  If you are in Tashkent city center, start at Mustaqillik Maydoni (Independence Square). From there, head northeast along Istiklol Street until you reach the intersection with Navoi Street. Turn left onto Navoi Street and continue walking for about 1 kilometer. You will pass several shops and cafes along the way. As you approach the intersection with Taras Shevchenko Street, look for the signs pointing towards Memorial Square (Yodgorlik Maydoni). Cross the street at the traffic lights and continue straight for a short distance until you see the entrance to Memorial Square on your right.

• Public Transport

  To reach Memorial Square via public transport, start by finding a nearby bus or trolleybus station. Take a bus or trolleybus that goes towards Yunusabad District. You can ask locals or check the route maps available at the stop. Once you board, remain on the bus until you reach the Yunusabad stop. From there, you can either walk straight down Yunusabad Street for about 500 meters, or catch a local taxi for a short ride to the square. Look for the signs or ask the driver to drop you off at Memorial Square.

• Bicycle

  If you prefer cycling, rent a bicycle from one of the rental stations in the city. Start from Tashkent's central area and head towards the main avenue, Amir Temur Avenue. Cycle northeast until you reach the intersection with Shota Rustaveli Street. Turn left and continue for about 1.5 kilometers. You'll pass by several parks and local attractions. Keep an eye out for directional signs toward Memorial Square, which will be on your left as you approach the final stretch.
