This article examines the formation and development of the image of Bukhara in the works of Uzbek poets. Throughout different historical periods, Bukhara has evolved from a concrete geographical and cultural center into a powerful poetic symbol representing spiritual heritage, historical continuity, and national identity. By tracing the transformation of this image in classical and modern Uzbek poetry, the study reveals how poets have reinterpreted Bukhara in accordance with changing social, cultural, and philosophical contexts. The analysis demonstrates that the image of Bukhara remains a dynamic and meaningful artistic construct that reflects both collective memory and individual poetic consciousness.
