Soufli, as a special tourist destination, has a lot to offer but also to gain from the network of Best Tourism Villages. We are grateful for the trust of the BTV network and POT, and I am sure that this will be the beginning of an extremely fruitful cooperation and a very interesting journey for our acoustic Soufli and its inhabitants. As a Ministry we will continue and intensify our effort, so that the Greek tourism of the future is enriched with more quality options, and each region of the country to develop its tourism potential,
