Mausoleum of Hazrat Sultan is a memorial site located in the Shut village of the Koʻhsor neighborhood in the Kitob district of Qashqadaryo region, dating back to the 12th to 13th centuries.[1] According to the rights of non-residential property, it is considered state property, operated under the jurisdiction of the cultural heritage department of the Qashqadaryo region (on the basis of operational management rights). It is designated as a state-owned property in accordance with the agreement for the use of the "Vaqf" charitable community fund.
By the decision of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan on February 24, 2021, regarding additional measures to develop internal and pilgrimage tourism, the immovable property objects of the tangible cultural heritage were included in the national list — they are under state protection.[2]
The ancient part of the Mausoleum of Hazrati Sulton consists of a long corridor and leads to the domed pilgrimage site through a wide paved path.[3] There are three domes covering the pilgrimage site. The mausoleum was reconstructed in the 16th to 18th centuries.[3][4] It underwent further renovations in 1895.
