09 January 2009
Turkey has been tipped as a top holiday destination in 2009 by a travel association.
According to Frances Tuke of the Association of British Travel Agents (ABTA), the country is set to be one of the "big growth areas" in global tourism in 2009.
She explained that Turkey is planning to target the high end of the tourism marketing by investing in new hotels.
Traditionally, the country has been seen as an inexpensive option for holidays, but Ms Tuke said it was now planning to attract wealthy holidaymakers as well as families.
She commented: "Turkey has put a lot of new investment into hotels and five stars. What has been quite a good value destination has broadened its value to the high-end market as well."
