It is a real gem of Tashkent, built in 1532 on the orders of Nauruz Ahmad Khan. The Barak-khan Madrasah is located in the ancient part of the city, it is a must-see attraction that you can visit in less than an hour. In front of the complex, you will find a museum that houses the 353 scrolls of the Koran of Caliph Osman, probably dating back to the seventh century. A very important historical place that we highly recommend you to visit during your time in Tashkent. Just as we were enchanted and photographing the madrasa came the folk group of Uzbekistan to make filming, sensational.

🇮🇹 E' una vera gemma di Tashkent, costruita nel 1532 su ordine di Nauruz Ahmad Khan. La Barak-khan Madrasah è situata nella parte antica della città, è un'attrazione imperdibile che puoi visitare in meno di un'ora. Di fronte al complesso, troverai un museo che custodisce le 353 pergamene del Corano del Califfo Osman, risalenti probabilmente al VII secolo. Un luogo storico di grandissima importanza che ti consigliamo vivamente di visitare durante il tuo tempo a Tashkent. Nel momento in cui eravamo incantati a fotografare la madrasa, è piombato il gruppo folk dell'Uzbekistan a fare delle riprese. Un'emozione sensazionale!
