Uzbekistan – Stunning Subway System

The Tashkent subway system was opened in 1977.  From then up until June 2018, it was illegal for anyone to take a photograph of the subway.

Chandeliers, marbled surface, a tribute to the first woman into space, and much more help to make this subway system quite stunning.
