The Romanian printed media write that Turkey, Bulgaria and Greece are the most preferred tourist destinations by the Romanians, when it comes to sea resorts, cited by the Bulgarian National Radio.
However, the terrorist attacks and political instability in Turkey has resulted in decreased tourist interest towards the state.
