Summary/Abstract: The desert country of Uzbekistan is most vividly associated with the Silk Road, with three UNESCO-listed medieval towns that were all visiting points on this route. If it were not for the closed political system, the country has the potential to be a strong tourist destination, with ancient sights that have been extensively and meticulously renovated.
