Kukeldash Madrasah is located in downtown Tashkent, very close to Chorsu Bazaar. Unlike many others we saw all over Uzbekistan which are mostly converted into a kind of shopping mall with ex classrooms converted into small shops, this one is still used for its original purpose - studying. Dating back to 16c it has an interesting history being converted into a carvansaray in 18c after which it started to deteriorate. Total collapse was when invaded and occupied by Imperial Russia in 1865. Soviets rebuilt it however used it as a storage place and workshops. After gaining independence it became a school again. Entry fee is around a dollar, but you cannot enter during lectures

Kökeldaş Medresesi, Taşkent, Özbekistan’da, Chorsu Meydanı ve Chorsu Pazarı yakınında bulunan 16. yüzyıldan kalma tarihi bir medresedir. 1570 yılında Şeybaniler döneminde, Taşkent hanlarının veziri Derviş Han tarafından inşa edilmiştir. "Kökeldaş" ismi, Derviş Han’ın hanın süt kardeşi anlamına gelen takma adından gelir. Geleneksel İslam mimarisine sahip medrese, sarı tuğladan yapılmış, kare planlı bir avluya, 20 metre yüksekliğinde büyük bir portala ve köşelerde guldasta adı verilen kulelere sahiptir Medrese, tarih boyunca farklı amaçlarla kullanılmıştır: 18. yüzyılda kervansaray, 19. yüzyılda Kokand hanlarının kalesi ve idam yeri olarak hizmet vermiştir. 1868 ve 1966 Taşkent depremlerinde hasar görmüş, ancak 1950’lerde ve sonrasında restore edilmiştir. Sovyet döneminde ateizm sergileri ve müzik aletleri müzesi olarak kullanılmış, Özbekistan’ın bağımsızlığından sonra ise yeniden dini eğitim kurumuna dönüştürülmüştür. Bugün Kökeldaş Medresesi, dini eğitim veren aktif bir kurumdur ve yaklaşık 100 öğrenciye ev sahipliği yapar. Avlusu, majolika ve sırlı tuğlalarla süslenmiş, panjara adı verilen güneş koruyucu kafeslerle dikkat çeker. Ziyaretçiler için açık olan medrese, sakin ve huzurlu bir atmosfere sahiptir ve Chorsu Pazarı ile birlikte gezilmesi önerilir

Very nice historic building. Entrance is 20.000 sum if you are tourist and 5000 sum if you are local. It is one of the most historic place in Tashkent. If you wanna understand the history of the town it is a nice place. Still standing after hundreds of years. There are also handcraft shops upstairs. The yard of the Madrasah is so cool. It is one of the must see attraction in Tashkent.

Madresa translated as a school where young men study Islam and what it teaches in order to become teachers themselves. There are active classes everyday . For visitors audio guides are available and it is also possible to take photos of the lovely garden inside and climb the second floor for better view of the entire place. Kokaldosh madresa is located next to chorsu market .

Tourist scam!!! There’s nothing to see inside and they charge you 15000 for entrance fee. It’s a school and you cannot go inside the classroom! You spend less than 2 minutes inside and the scammers are laughing. The outside is everything you need to see. DO NOT SUPPORT SCAMMERS! Go to Samarqand and Bukhara to see the real stuff! A lot of them are free!
