Jibek Joly tourist train departs for another journey on Nauryz holiday

The Jibek Joly tourist train is setting off on its next journey, this time in celebration of the Nauryz holiday. From March 20 to 25, passengers will travel to Almaty, Turkistan, Tashkent, Samarkand, and one of the most ancient cities of Central Asia – Taraz. Over five days, travelers will explore the spiritual heritage of the Silk Road and discover the rich cultures of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. Tourists will visit an ethno-village, witness a demonstration of rituals, and taste national dishes. This marks the train’s third trip since the Jibek Joly railway tour between Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan launched in November last year. Not only local tourists but also guests from Türkiye, the Kyrgyz Republic, Russia and other countries have already shown interest in the project.
