Description
According to the legend, it was built over the grave of Ismail ata's brother (the second son of Ibrahim ata) on the site of an earlier mausoleum. Located to the right of the gate, opposite the mosque, at the intersection of two alleys. Portal-dome mausoleum with a square chamber with the sizes approximately 4×4 m. It is combined from a rectangular brick of the European sample. The southern and western facades are architecturally designed. This was influenced by the peculiarities of memorial architecture of Islam in the Syr Darya region, associated with Sufi rituals of remembrance (it is enough to remember the two-portal mausoleums of Sairam, as well as the emphasis on the southern and western facades of other mausoleums). The southern (main) facade is solved in the form of a portal with a pointed arch in a U-shaped frame. The portal is located in the same plane with the side walls. Its corners are flanked by three-quarter columns. The western facade is divided by vertical blades into three flat arches, in the middle of which there is a window aperture.
Architectural monument of republican importance. Since 1982 it has been protected by the state. The object of pilgrimage and religious tourism.
