    YEREVAN IS AMONG TOP FIVE CIS CAPITALS VISITED BY RUSSIANS IN 2015

    YEREVAN, April 7. / ARKA /. A Russian online hotel booking service
    Oktogo.ru has announced the most popular tourist destinations of
    Russian citizens in 2015 across the former Soviet Union. The ranking
    of countries is topped by Belarus, which is followed by Ukraine,
    Kazakhstan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Moldova, Kyrgyzstan
    and Tajikistan.

    The top 10 most popular cities in the CIS for Russian tourists
    this year are Minsk, Kiev, Baku, Almaty, Yerevan, Astana, Vitebsk,
    Tashkent, Brest and Lviv. Georgia's capital Tbilisi would be the
    seventh in the list if that country were a member of CIS.

    Russian tourists stay on average three days in the Armenian capital
    spending about $60 per day on hotel accommodation.

    The most expensive city in the CIS for Russians is the capital
    of Kazakhstan - Astana, and the cheapest is Vitebsk- the cultural
    capital of Belarus. In Astana, Russians spend an average of $138 a
    day on hotel accommodation, while the cost in Vitebsk is $61. The
    rating was compiled based on booking of hotels by Russians in the
    CIS countries this year.

    According to Oktogo.ru, in 2015 Russians stay for three and a half
    days on average in CIS countries spending 4,500 rubles on hotel
    accommodation per day. The number of tourist trips by Russians to CIS
    countries, booked via the Internet has grown this year by 150 percent.

    The statistics shows that Belarus accounts for 40% of Russians'
    trips to CIS countries. Ukraine accounts for 17%, Kazakhstan for 14%,
    Azerbaijan for 10%, Armenia for 8%, Uzbekistan for 5%, Moldova for 3%
    and Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan for 2% and 1% respectively.
