Weekend tour

Samarkand:
“Everything I heard about Samarkand is all true, absolutely everything! Except for one thing: it turned out to be more beautiful than I could have imagined!”
Alexander the Great
What cities have you already visited? Athens, Rome, Paris, Baghdad? And what about Samarkand? Samarkand, which is the same age as Rome and Athens. He is over 2750 years old. The historic center of the city is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
According to an ancient legend, when the city of Samarkand was founded (VIII century BC), a leopard descended from the Zarafshan mountains and approved the construction of the city.

Samarkand is called an invaluable treasury of the culture of the peoples of Central Asia. The greatest monuments of medieval architecture have been preserved here - architectural forms and paintings of incredible beauty, and each of them deserves special attention. But, as Fred Barnard said: “It is better to see once than hear a hundred times.” Therefore, welcome to Samarkand - the Pearl of the East and the garden of the soul!

Bukhara:
Sacred Bukhara is one of the tourist gems of Uzbekistan. The historic center of the city is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
Let's say one thing, who was not in Bukhara, he lost a lot.
The oasis city, the largest settlement, is located right in the middle of the desert. The city, once located on the Great Silk Road, is one of the most ancient - its history exceeds 2500 years.
Bukhara embodied the centuries-old history of ancient traditions with Islam. A city with an incredible atmosphere of wisdom, sacredness and teaching. Once in this city, you find yourself as if in another world and on another planet. Incredible mixture of cultural, religious, ethnic civilizations made Bukhara a city of indelible impressions.
During the reign of Timur and the Timurids, Bukhara flourished. During this era, the city became a Garden of Eden. Now it is Sacred Bukhara or Bukhara Sharif.

Khiva:
Khiva is a "living" city-museum in the open air, which is over 2500 years old. And Khiva was also the center of the northern branch of the Great Silk Road.
According to one of the legends, the most ancient city was founded by the son of the biblical Noah Shem. He began by digging a well in the middle of the desert. Caravans and merchants passed by, tasting the amazingly delicious water and saying “kheyvak”, that is, “how good”. And so the fabulous Khiva appeared.
The construction of the most luxurious monumental buildings took place in the 18th and early 20th centuries. Then Khiva was under the control of the Kungrat dynasty. In 1763, Muhammad Amin came to power in Khorezm, a bright representative of the Uzbek family of Kungrats. Under him, Khiva quickly became the spiritual center of Central Asia. Thanks to him, the world saw many restored buildings, including the walls and towers of Ichan-Kala and the famous Juma Friday mosque.
In the middle of the 19th century, the defensive circle of Dishan-Kala was built on the initiative of Allakuli Khan. Thus, Khiva combines two cities in one: the outer Dishan-Kala and the inner Itchan-Kala. Now this fantastic city is under the auspices of UNESCO.

Termez:
According to legend, it is Termez that is an important center for the spread of Buddhism, which appeared there after the temporary reign of Alexander the Great (IV-III centuries BC). He founded his Alexandria of Oxiana on the site of the Bactrian fortress of Kampyrtepa. And only later in the II century BC, during the reign of the Greek-Bactrian king Demetrius, the real growth of a small town, founded in the citadel of his name, began.
Today, modern Termez is the southern gate of the country, which is always happy to receive guests. During the years of independence, it has become a beautiful, modern city. Its streets have been widened, roads have been restored, many modern oriental-style houses have been built, markets, recreation parks, sports complexes, and centers of education and culture have been improved.
Tourists and guests who want to touch the beauty and mystery of the past come to the city on the Amu Darya. When choosing this tour, you will get acquainted with another history of Uzbekistan.
