Mašov tourism dus center. Prague 1 proposes to introduce a tax on alcohol
During the 1st and 2nd quarters of 2018, compared to the same period in 2017, 129,000 more people were accommodated in the capital. This represents 38 percent of the registered women of the Czech Republic, said Marcela Pov from the Prask regional agency S.
Apart from tourism, the capital city is also a popular city for congresses, more than two dozen conferences have been held here over the years.
The center pet her
Prask Castle, Charles Bridge and Staromstsk Square are the most complete of the foreign monuments. We are on the brink, the city is petting it, confirms the problem of the mayor of Prague 1, Oldich Lomeck (TOP 09).
One way to tame former tourism is to raise several questions, the first is to stop a large number of hotel capacities and short-term accommodation services, among them Airbnb, which lowers prices.
eenm is such a complex mass tourism outside the historical center of the first district. There is a need to create such a concept that would bring tourism to other parts of the city, said Oldich Lomeck.
The CzechTourism agency and the Ministry of Local Development, which is based on the State Concept of Tourism R, are of the same opinion. Due to the importance of some monuments and the area, we are trying to promote the locality with fewer visits in the long term, said the Minister of Local Development Klra Dostlov (ANO).
The necessity of the so-called expansion of tourism shows the importance of CzechTourism. More than two million people visited Prask Castle last year, thus confirming its position at the top of the list of the fifty most visited monuments in the Republic. Compared to the previous year, the number of visitors to the Castle was less than 12 percent.
In the walls of the Castle and other famous monuments, he stood and occupied the places of the capital. If the nvtvians set out outside the classic historical center, it was only a matter of course. For example, about 300,000 people made their way to the zoo and botanical garden in Troja last year, which represents a seven percent increase in the population.
Among the attractions of Nvtvnice, which are not listed as first-class tourist attractions, tourists were attracted by television in na ikov, the Veletrn palc in Holeovice or the Krlovstv eleznic in Smchov, where from 200 thousand to 340 thousand people visited last year. Even there, the average birth rate was 10 and nine percent.
This show is not for drunks
He linked the problem with mass tourism in the center of Prague, with the various drinking conventions that only spend a day or two in Prague, and then fly home on a cheap flight. Taxing cheap tourists is what Prague 1 does not care about. We don’t want to be an alcohol destination, pointed out Oldich Lomeck.
His words are confirmed by the experience of Praan, who once lived in the neighborhood of such small congresses. If you visit the local bars, be sure to see cartons of the most common types of beer and koalas pouring out of the bars and self-services on the way to the cheap ones.
According to Oldich Lomeckho, an external consumption tax on hard alcohol would help in this case, which would raise its price to the level of a drop from our borders. Limiting cheap tourism would increase the potential for invasive and destructive tourism for the natives. This should have a positive impact on the depopulation of Prague 1 and its transformation into an open-air museum.
It will not be easy to enforce any of the changes. It is not just a matter of the mayor’s or the mayor’s crack, but also of the government. It’s a long way, the situation that prevails today cannot be changed in a single day, Mayor Oldich Lomeck said.
Last night, pay Rusov
Fully half of Prague’s residents, 84 percent, come from abroad, according to S. Tradin concerns Germans, Russians, Americans as well as British and Italians. In the first and second quarters of this year, immigrants from New Zealand and Ukraine recorded the highest interannual growth rates.
According to statistics, tourists spent an average of about two nights in Prague. Praise the Russians here, who spend the last night in the metropolis. On the contrary, they will stay in Prague for the shortest time, less than two nights. the rate of using the room varied in the 1st and 2nd quarters from 48.6 percent in January to 74.4 percent in May, when it was the highest, according to the statistics.
