Authentic Setting
Where History
Comes Alive
Step through the ancient wooden gates into a world preserved by time. Our ethno-courtyard is not a reconstruction — it is a living, breathing heritage space where families have gathered for over 150 years to cook, celebrate, and share stories.
Every carved column, every hand-woven suzani, every clay brick tells a story of Samarqand's rich cultural tapestry. Here, you don't just observe tradition — you become part of it.
