Day 4 Govkushon madrasah

 Hi everyone. Our today's destination is Govkushon madrasah. 



Govkushon madrasah is an architectural monument in Bukhara (XVI century). Madrasa built by Khojabor Khojas. It is part of Govkushon complex. It is an object of cultural heritage of Uzbekistan. The madrasa building of Khoja-Govkushon architectural ensemble was built in the historical center of Bukhara (Uzbekistan) in 1562-1565 during Shaybani ruler Abdulla Khan II at the expense of Khoja Saad, the sheikh of Dzhoybor. Khoja Sa'd is known by the nickname "Khoja Kalon", which is reflected in this name complex.



The name Govkushan ("killing bulls") is related to the fact that there was a slaughterhouse (poultry) here until the 16th century. A little later, after the construction of the madrasa, Bukhara's second Juma Mosque, known as the Khoja Mosque, was built around it, with a pool and a low minaret, imitating the Minaret Kalon. Later, caravanserais were built nearby.Due to the uneven shape of the construction site, the monument has an asymmetrical shape, and its structure is different from traditional madrasas . The side wings of the two-story main look differ in size and shape.


On the right side is a rectangular hall used as a mosque and a classroom. The left wing of the building consists of multi-domed roofs and closed houses. The courtyard is surrounded by one-story rooms.

During the reign of the Uzbek ruler Abdulaziz Khan (1645-1681), it was built in Havzi nav guzar of Joybor district in the capital of the Khanate under the donation of his mother Podshah. It was one of the most prestigious and prestigious madrasahs in Bukhara. Some researchers unjustifiably doubted that this madrasa was built by Potshah Ayim [1] . For example, according to L. Asrorova, the Joybori Kalon madrasa was built by the decree of the governor of Bukhara Abdulaziz Khan during the time of the Uzbek ruler Subhonkulikhon (1680-1702), and it is said that Abdulaziz Khan's mother Oyposhsha Bibi was involved in the construction of the madrasa [10] . Even on the official site of the Joybori Kalon madrasa, it is written that the educational institution was built during the reign of Subhonkulikhon [2] . However, in 1670-1671, when the madrasa was built, Subhonquli Khan was not yet the ruler.
