Mir-Sayid Bakhrom Mausoleum

The Mir-Sayid Bakhrom Mausoleum features precise brickwork patterns and Quranic inscriptions in Kufic script across its nearly square structure measuring 4.47 by 4.40 meters.

Discovered in 1942 by archaeologist Antonina Pisarchik, this 10th-11th century mausoleum underwent multiple restorations, including a significant renovation in 1976.

The mausoleum incorporates architectural elements similar to the Samanid Mausoleum in Bukhara, displaying characteristic Islamic design principles of the Samanid period.

The structure remains accessible within a modern setting, surrounded by an amusement park where visitors can examine the decorative stone pillars near the building.

The inner dome rests upon an eight-sided arch supported by five brick columns, creating a distinctive checkerboard pattern on the octagonal pillars.
