It was discovered in 1831 in a walled courtyard on the top of a hill in Nasirabad. At the foot of Shrine Hill is a three-domed Mughal-style rectangular mosque and a huge Dighi. Many believe that the tomb of Bayezid Bostami is located here. At the foot of the shrine is a vast lake with Bostami's turtles and Gojar fish as its well-known inhabitants. Locally they are called Mazari and Ghazari. Bostami's tortoise is an internationally recognized extremely rare and critically endangered species. They are not seen anywhere else in the world except in the Shrine of Bayazid Bostami.

Its shrine area as a complex consists of a tomb surrounded by a brick structure along with an old mosque and a large pond.

The whole complex is located on a hillock of Nasirabad, considered to be a holy place and attracts a large number of visitors and pilgrims daily.
