O
Rýchle fakty: Three madrasas surround the square and their blue domes shift in color depending on the time of day. Over 6 million visitors annually are drawn here by the spectacular symmetry and the hand-painted tile work.
Zaujímavosti: When the sun goes down, the lighting is turned on and the entire square transforms into a sea of golden and blue shades. Each tile is handmade and placed according to geometric patterns that mathematicians still study.
Insiderské tipy
- Climb up to one of the madrasah terraces for the best photo of the square.
- Avoid midday when the sun is directly overhead and creates harsh shadows.
- Bring cash as some smaller shops inside the madrasahs do not accept cards.
- Visit on weekdays before 10 AM to avoid crowds.
