Day 1: Marvels of the Old City
It's best to make sure the breakfast is included in the hotel room, as choice for early morning meals are pretty limited in the city.
Start your day with discovering the grandeur of Timur's empire at this vast mosque. The massive entrance portal and turquoise domes are awe-inspiring.
