Issue #48 — In Search of Inspiration

US$5.00

✨ Celebrating the people, places, and ideas that spark creativity across Uzbekistan.

Inspiration is the invisible force behind every masterpiece, every brave business idea, and every cultural leap. In this issue of Visit Uzbekistan, we dive into the stories of individuals — artists, entrepreneurs, diplomats, and creatives — who turn everyday moments into lasting impact. Through their voices, we see a more personal, vibrant Uzbekistan.

Here’s what you’ll discover inside:

  • 🎭 People of Purpose — From Nadira Khamraeva, prima ballerina and symbol of national grace (p.8), to Mirkhan Sagitov, curator of the Samarkand Marathon (p.16), this issue introduces the dreamers shaping the nation's cultural and social movements.

  • 🌍 Cultural Bridges — Discover how ambassadors from Italy, Romania, and Bangladesh perceive and celebrate Uzbek heritage (p.12), and explore cross-cultural identity through the lens of Third Culture Kids (p.24

  • 💐 Women Leading with Vision — Dive into stories of female entrepreneurs like Muborak Mukhrimova (p.20) and the community-powered Teplo Store (p.40), where creativity meets resilience.

  •  💎 Art, Fashion & Legacy — From jeweller Ramziddin Azizov’s heirloom creations (p.28) to the rise of Coco Chapan fashion by Nadira Abdurakhmanova (p.33), the ART & CULTURE section showcases heritage reimagined.

  • 🌲 Nature’s Power to Move Us — Explore the raw beauty of Kashkadarya’s wilderness (p.42), the tranquil healing of Zomin Resort (p.54), and Yapon Bogʻi, a Japanese oasis tucked into Tashkent (p.56).

  • 📸 A City Seen Anew — Photographer Shakhodat Rakhmatbaeva captures Tashkent’s soul in a visual journey that blends ancient routes with modern rhythms (p.49).

  • 🛣️ Journeys Worth Taking — From Jizzakh to Navoi (p.52), uncover hidden landscapes, forgotten villages, and a quiet Uzbekistan untouched by the crowds.

This issue is an ode to the inspired and the inspiring — those who create with love, live with passion, and leave their mark. Whether through movement, memory, or meaning, they invite us all to look deeper.
