The Shemarin Trading House on Eski Juva
The Shemarin Trading House on Eski Juva

On the square in front of the Chorsu market stands an old brick building that catches the eye. 

On the upper part of the facade, the construction date—1911—is laid out in bricks. 

This was a trading house called "Brothers Shemarin"—entrepreneurs from Tula who supplied their famous samovars to Turkestan. 

Residents of the nearby neighborhoods remember that during the Soviet era, the building housed District Polyclinic No. 4. 

Currently, the "Ipak Yuli" bank is located here. 

Unfortunately, the view of the building is spoiled by attached kiosks for ATMs.
