Once, foreign researchers considered the vast expanses of the Great Steppe, hidden within the impenetrable Soviet Union, to be a wild and primitive land with little historical interest. Their astonishment was palpable when the iron curtain fell, revealing Kazakhstan's medieval architectural masterpieces to the world. The majestic mausoleum of Khoja Ahmed Yasawi captured the imagination, its blue domes rivalling the sky itself. The Aisha-Bibi mausoleum, located slightly east, is more modest but also gentler, more feminine. Both of these grand complexes continue to attract researchers seeking to unravel their mysteries.
