Bukhara/Uzbekistan:
Buhara (Bukhara,Boxoro) which is situated on the Silk Route, is more than 2,000 years old. It is the most complete example of a medieval city in Central Asia, with an urban fabric that has remained largely intact. Monuments of particular interest include the famous tomb of Ismail Samani, a masterpiece of 10th-century Muslim architecture, and a large number of 17th-century madrasas.
Bukhara, which is situated on the Silk Route, is some 25 centuries old. It is the most complete example of a medieval city in Central Asia, with an urban fabric that has remained largely intact. Monuments of particular interest include the famous tomb of Ismail Samani, a masterpiece of 10th-century Muslim architecture, and a large number of 17th-century madrasas. The historic part of the city, which is in effect an open-air museum, combines the city's long history in a single ensemble.
Archaeological excavations have revealed that the settlement on the site of latter-day Bukhara became part of the Kushan state as early as the 2nd millennium BC. In the 4th century it was incorporated into the Ephtalite state. Before the Arab conquest Bukhara was one of the largest cities of central Asia, owing its prosperity to its site on a rich oasis and at the crossroads of ancient trade routes. It became a major cultural centre of the Caliphate of Baghdad in 709, and in 892 the capital of the independent Samanid Kingdom. A time of great economic growth came to an end with the sack of the city in 1220 by the Mongol horde of Genghis Khan. It slowly recovered, to become part of the Timurid Empire. The internal strife of the late 15th century led to the occupation of Bukhara by nomadic Uzbek tribesmen led by Khan Sheibani, becoming the capital of the Bukhara Khanate. A long period of unrest and short-lived dynasties ended in 1920, when it was absorbed into the Soviet Union; nevertheless, this period saw Bukhara consolidating its role as a major commercial and cultural centre.
The townscape of latter-day Bukhara represents every stage of the city's history. The earliest monuments include the 10th century Ismail Samani Tomb, the decorated brick minaret of Poi-Kalyan from the 11th century, along with the Magoki Mosque and the Chasma Ayub Shrine. The Timurid period is represented only by the Ulugbek Medresseh. The most celebrated buildings date from the Shebibanid period - the Poi-Kalyan group, the Lyabi-Khauz ensemble, the Kosh Medresseh, and the Gaukushon Medresseh. A little later came the medressehs at important crossroads, such as Taki Sarafon (Dome of the Moneyshangers, Taki-Tilpak-Furushan (Dome of the Headguard Sellers), Tim-Bazzazan, and Tim-Abdullah-Khan. Among the fine buildings erected in the anarchic early 17th century must be included the great new mosque Magoki Kurns (1637) and the imposing Abdullah-Khan Medresseh. It should be stressed, however, that the real importance of Bukhara lies not in its individual buildings but rather in its overall level of urban planning and architecture, which began with the Sheibanid dynasty.
Historical Description
Archaeological excavations have revealed that the settlement on the site of latter-day Bukhara became part of the Kushan state as early as the 2nd millennium BC. In the 4th century BC it was incorporated into the Ephtalite state. Before the Arab conquest, Bukhara was one of the largest cities of central Asia, owing its prosperity to its site on a rich oasis and at the crossroads of ancient trade-routes. The ancient Persian city covered an area of nearly 40 hectares, with the ark (citadel), the residence of its rulers, in the north-west quarter (where it survives as a huge rectangular earthen mound).
It became a major cultural centre of the Caliphate of Baghdad in 709. In 892 Emir Ismail ibn Amad (892-907) created an independent state and chose Bukhara as the capital of the powerful Sarnanid kingdom. There followed a period of great economic and cultural growth, when the city grew enormously in size, especially under the rule of the Karakhanids from the 11th century onwards. In 1220 the city was sacked by the Mongol horde of Chinghiz Khan (1220) and was not to recover until the second half of the 13th century. In 1370 it became part of the great Timurid Empire, whose capital was at Samarkand. Bukhara was still the second city of Maverannahr, and building was renewed.

