«During this recovery, after a really difficult year due to the Covid emergency, the world heritage sites of Unesco represent a driving force to attract sustainable and qualified tourism – said Angelo Tortorelli, president of the Mirabilia Association -. We undoubtedly have the advantage of being able to keep thinking as a network, and the ability to cooperate orizontally at any level, but still having the advantages of a strong governance, thanks to the coordination of the Chambers of Commerce, authorities that are capable of generating income not only touristically speaking but also economically. We can achieve all of this knowing that we represent 13 million people and a fifth of all Italian tourism (pre-Covid data) for an estimate income of 296 million €, the same as Portugal and Finland. We restart being aware of these numbers, and we want to stimulate foreign tourists coming to visit our Country to discover another beautiful Italy, but we also refer to Italian tourists, since proximity will be an important factor in the next future.»
