimedia. Scoli si firme specializate din 9 tari (Austria, Finlanda,Germania, Ungaria, Slovacia, Cehia, Polonia, Franta, respectiv Romania) au transformat un miez urban al Capitalei in zona pietonala - pe Calea Victoriei, intre BCU si Splaiul Independentei -, intr-un spatiu asediat de lumini. De la Biblioteca Centrala Universitara, la Muzeul National de Arta al Romaniei si Parcul Kretulescu, Palatul Telefoanelor, Teatrul Odeon, Cercul Militar, Grand Hotel du Boulevard si Novotel, lumina a fost ”actorul” principal. Cladirile au fost ”imbracate” de 22 deinstalatii artistice ce s-au exprimat pe o ”scena” de 7000 metri patrati. Festivalul luminilor a fost ca de obicei organizat de catre Primaria Municipiului Bucuresti prin ARCUB iar sutele de mii de bucuresteni dar si turisti straini (ce-i drept mai putini decat ne dorim) dovedesc ca acesta are impact la public.

\r\n\r\nMaria Nicolau este pasionată de fotografie și de exoticul fiecărei destinații în care ajunge, de magia și diversitatea acestei lumi. La mai puțin de 30 de ani, a călătorit deja în peste 35 de țări, iar destinațiile ei preferate sunt India, Bali și Bahamas.\r\n\r\nExpoziția de fotografie pornește de la conceptul de Wanderlust, adică impulsul irezistibil de a călători și de a descoperi lumea. Wander înseamnă pentru blogger, descoperirea, explorarea și vizitarea întregii lumi: ”Există atâtea locuri, atâta diversitate și complexitate pe acest Pământ care merită explorate și apreciate. Eu percep această planetă ca pe un loc de joacă, o grădină a eden-ului, un cadou pentru noi oamenii pentru a avea experiențe cât mai vaste și mai frumoase în această viață”. Lust înseamnă dorința pură, pasiunea și visarea, care vin de undeva din inconștient, o dorință a sufletului. ”Acestea împreună sunt un concept, o senzație pe care o simțim tot mai mulți dintre noi. Visăm, citim, ne uităm la poze și așa ne hrănim visele, apoi acționăm și ajungem să le realizăm”, mărturisește Maria Nicolau. Titlul expoziției are la bază un concept reinventat care se bucură de o mare popularitate în țările vestice.\r\n\r\n”Wanderlust” aduce pentru publicul vizat nu doar fragmente din călătoriile spirituale ale Mariei Nicolau, imagini fotografice, ci și povești despre oameni și locuri, despre pasiune și visuri. Proiectul constă într-o serie de evenimente dinamice, expoziție de fotografie și workshop pentru pasionații de yoga și călătorii. Expoziția propune publicului 3 zone reprezentând destinațiile tradiționale pentru călătoriile ei spirituale.\r\n\r\nFiecare loc va avea o poveste spusă într-un decor individual, cu elemente specifice fiecărei zone: Bali, India și Bahamas. Expoziția de la Qreator by IQOS își propune să aducă experiențele și trăirile surprinse de Maria Nicolau și transmise pe rețelele de socializare din mediul online în offline alături de publicul ei. @myexoticdream este contul său de Instagram, un jurnal fotografic al experiențelor, destinațiilor exotice, poveștilor din călătorii unde peste 10 000 de followeri îi sunt alături zi de zi. ”Vă îndemn ca prin acest eveniment să ne hrănim sentimentul de wanderlust, să ne lăsăm inspirați, să visăm grandios și să experimentăm viața prin descoperire exterioară și interioară. Pentru că doar visând ne putem realiza cele mai mari dorințe” - scrie Maria Nicolau.

Asta nu pentru că i-ar despărți bariere culturale și sociale ci pentru că pur și simplu proiectul lui Alex, susținut de proprietari, nu ar fi devenit realizabil aici, pe Valea Doftanei. Chef Alex, este Alexandru Dumitru un tip interesant căruia în mod sigur îi plac provocările culinare. A plecat să lucreze în străinătate ”tocmai pentru că voiam să mă dezvolt profesional și să călătoresc”. A avut ambiția dar și șansa de a lucra în ”bucătării cu stele Michelin”, mai întâi la Berlin (Waldorf Astoria, Les Soliste by Pierre Gagnaire), după care a luat drumul Californiei unde a descoperit o parte din lumea Zagat a gastronomiei. ”Los Angeles și Nappa Valley au fost stațiile în care m-am oprit. Experiența de la Auberge du Soleil (Nappa) a fost sus de tot. Bucătarul de la care am furat cel mai mult rămâne Robert Curry. Oamenii din breaslă m-au impresionat, se comportă cu modestie rară. În America am observat că toți bucătarii sunt deschiși să dăruiască, să te învețe cât mai mult și asta contat extrem de mult în formarea mea”. Chef Alex s-a întors în România anul trecut răspunzând la o invitație-provocare de a pune în practică la pensiunea ATRA, două concepte care se îmbină de minune - Fine Dining și Farm to Table. ”Mă regăsesc în ambele. Știu că e greu, sunt concepte pe care sper să le fac să crească. Principalul obstacol îl reprezintă furnizorii, ce ar trebui să fie producători locali. A trebuit să-i găsesc, să văd cum lucrează, cum gândesc. Mi-am propus să valorific cât mai multe din resursele locale naturale, mergem pe chestiuni simple pe care trebuie să le păstrăm la un nivel de calitate constant. Am căutat în piețe locale, am căutat pe dealuri și munți. În plus ne-am creat propria grădină, de unde ne asigurăm o parte din vegetale, legume și plante aromatice. Dacă vom reuși în viitorii cinci ani să folosim peste 40% ingrediente locale vom vorbi de un succes enorm.”
\r\nFurnizorii!? În regia discretă a întâlnirii noastre, coordonată din umbră de Mariana Popa, omul cu marketingul la Pensiunea ATRA, a venit pe ”scenă” Rareș Constantinescu. Are 30 de ani și a cumulat o experiență foarte diversă. El este omul cu brânzeturile și cașcavalul. Arată ca scos din cutie și nici n-ai spune că a venit de la stână. ”Eu sunt un băiat de asfalt, am trăit în București. N-am avut tangență cu oaia și vaca. Am plecat în Europa, am lucrat în domeniul marketingului și publicității în Italia în regiunea Veneto. Am fost și șofer pe o dubă de transport, iar după aia m-am reîntors la publicitate. Intenția mea a fost să dezvolt ceva al meu în Italia dar costa prea mult. Așa că m-am întors acasă și, împreună cu rudele mele care se pricep la brânzeturi ne-am apucat să facem o mică fermă aici în munții Doftanei. Am pornit din 2012 cu capital propriu, am cumpărat animale, am investit în mijloace de transport și tehnologii de prelucrare. Ne-am dorit o afacere independentă. Am pornit cu peste 20.000 de lei. Acum am ajuns să producem brânzeturi de calitate, preferatele fiind telemeaua și cașcaveaua. Am avut norocul să-l întâlnesc pe managerul pensiunii cu care am mers pe o dublă colaborare: furnizez pensiunii produse iar sus la munte am dezvoltat turismul la stână cu experiențe inedite”. Dincolo de pasiune Rareș, care se gândește să crească numărul de vaci, se lovește de un aspect foarte greu de rezolvat. Nu găsește în zonă forță de muncă. Tinerii nu mai vor la coada vacii. Oamenii din sat sunt foarte reținuți, au o mentalitate închisă. ”Poate așa aș fi rămas și eu, dacă nu aș fi plecat să lucrez în străinătate. Am o viziune, și cred că acesta ar putea fi drumul pentru a dezvolta afacerea. Să integrez activitatea mea într-un proiect susținut de fonduri europene. Vom vedea!”
\r\nLeontin Alexe este un alt furnizor al pensiunii ATRA. El este omul cu ciupercile și fructele de pădure. Desfășoară această activitate de vreo 7 ani. S-a intresectat într-o piață locală cu Chef Alex care i-a propus să livreze regulat, când e sezon, produse proaspete pentru restaurantul pensiunii. Omul e plin de povești, inclusiv cu întâlniri cu urșii, la zmeură, la mure, la afine, aventuri din care a scăpat nevătămat. Adică vrea să ne spună că ”viața asta de culegător nu e deloc simplă, are riscurile ei. Cât despre animalele pădurii, trebuie să ști cum să le iei. De când colaborez cu ATRA aș putea spune că îmi e cu mult foarte bine.”
\r\nAm lăsat la sfârșit recitalul fine dining semnat de Chef Alex. Din cele 7 prezentări, ce au pus în valoare materii prime proaspete, locale, ne-au reținut atenția în mod special Pieptul de rață cu piure de verdețuri, cartofi noi copți și fasole verde (excelent gust); Ceaiul din izmă și cimbrișor (notă maximă pentru design gastronomic), respectiv Urda frecată cu măceșe, fagure de miere și migdale (desert de top ce reunește aromele locale și experiențele internaționale). Loboda de grădină, Păstravul afumat, Consommeul din ciuperci sălbatice și Gnocchi din cartofi făcuți în casă - sunt feluri pe care vă invităm să le descoperiți restaurantul ATRA.

Experiența de la Auberge du Soleil (Nappa) a fost sus de tot. Bucătarul de la care am furat cel mai mult rămâne Robert Curry. Oamenii din breaslă m-au impresionat, se comportă cu modestie rară. În America am observat că toți bucătarii sunt deschiși să dăruiască, să te învețe cât mai mult și asta contat extrem de mult în formarea mea”. Chef Alex s-a întors în România anul trecut răspunzând la o invitație-provocare de a pune în practică la pensiunea ATRA, două concepte care se îmbină de minune - Fine Dining și Farm to Table. ”Mă regăsesc în ambele. Știu că e greu, sunt concepte pe care sper să le fac să crească. Principalul obstacol îl reprezintă furnizorii, ce ar trebui să fie producători locali. A trebuit să-i găsesc, să văd cum lucrează, cum gândesc. Mi-am propus să valorific cât mai multe din resursele locale naturale, mergem pe chestiuni simple pe care trebuie să le păstrăm la un nivel de calitate constant. Am căutat în piețe locale, am căutat pe dealuri și munți. În plus ne-am creat propria grădină, de unde ne asigurăm o parte din vegetale, legume și plante aromatice. Dacă vom reuși în viitorii cinci ani să folosim peste 40% ingrediente locale vom vorbi de un succes enorm.”
\r\nFurnizorii!? În regia discretă a întâlnirii noastre, coordonată din umbră de Mariana Popa, omul cu marketingul la Pensiunea ATRA, a venit pe ”scenă” Rareș Constantinescu. Are 30 de ani și a cumulat o experiență foarte diversă. El este omul cu brânzeturile și cașcavalul. Arată ca scos din cutie și nici n-ai spune că a venit de la stână. ”Eu sunt un băiat de asfalt, am trăit în București. N-am avut tangență cu oaia și vaca. Am plecat în Europa, am lucrat în domeniul marketingului și publicității în Italia în regiunea Veneto. Am fost și șofer pe o dubă de transport, iar după aia m-am reîntors la publicitate. Intenția mea a fost să dezvolt ceva al meu în Italia dar costa prea mult. Așa că m-am întors acasă și, împreună cu rudele mele care se pricep la brânzeturi ne-am apucat să facem o mică fermă aici în munții Doftanei. Am pornit din 2012 cu capital propriu, am cumpărat animale, am investit în mijloace de transport și tehnologii de prelucrare. Ne-am dorit o afacere independentă. Am pornit cu peste 20.000 de lei. Acum am ajuns să producem brânzeturi de calitate, preferatele fiind telemeaua și cașcaveaua. Am avut norocul să-l întâlnesc pe managerul pensiunii cu care am mers pe o dublă colaborare: furnizez pensiunii produse iar sus la munte am dezvoltat turismul la stână cu experiențe inedite”. Dincolo de pasiune Rareș, care se gândește să crească numărul de vaci, se lovește de un aspect foarte greu de rezolvat. Nu găsește în zonă forță de muncă. Tinerii nu mai vor la coada vacii. Oamenii din sat sunt foarte reținuți, au o mentalitate închisă. ”Poate așa aș fi rămas și eu, dacă nu aș fi plecat să lucrez în străinătate. Am o viziune, și cred că acesta ar putea fi drumul pentru a dezvolta afacerea. Să integrez activitatea mea într-un proiect susținut de fonduri europene. Vom vedea!”
\r\nLeontin Alexe este un alt furnizor al pensiunii ATRA. El este omul cu ciupercile și fructele de pădure. Desfășoară această activitate de vreo 7 ani. S-a intresectat într-o piață locală cu Chef Alex care i-a propus să livreze regulat, când e sezon, produse proaspete pentru restaurantul pensiunii. Omul e plin de povești, inclusiv cu întâlniri cu urșii, la zmeură, la mure, la afine, aventuri din care a scăpat nevătămat. Adică vrea să ne spună că ”viața asta de culegător nu e deloc simplă, are riscurile ei. Cât despre animalele pădurii, trebuie să ști cum să le iei. De când colaborez cu ATRA aș putea spune că îmi e cu mult foarte bine.”
\r\nAm lăsat la sfârșit recitalul fine dining semnat de Chef Alex. Din cele 7 prezentări, ce au pus în valoare materii prime proaspete, locale, ne-au reținut atenția în mod special Pieptul de rață cu piure de verdețuri, cartofi noi copți și fasole verde (excelent gust); Ceaiul din izmă și cimbrișor (notă maximă pentru design gastronomic), respectiv Urda frecată cu măceșe, fagure de miere și migdale (desert de top ce reunește aromele locale și experiențele internaționale). Loboda de grădină, Păstravul afumat, Consommeul din ciuperci sălbatice și Gnocchi din cartofi făcuți în casă - sunt feluri pe care vă invităm să le descoperiți restaurantul ATRA.

Cocinela este o insectă parazit a cactusului, căruia localnicii îi acordă o mare importanță în culturile agricole pe care le dezvoltă. Paradoxal din această vietate se extrage o substanță de culoarea sângelui folosită ca aditiv alimentar, sută la sută natural. Ceea ce reprezintă o raritate acum când industria alimentară e invadată de coloranți chimici. Bărbații sunt ”favoriții” acestei insecte, sau viceversa, deoarece celebrele mărci Martini și Campari își datorează culoarea rubinie tot... cocinelei. Femeile însă sunt răsfățatele... cocinelei, căci din extractul natural se produce una dintre cele mai apreciate nuanțe de roșu pentru... rujuri.

\r\nNu ai voie să ratezi pe insula Lanzarote Casa Muzeu a Fundației Cezar Manrique. Ca și Grădina Botanică, ca și alte creații futuriste ale sale, care îmbină fantezii cromatice și arhitectonice și clădirea în care intrăm poartă amprentă unei creații unice. Manrique a edificat această clădire în 1966 pe un fluviu de lavă pietrificată iar în 1992, împreună cu un grup de prieteni a pus bazele fundației. Grădinile subterane, expozițiile suspendate, galeriile secrete ale muzeului ce conduc spre spații de relaxare și socializare, vorbesc despre un arhitect militant căruia administrația locală nu va reuși niciodată să-i întoarcă mulțumirile pentru conservarea arhitecturii hispanice locale. Dacă vreți să știți însă cum trăiau localnicii vizitați Muzeul Agricol El Patio din Tiagua. Găsiți aici din toate, ca pe la noi: unelte țărănești, costume, mobilier rustic, o fermă de animale (chiar și cămile), terase agricole și cramă de vinuri. Nu ratați degustarea de vin. Surpriza e de proporții! Vinuri create din plantații cultivate pe dealuri acoperite cu o fertilă... cenușă vulcanică. Unele au fost și premiate la concursuri naționale ori internaționale. Sigur, veți pleca cu o sticlă sub braț. Dar iubitorii de natură nu se vor sătura de peisajul selenar al insulei. Tururile de aici pot fi completate cu vizitarea Parcului Național Timanfaya precum și cu Valea celor 1000 de palmieri. De reținut.
\r\nFUENTEVENTURA - Spre Casa Colonelului
\r\nSe pare că atunci când ești expulzat pe o insulă aridă precum Fuenteventura și te numești Miguel de Unamuno tot ce-ți mai rămâne de făcut ca să-ți inspășești penitența este să scrii. Așa s-a întâmplat și cu celebrul scriitor spaniol care descria în cuvinte aspre insula-închisoare: un peisaj arid, totul de un gri cenușiu, fără vegetație și cu o climă greu de suportat. Același loc va fi descris, peste câțiva ani, ca un tărâm al liniștei, meditației și comuniunii cu natura. Ce repede se schimbă lumea. Scrierile lui Miguel au atras atenția călătorilor asupra insulei asaltată azi de iubitorii de... liniște, cicloturism, motociclism și trekkeri. Sau pur și simplu de turiști pedeștri. Insula e foarte ușor de străbătut în toate direcții deoarece dispune de o infrastructură de transport în comun impecabilă. Fuenteventura a fost declarată Rezervație a Biosferei în 2009. Localnicii săi se trag din primii coloniști sosiți aici din teritoriile africane. Ei se numeau ”mahorero”, cuvânt derivat din ”mahos”, adică încălțări din piele de capră. Alte povești am aflat la Morro Veloso, un orășel toropit de soare și în La Oliva, altă urbe minusculă dominată de Casa Colonelului, reper de referință pentru orice excursie opțională venită de pe vasele de croazieră. Clădirea datează de pe la 1600 și figurează azi în patrimoniul mondial UNESCO. Spațiul te trimite spre arhitectura colonială, spre tradiții și protocoale hispanice, camerele ei emanând și azi ceva din aerul protocolar și diplomatic al unor familii regale.
\r\nDrumul te poartă apoi spre marele ”bang”: un peisaj deșertic, cu dune de nisip auriu, care-și revarsă apele limpezi pe plaja Atlaticului. Locul se numește Corralejo și impresionează prin culorile auriu și turcoaz dar și printr-o natură suprinzătoare tăiată parcă în două de șoseaua pe care o străbatem. De-o parte plajele cu nisipuri ireale în care sunt ascunse complexe hoteliere internaționale - vedete fiind cele din lanțul Riu, de cealaltă, dealuri cu vegetație luxuriantă.
\r\nLAS PALMAS - Carnaval, trabucuri și lichioruri
\r\nCând vine vorba de carnavaluri celebre gîndul te duce spre Rio, Veneția ori New Orleans. Ei bine, aflați că mai există unul care le concureză cu mare succes. Carnavalul de la Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, cea mai iubită sărbătoare a insulelor Canare. Are toate ingredientele necesare, cultivate cu devotament de acest oraș cosmopolit invadat de turiști și de verdeață. Orașul este publicitat ca având cel mai bun climat din lume conform studiilor lui Thomas Whitmore, profesor al Universității din Siracuza. La scurt timp după ce a tras la mal nava noastră de croazieră am ales însă să ne îndreptăm spre inima insulei unde am căutat alte perpsective asupra orașului. Prima oprire - Arucas, unde am vizitat Catedrala San Juan Bautista, edificată la 1515. Stilul neogotic cheamă turiștii sosiți din toată lumea. A fost construită dintr-o rocă albastră, tot de natură vulcanică, material ce se găsește din belșug în zonă. Linii severe, coloane înalte, vitraliile dau parcă altă importanță străzilor înguste ale micii localități. Grădina botanică este încadrată de case vechi de circa 4-500 de ani. Unele dintre ele ascund istorii administrative, altele degajă un calm familial și un sentiment de trăinicie. Toate sunt restaurate la detaliu iar fiecare statuie te trimite spre un fragment de istorie. De aici plecăm spre nord și ajungem la Teror. Un alt oraș de buzunar asediat de verdeață. Biserica din Teror vine cu un patrimoniu ce datează din secolul al XVI-lea. Azi este monument UNESCO. Aici e miezul vieții turistice, aici forfotesc producătorii și turiștii. Piața agroalimentară - brânzeturile de capră făcute după metode, secret de familie, dar și după rețete industriale, lichiorurile de palmier și, desigur, trabucurile ori țigaretele locale -, sunt la mare căutare. Toate sunt promovate ca produse ce merită dăruite rudelor și prietenilor. Comersanții nu se aruncă la preț. Știu că vasul de croazieră de pe care am debarcat trece pe aici o dată pe săptămână. Important este să vinzi în profit, căci marfa tradițională, slavă Domnului se înnoiește permanent. Pentru ultimul obiectiv, La Bandana, străbatem un peisaj luxuriant. Trecem cu privirile captivate de rezervația de pini (din care de asemenea se produce un lichior special) și cea a pădurilor de lauri. Insulele Canare au privilegiul de a fi unicul loc din lume în care acestea se mai găsesc în stare naturală, ca urmare a unei clime faborabile constante. Paradoxal deși altitudinea nu este mare (circa 800 de metri) senzația de amețeală este foarte frecventă. Ca și cum ai aborda Everestul. Poate frumusețea locului și aerul curat influențează percepția turistului. Moț peste toate, și asta ne-a plăcut la fel de mult, a fost Centrul de informare turistică. Foarte bine garnisit cu materiale de promovare gratuite în toate limbile internaționale, a fost amplasat în vârful muntelui. Muzeu alături, ghizi bine informați, totul deschis non-stop. Spaniolii știu de mult că mașinăria turismul se mișcă tot timpul. Asta dacă vrei să faci bani!
\r\nȘi încă o mică surpiză. La reîntoarcerea spre navă intrăm în discuții prietenești cu ghidul. Îi este cunoscută limba pe care o vorbim. Îi spunem că suntem din România. Atunci se luminează la față, aici în Gran Canaria, la mai bine de șase ore de zbor de București. ”Știam eu! Mă bucur să vă cunosc. Iubesc România, soția mea este Constanța!” Ne îmbrățișăm cu sufletul larg. Poate ne vom revedea. Cine știe! Lumea turismului e mare și mică. Nava ridică ancora. Mâine ne vom reîntoarce acasă, pe uscat!

Carnavalul de la Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, cea mai iubită sărbătoare a insulelor Canare. Are toate ingredientele necesare, cultivate cu devotament de acest oraș cosmopolit invadat de turiști și de verdeață. Orașul este publicitat ca având cel mai bun climat din lume conform studiilor lui Thomas Whitmore, profesor al Universității din Siracuza. La scurt timp după ce a tras la mal nava noastră de croazieră am ales însă să ne îndreptăm spre inima insulei unde am căutat alte perpsective asupra orașului. Prima oprire - Arucas, unde am vizitat Catedrala San Juan Bautista, edificată la 1515. Stilul neogotic cheamă turiștii sosiți din toată lumea. A fost construită dintr-o rocă albastră, tot de natură vulcanică, material ce se găsește din belșug în zonă. Linii severe, coloane înalte, vitraliile dau parcă altă importanță străzilor înguste ale micii localități. Grădina botanică este încadrată de case vechi de circa 4-500 de ani. Unele dintre ele ascund istorii administrative, altele degajă un calm familial și un sentiment de trăinicie. Toate sunt restaurate la detaliu iar fiecare statuie te trimite spre un fragment de istorie. De aici plecăm spre nord și ajungem la Teror. Un alt oraș de buzunar asediat de verdeață. Biserica din Teror vine cu un patrimoniu ce datează din secolul al XVI-lea. Azi este monument UNESCO. Aici e miezul vieții turistice, aici forfotesc producătorii și turiștii. Piața agroalimentară - brânzeturile de capră făcute după metode, secret de familie, dar și după rețete industriale, lichiorurile de palmier și, desigur, trabucurile ori țigaretele locale -, sunt la mare căutare. Toate sunt promovate ca produse ce merită dăruite rudelor și prietenilor. Comersanții nu se aruncă la preț. Știu că vasul de croazieră de pe care am debarcat trece pe aici o dată pe săptămână. Important este să vinzi în profit, căci marfa tradițională, slavă Domnului se înnoiește permanent. Pentru ultimul obiectiv, La Bandana, străbatem un peisaj luxuriant. Trecem cu privirile captivate de rezervația de pini (din care de asemenea se produce un lichior special) și cea a pădurilor de lauri. Insulele Canare au privilegiul de a fi unicul loc din lume în care acestea se mai găsesc în stare naturală, ca urmare a unei clime faborabile constante. Paradoxal deși altitudinea nu este mare (circa 800 de metri) senzația de amețeală este foarte frecventă. Ca și cum ai aborda Everestul. Poate frumusețea locului și aerul curat influențează percepția turistului. Moț peste toate, și asta ne-a plăcut la fel de mult, a fost Centrul de informare turistică. Foarte bine garnisit cu materiale de promovare gratuite în toate limbile internaționale, a fost amplasat în vârful muntelui. Muzeu alături, ghizi bine informați, totul deschis non-stop. Spaniolii știu de mult că mașinăria turismul se mișcă tot timpul. Asta dacă vrei să faci bani!
\r\nȘi încă o mică surpiză. La reîntoarcerea spre navă intrăm în discuții prietenești cu ghidul. Îi este cunoscută limba pe care o vorbim. Îi spunem că suntem din România. Atunci se luminează la față, aici în Gran Canaria, la mai bine de șase ore de zbor de București. ”Știam eu! Mă bucur să vă cunosc. Iubesc România, soția mea este Constanța!” Ne îmbrățișăm cu sufletul larg. Poate ne vom revedea. Cine știe! Lumea turismului e mare și mică. Nava ridică ancora. Mâine ne vom reîntoarce acasă, pe uscat!

Valoarea lor este enormă din punct de vedere istoric și cultural - afirmă cercetătorul ştiinţific Constantin Preoteasa, custodele Muzeului de artă eneolitică Cucuteni. Împreună am pornit să descoperim o parte din colecția de artefacte unde se regăsesc creații din lut ars ca Hora de la Frumușica, Vasul cu colonete, Soborul zeițelor, Gânditorul de la Târpești etc.\r\n\r\nValori de Tezaur\r\n\r\n„Vorbim despre un obiectiv cultural premium în România, un muzeu unic în lume, un muzeu în acelaşi timp de arheologie, de istorie, dar şi de artă, dedicat exclusiv celei mai importante civilizaţii preistorice europene; cultura Cucuteni-Tripolie, ca să-i folosim sintagma corectă şi completă, după cele două localităţi, Cucuteni, din judeţul Iaşi, şi Tripolie, din apropiere de Kiev, unde au fost descoperite oficial, la sfârşitul secolului XIX, primele vestigii ale acestei civilizaţii. Găzduim cea mai importantă colecţie de artă cucuteniană din lume şi cea mai importantă colecţie de artă preistorică din rasăritul Europei. Aici se regăsesc doar artefacte de prestigiu, capodopere ale artei decorative şi figurative cucuteniene. Piesele au toate valoare cultică sau artistică. Vorbim despre circa 800 de piese, majoritatea din categoria Tezaur, datând din perioada 6000-2600 îHr” - mai precizează Preoteasa.\r\nVă trebuie cam o zi să vedeți colecțiile ce amintesc de munca dr. Dan Monah (1943-2013) care și-a dăruit viața de cercetător comunității nemțene. Un spațiu special de la ultimul etaj îi este dedicat.
\r\nȘtefan cel Mare și ceasul vienez
\r\nDacă stați mai multe zile la Piatra Neamț nu ratați alte obiective cu o încărcătură istorică la fel de mare. Firește Turnul lui Ștefan cel Mare ar fi al doilea punct de oprire. Turnul clopotniță (1499) tronează cu înălțimea de 19 metri peste piaţa în care este amplasat. Aici veți afla că ceasul a fost fabricat la Viena iar foișorul de pază a fost adăugat ulterior pentru a depista la timp eventualele incendii din oraș. Este emblema orașului semn că marele voievod a simțit, atunci când a ridicat întregul complex, prin 1468-1475, pulsul istoriei ce va urma. Integrat în centrul orașului el ”centrează” Curtea Domnească. Muzeul Curtea Domnească – Pivnița II a fost inaugurat anul trecut, în primăvară. În spaţiul amenajat chiar lângă sediul primăriei, turiştii pot vedea ruinele caselor domneşti descoperite în urma cercetărilor arheologice. Construcţiile se înscriu în rândul caselor cu pivniţă, sistem foarte răspândit în Moldova. În perimetru regăsim Biserica Domnească Sfântul Ioan Botezătorul, ridicată din piatră în 1497-1498. Unii spun că este mai modest decorată. Fațadele bisericii atrag privirile și impresionează prin decorația originară în ceramică policromă și ancadramentele cu influențe gotice. Nouă ne-a plăcut foarte mult. Așa cum e, se integrează într-un spațiu urban foarte aerisit și armonios.
\r\n19 colecții și aer curat
\r\nLucru ce se poate afirma și despre Muzeul de Etnografie din Piatra Neamț, construit în 1931, de același Roger Bolomey. Bazele colecţiei de etnografie datează de la mijlocul secolului trecut (muzeul a fost deschis în 1960). Puțini știu că aici a fost locuința directorului Școlii primare ce a funcționat inițial în actualul Muzeu de artă. Ce bine se leagă lucrurile. Tot aici se găseşte şi Muzeul de Artă din Piatra Neamț, fondat 20 de ani mai târziu. Constituirea colecţiei de artă la Piatra-Neamţ este legată de activitatea lui Constantin Matasă (1878-1971), preot, arheolog și memorialist. Alături de lucrări ale maeștrilor artei românești Petrașcu, Șirato, Tonitza, Țuculescu, Jalea, Baba, Irimescu sunt valorificate și lucrări ale unor creatori cu rădăcini sau legături de suflet nemțene, precum C.D Stahi, Aurel Băieșu, Lascăr Vorel, Clement Pompiliu, Iulia Hălăucescu ori Aurelia Vasiliu-Gheață cea care a inflențat foarte mult tapiseria modernă autohtonă. În total vorbim de 19 colecţii muzeale şi o galerie de artă, aer curat, montan, pădure şi o atmosferă de poveste în care vă invităm la Piatra Neamţ.
\r\nCaută și Casa Paharnicului
\r\nÎn funcție de bugetul de timp căutați și alte obiective care amintesc de tradițiile comerciale, de momente istorice sau arhitectura locală. Casa Ivașcu, Casa Lalu, construită în 1912 de același Carol Zani, Casa Paharnicului, ridicată de aga Dimitrie Gheorghiadis, Casa Hausschild, Casa Elena Cuza și, bineînțeles, Casa cu amfore, un ansamblu arhitectural deosebit. O plimbare cu telegondola, deasupra oraşului, vă poartă pe muntele Cozia, la o altitudine de 657 de metri, iarna loc de pornire pentru schiori. Invitaţia a fost lansată. În numărul viitor vă propunem o altă destinație. Mai puțin cunoscută.

Despre avantajele pachetelor turistice care se regăsesc deja în cataloagele firmei Dertour România, au vorbit la București, în cadrul unui RoadShow de promovare reprezentanții Condor (Attila Toth, reprezentativ și pe România), ai Biroului de Turism Bahamas pentru Europa Centrală & CIS, cu sediul în Germania (Angelika Ardelt și Claudia Majunke), ai hotelurilor internaționale Atlantis (Anke Herrmann), Breezes Superclubs (Martin Grass),Melia (Raul Villagran),Sandals Resorts (Elena Sokolova), Nassau Paradise Island Promotion Board (Kristina Baltrusyte) și Viva Wyndham Hotels (Patrizia Olivadi).
\r\nUniunea Bahamas deține 700 de insule și atoli, dintre care 30 sunt locuite. 16 dintre acestea trăiesc aproape exclusiv din turism și așa se explică de ce sectorul Horeca este extrem de dezvoltat. Un alt avantaj al poziționării insulelor Bahamas este că acestea sunt situate la doar 80 de kilometri sud-est de Florida (SUA) și 100 de kilometri nord de Cuba. Deci foarte bune oportunități de a vizita și alte destinații turistice. Moneda este dolarul bahamez, menținut la paritate cu cel american. Pentru a intra în Bahamas românii (ca și polonezii, rușii și cehii) nu au nevoie de viză. Perioada cea mai bună de a vizita fantasticele plaje și ape (printre cele mai limpezi din lume), de a te bucura de mâncarea tradițională (nu uitați de cocktailul cu fructe Bahama-Mama), este între decembrie și mai.

\r\nCANADA - proceduri simplificate de viză
\r\nDe la începutul lunii mai 2017 români care au avut viză de călătorie pentru Canada în ultimii 10 ani sau dețin viză valabilă pentru SUA pot circula în Canada cu avionul având nevoie doar de o autorizație electronică de călătorie care se acordă repede și simplu. Persoanele care nu îndeplinesc aceste condiții vor avea nevoie în continuare de viza de vizitator. De asemenea, toti cetățenii români vor avea nevoie de viză pentru a intra sau reintra în Canada cu automobilul, autocarul, trenul,vaporul, sau la bordul unui vas de croazieră. În comparație cu viza, eTA se acorda mai simplu și mai repede. Depunerea cererii se face electronic, iar aceasta este soluționată, în general, în câteva minute. Taxa este de 7 dolari canadieni. eTA este valabilă pentru o durată de până la 5 ani și le permite călătorilor să se deplaseze în Canada pe calea aerului oricât de frecvent, pe perioade scurte, în general de până la 6 luni consecutive, pentru studii, tranzitarea printr-un aeroport canadian, vizite turistice sau călătorii de afaceri - a anunțat Ambasada Canadei la București. După cum se știe începând cu 1 decembrie 2017 toți românii vor putea călători în Canada fără viză.

Dar cum se exprimă industria turistică la IPW ? Pe parcursul celor 5 zile au avut loc peste 112.000 de întâlniri B2B în cele 1300 de standuri expoziționale. Ca de obicei există și o evaluare realizată de către firma independentă de cercetare Rockport Analytics. Ea estimează că afacerile inițiate aici vor genera în viitorii 3 ani, un venit de peste 4,7 miliarde de dolari pentru turismul american. Care este impactul desfășurării IPW la Washington DC? Oficialitățile se așteaptă ca turismul să ”pompeze” în economia locală peste 1,7 miliarde de dolari. Aceleași așteptări are și U.S. Travel Association, organizație națională non profit (o structură asemăntoare unui minister al turismului) ce reprezintă o industrie susținută de 15,3 milioane de locuri de muncă care generează în economia Statelor Unite 2,3 trilioane de dolari.

\r\nIPW WASHINGTON DC- ”A big Welcome!”
\r\nChiar dacă U.S. Travel Association organizatorul celui mai mare târg de turism din lume - International Pow Wow -, a semnalat mai multe aspecte care au influențat negativ circulația turistică spre SUA, cea de-a 49 ediție (3-7 iunie), a fost un mare succes. Desfășurată pentru prima oară în istoria sa în sălile de expoziții ale Walter E. Washington Convention Center, din inima politicii americane, manifestarea a atras peste 6.400 de touroperatori, proprietari de lanțuri hoteliere, de companii aeriene, de parcuri de distracții, muzee, parcuri naturale și tematice, restaurante, firme de consultanță, sisteme globale de rezervări, structuri locale și naționale de promovare, marketing și publicitate turistică. Dintre aceștia peste 1300 au fost companii internaționale. În fața a circa 530 de jurnaliști și editori de travel (un record de participare a presei) Roger Dow, președintele U.S. Travel Association & CEO, a subliniat că oamenii de afaceri americani din această industrie sunt deschiși să creeze și să dezvolte noi contacte profesionale și de business. El a precizat că această tendință este susținută nu numai de diversificarea campaniei ”Brand USA”, care este și sponsorul principal al IPW -, ci și de sloganul cu care sunt întâmpinați turiștii din întreaga lume - “One Big Welcome”. \r\nDar cum se exprimă industria turistică la IPW ?

Dacă n-ați fost atenți nu ați aflat că România a reușit o performanță demnă de Guinness Book. Și-a desființat toate Birourile de promovare turistică din străinătate. Ultimele 9 au sfârșit într-o confuzie generală. Băieții isteți care ajung miniștrii ai turismului nu le mai au deloc cu comunicarea. De ce spun asta? Pentru că știrea întreagă era că au fost desființate (cele 9), pentru că nu mai se dovedeau utile și eficiente scopului inițial. Și că urmează să fie altele înființate (circa 14 afirma Mircea Titus Dobre) în țări cheie furnizoare de turiști pentru România. Vor fi o parte din cele executate de Elena Udrea ? Zâna promovării, în maniera Gala Bute, anunța că a economisit 1 milion de euro, iar publicitatea țărișoarei noastre se va pe Facebook, care e mult mai tare, și, în plus, era pe gratis. Ne lăsați? Nu s-a întâmplat nimic din toate astea, nici plopul n-a făcut mere, nici răchita... facebucele.
\r\n\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_3965\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"225\"] Marian Constantinescu[/caption]\r\nDacă n-ați fost atenți directorii vizați din străinătate au făcut și un fel de grevă japoneză, reclamând că munca lor nu este respectată la adevărata ei valoare, că a fost de cele mai multe ori ”sabotată” fie prin subfinanțare, fie prin nefinanțare. Iată o constatare. După mulți ani a fost pentru prima dată când am primit o informație (fie ea și un protest) de la un Birou de turism al României din străinătate. Întrebare: dacă știați adresele noastre de ce de-a lungul celor aproape 14 ani, nu ne-ați trimis măcar o știre despre cum promovați România? Cu excepția participării la vreun târg de turism internațional, unde singurul scop a fost să vă ”gudurați” (scuze, dar termenul oglindește corect atitudinea) pe lângă liderul turistic ajuns în extaz, de cât de frumos e expusă Românica. N-ați avut interesul ori n-ați avut ce!?
\r\nCe vor fi și cum vor funcționa noile reprezentanțe de promovare turistică? Se acreditează un parteneriat cu Ministerul Afacerilor Externe, care ar putea găzdui birouri de acest gen. Ideea nu e nouă (ea funcționează și în țări cu vechi tradiții turistice, Franța de exemplu), dar a transforma angajații turismului în personal diplomatic, sau o parte din personalul diplomatic în ”personal” turistic, nu prea strălucește. Ministrul spune că nu va fi așa. Că se vor da examene pentru formarea unui ”corp al atașaților de turism”, ce vor avea propriile birouri în orașele țintă. Bine, ca să cităm replică dintr-o poveste de marketing a lui Ogilvy, dar asta aveam și până acum. Mircea Dobre crede că astfel va eficientiza promovarea și va reduce cheltuielile făcute cu sediile. Vom vedea. Ca majoritatea românilor și el e liber să creadă că minunile cad din cer. Vestea proastă e că ele se numesc întâmplări.

O veste cît se poate de bună pentru românii amatori de vacanțe exotice în perioada de iarnă din țara noastră. Începând din 6 noiembrie operatorul aerian Condor a inclus în orarul de zbor o cursă săptămânală fără escală din Frankfurt (Germania) până la Nassau. Practic românii au posibilități variate de conectare la această cursă, în afară de TAROM existând încă 8 companii cu zboruri de pe Aeroportul Internațional Otopeni.\n\n
Despre avantajele pachetelor turistice care se regăsesc deja în cataloagele firmei Dertour România, au vorbit la București, în cadrul unui RoadShow de promovare reprezentanții Condor (Attila Toth, reprezentativ și pe România), ai Biroului de Turism Bahamas pentru Europa Centrală & CIS, cu sediul în Germania (Angelika Ardelt și Claudia Majunke), ai hotelurilor internaționale Atlantis (Anke Herrmann), Breezes Superclubs (Martin Grass),Melia (Raul Villagran),Sandals Resorts (Elena Sokolova), Nassau Paradise Island Promotion Board (Kristina Baltrusyte) și Viva Wyndham Hotels (Patrizia Olivadi).
\nUniunea Bahamas deține 700 de insule și atoli, dintre care 30 sunt locuite. 16 dintre acestea trăiesc aproape exclusiv din turism și așa se explică de ce sectorul Horeca este extrem de dezvoltat. Un alt avantaj al poziționării insulelor Bahamas este că acestea sunt situate la doar 80 de kilometri sud-est de Florida (SUA) și 100 de kilometri nord de Cuba. Deci foarte bune oportunități de a vizita și alte destinații turistice. Moneda este dolarul bahamez, menținut la paritate cu cel american. Pentru a intra în Bahamas românii (ca și polonezii, rușii și cehii) nu au nevoie de viză. Perioada cea mai bună de a vizita fantasticele plaje și ape (printre cele mai limpezi din lume), de a te bucura de mâncarea tradițională (nu uitați de cocktailul cu fructe Bahama-Mama), este între decembrie și mai.

\nCANADA - proceduri simplificate de viză
\nDe la începutul lunii mai 2017 români care au avut viză de călătorie pentru Canada în ultimii 10 ani sau dețin viză valabilă pentru SUA pot circula în Canada cu avionul având nevoie doar de o autorizație electronică de călătorie care se acordă repede și simplu. Persoanele care nu îndeplinesc aceste condiții vor avea nevoie în continuare de viza de vizitator. De asemenea, toti cetățenii români vor avea nevoie de viză pentru a intra sau reintra în Canada cu automobilul, autocarul, trenul,vaporul, sau la bordul unui vas de croazieră. În comparație cu viza, eTA se acorda mai simplu și mai repede. Depunerea cererii se face electronic, iar aceasta este soluționată, în general, în câteva minute. Taxa este de 7 dolari canadieni. eTA este valabilă pentru o durată de până la 5 ani și le permite călătorilor să se deplaseze în Canada pe calea aerului oricât de frecvent, pe perioade scurte, în general de până la 6 luni consecutive, pentru studii, tranzitarea printr-un aeroport canadian, vizite turistice sau călătorii de afaceri - a anunțat Ambasada Canadei la București. După cum se știe începând cu 1 decembrie 2017 toți românii vor putea călători în Canada fără viză.
\nIPW WASHINGTON DC- ”A big Welcome!”\n\n
\nChiar dacă U.S. Travel Association organizatorul celui mai mare târg de turism din lume - International Pow Wow -, a semnalat mai multe aspecte care au influențat negativ circulația turistică spre SUA, cea de-a 49 ediție (3-7 iunie), a fost un mare succes. Desfășurată pentru prima oară în istoria sa în sălile de expoziții ale Walter E. Washington Convention Center, din inima politicii americane, manifestarea a atras peste 6.400 de touroperatori, proprietari de lanțuri hoteliere, de companii aeriene, de parcuri de distracții, muzee, parcuri naturale și tematice, restaurante, firme de consultanță, sisteme globale de rezervări, structuri locale și naționale de promovare, marketing și publicitate turistică. Dintre aceștia peste 1300 au fost companii internaționale. În fața a circa 530 de jurnaliști și editori de travel (un record de participare a presei) Roger Dow, președintele U.S. Travel Association & CEO, a subliniat că oamenii de afaceri americani din această industrie sunt deschiși să creeze și să dezvolte noi contacte profesionale și de business. El a precizat că această tendință este susținută nu numai de diversificarea campaniei ”Brand USA”, care este și sponsorul principal al IPW -, ci și de sloganul cu care sunt întâmpinați turiștii din întreaga lume - “One Big Welcome”. \nDar cum se exprimă industria turistică la IPW ? Pe parcursul celor 5 zile au avut loc peste 112.000 de întâlniri B2B în cele 1300 de standuri expoziționale. Ca de obicei există și o evaluare realizată de către firma independentă de cercetare Rockport Analytics. Ea estimează că afacerile inițiate aici vor genera în viitorii 3 ani, un venit de peste 4,7 miliarde de dolari pentru turismul american. Care este impactul desfășurării IPW la Washington DC? Oficialitățile se așteaptă ca turismul să ”pompeze” în economia locală peste 1,7 miliarde de dolari. Aceleași așteptări are și U.S. Travel Association, organizație națională non profit (o structură asemăntoare unui minister al turismului) ce reprezintă o industrie susținută de 15,3 milioane de locuri de muncă care generează în economia Statelor Unite 2,3 trilioane de dolari. Traveller Magazin a participat pentru a 19 oară, consecutiv, la IPW, și acest lucru este foarte apreciat. Despre atmosfera, evenimentele și experiențele de travel, în numerele viitoare.

O presiune economică dar și apărarea blazonului de lider mondial al industriei turistice îi determină în continuare să caute și să dezvolte noi scheme de promovare internaționale. De unde vine această presiune? La o populație de 67 de milioane francezii au primit, în 2016, 83 de milioane de vizitatori străini, cifră care plasează în continuare această țară pe locul 1 ocupat de 20 de ani. 80% dintre aceștia provin din țările europene.
\n
La o conferință de presă desfășurată la Intercontinental Viena, oraș placă turnantă pentru Birourile de turism care acoperă promovarea țării lor în zona Europei centrale și de Est, a fost anunțat un targhet ambițios dar realizabil - a afirmat Corinne Foulquier, manager Austria & Central Europe Atout France. În 2020 Franța estimează că va primit 100 de milioane de vizitatori străini. În 2016 această industrie asigura 2 milioane de locuri de muncă (dintre care 1,27 milioane joburi directe) iar contribuția la Produsul Național Brut era de 7,4%. E așteptat ca nivelul acestora să crească proporțional. Desigur, nimic nu crește dacă nu se seamănă și nu se udă. Ne-a plăcut comparația care a trimis direct către promovarea și publicitatea de destinație. Pentru ca să ajungă la cifra amintită a turiștilor străini și pentru a-și atinge obiectivele stabilite Franța va investi circa 42,7 milioane de euro într-un plan ce prevede alături de creșterea securității destinației, susținerea dezvoltării industriei turistice, cu accent puternic pe diversificarea locurilor de muncă, dar și în încurajarea cetățenilor francezi de a pleca în vacanțe interne. Totul este ”turat” și susținut prin evenimente de promovare și publicitate internațională. În acest timp, pentru a ajunge la 100 de milioane de vizitatori străini pe an, vor fi investiți 1 miliard de euro în noi construcții și renovarea de hoteluri, în tehnologii și infrastructură și în susținerea micilor afaceri din industria ospitalității.
\n
Conferința de presă a făcut parte din evenimentul ”French Rendez-Vous 2017”. Ajuns la a 6-a ediție el a adus față în față 56 de reprezentanți francezi, circa 150 de travel agenți din țările țintă și 10 jurnaliști de travel. Nu voi nominaliza atracții promovate cu acest prilej sub patronajul discret al ES Pascal Teixeira da Silva, ambasadorul Franței în Austria. Dar vom aminti de excelenta seară de promovare oferită de organizatori (vintage, anii ‘50-’60) la Muzeul Remise (al tramvaielor și autobuzelor) unde au fost etalate specialitățile gourmet franceze. Apoi de schimbarea de gardă, pe funcția Corinnei Foulquier venind Emmanuel Marcinkowski (48 de ani și o experiență de 25 de ani în turism). El a arătat printre alte că Germania și Marea Britanie continuă să domine topul furnizorilor de turiști străini, că au apărut mari schimbări în marketingul de destinație dar și în abordarea piețelor tradiționale, generate în principal de noile zboruri, cu prețuri foarte accesibile, ale unor noi companii aeriene, preponderent low cost.
\nNu ne-am propus să nominalizăm vreo destinație dar aveți de unde alege. În materie de turism de congrese vi se oferă anual circa 2800 de asemenea manifestări; puteți să vă îndreptați spre câteva dintre cele 43.000 de monumente istorice, 42 de vestigii culturale și naturale ce figurează pe lista UNESCO, puteți să visați în 18.182 de hoteluri franceze și desfăta culinar în peste 175.000 de restaurante, dintre 616 cu stele Michelin. Nu știu ce vor turiștii de la Franța, dar Franța, după cum se vede știe cu siguranță ce așteaptă de la ei. A bientot!

La o populație de 67 de milioane francezii au primit, în 2016, 83 de milioane de vizitatori străini, cifră care plasează în continuare această țară pe locul 1 ocupat de 20 de ani. 80% dintre aceștia provin din țările europene.
\r\n
La o conferință de presă desfășurată la Intercontinental Viena, oraș placă turnantă pentru Birourile de turism care acoperă promovarea țării lor în zona Europei centrale și de Est, a fost anunțat un targhet ambițios dar realizabil - a afirmat Corinne Foulquier, manager Austria & Central Europe Atout France. În 2020 Franța estimează că va primit 100 de milioane de vizitatori străini. În 2016 această industrie asigura 2 milioane de locuri de muncă (dintre care 1,27 milioane joburi directe) iar contribuția la Produsul Național Brut era de 7,4%. E așteptat ca nivelul acestora să crească proporțional. Desigur, nimic nu crește dacă nu se seamănă și nu se udă. Ne-a plăcut comparația care a trimis direct către promovarea și publicitatea de destinație. Pentru ca să ajungă la cifra amintită a turiștilor străini și pentru a-și atinge obiectivele stabilite Franța va investi circa 42,7 milioane de euro într-un plan ce prevede alături de creșterea securității destinației, susținerea dezvoltării industriei turistice, cu accent puternic pe diversificarea locurilor de muncă, dar și în încurajarea cetățenilor francezi de a pleca în vacanțe interne. Totul este ”turat” și susținut prin evenimente de promovare și publicitate internațională. În acest timp, pentru a ajunge la 100 de milioane de vizitatori străini pe an, vor fi investiți 1 miliard de euro în noi construcții și renovarea de hoteluri, în tehnologii și infrastructură și în susținerea micilor afaceri din industria ospitalității.
\r\n
Conferința de presă a făcut parte din evenimentul ”French Rendez-Vous 2017”. Ajuns la a 6-a ediție el a adus față în față 56 de reprezentanți francezi, circa 150 de travel agenți din țările țintă și 10 jurnaliști de travel. Nu voi nominaliza atracții promovate cu acest prilej sub patronajul discret al ES Pascal Teixeira da Silva, ambasadorul Franței în Austria. Dar vom aminti de excelenta seară de promovare oferită de organizatori (vintage, anii ‘50-’60) la Muzeul Remise (al tramvaielor și autobuzelor) unde au fost etalate specialitățile gourmet franceze. Apoi de schimbarea de gardă, pe funcția Corinnei Foulquier venind Emmanuel Marcinkowski (48 de ani și o experiență de 25 de ani în turism). El a arătat printre alte că Germania și Marea Britanie continuă să domine topul furnizorilor de turiști străini, că au apărut mari schimbări în marketingul de destinație dar și în abordarea piețelor tradiționale, generate în principal de noile zboruri, cu prețuri foarte accesibile, ale unor noi companii aeriene, preponderent low cost.
\r\nNu ne-am propus să nominalizăm vreo destinație dar aveți de unde alege. În materie de turism de congrese vi se oferă anual circa 2800 de asemenea manifestări; puteți să vă îndreptați spre câteva dintre cele 43.000 de monumente istorice, 42 de vestigii culturale și naturale ce figurează pe lista UNESCO, puteți să visați în 18.182 de hoteluri franceze și desfăta culinar în peste 175.000 de restaurante, dintre 616 cu stele Michelin. Nu știu ce vor turiștii de la Franța, dar Franța, după cum se vede știe cu siguranță ce așteaptă de la ei. A bientot!

Nu întîmplător. În această clădire, proiectată de arhitectul Roger Bolomey și construită de italienii Carol Zani și Vicenzo Puschiasis între anii 1028-1930 -, a funcționat inițial Banca Petrodava.
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5969,5970,5971,5972,5973,5974,5975,5976\"]\r\n\r\nUlterior aici a funcționat Filiala Neamț a Băncii Naționale a României (BNR). La începutul acestui secol imobilul a fost trecut în patrimoniul public al județului Neamț, devenind sediu de muzeu. La 24 iunie 2005 cu ocazia aniversării a 120 de ani de la descoperirea așezării ieponime a culturii Cucuteni aici s-a deschis o expoziție permanentă ce găzduiește cea mai bogată colecție de artă eneolitică din sud-estul Europei. Seiful de la parter, cu uși grele și coduri secrete este azi permanent ”între-deschis” oferind vizitatorilor șansa de a vedea printre grilaje o parte din piesele unicat pe care le protejează. Cât valorează? Zeci, sute, mii de milioane de euro? Valoarea lor este enormă din punct de vedere istoric și cultural - afirmă cercetătorul ştiinţific Constantin Preoteasa, custodele Muzeului de artă eneolitică Cucuteni. Împreună am pornit să descoperim o parte din colecția de artefacte unde se regăsesc creații din lut ars ca Hora de la Frumușica, Vasul cu colonete, Soborul zeițelor, Gânditorul de la Târpești etc.\r\n\r\nValori de Tezaur\r\n\r\n„Vorbim despre un obiectiv cultural premium în România, un muzeu unic în lume, un muzeu în acelaşi timp de arheologie, de istorie, dar şi de artă, dedicat exclusiv celei mai importante civilizaţii preistorice europene; cultura Cucuteni-Tripolie, ca să-i folosim sintagma corectă şi completă, după cele două localităţi, Cucuteni, din judeţul Iaşi, şi Tripolie, din apropiere de Kiev, unde au fost descoperite oficial, la sfârşitul secolului XIX, primele vestigii ale acestei civilizaţii. Găzduim cea mai importantă colecţie de artă cucuteniană din lume şi cea mai importantă colecţie de artă preistorică din rasăritul Europei. Aici se regăsesc doar artefacte de prestigiu, capodopere ale artei decorative şi figurative cucuteniene. Piesele au toate valoare cultică sau artistică. Vorbim despre circa 800 de piese, majoritatea din categoria Tezaur, datând din perioada 6000-2600 îHr” - mai precizează Preoteasa.\r\nVă trebuie cam o zi să vedeți colecțiile ce amintesc de munca dr. Dan Monah (1943-2013) care și-a dăruit viața de cercetător comunității nemțene. Un spațiu special de la ultimul etaj îi este dedicat.
\r\nȘtefan cel Mare și ceasul vienez
\r\nDacă stați mai multe zile la Piatra Neamț nu ratați alte obiective cu o încărcătură istorică la fel de mare. Firește Turnul lui Ștefan cel Mare ar fi al doilea punct de oprire. Turnul clopotniță (1499) tronează cu înălțimea de 19 metri peste piaţa în care este amplasat. Aici veți afla că ceasul a fost fabricat la Viena iar foișorul de pază a fost adăugat ulterior pentru a depista la timp eventualele incendii din oraș. Este emblema orașului semn că marele voievod a simțit, atunci când a ridicat întregul complex, prin 1468-1475, pulsul istoriei ce va urma. Integrat în centrul orașului el ”centrează” Curtea Domnească. Muzeul Curtea Domnească – Pivnița II a fost inaugurat anul trecut, în primăvară. În spaţiul amenajat chiar lângă sediul primăriei, turiştii pot vedea ruinele caselor domneşti descoperite în urma cercetărilor arheologice. Construcţiile se înscriu în rândul caselor cu pivniţă, sistem foarte răspândit în Moldova. În perimetru regăsim Biserica Domnească Sfântul Ioan Botezătorul, ridicată din piatră în 1497-1498. Unii spun că este mai modest decorată. Fațadele bisericii atrag privirile și impresionează prin decorația originară în ceramică policromă și ancadramentele cu influențe gotice. Nouă ne-a plăcut foarte mult. Așa cum e, se integrează într-un spațiu urban foarte aerisit și armonios.
\r\n19 colecții și aer curat
\r\nLucru ce se poate afirma și despre Muzeul de Etnografie din Piatra Neamț, construit în 1931, de același Roger Bolomey. Bazele colecţiei de etnografie datează de la mijlocul secolului trecut (muzeul a fost deschis în 1960). Puțini știu că aici a fost locuința directorului Școlii primare ce a funcționat inițial în actualul Muzeu de artă. Ce bine se leagă lucrurile. Tot aici se găseşte şi Muzeul de Artă din Piatra Neamț, fondat 20 de ani mai târziu. Constituirea colecţiei de artă la Piatra-Neamţ este legată de activitatea lui Constantin Matasă (1878-1971), preot, arheolog și memorialist. Alături de lucrări ale maeștrilor artei românești Petrașcu, Șirato, Tonitza, Țuculescu, Jalea, Baba, Irimescu sunt valorificate și lucrări ale unor creatori cu rădăcini sau legături de suflet nemțene, precum C.D Stahi, Aurel Băieșu, Lascăr Vorel, Clement Pompiliu, Iulia Hălăucescu ori Aurelia Vasiliu-Gheață cea care a inflențat foarte mult tapiseria modernă autohtonă. În total vorbim de 19 colecţii muzeale şi o galerie de artă, aer curat, montan, pădure şi o atmosferă de poveste în care vă invităm la Piatra Neamţ.
\r\nCaută și Casa Paharnicului
\r\nÎn funcție de bugetul de timp căutați și alte obiective care amintesc de tradițiile comerciale, de momente istorice sau arhitectura locală. Casa Ivașcu, Casa Lalu, construită în 1912 de același Carol Zani, Casa Paharnicului, ridicată de aga Dimitrie Gheorghiadis, Casa Hausschild, Casa Elena Cuza și, bineînțeles, Casa cu amfore, un ansamblu arhitectural deosebit. O plimbare cu telegondola, deasupra oraşului, vă poartă pe muntele Cozia, la o altitudine de 657 de metri, iarna loc de pornire pentru schiori. Invitaţia a fost lansată. În numărul viitor vă propunem o altă destinație. Mai puțin cunoscută.

E legat de povestea cocinelei. Iar aceasta se întrepătrunde cu cea a plantațiilor și grădinilor de cactuși. Pentru asta am mai rămas un timp în Insula Lanzarote, una dintre cele mai bogate zone din Gran Canaria.\r\n
\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"5978,5979,5980,5981,5982,5983,5984,5985\"]\r\n\r\n
Cocinela este o insectă parazit a cactusului, căruia localnicii îi acordă o mare importanță în culturile agricole pe care le dezvoltă. Paradoxal din această vietate se extrage o substanță de culoarea sângelui folosită ca aditiv alimentar, sută la sută natural. Ceea ce reprezintă o raritate acum când industria alimentară e invadată de coloranți chimici. Bărbații sunt ”favoriții” acestei insecte, sau viceversa, deoarece celebrele mărci Martini și Campari își datorează culoarea rubinie tot... cocinelei. Femeile însă sunt răsfățatele... cocinelei, căci din extractul natural se produce una dintre cele mai apreciate nuanțe de roșu pentru... rujuri.
\r\nLANZAROTE - aselenizați printre palmieri
\r\nNu ai voie să ratezi pe insula Lanzarote Casa Muzeu a Fundației Cezar Manrique. Ca și Grădina Botanică, ca și alte creații futuriste ale sale, care îmbină fantezii cromatice și arhitectonice și clădirea în care intrăm poartă amprentă unei creații unice. Manrique a edificat această clădire în 1966 pe un fluviu de lavă pietrificată iar în 1992, împreună cu un grup de prieteni a pus bazele fundației. Grădinile subterane, expozițiile suspendate, galeriile secrete ale muzeului ce conduc spre spații de relaxare și socializare, vorbesc despre un arhitect militant căruia administrația locală nu va reuși niciodată să-i întoarcă mulțumirile pentru conservarea arhitecturii hispanice locale. Dacă vreți să știți însă cum trăiau localnicii vizitați Muzeul Agricol El Patio din Tiagua. Găsiți aici din toate, ca pe la noi: unelte țărănești, costume, mobilier rustic, o fermă de animale (chiar și cămile), terase agricole și cramă de vinuri. Nu ratați degustarea de vin. Surpriza e de proporții! Vinuri create din plantații cultivate pe dealuri acoperite cu o fertilă... cenușă vulcanică. Unele au fost și premiate la concursuri naționale ori internaționale. Sigur, veți pleca cu o sticlă sub braț. Dar iubitorii de natură nu se vor sătura de peisajul selenar al insulei. Tururile de aici pot fi completate cu vizitarea Parcului Național Timanfaya precum și cu Valea celor 1000 de palmieri. De reținut.
\r\nFUENTEVENTURA - Spre Casa Colonelului
\r\nSe pare că atunci când ești expulzat pe o insulă aridă precum Fuenteventura și te numești Miguel de Unamuno tot ce-ți mai rămâne de făcut ca să-ți inspășești penitența este să scrii. Așa s-a întâmplat și cu celebrul scriitor spaniol care descria în cuvinte aspre insula-închisoare: un peisaj arid, totul de un gri cenușiu, fără vegetație și cu o climă greu de suportat. Același loc va fi descris, peste câțiva ani, ca un tărâm al liniștei, meditației și comuniunii cu natura. Ce repede se schimbă lumea. Scrierile lui Miguel au atras atenția călătorilor asupra insulei asaltată azi de iubitorii de... liniște, cicloturism, motociclism și trekkeri. Sau pur și simplu de turiști pedeștri. Insula e foarte ușor de străbătut în toate direcții deoarece dispune de o infrastructură de transport în comun impecabilă. Fuenteventura a fost declarată Rezervație a Biosferei în 2009. Localnicii săi se trag din primii coloniști sosiți aici din teritoriile africane. Ei se numeau ”mahorero”, cuvânt derivat din ”mahos”, adică încălțări din piele de capră. Alte povești am aflat la Morro Veloso, un orășel toropit de soare și în La Oliva, altă urbe minusculă dominată de Casa Colonelului, reper de referință pentru orice excursie opțională venită de pe vasele de croazieră. Clădirea datează de pe la 1600 și figurează azi în patrimoniul mondial UNESCO. Spațiul te trimite spre arhitectura colonială, spre tradiții și protocoale hispanice, camerele ei emanând și azi ceva din aerul protocolar și diplomatic al unor familii regale.
\r\nDrumul te poartă apoi spre marele ”bang”: un peisaj deșertic, cu dune de nisip auriu, care-și revarsă apele limpezi pe plaja Atlaticului. Locul se numește Corralejo și impresionează prin culorile auriu și turcoaz dar și printr-o natură suprinzătoare tăiată parcă în două de șoseaua pe care o străbatem. De-o parte plajele cu nisipuri ireale în care sunt ascunse complexe hoteliere internaționale - vedete fiind cele din lanțul Riu, de cealaltă, dealuri cu vegetație luxuriantă.
\r\nLAS PALMAS - Carnaval, trabucuri și lichioruri
\r\nCând vine vorba de carnavaluri celebre gîndul te duce spre Rio, Veneția ori New Orleans. Ei bine, aflați că mai există unul care le concureză cu mare succes. Carnavalul de la Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, cea mai iubită sărbătoare a insulelor Canare. Are toate ingredientele necesare, cultivate cu devotament de acest oraș cosmopolit invadat de turiști și de verdeață. Orașul este publicitat ca având cel mai bun climat din lume conform studiilor lui Thomas Whitmore, profesor al Universității din Siracuza. La scurt timp după ce a tras la mal nava noastră de croazieră am ales însă să ne îndreptăm spre inima insulei unde am căutat alte perpsective asupra orașului. Prima oprire - Arucas, unde am vizitat Catedrala San Juan Bautista, edificată la 1515. Stilul neogotic cheamă turiștii sosiți din toată lumea. A fost construită dintr-o rocă albastră, tot de natură vulcanică, material ce se găsește din belșug în zonă. Linii severe, coloane înalte, vitraliile dau parcă altă importanță străzilor înguste ale micii localități. Grădina botanică este încadrată de case vechi de circa 4-500 de ani. Unele dintre ele ascund istorii administrative, altele degajă un calm familial și un sentiment de trăinicie. Toate sunt restaurate la detaliu iar fiecare statuie te trimite spre un fragment de istorie. De aici plecăm spre nord și ajungem la Teror. Un alt oraș de buzunar asediat de verdeață. Biserica din Teror vine cu un patrimoniu ce datează din secolul al XVI-lea. Azi este monument UNESCO. Aici e miezul vieții turistice, aici forfotesc producătorii și turiștii. Piața agroalimentară - brânzeturile de capră făcute după metode, secret de familie, dar și după rețete industriale, lichiorurile de palmier și, desigur, trabucurile ori țigaretele locale -, sunt la mare căutare. Toate sunt promovate ca produse ce merită dăruite rudelor și prietenilor. Comersanții nu se aruncă la preț. Știu că vasul de croazieră de pe care am debarcat trece pe aici o dată pe săptămână. Important este să vinzi în profit, căci marfa tradițională, slavă Domnului se înnoiește permanent. Pentru ultimul obiectiv, La Bandana, străbatem un peisaj luxuriant. Trecem cu privirile captivate de rezervația de pini (din care de asemenea se produce un lichior special) și cea a pădurilor de lauri. Insulele Canare au privilegiul de a fi unicul loc din lume în care acestea se mai găsesc în stare naturală, ca urmare a unei clime faborabile constante. Paradoxal deși altitudinea nu este mare (circa 800 de metri) senzația de amețeală este foarte frecventă. Ca și cum ai aborda Everestul. Poate frumusețea locului și aerul curat influențează percepția turistului. Moț peste toate, și asta ne-a plăcut la fel de mult, a fost Centrul de informare turistică. Foarte bine garnisit cu materiale de promovare gratuite în toate limbile internaționale, a fost amplasat în vârful muntelui. Muzeu alături, ghizi bine informați, totul deschis non-stop. Spaniolii știu de mult că mașinăria turismul se mișcă tot timpul. Asta dacă vrei să faci bani!
\r\nȘi încă o mică surpiză. La reîntoarcerea spre navă intrăm în discuții prietenești cu ghidul. Îi este cunoscută limba pe care o vorbim. Îi spunem că suntem din România. Atunci se luminează la față, aici în Gran Canaria, la mai bine de șase ore de zbor de București. ”Știam eu! Mă bucur să vă cunosc. Iubesc România, soția mea este Constanța!” Ne îmbrățișăm cu sufletul larg. Poate ne vom revedea. Cine știe! Lumea turismului e mare și mică. Nava ridică ancora. Mâine ne vom reîntoarce acasă, pe uscat!

