Last week, on the instructions of the President of Turkmenistan, Hero-Arkadag Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov held a meeting on the further development of the Avaza national tourism zone, the effective realisation of the transport and transit potential of the region, the use of the unique natural factors of the Caspian Sea for boosting tourism development and the achievement of the environmental wellbeing of this unique region of Turkmen land during his working trip to the Balkan velayat.

Today, the Avaza national tourism zone, which is part of the strategic socioeconomic development programme of Turkmenistan, has become not only a symbol of a rapidly changing country, but also a brand of the Turkmen state. The pride and admiration embrace everyone who has ever visited the resort, impressive in its scale and comfort, located on the ecologically clean coast of the Caspian Sea. Fashionable hotels and cottage complexes, health and entertainment centres, rest houses for children and adults and natural riches, the clear water, golden sandy beaches and fresh sea air, attract numerous citizens of Turkmenistan and foreign guests to Avaza.