Zijderoute:
Oezbekistan heeft zijn uitzonderlijk rijk verleden te danken aan zijn ligging in Centraal-Azië.
Het is eeuwenlang het kloppend hart van Azië geweest.
Door zijn unieke ligging was het een internationale draaischijf van de handel langsheen de karavaanroutes tussen China en Europa.
Deze zijderoute verbond het verre China met Europa en was van uitzonderlijk belang, niet alleen op handelsvlak, maar ook op het gebied van cultuur en wetenschap.
De Gouden Route ligt voornamelijk in het huidige Oezbekistan, een onafhankelijke staat in Centraal-Azië.
De Sjah Rah of Koninklijke Weg verbond Samarkand met Boechara en was de drukste karavaanroute in de geschiedenis. Karavanen bestaande uit meer dan 3.000 kamelen waren geen uitzondering en legden de afstand van 250 km tussen beide steden af in een week tijd.
Tot voor kort was dit gebied met zijn uitzonderlijke geschiedenis van Scythen, Parthen, Samaniden en Timoeriden moeilijk toegankelijk.
In 1995 besliste de Unesco bijzondere aandacht aan de ontwikkeling van de legendarische Zijderoute te schenken vanwege het groot cultuur-historisch belang van dit gebied.

#Ouzbékistan Vidéo des monuments de la ville de #Boukhara
( Merci de noter cette vidéo ) ABONNEZ-VOUS pour suivre l'évolution de mes vidéos sur YouTube,cordialement Claude Aven
Le Centre historique de Boukhara, situé sur la Route de la soie, remonte à plus de deux mille ans. C'est un des meilleurs exemples de cités islamiques bien préservées d'Asie centrale du Xe au XVIIe siècle, avec un tissu urbain qui est resté largement intact.
Boukhara a longtemps été un centre économique et culturel important de l'Asie centrale. L'ancienne cité #perse a servi de centre majeur de la culture islamique durant de nombreux siècles et est devenue un centre culturel majeur du #Califat au VIIIe siècle.
À l'exception de quelques vestiges importants datant de la période antérieure aux invasions mongoles de Gengis Khan en 1220 et de Timour en 1370, la vieille ville est un témoin de l'urbanisme et de l'architecture de la période chaybanide des rois ouzbeks, à partir du début du XVIe siècle. La citadelle, reconstruite au XVIe siècle, marque le centre civique de la ville depuis ses origines.
Les monuments importants encore debout depuis ces temps anciens comprennent la célèbre tombe d'Ismail Samanai, impressionnante dans sa sobre élégance et plus bel exemple restant de l'architecture du Xe siècle dans tout le monde musulman. De la période karakhanide du XIe siècle date le remarquable minaret de Poi-Kalyan, chef-d'œuvre de la décoration en briques, de même que la plus grande partie de la #mosquée Magoki Attori et du #mausolée Chashma Ayub. La madrasa Ulugbek est un héritage survivant des Timourides. Aux Chaybanides sont dus certains des plus célèbres monuments de Boukhara : l'ensemble de Poi-Kalyan, l'ensemble de Lyabi-Khauz, la #madrasa Kosh et la madrasa Gaukushon dans l'ensemble de Hodja-Kalon. Les édifices ultérieurs de cette période de l'histoire de Boukhara comprennent des madrasas monumentales aux carrefours importants : Taki Sarafon (Coupole des changeurs), Taki-Tilpak-Furushan (Coupole des chapeliers), Tim-Bazzazan et Tiro-Abdullah-Khan. Au début du XVIIe siècle, de belles constructions sont venues s'y ajouter, dont une nouvelle grande mosquée, Magoki Kurns (1637) et l'imposante madrasa Abdulazziz-Khan (1652).

Khiva-Uzbekistan
Though Khiva is about 2500 years old, it acquired its present appearance in the 18th – early 20th centuries. Khiva consists of two urban parts: the inner town Ichan-Kala and the outer town Dishan-Kala. From the very beginning the core of the city –Ichan-Kala, rectangular in plan, was enclosed in fortification walls.
