the national laws 979/1982 and 394/1991 for combining tourism development with the protection and preservation of
the natural beauty of the environment.
They are two areas on which there are precise constraints imposed by the Ministry of the Environment and Protection of the
Territory, because they give hospitality to natural goods and habitats of high conservation value that and require specifi c
measures of protection.
