Pepper Ticks And Cats

first and 2 March 2011, Bukhara, 213, 214

second March Bukhara

Even if 12 degrees is much better than minus five degrees, we found it pretty cold and warm are glad we can be in the kitchen. After breakfast we go to internet cafe (electricity and heating) and then buy. Luckily the sun in the lee already really warm, so we can drink tea in the sun on our balcony before we go out. are settling back to our many men on the roof, but this time with new cables and they seem to have a plan. It saw off electricity poles and there are always more cables. So we go in good spirits and hope for a heater in the evening. Our guide us is sending today to the great minaret and the adjacent buildings: a mosque and a madrasa . The Mosque and Minaret, the symbol of Bukhara and simply beautiful. We spend some time in the courtyard of the mosque and on the forecourt, but may enter unfortunately not in the madrasa. It has been 400 years as a theological Bildungsort in operation and we see a lot of students going for a walk with books in hand in the courtyard.

return after a further change by the city, we returned and there is live! So we can warm up the room again and take more time because dinner is not by candlelight. Bukhara has so many architectural treasures on a spot that we are happy to look at the time each day to a few. Of the proposed 29, we are after all, already at number eight!

first March Bukhara

Today it is warm and warmer and in fact the sun is already quite strong in the morning. We just want to break into a walk as the first city power fails. Abdul tells us that happen often and is resolved by the afternoon. The entire city is one big construction site and the lines are replaced. There is everything from torn-and what is not equivalent to the original structure. The demolition will happen even with an excavator, but otherwise it's all hand work. Therefore, although all covered with inch thick dust but it is not loud. We walk to the Citadel again and enjoy the harmonious beauty of the city and its residents in a variety of garments. The Citadel is a building site but we still get an idea of the architecture and build of a very different kind of mosque. There are also rectangular wooden buildings. We reject the offer (the delivered) to rise from any part of the view opens to the city because we see so much. Opposite the citadel is a beautiful mosque, too, again with wooden pillars and an impressive wood ceiling. is before a big mosque Water basin and around the shops and restaurants are preparing for spring.

We walk to the nearest park, which was actually a cemetery and is now a park with amusement. In him the grave of the Samanids be seen. The building is unique in its architecture and beautiful. We stay a while for the diversity of the fired bricks are and see us at the Job's Fountain. There should have struck Job with a staff of water from the soil. The opposite modern building fits well into the ensemble. Then we go to the bazaar, the very different looks like the bazaars we have ever seen and is mainly made of fabric stores. Here is a colorful, shrillness of substances to admire in one place. We walk back and find that this is not the current is so easy. After a stay in an internet cafe (with electricity and heating), we enjoy dinner with another guest together by candlelight. After that, we are glad to our sleeping bags as the temperature drops rapidly.
