The Registan
About The Registan
The main attraction in Samarkand. A collection of three madrassahs each of which is slightly different in both style and decoration. The internal decoration is just as nice as the external decorationa nd views. Take time to explore all the detail and archaitecture of each of the madrassahs.

Wonderful collection of three stunning madrassahs. Go at different times of the day if possible, as the Ragistan has its own character at different times of day. The atmosphere at dawn is very different to that in the evening, afternoon or nighttime. Take time to look at the detail in the tile work, even though much is restored it still has alot of skill and artistic detail involved.
