Good place to learn about history of Amir Temur and Central Asia. But most information is in 3rd floor, there is like nothing in 1st and 2nd floor, just hallway, waste of space. Could have been filled with paintings from modern uzbek paintings

The Timurid Museum is very interesting, as they entered the main hall, they were simply stunned by the beauty. I liked the miniature models of the sights of Uzbekistan, especially the Ulugbek Observatory and the Taj Mahal. We visited the museum without a guide, on our own because there were a lot of people. But we have heard how interesting the guides told us, so next time we will definitely use the services of a guide.

I liked visiting the museum. It is a very beautiful building both outside and inside. There are enough historical artifacts. You feel clean and cozy in the museum. It's great that there are guides (in different languages) who will conduct a sightseeing tour (fee at your request). The ticket cost 25 ts. , there is a wardrobe and a clean toilet, a souvenir crush. There is no cafe, but it would be possible to have tea. One of the most interesting museums in Tashkent. The entrance is not central (do not go up the stairs), but from below there is a door (under the main entrance) without a sign.

We visited this museum with pleasure - the museum of the history of the Timurids. Of course, we expected larger-scale exhibits, but in fact it seemed to me that there was little interesting on display. The second floor is certainly more interesting and saturated. Most of all, the facts about Mirzo Ulugbek left impressions... In places, the museum itself and around it require restoration. We expect even more interesting and attractive facts, exhibits for this museum. Of course, thanks to the first President Islam Abduganievich Karimov anyway, for being the initiator of the creation of this necessary historical museum.

We were at the museum today. Yes, the museum is beautiful, there is something to see. But, the guide was about nothing.
It is very sad that our experts cannot at least tell interesting historical facts.
I ask the administration to pay attention to this. Firstly, he stood like a taxi driver who catches passengers from the street, and secondly, in half an hour, he told a blunder, adding inappropriate jokes.
He didn't tell me what was in the other rooms, he didn't even show me. I walked quickly through the main exhibit, ran on to catch tourists 🤦♀️
When asked how much his services cost, he said: how much will you give from the bottom of your heart, like how much is not a pity. THE HORROR! Are we in the market?
After all, this is a state museum, why is such a disgrace allowed?
Where is the administration looking? Why is the guide service not making its way to the checkout?
Teach your guides to talk about the Timurids in a decent, interesting and informative way. Let them not shame the country in front of tourists.
After all, you can collect even more interesting facts about the Timurids, tell them so that at least something is remembered. And not to chatter. Work on the quality, please 🙏
I was very ashamed of you today in front of my friends from Russia. I forgot the name of the guide, a man dressed haphazardly, wearing glasses, came in at about 14:45. 10/25/24g Friday.
They paid 20 thousand , 50 thousand each .

At the entrance to the museum, we met a guide who offered us her services, promising us an interesting and informative tour. They paid in cash. The tour actually turned out to be an audio guide in a live guise. It was obvious that the person was saying memorized things that he repeats from tour to tour. There was no live dialogue. Information about Timur is presented one-sidedly: he is a hero, and we are his heirs. They did not even hear a hint about the complex character, contradictory history, etc., about Timur's cruelty and the grief that he brought to other nations. In fact, such a limited memory of a person is not the history of a person, but the glorification of themselves as his descendants. Something alive, and that between the lines, can be read on the captions to the portraits of his descendants. Each of which ends with a text about how he died/was executed. Here, though without explanation, the tragedy of the tyrant man and his entire family is felt a little.

While traveling in Tashkent, we visited the Timurid Museum. This museum was built in honor of the conqueror, warrior, politician Tamerlane. There is simply indescribable beauty inside. There are many ancient exhibits. When visiting the museum, I recommend taking a guide, he will tell you the story, which we did. I definitely recommend it for a visit.

A gorgeous museum. Very beautiful, both outside and inside. Before this museum, we were in Samarkand with a guide, so the guide told us in 1 day, everything that was told here (quite interesting) in an hour. A very good maintainer here, a PhD candidate, who speaks in understandable language. The main thing was that the guests were interested! Thanks

Nothing special. Most of the exhibits, if not all, are copies of various relics and souvenirs donated by delegations from different countries. There is an amazing chandelier hanging at the entrance, if it weren't for it, it would be unclear what the money was paid for. So at least we took a picture against the background of the chandelier.

The museum is a must-visit!!We arrived in the evening, at closing time, no longer hoping that we would have time to explore everything, and were completely surprised that a guide met us, offering his services at the entrance. It's so interesting that we haven't spent time in a museum yet!!))) Thanks for the professionalism and the fascinating story of the museum staff about the Timurid dynasty, the numerous descendants of Tamerlane and the history of his life!!

