Uzbekistan is a country resting in Central Asia. This small nation has great history, culture and art. With Islamic history and the historic Silk Road, this country offers insight and beauty to travellers.

Tashkent mixes of Soviet and modern style architecture. The capital is also known for its many museums. Some of these include the Museum of Applied Arts and the Museum of Nature. Other popular destinations include the Tashkent Botanical Garden and the Chorsu Bazaar.

Khiva is another choice destination for history-lovers and archeologists at heart. This city was established at the beginning of the Christian era. Itchan Kala, the walled inner city, was the first site in Uzbekistan to be named a World Heritage Site. This inner part of Khiva contains over 50 historic monuments alone. These include the Djuma Mosque, first established as far back as the tenth century.

Uzbekistan is a great destination for any traveller looking to learn about interesting traditions.

The Uzbeki visa office will determine the duration of your visa at the time of processing. Overstay penalties result in a $2000 USD fine per week overstayed.

Visit the Canadian Travel and Tourism website for more information on entry and exit requirements.

Although Uzbekistan is dry and arid nation, temperatures can vary.

The countries weather is tied to that specific season. Winters are often cold. Temperatures dip into the teens at night and rarely get to 5 degrees Celsius during the day. But, summers are mild. Temperatures stay in the high-20’s most of the season.

Rainfall is uncommon in most of the country.

Threats of terror can occur in Uzbekistan. Various terrorist groups operate throughout Central Asia. Local authorities are on high alert and aggressive in dealing with these threats. Certain areas may be off limits due to security concerns during your trip. Consider contacting the Canadian Embassy before your trip to see if your itinerary may be affected.

Violent crime has become more common in Uzbekistan in recent years. Travellers should stay in groups and avoid going out at night. Do not openly display cash and avoid flashy clothing.

Pickpockets and petty thieves are in public areas like markets and buses. Take precautions and be aware of your surroundings at all times.

Only use marked taxis and try to avoid taking taxis alone, especially if you are a woman. Taxi-related scams are common in urban areas.

Some of the sightseeing highlights in Uzbekistan are historic mosques and madrasas. Remember these aren’t just tourist destinations. They are places of worship where they pray, or places of great religious significance.

Always behave respectfully. Travellers should dress more conservatively, especially if you are a woman.

These locations may also require you to remove your shoes before entering, as a sign of respect. In some mosques and madrasas, photography may be limited or prohibited altogether.

You may see these cultural sights, but don’t forget to do so with respect, understanding and humility.

Uzbekistan offers much to travellers. Make sure you have everything you’ll need to enjoy your trip.

  • Soum – Outside of major tourist areas and hotels, few locations take credit cards for payment. Make sure you have a few Soum, the local currency, with you at all times.
  • Conservative Clothing – There is no outlined dress code in Uzbekistan. But, the dress across the nation is more conservative. Be sure to bring long sleeves, long pants, high necklines and longer skirts. This is also the expected dress when visiting religious sites.
  • Walking Shoes – Many of the most beautiful sights in Uzbekistan require walking. Whether you are planning to walk the Silk Road or embark on one of the many hiking trails, a comfortable pair of shoes is a must.

Canadian consular services can help travellers with many issues they may face including passport services. Once in Uzbekistan, the information for the Canadian consulate is:

Canadian Embassy Tashkent
58A, Bobur Street,
Yakkasaroy district, Tashkent, 100022, Uzbekistan
