Day 8: Mejdi Tours Traveling the Silk and Spice Roads, Uzbekistan, May 2025

Samarkand

By Paul Bryers

Our route led us over the mountains south of Samarkand to Shahrisabz, near the Afghan border.

Shahrisabz is home to a prominent Sunni Muslim mosque and outstanding ancient ruins.

Visited the ancient complex at Registan Square – Amir Temur Mausoleum and Palaces – very beautiful inside and out….climbed the minaret.
