Boboyi Poraduz 23.05.2024

 Today we went to the holy place it is called Boboyi Poraduz. It was my first visit there so I really like the entrance to the tomb complex it is through an impressive brick archway with star shaped designs on the underside. Continue walking along the path which is covered in grape vines and the tomb will come into view. It is a simple portal design with persian styled archway. The familiar use of tiles with blue shades is seen above the entrance. 


Boba Poraduz was a famous shoemaker and prophet, who lived in the 13th - 14th centuries. His shoes were of such high quality, that they are said to be worn by the faithful on the hajj to Mecca and still appear brand new on arrival. He was famous in Bukhara and his tomb is still a site of pilgrimage today. We visited this site by taking a bus to the Ipoteka Bank stop on Mukhammad Iqbol Street, and walking north on the narrow dirt road which runs to the right of the Jewish cemetery. Other nearby attractions include central park, a short walk north and to the west of the park are the famous Sheikh-Jalal gates.
