Youth tourism in Armenia is gradually gaining turnovers

ArmInfo. Over the past 10 years, the share of youth in the overall structure of the tourist flow in Armenia has increased from 6% to 35%, according to the results of 2017, the head of the State Committee for Tourism Zarmine Zeituntsyan said at a press conference on March 17.

Meanwhile, according to her, what Armenia offers today as a tourist product is of greater interest to people of the age group above 50 years. "From Europe to Armenia comes mainly the intelligentsia, which is primarily interested in culture, a serious historical past of the country, "noted the head of the State Committee. However, Zeytunyatsyan noted that today Armenia is not so significant, but it starts to provoke interest among young people, especially in such areas as wine and gastronomic tourism. "The statistics are improving and this makes us happy," she stressed.
