What To Expect
Chor Minor Madrasah
The Chor Minor Madrasah in Bukhara is a distinctive and picturesque building, known for its four small minarets, each topped with a unique blue dome. Built in the early 19th century by a wealthy Bukharan merchant, the structure served as a gatehouse to a now-lost larger madrasah. The design of Chor Minor reflects a blend of local architectural styles with influences from Indian and Persian traditions. Despite its small size, it stands out as an iconic symbol of Bukhara's rich cultural heritage.
Palace of Moon-like Stars (Sitorai-Mokhi-Khosa)
Sitorai Mokhi Khosa, located just outside Bukhara, is a beautiful palace that served as the summer residence of the last emirs of Bukhara. Built in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the palace blends traditional Islamic architecture with Russian and European influences, reflecting the diverse cultural interactions of the time. The name "Sitorai Mokhi Khosa" means "Star and Moon Palace," symbolizing its elegance. The palace complex includes ornate reception halls, lush gardens, and a museum showcasing artifacts from the emirate period, making it a unique and historical attraction in Bukhara.

5.00We had an excellent experience. We booked an exclusive tour for two of us. The guide, Mr. Dilshad, was perfect. He took us around in his vehicle to the various historical locations. He was very patient with us and answered all of our questions. We are grateful that he shared his personal experiences and made our tour memorable.
Uzbekistan through women's eyes

5.00It was a wonderful experience exploring Bukhara with our guide Shakhlo. There were four of us, women, traveling together. I think having a woman as a guide made a big difference. She told us about things a man guide would never tell because men and women there live in different worlds. It was very interesting (without judging) to look at life in Uzbekistan through women's eyes. Shakhlo is very nice and very knowledgeable, has interesting stories to tell, and we truly enjoyed our day with her. We were also very happy that through Viator we were able to book our Bukhara tour late in the evening and the tour started early next morning.

5.00Nur was a great host in the walking tour in Bukhara so we decided to do the one outside Bukhara, because he knows everything not only Bukhara but also about the country and culture. We made a lot of questions and he never rushed taking as many time as needed. Thanks for everything Nur!!
