The tour starts at your hotel. While we move to our first sight, you will hear general information about the city, learn how it became the capital. In the northern part of Tashkent we visit a memorial complex built in the Islamic architectural style, where we will see blue domes, Khiva ornaments and carved glazed terracotta. You will also admire the Tashkent TV tower - the highest in Central Asia.
Not far from the tower, a flame burns under the cauldrons of the Pilaf Centre. Having visited it, you will see how pilaf is cooked in giant cauldrons, which in a few hours will be eaten by thousands of guests and residents of the capital.
We will look into the white marble Minor Mosque, you will learn about the Tashkent earthquake at the Courage monument, and then, after passing the Ankhor Canal, we will go to the Old City.

• Lunch time - we will taste pilaf or other dishes of Uzbek cuisine.

-Then we will visit the Chorsu Bazaar. Tashkent people love to bargain: bargaining, they get pleasure, defending a price that seems fair to them. In this bazaar, you can buy almost everything - if only you could find the strength to go through it. Our guide will show you where you can buy inexpensively a lot of good souvenirs, dried fruits and spices.

• Saying goodbye to the bazaar, we will go to the central districts of the city, drive near the Friendship of Peoples Square and visit modern Tashkent City.

-After Tashkent became one of the major cities of the Russian Empire in 1865, the appearance of its narrow streets and the layout of the quarters did not please the new authorities. It was decided to build a new city. On the left bank of Ankhor, following the latest architectural fashion, a new city was built, with a radial-ring system of roads, with squares, churches, gymnasiums and theatres. Many of those buildings have been preserved, we will see it.

-In the new part of the city, we will stop at the Opera and Ballet Theatre, and then we will walk along the “Broadway” to the Amir Timur Square.

• A visit to several stations of the Tashkent metro will decorate our tour - this will be an excellent end to it.

During the years of independence, Tashkent has become even more beautiful! Its importance as a major political, economic, cultural centre of Central Asia is growing from year to year. Tashkent is always hospitable, always full of warmth - you yourself will see and love it!
