What This Tour Is

A full-day journey into the Bostanlyk district, the wild and beautiful corner of the Tashkent region where the Tian Shan mountains begin. This tour connects ancient history, dramatic nature, and genuine Uzbek culture in a way that no city tour can match.

The Route

  1. Chakh Cham Village: Private Museum & Mountain Herbs

    A museum built by a local enthusiast out of love for the region. A herbalist shows you mountain plants used in folk medicine and lets you taste herbal teas.

  2. Chinorkent Cable Car

    An ascent with panoramic views over the Bostanlyk valley and mountain ridges — one of the best bird's-eye views in the Tashkent region.

  3. Lunch at Sazanchik Teahouse

    A traditional teahouse on the edge of the Charvak Reservoir. Lunch in a yurt or open pavilion with views over the water. (Lunch is paid separately.)

  4. Mesolithic Petroglyphs & Ancient Plane Trees

    Rock carvings over 8,000 years old depicting hunting scenes, rituals and daily life — among plane trees that have stood here for up to 850 years.

  5. Charvak Reservoir Viewpoint

    One of the best viewpoints over one of the largest artificial lakes in Uzbekistan. Outstanding for photography.

  6. Ali Baba Grotto & Guri Mug Cemetery

    A natural grotto tied to local Ali Baba legends, beside a Zoroastrian burial ground that predates Islam in the region.

  7. Pskem River Viewpoint & Nanay Village

    A glacial torrent of turquoise and white — a classic mountain landscape and a moment of calm.

  8. Nanay Waterfalls

    The stop guests remember most: a waterfall in a lush gorge, reached by a short walk or a ride in a Soviet-era UAZ jeep. Swim in summer.
