According to data from the National Statistics Committee, 142,500 tourists from Turkmenistan visited Uzbekistan in the first five months of this year. This was reported by IIC.

A total of 4.2 million foreign guests visited the country during this period, which is 1.4 million more than in the same period last year. The main flow of tourists came from neighbouring countries: Kyrgyzstan (1.28 million), Tajikistan (993,700), Kazakhstan (889,600), Russia (334,300) and Afghanistan (199,200). A significant number of tourists also arrived from Turkey (65,800) and China (51,900).

Experts attribute the growth in Uzbekistan's tourist appeal to improvements in infrastructure, simplified visa procedures and an active advertising campaign aimed at promoting the country as a popular travel destination.
