Tashkent → Samarkand

A first taste of Uzbekistan

Start in Tashkent. Fall for Samarkand. A little less rushing, a lot more being there.

A little more than a route.

A focused introduction to two sides of Uzbekistan: the everyday energy of Tashkent and the architectural beauty of Samarkand. Five days with room for the landmarks, the food and the moments in between.
