Fergana Getting there & around

Getting there & away

Land

Bus & shared taxi

Shared taxis, marshrutkas and a few buses depart to Andijon throughout the day from the old Fergana bus station, north of the bazaar (marshrutka/taxi per seat 1200/3000S, one hour; bus 700S, two hours). This is also the spot to find rides to Margilon (marshrutka/taxi per seat 200/500S, 20 minutes) and Shakhimardan.

The main transport hub for westbound traffic is the Yermazar long-distance bus station, 3km northwest of the centre on the road to Margilon. Here you’ll find shared taxis to Tashkent (13, 000S, four hours) and shared taxis and marshrutkas to Kokand (marshrutka/taxi per seat 1200/4000S, 1½ hours) and Namangan (1500/5000S, 1¾ hours).

For Rishton (marshrutka/shared taxi per seat 800/3000S, 45 minutes), use the new Fergana bus station on the western edge of the bazaar.
