ISSUE OF ACTIVATING TOURISTS’ FLOW TO ARTSAKH WAS DISCUSSED IN GOVERNMENT

NKR Government Information and
Public Relations Department
July 08, 2009

RA Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan met with the representatives of
over twenty travel agencies to discuss tourism-related issues.

The Government Information and Public Relations Department informs
that the speakers highlighted the need for having a unified state
policy in the field of tourism, extending the scope of the home
tourism, improving corresponding infrastructures, offering social
guarantees, providing for a more effective tax administration and
settling tourism culture.

Meeting participants were proposed to submit to discussions the
"Low-Budget Holiday and Trips in Artsakh" package, meant to activate
the flow of tourists to the NKR, which, in certain senses, will
promote prospective tourism in the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic.

As a result of discussions it has been suggested to organize a 3-day
courtesy trip to the NKR in order to get a closer view of the existing
opportunities and see how tourism can be best developed in Artsakh.
