Nagorno-Karabakh is becoming more popular among foreign tourists, representative of NKR government said in an interview with Artsakhpress.

“According to statistics, during the period from 2007 to 2013 the number of foreign visitors to Artsakh has grown by an average of 40 percent. These statistical data refer only to the foreign citizens, that visited Artsakh. Data exclude the number of visitors to Armenia,” said Artak Grigoryan, head of tourism department at NKR Government.

Before independence there were four hotels in the country, after the declaration of independence high-class hotels with high level of customer service have been built. Currently, 42 hotel facilities and more than 25 equipped resorts are functioning in the country, the infrastructure has been improving.

During the last 10 years NKR has attended major international tourism exhibitions (Berlin, London, Moscow, Paris, Milan, Rimini, Madrid).

Referring to the recent comments of the Azerbaijani officials that there is allegedly a security problem for tourists in Artsakh, Grigoryan noted that since Karabakh has been a part of the international tourism, the safety of all the tourists visiting the country is guaranteed, and no tourist faces a threat or any kind of danger in Artsakh, and Azerbaijani official’s statements are complete misinformation.
