In Tashkent is located Juma Mosque of Hodja Akhrar. It is mosque with courtyard type that was built here in the 17-18 centuries.
The main building has a cubic shape and covered by the dome. In a low drum cut out four small windows. On the east wall, which faces the courtyard, is a large arch. Arch niches located at the inlet opening and they have the form of a lancet.
In the 9th century the Arabs conquered the ancient Zoroastrian Tashkent. City then called Chach. Madrasah was built in 1451 opposite the main entrance on the north side. It was a modest, one-story and to this day has not been preserved. In 1954 it was dismantled for restoration bricks to neighboring buildings.
Tashkent is often affected by earthquakes and numerous ancient buildings sometimes strike from disaster. Friday mosque was restored too often. In the 18th century, during the astounding growth of the Tashkent state, the main cube was thoroughly rebuilt, as well as vaulted galleries with cells around a courtyard.
