Qarshi, Regional capital in Qashqadaryo Region, Uzbekistan

Qarshi spreads across an elevation of 374 meters, featuring ancient mosques, traditional markets, and cultural institutions that reflect Central Asian architectural styles.

The settlement originated as Nakhshab in the 7th century BC, later developing into a major trade center along the Silk Road network.

The Kok Gumbaz Mosque, constructed in the 16th century, stands as the largest religious building in the region with traditional Islamic architectural elements.

The city connects to Tashkent through regular transportation services, with a distance of 520 kilometers separating these two major urban centers.

Local restaurants prepare tandoor-gosht, a regional lamb dish seasoned with zira spices, following centuries-old cooking methods from the Kashkadarya region.
