Bagyr is a former village that has been annexed by the city of Ashgabat, the capital of Turkmenistan. It is presently a neighborhood of the capital city. Bagyr features archeological sites.[1]
A fortress constructed in the 19th century, the walls are all that remains.
An octagonal domed structure (also called Shikh Alou Mausoleum), this is believed to house the tomb of Nasipuri Sufi ascetic Abū ʿAlī al-Daqqāq (d. 1015).
