Toki Zargaron

 Hello everybody!

How are you???

I am again with you😎✌️

Today our trip was in Toki Zargaron


Let's talk about it!

In 1569-70 the largest of the surviving shopping arcades of Bukhara - Toki Zargaron ("the dome of jewelers") was built. This is an excellent building. This is the dome passage that is a vault above the roadway in conjunction with a gallery for shops and repair shops. Toki Zargaron dome accommodated 36 workshops and jewelers' shops. The dome covers of Toki Zargaron are strict and precise. They are not decorated; everything is subordinated to the building logic. This trading dome of Bukhara is rightfully considered the largest indoor bazaar in the city. Another feature of Toki Zargaron is the shape of the dome - it is extended upwards, and has vertical bulging ribs.

The Toki Zargaron is located on the well-known shopping area of Bukhara, it is a huge covered building with jewelry sold in the 16th century. "Toki Zargaron" literally means "dome of jewelers", that is part of the bazaar, which was dedicated to the manufacture and sale of various jewelries of gold and silver.


The jewelry market was famous for its wide choice of precious products, where you could find earrings, bracelets and necklaces, even for the most sophisticated tastes. Once in a huge room there were 36 jewelry stores, and Zargaron, the trading dome, stood among the first trading floors built in ancient Bukhara. Today, as the market is operational, the trade is going on under the famous dome, many visitors come here to purchase something beautiful from a wide range of goods: from national scarves to the home’s interior decorations.


See you soon! Bye.
