The overall objective of the project is integrated construction and improvement of the historical promenade areas in Narva/Estonia and Ivangorod/Russia and conversion of the CBC area into attractive place as united tourist destination. The present project is a follow-up of the Integrated development of the historical riverside protection area in Narva/Estonia and Ivangorod/Russia project implemented by partners in 2007 – 2009; it continues activities and gives added value to development of cross-border area as a united tourism destination making it attractive for tourists and ensuring stable sustainable development of the cross-border region. The previous project resulted in development of documentation pack (technical, economic studies, development of tourist products and construction projects) that allows partners to construct promenade areas. The implemented studies show that riverside area being located in historical medieval city parts is in poor condition, needs improvement of landscaping, access ways and basic infrastructure. The project gives value added to Estonia/EU – Russian border region by contributing to enhancement of the cities image and living environment, increases the cities competitiveness and the quality of recreation possibilities attracting more tourists, ensures fast development and increased competitiveness. With construction of promenades in historical medieval parts in Narva and Ivangorod riverside zones become attractive recreation areas, that gives strong impetus for further development of promenades as tourist products. Narva (Lead Partner) and Ivangorod municipalities are project partners in this project. Committee for physical culture, sports and tourism of Kingisepp region (Russia), Ida-Viru County Government, Environmental Board of Estonia and Heritage Conservation Board of Estonia are project associated partners. Main project activities are: management and coordination; information and visibility; integrated construction of promenades in Ivangorod and Narva, organisation of information tour for journalists, project partners, potential investors, stakeholders, tourist companies.
