This time I want to share a few pix from a city about 4 hours south of us. It hosts a spectacular mausoleum with the most exquisite tile work! Enjoy!

The inside is pretty plain, but very much alive, in the sense that it is a very active place of "worship". In fact, the people here believe that going here 3 times substitutes for going to Mecca!
The little person at the bottom gives you some perspective in how immense this place really is!!


The writing is Arabic, in case you were wondering :)


All handpainted these are!
Until next time,
