International Bakhshilik festival in my beautiful land-Syr Darya

Bakhshchilik is a legacy of our great ancestors who had the power to create civilizations between two great rivers, Jayhun and Sayhun. In the years of independence, our national identity was restored, and in recent years, this cultural and material heritage of ours has been widely celebrated all over the world.
In particular, Navroz has gained prestige in the UNESCO list as an international value. The 1000th anniversary of the Alpomish epic, which reached us thanks to the art of giving, was widely celebrated in the world under the auspices of UNESCO at the initiative of Uzbekistan.
This year, the “International Bakhshichilik” festival, which embodies our national traditions, was held in the new Syrdarya, which is unique and exciting.
More than 30 music performers, 80 well-known culture and art representatives and honored guests, as well as about 50 mass media representatives from more than 40 foreign countries and international organizations who expressed their desire to participate in the festival, attended the festival. Preparations for this international festival were made in the region with great enthusiasm.
