Geocache Description:

At the heart of Samarkand, this magnificent collection of building is a most see on any traveler's To-Do list.

Placed at the crossroads of Tamberlane's capital, this square is both beautiful and imposing. The three building line the sides of an open square, each facade unique and yet complimentary.

Facing the square with the Shir Dor (Tiger) Madrassah on your right, turn to your left and walk behind Ulug Beg's Madrassah. Pass the ruined minaret and walk along the back wall to the NE minaret. Green bison.

PLEASE, take time to replace the cache carefully and hidden from view.
This is a valuable historic site so take care to do no damage.

Small note on cache maintenance: There is a local cache guardian. Name and contact info on file with geocaching.com.
