BEKMIR KOZOK MADRASAH

Close to the bazaar and the main square, and built on the same model as the other two madrasas in the neighborhood, the Bekmir Kozok madrasa was founded in 1906 and financed by a wealthy sheep breeder. Since 1991, it has housed a library for blind and visually impaired people, who learn to read Braille. In general, these blind people have suffered from chemical fertilizers and pesticides during the cotton harvest, which was done without protection. One can enter for a visit and a short discussion with the director.
