The place is about an hour's drive from the city of Turkestan, the road was made by 60 percent in March 2024. It's a beautiful place, quite crowded. The mausoleum is the historical and cultural heritage of the Republic of Kazakhstan. There is a well next to the mausoleum, believers stock up on water from it, according to beliefs, water helps with various diseases, the water tastes bitterly salty. If you happen to be in Turkestan, it makes sense to visit this holy place.
A great place filled with powerful energy, beautiful, picturesque, and yes, by far the most important thing is energy. We advise everyone to visit, especially Muslims.
It is necessary to raise the service on the Almaty - Turkestan automobile route.
The places of ablution in front of the mausoleum are also very, very bad, there is no clean toilet, no conditions have been created. A very dirty ablution place. How many people want to come and leave donations, send 1% of the same money to create conditions…
An interesting landmark, although a new model, but with deep historical roots. Still, visitors would observe the dress code when visiting a holy place, or at least women would cover their heads, as it should be, regardless of religion.
An interesting historical place, with preserved and restored architecture of former times. On a clear sunny day, it will be hot for you, so stock up on water and a camera!
A fairly large pilgrimage site for Muslims in this region, and maybe even the country. Everything is very beautifully decorated. There are places where you can sit in the shade and think about the mundane. Lawns and paths are illuminated at night, everything is powered by solar panels. There is a shop where you can buy jewelry in the national style, headscarves, since women without a covered head are not allowed into the shrine, and men with short shorts. You can also buy soft drinks here, taste kozhe, koumiss, shubat and kurt of excellent quality.
Friends and guests of the Southern Capital, if you have not visited our historical sites, then I advise you to take a walk. It is very interesting there and you can learn the history of our ancestors. I was there for the first time and I really liked it.
A place of power!!! The local flavor, everything is in the old style, as if you are in another time, another era. An energetically strong place, you can make wishes!
I really love this place. Always so calm and even peaceful!!! There is a spring with salty-bitter healing water. You can go inside the mausoleum and pray quietly.
One of the most powerful shrines. A pilgrimage to Turkestan should begin with it. There it is absolutely necessary to spend the night in houses for pilgrims nearby. This is a place of power. And there's still bitter water to drink
The place is oversaturated with tourists, very noisy, everyone is in a hurry to go somewhere, which is why the feeling of energy is lost.
Next time I'll go there for an overnight stay.
The mausoleum is a valuable landmark of the Turkestan region. In the building you can find various stone and wooden products, clothes and a huge cauldron on which food was cooked. Entrance is paid. The environment is beautiful, the place where you want to take beautiful pictures
Tell those who work there at the mausoleum not to consider themselves the masters of the area!! One worker told me that it was her well! No respect for the saints who have passed away! They walk around in anything, make noise, laugh, gossip, swear, waste water. Where they drink, they wash their hands and face! But you have to pay for everything! The imam generally sits and reads the Koran to those who gave money and their ancestors, and not Arystan baba! Those who know come to dedicate the Koran to him, and not to the ancestors of some strangers! There was a good imam, he was fired, it turns out that this young one is no better! They let anyone in, just to make money! It gets worse every year! People forget that they came to the "dead" in the grave, and not to visit relatives and to the club! They do not let you into the hotel, they ask if you will make donations, if not, they say there are no places, although there are. Just for the money again? Instead of checking the ticket, it would be better to check if the clothes match!

I was told to go to the place where our great - grandfather Arystan Bab was buried. Since 2005, I have dreamed of visiting this sacred place, God bless our cemetery🙏
The impressions are very pleasant. We were in a hurry so we couldn't listen to the guide. Do not forget to take a container with you to take the water with you. There is a well there and you can get water. The leader is salty.
An uncontested landmark of the SOUTH OF KAZAKHSTAN
+ historical value (kapets when it was built and still stands)
+ religious value (probably Europeans will not understand)
+ well-groomed territories
+ road quality
- stupid prohibitions on clothes
- lack of gazebos with protection from the sun (especially on late spring and summer days)
- lawn irrigation system (not the lawn is watered, the sidewalk is watered) apparently a relative of akma did
