MAIN FACTORS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF TOURISM 
2.1. The Great Silk Road and the importance of developing tourism on it 
There are a number of factors influencing the development of modern tourism, 
and at present, one of the non-productive sectors of the economy, in particular 
modern tourism, is

receiving increasing attention all over the world, including 
Uzbekistan. People are increasingly trying to spend their free time productively, 
learn national traditions, relax, restore their health, and learn their values. All such 
services are provided by the tourism sector. In addition, mankind has always 
changed its scope of action and sought to discover new lands. By the 20th century, 
such aspirations increased and gave a great impetus to the development of the 
modern tourism industry. In some countries, the tourism sector is developing very 
steadily, and their annual growth rate reaches 8-10%. These countries can include 
Spain, Italy, France, USA and other countries. It is interesting to note that along with 
the development of modern tourism, transport, market infrastructure, trade, food 
industries, construction, crafts and other service sectors have developed. Our 
republic has very rich opportunities for the development of international cooperation 
in the field of tourism. These include the fact that a branch of the "Great Silk Road" 
passes through our republic, our world-famous historical and national cities of 
Samarkand, Bukhara, Khiva, Shakhrisabz, Kokon, Tashkent and other cities, our 
regions rich in natural and healing resources. Chimyan, Shakhimardon, Zomin, 
Boysun, Sherabad and other cities are included. Up to now, it can be considered that 
the foundation for the development of modern tourism in Uzbekistan has been laid. 
The proof of this is the adoption of the Law "On Tourism" of the Republic of 
Uzbekistan on August 20, 1999. The purpose of the law is to legally regulate 
relations in the field of modern tourism, tax, develop the market of tourist services, 
as well as protect the rights and legal interests of tourists. Another evidence is the 
active participation of the Republic of Uzbekistan in the restoration of the "Great 
Silk Road" and the adoption by the President of the decree on the development of
