About the place
The Mavlon Buva mausoleum in Namangan is dated to 1806, the year 1221 of the Hijri calendar, during the Kokand Khanate. It is associated with the poet Mavlavi Namangani, and the name Mavlon Buva, roughly grandfather Mavlon, reflects the affection locals have for him.
The building is modest: its prayer room, the ziyoratxona, measures about seven by seven metres. Repairs were carried out in 1905 and again in 1957. It stands close to the Afsonalar Vodiysi park in the city, so it makes a short, quiet stop of about twenty minutes during a day in Namangan.
