Yehudayoff Palace ("Armon") in the Bukharan quarter
The Bukharan Quarter (Hebrew: שכונת הבוכרים, Shkhunat HaBukharim), also HaBukharim Quarter or Bukharim Quarter,[a] is a neighborhood in the center of Jerusalem, Israel. The neighborhood was established by Bukharan Jews of the Old Yishuv. The neighborhood also anchored communities from modern-day Afghanistan and the Iranian city of Meshad.[citation needed] It belonged to the early Jewish neighborhoods built outside the Old City of Jerusalem as part of a process which began in the 1850s.[1] Today most of the residents are Haredi Jews.[2]
The quarter borders Tel Arza on the west, the Shmuel HaNavi neighborhood on the north, Arzei HaBira on the east, and Geula on the south.[citation needed]
The current Chief Rabbi of the Bukharan Quarter is Rabbi Shlomo Kassin.[3]
