Do you know what that is?
You will be surprised. It's a dump!
Most of them are in Tashkent. In the house there live people, sometimes families - they are service personnel.
Often it is visitors from distant areas. They keep this place clean and sort the trash.
Probably, that is why Tashkent dumps do not have a typical for such places smell.
Non-standard solution, I have never encountered it.
But, why not?
Many people are interested - does it make sense to rent a car in Uzbekistan?
So I'll tell you.
A taxi in Tashkent costs an average of 10 thousand so'm, a little more than $1.
From Bukhara to Samarkand I drove for $100.
This is with all the stops, with an overnight stay on the border with Kazakhstan in a Yurt.
Now look how much it costs to rent a car ($50-100 per day).
In my opinion, the conclusion is obvious.
Moreover, a taxi here is any car that has stopped.
In most cases - white!
Uzbekistan-the country of the sun, and white, of course, is the most popular colour among car owners.
There are several bazaars in the city.
Alai - in the center.
Knowledgeable people are not advice do anything on it to buy.
After the reconstruction, it became, of course, beautiful, but terribly expensive.
If the word "hippodrome" flashes in a conversation with locals, you know, you do not necessarily have to deal with a horse lover.
He's probably talking about shopping.
The fact that for many years the largest clothing market in Tashkent is located on the outskirts of the city in close proximity to the racetrack - so the people and nicknamed it after that.
You can buy almost anything here.
Sellers do not like when they are filmed, so there are not many footage.
Here are - wedding dresses.
At the Hippodrome managed to try an unusual dish - pigodi.
It's a Korean steamed pastry with cabbage and meat inside.
Be sure to pour the sauce - an unusual taste.
The dish is quite decent and hearty.
- It can be opened? Do you put something inside?
- Yes, we do.
- Inside we put soy, it's bitter.
There are a lot of Koreans in Uzbekistan.
In Tashkent are some areas where they mainly live.
And Korean cuisine for Tashkent have become familiar.
We went to a restaurant in the city center, where you can taste them.
I got myself a kuksi - a cold soup with noodles and meat.
Incredibly tasty, especially in the heat.
And this is hot boiling soup.
In addition, they gave a bunch of salads.
To eat them strength was gone.
We took with us and tried later - also very tasty.
The bill in the Korean cafe made 72 thousand soums ($9).
But back to the bazaars.
Fans of flea markets should definitely visit "The Yangiabad Bazaar".
He works the weekends.
This seems to show products of Soviet times under on open air.
Here you can find anything, for example, you can buy money: Soviet, Royal, Uzbek.
Flags, pennants, some strange mechanisms, billiard balls.
They say that here the car owners buy spare parts for their rare "Lada", "Muscovites" and "Volga".
Another thing is the bird market, in addition to poultry and pets-kittens, puppies and rabbits, you can buy hedgehogs or turtles.
By the way, the turtles can not be exported from the country.
This" hustle " is constantly wanted to be closed.
Please don't do this!
The flea markets exist in many cities around the world, and the authorities don't consider them bad.
For example, I love to wander through such markets and buy something unusual.
It may, perhaps, someone should revitalize this area?
OMG. Thank you for the virtual tour. More virtual adventures please.
