In addition, to determine the ways of growth and development of tourism in the city through the creation and use of "smart cities". As a result of this study, it was determined that although there is a close connection between "smart city" and "smart tourism", "Smart city" plays a crucial role in the growth and development of tourist destinations. A smart city is the result of interconnections of tourist complexes. In the article, there are proposals to use the principles of "smart tourist cities" in the city of Turkestan. By using the principles of a smart tourist city, the way to form the brand of the city of Turkestan will be opened. The article uses statistical and survey methods. The answers to the survey were entered into the SPSS 22 program, and the normative test results and factor analysis were made regarding the variable elements for creating a smart city.
