The article focuses on a private museum of a hybrid character, Parco Museo Jalari, as an example of reception and understanding of the cultural heritage of Sicily. Trinkaria, with its historical, cultural, natural and climatic background, has been a valued destination of educational and artistic trips for ages. These factors made an impact on the Sicilians’ awareness, significantly influencing the ways of expressing and understanding their identity. The analysis of the park structure, of the creation history, as well as that of the exhibition and festival activity, shows the way in which it reflects the island’s history and culture, the way in which it defines itself or the extent in which it caters for the needs of different cultural tourists. The starting point of the elaboration is an attempt to capture Sicilian individuality reflected in the trip accounts written by the great ones of this world as well as in the meanders of history. Next, after introducing the museum context of Jalari, the profile of the park is presented: its history, structure and activity. The summary of the article exposes the extent to which the theoretical assumptions have been fulfilled and to which they are useful for the protection and promotion of the region’s culture. It also presents the value of the park’s offer in the context of cultural tourism. As for the complete lack of texts in Polish describing the park, the primary aim of this article is to bring the idea, the stages of creation and the functioning of the park closer to Polish cultural, and museum, tourism researchers as well as Polish reads interested in the subject.

The article discusses the subject from Polish professional literature relatively well-described and gradually widely known within professional circles, that is ‘theme tourist routes which use historic and cultural buildings and themes. Considering earlier publications referring to the subject of tourist routes in general [e.g. Kruczek 2007, Szewczyk 2008] and to cultural tourist routes in particular [Mikos v. Rohrscheidt 2008], it is not necessary to repeat the information about the routes and their descriptions. Therefore, the author – apart from presenting the idea of cultural routes in the perspective of Polish and foreign professional literature – focuses reader’s attention on two issues. They are both vital for proper functioning and development of the cultural tourist routes offer in Poland. Moreover, the issues can especially influence the extent to which these products are used by tourism organizers and individual tourists. The first issue regards proper classification of cultural tourist routes, and the problem of consequent use of correct terminology in professional literature, information materials and in setting up the trails. The second one is a set of requirements for creating new and developing the existing cultural tourist routes in Poland.

The article is about searching for cultural authenticity of the Moroccan society – “the country of setting sun” – in the perspective of booming tourism. The first part of the article presents a short characteristic of some chosen aspects of the unusually colorful Moroccan culture. Then, the most important reasons for the disappearance of the genuine face of the country, seized by tourist industry and striving for better future as well as for recognition on the world market, are shown. The attempt to adopt the rules imposed by “the modern times momentum” is often connected with some form of sacrifice as well as the loss of essence of identity and individuality. The next part of the article touches the issue of ethics in tourism. Certain examples help to picture the ethical attitudes visible in the relations between Moroccans and the arriving tourists. Next, the article presents the phenomenon of folclorization and the cultural “show” for tourists, which results from the cultural authenticity disappearance.

The aim of the article is to present journalist genre called the feuilleton, developing since the Enlightenment period, as a precious source of knowledge which is useful in historical research and in cultural tourism for both cultural tourism organizers and tourists themselves. The subject was described with the use of excellent 19th century series of feuilletons by Marceli Motty called the “Letters of Wojtuś from Zawady”, which are a treasury of information about Poznań and its inhabitants in the 19th century. Marceli Motty draws the picture of the Greater Poland’s capital in the 1860s. Rich language and unusual timeliness of the feuilleton makes them an interesting completion of the guiding commentary meant for inquisitive cultural tourists who are not satisfied only with general or guiding publications. The “Letters of Wojtuś from Zawady”, as well as feuilletons of other authors from that period, can enrich Poznań’s biographical, literary, museum, urban, educational offer, as they constitute an excellent material for designing new tourist-cultural routes around the city of Poznań. The routes can consider a widely-understood cultural theme (visual arts, literature, theater, music), biographical-literary (outstanding citizens of Greater Poland as well as famous culture creators), socio-traditional (everyday lives of the city inhabitants in the period of annexation, fashion, bon ton, language uniqueness, the activity of societies and organizations, education), etc.

The article attempts to define and classify erotic tourism (sex tourism). The demonstrated ways in which this phenomenon is covered in professional literature point out to substantial differences between authors, which means there are problems with an unambiguous definition of the phenomenon. It can be assumed that the problems with defining sex tourism are reflected in difficulties with classifying the phenomenon in the generic structure of tourism. Analyzing the available sources, the author also tries to establish if sex tourism can be recognized as a form of cultural tourism. The analysis described in the article should be treated as an introduction to broader considerations on the subject of erotic tourism, especially because the problem – with a few exceptions – has not been of much interest to Polish scientists yet.

The article presents the issue of cultural tourism development in planning documents of some chosen European countries. The analysis is based on those countries which, in general, are not considered to be the top tourist destinations in Europe (the volume of inbound tourism in those countries does not exceed 10 million tourist arrivals annually). Several elements of strategic planning have been analyzed, e.g. the SWOT analysis, vision, strategic goals, basic tourist products and the institutions responsible for the cultural tourism development. It has been established that cultural tourism is strongly emphasized in national planning documents and, in some cases, it becomes (or is supposed to become) one of the main tourist products.

Tourism is considered to be the strongest sector of the economy in the world. In regional development it serves as a tool of economic, social, environmental and cultural increase. Today tourism becomes not only an economic system but also a cultural phenomenon. Tourism as a way of life or as a product of human plays an important role in cultural science, specifically in culturology. The article bears a complex view on the issue of the relationship between tourism and culture in which the bilateral effect is stressed. While the impact of culture in tourism is regarded as positive, even further fundamental for tourism realisation, the opinion of a tourism impact on culture are different. On one hand tourism is considered to be a starter of globalisation and other negative cultural values. On other hand positive effects as an increase of cultural identity and conservation of cultural heritage is emphasized. In article the main view is dedicated to balance between cultural and economic opinions where positive effects are spread to both areas.
