The visitors are reported to have highly assessed the locally accomplished work on construction and betterment, UzA reported.

The delegation has also observed the unique manuscript Koran, mostly known as the Usman Koran in the Muslim world.

The profound work now accomplished in Uzbekistan to revive, restore and preserve the ancient monuments is worth recognition.
