Magok-i-Attari Mosque
Najbolje vrijeme za posjet
It is worth coming in the early afternoon, when the sun lights up the brick pattern of the southwestern facade from directly in front. In winter, almost no one comes here; in summer, the deep inner courtyard offers a cool refuge from the midday heat.
Savjeti za budžet
The facade with its special brick pattern can be viewed completely free of charge from the outside, and you can see most of the sights here from the outside. Its inner courtyard is usually closed to tourists, but with a ticket for the neighboring carpet museum (about 20,000 sum) they sometimes let you in.

O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Građevina iz 12. stoljeća nekoć je bila zoroastrijski hram, zatim sinagoga, prije nego što je postala džamija. Značenje njezina imena je "džamija jame", jer se njezin ulaz nalazi više od 4 metra ispod današnje razine ulice.
Istaknuto: Opečni ukras koji krasi jugozapadno pročelje džamije toliko je pomno izrađen da se među 800 godina starim glinenim opekama ne vidi niti jedan sloj žbuke. U iskopu dubokom 10 metara ispod ulaza pronađeni su poganski simboli plodnosti i golemi kostur goveda od 4 metra, koji svjedoče o više tisuća godina dugačkoj sakralnoj prošlosti građevine.
Insajderski savjeti
- Look for the 12-meter-high carved wooden columns on the facade: they have blackened over the centuries, but their decoration is still sharp today.
- To the right of the entrance, at the base of the wall, you can see ancient Sogdian carvings in a small recess.
- Do not approach from the main entrance, but start on foot from the Lyab-i Hauz pool: in the narrow alleyway, the sunken facade suddenly appears before you unexpectedly.
- From the terrace of the teahouse opposite, you can take a perfect photo of the entire mosque in the afternoon light.