Asta nu pentru că i-ar despărți bariere culturale și sociale ci pentru că pur și simplu proiectul lui Alex, susținut de proprietari, nu ar fi devenit realizabil aici, pe Valea Doftanei. Chef Alex, este Alexandru Dumitru un tip interesant căruia în mod sigur îi plac provocările culinare. A plecat să lucreze în străinătate ”tocmai pentru că voiam să mă dezvolt profesional și să călătoresc”. A avut ambiția dar și șansa de a lucra în ”bucătării cu stele Michelin”, mai întâi la Berlin (Waldorf Astoria, Les Soliste by Pierre Gagnaire), după care a luat drumul Californiei unde a descoperit o parte din lumea Zagat a gastronomiei. ”Los Angeles și Nappa Valley au fost stațiile în care m-am oprit. Experiența de la Auberge du Soleil (Nappa) a fost sus de tot. Bucătarul de la care am furat cel mai mult rămâne Robert Curry. Oamenii din breaslă m-au impresionat, se comportă cu modestie rară. În America am observat că toți bucătarii sunt deschiși să dăruiască, să te învețe cât mai mult și asta contat extrem de mult în formarea mea”. Chef Alex s-a întors în România anul trecut răspunzând la o invitație-provocare de a pune în practică la pensiunea ATRA, două concepte care se îmbină de minune - Fine Dining și Farm to Table. ”Mă regăsesc în ambele. Știu că e greu, sunt concepte pe care sper să le fac să crească. Principalul obstacol îl reprezintă furnizorii, ce ar trebui să fie producători locali. A trebuit să-i găsesc, să văd cum lucrează, cum gândesc. Mi-am propus să valorific cât mai multe din resursele locale naturale, mergem pe chestiuni simple pe care trebuie să le păstrăm la un nivel de calitate constant. Am căutat în piețe locale, am căutat pe dealuri și munți. În plus ne-am creat propria grădină, de unde ne asigurăm o parte din vegetale, legume și plante aromatice. Dacă vom reuși în viitorii cinci ani să folosim peste 40% ingrediente locale vom vorbi de un succes enorm.”
\r\nFurnizorii!? În regia discretă a întâlnirii noastre, coordonată din umbră de Mariana Popa, omul cu marketingul la Pensiunea ATRA, a venit pe ”scenă” Rareș Constantinescu. Are 30 de ani și a cumulat o experiență foarte diversă. El este omul cu brânzeturile și cașcavalul. Arată ca scos din cutie și nici n-ai spune că a venit de la stână. ”Eu sunt un băiat de asfalt, am trăit în București. N-am avut tangență cu oaia și vaca. Am plecat în Europa, am lucrat în domeniul marketingului și publicității în Italia în regiunea Veneto. Am fost și șofer pe o dubă de transport, iar după aia m-am reîntors la publicitate. Intenția mea a fost să dezvolt ceva al meu în Italia dar costa prea mult. Așa că m-am întors acasă și, împreună cu rudele mele care se pricep la brânzeturi ne-am apucat să facem o mică fermă aici în munții Doftanei. Am pornit din 2012 cu capital propriu, am cumpărat animale, am investit în mijloace de transport și tehnologii de prelucrare. Ne-am dorit o afacere independentă. Am pornit cu peste 20.000 de lei. Acum am ajuns să producem brânzeturi de calitate, preferatele fiind telemeaua și cașcaveaua. Am avut norocul să-l întâlnesc pe managerul pensiunii cu care am mers pe o dublă colaborare: furnizez pensiunii produse iar sus la munte am dezvoltat turismul la stână cu experiențe inedite”. Dincolo de pasiune Rareș, care se gândește să crească numărul de vaci, se lovește de un aspect foarte greu de rezolvat. Nu găsește în zonă forță de muncă. Tinerii nu mai vor la coada vacii. Oamenii din sat sunt foarte reținuți, au o mentalitate închisă. ”Poate așa aș fi rămas și eu, dacă nu aș fi plecat să lucrez în străinătate. Am o viziune, și cred că acesta ar putea fi drumul pentru a dezvolta afacerea. Să integrez activitatea mea într-un proiect susținut de fonduri europene. Vom vedea!”
\r\nLeontin Alexe este un alt furnizor al pensiunii ATRA. El este omul cu ciupercile și fructele de pădure. Desfășoară această activitate de vreo 7 ani. S-a intresectat într-o piață locală cu Chef Alex care i-a propus să livreze regulat, când e sezon, produse proaspete pentru restaurantul pensiunii. Omul e plin de povești, inclusiv cu întâlniri cu urșii, la zmeură, la mure, la afine, aventuri din care a scăpat nevătămat. Adică vrea să ne spună că ”viața asta de culegător nu e deloc simplă, are riscurile ei. Cât despre animalele pădurii, trebuie să ști cum să le iei. De când colaborez cu ATRA aș putea spune că îmi e cu mult foarte bine.”
\r\nAm lăsat la sfârșit recitalul fine dining semnat de Chef Alex. Din cele 7 prezentări, ce au pus în valoare materii prime proaspete, locale, ne-au reținut atenția în mod special Pieptul de rață cu piure de verdețuri, cartofi noi copți și fasole verde (excelent gust); Ceaiul din izmă și cimbrișor (notă maximă pentru design gastronomic), respectiv Urda frecată cu măceșe, fagure de miere și migdale (desert de top ce reunește aromele locale și experiențele internaționale). Loboda de grădină, Păstravul afumat, Consommeul din ciuperci sălbatice și Gnocchi din cartofi făcuți în casă - sunt feluri pe care vă invităm să le descoperiți restaurantul ATRA.

Astfel câștigător a devenit locul 2 (ca punctaj), ocupat de către Alexandru Mihai Nenciu. „Logo-ul creat de mine încearcă să spună o poveste, să reconstituie etapele unei istorii, prin stilizarea a patru edificii-simbol ale Bucureștiului: Arcul de Triumf, Palatul CEC, Ateneul Român și Arena Națională.

\r\nConform unui studiu recent realizat de către firma britanică Carspring, Taxi Price Index - 2017, Bucureștiul se află în Top 5 - cele mai scăzute tarife, ocupând poziția a 3-a (1,31 euro) , după Cairo și Mumbai fiind urmat de Jakarta și Mexico City. Specialiștii au analizat tarifele pentru 3 kilometri, practicate pe ruta aeroport-centrul orașului din 80 de metropole turistice de pe mapamond.

Pe scena amplasată în fața Peșterii Muierilor au concertat cele mai iubite trupe ale rock-ului românesc: Trooper, Altar, Bucovina, ZOB, Alex and The Fat Penguins și mulți alții.”SlowRiders RC aniversează 5 ani de prietenie și plimbări moto, 5 ani de existență și responsabilitate în trafic. Ne-am dorit ca această cifră să fie sărbătorită cum se cuvine și am ales un loc în inima Carpaților, plin de frumusețe și spirit liber”, a declarat Bogdan Mitu, președintele SlowRiders RC. Slowride Transalpina Fest a marcat cu acest prilej încă o premieră: în cadrul paradei moto organizate pe 15 iulie, pe Transalpina, a fost format un tricolor uriaș din motociclete.

În acest an, topul celor mai căutate destinații de vară reconfirmă zone din Grecia și Turcia, dar vine și cu o nouă vedetă estivală: Spania. Această destinație a crescut per general cu 300% față de anul trecut, în special datorită zborurilor directe din provincie. ”Pentru Mallorca, de exemplu, avem zboruri directe nu doar din București, ci și din Cluj-Napoca sau Timișoara. Până de curând, Tenerife era considerată o destinație exclusivistă. Am reușit să oferim pachete cu un raport calitate-preț foarte bun. Conform statisticilor de vânzări pe care le avem la sfârșitul lunii iulie, numărul de turiști care au ales în acest sezon să meargă în vacanță cu agenția noastră depășește 150.000. În acest moment, avem un grad de ocupare de 75% și suntem în creștere cu 10% față de perioada similară anului trecut - a declarat Marius Pandel, CEO Christian Tour. (C.

Ambasadorul Regatului Norvegiei în România, doamna Tove Bruvik Westberg, a vorbit, în cadrul unei conferințe de presă, desfășurată la Hanul Gabroveni (obiectiv restaurat cu ajutorul unor fonduri în cadrul Granturilor SEE 2007-2009), despre rezultatele pozitive obținute. Au fost menționate și prioritățile următoarei perioade de finanțare 2014-2021, în valoare totală de 502,5 milioane euro. (ALEX BARBU)\r\n\r\nSTREET FOOD, PAPA BUN\r\nDupă ce în ultimii ani a fost găzduit de mai multe orașe, conceptul de street food a devenit din 2017 un festival urban gastronomic: Street Food Festival (SFF). El a debutat la Oradea (în luna mai), va ajunge în 9 orașe (Iași, Sibiu, Arad, Cluj-Napoca, Brașov, Alba Iulia, Bacău) și se va încheia în septembrie la Timișoara. ”Festivalul are o dinamică impresionantă de la o ediție la alta. Ne adaptăm la tot ce e nou, ne bucurăm de sprijinul necesar din partea autorităților dar și al unor sponsori și parteneri de nădejde” - afirmă Nely Borza, Project Manager SFF.

Participanții au vizitat obiective istorice și culturale giurgiuvene din apropierea Bucureștiului, precum Conacul Anghelescu din Bucșani, biserica Sf. Arhangheli Mihail și Gavriil din Clejani. “Cicloturiștii s-au relaxat, s-au bucurat de apropierea de natură, de bunătățile pregătite de oameni primitori din zonă, precum și de demonstrațiile realizate de meșteșugarii locali. Cum muzica, dansul și gastronomia unesc oameni diferiți, evenimentul a atras turiști care apreciază autenticitatea”, a spus Mircea Crisbășanu, organizatorul turului din partea Asociației ROI și a Outhentic Cycling Romania. Următorul tur cicloturistic a avut loc pe 15 august la Potlogi. Evenimentul „Pedalăm pe urmele istoriei la Bucșani, Clejani și Bulbucata” este organizat de către Outhentic Cycling Romania și Asociația ROI, cu susținerea OMV Petrom.

\r\n\r\nAșa s-a întâmplat și în această vară la Washington, unde o zi din patru a fost dedicată unui târg profesional Mediamarket Place -, care aduce față în față sute de reprezentanți din branșa comunicării și a celor conexe turismului.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6073,6074,6075,6076,6078,6077,6079,6080,6081,6082,6083,6084\"]\r\n\r\nCum stau lucrurile la nivelul SUA? Roger Dow, Președinte și CEO al US Travel Association a continuat cu ideile pe care le-a dezvoltat în ultimii ani. Turismul internațional este foarte important pentru State. ”Anul trecut călătorii sosiți din toate colțurile lumii au cheltuit 246 de miliarde de dolari pe pachete complexe de servicii (transport, cazare, tratamente medicale, activități de loisir, turism în parcuri naturale și de distracții etc). Dacă scoatem din această schemă Canada și Mexicul avem venituri de 207 miliarde de dolari (circa 84%) furnizate de turiștii din întreaga lume. În medie cheltuielile per turist s-au ridicat în 2015 la 4.337 de dolari per sejur. La rândul lor americanii au cheltuit în afara granițelor SUA 159 de miliarde de dolari astfel că profitul turismului american a fost anul trecut de 87 de miliarde de dolari, cel mai mare comparativ cu celelalte sectoare ale economiei americane” - a anunțat Dow.\r\n\r\nELLIOTT L. FERGUSON - ”Reprezentăm un oraș fabulos !”\r\n\r\nRegia conferințelor de presă aduce întotdeauna în prim plan orașul gazdă al IPW. A fost rândul Washington-ului. Elliott L. Ferguson Președintele și CEO Destination DC, a etalat o parte din atuurile turistice ale metropolei. Un transport comun care acoperă la superlativ o suprafață de 68 de mile pătrate. Un oraș ce oferă vizitatorilor mixturi inedite. Creative, culturale, un shopping de calitate, minunate nopți albe petrecute în faimoasele sale restaurante cotate cu stele Michelin ori Zagat. ”Reprezentăm orașul care oferă cele mai multe intrări libere la muzee. Smithsonian, de exemplu, pune la dispoziție acces gratuit în toate cele 16 muzee de la Washington. Printre ele National Air Space Museum, National Museum of African American History & Culture și, evident, National Zoo, unde cea mai căutată viețuitoare este puiul de panda...Bei Bei. În materie de turism gastronomic anul trecut s-a înregistrat o premieră: a apărut primul Ghid Michelin dedicat restaurantelor din oraș. În același timp ni s-au decernat și titlulurile de ”Restaurant City of the Year” de către Bon Apetit, respectiv ”Hottest Food City” de către Zagat.com - evidenția președintele Fergusson. Firește, din punct de vedere turistic politica și istoria au conturat un tablou cu atracții monumentale ce alcătuiesc primul set de obiective de vizitat. Memorialele dedicate președinților americani Abraham Lincoln sau George Washington, faimosul obelisc, monumente dedicate eroilor țării, artera National Mall, deschisă publicului non-stop etc. Culoarea locală, farmecul special al orașului îl veți găsi la Capitol Hill. Domnul Fergusson ne invită la o incursiune imaginară: ”Iubesc Capitol Hill, cu parcurile sale verzi, cu Eastern Market, legendarul 9:30 Club ori faimosul Howard Theatre, colecțiile de artă modernă de la Dupont Circle ori spectacolele de la Arena Stage”. Lor și se alătură autobuzele turistice, minicroazierele pe râul Potomac, dar și parfumul dulce amărui lăsat peste serile orașului de 15.000 de cireși și vișini, plantați de-a lungul arterelor. Aceștia au inspirat ”Cherry blossom Festival”, dedicat anual miracolului primăverii. Toate aceste simboluri sunt suporturi ale mesajelor lansate prin ”My DC Cool” cea mai recentă campanie de promovare turistică. Fergusson a făcut și un gest elegant care ne-a impresionat profesional. A mulțumit printr-un mail tuturor jurnaliștilor de turism prezenți, pentru contribuția lor la promovarea turismului american. Așa se face în lumea bună.\r\n\r\nFRED DIXON - ”Welkoming the World”\r\n\r\nCu ce noutăți a venit New York-ul ? ”Orașul a avut în 2016 un număr record de turiști internaționali - 12,7 milioane.

Legendara diversitate a orașului, spiritul său deschis și primitor sunt întărite prin campania aflată în derulare ”Welcoming the World” - a anunțat Fred Dixon, președinte și CEO al NYC & Company. El a prezentat jurnaliștilor de turism câteva proiecte ce vor susține această dinamică. ”Seaport District” va fi dezvoltat pe cheiul 17, printr-o regenerare urbană a unui spațiu industrial, până în 2018. În State Island, vor apărea în 2018 The New York Wheel și Empire Outlet of Destination St. George.

Avem ceva de oferit fiecărui turist care ne vizitează” - a subliniat Graham.\r\n\r\nCAROLINE BETETA - ”Covorul roșu se află la picioarele turiștilor !”\r\n\r\nCalifornia a fost prezentă la fiecare show de presă de la IPW-ul ultimilor ani. Caroline Beteta, o veche cunoștință a noastră, este azi președinte și CEO al Visit California. Turismul se află în continuă creștere în ”Statul de aur” al Americii. Anul trecut a primit peste 17 milioane de turiști. Au început deja pregătirile pentru IPW-ul din 2019. Ca o idee campaniile de promovare care construiesc acest eveniment, coordonate sub sloganul ”All Drreams Welcome”, au un buget total de aproximativ 70 de milioane de dolari. ”Prin toate platformele noastre de comunicare propagăm același mesaj către turiștii internaționali. Vă așteptăm cu covorul roșu la picioare” - a anunțat președintele Beteta.\r\n\r\nRICHARD SCHARF - ”Vă așteptăm în 2018 în Colorado !”\r\n\r\nPână atunci ne vom întâlni la Denver. Anul viitor acest oraș și Colorado va găzdui IPW. Va fi spectacol turistic - a anunțat Richard Scharf, președinte și CEO Visit Denver, Convention & Visitors Bureau. ”IPW este cel mai important târg de turism din Americi. Este o mare onoare pentru Denver să găzduiască cel mai important eveniment al industriei noastre turistice. Este și o ocazie minunată de a ne promova mai puternic pe plan internațional. Denver nu este numai o destinație culturală, cu faimosul său Red Rocks Park & Amphiteatre, gazdă a unor concerte memorabile. Denver deține o celebră stațiune de schi - Aspen, Denver este considerat unul dintre cele mai bune locuri în care să trăiești, după standardele americanilor, fiind conectat zilnic de zboruri directe către 23 de aeroporturi internaționale. Turiștii au la dispoziție 10.000 de camere de hotel iar industria locală e susținută de peste 55.000 de angajați devotați.

Roger Dow, Președinte și CEO al US Travel Association a continuat cu ideile pe care le-a dezvoltat în ultimii ani. Turismul internațional este foarte important pentru State. ”Anul trecut călătorii sosiți din toate colțurile lumii au cheltuit 246 de miliarde de dolari pe pachete complexe de servicii (transport, cazare, tratamente medicale, activități de loisir, turism în parcuri naturale și de distracții etc). Dacă scoatem din această schemă Canada și Mexicul avem venituri de 207 miliarde de dolari (circa 84%) furnizate de turiștii din întreaga lume. În medie cheltuielile per turist s-au ridicat în 2015 la 4.337 de dolari per sejur. La rândul lor americanii au cheltuit în afara granițelor SUA 159 de miliarde de dolari astfel că profitul turismului american a fost anul trecut de 87 de miliarde de dolari, cel mai mare comparativ cu celelalte sectoare ale economiei americane” - a anunțat Dow.\r\n\r\nELLIOTT L. FERGUSON - ”Reprezentăm un oraș fabulos !”\r\n\r\nRegia conferințelor de presă aduce întotdeauna în prim plan orașul gazdă al IPW. A fost rândul Washington-ului. Elliott L. Ferguson Președintele și CEO Destination DC, a etalat o parte din atuurile turistice ale metropolei. Un transport comun care acoperă la superlativ o suprafață de 68 de mile pătrate. Un oraș ce oferă vizitatorilor mixturi inedite. Creative, culturale, un shopping de calitate, minunate nopți albe petrecute în faimoasele sale restaurante cotate cu stele Michelin ori Zagat. ”Reprezentăm orașul care oferă cele mai multe intrări libere la muzee. Smithsonian, de exemplu, pune la dispoziție acces gratuit în toate cele 16 muzee de la Washington. Printre ele National Air Space Museum, National Museum of African American History & Culture și, evident, National Zoo, unde cea mai căutată viețuitoare este puiul de panda...Bei Bei. În materie de turism gastronomic anul trecut s-a înregistrat o premieră: a apărut primul Ghid Michelin dedicat restaurantelor din oraș. În același timp ni s-au decernat și titlulurile de ”Restaurant City of the Year” de către Bon Apetit, respectiv ”Hottest Food City” de către Zagat.com - evidenția președintele Fergusson. Firește, din punct de vedere turistic politica și istoria au conturat un tablou cu atracții monumentale ce alcătuiesc primul set de obiective de vizitat. Memorialele dedicate președinților americani Abraham Lincoln sau George Washington, faimosul obelisc, monumente dedicate eroilor țării, artera National Mall, deschisă publicului non-stop etc. Culoarea locală, farmecul special al orașului îl veți găsi la Capitol Hill. Domnul Fergusson ne invită la o incursiune imaginară: ”Iubesc Capitol Hill, cu parcurile sale verzi, cu Eastern Market, legendarul 9:30 Club ori faimosul Howard Theatre, colecțiile de artă modernă de la Dupont Circle ori spectacolele de la Arena Stage”. Lor și se alătură autobuzele turistice, minicroazierele pe râul Potomac, dar și parfumul dulce amărui lăsat peste serile orașului de 15.000 de cireși și vișini, plantați de-a lungul arterelor. Aceștia au inspirat ”Cherry blossom Festival”, dedicat anual miracolului primăverii. Toate aceste simboluri sunt suporturi ale mesajelor lansate prin ”My DC Cool” cea mai recentă campanie de promovare turistică. Fergusson a făcut și un gest elegant care ne-a impresionat profesional. A mulțumit printr-un mail tuturor jurnaliștilor de turism prezenți, pentru contribuția lor la promovarea turismului american. Așa se face în lumea bună.\r\n\r\nFRED DIXON - ”Welkoming the World”\r\n\r\nCu ce noutăți a venit New York-ul ? ”Orașul a avut în 2016 un număr record de turiști internaționali - 12,7 milioane. Datorită proiectelor noastre aflate în desfășurare vom genera o creștere a capacității de cazare de la 113.000 camere la 137.000 în 2019. Legendara diversitate a orașului, spiritul său deschis și primitor sunt întărite prin campania aflată în derulare ”Welcoming the World” - a anunțat Fred Dixon, președinte și CEO al NYC & Company. El a prezentat jurnaliștilor de turism câteva proiecte ce vor susține această dinamică. ”Seaport District” va fi dezvoltat pe cheiul 17, printr-o regenerare urbană a unui spațiu industrial, până în 2018. În State Island, vor apărea în 2018 The New York Wheel și Empire Outlet of Destination St. George. În viitorii doi ani vor mai fi finalizate The Hudson Yards Project cu ”The Kessel”, o construcție futuristă cu 15 etaje, respectiv Observation Deck, ce va deține cel mai înalt punct de observare în spațiu deschis din New York.\r\n\r\nJULIA GRAHAM - ”Philadelphia e locul iubirii frățești!”\r\n\r\nLa rândul său Julia Coker Graham, președinte și CEO al Philadelphia Convention & Visitors Bureau a anunțat că Philadelphia, un oraș încărcat de istorie și delicat ca o ilustrată poștală, este primul oraș american ce a intrat pe listele UNESCO. ”Orașul iubirii frățești, își întâmpină vizitatorii cu un nou muzeu, cel al Revoluției Americane, precum și cu substanțiale îmbunătățiri aduse infrastructurii aeriene și urbane. Avem ceva de oferit fiecărui turist care ne vizitează” - a subliniat Graham.\r\n\r\nCAROLINE BETETA - ”Covorul roșu se află la picioarele turiștilor !”\r\n\r\nCalifornia a fost prezentă la fiecare show de presă de la IPW-ul ultimilor ani. Caroline Beteta, o veche cunoștință a noastră, este azi președinte și CEO al Visit California. Turismul se află în continuă creștere în ”Statul de aur” al Americii. Anul trecut a primit peste 17 milioane de turiști. Au început deja pregătirile pentru IPW-ul din 2019. Ca o idee campaniile de promovare care construiesc acest eveniment, coordonate sub sloganul ”All Drreams Welcome”, au un buget total de aproximativ 70 de milioane de dolari. ”Prin toate platformele noastre de comunicare propagăm același mesaj către turiștii internaționali. Vă așteptăm cu covorul roșu la picioare” - a anunțat președintele Beteta.\r\n\r\nRICHARD SCHARF - ”Vă așteptăm în 2018 în Colorado !”\r\n\r\nPână atunci ne vom întâlni la Denver. Anul viitor acest oraș și Colorado va găzdui IPW. Va fi spectacol turistic - a anunțat Richard Scharf, președinte și CEO Visit Denver, Convention & Visitors Bureau. ”IPW este cel mai important târg de turism din Americi. Este o mare onoare pentru Denver să găzduiască cel mai important eveniment al industriei noastre turistice. Este și o ocazie minunată de a ne promova mai puternic pe plan internațional. Denver nu este numai o destinație culturală, cu faimosul său Red Rocks Park & Amphiteatre, gazdă a unor concerte memorabile. Denver deține o celebră stațiune de schi - Aspen, Denver este considerat unul dintre cele mai bune locuri în care să trăiești, după standardele americanilor, fiind conectat zilnic de zboruri directe către 23 de aeroporturi internaționale. Turiștii au la dispoziție 10.000 de camere de hotel iar industria locală e susținută de peste 55.000 de angajați devotați. Orașul a consemnat 16,4 milioane de înnoptări, și a absorbit din bugetele vizitatorilor un total de 5 miliarde de dolari. Vă așteptăm împreună cu mascota noastră, ursul albastru, să promovați acest eveniment și să contribuiți la prosperitatea comunității turistice”.

\r\n\r\nUZLINA - Legenda lui Cornel Găină\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6061,6062,6063,6064,6065,6066\"]\r\n\r\nSuntem la Uzlina. Undeva de pe mal îl aud pe Cornel Găină strigând. ”Hei, gata cu piscina și leneveala. Echiparea, că azi plecați la turism de aventură! Dacă a fost sau nu vorbim când vă întoarceți!” Am mormăit, am bombănit, dar asta-i viața, dacă-i ordin, cu plăcere. Dacă-mi amintesc bine, am și zis înciudat printre dinți ceva de genul, la naiba aventură, aici între ape, unde s-a întâlnit mutu cu surdu. Asta e! Șalupa silențioasă toarce încet în așteptare. Cornel are vreo 6 și a fost printre primii care au introdus acest tip de bărci în Delta Dunării. Omul a devenit o legendă vie pentru că, printre altele, a revitalizat prin investiția sa - e proprietarul complexului Cormoranul - satul Uzlina, care mai avea câțiva locuitori iar acum a ajuns să ofere câteva zeci de pensiuni de vacanță. Prin 2004 în Ghidul României, ediție din colecția ”Blue Evasion” a editurii Hachette, autorii francezi scriau astfel: ”Cornel Găină a făcut din insula Uzlina un adevărat mic paradis”. Și a făcut. A început cu mai bine de 25 de ani în urmă cu o pensiune pentru familie. Prin 2000 a inaugurat un hotel cochet cu facilități moderne iar ulterior, a construit un sat de vacanță cu case alb-albastre, cu acoperișuri de stuf, încadrat de o grădină și o mică livadă. În cunoștință de cauză vă pot spune că două piersici cântăresc peste un kilogram. Ce are asta cu afacerile? Păi are, pentru că numele omului din fața mea este legat de multe momente importante ale turismului post-decembrist. A înființat împreună cu Gheorghe Fodoreanu, Simpa Turism, care a fost una dintre primele agenții de turism private din România. A fost primul președinte al Asociației Naționale a Agențiilor de Turism (ANAT), iar înainte de ‘89, a asimilat experiențe parisiene, urmând pe rând o Școală de turism la Club Mediteranee și un curs de publicitate la Havas, una dintre cele mai mari agenții de publicitate din Europa. A fost pe rând directorul Birourilor de turism ale României de la Paris (în 1986 aveam un buget anual de promovare de 4,5 milioane de dolari) respectiv Bruxelles. Revoluția l-a prins la ONT Carpați. Acum înțelegeți cât de vie este această legendă.\r\n\r\nLETEA - Legenda lui Omar\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6068,6069,6070,6071\"]\r\n\r\nȘalupa se desprinde de mal. Motorul toarce simetric. Alunecăm și savurăm liniștea de la începutul lumii îndreptându-ne pe canalele liniștite spre satul Letea unde ni s-a promis o tură de aventură. Care nu are legătură nici cu pescuitul, nici cu vânătoarea de imagini, nici cu gastronomia multiculturală. Hei, glumiți? Ei bine, nu! Letea trece de mai mulți ani prin transformări dictate de nevoi. Oamenii îmbătrânesc, pescuitul nu mai e suficient pentru a supraviețui. Tinerii, câți au rămas, vor să trăiască altfel. Turiștii le bat la ușă și de voie, de nevoie, au început să capete încredere în ceea ce fac. Bine, prima partitură este tot pescuitul. Au apărut la mal șalupe moderne, semn că se fac bani. O pensiune s-a deschis prin 2008, construită cu fonduri europene, alta va apărea în curând. Satul arată însă ca la începutul lumii iar lumea din nordul Deltei și estul comunei C.A.Rosetti, ascunde comori ce se lasă greu descoperite. Dacă porniți spre Letea să nu uitați că: din cele 20 de rezervații din interiorul Rezervației Biosferei Delta Dunării, în pădurea Letea pot fi văzute circa o treime din totalul speciilor de plante ce trăiesc în România (1830, dintre care 195 de specii de plante medicinale); tot aici se află cele mai mari suprafețe acoperite cu stuf de pe glob și două păduri unice în Europa (Letea și Caraorman) din stejari seculari și liane mediteraneene. Ghidul vă mai poate spune că aria protejată e ocrotită încă din 1930, dar a devenit rezervație naturală în 1938. Pădurea a crescut sub formă de fâșii (hasmacuri) iar între dunele de nisip (înalte de 10-20 metri) veți întâlni formațiuni de stejari de luncă, sacâmi de sute de ani, brumării, plop alb, frasin de luncă, tei alb, dar și zece specii de... orhidee. O frumusețe de junglă. Peste astea au năvălit plante cățărătoare ca vița sălbatică, curpenul de păduri și liana grecească, care oferă pădurii un aspect mediteranean. Printre ele mișună peste 2.000 de specii de insecte, vipera de stepă, dar și vulturul codalb, trei specii de șoim, printre care șoimulețul de seară, pupăza, prigoria, dumbrăveanca, corbul etc.\r\nEi, hai, nu vă speriați! Ajungeți aici cu jepp-uri transformate în mașini de safari. Ca-n Africa! După ce străbateți vreo patru kilometri pe un drum desprins parcă din deșerturile Nevadei (lipsesc doar stâncile roșii), veți constata că a meritat. Nu veți mai avea nevoie de ședințe de masaj sau wellness. După atâtea zdruncinături veți fi ca noi. Scapă cine poate! Rezervația este bine organizată, cu podețe care formează un drum, ce vă protejează de eventuale... pericole. Excursia vă introduce în cea mai nordică pădure subtropicală din Europa și singura pădure de stejar din lume crescută pe un grind maritim. Pădurea Letea. Dincolo de o parte din ea, după ce veți urca un deal de nisip veți intra într-un deșert de... legendă, cu nisip argintiu, foarte fin. Este locul magic, cel mai misterios din rezervație deși se spune că există multe zone secrete, ce ascund comorile îngropate de pirați ori haiduci. În mod sigur aici a fost cândva marea și a ajuns corabia lui... Omar sau Omer. Ghidul însoțitor încearcă să ne convingă că sub nisipuri se află o corabie, ale cărei catarge au fost văzute în vechime de bunicii ori străbunicii localnicilor, în majoritatea lor ucrainieni. În jurul corabiei lui Omer s-au împletit atâtea filoane încât cel mai bine e să le vinzi pe toate ca pachet de... legende. Ascultați! Documente istorice din lumea turcă, de unde s-ar trage și denumirea de Letea, amintesc de Pașa Nedil, un guvernator al Deltei care avea o iubită - Lete. El a dat numele ei așezării astfel că pe la 1800 era menționată pe o hartă franceză ca Letea, tărâmul hoholilor. Altă variantă, și asta ni s-a părut fabuloasă -, vorbește de un convoi de ambarcațiuni grecești care trasporta semințe. O corabie a fost prinsă de reflux iar pentru a scăpa de greutate, marinarii au aruncat sacii cu ghinde stejar. Cu toate acestea vasul nu a mai putut pleca. Din ghinde s-a născut la scurt timp pădurea Letea. Ce ar purta numele soției armatorului Lethe ( ce înseamnă în greaca veche, uitare sau ascundere). Împotmoliți aici, marinarii au întemeiat aici prima așezare. Veți mai auzi și de un Omer Pașa, căruia i se mai spunea Omer cel Negru. El aștepta câteva corăbii cu soldați pentru a-l înfrânge pe domnitorul român. A fost învins în pădurea Orman Deli, tăiat de Mihai Viteazul pe la 1595, și a murit aproape de locul în care se află azi orașul Negru Vodă (Kara Omer). Și dacă era vorba de pădurea Caraorman? Și iată-ne din nou la Letea.\r\nLuăm drumul înapoi spre micul port al așezării. Nu înainte de a mai privi la caii sălbatici, sau semisălbatici, pentru că localnicii au început să renunțe la creșterea lor. Costă prea mult întreținerea, iar mașinile sunt mai economice și folositoare.\r\nȘi totuși poezia naturii rămâne ca și la Lacul (ghiolul) Sărat. O baltă de vreo 200 de metri pătrați cu o adâncime de 3-4 metri, alții spun că vreo 18, puțin cunoscută de cercetători, alimentată permanent de un izvor subteran, cu proprietăți terapeutice miraculoase, care i-a vindecat de boli lumești pe mulți localnici. Unul dintre ei a înfipt pe mal, prin 1970, o cruce cu următoarea inscripție: ”În ziua cînd Hristos a Înviat/ Cine crede cu adevărat/ Prin credință va fi vindecat/ Amin!” De testat.\r\nNe reîntoarcem la complexul turistic Cormoranul, însoțiți tot drumul de un apus de soare ireal.

El aștepta câteva corăbii cu soldați pentru a-l înfrânge pe domnitorul român. A fost învins în pădurea Orman Deli, tăiat de Mihai Viteazul pe la 1595, și a murit aproape de locul în care se află azi orașul Negru Vodă (Kara Omer). Și dacă era vorba de pădurea Caraorman? Și iată-ne din nou la Letea.\r\nLuăm drumul înapoi spre micul port al așezării. Nu înainte de a mai privi la caii sălbatici, sau semisălbatici, pentru că localnicii au început să renunțe la creșterea lor. Costă prea mult întreținerea, iar mașinile sunt mai economice și folositoare.\r\nȘi totuși poezia naturii rămâne ca și la Lacul (ghiolul) Sărat. O baltă de vreo 200 de metri pătrați cu o adâncime de 3-4 metri, alții spun că vreo 18, puțin cunoscută de cercetători, alimentată permanent de un izvor subteran, cu proprietăți terapeutice miraculoase, care i-a vindecat de boli lumești pe mulți localnici. Unul dintre ei a înfipt pe mal, prin 1970, o cruce cu următoarea inscripție: ”În ziua cînd Hristos a Înviat/ Cine crede cu adevărat/ Prin credință va fi vindecat/ Amin!” De testat.\r\nNe reîntoarcem la complexul turistic Cormoranul, însoțiți tot drumul de un apus de soare ireal. Pe marginea Dunării, care curge ca viața noastră, de pe o bancă îl aud Cornel, întrebând: ”Mai vreți și mâine?”\r\n”Mâine”, adică numărul viitor, vom ateriza pe planeta...

Acest tip este ideal pentru Blue Air și piața pe care o deservește, crescând veniturile dar și performanțele operaționale” - a declarat la rîndul său Monty Oliver, Vicepreședinte European Sales, Boeing Commercial Airplanes. 737 MAX este avionul care a înregistrat cele mai rapide vânzări din istoria companiei Boeing, acumulând peste 3.700 de comenzi, de la 87 de clienți din întreaga lume.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU\r\n\r\nTRANSILVANIA TRAIN - urcați în vagoane !\r\n\r\nDouă agenții de turism au lansat ”Transilvania Train”, un concept de călătorie cu trenul unic în România. Cei interesați de călătorii și experiențe tradiționale vor explora o parte din cele mai frumoase zone ale Transilvaniei. Programul pilot se va desfășura în perioada 31 august -3 septembrie 2017 iar în funcție de audiența înregistrată va fi reeditat. Timp de patru zile, aproximativ două sute de participanți se vor bucura de un program flexibil și personalizat. Traseul trenului turistic va fi Brașov, Sighișoara, Mediaș, Alba- Iulia, Sebeș, Sibiu și Făgăraș. Participanții vor fi atrași de activități recreative și culturale precum work-shop-uri de țiglărie, dulgherie sau fierărie tradițională, arhitectură săsească, vizite la gospodării țărănești, biserici și cetăți medievale fortificate, în renumite crame, dar și de prânzuri câmpenești ori cine tradiționale în aer liber.\r\n\r\nPrima ediție a programului turistic ”Transilvania Train” este organizată prin parteneriatul cu CFR Călători. Trenul cuprinde cinci vagoane de tip bar-bistro. O echipă de treizeci de oameni va asista în permanență participanții, de la ghizi locali și însoțitori de tren, până la somelieri.

Specialiștii apreciază că a fost cel mai bun an din ultimul sfert de secol pentru industria de vacanțe. Astfel, conform Institutului Național de Statistică (INS) aproape 2,5 milioane de turiști străini au vizitat România. Dintre aceștia 1,1 milioane au ales Bucureștiul (în creștere cu 11,35%), ceea ce se traduce într-un câștig de peste 112.000 de turiști noi comparativ cu anul precedent. Capitala e secondată de județele Brașov cu 178.721 de turiști (+12.93%), Sibiu - 142.854 de turiști (+29.23%), Timiș - 101.048 de turiști (+10.48%), respectiv Cluj - 100.391 de turiști (+13.39%). La coada clasamentului, cei mai puțini călători străini au fost în județul Teleroman, doar puțin peste 1.200 în tot anul trecut.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6055,6056,6057,6058\"]\r\n\r\nAlte creșteri în preferințele vizitatorilor străini au înregistrat și județele Constanța, Arad, Hunedoara, Bacău, Galați, Mehedinți și Tulcea, însă nu se poate vorbi de valori semnificative. La polul opus se plasează județele Mureș, Dolj, Olt, Călărași, Giurgiu, Botoșani și Teleorman care au pierdut turiști între 2015 și 2016. Cea mai mare pierdere a înregistrat-o județul Mureș care a consemnat un minus de 7.000 de turiști față de anul precedent. Pe locul doi se află județul Dolj care a \"pierdut\", în aceeași perioadă, aproximativ 4.000 de turiști. Constante în preferințele turiștilor străini sunt județele Prahova, Covasna, Brăila, Vaslui, Gorj și Ialomița unde numărul turiștilor din străinătate a rămas asemănător cu cel din anul 2015. Un rezultat mai slab l-a înregistrat județul Constanța, cu doar 61.000 de turiști străini, mai puțini decât în județe precum Prahova, Mureș sau Bihor.\r\n\r\nCe-i atrage pe străini?\r\n\r\n„Principalul motiv al sejurului petrecut de turiștii nerezidenți în România, în anul 2016, l-au reprezentat afacerile, participarea la congrese, conferințe, cursuri, târguri și expoziții (57,6% din numărul total de turiști nerezidenți), cheltuielile acestora reprezentând 58,5% din total. Cel de-al doilea motiv l-au reprezentat călătoriile în scop particular (42,4% din numărul total de turiști nerezidenți), dintre acestea evidențiindu-se călătoriile pentru vacanțe (61,4%). Călătoriile în scop particular includ călătoriile pentru vacanțe, cumpărături, evenimente culturale și sportive, vizitarea prietenilor și rudelor, tratament medical, religie, tranzit și alte activități” - consemnează INS. Turiștii străini sosiți în România au cheltuit în medie 2.397 lei/persoană, anul trecut, principalul motiv pentru sejur fiind reprezentat de afaceri. Cheltuielile totale ale acestora s-au ridicat la 5,922 miliarde lei. Interesant de observat că din totalul nerezidenților sosiți în România doar 52,4% au apelat la serviciile unor agenții de turism, restul organizându-și singuri sejurul sau vizitele. Principalul mijloc de transport utilizat de turiștii nerezidenți pentru a sosi în țara noastră a fost avionul (79,2% din numărul total de turiști). Autoturismele proprii au reprezentat 14,4%, urmate de autocare și autobuze cu 4,9%, alte mijloace ( tren, ambarcațiuni fluviale, autoturisme inchiriate, motociclete etc.) 1,5%.\r\n\r\nCine sunt, unde stau ?\r\n\r\nConform aceleaiși surse România a oferit în 2016 circa 6.946 de structuri turistice, dintre care 1551 erau hoteluri. Majoritatea vizitatorilor străini provine din țări situate în Europa - 93%. Din totalul sosirilor vizitatorilor străini în România, 54% provin din statele Uniunii Europene. Cele mai multe sosiri ale turiștilor străini cazați în structurile de primire turistică cu funcțiuni de cazare au provenit din Germania - 281,7 mii, Israel - 251,9 mii, Italia - 233,8 mii, Franța - 145,6 mii ṣi Regatul Unit - 140,6 mii. Dintre statele Uniunii Europene cele mai multe sosiri s-au înregistrat din Ungaria - 28,3%, Bulgaria - 27,6%, Germania - 8,4%, Italia - 7,7%, Polonia - 5,5% și Franța - 3,6%.\r\n\r\nDurata medie a șederii în anul 2016 rămâne destul de scăzută, de numai 2,4 zile la turiștii români și 1,9 zile la cei străini. La rândul lor plecările vizitatorilor români în străinătate, înregistrate la punctele de frontieră, au fost în 2016 de 16128 mii, în creștere cu 22,9% comparativ cu 2015.\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON','ROMÂNIA - Un tablou optimist, TENDINTE nr.160-161','','inherit','closed','closed','','6043-revision-v1','','','2018-01-21 14:47:21','2018-01-21 12:47:21','',6043,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2018/01/21/6043-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6060,1,'2018-01-21 14:48:00','2018-01-21 12:48:00','','Delta doi 166','','inherit','open','closed','','delta-doi-166','','','2018-01-21 14:48:00','2018-01-21 12:48:00','',6041,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Delta-doi-166.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6061,1,'2018-01-21 14:48:24','2018-01-21 12:48:24','','Delta doi 101','','inherit','open','closed','','delta-doi-101','','','2018-01-21 14:48:24','2018-01-21 12:48:24','',6041,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Delta-doi-101.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6062,1,'2018-01-21 14:48:24','2018-01-21 12:48:24','','Delta doi 120','','inherit','open','closed','','delta-doi-120','','','2018-01-21 14:48:24','2018-01-21 12:48:24','',6041,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Delta-doi-120.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6063,1,'2018-01-21 14:48:25','2018-01-21 12:48:25','','Delta doi 152','','inherit','open','closed','','delta-doi-152','','','2018-01-21 14:48:25','2018-01-21 12:48:25','',6041,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Delta-doi-152.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6064,1,'2018-01-21 14:48:26','2018-01-21 12:48:26','','Delta doi 166','','inherit','open','closed','','delta-doi-166-2','','','2018-01-21 14:48:26','2018-01-21 12:48:26','',6041,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Delta-doi-166-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6065,1,'2018-01-21 14:48:26','2018-01-21 12:48:26','','Delta doi 441','','inherit','open','closed','','delta-doi-441','','','2018-01-21 14:48:26','2018-01-21 12:48:26','',6041,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Delta-doi-441.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6066,1,'2018-01-21 14:48:27','2018-01-21 12:48:27','','Delta doi 450','','inherit','open','closed','','delta-doi-450','','','2018-01-21 14:48:27','2018-01-21 12:48:27','',6041,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Delta-doi-450.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6067,1,'2018-01-21 14:48:41','2018-01-21 12:48:41','DELTA DUNĂRII - La pescuit de aventură\n\nE dimineață și pânza apelor s-a ridicat atât cât îi trebuie Deltei Dunării să devină șarmantă, misterioasă și seducătoare.

Undeva de pe mal îl aud pe Cornel Găină strigând. ”Hei, gata cu piscina și leneveala. Echiparea, că azi plecați la turism de aventură! Dacă a fost sau nu vorbim când vă întoarceți!” Am mormăit, am bombănit, dar asta-i viața, dacă-i ordin, cu plăcere. Dacă-mi amintesc bine, am și zis înciudat printre dinți ceva de genul, la naiba aventură, aici între ape, unde s-a întâlnit mutu cu surdu. Asta e! Șalupa silențioasă toarce încet în așteptare. Cornel are vreo 6 și a fost printre primii care au introdus acest tip de bărci în Delta Dunării. Omul a devenit o legendă vie pentru că, printre altele, a revitalizat prin investiția sa - e proprietarul complexului Cormoranul - satul Uzlina, care mai avea câțiva locuitori iar acum a ajuns să ofere câteva zeci de pensiuni de vacanță. Prin 2004 în Ghidul României, ediție din colecția ”Blue Evasion” a editurii Hachette, autorii francezi scriau astfel: ”Cornel Găină a făcut din insula Uzlina un adevărat mic paradis”. Și a făcut. A început cu mai bine de 25 de ani în urmă cu o pensiune pentru familie. Prin 2000 a inaugurat un hotel cochet cu facilități moderne iar ulterior, a construit un sat de vacanță cu case alb-albastre, cu acoperișuri de stuf, încadrat de o grădină și o mică livadă. În cunoștință de cauză vă pot spune că două piersici cântăresc peste un kilogram. Ce are asta cu afacerile? Păi are, pentru că numele omului din fața mea este legat de multe momente importante ale turismului post-decembrist. A înființat împreună cu Gheorghe Fodoreanu, Simpa Turism, care a fost una dintre primele agenții de turism private din România. A fost primul președinte al Asociației Naționale a Agențiilor de Turism (ANAT), iar înainte de ‘89, a asimilat experiențe parisiene, urmând pe rând o Școală de turism la Club Mediteranee și un curs de publicitate la Havas, una dintre cele mai mari agenții de publicitate din Europa. A fost pe rând directorul Birourilor de turism ale României de la Paris (în 1986 aveam un buget anual de promovare de 4,5 milioane de dolari) respectiv Bruxelles. Revoluția l-a prins la ONT Carpați. Acum înțelegeți cât de vie este această legendă.\n\nLETEA - Legenda lui Omar\n\nȘalupa se desprinde de mal. Motorul toarce simetric. Alunecăm și savurăm liniștea de la începutul lumii îndreptându-ne pe canalele liniștite spre satul Letea unde ni s-a promis o tură de aventură. Care nu are legătură nici cu pescuitul, nici cu vânătoarea de imagini, nici cu gastronomia multiculturală. Hei, glumiți? Ei bine, nu! Letea trece de mai mulți ani prin transformări dictate de nevoi. Oamenii îmbătrânesc, pescuitul nu mai e suficient pentru a supraviețui. Tinerii, câți au rămas, vor să trăiască altfel. Turiștii le bat la ușă și de voie, de nevoie, au început să capete încredere în ceea ce fac. Bine, prima partitură este tot pescuitul. Au apărut la mal șalupe moderne, semn că se fac bani. O pensiune s-a deschis prin 2008, construită cu fonduri europene, alta va apărea în curând. Satul arată însă ca la începutul lumii iar lumea din nordul Deltei și estul comunei C.A.Rosetti, ascunde comori ce se lasă greu descoperite. Dacă porniți spre Letea să nu uitați că: din cele 20 de rezervații din interiorul Rezervației Biosferei Delta Dunării, în pădurea Letea pot fi văzute circa o treime din totalul speciilor de plante ce trăiesc în România (1830, dintre care 195 de specii de plante medicinale); tot aici se află cele mai mari suprafețe acoperite cu stuf de pe glob și două păduri unice în Europa (Letea și Caraorman) din stejari seculari și liane mediteraneene. Ghidul vă mai poate spune că aria protejată e ocrotită încă din 1930, dar a devenit rezervație naturală în 1938. Pădurea a crescut sub formă de fâșii (hasmacuri) iar între dunele de nisip (înalte de 10-20 metri) veți întâlni formațiuni de stejari de luncă, sacâmi de sute de ani, brumării, plop alb, frasin de luncă, tei alb, dar și zece specii de... orhidee. O frumusețe de junglă. Peste astea au năvălit plante cățărătoare ca vița sălbatică, curpenul de păduri și liana grecească, care oferă pădurii un aspect mediteranean. Printre ele mișună peste 2.000 de specii de insecte, vipera de stepă, dar și vulturul codalb, trei specii de șoim, printre care șoimulețul de seară, pupăza, prigoria, dumbrăveanca, corbul etc.\nEi, hai, nu vă speriați! Ajungeți aici cu jepp-uri transformate în mașini de safari. Ca-n Africa! După ce străbateți vreo patru kilometri pe un drum desprins parcă din deșerturile Nevadei (lipsesc doar stâncile roșii), veți constata că a meritat. Nu veți mai avea nevoie de ședințe de masaj sau wellness. După atâtea zdruncinături veți fi ca noi. Scapă cine poate! Rezervația este bine organizată, cu podețe care formează un drum, ce vă protejează de eventuale... pericole. Excursia vă introduce în cea mai nordică pădure subtropicală din Europa și singura pădure de stejar din lume crescută pe un grind maritim. Pădurea Letea. Dincolo de o parte din ea, după ce veți urca un deal de nisip veți intra într-un deșert de... legendă, cu nisip argintiu, foarte fin. Este locul magic, cel mai misterios din rezervație deși se spune că există multe zone secrete, ce ascund comorile îngropate de pirați ori haiduci. În mod sigur aici a fost cândva marea și a ajuns corabia lui... Omar sau Omer. Ghidul însoțitor încearcă să ne convingă că sub nisipuri se află o corabie, ale cărei catarge au fost văzute în vechime de bunicii ori străbunicii localnicilor, în majoritatea lor ucrainieni. În jurul corabiei lui Omer s-au împletit atâtea filoane încât cel mai bine e să le vinzi pe toate ca pachet de... legende. Ascultați! Documente istorice din lumea turcă, de unde s-ar trage și denumirea de Letea, amintesc de Pașa Nedil, un guvernator al Deltei care avea o iubită - Lete. El a dat numele ei așezării astfel că pe la 1800 era menționată pe o hartă franceză ca Letea, tărâmul hoholilor. Altă variantă, și asta ni s-a părut fabuloasă -, vorbește de un convoi de ambarcațiuni grecești care trasporta semințe. O corabie a fost prinsă de reflux iar pentru a scăpa de greutate, marinarii au aruncat sacii cu ghinde stejar. Cu toate acestea vasul nu a mai putut pleca. Din ghinde s-a născut la scurt timp pădurea Letea. Ce ar purta numele soției armatorului Lethe ( ce înseamnă în greaca veche, uitare sau ascundere). Împotmoliți aici, marinarii au întemeiat aici prima așezare. Veți mai auzi și de un Omer Pașa, căruia i se mai spunea Omer cel Negru. El aștepta câteva corăbii cu soldați pentru a-l înfrânge pe domnitorul român. A fost învins în pădurea Orman Deli, tăiat de Mihai Viteazul pe la 1595, și a murit aproape de locul în care se află azi orașul Negru Vodă (Kara Omer). Și dacă era vorba de pădurea Caraorman? Și iată-ne din nou la Letea.\nLuăm drumul înapoi spre micul port al așezării. Nu înainte de a mai privi la caii sălbatici, sau semisălbatici, pentru că localnicii au început să renunțe la creșterea lor. Costă prea mult întreținerea, iar mașinile sunt mai economice și folositoare.\nȘi totuși poezia naturii rămâne ca și la Lacul (ghiolul) Sărat. O baltă de vreo 200 de metri pătrați cu o adâncime de 3-4 metri, alții spun că vreo 18, puțin cunoscută de cercetători, alimentată permanent de un izvor subteran, cu proprietăți terapeutice miraculoase, care i-a vindecat de boli lumești pe mulți localnici. Unul dintre ei a înfipt pe mal, prin 1970, o cruce cu următoarea inscripție: ”În ziua cînd Hristos a Înviat/ Cine crede cu adevărat/ Prin credință va fi vindecat/ Amin!” De testat.\nNe reîntoarcem la complexul turistic Cormoranul, însoțiți tot drumul de un apus de soare ireal.

Este momentul când începe unul dintre cele mai frumoase spectacole ale lumii. Pescarii privesc Delta ca pe un rezervor al existenței, cercetătorii ca pe spațiu unic pentru specii floristice ori faunistice. Turiștii, în funcție de așteptările cu care au plecat în vacanță.\r\n\r\n\r\nUZLINA - Legenda lui Cornel Găină\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6061,6062,6063,6064,6065,6066\"]\r\n\r\nSuntem la Uzlina. Undeva de pe mal îl aud pe Cornel Găină strigând. ”Hei, gata cu piscina și leneveala. Echiparea, că azi plecați la turism de aventură! Dacă a fost sau nu vorbim când vă întoarceți!” Am mormăit, am bombănit, dar asta-i viața, dacă-i ordin, cu plăcere. Dacă-mi amintesc bine, am și zis înciudat printre dinți ceva de genul, la naiba aventură, aici între ape, unde s-a întâlnit mutu cu surdu. Asta e! Șalupa silențioasă toarce încet în așteptare. Cornel are vreo 6 și a fost printre primii care au introdus acest tip de bărci în Delta Dunării. Omul a devenit o legendă vie pentru că, printre altele, a revitalizat prin investiția sa - e proprietarul complexului Cormoranul - satul Uzlina, care mai avea câțiva locuitori iar acum a ajuns să ofere câteva zeci de pensiuni de vacanță. Prin 2004 în Ghidul României, ediție din colecția ”Blue Evasion” a editurii Hachette, autorii francezi scriau astfel: ”Cornel Găină a făcut din insula Uzlina un adevărat mic paradis”. Și a făcut. A început cu mai bine de 25 de ani în urmă cu o pensiune pentru familie. Prin 2000 a inaugurat un hotel cochet cu facilități moderne iar ulterior, a construit un sat de vacanță cu case alb-albastre, cu acoperișuri de stuf, încadrat de o grădină și o mică livadă. În cunoștință de cauză vă pot spune că două piersici cântăresc peste un kilogram. Ce are asta cu afacerile? Păi are, pentru că numele omului din fața mea este legat de multe momente importante ale turismului post-decembrist. A înființat împreună cu Gheorghe Fodoreanu, Simpa Turism, care a fost una dintre primele agenții de turism private din România. A fost primul președinte al Asociației Naționale a Agențiilor de Turism (ANAT), iar înainte de ‘89, a asimilat experiențe parisiene, urmând pe rând o Școală de turism la Club Mediteranee și un curs de publicitate la Havas, una dintre cele mai mari agenții de publicitate din Europa. A fost pe rând directorul Birourilor de turism ale României de la Paris (în 1986 aveam un buget anual de promovare de 4,5 milioane de dolari) respectiv Bruxelles. Revoluția l-a prins la ONT Carpați.

Roger Dow, Președinte și CEO al US Travel Association a continuat cu ideile pe care le-a dezvoltat în ultimii ani. Turismul internațional este foarte important pentru State. ”Anul trecut călătorii sosiți din toate colțurile lumii au cheltuit 246 de miliarde de dolari pe pachete complexe de servicii (transport, cazare, tratamente medicale, activități de loisir, turism în parcuri naturale și de distracții etc). Dacă scoatem din această schemă Canada și Mexicul avem venituri de 207 miliarde de dolari (circa 84%) furnizate de turiștii din întreaga lume.

Roger Dow, Președinte și CEO al US Travel Association a continuat cu ideile pe care le-a dezvoltat în ultimii ani. Turismul internațional este foarte important pentru State. ”Anul trecut călătorii sosiți din toate colțurile lumii au cheltuit 246 de miliarde de dolari pe pachete complexe de servicii (transport, cazare, tratamente medicale, activități de loisir, turism în parcuri naturale și de distracții etc). Dacă scoatem din această schemă Canada și Mexicul avem venituri de 207 miliarde de dolari (circa 84%) furnizate de turiștii din întreaga lume.

La fiecare etaj el ofera salon cu bufet suedez. Investiția totală se ridică la circa 7 milioane de euro a declarat omul de afaceri Mohammad Murad, care controlează acest lanț. ”Am observat că cererea pe segmentul premium, aflată în permanentă creștere, este departe de a fi acoperită pe litoralul autohton. Prin aceasta ultimă investiție încerc să ofer condiții de calitate superioară - comparabile cu cele din Antalya, Dubai ori alte destinații externe -, care să-i determine pe mai mulți români să-și petreacă vacanțele în România”, spune Murad, care conduce, în același timp, și Federația Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR).\n\nHotelurile de 4 stele pe care le deține la Navodari cumuleaza în jur de 2.500 de locuri de cazare. După cum am mai anunțat într-un număr anterior lanțul hotelier Phoenicia va redeschide anul viitor pe litoral complexul hotelier Belvedere, Amfiteatru și Panoramic din Neptun Olimp, ce va fi clasificat la 3 și 4 stele, iar la Năvodari va construi un Boutique Hotel ce urmează să funcționeze la standardul de 5 stele plus.\n\nCOSTINEȘTI: O nouă abordare la Vox Maris\n\nÎn acest sezon complexul „Vox Maris Grand Resort” din Costineşti s-a relansat din 5 mai prin o serie de evenimente tematice dar şi cu oferte pentru toate categoriile de turişti.

Săptămânal, până la 31 august, vor fi organizate, la Clubul „Vox Maris”, petreceri cu DJ şi artişti internaţionali. El este promovat ca un produs complet şi exclusivist pe litoralul românesc.\n\n„Vox Maris este sigurul resort care se adresează tuturor categoriilor de clienţi datorită facilităţilor. El deține în incintă un Club cu o capacitate de 3500 de locuri. Pe lângă turiştii români, Vox Maris va primi, în acest an, grupuri de turişti din Israel şi Polonia dar şi turişti individuali din foarte multe ţări. Conform rezervărilor făcute până acum complexul va rămâne deschis până aproape de sfârșitul lunii septembrie” - afirmă Bogdan Achiţei, directorul de marketing al complexului turistic de 4 stele. Construit pe o suprafaţă de 7 hectare, în urmă cu 57 de ani, Vox Maris Grand Resort este situat în inima staţiunii Costineşti. El este format din ansambluri de vile cu o capacitate totală de 400 de camere duble sau twin, junior suite şi apartamente cu 2 şi 3 camere, centru de conferinţe format din 11 săli, club de fitness cu antrenor, teren de tenis, bowling, biliard, 3 piscine pentru adulţi şi una pentru copii, jacuzzi, parcare cu o capacitate de circa 500 de autovehicule etc.\n\n\nANGELA SIMION, ALEX BARBU & ION BADEA\n\n','Căldură, Art Deco și promisiuni Royale - INDUSTRIE HOTELIERA nr.160-161','','inherit','closed','closed','','6037-autosave-v1','','','2018-01-21 14:59:50','2018-01-21 12:59:50','',6037,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2018/01/21/6037-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6091,1,'2018-01-21 14:58:52','2018-01-21 12:58:52','','Vox Maris 2','','inherit','open','closed','','vox-maris-2','','','2018-01-21 14:58:52','2018-01-21 12:58:52','',6037,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Vox-Maris-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6092,1,'2018-01-21 14:59:08','2018-01-21 12:59:08','','Vox Maris 1','','inherit','open','closed','','vox-maris-1','','','2018-01-21 14:59:08','2018-01-21 12:59:08','',6037,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Vox-Maris-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6093,1,'2018-01-21 14:59:22','2018-01-21 12:59:22','','Plaje 062','','inherit','open','closed','','plaje-062','','','2018-01-21 14:59:22','2018-01-21 12:59:22','',6037,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Plaje-062.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6094,1,'2018-01-21 14:59:51','2018-01-21 12:59:51','Căldură, Art Deco și promisiuni Royale\r\nUmbrele lui Ioan Movilă și Arta Cerchez se reîntorc la Eforie Sud.

