The project consists of different environment educational objects, where people can learn about nature and local culture, watch the animals and beautiful landscapes. It helps to relax and forget about urban noise. The project will support economic development of the region, at the same time respecting the unique local nature.
In the last few years, in global nature tourism we can observe new trend - sustainable tourism. It connects together three aspects: environmental, social and economic. It protect natural values, but at the same time it doesn’t restrict tourist traffic and therefore economic development. In Poland, there are many amazing towns, with landscapes unique in the world, which offer huge potential for sustainable tourism. Unfortunately, tourist infrastructure on the valuable natural areas is insufficient and focused only on large tourist resorts, which are already filled with crowds of visitors. Accumulation of tourism in one place is a threat to nature. I believe that we should pay attention to considered as "non-touristy" towns, with an equally amazing natural beauty and interesting cultural values and thanks to this dispel the tourist traffic. My project could be good example of solving this problem. Complex of Environmental Education Objects located in small, beautiful city Narewka can bring many social, economic and natural benefits. CUBES OF NATURE are objects which will promote a local nature, culture and history and at the same time themselves become attractive enough to interest polish and foreign tourists.
