Near the Memorial to the Victims of Repression, I also visited the Museum of Victims of Political Repression in Tashkent. This museum, close to the Chirchiq River and visible from the Tashkent Tower, is an essential stop for those interested in understanding the painful history of political repression in Uzbekistan during the Soviet era.
