- y adventures in Samarkand continued with a tour of the local ancient sites and some delicious, authentic Uzbekistan food. Come along with me as I explore Samarkand!
I started at Registan Square, which is bounded by the Ulugh Beg Madrasah, the Tilya-Kori Madrasah, and Sher-Dor Madrasah. Samarkand was the most important city along the Silk Road in Central Asia.
Registan is considered the heart of Samarkand. On its western side is Tilya-Kori Madrasah, which contains a mosque! The inside of its dome is gold-plated and painted in beautiful blue and gold. It’s covered in Arabic scripture from the Koran.
Next, we visited the Ulugh Beg Madrasah. On the second floor is an open-air terrace that’s also a hallway. From there, we had an awesome view of the courtyard below. We were near the students’ dormitories. The students came here already knowing the Koran and then chose what they wanted to study.
Then, we headed over to the Mausoleum of Amir Timur, a conquerer and king who founded the Timurid Empire in Central Asia. A 2-minute taxi ride there cost 10,000 som/$1.05 USD.
It costs 25,000 som/$2.63 USD for foreigners to enter the mausoleum, while Uzbeks pay 1,000 som/$0.10 USD. There was a beautiful courtyard and I could see an irrigation system. It didn’t look finished, or like part of it had been destroyed. There was a dome, two minarets, and the foundation of an old madrasah that was destroyed.
We headed to the tomb, where Amir Timur’s spiritual teacher is buried. Timur is also buried there along with the most important people in his life. There’s also an unknown tomb there. No one knows why it’s there! At the back of the tomb is the crypt, but only VIPs are allowed inside.
Next, we visited the Ulugh Beg Observatory at the Complex Museum of Mirzo Ulugbek. The observatory is where the Timurid astronomer Mirzo Ulugh Beg viewed the stars. In the museum are paintings of him and his colleagues, along with 15th-century astronomy instruments and models.
After another $1 USD ride, we arrived at the Shah-i-Zinda Necropolis. It’s made up of gorgeous temples, mausoleums, and other buildings from the 11th to 19th centuries.
There are 11 tombs in the necropolis in total! At the end is the mausoleum of the cousin of the prophet Muhammad!
We entered the Kusam Ibn Abbas Complex, which was built between the 11th and 13th centuries. It consists of a mosque, mausoleum, and prey room. His tomb was behind a sort of window. The mausoleum was so beautiful and colorful, and the tilework has lasted 7 centuries!
Next, it was time to go to Samarkand Restaurant for lunch! They served bread, a fritter, a pepper, eggplant with salad, cauliflower, a Greek-like salad, and stuffed zucchini. The zucchini was moist and crunchy on the outside.
The fritter felt like a vegetable omelet, while the pepper was refreshing and not spicy at all. The ham salad contained peas and potatoes, and there was a Greek-like salad of tomatoes, cottage cheese, and olives next to it.
The fried cauliflower was like the ultimate cauliflower! Next was a fluffy, crunchy, and airy Samarkand-style somsa, which was denser and rounder than others I’d had. There were tender meat and onions inside. Then, I had a soup called Nohot Shurva with chickpeas, carrots, potatoes, and a huge piece of beef! The chickpeas absorbed the broth and the beef was fresh, tender, and buttery!
Next, we had some local Bagizagan Select 2009 Merlot, which was very young, fresh, and fruity. The Samarkand plov was made with brown rice with carrots on top instead of throughout. It also contained raisins, chickpeas, and beef. I loved how fruity and sweet it was!
I hope you enjoyed exploring Samarkand with me! If you did, please give this video a thumbs up and leave a comment. Also, please subscribe to my channel so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food adventures!

Hi David! I’m commenting here before the end of video, rather towards the beginning..These Mas’s are absolutely gorgeous David! We have some damn good architects in our day, back in the 14,15 and 16 hundreds...Some today couldn’t beat it.
I’m 57 years old, i would be happy spending the rest of my days traveling and looking at all these old structures in our world. I’m amazed!
Hey, thanks David for ALWAYS doing your absolute best at explaining well, and sharing your own vision as you see it. Much appreciated!
Mary, for a woman of 57 you have a filthy mouth. Clean up your language!!!
Ivan Ivanov What are you talking about!!
Maybe you can’t read?
@@maryreynolds5310 Woman, Go and REread your post! If you don't notice it you are BLIND!!! Or can't YOU read??? HaHaHa!!!
Ivan Ivanov Damn, I don’t see it!! lol

👍👍👍👍
David, when you planning to visit India?
👍
Will come again bro?
I wish you could come to guyana
I love to watch your videos😛😜😝😀😌😌😗😍
Close to Indian food
Not at all close. India has got Uzbekistani food because of Moghal emperor Babar, who is originally from todays Uzbekistan.
@@dxbuz8611 Babur is not moghal, he is definitely uzbek, bro , but world think bobur is moghul
@@jumayevamuhabbat1248 Yes, he is actually Uzbek.
@@dxbuz8611 you should know that India is the "land of spices" the inventor of spices we have the food which so so unique any food arround the world we have our old version and you can't beat our spice territory that's why the Indian biryani is so popular in the world...in case you don't know I can explain more but who it's enough...lol😂😂
Maybe the unknown tomb was the king’s mistress.
P.S. Your guide has a bit of some giddyup in her step...lol For some, I’m sure you have to listen carefully and go vastly, fastly...are those even words lol
Just Read The Important Books Of The World. You Will See.
Divad how much u eat everyday ?lol

Про Хива не забудь.
Looks a lot like the Muslim architecture in Delhi/Agra
Who built taj mahal and agra Baburshah grandson shahjahon. Shahjahon was uzbek.
Delhi and Agra architecture was built by Uzbeks - Mohammad Babur
Это не индия а САМАРКАНД бро .бу бизни юрт бро .яшасин узбекистан.
