Potentials of cultural-historical and tourism heritage for the development of tourism in the Timok region

In recent years, the term "industrial tourism" has been increasingly used in the literature. It describes an area that includes industrial monuments and abandoned buildings, and above all rare ones that are still in function. Industrial tourism includes all plants used for food processing, wood processing and textile industry, there are also mills, ports, mines, car and aviation industry, shipyards, etc. Within the doctoral dissertation entitled "Potentials of cultural-historical and economic heritage for the development of industrial tourism in the Timok region", a research was conducted that deals with the growing interest of industrial tourism in Eastern Serbia, more precisely in the Timok region. This branch of tourism is no longer a sphere of interest only for certain groups of technical experts, but also for regular tourists who are interested in touring certain regions. The aim of the research is to present the possibilities for the development of industrial tourism in the Timok region, as well as to obtain data on the current situation. The research is based on the experiential information of tourism workers who, due to the nature of their work and interests, are relevant to the proposed topic. The surveyed respondents are employed in the field of tourism in various positions, as well as students who are educated in the field of tourism. The data obtained during the research indicate respondents believe that the media do not sufficiently inform potential tourists about industrial tourism attractions, the potential of the tourist offer, but also about the Timok region itself, both locally and beyond, in Serbia and abroad. Such data indicate the possibility of improvement through the application of an adequate strategy to promote and inform potential users, as well as the insufficient usage of the industrial potential of the region itself. Investing certain resources in the marketing and development of industrial tourism would create additional demand, and this would result in the improvement of the tourist offer. Valorization of industrial heritage in Eastern Serbia can stimulate regional identity, revitalize the area and create additional tourist attractions. Plans and results from certain projects of this type are very important for the region, but also for the state

ANALIZA MULTIFUNKCIONALNIH SPORTSKIH CENTARA SA PRIMEROM KOMBANK ARENE

Modern sports facilities in the world today do not only meet the needs of sports, rooms for trainers and competition features for athletes and sports industry, but also a lot of other functions in the field of shopping, entertainment, hospitality, educational and even political services. These modern sports complexes resemble increasingly modern supermarkets, in appearance, multi- functionality, organization, marketing, consumer orientation of the population. They present more complex open and closed areas and facilities, functionally related to the rationalization and cost- effective not only to the interests of users (audience, performers), but also to the interests of the owners (shareholders, government, individuals or organizations). Objects themselves are building systems and architectural standards, local traditions and market needs of the population, as well as legal regulations, limited improvisations and deficiencies in construction and the usage of their space. Kombank arena is also a product of the achieved level of science, society, standards and requirements of its customers. City of Belgrade, as the founder, directed the building area of 48,000 sqm, with six floors, maximum height of 36 meters, the range of 132x102 meters and cost about 70 million euros to sports and cultural events (sports competition events and concerts in all musical genres, several cultural events and political rallies), while ignoring trade and catering facilities. Based on the foregoing, it can be determined that the program in Belgrade is similar to many programs like Madison Square Garden and the United Center, which will be used to compare in this workModerni sportski objekti u svetu zadovoljavaju ne samo sportske potrebe, kao prostori za trenažne i takmičarske funkcije sportista i sportskih grana, već i niz drugih funkcija iz oblasti trgovačkih, zabavnih, ugostiteljskih, obrazovnih, pa čak i političkih usluga. Ovi moderni sportski kompleksi sve više liče na savremene megamarkete, po izgledu, multifunkcionalnosti, organizaciji, marketingu, potrošačkoj usmerenosti stanovništva. Ujedno, predstavljaju sklop otvorenih i zatvorenih površina i objekata, funkcionalno i upravljački povezanih, kako bi što racionalnije i tržišno isplativije zadovoljili ne samo interese korisnika (publike, izvođača), već i interese vlasnika (akcionara, države, pojedinaca ili organizacija). Sami objekti su sistemom građevinsko- arhitektonskih standarda, lokalne tradicije i tržišnih potreba stanovništva, ali i pravnih propisa, ograničili improvizacije i nedostatke u izgradnji i korišćenju njihovih prostora. Kombank arena je, za sada, proizvod dostignutog tehnološkog razvoja, društva, standarda i potreba njenih korisnika. Grad Beograd kao osnivač usmerio je objekat površine od 48.000 m², sa šest etaža, maksimalne visine od 36 metara, raspona 132x102 metra i cene koštanja od oko 70 miliona evra ka sportskim i kulturnim manifestacijama (sportske takmičarske priredbe i koncerti iz svih muzičkih pravaca, kao i mnogobrojne kulturne manifestacije i politički skupovi), zanemarivši pritom trgovačke i ugostiteljske sadržaje. Na osnovu svega navedenog će se utvrditi u radu da su programi u Areni dosta slični programima Medison Skver Gardena i Junajted Centra, koji će se u radu koristiti za upoređivanje
