How to recognise Uzbekistan from the road
Drives on the right
Cotton fields, poplar-lined roads and blue tiled domes. Uzbekistan writes in Latin letters with a few unusual marks.
What to look for
1
Uzbek spelling
Look for oʻ and gʻ, written with a small apostrophe-like mark, and letter pairs like sh and ch.
2
Poplar rows
Roads and canals are lined with tall, narrow poplar trees.
3
Flat and dry
Most of the land is flat, irrigated farmland or desert.
