Ministry of Tourism 2013 plan for further tourism attraction

Despite the current crisis, the Ministry of Tourism seeks to make Syria a distinct tourist destination on the international tourist map.

In its 2013 plan, the Ministry is to reactivate cooperation programs with the Syrian airlines especially during festivals through sponsoring tourism events and organizing visits to sites of special religious and archeological significance.

Director of the Ministry’s marketing department Kawthar Mleisan said the ministry will print brochures about Damascus’s various gates and booklets on special Syrian products, Islamic civilization and the Syrian Cuisine.

In line with the “Go East ward” policy pursued by the Government, the ministry will take part in New Delhi, Moscow, and Beijing tourist exhibitions. More efforts are being exerted to organize certain tourism events in Latin American countries, especially Brazil and Venezuela where large Syrian communities live.
