Deputy Ambassador of Israel visits Bansko unofficially

The Mayor of Bansko Municipality Stoycho Banenski held an informal meeting with the Deputy Ambassador of Israel to Bulgaria Tadian Poplinger. He is among the diplomats who maintain an active interest in the development of Bansko and has visited the city on several occasions.

The conversation was dedicated to the opportunities for deepening bilateral contacts in tourism, culture and sports. It was noted that in recent years more and more citizens of Israel have been choosing Bansko not only for tourism in all seasons, but also as a place for long-term stay. Israeli citizens are among the most active participants in the local real estate market, and many of them are already part of the Bansko community, actively participating in the public, cultural and economic life of the town. The good tradition of prominent performers from Israel participating in the program of the international Bansko Jazz Festival was also pointed out.
