Literature review:  
The contribution of the scholars of Uzbekistan to the prosperity of the Islamic religion and 
science, their scientific and spiritual heritage, their role in the formation of the Islamic civilization 
of the Central Asian territory, the rich history and hospitality of the people will be the basis for the 
development of visiting tourism in the country. Famous pilgrims like Ismailniyniy, Tsar Bakr, 
Chashmai Ayub, Shahizinda, Ruhabad, Imam Al-Bukhari, Bahouddin Naqshband, Güri Amir, 
Khoja Ahrur, Pahlavon Mahmud, Hazrati Imam, Zangi father, Sultan Saadat, Hakim at-Termiziy 
are proof this opinion. There are some world-famous places of pilgrimage and pilgrimage in the 
country, the visit of which is equated with the small pilgrimage of Islam. In particular, the visit to 
the grave of Qusam ibn Abbas in Samarkand in Central Asia is equated with the visit of the Kaaba. 
[2. 34] Mobile applications on holy shrines and pilgrims have been developed in Uzbekistan for 
the purpose of creating convenience for pilgrims. 
Specific proposals for the development of pilgrimage tourism in Uzbekistan are being 
developed, and attention is being paid to the issue of informing the world community about the 
possibilities of visiting tourism of the Republic. Great attention is paid to the development of a 
new tourism brand in Uzbekistan, creation of all necessary conditions for visitors, improvement 
of existing tourist routes taking into account the requirements of visitors.
The number of tourists coming from Turkey, Pakistan, Malaysia, Iran, Indonesia, the United 
Arab Emirates and other countries has increased in the direction of visiting Uzbekistan. In May 
2019, in Samarkand an international scientific and practical conference was held on the theme
“renaissance of pilgrimage tourism in the Great Silk Road resort.”
The religious shrines themselves are not enough for pilgrimage tourism. In order to attract 
tourists, promotional work should be well established such as a favorable visa regime, conditions 
for the performance of worship activities at the airport, hotels etc.
In Bukhara, there are the churchyard of Tsar Bakr, prayer hall, Sayfiddin Baharzi, Kalon, 
Magogi Attari, piri dastgir, Khoja Ismat machites, as well as many holy places of pilgrimage and 
shrines. Imam Al-Bukhari shrine, and shrines of “seven pirs” before going on pilgrimage and 
pilgrimage to Mecca and Medina. These are Abduhalik Ghijduvani, called the world Master among 
the people, Khoja Muhammed Orif Ar revgari called “Khoja Orif Mohitabon”; Khoja Mahmud fig 
fag’nawi, Khoja Ali Romitani, whose name among the people is “Khoja Azizon,” Haja 
Muhammad Father Samasiy, Said Mir Gulal, and Khazrat Bahouddin Naqshbandiy, known among 
the people as “the Great Khoja,” “the Sultan of Saints”. 
In the IX-XII and XIV-XV centuries of the Eastern awakening period, Islamic sciences 
were developed in several directions on the territory of Uzbekistan in the manner of scientific 
wisdom, based on the knowledge of the word, the knowledge of narration, the knowledge of 
Monotheism, the knowledge of the faith, the knowledge of man with the help of the world. 
There are many other holy places and shrines for the development of pilgrimage tourism in 
Uzbekistan. In the Surkhandarya region, there are Khakim at-Termizi Ensemble, the Tomb of 
Sultan Saadat, the Tomb of Abu Muhammad at-Termizi, the Forty-girl Fortress, the monument of 
Fayoztepe, Buddhist temple, Zartepa, Dalvarzintepa, the Old Termez, the monuments of

The center of Islamic civilization of Uzbekistan, the International Islamic Academy, the Mir 
Arab High School, the international research centers of Imam Bukhari and Imam Termizi serve to 
study and promote the rich scientific and historical heritage of Uzbekistan. In order to develop 
visiting tourism in Uzbekistan, to increase its attractiveness, it is necessary to draw up a tourist 
map of the holy shrines in Uzbekistan, to create favorable conditions for visitors, to conduct 
propaganda work well, to improve the service of the tranport system, and to pay attention to the 
issue of preparation of gid-translators. 
Decree of the president of the Republic of Uzbekistan “on measures to ensure the rapid 
development of the tourism sector of the Republic of Uzbekistan” dated December 2, 2016, as well 
as consistent efforts to develop the tourism sector in Uzbekistan, the Office of Muslims of 
Uzbekistan also made a worthy contribution to the development of visiting tourism. It serves to 
create suitable conditions for visitors, development of routes of visiting tourism and agreements. 
Great attention is paid to the development of visiting tourism in Uzbekistan. The role and 
importance of shrines and pilgrims in the development of tourism has increased, such as Imam al-
Bukhari, Shahizinda, Khoja Ahrori Vali, Mahdumi Uzham, Abu Mansur Moturidi, Khoja Iskhak 
Vali, Khoja Doniyal, Sheikh Burkhoniddin Sagarjiy, Khoja Abdu Darun and Khoja Abdu Berun. 
A lot of attention is paid to the issues of the formation of appropriate infrastructure for the 
improvement, restoration and repair of these places. 
At the same time, there are problems that are hindering the development of tourism in 
Uzbekistan. Such problems are caused by the fact that the roads leading to certain places of 
pilgrimage are being repaired. There are problems in the supply of gas and water also. The fact 
that the pilgrims are fully integrated with modern information and communication technologies, 
shortcomings in the provision of electronic systems and interactive services are the most important 
tasks that must be performed. Not only does one part of the pilgrims have their own website page, 
Wi-Fi area and traffic signs leading to the facilities and a video surveillance system, will also be 
necessary to carry out a number of works in this area. In the Republic, there are many orthodox, 
Catholic and protestant churches, temples of Judaism, Buddhism offering opportunities to use 
these temples as objects of pilgrimage tourism.
