Tourist info office opened in Zavidovici nature park

The popular picnic area and nature park “Tajan” in Zavidovici is enhancing its infrastructure to enable visitors enjoy this unique eco area more by opening the doors of its newly built tourist info office. The project of the info office construction lasted for almost three years and was financed by the EU with 350,000 euro, which accounts for three-quarters of the overall project value.

The closing ceremony of the project was atteneded by Ambassador Peter Sorensen, Mayor of Zavidovici, Suad Omerasevic, Director of Tourism Community of the Zenica-Doboj canton, Senaid Sabanovic, and cantonal and municipal officials.

Speaking at the official closing ceremony of the Tajan project, Ambassador Sorensen said: “Over the past, the EU has invested around 3million EUR in developing tourism in BiH. Tourism in BiH is already on a good track, as there is constant increase of arrivals to BiH from the countries of the region, EU and other, non European countries. However, BiH needs to demonstrate concrete progress in improving the sector’s regulatory framework by harmonising policies, enhancing coordination and a common promotion for the country as well as improving laws and regulations in line with EU standards and requirements.”

On the occasion, two directors of the Tourism community of Zenica-Doboj canton and the park management signed a memorandum of understanding on further joint cooperation in the park development.
