The Baland Mosque

Baland mosque is in Bukhara. On a stone foundation, the Guzor quarterly mosque was erected. It has the form of a cube. There is a courtyard inside the mosque and an aivan with wooden pillars. In addition, the word "baland" means "high".

The panel of the mosque has a full series of frames of right-angled form. However, they fill the mosaic paintings.
The walls of the Baland mosque were decorated with panels in a lancet form. They are filled with colored frames. In addition, there are lines for writing and frames that wonderfully harmonize each other.

The low ceiling was made from wood. Despite the use of simple materials, the ceiling was created using a difficult manufacturing method. It was adored with engraved pans in the style of stars.

Panels of the madrasah have six-sided bars with gold-filled writings.

All the decorations and interior of the Baland mosque were professionally realized by talented masters of that period. In addition, today, it has no match in the Bukhara region.
