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 The exact age of the structure is uncertain, but Badr and Tupev note that unpublished excavation reports from 1971-72 suggest the current edifice was constructed in the mid-16th century, with evidence of three other building periods, two earlier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 danger of collapse. Originally it would have been clad in turquoise tiles, but none of these survive.

Deep in the old town is the tiny and decrepit Turki Jandi mausoleum, favoured for getting one’s prayers answered. Turki Jandi’s tomb is accessed through the mosque in front of the taller, second cupola. A well inside the mosque contains holy water that locals drink from a cooler near the entrance. Have the chatty mullah show you the sections of original 10th-century Arabic script on the mosque’s doors, allegedly inscribed by Turki Jandi himself.

This is about the legend of Turki Jandiy. 

Turki Jandiy is very attractive. Our coursemates spoke about it. They gave information to us, which is very useful. 

Good bye dears,