La fiecare etaj el ofera salon cu bufet suedez. Investiția totală se ridică la circa 7 milioane de euro a declarat omul de afaceri Mohammad Murad, care controlează acest lanț. ”Am observat că cererea pe segmentul premium, aflată în permanentă creștere, este departe de a fi acoperită pe litoralul autohton. Prin aceasta ultimă investiție încerc să ofer condiții de calitate superioară - comparabile cu cele din Antalya, Dubai ori alte destinații externe -, care să-i determine pe mai mulți români să-și petreacă vacanțele în România”, spune Murad, care conduce, în același timp, și Federația Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR).\r\n\r\nHotelurile de 4 stele pe care le deține la Navodari cumuleaza în jur de 2.500 de locuri de cazare. După cum am mai anunțat într-un număr anterior lanțul hotelier Phoenicia va redeschide anul viitor pe litoral complexul hotelier Belvedere, Amfiteatru și Panoramic din Neptun Olimp, ce va fi clasificat la 3 și 4 stele, iar la Năvodari va construi un Boutique Hotel ce urmează să funcționeze la standardul de 5 stele plus.\r\n\r\nCOSTINEȘTI: O nouă abordare la Vox Maris\r\n\r\nÎn acest sezon complexul „Vox Maris Grand Resort” din Costineşti s-a relansat din 5 mai prin o serie de evenimente tematice dar şi cu oferte pentru toate categoriile de turişti. Printre acestea se numără: ”Carnaval la Vox Maris“, ”Seară Grecească“, HOP - Gala Tânărului Actor sau Gala Fashion TV. Săptămânal, până la 31 august, vor fi organizate, la Clubul „Vox Maris”, petreceri cu DJ şi artişti internaţionali. El este promovat ca un produs complet şi exclusivist pe litoralul românesc.\r\n\r\n„Vox Maris este sigurul resort care se adresează tuturor categoriilor de clienţi datorită facilităţilor. El deține în incintă un Club cu o capacitate de 3500 de locuri. Pe lângă turiştii români, Vox Maris va primi, în acest an, grupuri de turişti din Israel şi Polonia dar şi turişti individuali din foarte multe ţări. Conform rezervărilor făcute până acum complexul va rămâne deschis până aproape de sfârșitul lunii septembrie” - afirmă Bogdan Achiţei, directorul de marketing al complexului turistic de 4 stele. Construit pe o suprafaţă de 7 hectare, în urmă cu 57 de ani, Vox Maris Grand Resort este situat în inima staţiunii Costineşti.

(ALEX BARBU)\r\n\r\nSTREET FOOD, PAPA BUN\r\n\r\nDupă ce în ultimii ani a fost găzduit de mai multe orașe, conceptul de street food a devenit din 2017 un festival urban gastronomic: Street Food Festival (SFF). El a debutat la Oradea (în luna mai), va ajunge în 9 orașe (Iași, Sibiu, Arad, Cluj-Napoca, Brașov, Alba Iulia, Bacău) și se va încheia în septembrie la Timișoara. ”Festivalul are o dinamică impresionantă de la o ediție la alta. Ne adaptăm la tot ce e nou, ne bucurăm de sprijinul necesar din partea autorităților dar și al unor sponsori și parteneri de nădejde” - afirmă Nely Borza, Project Manager SFF. Alte amănunte pe streetfoodfestival.ro.\r\nLA CLEJANI au pedalat și în horă au intrat!\r\n\r\n100 de bicicliști, majoritatea din București, au pedalat pe 8 iulie aproape 80 de km, pe traseul Bucșani-Clejani-Bulbucata, la al patrulea eveniment cicloturistic cu plecare din Bolintin Vale. Participanții au vizitat obiective istorice și culturale giurgiuvene din apropierea Bucureștiului, precum Conacul Anghelescu din Bucșani, biserica Sf. Arhangheli Mihail și Gavriil din Clejani. “Cicloturiștii s-au relaxat, s-au bucurat de apropierea de natură, de bunătățile pregătite de oameni primitori din zonă, precum și de demonstrațiile realizate de meșteșugarii locali. Cum muzica, dansul și gastronomia unesc oameni diferiți, evenimentul a atras turiști care apreciază autenticitatea”, a spus Mircea Crisbășanu, organizatorul turului din partea Asociației ROI și a Outhentic Cycling Romania. Următorul tur cicloturistic a avut loc pe 15 august la Potlogi. Evenimentul „Pedalăm pe urmele istoriei la Bucșani, Clejani și Bulbucata” este organizat de către Outhentic Cycling Romania și Asociația ROI, cu susținerea OMV Petrom. (ANGELA SIMION)\r\n\r\n@ DOUĂ AERONAVE NOI AU INTRAT în flota TAROM, ca să înlocuiască cele două Airbus-uri care au fost retrase, iar până la sfârșitul anului vom mai achiziționa încă două aeronave în leasing operațional, care vor deservi rute long-curier”, a precizat ministrul Transporturilor, Răzvan Cuc. Acesta a mai adăugat că tot în acest an TAROM intenționează să reia zborurile către China și SUA.

The project belongs to Adrian Gemănaru, a Romanian doctor nomineed at The World Autism Festival for his special recovery therapies, created for autistic children and not only. There will be a 22.000 scuare meters of beach, with and opening of 200 meters to the sea, redesigned as a therapeutic park. It will showcase diffrent areas for sun-beds (100 seats), 1.000 people capacity for towels, access ramps, an events scene, a Relax Garden, two playgrounds, areas for visual, senzorial and auditive stimulation, a pottery workshop, floating mobile seats and first aid unit.\r\nThe project needs 100000 euros, and in order to raise that amount 1.500 people will be running for 24 hours, in Mamaia resort, in may 2018, to promote the project. This will be the second edition of The „24 hours Run for Autism Black Sea”, organized by Adrian Gemanaru.\r\n\r\nDoubleTree in Cluj-Napoca\r\nThe City Plaza hotel in Cluj-Napoca became DoubleTree by Hilton. The brand conversion meant a full or partial make-over of all the areas of the hotel. The 40 rooms of the eastern wing saw a complete remaking, while the rest of 44 in the western wing a partial one. A fresh touch was given to the Marco Polo restaurant, the Reception area, the Venezia and Beijing event rooms, to the Salute Per Aqua SPA and the Ballroom.

De la primele noastre interacțiuni cu chefi bucătari de street-food am descoperit dorința acestora de a se dezvolta, de a-și pune în evidență creativitatea și cel mai important de a oferi publicului cât mai multe experiențe inedite” a declarat Călin Câmpean, președintele Asociației Street Food Revolution și Comercial Manager al Street Food Festival.\r\n\r\nA FOST LANSATĂ CARAVANA SMART CITY. În ultima decadă a lunii septembrie a pornit la drum Caravana Smart City. Inițiat de Asociația Românã pentru Smart City și Mobilitate (ARSCM), aflat sub Înaltul Patronaj al Ministerului Energiei. Acesta este cel mai amplu program de promovare a industriei Smart City din România. Cu acest prilej, Președintele ARSCM, domnul Eduard Dumitrașcu a lansat Strategia Naționalã pentru Dezvoltarea Orașelor Creativ-Inteligente. În cadrul acesteia, Președintele ARSCM a evidențiat implementarea standardelor ISO pentru Smart City, lansarea Apelului de Proiecte și Ghidului de Achiziții Publice – ambele documente dedicate administrației centrale și locale, alãturi de inițierea de cãtre grupurile de experți naționali și internaționali ai ARSCM privind auditul smart city. (C. MARIAN)\r\n\r\nSTAȚIUNILE DE PE LITORAL AR TREBUI ADMINISTRATE de o companie formată pe modelul stațiunilor franceze. Aceasta ar trebui să aibă la bază un parteneriat public-privat, cred reprezentanții patronatelor din turismul românesc. \"Toate stațiunile turistice se pot autofinanța din taxele și impozitele pe care le plătește mediul privat\" - a apreciat Mohammad Murad, președintele Federației Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR). În urma unor analize a reieșit că aceasta ar fi cea mai bună soluție pentru eficientizarea activităților și administrarea stațiunilor. ”O astfel de entitate, care ar reprezenta 40% din capacitatea de cazare a țării noastre, ar putea stopa și criza forței de muncă cu care se confruntă turismul litoral în mod special, caracterul sezonier al activității adâncind această criză” - a declarat Dragoş Raducan, primVicepreședinte Executiv al FPTR.

\r\n\r\nMotorul ambarcațiunii ecologice toarce încet. Începem să ne dezmorțim din mrejele poveștilor pescărești.

Dar un efort de imaginație, ne îndeamnă să privim dinspre viitor. Sulina crede într-o promisiune (în ultimul deceniu și jumătate) de relansare economică, prin industria turismului. E doar o parte din adevăr. Un fost primar al localității creiona o radiografie realistă a urbei: ”S-a distrus aproape tot în Sulina. Şi dacă era război, şi tot mai rămâneau câteva întreprinderi în picioare. E frumos, sună extraordinar, dar e foarte greu să faci reconversia forţei de muncă industriale în alte domenii, ca de exemplu servicii şi turism. Nu poţi trăi permanent numai din asta la Sulina”.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6189,6191,6192,6193,6194,6195,6196,6197,6198,6199,6200,6201\"]\r\n\r\nCU OCHII PE VISCONTI\r\n\r\nUnii susțin că o zi este suficientă pentru a vizita Sulina. Alții că ar putea fi vorba de programe de weekend, adică aproximativ 3 zile. Dar cel mai mulți aleg sejururi de o saptamână pentru vacanțe clasice sau de aventură. În ce constă aventura? Vin aici pentru vacanţe pescari, familii, iar pensiunea este full tot sezonul. Gazdele organizează partide de pescuit, vânătoare, de birdwatching şi fotohunting, excursii în Delta Dunării, la Pădurea Letea, închiriază ambarcaţiuni cu capacităţi de la 2 până la 10 persoane. Oferă în plus programe de călărie de agrement, iar pescarii amatori pot închiria profesori… de crap sau ştiucă - ne relata proprietarul unei pensiuni.\r\nDar grosul îl reprezintă pachetul ce cuprinde farurile, plaja unicat, Jean Bart și Cimitirul maritim, promovat din ce în ce mai mult drept... cimitirul piraților. Să le luăm pe rând. Dacă nu ştiaţi, Sulina este singurul oraş din România, ale cărei străzi principale sunt numerotate pe sistem newyorkez de la 1 la 6, cu 13 străzi perpendiculare pe fluviu. Istoria certifică documentar aşezarea în anul 950, iar prima menţionare e făcută în hărţile medievale din 1327, de Pietro Visconti, localitatea fiind menţionată ulterior ca Selina, Sunne, Solina şi, în final, ca Sulina. Două clădiri fac diferenţa. Ce ar trebui mai bine vizualizate și valorificate. Farul şi edificiul Comisiei europene a Dunării.\r\n\r\nBOTEZ, BART ȘI 4 FARURI\r\n\r\nFarul Vechi datează din 1869-1870, şi era amplasat pe acea vreme în apropierea punctului de vărsare a Dunării în Marea Neagră. Acum edificiu se află la 1,5 kilometri de ţărmul mării, ceea ce înseamnă că suprafaţa oraşului a crescut. Farul are o înălţime de 17,34 de metri. După 1989 a fost restaurat şi apoi în 2003 a fost transformat în Muzeu. L-am revizitat, și ne-a încântat faptul că a apărut un mic magazin la intrare. Turistul poate să-și cumpere acum mici suveniruri (vederi, magneți, textile, creații ceramice inscripționate cu numele orașului, cărți, hărți și broșuri despre istoria locului). Ne-a mai încântat și că ghidul local își face treaba la nivel profesionist și că a dispărut aerul acela de spațiu obosit și abandonat. O sală este dedicată comandorului Eugeniu P. Botez (unul dintre elevii lui Ion Creangă), care a îndeplinit o vreme funcţia de comisar maritim al portului. Nimeni altul decât Jean Bart, pseudonimul autorului romanului Europolis. Printre obiectele autentice expuse se numără biroul, scaunele, biblioteca, lampa de birou, tabloul și potretul scriitorului, operă a pictorului Theodor Cateliu. Ele au fost achiziționate în 1977 de la Cecilia Botez Stork, nora lui Jean Bart.\r\n\r\nFarul a fost – vă mai amintiţi nu? – şi „personaj principal” în filmul românesc de mare succes „Toate pânzele sus”. Iar fresca istorică a Europolisului a stat la baza ”Porto Franco”, o productie de referință a anilor ‘60-‘70. Dar Sulina mai deține încă trei faruri istorice. Cel de pe malul drept, de pe digul de sud cu o înălțime de 11,6 metri, dislocat de pe postamentul original în 1922 dar reinstalat pe același soclu în 1960, respectiv Farul de pe malul stîng, de pe digul de nord (13,7 metri), construit în 1887, ce difuza semnalul optic pe o distanță de 8 mile marine. El a fost o adevarată \"făclie a vieții\", pentru vasele care navigau pe brațul Sulina. Cel de-al patrulea este Farul nou, amplasat la gura Canalului Sulina. Are 48 de metri înălțime, iar lumina emisă din construcția cilindrică este vizibilă la o distanță de 19 mile marine. Nu întâmplător deci, Sulina e promovat turistic ca ”orașul celor 4 faruri”.\r\n\r\nPIRAȚI ȘI POVEȘTI DE DRAGOSTE\r\n\r\nCea mai tare găselniţă, care stă în picioare, este circuitul monumentelor funerare din Cimitirul oraşului. După Cimitirul vesel de la Săpânța, acesta are șansa de a deveni o ”atracție” la fel de votată de turiști. În ”Cimitirul Maritim” sau ”Cimitirul cosmopolit” dorm somnul de veci personalităţi ale Comisiei Dunărene - români, britanici, greci, italieni, ruşi, armeni, turci, austro-ungari, evrei, bulgari, tătari, muntenegreni, sîrbi, germani etc. E cel mai ”multicultural” cimitir istoric din România dar și din Europa. Aici se regăsesc mormintele danezului Magnusen - inginer-şef al lucrărilor din Sulina, ale inginerului Carl Kühl, ori ale unor nume de legende: prinţesa Ecaterinei Moruzi; comandorul Mihail Drăghicescu, profesor al lui Jean Bart la Şcoala de Marină Galaţi etc. William Webster, capitanul navei Adalia și Margaret Ann Pincle, deghizată în marinar, au trăit o superbă poveste de dragoste. Au murit într-un naufragiu în 1868, și au fost îngropați la Sulina. Timp de peste 300 de ani, Sulina a fost fieful piraților greci ori maltezi. Cel mai temut pare să fi fost Ghiorghios Kontoguris (din Keffalonia) pe a cărui piatră funerară e sculptat semnul piraților – “craniu de schelet şi oase încrucişate”. A jefuit sute de corabii și-a îngropat comorile dar a murit împușcat de autorități la 33 de ani.\r\n\r\nVA FI UN CENTRU CULTURAL?\r\n\r\nLa Palatul fostei Comisiuni Europene a Dunării, care mai păstrează liniile stilului neoclasic nu te cam cheamă nimic. Deși înăuntru este ascunsă o expoziție permanentă cu documente istorice. Clădirea ar putea căpăta o altă utilitate, eventual un Centru cultural şi expoziţional. La ora când am vizitat-o am constatat că plăcile de la intrare ce aminteau de importanța clădirii, au dispărut. Au fost furate sau date la... restaurare?\r\nMai multe investiții au pus în valoare un complex de agrement dar şi plaja cu cel mai fin nisip din Europa. E o zonă fantastică iar apa mării are o adâncime de circa 30 de centimetri pe o lungime de circa 800 de metri. Plaja a fost certificată și la nivel internațional. Alături se află o rezervație, integrată în spațiul turistic. După cum se ştie, Sulina a derulat proiect pilot în parteneriat cu ONU, cu asistenţă din partea PNUD, pentru realizarea unui plan de dezvoltare urbană integrată, ce are deja un efect revigorant asupra activităţilor de turism.\r\n\r\nCât despre sejururi mai lungi la Sulina vă stau la dispoziție variante de cazare și de prețuri la circa 38 de pensiuni, vile, hoteluri clasice sau plutitoare, apartamente de închiriat, alte spații de cazare, printre care pensiunea Jean Bart, Vilele Alga și Casa Sibiana, hotelurile Delta Palace și Delta Miraj. Cum am văzut există atracții turistice care individualizează orașul de capătul brațului Sulina. Ar trebui însă mai inspirat ambalate şi scoase la vânzare printr-o promovare de destinație. Asta presupune nu numai bugete consistente ci și minţi mai rapide, care să lanseze proiecte durabile. Nu focuri de artificii.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','SULINA - In cautarea EUROPOLISULUI, LUMEA IN MISCARE nr. 162-163','','publish','open','open','','sulina-in-cautarea-europolisului-lumea-in-miscare-nr-162-163','','','2018-02-11 14:06:01','2018-02-11 12:06:01','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=6132',0,'post','',0),(6133,1,'2018-02-11 12:51:18','2018-02-11 10:51:18','Așa rămăsese.

Şi dacă era război, şi tot mai rămâneau câteva întreprinderi în picioare. E frumos, sună extraordinar, dar e foarte greu să faci reconversia forţei de muncă industriale în alte domenii, ca de exemplu servicii şi turism. Nu poţi trăi permanent numai din asta la Sulina”.\r\n\r\nCU OCHII PE VISCONTI\r\n\r\nUnii susțin că o zi este suficientă pentru a vizita Sulina. Alții că ar putea fi vorba de programe de weekend, adică aproximativ 3 zile. Dar cel mai mulți aleg sejururi de o saptamână pentru vacanțe clasice sau de aventură. În ce constă aventura? Vin aici pentru vacanţe pescari, familii, iar pensiunea este full tot sezonul. Gazdele organizează partide de pescuit, vânătoare, de birdwatching şi fotohunting, excursii în Delta Dunării, la Pădurea Letea, închiriază ambarcaţiuni cu capacităţi de la 2 până la 10 persoane. Oferă în plus programe de călărie de agrement, iar pescarii amatori pot închiria profesori… de crap sau ştiucă - ne relata proprietarul unei pensiuni.\r\nDar grosul îl reprezintă pachetul ce cuprinde farurile, plaja unicat, Jean Bart și Cimitirul maritim, promovat din ce în ce mai mult drept... cimitirul piraților. Să le luăm pe rând. Dacă nu ştiaţi, Sulina este singurul oraş din România, ale cărei străzi principale sunt numerotate pe sistem newyorkez de la 1 la 6, cu 13 străzi perpendiculare pe fluviu. Istoria certifică documentar aşezarea în anul 950, iar prima menţionare e făcută în hărţile medievale din 1327, de Pietro Visconti, localitatea fiind menţionată ulterior ca Selina, Sunne, Solina şi, în final, ca Sulina. Două clădiri fac diferenţa. Ce ar trebui mai bine vizualizate și valorificate. Farul şi edificiul Comisiei europene a Dunării.\r\n\r\nBOTEZ, BART ȘI 4 FARURI\r\n\r\nFarul Vechi datează din 1869-1870, şi era amplasat pe acea vreme în apropierea punctului de vărsare a Dunării în Marea Neagră. Acum edificiu se află la 1,5 kilometri de ţărmul mării, ceea ce înseamnă că suprafaţa oraşului a crescut. Farul are o înălţime de 17,34 de metri. După 1989 a fost restaurat şi apoi în 2003 a fost transformat în Muzeu. L-am revizitat, și ne-a încântat faptul că a apărut un mic magazin la intrare. Turistul poate să-și cumpere acum mici suveniruri (vederi, magneți, textile, creații ceramice inscripționate cu numele orașului, cărți, hărți și broșuri despre istoria locului). Ne-a mai încântat și că ghidul local își face treaba la nivel profesionist și că a dispărut aerul acela de spațiu obosit și abandonat. O sală este dedicată comandorului Eugeniu P. Botez (unul dintre elevii lui Ion Creangă), care a îndeplinit o vreme funcţia de comisar maritim al portului. Nimeni altul decât Jean Bart, pseudonimul autorului romanului Europolis. Printre obiectele autentice expuse se numără biroul, scaunele, biblioteca, lampa de birou, tabloul și potretul scriitorului, operă a pictorului Theodor Cateliu. Ele au fost achiziționate în 1977 de la Cecilia Botez Stork, nora lui Jean Bart.\r\n\r\nFarul a fost – vă mai amintiţi nu? – şi „personaj principal” în filmul românesc de mare succes „Toate pânzele sus”. Iar fresca istorică a Europolisului a stat la baza ”Porto Franco”, o productie de referință a anilor ‘60-‘70. Dar Sulina mai deține încă trei faruri istorice. Cel de pe malul drept, de pe digul de sud cu o înălțime de 11,6 metri, dislocat de pe postamentul original în 1922 dar reinstalat pe același soclu în 1960, respectiv Farul de pe malul stîng, de pe digul de nord (13,7 metri), construit în 1887, ce difuza semnalul optic pe o distanță de 8 mile marine. El a fost o adevarată \"făclie a vieții\", pentru vasele care navigau pe brațul Sulina. Cel de-al patrulea este Farul nou, amplasat la gura Canalului Sulina. Are 48 de metri înălțime, iar lumina emisă din construcția cilindrică este vizibilă la o distanță de 19 mile marine. Nu întâmplător deci, Sulina e promovat turistic ca ”orașul celor 4 faruri”.\r\n\r\nPIRAȚI ȘI POVEȘTI DE DRAGOSTE\r\n\r\nCea mai tare găselniţă, care stă în picioare, este circuitul monumentelor funerare din Cimitirul oraşului. După Cimitirul vesel de la Săpânța, acesta are șansa de a deveni o ”atracție” la fel de votată de turiști. În ”Cimitirul Maritim” sau ”Cimitirul cosmopolit” dorm somnul de veci personalităţi ale Comisiei Dunărene - români, britanici, greci, italieni, ruşi, armeni, turci, austro-ungari, evrei, bulgari, tătari, muntenegreni, sîrbi, germani etc. E cel mai ”multicultural” cimitir istoric din România dar și din Europa. Aici se regăsesc mormintele danezului Magnusen - inginer-şef al lucrărilor din Sulina, ale inginerului Carl Kühl, ori ale unor nume de legende: prinţesa Ecaterinei Moruzi; comandorul Mihail Drăghicescu, profesor al lui Jean Bart la Şcoala de Marină Galaţi etc. William Webster, capitanul navei Adalia și Margaret Ann Pincle, deghizată în marinar, au trăit o superbă poveste de dragoste. Au murit într-un naufragiu în 1868, și au fost îngropați la Sulina. Timp de peste 300 de ani, Sulina a fost fieful piraților greci ori maltezi. Cel mai temut pare să fi fost Ghiorghios Kontoguris (din Keffalonia) pe a cărui piatră funerară e sculptat semnul piraților – “craniu de schelet şi oase încrucişate”. A jefuit sute de corabii și-a îngropat comorile dar a murit împușcat de autorități la 33 de ani.\r\n\r\nVA FI UN CENTRU CULTURAL?\r\n\r\nLa Palatul fostei Comisiuni Europene a Dunării, care mai păstrează liniile stilului neoclasic nu te cam cheamă nimic. Deși înăuntru este ascunsă o expoziție permanentă cu documente istorice. Clădirea ar putea căpăta o altă utilitate, eventual un Centru cultural şi expoziţional. La ora când am vizitat-o am constatat că plăcile de la intrare ce aminteau de importanța clădirii, au dispărut. Au fost furate sau date la... restaurare?\r\nMai multe investiții au pus în valoare un complex de agrement dar şi plaja cu cel mai fin nisip din Europa. E o zonă fantastică iar apa mării are o adâncime de circa 30 de centimetri pe o lungime de circa 800 de metri. Plaja a fost certificată și la nivel internațional. Alături se află o rezervație, integrată în spațiul turistic. După cum se ştie, Sulina a derulat proiect pilot în parteneriat cu ONU, cu asistenţă din partea PNUD, pentru realizarea unui plan de dezvoltare urbană integrată, ce are deja un efect revigorant asupra activităţilor de turism.\r\n\r\nCât despre sejururi mai lungi la Sulina vă stau la dispoziție variante de cazare și de prețuri la circa 38 de pensiuni, vile, hoteluri clasice sau plutitoare, apartamente de închiriat, alte spații de cazare, printre care pensiunea Jean Bart, Vilele Alga și Casa Sibiana, hotelurile Delta Palace și Delta Miraj. Cum am văzut există atracții turistice care individualizează orașul de capătul brațului Sulina. Ar trebui însă mai inspirat ambalate şi scoase la vânzare printr-o promovare de destinație. Asta presupune nu numai bugete consistente ci și minţi mai rapide, care să lanseze proiecte durabile. Nu focuri de artificii.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','SULINA - In cautarea EUROPOLISULUI, LUMEA IN MISCARE nr. 162-163','','inherit','closed','closed','','6132-revision-v1','','','2018-02-11 12:51:18','2018-02-11 10:51:18','',6132,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2018/02/11/6132-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6134,1,'2018-02-11 14:02:09','2018-02-11 12:02:09','Cosmonauți, ziariști, spioni cu mâna pe Biblie\r\nNu a vizitat niciodată Statele Unite.

\r\nDacă aveți prejudecăți lăsați-le la garderobă. Spy Museum, este unic prin originalitatea și modernitatea expunerii. Este singurul muzeu american dedicat ”artei spionajului”. Face parte din galeria muzeelor private din Washington. Trebuie să-l vizitați, măcar odată în viață, ca și pe celelalte trei din acest reportaj. De ce? Argumente ne-au fost oferite de către Aliza Bran, PR și Marketing coordonator la această instituție. ”Din 2002, de când a fost inaugurat aici prezentăm cea mai mare colecție internațională de obiecte, produse secrete, armament, dispozitive de urmărire, ascultare, documente, mașini, îmbrăcăminte specială. Nu sunt copii ori mulaje, ci chiar cele folosite de către spionii din toate timpurile, care au schimbat cursul istoriei.”\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6165,6166,6167,6168,6169,6170\"]\r\n\r\nO incursiune în sălile muzeului este distractivă dar și educativă. Încă de la început poți adopta o identitate de spion. Ești coordonat și îndrumat ce trebuie să faci sau cum trebuie să acționezi. Vrei să aprofundezi fenomentul și utilitatea sa? Atunci trebuie să treci prin mai multe etape. Din secțiunea de expuneri pleci la întâlnirea cu profesorii Școlii de Spionaj, apoi înveți cât mai multe lecții în sala dedicată secretelor istoriei numită sugestiv ”The Secret History of History”. Vei afla că spionajul era practicat din vremurile biblice, iar până în timpurile moderne el a evoluat ideologic dar și tehnologic. Diversitatea scenariilor ține de interesele statelor de a atinge anumite ținte. Dacă nu știați, aflați! George Washington autoriza, printr-un act din 1777 crearea la New York a unei noi rețele de spionaj. Din scrisoarea expusă în muzeu reiese că omul, unul dintre președinții Statelor Unite, era un profesionist al acestei arte, ca și Daniel Defoe, autorul celebrului roman Robinson Crusoe. La secțiunea ”Spionii printre noi” regăsim celebrități care chiar ar fi fost păcat să nu fie spioni - Josephine Baker, Marlene Dietrich, Mata Hari, celebrul Chef Julia Child, regizorul John Ford etc. Primul aspect cu care te familiarizează proiecțiile documentare este ”fenomentul există, cel mai bine e să fi informat.”\r\n\r\nCum era de anticipat, cel mai frecventat spațiu este cel dedicat filmului care bate viața. Cel mai iubit spion de către femei, dar cel mai urât de către bărbații, celebrul James Bond 007, ne zîmbește din ramele unor afișe, în diverse variante de actori de la prima peliculă ”Dr. NO” (1962) până la ”Skyfall” distribuit în ultimii ani. Personajul a fost îmbrățișat de toată lumea fiind receptat ca o... realitate. În secțiunea ”Grand Truth” vă întâlniți cu perspectiva profesiei în secolul 21: războaie cibernetice, inteligențe artificiale, arme de distrugere în masă etc. Aveți ocazia de a testa asemenea experiențe apelând la programul de o oră oferit de ”Operation Spy”. Ras, tuns și frezat sunteți transformat în spion, dotat cu arme și obiective clare, interacționați cu programe video-tehnice cu ajutorul cărora salvați omenirea de la o catastrofă nucleară. Dacă vă animă ambiții mai mici puteți lucra cu un GPS și salva Washigton-ul de un atac cibernetic. Firește, la sfârșit nu puteți pleca fără ”coșul de spionaj”. Peste 500 de cărți, filme, broșuri, jucării pentru spioni, șosete, tricouri, cravate, fulare vă stau la dispoziție. S-ar putea să vă trebuiască. Este spionajul artă, spectacol sau o profesie de temut? Răspunsul e la un bulevard distanță, în sediul FBI.\r\n\r\nNews Museum: Presa este oglinda istoriei\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6171,6172,6173,6174,6175,6176\"]\r\n\r\n\r\nTrei mari locații speciale ne-au stârnit interesul când am fost invitați să participăm la un eveniment pentru presă, organizat la ediția din acest an de la IPW Washington. Muzeul dedicat importanței știrilor, în general producătorilor de presă, reprezintă o inițiativă privată. Astfel în fiecare zi, poți parcurge, pe suporturile din fața News Museum, printurile primelor pagini ale cotidienelor americane. Același tip de galerie se regăsește și în spațiul ce comemorează tragedia din 9/11 septembrie de la World Trade Center din New York. În centru lui un pilon de rezistență contorsionat în timpul incendiilor pe care se afla o antenă satelit pentru comunicații. Este un omagiu adus în același timp jurnaliștilor care și-au sacrificat chiar și viața de-a lungul istoriei, pentru a apăra dreptul la liberă exprimare. În jurul acestei valori au fost organizate toate expozițiile de documente. Pe cele 7 etaje ce includ 15 galerii, poate fi urmărită dezvoltarea industriilor media, de la presa scrisă, TV, radio până la cele multimedia.\r\n\r\nAl doilea spațiu expozițional de la News Museum se află chiar în partea dreaptă a intrării. E Salonul Fotografilor distinși cu Premiul Pulitzer (înființat în 1904), o distincție, suntem convinși că știți, considerată a fi echivalentul Oscarului decernat pentru jurnalism american. În acest loc printre fotografii alb-negru și color, descoperi și cel mai tragic premiu (ce redă pânda unui vultur uriaș care așteaptă să se înfigă în trupul unui copil muribund), ce apaține fotoreporterului care s-a sinucis realizând ulterior că nu a făcut nimic pentru a salva copilul. Semn că deseori o fotografie spune tot, dar nu salvează nimic. După ce parcurgi galeria cu sute de fotografii majoritatea suprinse în timpul unor războaie ori conflagrații armate, îți dai seama că dacă aceste uriașe drame n-ar fi existat, o parte din omenire ar fi fost mult mai frumoasă, ca și fotografiile ce ar fi fost realizate. Dar, se pare, moartea e mai fotogenică.\r\n\r\nÎn fine la News Museum vizitatorul descoperă că presa profesionistă a construit un drum spre conștiința lumii prin devotamentul celor ce o slujesc, prin informarea corectă a consumatorului de informații. În contrapunct ți se prezintă diverse tehnici de manipulare și interceptare media, care au afectat și distorsionat spațiul de comunicare de-a lungul istoriei. Un episod a fost Zidul Berlinului, căruia îi și este dedicată cea mai mare expoziție din afara granițelor Germaniei. ”Prin expozițiile noastre, prin planificarea inițiativei cu scop educațional, misiunea News Museum este de a promova, explica și apăra dreptul la liberă exprimare consfințit de Constituția americană. Credem că astăzi misiunea muzeului este mai importantă ca oricând căci drepturile fundamentale continuă să fie amenințate aici dar și pe întregul mapamond” - ne declara Monica Garney, Sales & marketing manager la instituția vizitată.\r\n\r\nMuzeul Bibliei: Așa ceva chiar există\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Bible-Museum-2.jpg\")
\r\nE gata. La jumătatea lui noiembrie va fi inaugurat. Pentru noi echipa Traveller Magazin deschiderea lui are o semnificație aparte. Am fost onorați să ne numărăm printre puținii jurnaliști ce au avut șansa de a intra în Muzeul Bibliei, chiar în faza de șantier, când căpătau contur sălile expoziționale ale clădirii cu 7 etaje. Le-am parcurs pe toate cu sentimentul că participăm la ”repetițiile” unui spectacol memorabil.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6178,6179,6180,6181\"]\r\n\r\nNașterea unui muzeu unic. La fiecare etaj ni s-au redat etape ale amenajării tematice a clădirii, aflată în apropierea Capitoliului. Gazda noastră Jeremy C. Burton, Directorul de comunicare și marketing ne-a inițiat în ceea ce va deveni în curând acest muzeu. Ușile impunătoare ale clădirii sunt realizate din bronz masiv, holul de la intrare este acoperit de un imens ecran pe care se vor face în permanență proiecții cu episoade din istoria Bibliei, fiecare sală va semăna cu o bijuterie tehnică aici fiind implementate cele mai noi tehnologii expoziționale. Ni se vorbește de pardoseli mobile, iluminat economic și inteligent, scări rulante, climatizare controlată în funcție de tipul exponatelor iar la ultimul etaj, cireașa de pe tort. Este amenajată o grădină specială, culturi bio de legume și fructe, dar și una de plante, toate amintind de timpul istoric al Bibliei.\r\n\r\n”Muzeul o inițiativă privată, va povesti istoria Bibliei și o va ilustra prin recrearea unor spații mitice. Acum când l-am vizitat avem aproape configurată celebra grădină Ghetsimani. Într-un spațiu special amenajat vor fi expuse exemplare rare ale Bibliei - circa 600 -, scrise în circa 2000 de limbi și dialecte. Să nu uităm că Biblia este cea mai vândută carte a umanității. Aici vizitatorii vor putea simți cum a trecut ea prin timp și tehnologii. Muzeul Bibliei va adăposti expoziții tematice permanente dar și temporare, spectacole și conferințe. Vom avea ghizi specializați în aceste călătorii inițiatice” - a subliniat directorul Burton. Trecem fascinați prin ceea ce va fi Muzeul Bibliei, printre constructorii calmi și prietenoși. Ne oprim în locul în care sute de mii de pagini cu schițe, reproduc schemele de organizare și alimentare cu energie a spațiilor expoziționale. Sus, sub cupola de sticlă va fi un restaurant, și un cafee-shop, de unde va putea fi admirată o parte din panorama parcurilor din vecinătate. Totul este în grafic, iar aventura biblică, cu decolare din timpurile moderne spre spații legendare, este gata să înceapă. Noi suntem mândri că facem parte din ea.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nMulțumiri pentru sprijinul logistic acordat US Travel Association (USTA), Washington DC și DC Cool','Corespondenta din Washington, MAPAMOND nr.162-163','','publish','open','open','','corespondenta-din-washington-mapamond-nr-162-163','','','2018-02-11 14:07:05','2018-02-11 12:07:05','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=6134',0,'post','',0),(6135,1,'2018-02-11 12:59:09','2018-02-11 10:59:09','Cosmonauți, ziariști, spioni cu mâna pe Biblie\r\nNu a vizitat niciodată Statele Unite.

Dacă vă animă ambiții mai mici puteți lucra cu un GPS și salva Washigton-ul de un atac cibernetic. Firește, la sfârșit nu puteți pleca fără ”coșul de spionaj”. Peste 500 de cărți, filme, broșuri, jucării pentru spioni, șosete, tricouri, cravate, fulare vă stau la dispoziție. S-ar putea să vă trebuiască. Este spionajul artă, spectacol sau o profesie de temut? Răspunsul e la un bulevard distanță, în sediul FBI.\r\n\r\nNews Museum: Presa este oglinda istoriei\r\nTrei mari locații speciale ne-au stârnit interesul când am fost invitați să participăm la un eveniment pentru presă, organizat la ediția din acest an de la IPW Washington. Muzeul dedicat importanței știrilor, în general producătorilor de presă, reprezintă o inițiativă privată. Astfel în fiecare zi, poți parcurge, pe suporturile din fața News Museum, printurile primelor pagini ale cotidienelor americane. Același tip de galerie se regăsește și în spațiul ce comemorează tragedia din 9/11 septembrie de la World Trade Center din New York. În centru lui un pilon de rezistență contorsionat în timpul incendiilor pe care se afla o antenă satelit pentru comunicații. Este un omagiu adus în același timp jurnaliștilor care și-au sacrificat chiar și viața de-a lungul istoriei, pentru a apăra dreptul la liberă exprimare. În jurul acestei valori au fost organizate toate expozițiile de documente. Pe cele 7 etaje ce includ 15 galerii, poate fi urmărită dezvoltarea industriilor media, de la presa scrisă, TV, radio până la cele multimedia.\r\n\r\nAl doilea spațiu expozițional de la News Museum se află chiar în partea dreaptă a intrării. E Salonul Fotografilor distinși cu Premiul Pulitzer (înființat în 1904), o distincție, suntem convinși că știți, considerată a fi echivalentul Oscarului decernat pentru jurnalism american. În acest loc printre fotografii alb-negru și color, descoperi și cel mai tragic premiu (ce redă pânda unui vultur uriaș care așteaptă să se înfigă în trupul unui copil muribund), ce apaține fotoreporterului care s-a sinucis realizând ulterior că nu a făcut nimic pentru a salva copilul. Semn că deseori o fotografie spune tot, dar nu salvează nimic. După ce parcurgi galeria cu sute de fotografii majoritatea suprinse în timpul unor războaie ori conflagrații armate, îți dai seama că dacă aceste uriașe drame n-ar fi existat, o parte din omenire ar fi fost mult mai frumoasă, ca și fotografiile ce ar fi fost realizate. Dar, se pare, moartea e mai fotogenică.\r\n\r\nÎn fine la News Museum vizitatorul descoperă că presa profesionistă a construit un drum spre conștiința lumii prin devotamentul celor ce o slujesc, prin informarea corectă a consumatorului de informații. În contrapunct ți se prezintă diverse tehnici de manipulare și interceptare media, care au afectat și distorsionat spațiul de comunicare de-a lungul istoriei. Un episod a fost Zidul Berlinului, căruia îi și este dedicată cea mai mare expoziție din afara granițelor Germaniei. ”Prin expozițiile noastre, prin planificarea inițiativei cu scop educațional, misiunea News Museum este de a promova, explica și apăra dreptul la liberă exprimare consfințit de Constituția americană. Credem că astăzi misiunea muzeului este mai importantă ca oricând căci drepturile fundamentale continuă să fie amenințate aici dar și pe întregul mapamond” - ne declara Monica Garney, Sales & marketing manager la instituția vizitată.\r\n\r\nMuzeul Bibliei: Așa ceva chiar există\r\nE gata. La jumătatea lui noiembrie va fi inaugurat. Pentru noi echipa Traveller Magazin deschiderea lui are o semnificație aparte. Am fost onorați să ne numărăm printre puținii jurnaliști ce au avut șansa de a intra în Muzeul Bibliei, chiar în faza de șantier, când căpătau contur sălile expoziționale ale clădirii cu 7 etaje. Le-am parcurs pe toate cu sentimentul că participăm la ”repetițiile” unui spectacol memorabil. Nașterea unui muzeu unic. La fiecare etaj ni s-au redat etape ale amenajării tematice a clădirii, aflată în apropierea Capitoliului. Gazda noastră Jeremy C. Burton, Directorul de comunicare și marketing ne-a inițiat în ceea ce va deveni în curând acest muzeu. Ușile impunătoare ale clădirii sunt realizate din bronz masiv, holul de la intrare este acoperit de un imens ecran pe care se vor face în permanență proiecții cu episoade din istoria Bibliei, fiecare sală va semăna cu o bijuterie tehnică aici fiind implementate cele mai noi tehnologii expoziționale. Ni se vorbește de pardoseli mobile, iluminat economic și inteligent, scări rulante, climatizare controlată în funcție de tipul exponatelor iar la ultimul etaj, cireașa de pe tort. Este amenajată o grădină specială, culturi bio de legume și fructe, dar și una de plante, toate amintind de timpul istoric al Bibliei.\r\n\r\n”Muzeul o inițiativă privată, va povesti istoria Bibliei și o va ilustra prin recrearea unor spații mitice. Acum când l-am vizitat avem aproape configurată celebra grădină Ghetsimani. Într-un spațiu special amenajat vor fi expuse exemplare rare ale Bibliei - circa 600 -, scrise în circa 2000 de limbi și dialecte. Să nu uităm că Biblia este cea mai vândută carte a umanității. Aici vizitatorii vor putea simți cum a trecut ea prin timp și tehnologii. Muzeul Bibliei va adăposti expoziții tematice permanente dar și temporare, spectacole și conferințe. Vom avea ghizi specializați în aceste călătorii inițiatice” - a subliniat directorul Burton. Trecem fascinați prin ceea ce va fi Muzeul Bibliei, printre constructorii calmi și prietenoși. Ne oprim în locul în care sute de mii de pagini cu schițe, reproduc schemele de organizare și alimentare cu energie a spațiilor expoziționale. Sus, sub cupola de sticlă va fi un restaurant, și un cafee-shop, de unde va putea fi admirată o parte din panorama parcurilor din vecinătate. Totul este în grafic, iar aventura biblică, cu decolare din timpurile moderne spre spații legendare, este gata să înceapă. Noi suntem mândri că facem parte din ea.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nMulțumiri pentru sprijinul logistic acordat US Travel Association (USTA), Washington DC și DC Cool','Corespondenta din Washington, MAPAMOND nr.162-163','','inherit','closed','closed','','6134-revision-v1','','','2018-02-11 12:59:09','2018-02-11 10:59:09','',6134,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2018/02/11/6134-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6136,1,'2018-02-11 13:05:46','2018-02-11 11:05:46','„Sunt români care n-au fost la Iaşi, deşi n-ar trebui să fie niciunul” spunea Nicolae Iorga.

\r\n\r\nUn indicator greu sesizabil, mascat de perdele de arbori, ne invită să pătrundem pe o alee umbroasă ce duce spre un castel izvorât parcă dintr-o legendă. Cu turnuleţe, dantelării în piatră şi ziduri gălbui. Ansamblul de la Miclăuşeni este format din 3 monumente: Biserica \"Sf. Voievozi\", \"Buna Vestire\" - datând din 1787, Castelul Sturdza - datând din secolul al XVII-lea, reclădit în 1752 şi în secolul al XIX-lea şi Parcul - datând din secolul al XIX-lea. La intrarea în castel ne întâmpină Sebastian Marcoci, administratorul muzeului.\r\n„Castelul a fost ridicat ca dar de nuntă făcut de George A. Sturdza soţiei sale Maria. Lucrările au început în 1880, pe locul vechiului conac, la un an după căsătoria celor doi. Maria era fiica lui Ion Ghica, cunoscutul scriitor şi politician şi avea un suflet de artist, având înclinaţie spre pictură. A pictat ea însăşi pereţii, ajutată de artişti francezi. La mobilarea şi decorarea interioarelor au participat meşteri din Bucovina şi Germania. George Sturdza a făcut eforturi financiare deosebite, vânzând o parte din moşii, iar castelul a fost terminat abia în 1904.”\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6153,6154,6155,6157,6158,6159,6160,6161\"]\r\n\r\nArt Nouveau și tuneluri secrete\r\nEvoluţia castelului s-a făcut în etape, cu suişuri şi coborâşuri, legate de istoria ţării.

În încăperile de acolo era un atelier de ţesătorie, se mai numea camera femeilor, şi e interesant că din interior se putea intra pe o uşă secretă într-un tunel de evacuare ce are ieşirea către mănăstire, în satul Miclăuşeni. Există un proiect să se refacă drumul până la mănăstire. Elementele de originalitate sunt picturile, elementele de feronerie şi tâmplărie şi câteva sobe. Piesele de mobilier sunt majoritatea achiziţii ulterioare sau donaţii.”\r\n\r\nCastelul a fost amenajat cu meşteri austrieci, care realizau sobele, tâmplăria sau parchetul, câteodată acesta din urmă oglindind modelul tavanelor, ne mai spune interlocutorul nostru. În 1944 tot castelul a fost ocupat de armata sovietică. Camerele acestea din latura nordică, fac parte din vechiul conac, construit la 1755, tavanele aici sunt ogivale, iar în cămăruţa aceasta a stat Ecaterina (fiica Mariei şi a lui G Sturdza). Baia aceasta se mai numea baia Mariei. Decorurile sunt de inspiraţie orientală pentru că Maria a trăit la Istanbul. În colţ e un lavoar, iar în spatele lavoarului era a doua uşă secretă către tunel.

Strudzeştii deţineau o bibliotecă preţioasă formată din 60.000 de volume, strânse de-a lungul timpului de diverşi membri ai familiei, precum şi mai multe colecţii, astăzi dispărute: de arme şi costume medievale, de bijuterii, piese arheologice rare, monezi, busturi din marmură de Carara şi tablouri în ulei.”\r\n\r\nO dată cu începerea celui de-al doilea război mondial vremuri grele s-au abătut asupra edificiului. În august 1944, soldaţii sovietici s-au instalat în castel şi au folosit cărţile pentru foc. O altă parte din cărţi au fost vândute negustorilor evrei din Roman şi Târgu Frumos care le-au folosit ca hârtie de ambalaj. În fine, ţăranii din jur şi-au făcut opinci din scoarţele de piele. Mobilierul şi alte lucruri de valoare au fost vândute de ruşi sau pur şi simplu furate. Regimul comunist avea să desăvârşească mai târziu jaful. „Conştientă că nu mai poate ţine moşia, Ecaterina a hotărât în 1947 să doneze castelul, mănăstirea şi întreg domeniul Episcopiei Ortodoxe a Romanului”.

Acesta este de altfel și cel mai amplu eveniment pe care turoperatorul l-a organizat pentru turiștii sai, membri ai clubului Senior Voyage. Peste 1800 de seniori au fost prezenți la „Serata Senior Voyage” și s-au bucurat la Berăria H din București (personalul depășit de complexitatea evenimentului), de o seară plină de surprize alături de echipa Christian Tour. Dacă Portugalia a fost noutatea sezonului 2016-2017, destinația a revenit în portofoliul Christian Tour la cererea turiștilor, românii au acum ocazia să descopere New York-ul prin programul Senior Voyage. La fel de popular este și programul Senior Voyage Egipt – Hurghada, cu tarife începând de la 295 euro/persoană, pentru care există curse charter de la București și Oradea. De un mare interes în rândul seniorilor se numără și Costa del Sol datorită menținerii tarifelor mici încă de la lansarea programului: de la 395 euro/persoană, pentru un sejur de 7 nopți cu demipensiune și transport cu avion, dar și noile programe pe Scoția și Istanbul. ”Pentru prima dată, seniorii pot călători în New York prin pachetele speciale destinate acestora. Dacă anul trecut surpriza sezonului era reintroducerea Portugaliei pe lista cu locuri de văzut, acum New York este metropola care atrage toate privirile! La fel de căutate sunt vacanțele în Egipt – Hurghada, Costa Brava, Costa del Sol sau Cipru. În ultimii 6 ani, Senior Voyage a devenit fără nicio îndoială cel mai iubit brand turistic în rândul seniorilor. Mai bine de 78.000 de turiști au ales să călătorească în destinațiile preferate, atu-ul acestui program fiind tariful accesibil. Mai mult decât atât, mare parte dintre seniori au intrat și în Clubul Senior Voyage prin care au parte de reduceri la numeroase programe dar și de discounturi la peste 50 de parteneri în țară (precum clinici medicale, stomatologice, saloane de înfrumusețare, magazine, restaurante etc), a declarat Marius Pandel, CEO Christian Tour.\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Travel-Senior-Voyage.jpg\")
\r\n\r\nLansat în 2010 conceptul Senior Voyage s-a bucurat de un succes ce a depășit așteptările turoperatorului Christian Tour. În topul preferințelor acestora cele mai bine vândute destinații au fost Spania (cu Costa del Sol), Italia (cu Sicilia, Napoli și Toscana), România, Portugalia etc. Conform vânzărilor de circuite interne pe acest segment, România este surpriza anului 2017, dar și a viitoarelor sezoane de călătorii - au afirmat specialiștii Christian Tour.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nAterizează Paravion, decolează Concediu.com\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Travel-Concediu-com.jpg\")
\r\nSe pare că Agenția de turism Millennium Tour și-a propus în ultimii ani să creeze, să dezvolte și să vândă, firește în profit, afaceri online. După ce a fondat și a vândut brandul Paravion.ro, către Happy Tour, care din lider de piață a ”aterizat” în insolvență, specialiștii Millennium au lansat portalul Concediu.com. El permite rezervarea de pachete turistice integrale de la mai mulți turoperatori care au oferte de vacanță în străinătate și în România.\r\n\r\nÎn prima fază, site-ul a înglobat peste 3.000 de pachete turistice în peste 40 de destinații, din care 80% sunt externe. În scurt timp creatorii portalului au semnat parteneriate cu furnizori de servicii turistice, ceea ce le-a permis să promoveze la vânzări circa 50.000 de hoteluri internaționale din 205 țări, peste 455 de circuite cu avionul și autocarul, sute de informații despre destinațiile alese.\r\n\r\nInvestiția totală a Millennium Tour se va ridica la peste 1 milion de euro, sumă ce va fi concentrată în special în dezvoltarea platformei de rezervări. Investiția inițială a proiectului a pornit de la 100.000 de euro. Creatorii conceptului au afirmat că intenționează să vândă această afacere, peste circa 5 ani, când va ajunge la o profitabilitate substanțială.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU\r\n\r\nASK FOR TAX FREE - S-a întâmplat minunea\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Tax-free-Valentina-Saygo.jpg\")

Dacă au avut ceva bani, și tot nu știau pe ce să-i cheltuiască băieții de la Externe, Comunicații și Turism au pus de o dezbatere “România în contextul retragerii Marii Britanii din Uniunea Europeană”. Ceva discret, cu ușile închise, prilej de șprituri și îmbrățișări. Pentru ca să se vadă că au lucrat serios au emis și un comunicat de presă... scris într-o limbă păsărească. Un fragment din el vi-l aducem la cunoștință. Citiți și vă... delectați. ”Documentul cuprinde o analiză de impact aprofundată a efectului ieșirii Marii Britanii din UE asupra României, precum și o analiză a oportunităților pe care le prezintă retragerea Marii Britanii din UE. Obiectivul general este acela de a asigura un cadru de referinţă care să permită abordarea coordonată, la nivel guvernamental, a aspectelor complexe generate de procesul Brexit, marcând liniile generale ale abordării României şi permiţând totodată o flexibilitate de natură să acomodeze evoluţiile inerente unui proces de negociere dinamic și impredictibil... etc.” Bine măcar că nu le-au băgat pe alea cu prioritizarea și mai nou cu... dezvoltabilitatea.','Modelul francez si limba de lemn, EDITORIAL nr.162-163','','inherit','closed','closed','','6140-revision-v1','','','2018-02-11 13:34:24','2018-02-11 11:34:24','',6140,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2018/02/11/6140-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6146,1,'2018-02-11 13:35:28','2018-02-11 11:35:28','','Travel Senior Voyage','','inherit','open','closed','','travel-senior-voyage','','','2018-02-11 13:35:28','2018-02-11 11:35:28','',6138,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Travel-Senior-Voyage.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6147,1,'2018-02-11 13:35:49','2018-02-11 11:35:49','Christian Tour a lansat oficial noile pachete Senior Voyage, în cadrul celui mai mare eveniment din România dedicat seniorilor (turiștilor de peste 55 de ani) pasionați de călătorii.

Parafrazându-l am putea spune că sunt zeci de mii de turiști care trec pe lângă Castelul de la Miclăușeni (amplasat la numai 65 kilometri de Iaşi şi la 21 kilometri de Roman). Dar niciunul nu ar trebui să -l ocolească.\n\n\nUn indicator greu sesizabil, mascat de perdele de arbori, ne invită să pătrundem pe o alee umbroasă ce duce spre un castel izvorât parcă dintr-o legendă. Cu turnuleţe, dantelării în piatră şi ziduri gălbui. Ansamblul de la Miclăuşeni este format din 3 monumente: Biserica \"Sf. Voievozi\", \"Buna Vestire\" - datând din 1787, Castelul Sturdza - datând din secolul al XVII-lea, reclădit în 1752 şi în secolul al XIX-lea şi Parcul - datând din secolul al XIX-lea. La intrarea în castel ne întâmpină Sebastian Marcoci, administratorul muzeului.\n„Castelul a fost ridicat ca dar de nuntă făcut de George A. Sturdza soţiei sale Maria. Lucrările au început în 1880, pe locul vechiului conac, la un an după căsătoria celor doi. Maria era fiica lui Ion Ghica, cunoscutul scriitor şi politician şi avea un suflet de artist, având înclinaţie spre pictură. A pictat ea însăşi pereţii, ajutată de artişti francezi. La mobilarea şi decorarea interioarelor au participat meşteri din Bucovina şi Germania. George Sturdza a făcut eforturi financiare deosebite, vânzând o parte din moşii, iar castelul a fost terminat abia în 1904.”\n\nArt Nouveau și tuneluri secrete\nEvoluţia castelului s-a făcut în etape, cu suişuri şi coborâşuri, legate de istoria ţării. În timpul primului război mondial a găzduit un spital de campanie. Pentru alinarea răniţilor aici a concertat şi marele nostru muzician George Enescu. După 1918 castelul şi întreg domeniul au revenit Ecaterinei Şerban Cantacuzino, singura fiică a celor doi, rămasă văduvă de tânără şi fără copii. Ea s-a preocupat de administrarea castelului împreună cu mama sa, până la moartea acesteia în 1937. Castelul a cunoscut o strălucire deosebită în perioada interbelică.\n\nDupă ce a avut de suferit în urma a două incendii şi infiltrării apei, în anul 2003 castelul a intrat într-un program de restaurare. S-au efectuat atunci lucrări de consolidare şi au fost reconstituite după fotografii elementele decorative pierdute. Piese de mobilier din lemn, în special uşi, ferestre, lambriuri, scări interioare din lemn şi parchetul original au fost restaurate şi conservate în anii 2003-2005”.\n\nDeşi lucrările de restaurare nu au fost finalizate în totalitate, o vizită la castelul Sturdza de la Miclăuşeni vă va încânta. Custodele Sebastian Marcoci, continuă în circuitul său cultural cu relatări inedite: „Castelul a fost construit după planuri inspirate de călătoriile lor în Franţa, Germania şi Austria. În încăperile de acolo era un atelier de ţesătorie, se mai numea camera femeilor, şi e interesant că din interior se putea intra pe o uşă secretă într-un tunel de evacuare ce are ieşirea către mănăstire, în satul Miclăuşeni. Există un proiect să se refacă drumul până la mănăstire. Elementele de originalitate sunt picturile, elementele de feronerie şi tâmplărie şi câteva sobe. Piesele de mobilier sunt majoritatea achiziţii ulterioare sau donaţii.”\n\nCastelul a fost amenajat cu meşteri austrieci, care realizau sobele, tâmplăria sau parchetul, câteodată acesta din urmă oglindind modelul tavanelor, ne mai spune interlocutorul nostru. În 1944 tot castelul a fost ocupat de armata sovietică. Camerele acestea din latura nordică, fac parte din vechiul conac, construit la 1755, tavanele aici sunt ogivale, iar în cămăruţa aceasta a stat Ecaterina (fiica Mariei şi a lui G Sturdza). Baia aceasta se mai numea baia Mariei. Decorurile sunt de inspiraţie orientală pentru că Maria a trăit la Istanbul. În colţ e un lavoar, iar în spatele lavoarului era a doua uşă secretă către tunel. Mozaicurile sunt originale. În castel au fost 21 de sobe, toate mergeau pe acelaşi principiu, iar castelul, fiind tot de cărămidă, se menţinea cald. Pictura castelului face parte din stilul Art Nouveau. Predomină animale fantastice în special şi elemente principale din balzonul familiei: crucea cu şarpele şi leul, pe care l-aţi văzut şi pe exterior“ - mai arată Marcoci.\n\nCărți prețioase făcute... opinci\n„Familia Sturdza era formată din intelectuali, oameni instruiţi, dar în acelaşi timp foarte religioşi”, spune ghidul nostru. „De aceea, aici nu se organizau petreceri luxoase, ci doar nişte serate culturale la care erau invitaţi mari oameni de cultură ai ţării. Strudzeştii deţineau o bibliotecă preţioasă formată din 60.000 de volume, strânse de-a lungul timpului de diverşi membri ai familiei, precum şi mai multe colecţii, astăzi dispărute: de arme şi costume medievale, de bijuterii, piese arheologice rare, monezi, busturi din marmură de Carara şi tablouri în ulei.”\n\nO dată cu începerea celui de-al doilea război mondial vremuri grele s-au abătut asupra edificiului. În august 1944, soldaţii sovietici s-au instalat în castel şi au folosit cărţile pentru foc. O altă parte din cărţi au fost vândute negustorilor evrei din Roman şi Târgu Frumos care le-au folosit ca hârtie de ambalaj. În fine, ţăranii din jur şi-au făcut opinci din scoarţele de piele. Mobilierul şi alte lucruri de valoare au fost vândute de ruşi sau pur şi simplu furate. Regimul comunist avea să desăvârşească mai târziu jaful. „Conştientă că nu mai poate ţine moşia, Ecaterina a hotărât în 1947 să doneze castelul, mănăstirea şi întreg domeniul Episcopiei Ortodoxe a Romanului”. A pus o singură condiţie: înfiinţarea aici a unei mănăstiri de maici. Ea a reuşit să salveze doar o mică parte din lucrurile de valoare de aici, în special bijuterii”.\n\n”Orient Expres” trece prin curtea castelului\nNici după 1989 castelul nu a beneficiat de o soartă mai bună. Centrul de copii a rămas aici până la mijlocul anilor `90. În 2001, întreg domeniul de la Miclăuşeni a intrat în proprietatea Mitropoliei Moldovei şi Bucovinei. După această dată s-au efectuat lucrări de refacere. Apoi castelul a intrat în circuitul turistic. În anul 2003 la castel s-au realizat scene pentru filmul „Orient Expres” regizat de Sergiu Nicolaescu. „Deviza familiei Sturdza este dăltuită în limba latină şi în traducere ar suna cam aşa: frumuseţea străluceşte pretutindeni. Pe un alt perete există şi blazonul personal al lui George Sturdza, înfâţişându-l pe Sfântul Gheorghe, patronul său spiritual.”\n\nContrastul dintre exterior şi aspectul interior este izbitor. Pereţii holurilor și camerelor poartă semnele distrugerilor repetate şi conţin doar urme din pictura de odinioară. Există proiecte pentru refacerea interioarelor? „Nutresc speranţa că în timp vom reuşi să redăm castelului strălucirea de altădată. Apelăm şi la ajutorul centrului socio-cultural „Sf. Ilie” pentru strângere de fonduri. În acest scop organizăm diverse evenimente culturale, festivaluri. În septembrie are loc un festival de epocă. Folosim o recuzită adecvată pentru a crea o atmosferă de belle époque, specifică începutului de veac XX.”\n\nUn parc exotic și evenimente retro\nFamilia Sturdza era iubitoare de natură, dar şi de linişte. După 1837, Alecu Sturdza şi soţia sa Ecaterina, au creat o frumoasă grădină în stil englezesc. Astăzi parcul a căpătat o aură romantică semănând cu o pădure naturală, întinsă pe o suprafaţă de 30 de hectare. Vechimea arborilor ajunge până la 150 de ani. Decanul de vârstă îl reprezintă un stejar care se apropie de 4 secole. Există în jur de 90 de specii de copaci, atât autohtoni, cât şi exotici sau ornamentali, cum ar fi ginkgo biloba sau salcâmul japonez.\n\nÎn vechile acareturi ale castelului au fost amenajate clădirile centrului socio – cultural „Sf. Ilie” aflat sub patronajul Mitropoliei Moldovei şi Bucovinei. Acestea cuprind pavilionul administrativ, un restaurant cu specific moldovenesc şi câteva camere de odihnă. Aici funcționează și un hotel cu 31 de camere (dotate cu tot confortul, inclusiv acces la internet), aşa încât trecătorii pot să-şi îngăduie câteva zile liniștite de vacanță. Restaurantul dispune de 70 de locuri, iar terasa de vară are 30 de locuri. Complexul oferă o gamă largă de servicii: mese festive, cine tradiţionale, organizare de manifestări ştiinţifice, workshopuri de afaceri, traininguri, tabere educaţionale, concerte, festivaluri etc. Complexul e deschis sâmbăta şi duminica între orele 12.00 – 17.00, tururile fiind ghidate. Vizitarea castelului se poate face şi în cursul săptămânii după o programare prealabilă.

