[1][2] This prestigious educational institution was built in the Hijri year 836 (corresponding to 1432/33 in the Gregorian calendar) beside the grave of Shaykh Abdul Khaliq Ghijduwani, with a two-story structure made of baked bricks.
[5][6][7] Ulugbek Madrasah located in Gijduvon was situated along the great caravan route of the Timurid era, known as the "Silk Road," which connected Bukhara to Samarkand.
It was esteemed by scholars such as Amir Temur, Yusuf Hamadani, Abdul Khaliq Ghijduwani, Ahmad Yasawi, and Baha' al-Din Naqshband.
[8] Based on the research of the orientalist and historian Abdusattor Jumanazar, the Ulugbek Madrasah was built in the Hijri year 836 (corresponding to 1432/33 in the Gregorian calendar).
[6] While the madrasa was operational in an area that wasn't extensively large ("Hojai Jahon sarmozori"), seven educational centers were active until the Bukhara Revolution.
[10][11][6] The cupola's coverings were redone, and the older section of the madrasa, the mausoleum, and the newly constructed mosque were refurbished to meet modern standards.
The entrance side boasts an elevated, vaulted portal adorned with alcoves and fitted with latticed windows for ventilation.
