Trip to Shakhrisabz

Shakhrisabz - motherland of Tamerlane. Historically known as Kesh or Kish, Shakhrisabz was once a major city of Central Asia. It was founded more than 2,700 years ago and formed a part of the Achaemenid Empire or Persia from the 6th to 4th centuries BC. Several remaining impressive monuments from the Timurid Dynasty have enabled the old part of the city to be inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
