Abstract

Opportunities for tourism development in the Republic of North Macedonia (RNM) are numerous. The tourist locations attract more and
more interest among the foreign tourists, but it is still not enough to say that they have a significant role in the overall economy of the country.
This paper aims to analyse the tourist intensity based on realized arrivals and overnight stays of domestic and foreign tourists in the
Polog planning region in the period 2011-2019 and to compare them with the tourist intensity at the state level. The tourist intensity in the
RNM expressed through realized arrivals and overnight stays is on the rise. The share of domestic tourists in the total tourist intensity is still
higher, but the number of foreign tourists is continuously growing as well.
The concept of tourism development that has been practiced in recent decades for many years is in crisis whose result is the loss of the international
tourism market. Part of the tourist intensity of the RNM is accounted to the Polog planning region. The realized tourist intensity
based on realized arrivals and overnight stays in the period 2011-2019 as well as the perspectives for future development are presented.
