Over the past twenty years, the concept of cultural heritage in Uzbekistan has been constantly expanding. The question quickly expanded to include building groups, historical architecture and heritage. Today, the anthropological approach to heritage forces us to view it as a social totality of many different, complex and interdependent manifestations. This now reflects the diversity of cultural expressions. Searching for the "message" of cultural property has become more important. This requires us to define ethical values, social customs, beliefs or myths, the sign and expression of which is intangible heritage. The meaning of architectural or urban structures and the transformation of natural landscapes through human intervention are increasingly linked to issues of identity. It is on the basis of these reflections that a more comprehensive approach has been developed over the past decade to better appreciate the intangible heritage as a source of cultural identity, creativity and diversity.
