Descripción del sitio
The Friday Mosque is very unique mosque due to the wide variety of architectural and cultural art forms which can be found within it. The Mosque was built during the 11th century, however, many changes and additions were made over the next thousand years. The mosque was partially destroyed several times including most recently during the Iraqi air raids. The wide range of design can be seen in the 15th century tile work, the 12th century structural expansions, or even through the 14th century decorations which fill the mosque. The large courtyard, which spans 65 meter by 76 meters, is probably the mosque’s most famous expansion. In this courtyard, which contains a large marble reflection pool, is believed to contain architecture from every Iranian age.
