Unreal UZBEKISTAN STREET FOOD of Your Dreams + Traveling from Shahrisabz to Termez | Uzbekistan
After spending less than a day in the UNESCO World Heritage city of Shahrisabz, I was on to my next destination in Uzbekistan! Come along with me as I travel from Shahrisabz to Termez and enjoy some unreal Uzbekistan food on the way!
My next adventure in Uzbekistan would take me 5 hours south of Shahrisabz to the town of Termez near the Uzbekistan-Afghanistan border. It’s in the hottest region of the country near Turkmenistan and Tajikistan. I couldn’t wait to travel this road and try some food!
The only way to get there is by taxi. Luckily, it’s super affordable and would only cost me about $40-$50 USD.
Just 25 minutes outside of Shahrisabz, the road was very bumpy. My driver didn’t speak English, but we connected through laughter! The land we traveled through was fertile. Along the road, we could see donkeys, horses, dogs, goats, and cows, as well as men selling watermelon.
I was getting hungry, but luckily, the road got a lot smoother. It was perfectly paved. The vegetation along the road changed – we had some trees now. It felt like a whole different place.
It was just after 8 a.m., so we looked for some food. We found a tiny town where we could get some food. They had some big, round, and dense somsas and a tomato broth. The somsa was filled with beef and onions. It was also baked to perfection! It didn’t contain many spices. The outside was crunchy, while the dough inside was nice and soft.
The somsa is different from Indian samosas and Latin-American empanadas, but they’re so good. I don’t usually like eating lots of onions, but this was delicious! Then, I added some liquid.
I thought I was only going to have the somsa, but then they brought us an incredible tomato salad with cucumbers and onions. It was really nice and had a creamy, cheesy dressing on it. Uzbekistan has the best tomatoes in the world! We also had some water and some really nice green tea.
Then, my taxi driver ordered a huge beef dish with onions. It contained liver as well! I made a liver sandwich with some bread. My driver fed me some of the liquid in the salad and then added it to the sandwich. So good!
The beef was meaty and fatty and was such an incredible breakfast! I loved the tea as well!
With my belly full, we hopped back on the road. We had 3 hours to go. We passed through a small town with a market. I was loving the road trip. This is my favorite thing about traveling. You get to experience the country, interact with locals, and feel the culture. It’s much better than taking a flight or train.
We stopped at a gas station of sorts, but I couldn’t really understand what they were doing. It was scorching out, by the way. The sun was brutal!
With 30 minutes left, we hit the road again! I couldn’t wait to explore the attractions in Termez. There are lots of historical and archaeological sites down there. I wasn’t sure how I’d explore in the unbearable heat, though.
After 5 hours, we arrived in Termez. While we looked for the people from the tourism board I’d be meeting with, I took in the sights of Termez. It was very green and had lots of wide streets. The older buildings looked very Soviet. The architectural style looked similar to what I’d seen in Moldova, which was also a part of the Soviet Union. We found my guide and then we headed toward the Silk Road Termez Hotel.
We arrived at the hotel. My room was huge and had a king-sized bed and a nice seating area. They gave me lots of water and I had a really nice bathroom with a huge tub!
I hope you enjoyed traveling from Shahrisabz to Termez and having some unreal Uzbekistan food with me! If you did, please give this video a thumbs up and leave a comment below.

