Abu Dhabi heads to Europe in tourism bid

Abu Dhabi will highlight its tourism appeal during trips to four cities in four days. According to national news agency WAM, the emirate’s Tourism and Culture Authority will visit Milan on March 14, followed by Paris, Manchester and Amsterdam. It’s in a bid to build on impressive numbers of inbound tourists from Europe, with 400,000 arriving last year. The UK is Abu Dhabi’s second biggest international source market, while the number of visitors from Italy grew by just over a quarter in 2015.
