Hujras Mukimi museum is housed in the madrassah Mien Khazrat - an architectural monument of late XVIII century. Mien Akhad was a native of Peshawar (Pakistan). Once he arrived in Kokand and remained here. He prominent thanks to his knowledge of theology, he deserved respect of people. Having inherited from Pakistan, he erected the madrassah, which got his name.

For many years the eminent poet Aminkhuja Mukimi, whose works have been admired today, had been teaching and living in this madrassah.

Mukimi museum’s exposure

The exposition of Mukimi museum consisting of three parts tells about Mukimi’s life and work. The parts are Mukimi’s hujra, creativity of Mukimi and literary environment of Kokand of the second half of the XIX century.
