Alisher Navoi Central Park. CC: Adam Harangozó
Features:
Another pleasant, centrally located run in Samarkand is to combine University Boulevard and Alisher Navoi Central Park. University Boulevard is a wide street built on a grand scale, with the Amir Temur Monument at its north end. Along its median, Universitet Xiyoboni Park is a pedestrian path running the length of the boulevard, featuring a lovely tree canopy. A loop is 2.4 km.
We recommend combining with Alisher Navoi Central Park. There are wide, well-lit pedestrian paths running ~1 km west to the Alisher Navoi statue. So overall this makes for a ~5.5 km run!
Add-Ons: Combine with our Samarkand ‘runseeing’ tour, whose route is adjacent to University Blvd.
Essentials
- 5.5 km (3.4 miles)
