Armenia Among Fast-Growing Tourist Destinations in the UN List
SpaceWatch Middle East
Every year, the United Nations World Tourism Organization tracks travel trends to predict the newest up-and-coming destinations.
The organization tracks international visitors and presents information about which countries are spiking interest.
Armenia is included in the list of the 20 countries as a fast-growing travel destination.
The part about Armenia reads:
"Throughout its long history (over 3,000 years), Armenia has been plagued with conflict. However now, in more stable times, the country had an 18 percent growth in tourism over the past year. Because it was the world’s first Christian country, many of the most popular tourist attractions are monasteries that date back thousands of year."
