Saudi Arabia is targeting 1.5 million tourists by 2020, according to analysts.

The Saudi Vision 2030 development initiative announced by Deputy Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Salman aims to increase the revenue generated from tourism to 18 percent in the next 14 years, according to reports.

The vision also aims to establish an Islamic museum, which will draw a large number of tourists, including foreign pilgrims who visit the kingdom for Haj and Umrah.

Analysts expect that by 2020, the number of tourists visiting the kingdom would increase from 200,000 to 1.5 million.
