Samarkand's Climate

Samarkand lies deep in Central Asia, set on the Zeravshan valley in eastern Uzbekistan and far from any sea, giving it a continental semi-arid climate with a wide temperature range. Summers (June–August) are very hot and dry, with daytime highs of 33–38°C, though low humidity keeps the heat less oppressive; winters (December–February) turn cold, dipping below 0°C with occasional snow. Rain falls mainly in spring (March–April) and late autumn, while midsummer is almost rainless. Spring and autumn are short but pleasant, and the best time to see the ancient city.
