I found this structure in the desert outside of Dubai. This is one of several circles of mirrored pillars on wooden decks with walkways between. It looks like it was once some kind of entertainment space but now unused. It has a rather surreal feel and I'll return to make some more photoraphs as it is very photogenic. But, on this day, it was over 50 degrees out (120 for Americans) and hella humid so I retreated to the car pretty quickly.
Uzbekistan
Samarkand
This is a unique and well-known theater located in the historical center of Samarkand
The theater brings the history and culture of Central Asia and the Silk Road to life through dance and traditional costumes, spanning various historical eras.
On stage, you will see garments from various eras. This ranges from the Bronze Age and the time of the Scythians to the shimmering silk robes of the Timurids and traditional wedding attire.
Many of the costumes shown are exact replicas. The creators recreated them based on archaeological finds, ancient manuscripts, and frescoes from museums around the world.
