Uzbekistan
The cultural heartland of Central Asia, Uzbekistan offers the perfect mix of a rich culture without the tourist hordes. Samarkand and Bukhara are two cities that glitter like jewels, offering sublime Islamic architecture, bustling bazaars and a genuine hospitality, perfected through the ages owing to the country’s historic associations with the Silk Road. In this land of myths and fables, a trip into the heartland is a must. The villagers of Sentab live in magnificent surroundings of foothills and mountains, lakes and deserts, and time spent here gives a unique insight into the culture and landscape of Uzbekistan.
