Weekend Trip in Samarkand – A Journey Through Time 🕌✨

#hellohalloween If you only have a weekend in Uzbekistan, make it Samarkand — the legendary Silk Road city where history and beauty collide. 📍 Must-See Highlights: Registan Square – The heart of Samarkand and one of the most stunning plazas in the world. Three majestic madrasahs glowing in blue and gold — especially magical at night! Shah-i-Zinda Necropolis – A long corridor of sparkling turquoise tombs. It feels like walking through a gemstone. Gur-e-Amir Mausoleum – Final resting place of Timur (Tamerlane), featuring one of the most beautiful domes in Central Asia. Bibi-Khanym Mosque – Once one of the largest mosques in the Islamic world — still breathtaking today. Siab Bazaar – Grab fresh samsa, dried fruits, and traditional sweets while watching daily life unfold.

The most worthwhile place in Samarkand is here, but there is one thing that is really not worth it.
