Bolshoi theatre of Opera and Ballet - the first Opera and ballet theater in Central Asia and now one of the visit cards of modern Tashkent. One of the best examples of the combination of folk art with Neoclassicism
The Independence Square (Mustaqilliq Maidoni) is the main square of the country with the administrative offices of the Cabinet and the Senate. Now this place is a symbol of independence of Uzbekistan but once was the administrative center of the russian tsarist and communist regimes.
The first metro in Central Asia and one of the most beautiful sights in Asia. No wonder it is called the underground Museum of Tashkent because none of the stations repeat the decor of the other, each station has a different shape and individual approach.
The oldest Bazaar in Uzbekistan. Charsu Bazaar is the heart of the old city, the real Eastern market of the modern city.

About Tashkent
Tashkent is the capital of Uzbekistan, an ancient Silk Road city of wide Soviet-era avenues, decorated metro stations, old madrasas and big bazaars.
Tashkent has been a trading city on the Silk Road for over two thousand years, but a major earthquake in 1966 destroyed much of it, and the modern capital was rebuilt with broad avenues, big squares and Soviet-era buildings. The old city, Eski Shahar, survives in pockets, with narrow lanes and mud-brick houses. The Khast Imam complex has madrasas and mosques, and its library holds the Uthman Quran, one of the oldest copies of the Quran.
Top-ranked sights in Tashkent: Uzbekistan State Museum of Applied Art, Broadway Alley.
