Ishrakhtona is an architectural monument-mausoleum built during the reign of Timurid Abu Sayyid (1451-1469). The building was apparently the burial place of representatives of the Timurid dynasty, as several female burials were discovered during excavations in 1940. Currently, the building is in ruins, and the dome and high drum were destroyed relatively recently — during the earthquake of 1903.
It's an interesting place, it smells old.
It was not possible to get inside, although they did not really try)
It's a long walk from the center - it's better to take a taxi.
If you have already visited the main attractions of Samarkand, then it is worth visiting this place.
The place is to touch the history.
It's a pity to see how everything is destroyed. Hopefully, a restoration will be carried out.
Overall, it's quiet, with construction debris all around.
At the restoration stage. There is still an opportunity to touch the antiquity that has not been restored. To see really old walls and some mosaics. A little more, and there will be another new model, having only the contours of the past.
A scientific study of this historical site is necessary, it has been very little studied and according to the results it will be possible to reconstruct it qualitatively!
It is not an interesting tourist place, it is cool that along with Gur Emir and Registan there is a mausoleum in the city that is just as old, but not restored, which smells of antiquity.
A very atmospheric place with an interesting history. The room was closed, but a hospitable local resident turned out to be nearby, who led them inside and even conducted a mini-tour
A fairy tale of the east that fascinates and conveys a certain trend from the depths of history. I recommend visiting all the sights of the city of Samarkand, you will not regret it))
An unpopular landmark worth seeing has not yet been restored.
Pay attention to the traces of chipped frescoes on the outside and faded patterns on the inside.
The doors to the building are closed, but if you ask permission from the construction team, they can let you in to see.
I came here specifically to look at the unrepaired structure. The building is dilapidated (well, personally, I'm not like that), the whole mosaic is knocked off the walls. Unfortunately, I couldn't get inside, well, or I tried to go through the wrong door((
Repairs are underway inside.
We were taken to this place by a taxi driver. All I understood from his incomprehensible speech was the house of fun. And there are women buried in the basement. It's ambiguous, isn't it?
Already at home, I read the history of this mausoleum.
Visit such places with the right guides!
It is not (Ishrathona) the correct name for "Ashrathona", given that the Arabic word "ashrat" translates as "ten", and all together ("Ashrathona") can be translated as "10 rooms".
Restoration work is underway. There used to be a prison room downstairs. There is a legend that there was a tunnel underground from here, through which warriors moved the outer gate of the city with a horse.
