  • Bukharan and Russian Monarchies in the Inter-Revolutionary Period
    The Last Days of the Emir: Bukharan and Russian Monarchies in the Inter-Revolutionary Period By Casey E. Smith A Study Presented to the Faculty of Wheaton College In Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for Graduation with Departmental Honors In Russian Studies Norton, Massachusetts May 10, 2020 2 Introduction Russia and Bukhara in the Early Twentieth Century In Western European travelogues of journeys to the Emirate of Bukhara, one of the more frequently mentioned landmarks of the city of Bukhara is the one hundred fifty foot tall Kalyan minaret in its center, from which the last Emirs of the Manghit Dynasty hurled prisoners to their death. After the decree of Bukhara as a protectorate of the Russian Empire in 1873, the despotism of the last emirs was widely evaluated by the literature of Western travel authors, Russian bureaucrats, and Bukharan reformists alike. Meanwhile, in 1906 Nicholas II read his statements to the First State Duma, decreeing that he would still maintain his autocratic power despite the attempts at democracy the Duma embodied. Ironically, the parliament —established after strikes and peasant uprisings— sat in the glittering halls of Russia’s grand Tauride palace. While Emir Mohammed Alim Khan witnessed the destruction of the Emirate at the hands of both Russian imperialists and reformers within the Emirate, Nicholas II faced a similar threat of complete delegitimization of his power. In the early years of the twentieth century, the Russian Empire consisted of most of its modern day territory as well as modern-day Finland, and the Central Asian lands as far as Afghanistan and modern-day Iran.

  • An Experience in Uzbekistan Why Uzbekistan?
    17-22 SEPTEMBER 2019 En Silk Route AN EXPERIENCE IN UZBEKISTAN Why Uzbekistan? When Vajor Experiences had set out to create bespoke experiences for an evolved wanderer, Uzbekistan was on our Wishlist. It combines everything that makes for a fan-favorite in the travel space. Incredible architecture from the Silk Route..A mixture of fascinating Soviet, Islamic and Asian cultures and histories. An underrated food scene and an Untapped natural beauty from deserts to lush mountain areas. And most importantly a mystic bohemian vibe, which perfectly blends with Vajor as a key brand element. The week long trail in Uzbekistan takes us through a gamut of experiences over stories, DIY’s , tastings and much more to give you a first hand experience of how This area once was and till today remains elusive to travellers. The then and now of Uzbekistan with #vajorExperience. The history of the Silk Road goes as far back as 138 BC when China opened its borders. Over centuries, traders, missionaries and conquerors travelled from Asia to Europe through Uzbekistan and brought with them new cultures, religions and crafts, traces of which still exist. If you’re intrigued by the ancient Silk Road but don’t have the time to travel its length from China to Turkey, you’ll find two of the route’s most important cities in Uzbekistan. Bukhara and Samarkand were key stop-offs for traders, and have all been painstakingly restored to their former glory – think glittering minarets, voluptuous domes and hypnotic mosaics. Silk Route trade didn’t stop at silk. Goods, from spices and teas, salt and sugar, to ceramics, ivory, jewels and furs, were shuttled back and forth as countries discovered new items produced in far- away lands.
