Completely worn down and still heavily damaged by the 1992 earthquake, the Al Maridani mosque shows its beauty for whom takes the time to discover it. As a bonus, the view from the roof and the minaret is fabulous.
Walls are crumbling, wooden panels with fading Arabic calligraphy are cracking, holy books and other items are just deposited on the floor or in cupboards put in alcoves. Having a second look and taking some time to discover more, makes you realize soon that Al Maridani mosque is actually very beautiful, but unfortunately apparently neglected. Wooden panels on the walls and the ceiling betray intricate decorations and colours, and in one restored part, you can see how it could look: bright colours and elegant calligraphy depicting Quranic inscriptions on a band running on stone all around the top of the wall. The stained glass windows, with geometrical design, light up with the late afternoon sunlight falling in, giving a warm light inside the mosque. This gem, not frequented by visitors, was finished in 1340 by Altunbugha al Maridani, with the architect Mu'allim bin al-Suyufi.
