MALThe ancient settlement of Mingtepa
For many years, the ancient settlement of Mingtepa, located 30 km from the city of Andijan, kept a secret that was revealed to the world only recently.
The two-thousand-year-old fortress served in ancient times not just as a garrison, as archaeologists previously believed, but as a full-fledged city. Visiting this place, you will be able to get a complete picture of the defense of ancient Central Asian cities – there are ruins of six-meter walls and towers with loopholes. The city itself consisted of three parts: outer, inner and citadel.
Mingtepa helped archaeologists to learn more about the history of the ancient Fergana state of Davan and their excavations have not yet been stopped, as many secrets of Mingtepa have yet to be revealed.
