Tashkent Circus

Since the end of the 19th century, strolling circus troupes from the Russian Empire and European countries constantly toured Tashkent. The first circus-chapito building was destroyed in 1966 by an earthquake. Ten years later a new stage was erected. Today, the Tashkent circus troupe tours around the world. Moreover, thanks to their skills, many artists have become winners of international competitions.
