On the map
One clear point for Sitorai Mokhi-Khosa Palace — Last-emir rooms, garden approach, and applied art.
Place
The map pin marks this attraction so the stop stays readable in the day plan.
Why this place matters
The palace changes the Bukhara route by moving from mosques, madrasahs, and bazaar streets into the summer world of the last emir. Built in the early 20th century, the new palace brings Bukharan craft, European-influenced interiors, museum displays, and garden space into one stop. «Sitorai shows another side of Bukhara: garden paths, mirrored rooms, and the court world of the last emir.»
What you will see
The sequence is strongest when you move from the gate and garden into mirrored interiors and applied-art displays. The museum rooms keep the palace connected to real objects, not just empty architecture.
How to visit
Sitorai feels different because it begins with a short drive and opens slowly through the garden, interiors, and displays. It fits best when the old-city anchors are not being rushed.
What to add nearby
The Ark and Bolo-Hauz sit naturally before the palace extension. Poi-Kalyan and the Trading Domes keep the old-city route clear when Sitorai is planned as a separate drive.

Fortress walls, museum rooms, a raised entrance, and Bolo-Hauz nearby show Bukhara's ruling side at the edge of the old city.
View
The Kalyan minaret, mosque, Miri-Arab Madrasah, brick courtyards, and old Bukhara lanes form the city's key ensemble.
View
A hauz, carved wooden columns, painted ceiling, and the Ark nearby make Bolo-Hauz one of Bukhara's easiest architectural pauses.
View
Covered brick passages, shops, textiles, copperwork, and bargaining keep the old city tied to Bukhara's trading life.
