Magok-i-Kurpa Mosque
Magok-i-Kurpa Mosque, Islamic mosque in Old City, Bukhara, Uzbekistan
The Magok-i-Kurpa Mosque features twelve domes, with the main dome reaching 20 meters high and supported by a cylindrical drum structure.
Built in 1637, this mosque forms part of the Historic Centre of Bukhara, located 250 meters southwest of Po-i-Kalyan and 10 meters west of Toqi Telpak Furushon.
The mosque represents traditional Islamic design principles through its rectangular layout measuring 15 by 24 square meters, incorporating Persian architectural elements.
Visitors can access both levels of the mosque, including the lower floor positioned below ground level, which explains the name Magok-i meaning 'in the hole'.
The structure contains two distinct floors with the lower section built underground, differentiating it from other regional mosques of the same period.
