Tourists visit Red Square in Moscow during World Tourism Day
epa11628200 Tourists walk on the Red Square outside the Kremlin during World Tourism Day in Moscow, Russia, 27 September 2024. Restrictions on travel to Western countries for Russian citizens due to the ongoing Ukrainian conflict contribute to a large number of them opting for travel within the country, and tourist flow between Russia and BRICS countries is growing every year. World Tourism Day has been observed annually on 27 September since 1980, to foster awareness about the importance of tourism and its cultural and economic value. EPA/MAXIM SHIPENKOV