Uzbekistan FOOD HEAVEN Near Afghan Border + Historic Sites Tour | Termez, Uzbekistan
After a five-hour taxi ride from Shahrisabz, I had finally arrived in Termez, the southernmost city in Uzbekistan. Come along with me as I dive into Uzbekistan food heaven near the Afghan border and explore the ancient sites in Termez!
FEATURED:
Otabek:
I started at Rich Restaurant, where I met my guide for the day, Otabek. The restaurant had a huge dining hall, but we ate in a private one. Our feast included lamb kebabs, soup, five salads, bread, and wine. The wine was really fruity, like cherries!
I started with the juicy and tender lamb kebab, which had a nice charcoal crust. It also had some tasty, gelatinous fat! They had the right amount of salt on them.
Next was mastava, a traditional beef, carrot, potato, tomato, and rice soup. The broth was really nice and I loved the contrast of textures!
Then, I tried the sour cream with some dense bread. It was more like sour yogurt or a thick, Indian buttermilk.
My first salad contained fresh peas, cheese, cucumbers, olives, and tomatoes. The next one was a common one that’s similar to Greek salad. The cheese in it was dense, almost like manchego. Then, I tried a tasty soy-sauce-based salad with tomatoes, cucumbers, sesame seeds and beef. My favorite salad contained buttery wild mushrooms, green onions, beef, and light dressing.
Next was fried, fatty lamb, which wasn’t too deep-fried. The lamb in Uzbekistan rivals the lamb in Greece! Then, I had some delicious mountain tea.
After my meal, we headed to an ancient Buddhist monastery called Fayaz-Tepe, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that dates back to the 3rd century BC. The watcher opened the gate and let us crawl inside the stupa. Inside is the original mud stupa. The outer one was built to protect it.
Also on the grounds are ruins of the dormitories and the kitchen. There were pillars lining a central courtyard. I could also see rooms. The ruins were very weathered. Each room has holes in the walls for a Buddha statue to pray to. There’s also a sauna!
They used to bring water using mud pipes from the river to use in the complex. This site was discovered in 1968 by a shepherd and then unearthed by the Soviet government. Unfortunately, the site is deteriorating.
Next, we headed to Kara-Tepe, another Buddhist monastery. This site is partly covered by a tent. It has really big rooms and high walls. Under the covered part is the stupa where they’d pray to Buddha. There’s also a terrace, but I couldn’t see any pillars. The walls crumble at the slightest touch. I could also see the river and Afghanistan from there! We were also the only ones there.
We drove for 2 minutes and passed through a Silk Road gate where they would cross over from Afghanistan. It’s now used as a customs gate and has walls that had to have been restored. It reminded me of fortifications I had seen in Europe. Unfortunately, some people had vandalized it with graffiti.
Our next site, Al Hakim At-Termezi, used to be a mosque, but now it’s just a monument surrounded by a beautiful garden. The mausoleum of Al Hakim At-Termezi is also there. He was one of the most important figures in Islamic history.
There are graves from the 17th-19th centuries outside. The mausoleum was built from the 10th-15th centuries. Inside, the walls are white marble and have intricate gold and blue designs and writing from the Koran on them. The tomb itself is quite big and is wider than others I had seen.
Outside is a cave system where people pray. It’s at least 20 or 30 degrees cooler there!
I hope you enjoyed experiencing Uzbekistan food heaven and going on a historical tour of Termez with me! If you did, please give this video a thumbs up and leave a comment. Also, please subscribe to my YouTube channel so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food adventures!

Shahrisabz, Uzbekistan Full Tour: Timur's (Tamerlane) Palace & City
Welcome to the mountainous city of Shahrisabz, Uzbekistan. This is the birthplace of Amir Timur (Tamerlan) and the location of his palace where he was supposed to be buried. This is a full uncut tour of some of the beautiful monuments I saw there and the interesting city I saw. I did not add any music or much editing as I thought you should see the most authentic side of Uzbekistan in all it's glory. It was definitely a unique city and a cool undercover spot to see in this magnificent city.

