Historical Bukhara

Let's talk about the glorious history of Bukhara, which we all know. Bukhara has a 2,500-years history, called as "the beauty of God", "the dome of Islam" and "the power of Islam". During the reign of Shaybani Abdullah II, it became the capital. Bukhara remained the capital even during the reign of Ashtarkhani and Mangits. Bukhara was the central enlightenment of Central Asia. Students from Khiva, Kokand, Gissar, Samarkand and Muslim-majority regions of Russia also studied here. Commanders, scientists and fuzalas who shook the world, grew up there. Each emir tried to leave a bright mark on himself. One of such emirs was Ubaydullokhan, representatives of the Ashtarkhanid dynasty, Mangits, Abdullah II and other dynasties.There are many ancient mosques, madrasas and mausoleums of Islamic saints in the territory of Bukhara. From ancient times, people say that if light shines on all Muslim cities, it will rise from the earth to the sky only through Bukhara. Bukhara is also the only state in Central Asia that is almost fully documented by the famous 10th century historian Narshahi. In his works, he says that no other country has as many names as Bukhara.

In China in the 5th century it was called Nyumi, later in the sources of the Tang Empire it was called An, Ansi, Buho and Buhe. But in history it is often called Bukhara. According to etymologists, the name is derived from the Sogdian word "buharak" and translates as "happy place". Now in the territory of Bukhara there are more than 140 monuments belonging to different countries, built more than a century ago, districts and neighborhoods have been preserved
Bukhara is also called the city of poetry and fairy tales, because the whole old city is surrounded by legends and stories. By the way, the historical part of the city was included in the 1993 UNESCO¹ World Heritage List.
Bukhara is one of the best tourist attractions of Uzbekistan. People come from all over the world to see the historical monuments there. In fact, these monuments are easy to see from afar. For example, it was easy to feel the enemy coming to the state, that an attack was being carried out. It was also considered convenient to say the adhan again. It has not lost its significance yet.
