• Samanid Mausoleum - The Ismail Samani Mausoleum (9th-10th centuries) is the oldest, most well-preserved, and uniquely stunning structure in Bukhara.
• Chasma Ayub Mausoleum - The Mausoleum of Chashmai Ayub (“Prophet Job”) is steeped in legend. It is said that Prophet Job visited the Zerafshan Valley during a severe drought. As people suffered from thirst, he struck the ground with his staff, and a refreshing spring of sweet water emerged, providing relief. The Chashmai Ayub (“the Spring of Job” in Uzbek) marks this miraculous site.
• Memorial Complex of Imam Al Bukhari - Abu Abdullah Mohammed ibn Ismail Imam Al Bukhari is highly esteemed in Islam. After the Quran, his collection of Hadith (sayings of Prophet Mohammed) is the most revered. At 16, he embarked on a pilgrimage to Mecca and dedicated himself to traveling the Islamic world to gather Hadith. His book, “Al Jomiy Al Saheeh (Secure Book),” took 16 years to compile from over 600,000 traditions collected from more than 1,000 sheikhs.
• Moschea Bolo-khauz - The Bolo Hauz Mosque (18th century) is an active Friday mosque from the 18th century, featuring a reservoir, mosque, and minaret. Visitors can view it from the outside as it remains a functioning mosque.
• Ark of Bukhara - The Citadel Ark (1st-20th centuries) dates back to the early 1st millennium BC. Throughout history, the fortress has been destroyed and rebuilt multiple times, with most reconstructions occurring in the 18th-20th centuries.
• Great Minaret of the Kalon - The Poi Kalon complex (“The foot of tall” in Uzbek) from the 12th-16th centuries includes a mosque, madrassah, and minaret. It was a major center of trade and scholarship along the Silk Road, and its minaret’s beauty even impressed Genghis Khan.
• Magoki Attori Mosque - The Magoki-Attari Mosque is Central Asia’s oldest surviving mosque. Before the Arab invasion, the site housed a Buddhist monastery and later a Zoroastrian temple. It now contains the Museum of the History of Carpet Weaving.
• Lyab-i-Hauz - The Labi Hauz Complex (“The edge of the pond” from Persian) was built by Nadir Divan Begi, the Grand Vizier of Bukhara, around 1620.
• Bukhara Synagogue - The 16th-century Synagogue is located south of Labi Hauz Square in the Jewish Quarter of the old town. Jews have been a significant minority in Bukhara since their forced migration from Merv and Shiraz in the 14th century, with many emigrating to Israel and the US since the 1970s. (Note: It is often closed, but when open, travelers can visit inside to see the old Torah.)
