The Turkmenistan pavilion at the International Tourism Fair ‘Tourism on the Silk Road’, which took place on 27-29 November in Tashkent, attracted a large number of visitors. Guests learned about the history, culture and nature of the country, took a keen interest in tourist routes and expressed their desire to include Turkmenistan in future trips, according to Orient.

Turkmen travel companies held a series of meetings with foreign partners. As a result of the negotiations, preliminary agreements were reached on cooperation and the participation of foreign companies in exhibitions in Turkmenistan.

The country also presented its opportunities at a business session, where inbound tourism and the prospects for the exhibition industry were discussed.

A cultural programme was held at the venue. Among the most discussed moments were performances by creative groups and a dancing robot, which became the main entertainment of the event. In addition, there were competitions between chefs from different countries.

Turkmenistan's participation in the fair provided an opportunity to increase international interest in the tourism sector and expand partnerships.
