The Bolo Haouz Mosque in Bukhara, Uzbekistan, is a historic mosque built in 1712. It's rectangular in shape and has a prayer room with four columns for winter and a 20-pillared hall for summer prayers. The mosque features colorful muqarnas decorations on its columns and a small minaret built in 1917. It's part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site list and served as a Friday mosque during the Bolshevik Russian rule in the 1920s. Overall, it's a cool spot with a mix of traditional Central Asian architecture and unique design elements.
