2020 in Uzbekistan has been declared the "Year of the Development of Science, Education and the Digital Economy". But few people guessed at the beginning of the year that this would become so relevant in the current situation.

Now the country is going through difficult times and digitalization of all sectors of the economy is becoming a priority for the entire state.

Tourism is moving in the same direction.

It was recently announced that Uzbekistan will begin to develop online tourism, which will increase the visibility of our country abroad and increase the flow of tourists in the post-crisis period, thereby making up for the losses incurred during the pandemic. In this direction, the State Committee for Tourism with the State Unitary Enterprise "National PR Center" is working on the development of the site online-tourism.uz, which will include several sections, both "For tourists" and "For entrepreneurs in the field of tourism" and "For startups ".

Today we would like to dwell on the first section "For tourists", which is integrated with the national tourist web portal www.uzbekistan.travel.

About the portal www.uzbekistan.travel

Work on improving the site uzbekistan.travel was started at the beginning of this year. This is the official tourism resource of our country, which includes information about the tourism potential of Uzbekistan, useful information, historical and cultural data, interesting facts and tourist routes.

On this portal, we tried to convey the beauty of every corner of our country in an "accessible and convenient" language for tourists, as well as for the inhabitants of our Motherland.

There is a section "Tourism for All", where tourist routes throughout the country are detailed, which are constantly updated online.

In the section "Traveler" you can find all the necessary information that you may need, both before arriving in our country, and during your stay.

One of the main sections is "Attractions", where you can take virtual excursions along the tourist routes of the country. At the same time, everyone here can find what he needs, whether it be unexplored ecotourism routes, objects of ziyorat tourism or Buddhist heritage, architectural and archaeological monuments or museums.

Particular attention is paid to the section on the website "Photo Gallery", the advantage of which is not just viewing photos about Uzbekistan, but also the availability of their download in high resolution. This is done so that everyone can use one or another unique photographs for free in order to present our country, or simply keep it as a keepsake and share it with friends.

What is not unimportant, the site has introduced interactive services that allow the user to ask a question online in any foreign language.

At the same time, cooperation has been established with travel companies in Uzbekistan, and this makes it possible to order a tour on the Internet being online, which you like.

The external and internal interface of the site is designed with the latest trends, taking into account modern technologies.

Languages

The uzbekistan.travel portal is planned to be run in 15 languages, including Russian, Uzbek, English, German, Japanese, Chinese, French, Turkish, Spanish, etc.

For each language version of the site, a separate structure will be developed, which will include the interests and search queries of residents of the corresponding region, which will allow you to receive exactly the information in which residents from different countries of the world are interested.

Virtual excursions

In general, the site uzbekistan.travel contains entertaining, historical and educational content about Uzbekistan, which would allow us to look at our country in a new way, discover its unexplored corners and learn its culture and history from the inside.

To do this, in many sections, videos, 3D photos and VR panoramas of Uzbekistan's sights are actively posted, which allow you to make virtual tours of our country without leaving your home.
