Message from Graziano e Federica

Po-i-Kalyan is an Islamic religious complex in Bukhara, Uzbekistan, made up of the Kalan Mosque, the Kalan Minaret, and the Mir-i-Arab Madrasah. The complex, built in the 12th and 16th centuries, forms a square courtyard with impressive architectural features like the grand minaret, ornate mosque, and spiritual madrasah. Legend has it that Genghis Khan mistook the mosque for a palace due to its magnificence. Today, Po-i-Kalyan stands as a symbol of Bukhara's rich history and cultural heritage, attracting visitors from around the world.
