Dzhuma Mosque, Religious sanctuary in central Tashkent, Uzbekistan

The interior hall of Dzhuma Mosque contains 213 wooden columns that support the structure, creating a forest-like arrangement throughout the space.

Sheikh Ubaydullo Khoja Akhror established the Dzhuma Mosque in 1451, marking the beginning of a major religious center in the capital city.

The mosque maintains traditional Islamic architectural elements with its geometric patterns and plant motifs carved into the wooden pillars and doors.

Four separate entrances allow worshippers to access the mosque from different directions, while ceiling openings provide natural light and ventilation.

The black and red painted spaces between windows display trees, bushes, and iris flowers, incorporating local artistic traditions into religious architecture.
