4. Metro Taschkent 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.
5. Chorsu Bazaar The oldest Bazaar in Uzbekistan. Charsu Bazaar is the heart of the old city, the real Eastern market of the modern city.
6. Navoi Opera Theater 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.

8. Broadway Alley Sayilgoh - 'Broadway' of Tashkent. Now it is very difficult to imagine that once there was a huge swampy place that was turned by initiative Governor General Von Kaufman into a square for tsarist soldiers and their families, also local residents allowed.
