Today, the Belarusian health resorts are working at maximum capacity. This was announced by the director of the Republican Center for Health Improvement and Health-Resort Treatment. More than 25 thousand people have recreation there every day. About 5.5 thousand of them are foreigners. Moreover, 95% of the total number is Russians, in second place are residents of the Baltic countries. In general, visitors from 40 countries have recreation in our health resorts in summer. Now, for example, we have citizens of the United States, the Netherlands, China and Australia. As for the price, a health resort voucher costs two times cheaper than to the health resorts in Turkey or Egypt.
Gennady Bolbatovsky, Director of the Republican Center for Health Improvement and Health-Resort Treatment of the Population:
Despite the rhetoric of our Baltic neighbors and due to the fact that the Republic of Belarus today liberalized the visa-free regime for these citizens, about 100 citizens of the Baltic republics visit our sanatoriums every day. Now we are also seeing an increase in the flow of tourists from Poland due to the recent introduction of this regime. Therefore, there is a delayed demand, and I hope that our Western neighbors will be happy to come to Belarusian resorts to improve their health.
For the first 6 months of this year, more than 72 thousand foreigners improved their health in Belarusian health resorts. Export proceeds amounted to about 82 million rubles. This is 60% more than in the same period last year. Almost all health resort vouchers are already booked for September.
