UZBEKISTAN
Uzbekistan is a hospitable country with a rich culture located on the historic Silk Road. In ancient times, Uzbekistan was a link between different countries and people, a meeting point of languages, cultures and civilizations. In its cities we can see old quarters where the architectural appearance and lifestyle have not changed for centuries. In this country you can lose track of time and travel to the oriental past.
