A unique illustrated guide to the Kamchatka Territory was published

The book “Kamchatka. A Modern Guide ”arrives in the country's bookstores.

The history of the development of Kamchatka has not been one hundred years, but for a very long time, until the end of the 20th century, this region remained one of the most closed to visit. To Kamchatka it is still extremely difficult to get there: both long and expensive. However, it was enough to remove the formal restriction on entry, so that Kamchatka from the forbidden fruit turned into one of the most attractive destinations of Russian tourism.

"I think this guide will help you learn more about the peninsula, plunge into the mysterious world of Kamchatka nature, enjoy its beauties, - says in the welcoming speech of the governor of Kamchatka Krai Vladimir Ilyukhin. - For a long time the peninsula was closed to tourists. Severe snowy peaks, alpine lakes, turbulent rivers infested with fish, hot springs - all these beauties were once available only to Kamchatka people, and the rest of our country admired them through the prism of television screens. Today everything has changed. ”

Responding to the growing interest of tourists in this region, local authorities are trying to develop infrastructure: they build hotels and sanatoria, reconstruct roads, establish transport links with other regions of Russia, build ski complexes, and open ethno-cultural centers.

"I very much hope that this book will become an assistant for those who are going to visit the peninsula, who want to know more about the tourism potential of the region. This is indeed the first such publication about Kamchatka, - Said at the presentation of the book the first vice-governor of the Kamchatka Territory Dmitry Latyshev. - In recent years I represented the interests of the region in Moscow and I know what interest our region is attracting. But sometimes people do not have the necessary information. " The first copies of the book D. Latyshev handed tourists from Primorye, as well as representatives of travel companies of the region.

In the book "Kamchatka. A modern guidebook, this Far Eastern region appears before us as a modern, dynamically developing region, ready to receive guests, along the path of a complete renovation of the infrastructure.

"The uniqueness of the recreational zone, the exciting ecological and extreme routes, the color of local national settlements and, of course, the special, original atmosphere inherent only in those corners of the earth where not the people are in charge, but the proud nature - that's what attracts Romantics in Kamchatka who do not pass Before the difficulties. Our book is a guide to the majestic and inaccessible Kamchatka region, and we hope that it will help tireless wanderers make their own discoveries, "the book's editor Julia Petropavlovskaya told.
