Nabi Jirjis Complex/Shrine - Islamic Cities (sitios de interés)

Descripción del sitio

This seems to be the Timurid complex, dating to 1393, that includes a small shrine dedicated to Nabi Jerjis (the saint/prophet George). (Indeed, this measures out to be 4.7 m x 4.7 m, exactly the measurements listed in my source, so this is IT! I've been looking hard for this!)

This tomb chamber is small, measuring 4.7 on each side and topped with a dome with ribs visible from the outside. The interior surfaces are severely damaged. Its walls are covered with green and yellow glazed brick tiles to the height of two meters and are surmounted by a Quranic inscription band.
