Fergana is not the largest city in Uzbekistan, but it is interesting for visitors and is considered an Uzbek tourist town and one of the most beautiful places in the Middle East.
Today, the total area of the city is about 80 sq. km. and about 238 thousand people inhabit it.
It is the third city by its size in all of the Fergana Valley.
From the very beginning, Fergana city was considered one of the most ancient cultural oasises in Central Asia. That is why crowds of foreigners want to visit it in order to be acquainted with its cultural life and discover all the mysteries of narrow streets and small yards.
The history of this city dates back to 1877. This happened when the Kokand Khanate was destroyed and the Fergana region was formed.
In those days, New Margilan was an administrative center (it was only 12 kilometers from the Old Margilan).
The military fortress was the central and most important building in the city. It occupies the largest part of the territory of the city. You can learn more if you book historic city tours through our travel agency.
From the beginning to present day, greening the city was assigned the most significant role. There are hundreds of trees and flowers on every street.
The first buildings that were built in the city were considered to be the governor's house (today, it is located near the Drama Theatre of the City), house of officers, and the House of Assistant Governor.
It is no secret that Fergana is the main center for oil production. In 1908, here was built an oil refinery, which has been operating to this day.
Over time, all the sights were razed to the ground. However, its suburbs are renowned for their unique scenery and clean air.
Therefore, it was a big mistake to be in Uzbekistan and not visit Fergana during the historic tour.
