The Mosque Of Amir Altinbugha Al-Maridani
The Mosque of Amir Altinbugha al-Maridani, dating from 1340 CE, is a mosque from the era of the Mamluk Sultanate of Cairo, Egypt. Located south of Bab Zuweila, in the Darb al-Ahmar neighbourhood, it is being built by Amir Altinbugha al-Maridani, with significant help from Sultan al-Nasir Muhammad. The mosque is having a hypostyle plan similar to the Mosque of al-Nasir, and its exterior walls are being decorated in typical Mamluk architecture style. At the time of its building, it is one of the most extravagantly decorated mosques in Cairo, marked by the first fully octagonal minaret and large dome, as well as other architectural innovations, in Cairo, Egypt, on July 28, 2024.
