The architectural complex Hazrati-Bobo is located on the territory of the village of Chorku, located in Sughd region. The complex includes a wooden mausoleum of Amir Hamza Sohibkiron, a room for sacrifices, a wooden minaret and the remains of an ancient cemetery. Around the perimeter of the complex are the remains of a mud fence.

The building has a canopy that is supported by carved columns decorated with ornaments. The height of the seven wooden columns reaches two and a half meters. It is known that in 1904 the reconstruction of the complex was completed, during which decorative grilles were added. The wooden minaret next to the mausoleum has three tiers.

According to local legend, the walls of the wooden mausoleum buried Muslim Saint Hazrati-Bobo and king Amir Hamza Sohibkiron. The time of construction of the mausoleum dates back to X-XII centuries. There is a version that the construction of the complex in the pre-Muslim period could have a different purpose than the cult.
