Saifiddin Caravanseroi

 Today our group visited the Saifiddin Caravanseroi located in the old city.The students gave information about this place.


One of such specialized places was Sayfiddin’s Caravanserai in Bukhara, built in the XIX century. Caravanserais served as a kind of parking and a shelter for wandering merchants, a place for rest and lodging, the likeness of a modern hotel or motel. Inside, travelers could store their goods in special storage rooms, feed animals in designated pens, have a snack in a teahouse or take a bath. Another special place in a caravanserai was the exchange money point.


Sayfiddin’s Caravanserai was considered a state-run and was a place of shelter mainly of rich merchants (bais) engaged in trade in gold, pearls, diamonds and other precious metals. According to that, we can say that in this caravanserai there was a good turnover, which reached about 5,000 rubles a day.



Currently, at the entrance to the ancient caravanserai, there are small shops with national souvenirs and handicrafts as a reminder of a once-lively trading place where hundreds of merchants from all over the Great Silk Road used to stop.




So, our journeys in the Saifiddin Caravanseroi are over, keep following me and I will share my interesting impressions with you again 🥰😊❤️

Sayyid Amir Kulol

 Today , I and man coursmates visited in the shrine of Sayyid Amir Kulol, the sixth of the seven pirs in Bukhara.This place is very peaceful and all the students enjoyed it. Sayid Amir Kulal was born in 1281 in the village of Sukhor (now the village of Yangikhet) in the Kagan region, in the village of hereditary potters. According to legend, he was tall and broad in shoulders. Penetrating eyes peered out from under furrowed brows. His skin was tan. His face was framed by a gray beard. He was very humble and gentle in manner. He was far from objection and stubbornness. Thanks to wrestling in his youth, he had a large physique, and was physically developed. As for spirituality, there was no person who would doubt his righteousness, because he behaved like an enlightened one who absorbed all the best that Sharia, Tariqa and Marifat contain. Sayyid Amir Kulal had a huge number of followers, including four of his sons, who later became noble Sufis and continued the teachings of their father
