Things to Do in Tashkent: Local Guide
Uzbekistan's capital is the largest city in Central Asia and a living museum of Soviet modernism layered over Islamic heritage. The Chorsu Bazaar, Khast Imom religious complex, and the surprisingly excellent subway stations with their mosaic tile grandeur make Tashkent a more rewarding city than its transit reputation suggests.
