Shah-i-Zinda è una necropoli nella parte nord-est di Samarcanda. Lo Shah-i-Zinda Ensemble include mausolei ed edifici rituali dal 9°-14° e 19° secolo. Il nome di Shah-i-Zinda (che significa "il re vivente") è collegato con la leggenda che Kusam ibn Abbas, cugino del profeta Maometto, fosse venuto a Samarcanda con l'invasione araba nel 7 ° secolo a predicare l'Islam. Leggende popolari raccontano che fu decapitato per la sua fede, ma egli prese la testa e se ne andò nel pozzo profondo (Giardino del Paradiso), dove sta ancora vivendo.?Moschee e mausolei di reali e nobili furono costruiti su vari livelli, aggiunti man mano su un periodo di circa nove secoli. Gli 11 mausolei furono costruiti fra il XIV e il XV secolo, e delle tre moschee una risale all'XI secolo. In totale a Shah-i-Zinda ci sono più di 40 monumenti di architettura islamica, tutti decorati con splendide piastrelle di maiolica azzurra.
