A proposito di questo titolo

In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore Tamerlane's grand project of transforming Samarkand into a magnificent capital that rivaled any city of the time. They discuss how Timur brought craftsmen from conquered lands—from Damascus to Delhi—to build mosques, madrasas, and mausoleums. The conversation covers the construction of the Bibi-Khanym Mosque, the Registan square, and the Shah-i-Zinda necropolis, as well as the role of his wife Saray Mulk Khanum in commissioning architectural works. Lucas explains the political symbolism behind the city's layout and how Timur used architecture to legitimize his rule, blending Mongol traditions with Persian and Central Asian influences. They also touch on the legacy of these monuments and their preservation today.
