House of Emir of Bukhara, Neoclassical residence on Kamennoostrovsky Prospekt, Saint Petersburg, Russia.

The House of Emir of Bukhara features Italian Renaissance architectural elements, marble facades, and two courtyards connected by five wings.

Built between 1913 and 1914 for Emir Seid Abdulahad-khan's son, the residence was designed by architect Stepan Krichinsky who received the Order of Noble Bukhara.

The building represents the connection between Russian and Central Asian cultures, incorporating Florentine palazzo design elements in its Saint Petersburg setting.

The right section of the building contains private apartments, while the left entrance leads to communal housing arrangements maintained since the 1920s.

The exterior walls are covered with dolomite marble sourced from the Shishim deposit in the Middle Urals, making it a distinct architectural example.
