Samarkand is one of the oldest cities of Central Asia and the jewel of the Silk Road. In the 14th century Tamerlane made it the capital of his empire and filled it with monuments of turquoise tile and gold.
The Registan, framed by three madrasahs of the 15th–17th centuries, is the most famous square in Central Asia. Nearby stand Gur-Emir, Tamerlane’s mausoleum under its ribbed blue dome, the vast Bibi-Khanym Mosque and Shah-i-Zinda, an avenue of blue-tiled mausoleums. The Ulugbek Observatory and the Konigil workshop, where silk paper is still made by hand, complete the picture.
