Buses carry shoppers to
and from the Kumtepa
Bazaar in Margilon,
Uzbekistan, in 2016.
For centuries this was
an important stop on
the Silk Road, a com-
plex web of commercial
trails that, as Salopek
writes, connected the
markets and minds of
Asia, Europe, and Africa.
Today local people here
buy everything from
motor oil to onions.
