History in Uzbekistan

The jewel of the Silk Road, where the turquoise domes and tiled madrasas of Registan Square glow gold at sunset.

A living museum of Silk Road trade, its old town dense with caravanserais, trading domes and thousand-year-old minarets.

A perfectly preserved walled oasis city, its Itchan Kala fortress packed with minarets, palaces and mud-brick lanes.

The remote Karakalpak capital hiding the Savitsky Museum's world-class trove of Soviet avant-garde art near the Aral Sea.
