Expo 2016 Antalya, and tourism in Turkey...

Visit the Expo 2016 Antalya next is of course something very good, but why not go and take the opportunity to enjoy the charms and strengths of the beautiful Turkey?
I'm therefore interested very closely to the possibilities of visits and stays, which could complete the tour of the Expo.

Yesterday evening was held at the Department of Culture and Information of the Turkish Embassy in Paris, a Press Conference / Cocktail to present the projects of the Turkish Tourist Office in France and novelties in Turkey.

 

Obviously, even if there has been a notable decline of French tourists in Turkey, it's a fact that it's always a destination really appreciated, in view of the many attractive points, whether at the landscape level and the sun, as the culture, always highly sought theme for french tourists!

And Expo 2016 Antalya ? Alas, even if the subject was mentioned, it was a little too fast "for my taste," but there were so many topics to see, and upcoming events.

Nevertheless, it will be very goof to provide handsets including holiday and / or tour with a visit to the Expo, would be able to give a higher visibility to this International Horticultural Exposition 2016 in Antalya, and promote a little more tourism in the region with this new goal of visits!
Only 220 days left until Expo 2016 Antalya, it would be good to increase a little more the communication, so that this exhibition will be a success.

I also noticed that many of those invited to the evening, even very closely involved with tourism in Turkey, had never heard of the Expo project in 2016!

Otherwise, the evening went very well, friendly with very interesting presentations by Ms. Serra Aytun Roncaglia, director of the Department of Culture and Information of the Embassy of Turkey (below).

Note that Turkish Airlines was well represented at the event, especially with the presence of Mr. Rafet SISMAN (Director Turkish Airlines France) and a draw has allowed one lucky guest to come away with two return tickets Istanbul.

And for those who pose the question, it's not me ... what a pity!

Alongside information on Expo 2016 Antalya that I will continue to diffuse in the weeks and months to come, I will have the opportunity to talk again about tourism in Turkey, to prepare our holidays next year, Turkey !
