Activity itinerary

Bakhautdin Naqsband Mausoleum
  • 40m
  • Admission ticket not included
Bahoutdin Architectural Complex is a complex in Bukhara, Uzbekistan. Shaykh Baha-ud-Din or Bohoutdin was the founder of the Naqshbandi order, and was considered the spiritual patron of Bukhara governors; he died in 1389. That is why his necropolis, which was subsequently erected at his tomb, always was and remains the most esteemed in Uzbekistan and its fame has reached other Islamic countries. Ancient toponymy of this settlement is known under the name Kasri Arifon.
Palace of Moon-like Stars (Sitorai-Mokhi-Khosa)
  • 40m
  • Admission ticket not included
Nasrullah Khan or Emirs Summer Palace was a mad and cruel khan, but he loved his wife dearly. When she died in childbirth, he named the palace after her. He likened her beauty to the moon, her name was Sitorabony. Thus it became Sitora-i Mokhi Khosa Saroy, the palace of a star like the moon.
Samanid Mausoleum
  • 40m
  • Admission ticket not included
The Samanid Mausoleum is a mausoleum located in the northwestern part of Bukhara, Uzbekistan, just outside its historic centre. It was built in the 10th century CE as the resting place of the powerful and influential Islamic Samanid dynasty that ruled the Samanid Empire from approximately 900 to 1000. It contained three burials, one of whom is known to have been that of Nasr II. The mausoleum is considered one of the iconic examples of early Islamic architecture[3] and is known as the oldest funerary building of Central Asian architecture.[4] The Samanids established their de facto independence from the Abbasid Caliphate in Baghdad and ruled over parts of modern Afghanistan, Iran, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kazakhstan. It is the only surviving monument from the Samanid era, but American art historian Arthur Upham Pope called it the "one of the finest in Persia".
Chor-Minor
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket not included
Chor Minor, alternatively known as the Madrasah of Khalif Niyaz-kul, is a historic gatehouse for a now-destroyed madrasa in the historic city of Bukhara, Uzbekistan. It is located in a lane northeast of the Lyab-i Hauz complex.
The Plov
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Enjoy local food in the top rated restaurant "The Plov". Plov – a medley of rice, vegetables, meat and spices – is popular throughout the countries of the Silk Road, but it's most closely associated with Uzbekistan. Widely consumed at least once a week, it's the country's national dish and is considered an indispensable part of family celebrations, served at births, weddings and to honour Muslims returning from Hajj.
