Weekend Trip in Samarkand – A Journey Through Time 🕌✨

#hellohalloween

If you only have a weekend in Uzbekistan, make it Samarkand — the legendary Silk Road city where history and beauty collide.

📍 Must-See Highlights:

Registan Square – The heart of Samarkand and one of the most stunning plazas in the world. Three majestic madrasahs glowing in blue and gold — especially magical at night!

Shah-i-Zinda Necropolis – A long corridor of sparkling turquoise tombs. It feels like walking through a gemstone.

Gur-e-Amir Mausoleum – Final resting place of Timur (Tamerlane), featuring one of the most beautiful domes in Central Asia.

Bibi-Khanym Mosque – Once one of the largest mosques in the Islamic world — still breathtaking today.

Siab Bazaar – Grab fresh samsa, dried fruits, and traditional sweets while watching daily life unfold.
