春秋带你走进中亚

What? Is there anyone who doesn't know how to play in Samarkand?

This is a travel guide for Samarkand, so the length is limited. Best travel season Uzbekistan has a severely arid continental climate, with long, hot summers, with average temperatures in July and August ranging from 26 to 32°C, and daytime temperatures in the south often reaching 40°C; winters are short and cold, with average temperatures in January ranging from -6 to -3°C, and the absolute minimum temperature in the north being -38°C. Autumn is relatively comfortable and most suitable for traveling. Must-finish recommendation Registan Square in Samarkand Play time: 2-3 hours ☀️ Features: A large group of seminary buildings in the center of Samarkand, consisting of three seminaries built between the 15th and 17th centuries. The buildings are tall, majestic and magnificent, with magnificent mosques inside. They are classics of Central Asian architecture. Among them, the Ulugbek Seminary was one of the best Muslim institutions in the 15th century. Bibi Hanim Mosque in Samarkand Play time: 1 hour Features: After returning from his expedition to India, Timur the Great built the largest mosque in the world at that time. The giant blue dome is amazing. However, because the skilled craftsmen from all over the world were not familiar with the natural environment of Central Asia and blindly pursued height, the buildings began to show signs of collapse as soon as they were completed. Due to the frequent earthquakes in Central Asia, the mosque was severely damaged in the 1897 earthquake, and its structural defects cannot be fully repaired to this day. 💡 Samarkand Ulugh Beg Observatory Play time: 1-2 hours The largest astronomical observatory in Central Asia. As an observatory with a three-story circular building, it has a unique marble sextant and horizontal dial, also known as the giant wall quadrant. Featured Recommendations 😎 ⏩Must-buy special products📢 Uzbekistan's most famous specialties include handicrafts, ceramics and raisins. Uzbekistan's embroidery is very famous. Bed sheets, pillowcases, hats, clothes, etc. are all embroidered, very exquisite. There are also the most famous embroidery plates with exquisite workmanship. Bukhara carpets are internationally renowned and are the best among antique carpets. In addition, Rishton is the most famous pottery center in Uzbekistan and also a prestigious pottery production area in the world. Every piece of pottery is full of vivid and distinctive Uzbek national characteristics and is the most representative gift. ▶️Must-eat food📣 Uzbek people love to eat beef, mutton, horse meat and dairy products. The most famous delicacy is pilaf. I recommend pilaf, barbecue, naan, baked buns and mutton soup. Useful Tips ✍✍ Time difference ⌚️ Uzbekistan is located in the Eastern Time Zone 5, 3 hours behind Beijing Time in China 📞Phone and Internet📡 It is recommended to buy a local phone card at the airport or downtown. Most hotel lobbies have free wireless Internet access areas. Internet charges in the rooms vary according to personal needs, but the speed of WIFI is average in the local area, so it is not as convenient as buying a phone card. Domestic mobile phone operators also have data packages for overseas roaming, but there will be problems with some websites not being able to open.
