Greetings from glorious Uzbekistan, magnificent Samarkand! I was born and lived in Samarkand all my life, except some years in USA, Russia and Tashkent.I had been a journalist for almost 15 years and now enjoying showing guests around Samarkand, Urgut and Shahrisabz.I love telling history to guests and always rely on facts and reliable sources.However, legends and myths of Samarkand are great stories to listen.Samarkand is a cosmopolite city with more than 80 different ethnic groups living together in peace and Harmony One has to live in Samarkand to understand the magic of fusion of cultures."Respect the guest as you respect your father" says the Uzbek proverb.So enjoy the Uzbek hospitality with me.
