About Bukhara, Uzbekistan: how to visit

Bukhara’s old town has kept its layout for centuries: narrow lanes, covered trading domes and a pool shaded by mulberry trees at Lyab-i Hauz. The Ark fortress and the Kalyan Minaret anchor the skyline.

It is a city to walk slowly, with time for tea houses and craft workshops. Two nights are ideal.
