Local traditions from the point of view of the host community and Šumava Mts. visitors
Těšitel, Jan ; Kušová, Drahomíra ; Bartoš, Michael
Sociological survey within the project "Strategy of sustainable development of the Šumava Biosphere Reserve" covers a broad range of traditions preserved in particular villages within the Šumava Mts. region. According to this survey 90% of local population claim that certain traditional habits exist in their village. On the other hand, interest in local tradition is also demonstrated by empirical results concerning the visitors to the region. These results were obtained during a questionnaire survey related to the project "The role of tourism in the Šumava Mts.region development". Only less than 30% of the visitors encountered some form of local tradition. Comparison of the results of both surveys showed certain disproportion between the potential and its realization. Our study aims at the evaluation of the extent to which local traditions actually contribute to tourism development within the region.
