The Guide to a Kosher Visit to Bukhara
Bukhara, the historic Silk Road city, is the cradle of the Bukharian Jewish community - one of the world's most ancient Jewish communities.
Old Bukhara
A restaurant in an ancient Bukharan home in the heart of the old city, near Hotel Asia, serving traditional Bukharian-Jewish cuisine - Bukharian plov and slow-cooked Shabbat dishes like oshi sabo.
Beyond the food
Combine a visit to the historic synagogue and Jewish quarter with the meal, for a full heritage experience.
A fascinating destination for anyone interested in family roots or the Jewish heritage of the Silk Road.
Stay in the kosher area of Bukhara
Bukhara does not have a modern Jewish quarter beyond the historic Jewish quarter. Old Bukhara (kosher restaurant listed on the site) is the anchor - book somewhere near it.
