Immerse yourself in Bukhara’s history at the Mir-i-Arab Madrasa
Full description
Begin your pilgrimage tour (Ziyarat) in Tashkent, where you will see the original copy of the Sacred Quran of Caliph Uthman at the Tashkent Islamic Religious Centre. Learn the story of Hazrati Imam (Abu Bakr), a key figure in spreading Islam across Central Asia.
Hear the echoes of Silk Road caravan footsteps at Chorsu Bazaar and taste plov cooked in Asia’s largest cauldron.
From Tashkent, take a high-speed train to Samarkand, where you will marvel at the stunning beauty of Registan Square. Visit the gold-covered mausoleum of Amir Timur, as well as the Shah-i-Zinda and Hazrat Daniyar (Saint Daniel) complexes as part of your Ziyarat.
The next day, visit the Al-Bukhari complex, where, over 16 years of his life, Imam Al-Bukhari gathered from 600,000 hadiths the ones that form his authentic collection – Al-Jami’ al-Sahih.
Bukhara is famous for the Mir-i-Arab Madrasa, where prominent scholars and followers of the Naqshbandi Sufi order once studied. Bukhara is a place where time stands still – you will feel as if you have stepped into an ancient tale, surrounded by its original minarets.
Furthermore, the city’s modern, professionally equipped museums allow you to immerse yourself in history in real time.
