 Hello friends today we went ancient and eternal bukhara. Bukhara, celebrated for its 2,500 years of history in 1997, ranks among the world's most ancient cities. Once a significant stop on the Great Silk Road, this city wasn't just a hub for international trade but also a resting point for caravans before their desert journey. Since 1993, its historically rich center, boasting numerous landmarks, has been recognized on the UNESCO World Heritage List.


More than just a tourist attraction, Bukhara holds religious significance for Muslims globally and has been dubbed the "Central Asian Mecca" for centuries. The city is dotted with holy shrines and had the honor of being the cultural capital of the Islamic world in 2020. The diverse population ranges from Uzbeks to the unique community of Bukhara Jews, whose presence in the city can be traced back to the 5th century BC. While many have migrated to Israel, a few remain, often speaking an intriguing blend of Jewish and Tajik languages.
