About the place
The Syr Darya forms in the Fergana Valley and runs north-west across Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan. Ancient writers knew it as the Jaxartes, and for long stretches of history it marked the edge between settled oases and the steppe.
In this region its water feeds the canals that turned the Hungry Steppe into farmland during the twentieth century. The banks are flat and green, with fishermen and grazing livestock rather than formal viewpoints.
The main road and railway between Tashkent and the south cross the river, so many travellers see it briefly from a bridge.
