The complex includes the necropolis of family tombs, and courtyards enclosed with walls.

==History== The Chor Bakr Memorial Complex, also known as Sumitan's cemetery, was established by Shaybanid ruler Abdullaxon II in 1559, and it includes a mausoleum, a mosque, a madrasa, and a large courtyard surrounded by high walls. In the following centuries, additional buildings were constructed, and the complex was expanded to include adjacent areas. Abdullaxon II allocated 70,000 gold coins for the construction of this memorial complex. The central building of the complex is the mausoleum, which has doors on all four sides. The mausoleum has a two-story structure with two rooms and a domed chamber on top. The mihrab (prayer niche) is located on the qibla side of the mausoleum. The dome of the mausoleum is built in the Arki duzi style. The verses 61 and 62 of Surah Al-Baqara are inscribed on the front facade of the mausoleum. The courtyard measures 20 meters in length, while the front entrance is 12 meters wide. right|250px|thumb|Tombs at Chor-Bakr Mausoleum The Chor Bakr Madrasah in the Chor Bakr Memorial Complex is one of the highest-ranking madrasas and underwent renovation work in 1950, 1971, and 1999.
