Returning to the topic of inclusion of the Turkmen embroidery in the UNESCO List of the Intangible Heritage of Humanity, it should be pointed out that without doubt it is an inseparable part of the treasure of national cultural values. Following age-old traditions, today our masters create wonderful original designs and ornaments serving elements of clothing, household items, and decorative articles. This poplar form of applied art is one of the unique visiting cards of Turkmenistan. By the way, Turkmen women, who are keepers and successors of creative traditions of our glorious ancestors, were famous for their fine needlework. Having reached a high perfection in this form of art, they were always ready to share their rich experience with others.
At the end of the meeting, the guests expressed their gratitude to our President wished success in all their undertakings in the preservation and development of our cultural heritage, art, and traditions.
