Registan Square

梦游人daydreamer
|Samarkand|Registan Square Blue Hour After seeing the Samarkand complex, everything else is tasteless and blues moment. Registan Square is simply invincible! ! Registran Square Registan Square Registan St , Samarkand , Samarqand Region , Uzbekistan The main building is the most beautiful in the middle of the three Economic Colleges. It really seems to have entered the world of 1,000 and one nights. 1: If you don’t buy tickets, you can only take panoramic photos at the p2 sightseeing platform. There is no way to enter the ticket. You have to detour to the ticket window on the left side of the square to buy in July. Only cash is accepted. Can you swipe the card now? The fare is about 50,000sum30 RMB. You must go in and see the beauty in it! ! D: The three buildings are very good, but the pillars on the left are indeed crooked. It is also crooked when it is shot, but it does not affect the casual shot. It is a blockbuster! ! From the beginning of the bus, there were people coming over and wanting to chat and take photos. Even there was a queue behind us. From young people to middle-aged people, most of them were friendly. The locals were really too enthusiastic. There were three young girls who looked like teenagers. They kept chatting with us and said they liked it. The country I wanted to go to was the most. It’s a whole pride: there are official sales of Samarkand’s unique patterned handmade wooden refrigerator stickers and ornaments in the building. The price is about 25 to hundreds of thousands of yuan. (Forgot to take pictures, there will be a lot of worth buying in the vlog. There are also several small shops in the collection. Readings/: After the building lights in the dark square are on, the blues moment is officially entered! Beautiful! Beautiful to sit underground and don't want to go to sigh (but this time the shooter is black hahaha): Around 20:00 is the most lively commercial street outside the square. You must go for a walk. There are various snacks and small ones. The double-decker sightseeing car is full of fireworks p15. The box is especially delicious and it is free to send us a behind. I have been thinking about it until I have been outside the airport. It is twice as expensive.

Bibi-Khanym Mosque

Bibi-Khanym Mosque is an important historical site in Samarkand, Uzbekistan. Don’t miss it. The entrance fee is 40,000sum. Opposite is the Tomb of Bibi Khanum (Picture 11) Historical background: -This mosque was built on the order of Timur, ca. 1399 to 1405. After Timur returned victoriously from his campaign in India, he decided to build a grand Qingqi Temple in his capital, Samarkand, to show the majesty and glory of the empire. Its name "Bibi Khanum" is the name of Timur's wife. Legend has it that Timur used this to commemorate his Chinese wife. However, the "China" here does not refer to the dynasty, but the east of Timur's empire, which is actually the Mongolian region. Timur's wife is a Turkic Mongolian and the princess of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate. Xin building scale and structure: - Magnificent size: The Bibi Khanum Mosque is one of the largest mosques in Central Asia, with a 38-meter-high porch and a 41-meter main dome. It was also a huge building in the Islamic world at that time, able to accommodate about 10,000 people. Pilgrims.

Observatory of Ulugbek

The Ulegh Beg Observatory visit was one of my most anticipated planned visits on my trip and it did not dissapoint. Beutiful tranquil place with nice little museam and park benches around it to sit and reflect on how much the mans early discoveries has meant to mankind.

It's so beautiful! I didn't feel like I was visiting a cemetery at all! It was like a beautiful park! The ticket was not expensive. The first few dozen steps were a bit high because it was hot, so it was a bit tiring to climb up. But once I got to the arch, it was super comfortable. It was cool and I didn't want to leave after sitting there.

Uzbekistan, a small country in Central Asia, is not well-known in many people's eyes, and there are very few tourists who come here to travel. However, it has a long history and a leisurely life, which makes people linger.

Hazrat Khizr Mosque

Invisible Wind
The Hazrat Hizr Mosque (Hazrat Khizr Mosque) is the best location to photograph Bibi Hanum Mosque, the southernmost point of the ancient city of Avrasi Ab, where the mosque was built in the 8th century and was razed to the ground by Genghis Khan until 1854. The ceiling of the sunk panel on the flank porch of the mosque is decorated with colorful murals. From this beautiful flank porch, you can overlook the Bibi Hanum Mosque and Bibi Hanum Mausoleum. The hill where Hazrat Hizr Mosque is located overlooks the surrounding Old Town of Samarkand and only a few high-rise buildings can be seen.
