Samarkand is one of the great cities of the ancient world – even the name “Samarkand” evokes a sense of enchantment and wonder. During an excursion along the ancient Silk Road route through Uzbekistan, the Registan of Samarkand was among the most resplendent architectural masterpieces that I encountered. This photograph features the Ulugh Beg Madrasah, one of three parts of the Registan complex.
