The symbol of the independence of our country – the state emblem of our state is appreciated by all people. In it, everyone sees the true image of our native Uzbekistan: mountains, rivers and, wrapped in a wreath of wheat ears, and on the right side, golden rays of the sun illuminate a blossoming valley surrounded by open branches of cotton. This is a testament to the charm of our unique land.
At the top of the state emblem is an octagon as a symbol of the freedom of the republic, and inside – a crescent and a star. In the center of the symbol is the Humo bird, a symbol of happiness and freedom – with outstretched wings. At the bottom of the state emblem, on a ribbon depicting the state flag of the Republic of Uzbekistan, the word “Uzbekistan” is inscribed.
