ArabiaWeather.com - The Turkish newspaper, Zaman, reported that about 1,300 hotels are for sale in the Mediterranean and Aegean regions due to the decline in the number of tourists, as tourism in Turkey witnessed a significant decline in the number of Russian tourists who go especially to the coastal resorts of the Mediterranean, such as Antalya, The number of Russian tourists in 2015 reached 3.65 million, compared to 4.5 million in 2014.

Russian travel agencies have been banned from organizing trips to Turkey for security reasons since the end of last November. As a result, the number of Russian tourists decreased by 46% in December compared to the same period in 2014.

Russia also decided to ban non-scheduled "charter" flights and stop selling tickets for tourist trips to Turkey. The restrictions also included the imposition of entry visas on Turkish citizens and the prohibition of the use of Turkish labor in Russia, and these measures entered into force starting from the beginning of 2016.
