After Taxco experienced acts of violence that affected its image at an international level, the president of the Convention and Visitors Bureau of this colonial city, Martín Kendrick Berger, said that foreign tourism has recovered by 50 percent.
“We have had a considerable increase in foreign tourism, approximately 50 percent, and confidence is being recovered due to the actions implemented by the three levels of government,” he said.
In an interview, he said that little by little the confidence of foreign visitors who stopped visiting the colonial city of Taxco de Alarcón due to different acts of violence that occurred last year has been recovered.
