Top attractions and landmarks in Bukhara, Uzbekistan

Among the many attractions in this city, the following should top your list: 

  • Kalyan Minaret - Dubbed as the “Tower of Death”, this minaret served as an observatory, religious hub, and an executioner's lair. During times of war, it served as a lookout to look out for invading armies. However, its most famous use was for public execution, where people were thrown from the rotunda at its top to its stone courtyard below.
  • Khoja-Gaukushon - This is one of the city’s largest ensembles, where you can find a mosque, minaret, and madrasah. Its name, which means “killing of bulls”, was taken from the slaughter-house that once existed on its site.
