Tashkent Park is a public park on Seattle's Capitol Hill, in the U.S. state of Washington. Dedicated in 1974, the park is named after Tashkent, Uzbekistan.[1][2][3]

According to Curbed, "This little park bisects an apartment-filled block in Capitol Hill. In the middle of the day it has some sunny spots, but it's best for relaxing in the shade, with both a decently-sized lawn and a wide selection of seating options."[4]
