About Registan Square

Registan Square, located in the city centre of Samarkand, Uzbekistan, is the centre of culture and learning in the region. Surrounded by three grand madrasahs, the square reflects centuries of learning, art, and Islamic architecture.

At different times of day, the light changes the colours of the buildings, making every visit feel different and memorable, attracting travellers interested in history, architecture, and photography.
