Bukhara, about 2500 years old, is one of the oldest cities in the world.  For centuries it was the crossroads of the ancient world as East met West to trade goods and most likely exchange ideas of philosophy and other interests in those times.  The welfare of Bukhara had depended on trade and craft for centuries.  Now in the 21st century, they continue to produce beautiful handmade arts & crafts, traditional folk dances and music.
