Uzbekistan and the Silk Road cities May 2017
"Where's Usbekistan?" And "Why Usbekistan?" Are the two questions everyone has asked about our next adventure. Usbekistan sits between the Middle East, Russia and the Far East, strategically placed along the fabled Silk Road trade route. And it's to see those fabled cities of Samarkand, Bukhara and Khiva the reason for our trip. The Silk Road trade resulted in cities of great wealth and magnificent pre Islamic and Islamic architecture. We are travelling in a small group tour with Mountain Kingdoms and you if you click on the itinerary link we think it will give you a good idea as to why we are going. http://www.mountainkingdoms.com/holiday/silk-road-to-samarkand
