The greatest part of the resort town of Dilijan and local tourist
facilities are actively restored, Dilijan Vice Mayor Armen Makaryan
said at a press conference, Monday.
He said modern Hotel Mountainous Armenia will open soon. Large-scale
investments are made, especially by world known companies Tufenkian
($200 million) and Slav Group ($2 million). The construction is to be
completed within the coming 3 yeas. However, lack of labor force may
suspend the work, Makaryan said. At the same time, he hopes that after
the construction, Dilijan will become the tourist center of Armenia.
Some 2,000-2,500 tourists visit Dilijan every year. The number
of tourists is expected to rise to 12,000 people yearly after the
reconstruction of the resort.
