The Tourism.RF Corporation and the Kaliningrad Region approved an enlarged action plan (road map) for the implementation of the complex investment project “Russian Baltic”. The general director of the corporation, Sergei Sukhanov, and the regional governor, Anton Alikhanov, discussed the development of the resort.
“The territory of the future resort is located in the Zelenogradsky district, 60 km from Kaliningrad. The total area of land plots considered for master planning and further implementation of the project is 125.6 hectares; it is planned to build hotel facilities with a capacity of 3,000 rooms on them,” the Turizm.RF corporation reported on its website.
For the comprehensive development of the resort, all measures to support the national project “Tourism and Hospitality Industry” are being considered. Based on the results of the development of the Russian Baltic master plan, investment lots will be formed for interested investors in 2024.
According to experts, thanks to the development of tourism infrastructure, by 2035 the number of guests of the Russian Baltic resort, taking into account the excursion flow, will be about two million people annually.
“Russian Baltika meets all the requirements of a seaside resort and will attract tourists due to its location on the Baltic Sea coast, a wide and long beach line, natural thermal springs and proximity to unique historical and cultural sites and attractions of the Kaliningrad region,” said Sukhanov, whose words are given in the message.
“Russian Baltic” is being created as part of the project for the development of federal resorts “Five Seas” (on the Baltic, Azov, Black, Caspian and Japanese seas).
