Mass tourism in the West and lost opportunities in East Mazandaran.
Mahdia and Kilanjad - IRNA reporter
🔹 Imagine Behshahr, which is located near the Miankala Biosphere Reserve, the world heritage of Abbasabad Bagh and the precious forests of the Zarjarib; Attractions that can be the basis for defining different tourism packages. But this region's share of the travel and tourism investment stream in Mazandaran is far from its capabilities. In a province with such diversity, tourists flock mainly to the west; A situation that resulted in the formation of mass tourism and increased pressure on the infrastructure, while the east of the province has not yet been able to complete its tourism value chain due to the lack of accommodation infrastructure.
According to IRNA, the focus of Mazandaran tourism in recent decades has been mainly in the western regions of the province; The focus, which is caused more by the weakness of tourism capabilities in eastern Mazandaran, lies in the historical background of the formation of tourism in this province.
