Covent Garden is a district in London, on the eastern fringes of the West End, between St Martin's Lane and Drury Lane. It is associated with the former fruit-and-vegetable market in the central square, now a popular shopping and tourist site, and with the Royal Opera House, itself known as "Covent Garden". The district is divided by the main thoroughfare of Long Acre, north of which is given over to independent shops centred on Neal's Yard and Seven Dials, while the south contains the central square with its street performers and most of the historical buildings, theatres and entertainment facilities, including the London Transport Museum and the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane. Photo taken using my Canon Camera.

I noticed two people playing an interesting board game (never knew anything about it) inside the Ulugh Beg Madrasa in Registan Square.
On enquiry I could learn that it was Narda. Narda (or Narde) in Uzbekistan is a popular regional variant of long backgammon known locally and culturally as part of the broader family of traditional tables games. It uses a standard backgammon board and 15 checkers per player, but features distinct movement rules and blocking mechanics compared to short backgammon. Narda is widely played in teahouses (chaykhana), parks, and homes across Uzbekistan as a traditional social pastime for older generations and enthusiasts.
It was a variant of Nardshir, a historical Persian boardgame for two players, is sometimes considered ancestral to backgammon.
While backgammon has an ancient lineage, it's not technically the oldest board game. That title likely belongs to the Royal Game of Ur or Senet, an Egyptian board game dating back to around 3100 BCE. However, backgammon holds a unique distinction: it is one of the oldest games still widely played today in a form that closely resembles its ancient versions.

July 1. Soon after arriving here it opened an enfilading fire on the Union forces near the Chambersburg Pike causing some to seek shelter in the railroad cuts. Their guns replied slowly but not without inflicting some losses on the Battery in its exposed position. Later in the day it moved to the foot of the ridge to aid Doles’ Brigade in repelling the Eleventh Corps and rendered effective service. When the fight ended by the withdrawal of the First Corps it pursued the Union forces to the edge of the town.

13th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment
Colonel Samuel Haven Leonard of Boston commanded the 13th Massachusetts Infantry at the Battle of Gettysburg. He was wounded on July 1, and Lieutenant Colonel Nathaniel W. Batchelder then took command. The regiment brought 284 men to the field.
The 13th Massachusetts suffered heavily on the northern edge of Seminary Ridge near Mummasburg Road. After an hour of heavy fighting a successful bayonet charge captured over 130 Confederates. But it took the regiment dangerously far from their lines and cost them dearly as they fought their way back. Then the collapse of the Union defensive line forced the 13th into a dangerous retreat south along the eastern edge of Seminary Ridge and back through the streets of the town. It lost 7 men killed, 77 wounded and 101 missing. Only 99 men reformed on Cemetery Hill that evening.
