The friday mosque in Herat.


The mosque is probably the most beautiful mosque in Afghanistan, if not Central Asia.
The style, clearly, resembles the one used on the Taj Mahal and it shouldn't be a surprise that the Taj Mahal's style, in fact, was based on the styles used for the mosques in Herat and Mazar.
