https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.20726038Abstract
This article examines the tourism potential of Uzbekistan and analyzes the key financial factors influencing
its development. The study evaluates the country’s natural, cultural, and historical resources as fundamental components
of tourism attractiveness, while emphasizing the role of financial mechanisms such as investment inflows, government
expenditures, and infrastructure financing. Using a mixed-method approach, including statistical analysis and comparative
assessment, the research identifies the relationship between financial indicators and tourism sector growth. The findings
indicate that increased financial support, improved investment climate, and efficient allocation of resources significantly
enhance tourism development. Based on the results, policy recommendations are proposed to strengthen financial strategies
aimed at unlocking Uzbekistan’s tourism potential.
