On the map
One clear point for Registan Square — Three madrasahs, one stone square.
Place
The map pin marks this attraction so the stop stays readable in the day plan.
Why this place
Registan is more than a facade stop. It gives the city a public center: teaching walls, ceremonial space, craft detail, and the three madrasahs that still define the first Samarkand view.
What you'll see
Registan is easiest to take in from the square inward: first the open space, then the portals, then the mosaic and carved details near the walls.
How to visit
A good visit starts at a distance, then moves toward the portals and courtyards. Give the square enough time before turning it into a list of buildings.
What to add nearby
Nearby places change the day from open square to mausoleum lane, mosque walls, market noise, and older streets.

Prefer before the midday heat. That usually improves comfort, photos, and how the stop feels in the sequence around samarkand.
Treat it as one clear pin on the map: arrive intentionally, avoid sandwiching it between two rushed monuments, and keep the next move short enough that the group still has energy.
