One of the most visited places in Bukhara, it is located near the Lyabi-Hauz Square, among the masterpieces of ancient architecture. The monument is unique in that Nasrudin sits astride a donkey correctly, while others sit backwards. It was installed in 1979. There is a sign that if you put a child on a donkey of Khoja Nasreddin, then his life will be filled with joy and positive emotions. But there is a feeling that a monument to the legendary deceiver of all times and peoples was erected in Bukhara for a reason (although, according to legend, he was born here), that is, the deception was exalted into a cult, which is confirmed by local merchants in relation to foreigners. Tourists should be vigilant.

A kind, sincere and truly national monument in the heart of the old city of golden Bukhara. The monument appeared here in 1979. And it is no longer possible to imagine the image of Bukhara. The monument is always crowded. To take a photo on the background, you will most likely have to stand in a long queue.

It's a very beautiful place. The center of the architectural structure. The monument is located in the very center of the tourist spot on the Lyabi Hauz Square. There are many hotels and places nearby where you can spend time both at breakfast and dinner. There is a shopping area and shopping domes nearby. All popular attractions are within walking distance

Monument to the hero of Oriental fairy tales, the merry man, the cunning and the wise, Khoja Nasreddin. Well, who didn't read fairy tales about him in childhood? Riding on a donkey, he greets the guests of Bukhara.

A beautiful monument to the hero of the eastern epics Khoja Nasretdin! A great place to relax, take walks, and take a photo as a keepsake. Nearby is the Labi House restaurant - the food is delicious, varied, the portions are decent - you will not go hungry. Dancing to live music, meeting with friends who have gone far away.

Probably the busiest and most visited place in the historical center of Bukhara, one of the main attractions of the Soviet era on the ancient Lyabi House square. Walking through the old town, you will not pass by in any way. Riding on a donkey with a sly smile on his face sits the legendary life-loving Nasruddin, whom I knew from children's books. Camera flashes blink at the monument day and night, children frolic carelessly, and a festive atmosphere reigns. The monument is located in a small park, surrounded by the most beautiful architectural ensemble of the oldest central square of Bukhara - Lyabi House, known since the XVI century. The breath of the ancient East is felt here with might and main. Nearby, in all directions along the streets and alleys, there are many souvenir shops, authentic craft workshops, cafes. On the square, along a large artificial pond, there is an outdoor terrace of the Labi House restaurant. Dinner by the water is wonderful. Along the perimeter of the pond there are picturesque wooden carved statues of resting camels and Oriental elders. Khoja Nasreddin, like us, peacefully admires all this beauty.

The historical landmark of ancient Bukhara, I advise you to visit. The monument to Khoja Nasreddin is a symbolic embodiment of the legendary wit and national hero of Central Asia. Located between the Madrasah and the Lyabi House, this monument is an integral part of the historical heritage of Bukhara. Established in 1979, the author of the sculpture is the famous sculptor Yakov Shapiro. The monument is made of bronze, Khoja Nasreddin is depicted sitting on a donkey, with his left hand clutching a coin, and with a kind smile on his face. The monument is a popular place for photo shoots and attracts the attention of tourists. It is believed that if you put a child on a donkey in front of Nasruddin, he will have a successful and fun life. Located in a pleasant location, near historical sites and a pond with cozy cafes, the monument to Khoja Nasreddin is an integral part of the picturesque and picturesque city of Bukhara.

I love Solovyov's novel about Khoja Nasreddin, he has aroused an extraordinary interest in Uzbek culture since childhood :) the monument is so good that it is impossible not to admire the virtuoso cunning of our hero's face and his gestures, a coin in his hand - meaning that you have to pay for everything in life, since everything has its price :))) beautiful, noble Bukhara definitely won by installing this monument in the heart of the city!

A semi-mythical hero of numerous short stories, stories and anecdotes. It seems to me that in my childhood he was very widely known, not only to children in Central Asia, but throughout the Soviet Union. And now they don't even know him... Very sorry. It is located in a park, there is shade from big trees, it is pleasant. There's a restaurant nearby.

The sculpture was created with such love for the character that it is popular not only with children, but also with adults. Although, who Khoja Nasredin is is known only from Soviet times. It is difficult to take a picture at the sculpture, because everyone wants to do it.

What Khoja Nasreddin really might have looked like is a matter for endless debate, and here is one of the interpretations of his image that looks quite appropriate in the city where he experienced so many adventures. Whether it worked out or not is up to everyone to decide for themselves how to answer the question: is Nasrudin coming to Bukhara or leaving it?

A very beautiful monument. It is located in a beautiful place next to the Nodir-Divan-Begi madrasah, a little further than the Khanaka Divan-Begi, well, close to the pond of the Labi Hovuz restaurant. In general, there are only sights nearby. I advise you to take a look.

The landmark of Bukhara, which is a landmark for many taxi drivers. Be sure to rub your tail for good luck! Well, of course, we need to recall some of the wisdom of Haji Nasredin. About the ass and the Padishah, or about poverty and wealth.

The monument to Khoja Nasriddin is a place of pilgrimage for foreign and domestic tourists. It can be said to be an architectural masterpiece of a combination of historical folklore and modern art design. Its convenient location in the shade of beautiful green gujums attracts tourists and they take numerous selfies with this historical character.

A cute little man on a donkey, the hero of jokes, radiates positive energy. There are always a lot of people around him. Some guides assign a meeting place "at the tail of Haji Nasreddin's donkey." That's why his tail is the most shiny. Be sure to visit 😇, recharge your batteries.

The monument is dedicated to the folklore hero of oriental parables, fairy tales and jokes. This is a collective image of a wise, cunning man from the people. On this monument, Khoja Nasreddin appears in the image of a thin oriental man in a national robe with a welcoming gesture. He is sitting on a donkey, rubbing the tail of which, according to the guide, you will get the fulfillment of desires. (The information is unverified, but the donkey's tail is really shiny!)

Someone said that Yakov Shapiro, the creator of the Khoja Nasreddin monument, was not a great sculptor, but he was a good master. I have not seen other works by this master, but looking at this sculpture, I do not agree with this opinion. Only a great artist in his skill can convey the character of this character in this way. The cunning and cunning of Khoja Nasreddin, the intelligence and stubbornness of his ass... This monument is the same decoration of the Labi House as the historical ensemble around the pond.
