Development of tourism industry was discussed at a meeting of the Presidium of the Council of Ministers

The potential of the Belarusian tourism industry should be realised to its full potential. This was stated by Prime Minister of Belarus Roman Golovchenko during a meeting of the Presidium of the Council of Ministers. Belarus is open for guests. The country's tourism industry has recovered from the restrictions caused by the pandemic. The year of 2024 will be a record year in terms of exports of tourist services: $270 mln. But still, there is room for growth. To give a new impetus to the Belarusian hospitality, the Prime Minister pointed to the need to develop the relevant infrastructure, hotel business and related services. It should be noted that guests from Russia come here most often. The demand for travelling by Belarusians in their native country is also growing every year. Since 2019, their number has increased by 60%.
