The genre sculpture of the Great Scientist is installed next to the ruins of a unique observatory created by Ulugbek in the 15th century, with the help of which this great man and a great scientist made astronomical discoveries that later surprised European scientists. It is worth visiting to pay tribute to the great scientist of the Middle Ages. Near the sculpture there is a spontaneous market where you can buy fresh and very tasty tortillas.
This is the very first Ulugbek observatory that appeared on earth and I am very glad that this place is located in Uzbekistan Samarkand is a great city with a centuries-old history
A majestic monument to an outstanding personality. Anyone who finds themselves in this place for the first time will want to take a picture against its background 🙂
A wonderful historical ensemble that tells about the wonderful history of the development of astronomy in our country. Be sure to take a guide at the entrance, I assumed the photo to be a comment, I am very pleased with his accompaniment.
A very beautiful, interesting and unusual hotel. New and clean. With good linen and comfortable mattresses. One minus. The rooms have no windows on the street, they go out into the corridor. It's very stuffy to sleep.
A great place for beautiful photos! There is also beauty and cleanliness around! The monument impresses with its size and beauty! Definitely a must-visit when visiting Samarkand!
A beautiful and authentic place.
It's worth visiting, I recommend it.
The area is free of charge, if you climb higher on the territory of buildings, then be kind to pay money.

The interesting location of the monument, it's nice to see that the area is pretty clean and there are benches, which is very good for people who just want to relax a little and think or take some energy.
The monument was erected next to the ruins of a unique observatory created by Ulugbek in the 15th century, with the help of which this statesman and a prominent scientist made astronomical discoveries that later surprised European scientists. The place for the monument was well chosen. It is worth visiting to pay tribute to the great scientist of the Middle Ages.
The monument is beautiful))))) In fact, Ulugbek is a phenomenal man and ruled the city and studied astronomy, books were written and taught at Oxford according to his notes
The story is certainly interesting, and the place is fascinating, but the entrance is not worth the money that foreign tourists pay. And in general, if you translate it into rubles, it's 1000 rubles in 12 minutes. It's a pity, robbery. And the whole attraction is 30 steps in size.

A beautiful place is of course a big plus for the tourist city of Samarkand for the care and creation of such places, I personally really liked the location.
The most important thing is that excellent Samarkand tortillas are sold nearby
A beautiful historical place. The thoughtfulness of the scientists of that time, who were able to calculate the time very accurately, is amazing. If you restore the entire monument, it will be epic, even for modern times.
The monument is very huge and beautiful! There is gold somewhere. The monument is very large, and behind it there is a large wall with space and planets
Everything looks great, but it still looks like a new building, for tourists who travel the world a lot, they can clearly distinguish what is new from what is old. How much money the hokimiyat spend on these attractions, but all in vain, probably the money goes somewhere
Somehow, the khokimiyat must find a solution to give an antique look and the roads are in poor condition.
Drivers almost do not follow the road rules. A yellow traffic light means green for them. And stop them 2-3 meters after the stop line.
Tourists bargain with the counters if you want to buy something as a keepsake. The counters are overpricing 200-300% ,
A great place for selfies. Clean air, open space. The largest tortillas in the city are sold nearby. There is a museum - observatory of M. Ulugbek at the back
A worthy monument to a worthy people. There is a place where you can take a selfie and climb higher to see the sights, in particular the Ulugbek Observatory and the museum.
