Description

Ark of Bukhara is a monumental fortress built on a 16-meter hill, which served as the seat of rulers for over 2,000 years. The current structure dates back to the 16th century and houses the Bukhara History Museum.

Inside, you will discover the Throne Room with a marble throne from 1669, mosques with legends of 40 martyrs, and mysterious corridors with prison cells. The fortress was designed according to the constellation of the Great Bear - seven stone markers were supposed to provide magical protection.
