Late spring or early summer 2010 I visited Uzbekistan on the silk road. It felt like having gone on a time machine back to the 17th century. Of the three historical cities, I visited two, Bukhara being the one that surprised me most. The people were super friendly. The Soviets did a very aggressive and impressive restoration of the historical mosques and sites of interest. Albracca chashma ayub citadel
