Nodir Devanbegi

 Today we went to Nodir Devanbegi Madrasah Nodir Devonbegi - Madrasah in Bukhara, part of the architectural ensemble of the XVI-XVII centuries Lyabi-house. The madrasah was built in 1622-1623. by the vizier of Imamkuli-khan, Uzbek dignitary Nodir Devon-run as a caravanserai, but was later converted into a madrasah. In 1993, the madrasah, along with other monuments of the historical center of Bukhara, was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.




Nodir Devonbegi Madrasah is located in the eastern part of Lyabi Khauz Square, opposite the khanaka Nodir Devonbegi, thus forming a kosh with a khanaka. On the central line of the kosh is the house Devonbegi.


The alteration of the madrasah from the karvan-shed is indicated by the layout of the building: there is no lecture hall typical of the madrassah, and there are only hujras around the courtyard. In Central Asian architecture, as a rule, instead of the main entrance, a lattice window is placed on the portal axis, and the portal diverges into different wings of the building. However, in the Nodir Begi Madrasah, a narrow entrance leads directly to the courtyard.adrasahrasah . We knew so many things about it
