The story
Origins and historical context
Chorsu occupies a long-standing commercial district near Tashkent’s old city. Markets here changed form repeatedly as the capital expanded.
Architecture, collections or landscape
The present blue-domed hall is a late-Soviet structure organised around broad internal tiers, with food and household trade extending into surrounding lanes.
How to experience it
This is a working market. Keep passages clear, ask before photographing people and explore beyond the central dome.
Why it matters
