Cox’s Bazar tourism businesses to resume partially from Monday

Sea beaches, tourist spots and hotels-motels in Cox’s Bazar will reopen on a limited scale for tourists from Monday after about a five-month closure due to COVID-19 pandemic.

“Tourism and relevant businesses in Cox’s Bazar municipality area will be allowed to reopen from tomorrow (Monday) maintaining the health guidelines strictly,” said Deputy Commissioner of Cox’s Bazar M Kamal Hossain.

District administration’s tourist cell took this decision at a meeting recently, reports BSS.

In consultation with the members of the tourist cell, the administration has prepared guidelines and health directives in line with the government’s instructions to ensure safety of tourists.

The local administration in cooperation of the tourist cell will monitor the implementation of the guidelines. Action will be taken if anyone violates the instructions.

All hotels-motels and tourist spots remained closed from March 18 due to coronavirus outbreak in the country.

Over 470 hotels and motels, around 2,000 food outlets, tourism-based business houses and thousands of workers in the sector remained almost idle since March 18.
