Bibi Chan (Bibi-Khanym Mosque) is one of the largest and most awe-inspiring mosques in Central Asia. Commissioned by the legendary conqueror Timur (Tamerlane) after his Indian campaign in 1399, the mosque was built on the foundations of an older structure and dramatically expanded to reflect his imperial ambitions. Named after his beloved wife Saray Mulk Khanum, the mosque features a colossal courtyard, towering minarets, and a breathtaking dome that rises 40 meters high. At its peak, it could host up to 10,000 worshippers. Despite centuries of decay and earthquakes, the mosque has been beautifully restored and remains a masterpiece of Timurid architecture.

Gur-e-Amir Mausoleum, Samarkand, Uzbekistan 🇺🇿 The Gur-e-Amir Mausoleum is a stunning example of Timurid architecture, known for its intricate tilework and majestic dome. The name "Gur-e-Amir" translates to "Tomb of the King," and it serves as the final resting place of the great conqueror Timur, also known as Tamerlane, and his descendants. The mausoleum's most striking feature is its fluted, sky-blue dome, which is adorned with patterns of rosettes and a gilded pinnacle. The interior is just as magnificent, with walls decorated with gold leaf, painted muqarnas, and marble panels, creating an atmosphere of reverence and grandeur. Constructed in the early 15th century, the mausoleum was initially built for Timur's beloved grandson, Muhammad Sultan, who died unexpectedly. Timur later had the crypts of his sons and grandsons moved to the site, and he himself was buried there in 1405. The complex also includes a madrasa and a khanaka, though only their foundations.

What architectural beauty is particularly outstanding here? Be careful that your mouth doesn't end up full of flies.
