Tashkent

Al-Kashgari was the first to explain Tashkent as a “stone city” (Turkic tash - “stone”, kent - “city”). Today, the capital Tashkent remains not only a stone city, but also a thriving and sunny city in the heart of Uzbekistan.

Climate in Tashkent
The climate of Tashkent is subtropical inland. 457 mm of precipitation falls per year, which, in comparison with lowland semi-desert and desert areas, due to the proximity of the mountains, is quite significant here.
Frosts are usually very short-lived, but when it clears, the temperature sometimes drops to minus 20 °C or lower; in summer the temperature often reaches +35-40 °C in the shade. The lowest temperature is −29.5 °C, the highest is +44.6 °C. 
The 40-day period of windless summer heat, known as chilla, is an integral part of Tashkent's urban culture. Spring and autumn come early. This is mainly due to the fact that the air warms up and cools down quickly due to the absence of bodies of water.
• Average annual temperature - +15.2° C.
• Average annual wind speed is 1.4 m/s.
