Abstract

The digital transformation of cultural heritage preservation and presentation has become a critical factor in contemporary tourism development and historical scholarship. However, in Central Asia, particularly in Uzbekistan, the digitization of historical heritage reveals significant temporal and thematic imbalances that affect both academic research and tourism potential. While certain historical periods receive substantial digital attention, others remain virtually invisible in the digital landscape, creating opportunities for more comprehensive historical narratives that could enhance public understanding of the region's past.
