Bodrum the Region of Tourism<br />
12 months of tourism<br />
aim in Bodrum<br />
In the summer months, millions of tourists come from Turkey and<br />
abroad to Bodrum which is known as a tourism paradise with its<br />
magnificent nature and unique bays and beaches. It is aimed to<br />
spread the tourism mobility to 12 months with the national and<br />
international sports events organized in winter in the district.<br />
Bodrum Hoteliers Association General Secretary Orhan Kavala<br />
said in his statement on the subject that many tourists from<br />
England, Netherlands, Russia, Belgium, France, and Germany came<br />
to the district last year. Kavala stated that they will attend various<br />
fairs in abroad in the year 2019; ''We participated in fairs in Italy,<br />
France and England. The developments for the newyear seem<br />
pretty good. In the long view, there are fairs in Holland, Berlin and<br />
Moscow. These are very large fairs.''<br />
CHEAP VACATION OPPORTUNITY<br />
Orhan Kavala indicated that Turkey become a popular country for<br />
foreign people and said: "The services we offer are much better<br />
than the rival countries. We have more potential, and we also offer<br />
cheap holiday opportunity. It is extraordinary that this service is<br />
provided in return for small amount of money. One of the factors<br />
that increase these numbers is the prices. The earnings of the rival<br />
countries for their services is more than ours.<br />
NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL<br />
ACTIVITIES IN WINTER MONTHS<br />
During the winter months, sailing races are also held in our<br />
district. Some of these races are national, some of them are<br />
international. This brings intense dynamism to Bodrum. There<br />
can be thousands of people participating in these competitions.<br />
Sporters participating in sailing races reach a serious number.<br />
This is a serious contribution to the Bodrum hotel sector. The areas<br />
in which competitions will be held are rich in Bodrum and they<br />
have a lot of options. As the numbers increase in an international<br />
area, Bodrum will begin to advertise its popularity all over Europe<br />
and the world."<br />
