Morning in the Old City: Step back in time at the Khast Imam Complex, the spiritual nucleus of Uzbekistan.

We'll explore architectural gems like the Barak Khan Madrasah, the elegant Tillya Sheikh Mosque, and the serene Mausoleum of Kaffal Shashi, a revered local saint.

We continue to Opera and Ballet Square, home to the Navoi Theater, a Soviet-era marvel with surprising Eastern flourishes and a storied wartime history. We end the day where we began — at Amir Timur Square — and step into the spiritual quiet of the Orthodox Cathedral of the Assumption, a final moment of stillness before dinner.
