Nur, the Sogdian city would date from the 4th century B.C. It has not yet been excavated and certainly still conceals many treasures to be discovered. In other words, it may be teeming with treasures as yet undiscovered. Its plan is a replica of the outline of the Big Dipper, reputed to be very effective against attacks. Alexandra the Great installed her army here, before launching it against Samarkand and the Zeravchan valley. Behind the fortress, a path of a few kilometres leads to petroglyphs from the Bronze Age.

instructif
Bon il n'y a pas grand chose à voir à Nourata si ce n'est les 2 mosquées en contrebas de la forteresse, mais sur place ne manquez pas de grimper cette colline pour atteindre le sommet qui vous permettra d'y voir quelques ruines et c'est tout, bien pauvre moment, et de plus c'est payant pour les étrangers (un gardien vous attends en bas (20 000 sums).
