Hear from a local for an authentic cultural adventure you’ll never forget!

Every year in late May or early June, Bukhara—one of the most ancient Silk Road cities—hosts the Silk and Spices Festival. This vibrant two-day event features over 200 artisans from across Uzbekistan and beyond, including Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Iran, and Russia. Visitors can explore a colorful array of ceramics, jewelry, traditional foods, and of course, silk and spices.

About an hour’s drive away from Tashkent is the MSA Resort and Family Winery—set to open this fall. Backed by the government, the project aims to become a new destination for nature lovers, culinary tourists, and those eager to experience Uzbekistan’s rural culture.

The Tashkent Metro is more than a convenient way of traveling around the city; it’s a subterranean adventure through grand chandeliers, intricate mosacis, and Soviet-era history.
