Khiva City Walls

Journey to a part of the world that for centuries formed

part of the greatest trading route ever known, the Silk Road that carried riches from China to Europe, along which great cities of culture and learning, trading and astonishing craftsmanship rivalled any in history, and across which nomadic peoples, great caravans and above all the armies of warrior Tamerlane once roamed.
