Małopolska is a leader in terms of facilities certified by the Polish Tourist Organization for the safest tourism facilities in the region. Several hundred objects from Małopolska are on this list, informed Tomasz Urynowicz, the voivodeship deputy marshal.
"We guarantee that our facilities and attractions meet sanitary requirements," said Urynowicz and appealed to tourists to observe the restrictions - wearing masks, washing hands, social distance. The deputy marshal emphasized that Małopolska's routes and other tourist facilities are becoming more and more popular.
Urynowicz noted that so far, as part of the Małopolska Anti-Crisis Shield, almost one-third of PLN 256 million, intended for entrepreneurs, has gone to economic entities operating in the tourism industry. As he added, 10 percent of Małopolska's GDP comes from tourism, and 100,000 people are employed in the industry.
"We cannot let the tourism stop," he noted.
