Friday Mosque (Juma Mosque)

The minaret is well regarded, thanks to its unique decor and its incompleteness. The Kalta-minor is a unique minaret completely covered with glazed tile and majolica. It was commissioned in 1851 by Mohammed Amin Khan, the ruler of Khiva, as an architectural marvel intended to rise over 70 metres.
