Nestled at the core of the ancient Silk Road, Uzbekistan sits steeped in time, holding on proudly not just to its commerce but also to the exchange of ideas, art, and a rich culture. At first glance, you can’t help but be amazed at the sights that surround you - the air is thick with history dating back two millenia, laced with the fragrance of non (Uzbek bread), classic blue cupolas set against sandstone ruins and the inviting smiles of locals for a hot cup of tea.
