About the place
Created under a 2019 presidential decree, the park opened on 9 May 2020. Its zones follow a sequence of feelings: the horrors of war, with trenches running beneath tanks and guns and an original T-34 that fought in the war; work on the home front; grief; joy; and gratitude. Covered terraces in the national style hold information screens.
On top of an artificial mound stands the Eternal Feat monument to General Sabir Rahimov and all soldiers from Uzbekistan; a tree and a marble plaque honour each of the 301 Heroes of the Soviet Union from the republic. There is also a Museum of Glory, a fountain shaped like the Order of Victory and an amphitheatre. The park is on Sagban Street.
Why go
- Walk-through trenches beneath real tanks
- 301 trees for 301 Heroes of the Soviet Union
- A large, newly built park for a family outing
