Russian tourists need richer program in Armenia
15:12 - 13.07.13
Russian tourists' interest in Armenia can hardly be satisfied with
visits to churches and monasteries alone, Lilit Hovhannisyan, Director
of Armenia for Tourists monthly, told journalists on Saturday.
She pointed out the need for more recreation areas and festivals.
`Russian tourists prefer Garni, Geghard, Sevan and Echmiadzin,' she
said.
`Russian market is the target of our magazine because Russian tourists
lack information on Armenia,' she said.
`The monthly has been published since this April and received an
enthusiastic response. However, it would not be realistic to expect a
sharp rise in the number of tourists within a couple of months. We
hope that the magazine will stimulate interest,' she said.
The major problem of Armenia's tourist industry is high hotel prices
and tourists' insolvency, Hovhannisyan said.
