The house-complex is located in Goziyon neighborhood, the old section of the city. The house belonged to Fayzulla Khojaev’s father Ubaydullokhoja, who was a rich merchant traded in karakul pelt in Russia, Germany and other countries. Fayzulla Khodjaev’s house is a wonderful example of the 19th – century residential architecture.The total area of the building is three hectares. It consists of a household section and havli darun, inside, female area and havli berun, external, male area.The balconies, reception and living rooms of the house demonstrate splendid examples of woodcarving and wall painting.The house-museum has the following exhibitions: the ethnographic exhibition, featuring rich merchants’ life of the 19th- 20th centuries, exhibition devoted to the life of Fayzullo Khodjaev, the outstanding Bukharan statesman, and the “Kitchen of a Wealthy Merchant’s House” exhibition.The exhibits of special interest are the crockery items (19th c.) made in the Gardner and Kuznetsov Russian factories, oriental musical instruments of the 19th century, the silk and velvet clothes of the Bukharans of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and the 19th -20th – century silver -and copperware of everyday use.

The house consists of two parts: the male part and the female part. In addition, there are rooms for household needs, a large living room of the "mekhmonkhona", small living rooms, balconies. Each room is decorated with carved wood, antiques, exclusive furniture, rare decoration. In many rooms you can see expensive dishes of those years, household items, clothes, painted vases and many other luxury items.Fayzulla Khodjaev (1896-1938) did not inherit the entrepreneurial streak from his father, he was a statesman, was engaged in promoting the ideas of Jadidism, later he headed the Bukhara People's Soviet Republic. In 1937, he was arrested in Tashkent in a controversial case, in 1938 he was sentenced to death and shot in Moscow. In 1965, he was completely rehabilitated.

Дом-музей Файзуллы ХоджаеваToday in the house-museum you can see echoes of the former heyday of the Bukhara emirate, several expositions telling about the life of the father and son of the Khojaevs. Among the valuable exhibits of the museum, one can note porcelain dishes, Uzbek musical instruments, elegant clothes of Bukharians. Visiting the extraordinary house-museum, you will be pleasantly surprised by the ethnographic exhibitions, magnificent decoration and examples of the luxurious life of Bukhara.

Fayzulla Khodjaev Museum was one of the most striking personalities in the political arena of Bukhara in the beginning of the 20th century. One of leaders of Young Bukharians- Jadids, a political figure, a patron of art, a fighter for equal rights and democracy, he was in 1938.

Fayzulla Khodjaev was born in the family of a wealthy trader Ubaydullokhoja. His father tried to give him the secular education, so Fayzulla Khodjaev studied in Russia for a long time. Upon his return home to Bukhara in 1913, he joined Bukharan Jadids. In 1916 -1920 he was one of the leaders of Young Bukharan Party (Jadids) that stroke against dehumanish activity of the Emir of Bukhara. Fayzulla Khodjaev and his close friend and brother-in-arms writer A.Fitrat organized a demonstration calling for the adoption of the constitution and reforms aimed at improving the life of people in Bukhara Emirate. The demonstration was broken up, Young Bukharans had to flee. When the Central Asia entered USSR, Fayzulla Khodjaev participated in the regional administration but was executed in 1937-1938 in the course of massive repressions.

People in Bukhara still honour the memory of Fayzulla Khodjaev. The fact that his family house became the Museum named after Fayzulla Khodjaev is another evidence of it. The house is located in famous Bukharan neighborhood Goziyon. The representatives of court nobility, rich merchants and traders lived here indigenously. Ubaydullokhoja, the father of Fayzulla Khojaev, built a number of houses in this block at the end of 1980s. He involved the most famous Bukharian architects who turned the house into a model of residential architecture in Bukhara

Fayzulla Khojaev Museum is distinguished with luxurious and refined interior of rooms. All rooms are skillfully decorated with wood carving and ganch. The whole tableware that once belonged to Khojaev’s family remained until nowadays.

Just like all rich houses of Bukhara, Fayzulla Khojaev house has havli darun, i.e. an internal bailey, and havli berun, outside yard. In Muslim states, havli darun was a typical female part of the house, while havli berun was a male area. The house also had stables, gardens and household premises.

To be noted, the house has a network of underground tunnels, their designation is still unknown. Perhaps, they were built by Ubaydullokhoja to hide from khan’s displeasure in case of danger, or perhaps, they have much more ancient story behind them and existed long before the house was built.

Today, Fayzulla Khodjaev’s Museum is open for visiting. It has a number of tableware sets, eastern furniture and other attributes of life of Bukharans in the 19th century. Also the museum visitors can learn Fayzulla Khodjaev’s biography and his activity until his death in 1938.

So our Todayʼs practice day was over , it was amazing and enjoyable.I advise My all Friends to come FAYZULLA KHUJAYEV HOME MUSEUM.It is Worth of spending time🫶✨
