While walking in this magical place, I felt the hot atmosphere, but as if the time stood still...and I was suddenly in another world. It was amazing view, so tall walls with color of clay and sand, a huge historical monument. So impressive minarets, and art on the arcs and walls. It was obviously reconstructed, but seems the work still continued. Moving between all place, the courtyard, the walls, the passages under arcs with nice lanterns -- فانوس. The feeling is amazing, that you are separated from the outside world, and captivated in another reality, without limits. No people were there and little sounds came from outside...There was a view to "Al A`la" the great mosque.
Before I reached to this amazing place, followed by group of children I made a photo of them...They look so funny, as they were excited to see foreigner in this place.
