Events like the Green Days festival help Bulgaria assert itself as a sustainable tourism destination by promoting all types of alternative tourism, which one can practice in our country. Thus said the Minister of Tourism, Nikolina Angelkova, during today’s opening of Green Days.

Minister Angelkova stressed that biodiversity, extreme sports, climbing, adventure tourism, etc., contribute added value to the Bulgarian tourism product. According to her, over 5 mil. international tourists have visited our country from April to August this year. Stats indicate that tourists increasingly combine their seaside vacation with visits to cultural-historic monuments, tourist attractions, national parks, etc., she added. She commented further that our country is capable of offering virtually everything to tourists and that it is thus import to present its diversity via such forums.

The opening was also attended by the Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Foods, Georgi Kostov, the Deputy Mayor of Sofia Municipality, Todor Chobanov, etc.

This year the Ministry of Tourism participates in the Green Days exposition with two stalls. Also presented are the EDEN destinations in Bulgaria. The festival will take place starting today and until October 2, 2016 in the park in the front of the Ivan Vazov National Theatre.
