SEOUL PARK

Seoul Park is a unique cultural zone in Tashkent. It is entirely located on the territory of a larger attraction - Friendship Park, better known as the Babur Park of Culture and Recreation. It’s easy for guests of Uzbekistan to get confused by the names, because now the central eco-park is called Babur Park, but locals still call it Friendship Park.

Entrance is paid, but the cost is completely symbolic. On the territory of the park there are several reservoirs decorated in the South Korean style, as well as several architectural buildings of the same design.

The park was opened in September 2014; it became a gift from the Republic of Korea to Uzbekistan, a symbol of cooperation and cultural exchange between the two countries. In the very center of the park there is a large bell, symbolizing the friendship between Korea and Uzbekistan. What’s noteworthy is that there is also a bell installed in the Friendship Park itself, which makes these decorations twin cities.

This is a very quiet and cozy place for true romantics, artists and writers. Photographers take their first professional steps here, because in this place you can find a unique play of light and shadow, not to mention excellent plans. Ducks swim in the pond, and in the clear water you can see beautiful fish. Several narrow paths lead deep into the park, to benches under the shade of trees. Throughout the year, except, of course, winter, flowers bloom in the park. The entire area is covered with green grass, which is regularly cut, turning it into a uniform carpet. The park does not sell food, there are no noisy rides, or carousels. This is a place of emotional release and real relaxing rest.

You can often find people doing yoga and breathing exercises in the park. Many of them are professional trainers in this field. The atmosphere of the park inspires creativity, allows you to immerse yourself in the peace of the east and see life in new colors.

It is impossible to miss Seoul Park inside Friendship Park. It is located right next to the main entrance to the latter and is easily recognizable by its authentic walls, made in the style inherent in medieval Korean culture. The buildings erected here in the same style were personally approved by the Vice-Mayor of Seoul, Im Jong-seok, and the Ambassador of the Republic of Korea to Uzbekistan, Lee Wook-hyun.
