SUSTAINABLE TOURISM DEVELOPMENTSTRATEGY AND PLANFOR THE OSH REGION
21 августа, 2020The history of Kyrgyzstan’s tourism industry has more than one decade. Starting from the second half of the 20th century, Lake Issyk-Kul in the north of the republic has firmly cemented its reputation as one of the flagships of domestic tourism in the Soviet Union. It was here that capacious boarding houses, children’s health camps and sanatoriums of all-Union significance were built. The southern region of Kyrgyzstan with its center in Osh was mostly left out of these large-scale processes. And even today, when increased attention is paid to the catching-up development of the southern regions of the country, the tourism industry of the Osh Region1 continues to be financed by a leftover principle.
