What was it like during the time of the Tzars? How about stopping off for the night with your camels during your trek along the Silk Road? Wonder no more, head to the main museum in Samarkand and check out some of the period rooms.
Old Russian Tzar life, fine rooms with rich detail.
Ogling the details. The wallpaper is practically 3D. Leather? That big green tile tower is a heater. Ballroom entrance. It must be some ballroom.
Dialing it back about 600 years from Tzar time, all one asks for is a clean carpet for a little rest.
Of course, the carpets could also get a bit fancy in their day.
