Tashkent is the capital and largest city of Uzbekistan, a vibrant metropolis where antiquity harmoniously coexists with modernity. Its history spans over two thousand years: at the crossroads of the Great Silk Road trade routes, a culture was formed here that embraced Eastern hospitality, handicraft traditions, and architectural splendor.

Today's Tashkent is a green, spacious, and remarkably clean city. Mosques and madrassas of the old city stand side by side with modern business centers, cozy teahouses with trendy restaurants and parks. Tourists enjoy visiting the Khast-Imam complex, home to the legendary Osman Koran, ancient bazaars, museums, and theaters, as well as the Tashkent metro stations, recognized as some of the most beautiful in the world.

Tashkent is not only the administrative and cultural heart of the country but also the starting point for travel throughout Uzbekistan. It offers convenient access to Samarkand, Bukhara, and Khiva, and the hospitality of the Tashkent people makes a stay here especially pleasant.

Our April trip to Bukhara was the highlight of our Silk Road tour. We found the local tips on GoUzbekistan very helpful, especially about the weather and what to wear. The recommendation to visit the Ark Fortress at sunset was spot on – the photos are incredible! The website made it so easy to understand the local culture and find the best hidden gems. Highly recommend using this guide for anyone visiting Uzbekistan in 2026!

Saytdagi Buxoro va Samarqand haqidagi maqolalar juda foydali bo'ldi. O'zimizga mos yangi joylarni kashf qildik. Ayniqsa, milliy taomlar va hunarmandchilik ustaxonalari haqidagi tavsiyalar uchun rahmat. GoUzbekistan portali orqali sayohatimiz ancha tartibli va mazmunli o'tdi. Chet ellik mehmonlarimizga ham aynan shu saytni tavsiya qildik!

Приехали в Узбекистан в начале апреля и влюбились в Бухару! Читали статью на GoUzbekistan про весенние поездки и решили остановиться в старом городе отель Денди плаза. Совет про вечерний Ляби-Хауз оказался бесценным — атмосфера там просто магическая. Очень помогла информация про поезд Афросиаб, билеты брали заранее, как и советовали на сайте. Узбекистан, мы вернемся!
