| description | Together with intersection of tourism with literature, a scientific branch an art branch literary tourism takes place. Literary tourism covers the travels made to the places, in which authors were born, they lived, studied, wrote their works; spaces, in which scenes take place, places that are related to the characters in their works or destinations famous due to literal figures. Those making this kind of travels are called literary tourists. This article deals with the literal spaces and areas, where the scenes in the novels of Herta Müller, 2009 Nobel Literature Prize winner, Romania origin German citizen, take place. Herta Müller was born in Nitzkydorf village, Banat Region of where Germans densely live, in 1953. His birth day and birth of place are two important elements forming his life and art. While his grandfather was a rich merchant and farmer, due to the fact that communist regime nationalizes everything and that his father is alcoholic, his family and he himself lived in poverty. His childhood and youth years passed in a village of 400 homes, where everybody knows each other and German language Sualya dialect is spoken. In this village, the farmers, many craftsmen, and workers working in the factories in the city were living. Müller does not well remembers his childhood years at all and describes them as sad young years. The author mostly tells the period of communist regime in Romania in the leadership of Nicolai Ceausescu and the end of that period i.e. riot in December 1989. Through literal works, a city or country can become a tourism center. Authors and poets, who are destination creators, bringing distinction and identity in a city or country, can make it a brand city of world tourism market. In the article, the novels of Herta Müller in the relationship of tourism literature will be scrutinized. The article consists of four sections. The first section will give information about the relationship of tourism-literature; the second section, about Nobel Literature Prize and Herta Müller; the third section, about Romania Tourism; and the fourth section, about literal spaces in the novels of Herta Müller. The result coming to forefront in the study is that following that Herta Müller wins, Romania has begun to become an important literal tourism center |
