With approximately 3/4 of a million people employed in the tourism industry in 2030, Ballas' administration has had a strong interest in increasing Milan's tourism industry. In 2030, Milan had 121-million visitors, making a record for the state and sits with the highest tourism-related visitorship in the country. Milan is especially friendly to international tourists, who come to visit the state's beach towns and culture. Because Milan's tourism industry has grown so explosively over the years, the commonwealth has granted the public a right to beach access at all public beaches in the state. The state is also dotted with amusement parks and resorts, which are scattered amongst the Promontoire and Est regions. | ||
