  • 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.
