Initially, a domed mausoleum was constructed over Sheikh Kul’s tomb, utilizing remnants of earlier structures. Visitors can enjoy capturing stunning photos of the massive blue dome over the Friday mosque and the elaborate arches.

One of the primary attractions of visiting Shahrisabz is experiencing the mountain pass and the picturesque countryside of Uzbekistan. The journey begins with views of vineyards, fruit trees, and vegetable fields. Gradually, the landscape transforms as the elevation increases, with fields giving way to hills and eventually to rugged mountains. The “Teshik Tosh,” or “Rock with the Hole,” is the first stop to admire the remarkable natural formations. The iconic film “Apachen,” featuring the renowned Gojko Mitic, was filmed here due to its striking resemblance to the American Southwest prairie.
