The strict prohibition on the representation of the human
form has channeled artistic creation into architecture and
architectural decoration. This book is a magical tour
through Central Asia - Khirgizia, Tadjikistan, Turkmenia,
and Uzbekistan - a cradle of Ancient civilisations and a
repository of the Oriental arts inspired by Buddhism and
Islam. There are magnificent, full-colour photographs of the
abandoned cities of Mervand Urgench, Khiva, the capital of
the Kharezm, with its mausoleum of Sheikh Seid Allahuddin,
and, the Golden Road to Samarkand, the Blue City, a
center of civilisation for 2,500 years.
