The cultural program of the Third UN Conference on Landlocked Developing Countries, which will be held in August in “Avaza”, includes interesting events.

One of the central events of the cultural program will be a gala concert that will bring together cultural figures and artists from Central Asian countries on one stage.

Music, dances and traditional costumes of the peoples of the participating countries will demonstrate the incredible richness and diversity of world cultures, the State News Agency of Turkmenistan reports.

The concert will become a symbol of unity in diversity, where each performance reflects the history, spiritual values and traditions of peoples. During the cultural exchange, artificial barriers will be eliminated, mutual understanding will be strengthened and friendly ties will be established.

The concert will also serve as a foundation for interaction between workers in the relevant sphere of Central Asian countries and the development of long-term cultural dialogue in the region.

The festival of national cuisine will gather representatives of different countries at one dastarhan in a magnificent corner of "Avaza" with the aim of demonstrating the peace and unity of peoples.

Central Asian cuisine is a centuries-old layer of gastronomic traditions formed under the influence of geographical, historical and cultural factors. Situated at the crossroads of the Great Silk Road, the countries of the region – Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan – have both common features and unique characteristics in their culinary practices.

Traditional dishes of Turkmen cuisine, prepared on the basis of culinary recipes that have become an integral part of the culture of the hospitable people over many centuries, as well as other national values, make a worthy contribution to the world treasury.

National cuisine is one of the most interesting topics when studying the culture of any country. And in this regard, the Festival of National Cuisine Dishes will provide participants with an opportunity to get acquainted with the culinary heritage of the Central Asian countries.

The organization of such events within the framework of the upcoming Conference emphasizes Turkmenistan's continued commitment to the principles and goals of the UN.
