The classic concept of a tourist offer belongs to the past. Today, tourists are motivated by visiting interesting destinations, rich with offer founded on autochthonous elements valorization. Culture, being a basic offer element in cultural tourism, should become a part of a so called creative tourism as well, in which a tourist – visitor is not only a tourist attractions passive observer, but an active participant. Croatian tourist product indicates surfeiting and a certain «tiredness», so the classic forms of tourist offer, already behind us, have lost their key role of attracting tourist masses. On the other hand, Croatia overflows with valuable tourist resources, many of which bear a stamp of autochthtony. Such resources, allowing for some minor efforts, can be presented to tourists through adequate tourist valorization. However, the succesfull inclusion of those valuable resources in tourist offer is to be preceded by raising public awareness (and self-confidence) of our country culture wealth. Music heritage is just one of the elements in Croatian tourism resource richness. One of the Croatian music heritage basic characteristics is the fact that each Croatian region is distinguished by a specific, characteristic music heritage. That is applicable to Istria as well, while the Istrian music scale, unique in the world, suggested for inclusion in UNESCO List of World Heritage, deserves a «special treatment». In this work, the authors point to the necessity of tourist offer enrichment by the inclusion of cultural resources concerned with music, particularly in the case of Istrian region. That should be achieved through primarily organized offer of specific cultural itineraries, «Istrian music Paths», as a kind of «mix» of this cultural tourism form and other selective tourism types. Moreover, in work is stated that tourism, through self-resources valorization, will retroactively have an impact on this valuable cultural resource preserving.

Recently, there has been a shift in the attributes of several museums in Ubud in order to attract more tourists to visit museums as cultural tourism attractions. Some museums have expanded their collections and add other attributes to complement their main collections, which as the potential to alter the idealism, functions, and roles of museums. Another challenge faced by museum operators is the development of other tourist attractions, such as the addition of tourism destination attributes in Ubud, which was initially known as tourism destinations that offered art and culture such as dance performances and museums, and now have expanded into yoga destination, adventure destination, and so on.

<em>With the rapid development of globalization, the trans-cultural communication has become more and more frequent. Tourism has become more popular with people as one of the ways in trans-cultural communication. In travelling, people cannot only spread their own culture, but also study other cultures. However, it is the transnational tourism that makes all kinds of languages encounter and gives rise to the differences among these languages. Thus, translation is one important way to solve this problem. As one of the ways in trans-cultural communication, tourism translation has its vital function. Therefore, a number of researches have been done by many famous experts and scholars. However, my literature search indicates that the researches about tourism translation abroad are relatively few, even though there are many at home. As far as China as a whole is concerned, Hubei Province boasts rich and abundant cultural relics. The cultural resources of Hubei Province are heterogeneous yet diversified, including Chu culture, Three Kingdoms culture, “Red Culture” related to the revolution under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, and so on. Most cities, towns and villages in Hubei Province are endowed with these cultural resources among which the Three Kingdoms culture is one of the main cultural resources in the province. The Three Kingdoms cultural tourism is concentrated in the cities of Jingzhou and Xiangyang where there are currently many problems with the translations of the scenic areas or spots. This paper firstly discusses the significant role of the Three Kingdoms culture in the construction and development of cultural tourism in Hubei Province. Then, referring to the present translation situation in the Three Kingdoms cultural attractions in Jingzhou City and Xiangyang City, it analyzes the problems existing in the Three Kingdoms cultural tourism translation in Hubei Province. According to the analysis, it puts forward the countermeasures, strategies, methods and principles to solve the problems.</em>

Napjaink gyorsan változó fogyasztói trendjei folyamatos megújulásra ösztönzik a turizmuságazat szereplőit. A dunai szállodahajó-turizmus a szabadidős célú turisztikai utazások feltörekvő részterülete, ugyanakkor a hosszú távon is kiemelkedő gazdasági teljesítmény fenntartásához szükség van a termékkonstrukció időszakos megújítására. Jelen tanulmány a dunai szállodahajóturizmus alapismérveit, piaci (keresleti-kínálati) jellemzőit foglalja össze a témakörben publikált folyóiratcikkek elemzésén keresztül. Bemutatja továbbá a piacvezető vállalatok (Tauck, Avalon Waterways, Crystal Cruises, Uniworld River Cruises, Viking River Cruises, Scenic River Cruises) aktuális (2020-2022-re szóló) termékkínálatát. A kvalitatív kutatás során 326 utazási csomag áttekintésére került sor, mely rámutatott a kulturális turisztikai attrakciók termékkínálatban betöltött kiemelkedő szerepére. Az eredmények alátámasztják, hogy számos turisztikai termék (például: természeti vonzerők, egészség- és gyógyturizmus) hiányzik a jelenlegi termékkonstrukcióból, melyeknek a kínálatba történő beépítése elősegítheti a célcsoport bővítését, ami a recesszió utáni időszakban hozzájárulhat a dunai szállodahajózás gazdasági teljesítményének javulásához. Tourism is shaped by rapidly changing consumer trends. Cruise tourism on the Danube is an emerging part of leisure tourism, but at the same time, to maintain outstanding economic performance in the long run, it is necessary to periodically renew the product portfolio. The following study summarizes the basic characteristics and market (supply-demand) features of Danube cruise tourism by a systematic literature review. The study presents the current (2020-2022) supply of market-leading companies (Tauck, Avalon Waterways, Crystal Cruises, Uniworld River Cruises, Viking River Cruises, Scenic River Cruises) by content analysis. Using qualitative research, 326 travel packages were reviewed, in which the dominant role of cultural tourist attractions was clear. The results confirm that many tourism products (e.g., natural attractions, medical tourism) are missing from the product range. Their addition could improve the economic performance of Danube cruise tourism in the post-recession period by expanding the target group.
