Ulugʻbek madrasasi

Very cool stuff to see here. Very unique structures you will not see in the west. Definitely a stop in Uzbekistan you need to make for some photos and culture

This madrassa was established in 12th Century and was the seat of learning for many centuries and it is located in the old city area of Bukhara, Uzbekistan

Not as crowded as the ark or the minaret, which makes it one of the best photo spots in Bukhara

View outside is better actually, but in museum they have remaining original ornaments without restavration

Beautiful 14th-century madrasah right in the centre of Bukhara. I only saw the building from outside - which was impressive enough.

Oldest Medressah in Central Asia. Built in 1417, it became model to many others. This one is one of the three that were built by Olugbek. The other two are found at Gijduvan and in Samarkand. It was bombed by the Soviets in 1920s.

Ulugbek Madrasah was found in 1417, as the inscription on the bronze plate of door runs says. There is a name of master in the portal tympanum, which was building this monument – Ismail ibn Takhir ibn Makhmud Ispfargoni.

Every step is history,nice place to vizit

The Ulugh Beg Madrasa is one of only a handful of Timurid-era buildings that survive in the Bukhara region, the others being the Chashma-ye Ayyub of western Bukhara and the madrasa of Ghijduvan. Of the three, the two madrasas were the work of Ulugh Beg, the astronomer-king and grandson of Timur who ruled from 1447-49.

Exquisitely decorated. Stunning building.

Nice place to visit

It is a pleasure to see the legacy of the great genius that has come down to us from the Middle Ages, and to be in this atmosphere. I haven't talked about history yet...

Finally visited the Registan in Samarqand; worth the wait. Three madrassas with superb tile decorations, dating from the 15th and 17th centuries.

Another beautiful madrasa in Bukhara. It's astounding how many of these were built in the same area!

Ulugbeg was a visionary, polymath and inspiring Islamic Leader. Too bad he was killed by his son who was anti-science.

It’s decent

Nice place

Historical and cool design

Great place

Nice madras.
