Hi everyone✋

Today our group went to Ismail Somoniy Masouleum. 

The Ismail Somoni mausoleum was built in the advanced period of the Middle Ages (9th-10th centuries), between 864-868, in the old city of Bukhara.

Since the building served as a tomb, its interior was a one-room square shape with three steps (quadruple - four walls, octave - transition from wall to roof and dome - roof).

Brick, stone and wood were used in its construction. As for the mausoleum's design, the muted brick decoration is reminiscent of a spiky fence or a reed, mat texture. The thickness of the wall is 1.8 m, the size is 10.80×10.70 m outside, 7.20×7.20 m inside. It is covered with a dome. Its four corners are made in the form of a column, and 4 domes are placed around the dome. At the top of the wall is a yellow window (40). Every window is framed. The brickwork above the porch is bordered by a garland of coins. On both sides, small brick amulets are made. The interior of the building is integrally connected with the exterior and is identical in style. The inner wall rested on columns under the dome. The arches form the base of the 8-sided dome. Columns supporting the dome are made in the corners of the edges. During the archeological excavation (1927) it was found that there were 2 wooden sagans in the room. The mausoleum of Ismail Somoni is a grand architectural work in which the traditions of ancient Sughd architecture have been preserved.


As for the attention given to the mausoleum by the government of Uzbekistan, in 1997, in connection with the 2500th anniversary of the city of Bukhara, among all the monuments in Bukhara, the Ismail Somoni mausoleum was renovated. It was included in the list of UNESCO World Monuments. In 1993, the historical center of the city of Bukhara (Session 1, Colombia) was included in the "List of World Cultural Heritage".

On August 30, 2000, the law "On the protection and use of cultural heritage objects" was adopted. These laws adopted by our state are a legal guarantee of protection of architectural structures.

Thanks
