Lala Tulpan

Lala Tulpan is a mosque in Ufa featuring eight minarets, white walls, and blue domes shaped like opening tulip buds. The structure combines Islamic architectural traditions with regional design elements.

Built between 1989 and 1998, the structure emerged as religious freedom returned to Russia after the Soviet era. It marks the beginning of a new chapter for Islamic life in the region.

The mosque serves as a gathering place for Muslims from the region and offers space for worship and learning. The tulip motif in its design connects Islamic tradition with local symbolism.

The site welcomes visitors during regular hours with guided tours available to explore the interior and architecture. Appropriate clothing is expected, and checking visiting arrangements in advance is recommended.

The eight minarets feature curved forms that intentionally echo the outline of tulip flowers. This botanical reference is uncommon in religious architecture and gives the building a distinctive local character.
