 We went to Gavkushon all of the group information 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-Govkushan architectural ensemble was built in 1562-1565 during Shaybani ruler Abdulla Khan II in the historical center of Bukhara (Uzbekistan) at the expense of Khoja Sa'd, 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, the second Juma Mosque of Bukhara, known as the "Khoja Mosque", was built around it, imitating the Minarai Kalon, with a pool and a low minaret. Later, caravanserais were built nearby.

Due to the uneven shape of the construction site, the monument has an asymmetrical shape, and the structure is also different from traditional madrasahs. The side wings of the two-story main look differ in size and shape.

To the right is a rectangular hall that was 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.

A small tower (19.5 m) is located on the left side of the building. On the opposite side of the main building is a beautiful porch. It was renovated several times during the Soviet era[1]. The monument is under state protection.

The layout of the madrasa is traditional, it consists of classrooms and halls with a mosque, and a courtyard with one-story rooms.

It was included in the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites in 1993 as part of the "Historical Center of Bukhara"[2]. In 1997, on the occasion of the 2500th anniversary of the city of Bukhara, the Govkushon madrasa was renovated among all the monuments in Bukhara. It is also a tourist service and exhibition facility with workshops.
