It's not the most interesting building to visit in Bukhara, there's not much to see inside, but there are a lot of sellers who try to cram you trinkets for a lot.
Entrance is paid, inside the exposition of the museum and the mosque, an architectural park.It is worth going to the guests of the city-a beautiful view opens up
a good place to spend time, if you are still interested in something, and ask, then you can learn a lot of new and unusual things, especially related stories with antiques, but this is just a little.
A citadel with an unusual shape of the walls, reconstruction work was carried out on the other side of the gate. In general, an interesting place, there is also something to see inside!) I recommend it!)
Buxoro arki — Oʻzbekistonning Buxoro shahridagi qadimiy ark; atrofidagi maydon sathidan qariyb 20 metr balandlikda koʻtarilgan va taxminan 4 gektar maydonni egallagan monumental qal’a. Qalʼa Buxoroning eng qadimiy meʼmoriy va arxeologik yodgorligi hisoblanadi. Bu qal’a tepalikni tashkil etgan koʻp asrlik vayronagarchilik qatlamlariga ega shaharning eng qadimiy qismi hisoblanadi
To be honest, the impression is twofold. Huge fortress walls, several buildings, location in the city - everything is impressive. But there is nothing else, an empty stone desert inside the walls.
The appearance is grandiose, inside, in order to be interesting, it is necessary to walk with a guide, otherwise you will not get full pleasure and it is not clear.
The citadel of the Ark of the shield is almost ready, before Genghis Khan, unfortunately, 30% remained from the fortress. But it's worth a look at the timbola there this year, now the cetodel is being restored.

A beautiful fortress with a very rich history, be sure to take a guide the price is 300 rubles for 1 hour, he will tell you everything about this museum and more!
A formidable madam stands at the entrance and collects money for admission. Local 10,000, foreigners 40,000. Moreover, they do not give tickets, and the turnstiles do not work. It's the same everywhere in Bukhara: you pay money, but they don't give you tickets. The direct opposite of Samarkand. There's not much to see inside. The view of the city is not bad, but you can't get close to the wall, it's cordoned off. The wall is still being completed
Externally, it looks monumental. But I expected much more from visiting the museum. The part of the citadel accessible to tourists is very small. In fact, it is a small museum of local lore - a few coins, shards and items of national clothing, books and photographs. You can rent a guide, there are a lot of them there. And there are souvenir sellers all around, who are absolutely out of place there. It's not worth the money you paid.
We planned to watch the sunset from the walls of the fortress, but at the checkout, despite the fact that I specifically clarified this point, they remained silent or pretended that they did not understand. As a result, it turned out that it was impossible to walk along the walls and had to be content with a tour of the local history museum and some shops. It's not interesting!
It is amazing by the height of the walls. The museum's exposition seemed modest. For a city with such a long time history, they thought to see more and more ancient. But overall it was interesting.
For a place that was of strategic importance, the impression is excellent. But the mezei inside is a horror. Of all the halls, I liked only 2, in all the others the exhibits are stretched, repeated. There was a feeling that the space was there, but there was nothing to fill it with, so everything is duplicated. There are very few diaries, tables, photos and genealogies. And also, taking into account the large number of foreign tourists, it would be possible to take care of signatures to certificates. Otherwise, everything is in Uzbek, nothing is clear. There are guides not everywhere. It's a little weak for your money, but it's worth going.
I can only appreciate the outside, I have not visited the citadel itself. It looks very monumental. Reconstruction is underway in some places. You can take an electric car tour.
The structure is impressive. I definitely recommend you to visit. You can start exploring Bukhara from this place. And then go around everything on foot.
We went to Bukhara for this. Definitely worth a visit. An ancient place, well preserved. The old town is quite big, you can spend the whole day in it. Take a guide. 1 hour is enough.
An interesting place, a lot of museums and an observation deck (you need to go there until 17:00 local time, as it is darker, they can no longer let you on it). At a price of 40000sum, but there is really a lot to see. We liked it.
The exposition is not large, but it is well done. I recommend finding a way on the Internet to get to an undeveloped part of the fortress for a fraction of a small amount... There's not much to see there, but the views of old Bukhara are amazing...
