Resorts of Uzbekistan
A treasure trove of amazing medieval architecture, Uzbekistan attracts the interest of travelers who want to taste the mysterious Central Asia. Those who dream of the painted minarets of Samarkand and the colorful caps of the Bukhara madrasah fly here. A special tourist arrives in Tashkent - experienced, sophisticated and fastidious, for whom ordinary beaches and "package" rest are already a long passed stage. Indeed, only in the resorts of Uzbekistan can you bargain hoarsely in the eastern market and become the owner of a handmade silk carpet at a pleasant price or find peace over a bowl of fragrant green tea in the shade of a cozy teahouse.
Always in the TOP
For many travelers who are not too familiar with the tourist opportunities of Central Asia, information about the ski resorts of Uzbekistan becomes a real discovery. It would seem that in a country of deserts and merciless temperature values, forcing the thermometer columns to strive upward indefinitely, we cannot talk about skiing in principle..
It turns out that the ski resorts of Uzbekistan exist only a few tens of kilometers from the capital, and the skiing season starts there in early December:
- The Chimgan ski base is located at an altitude of more than one and a half thousand meters above sea level in the mountains of the Chatkal ridge. In translation, Chimgan is a "green slope", but from December to March quite serious ski slopes are laid here, marked with "red". Beginning athletes at this resort of Uzbekistan have plenty of space - many short slopes, experienced instructors, "green" slopes and equipment rental points will help them fall in love with alpine skiing once and for all..
- The Uzbek resort Beldersay is distinguished by a particularly long season. They begin to ride here in November, and the last fans of flying down the slope with a breeze meet on the local tracks until mid-May. This resort has FIS certified giant slalom and special slalom slopes, which means that the level of preparation of the slopes here is very high. The presence of the "black" slope makes Beldersay very attractive for very experienced skiers, and the possibility of heli-skiing attracts wealthy fans of winter extreme to the resort..
