The place is magnificent in itself.
Mountainous area, very beautiful views.
From the interesting:
1. Views from the mountain, you will be at the top, do not walk only along the road, as you climb up, walk around, the views from different parts of the top of the mountain are amazing.
2. The cave itself and its history. Indeed, the words of the guide (a free local guy, sits all day in a cave and tells a story) agree with what you see with your eyes, even though it seems incredible.
3. Let's go up. This is a test of your strength. It is very difficult and difficult. But after passing it, you feel like a winner. It's hard to describe in words... It's like I won a race, and with myself.
Benches are located throughout the entire rise. And it's a lot harder without them. On the rise, you can safely lay from an hour to 3 hours. But it's worth it.
There is an old road that is half collapsed. You can climb it, but it's DANGEROUS! I do not advise even extreme people.
Naturally, they will offer to ride donkeys and horses. But honestly, for 4 hours of going there, I didn't see anyone who would agree.
And yes, horses, donkeys and camels are UNTAMED and WELL-GROOMED. I've been to many countries with my wife. And then there were two that were normal. Usually you look at animals and you want to save them urgently from such drivers, but not here ...
I highly recommend a raincoat on a hike. Otherwise, as usual.
Admission is free, the guide is free in the cave itself.
You can take a taxi to the foot of the mountain and back. It will cost about 150,000soums one way to Samarkand. If you order a Yandex taxi, carefully select and set a ROUTE IN ADVANCE. Otherwise Yandex will lead through the village, along a WHOLE NEW STRAIGHT ROAD!!!! THE DIFFERENCE IS HUGE!!!

A very interesting place for the pilgrimage of the Prophet David, the king of Israel. The story can be read on the Internet. The place is located in the mountains. There are very comfortable and pleasant places for relaxing and cooking in the foothills. You can take a private car to the parking lot. Then you will be taken by taxi to the place. If you stay overnight, you will be offered to drive your car. To visit the cave of the Prophet David, you will have to climb 1265 steps. It's not an easy task. It is also possible to ride a horse or donkey. I recommend visiting this interesting place

Being in Samarkand and not visiting the Hazrati-Daud cave is not permissible, so we naturally went there. Climbing to the Hazrat-Daud cave seems to stretch into infinity, surrounded by magnificent landscapes. The cave is located at an altitude of about 1250 meters, and in order to climb to the cave, you need to pass 1303 steps laid up the slope of the mountain. After visiting a small mosque at the top and praying there, you need to walk along the opposite slope and descend 200 steps down, where the entrance to the cave is located. Elderly and infirm people who cannot climb the mountain on their own, climb on a donkey or a horse, a little expensive of course. Here you can only admire and admire. No other feelings are given.

A well-known place of pilgrimage in Uzbekistan, tourists are rarely found here - only locals, and many elderly people. Although climbing to the top of the mountain (more than 1300 steps) is not so easy to do! Along the way, everyone is joking amiably, and local merchants are cheering you on, there are specially equipped stops with benches. A great opportunity to test your strength and admire the local nature and beautiful views.

The Hazrat-Daoud Cave is a place of pilgrimage 70 km from Samarkand. According to one legend, the Jewish king David (Daud in Arabic) was hiding from enemies here (he pushed aside a rock with his hands and a cave was formed). A cave on the top of the mountain, which is reached by 1303 steps (1250 meters). We went up twice - the first time on foot, went down and ..... The possibilities of a mountain ride on horseback were incredibly attractive.
You can ride a horse for part of the ascent of 80,000 soums, 150,000 fully ascent and descent. The trail for the equestrian route on the other side of the mountain and the views are different from the pedestrian one. I highly recommend watching it too.
There are many shops on the stairs with interesting souvenirs, herbs, mountain mummy, etc.

A very small cave. Compared to the caves of the Caucasus, it's just a nook. When you wait for your turn and get inside, a group Muslim prayer service with the reading of the surah awaits you. In general, the result is questionable compared to the effort.

They take money for everything and not a little
They ask for 10,000 for parking. It is not written anywhere that it costs so much.
They don't give you a receipt. Deceive tourists come up with prices looking at the person
They set up a business on their own in a holy place
