Remarkably it is nearly two-years since my epic trip to Turkmenistan & Uzbekistan.

My photo today comes from what many consider to be Samarkand’s fourth biggest draw, the awesome Bibi-Khanym Mosque.

The tilework and artwork are exquisite and in most cities would be the premier attraction. Samarkand really does spoil you!

Join me and a few others over on Twitter @wilburstravels to post a picture featuring the colour blue aimed at helping us all beat those start of week blues.
