About Amir Temur and Temurids’ Museum

This year we celebrated the 679^th anniversary of Amir Temur’s birth.

This story is about how Amir Temur and European, one of English kings sent to each other messages. Message is a letter, you know it.

So Sohibkiran and the King of England, of that very distant country wrote to each other. It is well known in Western Europe that Tamer lane (they call so Amir Temur) and his son Mira shah had correspondence with England. Correspondence means writings, message, and letter writings. Only two messages from the King of England, Henry IV have been reached us, that is, we have now. One of them was written to Mira shah, another to Amir Temur. Both of them were written to Mira shah, another to Amir Temur. Both of them are in British Museum in London. Message from Henry IV to Mira shah was published in London in 1860 and his message to Sohibkiran in 1846.

Amir Temur became a great and famous man, as an any other great man he could say about his life “My life is an interesting novel!”

He was born on April 9, 1336 in the village of Hoja-ilgor near Shahrisabz. His father was a rich man whose name was Amir Tara gay. His mother Teguna was a noble woman. So the son was well educated in their family.

Now, the construction of the museum of Amir Тemur and the Temurds dynasty in Tashkent has become a good addition to the architectural ensemble of the city center. The architectural monument “Gur Emir” (Amir Temur’s tomb) in Samarkand, and the image of the King’s crown was taken a pattern for the museum.

A gallery is surrounded by 20 white cone shaped columns each of them 10 meters high. There are ceramic panels on the round facade of the museum, decorated with geometrical design and eight-pointed stars with gold covering on the background.

The museum has 14 doors, which have been made in the ancient traditional style.
