2 xta day #4

 Hi guys. We are extremely excited about this journey. Our today's distance has been Mosque Magaki Attari. We went there with our group and our teacher Matluba Ahmedovna. 



Before the Arab conquest there was a bazaar on the site of Maghoki Attori. It was a market for idols, potions and spices – attar (perfumes) and other goods. Besides this, there was formerly a Temple of the Moon (Mah) close to this place. Narshakhi, in his History of Bukhara, named the mosque built on the site of the former temple "maghākī", ie "in a pit", because even then half of it was concealed from view by the rising soil level . That was interesting.



Before the construction of the first synagogue Jews had shared a place in a mosque with Muslims. This mosque was called Masjed-e Maghākī-ye Attārī ​​(see picture), ie "the mosque in a pit in the perfume market💄


That was my today's experience guys. Thank you for your attention ☺️ 👀👀
