Aisha-Bibi and Babaja-Khatun mausoleums

Aisha-Bibi and Babaja-Khatun mausoleums belong to the typical Central Asian tradition of medieval memorial architecture. Cube-shaped small buildings with thick walls, without a portal, with a single square room, in the center of which there was a coffin of the deceased. The external facades are decorated with architectural elements such as arches, channels, and niches. There is a small parapet on the perimeter of the flat roof. In the center of the roof there is a circular drum, on top of which there is a cone-shaped dome with flat or ribbed surface.
