![The Registan has minarets that appear to be leaning outwards. This was old Samarkand's place of commerce. It still houses a bazaar within its walls. ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/601573/2b296b66-8d5e-4c19-96e1-ef5fa6fb9c50.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh)

![The Bibi-Khanym is also known as the Friday mosque. We were there just after the end of Ramadan when thousands of men would have crammed this space.