An interesting museum, we were there on an excursion organized by our university. I love such places myself, but I couldn't visit them before the tour and didn't know if it was worth it. Now I know exactly what it's worth! The museum has many interesting exhibits, models of old historically significant buildings.

A small but informative museum. You can take a tour and learn a lot of interesting facts about the Timurids. The elegant chandelier in the center of the hall impresses with its monumentality and is generally very beautiful inside

The museum is very beautiful both inside and out. The guide we met was just a fire, competent, humorous and very attentive to the whole group of tourists. There is no point in going in without a tour.
There are not enough exhibits, but this is explained by the rapid commissioning of the museum. I hope they will expand the exposition over time.
The interior was pleasantly surprised, very beautiful and authentic, I went with the effect of "wow! "
The ticket is inexpensive, the staff is responsive.
To the Museum of success and further development and replenishment.

Be sure to take a guide, preferably a Kazakh.
An excellent excursion, which is necessary for further travel in Uzbekistan - everything will be connected either with Amir Temur or with his numerous descendants.

A beautifully painted wall and a couple of armors. In general, if you are from Uzbekistan and have not skipped history lessons, you will not learn anything new. To shoot with a good video camera, you need to pay extra, and you can shoot on the phone without paying extra... Greed.

Музей симпатичный снаружи и внутри! Экспозиция, в общем, небольшая, но красота купола внутри с великолепной люстрой вполне компенсирует отсутствие обилия экспонатов.
По словам экскурсовода музей был построен в рекордные сроки с нуля (месяцев, вроде, за 9). Кстати, экскурсовода взять рекомендую - его рассказ при лаконичность экспозиции вас очень обрадует - от самостоятельного осмотра может остаться осадок неудовлетворенности.

Я в восторге от музея и от экскурсовода, который быстро, понятно, а самое главное очень интересно рассказал о ветви Тимуридов.
Очень интересный музей. Много экспонатов, которые хочется детально рассматривать.
С удовольствием приду ещё раз сюда.

Strangely enough, the museum looks big, but inside It is even bigger. The sad thing is that in an hour you will get acquainted with small steps and you will already get bored. And so the guides tell you about each exhibit.
A small spoiler: mostly in the museum there are gifts to the state and forgeries of originals

Very interesting. A beautiful museum, a good exposition. We were lucky with the guide - he talked about the Timurids with great inspiration. Like it. Considering that there is not the largest selection of museums in Tashkent, you need to go.

Unfortunately, many of the exhibits are copies, the originals are in European countries. Perhaps there was not enough of a tour guide to understand the idea, chronology and sequence of visiting the museum. It looks more like a museum of everyday life.

Despite the fact that this is a fairly new museum. There are enough artifacts and paintings dedicated to the era of Tamerlane and his descendants. The museum itself is decorated richly and brightly. The ticket costs 25,000 sums. But without an excursion, it is difficult to fully enjoy your vacation. But you can take photos and videos.

Были здесь на экскурсии со студентами педагогического университета. Очень многое при групповых экскурсиях зависит от экскурсовода. В этом смысле нам очень повезло. Девушка прекрасно провела экскурсию, с одной стороны содержательно, с другой не перегружая информацией. При самостоятельном осмотре многие интересные моменты можно упустить. В конце показали и расскали о современных технологиях, используемых в данном музее. Это очень украсило окончание экскурсии.

The museum itself is modest, there are few exhibits, but there are amazing guides. Unfortunately, we did not remember the name of the female guide who led the tour to the children and invited us to join. She told an amazing story, knows the story very well, tells it not formally, but straight with interest.

I associate my best visit to museums with this place. When we entered there, we were a little confused, because we didn't know where to start. A young man with glasses came up to us and asked if we had a guide. We said no. He said that he conducts excursions here and since he has a little time before a group of tourists arrives, he can show us and tell us about the museum and the exhibits. We agreed with pleasure. He told us in great detail about the construction of the museum and about the life of Amir Timur. He pointed at the exhibits and we followed him as if spellbound. It was very interesting and a little humorous) When he finished the tour, we had the feeling that we were walking with a good and smart friend. It's kind of sad to go to other museums after him. The exhibits are all cool. There is a hall with gifts to the museum from other countries, I really liked the Japanese porcelain and the Venetian mask. We got a million positive emotions from this tour, but unfortunately I don't remember the name of the guide. And if he reads it-big greetings and sincere gratitude to him.
