Despite Iran’s vast tourism potential, challenges such as inadequate lodging and recreational infrastructure, land use issues, and restrictions on tapping into natural resources continue to hold things back. However, focusing on sustainable development principles and leveraging local and regional capacities will not only take the pressure off natural resources but also open new avenues for tourism growth. Sustainable tourism development will only come through collaboration among policymakers, the private sector, and local communities.
The government’s role is to support investors and facilitate laws, but strategic cooperation with the private sector is an undeniable necessity. Investors play a crucial role not only in developing infrastructure but also in creating jobs and strengthening the national economy. The government is working hard to clear the runway for Iran to break into the global tourism market, aiming to attract massive investments and develop tourism.
For the country, boosting tourism infrastructure is more than an economic choice—it is a national strategy to cement Iran’s foothold in the region and the world. This path will not only bring economic growth and employment but will also serve as a bridge for stronger links between national identity and international interactions.