Parafrazându-l am putea spune că sunt zeci de mii de turiști care trec pe lângă Castelul de la Miclăușeni (amplasat la numai 65 kilometri de Iaşi şi la 21 kilometri de Roman). Dar niciunul nu ar trebui să -l ocolească.\r\n\r\n\r\nUn indicator greu sesizabil, mascat de perdele de arbori, ne invită să pătrundem pe o alee umbroasă ce duce spre un castel izvorât parcă dintr-o legendă. Cu turnuleţe, dantelării în piatră şi ziduri gălbui. Ansamblul de la Miclăuşeni este format din 3 monumente: Biserica \"Sf. Voievozi\", \"Buna Vestire\" - datând din 1787, Castelul Sturdza - datând din secolul al XVII-lea, reclădit în 1752 şi în secolul al XIX-lea şi Parcul - datând din secolul al XIX-lea. La intrarea în castel ne întâmpină Sebastian Marcoci, administratorul muzeului.\r\n„Castelul a fost ridicat ca dar de nuntă făcut de George A. Sturdza soţiei sale Maria. Lucrările au început în 1880, pe locul vechiului conac, la un an după căsătoria celor doi. Maria era fiica lui Ion Ghica, cunoscutul scriitor şi politician şi avea un suflet de artist, având înclinaţie spre pictură. A pictat ea însăşi pereţii, ajutată de artişti francezi. La mobilarea şi decorarea interioarelor au participat meşteri din Bucovina şi Germania. George Sturdza a făcut eforturi financiare deosebite, vânzând o parte din moşii, iar castelul a fost terminat abia în 1904.”\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6153,6154,6155,6157,6158,6159,6160,6161\"]\r\n\r\nArt Nouveau și tuneluri secrete\r\nEvoluţia castelului s-a făcut în etape, cu suişuri şi coborâşuri, legate de istoria ţării. În timpul primului război mondial a găzduit un spital de campanie. Pentru alinarea răniţilor aici a concertat şi marele nostru muzician George Enescu. După 1918 castelul şi întreg domeniul au revenit Ecaterinei Şerban Cantacuzino, singura fiică a celor doi, rămasă văduvă de tânără şi fără copii. Ea s-a preocupat de administrarea castelului împreună cu mama sa, până la moartea acesteia în 1937. Castelul a cunoscut o strălucire deosebită în perioada interbelică.\r\n\r\nDupă ce a avut de suferit în urma a două incendii şi infiltrării apei, în anul 2003 castelul a intrat într-un program de restaurare. S-au efectuat atunci lucrări de consolidare şi au fost reconstituite după fotografii elementele decorative pierdute. Piese de mobilier din lemn, în special uşi, ferestre, lambriuri, scări interioare din lemn şi parchetul original au fost restaurate şi conservate în anii 2003-2005”.\r\n\r\nDeşi lucrările de restaurare nu au fost finalizate în totalitate, o vizită la castelul Sturdza de la Miclăuşeni vă va încânta. Custodele Sebastian Marcoci, continuă în circuitul său cultural cu relatări inedite: „Castelul a fost construit după planuri inspirate de călătoriile lor în Franţa, Germania şi Austria. În încăperile de acolo era un atelier de ţesătorie, se mai numea camera femeilor, şi e interesant că din interior se putea intra pe o uşă secretă într-un tunel de evacuare ce are ieşirea către mănăstire, în satul Miclăuşeni. Există un proiect să se refacă drumul până la mănăstire. Elementele de originalitate sunt picturile, elementele de feronerie şi tâmplărie şi câteva sobe. Piesele de mobilier sunt majoritatea achiziţii ulterioare sau donaţii.”\r\n\r\nCastelul a fost amenajat cu meşteri austrieci, care realizau sobele, tâmplăria sau parchetul, câteodată acesta din urmă oglindind modelul tavanelor, ne mai spune interlocutorul nostru. În 1944 tot castelul a fost ocupat de armata sovietică. Camerele acestea din latura nordică, fac parte din vechiul conac, construit la 1755, tavanele aici sunt ogivale, iar în cămăruţa aceasta a stat Ecaterina (fiica Mariei şi a lui G Sturdza). Baia aceasta se mai numea baia Mariei. Decorurile sunt de inspiraţie orientală pentru că Maria a trăit la Istanbul. În colţ e un lavoar, iar în spatele lavoarului era a doua uşă secretă către tunel. Mozaicurile sunt originale. În castel au fost 21 de sobe, toate mergeau pe acelaşi principiu, iar castelul, fiind tot de cărămidă, se menţinea cald. Pictura castelului face parte din stilul Art Nouveau. Predomină animale fantastice în special şi elemente principale din balzonul familiei: crucea cu şarpele şi leul, pe care l-aţi văzut şi pe exterior“ - mai arată Marcoci.\r\n\r\nCărți prețioase făcute... opinci\r\n„Familia Sturdza era formată din intelectuali, oameni instruiţi, dar în acelaşi timp foarte religioşi”, spune ghidul nostru. „De aceea, aici nu se organizau petreceri luxoase, ci doar nişte serate culturale la care erau invitaţi mari oameni de cultură ai ţării. Strudzeştii deţineau o bibliotecă preţioasă formată din 60.000 de volume, strânse de-a lungul timpului de diverşi membri ai familiei, precum şi mai multe colecţii, astăzi dispărute: de arme şi costume medievale, de bijuterii, piese arheologice rare, monezi, busturi din marmură de Carara şi tablouri în ulei.”\r\n\r\nO dată cu începerea celui de-al doilea război mondial vremuri grele s-au abătut asupra edificiului. În august 1944, soldaţii sovietici s-au instalat în castel şi au folosit cărţile pentru foc. O altă parte din cărţi au fost vândute negustorilor evrei din Roman şi Târgu Frumos care le-au folosit ca hârtie de ambalaj. În fine, ţăranii din jur şi-au făcut opinci din scoarţele de piele. Mobilierul şi alte lucruri de valoare au fost vândute de ruşi sau pur şi simplu furate. Regimul comunist avea să desăvârşească mai târziu jaful. „Conştientă că nu mai poate ţine moşia, Ecaterina a hotărât în 1947 să doneze castelul, mănăstirea şi întreg domeniul Episcopiei Ortodoxe a Romanului”. A pus o singură condiţie: înfiinţarea aici a unei mănăstiri de maici. Ea a reuşit să salveze doar o mică parte din lucrurile de valoare de aici, în special bijuterii”.\r\n\r\n”Orient Expres” trece prin curtea castelului\r\nNici după 1989 castelul nu a beneficiat de o soartă mai bună. Centrul de copii a rămas aici până la mijlocul anilor `90. În 2001, întreg domeniul de la Miclăuşeni a intrat în proprietatea Mitropoliei Moldovei şi Bucovinei. După această dată s-au efectuat lucrări de refacere. Apoi castelul a intrat în circuitul turistic. În anul 2003 la castel s-au realizat scene pentru filmul „Orient Expres” regizat de Sergiu Nicolaescu. „Deviza familiei Sturdza este dăltuită în limba latină şi în traducere ar suna cam aşa: frumuseţea străluceşte pretutindeni.

Cu toate acestea James Smithson, un cunoscut om de știință britanic (chimist și mineralog), a fondat Smithsonian Institute ce patronează cea mai prestigioasă rețea de muzee cu acces gratuit. 19 în total, dintre care 16 în Washington DC, 2 în New York, respectiv 1 în Virginia, ce găzduiesc 137 de milioane de exponate. Smithsonian a pornit la drum în 1829, cu donația generoasă făcută la moartea sa de către James. Smitsonian Institute s-a deschis însă în 1976 după derularea unor ample programe de cercetare și achiziții. Acest uriaș rezervor cultural, organizează anual circa 50 de expoziții itinerante în sute de orașe din SUA.\n\nMuzeul Național Aerospațial: Călător printre ”Pietrele Zborului”\nPotrivit celei mai recente ediții a ghidului turistic al SUA National Air & Space Museum ar fi ”cel mai vizitat muzeu din lume”. A fost fondat în 1976 și are un ”frate mai mic” în Virginia. Dar numai în DC poți să te intersectezi cu Spirit of St. Louis, construit special pentru Charles Lindberg, ce a efectuat primul zbor transatlantic din 1927; cu frații Wright, considerați a fi inventatorii și constructorii primului avion cu care au făcut primul zbor pe 17 decembrie 1903; cu celebrul Loockheed Vega, pilotat de Amelia Earhart, prima femeie care a traversat Atlanticul în 1932. Altă parte din cele 23 de galerii este dedicată aeronavelor moderne, rachetelor dar și navetelor spațiale. Îți dau întâlnire aici Apollo 11 și familia sa - Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armostrong și Michael Collins - care a aterizat în 1969 pe Lună, Columbia, Skylab, modul conceput pentru a orbita în jurul Terrei cu trei persoane la bord, alte aparate de zbor cu care au fost efectuate zboruri memorabile, colecții de roci și alte elemente materiale aduse de pe Lună etc. Dacă nu vă mai țin picioarele, o pauză la cinematografele din incintă, unde aveți ocazia să vă completați cultura... cosmică, e recomandată. Nu ratați nici Imax-ul, cu efectele speciale. Dacă sunteți mai rezistenți dați fuga la secțiunea dedicată celui de-al II-lea Război Mondial pot fi văzute avioane cu care au luptat americanii, englezii, germanii și japonezii. Deși acum este pace, aici e o permanentă forfotă, sălile cu aceste exponate fiind printre cele mai frecventate. În fine, o cafea e binevenită la un bar de la nivelurile superioare ale clădirii. Panorama ce ți se oferă exprimă o mare parte din geniul proiectanților și constructorilor de aeronave. Design interior dominat de sticlă, beton, scări din aluminiu și racorduri de oțel. Dacă ai și șansa de a prinde un eveniment, noi am avut-o, poți asculta un recital de blues ori jazz, dintr-o aeronavă Airbus sau chiar din cabina piloților.\n\nSpy Museum: Arta de a fura secrete\n\nDacă aveți prejudecăți lăsați-le la garderobă. Spy Museum, este unic prin originalitatea și modernitatea expunerii. Este singurul muzeu american dedicat ”artei spionajului”. Face parte din galeria muzeelor private din Washington. Trebuie să-l vizitați, măcar odată în viață, ca și pe celelalte trei din acest reportaj. De ce? Argumente ne-au fost oferite de către Aliza Bran, PR și Marketing coordonator la această instituție. ”Din 2002, de când a fost inaugurat aici prezentăm cea mai mare colecție internațională de obiecte, produse secrete, armament, dispozitive de urmărire, ascultare, documente, mașini, îmbrăcăminte specială. Nu sunt copii ori mulaje, ci chiar cele folosite de către spionii din toate timpurile, care au schimbat cursul istoriei.”\n\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6165,6166,6167,6168,6169,6170\"]\n\nO incursiune în sălile muzeului este distractivă dar și educativă. Încă de la început poți adopta o identitate de spion. Ești coordonat și îndrumat ce trebuie să faci sau cum trebuie să acționezi. Vrei să aprofundezi fenomentul și utilitatea sa? Atunci trebuie să treci prin mai multe etape. Din secțiunea de expuneri pleci la întâlnirea cu profesorii Școlii de Spionaj, apoi înveți cât mai multe lecții în sala dedicată secretelor istoriei numită sugestiv ”The Secret History of History”. Vei afla că spionajul era practicat din vremurile biblice, iar până în timpurile moderne el a evoluat ideologic dar și tehnologic. Diversitatea scenariilor ține de interesele statelor de a atinge anumite ținte. Dacă nu știați, aflați! George Washington autoriza, printr-un act din 1777 crearea la New York a unei noi rețele de spionaj. Din scrisoarea expusă în muzeu reiese că omul, unul dintre președinții Statelor Unite, era un profesionist al acestei arte, ca și Daniel Defoe, autorul celebrului roman Robinson Crusoe. La secțiunea ”Spionii printre noi” regăsim celebrități care chiar ar fi fost păcat să nu fie spioni - Josephine Baker, Marlene Dietrich, Mata Hari, celebrul Chef Julia Child, regizorul John Ford etc. Primul aspect cu care te familiarizează proiecțiile documentare este ”fenomentul există, cel mai bine e să fi informat.”\n\nCum era de anticipat, cel mai frecventat spațiu este cel dedicat filmului care bate viața. Cel mai iubit spion de către femei, dar cel mai urât de către bărbații, celebrul James Bond 007, ne zîmbește din ramele unor afișe, în diverse variante de actori de la prima peliculă ”Dr. NO” (1962) până la ”Skyfall” distribuit în ultimii ani. Personajul a fost îmbrățișat de toată lumea fiind receptat ca o... realitate. În secțiunea ”Grand Truth” vă întâlniți cu perspectiva profesiei în secolul 21: războaie cibernetice, inteligențe artificiale, arme de distrugere în masă etc. Aveți ocazia de a testa asemenea experiențe apelând la programul de o oră oferit de ”Operation Spy”. Ras, tuns și frezat sunteți transformat în spion, dotat cu arme și obiective clare, interacționați cu programe video-tehnice cu ajutorul cărora salvați omenirea de la o catastrofă nucleară. Dacă vă animă ambiții mai mici puteți lucra cu un GPS și salva Washigton-ul de un atac cibernetic. Firește, la sfârșit nu puteți pleca fără ”coșul de spionaj”. Peste 500 de cărți, filme, broșuri, jucării pentru spioni, șosete, tricouri, cravate, fulare vă stau la dispoziție. S-ar putea să vă trebuiască. Este spionajul artă, spectacol sau o profesie de temut? Răspunsul e la un bulevard distanță, în sediul FBI.\n\nNews Museum: Presa este oglinda istoriei\n\n\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6171,6172,6173,6174,6175,6176\"]\n\n\nTrei mari locații speciale ne-au stârnit interesul când am fost invitați să participăm la un eveniment pentru presă, organizat la ediția din acest an de la IPW Washington. Muzeul dedicat importanței știrilor, în general producătorilor de presă, reprezintă o inițiativă privată. Astfel în fiecare zi, poți parcurge, pe suporturile din fața News Museum, printurile primelor pagini ale cotidienelor americane. Același tip de galerie se regăsește și în spațiul ce comemorează tragedia din 9/11 septembrie de la World Trade Center din New York. În centru lui un pilon de rezistență contorsionat în timpul incendiilor pe care se afla o antenă satelit pentru comunicații. Este un omagiu adus în același timp jurnaliștilor care și-au sacrificat chiar și viața de-a lungul istoriei, pentru a apăra dreptul la liberă exprimare. În jurul acestei valori au fost organizate toate expozițiile de documente. Pe cele 7 etaje ce includ 15 galerii, poate fi urmărită dezvoltarea industriilor media, de la presa scrisă, TV, radio până la cele multimedia.\n\nAl doilea spațiu expozițional de la News Museum se află chiar în partea dreaptă a intrării. E Salonul Fotografilor distinși cu Premiul Pulitzer (înființat în 1904), o distincție, suntem convinși că știți, considerată a fi echivalentul Oscarului decernat pentru jurnalism american. În acest loc printre fotografii alb-negru și color, descoperi și cel mai tragic premiu (ce redă pânda unui vultur uriaș care așteaptă să se înfigă în trupul unui copil muribund), ce apaține fotoreporterului care s-a sinucis realizând ulterior că nu a făcut nimic pentru a salva copilul. Semn că deseori o fotografie spune tot, dar nu salvează nimic. După ce parcurgi galeria cu sute de fotografii majoritatea suprinse în timpul unor războaie ori conflagrații armate, îți dai seama că dacă aceste uriașe drame n-ar fi existat, o parte din omenire ar fi fost mult mai frumoasă, ca și fotografiile ce ar fi fost realizate. Dar, se pare, moartea e mai fotogenică.\n\nÎn fine la News Museum vizitatorul descoperă că presa profesionistă a construit un drum spre conștiința lumii prin devotamentul celor ce o slujesc, prin informarea corectă a consumatorului de informații. În contrapunct ți se prezintă diverse tehnici de manipulare și interceptare media, care au afectat și distorsionat spațiul de comunicare de-a lungul istoriei. Un episod a fost Zidul Berlinului, căruia îi și este dedicată cea mai mare expoziție din afara granițelor Germaniei. ”Prin expozițiile noastre, prin planificarea inițiativei cu scop educațional, misiunea News Museum este de a promova, explica și apăra dreptul la liberă exprimare consfințit de Constituția americană. Credem că astăzi misiunea muzeului este mai importantă ca oricând căci drepturile fundamentale continuă să fie amenințate aici dar și pe întregul mapamond” - ne declara Monica Garney, Sales & marketing manager la instituția vizitată.\n\nMuzeul Bibliei: Așa ceva chiar există\n\nE gata. La jumătatea lui noiembrie va fi inaugurat. Pentru noi echipa Traveller Magazin deschiderea lui are o semnificație aparte. Am fost onorați să ne numărăm printre puținii jurnaliști ce au avut șansa de a intra în Muzeul Bibliei, chiar în faza de șantier, când căpătau contur sălile expoziționale ale clădirii cu 7 etaje. Le-am parcurs pe toate cu sentimentul că participăm la ”repetițiile” unui spectacol memorabil.\n\nNașterea unui muzeu unic. La fiecare etaj ni s-au redat etape ale amenajării tematice a clădirii, aflată în apropierea Capitoliului. Gazda noastră Jeremy C. Burton, Directorul de comunicare și marketing ne-a inițiat în ceea ce va deveni în curând acest muzeu.

11:44:27','Cosmonauți, ziariști, spioni cu mâna pe Biblie\r\nNu a vizitat niciodată Statele Unite. Cu toate acestea James Smithson, un cunoscut om de știință britanic (chimist și mineralog), a fondat Smithsonian Institute ce patronează cea mai prestigioasă rețea de muzee cu acces gratuit. 19 în total, dintre care 16 în Washington DC, 2 în New York, respectiv 1 în Virginia, ce găzduiesc 137 de milioane de exponate. Smithsonian a pornit la drum în 1829, cu donația generoasă făcută la moartea sa de către James. Smitsonian Institute s-a deschis însă în 1976 după derularea unor ample programe de cercetare și achiziții. Acest uriaș rezervor cultural, organizează anual circa 50 de expoziții itinerante în sute de orașe din SUA.\r\n\r\nMuzeul Național Aerospațial: Călător printre ”Pietrele Zborului”\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6182,6183,6184,6185\"]\r\n\r\n\r\nPotrivit celei mai recente ediții a ghidului turistic al SUA National Air & Space Museum ar fi ”cel mai vizitat muzeu din lume”. A fost fondat în 1976 și are un ”frate mai mic” în Virginia. Dar numai în DC poți să te intersectezi cu Spirit of St. Louis, construit special pentru Charles Lindberg, ce a efectuat primul zbor transatlantic din 1927; cu frații Wright, considerați a fi inventatorii și constructorii primului avion cu care au făcut primul zbor pe 17 decembrie 1903; cu celebrul Loockheed Vega, pilotat de Amelia Earhart, prima femeie care a traversat Atlanticul în 1932. Altă parte din cele 23 de galerii este dedicată aeronavelor moderne, rachetelor dar și navetelor spațiale. Îți dau întâlnire aici Apollo 11 și familia sa - Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armostrong și Michael Collins - care a aterizat în 1969 pe Lună, Columbia, Skylab, modul conceput pentru a orbita în jurul Terrei cu trei persoane la bord, alte aparate de zbor cu care au fost efectuate zboruri memorabile, colecții de roci și alte elemente materiale aduse de pe Lună etc. Dacă nu vă mai țin picioarele, o pauză la cinematografele din incintă, unde aveți ocazia să vă completați cultura... cosmică, e recomandată. Nu ratați nici Imax-ul, cu efectele speciale. Dacă sunteți mai rezistenți dați fuga la secțiunea dedicată celui de-al II-lea Război Mondial pot fi văzute avioane cu care au luptat americanii, englezii, germanii și japonezii. Deși acum este pace, aici e o permanentă forfotă, sălile cu aceste exponate fiind printre cele mai frecventate. În fine, o cafea e binevenită la un bar de la nivelurile superioare ale clădirii. Panorama ce ți se oferă exprimă o mare parte din geniul proiectanților și constructorilor de aeronave. Design interior dominat de sticlă, beton, scări din aluminiu și racorduri de oțel. Dacă ai și șansa de a prinde un eveniment, noi am avut-o, poți asculta un recital de blues ori jazz, dintr-o aeronavă Airbus sau chiar din cabina piloților.\r\n\r\nSpy Museum: Arta de a fura secrete\r\n\r\nDacă aveți prejudecăți lăsați-le la garderobă. Spy Museum, este unic prin originalitatea și modernitatea expunerii. Este singurul muzeu american dedicat ”artei spionajului”. Face parte din galeria muzeelor private din Washington. Trebuie să-l vizitați, măcar odată în viață, ca și pe celelalte trei din acest reportaj. De ce? Argumente ne-au fost oferite de către Aliza Bran, PR și Marketing coordonator la această instituție. ”Din 2002, de când a fost inaugurat aici prezentăm cea mai mare colecție internațională de obiecte, produse secrete, armament, dispozitive de urmărire, ascultare, documente, mașini, îmbrăcăminte specială. Nu sunt copii ori mulaje, ci chiar cele folosite de către spionii din toate timpurile, care au schimbat cursul istoriei.”\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6165,6166,6167,6168,6169,6170\"]\r\n\r\nO incursiune în sălile muzeului este distractivă dar și educativă. Încă de la început poți adopta o identitate de spion. Ești coordonat și îndrumat ce trebuie să faci sau cum trebuie să acționezi. Vrei să aprofundezi fenomentul și utilitatea sa? Atunci trebuie să treci prin mai multe etape. Din secțiunea de expuneri pleci la întâlnirea cu profesorii Școlii de Spionaj, apoi înveți cât mai multe lecții în sala dedicată secretelor istoriei numită sugestiv ”The Secret History of History”. Vei afla că spionajul era practicat din vremurile biblice, iar până în timpurile moderne el a evoluat ideologic dar și tehnologic. Diversitatea scenariilor ține de interesele statelor de a atinge anumite ținte. Dacă nu știați, aflați! George Washington autoriza, printr-un act din 1777 crearea la New York a unei noi rețele de spionaj. Din scrisoarea expusă în muzeu reiese că omul, unul dintre președinții Statelor Unite, era un profesionist al acestei arte, ca și Daniel Defoe, autorul celebrului roman Robinson Crusoe. La secțiunea ”Spionii printre noi” regăsim celebrități care chiar ar fi fost păcat să nu fie spioni - Josephine Baker, Marlene Dietrich, Mata Hari, celebrul Chef Julia Child, regizorul John Ford etc. Primul aspect cu care te familiarizează proiecțiile documentare este ”fenomentul există, cel mai bine e să fi informat.”\r\n\r\nCum era de anticipat, cel mai frecventat spațiu este cel dedicat filmului care bate viața. Cel mai iubit spion de către femei, dar cel mai urât de către bărbații, celebrul James Bond 007, ne zîmbește din ramele unor afișe, în diverse variante de actori de la prima peliculă ”Dr. NO” (1962) până la ”Skyfall” distribuit în ultimii ani. Personajul a fost îmbrățișat de toată lumea fiind receptat ca o... realitate. În secțiunea ”Grand Truth” vă întâlniți cu perspectiva profesiei în secolul 21: războaie cibernetice, inteligențe artificiale, arme de distrugere în masă etc. Aveți ocazia de a testa asemenea experiențe apelând la programul de o oră oferit de ”Operation Spy”. Ras, tuns și frezat sunteți transformat în spion, dotat cu arme și obiective clare, interacționați cu programe video-tehnice cu ajutorul cărora salvați omenirea de la o catastrofă nucleară. Dacă vă animă ambiții mai mici puteți lucra cu un GPS și salva Washigton-ul de un atac cibernetic. Firește, la sfârșit nu puteți pleca fără ”coșul de spionaj”. Peste 500 de cărți, filme, broșuri, jucării pentru spioni, șosete, tricouri, cravate, fulare vă stau la dispoziție. S-ar putea să vă trebuiască. Este spionajul artă, spectacol sau o profesie de temut? Răspunsul e la un bulevard distanță, în sediul FBI.\r\n\r\nNews Museum: Presa este oglinda istoriei\r\n\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6171,6172,6173,6174,6175,6176\"]\r\n\r\n\r\nTrei mari locații speciale ne-au stârnit interesul când am fost invitați să participăm la un eveniment pentru presă, organizat la ediția din acest an de la IPW Washington. Muzeul dedicat importanței știrilor, în general producătorilor de presă, reprezintă o inițiativă privată. Astfel în fiecare zi, poți parcurge, pe suporturile din fața News Museum, printurile primelor pagini ale cotidienelor americane. Același tip de galerie se regăsește și în spațiul ce comemorează tragedia din 9/11 septembrie de la World Trade Center din New York. În centru lui un pilon de rezistență contorsionat în timpul incendiilor pe care se afla o antenă satelit pentru comunicații. Este un omagiu adus în același timp jurnaliștilor care și-au sacrificat chiar și viața de-a lungul istoriei, pentru a apăra dreptul la liberă exprimare. În jurul acestei valori au fost organizate toate expozițiile de documente. Pe cele 7 etaje ce includ 15 galerii, poate fi urmărită dezvoltarea industriilor media, de la presa scrisă, TV, radio până la cele multimedia.\r\n\r\nAl doilea spațiu expozițional de la News Museum se află chiar în partea dreaptă a intrării. E Salonul Fotografilor distinși cu Premiul Pulitzer (înființat în 1904), o distincție, suntem convinși că știți, considerată a fi echivalentul Oscarului decernat pentru jurnalism american. În acest loc printre fotografii alb-negru și color, descoperi și cel mai tragic premiu (ce redă pânda unui vultur uriaș care așteaptă să se înfigă în trupul unui copil muribund), ce apaține fotoreporterului care s-a sinucis realizând ulterior că nu a făcut nimic pentru a salva copilul. Semn că deseori o fotografie spune tot, dar nu salvează nimic. După ce parcurgi galeria cu sute de fotografii majoritatea suprinse în timpul unor războaie ori conflagrații armate, îți dai seama că dacă aceste uriașe drame n-ar fi existat, o parte din omenire ar fi fost mult mai frumoasă, ca și fotografiile ce ar fi fost realizate. Dar, se pare, moartea e mai fotogenică.\r\n\r\nÎn fine la News Museum vizitatorul descoperă că presa profesionistă a construit un drum spre conștiința lumii prin devotamentul celor ce o slujesc, prin informarea corectă a consumatorului de informații. În contrapunct ți se prezintă diverse tehnici de manipulare și interceptare media, care au afectat și distorsionat spațiul de comunicare de-a lungul istoriei. Un episod a fost Zidul Berlinului, căruia îi și este dedicată cea mai mare expoziție din afara granițelor Germaniei. ”Prin expozițiile noastre, prin planificarea inițiativei cu scop educațional, misiunea News Museum este de a promova, explica și apăra dreptul la liberă exprimare consfințit de Constituția americană. Credem că astăzi misiunea muzeului este mai importantă ca oricând căci drepturile fundamentale continuă să fie amenințate aici dar și pe întregul mapamond” - ne declara Monica Garney, Sales & marketing manager la instituția vizitată.\r\n\r\nMuzeul Bibliei: Așa ceva chiar există\r\n\r\nE gata. La jumătatea lui noiembrie va fi inaugurat. Pentru noi echipa Traveller Magazin deschiderea lui are o semnificație aparte. Am fost onorați să ne numărăm printre puținii jurnaliști ce au avut șansa de a intra în Muzeul Bibliei, chiar în faza de șantier, când căpătau contur sălile expoziționale ale clădirii cu 7 etaje. Le-am parcurs pe toate cu sentimentul că participăm la ”repetițiile” unui spectacol memorabil.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6178,6179,6180,6181\"]\r\n\r\nNașterea unui muzeu unic. La fiecare etaj ni s-au redat etape ale amenajării tematice a clădirii, aflată în apropierea Capitoliului. Gazda noastră Jeremy C. Burton, Directorul de comunicare și marketing ne-a inițiat în ceea ce va deveni în curând acest muzeu. Ușile impunătoare ale clădirii sunt realizate din bronz masiv, holul de la intrare este acoperit de un imens ecran pe care se vor face în permanență proiecții cu episoade din istoria Bibliei, fiecare sală va semăna cu o bijuterie tehnică aici fiind implementate cele mai noi tehnologii expoziționale. Ni se vorbește de pardoseli mobile, iluminat economic și inteligent, scări rulante, climatizare controlată în funcție de tipul exponatelor iar la ultimul etaj, cireașa de pe tort. Este amenajată o grădină specială, culturi bio de legume și fructe, dar și una de plante, toate amintind de timpul istoric al Bibliei.\r\n\r\n”Muzeul o inițiativă privată, va povesti istoria Bibliei și o va ilustra prin recrearea unor spații mitice. Acum când l-am vizitat avem aproape configurată celebra grădină Ghetsimani. Într-un spațiu special amenajat vor fi expuse exemplare rare ale Bibliei - circa 600 -, scrise în circa 2000 de limbi și dialecte. Să nu uităm că Biblia este cea mai vândută carte a umanității. Aici vizitatorii vor putea simți cum a trecut ea prin timp și tehnologii. Muzeul Bibliei va adăposti expoziții tematice permanente dar și temporare, spectacole și conferințe. Vom avea ghizi specializați în aceste călătorii inițiatice” - a subliniat directorul Burton. Trecem fascinați prin ceea ce va fi Muzeul Bibliei, printre constructorii calmi și prietenoși. Ne oprim în locul în care sute de mii de pagini cu schițe, reproduc schemele de organizare și alimentare cu energie a spațiilor expoziționale.

Că vom călători alunecând ”responsabil” pe apele canalelor mici ori mari spre Sulina. Ce ne-a mânat? Curiozitatea de a vedea câte dintre promisiunile turistice au devenit realitate în acest oraș. Punctul de pornire este același - Complexul turistic ”Cormoranul” de la Uzlina creat, construit și administrat de familia ce-l are în capul proiectelor pe Cornel Găină.\n\n\nMotorul ambarcațiunii ecologice toarce încet. Începem să ne dezmorțim din mrejele poveștilor pescărești. Simțim vibrațiile din jur, venite dinspre coloniile de stuf și de nuferi în care se oglindesc odată cu răsăritul soarelui, promisiunile toamnei.\nDeci, cap compas, Sulina. Față de ceea ce a fost în urmă cu mai bine de două-trei sute de ani, așezarea e plină azi de amintiri. Față de ce a fost din a doua jumătate a secolului trecut, un prestigios hub de reparat nave căutat de marii armatori, peisajul e ”ridat” de regrete, ca să nu spunem de... ruine. Dar un efort de imaginație, ne îndeamnă să privim dinspre viitor. Sulina crede într-o promisiune (în ultimul deceniu și jumătate) de relansare economică, prin industria turismului. E doar o parte din adevăr. Un fost primar al localității creiona o radiografie realistă a urbei: ”S-a distrus aproape tot în Sulina. Şi dacă era război, şi tot mai rămâneau câteva întreprinderi în picioare. E frumos, sună extraordinar, dar e foarte greu să faci reconversia forţei de muncă industriale în alte domenii, ca de exemplu servicii şi turism. Nu poţi trăi permanent numai din asta la Sulina”.\n\nCU OCHII PE VISCONTI\n\nUnii susțin că o zi este suficientă pentru a vizita Sulina. Alții că ar putea fi vorba de programe de weekend, adică aproximativ 3 zile. Dar cel mai mulți aleg sejururi de o saptamână pentru vacanțe clasice sau de aventură. În ce constă aventura? Vin aici pentru vacanţe pescari, familii, iar pensiunea este full tot sezonul. Gazdele organizează partide de pescuit, vânătoare, de birdwatching şi fotohunting, excursii în Delta Dunării, la Pădurea Letea, închiriază ambarcaţiuni cu capacităţi de la 2 până la 10 persoane. Oferă în plus programe de călărie de agrement, iar pescarii amatori pot închiria profesori… de crap sau ştiucă - ne relata proprietarul unei pensiuni.\nDar grosul îl reprezintă pachetul ce cuprinde farurile, plaja unicat, Jean Bart și Cimitirul maritim, promovat din ce în ce mai mult drept... cimitirul piraților. Să le luăm pe rând. Dacă nu ştiaţi, Sulina este singurul oraş din România, ale cărei străzi principale sunt numerotate pe sistem newyorkez de la 1 la 6, cu 13 străzi perpendiculare pe fluviu. Istoria certifică documentar aşezarea în anul 950, iar prima menţionare e făcută în hărţile medievale din 1327, de Pietro Visconti, localitatea fiind menţionată ulterior ca Selina, Sunne, Solina şi, în final, ca Sulina. Două clădiri fac diferenţa. Ce ar trebui mai bine vizualizate și valorificate. Farul şi edificiul Comisiei europene a Dunării.\n\nBOTEZ, BART ȘI 4 FARURI\n\nFarul Vechi datează din 1869-1870, şi era amplasat pe acea vreme în apropierea punctului de vărsare a Dunării în Marea Neagră. Acum edificiu se află la 1,5 kilometri de ţărmul mării, ceea ce înseamnă că suprafaţa oraşului a crescut. Farul are o înălţime de 17,34 de metri. După 1989 a fost restaurat şi apoi în 2003 a fost transformat în Muzeu. L-am revizitat, și ne-a încântat faptul că a apărut un mic magazin la intrare. Turistul poate să-și cumpere acum mici suveniruri (vederi, magneți, textile, creații ceramice inscripționate cu numele orașului, cărți, hărți și broșuri despre istoria locului). Ne-a mai încântat și că ghidul local își face treaba la nivel profesionist și că a dispărut aerul acela de spațiu obosit și abandonat. O sală este dedicată comandorului Eugeniu P. Botez (unul dintre elevii lui Ion Creangă), care a îndeplinit o vreme funcţia de comisar maritim al portului. Nimeni altul decât Jean Bart, pseudonimul autorului romanului Europolis. Printre obiectele autentice expuse se numără biroul, scaunele, biblioteca, lampa de birou, tabloul și potretul scriitorului, operă a pictorului Theodor Cateliu. Ele au fost achiziționate în 1977 de la Cecilia Botez Stork, nora lui Jean Bart.\n\nFarul a fost – vă mai amintiţi nu? – şi „personaj principal” în filmul românesc de mare succes „Toate pânzele sus”. Iar fresca istorică a Europolisului a stat la baza ”Porto Franco”, o productie de referință a anilor ‘60-‘70. Dar Sulina mai deține încă trei faruri istorice. Cel de pe malul drept, de pe digul de sud cu o înălțime de 11,6 metri, dislocat de pe postamentul original în 1922 dar reinstalat pe același soclu în 1960, respectiv Farul de pe malul stîng, de pe digul de nord (13,7 metri), construit în 1887, ce difuza semnalul optic pe o distanță de 8 mile marine. El a fost o adevarată \"făclie a vieții\", pentru vasele care navigau pe brațul Sulina. Cel de-al patrulea este Farul nou, amplasat la gura Canalului Sulina. Are 48 de metri înălțime, iar lumina emisă din construcția cilindrică este vizibilă la o distanță de 19 mile marine. Nu întâmplător deci, Sulina e promovat turistic ca ”orașul celor 4 faruri”.\n\nPIRAȚI ȘI POVEȘTI DE DRAGOSTE\n\nCea mai tare găselniţă, care stă în picioare, este circuitul monumentelor funerare din Cimitirul oraşului. După Cimitirul vesel de la Săpânța, acesta are șansa de a deveni o ”atracție” la fel de votată de turiști. În ”Cimitirul Maritim” sau ”Cimitirul cosmopolit” dorm somnul de veci personalităţi ale Comisiei Dunărene - români, britanici, greci, italieni, ruşi, armeni, turci, austro-ungari, evrei, bulgari, tătari, muntenegreni, sîrbi, germani etc. E cel mai ”multicultural” cimitir istoric din România dar și din Europa. Aici se regăsesc mormintele danezului Magnusen - inginer-şef al lucrărilor din Sulina, ale inginerului Carl Kühl, ori ale unor nume de legende: prinţesa Ecaterinei Moruzi; comandorul Mihail Drăghicescu, profesor al lui Jean Bart la Şcoala de Marină Galaţi etc. William Webster, capitanul navei Adalia și Margaret Ann Pincle, deghizată în marinar, au trăit o superbă poveste de dragoste. Au murit într-un naufragiu în 1868, și au fost îngropați la Sulina. Timp de peste 300 de ani, Sulina a fost fieful piraților greci ori maltezi. Cel mai temut pare să fi fost Ghiorghios Kontoguris (din Keffalonia) pe a cărui piatră funerară e sculptat semnul piraților – “craniu de schelet şi oase încrucişate”. A jefuit sute de corabii și-a îngropat comorile dar a murit împușcat de autorități la 33 de ani.\n\nVA FI UN CENTRU CULTURAL?\n\nLa Palatul fostei Comisiuni Europene a Dunării, care mai păstrează liniile stilului neoclasic nu te cam cheamă nimic. Deși înăuntru este ascunsă o expoziție permanentă cu documente istorice. Clădirea ar putea căpăta o altă utilitate, eventual un Centru cultural şi expoziţional. La ora când am vizitat-o am constatat că plăcile de la intrare ce aminteau de importanța clădirii, au dispărut. Au fost furate sau date la... restaurare?\nMai multe investiții au pus în valoare un complex de agrement dar şi plaja cu cel mai fin nisip din Europa. E o zonă fantastică iar apa mării are o adâncime de circa 30 de centimetri pe o lungime de circa 800 de metri. Plaja a fost certificată și la nivel internațional. Alături se află o rezervație, integrată în spațiul turistic. După cum se ştie, Sulina a derulat proiect pilot în parteneriat cu ONU, cu asistenţă din partea PNUD, pentru realizarea unui plan de dezvoltare urbană integrată, ce are deja un efect revigorant asupra activităţilor de turism.\n\nCât despre sejururi mai lungi la Sulina vă stau la dispoziție variante de cazare și de prețuri la circa 38 de pensiuni, vile, hoteluri clasice sau plutitoare, apartamente de închiriat, alte spații de cazare, printre care pensiunea Jean Bart, Vilele Alga și Casa Sibiana, hotelurile Delta Palace și Delta Miraj. Cum am văzut există atracții turistice care individualizează orașul de capătul brațului Sulina. Ar trebui însă mai inspirat ambalate şi scoase la vânzare printr-o promovare de destinație. Asta presupune nu numai bugete consistente ci și minţi mai rapide, care să lanseze proiecte durabile. Nu focuri de artificii.\n\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU','SULINA - In cautarea EUROPOLISULUI, LUMEA IN MISCARE nr. 162-163','','inherit','closed','closed','','6132-autosave-v1','','','2018-02-11 13:46:23','2018-02-11 11:46:23','',6132,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2018/02/11/6132-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6191,1,'2018-02-11 13:46:24','2018-02-11 11:46:24','','Delta doi 379','','inherit','open','closed','','delta-doi-379-2','','','2018-02-11 13:46:24','2018-02-11 11:46:24','',6132,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Delta-doi-379-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6192,1,'2018-02-11 13:46:25','2018-02-11 11:46:25','','Delta doi 396','','inherit','open','closed','','delta-doi-396','','','2018-02-11 13:46:25','2018-02-11 11:46:25','',6132,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Delta-doi-396.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6193,1,'2018-02-11 13:46:25','2018-02-11 11:46:25','','Delta doi 397','','inherit','open','closed','','delta-doi-397','','','2018-02-11 13:46:25','2018-02-11 11:46:25','',6132,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Delta-doi-397.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6194,1,'2018-02-11 13:46:26','2018-02-11 11:46:26','','Delta doi 406','','inherit','open','closed','','delta-doi-406','','','2018-02-11 13:46:26','2018-02-11 11:46:26','',6132,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Delta-doi-406.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6195,1,'2018-02-11 13:46:27','2018-02-11 11:46:27','','Delta doi 411','','inherit','open','closed','','delta-doi-411','','','2018-02-11 13:46:27','2018-02-11 11:46:27','',6132,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Delta-doi-411.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6196,1,'2018-02-11 13:46:27','2018-02-11 11:46:27','','Sulina Cim 88','','inherit','open','closed','','sulina-cim-88','','','2018-02-11 13:46:27','2018-02-11 11:46:27','',6132,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Sulina-Cim-88.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6197,1,'2018-02-11 13:46:28','2018-02-11 11:46:28','','Sulina Cim 186','','inherit','open','closed','','sulina-cim-186','','','2018-02-11 13:46:28','2018-02-11 11:46:28','',6132,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Sulina-Cim-186.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6198,1,'2018-02-11 13:46:29','2018-02-11 11:46:29','','Sulina Cim91','','inherit','open','closed','','sulina-cim91','','','2018-02-11 13:46:29','2018-02-11 11:46:29','',6132,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Sulina-Cim91.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6199,1,'2018-02-11 13:46:29','2018-02-11 11:46:29','','Sulina Cim92','','inherit','open','closed','','sulina-cim92','','','2018-02-11 13:46:29','2018-02-11 11:46:29','',6132,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Sulina-Cim92.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6200,1,'2018-02-11 13:46:30','2018-02-11 11:46:30','','Sulina Far 182','','inherit','open','closed','','sulina-far-182','','','2018-02-11 13:46:30','2018-02-11 11:46:30','',6132,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Sulina-Far-182.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6201,1,'2018-02-11 13:46:31','2018-02-11 11:46:31','','Sulina sediul Comisiei 94','','inherit','open','closed','','sulina-sediul-comisiei-94','','','2018-02-11 13:46:31','2018-02-11 11:46:31','',6132,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Sulina-sediul-Comisiei-94.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6202,1,'2018-02-11 13:46:47','2018-02-11 11:46:47','Așa rămăsese.

Bucureștiul era cunoscut în trecut sub numele de „Micul Paris”, fiind o capitală înfloritoare în timpul domniei regelui Carol, care a adus arhitecți francezi cu misiunea de a oferi orașului un nou tonus. Acum el își formulează un nou stil de viață care se reflectă în modernitatea arhitecturală ce scoate în evidență clădiri clasice.\n\n\nCentrul Vechi, Palatul Parlamentului, concertele organizate la Ateneul Român, Biserica Stavropoleos și librăria Cărturești Carusel se numără printre atracțiile turistice selectate într-un articol publicat pe site-ul postului de televiziune american CNN, dedicat capitalei României. Jurnalista CNN, Marissa Tejada s-a declarat impresionată de arhitectura amețitoare a metropolei, bazată pe combinația fascinantă de stiluri. Între blocurile cu apartamente din era comunistă se află clădiri bizantine, biserici vechi de mai multe secole și reședințe Art Nouveau care ies în evidență ca un fel de supraviețuitori ai cutremurelor, războiului si mutilărilor urbanistice. Palatul Voievodal Curtea Veche, în trecut reședința foștilor prinți valahi, inclusiv al lui Vlad Țepes, care l-a inspirat pe Bram Stoker când a scris romanul „Dracula”, a avut întotdeauna legături cu regalitatea. Palatul Parlamentului, acest colos arhitectural a stabilit mai multe recorduri, fiind desemnat cea mai grea clădire din lume, cea mai mare clădire din Europa și a doua cea mai mare clădire administrativă din lume (dupa Pentagon).\n\nBUCUREȘTI: George Enescu aduce 5 milioane de euro. O mai bună și diversificată promovare a Festivalului Internațional George Enescu, ar putea să marcheze, din doi în doi ani, un veritabil boom pentru turismul cultural din România. Când se desfășoară acest eveniment cultural unic ( recenta ediție s-a consumat între 2 și 24 septembrie) industria hotelieră românească resimte un impact financiar pozitiv. Astfel, conform evaluărilor lui Călin Ile, președintele Federației Industriei Hoteliere din România (FIHR), încasează zilnic, numai din cazări circa 80.000 de euro, respectiv 2,4 milioane de euro pe tot parcursul evenimentului. Însă, conform aceleași surse, un turist cheltuiește zilnic pe masă și diverse cumpărături în București aproape tot atât cât pe cazare. Practic, Capitala României câștigă de pe urma turiștilor veniți special pentru festival în jur de 5 milioane de euro în aproape o lună de spectacole.\n\nParticipanții, artiști, soliștii, impresarii, organizatorii, jurnaliștii dar și turiștii veniți pentru acest eveniment au închiriat pe parcursul festivalului aproximativ 30.000 de camere de hotel. În principal au fost căutate unitățile de 4-5 stele din zona centrală, unde se cazează artiștii. Multe dintre hoteluri aveau cu o lună înainte de începerea Festivalului un grad asigurat de ocupare pentru septembrie de 80%. Cererea globala generată de Festivalul internațional George Enescu a asigurat în aceeași perioadă plus al gradului de ocupare de circa 10% pentru hotelurile din Bucuresti - a mai precizat liderul FIHR.\n\nSIBIU:Turism responsabil și sustenabil.\n ”Valorile culturale, diversitate și patrimoniu: piloni ai turismului durabil pentru dezvoltare” a fost tematica pe care s-au concentrat participanții la Conferinţa Internațională pentru Turism Cultural din Europa.

Manifestarea a făcut parte din agenda oficială a evenimentelor ce susţin aria de interes „Valori culturale, Diversitate şi Patrimoniu” a Anului Internaţional al Turismului Sustenabil pentru Dezvoltare 2017/ IY 2017.\n\nPrintre invitați s-au numărat partenerii Asociaţiei Judeţene de Turism Sibiu din proiect, din regiuni ale Europei preocupate de îndeplinirea obiectivelor Europa 2020: Organizaţia regională de turism Pafos (Cipru), Regiunea Veneto (Italia), Regiunea Centrul Macedoniei (Grecia), Regiunea Västra Götaland (Suedia), Consiliul Provinciei Granada (Spania), Asociaţia de turism Vidzeme (Letonia), Municipalitatea Burgas (Bulgaria), Comunitatea Intermunicipală a regiunii Ave (Portugalia). Au fost prezenţi experți în planificare strategică şi marketing, autorități publice din aria de expertiză a dezvoltării responsabile, profesionişti din organizaţii de turism, cadre universitare şi cercetători din 15 ţări.

Lucrările urmează să fie încheiate în 2019. Proiectul prevede și amenajarea, în spațiile monumentului, a unei expoziții moderne în care să predomine informația digitizată, holograme, alte suporturi de informare. Valoarea totală a proiectului se ridică la aproximativ 19,3 milioane lei, din care aproximativ 16,4 milioane reprezintă finanțare externă nerambursabilă, iar aproape 2,9 milioane de lei constituie valoarea cofinanțării eligibile asigurată de MApN.\n\nPentru a realiza restaurarea monumentului, Ministerul a încheiat un protocol de colaborare cu Institutul Național al Patrimoniului. Monumentul Eroilor Crucea Caraiman se află la o altitudine de 2.291 metri și are o înălțime totala de 39,3 metri și o deschidere a brațelor orizontale de aproximativ 15 metri. În 2013, crucea a fost declarată cea mai înaltă de acest gen din lume amplasată pe un vârf montan, și a fost inclusă în Guiness Book of Records.\n\nA ȘAPTEA EDIȚIE A FESTIVALULUI TULCEI a fost un succes.\nRowmaniaFEST - Festivalul Internațional al Bărcilor cu Vâsle, a fost inițiat de Asociația Ivan Patzaichin – Mila 23 împreună cu Primăria Municipiului Tulcea și Consiliul Județean Tulcea.

Clasamentul a fost alcătuit de către Asociația Cele mai frumoase sate din Romania (AFSR). Programul cultural lansat în 2014 sub patronajul Ambasadei Franței în România și a Delegației Valonia – Bruxelles are drept obiectiv promovarea patrimoniul cultural și turistic ale satelor românești. La actuala ediție au participat 41 de comune din România. (ALEX BARBU)\n\nEste ROMÂNIA cea mai frumoasă ȚARĂ ?\n Potențialul turistic al României a fost evidențiat într-un articol publicat în septembrie pe site-ul The Huffington Post. În acesta se afirmă că țara noastră ar putea fi considerată „cea mai frumoasă din Europa”. Patti Morrow, fotograf și jurnalist specializat în călătorii, a fost impresionată, printre altele, de Transfăgărășan, arhitectura cosmopolită din București, bisericile fortificate din Transilvania și de castelele Bran și Peleș. În articolul intitulat „Is Romania Europe`s Prettiest Country? It Just Might Be” („Este România cea mai frumoasă țară a Europei? Chiar ar putea fi”), Patti Morrow abordează câteva obiective turistice ale țării: „piețe din orașe încântătoare ce datează din timpuri medievale, dealuri cu pante blânde care se întind cât vezi cu ochii, castele învelite în misterul Contelui Dracula, perspective minunate asupra culmilor stâncoase ale munților și o rețea ce pare infinită de fortarețe și biserici.(...) Patti Morrow a grupat obiectivele turistice în trei categorii principale: „Orașe, cetăți și sate\", \"Castele, fortărețe și biserici fortificate\", respectiv \"Alte atracții\". După documentarea sa în România, Patti Morrow spune că țara noastră - și în special Transilvania - este locul în care se afla „unele dintre cele mai bine conservate orașe medievale din Europa”.\n\n”EUROPA ÎN MIȘCARE”. A fost tematica unui pachet de dezbateri deschise, organizate la București de către Uniunea Națională a Transportatorilor Rutieri din România – UNTRR. Evenimentul l-a avut ca invitat pe reprezentantul Comisiei Europene – Eddy Liegeois, Șef de Unitate Transport Rutier DG MOVE. Dezbaterea pachetului rutier cu CE s-a dovedit a fi extrem de necesară în acest moment când transportatorii rutieri români așteaptă măsuri urgente din partea Comisiei Europene pentru stoparea legilor naționale protecționiste din Vestul UE și aplicarea unitară a legislației UE în scopul realizării pieței unice a transporturilor. Pachetul rutier al CE cuprinde un amplu set de iniţiative legislative cu impact major asupra viitorului transportatorilor români în UE.

De la primele noastre interacțiuni cu chefi bucătari de street-food am descoperit dorința acestora de a se dezvolta, de a-și pune în evidență creativitatea și cel mai important de a oferi publicului cât mai multe experiențe inedite” a declarat Călin Câmpean, președintele Asociației Street Food Revolution și Comercial Manager al Street Food Festival.\n\nA FOST LANSATĂ CARAVANA SMART CITY.\n În ultima decadă a lunii septembrie a pornit la drum Caravana Smart City. Inițiat de Asociația Românã pentru Smart City și Mobilitate (ARSCM), aflat sub Înaltul Patronaj al Ministerului Energiei. Acesta este cel mai amplu program de promovare a industriei Smart City din România. Cu acest prilej, Președintele ARSCM, domnul Eduard Dumitrașcu a lansat Strategia Naționalã pentru Dezvoltarea Orașelor Creativ-Inteligente. În cadrul acesteia, Președintele ARSCM a evidențiat implementarea standardelor ISO pentru Smart City, lansarea Apelului de Proiecte și Ghidului de Achiziții Publice – ambele documente dedicate administrației centrale și locale, alãturi de inițierea de cãtre grupurile de experți naționali și internaționali ai ARSCM privind auditul smart city. (C. MARIAN)\n\nSTAȚIUNILE DE PE LITORAL AR TREBUI ADMINISTRATE de o companie formată pe modelul stațiunilor franceze. Aceasta ar trebui să aibă la bază un parteneriat public-privat, cred reprezentanții patronatelor din turismul românesc. \"Toate stațiunile turistice se pot autofinanța din taxele și impozitele pe care le plătește mediul privat\" - a apreciat Mohammad Murad, președintele Federației Patronatelor din Turismul Românesc (FPTR). În urma unor analize a reieșit că aceasta ar fi cea mai bună soluție pentru eficientizarea activităților și administrarea stațiunilor. ”O astfel de entitate, care ar reprezenta 40% din capacitatea de cazare a țării noastre, ar putea stopa și criza forței de muncă cu care se confruntă turismul litoral în mod special, caracterul sezonier al activității adâncind această criză” - a declarat Dragoş Raducan, primVicepreședinte Executiv al FPTR.

Bucureștiul era cunoscut în trecut sub numele de „Micul Paris”, fiind o capitală înfloritoare în timpul domniei regelui Carol, care a adus arhitecți francezi cu misiunea de a oferi orașului un nou tonus. Acum el își formulează un nou stil de viață care se reflectă în modernitatea arhitecturală ce scoate în evidență clădiri clasice.\r\n\r\n\r\nCentrul Vechi, Palatul Parlamentului, concertele organizate la Ateneul Român, Biserica Stavropoleos și librăria Cărturești Carusel se numără printre atracțiile turistice selectate într-un articol publicat pe site-ul postului de televiziune american CNN, dedicat capitalei României. Jurnalista CNN, Marissa Tejada s-a declarat impresionată de arhitectura amețitoare a metropolei, bazată pe combinația fascinantă de stiluri. Între blocurile cu apartamente din era comunistă se află clădiri bizantine, biserici vechi de mai multe secole și reședințe Art Nouveau care ies în evidență ca un fel de supraviețuitori ai cutremurelor, războiului si mutilărilor urbanistice. Palatul Voievodal Curtea Veche, în trecut reședința foștilor prinți valahi, inclusiv al lui Vlad Țepes, care l-a inspirat pe Bram Stoker când a scris romanul „Dracula”, a avut întotdeauna legături cu regalitatea. Palatul Parlamentului, acest colos arhitectural a stabilit mai multe recorduri, fiind desemnat cea mai grea clădire din lume, cea mai mare clădire din Europa și a doua cea mai mare clădire administrativă din lume (dupa Pentagon).\r\n\r\nBUCUREȘTI: George Enescu aduce 5 milioane de euro. O mai bună și diversificată promovare a Festivalului Internațional George Enescu, ar putea să marcheze, din doi în doi ani, un veritabil boom pentru turismul cultural din România. Când se desfășoară acest eveniment cultural unic ( recenta ediție s-a consumat între 2 și 24 septembrie) industria hotelieră românească resimte un impact financiar pozitiv. Astfel, conform evaluărilor lui Călin Ile, președintele Federației Industriei Hoteliere din România (FIHR), încasează zilnic, numai din cazări circa 80.000 de euro, respectiv 2,4 milioane de euro pe tot parcursul evenimentului. Însă, conform aceleași surse, un turist cheltuiește zilnic pe masă și diverse cumpărături în București aproape tot atât cât pe cazare. Practic, Capitala României câștigă de pe urma turiștilor veniți special pentru festival în jur de 5 milioane de euro în aproape o lună de spectacole.\r\n\r\nParticipanții, artiști, soliștii, impresarii, organizatorii, jurnaliștii dar și turiștii veniți pentru acest eveniment au închiriat pe parcursul festivalului aproximativ 30.000 de camere de hotel. În principal au fost căutate unitățile de 4-5 stele din zona centrală, unde se cazează artiștii. Multe dintre hoteluri aveau cu o lună înainte de începerea Festivalului un grad asigurat de ocupare pentru septembrie de 80%. Cererea globala generată de Festivalul internațional George Enescu a asigurat în aceeași perioadă plus al gradului de ocupare de circa 10% pentru hotelurile din Bucuresti - a mai precizat liderul FIHR.\r\n\r\nSIBIU:Turism responsabil și sustenabil.\r\n ”Valorile culturale, diversitate și patrimoniu: piloni ai turismului durabil pentru dezvoltare” a fost tematica pe care s-au concentrat participanții la Conferinţa Internațională pentru Turism Cultural din Europa.

Lucrările urmează să fie încheiate în 2019. Proiectul prevede și amenajarea, în spațiile monumentului, a unei expoziții moderne în care să predomine informația digitizată, holograme, alte suporturi de informare. Valoarea totală a proiectului se ridică la aproximativ 19,3 milioane lei, din care aproximativ 16,4 milioane reprezintă finanțare externă nerambursabilă, iar aproape 2,9 milioane de lei constituie valoarea cofinanțării eligibile asigurată de MApN.\r\n\r\nPentru a realiza restaurarea monumentului, Ministerul a încheiat un protocol de colaborare cu Institutul Național al Patrimoniului. Monumentul Eroilor Crucea Caraiman se află la o altitudine de 2.291 metri și are o înălțime totala de 39,3 metri și o deschidere a brațelor orizontale de aproximativ 15 metri. În 2013, crucea a fost declarată cea mai înaltă de acest gen din lume amplasată pe un vârf montan, și a fost inclusă în Guiness Book of Records.\r\n\r\nA ȘAPTEA EDIȚIE A FESTIVALULUI TULCEI a fost un succes.\r\nRowmaniaFEST - Festivalul Internațional al Bărcilor cu Vâsle, a fost inițiat de Asociația Ivan Patzaichin – Mila 23 împreună cu Primăria Municipiului Tulcea și Consiliul Județean Tulcea.

(ALEX BARBU)\r\n\r\nEste ROMÂNIA cea mai frumoasă ȚARĂ ?\r\n Potențialul turistic al României a fost evidențiat într-un articol publicat în septembrie pe site-ul The Huffington Post. În acesta se afirmă că țara noastră ar putea fi considerată „cea mai frumoasă din Europa”. Patti Morrow, fotograf și jurnalist specializat în călătorii, a fost impresionată, printre altele, de Transfăgărășan, arhitectura cosmopolită din București, bisericile fortificate din Transilvania și de castelele Bran și Peleș. În articolul intitulat „Is Romania Europe`s Prettiest Country? It Just Might Be” („Este România cea mai frumoasă țară a Europei? Chiar ar putea fi”), Patti Morrow abordează câteva obiective turistice ale țării: „piețe din orașe încântătoare ce datează din timpuri medievale, dealuri cu pante blânde care se întind cât vezi cu ochii, castele învelite în misterul Contelui Dracula, perspective minunate asupra culmilor stâncoase ale munților și o rețea ce pare infinită de fortarețe și biserici.(...) Patti Morrow a grupat obiectivele turistice în trei categorii principale: „Orașe, cetăți și sate\", \"Castele, fortărețe și biserici fortificate\", respectiv \"Alte atracții\". După documentarea sa în România, Patti Morrow spune că țara noastră - și în special Transilvania - este locul în care se afla „unele dintre cele mai bine conservate orașe medievale din Europa”.\r\n\r\n”EUROPA ÎN MIȘCARE”. A fost tematica unui pachet de dezbateri deschise, organizate la București de către Uniunea Națională a Transportatorilor Rutieri din România – UNTRR. Evenimentul l-a avut ca invitat pe reprezentantul Comisiei Europene – Eddy Liegeois, Șef de Unitate Transport Rutier DG MOVE. Dezbaterea pachetului rutier cu CE s-a dovedit a fi extrem de necesară în acest moment când transportatorii rutieri români așteaptă măsuri urgente din partea Comisiei Europene pentru stoparea legilor naționale protecționiste din Vestul UE și aplicarea unitară a legislației UE în scopul realizării pieței unice a transporturilor. Pachetul rutier al CE cuprinde un amplu set de iniţiative legislative cu impact major asupra viitorului transportatorilor români în UE.

Between the dreary Communist-era apartment blocks are Byzantine buildings, centuries\' old churches and Art Nouveau mansions that stand out as the survivors of earthquakes, war and communism. Look more closely at one of the most promising capitals in the European Union and further charms will be revealed (…) There are pristine city parks, excellent museums and gritty yet charming lanes that weave through the Old Town.

Between the dreary Communist-era apartment blocks are Byzantine buildings, centuries\' old churches and Art Nouveau mansions that stand out as the survivors of earthquakes, war and communism. Look more closely at one of the most promising capitals in the European Union and further charms will be revealed (…) There are pristine city parks, excellent museums and gritty yet charming lanes that weave through the Old Town. Once the palatial residence of Wallachian princes, including Vlad Tepes, otherwise known as Vlad the Impaler who inspired Bram Stoker\'s tale of Dracula, the Old Princely Court has always had royal connections.”\r\n\r\nMASTERCARD - TOP 44 hidden treasures of Europe\r\n\r\nIn order to facilitate unforgettable holiday experiences Mastercard publishes on a yearly basis the TOP 44 hidden treasures of Europe. Romania is nomineed on 14 with the Danube Delta. The first position is held by Asturias, a region in northern Spain with accesible prices and a spectacular sight as the Covadonga monastery. Next is the medieval city of Zebugg in Malta, followed by the Salzkammergut area in Austria, praised for the Hallstatt Lake. This unique list of recommendations is based on the research of Mastercard on the spendings of the users of the card. It is a usefull tool to compare the attractivity of the destinations accordind to the offer of sights , costs and confort offered\" said Adam Blake, the prsident of the Travel Research Centre of the Bournemouth University.\r\n\r\nCLUJ NAPOCA has the 1st Street Food\r\n\r\n”Street Food Revolution” is the name of the 1st Street Food Association in Romania.

Numele evocă vampiri, vârcolaci și păduri fermecate.

Trebuie să recunosc că fundația solidă a proiectului, este formată din operatorii locali care se implică în procesul de formare profesională. La Brașov avem parteneri de încredere. Motto-ul acestui proiect este inspirat de James Keller: ”O lumânare nu îşi pierde nimic din strălucire atunci când aprinde o altă lumânare”.

