About this app
Turava is a travel map and guide to the Silk Road in Central Asia — Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan as one journey. 2,200+ sights on one map, an audio guide, a Silk Road trip planner across five countries, hiking trails and a travel passport of GPS stamps. In 15 languages.
🌏 FIVE COUNTRIES, ONE ROAD
UZBEKISTAN — Samarkand and the Registan, Bukhara, Khiva and Itchan Kala, Tashkent, the Fergana Valley, Termez, the Aral Sea.
KAZAKHSTAN — Almaty, Astana, Turkistan and the Yasawi mausoleum, Charyn Canyon, Lake Kaindy, Shymkent.
KYRGYZSTAN — Bishkek, Issyk-Kul, Osh and Sulaiman-Too, Karakol, Song-Kol, Burana Tower, Tash Rabat.
TAJIKISTAN — Dushanbe, the Pamir, Iskanderkul and the Fann Mountains, Panjakent and Sarazm, Khujand.
TURKMENISTAN — Ashgabat, Merv, the Darvaza gas crater, Nisa, Kunya-Urgench, Yangykala Canyon.
🗺 MAP OF 2,200+ SIGHTS
Mausoleums, madrasahs, mosques, fortresses, ancient cities, museums and nature on one map, with the distance from where you stand. Filter by country and category, save places, plan your day.
🎧 AUDIO GUIDE
At the famous monuments, put your headphones in and listen instead of squinting at a screen in the sun. An audio tour in your own language.
📖 SILK ROAD PASSPORT — TRAVEL STAMPS
Collect a digital stamp at every monument you visit. Your phone checks the GPS: a stamp cannot be earned from your sofa — and that is exactly why it is worth something.
🛤 TRIP PLANNER: A ROUTE THAT BUILDS ITSELF
Pick your cities — Tashkent, Samarkand, Bukhara, Khiva and 60+ more across five countries. Turava works out the order, the days, the transport between cities and the border crossings. Where a leg is unverified, we say so instead of inventing it.
🕰 THE SAME PLACE, A CENTURY AGO
Colour photographs from 1871–1911 (Prokudin-Gorsky and the Turkestan Album). Drag the slider and Registan, Bukhara or Shah-i-Zinda turn back into the city of a hundred years ago. 68 monuments, 350+ photographs.
🔔 TRAVEL MODE
Walk around the city with the phone in your pocket: Turava tells you when a sight is within 500 m. You switch it on yourself, and your location never leaves the phone.
⛰ MOUNTAINS AND HIKING
185 hiking trails with distance and elevation, plus border-zone and permit notes.
👤 LOCAL GUIDES
Price, languages and specialities — all open.
🍽 WHERE TO EAT
900+ places to eat near the sights.
🧭 THE PRACTICAL PART
Visa rules with the official source and the date they were checked. Currency rates. Emergency numbers that work offline. Phrasebook. AI travel assistant. Step counter with a home-screen widget.
📴 WHEN THE SIGNAL DROPS
Download a city pack: descriptions and photos work without a connection. (Google's map itself is not stored offline — the licence forbids it, and we do not promise what we do not do.)
🎮 QUIZ
Recognise monuments by photo, city and category.
🌍 15 LANGUAGES
English, Russian, Uzbek, Kazakh, Kyrgyz, Tajik, Turkmen, Turkish, German, French, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Indonesian, Malay.
Free to download. Optional Turava Premium unlocks the full day-by-day plan and the audio guide everywhere.
Turava is built in Central Asia, for people travelling the Silk Road.
