Toursits Increased In Armenia, Family Vacation Affordable
07 February 2008 | 510 thousand tourists visited Armenia last year,
which is with 33% higher compared to 2006. The country's long
history, mountains and rich Christian culture attract more and more
visitors each year.
According to Mekhak Apresyan, the head of tourism department at the
national Ministry of Trade and Economic development, previously there
was a shortage of hotels in the country. Today there are
approximately 70 accomodation places, nearly half of which are in
Yerevan.
According to Apresyan, Armenia is well presented in the international
tourism and travel market, which has its positive impact on its
development.
Apresyan noted that the conditions for ecotourism in Armenia are more
than sufficient, but much remains to be done, until the country
becomes a developed tourist destination.
