About Project |
Tourism is an important economic factor contributing to growth and employment worldwide. When we learned that according to the World Tourism Organization, cultural tourism meets 37% of the total tourism demand, we wondered about the situation in our country, which has hosted many civilizations. We learned that 63% of the tourists who come to our country, prefer especially Antalya and Istanbul. We have determined that cultural values such as historical and archaeological artifacts, special days, food culture, handicrafts, local folk songs, agriculture, vegetation, animal husbandry and folklore constitute a great potential for cultural tourism in our district and our region. At the point of introducing our culture and values, we aim to create an e-guide from the eyes of our children and contribute to the country's tourism for those who want to travel and get to know our city and region by bringing together the hidden beauties of our city and our region from the eyes of our children, our local culture, our historical and natural beauties.
