[01] Gov't on tourism arrivals, revenues
(ANA-MPA) -- Culture & Tourism Minister Pavlos Geroulanos, who visited
the eponymous archaeological site of Cape Sounion on Sunday morning
for a briefing on restoration works, emphasised that both Sounion and
the Acropolis are destinations that must be promoted even more.
Referring to recent figures from the Bank of Greece's report on the
tourism sector, he said they show an increase of 13 percent in arrivals
and a considerable increase in revenues.
The upgrading of the archaeological site of Sounion, which hosts the
classical-era Temple of Poseidon, has been earmarked for upgrading
via Community and national funding to the tune of 1.65 million
euros. (ANA-MPA)
