Olim Dodkhokh Complex

TIME : 2016/2/17 16:41:04

On cold Friday lunchtimes, dozens of older men with flowing white beards, turbans, upturned boots and swishing purple/green irridescent joma robes make their way to prayers at this mosque-madrassa complex opposite the bazaar. Though mostly a contemporary rebuild, its origins are 14th-century. The best view is from Mafsemi Chaikhana upstairs opposite the Shokhrukh samsa shop (Rudaki 154).
