In front of the Tashkent Circus, a charming equestrian portrait is improvised. Inaugurated in 1976, the building is recognisable by its dome, often compared to a UFO or a piala (Uzbek teapot), and was designed by architects Genrikh Aleksandrovich and Gennady Masyagin. It is now part of the Tashkent Modernism XX/XXI research and conservation project, supported by the Uzbekistan Art and Culture Foundation.
