#registan Registan !!! ##Registan Square It is the most representative square in Samarkand. These three #monasteries and #mosques are more spectacular than any other Muslim country. There is no adjective that can describe this shock. Every time you enter a seminary, you will find a different world. Every detail of the engraving pattern is different. #Samarkand is so sacred, There should only be one chance in a lifetime to set foot on this land. So you have to feel it well😌 Tip: It is now much more convenient to travel to Central Asia from Hong Kong! You can travel to Uzbekistan without a visa for ten days, but you must enter through the airport, as land entry does not support visa exemption! #Uzbekistan #Niche Travel Destinations #Unpopular Countries #Central Asia #Free Travel #Five Central Asian Countries

As one of the world's most famous ancient cities, Samarkand is as old as Rome, Athens, and Babylon, and is referred to as the "Pearl of the East" in ancient Arabic literature. At the center of Samarkand is Registan Square, which is home to three famous madrasahs. 👣 They are: Ulugh Beg Madrasah, Sher-Dor Madrasah, and Tilya-Kori Madrasah. Today, we bring you a guide to these three must-see attractions, perfect for a day trip 👇🏻 1️⃣ Ulugh Beg Madrasah Ulugh Beg Madrasah is one of the oldest surviving madrasahs in Central Asia. Its architectural structure became the template for the construction of madrasahs in the Uzbekistan region. Inside the madrasah, there are two iwans, which were used for lectures in the past. The domes above the iwans have a honeycomb structure and are covered with patterns. 2️⃣ Sher-Dor Madrasah Built in 1619, it is modeled after Ulugh Beg Madrasah, but is smaller in size. Inside, you can find women dressed in traditional costumes taking beautiful photos. 3️⃣ Tilya-Kori Madrasah This madrasah is the youngest and smallest of the three madrasahs, and its unique feature is the mosque inside. The dome of the mosque is decorated with gold leaf patterns, making it one of the most beautiful dome decorations in Central Asia. 💰 Tickets: The three attractions make up Registan Square, and the ticket price is 65,000 UZS per person. ❤️ Tips: The buildings inside the attractions are quite beautiful, but there are many small vendors inside now. The shop selling fridge magnets inside the mosque is worth a visit, but the others are not worth considering.

Islamic architecture is beautiful with its delicate tiles and mosaics😍 Among them, I would like to introduce my favorite madrasah♪ *Madrasah is an Islamic seminary🖕 《Sherdor Madrassah》 Of the three madrasahs in Registan Square, this is the one on the right😸 The arch at the entrance has lion and human faces painted on it, which is rare in Islam, where idolatry is prohibited🦁 The dome is not a single color, but has a cute pattern❤️ And my favorite view is the view of the dome from the courtyard🍀 The small rooms and dome are extremely cute♪ I went first thing in the morning (around 8am) and in the afternoon, but the view of the dome from the courtyard was more beautiful in the morning because it was not in the shade🫡 Registan Square admission fee: 65,000UZS The square itself can be seen from outside the fence, but inside there was a cute courtyard hidden☺️ #Overseas travel journal #Uzbekistan #Samarkand #Islamic architecture #Breathtaking views you must see at least once
