Discover Tashkent: A Journey Through Culture, History & Modern Charm
Embark on a journey through the heart of Tashkent, starting at the Khast Imam Complex, the spiritual and historical center of the city. This sacred site houses the Barakhan Madrasah, Tilla Sheikh Mosque, and the Muyi Muborak Library, where you can see the world-famous Osman Quran, one of the oldest Qurans in existence. The architecture here beautifully reflects the elegance of Islamic design, with intricate tilework and peaceful courtyards.
Next, we take a stroll through Sailgokh Street, also known as "Broadway," where you can experience the lively energy of Tashkent with street artists, souvenir stalls, and local musicians. Along the way, we pass Independence Square, a symbol of Uzbekistan’s freedom, and admire the Soviet-era monuments that blend with the city’s modern transformation. Our journey continues towards Chorsu Bazaar, Tashkent’s most famous and oldest market. The massive blue-domed bazaar is a sensory delight, offering a wide array of spices, dried fruits, nuts, and fresh produce. Here, you’ll witness local life in action as vendors call out their best deals, bakers prepare traditional Uzbek non (bread), and butchers display fresh cuts of meat. You’ll also have the chance to taste plov, the national dish, or sip on fresh kumis (fermented mare’s milk) for a unique local experience.
This tour is a perfect blend of history, culture, and local life, providing an authentic glimpse into the soul of Tashkent.
