Today we went to Nugay karvansaray I'm Bukhara.

Among a great deal of sights, which decorate beautiful Bukhara, it is necessary to mention Nugay caravanserai in particular. This unique construction was founded in XVI century, when Muhammed Rakhimbiy Khan ruled here.


Nugay, which is currently one of the most famous historical places in Bukhara, is located in the very heart of the old town. It stands near to the trade dome of Toki-Sarrafon and the House of Bukhara merchant.


At those times building of caravanserais was an ordinary thing, and their meaning for single travelers and the whole caravans was really considerable. Under the canopy of trees, growing here, tired travelers satisfied hunger and thirst, and numerous rooms of the caravanserais were giving shelter and helpful rest. In caravanserais - ancient prototype of modern hotels - sometimes there was no tableware or bedding. Travelers had to bring meals for themselves and the animals also with them. Usually caravanserais could offer only shelter, and sometimes water. However, Nugay provided its guests with all the necessary conveniences.
