Ride the Tashkent metro
Join the locals and take a trip on the Tashkent underground. Tashkent was the first city in Central Asia to construct an underground system and its stations are some of the most ornate.
See Shakhrisabz
The birthplace of 14th-century warlord Timur (or Tamerlane), this once great city has long since declined, but impressive monuments remain – including the site of his summer residence.
Visit Yodgorlik silk factory
Make sure to stop in the town of Margilan in the Fergana valley where you can watch the production of silk at the Yodgorlik silk factory.
Shop for handicrafts
During your visit, be sure to look out for locally made handicrafts. Choose from unique glazed ceramics in Gijduvan or suzani (silk and cotton coverlets) in Shakhrisabz, wander the bazaars of Bukhara and watch skilled craftsmen at work in Samarkand where beautiful fabrics, carpets, leather and jewellery are all on offer.
