Challenging sights in Osh

  1. Dom Babura

    Local people call it Dom Babura, if you speak Russian, the friendly Uzbek caretaker will tell you more, and offer you a prayer for a few som. The steep 25-minute climb begins at a little gateway behind a futuristic silver dome on Kurmanjan Datka. The promontory offers long views but little to see except for a vast Muslim cemetery at the foot of the hill. Dusk is a good time to visit.
