Recently, the famous American magazine Time published a list of "The Greatest Places in the World" for the current year. A total of 50 places - historical places on the Great Silk Road - were included in this list. The 22-story Samarkand Regency Amir Temur hotel and seven other hotels were registered. The magazine focused on the Silk Road festival, which is scheduled to take place in Uzbekistan for the first time this fall, as well as on a project to create a State Art Museum in Tashkent under the direction of Japanese architect Tadao Ando. The magazine highlighted the high-speed rail network, which makes it convenient to visit our country's main historic cities.
