"UZBEKISTAN, A JEWEL ON THE SILK ROAD"
The members of the Bosnian expedition "Explorer" Ahmed Bosnić, Enver Imamović, Adi Krdžalić and Sami Abadan stayed in Uzbekistan, a Central Asian country through which the "Silk Road" caravan route once led.
The "Explorer" team previously encountered the "Silk Road" in Nepal, Kashmir, China, Afghanistan, and the visit to Uzbekistan completed that section. Our people know very little about Uzbekistan, because that country was simply absorbed into the Soviet Union and many knew it only superficially. The 'Explorer' expedition was certainly specially prepared for this trip, because it is a nostalgic journey to areas dominated by various peoples and through which many conquerors passed. Let's just remember "Alexander the Macedonian" and "Genghis Khan".
For many, Bukhara and Samarkand are the most beautiful cities in the world, while the whole of Uzbekistan is one big open-air museum. During the past millennia, it was the crossroads of numerous civilizations, especially Islam, and those who ruled Uzbekistan at that time gave this country a special look. There seems to be no country today with such distinct and beautiful Islamic architecture and science, but that is certainly not all that this country has to offer. In recent years, Uzbekistan has opened its doors to tourism, changed many laws to make foreigners feel comfortable and welcome in Uzbekistan.
Many monuments and buildings from the 9th and 10th centuries are still present today and look as if they were just built...
