It has been experienced a large increase in the number of tourists coming with settlement process. The goal to be among the five countries that earn the highest tourism revenue especially in 2023 will be significant returns for Diyarbakir.
Application has been made on behalf of Diyarbakır Walls to be included in UNESCO World Cultural Heritage List. It is possible to see how the solution would be found for problems experienced today looking at writing written by many civilizations on the walls.Dozens incentives package has been announced on behalf of the region's development in the last 20-30 years.

On the one hand our infrastructure problems gradually resolved, the other hand, we are in a peace process. In April 2012, the incentive law for investors who want to invest in the region bringing in new benefits. In particular, supporting employment and investment costs is very valuable. These supports are even more important especially in the field of tourism.We got to the airport opened to international flights. There is an ongoing project but have no time to wait.

Protection of history and culture should be a life model. For this efforts to create social awareness and self-sacrifice should be continued endlessly.
