-448 thousand of foreigners have visited Primorsky region within 9 months of 2016 year. This is 30% more than the results of the same period of 2015. Most of  our tourists are from China. Also, our region is getting popular among visitors from S. Korea. The largest number of tourists come in the visa-free tour groups. This kind of tourism is popular among Chinese citizens.
The number of visitors from Australia and Germany have also increased. The tourist flow from these countries increased by 150%.
In addition, the Heads of the tourism industry actively develop domestic tourism. And the region is becoming popular among Russians.

Indeed, tourists from the western part of Russia finally noticed Far East. Money exchange rate has increased, many popular resorts, such as Turkey and Egypt, happened to be in dangerous zone, and if we talk about Crimea or Sochi, almost all trip tickets were sold out during the winter.

Yuriy Khabarov, the first deputy director of one of local resorts, said:  Tourists’ flow has increased, people from Trans-Baikal Territory, Chita, Irkutsk started to come here to spend their vacation. We have got a call from Moscow, they have already made a booking. Last year, tourists from Moscow already came here, and it seems that they liked it here”.

Russian tourists are getting more and more demanding, so businesses have to meet with the growing demands.

Recreation zone in Primorsky region began to acquire the features of civilized one. It is possible to rent a room with all amenities - TVset and fridge. Such rooms are of the same level as two- or three-star hotel’s rooms in Turkey or Thailand.

Due to high demand, rent prices also grow. For example, a room during mellow season will cost about 5,000 rubles a day. Houses without facilities, of course, cheaper, their rent would be about 2-3 thousands rubles a day. Actually, if spending your holiday in Andreyevka, you have to spend a lot less money, than on foreign resorts. However, not all people come to Primorsky region solely by economic reasons.

It is ok to go to Thailand when the sea is cold here, but in the summer it is better to spend holidays here - in Russia.
