One Thousand and One Nights - The hometown of Afanti

Bukhara·Bukhara District Bukhara is the birthplace of the legendary One Thousand and One Nights, the hometown of Afanti, and the Bukhara Khanate in ancient Chinese books..... It is said that two-thirds of the stories in the more than 400-year history of the Bukhara Khanate took place in Bukhara. Here are distributed nearly 170 various styles of Islamic buildings since the Middle Ages, known as the 'living fossil of the Silk Road'. The entire ancient city of Bukhara is not very large, and it can basically be visited in one day. The exteriors of these Islamic buildings are very gorgeous. But without exception, the interiors of these buildings are basically shops selling small commodities, and the small commodities are very similar, and it will be a bit boring after a long time. There are various different Islamic buildings in the ancient city, among which the most famous are the Kalon Mosque and the Mir-i-Arab Seminary, and the three-piece set composed of the Kalon Minaret, which is basically the iconic building of Bukhara. In addition, there are more than a hundred large and small mosques in the ancient city, which can also be very stunning when photographed. Here I share with you other buildings in the ancient city of Bukhara.
