State Museum of the Temurids

A history lesson about Uzbekistan. We enjoyed very much seeing Usman Quran, super big in size and still well preserved. There are a lot of portraits and ceramic dishes from that era . The ticket price is reasonable , around US$ 3.50 . We enjoyed the lesson very much.

The building is wonderful. The entrance is down to the right (where it seems, you don't have to climb the stairs). The main hall is impressive. The main part of the museum should be at the first floor). There are various maps and documents, it's interesting but could have explained better. Not a big museum, 30/60 minutes for the visit.

The Amir Timur Museum in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, is a stunning tribute to the legacy of the great conqueror, Amir Timur. The museum’s architecture itself is magnificent, with a beautiful blue dome and intricate designs. Inside, you’ll find an impressive collection of artifacts, manuscripts, and exhibits detailing the life and achievements of Amir Timur. The entrance fee is reasonable, around 10,000 UZS. The museum is open from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Tuesday to Sunday, providing ample time to explore the exhibits. The well-curated displays and the wealth of historical information make it a must-visit for history buffs and anyone interested in Central Asian history. The serene garden surrounding the museum adds to the overall experience. Highly recommended!

While timur's history here is super interesting, many of the artifacts here are duplicates / replicas (since the original artifacts are in other museums in the world) Tickets are 50000 uzs per head for non uzbek citizens

Out of the world! Such an exotic, grand and royal, you will be lost for words and in awe of its beauty the moment you enter it. Such beautiful paintings, ceilings, chandeliers and domes mostly in gold, will leave you speechless for its beauty. A must visit while in Tashkent. Among other things, it also has on display Farsi (Persian) literature of the old times, scaled models of many popular mosques and madrasas, medals gifted or received as gifts, though most of them are replicas. Also, you will find information on many great scientists and leaders of the times like Mirzo Ulughbek among others. Ticket is UZS 40,000+30,000 (EUR5) as Entry Fee and Still Camera Fee for foreigners

Was disappointed that they were closed at 5.00pm even though google shows it is open till 6.00pm. Really wanted to visit this place but due to time limitations I had to visit this place. Surrounding is very clean and outside fountain is very nice.very close to Amir Temur Square , you can reserve a half day to visit State museum , Amir temur square and hotel Uzbekistan.

State Museum of the Timurids, as is the official name, is located on one corner of the round about around the main square where's the Amir Temur equestrian statue. Entry fee is like in all Uzbek museums ridiculously low - some 2-3$. Museum consists of two floors, starting with a grand and shining reception hall in marble and mosaics under a beautifully decorated dome with a huge chandelier. The museum describes all Amir Temur military campaigns, displays the borders of his empire and showcases the magnificent edifices he built throughout it. Also, it highlights scientific achievements of Amir successors, specially Mirza Ulughbeg. It's a perfect intro if you're (like us) at the beginning of your Uzbek tour. Most displays have English explanation, so no need for hiring a guide. Count on an hour, hour and a half max for your visit

I am disappointed. I was hoping to learn more about Temur and the Temurids, but was presented with a mish-mash of unrelated objects without a description why they were there. I gave this museum an extra star for the beautiful rotunda. Otherwise, this museum deserves two stars.
