Kukeldash Madrasah, Tashkent

The Kukeldash Madrasah is a medieval madrasah built around 1570 by the Shaybanid Dynasty of rulers. The madrasah was converted into a caravanserai in the 18th century, then it served as a fortress. In the 20th century it was a museum, first of atheism, and later of folk music. In the 1990s, the building was again made a madrasah (Islamic school).

Again, beautiful and historic architecture. Tim is certainly on the scenic circuit and I appreciate both what he does, and the fantastic images along the way. I envy the latter, but the former is definitely not for the faint of heart. BV

It is interesting that tiles are such a big part of the architecture there.
