More than 40 crafts are developed in Khorezm, and tourists are also interested in the process of manufacturing products. In this regard, a Crafts Center will be created on 6 hectares of land in the Mevaston mahalla, and 1 billion soums will be allocated annually for the training of apprentices.
This was announced at a meeting chaired by President Shavkat Mirziyoyev, dedicated to priority tasks for the socio-economic development of the Khorezm region.
At the meeting, it was also noted that many cultural monuments in Khorezm have not yet been studied, there is insufficient information about such historical sites as "Sulaymon Kala" in Khazarasp, "Kalajik Kala" in Bagat, "Khan's Garden," "Apple Thrown Fortress" in Yangiaryk.
Responsible officials were instructed to begin practical work on identifying and restoring historical monuments with the involvement of experienced archaeologists from abroad.
A four-day "Fortress Tour" route will be developed, connecting 8 ancient fortresses in the territory of Khorezm and Karakalpakstan. Service facilities will be launched around these fortresses based on a master plan.
