Traveling in the Aral Sea region, fishing in the Aral and boat trips. Jeep tour from Almaty to the Aral Sea. Let's preserve and save the Aral Sea from drying out and weathering. After the transfer of water by the Soviet Union in the 1960s from the Amu Darya and Sir-Darya rivers merging here, the volume of the lake has sharply decreased. It was designed to drain water for irrigation of crops, mainly cotton, in Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, confrontation between the countries that were formerly part of the former Soviet Union prevented the continual contraction from being halted by misunderstandings; because Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, which share what is left of the Aral Sea, collide with Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, the republics through which the rivers that fed the once great inland sea flow.