Pornind de la o singură aeronavă și 35 de angajați în decembrie 2004, Blue Air a ajuns la 29 de aeronave și aproape 1.500 angajați, reușind performanța de a transporta pe cele peste 100 de rute europene 21 de milioane de pasageri, mai mult ca întreaga populație a României.\r\n\r\n\r\n\"Succesul Blue Air pe plan local și european este meritul întregii echipe, căreia îi mulțumesc pentru efortul, pasiunea, expertiza și energia investite. Meritul dezvoltării Blue Air este și al pasagerilor noștri, cărora le mulțumim pentru încrederea acordată. Vom continua și în 2018 dezvoltarea companiei cu noi aeronave, noi servicii și metode de plată. Blue Air are mixul câștigător între viziune, o echipă profesionistă și pasageri loiali. De aceea, a investit cu încredere în dezvoltarea flotei, a mai lansat 34 de noi rute și a inaugurat în acest an 3 baze operaționale, la Constanța, Liverpool și Alghero. Membră IATA - ce reunește 260 de companii aeriene din peste 119 țări - compania Blue Air își va păstra aceeași creștere dinamică și în 2018. Pentru 2017 am estimat o cifră de afaceri de 400 milioane euro şi aproximativ 5 milioane de pasageri transportaţi, indicatori în creştere cu peste 35% față de 2016\" - a declarat cu prilejul aniversării Gheorghe Răcaru, Director General Blue Air.\r\n\r\nALBA IULIA - premiu IRU\r\nMunicipiul Alba Iulia a câștigat prestigiosul premiu internațional “Trofeul Orașului IRU 2017” , acordat de către de un juriu compus din reprezentanți importanți ai autorităților locale din întreaga lume, ai industriei turistice globale și ai transportului rutier profesionist. Acest eveniment a fost promovat de Uniunea Națională a Transportatorilor Rutieri din România – (UNTRR), membră activă a Uniunii Internaționale a Transporturilor Rutiere – IRU. Radu DINESCU, Secretar General UNTRR, a declarat: „Suntem deosebit de onorați că Municipiul Alba Iulia a acceptat invitația Uniunii de a candida la această competiție internațională, parte a campaniei globale pentru mobilitate inteligentă Smart Move. Felicităm Alba Iulia, primul oraș românesc câștigător al prestigiosului premiu internațional IRU Trofeul Orașului, care prin recunoașterea sa la nivel internațional ca destinație de excelență pentru turismul cu autocarul contribuie la promovarea imaginii României în lume.” Municipiul Alba Iulia, a cărui candidatură a fost susținută de UNTRR, a impresionat juriul internațional IRU Smart Move prin proiectul să inovator “Alba Iulia – Smart City 2018 pentru o mobilitate inteligentă”, demonstrând o abordare colaborativă și integrată a mobilității și acordând o atenție deosebită turismului de grup cu autocarul în planificarea mobilității”. Mircea Hava, Primarul orașului Alba Iulia, a declarat la rândul său că: ” Alba Iulia se angajează să devină o destinație turistică de excelență. Facilitarea accesului autocarelor turistice în orașul nostru și crearea unui mediu primitor pentru vizitatorii care vin cu autocarul este o componentă importantă a acestei ambiții. Noul premiu ne confirmă că mergem în cea mai bună direcție. “\r\n\r\n\r\nCIOCĂNEȘTI - cum se vede din Lonely Planet ?\r\nSatul Ciocănești (județul Suceava), cunoscut ca ”Muzeul tradițiilor vii”, unde toate casele sunt decorate cu motive tradiționale, a fost inclus în Topul celor mai colorate 10 destinații europene realizat de Lonely Planet, una dintre cele mai importante edituri de ghiduri de călătorie din lume. „Munții Carpați. Numele evocă vampiri, vârcolaci și păduri fermecate. Totuși, în regiunea istorică Bucovina, Ciocănești distruge clișeele infricoșătoare: până la urmă, ce ar putea fi mai puțin înspăimântător decât un sat întreg pictat asemenea ouălelor de Paște?”, afirmă autoarea ghidului, Tamara Sheward.\r\n\r\n\r\nDecorarea acestora este o tradiție veche de secole în Bucovina, însă abia în 1950 localnicii din Ciocănești au început să-și decoreze casele cu desene elaborate, asemănătoare celor de pe ouă. Desenele de pe case au fost atât de apreciate de vizitatori încât, în 2004, autoritățile locale au hotărât ca exteriorul fiecărei case nou-construite sau renovate să fie decorat cu motive populare.\r\n\r\nSTAFYLAKIS: GRECIA PANORAMA, festivalul vacanțelor\r\nPachete lansate de agenții de turism românești și elene.

Un eveniment special pentru public, la ”Roata Norocului”, printre alte premii au fost oferiți 1.000 de... măslini. Toate au încântat spectatorii și vizitatorii aflați pentru prima dată în fața GRECIA PANORAMA. Expoziția, găzduită între 20 și 21 ianuarie de MALL ParkLake, unul dintre cele mai mari centre comerciale din București, a fost dedicată în special sectorului turistic. Decizia organizării primei ediții a evenimentului a fost determinată de evoluția fluxului de călători români în Grecia care a depășit în 2016 numărul de 1 milion. Mai exact, conform datelor Băncii Greciei, 1.026.000 de vizitatori! S-a înregistrat o creștere de 99,8% față de anul 2015, când au fost inregistrați 540.289 de români - a declarat Georgios Stafylakis, directorul Biroului de la București al Organizației Naționale de Turism a Greciei. Conform estimărilor sectorului de afaceri și ale ANAT, Grecia a fost destinația turistică preferată a românilor. Durata medie de ședere în 2016 a fost de 6,7 zile, comparativ cu 7,6 în 2015, în timp ce costul mediu este estimat la 381,3 Euro/ călătorie.\r\n\r\n\r\nPrintre cei care au patronat GRECIA PANORAMA se numără alături de GNTO, Ambasada Greciei, Biroul Camerei de Comerț Eleno-Române și organizații și asociații elene de turism printre care SETE, fedHATTA, ΠΟΞ, ΞΕE.\r\n\r\nM.CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n#WANDERLUST - călătorie prin fotografie\r\nMaria Nicolau, autoarea blogului de travel MyExoticDream.net a avut prima sa expoziție de fotografie, intitulata sugestiv #Wanderlust. Ea a reunit aproape 1000 de fotografii. A fost găzduită de una dintre cele mai noi și mai frumoase locații din București, Qreator by IQOS și susținută de Traveller Magazin, unul dintre Sponsorii media.\r\n\r\n\r\nEvenimentul a transpus experiențele bloggerului din India, Bali și Bahamas într-un concept creativ care a îmbinat arta fotografică și comunicarea în social media. Împărțită în trei zone de comunicare, imaginile expuse au fost instantanee ale vieții spirituale din destinațiile exotice vizitate. ”Prin întregul concept de #Wanderlust am încercat să le trezesc și celorlalți pofta de a trăi experiențe interesante și dorința arzătoare de a descoperi frumusețea și complexitatea lumii. Cred cu tărie că o călătorie exotică poate fi cu adevărat profundă și relevantă pentru viața noastră”, spune autoarea. La vernisaj au participat pasionați de călătorii în locuri exotice și iubitori ai culturii indiene. Maria Nicolau a împărtășit cu cei prezenți poveștile și experiențele deosebite trăite. Cei prezenți la vernisajul din decembrie 2017 s-a bucurat de momentele unice oferite de invitații speciali ai Mariei Nicolau: Maestra Mahuya Mukherjee, Avdhut Kasinadhuni și Kalavati au susținut secvențe de muzică indiană clasică în stilul Hindustani.\r\n\r\nANGELA SIMION\r\n\r\nBRAȘOVUL are COOL ACADEMY\r\nSpațiul turistic brașovean s-a diversificat și mai mult prin lansarea și dezvoltarea proiectului de formare profesională duală în ospitalitate, Cool Academy. La Hotelul Kolping de la poalele Tâmpei, unul dintre inițiatorii conceptului, el a fost prezentat noilor parteneri de practică din mediul privat brașovean. Pentru anul școlar 2018/2019 s-au înscris în proiectul de formare profesională duală, circa 20 de unități ce vor forma peste 70 de tineri bucătari, ospătari, lucrători hotelieri etc.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\"Lipsa de resurse calificate în industria ospitalității este o problemă majoră. Numai printr-o formare continuă vom depăși această situație. Trebuie să recunosc că fundația solidă a proiectului, este formată din operatorii locali care se implică în procesul de formare profesională. La Brașov avem parteneri de încredere. Motto-ul acestui proiect este inspirat de James Keller: ”O lumânare nu îşi pierde nimic din strălucire atunci când aprinde o altă lumânare”. Mă bucur că avem o rezonanță atât pe plan național cât și, prin camerele de comerț ale Germaniei și Austriei în România, pe plan internațional. Cool Academy reprezintă o premieră. Brașovul a fost pionier și în cadrul învățământului dual din domeniul tehnic prin Școala Profesională Germană Kronstadt, din a cărei experiență au învățat și fondatorii Cool Academy” - a declarat consilierul local Cristian Macedonschi.

Ce aduce ca plus valoare această alianță? Mai multe explicații au fost oferite de către Dragoș Anastasiu, președintele grupului de firme românești:”Majoritatea autocarelor Eurolines vor fi rebranduite sub sigla Flixbus, urmând ca unele curse, de exemplu cele spre Republica Moldova, să rămână sub brandul Eurolines.

Biletele pentru rețeaua FlixBus sunt disponibile în 1400 de puncte de vânzare aparținând Eurolines România. Modelul de afaceri FlixBus combină ‘Best of two worlds (Ce e mai bun în cele două lumi)’ – focus pe digitalizare și calitatea partenerilor IMM locali. Ce ne lipsea – şi am simţit nevoia acestui parteneriat – este tehnologia nouă, pe care autocarele FlixBus o deține. Fără tehnologie nu mai faci faţă.

Theodora Golf Club este o atracție unică în țară și în lume, ce se remarcă prin atenția la detalii, oferind o experință de relaxare complexă” declara Ioan Popa, președintele Theodora Golf Club. Terenul de golf va fi deschis jucătorilor în primăvară. El se desfășoară pe o suprafață de 56 hectare, pe care se află cele 18 parcursuri, fiind cel mai mare teren de golf din țara noastră. O premieră este reprezentată de faptul că terenul de golf va avea cel mai lung parcurs din Europa– PAR 6, de 735 de metri. În plus aici va funcțional și o Academie de golf dedicată copiilor. Theodora Golf Club este situat la maximum 10 minute cu mașina față de Alba Iulia, distanța față de aeroportul din Cluj sau cel din Sibiu fiind între 1 și 2 ore.\r\n\r\nANGELA SIMION\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n ','NEED TOUR - noi ferestre de vacanta, TRAVEL nr. 164-166','','publish','open','open','','need-tour-noi-ferestre-de-vacanta-travel-nr-164-166','','','2018-08-14 12:03:50','2018-08-14 10:03:50','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=6312',0,'post','',0),(6313,1,'2018-08-14 11:41:10','2018-08-14 09:41:10','','Need-Tour Mihaela Craciun','','inherit','open','closed','','need-tour-mihaela-craciun','','','2018-08-14 11:41:10','2018-08-14 09:41:10','',6312,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/Need-Tour-Mihaela-Craciun.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6314,1,'2018-08-14 11:43:25','2018-08-14 09:43:25','','Mos Craciun 2','','inherit','open','closed','','mos-craciun-2','','','2018-08-14 11:43:25','2018-08-14 09:43:25','',6312,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/Mos-Craciun-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6315,1,'2018-08-14 11:45:46','2018-08-14 09:45:46','','Mastercard 1','','inherit','open','closed','','mastercard-1','','','2018-08-14 11:45:46','2018-08-14 09:45:46','',6312,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/Mastercard-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6316,1,'2018-08-14 11:46:22','2018-08-14 09:46:22','','Mastercard 1','','inherit','open','closed','','mastercard-1-2','','','2018-08-14 11:46:22','2018-08-14 09:46:22','',6312,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/Mastercard-1-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6317,1,'2018-08-14 11:48:23','2018-08-14 09:48:23','','Travel Flixbus 1800','','inherit','open','closed','','travel-flixbus-1800','','','2018-08-14 11:48:23','2018-08-14 09:48:23','',6312,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/Travel-Flixbus-1800.rtf',0,'attachment','application/rtf',0),(6318,1,'2018-08-14 11:48:59','2018-08-14 09:48:59','','OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA','OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA','inherit','open','closed','','olympus-digital-camera-65','','','2018-08-14 11:48:59','2018-08-14 09:48:59','',6312,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/flix-bus-2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6319,1,'2018-08-14 11:51:56','2018-08-14 09:51:56','','Theodora Golf Club. jpg (1)','','inherit','open','closed','','theodora-golf-club-jpg-1','','','2018-08-14 11:51:56','2018-08-14 09:51:56','',6312,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/Theodora-Golf-Club.-jpg-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6320,1,'2018-08-14 11:53:30','2018-08-14 09:53:30','Numărul operatorilor de turism care vindeau pachete pe destinațiile de vacanță din Antalya a scăzut în România ultimilor zece ani. Falimente sau exituri, explicabile mai ales prin criza și atentatele teroriste, au determinat o scădere a circulației români spre stațiunile estivale turcești de la Mările Mediterană și Egee. Acum o parte importantă dintre operatorii turci sunt de părere că piața turistică românească s-a schimbat și trebuie abordată într-o altă perspectivă de business.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nÎn plus, prin creșterea puterii de cumpărare românii au un potențial mai mare de a pleca în vacanțe. Acest aspect a fost luat în calcul recent de către Need Tour, tour operator cu renume în Turcia ce s-a lansat la jumătatea lunii decembrie, la Poiana Brașov, în prezența a 300 de parteneri și invitați. În acest scop a fost înființată Need Tour România ce își propune să ducă experiența călătoriei la un alt nivel, cu expertiza unei echipe de profesioniști cu peste 10 ani de experiență în turismul din zona balcanică - a anunțat Aytac Acikgoz, co-fondator Need Tour România. La rândul ei Mihaela Crăciun, General Manager al agenției, a subliniat că: ” În Antalya avem un parteneriat direct, extrem de valoros și solid cu hotelurile. Pentru 2018, credem că destinația preferată a românilor va fi Belek, care oferă condiții excepționale pe segmentele luxury dar și family.” Compania estimează că, în 2018, peste 12.000 de clienți vor ajunge în Turcia prin patru curse charter, ce vor decola săptămânal din București, Cluj, Oradea și Suceava, și peste 3.000 cu pachete individuale spre Antalya, Kusadasi, Bodrum și Marmaris.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n„Moş Crăciun” are numai 24 de ani\r\n\r\nMoșule ce tânăr ești! Dacă nu știați în Bucureşti există Agenţia Moş Crăciun, care se ocupă să facă sărbătorile în mijlocul cărora ne aflăm cât mai frumoase. Ea a dezvoltat, în cei 24 ani de activitate, pachete complexe de servicii oferind Moşi Crăciuni, Spiriduşi şi Crăciuniţe pentru firme sau clienți individuali. Printre acestea se numără ”Moş Crăciun la tine acasă”, ”Moş Crăciun corporate”, ”Moş Crăciun profesionist”, care îi va lăuda pe cei merituoşi, ”Moş Crăciun animator” – pentru magazine, restaurante, baruri etc.!, ”Moş Crăciun promoter!”, om de afaceri sau curier. Partenerii dumneavoastră de afaceri pot primi cadourile speciale pe care le-aţi pregătit direct de la Moş Crăciun. În final, probabil că ne veţi întreba dacă Moş Crăciun nu are şi o parteneră. Fireşte că da, există Crăciuniţele! În oricare dintre variante, Moş Crăciun poate fi însoţit sau înlocuit de Crăciuniţe.\r\n\r\n“De-a lungul anilor, mii de copii s-au bucurat de serviciile Agenţiei noastre, de la evenimente cu 200-250 de copii, până la întâlniri personalizate cu 1-2 copii. În fiecare an ne-am implicat şi în evenimente caritabile pentru copii defavorizaţi, orfani sau din familii cu probleme. Putem organiza de la zero, pentru firme şi grupuri, inclusiv petrecerile de sfârșit de an, având o serie de locaţii de top. Agenţia Moş Crăciun e marcă înregistrată încă din 1993 şi deţine Certificatul Marcii 48746 eliberat de OSIM - ne-a precizat Dan Anghelescu, Moş Crăciun Şef. Alte amănunte aflați pe www.agentiamoscraciun.ro\r\n\r\nMASTERCARD - Unde sunt ascunse 44 de comori?\r\n\r\nMastercard a publicat un Top cu 44 de comori ascunse ale Europei, evidenţiind destinaţii impresionante mai puţin cunoscute, dar accesibile tuturor. România este reprezentată în acest an, pe poziția 14, de Delta Dunării. Primul loc este deţinut de Asturias, o regiune din nordul Spaniei, care împreună cu priveliştile extraordinare ale mănăstirii Covadonga reprezintă o destinaţie de vis. Pe locul doi al clasamentului este situat oraşul medieval Zebugg din Malta, iar podiumul este completat de regiunea Salzkammergut din Austria. Din Top mai fac parte, conform evaluărilor experților din domeniul turismului, destinații ca Insulele Azore (Portugalia), Pag (Croația), Saaremaa (Estonia), Regiunea Volos și Pelion (Grecia), Velika Planina (Slovenia), Cape Kolka (Letonia), Parcul Național Balaton-Uplands (Ungaria) etc. \"Expertiza Mastercard a stat la baza realizării listei de recomandări.\r\n\r\nAceste informaţii, împreună cu evaluările localnicilor fac din acest ghid unul extrem de util. Clasamentul a fost realizat de Mastercard cu scopul de a ajuta consumatorii să îşi planifice călătoriile şi să aleagă destinaţiile ce merită a fi descoperite” - a subliniat Javier Perez, Preşedinte pe Europa în cadrul Mastercard.\r\n\r\nMARA ANTON\r\n\r\nEUROLINES - parteneriat de afaceri\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nDupă ce TUI TravelCenter, membru al grupului Eurolines România, a stabilit în ultimii doi ani parteneriate pe segmentul de travel cu Lidl și Selgros Cash&Carry Romania, lansând concepte comune de vânzări Eurolines a anunțat în septembrie o nouă colaborare pe segmentul de transport cu liderul european FlixBus. Ce aduce ca plus valoare această alianță? Mai multe explicații au fost oferite de către Dragoș Anastasiu, președintele grupului de firme românești:”Majoritatea autocarelor Eurolines vor fi rebranduite sub sigla Flixbus, urmând ca unele curse, de exemplu cele spre Republica Moldova, să rămână sub brandul Eurolines. Aducem Europa mai aproape împreună: Acces facil la cea mai extinsă rețea europeană de transport cu autocarul, constând în 200.000 de conexiuni zilnice către 1.200 destinații din 26 de țări. Biletele pentru rețeaua FlixBus sunt disponibile în 1400 de puncte de vânzare aparținând Eurolines România. Modelul de afaceri FlixBus combină ‘Best of two worlds (Ce e mai bun în cele două lumi)’ – focus pe digitalizare și calitatea partenerilor IMM locali. Ce ne lipsea – şi am simţit nevoia acestui parteneriat – este tehnologia nouă, pe care autocarele FlixBus o deține. Fără tehnologie nu mai faci faţă. Sperăm ca prin această deschidere, cu peste 1.000 de oraşe noi, în combinaţie, putem până la sfârşitul anului viitor chiar să dublăm cifra, de la aproape 150.000 pasageri transportaţi anul acesta”, a declarat liderul Eurolines România, Dragoş Anastasiu.\r\n\r\nLa rândul său, Nikolai Voitiouk, vicepreşedinte Business Eastern Europe al FlixBus, a subliniat că această colaborare este ”un pas important pentru companie în conectarea oraşelelor importante ale României cu cele 26 de ţări europene din portofoliu˝. El a mai anunțat că în acest scop a fost deschis un birou de reprezentare și la București.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU\r\n\r\nCel mai mare resort de golf din România\r\n\r\nE clar. Județul Alba are un apetit special pentru terenurile de golf. El a fost stimulat de Paul Tomiță, primul jucător profesionist pe care l-a avut țara noastră, o figură legendară care s-a născut în această zonă căruia i-a dăruit primul teren de golf, semiprofesionist.\r\n\r\n\r\nLa sfârșitul anului trecut a fost inaugurat în localitatea Teleac, comuna Ciugud din același județ Theodora Golf Club, cel mai modern resort de golf din România.

Parțial, probabil, așa a fost. Dar cealaltă parte de adevăr, aici la numai 11 kilometri distanță de Chișinăul Republicii Moldova, este că toate informațiile pe care le afli într-un circuit de vizitare și testare, sunt amețitoare prin vechimea veșnic nouă și consistența lor. Pornim în aventura noastră aflând încă de la suprafață cam pe unde ne vor umbla roțile și picioarele. Ne îmbarcăm în trenulețe cochete, formate din vehicule similare cu cele folosite pe terenurile de golf. Ghidul subliniază că trenulețele sunt alimentate electric, deci nu poluează spațiul, iar bateriile rezistă, în funcție de traseele parcurse, circa o zi. Despre ce distanțe poate fi vorba în Orașul subteran Cricova, care se află chiar sub orășelul cu același nume? Unii acreditează ideea că ar fi 120 de kilometri, alții 100 de kilometri de drumuri labirintice. Dar toți specialiștii au convenit că vreo 60 de kilometri sunt organizați și utilizați numai pentru depozitarea și prelucrarea industrială a vinului. Locul a fost cândva o mină. Amenajările ulterioare au pus în valoarea parametrii climatici. La peste 100 de metri adîncime temperaturile se păstrează constant între 12 și 14 grade, ideale pentru a proteja un tezaur format din 1,25 de milioane de sticle de vin rare și de colecție la care se adaugă stocajul de circa 30 de milioane de litri produse anual.\r\n\r\nO parte din cantitate este păstrată în butoaie uriașe de circa 7.000 de litri. Ctitorul Cricovei subterane a fost Petru Ungureanu, unul dintre fondatorii Combinatului. A fost denumit Dom Pérignon-ul de la Cricova, iar numele său a apărut pe cartea emblematică ”Bazele vinificației în Moldova”, tipărită în 1960, De atunci a început să crească povestea celui mai valoros brand din Republica Moldova - ”Cramele Cricova”. Valoarea lui era estimată în urmă cu 5 ani la circa 35 de milioane de dolari. Valoare de tezaur care crește în fiecare an. Numai colecția națională de vinuri cuprinde peste 200 de mărci istorice intangibile, pentru că fac parte din patrimoniul național al Moldovei. Cea mai scumpă este sticla de vin produsă în 1902 din care a rămas o singură butelie, dintr-un lot de 400 de exemplare. Nu va fi niciodată vândută. La ultima evaluare a ”bătut” la aproximativ 150.000 de euro. Poate credeți că spusele ghidului sunt gogoși umflate. Poate, dar asta e soarta turistului. Dacă vreți să aflați mai multe despre istoria Cramelor Cricova, cunoscute drept unul dintre cele mai mari orașe subterane din Europa, puteți să intrați la Cinema. Aici rulează un film care amintește de anul 1952, când a fost fondat Combinatul de vinuri Cricova dar și de 2003, când a fost declarat prin Lege obiect al patrimoniului cultural - național al Republicii Moldova, de generațiile anterioare, care au pus câte ceva la creșterea celebrității vinurilor de Cricova, în special a celor spumante. Și ce poate fi mai plăcut decât să degustați un pahar de spumant (șampanie), inclus în prețul biletului de intrare (circa 15 euro)!? Dacă dorești ceva mai de clasă, firește, și prețul e pe măsură. Poate crezi că aici se termină călătoria ta subterană! La ieșirea din sală ești preluat și invitat să te plimbi pe străzi și bulevarde ce poartă numele de Cabernet Sauvignon, Fetească, Chardonnay, Aligote, Dionis, Legenda Plaiului etc. La străzile amintite s-au adăugat în ultimele decenii, investițiile făcute în amenajarea a 5 mari săli pentru reuniuni: ”Sala Europeană”, ”Fundul Mării” (care amintește de Marea Sarmatică pe al cărui fund se pare că umblăm), ”Sala Prezidențială”, ”Sala cu șemineu” și ”Casa Mare”, în care se împletesc elemente de arhitectură clasică cu detalii plastice de factură modernă, elemente decorative de mare rafinament, opere de artă și mobilier unicat. Impresionantă prin unicitate ni s-a părut sala ”Fundul Mării”, cu niște vitralii extraordinare, loc de pierzanie, ni se spune, pentru mulți somelieri și degustători. Tot aici aveți și un spațiu special dedicat ceremoniilor de căsătorie. Pentru acesta firmele de evenimente fac rezervări cu multe luni înainte. Dacă te rătăcești printre sticle, asta e! Vor da de tine următorii turiști. Ceva mai bine dispus, ceva mai fericit! Cam așa au ieșit probabil de aici demnitari internaționali printre care Vladimir Putin, care și-a sărbătorit a 50-a aniversare, Angela Merkel ori, mai nou Klaus Johannis.\r\n\r\nLa ieșire mai colectăm de la însoțitoarea noastră și această informație. În Republica Moldova sunt și alte crame subterane de vinuri, mult mai mari decât cea de la Cricova, dar mai puțin cunoscute. Cricova a câștigat competiția pe termen lung prin investițiile făcute în marketingul și managementul brandului.

Dar cealaltă parte de adevăr, aici la numai 11 kilometri distanță de Chișinăul Republicii Moldova, este că toate informațiile pe care le afli într-un circuit de vizitare și testare, sunt amețitoare prin vechimea veșnic nouă și consistența lor. Pornim în aventura noastră aflând încă de la suprafață cam pe unde ne vor umbla roțile și picioarele. Ne îmbarcăm în trenulețe cochete, formate din vehicule similare cu cele folosite pe terenurile de golf. Ghidul subliniază că trenulețele sunt alimentate electric, deci nu poluează spațiul, iar bateriile rezistă, în funcție de traseele parcurse, circa o zi. Despre ce distanțe poate fi vorba în Orașul subteran Cricova, care se află chiar sub orășelul cu același nume? Unii acreditează ideea că ar fi 120 de kilometri, alții 100 de kilometri de drumuri labirintice. Dar toți specialiștii au convenit că vreo 60 de kilometri sunt organizați și utilizați numai pentru depozitarea și prelucrarea industrială a vinului. Locul a fost cândva o mină. Amenajările ulterioare au pus în valoarea parametrii climatici. La peste 100 de metri adîncime temperaturile se păstrează constant între 12 și 14 grade, ideale pentru a proteja un tezaur format din 1,25 de milioane de sticle de vin rare și de colecție la care se adaugă stocajul de circa 30 de milioane de litri produse anual.\r\n\r\nO parte din cantitate este păstrată în butoaie uriașe de circa 7.000 de litri. Ctitorul Cricovei subterane a fost Petru Ungureanu, unul dintre fondatorii Combinatului. A fost denumit Dom Pérignon-ul de la Cricova, iar numele său a apărut pe cartea emblematică ”Bazele vinificației în Moldova”, tipărită în 1960, De atunci a început să crească povestea celui mai valoros brand din Republica Moldova - ”Cramele Cricova”. Valoarea lui era estimată în urmă cu 5 ani la circa 35 de milioane de dolari. Valoare de tezaur care crește în fiecare an. Numai colecția națională de vinuri cuprinde peste 200 de mărci istorice intangibile, pentru că fac parte din patrimoniul național al Moldovei. Cea mai scumpă este sticla de vin produsă în 1902 din care a rămas o singură butelie, dintr-un lot de 400 de exemplare. Nu va fi niciodată vândută. La ultima evaluare a ”bătut” la aproximativ 150.000 de euro. Poate credeți că spusele ghidului sunt gogoși umflate. Poate, dar asta e soarta turistului. Dacă vreți să aflați mai multe despre istoria Cramelor Cricova, cunoscute drept unul dintre cele mai mari orașe subterane din Europa, puteți să intrați la Cinema. Aici rulează un film care amintește de anul 1952, când a fost fondat Combinatul de vinuri Cricova dar și de 2003, când a fost declarat prin Lege obiect al patrimoniului cultural - național al Republicii Moldova, de generațiile anterioare, care au pus câte ceva la creșterea celebrității vinurilor de Cricova, în special a celor spumante. Și ce poate fi mai plăcut decât să degustați un pahar de spumant (șampanie), inclus în prețul biletului de intrare (circa 15 euro)!? Dacă dorești ceva mai de clasă, firește, și prețul e pe măsură. Poate crezi că aici se termină călătoria ta subterană! La ieșirea din sală ești preluat și invitat să te plimbi pe străzi și bulevarde ce poartă numele de Cabernet Sauvignon, Fetească, Chardonnay, Aligote, Dionis, Legenda Plaiului etc. La străzile amintite s-au adăugat în ultimele decenii, investițiile făcute în amenajarea a 5 mari săli pentru reuniuni: ”Sala Europeană”, ”Fundul Mării” (care amintește de Marea Sarmatică pe al cărui fund se pare că umblăm), ”Sala Prezidențială”, ”Sala cu șemineu” și ”Casa Mare”, în care se împletesc elemente de arhitectură clasică cu detalii plastice de factură modernă, elemente decorative de mare rafinament, opere de artă și mobilier unicat. Impresionantă prin unicitate ni s-a părut sala ”Fundul Mării”, cu niște vitralii extraordinare, loc de pierzanie, ni se spune, pentru mulți somelieri și degustători. Tot aici aveți și un spațiu special dedicat ceremoniilor de căsătorie. Pentru acesta firmele de evenimente fac rezervări cu multe luni înainte. Dacă te rătăcești printre sticle, asta e! Vor da de tine următorii turiști. Ceva mai bine dispus, ceva mai fericit! Cam așa au ieșit probabil de aici demnitari internaționali printre care Vladimir Putin, care și-a sărbătorit a 50-a aniversare, Angela Merkel ori, mai nou Klaus Johannis.\r\n\r\nLa ieșire mai colectăm de la însoțitoarea noastră și această informație. În Republica Moldova sunt și alte crame subterane de vinuri, mult mai mari decât cea de la Cricova, dar mai puțin cunoscute. Cricova a câștigat competiția pe termen lung prin investițiile făcute în marketingul și managementul brandului.

Lonely Planet placed the village in the Top 10 of most colorful places in Europe. „Carpathian Mountains. The very name conjures up images of vampires, werewolves and bewitched forests. But in the historic Bucovina region, Ciocănești busts every spooky cliché: after all, what could be less terrifying than an entire village painted like Easter eggs?” writes Tamara Sheward.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe historical region of Bucovina, where the village lays, is famous, among others, for the tradition of decorating Easter eggs with patterns taken from the folk suits of the locals. The people started to apply the motifs on the houses in Ciocanesti just about the 1950’s and, due to the high appreciation of the community and visitors, in 2004, the Local council decided to support this unique activity. Any new house must be decorated and the owners do receive a small financing to keep the tradition going.\r\n\r\nBUCUREȘTI has the 1st Hilton Garden Inn\r\nHilton opened the first Hilton Garden Inn in Romania.

\r\n\r\n- După mulți ani Grecia a participat cu stand național la Târgul Internațional de Turism de la București. Este Grecia și mai interesată de creșterea vizibilității pe piața românească !?\r\n\r\n- Da. S-au produs mai multe acumulări. Ne onorează că suntem prezenți la acest târg. După cum știți Grecia are un Birou de promovare turistică în București de mai mulți ani. Dar din 2017 avem un director de Birou chiar în România în persoana domnului Georgios Stafylakis. Politica noastră este să ne promovăm în principal prin birourile turistice din întreaga lume. Avem o relație specială cu România și asta se reflectă în faptul că suntem primii în preferințele turiștilor dumneavoastră. În continuare vom dezvolta prin acest Birou proiecte de colaborare.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6374,6375,6376,6377\"]\r\n\r\n- În 2016 numărul de turiști români care și-au petrecut vacanțele în țara dumneavoastră s-a dublat. Ce așteptări aveți pentru 2018?\r\n\r\n- După cum arată statisticile numărul călătorilor români spre Elada crește în fiecare an. România a înregistrat una dintre cele mai mari rate la acest capitol printre țările furnizoare de turiști. Rezervările au crescut. În 2017 s-a înregistrat o creștere de circa 12-15%, dar cifrele se referă la situația pe primele 9 luni. Acum vorbim despre un milion de turiști români, dar e posibil ca în final să fi fost circa 1,2 milioane. E un procent foarte bun dacă privim atent că România este o țară mare cu circa 20 de milioane de locuitori și dacă evaluăm în ansamblu numărul de români care călătoresc în străinătate.\r\n\r\n- Grecia deține patrimonii impresionante, culturale, gastronomice, religioase etc. Sunteți preocupați să lansați produse noi, inovative pe piața internațională?\r\n\r\n- (Zâmbește) Este dificil să vă răspund. Mai ales acum când reprezint turismul grecesc. Primul lucru care trebuie înțeles este de fapt elementul cel mai dinamic al turismului grecesc: o comunitate locală puternică preocupată de specificul ei. Este cel mai de preț și cel mai valoros atu. Grecii sunt un popor foarte prietenos. Iar dorința lor este ca turiștii să ne cunoască la noi în casă. E întradevăr important să inovezi permanent în turism, dar după părerea mea și mai important este locul cu tradițiile tale. Chiar dacă pare o filosofie învechită a turismului noi vom dezvolta circuite turistice cu activități religioase, gastronomice, istorice, artistice, naturale, în interiorul cărora vom inova în continuare. Noi credem că turistul străin vine în Grecia ca să cunoască, să vadă, să simtă vibrația oamenilor. Pentru DisneyLand se duce în SUA ori la Paris, dar pentru sirtaki, Delphi, Acropolis, Meteora, uzo este așteptat în Țara Zeilor. Turiștii vor trăi împreună cu noi, vor mânca, vor dansa, vor cânta. De aici vine forța pe care o dă turismului comunitatea locală. Cel care a venit odată suntem siguri că se va mai reîntoarce în Grecia. De altfel mesajul turismului grec este prietenie, colaborare, pace și înțelegere în întreaga lume. Turismul construiește zilnic punți între oameni. Aceste relații întăresc prietenia. Trebuie în permanență să promovăm pacea între oameni, comunități și țări. Acest aspect mi se pare foarte... inovativ.\r\n\r\n- Dacă nu ați fi președintele ENOT ci un simplu cetățean, care ar fi primele 3 destinații pe care m-ați invita să le vizitez?\r\n\r\n- Iar mă puneți într-o situație dificilă. Ca președinte vă recomand miile de atracții din întreaga țară. Ca persoană privată, atunci când îmi permite timpul, îmi place să navighez cu prietenii prin Grecia centrală și să mă plimb. E cel mai bun lucru de făcut pentru turismul care privește soarele și marea. Eu sunt arhitect de profesie și îmi place să descopăr clădiri care vorbesc despre istoria locală și, de ce nu, despre istoria lumii. Preferatele mele sunt insula Hydra, regiunea Pelion, Patmos și Chania-Creta.\r\n\r\n- Cum arată Top 5 al furnizorilor de turiști pentru piața grecească? Ce schimbări se conturează în perspectiva anilor 2020?\r\n\r\n- Nu cred că vom asista la răsturnări spectaculoase în top. Țările europene mari vor avea întotdeauna oameni cu bugete alocate pentru călătorii. Germania, Franța, Anglia vor continua să domine acest top. Poate doar procentele se vor schimba. Dar nu vor fi diferențe mari. Schimbările vor apărea de la alte piețe foarte dinamice. Prin Biroruri ne promovăm strategic pe piețe ca India, China, America de Sud, dar nu uităm nicio clipă de Europa. Gândiți-vă doar la acest lucru: conform statisticilor în viitorii ani circa 150 de milioane de chinezi vor dori să călătorească în Europa. E cineva care rămâne insensibil la acest capitol.

Povestea lui datează de prin secolul al X-lea, dar actuala înfățișare a căpătat contur prin 1446 creată de către Dermot MacCarthy. Castelul a fost cândva impozant. Azi ferestrele te privesc goale ca privirile unor lupi singuratici înfometați. Nu există camere amenajate iar mobilierul interior este aproape inexistent. Castelul a devenit faimos pentru Piatra Elocinței aflată în turnul său. Merită urcat până acolo. Te ajută o scară spiralată cu o sută de trepte pe care poți ameți privind spectaculoasa imagine a zonei sufocată de verde, mult verde. Sus se vinde povestea. Te dai pe spate, susținut de ”omul de serviciu” care nu te scapă din priviri, îți bagi capul în lăcașul pietrei și plin de speranță o... săruți. De acum încolo vei căpăta darul elocinței și vei deveni, un orator desăvârșit. Nu chiar ca în ”Discursul Regelui”, dar totuși. Pe tema asta s-au turnat scene de film unele ajunse și pe covorul roșu al Hollywood-ului. Lepriconii râd în barbă și-ți reamintesc exasperarea Reginei Elisabeta care le tăia cuvântul celor ce-i înșirau povești cu replica plină de înțelepciune regală : D’ont Blarney me! Originea acestei pietre e atribuită Profetului Eremia care ar fi adus-o pentru a fi folosită ca un oracol de către regii irlandezi. A ajuns apoi în posesia regilor Scoției care o considerau Piatra Destinului. În 1314 piatra a fost tăiată în două, jumătate fiind trimisă la Castelul Blarney. Și pentru că vrăjitoarele își au rostul rostul lor, una dintre ele salvată de la înec a descifrat muritorilor puterea misterioasei pietre: oricine o va săruta va căpăta darul elocinței.\r\n\r\nPelerinajul turistic continuă. Zeci de mii de vizitatori sunt atrași săptămânal de parcul dendrologic unde pe o suprafață de circa 240.000 de metri pătrați se află mii de specii de plante. Grădina este impresionantă. Cinci ore nu-ți ajung pentru a-i străbate aleile și a te încărca de miresme: grădina cu ferigi uriașe, cascade și pajiști smălțuite de flori sălbatice, cărarea pe care dacă o parcurgi înapoi cu ochii închiși îți va îndeplini toate dorințele, grupuri de statui etc. Urnele druidice din care fac parte Piatra vrăjitoarei, Cele șapte surori, Peștera druidică te umplu cu o energie specială. De reținut Grădina otrăvită, unde se află o colecție de plante vii toxice, provenite din toate colțurile lumii. Cu nume, calități și efecte speciale, ca să nu spunem... mortale. Grădina este și spațiu pentru educație școlară așa că zilnic pot fi întâlniți mulți tineri care desenează, studiază, compară. Cu unul dintre proiectele lor ne-am delectat și noi: tinerii s-au gândit ca pentru perioada rece să protejeze copacii cu împletituri de lână multicolore. Așa a fost creat un spațiu artistic nou. Istorie și natură. Ruina unui castel scufundat într-o grădină modernă. Peste toate plutește muzica cimpoiului... irlandez (foto copertă).\r\n\r\nBunratty Castle - My Lord, My Ledy\r\n\r\nDă greutate zonei Killarney. Vechimea ca și povestea creează aceeași atmosferă misterioasă, dar care impune respect. A fost construit la 1425 într-o formă specială. E pătrată, deține 4 turnuri de observare și apărare, 6 etaje cu numeroase camere dotate cu piese originale de mobilier datând din sec. XV - XVI. Am spune că este o excepție. Impresionante ni s-au părut vitraliile cu imagini amintind de spiritele malefice. Dar mai ales viața modernă a acestei fortărețe animată de două ori pe zi de banchete medievale date în cinstea... nomazilor turistici. Personalul te așteaptă în costume de epocă iar vizitatorii sunt întâmpinați cu My Lord ori My Lady.\r\n\r\nDeh, eticheta! Asta nu este tot! Cu o sută de ani în urmă localnicii au reconstruit în parcul din fața castelului un sat tipic irlandez (un veritabil muzeu al satului), cu stradă principală, mori, ferme, biserică, poștă etc. Este o plăcere să bei un ceai la ”Tea Room”, să mănânci o plăcintă cu mere făcută chiar în fața ta căci, lucru important, toate casele-exponat produc în fiecare zi... bani. Un prânz delicios întâlniți la MacNamara & Sons Bar Hotel, iar pentru o seară tradițională vă puteți face rezervare la Bunratty Corn Bar. Și, uite așa, vremurile de demult sunt ajutate să reînvie în fiecare seară. Intrarea și la acest castel, costă între 10 și 15 euro.\r\n\r\nRegele John și Robin Hood între oglinzi\r\n\r\nLa fel de vechi este și castelul regelui John, atât de universal asociat cu aventurile lui Robin Hood. E atestat de prin secolul al XIII-lea în plin Ev mediu și este azi ca o nestemată în arhitectura cochetului Limerick. Tehnologiile moderne puse la dispoziția turiștilor includ proiecții 3D cu întreaga poveste a castelului. Desigur o plimbare prin curtea castelului, ce se dezvăluie ca o veritabilă fortăreață este la fel de instructivă. Iar dacă doriți să aflați gustul unui grătar regal vă puteți face o rezervare la restaurantul din apropiere.\r\n\r\nRegele John a fost un erou important al irlandezilor. Ne continuăm drumul pe urmele sale și ajungem la Dublin. Cosmopolit și prietenos castelul din centrul vechi al orașului este ctitorie a acestui rege. A fost ridicat la 1204 pe locul unei așezări vikinge veche de o mie de ani: Dubh Linn sau Black Pool. De la aceasta se trage numele orașului Dublin. La vremea ei a fost considerată cea mai puternică fortăreață a irlandezilor și locul din care conduceau țară viceregii și coloniștii englezi. Irlandezii au avut și ei un Război de independență (1919-1921). Așa era curentul acelor vremuri. Astfel castelul din Dublin a devenit reședința primului conducător al statului liber irlandez. De la ghidul însoțitor - apropo, puteți să vă luați un ghid personal, sau apela la un City tour (vă stau la dispoziție două companii de transport turistic) -, mai veți afla că în prezent o parte din castel servește același scop; este reședința oficială a președintelui, locul de depunere a jurământului la începutul mandatului și, evident, al ceremoniilor oficiale. În același timp este deschis publicului vizitator. Încăperile castelului sunt foarte aerisite și mai ales elegante, luminoase, luxoase. Aici am aflat că harpa de aur pe fond albastru este emblema Irlandei. Lepriconul râde de noi: credeai că este a berii Guinness? Ne facem că nu auzim și admirăm Sălile Tronului, a Portretelor, cea Ovală sau Wedgwood Room, ori cea Gotică și încheiem cu poate cea mai căutată de către turiști: Sala Sfântului Patrick. Pe pereți sunt expuse steagurile cavalerilor Ordinului cu acest nume. E și cea mai importantă sală de ceremonii a Republicii Irlanda, aici fiind ”înscăunat” odată la 7 ani președintele țării.\r\n\r\nVoi aveți castele? Să nu le vopsiți, să le modernizați prea mult! Faceți turism cu ele?, pare să ne întrebe lepriconul irlandez. Ce să-i răspundem?

Vechimea ca și povestea creează aceeași atmosferă misterioasă, dar care impune respect. A fost construit la 1425 într-o formă specială. E pătrată, deține 4 turnuri de observare și apărare, 6 etaje cu numeroase camere dotate cu piese originale de mobilier datând din sec. XV - XVI. Am spune că este o excepție. Impresionante ni s-au părut vitraliile cu imagini amintind de spiritele malefice. Dar mai ales viața modernă a acestei fortărețe animată de două ori pe zi de banchete medievale date în cinstea... nomazilor turistici. Personalul te așteaptă în costume de epocă iar vizitatorii sunt întâmpinați cu My Lord ori My Lady.\r\n\r\nDeh, eticheta! Asta nu este tot! Cu o sută de ani în urmă localnicii au reconstruit în parcul din fața castelului un sat tipic irlandez (un veritabil muzeu al satului), cu stradă principală, mori, ferme, biserică, poștă etc. Este o plăcere să bei un ceai la ”Tea Room”, să mănânci o plăcintă cu mere făcută chiar în fața ta căci, lucru important, toate casele-exponat produc în fiecare zi... bani. Un prânz delicios întâlniți la MacNamara & Sons Bar Hotel, iar pentru o seară tradițională vă puteți face rezervare la Bunratty Corn Bar. Și, uite așa, vremurile de demult sunt ajutate să reînvie în fiecare seară. Intrarea și la acest castel, costă între 10 și 15 euro.\r\n\r\nRegele John și Robin Hood între oglinzi\r\n\r\nLa fel de vechi este și castelul regelui John, atât de universal asociat cu aventurile lui Robin Hood. E atestat de prin secolul al XIII-lea în plin Ev mediu și este azi ca o nestemată în arhitectura cochetului Limerick. Tehnologiile moderne puse la dispoziția turiștilor includ proiecții 3D cu întreaga poveste a castelului. Desigur o plimbare prin curtea castelului, ce se dezvăluie ca o veritabilă fortăreață este la fel de instructivă. Iar dacă doriți să aflați gustul unui grătar regal vă puteți face o rezervare la restaurantul din apropiere.\r\n\r\nRegele John a fost un erou important al irlandezilor. Ne continuăm drumul pe urmele sale și ajungem la Dublin. Cosmopolit și prietenos castelul din centrul vechi al orașului este ctitorie a acestui rege. A fost ridicat la 1204 pe locul unei așezări vikinge veche de o mie de ani: Dubh Linn sau Black Pool. De la aceasta se trage numele orașului Dublin. La vremea ei a fost considerată cea mai puternică fortăreață a irlandezilor și locul din care conduceau țară viceregii și coloniștii englezi. Irlandezii au avut și ei un Război de independență (1919-1921). Așa era curentul acelor vremuri. Astfel castelul din Dublin a devenit reședința primului conducător al statului liber irlandez. De la ghidul însoțitor - apropo, puteți să vă luați un ghid personal, sau apela la un City tour (vă stau la dispoziție două companii de transport turistic) -, mai veți afla că în prezent o parte din castel servește același scop; este reședința oficială a președintelui, locul de depunere a jurământului la începutul mandatului și, evident, al ceremoniilor oficiale. În același timp este deschis publicului vizitator. Încăperile castelului sunt foarte aerisite și mai ales elegante, luminoase, luxoase. Aici am aflat că harpa de aur pe fond albastru este emblema Irlandei. Lepriconul râde de noi: credeai că este a berii Guinness? Ne facem că nu auzim și admirăm Sălile Tronului, a Portretelor, cea Ovală sau Wedgwood Room, ori cea Gotică și încheiem cu poate cea mai căutată de către turiști: Sala Sfântului Patrick. Pe pereți sunt expuse steagurile cavalerilor Ordinului cu acest nume. E și cea mai importantă sală de ceremonii a Republicii Irlanda, aici fiind ”înscăunat” odată la 7 ani președintele țării.\r\n\r\nVoi aveți castele? Să nu le vopsiți, să le modernizați prea mult! Faceți turism cu ele?, pare să ne întrebe lepriconul irlandez. Ce să-i răspundem? Să vină să le vadă.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n ','IRLANDA- Avem castele, ce facem cu ele!, MAPAMOND nr.167','','inherit','closed','closed','','6345-revision-v1','','','2018-09-23 13:56:52','2018-09-23 11:56:52','',6345,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2018/09/23/6345-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6347,1,'2018-09-23 14:01:37','2018-09-23 12:01:37','Marea Provocare:\r\nSĂ TRECI PESTE PODUL LUI DUMNEZEU\r\n\r\nContează mai puțin din ce direcție vii.

Astfel el nu s-ar numi întâmplător și Podul Uriașilor. Aici apare în scenă Iovan Iorgovan, în mitologia românească similar cu Hercule, ce se spune că în luptă cu Hidra pe care dorea să o prindă, a tăiat cu sabia o stâncă uriașă. Aceasta s-ar fi prăbușit formând podul de la Ponoare. Hidra ar fi străpuns muntele fugind spre spre izvoarele termale pentru a prinde puteri. Locul mai are legătură cu Dracul care locuia în Peștera Ponoare, loc de unde pricinuia destule pagube oamenilor din zonă. Localnici s-ar fi rugat la Dumnezeu să-i scape de o asemenea pacoste, și cum nici nu cereau prea mult acesta a dărâmat tavanul peșterii ca să-l strivească pe diavol. Asa s-ar fi format... Podul ce poartă numele... lui Dumnezeu. Pe de altă parte nici Necuratul nu a fost atât de negru, pentru că după surparea tavanului, el a găsit o altă ieșire din peșteră. El s-ar fi agățat cu ghearele de dealul din apropiere și astfel au răsărit în apropiere cele două câmpuri de lapiezuri. Altă versiune legată de Dumnezeu îl aduce în prim plan pe călugărul Nicodim. În căutarea unui loc pentru a ridica o mănăstire, înfăptuire pe care o va face ulterior la Tismana, el s-a oprit la Ponoarele. Sătenii s-au speriat că le va lua din pământuri (ceva știau ei, mai ales că erau oameni liberi) și l-au acuzat înscenându-i un furt (ceea ce n-a fost tocmai frumos). Dumnezeu l-a ajutat pe Nicodim să scape de săteni. Surpând tavanul peșterii el a construit Podul lui Dumnezeu deschizându-i drumul spre Tismana.O variantă mai amplă relatează că înainte de a pleca, el a blestemat apa de la Ponoarele (ceea ce n-a fost tocmai frumos), să rămână fără pești și să o înghită pământul.

În condițiile în care nu am ieșit cu nicio campanie de promovare pe rețelele internaționale, pe la jumătatea anului am desființat toate birourile de turism din străinătate, iar Internetul turistic nici n-a auzit de România. Cîțiva touroperatori germani importanți - Dertour și TUI -, s-au săturat de jocul de picioare și de gogoși propagandistice -, și ne-au eliminat din broșurile lor pe 2018. Simplu, pentru că nu s-au plătit vreo 50.000 de euro. La Dertour, spre exemplu. E clar, la nemți gratis nu se poate.\r\n\r\nSe poate însă la români. La recenta ediție a ITBerlin, o placă turnantă a turismului mondial, în toate comunicatele transmise de Minister s-a repetat insistent că toți artiștii autohtoni (că au fost muzicieni simfonici, de Eurovision, populari, pictori de icoane ori pe ouă, meșteșugari), n-au primit niciun ban pentru prestațiilor lor. Au evoluat din spirit patriotic și voluntar pentru că ei iubesc România. Nu e nimic rău în asta. Dar dragostea de frumusețile patriei e una, plata pentru evoluțiile artistice e alta. Chiar dacă îl va suprinde noul ministru Bogdan Trif, ar trebui să afle că artiștii sunt oameni care plătesc taxe, impozite, întreținere, energie etc. Că pentru a se forma profesional au cheltuit o avere. Propunere. Transformați măcar edițiile interne ale Târgurilor de Turism, în opere de caritate. Atunci voluntarii vor fi aplaudați.\r\n\r\nȘi alta scurtă. La o activitate de control s-a constatat printre altele că actualul Minister al Turismului a moștenit un depozit cu zeci de tone de broșuri și alte materiale de promovare uzate moral. Întrebarea este de ce n-au fost distribuite în perioada respectivă. Soluții? Cel puțin două. Să se facă ceva bani prin reciclarea lor. Pe de altă parte cele mai recente lucrări să fie refăcute, cu coperți actualizate și injectate în... promovarea României. Din milioanele de euro mai recuperăm câteva mii. Tot e ceva - ar ajunge să fie plătite prestațiile artiștilor români. Și, sper, că n-ați uitat vorba aceea: ce e gratis, e imoral, toxic și îngrașă.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Cover-Traveller-167.jpg\")

Și uite așa călătorul mânat de spiritul cuceritor, bifează castel după castel însoțiți de șoferii care mormăie ceva de genul ABC (another blody castle)...\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6371,6365,6366,6367,6368,6369,6370\"]\r\n\r\nSunt peste tot. Înșirate ca oile pe pajiștile de smarald. Înțesate de vechi legende ele par să concureze la titlul de... cele mai frumoase ruine care îi fascinează pe turiști. Sunt atât de numeroase încât administrația Republicii Irlanda nu face față cu restaurarea lor. Sincer vorbind fantomaticele siluete ale construcțiilor îți captează atenția tocmai pentru că arată așa neterminate, dar să nu vă închipuiți că ele nu sunt valorificate turistic. Fiecare își vinde povestea, istoria și misterioasele întâmplări ale familiilor, dinastiilor ori personajelor aventuroase, justițiare, nebune, sângeroase, cu vieți preponderent tragice. Călătorii intră de bunăvoie în capcanele acestor circuite turistice. Ceea ce am făcut și noi.\r\n\r\nBlarney Castle și piatra elocinței\r\n\r\nNu-l puteți rata. Se află între Cork și Dublin. Povestea lui datează de prin secolul al X-lea, dar actuala înfățișare a căpătat contur prin 1446 creată de către Dermot MacCarthy. Castelul a fost cândva impozant. Azi ferestrele te privesc goale ca privirile unor lupi singuratici înfometați. Nu există camere amenajate iar mobilierul interior este aproape inexistent. Castelul a devenit faimos pentru Piatra Elocinței aflată în turnul său. Merită urcat până acolo. Te ajută o scară spiralată cu o sută de trepte pe care poți ameți privind spectaculoasa imagine a zonei sufocată de verde, mult verde. Sus se vinde povestea. Te dai pe spate, susținut de ”omul de serviciu” care nu te scapă din priviri, îți bagi capul în lăcașul pietrei și plin de speranță o... săruți. De acum încolo vei căpăta darul elocinței și vei deveni, un orator desăvârșit. Nu chiar ca în ”Discursul Regelui”, dar totuși. Pe tema asta s-au turnat scene de film unele ajunse și pe covorul roșu al Hollywood-ului. Lepriconii râd în barbă și-ți reamintesc exasperarea Reginei Elisabeta care le tăia cuvântul celor ce-i înșirau povești cu replica plină de înțelepciune regală : D’ont Blarney me! Originea acestei pietre e atribuită Profetului Eremia care ar fi adus-o pentru a fi folosită ca un oracol de către regii irlandezi. A ajuns apoi în posesia regilor Scoției care o considerau Piatra Destinului. În 1314 piatra a fost tăiată în două, jumătate fiind trimisă la Castelul Blarney. Și pentru că vrăjitoarele își au rostul rostul lor, una dintre ele salvată de la înec a descifrat muritorilor puterea misterioasei pietre: oricine o va săruta va căpăta darul elocinței.\r\n\r\nPelerinajul turistic continuă. Zeci de mii de vizitatori sunt atrași săptămânal de parcul dendrologic unde pe o suprafață de circa 240.000 de metri pătrați se află mii de specii de plante. Grădina este impresionantă. Cinci ore nu-ți ajung pentru a-i străbate aleile și a te încărca de miresme: grădina cu ferigi uriașe, cascade și pajiști smălțuite de flori sălbatice, cărarea pe care dacă o parcurgi înapoi cu ochii închiși îți va îndeplini toate dorințele, grupuri de statui etc. Urnele druidice din care fac parte Piatra vrăjitoarei, Cele șapte surori, Peștera druidică te umplu cu o energie specială. De reținut Grădina otrăvită, unde se află o colecție de plante vii toxice, provenite din toate colțurile lumii. Cu nume, calități și efecte speciale, ca să nu spunem... mortale. Grădina este și spațiu pentru educație școlară așa că zilnic pot fi întâlniți mulți tineri care desenează, studiază, compară. Cu unul dintre proiectele lor ne-am delectat și noi: tinerii s-au gândit ca pentru perioada rece să protejeze copacii cu împletituri de lână multicolore. Așa a fost creat un spațiu artistic nou. Istorie și natură. Ruina unui castel scufundat într-o grădină modernă. Peste toate plutește muzica cimpoiului... irlandez (foto copertă).\r\n\r\nBunratty Castle - My Lord, My Ledy\r\n\r\nDă greutate zonei Killarney. Vechimea ca și povestea creează aceeași atmosferă misterioasă, dar care impune respect. A fost construit la 1425 într-o formă specială. E pătrată, deține 4 turnuri de observare și apărare, 6 etaje cu numeroase camere dotate cu piese originale de mobilier datând din sec. XV - XVI. Am spune că este o excepție. Impresionante ni s-au părut vitraliile cu imagini amintind de spiritele malefice. Dar mai ales viața modernă a acestei fortărețe animată de două ori pe zi de banchete medievale date în cinstea... nomazilor turistici. Personalul te așteaptă în costume de epocă iar vizitatorii sunt întâmpinați cu My Lord ori My Lady.\r\n\r\nDeh, eticheta! Asta nu este tot! Cu o sută de ani în urmă localnicii au reconstruit în parcul din fața castelului un sat tipic irlandez (un veritabil muzeu al satului), cu stradă principală, mori, ferme, biserică, poștă etc. Este o plăcere să bei un ceai la ”Tea Room”, să mănânci o plăcintă cu mere făcută chiar în fața ta căci, lucru important, toate casele-exponat produc în fiecare zi... bani. Un prânz delicios întâlniți la MacNamara & Sons Bar Hotel, iar pentru o seară tradițională vă puteți face rezervare la Bunratty Corn Bar. Și, uite așa, vremurile de demult sunt ajutate să reînvie în fiecare seară. Intrarea și la acest castel, costă între 10 și 15 euro.\r\n\r\nRegele John și Robin Hood între oglinzi\r\n\r\nLa fel de vechi este și castelul regelui John, atât de universal asociat cu aventurile lui Robin Hood. E atestat de prin secolul al XIII-lea în plin Ev mediu și este azi ca o nestemată în arhitectura cochetului Limerick. Tehnologiile moderne puse la dispoziția turiștilor includ proiecții 3D cu întreaga poveste a castelului. Desigur o plimbare prin curtea castelului, ce se dezvăluie ca o veritabilă fortăreață este la fel de instructivă. Iar dacă doriți să aflați gustul unui grătar regal vă puteți face o rezervare la restaurantul din apropiere.\r\n\r\nRegele John a fost un erou important al irlandezilor. Ne continuăm drumul pe urmele sale și ajungem la Dublin. Cosmopolit și prietenos castelul din centrul vechi al orașului este ctitorie a acestui rege. A fost ridicat la 1204 pe locul unei așezări vikinge veche de o mie de ani: Dubh Linn sau Black Pool. De la aceasta se trage numele orașului Dublin. La vremea ei a fost considerată cea mai puternică fortăreață a irlandezilor și locul din care conduceau țară viceregii și coloniștii englezi. Irlandezii au avut și ei un Război de independență (1919-1921). Așa era curentul acelor vremuri. Astfel castelul din Dublin a devenit reședința primului conducător al statului liber irlandez. De la ghidul însoțitor - apropo, puteți să vă luați un ghid personal, sau apela la un City tour (vă stau la dispoziție două companii de transport turistic) -, mai veți afla că în prezent o parte din castel servește același scop; este reședința oficială a președintelui, locul de depunere a jurământului la începutul mandatului și, evident, al ceremoniilor oficiale. În același timp este deschis publicului vizitator. Încăperile castelului sunt foarte aerisite și mai ales elegante, luminoase, luxoase. Aici am aflat că harpa de aur pe fond albastru este emblema Irlandei. Lepriconul râde de noi: credeai că este a berii Guinness? Ne facem că nu auzim și admirăm Sălile Tronului, a Portretelor, cea Ovală sau Wedgwood Room, ori cea Gotică și încheiem cu poate cea mai căutată de către turiști: Sala Sfântului Patrick. Pe pereți sunt expuse steagurile cavalerilor Ordinului cu acest nume. E și cea mai importantă sală de ceremonii a Republicii Irlanda, aici fiind ”înscăunat” odată la 7 ani președintele țării.\r\n\r\nVoi aveți castele? Să nu le vopsiți, să le modernizați prea mult! Faceți turism cu ele?, pare să ne întrebe lepriconul irlandez. Ce să-i răspundem?

Babis Karimalis este Președintele Organizației Naționale a Turismului Grec (GNTO) ce activează în cadrul Ministerului Turismului. Ne-am întâlnit la București, unde această țară a organizat un ”raliu” de promovare a atracțiilor sale fabuloase. Peste 20 de oficialități grecești au făcut show la o ”academie de călătorii” coordonată de președintele Karimalis și Georgios Stafilakis, directorul Biroului grec de turism la București. Prilej excelent pentru un interviu.\r\n\r\n\r\n- După mulți ani Grecia a participat cu stand național la Târgul Internațional de Turism de la București. Este Grecia și mai interesată de creșterea vizibilității pe piața românească !?\r\n\r\n- Da. S-au produs mai multe acumulări. Ne onorează că suntem prezenți la acest târg. După cum știți Grecia are un Birou de promovare turistică în București de mai mulți ani. Dar din 2017 avem un director de Birou chiar în România în persoana domnului Georgios Stafylakis. Politica noastră este să ne promovăm în principal prin birourile turistice din întreaga lume. Avem o relație specială cu România și asta se reflectă în faptul că suntem primii în preferințele turiștilor dumneavoastră. În continuare vom dezvolta prin acest Birou proiecte de colaborare.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6374,6375,6376,6377\"]\r\n\r\n- În 2016 numărul de turiști români care și-au petrecut vacanțele în țara dumneavoastră s-a dublat. Ce așteptări aveți pentru 2018?\r\n\r\n- După cum arată statisticile numărul călătorilor români spre Elada crește în fiecare an. România a înregistrat una dintre cele mai mari rate la acest capitol printre țările furnizoare de turiști. Rezervările au crescut. În 2017 s-a înregistrat o creștere de circa 12-15%, dar cifrele se referă la situația pe primele 9 luni. Acum vorbim despre un milion de turiști români, dar e posibil ca în final să fi fost circa 1,2 milioane. E un procent foarte bun dacă privim atent că România este o țară mare cu circa 20 de milioane de locuitori și dacă evaluăm în ansamblu numărul de români care călătoresc în străinătate.\r\n\r\n- Grecia deține patrimonii impresionante, culturale, gastronomice, religioase etc. Sunteți preocupați să lansați produse noi, inovative pe piața internațională?\r\n\r\n- (Zâmbește) Este dificil să vă răspund. Mai ales acum când reprezint turismul grecesc. Primul lucru care trebuie înțeles este de fapt elementul cel mai dinamic al turismului grecesc: o comunitate locală puternică preocupată de specificul ei. Este cel mai de preț și cel mai valoros atu. Grecii sunt un popor foarte prietenos. Iar dorința lor este ca turiștii să ne cunoască la noi în casă. E întradevăr important să inovezi permanent în turism, dar după părerea mea și mai important este locul cu tradițiile tale. Chiar dacă pare o filosofie învechită a turismului noi vom dezvolta circuite turistice cu activități religioase, gastronomice, istorice, artistice, naturale, în interiorul cărora vom inova în continuare. Noi credem că turistul străin vine în Grecia ca să cunoască, să vadă, să simtă vibrația oamenilor. Pentru DisneyLand se duce în SUA ori la Paris, dar pentru sirtaki, Delphi, Acropolis, Meteora, uzo este așteptat în Țara Zeilor. Turiștii vor trăi împreună cu noi, vor mânca, vor dansa, vor cânta. De aici vine forța pe care o dă turismului comunitatea locală. Cel care a venit odată suntem siguri că se va mai reîntoarce în Grecia. De altfel mesajul turismului grec este prietenie, colaborare, pace și înțelegere în întreaga lume. Turismul construiește zilnic punți între oameni. Aceste relații întăresc prietenia. Trebuie în permanență să promovăm pacea între oameni, comunități și țări. Acest aspect mi se pare foarte... inovativ.\r\n\r\n- Dacă nu ați fi președintele ENOT ci un simplu cetățean, care ar fi primele 3 destinații pe care m-ați invita să le vizitez?\r\n\r\n- Iar mă puneți într-o situație dificilă. Ca președinte vă recomand miile de atracții din întreaga țară. Ca persoană privată, atunci când îmi permite timpul, îmi place să navighez cu prietenii prin Grecia centrală și să mă plimb. E cel mai bun lucru de făcut pentru turismul care privește soarele și marea. Eu sunt arhitect de profesie și îmi place să descopăr clădiri care vorbesc despre istoria locală și, de ce nu, despre istoria lumii. Preferatele mele sunt insula Hydra, regiunea Pelion, Patmos și Chania-Creta.\r\n\r\n- Cum arată Top 5 al furnizorilor de turiști pentru piața grecească? Ce schimbări se conturează în perspectiva anilor 2020?\r\n\r\n- Nu cred că vom asista la răsturnări spectaculoase în top. Țările europene mari vor avea întotdeauna oameni cu bugete alocate pentru călătorii. Germania, Franța, Anglia vor continua să domine acest top. Poate doar procentele se vor schimba. Dar nu vor fi diferențe mari. Schimbările vor apărea de la alte piețe foarte dinamice. Prin Biroruri ne promovăm strategic pe piețe ca India, China, America de Sud, dar nu uităm nicio clipă de Europa. Gândiți-vă doar la acest lucru: conform statisticilor în viitorii ani circa 150 de milioane de chinezi vor dori să călătorească în Europa. E cineva care rămâne insensibil la acest capitol. La capitolul sosiri în perspectiva 2020 ne așteptăm să primim peste 30 de milioane de turiști anual. Toți sunt prietenii noștri indiferent de rasă, de credință, sex și limba pe care o vorbesc.\r\n\r\nMARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n ','BABIS KARIMALIS:”Grecia este prima in preferintele romanilor !”, INTERVIU GRECIA nr.167','','inherit','closed','closed','','6343-revision-v1','','','2018-09-23 15:08:31','2018-09-23 13:08:31','',6343,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2018/09/23/6343-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6379,1,'2018-09-23 15:08:58','2018-09-23 13:08:58','','AHMED ALI ISMAIL, Egipt','','inherit','open','closed','','ahmed-ali-ismail-egipt','','','2018-09-23 15:08:58','2018-09-23 13:08:58','',6341,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/AHMED-ALI-ISMAIL-Egipt.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6380,1,'2018-09-23 15:09:21','2018-09-23 13:09:21','','Egypte, Louxor, montgolfiere survolant la rive ouest et le Nil','Egypte, Louxor, montgolfiere survolant la rive ouest et le Nil','inherit','open','closed','','egypte-louxor-montgolfiere-survolant-la-rive-ouest-et-le-nil','','','2018-09-23 15:09:21','2018-09-23 13:09:21','',6341,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Egipt-02.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6381,1,'2018-09-23 15:09:22','2018-09-23 13:09:22','','Egipt 22','','inherit','open','closed','','egipt-22','','','2018-09-23 15:09:22','2018-09-23 13:09:22','',6341,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Egipt-22.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6382,1,'2018-09-23 15:09:23','2018-09-23 13:09:23','','Egipt 23','','inherit','open','closed','','egipt-23','','','2018-09-23 15:09:23','2018-09-23 13:09:23','',6341,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Egipt-23.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6383,1,'2018-09-23 15:09:24','2018-09-23 13:09:24','','Egipt 25','','inherit','open','closed','','egipt-25','','','2018-09-23 15:09:24','2018-09-23 13:09:24','',6341,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Egipt-25.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6384,1,'2018-09-23 15:09:43','2018-09-23 13:09:43','Ahmed Ali Ismail este General manager în cadrul Consiliului de promovare turistică a Egiptului, un Departament al Ministerului Turismului responsabil cu promovarea Egiptului.

