Seven Armenian companies, together with the Development Foundation of Armenia (DFA), represent Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh), as appealing tourist destinations, at the IFTM Top Resa 2016 annual international tourism industry show that is held in Paris,
This year, it is held from Tuesday to Friday.
The IFTM Top Resa is one of the world’s major events in the tourism sector, the DFA press service informed Armenian News-NEWS.am.
This year, 32 thousand businessmen and professionals from 158 countries are taking part in this major tourism industry show.
“Europe is a target market for Armenia, and the European air carriers’ direct flights to [capital city] Yerevan make the Armenian direction competitive and more appealing,” noted DFA Executive Director Garen Mikirditsian. “In addition, European tourists appreciate ecologically-clean food, [and] the presence of historical architectural monuments, with which the two Armenian countries are so rich.
“I believe all this will contribute to the Armenian tourism product’s promotion in the French market.”
