Bukhara is one of the most ancient cities of Central Asia — a spiritual and cultural heart of the Islamic world. For centuries it served as a major hub on the Great Silk Road, a center of science, crafts, and faith. The Old City of Bukhara, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, preserves more than 140 architectural monuments that reflect the grandeur of its glorious past.
The excursion to Bukhara offers an encounter with the city’s greatest historical monuments. You will visit the Samanid Mausoleum, the unique Chashma-Ayub Mausoleum, the elegant Bolo-Hauz complex, the ancient Ark Citadel, and the iconic Poi-Kalyan ensemble with its magnificent madrasahs of Abdulaziz Khan and Ulugh Beg. At the “Silk Road Spices” teahouse, you’ll enjoy a tasting of aromatic tea with oriental spices and sweets. The journey concludes with visits to the countryside gems — the Sitorai Mokhi Khosa Palace and the Bahoutdin Naqshbandi Memorial Complex.
