Uzbekistan
Uzbekistan lies along the route of the ancient Silk Road, home to the legendary city of Samarkand, full of enormous monuments constructed by Timur and possessing some of the most spectacular Islamic architecture anywhere. Another jewel in the crown of Uzbekistan is Bukhara, holiest city in Central Asia, with madrassas, markets, mausoleums and mosques to explore. The land between two rivers – the Amu Darya and the Syr Darya, which fed the Aral Sea – Uzbekistan is the heart of Central Asia and has some of the region's most magnificent attractions.
