An intergovernmental committee focused on cooperation between Kyrgyzstan and Turkmenistan has met in the Kyrgyz resort of Cholpon-Ata, to discuss the potential for building a Turkmen resort in the city.
Cholpon-Ata, on the shores of Lake Issyk-Kul, is Kyrgyzstan’s main tourist destination, well known in Central Asia for its clean beaches and clear water.
Turkmenistan has been developing its own tourism industry in recent years, based around the new Avaza National Tourism Zone on its Caspian coast.
