About Uzbekistan

Print this panel email to a friend

Located at the very heart of Central Asia, 20 centuries ago Uzbekistan was a key link on the Great Silk Road connecting China with Western Europe.

Uzbekistan's golden age was under Tamerlaine in the 14th century AD. Ruling an empire stretching from Turkey to China, he made Samarkand his capital and left a breathtaking architectural legacy including mosques, madrassahs and majestic Registan Square.

Today, the old atmosphere of the Great Silk Road still survives in the oriental bazaars and tea houses where the many nationalities of Central Asia gather together wearing their traditional and colourful clothes.

Trekking in the Pskem Mountain Range

Trekking in the Pskem mountain range in the Western Tien Shan mountains, otherwise known for good reason as the heavenly mountains, the area offers some of the best mountaineering and trekking opportunities in the world.

The remoteness, variety of mountains, colourful and friendly local communities, relative ease of access and stable weather make this one of most exciting but relatively unknown areas to trek in.
