Bulgaria is looking forward to the new summer season with more and cleaner beaches. The expectations are to reach at least 4.6 million tourist visits in the summer of 2023. This will be at least 5% above the result of the season in 2019 before the coronavirus pandemic, Deputy Minister of Tourism Irena Georgieva said at the "BG Tourism - Summer 2023" forum, which takes place in Burgas.

Georgieva announced that employers in the sector who wish to hire foreigners can use a new online platform created by the ministries of labor and e-government.

We will pay more attention to the topics related to tourism in the programs of the BNR, head of the Bulgarian National Radio, Milen Mitev, told the forum. "Wait for our stories about the beautiful places and the people who live in them," Mitev added.
