Bukhara
View from the front of Mir-i-Arab Madrasah, 1535, Bukhara, Uzbekistan, pictured on July 11, 2010 in the afternoon. The Mir-i Arab Madrasah, which stands opposite the Kalyan Mosque was built by the Shaybany Ubaydallah Khan, and is still a functioning madrasah. It has a traditional four courtyard plan with student cells behind the double-height courtyard arcades. Bukhara, a city on the Silk Route is about 2500 years old. Its long history is displayed both through the impressive monuments and the overall town planning and architecture. Picture by Manuel Cohen
