Yakkasaray (Uzbek: Yakkasaroy tumani, Russian: Яккасарайский район, romanized: Yakkasaraysky rayon) is one of 12 districts (tuman) of Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan.[3]

Overview

Yakkasaray is one of the most central districts of the city, and the smallest in area. It was established on August 26, 1936, with the name of Frunze,[4] referring to the Kyrgyz Bolshevik leader Mikhail Frunze. On May 8, 1992, Frunze became Yakkasaray District. [4]

Yakkasaray borders with the districts of Chilanzar, Shayxontoxur, Yunusabad, Mirobod and Sergeli.
