00:19Water has always determined why people settled, traveled and traded across what is now Uzbekistan.
00:26Our journey begins just over an hour from the capital, in the Tashkent region, where the Ugam River winds through
00:32the foothills of the Western Tenshine.
00:36Flowing through the foothills of the Western Tenshine, the Ugam River is one of Uzbekistan's most important mountain waterways.
00:44Fied by snowmelt and natural springs, it supports local ecosystems, agriculture and communities, while also attracting visitors with its clear
00:53waters and dramatic scenery.
00:56For many, it's a place to escape the city, but it also highlights the key role that mountain rivers play
01:02in sustaining life across the region.
01:05Originating in Kazakhstan before crossing into Uzbekistan, the Ugam River supplies water to communities along its course,
01:13while helping make the Boston Luka District one of the country's most popular destinations for outdoor recreation.
01:32Further into the mountains, another water attraction has developed in the village of Nanaib.
01:54Several hours to the south, the landscape changes once again.
01:58In the mountains of Jizakh region, springs emerge naturally from the rocks, feeding streams and waterfalls that remain active throughout
02:06the year.
02:07In the mountains of Jizakh region, we have a very different side of Uzbekistan, surrounded by rocky cliffs and greenery.
02:28It has become an increasingly popular destination for hikers and nature lovers looking to escape the summer heat.
02:36Researchers have found naturally high levels of iron in the spring water, while local authorities are exploring ways to develop
02:44tourism without changing the character of the surrounding forest.
03:15For many visitors, however, the main attraction is being used by the tourists.
03:18...de Attraktion ist die Landschaft selbst.
03:21Wir sind beim Nachbarn am Tag.
03:23Wir sind hier sehr gut.
03:25Wir arbeiten mit einer Zucht,
03:26mit einem Schraub und einem Schraub.
03:30Der letzte Kuhl-Stand und Bukhara zu fahren.
03:33Wie im Bukhara des Ruhs,
03:35wird hier viel geholfen und angenommen werden.
03:39Wenn wir über die Silk Road denken,
03:41wir sehen uns die Karavans crossen in den Ältesten.
03:44Aber diese Reise waren nur möglich, weil sie diesen Ort möglich sind.
03:48Diese Ancient Hauwos transformiert Bukhara in ein Oasis,
03:51um die Wasser zu verändern, um die Worte zu verändern.
03:56Eine von ihnen ist Lebihauwos.
03:59Built around eine große, stein-linige Bühne, in der early 17th century,
04:03die Ensemble gradually became einer von Bukhara's Beziehungs-Publicen Spaces.
04:14So nachdem wir den Arck nach dem Land und der Umgebung kommen,
04:18der Arck nach dem Land wird er.
04:21Eine Requiere des Arck nach dem Arck-Fortress stand.
04:25Balakhovoz supplied the Emir's Residents in the surrounding Government Quarter.
04:31Wir haben den Arck nach dem Land zu verbring.
04:34Wir werden den Arck-Fortress der Arck nach dem Land verspürt.
04:37Wir werden auf dem Land zu verbringern,
04:39die den Abenteuer der Arck nach dem Land zu verbringern.
04:44Each destination of this journey share one thing in common.
04:47Without water, neither these landscapes nor the communities around them would exist as they do today.
