Uzbekistan is a very beautiful and hospitable country.
But before you visit it, you need to know about some important nuances.
A tourist who does not receive this information before arriving in a Central Asian country may face serious problems.
The Zen channel “Traveling with a Camera” reports on the bans related to Uzbekistan.
Photographing specific objects
In Uzbekistan, you shouldn't take pictures of railway stations and airports.
Questions from security guards and other consequences (for example, a fine) cannot be ruled out.
Therefore, do not record the above-mentioned objects on camera.
Wearing revealing clothing
While in Uzbekistan, you should avoid wearing revealing and short clothing.
So, instead of shorts, it is better to choose trousers.
Ignoring the recommendation is unlikely to lead to dangerous consequences, but sidelong glances are inevitable.
Cut bread with a knife
In the Central Asian country there is an interesting tradition - breaking bakery products.
A tourist's attempt to use a knife to cut flatbreads may be met with negative reactions from locals. Respect traditions!
Touching women
Do not touch the local fair sex.
You shouldn't even start a conversation with an Uzbek woman (unless her husband gives you permission to do so).
By the way, you shouldn’t take pictures of Uzbek women either.
Drinking tap water
In Uzbekistan it is better to drink bottled water.
While in this country, do not forget to stock up on liquids, as drinking tap water can be dangerous.