Chiar în această lună la Piramide a avut loc spectacolul cu opera ”Aida”, susținut de artiști români, italieni și japonezi.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6380,6381,6382,6383\"]\r\n\r\n- În strategia dumneavoastră ați mizat pe actori, artiști, sportivi internaționali pentru diversificarea vectorilor de publicitate și promovare. Care este ținta, care sunt mesajele?\r\n\r\n- Am creat un mesaj nou pentru viitor. În ultimii ani am invitat în Egipt peste 20 de personalități internaționale, în majoritatea lor americani. Lionel Messi a deschis această serie, ce a continuat cu Selma Hayek, inconfundabilul Morgan Freeman, Silvester Stalone și alții. De asemenea am creat un nou concept ”Holly Family” (Sfînta Familie) prin care ne-am propus să invităm personalități din lumea credinței din Italia, Vatican, Polonia, Ungaria și România care să transmită mesajul că în Egipt totul este în regulă, că drumul Sfintei Familii a pornit din Egiptul biblic și că numeroase religii și-au dat mâna aici.\r\n\r\n- Suntem singura țară de limbă latină din Europa centrală și de est. Deci suntem o piață specială. V-ați gândit la o abordare personalizată pentru consumatorii de vacanțe din România?\r\n\r\n- Imaginea pe care mi-am făcut-o în aceste zile despre piața turistică românească mă determină să afirm că românii au foarte multe lucruri comune cu egiptenii. Ne-am propus să fim mai activi pe piața românească prin activități multiple desfășurate și cu sprijinul Ambasadei Egiptului la București. Vom avea prezențe mai consistente la Târgurile de turism iar în domeniu promovării vom folosi ca vectori de imagine sportivi și artiști români celebri. Vom desfășura de asemenea o campanie de promovare în revistele de travel, tv și mediul on-line.\r\n\r\n- Care sunt destinațiile preferate de români în Țara Faraonilor?\r\n\r\n- La Târgul de turism am observat că sunt prezenți mari touroperatori precum Christian Tour, Cocktail Holidays, Mara Tour din Cluj, dar și agenții mai mici care promovează în cataloage destinații turistice din Egipt. Prețurile oferite satisfac toate buzunarele. Românii au ales în mod constant Sharm El Sheikh, Hurgada și Cairo. Spre deosebire de turiștii vest-europeni românii nu se tem să călătorească spre Egipt. În timp ce unii turiști vin numai pentru soare, alții aleg programe culturale. Am constatat că românii preferă în vacanțele lor să le îmbine pe amândouă. Și asta, sincer vorbind, ne procură o mare satisfacție.\r\n\r\n- Veți stimula în continuare agențiile de turism românești pentru creșterea numărului de turiști către Egipt?\r\n\r\n- Da, la întoarcerea mea la Cairo voi prezenta ministerului un program și un plan de susținere a agențiilor românești care creează și vând pachete turistice spre Egipt. Anul trecut am înregistrat circa 34.000 de turiști români. Ne dorim ca în următorii ani să ajungem la 63.000 de turiști români, cam cât primeam în 2010. România are un mare potențial. În viitor ținta noastră să atragem circa 100.000 de vizitatori. Dorim să susținem business-ul cu un număr mai mare de chartere - știți că deținem 8 aeroporturi - care pot să apropie și mai mult turiștii români de Egipt.\r\n\r\nEgiptul este unic în toate. Egiptul este parte a Patrimoniului Umanității. Oamenii Egiptului sunt prietenoși dar suferă atunci când turismul nu funcționează. În Egipt este vară tot anul. Egiptul este esența magiei. Egiptul este incredibil.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU','AHMED ALI ISMAIL:”Egiptul este incredibil, este esența magiei !”, INTERVIU EGIPT nr. 167','','inherit','closed','closed','','6341-revision-v1','','','2018-09-23 15:09:43','2018-09-23 13:09:43','',6341,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2018/09/23/6341-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6385,1,'2018-09-23 15:10:13','2018-09-23 13:10:13','','Calin Ile Ibis','','inherit','open','closed','','calin-ile-ibis','','','2018-09-23 15:10:13','2018-09-23 13:10:13','',6339,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Calin-Ile-Ibis.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6386,1,'2018-09-23 15:10:36','2018-09-23 13:10:36','','Inter indigo 103','','inherit','open','closed','','inter-indigo-103','','','2018-09-23 15:10:36','2018-09-23 13:10:36','',6339,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Inter-indigo-103.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6387,1,'2018-09-23 15:10:56','2018-09-23 13:10:56','Industria turistică autohtonă nu este ruptă în două, cum se spunea. Echipele cu vârstă mijlocie au început să performeze concurențial cu cele conduse de expați.

Hotelurile Ibis Gara de Nord și Parlament din București, Ibis Sibiu și Ibis Constanța, cumulează 761 de camere dar conceptul Ibis va crește foarte curând cu brandul Ibis Style, începutul fiind făcut în Arad și București. Călin Ile a fost director executiv la hotelul Ibis Gara de Nord între 2001-2004, apoi în calitate de director general l-a administrat pe cel din Constanța între 2004-2008, după care a preluat din nou conducerea hotelului Ibis de la Gara de Nord, tot ca director general. Grație stilului său dinamic a fost ales președinte al Federației Industriei Hoteliere din România (FIHR), prin care militează la dinamizarea investițiilor din această branșă dar și pentru pregătirea tinerilor ce dovedesc aptitudini pentru industria turistică.\r\n\r\nInterContinental tras la... INDIGO\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nStaff-ul InterContinental a anunțat că va deschide în România primul hotel sub brandul Indigo. Complexul va fi clasificat la 4 stele plus și va fi amenajat în centrul Bucureștiului, în urma unei investiții estimată la aproape 10 milioane de euro. Terenul a fost pregătit inițial pentru un amplu proiect de 20 de milioane de euro - The Vendome Palace & Galerie -, dar datorită crizei financiare proiectul a fost convertit doar pentru o funcționalitate hotelieră. Cu aproximativ 100 de camere, clădirea va deține cinci etaje și trei nivele la subsol. Investiția este estimată de către reprezentanții lanțului hotelier internațional a fi finalizată în acest an. Indigo este un brand boutique al grupului InterContinental. Compania se mândrește că fiecare hotel Indigo este diferit, arhitectura și designul fiind inspirate de particularitățile zonei unde este situat. Camerele sunt ornate cu picturi murale, obiecte de artă, covoare și diferite accesorii, înlocuite periodic.\r\n\r\nALIANȚĂ între 9 organizații\r\n\r\nAsociația Națională a Agențiilor de Turism (ANAT), Asociația de Ecoturism din România (AER), Bucharest Tourism Board (BTB), Coaliția pentru Dezvoltarea României (CDR), Federația Asociațiilor de Promovare Turistica (FAPT), Federația Industriei Hoteliere din România (FIHR), Organizația Patronală a Hotelurilor și Restaurantelor din România (HORA), Organizația Patronală a Turismului Balnear din România (OPTBR) și Clubul Profesioniștilor din Turism (SKAL) au hotărât să creeze o structură unică care să reunească un mesaj unitar de acțiune. Pentru început, după cum s-a afirmat la prima ei conferință cu sloganul ”Așa nu se mai poate” aceasta dorește de urgență înființarea „Organizației Române de Turism” (ORT), ca o entitate public-privată. Apariția ei este așteptată de mai bine de un deceniu. Cele 9 patronate și asociații reclamă, de asemenea, lipsa forței de muncă calificate în hoteluri și restaurante și cer autorităților măsuri pentru reducerea crizei personalului, una dintre acestea fiind sprijinirea înființării de școli profesionale. Mai mult, la nivel universitar nu sunt echivalate diplomele unor universități recunoscute la nivel mondial. O altă prioritate ar fi promovarea României. De la alegerea participării României la târguri de turism și până la desființarea birourilor de promovare din străinătate, autoritățile de resort au luat decizii unilaterale, de cele mai multe ori greșite. În acest sens este nevoie ca Legea turismului să proiecteze o viziune a turismului la nivel național, având în centru conceptul de destinație și Organizația de management a destinației (OMD) atât la nivel local, cât și la nivel național (ORT). Acestă abordare este absentă din propunerea de Lege a turismului.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU, ANGELA SIMION & ION BADEA\r\n+ SIGLA FIVESTAR\r\n\r\n ','Managementul hotelier vaneaza... romani, INDUSTRIE HOTELIERA nr.167','','inherit','closed','closed','','6339-revision-v1','','','2018-09-23 15:10:56','2018-09-23 13:10:56','',6339,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2018/09/23/6339-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6388,1,'2018-09-23 15:11:30','2018-09-23 13:11:30','','Sigla lupul Dacic','','inherit','open','closed','','sigla-lupul-dacic','','','2018-09-23 15:11:30','2018-09-23 13:11:30','',6336,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Sigla-lupul-Dacic.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6389,1,'2018-09-23 15:11:52','2018-09-23 13:11:52','','Calin Ile - IBIS Romania','','inherit','open','closed','','calin-ile-ibis-romania','','','2018-09-23 15:11:52','2018-09-23 13:11:52','',6336,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Calin-Ile-IBIS-Romania.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6390,1,'2018-09-23 15:12:05','2018-09-23 13:12:05','','Nicolae Demetriade','','inherit','open','closed','','nicolae-demetriade-2','','','2018-09-23 15:12:05','2018-09-23 13:12:05','',6336,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Nicolae-Demetriade.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6391,1,'2018-09-23 15:13:32','2018-09-23 13:13:32','Romania will chair the presidency of the European Union in 2019.

Pentru început, după cum s-a afirmat la prima ei conferință cu sloganul ”Așa nu se mai poate” aceasta dorește de urgență înființarea „Organizației Române de Turism” (ORT), ca o entitate public-privată. Apariția ei este așteptată de mai bine de un deceniu. Cele 9 patronate și asociații reclamă, de asemenea, lipsa forței de muncă calificate în hoteluri și restaurante și cer autorităților măsuri pentru reducerea crizei personalului, una dintre acestea fiind sprijinirea înființării de școli profesionale. Mai mult, la nivel universitar nu sunt echivalate diplomele unor universități recunoscute la nivel mondial. O altă prioritate ar fi promovarea României. De la alegerea participării României la târguri de turism și până la desființarea birourilor de promovare din străinătate, autoritățile de resort au luat decizii unilaterale, de cele mai multe ori greșite. În acest sens este nevoie ca Legea turismului să proiecteze o viziune a turismului la nivel național, având în centru conceptul de destinație și Organizația de management a destinației (OMD) atât la nivel local, cât și la nivel național (ORT). Acestă abordare este absentă din propunerea de Lege a turismului.\r\n\r\nALEX BARBU, ANGELA SIMION & ION BADEA\r\n\r\n\r\n ','Managementul hotelier vaneaza... romani, INDUSTRIE HOTELIERA nr.167','','inherit','closed','closed','','6339-revision-v1','','','2018-09-23 15:15:08','2018-09-23 13:15:08','',6339,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2018/09/23/6339-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6397,1,'2018-09-23 15:21:43','2018-09-23 13:21:43','[caption id=\"attachment_3965\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"225\"] Marian Constantinescu[/caption]\r\n\r\nCe poate fi spus despre muchia dintre anii 2017 și 2018? S-au dorit multe în turism, dar zgomotul de fond a fost mai mare decât lucrurile care au împins industria înainte. Cel mai mare eveniment a fost, după atâtea amânări începerea acordării Voucherelor de vacanță pentru salariații din sectorul de stat. Creșterile pe segmentul turismului intern se datorează unei părți din cei 1,35 milioane de bugetari (circa 30% din totalul de 4,61 de milioane de salariaţi din economie). Din 2018 situația se va schimba radical. Toți salariații de la stat vor beneficia de indemnizații de vacanță sub formă de vouchere, în cuantum de 1.450 de lei per persoană. Lesne de înțeles, 2018 va deveni cel mai bun an pentru turismul românesc din ultimul sfert de secol. Circulația voucherelor va face mai sănătos turismul românesc, și, sperăm, mai exigent pe consumatorul autohton.\r\n\r\nMarile eșecuri ale lui 2017 au constat în amânarea implementării Sistemul de înregistrare a turiștilor în unitățile de cazare și desființarea ultimelor noastre Birouri de Turism din străinătate. Este clar că interesul unor mari dar și mici întreprinzători este ca Sistemul de evidență al turiștilor să fie amânat cât mai mult. Motivele pentru a bloca implementarea lui sunt puerile și lipsite de logică într-o lume a profesioniștilor. Cât despre desființarea Birourilor de turism din străinătate, nu ar fi fost mare pagubă dacă în locul lor ar fi apărut o altă structură mai eficientă.\r\n\r\n\r\nSiguranța turistului? Sfârșitul lui 2017 a consemnat un nou faliment, transformat într-un show lamentabil. Omnia Turism și managerul său George Negru au fost ajutați să se ”sinucidă”. Ce au căutat în povestea asta trei ministere - Externe, Interne, Turism? În 2017 a fost pentru prima dată când Ministerul s-a implicat în blocarea unei firme private de turism. Agenția a fost îngropată pur și simplu fără a exista un raport clar asupra daunelor aduse turiștilor ? El va fi furnizat presei de către ANAF! Cândva, adică niciodată. Steag fals. Ca să-și justifice decizia pripită ministrul Mircea Titus Dobre, greșit consiliat de un om de afaceri vocal în turism, a declarat, că prima misiune a Ministerului pe care-l conduce ar fi securitatea și siguranța turistului. Fals! Prima misiune a ministerelor de profil de pe mapamond este cea de a promova, promova și iar promova atracțiile turistice menite să atragă, în fiecare an, câți mai mulți călători. Sunt alte structuri care garantează siguranța turiștilor. Totuși, e vremea să zâmbim! Acum, pe muchia dintre ani, pentru toate cele împlinite, vrute ori neputute, ridicăm un pahar de șampanie în cinstea cititorilor noștri.

Toți provin din mediul de afaceri dar marea surpriză o constituie faptul că o parte din ei au venit din alte domenii decât din cel hotelier. Programul se derulează în cadrul Parteneriatului între ASE şi EHL, semnat ȋn 2017 la Lausanne de către Rectorul ASE, prof. univ. dr. Nicolae Istudor şi CEO al EHL, Prof. Michel Rochat.\r\n\r\nDespre acest program au vorbit în ȋn Aula Magna a ASE Rectorul Academiei, Excelența Sa Dl. Urs Herren, Ambasadorul Confederației Elvețiene în România, Prof.univ dr. Rodica Pamfilie, decanul Facultății de Business și Turism (din cadrul ASE). Despre experiențele practice și didactice trăite în timpul cursurilor au relatat CEO Lausanne Hospitality Consulting, domnul Yateendra Sinh, Directorul de Dezvoltare Lausanne Hospitality Consulting, prof. dr. Ray Iunius, Prof univ. Dr. Gabriela Țigu, director program de studii ASE, respectiv dl. Valentin Păuna, de la Metro Cash & Carry România (Metro Global fiind partener strategic al Școlii de la Lausanne). Practic Programul s-a derulat pe o durată totală de 198 de ore de formare în domeniul ospitalității și al industriei hoteliere, asigurate de specialiști de la Școala din Lausanne și ASE. Absolvenții au obținut un Certificat de atestare a competențelor profesionale, recunoscut de Ministerul Educației Naționale din România și un Certificat de Educație executivă eliberat de École Hôtelière de Lausanne. Merită să amintim că École Hôtelière de Lausanne, fondată în 1893, este prima de acest profil din lume, cu o mare contribuție la dezvoltarea turismului în Elveţia. Aceasta e considerată de către specialiști ca fiind cea mai performantă şcoală pentru formarea de directori și operatori în industria ospitalităţii.\r\n\r\nTRANSALPINA: Primul hotel care acceptă Bitcoin\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Popasul-regelui-si-Transalpina.jpg\"){kind=spacer}

Extinderea Orbis Hotel Group, partenerul în Europa de Est al AccorHotels s-a făcut prin semnarea unui contract de management.\r\n\r\nLaurent Picheral, CEO Hotel Services, responsabil de Germania, Polonia, Țările baltice, Europa Centrală, Scandinavia și Balcani -, a subliniat că Accor Hotels, care operează prin intermediul partenerului polonez Orbis 7 hoteluri din România, intenționează să își dubleze în următorii ani unitățile deținute în România. Primul pas a fost făcut de curând la Arad unde a fost inaugurat primul ibis Styles din România, în parteneriat cu FAB Industry.\r\n\r\nUnitatea, cu 72 de camere (dintre care 6 apartamente), este una tip boutique, cu un design special, în categoria „chic economy”, la tarife all-inclusive. „Ținta noastră este să ajungem la cel puțin 20 de hoteluri în România, dar nu pot da un termen la care acest obiectiv se va concretiza. Trebuie să analizăm ce branduri și ce dimensiune vor avea hotelurile astfel încât să se potrivească pieței locale. Analizăm și alte oportunități pentru a vedea ce alte mărci din familia Fairmont ori Swissotel s-ar putea armoniza profitabil în România” - a mai declarat Picheral.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nBOULEVARD ar putea trece la lux\r\n\r\nDupă ce a trecut prin mai multe etape de modernizare ce vizau amenajarea unor spații de birouri combinate cu facilități hoteliere Grand Hotel du Boulevard, unul dintre cele mai vechi hoteluri din Bucuresti, va rămâne la prima sa vocație. Clădirea a fost construită începând cu anul 1867 și poartă semnătura arhitectului Alexandru Orăscu, căruia în aparține și proiectarea edificiului Universității București. Hotelul s-a deschis în 1873, sub numele de Hotel Herdan, iar din 1877 a funcționat cu câteva întreruperi sub brandul Grand Hotel du Boulevard.\r\n\r\nConform unor surse confirmate, acesta va fi transformat în hotel de lux de 5 stele, va oferi 60-70 de camere și va fi afiliat lanțului hotelier Corinthia. Managementul va fi operat pe baza unui contract de franciză. În clădirea Boulevard au fost investite până acum de către omul de afaceri Nicolae Dumitru, care deține și grupul Niro -, 15 milioane de euro. După cum s-a anunțat ceremonia oficială de semnare a parteneriatului în prezenţa reprezentanţilor Corinthia Hotels, NIRO Investement Group şi Beaufort Global Partners va avea loc pe 10 mai 2018, de Ziua Monarhiei Române, dată istorică importantă pentru poporul român. Serviciile de consultanţă sunt asigurate de Beaufort Global, o importantă firmă de investiții, dezvoltare și administrare de active cu sediul în Dubai.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nÎNTRE LAUSANNE ȘI BUCUREȘTI\r\n\r\nProgramul de studii postuniversitare Managementul Strategic al Ospitalității începe să-și scrie propria istorie. Organizat în comun de Academia de Studii Economice din București (ASE) și École Hôtelière de Lausanne (EHL) - cea mai prestigioasă şcoală din lume în domeniul turismului şi ospitalităţii el are deja, din luna aprilie, o primă promoție de absolvenți. Toți provin din mediul de afaceri dar marea surpriză o constituie faptul că o parte din ei au venit din alte domenii decât din cel hotelier. Programul se derulează în cadrul Parteneriatului între ASE şi EHL, semnat ȋn 2017 la Lausanne de către Rectorul ASE, prof. univ. dr. Nicolae Istudor şi CEO al EHL, Prof. Michel Rochat.\r\n\r\nDespre acest program au vorbit în ȋn Aula Magna a ASE Rectorul Academiei, Excelența Sa Dl. Urs Herren, Ambasadorul Confederației Elvețiene în România, Prof.univ dr. Rodica Pamfilie, decanul Facultății de Business și Turism (din cadrul ASE). Despre experiențele practice și didactice trăite în timpul cursurilor au relatat CEO Lausanne Hospitality Consulting, domnul Yateendra Sinh, Directorul de Dezvoltare Lausanne Hospitality Consulting, prof. dr. Ray Iunius, Prof univ. Dr. Gabriela Țigu, director program de studii ASE, respectiv dl. Valentin Păuna, de la Metro Cash & Carry România (Metro Global fiind partener strategic al Școlii de la Lausanne). Practic Programul s-a derulat pe o durată totală de 198 de ore de formare în domeniul ospitalității și al industriei hoteliere, asigurate de specialiști de la Școala din Lausanne și ASE. Absolvenții au obținut un Certificat de atestare a competențelor profesionale, recunoscut de Ministerul Educației Naționale din România și un Certificat de Educație executivă eliberat de École Hôtelière de Lausanne. Merită să amintim că École Hôtelière de Lausanne, fondată în 1893, este prima de acest profil din lume, cu o mare contribuție la dezvoltarea turismului în Elveţia. Aceasta e considerată de către specialiști ca fiind cea mai performantă şcoală pentru formarea de directori și operatori în industria ospitalităţii.\r\n\r\nTRANSALPINA: Primul hotel care acceptă Bitcoin\r\n\r\nRecent, Popasul Regelui a introdus posibilitatea de a achita serviciile de cazare şi masă prin criptomoneda Bitcoin. Astfel, hotelul devine prima unitate de cazare din România care acceptă această modalitate de plată. Hotelul este clasificat la 3 stele, are o capacitate de 50 de locuri, un restaurant cu 160 de locuri dar și o terasa cu 100 de locuri. În imediata apropiere se află renumita Stână a lu\' Ion, căutată de foarte mulți turiști dornici de a gusta preparatele tradiționale românești. “Dacă în trecut plățile se puteau efectua numai numerar, astăzi tot mai multă lume achită serviciile cu cardul dar au apărut și solicitări pentru varianta Bitcoin. Am fost surprins de numărul în creștere al acestor solicitări venite în special din partea turiștilor străini” - a declarat Traian Cornea, manager al Hotelului Popasul Regelui Transalpina.\r\n\r\nTIMIȘOARA: Ghici cine bate la ușă?\r\n\r\nAl patrulea Radisson Blu din România va fi construit în cartierul ISHO din Timșoara, deținut de investitorul Ovidiu Sandor. Hotelul, construit de compania Mulberry Development, va fi o componentă integrantă a proiectului imobiliar mixt ISHO, care cuprinde peste 1.000 de apartamente și 50.000 metrii pătrați de birouri. Unitatea va dispune de 160 de camere, un restaurant gastronomic, un bar concept, un spațiu de 1.000 de metri pătrați pentru socializare și un centru fitness. Construcția unității de cazare va fi finalizată în 2020 a anunțat The Rezidor Hotel Group. Portfoliul companiei internaționale în România va ajunge astfel la patru hoteluri, două în curs de operare și două în dezvoltare.\r\n\r\nBRAȘOV: Cifra 6 e norocoasă\r\n\r\nDupă doi ani de investiții grupul Ambient - care a împlinit 20 de ani de existență -, și-a adăugat în portofoliu ce-a de-a șasea unitate hotelieră. Resort Ambient – Your 5 star Hotel & Event Venue, este amplasată în localitatea Cristian (Județul Brașov) în imediata apropiere a Conacului Ambient. Printre facilitățile oferite se numără un salon evenimente cu 210 locuri, o sală conferinţe 120 locuri, 17 camere standard 5 stele, un restaurant, piscină exterioară și interioară încălzită, salon de jocuri, living, saună, masaj etc.\r\n\r\nGrupaj realizat de ANGELA SIMION, ALEX BARBU, MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n+ SIGLA FIVESTAR','Ce se mai poarta pe piata romaneasca ?, INDUSTRIE HOTELIERA nr.168','','inherit','closed','closed','','6410-revision-v1','','','2018-10-14 05:55:41','2018-10-14 03:55:41','',6410,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2018/10/14/6410-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6412,1,'2018-10-14 06:00:15','2018-10-14 04:00:15','Ce caută majoritatea călătorilor în Africa și în special Africa de Sud?

Pentru a-i înțelege spiritul eclectic și cordial trebuie să începi vizitarea lui din centrul vechi - Cartierul Hampden.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6459,6460,6461,6457,6458,6462,6463,6464,6465,6466,6467,6468\"]\r\n\r\nAspectul arhitectural este de secol XIX: o arteră cu spații comerciale aflaate în clădiri istorice, colorate și bine îngrijite. 1729 e anul fondării lui.\r\n\r\nUlterior a fost încercat de un cutremur. Dar a fost și a rămas unul dintre principalele porturi ale Statelor Unite. Orașul e pus în valoare de râul Patapsco. Forfota micilor comercianți anunță Târgul de sâmbătă, atunci când e liber la de toate: grătare uriașe (se pun în mișcare tone de carne), spectacole în aer liber, băuturi de vară și evident multă bere, flamingi roz decorativi, de dimensiuni mari care te îmbie să cumperi ”ceva” fără de care nu poți trăi, tablouri, gablonțuri, bijuterii, un Elvis, un Sinatra sau un Clark Cable, toate ies în stradă și te trag de mânecă. Lume ca la iarmarocurile noastre de pe vremuri care caută să cumpere ceva ce n-a văzut, n-a știut, n-a aflat. Noi ne-am dus direct la Shoes & Chocolate, un boutique magazin am spune, unde succesul proprietarei care atrage sute de turiști și consumatori, se bazează pe ciocolata de casă cu arome inedite lămâie, lapte, cocos, cacao, trandafiri și alte plante și fructe, care dau culoare, parfum și gust vieții. Doamna Susannah Siger ne spune că o parte din produsele sale ajung la Washington, New York și în alte orașe americane. Ideea magazinului de pe artera veche a fost pe cât de inedită pe atât de apreciată: ea a asortat ciocolata la o colecție de pantofi, la una de ciorapi multicolori, prilej de a sta pur și simplu la taclale cu gazda. ”Mă bucură că am deschis și afacerea cu ciorapi. Magazinul ne energizează atât pe mine cât și pe asociata mea, un spirit la fel de creativ. Mă bucură că asta se întâmplă aici la Baltimore” - ne spune doamna Siger. Succesul este garantat.\r\n\r\nLa întâlnire cu ”vedeta”\r\n\r\nCum spre ora prânzului aglomerația devine prea... turistică am optat pentru o croazieră prin Inner Harbor. De pe apă, clădirile orașului ni se desfășoară într-un ritm spectaculos: zgârie nori și Fort Mc Henry, podul emblematic Francis Scott Key Bridge, silueta fabricii istorice Domino Sugar, ambarcațiunile mici și mari, colorate și risipite toate în larg. Modernul centru de Informare turistică pune la dispoziție displayuri pentru orientare dar și pliante ori broșuri cu recomandări despre tot ce ai putea să vezi într-un sejur în Baltimore. Nimeni nu rezistă tentației de a vedea ”vedeta”, adică National Aquarium. Găzduiește peste 20.000 de vietăți care își duc traiul în habitaturi ”naturale”, concepute de către muzeografi și cercetători naturaliști. Multe dintre soluțiile tehnice aplicate au fost premiate pentru ingeniozitate. Plimbarea într-o pădure tropicală este egalată de cea printre pinguini, meduze și rechini uriași, pești colorați și somnoroși (cel mai vârstic fiind unul australian) etc. În toate secțiunile expoziționale ești asaltat de informații electronice plasate pe diferite suporturi dar și de demonstrațiile ghizilor exacți și amabili cu oferirea de detalii pe care le ține la secret... mama natură. La exteriorul Acvariului poți vizita submarine militare, corăbii ale piraților ce te invită în croazieră, și bineînțeles Centru de Informare Turistică (Visitors Bureau) de unde te mai poți alimenta cu noi broșuri (sunt disponibile circa 200) dar și un Oficiu Poștal. Organizarea modernă facilitează turistului o orientare confortabilă. Așa se explică de ce legiunile de turiști, intră și ies rapid de aici, excepție făcând doar cei care au devenit sclavii Wi-Fi, și nu pot trăi fără ”oxigenul” din internet.\r\n\r\nO viziune - hrana ca armă\r\n\r\nNe-am documentat și noi. Și am ajuns la concluzia că nu trebuie să ratăm American Visionary Art Museum, despre care unii colegi de breaslă de pe mapamond spuneau că este o instituție dedicată... kitschului. N-am fost singurii curioși, și asta am constatat după lungime cozii de la intrare.\r\n\r\nO gazdă deosebit de generoasă s-a dovedit a fi Rebecca Alban Hoffberger, fondatoarea instituției. Ce este American Visionary Art? Un muzeu? O galerie de artă? Un spațiu experimental? O expoziție inedită închinată alimentelor ce au marcat evoluția omenirii? Un restaurant de lux cu oferte organice apreciate? Probabil toate la un loc. Directoarea Hoffberger ne vorbește despre spațiile oferite artiștilor neconvenționali și încă fără cotă la bursa artei. Cu toate acestea Muzeul s-a dovedit de la deschidere a fi un succes. Rapid a devenit un ”must see” al orașului. În fiecare an aici te întâmpină expoziții tematice inedite. Cea vizitată de noi era dedicată mâncării și evoluției obiceiurilor noastre legate de această necesitate; o istorie a ambalajelor, a mobilierului, a felului de a găti... Toate operele de artă aflate pe simeze erau produse din... preparate alimentare neperisabile. Fiecare lucrare era și un mic îndrumar științific. Tot ce are viață pe acest pământ se... alimentează iar deprinderile gastronomice ale lumii s-au dezvoltat după descoperirea lumii noi: Americile de Sud și Nord. Încălzirea globală, efectele asupra omului și naturii, impactul hranei devenită o armă redutabilă în războaie, care sunt secretele ce stau la baza hrănirii unei planete cu peste 7,4 miliarde de oameni, și multe alte subiecte au ”provocat” creativitatea artiștilor. Lucrările permanente din muzeu nu pot fi încadrate în curente. Piesele de referință sunt un Icarus cinetic (vezi coperta), care magnetizează privirile indiferent la care din cele 6 etaje te-ai afla. Balustrada scărilor dar și piesele din curtea muzeului, ne amintesc de alți doi vizionari - Gaudi și Picasso. Muzeul oferă nu doar expoziții temporare ci și conferințe, concerte, acces pentru organizarea de evenimente private sau corporatiste.\r\n\r\nÎn același concept se integrează și restaurantul muzeului (care firește, își asigură resursele materiale nu numai din biletul de intrare). ”Encantada” a devenit în scurt timp, prin creativitatea Maeștrilor bucătari inspirați de tradiție, o emblemă culinară a orașului. Este apreciat și pentru faptul că meniurile aferente sunt realizate din produsele achiziționate de la furnizori privați locali, ce practică o agricultură și zootehnie bio. Kitsch sau artă? Noi n-am întâlnit decât artă.\r\n\r\nDacă fantomele au recita poezii\r\n\r\nȘi pentru că merităm, ca să amintim de o reclamă încă în vogă, ne luăm și noi după turiștii înfometați. Și ne oprim în port, la unul dintre cele mai populare localuri, celebrul Phillips Seafood. Soarele începe să apună și în spectrul văpăilor de lumini care se topesc în ape, încercăm să înțelegem de ce este acest restaurant renumit în întreaga Americă pentru preparatele sale de crab. La crabi ajungem mai târziu când se aprind luminile teraselor dar mai ales după ce ai aprofundat lecția despre cum se mânuiesc ustensilele cu care vei desface și consuma carnea fragedă din interiorul crabului. Mai multe tinere te urmăresc și te corectează. Între timp vin ”aperitivele” - adică scoici, creveți, pui prăjit crocant, porumb copt, salate la pachet cu orchestra ce se lasă încet în lumina serii cu melodii dansante. Acum e momentul apariției crabilor copți (nu uitați că Baltimore e lider național la capitolul crabi albaștri și scoici), turnați pe mese din saci de hârtie. Măcelul, vorba vine, poate începe. Totul e eco și cu respect față de natură. Ne delectăm dar mai avem încă ceva important de făcut. Ne mână curiozitatea. Ce fantome bântuie orașul? Stafiile turiștilor obosiți nu se pun la socoteală. Locul de pierzanie și întâlnire se numește Fell’s Point, ticsit de baruri, răufăcători, păsări de noapte în căutarea unui posibil parteneriat, pirați și alte povești asezonate cu condimente turistice. Ghidul nostru pare coborât dintr-un asemenea scenariu. Cu barbă albă, costum negru, baston, pălărie, cu timbru profund și nuanțat ne-a purtat prin noaptea fantomelor care trec frecvent prin Fell’s Point. Fantome n-am întâlnit dar poveștile au curs en-gros. Desigur hitul serii a fost povestea lui Poe. A poetului Edgar Alann Poe care s-a stins din viață la Baltimore în 1849. Ghidul ne-a mobilizat în fața localului unde scriitorul obișnuia să-și petreacă serile și nopțile bând și citind din poeziile sale. Poate din ”Corbul”, ”Annabel Lee”, ”Un vis într-un vis” etc. După cum am constatat și azi locul este supraîncărcat de cultură și băutură, rămânând plin ochi până spre dimineață sub pălăria amintirilor lui Poe.\r\n\r\nAtracții turistice?

Dar a fost și a rămas unul dintre principalele porturi ale Statelor Unite. Orașul e pus în valoare de râul Patapsco. Forfota micilor comercianți anunță Târgul de sâmbătă, atunci când e liber la de toate: grătare uriașe (se pun în mișcare tone de carne), spectacole în aer liber, băuturi de vară și evident multă bere, flamingi roz decorativi, de dimensiuni mari care te îmbie să cumperi ”ceva” fără de care nu poți trăi, tablouri, gablonțuri, bijuterii, un Elvis, un Sinatra sau un Clark Cable, toate ies în stradă și te trag de mânecă. Lume ca la iarmarocurile noastre de pe vremuri care caută să cumpere ceva ce n-a văzut, n-a știut, n-a aflat. Noi ne-am dus direct la Shoes & Chocolate, un boutique magazin am spune, unde succesul proprietarei care atrage sute de turiști și consumatori, se bazează pe ciocolata de casă cu arome inedite lămâie, lapte, cocos, cacao, trandafiri și alte plante și fructe, care dau culoare, parfum și gust vieții. Doamna Susannah Siger ne spune că o parte din produsele sale ajung la Washington, New York și în alte orașe americane. Ideea magazinului de pe artera veche a fost pe cât de inedită pe atât de apreciată: ea a asortat ciocolata la o colecție de pantofi, la una de ciorapi multicolori, prilej de a sta pur și simplu la taclale cu gazda. ”Mă bucură că am deschis și afacerea cu ciorapi. Magazinul ne energizează atât pe mine cât și pe asociata mea, un spirit la fel de creativ. Mă bucură că asta se întâmplă aici la Baltimore” - ne spune doamna Siger. Succesul este garantat.\r\n\r\nLa întâlnire cu ”vedeta”\r\n\r\nCum spre ora prânzului aglomerația devine prea... turistică am optat pentru o croazieră prin Inner Harbor. De pe apă, clădirile orașului ni se desfășoară într-un ritm spectaculos: zgârie nori și Fort Mc Henry, podul emblematic Francis Scott Key Bridge, silueta fabricii istorice Domino Sugar, ambarcațiunile mici și mari, colorate și risipite toate în larg. Modernul centru de Informare turistică pune la dispoziție displayuri pentru orientare dar și pliante ori broșuri cu recomandări despre tot ce ai putea să vezi într-un sejur în Baltimore. Nimeni nu rezistă tentației de a vedea ”vedeta”, adică National Aquarium. Găzduiește peste 20.000 de vietăți care își duc traiul în habitaturi ”naturale”, concepute de către muzeografi și cercetători naturaliști. Multe dintre soluțiile tehnice aplicate au fost premiate pentru ingeniozitate. Plimbarea într-o pădure tropicală este egalată de cea printre pinguini, meduze și rechini uriași, pești colorați și somnoroși (cel mai vârstic fiind unul australian) etc. În toate secțiunile expoziționale ești asaltat de informații electronice plasate pe diferite suporturi dar și de demonstrațiile ghizilor exacți și amabili cu oferirea de detalii pe care le ține la secret... mama natură. La exteriorul Acvariului poți vizita submarine militare, corăbii ale piraților ce te invită în croazieră, și bineînțeles Centru de Informare Turistică (Visitors Bureau) de unde te mai poți alimenta cu noi broșuri (sunt disponibile circa 200) dar și un Oficiu Poștal. Organizarea modernă facilitează turistului o orientare confortabilă. Așa se explică de ce legiunile de turiști, intră și ies rapid de aici, excepție făcând doar cei care au devenit sclavii Wi-Fi, și nu pot trăi fără ”oxigenul” din internet.\r\n\r\nO viziune - hrana ca armă\r\n\r\nNe-am documentat și noi. Și am ajuns la concluzia că nu trebuie să ratăm American Visionary Art Museum, despre care unii colegi de breaslă de pe mapamond spuneau că este o instituție dedicată... kitschului. N-am fost singurii curioși, și asta am constatat după lungime cozii de la intrare.\r\n\r\nO gazdă deosebit de generoasă s-a dovedit a fi Rebecca Alban Hoffberger, fondatoarea instituției. Ce este American Visionary Art? Un muzeu? O galerie de artă? Un spațiu experimental? O expoziție inedită închinată alimentelor ce au marcat evoluția omenirii? Un restaurant de lux cu oferte organice apreciate? Probabil toate la un loc. Directoarea Hoffberger ne vorbește despre spațiile oferite artiștilor neconvenționali și încă fără cotă la bursa artei. Cu toate acestea Muzeul s-a dovedit de la deschidere a fi un succes. Rapid a devenit un ”must see” al orașului. În fiecare an aici te întâmpină expoziții tematice inedite. Cea vizitată de noi era dedicată mâncării și evoluției obiceiurilor noastre legate de această necesitate; o istorie a ambalajelor, a mobilierului, a felului de a găti... Toate operele de artă aflate pe simeze erau produse din... preparate alimentare neperisabile. Fiecare lucrare era și un mic îndrumar științific. Tot ce are viață pe acest pământ se... alimentează iar deprinderile gastronomice ale lumii s-au dezvoltat după descoperirea lumii noi: Americile de Sud și Nord. Încălzirea globală, efectele asupra omului și naturii, impactul hranei devenită o armă redutabilă în războaie, care sunt secretele ce stau la baza hrănirii unei planete cu peste 7,4 miliarde de oameni, și multe alte subiecte au ”provocat” creativitatea artiștilor. Lucrările permanente din muzeu nu pot fi încadrate în curente. Piesele de referință sunt un Icarus cinetic (vezi coperta), care magnetizează privirile indiferent la care din cele 6 etaje te-ai afla. Balustrada scărilor dar și piesele din curtea muzeului, ne amintesc de alți doi vizionari - Gaudi și Picasso. Muzeul oferă nu doar expoziții temporare ci și conferințe, concerte, acces pentru organizarea de evenimente private sau corporatiste.\r\n\r\nÎn același concept se integrează și restaurantul muzeului (care firește, își asigură resursele materiale nu numai din biletul de intrare). ”Encantada” a devenit în scurt timp, prin creativitatea Maeștrilor bucătari inspirați de tradiție, o emblemă culinară a orașului. Este apreciat și pentru faptul că meniurile aferente sunt realizate din produsele achiziționate de la furnizori privați locali, ce practică o agricultură și zootehnie bio. Kitsch sau artă? Noi n-am întâlnit decât artă.\r\n\r\nDacă fantomele au recita poezii\r\n\r\nȘi pentru că merităm, ca să amintim de o reclamă încă în vogă, ne luăm și noi după turiștii înfometați. Și ne oprim în port, la unul dintre cele mai populare localuri, celebrul Phillips Seafood. Soarele începe să apună și în spectrul văpăilor de lumini care se topesc în ape, încercăm să înțelegem de ce este acest restaurant renumit în întreaga Americă pentru preparatele sale de crab. La crabi ajungem mai târziu când se aprind luminile teraselor dar mai ales după ce ai aprofundat lecția despre cum se mânuiesc ustensilele cu care vei desface și consuma carnea fragedă din interiorul crabului. Mai multe tinere te urmăresc și te corectează. Între timp vin ”aperitivele” - adică scoici, creveți, pui prăjit crocant, porumb copt, salate la pachet cu orchestra ce se lasă încet în lumina serii cu melodii dansante. Acum e momentul apariției crabilor copți (nu uitați că Baltimore e lider național la capitolul crabi albaștri și scoici), turnați pe mese din saci de hârtie. Măcelul, vorba vine, poate începe. Totul e eco și cu respect față de natură. Ne delectăm dar mai avem încă ceva important de făcut. Ne mână curiozitatea. Ce fantome bântuie orașul? Stafiile turiștilor obosiți nu se pun la socoteală. Locul de pierzanie și întâlnire se numește Fell’s Point, ticsit de baruri, răufăcători, păsări de noapte în căutarea unui posibil parteneriat, pirați și alte povești asezonate cu condimente turistice. Ghidul nostru pare coborât dintr-un asemenea scenariu. Cu barbă albă, costum negru, baston, pălărie, cu timbru profund și nuanțat ne-a purtat prin noaptea fantomelor care trec frecvent prin Fell’s Point. Fantome n-am întâlnit dar poveștile au curs en-gros. Desigur hitul serii a fost povestea lui Poe. A poetului Edgar Alann Poe care s-a stins din viață la Baltimore în 1849. Ghidul ne-a mobilizat în fața localului unde scriitorul obișnuia să-și petreacă serile și nopțile bând și citind din poeziile sale. Poate din ”Corbul”, ”Annabel Lee”, ”Un vis într-un vis” etc. După cum am constatat și azi locul este supraîncărcat de cultură și băutură, rămânând plin ochi până spre dimineață sub pălăria amintirilor lui Poe.\r\n\r\nAtracții turistice?

Record ce va fi doborât, cu siguranță, în 2018. Mai multe studii comunicate revistei noastre relevă că Bucureștiul sporește în atractivitate. Metropola și-a diversificat țintele turistice, categoriile de călători fiind foarte diverse. Iată ce au constatat reprezentanți ai industriei turistice locale dar și cercetătorii globali și europeni referitor la poziționarea Capitalei României.\r\n\r\n\r\nCe spun hotelierii ?\r\n\r\nMihai Acatrinei, unul dintre liderii Federației Industriei Hoteliere din România (FIHR) și manager al complexului Ramada Majestic din Capitală, este de părere că în ultimii ani, Bucureștiul a devenit un oraș turistic, iar gradul de ocupare pe vară al hotelurilor a crescut de 2-3 ori. ”În perioada 2009-2014, majoritatea hotelurilor din București trăiau exclusiv din turiștii de business. Gradul mediu de ocupare se ridica la aproximativ 50-60% în perioada de varf - septembrie, octombrie, noiembrie, iar în iulie și august scădea până pe la 20-30%. El a observat că în ultimii 3 ani lucrurile s-au schimbat, iar Bucureștiul a devenit atractiv pentru turiștii care vin pentru relaxare. Capitala este considerată o destinație sigură, în condițiile în care altele, mult mai atractive turistic, și-au pierdut acest avantaj. Și asta contează foarte mult”. Cum contează, de altfel, că piața tarifelor s-a flexibilizat. Hotelierii scad tarifele vara cu cel puțin 30%. În tot acest context, s-a ajuns ca hotelurile din Capitală să fie ocupate ”în proporție de peste 60% în lunile iulie și august, iar tendința este de creștere de la an la an cam cu 10%”, a mai precizat Acatrinei.\r\n\r\nCălin Ile, președintele FIHR, director reprezentativ al lanțului Ibis în România, observă că ”daca în urmă cu 5 ani doar 20% dintre străinii care înnoptau în hotelurile din Capitală erau turiști, restul fiind oameni de afaceri, acum ponderea celor veniți pentru vacanțe a crescut la 40%. Gradul de ocupare al hotelurilor a urcat în week-end la 60-65%, față de 40-45% în cu un deceniu. Evenimentele organizate in București și Centrul vechi, ca de exemplu Festivalul Luminilor, desfășurat de curând, dar mai ales aportul curselor low-cost care au contribuit la ieftinirea vacanțele, promovează Capitala ca oraș turistic comparabil cu altele din Europa”.\r\n\r\nMajoritatea călătorilor care ajung în București pleacă multumiți, pentru că găsesc aici lucruri mai bune decât cele la care se așteptau. Cei mai mulți vin din țările Europei de Vest. Majoritatea turiștilor străini sunt în general familii cu copii, din Israel, Franța, Italia sau Germania. Media sejurului lor este undeva, între 1,9 și 2,5 zile.\r\n\r\nCe spun cercetătorii ?\r\n\r\nConform portalului online weekenGO, Bucureștiul se numără în primele 100 de orașe din lume în care merită să-ți petreci sfârșitul de săptămână (Best Cities to Spend a Weekend).

Amintirea tatălui său, pictor și fotograf ce a imortalizat, ce intuiție, spațiul unei zone devenită istorie urbană: Dealul Cotrocenilor, Cartierul Uranus, dispărut la mijlocul anilor ’80. Așa s-a născut la Galeriile The Grand Avenue, ale Grand Hotel Marriott din București expoziția Salutări din Uranus! Este după cum au afirmat organizatorii, primul proiect interactiv ce-și dorește să reproducă atmosfera boemă a fostului cartier prin imagini reprezentantive, hărți exacte ale locurilor demolate, multe detalii și informații din respectiva zonă, colectate de un grup de entuziaști, grupați în jurul proiectului Cartierul Uranus. Este prima expoziție interactivă de fotografie și pictură, dedicată acestei zone legendare.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Traian-Badulescu-cu-mama-sa.jpg\")
\r\n\r\nVernisajul a scos la iveală în premieră un ”zăcământ” artistic inedit - fotografii, picturi și schițe realizate de Traian Bădulescu Sr. (1947-2006), artistul care a locuit mai bine de 34 de ani în cartierul amintit. Expoziția Salutări din Uranus! are o expunere de aproximativ o lună, iar vizitatorii au avut ocazia să se întrețină cu creatorii expoziției ce face parte dintr-un serial cu puternice trimiteri și spre spații turistice urbane.

Vârful de lance al echipei Off the Fence este producătoarea Allison Bean.Ea a lansat „România neîmblânzită” (Untamed Romania) , primul film documentar despre natura României care va putea fi vizionat în peste 70 de cinematografe din 37 de orașe. Suporterul și sponsorul principal nu este Ministerul Turismului ori al Mediului ci Auchan Retail România, unul dintre cei mai importanți retaileri de pe piața locală. Narat de Victor Rebengiuc, documentarul „România neîmblânzită” reprezintă o producție inedită, ce dezvăluie, în 90 de minute, frumusețea sălbatică a României. „De mai bine de 11 ani, Auchan realizează o serie de acțiuni de responsabilitate socială în beneficiul comunităților din România. Credem cu tărie că filmul poate reprezenta unul dintre cei mai buni ambasadori ai României. ”România neîmblânzită” este un dar oferit de Auchan și cei 10.000 de angajati ai companiei tuturor românilor” -, a declarat Ionuț Ardeleanu, Director General Auchan Retail România și producător executiv al filmului. Distribuția în cinematografe este asigurată de Transilvania Film, companie condusă de regizorul Tudor Giurgiu, care va organiza ulterior și o serie de proiecții în mai multe orașe. „România neîmblânzită”,va fi proiectat și peste hotare, la festivaluri de film din SUA și Marea Britanie el beneficiind și de o versiune internațională narată de actorul englez Mark Strong. Documentarul va fi distribuit atât în cadrul unor renumite festivaluri de film, cât și pe canale de televiziune. În același timp Auchan a anunțat că dorește ”să pună pelicula și la dispoziția instituțiilor ce răspund de turism și mediu, pentru a sprijini, în acest fel promovarea turistică a țării.”\r\n\r\nScenariul (care a presupus 400 de ore de filmări, pe parcursul unui an întreg cu peste 20 de cameramani, sute de voluntari și un buget de circa 4 milioane de euro) înfățișează natura țării, în funcție de cele patru anotimpuri în zone geografice ca Delta Dunării, Munții Carpați, Histria, râul Mureș, în total în 18 parcuri și situri naturale. Coloana sonoră este creația originală a compozitoarei britanice Nainita Desai, care locuiește la Londra. Ea a scris muzică pentru filme difuzate de BBC, ITV, Discovery Channel, HBO, National Geographic. De-a lungul anilor, a colaborat cu Werner Herzog, Bernardo Bertolucci, Peter Gabriel etc. Casa de producție Off the Fence este o companie britanică care din 1994 de când a intrat pe piață a primit 80 de premii internaționale, producțiile sale fiind distribuite de BBC, National Geographic, Discovery Channel, ARTE, ZDF etc. Co-inițiator și co-finanțator al filmului documentar a fost The European Nature Trust.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCONSTANȚA: Cazinoul e în...

Amintirea tatălui său, pictor și fotograf ce a imortalizat, ce intuiție, spațiul unei zone devenită istorie urbană: Dealul Cotrocenilor, Cartierul Uranus, dispărut la mijlocul anilor ’80. Așa s-a născut la Galeriile The Grand Avenue, ale Grand Hotel Marriott din București expoziția Salutări din Uranus! Este după cum au afirmat organizatorii, primul proiect interactiv ce-și dorește să reproducă atmosfera boemă a fostului cartier prin imagini reprezentantive, hărți exacte ale locurilor demolate, multe detalii și informații din respectiva zonă, colectate de un grup de entuziaști, grupați în jurul proiectului Cartierul Uranus. Este prima expoziție interactivă de fotografie și pictură, dedicată acestei zone legendare.\r\n\r\nVernisajul a scos la iveală în premieră un ”zăcământ” artistic inedit - fotografii, picturi și schițe realizate de Traian Bădulescu Sr. (1947-2006), artistul care a locuit mai bine de 34 de ani în cartierul amintit. Expoziția Salutări din Uranus! are o expunere de aproximativ o lună, iar vizitatorii au avut ocazia să se întrețină cu creatorii expoziției ce face parte dintr-un serial cu puternice trimiteri și spre spații turistice urbane.

Punându-mă în contact cu Europa Războiului Rece în următorii nouă ani, Skilling, mai mult decât oricine altcineva, m-a făcut să conștientizez pe deplin natura epocii în care mă născusem. Cartea lui m-a transformat în corespondent de presă, chiar dacă nu mă angajase nimeni.” Confortabilă, dar plină de necunoscute, a fost perspectiva din care Robert D. Kaplan a abordat spațiul Țărilor balcanice. ”În umbra Europei - Două războaie reci și trei decenii de călătorie prin România și dincolo de ea” este o carte care îți propune alte ”ancore” decât cele clasice pe care merită să le aprofundezi. Călătoriile spirituale și fizice ale lui Kaplan alcătuiesc un pachet în care istoria și politica se dovedesc elemente majore, nerepetabile, în viața românilor. Mircea cel Bătrân, Vlad Țepeș, Ștefan cel Mare, Mihai Viteazul, Alexandru Ioan Cuza, Familia Regală, Ion Antonescu, Mircea Eliade, Emil Cioran, Iuliu Maniu, Gheorghiu Dej, Nicolae și Elena Ceaușescu, Ion Iliescu, sunt o parte din personalitățile care au marcat destinele istoriei autohtone. Cum au făcut-o? Aici ni se oferă evaluări originale. ”În umbra Europei” (Editura Humanitas), ce conține observații fine făcute de un globetrotter politic, se citește pe nerăsuflate. Nu întâmplător Kaplan a fost și consilierul mai multor președinți, secretari de stat și miniștrii americani ai apărării.\n\n\n\n„Supereroii din farfurie”, pentru cei mici\n\nPrezentatoarea TV Anca Lungu, a lansat o nouă carte pentru copii, cu ilustraţii de Annabella Orosz și sfaturi pentru părinți de Alina-Nicoleta Balațchi. Curtea Veche propune prin „Supereroii din farfurie” un set de reţete care pot fi gătite împreună cu cei mici. Gătitul în familie poate da naştere unor experienţe magice!

Punându-mă în contact cu Europa Războiului Rece în următorii nouă ani, Skilling, mai mult decât oricine altcineva, m-a făcut să conștientizez pe deplin natura epocii în care mă născusem. Cartea lui m-a transformat în corespondent de presă, chiar dacă nu mă angajase nimeni.” Confortabilă, dar plină de necunoscute, a fost perspectiva din care Robert D. Kaplan a abordat spațiul Țărilor balcanice. ”În umbra Europei - Două războaie reci și trei decenii de călătorie prin România și dincolo de ea” este o carte care îți propune alte ”ancore” decât cele clasice pe care merită să le aprofundezi. Călătoriile spirituale și fizice ale lui Kaplan alcătuiesc un pachet în care istoria și politica se dovedesc elemente majore, nerepetabile, în viața românilor. Mircea cel Bătrân, Vlad Țepeș, Ștefan cel Mare, Mihai Viteazul, Alexandru Ioan Cuza, Familia Regală, Ion Antonescu, Mircea Eliade, Emil Cioran, Iuliu Maniu, Gheorghiu Dej, Nicolae și Elena Ceaușescu, Ion Iliescu, sunt o parte din personalitățile care au marcat destinele istoriei autohtone. Cum au făcut-o? Aici ni se oferă evaluări originale. ”În umbra Europei” (Editura Humanitas), ce conține observații fine făcute de un globetrotter politic, se citește pe nerăsuflate. Nu întâmplător Kaplan a fost și consilierul mai multor președinți, secretari de stat și miniștrii americani ai apărării.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n„Supereroii din farfurie”, pentru cei mici\r\n\r\nPrezentatoarea TV Anca Lungu, a lansat o nouă carte pentru copii, cu ilustraţii de Annabella Orosz și sfaturi pentru părinți de Alina-Nicoleta Balațchi. Curtea Veche propune prin „Supereroii din farfurie” un set de reţete care pot fi gătite împreună cu cei mici. Gătitul în familie poate da naştere unor experienţe magice! Micii pofticioşi vor învăţa lucruri noi, îşi vor dezvolta vocabularul, îndemânarea şi abilităţile de lucru în echipă şi vor deveni mai independenţi şi mai împliniţi.

Cum? Printr-o serie de tururi culturale inedite, reunite sub umbrela proiectului Castle Break. Aflat la a 6-a ediție, programul propune vizite la peste 20 de castele, palate, cule, curii sau conace, aducând mai aproape reședințele elitelor de altădată de cei care vor să le viziteze. Anul acesta, tururile culturale aduc în atenția publicului larg noi obiective de patrimoniu. Printre acestea se numără castelul baroc al familiei Bornemissza din Gurghiu, castelul Ugron din Zau de Câmpie, Castelul Bethlen din Racoș, Castelul Teleki din Uioara, Palatul Pleșia din Obârșia de Câmp și Palatul Reginei Maria din Balcic. Nu vor lipsi din itinerarii nici obiective „vedetă” ale proiectului Castle Break, precum Castelul Bánffy din Bonțida, Castelul Sturdza din Miclăuşeni sau Castelul Teleki din Gornești.\r\n\r\nÎn plus, în 2018, proiectul Castle Break va include un tur tematic dedicat oamenilor și organizațiilor care se implică în proiectele de salvgardare a patrimoniului. Intitulat, sugestiv, „Oamenii Patrimoniului”, turul are în program întâlniri cu antreprenori, arhitecți și alți actori implicați în revitalizarea patrimoniului cultural - ne-a precizat, reprezentanta Asociației, arhitectul Carmen Popa.

Toți provin din mediul de afaceri dar marea surpriză o constituie faptul că o parte din ei au venit din alte domenii decât din cel hotelier. Programul se derulează în cadrul Parteneriatului între ASE şi EHL, semnat ȋn 2017 la Lausanne de către Rectorul ASE, prof. univ. dr. Nicolae Istudor şi CEO al EHL, Prof. Michel Rochat.\r\n\r\nDespre acest program au vorbit în ȋn Aula Magna a ASE Rectorul Academiei, Excelența Sa Dl. Urs Herren, Ambasadorul Confederației Elvețiene în România, Prof.univ dr. Rodica Pamfilie, decanul Facultății de Business și Turism (din cadrul ASE). Despre experiențele practice și didactice trăite în timpul cursurilor au relatat CEO Lausanne Hospitality Consulting, domnul Yateendra Sinh, Directorul de Dezvoltare Lausanne Hospitality Consulting, prof. dr. Ray Iunius, Prof univ. Dr. Gabriela Țigu, director program de studii ASE, respectiv dl. Valentin Păuna, de la Metro Cash & Carry România (Metro Global fiind partener strategic al Școlii de la Lausanne). Practic Programul s-a derulat pe o durată totală de 198 de ore de formare în domeniul ospitalității și al industriei hoteliere, asigurate de specialiști de la Școala din Lausanne și ASE. Absolvenții au obținut un Certificat de atestare a competențelor profesionale, recunoscut de Ministerul Educației Naționale din România și un Certificat de Educație executivă eliberat de École Hôtelière de Lausanne. Merită să amintim că École Hôtelière de Lausanne, fondată în 1893, este prima de acest profil din lume, cu o mare contribuție la dezvoltarea turismului în Elveţia. Aceasta e considerată de către specialiști ca fiind cea mai performantă şcoală pentru formarea de directori și operatori în industria ospitalităţii.\r\n\r\nTRANSALPINA: Primul hotel care acceptă Bitcoin\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nRecent, Popasul Regelui a introdus posibilitatea de a achita serviciile de cazare şi masă prin criptomoneda Bitcoin. Astfel, hotelul devine prima unitate de cazare din România care acceptă această modalitate de plată. Hotelul este clasificat la 3 stele, are o capacitate de 50 de locuri, un restaurant cu 160 de locuri dar și o terasa cu 100 de locuri. În imediata apropiere se află renumita Stână a lu\' Ion, căutată de foarte mulți turiști dornici de a gusta preparatele tradiționale românești. “Dacă în trecut plățile se puteau efectua numai numerar, astăzi tot mai multă lume achită serviciile cu cardul dar au apărut și solicitări pentru varianta Bitcoin. Am fost surprins de numărul în creștere al acestor solicitări venite în special din partea turiștilor străini” - a declarat Traian Cornea, manager al Hotelului Popasul Regelui Transalpina.\r\n\r\n\r\nTIMIȘOARA: Ghici cine bate la ușă?\r\n\r\nAl patrulea Radisson Blu din România va fi construit în cartierul ISHO din Timșoara, deținut de investitorul Ovidiu Sandor. Hotelul, construit de compania Mulberry Development, va fi o componentă integrantă a proiectului imobiliar mixt ISHO, care cuprinde peste 1.000 de apartamente și 50.000 metrii pătrați de birouri. Unitatea va dispune de 160 de camere, un restaurant gastronomic, un bar concept, un spațiu de 1.000 de metri pătrați pentru socializare și un centru fitness. Construcția unității de cazare va fi finalizată în 2020 a anunțat The Rezidor Hotel Group. Portfoliul companiei internaționale în România va ajunge astfel la patru hoteluri, două în curs de operare și două în dezvoltare.\r\n\r\nBRAȘOV: Cifra 6 e norocoasă\r\n\r\nDupă doi ani de investiții grupul Ambient - care a împlinit 20 de ani de existență -, și-a adăugat în portofoliu ce-a de-a șasea unitate hotelieră.

