Zindon of emir



 The most mysterious monument of Bukhara 


One of the most important monuments of Bukhara is Zindan of Emir that attracts people with its mystery. This one of the enigmatic monuments of Bukhara was built in the 18th century.

Zindan in Persian means ,,prison"well for the detention .The prison was built in northwest corner of Shahriston and consisted of several Chambers of debt  ,the cooler and dungeon , laid of brick with a diametr of about 5 metres and a depth 6.5 metres

This place used to keep dangerous criminals .Zindan is apit ,which I'd located under the ground ,it is in Shakhristan .The prison contained not more than 40 people ;you can understand that in the city of Bukhara ,as it is now a very low level of crime.
