We are visiting Tashkent and want to see Pakhtakor vs Bunyodkar! I am seeing some conflicting information online so asking my questions here, thanks in advance :)

Is the game on Friday October 9th at 7:00pm local at Pakhtakor Stadium?

How can we get tickets? Is it possible to do it online because I don’t currently see it on iticket.uz

Any other tips (best place to sit, what colors to wear or not wear, where to explore or buy a jersey before kickoff, etc)?

Thanks!

Hello all, I have the e-tickets for the train from Tashkent to Samarkand. Do I just show that when I am about to board the train? Is there any other procedure?

Once upon a time, in a distant land where the wetlands of the north, the arid deserts of the south, the blue oceans of the west, and the snow-capped mountains of the east all met, there lived an Uzbek girl.

One fateful day, the only prince of the Heavenly Kingdom approached her and asked:

“Would you fancy being my girlfriend?”

The girl smiled and replied:

“Yes, I would like to be your girlfriend.”

The moment the words left her mouth, a griffin appeared out of thin air.

It swooped down, snatched her off the ground, tore her cleanly in two, ate her, and then proceeded to take a truly ginormous shit in the King’s 9/11 toilet.

No one knew why.

No one dared to ask.

And so, from that day onward, Uzbek girls, terrified that the griffin might return, began answering the prince’s question with considerably more caution:

“Friend, yes. Girlfriend, no.”

Hello

I will go to Uzbekistan in vacation end of december early January, basically 28th December to 4th January.

My plan for the moment is this:

28th Dec - Land in Tashkent early morning, day in Tashkent

29th Dec - Visit Tashkent

30th Dec - Train to Samarkand

31st Dec - Visit Samarkand

1st Jan - Visit Samarkand

2nd Jan - Train to Tashkent

3rd Jan - Visit Tashkent again :)

4th Jan - Fly out

I skip Bukhara because I think it will be too rushed, flights are already booked and I fly in and out from TAS.

My question is : how is New Year in Samarkand ? Will the city be completely closed and I will find no restaurants the 31st December and 1st January ? Will there be a few things open ? Or is it business as usual ?

Also can I expect some celebrations on Registan the 31st ?

Thank you :)

Hi, I am 22 years old girl and planning to do masters degree next year and looking fo a friend to study together. I am doing international economic or any field close to that. It is hard to find someone with same interest offline. So maybe we could apply to universities together and go to study somewhere. We don't have to study same field i just don't wanna be alone i guess 😭🤣

Hi,

I'm travelling with three kids (the youngest being 2) and all are worried they'd fall out while sleeping in a train. They move a lot when they sleep and there doesn't even seem to be a metal guardrail.

What do people do in Uzbekistan?

I’m Chinese Canadian and I’ve been hearing very mixed opinions about the country. My white friends say it’s very safe and an awesome place. My Chinese friends and family say it’s terrible and scam/crime groups specifically target Chinese tourists because they know China doesn’t care enough to take action if anything happens to its citizens who’re travelling abroad.

What would the locals say? I’m planning on visiting Tashkent for a week or so.

Edit: thanks guys, can’t wait to visit!

Hello, we will be taking the train from Tashkent to Samarkand tomorrow morning at 8:30 AM. How much earlier should we arrive at the train station to make sure everything goes smoothly?

Hey,

as I didn't book early enough, I purchased tickets for a Platzkart seat at 6:30 pm in Khiva, but later will swap to a Coupe in Bukhara on my way to Tashkent.

What's the best way to do that?

Do I need to show both tickets in advance? Do I need to get out in Bukhara to scan my ticket, or can I maybe just go to my seat without scanning in on the last part of the journey?

Thanks

Have yall noticed how our passports looks like? The gov constantly talks about moving away from the soviet past but our international passport is a blatant clone of russia booklet

A passport isn't just paper it's a country literature and its visual presentation to the world Instead of creating a unique national identity the gov just settled for a generic lazy burgundy and post soviet/russian looking passport

Hi! We’re two Korean travelers looking for a Korean-speaking guide for a full day in Bukhara tomorrow, October 5. If you’re available or know someone reliable, please DM me with rates and details. Thanks!

Two Weeks in Uzbekistan – Feedback on My Itinerary and Recommendations for Local Providers?
Hello everyone,
I’m traveling to Uzbekistan at the end of October for about two weeks as a solo female traveler. I’ve been working on my itinerary and would really appreciate your experiences and advice.
My current plan is:
Tashkent to arrive and explore the city
Flight to Nukus, followed by a two-day tour of the Aral Sea with one overnight stay
On to Khiva, where I plan to spend about two days
Train to Bukhara, for approximately three days
Then Samarkand, for two to three days
Back to Tashkent for my return flight
I’d like to see as much as possible while still traveling independently. For accommodation, I prefer smaller, good local hotels with private bathrooms. For individual excursions, I’m open to hiring private guides or drivers.
What do you think of this itinerary? Is there anything you would change or definitely add, especially considering the time of year?
I’m planning to spend around €2,000 plus a reserve for my time in Uzbekistan, excluding international flights. Based on your experience, is that realistic for this style of travel? I’d also appreciate some guidance on fair prices, particularly for the Aral Sea tour and transfers.
I’d like to book hotels and excursions directly with local providers so that not too much money goes to platforms such as Booking.com or GetYourGuide. Do you have any recommendations for hotels, guides, or tour operators that I could contact directly?
I booked my domestic flight from Tashkent to Nukus with Centrum Air. Has anyone flown with them and can comment on their reliability?
Personal experiences are also very welcome. Thank you in advance for your tips!

It's my birthday soon 9th October, i want some two cakes one for my uni and one for my friend. Suggest me some good price cake shop, i don't need designed cake littelry sponge and cream will be sufficient.

I got stopped by a middle aged lady at metro because of my sweatshirt. It had crosses ✝️ on it and she said it's bad and disrespectful. FYI, I don't believe in any religion but because I look uzbek, she thought I'm Muslim. Even my own colleagues asked why am I wearing that sweatshirt. Because I speak uzbek, and look uzbek doesn't mean I'm Muslim. And to add, they all turn religious out of nowhere when someone is doing worse than them and judge immediately. Did you guys had similar experiences before?

Hi everyone!
I’m planning an 8-day family trip to Uzbekistan in November and would love some advice from people who have travelled there around this time.

We’re considering Tashkent, Samarkand, Bukhara and possibly Khiva, but we don’t want to make the trip too rushed.

A few things I’d love some honest opinions on:
What is the weather actually like in early/mid-November? Is it uncomfortably cold? Especially for ppl who aren’t used to cold weather?

How much layering/winter clothing would we realistically need?

Which cities are must-visits if we only have 8 days?

Would you recommend Khiva in November, or is it too much travel for the time available?

What’s the best way to travel between Tashkent → Samarkand → Bukhara → Khiva? Are the trains convenient in November, and are there any routes where flying makes more sense?

Are there any specific experiences or places we shouldn’t miss?

Anything you wish you had known before visiting Uzbekistan in November?

We’re looking for a trip that’s comfortable and not overly rushed, rather than trying to tick every city off the list.
Would really appreciate honest advice
