(ANSA) - BELGRADE, SEPTEMBER 22 - Bulgaria will launch next year a marketing campaign to attract more tourists from China, said Bulgarian Tourism Minister Nikolina Angelkova.

Moreover, Bulgaria's official tourism portal will be available in Chinese in 2019, Angelkova added during a working meeting with Chinese businessmen and investors, the news agency Novinite reported today. Around 15,000 Chinese tourists visited Bulgaria between January and July 2018, Angelkova noted, but the potential to attract more tourist is higher, also by involving other countries in the region in a common touristic package, which will promote touristic opportunities in the whole Balkans. In the first months of the year, Bulgaria earned around two billion euros from international tourism, recent data from the Bulgarian Central Bank showed, local media reported. (ANSA).
