Kids Fest Lined Up to Encourage Domestic Travel

Iran’s Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts and Tourism Organization is planning a tourist festival targeting young audiences in the upcoming summer in various provinces in an effort to draw on the potential of children to boost domestic travel. 
“Children have always played a key role in the selection of a travel destination and we aim to use this capacity to promote family trips in the country,” Mohammad Moheb-Khodaei, deputy for tourism at ICHHTO said, Mehr News Agency reported. 
The pilot scheme was implemented in the period between March 19 and April 3 (roughly corresponding Norouz, the Iranian New Year holidays) in the western provinces with Hamedan as the center for the plan.
