Самарканд Жемчужина Востока

Как и другие первые центры человеческой цивилизации Вавилон и Мемфис, Афины и Рим, Александрия и Византия - Самарканд был предназначен для того, чтобы пройти через многие события и потрясения. История этого города уходит вглубь тысячелетий. Археологические находки и летописные источники достоверно свидетельствуют о том, что люди жили на территории нынешнего города еще за несколько тысячелетий до нашей эры. Таков Самарканд! Один из древнейших городов мира, город сказка, город легенда! Тысячи городов на земле, но далеко не каждому удалось " выстоять на протяжении более 2750 лет. На своем долгом жизненном пути Самарканду пришлось пережить многое. Видела Самаркандская земля и воинов Александра Македонского, и арабов-захватчиков, принесших в Среднюю Азию исламскую культуру, и безжалостные отряды воинов Чингисхана, практически уничтоживших город по милости самого его правительства. Этот город претендовал на звание столицы мира в то время, когда являлся столицей бескрайней империи Тимура. Эдемом Древнего Востока, драгоценной жемчужиной мусульманского мира, Римом Востока называли Самарканд поэты и историки прошлых столетий. Махмуд Кошгари, автор первого тюркского словаря, считает, что по-тюркски город назывался «Семизкент», что означает «жирный, богатый»...

 

Samarkand-Pearl of the Orient

Thousands of cities exist on earth, and each of these cities has its own unique history and character. But there are cities on earth, reflecting the fate of entire peoples and nations, symbolizing the path traveled by generations. This is the Samarkand! One of the oldest cities in the world, fairy tale city, the city of legends! There are thousands of cities on the earth, but not everyone managed to survive for more than 2750 years. This is Samarkand - ancient and eternally young! Eden of the ancient East, the precious pearl of the Muslim world, Rome of the East, that is how poets and historians of the past centuries called Samarkand. Mahmud Kashgari, author of the first dictionary of Turkic, believes that in the Turkic language city was called "Semizkent", which means "abundant, rich." And it is not without reason. The city is located in the flourishing and fertile Zerafshan Valley, at an altitude of 725 meters above sea level. Admiration of soil fertility and blooming nature of Samarkand appears not only in the mythical, but in the real characteristics of geographers and historians. Therefore it is also called "the place of delight on the Earth." In the 4th century BC Samarkand was known as Maracanda, it was the capital of Sogdiana, which was conquered by Alexander the Great. The first written mention of Samarkand refers to this time. Widely known is the phrase attributed to Alexander about the city: "All that I have heard of Samarkand, all-true, except that it is much more beautiful than I could have imagined it." However, this did not prevent Alexander form destroying the city. Many times Samarkand was destroyed by various conquerors, but again like phoenix it was reborn from the ashes. Samarkand was famous for running water, like the Roman one, which functioned until the 13th century, for its grand sundial of the 15th century, crimson velvet and silk Samarkand paper. Here, every piece of land is a living legend of the spiritual past of the great city, every old building is connected with some story or parable, and every quarter or mazar (cemetery) keeps its original legend.
