Welcome to another exciting walking tour on the Matilda Tour channel! In this video, we take you through one of Asia’s largest and most vibrant covered bazaars—Chorsu Bazaar, located in the heart of Tashkent, Uzbekistan. Join us as we explore the sights, sounds, and flavors of this bustling market, steeped in history and cultural significance.

The Heart of Tashkent’s History

Situated in the old part of Tashkent, Chorsu Bazaar is more than just a marketplace; it is a living museum of Uzbekistan’s rich heritage. The bazaar dates back over 2,000 years and has been a vital trading hub on the historic Silk Road. The name “Chorsu” translates to “four directions,” symbolizing the crossroads of cultures, merchants, and travelers. Its iconic turquoise dome, built during the Soviet era, shelters rows of stalls filled with local delights.

The surrounding area, with its charming narrow streets and ancient architecture, reflects the deep-rooted traditions of the Uzbek people.

A Foodie’s Paradise

Chorsu Bazaar is a haven for food lovers, offering an incredible variety of local delicacies. The market is divided into sections, each dedicated to specific goods. Stroll through the bazaar to find:
• Fresh and Exotic Meats: Sample or purchase locally sourced meats, including beef, lamb, and the famous horse meat, a staple in Uzbek cuisine.
• Dairy Delights: Taste fresh cheese, yogurt, and traditional kaymak (clotted cream).
• Savory Snacks and Salads: From crispy samsa (meat-filled pastries) to colorful Uzbek salads, the bazaar has something for every craving.
• Nuts and Dried Fruits: Feast your eyes on stalls overflowing with almonds, pistachios, raisins, apricots, and more—perfect as souvenirs or quick energy boosters.

The Vibrant Atmosphere

Walking through Chorsu Bazaar is an experience like no other. Vendors enthusiastically showcase their products, calling out to customers with offers and friendly banter. The air is filled with the aroma of spices, freshly baked bread, and sizzling kebabs.

• Try Before You Buy: Vendors often offer samples, especially for nuts, fruits, and sweets.
