Raiymbek Batyr Mausoleum, Granite mausoleum in Almaty, Kazakhstan.

The Raiymbek Batyr Mausoleum displays a pointed tent design with a crescent crown and contains a sarcophagus with the remains of the warrior.

The original tomb was destroyed during the Russian Civil War between 1918-1922, leading to the installation of a granite stela in 1981.

Local residents consider Raiymbek Batyr a saint due to his leadership role in uniting Kazakh tribes against Dzungar invaders in the 18th century.

The mausoleum, located on Raiymbek Prospect, includes a spring and prayer room for visitors seeking moments of reflection and contemplation.

A black marble Koran, created for the 300th anniversary of Raiymbek's birth in 2005, stands near the mausoleum as a focal point for prayers.
