Opening hours Uzbekistan
To see / To do Uzbekistan
Most shops close on Sundays, but street vendors work seven days a week. In the worst-case scenario, a trip to the nearest bazaar will suffice. In the tourist areas of Bukhara and Samarkand, shops are open every day and close late at night. Similarly, souvenir stores are generally open every day, with a few exceptions.
During Ramadan, some store owners may decide to close. Outside the tourist season, it can also be difficult to find craftsmen, but a simple phone call is enough to open the door.
Points of interest are generally open every day, but most museums have a weekly closing day, usually Monday.
Enjoying yourself Uzbekistan
There aren't really any opening hours: restaurants operate continuously throughout the day. With the exception of large hotels and touristy areas, restaurants generally close early, at 10 or 10.30pm maximum.
Take a break Uzbekistan

(To) please yourself Uzbekistan
Stores are generally open every day in urban centers and tourist areas. Small craftsmen also open their stores and workshops every day in the high tourist season, but may reduce their opening hours or days in winter. Nevertheless, it is often possible to find the telephone number to open the door on the shop window or from a neighbor.

Cities fall asleep relatively early, around 11pm, even though discos, bars and pubs are part of the capital's nightlife. Previously, the hours stretched late into the night and even into the early hours of the morning. The situation changed after a tragic accident in one of the clubs, which is why the government introduced a law on nightclubs and opening hours: all clubs are closed after 11pm.
