Baku, Azerbaijan

A mosque with high minaret is located on the south of the Shah's family tomb. There is a small balcony at the top of the minaret, where the muezzin went up several times a day and called the devout for prayer. The XV century palace mosque has three gates. The main door on the north side differs for its portal. The portal of the middle courtyard door is more simplified; however, the door on the west has no portal. The mosque's decor is very simple; in the smooth wall, there are small windows of stone decorative patterns and niches to put a lamp.
