Bulgaria Ranked by Romanians as Top Tourist Destination

Bulgaria is among the top tourist destinations for Romanian holiday-makers, although the economic crisis is having a negative influence on their vacation plans for this year. A survey conducted at the beginning of June has revealed that due to the crisis many Romanians will favour tourist attractions in their own country.
