Day Tour in Samarkand - Main Sightseeins in Historical Center

Day Tour in Samarkand - Main Sightseeins in Historical Center

No name is so evocative of the Silk Road as Samarkand. For most people it has the mythical resonance of Atlantis, fixed in the Western popular imagination by poets and playwrights of bygone eras, few of whom saw the city in the flesh. On the ground the sublime, larger-than life monuments of Timur, the Technicolor bazaar and the city’s long, rich history indeed work some kind of magic. Surrounding these islands of majesty, modern Samarkand sprawls across acres of Soviet-built buildings, parks and broad avenues used by buzzing Chevrolet taxis. You can visit most of Samarkand’s high-profile attractions in two or three days. If you’re short on time, at least see the Registan, Gur-e-Amir, Bibi-Khanym Mosque and Shah-i-Zinda.

Nuratau home stay observe and live the Uzbek rural life

Nuratau home stay observe and live the Uzbek rural life

2
This two-day trip to the Nuratau Mountains is a perfect way to experience rural life in Uzbekistan. The snowcapped peaks make for breathtaking landscapes that are vastly different from the rolling plains in other parts of the country. Disconnect yourself from city life as you escape to this quiet part where it feels like time has stood still since centuries past. You'll stay with a local mountain farmer family in their remote village, and will also explore the mountains' flora and fauna on short walks around the village. On your way back from Bukhara you'll make a stop at Nurata - an ancient city famous for Alexander the Great's fortress ruins as well as local Suzani workshops and Chashma mosques. Unlike your usual homestay experience, this trip is designed to be less hands-on. Two days of watching traditional village life and enjoying the mountain views should feel more like a holiday than volunteering.
