  Chirchik River
by johnsakura
 
 

Chirchik River comes all the way down the Chirchik Valley passing the Charvak Water Reservoir until reaches Tashkent and keeps down southeast.
Irrigation canals on the Chirchik River supply power for several hydroelectric plants.
A big part of the scenery of the Valley is full of power plants and chemical facilities which give a porr image to this amazing site just a couple of hours from the capital. Right now, almost all the factories are closed to danger is no longer there and you can take bath but just aside a big factory or something. The water from the river runs from the mountains and its colour can tell its from pure spring.

Review Helpfulness: 4.5 out of 5 stars
