"People from the Bulgarian town of Sozopol contribute greatly along with the local administration
to generate the innovations, retaining the spirit of antiquity and beauty of this unique destination. Restoration of antiquities and attractions in the town contribute to the preservation of the authentic brand of the town", said the chairman of the Council for World Tourism and Travel David Skousil during the official ceremony of the annual awards, which took place last night in the Spanish capital Madrid.
What about the residents and the municipal administration during the official award ceremony of the best tourist destination in the world, is not a compliment, but realistic assessment of what is happening in recent years in the town. In February, a month when in Sozopol arrived representative of the World Council for Tourism and Travel Richard Damon to assess the place of performance of the town he remained extremely impressed with not only the town, but also of people.
"I am very impressed by your commitment to Sozopol. I've been to many such meetings, but so engaged and responsible people I have not met, said Richard Damon at the end of his meeting with representatives of the municipal administration, tourism, NGOs and residents of the town.
Second place in the "Destination of 2015" is a worthy prize for the town, who managed only from Bulgarian destinations, not only, it be included in the most prestigious tourist rating, but to be in the top three, as only gave Ljubljana.
