Tatras Mountains: most attractive holiday destination for Slovaks
by Michael Johns
The Tatras Mountains are "the
place to be" according to Slovakian nationals. The high Tatras is Slovakia's
most attractive holiday region, according to a public opinion poll conducted
by the TNS SK agency on a sample of 997 respondents in November 2006.
As much as 45.7 percent of
respondents chose the High Tatras as Slovakia's most attractive region.
Slovak Paradise came in second, with 15.9 percent of respondents labelling
it the most attractive.
The Low Tatras was the most
attractive region for 9.8 percent of respondents. Orava followed with six
percent and Bratislava was fifth with 5.7 percent.
Young people (up to 29 years
of age), older people (over 60 years), citizens of large cities (with a
population over 100,000) and people from the regions of Košice, Banská
Bystrica and Trentín all chose the Tatras mountains as attractive
tourist destinations.
Most respondents go on holiday
to have fun and attend cultural events. Among other important factors when
planning a holiday are opportunities to go hiking in the mountains and
the possibility of relaxing at a spa.
People also like to visit
interesting destinations and see historical monuments. Some Slovaks like
to visit resorts that have sports facilities such as tennis courts, golf
courses, swimming pools, and so on.
A good selection of services
also influences people's selection of holiday destination. For Slovaks,
the most important services include restaurants with a good menu, quality
accommodation in a hotel or a bed and breakfast, and flexibility in planning
meals at their hotel. Other important points included whether or not there
was a pool, fitness centre and the possibility to get a massage. It seems
that healthy living is coming into the foreground for Slovaks even when
they are on holiday. |
