"Museum City" The first site in the country to be listed as a World Heritage Site: Ancient City of Khiva 🇺🇿🕌🐪

#September2024

Khiva, formerly known as Khwarezm, is an oasis city on the Silk Road in Uzbekistan. In the 17th century, Khiva was a slave market.

UNESCO describes Khiva in its Silk Road Project as "a center of education, science and culture, a cradle of civilization spanning thousands of years"📝Khiva occupies a special place as a major center of world civilization and one of the important centers on the Silk Road🐪💖☪️

The most iconic Little Karta is a large blue and white tiled tower in the city center square, which was originally supposed to be a spire. It was built in 1851 by Mohammad Amin Khan but it has not been completed till date 🕊️⚱️

The architectural monuments of Khiva are unique in their architectural style and decorative furniture 👑 There are decorative wood carvings, enamel finishes and symbolic cartouches. I felt like Alice in Wonderland, wandering through the maze of alleys. I strongly recommend that everyone should watch it once in their lifetime‼ ️🕌
