Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/03/2014 -- Tourist attractions showed a positive performance in 2013, with 7% growth in current value terms, despite the fact that the country lacks entertainment venues. Nevertheless, growth was driven by people visiting historic buildings/sites, which reached 28 million visitors in 2013. Growth came as the Saudi Commission for Tourism and Antiquities made diligent efforts to boost tourism by reviving archaeological sites such as Madain Saleh, Al Dir?iya and Old Jeddah. Pre-Islamic sites were also restored, and investments were made to improve and upgrade the National Museum. Further efforts included the organisation of the National Heritage Built Forum annually, which focuses on the preservation and promotion of the country?s National Heritage sites. These efforts helped to develop the interest of domestic and incoming tourists in exploring the country?s historic sites, which led to growth.
