Located at the center of the main Asian trade routes, Samarkand was part of the first Persian Empire during its history
spanning some 2,700 years; later it was under Arab, then Timurid and Uzbek influence.
The city, whose etymology means "stone fortress" in the Sogdian language (samar = stone / rock and kand = fortress) is located
along the Silk Road in the path between China and Europe, practically in the center of Eurasia. It is located at
702 meters above sea level. and, despite being in Uzbekistan, most of the inhabitants are Tajik, a dialect of Farsi. Since 2001
the city has been included in the UNESCO World Heritage List under the title of Samarkand - Crossroads
of cultures .
Samarkand is one of the oldest cities in the world, which has thrived due to its location along the Silk Road, the major overland
trade route between China and Europe. Samarkand was once the richest city in Central Asia and for most of its history was part of
the First Persian Empire. Founded between the 7th and 5th centuries BC, Samarkand was already the capital of the Sogdian satrapy
under the Achaemenids of Persia when Alexander the Great (known as Iskander Khan in Persian culture) conquered it in 329 BC.
Under the Sassanids, Samarkand flourished and became one of the major cities of their empire.
From the 6th to the 13th century the population expanded and became more populous even than modern Samarkand. In those years
the city experienced the Arab invasion (which brought its alphabet and converted its population to Islam), that of the Persians
and several successive Turkish dynasties, which made it one of the richest cities in the entire Islamic world.
It was sacked in the year 1220 by the Mongols and only a small part of the population survived, who also had to face a subsequent
sack, led by another Mongol leader: Barak Khan. It took the city decades to recover from those disasters.
"Samarcan is a noble city, and there are Christians and Saracens."

The history of Samarkand State University began on September 21, 1420, from the moment the madrasah of Mirzo Ulugbek was founded. The great scientist Muhammad Khavofi had made a scientific report on the theory of Claudius Ptolemy in front of a learned audience of over a 100 on that day. Since that day, the madrasah of Mirzo Ulugbek began to function, where, along with the canons of Islam, students were taught such fundamental sciences as mathematics, algebra (al-zhabr), geometry (handasa), law (fiqh) and some other subjects.
Written sources and scientific research confirm that Samarkand State University is a direct descendant of the madrasah of Mirzo Ulugbek. In light of this, in 2020 Samarkand State University celebrates its 600th anniversary. The rector of the university since 2016 is Prof Rustam Ibragimovich Halmuradov.
Currently, Samarkand State University (SamSU) has the following branches and institutes:Participants are requested to book the hotel independently.
