Thus, the most popular resort destinations in the CIS countries include Borovoye (Kazakhstan), Issyk-Kul (Kyrgyzstan), Narach (Belarus) and Lankaran (Azerbaijan).

Turstat noted that Russian tourists book their rest in Lankaran for some 7 days, as well as for 10 days at the Issyk-Kul lake, 8 days at the lake Narach, and 12 days in Borovoye.
