Karakhan-Baba Mausoleum — Witness of History in the Heart of Taraz

This mausoleum, erected during the golden age of the Great Silk Road, is a unique example of 11th-century architectural art. Belonging to the dynasty that founded the Karakhanid state, this monument has served as a spiritual pillar for the people throughout the centuries.
The ornaments on the bricks and the masonry style of the mausoleum testify to the outstanding craftsmanship of the architects of that era. Today, the Karakhan Baba mausoleum is one of the main historical and cultural centres of the Zhambyl region and a sacred site for visitors.
