A journey to Uzbekistan: before air travel, Uzbekistan lay along one of the great highways linking Europe to the spice lands. Marco Polo, who, between us, never set foot here, travelling further south through Afghanistan, wrote in The Book of Marvels: “Samarkand is a very noble and splendid city, where there are beautiful gardens and every fruit a man could wish for”. Other great travellers did not miss it, Alexander and Genghis Khan. True to form, Genghis Khan destroyed everything, clearing the way for Tamerlane, who made it a jewel of the East.

Why visit Uzbekistan with Voyageurs du monde?

At the crossroads, there are pivotal countries that should not be missed. Uzbekistan is one of them. Because it is a crossroads where several civilisations have settled. Because of the artistic treasures of Bukhara, Samarkand and Khiva as well. And then there is Tashkent, the last great Soviet urban planning achievement. A major region, from the tormented Aral Sea to the fertile Fergana Valley. When you travel with Voyageurs, you see all this, but you also prepare plov and manti, meet Uzbeks, and hear prayers for the dead at Tamerlane’s tomb.
