Universam Tashkent

Universal market

""Universam" in Tashkent is a market where it's surprising how many different things you can get buy or get done! Just go and soak up the energy..."

Once, I needed to get my earrings fixed and I didn't know where I could go to have that done. My friend told me: "Go to Universam." I was a bit surprised, as I thought that it was a market for clothes, books, bags, jewelry, souvenirs, etc.

I went there and I was excited about this market for the variety of services you can find for yourself. If you need your photo printed in three minutes, if you need to buy a unique souvenir for your friend's birthday, if you need to buy some dishes for your kitchen, if you need threads and fabric for your embroidery, or if you need stationery, if you need your glasses to be fixed, then welcome to Universam.

Even if you do not need anything, just walking through Universam and seeing the selling/buying processes, seeing how people bargain and how they leave this market satisfied just gives you some good energy.
