Tashkent - Uzbekistan 2011

History lessons come alive .. Tashkent to me conjures up the city where our prime minister Lal Bahadur Shastri died under mysterious circumstances on 11th. January 1966 one day after the peace treaty was signed by India and Pakistan. What i found in post Russian Tashkent is a clean pretty city , with overbearing and sometimes much too grandeous architecture and monuments , what touched my heart completely are the warm and friendly people of Uzbekistan , the food , their markets , their culture which has survived despite dry , cold , successive and supressive regimes - even to date.
