Written by Central Asian expert and experienced travel writer Sophie Ibbotson, who is Uzbekistan’s Tourism Ambassador to the UK, this new, fully updated fourth edition of Bradt’s Uzbekistan remains the definitive practical travel guide to an increasingly liberal destination – Central Asia’s most populous country and the heart of the Silk Road – offering more detail for independent travellers than any other guidebook, sharing first-hand descriptions of everything from UNESCO World Heritage sites and one of the world’s best collections of Soviet avant-garde art, to riding across deserts by camel and cooking plov (lamb pilaf).
A perfect spring or autumn destination, Uzbekistan is unexpectedly packed with diverse experiences, from the Silk Road cities of Bukhara and Khiva to glorious Islamic architecture. Explore the Kyzylkum Desert by camel, ski amid the western Tian Shan mountains, overnight by the Aral Sea to search for the bizarre saiga antelope, visit ancient desert fortresses in Karakalpakstan, or gawp at Registan’s unmissable sound and light show. Stroll through Bukhara’s old town, then take tea at a chaikhana teahouse or shop in the Chorsu Bazaar, trade’s beating heart in Tashkent; or marvel at medieval tiled tombs in Shah-i Zinda and the magnificent 19th-century palace of Kokand ruler Khudayar Khan.
