Juma Mosque still looks historical and relevant to Shamakhi although the multiple renovations made it lose some of its historical features. That was quite many renovations for a mosque who stood for generations and generation. Well, it was for sure for the sake of its structural stability. The architecture is still great from outside to the interior. Your photographs captured the soul of the mosque.

This one looks stunning and it takes a creative eye to see the pattern there.

And this shelf looks like calling all fairy stories warrior to read it. I am one of them. I wonder how fairy stories are told in your country and culture. For sure it is interesting and valuable. Thank you for sharing this @grindle ❤️
