A few words about Beknazar and his agency in Uzbekistan:
My name is Beknazar, travel advisor at Voyage in Uzbekistan, a local travel agency in Uzbekistan located in Samarkand, a historic city in the country. After 5 years of studying French at the University of Samarkand and a year of teaching French, I decided to choose the profession of guide. Through my experiences I observed that the tours in Uzbekistan are not varied. This motivated me to create the travel agency in Uzbekistan to help travelers better discover the unusual places of the country as well as its traditions, customs and way of life without forgetting the essentials.
A few words from our expert on the Uzbekistan destination
Tourism in Uzbekistan is an area that is developing very quickly and has enormous potential with its cultural and historical richness, its charming and welcoming population, its unique crafts and its exceptional landscapes. The hospitality, kindness and tolerance of the Uzbeks attract thousands of tourists to the country every year. If you want to feel like you are in the tales of the Arabian Nights, follow the caravan route of the Great Silk Road, welcome to Uzbekistan!
Your advice for visiting Uzbekistan
In Uzbekistan all seasons are beautiful and interesting. The best times to visit Uzbekistan are from April to June when the weather is pleasant, and September-October you will find succulent fruits in abundance at the markets. Summer is best suited for hiking. In winter Uzbekistan is also very beautiful. You can see the monuments of exceptional architecture covered in snow as well as go skiing or snowboarding in the great mountains of Chimgan.
Visit the mythical cities of the Great Silk Road such as Samarkand, Bukhara and Khiva to discover the historical and cultural heritage but also visit typical villages to see the way of life, customs and traditions of the Uzbeks. Favorite places for tourists are historical cities like Samarkand, Bukhara and Khiva. The best dish of Uzbekistan is “Pilaf”, the national Uzbek dish prepared with rice.
The key personality is Oulougbek, a great Uzbek astronomer and scholar of the 15th century, creator of the world’s first observatory in Samarkand, favorite grandson of Amir Timur who was a great conqueror of the 14th century. The cultural elements that I prefer are the national holiday of Navrouz which is celebrated on March 21 and Uzbek weddings.
The crafts of Uzbekistan are very rich and varied, but the souvenirs to absolutely bring back from this country are the terracotta statuettes and silk scarves.
