Tashkent
 

Not holding my breath on this one, but any advice re how many days to spend in Tashkent? How much is there to see, museums etc. And any other comments welcome too. Thanks.

Also interested....

HaHa. Got quite excited then as thought someone could make helpful suggestions!
Have got my LP Central Asia but hoping for a bit of insider knowledge or past experience.

Thursday, have a look on Thorn Tree. Some useful comments.

Will do. I have the LP on my iPad, but hate reading it that way.

BTW - I remember this as being interesting:

That TR here is great! I hadn't seen it. Have noted the B&B they stayed in Tashkent... sounds a possible for my extra days. It all sounds much more Soviet than I expected. Will have to remember to carry my passport about and be careful of money exchange forms. Quite takes me back to the old days in Russia in the 70s.
