Янгиабад 2024. Прогулка 30 лет спустя. Что изменилось? Что осталось?

In this video, I visited Yangiabad, a small village in Uzbekistan known for its picturesque views and historical sites. I started the day with a stroll through a former music school, now converted into a cozy hotel. During my tour, I noticed that the village was undergoing renovations, with many houses being restored and apartments for sale along the streets. The locals, as always, were warm and welcoming. On the way, I stopped at a local store, Planeta Market, where I noticed the cash registers, but card payments were not yet available. While strolling the streets of Yangiabad, I met a security guard who offered to call me a taxi. Arriving in an electric car, the driver took me to the village center for just 20,000 soums. Electric cars have become popular here, which surprised me. Next, I went to a local cafe, where I had coffee and checked the prices for the hotel rooms. A single room costs 200,000 soums, while a cottage with a sauna and kitchen costs 1,200,000 soums. The hotel is under construction, but accommodations are already available. I also visited the Community Center, where everything has been preserved from Soviet times, including the marble finishes and antique curtains. A staff member showed me the concert hall with the original Petrov grand piano. Events are still held there, but the scale has been significantly reduced. He explained that local electricians and security guards earn around $50 a month, which is not enough to live comfortably. I also visited the old house at number 20, where my family once lived. The house looks lived-in, indicating that life continues in Yangiabad, although the population significantly declines in winter. Many apartments belong to Tashkent residents who come only for the summer. Finally, I tried visiting a sanatorium located nearby. Various medical treatments are offered here, including massage and ozone therapy. Despite initial difficulties with access, I was able to learn that the sanatorium is actively developing and its services are popular. This video immerses you in the atmosphere of old Yangiabad, where, despite changes, the spirit of the past remains. Join my journey to see how life in this cozy village harmoniously blends with modernization. *Keywords:* #Yangiabad Uzbekistan, former music school, hotel, apartment sales, electric cars, House of Culture, Soviet heritage, sanatorium, treatments, travel, locals, development Music: Sergej Bondar    / @groovesion-music
