(Bismarck, ND) -- It looks like North Dakota's tourism industry is bouncing back from the COVID-19 pandemic.  

The state outpaced much of the United States in travel spending in 2023 as visitation numbers rose across the board. National park visits, overseas visitors, and border crossings yielded promising results for the future of North Dakota tourism. The increased number of tourists has led to a $3.55 billion-dollar contribution to the state economy.
