The fabulous landscapes and the purest mountain air, a variety of fauna and flora, the ancient places for pilgrimage and a unique national health resort all are Zaamin.
Zaamin is a very interesting place for nature lovers. This small town is in the centre of the mountainous region of the Jizzakh region. You will not find a better place to travel for camping! The natural beauty of this place leaves no one indifferent. Mountain air is so clear that sometimes, it makes you dizzy, the National PR-centre writes.
The fragrances of various flowers and herbs will not leave you throughout the trip, changing aromas with such frequency that you do not have time to enjoy all the notes of these amazing scents. In addition to all the natural beauty that can be found here, this area is also famous for its ancient history. Here you can see the ruins of fortresses and monuments of different eras. However, the main attraction is the reserve, created in 1960 to preserve the unique nature of this place. The area of the park reaches 10.5 hectares and most of it is occupied by forests.
Also in the reserve, you can find mountain ranges, gorges and hills. The highest part of the mountain range is Shaukartau Mount with a height of more than 4000 meters. The significant places of this park include “Boboyongok” – an ancient hazel, which, according to rough estimates, is about 700 years old. Its height is 20 meters, and it reaches almost 3 meters in diameter. A very interesting cave was found in a local village not far from the reserve. In its bowels, the archaeologists found the tools of primitive people. The walls of the cave are decorated with drawings. “Zaamin” sanatorium and several other rest houses and children’s camps are also located on the territory of the reserve.
