Khan's Palace, Xoqand
2019年7月15日, ウズベキスタン ⋅ ☀️ 38 °C
Palace of the ruler of "Kokand" kingdom, built in the 1860s. The kingdom existed for over 1,000 years and was active in the silk road trade.
First is the building itself; then the main courtyard (one of 7 courtyards in the palace, as 7 is a sacred number in Islam). Next are several rooms, leading up to the main throne room. There are 118 rooms, another Koranic number.
This is the Fergana valley, one of the more fertile areas of central Asia. Craftsman here were famous for their woodworking skills, as can be seen in the workmanship here.もっと詳しく

Tashkent
2019年7月16日, ウズベキスタン ⋅ ☀️ 32 °C
Capital of Uzbekistan. Founded 2,200 years ago, this has been a center of trade, including the silk route, for that time. It has only been a political center since the latter 19th century.
The first pic is of the Amur Timur statue. He is better known as Tamerlane, an Uzbek national hero more often associated with Samarkand. Next is Independence Park. Third is the one of the best war memorials I think I've ever seen--a woman weeping along side the eternal flame. It gets at the deep effects of war that are often ignored. 4th is one of the Metro stations, not as ornate as the Moscow Metro, but still nicer than most. Next is "Broadway," the entertainment area of town. Last is part of the main market.もっと詳しく

Samarqand
2019年7月18日, ウズベキスタン ⋅ ☀️ 33 °C
Aka Samarkand. Probably the most famous city on the silk road. Founded almost 3,000 years ago. Served as Tamerlane's capital. Became the empire known as the Mughul empire in India.
Most of the old city has been destroyed. Only a few buildings remain and those are generally restored. First is the building at the observatory built by Tamerlane's grandson Ulugbeg, and the second is what remains of the largest sextant/quadrant of the 14th century when the Islamic world was the intellectual center. Astronomy done there became the basis for western astronomy. The work was so accurate that they calculated the length of the year to about 1 minute off of current science. Ulugbeg was assassinated by fundamentalists, resulting in the end of the era of Islamic growth and descent into their dark ages.
Next are a couple of pics of the necropolis of Tamerlane's family built on the site where one of Mohammed's cousins is buried. Last is Tamerlane's own mausoleum.もっと詳しく

ウズベキスタン Samarkand 39.65474, 66.9752939°39’17” N 66°58’31” E
Registon Square
2019年7月18日, ウズベキスタン ⋅ ☀️ 40 °C
The center of Samarkand and, some say, the center of central Asia. These are the only buildings allowing pictures inside. Hence more pictures to see what the inside of the others look like.
In the first pic of the square as a whole, the building on the left was built in the 15th century by Ulugbeg as a madrassah (which at that time meant a school for science) that became the main science institute of central Asia. The other two were built in the 17th century. These pictures show the two levels of small rooms for sleeping and study and the way the walls throughout were finished. The last is the "gold mosque" in the madrassah built after the former science buildings were changed to Koranic study.もっと詳しく

Nurota
2019年7月20日, ウズベキスタン ⋅ ☀️ 40 °C
City near the center of Uzbekistan. Located at an oasis where traders met to be refreshed and do some business. The first pic is of a ruined fortress supposedly built by Alexander. While the archaeology suggests it was built in the right time frame, there is no evidence that Alexander was actually here. The oasis pool in the second pic still provides all the water for the town; while the 3rd pic shows the "holy fish," so named for the mosque and mausoleums located here. The fish are protected. Next is the main square in town. Last is the entry to the park including the oasis, the fort and the main mosque in town.もっと詳しく

ウズベキスタン Bukhara 39.77058, 64.4216239°46’14” N 64°25’18” E
Bukhara
2019年7月21日, ウズベキスタン ⋅ ☀️ 45 °C
One of the oldest cities in the world at more than 2 1/2 millennia and a major intersection of the many routes of the silk road. The first pic is chassma ayub: Job's Spring. Tradition has it that the biblical figure Job arrived here and made the spring by banging his rod on the ground. Note the conical dome. That survives from Tamerlane's time. Next is the main mosque here followed by the Ark. This is the fortress and residence of the emirs/khans who ruled Bukhara. In the local Turkic language, ark=home. An interesting parallel to the Noah story. Next is a madrassah, a mosque and another madrassah portico that actually has pre-Islamic symbols, some are even Zoroastrian.もっと詳しく

ウズベキスタン Bukhara 39.77631, 64.4149339°46’35” N 64°24’54” E
Kalon, Bukhara
2019年7月22日, ウズベキスタン ⋅ ☀️ 37 °C
Kalon means large and refers to this square of large buildings. The first is the main minaret that is a symbol of Bukhara. The second pic gives a sense of scale, while the next 3 are of the mosque and madrassah around the square. Last is one of the nearby Trader's Domes. These were built over intersections such that people had to pass on through. They provided shade and weather protection for shoppers and merchants alike, and each one has a mosque and a hammam (bath). Kinda like a forebear of modern enclosed malls.もっと詳しく

Khiva
2019年7月25日, ウズベキスタン ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C
Former capital of the Xorezm (Korezm) empire. Now a provincial city restored to recall history, at least since the last time it was destroyed by invaders about 300 years ago.
The original city is at least 2,500 years old.
The first pic is the tallest minaret here followed by the west gate. Then a couple madrassahs. The tile work around the entrances is similar to other sites. What is unique to Khiva is the balcony within the arch over the entrance. Next is an overview of part of the city. Last is one be of the oldest mosques, this one built on the model off Mohammed's first mosques outside Medina.もっと詳しく

There are 5 palaces here, but only 2 are within the city walls. First is a gate. Then the private mosque. Next are the three courtyards: the harem, the area for private entertainment and the formal reception room, what might call the throne room.もっと詳しく
