The 2024 New York Travel & Adventure Show, an international tourism exhibition, is being held these days in New York, USA. In total, the event was attended by about 20,000 participants from more than 160 countries, of which more than a thousand were tour operators.

It is important to note that along with the tourism potential of our country, historical monuments, tourist sites of Samarkand and activities of “Silk Road” International University of Tourism and Cultural Heritage are widely promoted at this exhibition.

Akobir Sultanov, head of the Horica department of our university, took an active part in the exhibition, and the practical work on training qualified specialists in the field of tourism is widely promoted in our university. It is pleasant that due to the purposeful work on exchange of experience and practice of students in countries with developed tourism sphere, our university, along with establishing cooperation with major tourism enterprises, received offers to organise student internships in leading companies.
