I liked the walk through Samarkand, although with so much history behind, a summit in front, the city kept a quiet air. And the accommodation and breakfast seemed special to me. I really like the Uzbekistan series.
I'm just back from a trip to Uzbekistan - visited Bukhara, Samarkand and Tashkent. Yes, there's an actual tourist strip between the markets and the Bibikhanum down to the Registan. There's a facade along it that seems to hide the real city, but I found one of the doors was open so went exploring. Nice to see real people, household chores, children playing, walked past a school with classes in progress. I was obviously not a local, but still most people smiled and said hello. And, yes, I was fascinated that almost every car in Uzbekistan is a Chevrolet.
Such an amazing country, isn't it? I love how friendly and hospitable the locals are. Of course, as it's the first time in Uzbekistan, I visit a lot of the touristy sights, too. They are famous for a reason, right? But it's always cool to simply interact with people, learn more than you possibly do from history books or tourist guides. After Samarkand I will visit Khiva and then go to Karkalpakstan for more "off the beaten path" adventures as well. Hope you'll tag along 😊 What were your favourite parts, cities, sights or things you've experienced during your stay?
@@WhereDoWeTravelNow Wow, you seem to be really immersing yourself in the country. I was only there for a week, a couple of days in each of the main cities. The architecture was of course impressive. In Samarkand, I think the mausoleum complex was a highlight for me, but I also liked the markets which are just on the other side of the motorway. Bukhara was my first stop and I stayed right next to the Kalon Minaret and Registan, it's a smaller city but still has lots to see, and I think I enjoyed it more than Samarkand. Tashkent was last for me, and I'd like to go back because I don't think I had enough time there. Loved the metro of course, and also the Chorsu Bazaar - just for the experience. But for me it was the locals. I'm a tall Australian, so I was never going to blend in the way I can in Europe. A couple of people, with better English, were genuinely welcoming and helpful. Most people were initially suspicious, and mainly asked "which country" and when I say "Australia" the response is always "kangaroo!" with a big smile, before wishing me a good stay in their country.
Wow, the breakfast looked fit for a king! And the room in which it was served seemed from another time... in fact, the whole hotel is decorated with a lot of style and charm! I also found the neighborhood that you discovered perhaps thanks to the summit very nice and peaceful! I hope you get to taste some bread while in Samarkand! 🍊🫓
The breakfast and the chamber it was served in were definitely my favourites! Very instagramable too 😋 The Samarkand bread is pretty good, that I can tell. It's cool how they prepare it in those ovens as well, but unfortunately I don't have it on camera.

I'm very happy you are enjoying the Uzbek series, it will last for some more weeks, that's for sure. The breakfast room was my absolute favourite 😍🇺🇿

Welcome to Sunny Uzbekistan
Thank you so much! Love this country! 🤩🇺🇿
Great coming along for your walk. So glad the guards did not lock you up. We noticed how clean the city was.
Thank you for joining me! Yes, it is very nice and clean almost everywhere you look. One of my favourite places in Uzbekistan 🥰🇺🇿
Wonderful place and the food looks delicious. 👌
Oh yeah, I loved it, too. Looked good, tasted good 😊😋
It is not orange. It is persimmon.
Thank you so much for the info. I've never heard of this fruit. I actually had to google it 😅 Cheers, hope you enjoyed the video 🇺🇿🇺🇿🇺🇿
The oranges(citrus) are not able to grow up in Uzbekistan. Persimmon is Japanese fruit. Welcome to Uzbekistan
Learning new things every day. Thank you, mate!
