Tashkent is the capital of the Republic Uzbekistan, located at the foothills of TIanshan Mountains. Already in the times of the Big Silkroad Tashkent was a center of trade and cultural exchange. In a way you can say, that Tashkent is located at the old border between an area of nomadic people and settled urban population.
It is a pity, that Tashkent always looks a bit underrated compared with the famous cities of Samarkand and Bukhara. |

Another excellent page from Uzbekistan. I agree with you that Tashkent is under-rated - we enjoyed our time there very much. It looks as though there is quite a lot of change in progress - it wil be interesting to go back. leyle | Kuznetsov_Sergey Sun Oct 7, 2007 08:16 UTC
