Holidays in the Far East and the Arctic: conditions for tourists by the hands of investors

The development of the tourism industry in the regions of the Far East and the Arctic is a strategic direction of state policy and one of the topics discussed in the industry community. Today, the prospects for domestic tourism in the territories of the largest federal district in our country and the Russian Arctic are of particular importance and require an integrated approach to solving the problems. Thanks to the conditions created for residents of priority development areas, the free port of Vladivostok and the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation, the tourism industry is one of the leaders in terms of the number of new investment projects.

Today, in the territories of seven subjects of the Far East (Kamchatsky and Primorsky Territories, Sakhalin Region, the Republics of Buryatia and Sakha (Yakutia), Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, Khabarovsk Territory) and six subjects of the Arctic Zone (Murmansk and Arkhangelsk Regions, Krasnoyarsk Territory, Nenets and Yamalo-Nenets autonomous okrugs, the Republic of Karelia), new hotel complexes, recreation centers and glamping sites are being created, tourist routes are being built and ski resorts are expanding.

Every tenth entrepreneur conducting investment activities under the Far Eastern and Arctic preferential regimes creates new points of attraction for Russian and foreign travelers. More than 15 billion rubles have already been invested in their implementation, 1,600 people are already working in the hospitality industry in the Far East and the Russian Arctic. And the total cost of tourism projects exceeds 122 billion rubles and is designed to create over 10,000 jobs.
