Buyan-kuli khan mausoleum

Chagataid khan Buyan-kuli (died in 1358), the grandson of famous Duva-khan (died in 1307) was a pupil Seif ad-din Boharzi. The western part of Chagataid ulus with Bukhara was taken by amir Kazagan in 1346. He formally enthroned Buyan-kuli-khan and ruled on his behalf. When the son of Kazagan, amir Abd-allah took power, he executed Bayan-kuli-khan. One of reasons was that abd-allah wanted to marry Buyan - kuli - khan's wife. Buyan-kuli-khan was buried near the tomb of his teacher Sheikh Boharzi. The small mausoleum was decorated with carved glazed terracotta of blue, dark blue and white colors.
