Come to see Khorezm!
Khiva is one of the most remote surviving cities of the Great Silk Road in Central Asia. During its heyday, Khorezm was the largest center of international trade, a key point on the Great Silk Road. Merchants from the Volga region, India, Iran came here, from here trade caravans to the Middle East, Eastern Turkestan and China went. From Khiva they made their way to Mongolia, and through the Cumanian steppes – to Saxin, a trading city at the mouth of the Volga River, and further to the Russian principalities and Europe. Archaeologists are opening more and more new routes of ancient caravan routes and, in particular, from Khorezm to Mangyshlak and from there – by sea to the Lower Volga region, which proves that Khorezm merchants held in their hands a significant part of trade of Central Asian states with Eastern Europe.
