Bukhara is already over two thousand years old, making this a rich city full of sights to explore for two days. The first day is all about the ancient city center. From Lyabi-Hauz, where the curves of the surrounding madrassas and a khanaka are echoed in the gracefully bending trees, to the Kalyan Minaret, which at 47 m (155 ft), which dominates the skyline, Bukhara is full of treasures. Head out of the city on the second day, with a tour of the luxurious summer residence of Bukhara’s last emir, and final stops at the Chor-Bakr Necropolis and the mausoleum of Bahouddin Naqshbandi, founder of a famous Sufi order. For those looking for a truly historical trip, two days in Bukhara is the best tour.
