Silk Road highlights
Wander Registan Square
Registan Square is perhaps the most iconic site in Uzbekistan, a legacy of the legendary Timur’s dynasty, the famous king who made Samarkand his capital city. Registan means Sandy Place and was the city’s primary trade centre.
Ancient remains in Merv
Merv was a Silk Road centre of culture and royalty from the 11th and 12th centuries when it was the capital city of the region. Nowadays, you can marvel at the remains of some of Turkmenistan’s greatest architectural feats, like Buddhist monasteries and the Erk Kala fortress.
Scenic vistas aplenty
The natural scenery of the Central Asian region isn't all that known about, but it sure should be. Beautiful pastures surrounded by towering snow-spotted mountains, interspersed with flowing rivers and wide open lakes, make this region an amazing space to enjoy nature's splendour.
A traditional yurt stay
Spend a night in a yurt camp just like the nomads of old. Yurts are the traditional dwellings of rovers in the Central Asian region. Although they can differ from place to place, they are typically multi-share rooms that are shared by a group.
