Tashkent region

Oasis in the Tien Shan foothills

About the region

The history of the Tashkent oasis goes back to ancient times. Traces of Stone age settlements, remains of Bronze age settlements, rock carvings, numerous mounds and ruins of ancient fortresses have been found here.

However, this region attracts not only for its ancient history, but also for its rich nature in the foothills. Here you can sunbathe on the bank of the Charvak reservoir, which has everything you need for a good rest, go on an adventure tour of the Ugam-Chatkal nature park, where you can discover mysterious gorges, mountain waterfalls and high-altitude crystal lakes, as well as go rafting on the fast – flowing rivers of the region -Ugam, Chatkal and Pskem.

In the winter period in the area you can relax on one of the ski resorts – Amirsoy, Chimgan, Beldersay or Yangiabad. The peak of ski tourism is from November to March. The relatively mild climate, almost complete absence of wind, a large selection of trails for skiing and downhill will create excellent conditions for skiing.
