Magoki Attori Mosque, Bukhara

Visit the oldest masjid in Central Asia, which was originally a Zoroastrian temple before being converted into a mosque.

The mosque has a fascinating history of being submerged underground for many years, which adds to its charm.

This mosque is known as the 'underground mosque' because it has been partially submerged in dirt and sand for centuries.

Take note of the mosque's unique position, as it is five meters lower than surrounding buildings due to its historical significance.

The mosque's facade is nearly intact, providing a glimpse into its historical significance despite its weathered state.

Inside the mosque, there's a carpet museum that adds to the cultural experience.
