  1. Registan

    1Registan

    Three madrasahs face one square: Ulugh Beg's (1417–1420) on the west, Sher-Dor (1619–1636) opposite and Tilya-Kori (1646–1660) between them. Tilya-Kori means 'gilded': step into its mosque to see why. The square opens at 8 a.m.; come early for the sun on Ulugh Beg's facade, and again in the late afternoon, when the light moves to Sher-Dor.

    2Gur-e-Amir

    Timur's mausoleum, completed in 1404; his sons and grandsons, Ulugh Beg among them, lie here too. Outside is a ribbed turquoise dome, inside a gilded interior. Come at the end of the day, when the portal is at its best in the dusk.

  3. Bibi-Khanym Mosque

    3Bibi-Khanym Mosque

    The Friday mosque Timur ordered after his Indian campaign of 1398–1399, one of the largest of its time. It is about 700 m from the Registan along a pedestrian street, so walk there. Across the road stands a small mausoleum of the same name.

Bairros

  • The old town, Gur-e-Amir to Shah-i-Zinda The monuments line up north-east from Gur-e-Amir: the Registan, a pedestrian street to Bibi-Khanym and the bazaar, then Shah-i-Zinda. You can walk the whole line in a day.
  • Afrasiyab and the observatory North of Shah-i-Zinda lie the site of the ancient city and its museum, and further east the Ulugh Beg Observatory. Quieter than the centre; take a car for the last stretch.
  • The Russian and Soviet town Beyond the old town is the city built from the late 19th century on, with administrative buildings, theatres and universities. This is everyday Samarkand rather than a museum.
  • Silk Road Samarkand A tourist district on the old Soviet rowing canal, opened in 2022: eight hotels and the Eternal City, an ethnographic park with an open-air amphitheatre. We suggest it for an evening walk by the water.

O que comer

  • Samarkand non Round bread baked on the walls of a tandoor, denser and heavier than ordinary non, and it keeps for a long time. Buy it hot at Siab Bazaar in the morning.
  • Samarkand Here plov is not stirred: rice goes on the platter first, then the carrots, then the meat on top, while in Tashkent everything is mixed. Plov is a midday dish, so order it at lunch.
  • Dried fruit, nuts and halva Siab's long rows of dried apricots, raisins, nuts and halva are the best place for presents that survive the flight home. Tasting before you buy is normal.

Como se locomover

The old town is a walk: about 1 km from Gur-e-Amir to the Registan, 700 m along the pedestrian street to Bibi-Khanym and 800 m more to Shah-i-Zinda. For the observatory, the railway station (more than 6 km from the Registan) and the Imam al-Bukhari complex, take a taxi: Yandex Go works in Samarkand and shows the fare before you ride. The city also has buses and, since 2017, modern trams from the railway station, one line running to Siab Bazaar.

Nossa opinião: quantos dias você precisa

Dois a três dias dão conta das principais atrações: o Registan, Shah-i-Zinda, Gur-e-Amir e o bazar. Dá para fazer em um dia saindo de Tashkent, mas é preciso sair bem cedo. Shahrisabz e Penjikent são passeios de um dia à parte, então acrescente um dia para cada um.
