Silk Road and splendid architecture

About

Discover Uzbekistan

Uzbekistan is the surprise nobody expects. At the crossroads of the Silk Road, the country preserves mosques and madrasas covered in turquoise mosaics that rival any monument in the world.

Samarkand, with the Registan, is a visual shock. Bukhara is an open-air museum with minarets and hammams 500 years old.

Tashkent, the capital, blends Soviet brutalism with Asian modernity. And everywhere, Uzbek hospitality makes you feel like a guest, not a tourist.
