Tourism – a kind of recreation, one of the types of active recreation, in which recovery efficiency is combined with therapeutic activities. Spa and health tourism for each individual, because it passes depending on age, illness, income, and other factors that influence tourist motives. Also, this motivation may be related to the ecologically clean area of tourist accommodation (motels, boarding houses, hotels, etc.). For this there is environmental activity, the importance of which is constantly increasing due to regional and global impacts of man on nature, involving an increasing number of lands and waters in economic activity. The result is the destruction of the environment (air, water, soil) industrial and agricultural wastes, soil erosion, degradation of forests means there is less variety of flora and fauna disappear and picturesque landscapes.

Importance of the environment as a base for tourism. According to the forecast of the WTO, the interest of society to issues of environmental protection in 2020 will increase. The population of the world is alarmed by the violation of ecology. It fires and smog in South East Asia, the increase in world reserves are not under-qualified for use of water (from 1/4 to 2/3) etc. For successful tourism development it is important to preserve and multiply the natural resources. The environment plays an important role in the development of the tourism industry.

Intelligent use of local landscapes and monuments for tourism should be encouraged.

Thus, the new tourism project should be planned to preserve and improve the environment.
