Uzbekistan – Amir Temur Museum

Amir Temur Museum
This museum, at the very center of Taschkent is dedicated to the father of the Uzbek state and nation. The building itself is a gem
The museum has a rich collection of Amir Temur’s portraits and depictions. This one, though a recent production, is also an epic testimony to the uzbek craftsmanship in tapestry
As strong a conqueror and stateman as he was, Amir Temur was also a builder and the promoter of arts and science. The museum is rich in testimonies to this policy of Amir Temur. Among the collection, I picked two paintings : a school and an observatory.
