Shah i Zinda, comes from Persian which means "The Living King". Consists of several buildings in the form of mausoleums and other buildings including the mosque. Built from the 9th to the 14th centuries. The name Shah-i-Zinda is connected to Kusam Ibn Abbas, a cousin of the Prophet Muhammad who was buried here, who came to Samarkand along with the Arab invasion in the 7th century.

A very nice small site to visit. The tomb and its length was cool. Nice area, the steps at the back bring you up to a cemetery and spring water source(another Source before the ticket office beside the blue dome).

This is a must-see, and worth the walk if you're the other side of Registan as I was. Shame it's right next to hugely busy traffic, so be prepared to either risk life and limb, or view from the park side of the road.
