Bostanlyk District stands as the most captivating tourist destination in the Tashkent region. This expansive area is located in the northeastern part of Tashkent Province, ranging from 50 to 200 kilometers from Uzbekistan’s capital.
Among the most popular tourist attractions in Bostanlyk are the stunning Charvak Reservoir, the majestic Chimgan Mountains, and the renowned ski resorts of Amirsoy and Beldersay. This district is enveloped by towering mountains, including the Ugam, Pskem, and Chatkal ranges of the Southwestern Tian Shan, with peaks soaring over 4,300 meters. Notable summits include the towering Adylunga Peak (4,301 m), Beshter Peak (4,299 m), Big Chimgan (3,309 m), Amir Temur Peak (3,762 m), and Tavalgan Peak (3,854 m), among many others.
Three major rivers flow through the district: the Pskem, with its main tributaries—Oygaining, Maidanatal, and Charalma; and the Koksu and Chatkal rivers, along with their tributaries Akbulak, Terekli, and Karaarcha. All these rivers converge into the Charvak Reservoir, whose impressive dam was constructed in 1970. Today, it is a favored retreat for residents of Tashkent and tourists alike, who flock to the numerous hotels situated around the reservoir. The exotic villages of Brichmulla, Yakkatut, Sijjak, and Nanay, located around the reservoir, are also well-known.
