5.0 based on 30 reviews
Uzbekistan is the perfect place to travel & explore the rich history of the Silk Road trade through the well-preserved architecture of ancient cities like Khiva, Samarkand, and Bukhara. These cities tell travelers fascinating stories about the Golden Age of Islam; when pioneering advancements in astrology, mathematics, and medicine took place. Bukhara is where Marco Polo’s father and uncle stayed for three years before moving to the court of the Mongol Khan, and where Avicenna wrote his teachings in medicine, while Samarkand was the capital of the Timurid empire. Uzbekistan is a must visit for people who want to learn about the history and culture of the region. Marvelous mausoleums, gloriously decorated madrassas, and huge mosques will impress people of all ages. Visit the fabulous Soviet art expositions at the Savitsky Museum. The best time to travel is Spring and Autumn. If you decided to visit Uzbekistan then Registon Travel can be your helper! Welcome to Uzbekistan!

4. Navoi Opera Theater

Navoi Opera Theatre has daily performances at ridiculously cheap prices making it a great place to experience an opera. I was lucky to catch a rare matinee performance of one (Aleko by S.Rakhmaninov) as I always arrived late and never stayed through an evening in Tashkent. Looking around in its beautiful interior is worth the price of admission alone. The performance I caught had a good balance of singing and dancing making it interesting enough to sit through for 90 minutes.
