What To Expect
Shah-i-Zinda
Shakhi-Zinda Ensemble – (IX) situated on southeastern mound of Afrosiab. This architectural complex consists of 44 tombs in more than 20 mausoleums. The greatest significance of Shah E Zinda is that he was the First cousin of the Prophet Muhammad and resembles the Prophet the most.

Hazrat Khizr Mosque
Historical monument (mid-19th century); associated with the name of the legendary Islamic prophet Khizr. The building was erected on the site of an ancient mosque (according to the inscription on the mihrab, in 1855). The monument is located opposite the Shah-i-Zinda complex on a hill.

Siab Bazaar
A visit to any city would not be complete without a visit to the market or bazaar. It is here you get a glimpse into the everyday life of the locals as they buy their goods. Lots to choose from so I am guessing everyone can find something to buy!
