Convert time from Andijon
Andijon is in the Asia/Tashkent timezone (UZT/UTC+5), with no daylight saving. Uzbekistanβs fourth-largest city has a population of around 450,000.
Andijon sits in the eastern end of the Fergana Valley, one of Central Asiaβs most densely populated and historically significant regions. The valley is surrounded by mountain ranges and contains a patchwork of Uzbek, Tajik, and Kyrgyz communities, divided by borders that cut through what was once a unified agricultural and trading zone. Andijon is on the Uzbek side.
The city runs on Uzbekistan Time, UTC+5. The IANA identifier is Asia/Tashkent, used for all of Uzbekistan. No daylight saving. Uzbekistan abolished DST in 1991 after independence from the Soviet Union.
Babur, massacre, and the Fergana borders
Andijon is famous for two things in recent history: being the birthplace of Babur, the founder of the Mughal Empire, and the site of the 2005 Andijon massacre, when government forces fired on protesters. The cityβs name carries different weight depending on where in the world you say it.
The Fergana Valleyβs geography makes it a complex place. Andijon is very close to the borders of Tajikistan (UTC+5) and Kyrgyzstan (UTC+6). Cross into Kyrgyzstan and the clock jumps one hour forward. The borders here are complex and contested, a legacy of Soviet administrative decisions.
Tashkent, Uzbekistanβs capital, shares the same UTC+5 timezone. 9am in Andijon is 4am in London during European winter.
