Uzbekistan is the most safe place in CIS. As there are many security workers and police patrols the city.

But not only police and security workers are the reasons of safety,Uzbek People are very friendly to foreigners, the reason is that more that 70 nations live in peace and tolerance.

Also as a guest in Uzbekistan you will be accorded much respect and shown great hospitality, for local families gladly seize the chance to welcome new friends from abroad.

City rating:

Winnipeg and Uzbekistan are very different cities by saying cheap things ? you are very wrong and the general idea of your review is that Winnipeg and it culture have much more to offer and it is more expensive than and advanced than Tashkent . but the sad truth is Winnipeg is not interesting or expensive or even cultured with any kinds of momentum of history or even hang out spots . The sole purpose of your unusual review is to state that you eat Uzbek food ? and you live in Winnipeg ? that's amazingly delicious but pointless . Tashkent is very popular among many nations and people, i just cant't understand how come you compared Winnipeg to Tashkent ? if i may suggest next review try to compare between more resemble cities with something factual in common and not just what are the differences , maybe you will write a much better review than showing ignorance and comparing the cheap against the expensive when it's about life art and culture please don't embarrass me or your self .
