خلفية ثقافية

Tashkent is famous for its wide Soviet-style boulevards, which were expanded after the 1966 earthquake to create a modern, airy city layout. In contrast to Tashkent, the 'Old City' (Eski Shahar) parts of Bukhara have very narrow streets, making the 'keng ko'cha' of the new city a symbol of modernization. The concept of 'kenglik' (wideness) is applied to the human heart. A 'bag'rikeng' (wide-chested) person is someone who is generous and forgiving. In the growing Uzbek economy, 'keng ko'cha' is often used by entrepreneurs to describe untapped market niches.
