“Samarkand – Crossroad of Cultures” is the official moniker used to describe this city as a UNESCO World Heritage site.  Samarkand conjures up images of ancient times and sounds almost mythical.  However, this is no fairytale: Samarkand today is a lively city that cherishes its traditions.  Archaeological excavations have revealed a history which dates back 3500 years; the town of Afrosiab was founded in the 7th century BC.  The area was continuously inhabited and served as a melting pot of diverse cultures.
