ANKARA, April 20 (Xinhua) -- Türkiye's tourism industry is recovering from a major setback caused by devastating earthquakes that hit the southern part of the country in February, business insiders said.
The number of tourism bookings rose by nearly 40 percent in mid-March compared with that of last year, after a one-and-a-half months slowdown following the earthquakes, said Hamit Kuk, a consultant of the Association of Turkish Travel Agencies.
