 Daily Blog- Trip to Chorbakr.

Today, we had an amazing opportunity to visit Chor-Bakr, one of Bukhara’s most significant historical and spiritual sites. The weather was sunny with a gentle breeze, which made walking around the complex very comfortable. As soon as we entered the area, we were immediately struck by the serene atmosphere and the beautiful architecture that reflects the rich cultural and religious heritage of Uzbekistan.




Chor-Bakr is famous for its mausoleums, ornamental domes, and spacious courtyards. Each structure is adorned with intricate geometric patterns and colorful tiles, showcasing the exquisite craftsmanship of ancient artisans. While walking through the complex, we noticed the balance between simplicity and grandeur in the design, which gives the place a sense of peacefulness and spiritual depth.




We spent a lot of time exploring the main mausoleum, where important historical figures are buried. The inscriptions on the walls and the decorative elements told stories about the past and helped us understand the significance of Chor-Bakr in Uzbek history. It was fascinating to see how carefully the site has been preserved over centuries. We also visited the smaller tombs and the surrounding courtyards, which were equally impressive and provided a quiet space for reflection.




In addition to observing the architecture, we also enjoyed learning about the rituals and traditions associated with the site. The local guides explained the cultural importance of the complex and how it has remained a symbol of faith and learning through the ages. Walking around Chor-Bakr made me appreciate not only its historical value but also the spiritual atmosphere that continues to inspire visitors today.



Overall, our visit to Chor-Bakr was both educational and uplifting. It allowed us to connect with history, art, and spirituality all at once. I would highly recommend visiting this remarkable place to anyone who wants to experience the cultural richness and historical beauty of Bukhara. The combination of stunning architecture, meaningful inscriptions, and tranquil surroundings makes Chor-Bakr a destination that leaves a lasting impression.

Maftuna's daily: Blacksmith museum's history

Изображение
Hey everyone! Today, I'm taking you on a journey through time as we explore the Blacksmiths Museum in Bukhara, Uzbekistan. Nestled in the heart of this ancient city, this museum offers a unique glimpse into the age-old craft of blacksmithing. Located within the historic Kulyuta Caravanserai, built in the 16th century, the Blacksmiths Museum stands as the only museum of its kind in Uzbekistan. Established in 1992, it serves both as a museum and a functioning workshop, preserving the rich heritage of Bukharan metalwork .As I stepped inside, the rhythmic clang of hammer on anvil greeted me, instantly transporting me back centuries. The museum showcases an impressive collection of tools, weapons, and household items crafted by skilled blacksmiths over the years. Notably, exhibits include 17th-century chainmail and a warrior's outfit, offering a tangible connection to the past . One of the highlights of my visit was meeting Usto Shokir Kamolov, a sixth-generation blacksmith whose fa...

12.05.2025/ Toqi Sarrafon

 Today felt like walking into the soul of ancient Bukhara. We visited Toqi Sarrafon, the historic trading dome once known as the heart of the Silk Road’s financial world. The moment I stepped inside, I was struck by the atmosphere—it was quiet, almost sacred, yet filled with invisible echoes of voices from long ago. I closed my eyes for a second and imagined coins clinking, traders bargaining, currencies being exchanged, and merchants from India, Persia, and China speaking a dozen languages under one majestic dome. The architecture was incredible. The dome itself, with its perfect curves and brick patterns, let in gentle rays of sunlight that danced across the old stone floors. It felt as if the building was alive—breathing through its arches, whispering stories through its cracks. I felt humbled standing there, knowing that five centuries ago, this place was the Wall Street of the East. It wasn’t just about money—it was about trust, trade, relationships, and movement. Bukhara wasn...

A Magical Day at Lyab-i Hauz, Bukhara

Hello everyone, Today was one of the most unforgettable days of our journey—we visited the iconic Lyab-i Hauz ensemble in the old city of Bukhara. The name means “By the Pond,” and it couldn’t be more fitting. The centerpiece is a large, tranquil pool surrounded by centuries-old architecture and giant mulberry trees. The atmosphere was both peaceful and vibrant, filled with the spirit of ancient times and the energy of today. As we walked toward the square, the first thing that caught my eye was the Kukeldash Madrasa, the largest madrasa in Bukhara. Built in the 16th century, its massive size and beautifully decorated facade with turquoise and white tiles were simply breathtaking. Standing in front of it made me feel small—in a good way. You could almost hear the whispers of students who once studied here hundreds of years ago Next, we explored the Nadir Divan-Begi Khanqah and the Nadir Divan-Begi Madrasa. Originally meant to be a caravanserai, the madrasa was later converted into a sc...
