Туризм в странах Балтии

Давайте почитаем! Туризм в странах Балтии.

Read the infographic and then use it to complete the short activity below.

Reflection:

Did you notice something problematic about the infographic above? While in one place it uses “страны Балтии”, it also uses the term “Прибалтика”, which many people find to be a colonial term, as you learned on a previous page. The term is still used quite often, even by people from the Baltic countries, so don’t be surprised if you encounter it.

Давайте поговорим! Сравните туризм в странах Балтии.
