История 🏺
The southernmost city and administrative centre of the Surkhandarya region is Termez. In this city and in its area, there are still many historical sights associated with various religions, such as Zoroastrianism, Nestorianism, Buddhism and Islam.
According to the archaeologists, the city was created in the I millennium BC, which makes it one of the oldest cities in the world. The name "Termez" comes from the word "Taramastakh", which translates as "a place on the opposite bank" and it received its final name only in the X century. Prior to this, the city changed many names, such as Demitrias, Antioch, Tamo, Tami, etc. It is believed that Buddhism came to the territory of Termez during the Greco-Bactrian Empire. This is confirmed by many finds of archaeologists belonging to that era. You can still find Buddhist buildings in the city and its environs, and in museums there are many objects related to this ancient religion. Over the millennia of its existence, the city was ruled by many dynasties, among which were the Achaemenids, Alexander the Great, the Kushan Empire and many others. During the time of Amir Temur and his descendants, Termez occupied a special place in the diplomatic relations with China.
