About this cemetery

Botkin Cemetery, officially City Cemetery No. 1, was created in 1872 after the Russian conquest of Tashkent, in connection with the building of the European part of the city. It is named after the street on which it stands and is described as the first Christian cemetery and one of the oldest historic cemeteries in Tashkent. It is now closed for new burials, with only burials in existing graves taking place.
