Hotels in Tashkent

Venture beneath the ornate metro stations, each an underground art museum showcasing Uzbek culture without a single admission fee. At Chorsu Bazaar, the sensory feast of spices and textiles tells more about local life than any guidebook. The earthquake-rebuilt city blends Soviet architecture with Islamic influences, particularly visible at the blue-domed Hazrat Imam complex. Magic City Park offers respite from urban exploration, while the Amir Timur Museum chronicles the complex history of Central Asia's most famous conqueror. For evening entertainment, catch a performance at the Alisher Navoiy Theater, where tickets cost a fraction of what you'd pay in Western capitals.
