A large farmers' market in the northern district.
Yunusobod Dehqon Bozori is a large farmers' market (dehqon bozori) serving the Yunusobod District in northern Tashkent, Uzbekistan, with its address in the 3rd microdistrict. Dehqon bozori means farmers' market, and the name reflects its emphasis on fruit, vegetables and meat sold by growers and regular traders rather than imported or manufactured goods. Rows of covered and open stalls sell seasonal fruit and vegetables, herbs, dairy, eggs, nuts, dried fruit, and a separate meat hall with beef, lamb and poultry. Some sections sell pickled vegetables, spices, rice and bread, and a handful of stalls carry household items. Because the market serves a large residential district, products are authentic and aimed at residents, and tourist souvenirs are rare. Prices are lower than in the city centre for many staples, and bargaining is accepted but mild, especially for bulk purchases or end-of-day produce. Cash in Uzbek som is the standard payment, and small notes are useful; some stalls accept local mobile payments, but visitors should not count on cards. No tax-refund system applies. The atmosphere is energetic in the morning, with delivery trucks, porters and shoppers with trolleys moving through the aisles, and quieter in the late afternoon. Must-see corners include the produce hall in peak season, the dried fruit and nut counters, and the meat hall for a view of local food culture. Food options on site are limited to simple snack and tea stalls, while the surrounding streets of Yunusobod have cafes and restaurants for full meals. Hours are approximately 07:00 to 18:00 daily. For visitors staying in the north of Tashkent, the market is a practical source of fruit and picnic supplies and a useful contrast with the older Chorsu Bazaar.
