Abstract: As it is known, cultural heritage is one of the important tourist resources which is the basis of cultural tourism. If we look at the historical stages of tourism development, people have been traveling for knowledge since ancient times. Cultural heritage is an inexhaustible resource for the economic and social development of the country or local community; Discovery, protection, interpretation and use of this most precious resource is a necessary condition for the social and economic progress of the country. Cultural tourism has become an important economic resource for many countries. Rationally planned national tourism creates jobs, improves the local infrastructure and, accordingly, the living conditions of the local community. Sometimes the presence of visitors to cultural heritage sites contributes to the deterioration of the physical condition and environment of historical sites. The task of cultural heritage monument managers is not only to avoid threats to cultural heritage monuments in order to better protect them, but also to direct work towards how the time spent at the monument can be made more pleasant and interesting for visitors. And finally, as a conclusion, I would like to quote the opinion of the Venice Charter about the protection and restoration of monuments - "Historical monuments created by generations of people, which carry the message of the past, remain a living witness of their centuries-old traditions. Humanity is convinced day by day that people have common values and will pay respect to historical monuments as a common heritage and the common responsibility to protect them for future generations is also recognized. It is the duty of each of us to pass on this legacy to future generations in all its richness of authenticity.
Key words: Cultural tourism, cultural heritage, Heritage tourism.
