Babur's House
Бабурдун үйү
A small prayer house on the main peak of Sulayman-Too, where Babur, founder of the Mughal Empire, is said to have prayed as a youth. The current building is a reconstruction.
According to Babur's memoirs, he built a small hut on the summit of Sulayman-Too around 1497. The surviving structure is a reconstruction on the original site, rebuilt in 1989 after it was destroyed during the Soviet period. Though very small, it is the most important pilgrimage site on the mountain and the best place to view Osh below. Visitors must remove their shoes before entering, and women are advised to cover their shoulders. It marks the end of the climb from the eastern steps.
