What are the most popular places for tourism in Azerbaijan? SIA conducted a study on the subject and asked the views of the experts.
Ahmad Gurbanov, head of the Azerbaijan Tourism Association: "As we know, the development of tourism in our country is always on the rise. We are already experiencing the summer season. Summer is also the time when people go on vacation the most.
Despite the pandemic in our country, we are witnessing the arrival of tourists from different countries in 2022. Tourists visit both the capital and the regions. But mostly they come to the capital and then go to the regions.
In general, during our observations, we see that tourists prefer areas close to the capital. Because they do not want to waste a lot of time on the road and want to witness the beauty of those areas.
Currently, tourists mostly go to Shamakhi, Ismayilli and Gabala. It is closer to the capital and has a high tourism potential. That is, in the bosom of nature there are convenient conditions for recreation.
In addition, the Guba-Gusar zone is the most attractive for tourists. However, the Guba road is currently being repaired. Tourism companies do not consider it expedient to send tourists there. We hope that the flow of tourists will accelerate again after the repairs are completed in the near future.
In addition, although far from the capital, Zagatala, Balakan and Gakh zones also attract tourists. But the tourists who come here are not for short-term tours, but for longer stays.
In general, Azerbaijan's domestic tourism potential is very wide, and our current observations show that the level of occupancy in hotels in the regions on weekends is at a maximum. The level of fullness during the week has reached 70-80 percent."
Tourism expert Jeyhun Ashurov: "Tourists mainly go to places in Azerbaijan where it is easier to travel, where the tourism infrastructure is fully built - where there are plenty of hotels, restaurants and entertainment venues.
These trips are mainly to Gabala. Although construction work is underway on the Guba road, it is still a preferred destination. Recently, the number of entrances to the Lankaran road has increased due to its regulation. Ismayilli and Sheki are also among the most favored zones.
In general, tourists travel to places with an average arrival distance of up to 3 hours the most."
MP Azer Badamov: "The tourism sector of our country has begun to revive after the pandemic. There are beautiful tourist centers in our regions.
Summer has come and people are traveling to different regions of the country to spend their holidays. Today, the most popular tourist destinations are the northern, northwestern and southern regions. The beauty of nature in these areas gives people better opportunities to relax. Also, our liberated territories are the most popular destination for tourists. However, due to limited access to these areas, our citizens have the opportunity to make short trips to Shusha only by registering online. In the future, I think that after full security in these areas, Shusha and Kalbajar will be among the most visited by tourists."
