3.Speak on the topic : The Great Silk Road. In ancient days important caravan routes from China to Europe crossed through Uzbekistan, and so several large cities grew up, such as Bukhara, Samarkand, Tashkent, and so on. In the Middle Ages, Instead of going to China and the East by sea, as they do today, traders made long journey of many months overland, and the routes they went by had lovely names, such as the Great Silk Road or the Golden Road. The cities along these routes became rich.
But there were wild times, and Mongols invaded the country, destroyed the cities and killed the people.
Amir Temur made Samarkand his capital and rebuild it, he build many great market-places, mosques, and gardens. When he died, he was buried in Samarkand. Amir Temur’s tomb is still there, and people now go to Samarkand to visit it.
