Alexander Pushkin, Bronze monument in Pushkin Square, Tashkent, Uzbekistan
The bronze statue stands tall in front of the Ministry of Light Industry, surrounded by antique benches and traditional flower arrangements.
Soviet sculptor Mikhail Anikushin created this monument in 1974 to commemorate the 175th anniversary of Alexander Pushkin's birth in Russian literature.
The monument remains a central gathering point where Russian literature enthusiasts and local residents meet to celebrate poetry through readings and performances.
Visitors can reach the monument by walking through Babur Park, which connects to the intersection of Babur and Shota Rustavelli streets.
Despite Pushkin never visiting Central Asia, his literary influence led Tashkent to preserve this monument after the Soviet era, unlike other Russian figures.
