To Bukhara, this is the vast universe

If you want to talk about the most special mosque in Bukhara, it must be the Bolo-Khauz Mosque. Although the Islamic ancient buildings in Uzbekistan are very beautiful, after a few days of continuous viewing, it is actually easy to get aesthetic fatigue. · When I came out of the Yak Castle, I was attracted by the Bolo-Khauz Mosque at first sight. Although it is not as huge as the Kalon Mosque, the exquisite details and different colors are indeed different from the other mosques I have seen before. · Bolo Hauz originally means above the cistern, so Bolo Hauz Mosque is the mosque above the pond. In front of this mosque built in 1718, there is indeed a reservoir now, but the water quality is a bit worrying, reflecting the green tone, but it still reflects the reflection of the temple, which is a rare sight in Central Asia. · The real special feature is the 20 huge wooden carved pillars at the entrance archway. You know, in Uzbekistan and even in Central Asia, wood is much more valuable than stone and bricks, let alone 20 such tall wooden pillars, which is as rare as the status of Phoebe in our country. · If you look closely at these wooden pillars, although they have been eroded by hundreds of years, the exquisite carvings are still shocking, especially the stalactite-shaped arches, which are carved in colors other than traditional blue, which is very pleasing to the eye. · What makes it impossible to move is the caisson, unlike the application of dragons in Chinese ancient buildings, the caisson in Uzbekistan is like the universe, looking up, it is star-like brilliance, rippling in the vastness. · 🏞️Name | Bolo-Khauz Mosque 🎫Ticket | Free ⛳Address | Bolo-Khauz Mosque, Bukhara, Bukhara Region, Uzbekistan