For centuries these walls served ideally the purpose of the town’s defense. But in 1220 they were destroyed by Mongol invaders and in later period gentle slopes of the collapsed walls were used for burying the dead. In 1790 the wall was rebuilt by order of Khiva’s khan Muhammad-Amin-Inak. It was 1200 meters long, 7-8 meters high and about 6 meters thick at the base. Since Khiva stood at an important intersection of the Great Silk Road, there were built four monumental gates directing north, south, east and west. Ark-Darvoza gate located next to Kunya-Ark Citadel let in the caravans from the west. Kosh-Darvoza (‘Double Gate’) with two entrance arches faced south. Tash-Darvoza (‘Stone Gate) was built in the northern part of the city.
The most remarkable is the eastern gate Palvan-Darvoza (‘Hero Warrior’s Gate’), through which ran the road to the Amu Darya River and to the ancient trade town Khazarasp. The survived marble slab above the arch of the gate shows the date the construction was completed: 1221 anno hegirae (1806). Adjoining the gate is the gallery with six domes – a shopping arcade. Soon after the gate had been built, near it there appeared Allakuli-Khan Madrassah, caravanserai and a tim domed trading center. This was also the place where executions used to be carried out. Next to the gate, behind the Ichan-Kala walls, there was the Asian largest slave market. In 1842 a new fortification wall around larger area was built. Supervised by Mahammad Yakub Mekhtar, the construction was completed within 30 days. The wall was 6 kilometers long; it had 10 gates and a lot of turrets. Three out-of-town gardens – Rafanik, Nurullabay and Nurullabek – became part of the town. The larger ring of the town was then called Dishan-Kala (‘Outer Fortress’). Today only separate parts of this unique fortification structure remain. Yet these strong pahsa adobe walls narrowing to the top, are rather impressive. Every 30-50 meters along the length of the wall there are semicircular watching turrets; they seem to support the wall with their abutments. Looking at Khiva’s walls it is hard to believe that outside this well-preserved medieval town is the 21st century.
Bukhara
Bukhara
Bukhara bevindt zich in het zuid-westelijke deel van Oezbekistan, ongeveer 200 km van Samarkand. Bukhara - een van de oudste steden van Centraal-Azië, Ster van de islamitische wereld en de heilige stad van Centraal-Azië, Bukhara kreeg zijn titels niet voor niets . In de Middeleeuwen waren er 360 moskeeën en 80 madrassahs. Een oude legende vertelt dat het licht van de genade uit de hemel neerdaalt op alle islamitische steden en het alleen boven Bukhara stijgt. Het is 2500 jaar geleden opgericht door een Perzische prins Siyavush als een koningscitadel, de stad begon snel te groeien vanwege de strategische ligging op het kruispunt van handelswegen, dat leidt tot Merv, Urgench, Kabul en Samarkand. De stad kreeg zijn moderne uiterlijk tijdens de dynastieën van de Sheibanids en de Ashtarkhanids (XVI-XVII eeuw). Het was in de tijd dat de meest verbazingwekkende moskeeën en madrassahs, karavanserais en baden, stadsmuren en poorten, maar ook grote architectonische ensembles en graven werden gebouwd. Deze geweldige stad bouwde tot het fort, gebouwd in de zestiende eeuw en bouwde daarna een groot aantal religieuze gebouwen en bazaars, waar men alles kon kopen . Wandelend rond Oud Bukhara, opgericht in de eerste eeuw voor Christus., zie je monumenten van oude beschavingen. De muren van de oude citadel, met meer dan 140 architecturale monumenten van de islamitische tijdperk, zijn tot op heden in tact gebleven.
