Reasons To
Visit Uzbekistan

  • Architecture

    Crumbing archaeological ruins, imposing Islamic monuments and stark Soviet buildings sit alongside one another in Uzbekistan, a constant reminder of the nation’s chequered and indeed lengthy history.

  • Culture

    Uzbekistan is a Muslim country, but there is a distinctly Russian influence as well. Mosques and local dress contribute to the Central Asian feel, while at night the vodka flows in the local restaurants.

    Culture
  • History

    Uzbekistan's history is dominated by five conquerors, including Alexander the Great and the unstoppable Genghis Khan. Islam took root, slowly, and Soviet rule dominated, oppressively.

  • Markets

    The bazaars and markets of Uzbekistan are vibrant, raucous and exciting, with the national pastime of haggling employed with great vigour. Start low and enjoy the banter!

  • Silk Route cities

    The names of Khiva, Bukhara and Samarkand inspire today the same excitement and allure as they have done to Silk Road travellers for hundreds of years.

Accommodation in Uzbekistan: Hotel Bek

Our Rating: Medium

Hotel Bek

Tashkent

This little gem of a hotel is a great option for those who want the comfort of a big international hotel but not the other people. There are only 23 rooms here, all with comfortable beds and tastefully furnished, and the city centre is a short metro ride away.

The owner named the hotel after his son, who often mans the reception desk, and the pair are easy going and keen to provide cosy hospitality in the middle of what can seem a sprawling city.
