Apanayıf Mosque, 18th-century mosque in Kazan, Russia.
The Apanayıf Mosque exhibits traditional Islamic architecture with two minarets reaching toward the sky and decorative elements across its white exterior walls.
Construction of the mosque began in 1768, and after three years of meticulous work, it opened its doors to worshippers in 1771.
The mosque functions as a gathering space for Kazan's Muslim community, maintaining religious traditions through daily prayers and educational programs.
Visitors need to remove shoes before entering the prayer hall and women must cover their heads with scarves provided at the entrance.
The mosque interior features intricate Tatar craftsmanship patterns that combine geometric designs with traditional Islamic calligraphy on its walls.
