To save her life and all the lives od other women of the palace, every evening, and until dawn, the splendid princess Sherazad weaves a long web of stories linked to each other, never ending to entertain the sovereign her husband, wisely interrupting the tale at sunrise. Enraptured by the magic of the narration and the charm of the woman, the sultan will forget the reasons for his anger and will cancel the sentence. Who among us has never been fascinated by the fantastic and overwhelming tales of “The Thousand and One Nights” and its characters?
And if we propose you a journey during which you will be immersed in the magical atmosphere of these millenary stories, but even more in the flow of the ocean of real history, of commercial and cultural exchanges that for centuries have given birth to a flourishing civilization along the Silk Road?
Perhaps it is not a classic wellness holiday, like the ones we usually offer, but a trip to Uzbekistan is a dip in magic and in the past, creating great wellness experiences and emotions like those of a yoga retreat or a midfulness retreat.
Its cities were a fundamental stop on the trade route of the Silk Road between the West and the East, as well as important centers of religious and cultural studies that have contributed to the development of the whole of humanity.
Getting lost in the ancient alleys of the citadel of Khiva, Boukhara, Samarkand, being entranced by the magnificence and beauty of their mosques and their madrassas and bazaars is a unique travel experience. In fact, it would be belittling to think of the Silk Road only as an itinerary traveled by merchants to sell their fabrics or their jewels. In fact, together with merchants and goods, something much more transcendent and important was traveling: knowledge.
And I think the same concept applies to travel: not merely visiting places, but creating human bridges first and then cultural ones. Meeting of differences, knowledge that creates peace.
And so the legendary names of cities such as Samarkand, Bukhara and Khiva evoke the magic of journeys that have also transported the progress of humanity.
Do you want to get excited in front of the Tuchese and blue domes and majolica, entering the caravanserais or listening to the litanies of prayers? Do you want to enjoy the wellness experience of the ancient Hammam of Bukhara? We will visit Registon Square (15th-17th century) and the madrasah of Ulugbek, Tillakori and Sherdor. This place was one of the most important international trade centers on the Great Silk Road which connected Europe to China. The Registan, will fascinate you with the grandeur and beauty of its historical monuments
