We have been working on easing restrictions and rules for entering Bulgaria, which would boost interest in this country as a tourist destination. This is what Minister of Tourism Stella Baltova said in an interview with BNR.

Speaking about the possible easing of the visa regime for Russian tourists, she said that this was a "strategic move" and efforts would be made for it to happen. A digital campaign is also underway to present Bulgaria as a safe destination on several priority markets, including Germany and Russia. Baltova said some hotels plan to cover the PCR tests expenses for their guests upon departure.
