TOURISM RESOURCES INHERENT IN LOCAL PRODUCTS IN TRANSCARPATHIA

Summary/Abstract: Transcarpathia is one of the regions in Europe where, over the centuries, people of different nationalities and religions have settled as a result of numerous empire changes, resulting in a very unique ethno-cultural environment in the area. Most of the nationalities, such as Hungarians, Romanians, Slovaks, Swabians, Romani, Ruthenians, Ukrainians and Russians, still preserve their ethnographic, cultural and religious traditions and culinary characteristics. The centuries of coexistence, a mixture of languages, different folk traditions and gastronomy, resulted in the special features of today's Transcarpathia: unique hospitality, folk art and culinary diversity, as well as local products also referred to in Hungarian as the Carpathicums. The latter are also the starting point of our research, in which we try to provide an insight into the diverse range of products related to the traditional production culture in Transcarpathia, as well as to highlight the tourism opportunities hidden in them.
