With generous support from our member - The Castle "In Love with the Wind", WTA will be hosting its 2nd Members' Day in 2020 at The Castle in Village Ravadinovo of Sozopol, Bulgaria on March 7th (following the ITB Berlin which concludes on March 6th).
The construction of The Castle, quite a contemporary myth itself, has made it to the WTA Best Practice in Poverty Alleviation through Tourism 2019. We invite you to join us for this unique experience by the Black Sea coast, where we'll share a discussion on Tourism Development and Cultural Inheritance.
We look forward to greeting you in Bulgaria!
