YEREVAN. – Armenia will help Artsakh [Nagorno-Karabakh] to develop the field of tourism. This was stated during a press conference held on Thursday devoted to the inaugural Armenian-Russian joint scientific and touristic expedition.      . 

In response to the question whether the entire territory of Artsakh will be covered, head of the Armenian Institute for Tourism Robert Minasyan said that in order to develop tourism, a cadastre of tourist resources of the certain territory is required.

“Lots of people, foreigners visit Artsakh. However, we do lack elaborated and confirmed tourist routes. We need to make and present it and later start selling tours via tourist companies and advertise tours to Artsakh. The more people arrive in Arstakh, the more jobs and money will flow,” Minasyan said.
