The Development Bank (ADB) has approved a $10 million grant to help Tajikistan develop tourism in the country. The project is ADB’s first tourism sector operation in Tajikistan.

“Tajikistan has considerable advantages for the development of tourism, given its beautiful mountainous landscape, natural resources, as well as cultural and historical ties with the ancient Silk Road and even earlier eras,” said ADB Project Administration unit head in Tajikistan Mr. Raza Farrukh.-"But the tourism potential of the country remains untapped. Thanks to this project, we will move the government’s efforts on developing  tourism sector to a new level. ” 

The project will prepare a comprehensive tourism development plan, including market demand analysis and skill mapping, as well as strengthening institutional capacity in the sector.
