On the map
One clear point for Dakhma-i-Shahan — A royal family tomb and Nodira's memory in Kokand.
Place
The map pin marks this attraction so the stop stays readable in the day plan.
Why this place
Khudoyar Khan Palace shows the public side of the Kokand Khanate. Dakhma-i-Shahan changes the scale: through carved wood you enter a courtyard with family burials, Quranic inscriptions, and the memory of Nodira and Umarkhan.
What you'll see
Move in order: the carved entrance, inner courtyard, burials, small mosque, and decorative work in wood and ganch.
How to visit
The complex is compact, but it needs a respectful order: entrance, courtyard, burials, inscriptions, and a short context for Nodira and the Kokand khans.
What to add nearby
Khudoyar Khan Palace, Jameh Mosque, and Norbut-biy Madrasah give Dakhma-i-Shahan the right context: the former capital moves from power to mosque courtyard, study architecture, and royal household memory.

Khudoyar Khan Palace opens Kokand with a ceramic facade, courtyards, museum rooms, and the khanate story before Margilan silk and Rishtan ceramics.
View
Jameh Mosque in Kokand brings 98 wooden columns, a broad courtyard, a khanaka, and a minaret into the route beside Khudoyar Khan Palace.
View
Norbut-biy Madrasah in Kokand brings a brick courtyard, hujras, corner towers, and study history into the route near Chorsu.
