Zell am See has seen a slight decline in tourists from the Gulf region and is focusing on a "healthy mix of nations". More and more are now booking apartments in the surrounding area. A walk along the lakeside promenade in the footsteps of exotic guests.

It is a feeling of "1001 Nights" when the golden Arabian weeks in "Selamse" (Zell am See) begin every year at the beginning of August: This is when veiled women once again dominate the picture on the lakeside promenade.