De Parel van de stad is een klein mausoleum van de Samanids, het vierde onlangs zijn millennium (Bukhara was de hoofdstad van deze dynastie). Op een afstand ziet dit immens goed gebouwde graf eruit als een gebeeldhouwd gouden kistje, bekroond met een lage koepel. Van dichtbij zullen vele toeristen van verbazing grote ogen opzetten. Het hele mausoleum is gebouwd van gewone bakstenen, maar de vaardigheid waarmee het metselwerk en fantasievolle houtsnijwerk is gedaan (steen voor steen!) is bewonderenswaardig. Het creëert een spel van licht en schaduw,zodat het gehele oppervlak van het Mausoleum is gevuld met licht en volmaakte genade. In een dergelijke techniek wordt een ander architectonisch symbool van Bukhara - architectonisch complex Poi Kalyan (pijler van grootheid) uitgevoerd. Het bestaat uit de Grote Minaret Kalyan (1127, wordt beschouwd als een van de hoogste in Azië), Kalyan moskee en twee madrassahs - Miri-Arab (1536) en Emir Alimhan (XX eeuw). Het spectaculaire panorama van het oude Bukhara loopt van de cirkelvormige galerij in de buurt tot de lantaarn van de minaret.
Werelberoemde architectonische monumenten zijn onder meer het mausoleum van Chashma-Agrob (Chashma-Ayub, 1380), Buyan-Kuli-Khan (1358) mausoleum met een prachtige terracotta muren, mausoleum van Sayfiddin Bokharzi (Sayf al-Din, XIII- XIV eeuw), de zomerresidentie van Bukhara emirs -.. de stedelijke citadel Arc (XV-XIX cc), het religieuze ensemble Gaukushon in de moskee Khoja Kalyan, de minaret en madrassah van Khodja-Gaukushon (1570), en de arcades Tak - en-Telpak Furushon (XVI eeuw), een unieke moskee Magoki-Attori (1546-1547), het paleis moskee Jami (XIX eeuw), de moskeeën Balyand (XIV eeuw), en Khodja-Zainuddin (1555), de moskee en de madrassah Bola-Khauz (XVIII eeuw) de madrassah van Ulugbek (XI-XVI eeuw - het enige gebouw uit de periode van zijn bewind), Abdulaziz-Khan madrassah (1652) bevindt zich tegenover de madrassah van Ulugbek, de madrassah Modari-Khan ( 1566-1567) en Abdullah-Khan (1558-1590, samen vormen het zogenaamde Kosh-Madrassah - de dubbele madrassah), de madrassah Chor-Minor (1807) en het land paleis van de laatste emir van het land - Mokhi-Khossa (XIX-XX eeuw, 4 km. ten noorden van Bukhara).
Lyabi-Hauz - het centrum van een ander prachtig monument van Bukhara. Khauz - is een vijver, die een rol speelde in het leven van deze stad, gelegen aan de rand . Lyabi-Khauz - het rechthoekige zwembad omlijst met drie monumentale madrassahs van de XVI-XVII eeuw, was ooit een centrum van het sociale leven in de stad. Madrassah Kukeldash (1568-1569) en khanaka Nadir Divanbegi (Nodir Devon-Begi, 1622) zijn een
Jedwabny Szlak w HD cz. 3 - Buchara 1
Miasto założone około I wieku. W VIII-IX wieku był to duży arabski ośrodek handlu na Jedwabnym Szlaku. Od końca IX wieku stolica Samanidów. W 999 zdobyta przez Turków. Zniszczona w 1220 przez Dżyngis-chana, a w 1370 zdobyta przez Timura. Od połowy XVI wieku stolica mongolskiego chanatu bucharskiego, następnie emiratu pozostającego pod protektoratem rosyjskim. Buchara była miastem świętym -- Buchoro-ij-szarif, do którego, tak jak do Mekki, wstęp dla niewiernych był zabroniony i karany śmiercią. Na początku film pokazuje letni pałac ostatniego emira Buchary - Sitori-Makhi-Khosa, kompleks Kosh Madrasah i Memoriał poległych w czasie II wojny. Kolejnym pokazanym obiektem jest mauzoleum Samonids (Ismail Samoni) z X w. Jest to unikat w skali całej Centralnej Azji - Dżyngis-chan nie zburzył tej budowli bo jej nie odkrył. Dalej pokazano Chashma -Ayub z 1379 r. - jedyny obiekt z okresu Timura. Na końcu pokazano meczet Bolohauz (Bolo-Xauz) w pobliżu cytadeli (Arku), której mury kilka dni temu częściowo się zawaliły co pokazuje cz. 4 filmu.Tam też przedstawiono monumentalne budowle zabytkowego centrum Buchary, które od 1993 roku znajduje się na Liście UNESCO.

