Chor Bakr

 Hello everybody🌷

Today our first practice day in Chorbakr Memorial Complex. Chorbakr is a memorial complex in the village of Sumitan at 5 km of Bukhara in Uzbekistan. The Chor Bakr Memorial Complex, also known as Sumitan's cemetery, was established by Shaybanid ruler Abdullaxon II in 1559, and it includes a mausoleum, a mosque, a madrasa, and a large courtyard surrounded by high walls.​ In the following centuries, additional buildings were constructed, and the complex was expanded to include adjacent areas. Abdullaxon II allocated 70,000 gold coins for the construction of this memorial complex. The central building of the complex is the mausoleum, which has doors on all four sides. The mausoleum has a two-story structure with two rooms and a domed chamber on top.​The mihrab (prayer niche) is located on the qibla side of the mausoleum. The dome of the mausoleum is built in the Arki duzi style. The verses 61 and 62 of Surah Al-Baqara are inscribed on the front facade of the mausoleum.​The courtyard measures 20 meters in length, while the front entrance is 12 meters wide.​



Our teacher and my classmates gave information to as about Chorbakr and we listened them. But we couldn’t enter the complex. Because this complex was been fixed now. And we were very happy and collected a lot of information this mosque. Thank you for your attention🌷🥰
