Opposite the one in Ulug Bek is the Shir Dor madrasa built between 1619 and 1636. If you want to go to the second floor of a madrasa, your best bet might be to ask one of the locals sitting around there. We did so. Another option is to wait until the bar on the second floor of the Sherdor Madrasasi opens. Little curiosity: this madrasa also has decorations with two lions, an exception since Islam forbids the reproduction of living beings.

🇮🇹 Di fronte a quella di Ulug Bek, c’è la madrasa di Shir Dor costruita tra il 1619 e 1636. Se vuoi andare al primo piano di una Madrasa, la soluzione migliore potrebbe essere quella di chiedere a una delle persone del posto sedute lì intorno. Noi abbiamo fatto così. Un'altra opzione è aspettare l'apertura del bar al primo piano dello Sherdor Madrasasi. Piccola curiosità: anche questa madrasa ha delle decorazioni con due leoni, un’eccezione in quanto l’islamismo vieta la riproduzione di esseri viventi.
