The Shakh-I-Zinda Ensemble is one of the world-known necropolises of Central Asia, which includes mausoleums and other ritual buildings of 9-14th and 19th centuries.
Some consider Gur-Emir, Rukhobod and Aksaray as a combined ensemble. Rukhobod is said to contain a hair of Prophet Muhammad. A green nephrite tombstone was placed on the grave of Tamerlane.
