This is Part 02 of the long conversation with you. I visited Samarkand (Uzbekistan) just before the Navruz Festival days. On the 19 and 20 of March, I went there with my colleague Dr Alisher who belongs to Samarkand Region. He went ahead leaving me at Samarkand to be the Sole Traveller! The things to see there can be listed as many but what I could see in those 2 days and 1 night are here with a recommendation to MUST JOIN Samarkand to feel its historical essence.
Tashkent to Samarkand around 3-4 hours depending on the way you travel
You cross regions and mountains and cities.
Hotels should be taken near The Registan Square to make it easy to move around.
Registan Square should be kept for the evening so that you can join it at Sunset and see the lights on the majestic buildings.
Silk Road Tourism Centre is a newly built area where you find the developing Uzbekistan. This part was also active during the SCO 2022 as well.
Go there around noon and stay till the evening to see lights, concerts and the weather.
Do not miss the boating and shopping and bread - tea as well
Eternal Village here has Food, Art Galleries of Awarded Traditional Artists like pottery, clothing, metal, jewellery and ironsmiths and more
It has the SILK ROAD 'real' things where you get to see the spices we see in India and how the silk route too these to the world.
Move to the south of this eternal village to see tall-building of Hotels and also see the Dacha i.e. Villas in the Eco Village. This wooden - Japanese architecture majestic villas are available for rent for family stays.
Move far south through the pedestrian through Wild Flower Gardens and reach a lake.
This is for picnics and fishing and just sitting for hours with kids and family and friends under the horizonI did not go to Konigil Paper Factory which remains on the list for the next visit.
