Among the 19 award winners, Unique Image was the only foreign company to receive this award for their cooperation in activating media coverage of Syrian Tourism and captivating world traveler's enthusiasts.
"It's extremely rewarding to be acknowledged for our efforts in 2009 and 2010," says Michael Lloyd, Vice President of Unique Image, Inc.

Syria is one of the 15 cradles of civilization bridging the cultures of the Mediterranean and the Fertile Crescent. Syria lies at the eastern end of the Mediterranean, between Lebanon and Turkey providing striking natural scenery, rugged mountain with peaks covered of snow, green valleys, desertscapes and a gorgeous coast consisting of long stretches of beach and green mountains. It's most vital resources are petroleum and natural gas. Syria also showcases magnificent ancient ruins in the middle of the desert, medieval castles, fortresses and rich Arabian culture with a taste for traditional art such as dance, literature and handicraft.
Syria's tourism sector shows great potential and the number of tourists who visit the country each year is on the rise. "The excellent work of our North American Delegation has led to a 48% increase in tourism from the United States already this year and there are still three months left; this is a quick accomplishment for Syria," His Excellency Dr. Saadallah Agha Alqalah, Syrian Minister of Tourism said at the opening Silk Road press conference.
