OLUDENIZ, TURKEY - SEPTEMBER 05: Paragliders are seen over the mountains at sunset after taking off from Baba Mountain on September 5, 2017 in Oludeniz, Turkey. Turkey's tourism industry spiraled into crisis in 2016 after a year of terrorist attacks, diplomatic rows and political uncertainty. Since then the tourism industry has struggled with foreign tourist numbers plummeting. However recent government figures for May 2017, show a 16per cent rise in numbers on the previous year, bringing hope to local businesses and tour operators. Despite the return of Russian and European charter tour flights to Turkey and the overall increase in tourist numbers the industry is burdened with a 17bn debt and with the current political crisis between Turkey and Germany continuing to deepen recovery continues to be slow.
