The sheer scope and ambition of the entrance gateway to Timur's palace give a fascinating indication of what the entire complex must have looked like. The setting now is restful parkland and in the autumn sunshine it is a place to stroll and indulge in fantasises about the glorious past of this place. That said, there is something a bit incongruous about all the brides wanting to be photographed at the statue of Timur, who by our contemporary standards was not a kindly old gentleman who would have smiled and wished them well.
