Fergana is the capital of Fergana Oblast in the eastern part of Uzbekistan, located in the southern part of the fertile Fergana Basin, near the border with Kyrgyzstan. The city was founded in 1876 as "New Margilan" and later renamed Fergana, after the surrounding area. As an important industrial and cultural center of Uzbekistan, Fergana's economy is based on petroleum processing, chemical, textile and food industries, as well as agricultural products such as fruit and cotton.
Located in the hinterland of Central Asia, Fergana has a continental climate, with hot, dry summers and mild winters with little snow. The city is surrounded by branches of the Tien Shan mountain range, which provides a beautiful natural environment and rich agricultural resources. Thanks to the irrigation system, it is one of the most densely populated oases in Uzbekistan.
Fergana retains its Soviet-era architecture while incorporating traditional Uzbek elements. Tourists can visit local museums, parks and bazaars to experience local handicrafts and cuisine. The city's proximity to the historic cities of Khokand and Margilan makes it easy to explore the Silk Road heritage. The safe and friendly atmosphere makes it a great stop on any trip to Central Asia.
