4.00Museum is a must-see destination for anyone traveling to see the landmarks of the Silk Road, featuring the 7th century Quran, manuscripts, mosaics, and artifacts from all parts of Uzbekistan. The lunch included traditional flatbread, tomato salad and plov, that unfortunately was slightly undercooked.
An exceptional cultural and gastronomic experience

5.00Amazing experience with Shakhrizod from Tourmania. It was a seamless experience as he was came earlier with the ticket to the Islamic Civilization Center and even accompany me inside. He waited for me at the exit when my tour ended and brought me to a traditional Uzbek restaurant serving scrumptious plov. He even brought me to the Bazaar and dropped me at the metro for my journey back to the hotel. The Islamic Civilisation Centre itself was amazing. One of the best that I have been. Highly recommended!