From Shahrisabz to Samarkand - Uzbekistan 4K Travel Channel
The route back to Samarkand is the same as the one we came over. After leaving the houses of Shahrisabz behind us, the landscape is immediately brown and dry. Then the road climbs up the Zarafshan Range. On the slopes, we see scattered huge boulders.
At the top, we make a short stop at a fruit and spice market. The offered goods look good. Unfortunately, we have no need for them on our trip.
From here we have a beautiful view over the valley towards Samarkand.
Arrived in Samarkand we drive directly to our hotel.

please read more:
Die Route zurück nach Samarkand ist identisch mit der über die wir gekommen sind. Nachdem wir die Häuser von Shahrisabz hinter uns gelassen haben, ist die Landschaft sofort braun und trocken. Danach steigt die Straße die Serafschankette hinauf. Die Hänge sind von riesigen Felsbrocken übersät.
Oben angekommen machen wir bei einem Frucht- und Gewürzmarkt einen kurzen Halt. Die angebotenen Waren sehen gut aus, Leider haben wir auf unserer Reise aber keinen Bedarf dafür.
Von hier aus hat man einen sehr schönen Ausblick auf das Tal in Richtung Samarkand.
Dort angekommen fahren wir direkt in unser Hotel.

UZBEKISTAN TRAVEL GUIDE. Best Places to Visit in UZBEKISTAN | TOP 33 part 2
Hi friends. This video about UZBEKISTAN. See more on same playlist.

Uzbekistan (UK: /ʊzˌbɛkɪˈstɑːn, ʌz-, -ˈstæn/, US: /ʊzˈbɛkɪstæn, -stɑːn/;[11][12] Uzbek: Oʻzbekiston pronounced [ozbekiˈstɒn]), officially Republic of Uzbekistan (Uzbek: Oʻzbekiston Respublikasi), is a country in Central Asia. It is bordered by five landlocked countries: Kazakhstan to the north; Kyrgyzstan to the northeast; Tajikistan to the southeast; Afghanistan to the south; and Turkmenistan to the southwest. Along with Liechtenstein, it is one of only two doubly landlocked countries.
As a sovereign state, Uzbekistan is a secular, unitary constitutional republic. It comprises 12 provinces and one autonomous republic. The capital and largest city of Uzbekistan is Tashkent.
What is now Uzbekistan was in ancient times part of the Iranian-speaking region of Transoxiana and Turan. The first recorded settlers were Eastern Iranian nomads, known as Scythians, who founded kingdoms in Khwarezm (8th–6th centuries BC), Bactria (8th–6th centuries BC), Sogdia (8th–6th centuries BC), Fergana (3rd century BC – 6th century AD), and Margiana (3rd century BC – 6th century AD). The area was incorporated into the Iranian Achaemenid Empire and, after a period of Macedonian Greek rule, was ruled by the Iranian Parthian Empire and later by the Sasanian Empire, until the Arab conquest of Iran in the 7th century. The Muslim conquest in the 7th century converted the majority of the population, including the local ruling classes, into adherents of Islam. During this period, cities such as Samarkand, Khiva and Bukhara began to grow rich from the Silk Road, and witnessed the emergence of leading figures of the Islamic Golden Age, including Muhammad al-Bukhari, Al-Tirmidhi,al-Biruni, and Avicenna. The local Khwarezmian dynasty, and Central Asia as a whole, were decimated by the Mongol invasion in the 13th century. After the Mongol Conquests, the area became increasingly dominated by Turkic peoples. The city of Shahrisabz was the birthplace of the Turco-Mongol conqueror Tamerlane (Timur), who in the 14th century established the Timurid Empire and was proclaimed the Supreme Emir of Turan with his capital in Samarkand, which became a world centre of science under the rule of Ulugh Beg, giving birth to the Timurid Renaissance. The territories of the Timurid dynasty were conquered by Uzbek Shaybanids in the 16th century, moving the centre of power from Samarkand to Bukhara. The region was split into three states: Khanate of Khiva, Khanate of Kokand, and Emirate of Bukhara. Conquests by Emperor Babur towards the East led the foundation of India's proto-industrialised Mughal Empire. It was gradually incorporated into the Russian Empire during the 19th century, with Tashkent becoming the political center of Russian Turkestan. In 1924, after national delimitation, the constituent republic of the Soviet Union known as the Uzbek Soviet Socialist Republic was created. Following the break-up of the Soviet Union, it declared independence as the Republic of Uzbekistan on 31 August 1991.
