Tashkent Metro

Opened in 1977, Tashkent Metro is Central Asia’s oldest subway and a showcase of Soviet-era design blended with modern upgrades. Stations double as art galleries, featuring marble halls, mosaics, and local motifs, while recent lines add sleek, contemporary architecture. It’s clean, safe, and affordable, with clear signage and frequent trains connecting major sights and markets. Photography is now permitted, making station-hopping a rewarding cultural stop between attractions. Visit for efficient transport and a curated look at Uzbekistan’s design heritage underground.
