Along the road leading from the Mausoleum of Samanides through the park stands another mausoleum - Chashma-iy-Ayub (Job's well). It is a complicated monument, one which was repeatedly reconstructed during the period from the 14th to the 19th centuries and which has developed the form of an elongated prism crowned with domes of various forms covering a wide range of premises. A double conical dome, which resting on a cylindrical drum above the well, highlights the silhouette of the building.
