This is a functioning madrasah, very beautiful, well-maintained, cozy. Entrance fee is 15,000 SOM. Students go back and forth, so tourists can't walk all over the territory. There is an opportunity to go up to the 2nd floor and admire from the balcony.
The current madrasah, ancient architecture, you can walk around the courtyard and climb to the balcony. On the second floor there is a workshop where interesting jewelry boxes are made by hand
A beautiful madrasah with a well-kept green courtyard. Located next to the Chor Su market, you can combine shopping and a cultural program :). The entrance is 15,000 soums. Inside, there is always a shadow along one of the walls, you can take a break, admire the trees, the courtyard and the madrasah itself. It's a pity there are no shops like in the madrasah of Samarkand. There are workshops, I had one copper and wood craftsman working on the second floor.
It's just that the building is one of two or three similar ones preserved in Tashkent. There is practically no historical monument in Tashkent. Only such madrassas, practically a new model. It was also restored by the "damned occupiers" in the 1960s, as well as all the historical buildings of the country.)
This is an active madrasah in Tashkent. Upon entering this madrasah, there is a different atmosphere, the student is very polite, educated in one word, the madrasah goes along with the time at the level of education and upbringing.If you have a desire to study or teach your children, I recommend it.
It's beautiful, but you shouldn't drive purposefully. If you're around, you can come in. The entry price is 15,000 soums. Girls are given a handkerchief. There's not much to see. You will be allowed to climb two balconies (one in the courtyard, the second on the street), and take a walk in the courtyard. All the beauty is outside.
You can enter the Madrasah by buying a ticket for 15,000 soums. In fact, you can walk 30 meters inside, no more. Or go up to the second floor and look at the courtyard of the Madrasah from above. Everything is very nice, clean, classes are going on in the classrooms. The visit will take no more than 5 minutes. But it's still interesting.
Our very first place to get acquainted with Uzbekistan, next to the Chorsu market. A beautiful building. In the Center of Tashkent.

One of the few buildings of the Middle Ages that survived in Tashkent after the earthquake. It has been restored very decently. The educational institution is active. Those who wish can enter the courtyard and some rooms for a fee. From my point of view, this is for an amateur. Why did they limit themselves to just inspecting the facade of the building?
The place is religious, girls can be provided with headscarves at the entrance (to cover the bare areas of the body). Only 15% of the entire attraction will be visited/seen.
We arrived during business hours, but in the evening.
There's no one there, and the lights are off. As a result, an employee came out from somewhere and began looking for a place to turn on the lighting in the courtyard. He searched for so long that we left.
The historical landmark, thank God, has been preserved! In a very good way. It is very interesting and informative. This story! Ours! You can make a conclusion about how, when and what to do and what not to do!
An impressive complex. The scale is amazing. It is amazing how all this was done in its time and how it has been restored in our days. A grandiose structure.
A beautiful madrasah, still in operation, classes are held in the classrooms. The entrance costs 10,000 soums (the lowest price tag of all for such places). Next to the entrance, you can read the history of creation and existence to the present day, briefly and informatively, in several languages (there is also Russian). Visitors are invited to climb the internal stairs to the balconies of the second floor and explore the city and the courtyard from them, you can take photos. There is a souvenir workshop in the room on the second floor with access to the balcony of the courtyard. There we bought amazing cotton scarves with lemongrass for 30,000 soums, there are also a lot of earrings, pendants, bracelets, wooden caskets (with and without a secret lock), wooden plates and everything is handmade at a good price. The courtyard of the madrasah is very green and beautiful, it combines lush green grass with flowers, trees and paths.
I recommend you to visit!
A pleasant and culturally informative place. Another cultural monument for a more complete understanding of Uzbekistan. Moreover, the existing educational institution. But if you are not interested in the story, then you can make a great video and photo shoot. The entrance costs a symbolic amount of 10,000 sums.
It may be beautiful, but the very fact that a religious place for tourists in 3(!!!) It is three times more expensive than for citizens of Uzbekistan, critically disappointing, I did not even want to visit. I share the opinion that it is possible and sometimes necessary to make donations/ pay for passage to maintain cultural heritage sites, but not three times as much.......
A beautiful historical building. Entrance is paid (10/30 depending on whether you are a guest of the country or a local). You can't walk inside. You can only look from the spot as you enter the building or from the second floor (but it turns out from the same point, only higher)

A quiet, peaceful place. You can relax inside, because the big city is noisy and bustling outside the walls. It is a pity that all Madrassas have turned into mini markets, and not into museums
A grandiose structure for me. I definitely advise all guests of the capital to visit it. One of the main attractions. Built in the 16th century. This madrasah works to this day and trains hundreds of students and trains imams.
The coolest, authentic place in Tashkent!
Nearby is the Chorsu market, where they sell everything, including national paraphernalia: kurpachi mattresses, pillows, cradles, souvenirs at a lower cost than at other points of sale.
Especially interesting are national chapans, dresses, skullcaps! Also fruits, vegetables, meat and more. But get ready to walk for a long time, but it is useful for a person
An interesting place. It is always cleanly swept and watered. The people are friendly. The architecture is not very ancient, but there is something to see
As befits a madrasah, everything is there, everyone who is there is good, responsive and kind, a beautiful place, especially after the renovation, even though it took a long time
Kukeldash Madrasah, located in the Old Town near Chorsu Bazaar, was built in 1570 during the reign of the Sheibanid dynasty. Its construction was supervised by the vizier of Barak Khan and Dervish Khan, who received the nickname "Kukeldash" (foster brother) for his proximity to the rulers. The madrasah was named after him. It has become not only an educational institution, but also part of the ensemble of the main city square.
The madrasah building could compete with the beauty of the artistic cladding and the abundance of sky-blue majolica with the best works of the architects of Samarkand and Bukhara. However, numerous earthquakes in the 19th century, restorations and indifference during the period of economic decline completely changed the original appearance of the building.
The madrasah has repeatedly fallen into disrepair and was used for other purposes. For example, in the XVII century it housed a caravanserai.
During the Soviet period in the middle of the XX century, there was an exhibition dedicated to the atheistic lifestyle, and then an exposition of national instruments of Uzbekistan.
