Uzbekistan

Uzbekistan sits at the heart of Central Asia, a landlocked country where desert flatlands give way to mountain foothills and ancient Silk Road cities rise from the dust. The call to prayer echoes across turquoise-tiled domes, and bazaars overflow with dried fruit, spices, and handwoven silk.

Uzbekistan borders Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan, and Turkmenistan. The capital is Tashkent, the largest city in Central Asia. Uzbek is the official language, though Russian remains widely spoken. The currency is the Uzbekistani som. Culturally, the country blends Turkic and Persian heritage with a Soviet-era urban layer that is still visible in architecture and infrastructure.
