Boysun travel guide

Boysun is one of the oldest inhabited regions of Central Asia located in the south-eastern part of Uzbekistan on the route that connects Asia Minor to India. Historically, the City of Boyson, part of the Boyson District, has been an important town along the Silk Road route, but with the declining importance of Silk Road and dwindling political change in Central Asia, this region became quite isolated from the other cities located along the route. This profoundly favored the preservation of relics and ancient tradition which you can experience in a much quieter environment with limited to no crowd.
