Introduction
Our state has always been the center of intersection of many cultures and
civilizations, where various religions were promoted, which is why extremely
unique monuments belonging to the religions of Islam, Buddhism and Christianity
are preserved in our country. In this regard, measures have been implemented to
form the flow of domestic and foreign pilgrims and tourists and create the
necessary conditions for them, to widely promote the tourism potential of the
Republic.
MAIN PART
Pilgrimage tourism has gone through a lot of periods in its field and has
become one of the most profitable areas of Tourism today. The word pilgrimage,
translated from Arabic, means a journey, a journey. In the language of Turkic
peoples, it represents visiting local shrines for a religious purpose. Translated from
Latin palmarius, palmovnik is a palm (tree of victory) derived from the word for
carrying the palm variety.
Theoretical issues of religious and pilgrimage tourism, its development and
territorial peculiarities have been studied by many economists, geographers and
historical scholars. Including from foreign scientists in this matter K.Griffin,
G.Wilkinson, D.H.Olsen, N.Neilson, R.Raj, S.Singh, S.Nolan, W.Wang, K.Huang,
J.S.Chen, H.Okhovat, L.E.Hudman, M.L.Nolan, R.Eid, R.H.Research by scholars
such as Jackson has explored issues of pilgrimage tourism.
Nowadays, in Uzbekistan, the emphasis on historical and cultural objects,
sacred steps has increased, and special attention has begun to be paid to the
development of pilgrimage tourism. There are a total of 8,210 cultural heritage
sites in our republic as of 1 January 2023, of which 7,827 are publicly owned and
383 are privately owned.

Currently, there are more than 10 major centers of pilgrimage tourism in the
world, among which the presence of Central Asian countries with high Islamic
values, opportunities for the development of this network in our country
indicates the size.
On the basis of pilgrimage tourism and views on shrines, holy steps and
shrines are mainly divided into three types.
These are:
- Shrines of international importance;
- Shrines of Republican significance;
- Shrines of local importance
Our country is characterized by a wealth of tourist resources. In Central
Asia, in particular in our homeland, great saints, scientists, living and buried steps,
pilgrimage sites, as well as many tourists are attracted. The burial sites and graves
of many saints are being reconstructed and restored to their original state. From our
geniuses known all over the world, many dear saints like Imam al-Bukhari,
Gijdivani, Bahawiddin Naqshbandi, Imam al-Moturidi, Mahmudi a'zam, Zangiota,
Sheikh Hovand Tohur, the mausoleums of imams are being transformed into
places where Muslim people can visit and eat spiritually. The transformation of the
Imam Al-Bukhari complex into an important shrine is of international importance,
and in the Muslim world the shrine is an important and significant pilgrimage site.
Imam al-Bukhari, one of the famous allomas of the Muslim world, was born
in Bukhara on July 21, 810, died in 870 in the village of Khartang, 25 km from
Samarkand (now Chelak District of Samarkand province), and was buried there.
However, this place remained unattended for centuries, but after the independence
of our state, reconstruction of the complex was carried out. On April 29, 1997, the
government of the Republic of Uzbekistan decided to celebrate the 1225th
anniversary of the birth of Imam al-Bukhari according to the Hijri lunar calendar.
Visiting tourism facilities:
On the territory of Uzbekistan, like other religions, there are many sacred
places of Islamic culture and its Sufi flow. The most valuable monuments are

recognized as UNESCO World Heritage sites. Among them, the city of Bukhara,
called Bukharoyi-Sharif, which means blessed Bukhara in the Islamic world, the
city of Samarkand with many priceless monuments, the city of Shahrisabz, which
is considered the homeland of Amir Temur, whose cities have an ancient and rich
history and have undergone significant changes throughout their lives. Currently,
there are more than 10 holy and venerated Christian and Muslim places, shrines in
Uzbekistan.
According to research, shrines were classified according to their socio-
spiritual significance into the following 4 species:
1. Shrines of saints and scribes calling on people to be brought up in the
spirit of patriotism, valor, courage. That is, visitors to such shrines strive to
emdiv in themselves the feelings of courage and courage and such qualities of the
scribes. (e.g. Najmiddin Kubro, Amir Temur, Pahlavon Makhmud, Mirzo
Ulughbek, Mukhammad Rakhim Khan Feruz etc.;
2. Shrines of Ulama that serve to ensure the feelings of justice, happiness,
hard work, kindness in people. People who visit such shrines strive to emdiv in
themselves such noble feelings as Sahawat, mehr murwat, hard work in our past
ancestors (for example, Bakhovuddin Naqshband, Qaffol Shoshiy, Khoja Akhrori
Wali, Khoja Mukhammad Porso, Ahmad Yugnaki, etc.;
3. Shrines of saints who call people to religious faith, religious morality and
devotion, fidelity to spirituality and enlightenment (Imam al-Bukhari, Imam al-
Moturidi, Sheikh Hovandi Toxur, Ahmad Yassawi, Imam at-Termiziy, Hakim at-
Termiziy, Abul Muin an-Nasafi, Hazrati Imam (Hasti Imam), Zangi Ota,
Makhdumi a'zam, etc.;
4. Shrines of saints who call people to science and enlightenment. That is, in
the elevation of such virtuous Saints to the rank of Saint, striving for science,
tireless work lies, therefore, in pilgrims, striving for knowledge, attitude to work,
respect for science and enlightenment are formed. (Abu Ali Ibn Sina,
Burkhoniddin al-Marginani, Abu Bakr al-Khwarazmi, Musa al-Khwarazmi,
Ahmad al-Farghani, etc.

Uzbekistan is directly related to the way and life of the population is caused by
many factors. Especially in recent times, the increase in the influx of domestic and
foreign tourists is associated with shambarshas with religious and pilgrimage
tourism. The main factor in pilgrimage tourism depends on historical and modern
monuments in the Republic. It is necessary to carry out restoration work with this
