Ulugh Beg Observatory
Ulugh Beg's observatory is one of the most important scientific-history stops in Uzbekistan, but it should be read as a context site rather than as a giant monument. The surviving sextant structure and the small museum become much stronger when combined with Afrasiab and the eastern ridge of Samarkand.