Ideea magazinului de pe artera veche a fost pe cât de inedită pe atât de apreciată: ea a asortat ciocolata la o colecție de pantofi, la una de ciorapi multicolori, prilej de a sta pur și simplu la taclale cu gazda. ”Mă bucură că am deschis și afacerea cu ciorapi. Magazinul ne energizează atât pe mine cât și pe asociata mea, un spirit la fel de creativ. Mă bucură că asta se întâmplă aici la Baltimore” - ne spune doamna Siger. Succesul este garantat.\n\nLa întâlnire cu ”vedeta”\n\nCum spre ora prânzului aglomerația devine prea... turistică am optat pentru o croazieră prin Inner Harbor. De pe apă, clădirile orașului ni se desfășoară într-un ritm spectaculos: zgârie nori și Fort Mc Henry, podul emblematic Francis Scott Key Bridge, silueta fabricii istorice Domino Sugar, ambarcațiunile mici și mari, colorate și risipite toate în larg. Modernul centru de Informare turistică pune la dispoziție displayuri pentru orientare dar și pliante ori broșuri cu recomandări despre tot ce ai putea să vezi într-un sejur în Baltimore. Nimeni nu rezistă tentației de a vedea ”vedeta”, adică National Aquarium. Găzduiește peste 20.000 de vietăți care își duc traiul în habitaturi ”naturale”, concepute de către muzeografi și cercetători naturaliști. Multe dintre soluțiile tehnice aplicate au fost premiate pentru ingeniozitate. Plimbarea într-o pădure tropicală este egalată de cea printre pinguini, meduze și rechini uriași, pești colorați și somnoroși (cel mai vârstic fiind unul australian) etc. În toate secțiunile expoziționale ești asaltat de informații electronice plasate pe diferite suporturi dar și de demonstrațiile ghizilor exacți și amabili cu oferirea de detalii pe care le ține la secret... mama natură. La exteriorul Acvariului poți vizita submarine militare, corăbii ale piraților ce te invită în croazieră, și bineînțeles Centru de Informare Turistică (Visitors Bureau) de unde te mai poți alimenta cu noi broșuri (sunt disponibile circa 200) dar și un Oficiu Poștal. Organizarea modernă facilitează turistului o orientare confortabilă. Așa se explică de ce legiunile de turiști, intră și ies rapid de aici, excepție făcând doar cei care au devenit sclavii Wi-Fi, și nu pot trăi fără ”oxigenul” din internet.\n\nO viziune - hrana ca armă\n\nNe-am documentat și noi. Și am ajuns la concluzia că nu trebuie să ratăm American Visionary Art Museum, despre care unii colegi de breaslă de pe mapamond spuneau că este o instituție dedicată... kitschului. N-am fost singurii curioși, și asta am constatat după lungime cozii de la intrare.\n\nO gazdă deosebit de generoasă s-a dovedit a fi Rebecca Alban Hoffberger, fondatoarea instituției. Ce este American Visionary Art? Un muzeu? O galerie de artă? Un spațiu experimental? O expoziție inedită închinată alimentelor ce au marcat evoluția omenirii? Un restaurant de lux cu oferte organice apreciate? Probabil toate la un loc. Directoarea Hoffberger ne vorbește despre spațiile oferite artiștilor neconvenționali și încă fără cotă la bursa artei. Cu toate acestea Muzeul s-a dovedit de la deschidere a fi un succes. Rapid a devenit un ”must see” al orașului. În fiecare an aici te întâmpină expoziții tematice inedite. Cea vizitată de noi era dedicată mâncării și evoluției obiceiurilor noastre legate de această necesitate; o istorie a ambalajelor, a mobilierului, a felului de a găti...

Tot ce are viață pe acest pământ se... alimentează iar deprinderile gastronomice ale lumii s-au dezvoltat după descoperirea lumii noi: Americile de Sud și Nord. Încălzirea globală, efectele asupra omului și naturii, impactul hranei devenită o armă redutabilă în războaie, care sunt secretele ce stau la baza hrănirii unei planete cu peste 7,4 miliarde de oameni, și multe alte subiecte au ”provocat” creativitatea artiștilor. Lucrările permanente din muzeu nu pot fi încadrate în curente. Piesele de referință sunt un Icarus cinetic (vezi coperta), care magnetizează privirile indiferent la care din cele 6 etaje te-ai afla. Balustrada scărilor dar și piesele din curtea muzeului, ne amintesc de alți doi vizionari - Gaudi și Picasso.

Este apreciat și pentru faptul că meniurile aferente sunt realizate din produsele achiziționate de la furnizori privați locali, ce practică o agricultură și zootehnie bio. Kitsch sau artă? Noi n-am întâlnit decât artă.\n\nDacă fantomele au recita poezii\n\nȘi pentru că merităm, ca să amintim de o reclamă încă în vogă, ne luăm și noi după turiștii înfometați. Și ne oprim în port, la unul dintre cele mai populare localuri, celebrul Phillips Seafood. Soarele începe să apună și în spectrul văpăilor de lumini care se topesc în ape, încercăm să înțelegem de ce este acest restaurant renumit în întreaga Americă pentru preparatele sale de crab. La crabi ajungem mai târziu când se aprind luminile teraselor dar mai ales după ce ai aprofundat lecția despre cum se mânuiesc ustensilele cu care vei desface și consuma carnea fragedă din interiorul crabului.

Între timp vin ”aperitivele” - adică scoici, creveți, pui prăjit crocant, porumb copt, salate la pachet cu orchestra ce se lasă încet în lumina serii cu melodii dansante. Acum e momentul apariției crabilor copți (nu uitați că Baltimore e lider național la capitolul crabi albaștri și scoici), turnați pe mese din saci de hârtie. Măcelul, vorba vine, poate începe. Totul e eco și cu respect față de natură. Ne delectăm dar mai avem încă ceva important de făcut. Ne mână curiozitatea. Ce fantome bântuie orașul? Stafiile turiștilor obosiți nu se pun la socoteală. Locul de pierzanie și întâlnire se numește Fell’s Point, ticsit de baruri, răufăcători, păsări de noapte în căutarea unui posibil parteneriat, pirați și alte povești asezonate cu condimente turistice. Ghidul nostru pare coborât dintr-un asemenea scenariu. Cu barbă albă, costum negru, baston, pălărie, cu timbru profund și nuanțat ne-a purtat prin noaptea fantomelor care trec frecvent prin Fell’s Point. Fantome n-am întâlnit dar poveștile au curs en-gros. Desigur hitul serii a fost povestea lui Poe. A poetului Edgar Alann Poe care s-a stins din viață la Baltimore în 1849. Ghidul ne-a mobilizat în fața localului unde scriitorul obișnuia să-și petreacă serile și nopțile bând și citind din poeziile sale. Poate din ”Corbul”, ”Annabel Lee”, ”Un vis într-un vis” etc. După cum am constatat și azi locul este supraîncărcat de cultură și băutură, rămânând plin ochi până spre dimineață sub pălăria amintirilor lui Poe.\n\nAtracții turistice?

Conexiuni aeriene rapide, mai frecvente și cu prețuri low. Cazări OK pentru turiștii tineri și mobili. Mâncare și muzică bună. Sunt patru dintre motivele pentru care Bucureștiul este din ce în ce mai căutat de către vizitatorii străini.\n\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6471,6474,6472,6473,6475,6476\"]\n\nCirca 1,4 milioane au fost anul trecut în Capitală. Record ce va fi doborât, cu siguranță, în 2018. Mai multe studii comunicate revistei noastre relevă că Bucureștiul sporește în atractivitate. Metropola și-a diversificat țintele turistice, categoriile de călători fiind foarte diverse. Iată ce au constatat reprezentanți ai industriei turistice locale dar și cercetătorii globali și europeni referitor la poziționarea Capitalei României.\n\n\nCe spun hotelierii ?\n\nMihai Acatrinei, unul dintre liderii Federației Industriei Hoteliere din România (FIHR) și manager al complexului Ramada Majestic din Capitală, este de părere că în ultimii ani, Bucureștiul a devenit un oraș turistic, iar gradul de ocupare pe vară al hotelurilor a crescut de 2-3 ori. ”În perioada 2009-2014, majoritatea hotelurilor din București trăiau exclusiv din turiștii de business. Gradul mediu de ocupare se ridica la aproximativ 50-60% în perioada de varf - septembrie, octombrie, noiembrie, iar în iulie și august scădea până pe la 20-30%. El a observat că în ultimii 3 ani lucrurile s-au schimbat, iar Bucureștiul a devenit atractiv pentru turiștii care vin pentru relaxare. Capitala este considerată o destinație sigură, în condițiile în care altele, mult mai atractive turistic, și-au pierdut acest avantaj. Și asta contează foarte mult”. Cum contează, de altfel, că piața tarifelor s-a flexibilizat. Hotelierii scad tarifele vara cu cel puțin 30%. În tot acest context, s-a ajuns ca hotelurile din Capitală să fie ocupate ”în proporție de peste 60% în lunile iulie și august, iar tendința este de creștere de la an la an cam cu 10%”, a mai precizat Acatrinei.\n\nCălin Ile, președintele FIHR, director reprezentativ al lanțului Ibis în România, observă că ”daca în urmă cu 5 ani doar 20% dintre străinii care înnoptau în hotelurile din Capitală erau turiști, restul fiind oameni de afaceri, acum ponderea celor veniți pentru vacanțe a crescut la 40%. Gradul de ocupare al hotelurilor a urcat în week-end la 60-65%, față de 40-45% în cu un deceniu. Evenimentele organizate in București și Centrul vechi, ca de exemplu Festivalul Luminilor, desfășurat de curând, dar mai ales aportul curselor low-cost care au contribuit la ieftinirea vacanțele, promovează Capitala ca oraș turistic comparabil cu altele din Europa”.\n\nMajoritatea călătorilor care ajung în București pleacă multumiți, pentru că găsesc aici lucruri mai bune decât cele la care se așteptau. Cei mai mulți vin din țările Europei de Vest. Majoritatea turiștilor străini sunt în general familii cu copii, din Israel, Franța, Italia sau Germania. Media sejurului lor este undeva, între 1,9 și 2,5 zile.\n\nCe spun cercetătorii ?\n\nConform portalului online weekenGO, Bucureștiul se numără în primele 100 de orașe din lume în care merită să-ți petreci sfârșitul de săptămână (Best Cities to Spend a Weekend). El se află în poziția 83. Topul alcătuit recomandă respectivele destinații ca locul ideale pentru millennials, familii și generațiile baby boomers. În urma analizei datelor din sondaje - au fost chestionați locuitori și turiști din peste 1000 de orașe din întreaga lume -, s-au clasat pe locul 1 Berlin, destinație recomandată millennials, Viena, ideală pentru turismul de familie în weekend, respectiv Zurich, pentru baby boomers. Studiul a luat în calcul și comparat, accesibilitatea ajungerii la destinație, cât de ușor poți călătorii în oraș, cât de rapid poți efectua rezervări la hoteluri, cât de generoase sunt parcurile și zonele verzi care încadrează orașele etc. Agendele culturale, concertele, teatrele, sălile de cinema, accesibilitatea muzeelor, a expozițiilor precum și atitudinile prietenoase ale locuitorilor - a precizat Tobias Boese, co-fondator al weekenGO. Sinteza completă o găsiți la adresa: www.weekengo.com/en-EN/study/100-top-destinations-to-spend-a-weekend.html\n\nO altă proiecție aparține Nestpick ce s-a bazat pe 17 criterii de evaluare. Astfel a fost alcătuit un top cu 110 orașe recomandate millennials pentru a trăi, muncii și călătorii. Bucureștiul se află pe locul 98, cu atracții în creștere, cu oferte stimulatoare pentru lansări în carieră, cu prețuri de cazare accesibile, cu o viață de noapte relaxantă, cu toleranță adecvată față de fenomenul migrației etc. Cel mai bun oraș a fost declarat în acest an Berlin. Cea mai bine cotată țară în acest top este Canada, care are trei orașe clasate în Top 10. ”Trebuie să ne adaptăm la nevoile generațiilor tinere. Să realizăm o economie flexibilă, prosperă care să permită generației millennials să regenereze spațiile urbane dar și dinamica demografică. De aceea dorim să oferim prin aceste analize informații și oportunități pe baza cărora tinerii să ia decizii eficiente pentru orientarea în viață - a afirmat un oficial al Nestpick. Raportul complet poate fi citit pe: https://www.nestpick.com/millennial-city-ranking-2018\n\nConform unei alte cercetări, finalizată în primul trimestru al acestui an de către The Economist Intelligence Unit, Bucureştiul se situează pe locul 9 în Top 10 al celor ieftine orașe din lume. El este singurul oraş din Europa care apare în clasament. Configurația clasamentului aduce în prim plan localități precum Damasc, Caracas, Almaty, Lagos, Bangalore, Karachi, Alger, Chennai, iar în poziția 10, New Dehli.

Sunt patru dintre motivele pentru care Bucureștiul este din ce în ce mai căutat de către vizitatorii străini.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6471,6474,6472,6473,6475,6476\"]\r\n\r\nCirca 1,4 milioane au fost anul trecut în Capitală. Record ce va fi doborât, cu siguranță, în 2018. Mai multe studii comunicate revistei noastre relevă că Bucureștiul sporește în atractivitate. Metropola și-a diversificat țintele turistice, categoriile de călători fiind foarte diverse. Iată ce au constatat reprezentanți ai industriei turistice locale dar și cercetătorii globali și europeni referitor la poziționarea Capitalei României.\r\n\r\n\r\nCe spun hotelierii ?\r\n\r\nMihai Acatrinei, unul dintre liderii Federației Industriei Hoteliere din România (FIHR) și manager al complexului Ramada Majestic din Capitală, este de părere că în ultimii ani, Bucureștiul a devenit un oraș turistic, iar gradul de ocupare pe vară al hotelurilor a crescut de 2-3 ori. ”În perioada 2009-2014, majoritatea hotelurilor din București trăiau exclusiv din turiștii de business. Gradul mediu de ocupare se ridica la aproximativ 50-60% în perioada de varf - septembrie, octombrie, noiembrie, iar în iulie și august scădea până pe la 20-30%. El a observat că în ultimii 3 ani lucrurile s-au schimbat, iar Bucureștiul a devenit atractiv pentru turiștii care vin pentru relaxare. Capitala este considerată o destinație sigură, în condițiile în care altele, mult mai atractive turistic, și-au pierdut acest avantaj. Și asta contează foarte mult”. Cum contează, de altfel, că piața tarifelor s-a flexibilizat. Hotelierii scad tarifele vara cu cel puțin 30%. În tot acest context, s-a ajuns ca hotelurile din Capitală să fie ocupate ”în proporție de peste 60% în lunile iulie și august, iar tendința este de creștere de la an la an cam cu 10%”, a mai precizat Acatrinei.\r\n\r\nCălin Ile, președintele FIHR, director reprezentativ al lanțului Ibis în România, observă că ”daca în urmă cu 5 ani doar 20% dintre străinii care înnoptau în hotelurile din Capitală erau turiști, restul fiind oameni de afaceri, acum ponderea celor veniți pentru vacanțe a crescut la 40%. Gradul de ocupare al hotelurilor a urcat în week-end la 60-65%, față de 40-45% în cu un deceniu. Evenimentele organizate in București și Centrul vechi, ca de exemplu Festivalul Luminilor, desfășurat de curând, dar mai ales aportul curselor low-cost care au contribuit la ieftinirea vacanțele, promovează Capitala ca oraș turistic comparabil cu altele din Europa”.\r\n\r\nMajoritatea călătorilor care ajung în București pleacă multumiți, pentru că găsesc aici lucruri mai bune decât cele la care se așteptau. Cei mai mulți vin din țările Europei de Vest. Majoritatea turiștilor străini sunt în general familii cu copii, din Israel, Franța, Italia sau Germania. Media sejurului lor este undeva, între 1,9 și 2,5 zile.\r\n\r\nCe spun cercetătorii ?\r\n\r\nConform portalului online weekenGO, Bucureștiul se numără în primele 100 de orașe din lume în care merită să-ți petreci sfârșitul de săptămână (Best Cities to Spend a Weekend). El se află în poziția 83. Topul alcătuit recomandă respectivele destinații ca locul ideale pentru millennials, familii și generațiile baby boomers. În urma analizei datelor din sondaje - au fost chestionați locuitori și turiști din peste 1000 de orașe din întreaga lume -, s-au clasat pe locul 1 Berlin, destinație recomandată millennials, Viena, ideală pentru turismul de familie în weekend, respectiv Zurich, pentru baby boomers. Studiul a luat în calcul și comparat, accesibilitatea ajungerii la destinație, cât de ușor poți călătorii în oraș, cât de rapid poți efectua rezervări la hoteluri, cât de generoase sunt parcurile și zonele verzi care încadrează orașele etc. Agendele culturale, concertele, teatrele, sălile de cinema, accesibilitatea muzeelor, a expozițiilor precum și atitudinile prietenoase ale locuitorilor - a precizat Tobias Boese, co-fondator al weekenGO.

Astfel a fost alcătuit un top cu 110 orașe recomandate millennials pentru a trăi, muncii și călătorii. Bucureștiul se află pe locul 98, cu atracții în creștere, cu oferte stimulatoare pentru lansări în carieră, cu prețuri de cazare accesibile, cu o viață de noapte relaxantă, cu toleranță adecvată față de fenomenul migrației etc. Cel mai bun oraș a fost declarat în acest an Berlin. Cea mai bine cotată țară în acest top este Canada, care are trei orașe clasate în Top 10. ”Trebuie să ne adaptăm la nevoile generațiilor tinere. Să realizăm o economie flexibilă, prosperă care să permită generației millennials să regenereze spațiile urbane dar și dinamica demografică. De aceea dorim să oferim prin aceste analize informații și oportunități pe baza cărora tinerii să ia decizii eficiente pentru orientarea în viață - a afirmat un oficial al Nestpick.

Ambient a ajuns la 6 iar bunicul Herdan trage cu ochiul la Corinthia.\r\n\r\nBUCUREȘTI: Accor lansează și ibis Styles\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nLa jumătatea acestui an va intra în oferta Capitalei primul hotel ibis Styles. Cu 96 camere, un restaurant, un bar, precum și o sală de conferințe el valorifică structura fostului hotel Erbașu investiție a firmei Construcții Erbașu S.A. Extinderea Orbis Hotel Group, partenerul în Europa de Est al AccorHotels s-a făcut prin semnarea unui contract de management.\r\n\r\nLaurent Picheral, CEO Hotel Services, responsabil de Germania, Polonia, Țările baltice, Europa Centrală, Scandinavia și Balcani -, a subliniat că Accor Hotels, care operează prin intermediul partenerului polonez Orbis 7 hoteluri din România, intenționează să își dubleze în următorii ani unitățile deținute în România. Primul pas a fost făcut de curând la Arad unde a fost inaugurat primul ibis Styles din România, în parteneriat cu FAB Industry.\r\n\r\nUnitatea, cu 72 de camere (dintre care 6 apartamente), este una tip boutique, cu un design special, în categoria „chic economy”, la tarife all-inclusive. „Ținta noastră este să ajungem la cel puțin 20 de hoteluri în România, dar nu pot da un termen la care acest obiectiv se va concretiza. Trebuie să analizăm ce branduri și ce dimensiune vor avea hotelurile astfel încât să se potrivească pieței locale. Analizăm și alte oportunități pentru a vedea ce alte mărci din familia Fairmont ori Swissotel s-ar putea armoniza profitabil în România” - a mai declarat Picheral.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nBOULEVARD ar putea trece la lux\r\n\r\nDupă ce a trecut prin mai multe etape de modernizare ce vizau amenajarea unor spații de birouri combinate cu facilități hoteliere Grand Hotel du Boulevard, unul dintre cele mai vechi hoteluri din Bucuresti, va rămâne la prima sa vocație. Clădirea a fost construită începând cu anul 1867 și poartă semnătura arhitectului Alexandru Orăscu, căruia în aparține și proiectarea edificiului Universității București. Hotelul s-a deschis în 1873, sub numele de Hotel Herdan, iar din 1877 a funcționat cu câteva întreruperi sub brandul Grand Hotel du Boulevard.\r\n\r\nConform unor surse confirmate, acesta va fi transformat în hotel de lux de 5 stele, va oferi 60-70 de camere și va fi afiliat lanțului hotelier Corinthia. Managementul va fi operat pe baza unui contract de franciză. În clădirea Boulevard au fost investite până acum de către omul de afaceri Nicolae Dumitru, care deține și grupul Niro -, 15 milioane de euro. După cum s-a anunțat ceremonia oficială de semnare a parteneriatului în prezenţa reprezentanţilor Corinthia Hotels, NIRO Investement Group şi Beaufort Global Partners va avea loc pe 10 mai 2018, de Ziua Monarhiei Române, dată istorică importantă pentru poporul român.

Organizat în comun de Academia de Studii Economice din București (ASE) și École Hôtelière de Lausanne (EHL) - cea mai prestigioasă şcoală din lume în domeniul turismului şi ospitalităţii el are deja, din luna aprilie, o primă promoție de absolvenți. Toți provin din mediul de afaceri dar marea surpriză o constituie faptul că o parte din ei au venit din alte domenii decât din cel hotelier. Programul se derulează în cadrul Parteneriatului între ASE şi EHL, semnat ȋn 2017 la Lausanne de către Rectorul ASE, prof. univ. dr. Nicolae Istudor şi CEO al EHL, Prof. Michel Rochat.\r\n\r\nDespre acest program au vorbit în ȋn Aula Magna a ASE Rectorul Academiei, Excelența Sa Dl. Urs Herren, Ambasadorul Confederației Elvețiene în România, Prof.univ dr. Rodica Pamfilie, decanul Facultății de Business și Turism (din cadrul ASE). Despre experiențele practice și didactice trăite în timpul cursurilor au relatat CEO Lausanne Hospitality Consulting, domnul Yateendra Sinh, Directorul de Dezvoltare Lausanne Hospitality Consulting, prof. dr. Ray Iunius, Prof univ. Dr. Gabriela Țigu, director program de studii ASE, respectiv dl. Valentin Păuna, de la Metro Cash & Carry România (Metro Global fiind partener strategic al Școlii de la Lausanne). Practic Programul s-a derulat pe o durată totală de 198 de ore de formare în domeniul ospitalității și al industriei hoteliere, asigurate de specialiști de la Școala din Lausanne și ASE. Absolvenții au obținut un Certificat de atestare a competențelor profesionale, recunoscut de Ministerul Educației Naționale din România și un Certificat de Educație executivă eliberat de École Hôtelière de Lausanne. Merită să amintim că École Hôtelière de Lausanne, fondată în 1893, este prima de acest profil din lume, cu o mare contribuție la dezvoltarea turismului în Elveţia. Aceasta e considerată de către specialiști ca fiind cea mai performantă şcoală pentru formarea de directori și operatori în industria ospitalităţii.\r\n\r\nTRANSALPINA: Primul hotel care acceptă Bitcoin\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nRecent, Popasul Regelui a introdus posibilitatea de a achita serviciile de cazare şi masă prin criptomoneda Bitcoin. Astfel, hotelul devine prima unitate de cazare din România care acceptă această modalitate de plată. Hotelul este clasificat la 3 stele, are o capacitate de 50 de locuri, un restaurant cu 160 de locuri dar și o terasa cu 100 de locuri. În imediata apropiere se află renumita Stână a lu\' Ion, căutată de foarte mulți turiști dornici de a gusta preparatele tradiționale românești. “Dacă în trecut plățile se puteau efectua numai numerar, astăzi tot mai multă lume achită serviciile cu cardul dar au apărut și solicitări pentru varianta Bitcoin. Am fost surprins de numărul în creștere al acestor solicitări venite în special din partea turiștilor străini” - a declarat Traian Cornea, manager al Hotelului Popasul Regelui Transalpina.\r\n\r\n\r\nTIMIȘOARA: Ghici cine bate la ușă?\r\n\r\nAl patrulea Radisson Blu din România va fi construit în cartierul ISHO din Timșoara, deținut de investitorul Ovidiu Sandor. Hotelul, construit de compania Mulberry Development, va fi o componentă integrantă a proiectului imobiliar mixt ISHO, care cuprinde peste 1.000 de apartamente și 50.000 metrii pătrați de birouri. Unitatea va dispune de 160 de camere, un restaurant gastronomic, un bar concept, un spațiu de 1.000 de metri pătrați pentru socializare și un centru fitness. Construcția unității de cazare va fi finalizată în 2020 a anunțat The Rezidor Hotel Group. Portfoliul companiei internaționale în România va ajunge astfel la patru hoteluri, două în curs de operare și două în dezvoltare.\r\n\r\nBRAȘOV: Cifra 6 e norocoasă\r\n\r\nDupă doi ani de investiții grupul Ambient - care a împlinit 20 de ani de existență -, și-a adăugat în portofoliu ce-a de-a șasea unitate hotelieră. Resort Ambient – Your 5 star Hotel & Event Venue, este amplasată în localitatea Cristian (Județul Brașov) în imediata apropiere a Conacului Ambient.

Amintirea tatălui său, pictor și fotograf ce a imortalizat, ce intuiție, spațiul unei zone devenită istorie urbană: Dealul Cotrocenilor, Cartierul Uranus, dispărut la mijlocul anilor ’80. Așa s-a născut la Galeriile The Grand Avenue, ale Grand Hotel Marriott din București expoziția Salutări din Uranus! Este după cum au afirmat organizatorii, primul proiect interactiv ce-și dorește să reproducă atmosfera boemă a fostului cartier prin imagini reprezentantive, hărți exacte ale locurilor demolate, multe detalii și informații din respectiva zonă, colectate de un grup de entuziaști, grupați în jurul proiectului Cartierul Uranus. Este prima expoziție interactivă de fotografie și pictură, dedicată acestei zone legendare.\n\n\n\nVernisajul a scos la iveală în premieră un ”zăcământ” artistic inedit - fotografii, picturi și schițe realizate de Traian Bădulescu Sr. (1947-2006), artistul care a locuit mai bine de 34 de ani în cartierul amintit. Expoziția Salutări din Uranus! are o expunere de aproximativ o lună, iar vizitatorii au avut ocazia să se întrețină cu creatorii expoziției ce face parte dintr-un serial cu puternice trimiteri și spre spații turistice urbane. Salutări din Uranus! este al treilea proiect din Conceptul cultural The Grand Heritage, după Autenticitate și Tradiție - un eveniment desfășurat la finalul lui 2017, destinat artei populare românești, și galeria pop-art a artistului bucureștean Ovidiu Solcan, găzduită și ea tot de galeria comercială The Grand Avenue. Conceptul amintit încurajează arta și originalitatea ca fiind parte a expresiei poporului român, mai ales acum, în Anul Centenarului, moment de regăsire a identității naționale. În esență, Salutări din Uranus! este o formă de apreciere și de recunoaștere a istoriei zonei în care se află, în prezent, clădirea complexului hotelier, în fața căreia a fost relocat Monumentul Eroilor Pompieri, un simbol al cartierului Uranus.\n\n\n\n\n\nM.CONSTANTINESCU\n\nUN SUCCES - ”România neâmblânzită”\n\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6484,6485,6486,6487\"]\n\nDupă Charlie Ottley (Wild Carpathia) , Peter Hurley (Aleg Romania), iată că a apărut al treilea val de producători britanici fascinați de frumusețile sălbatice ale țării noastre. Vârful de lance al echipei Off the Fence este producătoarea Allison Bean.Ea a lansat „România neîmblânzită” (Untamed Romania) , primul film documentar despre natura României care va putea fi vizionat în peste 70 de cinematografe din 37 de orașe. Suporterul și sponsorul principal nu este Ministerul Turismului ori al Mediului ci Auchan Retail România, unul dintre cei mai importanți retaileri de pe piața locală. Narat de Victor Rebengiuc, documentarul „România neîmblânzită” reprezintă o producție inedită, ce dezvăluie, în 90 de minute, frumusețea sălbatică a României. „De mai bine de 11 ani, Auchan realizează o serie de acțiuni de responsabilitate socială în beneficiul comunităților din România. Credem cu tărie că filmul poate reprezenta unul dintre cei mai buni ambasadori ai României. ”România neîmblânzită” este un dar oferit de Auchan și cei 10.000 de angajati ai companiei tuturor românilor” -, a declarat Ionuț Ardeleanu, Director General Auchan Retail România și producător executiv al filmului. Distribuția în cinematografe este asigurată de Transilvania Film, companie condusă de regizorul Tudor Giurgiu, care va organiza ulterior și o serie de proiecții în mai multe orașe. „România neîmblânzită”,va fi proiectat și peste hotare, la festivaluri de film din SUA și Marea Britanie el beneficiind și de o versiune internațională narată de actorul englez Mark Strong. Documentarul va fi distribuit atât în cadrul unor renumite festivaluri de film, cât și pe canale de televiziune. În același timp Auchan a anunțat că dorește ”să pună pelicula și la dispoziția instituțiilor ce răspund de turism și mediu, pentru a sprijini, în acest fel promovarea turistică a țării.”\n\nScenariul (care a presupus 400 de ore de filmări, pe parcursul unui an întreg cu peste 20 de cameramani, sute de voluntari și un buget de circa 4 milioane de euro) înfățișează natura țării, în funcție de cele patru anotimpuri în zone geografice ca Delta Dunării, Munții Carpați, Histria, râul Mureș, în total în 18 parcuri și situri naturale. Coloana sonoră este creația originală a compozitoarei britanice Nainita Desai, care locuiește la Londra. Ea a scris muzică pentru filme difuzate de BBC, ITV, Discovery Channel, HBO, National Geographic. De-a lungul anilor, a colaborat cu Werner Herzog, Bernardo Bertolucci, Peter Gabriel etc. Casa de producție Off the Fence este o companie britanică care din 1994 de când a intrat pe piață a primit 80 de premii internaționale, producțiile sale fiind distribuite de BBC, National Geographic, Discovery Channel, ARTE, ZDF etc. Co-inițiator și co-finanțator al filmului documentar a fost The European Nature Trust.\n\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\n\n \n\nCONSTANȚA: Cazinoul e în... TOP 7\n\n\n\nEuropa Nostra, principala organizație de patrimoniu din Europa, și Institutul Băncii Europene de Investiții a anunțat care sunt cele mai afectate situri din Europa în 2018. Din lista finală cu 12 obiective au fost alese ”Cele mai periclitate 7 situri din Europa”. Au fost nominalizate Bisericile post-bizantine din Moscopole și Vithkuq, Albania; Centrul istoric din Viena, Austria; Monumentul Buzludja, Bulgaria; Mănăstirile și schitul David Gareji, Georgia; Cazinoul din Constanța, România (nominalizat de Asociația ARCHÉ); Orfelinatul grec Prinkipo, Insula Prinților, Turcia, și Fabrica de gheață Grimsby, Marea Britanie.\n\n\n\nAceste comori ale patrimoniului cultural european sunt în mare pericol, unele din cauza neglijenței, a lipsei de expertize sau resurse. Echipele pluridisciplinare vor oferi în următoarele luni recomandări tehnice, vor identifica posibile surse de finanțare și vor mobiliza sprijin pentru salvarea acestor repere culturale. Noua listă a Celor mai periclitate 7 situri este anunțată în timpul Anului European al Patrimoniului Cultural. Maestrul Plácido Domingo, Președintele Europa Nostra, a afirmat: „Comunitățile locale sunt profund angajate în păstrarea acestor importante exemple ale patrimoniului nostru comun, dar au nevoie de un sprijin european mai cuprinzător. Fac, așadar, apel către părțile interesate, atât publice, cât și private, de la nivel local, regional, național și european, să își unească forțele pentru a asigura un viitor viabil pentru aceste situri.” Programul a fost lansat în ianuarie 2013 de către Europa Nostra, cu sprijinul Institutul Băncii Europene de Investiții, în calitate de partener fondator. El a fost inspirat de succesul unui proiect similar desfășurat de Fondul Național pentru Conservare Istorică din SUA (US National Trust for Historical Preservation). „Cele mai periclitate 7 situri” nu este un program de finanțare. Scopul său este de a servi drept catalizator pentru acțiune și pentru a promova puterea exemplului. Dar acesta beneficiază de sprijinul programului UE „Europa Creativă”, ca parte a programului Europa Nostra „Patrimoniul nostru – valorile noastre”.\n\nCazinoul din Constanța a fost susținut la această candidatură de Asociația ARCHE, care are satisfacția de a fi reușit să sensibilizeze factori de decizie importanți.

Amintirea tatălui său, pictor și fotograf ce a imortalizat, ce intuiție, spațiul unei zone devenită istorie urbană: Dealul Cotrocenilor, Cartierul Uranus, dispărut la mijlocul anilor ’80. Așa s-a născut la Galeriile The Grand Avenue, ale Grand Hotel Marriott din București expoziția Salutări din Uranus! Este după cum au afirmat organizatorii, primul proiect interactiv ce-și dorește să reproducă atmosfera boemă a fostului cartier prin imagini reprezentantive, hărți exacte ale locurilor demolate, multe detalii și informații din respectiva zonă, colectate de un grup de entuziaști, grupați în jurul proiectului Cartierul Uranus. Este prima expoziție interactivă de fotografie și pictură, dedicată acestei zone legendare.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nVernisajul a scos la iveală în premieră un ”zăcământ” artistic inedit - fotografii, picturi și schițe realizate de Traian Bădulescu Sr. (1947-2006), artistul care a locuit mai bine de 34 de ani în cartierul amintit. Expoziția Salutări din Uranus! are o expunere de aproximativ o lună, iar vizitatorii au avut ocazia să se întrețină cu creatorii expoziției ce face parte dintr-un serial cu puternice trimiteri și spre spații turistice urbane. Salutări din Uranus! este al treilea proiect din Conceptul cultural The Grand Heritage, după Autenticitate și Tradiție - un eveniment desfășurat la finalul lui 2017, destinat artei populare românești, și galeria pop-art a artistului bucureștean Ovidiu Solcan, găzduită și ea tot de galeria comercială The Grand Avenue. Conceptul amintit încurajează arta și originalitatea ca fiind parte a expresiei poporului român, mai ales acum, în Anul Centenarului, moment de regăsire a identității naționale. În esență, Salutări din Uranus! este o formă de apreciere și de recunoaștere a istoriei zonei în care se află, în prezent, clădirea complexului hotelier, în fața căreia a fost relocat Monumentul Eroilor Pompieri, un simbol al cartierului Uranus.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nM.CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nUN SUCCES - ”România neâmblânzită”\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6484,6485,6486,6487\"]\r\n\r\nDupă Charlie Ottley (Wild Carpathia) , Peter Hurley (Aleg Romania), iată că a apărut al treilea val de producători britanici fascinați de frumusețile sălbatice ale țării noastre. Vârful de lance al echipei Off the Fence este producătoarea Allison Bean.Ea a lansat „România neîmblânzită” (Untamed Romania) , primul film documentar despre natura României care va putea fi vizionat în peste 70 de cinematografe din 37 de orașe. Suporterul și sponsorul principal nu este Ministerul Turismului ori al Mediului ci Auchan Retail România, unul dintre cei mai importanți retaileri de pe piața locală. Narat de Victor Rebengiuc, documentarul „România neîmblânzită” reprezintă o producție inedită, ce dezvăluie, în 90 de minute, frumusețea sălbatică a României. „De mai bine de 11 ani, Auchan realizează o serie de acțiuni de responsabilitate socială în beneficiul comunităților din România. Credem cu tărie că filmul poate reprezenta unul dintre cei mai buni ambasadori ai României. ”România neîmblânzită” este un dar oferit de Auchan și cei 10.000 de angajati ai companiei tuturor românilor” -, a declarat Ionuț Ardeleanu, Director General Auchan Retail România și producător executiv al filmului. Distribuția în cinematografe este asigurată de Transilvania Film, companie condusă de regizorul Tudor Giurgiu, care va organiza ulterior și o serie de proiecții în mai multe orașe. „România neîmblânzită”,va fi proiectat și peste hotare, la festivaluri de film din SUA și Marea Britanie el beneficiind și de o versiune internațională narată de actorul englez Mark Strong. Documentarul va fi distribuit atât în cadrul unor renumite festivaluri de film, cât și pe canale de televiziune. În același timp Auchan a anunțat că dorește ”să pună pelicula și la dispoziția instituțiilor ce răspund de turism și mediu, pentru a sprijini, în acest fel promovarea turistică a țării.”\r\n\r\nScenariul (care a presupus 400 de ore de filmări, pe parcursul unui an întreg cu peste 20 de cameramani, sute de voluntari și un buget de circa 4 milioane de euro) înfățișează natura țării, în funcție de cele patru anotimpuri în zone geografice ca Delta Dunării, Munții Carpați, Histria, râul Mureș, în total în 18 parcuri și situri naturale. Coloana sonoră este creația originală a compozitoarei britanice Nainita Desai, care locuiește la Londra. Ea a scris muzică pentru filme difuzate de BBC, ITV, Discovery Channel, HBO, National Geographic. De-a lungul anilor, a colaborat cu Werner Herzog, Bernardo Bertolucci, Peter Gabriel etc. Casa de producție Off the Fence este o companie britanică care din 1994 de când a intrat pe piață a primit 80 de premii internaționale, producțiile sale fiind distribuite de BBC, National Geographic, Discovery Channel, ARTE, ZDF etc. Co-inițiator și co-finanțator al filmului documentar a fost The European Nature Trust.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCONSTANȚA: Cazinoul e în... TOP 7\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nEuropa Nostra, principala organizație de patrimoniu din Europa, și Institutul Băncii Europene de Investiții a anunțat care sunt cele mai afectate situri din Europa în 2018. Din lista finală cu 12 obiective au fost alese ”Cele mai periclitate 7 situri din Europa”. Au fost nominalizate Bisericile post-bizantine din Moscopole și Vithkuq, Albania; Centrul istoric din Viena, Austria; Monumentul Buzludja, Bulgaria; Mănăstirile și schitul David Gareji, Georgia; Cazinoul din Constanța, România (nominalizat de Asociația ARCHÉ); Orfelinatul grec Prinkipo, Insula Prinților, Turcia, și Fabrica de gheață Grimsby, Marea Britanie.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAceste comori ale patrimoniului cultural european sunt în mare pericol, unele din cauza neglijenței, a lipsei de expertize sau resurse. Echipele pluridisciplinare vor oferi în următoarele luni recomandări tehnice, vor identifica posibile surse de finanțare și vor mobiliza sprijin pentru salvarea acestor repere culturale. Noua listă a Celor mai periclitate 7 situri este anunțată în timpul Anului European al Patrimoniului Cultural. Maestrul Plácido Domingo, Președintele Europa Nostra, a afirmat: „Comunitățile locale sunt profund angajate în păstrarea acestor importante exemple ale patrimoniului nostru comun, dar au nevoie de un sprijin european mai cuprinzător. Fac, așadar, apel către părțile interesate, atât publice, cât și private, de la nivel local, regional, național și european, să își unească forțele pentru a asigura un viitor viabil pentru aceste situri.” Programul a fost lansat în ianuarie 2013 de către Europa Nostra, cu sprijinul Institutul Băncii Europene de Investiții, în calitate de partener fondator. El a fost inspirat de succesul unui proiect similar desfășurat de Fondul Național pentru Conservare Istorică din SUA (US National Trust for Historical Preservation). „Cele mai periclitate 7 situri” nu este un program de finanțare. Scopul său este de a servi drept catalizator pentru acțiune și pentru a promova puterea exemplului. Dar acesta beneficiază de sprijinul programului UE „Europa Creativă”, ca parte a programului Europa Nostra „Patrimoniul nostru – valorile noastre”.\r\n\r\nCazinoul din Constanța a fost susținut la această candidatură de Asociația ARCHE, care are satisfacția de a fi reușit să sensibilizeze factori de decizie importanți. Ei vor putea influența reconstrucția și redarea în circuitul cultural-turistic, a acestui obiectiv arhitectural emblematic pentru istoria orașulului Constanța dar și pentru România. Edificiul și-a deschis porțile în 1910.

Tourism is the EU’s third largest socio-economic activity – it represents almost 10% of EU GDP and supports 25 million jobs. By rewarding exemplary practices of smart tourism, the European Union seeks to encourage innovation at the level of tourism destinations, culturally diverse and inclusive tourism offers and highlight the multi-faceted contribution of tourism to sustainable development.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nTwo European cities that demonstrate innovation, creativity and excellence in four categories - accessibility, sustainability, digitalization, cultural heritage and creativity - will be awarded the title of European Capital of Smart Tourism 2019.The awarded achievements will be presented in a special exhibition on the occasion of a prestigious Award Ceremony in Brussels on 7 November 2018, organized on the European Tourism Day.\r\n\r\nBucharest: Accor opens ibis Styles\r\n\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_6428\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"1024\"] http://www.accorhotels.com/9411[/caption]\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nThe capital City of Romania will see in 2018 the opening of the first ibis Styles Hotel.

Dacă le-ați văzut pe toate merită să vă îndreptați spre două insule ”crude”. Spre ambele puteți ajunge cu ferryboat-ul din Alexandropolis, respectiv Kavala în circa patru ore.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Insula-Samothraki1.jpg\")
\r\n\r\nSAMOTRACE - Insula Zeiței Niki\r\n\r\nDe la înalțime insula pare un ou uriaș aruncat de zei în Marea Egee, în nord estul Greciei. Se întinde pe aproximativ 180 de kilometri pătrați iar zona de coastă acoperă 32 de kilometri. Vizual impresionează prin verdele intens al pădurilor de pe muntele Saos, care străpunge peisajul cu vârful Feggari (1664 metri). De pe acest munte, spune Homer (doar suntem în Grecia), urmărea Poseidon, Zeul Mării, desfășurarea Războiului Troian. Totul aici se exprimă prin miturile antichității confirmate de cercetările moderne. Insula a fost populată din timpuri imemoriale de către Kares, iar apoi de către Traci. Dovezile arheologice datează din Neolitic și Epoca Bronzului așa cum certifică descoperirile din zona satului Karyotes.\r\n\r\nÎnsă faima insulei este dată de situl arhelogic ”Templul Marilor Zei”, aflat în zona Paleopolis, cu o suprafață de 20 de hectare. Drumul șerpuiește lăsând pe dreapta Muzeul de Arheologie (construit de Misiunea Arheologică Americană începând din 1938), iar pe stânga curge râul Fonias peste al cărui podeț, trecând, intri direct în istorie. Portalul lui Ptolemeu te invită în spațiul sacru din anii 285-280 î.e.n unde descoperi ruinele surprinzătorului Arsineo o construcție circulară datând din anii 500 î.e.n.; Palatul Zeilor, Rotonda, Sanctuarul, Altarul de marmură, Templul Kaveiri (Cabiriilor), locul unde a fost descoperită în 1863 Zeița cu aripi, Niki, cu o siluetă de 2,75 metri, sculptată în marmură albă. Unii spun că a fost adusă la lumină de arhelogul german A. Champoiseau, alții îl acreditează pe ambasadorul francez Saboiseau. Cert este că Niki (adică) Victoria, se află, după ce a fost reconstituită parțial din fragmentele găsite, la celebrul Luvru din Paris. Ea e admirată de milioanele de vizitatori în timp ce grecii contemporani o cheamă... acasă. Tot la acest templu s-ar fi ”convertit” la ritualuri sacre Olimpia, mama lui Alexandru cel Mare. Lăsăm în urmă ”Templul Marilor Zei”, unde a fost redeschisă după ani de modernizare, clădirea Muzeului de arhelogie.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6595,6596,6597,6598,6599,6600,6601,6602,6603,6604,6605\"]\r\n\r\nAl doilea punct de vizitat, în topul imaginar al gazdelor, este zidul de apărare al orașului antic Paleopolis, construit de pe coastele munților până la mare. Unul dintre puținele monumente rămase în picioare este Turnul Gattiluzi (ce datează din secolul X), ridicat în apropierea orășelului de buzunar Chora. El reflectă elemente din arhitectura post-bizantină. Chora are farmecul așezărilor grecești înfipte în dealuri și munți. Străduțe înguste, taverne, turn cu ceas, cafenele, magazine, panorame de poveste. La baza localității te privește elegant o copie a siluetei statuii lui Niki. Puțini știu că aceasta a fost sursă de inspirație pentru crearea siglei la fel de celebrei mărci de pantofi de sport Nike.\r\n\r\nPe insulă nu există transport public, cu excepția taxiurilor (tarife foarte accesibile), așa că insula este promovată și ca un ”rai” pentru bicicliști, trekeri, globtroteri etc. Peșteri, cascade, văi umbroase, lacuri cu ape limpezi.

Dacă le-ați văzut pe toate merită să vă îndreptați spre două insule ”crude”. Spre ambele puteți ajunge cu ferryboat-ul din Alexandropolis, respectiv Kavala în circa patru ore.\r\n\r\nSAMOTRACE - Insula Zeiței Niki\r\n\r\nDe la înalțime insula pare un ou uriaș aruncat de zei în Marea Egee, în nord estul Greciei. Se întinde pe aproximativ 180 de kilometri pătrați iar zona de coastă acoperă 32 de kilometri. Vizual impresionează prin verdele intens al pădurilor de pe muntele Saos, care străpunge peisajul cu vârful Feggari (1664 metri). De pe acest munte, spune Homer (doar suntem în Grecia), urmărea Poseidon, Zeul Mării, desfășurarea Războiului Troian. Totul aici se exprimă prin miturile antichității confirmate de cercetările moderne. Insula a fost populată din timpuri imemoriale de către Kares, iar apoi de către Traci. Dovezile arheologice datează din Neolitic și Epoca Bronzului așa cum certifică descoperirile din zona satului Karyotes.\r\n\r\nÎnsă faima insulei este dată de situl arhelogic ”Templul Marilor Zei”, aflat în zona Paleopolis, cu o suprafață de 20 de hectare. Drumul șerpuiește lăsând pe dreapta Muzeul de Arheologie (construit de Misiunea Arheologică Americană începând din 1938), iar pe stânga curge râul Fonias peste al cărui podeț, trecând, intri direct în istorie. Portalul lui Ptolemeu te invită în spațiul sacru din anii 285-280 î.e.n unde descoperi ruinele surprinzătorului Arsineo o construcție circulară datând din anii 500 î.e.n.; Palatul Zeilor, Rotonda, Sanctuarul, Altarul de marmură, Templul Kaveiri (Cabiriilor), locul unde a fost descoperită în 1863 Zeița cu aripi, Niki, cu o siluetă de 2,75 metri, sculptată în marmură albă. Unii spun că a fost adusă la lumină de arhelogul german A. Champoiseau, alții îl acreditează pe ambasadorul francez Saboiseau. Cert este că Niki (adică) Victoria, se află, după ce a fost reconstituită parțial din fragmentele găsite, la celebrul Luvru din Paris. Ea e admirată de milioanele de vizitatori în timp ce grecii contemporani o cheamă... acasă. Tot la acest templu s-ar fi ”convertit” la ritualuri sacre Olimpia, mama lui Alexandru cel Mare. Lăsăm în urmă ”Templul Marilor Zei”, unde a fost redeschisă după ani de modernizare, clădirea Muzeului de arhelogie.\r\n\r\nAl doilea punct de vizitat, în topul imaginar al gazdelor, este zidul de apărare al orașului antic Paleopolis, construit de pe coastele munților până la mare. Unul dintre puținele monumente rămase în picioare este Turnul Gattiluzi (ce datează din secolul X), ridicat în apropierea orășelului de buzunar Chora. El reflectă elemente din arhitectura post-bizantină. Chora are farmecul așezărilor grecești înfipte în dealuri și munți. Străduțe înguste, taverne, turn cu ceas, cafenele, magazine, panorame de poveste. La baza localității te privește elegant o copie a siluetei statuii lui Niki. Puțini știu că aceasta a fost sursă de inspirație pentru crearea siglei la fel de celebrei mărci de pantofi de sport Nike.\r\n\r\nPe insulă nu există transport public, cu excepția taxiurilor (tarife foarte accesibile), așa că insula este promovată și ca un ”rai” pentru bicicliști, trekeri, globtroteri etc. Peșteri, cascade, văi umbroase, lacuri cu ape limpezi. Hotelurile, precum Samotraki Village ori pensiunile de genul Epavlis Resort, au capacități mici de maximum 35 de camere, degajă o atmosferă plină de farmec cu aer eclectic și foarte familiar. De obicei în prețul camerei este inclus micul dejun, dar toate au și un restaurant putând să asigure la cerere alte tipuri de mese.\r\n\r\nCât despre gastronomie, carnea de capră la proțap, fructele de mare și măslinele sunt în meniurile tuturor. Gustul este inconfundabil. Pentru o experiență udată cu vin local, alb, sec și rece toată lumea recomandă ”Akcrogiali” pentru produsele de pește. Nu ratați și o vizită la ”Melmar”, o vinărie nouă, modernă aflată la poalele Muntelui Saos. Proprietarul se ocupă de nave și ferryboat-uri iar copiii lui, de plantație și vinuri. Nouă ne-au plăcut, din vinurile prezentate la testat Malagoulia - alb, sec, medaliat cu aur în 2016, un roze sec Mavroudi și, un roșu Mavroudi Syrah.\r\n\r\nLEMNOS - argilă, Hefaistos și mistere\r\n\r\nAm putea să o declarăm soră cu Samotrace. Dacă ar avea aripi, una ar atinge ca o briză Muntele Athos, prin golful Bourmas, iar cealaltă coastele golfului Moudros, înspre sud. A fost cel mai important punct strategic militar din Egee, multe dintre armatele lumii încercând să-l cucerească. Insula s-a deschis în ultimii ani când importanța militară a scăzut. Administrația locală, inspirându-se din experiența altor insule, s-a pus serios pe treabă pentru a se promova și a atrage cât mai mulți turiști spre Lemnos. Mâncare specifică e, cazare în proprietăți de mici capacități fermecătoare (majoritatea apart-hoteluri și pensiuni) e, plaje de top mondial cu golfulețe private, înșirate pe 260 de kilometri, toate sunt la locul lor. Integrate într-un peisaj ce amintește de liniștea de la începutul lumii. Ideal loc de vacanțe.\r\n\r\nCe să faci la Lemnos? Firește, o incursiune în mitologie. Locul a devenit casa zeului Hefaistos, soțul frumoasei Afrodita, fierarul cel urât aruncat din Olimp de către tatăl lui... Zeus. Hefaistos și-a vindecat rănile cu argilă și apele termale existente pe insulă. Primii locuitori, preistoricii Sintians, sunt renumiți pentru crearea primului Parlament din lume. Filoctet, eroul mușcat de un șarpe veninos în timpul Războiului Troian, și-a recăpătat și el puterile pe această insulă. Tot cu miraculoasa argilă.

Numit ”Terra Sigillata”, el este amintit în perioada bizantină, în lumea arabă, în Europa etc. Argila pare să fi fost un antidot foarte eficient pentru multe boli, până în 1916 când documentele încep să-l uite în vârtejul descoperirilor medicale. Pe nedrept, pentru că, spun grecii, acest produs a fost primul medicament standardizat din lume, cu origini cunoscute și protejate. Sigur, nu veniți în vacanță la Lemnos pentru medicamente.

The main objective of the airport was to form new partnerships with different operators, in order to enhance economics and travel in the connected areas. “During the meetings we opened future projects, ready to show on for the summer schedule 2019 - said Bogdan Ionut Artagea, general director of the Constanta Airport.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nAlexandrion Group invests in tourism\r\n\r\nThe New Montana Hotel in Sinaia was bought by the Alexandrion Group two years ago.The new owners, specialized in the production of spirits, Alexandrion and Cava D`Oro, took over a unit with 120 employees, 175 rooms, and have expressed the intention in investing further in the hotel industry. The target is creating a chain of about 10 properties (taken over or newly built) under a new brand. New Montana is being managed by Nicolae Rosca – former sales leader of Ramada Majestic in Bucharest – and was renamed New Montana Hotel & Spa by Alexandrion Group. Only recently the company acquired the Rhein Hotel in Azuga, built by Hallewood Romania. Nawaf Salameh, CEO and founder of Alexandrion Grup Romania, also announced that Alexandrion will invest about 100 million dollars in a distillery in New York State, USA, so making its entrance on the American market.\r\n\r\nErnest and Canadian fly to Romania\r\n\r\nTwo new companies decided to start operating from the Otopeni International Airport in Bucharest. The low-cost carrier Ernest Airlines opened in June flights from Bucharest to Genova and Verona, and flights from Iași to Torino Cuneo and Verona. The route Bucharest – Verona has three flights per week (Monday, Wednesday and Friday) and Bucharest – Genova is two times a week (Monday and Friday). The city of Iași is linked to Torino Cuneo two times a week (Wednesday and Sunday) and with Verona each Monday, Wednesday and Saturday - said Chady El Tannir, Business Development Director. Founded in 2015 Ernest Airlines offers regular flights out of ten Italian Airports to Spain, Romania, Albania and Ukraine. This is the first Italian company to operate from the Iasi airport.\r\n\r\nIn June also Air Canada began the direct flights to/from Romania: Montreal – Bucharest – Montreal, respectively Toronto – Bucharest – Toronto. Officials of the company announced that the schedule of flights runs until October but, according to the business volume to be registered, the decision might be modified. Air Canada thus became the only company in North America to fly to Romania.','Hotel Epoque is a member of Relais & Chateaux, ENGLISH VERSION no.169','','inherit','closed','closed','','6515-revision-v1','','','2019-01-31 16:51:04','2019-01-31 14:51:04','',6515,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2019/01/31/6515-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6517,1,'2019-01-31 17:02:31','2019-01-31 15:02:31','România este “una dintre cele mai puțin remarcate - daca nu chiar cea mai puțin remarcată - destinații de vacanță ale Europei”, deși reprezintă un loc care “are absolut tot” pentru a fi pe placul turiștilor, afirmă jurnalistul britanic Stephen McGrath în ediția online a săptămânalului The Spectator.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Ev-The-spectator.jpg\")

Sheraton București a plecat spre... digitalizarea serviciilor iar Alexandrion își face grup hotelier. Golful devine o afacere chineză iar turcii de la Ener se gândesc să vândă Ramada-Majestic.\r\n\r\nHOTEL EPOQUE, membru Relais & Chateaux\r\n\r\nLa jumătatea anului trecut restaurantul Le Bistrot Francais a aderat la prestigioasa organizație internațională de hoteluri și restaurante Relais & Chateaux. Al doilea membru din România este Hotel Epoque din București care și-a anunțat afilierea la Relais & Chateaux, la jumătatea acestui an. Procedura de aderare la Relais & Chateaux conține peste 300 de criterii de analiza. Etapele procesului includ evaluari ale comisiilor de inspectori Relais & Chateaux, audituri de calitate realizate cu caracter anonim, recenziile oaspeților clubului 5C, votul Comitetului director etc. Din cele aproximativ 120 proprietăți inspectate anual, numai o pătrime devin membri Relais & Chateaux la finalizarea procesului de selecție.\r\n\r\nBeneficiile membrilor includ: accesul la segmentul specific de clienți Relais & Chateaux, sistem propriu de rezervări directe, platforma proprie de recrutare a celor mai buni candidați pentru echipele proprietăților membre, academie de formare directă sau online și accesul la întreaga infrastructură de comunicare și promovare specifică brandului Relais & Chateaux. Comunitatea Relais & Chateaux numără peste 550 proprietăți în întreaga lume și are peste 2 milioane de clienți pe an - a subliniat Philippe Gombert, Președintele în exercițiu al Relais & Chateaux. ”Sperăm să ne dezvoltăm rețeaua în România și în sud-estul Europei și vom face din această regiune o prioritate pentru următorii ani” a mai adăugat acesta.\r\n\r\nSHERATON - investiție în SPA\r\n\r\nPrioprietarii Sheraton din București au achizitionat un teren de 1.000 de metri pătrați în vecinătatea hotelului pe care intenționează să construiască un centru SPA, o sală de conferințe de mari dimensiuni și un număr suplimentar de până la 100 de camere. Planurile de dezvoltare se vor întinde pe o perioadă de 3 ani. În prezent, hotelul Sheraton din Capitală are 270 de camere, dintre care 27 executive și un apartament prezidențial. Unitatea hotelieră va mai derula investiții majore în proiecte precum digitalizarea completă a accesului în camerele de hotel, care se va realiza prin intermediul telefoanelor de tip smartphone.\r\n\r\nALEXANDRION își face grup hotelier\r\n\r\nHotelul New Montana din Sinaia a fost achiziționat de către Alexandrion Group în urma unei tranzacții ce s-a încheiat în urmă cu aproape doi ani. Noii proprietari, specializați în producerea băuturilor Alexandrion și Cava D`Oro, care au preluat atunci peste 120 de angajați și o capacitate de 175 de camere și-au exprimat intenția de a investi în domeniu industriei hoteliere. Ținta este crearea unui lanț de circa 10 unități preluate sau construite de la zero sub un brand comun. New Montana operează deja pe piață, sub un nou management asigurat de Nicolae Roșca, -, sub numele New Montana Hotel & Spa by Alexandrion Group. Recent în cadrul unei tranzacții complexe, în portofoliul companiei a intrat și hotelul Rhein din Azuga, construit de Hallewood România. Nawaf Salameh, CEO și fondator al Alexandrion Grup România, a anunțat recent ca Alexandrion va investi 100 de milioane de dolari, în etape, într-o distilerie în statul New York din SUA, intrând astfel pentru prima dată pe această piață.\r\n\r\nTRANZACȚII: Majestic, Residence și ... Verde\r\n\r\nAcționarii turci de la Ener Holding care dețin primul Ramada din București (fostul hotel Majestic) au anunțat că au scos la vânzare complexul contra sumei de 13,5 milioane de euro. El a fost construit înainte de Primul Război Mondial, devenind unul dintre dintre hotelurile istorice ale Capitalei, alături de Bulevard, Capșa, Capitol, Grand Continental, Athenee Palace-Hilton etc. Clasificat la 4 stele, el oferă 111 camere, piscină și două săli de conferințe.

Despre performanțele în fotbal ale echipei Rubin Kazan ați auzit. Dar știți probabil, mai puțin despre echipa de volei masculin Zenit Kazan, un fel de Real Madrid al acestei discipline, care a câștigat 4 sezoane la rând Liga Campionilor. Marele ”suporter” al acestor performanțe este colosul Gazprom, care alocă anual 10 milioane de dolari. Așa a ajuns Kazan subiectul nr.1 în materie de sport în Rusia. Orașul cu circa 1,2 milioane de locuitori, din aproximativ 3,9 milioane cît are Tatarstanul, este Capitala sportului în Rusia. Dar în același timp a fost declarat una dintre cele 4... Capitale sportive ale lumii, alături de Dubai, Londra și Auckland. Sângele istoriei a fost dat de tătari, care s-au ”mixat” în acest ”cazan” cu rușii, în deplina armonie dintre musulmani și ortodocși.

Nu întâmplător anul trecut Federația Internațională a Jurnaliștilor și Scriitorilor de Turism (FIJET) a decernat un Golden Apple pentru atracțiile turistice ale orașulu. Amplasat pe Volga Kazan respiră prin artere de circulație moderne, cartiere pitorești precum vechiul Tatar, un veritabil muzeu în aer liber. Trebuie să alocați câteva zile pentru a descoperi atracțiile lui dar și pe cele din împrejurimi. În centrul istoric, pe Bauman Street, vă așteaptă atracțiile adoptate de lumea modernă (muzică live, cafenele și ceainării, magazine de suveniruri, săli de spectacole etc.), Transportul public este bine pus la punct iar în materie de cazare vă așteaptă circa 150 de hoteluri. În mod cert atracția principală este... Kremlinul alb.\r\n\r\nCetatea, atestată în secolul al XII-lea te cheamă cu o imagine de ansamblu nepereche: aici se află Kul Sharif, cea mai veche moschee din Rusia, un joc arhitectonic de turcoaz și alb; impunătoarea Catedrală ortodoxă a Buneivestiri (1552 este anul în care a fost terminată), ce promovează la rândul ei aceleași culori; Turnul înclinat al cetății în tonuri cărămizii, ce veghează la amintirea lui Syuyumbike, legendara regină a tătarilor. Un tur de noapte vă va dezvălui o cu totul altă perspectivă, susținută de lumini special direcționate spre clădirile emblemă.\r\n\r\nCetatea are și valențe contemporane aici aflându-se reședința oficială a Președintelui țării, muzee și galerii expoziționale. Cum turiștii au decât treaba de a strânge cât mai multe amintiri și dovezi că au fost la Kazan, vom spune că poate cea mai apropiată asemănare o putem stabili cu Cetatea Alba Iulia de la noi. Cu deosebirea că în anul 2000 Kremlinul din Kazan a fost inclus pe lista Patrimoniului cultural și natural mondial UNESCO.\r\n\r\nÎn capitala Hoardei de Aur\r\n\r\nUn alt loc încărcat de sacralitate se află tot pe Volga la aproape 180 de kilometri de Kazan. The Great Bulgar (sau Marele Bolgar), face la rândul lui parte din Patrimoniul UNESCO. E un loc magic, care strălucește de istorie. Povestea începe cu o așezare a bogarilor, strămoșii tătarilor moderni. Mărturiile civilizației lor se regăsesc în ruinele orașului-cetate, prezervat cu grijă. Site-ul este bine organizat cu o signalistică modernă care te trimite spre Marea Moschee (unde se află, atenție, cel mai mare și mai greu Coran din lume - 800 de kilograme, 2 metri înălțime, coperțile sunt realizate din malachit -, aspecte înregistrate în Guinness World Records), Marele Minaret, Mormântul Hanului etc. În 922 bolgarii au adoptat islamul așa încât în secolul al XIII-lea Cetatea Bolgar a devenit Capitala Hoardei de Aur. De atunci au fost puse fundamentele Tatarstanului modern. Ilustrarea acestei civilizații aflată la răscrucea dintre Europa și Asia, este făcută în complexul muzeal cu bijuterii, arme, veșminte, obiecte de cult, descoperite în acest perimetru. Un prânz cu specific tătar nu trebuie ocolit. El poate fi consumat la un Han Tătăresc parte dintr-un Muzeu etnografic și de Istorie, amplasat într-o rezervație naturală cu aproape 140 de hectare.\r\n\r\nÎntrebați de Ivan cel Groaznic\r\n\r\nDacă sunteți în căutarea unui loc și mai deosebit vă recomandăm insula-oraș Sviyazhsk. Și el tot în Patrimoniul UNESCO. Se află la numai 60 de kilometri de Kazan. Locul poartă amprenta fondatorului său Ivan cel Groaznic care a dorit să construiască în secolul al XVI-lea o fortăreață care să fie un punct de rezistență dar și un avanpost pentru cucerirea Kazan-ului și, deci a tătarilor. Locul s-a transformat rapid într-un simbol al culturii ruse. De pe urma acestui ”proiect” au rămas 37 de site-uri culturale și o așezare cu aproape 300 de locuitori. Majoritatea se ocupă cu întreținerea obiectivelor amintite printre care Biserica din lemn Sf. Treime (construită în 1551, într-o singură zi), cel mai vechi așezământ creștin de pe Volga; Catedrala Uspensky, unde există o reprezentare iconografică a lui Ivan cel Groaznic etc. Din 2010 autoritățile au transformat acest loc într-un obiectiv de pelerinaj cultural și religios. Au fost amenajate terenuri de echitație, un mic sat medieval cu ateliere meșteșugărești (armuri, arme ancestrale, potcoave personalizate cu numele tău), un perimetru unde se pot practica diverse sporturi ori jocuri inspirate din istoria tătarilor. Dacă vreți mai mult, coborâți spre râu și opriți-vă la Casa muzeu Trotsky. Revoluționarul bolșevic și marxist rus a fost un politician influent la începuturile existenței Uniunii Sovietice, fondator și prim comandant al Armatei Roșii și Comisar al poporului pentru apărare.

