Uzbekistan has the best food out of the stans and is pretty cheap. Visit Samarkand and if time permits, lake Aral.

I have been to Uzbekistan last summer. It is a rather cheap country overall, both in terms of accomodation and in terms of general expenses (food, transportation, etc.). In general, I would say that Uzbekistan is a pretty good entry-level, beginner friendly country for travelers. It has plenty of sights, mostly related to its three main historic cities, Samarkand, Bukhara and Khiva, all of which have beautiful sights and monuments, with some nature and other places added in for bonus (Aral Sea, desert fortresses of Karakalpakstan, and Ugam-Chatkal nat'l park being among them). Geographically the country is essentially one big string of cities with deserts on both sides, so it's very easy to see all the main sights together in a linear trip that starts in the capital Tashkent and ends in Khiva (or potentially Nukus if you want to see Karakalpakstan). The country is also generally very tourist friendly - it's easy to find western standards hotels and guesthouses, booking trains is quick and hassle-free, people are generally very welcoming towards foreigners (their government, which is essentially a dictatorship, is heavily investing in the tourism industry, and I heavily suspect that is playing a role). Hygiene standards can be iffy, so it's very likely you'll get diarrhea - just accept it and take the usual precautions. (1/2)

Most boring country I've ever been in my life. It almost has a Southern European vibe though which is nice. Lots of really old White tourists visiting. The place BORING af. Every fucking town has the same attractions. Ancient silk road structures. Did you like seeing old buildings in that last town? Because you're gonna love the next town, it has the same shit. Then if you go from that town to the next town, you'll see the exact same shit again. If you're an archeologist then it's good I guess. But a normal person has no profound interest in silk road buildings. Fucking hell. Couldn't wait to leave

I've been there last month. I enjoyed it. Though i mostly only go to the touristy part of the country. I really want to go back there someday because i feel like i barely scratched the surface of the country's charm.

Well well, I figured there would be an active Central Asia thread on /trv/ somewhere, given how contrarian anons can be lol…I am a 31 yo PhD student from burgerland, and I have just moved to Uzbekistan to teach English classes for a while. I needed a change of pace in my life, drift of purpose, I’m a literal sperg about researching Persianate/Islamic civilizations in my spare time, probably many of the other reasons you can imagine I came here.I’ll put on a trip, and I can bump the thread from time to time with some reports of things, and try to answer any questions you might have.

I'm in Azerbaijan right now, Baku is very rich, cosmopolitan, cheap,they like white dudes. Lots of nice parks and public spaces. Seems like they spend their oil wealth on infrastructure. Lots of young happy people everywhere

I've been to Uzbekistan last summer doing Bukhara, Samarkand and Tashkent. Price-wise super cheap. Food (especially fruit) is unbelievable and the people are super friendly. Train network works well and are comfy if you take the fast trains between main cities. Safety was good. Safer than some of the Euro cities. Also, expect to ride an ungodly amount of Chevrolets with proverbial bombs in the trunk. Great fun. >Bukhara A jewel in the desert. Try staying in or close to the old part of town. Fantastic scenery, chillest of vibes and very walkable. Easily most affordable of all 3 cities. >Samarkand Spectacular architecture and history, if that's your thing. Busy but kinda laid back. Worth geting a local guide for a private tour. If you're lucky you might catch a light show at Registan in the evening. The bazaar is a bit of a meme but 10x better than the one in Tashkent. >Tashkent Modern city vibe that honestly wasn't that impressive beyond the Tashkent City skyline. Prices are significantly more expensive than in Samarkand and Bukhara and people were a bit more reserved. Truth be told, if I were to plan it again I'd probably cut a few days Tashkent and go to Khiva.

Everything else is BS. You're not fooling anyone posturing that u want to go look at some roads, fields, trees, and buildings and eat some variation of cereal crops, vegetables and meat. If you don't quicky start talking about how to get geo-monger cock inside Uzbek vag then you will be auto-fucked off to reddit.

I been to 40 countries, Uzbekistan is by far my top 3 alongside Greece and Thailand.The architecture, the food, the atmosphere, the prices… amazing.Best part is- as a white man, you kind of fit in, there’s a lot of white looking Uzbeks that you can get away with not being harassed.Make sure you use Yandex app for taxi/uber there, otherwise the taxi drivers will rip you offAlso if you have the funds- pay extra for a good train ticket between cities, otherwise you will get some shitty bunk bed crammed into the back of the train
