In the morning, we took a taxi to the summer residence of the last emir. It was a very beautiful “dacha” with exquisite decorations and lavish displays of the many gifts that emir received from various emissaries. We then went to another interesting site - a necropolis of many 10th century graves of the prophet Mohammed relatives, named Chor Bakr. It was a very quiet and peaceful place, and our guide, a local woman, displayed reverence over this sacred place. After the tour, we left to the train station and took a high speed train to Samarkand. We arrived to Samarkand in the evening, and stayed right next to its main square, the Registan. We went to see the three Medresses of this square in the dark, and enjoyed the music and light show of traditional songs, with the colorful lights dancing across the majestic buildings.Baca lagi
