Along the great silk road




___________________________________________________________________________________________________


We spent 10 days in a classic tour of Uzbekistan beauties starting in Tashkent then Khiva, Boukhara, Samarkand and back to Tashkent.
This gallery is dedicated to wonderful Uzbek people who warmly welcomed us everywhere,
to our companions Laurence, Bernadette and Arsene and to our guide Khourchid.
Closed gallery April 2008.
Press F11 for full screen vision.
