Ancient fortresses of Khorezm
Northeast of the city of Urgench in Uzbekistan is an area known as Elik-Kala, where fifty fortresses once stood.

However, over time, the number of fortresses was reduced to about twenty. On this fascinating tour you will be able to visit the most prominent of the remaining fortresses, immersing yourself in the atmosphere of antiquity and experiencing the grandeur of bygone eras.
