Cross border cooperation –promoter of tourism development



areas as attractive and interesting destinations, to save identity of place, for tourists
from the entire world.

The problem areas still are cross border areas with Russia and Byelorussia because it
is external EU border now. According the statistical indicators this area has the lowest
rates in development processes and living conditions are lowest. According the
territorial development programmes of these districts, the one of the main priorities is
to promote tourism development. Because it is possibility to increase or to make same
kind if income for these people in border area, but reality of tourism development in
cross border area is not attractive for tourist from formal institutional point of view.
There is requirement to receive permission of entrance in this area. It is not a factor
that promotes tourism development in cross border area; this is threat for tourism
entrepreneurs in border area. It means that the problem of this border area
development will increase in future.

Border areas with Estonia and Latvia have largest hope of tourism development
increasing by EU enlargement.
