Sacred through the ages. The Magoki Attor, the "Pit of Herbalists", is Bukhara's oldest sacred site. Archaeological excavations have shown that a religious building has always stood here over the centuries. The oldest remains are of a pagan temple (could this have been the temple where the legendary Prince Mach encouraged people to buy idols?), which once housed a Buddhist shrine, and from the 5th century a Zoroastrian fire temple, built on in turn again in the 9th century it was replaced by a mosque. It is believed that until the construction of the first synagogue, the Jews held their religious services here. The current mosque is a mishmash of styles as the building has suffered a lot over the ages. The "pit" where the mosque stands is in fact the street level of 12th century Bukhara. Do not miss this small mosque when visiting Bukhara!

Oldest mosque of Bukhara, that used to be buried six metres deep under the city's floor.

Sadly the mosque has been turned into carpets meusium. The ticket is 20,000.

Incredible

Interesting architecture on the outside of the mosque. The entry fee is 10000 som per person. Its totally converted into a carpet Museum. One is not permitted to climb the staircase in the corner of the mosque. We did not enter the mosque.

Extremely extremely cool mosque. Over the years it was used as a Zoroastrian temple, a Buddhist temple, a Christian church, and a mosque. If you look carefully at the details you will see evidence of each culture’s influence on the building.

Admission 20K noy mosque a kind of small carpet museum. Nothing to see just see outside thats enough. Save 30k

(Translated by Google) Magoki Attori Mosque. None of the ancient monuments of the city hides as many mysteries for archaeologists and historians as this one. Before the Arab conquest, there was a bazaar where idol, medicinal potions, and attoron spices were traded; there was a cult pagan center with a temple of fire-worshipers - the temple of the moon (Moss). Arabs, having captured Bukhara, founded in the 9th century on the site of the temple of the moon one of the first mosques. The fire of 937 destroyed the mosque. In the XII century, according to the same plan, a new building was erected, from which a portal with a unique monochrome decor was preserved in the south, the building collapsed in the XV century. The revival of the mosque dates back to 1546. The most amazing thing is that the mosque could just disappear under layers of dust and sand. The first part of the name of the mosque “Magok” means “pit” - “Mosque in a pit” - and it drifted almost 4.5 meters, so restorers in 1930 had to literally dig out the facade, freeing the southern portal of the mosque with unique ornamental brickwork and archaic XI century carved majolica ornaments. This portal of the XII century. It is considered one of the most perfect works of Bukhara architecture. (Original) Мечеть Магоки-Аттори. Ни один из древних памятников города не скрывает так много загадок для археологов и историков как этот. До арабского завоевания здесь был базар, где торговали идолами, лекарственными снадобьями и пряностями-атторон; там же находился культовый языческий центр с храмом огнепоклонников - храм Луны (Мох). Арабы, захватив Бухару, основали в IХ веке на месте храма Луны одну из первых мечетей. Пожар 937 года разрушил мечеть. В XII веке по тому же плану было возведено новое здание, от которого на юге сохранился портал с уникальным монохромным декором, здание же разрушилось в XV веке. Возрождение мечети относится к 1546 году. Самое удивительное, что мечеть могла просто исчезнуть под наслоениями пыли и песка. Первая часть названия мечети "Магок" означает «яма» - «Мечеть в яме» - и её занесло почти на 4,5 метра, так что реставраторам в 1930 году пришлось буквально откапывать фасад, освободив южный портал мечети с уникальной орнаментальной кирпичной кладкой и архаичными орнаментами резной майолики XI века. Этот портал XII в. считается одним из наиболее совершенных произведении бухарского зодчества.

One of the Oldest monuments

The outside of the mosque is beautiful. The inside is a carpet museum, a bit disappointing.

So old , well preserved. Interesting place. Now a carpet (and some more) museum

Was a old zaroastrian temple. Now it is one of the oldest mosques in Bukhara. It has a fine artwork outside and inside.

Ok

Lovely place, museum of carpets.

It's a carpet museum now. So, all of its past Zoroastrian & Buddhist heritage is lost as a result.

Better to view from outside. Inside is just about a dozen carpets and nothing else.

🕌Magoki Attori mosque (12 century) - "mosque in the pit" is the translation, instead of which there used to be Zoroastrian temple, Buddhist shrine and after constructing the mosque by Arabs it was served as a synagogue to Jews of Bukhara. Bukhara Jewish prayed there too and...moreover, 2 elements of that mosque reminds us about holy Tora🕎 It will remain in your heart for a long time😍
