Abstract
<jats:p>This article examines the historical foundations of cultural relations between Uzbekistan and China, beginning with the period of the Great Silk Road. It analyzes the exchange of trade, science, art, literature and spiritual values between the two peoples. Special attention is paid to the new stage of Uzbek-Chinese relations during the years of independence, including the development of cultural diplomacy, educational cooperation, tourism, art festivals, scientific collaboration and international cultural projects. The article argues that cultural cooperation between the two countries is based not only on a rich historical heritage, but also plays an important role in strengthening intercultural dialogue, mutual trust and strategic partnership in the context of modern globalization.</jats:p>
