Did you think you'd see the day?
Over 5,000 foreign tourists from about 60 countries visited Nagorno-Karabakh in 2006. The majority, 1,120 people, were from the United States of America. They were followed by Russians ( 800), French (464), Canada (267), Iran (250), Germany (210).Seeing how Yerevan is lacking some tourist resources, one has to wonder how much Karabakh has to yet to improve!
Visitors were also from such states as Malta, Venezuela, Taiwan and other countries. Yuri Zakarian, head of consular division of the foreign ministry, said the number of foreign visitors last year grew 30 percent against the previous year of 2005.
