Leyla Aliyeva and Alena Aliyeva visited the Shah Abbas Mosque in Ganja
Leyla Aliyeva and Alena Aliyeva visited the Shah Abbas Mosque in Ganja.
As reported by BAKU.WS, the mosque was built in 1606 by order of the Safavid ruler Shah Abbas I based on the design of architect Sheikh Bahauddin Muhammad Amili. This monument, located in the center of Ganja, embodies the portal-dome traditions of medieval Azerbaijani architecture, with concise and expressive artistic and structural features.
At the conclusion, Leyla Aliyeva and Alena Aliyeva were presented with a Holy Quran as a gift.
It should be noted that the mosque was restored in 2008 at the initiative of President Ilham Aliyev.
