In the "Pre-Islamic period": along the Amudarya, amidst cotton fields, one can enjoy horseback riding on heavenly horses



The design and overall appearance of the "Pre-Islamic Period" section were discussed at the Center of Islamic Civilization in Uzbekistan. At the beginning of the meeting, the team from "Outdoor Factory," led by Sinan Turaman, presented the project for this section. The head of the Center, Firdavs Abdukhalikov, and the director of the State Museum of History of Uzbekistan, Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor Zhannat Ismailov, shared additional proposals for improving the section.

 

 

 

— One of Turkey's leading companies, "Outdoor Factory," has paid special attention to chronological and urban planning issues and is gradually creating a large scientific space within a small area. Through this section, we can correctly assess our past and showcase our achievements, which will become our pride. The company's representatives have carefully studied this period. If we apply our proposals in scientific and creative activities, it will make the project even more perfect, — noted the head of the Center.

 

As announced during the meeting, the "Pre-Islamic Period" section will showcase the ancient Amudarya River in its natural state. It will feature boats, water waves, providing visitors with an opportunity to feel the grandeur of the river. The section will also depict agriculture along the Silk Road, cotton fields, mulberry plantations, silk production technologies, and clothing sewing tools. Additionally, urban planning elements of Uzundara and water structures of Kharezm will be interactively displayed. Models of the heavenly horses of Ferghana in 3D format will add a special atmosphere to the exhibition.

 

 

 

— During the research process, we encountered many interesting facts that truly amazed us. If we demonstrate the results of our findings in this section, every visitor will be able to feel the amazement that we want to convey. The first civilizational processes in Uzundara, the inventions of ancient Sogdiana and Bactria, personally amazed me. After studying the history of Ferghana’s heavenly horses, sericulture, and cotton cultivation, I am convinced that the history of Uzbekistan is great and unique. We plan to reflect this in the exhibition, — said the head of "Outdoor Factory."

 

At the end of the meeting, it was decided to make additional clarifications to the project and begin practical work in consultation with local scholars.
