A wonderful historical and archaeological complex. It is better to come directly to the museum and start the tour from it - the entire history of the region is described in an unobtrusive way on two floors. The description is supported by artifacts found in Afrosiaba. All inscriptions are in three languages, including Russian and English. To the left and behind the museum there is an entrance to Afrosiab, a large expanse of low hills with sections of the cultural layer, many potsherds, as well as an extensive network of burrows. The owners themselves are gophers, they also come out to tourists. A 15-minute walk along the Afrosiab fence leads to the cemetery (there are few tombstones in the poppy thickets) and various mausoleums and mosques. Afrosiab restaurant is further to the left.

The settlement, which was bustling with life 10 centuries ago, and now there are excavations here. You just walk along and you have the history of an entire city-state under your feet. A very large number of pieces of ceramics are everywhere and all this is not younger than the 12th century. All the unique artifacts are kept in the museum nearby. And here is an incredible view of the old and new city. Such silence and tranquility. Unfortunately, visitors leave trash behind. And nobody cleans up this garbage. Foxes, ground squirrels and sheep graze here. Please don't leave any trash behind if you're here!
