Uzbekistan-Central Asia with Oriental flavor
They say that appetite comes with eating, as well as with travel: the more you travel, the more you want to see different countries, beautiful cities, unusual sights and interesting places. But if you are a tourist with experience and “standard” European tours are already tired, you should pay attention to the countries of the East and Asia. Uzbekistan tours will surprise you unexpectedly and pleasantly.
Uzbekistan-Central Asia with Oriental flavor
Uzbekistan is a country with an Oriental flavor, located in the Central part of Central Asia. The state of Uzbekistan itself is quite young, but the area in which it is located, keeps a long history with a bright original culture and beautiful traditions. In the ancient cities of Uzbekistan (Bukhara, Kokand, Rishtan, Samarkand, Halchayan, Khiva and others), you may get the feeling that you have made a journey through time and found yourself in the past — in the Ancient East, or in some Eastern fairy tale.It is best to plan a trip to the Eastern fairy tale in the spring or autumn — these are the seasons with the most favorable weather for visiting Uzbekistan.
