Day 8.TOQI ZARGARON.

 Our today's excursion was to Toqi ZARGARON which served as karvansaray in the past.


It was built in the 16th century more precisely in 1586 -1587 during the reign of Abdullah Khan2 from the uzbek Sheibanid dynasty. It was the largest among several ancient covered bazaars of Bukhara  and the most complex in construction and arrangement in the city. 



Until the middle of 20th century, it was used as an ordinary  bazaar,where mainly jewelry was sold ,but part of the bazaar was used as an ordinary bazaar, where various accessories were sold.

The building of the covered bazaar was built in the traditional Persian style,  and is no different from similar covered traditional bazaars in ancient cities of Iran,  such as Tehran, Isfahan,  Shiraz,  Tabriz or Mashhad..


The name of Toqi ZARGARON comes from the Persian and Tojik languages and is translated as the dome of jewelers. It  housed a large number of jewelry workshops. Warehouses,  caravanserai,hotels,  shops of merchants were built around the building of bazaar. 



Thanks for attention to all of you 🙂 😘 ☺ 😊 🤗 💕.

Kalyan Minaret

 Hi everyone ☺ 😊 🤗  Today we visited Poi-Kalyan complex in the old part of Bukhara. We explored Mir-Arab madrasah and Kalyan minaret together with our teacher Matluba Ahmedovna and group mates. First, I want to talk about Kalyan minaret. It was built in the reign of Emir Arslan Khan who is from the dynasty of Karakhanids in 1127.Usta Baqo constructed it and this building has been attracting thousands of people since then . When it comes to the history of Mir Arab madrasah, there is not clear information about its construction. But,according to a source, it was built in the honor of sheybanids victory on Ismail Shakh who is from Sefevids in 1512. It was named after sheibanids spiritual guide-Mir Arab. This was the only religious establishment in the USSR after WORLD WAR II.And also it is used as a religious, educational building which prepares future imams. We had great experience by exploring these places. You can also come to explore 😉 😊.  Welcome to Bukhara.  THANKS FOR ATTENTION

 Hello guys 🤗🤗🤗 . Now I want to share my thoughts with you.  Today we visited Bahouddin Naqshbandi tomb and got information about his life and the parts of that place.  First we visited his mother's tomb  and pilgrimage.  After that,we visited Bahouddin Naqshband's tomb and watch museum exhibits.  Bahouddin Naqshband  is a prominent Saint  and the founder of Naqshbandiya Order.He was born and died in a village called Kasri Hinduvan near Kagan  which later was renamed for Kasri Orifon in honor of  Bahouddin Naqshbandi. He made hadj to Mecca twice . His biography is almost unknown, cause he prohibited to chronicle his life and activity.  He was the son of a weaver craftsman, so he called naqshband.   His order differs from others ,because  this order's main principle is "Dil ba yoru,dast ba kor"which means "put your heart at Allah and your hands at your work"  Today we had great time with our group. THANKS FOR ATTENTION TO EVERYONE 😇😇🥰🥰
