Restaurants, cafes and bars in Uzbekistan are closing at 23:00 and the State Committee for Tourism receives comments from tourists and owners of catering establishments.

Aziz Abdukhakimov underlined that the committee suggested that those cafes and restaurants, which want to work around the clock, should ensure the safety of tourists, as well as comply with the requirements of the tourist-friendly system.

“State Tourism Committee developed a corresponding draft resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Uzbekistan. I think, soon we will have catering facilities, which will work 24 hours, he said.

The tourist-friendly system envisages voluntary certification of accommodation facilities, food outlets, galleries, museums, transport organizations and other objects of tourist display and tourist infrastructure.
