    Hiking

    The tower served as the city of Bukhara's water supply system until 1975, when a fire broke out and the wooden paneling of the tower burned down.
    Today the tower has been restored and serves as a tourist attraction. There is a cafe and a restaurant on the first and second floors, and a stunning view of the historic city center opens from the third floor.

    Unfortunately the tower was closed - as it is currently being renovated.

    Former water tower built according to the system of Soviet engineer Vladimir Shukhov.
    Metal strips without support descend from the support ring of the foundation to the ground, and the tower itself resembles a network of individual blocks attached to each other. The stability and lightness of the structure allow it to resist the wind.
    Today the tower has been restored and serves as a tourist attraction. A cafe and a restaurant are open on the first and second floors, and a breathtaking view of the historic city center opens from the third floor.
