Tourism Services in Uzbekistan
Uzbekistan is located on the crossroads of the ancient Silk Road, which has attracted thousands of traders and invaders throughout the centuries. Because of its strategic location, it was the center of events between Russia and Great Britain later referred to as the Great Game. There are various reasons why tourists visit Uzbekistan. This region was the center of Islamic ideology, and the craddle of the first Renaissance that brought up scientists such as Avicenna, Al Khorezmi, Al Beruni and others. The legacy left by ancestors in terms of constructions and traditions is well preserved in ancient cities of Samarkand, Bukhara, and Khiva. The influence of various nations (arabs, mongols, russians) on the aborigens of Central Asia left its footprints on culture, architecture and social life. For the people who appreciate oriental arts and history Uzbekistan is a must-visit place. However, the range of tourism services is mainly focused on only historical sightseeing. Recreational tourism services are underdeveloped. High travel costs, tourism infrastructure problems, and lack of qualified personnel are main issues that pull back tourism development.
