"Despite the pandemic, Erciyes had a very successful winter season," Cıngı underlined, so investments that started before the winter season still continue, he said.
"Construction for Turkey's largest mountain hotels, the Xperia Hotel and Radisson Blu Hotel, continues in Erciyes," besides the high altitude sports center by Kayseri Municipality, he said.
"We are talking about an investment of nearly 500 million Turkish Liras ($70 million)," Cıngı said.
Noting that the number of foreign tourists visiting Erciyes rose significantly in the last four years thanks to charter flights, Cıngı said the ski resort generated $100 million in income this ski season (December-March).
