Of course the Registan in Samarkand is magnificent, but a journey along the Silk Road in Uzbekistan makes one to enjoy the splendor of Central Asia's old culture.From the Ferghana Valley to Khiva, passing Tashkent, Samarkand, Bukhara, you will see breathtaking monuments and landcapes !

The Registan is definitely the "must-see" you should not miss when travelling through Samarkand. At times it is quite crowded, but usually that is not a big problem.

Although great to look it , mostly the monuments are reconstructed, renovated new.the tickets are definitely expensve for non nationals.

Too bad there's an expensive entrance fee (they wanted 14000 som to get inside), but still worth visiting once, and nice to look at from a distance anyway at any point of day. This is an iconic piece of Samarkand, but you should see more of Samarkand (especially Shahr-i-Zindar, Gur Emir Mausoleum, Bibi Khanym Mosque)

It is a wonderful building. Never seen such well-preserved ancient building. U can learn Uzbeks culture inside it as well. Magnificent:D
