Potential Destinations
Though they are fully customizable, Uzbekistan travel packages typically include a round trip of Uzbekistan. Your trip will begin in the capital city of Tashkent, where you can take in the sights of the vast complex of Khast-i-Imam, the religious center of the city. It includes several buildings from the 16th century. The city also boasts a magnificent art museum, housed in the former palace of a Russian diplomat. You may also choose to end your tour of the city in the famous bazaar of Chorsu. Snap a photo of its blue dome before venturing inside to shop.
Once you have fully experienced the capital, you will begin exploring the rest of the country. If you are interested in architecture, Bukhara is the place for you! Here you can marvel at constructions from as early as the 12th century and also view one of the oldest architectural monuments with remains of a Buddhist monastery.
No trip to Uzbekistan is complete without a visit to the Grand Charyn Canyon. The beauty and splendor of these vertical cliffs is sure to be a favorite memory from your Uzbekistan travel experience.
The magical city of Khiva is also a must for all trips to Uzbekistan. Here you can browse one of the biggest open-air museums in Central Asia, full of architectural monuments.
Another great site when you travel to Uzbekistan is Samarkand, where you can view the famous family crypt of the dynasty of Tamerlane and marvel at the architecture of the Registan Square.
If you are really adventurous, one option is to travel to a yurt camp, where you can try riding a camel and even spend the night in a yurt—a portable round tent typically used by nomadic peoples.
If relaxation, rather than adventure, is your goal, you won’t want to miss the Charvak Reservoir—lovely blue water surrounded by mountains. It is a favorite spot for the locals, where you can enjoy many restaurants and beaches.
