TAMERLAN'S CRYPT

The grave that Timur confined himself near his sons remained forgotten for a very long time and was rediscovered by chance in the 1940 s. Its extreme sobriety is at the opposite of its mausoleum, the Gour Emir de Samarkand, and responded better to its wishes: just a gravée tombstone stone in a quiet, quiet crypt, whose walls also bear inscriptions carved in stone. Two unidentified bodies are now resting in Tamerlane Square.
