About the place

Ishoqxon Tura Ibrat (1862–1937) was a scholar, poet and educator from Turakurgan, near Namangan, and one of the Jadid reformers who opened new-method schools and promoted printing and the study of languages in the Fergana Valley. He died in the repressions of 1937.

The memorial complex in his home town opened on 3 May 2018. It brings together a museum about his life and work, a garden, a memorial alley, a reconstructed printing house that recalls his publishing activity, and a statue of the writer. It is a quiet stop on the road between Namangan and the western part of the valley.
