Ornamental public square flanked by 3 historic madrasas built in the 15th & 17th centuries.
Registon Square
Registon Square in Samarkand is a vast 15th–17th century ensemble of three monumental madrasahs—Ulugh Beg, Sher-Dor, and Tillya-Kori—facing a central courtyard paved in stone. Its façades are covered in intricate glazed tilework, mosaic mosaics, and geometric calligraphy that reflect Timurid architectural innovations and a synthesis of Persian and Central Asian arts. Visitors can study the differing construction dates, decorative programs, and restored interiors to trace the square’s role as a medieval educational, cultural, and ceremonial center.
