【Uzbekistan】Top 2 Tourist Attractions in Bukhara

Located almost in the center of Uzbekistan, Bukhara was once a key stop along the Silk Road.

Here are two must-visit tourist spots in Bukhara!

① Ark Fortress
The Ark Fortress served as the residence of the rulers of Bukhara and is one of the oldest structures in the city. Originally spanning an area of 4 hectares, it is said that the fortress was so large that it formed a town within its walls! Even today, its grandeur evokes a sense of historical romance.

② Bolo Haouz Mosque
The Bolo Haouz Mosque, once reserved for the kings of the Bukhara Khanate, is a unique example of Islamic architecture in Uzbekistan. Unlike other mosques in Bukhara, it features a high ceiling supported by wooden columns in the traditional iwan style. 🕌

Bukhara is a small city, so you can explore it thoroughly with just a one-night stay. Be sure to visit and immerse yourself in its historical charm!
