Chor Minor

-

 Hello everyone ☺️🥰.

How are you? 

Today our seventh practice day at historical places. We went today Chor Minor monument. 


Chor Minor is majestic mosque. Chor Minor  alternatively known as the Madrasah of Khalif Niyaz-kul, is a historic gatehouse for a now-destroyed madrasa in the historic city of Bukhara, Uzbekistan. It is located in a lane northeast of the Lyab-i Hauz complex. The name of the monument means "four minarets", referring to the building's four towers.



The towers of Chor Minor are not minarets. Three of them were used for storage, and one has a staircase leading to the top floor. All of them are topped by domes covered by blue ceramic tiles.[3] Each of four towers have different deco rational motifs. Some say that elements of decoration reflect the four religions known to Central Asians. One can find elements reminiscent of a cross, a Christian fish motif, and a Buddhist praying-wheel, in addition to Zoroastrian and Islamic motifs. 



Dear readers,

Please give your feedback,☺️🥰.

See you soon, Bye.

 Hello everyone 🌝🤗. How is your mood? How are you?  I'm going to share my expression on practice historical monuments. Today we went Boboyi Porado'z mosque.  It was very interesting and exciting place. I liked it.  Before I never heard about this place. But today I saw it. We walked around the monument. This is The Boboyi Porado'z mosque's picture. Boboyi Porado'z is a name. Boboyi Poradoz was born in Bukhara in 842 and died in 925. He lived 83 years. Sources say "Shavqi Baba erdi bilsang, real name is Poradoz". The reason for this is said to be that he lived with the love of God. That's why they called the sharif breed "Boboyi Shavqi". Dear friends,  Please give your feedback.☺️☺️🥰🥰 Good bye, till next blog👋👋

Turki Jandiy🌿

Hello everyone 🌝🤗. How are you? I would like to tell you about my expression on our Practice day. Today eighth Practice day. We went Turki Jandiy mosque.  This unrestored mausoleum lies just south of the city's main tourist zone, on the east side of Nomozgokh Street which leads eventually to the Namazgah Mosque. The exact age of the structure is uncertain, but Badr and Tupev note that unpublished excavation reports from 1971-72 suggest the current edifice was constructed in the mid-16th century, with evidence of three other building periods, two earlier and one later. From an architectural perspective the building's prominent dome set upon a tall drum is indicative of Timurid-era architecture and recalls the Mir-i-Arab Madrassa (likely a contemporary structure) and the far earlier Gur-e-Amir Mausoleum in Samarkand (c. 1403-04). The interior of the mausoleum is unfortunately off-limits to visitors due to its poor structural condition—the main dome is cracked and may be in dang
