Several sanatoriums have been opened here: a children's tuberculosis sanatorium, as well as the Okhalik sanatorium, where specialized courses are held on the treatment of diseases of the nervous system, cardiovascular system, gastrointestinal tract and other wellness procedures.
The mountains of the Sakhalin Ridge are very popular as a hiking destination, for one-day and multi-day trips. Since the mountains here are low, even those who have never climbed the mountains can climb them. Excursions are organized for professionals to conquer more difficult peaks, such as Mount Kemkutan. There are several recreation areas in the village such as “Oqbo‘yroGarden”, “Hokimbobo”, “Oila”, “Sharshara” and others.
