Accommodation In Samarkand
For centuries, Samarkand played a vital role in facilitating trade between China and countries in the West. Located in the central Asian republic of Uzbekistan, Samarkand is a UNESCO World Heritage site and offers travellers a peek at the famed Silk Road along with the conveniences of a modern city.
Things to do in Samarkand
The centrepiece of the city is the Registan, a collection of three well-preserved medieval madrasas (Islamic schools) that served as Samarkand's public square. Today, it's one of the more popular locales for visitors staying in Samarkand hotels, who can take an escorted trip to the top of a minaret and view ornate mosaics. Located near the centre of the city, you'll find the Gur-E-Amir mausoleum, a blue-domed structure that is home to the crypt of Timur, a powerful Muslim ruler. Also visit the Bibi-Khanym Mosque, a grand monument commissioned by Timur that serves to embody the Islamic architectural style of the 15th century. As you’re walking around, snag the signature Uzbek dish of pavlov (pilaf) from a local vendor and also be sure to taste shurpa, which is a tasty mutton soup.
Getting to & Around Samarkand
Flights to Samarkand land at Samarkand International Airport, located 3 kilometres northeast of the city centre. To get to the downtown hotels in Samarkand, take a taxi or bus. Another travel option is to begin your Samarkand holiday with a flight into Tashkent, the other major Uzbek city. From there, board a high-speed train to Samarkand that covers the 344 kilometre route in roughly two hours.
Regardless of where you choose to land, Wotif can help you find a flight and the perfect Samarkand accommodation for your needs. See where East once met West on the Silk Road by booking one of our affordable hotel and airfare packages to this ancient city today.
