Spa tourism must be developed and promoted purposefully. It is essential for turning Bulgaria into a year-round destination for tourism.

This is what Bulgaria’s Deputy Premier and Minister of Tourism Mariana Nikolova said at a working meeting with representatives of the tourism sector in the town of Sapareva Banya, Southwestern Bulgaria. Sapareva Banya is a good example, Minister Nikolova said. There are more than 120 guest houses, a dozen outdoor and indoor pools, five spa hotels which are working at full capacity despite the anti-epidemic measures, the correspondent of the Bulgarian National Radio Kiril Falin informs. Next week, a campaign aimed at promoting little known places in Bulgaria starts in the social networks.
