Sažetak
Landscapes contain and create value for tourism destinations worldwide and have wide influences on the perception of a destination. The landscapes with its specific geographical and climatic features are perceived as pull factors (attraction factors) to tourists. In European countries agricultural landscapes are highly valued both by local population and tourists attracting them to the destination. Agricultural production, especially vineyards, olives, orchards and animals in the landscape create an original experience of the destination. On the case of several European countries with and without maritime surroundings we have chosen attractive tourism destinations with highly attractive landscapes. The paper shows examples of Slovakia, Czech Republic as non-maritime countries opposite to Mediterranean countries as Croatia and Slovenia. The main aim of this paper was to assess the importance of agricultural landscapes in the context of tourism. Along with the gastronomic offer and cultural heritage, the agricultural landscapes create high values for tourism destinations. Tourists perceive these features as pull factors and grade highly their value. Furthermore these features are even more highly valued and cherished by the local population.
