Zangiota Zam-Zam Spring is a revered natural spring near Tashkent, associated with the 12th-century Sufi sheikh Zangi Ota whose mausoleum nearby is among the most important pilgrimage sites in Uzbekistan, and whose iodine-rich waters are considered sacred within local Islamic tradition. The spring's name invokes the holy Zamzam well of Mecca, reflecting the deep integration of Sufi spiritual tradition and the veneration of thermal waters in Central Asian Islam. The mausoleum complex, a place of active pilgrimage particularly for women seeking blessings, makes Zangiota a site of living spiritual and cultural significance in contemporary Uzbekistan.
