Silk road: Uzbekistan, the magic of a fantastic place.
The Golden Age University (Free University of Lombardy/Unigold), in collaboration with the European Foundation Dragan and the Unesco Center of Milan organized on February 19th a conference on the cities of the silk road: Samarkand and Bukhara.

Reported Roberto Cossu, orientalist, accompanied by a beautiful photographic service edited by Astrid Angehrn.

Bukhara has been for centuries one of the main cities of the Transoxiana and still preserves some impressive monuments like the famous Lyab-i Hauz ensemble (caravanserai) with the two religious edifices built by Nadir Divan-Begi around 1620 CE: the Sufi khanqah or lodging house and place for meetings for itinerant mystics sufis, and the madrasa or religious school.
