Turquoise-tiled domes that stopped Silk Road traders in their tracks for the same reason they stop everyone now, a bazaar still trading spices and silk under the same arches, and bread stamped with a pattern that has not changed in centuries.
The best time to visit Samarkand & the Silk Road is Apr–Jun, Sep–Oct, when typical daytime highs reach about 22°C (71°F).
