Samarkand, Bukhara and Khiva — the Silk Road's blue-tiled cities.
What people go to Uzbekistan for
- The Registan in Samarkand, three madrasas facing one square.
- Bukhara's old town, still working around its trading domes.
- The walled inner city of Khiva, walkable end to end in an evening.
- Fast trains linking the Silk Road cities in a couple of hours each.
