The Seoul Metropolitan Government has decided to build a park in Uzbekistan’s capital of Tashkent by 2012.

Tashkent will provide the plot of land and Seoul will cover the costs associated with creating "Seoul Park."

Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon and Tashkent Mayor Abdukahhar Tukhtayev are expected to exchange a letter of intent on the creation of the park in Seoul on Thursday.

The Seoul Metropolitan Government adopted a friendship accord with Tashkent in 2006. Since then, the two sides have been conducting a variety of civil exchanges.

Currently, some 80-thousand ethnics Koreans are estimated to be residing in Tashkent.
