What To Expect

Lyab-i-Hauz

Lyabi-Hauz is one of the most popular spots in Bukhara, featuring a pond ("hauz" in Uzbek translates to "artificial water pond"). Since the 16th century, Lyabi-Hauz has attracted numerous residents, as watermen once collected water from it for drinking and street watering purposes. Trade shops and teahouses were also situated near the pond. Today, as it has been for centuries, Lyabi-Hauz remains a central location in Bukhara. A monument dedicated to the renowned folklore character Hoja Nasreddin can be found nearby.
