Modari Khan madrasah

Modari Khan madrasah is a part of a Kosh madrasah complex. Kosh  means 'double' and is a general architectural term that can refer to any two opposing or facing halves of an ensemble. In Bukhara, it refers more specifically to the Modari Khan and Abdullah Khan Madrassah, situated a few hundred meters from the southwest corner of the Registan towards the old Shirgaron Gate.


It is one of the outstanding Central Asiatic architectual work. Here architector bravely deviated from canon rules in planning, moving capacities assimetrically beyond the rectangular building outlines, including new forms in usual composition. So there was appeared inside yard spacious hall with cupola on twelve-sided light drum, it is known as "Abdullah-khan sky-light". The hall combines 20 hydjrs, situated in 2 tiers.
