This article reflects the ecotourism opportunities of Jizzakh region. In particular, information was provided on the tourist potential of Zaamin Bakhmal and Forish regions.


INTRODUCTION
In recent years, a number of measures have been taken in our country to preserve Mother Nature and preserve biological species. In 2001-2005, Uzbekistan implemented the GEF International Bank for the Conservation of Biological Diversity of the Western Tien Shan and the international project Europe Aid. These projects are directly related to environmental protection and attracting local people to tourism.
IJMRA, Volume 4 Issue 4 April 2021 www.ijmra.in Page 369 Nature Protection has developed a "Concept for the development of ecotourism in the Republic of Uzbekistan and its near future." This concept envisages the necessary conditions, organizational and legal issues for the gradual development of ecotourism in our country. If these issues are addressed, the Republic of Uzbekistan will have a great opportunity to become one of the most developed countries in the world in the field of ecotourism. Despite the great potential of tourism in Uzbekistan, its share in GDP is only 0.5%. Although the industry employs a total of about 6,000 people, there are at least 30,000 additional jobs that will serve tourists. In addition, other sectors that supply goods and provide various services to replace hospitality -energy, utilities, road services, public safety, medicine, insurance, banking, foreign policy, and connections, etc. (more than 20 sectors of the economy). However, the peculiarity of tourism is that, although it is possible to assess the level and quality of service, the "effects" that can not be measured by any measureimpression, spiritual nourishment, satisfaction, aesthetic pleasures, etc. can be enumerated. According to official data, in 2006 the import of tourist services amounted to 21.2 US dollars per 1 US dollar, in 2007 the ratio was 1: 23.8 US dollars, an increase of 112%. swelling was observed. However, the figures show that exports of services accounted for 14.7%, imports for 24% and the negative balance for 14.3%. It is known that no factor in the world is static, there are changes that lead to an improvement or deterioration of the situation in the country. In other words, tourists respond to changes in the situation with their "feet": if they do not like something, they change their route. In world practice, the volume of annual travel of national and foreign citizens across the country is considered to be domestic tourism. However, it is often difficult to determine the number of tourists who are citizens of this country, because during the trip they do not perform formalities (registration), do not always stay in hotels, boarding houses and holiday homes, their visits are for other purposes (shopping). to do, to visit relatives, to go to weddings). Such trips make up the bulk of domestic travel. Such trips are usually more intense in late spring, early summer, and fall. Such travelers prefer cheaper rail and road transport. At the same time, it should be noted that the share of foreigners in the total volume of domestic tourism is 50.7%, the largest number of foreign visitors is in Tashkent  great heritage and our efforts for development today. , beautification, creation of conditions in accordance with world standards. Jointly approved by the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan dated March 9, 2012 40 "On measures to attract non-discriminatory technical assistance (grants) from international financial and economic institutions, donor countries to the Republic of Uzbekistan in 2010" If we pay attention to the results of the analysis carried out in the framework of the project of the United Nations "Support to local government, civic participation and cooperation", we draw your attention to the following conclusions about the tourist opportunities in the district. So, the strengths of tourism development in the strong Jizzakh region: 1. Ecologically clean and very close to nature is one of the most important issues today.
2. It has healing properties for the human body 3. Existence of the National biological national park which is well studied from biological, ecological, historical and cultural point of view 4. Presence of unique natural, historical and cultural tourist sites in the territory of the People's Park and Zaamin State Reserve. 5. Support of tourism by local and regional leaders. The population has confidence in the future of tourism.
Also as weaknesses: 1. Lack of highly qualified personnel. 2. Insufficient number of managers working in the field of tourism 3. The activity of receiving tourists is still weak, due to the lack of basic resources of the local population, as well as their lack of knowledge and skills in the field of tourism. 4. Lack of qualified staff in the reception and service of tourists among the staff of the national park, as well as poor organization of work in this area. 5. It turns out that there is no mechanism for interaction and support between the local population and the staff of the national park, as well as tourism development agencies. However, it is noted that there are many opportunities for the establishment and further development of tourism in the natural areas of Jizzakh region. 1. Possibility to form an organization responsible for the formation of infrastructure, taking full responsibility. 2. The formation of a body that approaches tourism from a professional point of view. 3. Availability of hospitality and high quality services to visitors. 4. Cooperation of the local population with the management and tourism officials. 5. The fact that the local population and the staff of the national park have at least a little knowledge and skills in the field of tourist services, and efforts are being made to fully explore. It is also noted that there are some risks. For example, 1. So far there are no clear tourist routes and the existing ones are rarely advertised. 2. Decreased payment of state fees in the field of tourism and the lack of attention of local entrepreneurs in this area, despite the availability of other opportunities. 3. The climate of the region is strongly dependent on natural changes. 4. Failure of the staff of the specially protected area in the area to take full responsibility for the management of visitors in the field of tourism. As a result, due to the lack of aesthetic and ecological literacy of tourists and visitors, there is a high level of environmental pollution, life-threatening situations (fires, water pollution, waste, etc.). 5. There are restrictions on the development of domestic and foreign tourism, indicating a lack of knowledge and skills, a onesided approach to tourism, inadequate actions in the organization of souvenirs, folklore and other entertainment activities, wishes.

CONCLUSION
Today, along with all sectors of tourism in the world, there is a growing demand for trips to natural sites and villages. In other words, the types of culture, history and nature study make up 15-23% of the total tourism. Ecotourism occupies 10% of the market compared to some other tourism markets. Its growth rate in the tourism industry has increased by 2-3 times. In developed countries, nature travel is one of the most expensive forms of recreation and study, but thousands of people do not spare their money for it.
