Since the beginning of the year, the tourism potential of Uzbekistan has already been recognized in several world-famous magazines and Internet portals! Among them are The Times - a daily newspaper in the UK, one of the most famous newspapers in the world, British Muslim Magazine - the leading British magazine about the Muslim lifestyle, and TIME - a weekly and one of the most popular magazines in the USA.
“Walking an ancient path” – this is how the most popular magazine of the New World writes about Uzbekistan, which included the historical places of the Silk Road of our country. According to the magazine, Uzbekistan has benefited from several factors, such as the “Afrosiyob” high-speed train network, as well as the new airport terminal in Samarkand, which resembles an open book. The opening of the new terminal greatly simplifies trips to UNESCO World Heritage sites from the capital Tashkent to the historical cities of Khiva, Bukhara, Samarkand.
It is also worth noting that the most important factor for the publication was the opening of the Samarkand tourist center "Silk Road", located on 640 acres and including the Samarkand rowing canal. Already this autumn, the first literary festival "Silk Road" will be held on its territory.
In addition to Uzbekistan, the list includes such famous places in the world as the Great Barrier Reef, the Galapagos Islands, Seoul, Marseille, Toronto, Copenhagen and others.

The popular British Muslim Magazine previously published an article about the history and culture of the Silk Road cities of Uzbekistan. The publication covered such ancient cities as Samarkand, Bukhara and Khiva.
“If you’re interested in the Silk Road, Uzbekistan is the ideal place to explore some of its most important cities. Bukhara, Samarkand, and Khiva were three of the main pitstop cities for traders with all three retaining much of their splendor from that time. But Silk Road influence is not the only thing visitors will find in Uzbekistan.
Steeped in history, Bukhara was mostly associated with knowledge, learning and scholars. During the Golden Age, the city of Bukhara reached its peak by producing scholars such as Imam al-Bukhari – a familiar name for Muslims around the world!
With Samarkand part of the UNESCO World Heritage List, the city attracts the masses who come here to appreciate the grand architecture, unique culture, and rich history.
Khiva was regarded as one of the most important cities and trade hubs along the Silk Road. Although it is the least visited of all three major Silk Road cities, visitors that come here leave with unforgettable memories.” - this is how the author describes our country in his blog.
“They were founded when the Silk Road was at the peak of its power and prosperity, but these ancient cities have stood the test of time” - the Times magazine inspires its readers with these words.
The article details 8 of the best stops on the Silk Road. Among them are Khiva, Xian (China), Merv (Turkmenistan), Samarkand, Ashgabat (Turkmenistan), Tehran (Iran), Bukhara and Almaty. The author very elegantly and elegantly describes Uzbekistan, attracting readers to various interesting tourist programs in the historical cities of the Silk Road not only of our republic, but also of neighboring states.
