Kosmonavtlar ("Cosmonauts", formerly known as Проспект Космонавтов, Prospekt Kosmonavtov) is a space-programme-themed station of the Tashkent Metro. It honors Soviet cosmonauts such as Yuri Gagarin and Valentina Tereshkova, the first man and woman in space. The station was opened on 8 December 1984 as part of the inaugural section of the line, between Alisher Navoiy and Toshkent.Until 2018 it was illegal to photograph the Tashkent metro, because it also worked as a nuclear bomb shelter.
