Tash Rabat Caravanserai
Tash Rabat is a well-preserved stone caravanserai in the Naryn Province in eastern Kyrgyzstan, located at an altitude of 3,200 meters. Although some sources date its origins to a 10th century Christian Monastery, local sources say that it dates from the 15th century.
In any case, this caravanserai had a political and trade importance on the ancient Silk Road. It was a place of both rest and worship while serving to protect caravans traveling to and from China from both the ravages of the weather and of bandits.