The survived marble slab above the arch of the gate shows the date the construction was completed: 1221 anno hegirae (1806). Adjoining the gate is the gallery with six domes – a shopping arcade. Soon after the gate had been built, near it there appeared Allakuli-Khan Madrassah, caravanserai and a tim domed trading center. This was also the place where executions used to be carried out. Next to the gate, behind the Ichan-Kala walls, there was the Asian largest slave market. In 1842 a new fortification wall around larger area was built. Supervised by Mahammad Yakub Mekhtar, the construction was completed within 30 days. The wall was 6 kilometers long; it had 10 gates and a lot of turrets. Three out-of-town gardens – Rafanik, Nurullabay and Nurullabek – became part of the town. The larger ring of the town was then called Dishan-Kala (‘Outer Fortress’). Today only separate parts of this unique fortification structure remain. Yet these strong pahsa adobe walls narrowing to the top, are rather impressive. Every 30-50 meters along the length of the wall there are semicircular watching turrets; they seem to support the wall with their abutments. Looking at Khiva’s walls it is hard to believe that outside this well-preserved medieval town is the 21st century.

Bukhara, which is situated on the Silk Route, is more than 2,500 years old. It is the most complete example of a medieval city in Central Asia, with an urban fabric that has remained largely intact. Monuments of particular interest include the famous tomb of Ismail Samani, a masterpiece of 10th-century Muslim architecture, and a large number of 17th-century madrasas.
The Historic Centre of Bukhara, situated on the Silk Roads, is more than two thousand years old. It is one of the best examples of well preserved Islamic cities of Central Asia of the 10th to 17th centuries, with an urban fabric that has remained largely intact.
Bukhara was long an important economic and cultural center in Central Asia. The ancient Persian city served as a major center of Islamic culture for many centuries and became a major cultural center of the Caliphate in the 8th century.
With the exception of a few important vestiges from before the Mongol invasions of Genghis Khan in 1220 and Temur in 1370, the old town bears witness to the urbanism and architecture of the Sheibani period of Uzbek rule, from the early 16th century onwards. The citadel, rebuilt in the 16th century, has marked the civic center of the town since its earliest days to the present,
Important monuments that survive from early times include the famous Ismail Samanai tomb, impressive in its sober elegance and the best surviving example of 10th century architecture in the whole Muslim world. From the 11th century Karakhanid period comes the outstanding Poi-Kalyan minaret, a masterpiece of decoration in brick, along with most of the Magoki Attori mosque and the Chashma Ayub shrine. The Ulugbek medresseh is a surviving contribution from Temurid. With the advent of the Sheibanids came some of the most celebrated buildings of Bukhara: the Poi-Kalyan group, the Lyabi-Khauz ensemble, the Kosh Medresseh and the Gaukushon medresseh in the Hodja-Kalon ensemble. Later buildings from this phase of Bukhara´s history include monumental medressehs at important crossroads: Taki Sarafon (Dome of the Moneychangers), Taki-Tilpak-Furushan (Dome of the Headguard Sellers), Tim-Bazzazan, and Tiro-Abdullah-Khan. In the early 17th century fine buildings were added, including a new great mosque, Magoki Kurns (1637), and the imposing Abdullaziz-Khan medresseh (1652).
