Historical and cultural tourism occupies one of leading places among main types of tourism. Interesting routes, various scopes of excursions broaden horizons, develop intelligence, form esthetic taste, and help to realize a real picture of the world better.
Environmental tourism typically defined as travel to destinations where the flora, fauna, and cultural heritage are the primary attractions. Responsible ecotourism includes programs that minimize the adverse effects of traditional tourism on the natural environment, and enhance the cultural integrity of local people.
Medical tourism is when a person travels to another country for medical care. Each year, millions of US residents participate in medical tourism.
According to Tajikistan’s Tourism Development Committee, tour agencies of Tajikistan, Iran and Uzbekistan have signed more than 50 new cooperation documents during the forum.
