Enhancing the Tourist Experience:
Uzbekistan is actively working on increasing the duration of tourists' stay in the country through the "One More Day in Uzbekistan" program. This initiative aims to create "tourist rings" that connect various exciting places and destinations, making the journey more enriching and informative.
Seasonal Festivals:
To attract tourists and demonstrate the diversity of tourism in Uzbekistan, festivals will be introduced in 2024 to mark the beginning of each of the four tourist seasons. These festivals will also be focused on different types of tourism, from environmental and extreme to gastronomic and cultural.
Cooperation with Kazakhstan:
Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan have signed an agreement on joint development of pilgrimage tourism. This collaboration opens new opportunities for both states to attract tourists interested in historical and religious sites.
Changes in Drone Import Rules:
Changes have been made to the rules for importing drones for foreign tourists, simplifying the procedure and reducing the level of responsibility for their use. This can improve the experience for travellers who wish to use drones for photo and video shooting.
Development of Tourism Infrastructure:
Significant projects aimed at developing the tourism infrastructure in various regions of Uzbekistan are being implemented. These projects include constructing new tourist centres and shopping complexes, making the stay in the country even more comfortable and exciting for tourists.
These measures are part of Uzbekistan's strategy to expand and improve the tourism industry, paying attention to domestic and international tourism.
