Uzbekistan, Buchara, Naqshbandi memorial

In the suburbs of Buchara there stands an architectual memorial to the great Sufi, hermit, Sheikh Bahoudin Naqshbandi. Numerous pilgrims are visiting his grave. A triple pilgrimage to his tomb is treated equal to a small hajj to Mecca.

A perfect POV to capture the very ornate ceiling. Also, the light and shadow from the window are excellent. V.
