Today a nationwide yowar signifying the start of regular mass landscape gardening campaign has taken place in Turkmenistan. Yowar - the joint benevolent labour was named so in ancient times. This is one of the most widespread national customs in the East, which has always ranked extremely important place also in the life of the Turkmen nation. Gathering together by the call of heart, respecting neighbors like immediate relatives, the village people, as the saying goes, altogether were helping each other to build new house, and prepare for a wedding. At all times our forefathers were often completing different activities with yowar. Together they cleaned channels, laid out gardens and vineyards. It’s noble Turkmen tradition.
Main peculiarity of yowar is that it is based on gratuitous help. On this occasion women prepared various dishes, and laid large table-cloth for participants of the event. If to ask anybody what yowar is, then everyone answers – it is a common holiday.
And at present this ancient tradition has not lost its significance. Turning of Turkmenistan into blooming garden is an important part of reformatory program of President of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov. It is really a cherished dream of people who live in the country where 80 percent of total area is Garagum desert. Every tree is an original symbol of succession of generations.
Mass landscape gardening program covers Kopetdag foothills, National tourist zone “Avaza”, green belt adorns the Garagum river, Turkmen lake “Altyn asyr”. Today the forests emerge practically around every city, settlement, village, driving off the sands of Garagum desert far away. Putting into exploitation of every new construction facility is already inconceivable without creation of green zone and accomplishment of adjacent territory. At that the main task is the creation of harmonious interrelation of plantations with natural relief of location and architectural structures.
Within the last years it is emerged many new parks and green zones. It is notable that the first seedlings there were planted by our President. It was so in seaside settlement Esenguly, and new etraps Ruhubelent, Dowletli, Altyn sahra, during putting into exploitation of first stage of Turkmen lake and National tourist zone “Avaza”, new green massif around eastern market ”Altyn asyr” in Ashgabat.
