520    "From the blue and gold splendors of Samarkand to the holy
       city of Bukhara, the architectural heritage of Uzbekistan 
       is simply extraordinary. Over the 2,000 year history of 
       the Silk Road, its fertile oases have attracted countless 
       travelers and conquerors who have profoundly made their 
       mark on human history, such as the conqueror Tamerlane or 
       the scientist Ulugh Beg, who discovered the sundial. All 
       have bequeathed an inheritance whose legacy can still be 
       admired today. By its geographical position, Ancient 
       Uzbekistan was created from a melting pot of different 
       cultures. Iran, the Eastern Steppes, Siberia, India and 
       China have all added their own influences on the local 
       arts. Over the centuries, due in many parts to the Silk 
       Road, these exchanges have continued to grow. Cities such 
       as Samarkand, Bukhara, Tashkent and Khiva became famous in
       the Middle Ages not only for their cultural wealth, but 
       also for science. In homage to this rich heritage, this 
       book is a celebration of the arts and pictorial traditions
       of Uzbekistan. Photographs of architectural works, murals,
       ceramics, tapestries and ornamented textiles highlight the
       country's cultural treasures, accompanied by short texts 
       explaining their historical significance. On the right-
       hand page, the reader is given the opportunity to color in
       their own drawings based on the beautiful photographs 
       provided."--|cProvided by Freading.
