Abstract. Our work aims to contribute to a better knowledge of how the countryside in the south of Romania and, in particular, in Călăraşi County, the existing values stored here, as well as those ignored or forgotten address the complex issue of rural tourism in an area with tourism potential but poorly known and promoted. Integrating agriculture into the market is ensured by strengthening the private type of economic organization in which natural processes go hand in hand with economic mechanisms in a manner that creates a balance of organic demand – demand. For this purpose, open development strategies are needed that exploit the advantages created by the dominant share of private ownership in agriculture and ensure intensive development to achieve competitive supply of agricultural products and an expanded market for all types of farms, with wide access to market products and production factors. Our paper makes a diagnosis of the evaluated space arguments and outlines a possible strategy to develop tourism in the studied area. Sustainable development and the implications for the tourism development concept is put into a complex, multidimensional perspective, while the contents of general tourism and of rural tourism, in particular, is integrated into this development. Seasonal and permanent tourism activities can be provided by exploiting the rational development of settlements and the existence of equal opportunities for development.
