-
The tourism sector in the region of
Antalya had small beginnings in the
1960s.
-
The development of tourism soon gained
momentum however due to the wide variety
of touristic attractions which the
region had to offer.
-
Tourism in the area was confined mainly
to the domestic market., but it was in
the mid 1980s that the fledgling
international tourism sector started to
take off.
-
Domestic tourism has also become a major
player in the tourism game with locals
concentrating on their ‘holiday homes’
and spending their vacations in ‘state
holiday camps’.
-
An important feature of regional tourism
is the provision of sufficient hotels
which are purpose-built and of high
enough standard to keep ahead of foreign
competition
-
Antalya has huge touristic potential
with its warm climate, diverse
historical and cultural background and
great natural beauty.
