ИСЛАМСКАЯ ЭТНОКУЛЬТУРА В ЛАНДШАФТНЫХ ЭКСПОЗИЦИЯХ БОТАНИЧЕСКИХ САДОВ

Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of the world experience in the construction of ethno-cultural gardens, as well as the role and modern tasks of botanical gardens in this direction. In the last few decades, the appeal to the ethno-cultural visualization of horticultural traditions of different countries and peoples has become especially relevant and in demand. In different countries there are gardens in which the national spiritual and utilitarian culture is deeply reflected and they are world famous. These are usually Japanese, Chinese, French, Italian gardens. To a lesser extent, the gardens of Iran, India, and Pakistan are popular and well-known, reflecting the Islamic Garden culture, the origins of which are guessed in Persian Zoroastrianism. Expositions demonstrating the Islamic horticultural tradition are represented in very small numbers in botanical gardens, for example, in Germany or in the USA. In Russia, in the Nikitsky Botanical Garden – the National Scientific Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences, a small exhibition project has been developed under the working title "Selsebil Garden". Its relevance is confirmed by the presence of carriers of Islamic culture in the Crimea, where it is represented mainly in architecture.
