Arabian tourists who came to Azerbaijan in summer plan to return here in winter.
The summer of 2016 was marked by a previously unseen inflow of tourists from Arabian countries.
By official statistics, the number of Arabian tourists grew eight times within six months, compared to the same period of the last year. Arabian tourists were coming not only to Baku but also to the regions of the country.
Some tourists say the weather in Azerbaijan in summer is cooler than in their countries, therefore, they will often come here.
Tourist from Iraq Abdul Abbas says that his friends and family 'just felt in love' with fresh Baku weather.
Another Iraqi tourist Bilal Iyad said they will come to Azerbaijan in winter due to fresh weather:
"Because weather in Iraq is different."
Iraqi tourists said they stay at a five-star hotel in Baku, where they pay $550 per person.
