Abstract: The economy of knowledge facilitates the collaboration between cultural professionals worldwide, the small-scale specialization stage being surpassed. This phenomenon leads to the possibility of a broader promotion of cultural products and the emergence of a global type culture. Culture and tourism have a reciprocal beneficial relationship, which can consolidate the impact of attractiveness and competitiveness of the regions and the countries in their development. Culture is a more and more important element of the tourist product, which, also, creates distinctively on an agglomerated market, at a world level, new metamorphoses of the local, regional and national tourist product. At the same time, tourism offers a very important means of consolidation of culture and the creation of incomes which can support and consolidate the cultural heritage, the cultural production and creativeness. The creation of a strong relationship between tourism and culture can help new !
destinations become themselves more attractive and more competitive as places to live, to visit and to work or to invest in their sustainable development. The cultural tourism may offer alternative sources of income for the rural localities, cities, areas where the traditional industries have declined and whose economies or local communities have suffered. A flourishing cultural economy may improve the social and economical status of a city and may positively contribute to the life of the local communities. Beyond the traces of the past, the landscapes and the cultural treasures of Romania, what the traveller or the cultural tourist discovers is the spirit of the place he/she visits, the vital energy of the people he/she meets. Though strongly attached to their cultural norms and traditional values, these are special tourist flow gradually embraced contemporary history, the rapid processes of modernization of today's world, globalization and standardization in progress.
