[Bukhara] My favorite madrasah [Uzbekistan]

There are many beautiful Islamic buildings in Uzbekistan, but I would like to introduce my favorite madrasah 😸

Nadir Divan Begi Madrasah

The mosaics here are so cute that anything you do will look great! (I think) lol

Islam is against idolatry, so it is rare to see animals depicted, but this is a very rare madrasah (theological school) that goes against the teachings of Islam, with two phoenixes, a deer, and a human face depicted 🤓✏️

Unfortunately, I couldn't go inside, probably because I went on a Friday 🥲
*In Islam, Friday is considered the day of collective prayer, so it is often a day off in Islamic countries.

Lyabi Khause Square, the pond in the center of the old town, just opposite the madrasah, is also lovely😍

There are terraces of restaurants around, so it looks like a great place to relax☺️
