BUKHARA REGION: CHALLENGES, PROSPECTS, AND STRATEGIC SOLUTIONS

Аннотация

This article presents a systematic scholarly examination of the prospects, structural impediments,
and resolution strategies pertaining to the advancement of evening tourism in the Bukhara region
of Uzbekistan. The theoretical foundation of this study draws upon large-scale empirical research
conducted in China regarding nocturnal tourism safety (Huang et al., 2023) as well as scholarly
contributions addressing the cultivation of after-dark tourism experiences in India (Dhakad &
IITTM, 2018). The findings confirm that Bukhara's exceptional historical heritage, favourable
climatic conditions, and pre-existing tourism infrastructure collectively constitute a robust basis
for the sector's development. Nonetheless, the analysis identifies persistent challenges including
safety-related vulnerabilities, regulatory constraints, insufficient public awareness among
residents, and deficiencies in nighttime lighting infrastructure. The article proposes a multidimensional framework encompassing policy reforms, infrastructural enhancements, and
community engagement measures as an integrated approach to overcoming these obstacles.
