| Bukhara is the most complete and unspoiled example of a medieval central Asian town, which urban layout and buildings have had great influence on town planning in Central Asia.
Whole districts with their ancient layouts have been preserved to the present day. The city’s history started in the 4th century BC, growing into one of the largest cities of Central Asia. Most major monuments that have survived are from the 16th century onwards, the Sheibanid period, when economic and cultural development was stimulated. Bukhara was also the largest center for Muslim theology in the Near East. |
