Place & context
History
Hazrati Imam brings together several strands of old Tashkent’s religious life: worship, learning, manuscript heritage and remembrance. The complex is best approached through those institutions and their individual histories. Its inclusion in the atlas reflects that shared sacred setting without turning every associated text or monument into a Sufi artefact.
