The Baikal-Amur Mainline is not only a strategically important logistics corridor and transport flows. By the 50th anniversary of the road, which it will celebrate in 2024, it has become obvious that its present and future are connected, among other things, with tourism. New vectors of development and revision of BAM's life path are being approved today within the framework of the interregional project "BAM Tourist": six regions of the Far East and Siberia have united to make BAM a powerful tourist brand at the federal level. There are all the prerequisites for this: there are unique tourist attractions in the spheres of natural, industrial, cultural and cognitive tourism, united by convenient and understandable logistics.
