Swingaling dare say you are the envy of some of us ! Going to exotic places. Your photos are very sharp and capture details.

Also Samarkand brought back childhood memories of stories of Arabian Nights and Aladdin genres. Tashkent reminds me of the Indian Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri who died there of a heart attack after a Peace Conference with Pakistan !
Funny, Registan also mean a desert in Urdu/Hindi.

While you were on a mission of visitng highlight, it might be more informative for many of us to see some local color, life, daily life etc.
