Overnight stays in Bulgarian winter resorts have increased by 3-5 percent compared to the levels of 2019. In an interview with BTA caretaker Minister of Tourism Ilin Dimitrov said the warm weather has not ruined the winter season, although some reservations were changed for March.

According to Dimitrov, the indicators are very good and the resorts are full thanks to the advertising done in countries such as Israel, Poland, Turkey and Greece, which has contributed to the growth in the number of tourists.