\r\n\r\nUn prinț și o actriță americană deveniți după căsătorie duce și ducesă de Sussex - au dorit, probabil, să acorde o mai mare atenție istoriei și mai puțin fastului. Windsor este poate cea mai cunoscută reședință regală din lume și, în mod cert, una dintre cele mai vechi. Istoria castelului, aflat în localitatea cu același nume, începe undea pe la 1165, an legat de regele Henric al II-lea. El a reconstruit castelul în piatră, prima variantă fiind din lemn, și a pus insemnele monarhiei pe Round Tower, construcția principală a castelului. În prezent, această fortăreață regală s-a reschis publicului. O atracție turistică de neocolit. Numărul mare de vizitatori a impulsionat și dezvoltarea orașului Windsor. O bijuterie arhitectonică, pantinată de timp și istorii, lustruită miile de călători curioși ce asaltează, zilnic, castelul. Desigur o parte din vizibilitatea culturală a urbei se datorează lui Shakespeare, prin celebra ”Nevestele vesele din Windsor” scrisă în 1597, piesă ce a inspirat ulterior libretul operei Falstaff al lui Giuseppe Verdi.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6535,6536,6537,6538,6539,6540,6541,6542\"]\r\n\r\nO plimbarea pe The Church Street vă oferă plăcerea de a vă întâlni la Ye Old King’s Head construit de Henric al VIII-lea în 1525. La o masă de aici și-a conceput Marele William piesa amintită mai sus. Și tot aici puteți vedea un document de la 1648, care redă Ordinul de executare a regelui Charles I. El stârnește azi apetitul pentru o... masă bună, ultima înainte de a pătrunde pe domeniul Windsor. Fluxurile de turiști sunt bine sistematizate, încât show-ul regal se poate derula foarte fluent. Biletul de acces vă permite, în funcție de circuitul pentru care ați optat, să frecventați cele mai importante încăperi ale castelului. Veți întâlni opere de artă inestimabile aflate în Colecția Regală expuse în The State Apartaments, de la Rembrandt, la Rubens și Canaletto, Gainsborough ori Constable. Frescele de pe pereții încăperilor sunt create de Antonio Verrio, șemineurile poartă amprenta Adam. Ne aflăm în fața unui veritabil muzeu de istorie a artei.\r\n\r\nDar locul care atrage ca un magnet vizitatorii este Queen Mary’s Doll’s House. Această reședință miniaturală, care adăpostește jucăriile regale, a fost concepută de celebrul arhitect britanic Sir Edwin Lutyens în anul 1923. Toate exponatele au fost create la scara de 1:12 și este real: Cărți, păpuși, tablouri. Casa are iluminat electric și apă curentă. Pavilionul Superior cuprinde, din secolul al XIII-lea Curtea Regală. În mod sigur știți că acest castel este reședință (de vară) a monarhiei britanice, la fel ca Palatul Buckingham. Te poți bucura de vizitarea Waterloo Chamber, apartamentul construit la 1832, pentru a marca victoria de la Waterloo. Fiecare încăpere te primește cu o atmosferă degajată, calmă, culori și tonuri luminoase. Turcoazul pare a fi preferatul familiei el regăsindu-se atât în imprimeurile tapetului de pe pereți dar și în reflexiile porțelanurilor regale. Incendiul din 1992 a distrus o parte din încăperile castelului dar munca de restaurare a îndepărtat aproape orice urmă.\r\n\r\nDacă ai terminat circuitul interior și mai ai energie, ia-o la pas coborând în curtea castelului. Poți fi însoțit de o ploaie ușoară de vară spre St. George’s Chapel, asta ca să nu uiți cumva că te afli în Anglia. Este cea mai impresionantă clădire a castelului construită între 1475-1528. Poți să fi orientat și de către un ghid român ca să te poți descurca mai ușor prin istoria națională greu de perceput în numai câteva zeci de minute. Elena e din Timișoara, lucrează aici de două sezoane, accentul este british precum și amabilitatea. Merită să reproducem că în celebra Capelă se află mormintele a nu mai puțin de zece monarhi. Printre aceștia se numără cele ale lui Henric al VIII-lea și al nefericitului Charles I. Sculpturile din piatră ce încadrează Capela te invită cu aer solemn să parcurgi culoarul unde se află scaunele înalte ale cavalerilor Ordinului lui Garter fondat de Edward al III-lea la 1348. Rege căruia i se datorează și înființarea Colegiului St. George care joacă un rol important în păstrarea și conservarea valorilor existente la Windsor. Fundația Colegiului are foarte mulți membrii în întreaga lume. Ea e animată de circa 170 de stewarzi ce desfășoară activități voluntare pentru vizitatori utile pentru orientarea în castel, dar și activități dedicate întreținerii Capelei și Castelului, tradiție ce datează de circa 500 de ani.\r\n\r\nPărăsim domeniul prin Poarta Regelui Henric al VIII-lea și țintim zona centrală a orașului. Înnotăm printre sutele de turiști veniți de pe întregul mapamond pentru a ajunge în stația centrală unde trag City Bus-urile ce fac tururile de oraș. De aici începe o altă călătorie, cu etape de coborât și urcat, cu obiective turistice, veritabile ”manuale de istorie”. Vă mai reținem atenția decât cu trei sfaturi: pentru turul Castelului Windsor aveți nevoie de cel puțin cinci ore. Dacă sunteți foarte activi optați pentru încălțăminte comodă tip sport. Cunoscătorii pot aborda și un tur gastronomic pentru a testa... gustul istoriei. Oxford Blue, The George Inn, The Duchess of Cambridge Pub, The Prince Albert, The Carpenters Arms sunt doar câteva dintre oglinzile ei.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU','Windsor - De la Henric la Henry, MAPAMOND nr. 169','','publish','open','open','','windsor-de-la-henric-la-henry-mapamond-nr-169','','','2019-02-02 16:52:57','2019-02-02 14:52:57','',0,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/?p=6525',0,'post','',0),(6526,1,'2019-02-02 16:29:05','2019-02-02 14:29:05','De ce a ales cuplul regal Prințul Harry și Meghan Markle St.George pentru ceremonia religioasă iar Castelul Windsor pentru o procesiune de aproape trei kilometri?

Sculpturile din piatră ce încadrează Capela te invită cu aer solemn să parcurgi culoarul unde se află scaunele înalte ale cavalerilor Ordinului lui Garter fondat de Edward al III-lea la 1348. Rege căruia i se datorează și înființarea Colegiului St. George care joacă un rol important în păstrarea și conservarea valorilor existente la Windsor. Fundația Colegiului are foarte mulți membrii în întreaga lume. Ea e animată de circa 170 de stewarzi ce desfășoară activități voluntare pentru vizitatori utile pentru orientarea în castel, dar și activități dedicate întreținerii Capelei și Castelului, tradiție ce datează de circa 500 de ani.\r\n\r\nPărăsim domeniul prin Poarta Regelui Henric al VIII-lea și țintim zona centrală a orașului. Înnotăm printre sutele de turiști veniți de pe întregul mapamond pentru a ajunge în stația centrală unde trag City Bus-urile ce fac tururile de oraș. De aici începe o altă călătorie, cu etape de coborât și urcat, cu obiective turistice, veritabile ”manuale de istorie”. Vă mai reținem atenția decât cu trei sfaturi: pentru turul Castelului Windsor aveți nevoie de cel puțin cinci ore. Dacă sunteți foarte activi optați pentru încălțăminte comodă tip sport. Cunoscătorii pot aborda și un tur gastronomic pentru a testa... gustul istoriei. Oxford Blue, The George Inn, The Duchess of Cambridge Pub, The Prince Albert, The Carpenters Arms sunt doar câteva dintre oglinzile ei.\r\n\r\nDOINA CONSTANTINESCU','Windsor - De la Henric la Henry, MAPAMOND nr. 169','','inherit','closed','closed','','6525-revision-v1','','','2019-02-02 16:29:05','2019-02-02 14:29:05','',6525,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2019/02/02/6525-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6527,1,'2019-02-02 16:42:43','2019-02-02 14:42:43','A VIII-a ediție a Concursului de eleganță Sinaia, eveniment FIVA A, organizat de Retromobil Club România a reunit 35 de automobile de mare valoare, cel mai vechi fiind din 1921 (Renault Type 2 Torpedo), iar cel mai nou, din 1987.

Rezultatele se vor regăsi în programul de vară 2019 - ne-a precizat directorul general al Aeroportului Mihail Kogălniceanu, Bogdan Ionuț Artagea.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n ','Sinaia - Eleganță de colectie, TRANSPORTURI nr. 169','','inherit','closed','closed','','6527-revision-v1','','','2019-02-02 16:50:27','2019-02-02 14:50:27','',6527,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2019/02/02/6527-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6534,1,'2019-02-02 16:51:53','2019-02-02 14:51:53','','Windsor2','','inherit','open','closed','','windsor2','','','2019-02-02 16:51:53','2019-02-02 14:51:53','',6525,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Windsor2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6535,1,'2019-02-02 16:52:20','2019-02-02 14:52:20','','Ghid Cecilia Vaida','','inherit','open','closed','','ghid-cecilia-vaida','','','2019-02-02 16:52:20','2019-02-02 14:52:20','',6525,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Ghid-Cecilia-Vaida.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6536,1,'2019-02-02 16:52:21','2019-02-02 14:52:21','','Windsor 12','','inherit','open','closed','','windsor-12','','','2019-02-02 16:52:21','2019-02-02 14:52:21','',6525,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Windsor-12.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6537,1,'2019-02-02 16:52:22','2019-02-02 14:52:22','','Windsor 56','','inherit','open','closed','','windsor-56','','','2019-02-02 16:52:22','2019-02-02 14:52:22','',6525,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Windsor-56.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6538,1,'2019-02-02 16:52:24','2019-02-02 14:52:24','','Windsor castel04','','inherit','open','closed','','windsor-castel04','','','2019-02-02 16:52:24','2019-02-02 14:52:24','',6525,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Windsor-castel04.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6539,1,'2019-02-02 16:52:26','2019-02-02 14:52:26','','Windsor city 3','','inherit','open','closed','','windsor-city-3','','','2019-02-02 16:52:26','2019-02-02 14:52:26','',6525,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Windsor-city-3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6540,1,'2019-02-02 16:52:27','2019-02-02 14:52:27','','Windsor city5','','inherit','open','closed','','windsor-city5','','','2019-02-02 16:52:27','2019-02-02 14:52:27','',6525,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Windsor-city5.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6541,1,'2019-02-02 16:52:28','2019-02-02 14:52:28','','Windsor interior','','inherit','open','closed','','windsor-interior','','','2019-02-02 16:52:28','2019-02-02 14:52:28','',6525,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Windsor-interior.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6542,1,'2019-02-02 16:52:30','2019-02-02 14:52:30','','Windsor','','inherit','open','closed','','windsor','','','2019-02-02 16:52:30','2019-02-02 14:52:30','',6525,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Windsor.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6543,1,'2019-02-02 16:52:30','2019-02-02 14:52:30','De ce a ales cuplul regal Prințul Harry și Meghan Markle St.George pentru ceremonia religioasă iar Castelul Windsor pentru o procesiune de aproape trei kilometri?

Windsor este poate cea mai cunoscută reședință regală din lume și, în mod cert, una dintre cele mai vechi. Istoria castelului, aflat în localitatea cu același nume, începe undea pe la 1165, an legat de regele Henric al II-lea. El a reconstruit castelul în piatră, prima variantă fiind din lemn, și a pus insemnele monarhiei pe Round Tower, construcția principală a castelului. În prezent, această fortăreață regală s-a reschis publicului. O atracție turistică de neocolit. Numărul mare de vizitatori a impulsionat și dezvoltarea orașului Windsor. O bijuterie arhitectonică, pantinată de timp și istorii, lustruită miile de călători curioși ce asaltează, zilnic, castelul. Desigur o parte din vizibilitatea culturală a urbei se datorează lui Shakespeare, prin celebra ”Nevestele vesele din Windsor” scrisă în 1597, piesă ce a inspirat ulterior libretul operei Falstaff al lui Giuseppe Verdi.\n\nO plimbarea pe The Church Street vă oferă plăcerea de a vă întâlni la Ye Old King’s Head construit de Henric al VIII-lea în 1525.

Biletul de acces vă permite, în funcție de circuitul pentru care ați optat, să frecventați cele mai importante încăperi ale castelului. Veți întâlni opere de artă inestimabile aflate în Colecția Regală expuse în The State Apartaments, de la Rembrandt, la Rubens și Canaletto, Gainsborough ori Constable. Frescele de pe pereții încăperilor sunt create de Antonio Verrio, șemineurile poartă amprenta Adam.

Toate exponatele au fost create la scara de 1:12 și este real: Cărți, păpuși, tablouri. Casa are iluminat electric și apă curentă. Pavilionul Superior cuprinde, din secolul al XIII-lea Curtea Regală. În mod sigur știți că acest castel este reședință (de vară) a monarhiei britanice, la fel ca Palatul Buckingham. Te poți bucura de vizitarea Waterloo Chamber, apartamentul construit la 1832, pentru a marca victoria de la Waterloo.

Cum se desfășoară viața în împrejurimile metropolei? Cu mai multe viteze, mai multe expresii și moduri de a o trăi. Pragmatismul american este, însă, întâlnit la fiecare pas.\n\n\n\nO atmosferă pe care greu ți-o poți imagina că există în ”regiunea” Maryland, la peste 50 de kilometri de Baltimore. Cu ochii pe ceas, dar fără stres, cu oameni interesanți, ce au timp de povești, parcă decupați din alte filme, care fac turism parcă de când s-au născut. Calm, armonie și afaceri de familie, prin care ți-ai câștigat dreptul de a avea și timpul tău pentru a te bucura de viață. Natura și peisajele sunt generoase. Coline verzi, pajiști smălțuite cu flori, vaci, culturi de hamei etc. Este Maryland un corn al abundenței turistice? Ne-am oprit la câteva ”tablouri”, ce se suprapun succesului în afaceri. Nu sunt afaceri mari, dar sunt profitabile.\n\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6552,6555,6556,6557,6558,6559,6560,6562\"]\n\nIon Creangă american și Regele uriașilor\n\nPrima noastră stație a fost Manor Hill Brewing Company. Tinerii patroni și-au pus sufletul pe tava turismului. Ei produc circa 20 de feluri de bere artizanală, filtrată sau nefiltrată, blondă, roșie, dulce, amară, neagră sau caramel, care consumată în cantități rezonabile, alungă inhibițiile și sudează prietenii noi. Periodic aici sunt găzduite manifestări artistice, concertele făcând casă bună cu berea proaspătă. O mare parte din producție este livrată în magazine dedicate cunoscătorilor. Restul rămâne la dispoziția turiștilor care au ocazia, cum e și firesc să facă un circuit în interiorul micii fabrici, însoțiți și de Pumilia Sisley, Top room manager.\n\nBine hidratați ne îndreptăm spre Historic Savage Mill, situată în localitatea cu același nume. Avem în fața ochilor clădirile unei vechi bumbăcării care a fost recuperată și convertită într-un complex multifuncțional, cu magazine și spații dedicate activităților de divertisment: studiouri artistice, anticariate, restaurante și spații cu mici afaceri ce atrag turiștii spre lucruri hand-made, ce îți pot colora locuința și viața. Frumosul parc al localității este o galerie de sculpturi la iarbă verde, cu personaje idilice parcă inspirate din cărțile unui Ion Creangă american. Te desprinzi greu de acest loc, ca și de scaunul uriaș de la intrare pe care te poți așeza numai dacă urci câteva trepte. Câteva minute am fost... regele uriașilor. Înainte de asta am participat la unul dintre atelierele de creație, unde am bricolat... visele. De fapt, ni se spune, ne aflăm în interiorul unui program de relaxare, conceput de o artistă locală, profesoară la origini, dedicat adulților, copiilor dar și familiilor. Vârsta nu contează ci dispoziția de a face lucruri voluntare care-ți procură mici bucurii ale normalității. Numărul aderenților este în creștere, semn că oamenii apreciază... joaca cu foarfecile, desenele, hârtiile colorate și lipici. Sigur, cei care vor adrenalină se pot bucura de facilitățile Terrapin Adventure Park, dotat cu tot ce-ți trebuie ca să poți sări prin copaci, urca în turnuri și te da cu tiroliene pe trasee de sute de metri.\n\nCreatori de modă pentru cîteva ore\n\nAlt discurs, legat de artă și inovație, am aflat la Mannequart Museum fondat de către designerul Lee Anderson. Împreună cu Maryland Fashion Institute ea încurajează tinerii artiști ce aspiră la gloria modei să creeze tinute din materiale reciclabile. Expoziția rezultată este o provocare ca orice inovație pentru ochi și suflet. Tinerii creatori au realizat seturi de îmbrăcăminte din tot ce le-a căzut în mână: bilete de autobuz, hărtii de filtru de cafea, elemente polimerice, panglici, scrisori de dragoste, vederi, cărți de joc, cioburi de oglinzi, capace de roți de mașină, hârtie de scris, împletituri și multe altele. Accesul în atelierul de creație ne-a permis să fim și noi ”creatori” de modă pentru o după-amaiză. Gazda ne-a pus la dispoziție lăzi cu resturi de materiale, mașini de cusut și ne-a dat de lucru. Fiecare a fost invitat să-și creeze un fular ori șal de amintire. Distracția a fost egală cu relaxarea și satisfacția. Am putut vedea - prin amabilitatea directorului executiv Al Scolnik -, ultimele loturi de haine ce urmau să plece spre marile magazine. Piesele de îmbrăcăminte, executate în serii mici, din materiale în armonie cu natura, la prețuri de livrare, firește, variind între... 500 și 12.000 de dolari.\n\nNatură la pachet ne-a fost oferită din plin în Rezervația naturală Baltimore National Pike. Este organizată de-a lungul albiei râului Patapsco, pe o suprafață de circa 55 de kilometri. Aici amatorii de drumeții au la dispoziție peste 350 de kilometri de trasee marcate și întreținute de voluntarii parcului. Această rezervație are la origini o inițiativă patronală ce s-a concretizat prin amenajarea unui parc de recreere și refacere a minerilor care lucrau în carierele din zonă.\n\nLincoln, Zinfandel și afine\n\nO altă vizită scurtă, pentru energizare, am bifat-o cu succes la fabrica ”Lost Ark Distilery”. Un business aparte, bazat pe testări rapide de whisky, produs după rețete artizanale proprii. Acționarii tineri, ambițioși, ne amintesc de dificultățile prin care au trecut până au ajuns la dotările moderne de fabricație dar și la serviciile în centrul cărora stă atenția acordată detaliilor. Sticle prelucrate manual, personalizate pentru fiecare băutură și materiale promoționale atipice, toate acestea trimițând spre istoria regiunii. Lost Ark s-a impus ca o amprentă specifică în turismul zonei Maryland.\n\nEi bine, merităm să facem și o incursiune în istoria căilor ferate. Old Ellicott City s-a dovedit a fi ideal pentru a începe această călătorie. Prin orășelul-bijuterie nu mai trece niciun tren, dar spațiile gării, încadată de străduțe în pantă, găzduiesc azi un muzeu feroviar generos. Locul vorbește prin documente de prima cale ferată din zonă și mai ales de istoriile legate de Războiul civil, cel care a limpezit apele și a trasat drumul spre Statele Unite ale Americii de azi. Nu lipsesc nici Abraham Lincoln și telegraful care au marcat, fiecare în parte și împreună, dezvoltarea politicii comunicațiilor moderne. Și aici am fost împreună cu Eric Masterton, director de vânzări la Group Tour/Visit Baltimore, respectiv de Philip F. Shelton, care ne-au asigurat un spațiu confortabil pentru documentare.\n\nMuncă, muncă, dar din călătoria noastră nu au lipsit nici vinul și nici distracția... culinară. Prima parte am consumat-o la domeniul viticol Boordy Vineyards. Într-un ambient clasic de film american, am descoperit vița de vie în floare și savorile vinurilor testate împreună cu gazdele. Vinuri sprințare, ușoare, aromate, potrivite pentru orice ocazie. Preferințele noastre s-au concentrat pe Vidal Blanc Great Blue Heron, un demidulce produs din strugurii podgoriei și White Sangria, un vin ușor, de vară, cu aciditate moderată ce punea în valoare arome de lămâe și fructe tropicale. Provocator a fost și Zinberry, un cupaj creativ de Zinfandel și afine, cu o notă finală fructată, acidă și dulce. Unde a fost distracția?

Cum se desfășoară viața în împrejurimile metropolei? Cu mai multe viteze, mai multe expresii și moduri de a o trăi. Pragmatismul american este, însă, întâlnit la fiecare pas.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nO atmosferă pe care greu ți-o poți imagina că există în ”regiunea” Maryland, la peste 50 de kilometri de Baltimore. Cu ochii pe ceas, dar fără stres, cu oameni interesanți, ce au timp de povești, parcă decupați din alte filme, care fac turism parcă de când s-au născut. Calm, armonie și afaceri de familie, prin care ți-ai câștigat dreptul de a avea și timpul tău pentru a te bucura de viață. Natura și peisajele sunt generoase. Coline verzi, pajiști smălțuite cu flori, vaci, culturi de hamei etc. Este Maryland un corn al abundenței turistice? Ne-am oprit la câteva ”tablouri”, ce se suprapun succesului în afaceri. Nu sunt afaceri mari, dar sunt profitabile.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6552,6555,6556,6557,6558,6559,6560,6562\"]\r\n\r\nIon Creangă american și Regele uriașilor\r\n\r\nPrima noastră stație a fost Manor Hill Brewing Company. Tinerii patroni și-au pus sufletul pe tava turismului. Ei produc circa 20 de feluri de bere artizanală, filtrată sau nefiltrată, blondă, roșie, dulce, amară, neagră sau caramel, care consumată în cantități rezonabile, alungă inhibițiile și sudează prietenii noi. Periodic aici sunt găzduite manifestări artistice, concertele făcând casă bună cu berea proaspătă. O mare parte din producție este livrată în magazine dedicate cunoscătorilor. Restul rămâne la dispoziția turiștilor care au ocazia, cum e și firesc să facă un circuit în interiorul micii fabrici, însoțiți și de Pumilia Sisley, Top room manager.\r\n\r\nBine hidratați ne îndreptăm spre Historic Savage Mill, situată în localitatea cu același nume. Avem în fața ochilor clădirile unei vechi bumbăcării care a fost recuperată și convertită într-un complex multifuncțional, cu magazine și spații dedicate activităților de divertisment: studiouri artistice, anticariate, restaurante și spații cu mici afaceri ce atrag turiștii spre lucruri hand-made, ce îți pot colora locuința și viața. Frumosul parc al localității este o galerie de sculpturi la iarbă verde, cu personaje idilice parcă inspirate din cărțile unui Ion Creangă american. Te desprinzi greu de acest loc, ca și de scaunul uriaș de la intrare pe care te poți așeza numai dacă urci câteva trepte. Câteva minute am fost... regele uriașilor. Înainte de asta am participat la unul dintre atelierele de creație, unde am bricolat... visele. De fapt, ni se spune, ne aflăm în interiorul unui program de relaxare, conceput de o artistă locală, profesoară la origini, dedicat adulților, copiilor dar și familiilor. Vârsta nu contează ci dispoziția de a face lucruri voluntare care-ți procură mici bucurii ale normalității. Numărul aderenților este în creștere, semn că oamenii apreciază... joaca cu foarfecile, desenele, hârtiile colorate și lipici. Sigur, cei care vor adrenalină se pot bucura de facilitățile Terrapin Adventure Park, dotat cu tot ce-ți trebuie ca să poți sări prin copaci, urca în turnuri și te da cu tiroliene pe trasee de sute de metri.\r\n\r\nCreatori de modă pentru cîteva ore\r\n\r\nAlt discurs, legat de artă și inovație, am aflat la Mannequart Museum fondat de către designerul Lee Anderson. Împreună cu Maryland Fashion Institute ea încurajează tinerii artiști ce aspiră la gloria modei să creeze tinute din materiale reciclabile. Expoziția rezultată este o provocare ca orice inovație pentru ochi și suflet.

De la Moscova faci cu avionul cam o oră jumătate. Dotările aeronavelor Suhoy nu lasă loc de niciun comentariu. Moderne, confortabile. Notorietatea orașului Kazan a crescut în ultimele decenii nu numai prin investiții inteligente de marketing ci și prin fonduri masive direcționate spre practicarea sporturilor.\n\n\nDespre Kazan auziți frecvent în știrile de sport. Cel mai recent pachet a fost livrat cu prilejul desfășurării a 6 partide din Campionatul mondial de fotbal pe Stadionul Astana Arena, o construcție futuristă cu 30.000 de locuri. Futurist arată și Orașul olimpic construit pentru a găzdui, în 2013, Universiada. E populat de un număr impresionant de săli, unicat fiind cele în care se desfășoară competițiile de badminton. Despre performanțele în fotbal ale echipei Rubin Kazan ați auzit. Dar știți probabil, mai puțin despre echipa de volei masculin Zenit Kazan, un fel de Real Madrid al acestei discipline, care a câștigat 4 sezoane la rând Liga Campionilor. Marele ”suporter” al acestor performanțe este colosul Gazprom, care alocă anual 10 milioane de dolari. Așa a ajuns Kazan subiectul nr.1 în materie de sport în Rusia. Orașul cu circa 1,2 milioane de locuitori, din aproximativ 3,9 milioane cît are Tatarstanul, este Capitala sportului în Rusia. Dar în același timp a fost declarat una dintre cele 4... Capitale sportive ale lumii, alături de Dubai, Londra și Auckland. Sângele istoriei a fost dat de tătari, care s-au ”mixat” în acest ”cazan” cu rușii, în deplina armonie dintre musulmani și ortodocși. Mari iubitori de cai, s-ar putea să nu vă suprindă că aici funcționează unul dintre cele mai faimoase Hipodromuri din lume, cu 12 grajduri, clinică veterinară etc. În mod sigur vă va șoca,informația că aici funcționează și o piscină pentru cai.\n\n \n\nPrin arterele Kremlinului alb\n\nCe legătură au astea cu turismul? Păi, anual vin aici milioane de turiști o parte fiind atrași de sport dar și de către vestigiile istoriei, unele dintre ele unicat. Nu întâmplător anul trecut Federația Internațională a Jurnaliștilor și Scriitorilor de Turism (FIJET) a decernat un Golden Apple pentru atracțiile turistice ale orașulu. Amplasat pe Volga Kazan respiră prin artere de circulație moderne, cartiere pitorești precum vechiul Tatar, un veritabil muzeu în aer liber. Trebuie să alocați câteva zile pentru a descoperi atracțiile lui dar și pe cele din împrejurimi. În centrul istoric, pe Bauman Street, vă așteaptă atracțiile adoptate de lumea modernă (muzică live, cafenele și ceainării, magazine de suveniruri, săli de spectacole etc.), Transportul public este bine pus la punct iar în materie de cazare vă așteaptă circa 150 de hoteluri. În mod cert atracția principală este... Kremlinul alb.\n\nCetatea, atestată în secolul al XII-lea te cheamă cu o imagine de ansamblu nepereche: aici se află Kul Sharif, cea mai veche moschee din Rusia, un joc arhitectonic de turcoaz și alb; impunătoarea Catedrală ortodoxă a Buneivestiri (1552 este anul în care a fost terminată), ce promovează la rândul ei aceleași culori; Turnul înclinat al cetății în tonuri cărămizii, ce veghează la amintirea lui Syuyumbike, legendara regină a tătarilor. Un tur de noapte vă va dezvălui o cu totul altă perspectivă, susținută de lumini special direcționate spre clădirile emblemă.\n\nCetatea are și valențe contemporane aici aflându-se reședința oficială a Președintelui țării, muzee și galerii expoziționale. Cum turiștii au decât treaba de a strânge cât mai multe amintiri și dovezi că au fost la Kazan, vom spune că poate cea mai apropiată asemănare o putem stabili cu Cetatea Alba Iulia de la noi. Cu deosebirea că în anul 2000 Kremlinul din Kazan a fost inclus pe lista Patrimoniului cultural și natural mondial UNESCO.\n\nÎn capitala Hoardei de Aur\n\nUn alt loc încărcat de sacralitate se află tot pe Volga la aproape 180 de kilometri de Kazan. The Great Bulgar (sau Marele Bolgar), face la rândul lui parte din Patrimoniul UNESCO. E un loc magic, care strălucește de istorie. Povestea începe cu o așezare a bogarilor, strămoșii tătarilor moderni. Mărturiile civilizației lor se regăsesc în ruinele orașului-cetate, prezervat cu grijă. Site-ul este bine organizat cu o signalistică modernă care te trimite spre Marea Moschee (unde se află, atenție, cel mai mare și mai greu Coran din lume - 800 de kilograme, 2 metri înălțime, coperțile sunt realizate din malachit -, aspecte înregistrate în Guinness World Records), Marele Minaret, Mormântul Hanului etc. În 922 bolgarii au adoptat islamul așa încât în secolul al XIII-lea Cetatea Bolgar a devenit Capitala Hoardei de Aur. De atunci au fost puse fundamentele Tatarstanului modern. Ilustrarea acestei civilizații aflată la răscrucea dintre Europa și Asia, este făcută în complexul muzeal cu bijuterii, arme, veșminte, obiecte de cult, descoperite în acest perimetru. Un prânz cu specific tătar nu trebuie ocolit. El poate fi consumat la un Han Tătăresc parte dintr-un Muzeu etnografic și de Istorie, amplasat într-o rezervație naturală cu aproape 140 de hectare.\n\nÎntrebați de Ivan cel Groaznic\n\nDacă sunteți în căutarea unui loc și mai deosebit vă recomandăm insula-oraș Sviyazhsk. Și el tot în Patrimoniul UNESCO. Se află la numai 60 de kilometri de Kazan. Locul poartă amprenta fondatorului său Ivan cel Groaznic care a dorit să construiască în secolul al XVI-lea o fortăreață care să fie un punct de rezistență dar și un avanpost pentru cucerirea Kazan-ului și, deci a tătarilor. Locul s-a transformat rapid într-un simbol al culturii ruse. De pe urma acestui ”proiect” au rămas 37 de site-uri culturale și o așezare cu aproape 300 de locuitori. Majoritatea se ocupă cu întreținerea obiectivelor amintite printre care Biserica din lemn Sf. Treime (construită în 1551, într-o singură zi), cel mai vechi așezământ creștin de pe Volga; Catedrala Uspensky, unde există o reprezentare iconografică a lui Ivan cel Groaznic etc. Din 2010 autoritățile au transformat acest loc într-un obiectiv de pelerinaj cultural și religios. Au fost amenajate terenuri de echitație, un mic sat medieval cu ateliere meșteșugărești (armuri, arme ancestrale, potcoave personalizate cu numele tău), un perimetru unde se pot practica diverse sporturi ori jocuri inspirate din istoria tătarilor. Dacă vreți mai mult, coborâți spre râu și opriți-vă la Casa muzeu Trotsky. Revoluționarul bolșevic și marxist rus a fost un politician influent la începuturile existenței Uniunii Sovietice, fondator și prim comandant al Armatei Roșii și Comisar al poporului pentru apărare. Stalin l-a exclus din partid în anii 1920 fiind deportat din Uniunea Sovietică. A fost asasinat în Mexic de un agent sovietic, lăsând în urma lui teoria comunistă cunoscută sub numele de troțkism. În turul pe care-l veți face vă veți forma propria părere despre viața tumultoasă unui intelectual rus.\n\nUitați de votcă\n\nO seară cină-spectacol centrat pe legendele Tatarstanului poate închide cât se poate de natural călătoria noastră. Una dintre ele, interpretată cu devotament, se referă la copilul crescut de lupul alb și vînat de tatăl său ori povestea Hanului și a fetelor sale capturați de Hoarda de Aur. Refuzând să se declare învins el s-a transformat într-un rîu năvalnic iar fetele sale au urcat la cer și au devenit stele. Și, desigur, legenda reginei Syuyumbike și a Hanului Safa Girey. Nu a lipsit nici varianta la Romeo și Julieta, întruchipată de iubirea dintre Tahir, fiul vizirului și Zuhra, frumoasa fiică a Sultanului. În varianta rusească, mai optimistă, cele două personaje trec peste toate barierele sociale și culturale, totul încheindu-se cu happy end.

De votcă uitați. E un mit urban de care nu prea se mai ating nici rușii. E scumpă de nu face banii.\n\nV-am rămas datori cu încă ceva. De unde vine numele orașului Kazan!

De la Moscova faci cu avionul cam o oră jumătate. Dotările aeronavelor Suhoy nu lasă loc de niciun comentariu. Moderne, confortabile. Notorietatea orașului Kazan a crescut în ultimele decenii nu numai prin investiții inteligente de marketing ci și prin fonduri masive direcționate spre practicarea sporturilor.\r\n\r\n\r\nDespre Kazan auziți frecvent în știrile de sport. Cel mai recent pachet a fost livrat cu prilejul desfășurării a 6 partide din Campionatul mondial de fotbal pe Stadionul Astana Arena, o construcție futuristă cu 30.000 de locuri. Futurist arată și Orașul olimpic construit pentru a găzdui, în 2013, Universiada. E populat de un număr impresionant de săli, unicat fiind cele în care se desfășoară competițiile de badminton. Despre performanțele în fotbal ale echipei Rubin Kazan ați auzit. Dar știți probabil, mai puțin despre echipa de volei masculin Zenit Kazan, un fel de Real Madrid al acestei discipline, care a câștigat 4 sezoane la rând Liga Campionilor. Marele ”suporter” al acestor performanțe este colosul Gazprom, care alocă anual 10 milioane de dolari. Așa a ajuns Kazan subiectul nr.1 în materie de sport în Rusia. Orașul cu circa 1,2 milioane de locuitori, din aproximativ 3,9 milioane cît are Tatarstanul, este Capitala sportului în Rusia. Dar în același timp a fost declarat una dintre cele 4... Capitale sportive ale lumii, alături de Dubai, Londra și Auckland. Sângele istoriei a fost dat de tătari, care s-au ”mixat” în acest ”cazan” cu rușii, în deplina armonie dintre musulmani și ortodocși. Mari iubitori de cai, s-ar putea să nu vă suprindă că aici funcționează unul dintre cele mai faimoase Hipodromuri din lume, cu 12 grajduri, clinică veterinară etc. În mod sigur vă va șoca,informația că aici funcționează și o piscină pentru cai.\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6565,6566,6567,6568,6569,6570,6571,6572,6573,6574,6575,6576\"]\r\n\r\nPrin arterele Kremlinului alb\r\n\r\nCe legătură au astea cu turismul?

Al doilea membru din România este Hotel Epoque din București care și-a anunțat afilierea la Relais & Chateaux, la jumătatea acestui an. Procedura de aderare la Relais & Chateaux conține peste 300 de criterii de analiza. Etapele procesului includ evaluari ale comisiilor de inspectori Relais & Chateaux, audituri de calitate realizate cu caracter anonim, recenziile oaspeților clubului 5C, votul Comitetului director etc. Din cele aproximativ 120 proprietăți inspectate anual, numai o pătrime devin membri Relais & Chateaux la finalizarea procesului de selecție.\r\n\r\nBeneficiile membrilor includ: accesul la segmentul specific de clienți Relais & Chateaux, sistem propriu de rezervări directe, platforma proprie de recrutare a celor mai buni candidați pentru echipele proprietăților membre, academie de formare directă sau online și accesul la întreaga infrastructură de comunicare și promovare specifică brandului Relais & Chateaux. Comunitatea Relais & Chateaux numără peste 550 proprietăți în întreaga lume și are peste 2 milioane de clienți pe an - a subliniat Philippe Gombert, Președintele în exercițiu al Relais & Chateaux. ”Sperăm să ne dezvoltăm rețeaua în România și în sud-estul Europei și vom face din această regiune o prioritate pentru următorii ani” a mai adăugat acesta.\r\n\r\nSHERATON - investiție în SPA\r\n\r\nPrioprietarii Sheraton din București au achizitionat un teren de 1.000 de metri pătrați în vecinătatea hotelului pe care intenționează să construiască un centru SPA, o sală de conferințe de mari dimensiuni și un număr suplimentar de până la 100 de camere. Planurile de dezvoltare se vor întinde pe o perioadă de 3 ani. În prezent, hotelul Sheraton din Capitală are 270 de camere, dintre care 27 executive și un apartament prezidențial. Unitatea hotelieră va mai derula investiții majore în proiecte precum digitalizarea completă a accesului în camerele de hotel, care se va realiza prin intermediul telefoanelor de tip smartphone.\r\n\r\nALEXANDRION își face grup hotelier\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nHotelul New Montana din Sinaia a fost achiziționat de către Alexandrion Group în urma unei tranzacții ce s-a încheiat în urmă cu aproape doi ani.

McGrath ajunge la Sibiu, ”un oraș încântător, în care abundă cultura”, remarcă și Cimitirul Vesel de la Săpânța. Dintre specialitățile românești e încântat de sarmale, specialitățile de porc și pește, mămăliguța cu mujdei, iar dintre băuturi, de țuică și vinurile Fetească neagră și Negru de Drăgășani. “Dacă Ministerul român al Turismului ar acționa mai eficient, această țară ar putea să ocupe o poziție superioară în topurile cu obiective turistice de vizitat” - mai subliniază publicația britanică.\n\nPARTENERIAT ÎN DOMENIUL TURISMULUI\n\n\n\nMiniștrii Turismului din România și Israel, Bogdan Trif și Yariv Levin, au convenit să creeze o agendă comună de evenimente care vor include work-shop-uri de promovare, întâlniri B2B și, desigur, vizite reciproce de documentare la nivelul agenților de turism și mediei de specialitate.

Primele cinci ediții ale festivalului au strâns peste 15.000 participanți, sute de personalități ale vieții culturale și sociale din România și din Germania etc. “Săptămâna Haferland” își propune să atragă deopotrivă sașii întorși acasă și turiștii care vor să descopere o zonă de poveste. Acesta este cel mai mare eveniment dedicat promovării culturii săsești din Transilvania. El va include localitățile: Archita, Roadeș, Saschiz, Rupea, Criț, Bunești, Meșendorf, Cloașterf, Viscri.\n\n\" Anul acesta tema Festivalului sunt meșteșugurile tradiționale. Cred că în fiecare an avem creşteri de două cifre ale vizitatorilor şi tot mai mulţi turişti. Festival este şi un mod de promovare a zonei și specificului său etnic. Îmbucurător este faptul că dacă la început am pornit mai greu acum, la fiecare nouă ediție, doresc să participe alte localități din zonă. Așa am ajuns deja la zece şi acesta este un semn bun\", a spus Michael Schmidt, organizatorul festivalului, în cadrul unei conferinţe susţinută la Muzeul Satului din Bucureşti. Alexandru Tomescu a subliniat că pentru el Săptămâna Haferland \"este o poveste de succes şi ar trebui să învăţăm cu toţii din exemplul pe care ni l-au dat cei de acolo\", iar Caroline Fernolend, președinta Fundației Mihai Eminescu Trust, a declarat că ”scopul nostru este de a valorifica vechi tradiții și meșteșuguri, a le da o nouă utilitate și funcționalitate.

Din iunie până în octombrie Academia Rowmania vă invită la activități recreative, în centrul Bucureștiului, lângă Biblioteca Națională a României, pentru scurte momente de escapadă din forfota urbană. Asociația Ivan Patzaichin și SupAcademy România organizează pentru weekend-uri plimbări cu canotca sau pe placa de SUP (Stand Up Paddle). Kaufland România partenerul principal al Asociației, vă pune la dispoziție zonele de relaxare aflate pe pontoane plutitoare. Din agendă nu lipsesc concerte pe apă, seri de teatru și film, stand-up comedy etc. Cel mai important lucru este că niciun week-end nu va semăna cu altul!” - ne-a precizat Claudia Corneanu, reprezentanta evenimentului.\r\n\r\n”SAPTAMÂNA HAFERLAND” - maratonul meșteșugurilor\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nConcerte (superinvitat va fi violonistul Alexandru Tomescu), proiecţii de film, workshop-uri cu meşteşugari locali, preparate specifice, activităţi pentru copii, tradiționalul bal săsesc vor avea loc, în perioada 2-6 august, la cea de-a 6-a ediţie a Festivalului \"Săptămâna Haferland”. Primele cinci ediții ale festivalului au strâns peste 15.000 participanți, sute de personalități ale vieții culturale și sociale din România și din Germania etc. “Săptămâna Haferland” își propune să atragă deopotrivă sașii întorși acasă și turiștii care vor să descopere o zonă de poveste. Acesta este cel mai mare eveniment dedicat promovării culturii săsești din Transilvania. El va include localitățile: Archita, Roadeș, Saschiz, Rupea, Criț, Bunești, Meșendorf, Cloașterf, Viscri.\r\n\r\n\" Anul acesta tema Festivalului sunt meșteșugurile tradiționale. Cred că în fiecare an avem creşteri de două cifre ale vizitatorilor şi tot mai mulţi turişti. Festival este şi un mod de promovare a zonei și specificului său etnic. Îmbucurător este faptul că dacă la început am pornit mai greu acum, la fiecare nouă ediție, doresc să participe alte localități din zonă. Așa am ajuns deja la zece şi acesta este un semn bun\", a spus Michael Schmidt, organizatorul festivalului, în cadrul unei conferinţe susţinută la Muzeul Satului din Bucureşti. Alexandru Tomescu a subliniat că pentru el Săptămâna Haferland \"este o poveste de succes şi ar trebui să învăţăm cu toţii din exemplul pe care ni l-au dat cei de acolo\", iar Caroline Fernolend, președinta Fundației Mihai Eminescu Trust, a declarat că ”scopul nostru este de a valorifica vechi tradiții și meșteșuguri, a le da o nouă utilitate și funcționalitate. E un dar minunat pe care merită sa-l transmitem generațiilor următoare. (ALEX BARBU)\r\n\r\nCENTRU DE PREGĂTIRE LA CONSTANȚA\r\n\r\nColumbia Shipmanagement și United Hospitality Institute au inaugurat oficial primul centru de pregătire UHI în România, la Constanța. Cristian Dumitrescu, managerul companiei, a declarat că în cadrul institutului va fi pregătit personal pentru segmentele de bucătărie, precum bucătari, ajutori de bucătari, brutari sau patiseri, barmani, ospătari dar și cameriste.

Dacă le-ați văzut pe toate merită să vă îndreptați spre două insule ”crude”. Spre ambele puteți ajunge cu ferryboat-ul din Alexandropolis, respectiv Kavala în circa patru ore.\n\n\n\nSAMOTRACE - Insula Zeiței Niki\n\nDe la înalțime insula pare un ou uriaș aruncat de zei în Marea Egee, în nord estul Greciei. Se întinde pe aproximativ 180 de kilometri pătrați iar zona de coastă acoperă 32 de kilometri. Vizual impresionează prin verdele intens al pădurilor de pe muntele Saos, care străpunge peisajul cu vârful Feggari (1664 metri). De pe acest munte, spune Homer (doar suntem în Grecia), urmărea Poseidon, Zeul Mării, desfășurarea Războiului Troian. Totul aici se exprimă prin miturile antichității confirmate de cercetările moderne. Insula a fost populată din timpuri imemoriale de către Kares, iar apoi de către Traci. Dovezile arheologice datează din Neolitic și Epoca Bronzului așa cum certifică descoperirile din zona satului Karyotes.\n\nÎnsă faima insulei este dată de situl arhelogic ”Templul Marilor Zei”, aflat în zona Paleopolis, cu o suprafață de 20 de hectare. Drumul șerpuiește lăsând pe dreapta Muzeul de Arheologie (construit de Misiunea Arheologică Americană începând din 1938), iar pe stânga curge râul Fonias peste al cărui podeț, trecând, intri direct în istorie. Portalul lui Ptolemeu te invită în spațiul sacru din anii 285-280 î.e.n unde descoperi ruinele surprinzătorului Arsineo o construcție circulară datând din anii 500 î.e.n.; Palatul Zeilor, Rotonda, Sanctuarul, Altarul de marmură, Templul Kaveiri (Cabiriilor), locul unde a fost descoperită în 1863 Zeița cu aripi, Niki, cu o siluetă de 2,75 metri, sculptată în marmură albă. Unii spun că a fost adusă la lumină de arhelogul german A. Champoiseau, alții îl acreditează pe ambasadorul francez Saboiseau. Cert este că Niki (adică) Victoria, se află, după ce a fost reconstituită parțial din fragmentele găsite, la celebrul Luvru din Paris. Ea e admirată de milioanele de vizitatori în timp ce grecii contemporani o cheamă... acasă. Tot la acest templu s-ar fi ”convertit” la ritualuri sacre Olimpia, mama lui Alexandru cel Mare. Lăsăm în urmă ”Templul Marilor Zei”, unde a fost redeschisă după ani de modernizare, clădirea Muzeului de arhelogie.\n\n[gallery columns=\"4\" ids=\"6595,6596,6597,6598,6599,6600,6601,6602,6603,6604,6605\"]\n\nAl doilea punct de vizitat, în topul imaginar al gazdelor, este zidul de apărare al orașului antic Paleopolis, construit de pe coastele munților până la mare. Unul dintre puținele monumente rămase în picioare este Turnul Gattiluzi (ce datează din secolul X), ridicat în apropierea orășelului de buzunar Chora. El reflectă elemente din arhitectura post-bizantină. Chora are farmecul așezărilor grecești înfipte în dealuri și munți. Străduțe înguste, taverne, turn cu ceas, cafenele, magazine, panorame de poveste. La baza localității te privește elegant o copie a siluetei statuii lui Niki. Puțini știu că aceasta a fost sursă de inspirație pentru crearea siglei la fel de celebrei mărci de pantofi de sport Nike.\n\nPe insulă nu există transport public, cu excepția taxiurilor (tarife foarte accesibile), așa că insula este promovată și ca un ”rai” pentru bicicliști, trekeri, globtroteri etc. Peșteri, cascade, văi umbroase, lacuri cu ape limpezi. Hotelurile, precum Samotraki Village ori pensiunile de genul Epavlis Resort, au capacități mici de maximum 35 de camere, degajă o atmosferă plină de farmec cu aer eclectic și foarte familiar. De obicei în prețul camerei este inclus micul dejun, dar toate au și un restaurant putând să asigure la cerere alte tipuri de mese.\n\nCât despre gastronomie, carnea de capră la proțap, fructele de mare și măslinele sunt în meniurile tuturor. Gustul este inconfundabil. Pentru o experiență udată cu vin local, alb, sec și rece toată lumea recomandă ”Akcrogiali” pentru produsele de pește. Nu ratați și o vizită la ”Melmar”, o vinărie nouă, modernă aflată la poalele Muntelui Saos. Proprietarul se ocupă de nave și ferryboat-uri iar copiii lui, de plantație și vinuri. Nouă ne-au plăcut, din vinurile prezentate la testat Malagoulia - alb, sec, medaliat cu aur în 2016, un roze sec Mavroudi și, un roșu Mavroudi Syrah.\n\nLEMNOS - argilă, Hefaistos și mistere\n\nAm putea să o declarăm soră cu Samotrace. Dacă ar avea aripi, una ar atinge ca o briză Muntele Athos, prin golful Bourmas, iar cealaltă coastele golfului Moudros, înspre sud. A fost cel mai important punct strategic militar din Egee, multe dintre armatele lumii încercând să-l cucerească. Insula s-a deschis în ultimii ani când importanța militară a scăzut. Administrația locală, inspirându-se din experiența altor insule, s-a pus serios pe treabă pentru a se promova și a atrage cât mai mulți turiști spre Lemnos. Mâncare specifică e, cazare în proprietăți de mici capacități fermecătoare (majoritatea apart-hoteluri și pensiuni) e, plaje de top mondial cu golfulețe private, înșirate pe 260 de kilometri, toate sunt la locul lor. Integrate într-un peisaj ce amintește de liniștea de la începutul lumii. Ideal loc de vacanțe.\n\nCe să faci la Lemnos? Firește, o incursiune în mitologie. Locul a devenit casa zeului Hefaistos, soțul frumoasei Afrodita, fierarul cel urât aruncat din Olimp de către tatăl lui... Zeus. Hefaistos și-a vindecat rănile cu argilă și apele termale existente pe insulă. Primii locuitori, preistoricii Sintians, sunt renumiți pentru crearea primului Parlament din lume. Filoctet, eroul mușcat de un șarpe veninos în timpul Războiului Troian, și-a recăpătat și el puterile pe această insulă. Tot cu miraculoasa argilă. Herodot amintește că aceasta era comercializată în întreaga lume, în formă de pastile rotunde marcate cu efigia Zeiței Artemis. Numit ”Terra Sigillata”, el este amintit în perioada bizantină, în lumea arabă, în Europa etc. Argila pare să fi fost un antidot foarte eficient pentru multe boli, până în 1916 când documentele încep să-l uite în vârtejul descoperirilor medicale. Pe nedrept, pentru că, spun grecii, acest produs a fost primul medicament standardizat din lume, cu origini cunoscute și protejate. Sigur, nu veniți în vacanță la Lemnos pentru medicamente. Dar arheologii confirmă prin descoperirile făcute, cel puțin veridicitate acestei legende.\n\nȘi acum la drum. Puteți să vă umpleți timpul liber plecând spre situl arheologic Poliochne unde cercetătorii au scos la suprafață o parte din orașul mitologic și Templul Cabiriilor. Aici au identificat peștera în care a fost abandonat Filoctet. Totul datează din mileniul 3 î.e.n. Artefactele, obiectele de cult și cele casnice, bijuteriile descoperite sunt amprente grăitoare ale acelor timpuri. De altfel în denumirile localităților veți găsi și Ifaistos, și Cabiria, Kalliope, Dafne, Kallithea... aproape toate zeițele olimpiene sunt omagiate. Nu ratați nici Teatrul Antic din Hefaistos, bine conservat și înconjurat de plantații cu flori de dafin. Liniște și zero poluare. La nici 6 kilometri te așteaptă Myrina, pe o creastă de munte cu o panoramă spre mare de neuitat. Suntem în capitala insulei Lemnos străjuită de ruinele fortăreței construite de Împăratul Andronicus I Comnenus, în secolul XI. Forma actuală datează însă din secolul XIII. Casele tradiționale sunt făcute din piatră iar culorile roșu și grena dau viață acestor mici fortărețe. Istoria contemporană a insulei a fost marcată de războaie și stăpâniri succesive. Primul Război mondial și-a lăsat aici o parte din eroi, majoritatea soldați australieni tineri și surori medicale din detașamentele canadiene. 365 de soldați sunt comemorați în Cimitrul din Portianou. Ei au căzut în luptele pentru ocuparea Strâmtorii Dardanele dar și în timpul celor de la Kallipoli. Mii de turiști vin anual din Australia, Noua Zeelandă, Egipt, India, Franța, Canada și Marea Britanie pentru a-i omagia pe cei dispăruți. E un alt loc pe unde merită să treceți pentru a aprinde flacăra unei amintiri. Plecând de aici nu puteți să ratați Muzeul Istoriei Maritime din Moudros care vă va completa informațiile despre evoluția insulei. Surpriza noastră a fost și de natură lingvistică pentru că ghida ne-a vorbit în românește, amintindu-și cu plăcere de Iași, unde a absolvit Facultatea de medicină. Gastronomia și vinurile vă lăsăm să le descoperiți singuri. Vă mai spunem doar atât: că faimosul vin de Limnos (sau Lemnos) are gustul mitologiei. Agamemnon s-a luptat cu dușmanii în timpul Războiului Troian, dar și cu proprii soldați care în loc să se arunce în luptă se ascundeau în locuri răcoroase și beau vinul dulce de Limnos. Argonauții s-au oprit aici și s-au delectat cu acest vin iar Aristofan l-a lăudat în lucrarea sa Pace. Pe noi ne așteaptă ferryboat-ul care ne readuce la Kavala. Și de acolo spre Salonic și București.\n\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\n\nDOCUMENTARE REALIZATĂ CU SPRIJINUL BIROULUI DE TURISM AL GRECIEI DE LA BUCUREȘTI\n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n ','Doua insule in care miturile bat viata - CUM E LA ALTII nr.169','','inherit','closed','closed','','6513-autosave-v1','','','2019-02-03 15:35:04','2019-02-03 13:35:04','',6513,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2019/02/03/6513-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6595,1,'2019-02-03 15:34:19','2019-02-03 13:34:19','','Insula-Samothraki1','','inherit','open','closed','','insula-samothraki1-2','','','2019-02-03 15:34:19','2019-02-03 13:34:19','',6513,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Insula-Samothraki1-1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6596,1,'2019-02-03 15:34:20','2019-02-03 13:34:20','','Insula-Samothraki2','','inherit','open','closed','','insula-samothraki2','','','2019-02-03 15:34:20','2019-02-03 13:34:20','',6513,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Insula-Samothraki2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6597,1,'2019-02-03 15:34:20','2019-02-03 13:34:20','','Insula-Samothraki3','','inherit','open','closed','','insula-samothraki3','','','2019-02-03 15:34:20','2019-02-03 13:34:20','',6513,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Insula-Samothraki3.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6598,1,'2019-02-03 15:34:21','2019-02-03 13:34:21','','Insula-Samothraki4','','inherit','open','closed','','insula-samothraki4','','','2019-02-03 15:34:21','2019-02-03 13:34:21','',6513,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Insula-Samothraki4.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6599,1,'2019-02-03 15:34:22','2019-02-03 13:34:22','','Insula-Samothraki5','','inherit','open','closed','','insula-samothraki5','','','2019-02-03 15:34:22','2019-02-03 13:34:22','',6513,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Insula-Samothraki5.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6600,1,'2019-02-03 15:34:22','2019-02-03 13:34:22','','Insula-Samothraki6','','inherit','open','closed','','insula-samothraki6','','','2019-02-03 15:34:22','2019-02-03 13:34:22','',6513,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Insula-Samothraki6.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6601,1,'2019-02-03 15:34:23','2019-02-03 13:34:23','','Insula-Samothraki7','','inherit','open','closed','','insula-samothraki7','','','2019-02-03 15:34:23','2019-02-03 13:34:23','',6513,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Insula-Samothraki7.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6602,1,'2019-02-03 15:34:24','2019-02-03 13:34:24','','Insula-Samothraki8','','inherit','open','closed','','insula-samothraki8','','','2019-02-03 15:34:24','2019-02-03 13:34:24','',6513,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Insula-Samothraki8.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6603,1,'2019-02-03 15:34:25','2019-02-03 13:34:25','','Insula-Samothraki9','','inherit','open','closed','','insula-samothraki9','','','2019-02-03 15:34:25','2019-02-03 13:34:25','',6513,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Insula-Samothraki9.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6604,1,'2019-02-03 15:34:25','2019-02-03 13:34:25','','Insula-Samothraki10','','inherit','open','closed','','insula-samothraki10','','','2019-02-03 15:34:25','2019-02-03 13:34:25','',6513,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Insula-Samothraki10.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6605,1,'2019-02-03 15:34:26','2019-02-03 13:34:26','','Insula-Samothraki11','','inherit','open','closed','','insula-samothraki11','','','2019-02-03 15:34:26','2019-02-03 13:34:26','',6513,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Insula-Samothraki11.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6606,1,'2019-02-03 15:35:22','2019-02-03 13:35:22','Corfu, Santorini, Creta, Pafos, Mikonos, Hydra, Poros, Egina, Zakintos.

Locul a devenit casa zeului Hefaistos, soțul frumoasei Afrodita, fierarul cel urât aruncat din Olimp de către tatăl lui... Zeus. Hefaistos și-a vindecat rănile cu argilă și apele termale existente pe insulă. Primii locuitori, preistoricii Sintians, sunt renumiți pentru crearea primului Parlament din lume. Filoctet, eroul mușcat de un șarpe veninos în timpul Războiului Troian, și-a recăpătat și el puterile pe această insulă. Tot cu miraculoasa argilă. Herodot amintește că aceasta era comercializată în întreaga lume, în formă de pastile rotunde marcate cu efigia Zeiței Artemis. Numit ”Terra Sigillata”, el este amintit în perioada bizantină, în lumea arabă, în Europa etc. Argila pare să fi fost un antidot foarte eficient pentru multe boli, până în 1916 când documentele încep să-l uite în vârtejul descoperirilor medicale. Pe nedrept, pentru că, spun grecii, acest produs a fost primul medicament standardizat din lume, cu origini cunoscute și protejate. Sigur, nu veniți în vacanță la Lemnos pentru medicamente. Dar arheologii confirmă prin descoperirile făcute, cel puțin veridicitate acestei legende.\r\n\r\nȘi acum la drum. Puteți să vă umpleți timpul liber plecând spre situl arheologic Poliochne unde cercetătorii au scos la suprafață o parte din orașul mitologic și Templul Cabiriilor. Aici au identificat peștera în care a fost abandonat Filoctet. Totul datează din mileniul 3 î.e.n. Artefactele, obiectele de cult și cele casnice, bijuteriile descoperite sunt amprente grăitoare ale acelor timpuri. De altfel în denumirile localităților veți găsi și Ifaistos, și Cabiria, Kalliope, Dafne, Kallithea... aproape toate zeițele olimpiene sunt omagiate. Nu ratați nici Teatrul Antic din Hefaistos, bine conservat și înconjurat de plantații cu flori de dafin. Liniște și zero poluare. La nici 6 kilometri te așteaptă Myrina, pe o creastă de munte cu o panoramă spre mare de neuitat. Suntem în capitala insulei Lemnos străjuită de ruinele fortăreței construite de Împăratul Andronicus I Comnenus, în secolul XI. Forma actuală datează însă din secolul XIII. Casele tradiționale sunt făcute din piatră iar culorile roșu și grena dau viață acestor mici fortărețe. Istoria contemporană a insulei a fost marcată de războaie și stăpâniri succesive. Primul Război mondial și-a lăsat aici o parte din eroi, majoritatea soldați australieni tineri și surori medicale din detașamentele canadiene. 365 de soldați sunt comemorați în Cimitrul din Portianou. Ei au căzut în luptele pentru ocuparea Strâmtorii Dardanele dar și în timpul celor de la Kallipoli. Mii de turiști vin anual din Australia, Noua Zeelandă, Egipt, India, Franța, Canada și Marea Britanie pentru a-i omagia pe cei dispăruți. E un alt loc pe unde merită să treceți pentru a aprinde flacăra unei amintiri. Plecând de aici nu puteți să ratați Muzeul Istoriei Maritime din Moudros care vă va completa informațiile despre evoluția insulei. Surpriza noastră a fost și de natură lingvistică pentru că ghida ne-a vorbit în românește, amintindu-și cu plăcere de Iași, unde a absolvit Facultatea de medicină. Gastronomia și vinurile vă lăsăm să le descoperiți singuri. Vă mai spunem doar atât: că faimosul vin de Limnos (sau Lemnos) are gustul mitologiei. Agamemnon s-a luptat cu dușmanii în timpul Războiului Troian, dar și cu proprii soldați care în loc să se arunce în luptă se ascundeau în locuri răcoroase și beau vinul dulce de Limnos. Argonauții s-au oprit aici și s-au delectat cu acest vin iar Aristofan l-a lăudat în lucrarea sa Pace. Pe noi ne așteaptă ferryboat-ul care ne readuce la Kavala. Și de acolo spre Salonic și București.\r\n\r\nDOINA & MARIAN CONSTANTINESCU\r\n\r\nDOCUMENTARE REALIZATĂ CU SPRIJINUL BIROULUI DE TURISM AL GRECIEI DE LA BUCUREȘTI\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n ','Doua insule in care miturile bat viata - CUM E LA ALTII nr.169','','inherit','closed','closed','','6513-revision-v1','','','2019-02-03 15:35:22','2019-02-03 13:35:22','',6513,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/2019/02/03/6513-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6607,1,'2019-02-03 15:36:30','2019-02-03 13:36:30','','Haferland Crit 16engl','','inherit','open','closed','','haferland-crit-16engl','','','2019-02-03 15:36:30','2019-02-03 13:36:30','',6515,'http://www.travellermagazin.ro/arhiva/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Haferland-Crit-16engl.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6608,1,'2019-02-03 15:36:40','2019-02-03 13:36:40','Le Bistrot Francais became last year the foirst member in Romania of the prestigious international organization Relais & Chateaux.
