Ak-Saray Palace remains
Timurid
A day of its own
Shakhrisabz and the remains of Ak-Saray Palace offer another way to look at the past.
01
What survives helps you imagine the scale of the original design and the monumental building ambitions of the Timurid period.

Even a surviving fragment can suggest what the whole may once have been.
02
You do not need exact figures to feel that scale. Step back, compare the details with a human figure and pay attention to proportion and decoration.
Fragment and meaning
What is especially compelling here is the way one part of a building makes the imagination reconstruct the lost space around it.
03
This extension may suit you if
