Summary
| Description | Juma Mosque, the general name of so-called “Friday” mosques in the Muslim East, dates from the 10th Century when it was the biggest building in Khiva. The mosque was rebuilt in 1778-1782. The unusual interior is like a column museum. Some of the 212 karagacha (black elm) pillars are recycled rescues from ancient constructions, including as far back as the dying Khwarezmian capital of Kath in the 10th Century. |
