Do’s and Dont’s in Uzbekistan: WBC Annual Convention Tashkent
We are less than a month away from celebrating the most important boxing event of the year: The 2023 World Boxing Council Annual Convention in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, and we want to watch our P`s and Q`s!
Like all new places we visit, the country has its own traditions, rules and customs. We share this list to learn a little more about the culture of this beautiful country: Here is a do and don`t chart…so we won`t err.
* Do remove your shoes while visiting any holy place or entering into someone’s house.
* Do compliment to your host in Uzbekistan for their hospitality and food.
* Do bring some small gift (non-alcoholic) if invited for dinner to any Uzbekistan house.
* Do wear moderate dress that covers arms and legs while visiting any holy place.
* Do use your hand including arm while beckoning to any Uzbek.
* Don’t walk in front of anyone who is praying as Uzbeks’ believe it invalidates their prayer.
* Don’t ever use your left hand to any Uzbek citizen for passing anything.
* Don’t point your finger to any Uzbek as it is act of demand
* Don’t curl your index finger while beckoning to any Uzbek, as in Uzbek only animals are called like this.
* Don’t think of bringing dogs to any holy place as they believe dogs are unclean animals and their presence make the prayer invalid.
