The Mausoleum of Khoja Mashkhad is located 6 km south of Shaartuz in the Khatlon province of Tajikistan.
The mausoleum is a rare example of a pre-Mongol madrasah from the 11th and 12th centuries. [1] Two large, domed structures are connected at the middle by a small arch, constructed of mud-brick. Due to the building materials used, the structure is prone to decay and is in need of conservation. [2]
This site was added to the UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List on November 9, 1999, in the Cultural category. [3]
