Foreign tourism flows to Ukraine should double to 30 million visitors

Foreign tourism flows to Ukraine should double to 30 million visitors, President Poroshenko said, hailing the job creation power of tourism. “Not only to major cities – I don’t want any part of Ukraine be in the periphery,” he said perhaps thinking of his next stop of the day: Ukraine’s Danube river port of Izmail, 580 km by plane from Kyiv. Located in Ukraine’s southwesternmost corner, Izmail is a jumping off point for tourism into the UNESCO-listed Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve, home to 1 million birds in the summer.
