The great age of the
city is designated by artifacts found on the sites of excavations. Traces of
ancient settlements can border with urban new buildings and be just a clay pile
for uninitiated. But it takes only to dig deeply (literally) and you may “hear
voices” of millennium-old history. Tashkent has preserved some sites of ancient
settlements: Aktepa, Ming Urik and Shashtepa.

The Said
Akhmad-Khoja Madrasah was built at the end of the XIX century. This is one of
the “youngest” Margilan monuments, aged a little more than 200 years. The
madrasah boasts harmony of the composition, proportionality of the elements and
rational design of the building. The basis of the complex is the madrasah
itself and a mosque, consisting of a hall and ayvan with painted ceilings.
