Today was our first day in practice, was so amazing.Covered markets and passages were notable achievement for Europe only in the 19th century. In Russian cities only at the turn of the 20th century people began to raise the guest houses. And in Asia with its summer heat and winter winds, the covered markets were the prose of life from time immemorial. Huge trading domes with unshakable stone arches were in many Asian cities. They are clearly like the dome-shaped covered markets of many Uzbek cities, primarily Tashkent bazaar Chorsu. But we can contemplate four medieval (16th century) trading domes in Bukhara. Their scale is impressive even now.

In Bukhara the bazaars were a place of trade, a meeting place for business people, a place of spectacle and entertainment at the same time. Located along the main thoroughfares, crowded with benches and handicraft workshops, they always swarmed with riders and wayfarers, a cluster of loaded bullock carts and camels.

The trading domes of Bukhara became the same symbol of the city as the fortress of the Arch or Kalyan Minaret. They are located on a busy highway in the heart of Bukhara from Lyabi-House to the Mir-i Arab Madrasah. The erection of the covered bazaars refers to the flourishing of the Khanate in the 16th century, when the state was ruled by representatives of the Sheibanid dynasty, under which its capital Bukhara was also experiencing an unprecedented prosperity. During this period, many religious architectural ensembles were built, including 360 mosques and 80 madrasahs. The commercial life of Bukhara became very lively. Mass construction of the covered markets, which were built mainly at the intersection of several busy streets, was developed. First they built a dome "taki", and then under its covered space shopping benches, as well as workshops of artisans were set up.
