The Fergana Valley, encompassing the regions of Andijan, Fergana, and Namangan, represents one of the most culturally and historically rich areas in Uzbekistan. This article explores the potential for advancing tourism, guiding, translation, and hospitality services in the valley by strengthening foreign language education and professional training. In light of globalization and the growing demand for high-quality tourism experiences, the integration of modern language instruction methods and international collaboration is essential. The study highlights key challenges such as the shortage of qualified multilingual professionals, outdated training practices, and insufficient infrastructure. By examining both local needs and international best practices, this research outlines a strategic framework for sustainable tourism development in the Fergana Valle.
