Here are some of the must-visit places in this remarkable city:

Registan Square

The heart of Samarkand and a symbol of its grandeur. Three madrasahs — Ulugh Beg, Sher-Dor, and Tilya-Kori — form a breathtaking ensemble that dazzles with its architecture and decorative art. The square is especially magical when illuminated at night.

 Gur-Emir Mausoleum

The resting place of Amir Timur (Tamerlane) and his descendants. This mausoleum impresses with its majestic dome and rich interior — a prime example of Timurid architecture.

Bibi-Khanym Mosque

One of the largest mosques of its time, built in honor of Tamerlane’s beloved wife. Grand and monumental, it embodies the spirit of medieval Samarkand.

Siab Bazaar

A lively and atmospheric eastern market next to the Bibi-Khanym Mosque. Here, you can sample tandoor bread, dried fruits, halva, and buy authentic souvenirs.
