1. BABUR RECREATION PARK
Babur Recreation Park is another amusement park in the center of Tashkent with lots of green spaces and beautiful pond in the center. Babur Park in Tashkent is home to the Seattle Peace Park, a collection of small tiles designed by Tashkent and its sister city - Seattle.
Seattle Peace Park is a heartwarming reminder of the Cold war from children's perspectives. Along the main alley of Babur Park , ceramic tiles along the way display hopes of peace and a better future. These tiles were made in the 1980s by schoolchildren from Seattle , hence the unusual unofficial name of the park . the 10000 tiles of the park are incredibly moving because of their simple, yet timeless message to favor peace and friendship over war and distrust.
Babur Culture and Recreation park in Tashkent is also home the peace Bell is rung every year on International Day of Peace on 21 September as a call for non -violence and cease fire as well as a commitment to the ideals of friendship and concord. As the park is located near the Tashkent University of Pedagogy, you will see lots of students in the park throughout the year.There is also good collection of amusement rides in the park to excite children. Seattle and Tashkent have -rather astonishingly - been twin cities since 1973, long before the relations of the superpowers began to thaw. The partnership between both cities began only 5 years after the Soviet intervention during the Prague Spring in 1968. It was the first city partnership between a US and a Soviet city and it has continued until today.
