Orbita Mosque (Haji Ahmed Yasawi Mosque)

Information

The mosque consists of two spacious prayer halls, in addition to which it has the second and basement floors, where there are rooms for prayer and for conducting educational classes on the basics of Islam. Both externally and internally, the mosque looks very strict and concise, combining simplicity and grandeur. Interesting interior solutions, a pleasant color scheme, which does not irritate the eyes and does not distract from prayer, are used in the decoration of the interior. The lamp looks a little strange in the daylight. There are traditional details of Muslim mosques – crystal chandelier, carpet on the floor, white columns.

The exterior of the mosque attracts attention in that, in addition to the large dome, it has three smaller domes, which are located in the western part of the mosque and are practically invisible from the street. The courtyard of the mosque is not particularly large (there was enough territory in a densely built-up area), therefore, on Fridays, numerous parishioners completely fill its entire space.
