Authority says Hungary tourism not affected by migrant crisis

Hungarian Tourism Ltd. has decided to make a short campaign movie along with a photo series to show tourists how safe the country still is, despite of what they call negative propaganda, Hungary Daily News quotes the online portal of the daily Népszabadság.

The material shows busy tourist centres and popular places. Their aim is to reassure tourists that despite of what some newspapers might write, Budapest and Hungary are still a peaceful and loveable tourist attraction.

According to Tamás Glázer, deputy CEO of Hungarian Tourism Ltd., tourists need to know that despite of the negative news – thousands of refugees living around the Keleti train station, their departure and journey through Hungary to the Western countries – Hungary is still safe, and tourist routes are far from the areas where migrants are staying. No one has been harmed by any of the refugees and no one will be attacked in the future either.
