Shah-i-Zinda

This street has tombs belonging to Timur and his family and favorites that are decorated with the city's finest majolica tilework.

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.

World War II Memorial

Reviewed By Vukojebinje - London, United Kingdom

Living in Russia at the time I went to Uzbekistan, I was very much used to seeing World War II memorials in any place I went to - but, even so, I found this one particularly moving and impressive. Its setting in a peaceful and well cared for park, coupled with the beautifully designed structures surrounding the eternal flame, make for a very moving place of contemplation and remembrance. I’d recommend visiting the park (which joins Independence Square) in general, but also simply in order to see this memorial.

Saint Daniel's Tomb

Reviewed By dave_hempenstall1

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).
