      Every time I see the calligraphy and intricate details of Islamic architecture, I’m reminded of just how short my attention span is. Can’t imagine carving all of that.

    This Minaret features heavily in a book by British Politician Rory Stewart, “The Places in Between” He also started a non-profit to try and preserve the culture and traditions of the local area. It’s a very interesting book, I highly suggest reading it.

    The Graveyard of Empires would regularly top my countries to visit if I could guarantee my safety… and had the disposable cash.
