A couple of months ago I went to the Samarkand, one of the most ancient and historic places in my country. He is my friend whose name is Sarwar. Sarwar is an energetic and interesting person because he loves shaking his bodies. That’s why we travelled there when the music festival was going on. At first we went to the Redistan Square to see the old monuments and other places there. We wanted to take a picture to show off to our bodies when we come back. But there were a lot of people we couldn’t manage to take an image of ourselves, but at least we handled to take a selfie. At this time many tourists came to around the world to see the historic places they learned about culture and tradition. We wanted to have a lunch in a local restaurant called Kebab but they were very crowded and even the meals were not left. At the end of the day we were on the verge of coming back and Sarwar was sad because he couldn’t participate in the musical events. However one of my friends invited us to go to a music event which was going to hold at the centre of Regisland Square. The music event was planned 2 months ago. We had to buy tickets but we didn’t have enough money since they were prohibitively expensive. However, my friend bought for us. They were a lot of people and never had we seen such an electronic atmosphere but we couldn’t do anything just for listening to the music and Sarwar couldn’t shake his body. Despite its crowded place, it was awesome and I wanna thank to my friend who invited us to music event.

A couple of months ago I went to Samarkand, one of the most ancient and historic places in my country. He is my friend whose name is Sarwar. Sarwar is an energetic and interesting person because he loves shaking his body. That's why we travelled there when the music festival was going on. At first we went to the Registan Square to see the old monuments and other places there. We wanted to take a picture to show off to our friends when we came back. But there were a lot of people, so we couldn't manage to take an image of ourselves, but at least we managed to take a selfie. At this time many tourists came from around the world to see the historic places and learn about culture and tradition. We wanted to have lunch in a local restaurant called Kebab, but it was very crowded and even the meals were not left. At the end of the day we were on the verge of coming back, and Sarwar was sad because he couldn't participate in the musical events. However, one of my friends invited us to go to a music event which was going to be held at the centre of Registan Square. The music event was planned two months ago. We had to buy tickets, but we didn't have enough money since they were prohibitively expensive. However, my friend bought them for us. There were a lot of people, and never had we seen such an electrifying atmosphere, but we couldn't do anything except listen to the music, and Sarwar couldn't shake his body. Despite the crowded place, it was awesome, and I want to thank my friend who invited us to the music event.
