The Great Silk Road History

Samarkand - the city situated in the very heart of the Great Silk Road - Tamerlane, the great commander of the Middle Ages, started his military campaigns .
For centuries travelers and pilgrims, scholars and explorers journeyed along the caravan roads. The Chinese monk Xuan Zang, the Venetian merchant Marco Polo, the Arabian missionary Akhmad ibn Fadlan and Bavarian warrior Shiltberger, the explorer from Hungary Armin Vamberi and Swedish geographer S. Hedin, Russian scientist Alexey Fedchenko and Swiss journalist Ella Maillart, US geologist Rafael Pampelli and French traveler Joseph Martin - this is but a short list of travelers whose travel notes and scientific proceedings make it possible to learn much about the history of countries lying along the Great Silk Road, the traditions and customs of people inhabiting these countries.
Ancient Uzbek cities such as Samarkand, Bukhara, Khiva, Shakhrisabz, Termez, whose stunning architectural monuments bear the marks of centuries-old history of the Silk Road, are too, the living memory about the peoples who laid this unique overland highway from East to West.
