Namazgoh Mosque, Religious monument in south-west Bukhara, Uzbekistan.
The Namazgoh Mosque features a 38-meter-long brick wall and contains a richly decorated mihrab with mosaic and alabaster geometric patterns.
The original structure dates to 1119 under Arslan Khan's rule, with subsequent modifications during the Qarakhanid and Timurid periods from 1370 to 1506.
The mosque served as an essential gathering place for religious festivals like Kurban-bairam and Ramazan-bairam, where communal prayers and sacrifices occurred.
Located on the outskirts of Bukhara, the mosque now functions primarily as a historical site rather than an active religious center.
The mihrab contains intricate Arabic inscriptions combined with geometric designs, demonstrating the architectural techniques of medieval Central Asian craftsmen.
