About the place

Navruz Park was created on the basis of a presidential decree of August 2017 and covers 2.5 hectares in the Shaykhontohur district, next to the Ankhor-Lokomotiv park. Tashkent's main celebrations of Navruz, the spring new year, take place here.

There are three ways in: the main gate on the side of the Osiyo Grand restaurant, through the Ankhor-Lokomotiv park, and over a footbridge across the Ankhor canal from the Olympic Glory Museum. No metro station is within easy walking distance; buses 52, 78, 97 and 148 stop nearby at Labzak.
