    • What is the weather like in central Asia?

      You will find that Uzbekistan has a strictly continental climate: summer is hot and winter is cold. The best time to travel in that area is spring, summer or autumn; if you like dry cold with a snowy winter then it is best to visit in winter as it can be very beautiful also at that time.

      Only four currencies are convertible in Central Asia which are; US dollar, Euro, UK pounds and Japanese yen.
