The architectural heritage of Uzbekistan represents an important part of the cultural history of Central Asia. Among the religious monuments of the country, Langar Ota Mosque occupies a special place due to its historical background, architectural structure, and spiritual significance. Located in southern Uzbekistan, this mosque reflects the harmony between Islamic architectural traditions and local construction practices. This article examines the architectural features and cultural value of Langar Ota Mosque within the context of Uzbekistan’s historical heritage. The research is based on historical, comparative, and descriptive methods to study the mosque’s design, artistic characteristics, and role in preserving national identity. The study also highlights the importance of protecting historical monuments and their contribution to cultural tourism. The results show that Langar Ota Mosque is not only a religious building but also an important symbol of traditional craftsmanship and cultural memory in Uzbekistan.
