It should be noted that Singapore is one of the richest countries in the South Asian region, and every year millions of tourists go to foreign countries. Since the weather in Singapore is warm all year round and there are no mountainous areas, most Singaporeans go to the ski resorts of Japan, South Korea and European countries.In this regard, Singaporean tourists may be interested in the all-season ski resorts of Uzbekistan, such as Amirsoy, as well as the Charvak-Chimgan and Zaamin ski resorts, which are planned to be launched in the near future.

The first point of the delegation’s stay was also the all-season ski resort "Amirsoy", where the guests got acquainted with the infrastructure facilities of the complex.

According to the director of EU Holidays, Mr. Wong, the conditions created in this complex are not inferior to the ski resorts of Japan or South Korea and are much cheaper in cost. And acquaintance with historical cities such as Samarkand, Bukhara and Khiva help to make the journey of Singaporean guests more eventful.

Representatives of the delegation on 20 May visited the Samarkand region. During the visit, the delegation visited such tourist sites as Guri Emir, the Registan complex, Shakhi Zinda, as well as the Silk Road Samarkand tourist complex, suitable for MICE tourism.
