Figures released by The
National Tourism Center show that there has been a 50.9% increase in the number
of tourists arriving in Mongolia in the first six months of 2010 over the
corresponding period last year. Citizens from Asia Pacific countries account
for more than half of the 233,612 foreign citizens who came, followed by those
from Europe.

Last year was bad for the
industry, with the global economic recession complementing the swine flu scare
in Mongolia to finally show a 20% slump from arrivals the previous year. This
year’s tourists are estimated to have contributed USD 88.3 million to
Mongolia’s economy.
