About this spot
Registan Square, located in the heart of Samarkand, Uzbekistan, is a breathtaking ensemble of three grand madrasahs adorned with intricate tilework and majestic domes. Dating back to the 15th and 17th centuries, these historic Islamic buildings—Ulugh Beg Madrasah, Tilya-Kori Madrasah, and Sher-Dor Madrasah—form a stunning architectural masterpiece that served as a center for learning, commerce, and religious gatherings during the Timurid dynasty. The square, once a bustling hub of activity, remains a symbol of Samarkand's rich cultural heritage and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, attracting visitors from around the globe with its beauty and historical significance.
