By Trend
The western Iranian city of Hamedan will host 150 cultural elites and ambassadors from 56 countries in early October, İRNA reports.
Hamedan, Capital of Asian Tourism in 2018, is to showcase the
province’s tourist attractions and luminaries in an exhibition at
Avicenna’s tomb, said Ali Dashtaki, the event’s organizing
committee secretary.
The historical city was approved as the “capital of Asian tourism
in 2018” in the second ACD Tourism Ministers Meeting hosted by
Cambodia in June 2017.
Hamedan was earlier host to the Asian Cooperation Dialogue
conference in late August and will receive the 40th World Tourism
Organization (UNWTO) Plenary Session of the Affiliate Members from
November 12 to 14.
The event will open on Wednesday and continue for three days.
