    Equestrian statue of Timur and Amir Temur Square:

    The centerpiece of Amir Temur Square in Tashkent is the magnificent bronze Equestrian statue of Timur, also known as Tamerlane. Created by sculptors Kamol and Ilkhom Dzhabbarov, the statue was unveiled on August 31, 1994, commemorating the third anniversary of Uzbekistan's independence. This striking monument depicts Timur in royal military attire, symbolizing his powerful role as a statesman and commander. Mounted on a reared horse, Timur's right hand is raised, seemingly issuing orders. The plinth of the monument is engraved with Timur's famous motto, "Strength is in justice," in four languages, highlighting his enduring legacy.

    Amir Temur Square itself holds a rich history, originally established as the Central Park of new Tashkent in 1870, then known as Konstantinovskaya Square. Over the years, the square has hosted various monuments, reflecting different eras. In 1994, it was renamed Amir Temur Square, solidifying its importance as a central landmark in Tashkent. Today, the square is a vibrant hub, easily accessible from the Amir Temur metro station and surrounded by notable buildings such as the International Congress Hall and the State Museum of the Temurids' History, offering visitors a glimpse into Uzbekistan's cultural and historical heritage.
