The site of the Ismaili Centre Dushanbe is located on Ismoili Somoni Avenue, named after the founder of the Samanid dynasty (early 10th century) and considered Tajikistan’s national hero.
The direction was to design a building that represented the great architectural traditions of this region, including its construction techniques, materials, and decorative motif.
