Turkish tourism officials predict further growth
Authorities in Turkey have revealed plans to attract a greater number of visitors this year, according to a media report.
TurkishPress.com quoted Ahmet Barut of the Turkish Hotels Federation as saying that he expected a record number of people to visit Turkey in 2008.
He told the news provider that this could prove to be highly lucrative for the Turkish economy, which stands to gain about £10 billion in revenues from the tourism sector.
This could significantly enhance the appeal of the country among overseas property buyers, particularly those who are thinking of entering the buy-to-let sector.
In addition, the strong economic performance of Turkey suggests that it could offer a much safer and more secure investment climate than other emerging markets.
Mr Barut commented: "Turkey will experience a record in the number of tourists arriving in the country."
He added that almost half of incoming holidaymakers would hail from members of the European Union.
Turkey is currently in the midst of preparing its bid to join the international organisation.
The country's accession has been backed by a number of members, including the UK.
