The Sakhi Shrine is one of the more beautiful and artistic of mosques. With its bright colours and popular status as a hangout spot for all the people of Kabul, this mosque stands out a lot.

The Sakhi Shrine is not without its own bloody past, as are most things in Kabul. Due to its popularity.   The shrine is located at the foot of the Asmayi Hill, now better known as Television Hill. To its north and west is the Sakhi Cemetery. the Shrine has been targeted during the wars and even after it by terrorists. There have been numerous shootings in the mosque, but thankfully none of them have proven successful to remove the mosque as one of the hotspots of the city. The mosque, due to its unusual design and colours, is also popular with all the tourists, because whenever tourists see or think about a mosque, they picture a bland white building that is beautiful solely because of the architecture. Sakhi Shrine continues to prove them wrong and capture the minds and hearts of locals and tourists alike. The shine is also popular for young Afghanis to come and take lots of pictures there, or to relax on the cool marble floors of the Shrine.

The shrine is decorated with glazed tiles in a neo-Safavid Persian style. The building bears many inscriptions, including dedicatory texts, Qurʾanic excerpts, prayers, Hadith, and poetry. A second dome was added to the shrine by the mother of Amanullah Khan in 1919. The four additional domes were added during renovations which took place between 2008 and 2016.
