The Islamic Civilization Center in Uzbekistan, created under the leadership of the esteemed President Shavkat Mirziyoyev, is a truly magnificent project. By participating in the international congress “Central Asia: shared spiritual and educational heritage – shared future,” we had the opportunity to become closely acquainted with this building. The site is exceptionally fascinating. Its architectural design, reminiscent of an ancient ensemble, immediately captured our attention.

When we entered inside, exploring the museum and its exhibitions, it became difficult to put into words the emotions we felt. The museum is incredibly rich and organized at a remarkably high scientific and educational level.

It is evident that numerous scholars, academics, museum specialists, artists, and designers have invested tremendous effort into this place.

We studied every section and every historical period of Uzbekistan. This is an entire epoch, an entire historical journey.

When speaking about museums, we can confidently say that they are the hearth and guardians of national values. At the same time, they serve as a radiant bridge connecting the past with the future. Today, we witnessed this in practice.

What is impressive is that the museum is equipped with modern technology. There are many interactive tools and video materials. This will certainly help educate future generations, inspiring in them interest and love for history.

Since today’s Congress is being held precisely in this Center, all delegates from Central Asian countries and Azerbaijan are participating. Each of us is saying: our history is one, our culture is one, even our languages are similar. Likewise, we all wish for a free, peaceful, united, and prosperous future.
