However, there are no closed zones in tourism, and these resorts are not expected to become a reserve for the wealthy, said Rumen Draganov, Director of the Institute for Analysis and Assessment in Tourism, in an interview with BTA.

Romania, Turkiye and Greece are top of the list in terms of the number of foreign visits this winter. After Bulgaria's entry into Schengen, especially in January, there was a high intensity of travel, mainly due to curiosity, Rumen Draganov pointed out.
