"The fact that nearly 25,000 people from more than 150 countries
have already registered is an indication of the high interest in
the event. The success of this event is not only related to the

inclusion, and improving the quality of life are among the main

urban planning policy. At the same time, consistent measures are
being taken to shape the urban landscape, increase green zones, and
protect architectural objects. Our projects in line with the
