About this experience
Early morning is Khiva's quietest and most beautiful hour. The walled city is almost empty, and the first light turns the mud-brick walls and blue-tiled minarets gold.
A local photography guide takes you to the best viewpoints for sunrise and through the lanes as the city wakes up — bakers lighting tandoors, shopkeepers opening up, children heading to school.
