About this experience
Our elders say, 'If you want to be spiritually clean, go to Mecca. If you want to be rich, study the history of great ancestors. If you want both, travel the Great Silk Road!' Dear guests, I invite you to an unforgettable tour along this historical route! You will discover three wells in the desert, visit the emirs' residence, and see the sky on earth.
What to Expect
You will see:
- Cotton fields (in autumn). Witness how white snow lies on the ground at +30 degrees Celsius - an incredible sight!
- Eastern market. Experience the local color and, if desired, try the special samsa made from minced meat.
- Reservoir in the center of the desert. This is the blue sky on earth, beauty - like in Eastern tales!
- The trade domes of Bukhara - medieval architectural monuments built by representatives of the Uzbek Shaybanid dynasty. I will tell you how trade used to take place here and how it goes now.
- The Ark Citadel - the residence of the emirs of Bukhara. This monumental fortress is considered the oldest monument in the city.
We will also stop at the center of pilaf, where you can try the most popular dish in Uzbekistan.
You will learn:
- How the Great Silk Road was formed
- Where 'Uchkuduk - three wells' is located
- How Bukhara became the center of development and culture in the East
- Where to try real Bukhara pilaf made by the Sufis
