Hazrat Daud Cave Tour

Description

Hazrat Daud Cave – A Sacred Pilgrimage Site in Uzbekistan
One of the most remarkable pilgrimage sites near Samarkand is Hazrat Daud Cave, a place surrounded by legends and miracles. This cave is linked to Prophet David (Dawood) from the Bible, and many stories tell of the miraculous events that make it a sacred destination. Pilgrims visit the cave with heartfelt wishes, climbing 1,303 steps to reach it. Inside, they find David’s handprints and footprints, which they touch in the hope that their dreams will come true. Located 40 km (25 miles) from Samarkand, this site is not only a place of spiritual significance but also an incredible window into Uzbekistan’s rich cultural and religious heritage. If you seek a unique and meaningful experience, a tour to Hazrat Daud Cave is a must.

Our creative plan

At 09:00, your guide will meet you at your Samarkand hotel. Then you'll travel from Samarkand to Aksay village (40 kilometres, 1 hour). Arrive to the mountain's base (980m above sea level), where there are two routes to the summit: 1303 stairs or a horse road. Walking up the steps takes longer, thus it is preferable to choose the latter and travel to the top on horses or donkeys. After riding a horse for half an hour, you will arrive at the mosque and viewing platform (at a height of 1280m), which offers an excellent panoramic view of the Samarkand valley.
After visiting the mosque and enjoying the breathtaking views, you will descend (200 stairs) to Hazrat Daud Cave. There, you will be able to admire the scenery of the cave and stroll through the tunnel till you reach Hazrat Daud's fingerprints on his hands and feet. Then, return to the mosque and descend the stairs (1300 steps) into Aksay village. The one-day Hazrat Daud Cave tour will end with a return to Samarkand.
