If you could only visit one place in Uzbekistan without a doubt it should be Samarkand. The capital of Tamerlane’s empire, it’s the cultural center of Central Asian states, with unique, interesting and complicated history. Samarkand is an oasis in the desert and it was one of the most important centres on the Silk Road. Today Samarkand is a safe and easy to get to destination with many international flights and the comfortable bullet train from Tashkent, Uzbekistan’s capital.
