According to the data of the NKR MFA Consular Service, in 2011, the
number of foreign citizens visiting the Nagorno Karabakh Republic in
2011 amounted to 11.362 showing an increase of more than 3000 tourists
as compared with the previous year.
The geography of the tourists is quite broad and it continues expanding
every year. In 2011, citizens of the Russian Federation, the USA,
France, Iran, Canada, Germany and the Ukraine, Malaysia, Bangladesh,
Cambodia, Gabon, Kenya, Côte d'Ivoire, SAR, Cuba, Singapore, Hong Kong,
Indonesia and other countries visited the NKR.
The fact that the country is more often included in the ratings of
the most attractive tourist countries of the world testifies to the
increasing interest of the foreigners to Nagorno Karabakh.
Arriving in Artsakh, the guests mostly visit the monastery complexes of
Gandzasar (XIII century), Amaras (IV century), Dadivank (IV century),
the excavations' zone of the ancient town of Tigranakert (I century
BC), the ancient Azokh cave, a great number of antique Armenian
fortresses etc.
Tourists visiting Artsakh are not only motivated by the historical
monuments, virgin nature, and sound ecology but also by friendliness,
good will and hospitality of the Artsakh people and original Karabakhi
kitchen.
